Although September's job 36 was stronger than most economists were expecting, it is still not growing fast enough for the millions of Americans 37 for work.In many U.S. cities, frustration over the scarcity〔供不应求〕 of jobs is spilling out into the streets in the 38 of protests, like the "Jobs Not Cuts" rally in Washington.Many, including rapper Godfrey James, say lawmakers are not doing enough to help 39 Americans.Experts say hiring is likely to remain weak for the remainder of the year as companies wait for the economy to 40In New York, where the "Occupy Wall Street" movement appears to be gaining momentum〔势头〕, activists say the richest one percent own most of the country's wealth."I feel like the middle class has been almost completely 41 now.

Republicans, who see the economy as the 43 weakness, have blocked many of his initiatives〔提案〕 and are 44 to approve the package of tax cuts and public spending.But small business owner Dave Finnegan says Americans need to remind politicians who's 45 in charge."This is how things get done," said Finnegan. "That building, the Capitol building is only a place where they vote on stuff, it's not a place where things originate. Things 46 with people in the street. This is a democracy and it has to start here."While better than expected job numbers last month have helped calm fears of a new recession〔不景气〕, the nation's chronic high unemployment is expected to be a major issue in .

By making computers personal 50. putting the internet in our pockets, he made the information revolution not only accessible, but intuitive and fun. And by turning his talents to storytelling, he has brought joy to millions of children and grownups 51. .

And there may be 54. greater tribute to Steve’s success than the fact that 55. of the world learned of his passingon a device he invented.Part Ⅲ Reading Comprehension 〔30 marks〕Directions： Read the following passages．Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements．For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D．Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage．AWhen their parents were children, they imagined a future standing in front of a class of pupils or doing the rounds as a doctor．But today's British teenagers, a survey suggests, seem to have set their sights only on becoming the next Leona Lewis or Wayne Rooney．Researchers questioned 3,000 teenagers about their ambitions and also asked parents about their youthful career hopes．According to the survey, youngsters dream of a celebrity lifestyle, perhaps after finding fame through shows such as the X Factor, and of being actors or sports stars．Copying the likes of Rooney and David Beckham was the top career ambition of today's teenagers, cited by 12 percent．Almost as many, 11 percent, wanted to be pop stars, and the same proportion dreamed of being actors．The success of celebrity chefs such as Jamie Oliver and Gordon Ramsay is likely to explain why becoming a chef is now the dream of 5 percent, a career ambition which did not figure in the list of 25 years ago．A quarter of a century back teaching was the top career choice, cited by 15 percent．These days the job is chosen by only 4 percent．Of the traditional professions, only law has risen in popularity．The survey also suggests that more girls dream of becoming doctors and boys want careers as astronauts or firefighters．Child psychologist Laverne Antrobus said the findings reflect today's celebrity culture and warned children against unrealistic dreams．"Children see footballers, pop stars and actors on TV and their lives look exciting, glamorous and fun," she said．"It is hard for them to realize that they are the end product of a lot of ingredients including talent, determination and years of hard work．Wayne Rooney is not on the pitch by chance．"As Antrobus pointed out, there is absolutely nothing wrong with children having big dreams, but "these have to be based on reality," she said．56pop stars and actors．A．have the talent of B．work as hard asC．enjoy the celebrity lifestyles of D．become successful by chance like 57．Which of the following statements is TRUE?A．12 percent of British teenagers surveyed wanted to become chefs．B．22 percent of British teenagers surveyed wanted to be pop stars or actors．C．None of the traditional professions are favored by today's British teenagers, the survey suggests．D．Teaching, though less popular, seems to remain one of the top career choices on the list．58．According to child psychologist Laverne Antrobus, the change in career ambitions suggested by the study .A．represents progress B．mirrors today’s celebrity cultureC．shows how materialistic youngsters are D．suggests British teenagers watch too much TV59．What does the underlined sentence "Wayne Rooney is not on the pitch by chance．"mean?A．Wayne Rooney does not get to play much today．B．Wayne Rooney didn't get into sport by chance．C．Wayne Rooney doesn't believe in luck when he is playing．D．Wayne Rooney didn't become successful by luck．60．The expert quoted in the article believes ______．A．there's no point in teenagers having dreamsB．it is wrong to desire to live the life of a celebrityC．young Britons have the same ambitions as their parentsD．children should set practical goals when they think of their careerBThe past ages of man have all been carefully labeled by anthropologists 〔人类学家〕．Descriptions like "Palaeolithic〔旧石器时代的〕Man" ．"Neolithic〔新石器时代的〕Man" ,etc．，neatly sum up whole periods．When the time comes for anthropologists to turn their attention to the twentieth century, they will surelychoose the label" Legless Man"．Histories of the time will go something like this: "in the twentieth century, people forgot how to use their legs．Men and women moved about in cars, buses and trains from a very early age．There were lifts in all large buildings to prevent people from walking．And the surprising thing is that they didn't use their legs even when they went on holiday．"The future history books might also record that we were deprived of the use of our eyes．In our hurry to get from one place to another, we failed to see anything on the way．Air travel gives you a bird's-eye view of the world．When you travel by car or train, an unclear picture of the countryside constantly smears the windows．Car drivers, especially, are mixed with the urge to go on and on: they never want to stop．The typical twentieth-century traveler is the man who always says" I've been there．"You mention the remotest, and someone is bound to say "I've been there"—meaning, "I drove through it at 100 miles an hour on the way to somewhere else．"When you travel at high speeds, the present means nothing: you live mainly in the future because you spend most of your time looking forward to arriving at some other place．But actual arrival, when it is achieved, is meaningless．You want to move on again．By traveling like this, you suspend all experience．The traveler on foot, on the other hand, lives constantly in the present．For him traveling and arriving are one and the same thing: he arrives somewhere with every step he makes．He experiences the present moment with his eyes, his ears and the whole of his body．At the end of his journey he feels a delicious physical tiredness．He knows that sound, satisfying sleep will be his: the just reward of all true travelers．61．Anthropologists label man nowadays "Legless" because______．A．people forget how to use their legs B．people prefer cars, buses and trainsC．lifts prevent people from walking D．there are a lot of transportation devices62．Travelling at high speed means______．A．people’s focus on the futureB．a pleasureC．satisfying drivers’ great thrillD．a necessity of life63．Why does the author say “we are deprived of the use of our eyes〞?A．People won’t use their eyes.B．In traveling at high speed, eyes become useless.C．People can’t see anything on their way of travel.D．People want to sleep during traveling.64．What does “a bird’s-eye view〞 mean?A．See view with bird’s eyes.B．A bird looks at a beautiful view.C．It is a general view from a high position looking down.D．A scenic place.65．What is the purpose of the author in writing this passage?A．Legs become weaker.B．Modern means of transportation make the world a small place.C．There is no need to use eyes.D．The best way to travel is on foot.CIf you see someone touched on the cheek, and feel as if your own cheek has been touched, then you have mirror-touch synesthesia (共感觉), a condition that causes people to feel the touches that they see others receive.As the name implies, a mirror effect is involved. If a mirror-touch synesthete is standing opposite someone and the non-synesthete is hit in the right arm, the synesthete will feel the blow in his or h er left arm. If the two are standing next to each other, contact with the non-synesthete’s right arm will be felt in the synesthete’s right arm.People with mirror-touch synesthesia have very active mirror neurons(神经细胞) that can produce intense sensations of emotional empathy(同情). Such people can not only imagine the pain of others, but often feel as if it were their own.Besides feeling what others feel, mirror-touch synesthetes are often morally extremely sensitive; many claim to be unable to understand how people can laugh at the misfortunes of others, and to find action and horror movies unbearable to watch.In , Sarah Jane-Blak9emore, a neuroscientist(神经科学家) at University College London, net a 39-year-old woman who confirmed that she could feel contact that she only observed, such as a pinch(掐). She had thought all people were that way; it had never occurred to her that mirror-touch synesthesia was unusual. Researchers later discovered that 11 of the woman’s relatives had another type of synesthesia, known as color-grapheme synesthesia.Recent studies have shed more light on the phenomenon. Researchers have used brain scans, touch tests, and questionnaires to look for mirror-touch synesthesia in 10 subjects. Brain scans have shown that certain areas of the brain are extremely active when mirror-touch synesthetes see someone being touched, while in touch tests they often mistook an observed touch for the one applied to themselves.Learning why some people are highly sensitive to the emotions of others could teach us more about those who aren’t.66．If you’re a mirror-touch synesthete, which of the following best shows the function of the mirror effect in you?A．When you see someone with the broken leg, you try to help.B．When someone hits you on the head, you feel pain.C．When someone touches your left arm, your right arm feels it.D．When someone hits his left leg, your right leg feels it.67．According to the text, what causes mirror-touch synesthesia?A．Mirror neurons. B．A mirror effect. C．emotional empathy.D．Genes.68．All the following of another person can be sensed by a mirror-touch synesthete EXCEPT .A．being touched B．inner feelings C．knowledge D．pain69．Why is the 39-year-old woman mentioned in Paragraph 5?A．Because 11 of her relatives have synesthesia as well.B．Because she can feel pinch she only observes.C．Because Sarah Jane-Blakemore knew her well.D．Because she had never realized she had synesthesia.70．Which of the following statements is TRUE, according to the text?A．We still know little about mirror-touch synesthesia.B．A mirror-touch synesthete is created by horror films.C．Brain scans show the crain is active when touched.D．We can learn about normal people by studying mirror-touch synesthesia. Part IV Writing 〔45 marks〕Section A〔10 marks〕Directions： Read the following passage．Fill in the numbered blanks by using the informationfrom the passage．Write NOMORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer．Stage FrightStage fright is not commonly thought of as a phobia. Officially, it can be recognized as a subset of glossophobia, or fear of public speaking, which is itself a type of social phobia. Many people who perform on a public stage, from kids in school to professional actors, are potentially at risk for stage fright. Even Hollywood lore is filled with tales of performers who have battled with this phobia.People suffering from stage fright have probably dealt with endless questions from family and friends as to why they put themselves through the torment. Two reasons, according to some experts, can account for this phenomenon. First, most performers haven’t had much practice at it. Any unfamiliar activity creates some stress. Second, none of them likes to be evaluated and they dislike the thought of having others examine them too closely.Then, if one suffers from stage fright, what symptoms can be experienced? The phobia generally begins weeks or months before the performance; they may begin to feel jumpy. As the date of the performance draws closer, the symptoms worsen. A few hours before the time when the performers participate in the show, they may meet some problems such as diarrhea(腹泻), and heart palpitations. Both during and after a show, one may even suffer from dry mouth, which is a very annoying problem to have. What’s worse, their hands may shake so much that they can’t read their own notes.It is important to find healthy ways to cope with stage fright. Many performers turn to self-medication, in an effort to dull the pain. This is never a good choice for anyone, because it can turn into a dangerous cycle for those who perform regularly. Like any phobia, stage fright is highly treatable. Many people with stage fright think that their performance will not be “good enough〞, thereby disappointing their audience and ruining their own careers. Therapy can help you learn to replace these negative messages with more rational thoughts and with the help of some therapists you will also be taught relaxation exercises that you can do when the anxiety becomes overwhelming.Stage fright is remarkably common, and many performers never seek help. Treated properly, however, the condition can be successfully managed.Directions： Read the following passage．Answer the questions according to the informationgiven in the passage．Forty-three years seems like a long time to remember the name of a mere acquaintance．I have forgotten the name of an old lady, who was a customer on the paper route in my home town when I was a twelve-year-old boy．Yet it dwells in my memory that she taught me a lesson in forgiveness that I shall never forget．On a winter afternoon, a friend and I were throwing stones onto the slanted roof of the old lady's house from a spot near her backyard．The object of our play was to observe how the stones changed to missiles as they rolled to the roof’s edge and shot out into the yard like comets(彗星) falling from the sky．I found myself a perfectly smooth rock and threw it out．The stone was too smooth, however, so it slipped from my hand as I let it go and headed straight not for the roof but for a small window on the old lady's back porch．At the sound of fractured glass, we knew we were in trouble．We turned tail8〕and ran faster than any of our missiles flew off her roof．I was too scared about getting caught that first night to be concerned about the old lady with the broken window in winter．However, a few days later, when Iwas sure that I hadn't been discovered, I started to feel guilty for her misfortune．She still greeted me with a smile each day when I gave her the paper,but I was no longer able to act comfortable in her presence．I made up my mind that I would save my paper delivery money, and in three weeksI had the seven dollars that I calculated would cover the cost of her window．I putthe money in an envelope with a note explaining that I was sorry for breaking herwindow and hoped that the seven dollars would cover the cost for repairing it．I waited until it was dark, snuck up to the old lady's house, and put the letterI didn't sign through the letter slot in her door．My soul felt redeemed and I couldhave the freedom of, once again, looking straight into the old lady's kind eyes．The next day, I handed the old lady her paper and was able to return the warmsmile that I was receiving from her．She thanked me for the paper and gave me a bagof cookies she had made herself．I thanked her and proceeded to eat the cookies asI continued my route．After several cookies, I felt an envelope and pulled it out of the bag．WhenI opened the envelope, I was stunned．Inside were the seven dollars and a short notethat said, "I'm proud of you．"81.

河北省衡水市枣强县衡水董子高级中学2023-2024学年高三下学期3月月考英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解There are very few countries in the world that don’t have some sort of legend (传说) or connect ion with dragons. Here are some great destinations to get a fi x on dragon.FranceCalais in France has a dragon standing 33 feet tall, 82 feet long, with a wingspan of more than 55 feet. It walks and moves as you would imagine a dragon does, and you can take it for a ride. The Calais dragon is a mechanical wonder, which is nearly too real to be called a fairground creature.WalesIn the UK, you will find a proud dragon country, Wales. Here there is the legend of two dragons: one white and one red. Wales’ tale describes the two dragons fighting and the red one winning, so you will find it difficult to hurry about the country without coming across a red dragon. Dragons are sold in souvenir shops, sit by ancient castles, hang around in King Arthur’s Labyrinth, and are featured on the national flag.NorwayThe Vikings knew a thing or two about dragons. In the lovely film How to Train Your Dragon, they even flew them. But seriously, when you dig into Norway’s Viking history and legends, you will find dragons mentioned everywhere, though not as cute as those in the film. From the figurehead in the Viking Ship Museum to jewelry, and decorations on buildings, be on the lookout for them when visiting Norway.BhutanThe Druk or Thunder Dragon, is the national symbol and appears everywhere. The country is called Land of the Thunder Dragon, or Kingdom of Druk, and it’s part of the national anthem (国歌) and its flag. Despite its fearful name, it’s actually rather cute. The legend has it that the sound of thunder through the mountain s is actually the dragon roaring. 1．What can we learn about the Calais dragon?A．It’s a character from a popular film.B．It’s a creation designed for entertainment.C．It’s a real creature trained for rides.D．It’s a sculpture displayed in a museum.2．What do Wales and Bhutan have in common on dragons?A．They feature dragons on their flags.B．They include dragons in their anthems.C．They have a legend of two dragons.D．They describe dragons as cute images. 3．Which country associates dragons with a natural phenomenon?A．France.B．Wales.C．Norway.D．Bhutan.We can create learning moments that students remember forever if we open up our classrooms to awe and wonder.Toward the end of my high school year, our Spanish teacher organized a trip to see an Andean band perform in Philadelphia. My classmates and I egged one another on ironically (讽刺地): Who could enjoy the show? The performers’ clothing seemed odd. The instruments, strange. But then the performers kicked in, dancing to their bombo and wancara drums around the stage and the panpipes and quena announced a kind of sound—new to us.We had spent too little time discussing the culture of the Inca in social studies but its traditions came alive for us that evening. Once the wonderful performance lit up the stage and the hall filled up with music, my teenage cynicism disappeared. I rose out of my chair to dance with honest joy.I have spent the last seven years living and working in South America. But my thirst for cultural exploration and a desire to understand the world outside my language and country has been alive longer than that. Sometimes I think that night dancing to those ancient rhythms unlocked this fascination. Why do I remember it so clearly decades later?In his recent book Awe: The New Science of Everyday Wonder and How It Can Transform Your Life, psychology professor Dacher Keltner explains that “brief moments of awe are as good for your mind and body as anything you might do.” Besides being a memorable emotion, awe boosts curiosity, builds humility, helps with critical thinking, and makes people feel more connected. It even makes us happier. “Twenty years into teaching happiness,” Keltner writes about how to find deep happiness, “I have an answer: FIND AWE.”Moving forward, let’s do our best to build instances of awe into our curriculum (课程). So when our former students approach us on the subway years later, they will recall the magical moments from their days spent in our classes.4．How did the students initially react to the Andean band’s performance?A．They showed respect for it.B．They approached it with doubt.C．They left in disappointment.D．They felt joyful to appreciate it. 5．What does the underlined word “cynicism” in paragraph 3 refer to?A．A deep understanding of music.B．A strong enthusiasm for exploration.C．A negative attitude to the world.D．A sense of connection with society. 6．What is paragraph 5 mainly about?A．The importance of finding happiness in life.B．The lasting impact of a memorable experience.C．The benefits of understanding different cultures.D．The positive role of awe in improving one’s life.7．Who is the text intended for?A．Teachers.B．High school graduates.C．Parents.D．Psychology researchers.Concrete has served as the foundation stone of the construction industry for hundreds of years. However, the process of producing concrete is one of the most environmentally unfriendly processes in the world. In the process, not only is carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) released into the air by the energy used to heat the limestone, but the limestone itself also gives out a huge amount of the element.Luckily, a number of start-ups throughout the world are using creative thinking to make the construction industry a whole lot more friendly for the planet.A Canadian company called CarbonCure, has found a way to inject (注入) concrete with carbon dioxide itself. Not only does this trap the carbon dioxide into the concrete, keeping it from running away into the atmosphere, but it also creates a super strong material called calcium carbonate, which reduces the total amount of concrete that needs to be used.California-based Brimstone, is creating carbon-negative concrete by doing away with limestone entirely and instead using silicate rock, a material that does not release carbon dioxide when heated. Instead, the process produces magnesium (镁) , which absorbs carbon dioxide, as the basis for their concrete.Additionally, researchers at Australia’s RMIT University have recently released a study showing that adding coffee grounds instead of sand to concrete could make it much stronger, reducing both the amount of sand used, as well as the amount of concrete that would need to be used in the final product.The biggest barrier at this point is convincing members of the industry that the new types of concrete are safe to be used, according to Stacy Smedley, director at a nonprofit focused on decarbonizing construction.Hopefully these new solutions to the environmental problems of concrete will soon be widely adopted. Given the significant part the construction industry has in releasing carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, great improvements can be made when more environmentally-friendly materials are used.8．What is the environmental issue associated with traditional concrete production?A．The high demand for energy.B．The processing of waste materials.C．The mass release of carbon dioxide.D．The use of non-renewable resources. 9．How does CarbonCure deal with the environmental impact of concrete production?A．By using silicate rock as the basis.B．By putting carbon dioxide into concrete.C．By replacing sand with coffee grounds.D．By absorbing carbon dioxide withmagnesium.10．According to Smedley, what is the major challenge facing these solutions?A．Difficulty in making profits.B．Convincing the public of theconvenience.C．Lack of funding for research.D．Removing the industry members’ safety concerns.11．What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A．To promote an alternative to concrete.B．To advocate environmental protection.C．To introduce new ways to produce concrete.D．To emphasize the significance of creativity.Writing out the same word again and again may bring back bad memories for some, but handwriting can boost connectivity across brain regions, some of which are involved in learning and memory, a new study shows.In the study, psychologists Audrey and Ruud, both at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology, stuck electrodes (电极) on the participants’ heads. They asked the participants to type out or hand write with a digital pen words that appeared on a computer screen. Sensors in a cap recorded electrical brain activity. Then the psychologists looked for when two brain areas are active with the same frequency of electrical waves at the same time.This result can reveal the connectivity among different regions across the brain.With handwriting, the researchers saw increased activity, specifically in low frequency bands, not only in the expected motor areas but also in others associated with learning. These low frequency bands have previously been shown to support memory processes. When the team compared the two tasks, they realized that handwriting —but not typing —increased the connectivity across parietal (顶叶) brain regions, which are involved in sensory and motor processing, and central regions, many of which are involved in memory.“Even when the movements are very similar, the activation seems much, much higher in handwriting,” Audrey says. “It shows that there’s more involvement of these brain regions when you’re handwriting, which might give you some specific advantages.”These findings suggest that there are distinct processes of brain activation happening while a person types or writes. This boost of stimulation of handwriting facilitates learning because these particular waves between these areas are involved in memory formation and encoding (编码) .And although handwriting may help with learning processes, typing is often easier, faster and more practical. “Students and teachers alike should therefore consider the task at hand to decide to hand write or type,” Audrey says. Despite the need for more studies to determine the best learning strategy, experts say that handwriting shouldn’t be left behind in the digital age. “Schools need to bring in more writing into curriculum design,” Ruud says.12．What did Audrey and Ruud mainly do in their research?A．They tested the function of electrodes.B．They analyzed the brain structure.C．They monitored the brain activities.D．They recorded the writing speed. 13．Why can handwriting improve learning more than typing?A．It involves more specific brain activation.B．It promotes better muscle memory.C．It allows for more innovative thinking.D．It encourages better concentration. 14．What’s the author’s attitude toward typing?A．Favorable.B．Objective.C．Doubtful.D．Unclear. 15．What might be the best title for the text?A．Taking Notes by Hand is Becoming Uncommon in ClassB．Using Keyboard is Recommended Due to Its ConvenienceC．Widespread Brain Connectivity is Crucial to Human LearningD．Handwriting Boosts Brain Connections More Than Typing DoesWhile technology addicts teens to their devices, they are not helpless against the draw of it. Here are five ways educators can support their students’ digital well-being.Explore design tricks companies use. The technology we use daily is designed to catch and hold our attention. Companies know what keeps our eyes on the screen. To help, teachers can unpack design tricks and explain how companies employ features like auto-play to get users to stay on their apps. 16Talk about how technology can increase feelings of anxiety. The decline in youth mental health is associated with an increase in social media use. 17 We can help our students by allowing them to consider the benefits of technology and then to think about changing the habits that aren’t serving their well-being.18 Social media can bring the feeling: “All my friends have better lives than me.” Plus, design features like “read receipts” can lead to teens knowing their messages have been seen and stressing about why friends haven’t yet replied. These are classic examples of thinking traps. Identifying them can help teens get rid of some negative thoughts.Uncover the ways that AI can play a role in misinformation. AI is rapidly transforming the world. Recommendation algorithms (算法), which determine what we do and do not see on our feeds and in our search results, can have very real consequences. 19 By understanding how these technologies work, students can start to enjoy more benefits of technology.Encourage families to have meaningful conversations with their child. Take the time to share with families the topics and resources you’re teaching in class. 20 Knowing we’re all in the same boat is crucial.A．Social media is ruining our life.B．Connect them with their inner world.C．Build their awareness of thinking traps.D．This by no means indicates all technology is bad.E．They can pull us toward increasingly extreme views.F．It turns out adults and kids all pursue digital well-being.G．Knowing these can motivate students to get back their attention.二、完形填空This wasn’t the way I wanted to see Rome.

湖南省湖南师范大学附属中学2023-2024学年高三上学期第三次月考英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解Cannes(戛纳)is a place that offers lots of different ways to spoil yourself. During the Cannes Film Festival in May, nothing changes, except that there are more people doing this, and that they talk about film. Here’s a guide to what you should do during the festival, both film-related and not.Hotel Intercontinental CarltonThe film festival is a busy time for Cannes. The best way to appreciate the crowds might be having a dinner on a terrace(露天平台). Head to the Hotel Intercontinental Carlton and wander the lobby to take it all in. If you’re lucky you might be able to secure a table in the restaurant. Dress to impress or you won’t stand a chance of getting in.Cinema de la PlageThroughout the Cannes Film Festival, one of the best places to soak up some of the wonderful atmosphere is the open-air Cinema de la Plage at Mace beach. If you haven’t secured a ticket in advance for a seat, there’s no need to worry. You can spread a blanket out on the ground, open up your pre-prepared picnic, and enjoy the movie.Marché ForvilleThe Marché Forville is a must-see for any visitor to Cannes and a foodie’．s delight. On most days, vendors sell home-made fruits and vegetables as well as local specialties to eat for lunch. But don’t go on Mondays, unless you want to browse for bargains, as that’s when the flea market is on instead.La CroisetteLa Croisette is the most famous walk in Cannes and is listed under the cultural inventory of France itself. Stroll the whole length, stop for a coffee, and end your walk by sitting on one of the free blue chairs along the way while taking in the view. It is also a great place to admire Cannes’ sculptures.1．What is probably the intention of the text?A．To introduce French culture.B．To present dining locations.C．To publicize a film festival.D．To suggest tourism activities.2．Which place best suits people who enjoy shopping?A．Hotel Intercontinental Carlton.B．Cinema de la Plage.C．Marché Forville.D．La Croisette.3．What can be expected in Cannes during the festival?A．Attending fashion shows.B．Watching movies outdoors.C．Tasting imported farm produce.D．Experiencing sculpture production.Coming into the freshman year at Paul College, Sansa was concerned about her ability as an individual to make an impact on such a large community, for it was never hard for her to stand out from peers in high school. Luckily, each first-year student in Paul College takes part in what is called the First-year Innovation and Research Experience, commonly referred to as the FIRE Program, an extracurricular project assigned by the institution. She was able to forge invaluable connections with her fellow students and their peer advisor who had so much first-hand experience with what they all were going through.The biggest highlight of her freshman year was working alongside her FIRE team on a Grand Challenge Project, in which every FIRE team competed against one another in the Undergraduate Research Conference. Each team had to create a unique product that tackled one of the five following real-world problems: “Water is Life”, “Food”, “Threats from Cyberspace”, “Medical Breakthroughs”, and “Addictive Society”. Her team addressed the growing issue of “Addictive Society”. Doing research, collecting facts and organizing discussions or even debates were a huge amount of work before they went to vie with other teams.After weeks of tireless preparation, their collective efforts bore fruit at the Undergraduate Research Conference. They earned a spot in the final round of the conference, where they competed against the top team from each of the other Grand Challenge groups. They were so overcome with pride when they were finally announced as the overall first-place team at the college!If it hadn’t been for her group’s determination, excellent teamwork and their awesome peer advisor Hayley, they would not have been able to accomplish everything they did. This experience would be instrumental in her future.4．What do we know about Sansa from paragraph 1?A．She performed quite well in high school.B．She was much more experienced than her college schoolmates.C．She applied for the FIRE Program.D．She had trouble with her freshman year.5．How did each team compete against one another?A．By providing facts.B．By creating products.C．By organizing debates.D．By challenging each other.6．What does the underlined phrase “vie with” in paragraph 2 probably mean?A．Contest against.B．Give way to.C．Break up with.D．Make up with.7．What is probably Sansa’s biggest gain from the FIRE Program?A．Financial benefits.B．Academic reputation.C．Good relationships.D．Competitive opponents.When Jason Allen submitted his “Th éâtre D’．opéra Spatial” into the Colorado StateFair’s fine arts competition, the print was an immediate hit, defeating 20 other artists in the “digitally manipulated photography” category to win the first-place blue ribbon and a $ 300 prize.Allen’s piece offers a clear example of how rapidly AI-generated art has advanced. Trained on billions of internet images, the systems have decisively pushed the boundaries of what computers can create.But it has also sparked a massive debate over the meaning of art, with Allen facing accusations that he had been deceiving with something he asked a machine to create.Text-to-image tools like DALL-E 2 and Midjourney have quickly increased in sophistication and have become one of the hottest topics in AI. They can generate not just fake people, objects and locations but mimic entire visual styles.But AI-generated art has been criticized as automated plagiarism (剽窃), because it relies on millions of ingested art pieces that are then parroted (机械地重复) together. It has also fueled deeper fears: blurring the boundaries of reality or interfering with human art.Allen said his art piece shows people need to “get past their denial and fear” of a technology that could give rise to new inventions and reshape our world. “The AI,” he said,“is a tool, just like the paintbrush is a tool. Without the person, there is no creative force.”Jessica Hair, a 25-year-old receptionist at a doctor’s office who won third place in the competition, said she did not feel as if Allen had acted unfairly and had no hard feelings about his win.Hair said her “Judge, Jury, Executioner”, which depicts a tuxedoed skeleton on a golden throne surrounded by skulls, took 15 hours to create with a stylus (触屏笔) on an iPad Pro. But Allen’s piece took time, effort and subjective judgment, too, and “how do we qualify what is and isn’t art?” she said.8．Which of the following statements can be inferred from the text?A．It is the first time in history that an AI-generated work has won an arts competition.B．Advances made in computer art are not as rapid as the public believes them to be.C．Computer-produced works have more success in some art forms than in others.D．People’s acceptance of computer-produced art pieces can vary considerably. 9．According to the text, why is AI-generated art facing severe criticism?A．Because it will ultimately overtake human art in the future.B．Because it will lead to a sharp decrease in human creativity.C．Because it purely uses existing art pieces as its subject matter.D．Because the technical standard of its output is extremely low.10．What was Allen’s reaction to people’s criticism?A．He fought back like a soldier.B．He kept silent like a victim.C．He persuaded like a promoter.D．He lost heart like a failure.11．What is Jessica Hair’s attitude towards Allen’s award-winning piece?A．Supportive.B．Critical.C．Cautious.D．Skeptical.The streets, sidewalks and roofs of cities all absorb heat during the day, making some urban areas across the United States up to 6 degrees Fahrenheit hotter than rural ones during the day—and 22 degrees F hotter at night. These “urban heat islands”can also develop underground as the city heat spreads downward, beneath the surface. And basements, subway tunnels and other underground infrastructure also constantly bleed heat into the surrounding earth, creating hotspots. Now the underground heat is building up as the planet warms.According to a new study of downtown Chicago, underground hotspots may threaten the very same structures that emit the heat in the first place. Such temperature changes make the ground around them expand and contract (收缩) enough to cause potential damage. “Without anyone realizing it, the city of Chicago’s downtown was deforming,” says the study’s author Alessandro F. Rotta Loria, a civil and environmental engineer at Northwestern University.The findings, published in Communications Engineering, expose a “silent hazard (危险)” to civil infrastructure in cities with soft er ground — especially those near water — Rotta Loria says. “There might have been structural issues caused by this underground climate change that happened, and we didn’t even realize,” he adds. While not an immediate or direct danger to human lives, this previously unknown effect highlights the impacts of a lesser-known component of climate change.Similar to climate change above the surface, these underground changes occur over long periods of time. “These effects took decades, a century, to develop,” Rotta Loria says, adding that elevated underground temperatures would likewise take a long time to dissipate (逐渐消失) on their own.But other researchers interviewed for this story all say this wasted energy could also be recycled, presenting an opportunity to both cool the subsurface and save on energy costs. Subway tunnels and basements could be updated with technologies to recapture the heat. For example, water pipes could be installed to run through underground hotspots and pick up some of the heat energy.12．What can we learn about the “urban heat islands”?A．They can develop underground structures.B．They are impacted by global warming.C．They can destroy the ground around.D．They only exist in the United States.13．Why does Alessandro F. Rotta Loria mention “silent hazard” in paragraph 3?A．To discuss structural issues.B．To categorize climate change.C．To explain underground heat.D．To emphasize the neglected reality.14．What will the author probably write about in the paragraph that follows?A．The future of tunnels and basements.B．The reusing approaches of heat energy.C．The cost of maintaining structures.D．The evolution of underground environment.15．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A．Warming Underground, Weakening SurfaceB．A Silver Lining of Global WarmingC．Urban Silent Islands in the MakingD．A Silent Crisis in Downtown Chicago二、七选五Including children in the farming lifestyle has many benefits. Sure, it is nice to have the additional help with chores, but it also fosters so much growth, sending our kids down a good path towards who they will someday become. It is possible that our children will grow up to lead lives that do not include farming. 16Through caring for farm animals, kids learn that in life others often come before self.17 It doesn’t matter if we don’t feel like it or if we are sick and tired. What matters is that we take care of the animals that take care of us and do so in a timely manner.18 If the work on a farm does not get done, the operation fails. It takes discipline and commitment to get down to business every day, and seeing this in action will give kids a good work attitude. They will know and understand that nothing good comes easy and that they have to work to survive. 19 Functioning as part of a productive team will surely be playing a crucial role sooner or later in all walks of life.Additionally, farming teaches patience. 20 It’s especially true for the animals. Cattle will be difficult to control. Horses will run away when you try to catch them. Goats will kick over that bucket of hard-earned milk. A rooster will decide you got too close to his hens and give you a run for your money. In spite of all that, kids will learn to be patient and take things easy.There may not be any instant reward, but in the long-term kids will see the benefit of all their efforts during those hard days.A．Fairly often, things do not go your way.B．Kids also learn to be grateful to animals.C．In the meantime, they learn to work with others.D．Teamwork is no longer a significant skill to develop and use.E．Animals need to be fed and cared for before we get to sit down and relax.F．Kids are also able to comprehend the value of hard work through farm life.G．What they learn on a farm, however, can be instrumental in their future lives.三、完形填空27．A．could B．should C．would D．might 28．A．also B．again C．only D．instead 29．A．responded B．claimed C．updated D．expressed 30．A．odd B．general C．novel D．complicated 31．A．closed B．black C．plain D．blank 32．A．lesson B．blame C．curse D．ban 33．A．open B．click C．use D．function 34．A．refreshing B．crashing C．connecting D．running 35．A．advocate B．tolerate C．appreciate D．understand四、用单词的适当形式完成短文阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Some students ask for more food than they can eat and others often forget to turn off the lights when they leave the classroom. They say they can afford these things. But I don’t agree with them.Waste can bring a lot of problems. Although China is rich in some resources (资源), we are short of others, for example, fresh water. It is reported that we will have no coal or oil to use in 100 years. So if we go on wasting our resources, what can we use in the future and where can we move? Think about it. I think we should say no to the students who waste things every day. Everybody should stop wasting as soon as possible.In our everyday life, we can do many things to prevent (阻⽌) waste from happening, for example, turn off the water taps when we finish washing, turn off the lights when we leave the classroom, try not to order more food than we need, and so on. Little by little, everything will be changed. Waste can be stopped one day, if we do our best.1.From the passage we know that some students often __ in the school.A eat too muchB don’t work hardC waste thingsD throw rubbish everywhere2.Which is not mentioned in this passage?A Fresh waterB ForestC OilD Coal3.What may happen in 100 years?A We may still have enough oilB We may still have enough coalC We may have a little coalD We may have no coal or oil to use4 Which of the following is right?A Waste brings problems.B Waste can bring no problemC China is rich in fresh water.D Students never waste thins5 Which is the best title of this passage?A Stop WastingB School lifeC Waste in the schoolD Rich Resources in ChinaBDick was a college student．He was studying history．But at the end of the first school year he did not pass the exam．A month later he sat for the make-up exam，but he was down again．Dick was very afraid because he knew he might have to leave the college．When Dick's father knew this，he went to see the professor（教授）．“Dick is a good boy，” said the father．“If you let him pass it this time，I'm sure he will study harder next year and pass all the exams with very good marks．”“No，that's quite impossible，” answered the professor．“He almos t knows nothing about history．Last month I asked him when Napoleon（拿破仑）died，and he said he didn't know．”“Please，sir，give him another chance，” said the father．“Sometimes we were too busy to read the evening papers carefully，so we even don’t know Mr. Napole on was ill．”6.Dick has been in college for ______.A four yearsB only one yearC less than six monthsD more than two years7“ Sat for the make –up exam” in the passage means” ____A. 不及格 B 期末考试 C 参加补考D下决⼼8.

The collection of happiness actions broadly categorized as "honor" help you create this life of good feelings．Here's an example to show how honorable actions create happiness．Say a store clerk fails to charge us for an item．If we keep silent, and profit from the clerk's mistake, we would drive home with a sense of sneaky excitement．Later we might tell our family or friends about our good fortune．On the other hand, if we tell the clerk about the uncharged item, the clerk would be grateful and thank us for our honesty．We would leave the store with a quiet sense of honor that we might never share with another soul．Then, what is it to do with our sense of happiness?In the first case, where we don't tell the clerk, a couple of things would happen．Deep down inside we would know ourselves as a type of thief．In the process, we would lose some peace of mind and self-respect．We would also demonstrate that we cannot be trusted, since we advertise our dishonor by telling our family and friends．We damage our own reputations by telling others．In contrast, bringing the error to the clerk's attention causes different things to happen．Immediately the clerk knows us to be honorable．Upon leaving the store, we feel honorable and our self-respect is increased．Whenever we take honorable action we gain the deep internal rewards of goodness and a sense of nobility．There is a beautiful positive cycle that is created by living a life of honorable actions．Honorable thoughts lead to honorable actions．Honorable actions lead us to a happier existence．And it's easy to think and act honorably again when we're happy．While the positive cycle can be difficult to start, once it's started, it's easy to continue．Keeping on doing good deeds brings us peace of mind, which is important for our happiness．56．According to the passage, the positive action in the example contributes to our_________．A．self-respect B．financial rewardsC．advertising ability D．friendly relationship57．The phrase "bringing the error to the clerk's attention" （in para．5）means___．A．telling the truth to the clerk B．offering advice to the clerkC．asking the clerk to be more attentiveD．reminding the clerk of the charged item58．How will we feel if we let the clerk know her mistake?A．We'll be very excited．B．We'll feel unfortunate．C．We'll have a sense of honor．D．We'll feel sorry for the clerk．59．Which of the following can be the best title of this passage．*A．How to Live TruthfullyB．Importance of PeacefulnessC．Ways of Gaining Self-respectD．Happiness through Honorable ActionsBJane Austen, a famous English writer, was born at Steventon, Hampshire, on December 16,1775, and died on July 18, 1817．She began writing early in life, although the prejudices of her times forced her to have her books published anonymously （匿名）But Jane Austen is perhaps the best known and best loved of Bath’s many famous local people and visitors．She paid two long visits here during the last five years of the eighteenth century and from 1801 to 1806, Bath was her home．Her deep knowledge of the city is fully seen in two of her novels, Northanger Abbey and Persuasion, which are largely set in Bath．The city is still very much as Jane Austen knew it, keeping in its streets and public buildings the well-ordered world that she described so well in her novels．Now the pleasure of learning Jane Austen’s Bath can be enhanced （增强）by visiting the Jane Austen Centre in Gay Street．Here, in a Georgian town house in the heart of the city, you can find out more about Bath in Jane Austen’s time and the importance of Bath in her life and work．The Centre has been set up with the help and guidance of members of the Jane Austen Society．After your visit to the Centre, you can look round the attractive shop, which offers a huge collection of Jane Austen related books, cards and many specially designed gifts．Jane Austen quizzes are offered to keep the children busy．You can also have walking tours of Jane Austen’s Bath, which is a great way t o find out more about Jane Austen and discover the wonderful Georgian city of Bath．The tour lasts about one and a half hours．The experienced guides will take you to the places where Jane lived, walked and shopped．60．Jane Austen paid two long visits to Bath________．A．in her early twenties B．in her early teensC．in her late twenties D．in her late teens61．What can we learn about Bath from the passage?A．Bath has greatly changed since Jane Austen’s d eath．B．The city has changed as much as Jane Austen knew it．C．Bath remains almost the same as in Jane Austen’s time．D．No changes have taken place in Bath since Jane Austen’s time．62．The author writes this passage in order to________．A．attract readers to visit the city of BathB．ask readers to buy Austen’s booksC．tell readers about Jane Austen’s experienceD．give a brief introduction to the Jane Austen Society63．It takes you about one and a half hours________．A．to get to the Jane Austen Centre in Gay StreetB．to buy Jane Austen related books, cards and giftsC．to find a guide to take you to the CentreD．to look around the city of Bath on footCAs any homemaker who has tried to keep order at the dinner table knows, there is far more to a family meal than food．Sociologist Michael Lewis has been studying 50 families to find outjust how much more．Lewis and his co-workers carried out their study by videotaping（录像）the families while they ate ordinary meals in their own homes．They found that parents with small families talk actively with each other and their children．But as the number of children gets larger, conversation gives way to the parents’ efforts to control the loud noise they make．That can have an important effect on the children．“In general the more question-asking the parents do, the higher the children’s IQ scores,” Lewis says．“And the more children there are, the less question-asking there is．”The study also provides an explanation for why middle children often seem to have a harder time in life than their siblings（兄弟姐妹）．Lewis found that in families with three or four children, dinner conversation is likely to center on the oldest child, who has the most to talk about, and the youngest, who needs the most attention．“Middle children are invisible,” says Lewis．“When you see someone get up from the table and walk around during dinner, chances are it’s the middle child．” There is, however, one thing that stops all conversation and prevents anyone from h aving attention: “When the TV is on,” Lewis says, “dinner is a non-event．”64．The writer’s purpose in writing the text is to ______．A．show the relationship between parents and childrenB．teach parents ways to keep order at the dinner tableC．report on the findings of a studyD．give information about family problems65．Parents with large families ask fewer questions at dinner because ______．A．they are busy serving food to their childrenB．they are busy keeping order at the dinner tableC．they have to pay more attention to younger childrenD．they are tired out having prepared food for the whole family66．By saying “Middle children are invisible” in paragraph 3, Lewis means that middle children ______．A．have to help their parents to serve dinnerB．get the least attention from the familyC．are often kept away from the dinner tableD．find it hard to keep up with other children67．．Which of the following statements would the writer agree to?A．It is important to have the right food for children．B．It is a good idea to have the TV on during dinner．C．Parents should talk to each of their children frequently．D．Elder children should help the youngerones at dinnerDHow should one invest a sum of money in these clays of inflation （通货膨胀）? Left in a bank it will hardly keep its value, however high the interest rate．Only a brave man, or a very rich one, dares to buy and sell on the Stock Market．Today it seems that one of the best ways to protect your savings, and even increase your wealth is to buy beautiful objects from the past．Here I am going to offer some advice on collecting antique clocks, which I personally consider are among the most interesting of antiques．I sometimes wonder what a being from another planet might report back about our way of life．"The planet Earth is ruled by a mysterious creature that sits or stands in a room and makes astrange ticking sound．It has a face with twelve black marks and two hands．Men can do nothing without its permission, and it fastens its young round people's wrists so that everywhere men go they are still under its control．This creature is the real master of Earth and men are its slaves．"Whether or not we are slaves of time today depends on our culture and personality, but it is believed that many years ago kings kept special slaves to tell the time．Certain men were very clever at measuring the time of clay according to the beating of their own hearts．They were made to stand in a fixed place and every hour or so would shout the time．So it seems that the first clocks were human beings．However, men quickly found more convenient and reliable ways of telling the time．They learned to use the shadows cast by the sun．They marked the hours on candles, used sand in hour- glasses, and invented water-clocks．Indeed, any serious student of antique should spend as much time as possible visiting palaces, stately homes and museums to see some of the finest examples of clocks from the past．Antique clocks could be very expensive, but one of the joys of collecting clocks is that it is still possible to find quite cheap ones for your own home．After all, if you are going to be ruled by time, why not invest in an antique clock and perhaps make a future profit?68．According to the passage, collecting antique clocks____．A．can hardly keep the value of your savingsB．will cost much of your savingsC．may increase your wealthD．needs your bravery69．Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a way to measure the time?A．Counting the beating of one's own heart．B．Making use of candles, sand and water．C．Observing shadows cast by the sun．D．Keeping slaves busy day and night．70．The underlined phrase stately homes in paragraph 4 meansA．state-owned housesB．houses in very good conditionC．grand houses open to the publicD．houses where statesmen meet regularly第二节：根据短文内容，选择能填入空白出的最佳选项，选项中有两项多余，将答案写在答卷纸上（共五小题10分）答案写在答卷纸上______1 Scientists and experts have proved the uniqueness of finger-prints and discovered that no exactly similar pattern is passed on from parents to children, though nobody knows why this is the case．The ridge （隆起）structure on a person's fingers does not change with growth and is not affected by surface injuries．Burns, cuts and other damage to the outer part of the skin will be replaced in time by new one, which bears a reproduction of the original pattern．2_____ Some criminals make use of this fact to remove their own finger-prints but this is a dangerous and rare step to take．Finger-prints can be made very easily with printer's ink．They can be recorded easily．3_____ Because of the simplicity and economy of this system, finger-prints have often been used as a method of solving criminal case．A suspected man may deny a charge but this may be in vain．4_______When a suspect leaves finger-prints behind at the scene of a crime, they are difficult to detect with the naked eye．5_____ Some of the marks found are incomplete but identification is possible if a print of a quarter of an inch square can be obtained．A．Special techniques are used to "develop" them．B．A fingerprint is an impression of the friction ridges of all part of he finger．C．It is only when the inner skin is injured that the arrangement will be destroyed．D．With special methods, identification can be achieved successfully within a short time．E．A latent print is the chance reproduction of the friction ridges deposited on the surface of an item．F．His finger-prints can prove who he is even if his appearance has been changed by age or accident．G．Every human being has a unique arrangement of the skin on his fingers and this arrangement is unchangeable第三节短文改错（共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分）增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号（∧），并在此符号下面写出该加的词。

One strength of the human condition is our possibility to giveand receive support from one another under stressful ( 有压力的 ) conditions .Social support makes up of thee_change of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties . Those ofus with strong support systems appear better able to deal with major life changes and daily problems. People with strong social ties live longer and havebetter health than those without such ties. Studies over types of illnesses,from depression to heart disease, show that the presence of social support helps people defend themselves against illness, and the absence of such supportmakes poor health more likely.Social support cushionsstress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives and co-workers may let usknow that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel acceptedby others in spite of our faults and difficulties. Second, other people oftenprovide us with informational support .They help us to define and understandour problems and find solutions to them. Third, we typically find social companionship supportive. Taking part in free-time activities with others helpsus to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting ( 转移注意力 ) us from our worries and troubles .Finally, other people may give us instrumental support – money aid, materialresources, and needed services –that reduces stress by helping us resolve anddeal with our problems.69. Interpersonalrelationships are important because they can ____________.A.makepeople live more easily B. smooth away daily problemsC.deal with life changesD.cure types of illnesses70. The researches show that people’s physical and mentalhealth ________.A.lies in the social medical caresystems which support themB. has much to do with the amountof support they get from othersC.depends on their ability to dealwith daily worries and troublesD.is related to their courage fordealing with major life changes71.

What is the subject discussed in the te_t?A.Interpersonal relationships.B. Kinds of social support.C.Ways todeal with stress. D.Effects of stressful condition.DWind is the great maker of waves.There are e_ceptions, such as the tidal ( 潮汐的) waves sometimes produced by earthquakes under the sea . But the waves most ofus know are produced by winds blowing over the sea.Now before constructing animaginary life history of a typical wave, we need to know certain physical things about it. A wave has height, from trough (low point) to crest (high point). It has length --- the distance from this crest to that of the followingwave. The period of the wave means the time it takes for succeeding crests topass a fi_ed point. None of these things stays the same --- for all depend uponthe wind, upon the depth of the water and many other matters .The water that makes up a wavedoes not advance with it across the sea. Each drop of water turns around in alittle circle with the passing of the wave, but returns very nearly to its original position. And it is fortunate that this is so. For if the huge massesof water that make up a wave actually moved across the sea, sailing would beimpossible.If we want to find the speed of awave, we may use the following way:Speed = wavelength_frequencyHere, wavelength is the distancebetween two high points ( crests ) , frequency means the number of cycles persecond .74. What causes waves?A,Earthquakes and nothing else. B.Only wind.C.Wind causes most waves.D. Wind causes some waves.75. Which of the following is trueaccording to the passage?A.The water of a wave moves away acrossthe sea.B.The water of a wave remainsalmost at the same place.C.The water of a wave goes withthe passing of the wave.D.The length of a wave means thedistance from the top of a wave to the bottom.76. The speed of Wave 1 is 100cm/s , frequency 10 . Thefrequency of Wave 2 is 300, while its speed is twice that of Wave 1. Which ofthe following is right?A.The wavelength of the two areequal.B.The wavelength of Wave 1 is 10times longer than that of Wave 2.C.The wavelength of Wave 2 islonger than that of Wave 1.D.Thewavelength of Wave 1 is longer than that of Wave 2.EI am one of the many city peoplewho are always saying that given the choice we would prefer to live in the country away from the dirt and noise of a large city .If it weren’t for my jobI would immediately move out for the open spaces and go back to nature.Cities can be frightening places.The majority of the population live in many tower blocks ,noisy ,dirty and impersonal. The sense of belonging to a community tends to disappear when youlive fifteen floors up. All you can see from your window is sky ,or other blocks of flats .Children become aggressive and nervous as they are shut up athome all day, with nowhere to play; their mothers feel isolated(孤立的)from the rest of the world. Strangely enough,in the past the residents of one street all knew each other, but nowadays people on the same floor in tower blocks don’t even say hello to each other.Country life ,on the other hand,differs from this kind of isolated e_istence in that a sense of community generally binds the residents of small villages together. People have the advantage of knowing that there is always someone to turn to when they needhelp .But country life has disadvantages too. While it is true that you may beamong friends in a village ,it is also true that you are cut off from the e_citing and important events that take place in cities .There’s little possibility of going to a new show or the latest movie. Shopping becomes a majorproblem ,and for anything slightly out of the ordinary you have to go a longway to the nearest large town .The city people who leave for the country oftencan’t bear the stillness and quiet there.What ,then ,is the answer? Thecountry has the advantage of peace and quiet ,but suffers from the disadvantageof being cut off ; the city gives people a feeling of isolation ,and constant noise can nearly drive you mad. But one of its main advantages is that you areat the center of things, and that life doesn’t come to an end at half-past nineat night. Some people have found a compromise(折衷)between the two: leave cities and move to villages within commuting(可乘公交车往返的)distance of large cities. It sounds great!77.It seems that the writer prefers to livein the country mainly because .A.the city is somehow pollutedB.the country folks are more friendlyC.one can get better sleep in thecountry D.it’s hard forpeople to find jobs in the city78.The biggest disadvantage of living in thecountry is that .A.life there is inconvenientB.shopping is almost impossibleC.you can not see a movie or a showD.lifecomes to an end at half past nine79.As to which is better ,city life orcountry life, the writer .A.did some e_planationB.made some comparisonC.described both of them vividlyD.talked a lot about his preference80.The underlined word 〝binds〞 in thethird paragraph is similar in meaning to .A.attractsB.drivesC.preventsD.unites书面表达(满分25分)为促进我校师生的英语学习,我们将举办英语晚会,请你以学生会的名义发一份英语书面通知,欢迎全校师生参加.内容:1．晚会时间:下星期五晚7:00——9:002.晚会地点:学校大会议室3.晚会节目:英语故事,英语歌曲,英语诗歌及短剧等.届时还邀请在本校工作的加拿大教师格林夫妇参加晚会,他们将表演精彩的节日.注意:1.通知要包括所有要点,要注意通知的格式.2.词数80——20 参考词汇:Student Union学生会(虚拟语气)专题检测题参考答案(仅供参考)1.

“Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and charm and joy to life and to everything,” the ancient Greek philosopher Plato said.This is one of Don Spencer’s favorite mottos that he firmly believes. “We know that music brings joy and comfort, and makes us feel happy,” Spencer says, “But research has also discovered music plays a powerful role in the mental development of children. Music inspires creativity, imagination and self-expression. It also builds self-respect and is good for memory skills.”The power of musicMuch research supports both Spencer and Plato. A Stanford University study found that musical training improves the way the brain processes the spoken word.Research from Canada found that children aged four to six years old who had music lessons had better memories, as well as higher ability to read and write and math’s levels.Not in the curriculumResearch from Australia shows it’s not that smart kids play music; it’s that music makes kids smarter. It supports Spencer’s call for music to be a standard part of the school curriculum, like English and Math.“Music is everywhere, but not at 75 percent of public schools around Australia who don't have a devoted music teacher,” Spencer says. “It's sad that many children don’t have access to formal musical education, particularly when it has such an effect on a child’s development.”Ideally, Spencer would like every child to learn an instrument. “Kids can access cheap instruments like a ukulele, recorder or harmonica,” Spencer says. He says the Internet has a lot of free videos which teach you how to play instruments.“I can't stress enough how important music is,” he says. “It builds relationships, unites people and, most importantly, it is fun.”1．Plato’s words are mentioned at the beginning of the text to show that ________. A．music was important in ancient time B．everything is based on music C．Spencer admires Plato D．music has magic power2．From the research from Australia mentioned in the passage, we can learn ________. A．music can make children smarterB．children aged four to six have better memoriesC．there are no professional music teachers in AustraliaD．music is a standard part of the school curriculum in most schools3．What might be the best title for the passage?A．When Music is taught B．Why Music MattersC．Why We Learn Instruments D．How Children Learn MusicYou’ve just come home, after living abroad for a few years. Since you’ve been away, has this country changed for the better—or for the worse?If you’ve just arrived back in the UK after a fortnight’s holiday, small changes have probably surprised you—anything from a local greengrocer suddenly being replaced by amobile-phone shop to someone in your street moving house.So how have things changed to people coming back to Britain after seven, ten or even 15 years living abroad? What changes in society can they see that the rest of us have hardly noticed—or now take for granted? To find out, we asked some people who recently returned. Debi: When we left, Cheltenham, my home town, was a town of white, middle-class families—all very conservative (保守的). The town is now home to many eastern Europeans and lots of Australians, who come here mainly to work in hotels and tourism. There are even several shops only for foreigners.Having been an immigrant (移民) myself, I admire people who go overseas to find a job. Maybe if I lived in an inner city where unemployment was high, I’d think differently, but I believe foreign settlers have improved this country because they’re more open-minded andoften work harder than the natives.Christine: As we flew home over Britain, both of us remarked how green everything looked. But the differences between the place we’d left behind and the one we returned to were brought sharply into focus as soon as we landed.To see policemen with guns in the airport for the first time was frightening—in Cyprus, they’re very relaxed—and I got pulled over by customs officers just for taking a woolen sweater with some metal-made buttons out of my case in the arrivals hall. Everyone seemed to be on guard. Even the airport car-hire firm wanted a credit card rather than cash because they said their vehicles had been used by bank robbers.But anyway, this is still a green, beautiful country. I just wish more people would appreciate what they’ve got.4．After a short overseas holiday, people tend to _______.A．notice small changesB．expect small changesC．welcome small changesD．exaggerate small changes5．How does Debi look at the foreign settlers?A．Cautiously.B．Positively.C．Sceptically.D．Critically.6．When arriving at the airport in Britain, Christine was shocked by _______.A．the relaxed policemenB．the messy arrivals hallC．the tight securityD．the bank robbers7．Which might be the best title for the passage?A．Life in Britain.B．Back in Britain.C．Britain in Future.D．Britain in Memory.“You’ll get square eyes!” my mother used to say as I sat for hour after hour glued to the TV. I ignored her, of course. Past-forward a few decades and now I’m the parent. My5-year-old lives in a world where screens aren’t fixed pieces of furniture. You can’t even avoid them by going outside. Screens are not only in our pockets; they’re everywhere.The concerns have grown with the screens. In the past decade, we have heard that they will damage our mental health. Many of us feel more distracted by them, feeling guiltier and more tired as a result.The apps and websites we can access on our phones have also sparked widespread concern. Big tech companies are also good at making use of our need for social recognition, hooking us on likes, retweets and follower counts. Social media has created a culture of mass narcissism (自恋), which has led many to worry about the emotional stresses on teenagers. A quick online search brings up dozens of papers linking screen use or social media with harmful effects on mental health, including depression and suicide.Such statements are alarming. They are also widely believed, thanks to popular books like iGen by Jean Twenge, which claims that digital technology has ruined a generation. Yet, Amy Orben at the University of Oxford, who studies the impact of digital technology and social media in particular on mental health, holds different views. She claims that the underlying data can be used to tell different stories. She also spotted shortcomings in several large studies that claimed to show correlations (相关性) between the use of devices with screens and depression in users.Twenge stands by her own finding, pointing in turn to what she considers flaws in Orben’s research methods. For David Max, at Royal College of Child Health in London, the effect of screen time and social media use on mental health remains speculative. “We cannot regard social media overall as good or bad,” says Davie. “We don’t know whether in individual cases social media is not responsible,” he says.The explosion of mobile phone use has revolutionized our lives. I can download movies, write articles, communicate with my family and broadcast to the world all at the push of a button. Rather than impose constraints (限制), we should take a look at our use of screens and ask how they fit with the activities and lifestyle.Every new technology with widespread impact has given rise to new fears. So the best bet may simply be to ask yourself what level of screen use makes you and those around you happy and try to stick to it. If you find yourself over addictive, don’t panic—and certainlydon’t feel guilty. Nobody knows anything worth getting scared about.8．According to the passage, people give likes, retweet or count followers to __________. A．share one’s lifestyles B．show respect for othersC．seek social recognition D．relieve emotional stresses9．The underlined word “speculative” probably means “__________”.A．doubtful B．specificC．important D．abstract10．What can be learned from the passage?A．Teenagers are more affected by screen use both physically and mentally.B．Orben claims it is far too early to blame screen use for ruining a generation.C．Big tech companies help to produce many research papers on mental health. D．Twenge mainly introduces the overall benefits of digital technology in her books. 11．The passage is written to __________.A．encourage readers to reduce the time of screen useB．share different opinions on the effects of screen useC．explain why screen use may have negative effects on peopleD．relieve people’s concerns and worries about the use of screensThe Brazilian scientists were in disbelief after seeing the results. They tested different models to re-check their information. But all returned the same. The country with the most freshwater resources in the world had lost 15 percent of its surface water since 1991.Evaporation (蒸发) is a part of the natural process that can lessen water resources. This is especially true in areas with low water levels like the Pantanal wetlands. But the scientists believe something else is happening.Experts have warmed human activity is affecting the world’s weather patterns. It is causing extreme events to happen more often, such as severe droughts and floods. The cutting and burning of forest and the building of large hydroelectric factories and dams for watering crops all affect natural patterns.In Brazil’s Amazon rainforest, water evaporates then travels on air flows to provide rainfall far away. But some climate experts say if too much forest is destroyed, the Amazon will start an irreparable process of becoming a savannah (大草原).There are more immediate effects for worry, like possible power shortages this year.Hydroelectric reservoirs have had ten years of lower-than-usual rainfall. Reservoirs in the Parana River area have never before been overused.The Parana River and its connected water bodies supply fresh water to some 40 million people. That includes the large city of Sao Paolo and several states. Fishing communities and farmers also depend on these water bodies.Brazil’s decreasing water resources may also worsen fires that people set each winter to clear land. The fires then bum out of control. Last year, more than 25 percent of Brazil’s Pantanal was on fire. It was the worst yearly damage since officials began keeping records in 2003. In areas without roads, moving on smaller rivers can be a problem because of low water levels, Rabelo said. That means firefighters could soon have trouble reaching some fires. And, even if they can, less water is available to put them out.12．What was the Brazilian scientists’ reaction to their findings?A．Satisfied.B．Disappointed.C．Shocked.D．Overjoyed. 13．Which of the following belongs to “something else” in the third paragraph? A．Evaporation.B．Building dams.C．Power shortage.D．Fishing. 14．What can we know from the passage?A．Brazil lacks roads for firefighters to reach fires.B．The destruction of the rainforest may affect the rainfall.C．Brazil’s people set fires to keep wild animals away in winter.D．Reservoirs in the Parana River area is useless due to water shortage.15．What is the best title of the passage?A．Water Study Raises Fears for Drought B．Brazil’s Forest Is Disappearing C．More Water, More Happiness D．Cherish Water, Extend Life第二节（共5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分12.5 分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
