阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
There are plenty of reasons why people go to the library. People go there mainly for school, for work, or for personal research. There are a few who make use of the library only when specific data or information can't be had by any other means. No matter you ’ re your motivation for visiting the library is, you'1l surely want to set your eyes on the following four largest libraries in the world.
Washington D.C's Library of Congress
If you've already watched the movie National Treasure 2, then you've already taken a glimpse of this impressive library. Within this library, you'll find all you need to answer your questions about culture, science, philosophy, history, and any other subject matter. It has been used in numerous movies. With a vast book collection at over 30 million and written in just about any language you can think of, the Library of Congress, established in 1800, definitely deserves all the fame. The public can visit the library, but only high-ranking American officials are allowed to check out books.
Beijing's National Library of China
Situated in Beijing and with 26.3 million books in its collection, the NLC is sure to give joy to the average bibliophile(藏书家).Among its books, you'll find the world's greatest and richest complications of Chinese writings
and ancient documents. Founded in 1909 and opened doors to the public three years after, the NLC also contains a lot of
Qing Dynasty writings as well as a collection of literature written on bones and tortoise shells.
Massachusetts' Harvard University Library
Compared to all the other libraries in universities in the world, Harvard University Library houses the most enormous private collection of books. Established in 1638, the Harvard Library is considered as America's oldest. In 1764, a disastrous fire broke out and it turned a considerable number of books into ashes. Today, the library has a total of over 13 million books displayed in 90 library wings, each dealing with a particular field of study.
London's British Library
When it comes to the number of items in its collection, the British Library, founded in 1973, is beyond compare. It has over 150 million items, a lot of which are works circulated in the United Kingdom. The library also has scores of items from- other countries and has books written in a number of languages. You will also discover that these works can be found in formats ranging from stone inscriptions(刻印文字) to digital publications. The growth rate of the British Library is 3 million pieces per year.
Which library has the longest history
A. Washington D.C.'s Library of Congress B. Beijing's National Library of China
C. Massachusetts' Harvard University Library D. London's British Library
Which library has frequently appeared in numerous movies
Washington D.C.'s Library of Congress
Beijing's National Library of China
Massachusetts' Harvard University Library
London's British Library
It can be inferred from the passage that......
there exists the largest number of books in London's British Library.
people are free to check out books in Washington D.C.'s Library of Congress
Beijing's National Library of China was open to the public the moment it was founded.
D. Massachusetts ’ Harvard University Library remained safe and sound because of the fire in 1764.
B
I had just delivered a memorized speech, and 1 was about to learn how the judges decided my performance. The audience leaned forward and a period of silence fell across the room. I felt the drum rolled in my heart.
The third-place winner was announced. The name was not mine. Then the second-place winner, still not me. At
last, the moment of truth came. 1 was about to either enjoy the warmth of victory or regret the months’ preparation. My heart felt closer to thelatter.
Losing is a part of life, and I have dealt with it on more than one occasion. However,it was an indescribable
feeling to drive a 200-mile round trip get up very early on a freezing Saturday morning, and yet still finish fourth out of four competitors in my group. After Lincoln lost the 1858 Illinois Senate race, he said, "I felt like the 12-year-old boy
高一 英语试卷
who kicked his toe. I was too big to cry and it hurt too bad to laugh." Oh yeah, I could relate.
I had spent many hours in front of a computer and in libraries doing research for the Lincoln Bicentennial Speech Contest. After not placing in the first year of the contest, I really wanted to compete again. Lincoln had many failures, but he never allowed them to defeat his spirit or ambition, so I was not going to give up on a secondcontest! I reworked my speech for the following year, but again I did not place.
I couldn't accept the fact that I failed twice in something that I had worked so hard on, until l thought about my
hero. Never mind the lost prize money and praise --- through learning stories about Lincoln. I discovered that I can fail successfully.
24. How did the author feel after finishing his speech
A. Excited B. Relaxed C. Nervous D. Confident.
25.What can we learn about the author from Paragraph3
A.He was disappointed with his preparations.
B.He hurt his toes on the way to the library.
C.He got up late on the day of the contest.
D.He was bottom of his group
26.What made the author decide to enter the second contest
A.The warmth of the victory.
B.The inspiration from Lincoln.
C.His eagerness for the prize money.
D.His desire to show himself on the stage.
27.What can be the best title for the text
A.Learn to fail successfully
B.Never mind others' judgments
C.Lincoln-my hero
D.Losing-an indescribable feeling
C
Me: Hello Dad! I've an exam today.
He: All the best son! I'm getting a strong feeling. You'll rock it today. May god bless you! Me: Thank you dad.
Bye!
And I hang up the call.
My friend standing beside me chuckles, "Do you do this before every exam "” I answer, "Yes, I feel good and encouraged, and so do they. "It hardly takes a minute to call up your parents, but it gives a lot of confidence and makes their day too.
Not calling up parents is indeed a common mistake college student make. For me the most common mistake is
treating it like school. When 1 went to university, most of the people around me came straight from school. They had
the thought like children who were being forced to do something. They skipped classes, sat at the back talking during lectures and even didn't do the reading! They were still in“school" mode, thinking that the point was to get through it with the least effort.
For my part, I was there after working in a beer factory for three years. 1 knew that I had gone to university
because I wanted to learn. I wasn't there because my teachers at school made me go, or my parents made me go, or because my friends were all going. I had chosen to go. I 7think that this put me in a different mind. I read all the set texts and I went to all the lecture sand seminars. Don't get me wrong. I had fun too, but I was there to learn and I learnt a lot. I enjoyed it and it was rewarding to learn about the authors, their works, the critic's opinions etc.
The kids around me thought that reading six novels for a module and going to a lecture foreach novel was too
much work. They would read one novel, go to the lecture for that one and write their essay on that one book. They thought that they were really clever to work out an easier way of doing it. But they were tricking themselves out of an education!
There are other mistakes that may cause future regrets for the college students. A large number of them focus too
hard on getting good grades, showing no interest in out-of-class side projects. Some complain that they are too busy because of school. As a matter of fact, they do not seriously treat all the free resources that universities have to offer. 28.The writer begins the passage with a dialogue in order to_
A.show off his writing skill
B.expect his friend to admire him
C.lead in the topic naturally
D.show he likes making phone calls
29.Why did the writer want to go to college
A.Because his parents forced him to.
B.Because he learned from his friend.
C.Because his teachers asked him to.
D.Because he was dying for knowledge.
30.What do the underlined sentences in Paragraph 5 mean
A.They lost their learning chances without noticing it.
B.They made up excuses for their laziness in learning.
C.They often pretended to be working hard at everything.
D.They told lies about what they were doing in college.
31.According to the passage, college students are supposed to .
A.stop being hard on themselves academically.
B.make the most of the university they go to.
C.have some relaxation after taking classes.
D.feel thankful for what they are doing now
D
Asthma(哮喘) and allergy (过敏) attacks have increased in the United States, despite the fact that our outdoor air quality has improved. Some researchers think these problems have increased because kids are spending too much time
indoors.
When outdoors, we are exposed to different kinds of pollen( 花 粉 ) and dust. But when indoors, we are also exposed to allergens( 过敏源). Allergens cause allergies and most people know that allergens can make you sneeze, have runny eyes, and other cold-like symptoms(症状). But allergens can also lead to asthma attacks, which are more serious. Asthma symptoms include coughing, shortness of breath, especially during exercise and tightness in the chest.
Allergic asthma affects about three million children(8 to 12 percent of all children) and seven million adults in the
United States each year!
You can get rid of the allergens from your environment! Most children with asthma are allergic to something, so staying away from the allergen should help control the asthma. If you have asthma or allergies, stay away from animals, remove the teddy bears, rugs and curtains in rooms that you spend a lot of time in. Removal of dusty things can help you breathe more easily. If it's trees and pollen that affect you, air conditioning and air filters(空气过滤器) should help.
And research helps, too! Children whose parents, brothers or sisters have asthma are more likely to develop it
themselves. But even though our genes do play some part in whether or not well have asthma, researchers hope to make the most progress in fighting the disease by looking at the environmental aspect (方面) of asthma. The hope is that if
高一 英语试卷
kids are exposed to fewer allergens early in . life, they'll be: less likely to develop allergic responses. Asthma research is performed at the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) and at the National Institute ofAllergy and Infectious Diseases(NIAID).
32.What makes asthma and allergy attacks increase in the United States
A.Poor outdoor air quality.
B.Not enough outdoor time.
C.Too much pollen and dust.
D.The decrease of people's physical condition.
33.What can we know in the second paragraph
A.Allergens in home environment can affect our health.
B.The number of allergens in the average home has decreased.
C.Asthma symptoms are the same as those of the common cold.
D.Allergens from outdoors are more dangerous than those in our homes.
34.What do we know from the passage
A.Allergies are more serious than asthma.
B.People do not get asthma when they are outdoors.
C.we should stay away from allergens to help control asthma.
D.Children whose parents have asthma are certain to develop it.
35.Where can you most probably find this passage
A.In a storybook.
B.In a news report.
C.In a travel guide.
D.In a health magazine.

As a senior year student, you may have so many pressures coming from so many directions that you can’t figure out what to do first.
36.
When you have many things to do and a lot of demands on your time, you can lose sight of what’s important. One of
高一 英语试卷
the best ways to see the big picture – what you want out of life – is to lay out your goals.
Pressure Points and How to Deal With Them
Confused or overwhelmed -- 37.. Discuss your concerns with a friend, parent or teacher. They may help you find solutions to your problems and worries.
Being too hard on yourself – ease up, take a break and do something you enjoy. Daydream, read a book, go out with
friends – anything that helps you relax.
Problems, problems, problems – recognize your limits. It’s too stressful to try to deal with all your problems at once. 38.
Goal-Setting Tips
It’s important to remember that goals belong to you – not to your parents, your teachers, or your friends. After you’ve set your goals, identify the skills you have to achieve those goals. 39., do some research. Try the library, your guidance
adviser and teachers, and other people who could help you.
40.. If your goal is something you no longer want, change it. Identify the barriers to getting your goals. Consider
ways to overcome them. Don’t get depressed by a big, long-term goal – see what steps you can take to achieve it and set those steps down as short-term, “do-able” goals.
A.Too much to do
B.If you’re not sure what skills you’ll need
C.talk to someone you trust
D.Goals exist to serve you
Balancing goals in life
Choose what’s most urgent and set aside the rest until later
G. As long as you know what skill is important and what isn’t

Her name was Mrs Thompson. And as she stood in front of the 5th grade class on the very first day she looked at her students and said that she loved them all the same. But that was impossible because there in the front row was a
little boy named Teddy Stoddard. Mrs Thompson had watched Teddy the year before and noticed that he didn't play well
with the other children, that his clothes were messy and that he constantly needed a bath. She paid no attention to Teddy.
However, when she read his file, she was in surprise. Teddy's first grade teacher wrote,“Teddy is a bright child with a ready laugh. He does his work neatly and has good manners...he is the joy to be around. ”His second grade
teacher wrote,“Teddy is an excellent student, well liked by his classmates. But he is troubled because his mother has a
deadly illness and life at home must be a struggle. ” His third grade teacher wrote,“His mother's death has been hard on him. He tried to do his best but his father doesn't show much interest. ” Teddy's fourth grade teacher wrote, “ Teddy
is withdrawn and doesn't show much interest in school. He doesn't have many friends and sometimes sleeps in class.”
By now, Mrs Thompson realized the problem and she was ashamed of herself. She thought that she could make a difference
She felt even worse when her students brought her Christmas presents, wrapped in beautiful paper and tied with
pretty ribbons, except for Teddy's. His present was clumsily wrapped in the heavy, brown paper that he got from a grocery bag. Mrs Thompson opened it in the middle of the other presents. Some of the children started to laugh when she found a stone bracelet(手镯) with some of the stones missing, and a bottle that was one-quarter full of perfume(香
水).
注意:
续写词数应为150 左右

第一节:
Dear John,
I’m Li Hua, one of your schoolmates. I’m sorry to hear that you are lonely in this new school. Now I’d like to offer you some suggestions.
First, it’s normal for you to feel lonely, because you are living in an entirely new environment. Second, you’d better take an active part in class and after school activities, which can help your
classmates learn more about you. Don’t be afraid to show people what you are really good at. It’s easier to make friends when you have similar interests. Third, I’d like to be your friend and I invite you to come to my home on weekends. My mother can cook delicious food and you’ll enjoy it.
I hope everything will be fine with you in the future.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节:
Mrs Thompson, whose voice choked up with tears, thanked her students for their presents.
And then she showed how she liked Teddy's presents, putting the bracelet on,and using some of the perfume on her wrist. From then on, Mrs Thompson paid particular attention to Teddy. As
she worked with him, his mind seemed to come alive. The more she encouraged him, the faster
he responded and he showed much interest in study. By the end of the year, Teddy had become one of the excellent children in the class.
Ten years later, Teddy invited Mrs Thompson to attend his wedding as his mother. She used
the bracelet and the perfume which were the present of that year. At the wedding ceremony, she met the man with good manners. He said to her, “Thank you, Mrs Thompson. Today you smelled just like my mom used to.” Mrs Thompson, with tears in her eyes, whispered back. She said, “Teddy, you were the one who taught me that I could make a difference. I'm so proud that today I can be your mother!”
