Ⅲ.阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)
A
(2013·安庆高二质检)Everyone ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) needs friends.We all like to feel close to someone.It is nice to have a friend to talk，laugh，and do things with.Surely，there are times when we need to be alone.We don't always want people around.But we would feel very lonely if we never had a friend.
No two people ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )are just the same.Sometimes friends don't get on well.That doesn't mean that they no longer like each other.Most of the time they will make_up and go on being friends.
Sometimes friends m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ove away.Then we feel very sad.We miss them very much.But we can call them and write to them.It could be that we will even see them again.And we can make new friends.It is surprising to find out how much we like new people when we get to know them.
Families sometimes ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )name their children after a close friend.Many places are named after men and women who have been friendly to people in a town.Some parks are named this way.So are some schools.We think of these people when we go to these places.21·cn·jy·com
There is more good n ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ews for people who have friends.They live longer than people who don't.Why It could be that they are happier.Being happy helps you stay well.Or it could be just knowing that someone cares.If someone cares about you，you take better care of yourself.

Can you imagine your d ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )octor warning that taking a bath could be unhealthy？In the early 1800s，many doctors thought that bathtubs(浴缸)could carry diseases，so they advised against their use.The advice wasn't based on personal experience，because few of the doctors owned tubs.The White House did not even have a bathtub until 1851.
In the 19th centur ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )y，only one home out of six had a bathroom.A child took only one bath a week.On Saturday nights children all lined up for their turns to wash in a wooden tub in the kitchen.Mothers had to boil the water on the stove and carry it over to fill the tub.No wonder children could not jump into a tub as they do today.
When the first bath ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tubs were introduced，even their makers weren't sure whether the new fashion would last.They advertised their products as water containers that“could be used as bathing tubs.”
The bathtub became p ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )opular in America shortly after World War I．By then most middle class families had indoor taps.At first most tubs were made of wood，but as the popularity of the product increased，so did the creativity of tub makers.Before porcelain(瓷)tubs there were rubber ones like the plastic swimming pools kids use today.In the past few years owners often invited guests to see them.They told their friends how wonderful baths in these tubs could be.
Now doctors no lo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nger warn that bathtubs carry diseases.Instead they tell their patients about the benefits of frequent bathing.Maybe one of the best reasons why doctors encourage frequent trips to the tub is that bathed patients smell better!
39．The text is mainly about ________.
A．the history of bathtubs
B．the benefits of bathing
C．different opinions on bathtubs
D．the popularity of bathtubs
40．The doctors in ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the past were against using bathtubs because ________.
A．they thought bathtubs could cause diseases
B．bathtubs were too expensive for the common families
C．they didn't have enough personal experience
D．the children might hurt themselves in the bathtubs
41．Which of the following is TRUE according to the text
A．All the doctors were against bathtubs in the early 19th century.
B．The bathtub became popular when they were introduced to the market.
C．Many different materials can be used to make bathtubs.
D．Children prefer t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he bathtubs made of plastic to those made of porcelain.
42．It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ________.
A．all doctors have bathtubs in their homes
B．the doctors have realized the advantages of bathtubs
C．the doctors will make lots of money by advertising bathtubs
D．the patients should take a bath before going to see a doctor
C
Many years ago ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )，when I was fresh out of school and working in Denver，I was driving to my parents' home in Missouri for Christmas.I stopped at a gas station (加油站)about 50 miles from Oklahoma City，where I was planning to stop and visit a friend.While I was standing in line at the cash register (收款台)，I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas.
I took_off，bu ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car.I stopped and wondered what I should do.A car pulled up behind me.It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station.They said they would take me to my friend's.We chatted on the way into the city，and when I got out of the car，the husband gave me his business card.
I wrote him and his w ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ife a thank you note for helping me.Soon afterward，I received a Christmas present from them.Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.2-1-c-n-j-y
Years later，I drove to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) a meeting in a nearby town in the morning.In late afternoon I returned to my car and found that I'd left the lights on all day，and the battery (电池)was dead.Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership—a shop selling cars—was right next door.I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom.
“Just how friendly is ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Friendly Ford？”I asked and explained my trouble.They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it.They would accept no payment；so when I got home I wrote them a note to say thanks，I received a letter back from one of the salesmen.No one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you，and it meant a lot，he said.
“Thank you”—two powerful words.They're easy to say and mean so much.
43．The words “took off”underlined in Paragraph 2 mean ______.
A．turned off B．moved off
C．put up D．set up
44．What happened when the author found smoke coming out of his car
A．He had it pulled back to the gas station.
B．The couple sent him a business card.
C．The couple offered to help him.
D．He called his friend for help.
45．The battery of the author's car was dead because ________.
A．something went wrong with the lights
B．the meeting lasted a whole day
C．he forgot to turn off the lights
D．he drove too long a distance
46．By telling his own experiences，the author tries to show ________.
A．how to write a thank you letter
B．how to deal with car problems
C．the kind heartedness of older people
D．the importance of expressing thanks

Parents often ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers.But last summer，Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son：suddenly he seemed to be talking for more to his friends than to his parents.“The door to his room is always shut.”Joanna noted.
Tina and Mark no ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ticed similar changes in their 14 year old daughter.“She used to cuddle up(蜷伏)with me on the sofa and talk，”said Mark.“Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady.The problem is figuring out which time is which.” 21*cnjy*com
Before age 11，childre ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n like to tell their parents what's on their minds.“In fact，parents are first on the list.”said Michael Riera，author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers.“This completely changes during the teen years.”Riera explained，“They talk to their friends first，then maybe their teachers，and their parents last.”
Parents who know wh ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )at's going on in their teenagers' lives are in the best position to help them.To break down the wall of silence，parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say，and try to find ways to talk and write to them.And they must give their children a mental break，for children also need freedom，though young.Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend，not a manager，with their children is a better way to know them.
47．“The door to h ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )is room is always shut”suggests that the son ________.
A．is always busy with his studies
B．doesn't want to be disturbed
C．keeps himself away from his parents
D．begins to dislike his parents
48．What troubles Tina and Mark most is that ________.
A．their daughter isn't as lovely as before
B．they can't read their daughter's mind exactly
C．they don't know what to say to their daughter
D．their daughter talks with them only when she needs help2·1·c·n·j·y
49．Which of the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )following best explains“the wall of silence”in the last paragraph
A．Teenagers talk a lot with their parents.
B．Teenagers do not want to understand their parents.
C．Teenagers do not talk much with their parents.
D．Teenagers talk a little about their own lives.
50．What can be learned from the passage
A．Parents are unhappy with their growing children.
B．Parents have suitable ways to talk with their teenagers.
C．Parents should be patient with their silent teenagers.
D．Parents should try to understand their teenagers.
Ⅳ.任务型阅读(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分)
Teamwork is just as ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) important in science as it is on the playing field or in the gym.Scientific investigations(调查)are almost always carried out by teams of people working together.Ideas are shared，experiments are designed and results are evaluated and shared with other investigators.Group work is necessary，and is usually more productive than working alone.
Several times thr ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )oughout the year you may be asked to work with one or more of your classmates.Whatever the task your group is assigned，a few rules need to be followed to ensure a productive and successful experience.
What comes first i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s to keep an open mind，because everyone's ideas deserve consideration and each group member can make his or her own contribution.Secondly，it makes a job easier to divide the group task among all group members.Choose a role on the team that is best suited to your particular strengths.Thirdly，always work together，take turns，and encourage each other by listening，clarifying，and trusting one another.Mutual support and trust often make a great difference.
Activities like inv ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )estigations are most effective when done by small groups.Here are some more suggestions for effective team performance during these activities：Make sure each group member understands and agrees to the task given to him or her，and everyone knows exactly when，why and what to do；take turns to do various tasks during similar and repeated activities；be aware of where other group members are and what they are doing so as to ensure safety；be responsible for your own learning，though it is by no means unwise to compare your observations with those of other group members.
When there i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s research to be done，divide the topic into several areas，and this can explore the issue in a very detailed way.You are encouraged to keep records of the sources used by each person，which helps you trace back to the origin of the problems that may happen unexpectedly.A format for exchanging information(e.g.，photocopies of notes，oral discussion，etc.)is also important，for a well－chosen method not only strengthens what you present but also makes yourself easily understood.When the time comes to make a decision and take a position on an issue，allow for the contributions of each member of the group.Most important of all，it is always wise to make decisions by compromise and agreement.
After you've comp ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )leted a task with your team，make an evaluation of the team’s effectiveness—the strengths and weaknesses，opportunities and challenges.

Ⅲ.阅读理解
Since we are soc ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ial beings，the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships.One strength of the human conditions is our possibility to give and receive support from one another under stressful (有压力的) conditions.Social support makes up of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties.Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to deal with major life changes and daily problems.People with strong social ties live longer and have better 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 support makes poor health more likely.21·世纪*教育网
Social support cus ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hions stress in a number of ways.First，friends，relatives and co workers may let us know that they value us.Our self respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others in spite of our faults and difficulties.Second，other people often provide us with informational support.They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them.Third，we typically find social companionship supportive.Taking part in free time activities with others helps us 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，material resources，and needed services—that reduces stress by helping us resolve and deal with our problems.21*cnjy*com
1．Interperson ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )al relationships are important because they can ________.
A．make people live more easily
B．smooth away daily problems

D．cure types of illnesses

A．lies in the social medical care systems which support them21cnjy.com
B．has much to do with the amount of support they get from others 21*cnjy*com
C．depends on their ability to deal with daily worries and troubles
D．is related to their courage for dealing with major life changes

A．takes place of
B．makes up of
C．lessens the effect of
D．gets rid of

Ⅳ.任务型阅读
(2012·扬大附中高二上期中)请认真阅读下列短文，根据所读内容在文后1～10的空格里填上适当的单词。(每空1词)21世纪教育网版权所有
The standard of living ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) of any country means the average person's share of the goods and services which the country produces.A country's standard of living，there fore，depends first and foremost on its ability to produce wealth.“Wealth” in this sense is not money，for we do not live on money but on things that money can buy，“goods”such as food and clothing，and“services”such as transport and entertainment.2·1·c·n·j·y
A country's ability ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) to produce wealth depends upon many factors，most of which have an effect on one another.Wealth depends to a very large degree upon a country's natural resources，such as coal，gold，and other minerals，water supply and so on.Some regions of the world are well supplied with coal and minerals，and have a fertile soil and a favorable climate；other regions possess perhaps only one of these things，and some regions possess none of them.The USA is one of the wealthiest regions of the world because she has vast natural resources within her borders，her soil is fertile，and her climate is of great variety.The Sahara Desert，on the other hand，is one of the least wealthy.【出处：21教育名师】
Next to natu ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ral resources comes the ability to turn them to use.Sound and stable political conditions，and freedom from foreign invasion(侵略)，enable a country to develop its natural resources peacefully and steadily，and to produce more wealth than another country equally well served by nature but less well ordered.
Another important f ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )actor is the technical efficiency of a country's people.Old countries that have，through many centuries，trained up numerous skilled craftsmen and technicians are better placed to produce wealth than countries whose workers are largely unskilled.
Wealth also pr ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )oduces wealth.As a country becomes wealthier，its people have a large margin(富余)for saving，and can put their savings into factories and machines which will help workers to turn out more goods in their working day.

Ⅲ.阅读理解
A
An American educa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tional expert，Frederick M．Hess says that a long summer vacation doesn't make sense in today’s world.【出处：21教育名师】
This summer,50 mil ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lion kids will spend much time talking online，watching TV，playing video games and asking older brothers or sisters to take them to the mall.They will also be putting their academic futures at risk.【版权所有：21教育】
During much of th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e 20th century，many Americans worked in factories that did not need a college degree but still offered a high wage.Also，in the 19th century，there was no air conditioning.And poor hygiene(卫生)meant that crowded schools had health risks.
Things have ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )changed.For today's students，academic skills are key to future success.Many nations don't give kids an American style summer vacation.They offer no more than seven consecutive(连续的)weeks of vacation.Most American school districts offer up to 13 weeks.To compete in the global marketplace，Americans must be prepared to go up against international competitors.21·世纪*教育网
Summer vacat ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ion also causes challenges for today's families.In the 1960s，more than 60%of families had a stay at home mum.Now，two thirds of American children live in families where every adult works.For these families，summer vacation can be more burden than break.Someone must watch the kids.
But the biggest ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )problem may be how summer vacation hurts academic achievement.Scientists have found that disadvantaged students lose important ground in the summertime.
A longer school y ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ear can allow time limited teachers to conduct richer and more imaginative lessons.Schools would have more time for sports，languages，music and the arts.

A．One. B．Two.
C．Three. D．Four.
B
Watson entered Mr. ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Smith's office.The Boss was a hard man.He fired people who didn't do well without giving them a second chance.
“Watson，”said Mr. ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Smith，“this past year your department hasn't earned money.We're going to drop that department.It's finished.I'm sorry，－but you'll have to go.”“But，sir－if I just had a little more time.For the moment I need the job to keep my son at Riverside School.”
“What's that！”said ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the Boss.“Riverside！I didn't know you had a boy there.That's an expensive school for a man with your salary.”
“I know，sir.But ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he likes it there so much！He's a star trackman(田径运动员)and the best boxer in the school.The boys call him Champ(冠军)there.”
The Boss sat ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) perfectly still for a long time－a faraway(恍惚的)look in his eyes.Then，suddenly，he said，“We've got to close your department，Watson.But you'll take over a new job in another department.It means longer hours－maybe more pay.Now get out.You're here for life.”
Watson got out，with ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )surprise in his face.Then the Boss took a letter from the top drawer of his desk.It was Herbie's last letter from Riverside School－written a few days before he died.He had read it over and over again with sick pain.The letter read：
I can't say the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )boys here are any nicer to me than the others were.I guess it's the same everywhere when you're a cripple(跛脚的人)．But don't worry about me，Dad.They've got a good chemistry department here.And there's one boy here who is really great.He's a track star and boxing champ and just tops in chemistry.The boys call him Champ.He made them stop throwing my books around.And he knocked a boy down who hit me.He is the best friend I ever had.Dad，when I grow up，I want to do something for Champ.Something big－that he won't even know about.
Your son，
Herbie
