Ⅲ.阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)
A
What does an astronaut(宇航员)eat in space?This is a question that will puzzle many,as people rarely think of that.In the early space-travel years,astronauts ate dehydrated(脱水的)foods that were eaten through straws(吸管).In today's space age,the foods that they eat are totally different.They eat foods in the same way as people do on the earth.
Astronauts are able to prepare and eat a variety of foods in space.Some can be eaten in their natural form,like fruits,while some need to add water,like noodles.However,there are no refrigerators,so the foods have to be prepared and eaten without being stored for a long time.When the astronauts are hungry,they simply eat the foods by opening the food packages and with a fork,knife and spoon.
Just like people on the earth,astronauts also eat three meals a day which include breakfast,lunch and dinner.Sometimes they also eat snacks.The US space agency NASA has found out that an astronaut's diet reduces by about 70% on a space mission,though he has a wide range of foods to choose from like nuts,chicken,beef,seafood,and candies.Drinks in the spaceship include coffee,tea,juices,and lemonade.
Astronauts can also request a particular food that they would like to have in space.Scientists are always experimenting and trying out different space foods that can be offered to astronauts when on space missions.
36.Now astronauts eat________in space.
A.dehydrated foods
B.foods as people eat on the earth
C.totally different foods
D.foods with a lot of water
37.The foods the astronauts prepare________.
A.can't be stored for a long time
B.can be put into refrigerators
C.can't be eaten in their natural form
D.can't be kept in the food packages
38.Like people on the earth,in space,astronauts________.
A.only have nuts,chicken and beef
B.only have lunch for a day
C.only drink coffee,tea and lemonade
D.also eat three meals a day
39.What are scientists trying out?
A.Some very special snacks.
B.How astronauts can sleep well.

There are many opportunities for success around us.But it all depends on how you look at them and what you are looking for.
It is important that you understand successful people are not born that way, but they make things that way.There are so many successful people who started at the bottom and made it to the top.They can make things happen through their strong will and honest effort.
Condoleezza Rice was born in 1954 and grew up in the deep south of Birmingham, Alabama under very hard and unfair times of segregation(种族隔离).Her parents taught her that an education would provide her with protection against things like poverty and prejudice.She went to college at the age of 15 and graduated at the young age of 19 from university.And she had been the US Secretary of State.
Success in anything takes hard work and long lasting focus combined with an end goal in order to bring about the things you want. Nothing from nothing still leaves nothing whatever way you choose to consider the situation.If you put nothing into your life, you will get nothing back in return.If you decide to take the low road, then you will get low road results.This is the law of nature that cannot and will never be changed.
Life will treat you the way you treat it and yes, you will reap what you sow.
40.According to the author, success comes from________.
A.attitudes and goals
B.richness and honesty
C.appearances and gifts
D.opportunities and education
41.Successful people are those who________.
A.make good use of others' support
B.gain protection from their parents
C.have strong will and honest effort
D.are born at the bottom of the society
42.From the passage we can infer that Rice________.
A.was born in the deep north of Birmingham
B.was clever and had strong will
C.went to college at the age of 19
D.didn't suffer from segregation
43.What can we conclude from the last paragraph?
A.We are examples to our children.
B.Low road will lead to low results.
C.There are few laws of nature.
D.Nothing in our life is free.
C
If you want to teach your children how to say sorry, you must be good at saying it yourself, especially to your own children.But how you say it can be quite tricky.
If you say to your children, “I'm sorry I got angry with you, but...”, what follows that “but” can make the apology ineffective:“I had a bad day” or “your noise was giving me a headache” leaves the child who has been injured feeling that he should be apologizing for his bad behavior.
Another method by which people appear to apologize without actually doing so is to say “I'm sorry you're upset”; this suggests that you are somehow at fault for allowing yourself to get upset by what the other person has done.
These pseudo-apologies(虚假道歉) are used by people who believe saying sorry shows weakness.Parents who wish to teach their children to apologize should see it as a sign of strength, and therefore not turn to these pseudo-apologies.
But even when presented with examples of true regret, children still need help to become aware of how difficult it is to say sorry. A three-year-old might need help in understanding that other children feel pain just as he does, and that hitting a playmate over the head with a heavy toy requires an apology.A six-year-old might need reminding that spoiling other children's expectations can require an apology. A 12-year-old might need to be shown that taking away the biscuit tin without asking permission is acceptable, but that borrowing a parent's clothes without permission is not.
44.If a mother adds “but” to an apology,________.
A.the child may find the apology easier to accept
B.the child may feel that he should apologize to his mother
C.she doesn't realize that the child has been hurt
D.she doesn't feel that she should have apologized
45.According to the author, saying “I'm sorry you're upset” most probably means ________.
A.you have a good reason to get upset
B.I apologize for hurting your feelings
C.I'm wrong for making you upset
D.I know you're upset, but I'm not to blame
46.We can learn from the last paragraph that in teaching children to say sorry________.
A.their ages should be taken into consideration
B.parents should be patient and tolerant
C.parents need to set them a good example
D.the difficulties involved should be taken no notice of
47.It can be inferred from the passage that apologizing properly is________.
A.not necessary among family members
B.a sign of social progress
C.not as simple as it seems
D.a matter calling for immediate attention
D

According to the study carried out by experts at Massey University School of Educational Studies, watching preferred movies helps children learn.Scientists say that parents no longer have to worry about their children spending a lot of time at home since by watching their favorite movies they exercise their mind.
In order to focus on kids' behavior and their depth of understanding when watching a film, Brian Finch, a lecture at Massey University School of Educational Studies decided to use the second movie from the Harry Potter series, entitled Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.
The scientist states that watching the movie is just as educational as reading the book of J.K.Rowling, whose boy wizard motivated a lot of children to start reading books once again.
A survey among school children found that Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets was the most popular movie among children with 17 kids saying they watched it for at least 10 times.
“Kids identify_with Harry.He is not a superhero and like us, he's not top of the class or the best at ordinary things but he has these unusual talents we would like to have.”
The release of Massey University School said that pairs of children who watched the film at a kid's home were videoed and scientists noticed different practices in viewing.There were pairs who talked and gestured to the display and each other and there were pairs who were saying little all the way through the movie.
It was said that children's gestures were not performed only at the literal level of imitating the action of the movie characters but also “at the personalized engagement level where they physically elaborated (详细描述 ) on characters' emotional states which were not being overtly(明显地)expressed on screen.”
52.One of the reasons why Brian Finch chose the second movie from the Harry Potter series is that________
A.it can play an educative role
B.he likes the movie very much
C.there is a boy wizard in it
D.it is adapted by J.K.Rowling
53.How did scientists conduct the survey?
A.By asking kids about their ideas for the movie.
B.By taping kids when they were watching the movie.
C.By asking parents about their kids' attitude to the movie.
D.By recording kid's conversation when they were watching the movie.
54.The underlined phrase“identify with” in Paragraph 5 can be best replaced by“________”.
A.have the same feelings as
B.are recognized by
C.offer support to
D.show sympathy for
55.We know from the last paragraph that while watching preferred movies, kids________.
A.talk about the characters' stories
B.learn some body languages and idioms
C.can have a deep understanding of the characters
D.can practice their spoken English with their partner
Ⅳ.任务型读写(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)
Note-taking is very useful and necessary in our study and daily life.First, the advantage of note-taking is that it forces you to think for yourself at least twice—once when you are reading and the other when you are using them.Second, note-taking also helps you to remember what you have read.It is much easier to remember what you have said in a note than what someone else has said in a book.
However, how to write notes? There are two ways to write notes.One is to write notes in complete sentences.The other is to write notes in topical phrases.Even though a sentence note is as short as a topical note,a topical note is much better than a sentence one. The sentence note tends to limit your thinking to your thought expressed by it.The topical note, on the other hand, tends to raise a question in your mind.Such thinking may lead you beyond the thinking of the author who first caused you to write the note.
Remember that the purpose of taking notes is always for some future use, often for some future writing that you will do. Notes that make you think as you write are better than notes that merely help you remember information. So you are expected to learn to take topical notes while reading a book or listening to a talk.
Title:On 56.________
Note-taking

To take topical notes while reading a book or listening to a talk

9.A offer作名词讲时可意为“提议,提供”;B项意为“服务”,通常用于服务性的行业所提供的服务;C项不符合句意;D项意为“建议”,也不能用于此处。

11.B 句意:飓风过后,倒下的树堵住了公路,造成了严重的交通堵塞。此处表示动作已经完成,故用过去分词作定语修饰trees,B项符合题意。

35.C 文中讲到两人有着对rock music的共同爱好,因此可得此答案。
36.B 细节理解题。根据文章第一段最后一句可知B项正确。
37.A 细节理解题。根据文章第二段第三句可知在太空宇航员吃的食物不能储存太久了,因此A项正确。
38.D 细节理解题。根据文章第三段第一句可知宇航员也是一日三餐,因此D项正确。
39.C 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段的最后一句可知科学家们正在尝试为宇航员做不同的太空食物,因此C项正确。
40.A 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句可知,作者认为成功取决于你怎样看待机遇和你的追求,即态度和目标。
41.C 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句可知,成功的人是通过坚强的毅力和真正的努力达成目标的。
42.B 推理判断题。根据第三段的描述可知,Rice出身贫寒,无家庭背景,完全凭借自己的努力在19岁大学毕业。由此可推知,她既聪明又有决心和毅力。
43.D 推理判断题。最后一段谈到“你怎样对待生活,生活就会怎样对待你。”再联系上一段的内容可推知,D项正确。
44.B 细节理解题。根据文章第二段可知,如果一位母亲在道歉的时候加上but,那么会让孩子觉得他应该为自己的行为道歉,故应选B项。
45.D 推理判断题。根据文章第三段可知,当一个人说“I'm sorry you're upset.”的时候,这就意味着他并不是在真正地道歉,也就是说他认为对方难过与自己无关,故应选D项。
46.A 推理判断题。文章最后一段分别讲述要教三岁的小孩、六岁的小孩以及十二岁的小孩要为哪些事道歉,所以在教小孩道歉的时候要考虑他们的年龄。
47.C 推理判断题。文章介绍了道歉时需要注意的一些事项,由此可知,适当地道歉并不像看起来那样简单。
【语篇解读】 本文为一篇信息材料类说明文。文章介绍的是一个对美国老年人进行的健康习惯的调查结果以及专家给出的对策。
48.D 细节理解题。根据文章内容可知,美国老年人多数没有好的习惯,故A项错误。30%是每天洗4次手人数的比例,而不是每周洗澡三天人数的比例,故B项错误。根据第三个问题下Finding的内容“Seniors are not fighting germs as well as they should.”可知C项错误。根据第一个问题下Finding的内容“A full 33% of seniors brush their teeth only once a day.”可知D项正确。
49.D 推理判断题。根据wash their hands可锁定第二个问题下的内容,根据“And nearly 30%wash their hands only 4 times a day—half of the number doctors recommend.”可知,每天洗手四次只是医生建议的一半,由此可推知,医生建议的次数是每天8次。故选D项。
50.C 细节理解题。文章只是建议老年人要勤洗手,因为手每天接触脸约三千次,然后接触口、鼻、眼睛,这样就会将细菌带到这些部位,显然,问题的症结是避免未洗净的手接触口、鼻、眼睛等易被细菌感染的部位,而不是脸部,故A项不正确;B项中的less than 300与第一个问题下“Remove the 300 types of bacteria in your mouth...”有出入,故B项不正确;根据第二个问题下的“Use toilet paper to avoid touching the door handle.”可知,问题在于门把手上有大量细菌,会传到手上,而不是手上的细菌传到门把手上,故D项也不合适。根据最后一段中的“Do you know it is not your toilet but your kitchen sponge(海绵)that can carry more germs than anything else?”可知C项正确。
51.B 推理判断题。本题要求判断文章的出处,此类试题一般结合文章的内容和格式综合考虑。本文显然不是书评(a book review),也不是官方文件(an official document)。A项有较强的干扰性,但本文主要是面向公众的科学知识普及,而不是生活指引。故选B项。
52.A 细节理解题。由第二、三、四段可知,被专家所选的电影必须具备两个条件:一是孩子们喜欢看这部电影;二是这部电影必须有教育意义。
53.B 细节理解题。科学家通过观测孩子们看电影时的反应进行研究。
54.A 词义猜测题。根据第五段孩子们所说的话可知,孩子们觉得他们在某些方面与哈利·波特有相同之处。
55.C 推理判断题。孩子们看电影时不仅仅模仿人物的外在的语言和动作,而且他们能形象地展现人物的情感状态。

Dear_Mr_Green,
I am very excited to learn that we are going to start a magazine together. It is indeed a wonderful idea and everyone hopes for its success.
I would like the magazine to have three columns:News, Teachers' Advice and Students' Voice. From the News column we can learn about what is going on in our school.In Teachers' Advice, our teachers can give us such help as we may not be able to get in the classroom.Students' Voice will allow us to freely express our thoughts and feelings about our lives and studies.
I believe that this magazine will surely strengthen our ties,and I am looking forward to reading it.

The Internet is not perfect.There are many problems with it.

Some businessmen cheat people on the Internet.Internet thieves can steal credit card numbers.Some advertisers send spam to e-mail boxes.E-mail boxes are often filled with these unwanted advertisements.

A virus can destroy the data a person has saved in computer files.A virus can cause a computer to crash.A virus can also reproduce itself!It can send copies of itself to everyone on a person's e-mail address list.Then these people's computers will have the same problems and can't work normally!

In most towns today, you can see teenagers standing over electronic machines with flashing lights, shooting at spaceships from other planets and dropping bombs on strange monsters (恶魔).The machines have names like Space Warrior, Dark Invader and so on.It used to be believed that damage was done only to those strange visitors from outer space, but now it seems that they are striking back.
Many teenagers like electronic games so much that they can't stop playing. They spend hours tightly holding the joystick (手柄) controls and constantly pressing buttons marked “fire”.They develop pains on their fingers because of the constant pressure.They play so much that the pains have no chance to cure properly.The rapid wrist movement required to guide the spaceship across the screen causes another problem: the muscles of the wrist and arm become so inflamed (发炎) and swollen (充血红肿) that they press against the bones. This condition is what doctors now call “Space Warrior's Wrist”.
Other strange aches and pains are also likely to affect the elbows and shoulders.
Another even more alarming problem is shown by the case of a 17-year-old girl which was recently reported in the British Medical Journal.She had been playing various kinds of electronic games for more than two hours a day.Her father repaired games and machines and she could use the cassettes and systems in his workshop as often as she liked.One day, after playing a game called Dark Invader, she lost consciousness (晕倒) and fell to the floor.
Doctors who examined her found she was suffering from an unusual illness caused by lights flashing at a particular frequency.

Ⅳ.阅读理解
(2013·安徽高考)Using too much water or throwing rubbish into our rivers are clear ways that humans can put our water supply in danger,but we also affect our water supply in less obvious ways.You may wonder how paving(铺砌) a road can lead to less useable fresh water.A major part of the water we use every day is groundwater.Groundwater does not come from lakes or rivers.It comes from underground.The more roads and parking lots we pave,the less water can flow into the ground to become groundwater.
Human activity is not responsible for all water shortages (短缺).Drier climates are of course more likely to have droughts (干旱) than areas with more rainfall,but in any case,good management can help to make sure there is enough water to meet our basic needs.
Thinking about the way we use water every day can make a big difference,too.In the United States,a family of four can use 1.5 tons of water a day! This shows how much we depend on water to live,but there's a lot we can do to lower the number.
You can take steps to save water in your home.To start with,use the same glass for your drinking water all day.Wash it only once a day.Run your dishwasher (洗碗机) only when it is full.Help your parents fix any leaks in your home.You can even help to keep our water supply clean by recycling batteries instead of throwing them away.
1.Which of the following is most likely to lead to less groundwater?
A.Using river water.
B.Throwing batteries away.
C.Paving parking lots.
D.Throwing rubbish into lakes.
2.What can be inferred from the text?
A.All water shortages are due to human behavior.
B.It takes a lot of effort to meet our water needs.
C.There is much we can do to reduce family size.
D.The average family in America makes proper use of water.
3.The last paragraph is intended to ________.
A.show us how to fix leaks at home
B.tell us how to run a dishwasher
C.prove what drinking glass is best for us
D.suggest what we do to save water at home
4.The text is mainly about ________.
A.why paving roads reduces our water
B.how much we depend on water to live
C.why droughts occur more in dry climates
D.how human activity affects our water supply

Ⅱ.1.B 句意:香港的回归具有重要的历史意义。historic adj.有历史意义的,符合语境。
2.C 考查not only...but also...结构。not only放在句首,引导一个句子时,要用部分倒装。A项时态错误,B、D两项不是倒装结构,故排除。

10.D keep in touch with和……保持联系,表示状态,get in touch with则强调动作,故选D。
11.C 本题考查的是“what+动词不定式”作know的宾语,其中又结合“do something with it” 这一搭配,因此本题的正确答案应为C。
12.A be up to为固定用法,在what引导的宾语从句中,what是谓语be up to的宾语,故只有A项正确。
13.A 分析前后句意可知空处应填入表示“拒绝”的词,选项中只有A项有此意。
14.B 句意:他通常显得很诚实。谁能想象到他做了这种事?fancy“想象”,其后跟v.-ing做宾语;him做doing的逻辑主语。
15.A 从对话的内容可知,双方是在打电话。hang on别挂断,是常用的打电话用语,故选A。
Ⅲ.1.D 根据下文“因为车上没有坐满乘客,所以司机没有打算发动汽车”。intend to do sth.意为“打算做某事”,符合题意。
2.B 司机没有打算发动公共汽车是因为还没有坐满人。full意为“满的”,符合题意。
3.A 从下文“she stopped crying”可知,中年女子讲的时候“流着泪”。tearfully意为“含着眼泪地”,符合题意。
4.C 被偷的是具体的东西,fare,possession和wealth都是抽象概念;而且下文提到了钱被偷了的事。
5.D 中年女子把钱分别放在了两个地方,其中放在衬衫下的钱还在,所以因此感到“庆幸”。
6.C 钱被偷了,肯定是“不高兴的”。
7.A 当乘务员向老者收取车票钱时,他已经没有钱付费了,并向乘务员“解释”说自己因为上错了车而把钱用完了。
8.A 老人没有钱付费,乘务员叫他“下车”。
9.A 老人需要乘那趟车回家,而乘务员却叫他下车,所以他“恳求”她让他坐车回家。
10.D 乘务员让老人下车是一种“命令”。司机这时过来帮腔,命令老人下车。
11.D 中年女子出面干预是在司机和乘务员提高嗓门赶老人下车的时候,用when引导时间状语从句。
12.B 司机和乘务员赶老人下车属于“打扰,烦扰”的行为。
13.C 由司机之前的行为及说“He doesn't have any money!”的语气可判断出,他这句话是“喊”出来的。
14.D 下文提到中年女子替老人付了车费,所以她觉得那不是不让老人乘车的“理由”。
15.C 放在衬衫里的钱是她被偷后“剩下的”钱。remaining意为“剩余的”,符合题意。
16.C 赶老人下车对老人来说是“困苦的,难以忍受的”,hard符合题意。
17.B smile与wear连用,表示“脸上带着微笑”。
18.A 中年女子因为帮助了老人而感到高兴,因此忘记了此前钱被偷的事。
19.C 在人生旅程中,来自陌生人的帮助能减轻(lighten)负担,改善心情。
20.B 用journey与本段开头的the road of life相呼应。
Ⅳ.【语篇解读】 本文为一篇议论文。文章讨论的是人类活动对于水供应的隐形影响。
1.C 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“The more roads and parking lots we pave,the less water can flow into the ground to become groundwater.”可知选C项。
2.B 推理判断题。根据第二段首句“Human activity is not responsible for all water shortages(短缺).”可排除A项。根据第三段最后一句“This shows how much we depend on water to live,but there's a lot we can do to lower the number.”可知D项不正确。本文强调的是减少用水量,而不是家庭的人数,故C项错误。根据全文的内容可推知,水浪费、水污染和水需求不断增长,解决水短缺问题需要付出大量的努力。故选B项。
3.D 写作意图题。最后一段首句“You can take steps to save water in your home.”为主题句,接下来从四个方面就steps进行了展开,即四个方法或措施。显然,本段主要是讨论我们在家里如何节约用水。故选D项。
4.D 主旨大意题。本文为议论文,文章开门见山直入主题:...clear ways that humans can put our water supply in danger,but we also affect our water supply in less obvious ways.讨论的是人类对于水供应的显性和隐性影响。第二段首句似乎将话题转入自然方面的原因,但接下来又将话题转回到人类自身方面——管理。第三段中的“Thinking about the way we use water every day can make a big difference,too.”以及第四段中的“You can take steps to save water in your home.”均指向的是人类行为对于水供应的影响。故选D项。

“I usually put my mobile phone in my bag, and I often feel like it is ringing when there actually is no phone call.Now I always want to keep it in my hand, being afraid that I might miss important calls or messages,” Miss Liu tells her doctor.
Miss Gu, a news worker, has to take her mobile phone with her all the time so as not to miss any calls from her office or readers.Gradually, she started to experience a great “panic” about her mobile phone.“Every night when I'm about to fall asleep, I often wake up with a start, feeling that my phone is ringing.Although I'm sure that I have turned it off, I still feel that it is ringing, clearly.”
The above phenomenon is what we call “mobilephone acouasm(幻听)”.The mobile phone has now become a “new organ” in a white collar's daily life, and “mobile-phone acouasm” has become a common phenomenon among office workers.
According to a report of the China Youth Daily, “mobile-phone acouasm” most likely results from people's dependency(依赖) on hi-tech products.It is associated with certain professions, such as salesmen, consultants and journalists.They use mobile phones almost continuously.Being in the “stand-by” state all the time, the strong psychological stress gives them acouasm.At the same time, a large number of this year's graduates are joining the family of acouasm sufferers due to the hard job-hunting experiences.
“You know that the rings are not from your phone, but you always take it out and have a look.This is subconscious(潜意识) from your body sending you a signal, telling you that you must take a break to reduce your pressure,” Professor Sun Li from Huadong Normal University explains.
There are many ways to solve the problem.The professor says that the key is to deal with pressure from work.“This is just a kind of self-protection;the most important thing is to find out the source of your pressure.And then take part in some activities that are not related to your work.You can do anything that can relax your body and mind.”
1.According to the passage, the phrase “mobile-phone acouasm” refers to________.

The world's biggest Internet search engine,Google,has proven once again to be king of the Web.Users can download“Google Wi?Fi” software and then enjoy free Wi?Fi service available in some US cities since last Tuesday.
Wi?Fi is short for“Wireless Fidelity”(无线上网).It allows laptop computers and personal digital assistants to connect to the Internet at high speed by radio signal.
A person with a Wi?Fi enabled computer can connect to the Internet when near one of the network's access points.The place covered by one or several access points is called a hotspot.Google has already set up two“hotspots” in the US city of San Francisco which provide a free Wi?Fi service.
The Wi?Fi technology even allows users to enjoy a free Internet phone service.Some scientists argue that Wi?Fi may replace mobile phone networks.
Wi?Fi is still limited to a few cities,where there are “hotspots”.But its capability(容量)of sending information has already done better than that of the mobile phone network,even that of 3G(Third generation telecommunication technology).Some scientists have started to call Wi?Fi 4G.
In addition to a high speed Internet connection,Wi?Fi has other advantages compared to mobile phones.Wi?Fi is global.The same Wi?Fi system works in different countries around the world.Different from using cell phones,you don't need to change computers to use Internet phones when you go to other places and most importantly,many Internet phones cost you nothing at all.
