Ⅲ.阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)
A
Last July, my 12－year－old car died on California's Santa Ana Freeway. It was an hour before sunset, and I was 25 miles from home.I couldn't reach anyone to pick me up, so I decided to take a bus. Not knowing the routes, I figured I'd just head east.A bus pulled up, and I asked the driver how far she was going.“Four more lights，”she said. There was another bus I could take from there. This clearly was going to be a long night. She dropped me off at the end of her route and told me which bus to look for. After waiting 30 minutes, I began to think about a very expensive taxi ride home. Then a bus pulled up. There was no lighted number above its windshield (挡风玻璃). It was out of service. But the door opened, and I was surprised to find that it was the same driver.“I just can't leave you here，”she said.“This isn't the nicest place.I'll give you a ride home.”“You'll drive me home in the bus？”“I asked, perplexed (困惑)．“No, I'll take you in my car，”she said.“It's a long way，”I protested. “Come on，”she said.“I have nothing else to do.”As we drove from the station in her car, she began telling me a story. A few days earlier, her brother had run out of gas. A good Samaritan picked him up, took him to a service station and then back to his car.“I'm just passing the favor along，”she said.When I offered her money as a thank－you，she wouldn't hear of it.“That wouldn't make it a favor，”she said.“Just do something nice for somebody.Pass it along.”

D．He perhaps would have to take a taxi.

C．neither clean nor beautiful
D．a little unsafe

As computers become more popular in China, Chinese people are increasingly relying on computer keyboards to input Chinese characters. But if they use the computer too much, they may end up forgetting the exact strokes(笔画) of each Chinese character when writing on paper. Experts suggest people, especially students, write by hand more.
Do you write by hand more or type more? In Beijing, students start using a computer as early as primary school. And computer dependence is more widespread among university students. Almost all their assignments and essays are typed on a computer.
All the students interviewed say they usually use a computer.
It's faster and easier to correct if using a computer. And that's why computers are being applied more and more often to modern education. But when people are taking_stock_in computers increasingly, problems appear.
“When I'm writing with a pen, I find I often can't remember how to write a character, though I feel I'm familiar with it.”
“I'm not in the mood to write when faced with a pen and paper.”
Many students don't feel this is something to worry about. Now that it's more convenient and efficient to write on a computer, why bother to handwrite?
Many educators think differently. Shi Liwei, the headmaster of a famous primary school in the capital, said, “Chinese characters enjoy both practical and aesthetic(审美的) value. But those characters typed with computer keyboards only maintain their practical value. All the artistic beauty of the characters is lost. And handwriting contains the writer's emotion. Through one's handwriting, people can get to know one's thinking and personality. Beautiful writing will give people a better first impression of them.”
To encourage students to handwrite more, many primary schools in Beijing have made writing classes compulsory(必修的) and in universities, some professors are asking students to turn in their homework and essays written by hand.
40．Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?
A．The Importance of Handwriting and Typing
B．To Type or to Handwrite

41．The students interviewed prefer to write using a computer mainly because________．
A．they are usually asked to e－mail their homework and essays
B．they can correct the mistakes they make quickly and conveniently
C．they find it not easy to remember how to write a character
D．computers have become a trend and fashion in China
42．The underlined expression “taking stock in” (Paragraph 4) probably means________．
A．getting bored with B．getting dependent on
C．becoming crazy about D．getting curious about
43．We can draw the conclusion from the passage that________.
A．more and more students will give up writing on a computer
B．writing by hand will give way to typing by computer one day
C．more and more students will pay attention to handwriting

Music is an international language.The songs that are sung or played by instruments are beautiful to all people everywhere.
Popular music in America is what every student likes. Students carry small radios with earphones and listen to music before class，after class，and at lunch. Students with cars buy large speakers and play the music loudly as they drive on the streets.

Have a brief and concise(简明) message that you can share with others.When you market yourself, you tell people who you are and what you can do for others. Plan well and practice your message.
In constructing ways for the people to notice and make connection with you, you must be open to them. Bear in mind that communication is a great opportunity to make an impact especially when you market yourself.

For high school leavers starting out in the working world, it is very important to learn particular skills and practice how to behave in an interview or how to find all internship(实习). In some countries, schools have programs to help students onto the path to work. In the Unites States, however, such programs are still few and far between.
Research shows that if high schools provide career－related courses, students are likely to get higher earnings in later years. The students are more likely to stay in school, graduate and go on to higher education.
In Germany, students as young as 13 and 14 are expected to do internships. German companies work with schools to make sure that young people get the education they need for future employment.
But in America, education reform programs focus on how well students do in exams instead of bringing them into contact with the working world. Harvard Education school professor Robert Schwartz has criticized education reformers for trying to place all graduates directly on the four－year college track. Schwartz argued that this approach leaves the country's most vulnerable(易受影响的) kids with no jobs and no skills.
Schwartz believed that the best career programs encourage kids to go for higher education while also teaching them valuable practical skills at high school. James Madison High School in New York, for example, encourages students to choose classes on career－based courses. The school then helps them gain on－the－job experience in those fields while they're still at high school.
However, even for teens whose schools encourage them to connect with work, the job market is daunting. In the US, unemployment rates for 16 to 19－year－olds are above 20 percent for the third summer in a row.
“The risk is that if teenagers miss out on the Summer job experience, they become part of this generation of teens who had trouble in landing a job, ”said Michael, a researcher in the US.
52．According to Robert Schwartz，________．
A．there is no need for kids to go for higher education in the US
B．students should get contact with the working world at high school
C．education reform should focus on students' performance in exams
D．teenagers in the US can't miss out on the summer job experience
53．What can be inferred from the text?
A．Unemployment rates for US teenagers remain high at the moment.
B．Students with career－based courses never have problems finding a job.
C．US companies work with schools to prepare young people for future employment.
D．High school leavers with no practical skills can't find a job absolutely.
54．What's the main idea of the text?
A．Arguments about recent US education reform.
B．Tips on finding jobs for high school leavers.
C．The lack of career－based courses in US high schools.
D．Advice for American high school leavers.
55．The underlined word “daunting” in Paragraph 6 most probably means________．
A．discouraging B．interesting
C．creative D．unbearable

(2013·泗县双语中学高一期中)Traveling to all corners of the world gets easier and easier.We live in a global village，but this doesn't mean that we all behave(表现) in the same way.
How should we behave when you meet someone for the first time? An American shakes your hand firmly while looking you straight in the eye.In many parts of Asia，there is no physical contact(接触) at all.In Japan，you should bow(鞠躬)，and the more respect you want to show，the deeper you should bow.In Thailand，people greet(问候) each other by pressing both hands together at the chest.In both countries，eye contact is avoided as a sign of respect.
Many countries have rules about what you should and shouldn't wear.In Muslim countries，you shouldn't reveal(显露) the body，especially women，who should wear long blouses and skirts.In Korea，you should take off your shoes when entering a house.Remember to place them neatly together where you came in.
In Spain，lunch is often the biggest meal of the day，and can last two or three hours.For this reason many people eat a light breakfast and a late dinner.In Mexico，lunch is the time to relax，and many people prefer not to discuss business as they eat.In Britain，it's not unusual to have a business meeting over breakfast.
In most countries，an exchange(交换) of business cards is necessary for all introductions.You should include your company name and your position.If you are going to a country where your language is not widely spoken，you can get the back side of your card printed in the local language.In China，you may present your card with the writing facing the person you are giving it to.

【参考范文】
I'm writing to tell about the discussion we've had in the recent class meeting about whether Senior One students should take a lot of tonics to keep fit.
Opinions are divided on the topic. Sixty percent of the students think it unnecessary to take any tonics.They hold the opinion that taking tonics will cause them to put on weight，which is bad for their health.What's more，the price of tonics is rather high.
However, forty percent of the students point out that Senior One students have a lot more homework to do every day.So many students get tired and tonics can help to refresh themselves.In addition，they can't afford time to have sports.
Personally, having right food is more important.The best way to stay healthy is to take exercise regularly.

The basenji is a central African hunting dog.It comes from a country called Chad，which is north of the Central African Republic.The basenji was well－known as the “silent dog” because for centuries no basenjis had ever been known to bark.Then at a dog show in London in 1953, a basenji actually barked.
As well as being clever, basenjis are known for their natural courage and are still popular hunting dogs in Africa.But in America people keep them mainly because they are gentle and full of fun.The basenji has an unusual habit: it washes itself all over like a cat. It is a middle－sized dog，16 or 17 inches high from the shoulder. It weighs about 20 pounds.A basenji's coat is short and silky.It may be brown, white, or gold, or a mixture of these three colours.

Whether it's a carol (圣诞颂歌)service or an evening of karaoke in the pub，many people will enjoy a good old sing－song this Christmas.Singing aloud will not just lift the spirits—it's good for your physical health as well. Filling the lungs with air, increasing the heart rate and getting blood pumping round the body faster can all help our physical health.
For the past few years Heart Research UK has been running a Christmas campaign aimed at getting people singing, simply for the benefit it can bring. The organizer of the campaign says singing is a safe, simple and social activity that everyone can enjoy. “Singing is linked to long life, stress reduction, and general health protection.It also brings a great amount of happiness.It is impossible to sing well with a long face because it affects your pitch(音高)．”
Professor Graham Welch，who leads the International Music Education Research Centre at the University of London, has spent more than 30 years studying the effects of singing. He says that singing is a form of exercise. It means we're also having a strong aerobic activity (有氧运动) when we're singing, which results in increasing the feeling of pleasure while decreasing that of stress.
“And communal singing—like in a singing group，a church service or even a sing－song in the pub—helps improve our sense of self－respect. It increases our sense of satisfaction with ourselves, a greater sense of feeling included.”
Helen Astrid，a singing teacher，also sees the great effects that singing brings. “It lifts us up on a spiritual level, it helps our self－respect ，and it's great for all ages from small kids to grannies—you can have a good sing and let_your_hair_down.”
But she warns people not to have too many beers or glasses of wine, though a glass may help them gather courage before taking to the stage during the holidays.
5．Heart Research UK holds a campaign to________．
A．encourage people to sing for God at Christmas
B．study the effects of singing on people
C．get people to sing and improve their health
D．bring happiness to people during holidays
6．The underlined part “let your hair down” probably means________．
A．feel at ease B．protect yourself
C. dress casually D. cover your nervousness
7．What can we infer from the passage?
A．Singing at Christmas is good for health.
B．One in a low mood is not able to sing well.
C．Experts have disagreement on singing.
D．Singing is the same as other aerobic activities.
8．Which is the best title of the passage?
A．Karaoke—Best Place for Singing!
B．Christmas—Best Time for Singing!
C．Singing—Healthy but Difficult
D．For Health—Let's Sing!

The Biggest Band in the World
The Beatles is probably the most famous pop group in the world.On radio stations across the world，a Beatles' song is being played every second of every day.The group broke up in 1970，but their music is still popular today.In fact，1966 was the group's most successful year，as the band released(发行)three new double albums，which sold over 20 million copies.Not bad for a band that split up in 1970!
The original group was made up of John Lennon，Paul McCartney，George Harrison and Pete Best，who began playing together in 1959.Three years later，in May 1962，the band signed a contract with the Parlophone Record Company.Before this，they were rejected(拒绝)by four record companies!
The Beatles' first single，“Love Me Do”，was released in October 1962.Two months before this，Ringo Starr replaced Pete Best as the drummer.The band's catchy tunes and simple love lyrics made them popular immediately.In 1963，the band became the first to have three No.1 singles and two No.1 albums in a row.
By the end of 1963，the Beatles had been the most popular group in Europe.They sold millions of records，and their fans copied their hairstyles and clothes.Their records were not available(可得到的)in America until December 1963，when their fifth single was released there.Within a month it was a US No.1.Their American record company quickly released their first four singles，and the Beatles set another record—the first group ever to hold the top five places in the American record chart at the same time.
During the next two years Europe and America went crazy for the Beatles.The group played hundreds of sell－out concerts all over the world.In August 1965，they set another record by playing to the largest ever concert audience—55，600 people.When they played their last public performance a year later，they had recorded a further eight No.1 singles in the US.From 1966 until 1970，the Beatles released six more albums and all of them went to No.1 in the charts.In 1970，the band split up.
Sadly，John Lennon，was shot dead outside his apartment building in New York in December 1980.The remaining three Beatles occasionally(偶尔)released new records.Nothing they do，however，can compare with the extraordinary work of the Beatles.
1．How often is a Beatles' song played on radio stations across the world?
A．Every second of every day.
B．One second of every day.
C．Every other second.
D．A second a day.

D．They have signed contracts with 4 record companies before with Parlophone Record Company.
3．What made the Beatles popular immediately?
A．Their first single “Love Me Do”．
B．The changing of Pete Best to Ringo Starr as the drummer.
C．The band's catchy tunes and simple love lyrics.
D．The singles and albums.

Ⅰ.1.attach 2.rely 3.earn 4.performances
5．familiar 6.pretended 7.broadcast 8.instrument 9.extra 10.attractive
Ⅱ.1.C 句意：过于重视那个消息是不明智的。attach...to“认为有(重要性、意义)”，符合题意。attract...to“吸引……”；devote...to“致力于……”；pay常用于搭配pay attention to，意为“注意”。
2．B 句意：孩子们昨晚表演得很好，观众都被他们的话剧吸引了。perform“表演”，符合题意。permit“允许”；pretend“假装，假扮”；present“颁发；赠送”。
3．B 句意：探寻遥远的星球上的生命是人类几千年以来的梦想。dream of“梦想”，符合题意。work out“设计出，计算出”；look for“寻找”；carry on“继续”。
4．D 句意：如果你对这个话题不熟悉，你可以写一些为你所熟知的东西。be familiar with熟悉……；be familiar to为……所熟知，故D项正确。
5．D 句意：杰克不能忍受同学们经常戏弄他。play jokes on“戏弄，跟……开玩笑”，符合题意。keep up with“跟上”；come up with“提出，想出”；take care of“照看，照顾”。
6．D 句意：如果你能够形成用英语思考和写作的习惯，你肯定能学好英语。form“形成”，form the habit of doing sth.“形成做某事的习惯”。cover“包括，覆盖”；move“移动，搬动”；avoid“避开”。
7．B honestly speaking＝to be honest“老实说；实话实说”，固定短语。句意：说实话，我不想和他交朋友。
8．A 句意：莉莉，你尽管相信我会为你保守秘密，我保证不会告诉任何人的。rely on sb.to do sth.“指望某人做某事”。
9．C break out(战争、火灾等)突然发生；break down抛锚，出故障；break up 结束，分手，解散；break into破门而入，突然……。句意为：会议11点结束。然后我们一起吃了午饭。所以C项合适。

11．C or so表示“大约”。about也可以表示“大约”，但要用在数词前。
12．A 句意：她妈妈进来时，她假装没有在看电视。pretend(not)to do sth.意为“假装(没有)做某事”，为固定搭配。
13．D be familiar with“熟悉……。”先行词是物，介词提前后引导词应该用which。定语从句改为简单句为：You are all familiar with the car.句意：你们都很熟悉的那辆车昨天晚上被盗了。
14．B 句意：海盗们说他们要让所有船只上的人都知道他们的要求。know与their demands之间是动宾关系，所以用过去分词作宾补。
15．A 句意：像其他孩子一样，我也盼着大人做所有的工作。复合名词grown－up中没有主体名词，变复数时直接在其后加 s，grown－ups。故选A项。
Ⅲ.1.C 到音乐厅来听乡村音乐的人应是乡村音乐的fans。而music people意为“音乐人”，不合文意。
2．A 上文出现了every Saturday，因此此处用one Saturday。
3．B 从后文看，黑人歌手首次在这里演唱，况且又非常成功，因此这一天是特别的一天。
4．D 由8空后面的“a black man”可知此处答案为black。
5．B 因为第一段已经提到了country music，并且下文也提到了，所以此处应用Country。
6．B 本句中的it是形式主语，代替后面的动词不定式，表语不宜用event或evening。A项look(外表，外观)和B项sight(景象，视野)中最佳答案为B项。
7．D 解此题时要注意词语的搭配。step onto the stage“走上舞台”；如果用介词to，则表示“走向舞台”。此处用onto更合文意。
8．A 由于黑人歌手首次在这里演唱乡村歌曲，对此人们感到没有把握。
9．C 上句说人们对于他是否能演唱成功心存疑虑，这句说他的嗓音把音乐厅的人们争取过来，两句是转折关系，故选C项。
10．B 解此题时既要注意语意，又要注意固定搭配：win over“把……争取过来”；flow over“在……上面流过”；think over “仔细考虑”。
11．B 他的歌声吸引了那儿的观众，即crowd；hall表示“大厅”；concert表示“音乐会”；singers表示“歌手”。
12．D before long意为“不久”，相当于soon，而long before指很久以前。
13．C star意为“歌星”，在这里指Charley 唱红了，成了红歌星。
14．B 依据“He spent his youth milking cows and picking cotton.”来判断，他是在农场上被抚养长大的。raise表示“抚养”。
15．D 从全文看，他当过棒球手并希望拥有一个棒球队，后来又成为乡村歌星。这说明他最初就没打算把务农当做自己的职业。
16．A 由后面的sing可以得出答案，Charley在当地一家夜总会唱歌。
17．C 他先干农活，后打棒球，那么该忘记的应是最近的职业。
18．D 本句表示“他接受了对方的建议”。career表示“事业”；change表示“变化”；order表示“命令”；advice表示“建议”。词组take the advice表示“接受建议”。
19．C 此处指唱片排行榜，故用record。
20．A 用still表示Charley过去是乡村音乐方面的大明星之一，现在仍旧是。
Ⅳ.1.A 从第一段第二句话“On radio station...being played every second of every day.”可知答案。
2．D 从第二段第一句可知A、B两项正确；下面一句可知C项正确；D项原文未提到，所以答案为D项。
3．C 从第三段第三句“The band's catchy tunes...made them popular immediately.”可知答案
4．B 倒数第二段第三、四句可知when指1965，a year later便知1966，所以答案为B项。
Ⅴ.1.We should not make our plan known to everybody. 2.They earned a living by doing housework for other families，for example，cleaning doors and windows. 3.He pretended to know much when I was talking with him about jazz. 4.I attached a red flag to the stone beside the hole to warn the passers－by. 5.I dreamed of being a musician when I was ten years old or so.
