Ⅲ.阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)
A
Only a few people i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n Toronto have the luck to live within walking distance from their workplace. For the rest of us, commuting(乘车上下班) is a rather unpleasant daily necessity.
So how do you avo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )id a traffic jam in Toronto You can do it in the old way and listen to one of the radio stations that give regular updates about the traffic situation in Toronto's streets. Seeing the big picture of Toronto's traffic and knowing when and where heavy traffic occurs is a must. From my own experience, there are situations where a quick decision can help you make it in time for an event or a meeting. That's why we prepared three short videos showing the overall traffic situation in Toronto from dawn to night. You can click them and watch.
With the help of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )“Google Maps”， where you can watch the live traffic density all over the world and average traffic data based on past conditions, we were able to provide you with traffic maps for a typical(平常的) Friday.
Friday traffic in Toro ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nto is quite fast in the early morning, with only a few hot spots showing up at the major junctions(交叉点) at 7：00 a．m. The morning traffic jam starts light at 7：30 and the traffic gradually slows down to reach a breaking point at 8：30. The roads are quite free afterwards, only Allen Road is likely to be jammed around lunchtime from 11：30 a．m. to 12：00 noon. It comes as no surprise that Friday afternoon brings heavy traffic as early as 1：00 p．m., mainly on the Don Valley Parkway. You won't have a good time getting away from the city from 4：00 p．m. to 6：30 p．m., as there is a good chance to get caught in a traffic jam. The traffic in Toronto is quite heavy on a Friday night. I hope you will have a nice Friday night in the city and a safe journey home this Friday!

OTTAWA—Canada's wes ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tern city of Calgary is the world's best city when it comes to healthy living，local press reported Monday.21教育网
According to an ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )international survey by Mercer Human Resource Consulting, a London based consulting firm, Calgary was top of a list of 144 cities. It scored 121 points, just above Honolulu's score of 120. Helsinki and Ottawa followed at 119.5 and 118.5 respectively.

In America, the low ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )est scoring city was Atlanta, which was ranked 76th. Athens was the lowest scoring city in Western Europe, ranking 120th because of its air pollution. London was ranked 59th.

Many facts suggest th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )at children are overweight and the situation is getting worse, according to the doctors. I feel there are a number of reasons for this.
Some people bl ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ame the fact that we are surrounded by shops selling unhealthy, fatty foods, such as fried chicken and ice cream, at low prices. This has turned out a whole generation of grown ups who seldom cook a meal for themselves. If there were fewer of these restaurants, then probably children would buy less take away food.
There is another ar ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )gument that blames parents for allowing their children to become overweight. I agree with this, because good eating habits begin early in life, long before children start to visit fast food shops. If children are given fried chicken and chocolate rather than healthy food, or are always allowed to choose what they eat, they will go for sweet and salty foods every time, and this will carry on throughout their lives.2-1-c-n-j-y
There is a third re ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ason for this situation. Children these days take very little exercise.They do not walk to school. When they get home, they sit in front of the television or their computers and play computer games.Not only is this an unhealthy pastime(消遣), it also gives them time to eat more unhealthy food. What they need is to go outside and play active games or sports.21*cnjy*com
The above are the ma ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )in reasons for this problem, and therefore we have to encourage young people to be more active, as well as steering them away from fast food shops and bad eating habits.21教育名师原创作品
36．According to the te ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )xt, what kind of children may eat more unhealthy food
A．Those who often take exercise.
B．Those who often watch television.
C．Those who often have meals at home.
D．Those who often walk to school.
37．The author thin ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ks that children are becoming overweight because________.
A．their parents often cook meals for them
B．they are too busy to go out and play
C．they can't choose what to eat
D．there are too many fast food shops around
38．The word “steeri ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ng” underlined in the last sentence most probably means________.
A．forcing B．guiding
C．driving D．moving
39．The main purpose of the text is to________.

Ⅱ.完形填空
(2013·汕头高一检测)Most ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) people who travel from China to the US find that, despite having studied English for years, they have to “relearn” it upon arriving.
Words that we learned ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) in English classes are not__1__the same way here. To be part of the “melting pot”，__2__in English is not enough. You need an accent to stand out.
When I first came ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) to the US for graduate school, I was a__3__foreigner. I felt so out of place that I wanted to hide everything about me that was “__4__”. To talk like an American became one of my goals.
During my first ter ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )m as a teaching assistant(TA), my students__5__they could not understand me. I learned later from a study that this complaint was__6__among the US students with an international TA. It is called the “Oh, no！”syndrome(综合征)：“Oh, no! Not another international TA, and not that__7__again！”
So I imitated(模仿 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )) the way__8__speakers talk and, over time, I made such good progress that American friends started to__9__my English as having “almost no accent”. I took this as a sign of my success. Ever since, people have often mistaken me for someone from many__10__： the Midwest, the West Coast, China, Japan. Most frequently, people think I am from California.21世纪教育网版权所有
But then suddenly, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) conformity(一致) was no longer a praise：If I talk like an American, am I still Chinese If I lose my Chinese accent, do I also lose my cultural identity Am I denying my past by being__11__into a new culture
Now I__12__th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )at a person's accent is a permanent record of their past cultural experience and it is a__13__of one's exposure to diverse cultures.
As a fourth year stude ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nt in the US, I am no longer a nervous foreigner. My nervousness has been__14__by a desire to hold on to my cultural origins. Now I consciously add some Chinese “accent” when I speak. I do not wish to speak “__15__” English because I am proud of who I am.

Clearly they knew that at what time the train passed their homes and they made it their business to stand along the railway, wave to complete strangers and cheer them up as they rushed towards Penang. Often whole families stood outside their homes, waved and smiled as if those on the trains were their favorite relatives. This is the simple village people of Malaysia(马来西亚). I was moved.21·cn·jy·com
I had always traveled ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) to Malaysia by plane or by car, so this was the first time I was on a train. I did not particularly(特别地) relish the long train journey and had brought along a dozen magazines to read and reread. I looked about the train. There was not one familiar face. I sighed and sat down to read my Economics.2·1·c·n·j·y
It was not long before ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the train was across the Causeway and in Malaysia. Johore Baru was just another city like Singapore, so I was tired of looking at the crowds of people as they hurried past. As we went beyond the city, I watched the straight rows of rubber trees and miles and miles of green. Then the first village came into sight. Immediately I came alive; I decided to wave back.21·世纪*教育网
From then on my jou ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rney became interesting. I threw my magazines into the waste basket and decided to join in Malaysian life. Then everything came alive. The mountains seemed to speak to me. Even the trees were smiling. I stared at everything as if I was looking at it for the first time.www-2-1-cnjy-com
The day pass ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ed fast and I even forgot to have my lunch until I felt hungry. I looked at my watch and was surprised that it was 3：00 p．m. Soon the train pulled up at Butterworth. I looked at the people all around me. They all looked beautiful. When my uncle arrived with a smile, I threw my arms around him to give him a warm hug(拥抱). I had never done this before. He seemed surprised and then his weather beaten(饱经风霜的) face warmed up with a huge smile. We walked arm in arm to his car.
I looked forward to the return journey.

(2013·清远高一月考)The ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) Canadian red and white maple leaf(枫叶) flag is officially called the National Flag of Canada. The Canadian flag shows a stylized red maple leaf with 11 points on a white background, with red borders down each side. The Canadian flag is twice as long as it is wide. The white square containing the red maple leaf is the same width as the flag.21cnjy.com
The red and the wh ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ite used in the National Flag of Canada were proclaimed the official colors of Canada in 1921 by King George Ⅴ. Although the maple leaf did not have its official status as a symbol of Canada until the announcement of the national flag in 1965, it had historically been used as a Canadian symbol，and was used in 1860 in decorations for the visit of the Prince of Wales to Canada. The 11 points on the maple leaf have no special significance.
In the early days， ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the Royal Union Flag，or the Union Jack, was still flown in British North America. In 1925 and again in 1946, the Canadian Prime Minister Mackenzie King tried to get a national flag of Canada adopted, but failed. In 1964，Prime Minister Lester Pearson appointed a 15 member, all party committee to come up with a design for a new flag. The committee was given six weeks to complete its task.
The committee stu ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )died 2,000 submitted(提交的) designs as well as 3,900 that had been gathered as a result of the 1946 committee's study. Those designs with a chance of being accepted were given to the full committee for further study.
The suggestion of ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )a red and white single maple leaf design for the Canadian flag came from George Stanley, a professor at the Royal Military College. After a heated discussion，they finally decided on his suggestion.
1．How many colors are there in the National Flag of Canada

C．Three D．Four

2．D 事实细节题。由第 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )二段“...the announcement of the national flag in 1965...”可知。【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
3．A 细节理解题。由第二段“ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Although the maple leaf did not have its official status as a symbol of Canada until the announcement of the national flag in 1965...”可知A项错误。其余各项文中都有提及。21·世纪*教育网
4．D 猜测词义题。由第三段知，1964年成立了一个15人组成的专门委员会来设计国旗，此处做出最后决定的当然是指1964年的委员会成员。
5．B 主旨大意题。本文主要讲 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )述了加拿大国旗的历史。A项只是文中的细节，本文不是记人文章；C项也是细节，只在第二段有所涉及；D项文中没有提及。2-1-c-n-j-y
【语篇解读】 本文为记叙文。中国 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )在过去是自行车的王国，而现在仍然有很多人喜欢骑自行车出行，因为这种交通方式方便、省钱。为了融入这种文化，“我”也买了一辆自行车。但是在回家途中，发现骑车过街是最大的问题，需要时间、技巧和一点儿运气。但是骑行经历让“我”觉得很愉快、很有趣。
6．B 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Fo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r many，it's the easiest and cheapest way to travel today.”可知，自行车如今仍然很受欢迎，是因为它的便捷和经济。根据倒数第二段和倒数第三段的叙述可知，骑自行车并不安全，速度也不是很快，故A项和D项错误；文章虽然提到了自行车的颜色多种多样，但这并不是它受欢迎的原因，故C项错误。【出处：21教育名师】
7．C 细节理解题。根据第三段第 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )一句话“Eager to be part of this aspect of Chinese culture...”可知，作者购买自行车是因为迫切地想融入中国的这种文化之中，故C项正确。作者在有了骑行经历之后才发现了其中的乐趣，故A项错误；文章并未提到作者购买自行车是为了作为交通工具或者提高骑行技术，故排除B项和D项。【版权所有：21教育】
8．B 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的叙 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )述可知，骑车过街是最大的问题，需要时间、技巧和运气，因此作者认为骑车过街非常困难。其余选项均与本段内容不符。21教育名师原创作品
9．D 推理判断题。由最后一段可知，空气 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )吹拂脸颊和头发的感觉很美妙，骑行时就像坐在了世界的顶端，骑自行车使作者觉得充满了活力。由此可判断出，作者觉得骑自行车很有乐趣，故D项正确。A项意为“作者喜欢炫耀自己的骑行技术”；B项意为“作者很讨厌骑行时的空气”；C项意为“作者被其他骑行人员赞扬了”，均与文章内容不符。21*cnjy*com
Ⅲ.1.I don't like to mix business with pleasure.
