She is widely seen as ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )proof that good looks can last forever.But, at over 500 years of age, time_is_catching_up_with_the_Mona_Lisa．【出处：21教育名师】
The health of the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) famous picture, painted by Leonardo Da Vinci (莱昂纳多·达·芬奇)in 1505, is getting worse by the year, according to the Louvre Museum (卢浮宫博物馆)where it is housed.“The thin, wooden panel on which the Mona Lisa is painted in oil has changed shape since experts checked it two years ago，”the museum said.Visitors have noticed the changes but repairing the world's most famous painting is not easy.Experts are not sure about the materials the Italian artist used and their current(现在的) chemical state.
Nearly 6 million peopl ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e go to see the Mona Lisa every year，and many are attracted by the mystery of her smile.“It is very interesting that when you're not looking at her, she seems to be smiling, and then you look at her and she stops，” said Professor Margaret Livingstone of Harvard University.“It's because direct vision(视觉) is excellent at picking up details, but less suited to look at shadows.Da Vinci painted the smile in shadows.”
However，the actual his ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tory of the Mona Lisa is just as mysterious as the smile.Da Vinci himself loved it so much that he always carried it with him, until it was eventually sold to France's King Francis Ⅰ in 1169.
In 1911，the painting ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) was stolen from the Louvre by a former employee, who took it out of the museum hidden under his coat.He said he planned to return it to Italy.The painting was sent back to France two years later.
During World War Ⅱ， Fr ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ench hid the painting in small towns to keep it out of the hands of German forces.
Like many old ladies, ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the Mona Lisa has some interesting stories to tell.
1. The underl ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ined sentence in the first paragraph means the Mona Lisa________．
A．is losing its value
B．is being damaged after so many years
C．is getting more valuable with years passing
D．will rot away
2．The smile of the Mona Lisa can only be seen________．
A．by indirect vision B．at a distance
C．by direct vision D．in shadows
3．Which of the following is TRUE about Mona Lisa
A．It was once taken away and hidden up by German forces.21cnjy.com
B．Its painter himself loved it greatly and always kept it in a shade.www-2-1-cnjy-com
C．Mona Lisa stops smil ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ing when you look at her wanting to see her smiles.
D．King Francis Ⅰ bought it and then returned it to Italy.
4．From the last paragraph，we can infer that________．
A．many interesting stories have been written about the Mona Lisa
B．people are interested in the stories about the Mona Lisa
C．some mysteries still remain to be solved about the Mona Lisa
D．many more stories will be told about the Mona
Lisa

The State of Color ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ado has four of the best parks out of the 58 national parks in the United States.The parks have some of the best scenery of all the national parks.
Black Canyon(峡谷)of Gunnison National park
This park offers the m ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ost breathtaking views from up in the mountains into the canyons below.While exploring the canyons，you will find that the walls drop nearly straight down into the narrow valleys of the snake－like rivers below.Visitors are offered more than 100 camping sites，and a lot of bird species and many animals are native to the area.
Rocky Mountain National Park
It is the only nationa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )l park in the north central region in the state of Colorado.Elevations in this park are anywhere from 8，000 feet to 14，259 feet at the top of Longs Peak.While traveling throughout this park you will notice two very different climates because of the difference the upper peaks of the Rocky Mountains make.You can enjoy 359 miles of hiking trails，a lot of places for camping，horseback riding and beautiful scenery.
Mesa Verde National Park
This is probably the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )most interesting national park，offering a fascinating trip back in time to 600 AD up to 1300 AD.This park was declared a protected national park in 1906 because of the cliff dwellings(住所)that were found throughout the area，which were once home to American Indians.Many of these dwellings can be walked through，while you imagine what each room may have been used for so many years ago.
Great Sand Dunes(沙丘)National Park
The Great Sand D ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )unes National Park lies in south central Colorado，about 127 miles from Pueblo.This park has the tallest sand dunes in all of North America and has trails for hiking.The natural sandy beaches around the small rivers and lakes are good for swimmers.

Ⅲ.阅读理解(共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)
A
Several years ago，I ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) needed a receptionist for my unit.Before I advertised for the position，I was approached by another manager Mr Jacobs，within the same division，and asked if I would consider a transfer(调任)from his staff.2·1·c·n·j·y
It appeared from his ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )description of this employee that she was having a lot of problems performing her duties，and had difficulties on a personal basis with her supervisor(主管)，and did not appear to respond to any attempts he，the manager，had made to settle the issues.
After listenin ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )g to his explanation，I really had severe doubts.What crossed my mind was that he wanted me to take a performance problem off his hands.I told him I would think about it and would let him know the next day.After thinking more about this potential performance issue，I decided that I would speak with the employee privately before I made any decision.
And what I found ou ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t during the interview made me think about it seriously.It turned out after speaking with her for over an hour that the performance issue appeared to result from working for a supervisor who never returned a good morning greeting，never gave a word of encouragement，and enjoyed finding fault.The end result was a totally upset employee who hated to see a new workday start，and who had considered quitting every day before she went to work.
The look on her fac ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e，the trembling hands，and the annoyed manner in which she spoke led me to believe she was being truthful.I decided to accept her transfer to my unit.What started out as a shy and frightened employee turned out to be one of the most productive and loyal employees I ever had the privilege of working with.I was more than happy to give her what she needed－praise for work well done，respect as a person，and encouragement to do well in anything she dealt with.
31．According to Mr. Jacobs，the employee ________．
A．showed no respect for him
B．was careless with her work
C．didn't get along well with her colleagues

A．he hoped to help the author out
B．he wanted to give the employee a better chance
C．he wanted to free himself from a troubled situation
D．the employee was the most suitable person for the position
33．We can infer from t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he fourth paragraph that the supervisor ________．
A．hated his own work
B．was a respectable leader
C．behaved in a cold manner
D．was not good at expressing himself
34．What would be the BEST title for the text
A．How to get on with your supervisor
B．Are you questioning your ability
C．How to become a good manager

Most children ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) usually talk in class when they are bored or frustrated because a concept is too difficult.Schools have to recognize the need for children to talk.
The educators in my s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )chool district recognize the need for children to talk.Our curricula embrace(contain)“active”participation.This means that during a lesson the students are expected to talk and interact in order to have the learning become a part of them.The children are expected to talk about what they are reading in their anthologies(选集)，to answer questions together.
There are certain tim ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )es when children need to meditate and digest what they've learned without talking.At these times，the children begin to think about social activities.
Children don't have mu ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ch opportunity to write，and many educators believe that children don't have the ability to express themselves when writing.The students in my class are allowed to converse but only in writing.If they are having a problem with a classmate，they write the problem out and give it to me.We then set up a conference and talk about the problem.We figure out ways that the problem can be solved.The writing is twofold(双重的)．It helps the child calm down and not be reactive and teaches children the way to use words to express themselves.
Talking is imp ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ortant，but just as important is knowing the appropriate times to talk.We do encourage our children to talk when they are small and they are used to expressing themselves.
My theory，as I t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ell my students，is that he or she who talks the most，will probably grow up to be a teacher.They，then，will be able to talk all the time and NOT get in trouble.
39．The educators in t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he author's school district recognize the need for children to talk by ________．

40．What's the author's opinion about writing in classes
A．Writing is a kind of conversation.
B．Writing wastes too much class time.
C．Writing can also keep students active.
D．Writing is very harmful to students' talking in class.
41．From the passage we can infer ________．
A．most children want to talk in class
B．students who talk the most will become teachers
C．some educators think writing can't express themselves clearly【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
D．encouraging stude ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nts to express themselves by talking at every time is beneficial
42．What's the best title of the passage

Tony Burke，Austra ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lia's environment minister，says he won't decide until next year whether the koala should be protected as an endangered species.He was expected to make his decision by the end of October.But that decision has been put off.Burke said he needed more time to go over the latest information about the koala's population.21教育网
In September，an ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Australian Senate committee reported that there was no question the koala's population is on the decrease.“But they may not yet be eligible(符合条件的)for listing as a threatened species，”said Senator Doug Cameron.“To have such a significant Australian icon(偶像)included on the threatened species list would be a national shame.”
The koala is found ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )only in the eucalyptus(桉树)forests of Australia.And its population is reported to have fallen sharply for many reasons，including the cutting down of forests to make way for human beings' development，their own illness，climate change and killings by other animals such as wild dogs.And every year many koalas are hit by cars as they are trying to cross the busy roads.
Putting off the d ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ecision on protection for the koala “is really bad news，”said Debbie Pointing，the president of the Koala Action Group.“We've worked tirelessly for many years to gather data on the populations，”Pointing said.“That data should be enough to make a decision.”
However，Burke poin ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ted out that the Australian government had spent at least $6.3 million on koala conservation efforts since 1996.Senators listed efforts that are already underway in Queensland－the construction of special koala bridges as well as fences along roads，to keep the animals out of harm's way.
Some people say tha ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )t is not enough.“What we're doing at the moment is likely to drive this species to extinction，”Queensland University zoologist Bill Ellis said.
“Koalas are ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )an iconic Australian animal，”Burke told Australians.“They hold a special place in the hearts of Australians.”
But it is a fact ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )that if more isn't done to protect the koala，they might soon hold a place only in Australians' memories.
43．Tony Burk ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e put off announcing the koala as an endangered species because ________．
A．he needed more time to examine the latest information
B．he doubted whether koalas' number is decreasing
C．he was thinking about ways to protect koalas
D．he had more important issues to deal with
44．What is Paragraph 3 mainly about
A．The habitat of the koala.
B．Australia's traffic problems.
C．The importance of koalas for Australians.
D．Reasons for the decrease of the koala population.
45．According to the text，Debbie Pointing thinks that ________．
A．the construction of special koala bridges is of little use
B．koalas are becoming less important in Australians'
hearts
C．the government is to blame for the decreasing koala population
D．the government should announce the koala as an endangered species
46．What is the main idea of the text
A．Australia puts off the decision on whether the koala is endangered.
B．Australia is taking special measures to protect koalas.
C．The population of koalas is reducing rapidly.
D．Australians are concerned about koalas.

The UK has a well ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) respected higher education system and some of the top universities and research institutions in the world.But to those who are new to it all，sometimes it can be confusing.
October is usual ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ly the busiest month in the college calendar.Universities have something called Freshers' Week for their newcomers.It's a great opportunity to make new friends，join lots of clubs and settle into university life.
However，having ju ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )st left the comfort of home and all your friends behind，the prospect of meeting lots of strangers in big halls can be nerve wracking(令人焦虑不安的)．Where do you start？Who should you make friends with？Which clubs should you join
Luckily，there ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) will be thousands of others in the same boat as you are worrying about starting their university social life on the right foot.So just take it all in slowly.Don't rush into anything that you'll regret for the next three years.
Here are some t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )op advice from past students on how to survive Freshers' Week：
?Learn rules.Make sure ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) you know British social etiquette(礼节)．Have a few wine glasses and snacks handy for your housemates and friends.
?Be kind.Sometimes ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) cups of tea or even slices of toast can give you a head start in making friends.
?Be sociable ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ).The more active you are，the more likely you'll be to meet new people than if you're someone who never leaves his room.
?Bring a doo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rstop.Keep your door open when you're in and that sends positive messages to your neighbors that you're friendly.So with a bit of clever planning and effort，Freshers' Week can give you a great start to your university life and soon you'll be passing on your experience to next year's new recruits．
47．Which of the fo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )llowing statements is FALSE according to the passage
A．October is generally the busiest month for universities.
B．It's a good idea to put a doorstop in your door.

综合检测(一)
1．C 考查词义辨析。manage设法做到； ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )succeed成功；attempt尝试；predict预计。句意：那个女孩试图弄清那个男孩对她的态度，不过没有成功。
2．A 根据上下文语境来看，应是表示“你能更具体一点吗？”specific特定的，具体的；abstract抽象的。
3．B 句意：借助先进的设备，如今提前预测 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )天气是一件容易的事。predict指根据事实做精密的预测；forecast指根据已知的情况，对事物的变化作出大概的推测和测定，主要用于预测天气；foretell指凭借自己的经验或猜测，预感将要发生的事；prefer宁愿，与句意不符。
4．D 句意：掌声足以证明这部戏剧很受欢迎。根据前面的掌声推知戏剧受欢迎，因此用evident，表示根据事实推出的合理判断。
5．A 句意：巧合的是我们碰巧乘坐同一趟火车 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )去同一个地方。by coincidence“巧合的是”；by mistake“错误地，无意地”；by accident“偶然；意外地”；by consequence“结果”。
6．B 考查短语用法。a gr ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )eat deal可单独使用，后接名词时加of。a great many，scores of 后要接名词。题干中无比较意义，故D项错误。
7．C 四个选项中，只有C项是与kind a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nd good－natured褒贬意味相反的词。从but看出选C项。clever“聪明的”；authentic“可信的”；aggressive“好斗的”；consistent“一致的”。句意：他表面上好与人争，而实际上却很善良厚道，因此，他有很多朋友。
8．A 考查名词的用法。句 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )意：——我听说亨利已经决定弃艺从商了。——是的，他很有天赋，但是他已经丧失了信心。failure意为“失败”；course意为“课程，路线”；case意为“情况，事实”，皆不符合句意。
9．A 考查动词辨析。句意 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )：学生对那个教授的报告不感兴趣，大多数都快睡着了。appeal to“吸引”，符合句意。belong to“属于”；adjust to“调节，适应”；lead to“通向，引导”。
10．C 考查短语辨析。go thr ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ough仔细检查；come up被提出；figure out弄明白；get over克服。句意：直到老师展示，小萨姆才弄清楚如何打印文件。
【语篇解读】 本文主要讲述了一个失足青年改过自新、创造美好生活的故事。
11．C 由上文的thought to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )myself：This isn't a life；it's just an existence可知，作者躺在床上脑子里反复出现同样的想法。21*cnjy*com
12．B 由下文的was in p ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rison for five years可知，作者在回忆当时是怎么犯错入狱的。go wrong表示“犯错误”。
13．D 由下文作者决定学习可知，他思考如何“弥补(make up for)”失去的时光。
14．A 由nothing cha ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nged except the people可知，狱中除了囚犯进进出出外，生活每天都是按部就班，一成不变。routine表示“例行，常规”。
15．C
16．B 这两句话是对上句中 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )提到的“监狱里除了不断有人进进出出以外犹如一潭死水”的具体描述：有人出去，或转往其它监狱或刑满“释放(set free)”。有人进来，或由不同的“监狱(prisons)”转来或新获刑。
17．C 由下文所述内容可知，是监狱生活“改变了( changed)”作者。
18．A lost与but后的句子形成对照——犯罪时是一个迷失的孩子，但是现在迷途知返。
19．D 正因为作者在狱中改过自新，因此服刑对他来说成了有意义的“经历(experience)”。
20．B 由作者的读写能力很差可知，作者以前没上过几天学，也就是说他上学的次数是“有限的(limited)”。
21．A 由下文中作者的改变可知，作者在放风时经常“注意到(notice)”其他狱友看书或写信。
22．D 显然I couldn't do the same是it upset me的原因，故选because。
23．B
24．C 由上文的“看到别人读书 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )、写信而自己不能心里很不是滋味”可知，作者“渴望(longed)”给家人和朋友写信，“向往(dreamed)”能坐在和煦的阳光下喝咖啡，读自己喜爱的书的好时光。下文中的The day I've longed for has come true也是提示。
25．B
26．D 由下文作者开始学习可知，他决定不再“浪费(waste)”在监狱的时光。总有一天，自己将能“正确地(properly)”读写。
27．B 由下文的for my help可知，作者作为一名阅读顾问，在“帮助(helping)”曾经像他那样的人读写。
28．C I have set up ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) a creative writing workshop是对上文内容的补充，故选Besides表示“此外，而且”。
29．B
30．A 得到帮助的人对作者很“感激 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )(grateful)”。作者也很高兴能够回馈社会。give something back此处表示“回报，回馈”。
【语篇解读】 本文是记叙文。一位前任经理认为很糟糕的员工在作者手下竟然表现得非常出色，这是源于鼓励、赞美与尊重的神奇力量。
31．D 细节理解题。由第二段中经理对这位员工的描述以及第四段中这位员工对她的主管的抱怨可知，她跟主管的关系很紧张并且不可调和。
32．C 推理判断题。由第三段中的 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he wanted me to take a performance problem off his hands可知，作者意识到这个经理给自己推荐他完全不看好的员工很可能是因为想把这个烫手的山芋扔给自己。
33．C 推理判断题。由第四段中的a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) supervisor who never returned a good morning greeting，never gave a word of encouragement，and enjoyed finding fault可知，这个员工以前的主管是一个态度冷漠的人。
34．D 标题归纳题。本文通过讲述 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )一位员工在不同的领导手下天壤之别的表现说明领导的管理艺术对员工的影响。D项以一个问题作标题，既概括了文章内容，又升华了主题，引人深思。
【语篇解读】 本文主要介绍了著名的小提琴演奏家Isaac Stern的一些经历。
35．A 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段的最后两句话可知答案。
36．D 细节理解题。根 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )据文章第二段的第一句话可知A项不正确；根据文章第一段第二句可知，他访问了很多的国家是为了国际之间文化的交流，而不是为了宣传自己的专辑，所以B项不正确；根据文章第三段的第二句可知C项不正确；根据上下文可知，他从16岁的时候就开始表演，81岁的时候去世，所以他的音乐人生经历了60多年，所以D项是正确的。
37．B 推理判断题。根据文章中他的音乐经历可以推知，他是他所在的年代里最活跃的音乐家之一。
38．C 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段第二句(即主题句)以及全文所述可知C项最适合作标题。
39．B 细节理解题。根据 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )第二段第二句“Our curricula embrace(contain)‘active’participation.” 可以判断B项正确。
40．A 细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句可知写即为一种表达。
41．C 推理判断题。根据第四段 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )第一句中的“...many educators believe that children don't have the ability to express themselves when writing.”可推知C项正确。
42．C 标题归纳题。第一段就突出 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )了文章的中心“Schools have to recognize the need for children to talk.”，因此选C项。
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇新闻报道。澳大利亚环境部长伯克推迟宣布考拉属于濒危动物的决定。
43．A 推理判断题。由第一段最后一句可以得出答案，Burke需要更多的时间来核实相关的信息。
44．D 段落大意题。由第三段中的i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ts population is reported to have fallen sharply for many reasons，including...可知，该段主要谈论了导致考拉数量锐减的若干原因，故选D项。
45．D 细节理解题。从第四段中D ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ebbie Pointing所说的话Putting off the decision on protection for the koala“is really bad news”以及That data should be enough to make a decision可知，他认为政府应该宣布考拉为濒危动物。
46．A 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )文主要报道了澳大利亚环境部长伯克推迟宣布考拉属于濒危动物的决定这一事件以及社会各方对这一决定的反应，故选A项。
47．D 细节判断题。根据文章第二段第二句话可判断出D项错误，新生入学的第一周才叫Freshers' Week。www-2-1-cnjy-com
48．B 词义猜测题。最后一段逗 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )号后面的意思是：新生周可以让你的大学生活有一个很棒的开端，而且你将很快把你的成功经验传给下一年的新recruits，故不难推出画线词应该指的是新生“freshers”。【版权所有：21教育】
49．C 推理判断题。该段的第一句话说“数以千计的其他人也会和你一样担心如何正确地开始他们的大学生活”，由此可知应选C项。
50．A 意图目的题。从 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )文章第五段的“Here are some top advice from past students on how to survive Freshers' Week”可以看出该文的写作目的是A项。其中，“Freshers' Week”指的就是a new start in universities。
