Ⅱ.阅读理解
A
If women are mer ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )cilessly exploited year after year，they have only themselves to blame.Because they tremble at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion，they are always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stores.Clothes which have been worn only a few times have to be put aside because of the change of fashion.When you come to think of it，only a woman is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe packed full of clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear.
Changing fash ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ions are nothing more than the intentional creation of waste.Many women spend vast sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn.Women who can not afford to throw away clothing in this way waste hours of their time altering (改变) the dresses they have.Skirts are lengthened or shortened；necklines are lowered or raised，and so on.
No one can clai ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )m that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society.Fashion designers are rarely concerned with vital things like warmth，comfort and durability.They are only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of discomfort，as long as they look right.There can hardly be a man who hasn’t at some time in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day，or delicately picking her way through deep snow in high heeled shoes.
When comparing men ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) and women in the matter of fashion，the conclusions to be drawn are obvious.Do the constantly changing fashions of women’s clothes，one wonder，reflect basic qualities of inconstancy and instability？Men are too clever to let themselves be cheated by fashion designers.Do their unchanging styles of dress reflect basic qualities of stability and reliability？That is for you to decide.
1．Designers and big stores always make money________.
A．by constantly changing the fashions in women’s clothing
B．by mercilessly exploiting women workers in the clothing industry
C．because they are able to predict new fashions for the coming seaon
D．because they attach ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )great importance to the quality of women’s clothing
2．To the write ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r，that women alter their old fashioned dresses is seen as________.
A．a waste of money
B．an expression of taste
C．a waste of time
D．an expression of creativity
3．According to the passage，which of the following statements is true
A．The fashion industry makes an important contribution to society.
B．The constant ch ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )anges in women’s clothing reflect their strength of characters.
C．Fashion des ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )igns should not be encouraged since they are only welcomed by women.
D．New fashions in ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )clothing are created for the commercial exploitation of women.
4．By saying “th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e conclusions to be drawn are obvious”，the writer means that________.
A．women are better able to put up with discomfort
B．men are more reasonable in the matter of fashion
C．men are also exploited greatly by fashion designers
D．women’s inconstancy in their choice of clothing is often laughed at
【语篇解读】　女人爱美的天性被时装 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )设计师和商人充分利用，他们不断推出各种新款服装，赚足了女士们的钱，而女士们为了美丽心甘情愿地被他们剥削。男士在时装方面则显得比女士更理性。
1．A　[推理判断题。第一段提到“因为她们 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )一想到自己穿着过时的衣服出现在公众面前就不寒而栗，所以总是被服装设计师和大商场利用”，由此判断，这些人利用她们追求衣着时尚的特点来赚钱，故选A.通过不断改变女装的时尚。B.通过无情地盘剥服装加工行业的女工，C.因为他们能预测下一个季节的新款式，D.因为他们注重女装的质量，都不正确。]
2．C　[细节理解题。第二段说，女 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )士们如果没钱置办新衣，她们就浪费几个小时的时间来修改她们现有的服装以追求时尚。由此判断选C，作者觉得这样做是浪费时间。]
3．D　[推理判断题。从 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )第三段第一句可知A项错误；第三段说，女人为了美愿意忍受任何的不舒适，而没有提到反映了她们“性格的力量”，故B项错误；文章没有提到C项内容。从全文内容可知，作者觉得服装设计师推出各种新款服装的目的是赚钱，是“一年又一年无情地盘剥女士们”，由此判断选D。]
4．B　[推理判断题。最后一 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )段说，比较男人和女人对时装的态度就能得出一个明显的结论，男人很聪明，不会被时装设计师欺骗。从这些叙述可知应选B，男士在选择服饰方面比女士更理性。]
B
Today，when a f ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ire breaks out，you can be sure a citizen with a cellphone camera has posted it to Facebook or Twitter，or sent it to the media.But up to now，that citizen has not been able to easily send images and details of what is happening to the people who need it most：the police，firefighters and building security people who must respond，and whose ability to help is often measured in minutes，if not seconds.
That’s about to chang ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e.A one year old company called Elerts has developed a system that’s designed to mobile and social technologies to speed the flow of information between citizens and emergency workers in time of danger.The system involves free mobile applications—iPhone and iPad app (应用软件) is available now—that eyewitnesses can use to report incidents and get public safety warnings.And Elerts is offering a management console (控制台)for security firms and universities to receive the reports and distribute warnings and instructions，like a map with the best evacuation route (疏散路线)．
The service is the b ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rainchild of Chris Russo，deputy fire chief in the coastal town of Hull，Mass.As mobile communications sped up，he grew increasingly frustrated by his inability to communicate effectively with colleagues and the public，particularly with people who are at the scene and might be able to provide help.
“Remembering situa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tions when communications failed puts__a_pit_in_my_stomach，” Mr Russo says.Last summer，he was in a search at a beach for a missing boy，who went into a bathhouse but didn’t come out.First responders feared an abduction (绑架) on the beach or shark attack.The child’s mother，who didn’t speak English well，was so sad that she couldn’t remember what color shorts he had on.Mr Russo had no photo of the child，and no ability to turn to beachgoers.
Two long hours later， ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the boy was spotted by a low flying helicopter lost and alone on the beach crying—a lucky break.“If 5 percent of beachgoers had an app to receive a message and send in sightings of a lost boy，the happy ending might have come much sooner，” Mr Russo said.
5．What is the passage mainly about
A．A system for reporting emergencies.
B．A moving story of Chris Russo.
C．A cellphone instant service.
D．An app for firm management.
6．The underlined part in Paragraph 4 can be replaced by “________”．
A．arouses my interest
B．causes a stomachache
C．makes me feel frustrated
D．leaves a hole in my stomach
7．We can infer from the passage that emergency workers________.
A．have to carry out rescue work in minutes
B．need images and detailed information badly
C．must send images and details immediately
D．have to turn to Facebook and Twitter for details
8．The author takes Chris Russo’s experience as an example to________.
A．advertise his creativity in communication
B．inform readers how Russo got the idea of the service
C．make the passage more interesting to read
D．show readers the working principle of the new system
【语篇解读】　本文介绍了一家公司开发的一个服务系统——可以把紧急情况快速传给营救人员。
5．A　[主旨大意题。根据全文可知，本文介绍了一家公司开发的一个服务系统——可以把紧急情况快速传给营救人员。]
6．C　[短语理解题。根据画线部分后所 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )讲述的故事以及倒数第三段中的“he grew increasingly frustrated by his inability to communicate effectively...”可知，回想起那些因沟通不畅，紧急营救变得非常困难的情况时，Mr Russo的心情非常沮丧。]
7．B　[推理判断题。根据 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )第一段中的“But up to now...who need it most：the police，firefighters and building security people”可知，营救人员非常需要images和详细信息。]
8．B　[推理判断题。根据第三 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )段第一句可知，这种服务的发明人是Chris Russo，而用他的亲身经历作为例子是为了说明他的创意的灵感来源。]Module 3-4
Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2015·湖北高三八校二模)
Dyslexia is a lear ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ning disorder. It interferes with the ability to recognize words, and for some readers to understand what they have read. Experts say dyslexia affects about five to ten percent of the population of the United States. Researchers have long known that people with dyslexia write or read words and letters backwards in the wrong order.
But a new stud ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )y shows that people with dyslexia may have trouble redirecting their attention between senses, from seeing something to hearing something. The study suggests something that might help dyslexic people learn more quickly—play video games.
Vanessa Harrar of Brit ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ain's University of Oxford led the study. She reported the findings in the journal Current Biology. The study suggests that dyslexic people may have trouble moving quickly from what they read to what they hear.
In the study, Doctor ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Harrar tested 17 people with dyslexia, and 19 others without reading problems. The volunteers were asked to push a button as quickly as possible when they heard a sound, saw a light or experienced both together. Doctor Harrar compared the speed of their reactions. She found that people with dyslexia were just as fast as the others when they saw only a picture or heard only a sound. But the Dyslexics had a slower reaction time when they heard a sound and saw a picture at the same time, this may have an effect on how dyslexic children are taught how to read.
Doctor Harrar fe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )els like playing video games could help dyslexic people shift from seeing to hearing more quickly. She adds that images in video games force the eyes to move and focus quickly. “Video game types of things pop out of here and there, they move your eyes around the screen quite quickly in response to things quite quickly, and the more you play a video game the faster you get that kind of thing. So, the video game is really training the attention system to move quickly，” said Harrar. When children learn the alphabet, they usually see the letter first and then hear the sound, or they see and hear the letter at the same time. The study shows that Dyslexics might learn more quickly if they hear the sound of a letter or word first before seeing it.
语篇解读：文章介绍了一个新的研究结果，玩视频游戏可能帮助失读症的人，文章具体介绍失读症的人的症状和通过玩视频游戏有什么改善。
1．According t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o Doctor Harrar's study, the dyslexic people have difficulty in ________.
A．recognizing words
B.reading words backwards
C．writing letters in order
D．shifting from seeing to hearing
答案：D　细节理解题。根据第三段中的“ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )The study suggests that dyslexic people may have trouble moving quickly from what they read to what they hear.”和第四段第三句中的“Doctor Harrar feels like playing action video games could help dyslexic people shift from seeing to hearing more quickly.”可知有阅读障碍的人在所看到的和所听到的东西之间进行转换时有困难。

答案：C　细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )中的“But the Dyslexics had a slower reaction time when they heard a sound and saw a picture at the same time, this may have an effect on how dyslexic children are taught how to read.”可知应选C。
3．How does the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) author suggest Dyslexics are taught based on the research finding
A．by putting hearing previous to seeing
B.by training the attention on games
C．by seeing first and then hearing later

答案：A　细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e study shows that Dyslexics might learn more quickly if they hear the sound of a letter or word first before seeing it.”可知有阅读障碍的人在看到一个单词之前先听到它，他们反应会快一些，故选A项。
4．What can be the best title of the passage
A．Video Games Might Help Dyslexics
B.Dyslexia Affects Attention between Senses
C．Video Games Can Train the Attention System
D．Dyslexics Might Learn Better through Sound
答案：A　标题确定题 文章主要讲述了研究表明视频游戏能帮助有阅读障碍者学习，故用A作为文章的标题最好。

Mary：Yes, __1__ does. But I heard recently that the __2__(own)of the factory have promised to take measures to reduce their factory's pollution.
John：I hope they will keep their promise.
Mary：I think ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )they will. I've been told that __3__ special machine is supposed to be fixed by the end of this year. It's said that the machine __4__ clean the dust out of the smoke before it goes into the air.
John：That's goo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )d. Dust is really __5__(harm) to our lungs. I know that because my family lives near a steel factory with a chimney constantly __6__(pour)out black smoke.
Mary：Oh, you liv ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e near the steel factory Is it true that we shouldn't eat the fish from the lake near the steel factory

Mary: You're __10__.
语篇解读：约翰和玛丽在谈论空气污染问题。
1．it　此处用it指代上文中的quite a lot of black smoke。设空处后的does 与上文的pollutes对应。
2．owners　“the” ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )和“of”之间应为名词，此处用own的名词形式owner表示“(那家工厂的)所有人”，又由空后的助动词have和their可知此处应用复数形式。
3．a　machine为可数名词，在本句中表泛指，故用不定冠词a。
4．can/will　据说那种机器能够/将会净化烟中的尘埃。can表示能力；will表示对将来事情的预料。
5．harmful　be harmful to“对……有害”。
6．pouring　考查非谓语动词 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )作宾补。with后的宾语a chimney与pour之间为逻辑上的主动关系且表示正在进行的动作，故用现在分词作宾补。
7．polluted　现在完成时的被动语态结构为“have/has been＋过去分词”。
8．but　前后两部分为转折关系，故用but连接。
9．what　句意：我们需要的是一 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )点点的行动。“__9__ we need”为表语从句。表语从句中缺少宾语且表示“事物”，故用what引导。
10．right/correct　“You're right/correct”表示同意对方的说法。　Module 5　Ethnic Culture

A．that B．one
C．those D．ones
答案　A　[考查代词。根据句意可知，此 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )处应用that指代“the air”。that常常用来代替前面已提到过的名词，以避免重复，它既可以代替不可数名词，也可以代替可数名词的单数，故选A项。]

Ⅲ.阅读理解
There are probably n ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o people on Earth who like to gossip (说闲话) as much as the British.If prying into other’s lives were an Olympic sport，then Team GB would surely take the gold medal.
And when the Bri ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tish can’t watch the lives of real people with glee，they have another source of entertainment to fall back on—the soap opera.British soap operas are very different to US TV dramas.For one，they are normally longer running.The two most popular，Coronation Street and Eastenders，have been running for 48 and 24 years respectively.Both are broadcast several times a week，so remarkably there have been more than 7,000 episodes of Coronation Street.
The most obvio ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )us difference is that，unlike US dramas，the British soap operas focus on the real world.There is little glamour，the stars are rarely rich，and they normally have boring jobs.Perhaps the appeal is that the lives of the characters often mirror the lives of the audience—but with some drama added.This means the viewer can relate to the characters and feel the pain and happiness they go through on the show.
Because these soa ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )p operas last for decades，the cast is ever changing.The shows rarely focus on one or two main characters.Like the real world，people come and go all the time.However，there are exceptions.Coronation Street’s William Roach,76，has played the role of Ken Barlow since the very first episode of the show in 1960，and he is still a regular.
The choice of which s ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )oap opera you follow is often cultural：People from the north of British tend to watch Coronation Street as it is set in Manchester.People from the south generally prefer East enders，which is set in the east of London.The show is generally considered grittier and is aimed at a younger audience.
1．What does this passage mainly talk about
A．British people like to know things about other people.
B．British team can get Olympic gold medals.
C．What is British soap opera.
D．People in the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )north like different things from the people in the south.
2．What is the mai ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n difference between American dramas and British soap operas
A．American dramas are longer.
B．British soap operas are longer.
C．American dramas deal with dangerous things.
D．British soap operas deal with real people.
3．Why do British people like to watch such operas
A．They can find their own life from the operas.
B．They can enjoy the operas in their free time.
C．They can watch the operas for many years.
D．They care about the fate of the characters in the operas.
4．The underlined word ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )“episodes” in the 2nd paragraph probably means________.
A．plays　　 B．pages　　
C．issues　　 D．parts
5．One characteristic of British operas is that________.
A．the characters play the same role for a long time
B．the characters in the play often change
C．people don’t know what will happen next
D．there is only one or two characters in them
【语篇解读】　本文主要介绍了什么是英国的肥皂剧、英国肥皂剧与美国电视剧的区别、英国肥皂剧的主要特点以及英国人喜欢看英国肥皂剧的主要原因。

2．D　[细节理解题。根 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )据文章第三段的第一句话可知，英国肥皂剧与美国电视剧最大的不同在于英国肥皂剧关注的是现实世界。D项最符合文意，故答案选D。]
3．A　 [细节理解题。根据文章第三段的第三 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )、四句话可知，英国人喜欢看这种肥皂剧主要是因为剧中角色的生活反映了他们自己的生活，他们可以从剧中感受到痛苦和幸福。A项最符合文意，故答案选A。]
4．D　[词义猜测题。根据上下文可知，“episode”应该意为“(电视连续剧的)一集”。故D项与画线词的意思最接近。]
5．B　[细节理解题。根据文章第四段的 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )第一句话可知，因为英国的这些肥皂剧要持续好几十年，所以剧中的演员阵容(the cast)经常发生变化。可见，英国肥皂剧的一个特点就是剧中的角色经常改变。]

“One City One Book” i ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s a generic name (通称) for a community reading program that attempts to get everyone in a city to read and discuss the same book.Popular book picks have been Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird，Ernest Gaines’s A Lesson Before Dying，and Ray Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451.
“One City One Bo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ok” programs take the idea of a localized book discussion club and expand it to cover a whole city.The first such program was “If All of Seattle Read the Same Book” in 1998，started by Nancy Pearl at Seattle Public Library’s Washington Center for the Book.The book chosen for the program was The Sweet Hereafter by Russell Banks，written in 1991.Other cities copied the idea，and the Library of Congress listed 404 programs occurring in 2007.
Each city’s program ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) has its own goals；these typically include building a sense of community and promoting literacy.Nancy Pearl warns against expecting too much from a program：“Keep in mind that this is a library program，it’s not an exercise in civics，and that it’s not intended to have literature cure the racial divide.This is about a work of literature.”
Programs typical ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ly involve more than having everyone read the same book.Some other activities that have been included are：book discussion sessions，scholarly lectures on the book or related topics，a visit by the author，exhibits，related arts programming (especially showing a movie of the book if there is one)，and integration into school curricula.In Boston the “One City One Story” program used shorter stories and distributed tens of thousands of free copies of the story over the course of a month.
American Library ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )Association puts out a detailed step by step guide on how to organize a local program，including the critical step of picking the one book.The Center for the Book at the Library of Congress tracks all known programs and the books they have used.
4．“One City One Book” programs________.
A．ask everyone in a city to donate one book
B．can rid a city of racial divide through reading
C．choose short stories for people to read
D．encourage everyone in a city to read and discuss the same book

A．became popular very quickly
B．have been held more than 400 times in Seattle
C．were sponsored by the Library of Congress
D．reached its peak in 2007
6．We can infer from the third paragraph that Nancy Pearl________.
A．expects much from the programs
B．didn’t expect that the programs would run so well
C．has a practical attitude towards the programs
D．believes the programs will push forward community building
7．What kind of rol ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e does American Library Association play in the programs
A．It picks out the city which runs the programs well.
B．It gives free books to the host city.
C．It gives a practical guide to the programs.

(2016·聊城一中阶段测试)
Something in chocolate ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) could be used to stop coughs and lead to more effective medicines, say UK researchers.
Their study ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )found that theobromine, found in cocoa, was nearly a third more effective in stopping coughs than codeine, which was considered the best cough medicine at present.
The Imperial College ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )London researchers who published their results online said the discovery could lead to more effective cough treatment. “While coughing is not necessarily harmful, it can have a major effect on the quality of life, and this discovery could be a huge step forward in treating this problem，” said Professor Peter Barnes.
Ten healthy vo ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lunteers were given theobromine, codeine or placebo, a pill that contains no medicine, during the experiment. Neither the volunteers nor the researchers knew who received which pill. The researchers then measured levels of capsaicin(辣椒素), which is used in research to cause coughing and as a sign of how well the medicines are stopping coughs.
The team found ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) that, when the volunteers were given theobromine, the capsaicin need to produce a cough was around a third higher than in the placebo group. When they were given codeine they need only slightly higher levers of capsaicin to cause a cough compared with the placebo.
The research ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ers said that theobromine worked by keeping down a verve activity(神经活动), which caused coughing. They also found that unlike some standard cough treatments, theobromine caused no side effects such as sleepiness.
语篇解读：这是一篇科普性读物 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )。选材于医学的某一方面的研究——对巧克力中theobromine(可可碱)独特的治疗咳嗽的功效的对比研究，证明theobromine(可可碱)是未来有效的治疗咳嗽的良药。
1．According to Professor Barnes, theobromine ________.
A．cannot be as effective as codeine
B．can be harmful to people's health
C．cannot be separated from chocolate
D．can be a more effective cure for coughs
答案：D　推理判断题。从第二段的“Thei ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r study found that theobromine, found in cocoa, was nearly a third more effective in stopping coughs than codeine, which was considered the best cough medicine at present.”可看出theobromine比codeine更有效，判断A项错误。既然它用来止咳，改善人们的生活质量，所以B项错误。在第一段提到了heobromine是从chocolate里提炼出来的，所以C项错误。故正确答案是D项。
2．What was used in the experiment to cause coughing
A．Theobromine. B．Codeine.
C．Capsaicin. D．Placebo.
答案：C　细节理解题。A、 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )B、D三项中的物品是用来做实验的物品。在文章第四段最后一句“The researchers then measured levels of capsaicin, which is used in research to cause coughing and as a sign of how well the medicine are stopping coughs.”可知Capsaicin(辣椒素)用来引起咳嗽和作为这些药物如何止咳的依据。
3．We learn from the text that volunteers in the experiment ________.
A．were patients with bad coughs
B．were divided into the three groups
C．received standard treatments
D．suffered little side effects
答案：B　推理判断题。从第四 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )段首句“Ten healthy volunteers were given theobromine, codeine or placebo, a pill that contains no medicine, during the experiment.”可知实验中每组人吃一种所给的物品才能看出止咳的效果，故需要三组志愿者。
4．Which of the following would be the best title for the text
A．Codeine: A New Medicine
B．Chocolate May Cure Coughs
C．Cough Treatment: A Hard Case
D．Theobromine Can Cause Coughs
答案：B　归纳主旨题。本文主要介绍chocolate中含有的一种成分Theobromine能有很好的止咳效果，所以该题的正确答案为B。

The earth is dyi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ng before us yet we sit and watch. If the TV or the game system breaks, we run off to the stores to get it fixed immediately no matter what the cost. Why aren't we willing to fix our earth Are our televisions and game systems more important to us than where we live Where shall we continue to live, until the end of time
The earth is ou ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )r home and cannot be replaced. We must take care of it. We have come up with so much technology that limits us instead of helping us. Take that game system we run to repair. What does it do It occupies kids' time! The earth has already given kids plenty of entertainment in the forms of fields and hills, forests and plains, water and land. However, instead of using what the earth has given us, and helping kids by giving them exercise as they run around, we decide to ruin kids' minds with game systems that glue them to the screen for hours, and make them ignore their homework and chores. We have polluted this earth by making these things which do not even help in any way!
We have already messed ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) up this world; we have ruined the air, water, and animals that it has so willingly provided for us. We need to stop this destruction of life and bring back the world we had before. It will not be easy, but everybody can help! What about something as simple as turning the lights off when you leave a room Recycling what can be recycled Picking up litter Donating money to an environmental organization None of these things are very hard. We can't just always say, “Oh, the earth is a mess. Ah, well, those big companies that are polluting so much can stop and fix it.” Instead, we need to help out. It's not only those big companies; it's everyday things that we do too that are ruining the earth. So stop and think about what you can do to make a difference to our world!

Washington: NASA ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )has announced evidence that Jupiter's largest moon, Ganymede, has a saltwater ocean under its icy surface. The ocean seems to have more water than all the water on Earth's surface, according to new Hubble observation.
New Hubble obs ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ervations of Ganymede's magnetic field strongly suggest that the moon, which is the largest in our whole solar system, is home to a subsurface ocean.
Scientists estimate th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e ocean is 95 kilometers thick, which is about 10 times deeper than Earth's oceans. But unlike our salty waters, Ganymede's ocean is buried under 150 kilometers of ice.
While scientists have ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) speculated(推测) since 1970s about the presence of an ocean on Ganymede—the largest moon in our solar system—until now the only observational evidence came from a brief flyby by the Galileo spacecraft, which didn't observe the moon long enough to confirm a liquid ocean.
This discovery marks a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )n important milestone, highlighting what only Hubble can accomplish. In its 25 years in orbit, Hubble has made many scientific discoveries in our own solar system. A deep ocean under the icy surface of Ganymede opens up further exciting possibilities for life beyond Earth.
Scientists_have ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )_already_confirmed_the_existence_of_an_ocean_on_Europe,_another moon orbiting Jupiter, and NASA has announced plans to send an unmanned mission there searching for the life that might come with liquid water.
Hubble is a telescope ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )that orbits Earth, but because of its impressive gravitational analyses it can be used to study the inside of far distant planets. Using these same principles, scientists could theoretically detect oceans on distant planets as well.

My speech was not only appreciated by the principal as well as the teachers, because I was able to get my idea across to them. They encouraged and praised my efforts.
After delivering ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )this presentation successfully, I became more confident. I said to myself, “If I can speak in front of such a learned audience, like the principal who educates others, I can now speak in front of others too.”
I started deliveri ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ng lectures in my plant, on various topics like Self Motivation, Personality Development, Personal Excellence, Spoken English and Presentation Skills. This has become a passion for me. I learned that everything is possible if we have the courage to take the first step.

__2__ According t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o Xinhua News Agency, the food wasted by Chinese people is about 50 million tons of grain every year, which could feed 200 million people.
Food waste, which h ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )as become a global issue, serves as a mirror that reflects various cultural and social issues in different countries. In the West, for instance, consumerism, the belief that it's a good thing to use a lot of goods and services, is often to blame for food waste. __3__ Chinese people are well known for being hospitable and generous. Many even feel that they lose face if their guests have eaten all the food. On campus, a generation of single children is less aware of the food waste issue. Students nowadays are well protected by their families and hardly have any concept of how much toil (辛劳) others go through in order to provide them with the food they eat.
__4__ There are ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )over 925 million hungry people in the world, most of whom live in underdeveloped countries and areas. They don't have enough food to eat.

A．Students' waste is extremely serious.
B．China, in turn, features its own eating culture.
C．Students can never realize the serious food crisis.

E．But canteen waste is merely the tip of the iceberg.
F．So there's no excuse that we should waste our food.
G．Most of us would simply throw away any leftover food.
语篇解读：文章主要讲的是 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )浪费食物的现象。学生往往会把吃剩下的饭菜倒掉，学校食堂的浪费现象只是冰山一角，我国每年浪费的粮食有大约两千万吨。做题时注意上下文的联系和段落大意。
1．G　根据第二行“what stude ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nts waste every year could feed over 10 million people”可知，学生们会把吃不完的饭菜倒掉，由此造成的浪费能够养活一千多万人，故选G。
2．E　根据“the food ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )wasted by Chinese people is about 50 million tons of grain every year, which could feed 200 million people”可知，中国人浪费掉的粮食能够养活两亿人，说明食堂的浪费现象只是冰山一角，故选E。
3．B　根据本段首句“Food ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )waste... serves as a mirror that reflects various cultural and social issues”和“Chinese people are well known for being hospitable and generous. Many even feel that they lose face if their guests have eaten all the food.”可知，食物浪费现象反映一个国家的饮食文化和习惯，故选B。
4．D　根据“There ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) are over 925 million hungry people in the world, most of whom live in underdeveloped countries and areas.”可知，本段讲的是处于饥饿中的人们，故选D。
5．F　根据“Many chi ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ldren die for lack of nutrition each year...And farmers work very hard to grow the crops.”可知，世界其它地方的孩子因饥饿而死，而且农民种粮食很辛苦，因此我们没有理由浪费粮食，每个人都应该想一想该怎样减少食物浪费，故选F。
Ⅲ.语法填空

语篇解读：苏珊正为给同事买圣诞礼物而头疼，这时蒂姆给了她一些建议。
1．who　“__1__ work with me”为定语从句，先行词为those，关系词在定语从句中作主语，且指“人”，故用who引导。
2．a　句意：……但那真是件令人头疼的事情。headache为可数名词，此处表泛指，故与不定冠词连用。
3．dividing　设空处作consider的宾语，consider后需加动名词作宾语，故设空处用dividing。
4．but　句意：……哪些是你不是很熟悉但每天见面很多的人。由此可见前后两部分为转折关系，故用but连接。
5．what　句意：好的。然后我该做什么呢？考查疑问代词。根据上下文逻辑可知设空处用what“什么”。
6．them　buy后常加双宾语，故此处用them指代前面提到的friends。
7．on　on a diet为固定短语，意为：在节食。
8．healthy　keep healthy“保持健康”。形容词healthy作系动词keep的表语。
9．importantly　“more importantly”常用于句首修饰整个句子，意为：更重要的是。
10．have helped　考查时态。既然蒂姆给了苏珊很好的建议，因此可推断出蒂姆已经帮助苏珊摆脱了困境，故设空处用现在完成时态。
Ⅳ.短文改错
假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。文中共有10处语言错误，每句中最多有两处。错误仅涉及一个单词的增加、删除或修改。增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号(∧)，并在其下面写出该加的词。删除：把多余的词用(\)划掉。
修改：在错的词下画一横线，并在该词下面写出修改后的词。
注意：1.每处错误及其修改均仅限一词；
2．只允许修改10处，多者(从第11处起)不计分。

【语篇解读】　本文为一篇记叙文。文 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )章主要讲述一天“我”为离开温暖的家而伤心难过时，祖父过来安慰“我”，并告诉“我”无论发生什么永远不要说再见。直到祖父去世时，“我”才真正明白祖父所说的“永远不要说再见”的真正含义——不要屈服于悲伤和难过。
1．A　[根据语境可知，此处指“我”跑到后院，任泪水流淌。突然“我”感觉有只手放在“我”的肩膀上。feel感觉到，符合语境。]
2．C　[此处指“我”抬起头结果看见是祖父。see强调看的结果；watch强调有意识地“观看”。]
3．C　[由上文可知，祖父看到“我”因不得不离开家而悲伤难过得哭了，所以他会说“不容易是吗”，故此处应为easy。]
4．B　[根据倒数第二段最后一 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )句话“...I took his hand as________as he had once taken mine.”可知，此处应填taking，与下文相照应。]
5．A　[“________a huge red rose bush sat alone”为非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词the front yard，先行词在从句中作地点状语，故填关系副词where。]
6．A　[此处指“我”看着花不知道该说什么。 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )________to say为宾语从句，从句中缺少成分，故应用关系代词what引导，作动词say的宾语。 ]
7．D　[根据下文“It isn’t ju ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )st the roses that are beautiful，Billy.”可知，此处应填beautiful，与下文相照应。]
8．A　[根据语境可知，此处是指祖父把“我”拉近。close符合语境。]

The interview had b ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )een going on for about 20 minutes and everything seems to be going well.Then，suddenly，the interviewer asks an unexpected question，“Which is more important，law or Dove？”
Job applicants in the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )West increasingly find themselves asked strange questions like this.And the signs are that this is beginning to happen in China.
Employers want peop ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )le skilled，enthusiastic and devoted.So these are the qualities that any reasonably intelligent job applicants will try to show no matter what his or her actual feelings are.In response，employers are increasingly using questions which try and show the applicant’s true personality.
The question in ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the first paragraph comes from a test called the Keirsey Personality Sorter.It is an attempt to discover how people solve problems，rather than what they know.This is often called an aptitude test (能力倾向测验)．
According to M ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ark Baldwin many job applicants in China are finding this type of questions difficult.When a Chinese person fills out an aptitude test he or she will think there is a right answer and they may fail because they try to guess what the examiner wants to see.
This is sometimes cal ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )led the prisoner’s dilemma.Applicants are trying to act cleverly in their own interest.But they fail because they don’t understand what the interviewer is looking for.Remember that in an aptitude test，the correct answer is always the honest answer.

B．They are curious about the answers.
C．They try to discov ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )er the ability of the interviewees solving problems.
D．They just ask questions without thinking much.
3．According to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )the writer，in an aptitude test，Chinese job applicants should________.
A．not tell the truth
B．learn to tell what they really think
C．be more enthusiastic
D．try to find out what the examiner really want to know
4．From the passage we know that________.
A．job applicants are always asked such questions
B．more Chinese applicants fail to find a job
C．applicants should not act as reasonably as a prisoner
D．the aptitude test is becoming popular worldwide

2．C　[细节理解题。根据第四段中的“It ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) is an attempt to discover how people solve problems，rather than what they know.”可知答案为C项。]

4．D　[推理判断题。根据文章第二 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )段的内容可知，西方的求职者们不断发现他们被问到类似这样的奇怪问题，而且有迹象表明这种情况在中国也开始出现。由此可推知D项正确。]

The Most Direct Solution to Any Problem
When trying to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) solve various problems in life，an approach I find very useful is to first identify what I’d consider the most direct solution，regardless of how I feel about actually implementing (实施) it.What is the clearest，most direct path to my goal or the most efficient way to get around an obstacle
Many problems ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) will have multiple direct solutions，but often these solutions will be unpleasant at first glance because they’ll require courage，self discipline，creativity，or persistence to implement.__ 1__
For example，suppose y ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ou want to lose weight.And suppose we can say that one of direct solutions is to eat the same as you’re eating now and increase your exercise output by 500 calories a day.__2__It may require discipline and persistence，but most people would agree that it will work if you follow through.
Another example：__3__However，you don’t know how that person feels about you.One direct solution would be to simply walk up，explain your thoughts and feelings，and ask if she or he is interested in discussing the possibility of a closer relationship.This will take less than a minute to say，and whatever the outcome is，at least you know where you stand.__4__Anyhow it’s very simple and straightforward.
__5__What’s the simple ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )st and quickest way to reach your goal，assuming that you had limitless courage and discipline
A．Of course th ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )is solution may require a lot of courage to overcome the possibility of rejection.
B．But if we can ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )get ourselves to follow through，we know the solutions will actually work.
C．See if you can iden ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tify the most direct solution to some of your problems.
D．So the best way t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o overcome the difficulty is to ask your friends for advice.
E．If you implement this rather simple solution，you’ll lose weight.
F．Suppose you’re interested in starting a relationship with someone.
G．However，the solution implemented does not work.

Ⅴ.写作训练
某英语报社开辟了中学生习作专栏。 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )本期的话题是：注重日常学习、工作和生活中的细节。因为细节往往决定成败。请你以“We Should Pay Much Attention to Details”为题，用英语写一篇短文，谈谈自己的一些看法。
注意：1.词数：100左右；
2．短文中不能出现本人相关信息。

________________________________________________________________________
答案
We Should Pay Much Attention to Details
Some people may t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hink that one who wants to achieve great success shouldn’t pay much attention to details.But sometimes it is the details that determine our success，for they may be the very thing that has a great impact on what we’re doing.Since we have realized the importance of details，what should we do First，we should form the habit of being careful，because a careful person will rarely overlook details.What’s more，we should learn to keep the balance of quantity and quality.We may find that when faced with lots of work，the faster we do it，the more mistakes we will make.Why Because when we work at high speed，the only thing we care about is quantity in which case we are more likely to neglect the details.
As far as I’m conce ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )rned，we should keep it in mind that quality comes first，without which quantity is of no significance.
答案

Ⅱ.阅读理解
A
For many peop ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )le，volunteering is a way of life.Holidays are the time of the year that more people are in a giving mood.Homeless shelters，children’s hospitals，and nursing homes are excellent places to give of one’s time.
Volunteering in Homeless Shelters
There is a ho ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )meless directory online that anyone can easily access to find the closest homeless shelter to their home.According to the homeless shelter directory，currently there are 3,233 shelters in the US，so it is not difficult to find a shelter.Helping to serve food，picking up donations of food，preparing meals，and cleaning up are things that one can do to help at a homeless shelter.
Volunteering in Children’s Hospitals
Every child nee ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ds comfort and joy，especially during the holiday seasons.By visiting sick children in hospitals，an individual provides helping hands by supplementing the services usually done by the hospital staff.Personalizing the hospital experience adds to the comfort and happiness of the children and their families.Volunteers provide help，and positive interactions (相互交流) which enhance the patient’s quality of care.Help is needed almost everywhere in a hospital；from the lobby，parking lot，cafeteria，to admitting，helping with the gift cart，and even reading to children in the waiting rooms or their hospital rooms.
Volunteering in Nursing Homes
According to the Na ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )tional Center for Health Statistics，“Over 50% of those living in nursing homes do not have close relatives and 46% have no living children.” Life in a nursing home is lonely，confusing，and frightening for many residents.Volunteering at a nursing home is a great opportunity to make a difference in someone else’s life.Playing cards，sitting with and talking to a resident，taking a walk，or sharing a meal makes a huge difference，especially when they have no other sole on earth to visit them.
The three ex ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )amples above are only a small fraction of institutions in which volunteers are needed.Giving of oneself，especially during the holidays blesses and cheers others.

B
Wisdom teeth are nor ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )mally the last teeth to appear.This usually happens when people are in their late teen years or early twenties，in other words，when they are older and wiser.
Wisdom teeth can gro ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )w into place normally and never cause a problem.But often there is not enough room for them in the mouth；they might crowd other teeth.Sometimes they even push sideways through the gums (齿龈)．
An impacted wisd ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )om tooth is one that fails to completely rise through the gums.Wisdom teeth that only partly break through can leave space for bacteria to enter around the teeth.Infection (感染) is a risk in these cases.
Wisdom teeth ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )that are not well lined and become impacted are often removed.The American Dental Association says removal is generally advised when wisdom teeth only partly break through the gums.Removal is also advised if there is a chance that wisdom teeth ate poorly lined.The best time to remove is before the teeth cause any problems or pain.Young adults are the best candidates for wisdom teeth removal.
But why do we hav ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e wisdom teeth if we often need to get them removed？One theory has to do with our diets.Scientists say the diet of ancient humans probably required more chewing teeth.Life was probably a little rougher on the teeth back then，too.So it was good to have extras.
5．According to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the passage，which of the following statements is NOT true
A．Just older and wiser people can have wisdom teeth.
B．Wisdom teeth can cause problems if not in their right place.
C．Impacted wisdom teeth can’t grow out of the gum fully.
D．Wisdom teeth that only partly break can get bacterial infections.
6．Wisdom teeth should be removed________.
A．when they break through the gums
B．when they are below the gums
C．if they are not well lined or get impacted
D．if they take up enough room in the mouth
7．We can learn from the passage that________.
A．impacted wisdom teeth have the risk of getting infected
B．ancient humans need chewing teeth because of their happy life
C．older adults are the best candidates for wisdom teeth removal
D．more chewing teeth are needed for the diet of modern humans
8．The main purpose of the passage is to________.
A．advise B．persuade
C．comment D．introduce
【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了智慧之牙——智齿。
5．A　[细节理解题。根据文章第一段可知，所谓的智齿是指在青少年晚期或二十岁出头长出的牙齿，而不是只有老人或智者才有的牙齿。]
6．C　[细节理解题。根据 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )文章第四段第一句“Wisdom teeth that are not well lined and become impacted are often removed.”可知，C项正确。]
7．A　[推理判断题。根据文章第三段可知 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )，阻生智齿(即impacted wisdom teeth)会在牙齿周围给细菌留出进入的空间，这就有被感染的风除。故选A。根据第四段最后一句可排除C项；根据最后一段可排除B、D两项。]
8．D　[写作意图题。本文是一篇说 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )明文。文章主要介绍了长智齿的大约时间、智齿可能导致的问题、拔掉智齿的时间、为什么长智齿等内容。所以本文写作的主要目的就是介绍。]
