Ⅰ.阅读理解
Crazy Festivals
Mike the Headless Chicken Festival
In 1945, farmer Lloyd Olsen attempted to cut off the head of Mike, a chicken, so his wife could cook it up for dinner. However, the bird didn't die and lived another year and a half, making regular trips to the fair, where people paid a quarter to see the amazing headless bird.
Today, the spirit of Mike the Headless Chicken is celebrated with a two-day May festival in Fruita, Colorado, which includes live music, a golf tournament, and lots of delicious chicken.
Roswell UFO Festival
In the summer of 1947, a flying saucer (碟状物) crashed on a large farm outside the town of Roswell, New Mexico. The government says it didn't come from outer space, but many top UFO researchers believe it did.
Knowing a good thing when it crashes in their backyard, the citizens of Roswell celebrate the event every July with a three-day festival that features a costume contest, a parade and other activities. Be careful, though — that_odd_little_person_next_to_you_could_be_from_another _planet.
World's Largest Rattlesnake Roundup
The rattlesnake, a poisonous American snake, serves an important fun_ction in nature by keeping small pests under control, but when their numbers grow too large, they can cause serious problems for farmers. That's why every March the residents of Sweetwater, Texas, host a three-day festival in association with the town's annual rattlesnake hunt.
Visitors can learn about rattlesnakes, take a bus tour of their natural habitat, participate in a rattlesnake eating contest and so on.
BugFest
Every September, the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences in Raleigh sponsors a daylong festival that focuses on something most people try to avoid: insects.
Visitors can hold bugs that are not native, cheer on racing insects and learn about beekeeping. But the highlight for many is Café Insecta, where bugs are the main ingredient in a variety of tasty dishes.
语篇解读:本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了四个古怪的节日。
1.Lloyd Olsen cut off the chicken's head because ________.
A.his family wanted to eat it
B.he wanted to sell its meat at the fair
C.his family wanted to celebrate a headless chicken festival
D.he wanted to make money by showing a headless chicken
解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第一个节日介绍中的“farmer Lloyd Olsen attempted to cut off the head of Mike, a chicken, so his wife could cook it up for dinner”可知答案。
2.By writing the underlined part, the author wants to ________.
A.remind readers that aliens do exist
B.add an air of mystery to the festival
C.imply that he may attend the festival
D.describe the fun of the costume contest
解析:选B 句意理解题。根据文章对第二个节日的介绍可知,作者以客观的口吻介绍了这个外星人节日的来源及节日内容等,并未对外星人是否存在表明自己的观点。由此可推测,作者最后说“你旁边那个奇怪的矮人可能来自另一个星球”只是为了给这个节日增加些神秘气氛。
3.What's the purpose of the World's Largest Rattlesnake Roundup?
A.To increase the local tourism.
B.To protect rattlesnakes' habitats.

B
Once a man needed a new pair of shoes. This man was very good at math. He knew that in order to get shoes that fit very well, it would be necessary to measure his foot size correctly.
So, before he went to the market, he carefully measured his feet and drew a very detailed picture of his feet on a piece of paper. Then before leaving the house, like a good mathematician, he rechecked his picture.
It was a very long way from the man's home to the market. It was past mid-day when the man arrived at the market. When the man reached the shoe stall, he realized that he had forgotten to bring his paper. He turned around and walked all the way back home to get it.
It was nearly sunset when the man returned to the market. There he found the market was closing. The shoemaker had packed up all of his shoes. “Foolish man,” the shoemaker said to the man when he was asked to unpack his goods to make a sale. “Why did you not just try on the shoes?”
The man hung his head shamefully, saying, “I guessed there was only one way to solve my problem. I should have checked with others for another solution that might have worked as well or better than my own.”
The above short story works well with school students and also teachers. Don't try to solve a problem with a single point of view; there may be many other ways of solving the same problem.
语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。文章通过一则短篇故事告诉我们:一个问题往往不只有一种解决办法。
5.Before the man went to the market, he ________.
A.asked others for some advice
B.knew well about his foot size
C.measured his old shoes carefully
D.drew a pair of shoes on a piece of paper
解析:选B 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“So, before he went to the market, he carefully measured his feet and drew a very detailed picture of his feet on a piece of paper.”可知,在去集市之前,那位男子仔细地测量了自己的脚的尺寸。
6.The shoemaker considered the man to be ________.

7.What does the author want to show by telling the story?
A.We should learn math very well.
B.It's necessary to ask for help at times.
C.We should think carefully before we act.
D.There is more than one way to solve a problem.
解析:选D 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Don't try to solve a problem with a single point of view; there may be many other ways of solving the same problem.”可知,作者讲述这个故事是想告诉我们:一个问题往往不只有一种解决办法。
C
Anna Schiferl hadn't even got out of bed when she reached for her cellphone and typed a text to her mom, one recent Saturday. Mom was right downstairs in the kitchen. The text? Anna wanted an egg for breakfast. Soon after, Joanna Schiferl called, “If you want to talk to me, Anna, come downstairs and see me!” Anna laughs about it now. “I was kind of being lazy,” she admits.
These days, many people with cellphones prefr texting to a phone call. And that's creating a communication divide, of sorts — the talkers vs. the texters. Some would argue that it's no big deal. But many experts say the most successful communicators will, of course, have the competence to do both. And they fear that more of us are unable to have — or at least are avoiding — the traditional face-to-face conversations.
Many professors (教授) say it is not common to see students outside of class. “I sit in my office hours lonely now because if my students have a question, they email me, often late at night,” says Renee Houston, a professor at the University of Puget Sound in Washington state. “And they never call.”
As Anna sees it: “There are people you'll text, but won't call. It's just a way to stay in touch with each other.” Some believe that scores of texts each day keep people more connected. “The problem is that the conversation isn't very deep,” says Joseph Grenny, co-author of the book Crucial Conversations: Tools for Talking When Stakes are High.
“The problem has been there since we've had telephones — probably since the time of a telegraph (电报),” Grenny says. Texting is just the latest way to do that. Though they may not always be so good at deep conversations themselves, Grenny suggests that parents model the behavior for their children and put down their own cellphones. He says that they also should set limits, as Anna's mom did when she made the “no texting to people in the same house” rule.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。专家表明,经常发短信可能会使人们在面对面交流时产生障碍。
8.According to Paragraph 1, Joanna ________.
A.was very strict with her daughter
B.did not know how to use a cellphone
C.was angry that her daughter got up late
D.did not have any breakfast that morning
解析:选A 推理判断题。由该段中的“If you want to talk to me, Anna, come downstairs and see me”可知,Joanna对她的女儿要求十分严格,故选A项。
9.The underlined word “competence” in Paragraph 2 probably means “________”.
A.chance B.ability
C.courage D.patience
解析:选B 词义猜测题。由该段中的“the talkers vs. the texters”等相关信息可知,这里是说:大多数成功的交流者有能力把两者都做好,即:不但善于口头沟通也善于通过短信来交流,故选B项。
10.What do we know about Renee's students?
A.They often work late at night.
B.They often ask strange questions.
C.Few ask her questions face to face.
D.Many email her if she feels lonely.
解析:选C 细节理解题。由第三段中的“I sit in my office hours lonely now because if my students have a question, they email me”可知,Renee的学生很少当面向她请教问题,故选C项。
11.In Joseph Grenny's opinion, ________.
A.cellphones make people lonelier
B.telephones help people communicate clearly
C.texting helps people have deeper conversations
D.talking should be encouraged instead of texting
解析:选D 细节理解题。由最后两段中的“the conversation isn't very deep”和“parents ...put down their own cellphones”以及“they also should set limits”等信息可知,Joseph Grenny认为父母应该放下手机给孩子做个榜样,多一些面对面的交流而非发短信,故选D项。
D
Brian Greene, a professor of physics and mathematics at Columbia University, has created an online science education platform. He tries to “build a bridge” with things you know about, and then “bring you across that bridge to the strange place of modern physics.”
Recently I had a chance to ask Greene about wormholes (a hole which some scientists think might exist, connecting parts of space and time that are not usually connected), time travel and other mysteries of the universe. I asked him a million-dollar question: What if I went through a wormhole and prevented my parents from meeting? “Most of us believe that the universe makes sense,” Greene said. “Although there are several interesting theories about time travel,” he added, “the laws of physics would probably prevent something so illogical from taking place. The good news is that the time paradox (悖论) is open for future physicists to solve.”
When asked how physics could become more exciting for kids, Greene said that books by Stephen Weinberg, Leonard Susskind, and other physicists, “make it a great time for people who want to learn about big ideas but aren't yet ready, perhaps, to learn math.”
When I pointed out that some students still might find physics boring, Greene said that the key is to teach them about things that are strange. “The basic stuff is important,” Greene said. “But I think it's really important to also describe the more modern ideas, things like black holes and the Big Bang. If kids have those ideas in mind, then at least some of them will be excited to learn all the details.”
Greene has followed Albert Einstein's lead in trying to solve the mysteries of the universe. Now he wants kids to do the same. As Greene said, physics is “not just a matter of solving problems in an exam.” It's about experimenting, showing an interest in strange phenomena (现象) — and having fun!
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。物理学家Brian Greene希望更多的孩子将会对现代物理学感兴趣。
12.A million-dollar question in Paragraph 2 is probably very ________.
A.direct B.difficult
C.personal D.long
解析:选B 词义猜测题。根据第二段Greene对这个问题的解释以及他说需要未来的物理学家去解决可知,作者提出的这个问题非常难。
13.The books by Weinberg and Susskind ________.
A.are boring to read
B.are mainly about math
C.are popular science books
D.are only popular among kids
解析:选C 推理判断题。根据第三段的“...books by ...make it a great time for people who want to learn about big ideas but aren't yet ready, perhaps, to learn math”可知,Greene认为Weinberg和Susskind等物理学家写的书浅显易懂,适合普通大众阅读,故这些书属于流行的科普读物。
14.According to Paragraph 4, which of the following does Greene agree with?
A.Modern physics is a boring subject.
B.Interest plays an important role in studying.
C.It is not necessary to learn all about physics.
D.It is easy to describe black holes and the Big Bang.
解析:选B 推理判断题。根据第四段可知,当作者指出一些学生觉得物理无聊时,Greene说重要的是向孩子们讲述一些稀奇古怪的事,并描述一些诸如黑洞和宇宙大爆炸的现代物理现象,如果孩子们知道了这些,他们就愿意了解更多详细的内容。因此他认为兴趣在学习过程中起着非常重要的作用。
15.In the last paragraph, Greene hopes that ________.
A.kids can love science and physics
B.kids can do well in physics exams
C.kids can have fun with experiments
D.kids can find more strange things in life
解析:选A 推理判断题。根据最后一段的“Greene has followed Albert Einstein's lead in trying to solve the mysteries of the universe. Now he wants kids to do the same.”可知,Greene希望孩子们可以像他一样对科学和物理感兴趣,去探索宇宙的奥秘。
Ⅱ.阅读七选五
Al-Azhar University
Going to a university is an important part of a person's life. Today, many people go to a university to study and train for a future job in subjects like law, medicine, or education. __1__ An important one started in Egypt over one thousand years ago.
The world's oldest surviving university, Al-Azhar, is in Cairo, Egypt. It was first built as a mosque (清真寺) in A.D. 972. A few years later, learners and teachers began meeting in the mosque. They read and talked about the subjects of religion (宗教) and law. __2__ Leaders in the city of Cairo decided to create a school for higher learning and soon after that, Al-Azhar University was started.
__3__ For these teachers at Al-Azhar, they needed to think about what courses to teach and how to teach them. The earliest courses were in law and religion. In a course, students read and studied with the teacher, but there was also free discussion. Often, students and teachers had interesting discussions, and there was no “correct” answer. In the years that followed, the new university interested scholars (学者) from around the world. __4__ At Al-Azhar, people studied the past, but it was also a place for sharing new ideas.
Over a thousand years later, Al-Azhar is still an important university in the world. __5__ Today, many of the world's most important universities such as Oxford and Harvard still follow the same traditions as they do at Al-Azhar.
A.A university was a new idea at that time.
B.There are many reasons to study in Egypt.
C.They came here to teach and do research.
D.Around the year 988, a new decision was made.
E.However, the university is not a modern invention.
F.The cost of university education is increasing year by year.
G.Its library contains many of the world's oldest and most valuable books.

have sth. done 结构。delivered是过去分词, 作it的宾语补足语, 表示被动关系。语法过去分词作定语和表语
I. 过去分词作定语
【用法归纳】
1. 过去分词作定语,一般表示其与所修饰 的名词之间是被动关系,且表示的动作已完成。如:
You’d better use the boiled water to make tea.
The nurse was sent to attend the injured man.2. 单个的过去分词作定语一般放在名词前面,而过去分词短语作定语一般放在名词后面。如:
Drunk people are not allowed to drive a car.
Have you read the novel written by Charles Dickens?
In the end, the suggestion given by Mr. Smith was adopted. 3. 不及物动词的过去分词作定语,只表示完成的含义,不表示被动的含义。如:
The police are searching for the escaped prisoner.
The old man over there is a retired worker. 【拓展】
done, to be done和being done 作定语的区别:它们都可作定语,表示被动意义,但时间含义上有所不同。过去分词表示被动的动作已完成;不定式的被动式表示被动的动作将要发生;动词-ing形式的被动式表示被动的动作正在进行。如:Lucy knows little about the research plan discussed at yesterday’s meeting.
The five players are expected to take part in the football match to be held next week.
All of us must keep a secret of the things being talked about here.II. 过去分词作表语
【用法归纳】
1. 过去分词可用在be, keep, remain, stay, seem, appear, look, feel, get等系动词后作表语,常表被动意义,用来说明主语的状态、性质、特征等。如:
Mrs. Green is convinced that her husband is telling a lie.
The living room is covered with dust. 2. 很多过去分词已经形容词化,此类词作表语或定语时,强调被动的含义不大,而更强调状态。常见的此类词有:satisfied, excited, bored, amazed, tired, pleased, astonished等。如:
As far as Tom is concerned, he is extremely satisfied.
Jim seems astonished to see his mother. 【拓展】
有些动词如frighten, interest, worry, surprise等通常用其过去分词形式来说明人的感受, 也可用来描述与人有关的事物, 如look(表情), expression等;常用动词-ing形式来说明物的情况。如:
The little girl gets frightened when her father shouts at her.
Sara told me a surprising thing just now.? 【运用】用括号内所给单词的正确形式填空。
