A
The Pacific island nation of Nauru used to be a beautiful place. Now it is an ecological disaster area. Nauru’s heartbreaking story could have one good consequence---other countries might learn from its mistakes.
For thousands of years, Polynesian people lived on the remote island of Nauru, far from western civilization. The first European to arrive was John Fearn in 1798. He was the British captain of the Hunter, a whaling ship. He called the island Pleasant Island.
However, because it was very remote, Nauru had little communication with Europeans at first. Then whaling ships and other traders began to visit, bringing guns and alcohol. These elements destroyed the social balance of the twelve family groups on the island. A ten-year civil war started, which reduced the population from l, 400 to 900.
Nauru’s real troubles began in 1899 when a British mining company discovered phosphate(磷酸盐) on the island. In fact, it found that the island of Nauru was nearly all phosphate, which is a very important fertilizer for farming. The company began mining the phosphate.
A phosphate mine is not a hole in the ground; it is a strip mine(露天矿). When a company strip-mines, it removes the top layer of soil. Then it takes away the material it wants. Strip-mining totally destroys the land. Gradually, the lovely island of Nauru started to look like the moon.
In 1968, Nauru became one of the richest countries in the world. Every year the government received millions and millions of dollars for its phosphate.
Unfortunately, the leaders invested the money unwisely and lost millions of dollars. In addition, they used millions more dollars for personal expenses. Soon people realized that they had a terrible problem---their phosphate was running out. Ninety percent of their island was destroyed and they had nothing. By 2000, Nauru was almost financially ruined. Experts say that it would take approximately $433,600,000 and more than 20 years to repair the island. This will probably never happen.
26. What might be the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To seek help for Nauru’s problems. B. To give a warning to other countries.
C. To show the importance of money. D. To tell a heartbreaking story of a war.
27. What was Nauru like before the Europeans came?
A. Rich and powerful. B. Modern and open.
C. Peaceful and attractive. D. Greedy and aggressive.
28. Which of the following was a cause of Nauru’s financial problem?
A. Its leaders misused the money.
B. It spent too much repairing the island.
C. Its phosphate mining cost much money.
D. It lost millions of dollars in the civil war.
29. What can we learn about Nauru from the last paragraph?
A. The ecological damage is difficult to repair.
B. The leaders will take the experts’ words seriously.
C. The island was abandoned by the Nauruans.
D. The phosphate mines were destroyed.
B
Over the centuries the French have lost a number of famous battles with the British. However, they’ve always felt superior in the kitchen. France has for centuries had a reputation for cooking excellence, and Britain for some of the worst cooking in the world. But according to a recent survey, that reputation may no longer reflect reality.
In the survey, 71% of the Britons said they cook at home every day, while only 59% of the French said they cook daily. British home cooks spend more time cooking each week and also produce a greater variety of dishes than French home cooks.
The reaction in London was predictably enthusiastic. British food has greatly improved since the 1990s. Once upon a time, the menu for many family meals would have been roast beef, potatoes and over-cooked vegetables, but not now. Home cooks are experimenting with the huge range of ingredients now available in British supermarkets and are preparing all kinds of new dishes, using the cookbooks that sell millions of copies every year. As a result, there’s much more diversity in British food now, compared to French food, which tends to be very traditional.
Some French people say that the survey did not show the whole picture. They agree that during the week French women don’t cook as much as they used to because most of them work and don’t have much time. They tend to buy ready-made or frozen dishes, but many of them make up for it on the weekend. There’s also a difference between Paris and the countryside. It’s true that people in Paris don’t cook much, but elsewhere, cooking is still at the heart of daily life.
For many French people, opinions about British food have not changed. When Bernard Blier, the food editor at a magazine, was asked about British food, he replied: “I don’t go out of my way to try it. It is not very refined. You can say that I’m not a fan at all.”
30. According to the passage, nowadays British people ______.
A.cook less at home than the French every day.
B.no longer eat roast beef and over-cooked vegetables.
C.are more willing to try cooking all kinds of new foods.
D.buy more cookbooks than French people do.
31. What can we infer from the fourth paragraph?
A.French women cook less often now.
B.The French prefer ready-made dishes.
C.French women seldom cook on the weekend.
D.Cooking is at the heart of people’s life in Paris.
32. What is Bernard’s attitude towards British food?
A.He would love to try it. B.He shows no interest in it.
C.He considers it worse than before. D.He considers it better than before.
33. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A.The history of British food. B.The history of French food.
C.The change in British food. D.The change in French food.

Few Americans stay in one place for a lifetime. We 34 from the city to the suburbs,from high school to college in a different state, from a job in one region to a better job 35 , from the home where we 36 our children to the home where we plan to live in 37 .

The word “friend” to American people can be 44 to a wide range of relationships — to someone one has known for a few weeks in a new place, to a close business companion, to a childhood playmate, to a man or woman, to a 45 colleague. There are real 46 among these relations for Americans — a friendship may be 47 , casual, situational or deep and lasting. But to a European, who sees only our surface behavior, the differences are not clear.
As Europeans see it, all kinds of “friends” flow 48 of Americans' homes with little ceremony. They may be parents of the children's friends, house guests of neighbors, members of a committee, business associates from another town or even another country. 49 as a guest into an American home, the European visitor finds no 50 differences. The atmosphere is 51 . Most people, old and young, are called 52 first names. Americans’ characteristic openness to different styles of relationship makes it possible for us to find new friends abroad with whom we feel 53 .

必修三Unit 5 Canada—“The True North”
英 语 (二)
(本卷满分100分)
一、阅读理解(每小题2.5分,共25分)
Ireland has had a very difficult history. The problems started in the 16th century when English rulers tried to conquer(征服) Ireland. For hundreds of years, the Irish people fought against the English. Finally, in 1921, the British government was forced to give independence to the south of Ireland. The result is that today there are two “Irelands”. Northern Ireland, in the north, is part of the United Kingdom. The Republic of Ireland, in the south, is an independent country.
In the 1840s the main crop, potatoes, was affected by disease and about 750,000 people died of hunger. This, and a shortage(短缺) of work, forced many people to leave Ireland and live in the USA, the UK, Australia and Canada. As a result of these problems, the population fell from 8.2 million in 1841 to 6.6 million in 1851.
For many years, the majority of Irish people earned their living as farmers. Today, many people still work on the land but more and more people are moving to the cities to work in factories and offices. Life in the cities is very different from life in the countryside, where things move at a quieter and slower pace.
The Irish are famous for being warm-hearted and friendly. Oscar Wilde, a famous Irish writer, once said that the Irish were “the greatest talkers since the Greeks”. Since independence, Ireland has revived(复兴) its own culture of music, language, literature and singing. Different areas have different styles of old Irish songs which are sung without instruments. Other kinds of Irish music use many different instruments such as the violin, whistles, etc.
1.What does the author tell us in Paragraph 1?
A.How the Irish fought against the English.
B.How Ireland gained independence.
C.How English rulers tried to conquer Ireland.
D.How two “Irelands” came into being.
2.We learn from the text that in Ireland ________.
A.food shortages and a lack of work in the 1840s led to a decline in population
B.people are moving to the cities for lack of work in the countryside
C.it is harder to make a living as a farmer than as a factory worker
D.different kinds of old Irish songs are all sung with instruments
3.The last paragraph is mainly about ________.
A.the Irish culture B.the Irish character
C.Irish musical instruments D.a famous Irish writer
B
Finland is perhaps the most beautiful and mysterious of the countries of northern Europe. Two-thirds of its surface is covered with thick forests. Relative to its size, Finland has more lakes than any other countries. The northern part of this country is inside the Arctic Circle, where almost no trees can grow because of its cold weather and the people use their deer to transport clothing and food.
The Finnish history began in the Middle Ages. In about 1155, Finland was conquered (征服) by its western neighbor Sweden. After a period of rule by Denmark in the 14th century, the Swedes won back independence and power in 1523 under their brave king. During the Napoleonic Wars (1804~1818), Finland was finally passed from Sweden to Russia. The opportunity came in 1917 when the Russian Revolution brought foreign rule of Finland to the end. Shortly after Soviet Russia made peace with Germany, 1919 saw the founding of the Finnish Republic.
The years between the First and Second World Wars were years of progress and growing development. Finland is the fifth largest country in Europe, and despite a relatively small population of 5.2 million, the market potential is much greater. Finland has no coal or oil, and the nation’s wealth lies in the timber (木材) from its forests, which supplies material for paper and furniture making, and in the electric power from its water. Finland is an excellent gateway to trade with Russia and the Baltic States because of a long history of trading with these markets. Finland has also enjoyed a strong and long-standing trading relationship with Britain, a relationship which was further strengthened by Finland’s accession (加入) to the European Union in January 1995.
The following are some of the main commercial centres and towns:
Town
Population
Helsinki
545,474 (1 January 2013)
Espoo
213,271 (1 January 2013)
Tampere
195,468 (1 January 2013)
Vantaa
178,471 (1 January 2013)
Turku
172,561 (1 January 2013)
Oulu
120,753 (1 January 2013)
4.From the text, we learn that Finland ________.
A.lies inside the Arctic Circle
B.is next to the countries of northern Europe
C.lies east of Sweden
D.is entirely covered with forests and lakes
5.In the history, Finland was sequentially ruled by ________ in order.

C.Sweden, Denmark, Russia and Germany
D.Sweden, Russia, Denmark and Russia
6.Finland had been under the control of ________ for as long as 100 years or so.

The cost of living in countries like the United States, Britain, Australia or France has skyrocketed in recent years, but, if you’re willing to leave your country and explore life in other areas, there are many countries boasting an extremely cheap and low cost of living. So, if you have the flexibility of living wherever you please, and want to live in a country the cost of living is the cheapest in the world, check out these 3 countries when planning your next move.
1. Cambodia
Cambodia may not be the first country that comes to mind when you think of a tropical paradise, but it’s pretty close. The added bonus is that living here is insanely cheap, unlike some other tropical getaways. A luxury home with four bedrooms and a pool would only cost about $600 a month. A decent three bedroom vacation home can be purchased here for just $20,000. And, for only about $2,000 a year, you can also hire a gardener and housekeeper to take care of your property.
2. Ecuador
Ecuador is similar to the United States in many ways, and as a result, it has become a popular American getaway. They even use the US dollar for their currency. In this country, it’s cheaper to eat out everyday than cook for yourself on a budget in the U.S. You can even buy a property for around 50,000 and hire someone to tend to it while you’re away.
3. Mexico
Although the country is known for its poverty ridden streets, there are many wealthier areas that provide every amenity (便利设施) you might need. You can live off a mere $700 a month in Mexico, and this includes rent for a nice place, amenities, food, and any sightseeing.
8.How much money do you need to pay to look after your property for a year in Cambodia?
A.$600. B.$2,000.
C.$20,000. D.$7,00.

C.Ecuador. D.China.
10.What things will you be unable to enjoy in Mexico?
A.Any scenery. B.Amenities.
C.A nice place. D.Tropical climate.
