Martin experienced racism early in life.He decided to do something to make the world a better and fairer place.
After graduating from college and getting married, Dr King became a minister and moved to Alabama.
During the 1950's, Dr King became active in the movement for civil rights and racial equality.He participated in the Montgomery, Alabama, bus boycott and many other peaceful demonstrations(示威游行)that protested the unfair treatment of African-Americans.He was arrested more than twenty times and attacked at least four times in his life.He was named Man of the Year by Time magazine in 1963, and became not only the symbolic leader of American blacks but also a world figure.At the age of thirty-five, Martin Luther King, Jr., was the youngest man to have received the Nobel Peace Prize.

His first successful fight was for the equal rights of black people in South Africa.Then, as the first black president, he fought to unite the country and organize the government.Later Nelson Mandela set his sights on a new enemy, AIDS.
On March 19 the 82-year-old, former president, hosted(举行)his second AIDS-awareness concert.He warned that 25 million people in Africa were already infected with the fatal disease.
Mandela was born in a small village in South Africa in 1918.He was adopted by the chief of his tribe and could have been a chief himself and lived a happy country life.
But he refused to be a chief when his people lived under racial discrimination.He decided to fight for equal rights for all people in South Africa.Before 1990, under the country's Racial Segregation Law, coloured and white people lived separately.Black people were treated unfairly even when taking a bus.Blacks had to stand at the back of the bus to make room for white people even when there were only a few of them on board.
For his opposition to the system, Mandela was arrested and spent 27 years in prison.He was freed in 1990 and became the president of the country after the first election was held in which everyone could vote.
Mandela was not only a political fighter who attacked with speeches.He was also a trained boxer and fought in the ring when he was young.
“I did not enjoy the violence of boxing so much as the science of it.I was curious about how one moved one's body to protect oneself, how one used a strategy(策略)both to attack and retreat, how one paced oneself over a match, ”he wrote in his autobiography(自传).
As a skilled fighter, he chose music as his weapon against AIDS.He hoped to win another victory against AIDS.
【解题导语】 纳尔逊·曼德拉不仅为黑人争得了平等的权利, 而且当选为第一位黑人总统。他也有自己的爱好, 并且争取取得与艾滋病斗争的胜利。

5.Nelson Mandela succeeded in doing the following except________.
A.winning the equal rights for black people in South Africa
B.uniting South Africa
C.organizing a government in South Africa
D.controlling the spread of AIDS
解析:选D 理解判断题。从第五段“He was freed in 1990 and became the president of the country after the first election was held in which everyone could vote.”可知, A、B、C三项都是曼德拉做成功的事; 而由末段最后一句“He hopes to win another victory against AIDS.”可知还未取得胜利, 故选D。
6.If Nelson Mandela hadn't fought against racial discrimination, he________.
A.could easily have been the president of South Africa
B.could still have lived a happy life
C.could have been in a difficult situation

8.Which of the following statements can best describe the life of Nelson Mandela?
A.Struggle is his life.
B.Sports make his fame.

Ⅳ.七选五

__3__ Sometimes when you get home, the cake your colleague gave you as a thank-you present is mysteriously gone.Whenever you want a relaxing bath, there's no hot water left and someone wants to come in every five minutes.It's also rarely quiet.Someone always seems to have a birthday party when you want to go to bed early.
But in spite of all that, there can be some wonderful moments, like waking up to the sound of the hoover (吸尘器).__4__ And when you come home after a long day, you find your housemates making pizza with leftover vegetables while you watch a film.__5__

Arthur Miller(1915~2005)is universally recognized as one of the greatest dramatists of the 20th century.Miller's father had moved to the USA from Austria Hungary,drawn like so many others by the“Great American Dream”.However,he experienced severe financial hardship when his family business was ruined in the Great Depression of the early 1930s.
Miller's most famous play,Death of a Salesman,is a powerful attack on the American system,with its aggressive way of doing business and its insistence on money and social status as indicators of worth.In Willy Loman,the hero of the play,we see a man who has got into trouble with his worth.Willy is“burnt out” and in the cruel world of business there is no room for sentiment:if he can't do the work,then he is no good to his employer,the Wagner Company,and he must go.Willy is painfully aware of this,and at a loss as to what to do with his lack of success.He refuses to face the fact that he has failed and kills himself in the end.
When it was first staged in 1949,the play was greeted with enthusiastic reviews,and it won the Tony Award for Best Play,the New York Drama Critics Circle Award,and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama.It was the first play to win all three of these major awards.
Miller died of heart failure at his home in Roxbury,Connecticut,on the evening of February 10,2005,the 56th anniversary of the first performance of Death of a Salesman on Broadway.

第一节 (共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
Bessie Coleman
Born in Texas, Coleman moved to Chicago to find a job, but she became interested in the stories she heard from pilots returning from World War Ⅰ.However, her race (种族) and her gender (性别) kept her out of flight schools in the U.S., so she made her way to France where she could learn flying.When she returned to Chicago, Coleman had difficulty finding jobs, so she chose to be a stunt (特技) pilot.She was the first black female pilot in the U.S.and was an inspiration to early pilots and to African Americans and Native Americans.
Bessica Raiche
Bessica Raiche drove a car, shot guns and practiced medicine.Besides, she was an accomplished artist and musician.But on Oct.13, 1910, Raiche became the first American woman to make a flight in an aircraft by herself.Raiche's aviation career (航空职业) was short, as she moved to Southern California to focus on her career in medicine, later becoming president of the Orange County Medical Association.
Willa Brown
Willa Brown was the first African American woman to earn both a pilot's license (1938) and a commercial license (1939).As a former schoolteacher and social worker, Brown set up the Coffey School of Aeronautics at Chicago's Harlem Airport, which later became the first government-approved aviation training school for African Americans.
Peggy Whitson
At 57, Peggy Whitson was the world's oldest spacewoman.She has spent 500 days off Earth—more than any other woman, and in 2008, she became the first female commander of the International Space Station (ISS).She made her eighth space walk on March 30, 2017 and she beat the current record for women of 50 hours and 40 minutes of total spacewalking time.

22.Who made a contribution to aviation education?
A.Bessie Coleman.     B.Bessica Raiche.

B
In the state of Maryland, a girl was born into slavery (奴隶制) in 1820.Her parents named her Araminta Harriet Ross.She was to become Harriet Tubman.She was one of about one million Africans in slavery in the United States.
From the age of five, Harriet Tubman's owners made her work very hard.First, she cared for the child of the farm owner.Then, she did hard work on large farms.
Although she could not read or write, Tubman learned from her parents to do what was right.Through her whole life, Tubman put herself in danger to help other people.
One such act changed her life when she was 13 years old.Because she helped another slave, her owner threw a piece of metal at her and it hit her on the head.She was badly hurt.For the rest of her life, Tubman's head wound caused problems for her.
When she was about 25 years old, Harriet married a free black man named John Tubman.But she was still a slave.Her life was so difficult that she decided to escape.She travelled for 145 kilometres, and finally crossed into the North.Tubman became a free woman.
But Tubman could not leave her family enslaved in the South.So she travelled back to help them escape as well.Then, she made many trips and guided about 300 slaves to freedom.Tubman also fought bravely in the American Civil War and in 1865 slavery was not allowed in the US.
Harriet Tubman died in 1913.Her memory brings hope to many people—especially to those who fight for justice (正义).She encouraged people to never give up.
“If you want a taste of freedom, keep going.”
【解题导语】 本文是记叙文。文章主要介绍了美国杰出的黑人废奴主义运动家哈莉特·塔布曼。
25.What do we know about Harriet Tubman?
A.She was born a slave.
B.She was born in Africa.
C.She was taken to the US by a slave trader.
D.She was sold to a farm owner when she was born.
解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“a girl was born into slavery”可知,Harriet Tubman出生于奴隶家庭,也就意味着她一出生就是奴隶。
26.When she was 13 years old, Tubman ________.
A.planned to run away
B.helped a slave escape
C.fought bravely against her owner
D.was seriously wounded in her head
解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“when she was 13 years old”和“her owner threw a piece of metal at her and it hit her on the head.She was badly hurt”可知,Tubman在13岁的时候,头部受到重创。
27.We can infer from the text that Tubman was ________.
A.honest and friendly
B.strong and helpful
C.lucky and careful
D.clever and polite
解析:选B 推理判断题。根据文中对Tubman事迹的描述可知,作为奴隶的她受到非人的折磨,但她却凭借自己顽强的意志成功摆脱奴隶的身份,并且多次帮助其他奴隶获取自由。由此可知,B项准确概括了Tubman的品质特点。
28.What would be the best title for the text?
A.Africans' Fight for Freedom
B.Harriet Tubman: From Slave to Hero
C.The History of Slavery in the United States
D.The American Civil War: The North Against the South
解析:选B 标题归纳题。Harriet Tubman出身奴隶,但她渴望自由,最终逃到美国北方,获取新生。不仅如此,她还帮助无数黑奴奔向自由,成为了一名英雄。故B项作标题贴切。
C
If your dog or cat is eating grass, it means it's going to rain.
False (错误的)—maybe.There's no evidence (证据) that when a dog or cat is eating grass in the front yard it's going to rain.But then, there's no evidence that it isn't going to rain, either.Doctors think dogs and cats eat grass to help make their stomach better or maybe just because they like the taste of it.
You'll get sick if you go outside in cold weather with wet hair.
False.You might feel cold, but you can't catch a cold because you were outside with wet hair.
Many churches have prevented people from throwing rice at weddings (婚礼) because the rice grows larger in a bird's stomach when eaten, causing the bird to explode (爆炸).
True and false.It's true many churches have prevented people from throwing rice, but this is more likely because the rice can become slick (光滑的) on a road or street.There's nothing about rice that will hurt birds.Rice is an important part of many birds' food.
Chocolate is poisonous to dogs.
True.Chocolate has theobromine (可可碱), which can make your dog sick.So, if you don't want to put your dog's life at risk, don't feed it with chocolate.
The number of people visiting the hospital goes way up during a full moon.
False.According to researchers, there is no evidence that more people visit the hospital during a full moon, though more people do seem to get caught by the police during that time.The idea that the moon influences behavior has been studied for thousands of years — even the word “lunacy”, which means crazy behavior, is based on the word “luna” or “moon”.
【解题导语】 本文是说明文。文章对一些说法进行了真伪辨别。
29.In doctors' opinion, a grass-eating dog or cat ________.
A.shows animals also have stomach problems
B.behaves like that for personal reasons
C.shows animals enjoy tasty food
D.is a sign of rain
解析:选B 推理判断题。根据第一部分的“Doctors think dogs and cats eat grass to help make their stomach better or maybe just because they like the taste of it.”可知,猫狗吃草纯属自身的原因。
30.The underlined word “poisonous” in the text can best be replaced by “________”.
A.dangerous B.delicious
C.similar D.useful
解析:选A 词义猜测题。根据该部分的“if you don't want to put your dog's life at risk, don't feed it with chocolate”可知,给狗喂食巧克力可能导致它们有生命危险。
31.What's the main purpose of the text?
A.To give advice on health.
B.To report the latest discoveries in science.
C.To provide information about certain stories.
D.To test people on their knowledge of animals.
解析:选C 写作意图题。通读全文可知,本文是一篇科普性文章,作者旨在向我们辨别一些说法的真伪。故选C项。
D
We have slow food, slow travel, even slow journalism.The slow food movement reminds us of the value of locally produced, seasonal foods, just as slow travel brings us back to local traditions we miss as we fly off in search of peak experiences.In a 24-hour news era, slow journalism avoids the demands of the breaking story, revisiting and reflecting on old news.In almost every area of life, we are turning towards a world, where time is not a luxury (奢侈品) but a resting place and slowness is almost a necessity.
But that doesn't happen in schools.Courses are forced into short half terms.From the moment we go through school gates to the time we get out again a few short hours later, there must be activity, busyness and speed.Reflection is out.We don't give students the time they need to read and they turn to second-rate substitutes instead.Why read Plato when you can read a book about Plato? The answer is that what Plato wrote is much more interesting, dramatic and enjoyable than any of the thousands of books that have been written about him.
I once met a friend, a published poet.“How's the poetry going?” I asked.“It's been a good week,” he replied.“I wrote three lines.” Would we accept that rate of return from our students?
Slow teaching means giving students time to read and think.How often do we demand immediate answers to our questions? Silence is more often uncomfortable than golden in the classroom.Slow teaching also means resisting the temptation (诱惑) to finish every discussion and bring thinking to an end.Slow teaching encourages us to work for as long as the topic demands, Additionally, slow teaching means giving students time to explore the natural world and scientific concepts and time to go outside the curriculum and further explore it.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇议论文。在其他行业,人们似乎已经接受了慢节奏的生活方式,但在教育领域,慢节奏的教学仍遥不可及。
32.What is suggested in the first paragraph?
A.People find it a luxury to enjoy time.
B.Being slow is becoming a movement.
C.Slowness is a recognized culture now.
D.It is difficult for people to slow down.
解析:选C 推理判断题。结合第一段提到的慢饮食、慢旅行和慢新闻以及它们带来的好处可推知,慢节奏的活动已成为人们认可的一种文化。
33.What can we know about students' present situation?
A.They live in a fast-paced world.
B.They are more silent than active.
C.They mainly focus on reflecting.
D.They lack good reading materials.
解析:选A 细节理解题。由第二段的“there must be activity, busyness and speed.Reflection is out.We don't give students the time they need to read”,第三段的最后一句和最后一段可知,学校课程紧张,学生学习忙碌,甚至没有足够的时间思考、阅读、探索,即学生们处于一个快节奏的世界。
34.How can students benefit from slow teaching?
A.They needn't have a long teaching period.
B.They can bring an end to every discussion.
C.They have enough time to think and learn.
D.They needn't answer every question in class.
解析:选C 细节理解题。由最后一段的第一句和最后一句可知,通过慢教学,学生可以有足够的时间进行阅读、思考、探索和学习等。
