Do you love the holidays, but hate gaining weight You are not alone. Holidays are times for celebrating. Many people are worried about their weight. With proper planning, though, it is possible to keep normal weight during the holidays. The idea is to enjoy the holidays but not to eat too much. You don't have to turn away from the foods that you enjoy.
Here are some tips for preventing(阻止) weight gain and maintaining(维持) physical fitness:
Don't skip meals. Before you leave home, have a small, low-fat meal or snack. This may help to avoid getting too excited before delicious foods.
Control the amount of food. Use a small plate (about 10 inches) and put aside the large ones that may encourage you to "load up". You should be most comfortable eating an amount of food about the size of your fist.
Begin with soup and fruit or vegetables. Fill up beforehand on water-based soup and raw fruit or vegetables. Or drink a large glass of water before you eat to help you to feel full.
Stick to physical activity. Don’t let exercise take a break during the holidays. A 20-minute walk help to burn off excess calories.
Avoid(避免) high-fat foods. Dishes that look oily or creamy may have large amount of fat. Choose lean meat (瘦肉).Fill your plate with salad and green vegetables. Use lemon juice instead of creamy food.

In the depth of my memory, many things I did with my father still live. These things have come to represent(代表, 体现), in fact, what I call 36 and love.
I don’t remember my father ever getting into swimming pool. But he did 37 the water. Any kind of 38 ride seemed to give him pleasure. 39 he loved to fish; sometimes he took me along.
But I never really liked being on the water, the way my father did. I liked being 40 the water, moving through it, 41 it all around me. I was not a strong 42 , or one who learned to swim early, for I had my 43 . But I loved being in the swimming pool close to my father’s office and 44 those summer days with my father, who 45 come by on a break. I needed him to see what I could do. My father would stand there in his suit, the 46 person not in swimsuit.
After swimming, I would go 47 his office and sit on the wooden chair in front of his big desk, where he let me 48 anything I found in his top desk drawer(抽屉). Sometimes, if I was left alone at his desk 49 he worked in the lab, an assistant or a student might come in and tell me perhaps I shouldn’t be playing with his 50 . But my father always 51 and said easily, “ Oh, no, it’s 52 .” Sometimes he handed me coins and told me to get 53 an ice cream…
A poet once said, “We look at life once, in childhood; the rest is 54 .” And I think it is not only what we “look at once, in childhood” that determines our memories, but 55 , in that childhood, looks at us.

A
Life used to be fun for “teenagers”. They used to have money to spend, and free time to while(消磨) away. They used to wear teenage clothes, and meet in teenage coffee bars and discos. Some of them still do. But for many young people, life is harder now. Jobs are difficult to find. There’s not so much money around. Things are more expensive, and it’s hard to find a place to live in. Teachers say that students work harder than they used to. They are less interested in politics, and more interested in passing exams. They know that good exam results may bring them better jobs.
Most young people worry more about money than their parents did twenty years ago. They try to spend less and save more. They want to be able to get homes of their own one day.
For some, the answer to unemployment is to leave home and look for jobs in one of Britain’s big cities. Every day hundreds of young people arrive in London from other parts of Britain, looking for jobs. Some find jobs, and stay. Others don’t, and go home again, or join the unemployed in London.
When you read the newspapers and watch the news on television, it’s easy to get the idea that British young people are all unemployed, angry and in trouble. But that’s not true. Three quarters of them do more or less what their parents did. They do their best at school, find some kinds of jobs in the end, and get married in their early twenties. They get on well with their parents, and enjoy their family life. After all, if they don’t, they won’t be British, will they
56. What was not the life of young British people in the past _____.
A. They had not much money to spend
B. They had free time to while away
C. They often met in teenage coffee bars and discos
D. They had an easy life
57. Now most young British people _____.
A. work harder to spend more money
B. are more interested in politics, and less interested in passing exams
C. find it hard to find a job
D. don’t worry about money
58. From the passage we can infer _____.
A. more people lose their jobs
B. many young people go to London to look for jobs
C. all the people find jobs in London
D. the British economy gets worse
59. Which is true according to the passage _____.
A. All the young British people are employed, angry and in trouble
B. Most young people live a similar life as their parents
C. Most young people get married in their early thirties
D. Most young people do the same jobs as their parents
B
A typical day at work for Cesar Millan might include putting on his running shoes and taking a four-hour jog with 40 dogs—dogs large and small, young and old. Amazingly, most of those dogs belong to him. The rest are at the heart of his work; they are troubled dogs sent to Millan to learn good behavior.
Obviously Millan, star of the TV show Dog Whisperer and author of the best-selling book Cesar’s Way, has a special gift for working with these animals.
Growing up on a farm in Mexico, Millan knew he wanted to work with dogs. His first job, at age 15, was helping a veterinarian(兽医). He was so good at calming scared dogs and handling all kinds of situations that people started calling him “el perrero”, Spanish for “the dog boy”. Since then, he has built a rewarding career around his favorite animal.
“My grandfather taught me at an early age not to work against nature”, he explains. “In nature, dogs are pack animals. They form a group and follow one leader. Millan’s specialty is teaching people to be pack leaders for their dogs.
Studying dogs on the farm where he grew up, Millan realized they need lots of exercise to be calm. He explains his approach, “Exercise and discipline first, and then affection!” He says a lot of people get it backwards because they don’t realize what dogs really need. Therefore, while he trains dogs, he teaches owners to understand that their pets need rules. He’s helped famous people like Oprah Winfrey and movie star Will Smith and everyday people too.
To find the right career, Millan encourages kids to do what they enjoy. “A lot of people don’t realize I’ve been working with dogs for more than 20 years—long before my TV show or book. Success followed me because I was following my dream of being the best dog trainer in the world. ”
60. As a teenager, Millan became famous for _____.
A. working well with dogs B. making a life in Spain
C. being a TV star and writing a book D. showing love to many animals

For many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner. Like a border conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about boundaries: Where is the line between what I control and what you do
Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict. In part, this is because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for starting it. From the parents’ point of view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents’ complete unreasonableness. And of course, the teens see it in exactly the same way, except oppositely. Both feel trapped.
In this article, I’ll describe three no-win situations that commonly arise between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap. The first no-win situation is quarrel on unimportant things. Examples include the color of the teen’s hair, the cleanness of the bedroom, the preferred style of clothing, the child’s failure to eat a good breakfast before school, or his tendency to sleep until noon on the weekends. Second, blaming. The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong. Third, needing to be right. It doesn’t matter what the topic is—politics, the laws of physics, or the proper way to break an egg—the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong, for both wish to be considered an authority—someone who actually knows something—and therefore to command respect. Unfortunately, as long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other, they’ll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress.
64. Why does the author compare the parent-teen war to a border conflict
A. Both can continue for generations. B. Both are about where to draw the line.
C. Neither has any clear winner. D. Neither can be put to an end.
65. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean
A. The teens blame their parents for starting the conflict.
B. The teens agree with their parents on the cause of the conflict.
C. The teens accuse their parents of misleading them.
D. The teens tend to have a full understanding of their parents.
66. Parents and teens want to be right because they want to _____.
A. give orders to the other B. know more than the other
C. gain respect from the other D. get the other to behave properly
67. What will the author most probably discuss in the paragraph that follows
A. Causes for the parent-teen conflicts B. Examples of the parent-teen war
C. Solutions for the parent-teen problems D. Future of the parent-teen relationship

A healthy lifestyle is one that is full of healthy choices and behavior. It helps you keep good physical and mental health and helps you live longer. Generally speaking, the factors that contribute to a healthy lifestyle may include physical activity, a healthy diet, low stress and healthy habits. 68
69 It helps to reduce your risk of diseases, such as cancer, and diabetes(糖尿病), and helps you control your weight. As part of a healthy lifestyle, adults should participate in moderate(适度的)to intense aerobic exercises and muscle-strengthening activities regularly. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends at least 150 minutes of aerobic activity per week, such as walking, bicycling, playing tennis, swimming or aerobics.
Eating a healthy diet can help you prevent disease and keep a healthy weight. This means eating a range of whole foods from the different food groups. Overall, a healthy diet is high in plant-based foods and low in sugary and high fat foods. Meat can be part of a healthy diet if it is eaten in moderation. 70
Although stress is a natural human reaction designed to keep you out of danger, there are negative health consequences to dealing with long term stress. 71 In order to manage your stress, you need to learn what causes it and how you can deal with it. Ways to deal with unavoidable stress include exercise and talking to family or friends.
A healthy lifestyle includes healthy habits. This means protecting your skin from the sun, getting regular health check-ups and avoiding substance abuse. Smoking and tobacco use are unhealthy because they increase your risk of diseases such as cancer and heart disease. 72 It can damage your liver, cause cancer and hurt loved ones.

Miss Jenkins was born into a rich family. She liked foods that were high in fat and sugar. So she got fatter and fatter. Her workmates often laughed at her because of this. She was angry with them. But her weight brought her even more trouble. Men weren’t interested in someone so fat, so she was afraid that she would never have a boyfriend or husband. She went to see many doctors. They gave her a list of healthy diets and advised her to lose weight. Of course it was difficult for her to do so. For example, it was her birthday one day. She went to a shop and bought a nice cake. The shop assistant asked her how many pieces she wanted him to cut it into. She thought for a while and said she was losing weight, so the cake should be cut only into two, not into six!

The United States is full of cars. There are still many families without cars, but some families have two or more. However, cars are used for more than pleasure. They are a necessary part of life.
Cars are used for business. They are driven to offices and factories by workers who have no other way to get to their jobs. When salesmen are sent to different parts of the city, they have to drive in order to carry their products. Farmers have to drive into the city in order to get supplies.
Sometimes small children must be driven to school. In some cities school buses are used only when children live more than a mile away from the school. When the children are too young to walk too far, their mothers take turns driving them to school. One mother drives on Mondays taking her own children and the neighbors' as well. Another mother drives on Tuesdays, another on Wednesday, and so on. This is called forming a car pool. Men also form car pools, with three or four men taking turns driving to the place where they all work.
More car pools should be formed in order to put fewer cars on the road and use less gas. Too many cars are being driven. Something will have to be done about the use of cars.
51. The United States is filled with cars, but .

Years ago, I lived in a building in a large city. The building next door was only a few feet away from mine. There was a woman who lived there and whom I had never met, yet I could see her seated by her window each afternoon, sewing or reading.
After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear through the dirty window. I would say to myself, “I wonder why that woman doesn’t wash her window. It really looks terrible.”
One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window on the inside.
Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a surprise! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly seen. Her window was clean!
Then it dawned on me. I had been criticizing (批评) her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window.
That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings
Since then, whenever I wanted to judge (评判) someone, I asked myself first, “Am I looking at him through my own dirty window ” Then I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see others’ world about me more clearly.

59. It’s clear that ____________.
A. the writer had never met the woman before
B. the writer often washed the window

60. From the passage, we can learn ________.

Music is an international language. The songs that are sung or played by instruments are beautiful to all people everywhere.
Popular music in America is what every student likes. Students carry small radios with earphones and listen to music before class, after class and at lunch. Students with cars buy large speakers (扬声器) and play the music loudly as they drive on the street.
Adult drivers listen to music on the car radio as they drive to work. They also listen to the news about sports, the weather, politics, and activities of the American people. But most of the radio broadcast is music.
Pop or popular music singers make much money. They make a CD or tape which radio stations use in every state. Once the popular singer is heard throughout the country, young people buy his or her tapes. Some of the money from these tapes comes to the singer. Wherever the singer goes, all the young people want to meet him or her. Now the singer has become a national star.
Besides pop music, there are two other kinds of music that is important to Americans. One is called folk music. It tells stories about the common life of Americans. The other is called western or country music. This was started by cowboys who would sing at night to the cows they were watching. Today, any music about country life and the love between a country boy and his girl is called western or country music.

Recently, a scientist did some experiments.He left a group of 4-year-olds in a room with a bell and a candy. If they rang the bell, he would come back and they could eat the candy. If, however, they didn't ring the bell and waited for him to come back on his own, they could then have two candies.
In videos of the experiment, he can see the children kicking, hiding their eyes--trying to exercise self-control so they can wait and get two candies. The results are different. Some broke down and rang the bell within a minute. Others lasted 15 minutes.
The children who waited longer went on to get higher SAT scores. They got into better colleges and had better adult success. The children who rang the bell quickest were more likely to have received worse teacher and parental evaluations(评价)10 years later and were more likely to have drug problems at age 32.
The experiments are worth noting because people spend a lot of time thinking about how to improve education, how to become rich. But when the result is not good, they will come back to ask "how do we get people to get the sort of self-control that leads to success " This is the way to enter the world of human nature.
So these experiments along with everyday experience, tell us that self-control is most important. Young people who can sit through sometimes boring classes to get a degree can work hard in order to learn a language well. They can avoid drugs and alcohol. For people without self-control skills, however, school is a series of failed ordeals(煎熬).No wonder they drop out and their later life is a group of foolish ideas, such as drug use, stealing and so on.
71. The scientist did some experiments to .
A.test children's self control and later success
B.test children's intelligence of ringing the bell
C.find good ways of training children to learn
D.prove that children's education is important
72. We can learn from the experiment that .
A.all children tried to ring the bell for more candies
B.some children didn't get any candy in the end
C.the children have different self- control
D.the last one to ring the bell is most successful
73. How long did the scientist's experiments last according to the text
A.Just 15 minutes. B.Within 10 years.
C.Less than 14 years. D.More than 28 years.
74. What will those without self- control do at school according the text
A.Improving their education B.Suffering a lot from boring lessons
C.Working hard to catch up with others D.Becoming very rich and successful
75. What is the best title for this passage
A.Ways of self-control training B.Experiments on children's ringing the bell
C.Higher score, better achievements D.Self-control is the key to success

Dear Jack,
How time flies! I have been in senior high school for a whole month. At the beginning of this term, I felt a little lonely. But now I have made many new friends. By now, I have got used to my new life here. I miss all the teachers and classmates in junior middle school. At the same time, I get along well with my new classmates. The teachers here are very humorous and I like them very much. I will make good use of my time, because it is my dream to go to a good university after three years’ hard work.
Yours,

Years ago, I lived in a building in a large city. The next building was only a few feet away from mine. There was a woman living there, and I had never met her, yet I could see she sat by her window each afternoon, sewing or reading.
After several months had gone by, I began to notice that her window was dirty. Everything was unclear through the dirty window. I would say to myself. “I wonder why that woman doesn’t wash her window. It really looks terrible.”
One bright morning I decided to clean my flat, including washing the window on the inside.
Late in the afternoon when I finished the cleaning, I sat down by the window with a cup of coffee for a rest. What a surprise! Across the way, the woman sitting by her window was clearly visible (看见). Her window was clean!
Then it dawned on me. I had been criticizing (批评) her dirty window, but all the time I was watching hers through my own dirty window.
That was quite an important lesson for me. How often had I looked at and criticized others through the dirty window of my heart, through my own shortcomings
Since then, whenever I wanted to judge (评判) someone, I asked myself first, “Am I looking at him through my own dirty window ” I try to clean the window of my own world so that I may see the world about me more clearly.

VINCOUVER (Reuters)——South Korea' s Kirn Yuna can finally relax after she won the gold medal in the women' s figure skating (花样滑冰)on Thursday.

"Since I have achieved the most important goal in my life.I am going to enjoy this moment for a while and then think about what I am going to do," a smiling Yuna said.
Japanese rival Mao Asada took silver while Joannic Rochette of Canada grabbed the bronze medal four days after her mother died.
"I still cannot believe I did what I wanted to do at the Olympics.I have been dreaming about this moment and I cannot believe it is not a dream any more." said Yuna.
South Korea was counting on her to grab their first gold medal in figure skating and the first Winter Olympics gold medal outside short track and speed skating.
"I was just happy to have skated a clean program.It was the first time I skated two clean programs.During the program when I finished all elements I thought 'this is going to be yeah...this is it'.

About ten men in every hundred suffer from color blindness in some way. Women are luckier; only about one in two hundred is affected in this matter. Perhaps, after all, it is safer to be driven by a woman!
There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases a man may not be able to see deep red. He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shadows of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green---- a strange world indeed.
Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”. These help us to see in a bright light and to tell difference between colors. There are also millions of “rods”, but these are used for seeing when it is near dark. They show us shape but no color.
Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes prefer blue to yellow. A red light will not attract insects, but a blue lamp will. In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the aid of the cones in our eyes we can see many beautiful colors by day, and with the aid of the rods we can see shapes at night. One day we may even learn more about the invisible colors around us.
43. According to the passage, with the help of the “cones”, we can_______________.
A. tell different shapes B. see in a weak light
C. kill mosquitoes D. tell orange from yellow
44. Why do some people say it is safer to be driven by women
A. Women are more careful.
B. There are fewer color-blind women.
C. Women are fonder of driving than men.
D. Women are weaker but quicker in thinking.
45. We can attract and kill mosquitoes by using a _____________.
A. red light B. yellow light C. blue light D. green light

Dear Sir,
I have to travel every day from So UK Road to the airport. Two buses travel along this route: No.49 and No.16. However, by the time No.16 reaches So UK Road, it is always full. 46
The timetable states that there are buses from So UK Road to the airport every ten minutes. 47 The instructions state that if there are empty seats on a bus, the bus must stop at every stop where people are waiting. 48
The instructions state that no bus may carry more than 40 seated passengers and 20 standing passengers. Yesterday, I was the first to get off the bus when it reached the airport. 49 There were 129 of them.
Clearly printed on the back of every bus is a sign that says “Maximum speed: 50mph.” 50 Saturday morning a No. 49 bus traveled the distance in ten minutes, at an average speed of 60 mph. At times it must have done at least 80 or even 90 mph.
It is obvious that our bus companies have neither respect for the instructions nor consideration for their passengers. Can nothing be done about this
Jerry
A. I counted the other passengers as they got off.
B. Is there anything we can do to change this
C. The problem is that we have to pay more for our trip.
D. The distance from So UK Road to the airport is 10 miles.
E. This leaves No.49 which sometimes has empty seats on it.
F. If this is so, why do I have to wait half an hour for a bus nearly every day
G. Why is it that half-empty buses go straight past me when I am standing at the bus stop

My parents and I went to the park last Sunday. There were lots of visitors stand in front of the ticket window. We waited a long time and buy three tickets. In the Tiger Mountain of the park, I was too eager to see the fierce frightened animals that I quickened my steps through the crowd. Unfortunate,I got separated from my parents. I had hard time looking for them, and I had no luck. Wandering in the park,I felt alone without any companions. Worse still,I had no money, so I had to walk to home, covering as much as 5 kilometer.

There was once a rich old abbot (男修道院院长) in England who lived a very rich life. When King John, who was the worst king that England ever had, heard of the way in which the abbot lived, he decided to stop it. So he sent for the old man and said, “Your fault is clear, and unless you can answer me three questions within two weeks, your head shall be cut off, and all your money shall be mine. Firstly, you must tell me just how long I shall live. Secondly, you must tell me how long I shall ride round the whole world, and lastly, you shall tell me what I think.”
The abbot went to Oxford and Cambridge for help but not one of the teachers in the great schools could. At last, sad and sorrowful, he rode towards home. Then he met his shepherd and told him all that had happened.
“Cheer up, good master. I think I can help you out of your trouble.”
The shepherd dressed himself up with great care and looked just like the abbot. Then he went to the king.
“How long shall I live ” “You will live until the day that you die, and not one day longer.”
“How long shall I ride round the world ” “You must rise with the sun, and you must ride with the sun until it rises again the next morning. As soon as you do that, you will find that you have ridden round the world in twenty-four hours.”
“What do I think ” “You think that I am the abbot. But, to tell you the truth, I am only his poor shepherd, and I come to beg your pardon for him and for me.”
The king laughed long. “Very well then, you have won the old abbot a free pardon from King John for this joke.”

Our world is changing with ever increasing speed and many people are finding it difficult to keep up with it. Although no one can control the world at large, people do have the ability to control their personal world by controlling stress and their reactions to it.
Of course a certain amount of stress is normal and healthy for humans but too much can be fatal. According to a report, 80% of patient visits to their doctors are because of stress. Over one million people in the U.S. die each year because of diseases related to stress. This includes lung cancer, heart disease and high blood pressure.
The results of stress or the ways it shows in a person's life are, in part, their reactions to the situation. Some of the ways in which stress "shows up" are needed to be found before more serious diseases develop. A few of these are: stomachaches, chest pain, too much sleeping or drinking, worry and sadness.
The good news is that these reactions can be changed. By using positive suggestions, a hypnotists(催眠治疗师)can help us make great changes. A deep, relaxing hypnotic rest is very safe, pleasant and enjoyable.
If you would like to get the tools to reduce stress naturally, hypnotism can be very helpful. A professional hypnotist not only guides people through stress reducing exercises and offers suggestions for dealing with stress, but also teaches self hypnosis skills which can be used throughout life.
39. The passage is most probably taken from_____.
A. a short-story collection B. a lifestyle magazine
C. a research paper D. a personal diary

A. No one can control their personal world. B.A certain amount of stress doesn't do harm to us.
C. Few of people die of diseases related to stress. D.A hypnotist cannot help people reduce stress.
42. What would be the best title for the passage
A. Reduce stress naturally B. Bad effects of stress
C. How to learn hypnosis D. Stress reducing tips

This year I went to Wales for my holiday and it was the best time I've ever had. Most of my friends were boasting(吹擂) about going abroad. They told me Wales will be really boring, so I wasn't looking forward to it at all. But that all changed when I got there. The weather was wonderful; so was the hotel. I did a lot of water sports and played football on the beach with friends I have made. You don't need to go abroad to have a great time, after all!

__52__Good or normal stress might happen when you're called to answer a question in class or when you have to give a speech. This kind of stress can help you to get things better done.__53__

D. That kind of stress isn't going to help you, and it can actually make you sick.

There is a wonderful story about a young girl who had no family and no one to love her.
One day, feeling very sad and lonely, she was walking through a grassland when she noticed a small butterfly caught in a thorn(荆棘)bush. The young girl carefully released the butterfly. Instead of flying away, the little butterfly changed into a beautiful fairy. The young girl rubbed her eyes in disbelief.
“For your wonderful kindness,” the good fairy said to the girl, “I will give you any wish you would like.” The little girl thought for a moment and then replied, “I want to be happy.”
The fairy leaned toward her and whispered(耳语)in her ear. Then the fairy disappeared.
As the little girl grew up, there was no one in the land as happy as she. Everyone asked her secret of happiness. She would only smile and answer, “The secret of my happiness is that I listened to a good fairy when I was a little girl.”
When she was very old and on her deathbed, the neighbors all gathered around her, afraid that her unbelievable secret of happiness would die with her. “Tell us, please,” they begged, “Tell us what the good fairy said.” The lovely old woman simply smiled and said, “She told me that everyone, no matter how secure(安全的)they seemed, no matter how old or young, how rich or poor, had need of me.”

Last week my youngest son and I visited my father at his new home in Tucson, Arizona. He moved there a few years ago, and I was eager to see his new place and meet his friends.
My earliest memories of my father are a tall, handsome, successful man devoted to his work and his family, but uncomfortable with his children. As a child I loved him; as a school girl and young adult(成年人)I feared him and felt bitter about him. He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A’s and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers were not as “successful” as he was. Whenever I went out with him on weekends, I used to struggle to think up things to say, feeling on guard.
On the first day of my visit, we went out with one of my father’s friends for lunch at an outdoor café. We talked along that afternoon, did some shopping, ate on the street table, and laughed over my son’s funny facial expressions. Gone was my father’s critical (挑剔的) air and strict rules. Who was this person I knew as my father, who seemed so friendly and interesting to be around What had held him back before
The next day dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories about his own childhood. Although our times together became easier over the years, I never felt closer to him at that moment. After so many years, I’m at last seeing another side of my father. And in so doing, I’m delighted with my new friend. My dad, in his new home in Arizona, is back to me from where he was.

The English translations of the names of traditional Chinese dishes on menus across the country have caused public discussion about the precision(准确) of the translations.
Since more and more foreigners come to China every day, many restaurants around China are providing English translations of their menus. They want to make it easier for foreigners to order Chinese dishes when they travel. Some restaurants also hope that the translations will increase foreigners’ knowledge of Chinese cuisine(烹饪).
But an article in China Youth Daily says the English menu translations haven’t live up to public expectation(期望). It argues most of the English names of Chinese dishes lack the cultural meaning and attraction of the dishes they describe. Instead, the translations only provide a list of each dish’s ingredients, the article notes. For example, one English name of a Chinese dish appears as “stir-fried mutton slice with Chinese onion and green scallion(葱爆羊肉)”.
Because the English translation focuses only on the ingredients, it fails to describe the dish’s rich cultural meaning and charm. The dish’s beautiful Chinese name, “Fo Tiao Qiang(佛跳墙)”, has a story behind it. Buddhist monks (和尚) are required to eat vegetables only , but they can’t resist(忍住)the delicious dish. So they jump over the temple walls to get a taste of the dish.
The article suggests that translators provide more beautiful translations of the names of Chinese dishes. It also notes a more vivid(生动的) English translation is very important to provide international visitors with a better understanding of Chinese cuisine.
68. Why do many restaurants provide English translations of their menu
Because they want to show their ingredients in dishes.
Because the public expect them to do so.
Because Chinese dishes are popular.
Because it is convenient for foreigners to order food.
69. According to China Youth Daily, what is the main problem of the English menu translation
They are too long to remember.
Many of them are not correct.
They lack cultural meaning and attraction.
They are difficult to learn.
70. What can we infer from the story of “Fo Tiao Qiang” dish
Monks can jump high.
Monks lived a poor life.
Old China had little meat for people.
The dish attracted many people because it’s delicious.

Now liberal(开明) education has a great 38 on the world. Much work has been done to 39 better ways of teaching.

In liberal education, punishment 43 exists. Teachers and students are just like 44 . The idea is of course a perfect one if it can really be carried out.

Just close your eyes and think how many students 48 in every hundred 49 will carry out the duties of a student if they are not 50 What is the use of advice only if it is not supported by a 51 degree of control and punishment It is 52 for us to judge the success and failure of this kind of education now, but from the bad behavior of children that is actually the 53 of 54 , we can see that something must be done to 55 these children.

第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)
A
Confucius said.“In a group of three people, there is always something I can learn. Choose to follow the strengths of others, and use their shortcomings to reflect upon ourselves."
As you can see from what Confucius said, everyone that we come across can teach us something useful. As long as we learn from other people, we can continuously improve ourselves. But take note that when you reflect on these lessons, you apply some wisdom to each lesson because each situation is unique although they share some common principles.
We can learn a lot from everyone. We always tend to think that we can only learn from those who have more knowledge than us, but that is not really the case. We can learn from those who are lower than us in status(身份) as well,because the experience and knowledge of each person is very different.
The best thing about this type of learning, reflecting other people's strengths and shortcomings onto ourselves, is that we do not pay for the mistakes that are made. The only cost to us is the time that is needed to learn about and reflect on these lessons from other people’s lives.
As we all know , some mistakes can be ones which people cannot afford to make, for instance a broken friendship or a financial loss. Thus constantly using other people's strengths and shortcomings to reflect upon ourselves makes us realize the costs of these mistakes and reduce the possibility that we make similar mistakes.
56. The underlined part “this type of learning” in the fourth paragraph probably refers to .
A. Learning from other people’s mistakes.
B. Learning from other’s experience.
C. Finding what strengths and shortcomings other people have.
D. Reflecting other’s strengths and shortcomings onto ourselves.
57. From the fifth paragraph, we learn that .
A. sometimes we can afford the costs of a broken friendship
B. our reflecting will necessarily reduce our mistakes.
C. some reflection will help to improve ourselves.
D. reflection will stop us from making any mistakes in life
58. The passage is probably taken from .
A. a magazine about life B. a book about travel
C. an advertisement D. a research report
B
Life will probably be very different in 2050.First of all, it seems that TV channels will have disappeared by 2050.Instead,people will choose a program from a "menu" and a computer will send the program directly to the television.Today, we can use the World Wide Web to read newspaper stories and see pictures on a computer thousands of kilometers away.By 2050,music,films,programs,newspapers,and books will come to us in this way.
In many places, agriculture is developing quickly and people are growing fruit and vegetables for export. This uses a lot of water. Therefore, there could be serious shortages. Some scientists predict that water could be the cause of war if we don’t act now.
In future, cars will run on new,clean fuels and they will go very fast.Cars will have computers to control the speed of them and there won’t be any accidents.Today,many cars have computers that tell drivers exactly where they are.By 2050,the computer will control the car and drive it to your destination.Space planes will take people halfway around the world in 2 hours.Today,the United States Space Shuttle can go into space and land on Earth again.By 2050,space planes will fly people from Los Angeles to Tokyo in just two hours.
Some big companies now prefer to use robots that do not ask for pay rises or go on strike, and work 24 hours a day. By 2050,we will see robots everywhere—in factories,schools,offices, hospitals,shops and homes.
Nowadays, Scientists will have discovered how to control genes.Scientists have already produced clones of animals.By 2050,scientists will be able to produce clones of people,and decide how they look, how they behave and how much intelligence they have.Scientists will be able to do these things but should they

The response to her request for help was so huge that Poe established Kids For A Cleaner Environment (Kids F.A.C.E.) in 1989. There are now 300,000 members of Kids F.A.C.E worldwide and it is the world’s largest youth environmental organization.

Ongoing tree-planting projects include Kid’s Yards — the creation of backyard wildlife habitats (栖息地) — and now Kids F.A.C.E. is involved in the exciting Earth Odyssey, which is a great way to start helping.
“Starting the club turned out to be a way to help people get involved with the environment. Club members started doing things like recycling, picking up litter and planting trees as well as inviting other kids to join their club.”

71 being angry doesn’t really solve much, but what people do when they feel angry is important. The goal is to calm down and try to solve what is bothering you. This is hard for some kids and adults too. Instead of calming down, some kids might keep getting more and more upset until they explode like a volcano!
72 Their anger might be so strong that they lose control of their temper. They may act in ways unacceptable and hurtful. People may say that someone has trouble controlling their temper. 73 .
Some kids might get so angry that they scream at their parents, break something, or even worse, hit their brothers or sisters. 74 However, it’s not OK for a kid to do any of those things. Kids don’t want to act in this way, but sometimes angry feelings can be hard to manage. So what to do
Well, the good news is that kids don’t just have to keep making the same mistakes over and over again. 75 Imagine your temper as a puppy inside you that needs some training. The puppy is not bad ---it will probably turn out a great dog. It just needs to learn some rules because, right now, that puppy is causing some problems to you.
You can train your temper
You don’t want to cause trouble
Kids should be allowed to express their feeling, even angry ones.
Everybody gets angry sometimes.
In fact, they usually mean that a kid behaves badly when feeling angry.
Instead of thinking of the person you’re angry with, think of something else.
Some kids get angry more often or more easily than some other kids.

Martin Luther King, a great leader of American black people, was born in Atlanta Georgia of America on January 15th, 1929. When he was young, he was very smart, but he often experienced racism. When he was at college, he was influenced by Gandhi’s idea about peaceful protest. Later, he organized many peaceful protests to win equal rights for black people and was put in prison several times for that. In 1963, tens and thousands of negroes heard his most famous speech: “I have a dream...”. In 1964, King received the Nobel Peace Prize. Unfortunately, he was killed by a white man who hated black people. However, he will always be remembered for what he did for black people in America.河南省商丘市第二高级中学11-12学年高一第二次月考试题(英语)

Elephants
Elephants are the biggest animals on land.When born,a baby elephant weighs about 90 kilograms and is about one metre high.When it is six years old,it is about two metres high.When it reaches the age of twelve,it doesn’t grow any more.It may then be more than three metres high.African elephants are bigger than Indian elephants.
Elephants have very long noses which we call trunks.The elephant uses its trunk to get food.It picks leaves and fruits with its trunk and puts the food into its mouth.When it wants to drink,it puts its trunk into the water.It fills its trunk and then draws the water into its mouth.
Elephants have two very long and strong teeth which are called tusks.They use their tusks to dig up small trees and to dig in the ground for water.
Elephants also use their tasks and trunks to lift heavy logs of wood.In some countries men catch wild elephants and train them to work for them.All day long they work in the hot sun.They pull trees along and lift heavy logs.No animals are stronger than elephants.
Wild elephants usually stay together in big families.Usually they move about at night.looking for food.In the hot daytime,they go to sleep in cool places.

We should protect the wildlife
At present,the number of wild animals has decreased rapidly,and some species are even facing the danger of extinction.It is man who has destroyed their habitat.If a large number of wild animals die out,we will break the balance of nature.In turn,we will be punished by nature.
Wild animals are our friends.We should try our best to protect them.Measures should be taken as follows.First,try to tell everyone it is our duty to protect wild animals.Second,nature reserves should be set up to make their living conditions comfortable.Third,laws should be made to forbid all those illegal deeds done to wild animals.Fourth,the government should encourage ecologiststo do much scientific research into the wildlife.

Science can’t explain the power of pets,but many studies have shown that the company of pets can help lower blood pressure(血压) and raise chances of recovering from a heart attack,reduce loneliness and spread all-round good cheer.
Any owner will tell you how much joy a pet brings.For some.an animal provides more comfort than a husband/wife.A 2002 study by Karen Allen of the State University of New York measured stress(紧张)1evels and blood pressure in people-half of them pet owners-while they performed 5 minutes of mental arithmetic(算术)or held a hand in ice water.Subjects completed the tasks alone,with a husband/wife,a close friend or with a pet.People with pets did it best.Those tested with their animal friends had smaller change in blood pressure and returned most quickly to baseline heart rates.With pets in the room,people also made fewer math mistakes than when doing in front of other companions.It seems people feel more relaxed(放松)around pets,says Allen,who thinks it may be because pets don’t judge.
A study reported last fall suggests that having a pet dog not only raises your spirits but may also have an effect on your eating habits.Researchers at Northwestern Memorial Hospital spent a year studying 36 fat people and their equally fat dogs on diet-and-exercise programs;a separate group of 56 people without pets were put on a diet program.On average,people lost about 11 pounds,or 5% of their body weight.Their dogs did even better,losing an average of 12 pounds,more than 15%of their body weight.Dog owners didn’t lose any more weight than those without dogs but,say researchers,got more exercise overall-mostly with their dogs--and found it worth doing.

Some 80 percent of graduate students in East China’s Zhejiang Province said in a survey they will give up trying to find jobs in Beijing,Shanghai and Guangzhou,first-tier cities in China that have been considered dream places for many,because of the untouchable home prices and high living costs.
The Yangtse Evening Post conducted the survey among 50 job seekers who were attending Sunday’s job fair in Jiangsu for graduate students.The survey showed graduates are becoming more realistic in their job search despite the job market becoming better.
The fair attracted more than 10,000 graduate students with 7,382 positions.
“The pressure of buying a house in Beijing is unbelievable,”said Wang Jian from Nanjiing Normal University,who acknowledged he had thought about finding a job in Beijing,Shanghai or Guangzhou,but in the face of huge pressures,he has no choice but to be “realistic”.
People can have a very comfortable life in Nanjing with a monthly salary of between 3,000 yuan($450)and 4,000 yuan,but in Shanghai,5,000 yuan a month can only help you survive and buying a house will remain a dream.
A student from Nanjing University of Science and Technology said he just turned down an offer from a Shanghai company of 7,000 yuan a month because“living costs in Shanghai are too high.”
An unnamed male student from Nanjing University said he will try first-tier cities only if he can get a high salary.“I would go to Beijing only if I can earn 200,000 yuan a year,”he said.
“Beijing,Shanghai and Guangzhou once had the advantages that other cities don’t have,but the high housing prices and living costs make young people barely able to breathe,”said Ren Leiming from the job service center of Jiangsu’s colleges and universities.21世纪教育网
“First-tier cities have plenty of talents that make it hard for people to be outstanding,and if you go work in smaller cities you can become a dominant player at your position much more easily,”said Ren.
57.The majority of graduate students will give up trying to find jobs in the first-tier cities because .
A.it is not easy to find jobs there.
B.home prices and living costs there are very high.
C.they can’t make full use of their knowledge and skills there.
D.monthly salaries there are low compared with those in other cities.
58.Which of the following statements is TRUE about the job market now
A.There are more job opportunities offered now.
B.The job markets are becoming more and more competitive.21世纪教育网
C.Many graduate students aren’t satisfied with the working conditions.
D.Companies and enterprises have stricter rules to take in graduate students.
59.We can learn from the news report that .
A.in Shanghai,5,000 yuan a month can only help you buy a luxury house
B.the fair attracted more than 10,000 graduate students and laid-off workers with 7,382 positions
C.The Yangtse Evening Post conducted the survey among 50 personnel managers who were attending Sunday’s joh fair in Jiangsu for graduate students

Suddenly,I felt the touch of something bright and friendly.It made me feel happy,lively and warm.
64 I started to talk with other students and made friends.Day by day,I became closer to everyone in my class.The boy with the lucky smile has become my best friend now !
65 I believe that the world is what you think it is.If you think it lonely,you might always be alone.So smile at the world and it will smile back.

Kenyon Scudder once told me a story about his friend, Michael. Michael happened to be on a train sitting next to a young man who seemed worried. Finally the young man told the friend that he was a convict (罪犯) returning home from a prison far away. What he did had brought shame (羞耻) on his family, and they had neither visited him nor written to him. He hoped, however, that this was only because they were too poor to travel and too busy to write.
When he was set free he had written to tell them he wanted to go home. To make matters easy for them, however, he had asked them to put up a signal (信号) for him when the train passed their little farm. If the family had forgiven (原谅) him, they were to put up a white ribbon (丝带) in the big apple tree near the railway. If they didn't want him back, they were to do nothing, and he would stay on the train, and go far away.
As the train neared his hometown his suspense became so great that he was afraid to look out of the window. He asked Michael to watch for the big apple tree. They changed seats. In a minute, Michael put his hand on the young convict’s shoulder. "There it is," he said, his eyes filled with sudden tears. "It’s all right. The whole tree is white with ribbons."
36. For which of the following reasons might the young man be worried
A. His family might not allow him to go home.
B. His family would not remember him.
C. His family hadn’t written to him frequently.
D. His family hadn’t visited him for a long time.
37. According to the passage, the white ribbon in the big apple tree means ________.
A. pleasure B. forgiveness C. happiness D. education
38. The word "suspense" underlined in the last paragraph can best be replaced by ________.
A. pain B. interest C. worry D. happiness
39. Why did Michael cry at the end of the story
A. The young man couldn’t live with his family.
B. There were many white ribbons on the apple tree.
C. He was moved by the young man.
D. The young man was very sad.
B
The best way to cure sadness is not shopping, according to a recent study. The so-called shopping method has become common practice these days, but that can put your wallet under a lot of pressure. So if you are sad and feel like shopping, don’t!
According to the recent study, sadness leads to self-focus (自我为中心的) thinking. In other words, sad people are willing to spend more money on the same thing than calm people.
"It is the result of sadness and self-focus, and it turns out that sadness leads to an increase in self-focus," said Cynthia Cryder. "What we think is that sad and self-focused people are feeling pretty bad about themselves, and one way to deal with this is buying material goods."
In a perfect situation, when you know you are sad, you should avoid(避免) making decisions and spending money. Sounds simple Sadly, it is not. Most people don’t even know they’re sad, the study shows, and they are not aware that their feelings influence their decisions.
What to do The study showed that those who watched a tragedy(悲剧) were more likely to spend three times more money for a simple bottle of water than those who watched a comedy. The solution: well, for starters, don’t go shopping! If you can’t help it, it is probably better to see a doctor.
40. When you can’t help shopping after feeling sad, you’d better _______.
A. talk to your friends B. go to the store directly
C. go to bed and rest D. go to hospital and get checked out by a doctor
41. We can learn from the passage that________.
A. sad and self-focused people are poor
B. sad people make important decisions easily
C. tragedies may make people buy more expensive goods
D. sad people are less confident than calm people
42. What would be the best title for this passage
A. The Loss of Money Caused by Sadness
B. Shopping is Not the Best Way to Cure Sadness
C. A Study About How to Stay in a Good Mood
D. How to Make Decisions When You Are Sad

About three hundred words in the English language come from the names of people. Many of these words are technical words. When there is a new invention of discovery, a new word may be coined(杜撰) after the inventor or scientist.
It is interesting to observe how many common words have found their way into the language from the names of people. Lord Sandwich, who lived from 1718-1792,used to sit at the gambling(赌博) table eating bread with meat in between. As the Lord was the only one among his friends who ate bread in that way, his friend began to call the bread “sandwich” for fun.. Later on the word became part of the English language.
The word “boycott” means to refuse to have anything to do with somebody or something. It comes from a man called Captain Boycott. He was a land agent in 1880 and he collected rents and taxes for an English landowner in Ireland. But the Captain was a very harsh(苛刻的) man. He treated his poor tenants (佃户) very badly. His tenants decided not to speak to him at all. Eventually word got back to the landowner and the Captain was removed. The word “boycott” became popular and was used by everyone to mean the kind of treatment that was received by Captain Boycott.
43. “Sandwich” is a word coined by ____________.
A. Lord Sandwich B. the friends of Lord Sandwich C. inventors D. scientists[来源:21世纪教育网]
44. Captain Boycott lived in the _________.
A. Seventeenth century B. eighteenth century C. nineteenth century D. twentieth century
45. The tenants did not like ___________.
A. to collect rents and taxes B. the English landowner C. the harsh land agent D. to speak

A
Have you ever set a goal for yourself Like lots of people, maybe you started out doing great, but then lost some of that drive and had trouble getting motivated(激励)again. Everyone struggles with staying motivated and reaching their goals.
Check in with your goal.
It helps if you write down your small goals in the same way you wrote down your big goal. That way you can follow what you need to do, check off tasks as you finish them, and enjoy knowing that you’re moving toward your big goal. If you’re feeling weak on willpower, you can look at your list to help you change!
Go on with your goal if you slip up(出差错)。
If you slip up, don’t give up. Forgive yourself and make a plan for getting back on road. Most people slip up when trying to make a change—it’s a natural part of the process.
Share with a friend.
Another way is having supportive people around you. Having a goal partner can make all the difference in times when you don’t feel motivated. If you’re not getting support from someone when you really need it, you may need to take a break from that friendship and make friends with people who want to help you succeed.
Don’t give up!
Ending an unhealthy behavior or creating a new, exciting one is all about taking responsibility for our lives. Finding the motivation to do it isn’t easy, but it is always possible. You can stay motivated by writing down your goals, sticking to your plan, and reminding yourself of what led you to set your goal in the first place. Change is exciting —we’d all be very bored without it.
Good luck in reaching your goals!
36.The underlined word “drive” in the first paragraph refers to ____.
A. the wish to achieve a goal B. the need to have great energy
C. the pressure to drive fast D. the strong energy to drive
37.If a person slips up, the author thinks of it as _____.
A. strange B. natural C. necessary D. wrong
38.What is the advice for staying motivated
To set a big goal in the first place. B. To share a goal with your friend.
C. To divide your goal into small ones. D.To make a plan for changing your goal.
39.The passage is mainly about how to _____.
help your friend succeed at last. B. set a big goal and reach it.
C. deal with a friend who offers no support. D.keep motivated to achieve your goal.

It was Friedrich Nietzsche(尼采)who wrote “Against boredom(厌倦)the gods themselves fight in vain”. Although the idea of the German philosopher will certainly be lost on the millions of schoolchildren over the Easter holiday, their parents can find comfort in his words as they struggle to keep their kids entertained for two weeks.
A teacher has set out to prove that boredom—far from being a bad thing—is a naturally occurring emotion that should not be controlled. Dr Richard Ralley, a psychology lecturer at Edge Hill College in Ormskirk, Lancashire, has undertaken a study of boredom.
He said, “Boredom can be a good thing. In psychology we think of emotions as being functional. Fear, anger and envy all serve a purpose, but they’re painted in a bad light even though they exist for a reason. It’s the same with boredom, which also has a bad name. We get bored because we get fed up when we have nothing to do and feel the need to be productive. We feel bad when we’re not productive and that’s what boredom is connected with.”
“Boredom is something; it’s not just switching off. It can be useful. When there’s nothing rewarding going on, we keep energy, so that when we want to re-engage, we can. There’s a balance between doing something that’s rewarding and doing something that’s rewarding but not being happy about doing it.”
“It may be better to leave children to their own devices and let them recover from their last term at school.”
40. The underlined word “his”(in Paragraph 1)refers to _____.
A. Parent’s B. God’s C. Friedrich Nietzsche’s D. kids
41. When the writer quotes “Against boredom the gods themselves fight in vain”(in Paragraph 1), he means _____.
A. boredom is a natural emotion B. God can help you when you are bored

Taking good notes is a time-saving skill that will help you to become a better student in several ways. 44 Second, your notes are excellent materials to refer to when you are studying for a test. Third, note-taking offers variety to your study time and helps you to hold your interest.
You will want to take notes during classroom discussions and while reading a textbook or doing research for a report. 45 whenever or however you take notes, keep in mind that note-taking is a selective process. 46
The following methods may work best for you.
· Read the text quickly to find the main facts and ideas in it.
· Carefully read the text and watch for words that can show main points and supporting facts.
· Write your notes in your own words.
· 47
· Note any questions or ideas you may have about what was said or written.
As you take notes, you may want to use your own shorthand(速记). When you do, be sure that you understand your symbols and that you use them all the time. 48
Use words, not complete sentences.
There are three practical note-taking methods.
You must write your notes on separate paper.
Otherwise, you may not be able to read your notes later.
You will also want to develop your own method for taking notes.
That means you must first decide what is important enough to include in your notes.
First, the simple act of writing something down makes it easier for you to understand and remember it.

In a great many cities, hundreds of people ride bikes to work every day. In New York, some bike riders have even formed a group called Bike for a Better City . They declare that if more people rode bikes to work, there would be fewer automobiles in the downtown part of the city and so less dirty air from car engines.
For several years this group has been trying to get the city government to help bike riders. For example , they want the city to draw special lanes( 车道) for bikes on some of the main streets, because when bike riders must use the same lanes as cars there are accidents. Bike foe a Better City feels that if there were special lanes, more people would use bikes.
But no bike lanes have been drawn . Not everyone thinks it is a good idea- they say it will slow traffic. Some store owners on the main streets don’t like the idea- they say that if there is less traffic , they will have less business.
The city government has not yet decided what to do. It wants to keep everyone happy. On weekends, Central Park- the largest place of open ground in New York-it closed to cars, and the roads may be used by bike only.

An appeal was being made for anyone who knew the man — who had memory loss—to give information.
John Renehan:
Well I knew at that very moment that was my dad. I knew at that very moment. Obviously his face, it was a bit changed, but I just knew at that very moment that was my dad. It emerged that John Delaney had been living in a care home for the last eight years.

Do your kids like plastic toys Well, I guess it’s time for them to play with wooden toys.
I have always liked kids’ wooden toys since I was five. I always ran along on the back of a hobby horse pretending to be a cowboy from the West when I was a little boy. Now I’m a dad and I still like buying these timeless natural wooden toys. They will never be out of style. My daughter has a child’ rocking horse, and my two sons have wooden trains and cars. The great thing about his type of toys is that they will last generations if they are treated kindly. Even if they break, most of the time they can be repaired using spare parts bought from wooden-toy makers, and if the part is not too complicated, you yourself can make the part from a piece of wood.
What if they do break and can’t be repaired Well, at least they can be dealt with without having any bad effects on the environment. They can be turned into wood chippings and used for pathways in the country or play areas for kids. Even if the wooden toy is buried as rubbish, which is very rare these days, it will not harm the soil or the environment.
I like all types of wooden toys. There is such a wide variety of wooden toys today and the choice is getting bigger day by day. As an alternative to plastic toys, wooden toys can’t be beaten. I’m sure in the near future wood will no doubt become the number one material for making toys, as plastic becomes more and more expensive because if rising oil prices and the environmental issues concerning plastic. Plastic toys might harm kids’ health, too.
66. Why does the author say wooden toys are timeless
A. Because wooden toys can be repaired easily.
B. Because wooden toys do not cost much.
C. Because wooden toys are good for the environment.
D. Because wooden toys will never be out of style.
67. According to the author, wooden toys which can’t be repaired will ______.
A. be taken back by the makers. B. need a lot of money to deal with.
C. not harm the environment. D. be collected by collectors.
68. From the last paragraph, we can learn that ______.
A. plastic will be used up sooner or later.
B. plastic toys will not be allowed to be sold very soon.
C. wooden toys will become more popular in the future.
D. wooden toys will become more and more expensive.
69. Which of the following is NOT the reason why plastic toys will be less popular in the future
A. That plastic has bad effects on the environment.
B. That plastic toys might harm the health of children.
C. That plastic toys offer children few choices.
D. That oil prices are getting higher than before.
70. We can infer that this passage is written to ______.

What is it that everyone wants more than anything else?What is it that all of us keep working and striving for (奋斗) each day?It is happiness.

Too many people want others to be their friends, but they don't give friendship back. That is why some friendships don't last long. To have a friend, you must learn to be one. You must learn to treat your friend the way you want your friend to treat you. Learning to be a good friend means learning three rules: be honest; be generous; be understanding.
Honesty is where a good friendship starts. Friends must be able to trust one another. If you do not tell the truth, people usually find out. If a friend finds out you haven't been honest, you may lose friend’s trust. Good friends always count on one another to speak and act honestly.
Generosity means sharing and sharing makes a friendship grows. You do not have to give your lunch money or your clothes. Naturally you will want to share your ideas and feelings. These can be very valuable to a friend. They tell your friend what is important to you. By sharing them, you help your friend know better.
Sooner or later everyone needs understanding and help with a problem. Something may go wrong at school. Talking about the problem can make it easier to solve. Turning to a friend can be a first step in solving the problem. So to be a friend you must listen and understand. You must try to put yourself in your friend's place so you can understand the problem later.
No two friendships are very exactly alike. But all true friendships have three things in common. If you plan to keep your friends, you must practice honesty, generosity and understanding.
44. Some friendships don't last very long because _______.
A. there are too many people who want to make friends.
B. some people receive friendship but don't give friendship back.
C. those who give others friendship receive friendship from others.
D. they don't know friendship is something serious.
45. According to the passage, honesty is _______.
A. something countable B. the base of friendship
C. as important as money D. more important than anything else
46. Which of the following isn't mentioned in the passage
A. Always tell your friends the truth.
B. Sharing your mind with your friends is of great value.
C. Discussing your problems with your friend often helps to solve the problem.
D. A friend who gives you his lunch money is a true friend.

月考试题答案
Dear Editor,
I’m a senior high school student. I’m writing to ask for help because many of us feel so stressful that we can hardly stand the great pressure.
Every day we have to stay at school for about nine hours to have lessons and spend another three or four hours doing our homework. As teenagers, we are eager to have some free time to enjoy ourselves, but we hardly have time to do what we like. Besides, we don’t have enough sleep because of the pressure of the examinations, too much homework and the high expectations from the parents. We are often warned that if we don’t do our best, we won’t have the chance to go to university.
I think this is too hard for us students. What should we do

Americans often plan social gatherings on short notice,so don’t be surprised if you get
invited to someone’s home or to see a movie or baseball game without much warning.If the time is convenient for you,surely accept their invitation.But if you’re busy,don’t be afraid to decline the invitation,perhaps suggesting a time that would be better.Your host won’t be shamed.
Invitations are usually sent in person or over the telephone.The main exception(例外)is for some formal occasions,in which case a written invitation will be mailed.You would normally receive a written invitation to a wedding(婚礼).

If you’re invited for dinner,it’s proper to bring the host a bottle of wine.a gift basket of fruit,a box of candy,or a bouquet(束)of flowers.Don’t bring roses,as men often give roses to women on a date.

2011-2012高一上学期第三次周训练答案
一:1-5 ADAAB 6-10 ACCAA 11-15 BACDB
二:16-20 ACBDA 21-25 CDCDA 26-30 DCCBC 31-35 ADBDA
三:36-40 CDABB 36. 选C.文章第1段说Tommy数学学不好,其父母想尽了一切办法都不奏效,最后将他送进了一所天主教的教会学校。
37. 选D.认真阅读第2段前面几句话,并注意以下信息:After the first day, little Tommy came home…didn‘t kiss his mother hello…was hard at work…without a word. 可知答案应选D.
38. 选A.根据文章大意和Finally, little Tommy brought home his report card. He quietly put it on the table and went up to his room and hit the books这个句子的语境,可知hit the books的意思是“用功”。
39. 选B.Tommy学习一直不用功,但自从进了这所catholic school之后,情况就不一样了——整天都发狠读书,结果数学考试也得了A.这是为什么呢?文章在最后道出了其原因:Well, on the first day of school, when I saw that man nailed (钉) to the plus sign (加号), I knew they weren‘t joking. 由此可知,Tommy是担心学习不用功会被钉在十字架上。
40. 选B.Tommy把the man nailed to the plus sign误解为“学习不用功的结果”,从而一改自己原来不好学的不良习惯,很快就把数学成绩赶了上去。可见,误解有时也可以起到好的效果。
41-45答案:GEFAD
分析:这篇文章整体分为四个段落层次,每个段落均由几个语段构成相对独立地语义单位,各段都围绕“Taking good notes”这样一个中心话题,形成了文章的线性结构。
第一段讲述的是做笔记是好学生在多方面的一项省时技巧,第二段讲述的是不管何时、用何种方法做笔记,都要有选择性的做记录,第三段讲述的是做笔记的最佳方法,第四段讲述的是要记住自己的速记符号,这就形成了文章的层次结构,这对下一步的做题有了明确的整体方向。

第三部分:阅读理解(共两节,40分)
第一节 (共15小题;每小题2分,共30分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
I travel a lot in my work, and what I dislike about my job is eating alone. It always makes me feel lonely to see others laughing and talking. So, room service for several nights was a better choice for me.
After having room service three nights at a hotel in Houston, however, I needed to get out of my room. Although the restaurant opened at 6:30, I arrived at 6:25. The waiter at the front desk made a comment(评论) about my “being there really early”. I explained my dislike of eating alone in restaurants. He then seated me at a lovely table and asked me whether I would mind if he sat down with me for a while.
I was glad! He sat and talked with me about his career goals and the difficulty of being at work on nights, weekends and holidays. He said he hadn’t enough time to be with his family. After 15 minutes, he saw some customers at the front desk and excused himself. I noticed that before he went to the front desk, he stopped in the kitchen for a moment.
Then another waiter came out of the kitchen and had a wonderful chat with me. Before I left that night, some other waiters, even the cook, had come out of the kitchen and sat with me!
When I asked for my bill about one hour later, all the people who had sat down with me came over in a big group to my table, and presented me with a red rose. And I cried! What had begun as a lonely night ended as a beautiful experience.
56. The author asked for room service because _______.

B. he didn’t like to eat with other people around
C. he didn’t want to be recognized by the waiters
D. seeing people laughing and talking made him feel bad
57. How did the waiter feel when he saw the author come in at 6:25
A. Dissatisfied. B. Pleased. C. Surprised. D. Angry.
58. The author wants to tell us that ______.

Many animals recognize their food because they see it. So do humans. When you see an apple or a piece of chocolate you know that these are things you can eat. You can also use other senses when you choose your food. You may like it because it smells good or because it tastes good. You may dislike some types of food because they do not look, smell or taste very nice. Different animals use different senses to find and choose their food. A few animals depend on only one of their senses, while most animals use more than one sense.
Although there are many different types of food, some animals spend their lives eating only one type. The giant panda eats only one particular type of bamboo(竹子). Other animals eat only one type of food even when given the choice. A kind of white butterfly(蝴蝶)will stay on the leaves of a cabbage, even though there are plenty of other vegetables in the garden. However, most animals have a more varied diet. The bear eats fruits and fish. The fox eats small animals, birds and fruits. The diet of these animals will be different depending on the season.
Humans have a very varied diet. We often eat food because we like it and not because it is good for us. In countries such as France and Britain, people eat foods with too much sugar. This makes them overweight, which is bad for their health. Eating too much red meat and animal products, such as butter, can also be bad for the health. Choosing the right food, therefore, has become an area of study in modern life.
59. We can infer from the text that humans and animals _________.
A. depend on one sense in choosing food
B. are not satisfied with their food
C. choose food in similar ways
D. eat entirely different food
60. Which of the following eats only one type of food
A. The white butterfly. B. The small bird.
C. The bear. D. The fox.
61. Certain animals change their choice of food when ___________.
A. the season changes B. the food color changes
C. they move to different places D. they are attracted by different smells
62. We can learn from the last paragraph that __________.
A. food is chosen for a good reason
B. French and British food is good
C. some people have few choices of food
D. some people care little about healthy diet
C
As prices and building costs keep rising , the "do it yourself " (DIY) trend (趋势) in the U. S. continues to grow. "We needed furniture (家具) for our living room," says John Ross, "and we just didn't have enough to buy it. So we decided to try making a few tables and chairs." John got married six months ago, and like many young people these days, they are struggling to make a home at a time when the cost of living is very high. The Rosses took a 2-week course for $280 at a night school. Now they build all their furniture and make repairs around the house.
Jim Hatfield has three boys and his wife died. He has a full-time job at home as well as in a shoe making factory. Last month, he received a car repair bill for $420. "I was deeply upset about it. Now I've finished a car repair course, I should be able to fix the car by myself. "
John and Jim are unusual people. Most families in the country are doing everything they can to save money so they can fight the high cost of living. If you want to become a "do-it-yourselfer", you can go to DIY classes. And for those who don't have time to take a course, there are books that tell you how you can do things yourself.
63. We can learn from the text that many newly married people _________.
A. find it hard to pay for what they need
B. have to learn to make their own furniture
C. take DIY courses run by the government
D. seldom go to a department store to buy things
64. John and his wife went to evening classes to learn how to _________ .
A. run a DIY shop
B. make or repair things
C. save time and money
D. improve the quality of life
65. When the writer says that Jim has a full-time job at home, he means Jim _________.
A. makes shoes in his home
B. does extra work at night
C. does his own car and home repairs
D. keeps house and looks after his children
66. Jim Hatfield decided to become a do-it-yourselfer when ________
A. his car repairs costs too much
B. the car repair class was not helpful
C. he could not possibly do two jobs
D. he had to raise the children all by himself
D
Cheating can happen in a lot of different ways. When people cheat, it’s not fair to other people, like the kids who studied for the test or who were the true winners of a game.
Many people like the action of cheating. It makes difficult things seem easy, like getting all the right answers on the test. But it doesn’t solve the problem of not knowing the material and it won’t help in the next test --- unless the person cheats again.
Some people lose respect for cheaters and think nothing of them. The cheaters themselves may feel bad because they know they are not really earning that good grade. And, if they get caught cheating, they will be in trouble at school, and maybe at home, too.
Some kids cheat because they’re busy or lazy and they want to get good grades without spending time studying. Other kids might feel like they can’t pass the test without cheating. Even when there seems to be a “good reason” for cheating, cheating isn’t a good idea.
If you were sick or upset about something the night before and couldn’t study, it would be better to talk with the teacher about this. And if you don’t have enough time to study for a test because of swim practice, you need to talk with your parents about how to balance swimming and school.
A kid who thinks cheating is the only way to pass a test needs to talk with the teacher and his or her parents so they can find some solutions together. Talking about these problems and working them out will feel better than cheating.
67. The author thinks that when kids cheat in class, _______.
A. it is unfair to other people
B. it does harm to their heath
C. teachers should punish them
D. teachers shouldn’t stop them at once
68. The fourth paragraph mainly tells us______.
A. cheating isn’t a good idea
B. why kids cheat in the test
C. some kids can’t pass the test without cheating
D. some kids don’t spend the time studying
69. We can learn from the passage______.
A. cheaters are often thought highly of
B. people show no respect for those who cheat
C. parents whose kids cheat are often in trouble
D. kids cheat in the test because of swim practice
70. In the passage those cheaters are advised to______.
A. spend more time on school than on sports
B. find good solutions instead of cheating
C. try hard to be intelligent rather than lazy
D. ask their classmates for good methods of study
第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,共10分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Maybe you are an average student. You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessary so, however. 71 Here’s how:
1. Plan your time carefully. When you plan your week, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. then decide a good, regular time for studying. 72 A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you to realize what is happening to your time.
2. 73 Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios, or television! When you sit down to study, concentrate on the subject.
3. 74 Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teachers say. Really listening in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.
4. Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes. Review the important points that your teacher mentioned in class. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the next day, reading that material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.
5. Develop a good attitude about tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. They help you remember your new knowledge. 75
A. Learn from others.
B. Find a good place to study.
C. Make good use of your time in class.
D. There are other methods that might help you.
E. Don’t forget to set aside enough time for fun.
F. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to.
G. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t be overly worried.

One possible version:
Dear Peter,
How nice to hear from you again! I’m writing to tell you something about my life in senior high school.
At the beginning of this term, we received a 10-day military training. Though I felt very tired after a day’s training, I found it very helpful. I not only built up my body but also learned how to get along with my classmates. It is an enjoyable experience I’ll never forget.
Besides, we have nine subjects to learn and a lot of homework to do every day. At first I couldn’t stand it, but with the help of my teacher, I learn to do homework quickly and correctly. Our school is modern and beautiful, and my life is really rich and colorful. I enjoy it very much. I hope my dream of going to college will come true in three years.
I’m looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours,
Li Hua开封高中2014届第一次月考
