高考英语选择题模拟题及答案（8篇）

1.高考英语选择题模拟题及答案篇一

11.Not until he retired from teaching three years ago ________having a holiday abroad.

(2012・辽宁，32)

A.he had considered

B.had he considered

C.he considered

D.did he consider

答案：D

解析：句首是“Not until”，表达否定意义的连词短语位于句首时要用部分倒装，因此可以排除A、C两项。再分析句子结构可知，本空所在是主句部分，结合从句时态可知主句用一般过去时态。句意为：直到在三年前从教学上退休后他才考虑到国外度假。

12.Only after Mary read her composition the second time________the spelling mistake.

(2012・天津，6)

A.did she notice B.she noticed

C.does she notice D.she has noticed

答案：A

解析：句意为：只有当玛丽再次读她的作文之后她才注意到这个拼写错误。“only+状语/状语从句”位于句首时，主句须用倒装语序。after引导的是时间状语从句，接在only之后，位于句首，所以主句要用倒装，可排除B、D两项。而且根据语境知read和notice都是过去发生的动作，所以答案为A项。

13.The basketball coach，as well as his team，________ interviewed shortly after the match for their outstanding performance. (2012・陕西，12)

A.were B.was

C.is D.are

答案：B

解析：考查动词时态和主谓一致。as well as连接两个名词或代词作主语时，谓语动词的数由第一个名词或代词决定。本题中主语中心词是the basketball coach，是单数;根据shortly after the match可以推断出题干时态是一般过去时，故选B。

14.All the photographs in this book，________ stated otherwise，date from the 1950s.(2012・陕西，25)

A.unless B.until

C.once D.if

答案：A

解析：考查状语从句。句意为：除非被特别标明，这本书中所有的图片都可以追溯到20世纪50年代。所填词表条件，从句用了省略句，unless意为“除非，如果不”，故选A。

15.It was not until I came here ________I realized this place was famous for not only its beauty but also its weather.(2012・湖南，30)

A.who B.that

C.where D.before

答案：B

答案：D

解析 17.Never before________seen anybody who can play tennis as well as Robert.(2012・江西，32)

A.had she B.she had

C.has she D.she has

答案：C

解析：句意为：她从来都没有看到过任何人打网球和Robert一样好的。表示否定的副词never等放在句首，句子要用部分倒装结构，且本句时态为一般现在时。故选C项。

18.―Was it by cutting down staff ________ she saved the firm?

―No，it was by improving work efficiency.(2012・上海，37)

A.when B.what

C.how D.that

答案：D

19.This is not my story，nor ________ the whole story.My story plays out differently.(2012・四川，5)

A.is there B.there is

C.is it D.it is

答案：C

解析：考查倒装句。nor位于句首引起部分倒装，排除B、D两项;再根据句意“这并不是(关于)我的故事，它也不是故事的全部。我的故事的结局不同。”用代词it指代前面的“this story”。故选C。

20.It sounds like something is wrong with the car’s engine.________，we’d better take it to the garage immediately.(2011・江苏，33)

A.Otherwise B.If not

C.But for that D.If so

答案：D

解析：句意为：听起来好像汽车的发动机出了故障。如果这样的话，我们最好马上把它开到维修厂(修理一下)。otherwise否则，要不然;if not如果不是这样的话;but for that要不是那样。以上三项均不符合句意。if so如果这样的话，符合句意。if so相当于if something is wrong with the car’s engine。

阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的四个选项 (A、B、C和D) 中, 选出最佳选项。

Australia may have been defeated completely by Britain at the Olympics but its disappointed sports stars can take some comfort from the fact that their cities have been judged far better places to live.

Melbourne is the best city in the world to live in while Sydney, Adelaide and Perth also make the top 10and Brisbane comes in at number 20, according to the Economist Intelligence Unit global“liveability”study.

By contrast there is not a single British city in thetop 50.London, lost in the afterglow of the hugely suc-cessful Games that saw Team GB reach third place in the medal table, is judged to be just the 55th most desirable place to live in the world and has fallen in the rankings after last summer's riots (暴乱) .Manchester remains Britain's best city according to the study, which looks at crime levels, education, health care, culture and infrastructure (基础设施) , but it also dropped points to reach number 51 following the widespread looting (洗劫) and disorder that reached its shopping centres last August.

The EIU first began ranking cities to test whether or not companies should pay staff a hardship allowance if they make employees relocate to a different country.Its researchers look at how“tolerable”it is to live in a particular place given its crime levels, threat of conflict, quality of medical care, levels of censorship (审查) , temperature, schools and transport links.

In the latest rankings for 2012, Melbourne came top having overtaken Vancouver in Canada.It is famed for its sporting events, although is perhaps still best known in Britain as the setting for the soap opera Neighbours.

According to the EIU Melbourne came close to recording a“perfect score”with a liveability rating of97.5 percent, losing points only for climate, culture and petty (轻度) crime.Like most of the cities at the top of the league, it is much less crowded than London.

“Australian cities continue to thrive (繁荣) in terms of liveability:Not only do they benefit from the natural advantages of low population density (密度) , but they have continued to improve with some attractive infrastructure investments, ”said the study.

Auckland, New Zealand, also makes the premier league along with three Canadian cities—Vancouver, Toronto and Calgary.

56.How many Australian cities are there in the top 20 of the list of best cities for 2012?

A.One.B.Three.

C.Four.D.Five.

57.What is the best title of the passage?

A.Londoners are still lost in the success of the Olympic Games

B.London is not a good place to live in

C.Melbourne tops the list of best cities while London slips down

D.You're welcome to visit Australia

58.How is the passage developed?

A.By giving descriptions.

B.By following time order.

C.By analyzing causes.

D.By making comparisons.

The landmark clock tower containing Big Ben at Britain's Palace of Westminster is tilting (倾斜) , while media reports Monday said the mother of all parliaments (议会) was slipping into the River Thames, raising fears over its future.

Media reports said the House of Commons Commission would meet and discuss a surveyor's report which could recommend lawmakers move out for repairs costing up to one billion pounds, while the Daily Telegraph said another proposal might be to sell to Russian or Chinese developers for about 500 million pounds ($779.7 million) .

But a commission spokesman said there was no surveyor's report, and members were only meeting to discuss setting up a group to look at general long-term repair of the clock tower.

The 96-metre tall clock tower, which houses the bell originally nicknamed Big Ben, leans about 46 cm to the left of its peak.

A construction expert who worked on the leaning tower of Pisa in Italy and a multi-storey car park under the houses of parliament in central London, said there was nothing to worry about, and it would take 10, 000years to reach an angle of concern.

Professor John Burland of Imperial College London also said work on the underground Jubilee train line in the 1990s had not caused big movement, while a spokesman for the commission said the tilt could have existed since its construction in 1859.

The lean which is just visible to the naked eye had“been there for years, ”Burland said.

“When I first started work on the car park it was obvious that it was leaning, ”he told BBC radio.

“It was probably developed at a very early stage because there's no cracking in the cladding (保护层) and we think it probably leant while they were building it and before they put the cladding on.”

“That was a long time ago and buildings do lean a little bit.”

He also dismissed concern in the media that parliament was slipping into the Thames, while the commission's spokesman denied the walls around the palace were suffering from a particularly bad sinking problem causing Big Ben to lean.

“There's no such thing as an old building that isn't cracked, ”he said.

“In fact they're beneficial because the movements concentrated around the cracks and, if they didn't, there'd be cracking elsewhere.”

“So these have been there for years and they're certainly not caused by the Jubilee Line or the car park.”

59.What the media reports said.

A.agreed with what the commission spokesman said

B.agreed with what John Burland said

C.was true

D.might not be true

60.According to the media reports, the cost of the repair work of the clock tower might be.

A.1 billion pounds

B.500 million pounds

C.1 billion dollars

D.779.7 million dollars

61.Big Ben is the name of.

A.the clock tower

B.the bell of the clock tower

C.the mother of all parliaments

D.the House of Commons Commission

62.What does the underlined word“it”refer to in the eighth paragraph?

A.the clock tower

B.the BBC radio building

C.the car park

D.the Daily Telegraph building

Scientists are trying to find a way to protect Earth from the giant rocks which travel around the Milky Way.

Run out of Berlin with funds from the EU, the NEOShield (小行星防护盾) project, which will look for a way to protect Earth from the space rocks, is expected to take three years to complete.

Some of the ideas being considered at the moment include hitting asteroids (小行星) back with projectiles (导弹) or explosives or using gravity to change its course.

The project though is a little late as a piece of rock400 times the City of London is set to approach closer than a rock of its size has in a very long time.

The asteroid named“ (433) Eros”is set to pass by next week.

Despite its massive size, the space rock shouldn't be too great a threat (威胁) as it is on a round path far outside the moon's orbit.

However, with NASA estimating that there are almost one thousand asteroids over one kilometre in length and 19, 500 over 100 metres, scientists at the Institute of Planetary Research are trying to find a way to protect Earth.

With an investment of some 4 million by the European Commission and an extra 1.8 million coming from scientific institutions and partners, the German Aerospace Center aims to have a plan for a test mission within three years.

After that, if they can find the extra cash, the mission may be launched by 2020.The scientists will be looking at a host of (许多) ideas, many of which have already been proposed.

“Of course, a lot of things have already been proposed, ”Alan Harris, the study's leader, told Spiegel Online.“But, so far, most of them have come from a single institution, perhaps even from a single person.So it has been hard to perform them.”

“Looking into each idea will take place on paper and in lab experiments, since we don't have the money to do more than that, ”said Wolfram Lork, who works with a subsidiary (辅助机构) on the project.

One other idea would be“blast deflection (爆炸偏移) ”which would involve holding back the asteroid with directed explosive charges.Harris says this would be the“final, desperate approach.”

63.How many methods does the passage mention to protect Earth from the giant rocks?

A.Two.B.Three.

C.Four.D.Five.

64.The space rock mentioned in the fifth paragraph isn't too dangerous because it is.

A.small B.round

C.far D.old

65.The difficulty of finding the right way to protect Earth from the giant rocks will be lack of.

A.proposals B.money

C.scientists D.technology

66.What is the main idea of the passage?

A.Europe is developing an asteroid shield

B.Earth will be hit by asteroids

C.Space scientists are working hard

D.Earth is faced with a great threat

【主旨大意】一个沿街乞讨的乞丐遇到了财富女神, 财富女神答应给乞丐许多金币, 同时告诫乞丐, 金币掉到地上则化为灰尘, 贪婪的乞丐不听劝告, 导致金币撑破钱包化为灰尘, 乞丐又变得一无所有。故事告诫人们面对金钱不要贪得无厌。

36.D。考查动词辨析。根据第一段最后一句, 为什么那些人如此有钱却从不满足, 还想得到更多。可知乞丐对此百思不得其解, keep wondering意为“一直想知道”符合句意。

37.B。考查形容词辨析。还想得到的更多, 所以不满足, never satisfied意为“从不满足”符合句意。

38.C。考查动词辨析。由常识可知, 乞丐最重要的是要解决吃和穿的问题。eat对应下面提到的“穿”符合情景。

39.A。考查名词辨析。根据第一段, 乞丐在沿街乞讨, 所以财富女神降落到大街上才能看到乞丐。street符合文意。bridge“桥”, yard“院子”, forest“森林”, 均不符合文意。

40.C。考查动词辨析。根据下文, 打开你的钱包, 我要给你一些金子, 可知财富女神在帮助乞丐。所以选help。praise“表扬”, forgive“原谅”, comfort“安慰”, 均不符合情景。

41.D。考查名词辨析。根据第三段中All that falls into the wallet will be pure gold“所有进入你钱包的都是纯金”可知乞丐打开的是一个钱包, 所以选wallet。

42.D。考查名词辨析。只有在这种条件下, 我才会去做。All that falls into the wallet will be pure gold;but every piece falling upon the 43 shall become dust代指上文提到的这种条件。condition意为“条件, 状况”符合句意。

43.C。考查名词辨析。语境为:每一枚金币掉到地上就会变成尘土, ground“地面”符合情景。

44.A。考查动词短语辨析。根据下文财富女神告诫乞丐不要装得太重, 提醒乞丐注意。所以选look out。look after“照顾”, look up“仰视, 向上看”, look down“俯视”, 都不符合题意。

45.C。考查形容词辨析。结合上题, 财富女神提醒乞丐当心, 下文又提醒乞丐so don't load it too heavily, 最后一段中告诉我们, 钱包坏了, 由此可以看出, 这是一个旧钱包, 所以选worn“用旧的”。

46.B。考查动词辨析, could hardly wait to do意为“迫不及待地干某事”。句意:激动的乞丐早已迫不及待地想拿到金子。

47.A。考查名词。根据倒数第三段中提到golden stream可知答案。

48.C。考查动词辨析。通过乞丐告诉财富女神钱包现在还很结实, 可知不要为钱包担心。never fear“不要害怕”。

49.D。考查动词。句意为:钱包装了如此多的金币, 乞丐的手开始发抖。shake“发抖”符合情景。spread“伸展”, close“关闭”, loose“放松”, 均不符合情景。

50.A。考查动词。乞丐希望金子源源不断地流出, 四个选项中只有pour“流出”能形象地描绘出乞丐的贪婪。

51.B。考查动词辨析。对应前文的Just a little more可知, 这里表达的意思是:贪婪的乞丐想再往钱包中多装一两把金子。add符合句意。take“拿, 携带”, lend“借出”, send“送给”, 均不符合情景。最后一段的第一句话也有原词复现:One more piece was added and the wallet split。

52.B。考查动词辨析。钱包已经装满了, 而且是一个旧钱包, 继续装可能会裂开。所以选burst“破裂”。最后一句话中的split为同义词复现。

53.D。考查动词辨析。贪婪的乞丐认为钱包还能多装一点。hold意为“保存”符合语境。

54.C。考查名词辨析。treasure“财宝”这里代指金币。钱包破裂后金币自然会掉到地上。present“礼物”, food“食物”, metal“金属”, 均不符合句意。

55.A。考查不定代词辨析。句意:衣衫褴褛的乞丐除了破裂的钱包外一无所有。nothing什么也没有。

第三部分:阅读理解

第一节

【主旨大意】2012年最宜居城市评选揭晓, 墨尔本当选最宜居城市, 伦敦跌出50强。

56.D。细节判断题。原文第二节显示在2012年最宜居城市排名前二十名的城市中澳大利亚有墨尔本、悉尼、阿德莱德、珀斯和布里斯本五个城市。

57.C。标题判断题。认真阅读分析原文不难发现其主要介绍了在2012年世界最宜居城市排名结果中澳大利亚城市排名好, 而英国城市排名差的背景信息, 因此以Melbourne tops the list of best cities while London slips down为题准确贴切。

58.D。篇章结构判断题。认真阅读分析原文可以发现, 原文以对比的手段介绍澳大利亚和英国在2012年最宜居城市排名中好差不同的背景信息, 由此可以推出比较是全文情节推进的手段。

【主旨大意】有报告说伦敦大本钟加速倾斜, 甚至有可能倒塌。不过专家表示, 大本钟并无实际危险。

59.D。推理判断题。由原文第二节Media reports said the House of Commons Commission would meet and discuss a surveyor's report which could recommend lawmakers move out for repairs costing up to one billion pounds、第三节和第五节there was nothing to worry about, and it would take 10, 000 years to reach an angle of concern.可以推出媒体的报道可能失实。

第二节书面表达

One possible version:

Hard life is good for children

Nowadays, quite a lot of parents are in a dilemma.On one hand, they want to provide comfortable living and learning conditions for their children.On the other hand, what worries them is that too cosy conditions might lead to spoiled children without good qualities like perseverance, determination, and so on.

I firmly believe that hard life is good for children.Children from poor families are usually independent and have strong will.Hard life makes them understand that their future lies in their own hands.They are grateful to whatever given to them by their parents.They seldom complain because they know complaints can only result in disappointment.Therefore, most of them are determined to change their present situation through hard work.

With the fast development of China's economy, people's living standards are greatly improved.However, I strongly recommend that parents should create chances for children to experience hard life, thus letting them realize the importance of valuing the present life and make good use of every minute to be prepared for the future.

Passage Two Deep inside a mountain near Sweetwater in East.Tennessee is a body of water known as the Lost Sea.It is listed by the Guinness Book of Would Records as the world’s largest underground lake.The Lost Sea is part of an extensive and historic cave system called Craighead Caverns.The caverns have been known and used since the days of the Cherokee Indian nation.The cave expands into a series of huge rooms from a small opening on the side of the mountain.Approximately one mile from the entrance, in a room called “The Council Room,” many Indian artisfacts have been found.Some of the items discovered include pottery, arrowheads, weapons, and jewelry.For many years there were persistent rumors of a large underground lake somewhere in a cave, but it was not discovered until 1905.In that year, a thirteen-year-old boy named Ben Sands crawled through a small opening three hundred feet underground.He found himself in a large cave half filled with water.Today tourists visit the Lost Sea and ride far out onto it in glass-bottomed boats powered by electric motors.More than thirteen acres of water have been mapped out so far and still no end to the lake has been found.Even though teams of divers have tried to explore the Lost Sea, the full extent of it is still unknown.66.The Lost Sea is unique because it is ________.part of a historical cave system the biggest underground lake in the world listed in the Guinness Book of World Records the largest body of water in Tennessee 67.The Craighead Caverns have been known ________.A.through history B.since the time of the Indian nations C.since 1905 D.since divers explored them 68.Who located the Lost Sea in recent times?

Passage Three Generations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is one life’s essentials.Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have all been told, and told again, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip.But for many people the thought of food first thing in the morning is by no means a pleasure.So despite all the efforts, they still take no breakfast.Between 1977 and 1983, the latest year for which figures are available, the number of people who didn’t have breakfast, increased by 33 percent.For those who feel pain of guilt about not eating breakfast, however, there is some good news.Several studies in the last few years indicate that, for adults especially, there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast.“Going without breakfast does not affect performance,” said Arrold E.Bender, former professor of the nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London, “nor does giving people breakfast improve performance.”

Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better performance is surprisingly inadequate, and most of the recent work involves children, not adults, “The literature”, says one researcher, Dr.Erresto at the University of Texas, “is poor”.71.The latest year for which figures could be obtained is _______.A.the year the author wrote the article B.1977 C.any year between 1997 and 1983 D.1983 72.For those who do not take breakfast, the good news is that _______.several studies have been done in the past few years the omission of breakfast does no harm to one’s health adults have especially made studies in this field eating little in the morning is good for health 73.“…nor does giving people breakfast improve performance” means ______.anyone without breakfast does improve his performance not giving people breakfast improve performance having breakfast does not improve performance, either people having breakfast do improve their performance 74.The word “literature” in the last sentence refers to _______.A.stories, poems, plays, etc.B.written works on a particular subject C.any printed material D.the modern literature of America 75.What is implied but NOT stated by the author is that _______.breakfast does not affect performance Dr.Erresto is engaged in research work at an institution of higher learning not eating breakfast might affect the health of children Professor Bender once taught college courses in nutrition in London

Passage Four About 35% of all high school graduates in America continue their education in an institution of higher learning.The word college is used to refer to either a college or a university.These institutions offer four-year programs that lead to a Bachelor of Arts(B.A.)or Bachelor Science(B.S.)degree.Some students attend a junior college(providing only a two-year program)for one to two years before entering a four-year college as a sophomore(二年级生)or junior(三年级生).It is generally easier to be accepted at a state university than at a private one.Most private schools require strict entrance examinations and a high grade point average(GPA), as well as specific college prep classes in high school.Private schools cost considerably more than state colleges and famous private schools are very expensive.Poorer students can sometimes attend, however, by earning scholarships.Some college graduates go on to earn advanced masters or doctoral degrees in grad(graduate)school.Occupations in certain fields such as law or medicine require such advanced studies.Since college costs are very high, most students work at part-time jobs.Some have full-time jobs and go to school part-time.Often some will take five or more years to complete a four-year program because of money / job demands on their time.While the college and work demands take up the great part of a student’s time, most still enjoy social activities.Sports, dances, clubs, movies, and plays are all very popular.However, gathering together for long, philosophical talks at a favorite meeting place on or near the university is probably the most popular activity.76.College education is _______ in America.A.quite common B.very rare C.something difficult D.almost impossible 77.Which of the following is NOT required for entering most private schools.A.entrance examinations B.taking part in many activities C.GPA D.college prep classes 78.How can poor students attend private schools? A.Only by working at part-time jobs.B.Only by working at full-time jobs.C.Only by earning scholarships.D.All of above.79.The American college students like to _______ most of all.A.discuss problems on philosophy B.play balls C.earn enough money D.go to the cinemas or theatres 80.The best title for this passage is _______.A.Part-time jobs B.American college C.Popular activity D.A new system

Investing In the Graphite ( 化石墨) Revolution

December 21st,2014

Graphene( 石墨烯) is the future. Plain and simple.

It's 200 times stronger than steel, thinner than a sheet of paper,and more conductive than copper.

And that's not all

Researchers all over the world are using it for critical advances in a variety of industries. Graphene makes:

Solar cells — 50x ~ 100x more efficient

Semiconductors — 50x ~ 100x faster

Aircraft — 70% lighter

We're talking about batteries that charge 10x faster and store 10x more power

Phones and computer displays that bend and fold

It's so vital to our future that it's been named a “supply critical mineral”and a “strategic min毄eral”by the United States,Japan and the European Union.

Yet only a few companies around the world have access to mineral resource that is required to make graphene. And 70% of supply is controlled by China.

So the setup is perfect for any non-Chinese supply to become an extremely profitable investment,just like rare earths a few years ago.

A new report from the Outsider Club fully outlines the situation:

What graphene is used for

And why now is the perfect time to invest in this world-changing discovery.

To get this new report, simply drop your name in the box below. And in a few moments, you'll be fully informed on the ins and outs of graphene. All I ask in return is for you to sign up to receive our financial and economic news e-letter, Outsider Club.

In each issue,we'll bring you the financial news from the “Outsider's ” perspective. It will show you how to plan your own finances,and manage your own investments. Become a reader of Outsider Club today.

So what are you waiting for?

21. What do you know about graphene?

A. It can conduct electricity very well.

B. It is much stronger than paper.

C. It is much heavier than steel.

D. It is very easy to obtain now.

22. According to the passage,a plane made of graphene can____.

A. move much faster

B. work more efficiently

C. save more energy

Christian Haettich has one arm and one leg. Over 22 days this summer at the 2014 Haute Route he cycled across the Dolomites,the Alps and the Pyrenees to become one of only a dozen finishers of a tough three-week cycling event.

Haettich was born and brought up in rural Alsace,in north-east France. He led a normal life until a traffic accident in December 1976 when he was 15 years old. He was out riding a bike when he was hit by a car. As a result,he lost his left leg and his left arm.

“Many things changed for me. I had to learn how to live again and deal with being stared at. It's tough being disabled at this age,and I was often rejected,”he says.

Although he had long been a fan of professional cycling,it wasn't until his mid-30s that he thought of taking up the sport himself. A chance sighting of a man with one leg riding up a mountain encouraged him to try cycling himself.

People use arms and legs instinctively as counterbalances and supports to keep them upright. “I had no balance and fell off many times at first. My wife helped me a lot until the day I managed to ride without falling off,”he says.

Haettich particularly likes those that involve riding in the mountains. On a long mountain pass,you can't stop pedalling( 蹬车) to relax. For an able-bodied rider the work is shared more or less equally between both legs. For Haettich,his one leg has to do the work of two. He remembers how painful it was in the early days. “Pedalling uphill with one leg is hard,it's just push and pull,if I forget one,I fall. But in the end ,my struggle paid off . ”

For many riders,cycling is no more than a hobby. For Haettich it's much more. “Cycling brings me happiness. Cycling takes away my disability,and it helps me move forward. The bike is a source of inspiration,”he said.

24. How many cyclists finished the threeweek cycling event at the 2014 Haute Route?

A. 6 cyclists.

B. 12 cyclists.

C. 20 cyclists.

D. 24 cyclists.

25. What do you learn about Christian Haettich after he was disabled?

A. He led a very normal life.

B. He was discriminated against.

C. He was taken good care of.

D. He was inspired by his peers.

26. What inspired him to take up cycling?

A. Seeing a disabled man riding up a mountain.

B. Watching a cycling event at the 2010 Haute Route.

C. Hearing of a touching story about his sport hero.

D. Making friends with a world-famous cyclist.

27. At the beginning it was very difficult for Christian Haettich to____.

A. climb the mountains

B. keep his pace

C. keep his balance

D. control his fear

Evidence has long suggested that certain animals can possess unusual abilities. Now science is proving many of these stories to be correct. Close observation of such animals could help people to plan well in advance of coming problems.

Henry Streby of the University of California discovered that golden-winged warblers take off from their expected locations more than 24 hours before storms hit. In this case,the storm in question produced tornadoes that killed at least 35 people. “The most curious finding is that the warblers flew away long before the storm arrived,”said Streby. “At the same time the weatherman was telling us this storm headed in our direction. The birds were apparently already packing their bags and evacuating ( 撤离 ) the area. ”

Dogs can sniff out prostate cancer with 98 percent accuracy, found a study earlier this year.

Dogs have about 200 millionolfactorycells in their noses,versus only 5 million in the human nose. Their keen sense of smell helps to explain the cancer-detecting feat. Yet another study on dogs found that they can smell—through a person's breath or sweat — whether or not a diabetic ( 糖尿病 )person has high or low blood sugar.

After the 2011 magnitude 9 earthquake in Japan,Hiroyuki Yamauchi of National Tsing Hua University conducted a survey on how cats reacted ahead of the quake. The survey found that six or more days before the devastating earthquake, some cats engaged in unusual behaviors and became more stressed out. Felines began “trembling, being restless and escaping ”. The researchers believe that cats may sense quakes ahead of time because they have a wider range of hearing than humans.

Have you ever noticed that bees are nowhere in sight before it rains? They sense moisture changes in the atmosphere,causing them to take shelter in their hives before downpours begin.

28. We can infer that the golden-winged warbler is a kind of____.

A. mammal

B. bird

C. sea creature

D. reptile

29. The underlined word “olfactory ”means____ .

A. related to smell

B. linked to hearing

C. connected with sight

D. associated with taste

30. Just before the rain, bees tend to be.

A. busy

B. restless

D. noisy

D. invisible

31. Which of the following is the best title?

A. Some animals preventing major natural disasters.

B. Some animals predicting devastating natural disasters.

C. Some animals predicting disasters and detecting disease.

D. Some animals helping people to detect human disease.

Denmark is a small nation of about 5. 5 million people. The United States is a melting pot of more than 315 million people. There is no doubt that Denmark and the United States are very different countries. Nonetheless,are there lessons that we can learn from Denmark?

Today in the United States there is a massive amount of economic anxiety. Unemployment is too high and wages and income are too low. The gap between the very rich and everyone else is growing wider. However, in Denmark, social policies ensure that almost no one falls into economic despair. While it is difficult to become very rich in Denmark,no one is allowed to be poor.

While millions of Americans are struggling to find affordable health care,health care in Denmark is universal and free of charge. Everybody is covered. The Danish health care system is popular,with patient satisfaction much higher than in our country.

Danes understand that the first few years of a person's life are the most important in terms of intellectual and emotional development. In order to give strong support to expecting parents,mothers get four weeks of paid leave before giving birth. They get another 14 weeks of paid leave afterward. In the U. S. A,working mothers enjoy no paid leave before and after giving birth and young working families search desperately for affordable child care.

At a time when college education in the United States is increasingly unaffordable and the average college graduate leaves school more than $ 25,000 in debt,virtually all higher education in Denmark is free.

In Denmark, adequate leisure and family time are considered an important part of having a good life. Every worker in Denmark is entitled to five weeks of paid vacation plus 11 paid holidays. And the United States is the only major country that does not guarantee its workers paid vacation time.

Recently the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development ( OECD ) has found that the Danish people rank among the happiest in the world among some 40 countries. However, America did not crack the top 10.

The United States,in size,culture,and the diversity of our population, is a very different country from Denmark. Can we,however,learn some important lessons from them? You bet we can.

32. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?

A. How can the United States catch up with Denmark?

B. What lessons can the United States learn from Denmark?

C. Where does the United States differ from Denmark?

D. How did the United States become a melting pot?

33. Which of the following is NOT true of the United States ?

A. Free health care.

B. High unemployment.

C. Low wages and income.

D. Lower patient satisfaction.

34. Before and after giving birth,a mother in Denmark can get___.

A. 10 weeks of unpaid leave.

B. 10 weeks of paid leave.

C. 18 weeks of unpaid leave.

D. 18 weeks of paid leave.

35. From the passage,we can infer that___-.

A. The gap between the rich and the poor is growing wider in Denmark

B. There are many very wealthy people living in Denmark

C. Danes spend much time in staying with their family members

D. college education in Denmark is becoming more expensive

While high school dropout percentages in the U. S. are much lower today than they were a few decades ago,there is still a lot of room for improvement.

One factor when it comes to the dropout rate is the economic background. It is reported that students from low-income families are 2. 4 times more likely to drop out than middle-income kids. 36Students with physical disabilities drop out at a rate of36percent. Some behaviors that are often characteristic in dropouts include being retained( 留级) from advancing a grade level with peers,relocating during the high school years and being bullied by peers at the school.

The U. S. Census Bureau estimates that dropouts bring in just $ 20,241 annually,which is over $ 36,000 less than a person holding a bachelor's degree.37And the unemployment rate for dropouts is generally 4 percentage points higher than the national average.38.

Dropping out of high school hurts more than the individual.39It's estimated that half of all Americans on public assistance are dropouts. A study has found that high school dropouts cost taxpayers $ 292,000 over the course of their lives. It's not just about the money though.40As a society,we are not just paying into public assistance programs for dropouts,but we are paying to protect ourselves against them.

If we invested that money,or even half of it, into efforts to enhance the learning experience and programs to prevent dropping out,it would benefit the individual and the society as a whole.

A. In the end,the lifetime earnings of high school dropouts are $ 260,000 less than peers who earn a diploma

B. Over 80 percent of the prisoners are high school dropout.

C. Household income is not the only factor that affects dropouts,though.

D. This has become an issue that truly impacts every member of the community.

E. It also has a bad effect on the society.

F. We still have a long way to go.

G. The poverty rate for dropouts is over twice as high as college graduates.

第二节书面表达

One possible version:

Boys and girls,

I come from the countryside and my family lives in a beautiful village. So I suggest that we go to my village to help farmers with their harvest.

In my opinion,the activity will benefit us a lot. First,we can experience the rural life by doing farming work. Second, by working in the fields we can learn that it is no easy job to produce rice,which will help us to cherish food. Last but not the least,we can appreciate the beautiful natural scenery and enjoy a peaceful and quiet rural life,free from the noisy and busy city life.
