第一部分阅读理解（共20小题，每小题1.5分，满分30分）

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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

A

It seems that some people go out of their way to get into trouble. That’s more or less what happened the night that Nashville Police Officer Floyd Hyde was on duty.

“I was on the way to a personal-injury accident in West Nashville. As I got onto Highway 40, blue lights and sirens（警笛）going, I fell in behind a gold Pontiac Firebird that suddenly seemed to take off quickly down the highway. The driver somehow panicked at the sight of me. He was going more than a hundred miles an hour and began passing cars on the shoulder.”

But Hyde couldn’t go after him. Taking care of injured people is always more important than worrying about speeders, so the officer had to stay on his way to the accident. But he did try to keep the Firebird in sight as he drove, hoping another nearby unit would be able to step in and stop the speeding car. As it turned out, keeping the Firebird in sight was not that difficult. Every turn the Pontiac made was the very turn the officer needed to get to the accident scene.

Hyde followed the Pontiac all the way to his destination（目的地）. At that point he found another unit had already arrived at the accident scene. His help wasn’t needed. Now he was free to try to stop the driver of the Firebird, who by this time had developed something new to panic about.

资源库 “Just about that time,” Hyde says, “I saw fire coming out from under that car, with blue smoke and oil going everywhere. He’d blown his engine. Now he had to stop.” “After I arrested him, I asked him why he was running. He told me he didn’t have a driver’s license.”

That accident cost the driver of the Firebird plenty – a thousand dollars for the new engine – not to mention the charges for driving without a license, attempting to run away, and dangerous driving.

1. The meaning of “panicked” in Paragraph 2 is related to _____.
   1. shameB. hateC. fearD. anger
2. Why did the driver of the Firebird suddenly speed down the highway?
   1. Because he was racing with another driver on the road.
   2. Because he realized he had to hurry to the accident scene.
   3. Because he wanted to overtake other cars on the shoulder.
   4. Because he thought the police officer wanted to stop him.
3. Which of the following statements is true?
   1. The Pontiac reached its destination at the accident scene.
   2. Someone else was taking care of the injured person.
   3. Hyde knew where he was going by following the right car.
   4. The policeman was running after a speeder on Highway 40.
4. What is probably the best title for the article?
   1. Going My WayB. Losing His Way
      C. Fun All the WayD. Help on the Way
      B
      The scene in the Hollywood movie The Day After Tomorrow, where global warning could soon turn the global climate into a new ice age. May never occur, according to new research.
      The next ice age could be 15,000 years away, say European scientists who last month announced a continuous record of 740,000 years of climate data obtained from the Antarctic ice.
      Scientists from 10 nations have now almost completely drilled through a 3,000-meter depth of ice high in the Antarctic mainland. They figure out that the area where summer temperatures can fall to－40℃, has at least 900,000 years of snowfalls, kept as neatly as the growth rings of a tree. And the ice and air caught in each layer have begun to answer questions about the climates in the past.
      The results show that there have been eight ice ages in the past 740,000 years and eight warmer periods. And by comparing the pattern of global conditions today with those of the past, the researchers reported in Nature that the present warm period could last another 15,000 years.
      Research suggests that there is a very close connection between greenhouse gas levels and global average temperatures. It also shows that carbon dioxide levels are the highest for at least 440,000 years.
      “If people say to you: the greenhouse effect is a good thing because we would go into an ice age otherwise , our data say no , a new ice age is not hanging over our heads,” said Erie Wolff from the British Antarctic Survey. “Now we have eight examples of how the climate goes in and out of ice ages…and you can learn what the rules are that go into the climate models that tell us about the future.”
      Scientists found that whenever temperatures rose in the frozen record, so did carbon dioxide level.” In 440,000 years we have never seen greenhouse gas get as thick as it is today,” said Dr Wolff.
5. In drilling through the ice in Antarctica, scientists have found tha
   1. the lowest temperature there is -40℃B. snowfalls are kept in certain patterns
      C. the ice has existed for 15,000 yearsD. the depth of ice is 3,000 meters
6. The information of the global climate conditions in the past can be obtained through
   A. separating carbon dioxide from the air
   B. examining the growth rings of trees
   C. comparing temperatures in different areas
   D. studying the ice and air caught in each layer
7. We can infer from Eric Wolff’s words that
   1. there is something wrong with the data
      B. greenhouse effect is always a bad thing
      C. a new ice age will not come in the near future
      D. greenhouse gas will get thick in the future
8. What would be the best title for the passage ?
   1. Research over the Antarctic area.
      B. Hollywood movies and the global climate.
      C. Report on the eight ice ages in the past.
      D. Warm period to last about 15,000 years.
      C
      It’s not easy being a teenager—nor is it easy being the parent of a teenager. You can make your child feel angry, hurt, or misunderstood by what you say without realizing it yourself. It is important to give your child the space he needs to grow while gently letting him know that you you’ll still be there for him when he needs you.
      Expect a lot from your child, just not everything. Except for health and safety problems, such as drug use or careless driving; consider everything else open to discussion. If your child is unwilling to discuss something, don’t insist he tell you what’s on his mind. The more you insist, the more likely that he’ll clam up. Instead, let him attempt to solve（解决）things by himself. At the same time, remind him that you’re always there for him should he seek advice or help. Show respect for your teenager’s privacy（隐私）. Never read him his mail or listen in on personal conversions.
      Teach your teenager that the family phone is for the whole family. If your child talks on the family’s telephone for too long, tell him he can talk for 15 minutes, but then he must stay off the phone for at least an equal period of time. This not only frees up the line so that other family members can make and receive calls, but teaches your teenager moderation（节制）. Or if you are open to the idea, allow your teenager his own phone that he pays for with his own pocket money or a part –time job.
9. The main purpose of the text is to tell parents      .
   1. how to get along with a teenager
   2. how to respect a teenager
   3. how to help a tenager grow upD. how to understand a teenager
10. What does the phrase “clam up” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
    1. become excited                                       B. show respect
       C.  seek help                                   D. refuse to talk 
11. The last paragraph is about how to teach a teenager
    A. to use the phone in a sensible way
    B. to pay for his own telephone
    C. to share the phone quickly
    D. to answer the phone quickly
12. What should parents do in raising a teenager according to the text?
    1. nor allow him to learn driving or take drugs
    2. give him advice only when necessary
    3. let him have his own telephone
    4. not talk about personal things with him 
       D
       I know what you’re thinking: pizza? For breakfast? But the truth is that you can have last night’s leftovers in the a. m. if you want to.
       I know lots of women who skip breakfast（不吃早餐）, and they have a ton of different excuses for doing it. Some say they don’t have time. Others think they’re “saving” calories. still others just don’t like breakfast food.
       But the bottom line is that eating in the morning is very important when you’re trying to lose weight. “Eating just about anything from 300 to 400 calories would be better than nothing at all,” says Katherine Brooking, R, D, who developed the super-easy eating plan for this year’s “SELF CHALLENGE”. And even pizza can be healthy if it’s loaded with vegetables, and you stick to one small piece.
       Breakfast is one meal I never miss, and the same goes for most weight loss success stories. Research shows that eating breakfast keeps you from overeating later in the day. Researchers at the University of Southem California found that breakfast skippers have a bigger chance of gaining weight than those who regularly have a morning meal. So eat something in the morning, anything. I know plenty of friends who end up having no breakfast altogether, and have just coffee or orange juice. I say, try heating up last night’s leftovers-it may sound crazy, but if it works for you, do it! I find if I tell myself, “You can always eat it tomorrow.” I put away the leftovers instead of eating more that night. Try it…you may save yourself some pre-bedtime calories. And watch your body gain the fat-burning effects.
13. What can we infer from the text?
    1. Working women usually have breakfast in a hurry.
       B. There are some easy ways of cooking a meal.
       C. Many people have wrong ideas about breakfast.
       D. Eating vegetables helps save energy.
14. According to the last paragraph, it is important to____________.
    1. eat something for breakfast
       B. be careful about what you eat
       C. heat up food before eating it
       D. eat calorie-controlled food
15. The text is written mainly for those_____________.
    1. who go to work early

B. who want to lose weight

C. who stay up late

D. who eat before sleep

第二节 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Top six ways to teach values to your child

In a consumer-driven society that broadcasts values that don’t reflect what you believe, how can parents teach values to their kids? Here are ideas to help you:

Tell them your life stories and teach them through your stories. 16. Weave some moral dilemmas and you’ll get great opportunities to teach values to them.

Live your own life according to your values – walk and talk（言行一致）. Kids learn by imitating, especially at a young age. Don’t give them confusing signals; follow your own values every moment.

Pay attention to who else might be teaching values to your kids. Get to know your kids’ teachers, coaches, relatives, etc. 17. Know their values and beliefs as well.

Read them fairy tales when they’re younger. Fairy tales capture the imagination of kids and can easily lead to a discussion of values. 18.

Involve your kids in art, activities, or helping others while limiting TV and video games. Kids learn values when they experience them. Allow them to experience helping others and involve them in activities that will expand their creativity. 19. This lets your kids know that it’s important and that it’s not just something you talk about when they do something wrong.

Have high expectations for your kids’ value system. 20. Their value system will often reflect yours if the expectations are high.

1. Let him know that he’s not wrong.
2. Kids love to hear stories about your childhood.
3. Have frequent conversations about values in your household.
4. Kids will tend to rise to the level of expectation you have for them.
5. Anyone who spends time with your kids may be influencing them.
6. Talk to them when everyone’s relaxed, and do it in a conversational manner.
7. Kids will learn the most important values when they’re excited about the topic.

Dear Mark,

I’m very glad you are so interested in our school.

Recently our school is launching an activity to call for thrift and go against wasting. Every student is required to save paper, water, electricity and food. All waste paper must be collected and sold to help the poor students. Water must be made full use of and now you cannot find any tap that is left running without students around. And each student should get into a great habit of turning off the light on time. What’s more, all of us are called on not to use our pocket money to buy some things unnecessary and some students even use their saved money to help the students in need.

Yours,

Li Hua
