Part Ⅲ Reading Comprehension(30 marks)

Directions: Read the three passages. Each passage is followed by five questions or unfinished statements. For each of them are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.

Tanzania Tarangire is a national Park which lies in Tanzania. The park itself covers an area of around 2,850 square kilometers, making it the sixth largest park of its kind in the country. I recently visited Tarangire to see what it was like….

One of the first sightings upon entering the park which I found was a huge herd(群)of elephants. Our guide told us that Tagrangire was probably the best place in Tanzania to find large herds of elephants, and that their population in the park was around 2,500. We continued to watch the elephants as they stood under trees and scratched themselves against the trees to hit the spot of an itch(痒处).

To the right of the elephant herd, we noticed a big tree! Our guide informed us that this was a Baobab tree and that they could live for hundreds of years. Compared with this tree, the elephant just looked like dwarfs(侏儒)! We were informed that Tarangire was one of the best National Parks in Africa to see so many Baobab trees.

As we continued our drive through the park, we finally reached a watering hole. Our guide warned us that there were lions all around us. It took us all a while to find them, but there they were! Most of them are resting in the shade under brushes, but there was one that was drinking from the watering hole directly in front of us. We then noticed just to our right, there were a couple of fresh zebra corpses(尸体)— it seemed as if the lions which were resting had killed them! We were unlucky not to have seen the actual kill, as our guide had mentioned that the zebra corpses were fresh and the kill had occurred within the last hour.

Our final big sighting was one that none of us were expecting to see, even our guide! We pulled over to where there was a large gathering of cars, with a sleeping leopard(美洲豹)there! We took photos happily and excitedly and observed its surprising body before returning to our hotel as it was getting late.

So, I hope you enjoyed my description of Tarangire, and that I have inspired you to add this amazing park to your very own Tanzania travel route.

Some students get so nervous before an exam that they do poorly even if they know the material. Sian Beilock, a psychology professor at the University of Chicago, has studied these highly anxious exam-takers.

“They start worrying about the results. They might even start worrying about whether this exam is going to prevent them from getting into the college they want. And when we worry, it actually uses up attention and memory resources that you could otherwise be using to focus on the exam,” says Sian Beilock.

The researchers tested the idea on a group of 20 anxious college students. They gave them two short math exams. After the first one, they asked the students to either sit quietly or write about their feelings about the coming second exam.

The researchers added to the pressure. They told the students that those who did well on the second exam would get money. They also told them that their performance would affect other students as part of a team effort.

Professor Beilock says those who sat quietly scored an average of 20% worse on the second exam. But the students who had written about their fears improved their performance by an average of 5%.

Next, the researchers used younger students in a biology class. They told them before final exams either to write about their feelings or to think about things unrelated to the exam.

Professor Beilock says highly anxious students who wrote about their feelings got an average grade of B+, compared with a B-for those who did not.

But what can they do if students do not have a chance to write about their fears immediately before an exam or presentation? Professor Beilock says students can try it themselves at home or in the library and they can still improve their performance.

61. In which paragraph does the author introduce the background(背景) of his study?

A. In the first paragraph. B. In the second paragraph.

C. In the third paragraph D. In the last paragraph.

62. According to Sian Beilock, if you want to succeed in an exam you should ______.

A. be as serious as you can about the exam. B. focus your attention on the exam.

C. set clear study goals and keep them D. make a careful preparation for the exam

63. We can infer from the study that students who sit quietly before the exam ______.

A. are more likely to get better exam results.

B. have a positive attitude towards exam results.

C. worry more about the exam in their mind.

D. have a strong will to be successful in the exam.

64. The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refers to “______”.

A. looking for a chance B. preparing for the exam

C. writing about the feelings D. taking the exam

65. If a student writes about his feelings before an exam, he ______.

A. will improve his exam result B. can keep a good memory of the exam

C. will get support from his teachers D. will forget what he has prepared for the exam

66. Why does the author mention Bell and Edison at the beginning of the text?

A. To remember both of them. B. To prove their wisdom.

Part IV Writing (35 marks)

Section A (10 marks)

Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage. Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.

CPR is cardiopulmonary resuscitation (心肺复苏). It forces air into the lungs and pumps(用泵抽) blood and oxygen to the brain in order to increase the chances that a person whose heart stops will survive. It increases the chances that he or she will suffer little or no brain damage.

The American Heart Association suggests two ways to perform CPR. One combines the use of hands to pump the victim’s chest(胸腔)with rescue breathing. The other method is called “Hands-Only CPR”, which is for people who are unwilling or unable to perform rescue breathing. Some people fear infection(感染). Others say they are afraid of making the patient worse.

But the American Heart Association strongly asks people in contact with a victim(受害者) to take action and tells how to take it. It says you can recognize a person needing CPR. He or she is unconscious(无意识) -- unable to communicate or react to surroundings or speech. His or her skin has lost color. The person is not breathing. If such conditions describe the situation, chances are the heart has stopped beating.

You should act by calling for help, or sending someone else. Even if you cannot do mouth-to-mouth rescue breathing, you can perform Hands-Only CPR. You can do chest compressions(压迫) that help to keep blood flowing to the brain and the heart. To perform the compressions, place one hand over the other and press firmly on the center of the victim’s chest. Push down about five centimeters. Aim for one hundred compressions each minute.

Doctor Sayre suggests that medical workers do both the breathing method and chest compressions as usual. He says some victims, including babies, need the mouth-to-mouth breathing with the compressions. Still, the doctor says it is better to do just chest compressions than to do nothing.

Section B(10 marks)

Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage and required words limit.

March 22nd every year has been the World Water Day since 1993. Everyone knows that over 70% of our planet is covered with water, but do you know that only 3% of the water is fresh and less than 1% of this fresh water is available for human use?

Water shortage

The World Bank reports that 80 countries now have water shortages, while 40% of the more than 2 billion people, have no access to clean water. Fresh water is such a life-or-death issue(问题) in many parts of the world that every eight seconds a child dies from drinking dirty water.

How to save water

Turn off the tap while you brush you teeth in the morning and before bedtime, and you can save up to 8 gallons of water! That adds up to more than 200 gallons a month, enough to fill a huge fish tank that holds 6 small sharks!

Keep your shower under 5 minutes long. In fact, a 5-minute shower uses more water than a person living in poverty in a developing country uses in an entire day.

Fix the leak. If your toilet has a leak, you could be wasting about 200 gallons of water every day. That would be like flushing your toilet more than 50 times for no reason!

We each share responsibility for the sustainable management(可持续管理) of our water resources, which means using less water at home, in the workplace, at school, on holidays, on the farm,… everyone, everywhere, every time.

81. How long is it since the first World Water Day? (No more than 5 words)

_________________________________________________________________________

82. How many suggestions does the writer give us to save water? (No more than 2 words)

__________________________________________________________________________

83. What example does the writer give us to show fresh water is a life-or-death issue? (No more than 10 words)

_________________________________________________________________________

84. What’s the purpose of writing this passage? (No more than 12 words)

高一英语学习方法

一、高中英语学习特点：

1、词汇量：

高中英语的特点是知识点散，词汇量大，需要学生不停地花时间去记忆、巩固和应用。高考英语要求会使用约3500个单词和400至500个习惯用语和搭配，与初中相比，明显词汇量增多。此外，学生会发现以前初中学过的词汇在高中英语里要求对其搭配和用法进行拓展。

2、语法从零碎语法变为系统语法：

除词汇量之外，高中英语阶段的语法也和初中不同。初中语法考察的层次较浅，很多语法知识只要死记硬背基本上可以解决问题。但是高中英语的语法却更系统化，更复杂化。难点主要集中在三大从句(包括定语从句、状语从句和名词性从句)、倒装句及非谓语动词，要求学生对语法系统的掌握及灵活应用。

二、高中英语学习方法：

1、单词与词汇：

单词与词汇学习是高中英语学习的重要部分，因此一定要加强学习，从而打下坚实的基础。在学习单词时要注意单词的词性与词意，比如常考的有一词多义、熟词生义等。最好准备一个生词本，积累做题时遇到的生词，结合课后单词进行课内和课外记忆，不断提高词汇量。同时，在词汇的学习中我们要注意提高对词汇的理解和应用，不仅要提高记忆水平，还要提高对词汇的应用，可以通过写作来提高词汇的应用能力。

2、语法：

高中的语法需要系统记忆，我们不难发现许多学生英语学习的困境主要在于语法知识难以理解，导致他们学习英语兴趣的降低，夸大了英语学习的难度。语法的学习对于分析阅读中的长难句至关重要，如果没有一定的语法基础，就无法理解文章的具体意思，对英语学习造成了很大障碍。因此，在课堂上我们要认真跟上老师的思路，系统完整地学好每一个语法点。建议同学们在系统的学习语法后做大量语法题进行巩固。

三、培养良好的学习习惯：

1、准备一本合适的英汉字典。词典选择方面，常见的牛津或朗文英汉词典就可以。词典是我们最好的老师，平常学习英语就要注意通过词典找答案，积累一些常见单词或词汇的用法，从而提升自己的英语水平。

2、每天坚持一定量的英语学习。英语的学习是一个长期积累的过程，不是一蹴而就的，因此我们要保证每天定时定量的学习。这样的话也能保持我们的语感，增强学习的信心。

3、扩大英语的课外阅读。根据自己的水平和爱好选择合适的阅读材料，建议可以阅读一些英语杂志、英语报纸以及一些简单的英语小说，提高英语学习的兴趣。
