An Englishman, a Frenchman and a Russian were discussing happiness. "Happiness," said the Englishman, "Happiness is when you return home tired after work, yet find your slippers(拖鞋) warming by the fire."

"You English have little romance," said the Frenchman. "Happiness is when you go on a business trip, find a pretty girl who entertains you then afterwards you part without regrets."

"You are both wrong," said the Russian. "True happiness is when you are at home in bed and at 4 a.m., you hear a hammering at the door and outside stand the secret police, who say to you, 'Ivan Ivanovitch, you are under arrest', and you say, 'Sorry, Ivanovitch lives next door.'"

Most children now chat daily either online or through their mobile phones. They are connecting to a huge number of other children all over the world. Some are shy "in real life" but are confident to communicate with others online. Others find support from people of their own age on relationship issues, or problems at home.

Sometimes the online world, just like the real world, can introduce problems, such as arguments. Going online is great fun, but there are also a few people who use the Internet for offensive (冒犯性的) or illegal aims. Children must be made aware of both the good things and the dangers.

To keep children safe, your management must cover the family computer. Just as you decide which TV programmes are suitable, you need to do the same for the websites and chat rooms your children visit. Remind your children that online friends are still strangers. Reminding them of the risks will keep them alert (警惕的).

Computer studies are part of schoolwork now, so it’s likely that your children may know more than you do. We get left behind when it comes to the latest gadgets (小玩意) and the interactive areas of websites, like chat rooms and message boards, which are especially strange. The language of chat is strange to many parents, too. Chatters love to use abbreviations (縮寫) such as: atb—all the best, bbfn—bye bye for now, cul8er—see you later,gr8—great, Idk—I don't know, imbl—it must be love, kit—keep in touch, paw—parents are watching, lol—laugh out loud, xlnt—excellent! It seems like another language, and it is!

28. The passage is meant for _______.

A. children B. parents C. teachers D. net bar owners

29. Which of the following will the author probably agree with?

A. The Internet is no good for children.

B. The chat language is strange to adults.

C. Children shouldn't chat so much online.

D. The Internet is a good place for children.

30. The purpose of writing this passage is to advise _______.

A. people not to use the net language in real life

B. children not to meet online friends freely

C. teachers to have students study on computers

D. parents to protect their children from online dangers

31. In order to keep children safe online, you'd better _______.

A. choose suitable websites and chat rooms for them

B. teach them to use correct net words

C. surf the Internet together with them

D. stop them from using the Internet

Proverbs(諺語) are quite common in spoken English. We don’t normally put them in a composition or a letter. Sometimes it is helpful if you know what common proverbs mean. Here are a few examples.

1) “Once bitten, twice shy.” If a dog bites me, I shall be twice as careful in future when I see it. This proverb is also used to apply to many things and not only to dogs. If you have been cheated at a shop, you will not go to the same shop again.

2) “A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.” If I am a hunter, trying to catch birds, it is better to catch one than to see two birds in a bush but not able to catch them. Thus this means that what you have already got is better than the chance of being able to get something bigger in future.

3) “Don’t be a dog in a manger(槽)”means“ Don’t be selfish.” In a stable (馬房), the manger is the place where the horse’s food is put. Sometimes a dog will sleep in the manger and bark when a horse comes to get its food. The dog does not want to eat the food in the manger but it will not let the horse eat it.

4) “He is sitting on the fence” means that somebody will not say whether he is in favor of a plan or against it. He is sitting on a fence between two opposing sides, perhaps waiting to see which side will win.

5) “He who pays the piper calls the tune.” A piper is a musician. The man who employs or pays a musician can say what tunes the musician will play. Thus this means that if a man provides the money for a plan, he can say how it will be carried out.

6)“You can’t get blood out of a stone” means that you cannot get something from a person who has not got any of the things you want. e. g. you cannot get a million dollars from a poor man.

32. Peter has a bicycle which is much too small for him but he does not want to let his younger brother ride on it. His mother is angry and says to him: ______.

A. You can’t get blood out of a stone B. Don’t be a dog in a manger

C. Once bitten, twice shy. D. To pour oil on troubled waters

33. Mr. Wang paid for a new school. Some people didn’t like the design of the school but they didn’t argue with Mr. Wang because ______.

A. he was sitting on the fence B. once bitten, twice shy

C. he who pays the piper calls the tune D. a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush

34. Mrs. Lin wanted to buy a new dress. Her husband suggested that she buy it from a shop near their home. Mrs. Lin disagreed because she had been cheated by that shop. So she said: “I won’t go there again because ______.”

A. a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush B. I am sitting on the fence

C. once bitten, twice shy D. too many cooks spoil the broth

35. Mr. Brown had quite a good job in Hong Kong but he thought that if he went to Singapore, he might get a much better job with more money and a larger house. His wife didn’t want him to leave his job in Hong Kong and she reminded him that ______.

A. a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush B. too many cooks spoil the broth

C. you cannot get blood out of a stone D. he who pays the piper calls the tune

Salvador Dali (1904-1989) was one of the most popular of modern artists. The Pompidou Centre in Paris is showing its respect and admiration for the artist and his powerful personality with an exhibition bringing together over 200 paintings, sculptures, drawings and more. Among the works and masterworks on exhibition the visitor will find the best pieces, most importantly The Persistence of Memory. There is also L’Enigme sans Fin from 1938, works on paper, objects, and projects for stage and screen and selected parts from television programmes reflecting the artist’s showman qualities.

The visitor will enter the World of Dali through an egg and is met with the beginning, the world of birth. The exhibition follows a path of time and subject with the visitor exiting through the brain.

The exhibition shows how Dali draws the viewer between two infinities(無限), "From the infinity small to the infinity large, contraction and expansion coming in and out of focus: amazing Flemish accuracy and the showy Baroque of old painting that he used in his museum-theatre in Figueras," explains the Pompidou Centre.

The fine selection of the major works was done in close collaboration(合作)with the Museo Nacional Reina Sofia in Madrid, Spain, and with contributions from other institutions like the Salvador Dali Museum in St. Petersburg, Florida.

4. Which of the following best describes Dali according to Paragraph 1?

A. Optimistic. B. Productive.

C. Generous. D. Traditional.

5. What is Dali’s The Persistence of Memory considered to be?

A. One of his masterworks.

B. A successful screen adaptation.

C. An artistic creation for the stage.

D. One of the best TV programmes.

6. How are the exhibits arranged at the World of Dali?

C. By size and shape. D. By time and subject.

7. What does the word "contributions" in the last paragraph refer to?

A. Artworks. B. Projects. C. Donations. D. Documents.

5. A 【解析】細節理解題。根據第一段中的"Among the works and masterworks on exhibition the visitor will find the best pieces, most importantly The Persistence of Memory"可知，薩爾瓦多•達利的作品The Persistence of Memory被認爲是他的一幅傑作。

6. D 【解析】細節理解題。根據第二段中的"The exhibition follows a path of time and subject with the visitor exiting through the brain"可知，達利的世界是按照時間和主題組織作品展覽的。

7. A 【解析】詞義猜測題。根據最後一段可知,多家博物館通力合作，共同精選展出作品。文中提到像西班牙馬德里的博物館和聖彼德斯堡的博物館這樣的機構也提供薩爾瓦多•達利的作品參加展覽。由此推測，contributions指"作品"，故選A。

Nowadays women appear to have a positive image of themselves as safer drivers than men.

In a survey done for insurer MetLife,51% of women said they drive more safely. The evidence is on their side: Men are 3.4 times more likely than women to get a ticket for careless driving and 3.1 times as likely to be punished for drunk driving."Women are on average less aggressive and more law abiding (守法的) drivers, which leads to fewer accidents, " the report says. However, not all male drivers share the same opinion. Of the men surveyed by MetLife,39% claimed male drivers were safer. The findings did back them up on one point: automotive knowledge. The report showed that more men are familiar with current safety equipment such as electronic stability control, which helps prevent rollover accidents.

Auto safety unavoidably matters to Money. Insurance companies focus on what classes of drivers have the lowest dollar amounts of claims, and for now, that mainly includes women. In general, women pay about 9% less for auto insurance than men. A study by the website Insweb also showed that auto insurance rates are lower for women in most states. Among individual states, women get the greatest, advantage in Wyoming (where they pay 20% less)，South Dakota and Washington, D.C., where their insurance costs are 16% lower.

"More than 11,900 male drivers died in US traffic accidents in 2009, compared with just under 4,900 women drivers" according to the study."Based on miles traveled, men died at a rate of 2.5 deaths per 100 million miles traveled, vs.1.7 deaths for women."

8. According to the study, female drivers _____________.

A. are more aggressive while driving

B. are more interested in auto knowledge

C. are more likely to stick driving laws

D. are more familiar with safety equipment

9. Insurance companies focus on female driver clients probably because they _____________.

A. cause more accidents on the road

B. pay more money to the insurance companies

C. take the most part of the insurance clients

D. have the lowest amount of money on insurance claims

10. We can infer from the passage that_____________.

A. men are 3.1 times more likely to get tickets than women

B. all women in the USA pay the same for their auto insurance

C. more female drivers die every year than male drivers

D. women are generally safer drivers than the opposite gender

11. The writer mainly develops paragraphs by_____________.

A. giving examples 　　　 B. making comparisons

Anyone who has ever tried to make their way through the center of Amsterdam in a car knows it: the city is owned by cyclists. They hurry in swarms through the streets, unbothered by traffic rules, taking precedence (優先權) whenever they want, rendering motorists powerless by their sheer numbers.

Cyclists rule in Amsterdam and great pains have been taken to accommodate them: the city is equipped with an elaborate network of cycle paths and lanes, so safe and comfortable that even toddlers and elderly people use bikes as the easiest mode of transport. It’s not only Amsterdam which boasts a network of cycle paths, of course; you’ll find them in all Dutch cities.

The Dutch take this for granted; they even tend to believe these cycle paths have existed since the beginning of time. But that is certainly not the case. This was a time in the 1950s and 1960s, when cyclists were under severe threat of being expelled(除名) from Dutch cities by the growing number of cars. Only thanks to fierce activism and a number of decisive events would Amsterdam succeed in becoming what it is, unquestionably, now: the bicycle capital of the world.

12. According to the passage, while cyclists in Amsterdam are crossing a street, ___________.

A. they never feel easy to cross it as there are many cars

B. they ignore traffic rules and follow motorists in swarms

C. they cross it in a large number regardless of traffic rules

D. they feel very nervous and cross it cautiously one after another

13. This passage is most probably taken from ___________.

B. a travelling magazine

C. an academic report

D. an instructive brochure

B. These cycle paths haven’t existed since the beginning of time.

C. Cities in some other countries have also begun to build their own cyclepaths.

D. In 1950s and 1960s, cyclists were in the face of being driven by the growing number of cars.

15. This passage mainly tells us ___________.

A. why the people in Amsterdam rode bicycles

B. when Amsterdam built many cycle paths and lanes

C. how Amsterdam became the bicycle capital of the world

12. C　【解析】細節理解題。根據第一段中的"They hurry in swarms through their sheer numbers."可知，騎自行車的人無視交通規則，成羣地穿過街道。故C項符合題意。

15. C　【解析】主旨大意題。根據全文內容，尤其是最後一段"Only thanks to ... of the world."可知，本文主要講述的是阿姆斯特丹是如何成爲世界自行車之都的。故C項符合題意。

My husband, Tom, has always been good with animals, but I was still amazed when he befriended a female grouse (松雞). It’s 21 for a grouse to have any contact (接觸) with people. In fact, they’re hard to spot, 22 they usually fly off when they hear humans approaching.

This grouse came into our lives in 23 was working out in the field when he 24 her walking around at the edge of the field. She was 25 unafraid and seemed to be 26 about what he was doing.

Tom saw the 27 bird several times, and she got more comfortable around him. We quickly grew 28 of the bird and decided to call her Mildred.

One day, as Tom was working, Mildred came within a few feet of him to watch. Tom 29 he didn’t see her and kept working to see what she would do next.

Apparently, she didn’t like to be 30 . She’d run up and peck (啄) at Tom’s hands, then 31 off to see what he would do. This went on for about 20 minutes, until Mildred became tired of the 32 and left.

As spring went and summer came, Mildred started to 33 more and more often. 34 Mildred felt comfortable enough to jump up on Tom’s leg and stay long enough for me to get a 35 of the two of them together. This friendly grouse soon felt 36 not just with our family, but with anybody who walked or drove by.

When hunting season opened, we put a 37 at the end of our driveway asking 38 not to shoot our pet grouse. My father, who lived down the road, 39 warned people not to shoot her. 40 , hunters would stop and take pictures, because they had never seen anything like her.

【答案】

【語篇解讀】本文作者講述了自己一家人和一隻松雞的故事。

21. D interesting有趣的;reasonable合理的;impossible不可能的;unusual不尋常的。根據上文作者對此事感到驚訝"I was still amazed"和下文中對松雞性情的介紹"they usually fly off when they hear humans approaching."可知松雞和人密切接觸的情況是不常見的。

22. B though 儘管;because因爲;unless除非;until直到。前句提到they’re hard to spot人們很難看到松雞，後句內容說它們見到人類的接近就會飛走，由此可知人們很難見到松雞的原因是它們懼怕人類，後句和前句是因果關係。

25. D naturally自然地;certainly 當然地;normally正常地;surprisingly令人驚訝地。從上文內容可知松雞是怕人的，見到人就飛走，而這隻松雞不怕人，所以讓人驚訝。

26. B crazy瘋狂的，着迷的;curious好奇的;concerned關心的;cautious小心的。從空前內容可知松雞不怕人，由此推斷應該是好奇Tom在做什麼，其他不符合語境。

27. C shy 害羞的;awkward尷尬的;friendly 友好的;elegant優雅的。從後句內容可知這隻松雞不怕Tom，而且在他身邊越來越自在，此外在文章倒數第二段也提到friendly grouse，由此可知這隻松雞是友好的。

28. C careful小心的;tired厭倦的;fond喜歡的;sick噁心的，生病的。從空後內容可知作者和丈夫給松雞取了名字，由此判斷他們對這隻松雞越來越喜歡，be fond of 意思是"喜歡"。

29. D 考查動詞詞義辨析及語境理解。supposed認爲，猜想;realized意識到;hoped希望;pretended假裝。前面提到Tom看到松雞走近他身邊，後面又說沒看到她，由此判斷他是假裝沒看見，想看看松雞會如何反應。

30. A ignored忽略，不理睬;observed觀察，遵守，慶祝;amazed感到驚訝;disturbed打擾。上文提到Tom故意裝作沒看到這隻松雞，空後又描述松雞去啄Tom的手，由此判斷松雞是想引起Tom的注意，不想被忽視。

31. B put放;back後退;place安置，放;take帶走。從描述的情景可以推測松雞啄了Tom之後就退後看他的反應，選B。

32. A game遊戲;work工作;place地方;man人。根據上文的敘述可知在Tom不理睬松雞的情況下，松雞反反覆覆地去啄Tom，然後看他的反應，這對它來說是一種遊戲。

33. B give up 放棄;come out出來;turn over翻轉;fly by飛過。根據下文內容可知夏天到了松雞更加頻繁地外出走動了。

34. A Eventually 最終;Suddenly突然;Constantly不斷地;Presently目前地。從上文內容可知松雞一點一點地接近人類，膽子越來越大，最後都飛到Tom身上，由此判斷答案選A。

37. B lantern燈籠;sign 招牌;gun 槍支;loudspeaker揚聲器。根據情理可知要想提醒人們應該是樹立起一個警示牌，而且空前動詞put也只能和sign構成搭配。

38. C drivers司機;farmers農民;hunters獵人;tourists遊客。從情理可知四個選項中會獵殺動物的只有獵人，而且通過下文獵人與松雞拍照也可以判斷作者是提醒獵人們不要獵殺他們的松雞。

39. D just 僅僅;yet 然而;thus因此;also也。前面內容提到作者豎起牌子警示人們不要獵殺這隻友好的松雞，而父親同時也警告人們別獵殺那隻松雞，由此可知答案選D。

40. A In fact 事實上;For long很長時間;On the contrary相反;By the way 順便說。上文提到作者和家人都提醒人們不要去傷害這隻松雞，而獵人們不僅沒有獵殺松雞，甚至還和松雞一起拍照，故A選項內容符合語境。

第二節 (共10小題;每小題1.5分，滿分15分)

閱讀下面材料，在空白處填入1個適當的單詞或括號內單詞的正確形式。

Whenever I use public transport and if I get a place to sit, I offer that seat to someone who 41 (need) it more than I, especially to the elderly, to women or someone 42 (desperate) looking for a seat. I have made a habit of saying "Thank you" to those 43 are sacrificing their places for the fellow passengers on public transport.

So many times I 44 (experience) that showing kindness in public places spreads like wildfire.

Observing and experiencing such things give huge joy and 48 (please).

I keep thinking that goodness will spread around the world through these ways. Every human being has __49__ pure soul having all goodness, but the only need is 50 (come) out open to behave in a way that is already so natural within us.

【答案】

【語篇解讀】本文是一篇夾敘夾議的文章，講述了作者每次乘坐公交車時總是會給有需要的人讓座，作者認爲在公共場合做好事會像野火一樣迅速傳播。

43. who 考查定語從句的引導詞。those who… 表示"做某事的那些人"，who引導定語從句，在從句中作主語，先行詞是those，指人。

44. have experienced 考查時態。根據前面的So many times可知作者經歷過很過次了，所以應用現在完成時。故填 have experienced。

45. inspired 考查形容詞。get inspired表示"受到啓發，激勵"。故填inspired。

46. for 考查固定搭配。for example"例如"，爲固定短語。故填for。

47. themselves 考查反身代詞。當主語跟賓語是同一人時，賓語應用反身代詞。adjust oneself to意爲"調整自己以適應……"。

48. pleasure 考查名詞。所填空與joy並列，應用名詞，且此處爲不可數名詞，故填pleasure。

49. a 考查冠詞。每個人都擁有一顆至善的純潔心靈。soul在這裏是抽象名詞具體化，且此處表示泛指，應用不定冠詞修飾。故填a。

50. to come 考查非謂語動詞。不定式作表語強調的是一次性、具體的、將要發生的動作。故填to come。

【答案】

Suddenly I found that Lin Ling, one of my , worked a waitress there. speaking, it was great surprise for me to find her working there. As far as I know, she’ s from a family.

When , she said, "I just want to earn some pocket money so that can help some children in poor areas go back to school." a good girl! I should learn from her.

第一處：wait→waited 本句句首時間爲Last Sunday，所以應該爲過去時態，故wait改爲waited。

第五處：great前加a 句意：一個大驚喜。此處 surprise表示"驚喜"，爲可數名詞，故great surprise改成a great surprise。

第六處：richer→rich 此處family是名詞，且不表示比較，應該用形容詞的原級修飾，故richer改爲rich。

第七處：刪掉to make sb. do sth.讓某人做某事，使某人做某事，爲固定表達，故刪掉work前的to。

第八處：asking→asked 此處是狀語從句When she was asked的省略，由於從句主語和主句主語一致，且從句謂語中含有be動詞，因此省略了從句的主語和be;she與ask之間爲被動關係，故asking改爲asked。

Dear friends,

___________________________________________________________________________________________

【參考範文】

Dear friends,

In today’s world, being able to master a foreign language will be helpful in our life. Here, I’d like to share my learning methods.

First, I think it useful to learn grammar and remember as many useful sentence patterns as we can. I believe the more we read, the better our English will be. So I spend much time reading English newspapers and magazines after class, which helps a lot to improve my English. Besides, TV and radio programs are also of great help.

Learning English not only increases my awareness of foreign cultures but also helps me to communicate with English-speaking people and make more new friends.

However, sometimes I get discouraged because I keep forgetting the words I have just learned. I’d like to use the opportunity to seek for your advice. Thank you!　　

高一英語下學期期末考試試卷題

第一部分閱讀理解(共兩節，滿分40分)

第一節 (共15小題;每小題2分，滿分30分)

閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的A、B、C和D四個選項中，選出最佳選項。

Modern theme parks

The history of modern theme parks started with the pleasure gardens of Europe, which were built around important cities in the 1550s. The main attractions were flowers, fountains, dancing, fireworks, games, stage shows and some simple amusement rides. These pleasure gardens were early amusement parks, from which theme parks developed.

In the late 1880s，with the decline(衰退) of pleasure gardens in Europe, amusement parks spread to North America, mostly to solve the money problem of railway companies. People used railway services a lot during the week to go to work, but much less on weekends and other holidays. Therefore, amusement parks were built at the end of railway lines so that people would use the railways every day.

In 1894, Paul Boyton, an Irish American, built the world’s first modern amusement park called Paul Boyton’s Water Chutes in Chicago, USA. Since then, amusement parks have grown in number and size.

Today, there are still many amusement parks around the world. For example, Bakken Amusement Park in Denmark, which was opened in the 1580s, is the oldest amusement park in the world.

Modern theme parks grew out of amusement parks. Different from amusement parks, theme parks place more importance on showing themes or ideas in some related(相關的) areas. These theme areas recreated a special time and place for visitors to enjoy themselves. Common themes are culture, fantasy, history and religion.

The most important theme park began with a mouse and a man, Walter Elias Disney, better known as Walt Disney.

【答案】

【語篇解讀】本文主要講述了現代主題公園的歷史。

3. D　【解析】細節理解題。文章最後一段只提到最重要的主題公園是由Walt Disney建的。

4. A　【解析】推理判斷題。由第一段第一句得知16世紀50年代在一些重要城市建立遊樂園，故A項符合題意。

There are so many expressions in American English that sound pleasant but are not.

"Face the music" is a good example. When someone says they have to "face the music", it does not mean they are going to a musical performance or concert. To "face the music" means to accept the unpleasant results of an action.

Imagine a friend asks you to take care of her beautiful red sports car. She gives you the keys and says, "Thanks so much for watching my car while I’m away. But please do not drive it. It is an extremely fast car and you are not on the insurance."

But you do not listen. You want to show off to some friends and pretend the car is yours. So, you drive it around town one night. As bad luck would have it, you lose control of the car and drive it into a stop sign. The damage is severe. When your friend returns you must tell her what you have done and "face the music".

The "music" here is the consequence or result of your actions. It could be losing her friendship or paying for repairs to her sports car or both. Whatever the music is, you must face it.

There are other American expressions that mean the same as "face the music".

To "take your medicine" means to accept the results from something bad you have done. And if someone says, "You made your bed. Now lie in it." He means you created a bad situation and now you will experience the results, or as we say in American spoken English, you must deal with it!

"Pay the piper" also means the same as "face the music". But, that expression has its own very interesting beginning. We will talk about that on another Words and Their Stories.

5. Which of the following expressions doesn’t have the same meaning with the others?

A. Face the music. B. Take your medicine.

C. Make your bed. D. Pay the piper.

6. What may be talked about in the next programme?

A. Other words and their stories.

B. The beginning of "pay the piper".

C. The wider use of "face the music".

D. An example of "take your medicine".

7. What does "face the music" mean?

A. Going to a musical performance.

B. Accepting the unpleasant results of an action.

C. Dealing with the situation you have caused.

D. Apologizing to the person you have hurt.

8. Which action belongs to a "take your medicine"?

A. You broke the traffic rules and caused an accident.

B. You worked hard but failed in the exam.

C. You moved to a new city and lost touch with your old friends.

D. You caught a cold and took some medicine.

【答案】

【語篇解讀】本文介紹了美國的一些習語，它們都聽起來很好，但實際卻指不好的結果。

7. B 【解析】細節理解題。由第二段最後一句可知，B選項切題。

8. A 【解析】推理判斷題。由倒數第二段第一句可知，"take your medicine"指的是要接受你的不好的行爲產生的後果，故A選項切題。

Group exercise is one of the most effective ways to improve physical fitness and sustain(保持) a healthy lifestyle. Group exercise is challenging, yet fun and empowering! Of course everyone knows that exercise is good for the body. However, studies have shown that when exercise is performed in groups, it’s not only great for improving physical health but for psychological health. It’s an opportunity to be social, release endorphins(內啡肽), and improve your strength. Additionally, group exercise creates a community feel and the shared common goal motivates participants to work hard. The instrumental support of taking on a fitness journey with others proves more effective than going to the gym alone.

Another beneficial aspect of group exercise is the informational support participants receive from the instructor. Many people fear the gym because they feel lost and don’t want to embarrass themselves. If you feel you can relate, then group training is an even better option for you. It’s a great opportunity to learn more about fitness through the clear instruction and supervision(監管) of a fitness instructor. If you’re tired of wandering around the gym wasting time and becoming bored, you can attend an upbeat group fitness class that’ll keep your workout on track. Don’t let fitness frighten you!

If you’re serious about wanting to live a healthy lifestyle, it’s extremely important to surround yourself with people who’ll provide you with the proper emotional support. I wouldn’t scold anyone for deciding to party on weekends and in turn I wouldn’t expect anyone to give offence to me for focusing on my health. Surround yourself with people who uplift, encourage and understand you! Make fitness even more fun by trying something new or any group fitness class, with a friend. Plan to go for a jog together. Then try a fun healthy restaurant or fresh juice bar! Fitness can be both fun and social!

Surrounding yourself with people who’ll provide you with respect support can be very beneficial while working towards reaching health and fitness goals. First, decide to do it for yourself and work towards staying positive. Then make sure the people you surround yourself with are supportive. Don’t let negativity ruin your motivation.

9. The first paragraph focuses on __________.

A. the greatest challenge of group exercise

B. the most effective way to improve physical fitness

C. the contribution of group exercise to psychological health

D. the shared common goal in performing exercise in groups

10. The underlined word "upbeat" in the second paragraph probably means "__________".

A. cheerful B. average C. serious D. temporary

11. When it comes to emotional support, the author thinks it necessary __________.

A. to sustain a colorful lifestyle

B. to party on weekends with positive people

C. to try a fun healthy restaurant regularly

As we know, many teen celebrities(名人) feel and think that having a slimmer figure can do great good to them. But, does size really matter? Are teenage fans trying hard to become like their celebrity idols(偶像)? Do celebrities really have the power to influence people, especially teenagers?

For the longest time, many parents blame teen idols for influencing the way their kids act. Have you noticed how teens idolize the celebrities these days? Even, their personal affairs are being followed by kids these days. Take for example the case of Lindsay Lohan of Mary Kate Ashley. They are definitely famous teen stars. But, since they are trying to project an image to satisfy a lot of people in show business, their health and body suffer. Many kids are aware of this problem. But they are easily influenced by these celebrities to exercise and eat less.

It is a fact that the media, and especially famous teen celebrities, can influence people powerfully. But teenagers are easily influenced because teenage years are the period when our personality and identity developments take place.

Avoiding other people in social situations is a technique that is frequently used by those who suffer from extreme shyness.

They turn down invitations to 　23　, turn down promotions at work, and they might cross the street just to __24__ talking to someone they know, 　25　they like that person.

This sort of 　26　probably makes no sense to the person who is not extremely shy. 　27　, to persons who feel anxious when they are around others, avoiding others may seem to be the 　28　solution they can think of. As soon as they rush away from a social 　29　they feel an intense inner sense of 　30　. No longer do they need to worry as much.

Although avoiding others is a very common 　31　used by many shy people, this social avoidance will actually make their problem 　32　. Not only is their fear of being around other people likely to 　33　if they keep avoiding others, but people who are shy will feel even more lonely and less 　34　the longer they avoid social interactions (交流).

【答案】

【語篇解讀】本文主要講述的了關於羞澀的人的社交。

24. D 羞澀的人不願跟人交談，因此他們總是避免跟人交談。此處意爲"他們可能穿過街道僅僅是爲了避免與他們認識的人交談"。stop"停止"，appreciate"感激;欣賞"，keep"保持"，均不合題意。

25. A 根據文章內容可知，即使他們喜歡這個人，羞澀的人也不願跟他們認識的這個人交談。A項符合題意。as if "好像"，in case"以免，以防萬一"，if only"要是……該多好"，均不符合語境。

26. C 從上文敘述的羞澀的人不願跟人打交道可知，此處指這種行爲，而不是"目的"、"方法"或"結果"。

27. B 句子前後構成轉折關係。這種行爲對不是很羞澀的人來說沒有多大意義，但對於特別羞澀的人來說，意義就不同了。

28. D 對於羞澀的人來說，避免跟人打交道是他們能想到的最佳的解決辦法。

29. A 文章第一句有提示，羞澀的人儘量避免參加社交場合。

30. C 羞澀的人逃避了社交場合，他們內心會感到極大的寬慰。humour表示"幽默感"，不合語境。

31. B 文章強調的是羞澀的人逃避社交場合的做法或方法。technique"技巧"，最接近語境。文章第一句也有提示。tool"工具"，lesson"教訓"，benefit"益處"，均不符合語境。

32. D 逃避只會使羞澀感加劇，使問題更加嚴重。make... worse"使……更加嚴重"，其他均不合語境。

36. B 從下文醫生鼓勵羞澀的人積極參加社交場合可知，他們建議用相反的方法來"以毒攻毒"，消除人們的羞澀感。

37. A 根據語境判斷，此處是醫生的做法，他們不允許羞澀的人繼續逃避社交場合，A項符合題意。

38. C 根據語境和常識判斷，醫生鼓勵羞澀的人逐漸參加他們最恐懼的社交場合。

39. D 此處是條件狀語從句，因此用if。unless引導條件狀語從句，表示相反的意義。

40. B 此處是固定的表達方式，表示"牢記……"用keep ... in mind，其他選項不符合搭配。

第二節 (共10小題;每小題1.5分，滿分15分)

閱讀下面材料，在空白處填入1個適當的單詞或括號內單詞的正確形式。

Edison is one of the greatest scientists in the world. He showed us the true meaning of the saying "No pains, no gains." However, not all the people understand why he is famous.

One day when Edison was 41 his way home, a young man stopped him and 42 (require) to have a word with him. Edison accepted his request. The young man asked, "How, Mr. Edison, can you invent so many __43__(thing) and achieve your fame?"

The scientist said, "It seems 44 you have been thinking of becoming famous every day."

The young man nodded, "Yes. I have been dreaming of 45 (become) a person as famous as you. Every minute I am thinking of how to become famous. I don’t know when I can achieve 46 (I) reputation."Edison told him, "Forget it, young man. 47 you want to be a famous man this way, you will have to wait until you die!"

"Why should I?" the young man was 48 (puzzle). Edison said, "What you dream is actually a high building. You never think of how to build it with bricks. Thus the building will never come 49 reality. However, your story can serve as 50 mirror. People will remember you because of your idleness and laziness. They will often speak of your name when they give warnings to their children. Aren’t you a ‘famous’ person by then?"

【答案】

【語篇解讀】本文通過愛迪生和一個年輕人的對話告訴我們這樣一個道理：如果我們總羨慕別人的成功，而自己不去付出，那我們永遠都不會有別人的成就。

41. on　考查固定搭配。on one’s way home"在某人回家的路上"。

42. required　考查動詞的時態。根據語境並分析句子結構可知，這裏and連接兩個並列的謂語動詞，所以空處的時態應與stopped的時態保持一致。故用一般過去時。

47. If　考查條件狀語從句。根據語境並分析句子結構可知，此處應用If引導條件狀語從句，表示"如果……"。

48. puzzled　考查詞形轉換。分析句子結構可知，此處缺少表語，又因爲主語爲"the young man"，因此用puzzled，表示"困惑的"。

49. into　考查固定搭配。come into reality意爲"變成現實"。

50. a　考查冠詞。此處表泛指，a mirror"一面鏡子"。

I’m so exciting that our drama club won the first prize in this competition. Participating in this club help us to learn more about drama, but develop our self-confidence and cultural qualities as well. Besides, thanks for the club, I have known many friends who share the same interest with myself. There we communicate and learn from each other. Before the competition we keep on practicing for long time. Luckily, our efforts were paid off, what is beyond our expectation. Finally, I’d like to express my thanks to all of our teachers who directed us, friends who helped us, and partners who worked hardly. Without you, we couldn’t have made such a great achievement.

【答案】

I’m so that our drama club won the first prize in this competition. Participating in this club us to learn more about drama, develop our self-confidence and cultural qualities as well. Besides, thanks the club, I have known many friends who share the same interest with . There we communicate and learn from each other. Before the competition we on practicing for long time. Luckily, our efforts were paid off, is beyond our expectation. Finally, I’d like to express my thanks to all of our teachers who directed us, friends who helped us, and partners who worked . Without you, we couldn’t have made such a great achievement.

第一處：exciting→excited 考查形容詞。exciting意爲"令人興奮的"，形容事物的性質、特點。excited意爲"興奮的"，形容人的感受。該處指"我"很興奮，表達的是"我"的情感感受，故要將exciting改爲excited。

第四處：for→to 考查介詞。thanks for意爲"爲……而感謝某人"。thanks to 意爲"多虧，由於"，該處指由於參加俱樂部，我認識了很多朋友。故要將for改爲to。

第五處：myself→me 考查代詞。who share the same interest with me是定語從句，修飾many friends。該定語從句的意思應是"這些朋友和我有共同的興趣"，故要將myself改爲me。

第六處：keep→kept 考查時態。該句的時間狀語爲"Before the competition"，由文章第一句可知，competition已經舉行了，故該句表達的是過去的事情，因此謂語動詞要用過去式。故要將keep改爲kept。

第七處：long前加a 考查冠詞。a long time意爲"很長一段時間"，time前面有形容詞修飾時，經常和不定冠詞a連用。故要在long前加a。

第八處：刪除were 考查語態。pay off意爲"取得成功"，是不及物動詞短語，不用於被動語態，故were多餘，應去掉。

第九處：what→which 考查定語從句。"which is beyond our expectation"是非限制性定語從句，修飾前面整個句子，引導詞在從句中作主語，表示"這/那"，故用關係代詞which引導該從句。

第十處：hardly→hard 考查副詞。hardly意爲"幾乎不"，hard意爲"刻苦地，努力地"，該處指努力工作，故要將hardly改爲hard。

第二節書面表達(滿分25分)

【參考範文】

Dear Jim,

It’s great to hear from you. I feel proud knowing your interest in Chinese history.

As for my favorite figure in Chinese history, it must be Wei Yuan, a great thinker in the late Qing Dynasty. He, in his book, Haiguo Tuzhi (Maps and Records of the World), introduced modern technologies and ideas to China. That opened our eyes to the world. In fact, he inspires me to major in English in college, to be a bridge between China and the world.

Interested in knowing more? I can find you some books! Just let me know.

Cheers!

Yours,

Li Hua
