(2017·贵州省铜仁市第一中学测试)
I wish there would be a way to describe China in simple terms but that's impossible. For the most part Chinese people are friendly, easygoing and optimistic. They are curious and unusually patient and they are also the hardestworking people I have ever met.
In China, family is everything. In my English classes when the students were asked what they would do if they only had a few hours to live, most students told me how they would spend their last few hours with their families and parents. Many times the subjects in the classes center on families and friends. I teach many students a year, talking to them freely.
The cost of living here is very low compared with that of the US. The city of Xiang Fan I live in isn't large and I live better. Non­imported(非进口的)foods are very cheap, so are clothing and articles of everyday use. The cost of public transportation is very low, too. Chinese value education. However, it is reported that many children can't afford the expenses of schooling and are forced to leave school in some poor areas in China. But they organized Project Hope many years ago. It creates conditions for the poor children to go back to school. In my opinion, Project Hope is of great importance to the development of the rural education.
When we read news of China in the west, rarely, if ever, will we see anything mentioned of the positive changes China has gone through. While it is true that economic miracles have not reached many areas of China, but we also have the same problems.
When I am asked which country I consider better, China or the US, my answer has always been the same, “We are not worse or better than each other; we are only different.”
21．What is the author doing in China?
A．He is teaching English in a school.
B．He is visiting the places of interest.
C．He is studying in a college.
D．He is on business.
22．What are NOT cheap in China in the author's opinion?
A．Clothes and shoes made in China.
B．Local foods.
C．Imported foods.
D．Public transportation tickets.
23．We can infer from the passage that the author thinks ________.
A．the westerners have got to know China well
B．the progress of China is seldom reported in the US
C．China's economic miracles have appeared everywhere
D．the education in rural areas is never cared about in China

(2017·永安、连城、华安、漳平、泉港、龙海联考)
“Your homework is to collect sounds and take them down，” Mrs. Olson said before class was over. She handed out sheets of paper shaped like giant ears.
On his way home, Colin glared out the school­bus window. Not fair, he thought. How could he collect enough sounds on his family's farm? If only he lived in the town.
He got off the bus when it stopped at his mailbox. But he wasn't in the mood to wave as it drove away.
“I'm home！”Colin called when he pushed open the gate. He threw his schoolbag down on a kitchen chair.
“How was school？” His mother asked, walking in with his baby brother on her shoulder.
“I've got homework，” Colin complained.
“Eat something before doing_your_chores.” His mother gave him the animal biscuits. Colin ate two tigers, three lions, and a seal, then drank some milk.
Astrid, Colin's dog, woofed as Colin walked toward the barn(谷仓)．Her young dogs were yipping. Colin placed dog food into their pan. In the chicken house, Colin hurried two hens from their nests.He put their warm eggs into his jacket. The black cow napped in the sun. Colin woke her when he poured corn into her pan. “Moo, thank you！”she seemed to say.
Colin put the eggs in the kitchen, then climbed to his tree house as usual. He could see Dad's beehives(蜂箱)by the field. Six hives usually meant plenty of humming noise. But today he couldn't hear it over the chattering sound of the sparrows. How could a person think?
“QUIET！”Colin shouted.
Suddenly, he sat up straight. Cows mooed and young dogs yipped. Chickens crackled in their yard. When Astrid began woofing below, Colin smiled broadly. “I hear you！”he called. He hurried down from the tree.
24．What does the underlined part in Paragraph 7 refer to?
A．Doing his homework.
B．Helping with farm work.
C．Playing with animals.
D．Babysitting his brother.
25．How many animal sounds are mentioned in the text?

C．6. D．7.
26．What will Colin most probably do next?
A．Walk Astrid.
B．Gather honey.
C．Draw a giant ear.
D．Record the sounds.
答案与解析

24．B　句意理解题。根据后文“Astrid, Colin's dog, woofed as Colin walked toward the barn(谷仓)．”可知为帮助干农活，故选B。
25．C　细节理解题。根据文中“Her young dogs were yipping. ”“Moo, thank you！”“Six hives usually meant plenty of humming noise.”“the chattering sound of the sparrows”“Chickens crackled in their yard.”“Astrid began woofing below，”可知一共有6种声音，故选 C。
26．D　推理判断题。根据第一段及第二段“How could he collect enough sounds on his family's farm？”可知后来Colin将收集声音完成老师的作业，故选D。

(2016·天津高考)
When John was growing up, other kids felt sorry for him. His parents always had him weeding the garden, carrying out the garbage and delivering newspapers. But when John reached adulthood, he was better off than his childhood playmates. He had more job satisfaction, a better marriage and was healthier. Most of all, he was happier. Far happier.
These are the findings of a 40­year study that followed the lives of 456 teenage boys from Boston. The study showed that those who had worked as boys enjoyed happier and more productive lives than those who had not. “Boys who worked in the home or community gained competence (能力) and came to feel they were worthwhile members of society，” said George Vaillant, the psychologist (心理学家) who made the discovery. “And because they felt good about themselves, others felt good about them.”
Vaillant's study followed these males in great detail. Interviews were repeated at ages 25,31 and 47. Under Vaillant, the researchers compared the men's mental­health scores with their boyhood­activity scores. Points were awarded for part­time jobs, housework, effort in school, and ability to deal with problems.
The link between what the men had done as boys and how they turned out as adults was surprisingly sharp. Those who had done the most boyhood activities were twice as likely to have warm relations with a wide variety of people, five times as likely to be well paid and 16 times less likely to have been unemployed. The researchers also found that IQ and family social and economic class made no real difference in how the boys turned out.
Working—at any age—is important. Childhood activities help a child develop responsibility, independence, confidence and competence—the underpinnings (基础) of emotional health. They also help him understand that people must cooperate and work toward common goals. The most competent adults are those who know how to do this. Yet work isn't everything. As Tolstoy once said, “One can live magnificently in this world if one knows how to work and how to love, to work for the person one loves and to love one's work.”
27．What do we know about John?
A．He enjoyed his career and marriage.
B．He had few childhood playmates.
C．He received little love from his family.
D．He was envied by others in his childhood.
28．Vaillant's words in Paragraph 2 serve as ________.
A．a description of personal values and social values
B．an analysis of how work was related to competence
C．an example for parents' expectations of their children
D．an explanation why some boys grew into happy men
29．Vaillant's team obtained their findings by ________.
A．recording the boys' effort in school
B．evaluating the men's mental health
C．comparing different sets of scores
D．measuring the men's problem­solving ability
30．What does the underlined word “sharp” probably mean in Paragraph 4?
A．Quick to react.
B．Having a thin edge.
C．Clear and definite.
D．Sudden and rapid.
31．What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A．Competent adults know more about love than work.
B．Emotional health is essential to a wonderful adult life.
C．Love brings more joy to people than work does.
D．Independence is the key to one's success.

(2017·邵东三中月考)
Let's face it.No one drinks diet(饮食)soda(苏打) for the taste.People drink diet soda in the hope that it will help them lose weight or at least keep them from gaining it.Yet it seems to have exactly the opposite effect, according to a new study.
Researchers from the University of Texas said those who drank two or more diet sodas a day had waist(腰) size increases that were six times greater than those of people who didn't drink diet soda.“What we saw was that the more diet sodas a person drank, the more weight they were likely to gain，” said Sharon Fowler.
The study was based on data from 474 participants in a large, ongoing research project, where the participants were followed for nearly 10 years.
While the findings are surprising, they also offer some explanations.
Nutrition(营养) expert, Melanie Rogers, who works with overweight patients in New York, has found that when patients are switched(改变) from regular to diet soda, they don't lose weight at all.“We weren't seeing weight loss necessarily, and that was confusing to us，” said Rogers.
So why would diet soda cause weight gain? No one knows for sure yet, but it could be that people think they can eat more if they drink diet soda, and so over­compensate (补偿)for the missing calories(卡路里热量单位).
A related study found some sweeteners (甜味剂) raised blood sugar levels in some mice.” Data from this and other potential studies suggest that the promotion of diet sodas and artificial(人造的) sweeteners may be risky，” said study researcher Helen P·Hazuda, professor at the University of Texas's school of medicine. They may be free of calories, but not of consequences.
32．People drink diet soda to ________.
A．stay in fashion
B．enjoy its taste
C．gain more energy
D．achieve weight loss
33．The new study suggests that drinking diet soda______.
A．helps people to be healthier
B．causes people to become heavier
C．offers people more calories
D．makes people much thinner
34．We can learn from the passage that ________.
A．diet soda drinkers tend to eat more food
B．regular soda makes people lose more weight
C．most blood diseases come from diet soda
D．diet soda does help reduce calories
35．Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A．Diet soda is good for your health
B．Diet soda may cause overweight
C．Sweeteners can raise blood sugar levels
D．A research about nutrition
答案与解析
本文介绍了一项有关饮食营养的研究。
32．D　细节理解题。根据第一段中it will help them lose weight or at least keep them from gaining it.可知有些人认为食用苏打有助于减肥。故选项D正确。
33．B　细节理解题。根据第二段those who drank two or more diet sodas a day had waist(腰) size increases that were six times greater than those of people who didn't drink diet soda.一句可知答案选B。
34．A　细节理解题。根据第六段中people think they can eat more if they drink diet soda, and so over­compensate (补偿)for the missing calories(卡路里热量单位)．可知答案A正确。
35．B　主旨大意题。通读全文可知本文介绍了一项有关饮食营养的研究。故答案B正确。

(2017·河北省石家庄市第二中学联考)
Nowadays, e­dictionaries are more and more popular among students. They may be lighter and compacter(简洁的) than any paper dictionary. __36__ However, E­dictionaries should be limited in their use in classrooms, for there are many limits.
__37__ In Japan, prices range from 10,000 yen ($100) to 40,000 yen, depending on how many functions you want and depending on how fashionable you are. A trusty Random House paper dictionary costs $12.95 plus tax.
E­dictionaries are more fragile. Drop your paper dictionary. Go ahead. Hold it above your head and drop it. __38__
E­dictionaries have keypads.__39__ Besides, it is more time consuming than looking through pages and using the index at the top of each page.
Finally, let's consider making corrections or additions. When you find something you'd like to change in the e­dictionary, you can pencil in some notes with the paper type. __40__
A．However, it is impossible to do so with a keypad model.
B．They may even contain more words and expressions.
C．Typing in the spelling of a word is harder.
D．Now, try this with any lightweight plastic e­dictionary, and you'll be picking up the pieces.
E．That huge, heavy paper dictionary that you see in your library looks like a building block in size and weight.
F．E­dictionaries have advantages as well as disadvantages.
G．E­dictionaries are much more expensive.
答案与解析
文章主要介绍了电子词典，对比了电子词典和传统的纸质词典在重量、词汇量、价格、使用等方面存在的差异。
36．B　根据空前句子“They may be lighter and compacter than any paper dictionary.”(它们可能比纸质词典更轻、更简洁。)可知，此处在讲电子词典的优势，选项中只有“它们甚至可能包含更多的单词和短语”是在描述电子词典的优点，另外答案选项中的may与上文句子相呼应。故选B。
37．G　根据下文中的“In Japan, prices range from 10,000 yen ($100) to 40,000 yen，...”“A trusty Random House paper dictionary costs $12.95 plus tax.”可知电子词典比纸质词典在价格上高很多。故选G。
38．D　本段指出电子词典是比较易碎，接下来进行对比。空前句子在讲试着扔纸质词典，那么这里应指“现在扔电子词典试试”。故选D。
39．C　根据空前句子“E­dictionaries have keypads.”(电子词典有袖珍键盘)及空后句子“Besides, it is more time consuming than looking through pages and using the index at the top of each page.”(此外，它要比浏览页面和使用每页顶部的索引还要耗费时间)，可知此处应指使用键盘输入单词是比较困难的。故选C。
40．A　本段主要对比电子词典和纸质词典在修正和标注方面的差异，纸质词典上我们可以用笔在上面做标注，但是我们不可能用键盘去做。故选A。
