21、 environmentalists: Christmas cards and Christmas trees. Paper cards are seen as wasteful and, for some people, going card-free is another way of going green. They also argue that in a world of e-mail, Skype, Facebook and Twitter, people are in touch all the time anyway; they no longer need the
22、 yearly card that connects them with long lost friends. If you want to send Christmas greetings, there are free e-cards, which get the job done with no postage or wasted paper. However, especially for people who didn't grow up with e-mail, there is something missing from a Christmas e-mail.The fir
23、st Christmas cards appeared in London in 1843 and were designed by the same man who had introduced the world's first postage stamp three years earlier.His name was Sir Henry Cole. . They rose in popularity throughout the 20th century.Many people sent cards that were sold for charity.The most famo
24、us of these are the ones sold for UNICEF.In the UK this year, in the three weeks before Christmas, the post office expects to handle 100 million cards every day. Environmental awareness also means that nowadays many people recycle their cards; this helps raise money to plant more trees, as well as r
25、ecreating more paper. When we think of trees at Christmas, there is one that immediately springs (跃人) to mind-the evergreen tree that people decorate with ornaments and place their presents under.The custom dates back almost a thousand years to Germany.Nowadays 33 to 36 million Christmas trees are
26、 produced in America and 50 to 60 million in Europe each year.Some trees are sold live with roots and soil so people can plant them later and reuse them next year. Some people prefer artificial trees as they are reusable and much cheaper than their natural alternative. However, environmentalists
27、point out that they are made from petroleum (石油) products and so have many pollution issues. 66. What is the main idea of the article? A.To introduce the history of two typical Christmas traditions. B.To point out the problems caused by celebrating Christmas. C.To analyze how two Christmas t
28、raditions grew in popularity. D.To explain the debate about some Christmas traditions. 67.What does the underlined word "They" in the fourth paragraph probably mean? A.Many people B.Christmas cards C.Postage stamps D.Christmas e-mails 68.Some people suggest getting rid of paper car
29、ds because . a.they cannot be recycled . b.they are not environmentally friendly c.they are mostly sold for charity d.free e-cards have many advantages over them . e.they are not as necessary as they used to be for people to stay connected A. a, b, d B.a, c, d C. b,
30、 d, e D. b, c, e 69.What can we conclude from the article? A.The first Christmas cards were designed earlier than the world's first stamps. B.This year has seen a dramatic drop in Christmas card sales. C.Environmentalists advise people to buy cards that are sold for charity. D.Growing
31、environmental awareness is encouraging people to recycle their cards. 70.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article? . A.Some people prefer to buy live trees that can be reused next year. B.The custom of decorating Christmas trees first appeared in Britain C.There
32、is always a wider Christmas tree market in America than in Europe. D.Artificial trees are better than natural ones in all aspects. 66、DBCDA ************************************************** 山东省诸城市2018届高三月考---D English teenagers are to receive compulsory (必修的) cooking lessons in schoo
33、ls. The idea is to encourage healthy eating to fight the country's increasing obesity(肥胖) rate.It's feared that basic cooking and food preparation skills are being lost as parents turn to pre-prepared convenience foods. Cooking was once regarded as an important part of education in England-even if
34、 it was mainly aimed at girls.In recent decades cooking has progressively become a minor activity in schools.In many cases the schools themselves have given up cooking meals in kitchens in the schools.But the rising level of obesity has led to a rethink about the food that children are given and the
35、 skills they should be taught. "What I want is to teach young people how to do basic, simple recipes like a tomato sauce, a bolognaise, a simple curry, a stir-fry-which they can use now at home and then in their later life," said Ed Balls, the minister responsible for schools. The new lessons are
36、 due to start in September, but some schools without kitchens will be given longer to adapt. There is also likely to be a shortage of teachers with the right skills, since the trend has been to teach food technology rather than practical cooking.Also the compulsory lessons for hands on cooking wi
37、ll only be one hour a week for one term. But the well-known cookery writer, Pru Leith, believes it will be worth it. '"If we'd done this thirty years ago we might not have the crisis we've got now about obesity and lack of knowledge about food and so on. Every child should know how to cook, not
38、just so that they'll be healthy, but because it's a life skill which is a real pleasure." The renewed interest in cooking is primarily a response to the level of obesity in Britain which is among the highest in Europe, and according to government figures half of all Britons will be obese in 25 yea
39、rs if current trends are not stopped. 71.The passage mainly talks about . A.the compulsory cooking classes B.the lost cooking skills C.the healthy eating D.the reason for obesity 72.Which of the following is NOT the purpose for English teenagers to receive cooking lesso
40、ns? A.To encourage teenagers to eat healthy food. B.To reduce the country's increasing obesity rate. C.To prevent basic cooking and food preparation skills from being lost. D.To stop parents from turning to pre-prepared convenience foods. 73.In what way will cooking lessons benefit the stud
41、ents? A.They will be able to do some basic, simple recipes like a tomato sauce. B.They will be healthy and enjoy the pleasure of such a life skill as well. C.They will be able to make food experiments with the knowledge and skills. D.They will be able to control the level of obesity in the
42、whole country. 74.The well-known cookery writer, Pru Leith, thinks it to offer compulsory cooking lessons in schools. A.difficult B.necessary C.funny D.timely 75.It can be inferred from the passage that . A.cooking has always been an important part of school educa
43、tion in England B.English teenagers will have their cooking lessons twice a week for one year C.the obesity rate in Britain has been rapidly growing in recent decades D.the students will pay a lot of money to the school for their cooking lessons 71、ADBBC *********************************
44、结束 B [201***长沙雅礼中学9次月考] 词数:450 体裁:说明文 难度:4 I needed to get some money so, after Christmas, I took a job in the clothes department at Graham’s for the first fortnight of the January sale. I can’t say that I enjoyed it, but it was an experience I’ll never forget.
45、 I could never understand why there were so many things in the sales; where did they all come from? Now I know the secret! Firstly, there is the special winter stock (货物) and the stock that people buy all the year round; some of these things are slightly reduced. Secondly, there are the summer clot
46、hes they couldn’t sell last year; these are heavily reduced to clear them. Thirdly, there are cheap clothes bought in specially for the sales; these are put out at high prices ten days before the sale begins and then are reduced by 60% in the sale. Clever! Lastly, they buy in “seconds? (clothes not
47、in perfect condition) for the sale and they are sold very cheaply. When I arrived half an hour before opening on the first day of the sale, there was already a queue around three sides of the building. This made me very nervous. When the big moment arrived to open the doors, the security guards, l
48、ooking less confident than usual, came up to them, keys in hand. The moment they had unlocked the doors, they hid behind the doors for protection as the noisy crowd charged in. I couldn’t believe my eyes; this wasn’t shopping, it was a battlefield! One poor lady couldn’t keep her feet and was knocke
49、d over by people pushing from behind. Clothes were flying in all directions as people searched for the sizes, colours and styles they wanted. Quarrels broke out. Mothers were using their small children to crawl(爬行) through people’s legs and get hold of things they couldn’t get near themselves. Wit
50、hin minutes I had half a dozen people pushing clothes under my nose, each wanting to be the first served. Where had the famous English Queue gone? The whole day continued like that, but I kept my temper(脾气)! I was taking money hand over fist and began to realize why, twice a year, Graham’s were happ
