Tulips (郁金香) were introduced into Holland before the 17th century but it did not take long for the flowers to gain popularity among the upper classes. Flowers of such beauty soon became symbols of power and the rich tried their best to lay their hands on some to display them in their gardens. When more people learned of the prices that the rich were willing to pay for tulips, they knew they just found a “getrichquick” gold mine. By 1634, the whole country was so attracted by tulips that all other activities almost came to a stop. People were trading in tulips and even buying and selling bulbs (球茎). At that time, one rare bulb cost as much as ten tons of cheese. Many made a fortune in the beginning. As the prices moved in one direction, they only needed to buy low and sell high, buy high and sell higher. After the gains, confidence rose and many sold away all their property in order to invest more money in tulips, hoping to make more money. The desire was so strong that those who were watching also rushed to the tulip market. Everyone thought that the high demand for tulips would continue forever and prices could only go up because more and more people from all over the world would start to like tulips. When the prices of tulips was much higher than it should be, few people bought them for planting in their gardens. The real demand for the flowers seemed greater than it really was. Many people were buying them for speculation (投機), not appreciation. In 1637, for some unknown reasons, a group of people suddenly realized the danger. The prices of tulips began to fall and the market crashed. When confidence was destroyed, it could not be recovered and prices kept falling. Soon the nobles and the rich became poor. Cries of suffering were heard everywhere in Holland. 36. Why did the upper classes buy tulips in the beginning? A. Because the prices of tulips were low. B. Because they wanted to make a fortune. C. Because tulips were introduced from abroad. D. Because tulips were beautiful and represented power. 37. It can be inferred from the passage that ???. A. greed(贪婪) was the reason why so many people were mad about tulips B. tulips became popular among the upper classes very slowly C. people who were mad about tulips bought them for appreciation D. when the prices were extremely high, most people planted tulips in their gardens 38. The passage is mainly about ???. A. Europe in the 17th century B. buying and selling tulips C. being mad about tulips D. the life of the nobles and the rich B Britons Learn to Forgive LEEDS, England—A Leeds University psychology (心理学) professor is teaching a course to help dozens of Britons forgive their enemies. “The hatred we hold within us is a cancer,” Professor Ken Hart said, adding that holding in anger can lead to problems such as high blood pressure and heart disease. More than 70 people have become members in Harts first 20week workshop in London—a course he says is the first of its kind in the world. These are people who are sick and tired of living with a memory. They realize their bitterness is a poison they think they can pour out, but they end up drinking it themselves, said Canadianborn Hart. The students meet in groups of eight to ten for a twohour workshop with an adviser every fortnight. The course, ending in July, is expected to get rid of the cancer of hatred in these people. “People have lots of negative attitudes towards forgiveness,” he said, “People confuse forgiveness with forgetting. Forgiveness means changing from a negative attitude to a positive one. ” Hart and his team have created instructions to provide the training needed. “The main idea is to give you guidelines on how to look at various kinds of angers and how they affect you, and how to change your attitudes towards the person you are angry with,” said Norman Claringbull, a senior expert on the forgiveness project. Hart said he believes forgiveness is a skill that can be taught, as these people “want to get free of the past”. 39. From this passage we know that ???. A. high blood pressure and heart disease are caused by hatred B. high blood pressure can only be cured by psychology professors C. without hatred, people will have less trouble connected with blood pressure and heart D. people who suffer from high blood pressure and heart disease must have many enemies 40. In Harts first 20week workshop, people there can ???. A. meet their enemies B. change their attitudes towards bitterness C. enjoy the professors speech D. learn how to quarrel with others 41. If you are a member in Harts workshop, youll ???. A. pay much money to Hart B. go to the workshop every night C. attend a gathering twice a month D. pour out everything stored in your mind 42. The author wrote this passage in order to . A. persuade us to go to Harts workshop B. tell us the news about Harts workshop C. tell us how to run a workshop like Harts D. help us to look at various kinds of angers C The freezing Northeast hasnt been a terribly fun place to spend time this winter, so when the chance came for a weekend to Sarasota, Florida, my bags were packed before you could say “sunshine”. I left for the land of warmth and vitamin C (維生素C), thinking of beaches and orange trees. When we touched down to blue skies and warm air, I sent up a small prayer of gratefulness. Swimming pools, wine tasting, and pink sunsets (at normal evening hours, not 4 in the afternoon) filled the weekend, but the best partparticularly to my taste, dulled by months of coldweather root vegetables—was a 7 a. m. adventure to the Sarasota farmers market that proved to be more than worth the early wakeup call. The market, which was founded in 1979, sets up its tents every Saturday from 7 a. m.to 1 p. m., rain or shine, along North Lemon and State streets.Baskets of perfect red strawberries; the redpainted sides of the Java Dawg coffee truck; and most of all, the tomatoes:amazing, large, soft and round red tomatoes. Disappointed by many a broken, vineripened (蔓上成熟的) promise, Ive refused to buy winter tomatoes for years. No matter how attractive they look in the store, once I get them home theyre unfailingly dry, hard, and tasteless. But I homed in, with uncertainty, on one particular table at the Browns Grove Farms stand, full of fresh and soft tomatoes the size of my fist.These were the real deal—and at that moment, I realized that the best part of Sarasota in winter was going to be eating things that back home in New York I wouldnt be experiencing again for months. Delighted as I was by the tomatoes in sight, my happiness deepened when I learned that Browns Grove Farm is one of the suppliers for Jack Dusty, a newly opened restaurant at the Sarasota Ritz Carlton, where—luckily for me—I was planning to have dinner that very night. Without even seeing the menu, I knew Id be ordering every tomato on it. 43. What did the author think of her winter life in New York? A. Exciting.?B. Boring. C. Relaxing.?D.Annoying. 44. What made the authors getting up early worthwhile? A.Having a swim. B. Breathing in fresh air. C. Walking in the morning?sun. D. Visiting a local farmers market. 45. What can we learn about?tomatoes sold in New York in winter? A. They are soft.?B. They look?nice. C. They taste great.?D. They are juicy.46. What was the authorgoing to do that evening? A. Go to a farm. B. Check into a hotel. C.Eat in a restaurant. D. Buy fresh vegetables. D Recently, online high schools in America have sparked (激发) a debate about whether or not taxpayers money should be used to support online education. Online schools receive the same amount of funding as all other public schools, even though they dont have to pay for rent or school equipment. States should use their educational funds to improve education at real schools,?not to support online programs. Some students only use online classes to supplement their school work. They benefit from the social experience of a?traditional high school, while still taking online courses. However, about 90 thousand students in America receive their education only from online schools. 50 thousand of these students take courses at Florida Virtual School, the largest online school in the country. While this method of schooling helps students who live in remote regions, most school systems are upset that they are?losing more students each year to these online programs. Although online learning allows children to work at their own pace, these online schools have only one teacher per several hundred students. Often, teachers cant give struggling students the help they need as they are unable to talk facetoface?with them, to find exactly what theyre having difficulty with. Additionally, even though online schooling accommodates (顧及) students who live in more remote states, students in online programs may suffer in social situations because they will not learn valuable communication skills from their schooling. Similar to students who are home schooled, those who take only online classes wont learn social etiquette (礼节), and will be treated differently by?their peers (同龄人). Online schooling might be useful for places where there are not enough students for a real school, such as agricultural regions, but states should only spend taxpayers money on online schools in extreme?cases. 47. What is the passage mainly about? A. Whether students should?study at online schools. B. Whether online schools should be allowed to?exist. C. Whether taxpayers should pay for online schools. D. Whether?traditional schools should be replaced. 48. According to the passage, online?schooling ???. A. is helpful to students living in remote regions B.allows students to work together C. makes it possible for students to get?immediate help D. develops students critical thinking 49. According to?Paragraph 5, the author worries that students at online schools ???. A. might?lose interest in learning B. would play online games C. could not receive?teachers help D. could not become fully developed 50. What is the?authors attitude? A. Taxpayers should not pay for online schools at?all. B. Taxpayers should pay more for online schools than real schools. C.Taxpayers money should be spent on online schools conditionally. D. Taxpayers should support online schools in different?ways. 四、任務型阅读(共10小题,每小题1分,满分10分) 请认真阅读下列短文, 并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。注意:每个空格只填一个单词。 In a society such as the United states or Canada, which has many national, religious, and cultural differences, people highly value individualism—the differences among people. Teachers place a lot of importance on the qualities that make each student special. The educational systems in these countries show these values. Students do not memorize information. Instead, they work individually and find answers themselves. There is often discussion in the classroom. At an early age,students learn to form their own ideas and opinions. In most Asian societies, by contrast, the people have the same language, history, and culture. Perhaps for this reason, the educational system in much of the Orient reflects societys belief in group goals and purposed rather than individualism. Children in China, Japan, and Korea often work together and help one another on assignments. In the classroom, the teaching methods are often very formal. The teacher lectures, and the students listen. There is not much discussion. Instead, the students recite rules or information that they have?memorized. There are advantages and disadvantages to both of these systems of education. For example, one advantage to the system in Japan is that students there learn much more math and science than American students learn by the end of high school. They also study more hours each day and more days each year than North Americans do. The system is difficult, but it prepares students for a society that values discipline and selfcontrol. There is, however, a disadvantage. Memorization is an important learning method in Japanese schools, yet many students say that after an exam, they forget much of the information?that they have memorized. The advantage of the educational system in North American, on the other hand, is that students learn to think for themselves. The system prepares them for a society that values creative ideas. There is, however, a disadvantage. When students graduate from high school, they havent memorized as many basic rules and facts as students in other countries?have. 五、书面表达(满分25分) 某英文网站正在开展关于“是否取消黄金周”的讨论。请你根据下面所给的要点提示, 用英语写一篇短文,描述目前存在的两种看法, 并陈述你的观点, 以便向该网站投稿。 注意: 1. 词数:150词; 2. 参考词汇:黄金周the Golden Week(或以the GW代替) 参考答案 一、1—5 ADDBA?6—10 DBCCB?11—15 BADCA 二、16—20 CADBC?21—25 ACBAD 26—30 BADCC?31—35 ADCAC 三、36—40 DACCB?41—45 CBBDB 46—50CCADC 四、51.

Some people agreed to cancel the Golden Week. They pointed out that nationwide traveling had put big pressure on transportation, tourist safety and the environment. The Golden Week resulted in crowded scenic spots and packed hotels,making the quality of service decline. However, other people argued the Golden Week had encouraged people to spend more during the sevenday holiday, so it had brought huge profits to the nations tourist industry and promoted the?economic development. Despite the fact that voices calling for its cancellation are becoming even stronger, I still think people need to relax and a common vacation time is very important. But the government should take into consideration not only incomes, but also the satisfaction of those who take the?holiday. (作者:毛春霞,泰州市第三高級中学) |
