For often, achieving what you set out to do is not the important thing. Let me explain. Two brothers decided to dig a deep hole behind their house. As they were working, a couple of older boys stopped by to watch. “What are you doing?” asked one of the visitors. “We plan to dig a hole all the way through the earth!” one of the brothers volunteered excitedly. The older boys began to laugh, telling the younger ones that digging a hole all the way through the earth was impossible. After a long silence, one of the diggers picked up a jar full of spiders(蜘蛛), worms and a variety of insects. He removed the lid and showed the wonderful contents to the visitors who were laughing them. Then he said quietly and confidently, “Even if we dont dig all the way through the earth, look what we found along the way!” Their goal was far too ambitious, but it did cause them to dig. And that is what a goal is for---to cause us to move in the direction we have chosen; in other words, to set us to digging! But not every goal will be fully achieved. Not every job will end successfully. Not every relationship will carry on. Not every hope will come to pass. Not every love will last. Not every attempt will be completed. Not every dream will be realized. But when you fall short of your aim, perhaps you can say, “Yes, but look at what I found along the way! Look at the wonderful things which have come into my life because I tried to do something!” It is in the digging that life is lived. And I believe it is joy in the journey, in the end, that truly matters. 26. When the older boys saw the two brothers digging, they . A. were curious about what they were doing B. volunteered to join the two brothers C. persuaded the brothers to give up digging D. laughed at the brothers 27. Why did one of the diggers show his jar to the visitors? A. Because he wanted to convince them that they would succeed. B. Because he felt angry and decided to ignore them. C. Because he realized the impossibility of digging through the earth. D. Because he wanted to show what they had achieved through digging. 28. What does the writer try to express in Paragraph 8? A. A goal is of great importance. B. Their goal was too ambitious. C. It was their confidence that cause them to dig. D. The more you pay, the more you will gain. 29. What does the underlined sentence really mean? A. Digging helps us live a richer life. B. Life is on the way to achieve the goal. C. Life is to find wonderful things. D. You can enjoy yourself in the digging. 30. Which is the best title for this article? A. How to Achieve a Goal B. Two Brothers and Some Old Boys C. Enjoy the Progress D. A Journey through the Earth B “No air-conditioning? How can you sleep?”a friend asks, horrified. Ive just told him that my family has decided to shut the air-conditioner off, and cut our electric bill. On this first night of our cost-cutting adventure, its only eighty-five degrees. Were not going to suffer, but the three kids grumble anyway. “Its too hot to sleep.”my thirteen-year-old daughter complains. “Im about to die from this heat.”her brother says. “Just try it tonight.”I tell them. In truth, Im too tired to argue for long. My face is sweaty. But I lie quietly, listening to the cricket(蟋蟀) choirs (合唱)outside. That reminds me of childhood. I think about grandma, who lived to ninety-two and was still in charge of my mothers garden until a few weeks ago before she died. And then Im back there in her house and the summer heat of my childhood. I moved my pillow to the foot of my grandmothers bed, and angled my face toward the open window. I turned the pillow over, hunting for the cooler side. Grandma saw me struggling, “If you just watch for the breeze (light wind),”she said, “youll cool off and fall asleep.” She cranked up(拉起) the Venetian blinds (百叶窗). I stared at the white curtain, willing it to move. Lying still in waiting, I suddenly noticed life outside the window, the bug(虫子) choruses, neighbors, porch-sitting late, speaking in soft words that comforted me. “Mom, did you hear that?”my seven-year-old asks, “I think its an owl(猫头鹰) family.” “Probably.” I tell him, “Just keep listening...” Without the noisy air-conditioner, the house is strangely peaceful, and the night noises seem close enough to touch. I hope Im awake tonight, when the first breeze sneaks in. 31. What does the underlined word “grumble” mean? A. shout B. complain C. give up D. lose temper 32. The author mentions her childhood to . A. memorize her considerate and kind grandmother B. suggest a way of handling a night without air-conditioning C. share her childhood experience of going without air-conditioning D. convince the readers of the possibility of life without air-conditioning 33. How did the authors grandmother help the author feel cooler? A. She opened the windows and drew the curtains. B. She asked the author to observe the soft wind. C. She found the cooler side of pillow for the author. D. She persuaded the author to listen to the noise outside. 34. Finally, the children feel without the air-conditioner on. A. peaceful B. intolerable C. bored D. unimaginable 35. What is the best title of this passage? A. Life with no air-conditioner B. A night full of memory C. Waiting for the breeze D. A childhood memory C It is a common belief that of all the wonderful gifts that weve been given, one of the greatest is freedom. That is why so many of us try to gain freedom at any cost. But are all kinds of freedom worth seeking? One windy spring day, I observed young people having fun using the wind to fly their kites. Multicolored creations of varying shapes and sizes filled the skies like beautiful birds moving and dancing. As the strong winds blew against the kites, a string kept them in check. Instead of blowing away with the wind, they arose against it to achieve great heights. They shook and pulled, but the restraining (约束) string and the tail kept them being pulled along, facing upward and against the wind. As the kites struggled and trembled against the string, they seemed to say, “Let me go! Let me go! I want to be free!”They flew beautifully even as they fought the restriction of the string. Finally, one of the kites succeeded in breaking loose. “Free at last,”it seemed to say. “Free to fly with the wind.” Yet freedom from restraint, simply put, is at the mercy of an unsympathetic soft wind. It soon fell to the ground and landed in a mass of weeds and string against a dead bush. “Free at last” free to lie powerless in the dirt, to be blown helplessly along the ground, and to get stuck lifeless against the first obstruction (障碍物). How much like kites we sometimes are. The Heaven gives us misfortunes and restrictions, rules to follow from which we can grow and gain strength. Restraint is a necessary match for the winds of opposition. Some of us fought at the rules so hard that we never fly to reach the heights we might have obtained. We keep part of the rules or laws and never rise high enough to get our tails off the ground. Let us each rise to the great heights, recognizing that some of the restraints that we may feel annoyed about are actually the steady force that helps us go up and achieve. 36. The kites struggled and trembled against the string because they . A. was restrained by the wind B. tried to gain absolute freedom C. wanted to dance like birds D. were at the mercy of the wind 37. What can we learn from the result of the kite that broke loose? A. Freedom prevents us from flying. B. It is restraints that stop us rising. C. Without restrains without freedom. D. There is no justice without freedom. 38. What does the underlined sentence mean? A. If we want to fly higher, we should fight hard at rules. B. People shouldnt obey rules because its hard to follow. C. Rules are necessary for us to reach a higher level. D. Some rules are too strict for people to obey. 39. In the authors opinion, some of the restraints . A. are wonderful gifts given by the God B. are something that we are upset about C. can give us power to fly higher D. should be abolished right away 40. The passage is probably written for . A. general people B. teenagers C. freedom seekers D. parents D When you look at yourself in the mirror, do you ever wonder why you look the way you do? No two faces look exactly alike, making a human face as unique as a fingerprint. Genetics obviously play a major role---no two faces share the same DNA. But even in identical twins, who have the same DNA, there are still small differences in their appearances. So what is it that makes each face different? The answer lies in a small piece of you NDA called a “gene enhancer”, according to a study published in the journal Science. “There are thousands of enhancers in the human genome(基因组),”study leader Axel Visel, a research with Berkeley Lab, US, told Discovery. According to Visel, these DNA pieces act like switches, turning genes on and off and therefore determining whether a certain facial feature develops in a fetus(胎儿) while it is still in the womb(子宫). Whats interesting about gene enhancers is that they dont have to be found anywhere close to the genes they affect. They are able to control their targets from far away, which makes them even more influential. To test how powerful these special DNA pieces are in shaping the face, researchers deleted three of the gene enhancers in mice and compared them with normal mice at 8 weeks of age. The results showed that each enhancer deletion caused a distinct set of differences in the shape of the face---for example, causing an increase or decrease in facial length or width. In fact, scientists first noticed the existence of gene enhancer long ago, but they called them “junk DNA” back then because they didnt produce proteins and were thought to have no biological function. But now “its increasingly clear that important functions are deeply and firmly fixed in this ‘junk,” Visel told New Scientist. Understanding this may help scientists learn why and how things go wrong as a fetus develops, leading to facial defects(变异) such as cleft lips(唇腭裂). While some of these defects are caused by genetic mutations(变异), researchers want to study whether gene enhancers also play a role. 41. The main purpose of the first paragraph is . A. to arouse readers interest to go further reading B. to encourage readers to look at himself in the mirror C. to invite readers to answer a scientific question D. to remind the readers that everyones face is different 42. Which of the following statement is True according to the passage? A. A humans face is determined by his fingerprints. B. No identical twins have exactly the same appearance. C. Its unknown what makes each face different. D. People with the same DNA have the same faces. 43. According to the passage, gene enhancers . A. play an important role in shaping ones face B. can only affect the genes they are close to C. are not so powerful as the scientists expected D. are not found by scientist until recently 44. Why are gene enhancer called as “junk DNA”? A. Because they had no biological function. B. Because they looked like the “junks”. C. Because they only affected the facial characteristics. D. Because they didnt produce proteins. 45. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Development of solving problems of facial birth defects. B. A new discovery of genetics is found by the journal Science. C. Gene enhancers determine facial characteristics. D. How facial feature develops in a fetus in the womb.

A 细节理解题。根据第二段末尾的stopped by to watch(在旁边停下来观看)第三段的”What are you doing?”asked...可知,这几个大孩子对这两兄弟在正做的事感到很好奇。 27. D 细节理解题。根据第七段的Then he said quietly and confidently, “Even if we dont dig all the way through the earth, look what we found along the way!”可知,该男孩是要展示,即使他们挖不穿地球,他们在此过程中已有很多收获。 28. A 归纳判断题。由第八段的but it did cause them to dig. And that is what a goal is for-to cause us to move in the direction we have chosen(但正是这个目标鼓励着他们去挖,这就是目标的作用——驱使我们朝着我们选定的方向前进)可知,作者是在说明”目标很重要”。 29. B 句意理解题。本句字面意思是“正是在挖的过程中过生活(life is lived是live life的被动式)”,结合前句”看看这些因为我在努力做某事而走进我生活的美妙东西”和后一句“而且我相信到最后真正要紧的还是过程中的乐趣”可知,“生活本身就是在达到某一目标的过程中”,故选B。 30. C 主旨大意题。由首段中achieving what you set out to do is not the important thing(达到你设立的目标并不是最重要的事)和本文最后一句“我相信到最后真正要紧的还是过程中的乐趣”可知,作者认为过程比结果重要,所以本文是希望我们好好地“享受过程”,故选C。 (B)作者讲述了自己与孩子度过了一个没有空调的晚上,作者也回忆起自己儿时的经历。 31. B 词义判断题。根据下文两个孩子的话“Its too hot to sleep.”“Im about to die from this heat.” her brother says可知,孩子在“抱怨”没有空调难以忍受。 32. C 细节理解题。根据上一段的最后一句That reminds me of childhood可知,作者是回忆起童年同样是没有空调的一晚。 33. B 细节理解题。根据第七段的“If you just watch for the breeze,” she said, “youll cool off and fall asleep”可知,祖母让作者观察微风。 34. A 推理判断题。通过倒数第三段”Mom, did you hear that?”my seven-year-old asks, “I think its an owl family.”作者的这句话可以看出孩子已经平静下来,注意力已经从没有空调的炎热中转移出来,才会听得到猫头鹰的声音。 35. C 主旨大意题。这篇文章,作者讲了两个经历,一个是儿时跟祖母睡觉,一个是现在跟孩子一起,两个晚上都是炎热没有空调的,祖母让作者观察微风(watch for the breeze)而使作者安静下来,而现在,她也和孩子去期盼微风(the first breeze sneaks in)。本文是记叙文,但文尾最后一句对我们选出正确答案很有帮助。 (C)本文通过风筝的例子说明不惜一切追求自由是不值得的,反之,适当的约束反而可使我们飞得更高。 36. B 细节理解题。根据第三段第三句的they seemed to say,“Let me go! Let me go!I want to be free!”可知B项正确。 37. C 细节理解题。由第三段末和第四段可知,那个挣脱了线绳的风筝自由得随风而飘,到最后“无力地躺在尘土中,无助地任风沿着地面将其吹走,碰到第一个障碍物便毫无生命地卡在那里了”,连动掸的自由也没有了,故选C(没有约束便没有自由)。 38. C 词义猜测题。根据倒数第二段第二句的...rules to follow from which we can grow and gain strength和最后一句的...never rise high enough to get our tails off the ground可知此句意思为“我们中的一些人对法律抵抗得那么厉害,以致达不到本应该到达的高度”,因此,法律或规则对我们达到应达的高度是有必有的,故选C。 39. C 作者观点题。根据最后一句的some of the restraints that we may feel annoyed about are actually the steady force that helps us go up and achieve可知答案。 40. A 推理判断题。根据全文,尤其是最后一段可知,本文是说明“不以规矩,不成方圆”的道理,因此写作对象应是“大众读者”。故选A最佳。 (D)本文讲述了人脸特征的不一样主要是由于人体有一种化学物质gene enhancer。 41. A 写作意图题。根据下文,这一段是引出第二段的内容,而第二段的最后一句So what is it that makes each face different?则是引出本文的主题。 42. B 细节理解题。根据第二段的第三句But even in identical twins, who have identical DNA, there are still small differences in their appearances可知答案。 43. A 推理判断题。根据第二段最后一问句及第三段第一句的回答,也是主题句:The answer lies in a small piece of you NDA called a “gene enhancer”可知,面部的不同取决于gene enhancer。 44. D 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的they didnt produce proteins and were thought to have no biological function可知D正确,注意A答案because they had no biological function的陈述是不对的,因为这个只是科学家当时的错误认识,不是事实。 45. C 主旨大意题。根据全文的结构,特别是第三段的第一句(全文中心句)可以得知。 第二节 信息匹配(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分) 音乐会与观众。 1. E 题目关键信息“enjoy some live music and learn something new”,与E选项的“enjoying live music”相匹配,故选E。 2. D 题目关键信息“attending late night activities”,对应此时间的音乐会只有D选项的“Time: 10:00 pm till late!”。故选D。 3. B 题目关键词“the piano”,对应B栏目的钢琴音乐会。从“doesnt care much about how much the ticket might cost”和B音乐会昂贵的价格也可以得到印证。 4. F 题目关键信息“costs no more than 100 Yuan”,对应F选项音乐会的价格“Price: 90 ~ 680 Yuan”--较适合。 |
