18、。 Mrs. Harrington was glad to be back at the block of flats where she lived. Her shopping had tired her. In the 36 her thoughts were on lunch and a good rest; but when she got out at her own floor, both were forgotten in her 37 discovery that front door was 38 . She was thinking she must blame her d

19、aily _39_ the next morning for such a terrible piece of carelessness, when she remembered that she had _40 _ both keys in their locks. She walked slowly into the hall and at once noticed that all the _4l_ were open, yet following her regular practice she had shut them before going out. Looking into

20、the drawing room, she saw a scene of _42_ over her writing desk. It was as clear as daylight then that her flat had been broken into during her _43_. Her first angry thought was to go _44_ all the rooms looking for the thieves, but then she decided that at her age it might be more _45_ to have someo

By this time her legs were beginning to tremble, so she sat down and _47_ a cup of very strong tea while he telephoned the police.Then they went back and through the rooms, being careful to touch _ 48_ , as they didnt want to hinder(

22、妨碍) the police in their search for_49_. It seemed as though everything she _50_ had been thrown out and turned over and over. Then a police officer arrived with a policeman and she told them of her _51_ of her robbed flat. The police officer began to look for fingerprints, while the policeman _52_ t

23、hat the front door locks had not been _53_, which proved that the thieves had either used some _54_ or entered over the balcony (阳台).

I give up. I hate this. This is stupid! It was at that moment when Jason, the adviser on the trip ,looked

28、 at me and said, Ed, Im going to go down and talk with her. I then shouted down to Alexis, Hold on! You can do this. We know you can !Jason grasped another rope, put this climbing harness(系带)on and began to move down the cliff. Within moments Jason was beside Alexis. She had her cheek directly again

29、st the face of the rock with her feet barely resting on a small piece of the cliff that jetted outward.Jason said to Alexis, I know that you have been on this cliff now for what seems like a long time. Your feet and fingers are cramping(痉挛)up and your forearms feel as though they are on fire. But, A

30、lexis, you are strong. Look how far up you are already. You have taken one of the more difficult parts up the cliff. Alexis, look at the path you have taken.At that moment, Alexis moved her cheek away from the rock face and looked down. The bright white chalk she used on her hands to give her a bett

31、er hold, showed the path where her tired hands had moved her upward on the cliff. Jason was right. Alexis had taken the hardest way up the cliff. Jason then looked straight into Alexis eyes and in a calm voice he said, You are not alone out here. There are people who care about you, who want to help

32、 you and see you succeed. We are going to do this together. Are you ready? Slowly she nodded and took a deep breath.56. Jason went down the cliff because _. A. Alexis took a wrong path B. Alexis was trapped in rocks C. Alexis didnt believe in herself D. Alexis forearms were badly hurt57. We can infe

33、r from the passage that _. A. Alexis was finally pulled up by Ed B. Alexis regretted having taken the wrong path up the cliff C. Alexis was immediately sent to hospital after she was pulled up D. Alexis successfully rock-climbed58. The underlined word hot in the story means _. A. disappointed B. ang

34、ry C. uncomfortable D. running a high body temperature59. Alexis would probably become _. A. more strong-minded B. easier to give up C. poorer in health D. less interested in rock-climbing( B )There are some steps you can take to prevent yourself from catching a cold. Opposite to popular belief, col

35、ds are not caused by terrible weather. Colds are caused by viruses in the body, and youre better off out skiing or even waiting for the bus on a snowy day than you are in a warm room with your friends, workmates, or fellow students, who just may be passing the virus around. If you feel a chill(寒战) w

36、hen youre coming down with a cold, youre already sick. A chill is an early symptom(症状): its the cold that caused the chill, not the other way around.While the virus can spread through droplets(飞沫) sent into the air when a cold-sufferer coughs or sneezes, surprisingly, this is not the most common way

37、 of transmission(传染). Many studies have now shown that the majority of colds are “caught” by hand touch. A cold-sufferer rubs her nose, therefore transferring the virus to her hand. Then a friend comes to visit. “Dont kiss me,” she warns, so the friend steps back and presses her hand. The friend the

38、n wipes her own nose or eye, and several days later is stricken with a cold. Or parents pick up their childs used tissues(面巾纸) and carefully throw them away, but fail to wash their hands afterward.Cold viruses also can be transferred to objects-telephones, cups, plates and virus on them remain for u

39、p to three hours. Frequent hand-washing-on the part of the cold sufferer as well as other family members -will reduce the spread of viruses in this way.60.According to the writer，we are most likely to catch a cold if we .A. go out on a terribly cold and windy day B. attend a party with a lot of peop

40、le C. stay long hours in the street on a snowy day D. go skiing or skating in the open air 61.From what the writer says, we can infer that “Terrible weather causes colds.” is .A. an out-of-date view of people in the past B. a fact already proven by doctorsC. only a supposing of doctorsD. still the v

41、iew held by many people62. Man is most likely to be stricken with a cold if .A. he visits his friend in a warm roomB. he often rubs his eyes or nose C. he shakes hands with a cold-suffererD. he fails to stop the cold viruses from spreading into the air63. The best title for this passage might be .A.

42、 Hand Touch and Transmission of VirusesB. The Spread of VirusesC. Colds and VirusesD. Ways to Avoid Colds( C )Perhaps the most famous theory, the study of body movement, was suggested by Professor Ray Birdwhistell. He believes that physical experience is often culturally programmed. In other words,

43、we learn outlooks-we are not born with them. A baby has generally informed face features. A baby, according to Birdwhistell, learns where to set the eyebrows by looking at those around- family and friends. This helps explain why the people of some areas of the US look so much alike. New Englanders o

44、r Southerners have certain common face features that cannot be explained by genetics (遗传学). The exact shape of the mouth is not set at birth, it is learned after. In fact, the final mouth shape is not formed until well after new teeth are set. For many, this can be well into grown-ups. A husband and

45、 wife together for a long time often come to look somewhat alike. We learn our looks from those around us. This is perhaps why in a single country there are areas where people smile most frequently. In New England they smile less, and in the western part of New York State still less. Many Southerner

46、s find cities such as New York cold and unfriendly, partly because people on Madison Avenue smile less than people on Peachtree Street in Atlanta, Georgia. People in largely populated areas also smile and greet each other in public less than people in small towns do.64. Ray Birdwhistell believes tha

47、t physical appearance _.A. has little to do with culture B. has much to do with cultureC. is ever changing D. is different from place to place65. According to the passage, the final mouth shape is formed _.A. before birth B. as soon as ones teeth are newly setC. sometime after new teeth are set D. a

48、round 15 years old66. Ray Birdwhistell can tell what area of the United States a person is from by _.A. how much he or she laughs B. how he or she raises his or her eyebrowsC. what he or she likes best D. the way he or she talks67. This passage might have been taken out of a book dealing with _.A. p

49、hysics B. chemistry C. biology D. none of the above( D )Testing has replaced teaching in most public schools. Pretests, drills, tests, and retests fill my own childrens school week. They know that the best way to read a textbook is to look at the questions at the end of the chapter and then skim the

50、 text for the answers. I believe that my daughter Eriea, who gets excellent marks, has never read a chapter of any of her school textbooks all the way through. And teachers are often heard to state proudly and openly that they teach to the mandated state test.Teaching to the test is a curious phenom

51、enon. Instead of deciding what skills students ought to learn, helping students learn them, and then using some sensible methods of assessment (评价) to discover whether students have mastered the skills, teachers are encouraged to reverse the process. First one looks at a test, which is intended for

52、money. Then one chooses the skills needed not to master reading, but to do well in the test. Finally, the test skills are taught.The ability to read or write or calculate might imply the ability to do reasonably well on standardized tests. However, neither reading nor writing develops simply through

53、 being taught to take tests. We must be careful to avoid mistaking preparation for a test of a skill with the acquisition(习得) of that skill. Too many discussions of basic skill make this misunderstanding because people are only interested in the test rather than concerned with the nature and quality

54、 of what is taught.Recently, many schools have faced what could be called the crisis of comprehension or, in simple terms, the phenomenon of students with grammar skills still being unable to understand what they read. These students are quite good at test taking and filling in workbooks. However, t

55、hey have little or no experience reading or thinking, and talking about what they read. They know the details but can t see or understand the whole. They are taught to be so concerned with grade that they have no time or ease of mind to think about meaning, and reread things if necessary.68. The aut

56、hor gives an account of Ericas performance in her study in order to show . A. her cleverness in test- takingB. the incompetence of teachersC. there is something wrong with the current practice in teachingD. the best way to read textbooks69. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.

57、The phenomenon of teaching to the test has aroused curiosity in many educators.B. Skills in general are not only useless but often mislead students.C. Ability to read and write is one thing, and ability to do well on standardized tests is quite another.D. Preparation for test of a skill does not nec

58、essarily mean the acquisition of that skill.70. The author insists that .A. mandated state tests be replaced by some more sensible methods of assessmentB. teachers pay more attention to the nature and quality of what is taughtC. students not be concerned with grades but do more reading and thinkingD

59、. main changes be brought about in the general teaching71. By “crisis of comprehension” the author means many students .A. are too much concerned with gradesB. fail to understand the real goal of educationC. lack proper practice in grammar drillsD. are unable to understand what they read, though the

60、y do reasonably well on standardized tests( E )Some animals have organs in their bodies that produce light. When it is dark, they flash their lights on and off to signal to others of their species, to lure (attract) prey toward them, or to escape from predators(食肉动物). Some fish are found to produce

61、light in the blackness of the sea. When night falls over the Red Sea, tiny flashlight fish rise to the surface for food, each with a pair of “headlamps,” one beneath each eye. With the light produced by bacteria living there, they communicate with other flash light fish to avoid getting too close to

62、 each other, so that the fish may spread out evenly to get enough food. And if a flash light fish is threatened by a predator, it swims away in a zigzag path, flashing its light on and off very quickly to confuse the animal pursuing(追击) it. Certain land animals can also produce light. Fireflies, sma

63、ll beetles that live in many warmer parts of the world, use light to attract a mate. After darkness falls in some parts of North America, female fireflies gather on the ground. The males fly overhead, flashing light from the undersides of the their bodies. As there are a number of species of firefly

64、, the males of each kind flash their own particular signal. Recognizing the flashing code of her own species, a female signals back to the male , and he lands beside her. On land as in the sea, living lights can be deceiving. When they are hungry, some female fireflies lure the males of other specie

65、s to them: they flash a false red when these males signal overhead, but eat them when they land.72. Which of the following is the best title for the article?A. Mating of flashlight Fish and FirefliesB. Darkness and Light C. Living Lights and Animal CommunicationD. Life on Land and in the Sea73. Flas

66、hlight fish in the Red Sea give out light at night_.A. when they come out for foodB. as they try to look for their companionsC. because they want to get rid of the bacteriaD. so that they can get close to other flashlight fish74. According to the passage, NEITHER flashlight fish NOR fireflies send o

67、ut light to _. A. attract a mate B. lure their prey C. escape from their enemies D. find their way home75. which of the following statements about fireflies is true?A. All kinds of fireflies use the same signals.B. Fireflies use their headlamps to communicate.C. Male fireflies may deceive females wi

68、th false signals.D. Female fireflies respond from the ground to males signals.第II卷第一节 短文改错（满分10分）（安徽学生做） 此题要求改正所给短文中的错误。对标有题号的每一行作出判断：如无错误，在该行右边横线上画一个勾（）；如有错误（每行只有一个错误），则按下列情况改正： 此行多一个词：把多余的词用斜线（）划掉，在该行右边横线上写出该词，并也用斜线划掉。 此行缺一个词：在缺词处加一个漏字符号（），在该行右边横线上写出该加的词。 此行错一个词：在错的词下划一横线，在该行右边横线上写出改正后的词。 注意：原行没有错
