10、em.As he was purchasing it,the salesgirl said,“Uh,look,the game box havent even been opened yet.That might be worth some money.”Peter examined the box,and sure enough,it was completely covered in factory-sealed plastic.And he saw a date of 1973 on the back of the box.“You should put that up for auct

11、ion(拍卖)on the Internet,and see what happens.”the salesgirl said.“Yes,youre right.People like something rare.”Peter agreed,“I cant imagine there being very many unopened boxes of this game still around 40 years later.”“Dont forget to tell me if you sell it.”the salesgirl smiled.“No problem.”Peter sai

12、d.After he got home,Peter went online to several auction websites looking for his game.But he couldnt find it.Then he typed in the name of the word game and hit Search.The search result was 543 websites containing information about the changes of the game.Over the years,the game had been produced us

13、ing letters in different sizes and game boards in different colors.He also found some lists of game fans looking for various versions of the game.Peter emailed some of them,telling them what he had.Two weeks later,Peter went back to the shop.“Hello.Do you still remember the unopened word game?”The s

14、alesgirl looked at him for a second,then recognized him and said,“Oh,hi!”“Ive got something for you,”Peter said.“I sold the game and made$1,000.Thank you for your suggestion.”He handed her three$100 bills.“Wow!”the salesgirl cried out.“Thank you,I never expected it.”21.Which of the following best de

16、valuable.C.Classic and attractive.D.Colorful and interesting23.What happened at the end of the story?A.Peter gave the girl$300 as a reward.B.The salesgirl became Peters friend.C.Peter returned the word game for$1,000.D.The salesgirl felt confused to see Peter again.24.What is the main theme of the s

17、tory?A.Its important to keep a promise.B.Its great to share in other peoples happiness.C.We should be grateful for the help from others.D.Something rare is worth a large amount of money.BFor centuries,the common view of how domestication(训化)had occurred was that prehistoric people,realizing how usef

18、ul it would be to have animals kept for food,began catching wild animals and breeding(繁殖)them.Over time,by allowing only animals with“tame”（驯养）characteristics to produce their babies,human beings created animals that were less wild and more dependent upon people.Eventually this process led to the do

19、mestic farm animals and pets that we know today,having lost their ancient survival skills and natural abilities.Recent research suggests that this view of domestication is incomplete.Prehistoric human beings did catch and breed useful wild animals,but specialists in animal behavior now think that do

20、mestication was not simply something people did to animalsthe animals played an active part in the process.Wolves and wild horses,for example,may have taken the first steps in their own domestication by hanging around human settlements,feeding on peoples crops and getting used to human activity.The

21、animals which were not too nervous or fearful to live near people produced their babies that also tolerated humans,making it easier for people to catch and breed them.In this version,people succeeded in domesticating only animals that had already adapted easily to life around humans.Domestication re

22、quired an animal that was willing to become domestic.The process was more like a dance with partners than a victory of humans over animals.At first glance,the taming of cats seems to fit nicely into this new story of domestication.A traditional theory says that after prehistoric people in Egypt inve

23、nted agriculture and started farming,rats and mice gathered to feast on their stored grain.Wildcats,in turn,gathered at the same places to hunt and eat the rats and mice.Over time,cats got used to people and people got used to cats.Some studies of wildcats,however,seem to call this theory into quest

24、ion.Wildcats dont share hunting and feeding areas,and they dont live close to people.Experts do not know whether wildcats were partners in their own domestication.They do know that long after people had acquired domestic dogs,sheep and horses,they somehow acquired domestic cats.Gradually they produc

25、ed animals with increasingly tame qualities.25.What is suggested in recent research?A.Animals were less afraid than thought.B.Animals had an active role in their domestication.C.Wolves and horses were the first to be domesticated.D.Domestication meant something people did to animals.26.The word“danc

26、e”is used in Paragraph 3 to show that _.A.animals and humans were close B.control over animals was easyC.animals were independent of humans D.domestication was like a game27.What probably attracted cats to human settlements?A.Other cats.B.Warmth.C.Humans.D.Food.28.What causes a problem for the theor

27、y that cats were domesticated like wolves were?A.Cats were not friendly to people.B.Cats were not as fierce as wolves.C.Cats had the characteristic of independence.D.Cats showed cleverness when they were hunting.CDaniel Anderson,a famous psychologist,believes its important to distinguish televisions

28、 influences on children from those of the family.We tend to blame TV,he says,for problems it doesnt really cause,overlooking our own roles in shaping childrens minds.One traditional belief about television is that it reduces a childs ability to think and to understand the world.While watching TV,chi

29、ldren do not merely absorb words and images(影像).Instead,they learn both explicit and hidden meanings from what they see.Actually,children learn early the psychology of characters in TV shows.Furthermore,as many teachers agree,children understand far more when parents watch TV with them,explaining ne

30、w words and ideas.Yet,most parents use an educational program as a chance to park their kids in front of the set and do something in another room.Another argument against television is that it replaces reading as a form of entertainment.But according to Anderson,the amount of time spent watching tel

31、evision is not related to reading ability.TV doesnt take the place of reading for most children;it takes the place of similar sorts of recreation,such as listening to the radio and playing sports.Things like parents educational background have a stronger influence on a childs reading.“A childs readi

32、ng ability is best predicted by how much a parent reads.”Anderson says.Traditional wisdom also has it that heavy television-watching lowers IQ scores and affects school performance.But here,too,Anderson notes that no studies have proved it.In fact,research suggests that its the other way around.“If

33、youre smart young,youll watch less TV when youre older,”Anderson says.Yet,people of lower IQ tend to be lifelong television viewers.For years researchers have attempted to show that television is dangerous to children.However,by showing that television promotes none of the dangerous effects as conve

34、ntionally believed,Anderson suggests that television cannot be condemned without considering other influences.29.By watching TV,children learn _.A.images through wordsB.more than explicit meaningsC.more about images than wordsD.little about peoples psychology30.An educational program is best watched

35、 by a child _.A.on his ownB.with other kidsC.with his parentsD.with his teachers31.Anderson believed that _.A.the more a child watches TV,the smarter he isB.the younger a child is,the more he watches TVC.the smarter a child is,the less likely he gets addicted to TVD.the less a child watches TV,the b

36、etter he performs at school32.What is the main purpose of the passage?A.To advise on the educational use of TV.B.To describe TVs harmful effects on children.C.To explain traditional views on TV influences.D.To present Andersons unconventional ideas.DThe aggressive spread of market economics and comm

37、unication technologiesoften under the control of Western multinational companiesbrings new challenges to local cultures and values in non-Western societies.Sometimes it seems as if a tidal wave of the worst Western culture is creeping across the globe like a giant strawberry milkshake spill out and

38、over the planet,with a flavor that is distinctly sweet,sickly and apparently homogeneous(同质的).高三英语 周日测试 7第页共 4 页3For some,especially the young,change may mean escape from oppressive traditions.It may also bring new opportunities for cultures to be combined in creative ways.However,there is genuine c

39、ause for concern about the rate at which cultures are being worn away in such a globalized world.Perhaps by far the most important far-reaching effect of cultural globalization is the commercialization of culture,which has a disturbing impact on local peoples existing values.They are increasingly bo

40、mbarded with new images,new music,new clothes and new values.The familiar and old are to be abandoned.While there was cultural change long before globalization,there is a danger that much will be lost simply because it is not valued by global markets.In West Africa for example,traditional values hav

41、e been overtaken by Coca-Cola culture which the local people dont yet have the values to deal with successfully.Another common aspect of the globalized culture is that it pursues the same one size fits all American ideal.The result of this cultural process of homogenization is that a large section o

42、f the worlds population dreams of living like Cosby&Co.or like the characters in any other stereotype American soap opera.In addition,the dream of living a better life causes thousands of people to move to already overcrowded cities whose population has boomed by millions within the last decades.The

43、 majority of these new immigrants end up in slums leading to poverty,pollution and misery.Such gradual aggression against peoples existing values and cultures has a destructive impact on their sense of who they are,what they want and what they respect.It attacks spiritual values and faith traditions

44、.The accumulative(累积的)effect in non-Western societies is a crisis of cultural confidence,combined with the increased economic uncertainty and crime which global integration(一体化)may bring.This creates real problems for social stability,whether it is at the level of nation,community or family.In concl

45、usion,cultural globalization,or worldwide McDonaldization,destroys diversity and displaces the opportunity to sustain decent life through a mixture of many different cultures.It is more a consequence of power concentration in the global media and manufacturing companies than the peoples own wish to

46、abandon their cultural identity and diversity.33.It can be learned from Paragraph 1 that _.A.non-Western societies willingly accept economic globalizationB.Western culture unites the worlds economies and technologiesC.the booming of Western culture destroys non-Western societiesD.despite its appeal,

47、westernization shows an unpleasant uniformity34.What is the writers attitude towards cultural globalization?A.Cautious.B.Critical.C.Positive.D.Neutral.35.The passage is mainly about _.A.cultural diversity in globalization B.challenges to non-Western culturesC.drawbacks of cultural globalization D.di

50、 is associated with understanding speech,especially when there is background noise.Then a research,by a team at the Rotman Research Institute in Toronto,looked at how adults were affected as they aged.They chose both musicians and non-musicians from the age of 18 to 91 and divided them into differen

51、t groups based on the age.Again musicians were significantly better at picking out speech against noise in all the age ranges._38_ Benjamin Zendel,who was part of the research team,said,“We found that being a musician may contribute to better hearing in old age,probably due to musicians using their

52、hearing systems at a high level on a regular basis.This advantage widened considerably for musicians as they got older when compared to similar-aged non-musicians.”This study suggests that musicians might be more able to deal with the consequences of hearing loss._39_ As Dr.Ralph Holme said,all peop
