When I looked out at the white blanket 【1 covered the ground, I couldn’t help but smile a bit. It was so beautiful. It softened the bare trees and hid the dead grass. In the 2 (distant), I could hear the sound of the snow falling on the road, the barking of a happy dog, and the laughter of children playing outside, enjoying their day off from school.

The sweet music of that laughter 3 (bring) back a hundred memories of past winters. I remembered 4(catch) snowflakes on my tongue, building snowmen, making snow angels, sledding down hills, and always losing the snowball fights with first 5 brothers and then my own children. Standing there in that warm coat of remembering made the wind 6 (little) cold. I looked up, stuck out my tongue, and 7 the first time in years caught a snowflake on it. It tasted so fresh 8 clean. It tasted like youth, like joy, and like love. I looked up to the heavens and thanked God for all of my memories and for the simple 9 (true) that you are never 【10 old to be young again.

【答案】

【1that

【2distance

【3】brought

【4】catching

【5】my

【6】less

【7】for

【8and

【9truth

【10】too

【解析】

试题分析:

【1】that 考查定语从句。这个定语从句的先行词是the white blanket,关系代词that指代先行词在句中充当主语。句意:当我朝外面看着覆盖大地的白色毯子的时候,我情不自禁地笑了起来。

【2distance 考查名词。定冠词the后面要接名词,一起充当介词in的宾语。介词短语in the distance在远方。

【3】brought 考查时态。本文通篇都使用一般过去时对过去发生的事情进行描述。所以本句中也使用过去式bought。

【4】catching 考查动词用法。动词短语remember doing sth记得做过某事;我记得用舌头接雪花,堆雪人等等。

【5】my 考查代词。句意:我打雪仗总是输掉,先输给我的哥哥们,然后输给我自己的孩子们。本句中my修饰brothers,指我先输给自己的哥哥们。

【6】less 考查比较级。句意:想起温暖的回忆站在那里让寒风也不那么寒冷了。根据句意可知使用比较级的形式,little的比较级是less。

【7】for 考查固定搭配。短语for the first time第一次。句意:我抬头,伸出舌头,多年以来第一次品尝雪花。本句中介词短语for the first time在句中充当时间状语。

【8】and 考查连词。句意:雪花尝起来如此新鲜和干净。本句中形容词fresh和clean是并列关系,所以使用并列连词and连接这两个形容词。

【9】truth 考查名词。本句中形容词simple后面要接名词。句意:我抬头看着天空感谢上帝赐予我如此多的回忆并告诉我这个简单的真理:我的年纪很大了以及不在年轻了。

【10】too 考查固定结构。固定结构结构too...to...太而...不能...;实际上当该短语翻译成“...太而...不能...”时,句意不顺。它就有另外一层含义“非常....”。句意:我抬头看着天空感谢上帝赐予我如此多的回忆并告诉我这个简单的真理:我的年纪很大了以及不在年轻了。

【题目】Nowadays the U.S. students are sleepy in school because they spend too much time texting, playing video games, watching TV and using the media in other ways.

“Heavy media use interferes with sleep by reducing sleep duration, making it harder to fall asleep, and lowering sleep quality,” Meilan Zhang, an assistant professor at the University of Texas at El Paso, wrote in her research review in the journal, Sleep Medicine.

But the relationship between youth’s media use and sleep is not so simple, said Michael Gradisar, who authored both that review and the Sleep Medicine meta-analysis. “Technology use is the new evidence when we are trying to answer ‘Why are school-age children sleeping less?’” said Mr. Gradisar, an associate professor of psychology at Flinders University in Adelaide, Australia.

There may be safe limits to technology use, Mr. Gradisar stated. For instance, recent research results indicate that using a bright screen for an hour before bed or even playing violent video games for less than that will not necessarily interfere with teenagers’ sleep, he wrote.

But longer periods of usage can be harmful to sleep, Mr. Gradisar added. Rather than delaying school start times, he said, the first step should be educating parents about limiting the hours that their children are using technology before bed, and enforcing a consistent bedtime.

Early school start times are also commonly blamed for students’ sleepiness, especially for adolescents. Secondary schools around the nation and the world have been delaying start times, often with positive results.

Mr. Minnich of the TIMSS and PIRLS International Study Center hesitated to put blame to any particular factor. But he did think that cost-saving measures to consolidate(合并)bus routes might help explain U.S. students’ sleepiness.

“For those children who board the bus first, they must get up earlier, may end up sleeping on the way to school, and may end up arriving at school sleepy.” he said.

【1】Which of the following may be the good way to help kids sleep better?

A. Parents should be well educated.

B. Technology is forbidden at home.

C. Their playing time must be limited.

D. They are allowed to go to school early.

【2】What would be the factors that cause kids sleep troubles according to the text

a. Using the media.

b. Having breakfast.

c. Catching the bus.

d. The school timetable.

e. Doing too much homework.

A. a, d, e B. b, c, d

C. a, c, d D. b, d, e

【3】Which of the following may be the best title for the text?

A. Kids benefit a lot from technology.

B. Several sleep troubles appear at school.

C. Some tips can help kids sleep well.

D. Several factors affect kids’ sleep.

【题目】The human body is designed to move. But modern lifestyles and office jobs rarely give us the chance to move around. As we know,we're while we're eating; we sit in the car and we sit while we watch TV. And many of us sit for many hours at work.

New research shows that sitting less than three hours a day might extend your life by two years. Peter Smith, a scientist at the University of Louisiana in the southern United States, says that sitting is ubiquitous in our lives, meaning it is something we do all the time, everywhere.

However, Mr. Smith says that does not mean you can sit for the rest of your waking hours. He also says you may exercise often, “We can't throw away physical activity. It's extremely important. We have 60 years of research showing us that.”

Mr. Smith and his colleagues are part of a new generation of researchers studying how sitting all day affects length of life. “Studies that have assessed the relationship between sitting and mortality(死亡率)or television viewing and mortality are very rare. There's only been a few of them, actually five or six now, in the last four or five years.” They found that cutting television time to less than two hours a day could add one-point four years to life.

Luckily, change is already coming to some offices, especially in the design of desks. A “standing desk” lets people stand while they work. Another new design is called the “treadmill desk.” A treadmill is an exercise machine that lets you walk in one place. Even some U.S. schools are beginning to experiment with desks that are part bicycle to keep children moving. That's one of the strategies that many companies are using now.

Mr. Smith also says studying this problem has inspired his team to make a few changes in their own lives.

【1】The underlined word “ubiquitous” is closest in meaning to________.

A.dangerous B. awkward

C.comfortable D. common

【2】Which view agrees with the opinion of Mr. Smith?

A. Sitting too long may help increase one's life.

B.Exercise is important and don't sit too long.

C.Watching TV is bad, but can broaden one's horizons.

D.Stopping watching TV is a necessary but hard task.

【3】What does Mr. Smith think of his study in Paragraph 4?

A.It's a relatively new area of study.

B.It's a hot subject studied by experts.

C.It's a study that begins too late.

D.It's not ignored by many experts.

【4】Why are the desks of all kinds designed for those who sit more?

A.To give them more comfort.

B.To improve their work efficiency.

C.To offer them the chance to exercise.

D.To seek pleasure while working.

【题目】Most mornings, the line begins to form at dawn: scores of silent women with babies on their backs, buckets balanced on their heads, and in each hand a bright-blue plastic jug. On good days, they will wait less than an hour before a water tanker goes across the dirt path that serves as a road in Kesum Purbahari, a slum on the southern edge of New Delhi. On bad days, when there is no electricity for the pumps, the tankers don’t come at all. “That water kills people,” a young mother named Shoba said one recent Saturday morning, pointing to a row of pails filled with thick, caramel (焦糖)-colored liquid. “Whoever drinks it will die.” The water was from a pipe shared by thousands of people in the poor neighborhood. Women often use it to wash clothes and bathe their children, but nobody is desperate enough to drink it.

There is no standard for how much water a person needs each day, but experts usually put the minimum at fifty liters. The government of India promises (but rarely provides) forty. Most people drink two or three liters—less than it takes to wash a toilet. The rest is typically used for cooking and bathing. Americans consume between four hundred and six hundred liters of water each day, more than any other people on earth. Most Europeans use less than half that. The women of Kesum Purbahari each hoped to drag away a hundred liters that day—two or three buckets’ worth. Shoba has a husband and five children, and that much water doesn’t go far in a family of seven, particularly when the temperature reaches a hundred and ten degrees before noon. She often makes up the difference with bottled water, which costs more than water delivered any other way. Sometimes she just buys milk; it’s cheaper. Like the poorest people everywhere, the people of New Delhi’s slums spend a far greater percentage of their incomes on water than anyone lucky enough to live in a house connected to a system of pipes.

1The underlined word “slum” most likely means ______.

A. a village

B. a small town

C. a poor area of a town with badly-built, over-crowded buildings

D. the part of a town that lacks water

2Sometimes the water tanker doesn’t come because ______.

A. the weather is bad

B. there is no electricity

C. there is no water

D. people don’t want the dirty water

3Which of the following statements is wrong?

A. water is the biggest expense for people in New Delhis slums

B. Shoba has a family of seven people

C. in Kesum Purbahari milk is cheaper than bottled water

D. Americans uses the largest amount of water each day

4The passage mainly tells us ______.

A. how women in Kesum Purbahari gets their water

B. how much water a day a person deeds

C. that India lacks water badly

D. how India government manages to solve the problem of water
