While there, the boy and his cousins took turns chatting with Santa, sharing their Christmas desires. After telling the man in red he wanted a Wii, a toy dinosaur and a remote control car, Landon hopped off Santas lap to rejoin his family. But a few moments later, he raced back to Santas side: hed forgotten to tell him something important. Specifically, Landon shared his worry with Santa that his autism (自闭症) would land him on the “naughty list”His mom, Naomi Johnson, explained to WOODTV this week that Landon is often told hes “naughty” by people who mistake his autism for bad behavior. “You get the stares when youre at the grocery store if hes too loud，” Johnson said. “Hes been told by other people before, You dont need to be so naughty， or Why are you naughty？”Johnson says Santa took the time to listen to Landons worries, and held the boys hands all the while. “Santa sat him next to him and took Landons hands in his and started rubbing them, calming them down. Santa asked Landon if it bothered him, having Autism? Landon said yes, sometimes. Then Santa told him it shouldnt. It shouldnt bother him to be who he is，” Johnson said.Landon told Santa that he sometimes “gets in trouble at school and its hard for people to understand that he has autism”， but that hes “not a naughty boy”“You know I love you and the reindeer love you and its OK. Youre a good boy，” Santa told WOODTV about the chat with Landon. “Youre a good boy, you know.”Johnson said she was incredibly moved by Santas thoughtful words. “This stranger in a red suit told my son the same message Ive been trying to get through to him for a while now that hes special and I love him just the way he was made，” the mom told T. “Seeing Landons face light up in that moment was just incredible. I couldnt stop crying. He was the real Santa Claus.”语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。Landon是个患有自闭症的孩子，于是经常被认为是“淘气的孩子”，他因此很苦恼。在一次和圣诞老人聊天时，圣诞老人告诉他不必烦恼，要做自己。Landon听后面露喜色。1What did Landon do after he raced back to Santa?AHe shared Christmas desires with Santa.BHe checked if he was the real Santa Claus.CHe told Santa how his autism had bothered him.DHe asked for a toy dinosaur and a remote control car.解析：选C细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句可知，Landon飞奔到圣诞老人那里，和他分享了自己的烦恼，即他的自闭症。故选C。2.

Benjamin Franklin, whose picture is on the US 100dollar note, was appointed to prepare the Declaration that was eventually signed by the other founding fathers.Franklin was born in 1706 in Boston to a soap maker named Josiah Franklin. His father could not afford full schooling for all his children, but Benjamin loved books and worked in his elder brothers printing business before starting a newspaper called the Pennsylvania Gazette in 1729. He wrote and drew cartoons for the newspaper. In addition, he worked to improve living conditions in the city: introducing street lights, cleaning the roads and building libraries. In the 1740s, Franklin retired from his newspaper and turned to science with great success. He was a very smart man and his work on electricity, including the “kite experiment” which confirmed the nature of lightning, made him famous throughout the world.Franklin earned the title of the “First American” for his efforts to unite the 13 American states, and to win their independence. This part of the story starts in London. He was sent to the city to persuade the British to treat the American states more fairly. It was here that he began interacting with important political thinkers and activists of the time and developing his own political ideas.Following his return to America in 1761 he became much more active in American politics and in the battle against British rule.After the United States of America was established, Franklin held several important positions such as the first United States Postmaster General, Ambassador to France and President of Pennsylvania. He is also famous today for his wise sayings, including “a penny saved is a penny earned” and “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure”语篇解读：本文是一篇人物传记，主要讲述了美国开国元勋之一Benjamin Franklin一生中的重大事件，尤其是他对美国社会政治发展方面所做出的杰出贡献以及在其他领域取得的成绩。5What is the article mainly about?AThe American Declaration of Independence.BFranklins contributions to American society.CThe American War of Independence.DBenjamin Franklins early life.解析：选B主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了美国开国元勋Benjamin Franklin对美国社会发展所做出的巨大贡献。故B项正确。6How did Franklin begin developing his own political thinking?ABy discussing ideas with political activists in Britain.BBy persuading the 13 American states to unite.CBy fighting against British rule in America.DBy writing articles for his own newspaper.解析：选A细节理解题。根据第四段可知，Franklin被派往伦敦以劝服英国人更公平地对待美国；结合关键句可知，Franklin通过在伦敦和政治思想家、积极分子交流形成了自己的政治理念。故A项正确。7What can be inferred about Franklin from the article?AHis most important contribution was in science.BHe was the leader of the “founding fathers”CHe was successful in many different areas.DHe came from a very wealthy family.解析：选C推理判断题。根据第三、四段可知，Franklin在文化、科学、政治等诸多领域都取得了成功。故C项正确。8What is the correct order for the following events from Franklins life?aHe started a newspaper business.bHe carried out the kite experience on electricity.cHe worked for his brother in a printing company.dHe was appointed the Ambassador to France.eHe helped write the Declaration of Independence.fHe visited England to discuss independence.Ae，c，a，b，f，dBc，a，b，f，e，dCa，c，f，b，d，e Df，d，a，b，c，e解析：选B事件排序题。根据第三段可知，他最先在哥哥的印刷厂工作，然后于1729年创建了一份报纸；接下来在18世纪40年代(1740s)成功完成风筝实验；而后在美国独立之前他被派去英国谈判；之后帮助起草独立宣言；在美国独立之后成为驻法国大使，所以正确顺序应为c，a，b，f，e，d。故B项正确。C(2017江西省百校联盟高三第一次联考试题)“Food in France is still primarily about pleasure，” says Mark Singer, technical director of cuisine at Le Cordon Bleu in Paris. “Cooking and eating are both pastimes (消遣) and pleasure.” The French might start their day with bread, butter, jam, and perhaps something hot to drink its a time of the day when the whole family can be united. Singer, born in Philadelphia, has lived in France for more than 40 years.“Although things have changed greatly in the past 20 years when it comes to food in the country，” he says, “and what was a big affair with eating has been slowly softened up, there are still events in the year, like birthdays and New Years Eve and Christmas Eve that are still really anchored in traditional food and cooking. But its not every day.”Some people think French food life may be a performance,_adds Jennifer Berg, director of graduate food studies at New York University. “They want to believe that France is this nation where people are spending five hours a day going to 12 different markets to get their food. The reality is most croissants (羊角面包) are factorymade, and most people are buying convenience food, except for the very small group of people in high society. But part of our identity relies on believing that myth.” In Italy, as in France, takeout is still relatively rare. “Eating fast is not at all part of our culture，” says Marco Bolasco, editorial director of Slow Food and an Italian food expert. Our meals are relaxed, even during a lunch break. Food in Italy is love, and nutrition, and pleasure, he says. An Italian childs first experience with food is not small round cakes or rice or eggs, but probably ice cream, notes Bolasco. Status and wealth play less of a role in food.语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。作者通过专家的话语来说明法国人和意大利人对于食物是一种享受生活的态度。9How have things about French food changed?APeople prefer to cook at home.BMore people choose to eat out.CTraditional food is less frequently cooked.DPeople eat faster than before.解析：选C推理判断题。根据第二段的内容可知，法国传统美食受到冲击，人们只是偶尔在重大节日中才去享用传统美食，并不是每一天，故选择C。10What does the underlined word “performance” in Paragraph 3 refer to?AA bother. BA play.CA hobby. DA routine.解析：选A词义猜测题。由后文中的“people are spending five hours a day going to 12 different markets to get their food”可知，此处应是指部分人认为法国传统烹饪比较繁琐。故此处performance指“麻烦”。故选A。11Why is Italian food compared with French food in the last paragraph?ATo show the advantages of Italian food.BTo prove the differences between them.CTo reflect the customs of Italian food.DTo indicate the common points of the two.解析：选D推理判断题。由本段中的“In Italy, as in France”，再结合第一段中的“Food in France is still primarily about pleasure”和最后一段中的“Food in Italy is love, and nutrition, and pleasure”可知，作者比较这两种食物的目的是找出二者的共同点，阐明主旨，故选D。12Whats the main idea of the passage?AFood as identity. BFood as pleasure.CFood as survival. DFood as status.解析：选B文章大意题。由文中的“Food in France is still primarily about pleasure”，“Cooking and eating are both pastimes (消遣) and pleasure.”以及“Food in Italy is love, and nutrition, and pleasure”可知答案。DA new collection of photos brings an unsuccessful Antarctic voyage back to life.Frank Hurleys pictures would be outstanding undoubtedly firstrate photojournalism if they had been made last week. In fact, they were shot from 1914 through 1916, most of them after a disastrous shipwreck (海难), by a cameraman who had no reasonable expectation of survival. Many of the images were stored in an ice chest, under freezing water, in the damaged wooden ship.The ship was the Endurance, a small, tight, Norwegianbuilt threemaster that was intended to take Sir Ernest Shackleton and a small crew of seamen and scientists, 27 men in all, to the southernmost shore of Antarcticas Weddell Sea. From that point Shackleton wanted to force a passage by dog sled (雪橇) across the continent. The journey was intended to achieve more than what Captain Robert Falcon Scott had done. Captain Scott had reached the South Pole early in 1912 but had died with his four companions on the march back.As writer Caroline Alexander makes clear in her forceful and wellresearched story The Endurance, adventuring was even then a thoroughly commercial effort. Scotts last journey, completed as he lay in a tent dying of cold and hunger, caught the worlds imagination, and a film made in his honor drew crowds. Shackleton, a onetime British merchantnavy officer who had got to within 100 miles of the South Pole in 1908, started a business before his 1914 voyage to make money from movie and still photography. Frank Hurley, a confident and gifted Australian photographer who knew the Antarctic, was hired to make the images, most of which have never before been published.语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。1914年到1916年间，一群海员和科学家踏上了南极探险之路。结果他们在回来的路上发生海难，其中一名摄影师在临死之前拍摄了大量的照片，并把照片封存在破损的木船的冰块箱里。通过这些照片我们可以了解到那次不太成功的探险经历。13What do we know about the photos taken by Hurley?AThey were made last week.BThey showed undersea sceneries.CThey were found by a cameraman.DThey recorded a disastrous adventure.解析：选D细节理解题。根据第二段中的第二句可知，这些照片记录了一次灾难性的冒险，故选D项。14Who reached the South Pole first according to the text?AFrank Hurley. BErnest Shackleton.CRobert Falcon Scott. DCaroline Alexander.解析：选C推理判断题。根据第三段可知，被发现的照片所展示的这次旅行是为了获得比Robert Falcon Scott船长先前的探险更大的收获，该船长在1912年就到达了南极。由此推断Robert Falcon Scott是最先到达南极的人，故选C项。15What does Alexander think was the purpose of the 1914 voyage?AArtistic creation. BScientific research.CMoney making. DTreasure hunting.解析：选C细节理解题。根据最后一段可知这个作家在她的小说The Endurance中说，在那时，探险就已经是纯商业活动(a thoroughly commercial effort)了，因此1914年航行的目的是赚钱(money making)，故选C项。.阅读七选五(2017潍坊4月模拟)Tips for Teaching Kids ResponsibilityYour best friend has a teenager who helps with housework without being asked.
