and you can go visit your mom things started well but just after eight o clock his three little good kids mike randy and alex came down the stairs in their night clothes and shouted breakfast daddy when food had not appeared within thirty seconds randy began using his spoon on alex s head as if it were a drum alex started to shout loudly in time to the beat of the drum mike chanted where s my toast where s my toast in the background brad realized his newspaper would have to wait for a few seconds life became worse after breakfast mike wore randy s underwear on his head randy locked himself in the bathroom while alex shouted again because he was going to wet his trousers nobody could find clean socks although they were before their very eyes someone named not me had spilled a whole glass of orange juice into the basket of clean clothes brad knew the talk show had already started by ten o clock things were out of control alex was wondering why the fish in the jar refused his bread and butter mike was trying to show off his talent by decorating the kitchen wall with his colour pencils randy thankfully appeared to be reading quietly in the family room but closer examination showed that he was eating apple jam straight from the bottle with his hands brad realized that the talk show was over and reading would be impossible at exactly 11 17 brad called the daycare centre i

had to go to his office d because he found it hard to manage his boys home 49 this text is developed a by space b by comparison c by time d by process b you ve just come home after living abroad for a few years since you ve been away has this country changed for the better or for the worse if you ve just arrived back in the uk after a fortnight s holiday small changes have probably surprised you anything from a local greengrocer suddenly being replaced by a mobile phone shop to someone in your street moving house so how have things changed to people coming back to britain after seven ten or even 15 years living abroad what changes in society can they see that the rest of us have hardly noticed or now take for granted 认为理所当然 to find out we asked some people who recently returned debi when we left cheltenham my home town was a town of white middle class families all very conservative the town is now home to many eastern europeans and lots of australians who come here mainly to work in hotels and tourism there are even several shops only for foreigners having been an immigrant myself i admire people who go overseas to find a job maybe if i lived in an inner city where unemployment was high i d think differently but i believe foreign settlers have improved this country because they re more open minded and often work harder than the natives christine as we flew home over britain both of us felt how green everything looked but the differences between the place we d left behind and the one we returned to were brought sharply into focus as soon as we landed to see policemen with guns in the airport for the first time was frightening in cyprus they re very relaxed and i got pulled over by customs officers just for taking a woolen sweater with some metal made buttons out of my case in the arrivals hall everyone seemed to be on guard even the airport car hire firm wanted a credit card rather than cash because they said their vehicles had been used by bank robbers but anyway this is still a green beautiful country i just wish more people would appreciate what they ve got 50 after a short overseas holiday people tend to a notice small changes b expect small changes c welcome small changes d need small changes 51 how does debi look at the foreign settlers a cautiously b positively c sceptically 怀疑地 d negatively 52 when arriving at the airport in britain christine was shocked by a the relaxed policemen b the messy arrivals hall c the tight security d the bank robbers 53 which might be the best title for the passage a life in britain b back in britain c britain in future d britain in memory c harvard researchers have created a tough low cost biodegradable 可生物降解的 material inspired by insects hard outer shells the material s inventors say it has a number of possible uses and someday could provide a more environmentally friendly alternative 替代物 to plastic the material made from shrimp 虾 shells and proteins produced from silk is called shrilk it is thin clear flexible and strong a major benefit of the material is its biodegradability plastic s toughness and flexibility represented a revolution in materials science during the 1950s and 60s decades later however plastic s very durability 耐用性 is raising questions about how appropriate it is for one time products such as plastic bags or short lived consumer goods used in the home for a few years and then cast into a landfill where they will degrade for centuries what is the point of making something that lasts 1 000 years shrilk not only will degrade in a landfill but its basic components are used as fertilizer 肥料 and so will enrich the soil shrilk has great potential the inventors said materials from which it is made are plentiful in nature found in everything ranging from shrimp shells insect bodies to living plants that makes shrilk low cost and its mass production possible should it be used for products demanding a lot of material work on shrilk is continuing in the lab the inventors said the material becomes flexible when wet so they re exploring ways to use it in wet environments they re also developing simpler production processes which could be used for non medical products like for computer cases and other products inside the home they re even exploring combining it with other materials like carbon fibers to give it new qualities 54 what is mainly talked about in paragraph 2 a a major benefit of shrilk is its biodegradability b the advantages of plastics brought a revolution c it will take centuries for plastic products to degrade d it is unnecessary to make durable products for short use 55 according to the inventors shrilk has great potential partly because a it can help plastic degrade b it can be found in living things c its mass production has been realized d its raw materials are abundant in nature 56 what axe the inventors doing in the lab a replacing carbon fibers with shrilk b testing shrilk s use in wet conditions c making shrilk out of used household goods d improving shrilk s flexibility for medical purposes d do you know how it is when you see someone yawn and you start yawning too or how hard it is to be among people laughing and not laugh yourself well apparently it s because we have mirror neurons 神经元 in our brains put simply the existence of mirror neurons suggests that every time we see someone else do something our brains imitate 模仿 it whether or not we actually perform the same action this explains a great deal bout how we learn to smile talk walk dance or play sports but the idea goes further mirror neurons not only appear to explain physical actions they also tell us that there is a biological basis for the way we understand other people mirror neurons can undoubtedly be found all over our brains but especially in the areas which relate to our ability to use languages and to understand how other people feel researchers have found that mirror neurons relate strongly to language a group of researchers discovered that if they gave people sentences to listen to for example the hand took hold of the ball the same mirror neurons were triggered as when the action was actually performed in this example actually taking hold of a ball any problems with mirror neurons may well result in problems with behavior much research suggests that people with social and behavioral problems have mirror neurons which are not fully functioning however it is not yet known exactly how these discoveries might help find treatments for social disorders research into mirror neurons seems to provide us with even more information concerning how humans behave and interact indeed it may turn out to be the equivalent 相等物 for neuroscience of what einstein s theory of relativity was for physics and the next time you feel the urge to cough in the cinema when someone else does well perhaps you ll understand why 57 mirror neurons can explain a why we cry when we are hurt b why we cough when we suffer from a cold c why we smile when we see someone else smile d why we yawn when we see someone else stay up late 58 the underlined word triggered in the third paragraph probably means a set off b cut off c built up d broken up 59 we can learn from the passage that mirror neurons a relate to human behavior and interaction b control human physical actions and feelings c result in bad behavior and social disorders d determine our knowledge and language abilities 60 what is the passage mainly about a ways to find mirror neurons b problems of mirror neurons c existence of mirror neurons d functions of mirror neurons 第二节 阅读下面文章并根据题目要求回答问题 high school dropouts 辍学者 earn an average of 9 000 less per year than graduates now a new study moves away a common belief why they quit it s much more than failing in exams at school society tends to think of high school dropouts as kids who just can t do it they are lazy and perhaps not too bright so researchers were surprised when they asked more than 450 kids who had quit school about why they left the vast majority actually had passing grades and they were confident that they could have graduated from high school john bridgeland the executive researcher said about one million teens leave school each year only about half of african american and hispanic students will receive a diploma and actually all dropouts come to regret their decision so if failing grades don t explain why these kids quit what does the most dependable finding was that they were bored said john bridgeland they found classes uninteresting they didn t see any direct connection between what they were learning in the classroom and their own lives or ambition the study found that most teens who do drop out wait until they are 16 because most states allow students to quit at that age in the us only one state new mexico has a law requiring teenagers to stay in high school until they graduate only four states require school attendance until age 18 no exceptions another researcher says raising the compulsory attendance age may be one way to keep more kids in school as these dropouts look back they realize they ve made a mistake so if anything can give these people an extra push to stick it out and see it through to the end we should take the measure 1 what is the main reason for many students quitting school 2 why don t some students quit until they are sixteen 3 what is the passage mainly about 五 书面表达 共一题 15分 假设你是李华 下学期升入高三后 老师和家长都想让你住校学习 而你却不愿意 双方各持己见 请用英语把这个情况写信告诉中学生英语报请求帮助 有关信息如下 老师和家长的理由 你的理由 1 方便问问题 2 节省路上的时间 3 培养独立生活的能力 1 有更好的学习环境 2 学习内容可以自由决定
