As we all know, travelling can be an excited experience. Let me give you some advices that you have to pay attention. You can find out more about your destination by surf the Internet before you set out. You needn't take too many cash. Since it can be very convenient to pay in cash, using cheques is much more reliable. In additional, it will be wise of you to take an umbrella in case of it should rain. And if you are to travel abroad, you'd better understand the culture and diversity. Keep this in mind that being polite in foreign countries can help you had a wonderful trip.
【答案】①excited—exciting②advices—advice③attention后加to④surf—surfing⑤many—much⑥Since—Though⑦additional—addition⑧case of 去掉of⑨this—it⑩had—have
【解析】作者就外出旅游的注意事项给我们提了几点建议。
(1)excited—exciting.考查形容词。excited“兴奋的”修饰人,exciting“令人兴奋的”修饰物,此处修饰“旅行”是物要用exciting. 故excited—exciting.
(2)advices—advice.考查不可数名词。advice是不可数名词没有复数形式,故advices—advice.
(3)attention后加to.考查固定短语。pay attention to“注意”是固定短语,句中的宾语是some advice,故attention后加to.
(4)surf—surfing.考查动词形式。在介词by之后要用动词的-ing形式,故surf—surfing.
(5)many—much.考查形容词。many和much都指“许多的”,many 修饰可数名词much修饰不可数名词,此处修饰cash是不可数名词,故many—much.
(6)Since—Though.考查连词。句意:尽管用现金支付很方便,但是用支票支付更可靠。根据句意用Though,故Since—Though.
(7)additional—addition.考查名词。In addition是固定短语“此外,另外”,故additional—addition.(8)case of 去掉of.考查短语用法。in case万一, 以防, 如果,引导条件状语从句。 in case of如果, 万一,后接名词、代词或动名词。此处后面是句子要用in case,故case of 去掉of.
(9)this—it.考查代词。此处代替前面出现的culture and diversity是不可数名词,用it代替,故this—it.
(10)had—have.考查动词形式。动词help后加动词原形或to do形式,指“帮助某人做某事”,故had—have.

Superfast doubledecker (双层) trains will be taking passengers from London to six big cities in the UK by 2033. The first phase (阶段) linking London to the West Midlands with a connection to HS1 is expected to open in 2026, and the second phase to Manchester and Leeds in 2032.
The government set out a plan for the highspeed rail network in 2012. When the project is finished, it will take less time to get to London from major cities like Birmingham, Manchester and Leeds. Traveling at a speed of up to 250 mph, passengers will be able to come and go from Birmingham to London in 49 minutes, reducing the journey time by almost half from one hour and 24 minutes.
A journey from Birmingham to Leeds will be reduced from two hours to 57 minutes and a journey from Manchester to London will be reduced from two hours and 8 minutes to one hour and 8 minutes.
“HS2 is an important part of transport's lowcarbon future,” Transport Secretary Justine Greening said. Some people aren't happy about the plan, though. HS2 will cost around £33 billion. It will also be built near some towns and villages, disturbing the people that live there.
But the Chancellor of the Exchequer (财政大臣) George Osborne thinks it will help build the future for Britain. “It's a longterm decision,” he said.
HS2 is designed for everything around the needs of the passengers. It will provide a new and exciting travel experience. There will be plenty of room, intelligent ticketing, a good service and high quality comfort and access to trains. This is a transport network for the new century and beyond.
(1)What's the UK's plan according to the passage?
A.To buy some doubledecker trains.
B.To take passengers to Manchester from London.
C.To build a highspeed train network.
D.To collect £33 billion for the highspeed train network.
(2)How long does it usually take you to travel from Birmingham to London by the ordinary train?
A.49 minutes.
B.One hour and 24 minutes.
C.57 minutes.
D.Two hours and eight minutes.
(3)What can NOT be inferred from what Justine Greening and George Osborne said?
A.HS2 is more important than HS1.
B.Not all British people are happy about the plan.
C.The British will benefit from the project in the future.
D.The £33 billion will not be enough for the plan.
(4)The passage is most probably taken from ________.
A.a novel
B.a geography book
C.a personal diary
D.a newspaper

【题目】根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
Experiments under way in several labs aim to create beneficial types of genetically modified foods, including starchier potatoes and caffeine-free coffee beans. Genetic engineers are even trying to transfer genes from a cold-winter fish to make a frost-resistant tomato.
A low-sugar GM strawberry now in the works might one day allow people with health problems such as diabetes (糖尿病) to enjoy the little delicious red fruits again. GM beans and grains rich in protein(蛋白质) might help people at risk of developing kwashiorkor. Kwashiorkor, a disease caused by severe lack of protein, is common in parts of the world where there are severe food shortages.
Commenting on GM foods, Jonathon Jones, a British researcher, said: "The future benefits will be enormous(巨大的), and the best is yet to come". To some people, GM foods are no different from unmodified foods. "A tomato is a tomato," said Brian Sansoni, an American food manufacturer.
Critics of GM foods challenge Sansoni's opinion. They worry about the harm that GM crops might do to people, other animals, and plants.
In a recent lab study conducted at Cornell University, scientists tested pollen(花粉) made by BT corn, which makes up one-fourth of the U.S. corn crop. The scientist dropped the pollen onto milkweed, a plant that is the only known food source of a butterfly caterpillar(毛虫). Within four days of feeding on the leaves, almost half of a test group of caterpillars died. "This is a warning bell." said Cornell researcher Linda Raynor.
Some insects that are not killed by GM foods might find themselves made stronger. How so? The insecticides are used on the crops to kill the pests. But GM plants produce a continuous level of insecticide. Insects relying on those crops may develop resistance to the plants and they may also develop a resistance to the insecticide.
At the forum on GM food held last year in Canada. GM crops that have been made resistant to the herbicide might crossbreed with wild plants, creating "superweeds" that could take over whole fields.
So where do you stand? Should GM food be banned in the United States, as they are in parts of Europe? Or do their benefits outweigh(胜过) any of the risks they might carry?
(1)The first three paragraphs try to give the idea that__________
A.GM foods may bring about great benefits to humans.
B.GM foods are no different from ordinary ones.
C.GM foods may have both benefits and harm.
D.GM foods are particularly good to the kwashiorkor patients.
(2)Why is the pollen-sprayed milkweed mentioned in Paragraph 5?
A.To show GM foods can kill insects effectively.
B.To show GM foods contain more protein.
C.To show GM foods also have a dark side.
D.To show GM foods may harm crops.
(3)What happens to those insects when not killed by the spray of insecticide?
A.They may lose their ability to produce lay eggs.
B.They may have a higher ability to adapt to the environment.
C.They move to other fields free from insecticide.
D.They never eat again those plants containing insecticide.
(4)Which of the following statements concerning banning GM foods is true according to the passage?
A.Underdeveloped countries have banned GM foods.
B.Both Europe and the U.S. have banned GM foods.
C.Most European countries have not banned GM foods.
D.The United States has not banned GM foods.

【题目】根据短文理解,选择正确答案。
On Monday, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention predicted that 42% of Americans could be overweight by 2030. Our expanding waistlines lead to not only a medical problem, but according to a recent article In The New York Times, it could also endanger personal safety in some situations—in an airplane crash, for example.
The New York Times' Christen Negroni reports that engineers and scientists are questioning whether airplane seats are adequately constructed to protect overweight travelers. Government standards for airplane seat strength(强度)— first set moe than 60 years ago — require that the seats be made for a passenger weighing 170 pounds (77kg). Today, the average American man weighs nearly 194 pounds (88kg) and the average woman 165 pounds (75kg). Negroni reports:
“If a heavier person completely fills seat, the seat is not likely to behave as intended during a crash,” said Robert Salazar, the leading scientist at the Center for Applied Biomechanics at the University of Virginia. “The energy absorption that is built into the aircraft seat is likely to be overpowered and the passengers will not be protected properly.”
“Nor would the injury be limited to that passenger only,” Dr. Salzar said. “If a seat or a seat belt fails,” he said, “those people who are seated nearby could be endangered from ‘the uncontrolled movements of the passenger'.”
Most complaints about airplane seats focus on their lack of comfort and high ticket price, and whether overweight passengers should be made to buy two seats. But The New York Times' article brings up another reason to feel anxious about flying. Investigators of the issue got in touch with the airplane seat and seat belt makers, but they refused to comment on the problem. Experts agreed that crash testing should be done with overweight dummies (人体模型). Both airplane seats and seat belts should be tested, they said.
Fortunately, however, according to Nora Marshall, a senior adviser at the National Transportation Safety Board, the board's investigators have never seen an accident involving a commercial plane in which the weight of a passenger was a problem.
(1)What is the article in The New York Times mainly concerned with?
A.The size of airplane seats and seat belts.
B.Safety of overweight airplane passengers.
C.Airplane crashes involving commercial planes.
D.A medical problem caused by being overweight.
(2)Robert Salzar would probably agree that .
A.overweight passengers should buy two seats
B.the government should help produce safer planes
C.standards for airplane seat strength should be raised
D.passengers should know how to protect themselves
(3)We can learn from the text that .
A.airplane seat makers have taken action now
B.there are few complaints about airplane seats
C.those seate near the overweight may suffer too
D.only a small number of airplane accidents involve the overweight
(4)What is the best title for the text?
A.Why Do Passengers Feel Anxious about Flying?
B.Will 42% of Americans Be OVERWEIGHT BY 2030?
C.When Will the Overweight Enjoy Their Flight?
D.Are Airplane Seats Safe Enough for the Overweight?

Hi Thomas,
How is everything with you recently? I'm very exciting because I have applied for a holiday job, taught English conversation in a teacher training college near Shanghai. I'm a bit of worried because I don't know if I should bring some present for the teachers I'll meet. Should 1 shake hands when I meet people, or just smiling? What topics will my students want to talk then? Might I say or do something that will seem rudely? This may seem unimportant with you, but I want to plan everything in advance, or I'd love to know what you think. You had been to China before.
Looking forward to your reply.
All the best,
Bruno

【题目】根据短文内容的理解,选择正确答案。 In ancient Egypt, a shopkeeper discovered that he could attract customers to his shop simply by making changes to its environment. Modern businesses have been following his lead, with more tactics(策略).
One tactic involves where to display the goods. For example, stores place fruits and vegetables in the first section. They know that customers who buy the healthy food first will feel happy so that they will buy more junk food later in their trip. In department stores, the women's shoe section is generally next to the women's cosmetics(化妆品) section: while the shop assistant is going back to find the right size shoe, bored customers are likely to wander over and find some cosmetics they might want to try later.
Besides, businesses seek to appeal to customers' senses, stores notice that the smell of baked goods encourages shopping, so they make their own bread each morning and then fan the bread smell into the store throughout the day. Music sells goods, too. Researchers in Britain found that when French music was played, sales of French wines went up.
When it comes to the selling of houses, businesses also use highly rewarding tactics. They find that customers make decisions in the first few seconds upon walking in the door, and turn it into a business opportunity. A California builder designed the structure of its houses smartly. When entering the house, the customer would see the Pacific Ocean through the windows, and then the pool through an open stairway leading to the lower level. The instant view of water on both levels helped sell these $10 million houses.
(1)According to Paragraph 3, which of the following encourages customers to buy?
A.Opening the store early in the morning.
B.Filling the store with the smell of fresh bread.
C.Inviting customers to play music.
D.Displaying British wines next to French ones.
(2)What is the California builder's story intended to prove?
A.The house structure is a key factor customers consider.
B.A good first impression increases sales.
C.An ocean view is much to the customers' taste.
D.The more costly the house is, the better it sells.
(3)what is the main purpose of the passage?
A.To report researches on customer behavior.
B.To introduce how businesses have grown from the past.
C.To explain how businesses turn people into their customers
D.To show dishonest business practices.

【题目】For many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner. Like a border conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about boundaries: Where is the line between what I control and what you do?
Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict. In part, this is because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for starting it. From the parents’ point of view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents’ complete unreasonableness. And of course, the teens see it in exactly the same way, except oppositely. Both feel trapped.
In this article, I’ll describe three no-win situations that commonly arise between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap. The first no-win situation is quarrels over unimportant things. Examples include the color of the teen’s hair, the cleanliness of the bedroom, the preferred style of clothing, the child’s failure to eat a good breakfast before school, or his tendency to sleep until noon on the weekends. Second, blaming. The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong. Third, needing to be right. It doesn’t matter what the topic is ---politics, the laws of physics, or the proper way to break an egg---the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong, for both wish to be considered an authority---someone who actually knows something---and therefore to command respect. Unfortunately, as long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other, they’ll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress.
【1】Why does the author compare the parent-teen war to a border conflict?
A. both can continue for generations.
B. Both are about where to draw the line.
C. Neither has any clear winner.
D. Neither can be put to an end.
【2】What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. The teens blame their parents for starting the conflict.
B. The teens agree with their parents on the cause of the conflict.
C. The teens accuse their parents of misleading them.
D. The teens tend to have a full understanding of their parents.
【3】Parents and teens want to be right because they want to ________.
A. give orders to the other
B. know more than the other
C. gain respect from the other
D. get the other to behave properly
【4】What will the author most probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?
A. Causes for the parent –teen conflicts.
B. Examples of the parent –teen war.
C. Solutions for the parent –teen problems.
D. Future of the parent-teen relationship.
