【题目】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、和 D)中,选出最佳选项。
A
Hello. I'm Jan from Mrs. Lake's class. My class wants to work together to help the public. We think we have found a great way to do this. Last month we did a class project on the highways near our town. We learned about the Adopt-a-Highway Program. This program brings people together to pick up litter along the roads. We think it would be a great idea for all students in our school to join the program and adopt(收养) a highway.
Adopting a highway is not like adopting a pet. When a highway is adopted, only part of the highway is cared for by a group of people. The group agrees to work every week to keep its part of the highway clean. Each group gets its own sign that has the name of the group printed on it. The sign is put up at the side of the road . This sign lets drivers know who is keeping that area of the road clean.
The Adopt-a-Highway Program is a great way for people to help their environment look nicer. Also, the government does not have to send out as many road workers. This saves money. Finally, people may try harder to keep roads clean if they see people, especially teenagers like us, cleaning them up.
We will need helpers to care for our adopted highway. If you want to feel great and keep our roads clean,please come with your parents to the meeting next week. We will meet in Mrs. Lake's room on Wednesday at 6:00 P.M. At the meeting, we will talk about which roads are the dirtiest as a result of people's unkind acts. Then we'll try to pick an area to adopt and clean.
I look forward to seeing you at the meeting. Remember to keep our roads clean!
(1)What is the Adopt-a-Highway Program about?
A.Giving names to the highways.
B.Drawing pictures of highways.
C.Picking up litter along the roads.
D.Putting up signs near the roads.
(2)What is the purpose of this speech?
A.To encourage students to join the program.
B.To introduce the traffic system.
C.To show drivers how to drive safely.
D.To tell a story about adopting a highway.
(3)Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A.Don't miss the meeting.
B.Volunteers on Roads.
C.Ways to Protect the Environment.
D.Adopt-a-Highway.

【答案】
(1)C
(2)A
(3)D
【解析】文章是围绕”Adopt-a-Highway Program”展开的,倡议的目的是鼓励人们参加这项活动。
(1)C 细节理解题。根据第一段中的This program bring people together to pick up litter along the roads.可知答案为C项。
(2)A推理判断题。第一段作者提出了“Adopt-a-Highway Program”这项活动,第二段介绍了参加这项活动的要求,第三段介绍了这项活动的意义,第四段通知有意加入者参加周三的会议。综合整篇文章可知此项倡议的目的是鼓励人们参加这项活动,所以答案是A项。
(3)D 主旨大意题。文章是围绕“Adopt-a-Highway Program”展开的,所以答案是D项。

【题目】How long can you safely freeze food?

Frozen food lasts indefinitely. But does that mean the raw chicken you bought on sale and froze will taste as good a year from now as it will three weeks from now? No. You can cook up that chicken a year later and it won’t harm you, but its taste and texture will be diminished. The key is knowing when frozen food starts to lose quality.1.

Fruits and vegetables.

You can freeze most vegetables and non-citrus fruits for about 8 to 12 months, according to the National Center for Home Food Preservation. (You can freeze citrus, too, but you need to take some extra steps.) Vegetables will benefit from blanching(用沸水烫)before you freeze them. 2, which affects nutrient levels and appearance of your veggies.

3

●Ground beef, turkey, veal, pork and lamb: For best flavor and texture, these ground meats are best used within three or four months of being frozen.

●Steaks and chops: These cuts of beef, veal, lamb or pork can be frozen for six to 12 months before losing quality. Chops of these meats start to lose quality after four to six months.

●Poultry: 4 ; pieces of birds keep their quality for up to nine months.

●Fish: For best quality, fatty fish (salmon, tuna) should be consumed within two to three months. Lean fish (cod, flounder) should be consumed within six months.

Soups, stews, chili and casseroles

Soups, stews chili and casseroles that have vegetables, meats, grains, pasta or cheese will keep their quality for two or three months in the freezer. 5.

A. Raw meat

B. General leftovers

C. Whole birds can keep their quality for up to a year

D. The point of that process is to stop the enzyme(酶)process

E. It’s still safe to eat, but it will have a lower quality taste and texture

F. This depends on whether they are newly purchased of freshly made and frozen

G. There isn’t a magic number of days for each food, but there are general guidelines to follow

【题目】阅读短文,完成下列问题。
B
A schoolgirl saved her father's life by kicking him in the chest after he suffered a serious allergic(过敏的) reaction(反应) which stopped his heart.
Izzy, nine, restarted father Colm's heart by stamping(踩) on his chest after he fell down at home and stopped breathing.
Izzy's mother, Debbie, immediately called 999 but Izzy knew doctors would never arrive in time to save her father, so decided to use CPR.
However, she quickly discovered her arms weren't strong enough, so she stamped on her father's chest instead.
Debbie then took over with some more conventional chest compressions(按压) until the ambulance arrived.
Izzy, who has been given a bravery award by her school, said: “I just kicked him really hard, my mum taught me CPR but I knew I wasn't strong enough to use hands. I was quite scared. The doctor said I might as well be a doctor or a nurse, my mum said that Dad was going to hospital with a big footprint on his chest.”
“She's a little star,” said Debbie, “I was really upset but Izzy just took over. I just can't believe what she did. I really think all children should be taught first aid. Izzy did CPR then the doctor turned up, Colm had to have more treatment on the way to the hospital and we've got to see an expert.”
Truck driver Clom, 35, suffered a mystery allergic reaction on Saturday and was taken to hospital, but was sent home only for it to happen again the next day. The second attack was so serious that his airway swelled, preventing him from breathing, his blood pressure dropped suddenly, and his heart stopped for a moment.
He has now made a full recovery from his suffering.
(1)Izzy kicked her father in the chest_________.
A.to express her helplessness
B.to try CPR on him

【题目】阅读理解
It has been a dream for 30 years but now the world's first flying car is set to hit the roads this year.
Ever since the “Back to the Future” movies lit up our screens in the 1980s,designers have dreamt of cars that could take to the sky at the push of a button.And now pilots can order their own “roadable” plane for just 127,000.
The plane, which has fold-out wings that span(翼展)17.5ft,has a range of flying distance of 460 miles and can be up to 115 mph.Back on the land,it can also travel at“highway speeds”in car mode(模式).
Fueling the 19ft. long plane couldn't be simpler----you just drive it into a petrol station and fill it up.
A spokeswoman said, “You can keep you ‘light-sport airplane' in your garage.But because it needs a short runway to take to the air, you will have to drive to your local airport,fly up to 460 miles, land,and drive directly to your destination.You will always be ready to drive or fly."
The spokeswoman added,“Never let bad weather change your trip.You call simply divert(改道)and continue on the ground until the weather clears.”
There is no risk to you—This is only the chance for you to be the first at your home field to unfold your wings and fly into the future.

One day a rich man took his son on a trip to the country in order to show his son if the poor lived, so he could be thankful to his wealth. They spent a couple of days and nights on the farm of that would be considered a very poor family. On their return back, the father asked his son to explain what he had learnt. The boy, who had remained silent and deep in thought on the journey home, replying in a way that shocked his father.

The boy said he wanted to become farmer. He envied the farmers who had the beautiful night star to give them light while her family had only expensive lanterns. His wish was to have a farm where he could go swimming in an endless river instead of the garden pool in their home.

【题目】阅读理解
Most of us lead unhealthy lives;we spend far too much sitting down. If, in addition, we are careless about our diets, our bodies soon become loose and fatty and our systems slowmoving. There are some aspects(方面)of our unhealthy lives that we cannot avoid. I am thinking of such features of modern city life as pollution, noise, rushed meals and stress. But keeping fit is a way to reduce the effects of these evils. The usual suggestion to a person who is looking for a way to keep fit is to take up some sport or other. While it is true that every weekend you will find people playing football and hockey in the local park, they are outnumbered a hundred to one by the people who are simply watching them.
For those who do not particularly enjoy competitive sports—and it is especially difficult to do so if you are not good at them—there are such separate activities as cycling, walking, jogging and swimming. What often happens though is that you do them in such a leisurely way, so slowly, that it is doubtful if you are doing yourself much good, except for the fact that you have at least managed to get up out of your armchair.
Even after you have found a way for keeping in shape, through sports or gymnastics, you are still only halfway to good health, because, according to the experts, you must also master the art of complete mental and physical relaxation(放松). It has to do with deep breathing, emptying your mind of all thoughts, meditation, and so on. Yoga, as practised in the West, is the most widely known and popular of the systems for achieving the necessary state of relaxation. It seems ironical(讽刺性的), though, that as our lives have improved in a material sense we have found it increasingly necessary to go back to forms of activity—physical effort on the one hand and relaxation on the other—which were the natural way of life of our forefathers.
(1)Pollution, noise and stress are examples of _________.
A.causes of unfitness
B.bad features of living in the city
C.the things we can completely do away with
D.unavoidable things in the city
(2)We don't get much out of separate sports because we __________.
A.don't do them very often
B.don't do them actively enough
C.find it hard to get out of our armchairs
D.don't find them interesting
(3)To be healthy, we must__________ .
A.keep fit and active
B.keep fit and learn to relax
C.be active and practise Yoga
D.have a sound mind
(4)Our forefathers were healthy because__________ .
A.their way of life closely connected with both exercise and relaxation
B.they were careful to get plenty of fresh air
C.they spent most of the time out of doors
D.their environment was not polluted

【题目】阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。
Several years ago I was at a train station waiting in line to buy a ticket. As I stood there I saw a young man asking people for money so that he could buy his breakfast. Most of the travelers simply (ignore) the young man or gave (he) a dirty look, yet a well-dressed middle-age man reacted differently. When (draw) near by the young man, the gentleman looked him and quietly asked, “How much will you need?” I couldn't hear the young man said but watched as the gentleman pulled several (note) from his wallet and (calm) placed them in the young man's hands.
I don't know whether the young man actually used the money for his breakfast or for purpose. What I do know is that I saw two different reactions to the same situation. I saw people who (be) either afraid or annoyed. And then I saw the gentleman who was not afraid and treated the homeless young man as though he were a brother. I decided then and there that, even though we have to be (care) in this world, I would rather be like the gentleman.
