If the break is small, however, the person may not feel much pain at all. If you think that you or someone else has broken a bone, the most important things to do are to stay calm, make the hurt person comfortable, and call the doctor. Do not move the injured body part since movement could make it worse. To treat the break, the doctor will need to take an X-ray. This gives the doctor the information he or she needs to set (接上) the bone: to put it back to its normal place. If the bone is large or it is broken in more than one place, the doctor may need to use metal pins (钢钉) to set it. After the bone has been set, the next step is usually putting on a cast, the special, hard thing that will keep the bone in place for a month or two. Your bones are excellent at healing themselves. Broken bones will produce many new cells (细胞) and tiny blood vessels (血脉). These cover both ends of the broken part, and close up the break until the bone is as whole and strong as before. 61. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. How to Know if a Bone is Broken B. How Broken Bones Heal Themselves C. Common Causes (原因) of Broken Bones D. What You Should Know about Broken Bones 62. When someone breaks his bone, the following should be done except ______. A. asking the doctor for help B. comforting the hurt person C. moving the injured part D. staying calm 63. Which is the correct order to treat the break? a. take an x-ray b. use metal pins to set it c. put it back to its normal place d. put on cast A. a→b→c→d B. a→c→b→d C. a→d→c→b D. d→a→b→c 64. The underlined word “heal” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to “______”. A. break again B. become worse C. wound or hurt D. become healthy again 65. Where would you probably read this passage? A. In a story book. B. On a poster. C. In a health care book. D. In a chemistry book. 【主旨大意】本文讲述如果骨头受了伤害,人们在送医院之前怎样处理,如何接受正规的医学治疗,以及骨头康复的原理。 61. D主旨大意题。综合全文我们应该从三个方面了解对于断骨的知识。答案D具有概括性。 62.

Now, Gao has to go to prison (监狱) for six months and pay a 4,000 yuan fine. Gao is the first star to be punished under China’s new drunk driving law. From May 1 on, drunk drivers will pay a fine, and be banned from driving for five years or even forever. Drunk driving has become a serious social problem in China. According to the Ministry of Public Security (公安部), police caught more than half a million drunk drivers last year, a 68 % increase from 2009. The new law sees drunk driving as a crime.

If the driver wants to drive again, he or she must do public service, and take part in educational programs. You may think: drunk driving is a crime? Isn’t this law too unkind? But experts say: not at all. “It is to protect people’s rights to life and health,” Li Gang, lawyer in Chengdu, told China Daily. “Drunk driving is very dangerous. No matter what the results are, it should not be allowed.” 51. Mr. Gao ran his car into three other cars because _________.

If your phone rings in class, for example, the teacher will be very angry. Every mobile phone has a ringtone(铃声). It tells you that someone is calling you. Now, there is a ringtone called “mosquitotone(蚊子铃声)”. Using it, students can receive calls and text messages(短信) in class but the teacher will not realize what is happening. How? Mosquitotone has a special sound. Only children and teenagers can hear it. As we get older, we are unable to hear some sounds with high frequencies(频率). As a result, a child or teenager can hear the mosquitotone ringtone, but it’s inaudible to someone 20 or older. But sometimes, people over 20 can hear the ringtone. One British student’s phone uses mosquitotone. In class, the student’s phone rang. The 32-year-old teacher looked at the student and became unhappy. “I heard that. You know the rule: no mobile phone in class.” Not all the students are interested in mosquitotone. Jerry Jones, a high school student of 17, says, “Using mosquitotone too often is bad of our hearing. I may use it for pleasure, but not in class. It’s unfair to the teachers!” What do parents think of mosquitotone? “I think it is perfect for places like movies theaters.” says Connie Neeson, 44. “Think about it. You’re watching a film and someone’s mobile phone rings. Mosquitotone is good because many people don’t hear it. However, it also has a bad influence on their study if students use it in class.” 48. Mosquitotone works because _________. A. it is very loud B. it has no sound C. it has a beautiful sound D. it uses high frequencies 49. The underlined part “it’s inaudible to” means “______”. A. it can’t be seen by B. it can’t be heard by C. it isn’t popular with D. it isn’t healthy for 50. The 32-year-old teacher felt unhappy because the student ________ . A. was late for class B. didn’t do his homework C. couldn’t answer her question D.was using a mobile phone in class 51. Connie Neeson thinks that mosquitontone _______. A. has no bad influence B. is unfair to the teacher C. has its advantage and disadvantage D.can’t be used in any public place 【主旨大意】文章介绍了一种特殊的手机铃声“蚊子铃声”,对此老师、学生和家长有不同的看法。 48. D 推理判断题 有第二段“Mosquitotone has a special sound. Only children and teenagers can hear it. As we get older, we are unable to hear some sounds with high frequencies(频率).”“蚊子铃音有特殊的声音。只有儿童和青少年能听到。由于年龄大了,我们不能听到这么高频率的声音”可知。 49. B 推理判断题 有第二段可知儿童和青少年能听到蚊子铃音,对于20以上的人群一般听不到。 50. D 细节理解题 由第四段可知学生在课堂上,学生的手机响了。学校规定不允许用手机,因此老师不高兴了。 51. C 细节理解题 有文章最后一段可知Connie Neeson认为在公共场合使用蚊子铃音有好处,别人不被打扰;然而在课堂上学生用它则对学习有不好的影响。 【2011浙江台州】(选择型)D Think back to a time in your life when you tried something new. When I was a teenager I volunteered to pass out water at a local race. I was so excited to see all the different runners who passed by and quickly took a cup of water.

I was thinking, “I must be crazy. Why did I do this? What was I thinking?” And at one moment, I said to myself, “I am never doing this again!” That first 10 km race was quite an experience. I jogged(慢跑),I walked, I jogged and walked. At times, I didn’t know if I could finish. Near the end, a 70-year-old man ran past me, very fast, and I felt a little embarrassed(尴尬的)that I was more than 50 years younger than he and I couldn’t even keep up with him. But then I realized something. He was running his race and I was running mine. How often in life do we compare(比较)ourselves to others when we really shouldn’t? I decided that I would not give up on running races, and that one day I would be one of those 70-year-old men who were still running. As I crossed the finishing line, I was proud of myself.

So when you have got a strong immune system and the virus is strong enough too, you will possibly get terrible cold symptoms( 症状) ? Vitamin C won't stop a cold It is claimed that Vitamin C helps by increasing white blood cells. However, many tests have shown that it does not prevent colds. At best, it only slightly reduces the rime of symptoms. Staying indoors won't protect you One of the most likely sources of cold viruses is your computer mouse or desk. A study of the cold virus in offices found that 47% of desktops, 46% of computer mice and 45% of telephones had cold viruses on them. Wrapping up warm won't protect you Colds are more common in autumn and winter. That's because the cool, wet and cold weather drives people indoors, where viruses may more easily jump from one person to another. And the distinct peak in colds(感冒高峰) is in September and early January, which is likely due to the return of students to schools and colleges after the summer and winter vacation. Old granny's chicken soup is right Granny's chicken soup is an old cure for colds since a long time ago. Scientists say it is true. Chicken soup does help cure a cold. Many canned soups are just efficient as homemade ones. 52. It is ______ that makes you uncomfortable when getting a cold. A. the virus itself B.

Most people don't know what to do with them. Many old computers are put away in homes. Many more are simply thrown out with the rubbish. Some companies are thinking of ways to bring down the number of old computers. Sony has agreed to help recycle old Sony products. Dell, Hewlett - Packard and other companies now also take back some old computers. In some countries, laws are being passed, too.

It is reported that British people spend more eating out than cooking for themselves and eating at home.

Most British cities have a large collection of food as well as British food, from the very cheap to the very expensive-French, Italian, Indian, Chinese, Thai, Japanese and many, many more. When people are too tired to cook after work, they often get a “takeaway”. This means that they order from a take-out restaurant by telephone, and then go to get it. Many take-out restaurants also send it to your house. All you have to do is to open the door, pay and eat! 46. When do British people often eat in a restaurant? A. After having a birthday. B.

At that time my little brother was about four years old and he missed mum all the time. One day, after I had given him his dinner, he started crying for mum. He was so young and really needed mum. So I dressed him, put on his shoes, carried him on my back and walked out. Soon he fell asleep. About half an hour later, I found that he had lost a shoe while sleeping. I took him off my back and put him down. I knew we needed to find that shoe, for our mother couldn’t afford new shoes. We had to go back to find it, so I told my brother to wait right there. A man heard it and stopped me just before I walked off. He asked me, “You are leaving your brother here to find the shoe? What would you do if he is not here when you return?” I did not know how to answer that question. He continued, “It’s OK if you can’t find the shoe, but it is not OK to lose your brother.” Then he sent us to mum’s workplace by taxi. My whole life I have depended on the kindness of many strangers, I feel regretful that I cannot find them and say thank you. I do not even remember what the man’s face looked like, but he taught me a lesson—people are more important than things. 47. Why did the younger brother cry for his mother? A. Because he was hungry. B. Because he missed his mother. C. Because he wanted to sleep. D. Because he wanted to play outside. 48. What does the underlined word “regretful” in the last paragraph mean? A. Sorry. B. Happy. C. Excited. D. Angry. 49. What did the man mean by saying “It’s OK if you can’t find the shoe, but it is not OK to lose your brother.”? A. People are more important than things. B. Things are more important than people. C. Both the shoe and your brother are important. D. The shoe is more important than your brother. 50. According to the passage, which word can best describe the man? A. Rude. B. Funny. C. Silly. D. Kind. 【主旨大意】本文主要讲述了作者年幼的时候照看弟弟的故事。有次他带着弟弟去找妈妈,把弟弟的一只鞋丢了,准备放心弟弟去找鞋子的时候,一个陌生人帮助了他,告诉他人比鞋更重要。 47. B 细节理解题。根据句子“He was so young and really needed mum.”可知因为弟弟想妈妈,所以,他哭着找妈妈。故选B。 48. A 词义猜测题。由regretful之后的句子“I cannot find them and say thank you.”“我不能找到他们,对他们表示谢意”可推出regretful和sorry同义,意为“遗憾的;抱歉的”。故选A。 49. A 推理判断题。男人的话的意思是“丢了鞋子可以,但是丢了弟弟就不行了。”言外之意就是人要比东西更重要。故选A。 50. D 主旨大意题。rude意为“粗鲁的”,funny意为“有趣的”,silly意为“蠢笨的”,kind意为“友善的”。这个男子热心帮助作者,所以是善良的。故选D。 【2011浙江舟山】(选择型)D When you are about to do something brave, a cheerful wish of “Good luck!” from a friend can be helpful. But if you think you need lots of luck, what else might you do? In the UK and US there are some strange traditions for bringing yourself a little more good luck. Some are hundreds of years old and some are much newer. Have you heard the saying “When you wish upon a star”? If you are looking up at the sky on a clear night and you see a sudden flash of light, it is probably a shooting star! Seeing one doesn’t happen very often. The saying goes that if you see one you have been very lucky, and so if you make a wish, it will come true. Maybe you have heard of the lucky rabbit’s foot. Some people believe that rabbits are lucky animals, so they carry a part of the rabbit, its foot, for good luck. There are all kinds of strange, unclear rules about which of the rabbit’s feet is the luckiest. It is said that this good luck tradition is the oldest one of all. However, as the funny saying goes, “Depend on the rabbit’s foot if you will, but remember it didn’t work for the rabbit!” People in Britain love trees. If it is autumn and leaves are falling from the trees, some people try to catch the leaves as they fall because they think each leaf they catch will bring them a lucky month in the following year—they will need to catch 12 falling leaves to have a whole of good luck! 51. ______ is mentioned in the oldest good luck tradition. A. A rabbit’s foot B. A falling leaf C. A cheerful wish from friends D. A shooting star 52. From Paragraph 3, we know that ______. A. shooting stars can often be seen B. people can see a shooting star on a rainy night C. your wish may come true if you see a shooting star D. people believe that it’s unlucky to see a shooting star 53. British people try to catch 12 falling leaves because ______. A. the leaves fall in autumn B. there are so many leaves to catch C. the leaves can bring them a lucky month D. they want to have a whole year of good luck 54. In Paragraph 5, the underlined word “them” refers to(指)______. A. trees B. people C. leaves D. years 55. The passage is mainly about ______. A. how to wish upon a star B. things that bring good luck C. British people love leaves D. which of the rabbit’s feet is the luckiest 【主旨大意】短文讲述了在英国、美国,人们为了谋求好运的一些做法:像流星许愿、携带兔子的脚以及抓住秋天的12片落叶。 51.

In the day, it can be so hot that you could fry an egg on the ground. But during the night it is sometimes so cold that water would turn into ice. Many desserts are covered in sand. But some have mountains, rocks, or lakes that have dried up in the heat. The Great American Dessert has cliffs(悬崖) that have been made into amazing and beautiful shapes by the wind. The Sahara Desert in Africa is mostly sand. The Australian Desert has red sand. Sometimes it does not rain for a whole year in the desert. But there is water deep under the ground and some plants have roots that go very deep to find it. Other plants have roots that spread out(延伸) a long way so they can suck up the rain as soon as it falls. One desert plant is the cactus, which has long, spreading roots. The cactus stores water inside its hard skin. This skin protects it from heat and cold. Camels are a bit like cactus plants! They store water too—inside their bodies. They have special fur which protects them from the sun during the day and keeps them warm at night. Some other animals live in deserts, too. They have to be very good at seeing and hearing because most of them only come out at night. This is why many desert animals have extra big eyes or ears. A desert fox has bigger ears than a normal for. A gerbil has huge eye, so that it can see at night. It stays cool in the day by staying underground, like most desert animals. Some people live in the desert but they always make their homes near an oasis. An oasis is where water comes from an underground river. Near an oasis, people can grow lots of plants and keep animals. Life is hard in the desert, for people, animals and plants. But desert people like to live there. 46.A desert is very dry because__________.

It is usually read on personal computers. Some mobile phones can also be used to read e-books. Earlier e-books were written for a specific group of readers and were about only a few subjects. With the development of the internet, knowledge and answers to a lot of questions mainly come from e-books. This is why the e-book business is increasing quickly E-books have many advantages. First, they save time. We don’t need to go to a bookstore to buy books, besides, we can find the topic we want to know about on the Internet, and then we can quickly get many e-books on similar topics. Second, e-books save money. Some e-books cost a little money, and there are millions of e-books on the Internet that we can get for free. Third, more trees are saved because e-books don’t need to be printed(印刷) on paper. Fourth, e-books make reading more convenient. You can carry a whole library of hundreds of books with you in a small computer or any e-book reader (电子阅读器) without worrying about their weight. But e-books have certain disadvantages.

She did not like her ugly colour. She was attracted by the colour of the lake near her home. It was as blue as the sky after a storm. Bluebird wanted to be the colour of that beautiful lake very much. Flapping her wings one morning, Bluebird flew from her tree to the blue lake. Then she bathed in the water three times. After each bath, she sang, “Blue water. Still water. I went in. I am blue.” Bluebird repeated this every morning. On the third day, she came out of the lake with beautiful blue feathers. Now Coyote was a trickster(骗子)—and hungry too. He stayed behind Bluebird’s tree for a long time every day and watched her go to the lake. He pretended(伪装) to be interested in everything she did. He wanted Bluebird for lunch, but he was afraid of the blue water. On the third morning, Coyote saw Bluebird come out of the lake with beautiful blue feathers. Impressed, he sat next to Bluebird’s tree and waited for her. When she returned, he asked, “How did you get blue feathers? I want to be blue like the mountains too.” Bluebird didn’t believe Coyote, but she taught him how to bathe three times each morning and how to sing her song. Coyote did what she said, and after three days of bathing in the lake, his white fur turned deep blue. Convinced(确信的) that blue fur was even more beautiful than blue feathers, Coyote forgot all about being hungry. He ran as fast as he could to the top of the hill. Standing on his back legs, he raised his front legs off the ground and howled. But Coyote slipped(滑倒) and rolled down the hill. He couldn’t stop himself, and the dust and dirt covered his new blue fur. He rolled and rolled until he hit into Bluebird’s tree heavily. No matter how much he tried, foolish Coyote could not shake the dust from his fur. And so the fur of all coyotes had the dull colour of dust to this very day. ( )1.

A man with a walking stick is pictured there. A bird called a California condor(大秃鹫) is flying overhead. Who is this man, and why is he so important that he is featured(处于显著地位) on the back of a coin? The man on this quarter is John Muir. Even as a child, Muir loved watching nature. As a young man, he spent much of his life exploring the beauty of the wilderness. He walked more than a thousand miles across the country, through fields and woods. John Muir liked writing about the places he visited, describing their beauty. Muir also wrote about problems. In order to create more farmland for sheep and cattle, many trees were being cut down. This made Muir unhappy and worried, because he knew that trees were important to forests and to the animals that lived in them. Muir believed that nature should be conserved(保护) instead of being changed by human beings. He wrote articles in magazines and newspapers to spread the word about conserving forests. Soon, others began to listen. Muir wrote letters to important people, such as President Theodore Roosevelt. The president admired Muir’s love for nature. When Roosevelt came to visit Muir in California, Muir convinced(说服) the president to go camping with him for three nights under the trees so they could talk about conservation. Later, President Roosevelt set aside 148 million acres of land for national forests and established(建立) five national parks. National parks are large areas of land that are protected form development. This means that people cannot build homes or businesses there. One of these parks in Yosemite National Park, the area that is featured on the back of the California quarter. Though it has been almost one hundred years since John Muir died, people continue his work today. His work as a conservationist helped us to see the beauty of our natural world. John Muir made us understand the importance of protecting our earth and our resources—then, now, and for the future. ( )1. What did John Muir spend much of his life doing when he was a young man? A. Watching natural views. B. Writing about the places he visited. C. Exploring the beauty of the wilderness. D. Creating farmland for sheep and cattle. ( )2.

E-mail is quicker and cheaper. Getting a handwritten letter from a friend has become a rare (稀有的) pleasure.

These are the things I want for you—to grow up in a world in which you can make your dreams come true. And I want every child to have the same chances to learn and dream and grow and get what you girls have. That's why I've taken our family on this great adventure. I am so proud of you.

One day Henry Jackson was working in a restaurant kitchen. He picked up a dish from a table, and suddenly a snake appeared and bit him on the hand. A few days earlier, the snake came to the restaurant from Asia in a box of bananas. It climbed out of the box and hid under the dish. “ I tried to pick it up and it bit me. I threw it away, but it landed in the fridge. So I closed the door.” Jackson said. Anyway, Jackson was cool and he took a photo of the snake with his mobile phone. Soon his hand began to ache and he went to hospital. Then his chest began to hurt. Doctors couldn't say what was wrong because they didn't know what kind of snake it was. Then Jackson remembered his mobile phone photo. The doctors sent it to London Zoo. When they knew the kind of snake, they could give Jackson the right medicine, and he left hospital the next day. “ So my advice is this: If a snake bits you, pick up your phone. Take its photo first and then call the hospital. Show the photo to the doctors,” suggests Mr. Jackson. “ Oh, and if the snake doesn't smile for its photo, don't worry!” 1.

Jenny, 13, a US student, feels bored. She knows the feeling because she has been in hospital many times herself. One day, she thought of an idea—if patients could get some books to read, they would feel better. So, from May, she and many of her friends began to collect books for hospital patients. In six months the students collected 1,250 books at school. They decided to donate the books to the North Shore Medical Centre, a children’s hospital next door to their school. “There are books for kids of all ages, from babies up to high school level.” said Jenny. The students put the books into “early readers”, “middle readers” and “advanced readers”. Then they wrote their best wishes to patients on bookmarks (书签) and letters, put the books in big boxes and donated them to the hospital. “We wrote things like, “Keep on reading!’ and ‘Hope you feel better!’,” said John, 14, Jenny’s brother. “And we also wrote some funny things to make them laugh.” Frank, 12, and Steven, 14, helped carry 16 large boxes of books into a car. “I think these books will make me a lot of patients feel happy.” said Frank. Steven shared his opinion. “It is really the most meaningful thing that I have ever done in my life.” 36. Who first thought of the idea of helping those bored patients in hospital? A. John. B. Frank.

It is one of the world’s most important wetlands. The reserve covers an area of 210,000 hectares. The area provides food and shelter for wildlife. It is an ideal home for different kinds of plants, fish and birds. Many birds live comfortably in Zhalong Nature Reserve all year round, while some only stay there for a short time. There are many fish in the wetlands, and the birds can easily catch them for food. Zhalong has long been called “the home of the crane”. There are 15 crane species (物种) in the world. 8 of them are in China and there are 6 species in Zhalong area. It is an important living area for the rare red-crowned cranes.

She tried to open the doors, but they were all locked (锁上的). “How will I ever get out again?” she thought sadly. Then she saw a little glass table with three legs, and on the top of it was a very small gold key. Alice quickly took the key and tried it in all the doors, but she couldn’t open any. Then she saw another door, a door that was only forty centimetres high. The little gold key unlocked this door easily, but Alice couldn’t get through it—she was much too big. So she lay on the floor and looked through the open door, into a beautiful garden with green trees and bright flowers. “I’d like to be out there—not in this dark room. Why can’t I get smaller?” It was already a very strange day, and Alice was beginning to think that anything was possible. After a while she locked the door again, got up and went back to the glass table. She put the key down and then she saw a little bottle on the table. Round the neck of the bottle was a piece of paper with the words DRINK ME in large letters. “It can be dangerous to drink out of strange bottles,” she said. “What will it do to me?” She drank a little bit very slowly. The taste was very nice and very soon Alice finished the bottle. “I think I’m getting smaller and smaller every second.” And she was. “And now,” she said happily, “I can get through the little door into that beautiful garden.” She ran at once to the door. Then she remembered that the little gold key was back on the glass table. She ran back to the table for it, but she was now much too small! The key was high above her, on top of the table. She tried very hard to climb up the table leg, but she couldn’t do it. At last, tired and unhappy, she got angry with herself. Soon she saw a little glass box near her on the floor. She opened it, and found a very small cake with the words EAT Me on it. Nothing could surprise Alice now. 47. Where did Alice find the little gold key according to the story? A. In the garden . B.

One day the girl left the cage’s door open. The larger and stronger of the two birds flew out of the cage. The girl watched worriedly as it circled(盘旋) high above her.

MSG is a substance that is added to some food to improve its original(原先的) taste and colour. It is used in foods around the world such as cakes, bread, frozen meats, fish and vegetables. In the beginning, people thought MSG was safe just like salt and sugar. However, in 1968 some people reported they seemed to have bad reactions(反应) to MSG after having had a meal at a restaurant. They included headaches and quick heartbeat(心跳).It was also reported that MSG excited a person’s brain and caused his death in Japan. Scientists think that MSG may lead to many neurological disorders(神经紊乱).In mice studies done by a university, the evidence showed the mice didn’t want to eat the food including MSG. Today many food companies “hide” MSG on food labels(标签) by using different names. If you see “natural flavorings”,“hydrolyzed protein”and “spices” in a food label, you are probably seeing a hidden way to “report” MSG in a food label. Every time we have a meal in a restaurant, we always feel the food very delicious to taste, but sometimes it is dangerous for our health because some poisonous food additives have been added to the food. To protect people’s health, our governments, from central to local, are taking actions to stop factories producing poisonous food additives. 41. Monosodium Glutamate is _______ A. a food B. an additive C. a factory D. a country 42. MSG is often used in ______. A. frozen meats B. cups C. clothes D. book covers 43.

We all know that thinking green is sometimes the most difficult thing to do, but not impossible! Bed ZED, a new eco-friendly village (生态村)in the south of London, has done a great job of providing its villagers with a high level living while getting them to pay more attention to protecting the environment. People in Bed ZED have done many things. They recycle their paper, plastic, glass and other daily things. They build many houses whose windows face south in order to get as much sunlight as possible.

But I wanted to succeed in both. I knew this would be a challenge but I didn’t realize how difficult it was until my class in the high school began. I got on well with other girls. After school, I often had ice cream with them first instead of finishing my homework before it was time to hand it in. I always finished it the next day between classes. I knew it wasn’t very good and the grades that I got showed I was not hard working enough. I realized that I needed to find some kind of balance. So I created a timetable that would divide my time between studying and relaxing. It was a good idea but I was only able to follow it for a few days because it made me under too much pressure. Later, I tried another plan. Each week I listed everything that I had to get done during the week and the time by which I had to get it done. The under the things I had to do, I made another list of things that I could do if I had time. It worked really well. Ever since I have never missed any important things. At the same time, I enjoyed my spare time a lot. Planning my time has been challenging, but I continue to do it. I’m glad that I’ve learned to balance things and it has helped prepare for what is coming after graduation. 56. At first, when did the writer always finish her homework?
