1 (黑龙江省鹤北林业局高级中学09-10学年期末考) I came to study
in the United States a year ago .Yet I did not
know the real American
society until I was
injured in a car accident because after the
accident I
had to see a doctor and go to
court.
After the accident .my roommate
called a doctor for me. I was very
grateful
and determined to repay him one day. But the next
day, he asked
me to pay him $$200 for what he
had done. I was astonished. He had good
reason
to charge me, he said. And if I wanted to collect
money from the
person who was responsible for
my injury, I‟d have to have a good lawyer.
And
only a good doctor can help me get a good lawyer
.Now that he had
helped me find a good doctor,
it was only fair that I should pay him.
But every day I went to see the doctor, I had to
wait about 50
minutes. He would see two or
three patients at the same time, and often
stop treating one so as to see another. Yet he
charged me $$115 each
time .The final
examination report consisted of ten lines, and it
cost me
$$215.
My lawyer was all smiles
the first time we met. But after that he
avoided seeing me at all. He knew very well
the other party was
responsible for the
accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply
waited
to collect his money. He was so
irresponsible that I decided to dismiss
him.
And he made me pay him $$770.
Now I had to
act as my own lawyer. Due to my inexperience, I
told
the insurance company the date I was
leaving America. Knowing that,
they played for
time…and I left without getting a cent.

2(福建省四地六校联考高一第一次月考) When
I was about 12, I had
an enemy, a girl who
liked to point out my shortcomings(缺点). Wee k by
week her list grew: I was very thin, I wasn’t
a good student, I talked too
much, I was too
proud, and so on. I tried to hear all this as long
as I could.
At last, I became very angry. I
ran to my father with tears in my eyes.
He listened to me quietly, then he asked. “Are
the things she says true or
not? Janet, didn‟t
you ever wonder what you‟re really like ? Well,
you
now have that girl‟s opinion. Go and make
a list of everything she said
and mark the
points that are true. Pay no attention to the
other things she
said.”
I did as he told me. To my great surprise, I
discovered that about half the
things were
true. Some of them I couldn‟t change (like being
very thin),
but a good number I could—and
suddenly I wanted to change. For the
first
time I go to fairly clear picture of myself.
I brought the list back to Daddy. He refused
to take it.“That‟s just for
you,” he said.“You
know better than anyone else the truth about
yourself.
But you have to learn to listen, not
just close your ears in anger and
feeling
hurt. When something said about you is true,
you‟ll find it will be
of help to you. Our
world is full of people who think they know your
duty.
Don‟t shut your ears. Listen to
them all, but hear the truth and do what
you
know is the right thing to do.”
Daddy‟s advice has returned to me at many
important moments. In my
life, I‟ve never had
a better piece of advice.
56. What did the father do after he had heard
his daughter‟s complaint?
A. He
told her not to pay any attention to what
her“enemy” had said.
B. He
criticized (批评) her and told her to overcome her
shortcomings.
C. He told her to
write down all that her“enemy” had said about her
and
pay attention only to
the things that
were true.
D. He refused to take the list and have a look
at it.
57.
What does “Week by week her list grew” mean?
A. Week by week she discovered more
shortcomings of mine and pointed
them out to
me.
B. She had made a list of my shortcomi
ngs and she kept on adding new
ones to it so
that it was growing longer and longer.
C. I was having more and more shortcomings as
time went on.
D. Week by
week, my shortcomings grew more serious.
58. Why did her father listen to her quietly?
A. Because he believed that what her
daughter‟s “enemy” said was
mostly true.
B. Because he had been so angry with his
daughter‟s shortcomings that
he wanted
to show this by keeping silent for a while.
C. Because he knew that his daughter would not
listen to him at that
moment.
D. Because he wasn‟t quite sure which girl was
telling the truth.
59.
Which do you think would be the best title for
this passage?
A. Not an
Enemy, but the Best Friend
B. The Best Advice I‟ve Ever Had
C. My Father
D. My Childhood

3(河北省唐山一中高一月考) n and his 13-year-old son Tony
are basketball fans. Last October 10th was
Tony’s birthday, so
n decided to drive him to
New York, for the first game of the
World
Series. They had no ticket but hoped to buy a pair
from scalpers.
It was a two hours’ ride.
After they arrived, they walked in the street
for two hours, carrying a sign(牌子) that read,
“ We need two tickets.”
There were many
scalpers around, but the cheapest ticket was $$200.
They
were about to leave when suddenly a man
stopped them. He took out two
tickets and
handed them to Mr. Clinton.
“How much do
you want?”
“Just a present,” said the man.
“Enjoy the game.”
Mr. Clinton wouldn‟t
accept, so the man explained, “I‟m Jackson.
Hans is my boss. He and his wife
haven‟t missed a World Series in 18
years. But
he is ill and can‟t watch the game this time. So
he told me to
give the two tickets to people
who I thought would actually enjoy the
game. A
lot of people looked as if they might just take
the tickets and sell
them. Then I saw you and
I followed you for a while. You seemed very
disappointed. You made me think of my dad and
me when I was a chi ld.
I dreamed of going to
a World Series game with my father. But my dream
never came true.”
How do you suppose
this made Mr. Clinton and his son feel? Here is
what Mr. Clinton said: “This is the most
wonderful thing that ever
happened to us. My
boy and I must have turned to each other over 30
times and said, „I can‟t believe this.‟ We
still never forget Jackson and
Hans.”
54.

paragraph means ______.

4 (河北省唐山一中高一月考) The sun was shining as Kevin
walked to
the old bench(长凳) where he met Mike
every afternoon after school.
They were good
friends and loved to play football. They didn’t
have
enough money to buy a real
football, but Mike had made a ball out of old
socks covered with a piece of plastic. It
wasn‟t beautiful, but it worked
well. The two
friends didn‟t stop kicking and running until very
late.
The next afternoon, Mike and Kevin
met again at the old bench. Soon
the home-made
ball was spinning(旋转) across the grass as the boys
laughed and shouted happily. The ball was
stopped by a boy wearing a
nice pair of
sneakers(运动鞋). Kevin was upset when he saw it was
Steven.
The next morning, Kevin’s
mother gave him an envelope(信封).
“Your uncle
sent you a birthday present,” she smiled. Kevin’s
eyes
grew big when he saw the $$100 bill. Later
that day, a pair of new sneaker
lay next to
his chair, and in the corner, a real football.
The next afternoon, Steven invited Kevin to
play football on the field
next to the
library. Steven did not want Mike to join them
only because
Mike‟s sneakers were dirty and he
was not good at football. When the
game was
over, Kevin and Steven walked past the old bench
where Mike
was sitting. Steven picked up a
stone and threw it at him. Kevin, holding
his
new football in his hands, walked on and did not
look back.
One afternoon, as Kevin walked
past the old bench, he saw something
lying
under it. He looked closer and saw it was the
home-made ball.
Kevin was full of sorrow at
the sight of his old home-made ball, and he
let out a sad sigh(叹气). As his sadness turned
to anger, he picked up his
new football
and kicked it into the air. Kevin kicked it so
hard that it flew
past the library and over
the school gate. Then Kevin walked to the bench
and picked up his home-made ball. Holding it
in his hands, Kevin sat
down and waited.
57. The best title for this passage is ______.
A. A Home-Made Football
B. Playing Football
C. Two Close Friends

(河南省方城县月考) We often hear people talking about a
generation
gap (代沟). The name is new, but the
idea is
old. Young people and their parents
don‟t understand each other. The

older, I learned about people who
were treated
badly, people who didn‟t have enough to eat. I
wanted to
help them, and I married a
girl who wanted to help them, too. We went to
meetings and talked a lot, but it didn‟t seem
to make much difference. ”
“Our children
grew up in a world at war. They didn‟t know when
the
fighting would stop. They wanted their
children to have nice clothes and
toys. They
didn‟t want to think about the future. They
thought nothing
could be done about it.”
“Now I have grandchildren, and they have their own
ideas. They are
trying to make the world
better. They are trying to help other people.
They‟re making people listen to them. I am
proud of their generation.”

13 (江苏省姜堰市溱潼中学高一10月月考) “BANG!” the
door
caused a reverberation (回声). It was just
standing there, with father
standing on one
side, and I on the other side.
We were
both in great anger. “Never set foot in this house
again!” stormed father. With tears welling up
in my eyes, I rushed out of
the flat and ran
along the street.
The street lights
were shining, causing rather sad-feeling. I
wandered aimlessly.
A young father
who held a child in his arms walked past me. I
felt as if I saw my childhood from another
space: happy and carefree.
But now … I
don‟t know whether it is because I have grown up
or because dad is getting old. We differ in
our ways of thinking. He
always put his
opinions and codes of behavior on me. Whenever I
do
something wrong, he never admits it.
We are just like two people coming
from two
different worlds. It feels like there is an iron
door between us
that can never be opened.
I wandered the streets, without a destination in
mind. My heart
was frozen on this hot summer
night. As I walked on there were fewer
and
fewer people on th e streets, until I had only the
street lights to keep
me company. When I
finally reached the high-rise apartment block in
which I lived ,I saw that the light was still
on.
I thought to myself: “Is father
waiting for me, or is he still angry
with me?”
In fac t, it was nothing. Perhaps, dad
was throwing away some of
his old stamps.
Perhaps he thought they were useless. I never had
the
courage to tell him that I liked
collecting stamps. I can’t stand his
outrageous(蛮横的)words: “I can’t throw you away,
let alone these old
papers?”
All
the lights were off except father‟s.
Dad was always like this. Maybe he didn‟t know how
to express
himself. After shouting at me, he
never showed any mercy or any
moments of
regret. After an argument he has the habit of
creeping up in
my sleep and then tucking me
underneath the covers.
This was how he
always was.He has been a leader for so long
that telling everyone else what to do has
become his second nature.
The
light was still on. “Am I wrong?” I whispered,
maybe…
With the key in hand, I was as nervous

decided to open
the door. As soon as I opened the door tears ran
down my

iron door that I had imagined between

not exist at all. Love—it second to none.

(江苏省启东中学高一第一次月考) Theodor Seuss Geisel was born
in Springfield, Massachusetts in 1904. He was
famous because of the
books he wrote for
children. They combine funny words, pictures, and
social opinion.
Dr Seuss wrote his first
book for children in 1937. It is called And to

15(江苏省启东中学高一第一次月考) I have a
neighbor we call
“Happy”. I have never seen
her angry at anything and never heard her
say
a harsh (苛刻) word to anyone or about anyone.
Happy and her husband Ben, 70, have a huge
garden. They spent many
happy hours together
working on it. Most of the neighbors watched
interestingly as Ben doubled the size of their
garden. As the cost of food
climbed faster
than Ben‟s beans, we all wished we also had such a
large
garden. As the rest of us spent our
dollars at the market, Happy could be
seen
picking beans in her back yard.
Last
month, Happy and Ben invited most of the
neighborhood over for an
“all-day food fest”.
We were told to bring gloves and arrive very early
in
the morning. We didn‟t know what was about
to take place.
By 9:00 am, there were nine of
us in the garden picking tomatoes, beans,
okra, and squash. By 10:00 am, there was lots
of laughter. We shared a lot
of stories. By
five o‟clock, everyone was a little drunk from the
wine and
beer. After dinner, we played games.
As we were leaving, Happy and Ben
handed each
of us a shopping bag filled with the bounty(收成)of
the day,
already packaged and frozen. What a
delightful gift!
Well, the point wasn‟t so
much about the food. The true gift was a day of
friends enjoying one another‟s company. None
of it would have happened
if it had been for
Happy and Ben‟s garden. Now they have a blog about
gardening in case we decided to plant a
garden. And I am so proud of my
tomato plants!

16 (江苏省王集中学高一第一次月考) How
to Become Cleverer
Once a boy came to ask a
fisherman how to become cleverer, because
his
mother always called him “foolish boy”.
“That‟s easy,” answered the fisherman. “I know one
way to make you
become cleverer.”
“Really?”
“Of course. It is said a fish
head is good for brain. If you eat one,
you‟ll
become cleverer indeed. Pay only three pounds for
one fish head.”
The boy paid him three
pounds and the fisherman cut off a fish head and
handed it to him.
A raw fish head is
not good—not even for a hungry boy to eat but the
boy ate it up in two gulps.
“Do you
feel anything?” asked the fisherman.
“Not
in my head,” said the boy.
The boy lay on
the ground and thought. “One whole fish costs only
two pounds. I had paid him three pounds for
the fish head. Why couldn‟t
I have the whole
fish for soup, a head for brain and one pound left
over?”
He jumped up and shouted at the
fisherman. “You thief! You are fooling
me!”
The fisherman laughed, saying, “The fish head
works now, you
see.”

simple plants.
They grow in fresh water or
salty water. Seaweed is algae that grow in
salty water. Seaweed is red or brown in color.
The Japanese people use
these plants from the

Kombu. Kombu is seaweed that has been dried,
cooked and pressed
together. Then it is dried
again and cut into long pieces. The Japanese eat
a lot of Kombu and like it very much.
Japanese farmers often use seaweed as fertilizer.
It makes their plants
grow better. Many
farmers also find seaweed makes a fine food for

animals.
From seaweed the
Japanese also get iodine(碘), which they sell to
other countries. Iodine is used in many ways

(河南省信阳商城高中高一月考) Along the river banks of the
Amazon and the Orinoco there lives a bird that
swims before it can fly,
flies like a fat
chicken, eats green leaves, has the stomach of a
cow and
has claws (爪) on its wings when
young. They build their homes about
4.6m above
the river, an important feature (特征) for the
safety of the
young. It is called the hoatzin.
In appearance, the birds of both sexes look
very much alike with brown
on the back and
cream and red on the underside. The head is small,
with a
large set of feathers on the top,
bright red eyes, and blue skin. Its nearest
relatives are the common birds, cuckoos. Its
most striking feature, though,
is only found
in the young.
Baby hoatzins have a claw on
the leading edge of each wing and another
at
the end of each wing tip. Using these four claws,
together with the beak
(喙), they can climb
about in the bushes, looking very much like
primitive(远古的) birds must have done. When the
young hoatzins have
learned to fly, they lose
their claws.
During the drier months between

SNAKES(蛇)
Some snakes eat other snakes,

does not do
them any harm(伤害). Snakes can swallow(吞下) things
that
are bigger around than they themselves
are. This is possible because the
jawbones(腭骨)
are loosely joined, and the mouth can
stretch(伸展)to
make room for a fat
animal. The snake’s slim body stretches to make
space for the animal when it is inside.
Many snakes eat birds’ eggs or frogs(青蛙). Others
eat pests
(害虫), mice and other animals that
harm crops on farms. Because
snakes do this
valuable work, you should never kill one. It is
too

the insect takes off, pulling the string in a
large
curve over the child's head. The child

The child is
African, and the toy is the African Goliath
beetle, the largest
insect in the world.
The Goliath is a true insect because it has
six legs and a body that is
divided into three
parts. Like all beetles, it has two pairs of
wings. The
front pair are thick and stiff and
protect the back pair, which are soft. It is
these soft back wings that make the beetle fly
forward. They also cause
the loud whirring
sound the beetle makes when it flies. To steer,
the
beetle twists and turns its legs the same
way you steer a bike by turning
its front
wheel.
