A [2015 •遼寧沈陽四校聯(lián)考]

Shirley Temple Black, who lifted America's spirits as a bright-eyed child movie star during the Great Depression, peacefully passed away at her California home on February 10, 2014 at 85, surrounded by her family and caregivers.

Temple, born on April 23, 1928, started her entertain?ment career in the early 1930s and was famous by age 6. Temple was 3 when her mother put her in a dance school, where a talent scout spotted her and got her in Baby Bur-lesks , a series of short movies with child actors playing in adult movies.

Movie studio directors took notice of her and in 1934 she appeared in the film Stand Up and Cheer ! and her song and dance caught people's attention. Movies such as Little Miss Marker and Bright Eyes featured her signature song. In 1935, she received a special Oscar for her "outstanding con?tribution to screen entertainment" in the movie Stand Up and Cheer !

She made some 40 feature movies, including The Little Colonel , Poor Little Rich Girl , Rebecca of Sunnyhrook Farm, in 10 years, starring with big-name actors like Ran?dolph Scott, Lionel Barrymore and Jimmy Durante. Temple was a superstar before the term was invented. She said she was about 8 when crowds shouting their love for her made her realize she was famous. "I wondered why," she recalled. "I asked my mother and she said, ' Because your films make them happy.,"

Her child career came to an end at 12. She tried a few roles as a teenager―including starring opposite future presi?dent Ronald Reagan in That Ha gen Girl―but retired from the screen in 1950 at 22.

Temple was only 17 when she married to John Agar, who eventually appeared with her in two movies. Their five-year marriage produced a daughter. In 1950 she wed Charles Black in a marriage that lasted until his death in 2005. She and Black had two children. Temple's interest in politics was sparked in the early 1950s when her husband was called back into the Navy to work in Washington.

  1. For which movie did Shirley Temple win the Oscar?

    A. That Hagen GirL        B.  Little Miss Marker.

    C.  Stand Up and Cheer !     D.   The Little Colonel.


2.When Temple first caught the audience's eyes, .

A [2015 .湖北八市高三聯(lián)考] Alice's mother died when Alice was five years old. Al?ice, who grew up to be my mother, told me that after her mother's death her family was too poor to even afford to give her a doll.

In December 2012, I had a job at a local bank. One after?noon, we were decorating the tree in the bank lobby(大廳). One of my customers approached me with her beautiful hand?made dolls. I decided to get one for my daughter, Katie, who was almost five years old. Then I had an idea. I asked my customer if she could make me a special doll for my mother-one with grey hair and spectacles (眼鏡):a grandmother doll. And she gladly agreed.

A friend had told me that his dad who played Santa Claus would be willing to make a visit on Christmas morning to my home to deliver my Katie her presents, so I made some spe?cial arrangements.

Christmas Day arrived at the planned time; so did Santa Claus. Katie was surprised that Santa had come to see her at her own house. As Santa turned to leave, he looked once more into his bag and found one more gift. As he asked who Alice was, my mother, surprised at her name being called, indicated that she in fact was Alice. Santa handed her the gift, with a message card that read:

For Alice :

I was cleaning out my sleigh(雪橇) be fore my trip this year and came across this package that -was supposed to be delivered on December 25, 1953s The present inside has aged , but I felt that you might still wish to have it. Many apologies for the lateness of the gift.

                            Love,

                           Santa Claus

My mother's reaction was one of the most deeply emo?tional scenes I have ever seen. She couldn't speak but only hold the doll she had waited for fifty-nine years to receive as tears of joy ran down her cheeks. That doll, given by " San?ta" ,made my mother the happiest "child" that Christmas.

1.The reason why the writer's mother couldn't have a doll when young was that___________ .

 

A.     Santa Claus forgot to deliver the doll to her

B.     her daughter couldn't make a doll by herself

C.     her parents left the doll in the Santa Claus' sleigh

D.     her family was badly off when she was a child

2.It can be inferred from the passage that______________ .

A. the writer's father played Santa Claus

B.the writer's mother was already in her sixties when she received the doll

C. the writer asked one of her friends to make the doll for her mother

D. Santa Claus was too careless to deliver the doll on time

 

3. When the writer's mother received the doll that she had waited so long, she was .

 

A.     pleased and inspired

B.     puzzled and angry

C.     happy and excited

D.     curious and grateful

4.The best title for this passage could be " ".

 

A.     A doll from Santa

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。

Although most games have winners and losers, the goal of sports is not to win every game. The real goals include get?ting exercise , having fun , and learning important social skills, like sportsmanship.

Good sportsmanship is all about respect. Good sports re?spect the other players on their teams. They respect the play?ers on opposing teams. They respect coaches, and they also respect the referees or other officials involved in their games.

9 They yell at their teammates and they talk back to coa?ches or referees.

Kids usually learn sportsmanship―good and bad―from the adults in their lives. 10 If parents and coaches show disrespect to other fans, referees, or each other, kids will likely act the same way on the field.

11 Some of them are very basic and easy to do, like shaking hands with other players before a game. Other exam?ples may take a little more courage, such as acknowledging a great play made by the opposing team.

Learning good sportsmanship is important because it helps you develop an attitude of graciousness (禮貌)and re?spect that will carry over into all the other areas of your life!

12 Being a good sport in the classroom will eventually lead to being a good sport in the workplace.

So be a good sport in whatever you do! 13 When others see you acting in a way that makes it clear that winning isn't the most important thing, you can move on to focusing on the important things, like having fun, getting exercise, and improving your skills.

A.     Good sportsmanship can be shown in many ways.

B.     On the contrary, bad sportsmanship is all about disre?spect.

C.     The example you set can be a powerful teaching tool for others.

D.     Players' parents and coaches set examples that kids tend to follow.

E.     We can be good sports by encouraging others but not laughing at them.

F.      Starting as a good sport earlier will help you be a good sport as you get old.

G.     If you're a good sport on the field, you'll also likely be a good sport in the classroom.

A [2015 •成都外國語學(xué)校高三月考]

Most Americans would have a difficult time telling you, specifically* what are the values which Americans live by. They have never given the matter any thought.

Over the years I have introduced thousands of interna?tional visitors to life in the United States. This has caused me to try to look at Americans through the eyes of foreign visi?tors. I am confident that the values listed in this booklet describe most (but not all) Americans, and that understand?ing these values can help you, the international visitor, un?derstand Americans.

It is my belief that if foreign visitors really understand how deeply these 13 values are ingrained in Americans, they will then be able to understand 95 % of American actions which might otherwise appear "strange"confusingor "unbelievable" when evaluated from the perspective of the foreigners' own society and its values.

The different behaviour of a people or a culture make sense only when seen through the basic beliefs, assumptions and values of that particular group. When you encounter an action, or hear a statement in the United States which surpri?ses you, try to see it as an expression of one or more of the values listed in this booklet.

1.An ordinary American can't tell you his/her value system
because_________ .

 A.     this is something an American lives by

B.     everyone will have his/her own value system

C.     he/she has never thought about it

D.     values are something often in his/her thought

2.The author lists 13 values in his booklet to .

 A.     invite foreigners to visit America

B.     look at Americans through the eyes of foreign visitors

C.     describe the confusing actions of most Americans

D.     help international visitors understand Americans

3. The underlined word "ingrained" in Paragraph 3 most probably means "__________ ,

A. rooted in minds                   B.  found in grains

C.  planted for food                D.  prepared with grains

4. Visitors sometimes find Americans behave in a strange, con?fusing or unbelievable way probably because .

B [2015 •鄭州高中畢業(yè)年級(jí)第一次質(zhì)檢]

Foxes and farmers have never got on well. These small dog-like animals have long been accused of killing farm ani?mals. They are officially classified as harmful and farmers try to keep their numbers down by shooting or poisoning them.

Farmers can also call on the services of their local hunts to control the fox population. Hunting consists of running af?ter a fox across the countryside, with a group of specially trained dogs, followed by men and women riding horses. When the dogs eventually catch the fox, they kill it or a hunt?er shoots it-People who take part in hunting think of it as a sport. They wear a special uniform of red coats and white trousers, and follow strict codes of behaviour. But owning a horse and hunting  regularly   are   expensive,   so   most   hunters are wealthy.

It is estimated that up to 100,000 people watch or take part in fox-hunting. But over the last couple of decades the number of people who are against fox-hunting, because they think it is brutaK殘暴的),has risen sharply. Nowadays it is rare for a hunt to pass off without some kind of conflict be?tween hunters and hunt opponents (反對者).Sometimes these incidents lead to violence, but mostly opponents dis?courage the hunt by misleading riders and disturbing the trail of the fox's smell, which the dogs follow.

Noisy conflicts between hunters and opponents have be?come so common that they are almost as much a part of hun?ting as the pursuit of foxes itself. But this year supporters of fox-hunting face a much bigger threat to their sport. A La?bour Party Member of Parliament(英國議會(huì)),Mike Foster, is trying to get Parliament to approve a new law which will make the hunting of wild animals with dogs illegal. If the law is passed, wild animals like foxes will be protected under the ban in Britain.

5.     Wealthy people in Britain have been hunting foxes to .

 

A.     benefit the farmers

B.     get entertainment

C.     show off their wealth

D.     limit the fox population

6.     The opponents of fox-hunting often discourage the game
by_________ .

 

A.     using violence

B.      taking legal action

C.      seeking help from farmers

D.     confusing the fox hunters

7.     A new law may be passed by the British Parliament to

 

A.     protect wild animals like foxes

B.     control fox-hunting on a large scale

C.     prohibit farmers from hunting foxes

D.     standardize the behaviour of fox-hunting

8.     What can be inferred from this passage?

 

A.     Limiting the fox population is unnecessary.

B.     Killing foxes with poison is not allowed by law.

C.     Hunting foxes with dogs is considered cruel and vio?lent.

D.     Fox-hunting often causes conflicts between hunters and farmers.
