【題目】What are American high schools like? Well, I’m happy to tell you what I know.

When I started school here, it had already been a week since the school opened. At this school, freshmen usually go on a trip for about three days at the beginning of school. Unfortunately I missed that wonderful trip, which would have been the best time to get to know my classmates. I was really sad. I wished I’d known about it earlier.

Despite the disappointment, however, I gradually adapted to my new life and school. There is a space in the basement of the teaching building where students chat and meet each other. As we do not always have the same classrooms and classmates, the school wants us to get to know each other there. Students usually come to school early, sit in that space and have fun. Around the space, there are many lockers for students to leave their books in, so that students do not have to carry a heavy schoolbag everywhere.

It really surprises me that we have almost no textbooks. We only have textbooks for World History and Algebra 2 and they are big and heavy, like bricks. For other classes, we only need binders with paper in them. Without textbooks, students learn things freely and actively. For example, my humanities teacher just teaches us what is in her mind at the time. We never know what we will learn.

Another difference between American schools and Chinese schools is that American schools care about students’ morality more than their academic studies. For example, if you do not finish your homework, you will just be asked to do it later, but if you cheat or lie, you will get a warning or even be kicked out.

I think that most students here are good at schoolwork as well, but compared to Chinese students, they can make learning a more joyful experience. I think we should take the good points from our two different kinds of education to perfect our approach to studying.

【1】What made the writer sad at the beginning?

A. Being late for school. B. Not knowing anyone.

C. Being looked down upon. D. Missing the chance of the trip.

【2】Students go to the basement of the teaching building to _________.

A. have a free talk B. attend class

【4】What might stop a student’s schooling in American school?

C. Not finishing homework. D. Failing in the exam.

【答案】you cheat or lie B選項(xiàng)Cheating

【解析】考查教育文化類文章。本文關(guān)于是關(guān)于美國中學(xué)的情況，并談了美國學(xué)校和中國學(xué)校的不同之處

【1】D

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第三句Unfortunately I missed that wonderful trip,很遺憾，我錯(cuò)過了那次美妙的旅行，這是認(rèn)識(shí)我同學(xué)的最好時(shí)間。分析選項(xiàng)可知D項(xiàng)符合題意。

推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段第一句和第四句There is a space in the basement of the teaching building where students chat and meet each other. Students usually come to school early, sit in that space and have fun.在教學(xué)樓有一個(gè)地下室，學(xué)生們可以在那里聊天聚會(huì)。學(xué)生們通常來學(xué)校很早，坐在那個(gè)地方玩的開心。分析選項(xiàng)可知A項(xiàng)（自由交談）符合題意，故選A項(xiàng)。

【3】B

細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段第一句話“.It really surprises me that we have almost no textbooks.”可知作者一開始有點(diǎn)驚訝（Surprised），故選B項(xiàng)。

【4】B

【解題剖析】此題屬于細(xì)節(jié)理解中的語言轉(zhuǎn)述型。這是一類間接事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題，答案與題目在意義上運(yùn)用了詞義之間的轉(zhuǎn)述關(guān)系，即正確選項(xiàng)是原文有關(guān)詞語和句子的另一種表達(dá)。

【答案定位】。根據(jù)第5段最后一句“but if you cheat or lie, you will get a warning or even be kicked out.” 但如果你作弊或說謊，你會(huì)得到警告甚至被踢出學(xué)校不讓你上學(xué)。

【推理關(guān)系】題干What might stop a student’s schooling in American school? 文章內(nèi)容but if you cheat or lie, you will get a warning or even be kicked out.

【題目】Minutes after the last movie ended yesterday at the Plaza Theatre, employees were busy sweeping up popcorns and gathering coke cups. It was a scene that had been repeated many times in the theatre’s 75-year history. This time, however, the clean-up was a little different. As one group of workers carried out the rubbish, another group began removing seats and other theatre equipment in preparation for the building’s end.

The film classic The Last Picture Show was the last movie shown in the old theatre. Though the movie is 30 years old, most of the 250 seats were filled with teary-eyed audience wanting to say goodbye to the old building. Theatre owner Ed Bradford said he chose the movie because it seemed appropriate. The movie is set in a small town where the only movie theatre is preparing to close down.

Bradford said that large modern theatres in the city made it impossible for the Plaza to compete. He added that the theatre’s location (位置) was also a reason. “This used to be the centre of town, ”he said. “Now the area is mostly office buildings and warehouses.”

Last week some city officials suggested the city might be interested in turning the old theatre into a museum and public meeting place. However, these plans were abandoned because of financial problems. Bradford sold the building and land to a local development firm, which plans to build a shopping complex on the land where the theatre is located.

The theatre audience said goodbye as Bradford locked the doors for the last time. After 75 years the Plaza Theatre has shown its last movie. The theatre will be missed.

【1】In what way was yesterday’s clean-up at the Plaza special?

A. It signaled the close-down of the theatre.

B. It made room for new equipment.

C. It was done with the help of the audience.

D. It marked the 75th anniversary of the theatre.

【2】Why was The Last Picture Show put on?

A. It was an all-time classic.

B. The theatre owner found it suitable.

C. The audience requested it.

D. It was about the history of the town.

【3】What will probably happen to the building?

A. It will be repaired.

B. It will be turned into a museum.

C. It will be knocked down.

D. It will be sold to the city government.

【4】What can we infer about the audience?

A. They are disappointed with Bradford.

B. They are eager to have a shopping centre.

C. They are supportive of the city officials.

D. They are sad to part with the old theatre.

【題目】閱讀下面短文，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容寫一篇60詞左右的內(nèi)容概要。

Getting up early has been seen as a good habit since ancient times. Many years ago, people thought that if we went to bed early and got up early, we would be energetic (精力充沛的) the whole day. So, getting up early is of great importance to us all.

In fact, morning is the best time of a day. In the morning, the air is the freshest and people are usually in the best condition. Many of us may have the experiences that we memorize some things more quickly and correctly in the morning than any other time of the day. And it is certain that we find it easier to understand what we learn. If we get up early and do some morning exercises or only take a short walk in the morning, without doubt we can build up our bodies and become much healthier. Also we will have enough time to make a plan and get ready for our work or study of the day if we get up early. For example, if everyone in the family gets up early, the wife will have enough time to prepare the breakfast for the whole family. Children will have enough time to catch the school bus, and the husband will never forget to change his dirty shirt. Everything is in order. However, if we get up late, we’ll probably have to do everything in a hurry.

Getting up early is such a good habit that we should try our best to keep it. If we stick to (堅(jiān)持) getting up early every day, we will certainly benefit a lot from it.

Last year, my friend and I went to visit the Yellow Mountain. We carried two backpacks, that turned out to be pretty heavier for the hike. I was not an experiencing hiker and those endless steps make me want to return to the safe and comfortable ground. But my friend encouraged me great. "Look, the top is coming closer and closer. We are almost there." I pulled me together and kept going. After three-hour exhausting hike, and with wonderful sceneries on the way, we got to the top finally. For our pleasure, we also found a hotel that looked very much inviting.

【題目】 Born in the 1950s, shopping malls were once the symbol of the U.S. consumer culture, but many are now dying out.

Dying shopping malls can be found across the United States, often in middle-class suburbs. Economic decline in certain areas together with an upward trend towards online shopping and new forms of urban shopping centers have pushed the once seemingly unbeatable shopping malls into decline. It is estimated that 15 to 50 percent of shopping malls may close in the coming decades.

American shopping culture follows its housing culture. Numerous shopping malls were therefore born after the Second World War, as Americans with cars and fat wallets moved to the suburbs. U.S. shopping malls were built at a rapid pace as shoppers fled cities, peaking in the mid-1990s when they were being built at a rate of 140 a year. Thus, too many shopping malls are left though construction has gradually decreased since then.

Currently, there are around 1,500 shopping malls across the U.S. Most share a handful of similar feature. They usually contain two or three stories of stores separated by walkways. Food courts serve pizza and other fast food. Parking lots are big enough to easily misplace a car.

Shopping malls in Europe might contain grocery stores or childcare centers, while those in Japan are often built around mass transit (交通樞紐). But the suburban American shopping malls are hard to get to and mainly sell clothes and gifts.

As many shopping malls became redundant (過剩的), leaders in many U.S. towns who once fought for malls now struggle with how to transform them to new uses. Highland Mall in Texas is being transformed into a community college campus, and Lakeland Mall in Florida now houses a megachurch (大型教會(huì)). Others have been redeveloped to include housing, offices and even green space. However, it is hard to imagine every shopping mall meeting the demands for such transformations.

【1】What is this passage mainly about?

A.The introduction to American consumer culture.

B.The changes in Americans' shopping habits.

C.The growth of American shopping centers.

D.The decline of American shopping malls.

【2】When did the construction speed of IS shopping malls reach the highest point?

A.After the Second World WarB.In the mid-1990s.

C.After mass transit appeared.D.In the 2000s.

【3】What do many U.S. towns do to solve the redundant shopping malls?

A.They make them look different from each other.

B.They make them more accessible to the public.

C.They change them to serve other purposes.

D.They move them to the urban areas.
