24、finery fire in a small town. Flames shot hundreds of feet into the air. The sky was thick with grimy black smoke. The heat was intenseso intense that firefighters had to park their trucks a block away and waited for the heat to die down before they could begin to fight the fire. However, it was abou
25、t to rage out of control.Then, all of a sudden, from several blocks away came a fire truck racing down the street. With its brakes screeching, it hit the curb in front of the fire. The firefighters jumped out and began to battle the blaze. All the firefighters who were parked a block away saw this,
26、and they jumped into their trucks, drove down the block and began to fight the fire, too. As a result of that cooperative effort, they were just barely able to bring the fire under control.The people who saw this teamwork thought, “My goodness, the man who drove that lead fire truckwhat an act of br
27、avery!” They decided to give him a special award to recognize him for his bravery in leading the charge.At the ceremony the mayor said, “Captain, we want to honor you for a fantastic act of bravery in leading the charge. You prevented the loss of property, perhaps even the loss of life. If there is
28、one special thing you could havejust about anythingwhat would it be?”Without hesitation, the captain replied, “Your Honor, a new set of brakes of my truck would be great!”56. How was the captain probably feeling when his truck charged down the street to the fire?A. enthusiasticB. encouragedC. embarr
29、assedD. upset57. Which of the following statements is true?A. The captain was driving his truck fast because he was in a hurry to fight the fire.B. There was something wrong with the brakes of the truck.C. The mayor praised the captain for his honesty.D. The people decided to honor the captain becau
30、se he fought the fire bravely.58. Why did all the firefighters park their trucks a block away from the fire?A. Because they were waiting for the captain to arrive.B. Because the smoke was too thick to see anything.C. Because the fire was about to go out of control.D. Because they had to wait for the
31、 intense heat to die down a bit.BThe English language was first introduced to the Americas by British colonization, beginning in 1607 in Jamestown, Virginia. Similarly, the language spread to numerous other parts of the world as a result of British trade and colonization elsewhere and the spread of
32、the former British Empire, which, by 1921, held sway over a population of 470570 million people, approximately a quarter of the worlds population at that time.Over the past 400 years the form of the language used in the Americasespecially in the United Statesand that used in the United Kingdom have
33、diverged in a few minor ways, leading to the versions now occasionally referred to as American English and British English. Differences between the two include pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, spelling, punctuation, idioms, and formatting of dates and numbers. A small number of words have complet
34、ely different meanings in the two versions or are even unknown or not used in one of the versions. One particular contribution towards formalizing these differences came from Noah Webster, who wrote the first American dictionary (published 1828) with the intention of showing that people in the Unite
35、d States spoke a different dialect from Britain, much like a regional accent.It may be the case that increased worldwide communication through radio, television, the Internet and globalization has reduced the tendency towards regional variation. This can result either in some variations becoming ext
36、inct (for instance, the wireless, being progressively superseded by the radio) or in the acceptance of wide variations as perfectly good English everywhere.Chief among other native English dialects are Canadian English and Australian English, which rank third and fourth in the number of native speak
37、ers. For the most part, Canadian English, while featuring numerous British forms alongside native Canadianisms, shares vocabulary, phonology and syntax with American English, leading many to recognize North American English as an organic grouping of dialects. Australian English likewise shares many
38、American and British English usages alongside plentiful features unique to Australia, and retains a significantly higher degree of distinctiveness from both the larger varieties than does Canadian English. South African English, New Zealand English and the Hiberno-English of Ireland are also distinc
39、tive and rank fifth, sixth and seventh in the number of native speakers.59. Which of the following native English dialects ranks fifth in the number of native speakers?A. Canadian EnglishB. South African EnglishC. the Hiberno-English of IrelandD. Australian English60. Which of the following is NOT t
40、he reason why the English language spread to numerous parts of the world?A. British colonizationB. the spread of the former English EmpireC. British trade around the worldD. a large British population61. It can be inferred from the passage that_A. Australian English has developed more characteristic
41、s of its own than Canadian English.B. it is obvious that some variations will become extinct due to worldwide communication.C. everyone will be speaking “perfectly good English” in the future.D. almost a quarter of the worlds population spoke British English in 1921.62. This passage is intended _A.
42、to persuade us to speak perfectly good English in the future.B. to draw peoples attention to the extinction of different English dialects.C. to give the readers some useful information on variation of the English language.D. to do a research on how the English language has influenced the world.C Cre
43、epy Unsolved Murders That Happened on HalloweenHalloween is the one night of the year where being scared is supposed to be good fun. However, amid all the harmless activities like trick-or-treating, sometimes genuinely frightening and disturbing things can happen. October 31 has been the date of som
44、e horrific murders and unexplained disappearances, which are far more terrifying than any ghosts, goblins, or witches. Because they happened to take place on Halloween, the following mysteries have an extra aura of creepiness to them, and they remain unsolved to this day.1Hyun Jong was a 21-year-old
45、 South Korean student attending Pennsylvania State University. In 2001, after leaving the Halloween party in a club, she was dropped off at her apartment by her friends at 4:00 AM. This was the last anyone ever saw of her. A search was conducted of her apartment. There was no sign of any struggle, b
46、ut many of her belongings were there, indicating that she had gone inside after being dropped off. But what happened to her afterward? Although some evidence indicated her death, her body has never been found.2On Halloween night in 1977, the parents of 19-month-old Nima Louise Carter placed their ch
47、ild inside her crib. The next morning, Nimas parents were shocked to discover that she was missing. Since the windows were locked, its theorized that someone must have been hiding in the closet and took the child out of the house while her parents were asleep. The police took it as child abduction.
48、A month later, a group of kids were playing in an abandoned house four blocks away. When they opened up the houses refrigerator, they received a horrifying shock when the body of an infant came tumbling out. The child was identified as Nima Louise Carter, who died of suffocation(窒息). 3Chris Jenkins
49、was a 21-year-old student who visited a bar on Halloween night in 2002. After leaving the bar around midnight, Chris disappeared without a trace. He remained a missing person for four months until his body was discovered in the Mississippi River. Since Chris was still wearing his Halloween costume,
50、all indications were that he died shortly after he disappeared. Since his cause of death was determined to be drowning, authorities initially(初步的) believed it was an accident or suicide. His parents refused to believe this and appealed for a more careful investigation. Finally, in 2006, the death wa
51、s reclassified as a murder case.4Sometime during the early morning Halloween hours of 1981, a Manhattan couple named Ronald Sisman and Elizabeth Platzman were murdered in their apartment. The couple was severely beaten before being shot in the head, execution-style, and the apartment was in a comple
52、te mess. Sisman was rumored to be involved in drugs, so authorities initially believed that to be the motive for the killings. However, the case took a turn when a prisoner claimed that one of his fellow inmates(狱友) had somehow predicted the crime weeks before it actually happened. The police then q
53、uestioned the inmate, yet no insightful information was brought out.63. Whose body was found inside a fridge?A. Chris JenkinsB. Hyun JongC. Nima Louise CarterD. Sisman Platzman64. What does the underlined “this” refer to in the third case?A. the authorities initial conclusionB. the cause of their so
54、ns deathC. their sons deathD. the investigation65. Of the four cases, at first the police had wrong conclusions except in _A. the Hyun Jong caseB. the Nima Louis Carter caseC. the Chris Jenkins caseD. the Platzmans case66. Which of the following facts is mentioned in the passage?来源:学优高考网A. Chris Jen
55、kins parents persuaded the police to dig deeper into their sons death.B. Ronald and Elizabeth were beaten to death in their apartment.C. Someone must have hidden inside Hyun Jongs apartment and took her away.D. Nima Louis Carter was frozen to death in a fridge.DRabindranath Tagore(泰戈尔) was an Indian
56、 writer and poet, who was the first non-European to win the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1913. Composed of 326 short verses, Stray Birds(飞鸟集) is a collection of short verses translated from Bengali into English by the poet himself, where Tagore spiritualizes nature into the experiences of human exis
57、tence while demonstrating his love for nature and simplicity through poetic words.Now read the following verses taken from Stray Birds(1916) and try to answer the questions.Man does not reveal himself in his history, he struggles up through it. (verse 52)The cloud stood humbly(谦逊的) in a corner of th
58、e sky.The Morning crowned it with splendour(光辉). (verse 100)Man is worse than an animal when he is an animal. (verse 248)Bees sip honey from flowers and hum their thanks when they leave.The gaudy butterfly is sure that the flowers owe thanks to him. (verse 127)The stream of truth flows through its c

63、 of the verses might be most suitable said to parents, telling them not to spoil their children with wealth? 来源:学优高考网A. verse 231B. verse 71C. verse 127D. verse 100EWhy Cuba Move Will Help America?In opposing President Barack Obamas opening to Cuba, Floridas Republican senator, Marco Rubio, explaine
64、d, This entire policy shift announced today is based on an illusion, on a lie, the lie and the illusion that more commerce and access to money and goods will translate to political freedom for the Cuban people. Rubio has correctly touched on the hottest issue. But theory, logic and history suggest t
65、hat hes wrong in his conclusions.I would recommend to Rubio one of the classics of conservative(保守的) thought, Milton Friedmans Capitalism and Freedom. He doesnt have to spend too much time on it. The first chapter outlines the relation between economic freedom and political freedom. The point Friedm
66、an makes in the book is one that Americas founding fathers well understood. Drawing on the political philosopher John Locke, they believed that the freedom to buy, sell, own and trade were primary elements of human freedom and individual autonomy(自治). As they expand, liberty expands.This is not just
67、 theory, of course. Over the last two centuries, the countries that embraced more commerce and access to money and goods in Rubios phrase - Britain, America, then Western Europe and East Asia - have moved toward greater prosperity, but also political freedom. If you exclude oil-rich countries, where
68、 money is not earned but dug from the ground, on the whole there has been a strong connection between economic freedom and political freedom.In Latin America today, democracy(民主政治) and markets have acted to strengthen each other, transforming the continent, which 30 years ago was almost entirely rul
69、ed by dictatorships(独裁) to one that is today almost entirely ruled by democracies. After opening up its economy in the 1970s, Chile began to grow, but that growth then produced a stronger civil society that over time contributed to the end of the dictatorship within the country. Yet Cuba is an outli
70、er, one of the last regimes in Latin America that has embraced neither markets nor ballots. The Obama administration is acting on the theory that more commerce, capitalism, contact, travel and trade will empower the people of Cuba and thus gives them a greater voice in their political future. And so
71、 the first point to make is that it will help Cubans economically - it will raise their incomes, their standard of living, and boost access to technology. These are all good things in and of themselves.But easing the embargo(贸易禁止) will also help Americans, who will benefit from being able to trade w
72、ith a neighbor. This is the reason that conservatives have long understood that free trade is not a gift bestowed on someone. It helps both countries and in particular, helps the United States. Thats why the Wall Street Journals editorial page - bastion of conservative thought - has been an advocate
73、 on lifting the trade embargo against Cuba, which is a far larger step than Obamas normalization.71. What message does the writer try to deliver through this passage?A. President Obama is making a wrong move opening to Cuba.B. Marco Rubio is making a mistake criticizing Obamas normalization policy.C
74、. Obamas policy will benefit both Cubans and Americans economically and politically.D. Obamas decision agrees with the fact that economic freedom grows with political freedom.72. How does the writer prove his point in paragraph 3 and 4?A. by analyzing cause and effectB. by giving examplesC. by makin
75、g comparison and contrastD. by raising questions73. What does the underlined phrase “translate to” most probably mean?A. connect withB. adapt toC. get down toD. lead to 74. It is implied in the passage that_A. The Obama administration wants to help people in Cuba, so President Obama decided to open
76、to Cuba.B. Chile is different from other countries in Latin America in that it has both economic and political freedom.C. Americas founding fathers based their ideology on the theory of Milton Friedman.D. The conservatives and the Wall Street Journal are on the same page on free trade.75. Who doesnt
77、 believe that democracy and markets strengthen each other?A. the writerB. President ObamaC. Milton FriedmanD.
