18、读下面短文,从短文中所给各题的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。“Down-to-earth” means someone or something that is honest, practical and easy to deal with. It is _36_ to find someone who is down-to-earth. A person who is down-to-earth is easy to talk to _37_ accepts other people as equals. A down-to-earth person is ju

19、st the _38_ of someone who acts important and proud.Down-to-earth persons may be _39_ members of society, of course. But they do not let their importance “go to their _40_”. They do not _41_ themselves to be better persons than others of less importance, someone who is filled with his own importance

20、 and _42_, often without cause, is said to have “his nose in the air”. There is no way a person with his nose in the _43_ can be down-to-earth. Americans use another expression that means almost the same 44 “down-to-earth”. The expression is “both-feet-on-the-ground”. Someone with both-feet-on-the-g

21、round is a person _45 a good understanding of reality. He has what is called “_46_ sense”. He may have _47_, but he does not allow them to _48_ his knowledge of what is real. The opposite kind of person is _49_ who has his “head-in-the-clouds”. A man with his heads in the clouds is a dreamer whose m

22、ind is not in the _50 world.Sometimes _51_ a dreamer can be brought back to earth. _52_ words from a teacher can usually bring a day-dreaming student down-to-earth. Usually, the person who is down-to-earth is very _53_ to have both feet on-the-ground._54_ we have both our feet on-the-ground, when we

26、共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)阅读下列短文从每题所给的四个选项(A,B,C和D)中,选出最佳选项。ACOLUMBUS, Ohio The heart operation taking place in the pale-green operating room at the Ohio State University Medical Center was unusual. The patient, a 62-year-old man, was made to sleep, tied with blue drapes(消毒帷帘)and lying face up on a narrow t

27、able. But no one was touching him. Instead, the operation was being performed by a robot, whose three metal arms went through pencil-sized holes in the mans chest. At the ends of the robots arms were tiny metal fingers, with turning wrists, which held a tiny instrument, a light and a camera. The rob

28、ots arms and fingers were controlled by Dr. Randall K. Wolf, sitting at a computer in a corner of the operating room about 20 feet away.This sort of operation, heart surgeons say, is the start of what may be the biggest change in their profession since heart bypass surgery(心脏搭桥手术) began nearly 30 ye

29、ars ago. “The reason we make cuts is that we have big hands,” said Dr. Wolf , the director of the surgery at Ohio State. The robots dainty fingers, no longer than a nail on the small finger, at the end of the long sticks could work better.Eventually, surgeons believe, most heart surgery will be done

30、 by robots whose arms are put in through pencil-sized holes punched in patients chests. Instead of directly staring into a patients body, surgeons will view magnified images of the operation on computer screens. In theory, the doctor would not have to be in the same room, or even the same country, a

31、s the patient.56. In this passage, the underlined word “dainty” means _.A. quickB. weakC. fatD. small57.The main idea of this passage is that heart surgery by robots _.A. is quicker than surgery done by doctorsB. may replace surgery done by doctors was C. is a new and risky procedureD. developed at

32、Ohio State University51. According to the passage, the reason that most operations require large cuts is that _.A. patients have large organsB. large cuts take less timeC. surgeons have large handsD. large cuts cost less money59.Based on the information in this passage, all of the following conclusi

33、ons are true EXCEPT_.A. All doctors at Ohio State develop new surgical techniquesB. Robot surgery is being developed at Ohio StateC. Robot surgery will be used on many patients in the near futureD. Many hospitals will eventually offer robot surgery to patients BEverybody in this world is different f

34、rom one another. But do you know that understanding “differences” can help you better manage your money?As we grow up, we gradually develop a set of our own values or beliefs.These are influenced by society, our family, the education we receive and so on.Once this value system is set up , its not ea

35、sy to change later in life.Financial experts say that every one also has their own beliefs of how to manage their finances. This is part of our value system and it has a great impact on the way we look after our money.According to our different values, edperts put us in three categories. They are: t

36、he ant, the cricket and the smail.lThe ant - works firstJust like ants who work heart and soul in summer in order to store food for winter, these people dont care about enjoying the moment. They work very hard and save money they earn so that they can enjoy life when they get old and retire. The ant

37、 loves to save but they could make more out of their money if they were willing to invest in some funds and stocks with low risk.lThe cricket - funs firstThe cricket wants to enjoy everything now and doesnt think too much about the future. They even vorrow money when they really want something. Many

38、 young people now belong to this group. These people have few savings. When they get old, they might have problems. They should learn to save and buy insurance.lThe snail- lives under pressureThe snail refers to people who make life difficult for themselves. They take big longterm loans form the ban

39、k in order to buy things such as luxury houses. They are happy to take big loans even though they are not sure they can afford them. This can cause problems in the future. They should plan more carefully.60. Which statement is NOT true according to the passage.A. Our values or beliefs are easy to ch

40、ange in our life.B. Our values or beliefs are influenced by society, our family, the education we received and so on.C. As soon as ones value system is set up, its difficult to change later in life.D. As we grow up, we develop our own beliefs of how to mange our finances.61.Many young people who enj

41、oy everything now and think little about the future belong to _group.A. the antB. the cricket C. the snailD. the optimist62. The experts suggest people belong to the ant group _.A. save money as much as they couldB. should not care about enjoying the momentC. work much harder than beforeD. invest in

42、 some funds and stocks with low risk63. according to the author, our value system has _ on the way we look after our money.A. little influenceB. no influence C. a little influence D. great influenceCCulture determines what kind of thinking is important and what kind is not so important. Learners use

43、 the language, tools, and practice of their culture to learn concepts. Although students have their individual learing styles, their learning styles are often combined with cultural values. For example, Navajo (North American Indians living in Arizona, New Mexico, and Utah) children often learn firs

44、t by observing and listening. Then, when read, they continue learing on their own in cooperation with and under the supervision of and adult. In this way, the children learn all the skills they need. Navajo children speak very little during this process. In contrast, many African-American children l

45、earn effectively by acting and performing, they like classroom activities such as oral presentations, role-plays, and framatic performances. Lots of talking is useful for these students. Another ways of learning is through reading and writing. Asian students generally need writing to support their l

46、eaning, and therefore do well in classes where there is lots of writing. It is common to see Japanese students pay special attention to the spelling of words they have learned. They are more comfortable seeing new materials than hering them. Koreans are believed to be the most visual (can be seen) l

47、earners. So, although learning styles greatly determine how a person takes in new materials, ones culture also influences how he learns.64.The passage mainly tells us about_.A. the different culture styleB. cultural influence upon learning styleC. how to teach children from different culturesD. the

48、importance of learning styles65. In the passage _ different cultures are mentioned.A. three B. two C. fourD. five66. _ do well in classes where there is lots of writing.A. African-American childrenB. Navajo childrenC. Asian students D. Koreans67. The underlined part “In contrast” in this passage mea

49、ns _.A. ThereforeB. Instead C. Consequently D. SimilaryDThat “Monday moring feeling” could be a crushing pain in the chest which leaves you sweating and gasping for breath. Recent research from Germany and Italy shows that heart attacks are more common on Monday moring and doctors blame the stress o

50、f returnign to work after the weekend break. The risk of having a heart attack on any given day shoud be one in seven, but a six- year study helped by researchers at the Free Uiversity of Berlin of more than 2,600 Germans showed that the avwrage person had a 20 percent higher chance of having a hear

51、t attack on a Monday than on any other day.Working Germans are particularly ont protected against attack, with a 33 percent higher risk at the beginning of the working week. Non-workers, by comparison, appear to be no more at risk on a Monday than any other day.A study of 11 000 Italians proved 8 a.

52、m. on a Monday morning as the most stressful time for the heart, and both studies showed that Sunday is the least stressful day, with fewest heart attacks in both countries.The finding could lead to a better understanding of what is the immediate cause of heart attacks, according to Dr Stefan Wildis

53、h of the Free University. “We know a lot about long-term risk factors such as smoking and so we cant give clear advice on how to prevent them,” he said. Monday mornings have a double helping of stress for the working body as it makes a rapid change from sleep to activity, and from the relaxing weeke

54、nd to the pressures of work.“When people get up, their blood pressure and heart rate go up and there are hormonal(荷尔蒙)changes in their bodies,” Wildish explained. “All these tings can have an unfavorable effect in the blood system and increase the risk of a clot(血凝块) which will cause a heart attack.

55、”“When people return to work after a weekend off, the pace of their life chandes. They have a higher workload, more stress, more anger and more physical activities,” said Wildish.68.The studies mentioned in Para2 and Para4 show _.A. Monday is the least stressful day, with fewest heart attacks in bot

56、h contriesB. Sunday is the least stressful day, with fewest hearts atacks in both countriesC. Sunday is the most stressful day, with most heart attacks in both countriesD. the average person had a 20 percent higher chance of having a heart attack on a Monday than on Saturday.69. Monday morning feeli

57、ng, as this passage shows,_.A. is not as serious as people thoughtB. is created by researchers in Germany and ItalyC. is the first killer in Germany and ItalyD. is harmful to working people in developed countries70. It can be learned from this passage that the heart attack has something to do with a

58、ll the following except _.A. blood typeB. blood pressureC. hormonal changes D. heart rate71. To protect people from a heart attack, doctors have paid much attention to_.A. peoples working placeB. peoples working time C. peoples diet and lifetyleD. peoples nationalitiesEAbout six years ago I was eati

59、ng lunch in a restaurant in New York City when a woman and a young boy sat down at the next table. I couldnt help overhearing parts of their conversation. At one point the woman asked, “So, how have you been?” And the boy-who could not have been more than seven or eight years old replied. “Frankly,

60、Ive been feeling a little depressed lately.”This incident stuck in my mind because it confirmed(确认)my growing belief that children are changing. As far as I can remember, my friends and I didnt find out we were “depressed”, that is, in low spirits, until we were in high school.Undoubtedly a change i

61、n children has increased steadily in recent years. Children dont seem childlike anymore. Children speak more like adults, dress more like adults and behave more like adults than they used to.Whether this is good or bad is difficult to say, but it certainly is different. Childhood as it once was no l

62、onger exists. Why?Human development depends not only on born biological states, but also on patterns of gaining social knowledge. Movement from one social role to another usually involves learning the secrets of the new social positions. Children have always been taught adult secrets, but slowly and

63、 in stages; traditionally, we tell sixth graders things we keep hidden from fifth graders.In the last 30 years, however, a secret-revelation(揭示)machine has been equipped in 98 percent of American homes. It is called television. Television passes information to all viewers alike, whether they are chi

64、ldren or adults. Unable to resist the temptation(诱惑), many children turn their attention from printed texts to the less challenging, more attractive moving pictures.Communication through print, as a matter of fact, allows for a great deal of control over the social information which children will ga

65、in. Children must read simple books before they can read complex materials.72According to the author, feeling depressed is .Aa sure sign of a mental problem in a childBa mental state present in all humans, including childrenCsomething that cannot be avoided in childrens mental developmentDsomething

66、hardly to be expected in a young child73According to the author, that todays children seem adultlike results from .Athe widespread influence of televisionBthe poor arrangement of teaching contentCthe fast pace of human scientific developmentDthe rising standard of living74Traditionally, a child is s

67、upposed to learn about the adult world .Athrough connection with societyBnaturally without being taughtCgradually and under guidanceDthrough watching television75What does the author think of the change in todays children?AHe feels their adultlike behavior is so funny.BHe thinks the change worthy of

68、 note.CHe considers it a rapid development.DHe is happy about it.第卷(共35分)第四部分:写作(共两节,满分35分)第一节短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)此题要求改正所给短文的错误。对标有题号的每一行作出判断:如无错误,在该行右边横线上画一个勾();如有错误(每行只有一个错误),则按下列情况改正:该行多一个词:把多余的词用斜线()划掉;在该行右边横线上写出该词,并也用斜线划掉;该行缺一个词:在缺词处加一个漏字符号();在该行右边横线上写出该加的词;该行错一个词,在错的词下划一个横线;在该行右边横线上写出改正后的词。
