WHO IS YOUR ROLE MODEL? WHY?
My role model is my neighbor Ms. Li. She is in her eighties now but she is still young at heart. I often see her riding her bike in the park and she also spends time doing volunteer work. She helps me understand that people won’t be old if they still have a great love for life.
Adam
I miss Mrs. White most after primary school. She was our math teacher and always patient with us. She helped us to work out the answers ourselves, no matter how difficult the questions were. So Mrs. White is my role model, and I want to be a teacher like her in the future.
Betty
Norman Bethune was a Canadian doctor. In1938, Dr. Bethune came to China and helped treat the wounded. He often worked very hard without resting. Once, he managed to save over one hundred lives in sixty-nine hours. He is still remembered in both China and Canada today. So he is my role model.
Peter
Yuan Longping is my role model. He is one of the greatest agricultural (农业的) scientists of our time. He worked hard to grow better rice to solve the problems of food shortage. It is sad that Mr. Yuan has left us, but his dreams are carried by many plant and agricultural researches.
Emma
21. Who is Emma’s role model?
A. Ms. Li. B. Yuan Longping. C. Norman Bethune. D. Mrs. White.
22. What does Betty want to be in the future?
A A doctor. B. A scientist. C. A teacher. D. A volunteer.
23. What do we know about Ms. Li?
A. She worked in a hospital. B. She solved the food problems.
C. She is very patient with her students. D. She is old in age but young at heart.
B
“I wish I had straight hair”; “I’d like to be taller”. At times, we all want to look a bit more like someone else. However, the pictures we see on TV and social media can give us improper ideas about how our bodies “should” look. The truth is that everybody is different and that’s a good thing. Accepting and feeling good about our bodies is really important for our self-confidence.
Body confidence is when someone accepts and behaves kindly towards their body. That includes our size and shape, skin color, appearance and any physical disabilities. Jade Parnell from the Centre for Appearance Research (CAR), says that having body confidence is “about being accepting of your body and what it does for you”.
If you feel positively (积极地) about your body you are more likely to take care of it. Research has even shown that you are more likely to take part in activities and perform well in school. However, feeling sad about your body could make you step back, do less well at school and even feel down. Parnell says that the cost of trying to get the “perfect” appearance is high. She says, “If you’re spending a lot of time trying to look a certain way, you will have less time to spend with friends and to make important memories.”
It’s important to remember that everybody is different. To develop a positive body image, Parnell says, “Try to talk positively about your own body and other people’s bodies. Try not to pay too much attention to appearance. Instead, think about what your body does for you; do your legs make you run really fast?” She also suggests treating your body well by eating different kinds of foods, exercising to feel good and to have fun, and getting plenty of sleep. Remember that you are more than how you look.
24. The writer thinks that the pictures on TV and social media ________.
A. are perfect for people to follow B. show people how to behave kindly
C. suggest everyone is different D. may spread wrong ideas of looks
25. Parnell will agree that you should ________.
A. spend more money on your appearance B. avoid talking about others’ bodies
C. accept your body as it is D. remember what you used to be like
26. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To encourage readers to take more exercise. B. To lead readers to build up body confidence.
C. To remind readers not to eat too much food. D. To advise readers to treat their friends well.
C
Have you ever wondered if you see the same colours as other people? Most people know what blue is when they see it. It’s the colour of the sea and the sky. They see the colour and call it “blue” because they were taught the word and connected it with what they saw. But how do you know what you see as “blue” isn’t someone else’s “red”?
The ability to notice different colours is due to receptors (感受器) in our eyes which is also called cones (晶体). Light waves hit these receptors and they react depending on which colour the light is, sending signals to the brain. The brain then translates these signals to tell which colour light the eyes are receiving.
Some people’s receptors are more developed than others. People with weaker receptors usually have colour blindness. Those with more developed receptors can see more shades of one colour, which is the first way in which people may see colours differently from each other. We sometimes hear people having an argument (争论) about whether something is dark blue or black. It might be because one person has stronger receptors to translate the light than another.
In the past, most scientists would think that everyone saw colours in the same way. However, later scientists carried out a research on monkeys, in which they were injected (注射) with a virus affecting their receptors. They found that monkeys could see one more color—red, compared (比较) with the usual two colors—blue and green. This is because the neurons (神经元) in their brains automatically (自动地) adapted (适应) to be able to understand a new colour. This also might mean the neurons in human brains are not hardwired (与生俱来的) to understand which colour is which. Our brains and neurons may adapt to tell colors depending on stimulus (刺激物) .
Colour could be a very personal experience, unique (独一无二的) to everyone. So next time when you and your friend talk about your favourite colour, if yours is blue and your friend says red, you might actually be thinking about the same colour.
27. How does the author introduce his topic in Paragraph 1?
A. By doing a survey. B. By listing some numbers.
C. By giving an example. D. By using famous people’s words.
28. What’s the correct process (过程) of seeing colors?
A. cones send signals to the brain→the brain translates the signals→light waves hit cones→cones react to the light.
B. light waves hit cones→cones react to the light→cones send signals to the brain→the brain translates the signals.
C. light waves hit cones→cones send signals to the brain→the brain translates the signals→cones react to the light.
D. cones react to the light→cones send signals to the brain→light waves hit cones→cones react to the light.
29. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. People with weaker receptors are more likely to have colour blindness.
B. Our eyes are born to automatically tell colors.
C. Monkeys can usually see three colors.
D. Now most scientists still believe that everyone sees colors in the same way.
30. Which graph (图表) shows how the author organizes his ideas?
A. B. C. D.
D
(One day, Gulliver was caught in a storm and his ship hit a rock, then damaged. He was washed to the beach by sea wave. He walked and walked to find a city, but he was too tired and felt asleep. When he woke up, he found himself in Lilliput and a lot of tiny people were around him. )
The Emperor spoke in a high voice but I could hear all the words clearly. His followers and all the ladies wore rich and beautiful clothes. The ground where they were standing looked like gold and silver cloth.
His Majesty and I often spoke to each other but neither of us understood a single word. I tried words from many languages-Dutch, French, Spanish, Italian and Latin. No one could understand my words, not even the cleverest of the Emperor’s followers.
After about two hours, the Emperor left. His wife, children and their servants also went. There were strong guards around me. This was to stop the crowd of people from hurting me.
An officer told the guards to hold six men who made me angry. These men were given to me and I had to choose their punishment. I put five of them in my pocket. Then I pretended (假装) to eat the sixth man.
The poor man screamed terribly. The guards were worried when they saw my knife in my hand. Was I going to cut up the man? But I only cut the binding (捆绑物) round his hands. Then I put him on his feet and let him go. I lifted the other five men out of my pocket and put them gently on the ground too.
The people and the soldiers were very pleased with my great kindness. They told the Emperor about it immediately. The Emperor ordered his men to make a bed for me and they had to join six hundred of their little beds together to make one bed for me.
At the same time, the Emperor asked all his advisers for their advice on how to deal with me. They were very worried. If my binding was cut, I might be dangerous. I was eating so much food that soon all the people would be very hungry. The farmers could not grow enough food to feed all of us.
The wise men thought that they should kill me. But they would not be able to bury (埋葬) me. My dead body would smell. This might cause much illness all over the country.
31. To the tiny people, Gulliver was a/an ________ at first?
A. friend B. relative C. enemy D. tourist
32. The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 4 most probably refers to (指) “________”.
A. the guards B. the six men C. the officers D. the soldiers
33. Why were the tiny people pleased with Gulliver?
A. Because he gave them a lot of money. B. Because he killed the six man.
C. Because he was different from them. D. Because he was kind.
34. Put the following statements in the correct order according to the story.
①Emperor ordered his men to make a big bed for Gulliver.
②They couldn’t understand each other.
③The emperor spoke.
④Gulliver didn’t punish the six tiny people and let them go.
A. ③②①④ B. ②①③④ C. ①④③② D. ③②④①
35. Why didn’t the tiny people in Lilliput kill Gulliver finally?
A. His dead body would smell and cause much illness in their country.
B. He was so big and they didn’t have the weapon to kill him.
C. The king and his family liked him so much that they didn’t agree.
D. He was so strong that he would work for them.

Chinese people like the red colour a lot. Even now, Chinese people like to refer to ourselves as Chizi, meaning the red descendant.
Red represents the motherland and authority. Official uniforms of the Tang Dynasty were red. In the Qin Dynasty, red was used on official caps to show different rankings. As we know, the Five-starred Red Flag was first raised on October 1st, 1949. Even nowadays, headlines of official documents are painted in red. This is why they are called red-head documents.
For ordinary people, red stands for happiness. For example, the word “double happiness” used for weddings is red. The bride wears red clothes which are different from the white gowns of the west. During the Chinese Spring Festival, people will give red packets to the children to make them happy. Couplets hanging on both sides of the doors are written in red. The word red equals prettiness. The expression “hongyan” meaning red colour is a synonym of a beautiful girl. Red is also one of the most popular words used in the names of Chinese women. But in traffic lights red means stop driving. This is how the westerners like to use the red colour. It is because red is very bright, and is good for warning purposes. But it doesn’t really have any negative meanings.
61. What does Chizi mean?
_______________________________________________________
62. When was red used on official caps according to paragraph two?
_______________________________________________________
63. Why are official documents called red-head documents?
_______________________________________________________
64. How do people make their children happy during the Chinese Spring Festival?
_______________________________________________________
65. What do you think of the red colour?
_______________________________________________________
书面表达。
66. 每个人心中都有一个想感谢的人。近日,盐城教育电视台将举办题为 “The person I’d like to thank” 的英文演讲比赛,邀请全市中学生参赛。假设你是李华,请根据以下问题完成演讲稿。
1. Who is the person you would like to thank?

“I wish I had straight hair”; “I’d like to be taller”. At times, we all want to look a bit more like someone else. However, the pictures we see on TV and social media can give us improper ideas about how our bodies “should” look. The truth is that everybody is different and that’s a good thing. Accepting and feeling good about our bodies is really important for our self-confidence.
Body confidence is when someone accepts and behaves kindly towards their body. That includes our size and shape, skin color, appearance and any physical disabilities. Jade Parnell from the Centre for Appearance Research (CAR), says that having body confidence is “about being accepting of your body and what it does for you”.
If you feel positively (积极地) about your body, you are more likely to take care of it. Research has even shown that you are more likely to take part in activities and perform well in school. However, feeling sad about your body could make you step back, do less well at school and even feel down. Parnell says that the cost of trying to get the “perfect” appearance is high. She says, “If you’re spending a lot of time trying to look a certain way, you will have less time to spend with friends and to make important memories.”
It’s important to remember that everybody is different. To develop a positive body image, Parnell says, “Try to talk positively about your own body and other people’s bodies. Try not to pay too much attention to appearance. Instead, think about what your body does for you; do your legs make you run really fast?” She also suggests treating your body well by eating different kinds of foods, exercising to feel good and to have fun, and getting plenty of sleep. Remember that you are more than how you look.
24. The writer thinks that the pictures on TV and social media ________.
A. are perfect for people to follow B. show people how to behave kindly
C. suggest everyone is different D. may spread wrong ideas of looks
25. Parnell will agree that you should ________.
A. spend more money on your appearance B. avoid talking about others’ bodies
C. accept your body as it is D. remember what you used to be like
26. What is the main purpose of the passage?
A. To encourage readers to take more exercise. B. To lead readers to build up body confidence.
C. To remind readers not to eat too much food. D. To advise readers to treat their friends well.
【答案】24. D 25. C 26. B
【解析】

C
Have you ever wondered if you see the same colours as other people? Most people know what blue is when they see it. It’s the colour of the sea and the sky. They see the colour and call it “blue” because they were taught the word and connected it with what they saw. But how do you know what you see as “blue” isn’t someone else’s “red”?
The ability to notice different colours is due to receptors (感受器) in our eyes which is also called cones (晶体). Light waves hit these receptors and they react depending on which colour the light is, sending signals to the brain. The brain then translates these signals to tell which colour light the eyes are receiving.
Some people’s receptors are more developed than others. People with weaker receptors usually have colour blindness. Those with more developed receptors can see more shades of one colour, which is the first way in which people may see colours differently from each other. We sometimes hear people having an argument (争论) about whether something is dark blue or black. It might be because one person has stronger receptors to translate the light than another.
In the past, most scientists would think that everyone saw colours in the same way. However, later scientists carried out a research on monkeys, in which they were injected (注射) with a virus affecting their receptors. They found that monkeys could see one more color—red, compared (比较) with the usual two colors—blue and green. This is because the neurons (神经元) in their brains automatically (自动地) adapted (适应) to be able to understand a new colour. This also might mean the neurons in human brains are not hardwired (与生俱来的) to understand which colour is which. Our brains and neurons may adapt to tell colors depending on stimulus (刺激物) .
Colour could be a very personal experience, unique (独一无二的) to everyone. So next time when you and your friend talk about your favourite colour, if yours is blue and your friend says red, you might actually be thinking about the same colour.
27. How does the author introduce his topic in Paragraph 1?
A By doing a survey. B. By listing some numbers.
C. By giving an example. D. By using famous people’s words.
28. What’s the correct process (过程) of seeing colors?
A. cones send signals to the brain→the brain translates the signals→light waves hit cones→cones react to the light.
B. light waves hit cones→cones react to the light→cones send signals to the brain→the brain translates the signals.
C. light waves hit cones→cones send signals to the brain→the brain translates the signals→cones react to the light.
D. cones react to the light→cones send signals to the brain→light waves hit cones→cones react to the light.
29. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A. People with weaker receptors are more likely to have colour blindness.
B. Our eyes are born to automatically tell colors.
C. Monkeys can usually see three colors.
D. Now most scientists still believe that everyone sees colors in the same way.
30. Which graph (图表) shows how the author organizes his ideas?
A. B. C. D.
【答案】27. C 28. B 29. A 30. D
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讨论了人们看到的颜色是否相同,解释了眼睛中的感受器如何工作,以及为什么有些人可能看到的颜色不同。

【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“People with weaker receptors usually have colour blindness.”可知,受体较弱的人通常患有色盲,选项A表述正确。故选A。

(One day, Gulliver was caught in a storm and his ship hit a rock, then damaged. He was washed to the beach by sea wave. He walked and walked to find a city, but he was too tired and felt asleep. When he woke up, he found himself in Lilliput and a lot of tiny people were around him. )
The Emperor spoke in a high voice but I could hear all the words clearly. His followers and all the ladies wore rich and beautiful clothes. The ground where they were standing looked like gold and silver cloth.
His Majesty and I often spoke to each other but neither of us understood a single word. I tried words from many languages-Dutch, French, Spanish, Italian and Latin. No one could understand my words, not even the cleverest of the Emperor’s followers.
After about two hours, the Emperor left. His wife, children and their servants also went. There were strong guards around me. This was to stop the crowd of people from hurting me.
An officer told the guards to hold six men who made me angry. These men were given to me and I had to choose their punishment. I put five of them in my pocket. Then I pretended (假装) to eat the sixth man.
The poor man screamed terribly. The guards were worried when they saw my knife in my hand. Was I going to cut up the man? But I only cut the binding (捆绑物) round his hands. Then I put him on his feet and let him go. I lifted the other five men out of my pocket and put them gently on the ground too.
The people and the soldiers were very pleased with my great kindness. They told the Emperor about it immediately. The Emperor ordered his men to make a bed for me and they had to join six hundred of their little beds together to make one bed for me.
At the same time, the Emperor asked all his advisers for their advice on how to deal with me. They were very worried. If my binding was cut, I might be dangerous. I was eating so much food that soon all the people would be very hungry. The farmers could not grow enough food to feed all of us.
The wise men thought that they should kill me. But they would not be able to bury (埋葬) me. My dead body would smell. This might cause much illness all over the country.
31. To the tiny people, Gulliver was a/an ________ at first?
A. friend B. relative C. enemy D. tourist
32. The underlined word “them” in Paragraph 4 most probably refers to (指) “________”.
A. the guards B. the six men C. the officers D. the soldiers
33. Why were the tiny people pleased with Gulliver?

②They couldn’t understand each other.
③The emperor spoke.
④Gulliver didn’t punish the six tiny people and let them go.
A. ③②①④ B. ②①③④ C. ①④③② D. ③②④①
35. Why didn’t the tiny people in Lilliput kill Gulliver finally?

C. The king and his family liked him so much that they didn’t agree.
D. He was so strong that he would work for them.

Chinese people like the red colour a lot. Even now Chinese people like to refer to ourselves as Chizi, meaning the red descendant.
Red represents the motherland and authority. Official uniforms of the Tang Dynasty were red. In the Qin Dynasty, red was used on official caps to show different rankings. As we know, the Five-starred Red Flag was first raised on October 1st, 1949. Even nowadays, headlines of official documents are painted in red. This is why they are called red-head documents.
For ordinary people, red stands for happiness. For example, the word “double happiness” used for weddings is red. The bride wears red clothes which are different from the white gowns of the west. During the Chinese Spring Festival, people will give red packets to the children to make them happy. Couplets hanging on both sides of the doors are written in red. The word red equals prettiness. The expression “hongyan” meaning red colour is a synonym of a beautiful girl. Red is also one of the most popular words used in the names of Chinese women. But in traffic lights red means stop driving. This is how the westerners like to use the red colour. It is because red is very bright, and is good for warning purposes. But it doesn’t really have any negative meanings.

Miss Lee is beautiful with long hair. And she is kind. She helps me a lot. She often helps me with my English. When I’m in trouble, she always encourages me to face my difficulties and gives me good advice. I still remember that once I failed in an important English exam and was upset. She cheered me up and told me some good ways to improve my English. With her help, I made great progress in English and became interested in it. I’m very thankful for all that she has done for me. She has a great influence on me, and her help is very useful for my future development.
In the future, I want to be an English teacher like her.
