This is my third story. When I was 17，I read a quote that 36 something like，“If you live each day 37 it was your last，someday you'll most certainly be right.”Since then，for the past thirty-three years，I've looked 38 the mirror every morning and asked myself：“If today were the last day of my life，would I want to do what I am about to do today？”And whenever the answer has been“No”for too many days in a 39 ，I know I need to change something.

About a year ago I was 40 with cancer. The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable，and that I should 41 to live no longer than three to six months. They advised me to go home and get my 42 in order，which is doctors' code for“prepare to 43 ”. Later that evening when the doctors 44 the cells taken from my pancreas(胰腺)under a microscope，they started crying because it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is 45 with surgery. I had the surgery and，46 ，I'm fine now.

This was the closest I've been to facing death，and I hope it's the closest I get for a few more decades. Death is the 47 we all share. No one has 48 escaped it. And that is 49 it should be，because death is very likely the single 50 invention of life. It's life's change agent. It clears out the old to make 51 for the new. Your time is 52 ，so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma(信条)—which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of 53 opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most importantly，have the courage to 54 your heart and intuition(直觉). They 55 already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

第三部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）

第一节（共15小题：每小题2分，满分30分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项。

A

Mrs. Amatuli was my teacher in the fourth grade. One day at lunch time，I was getting ready to eat my same old tuna fish (金枪鱼)sandwich and suddenly Mrs. Amatuli asked me if she could buy my sandwich from me. She explained that I could use the money to buy a hot lunch from the cafeteria.

I was thrilled. I never bought my lunch at the cafeteria. It was too expensive for my family，and I always carried my lunch and brought the bag back home to use again the next day. My sandwiches were either bologna(大香肠)or tuna fish. It rarely varied beyond that.

You can understand my delight when I had the opportunity to buy a hot lunch. When we finished lunch that day，Mrs. Amatuli took me aside and said she wanted to explain why she had bought my sandwiches. I really didn't care why，but it gave me a few minutes of her precious attention so I was very quiet as she explained. You see，she was Catholic and she told me that Catholics didn't eat red meat on Fridays —they ate fish on Fridays.

Oh，I couldn't wait to get home and tell my mama that from now on I wanted tuna fish on Fridays. After my mama understood why，she gladly fixed tuna fish for me on Fridays. She even fixed it on brown bread because she knew Mrs. Amatuli liked brown bread. From then on，every Friday I could get in line with the rest of the kids for a hot lunch. I didn't care how many of the kids complained about cafeteria food—it tasted divine to me！

I realize now that Mrs. Amatuli could have fixed herself a tuna sandwich of Friday. But she bought my sandwiches because she saw a little girl who was thrilled over the simple act of having a hot lunch.

I will never forget her for her compassion and generosity and what I should do is to follow her example.

C. Love makes the world go around.

D. The more you offer，the more you are rewarded.

BEIJING—Alarmed by the overreaching ambitions of many Chinese provinces to grow at all costs，China's top economic chief is calling on officials to calm down and spare a thought for the environment.

Zhang Ping，who heads China's National Development and Reform Commission，the central economic planning agency，said only five or six of China's 30 provinces are

targeting annual economic growth of 8 percent or 9 percent.

The remaining provinces are aiming for growth rates of more than 10 percent this year，with some wanting to double economic output in the coming five years.

“China has a planned energy supply of about 4 billion cubic tons of coal equivalent(等量的)for the next five years，and this is not enough to meet demands for economic growth to double，”he was quoted as saying on the news portal Sina. Com.

Beijing is increasingly concerned with the ambitions of Chinese provinces across the country to chase high growth despite the central government's urgent request for a more moderate and sustainable(可持续的)pace of expansion.

Years of rapid economic growth have taken a toll on China's environment，with Beijing trying to remove some of the damage now. It has an annual growth target of 7 percent for the next five years，well down from last year's 10 percent.

Zhang said Beijing has asked local governments to take into account the supply of “energy，environment，water and land”to set more reasonable growth targets.

60.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to

the passage？

A.The supply of the coal in China is not sufficient for the

next five years.

B. Zhang Ping is an expert and economic chief from www. Sina.

Com.

C. Few Chinese provinces are aiming for economic growth rates

of less than 10%.

D. Many Chinese provinces are alarmed by Beijing.

61.The underlined phrase“taken a toll on”in the sixth

paragraph means“________”．

A. improved

B. done damage to

C. restored

D. attached importance to

62.The general idea of the whole passage can be that

________.

A.China's economy is increasing at a fast speed

B. China's top chief lays more emphasis on the environment

C. economic high growth should go hand in hand with

environmental concern

D. all Chinese provinces should slow down their economic

growth rates

63.What could be the best title for the news？

A.Economic Development

B. Energy Supply

C. Environment

D. Sustainable Development

C

If you and your friends wish to share a secret，you can write it in code，and no one else will be able to read it.Codes are one way of writing in secret. Ciphers (暗码)are another. In a code each word is written as a secret code word or a code number. In a cipher each letter is changed.

Codes and ciphers have played an important role in the history of the world. Julius Caesar，the Roman ruler who defeated almost all the countries in Europe about 2,000 years ago，used a cipher when he sent secret messages to his troops. During the American Revolution，George Washington's spies used a kind of code to send his information about the enemy before his military action. In World War Ⅱ，the Americans“broke”or figured out Japan's most important navy codes and got enough information to destroy a powerful Japanese fleet.

Storekeepers use codes to mark their goods. The codes show how much is paid for the goods or when they are added to the stock. Businessmen use codes to hide plans from their business enemies. Sometimes personal letters or diaries are written in code. Many people enjoy figuring out codes and ciphers simply as a hobby.Storekeepers use codes to mark their goods. The codes show how much is paid for the goods or when they are added to the stock. Businessmen use codes to hide plans from their business enemies. Sometimes personal letters or diaries are written in code. Many people enjoy figuring out codes and ciphers simply as a hobby.

In the 16th century，codes and ciphers were very popular among scientists. They wrote messages to each other in code so that no one else would learn their secrets. Geronimo Gardano，an Italian astrologer (占星家)，mathematician，and doctor，invented the trellis cipher. He took two sheets of paper and cut exactly the same holes in each one. Then he sent one sheet，which he called a trellis，to a friend and kept the other for himself. Whenever he wanted to write a message，he put his trellis over a clean sheet of paper and wrote the secret message through the holes. There he removed the trellis and filled the rest of the paper with words that would make sense. When his friend received it，he put his trellis over the writing and read the secret message.

67.The best title of this passage would be________.

A.Codes and ciphers

B. Differences between codes and ciphers

C. History of codes and ciphers

D. Inventors of codes and ciphers

68.Which of the following statements is TRUE？

A.Ciphers can be broken or figured out more easily than codes.

B. You could read some words in Geronimo's letter without his

trellis.

C. The first person who ever used a cipher in history was

Julius Caesar.

D. Fondness of using codes was the hobby of the scientists

in the 1600s.

69.According to Geronimo Gardano，a trellis is ________.

A.a piece of paper with many small holes

B. a secret message with a lot of small holes

C. a letter with unreadable words and sentences

D. a sheet of paper with groups of Arabic figures

第二节（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分）

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

What makes one person more intelligent than another？What makes one person a genius，like the brilliant Albert Einstein，and another person a fool？Are people born intelligent or stupid，or is intelligence the result of where and how you live？

71

We know，however，that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways，the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. 72 Mental exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. 73 If，on the other hand，children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do，they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.

74 According to some psychologists，if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot，then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive things to their children，such as“That was a very clever thing you did.” or “ 75 ”

A.A healthy body contributes to one's intelligence.

B. Parents should also be careful about what they say to young

children.

哈师大附中

东北师大附中辽宁省实验中学2012届高三第一次联合模拟考试

21. A 解析：考查冠词的用法。句意：王浩和褚亚飞在20公里竞走中分别为中国夺得了一枚金牌和一枚银牌，这是亚运会的第一个比赛项目。第一空处泛指结果，第二空特指20公里竞走这个比赛项目。

22. C 解析：考查非谓语动词。句意：怀特夫人发现她的丈夫被信件和文件包围着，看起来非常担心。surrounded by letters and papers和looking very worried都是分词短语作补语，前者表示被动，后者表示主动。

23. B 解析：考查代词的用法。说话人说洗了所有衣服，结果发现口袋中有一张20美元的钞票，答话人认为这就是生活。此处是承接说话人所讲的内容，故用that。

24. A 解析：考查情态动词。shall用于主语是第二人称和第三人称的陈述句中表示允诺和警告。此处表示警告：作为一名学生，你“必须”依靠你自己。

25. D 解析：考查形容词辨析。句意：用静止的形象作画会导致感觉的丧失，而感觉对一

个艺术家来说至关重要。vital意为“对……极其重要”。前三项分别意为“绝对的”“紧急的”“特殊的”，都不符合句意。

26. C 解析：考查副词的用法。句意：没有人会想到房价会下降，但即便是这样，所发生的事情确实如此。anyway意为“尽管，即使这样”。

27. C 解析：考查时态。句意：北京的交通状况几十年来一直在恶化。起初，人们只是抱怨交通高峰期的堵塞，但是如今每个小时都是高峰期。现在完成进行时表示这种状态从过去一直持续到现在，而且还可能继续下去。

28. A 解析：考查动词辨析。“我”不想独自一人全程驾车到纽约，因此“说服”了十年来最好的朋友与“我”同行。此处convince sb. to do sth. 表示“说服某人做某事”。29. D 解析：考查状语从句。句意：这位新老师条理非常清楚，她从我们昨天停止的地方开始，没有遗漏任何要点。where we stopped yesterday是状语从句。

30. C 解析：考查强调句型和主语从句。句意：是汤姆经常违反学校校规才让他的老师对他不满意的。本句是强调句型，被强调部分是主语从句that Tom often breaks the school rules。

31. D 解析：考查动词词组。句意：《暮光之城》这本书一推出，就立即受到读者的热烈欢迎。此处bring out意为“生产；出版”。前三项分别意为“养育”“降低”“带来”，都不符合句意。

32. B 解析：考查省略句的用法。答话人想成为联想集团的工程师，答语是“No，but I want to be an engineer in Lenovo Group.”的省略形式。当不定式后有be时，be不可省略。

33. D 解析：考查虚拟语气和倒装。句意：如果明天下雨，我们将不得不取消足球比赛。前半句是对将来情况的虚拟，正常语序是“If it should rain tomorrow”。省略if后，要将should提到主语之前，引起倒装。

34. A 解析：考查介词短语辨析。句意：一个天气预报员说大雪过后，英国也许要经历有记录以来最寒冷的十二月。on record意为“记录在案；公开发表。”后三项分别意为“在世界上；究竟”“总计”“首先”，都与句意不符。

35. B 解析：考查交际用语。根据下一句中的内容可知答话人“事实上不喜欢”姜文的《让子弹飞》，看这部电影只是为了开心娱乐。not really“事实上不”，符合句意。

[文章大意] 岁月匆匆，人生短暂，人要为自己活着，而不是生活在别人的阴影下。九死一生的坎坷经历让作者刻骨铭心。

36. C 解析：作者在十七岁时读到一句引言，大概意思如下。此处的go表示“(故事、歌词等)内容是”。

37. B 解析：如果你将每一天都当作你生命中的最后一天来度过的话……as if表示“好像；仿佛”。

38. A 解析：三十三年来，作者每天早上都审视镜子“中”的自己，并不断地向自己发问。作者的焦点不是镜子，而是镜子中的自己，故B项不恰当。

39. A 解析：每当一连多天答案都是否定时，作者知道自己需要做出改变了。in a row意为“连续”。in a sense意为“从某种意义上说”，不符合语境。

40. D 解析：大约一年前，作者被“诊断”出患有癌症，diagnose“诊断(疾病)”。

41. C 解析：上文提到医生告诉作者这几乎肯定是一种不治之症，所以作者对自己生命期限的“期望”应该是不多于三至六个月。

42. C 解析：医生们建议作者回家把自己的“事情”料理好。B项意为“商店，公司”，在文章中没有信息支持。

43. D 解析：医生建议让作者回家就是准备“死亡”。

44. B 解析：那天晚上稍晚的时候，当他们在显微镜下“观察”从作者的胰腺中取出的细胞时，他们大叫了起来。view“观看(尤指)仔细察看”。

45. A 解析：他们得出的结果是这是一种罕见的胰腺癌，通过外科手术“可以治愈”。

46. B 解析：医生本来判定作者必死无疑，结果发现他患的是可能治疗的癌症，作者经过手术后痊愈了，故非常“感激”。

47. B 解析：死亡是我们共有的“终点”，任何人无法避免。

48. A 解析：每个人最终都要死亡，没有一个人“曾经”逃脱过。

49. C 解析：死亡是芸芸众生的最终归宿，这正是万物应该有的结局，此处as意为“正如”。

50. D 解析：下文提到死亡是生命变革的促进者，属于正常的新老更替，由此可推知死亡很可能是生命中“最好的”证明。

51. D 解析：死亡清除了陈旧的东西，为新生事物让路。make way for 可意为“为……让路”。

52. D 解析：本句后半句提到不要把时间浪费在过别人的生活上面，由此可知你的时间是“有限的”。

53. A 解析：不要让“别人的”观点淹没你的心声。

54. B 解析：最重要的是，要有勇气“跟随”你的内心和直觉。

55. C 解析：要相信自己的内心和直觉，它们“不知怎么地”已经知道了你真正想成为什么样的人。其他的一切都是次要的。D项表示“有点儿，有几分”，不符合语境。

[文章大意] 年幼的作者为能在学校买一份热午餐而欣喜不已，事后才意识到是老师在不动声色地关心自己，感激之情油然而生，决心向她学习。

56. D 解析：推理判断题。文章倒数第二段提到作者后来意识到她买作者的三明治的原因是她看到作者竟然因为吃一份热午餐这样普通的事情而非常激动，由此可知她是想关心作者。

57. C 解析：推理判断题。倒数第三段最后提到作者不在乎很多孩子对自助餐厅食物的抱怨，由此可推知作者喜欢吃自助餐厅的食物。

58. A 解析：猜测词义题。破折号前面提到作者不在乎其他孩子对食物的抱怨，破折号后面是感叹句，下一段的后半部分又提到作者因为吃到一份热午餐而非常激动，由此可推知作者觉得这些食物是非常好吃的。

59. C 解析：主旨大意题。文章倒数第二段提示了Mrs.Amatuli买作者的三明治的真正原因，最后一段则提到作者将效仿她的热情和慷慨，所以本文的主题应是“爱能感动世界”。[文章大意] 我国绝大多数省份制订的年度经济增长指标让有关部门和人士忧心忡忡，环境、能源等问题日益突出，不可等闲视之，可持续性发展是解决之道。

60. C 解析：正误判断题。第二段的后半部分提到在中国的三十个省份中，只有五六个省份把年经济增长率目标定为8%和9%，由此可知比重很小，第三段的前半部分提到剩余的省份都把今年经济增长率目标定在10%以上，由此可知C项内容正确。煤炭供应不能满足随后五年需要的假设是经济增长翻倍，故A项不恰当。

61. B 解析：猜测词义题。画线部分后面提到北京现在正在努力消除一些危害，由此可推断画线部分短语表示“带来破坏”。

62. C 解析：主旨大意题。本文是一篇新闻报道，第一段是文章的中心段，过度渴望发展的同时，应该冷静下来考虑环境问题，由此可知经济的快速增长应该与环境保护同步进行。

63. D 解析：标题概括题。既要保持经济增长，又要考虑环境、能源、水、土地等问题，以确定合理的增长目标，因此必须采用可持续性发展战略。此外，倒数第三段的后半部分也是线索提示。

[文章大意] 科技发展日新月异，新兴产品层出不穷，一款集多功能于一体的时兴iPad将带给你异样的惊喜。

64. C 解析：正误判断题。由“Multitasking”中的内容可推知iPad能让你管理多个程序。

65. B 解析：细节理解题。由文章最后一段的最后一句的内容可知你可以在苹果零售店、分销商、苹果网店或者购物中心以499美元买到，但是在分销商那儿需要多会0.05%的生产锐。C项中shopping mall(购物中心)＝shopping centre。

66. D 解析：推理判断题。由“Find My iPad”第一段中的内容可推知通过它的一个特点就可以找回丢失的iPad。

[文章大意] 密码和暗码有效地保护着秘密，无论是在战火纷飞的前线，还是在没有硝烟的商场，它们都功不可没。有人甚至把它当作个人爱好，其乐无穷。

67. A 解析：主旨大意题。文章第一段点明了本文的中心话题，密码和暗码是有效保护秘密的两种方式，故选A。

68. B 解析：正误判断题。最后一段倒数第二句提到Geronimo拿掉框架，然后在纸张的空白部分填满意义深刻的内容，由此可推知没有框架也可以读他的信件。

69. A 解析：推理判断题。最后一段的第四五两句提到他将两张纸剪成同样的框架，然后把其中一张寄给他朋友，这样对方就可以利用这张框架来套读信件的内容，故选A。

70. C 解析：细节理解题。第二段提到密码和暗码的军事作用，第三段提到了其在保护商业秘密和作为个人爱好的作用，文章中没有提到其在科学成就方面的作用。
