Ⅰ.阅读理解(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和D)中，选出最佳选项。

There's a great article in TheNe w YorkTimes this week about the tradition of buying a coffee for a stranger at the same time that you buy your own. They call it caffè_sospeso,_the name for the “suspended (暂留的) coffee”in its birthplace. In some cafes, folks in need may claim a suspended coffee and drink it without cost.

No doubt the free coffee will be welcomed by people who love coffee but for one reason or another don't have the money to buy one. But I also like the opportunity it offers customers to become philanthropists (慈善家). Every time they order a coffee, they can give one to somebody in need.

This is a tradition that began some 100 years ago in Naples, Italy. In Naples, as reported by TheNe w YorkTimes, people love this kind of giving：

“To me, the philosophy of the suspended coffee is that you are happy today, and you give a coffee to the world, as a present.”—Luigi Solito

“It's a simple act of generosity: an act in which donors and recipients (接受者) never meet each other. The donor doesn't show off and the recipient doesn't have to show gratitude.”— Laura Cozzolino “Coffee consumption started earlier than the unification (统一) of Italy by more than 200 years, so the traditions around it are very ancient. In Naples, coffee is a world in itself, both culturally and socially.”—Andrea Illy

The practice of buying suspended coffees has grown in popularity —with websites popping up and hundreds of cafes from Canada to Brazil to Hungary to the US offering the service.

1．Who are suspended coffees intended for?

A．Cafe goers.

B．People who can't afford a coffee.

C．Philanthropists.

D．Coffee lovers who live in Naples.

2．How can someone get a suspended coffee?

A．He can ask for one in any cafe.

B．He can apply for one on websites.

C．He can buy one in a cafe offering the service.

D．He can drink one in a cafe that has prepaid coffees.

3．The underlined words in Paragraph 1 are words of ________．

A．French B．Old English

C．Italian D．American English

Stephen Hawking knew what he wanted to do by the time he was eight years old. His parents lived in London where his father was undertaking research into medicine. He did not want to follow his father as his parents hoped. Mathematics was not available at University College, so he did physics instead. Stephen was interested in studying the universe.

But when he was 21, he was told that he had ALS —an incurable nerve disease, which affects walking, speaking, breathing, swallowing, etc. The doctors predicted that he had only a few years to live. “The doctors' grim (残忍的) prognosis (预测) made me determined to get the most from a life I had previously taken for granted and life was no longer boring for me，”Hawking says today, speaking from his wheelchair through a computerized voice synthesizer.

He didn't die. Instead, as his physical condition worsened, Hawking's reputation in scientific circles grew. Hawking himself acknowledges his disease as being a crucial factor in focusing his attention on what turned out to be his real strength: theoretical research.

In 1988, Stephen Hawking published a book called ABriefHistoryofTime: FromtheBigBangtoBlackHoles. The book tries to explain many of Hawking's physical and mathematical ideas and calculations without using maths. The book became a best seller and his later books, BlackHolesandBabyUni v ersesandOtherEssays and most recently in 2001, TheUni v erseinaNutshell. Of the three, the first one was made into a film in 1991.

Hawking says, “You have to be positive if you're to get much sympathy or help. Nowadays, muscle power is obsolete. What we need is mind power —and disabled people are as good at that as anyone else.”

4．What career did Hawking's parents wish him to take

up?

A．Studying physics.

B．Studying the universe.

C．Studying medicine.

D．Studying mathematics.

5．Which book of Stephen Hawking's was made into a movie?

A．TheUni v erseinaNutshell.

B．BlackHolesandBabyUni v ersesandOtherEssays.

C．TheGrandDesign.

D．ABriefHistoryofTime.

6．From the second paragraph, we can learn before his condition was diagnosed, Hawking ________．A．held an active attitude towards life

B．was very bored with life

C．had always been valuing time

D．was interested in everything around

7．According to Hawking, his disease ________．

A．stopped him making greater achievements

B．stopped him outweighing other famous scientists

C．caused him to focus all his attention on the research

D．caused him to lose the hope of life

It was September 5, 2009. Lexi Youngberg, then 16, was on vacation in Spring Lake, Michigan. She was

riding on a small boat with her friends, Robby and Kaitlin, when a motorboat crashed into them. The sound was so loud that other boaters heard it over the roar (轰鸣声) of their engines. The teen boy who had been driving the motorboat stepped on the gas by mistake. Kaitlin, 23, had only small cuts, but Robby, 15, had been badly cut by the propeller (螺旋桨). And Lexi was floating facedown in the water. When one boater swam to Lexi, she was breathing. However, she was unconscious. She had a deep cut on her head. And the lower part of her left leg, just below the knee, was gone. A doctor rode up in another boat and tried to save Robby, but it was too late.

For Lexi, the good news is that she survived while the bad news is that she lost one of her legs forever. When Lexi looked at her swollen leg, she felt hopeless. But as time passed, Lexi began to feel stronger. She was grateful that her life had been spared, and she decided to make the most of it. At the end of November 2009, Lexi met with Dr. John Hardy, who was an expert at making artificial legs. She hoped he would help her get back to doing the things she loved.

Three years after the accident, Lexi moved on with her life. In spring 2011, she joined a soccer team in her school. That fall, she started college. Lexi is thankful that she can still do the things she loves. One day, she wants to be a physical therapist (理疗师) and work with those with disabilities. But first she plans to compete in the Paralympics. Whatever Lexi decides to do, one thing is certain: Nothing is going to get in her way.

Archery (箭术) is one of the oldest sports that are still being practiced today. The bow and arrow dates as far back as the Old Stone Age, and is the most widely used weapon (武器) in human history.

While there is recorded evidence of archery competitions taking place in China more than 3，000 years ago,

the modern sport of archery most likely originated in England during the 14th century. Then the sport began to develop fast and there were a few different styles of shooting, some of which developed into what we see today in the sport of archery.

There was clout shooting, in which arrows were held high into the air with the purpose of hitting a target which was laid flat, not vertical. The aim was to land the arrow as close to the target as possible. This variety of shooting is still practiced today, often with traditional bows.

“Roving marks”，another style, saw players shooting at a target, only to shoot at a new target from the location of the previous target. It is said that this is the oldest form of competitive archery, and was practiced by Henry Ⅷ. Finally, there was butt (靶垛) shooting, in which butts held targets, which the players would shoot at. This is the ancestor of modern-day Olympic target shooting.

Archery was a part of the second Olympic Games, which was held in 1900. It was dropped after 1920, however, because rules varied too much between nations. Archery was brought back into the Olympics in 1972. This was after enough nations had formed archery governing bodies affiliated (隶属) with the Fédération Internationale de Tir l'Arc, which was founded in Paris in 1931, to standardize rules for international competitions.

From its early history to modern times, archery has always been a competitive sport. Surely, many years from now archery will continue to be a popular sport reaching across age gaps and national borders, uniting archery lovers from all over the world.

12．According to the text, archery ________．

A．was already very common in the Old Stone Age

B．could be seen around Europe in the 14th century

C．was recorded as a sport in China over 3，000 years ago

D．disappeared from the Olympics after 1920 because of war

13．The underlined word “originated”in Paragraph 2 can best be replaced by “________”．

A．started B．settled

C．changed D．continued

14．What can we learn about clout shooting?

A．It can not be seen nowadays any more.

B．It is the oldest form of competitive archery.

C．Arrows have to land on the centre of a target.

D．Players should shoot at a target that lies down.

15．What would be the best title for the text?

A．A brief history of competitive archery

B．Archery at the Olympic Games

C．Different styles of archery

D．How to do archery

Ⅰ.阅读理解(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和D)中，选出最佳选项。

Researchers at The University of Kansas say that people can accurately judge 90 percent of a stranger's personality simply by looking at the person's shoes.

“Shoes convey a thin but useful piece of information about their wearer，”the authors wrote in the new study published in the JournalofResearchinPersonality.“Shoes serve a practical purpose, and also serve as nonverbal cues (非语言暗示) with symbolic messages. People tend to pay attention to the shoes they and others wear.”

MedicalDaily notes that the detailed personality information detected in the study includes a person's general age, gender, income, political ideas, and other personality, including someone's emotional stability.

Lead researcher Omri Gillath said the judgments were based on the style, cost, color and condition of someone's shoes. In the study, 63 students from The University of Kansas looked at pictures showing 208 different pairs of shoes worn by the study's participants. V olunteers in the study were photographed in their most commonly worn shoes, and then filled out a personality questionnaire.

Some of the results were expected: people with higher income most commonly wore expensive shoes, and flashier footwear was typically worn by outgoing people.

However, some results are funny and interesting. For example，“practical and functional” shoes were generally worn by more “agreeable” people, while ankle boots were more closely aligned_with the “aggressive”personality. The strangest of all may be that those who wore “uncomfortable looking”shoes tend to have the “calm” personality.

The researchers noted that some people would choose shoe styles to mask their actual personality information, but researchers noted that volunteers were also likely to be unaware that their footwear choices were revealing deep insights into their personality.

1．According to Paragraph 2, which of the following statements is true?

A．The shoes people wear may reflect the information of the wearer.

B．People would always look at strangers' shoes with a practical purpose.

C．Shoes are so funny and interesting that they attract people's much attention.

D．People pay attention to shoes in order to know the information of the shoes.

2．According to the text, the researchers did the study by ________．

A．doing casual interviews

B．carrying out lab experiments

C．analyzing the data from the participants

D．observing the participants

3．The underlined part “aligned with”probably means “________”．

A little girl lines up plastic letters in front of a little robot. The robot struggles to reproduce them on a tablet. The girl kindly steps in to help, writing out the word to show the robot how to do it. She puts in effort to teach the robot, without realizing that she is actually the one who is improving her writing skills. Yesterday, EPFL

researchers introduced their new teaching tool at the Conference on Human-Robot Interaction (HRI) held in Portland, the USA.

The program is based on a principle called “Learning by Teaching”. When children experience difficulties in writing, they can easily lose confidence, or even gradually lose interest in the learning process. Eventually, their entire education can be affected. When students put themselves in the place of a teacher and pass on what they know to their peers, they can regain their self-confidence and interest in their studies.

Scientists developed progressive writing algorithms (算法) and used them in an existing robot model which was designed to interact with humans. With these algorithms, the machine can slowly draw words on demand, and then gradually improve. To do this, it uses many handwriting examples, which allow it to reproduce common errors made by young children while learning. It is also possible to program the robot so that it can pay attention to the particular difficulties of a student.

The system has already been used in primary school lessons with about seventy students ranging from six to eight years old, and then individually with a six-year-old child for one hour per week over the course of one month. So far the system has been very well received.

4．The little girl is mentioned to ________．

A．advertise an old robot

B．introduce a smart girl to us

C．lead to the topic of the text

D．explain how girls study today

5．What kind of role does the robot play?

A．A teacher who is good at teaching.

B．A student who needs to be taught.

C．A student who is good at his studies.

D．A teacher who knows students' mistakes.

6．What is mainly talked about in Paragraph 3?

A．How the robot works.

B．The popularity of the robot.

C．Why the robot was designed.

D．The appearance of the robot.

7．Those who have tried the system most probably consider it ________．

A．difficult B．stupid

C．childish D．helpful

My kids tell me it's unfair to play with the big children; I tell them that's right. The playing field is never even or equal. Your skills and attitude play a major role in the outcome.

Unfairness is a good thing. There is more to be gained by the effort when things seem unfair. It is true that many things in the world are unfair, but unfair things usually benefit you. For example, the early bird catches the worm. It is unfair that the bird that sleeps in misses out on breakfast, but it is nice to know that if he gets up early he is sure to get the worm.

I always try to explain to my kids that complaining about how unfair the thing is will get them nowhere.

Instead, make use of it and get on the other side of it. Once you do that you are in the advantage. Above all, you have to focus on gaining the unfair advantage and you have to build your inner strength. When you empower (使强大) yourself, you are gaining skills or abilities, confidence and self-confidence. You should look at your place in the world. Where do you want to be financially, spiritually, emotionally, and physically? You are creating your own story when you empower yourself.

You can build all the advantages that you need to live the life that you want. If you haven't yet, you need to make a list of all the things you want to experience in your new life. This will help you focus on building the advantage so that you never have to say that it's not fair. When you do this, then you will be able to realize that unfairness is a good thing.

8．Why is unfairness a good thing?

A．It will benefit us.

B．It leads us to success.

C．It's common in the playing field.

D．It gives us a realistic view of the world.

9．How does the author explain the benefits of unfair things?

A．By listing facts.

B．By telling a story.

C．By making comparisons.

D．By giving an example.

10．According to the author, what should we do in face of unfair things?

A．Avoid them if possible.

B．Take advantage of them.

C．Change them to fair things.

D．Analyze the reason behind them.

11．The text is written to ________．

A．advise us to be positive before unfair things

B．ask us to stop complaining about unfair things

C．encourage us to try our best in the playing field

D．show the author's attitude to competitive sports

We've been covering standing desks for a long time now because experts agree that sitting all day is killing us. We want to be productive while also keeping our bodies healthy. Over the years, there have been several solutions to this from fixed standing desks to adjustable ones, portable desks to ones that change into shelves.

However, the most high tech and elegant solution has to be this new smart desk called The Stir Kinetic Desk. The desk learns your daily behaviors and moves between a sitting and standing height regularly throughout the day to keep you moving without interrupting your work flow.

You can program specific sitting and standing intervals or let the desk set the schedule. If you tend to sit while returning emails in the morning，but always want to stand during that afternoon conference call，the desk will learn those regular habits and adjust the schedule to fit them. Of course, the desk can always be manually lowered or raised by using the touch screen on the lower left corner of the desk.

When switching positions, the desk gently dips and rises to let you know that a change is coming up. If

you're not ready to switch positions at that time, you can tap the touch screen to stay sitting or standing for a while longer.

The built-in touch screen also keeps track of your daily sitting and standing times and tells you how many calories you've burned. You can even set goals for how long or often you want to stand. The desk also works with fitness devices like the FitBit to track your movements.

All of that smart tech doesn't come cheap though. The M1 desk，which is the everyday model，runs a steep $2，990, while the more executive model with added features, the F1, goes for $4，190.

While expensive, it's worth thinking of how much time we spend at our desks. Much like a good mattress (床垫)，a good desk that works with you is worth the investment. Hopefully in a few years these smart, integrated desks will be more common and less expensive.

12．The Stir Kinetic Desk has been designed to ________．

A．help users with their work

B．keep users moving all the time

C．get users to exercise while working

D．remind users of their working schedule

13．Which is the feature of the touch screen of the desk?

A．It can tell users when to change positions.

B．It can track users' changes of positions.

C．It can keep users in a fixed position.

D．It can detect users' health condition.

14．Which of the following can best describe the desk?

A．Productive but challenging.

B．Convenient but unaffordable.

C．Complex and impractical.

D．Multi-functional and intelligent.

15．What does the author intend to tell us in the last paragraph?

A．To spend money on such a desk is rewarding.

B．We should get such a desk as soon as possible.

C．It won't be long before the desk is widely used.

D．Desks play a very important role in our daily life.

Maybe you're just invented something better than the iPhone or a solar-powered car. You don't want anyone to steal your design. What should you do? Patent it! Patents are the best way to get credit for your work and help others continue advancing in that field. 16.________

A patent gives you the right to an invention. The patent protects its owner, which means the invention can't be copied or sold without his agreement. 17.________ This contributes to the knowledge that helps other inventors improve on their own research. A patent usually lasts about 20 years.

18．________ The person applying must name the invention, explain its use and describe it clearly. The invention must be practical and contain some new characteristics that haven't been seen or used before.

19.________ Many countries don't allow patents on things like new concepts, scientific theories, medical procedures or substances already found in nature.

You may not be able to see patents, but they're connected to nearly everything. There are patents on things you use every day, like plastic, light bulbs, medicine and your computer. 20.________ Take the anti-eating face mask for example. This device locks around your head with a metal cage covering your mouth. You can breathe and speak, but you can't eat!

Although many patented inventions can be failures, there's plenty of room for success. So if you have a cool invention, try to patent it!

A．The first step to get a patent is the application.

B．In exchange, the owner must reveal information about the invention.

C．But not everything “new”can be patented.

D．What's the difference between a patent and a copyright?

E．However, something unusual can't be patented.

F．Here's what you need to know.

G．Of course there are also patents on inventions that are a little strange.

Last week, we paid a visit to the exhibition hall in our city, where we saw a variety of robots. The robots on display were in different sizes and shapes. We saw some new types of robots which we hadn't seen before, such as household robots, nursing robots and educational robots. Some robots could do a great number of things just like human beings, including playing chess, playing table tennis, playing the piano and drawing pictures. In addition, we watched two wonderful performances given by robots.

This visit not only broadened our horizons, but also aroused our interest in science.

You may fi nd it hard to believe that the nickname arose quite by accident. There was a man called “Uncle Sam”. However, not many people have ever heard of such a man. Not even most young Americans.

The man was called Samuel Wilson, and was born in Arlington, Massachusetts, September 13, 1766. At the age of 14, Sam joined the American Revolutionary War, and served in the army under George Washington until the end of the war. He then moved to Troy, New York State and began a meat packing business. He earned a reputation for being honest and hardworking. He was locally respected, thus greeted as Uncle Sam —Sam is short for Samuel.

During a later war in 1812, Wilson gained a position inspecting meat for US Army forces, working with a man who got the government's permission to provide meat for the army. Meat supplied to the army was stamped “EA-US”，showing the company (EA) and country of origin (US). According to one story, when a government official visited the company and asked about the letters, an employee humorousl y told him “US” was short for “Uncle Sam” Wilson. Soon soldiers were saying all Army supplies were from “Uncle Sam”．After the war, a character called Uncle Sam became popular in political cartoons. He is depicted as an elderly man with white hair and a goatee beard (山羊胡). Typically he is dressed in clothing that has the same colors as the flag of the United States — a top hat with red and white stripes and white stars on a blue band, and red and

white striped trousers.

“Uncle Sam”was ready to help others and place the interest of the nation above all — this was in line with the American spirit. This made the Americans consider Uncle Sam as the symbol of the USA. In 1961, Congress made a decision to recognize Uncle Sam as the national symbol.

4．What can we learn about Samuel Wilson?

A．He left the army in 1812.

B．He set up a company called EA.

C．He had a successful meat packing business.

D．He was a hero during the Revolutionary War.

5．The underlined word “depicted” in Paragraph 4 can best be replaced by “________”．

A．considered B．treated

C．interviewed D．described

6．What do we know from the text?

A．Samuel Wilson was once very popular in US politics.

B．Uncle Sam's good qualities show the American spirit.

C．Samuel Wilson like the colors of the flag of the US.

D．“Uncle Sam”has been the official US symbol for nearly a century.

7．What would be the best title for the text?

A．Who is Uncle Sam?

B．What is the American spirit?

C．What is “EA-US”short for?

D．What is the symbol of the USA?

Raising children has traditionally been a mother's role. People think that kids have to be with mothers mostly, but the modern sociology says when a father is not involved in life, it leads to problems. Children abandoned or ignored by their fathers do not succeed as well as children in families where both parents are involved.

At the River House in Maryland, a church community is running a program called the Men's Retreat with the purpose of helping men become better fathers. Here fathers can get parental advice. The program is also open to children who don't have fathers in their lives. For them, the program is an opportunity to interact (互动) with male role models.

Businessman Pavel says though the Men's Retreat may take up some of his time to earn money, it has been a good opportunity to spend quality time with his son. He has realized that for boys, father is the first teacher. And the gathering is also a great chance to think about how to improve the relationship with his wife.

Program organizer Victor Visotski notes that the son is going along his father's path and learns from him. The father's role in a daughter's life is as important as that in his son's life. A father for a daughter is a hero and he is the first man she admires. It is important that the father creates a family atmosphere filled with love, because the daughter observes the behavior of her father closely. Mr.Visotski says a father must take his duties as a parent as seriously as his career. Setting aside quality time to spend with his child is a good start.

8．We can learn from the modern sociology that ________．

A．a father's role in children's life is important

B．a father can teach children more than a mother

人教版新课标高中英语选修7课文原文 Unit 1 Living well-Reading MARTY’S STORY Hi, my name is Marry Fielding and I guess you could say that I am "one in a million". In other words, there are not many people like me. You see, I have a muscle disease which makes me very weak, so I can't run or climb stairs as quickly as other people. In addition, sometimes I am very clumsy and drop things or bump into furniture. Unfortunately, the doctors don't know how to make me better, but I am very outgoing and have learned to adapt to my disability. My motto is: live One day at a time. Until I was ten years old I was the same as everyone else. I used to climb trees, swim and play football. In fact, I used to dream about playing professional football and possibly representing my country in the World Cup. Then I started to get weaker and weaker, until I could only enjoy football from a bench at the stadium. In the end I went into hospital for medical tests. I stayed there for nearly three months. I think I had at least a billion tests, including one in which they cut out a piece of muscle from my leg and looked at it under a microscope. Even after all that, no one could give my disease a name and it is difficult to know what the future holds. One problem is that I don't look any different from other people. So sometimes some children in my primary school would laugh, when I got out of breath after running a short way or had to stop and rest halfway up the stairs. Sometimes, too, I was too weak to go to school so my education suffered. Every time I returned after an absence, I felt stupid because I was behind the others. My life is a lot easier at high school because my fellow students have accepted me. The few who cannot see the real person inside my body do not make me annoyed, and I just ignore them. All in all I have a good life. I am happy to have found many things I can do, like writing and computer programming. My ambition is to work for a firm that develops computer software when I grow up. Last year invented a computer football game and a big company has decided to buy it from me. I have a very busy life with no time to sit around feeling sorry for myself. As well as going to the movies and football matches with my friends, I spend a lot of time with my pets. I have two rabbits, a parrot, a tank full of fish and a tortoise. To look after my pets properly takes a lot of time but I find it worthwhile. I also have to do a lot of work, especially if I have been away for a while. In many ways my disability has helped me grow stronger psychologically and become more independent. I have to work hard to live a normal life but it has been worth it. If I had a chance to say one thing to healthy children, it would be this: having a disability does not mean your life is not satisfying. So don't feel sorry for the disabled or make fun of them, and don't ignore them either. Just accept them for who they are, and give them encouragement to live as
