A

In eighteen seventy-seven, the American government decided to move the Nez Perce Indians from their land. The government had set up a reservation for them in Idaho. Chief Joseph did not want to leave the land.It was holy ground. It contained the bones of his father and mother.

But,like his f'ather in earlier times, Chief Joseph knew it would be hopeless to stay and defend the land. There were too few Indians to win a war against the white men.

And so in June of eighteen seventy-seven, the Nez Perce left their home in the Wallowa V alley. They left quickly. They were able to take only a small part of what they owned. and just a few cattle and Appaloosa horses.

When the Indians reached the Snake River, the water was very deep and ran very fast with melted snow from the mountains. Chief Joseph and his people made boats from sticks and dried animal skins to cross the river. While the Indians were busy, a group of white men came and stole some of the cattle waiting at the edge of the river.

The other chiefs demanded that Joseph call a meeting. Two of the chiefs. White Bird and Toohoolhoolzote. spoke for War. but Joseph held different opinion.

Some of the young men in White Bird's group were very angry. That night, they rode into the countryside and killed eleven white persons.

During all his years as chief, Joseph had tried to keep the peace. Now he saw there was no hope. Although he and his young men had taken no part in the killings, he knew that the white men would blame all of the Indians. Chief Joseph said, "I would have given my own life if I could have undone the killing of the white men."

Many Nez Perce fled. Chief Joseph remained, because his wife was about to have a baby. After she gave birth. he and his family joined the others in White Bird Canyon to the south.

Joseph wanted to Lead the people to safety in the flat lands of Montana. But the UnitedStates army quickly sent horse soldiers to follow them.

They were extremely tired when they reached White Bird Canyon. An Indian-carrying a white flag-walked forward to meet them. A soldier shot him.

With that shot. war between the Nez Perce and the United States began.

I'm Rich Kleinfeldt with some financial ex pressions used in business and the stock market.

Our first expression is "in the red." It is another way of saying that a business is losing money. In the past ,numbers in the financial records of a company were written in red ink to show a loss.

A business magazine recently published a report about a television company. The report said the company was still in the red. but was able to cut its loss from the year before.

A profit by a business is written in black numbers. So a company that is "in the black" is making money.

Another financial expression is "run on the bank." That is what happens when many people try to withdraw all their money from a bank. A "run on the bank" usually happens when people believe there is danger a bank may fail or close.

Newspaper reports about a banking crisis in Russia used that expression. They said the government acted because of fears that the crisis would cause a run on the banks.

"Day trading" is a system that lets investors trade directly on an electronic market system. It was the first completely computerized stock market. It sells stocks of companies not listed on any stock exchange. Many high technology companies are listed on it.

Day trading companies provide a desk and a computer system to an investor who wants to trade. Individuals must provide fifty thousand dollars or more to the trading company to pay for the stocks they buy. Thousan ds of other investors do day trading from computers in their homes. A day trader watches stock prices carefully. When he sees a stock rise in price, he uses the computer to buy shares of the stock. If the stock continues to rise in price in the next few minutes, the day trader sells the shares quickly to make a small profit. Then he looks for another stock to buy. If a stotk g oes down instead of up, he sells it and accepts the loss.

The idea is to make a small profit many rimes during the day. Day traders may buy and sell stocks hundreds of times each day

高三英语试题第8页（共12页）

It was the first time the public had gotten to see and hear from George Zimmerman. The judge said he had found probable cause to move ahead with the case and told Zimmerman he would be formally charged on May 29th.

Zimmerman turned himself into authorities on Wednesday night, just before special prosecutor(检举人)Angela Corey announced the charge against him.

Corey told reporters she would fight for Trayvon Martin.

"It’s the victims and justice that we work tirelessly for " Corey said.

Zimmerman says he shot Martin in self-defense after spotting the teenager in a gated community where Martin's father lives. He told police Martin attacked him during a conflict. The shooting caused a national cry led by Martin's parents who insisted their son was murdered. They also accused Zimmerman of targeting their son because he was black.

"We just wanted an arrest and we got it. " Trayvon Mart in’s mother Fulton said.

Many in Sanford, Flori da ---the city wh ere th e sh ooting took place---wel com ed th e charge.

"AII of us were wanting this to move on and get to this process where it is now into the Justice system." one man said.

"It was long overdue(迟到的) and I am glad they decided to do something." another said Police did not initially charge Zimmerman with a crime because of a Florida law that says a person has a right to stand his or her ground and meet force with force. Prosecutor Corey say:“I'm prepared to argue the issue if Zimmerman uses the self-defense law in count".

Mark O'Mara, Zimmerman’s lawyer, would not make his plan public, but he said his client(委托人) was worried about the trial

“If found guilry of the secon d-degree murder charge, Zimmerman could face up to life in prison.", O'Mara said.

66. Why did the case draw so much attention around U.S.A?

Have you ever intended to be fully absorbed in your work but found yourself distracted(走神）by e-mail, the Internet and other things throughout the day? According to the survey made bya famous university in the USA,most people have the experience."People often lose their concentration when they are bored, of course, but also when they are engaged in challenging tasks," says Peter Bergman, the head of the survey. " They sometimes have a feeling to escape from what's difficult or boring, so they jump out," he says. The part of the brain devoted to attention is connected to the brain’s emotional center. Any strong emotion---quarrels with colleagues, problems at home ---can interrupt our attention. Studies over the last decade have shown that too much work to do at a time can easily lead to distraction.

Refocusing is hard for many people. Robert Epstein suggests the following, "Stop and listen to some soft music for a few minutes. Find a good friend or a teacher and say out your matter on your mind. Go for a short walk or take a deep breath, where you breathe in deeply, count to five slowly, hold it and breathe out very slowly." This can "blow out all the tension and the unwanted in your mind to restore your focus."

Take more control by structuring your time and becoming more aware of your behaviors." Setting the phone alarm to go off every hour is my way of creating awareness," Mr. Bregman says. "Y ou have to inform yourself that you've lost focus in order to do something about it."Starting the day with a to-do list is also important, such as when to eat, when to go to the gym or take a walk. But if it's overly ambitious, you will put yourself in a state of anxiety, which makes it hard for the brain to concentrate. "Choosing three or four things as your priority(优先) for the day allows your brain to settle down and focus," he says.

71.According to the passage, which is NOT the reason why some people can be distracted from their work?

A. They don't want to be devoted to their work.

B. They are disturbed by the Internet and other things.

C. They can't find interest in their work.

D They feel their work is too hard for them.

A. Y ou were scolded by your teacher.

B. Y ou had words with your good friend.

C. Y ou went to school at six as usual.

D. Y our mother and father had a quarrel.

73. According to Robert Epstein, how can we refocus on what we should do?

A. Listen to rock music for some time.

B. Turn to your good friends or teachers for help.

C. Run around the playground for some time.

D. Take a breath from time to time.

74. What's the meaning of the underlined word "restore" in the passage?

A. recover

B. reform

C. release

D. react

75. Why does the writer set the phone alarm to go off every hour?

A. To blow out all the tension.

B. To become more aware of his behaviors.

C. To make a to-do list.

D. To remind him when to eat, when to go to the gym or take a walk.

After that, they sort it by category and put the cans and boxes into bags to be delivered to low-income senior citizens in the community.

"I wanted to teach my daughter about philanthropy(慈善）．” says Julie Rosenthal. Who started the non-profit program six years ago. "And I wanted to teach other kids in the community,too. '

W: Do you like living there?

M: To be honest, there are a lot of things that I hate about living there. It's horrible sometimes.

There are always so many tourists everywhere.

高三英语上学期第二次阶段考试试题

The couple had decided that instead of hosting their friends and family for a traditional feast reception, they would feed the victims from an earthquake-stricken area. The idea came from the bridegroom's father, Ted, who volunteers for a Turkish relief organization. For the past few years, the organization has distributed daily meals to thousands of people who've suffered from natural disasters. He approached a representative of the organization and suggested that the family cover part of the costs of feeding them for the day. Then he told his son, who was surprised by the suggestion, but soon won over. When he told that to the bride, she was really shocked but finally accepted because in southeastern Turkey there is a real culture of sharing with people in need. They love to share their food, their table and everything they have. And afterwards she was quite amazed about it. So, they arrived at the distribution center on Thursday to spend the day serving food and taking photographs with their grateful recipients（接受者）． On Tuesday evening, the newly married couple were still pleased with their decision to quit a personal celebration for one with a greater good. "It's like sharing a dinner with your friends and family who have this kind of thing on a daily basis or sharing something with people who don't even have the most basic things," Michael said. "Hopefully, this will also give the start for other wedding dinners to be held here with our brothers and sisters in need." 1. Why did so many people c row d in Kilis? A. To attend Michael and Linda's wedding. B. To support the organization. C. To escape the damaging earthquake. D. To help distribute

Quiet carriages on trains are a nice idea: travelers voluntarily make their phones silent, turn stereos off and keep chatter to a minimum. However, in reality, there is usually at least one silly babbler(喋喋不休的人) to break the silence. A couple of problems prevent peaceful trips. First, there is a sorting problem: some passengers end up in the quiet carriage by accident and are not aware of the rules. Second, there is a commitment problem: noise is sometimes made by travelers who choose the quiet carriage but find an important call hard to ignore. The train operators are trying to find answers. Trains in Queensland Australia, are having permanent signs added to show exactly what is expected; a British operator has invested in some technology to prevent phone calls. Microeconomics suggests another approach. Fining people for making a noise would surely dissuade(劝阻) the polluter and is a neat solution in theory, but it requires costly monitoring and enforcement. Another way would be to use prices to separate quiet and noisy passengers－in effect, creating a market for silence. A simple idea would be to sell access to the quiet carriage as an optional extra when the ticket is bought. Making the quiet coach both an active choice and a costly one would dissuade many of those who don’t value a peaceful ride. Charging may also solve the commitment problem. This is particularly tricky, as attitudes to noise can

高三第二阶段英语试题 出题人: 李庆明审题人: 杨丽丽 第二部分阅读理解（共两节,共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分） 第一节阅读下面的短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A，B，C，D）中，选出最佳选项。 A Micro-Enterprise Credit for Street Youth Introduction Although small-scale business training and credit programs have become more common throughout the world, relatively little attention has been paid to the need to direct such opportunities to youth living on the street or in difficult circumstances. Over the past years, Street Kids International (S.K.I.) has been working with partner organizations in Africa, Latin Africa and India to support the economic lives of street children. The purpose of this paper is to share some of the lessons S.K.I. and our partner organizations have learned. Background Typically, children end up on the streets not due to a single cause, but a combination of factors: the lack of adequately funded schools, the demand for income at home and so on. The street may be attractive to children as a place to find adventurous play and money. However, it is also a place where some children are exposed, with little or no protection, to exploitative employment, and urban crime. Street Business Partnerships S.K.I. has worked with partner organizations in Latin America, Africa and India to develop innovative opportunities for street children to earn income. ● The S.K.I Bicycle Courier Service first started in the Sudan. Participants in this enterprise were supplied with bicycles, which they used to deliver parcels and messages, but they were required to pay for it gradually from their wages. ● The Youth Skills Enterprise Initiative in Zambia is a joint program with the Red Cross Society. Street Youths are supported to start their own small business through business training, life skills training and access to credit. Lessons Learned The following lessons have emerged from the programs that S.K.I. and partner organizations have created.
