1、1阅读理解-推理判断二1、 Do you remember the name of your kindergarten teacher? I do. Her name was Mrs White.I dont remember much about what we learned in her class, but my mother once told me that we used to write a lot. And I would bring back what I wrote and she would look at it and find there were so many

2、mistakes, but no red corrections, and always a star. Sometimes even a Good! This worried my mother, so one day when she went to meet Mrs White for one of those parent-teacher meetings, she asked her why she never red-penciled my mistakes in the right spellings of words or pointed out grammatical err

3、ors.“The children are just beginning to get excited about using words, or forming sentences. I dont want to damage that enthusiasm with red ink. Spelling and grammar can wait. The wonder of words wont,“ Mrs White said.Later I knew that if Mrs White had used her red pen often. I probably wouldnt be t

4、elling you about this now. I look back now and think she must have been a rather extraordinary teacher to exercise such red-pen-restraint(限制). I used to misspell “beautiful” a lot,and never could quite remember that the “e” went before the “a”. It annoyed my teacher in high school. If I was going to

5、 employ the word with such lavishness(华丽丰富的语言), she figured the least I could do was spell it right. Eventually the es and as settled into their right hold as much as you mean sometimes.And thanks to Mrs White, I had no worry about writing what I meant even if I couldnt quite spell it out. Because l

6、ife isnt “Pretty”. Its “Beautiful”.1.The underlined word “This” in the second paragraph refers to the fact that _.A.I always made mistakes in my spellingB.Mrs White often made wrong correctionsC.Mrs Whites attitude towards my mistakes was special2D.Mother wanted to know how to improve my spellings2.

7、From what Mrs White said, we can infer that _.A.grammar and spelling should be paid more attention toB.children dont have the patience in spelling wordsC.childrens interest of learning words is very importantD.red corrections are used to draw childrens attention3.The writer may probably think his/he

8、r high school teacher _.A.taught in the same way as Mrs White had doneB.was not satisfied with his/her mistakes made in spellingC.should tell him/her how to improve words spellingD.paid much attention to teaching students to use proper words2、 While famous foreign architects are invited to lead the

9、designs of landmark buildings inChina such as the new CCTV tower and the National Center for the Performing Arts,manyexcellent Chinese architects are making great efforts to take the center stage.Their efforts have been proven fruitful. Wang Shu,a 49-year-old Chinese architect,wonthe 2012 Pritzker A

10、rchitecture Prizewhich is often referred to as the Nobel Prize inarchitectureon February 28.He is the first Chinese citizen to win this award.Wang serves as head of the Architecture Department at the China Academy of Art (CAA). His office is located at the Xiangshan campus(校园) of the university in H

11、angzhou, Zhejiang Province.Many buildings on the campus are his original creations.The style of the campus is quite different from that of most Chinese universities.Manyvisitors were amazed by the complex architectural space and abundant building types.The curves(曲线) of the buildings perfectly match

12、 the rise and fall of hills, forming a unique view.Wang collected more than 7 million abandoned bricks of different ages.He asked theworkers to use traditional techniques to make the bricks into 3walls,roofs and corridors.Thiscreation attracted a lot of attention thanks to its mixture of modern and

13、traditional Chinese elements(元素).Wangs works show a deep understanding of modern architecture and a good knowledgeof traditions.Through such a balance,he had created a new type of Chinese architecture,saidTadao Ando,the winner of the1995 Pritzker Prize.Wang believes traditions should not be sealed i

14、n glass boxes at museums.“That is onlyevidence that traditions once existed,“ he said.“Many Chinese people have a misunderstanding of traditions.They think tradition meansold things from the past.In fact,tradition also refers to the things that have been developingand that are still being created, “

15、 he said.“Today,many Chinese people are learning Western styles and theories rather thanfocusing on Chinese traditions.Many people tend to talk about traditions without knowingwhat they really are,“ said Wang.The study of traditions should be combined with practice. Otherwise,the recreation oftradit

16、ions would be artificial and empty,he said.1.Wangs winning of the prize means that Chinese architects are _.A.following the latest world trendB.getting international recognitionC.working harder than ever beforeD.relying on foreign architects2.What impressed visitors to the CAA Xiangshan campus most?

17、A.Its hilly environment.B.Its large size.C.Its unique style.D.Its diverse functions.3.What made Wangs architectural design a success?A.The mixture of different shapes.B.The balance of East and West.C.The use of popular techniques.D.The harmony of old and new.44.What should we do about Chinese tradit

18、ions according to Wang?A.Spread them to the world.B.Preserve them at museums.C.Teach them in universities.D.Recreate them in practice.3、 Underground and floating(漂浮的) cities are seen as the best solutions as humanity will be facing a living space problem by 2115,a survey suggests.The global populati

19、on is expected to reach 11 billion in 100 years. Asked to rate a list of 10 choices by experts, two fifths of people support building downwards, while a third rely on the seas. One in ten of the 2,000 surveyed tell the TV channel, which did the survey for the show Impossible Engineering that they ex

20、pect we could be living on Mars.The human race will be forced to use the oceans and even dig underground to create more living space. According to the country-wide survey, four in ten Britons believe digging deep beneath the earths surface is the perfect solution to crowded conditions over ground.An

21、d a third think building cities in the sea using solar and tida(潮汐的) energy will be the answer, while a fifth believe “off-the-shelf” 3D-printed homes will be a cheaper way to the housing problem.And adults who were asked to choose their favorites put urban(都市的) farms in the top three with crops and

22、 animals on roofs among tall city buildings. More than one in ten of them feel space travel will have progressed so fast by 2115 that living on the moon or Mars will be a choice, while another one in ten of them say underwater cities will be the best idea. The survey to mark the beginning of the new

23、 series of Impossible Engineering also finds floating buildings with their own microclimates are the way the world will change.“Impossible Engineering shows how a series of seemingly unrelated breakthroughs(突破) can be put together to create amazing achievements of engineering, but anything could hap

24、pen in the next 50 years,” Dr Morgan said.51.How many people surveyed chose underground cities as the best solution?A.200.B.400.C.600.D.800.2.In which country was the survey done?A.Britain.B.America.C.Canada.D.China.3.Urban farms are likely to exist in _.A.3D-printed homesB.outer space homesC.floati

25、ng homesD.high-rise homes4.What does Dr Morgan think of solving the living space problem in the future?A.Challenging.B.Promising.C.Interesting.D.Worrying.4、 The U.S. Department of Labor statistics (统计) show that there is an oversupply of college-trained workers and that this oversupply is increasing

26、. Already there have been more than enough teachers, engineers, physicists, aerospace experts, and other specialists. Yet colleges and graduate schools continue every year to turn out highly trained people to compete for jobs that arent there. The result is that graduates cannot enter the profession

27、s for which they were trained and must take temporary jobs which do not require a college degree. On the other hand, there is a great need for skilled workers of all sorts: 6carpenters, electricians, mechanics, plumbers, TV repairmen. These people have more work than they can deal with, and their an

28、nual incomes are often higher than those of college graduates. The old gap that white-collar workers make a better living than blue-collar workers no longer holds true. The law of supply and demand now favors the skilled workmen. The reason for this situation is the traditional myth that college deg

29、ree is a passport to a prosperous future. A large part of American society matches success in life equally with a college degree. Parents begin indoctrinating (灌输) their children with this myth before they are out of grade school. High school teachers play their part by acting as if high school educ

30、ation were a preparation for college rather than for life. Under this pressure the kids fall in line. Whether they want to go to college or not doesnt matter. Everybody should go to college, so of course they must go. And every year college enrollments (入学) go up and up, and more and more graduates

31、are overeducated for the kinds of jobs available to them. One result of this emphasis on a college education is that many people go to college who do not belong there. Of the sixty percent of high school graduates who enter college, half of them do not graduate with their class. Many of them drop ou

32、t within the first year. Some struggle on for two or three years and then give up.1.Its implied but not stated in the passage that _ .A.many other countries are facing the same problemB.white-collar workers in the US used to make more money than blue-collar workersC.fewer students will prefer to go

33、to college in the futureD.the law of supply and demand has a strong effect on American higher education2.Which of the following is NOT a reason why college enrollments go up every year?A.Many people believe that the only way to success is a college education.B.Many parents want their children to go

34、to college.7C.High school teachers urge their students to go to college.D.Every young man and woman wants to go to college.3.By saying that“many people go to college who do not belong there”, the author means that _ .A.many people who are not fit for college education go to collegeB.many people who

35、do not have enough money go to collegeC.many people who go to college drop out within the first yearD.many people who go to college have their hopes destroyed4.We can infer from the passage that the author believes that _ .A.every young man and woman should go to collegeB.college education is a bad

36、thingC.people with a college education should receive higher payD.fewer people should go to college while more should be trained for skilled jobs5、 It goes without saying, but bears repeating, there are too many cats and dogs without homes. While there are countless shelters and rescue centers that

37、exist, some potential pet owners look to pet shops to find their furry friends. All too often, however, these animals come from puppy and kitten mills (繁殖场) that treat the creatures in cruel ways. San Francisco, however, is doing their part to stop this abuse with pet store adoption. Officials recen

38、tly voted to ban the sale of non-rescue dogs and cats in local shops.The effect is two-fold. One, it will stop the popularity of the large-scale mills, which are famous for the miserable conditions cats and does are kept in. Two, it will help facilitate the adoption of thousands of animals that are

39、waiting for their forever homes in San Francisco shelters. District 4 Supervisor Katy Tang, who serves on the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, supported law-making on the ban. “Dogs and cats sold in pet stores often come from inhumane puppy and kitten mills that treat animals with no regard for t

40、heir health or well-being”, she wrote on Facebook. In her message, she also 8called on the U. S. Agriculture Department to reinstate information on its website that documents these types of animal cruelty casesit was removed earlier this month.San Franciscos law-making is a victory for those concern

41、ed about animal rights, and they arent the first city to pass this type of measure. Los Angeles, San Diego, Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston, and Austin also have similar laws in place, with hopefully more places to follow suit.1.What happened to some dogs and cats before they got in the pet stores?A.T

42、hey were treated cruelly.B.They were abandoned in streets.C.They received warm welcome.D.They were raised in shelters and rescue centers.2.Which of the following may Katy Tang agree with most?A.People should adopt the dogs and cats.B.Animals are too cruel to humans being.C.Government can choose to k

43、ill all the dogs and cats.D.It is not right to ban the sale of non-rescue dogs and cats in local shops.3.What does the underlined word “reinstate” in Paragraph 2 mean?A.updateB.replaceC.post againD.download4.What does the last paragraph mainly focus on?A.No Chinese city joins this type of movement.B

44、.San Francisco is the last city to ban pet stores.C.Americans care about animals more than humans.D.More and more cities are involved in animal rights.6、 Its rare that you see the words “shyness” and “letter” in the same sentence.After all,the common viewpoint is that those outgoing and sociable 9gu

45、ys make great public speakers and excellent networkers and that those shy people are not.A survey conducted by USA Today referred to 65 percent of executives who believed shyness to be a barrier to leadership.Interestingly,the same article stresses that roughly 40 percent of leaders actually are qui

46、te shytheyre just better at adapting themselves to situational demands.Bill Gates,Warren Buffet and Charles Schwab are just a few “innies“.Unlike their outgoing counterparts who are more sensitive to rewards and risk-taking,shy people take a cautious approach to chance.Rather than the flashy chit-ch

47、at that defines social gathering,shy people listen attentively to what others say and absorb it before they speak.Theyre not thinking about what to say while the other person is still talking,but rather listening so they can learn what to say.Along the same lines,shy people share a common love of le

48、arning.They are intrinsically (内在地) motivated and therefore seek content regardless of achieving an outside standard.Being shy can also bring other benefits.Remember being in school and hearing the same kids contribute,until shy little Johnny,who almost never said a word,cut in?Then what happened? E

49、veryone turned around to look with great respect at little Johnny actually talking.This is how shy people made good use of their power of presence: they “own“ the moment by speaking calmly and purposefully,which translate to a positive image.Shyness is often related to modesty.Not to say that limelight-seekers arent modest,but shy people tend to have an accurate sense of their abilities and achievements.As a result,they are able to acknowledge mistakes,imperfections, knowledge gaps and limitations.Sinc
