Urbanization

Until relatively recently, the vast majority of human beings lived and died without ever seeing a city. The first city was probably founded no more than 5,500 years ago 1. . In fact, nearly everyone lived on farms or in tiny rural (鄉(xiāng)村的) villages. It was not until the 20th century that Great Britain became the first urban society in history--- a society in which the majority of people live in cities and do not farm for a living.

Britain was only the beginning.  2. .The process of urbanization--- the migration (遷移) of people from the countryside to the city--- was the result of modernization, which has rapidly transformed how people live and

where they live.

In 1990, fewer than 40% of Americans lived in urban areas. Today, over 82% of Americans live in cities. Only about 2% live on farms.  3. .

Large cities were impossible until agriculture became industrialized. Even in advanced agricultural societies. It took about ninety-five people on farms to feed five people in cities. _ 4. . Until modern times, those living in cities were mainly the ruling elite(精英) and the servants, laborers and professionals who served them. Cities survived by taxing farmers and were limited in size by the amount of surplus food that the rural population produced and by the ability to move this surplus from farm to city.

Over the past two centuries, the Industrial Revolution has broken this balance between the city and the country  5._ Today, instead of needing ninety-five farmers to feed five city people, one American farmer is able to feed more than a hundred non-farmers.

 

A. That kept cities very small.

B. The rest live in small towns.

C. The effects of urban living on people should be considered.

D. Soon many other industrial nations become urban societies.

E. But even 200 years ago, only a few people could live in cities.

F. Modernization drew people to the cities and made farmers more productive.

G. Modern cities have destroyed social relations and the health of human beings.

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2014屆河北省邯鄲市高三3月月考英語(yǔ)試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

Speaking from my past experience, it is very difficult to find good friends that you can trust but once you have found them, they are worth keeping forever! Therefore, I think friendship is the most important relationship that anybody could have.

The qualities I look for in a friend are a good sense of humor but sensitivity when it matters. Also that friend would have to be strong-minded and highly spirited. I think that these qualities are the key qualities to look for in a good friend.

Even the strongest friends can still have arguments, although usually about more serious topics, rather than the usual teenage childish arguments. Some matters can seriously affect a friendship. If one of your friends started experimenting with harmful and dangerous drugs, what would you do ? A good friend would try to help as much as possible, whereas a bad example of a friend would simply shrug(聳肩) and turn a blind eye.

Not only the bad things affect friendship ---- good activities do too. Such as bonding with one another, not just by going out on a night with them but by spending quality time with them and talking to each other, which indicates a good ability to communicate. This is a key aspect of a good friendship.

Good friends do not always have to be in the same age group as you. I have a good friend and she is 47 years old and I am 16.

Unfortunately, some people lose contact with their friends as they grow older, which is a sad way to lose a good friend.

I think friendship is one of the most important things in life because if you have no friends you will have no happiness.

1.According to the author, true friendship _______.

A. is easy to get B. deepens with time

C. needs management D. affects one’s happiness

2.Paragraph 3 is mainly about______.

A. why drugs are bad for teenagers

B. problems that will test friendship

C. ways that help avoid arguments

D. whether a friend is trustworthy

3.According to the author, which matters least in friendship?

A. Age. B. Sensitivity.

C. Sense of humor. D. Communication ability.

4.Which of the following saying can match the author’s view on friendship?

A. Old friends and old wines are best.

B. A friend without faults will never be found.

C. A life without a friend is a life without the sun.

D. a friend to everybody is a friend to nobody.

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:2014-2015學(xué)年浙江省嘉興市高二暑假作業(yè)檢測(cè)英語(yǔ)試卷(解析版) 題型:閱讀理解

Today, as in every other day of the year, more than 3,000 U.S. adolescents will smoke their first cigarette on their way to becoming regular smokers as adults. During their lifetime, it can be expected that of these 3,000 about 23 will be murdered, 30 will die in traffic accidents, and nearly 750 will be killed by a smoking-related disease. The number of deaths due to cigarette smoking outweighs all other factors, whether voluntary or involuntary, as a cause of death.

Since the late 1970s, when daily smoking among high school seniors reached 30 percent, smoking rates among youth have declined. While the decline is impressive, several important issues must be raised.

First, in the past several years, smoking rates among youth have declined very little. Second, in the late 1970s, smoking among male high school seniors beat that among female by nearly 10 percent . The statistic is reversing (完全相反的). Third, several recent studies have indicate high school dropouts have excessively high smoking rates, as much as 75 percent .

Finally, though significant declines in adolescent smoking have occurred in the past decade, no definite reasons for the decline exist. Within this context, the National Cancer Institute (NCI) began its current effort to determine the most effective measures to reduce smoking level among youth.

1.According to the author, the deaths among youth are mainly caused by _____.

A. traffic accidents B. smoking-related disease

C. murder D. all of these

2. Every day there are over _____ high school students who will become regular smoker.

A.75 B.23 C.30 D.3000

3.By "dropout" the author means ________

A. students who failed the examination

B. students who left school

C. students who lost their way

D. students who were driven out of school

4.The reason for declining adolescent smoking is that ________.

A. NCI has taken effective measures

B. smoking is prevented among high school seniors

C. there are many smokers who have died of cancer

D. none of these

5.What is implied by the author is that ________.

A. smoking rates among youth have declined very little

B. there are now more female than male smokers among high school seniors

C. high smoking rates are due to the increase in wealth

D. smoking at high school are from low socio-economic backgrounds
