A [2015 •山東淄博實驗中學高三4月教學診斷]

    Few of us haven't read Cinderella ， the story of a young woman living in poverty who meets the prince of her dreams. Some might not want to admit it, but there is a

hidden Cin?derella in everyone's heart―we all wish  we could achieve rec?ognition or success after a period of obscurity(默默無聞).

   Mary Santiago has that secret dream, too. Her story is featured in Another Cinderella Story ， a film set in a US high school.

Mary is shy but loves to dance. Compared with other girls, she is invisible. However, her world changes complete?ly when a famous teenager pop singer, Joey Parker, appears.

Joey has everything the rest of the boys in her class don't have―kind, handsome and desirable. Mary and Joey's paths cross at a ball. They meet and fall in love with each other. But when Mary has to rush back home, she leaves behind her MP3 player, which becomes the only clue Joey has to find the girl of his dreams. Of course, there is a wicked stepmother, who turns out to be Dominique Blatt and she takes in Mary-after her dancer mother dies. Dominique treats Mary like a maid and does everything she can to make sure Mary doesn't get into the top dance school. Her two daughters are equally determined to stop Joey falling for Mary, even if that means embarrassing her.

The story, though it mostly follows Cinderella, does add a few modern-day twists to the classic fairy tale. Refresh?ingly, the film, unlike many high school films, does not focus on looks, although the actors are all beautiful. There is also a lot less materialism in Another Cinderella Story than in many similar movies.

The movie takes the Cinderella fairy tale as its jump?ing-off point," writes movie critic Amber Wilkinson. "Yet the focus is firmly on following your dreams."

1. The first paragraph is mainly to .

 A.     inform us of the importance to marry a prince

B.     remind us why Cinderella is popular all the years

C.     build interest and lead us to Mary's secret dream

D.     tell us how interesting the fairy tale Cinderella is

2. What can we infer from the passage?

 A.    Joey is just like other boys in Mary's class.

B.     The MP3 player helps Joey in finding Mary.

C.     Not many people have a dream to be realized.

D.    Mary's mother influences her a lot in singing.

3. What does the movie critic Amber Wilkinson mean by his words about Another Cinderella Story ？

A. The movie is exactly another copy of the Cinderella fairy tale.

B.     The movie is as good as the story Cinderella.

C.     The movie and Cinderella both focus on following your dreams.

D.     The movie is based on the story Cinderella while a lit?tle different from it.

4.  The passage is mainly about .

A.     an introduction to Mary Santiago

B.     a review about a film

C.     an essay about dreams

D.     an advertisement of Cinderella

B  [2015 山東濰坊一模]

The poaching, or illegal killing, of rhinos (犀牛)in South Africa is growing worse each year. The government re?cently reported that a record number of rhinos were poached in 2014， a year which had more rhino killings in South Africa than ever before.

The World Wild Fund for Nature ( WWF) says about 20,000 rhinos live in South Africa. 丁hat is more than 80 per cent of the rhinos in the world. Edna Molewa, South Africa's environmental issues minister, says, "During 2014, we are sad to say this, 1 ，215 rhinos were killed. This is a rise in the number of poached rhinos from 1 ，004 in 2013. This is indeed very worrying.，，

The animals are hunted for their horns(角).Many peo?ple in Asia believe the horn has healing power, which drives poachers, at all costs, mad for more horns. But there is no scientific evidence for this belief. The horn is made of kera?tin. That is the same substance as human hair, fingernails and toenails.

Ms Molewa said 386 suspected poachers were arrested last year, an increase from the year before. But rhino protec?tion workers say poachers often go unpunished after arrest. South Africa's legal system is ineffective.

Ms Molewa said more needs to be done and South Africa is taking strong measures to protect rhinos. The efforts in?clude moving some of the animals to secret places in neigh?bouring countries. "Now approximately 100 rhinos have been moved to neighbouring states in the SADC region during 2014 and 200 more rhinos will be moved this year," Molewa said.

Jo Shaw, rhino programme manager at the WWF， said, "We're talking about a loss of a hundred rhinos a month, or more than three a day. We really need to see effective action not just on a national level but internationally. " She said offi?cials should find the criminal groups responsible for the poac?hing and punish them.

 Conservationists(自然環(huán)境保護主義者）and government officials are to meet in Botswana in March at the Intergovern?mental Conference on Illegal Wildlife Trade. They will talk about ways to stop the trade in rhino horns. That may be the only way to stop the killing of rhinos.

4.What do we know about rhinos?

 

A.     Half of the rhinos live in South Africa.

B.     Less than 1,000 rhinos were killed in 2013.

C.     The killing reached the highest point in 2014.

D.     There are only 20,000 rhinos left in the world.

5.What is the main reason for people to hunt rhinos?

 

A.     To get more keratin.

B.     To protect the farmland.

C.     To use them for decoration.

D.     To make money from horns.

6.Jo Shaw thinks that____________ .

 

A.     many criminal groups are well organized

B.     new laws are needed to punish the killers

C.     rhino protection needs international cooperation

D.     conferences about protecting rhinos are to be held every year

7.What can we infer from the passage?

 

A.     Rhino protection has a long way to go.

B.     No one would like to buy horns in the future.

C.     The illegal killing of rhinos will soon disappear.

D.     Rhinos living in South Africa will be moved to other countries.

A [2015'山東臨沂高三二�！絀 often teach about happiness and what has become clear is this ： there are some qualities unhappy people always have. Here are some of them.

Happy people know life can be hard and tend to live through hard times. They take responsibility for how they got themselves into a mess, and focus on getting themselves out of it as soon as possible. Unhappy people see themselves as victims of life and stay stuck in the " look what happened to me" attitude instead of finding a way through and out to the other side.

Most happy people believe in the good in people instead of thinking everyone is out to get them. Generally open and friendly towards people they meet,happy people foster(培養(yǎng)) a sense of community around themselves and meet new people with an open heart. Unhappy people are distrustful of most people they meet and think strangers can't be trusted. Unfor?tunately, this behaviour slowly closes all the chances of meet?ing new friends.

Unhappy people believe someone else's good fortune is stolen from them. They believe there's not enough goodness to go around and always compare others' against theirs. This leads to jealousy(忌妒).Happy people know that others' good luck and circumstances are just signs of what they also can a-chieve if they try hard enough. They believe in unlimited pos?sibilities and don't get stuck in thinking one person's good fortune limits their possible outcomes in life.

There's only so much space between the two ears. Un?happy people fill that space with constant worry or fear. Hap?py people experience fear or worry too,but they make an im?portant difference between feeling it and living with it. When fear or worry crosses happy people's mind, they'll ask them?selves if there's action they can take to prevent their fear or worry from happening and they take it. If not ， they realize they're spinning in fear and they lay it down.

  1. Paragraph 2 mainly shows that unhappy people tend to

A.    focus on what they really want

B.     get worried about what will happen

C.     stay focused on the past misfortunes

D.    find a way to live through hard times

2. According  to  Paragraphs   3   and  4 ， unhappy  people [

A. like making some new friends

B.      hate seeing others with good fortune

C.      are more likely to be cheated by strangers

D.     believe they can get good luck by working hard

 3.What is implied about happy people?

 A.     They don't think life is hard.

B.     They hardly ever fear anything.

C.     They try to get out of their fear or worry.

D.     They don't believe in every people they meet.

4. How is the text mainly developed?

 A.     By making comparisons.

B.     By giving examples.

C.     By showing detailed data.

D.     By proving some theories.

A [2015 .福建漳州市八校高三聯(lián)考] Would it surprise you to learn that, like animals, trees communicate with each other and pass on their wealth to the next generation?

UBC Professor Simard explains how trees are much more complex than most of us ever imagined. Although Charles Darwin thought that trees are competing for survival of the fittest, Simard shows just how wrong he was. In fact, the opposite is true: trees survive through their cooperation and support, passing around necessary nutrition "depending on who needs it".

Nitrogen(氣)and carbon are shared through miles of un?derground fungi (真菌)networks, making sure that all trees in the forest ecological system give and receive just the right amount to keep them all healthy. This hidden system works in a very similar way to the networks of neurons(神經(jīng)元)in our brains, and when one tree is destroyed, it affects all.

Simard talks about "mother trees", usually the largest and oldest trees on which all other trees depend. She explains how dying trees pass on the wealth to the next generation, transporting important minerals to young trees so they may continue to grow. When humans cut down " mother trees" with no awareness of these highly complex "tree societies" or the networks on which they feed, we are reducing the chances of survival for the entire forest.

"We didn't take any notice of it. ，， Simard says sadly. "Dying trees move nutrition into the young trees before dy?ing, but we never give them chance. ，， If we could put across the message to the forestry industry, we could make a huge difference towards our environmental protection efforts for the future.

1.What would be the best title for the passage?

A.     Old trees communicate like humans

B.     Young trees are in need of protection

C.     Trees contribute to our society

D.     Trees are more complex than you think

2. In Simard's opinion, trees .

 A.     compete for survival

B.     protect their own wealth

C.     depend on each other

D.     provide support for dying trees

3. We can learn from the passage that_____________ .

A. "mother trees" are usually of no use to other trees

B.     Charles Darwin had the same thought as Simard

C.     if "mother trees" are cut down, the survival for the entire forest will be affected

D.   people know much about the complex " tree societies"
4.  The underlined word "it" in the last paragraph refers to

A.     how "tree societies" work

B.     how trees grow old

C.     how forestry industry develops

D.     how young trees survive

Ⅱ.閱讀七選五[20〗5 •銀川一中高三第二次模擬〗

根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項中選出能填人空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。

Happiness is the only true measure of personal success. Making other people happy is the highest expression of suc?cess. 9 With that in mind, here are some suggestions that will immediately increase the amount of happiness in your life:10

If there's any big truth about life, it's that it usually lives up to your expectations. Therefore, when you rise from bed, make your first thought: "Something wonderful is going to happen today. ，， Guess what? You're probably right.

Take time to plan and prioritize(優(yōu)先處理).

The most common source of stress is the thought that you've got too much work to do. Rather than worry about it, pick one thing that will move you closer to your highest goal and purpose in life. Then do that first.

Eat high quality food slowly.

 11  Even so, at least once a day try to eat something really delicious, like a small chunk of fine cheese or an imported chocolate. Taste it, focus on it and enjoy it. Let go of your results.

The big enemy of happiness is worry, which comes from focusing on events that are outside your control. Once you've taken action，  there's usually nothing more you can do. 12

End each day with gratitude.

Just before you go to bed, write down at least one won?derful thing that happened. It might be something as small as making a child laugh or something as huge as a million dollar deal. 13

A.     Start each day with expectations.

B.     Give a gift to everyone you meet.

C.     Think about the thing that makes your head hurt.

D.     It's impossible to make others happy if you're not happy.

E.     Whatever it is， be grateful for that day because it will never come again.

F.      Sometimes we can't avoid eating something quickly and running.

G.     Focus on the job at hand rather than some fantasy that might happen.

Some say college is wasted on the young. So many of us look back at our own college years and realize what we could have done differently to make the most of them. While we can't go back, we certainly can offer our sons and daughters our best advice to help them make the right choices in college. Hopefully, they will have fewer regrets than we do. Following are five guide?lines parents can share with their college-bound kids to put the whole experience in perspective.

EDUCATION IS YOUR FIRST PRIORITY

As soon as you arrive on campus, there will be competing interests. Feel free to check them out but always remember that you are there first and foremost for your education. Go to class prepared and on time. Be engaged during class. Make sure your professor knows you and realizes that you care.

BE RESPONSIBLE

There are many layers of responsibility. Do what you say you will do and, if you can't, own up to it early and communicate clearly.   But being responsible isn't just about meeting your commitments; it is also about taking care of you, your body, and your friends. For ex?ample, more than 1800 college students die annually from alcohol-related injuries. Look out for yourself and other people. Make moderate, sensible decisions so you aren't reeling from the consequences later. 

TAKE THE OPPORTUNITY

Incredible opportunities will present themselves: studying abroad, interning at a unique place, trying new things. Don't let fear prevent you from taking advantage of them. There may never be so much time or as many resources devoted to your betterment again in your life. Say yes to opportunities that will help you grow.

FIND AND BE A MENTOR

Some of the best lessons available to us can come outside of the classroom in the form of a mentor. One of the most powerful growth opportunities is being a men?tor. Early on, find someone on campus who you feel can help you grow and develop a relationship with him or her. Also find someone for you to mentor. You will reinforce and enrich your own learning experience by teaching someone else.

GET THE JOB DONE

It is natural to occasionally feel you want to quit, and it will make more sense to you when you go to find a full-time job. Resist that urge. As Jocelyn Negron-Ri-os， a mother of two, who is currently completing her degree, advises, "No matter how difficult it seems, keep at it because however insurmountable it feels now, multiply that by 10， 000 and that is how it feels when you are in your thirties with a full-time job and a family and are trying to pursue a degree.，，

5. According to the passage, the most important thing for college students is .

A. taking part in different activities

B. working hard to get a degree

C. seizing every chance to try new things

D. improving themselves by learning from the oth?ers

6. Which of the following about college life is TRUE?

A. Passing on what you've learned in college can help you enrich your learning experience.

B. Make sure that you are responsible for yourself rather than others.

C. Professors will not assess your performances in class but the grades you get in exams.

D. You can make full use of the opportunity when?ever you want.

7. What can we infer from the words said by Jocelyn in the last paragraph?

A. Persistence is the key to success when you meet

with difficulties in your learning process.

B. It is better if you gain more working experience before you finish your education.

C. As long as you work hard, you can gain a degree even when you are in your thirties.

D. Youth is the best time to learn since you have less burden.

8. What is the main purpose of the passage?

A. To give some rules for the college students.

B. To call on the students to make full use of college years.

C. To summarize some tips for parents to share with their children.

D. To analyze the benefits and difficulties of college life.
