閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A、B、C、D 四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)
One day, a college student was taking a walk with a professor. As they went along, they saw lying in the path a pair of old shoes. They supposed the shoes belonged to a poor man who was employed in a field close by, and who had nearly finished his day’s word.
The student turned to the professor, saying, “ Let us play the man a trick: we will hide his shoes, and hide ourselves behind those bushes, and wait to see his confusion when he cannot find them”. “My young friend,” answered the professor, “we should never amuse ourselves at the expense of the poor. But you are rich, and may give yourself a much greater pleasure by tricking on the poor man. Put a coin into each shoe, and then we will hide ourselves and watch how the discovery affects him.”
The student did so, and they both placed themselves behind the bushes close by. The poor man soon finished his work, and came across the field to the path where he had left his coat and shoes. After he slipped his foot into one of his shoes, he felt something hard. He bent down to feel what it was, and found the coin. Astonishment and wonder were seen on his face.
He fixed his eyes on the coin, turned it round, and looked at it again and again. He then looked around him on all sides, but no person was to be seen. He now put the money into his pocket,
and continued to put on the other shoe; but his surprise was doubled on finding the other coin. His feelings overcame him. He fell upon his knees, looked up to heaven and cried a sincere thanksgiving, in which he spoke of his wife, sick and helpless, and his children without bread, Whom the timely help, from some unknown hand, would save from dying.
The student stood there, deeply affected, and his eyes filled with tears.“Now,”said the professor,“are you not much better pleased than if you had played your intended trick?”The youth replied,“You have taught me a lesson which I will never forget.
56.The student wanted to play the poor man a trick to _________________.
A.find the truth B.show his wisdom
C.a(chǎn)muse himself D.teach him a lesson
57.After finding the two coins, the man felt_____________.

D.Actions speak louder than words.

Tips for Cycle Trips
Cycling has many advantages as a form of travel, as it is the fastest way to travel by human
Power, and slow enough to allow the type of local involvement that is impossible with powered travel.Cycle travel is a cheap form of transportation.
Distance
On level terrain(地形),without a headwind, a cyclist of average fitness on a touring bike can comfortably cover 60-120km a day.Distances of up to 250km a day are possible, but anything much beyond 120km will require considerable physical tension and not allow many stops to enjoy
the places you visit.For many,80-100km a day will be the most suitable distance to aim for, as it will give a sense of achievement and also leave plenty of time for meals and activities. 高三英語(yǔ)試題及答案 第7 頁(yè)(共20 頁(yè))
Geography
The gradient(坡度)of the trip will reduce your range.A basic rule is that for every 100
metres of altitude you climb, you should add an extra 15 minutes to your journey time.In hilly or mountainous areas, the easiest routes for cycling are downstream along major rivers, as overall they will be downhill.A long, roundabout route along a river will usually be easier than a short, direct route over a hill or mountain pass.However, it is worth bearing in mind that the most scenic
routes often come from hilly terrain.
Eat
Food choice depends largely on where you are, so see the respective sections for more
information about foods. As you will be working hard, it's important to get enough energy in your
And would you really like to visit the future?In H.G.Wells' book,the main character travels into distant time where he arrives at a beach and is attacked by giant crabs.He then voyages 30 million years into the future where the only living thing is a black object with tentacles(觸角). If that's what's in store, maybe we are better just living in the present day after all.

D
Speed-reading is a necessary skill in the Internet age.We skim over articles, e-mails and
WeChat to try to grasp key words and the essential meaning of a certain text.Surrounded with information from our electronic devices, it would be impossible to cope if we read word by word, line by line.But a new trend calls on people to unplug and enjoy reading slowly, listing benefits beyond the intelligent stimulation.
A recent story from The Wall Street Journal reported on a book club in Wellington, New
Zealand, where members meet in a cafe and turn off their smartphones.They sink into cozy chairs
and read in silence for an hour. Unlike traditional book clubs, the point of the slow reading club isn't exchanging ideas about a certain book, but to get away from electronic devices and read
in a quiet, relaxed environment. According to the Journal, the Wellington book club is just one example of a movement started by book lovers who miss the old-fashioned way of reading before the Internet and smartphones.
Slow readers, such as The Atlantic's Maura Kelly, say a regular reading habit sharpens the mind, improves concentration, reduces stress levels and deepens the ability to
sympathize. Another study published last year in Science showed that reading novels helps
people understand other's mental states and beliefs, a fundamental skill in building relationships. Yet technology has made us less attentive readers. Screens have changed our reading
patterns from the straight and information.left-to-right sequence to a wild skimming and skipping
pattern as we hunt for important words and information. Reading text punctuated with links leads
to weaker comprehension than reading plain text. The Internet may have made us stupider, says Patrick Kingsley from The Guardian. Because of the Internet, he says, we have become very good at collecting a wide range of interesting news, but we are also gradually forgetting how to sit
back, reflect, and relate all these facts to each other.
Slow reading means a return to an uninterrupted, straight pattern, in a quiet environment free of distractions. Aim for 30 minutes a day, advises Kelly from The Atlantic. “You can squeeze in that half hour pretty easily if only during your free moments, you pick up a meaningful work of literature,” Kelly said. “Reach for your e-reader, if you like. Kindles make books like War and Peace less heavy, not less substantive, and also ensure you'll never lose your place.”
67.The book club in Wellington mentioned in Paragraph 2 shows____________.
A.the new trend of slow reading B.the decline of electronic devices
C.the importance of exchanging ideas D.the increasing number of club readers
68.According to Patrick Kingsley, people are stupider partly because of_____________.
A.a(chǎn) non-stop reading pattern B.the straight, left-to-right screen
C.a(chǎn) wide range of interesting news D.the lack of reflection
69.According to the passage, slow reading___________.
A.contributes to understanding among people
B.promotes the current technology advances
C.provides people with a quiet environment
D.cures the memory loss of elderly people
70.What's the best title for the passage?
A.Benefit of Reading Clubs. B.Return of Slow Reading.
C.Reading of the Internet Age. D.Influence of Speed Reading.

Attraction of the Minions
When it comes to film, people usually favor good over evil, focus on the hero and ignore the supporting characters. __71 __
Originally comedic background characters in the film
Despicable Me(卑鄙的我), these yellow pill-shaped nuts, have
totally stolen the show and turned into a popular figure.
This summer the characters debuted(首演) in their own
self-titled movie in theaters abroad, having the second biggest
opening weekend of all time for a cartoon film according to USA
Today. Recently, McDonald’s has been including Minion toys with
kids’ meals in some areas, causing loyal fans to flock to the restaurant
to collect them all. __72 __
The movie’s huge popularity even surprised its writers. “We never
knew the Minions were
going to be so popular. It just became a force of nature,” the film’s co-writer Cinco Paul told the
Los Angeles Times.
__73 __For many, the appeal is obviously their cuteness. Their simple nature can easily surpass cultures and age groups. Even children can draw them. Thousands of examples of fan-made Minion art from fingernails to Halloween clothes are visible on global social media platforms.
But there’s more to the phenomenon than just cuteness. US entertainment website Hit Fix explains that their way of communicating makes the creatures influential as well. __74 __ But it seems everyone can understand them through their exaggerated(夸張的) movements and expressions.
More importantly, their childlike mannerisms is a brand of humor that wins hearts. “Clumsy, foolish Minions are recognized as the ultimate β personalities,” wrote Peter Debruge of US entertainment magazine Variety.
They desire nothing more than to serve their most despicable master. __75__ "Perhaps we love Minions because they remind us of ourselves," Huffington Post associate Web editor Sara Boboltz wrote, "or an evil version of ourselves."
A. So what makes the banana-loving Minions a big hit?
B. Besides, their childlike manner entertains fans more.
C. And this evil characteristic arouses sympathy among humans.
D. Related video games, toys and other goods are sweeping the world.
E. Minions is a 2015 American 3D computer-animated family comedy film.
F. But when it comes to the Minions, these conventions go right out the window.
G. The largely speak in nonsense words with the occasional recognizable terms like “potato”. 第四部分:書(shū)面表達(dá)(共兩節(jié),35 分)

To help the international students understand Chinese culture better, our school decided to set up a “Chamber of China”.
In the morning, the teacher assigned us to decorate the room. We felt quite excited and started soon. We first moved the desks and chairs away and cleaned the
classroom thoroughly. After that, we began to decorate the room. Some of us put up the traditional paper cut “Fu” and also Chinese painting on the wall while others drew the Great Wall and lanterns on the blackboard. Everybody was working in high spirits.
The next day, the international students came to the chamber and were amazed to see the decorations. Their praise and thanks gave us a great sense of achievement.
