better jobs.What is a good job？They think a good job is interesting and can make a person relax and earn a lot of money.But they dont know that almost all of the good jobs are usually the most

learn to fly small aircraft and they must be at least 30 years old.Many successful athletes are young.Football and tennis stars are usually under 35.Older people cant move fast enough and can only be coaches.Most people work until they are 60 or 65 years old before they retire.Some people have a lot of spare time.These people usually have interesting jobs；for example，they are writers，artists，musicians，or actors.Their work is their lives.They are all lucky.第二部分：阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从各题所给的4个选项(A、B、C、D)中选出最佳选项。AAs early as 1894，the newlyformed International Olympic Committee (IOC) considered ice skating as a possibility for the first modern Olympic Games which would be held in 1896.In 1911，a member of the IOC suggested that winter sports should be staged as part of the 1912 Olympics in Helsinki.Some opposed the idea.At last，the IOC decided to hold Winter Olympic Games in 1916.However，World War broke out in 1914.After 1920，the national governing bodies for winter sports in several countries began talking about the possibility of a separate Winter Olympics.The town of Chamonix，in the French Alps，planned to hold a winter sports festival in 1924，at the same time Paris was to host the Olympics.The Marquis de Polignac，a member of the IOC，suggested that the festival be formally recognized as the Winter Olympic Games.The IOC didnt go that far，but did agree that Chamonix could call its festival an “Olympic winter carnival”The festival drew 258 athletes from 16 countries to compete in bobsledding (雪橇车比赛)，figure skating，hockey，Nordic skiing and speed skating.Charles Jewtraw from the United States won the first gold medal，in the 500meter speed skating，but the festivals hero was Claus Thunberg from Finland.He won five medals，three of which were gold，in speed skating.Weather has often been a major story at the Winter Olympics，and so it was at Chamonix.The festival opened with rain and unseasonably warm temperature that turned snow and ice to mud.Then temperature dropped as far as 25 below zero and the mud became ice.Despite the weather，more than 10,000 people showed up.At its yearly meeting in 1925，the IOC recognized the Chamonix festival as the first Winter Olympics and decided that the Winter Games would be held every four years，just like the Summer Olympics.语篇解读本文简单介绍了冬季奥运会的由来。21Why was the first Winter Olympic Games not held in 1916?ABecause the IOC didnt agree to it.BBecause it was still under discussion.CBecause some people opposed the idea.DBecause World War broke out in 1914.解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“However，World War broke out in 1914.”可知是第一次世界大战打断了冬奥会的进程。答案：D22How many years earlier was the first modern Olympic Games held than the first Winter Olympic Games?A16.B24.C.28.D29.解析：推理判断题。根据第一段的“for the first modern Olympic Games which would be held in 1896”可知第一届现代奥运会是1896年召开；根据第三段和最后一段可知第一届冬奥会是1924年召开，通过计算可知C正确。答案：C23We can know from the passage that_.Athe weather destroyed the first Winter OlympicsBpeople from 16 countries watched the first Winter OlympicsCCharles Jewtraw won the most medals in the first Winter OlympicsDFinland got at least 3 gold medals in speed skating in the first Winter Olympics解析：推理判断题。根据第四段的“Claus Thunberg from Finland.He won five medals，three of which were gold，in speed skating”可知芬兰的Claus Thunberg在速滑中得到了3枚金牌，由此可推断芬兰至少在速滑中得到了3枚金牌。答案：D24Whats the best title for the passage?AThe development of the OlympicsBThe importance of weather in the OlympicsCThe story of the first Winter Olympic GamesDHow did the Winter Olympics come into being?解析：主旨大意题。阅读全文可知本文讲述的是冬季奥运会发展形式的整个过程，所以D正确。答案：DBEarthquakes.Floods (洪水)It seems that every day we read about at least one of these somewhere in the world.But every year，somewhere，another kind of disaster causes great damage to plants and people.Its something much smaller and not so wellknown as an earthquakeits an insect called the locust (蝗虫)The locust usually lives on its own and eats on its own.But，sometimes，something changes the way nature works.When the number of locusts increases somewhere and there are lots of plants to eat，the locusts get together in swarmsPerhaps the most dangerous locust is the desert locust.It is found in Africa，the Middle East，and Asiain about 60 countries altogether.When desert locusts swarm，they bring problems to onetenth of all the humans in the world.A swarm of desert locusts can be 1,200 km2 in sizeimagine an area that is over 20 kilometres wide and 50 kilometres long，full of locusts！And there can be 50 million locusts in each square kilometre.Each locust eats its own weight in plants every dayso a swarm of desert locusts can eat more than 150 million kilos of food in one day.They can also fly very long distancesin 1954 a swarm of locusts from northwest Africa flew thousands of miles to finally land in Great Britain!Its no wonder that farmers in many countries of the world fear the desert locust more than snakes.Its the desert locust that destroys the harvest (收成) and brings hunger to people all over the world.语篇解读本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了蝗灾的规模及危害。25The author mentions some disasters at the beginning of the text to_.Ashow the damage of disastersBcompare different kinds of disastersCattract readers attention to the topicDprovide some key facts about the topic解析：写作手法题。文章通过一些常见的自然灾害引出本文要谈论的话题蝗灾。答案：C26The underlined word “swarms” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “_”AgroupsBlinesCorderDspeed解析：词义猜测题。根据文章第二段的When the number of locusts increases somewhere and there are lots of plants to eat，the locusts get together及第四段的A swarm of desert locusts can be 1,200 km2 in size可知，蝗虫的数量不断增加就会成为群，而且由1,200 km2的尺寸可知是一大群蝗虫。答案：A27What makes desert locusts so dangerous?AThey are very big.BThey live all over the world.CThey can form huge swarms.DThey hurt people sometimes.解析：推理判断题。根据第四段的描述可知，数量巨大的沙漠蝗虫铺天盖地，会吃掉大量的庄稼，给人类造成巨大的危害。答案：CCA team of middle schoolers from North Dakota has turned a prizewinning idea into reality with their Recycling Bin app (废物回收箱应用软件)The app encourages recycling by providing users with a searchable map of nearby recycling centers.The group of nine sixth graders from STEM Center Middle School，in West Fargo，North Dakota，came up with the idea as part of a school program for the Verizon Innovative App Challenge.The competition was designed by the Verizon Foundation to increase students interest in science，technology，engineering，and math，or STEM.It asks students to think of an app that could solve (解决) a problem in their school.The students came up with the Recycling Bin when they saw a need for more recycling in their school for a long time.“We thought that this would really help a lot of people，” Jaden Hilkemann,12，said.They kept their idea simple so that anyone could use it.The middle schoolers were surprised when they were among the ten national winning teams.“I didnt think our app was this good！” Joram Stith,12，said.“We were the youngest winning group.”With the help of the Massachusetts Institute of Technologys Media Lab，they turned their idea into an app ready for download.“We had groups of two or three people each developing one part of the app，” Hunter Koehmstedt,12，said.“We worked together and it was great.” Jacob Pfeifer,12，added that they learned a lot working together.“At first，we all didnt agree on exactly what we wanted it to do，but in the end we all came to an agreement，” he said.In June，the free Recycling Bin app became available for download.“I was very excited when it went up on the app store，” Seralyn Blake,12，said.“A lot of my family members downloaded the app.It was pretty cool.”语篇解读本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了一款实用的环保应用软件。28What do we know about the

allow the Odeon Triplex Cinema to be built at the Havenswood Shopping Center？Some people are over_the_moon_about the idea of finally having our own movie theater in Havenswood.However，others would rather travel ten miles north to the nearest theater in Gadway in order to keep our quiet town the way it is.They say it is enough to have Marvins Movie Video Rentals (租赁) in the shopping center.Of course，you can plan your own moviewatching schedule by renting and viewing movies when it is convenient for you.You can talk to friends or family members who are watching the movie with you without bothering any strangers seated nearby.It is also a less expensive way to view a movie compared to going to a theater，especially if more than one person is watching the video.On the other hand，seeing a movie in a theater is an experience all its own.You can see the movie on a wide screen.To be viewed on a television screen，a film must be changed in some way to make it smaller，which results in a picture that is not complete.Another issue is sound.The sound from a television，even when you have a home stereo system (立体音响)，cannot compare to the sound system in a movie theater.Your experience of a movie improves when you can clearly hear all of the sounds，loud and soft.Furthermore，at home，viewing companions (同伴) often talk during a movie，which makes you miss out on whats happening in the film.Besides，having a movie theater will not mean that you cant still go to Marvins and rent a movie！You will just have a choice that you didnt have before.Isnt it time for Havenswood people to enjoy a little progress?语篇解读本文是议论文。作者就家乡是否修建电影院表达了个人看法。32The underlined part “over the moon about” can be replaced by “_”Ashy of
