Students are required to take subjects like English, social studies, math, science, and PE. Moreover, they choose among elective subjects (选修科目)to complete their high school education. Electives include subjects in technology, music, art, and foreign languages. Each student in the school has their own locker for books and personal items. This saves students from carrying textbooks, and allows students a small space they can decorate with posters and favorite objects. Cheating in any form is strictly prohibited in American schools. And in fact, high school students usually dont cheat. If they are caught cheating, they will have to face severe punishment. Each school holds certain activities for all school students, such as homecoming（返校节）, prom night（学年舞会）, holiday celebrations, etc. While homecoming is celebrated at each school, it usually includes a parade and the crowning of Homecoming King and Queen and ends with a football game and school dance. The prom is a formal dance for students in grades 11 and 12,and is generally accepted as the most important social event of the school year. It can also be a time of anxiety, as boys have to work up the courage to ask a date to the prom, and girls hope the right boys will invite them.Most high schools have at least one sports team that competes in local games, and all students are encouraged to take part in sports.Many high school students have part-time jobs by the age of 15 or 16, some even earlier. Their first jobs are often babysitting or cutting lawns, but later they will likely get a job at a fast-food restaurant, video store, or clothing shop. Sixteen years old is legal(合法的) driving age in most states, and students usually want to own a car as soon as they can. Many teenagers feel its necessary to own a car, and will do whatever it takes to be able to drive.34. The underlined word “prohibited” in the third paragraph means .A. dropped B. agreed C. not encouraged D. not allowed35. Which of the following shows the structure(结构) of the passage?A. / B./C./ D./36. From the short passage we can know that .A. All high school hold some activities for students every yearB. American parents usually buy cars as presents for their childrenC. High school students must have part-time jobs by the age of 15 or 16D. If the American students can earn enough money they can buy a car to drive37. Which is the best title of this passage?A. How American Students StudyB. American High School LifeC. The Life of American StudentsD. Introduction to American SchoolCJane Austen ever popularThis summer, the UK will honor its favorite writers, Jane Austen (1775-1817), by making her the face of the new 10 note. In the 200 years since her death, Austen has been getting more and more popular all over the world.And yet Austens works are so English that its rather strange she should be so popular all over the world. Her novels are so of their time that its strange that shes still enjoyed in this very different age. Her most famous works including Pride and Prejudice, the one which she is most known for are about the world of the English gentry(贵族阶层)in the late 18th century. Most of her works are about young women of that time. Women of the gentry could not work so their chances of happiness or even basic living depended upon finding a husband. This is a very serious subject matter, of course, but the joy of Austens stories is her ability to make wonderful, but also touching, comedy out of something so serious. Take Pride and Prejudice as an example. Elizabeth Bennet is one of six daughters in a family that struggles with money problems. Her mother wants to marry off as many of them as possible. Mrs Bennet is one of the great comic characters of English literature. The novel is developed by the love-hate relationship between Elizabeth and Mr Darcy. The pleasure of the novel is reading how these obstacles(障碍) are overcome and how the comical and unexpected ending is achieved. If we think about this story, its clear why Jane Austen is still popular 200 years after her death, and why readers can still identify with characters from the long dead world of the 18th century English gentry. Although there have been many changes since that time, its still the greatest challenge in life for men and women to find the partner of their dreams. 38. From Paragraph 2 we can know that the writer _.A. believes Jane Austens works were ahead of their timeB. thinks that everyone should read Jane Austens booksC. is surprised that Jane Austens books are still so famous D. doubts if Jane Austen is still popular all over the world39.According to the passage, Pride and Prejudice _.A. has a sad and unexpected ending B. deals with a serious social problem in a lighthearted way C. is mainly about poor peoples struggles in the 18th centuryD. tells readers that everyone can succeed through hard work 40. According to the passage, Jane Austen remains popular today because_.A. readers enjoy reading love stories about wealthy people B. her works are developed by the love-hate relationship C. readers can always find something new from her novels D. her works deal with problems many of todays readers still face 41.The passage is mainly written to _.A. explain why Jane Austen is still popular todayB. introduce the story of Pride and PrejudiceC. introduce Jane Austens creative writing styleD. explain why Jane Austen was chosen to be on the new 10 noteDHeavier people are more likely(可能) to be killed or seriously injured in car accidents than lighter people, according to new research.But no one yet knows what it is that puts heavier passengers at extra risk.A study carried out in Seattle, Washington, looked at more than 26,000 people who had been involved(卷入) in car crashes, and found that heavier people were at far more risk. People weighing between 100 and 119 kilograms are almost two-and-a- half times as likely to die in a crash as people weighing less than 60 kilograms.And importantly, the researchers found the same result when they looked at body mass index (BMI) a measure that height as well as weight is considered. Someone 1.8 metres tall weighing 126 kilograms would have a BMI of 39, but so would a person 1.5 metres tall weighing 88 kilograms. People are said to be obesity(肥胖) if their BMI is 30 or over.The study found that people with a BMI of 35 to 39 are over twice as likely to die in a crash compared with people with BMIs of about 20. It is not just total weight, but obesity itself thats dangerous.While they do not yet know why this is the case, it is worth finding out, says Charles Mock, a surgeon at the Harborview Injury Prevention and Research Center in Seattle, who led the research team. Crash tests normally use dummies(假人) that represent standard-sized males weighing about 78 kilograms. Recently, smaller crash-test dummies have also been used to represent children inside crashing cars. But larger and heavier dummies are not used.The reasons for the higher injury and death rates are not clear. Mock finds that obese people, with health problems such as high blood pressure or diabetes, could be harder to recover from injury.Richard Kent, an expert at the University of Virginia, thinks the new research has found a legitimate connection between obesity and severe injury or death. Because the research used BMI data, it has not confused(混淆) taller (and therefore heavier than average) people with those who are overweight.42. Why do heavy people get injured or killed more easily in traffic accident? A. Because of the air bag. B. Because of drunk driving C. Because of the safety belt D. The reason is not clearly known yet.43. Who is the most likely to get killed in a car accident?A. A man who weighs 60 kilograms. B. A man who weighs 50 kilograms.C. A man whose BMI is 35. D. A man whose BMI is 20.44.The underlined word “legitimate” in the last paragraph means_. A.困惑的 B.合理的C. 有趣的 D.合法的45.What is the main idea of the passage? A. Obesity and risk in drivingB. Heavy people and light people C. Obesity and safety beltsD. Heavy people and their BMIs四、词汇运用（共l0小题；每小题l分，计l0分）根据句子意思，用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空。在答题卡标有题号 的横线上，写出空缺处所填单词的正确形式。（每空一词）46.Lisas baby is eight months old and she has two now. (tooth)47.

It represents the paper-cutting styles of Southern China. Yangzhou paper-cutting, with a history of more than 2,000 years, made Yangzhou one of the places where paper-cutting first became popular.Yangzhou paper-cutting can be dated back to the Sui Dynasty. In the Sui Dynasty, the people of Yangzhou have the custom of cutting colourful paper or silks to celebrate festivals. In the Tang Dynasty, the paper-making industry was highly developed and it helped speed up the development of the paper-cutting art. In the Qing Dynasty, the people of Yangzhou became interested in wearing embroidered clothing. The embroidered patterns were based on paper-cuts.
