Sally Louisa Tompkins was among the Confederate women who founded small hospitals.Tompkins finally became the only recognized woman officer in the South.1Women serving in the civil War were mostly _.AdoctorsBnursesCsoldiers Dspies2We may conclude that during the Civil War_.Aabout 3 000 women served as medical workersBeven many women doctors were hired in medical dutyCHarriet Tubman must have stolen much information from Jefferson DavisDOnly onethird of soldiers were directly killed by bullets3Which of the following should be the best title for the passage?AWhat Women Did for the American Civil War.BWomen and the American Civil War.CWomen Served as Civil War Nurses Only.DWomen Spies, Doctors, and Nurses in the Civil War.答案与解析：1解析：由第二段可知，妇女在南北战争中主要是护理战士。至于间谍、医生或士兵是一些特殊例子，故应选B项。答案：B2解析：文中第二段第二句提到“因疾病和感染而死去的战士是在战斗中死去的两倍”。答案：D3解析：选项A意为“妇女为了内战所做的事情”，内战是妇女做事情的目的，所以不符合文章内容；选项B的意思是妇女与美国内战，正好代表了文章的主要内容。其他两个选项只是文章的一些细节。答案：BBAdvertising give useful information about which products to buy. But modern advertising does more than give news about products and services, Todays advertisements, or ads, try to get consumers(消费者) to buy certain brands. Writers of advertising are so skillful that they can sometimes persuade a consumer to wear a certain kind of clothing, eat a special kind of cereal, or see a movie. Consumers might never even want a product if they did not see or hear advertisements for it.For example, you probably do not need the newest cereal in the supermarket. There are probably many cereal brands on your kitchen shelves. You may not have space on a shelf for another. But if you see ads about a new cereal that is your extratasty and has a free prize in the box，you may want it.Advertising must get attention. To be effective, it must be exciting, entertaining, or provide some pleasure. The secret of writing good advertising copy is to offer a good idea as well as a product. The idea is what the ad is really selling. One example is an ad that says eating a certain cereal will make a person do well in sports. That cereal brand may sell better if consumers think it offers strength and energy.4What is discussed in this passage?AThe content of modern advertising.BThe skills of modern advertising.CThe results of modern advertising.DThe writing of modern advertising.5According to the passage, a good advertisement should _.Abe both persuasive and effectiveBgive people useful informationCshow people a productDshow people a new idea of a product6From the passage, we know that _.Amodern advertising has less effect on consumersBonce consumers see ads about a new cereal, they are sure to buy itCcereal can make people strongDcereal is a kind of food which is popular among people7What can we infer from the passage?AConsumers can easily be persuaded by advertisements.BConsumers should never be persuaded by advertisements.CIts impossible for consumers to buy a product without advertisements.DConsumers buy products according to their demands rather than the advertisements.答案与解析：4解析：主旨大意题。第一、二段主要写广告撰写者的技巧可能带来的效果，第三段主要写获得这种效果的技巧。所以文章主要讨论skills of modern advertising。答案：B5解析：推理判断题。由第一段第四句Writers of advertising are so skillful that they can sometimes persuade a consumer to .和第三段第二句To be effective, it must be exciting, entertaining, or provide some pleasure.可知，好的广告必须既有说服力又有效果。答案：A6解析：推理判断题。文章第二段谈到有的消费者可能有很多品牌的麦片，以至都没有空间放新品牌的麦片，由此可推断麦片很受人们欢迎。其余选项均表述错误。答案：D7解析：推理判断题。通读全文可知，人们很容易被广告说服去买一些他们原本可能不需要的东西，故选A项。答案：AC(2013辽宁抚顺高二检测)My grandparents believed that you were either honest or you were not. They had a simple saying hanging on their livingroom wall: “Life is like a field of newly fallen snow. Where I choose to walk every step will show.” They didnt have to talk about it; they showed this truth by the way they lived.They understood that honesty is an inner standard for judging your behaviour. Unfortunately，honesty is in short supply today. But it is the real bottom line in every area of society and a discipline we must demand of ourselves.Theres a story told about a surgical(外科的) nurses first day on the medical team at a wellknown hospital. She was responsible for all surgical instruments and materials during an operation. At the end of the operation，the nurse said to the doctor, “Youve only removed 11 sponges(纱布), and we used 12. We need to find the last one.” “I removed them all，” the doctor assured her. “No, you didnt，sir，” insisted the nurse. “Think of the patient.”Smiling, the doctor lifted his foot and showed the nurse the twelfth sponge.So when you know youre right，you cant yield. Dont be afraid of those who might have a better idea or who might even be more intelligent than you are.Selfrespect and a clear awareness of right and wrong are powerful parts of honesty and are the basis for enriching your relationships with others. Honesty means you do what you do because its right and not just fashionable or politically correct. A life of principle，of not easily yielding，will always take you forward. My grandparents taught me that.8From the first two paragraphs，we can infer that _.Athe authors grandparents liked snowBthe authors grandparents didnt like chattingCthe author is worried about the issue of honesty in todays societyDhonesty is the most important standard for judging ones behaviour9The nurse insisted there was still a sponge because _.Ashe saw the doctor hide the twelfth spongeBshe believed she was rightCshe thought the doctor was not responsibleDshe knew the patient well10What does the underlined word “yield” mean in the text?AAdmit. BGive in. CStop. DLook forward.11How does the text mainly develop?ABy providing an example of honesty.BBy making a comparison between honesty and dishonesty.CBy explaining the authors grandparents belief in detail.DBy following the order of importance.答案与解析：8解析：推理判断题。由文章第二段尤其是第二句Unfortunately, honesty is in short supply today可知，作者感到很不幸的是，社会急需诚信。可见，他对当今社会的诚信问题很担心。答案：C9解析：细节理解题。由文章第三、四段可知，当护士发现12块纱布只取出11块时，她坚持自己是对的，本着对病人负责的态度，不向医生屈服。答案：B10解析：词义猜测题。根据全文的例子及下句的Dont be afraid等可知，如果知道自己是对的，那就不要屈服。故选B项。答案：B11解析：篇章结构题。通读全文可知，文章先提出论点，然后通过一个关于手术的故事来论证，最后总结。故选A项。答案：ADA characteristic of American culture that has become almost a tradition is to respect the selfmade man the man who has risen to the top through his own efforts, usually beginning by working with his hands. While a leader in a business or a college professor occupies a higher social position and commands greater respect in the community than a common labourer or even a skilled factory worker, he may take pains to point out that his father started life in America as a farmer or labourer of some sort.This attitude toward manual(体力) labour is now still seen in many aspects of American life. One is invited to dinner at a home that is not only comfortably but even luxuriously(豪华地) furnished and in which there is every evidence of the fact that the family has been able to afford foreign travel, expensive hobbies, and college education for the children; yet the hostess probably will cook the dinner herself, will serve it herself and will wash dishes afterward, furthermore the dinner will not consist merely of something quickly and easily assembled from contents of various cans and a cake or a pie bought at the nearby bakery. On the contrary, the hostess usually takes pride in careful preparation of special dishes. A professional man may talk about washing the car, digging in his flower bed and painting the house. His wife may even help with these things, just as he often helps her with the dishwashing. The son who is away at college may wait_on_table and wash dishes for his living, or during the summer he may work with a construction gang on a highway in order to pay for his education.12From Paragraph 1, we can know that in America _.Apeople tend to have a high opinion of the selfmade manBpeople can always rise to the top through their own effortsCcollege professors win great respect from common workersDpeople feel painful to mention their fathers as labourers13According to the passage, the hostess cooks dinner herself mainly because _.Aservants in America are hard to getBshe takes pride in what she can do herselfCshe can hardly afford servantsDit is easy to prepare a meal with canned food14The underlined expression “wait on table” in the second paragraph means “_”Awork in a furniture shopBkeep accounts for a barCwait to lay the tableDserve customers in a restaurant15Which of the following may be the best title of the passage?AA Respectable Selfmade Family.BAmerican Attitude toward Manual Labour.CCharacteristics of American Culture.DThe Development of Manual Labour.答案与解析：本文主要讲述美国人对手工劳动的态度。12解析：细节理解题。由文章第一段第一句可知答案。答案：A13解析：细节理解题。由文章第二段倒数第四句可知答案。答案：B14解析：词义猜测题。根据下文的wash dishes for his living可推测出wait on table的意思是“在饭店当服务员”。答案：D15解析：标题归纳题。综观全文可知B项为最佳标题。答案：B第二节：(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Green: More Than Just a ColorGreen is an important color in nature.

Sometimes, it describes something that is not yet ripe or finished._17_ A person with a green thumb seems to have a magic touch that makes plants grow quickly and well. You might say that the woman next door has a green thumb if her garden continues to grow long after your plants have died.The Green Revolution is the name given some years ago to the development of new kinds of rice and other grains. _18_ The Green Revolution was the result of hard work by agricultural scientists who had green thumbs._19_ The greeneyed monster is not frightening creature from outer space.

I stepped into a tiny icecream shop to _21_ with a chocolate icecream. It was a very _22_ store with little round tables and chairs.As I entered, I found a very old woman bent _23_ a table near the door. Her _24_ was so badly bent by some sadness that her face nearly _25_ the table top. I sat down facing her a couple of _26_ away.“Poor woman，” I thought. “What does she get _27_ life? Why does God let people live so long past their youth？”As I thought, another aged lady entered the shop and sat down with her. Soon the two of them were _28_ childhood days. They talked of how little the shop had changed in 70 years. In minutes, the two of them were shaking with laughter.I looked _29_ at the first woman, then in the _30_ on a nearby wall, catching a picture of myself. I was _31_ a dirty shirt. She was well dressed in white, her _32_ shining with gold rings. I was _33_. She was laughing, smiling. I was putting the _34_ of my life together. She had millions of _35_ memories to recall. I sat alone. She was _36_ the day with a good friend. I was _37_ worried about getting old. She was old, but it wasnt _38_ her.As I left the shop, I _39_ my foolish question about God letting people live past their youth. _40_， that woman was more alive, more sensitive to life, than I was. Age has not been her spirit.21A.warm up Bcool offCfreeze myself Denjoy myself22A.old BmodernCpretty Dugly23A.under BbelowCover Dabove24A.head BchestCneck Dback25A.connected BtouchedChit Djoined26A.tables BmilesCkilometers Dinches27A.for BoffCaway from Dout of28A.speaking Btalking aboutCdiscussing Ddebating29A.sadly BhappilyCup Dagain30A.newspaper BwindowCmirror DTV31A.dressing BwearingCputting on Dhaving on32A.hands BneckCarms Dhead33A.happy BsurprisedCpoor Dsad34A.periods BpiecesCpoints Dmasses35A.unhappy BoldCwonderful Dfresh36A.sharing BspendingCkilling Dsparing37A.really BmostlyCpublicly Dsecretly38A.pleasing BhurtingCleaving Dpunishing39A.realized BwonderedCgave up Dthought of40A.When BHowCWhy DWhether答案与解析21解析：前面讲到天气很热，到冰淇淋店里去吃一块冰淇淋是为了凉快一下。答案：B22解析：根据后面little round tables and chairs以及后面“两位老太太进去”这些信息，这家店不可能是现代的、漂亮的或很难看的店。答案：A23解析：below和under显然不妥，above指“在上方”一般不指垂直的上方。bend over sth.指垂直的上方，是一个常见的搭配，指弯腰俯身在上。答案：C24解析：句中指老太太的背弯得厉害。答案：D25解析：前面讲到老太太的背弯得很厉害，可见这里指她的脸差点碰到桌面上。答案：B26解析：这个故事发生在一个冰淇淋小店里，所以用miles, kilometers, inches来表示两人之间的距离显然不妥，指的是相隔几张桌子的距离。答案：A27解析：本句是作者可怜那位老太太而发出的感叹：“她的生活中能得到什么乐趣呢？”根据get这一动词，我们选D。get sth. out of sth.是一个常用搭配。答案：D28解析：根据上下文，不难看出，这里指两位老太太很快就谈论起她们童年的日子了。discuss指正式讨论；speak后应该加of才能表示“谈及”；而debate指辩论。答案：B29解析：根据上文，作者看过一次第一个老太太，这里指作者又一次看她，而且两次有不同的感觉。答案：D30解析：根据句中的“on the wall”和“catching a picture of myself”这些信息，我们可以判断出不可能是“窗子”。因为墙上的窗子要用介词in。也不是newspaper和TV，因为自己的像不可能出现在这些东西里。答案：C31解析：wear是“穿着”；dress后应接sb.; put on表示动作，“穿上”；have on也表示“穿着”，但不能用进行时。本句的意思是“我穿着一件旧衬衫”。答案：B32解析：根据后面shining with gold rings来判断，金戒指必定是戴在手上的。答案：A33解析：作者开头可怜老太太，经过观察对比，觉得自己才可怜。答案：D34解析：这里指的是作者在跟那个老太太对比时把自己生活中的一件件事情联系起来。答案：B35解析：这里指老太太对过去的回忆。从上文可以看出，老太太的回忆应该是美好的。答案：C36解析：本题看起来四个选项都可以，但仔细分析一下，只有A是正确的。但是sharing the day是分享快乐的一天，而不是一般的度过、消磨时间的意思。答案：A37解析：看着别人，想起自己，作者显然暗暗担心自己的衰老。答案：D38解析：作者在上文把自己和那位老太太作了对比，觉得自己不如那位老太太，自己老了的处境很难设想，而逝去的年岁并没有伤害到那位老太太。答案：B39解析：这里指离开小店时，作者想起了自己的一个愚蠢的问题。realize, give up 和wonder都没有“想起”这一意思。答案：D40解析：四个选项中只有why可作为感叹句，when, whether, how都不能作感叹词，而句中显然需要一个感叹词，而不是连词，文后面有逗号，故选C。相当于“啊”的意思，其余几个词显然不妥。答案：C第二节(共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分)阅读下列材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(不多于3个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。Tom：Have you heard the local newspaper The Times is closing down in three months time?Mary：Then thats good news. That newspaper is terrible. I wont miss it.Tom: _41_ do you mean? The Times is the best newspaper in the city .If that _42_(close) down, well only have The Pioneer and the City Journal, which is too bad. Mary: You only like The Times _43_ it takes up to 20 pages every day with sports. The City Journal is a great paper. And you dont like it because it devotes less than 5 pages every day _44_ baseball results.Tom: This is a baseball city. Weve got a great team. Why shouldnt we read about it? Where are we going to get the results now?Mary: I think a newspaper needs to meet all the _45_(need) of its readers, not just that of those _46_ like sports.Tom: Then what about the Job Section in The Times? That was one of the most _47_(use) parts of it. Every business, every store in the city knows if they want to get someone _48_(work) for them, they have to put some ads in The Times. How are all these people going to get work now? This will _49_( absolute) destroy the local economy.Mary: Destroy the local economy, will it? I admit the Job Section was pretty good in The Times，_50_either one of the other two newspapers will just get the ads instead.
