1.【题文】Every Wednesday, I go to Cantata Adult Life Services, a local retirement community in Brookfield, Illinois, US, with my classmates to do community service. After my very first visit to Cantata, my life changed forever. That may sound a bit dramatic, but volunteering with the elderly has changed my views on life. Our visits last about an hour, and we bring 25-30 students every time. We play board games and cards with the residents while were there. You can watch all the movies and TV shows you want about “life back then”, but nothing compares to talking to the people who were actually there. Just hearing their stories has touched me in a way I never thought possible. Whether it was talking to 98-year-old “Hurricane Hilda” about her glory days as a roller skater or chatting with Lou about the times she danced with a famous actor, I was completely attracted by every single memory the residents wanted to share with me. Even the residents who dont have amazing memories make the experience satisfying . I remember visiting Mrs Robinson. She couldnt recall much about her past, but she told me shed never forget how kind I was just to listen to her “rambling (漫谈)”. It made me realize that its the little things that make life worth living. Thats something I wont forget anytime soon. If theres one thing Ive realized in my three years of visiting Cantata, its that presence just being there means more than anything to many of the residents. And despite how busy our lives are, theres always time to make someones day. For me, it feels great to be a source of happiness, a smile on a bad day or a listening ear for old memories. And at the end of the day, thats all that matters.Its easy to feel like you dont have anything in common with the elderly especially when youre a teenager. But thats not true at all. I hate to be overly clichd (陈词滥调的) here, but age really is just a number. As young adults, its important for us to realize this sooner rather than later. We can learn a lot from the elderly, and they can often benefit from teenagers too. What do the volunteers do according to the passage? A. They share everything with the residents. B. They play board games and cards with the residents. C. They watch the residents play games. D. They buy gifts for the residents. According to the writer, what is the most important thing that volunteers can do for the elderly? A. Playing with them. B. Benefiting from them. C. Helping them. D. Being there with them. What does the writer want to tell us by writing this passage ? A. We dont have anything in common with the elderly. B. Age is just a number. C. It is important to help the elderly. D. Young adults and the elderly can benefit from each other.【答案】BDD【解析】【试源】2015届山东省青岛市高三统一质量检测【结束】2.【题文】The new high-speed railway line between Urumqi, capital of the Xinjiang Uygur self-governing region, and Lanzhou, capital of Gansu province, has cut train travel time by half to less than 12 hours. The dramatic improvement will benefit many families planning reunions for Spring Festival. For the first time, I feel home is not that far away after all, said Liang Shaofu as he boarded a high-speed train in Urumqi with six members of his family. The 35-year-old left Lanzhou to set up a dry fruit business in Xinjiang eight years ago, and he has now settled in Urumqi. The 1,776-km line, which passes through Qinghai province and is the countrys first high-speed railway to be built in a high-altitude region, came into service on Dec 26. We normally drive home for Spring Festival to avoid the difficulties of buying seven train tickets for the whole family during the peak season, Liang said. Driving can be very tiring and dangerous sometimes, so one year we even decided not to go back to Lanzhou simply to avoid the trip. More than 600,000 passengers traveled on the line during its first month, and the Urumqi Railway Bureau said the introduction of high-speed services will ease transport pressure during the Spring Festival peak season. The existing usual railway line could no longer support Xinjiangs development. All passenger trains will gradually shift to the new link, leaving the old one to be used for goods. As a result, Xinjiangs annual goods ability could reach 200 million metric tons from the current 70 million. The line passes through areas that experience high winds, and it also crosses parts of the deserted Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and the bone-dry sands of the Gobi Desert. The project could help China to promote its high-speed railway technology abroad, said Ma Xizhang, director of the Lanzhou-Xinjiang railway projects management department in Xinjiang. . How long did it take to go from Urumqi to Lanzhou by the usual train before? A. about 12 hours. B. About 6 hours. C. About 18 hours. D. About 24 hours. Whats the main advantage of the new high-speed railway?A. It takes more time to go to Urumqi to Lanzhou.B. It will be more convenient for people all over the country to Xinjiang.C. All the people in Lanzhou can return home on festivals.D. It helps to improve Xinjiangs development. . From the passage we can learn _. A. Xinjiangs annual goods ability can increase nearly four timesB. the new railway technology may help more railway lines to be built abroadC. the high-speed railway lines cant be built across the bone-dry sandsD. the old railway lines can only carry goods now. Which of the following is true according to the passage? A. The new high-speed railway line is good for all people to go home. B. The new high-speed railway line benefits businessmen to carry goods.C. Taking the new train is safer than driving home from Urumqi to Lanzhou.D. Businessmen seldom went home for Spring Festival before.【答案】DDBC【解析】【试源】2015届山东省青岛市高三统一质量检测【结束】3.【题文】What are American high schools like? Well, Im happy to tell you what I know. When I started school here, it had already been a week since the school opened. At this school, freshmen usually go on a trip for about three days at the beginning of school. Unfortunately I missed that wonderful trip, which would have been the best time to get to know my classmates. I was really sad. I wished Id known about it earlier. Despite the disappointment, however, I gradually adapted to my new life and school. There is a space in the basement of the teaching building where students chat and meet each other. As we do not always have the same classrooms and classmates, the school wants us to get to know each other there. Students usually come to school early, sit in that space and have fun. Around the space, there are many lockers for students to leave their books in, so that students do not have to carry a heavy schoolbag everywhere. It really surprises me that we have almost no textbooks. We only have textbooks for World History and Algebra 2 and they are big and heavy, like bricks. For other classes, we only need binders (活页夹) with paper in them. Without textbooks, students learn things freely and actively. For example, my humanities teacher just teaches us what is in her mind at the time. We never know what we will learn. Another difference between American schools and Chinese schools is that American schools care about students morality more than their academic studies. For example, if you do not finish your homework, you will just be asked to do it later, but if you cheat or lie, you will get a warning or even be kicked out. I think that most students here are good at schoolwork as well, but compared to Chinese students, they can make learning a more joyful experience. I think we should take the good points from our two different kinds of education to perfect our approach to studying. What was the writer sad for?A. He was late for school.B. He missed the trip at the beginning of school.C. He didnt know anyone.D. American students looked down upon him. Why do students go to the basement of the teaching building? A. To attend class. B. To share a classroom. C. To have fun. D. To meet teachers. How do teachers in the US teach the students? A. However they want to. B. They use bricks. C. Some use textbooks; some teach freely. D. They always teach as required. . According to the passage, in American high schools, _.A. you are likely to be kicked out if you cheatB. youll be punished if you do not finish your homeworkC. students are better at school work than Chinese studentsD. students care much about the grades they get【答案】BCCA【解析】【试源】2015届山东省青岛市高三统一质量检测【结束】4.【题文】Zheng Pengyu: Interest is the best teacher. Classrooms that werent fixed could give students the chance to explore their interests. At the same time, they would be able to learn on their own because they would have to make their own decisions. All in all, the new system would be a good chance to inspire students passion for studying. Sun Yao: Despite its benefits, Im worried about whether the new system would work. Going to different classrooms would take up a big part of our break time and we would have less time to relax after class. Also, not all schools could offer so many diversified classes. Shi Zhenghan: I support students learning in different classes. It would solve the problem of some students thinking the classes are too easy while some think they are too difficult. Teachers could also teach more effectively. Whats more, friendships built while in different classes might be a pleasant surprise. Zhou Qingqing: In my opinion, studying in different classrooms might affect students psychological (心理的) development. They might find it difficult to develop deep and strong friendships with other students if they had to change classrooms constantly. They would also lose their sense of belonging to a certain class. Hu Qile: I applaud the idea. It would help teachers set up special teaching plans for different classes. For students, making choices by themselves could encourage them to be responsible. Changing classrooms could also help relive the boredom of doing the same dull routine (惯例) every day. Wang Xiaoqian: The new system might help with students individual development, but I still prefer the current system. Studying in one fixed classroom, students with different academic levels can help each other. Spending your senior middle school years with the same classmates is an unforgettable experience. . According to Sun Yao, which of the following sentences is TRUE?A. The new system will work if great measures are taken.B. All the schools cant afford so many diversified classes.C. Students will have more time to relax.D. He supports the system because of its benefits. Among the following people, who prefers the new system?A. Sun Yao B. Hu Qile C. Zhou QingqingD. Wang Xiaoqian. What is the passage about?A. Schools should offer diversified classes to students.B. Students find it difficult to develop friendship.C. Different opinions about changing classroom.D. Changing classroom can help with students individual development. Which of the following can best replace the word “applaud” in paragraph 5?A. hate B. oppose C. favorD. benefit【答案】BBCC【解析】【试源】2015届山东省青岛市高三统一质量检测【结束】5.【题文】Some people make you feel comfortable when they are around.
