信丰中学2020届高三下学期英语学科强化训练（一）ATeary Joe was a boy with a special ability：he could make himself cry in less than a second. If he disliked something，or things became difficult，Teary Joe would not hesitate to put on a pitiful face and set great big tears running down his cheeks. In this way he managed to get practically everything he wanted，because no one could resist the pity inspired by his tearful little face.But one day，Teary Joe met Pipo. Pipo was asking people in the street for some change，in return for him helping them in any way he could. Pipo was very poor；he had no home and no family，so he made a living however he could .Even so，Pipo always had the biggest smiles on his face.Joe took to Pipo，so he decided to help him out in making some money. He went over next to Pipo，took off his hat，put it face-up on the ground，and started crying with the most pitiful of expressions. In a few minutes，Joes hat was full of coins and sweets，but when Joe offered all this to Pipo，Pipo declined.“I prefer deserving what I receive，” answered Pipo with his usual smile，“Its much more fun making an effort to get things. Maybe I havent gotten everything Ive wanted，but Ive done a load of interesting things.” Teary Joe didnt answer；he just walked sadly away. Joe had got everything he wanted，but hed done practically nothing of interest the whole day.That evening，having returned home，Joe requested a delicious cake for his supper. When his mother said no，Joe tried to cry but，remembering Pipo and how joyful he was，he tried to get the cake in some other way. Joe spent the whole evening helping his mother to water the plants and organize the library books.In the end there was no cake. But that wasnt so bad，because Joe discovered it had been much more fun doing all those things that evening rather than just sitting crying to get a piece of cake that，in the end，wouldnt have been worth it.1According to the passage，Teary Joe .Arelied on others sympathy before Bwas joyful in his lifeChated working hard Dwas a naughty boy2Teary Joe sadly walked away because he .Aconsidered that Pipo was very poor Brealized he shouldnt change his life styleCdidnt get delicious cake for supper Dgot everything he wanted without delight3Joes attitude towards Pipos getting things by making efforts was .Aridiculous Bfaulty Cdoubtful Dadmirable4What can be inferred about Teary Joe?AHe doesnt have home and is poor.

This is particularly true with anyone over thirty-five，especially if they have been heavy smokers. Likewise，young adults who have been very inactive should proceed slowly and with caution. A physical evaluation from a physician is recommended，preferably one that includes an exercise stress test. While a person is exercising，a stress test detects cardiovascular(心血管的) problems that might not show up when the body is at rest. This is done by monitoring blood pressure，pulse rate，oxygen consumption，and the hearts electrical activity while exercising.Whatever exercise program is selected，it is important to start with warm-up periods. These should include stretching exercises，jumping jacks，or active walking. The idea is to increase heart rate and circulation slowly without placing a sudden strain on the heart or the muscles that are starting to work.The next phase in developing an exercise program is to determine the amount of exercise that is enough to condition the muscles and cardiovascular system without excessively exhausting the body.This involves taking ones pulse and finding ones target zone. This target zone，or safetraining pulse rate，is established by subtracting ones age from 220 and then taking 60 percent to 80 percent of that total.If you are just starting to exercise,60 percent is recommended；80 percent is recommended if you are already in good condition.5Who is the intended reader of the passage?AA social worker.

DAnyone who wants to take up exercise.6What is NOT mentioned as a part of a stress test in Paragraph 1?AWatching the hearts electrical activity.

Little do these students realize that，in doing so，they are throwing good money away. It may sound unbelievable but textbooks，in some cases，actually cost as much as，if not more than college fees.Many people think that college bookstores are the most convenient source for textbooks. Titles are usually kept and students may purchase new textbooks or choose to buy secondhand books and save money. But the money saved by purchasing secondhand textbooks from college bookstores is small compared to the amount they could save by shopping online.More and more online booksellers have begun selling textbooks at heavily discounted prices. Online secondhand bookstores are another source for college books as they keep a large number of textbooks，which means sizable savings for students. Students should avoid purchasing their textbooks at the first store that they surf online since there are so many “unreal” booksellers on the Net. Price isnt the only factor to consider when making an online purchase. Students should also consider shopping costs and delivery time when making their decision.Online auctions(拍卖) are another option for students seeking a bargain. This option，however，has its pros and cons. A plus is that students can get incredibly cheap books. One problem is that while online bookstores have a system in place that ensure you receive your order within a reasonable amount of time，with an auction purchase，however，you must depend on the auction sellers timetable.One way that students can really save is by getting books for free. Project Gutenberg is one resource that English majors will find invaluable. Here students can legally download a huge collection of classic novels. In the past students needing help with their studies would often have to spend a lot of money buying expensive study guides. Today that is no longer the case. Cashstrapped students can now visit the website SparkNotes for free downloadable study guides as well as classics.9Which of the following is the best title of this passage?ALearning to Save on Textbooks BWhy Buy TextbooksCOnline Shopping DTips for Buying Secondhand Textbooks10Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a source to obtain textbooks?ACollege bookstores.

If you are a diving enthusiast，youll definitely love spending time in Playa La Audiencia since its waters are shallow，calm and filledwith rocks covered with corals.Playa Brujas，MazatlanPlaya Brujas is probably one of the best surfing spots in Mazatlan. Playa Brujas is located 20 minutes drive from the heart of Mazatlan and its a popular spot among local surfers.
