(2018·南阳期终质检)

Little_Charlie_Simpson_was_the_toast_of_Britain last night after raising an astonishing ￡160,000 for Haiti earthquake victims in 24 hours.

Charlie，seven，had hoped to raise ￡500 with a sponsored bike ride around a park yesterday.But as news of his touching effort spread thousands of people donated cash to his appeal.

Mum Leonora said：“What started off as a little cycle round the park with his dad has turned into something a lot bigger than that and we can't believe it.He's done really well.He's worked hard and he's raised a large amount of money.It was great to see him so motivated.I am extremely proud of Charlie.”

At first Charlie hoped to raise ￡500 for Unicef's Haiti appeal by cycling five times round his local park.But things began to take off after he put his appeal on the Just Giving website，which helps raise online charity cash.

Then as his story was picked up by TV stations money began to flood in.Within hours of Charlie climbing off his bike donations had reached ￡53,000—in just 24 hours.

Leonora said her son had been deeply moved by the hardship of the Haitians.She added，“He was really upset by the pictures on TV. He actually burst into tears.He decided to do the cycle ride and he made me do a sponsorship form for him.We sent it out on to the web and it just went everywhere.”

Charlie, from Fulham，West London, said：“I was quite sad when I saw the pictures on TV.”

Unicef's Michael Newsome said，“There's something quite special about a child in the UK reaching out to the children of Haiti.”

文章大意：这是一篇新闻报道。七岁的Charlie想为遭地震的海地募捐500英镑，结果一天之内就募捐到了16万英镑。他是怎么做的呢？

56．By saying“Little Charlie Simpson was the toast of Britain”underlined, the writer means Charlie Simpson ________.

A．proposed a toast to Britain

B．sent good wishes to British

C．had a nice time in Britain

D．was well received in Britain

答案：D　猜测词义题。由后文可知，七岁的Charlie想为遭地震的海地募捐500英镑，结果一天之内就募捐到了16万英镑。所以，人们对他的募捐行为很支持，他已经广为人知了。

57．People can support Charlie by donating money________.

A．on TV B．on the Internet

C．in the bank D．in person

答案：B　细节理解题。由第四段第二句话“But things began to take off after he put his appeal on the Just Giving website，which helps raise online charity cash.”可知，这些现金是在网上捐献的。

58．It can be inferred from the passage that________.

A．Charlie's mother persuaded him to help Haiti victims

B．things went on just as Charlie and his mother planned

C．more donations will be collected for Haiti victims

D．more people will join Charlie in the cycle ride

答案：C　细节理解题。由倒数第三段可知，Charlie是自己想到帮助海地受灾者的，而不是妈妈的说服，所以A项错误；七岁的Charlie想为遭地震的海地募捐500英镑，结果却募捐到了16万英镑，所以该事情的结果出乎他和母亲的预料，所以B项错误；由倒数第四段可知，募捐进行了一天，还会持续下去的，所以C项正确。

59．Which is the passage mainly about?

A．Charlie Simpson, a 7yearold British schoolboy

B．Charlie Simpson raises ￡160, 000 for Haiti appeal in one day

C．Charlie Simpson：Fundraising Allstar on TV

(2018·襄阳3月调测)

When I first arrived in China around a year ago, I wasn't worried about the food or the language barriers. I only had one concern: how am I going to watch soccer? In the UK where I grew up, matches are scheduled for prime time TV viewing. I could always look forward to a lazy Sunday afternoon in the pub watching Manchester United or Liverpool. However, in China, the time difference means that these evening games actually start at 3：45 am.

When the alarm sounded at 3 am it was a struggle to drag myself out of bed.Determined not to miss the action, I got dressed and set off, wearyeyed (双眼困乏的), to find a taxi.When I arrived I was surprised.I wasn't the only midnight soccer fan.The bar was packed with Liverpool fans who were there to support their team.With each Liverpool goal, a huge cheer erupted.Throughout the match a large group of Chinese fans sang songs about their heroes—often in perfect Liverpudlian accents.Other supporters discussed the game over a beer.

Along with the excitement came a sense of community.Only the most dedicated (专注的) soccer followers would sacrifice (牺牲) sleep for a big match.Back home supporting a soccer team is a fashion statement for many.Politicians talk about soccer to appear in touch with common people.But in this small bar in Beijing I'd found a truer type of soccer fan.These fans loved the game so much that they'd watch it whatever the time.

I'll be returning to the UK for Christmas—the time of year spent with family, eating turkey, giving presents, and, of course, watching soccer.But I might just miss the 3 am taxi rides and midnight fans of Beijing.After all, where's the fun in watching soccer at a normal time?

文章大意：一年前，第一次来中国，我一直担心无法看球赛。但是中国球迷的热情和痴迷令我感动。

60．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article?

A.In the UK, the author preferred to watch soccer matches at home with his families.

B.In the UK, big soccer matches are more often broadcast on TV in the evenings than in the mornings.

C.In China, the author usually stayed up all night in order not to miss a soccer game.

D.The bar where the author went was noisy, which the author didn't like.

答案：B　推理判断题。由第一段第三、四两句话“In the UK where I grew up, matches are scheduled for prime time TV viewing. I could always look forward to a lazy Sunday afternoon in the pub watching Manchester United or Liverpool.”可知，A项错在“在家中看”，同时B项正确；由第二段前两句话可知，C项错在“整夜不睡觉”；由第三段第一句话“Along with the excitement came a sense of community.”可知，球迷的吵闹使我激动，同时又让我有了归属感，所以D项错在“作者不喜欢”上。

61．By mentioning the Chinese fans in the bar singing songs in perfect Liverpudlian accents, the author intends to show________.

A.the fans' good knowledge of foreign language

B.the fans' passion and support for their heroes

C.the messy but friendly atmosphere in the bar

D.typical ways that the fans spent time in the bar

答案：B　推理判断题。由第三段第二句话“Only the most dedicated (专注的) soccer followers would sacrifice (牺牲) sleep for a big match.”可知，只有专注的球迷才会做到这一点，所以这是在展示中国球迷的热情和支持。

62．Which fails to show “the sense of community” caused by soccer according to the article?

A.Soccer fans struggling to support their favorite teams at midnight.

B.Soccer fans cheering only for their own national teams.

C.Politicians trying to impress the public by saying that they like soccer.

D.Soccer fans who prefer to watch a match in a bar together with other fans.

答案：B　推理判断题。由第二、三段可知，中国球迷半夜看球，结伴讨论球，政治家为了亲民表示喜欢足球。这都是一种归属感的表现，所以选B项。

63．When the author returns to the UK and watches soccer, he thinks he will________.

A.feel relieved and satisfied to be at home

B.miss his Chinese friends

C.invite his family to watch the games in the pub with him

D.recall the fun of watching games at midnight in China

答案：D　推理判断题。由最后一段最后两句话可知，作者非常怀念在中国半夜看球的快乐。

C

(2018·北京重点中学2月月考)

Many critics worry about violence on television, most out of fear that it stimulates viewers to violent or aggressive acts. Our research, however, indicates that the consequences of experiencing TV's symbolic world of violence may be much more farreaching.

We have found that people who watch a lot of TV see the real world as more dangerous and frightening than those who watch very little. Heavy viewers are less trustful of their fellow citizens, and more fearful of the real world. Since most TV “actionadventure” dramas occur in urban settings, the fear they inspire may contribute to the current flee of the middle class from our cities. The fear may also bring increasing demands for police protection, and election of lawandorder politicians.

While none of us is completely dependent upon television for our view of the world, neither have many of us had the opportunity to observe the reality of police stations, courtrooms, corporate board rooms, or hospital operating rooms. Although critics complain about the fixed characters and plots of TV dramas, many viewers look on them as representative of the real world. Anyone who questions that statement should read the 250,000 letters, most containing requests for medical advice, sent by viewers to “Marcus Welby, M．D.” —a popular TV drama series about a doctor—during the first five years of his practice on TV.

Violence on television leads viewers to regard the real world as more dangerous than it really is, which must also influence the way people behave. When asked, “Can most people be trusted？” the heavy viewers were 35 percent more likely to choose “Can't be too careful.”

Victims, like criminals, must learn their proper roles, and televised violence may perform the teaching function all too well. Instead of worrying only about whether television violence causes individual displays of aggression in the real world, we should also concern about social reality. Passive acceptance of violence in the face of injustice may result from far greater social concern than occasional displays of individual aggression.

We have found that violence on primetime(黄金时段)network TV cultivates overstated (夸大的)assumptions about the threat of danger in the real world. Fear is a universal emotion, and easy to exploit. The overstated sense of risk and insecurity may lead to increasing demands for protection, and to increasing pressure for the use of force by established authority. Instead of threatening the social order, television may have become our chief instrument of social control.

64．Which of the following is NOT among the consequences of watching TV too much?

A. Distrusting people around.

B. Moving into rural areas.

C. Turning to the police for protection.

D. Holding more elections.

答案：D　细节理解题。第二段最后一句“The fear may also bring increasing demands for police protection, and election of lawandorder politicians.” D选项夸大了原文的真实意义。

65．According to the passage, why did “Marcus Welby, M．D.” receive so many letters?

A. Because viewers believed the doctor did exist in the real life.

B. Because certain TV programmes recommended him to viewers.

C. Because he was an experienced doctor and saved many lives.

D. Because the TV appealed to people to pay attention to health.

答案：A　细节理解题。根据第三段第二句“Although critics complain about the fixed characters and plots of TV dramas, many viewers look on them as representative of the real world. Anyone who questions that statement should read the 250,000 letters, most containing requests for medical advice, sent by viewers to ‘Marcus Welby, M．D.'—a popular TV drama series about a doctor—during the first five years of his practice on TV.”判断答案为A。

66．We can infer from the passage that________.

A. people tend to be aggressive or violent after watching TV too much

B. people can learn to protect themselves from dangers by watching TV

C. the occasional displays of individual aggression may threaten the social order

D. watching TV may cause the misuse of authority and disturb the social order

答案：B　推理判断题。根据第四段“Violence on television leads viewers to regard the real world as more dangerous than it really is, which must also influence the way people behave. When asked, ‘Can most people be trusted？' the heavy viewers were 35 percent more likely to choose ‘Can't be too careful.'”分析推理出答案。

(2018·襄阳3月调测)

Two Christmas traditions have come under attack in recent years from environmentalists: Christmas cards and Christmas trees.

Paper cards are seen as wasteful and, for some people, going cardfree is another way of going green. They also argue that in a world of email, Skype, Facebook and Twitter, people are in touch all the time anyway; they no longer need the yearly card that connects them with long lost friends. If you want to send Christmas greetings, there are free ecards, which get the job done with no postage or wasted paper.

However, especially for people who didn't grow up with email, there is something missing from a Christmas email. The first Christmas cards appeared in London in 1843 and were designed by the same man who had introduced the world's first postage stamp three years earlier. His name was Sir Henry Cole.

They rose in popularity throughout the 20th century. Many people sent cards that were sold for charity. The most famous of these are the ones sold for UNICEF. In the UK this year, in the three weeks before Christmas, the post office expects to handle 100 million cards every day. Environmental awareness also means that nowadays many people recycle their cards; this helps raise money to plant more trees, as well as recreating more paper.

When we think of trees at Christmas, there is one that immediately springs (跃入) to mind—the evergreen tree that people decorate with ornaments and place their presents under. The custom dates back almost a thousand years to Germany. Nowadays 33 to 36 million Christmas trees are produced in America and 50 to 60 million in Europe each year. Some trees are sold live with roots and soil so people can plant them later and reuse them next year.

Some people prefer artificial trees as they are reusable and much cheaper than their natural alternative. However, environmentalists point out that they are made from petroleum (石油) products and so have many contamination (污染) issues.

文章大意：最近几年，圣诞节送圣诞贺卡和圣诞树这两项传统受到了环保主义者的批评。

67．What is the main idea of the article?

A.To introduce the history of two typical Christmas traditions.

B.To point out the problems in some traditional ways of celebrating Christmas.

C.To analyze how two Christmas traditions grew in popularity.

D.To explain the debate between environmentalists and traditionalists regarding some Christmas traditions.

答案：D　主旨大意题。由文章大意可知，本文讲述了环保主义者攻击圣诞节的一些习俗不环保以及人们对此的争论。

68．Some people suggest getting rid of paper cards because________.

a. they cannot be recycled

b. they are not environmentally friendly

c. they are mostly sold for charity

d. free ecards have many advantages over them

e.they are not as necessary as they used to be for people to stay connected

A.a, b, d B.a, c, d

C.b, d, e D.b, c, e

答案：C　细节理解题。由第四段倒数第二句话“Environmental awareness also means that nowadays many people recycle their cards”可知，“a.they cannot be recycled”不选；由第四段第二句话“Many people sent cards that were sold for charity.”可知，“c.they are mostly sold for charity”中mostly错误，所以不选。

69．What can we conclude from the article?

A.The first Christmas cards were designed three years earlier than the world's first stamps.

B.This year has seen a dramatic drop in Christmas card sales.

C.Environmentalists advise people to buy cards that are sold for charity to help raise money.

D.Growing environmental awareness is encouraging people to begin to recycle their cards.

答案：D　细节理解题。由第四段倒数第二句话“Environmental awareness also means that nowadays many people recycle their cards”可知，环保意识意味着要循环使用贺卡。

70．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article?

A.Some people prefer to buy live trees that can be reused next year.

B.The custom of decorating Christmas trees first appeared in Britain.

Australia has passed regulations that will enable more international students to further their education in the country.

The new measures were released by the Australian Department of Tertiary Education, Skills, Jobs and Workplace Relations in September and will take effect in mid2018.

As a result, the student visa application process for overseas students has been simplified, and the deposit(押金)required to study in Australia has been reduced. Language requirements for overseas students have also been eased. Also, overseas students receiving a higher education in Australia will be granted a working visa lasting from two to four years after graduation, as long as they meet the basic IELTS requirement.

“This change will definitely make Australia a more attractive destination for Chinese students planning to study overseas，” says Wang Lan, a consultant from Education International Cooperation Group(EIC), a Beijingbased company that provides services to students wishing to study overseas.

However, in the past few years, many of Wang's student clients(客户)could not start studies in Australia because they did not meet the language requirements, visa processing took a long time and deposit regulations were tough. The change in policy is good news for the parents of students wishing to study in Australia, Wang says.

A 22yearold female student surnamed Li, in Beijing, who is planning to do her postgraduate studies in Australia, learned about the policy change several weeks ago.

“According to the previous deposit requirement for my student visa, my family was required to put down 550,000 yuan($86,850). Now we only need to prepare 410,000 yuan. This is a relief for my parents，” Li says.

She also says that the two to four years working visa makes her feel much clearer about her study plans.

“I believe several years of working experience abroad will strengthen my competitiveness when I return to China，” she says.

Gaining a competitive advantage is the major reason for Chinese students to study abroad, according to the report by EIC.

[范文借鉴]

Recently,_a_survey_on_school_buses_has_been_conducted_on_a_website. As can be seen from the pie chart, only 36.13% of the interviewees trust the school buses, while 40.34% of them show their distrust. 23.53% of them are not clear about it. Of those who show their disbelief, 35.29% are afraid of abandoned vehicles being used and 24.37% worry that school buses are often overloaded, which can cause serious traffic accidents. About 21.35% of them worry that the school buses are not equipped with safety equipment like safety belts. Another 18.49% blame drivers for breaking the speed limit.

I think effective measures should be taken to ensure the safety of students. More money should be invested to improve the quality of school buses. Meanwhile, all the school buses should be examined regularly.
