It was on this day that the great silver spaceship carrying Professor Hugo’s Interplanetary Zoo settled down for its annual six-hour visit to the Chicago area.‎ Before daybreak the crowds would form, long lines of children and adults, each one grasping their dollar, and waiting with excitement to see what strange creatures the Professor would bring this year. In the past they had sometimes been treated to three-legged creatures from Venus, or tall, thin men from Mars, or even snakelike horrors from somewhere more distant. This year, as the great ship settled slowly in the huge parking area, they watched with awe as the sides slowly slid up to reveal the familiar barred cages.‎ In them were some wild race of nightmare – small, horse-like animals that moved with quick motions and constantly made high-pitched sounds. The citizens of Earth pushed around as Professor Hugo’s crew quickly collected the waiting dollars. The good Professor called into his microphone, “People of Earth, this year you see a real treat for your single dollar – the little-known horse-spider people of Kaan – across a million miles of space brought at great expense.”‎ The crowds slowly filed by, at once horrified and fascinated by these strange creatures that looked like horse but ran up the walls of their cages like spiders. “This is certainly worth a dollar!” one man remarked, hurrying away.‎ As the ship rose from the ground the Earth people agreed that this had been the very best zoo yet…‎ Some two months and three planets later, the silver ship of Professor Hugo settled at last onto the familiar planet of Kaan, and the horse-spider creatures filed quickly out of their cages. In one home, the she-creature was happy to see the return of her mate and offspring. “It was a long time you were gone. Was it good?”‎ The he-creature nodded. “The little one enjoyed it especially. We visited eight worlds and saw many things.”‎ ‎ “On the place called Earth it was the best. The creatures there wear garments over their skins, and they walk on two legs.” the little one smiled.‎ ‎“But isn’t it dangerous?” asked the she-creature.‎ ‎“No,” her mate answered. “There are bars to protect us from them. We remain right in the ship. Next time you must come with us. It is well worth the nineteen commocs it costs.”‎ And the little one nodded. “It was the very best Zoo ever…”‎ ‎21. Which of the following about Professor Hugo’s zoo is true?‎ ‎ A. The animals in the zoo were dangerous.‎ ‎ B. The horse-spider people thought the Earth people were the animals in the zoo.‎ ‎ C. Professor Hugo forced the horse-spider people to travel to Earth.‎ ‎ D. The zoo is open to protect animals with special features.‎ ‎22. What can be inferred about the people on Earth from the passage?‎ ‎ A. They were able to talk to the horse-spider people.‎ ‎ B. They knew the horse-spider people were dangerous and cruel.‎ ‎ C. They were afraid of the horse-spider people.‎ ‎ D. They were cheated by those horse-spider people.‎ ‎23. What does “file by” in Paragraph 4 mean?‎ ‎ A. Walk by. B. Run away. C. Hurry in. D. Stand by.‎ ‎24. Where does this text probably come from?‎ ‎ A. Science fiction. B. Children’s literature.‎ ‎ C. A science report. D. An advertisement.‎ B A Look Inside a Thief’s Mind ‎1. Of course I look familiar. I was here just last week cleaning your carpets, painting your shutters, or delivering your new refrigerator. ‎ ‎2. Hey, thanks for letting me use the bathroom when I was working in your yard last week. While I was in your home, I unlatched the back window to make my return a little easier.‎ ‎3. To you, leaving that window open just a crack during the day is a way to let in a little fresh air. To me, it’s an invitation which I am more than happy to accept.‎ ‎4. If it snows while you’re out of town, get a neighbor to create car and foot tracks into the house, or it will be a dead giveaway. By the way, loud dogs and nosy neighbors are the two things I hate most. ‎ ‎5. It’s raining, you’re fumbling with your umbrella, and you forget to lock your door --- understandable. But understand this: I don’t take a day off because of bad weather. ‎ ‎6. Do you really think I won’t look in your sock drawer? I always check dresser drawers, the bedside table, and the medicine cabinet. Here’s a helpful hint: I almost never go into kids’ rooms. ‎ ‎7. You’re right: I won’t have enough time to break into that safe where you keep your valuables. But if it’s not fastened, I’ll take it with me. ‎ ‎8. Avoid announcing your vacation on your Facebook page. It’s easier than you think to look up your address.‎ ‎25. Money and valuables might be the safest if kept in your______.‎ A. kids’ room B. sock drawer C. medicine cabinet D. safe ‎26. We can draw a conclusion from the text that______.‎ A. Thieves seldom steal in bad weather B. if you do housework yourself, you’ll stay away from thieves C. you yourself are sometimes to blame for a theft D. you can always count on your neighbors when you are out ‎27. The main purpose of the article is to _____.‎ A. summarize when thieves steal most frequently B. encourage people to spend money on home security systems C. explain why thieves take up stealing D. teach people how to protect their homes C We might not be alone in the universe. Actually, it may be confirmed as a very crowded place by new computer models developed to help identify habitable planets.‎ Estimates of places where life can exist have been based on the possibility of them having surface water. But software recently developed by the Aberdeen University allows researchers to identify planets with underground water kept liquid by heat from planets.‎ Water is fundamental for life and planets too close to the sun lose water to the atmosphere through evaporation. On the other hand, planets located in distant reaches from their star have their surface water locked away as ice.‎ ‎2015-10-12 高三英月10 第7页 共 5 页 Sean McMahon, who is carrying out the work, explained: "Traditionally people have said that if a planet is in this Goldilocks zone—not too hot and not too cold—then it can have liquid water on its surface and be habitable."‎ But this concept might change when considering that planets can receive two sources of heat—heat direct from the star and heat generated deep inside the planet.‎ It is easy to observe it in our own planet. As you go down through the crust of the Earth, the temperature gets higher and higher. Even when the surface is frozen, water can exist below ground.‎ There could be immense quantities of water in fact—full of primitive life.‎ Professor John Parnell, also from Aberdeen University said: "There is a significant habitat for microorganisms below the surface of the Earth, extending down several kilometers".‎ ‎"And some believe that the majority of life on Earth could even reside in this deep biosphere."‎ So the Aberdeen team are developing models to predict which distant planets might harbor underground reservoirs of liquid water with the possibility of alien life.‎ ‎28.What is considered as the symbol of life existence traditionally? ‎ A. Solid water on its surface. B. Solid water below ground.‎ C. Liquid water below ground. D. Liquid water on its surface.‎ 29. Why did John Parnell mention the fact about Earth?‎ A. To prove that there is majority of life on Earth.‎ B. To prove that life may also exist in other planets.‎ C. To prove that there is primitive life down through Earth.‎ D. To prove that there is a habitat for microorganisms below Earth.‎ 30. What theory is the Aberdeen team’s study based on?‎ A. Planets can lose water through evaporation.‎ B. Planets can receive heat direct from the star. ‎ C. Planets can have their surface water locked away as ice.‎ D. Planets can receive heat generated deep inside the planet.‎ 31. What can we know about the computer models? ‎ A. They will help identify planets where there is life. ‎ B. They will help researchers find Goldilocks zones.‎ C. They have helped find some significant discoveries. ‎ D. They have already located some habitats for life.‎ D A report brought back by most visitors to the US is how friendly, polite, and helpful most Americans were to them. To be fair, this observation is also frequently made of Canada and Canadians, and should best be considered North American. There are, of course, exceptions. Small-minded officials, rude waiters, and ill-mannered taxi drivers are hardly unknown in the US. Yet it is an observation made so frequently that it deserves comment.‎ For a long period of time and in many parts of the country, a traveler was a welcome break in an otherwise dull existence. Dullness and loneliness were common problems of the families who generally lived distant from one another. Strangers and travelers were welcome sources of distraction, and brought news of the outside world．‎ The tough realities of the border also shaped this tradition of hospitality. Someone traveling alone, if hungry, injured, or ill, often had nowhere to turn except to the nearest settler agent. It was not a matter of choice for the traveler or merely a charitable impulse on the part of the settlers. It reflected the hardship of daily life: if you didn't take in the stranger and take care of him, there was no one else who would. And someday, remember, you might be in the same situation．‎ Today there are many charitable organizations which specialize in helping the exhausted traveler. Yet, the old tradition of hospitality to strangers is still very strong in the US, especially in the smaller cities and towns away from the busy tourist routes. "I was just traveling through, got talking with this American, and pretty soon he invited me home for dinner-amazing." Such observations reported by visitors to the US are not uncommon, but are not always understood properly. The casual friendliness of many Americans should be interpreted neither as superficial）nor as artificial, but as the result of a historically developed cultural tradition.‎ As is true of any developed society, in America a complex set of cultural signals and customs is the basis of all social interrelationships. And, of course, speaking a language does not necessarily mean that someone understands social and cultural patterns. Visitors who fail to "translate" cultural meanings properly often draw wrong conclusions. For example when an American uses the word "friend", the cultural meanings of the word may be quite different from those it has in the visitor's language and culture. It takes more than a brief encounter on a bus to tell polite customs from individual interest. Yet, being friendly is a virtue that many Americans value highly and expect from both neighbors and strangers.‎ ‎32．In the eyes of visitors from the outside world, ________．‎ ‎ A．rude taxi drivers are rarely seen in the US ‎ B．small-minded officials deserve a serious comment ‎ C．Canadians are not so friendly as their neighbors ‎ D．most Americans are ready to offer help ‎33．It could be inferred from the last paragraph that _______．‎ ‎ A．culture has an influence over social inter-relationship ‎ B．polite customs and individual interest are inter-related ‎ C．various virtues shows themselves only among friends ‎ D．social inter-relationships equal the complex set of cultural customs ‎34．Families in border settlements used to entertain strangers _______．‎ ‎ A．to improve their hard life B．in view of their long-distance travel ‎ C．to add some flavor to their own daily life D．out of a charitable impulse ‎35．The tradition of hospitality to strangers _______．‎ ‎ A．tends to be superficial and artificial ‎ ‎ B．is generally well kept up in the United States ‎ C．is always understood properly ‎ ‎ D．has something to do with the busy tourist route 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。‎ Critical Reading Critical reading applies to non-fiction writing in which the author puts forth a position or seeks to make a statement. Critical reading is active reading. 36 . Here are the things you should do to be a critical reader.‎ · Consider the context of what is written. ‎ ‎2015-10-12 高三英月10 第7页 共 5 页 You may be reading something that was written by an author from a different cultural context than yours. Or, you may be reading something written some time ago in a different time context than yours. 37 .‎ · Question opinions made by the author. ‎ Don't accept what is written at face value. 38 . Look for facts, examples, and statistics that provide support. Also, look to see if the author has involved the work of authorities.‎ · ‎ 39 . ‎ Assumptions are whatever the author must believe is true in order to propose opinions. However, in many cases, you must read carefully in order to identify any indirect assumption. Once you identify an assumption, you must decide whether or not the assumption is valid.‎ · Evaluate the sources the author uses. ‎ In doing this, be certain that the sources are credible as well as relevant. 40 . For example, studies done by Einstein in the early 20th century may not be appropriate if the writer is discussing the current state of knowledge in physics.‎ A. Analyze assumptions made by the author B. What is written may very well reflect the author’s position C. Before accepting it, be certain that the author provides abundant support for any view made D. Look to see that what is written is consistent with what others have written about the subject E. It involves questioning, evaluating and forming your own ideas about what the author is saying F. Moreover, if the author is writing about a subject in its current state, be sure that the sources are current G. In either case, you must take into account any differences between your values and attitudes and the author’s ‎ ‎ ‎36. 37. 38. 39. 40. ‎ 语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每题1. 5分，满分30分）‎ ‎    阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A, B, C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。‎ After graduation from college, I started to sell.

Money was tight and he became extremely angry when the child tried to decorate a box 63 (put) it under the Christmas tree. Nevertheless, the little girl brought the gift to her father the next morning, 64 (say), “This is for you, Daddy.” The man was embarrassed by his earlier overreaction, but his anger flared again when he found out the box was empty. He yelled 65 her, stating, "Don't you know there is supposed to be something inside a gift box?” The little girl looked up at him with tears in her eyes and 66 (cry), "Oh, Daddy, it's not empty at all.

Do people use their balconies where you grew up? ‎ M: Yeah, in Puerto Rico, if someone has a balcony, they use it. My sisters and I were always on ours.‎ W: You used to see smokers on balconies a lot. But now, it's illegal to. Smoke outside of most offices and apartment buildings. ‎ M: Well, we should take advantage of the fresh air, then!‎ W: You know what? You're right, instead of going out tonight, let's cook here and have dinner on the balcony. (7)‎ Text 7‎ M" Which tests are required by American universities?‎ W: Most universities require the SAT. It's an exam designed to see if you're prepared for college. The idea is that if all students take the same test, then schools can compare them to each other.

They're very competitive and want students with high scores. But there are other colleges that value different factors.‎ M: Do foreign students take special tests?‎ W: Yes. Foreign students also have to take the TOEFL. It's a language test designed to see if you know enough English to succeed in an American school.‎ M: Are there classes to help prepare for these tests?‎ W: Of course. But they're expensive.

But those recommendations are just suggested minimums.‎ W: How do you fit that many vegetables into your diet?‎ M: It's not that hard. I try to eat two or three servings at every meal. For breakfast, I have an egg with tomatoes and mushrooms. (11) Or, I mix a couple of vegetables with some mangoes or pineapples.‎ W: That sounds strange. ‎ M: No, it's actually quite good. For lunch, I have a big salad with lettuce, carrots, and cucumbers. And then for dinner, I usually have some kind of meat, a small salad, and some cooked green vegetables.‎ W: It sounds difficult to follow.

When I eat that many vegetables every day, I don't really have time to eat much else.‎ Text 9‎ M: Do you like this house?‎ W: It's almost perfect. It has three bedrooms and two bathrooms just like we wanted. Amy and Alison can have the room next to ours, and Joey can have his own room. (13)‎ M: Yes. And the backyard is huge. Our dog will have lots of room to run around. Also, there is a very large dining room where we can host dinners for our families.‎ W: Yes. I love the dining .room. The light in there is amazing.

(15)‎ M: What do you mean? This is a wonderful neighborhood.‎ W: No, I know that. I mean the distance from our jobs. It would add at least an hour on the road. (15)‎ M: I hear what you're saying. But this is the nicest house we’ve looked at in our price range. Maybe we can eventually find new jobs that are closer. Honestly, I think it would be very foolish to pass up this deal (16)‎ Text 10‎ ‎ What is the most popular sport in America? Most people would probably say baseball, football, or basketball. These sports are often referred to as “The big Three”. (17) However, the sport that has the most overall participants and fans in the U.S. is actually soccer.‎ ‎ About 25 million people play soccer in the U.S., which is almost 10% of the total population. (18) Many of these players are young people, and soccer's popularity has grown over the years in part because children as young as five years old can play on organized teams. In contrast, most baseball and basketball leagues don't start until ages seven or eight. Also, most parents want to sign their kids up for soccer teams because the sport is considered very safe, unlike football. (19) Most importantly, the culture of youth soccer in America places greater importance on teamwork than being competitive.
