(2014·岳阳市第一次高三模拟考试)Australia is a nation occupying the whole of the Australian continent; aboriginal tribes are thought to have migrated from southeastern Asia 20,000 years ago; first Europeans were British convicts sent there as a penal colony.
Australia, the last continent, was discovered by ships belonging to some European nations in the seventeenth century, these nations were less interested in changing it into a colony than in exploring it. As in the early history of the United States, it was the English who set up the settlements in Australia. This history and the geography of these two British colonies have some other things in common as well.
Australia and the United States are about the same in size and their western lands are both not rich in soil. It was the eastern coast of Australia and America that the English first settled, and both colonies soon began to develop to
wards the west. However, this westward movement took place more because the English were searching for better land and because the population was increasing. Settlements of the western part of both countries developed quickly after gold was discovered in America in 1849 and in Australia two years later.
Although the development of these two countries has a lot in common, there are some striking differences as well.
The United States gained its independence from England by revolution while Australia won its independence without having to go to war. Australia, unlike the United States, was firstly turned into a colony by English prisoners and its economic development was in wheat growing and sheep raising. By 1922, for example, Australia had fifteen times more sheep than it had people or almost half as many sheep as there people today in the United States. Yet, in spite of these and other main differences, Australia and the United States have more in common with each other than either one has with most of the rest of the world.

A．Britain.
B．Several European countries.
C．The United States.
D．None of the above.

(2014·南通第一次调研)The argument over a Philadelphia school district accused of secretly spying on pupils through laptop cameras became fiercer today after it acknowledged obtaining more than 56,000 images of its students, many of them in their homes.
When the scandal (丑闻) first broke, it was believed that only a few pictures had been taken of one pupil, Blake Robbins. But court papers released this week showed that thousands of images were taken of Robbins and other students.
Robbins and his parents have filed an action against the school
district. Court papers from the Robbins's lawyers said that at first it was thought that the laptops' technology had produced a few images but they found more than 400 of Robbins, including images “showing him partially undressed and sleeping”．
Robbins said he did not know why the spying device was activated (激活) as his laptop had not been reported stolen or missing. Other students whose pictures were taken said their laptops had not been reported stolen or missing either.
An administrator at the school, one of the few with authority to track the laptops, remained silent, refusing to answer questions.
The Philadelphia Inquirer reported that 38,500 of the images came from six laptops that had been reported missing from the Harriton gym in September 2008. These apparently helped the police catch a suspect. Another set of images were from cameras in laptops which employees responsible for tracking failed or forgot to turn off.
The court papers, filed by Robbins' lawyers, said that the technology was activated between 20 October and 4 November last year, with most of the 400 shots of him while he was in his home, and included his family. “There were additional webcam pictures and screen shots taken of Blake Robbins which, up to now, have not been recovered because the evidence was deleted by the IT department，” the court papers say.
One of Robbins' lawyers is trying to obtain access to the administrator's home computer to confirm whether she downloaded any of the pictures. The court papers indicate she may be a voyeur (窥隐私者) though it has not been proved.
1．We can learn from the passage that ________.
A．Robbins' parents remained calm over the scandal
B．Robbins had his laptop stolen before the scandal
C．the laptops' technology produced some images
D．the private rights of the students were offended
2．What did The Philadelphia Inquirer say about the case?
A．The police had found some evidence.
B．Most of the laptops in Harriton gym were missing.
C．Employees in charge of tracking deliberately left the laptops on.
D．There was obviously more than one suspect related to the case.
3．According to the court papers, the administrator________.
A．may have spied her students on purpose
B．may have broken into Robbin's house
C．has downloaded many students' pictures
D．has removed evidence from computers
4．What does the passage mainly talk about?
A．Modern technology has negative effects on our lives.
B．Students in Philadelphia are accustomed to being spied on secretly.
C．A Philadelphia school is charged with spying students through laptop cameras.
D．The American government should take measures to improve teachers' qualities.

1．选B 句意：由于一次医疗事故，Susan失明了，突然就被抛入了一个充满了黑暗、愤怒、沮丧(frustration)和自怜的世界里。与darkness, anger, selfpity这些贬义词相呼应，且根据常识可知，一个正常人突然失明了之后，应该是特别沮丧的，故答案B符合文意。sympathy“同情”；awkwardness“尴尬”；anxiety“焦虑”，均不符合语境，故排除。
2．选A 句意：她不得不依赖(rely on)她的丈夫Mark。base on“基于”；carry on“继续移动”；work on“从事”，均不符合语境，故排除。
3．选D 句意：……他决定(determined)尽一切可能的方法来帮助自己的妻子。excited“兴奋的”；stubborn“固执的”；concerned“关切的”，均不符合语境，故排除。be/become determined to do sth.为固定用法，意为“下定决心做某事”。
4．选A 句意：最终，Susan感觉她做好回去工作的准备了，但是她怎么去工作的地方呢？上文提到在事故发生时，Susan是很愤怒，很沮丧的，此处指在丈夫全心全意的帮助下，Susan终于做好了重返工作岗位的准备，故答案A符合文意。
5．选C 句意：她过去经常乘公交车去上班，但是现在她很害怕(frightened)，以至于自己一个人不能够在这个城市里随便转悠。根据常识可知，一个人突然失明，看不见任何事物，内心应该是恐慌的。ready“准备好了”；independent“独立的”；proud“骄傲的”，均不符合语境，故排除。
6．选D 句意：Mark自告奋勇每天陪妻子一起乘(ride)公交车上下班，一直到妻子适应为止。drive“开车”；send“送”；follow“跟随”，均不符合语境，故排除。ride有“搭乘(车辆)”之意，故选D。

1．选D 推理判断题。根据第一段第一句中的“... accused of secretly spying on pupils through laptop cameras ... acknowledged obtaining more than 56,000 images of its students ...”可知，费城一所学校通过手提电脑的摄像头获取了大量学生照片，侵犯了学生的隐私权。故D项正确。

Chinese Dream
The “Chinese Dream” has
become a hot topic among Chinese people. According to a recent survey by CCTV, different groups of people have different dreams.
Urban residents dream of having easy access to modern transportation so that life will be easier and more convenient. Besides, they hope to enjoy a better living environment and more public facilities. What college students are mainly concerned about is employment. So their dream is to have wellpaid jobs where they can bring their potentials into full play. Meanwhile, they hope the government will strengthen its supervision over food so that people can have more pollutionfree and green food. As for the farmers,
they hope that they can enjoy good and affordable medical care and their children can receive a good education.
As far as I am concerned, my dream is to be enrolled by a good university and be a talent who can make contributions to my country. Besides, I dream there to be practical reforms in education so that high school students have enough time to sleep and exercise.
