.单项填空
1．(2016·周口市高三第四次月考)The notices outside our teaching building ________ what we students showed an interest in when I was a schoolboy.
A．had always been banned
B．were always banning
C．were always banned
D．had always been banning
答案：B 考查ban的时态和语态。根据排除法，what引导名词性从句，因此排除A, C 两项，它们都是被动语态。又根据when I was a schoolboy可知主句谓语动词应用一般过去时态。因此选B项，句意为：当我上学大的时候，教学楼外面的通知总是禁止一些我们学生感兴趣的事情。
2．If a northerner lives in the south, he will probably feel that ________.
A．he disagrees to the climate there
B．the climate disagrees with him
C．he disagrees with the climate there
D．the climate disagrees to him
答案：B disagree with表示“不同意，(食物，气候等)不适宜”。此处指这种气候不适宜他。表示“(食物，气候等)不适宜某人”时，主语通常是食物、气候等。
3．(2012·宝鸡模拟)Facing the global financial crisis, the Chinese government has taken many measures ________ people's life to deal with it.
A．related B．related to
C．relating
D．relating to
答案：B 考查非谓语动词。句意：面对全球金融危机，中国政府已经采取了和人们的生活相关的许多措施来应对它。(be) related to 表示“与……有关”，related to people's life在此处作后置定语。
4．When he returned from his vacation, he found his apartment ________ and a lot of things ________.
A．breaking into; stealing
B．broken into; stolen
C．breaking in; stolen
D．broken in; stealing
答案：B break into和break in都表示“破门而入”，但后者不能接宾语，不能用于被动语态。此处break into与his apartment以及steal与a lot of things之间都是逻辑上的被动关系，故都用过去分词的形式。broken into与stolen在此处作宾语补足语。
5．So ________ that everybody wants to take a photo with him.
A．a wellknown man he is
B．wellknown he is a man
C．a wellknown man is he
D．wellknown a man is he
答案：D 句意：他是那样一个著名的人以至于每个人都想与他合影。so与单数可数名词连用时，要用so＋adj.＋a/an＋n.，提到句首，主句要用部分倒装语序。
6．The matter ________ your study surely requires ________ carefully.
A．related to; dealing with
B．relating to; dealt with
C．related to; being dealt with
D．relating to; have dealt with
答案：A 第一个空用related to作定语，表示“与……有关的”；require表示“需要”时，后接doing，相当于to be done，所以第二个空用dealing with。故A项正确。
7．________ miss the early train, we should start right now.
A．So as to not
B．To not
C．In order to not
D．In order not to
答案：D 考查目的状语的表示方法。so as to不放在句首，in order to用于否定句时，not加在to之前。
8．The ________ soldier told us his story before long he ______. His ________ made us very sad.
A．dying; died; death
B．dying; death; died
C．dead; died; dying
D．died; dead; death
答案：A dying表示“快要死的；临终的”；die为动词；dead为形容词“死的”；death为名词“死亡”。
9．—I found the mark rather frightening.
—________ It frightened me to death just now.
A．That's reasonable advice.
B．Isn't it a good idea?
C．Do you think so?
D．I can't agree more.
答案：D 考查交际用语。That's reasonable advice.那是合理的建议；Isn't it a good idea？这不是个好主意吗？Do you think so？你这样认为吗？I can't agree more.我完全同意。根据It frightened me to death just now.可知第二个说话者同意第一个人的看法。故选D。
10．I thought I ________ my wife's voice as soon as I entered it though many people were talking in the room.
A．recognised
B．knew
C．recited
D．found
答案：A 考查动词词义辨析。recognise认出；know认识，知道；recite背诵；find发现。句意：虽然很多人在房间里说话，但我认为一走进房间我就听出了我妻子的声音。此处强调辨认出，故选A。
11．She runs about 15 miles every day, ________ the weather is like.
A．whichever
B．however
C．whenever
D．whatever
答案：D 考查连词。句意：不管天气怎样，她每天都跑大约15英里。whatever the weather is like＝no matter what the weather is like。
12．All children's shoes are now ________ to $20 a pair so it's a real bargain.
A．increased
B．reduced
C．sold
D．fallen
答案：B 考查动词辨析。根据it's a real bargain可知童鞋降价了。reduce...to...把……减少到……。
13．(2012·济宁模拟)She's very ________ to ring me tonight so I will have the mobile phone on all the time.
A．possible
B．probable
C．likely
D．maybe
答案：C sb./sth.＋be＋likely to do sth.某人或某物可能会做某事。possible和probable不能用于这种类似的结构。
14．With little time left, I had to ________ this difficult math problem I failed to work out and started checking.
A．give in
B．give back
C．give up
D．give off
答案：C 考查give短语的辨析。give in“屈服；让步”；give back“归还；恢复”；give up“放弃”； give off“发出(蒸气，光等)”。句意：考试剩下的时间不多了，我只得放弃那道还没有解出的数学难题，开始检查。故答案为C项。
15．—Are you satisfied with her answer?
—Not at all. It couldn't have been ________.
A．worse
B．so bad
C．better
D．the worst
答案：A “can't/couldn't...＋比较级”表示肯定的意义，意为“非常……”。根据语境Not at all可知很不满意，所以用A项表示“非常糟糕”。
.阅读理解
Amanda took whatever pills she could get, largely because she was finding life hard to take. “There were a lot of problems，” she says. She had just found out that her parents were splitting (分开). It took her by surprise—and she was shocked. “I woke up one morning, and they told me. ”
On a few occasions during her two years of going to pharming parties(品药聚会). “My heart would race so fast that it felt like it was going to explode. I felt weak and confused sometimes and even passed_out several times，” she recalls. “But I picked up from the ground because I had a lot of pride in my drinking and drugging. I was really crazy about it and proud of the fact that I could take more than a lot of people. I could come home and have a conversation with my parents.”
Finally, though, things got out of control. “I couldn't go a day without taking something，” she recalls, “and after a while, the pills upset my stomach；it hurt all the time, and I hardly ate. Finally, I couldn't take it any more. I went to my parents and told them I needed help.”
Amanda entered a treatment program and has been calm since her release last January. “Detox(戒瘾)was the worst four days of my entire life，”she says.“I was throwing up all the food and had the shakes.”
She doesn't care about drugs. “I'm so hurt from this，” says Amanda，who has uleers(溃疡)and damaged kidneys from the drugs and alcohol. “I have to struggle daily to stay calm. But in some ways，I feel lucky I went through it, and I'm out of it now.” Amanda wrote a song called “Goodnight to the Moonlight”. Amanda says，“It's about how it feels to be taking drugs and alcohol, how it hurts, how it makes you feel like you're losing yourself.”
1. What is the purpose of writing the passage?
A. To tell us that parents have a great influence on their children.
B. To warn us that drugs are a danger to our health and mind.
C. To tell us once you pick up bad habits，it is hard to get rid of.
D. To tell us that as long as you are determined，you will overcome any difficulty.
答案：D 主旨大意题。本文叙述了阿曼达受父母离婚的影响，对生活失去希望并开始吸毒，身体受到严重损害，曾一度达到失控的境地，但最终戒毒成功的故事。由此可推出作者的写作目的：告诉我们只要有坚强的意志，就能克服任何困难。
2．The underlined expression “passed out” ( Paragraph 2)probably means ________.
A. left out
B. suddenly became senseless
C. suddenly kicked out
D. wanted to give up
答案：B 词义猜测题。由下文“But I picked up from the ground because I had a lot of pride in my drinking and drugging.”可知passed out的意思为“昏厥，晕倒”，故答案为B项。
3. From the second paragraph we can learn that ________.
A. she was bored with her behaviour
B. she never felt frightened or ashamed of taking pills
C. she took pride in the fact that she could take much more drugs
D. she was so strong in body that she never felt tired
答案：C 细节理解题。由文章第二段可知，吸毒使阿曼达的心脏加速，甚至出现昏迷的情况，但是她为自己能比别人吸食更多的毒品而感到自豪。故答案为C项。
4. Which of the following is NOT the side effect of taking drugs on her health?
A. Her stomach felt upset and she couldn't eat anything.
B. She became addicted to drugs and couldn't live without them.
C. She felt confused and almost broke down.
D. She was able to help herself even though she was addicted.
答案：D 细节理解题。由第三段中“Finally, though, things got out of control.”和“Finally, I couldn't take it any more. I went to my parents and told them I needed help.”可知阿曼达吸毒已达到无法控制的程度，她需要父母的帮助。故D项表述错误。其他三项文中均有表述。
5．It can be inferred from the last paragraph that ________.
A．Amanda had such a strong will that she didn't lose herself
B．her song expressed her thanks and delight
C．Detox was not really a success to Amanda
D．drugs and alcohol ruined her health as well as her spirit
答案：A 推理判断题。最后一段说，阿曼达努力地保持冷静，关键时候没有丧失理智，她感到很幸运，尽管经历了吸毒和痛苦的戒毒，但最终成功了。由此可以推出她意志坚强，关键时候没有丧失自我。

In the United States，train transportation is unpopular compared with cars and airplanes.Most people like traveling by car or by air.
Officials of the United States Department of Transportation made a study in 2001.The study is about how many miles Americans traveled by different means of transportation.They only studied trips longer than 50 miles.The study showed that fiftysix percnen of all miles were traveled in personal vehicle.Fortyone percent were traveled in an airplane.Two percent were traveled in a bus.And less than one percent of miles were traveled in a train.

Ⅵ.书面表达
(2016·周口市高三第四次月考)
如今，在我们身边，父母均在外打工的留守儿童比比皆是。关注留守儿童，是构建和谐社会的重要内容。请就此现象写一篇短文，谈谈你自己的看法。
提示：
1．缺乏父母的关爱，性格孤僻。
2．缺乏安全保障，容易犯错误甚至犯罪。
3．父母尽可能给孩子关爱。
4．社会各界能够帮助他们。
参考词汇：留守儿童leftbehind children，孤僻unsociable
要求：词数120词左右。
参考范文：
Nowadays, there are many leftbehind children whose parents work away from their hometowns. Most of them are from the countryside, and you know, they have many problems. They are always lonely and stressed out because they are short of their parents' love. At the same time, they are easy to make mistakes even do some thing against the laws, because they're short of their families' care.
How should we do to solve their problems? In my opinion, the government can set up a parents school for these children on holidays, you can organize “handinhand” activity to call on more people to help them. You can also raise money to donate to these children. As the song says：“If everyone gives their love, the world will be better.” It's very important for us to pay more attention to these children if we want to build a harmonious society.
