　　【江苏省淮安市2015届高三第五次模拟】Years ago, I had the opportunity to conduct a seminar. This was a motivational one basically designed to

　　1

　　people in changing their lives,

　　2

　　their personal barriers in life.

　　It was always

　　3

　　to meet the seminar attendees. Some of them couldn’t wait to get started, others were

　　4

　　about what they would get for their money, and others attended

　　5

　　often being forced by pressure.

　　This last group was always the most

　　6

　　to work with. They sit there with

　　7

　　crossed, rarely participating in any of the specific exercises meant to help them build positive behaviors to

　　8

　　old habits and thoughts.

　　In the end, I started to look through the evaluations paying particular attention to find the form submitted by one of the attendees who had seemingly

　　9

　　less attentiveness. To my disappointment, in this

　　10

　　, there was no form. I left that day thinking that I had

　　11

　　this person.

　　As I

　　12

　　my preparation for the next seminar afterwards, one day I received a phone call —it was the

　　13

　　attendee who had not submitted the evaluation form! My immediate

　　14

　　was to prepare for a request for a total refund(退款).

　　It was not the case,

　　15

　　. He took his time to tell me how much the seminar had already helped him change his ways, and how much more comfortable he was with himself now that he knew how to overcome his own personal barriers

　　16

　　success both personally and professionally. I was surprised and glad to be

　　17

　　to him.

　　Actually we all have power to affect the

　　18

　　of others, but this power can also be negative if you use it wrongly or improperly. Power — you all have it — use it

　　19

　　because you never know what impact you have on other people even when you think

　　20

　　.

　　1. A. rescue B. assist C. sponsor D. treat

　　II阅读 (共两节，满分30分)

　　第一节 阅读理解 (共1小题；每小题2分，满分20分)

　　阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

　　A

　　CHICAGO ---- For working parents and heavily scheduled school kids, family mealtime is out of fashion. But supermarkets are trying to attract families back to the dinner table.

　　There is a cost if family members have meals apart: research shows that teenagers who don’t eat with their parents face a greater risk of drug and alcohol problems.

　　“The more often kids have dinner with their parents, the less likely they are to smoke, drink or use drugs,” said Joseph Califano Jr., head of the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse, which did the research.

　　Stores are familiar with the idea and will start telling shoppers about the findings and encouraging them to share meals together at home, instead of separately or at restaurants.

　　The food marketing Institute will give $25,000 to the center and help stores promote the center’s Family Day in September.

　　Many stores have grab-and-go dinners and recipe cards. Some have kiosks where people can taste a main dish, then pick out side dishes.

　　“Our members have worked hard to try to have easily prepared food either ready to eat or ready to take home,” said Tim Hammonds, the institute’s president and chief executive.

　　Los Angeles-based Contessa Premium Foods makes frozen delicious meals, which a family can heat in 10 minutes to 12 minutes. “That’s nearly as fast as a TV dinner,” said president and chief executive John Z. Blazevich, “but is healthier and makes people feel like they actually cooked.”

　　“The preparation is the hardest part, so we try to combine a variety of tastes and flavours from around the world and make it fast and easy,” he said.

　　“Eating at home helps keep meals healthy and teaches kids how to eat right. If we can get people back to having family dinners, parents back to being engaged with their kids, it will have a surprising impact,” he said.

　　31. The reasons why family mealtime is out of fashion are the following EXCEPT __________.

　　A. the parents are busy with work

　　B. the children have a little spare time

　　C. the children are not fond of family meal

　　D. it will take much time to cook and eat at home

　　32. The underlined word “cost” in paragraph 2 can be explained as ___________.

　　A. gains

　　B. a sum of money

　　C. advantage

　　D. something you lose

　　33. According to the passage, stores are trying to attract families back to the dinner table by the following ways EXCEPT ________.

　　A. telling the parents the disadvantages of having dinner separately.

　　B. offering various prepared food to make family cooking fast and easy.

　　C. taking part in Family Day activities in September.

　　D. helping housewives prepare their meals at home.

　　34. What is the passage mainly about?

　　A. The efforts that are being made to get people back to having family dinners

　　B. The benefits of having family dinners together.

　　C. The changes in American family dinners.

　　D. A research done by the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse.

　　35. What would be the best title for the passage?

　　A. Family Mealtime is out of Fashion

　　B. Family Day is Promoted in September

　　C. Parents should Cook Meals for Kids

　　D. Supermarkets Urges Families to Dinner Table

　　文章大意：这是一篇叙述文，叙述了超级市场正努力吸引家庭成员回到晚餐桌上一起享受家庭聚餐时光。介绍了各市场的措施及相关研究成果，呼吁大家与家人共度晚餐。

　　32.D.考查词义理解。在文中cost是名词，意为“代价”。由这句中研究结果“teenagers who don’t eat with their parents face a greater risk of drug and alcohol problems.”不与父母共餐的青少年有更高的风险面对毒品和酒精问题。可知cost意为something you lose.故选D。

　　33.D.细节理解题。本题问结合文章，商店正努力吸引家庭成员们回到晚餐桌上没有通过下列哪个方式。由第三段“stores will start telling shoppers about the findings…”这里的findings指上文研究发现父母与孩子单独吃饭的坏处，排除A选项。结合后文知商店提高种类繁多的准备好的食物可在家又快又轻松烹饪，可排除B选项。结合第五段，“The food marketing Institute will give $21500…help stores promote the center’s Family Day in September.”可排除C选项。D选项“帮助家庭主妇在家准备她们的饭餐。故选D。

　　34.A.文章主旨题。本题问本文主要关于什么。文章第一句开门见山就指出“supermarkets are trying to attract families back to the dinner table.”故选A“努力正被投入让人们回到餐桌与家人一起共度晚餐。”

　　35.D.文章总结概括题。本题问文章的最佳标题是什么。A“家庭聚餐时间不流行” B“家庭日在九月被提升” C“父母应为孩子煮饭” D“超级市场督促家庭成员回到晚餐桌上”。结合全文故选D。

　　Whether you admit it or not, music improves our daily life and makes us feel easy, especially the music of Beethoven and Mozart. But can you believe that a school in England is using classical music to cut down students’ bad behavior?

　　The head teacher Brian Walker at the West Park School in Derby asks some students to stay behind after school on Fridays. He forces his students to listen to Mozart and other classical music. He also makes them copy his favorite poems and they have to watch educational videos.

　　Mr. Walker says his main aim is to stop noisy pupils causing trouble in class for students who want to study. He said the students staying behind were “not the smokers or drinkers, the truants (逃学生) or the people who are late for school…It’s those who have slowed the learning and teaching in class for everyone”. Mr. Walker said this was unacceptable, because it was making the rest of the students fail to focus their attention on their study.

　　Mr. Walker believes what he does reminds students that education is something to value. “It helps them see they are part of something bigger that will improve their life chances,” he said. The head teacher thinks students in fact learn from being kept behind after school. “Hopefully, I open their ears to an experience they don’t normally have and don’t want to have again, so it’s both educational and acts as a warning.”

　　Music has had success elsewhere in reducing bad behavior. In 2004, it reduced crime on London’s subway by 25 percent. Researchers from a Belfast university found it helped stop elephants’ bad behavior.

　　However, one West Park student called Kieran said, “An hour of Mr. Walker’s music is a real killer.”

　　36. Mr. Walker asks his students to listen to music to _______________.

　　A. make them rest after a day’s study

　　B. punish them for their bad behavior

　　C. get them to love arts gradually

　　D. reduce their bad behavior

　　37. A student who _____ may be left behind to listen to Mozart after class.

　　A. plays truant

　　B. smokes in class

　　C. bothers others in class

　　D. comes late for class

　　38. Why does Mr. Walker say some students’ bad behavior is unacceptable?

　　A. Because the rest of the students hate them.

　　B. Because they are wasting their life.

　　C. Because they are disturbing teachers.

　　D. Because they have a bad influence on the other students.

　　39. In the eyes of Mr. Walker, _____.

　　A. some students don’t realize education is valuable

　　B. all students can learn from music

　　C. music must be taught after class

　　D. students ought to love music

　　40. It can be inferred from the last two paragraphs that _____.

　　A. the action Mr. Walker takes sometimes doesn’t really work as planned

　　B. Mr. Walker aims to tell students study is important

　　C. once music helped animals behave well

　　D. animals also like to listen to music

　　文章大意：本文是一篇议论文。主要讲的是West Park School的校长Brian Walker通过给行为举止不好的学生放古典音乐以规范他们的行为。一方面，这一新鲜的方法确实对规范和约束行为有一定的好的作用和效果；另一方面，它也不可避免的遭到一些不满和批评。

　　36.D 细节题。此题答案要到第一段的最后一句去找，“But can you believe that a school in England is using classical music to cut down students’ bad behavior?”但是你会相信英国的一所学校用古典乐去减少学生的坏行为吗？故选D。

　　38.D 细节题。从文章第三段最后一句话可知，“Mr. Walker said this was unacceptable, because it was making the rest of the students fail to focus their attention on their study.”Mr. Walker说道不被接受的原因是他们严重影响了其他学生的正常的，专心的学习，故选D。

　　39.A 推断题。 从文章第四段第一句话可知，“Mr. Walker believes what he does reminds students that education is something to value.” Mr. Walker相信他的这一举动提醒了学生要关注教育的价值，故选A。

　　40.A 推断题。“Music has had success elsewhere in reducing bad behavior.”和 “An hour of Mr. Walker’s music is a real killer.”最后二段分别从一正一反表达了对古典乐治疗法的优劣批判，故选A。

　　The relationship between parents and teachers is important in the development of a child. The good communication between them is communication that says ,“ I care about my child, and I value school.” The best way a parent can show how much he or she values learning is by sending a prepared child to school every day. 41

　　Dear Mike,

　　I’ve finally made my decision to go to America for further study after high school.

　　I’ve been longing to go to America, mainly for two reasons. One is that I can experience American culture, and the other is that I can broaden my mind in this country. But I have some worries. My English is a bit poor, especially spoken English. I’m afraid I’ll have trouble communicating. Besides, I may suffer from heavy pressure from college courses.

　　I hope you can offer me some practical advice.

　　Look forward to your reply.

　　Yours，
