　　(2017·郴州高三模拟)Homework will not be a concern for pupils attending a pioneering new secondary school in Norfolk.Instead，the 1,100 children will stay longer at school，doing extra study at school as part of the extended(延长的)school day，which could last until about 5 pm.

　　Rather than setting homework that pupils could struggle with at home，where there may be limited access to computers，they will do that as independent study in the day.When they go home they should enjoy quality family time.That has been really well received by parents who respect the fact that family time will be family time.But the school would still expect youngsters to study at home ahead of important exams.

　　Independent learning at school would ensure equality because kids who get help with homework from parents might rely on others too much.

　　Peter Devonish，a teacher at the school，said，“Having the children at school a bit longer to strengthen their learning is a really good idea，because they can have their time with the family.”But he warned，“A disadvantage is that our school is in the countryside，which means it’s not so perfect to get children home at that time.”

　　Mr.Devonish said they also set pupils project－based homework，such as looking at an energy－efficient house，which allowed them to combine independent study with working with their parents.

　　Craig Morrison，another teacher，said，“A large problem with homework has been that not enough is done with it.With homework，a lot of effort can go into it，so it’s about celebrating what children do rather than processing it in terms of marking it and handing it back.”

　　1．How will students spend their longer days at school?

　　A．They will prepare their lessons for exams.

　　B．They will do homework with their teachers.

　　C．They will study all by themselves.

　　D．They will do homework on computers.

　　2．Why is the new idea well accepted by some parents?

　　A．Because it helps kids with their homework.

　　B．Because kids will enjoy quality family time.

　　C．Because kids will be educated equally at school.

　　D．Because it can make houses more energy－efficient.

　　3．What is Mr.Devonish worried about?

　　A．The students may dislike the idea.

　　B．No staff will agree to stay until 5：30 p．m..

　　C．More teachers will be needed.

　　D．The students may get home late.

　　4．According to Mr.Morrison，the problem with homework is________.

　　A．what effort children make to do it

　　B．how teachers mark it and return it

　　C．how much homework should be set

　　D．that parents may object to the plan

　　5．The passage is mainly about________.

　　A．teachers who are asked to stay at school longer

　　B．a school where children stay longer for homework

　　C．homework which students have to deal with

　　D．students who like quality school time with teachers

　　(2017·湘潭模拟)College provides an important platform for the future professional life.The grades speak well about the kind of student you are and will also determine the chances of further studies.You cannot do all things at one time.At time you need to decide what to do according to their importance.This is one good skill that you will be requiring even after graduation.

　　There are few tips to help you at college：

　　Just find the place where you will not be disturbed.Grab your reading material，note pad，pen and other necessities.Distraction is a biggest hurdle in focusing.You need to ask yourself what distracts you the most.Is it music from the neighbors，presence of someone at home，Internet or anything else？Try to be aware of your weakest points and then stay away from them as much possible during your study time.The distraction may also include your friends and some other things.It is only you who can decide that what is best for you.

　　When you are ready for studying，then arrange the reading material and decide what things you need to study first.Put_maximum_time_on_your_weak_and_major_subjects.Set aside your minor ones for few hours as you know that these are comparatively less important than the majors.

　　Make a realistic study plan which you can follow and stick to it.There is no point of making an 8－hour study schedule daily as you know that it’s not possible for you.Start the preparation at least 4 weeks before the exams.

　　While making a study plan，don’t forget the breaks after every 90 minutes of study.It will help your eyes to relax and focus in an effective manner.Make a checklist of small milestones and put this on your table so you can see them frequently.When you are done with one or more cross them from the list and focus on the new ones.

　　(2017·汝城一中、长沙实验中学高三联考)Today，February twenty－ninth，is leap day(闰日)．This date only appears on the calendar once every four years.But why?

　　Everyone knows the Earth takes three hundred sixty－five days to travel around the sun.Well，that is not exactly correct.The Earth really takes three hundred sixty－five days，five hours，forty－eight minutes and forty－six seconds to complete its orbit around the sun.

　　The problem for people developing calendars was what to do with the extra five hours，forty－eight minutes and forty－six seconds.

　　People needed calendars to help them know when to plant crops and when to celebrate religious holidays.The ancient Greeks and Chinese had a solution.They produced calendars that included extra months every nineteen years.

　　The ancient Romans had a different solution.In the year forty－six，the Roman ruler Julius Caesar made a new calendar.The Julian calendar included an extra day every four years.But there was a problem.The Julian year was just over eleven minutes longer than the cycle of the seasons.In 1582，Pope Gregory the Thirteenth established a new calendar to keep a better recorder of the days.Pole Gregory was the religious leader of most of Europe.He decided that years that could be divided by four would add a day.However，years that ended in two zeros and that could not be evenly divided by four hundred would not be leap years.For example，the years 1700,1800 and 1900 were not leap years.But the years 1600 and 2000 were leap years.

　　So leap years are years with three hundred sixty－six days，instead of the usual three hundred sixty－five.This extra day is added to the calendar on February twenty－ninth，sometimes known as leap day.People born on leap day may be called “leapings”．They usually celebrate their birthday on February twenty－eight or March first.

　　Title：1.____________

　　Reasons The Earth really takes 356 days,5 hours,48 minutes and 46 seconds to complete its orbit around the sun.

　　2.____________ is needed to benefit people’s daily life and work.

　　3.____________ How to deal with the extra 5 hours,48 minutes and 46 seconds.

　　4.____________ 5.____________ Ways

　　Ancient

　　Greeks

　　and Chinese Producing 6. ___________

　　every 19 years

　　7. ___________Producing an extra

　　day 8.____________

　　The Pop

　　Gregory ⅩⅢ Producing a leap day if the year could be divided 9.____________.No leap day when the year ended in two zeros but could not be divided by 400.

　　Result Leap day 10.____________ and February twenty－ninth was added to the calendar.

　　(2017·岳阳一中高三月考)Elephants and people are in competition for space. In much of Africa, elephants are now put in national parks. Elephants suffered a serious and steady decrease in number in the 1970s.This was the same time when scientists were beginning to learn a great deal about elephants and their behavior. Studies through the 1980s and into the 1990s showed a lot about their sounds and methods of communication.

　　In Kenya alone, in the 1970s and 1980s, the elephant population decreased from 170,000 to 25,000. The sharp drop in number was the result of poachers (偷猎者) illegally killing elephants for their ivory. The price of ivory went up from $3 a pound to $50 to $100 a pound. Africa became very attractive to poachers. Bull elephants carried larger tusks (象牙), so they were more often killed. With males gone and older females killed by poachers as well, there were many young elephants unable to benefit from the wisdom of the older females and matriarches, who lead the herds.

　　Kenya took a stand that international trade in ivory was officially forbidden, and $3,000,000 worth of confiscated(没收的)ivory was burned in Kenya. The following year, only 50 elephants were lost to poachers in Kenya instead of 3,000. But Kenya has the fastest growing human population in the world. People throughout Africa won’t tolerate elephants eating their crops and destroying their livelihoods. In South Africa, elephants live behind the fences of national parks. In some parts of Africa, big－game hunters pay a lot of money to hunt elephants. This keeps their numbers down, and the money goes toward conservation. In Kenya, there are some attempts at birth control to keep the elephant population in manageable numbers to reduce conflicts with people.

　　Faced with a growing human population, elephants are losing the battle for space. It’s unlikely, though, that they will become extinct(绝种的). They will live in natural parks that bring tourists to Africa as well as India and other parts of Asia. The money from tourism will help elephants to survive.

　　1．What’s the reason for elephant population decrease？(No more than 8 words)

　　________________________________________________________________________

　　2．Why were bull elephants at higher risk of being killed？(No more than 6 words)

　　________________________________________________________________________

　　3．How can we reduce conflicts with elephants？(No more than 9 words)

　　4．Why is it not likely that elephants will become extinct？(no more than 15 words)

　　1．解析：选B。corruption“腐败”；examination“检查”；observation“观察”；consideration“考虑”。句意：记者揭露了几个政府高级官员的腐败。结果这些官员被要求辞职。

　　2．解析：选D。句意：他盯着空瓶子看了一会儿，感到非常高兴他已经把那只蝴蝶放回了它属于的地方——大自然。send sth.back to“把某物送回……”，to后接宾语，根据本题结构to后应为宾语从句，宾语从句“________ it belonged”缺少地点状语，因此用where，故选D项。

　　3．解析：选D。remaining “剩余的”；trembling voice“颤抖的声音”，trembling是现在分词作定语，和voice之间构成主动关系。

　　4．解析：选C。aware of“意识到……的”。句意：他们的突然进攻使我们更加意识到我们周围的危险。

　　5．解析：选B。考查动词用法和词义辨析。judging from...是固定短语，常在句中作状语。不管它与主语是主动还是被动关系，都要用现在分词形式。

　　6．解析：选D。该题为一个带有定语从句的复合句，句中作定语的关系代词who指代先行词teachers，为复数，故谓语动词该用are；as well as连接两个主语时，谓语动词要根据前一个主语决定；由 every，no，each 等限定的并由and连接的两个并列名词作主语时，谓语动词要用单数形式。故答案应选D。

　　7．解析：选D。句意：这本书是在仔细观察与细致研究的基础上撰写的。on the ground of“因为，由于”；on behalf of“代表”；on average“平均”；on the basis of“在……基础上”。

　　10．解析：选C。in fact常用来表示与上文不相符的某件事；luckily常用来表示一种好的结果；unfortunately常用来表示一种不好的结果；naturally表示一种理所当然的结果。根据下文的意思，只有选项C正确。

　　11．解析：选C。句意：这所学校创建于20世纪早期，它一直激励着孩子们对于艺术的热爱。the school与found之间为被动关系，故用过去分词。

　　12．解析：选B。句意：随着经济危机变得越来越严重，政府正在寻求办法来改善人民的生活。as和with都有“随着”的意义，但as是连词，后需跟从句，而with是介词，后跟n.，所以选B。

　　13．解析：选A。take over“接管”；think over“反复考虑”；hand over“移交”；go over“复习，温习”。句意：据说当他足够成熟处理公共事务时，他会接管他叔叔的企业。

　　14．解析：选C。词组carry out 和the 11th five­year plan之间是动宾关系，所以用过去分词结构表示被动。

　　15．解析：选C。考查一般过去时的被动形式。句意：——哦，这真的是一个古老的建筑。——你知道它是什么时候建的吗？was built一般过去时的被动语态表示过去被建，故选C。
