E

The Mississippi

    The Mississippi is a great river whose relationship with man goes way back beyond its discovery in the 16th century. The River Indians used it as a highway and as a source of food, and it was they who gave it its name—“misi” meaning “great” and “sipi” meaning “water”.When the length of its branch, the Missouri, is added to it, the Mississippi becomes greater.  71  . From the source of the Missouri to the tip of the delta (三角洲), it is 2, 480 miles long.

    Great rivers are likely to suffer floods. In 1927 the Mississippi flooded 26 thousand acres, sweeping away farms, towns, everything in its path. In 1938 its floods drowned or killed 200 people and made millions homeless. Today the river has largely been controlled.   72  .

    Industries have spread down some of the waterways of the delta, but otherwise the delta is a remote place, the homeland of a little colony of French Canadians that the British drove out of Nova Scotia in the 18th century. They still speak French, mixed with English, Indian, Spanish and Negro idioms. They keep to themselves, fanning the rich soil of the delta.   73  .

      74  . Pioneers who first reached its banks wondered not only where it went, but what lay beyond. In 1764 the French founded a city on the right bank of the river, and named it after their king, Louis XV. This city, named St. Louis, became the jumping-off place for the adventurous men and women who opened up the Great Plains, and the way to the Far West.

    Some 40 years earlier, at the beginning of the 18th century, the French had founded another city just above the Mississippi delta, New Orleans.   75  . New Orleans is one of the great ports of the world, and one of the greatest terminals for both sea and river traffic.

    A.It was the Mississippi that made the city what it is

    B.Levees, high banks built of earth, hold back the flood waters

    C.Therefore, as we know, it’s the third longest river in the world

    D.It is known that the“Great Water”has also been a frontier river

    E.However, they paddled up and down the Mississippi in their boats to seek their fortune

    F.The“Great Water”always remains a thread, for the streets of the city are below the level      of the river

    G.They call themselves Cajuns, who have actually been leading fairly primitive lives and      preserving their own traditions

第三部分 閱讀理解(共20小題,每題2分,滿分40分)
The writing of Shakespeare are today little read by young people in Britain.His young readership is limited to those who choose to study literature at university.
Shakespeare’s work, together with most other classics, is seen as remote, and written in a 400-year- old version of English that is about as inviting as toothache.
Still, in British schools, it is necessary to study the poet, and when something is made compulsory, usually the result is boredom, resentment(憎恨) or both.
This was my experience of the classics at school.But when I reached my late teenage years, I had a change of heart.Like every other young person since the dawn of time, the world confused me.I wanted answers, so I turned to books to find them.
I went on to take a PhD in literature and have taught it in Britain and China.I have never regretted it.There is something in literature that people want, even if they don’t read books.You see this in the popularity of TV and movie adaptations of great works, the recent film version of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice being a case in point.These popular adaptations may help increase people’s interest in the classics.
Reading a simplified Romeo and Juliet may perhaps lead to a reading of Shakespeare’s actual plays.If that is the case, then I welcome the trend.But do not make the mistake of thinking that it is the same thing.Shakespeare is a poet.His greatness is in his language.Reading someone else’s rewriting of his works is like peeling a banana, throwing away the fruit, and eating the skin.Take on the original.It really is worth the effort.
1.Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A.The language used in classics is no longer in use today.
B.British students usually find compulsory reading dull.
C.Only those studying literature read Shakespeare’s works.
D.For British people, Shakespeare’s works are no longer classics.
2.According to the passage, the writer _____ .
A.has liked literary classics since an early age
B.was forced to read the classics for a PhD
C.turned to literature to seek answers in his teens
D.thinks only people who read books like literature
3.The underlined phrase “a case in point” in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to “_____”.
A.a(chǎn) great hit                   B.a(chǎn) good example
C.a(chǎn) movie adaptation               D.a(chǎn) popular phenomenon
4.What does the writer intend to tell us in the last paragraph?
A.The fruit of a banana is more useful than its skin.
B.The rewriting trend does more harm than good.
C.Readers should try to read the original versions.
D.Readers need to learn the language in the classics.

科目:高中英語 來源:2010年兩省一市四校聯(lián)考第四次高考模擬考試(英語) 題型:閱讀理解

Agence Rrance-Presse--- French doctors this week carried out the world’s first operation on a human in zero gravity, using a specially adapted aircraft to create conditions in space.

During a three-hour flight from Bordeaux in southwest France, the team of surgeons and anesthetists (麻醉師) successfully removed a benign tumor (良性瘤) from the forearm of a 46-year-old volunteer. The experiment was part of a program backed by the European Space Agency to develop techniques for performing robotic surgery aboard the International Space Station or at a future Moon base.

“Now we know that a human being can be operated on in space without too many difficulties,” says the team leader Dr. Dominique Martin.

Under normal ground conditions, the operation would be performed under a local anesthetic. Without gravity, the surgeon’s work is harder and the patient’s body reacts differently. Blood doesn’t pump in the same way.

The custom-designed Airbus 300 aircraft performed a series of parabolic swoops (拋物線飛行), each creating between 20 seconds of weightlessness. The process was repeated 32 times.

Fixed inside a custom-made operating block, three surgeons and two anesthetists worked during these periods, with their instruments held in place with magnets around the patient’s bed. The next part of the program is to carry out a remote-controlled operation using a robot controlled from the ground by satellite. This experiment should take place within a year, Martin says.

Anesthetist Dr. Laurent de Coninek says that zero-gravity surgery offers huge promise for space exploration, although it would at first be limited to treating simple injuries. Today more than 400 people have already traveled into space. The chances of injuries occurring during missions will become even greater and to bring a wounded person back to the earth for treatment is both risky for them and expensive.

67. What would be the best title for the test?

A. A Special Operation for Doctors            B. First Operation on the Moon

C. World’s First Operation in Zero Gravity      D. An Important Experiment for Doctors

68. What’s the purpose of the operation?

A. To have an experiment on space operation.    B. To cure the patient.

C. To do it at the request of the patient.               D. To reduce the danger of operation on earth.

69. It is difficult for doctors to do operations in space because________________.

A. the patient’s illness will be more serious           B. the patient has no feeling about pain

C. the patient’s body reacts differently               D. the patient’s flood will stop flowing

70. The last paragraph mainly wants to tell readers________________.

A. there are many people injured in space           B. it is necessary to do the experiment

C. it is risky to travel in space                             D. there is no need to bring patients in space to the earth
