【題目】閱讀理解。

Following the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge,Australia plans to build a new landmark—a Chinese theme park,including a full-sized replica(復(fù)制品)of the gates to Beijing’s Forbidden City.The plan,which will cost ￡330 million,has been passed by the local government.This big park is to be built in Wyong Shire,about 50 miles north of Sydney.

The local mayor,Doug Eaton,said the park,to be finished in 2020,was built to become one of the country’s main tourist attractions.“What this park will do is to turn Wyong into a tourist destination and bring millions of money into the area.”The government has agreed to sell the land to the Australian Chinese Theme Park Pty Ltd,the personal company behind the project.The big project will begin with the building of the Forbidden City gates in 2015.

Besides a full-sized replica of the gates to Beijing’s Forbidden City,the park will also have a huge temple with a giant Buddha(佛)and a mini-city looking like Chinese water towns.There is also a part in the building style of the Tang and Song dynasties and another in the style of the Ming and Qing dynasties.It will feature a 1,000-seat theatre,restaurants,a royal villa(皇家別墅),and a children’s part built for pandas,which won’t have any pandas.

“It’s going to be a special $500 million tourist attraction,engaging more than a thousand people to work for it and bringing fast development to Wyong,”said Bruce Zhong,chairman of the ACTP.The project is designed to create a big Chinese tourist market.Experiences in many countries have shown that the more one attracts Chinese tourists,the more money one would make.For example,more than 400,000 Chinese tourists visit the state of New South Wales each year.

【1】What is Doug Eaton’s attitude to the Chinese theme park?

A.Doubtful. B.Supportive.

C.Negative. D.Disappointed.

【2】From the passage,we can learn that .

A.the Opera House and the Harbour Bridge are the only two landmarks in Australia

B.the Australian government will pay for the building of the Chinese theme park

C.the local government is against the plan of building the Chinese theme park

D.the Chinese theme park includes a kid area showing something about pandas

【3】The underlined word “engaging” in Paragraph 4 can be replaced by “ ”.

A.attracting B.organizing

C.preparing D.employing

【答案】

【1】B

【2】D

【3】D

【解析】

試題解析:

【1】由第二段“‘What this park will do is to turn Wyong into a tourist destination and bring millions of money into the area.’”可知,他對(duì)即將修建的中國(guó)主題公園很支持。

【2】由第三段“...and a children’s part built for pandas,which won’t have any pandas.”可知,這個(gè)公園包含一個(gè)以熊貓為主題的兒童區(qū)。

【3】由最后一段“...more than a thousand people to work for it and bringing fast development to Wyong...”可推知,此處是說(shuō)雇用1,000多人為其工作。

【題目】Selena Gomez and I are scheduled to meet at a lowkey coffee shop in Encino. Not wanting to keep the superstar waiting, I arrived at nine, 20 minutes early. As I was catching up on emails, Selena quietly scooted into the seat next to me. No bodyguard. Not even a drop of makeup. She was ten minutes early and no one else in the restaurant looked up so much. Selena was wearing Bebe shorts. She had a baby face and ordered a hot chocolate.

After making small talk about what she wore for the shoot, she dived into the subject of her career. Selena declared 2012 the year of movies. She filmed three: Spring Breakers, a drama; The Getaway, an action flick; and Hotel Transylvania, a comedy. Each is a marked move away from the teen style that made her a household name.

Now that her Disney days are behind her, Selena is at that unstable point in a child star's career where she is trying to grow up—both as a person(she turned 20 in July)and as an artist. “Being part of the Disney Channel was such a blessing, and I'm super happy with what my show accomplished, but acting is something I would like to take on more seriously.” She continued, “I don't necessarily feel accomplished. I want to create a whole different person when it comes to acting.”

Selena has been working fulltime since she was seven years old and scored a role on Barney&Friends. In 2007, when she was offered the lead in Wizards of /span>Waverly Place, Selena, her mother, and her stepfather uprooted from Texas to LA , where they are settling now.

【1】When was it that Selena arrived at the lowkey coffee shop?

A．At ten. B．At ten to nine.

C．At ten past nine. D．At thirty past nine.

【2】Which of the following statements is true according to the second paragraph?

A．Selena went into her film career as soon as we met in the coffee shop.

B．Three famous films filmed in 2012 have shown her teen style.

C．The film Hotel Transylvania is an action flick filmed in 2012.

D．Each of the three films marks Selena's move away from her teen style.

【3】What did Selena think of Disney days which were behind her?

A．She thought of playing in Disney a blessing.

B．She didn't feel very satisfied with her show in Disney.

C．She found her not accomplished in her performance in Disney.

D．She believed her being part in Disney Channel a blessing.

【3】The underlined word in the last paragraph probably means “________”．

A．moved B．Picked C．Changed D．informed

Stress sometimes can help push you to make full preparation for a test. However, too much stress can result in anger, depression and other related problems, which we need to take serious.

【題目】閱讀理解。

Every country has its heroes.The heroes are the people the nation and especially the young people admire.If you get a list of the heroes of a nation,it will tell you the potential(潛力) of that nation.

Today in America,if you ask the high school students to list their heroes,their choices would probably fall into three groups.The first group of heroes would be the rock stars—the people connected with rock music.There is no doubt that such people do have talent(才能).But one wonders if one should treat rock stars as a model.The rock stars too often are mixed with drugs and their personal life is not all that good.The rock stars are rich and wear the latest fashion styles.However,one should seek more in a hero than such things as money and good clothes.

A second type of hero for the American youth is the sports star.Again you have a person who has a great ability in one area—sports.However,too often the personal life of the sports star is a bit of disorder.Too frequently drugs and drinking are a part of life of the sports star.

A third type of hero is the TV or movie star.This person may have lots of acting talent and is quite handsome.However,the personal life of too many actors is quite sad and they should not be held up as a model of young people.Today,the rock star,the athlete and the actor all have become the models of the youth in America.Really,do you hear a young person say that his hero is a doctor,a teacher or a scientist?These people are not rich and do not wear fashionable clothes.However,they are talented people who work hard to make the world a better place for everyone.

What is really sad is that the young try to imitate(模仿) their heroes.They like to wear the same clothes and follow their styles.If the heroes of today for the American young people are limited only to rock stars,athletes and actors,the future does not look too bright.

【1】The last sentence of the first paragraph implies that .

A.if a nation has a lot of heroes,it will be strong

B.heroes of a nation will make the nation itself

Health experts have long known that vitamin D is important for healthy bones and teeth. It may also help to protect the body against diseases such as diabetes and cancer. And now, researchers say vitamin D might help fight brain diseases called dementia (癡呆).

Dementia is a brain disease that damages thinking and memory processes, which scientists call “cognitive (認(rèn)知) abilities.” Dementia is difficult to treat. Taking care of someone who has dementia is extremely demanding. And the disease is very frightening to sufferers. Chris Roberts suffers from dementia. He says the worst part of living with this disease was getting lost while driving. “The worst thing that I found was getting lost in the car, not just forgetting where I was going— I wouldn’t know where I was.” More than 47 million people around the world suffer from dementia. The World Health Organization reports that 60 percent of them live in low- and middle-income countries.

We get vitamin D from some foods like nuts, lentils (扁豆) and fatty fish. We also get vitamin D from the sun. But that is not dependable. In some parts of the world, there is not enough sunlight to provide enough vitamin D. Also, sunblock prevents the vitamin from entering the body. To add to the problem, the skin’s ability to process vitamin D weakens as a person ages.

Researchers at Rutgers University in New Jersey are exploring the relationship between vitamin D and dementia. The team recently measured vitamin D levels and cognitive ability in older people. Nutritional sciences professor Joshua Miller led the team. He said cognitive abilities differed among the study subjects. He said tests showed that about 60 percent of the group was low in vitamin D.

【1】Which of the following is true about vitamin D?

A. Vitamin D can decrease people’s risk of heart diseases.

B. Vitamin D helps the body fight against cancer.

C. Vitamin D is mainly obtained from the sun.

D. The need for Vitamin D decreases as people age.

【2】What does the underlined word “demanding” mean in Paragraph 2?

A. Boring but rewarding.

B. Disturbing and frightening.

C. Disgusting and stressful.

D. Hard and tiresome.

【3】What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?

A. How vitamin D affects people’s health.

B. Where people get vitamin D.

C. Whether sunlight can produce vitamin D.

D. Why people’s age influences the production of vitamin D.

【4】Where can we most probably read the passage?

A. In a travel brochure.

B. In a literature magazine.

C. In a science journal.

D. In a commercial advertisement.

【題目】閱讀理解。

When six the very best students from different cities in Guangdong province all together chose universities in Hong Kong; when the very best students of Beijing picked up HK University while giving up the nearby Peking or Tsinghua University; when the highest enrollment （錄�。� rate of Hong Kong Science and Industry University reached 48:1, it’s the high time to ask where the real education heaven for students in China is.

Years ago, the answer certainly would be “Peking or Tsinghua University”. But now no one could give the exact reaction without hesitation. The only sure thing is that HK universities have gradually showed an unusual attraction to a great many mainland students.

It's no doubt to call this HK craze （狂熱）, which is even out of the expectation of those HK universities themselves.

How can HK universities shake the steady foundations of Peking and Tsinghua and attract so many mainland students?

First, Hong Kong universities offer large-amount scholarship, especially for the top students who can receive the sum scholarship as much as 400,000 HK dollars. Since higher education has become a kind of heavy burden of many families, it’s easy to understand why the reaction to the generous offering of HK universities is great.

Second, most HK universities receive professors and students from all over the world and carry out bilingual （雙語(yǔ)） education. This kind of excellent language atmosphere is another attraction for mainland students.

Furthermore, university students in Hong Kong have a better chance to study abroad as exchange students.

Can mainland top universities like Peking or Tsinghua University calm as before when facing the unexpected competition from HK? Will they take relevant measures to win back the top students who once help them set the worldwide reputation? Time will explain it.

The fierce competition brought by HK universities can be a good thing for an entire improvement of education in China．After the awakening and action taking of mainland universities, they can perform better together with HK universities.

At least, it reminded the mainland universities the tuition fees （學(xué)費(fèi)） are among students’ top concern when they are choosing universities. It’s time to move.

【1】What is the passage mainly talking about?

A. Some thought brought by the enrollment of HK universities.

B. Higher education in Hong Kong.

C. The competition between HK University and Peking University.

D. The fall of mainland universities.

【2】Top students from mainland apply for （申請(qǐng)） HK universities because ______.

A. many students now would love to study abroad to get a better experience

B. they concern only about the tuition fees when choosing universities

C. HK universities offer higher scholarship, better environment and more opportunities for their further study

D. Peking university has lost its worldwide reputation

【3】From the passage we can see HK universities _______.

A. didn’t mean to enroll top students from mainland

B. didn’t expect their enrollment of mainland students would be so popular

C. have strict enrollment rules and only 1 out of 48 students can get the chance to study there

D. are proud of their teaching staff and facilities

【4】What does the author mean by saying “It’s time to move” in the last paragraph?

A. Mainland universities should take measures as soon as possible to attract students.

B. The opportunities come for top students to study abroad.

C. Mainland universities should make full preparations to challenge HK universities.

D. Top students should be offered further education free of charge.
