A poem starts with a thought, an idea, or an emotion felt from the heart.Poems can be happy or sad, deep-thinking or even humorous.The choice is up to you and your imagination as to what you will create.

Your first step is to write down the idea or thought that you have and you want to turn into a poem.Next, you should turn the thought into a free verse(自由詩(shī)體)poem.Free verse poems are much easier to write as there are no steadfast rules to write them.Some free verse doesn’t even have any rhyme or meter.

Now, rewrite your thoughts into lines.Now is the time to look at your lines and remember that the poem should have a beginning, a middle, and an end, just like a story, a book, or a movie.

Reread your poem several times and listen to the words and to the rhythm of each line.Now is the time to shorten or lengthen each line in order to create a smooth-sounding poem.Even though it is a free verse poem, you can choose to make each line rhyme with the next line if you want to.

Now go back and reread your poem again. Check for proper punctuation(標(biāo)點(diǎn))as well as for the proper spelling of each word. Think up a suitable title for your poem. It would be a good idea to set your poem aside for a while and then return to it later.

Then, reread it again with a fresh mind and make some necessary changes.

If you decided to continue writing poetry, it would be a good idea to investigate(研究) some books about creating poetry, and to attend some local workshops. Check out the available resources on the Internet as well as what is available at your local public library.

Liverpool, my hometown, is a special city. It is so unique that in 2004 it became a World Heritage(遺產(chǎn))Site.

I recently returned to my home city and my first stop was at a museum on the River Mersey. Blanketed in mist(薄霧),Victorian architecture rose from the banks of the river, responded to the sounds of sea-birds, and appeared unbelievably charming. When I headed toward the centre, I found myself surrounded by buildings that mirror the best palaces of Europe. It is not hard to imagine why, on first seeing the city, most visitors would be overpowered by the beauty of the noble buildings, which are solid signs of Liverpool’s history.

As if to stress its cultural role, Liverpool has more museums and galleries than most cities in Britain. At Walker Art Gallery, I was told that it has the best collections of Victorian paintings in the world, and is the home of modern art in the north of England. However, culture is more than galleries. Liverpool offers many music events. As Britain’s No. 1 music city, it has the biggest city music festival in Europe, and its musicians are famous all over the world. Liverpool is also well-known for its football and other sports events. Every year, the Mersey River Festival attracts thousands of visitors, making the city a place of wonder.

As you would expect from such a city, there are restaurants serving food from around the world. When my trip was about to complete, I chose to rest my legs in Liverpool’s famous Philharmonic pub(酒館). It is a monument to perfection, and a heritage attraction itself.

Being a World Heritage Site, my home city is certainly a place of “outstanding universal value”. It is a treasure house with plenty of secrets for the world to explore.

1.Visitors who see the city for the first time would be deeply impressed by__________.

A. its charming banks B. its famous museums

C. its wonderful palaces D. its attractive buildings

2.Liverpool has important cultural role because __________.

A. it has the best collections of Victorian paintings

B. it has museums, galleries, music festival and sports events

C. the Mersey River Festival attracts thousands of visitors

D. the best palaces of Europe are in Liverpool

3.The author uses the Philharmonic pub to prove that__________.

A. Liverpool is a well-known city for its restaurants

B. Liverpool is an impressive place full of attraction

C. a pub is a wonderful place for visitors to relax themselves

D. a pub is a perfect choice for visitors to complete their journey

科目:高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源:湖南省五市十校教研教改共同體2016-2017學(xué)年高二下學(xué)期期末考試英語(yǔ)試卷 題型:閱讀理解

Are billionaires good with exams as well as their money? Or are they more likely to have escaped school at the first opportunity and worked their way up to make their fortunes?

A study of the educational background of some of the world’s wealthiest people shows that they are much more likely to have gone to university, and they are more likely to have a postgraduate degree(碩士或博士研究生學(xué)位) than no degree at all.

It doesn’t give much support for the image of self-taught entrepreneurs (企業(yè)家), who rely on their own wisdom rather than higher education.

The study, by insurance company GoCompare, examined the educational background of people appearing in the top 1 00 billionaire lists by Forbes magazine over the past 20 years.

It shows that 76 percent of these billionaires have a degree. Forty-seven percent of them have a bachelor’s (學(xué)士) degree, 23 percent a master’s (文/理科碩士) degree and 6 percent a doctorate(博士學(xué)位). The most popular subjects were the ones related to economics and engineering. There were many more studying sciences than arts.

The school attended by the global super rich are also much more likely to be world-class universities, rather than local ones. Harvard University is the single most likely name to be found on the resume(履歷) of a billionaire, though one of the most famous names on the rich list, Bill Gates, dropped out of Harvard before finishing.

Stanford University in California and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have become the launchpads for a rising number of tech billionaires. Google’s co-founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin were both postgraduates at Stanford. Borthers Charles and David Koch, who are among the world’s biggest oil tycoons, both got their bachelor’s and master’s degrees from MIT.

Among U.K. universities, the London School of Economics and Political Science and the University of Cambridge have the most multi-billionaires on the Forbes list, while Oxford has produced Rupert Murdoch.

1.The study has found all of the following EXCEPT .

A. most billionaires are not self-taught geniuses

B. billionaires are much more likely to have received higher education

C. nearly half of those on Forbes’ top 100 billionaire lists have a bachelor’s degree

D. there are more billionaires without degree at all than those with a master’s degree

2.Of the following subjects, what is the most likely to have been a college major of a billionaire?

A. Computer science. B. Art history.

C. English literature. D. Law.

3.What does the underlined word “launchpads” in Paragraph 7 mean?

A. Favorite places of famous people.

B. Effective starting points for a career.

C. Places on the Internet that help you find information.

D. Places where rockets and other spacecraft are sent into space.

4.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the article?

A. The study was carried out by Forbes magazine.

B. A high percentage of the world’s richest people have a doctorate.

C. Rupert Murdoch went to the London School of Economics and Political Science.

D. Harvard University has produced more billionaires on the Forbes list than any other university.

It’s easy to observe an athlete like Tiger Woods and feel like he’s from another planet. He has won 14 major tournament(錦標(biāo)賽) titles and about $122 million in prize money and ads. He also has a happy family. It seems that he is too perfect to be one of us. But Woods has more in common with you than you might think.

Woods’ parents — particularly his father — set high expectations for him when he was a child. Before Earl Woods’ death in 2006, he told Golf magazine, “My purpose in raising Tiger was not to raise a golfer. I wanted to raise a good person.”

By age two, Woods was already swinging(揮舞) a golf club. But once he entered school, Woods’ father was careful to send the message that school work came first. Woods wasn’t allowed to practice until his homework was done.

When Woods finally reached the professional tour, his father continued to expect a lot of him. “Tiger will do more than any other man in history to change the course of human. The world is just getting a taste of his power,” he said in 1996. Clearly, Earl Woods had great expectations of his son.

In this way, Tiger Woods is actually like a lot of us. Many of us feel a similar pressure to make our parents proud. When this happens, it’s easy to let that pressure overwhelm(壓倒) us.

In a perfect world, we would all grow up to be Tiger Woods-like successes in our own fields. But that isn’t possible. There are many things that we can’t control in this life, despite our best efforts.

There is, however, one thing that we can do: we can try to be a “good person”, as Earl Woods asked his son to do.

1.Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the first paragraph?

A. The number of tournament titles Tiger Woods has won.

B. The family members of Tiger Woods.

C. The money Tiger Woods has made in prize money and ads.

D. The impression that Tiger Woods leaves on us.

2.According to the passage, which of the following statements about Tiger Woods is TRUE?

A. Tiger Woods is too perfect to be one of us.

B. Tiger Woods wasn’t allowed to play golf after class.

C. Tiger Woods did very well in golf as a child.

D. Tiger Woods didn’t like playing golf when he was a child.

3.We can learn from the passage that Tiger Woods is under pressure to ____ just like many of us.

A. get high marks in the exam B. make his parents proud

C. change the course of human D. try to be a good person

4.We can infer from the passage that ______.

A. Tiger Woods has a happy family

B. Tiger Woods’ mother didn’t set high expectations for him

C. Tiger Woods has changed the course of human

D. Tiger Woods’ father plays an important role on his road to success

“Regardless of social class, race and age, men say they hate to shop,” says Zukin, City University of New York sociology professor. “Yet when you ask them deeper questions, it turns out that they like to shop. Men generally like to shop for books, music and hardware. But if you ask them about the shopping they do for books or music, they'll say, ‘Well, that's not shopping. That's research.’”

In other words, what men and women call “buying things” and how they approach that task are different.

Women will wander through several 1,000?square?metre stores in search of the perfect party dress. Men will wander through 100 Internet sites in search of the perfect digital camcorder. Women see shopping as a social event. Men see it as a special task or a game to be won.

“Men are frequently shopping to win,” says Ann, a marketing professor at Loyola University of Chicago. “They want to get the best deal. They want to get the best and latest one and if they do that, it makes them happy. When women shop, they're doing it in a way that they want everybody to be very happy,” says Ann. “They're kind of shopping for love.”

“Teenage girls learn to shop from their mums and elder sisters, and they also learn to shop by examining articles in magazines like Seventeen,” Zukin says. “And although men's magazines such as GQ and Esquire have long had shopping articles, it's TV that has the eye of young male shoppers,” say Ann and Zukin.

“Television shows are used by young men in the same way Seventeen or Lucky is used by girls,” says Zukin, “to help make clothing and toiletry choices.”

“Of course, there are men who love to shop and are proud of it,” Ann says. And that is important no matter whether you buy a car or a frying pan. All men love to buy but don't want to get cheated. Ann adds, “There actually are men who are interested, for example, in cooking or shopping or chinaware or things around the home—they become kind of girl magnets. Women like it.”

1.From the first paragraph we can find that .

A. men are all dishonest B. men like to shop in fact

C. men hate to shop actually D. men are all book?lovers

2.Compared to women, men usually treat shopping .

A. honestly B. frequently

C. seriously D. foolishly

3.As is shown in this passage, teenage girls go shopping .

A. only with their sisters B. often following magazines

C. only with their mums D. often following TV shows

4.The underlined word “magnets” in the last paragraph means “ ”.

A. vegetables that make women beautiful

B. magazines that attract young women

C. persons that have a powerful attraction

D. tools that can help housewives much

THIS is an adapted excerpt(摘錄)from Eman Mohammed’s speech at TED (Technology, Entertainment and Design), a non-profit conference, in 2014. She is one of the few female photo journalists in the Gaza Strip(加沙地帶).

When I was 19, I started my career as the first female photojournalist in the Gaza Strip, Palestine. My work as a woman photographer was considered a serious insult(侮辱)to local traditions. The male-dominated profession made me feel unwelcome by all possible means. They made it clear that a woman must not do a man’s job. Photo agencies in Gaza refused to train me.

Three of my colleagues went as far as to drive me to an open air strike area where explosions were the only thing I could hear. Dust was flying in the air, and the ground was shaking beneath me. I only realized we weren’t there to document the event when the three of them got back into the armored(裝甲的)Jeep and drove away, waving and laughing. Leaving me behind in the open air strike zone.

For a moment, I felt terrified, humiliated, and sorry for myself.

I started paying closer attention to women’s lives in Gaza. Because I am a woman, I could go where my colleagues were forbidden to go. Beyond the obvious pain and struggle, there were healthy amounts of laughter and accomplishments.

In front of a police compound in Gaza City during the first war in Gaza, an Israeli air raid(襲擊)destroyed the compound and broke my nose. For a moment, all I saw was bright white. I thought I had either gone blind or I was in heaven. By the time I managed to open my eyes, I had documented this moment.

Mohammed Khader is a Palestinian worker who spent two decades in Israel. As his retirement plan, he decided to build a four-floor house. By just the first field operation(軍事行動(dòng))in his neighborhood, the house had been flattened. Nothing was left but the pigeons he raised and a bathtub. Mohammed put the bathtub on the top of the rubble(瓦礫)and started giving his kids a bobble bath every morning.

My work is not meant to hide the scars of war, but to show the full unseen stories of Gazans. As a Palestinian female photographer, the journey of struggle, survival and everyday life has inspired me to overcome the community taboo(禁忌)and see a different side of war and its aftermath(災(zāi)禍). I became a witness with a choice: to run away or stand still.

1.The author couldn’t work with her colleagues in the Gaza Strip because _______.

A. she hadn’t received the training offered by the photo agency there

B. the local traditions didn’t allow a woman to do a man’s job

C. her colleagues were going to take part in the battle

D. she was terrified of explosions in the air strike area

2.The author used Mohammed Khader as an example to ______.

A. prove there was pain as well as laughter during the war

B. show how dangerous the surroundings were in Gaza

C. show that she could document common people’s lives at the war

D. let the reader know how the war influenced her life

3.From the story, it can be inferred that ________.

A. the author wouldn’t like to reveal the cruel side of war

B. the author eventually had to leave Gaza because of the community taboo

C. the author decided to document more unseen scenes from the war

D. the author was determined to run away from the explosions in the end

4.The best title of the passage is _____.

A. An Insult To Local Traditions B. Run away or Stand Still

C. Laughter During the War D. Do Women’s Work
