21、If you enjoy American stories, you’ll have noticed that many of them take place on the road. Many famous American novels are about stories that occur while their characters are traveling along highways. These novels are often celebrations of American life.
Jesmyn Ward’s National Book Award winner Sing, Unburied, Sing is a road novel, but not a celebration. The road journey here is through Mississippi, as an African-American mother and her two children travel to collect her white husband as he’s released from jail.
Neither the mother, Leonie, nor the father, Michael, are ideal parents. Leonie in particular is so full of anger and regret that she takes out her unhappiness on her children, the 13-year-old Jojo and his little sister Kayla.
The telling of the story is divided between various narrators. Jojo, the boy, is the most sympathetic of them. But it is worrying to read about how he experiences the world. Even though he’s young, he’s already experienced the dark side of life. The opening sentence of the book gives a sense of Jojo’s unnatural maturity—“I like to think I know what death is. I like to think that I could look at it straight.”
But who, or what, is to blame for these sad circumstances? For Ward, it’s clearly the past. She admires the work of fellow novelist William Faulkner. When she thinks about the past, she’s of the same mind as him.
Faulkner famously wrote, “The past is never dead. It’s not even past.” At one point, Ward says that her characters are “pulling the past with them.” like a too-heavy trailer(拖车) coupled to the car, as they journey on through Mississippi to the jailhouse. The biggest part of this past, of course, is racism—the remains of slavery—which is always there, and ruining life.
This is probably why The Washington Post listed Sing, Unburied, Sing as one of its 10 choices of 2017’s Best Books. “The misery of this one family is tied to crimes that stretch over decades,” wrote the newspaper.
【1】What can we learn about Sing, Unburied, Sing from the text?
A．It was recently adapted as a film.
B．It’s a celebration of American life.
C．It is a story of a road trip through Mississippi.
D．It’s one of 2017’s best-selling American novels.
【2】According to the text, the character Jojo .
A．is the main narrator of the novel
B．is unusually mature for his age
C．presents less sympathy than others
D．is the youngest child in the family
【3】What is the root cause of the family’s difficulty according to the text?
A．The unhappy marriage of the parents.
B．The experience of being in prison.
C．The lack of financial support.
D．The existence of racism.
【4】Why is William Faulkner’s line mentioned in the text?
A．To prove Ward shares a similar opinion of the past with him.
B．To show Ward has drawn a lot of inspiration from him.
C．To show Ward is as great a novelist as he is.
D．To compare Ward’s writing style with his.
22、（重庆一中2016届高三5月模拟）For more than twenty years scientists have been searching for signs of life on other planets. Most of these searches have been done over the radio. The hope is that someone in outer space may be trying to get in touch with us. Scientists also have sent radio and television messages on spaceships traveling through space, on the chance that someone may be receptive to such messages.
Scientists are using powerful radio telescopes to listen to signals from about 1, 000 stars, all within 100 light years of earth. In addition, they will scan the entire sky to “listen” for radio messages from more distant stars. Using a computer, they will be able to monitor more than eight channels at one time. Scientists are looking for any signal they stands out from the background noise.
Of the 200 billion stars in the Milky Way galaxy, scientists find that five percent are like our sun. Perhaps half of them have a planet like earth. Such a planet would be a reasonable distance from the star for temperatures to be right for the evolution of life. Based on the inhabitable（that can be lived in）planets in our galaxy, most scientists agree that chances are likely that one or more of these planets support some life.
However, many scientists wonder whether intelligent life exists on other planets. Some believe that twenty years of searching without any intelligible messages shows that no one is out there. They say that the evolution of intelligence comparable to ours is unlikely.
Other scientists believe that our search hasn’t been long enough to rule out the possibility that intelligent life exists in our galaxy. Although our sun family is only about five billion years old, our galaxy is about 20 billion years old. In that time, some scientists think it is likely that civilization much more advanced than ours have developed. Perhaps these civilizations send us no signals; perhaps we have not recognized the signals they have sent us. If we hope to find intelligent life, these scientists believe that we have to keep looking.
【1】According to the passage, how many planets in our galaxy might be inhabitable?
A. 5 billion． B. 10 billion.
C. 15 billion. D. 200 billion
【2】The first paragraph in this passage is mainly about ________ .
A. how scientists are looking for signs of life on other planets
B. why scientists are looking for signs of life on other planets
C. where scientists are looking for signs of life on other planets
D. when scientists are looking for signs of life on other planets
【3】The underlined word “monitor” in the passage means“ ________ ”.
A. find B. imitate
C. check D. form
【4】Which of these statements is true based on the information in the passage?
A. The earth is one of the oldest planets in our galaxy.
B. Most scientists believe that there is intelligent life on other planets.
C. Scientists are trying different ways to find signs of life on other planets.
D. Scientists don’t believe that there might be life on other planets.
23、A team of conservationists (环境保护主义者)captured 14 Loa water frogs earlier this month in northern Chile, a wildlife group reported.
The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) lists the Loa water frog as "critically endangered'. The not-for-profit Global Wildlife Conservation group said the 14 frogs were in poor condition when they were discovered in late June. The animals were small and struggling because of a lack of food and water.
The Loa water frogs are known to live only in a single body of water near Calama, in Chile. The city sits in the middle of the Atacama Desert, where water is in great demand.
There was little water in the area where the frogs were found, the conservation group reported. The frogs' environment had mostly dried up because water is being taken away and used for human activities, the group said. The activities include mining, agriculture and land development. "All of the frogs had been pushed into a tiny pool of muddy water, the organization said. "The team collected the last 14 individuals and brought them to the National Zoo of Chile to start a conservation breeding program. "
Zoo specialists are closely watching the small creatures and trying to give them everything they need to survive and be healthy. Conservation groups have called on Chile's government to take steps to halt any illegal water usage that threatens the frogs' natural environment. They would also like to see creation of a government-supported shelter to protect the animals.
Jon Paul Rodriguez heads the IUCN's Species Survival Commission. He suggested that an emergency plan be developed to prepare the Calama area for the frogs' return.
"We need to work very hard to restore their environment because it's pointless to breed them if they don't have a home to go back to in the wild," Rodriguez said.
【1】What do we know about the frogs when they were rescued?
A．They were looking for food.
B．They were in good condition.
C．They were approaching death.
D．They were moving for new water source.
【2】What has made these frogs endangered?
A．Lack of water.
B．Water pollution.
C．Human hunting.
D．Extreme climate.
【3】What does the underlined word 'halt" in Paragraph 5 mean?
A．Improve.
B．Increase.
C．Change.
D．Stop.
【4】What did Jon Paul Rodriguez suggest humans do for these frogs?
A．Keep them healthy.
B．Recover their home.
C．Raise them in the shelter.
D．Prevent them living in the wild.
24、An earthquake is one of the most common natural disasters. It may cause great damage. So it is wise to learn some simple safety tips to protect yourself or your family members.
Fragile items, like those made of glass should usually be placed on a lower surface, near the ground instead of placing them on cupboards higher up. Never place them near your bed, sofas and other furniture where you would be sitting or lying down. When there is a strong movement, these pieces will fall on the floor directly and not on you.
There is a strong chance of short circuits (短路) and fire breakouts during an earthquake. Make sure you turn off electrical connections and gas immediately when an earthquake happens.
During an earthquake, lie beneath an object that is not easily damaged. Do not go near objects that could directly fall on you. Never use the elevator to go down. Stay inside until the shaking stops and it is safe to go outside. Research has shown that most injures happen when people inside buildings try to go out. Use the staircases at all times.
If you are outdoors, do not take shelter under a tree, streetlights, electric poles or tall buildings. If you are driving, stop your car and stay in a safe place. Do not park your car under a tree or any tall object.
If trapped in debris (瓦砾堆), cover your mouth with a handkerchief or clothing. Tap on a pipe or wall so rescuers can find you. Use a whistle (哨子) if it is available. Never shout for help. Shouting can cause you to breathe in dangerous amounts of dust. Do not light a match because you may burn yourself. Do not move about or kick up dust.
【1】The underlined word “Fragile” in Paragraph 2 probably means “________”.
A．easily broken
B．easily found
C．expensive
D．heavy
【2】To reduce the injury from the earthquake, items made of glass should be put ________.
A．on cupboards
B．in the bedroom
C．on a lower surface
D．where children can’t reach them
【3】During an earthquake, people are advised to ________.
A．go out of the building at once
B．turn off power and gas immediately
C．take shelter under a tree
D．drive to a safe place
【4】The purpose of the passage is to tell readers ________.
A．the damage caused by earthquakes
B．the rescue work after earthquakes
C．what to do during earthquakes
D．how to prevent earthquakes

26、阅读下面材料, 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
A Writing Task
The summer vacation was over, so Tim and his classmates came back to school happily.
On the first day of school, Mrs Green, Tim’s English teacher, gave the class a writing task. “Boys and girls, today’s homework is to write something in some way that is related to your summer vacation, ”she said. “Be as creative as you can. But” the teacher added, “make sure you use proper spelling and grammar. ”
That night, Tim sat at his desk and decided to go about this writing homework. He stared at the blank sheet paper for quite a few minutes, thinking what to write about. To tell the truth, this time, he didn’t want to write about his summer vacation as usual. What could he write about, except a dog, a water park, a visit to his grandma with his father, two weeks of camp, and …?Boring … He’d actually been happy to get back to school. But he made up his mind to write what he really wanted. It was not an essay(短文) at all but a short story, a science fiction(科幻小说). It was about a distant planet that didn’t have summer — it was spring all the time. And it didn’t have vacation either. The aliens(外星人) on the planet worked 24 hours a day. They wished they had vacations one day.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
