Hello, Chicago. If there is anyone out there who still doubts that America is a place where all things are possible, who still wonders if the dream of our founders is alive in our time, who still questions the power of our democracy(民主)，tonight is your answer.

  ……

  I was never the likeliest candidate for this office. We didn’t start with much money or many endorsements. Our campaign was not hatched in the halls of Washington. It began in the backyards of Des Moines and the living rooms of Concord and the front porches of Charleston. It was built by working men and women who dug into what little savings they had to give $ 5 and $ 10 and $ 20 to the cause.

  It grew strength from the young people who rejected the myth of their generation’s apathy(冷漠), who left their homes and their families for jobs that offered little pay and less sleep.

  It drew strength from the not-so-young people who braved the bitter cold and scorching heat to knock on doors of perfect strangers, and from the millions of Americans who volunteered and organized and proved that more than two centuries later a government of the people, by the people, and for the people has not perished(消失)from the Earth.

  This is your victory.

  And I know you didn’t do this just to win an election. And I know you didn’t do it for me.

  You did it because you understand the enormity of the task that lies ahead. For even as we celebrate tonight, we know the challenges that tomorrow will bring are the greatest of our lifetime—two wars, a planet in peril(危亡), the worst financial crisis in a century.

  Even as we stand here tonight, we know there are brave Americans waking up in the deserts of Iraq and the mountains of Afghanistan to risk their lives for us.

  ……

  The road ahead will be long. Our climb will be steep. We may not get there in one year or even in one term. But, America, I have never been more hopeful than I am tonight that we will get there.

  I promise you, we as a people will get there.

This passage is most probably taken from a (an)_______.

   A. report        B. lecture      C. speech        D. announcement

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2012-2013學(xué)年山東省高三下學(xué)期第二次模擬考試英語(yǔ)試卷（解析版） 題型：其他題

閱讀下面短文，并根據(jù)短文后的要求答題（請(qǐng)注意問(wèn)題后面的字?jǐn)?shù)要求）。

［1］Why not take a more measured approach to a happier, healthier you? From your office to your bedroom to your car, these small changes can have a big impact on your life.

［2］Wake up ten minutes earlier. When you start your morning in a hurry, you set a stressful tone for the day. (I’m speaking from experience here.) Even ten extra minutes in the morning can help you feel more calm, collected, and ready to face the day.

［3］Spend five minutes in silence or meditation. You’ll soon realize, whether it’s in the morning or evening, that five minutes of sitting quietly with your eyes closed feels a lot longer than five minutes. But just this short silence can foster a quietness that carries through the day. When things go off the rails, simply close your eyes and recall that earlier quietness.

［4］Walk. Is there one trip you’d normally make in the car (to work, the gym, the store) that you can make on foot? Walking saves money (good for you) and gas (good for the environment) and burns calories (around 2,000 steps equal one mile), which is good for your health.

［5］Tell someone you love them. Life is never long enough to say this as many times as it should be said. Whether your mother, a friend, a significant other, or your dog, make it a habit to tell someone at least once a day that you love him or her. While it may feel strange at first, you will never regret it.

［6］Stand (or sit) up straight. Good posture prevents back and neck pain and even build confidence. When driving, tilt your rearview mirror（后視鏡）up a bit. You’ll have to sit up to see. At your desk, the top of your computer screen should be at eye level. Put a small cushion in the curve of your lower back, and your spine will become straight.

1.What does the text mainly talk about? (No more than 10 words )

_____________________________________________________________________

2.Why is getting up ten minutes earlier in the morning suggested? (No more than 16 words )

_____________________________________________________________________

3.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 stand for ?

_____________________________________________________________________

4.How can walking benefit people and the environment? (No more than 9 words)

_____________________________________________________________________

5.For what purpose should we stand or sit straight? (No more than 10 words)

_____________________________________________________________________

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2013屆湖南省株洲市高二上學(xué)期期末考試英語(yǔ)試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

MY Chinese friend is going to the US and he is nervous about what to talk about. “Talk about the weather,” is my advice.

“How are you?” is often followed by comments about the weather. “Nice day today.” “Cold/hot enough for you?” “Will it ever stop raining?” “Some winter we’re having.” “Can’t remember a winter/summer so cold/hot.” “Whew, it’s hot out there.”

These introductory statements are often followed by a long conversation entirely about weather conditions. Past, present and – with global warming – speculation (推測(cè)) about the future.

Our fascination with weather might seem silly, but the real purpose behind those endless discussions is small talk. Weather’s a safe topic of conversation. As a group, we Americans seem to enjoy chatting with those around us. Whenever we stand in line at the grocery store, we tend to engage in this sort of conversation with other people standing in line with us. If I were seated next to another American on any form of public transport, I’d expect both of us to make some harmless comment about the weather as a way of acknowledging (承認(rèn)) each other’s presence (存在). At parties, the weather is a common topic, especially with those you are meeting for the first time.

In contrast we are taught to avoid certain topics like religion and politics. Weather is neutral (中性的); you don’t have to have an opinion about it, just make a statement of a fact. What is truly interesting is the fact that we can go on and on about it.

My Chinese friend has a hard time understanding why we put so much effort into this topic – and why I warn him about bringing up much more “interesting” subjects like salaries or how much something costs.

Sometimes it is tricky (復(fù)雜的) to wend (行走) one’s way through winding cultural roads, especially those that are never taught in books.

1.What does the writer suggest her Chinese friend should talk about with people in the US? (No more than two words)

2.Why do Americans enjoy talking to people around them about the weather, in writer’s opinion? (No more than ten words)

3.List four topics that people should avoid talking about in the US. ( No more than 5 words)

完形填空（共15小題；每小題2分，滿分30分）

閱讀下面短文，掌握其大意，然后從下列各題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)，并在答題卡上將該項(xiàng)涂黑。

The human nose is an underestimated tool. Humans are often thought to be  1___ smellers compared with animals, but this is largely because, unlike animals, we stand upright. This means that our noses are  2  to detecting those smells which float through the air,  3  the majority of smells which stick to surfaces. In fact though, we are extremely sensitive to smells, even if we do not generally realize it. Our noses are capable of  4  human smells even when these are  5  to far below one part in one million.

　　  6     , some people find that they can smell one type of flower but not another, while others are sensitive to the smells of both flowers. This may be because some people do not have the genes necessary to generate  7     smell receptors in the nose. These receptors are the cells which sense smells and send  8    to the brain. However, it has been found that even people insensitive to a certain smell at first can suddenly become sensitive to it when  9     to it often enough.

　　The  10   for insensitivity to smell seems to be that brain finds it  11    to keep all smell receptors working all the time but can  12   new receptors if necessary. This may also explain why we are not usually sensitive to our own smells we simply do not need to be. We are not  13     of the usual smell of our own house but we  14     new smells when we visit someone else's. The brain finds it best to keep smell receptors _ 15    for unfamiliar and emergency signals such as the smell of smoke, which might indicate the danger of fire.
