“Look, it’s Baldy!” A boy shouted in my direction across the playground. Even though I was

used to regular insults（侮辱）because of the   41   on my head, it was   42   horrible to hear. I sighed as I headed back to the class.

         When I was just 20 months old, I suffered serious   43   after a bowl full of hot oil fell on my head. I was   44   to hospital and had to stay there for weeks while the doctors   45   to save my life. “Holly’s very   46   to be alive,” they told Mum and Dad. “But she’ll be   47   with scars on her head, and of course her hair won’t grow there.”

         As a child, I cared much about my scars, so I   48   wore a scarf to cover them up when I left home.   49   I didn’t, people would call me horrible names like Baldy. Although my friends were always comforting me, they never   50   understood how it felt.

         Then through the hospital I was   51   to a children’s burns camp, where children like me can get any help. There I   52   14-year-old Stephanie, whose burns are a lot more serious than mine. But she is so  53   that she never lets anyone put her down. “You shouldn’t   54   what people say about what you look like because we’re not different from anyone else, Holly, ”  She   55   me. “And you don’t need to wear a scarf because you look great   56   it!” For the first time in my life I could speak to someone who’d been through something   57   . So weeks later, at my 13th birthday party,   58   by her bravery, I gave up my scarf and showed off my scars. It felt amazing not having to   59   away behind my scarf.

The average person learns most of the 30 000～40 000 words whose meanings he or she recognizes by hearing them or getting familiar with them in the context or simply absorbing them without conscious(意識(shí)到的) effort. The best way to build a good vocabulary, therefore, is to read a great deal and to participate in a lot of good talks. There are relatively few words that we learn permanently(永久的)by purposefully referring to dictionaries or keeping word lists. However, even those extra few are of value, and no one will make a mistake by working on developing a larger vocabulary. Here are some suggestions of how to do it.

Read plenty of good books. When you come across a new word, or a new meaning of an old word, stop and see if you can understand it from its context. If you can't, and if you can manage without interrupting the thought of the book too much, look it up in a dictionary or ask somebody and then repeat its meaning to yourself a couple of times. If you are really conscientious(認(rèn)真的), write the word and its meaning in a personal vocabulary list — preferably using it in a sentence, or you can keep a special vocabulary notebook. Go over the list from time to time. Further, try to use a new word in writing or conversation a few times over the next several days.

Listen to good talks and be alert to new words you hear or to new meanings of words you already know. Then treat them just as you treat the new words you read.

Learn and be alert to the parts of words: prefixes, suffixes and roots. Knowing them enables you to make intelligent guesses about the meaning of words.

If you are studying a foreign language, be alert to words in that language which relate to words in English. English has inherited(繼承) or borrowed much of its vocabulary of 500 000～600 000 words from Latin, Greek, French, Spanish and German.

When you meet a new word in reading, what should you do?

A. Guess its meaning.                           B. Ask somebody.

C. Look it up in a dictionary.                     D. All of the above.

According to this passage, the best way to build a good vocabulary is _______.

A. to remember a lot                              B. to read a great deal

C. to take part in a lot of good talks            D. both B and C

The phrase “be alert to” in the third paragraph may best be replaced by “_______”.

A. look at                                        B. pay attention to 

C. write down                                  D. learn by heart

In the fourth paragraph, the word “them” refers to _______.

A. the parts of words            B. prefixes    C. suffixes                         D. roots

“It hurts me more than you” and “This is for your own good” — these are the statements my mother used to make years ago when I had to learn Latin, clean my room, stay home and do homework.
That was before we entered the permissive period in education in which we decided it was all right not to push our children to achieve their best in school. The schools and the educators made it easy for us. They taught that it as all right to be parents who take a let-alone policy. We stopped making our children do homework. We gave them calculators, turned on the television, left the teaching to the teachers and went on vacation.
Now teachers, faced with children who have been developing at their own pace for the past 15 years, are realizing we’ve made a terrible mistake. One such teacher is Sharon Klompus who speaks of her students “so passive” and wonders what has happened. Nothing is demanded of them, she believes. Television, says Klompus, contributes to children’s passivity. “We’re talking about a generation of kids who've never been hurt or hungry. They have learned somebody will always do it for them, instead of saying  'go and look it up’, you tell them the answer. It takes greater energy to say no to a kid.”
Yes, it does. It takes energy and it takes work. It’s time for parents to end their vacation and come back to work. It's time to take the car away, to turn the TV off, to tell them it hurts you more than them but it's for their own good. It's time to start telling them no again.
【小題1】Children are becoming more inactive in study because _______.

A．they watch TV too oftenB．they have done too much homework
C．they have to fulfill too many dutiesD．teachers are too strict with them
【小題2】By “permissive period in education” (L.1, Para. 2) the author means a time _______.
A．when everything can be taught at school
B．when every child can be educated
C．when children are permitted to receive education
D．when children are allowed to do what they wish to
【小題3】The main idea of the passage is that _______.
A．parents should leave their children alone
B．kids should have more activities at school
C．it's time to be more strict with our kids
D．parents should always set a good example to their kids

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2015屆江蘇省高一10月階段性檢測(cè)英語(yǔ)試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

Why is a full moon, yellower and bigger when it is coming up than when it is higher in the sky?

That's a good question about something that we all can see. Let's talk about the moon's color first.

We see the moon only because of the sunlight that falls on it and is reflected. Actually, the moon is not a very good reflector, because its surface is all rocks and dirt. We see it in almost its true color when it is high in the sky.

When the moon first comes up, its light reaches our eyes after an extra-long path through the atmosphere (大氣). There are lots of particles (微粒) scattering (分散) light in that long path. Blue light is scattered more than other colors, which means that it doesn't reach your eyes. The light that is left over looks yellow to your eye.

Now about the other question—why the moon seems to change in size. That's more complicated. It's not an effect of the atmosphere, the way color is; it's not caused by something fooling your eyes. It seems, instead, to be caused by something that fools your brain—an illusion(錯(cuò)覺(jué)).

Here's a drawing that creates an illusion. The two cones(圓錐體) are really the same size. But the rest of the drawing makes the right-hand cone seem farther away. Your brain knows that faraway objects are really larger than they look. It decides that the right-hand cone must be larger because it seems to be farther away.

Similarly, when you see the moon just come up over a line of trees or houses—or whatever makes the horizon(地平線)—it may be that your brain decides that the moon must be larger because it seems to be farther away.

1.The moon doesn't reflect the sunlight very well because________________.

A．it is high in the sky                       B．its surface is rough

C．its surface is white                       D．it isn't a good reflector

2.Which statement is true according to the passage?

A．In the course of its rising, the moon is getting smaller and smaller

B．The size of the moon is more complicated than its color

C．The atmosphere has the same effect on the moon's size as on its color

D．The change in the moon's size is caused by an illusion while that in its color is caused by the atmosphere

3.After reading this passage, you can possibly answer one of the following questions. Which one? ______.

A．Why is the sun bigger when it rises over the horizon?

B．Why does the sun look bigger when it rises over the horizon?

C．Why does the sun look golden?

D．Why does the sun rise in the east?

4.Who do you think probably wrote this passage?________.

A．A novelist                             B．A reporter

C．A science editor                        D．An English teacher．

第二部分：閱讀理解（共25小題，每題2分，滿分50分）

第一節(jié)選擇題（共20小題，每題2分，滿分40分）

閱讀下列短文，從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)（A、B、C和D）中，選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

Getting around in Canada is fairly easy. Most cities have urban transportation systems, including buses, streetcars, and trains, and some of the larger cities also have subways. You can board these systems at regular stops along their routes. Some let you pay with cash while others require tickets. If you don’t have a ticket for the bus, you must pay with the correct amount of money. This is because the driver does not carry any change. If you plan to stay in a city for a long time, you may want to buy a monthly pass or a package of tickets to save money. You can buy subway tickets at any subway station.

If you have to take several buses or subways for a single trip, you do not need to pay money each time. Simply ask the driver for a transfer (換乘) ticket, or take one from the machines on the subway platform.

If you are not sure where to board the bus or the streetcar, just ask someone or follow the crowd. People can usually only board at the front of the bus where you show your pass to the driver. When using public transportation, Canadians line up. First come, first serve, is a common approach to many activities in Canada, and it is considered to be extremely rude to cut in any line.

Maps of routes and schedules are usually available from the public transit (運(yùn)輸) company in your area, and there is also a telephone information line. You may ask someone for the name of the transit company in your area, and then look it up in the telephone book.

46. What is this passage mainly about?

A. How to use public transportation in Canada.

B. How to save money when traveling.

C. Where to find subways in larger cities.

D. How public transit companies work.

47. If you pay the bus fare in cash, _____.

A. you may be given some change

B. you can exchange money with the driver

C. it might cost you a little more

D. you must have the exact amount of money

48. By buying a monthly pass or a package of tickets, you can ______.

A. take a bus whenever you want      B. go wherever you like

C. save money                     D. find comfortable seats

49. If you have to change subway lines on a single trip, _____.

A. you have to pay each time

B. you should buy another ticket from the machine

C. you must ask for the driver’s permission

D. you just need to pay once
