2．Whether or not to go university will probably be the biggest educational decision you ever make．After battling with student finance，deciding whether or not to take a year out can be as terrifying as deciding where to move to for the three years．
Some students will have planned their year out for months，but，for others，slipped grades may force a gap year （間隔年），either to retake exams or to apply to different universities．Others might just need time to think．Thankfully，for U．K．Students，taking a gap year remains a good option and it can be one of the most productive and fulfilling years of their life．
Whether you've planned and budgeted for a year abroad，or have made a last-minute decision to delay your first year，the options are endless．Traveling，volunteering and so on are all there for the talking，With so many things on offer，it's important to remember that 12months won't be enough time to do all of them，so decide early and work towards making whatever you want to do a reality．
Researching a gap year is exciting，and often the place to start is at home．Family and fiends can be a great source of inspiration．Your school or college might fully equipped to advise you on what to do when further education is on hold．Don't understimate（低估）the power of the Internet，either．Typing a"gap year"into a search engine might seem too obvious，but planning to travel around the world for months on your own is not appropriate．
To stay at home or go abroad is likely to be the first question you consider，but in this era of budget flights，doing both is practicable．A European inter-rail ticket（火車票）can be as little as£159．For those loving traveling，they must be on the special watchfulness for tricks in the process．Agencies can organize your year abroad for you，and often，it is more effective to make the bookings through the agencies．But flights and other forms of transport within Asia and America are much cheaper when bought in the countries rather than bought in advance．

32．According to Paragragh 2，why do other students have to take a gap year？C
A．Because they are faced with financial problems
B．Because they dislike what they are learning
C．Because they haven't got satisfying grades
D．Because they intend to hang out for a year
33．The underline words"on hold"in Paragragh 4mean"B"
A．taken in     B．Put off    C．Given up     D．Turned put
34．What can we learn from the last paragragh？D
A．Few students can afford to go abroad
B．Traveling around Europe costs nothing
C．It's better to go to Asia and south America
D．Travellers should make sure they aren't cheated
35．The auther's attitude towards a gap year may best described asA
A．Supportive     B．negative      C．Defensive     D．Sensitive．

17．Two girls living next door to each other-a seemingly plain scene that has two very different life．stories behind it．
Chi Zhen，an 18-year-old student in Seville，Spain，used his camera to tell the story of two lives，which went widespread online．Comments on the photos indicate that they have inspired many，to believe that the future is in their own hands．
Chi has seen many youths living life without a goal，wasting their time and blaming bad luck for it．
Feeling regret for them，he took a series of photos of his friends Veronica and Anna Maria，both freshmen at the University of Seville in Spain．They live completely different life styles and are getting opposite results．
Chi hopes the photos will inspire those who have let go of their own fate （命運(yùn)）．
In the photos，Anna Maria，a Spanish girl，can be seen watching a TV programme．She spends most of her time in front of her laptop．She rarely goes out，because she thinks she's not attractive and doesn't know what to say in social situations．"'I'm not as lucky as Veronica，"she often says．
But she doesn't know that while she's wasting time watching TV，-Veronica，the"lucky"girl next door，has taught herself four foreign languages and traveled to many places．She goes to the library frequently  and her extensive knowledge and experience allow her to take part in any conversation and become the center of attention．
Chi thinks that Anna Maria resembles many of his Chinese．friends who study abroad．They are trapped to their little circles，never trying to change their fate．/'They say'maybe I'll do it in my next life'，but they are in their 20s，their best time．How can they give up hope and accept this as their life？"Chi says．
The influence of the photos has gone far beyond what Chi expected．One user commented on his photos on Renren．com，saying，"A wall separates two worlds，and the life we have depends on what we do．"Another is determined to make a change right away．"I'm turning off my laptop and not watching TV anymore，"he wrote．
29．What would be the best title of the text？D
A．A lucky dog in social circles                      
B．Comments on the photos
C．A photo separates two worlds．
D．Tales of two opposite lives
30．It can be concluded from the widespread photos online that _A'
A．life one has depends on what one does               
B．Anna is an attractive girl with a goal
C．Veronica is much luckier than Anna             
D．Chi wastes his time in taking photos
31．According to the text，VeronicaC．
A．likes watching TV programmes               
B．seldom chats with others
C．is often the centre of attention                 
D．lets go of her own fate

B．like to travel to different places of interest

7．What we know of prenatal development makes all this attempt made by a mother to mold the character of her unborn child by studying poetry，art，or mathematics during pregnancy seem totally impossible．How could such extremely complex influences pass from the mother to the child？There is no connection between their nervous systems．Even the blood vessels of mother and child do not join directly．An emotional shock to the mother will affect her child，because it changes the activity of her glands （腺體） and so the chemistry of her blood．Any chemical change in the mother's blood will affect the child for better or worse．But we can not see how a looking for mathematics or poetic genius can be dissolved in blood and produce a similar liking or genius in the child．
In our discussion of instincts we saw that there was reason to believe that whatever we inherit must be of some very simple sort rather than any complicated or very definite kind of behavior．It is certain that no one inherits a knowledge of mathematics．It may be，however，that children inherit more or less of a rather general ability that we may call intelligence．If very intelligent children become deeply interested in mathematics，they will probably make a success of that study．
As for musical ability，it may be that what is inherited is an especially sensitive ear，a peculiar structure of the hands or the vocal organs connections between nerves and muscles that make it comparatively easy to learn the movements a musician must execute，and particularly vigorous emotions．If these factors are all organized around music，the child may become a musician．The same factors，in other circumstance might be organized about some other center of interest．The rich emotional equipment might find expression in poetry．The capable fingers might develop skill in surgery．It is not the knowledge of music that is inherited，then nor even the love of it，but a certain bodily structure that makes it comparatively easy to acquire musical knowledge and skill．Whether that ability shall be directed toward music or some other undertaking may be decided entirely by forces in the environment in which a child grows up．

74．Which of the following statements is not true？B
A．Some mothers try to influence their unborn children by studying art and other subjects
during their pregnancy．
B．It is totally impossible for us to learn anything about prenatal development．
C．The blood vessels of mother and child do not join directly．
D．There are no connection between mother's nervous systems and her unborn child's．
75．A mother will affect her unborn baby on the condition thatA．
A．she is emotionally shocked
B．she has a good knowledge of inheritance
C．she takes part in all kind of activities
D．she sticks to studying
76．According to the passage，a child may inheritC．
A．everything from his mother
B．a(chǎn) knowledge of mathematics
C．a(chǎn) rather general ability that we call intelligence
D．her mother's musical ability
77．Which of the following is the best title for the passage？A
A．Role of Inheritance
B．An Unborn Child
C．Function of instincts
D．Inherited Talents．

14．Scientists have always been interested in the high level of organization in ant societies．American researchers have watched ants build life-saving rafts （筏子） to keep afloat during floods．They also have documented how ant colonies choose their next queen----the female whose job is to produce eggs．
New technology is helping to improve researchers'understanding of the insects．But there is still a lot to be learned．
Fire ants living in Brazilian forests are perfectly at home in an environment where flooding is common．To save themselves，the insects connect their legs together and create floating rafts．Some ant rafts can be up to 20centimeters wide．
David Hu who is a mechanical engineer with the Georgia Institute of Technology，also known as Georgia Tech，says，"If you have 100ants，which means 600legs，99percent of those legs will be connected to a neighbor．So they're very，very good at maintaining this network．"
David Hu and other Georgia Tech researchers wanted to study ants and the secret of their engineering．They froze ant rafts and then look at them with the help of computed technology，or CT，images．The pictures showed that larger ants serve in central positions to which smaller ants hold．The larger ants form pockets of air that keep the insects afloat．
Scientists say small robots or materials that can change shape could be programmed in a similar way，working towards a shared goal．
Researchers at North Carolina State University are also studying ants．They examined how Indian jumping ants choose the leader of the colony when they lose their top female or queen．Researcher Clint Penick says all the worker ants in the colony are females．His team found that the worker ants start a series of competitions or battles and that some workers become physically larger．

32．The duty of the queen ants is toD．
A．build rafts       B．keep organized

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2017屆河北省高三下學(xué)期第1周周測(cè)英語(yǔ)試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

A student walks into his first class and realizes he forgot all about the midterm exam. He knows he needs to bring his grades up, and getting a zero will make it nearly impossible. He quickly jots down some notes and shoves them under his lap hoping it will help him pass. Cheating is a major concern in all academic environments. Students are creating new and more outrageous(令人吃驚的）ways of cheating every day: some claim that certain accounts of cheating can be justified, but overall it can always be prevented.

Cheating has been around forever, and millions of ways to cheat have been fashioned. Copying homework and cheat sheets are some of the most basic ways students in all education levels have cheated. Some students think nothing about writing a few answers on their hand, in a gum wrapper, or boldly using a study guide to cheat. Desperate students have even gone as far as to steal the test or scan in bottle wrappers and put answers into the nutrition label. The internet has now become available in almost every location. Computers can be accessed at school, at home, and now even on cell phones. This opens a doorway for even more methods of cheating to be born.

There are countless opinions on whether or not cheating can be justified. The truth is this behavior will always be a matter of opinion with each scenario of cheating. Students often rationalize their cheating by claiming they forgot to look over the material or did not understand what the teacher or professor was saying. Some may counter these arguments by saying that the student could have set reminders or asked the teacher to explain the material before the day of the test. Some other reasons students believe cheating is justified are their heavy workloads and trying to find time for school, sports, friends, and family. This may be true in certain instances, however, all students have these problems, and it is unfair to the students refrain(制止) from cheating when the student who is dishonest receives a better grade. The majority of students who think cheating is acceptable may believe the reason for this is that sometimes students are unaware they are cheating, there is not enough time given for assignments, or that the information is too much for the course.

It may be difficult to accomplish, hut cheating can be prevented. 1'eachers and professors have tried many options to stop cheating. These options can range anywhere from simply spreading test-takers out in a room, to expelling（驅(qū)逐）a student, which will most likely hinder their plans of getting into another college. One simple way to fix the problem is to scold the student when caught. They may be so scared or embarrassed that they never do it again. This is a risky way to prevent cheating in some cases, however, because it can possibly damage self-esteem. Another simple way 10 avoid cheating is to create many different kinds of the same test. This prohibits students from getting the answers off of a neighbor's test, but students still have the option of using other cheating tactics.

There may be a million ways to cheat and get away with it, but there are few times, if any, that it is justified. Cheating never has to be a necessity and is never worth compromising morals and losing years worth of working towards a degree. This problem is spreading throughout America; with everyone's help, it can be stopped.

1.Which is the best title of this passage?

A. To cheat or not to cheat B. Show your opinion on cheating

C. Debates on cheating D. Different ways of cheating

2.The second paragraph mainly tells us that .

A. cheating through the Internet is the most basic way

B. students who cheat in exams are cleverer

C. millions of ways to cheat have been fashioned

D. students cheat in exams to score better grades

A. they don't understand their teachers' words

B. they bury themselves in a lot of homework

C. they don't have enough time to complete the study tasks

D. they forget to look over the material

4.What is the disadvantage of scolding the cheating students according to the passage?

A. They may continue to cheat next time.

B. They may be hurt mentally.

C. They may use other cheating tactics.

D. They may get on badly with their teachers.

5.What is the author's attitude towards cheating?

A. It is reasonable B. It is necessary

C. it can be praised D. It must be prevented
