  • (2019•山东模拟) Film director James Cameron first became interested in sea exploration when he was a little boy.His love for the ocean grew after he made the 1989 undersea adventure film The Abyss and the 1997 blockbuster Titanic,one of the most successful movies of all time.Following that big success,James Cameron decided to put his film career on hold to become an explorer.
        In 2012,James Cameron made a journey to the deepest spot in the Mariana Trench,known as Challenger Deep.And now the great journey has been made into a documentary(纪录片)film,named James Cameron's Deepsea Challenger 3 D.
        In James Cameron's fantasy films,such as Avatar and The Abyss,the unexplored areas are decorated in colours and full of danger.But on his dive into Challenger Deep,the reality proved far different:white,deserted and dull.
        "I felt like I had gone to another planet,"Cameron said after returning from the cold and dark place in the Western Pacific Ocean,nearly 7 miles below the surface."I really have a sense of being separated and realize how tiny I am down in this big,black and unexplored place."Cameron captured(获取)the moonlike landscape of the deep sea and documented the sea creatures he observed in the ocean.
        James Cameron's Deepsea Challenger 3 D tells the story of Cameron's journey.It is a film about determination,danger and the ocean's greatest depths.The movie shows a unique insight into Cameron's world when he makes his dream a reality and makes history by becoming the first person to travel alone to the deepest point on the planet.
        It's an exciting film and inspiring reminder that our beautiful planet still has a lot to explore.

  • (2016秋•南岗区校级期末) You may think that sailing is a difficult sport,but it is really not hard to learn it.You do not need to be strong.But you need to be quick.And you need to understand a few basic rules about the wind.
        First,you must ask yourself,"Where is the wind coming from?Is it coming from ahead or behind or from the side?"You must think about this all the time on the boat.The wind direction tells you what to do with the sail(帆).
        Let's start with the wind blowing from the behind.This means the wind and the boat are going in the same direction.Then you must always keep the sail outside the boat.It should be at a 90° angle(角度) to the boat.Then it will catch the wind best.
        If the wind is blowing from the side,it is blowing across the boat.In this case,you must keep the sail half way outside the boat.It should be at a 45° angle to the boat.It needs to be out far enough to catch the wind,but it shouldn't flap(摆动).It shouldn't look like on a flagpole.If it is flapping,it is probably out too far,and the boat will slow down.
        Sailing into the wind is not possible.If you try,the sail will flap and the boat will stop.You may want to go in that direction.It is possible,but you can't go in a straight line.You must go first in one direction and then in another.This is called tacking.When you are tacking,you must always keep the sail inside the boat.

    (1)What should you consider first while sailing?
     

    A.Sailors'strength.
    B.Wave levels.
    C.Wind directions.
    D.Size of sails.
    (2)What does the underlined word"It"in Paragraph 4 refer to?
     

    A.The boat.
    B.The wind.
    C.The sail.
    D.The angle.
    (3)What do you have to do when sailing against the wind?
     

    A.Move in a straight line.
    B.Allow the sail to flap.
    C.Lower the sail.
    D.Tack the boat.
    (4)Where can you probably find the text?
     

    A.In a popular magazine.
    B.In a tourist guidebook.
    C.In a physics textbook.
    D.In an official report.

  • (2017春•汾阳市校级期中) Think about the different ways that people use the wind.You can use it to fly a kite or to sail a boat.Wind is one of our cleanest and richest power sources(来源),as well as one of the oldest.Evidence shows that windmills(风车)began to be used in ancient Iran back in the seventh century BC.They were first introduced to Europe during the 1100s,when armies returned from the Middle East with knowledge of using wind power.
        For many centuries,people used windmills to grind(磨碎)wheat into flour or pump water from deep underground.When electricity was discovered in the late 1800s,people living in remote areas began to use them to produce electricity.This allowed them to have electric lights and radio.However,by the 1940s,when electricity was available to people in almost all areas of the United States,windmills were rarely used.
        During the 1970s,people started becoming concerned about the pollution that is created when coal and gas are burned to produce electricity.People also realized that the supply of coal and gas would not last forever.Then,wind was rediscovered,though it means higher costs.Today,there is a global movement to supply more and more of our electricity through the use of wind.

    (1)From the text we know that windmills
     

    A.were invented by European armies
    B.have a history of more than 3000 years
    C.used to supply power to radio in remote areas
    D.have rarely been used since electricity was discovered
    (2)What was a new use for wind power in the late 19th century?
     

    A.Sailing a boat.
    B.Producing electricity.
    C.Grinding wheat into flour.
    D.Pumping water from underground.
    (3)One of the reasons wind was rediscovered in the 1970s is that
     

    A.wind power is cleaner
    B.it is one of the oldest power sources
    C.it was cheaper to create energy from wind

        Things started well,but just after eight o'clock,his three little"good kids"-Mike,Randy,and Alex-came down the stairs in their night clothes and shouted"breakfast,daddy."When food had not appeared within thirty seconds,Randy began using his spoon on Alex's head as if it were a drum.Alex started to shout loudly in time to the beat(节拍).Mike chanted"Where's my toast,where's my toast"in the background.Brad realized his newspaper would have to wait for a few seconds.
        Life became worse after breakfast.Mike wore Randy's underwear on his head.Randy locked himself in the bathroom,whileAlex shouted again because he was going to wet his pants.Nobody could find clean socks,although they were before their very eyes.Someone named"Not Me"had spilled a whole glass of orange juice into the basket of clean clothes.Brad knew the talk show had already started.

  • (2016•崂山区校级模拟) The Israeli farmers who pioneered the revolutionary technology known as drip irrigation weren't trying to solve one of the world's most urgent problems.They were just trying to survive.They lived in the desert,and they didn't have enough water to grow their crops.
        In its simplest form,it was little more than a pipe with holes in it.But behind each hole was a hi-tech dripper that let out just the right amount of water.Snaked along a row of crops so that the holes were positioned directly above the roots,the pipe could direct each precious drop of water directly to the plants,getting a bigger harvest while using a very small amount of the water.
        Over time,the farmers improved upon the technology,perfecting the drippers that regulated the flow of water,and connecting the pipelines to computers that could determine exactly how much water each plant needed and when.
        If the global population kept growing,the rest of the world would increasingly resemble their little community in the desert.So they began selling their irrigation systems in other parts of the world,eventually expanding to more than 110 countries.Netafirm,the company says it's lifting people out of poverty and conserving water at a time when the importance of doing so has never been clearer.
        The mass adoption of drip irrigation won't save the world by itself.To avoid the coming catastrophe,nearly everybody will,in some way,have to do more with less,perhaps through accepting and using other new technologies.Otherwise,it's going to get ugly.

    (1)Why is drip irrigation called"the revolutionary technology"?
     

    A.It saves the world all by itself.
    B.It is controlled by computers.
    C.It makes irrigation more effective.
    D.It provides deserts with water.
    (2)What does"one of the world's most urgent problems"in Paragraph l refer to?
     

    A.lacking water.
    B.lacking labor.

    D.lacking energy.
    (3)How does the drip irrigation help farmers with crops?

  • It is a hot summer day,and you feel thirsty. A friend gives you a glass of cold lemonade.How do you feel when you see the glass? Will you describe your feeling as happiness or as pleasure? I believe you will say it is a feeling of pleasure.There is a connection between these two kinds of feelings,and sometimes one causes the other,but they are not the same.Pleasure is more dependent on the five senses while happiness is independent of them.
        When you are happy,little unpleasant events usually do not disturb you.When you are unhappy,you feel as if everything is against you.You may compensate for it by eating chocolate and sweets because this gives you pleasure. Yet you stay unhappy.A person may smoke cigarettes because it gives him pleasure. Yet,this does not make him happier,especially if he knows the fact that it is not good for his health.
        The physical world is always in a changing state.At each moment a new thing is being created,changed,transformed and then destroyed.This is the normal state of things and no one can change it.If we stay still in a certain state,we are sure to experience unhappiness sooner or later.On the other hand,if we adjust to(适应) the environment,nothing can influence our moods(情绪).Then outer events have nothing to do with our inner joy of mind.
        The room of the mind was filled with worry or fear.If you are free of thinking about them, the room has been emptied,and then you will see what is happening and experience it. When your mind stays quiet,you will see that happiness comes from the inside.

    (1)What does the underlined phrase "compensate for" in Paragraph 2 most probably mean?

  • Here is a true story about a famous man who worked in the White House and a criminal. They once faced the same thing: their mother gave them apples when they were young.
        The criminal said, "One day, my mother brought some apples and asked my brother and me, ‘Which do you want?' ‘The reddest and biggest one,' my little brother said. My mother stared at him and said to him angrily, ‘You should learn to give the good things to others; you shouldn't always think of yourself.' Seeing this, I suddenly changed my idea and then said to my mother, ‘Mum, please give me the smaller one and give the bigger one to my little brother.' Hearing my words, my mother was very happy. She kissed me on my face and gave the reddest and biggest apple to me as a prize. From then on, I learned to tell lies, fight, steal and rob. In order to get what I wanted, I played hard. As a result, I was sent into prison."
        The famous man from the White House said, "One day, my mother brought some apples. She said to my brother and me, ‘You all want the reddest and biggest one, right? Well, let's have a competition. Now I divided the grassland in front of the gate into two and I will give one to each of you and you must shear(修剪) it well. And I will give the reddest and biggest apple to him who does it the most quickly and best.'"
        "After the competition, I won and I got the biggest apple. In our family, as long as you want to get the best things, you must take part in the competition. I think it is fair. No matter what you want, you must pay lots of efforts."

    (1)Why did the criminal get the reddest and biggest apple?
     

    A.Because he knew how to make his mother happy from his answer.

    A.it's wrong to ask children to choose apples when they are not old enough
    B.it's wrong to ask children not to always think of themselves
    C.it's important to make children aware that no matter what they want, they must pay work
    D.it's always necessary to have a competition when we give children apples

  • Why will we build to the sky, underground, and on the water?
        It's a matter of practicality. Cities are places where a large number of people live closely in one environment. They have to be planned in a manageable way. For areas like Japan, preventing cities from earthquakes and practical concerns, such as how to house 120 million people efficiently(有效地) gives rise to these new city plans.
    What will happen to the cities we live in today?
        The cities of the future will not replace the cities we know today. Instead, milehigh cities(空中城市) will allow us to efficiently control and manage energy by using more efficient heating and cooling systems.  They will enable residents(居民) to travel less, and thus create less pollution. "Old" cities may start to look at these new cities.  Perhaps "minicities" will suddenly appear and begin to exist within the "old" cities and certain neighbourhoods will be redesigned.  This could mean a combination of overground and underground facilities(设施).
    What will the milehigh city be like?
        You'd live in the middle of a city but within a small town. You could get on an elevator to go to the movies or even to another town and your mother or father wouldn't have to go with you. Inside the town, new, fun means of transportation-like a sky car-would allow you to go from your fifth floor to someone's fifth floor. The milehigh city is environmentalists' dream. It will change the landscape.

    (1)The writer believes that the milehigh cities will
     

    A.take the place of ordinary cities completely
    B.make people spend long hours to travel to their neighbouring buildings
    C.use more efficient heating and cooling systems than ordinary cities
    D.only allow people to travel in limited space
    (2)Which of the following statements is TRUE?
     

    A.There will be no large cities on the ground in the future.
    B.In the future people will perhaps find transportation can be a lot of fun.
    C.In the future minicities will arise after the "old" cities disappear.
    D.There are a lot of small towns in the middle of cities.
    (3)We can infer from the passage that
     

    A.the cities in the future will take up more space on the land
    B.there will be fewer people in the world in the future
    C.human beings will use more energy in the future
    D.milehigh cities will have a good effect on the environment
    (4)What is the best title of this passage?
     

    A.Cities of the future
    B.Milehigh cities
    C.Lifestyle of the city
    D.Future life
