9、阅读 (共两节，满分共两节，满分50分分) 第一节 (共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A In the 1960s, while studying the volcanic history of Yellowstone National Park, Bob Christiansen became puzzled about something that, oddly, had not troubled anyone before: he couldnt find the parks volcano. It had
10、 been known for a long time that Yellowstone was volcanic in naturethats what accounted for all its hot springs and other steamy features. But Christiansen couldnt find the Yellowstone volcano anywhere. Most of us, when we talk about volcanoes, think of the classic cone (圆锥体) shapes of a Fuji or Kil
11、imanjaro, which are created when erupting magma (岩浆) piles up. These can form remarkably quickly. In 1943，a Mexican farmer was surprised to see smoke rising from a small part of his land. In one week he was the confused owner of a cone five hundred feet high. Within two years it had topped out at al
12、most fourteen hundred feet and was more than half a mile across. Altogether there are some ten thousand of these volcanoes on Earth, all but a few hundred of them extinct. There is, however, a second less known type of volcano that doesnt involve mountain building. These are volcanoes so explosive t
13、hat they burst open in a single big crack, leaving behind a vast hole, the caldera. Yellowstone obviously was of this second type, but Christiansen couldnt find the caldera anywhere. Just at this time NASA decided to test some new high-altitude cameras by taking photographs of Yellowstone. A thought
14、ful official passed on some of the copies to the park authorities on the assumption that they might make a nice blow-up for one of the visitors centers. As soon as Christiansen saw the photos, he realized why he had failed to spot the caldera: almost the whole park2.2 million acreswas caldera. The e
15、xplosion had left a hole more 高中英语 必修第三册 4 / 23 than forty miles acrossmuch too huge to be seen from anywhere at ground level. At some time in the past Yellowstone must have blown up with a violence far beyond the scale of anything known to humans. ( )21. What puzzled Christiansen when he was studyi
16、ng Yellowstone? A. Its complicated geographical features. B. Its ever-lasting influence on tourism. C. The mysterious history of the park. D. The exact location of the volcano. ( )22. What does the second paragraph mainly talk about? A. The shapes of volcanoes. B. The impacts of volcanoes. C. The ac
17、tivities of volcanoes. D. The heights of volcanoes. ( )23. What does the underlined word “blow-up” in the last paragraph most probably mean? A. Hot-air balloon. B. Digital camera. C. Big photograph. D. Birds view. B Stonehenge (巨石阵) may have been a prehistoric health center rather than a site for ob
18、serving stars or a temple in honor of the dead, scientists said yesterday. New evidence unearthed at the World Heritage Site in more than 40 years suggests that the monument was a place where the diseased and injured went in groups, seeking cures. After a two-week dig, scientists have concluded that
19、 Stonehenge was “the ancient healthcare centre of southern England” because of the existence of “bluestones”the smaller columns of dolerite (辉绿岩) that formed an earlier stone structure. By dating pieces of remains to around 7330 BC, Tim Darvill, of Bournemouth University, and Goff Wainwright, of the
20、 Society of Antiquaries have found that huntergatherers were at the site on Salisbury Plain 4,000 years earlier than thought. The first stage of Stonehenge, a round earthwork structure, was built around 3000 BC. Professor Wainwright added: “I did not expect the degree of complexity we discovered. We
21、re able to say so 高中英语 必修第三册 5 / 23 much more about when Stonehenge was built and whyall of which changes our previous understanding of the monument.” The research reveals the importance of the henges famous bluestones. Hundreds of bluestone chips gathered at the site have led the team to conclude t
22、hat the bluestones were valued for their curing effectsthe key reason that about 80 of them, each weighing up to 4 tons and a half, were dragged more than 150 miles from the Preseli Hills to Wiltshire. After years of research, Professors Darvill and Wainwright have concluded that, for thousands of y
23、ears, the Preseli mountain range was home to magical health centers and holy wells. Even today there are those who believe in the curing powers of the springs for coughs and heart disease, and people who use crystals and bluestones for self-curing. Radiocarbon tests have also revealed that the const
24、ruction of the original bluestone circle took place around 2300 BC, three centuries later than originally thought. Interestingly, on the same day died the “Amesbury Archer”a sick traveler from the Swiss or German Alps who had an infected kneewhose remains were discovered about five miles from Stoneh
25、enge. The professors believe that he was a devoted religious person who was hoping to benefit from the curing powers of the monument. ( )24. Stonehenge is recently believed to be a place for people _. A. to recover from poor health B. to observe star movements C. to hold religious ceremonies D. to g

The new discovery was the same as what had been expected. C. Some huge bluestones were not produced at Stonehenge. D. The original bluestone circle was tho

29、s is partly because there is practically nothing left to kill, and partly because some steps have been taken, mainly by banning tiger-shooting, to protect those animals which still survive. Some people say that man is naturally a hunter. I disagree with this view. Surely our earliest forefathers, wh
30、o at first possessed no weapons, spent their time digging for roots, and were no doubt themselves often hunted by meat-eating animals. I believe the main reason why the modern hunter kills is that he thinks people will admire his courage in overpowering dangerous animals. Of course, there are some w
31、ho truly believe that the killing is not really the important thing, and that the chief pleasure lies in the joy of the hunt and the beauties of the wild countryside. There are also those for whom hunting in fact offers a chance to prove themselves and risk death by design; these men go out after da
32、ngerous animals like tigers, even if they say they only do it to rid the countryside of a threat. I can respect reasons like these, but they are clearly different from the need to strengthen your high opinion of yourself. The greatest big-game hunters expressed in their writings something of these f
33、iner motives. One of them wrote: “You must properly respect what you are after and shoot it cleanly and on the animals own territory (领地). You must fix forever in your mind all the wonders of that particular day. This is better than letting him grow a few years older to be attacked and wounded by hi
34、s own son and eventually eaten, half alive, by other animals. Hunting is not a cruel and senseless killingnot if you respect the thing you kill, not if you kill to enrich your memories, not if you kill to feed your people.” I can understand such beliefs, and can compare these hunters with those who
35、hunted lions with spears (矛) and bravely caught them by the tail. But this is very different from many tiger-shoots I have seen, in which modern weapons were used. The so-called hunters fired from tall trees or from the backs of trained elephants. Such methods made tigers seem no more dangerous than
36、 rabbits. 高中英语 必修第三册 7 / 23 ( )28. There is no more hunting in India now partly because _. A. it is dangerous to hunt there B. hunting is already out of date C. hunters want to protect animals D. there are few animals left to hunt ( )29. The author thinks modern hunters kill mainly _.

Modern hunters should put their safety first. D Increasing numbers of airports, especially in Europe, are pr
39、omoting a “silent airport” idea. It is to reduce noise pollution, such as airport-wide announcements, without sacrificing timely and helpful updates of information. International airports were once characterized by their high voices, competing gate announcements and so on. 高中英语 必修第三册 8 / 23 This is
40、all changing. Angela Gittens, director general of Airports Council International (ACI), says there is a growing desire among airports and airlines they serve to create a calm, relaxed atmosphere without being disturbed by announcements. “Passengers can relax while they wait for their flight to board
41、 in the common airside lounges (休闲区), and food and drink areas,” she says. In June, Helsinki Airport in Finlanda country where the tourism slogan (口号) is “Silence, please”became the most recent airport to adopt the silent concept. As part of its commitment to quieting things down, announcements for
42、flights are made only in boarding gate areas. Lost track of time in the shops? Too bad. Nobodys going to call you to your flight, as announcements in all terminals will be made only in exceptional (例外的) emergency circumstances. Heikki Koski, vice president of Helsinki Airport, says that improved fli
43、ght information display system and interactive kiosks (交互式自助服务机), together with advances in mobile technology, are changing the way airports communicate with passengers. At Munich Airport, Info Gate kiosks allow for video-based face-to-face conversation with a live customer service representative in
44、 the travelers language of choice. Interactive signs, on the other hand, give directions at the touch of finger. Passengers can tap a “you are here” display to get directions and approximate walking time to their destinations. Of course, an airport will never be as silent as a temple. There will con
45、tinue to be a need for airport-wide emergency announcements along with boarding calls. But at silent airports, the latter can be restricted to specific gates, as has adopted in Helsinki. ( )32.

To be compared with Helsinki Airport. ( )35. What is the best title for the text? A. Silence, please. This is

49、pen up in order to improve your mental health. 37 Accept this and move on. Give yourself some time to have sweaty palms or a shaky voice, since it will get better with practice. Ask people open-ended questions. To begin practicing opening up, you need to engage in honest, open conversation. Try a question like “How are things going at work?” instead of “Hows it going?” to get an open answer. Then, in turn answer open-ended questions with honest answers, instead of “Fine” or “OK”. 38 However, in most cases people are flattered that you are listening to them and inter
