第 I 卷
I. 阅读理解 （共两节，满分30分）
第一节（共10小题；每小题2分，满分20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，并填写在答题卡上。
A
What do you remember about your childhood? I have good memories of exploring(探测) the fields near my house and riding my bike around the park. Today, children don’t spend enough time in the fresh air. Many of them fix their eyes on a screen either on a computer, or a TV ---they seem to be living in a virtual world. They have lost touch with nature.
Now 400 organizations in the UK are encouraging children to have some “wild time”. They want kids to exchange at least 30 minutes of watching TV or playing computer games for time playing outside . The simple pleasures of exploring and discovering nature help children to learn and keep fit too . Andy Simpson, who is part of the campaign(倡议活动), says: “An extra 30 minutes of wild time every day for all under 12-year-olds in the UK would be the equivalent(同等) of just three months of their childhood spent outdoors.” Even if the kids live in a city, they can go on adventures in the garden or the park. However, children often need a helping hand from Mum and Dad. They need to be shown what to do and where to go.
So despite(尽管) the complex(复杂的) world that young people grow up in now, it seems that going back to basics and experiencing “nature’s playground ” is what modern children need. Andy Simpson adds: “We want parents to see what this magical “playground” does for their kids’ development , independence and creativity(创造力) , by giving wild time a go ” . David Bond from Project Wild Thing says, “We need to make more space for wild time in children’s daily routine , freeing this generation of kids to have the sort of experiences that many of us took for granted. ”
1. What does the author think about the present kids ?
A. They depend on their parents too much . B. They’re eager to play with their parents .
C. They spend too much time playing outside . D. They don’t get close to nature .
2. In the first paragraph , the underlined word “virtual ” probably refers to
9
______________ .
A. magical B. perfect C. unreal D. wonderful
3. What suggestion does David Bond give us ?
A. Prevent kids from playing computer games . B. Help children master basic skills .
C. Teach kids how to face difficulties . D. Let children have more wild time .
4. What do we know about the author?
A. He disliked his childhood full of study and exams.
B. He had a happy childhood by exploring the outdoors.
C. He often went to school by riding on a bicycle.
D. He showed a great interest in watching TV.
B
Now scientists have discovered the first evidence(证据) that the animals actually behave like their masters. Just like children, they use a “look and learn” way which means they can mimic (模仿) human’s actions when going about their tasks.
Biologists and psychologists at the universities of Vienna and Oxford designed an experiment to test the theory(理论) that dogs do have the ability to copy what they see, using a simple wooden box. In the study, ten owners showed their dogs how to open the wooden box, sometimes using their heads to push a handle and sometimes using their hands.
In the first part of the test, five dogs were rewarded with a piece of sausage for copying their owners’ actions. The other five were rewarded with food for not copying, and using other methods. With each dog the experiment was repeated hundreds of times, and the time taken for a dog to get it “right” on 85 percent of attempts(尝试) (17 goes out of 20) was recorded. The dogs that were encouraged to mirror their owners reached this point almost three times sooner on average than those rewarded for not copying them. In the second part of the test, all the dogs were only rewarded for copying the method their owners used. The five dogs previously(先前) rewarded for copying their owners reached the 85 percent mark more than twice as the other five.
In a paper published in Proceeding of the Royal Society, they concluded, “Like humans, dogs can’t help imitating actions they see.” Going further, they said, “The results suggest the imitative (模仿的) behavior of dogs is shaped more by their developmental interactions with humans than by their evolutionary (进化的) history of domestication (驯化).”
Caroline Kisko, from the Kennel club, said, “A dog’s behavior is influenced much like that of a child learning right from wrong and using similar patterns of behavior. We hope that owners understand the importance of their actions and use
9
this knowledge to set good examples and therefore positively influence the behavior of their pets.”
5. What’s the best title of the passage?
A. Dogs Are Intelligent Animals. B. Dogs Are like Children Most.
C. Dogs Behave like Their Masters. D. Dogs Can Complete Simple Tasks.
6. The researchers believe dogs’ imitative behavior comes mainly from ______.
A. human-dog interactions B. human rewards
C. evolution D. domestication
7. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Masters should influence their dogs as early as possible.
B. A man’s bad behavior may influence his dog.
C. Dogs can’t be influenced by men easily.
D. Dogs always behave positively.
C

As is known to all, Senior 3 students are suffering heavy pressure of study．As a result, many students are trying to spare every minute to study, even during the ten-minute break between classes．
In my opinion, taking the ten-minute break between classes is definitely necessary, which makes us relaxed both physically and mentally．The ten-minute break is meant for us to relax and prepare for the next class．Only by doing so can we have more energy to study effectively in class．
My ten-minute break is always pleasing as well as relaxing．Sometimes I do some simple exercises．Sometimes I have a free chat with my classmates or just take walk outside．Therefore, I always feel energetic and listen attentively in class．
