玉溪一中2016届高三英语第七次月考第一部分阅读理解 (共两节20小题；每小题2分，满分40分)第一节：阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。AA person, like a commodity （商品）, needs packaging. But going too far is absolutely undesirable. A little exaggeration, however, does no harm when it shows the persons unique qualities to their advantages. To show personal attractiveness in a casual and natural way, it is important for one to have a clear knowledge of oneself. A skilled packager knows how to add art to nature without any signs of embellishment（装饰）, so that the person so packaged is not a commodity but a human being, lively and lovely. A young person, especially a female, shining with beauty and full of life, has all the favor granted by God. Any attempt to make up would be self - defeating. Youth, however, comes and goes in a flash. Packaging for the middle - aged is primarily to hide the marks made by years. If you still enjoy life enough to keep self - confidence and work at pioneering work, you are unique in your natural qualities, and your attractiveness and grace will remain. Elderly people are beautiful if their river of life has been through plains, mountains and jungles, running its course as it should. You have really lived your life, which now arrives at a self - satisfied stage of quietness and calmness with no interest in fame or wealth. There is no need to make use of hair dyeing. The snow - capped mountain is itself a beautiful scene of fairyland. Let your looks change from young to old in step with the natural ageing process so as to keep in harmony （和谐）with nature, for harmony itself is beauty, while the other way round will only end in unpleasantness. To be in the elders company is like reading a thick book of deluxe （better quality）edition that attracts one so much as to be unwilling to part with.As long as one find where one stands, one knows how to package oneself, just as a commodity sets up its brand by the right packaging.1It can be concluded from the text that _.A. people should be packed at all agesB. people should be packed in a special wayC. elderly people also care about packingD. proper packing makes people attractive2For the middle - aged, attractiveness_ .A. hardly existsB. is the strongestC. comes from the insideD. comes from the appearance3The underlined sentence means that elderly people _.A. are usually packed like a finely - made bookB. experience a lot and have rich knowledge of lifeC. do a lot of traveling and can give you much informationD. enjoy reading thick books of beautiful nature and fairylandsBBaths and bathing have long been considered of medical importance to man. In Greece there are the ruins of a bathtub and water system built over 3, 000 years ago. The Romans had warm public baths. In some as many as 3, 000 persons could bathe at the same time.Treating disease by bathing has been popular for centuries. Modern medical bathing or hydrotherapy, first became popular in Europe and by the late 1700s has also become popular in the United States.For many years frequent bathing was believed to be bad for ones health. Ordinary bathing just to keep clean was avoided and perfume（香水）was often used to cover up body smells!By the 1770s doctors began to say that soap and water were good for health. They believed that it was good for people to be cleaned. Slowly people began to bathe more frequently. During the Victorian Age of the late 19th century, taking a bath on Saturday night became common.In the United States ordinary bathing was slow to become popular. During the 18th and early 19th centuries, many Americans were known as “The Great Unwashed!” In one American city, for example, a person could only take a bath every thirty days! That was a law!Frequency of bathing today is partly a matter of habit. People know that bathing for cleanness is important to health. Doctors know that dirty bodies increase the chance of diseases.Consequently, in the United States, people generally bathe often. Some people bathe once a day at least. They consider a daily bath essential to good health.4In Greece _ .A. there were some public baths large enough to hold 3, 000 persons.B. people used to treat disease by bathingC. people began to bathe thousands of years agoD. people didnt like frequent bathing5.The Americans used to be known as “The Great Unwashed” because _.A. the modem medical bathing first became popular in the U.

Regrettably, mosquitoes can do more than cause an itchy(发痒的）wound. Some mosquitoes spread several serious diseases，including Dengue，yellow fever and malaria.Over one million people worldwide die from these diseases each year. New research now shows how mosquitoes choose who to bite.Mosquitoes need blood to survive. They are attracted to human skin and breath. They smell the carbon dioxide gas, which all mammals breathe out. This gas is the main way for mosquitoes to know that a warm-blooded creature is nearby.But mosquitoes also use their eyes and sense of touch. Michael Dickinson is a professor at the California Institute of Technology. His research shows how these small insects, with even smaller brains，use three senses to find a blood meal.Michael Dickinsons team used plumesa material that rises into the air of carbon dioxide gas into a wind tunnel. They then used cameras to record the mosquitoes. The insects followed the plume.Then, the scientists placed dark objects on the lighter colored floor and walls of the tunnel. Mr. Dickinson said, at first, the mosquitoes showed no interest in the objects at all. “What was quite striking and quite surprising is that the mosquitoes fly back and forth for hours. These are hungry females and they completely ignore the objects on the floor and wall of the tunnel. But the moment they get a hit of CO2, they change their behavior quite obviously and now would become attracted to these little visual blobs (斑点）.”This suggested to the researchers that a mosquitos sense of smell is more important in the search for food. Once mosquitoes catch a smell of a human or animal，they also follow visual signals.12. What do mosquitoes mainly use to find their targets? A. Sense of smell B. Sense of touchC. Sense of sight D. Smart brains13. The first response of the mosquitoes to the objects in the experiment is _. A. to fly to the dark onesB. to catch and stick to themC. to take no notice of them D. to attach themselves to them14. How can we avoid being attacked by mosquitoes according to the text? A. Dont let them see us.B. Use dark objects to stop them.C. Make them fly back and forth for hours.D. Attract them to objects full of carbon dioxide gas.15. What can be the best title for the text? A. How Do Mosquitoes Survive?B. Why Do Mosquitoes Need Blood?C. How Do Mosquitoes Choose to Bite You?D. Why Do Mosquitoes Attack the Human Being?第二节（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。Does this situation seem familiar to you? Your English is progressing well, the grammar is now familiar, the reading comprehension is no problem, and you are speaking quite fluently. 16 . First of all, remember that you are not alone. Listening is probably the most difficult job for almost all learners of English as a foreign language. The most important thing is to listen as often as possible. 17 . The Internet is really a useful tool for English students. You can download The RealPlayer from RealM. The RealPlayer allows you to use the Internet like a radio station. Once you have begun to listen on a regular basis, you might still be frustrated by limited understanding. 18 . Here is some of the advice I give my students: Accept the fact that you are not going to understand everything. Stay relaxed when you do not understand, and try listening to the material for more times. Do not translate everything into your native language. 19 . Dont concentrate on details before you have understood the main ideas. Listen to something you enjoy.I remember the problems I had in understanding spoken German when I first went to Germany. In the beginning, when I didnt understand a word, I insisted on translating it in my mind. This method usually resulted in confusion. 20 . Firstly, translating creates a barrier between the listener and the speaker. Secondly, most people repeat themselves constantly. By remaining calm, I noticed that even if I did not pay much attention I could usually understand what the speaker had said.A. What should you do?B. Listen for the general idea of the conversation.C. But you cant follow a native English speaker at all! D. But listening is a problem for most of the beginners!E. So, what you need to do is to find listening resources.F.
