unit 16 stories (60分鐘81分)part a一、閱讀理解(共8小題;每小題2分,滿分16分)apeople have been painting pictures for at least 30,000 years.the earliest pictures were painted by people who hunted animals.they used to paint pictures of the animals they wanted to catch and kill.pictures of this kind have been found on the walls of caves in france and spain.no one knows why they were painted there.perhaps the painters thought that their pictures would help them to catch these animals.or perhaps human beings have always wanted to tell stories in pictures.about 5,000 years ago the egyptians and other people in the near east began to use pictures as a kind of writing.they drew simple pictures or signs to represent things and ideas,and also to represent the sounds of their language.the signs these people used became a kind of alphabet.the egyptians used to record information and to tell stories by putting picture-writing and pictures together.when an important person died,scenes and stories from his life were painted and carved on the walls of the place where he was buried.some of these pictures are like modern comic strip(連環(huán)漫畫)stories.it has been said that egypt is the home of the comic strip.but,for the egyptians,pictures still had magic power.so they did not try to make their way of writing simple.the ordinary people could not understand it.by the year 1,000 bc,people who lived in the area around the mediterranean sea had developed a simpler system of writing.the signs they used were very easy to write,and there were fewer of them than in the egyptian system.this was because each sign,or letter,represented only one sound in their language.the greeks developed this system and formed the letter of the greek alphabet.the romans copied the idea,and roman alphabet is now used all over the world.these days,we can write down a story,or record information,without using pictures.but we still need pictures of all kinds:drawings,photographs,signs and diagrams.we find them everywhere:in books and newspapers,in the street,and on the walls of the places where we live and work.pictures help us to understand and remember things more easily,and they can make a story much more interesting.(2015湖北重點(diǎn)中學(xué)期中聯(lián)考)1.ancient people in france and spain painted pictures on the walls of caves probably because.a.they loved animalsb.they enjoyed seeing picturesc.they

disappeared”構(gòu)成轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系,應(yīng)選擇b項(xiàng)。4.a根據(jù)第七段中的“so i wrote a short note.”可知答案為a項(xiàng)。note“便條”;poster“海報(bào)”;bill“賬單,清單”;report“報(bào)告”。5.d根據(jù)下文“he couldnt imagine any of them had done that”可判斷出,公寓內(nèi)的居民都是友善的人,d項(xiàng)符合語境。nice意為“友好的,友善的,和善的”。6.a由第二段第三句“one of their neighbors had written to complain about the sound of the

11.”中的party可知答案。9.b舉辦聚會(huì)是一種想法,應(yīng)選b項(xiàng)。10.c在接下來的幾天里,他們發(fā)出了請(qǐng)柬并為客人們準(zhǔn)備了甜點(diǎn)。prepare.for.為習(xí)慣搭配,意為“為準(zhǔn)備”。11.b由下文可知,客人們陸續(xù)光臨,說明舉辦聚會(huì)的這一天“到來”了。12.c根據(jù)常識(shí)可知,客人帶來甜品是與大家“共享”的,選c項(xiàng)。13.b由倒數(shù)第三段中“she

songs are beautiful music”表明,母子二人會(huì)“很高興”在晚上彈奏這些曲目。下文“he was happy to see the big smile on his mothers face”也暗示出c項(xiàng)為答案。19.b他已經(jīng)開始盼望著“練習(xí)”這些新曲目了,b項(xiàng)符合語境。20.c母親臉上綻放的笑容給了他“溫暖”的感覺,c項(xiàng)符合語境。equality“平等”;freedom“自由”;sympathy“同情”。二、七選五閱讀填空(共5小題;每小題2分,滿分10分)we all know how to save

of saving money when traveling.if you can get your breakfast for free,you are going to save at least $5 every morning.2 this way you can eat bacon,eggs,and pancakes instead of cold cereal and fruit.free internet.in some hotels,the internet service is everything you want.in addition to being free,it is wireless and the signal strength is strong from check-in to check-out.in other hotels,however,they charge $34.99/day or more for wireless internet access.3 free shuttle service.the best way to avoid renting a car,but still be able to get around is to stay at a hotel with a free shuttle service.4 some hotels will take you wherever you want to go,within reason.others have mileage limitations.and of course,there are some that will only take you to and from the airport or bus station.5 for instance,if you are visiting disney world it makes good sense to choose a hotel in the resort.then you dont have to drive to and from the park every day.not only will this possibly save you from renting a car,but it can save a lot of money on gas,which is getting more expensive by the minute.a.to make this even better,find a hotel with a hot breakfast.b.stay close to the destination you are visiting.c.but the price of the room isnt the whole story.d.it is important to ask up fro
