二、非选择题（本大题共3题。第26题23分，第27题12分，第28题15分，共50分）26．（23分）阅读下列材料，回答问题。

材料一 建国初期（1952年底）的中小学语文教材关于战争的文章非常多，如《冀中的地道斗争》、《抗美援朝》、《乌龙山剿匪记》等。也有歌颂新生共和国欣欣向荣景象的，如《新中国的第一个女拖拉机手》。另外课本还大量选用了苏联文学作品，如契诃夫的《小公务员之死》和高尔基的《海燕》等。

材料二 人民教育出版社1958年秋编辑出版的初中语文课本中，和鲁迅同时期的名家几乎集体消失……语文教科书几乎成了时事宣传手册。……根据有关研究者提供的材料，当时浙江省初中三册语文课本收录的31篇文章中，马列经典著作和政论文章占15篇，其余16篇记叙文中，有13篇是乡土教材，其中有6篇是报道农业生产大跃进、农村水利大发展的，有2篇是表扬钢铁产量的突破，有4篇是进行革命传统教育和忆苦思甜教育的。

材料三 2004年，广东教育出版社编写的语文新教材中特设了“走近经济”单元，收录了经济学家王则柯的《钱》、茅于轼的《市场经济中新的道德和法治》等文章。一些语文老师注意到，在新世纪的语文课本中，“爱情”这一曾经讳莫如深的字眼也不再那么敏感。……一些学者认为，爱情题材进入中学语文教材，是“为当前教育补充了情感与人文的元素”。在外国作品的选编方面，新世纪的中小学语文课本视野更加开阔、包容。……根据研究者的统计，在人教版和北师大版小学语文教材中，有关外国选文分别有92篇 和89篇，占所有课文的20%和16.8%，内容涉及科学、人文、自然、风物等各个方面，“表现出了较为广阔的文化视野”。而且，选文所涉及的国家以西方发达国家为主。

——以上均选自中国新闻网《六十年语文书变迁》

请回答：

（1）根据材料一并结合所学知识，从政治、经济、外交方面分析该时期所编写的中小学语文教材产生的背景。（6分）

（2）根据材料二，概括1958年浙江省初中语文教材内容的特点（4分），并结合所学知识分析产生这种特点的背景（6分）。

（3）根据材料三，概括21世纪以来语文教材内容出现的新变化。(3分)（4）根据上述材料，谈谈你从中小学语文教科书的编写中得到的启示。（4分)

27、（12分）阅读下列材料，回答问题。

天下观念是古代中国人观察世界的重要视角……鸦片战争后西方世界的突兀出现对中国优势地位形成了挑战……随着洋务运动的开展和人们对西方了解日益增多，“春秋战国说”开始取代“中国中心观”成为国人认识世界的有效话语通道……如王韬认为西方各国“几有与中国鼎立之势，而有似春秋战国时之列国”。彭玉麟指出：“当今日之时势，强邻日逼，俨然成战国之局，虽孔孟复生，亦不能不因时而变矣。”中国人向有以史鉴今的传统，西方资本主义各国争雄世界的形势，自然使得中国人想到了春秋战国。王尔敏解释道：“将19世纪世界和春秋战国比较，乃反映一种新的国际意识，自然地放下中国中心观念，以古史的镜子，重新思考中国所面对的新世界。……从这种历史比较，以至于古代邦交经验的参考引用，却正是由中国中心的国际观念转变为对等国际观念的一个天然的有效通道。”……甲午战争、庚子一役将中国仅存的一丝文化优越感冲刷殆尽，人们彻底从“中国中心观”中醒来，试图用西方政治学说认识世界。

——任云仙《晚清中国国际秩序观念的变迁》

根据材料并结合所学知识，如何认识材料中提到的“春秋战国说”开始取代“中国中心观”。

28、（15分）历史上重大改革回眸

在中世纪的英国，宫廷和政府之间没有明确界限，官员主要由国王遴选，并被视为国王的仆人。资产阶级革命爆发后，文官开始出现。光荣革命后，国王和权贵行使有封建特权色彩的官职恩赐权来任用官员。直至18世纪末，文官录用仍无常规可据，文官录用权主要由国王、宫廷权贵和各部长官直接行使，私人关系和个人感情成为获取官职的关键因素。

工业革命催生英国近代文官制度。1853年政府有关部门提出《关于建立常任英国文官制度的报告》，建议实行公开竞争考试录用制，并认为考试科目应有四类：古典文学；数学和自然科学；政治经济学、法学和近现代哲学；现代语言、近现代史和国际法。1855年文官改革令是以择优取士的方式取代官职恩赐制的重要起点。1870年枢密院关于文官制改革的命令规定，多数重要文官职位必须按照文官制度委员会的要求，通过公开竞争考试，择优录用。该令的颁布成为英国近代文官制度建立的标志。

A

The gentle giants of our oceans are whale sharks.It's the biggest shark and can reach as long as 41.5 feet, and these amazing creatures are also the biggest fish of any kind.Whale sharks have a lifespan of 70 years on average, and they spend their days gently swimming in the warm and tropical oceans.Their teeth are the size of match heads, and while their jaws could be powerful, they have never tended to attack humans.Their teeth play no role in eating, as plankton(浮游生物)does not need to be chewed.They are to be found in numbers in the warmer oceans and they prefer the deep waters of the open oceans.Several times a year they gather together in certain spots where plankton is plentiful.Those areas are all within a 30°north or south latitude(纬度)from equator.Sadly, whale sharks are targeted by commercial fisheries at those spots.How easy it is for the fishermen to catch those beautiful creatures who can only swim at 3.5 miles per hour!Whale sharks have suffered so great a loss that they are now listed as one of the endangered species.Measures have been taken to protect the whale shark from extinction.The Philippines and India have banned the fishing, selling, importing and exporting of whale sharks for commercial purposes.However, the law does not seem to be effective because the hunting and killing are still going on today, especially in the Philippines.Each whale shark can bring in around $21,000.In parts of Asia they are known as the “money shark”.The mighty dollar wins again at great cost to our habitat.We will not know what we have lost until we have lost it forever.51.Which of the following about whale sharks is NOT true?

A.They usually live a life of 70 years on average.B.They depend on their teeth to harvest their food.C.They like to live in the deep waters of the warmer oceans.D.They gather together some times a year for plankton.52.Which of the following do whale sharks feed on?

A.Big fish.B.Seals.C.Plankton.D.Smaller sharks of the same kind.53.So many whale sharks have been caught mainly because______.A.they swim at a slow speed

B.they mean profit in the eyes of those fishermen C.they often gather together in great numbers D.they never tend to attack humans

54.We can learn from the passage that ______.A.whale sharks are not the biggest sharks but the biggest fish B.whale sharks will be extinct even if they are protected C.Asia has nothing to do with the decreasing of whale sharks D.we should take steps to protect whale sharks

B

Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman.A man goes shopping because he needs something.His purpose is settled and decided in advance.He knows what he wants, and his aim is men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want.If the shop has it in stock(有现货的), the business of trying it on follows at once.All being well, the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minutes, with hardly any chat and to everyone's satisfaction.For a man, slight problems may begin when the shop does not have what he wants, or does not have exactly what he wants.In that case the salesman, as the name implies, tries to sell the customer something else.No good salesman brings out a substitute impolitely;he does so with skill: “I know this jacket is not the style you want, Sir, but would you like to try it on for size? It happens to be the color you mentioned.” Few men have patience with this treatment, and the usual response is: “This is the right color and may be the right size, but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on.”

Now how does a woman buy clothes? In almost every aspect she does so in the opposite way.Her shopping is not often based on need.She has never fully made up her mind what she wants, and she is only “having a look round”.She is always open to persuasion;indeed she is influenced by what the saleswoman tells her, even by what companions tell her.She will try on any number of things.What she wants is to find something that everyone thinks suits her.Contrary to a lot of jokes, most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes.They are always on the lookout for the unexpected bargain.Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may easily spend hours going from one shop to another, to and fro.It is a tiring process, but apparently an enjoyable one.Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.55.The underlined sentence “the price is a secondary consideration” in the second paragraph means when a man is shopping ______.A.he buys things of good quality even if they are very dear

B.he cares about whether the thing is what he needs first and then the price C.he buys whatever he likes without considering its value D.he buys things without considering its price

56.What does a man do when he can not get exactly what he wants?

A.He usually does not buy anything.B.He buys a similar thing because of the color he wants.C.So long as the style is right, he buys the thing.D.At least two of his requirements must be met before he buys.57.What does the passage tell us about women shoppers for clothes?

A.They welcome suggestions from almost anyone.B.Women rarely consider buying cheap clothes.C.Women buy things without giving the matter proper thought.D.They try to buy clothes for more than its real value.58.What is the main difference between men and women shoppers?

A.Men do not try clothes on in a shop while women do.B.Women bargain for their clothes, but men do not.C.Men go shopping based on need, but women often not.D.Women buy more clothes than men.C

A word has suddenly become wildly popular in China—“Tuhao”—which loosely translated means “nouveau riche”(暴发户).It's connected with everything from the new People's Daily building, to expensive celebrity weddings full of bling, and the new gold-colored iPhone.In Chinese “tu” means earth and “hao” means rich.To say someone is Tuhao is to imply they come from a poor peasant background, and have become rich quickly—but don't quite have the proper manners to go along with it.It's almost like the term “nouveau riche”, says Professor Steve Tsang at the School of Contemporary Chinese Studies in Nottingham—but has even more negative meanings, suggesting a certain vulgarity(粗俗).“Tuhao” is actually an old word—dating back perhaps as far as the Southern Dynasty 1,500 years ago —but it has always meant something rather different.During the communist revolution, it was widely used to refer to landholders who would bully(欺侮)those beneath them.This new usage of the term took off in last September after a widely-shared joke about a rich, but unhappy man, who goes to a Buddhist monk for advice, expecting to be told to live a happier life.The monk replies with the phrase: “Tuhao, let's be friends!”

Chinese Internet users are highly creative in their use of language, and are constantly inventing, and re-inventing words.But in this case, its popularity seems to be down to the fact that it briefly expresses China's changing society so well—59.Which of the following may NOT be considered “Tuhao”?

A.A vulgar nouveau riche.B.A bully landholder.C.A quick-rich peasant without proper manners.D.A Buddhist monk.A.what the new usage of the word is B.how the word becomes popular again

C.why the unhappy man went to the Buddhist monk D.what advice the monk gave the unhappy man

61.What is the meaning of the underlined phrase in the last paragraph most similar to?

A.understandB.undertakeC.undervalueD.underline62.What is the main idea of the passage?

A.Tuhao is nouveau riche.B.Tuhao has a long history.C.Tuhao is a newly-invented Chinese word.D.Tuhao is a word popular again in China.D

Having a dental fear（牙科恐惧症）is a common problem.Learning to overcome your fear of the dentist is possible with a little determination and guidance.It is worthwhile to overcome the issue as healthy teeth might help you be healthy physically and spiritually.Admission

Admitting you have a fear is the first step in overcoming dental fear.When you acknowledge your fear, you can start the process.Dentistry has come a long way over the years.The anesthetics(麻醉)are improved, the techniques are of higher quality and dental offices have a better understanding of these issues you are concerned about and all these can help you overcome it.Research

Speak to family and friends about your fear.Be open and honest about your issues and get feedback from them regarding their dental experiences.You can contact your local Dental Society and express your concerns.Another good approach is to simply call dental offices and get useful information from the front office staff.First visit

Most dental offices schedule your first visit by a dental assistant.This gives you a chance to ease into the situation.Do not hesitate to express your fear and hesitation.Pay attention to what the assistant says.It can be very useful and it can gently guide you to a new attitude towards dentists.Relaxation techniques

There are many things you can do to relax yourself.Slow, steady, deep breathes are keys to relax properly.Another aid in relaxation is to bring your iPod to play some relaxing music while you are in the dental chair.Music is a wonderful tool to use and is a helpful distraction.Facing your fear and making the first dental appointment are necessary for your health.Ignoring your dental health because of your fear will only worsen the issues and cause you to have serious dental problems.63.We can learn from the first paragraph that ______.A.few people might have the dental fear B.it's impossible to overcome the dental fear C.it's meaningful to overcome the dental fear

D.it's not necessary to pay attention to dental health

64.You can start the process of overcoming dental fear after______.A.making an appointment with a good dentist B.admitting your dental fear

C.learning something about dental health D.asking advice from other people

65.What should you do when you first visit a dentist?

A.Avoid telling your fear and hesitation.B.Avoid showing any attitude towards the dentists.C.Ask someone to accompany you.D.Listen carefully to the assistant's advice.66.In the last paragraph the author wants to express that ______.A.dental fear can be overcome easily

B.one must be brave enough to face the dental fearC.it's quite difficult to be honest

D.fear is a natural thing that everyone might have

Modern Japan is proud of many technological wonders: robot dogs that run and bark, creative household appliances that make everyday life easier, and computers that make complex problems almost childishly simple.But when it comes to which invention is the best, the Japanese may not be thinking with their heads or their hearts, but their stomachs.They considered instant noodles the best invention of the 20th century.As for life-changing technology, karaoke came in at No.2.The non-scientific survey by the Fuji Research Institute attached to Tokyo University asked 2,000 adults to rate the greatest inventions of the 20th century in three categories: manufactured goods, culture and technology.Participants were asked to take into consideration worldwide acceptance of the various inventions.An astonishing number of 692 placed instant noodles, a Japanese “invention” in 1958, at the top of the list.Instant noodles went into commercial production in 1971, and almost 50 billion cups are now consumed each year worldwide.In 1996, a giant billboard of a steaming cup of noodles was set up above Times Square in New York City, a proud declaration of the place that instant noodles had earned in world cuisine(烹饪).Headphone stereo sets, TV video games, CDs and cameras were ranked behind instant noodles and “Pocket Monsters”, Pikachu and his popular little friends came in at No.8 and automobile-related technology came in at No.9—automobiles themselves, invented overseas, were not ranked at all.Sushi, perhaps the original fast food in Japan, finished the top list.While the Fuji Institute's survey may not have been so scientific, it does suggest one thing: technology may rule the world, but at least in Tokyo, it begins and ends with the taste buds(味蕾).67.Instant noodles were considered the best invention of the 20th century in terms of A.acceptanceB.practicalityC.technologyD.trade 68.The underlined part “off-key howling”.A.automobilesB.karaokeC.PikachuD.Pocket Monsters 69.According to the survey, which was ranked the last on the list of the best inventions?

A.Automobile-related technology.B.Cameras.C.CDs.D.Sushi.70.What's the best title for the passage?

A.Japanese Inventions

B.The Life-changing Technology C.Instant Noodles, the Best Invention D.Wonders of Japan

A An Australian man who has been donating his extremely rare kind of blood for 56 years has saved the lives of more than two million babies.James Harrison has an antibody in his plasma(血浆)that stops babies dying from Rhesus disease, a form of severe anemia(贫血症).He has enabled countless mothers to give birth to healthy babies, including his own daughter, Tracey, who had a healthy son thanks to her father’s blood.Mr.Harrison has been giving blood every few weeks since he was 18 years old and has now added up to a total of 984 donations.When he started donating, his blood was regarded so special that his life was insured for one million Australian dollars.He was also nicknamed the “man with the golden arm” or the “man in two million”.He said, “I’ve never thought about stopping.Never.” He made a promise to be a

http://www.xiexiebang.com donor aged 14 after taking major chest surgery in which he needed 13 liters of blood.“I was in hospital for three months,” he said.“The blood I received saved my life so I made a pledge to give blood when I was 18.”

Just after he started donating he was found to have the rare and life-saving antibody in his blood.At the time, thousands of babies in Australia were dying each year of Rhesus disease.Other newborns suffered permanent brain damage because of the condition.The disease creates an incompatibility between the mother’s blood and her unborn baby’s blood.It stems from one having Rh-positive blood and the other Rh-negative.His blood has since led to the development of a vaccine(疫苗)called Anti-D.After his blood type was discovered, Mr.Harrison volunteered to have a series of tests to help develop the Anti-D vaccine.“They insured me for a million dollars so I knew my wife Barbara would be taken care of,” he said.“I wasn’t scared.I was glad to help.I had to sign every form going and basically sign my life away.”

Mr.Harrison is Rh-negative and was given injections of Rh-positive blood.It was found his plasma could treat the condition and since then it has been given to hundreds of thousands of women.It has also been given to babies after they are born to stop them developing the disease.It is estimated he has helped save 2.2 million babies so far.Mr.Harrison is still donating every few weeks now.51.How old is James Harrison? A.56

B.70

C.74

D.78 52.Why did James decide to donate his blood? Because.A.his daughter asked him to help her son B.he has a golden arm worth a million dollars C.a vaccine called Anti-D is to be developed D.someone else’s blood saved his life 53.The underlined sentence(in Paragraph 5)suggests that.A.babies suffer permanent brain damage before their birth B.the mother and the baby have different types of blood C.Rhesus disease contributes to permanent brain damage D.all the patients have a rare antibody in their blood 54.What can we infer from the sixth paragraph? A.Some of the tests to develop the vaccine are dangerous.B.His wife Barbara needed to be taken care of badly then.C.Mr.Harrison was glad to help develop a new vaccine.D.His blood type was accidentally discovered after tests.B Robots are being used for the first time in hospitals.“Robot-nurses” perform a variety of tasks such as delivering medicine, food and laboratory samples to sickrooms and taking away waste.Patients aren’t treated by robots, as this is still done by medical staff.The idea is to employ robots to transport supplies between

http://www.xiexiebang.com departments.“Nurses often have to break off from what they are doing to gather supplies,” says Peter Seiff, who makes the robots called TUGs.Research shows any interruption in medical work can lead to errors---a nurse may forget whether she has given medicine and may give a patient double the dose(剂量)or none at all.The robots vary in size according to what job they perform, but normally take the shape of a metal box on wheels, with a box on the side containing their software.After being programmed, the robots are able to find their way around a hospital unassisted.They also contain scanning technology to create electronic pictures or a “memory” of routes on their hard drives to help them go through passages, doors and other obstacles.Each robot is also monitored at the producer’s headquarters(总部)in case it runs into any difficulties.Trials show TUGs reduce the time it takes for a patient to receive medicine, and stop drugs from going missing.A study at the University of Maryland Medical Centre in the U.S.found that when three TUGs were used over the course of a year, the average length of time from the drugstore receiving a prescription to the patient receiving it dropped from 74 minutes to 30 minutes and saved nurses 6,123 hours finding medicines.It also cut the number of medicines that went missing to zero.“The biggest complaints we receive from patients is that the nurses don’t spend enough time with them.Anything that frees nurses is a boon,” says Katherine Mulligan, director of nursing at the hospital, “The TUGs allow nurses to spend more time focusing on patient care.Nurse satisfaction has improved.”

55.Which of the following activities are robot-nurses NOT programmed to deal with? A.Transporting supplies.B.Taking away waste.C.Taking care of patients.D.Creating electronic pictures.56.The underline word “boon” in the last paragraph probably means.A.benefit

http://www.xiexiebang.com Consider the case of big, predatory(食肉动物)fish.These giants, like sharks and cod(鳕鱼), eat other smaller fish.Big fish are an important part of the marine ecosystem(海洋生态系统)because they keep down the numbers of smaller fish.Without fish that eat other fish, populations of smaller swimmers would increase, eating more plants, and leaving less vegetation for other creatures, including future fish.As fierce as predators can be, they’re no match for fishing technology.Many people love to catch predatory fish like sharks, cod and tuna, and new studies suggest that over-fishing is threatening these creatures near the top of the marine food chain.In one study, Villy Christensen and his colleagues looked at 200 past studies of marine life to learn how fish populations have changed over time.Christensen reported that between 1910 and 1970, the numbers of big predators decreased slowly, and that in 1970 their populations really started to drop.Around that time, fishing ships began using new tools that led to more fish being caught.The numbers have been falling quickly ever since.Reg Watson looked at the problem from the perspective of the fishermen.In the middle of the 20th century, Watson reported, fishing boats didn’t go far from home, and most fish were caught near the shore.That was no longer true by the 1980s.By then, fishing had moved farther from shore, into the open oceans, and was helped by the development of new technologies.But since the 1990s, something has changed.Despite new technologies and more efforts, fishing operations have not continued to develop.Scientists study historical data to understand the present, and this research is needed to forecast the future of fish and fishing.And the forecast doesn’t look good: large predator fish are becoming harder to find, and soon may disappear.59.From Paragraph 2 we can learn that.A.more big fish are breeding in the ocean B.the fewer smaller fish, the more big fish C.big fish are less important than smaller fish

D.the numbers of smaller fish are controlled by big fish 60.Why did the number of big predators begin to fall quickly in 1970? A.Fishing ships began using new tools with which they could catch more fish.B.There were fewer smaller fish than before.C.There were more people catching big predators.D.Their environment was being polluted by fishing ships.61.Which of the following would scientists most probably agree with? A.It may soon be difficult to find large predator fish.B.It will cost much more in the future to catch big fish.C.Smaller fish still give the fishing industry a bright future.D.It is tough for researchers to forecast the future of fish.62.What can we conclude from the passage? A.The decrease of the number of smaller fish has changed the marine food chain.B.Big fish have to live in the deep sea to avoid being caught.C.Over-fishing with new technology accounts for the decrease of the number of

Hello-Hello World lets users synchronize(使同步)their information with the Hello-Hello Cloud and then access the content from any mobile device or computer.The application is first being released for the ipad and will become available on a variety of platforms, including the iPhone, Android and Blackberry.The application arrives at a time when tablet(平板电脑)computing is driving the creation of new educational tools, such as Hell-Hello World.Many schools and colleges are finding ways to adapt mobile technology for classroom learning.“The market is hot for such pioneering in education and social networking,” said Gontijo.“Hell-Hello promises to be the invention that will set the ball rolling and bring innovation to an industry that has seen little change over the years.”

Technology research firm Gartner predicts that app-store downloads worldwide will double to $17.7 billion as the year closes, and that app-income will hit $15.1 billion, tripling the impact of last year’s sales.App-downloads are expected to continue to jump to 185 billion by 2014, at which point worldwide tablet sales are projected to surpass(超过)208 million units.63.With the launch of Hello-Hello world, users can.A.talk to any foreigners in the world B.speak any foreign languages fluently C.practice pronouncing words correctly D.communicate with native speakers anytime 64.Which mobile device is Hello-Hello World being released for now? A.The iPhone.B.The ipad.C.Android.D.Blackberry.65.What does Sarah Gontijo think it takes to learn a new language effectively?

E Each year about a quarter of a million Americans study abroad.For many of them, a summer or a semester in a foreign country now involves more than just sitting in classrooms and hanging out with other American students.Instead, they are encouraged and sometimes required to be involved in the local communities they are studying in.“It’s absolutely important that they know something about how people in other parts of the world live and think, and how they behave,” says William Finlay, head of the sociology department at the University of Georgia.In 2008, he co-founded a study abroad program with South Africa’s Stellenbosch University.It combines traditional academic in-class learning with community involvement.“We’ve been working with a non-government organization in the township.Our students typically either work with little children in day care centers or work in the library and teach very basic computer skills to young children,” says Finlay.The three-week program proved to be an unforgettable experience for Hillary Kinsey.She says, “It was interesting to learn the history of the area and then talk to these people and see what the social dynamics were, and how certain groups felt about other groups.”

When Hillary Kinsey returned home from South Africa, she and other students in the program established a non-profit group.Kinsey says the group wants to contribute to advancing education and development in South Africa.“One of the purposes of the group is that we hope to raise money and awareness about the situation where those people live and help to promote any sort of educational development that we can, ” Kinsey added.While many study abroad programs focus on helping Americans to learn foreign languages, others take a more intensive approach.“In all of our locations, we place students with local roommates,” says Mark Lenhart, director of CEF Academic Programs, which sends more than a thousand students to China, Korea and other countries each year.He says American students benefit from such one-on-one interactions, in spite of the challenges they face.Lenhart says, “They have to adjust to the local life.This will enable students to become more employable when they graduate.”
