第一篇：2005年高考英语试题及答案

第一节 填空（共10小题上，每小题1分，满分10分）

短文阅读，根据所读内容在文后76～85的空格里填上适当的单词或短语，并将答案转写到答题卡上。

注意每空一超过3个单词。

个单词。The population of the United States is growing older and will continue to do so.According to a report,___39___million Americans will be 65 or older by the year 2010,___51___million by 2020, and 65 million by 2030.The “graying” of the United States is mainly due to the fact that people in the U.S.are living longer.As a matter of fact, the number of U.S.citizens 85 years old and older is growing six times as fast as the rest of the population.It is also largely due to the old-growing of the “baby boomers”, the generation born after World War II.In 1957, over 4.3 million babies were born.More than 75 million Americans were born between 1946 and 1964, the largest generation in U.S.history.In less than twenty years, millions of them will become elderly people.The “graying” of the U.S.will greatly affect the nation’s family and workforce.One likely development will be a gradual change in the family unit;it will move away from the nuclear family and towards a multigenerational family.The other likely development will be a change in the proportion(比例)of the nation’s

workforce.In 1989 there were 3.5 workers for every person 65 and older;by the year 2030, there will only be 2 workers for every person 65 and older.Title: 1.________

Dear Sir or Madame,I’m very glad to be invited to the English summer camp.I prefer to go in July because I’ll have to prepare myself for the new school term

in August.It seems all the activities you offer are attractive and meaningful.But I’d like to attend the English lectures, from which I can get more information on British and American culture.With the coming of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, more and more foreigners are eager to know about China.So I hope to teach foreigners Chinese and spread Chinese culture.It’s been a dream for me to visit Beijing.Could you organize a tour around the city during the camp?

Thank you very much.Yours truly,Li Ping

第二篇：2014年广东高考英语试题及答案解析

Two days later, Alice got a call from Anne Herbert, a woman living in Marin.It was in a restaurant that Anne wrote the phrase down on a piece of paper, after turning it around in her mind for days.“Here’s the idea,” Anne says.“Anything you think there should be more of, do it randomly.” Her fantasies include painting the classrooms of shabby schools, leaving hot meals on kitchen tables in the poor part of town, and giving money secretly to a proud old lady.Anne says, “Kindness can build on itself as much as violence can.”

The acts of random kindness spread.If you were one of those drivers who found your fare paid, who knows what you might have been inspired to do for someone else later.Like all great events, kindness begins slowly, with every single act.Let it be yours!

31.Why did Natalie Smith pay for the six cars behind her?

A.She knew the car drivers well.B.She wanted to show kindness.C.She hoped to please others.D.She had seven tickets.32.Judy Foreman copied down the phrase because she _________.A.thought it was beautifully written

B.wanted to know what it really meant

C.decided to write it on a warehouse wall

D.wanted her husband to put it up in the classroom

33.Who came up with the phrase according to the passage?

A.Kindness and violence can change the world.B.Kindness and violence can affect one’s behavior.C.Kindness and violence can reproduce themselves.D.Kindness and violence can shape one’s character.35.What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A.People should practice random kindness to those in need.B.People who receive kindness are likely to offer it to others.C.People should practice random kindness to strangers they meet.D.People who receive kindness are likely to pay it back to the giver.C

Like many new graduates, I left university full of hope for the future but with no real idea of what I wanted to do.My degree, with honors, in English literature had not really prepared me for anything practical.I knew I wanted to make a difference in the world somehow, but I had no idea how to do that.That’s when I learned about the Lighthouse Project.I started my journey as a Lighthouse Project volunteer by reading as much as I could about the experiences of previous volunteers.I knew it would be a lot of hard work, and that I would be away from my family and friends for a very long time.In short, I did not take my decision to apply for the Lighthouse Project lightly.Neither did my family.Eventually, however, I won the support of my family, and I sent in all the paperwork needed for the application.After countless interviews and presentations, I managed to stand out among the candidates and survive the test alone.Several months later, I finally received a call asking me to report for the duty.I would be going to a small village near Abuja, Nigeria.Where? What? Nigeria? I had no idea.But I was about to find out.After completing my training, I was sent to the village that was small and desperately in need of proper accommodation.Though the local villagers were poor, they offered their homes, hearts, and food as if I were their own family.I was asked to lead a small team of local people in building a new schoolhouse.For the next year or so, I taught in that same schoolhouse.But I sometimes think I learned more from my students than they did from me.Sometime during that period, I realized that all those things that had seemed so strange or unusual to me no longer did, though I did not get anywhere with the local language, and returned to the United States a different man.The Lighthouse Project had changed my life forever.36.What do we know about the author?

A.His university education focused on the theoretical knowledge.B.His dream at university was to become a volunteer.C.He took pride in having contributed to the world.D.He felt honored to study English literature.37.According to the Paragraph 2, it is most likely that the author ________.A.discussed his decision with his family.B.asked previous volunteers about voluntary work

C.attended special training to perform difficult tasks

D.felt sad about having to leave his family and friends

38.In his application for the volunteer job, the author ________.A.participated in many discussions

B.went through challenging survival tests

C.wrote quite a few papers on voluntary work

D.faced strong competition from other candidates

39.On arrival at the village, the author was _________.A.asked to lead a farming team

B.sent to teach in a schoolhouse

C.received warmly by local villagers

D.arranged to live in a separate house.40.What can we infer from the author’s experiences in Nigeria?

A.He found some difficulty adapting to the local culture

B.He had learned to communicate in the local language.C.He had overcome all his weaknesses before he left for home.D.He was chosen as the most respectable teacher by his students.D

Scientists today are making greater effort to study ocean currents(洋流).Most do it using satellites and other high-tech equipment.However, ocean expert Curtis Ebbesmeyer does it in a special way---by studying movements of random floating garbage.A scientist with many years’ experience, he started this type of research in the early 1990s when he heard about hundreds of athletic shoes washing up on the shores of the northwest coast of the United States.There were so many shoes that people were setting up swap meets to try and match left and right shoes to sell or wear.Ebbesmeyer found out in his researches that the shoes — about 60,000 in total — fell into the ocean in a shipping accident.He phoned the shoe company and asked if they wanted the shoes back.As expected, the company told him that they didn't.Ebbesmeyer realized this could be a

great experiment.If he learned when and where the shoes went into the water and tracked where they landed, he could learn a lot about the patterns of ocean currents.The Pacific Northwest is one of the world's best areas for beachcombing(海滩搜寻)because winds and currents join here, and as a result, there is a group of serious beachcombers in the area.Ebbesmeyer got to know a lot of them and asked for their help in collecting information about where the shoes landed.In a year he collected reliable information on 1, 600 shoes.With this data, he and a colleague were able to test and improve a computer program designed to model ocean currents, and publish the findings of their study.As the result of his work, Ebbesmeyer has become known as the scientist to call with questions about any unusual objects found floating in the ocean.He has even started an association of beachcombers and ocean experts, with 500 subscribers from West Africa to New Zealand.They have recorded all lost objects ranging from potatoes to golf gloves.41.The underlined phrase swap meets in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _____.A.fitting roomsB.trading fairs

C.business talksD.group meetings

42.Ebbesmeyer phoned the shoe company to find out _______.A.what caused the shipping accident

B.when and where the shoes went missing

C.whether it was all right to use their shoes

D.how much they lost in the shipping accident

43.How did Ebbesmeyer prove his assumption?

A.By collecting information from beachcombers.B.By studying the shoes found by beachcomber.C.By searching the web for ocean currents models.D.By researching ocean currents data in the library.44.Ebbesmeyer is most famous for ________.A.traveling widely the coastal cities of the world

B.making records for any lost objects on the sea

C.running a global currents research association

D.phoning about any doubtful objects on the sea

45.What is the purpose of the author in writing this passage?

A.To call people's attention to ocean pollution.B.To warn people of shipping safety in the ocean.C.To explain a unique way of studying ocean currents.D.To give tips on how to search for lost objects on the beach.ldlife, I specialize in zoology, and I’m a good observer与monitoring wildlife相匹配。Ⅲ 写作（共两节，满分40分）

Public Speaking Training

·Get a coach

so get help.Since there are about a billion companies out there all ready to offer you public speaking training and courses, here are some things to look for when deciding the training that's right for you.·Focus on positives

Any training you do to become more effective at public speaking should always focus on the positive aspects of what you already do well.Nothing can hurt confidence more than being told that you aren't doing so good public speaking training should develop those instead of telling you what you shouldn't do.·

If you find a public speaking course that looks as though it's going to give you lots of dos and don'ts, walk away!Your brain is so full of what you're going to be talking about.As far as we're concerned, there are basically no hard and fast rules about public speaking.Your audience can be your friends.·You are a special person not a clone

Most importantly, good public speaking training should treat you as a special one, with your own personal.Your training course should help you bring out your

personality, not try to turn you into someone you're not.A.You aren't like anybody else

B.You already do lots of things well

C.Turn your back on too many rules

D.Check the rules about dos and don'ts

E.Whatever the presentation, public speaking is tough

F.The one thing you don't want is for them to fall asleep

G.So trying to force a whole set of rules into it will just make things worse

第四篇：2009年广东高考英语试题及答案(A卷)

学期总结

很多情况下，同学们与老师很难直接沟通，老师无法顾及到每一位同学。学习委员就是同学与老师之间沟通的桥梁，因此我应该及时、定期的向老师反应同学们在学习方面遇到的问题，向同学们通知老师的教学安排以及要求。

本学期是同学们大一的第2学期，在学习方面也已经适应。老师布置的作业，我每次都用记事本记下来，然后通知提醒大家，作业内容以及交作业的时间。

期中考试时间、地点、测试内容，以及需要带什么东西，考试注意事项这些细节信息也能够即使传达给同学们。极大的方便了老师，与同学们之间的沟通。

然而，在给老师反馈同学们学习情况的方面，还存在不足，这是我的工作漏洞。通过工作总结，也让我及时发现了自己平时工作时存在的不足。

在平时的学习生活中，我没有能够深入了解同学们的学习情况以及在学习中存在的问题。因此，也就没有能够发现这些问题并解决问题。

具体办法就是，在今后的班会上，我会充分利用这个与同学们沟通的机会，而不是只是向同学们，总结近段时间学习方面的情况。

班会是一个非常好的沟通平台，我需要好好利用这个平台，与同学们沟通，交流。然后，及时向各科老师反应情况，寻求最好的解决问题的办法。

2.在学习工作中，总结有效，高效的学习方法，经验，心得。然后组织交流，提高同学们的成绩，以此促进同学们之间的联系，激发同学们的学习积极性。

本学期，通过平时的观察，我发现同学们在学习方面，通常存在的问题是，发现问题以后，不知道如何解决，因此就把解决问题推迟到明天，而明天又会推到后天。

老师不可能给每位同学 一一解答问题，尽管 这样，还是会存在一些没有解决的学习方面的问题。

通过总结，我找到了解决问题的方法，再今后的工作中，我会组织同学们之间 互帮互助，共同学习，有不会的题就找其他同学问，争取做到不把现在的问题放到明天解决。

关于考试方面，我已经着手准备复习方案，并且及时的与 2班学习委员取得联系，因为我们 1班和 2班的课程，一起上的比较多，也基本都是同一个老师。我及时与 2班学习委员交流工作经验，共同总结复习方案，以及期末考试的复习工作。

同时，我也及时与各科 老师进行沟通，询问期末考试的 范围，重点，题型，答题技巧等等，以便同学们能够更有针对性的复习，在即将到来的期末考试中，能够取得 一个比较满意的成绩。

具体工作内容是，将 与老师沟通交流得知的信息及时通知给大家，同时抓紧时间总结归纳，将一些会考到的知识点，题目，内容，需要掌握的内容，考试能用到的内容 整理到一起，联系生活委员，利用同学们的班费，把这些知识点打印出来，发给班里的每一位同学。

这样能使每一位同学能够有效，有针对性的复习，而不会感觉到很茫然，对复习无从下手。关于激发同学们学习积极性这方面，我没有能够做到有效提高同学们对学习的兴趣。很多工作还未完善，我在工作中，在寻求着最好的方法。

3.第三点，是关于学习委员自身的。作为学习委员，应该有一个相对比较好的成绩，正如杨老师说的一样，作为班委，首先是不能挂科，工作学习两不误。只有这样，接下来才能完成工作任务。

学习委员应该给同学们一个表率作用，带动同学们上课的积极性，调整班风。

具体的说，就是平时以身作则，上课认真听讲，积极配合老师的教学，踊跃回答问题，认真按时完成作业，端正学习态度，等等……

这方面很笼统，不容易很好的做到每一点，更不容易坚持。比如在积极回答问题方面，我应该向我们的班长学习，在上课做课堂 讲义 方面，我应该向其他的一些班委成员学习…… 班委成员，在班级里面应该是先进分子，好的榜样。

本学期，在严格要求自己，平时学习上做表率这些方面，总体上做得不错，上课能够认真听讲，积极配合老师的教学，有一个积极的学习态度，但也存在着一些问题，以及不足。首先我认为应该自我检讨，在一些方面我没有能够很好的做到位，有时候没有能够很好的安排好自己的事业和学业，不能彻底的克服自己，没有能够始终以身作则，做到好的表率。通过工作总结，我发现并且意识到了这方面的不足，在今后的工作中，我会及时的改善这些不足。

只有这样，才能够带动班级里面其他同学上课的积极性，调整班风。

经验：

本学期，在担任学习委员期间，让我受益匪浅，获得很多经验。首先，应该感谢同学们对我的信任、支持以及对我展开工作的配合。

同时我也积累了许多工作方法，工作态度方面的经验。

不管做什么事情，都要有不抛弃不放弃的精神，踏踏实实的态度，注重细节方面，从整体上把握。事情总是在发展的过程中变化着，我们应该学会适应。

作为学习委员，工作重心是学习方面，但是班委是一个不可分割的整体。正如我竞选的时候说的一样，班委成员工作侧重点不同，职责不同，但是目标都是相同的，——就是把班级建设的更好！

注重团队配合，在展开工作的时候多听取其他人的建议，虚心接受别人所提出的意见。我有信心，在今后的工作中，做得更好。同时，也希望我们 1班在未来的日子里，更加团结，更加奋进！

It was one of those terribly hot days in Baltimore.Needless to say, it was too hot to do anything outside.But it was also scorching in our apartment.This was 1962, and I would not live in a place with an air conditioner for another ten years.So my brother and I decided to leave the apartment to find someplace indoors.He suggested we could see a movie.It was a brilliant plan.Movie theaters were one of the few places you could sit

The kids in this village wear dirty, ragged clothes.They sleep beside cows and sheep in huts made of sticks and mud.They have no school.Yet they all can chant the English alphabet, and some can make words.The key to their success: 20 tablet computers(平板电脑)dropped off in their Ethiopian village in February by a U.S.group called One Laptop Per Child.The goal is to find out whether kids using today’s new technology can teach themselves to read in places where no schools or teachers exist.The Massachusetts Institute of Technology researchers analyzing the project data say they’re already amazed.―What I think has already happened is that the kids have already learned more than they would have in one year of kindergarten,‖ said Matt Keller, who runs the Ethiopia program.The fastest learner—and the first to turn on one of the tablets—is 8-year-old Kelbesa Negusse.The device’s camera was disabled to save memory, yet within weeks Kelbesa had figured out its workings and made the camera work.He called himself a lion, a marker of accomplishment

in Ethiopia.With his tablet, Kelbasa rearranged the letters HSROE into one of the many English animal names he knows.Then he spelled words on his own.―Seven months ago he didn’t know any English.That’s unbelievable,‖ said Keller.The project aims to get kids to a stage called ―deep reading,‖ where they can read to learn.It won’t be in Amharic, Ethiopia’s first language, but in English, which is widely seen as the ticket to higher paying jobs.62.How does the Ethiopia program benefit the kids in the village?
