根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容，從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。

As we all know, different countries have different cultures. The cultures of the East and the West really distinguish each other a lot. 1.

The origin of the eastern cultures is mainly from two countries: China and India. Both of the two cultures are fostered by rivers—the Yellow River in China and the Hindu River in India. 2.

Then in Tang Dynasty of China, the Chinese culture gradually went overseas to Japan, mixed into the Japanese society and shaped the Japanese culture nowadays. Though a bit different from the Chinese one, it belongs to the same system.

When the two mother rivers gave birth to the Eastern culture, another famous culture was brought up on the Mesopotamian Plain—the Mesopotamian Civilization. This civilization later on developed into the cultures of Ancient Greece and Ancient Rome. 3. Like the Chinese culture, the European one also crossed waters. When the British settled down in America, their culture went with them over the Atlantic Ocean. So the American culture doesn’t distinguish from the European one a lot.

4. Take the language system for example. In the East, most languages belong to the pictographic language while the Western languages are mostly based on the Latin system. Other causes like human race difference counts as well. But what’s more, due to the far distance and the steep areas between the East and West, the two cultures seldom communicate until recent centuries. So they grew up totally in their own ways with almost no interference (干擾) from the other.

The differences are everywhere. 5. But different cultures make the world of 21st century more colorful. The cultural gap should not be the obstacle (障礙) to the civilization of human being. It ought to be the motivation of our going farther.

A. Let us work together to keep a variety of culture.

B. And these two are well-known as the base of the European culture.

C. One important thing is to learn about other cultures.

D. They helped the two cultures develop for centuries and form their own styles.

E. They are obvious and affect people’s ways of thinking and their views of the world.

F. At the same time, some other differences add to the cultural differences.

G. This is because the culture systems are two separate systems on the whole.

When my daughter Sally was five, I bought Grimm’s Fairy Tales and read Snow White to her one night. At the end of the original Grimm tale, Snow White’s stepmother is made to put on red-hot iron shoes and dance until she falls down dead.

This came as something of a shock. I always thought fairytales had happy endings. And I didn’t want my five-year-old daughter going to sleep thinking: “Thank goodness they tortured (折磨) that old woman to death.” That’s when I decided to write fairy tales.

In the years that followed, I wrote tales non-stop and read them to Sally at bedtime. The Corn Dolly was based on a child who was always complaining; The Silly King was just a silly story Sally loved; I wrote The Witch and the Rainbow Cat for Sally because of her enormous appetite for stories about witches while Dr Bonocolus’s Devil is a new version of the Faust legend．

Nifobobinus, however, was different. I wrote this book when Sally was older and took up all things girls have to do — who’s friends with who, who stuck a sticker on the back of whose boyfriend, or whatever thing she felt funny.

Nicobobinus, the boy who could do anything, came out of my desire for a more innocent world. He lived a 1ong time ago, in a city called Venice. Only his best friend, Rosie, knew he could, and nobody took any notice of anything Rosie said, because she was always having wild ideas anyway.

Nicobobinus was so different that it turned out to be an instant hit. The Times called me “an author setting out to rival the classic fairytales”. I asked Sally what she thought of Nicobobinus. She said it was her favourite.

1.What led the writer to start writing fairy tales for her daughter?

A. The frightening ends of past fairy tales.

B. His daughter’s strong interest in fairy tales.

C. His desire to let his daughter know more stories.

D. His attempt to fill his daughter’s bedtime with something.

2.We can infer from the third paragraph that the writer _____.

A. was a very productive fairy tale writer

B. based all his stories on some old legends

C. never described witches in his fairy tales

D. created his stories out of his own interest

3.When creating Nicobobinus, the first thing the writer considered was _____.

A. the changes of his daughter’s interests

B. what story the publisher wanted to get

C. ways to keep his daughter Sally innocent

D. the difference of the story from other stories

4.The underlined word “rival” in the last paragraph can be replaced by _____.

A. follow B. explore C. challenge D. recommend

科目：高中英語(yǔ) 來(lái)源：2015-2016學(xué)年江西贛州十三縣市高一上期中聯(lián)考英語(yǔ)試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

Are people less happy or more happy the older they get ? A study found that people generally become happier and experience less worry after age 50. In fact, it found that by the age of 85, people are happier with their life than they were at 18.

The finding came from a Gallup survey of more than 340,000 adults in the United States in 2008. At that time, the people were between the age of 18 an 85.

Arthur Stone in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science at Stony Brook University in New York led the study. His team found that levels of stress were highest among adults between the ages of 22 and 25. Stress levels dropped sharply after people reached their fifties.

Happiness was highest among the youngest adults and those in their early seventies. But the people least likely to report feeling negative emotions(消極情緒) were those in their seventies and eighties. The survey also found that men and women had similar emotional patterns as they grow older. However, women at all ages reported more sadness, stress and worry than men did.

The researchers also considered possible influences like having young children, being unemployed or being single. But they found that influences like these did not affect the levels of happiness and well-being related to age.

So why would happiness increase with age ? One theory is that, as people get older, they become more thankful for what they have and have better control of their emotions. They also spend less time thinking about bad experiences.

The original(最初的) goal of the study was to confirm the popular belief that aging is connected with increased sleep problems. The survey did find an increase during middle age, especially in women. But except for that , people reported that they felt their sleep quality improved as they got older.

1.Old people may be happier probably because _________

A. their children have grown up.

B. they don’t have to work every day.

C. they can do whatever they like best.

D. they are most likely satisfied with life.

2.According to the survey, when will adults feel most stressful?

A. In their twenties. B. In their fifties.

C. In their seventies. D. In their eighties.

3.What may make Arthur Stone a bit surprised?

A. Women usually live longer than men.

B. Middle-age men mostly are very rich.

C. Old people usually have a better sleep.

D. Most of old people can’t sleep well at night.

4.Which of the following may be the topic of this passage ?

A. The difference between men and women.

B. Old people’s feeling of happiness.

C. The young people and the old people.

D. The connection of sleep and happiness.

Part Ⅲ Reading Comprehension (30 marks)

Directions： Read the following three passages. Each passages is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked with A， B， C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage.

A

As we all know， the Dragon Boat Festival is our country’s traditional festival， but do you know there is also a Dragon Boat Festival in South Korea， which also falls on May 5 of the lunar calendar(陰歷)？ It has been reported that South Korea will apply to United Nations Educational， Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO 聯(lián)合國(guó)教科文組織) to make the celebration of the Dragon Boat Festival its own intangible cultural heritage (非物質(zhì)的文化遺產(chǎn)). If successful， people from other countries may see the Dragon Festival as a Korean creation.

As the birthplace of the yearly event more than 2,000 years ago， China is not happy with the situation. “It would be a shame if another country successfully made a traditional Chinese festival part of its own cultural heritage ahead of China，” said Zhou Heping， deputy(副) culture minister. The Chinese Ministry of Culture is even thinking of making its own application(申請(qǐng)) to UNESCO， covering all traditional Chinese festivals， including the Dragon Boat event. It is thought that the festival is held in memory of the great poet Qu Yuan (340－278 BC)， who lived in the State of Chu during the Warring States Period. Qu was known to be a patriot (愛(ài)國(guó)者) and admired by ordinary people.

He is said to have jumped into Miluo River， because he had lost hope in his country’s future. When people heard about Qu’s death， they sailed up and down the river searching for his body. They also beat the drums to frighten away the fish and threw Zongzi into the water to stop the fish touching Qu. Dragon boat racing is said to come from this search for the poet’s body.

Over the years， the Dragon Boat Festival has spread throughout the world. In Japan and Vietnam， as well as South Korea， the festival has mixed with and become part of the local culture.

1.The Dragon Boat Festival .

A. is also kept by South Korea

B. comes from South Korea

C. was created by South Korea

D. is South Korea’s cultural heritage

2.What is the reaction(反應(yīng)) of the Chinese Ministry of Culture to South Korea’s planning to make the Dragon Boat Festival its own cultural heritage？

A. Fighting against South Korea.

B. Telling South Korea it’s not right to do so.

C. Considering to do the similar thing.

D. Asking South Korea not to do so.

3.What is the purpose of holding the Dragon Boat Festival？

A. In memory of Qu Yuan.

B. In memory of all the patriots of China.

C. To frighten away the fish.

D. In honor of QuYuan’s birthday.

4.After Qu Yuan’s death， Zongzi was thrown into the water to .

A. feed him

B. protect his body from going bad
