科目:高中英語 來源:黑龍江省大慶試驗中學2009-2010學年高二下學期期中考試試題(英語) 題型:閱讀理解
How would you like an easy way to earn $2,500? All you have to do is to sit around and wait for your meals. There’s a catch, however. You have to stay in a chicken cage with a stranger for a whole week. There are no books or television or radio for amusement. You can’t leave until the week is up. And a camera will be recording your every move.
Two people actually took the job. The idea came from Rob Thompson, a video artist. He wanted to make a film about the way animals are treated. His goal was to raise people’s awareness of the living conditions of animals that are raised for food. He decided to pay $5,000 out of his own savings to two people who were willing to live like chickens for a week.
To Rob’s surprise, quite a few people answered his advertisement. He had interviews and selected Eric, a 24-year-old restaurant worker, and Pam, a 27-year-old chemist. The plan was for them to spend seven days together in a chicken cage that was six feet long and three feet wide. A camera would record their experience, which would take place in an art museum.
The week was long and difficult. They slept on a hard wooden floor. They couldn’t stand up without banging their heads. They ate vegetables and drink water from a garden hose-pipe(橡膠軟管). Their only privacy was a toilet surrounded by a curtain. There were no sinks, mirrors, or toothbrushes in the cage. Their only inspiration was the two framed checks that hung on the wall outside the cage. Visitors who came here were warned, “Do not feed the humans.”
Finally it was over, and Pam and Eric came out of the cage. They had survived the week, and they each had a $2,500 check in their hands. When Rob Thompson opened the cage, Eric came out, changed into clean clothes, and ate a chocolate bar right away. “It’s great for me to be able to stand up.” he said. Pam just changed her clothes and left. After a week of visitors and reporters watching her, she didn’t want to talk to anyone.
1.What kind of person is Rob Thompson?
A. He is curious about people’s personal life B.He is kind—hearted to animals
C.He dislike people around D. He likes to help poor people
2. The underlined word “catch”(in Paragraph 1) probably means _______.
A. unsolved problem B. surprising wonder
C. unbelievable condition D. hidden difficulty
3. What made it the most difficult for the two to stay in the cage?
A. That they had nothing for amusement.
B. That they couldn’t lie down to sleep in the cage.
C. That they had to do almost everything under others’ very eyes.
D. That they didn’t have meat to eat.
4. What would be the best title for this passage?
A. An Easy Way to Earn $2,500 B. Do Not Feed Humans
C. Living Like a Chicken D. Getting Along Well Anyway

Vince, Jason, Rosa, Danny和Donna各自打算參加學校的一個俱樂部。閱讀第71~75題中的個人情況說明和A到F六個俱樂部介紹,選出特合各人個性特征的最佳選項。選項中有一項是多余選項。
1. As a freshman in university, Vince enjoys a lot of spare time. But unlike some of his classmates who waste the time on sleep and computer games, he wants to make his spare time more colorful. He will use the first year to travel around to broaden his horizon.
2. Having traveled a lot, Jason realized the need to keep the beautiful scenery forever in his mind. So he saved money and bought a camera. Now all he needs is the skill to catch the breathtaking moment.
3. Smart and adorable, Rosa is a popular singer in her university. Besides, like an English-majored student, she speaks fluent and beautiful English. It always comes to her mind why not put singing and English together, it will be a perfect way to learn and entertain.
4. Everyone has a dream, so does Danny. He dreamed of becoming a diplomat(外交官) since childhood. So he likes to read the books concerning politics, economy and foreign affairs. His classmates thus gave him the nickname "Mr. Know Everything".
5. Donna spent her childhood mostly in her father's study, where she did a lot of readings about Chinese classical literatures. Now as a college student, she thinks she should make full use of her free time to read as many literary books as possible.
A.Siyuan Club It was founded in September, 2007. Our club is aimed at bringing students into traditional Chinese culture and classical literature. We have had some outings for visiting cultural relics and watched art movies related to Eastern and Western ancient cultures. All these activities can build a good link between Chinese and Western cultures.

There are 12 members and 4 meetings have been held on the discussion of several different topics. Students are encouraged to focus on the happenings in the world and build their own opinions.
C.Mathematics Club It is an academically-oriented club organized by students who are interested in mathematics, who are strong or even weak at mathematics. It is like an extended stage to continuously study mathematics outside the classroom. There are about 45 club members arranging regular team work, collecting updated exercises for extra practice, organizing lecture notes for revision and recruiting new members.
D.Photographic Club It was established by a group of shutterbugs with the purpose of promoting an interest in photography.
