Even though my grandfather was a farmer, my grandmother would iron his work clothes every day.

Because I watched her do this through my childhood, I figured every old woman in the world did it. But as the years passed, I began to question this practice. Why in the world did grandfather need his work clothes ironed? Most days, he never saw anyone but me and maybe a few other crusty(易怒的) farmers.

Grandmother never ironed my clothes, and I surely didn’t see any use in doing it for myself. My clothes were usually so dirty by 9 a.m. that any sign of ironing would be long gone.

One day when I was about 13, I asked grandmother about it. I wanted to know why she thought it necessary to devote time and effort to pressing clothes that were rarely seen and would be dirty in just a short time.

Her reply was as sweet a sentiment as I have ever heard.

She told me that grandfather was the most handsome man in the world. She loved every chance she got to show him off and make the rest of the world jealous(妒忌) that he was hers.

She said, “I want him to feel beautiful. I iron his clothes every day because for all these years, he has made me feel beautiful. He is a man worthy of respect.”

The years went on, and I watched grandmother and grandfather grow old together. I was probably 30 when I understood what beauty really was—it was grandmother ironing grandfather’s clothes happily.

28. In Paragraph 2, what may the underlined words “this practice” mean?

A. Grandmother never ironed my school clothes. B. Grandfather didn’t need his work clothes ironed.

C. Grandfather never saw anyone but me and some farmers. D. Grandmother always ironed grandfather’s work clothes.

29. Why didn’t the writer think it necessary to iron his clothes for himself?

A. Because he wanted to make his grandmother feel beautiful by ironing her clothes.

B. Because he never saw anyone but his grandfather and maybe a few other farmers.

C. Because he loved every chance he got to show off and make the rest of the world jealous. D. Because his clothes were often so dirty by 9 a.m. that nobody could see any sign of ironing. 30. What’s probably the title of this passage?

A. The Ironing with Love B. My Beautiful Grandmother C. Let Others Green with Envy D. Make His Clothes Beautiful

Andy Warhol was one of the most popular artists in the pop art movement that came up in the 1950s in the United States and Great Britain. During his career he produced painting, films, ads and other works of art.

一模英语 共10页 第4页

While in high school Warhol took art classes and drew sketches(素描) at the Carnegie Museum. Later Warhol studied art in Pittsburgh and after moving to New York in 1949, he began to work as an illustrator(插图画家) for magazines such as The New Yorker or Vogue. During this time he started using a special technique to draw images for ads.

During the 1960s, Andy Warhol mainly painted realistic pictures of everyday items. This style became known as pop art. Among his most famous paintings were comic strips, images of Coca Cola bottles and the electric chair. In his drawings Warhol simplified objects and painted them in many different colors.

The center of Warhol’s life was his art studio, called the Factory. There he met many other famous artists. The Factory was also used as a film studio in which Andy Warhol produced many of his famous underground films.

In 1968 an unsuccessful actress, Valerie Solanas, walked into Warhol’s studio and shot the artist. Warhol never fully get well from this event. In 1987 Warhol died at the age of 58 during an operation.

Like many village police stations in England, the building was Sergeant Keddle’s house, too. The front room was his office. We rang and waited.

“Hello, boys,” said the old policeman when he opened the door. “What can I do for you?” “We’d like to talk to you, please, Sergeant Keddle,” I said.

“Right, boys. Come in, then,” he answered, and showed us into his office. We sat on two chairs in front of his desk while he went and sat behind it.

“So, what’s the problem?” he asked.

And we told him everything we knew. We showed him our records, maps, photographs. And then we told him of our plan for the evening.

He stood up and walked up and down in front of the window for a minute or so, then he turned around and looked at us both.

“It’s very irregular(不合规范的), you know,” he said. “And if anything goes wrong we could

all be in trouble, especially me.”

“But, Sergeant Keddle,” Mike said. “We’ve got everything perfectly planned and ready. Nothing will go wrong, and when we catch Roberts you’ll get nothing but praise for your good work.”

“Please, Sergeant Keddle,” I added. “Catch this man and get him convicted(给某人定罪) so he can’t steal any more eggs.”

He thought for a while longer, and then suddenly said: “Right, boys. Let’s do it.” “Thank you, Sergeant Keddle,” we both said together, very relieved(宽慰的).

“Let’s go over all the arrangements,” he said, “But first, give me the numbers of the two vehicles so that I can have them checked. ”

He phoned up the County Police Headquarters and asked them to call him back with details. We sat and discussed everything: where we were going to meet, that we would have to be quiet and that we shouldn’t put the lights on until the right moment. We asked Sergeant Keddle to come in his own car rather than the police car and told him where to park.

While we were talking, the information came through about the cars. As expected the white van belonged to Steve Roberts, and we found out the name of the climbers: Bill Henderson from Leicester.

“That’s good,” said the policeman. “We know exactly who they are and where they’re from. That gives us a big advantage.”

We talked some more, and went over everything one last time. Then we arranged to meet Sergeant Keddle at nine o’clock that evening and we left. Mike and I cycled back to his house and had something to eat.

34. How does the policeman feel about their plan at first?

A. Doubtful. B. Surprised. C. Angry. D. Unhappy. 35. Why do the boys want the police to catch Roberts?

A. Because they try to prevent him stealing eggs. B. Because they hope to get praise from the police. C. Because they expect Sergeant Keddle to be praised. D. Because they have got everything perfectly planned.

36. Put the following statements in the correct order according to the story.

① The police got the information about the cars. ② The boys visited Sergeant Keddle’s police station.

③ The boys collected records, maps and photographs. ④ Sergeant Keddle agreed to catch Roberts in the end.

A. ③②①④ B. ③②④① C. ①④③② D. ①④②③

“Helicopter parent” which means a parent who pays extremely close attention to his or her child may not sound pleasant, but most parents would prefer a vehicle to send children between school, football practice and piano lessons. Getting children where they need to go is a huge task especially in homes where both parents work. Hailing rides(专车服务) like Uber has made life

一模英语 共10页 第6页

more convenient for adults. But drivers are not allowed to pick up kids who travels without an adult aside (although some drivers are against the rules).

Children represent a fresh-faced opportunity. Ride-hailing for kids could be a market worth at least $50 billion in America, hopes Ritu Narayan, the founder of Zum. The services are similar to Uber’s, except they allow parents to plan rides for their children ahead. Children are given a code word to make sure they find the right driver, and parents receive warnings about the ride and the car’s speed. These services promise more careful background checks, finger printing and training than other ride-hailing companies.

Annette Yolas, who works at AT&T, says that she spends around $200 a month on Hop Skip Drive, a service that operates in several markets in California, for her three kids to get to the school bus on time and to ballet practice. She says it has been a “life-saver” by allowing her to work longer hours.

But ride-hailing companies for kids may face several challenges. One is finding enough drivers. All users need rides during the same limited set of hours: before and after school, which makes it hard to offer drivers enough work. It can also be challenging to get parents’ support, who have taught children never to get in a stranger’s car.

And while ride-sharing companies can drive adult passengers mad by cancelling or being late, such behavior can be a disaster to children. Shuddle, an early competitor in the taxis-for-kids business, which shut down in 2016, had only two out of five stars on Yelp(点评网站) for that reason, and lots of negative reviews from parents. It had made money on rides mainly by raising prices even higher.

Shuddle’s failure has not discouraged Uber, which is expected soon to set up a programme for teenagers under 18. Parents may be happier to use services they are familiar with. But Uber’s entrance is likely to add to the struggle of child-ride-hailing businesses as they compete for customers and money.

37. What do “helicopter parents” usually do?

A. They drive a helicopter to send their children to school. B. They pay no attention to the school life of their children.

C. They stay close to their children and ready to protect them. D. They let their children solve the problems all by themselves. 38. What does the underlined phrase “a fresh-faced opportunity” refer to?

A. A new market. B. A new event. C. A new lesson. D. A new challenge. 39. What is the purpose of giving the example of Annete Yolas?

A. To encourage more drivers into the business.

B. To meet the needs of children attending courses. C. To show the good points of the ride-hailing service.

D. To help more parents to avoid the ride-hailing service. 40. What may be the future of those small ride-hailing companies?

A. They may get better reviews. B. They may make much more money. C. They may struggle to survive. D. They may easily attract more customers.

The concept of homeschooling is not a new one. Homeschooling means educating children at home instead of sending them to public or private schools. Nowadays, homeschooling has become popular in the USA for a lot of reasons. One of them is poor quality of education in public schools and it’s also because of the high cost in private schools. Some parents believe that because they know their child’s strengths and weaknesses, they can teach him or her better. Some parents

一模英语 共10页 第8页

prefer homeschooling so as to prevent their children from getting into bad company. There is another group of people who choose to educate their children at home because they want them to learn their religious beliefs. They also think that homeschooling would help in development of strong family bonds(家庭纽带).

However, there are some negative influences of homeschooling on students as well as parents.

Homeschooling is a full-time job and not fit for parents who have their own careers. It takes a lot of time for parents’ side to make homeschooling a success. Other family members’ responsibilities may also be affected. They may give their full attention to the needs of their children. Besides, a parent may have high educational qualifications, but that does not make him or her a good teacher. Teaching is an art, which requires the ability to understand the needs of the children. It may be difficult for the parents to explain the concepts to their children.

In today’s world, competition is seen in every field, and school prepares children to face these competitions. However, homeschooling does not give the children a chance to compare with other kids. They will also not be aware of where they stand in educational position among their classmates. This may affect their lives. Education is not the only thing that the children need to become successful human beings. It is necessary that they learn to communicate in the society, and public school provides them with such an environment, where they meet many people. Schools also provide children with a chance to take part in different activities to improve their overall development.

It is true that it has many advantages, but one must get to know that school teaches children skills to survive.

Some parts of these robots are made of toy-shop materials. They c 67 about 100 dollars. After being put in small b 68 , the paper robots will start to walk slowly. They transform from paper i 69 four-legged robots in just four minutes.

The robots are about 15 cm long, 15 cm wide and 5 cm tall. You can see that each of them is n 70 as big as a book. Each of the robots w 71 less than 85 grams. They move 5 cm per second.

Scientists think that these robots may s 73 a robotic revolution() in the future. They believe that one day when someone wants a robot to walk his dog or play chess with him, he could go to a
