A. which B. where C. when D. that
【答案】B
【解析】
试题分析:考查非限制性定语从句。先行词是at Stanford University,定语从句主谓宾都有。结合句意可知缺少地点状语,故用关系副词where来引导从句,修饰限制at Stanford University。句意:索耶先生在斯坦福大学开始他的职业生涯,他在 2002 年成为斯坦福大学的物理学教授。故选B。
考点:考查非限制性定语从句。

【答案】A
【解析】
试题分析:考查非限制性定语从句。本题中的关系代词as指代前面一句话的内容,在句中做主语。As is often the case这是常有的事情。句意:在很多社会里这是常有的事情,节俭和努力对每个人都很重要。That不能引导非限制性定语从句,where和when只能在句中做状语。故A正确。

A【重庆市南开中学2016届高三月考】
Each spring brings a new blossom of wildflowers in the ditches(沟渠)along the highway I travel daily to work.
There is one particular blue flower that has always caught my eye. I've noticed that it blooms only in the morning hours; the afternoon sun is too warm for it. Every
day for approximately two weeks, I see those beautiful
flowers.
This spring, I started a wildflower garden in our yard. I can look out of the kitchen window while doing the dishes and see the flowers. I've often thought that those lovely blue flowers from the ditch would look great in that bed alongside other wildflowers. Every day I drove past the flowers thinking, "I'II stop on my way home and dig them." "Gee, I don't want to get my good clothes dirty.,." Whatever the reason, I never stopped to dig them. My husband even gave me a folding tool one year for my trunk to be used for that expressed purpose.
One day on my way home from work, I was upset to see that the highway department had removed the ditches
and the pretty blue flowers were gone. I thought to myself, "Way to go, you waited too long. You should have done it when you first saw them blooming this spring."
A week ago we were shocked and sad to learn that my oldest sister-in-law has a serious brain disease. She is20 years older than my husband and unfortunately, because of age and distance, we haven't been as close as we all would have liked. I couldn't help but see the connection between the pretty blue flowers and the relationship between my husband's sister and us. I do believe that God has given us some time left to plant some wonderful
memories that will bloom every year for us.
And yes, if I see the blue flowers again, you can bet I'll stop and transplant them to my wildflower garden.
1. Why does the writer want to start a wildflower garden in her yard?
A. Because the flowers bloom only in the morning hours.
B. Because she can see the flowers every day for two weeks.
C. Because the flowers can remind her of her oldest sister-in-law.
D. Because she enjoys the way of life in company with the flowers.
2. Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?
A. The blue flowers in the ditches always draw my attention.
B. We don't get on well with the sister-in-law in practice.
C. I never stopped to dig the flowers for some reason.
D. The sister-in-law lives far from us.
3. According to the passage, the writer will .
A. stop to find the flowers whenever she drives along the highway
B. plant a variety of flowers in the garden in her yard in future
C. get as wonderful memories with the sister-in-law as before
D. get more close to the sister-in-law in the following days
4. What is the theme of the story?
A. Actions speak louder than words. B. No sweets without sweat.
C. Time and tide wait for no man. D. Opportunity belongs to whoever is prepared.
【答案】
1.D 2.B 3.D 4.C
2.B考查推理判断题。根据第四段提到unfortunately, because of age and distance, we haven't been as close as we all would have liked不幸地是,因为年龄和距离,我们并没有那么亲密,故选B项。
3.D 考查细节理解题。根据第四段提到I couldn't help but see the connection between the pretty blue flowers and the relationship between my husband's sister and us我不禁看到花与我们和姐姐的关系之间的这种联系,故如果能重来,肯定会与姐姐更亲密,故选D项。
4.C主旨大意题。通读全文可知作者写这篇文章主要是告诉人们,当机会来的时候不要让他错过。故选A。
B【重庆市南开中学2016届高三月考】
Are you sometimes a little tired and sleepy in the early afternoon? Many people
feel this way after lunch. They may think that eating lunch is the cause of the sleepiness. Or, in summer, they may think it is the heat. However, the real reason lies inside their bodies. At that time - about eight hours after you wake up - your body temperature goes down. This is what makes you slow down and feel sleepy. Scientists have tested sleep habits in experiments where there was no night or day. The people in these experiments almost always followed a similar sleeping pattern. They slept for one long period and then for one short period about eight hours later.
In many parts of the world, people take naps in the middle of the day. This is especially true in warmer
climates, where the heat makes work difficult in the early afternoon. Researchers are now saying that naps are good for everyone in any climate. A daily nap gives one a more rested body and mind and therefore is good for health in general. In countries where naps are traditional, people often suffer less from problems such as heart disease.
Many working people, unfortunately, have no time to take naps. Though doctors may advise taking naps,
employers do not allow it! If you do have the chance, however, here are a few tips about making the most of your nap. Remember that the best time to take a nap is about eight hours after you get up. A short sleep too late in the day may only make you feel more tired and sleepy afterward, This can also happen if you sleep for too long. If you do not have enough time, try a short nap - even ten minutes of sleep can be helpful.
5. If you get up at 6:30 am, what is the best time for you to take a nap?
A. About 12:30 pm. B. About l:30 pm.
C. About 2:30 pm. D. About 3:30 pm.
6. What can we infer from the passage?
A. Your body temperature's going down also makes you feel sleepy besides eating lunch:
B. Taking a nap whenever you want will do good to your health.
C. You will feel less sleepy if you sleep for a long time,
D. You will feel sleepy at regular intervals.
7. What would be the best title for the text?
A. Just for a Rest
B. All for a Nap
C. A Special Sleep Pattern
D. Taking Naps in Warmer Climate
【答案】
5.C
6.D
7.B
【解析】
试题分析: 本文分析了人们在午后困的原因,并建议我们午后小睡一会,解释了这样做的重要性
5.C计算题。根据文章第4行At that time – about eight hours after you wake up – your body temperature goes down.可知在苏醒以后8个小时,人体的温度下降,人会犯困,故6:30起床,8个小时以后就是下午2点30,故C正确
C 【重庆市南开中学2016届高三月考】
Though the facts that too many people on earth and a too rapid increase in the number added each year are not in argument, we always begin the discussion of "population as global issue" with what most persons mean like this. It was quite right to compare demographic growth to "a long, thin powder fuse(导火线)that bums steadily and hesitatingly until it finally reaches the charge and explodes".
To understand the current situation, which is characterized by rapid increases in population, it is necessary to understand the history of population trends. Rapid growth is a comparatively recent phenomenon. Looking back at the 8,000 years of demographic history, we find that populations have been virtually stable or growing
very slightly for most of human history. For most of our ancestors, life was hard, often nasty, and very short. There was high fertility(生育)in most places, but this was usually balanced by high mortality. For most of human history, it was seldom the case that one in ten persons would live past forty, while infancy and childhood were especially risky periods. Often, societies were in clear danger of extinction because death rates could exceed their birthrates. Thus, the population problem throughout most of history was how to prevent extinction of the human race.
This pattern is important to notice. Not only does it put the current problems of demographic growth into a historical perspective, but it suggests that the cause of rapid increase in population in recent years is not a sudden
enthusiasm for more children, but an improvement in the conditions that traditionally have caused high mortality.
Demographic history can be divided into two major periods: a time of long, slow growth which extended from about 8000 B.C. till approximately 1650 A.D. In the first period of some 9,600 years, the population increased from some 8 million to 500 million in 1650. Between 1650 and 1975, the population has increased from 500 million to more than 4 billion. And the population reached 6.2 billion throughout the world by the year 2000, One way to appreciate this dramatic difference in such abstract numbers is to reduce the time frame to something that is more manageable. Between 8000 B.C. and 1650, an average of only 50,000 persons was being added annually to the world's population, At present, this number is added every six hours. The increase is about 800000,000 persons annually.
8. The underlined word "demographic" in Paragraph l means .
A. extinction of human B. statistics of human population
C. death rate of human D. development of human population
9. Which of the following demographic growth patterns is most similar to the long thin powder fuse?
A. A slow growth for a long time and then a period of rapid, dramatic increase.
B. Too many people on earth and a few rapid increases in the number added each year.
C. A virtually stable or slightly decreasing period and then a sudden explosion of population.
D. A long period when death rates exceed birthrates and then a short period with higher fertility and lower
mortality.
10.During the first period of demographic history, societies were often in danger of extinction because .
A. only one in ten persons could live past 40.
B. our ancestors had little enthusiasm for more children
C. there was higher mortality than fertility in most places
D. it was too dangerous to have babies due to the poor conditions
11. The author of the passage intends to .
A. warn people against the population explosion in the near future
B. find out the cause of rapid increase in population in recent years
C. present us a brief and clear picture of the demographic growth
D. compare the demographic growth pattern in the past with that after 1650

8.B
9.A

【答案】
Dear Editor,
I am a high school student who will graduate next year. Since I entered Grade Three, I have found that some students in our class study harder than before. They study late into night, eating snacks and drinking Coca-Coca, which is bad for their health and even leads to many students becoming fatter and fatter. In the morning , due to staying up too late, some students are not able to get up in time and often have to go to school without breakfast, which is also a bad habit and will surely do great harm to their health.
In my personal opinion, important as studies are, health should also be taken seriously. Faced with such heavy study pressure, not only should we try to eat in a healthy way, but we also should get as much rest as possible. Meanwhile, we should properly arrange our study time among the subjects, avoiding spending too much time on some special subjects. Only in his way can we keep fit and study effectively.
I wonder if you can agree with me. Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Your faithfully,
Li Hua
