2022高三英语阅读理解专题加强练之七选五(含答案详解)(A)Productivity, a measure of productive efficiency, is essential in our life. However, sometimes we get lost in social media apps, emails, and conversations. ____1____. In this article, you'll find four vital tips to help you polish up your productivity.Set-up time intervalsProductivity is related to timing. Some experts suggest using the 15-minute rule. Divide your time into 15-minute intervals and time yourself. Timing the process urges you to complete the task as soon as possible without wasting time. ____2____Reduce distractions____3____ Alternatively, you can download an app that mutes (消音)specific applications such as social media, while notifying when you get a new email. Putting your phone away can also work or setting a custom sound for each application.____4____Whether you get stuck in traffic or you get stuck in the elevator, use that time to get things done: answering emails, brainstorming, or calling someone. Remember there are plenty of alternative options for meetings and face- to-face activities. You can even join through a virtual meeting from your phone while you wait in line.Prepare for tasks mentallySometimes, the reason why we delay is the fact that we're not mentally ready for a task.

The actual total number could be around 7,000 if it includes the museums in universities and other institutions.____4____ A problem is that the number of museums specializing in natural history in China is still outweighed by their counterparts focusing on human history, which could be a challenge when designing syllabuses in smaller cities.Museums can be places for children to comprehensively expand their horizons of knowledge, nurture their artistic tastes and improve their sense of aesthetics. ____5____ But it cannot only be popular for a short time.

Most people prefer special moments, such as an outing day or a vacation.G. Doing this you may have less worry about the future or regret over the past.(E)My husband and I just spent a week in Paris. 1 So the first thing we did was rent a fantastically expensive sixth-floor apartment the size of a cupboard. It was so tiny that we had toleave our suitcases in the hallway.The place wasn’t entirely au thentic, though. Unlike a normal Parisian apartment, the plumbing (水管) worked. 2 Our building even had a tiny lift with a female voice that said, “Ouverture des portes,” in perfect French. That is the only French phrase I mastered, and it’s a shame I d on’t have much use for it.Parisians are different from you and me. They never look lazy or untidy. As someone noted in this paper a couple of weeks ago, they eat great food and never gain weight. 3 French strawberries do not taste like cardboard. Instead, they explode in your mouth like little flavor bombs.4 On our first morning in Paris, I went around the corner to the food market to pick up some groceries. I bought a handful of perfectly ripe small strawberries and a little sweet melon. My husband and I agreed they were the best fruit we had ever eaten. But they cost $3!In France, quality of life is much more important than efficiency (效率). You can tell this by café life. French cafés are always crowded. 5 When do these people work? The French take their 35-hour workweek seriously — so seriously that some labor unions recently struck a deal with a group of companies limiting the number of hours that independent contractors can be on call.A. Not all the customers are tourists.B. The quality of life in France is equally excellent.C. There was a nice kitchen and a comfortable bed.D. The amazing food is mainly consumed by local farmers.E. That’s not th e only reason the French eat less than we do.F. Our aim was to see if we could live, in some way, like real Parisians.G. The food is so delicious that you don’t need much of it to make you happy.(F)Swap, Don’t shop!You keep hearing about recycling, right? But it doesn't end with bottles, cans, and paper. Clothing takes a huge amount of natural resources(资源)to make, and buying loads of new clothing(or throwing out old clothing)is not healthy for the environment. So what to do with allthose perfectly-good-but-you're-maybe-a-little-sick-of-them clothes piled on your bedroom floor? ____1____. It's the best way to get rid of your used clothes, score clothes from your friends, and have a party all at the same time.A successful swap depends on the selection of clothes, the organization of the event, and, obviously, how much fun is had. It's really easy to do! Here are a few pointers.●Invite 5—10 people so you have a nice selection. ____2____ , and there may not be enough things to choose from; more than that, and it becomes uncontrollable.●____3____. They should also prepare plenty of reusable bags to carry their "new" clothes home.●Put different types of clothing on different surfaces in the room.____4____. Place a few mirrors around your room so people can see how things look when they try them on. One of the ground rules of the swap should be that everyone must try on the clothes before they take them—things always look different when you put them on.●Set a starting time. Maybe you say “go,” or turn o n a certain song, or whatever. ____5____. And don't forget to put out some cookies and fruits. Remember, it's a party!A. Less people than thatB. Hold a clothing swapC. If two people are competingD. Just keep music playing throughoutE. Donate whatever clothes are left overF Have everyone put their clothes in the right spotsG. Tell everyone to bring clean clothes in good condition参考答案(A)1:根据上文“Productivity, a measure of productive efficiency, is essential in our life. However, sometimes we get lost in social media apps, emails, and conversations.(生产力是衡量生产效率的标准,在我们的生活中是必不可少的。

2022届高三英语阅读专项训练之七选五(含答案及部分解析)

2022届高三英语阅读专项训练之七选五(含答案及部分解析)

2022高三英语阅读专项训练之七选五(A)How to Improve Your MemoryThe human brain is extremely complex and powerful. 1.Here are three simple things that will help you improve your memory and keep it going strong into your old age.Get plenty of exercise and rest.Exerci se isn’t just good for your physical body, but it is also good for your brain. Exercise increases the amount of oxygen that gets to your brain. 2.When you exercise, your brain produces certain chemicals that help to protect your brain cells. Rest is also an important part of improving your memory. Studies show that key memory improvement happens when you are in those deep stages of sleep, so go to bed early every night.Have a good laugh as often as you can.Not only is laughter good for the soul, it is also good for the brain and can help improve your memory.3.This helps you to learn more and be more creative. So, go ahead and belt out a good laugh. Not only will others join you, but you will feel much better after doing it.4.Stress has a bad effect on your body, especially the brain. If you let stress stay, it can destroy your brain cells and cause damage to the part of the brain responsible for creating new memories and remembering old ones. So, stay away from stress. It’s bad for you. If you are fee ling a little stressed, go outside and take a little walk around. 5.A.It also helps to reduce memory lossB.Avoid stress.C.Change your behavior.D.This will make you feel ten times better.E.When you laugh you excite many areas of your brain.F.The health of your brain directly shows how strong your memory is.G.The human brain is like a muscle and can be trained.(B)Memories are important, but as we age our memory declines. The good news is that scientistshave been learning more about our brain’s amaz ing ability to change and grow, even in old age. 1 Learn something new.Memory strength is like muscular strength. The more you use it, the stronger it gets. But you can’t lift the same size weight every day and expect to get stronger. You’ll need to keep your brain constantly challenged. 2Repeat and retrieve.When you learn new information, you’re more likely to record that information if it’s repeated. Repeat what you hear out loud. ___3___ Write it down and read it aloud. But the work doesn’t stop there. You’ll need to try to retrieve the information without looking at it later. Testing yourself to retrieve the information is better than repeated studying.Drink water.Water acts as a shock absorber for the brain. 4 A small amount of dehydration(脱水) can have disastrous effects. Mild dehydration has been shown to cause brain shrinkage and memory damage. Aim for at least eight to ten glasses per day.5Another common mistake is relying on the GPS every time you drive. Researchers found relying on response techniques for navigation shrinks a part of our brain. Try to get to your destination using your brain. Perhaps use GPS to get there, but use your brain to get back home. Your brain will thank you for the extra challenge.A. Lose the GPS.B. Try using it in a sentence.C. Don’t turn to Google right away.D. It helps our brain cells use nutrients.E. Learning a new skill is an excellent way.F. Research shows that repetition is an ineffective learning tool.G. The following are some effective methods for improving memory.(C)British education provides a reliable pathway to the best universities in the world/ but what really defines British education?At its simplest, it can be seen as a curriculum(课程) that is common to most schools in England and Wales. 1 The National Curriculum leads to GCSE (at age 16) and A level examinations (at age 18). These are qualifications recognized by universities and employers around the world.2 Teachers in the UK tend to emphasize learning to think and to work things out for oneself over learning facts. Delivering interesting lessons is seen as an important part of the teacher's role, based on the precondition that we learn much better when we feel motivated.British education is also associated with activities that take place beyond the classroom. There’re various organized games, outdoor and extra course activities. 3Education in the UK is heavily infused(灌输) with liberal ideas and personal responsibili-ty.4 The curriculum references not only British culture but also many other cultures from around the world. Thoughtfulness and patience with others win high praise.British education is forward-looking and in constant evolution. 5 New methods often come into practice while the outdated and hard disciplines have fade into history, leaving behind softer traditions and customs.A. The National Curriculum is reviewed frequently.B. British education is widely recognized and admired.C. British education can also be seen as a way of teaching.D. Scotland, the third part of Great Britain, has its own curriculumE. The curriculum sets out specific learning objectives for every year group.F. Students often reflect on how their behavior affects the world around them.G. They are recognized to be valuable for learning life skills and building character.(D)A grateful heart is a satisfied heart. A satisfied heart is a simple heart which leads to a simplified life. Gratitude opens the door to simplicity. But we live in a culture that produces dissatisfaction.1Intentionally choose it. Gratitude will never be a result of your next success or accomplishment. 2_ And you will never find it in life until you intentionally decide tochoose it.Find gratitude in difficulty. 3 But it can be more difficult during the trials of life:the death, disease, or failure. The truth is that no one is exempt(获豁免的)from the sufferings. However, good can be found even in the worst of times. Being grateful during those difficulties may get you through them.Count your blessings. A new day, a warm bed, a unique personality, or a special talent.4 Gratitude quickly sets in when we begin to spend a quiet moment each day remembering them. This practice alone has the potential to change your heart and life immeasurably.5 Almost half the world live on less than $2.50 a day. 1.1 billion people have inadequate access to clean water. Let those facts sink in for just a moment and slowly allow gratitude to become part of the solution to take their place.In daily life we must see it is not happiness that makes us grateful, but gratefulness that makes us happy.A. Open your eyes to those with less.B. Gratitude is available in your heart right now.C. Ignore what you don’t have.D. We can learn how to be grateful.E. You have wonderful things in your life already.F. It’s easy to be grateful when things are going well.G. How can we find gratitude in a world that seeks to destroy it?(E)Where you choose to stay can make or break your vacation experience.But even the most experienced travelers may not know the difference between the two main types of homes-away-from-home—hotels and motels. ___1___ The answer isn’t as simple as you’d think.These two types of lodging(住宿)have the same basic purpose—a place for travelers to sleep.___2___ For instance,they came to be for different reasons,and at very different times.The word“hotel”dates back to the 1600s and comes from a French word,hôtel.That word,justlike the English one.referred to a place that provides lodging,meals,entertainment,and other services to travelers. ___3___ This word dates back to the 1920s and combines the words“hotel”and“motor.”As America’s major highway system developed,so did motels,filling the need for roadside stops for motorists traveling cross-country.___4___ Hotels tend to be built for longer stays,while motels are intended more for one-or two-night stops along a journey.Because of this,hotels are much more likely to have offerings like lounges,gyms,and entertainment.___5___ Want the place you stay to be just as much a part of your travel experience as anything else? Choose a hotel,Just need a place to pop in and out of to shower and sleep? A motel might be the better choice.A. There are many secrets that hotels won’t tell you.B. But there are plenty of features that set them apart.C. Have you ever stayed in a motel on your vacation?D. Motels,on the other hand,are a much more recent lodging option.E. Besides their first letters,is there any real difference between them?F. So,in the end,it comes down to what you want from your trip and from your lodging.G. There are also other differences that can help you figure out which type of place you’re in.(F)Nowadays, people tend to take a selfie (自拍) wherever they are. However, not all of them can take a perfect selfie. ___1___So I am going to give you some tips on how to get a perfect one.Use Several Devices. Before you can even think about uploading a selfie on your social networking site, you need to decide which device to use in the first place. Although there are many devices you can use to take a selfie, the best one is a smart phone with a front and back camera. However, it doesn’t mean that your other devices can’t come in handy. ___2___In the end, all that matters is how well you practice and how to get the right shots.Catch Good Lighting and Background. To capture a classic selfie, you have to pay close attention to the lighting and background. If you’re taking a selfie indoors, you are supposed to face a window or door where natural light is shining right on your face. This really brightens up the picture.___3___Aim for Unconventional Shots. For a refreshing twist, try taking a selfie with your pet.___4___One great thing about selfie is that you don’t need to wait for the right time or place. You can instantly reach out for your camera, strike a pose, and get a rocking selfie.___5___Relax, enjoy and click — these are the three basic rules you need to follow. A selfie is not an activity where you need to follow some guidelines or set rules.A. Try to avoid the serious face.B. Pretend to be very happy all the time.C. Taking a selfie needs practice and skills.D. You remember to show your best smiles there.E. For an outdoor selfie, face the sun to make it work.F. You just have to understand how each of them works.G. It’s interesting to see what king of expression it will give.(G)From the time my kids were little I was determined to teach them the value of a dollar.1 If they didn’t do their chores,they didn’t get their allowance (零花钱).And if t hey didn’t have money,they couldn’t buy anything.It’s kind of like real life.There was only one problem — me.2And then,when they occasionally would want to buy something that they couldn’t quite afford,I would sometimes let them borrow from the next we ek’s allowance.But then I’d forget how much they’d borrowed and we’d end up arguing about just how much I owed them.3Obviously I’m not alone — both in wanting to teach my kids financial responsibility and in needing help.4Gregg Murset,a financial planner who has six kids of his own,created MyjobChart — a website that helps you keep track of the jobs your kids are doing and determine how much they’re owed.5My 22-year-old daughter recently explained how her emergency fund,built up by saving financial gifts and working during school,allowed her to live independently while continuing her education.So perhaps the thing to remember is that kids learn about handling money from their parents.Save,spend responsibly and try to explain why and they might just end up getting the message.A.In short,I was an unsuccessful banker.B.It is helpful in teaching my kids about money.C.I’d forget to check whether they’d completed their chores.D.So I set up the reward system and record their required chores.E.The kids can sign in and record when they’ve completed their work.F.So I gave them chores and an allowance when they were relatively young.G.Now some parents working on technologies have come up with ways to solve this problem.参考答案A.FAEBDB.GEBDAC.DCGFAD.GBFEAE.1:根据前一句,即使很多有经验的游客都不知道hotel和motel之间的区别,以及后一句不是你想象的那么简单,E选项,除了第一个字母之外,有没有其他的区别呢?承接上下文,开启文章,区别hotel和motel,故选E。

[高三英语]高考英语“七选五“题训练

Most of us lead a busy life. 71 We think, “If I reached my goal, then I would be happy”, or “If I could get a better job, then I would enjoy life.” But why not enjoy life right now?Firstly, take time to notice and appreciate the beauty in your own surroundings. 72 “There is a great big world of wonder and beauty around us!” And as Brodersen explains. “Look for the beauty of the sunrise and of a friend’s smile that brightens your day. Open your eyes to see the beauty you might not normally see. Doing so helps to cheer you up.”Secondly, taking time to experience some simple pleasures also can bring joy to your heart and ease your stress. Take me for example. 73 One universal simple pleasure is finding things that make you laugh. Make time to laugh every day.Thirdly, don’t take your family and friends for granted. Rich, rewarding relationships add greatly to the enjoyment of life. When you think of someone, why not call, e-mail or write them? 74 As Wayne Lawton explains, “Invest time in relationships. Remove the attitude, what’s in it for me? Happiness is found in putting other’s interests, desires and concerns ahead of our own whenever possible. Selfishness is a dead-end street.”75 A. I delight in simple things like my favorite tea drink, a bubble bath or family photos.B. In my spare time, I enjoy collecting stamps and reading novels.C. Driven by the “urgent”, we forget to enjoy life.D. So please treasure relationship.E. You don’t need to travel far to find beauty.F. Be aware of beauty in nature.G. A short e-mail or phone call can make a world of difference to someone. 练习一CEAGDRiding a London subway, a person from China will notice one major difference: In London, commuters (乘车上下班的人) do not look at each other. 71 That's not rudeness—people are just too busy to bother looking.Busy doing what, you ask? Well, they're certainly not using the time for a moment of quiet reflection. Nor are they reading a book. 72 Today the only acceptable form of book on the London Underground is an e-book.73 Since the launch of the iPhone in 2007, over 40,000-yes, that's 40,000-"apps" (programs downloaded for the iPhone) have been designed.Commuters love them because they are the perfect time-filler. One "app",called iShoot, is a game that features tanks. Another one, Tube Exits, tells passengers where to sit on the train to be closest to the exit of their destination. ISteam clouds the iPhone screen when you breathe into the microphone. 74For those without an iPhone, another Apple product, the iPod, may be the distraction of choice. It's not just teenagers who "plug in" to their music -iPods are a popular way to pass the time for all ages.And if games, e-books and music aren't enough to keep you occupied. Then perhaps you would prefer a film? The development of palm DVD technology means many commuters watch their favorite TV show or film on the way to work.75A.Modern Londoner are fancy victims.B.New technology has replaced quiet habits.C.In fact, eye contact is avoided at all times.D.Apple must earn a fortune from London commuters.E.You can then write the “steam” on your phone screen.F.Technology is changing the way London commuters spend their traveling time.G.With this distraction, it’s amazing that people still remember to get off the train.练习二CBDEFThe need for love is deeply rooted in the human psyche(灵魂). 71 Separateness, according to psychologists, means to be cut off, helpless and alone in the world. It is the source of all anxiety.72 It can be selfish and possessive, or unselfish and giving. Abraham Maslow distinguishes between two kinds of love: B-love or “being love” means love for another person: unselfish love not dependent upon your own needs. D-love or “deficiency-love” is a selfish possessive love which is based upon someone else’s ability to satisfy your needs.D-love is conditional. It depends upon whether personal needs continue to be met. But B-love is unconditional. 73 Furthermore, as it depends upon who you are, it is possible only when you allow yourself to be known to the other person.The psychologist Erich Fromm also distinguished between two types of love. 74 Symbiotic union is an immature love based upon the satisfaction of needs and is similar to Maslow’s concept of D-love.Mature love, on the other hand, is a relationship that allows individuals to retain(保持) their independence, their identity, and their integrity. In mature love people can overcome their sense of separateness yet continue to be themselves. The mature lover would say, “I love you because I need you,” but the mature one: “75 ”A.There are two types of love.B.I need you because I love you.C.Love is a way of overcoming the feeling.D.Every one of us needs love.E.It depends not upon what you do, but who you are.F.They are immature love, called by him symbiotic union(共同体), and mature love.G.These two types are quite different from each other.练习三71—75 CAEFB71 Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing or whistle when you are happy.Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy.However, they sing most of the time for a very different reason. 72Do you know what a “territory” is? A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male, claims as its own. 73 .No other families of the same species are welcome .Y our yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.If so, you have actually scared the stranger away without having to fight him .A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time , especially at nesting (筑巢)season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. 74Birds sing loudest in the spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs. Y ou can see that birds have a language all their own. 75A. Only he and his family are welcome there.B. Most of it has to do with attracting mates and setting up territories.C.

This screaming is what we call a bird's song, and it is usually enoughto keep an outsider away.练习四71-75.EDAGBWhen I was a little girl, my mom would say, “Half the fun of doing anything is s haring it with others.” 71 Friends and mates allow us to enjoy our successes and our joys, comfort us in our hard moments, and provide a mirror for us to learn more about ourselves. I’ve always looked at friends as the family we choose. They enrich our lives. As Robert Louis Steven once said, “72 ”To be a good friend or partner, it’s important to be a good listener. Hear what your friend or mate has to say first rather than jump to conclusions or get defensive. 73 When they hear their words repeated back to them, it can help them to realize what they said was not exactly what they meant to say.74 You know the old golden rule, “Care for others the way you would like them to care for you.” The support of a friend during a tough time could make the difference between success and failure. Encouragement and confidence are the gifts that can help change a person’s life.Take care, though, with whom you choose to have close relationship, for they can have a great effect on yourself – respect and life path. As someone once told me “75 They will either take you up or down.”A.I am afraid so.B.It is quite trueC.Friendship is the most important factor.D.Sometimes it is useful to be their mirror.E.A friend is a present which you give yourself.F.The attitudes of your friends are like the buttons on a lift. G.Patience, sympathy and understanding are also important qualities.练习五BEDGF71 Such as runny noses, sore throats, nothing quite like the common cold to make you feel miserable. But experts believe that there is no link between cold weather and catching colds. 72Internal Medicine expert, Dr Meenakshi Jain of Max Hospital says, “One reason could be that people are likely to stay indoors, so the virus can spread easily. 73 ”The common cold is a viral infection that can be caused by any of up to 250 strains of virus, the most common group of which are the rhinovirus that hit the nose.74 “They are transmitted through the nose respiratory passages, by touch, and by contact with airborne particles that are created by sneezing or coughing,” says Dr Jain.There is no cure for the common cold and antibiotics are of no help. However, there are some precautions which can help:75 In this case, you can protect your hands from getting germs.Don’t touch your eyes, nose and mouth, which can limit your chances of infection.Don’t share drinking glasses or utensils with anyone as this will prevent the spread of the virus.Make sure to eat enough fruits to boost your immune system.A. Also the virus thrives in humidity.B. Drink lots of fluids to avoid dehydration.C. They are responsible for anywhere between a third and half of all common colds.D. Get enough sleep and you’ll certainly feel better.E. So why are we particularly vulnerable(脆弱的) this season?F. Wash your hands regularly.G. It’s winter and you have probably noticed germs are everywhere.练习六GEACF。

He explains deep work as “the ability to focus without distraction on a cognitively (认知地) demanding task.” 7According to Newport, deep work is an invaluable skill in today’s economy. It allows you to learn difficult things quickly. Most people are distracted when they work, so if you learn to work without distraction, that givesyou an advantage. 8 Developing excellence in one’s craft can be deeply satisfying.It’s important to schedule deep work into your day. Otherwise, it’s easy to let your time fill up with shallow work. Newport recommends doing deep work as your first task of the day. 9 Shallow work does need to get done, but if you save it for later in the day, you can get your deep work done, too.Because deep work is by definition cognitively demanding, you won’t be able to do it all day. Beginners can usually only focus on deep work for approximately an hour, and even experts have trouble going more than four hours. 10 If you really focus, you’ll be surprised at how much you accomplish in a few hours.A.So set reasonable goals for yourself.B.Concentration is an increasingly valuable skill.C.That way you get it done before distractions build up.D.But the secret to success is the opposite of multitasking.E.Without smartphones, you fall into deep work more easily.F.It also enables you to produce to the best of your ability and acquire new skills quickly.G.It differs from shallow work, which consists of simple tasks performed while distracted.(2023上·广东·高三校联考阶段练习)“Beauty is only skin deep” it is said. This means that a person’s appearance is not as important as their character. Yet it is strange why people and especially women are willing to spend a fortune on making themselves more attractive physically. 11 The reason can only be one, and it is that beauty has its advantages.Attractive people are more popular generally. Beauty draws a positive response from the people around. This is obvious with children. For example, based on observation, there is a tendency for adults to treat good-looking children better. This favorable treatment continues into adulthood, as attractive people are more likely to be chosen for leadership positions and given more opportunities. 12Another important benefit that good-looking people enjoy is that they find a husband or wife more easily.13 This initial attraction may then develop into romantic feelings and a serious relationship if the couple find that they are compatible (和睦相处的) with each other.On the other hand, beauty has a number of disadvantages as well. Firstly, a good-looking person tends to attract unwanted attention from all kinds of people. The admirer may have bad intentions and cause problems for the target. 14 It is thought that beauty and brains do not go together. Thus, attractive people may not gain respect even when they deserve it because of this prejudice against them.While every individual should take care of their outward appearance and look their best, they should not neglect (忽视) their inner beauty or character. 15 Also, they should not forget physical beauty is indeed,only skin deep and will not last.A.Life is not always easy for beautiful people.B.The skincare industry is a multi-billion dollar business.C.It turns out being conventionally beautiful has its benefits.D.It is a fact that people are first attracted to outward appearance.E.They should not place such importance on beauty that they become proud.F.Being well-treated gives attractive people more confidence and they perform better.G.Another problem faced by good-looking people is that they may not be taken seriously.(2023上·广东佛山·高三统考开学考试)How to Live a Fulfilling Life How awesome would it be to get out of bed each morning feeling purposeful and happy about your day? What about going to sleep each night with a grin(露齿的笑)of satisfaction on your lips? 16 Here are some tips that may help you.● 17To lead a more fulfilling life, you first need to know what part of your current life is troubling or unsatisfactory. Reflect on different aspects of your life to figure out which are upsetting you the most. Try closing your eyes and questioning “What part of my life dissatisfies me the most?” Whatever comes to mind first is probably where you’ll want to start.● Building good habits.One of the best ways to build good habits that support a fulfilling life is by doing something each day that challenges you. Identify one thing you can take action on that pushes you beyond your comfort zone and do it. This might be sharing ideas with your boss when you typically stay quiet. 18 For example, if you’ve been trying to lose weight, but you spend too much time on the couch, reduce your time on TV or do an exercise while you watch.● Having good health and well-being.19 You’ll have trouble feeling fulfilled if your energy only goes out. Just as you pour love and support into others, you must return that love and support to yourself. Take time to improve your own self with passions or self-care. Fulfillment also translates to perfect mental and physical health, so make time to exercise regularly. Schedule it into your day. 20A.Addressing your dissatisfaction.B.Learning to avoid dissatisfaction.C.It’s important to set aside “me” time.D.End each day by reflecting on your daily challenge.E.Replacing your bad habits with good ones is also suggested.F.That way, it will be just like any other task on your to-do list.G.This may seem difficult, but leading a more fulfilling life is entirely possible.(2023上·广东·高三校联考开学考试)Emotions help you communicate and connect with others, and they drive your behaviors or decisions in everyday life as well. However, not all emotions are positive or easy to deal with. 21 Here are four “S-word” life skills you can turn to.The first “S” goes for self-awareness. 22 Physical sensations can influence your emotional state. Be aware of these feelings associated with different emotions. For example, feeling tension in the chest having butterflies in the stomach or simply getting nervous, can help you better understand how emotions influence your bodies and minds.The second “S” is self-acceptance. This is often linked to greater well-being, while the experiential avoidance of emotions is linked to more negative emotions and symptoms of depression. 23 But it does mean you acknowledge them without judgment or criticism. Of course, it requires your tolerance and patience.The third skill comes from self-compassion(自我同情). It is crucial to use this when things just don’t go well.24 When things go wrong, treating yourself with kindness and calming your nerves with gentleness can bring the lower level of anxiety and depression.25 It is helpful to protect your emotional well-being and maintain healthy relationships. As a human being, you should have dignity, principles and the bottom line. You can build your fence by saying “no” when necessary, or saying your needs and feelings out beforehand to prevent situations or people that you would not like to see again.A.The last one is about setting boundaries.B.The fourth one refers to personal forgiveness.C.Remember to practise some self-care activities.D.Especially, mixed emotions can be challenging to manage.E.Accepting emotions never means you have to like bad ones.F.It is the key to fully understanding your own emotions and others’.G.Self-acceptance means tolerating all emotions, healthy or unhealthy.(2023上·广东广州·高三统考开学考试)Are your teenagers getting enough sleep? It’s the key to exam success. If they sleep well, they will be more likely to perform better. Here are some practical ways you can helpthem.26 Parents should avoid falling asleep on the sofa in the evenings or using tech devices when it’s late. Commit to your own bedtime routine so that your teenager can be your follower.Work out exactly how much sleep they need. Teenagers should aim for between eight and ten hours’ sleep a night, according to the World Health Organisation. 27 Maybe it’s eight, or maybe it’s nine. But those who get less than seven hours most nights are not getting enough.Establish a wind-down (放松) routine. Once they know how much sleep they’re aiming for, help them to achieve this by negotiating a 30 to 60-minute wind-down routine before they go to bed, at the same time every night. 28Let them have a weekend lie-in. Enable your children to get up as late as they can, sparing them the morning chores. 29 Troubling teenagers out of bed at weekends works against their sleep pattern.30 They will reward you more.A.Lead by example.B.Let your teenagers have more sleep.C.Half an hour of exercise can excite their body.D.But the exact amount of sleep your teenager needs is unique.E.Getting up late occasionally will improve their work efficiency.F.On study-leave days an extra hour in bed will help them concentrate better.G.A bath will bring the body temperature down a degree which is ideal for sleep.(2023上·广东·高三校联考阶段练习)The Malaysian night market is based on a concept of open-air shopping where street vendors (小贩) take over a designated street to set up stalls.

Seen from the foot of the mountain, the sky was gray and cloudy. 36 It sometimes appeared in white mist, and sometimes was completely covered by clouds.On the mountainside, our clothing grew wet. 37 It slowed the horses down to a heavy pace.

With immersion, you try to surroundyourself with the language as much as you can in your day-to-day activities.Accept that English grammar has a lot of exceptionsSometimes, you can find patterns in English grammar, but other times English doesn’t make sense at all. It’s easy to get stuck on learning how to speak English properly if you try to find a reason for everything. 47 So the best thing to do is just memorize the strange exceptions and move on.Learn intonation, body language and gesturesIntonation is the “rise and fall” or tone changes in how a person speaks. Body language is how a person uses their own body to support (or go against) what they mean. Gestures are hand and body movements that work together with what someone is saying. 48 One way to learn is to just watch how native English speakers communicate with each other.Share your opinions onlineTo really learn English speaking, you need to learn how to express yourself in English. Even if you have ideas for conversations, it can be hard to know how to put them into your own words. You can practice this by participating in conversations online. 49Get direct feedbackTo improve your speaking, you can ask directly for feedback. Since you usually can’t do this with casual conversations, it might be worth setting up a language exchange, where you can ask the person to tell you directly if any of your sentences sounds awkward or unnatural. 50 Hello Talk also allows you to chat in English, and then your conversation partner will literally mark out your mistakes.A.Sometimes, English is just strange!B.There are many options for practicing your writing skills.C.Listen carefully when someone asks you a question in English.D.It’s not easy to learn these three things because they seem very natural.E.Posting on social media and leaving comments on articles are good approaches.F.Studying English for an hour once a week isn’t usually enough to make any real progress.G.There are even apps for this, like Go Correct, where you can connect with English teachers.参考答案:1.C 2.D 3.G 4.B 5.F【导语】这是一篇说明文。

2022届高三英语二轮复习七选五专题练习五篇(含答案)

Passage 27It's natural to greet friends with a smile and a wave. 1________ But what happens if your face and body send mixed messages? Would someone be more likely to believe the look on your face or the way you hold your body?Scientists have recently tackled these questions. They found that when a person is looking at your face, she might not believe what she sees of your body language doesn't match the feeling that your face shows. 2________ Previously, they had found that the tone of a person's voice can be more important than the words that are spoken. For example, most people tend not to believe a person who says in a flat voice, “I'm so excited. ”When it came to emotions conveyed by facial expressions and body language, most scientists suspected that the face was more important. To test if this was true, psychologists from the Netherlands and Boston showed people a number of pictures of isolated faces and isolated bodies(with faces blurred out)that showed anger or fear. 3 __________An angry face had low eye-brows and tight lips. A scared face had high eyebrow and a slightly open mouth. 4________A scared body had arms forward and shoulders square, as if ready to defend.These results told the researchers that mixed signals can confuse people. Even when people pay attention to the face, body language subtly influences which emotion they read.5_________And if you want to be understood, it helps to avoid sending mixed messages.A. Studying such mixed messages is nothing new for scientists.B. So, your body language is important for telling people how you feel.C. Scientists feel new to study the mixed message that confuses people.D. An angry body had arms back and shoulders at an angle, as if ready to fight.E. Body language can sometimes be misunderstood in different culture back grounds.F. When you do this, your face and body work together to show your friends that you're happy to see them.G. They also showed pictures in which angry or scared faces were paired with angry or scared bodies.Passage 28Americans use many expressions with the word“dog”. People in the United States love their dogs and treat them well. 1________ However, dogs without owners to care for them lead a different kind of life. The expression, to lead a dog's life, describes a person who has an unhappy existence.Some people say we live in a dog-eat-dog world. 2 ________They say that to be successful, a person has to work like a dog. This means they have to work very, very hard. Such hard work can make people dog-tired. And, the situation would be even worse if they became sick as a dog.3_______This means that every person enjoys a successful period during his or her life. To be successful, people often have to learn new skills. Yet, some people saythat you can never teach an old dog new tricks. They believe that older people do not like to learn new things and will not change the way they do things.4________People who are unkind or uncaring can be described as meaner than a junkyard dog. Junkyard dogs live in places where people throw away things they do not want. Mean dogs are often used to guard this property.They bark or attack people who try to enter the property. However, some-times a person who appears to be mean and threatening is really not so bad.We say his bark is worse than his bite.Dog expressions are also used to describe the weather. The dog days of summer are the hottest days of the year. A rainstorm may cool the weather. But we do not want it to rain too hard. 5_________A. Still, people say every dog has its day.B. We do not want it to rain cats and dogs.C. Some people are compared to dogs in bad ways.D. Dogs are their best friends and they are loyal to people.E. There are many other expressions waiting for you to explore.F. That means many people are competing for the same things, like good jobs.G. They take their dogs for walks, let them play outside and give them, good food and medical care.Passage29Most drinks stating that they are fruit-flavored(水果口味)contain no fruit at all, while most of the rest contain only a small quantity of fruit, according to study carried by the British Food Commission.“Shoppers need to check the labels(标签)before buying drinks, "said Food Commission spokesperson Ian Tokelove. "Food production is highly competitive. 1________ It will increase profits, and consumers won't always realize they are being tricked. "Researchers analyzed the contents of 28 strawberry-flavored products sold in stores. 2_________of the 28 products, eleven of them did contain strawberries, five of them contained less than one percent real fruit and the rest contain no fruit at all. In addition, each juice box contained nearly eight teaspoons of sugar. 3_________Let's take jam as an example. Some strawberry-flavored jam was labeled as containing no artificial colors, flavors, or sweeteners, but it contained absolutely no strawberries at all.4__________Consumers have the rights to know clearly about what they have bought. Under current UK law, food packages do not have to distinguish between natural and artificial flavoring. "Describing a product as strawberry flavor and covering the surface of the packet with pictures of strawberries is misleading.5__________Unfortunately, it is also legal and widespread, "Tokelove said. "It's time to take measures to protect the consumers' rights. ”A. The products which contain real fruit are popular with people.B. Even products advertised as more natural often contained no fruit.C. They found that about 60 percent of them didn't contain any fruit at all.D. If companies can cut their costs by using flavoring, they are likely to do so.E. It is important and necessary to demand a small amount of flavoring in the products.F. Actually the product contains just a tiny percentage of strawberry or even no fruit at all.G. The Food Commission suggested all flavors used in a product should, be listed on the packaging.Passage30Every student has tests when they are at school. But have you ever been so worried about the tests that you can't fall asleep at night? Have you ever felt sick or had a headache during a test? 1_________This worry in your mind can make your body feel bad. You may feel angry, frustrated, scared, or afraid, which can give you a stomachache or a headache.2__________Good or normal stress might happen when you are called to answer a question in class or when you have to give a speech. This kind of stress can help you to get things better done. 3__________But bad stress can happen if the stressful feelings keep going over a long time. You may not feel well if your parents are fighting, if a family member is ill, if you are having problems at school, or if you are going through anything else that makes you upset every day. 4___________5__________That means making a good decision about how to spend your time. If you are only dealing with school stuff and have no time to play, you can get stressed. Make sure you keep your SELF in mind:Sleep, Exercise, Leisure and Food. If you take care of yourself and get enough sleep and food, and if you exercise and leave time for fun stuff, you will probably be less stressed out!A.

课时训练5 七选五Passage 11Home can be a great place for children to study. It’s important to provide a workspace of their own where they can read books or just write a letter to their friends.●Location (位置)2 Kitchen and dining room are not so well suited for regular study, since books and pens get in the way of the day-to-day uses of those areas. Set up a place where a child can settle in and leave papers and pens at hand without having to clear everything away each night. For a child that likes being alone, set aside a corner of his bedroom, but keep it separate from things like games, music and other hobbies not related to studying.●Keeping Things in OrderParents should encourage their child to spread out, but to leave it neat and orderly wh en he isn’t using his workspace. Ownership is very important for self-respect. 3 The workplace should be personal, but not another part of the playroom.● 4Encourage the whole family to help build a supportive environment that children need for success in school. Give them a good example of how to deal with problems, how to manage time and get things done in the right way. 5 Study will be more enjoyable and effective when supported by the whole family.A.Attitude Is EverythingB.Bring Organization into Your HomeC.Here are several ways to choose a location.D.Building a Good Home Learning Environment.E.Hold a can-do attitude and your child will follow your example.F.Setting up a space in a common area of your home can be a good idea for children.G.

Check out the facility and the staff. Is the place friendly? Can you change clothes comfortably? Are facilities easily accessed?Determine your participation style.

Sports help to keep people healthy and happy, and to live longer.1 They buy tickets or turn on their TVs to watch the games. Often they get very excited when their player or team wins.2 Football, for example, has spread around the world. Swimming is popular in all countries near the sea or in those with many rivers. What fun it is to jump into a pool or lake, whether in China, Egypt or Italy!3 Think how many lovers to skate or ski in Japan, Norway or Canada.Some sports or game go back thousands of years, like running or jumping. Chinese wushu, for example, has a very long history. But basketball and volleyball are rather new. Neither one is a hundred years old yet. 4 Water-skiing is one of the newest in the family of sports.People from different countries may not be able to understand each other, but after a game together they often become good friends. 5 One learns to fight hard but fight fair, to win without pride and to lose with grace.A.And think of people in cold countries.B.Sports help to train a person’s character.C.Not a few people participate in different sports competitions themselves.D.Many people like to watch others play games.E.People aren’t inventing new sports or games.F.Some sports are so interesting that people everywhere take part in them.G.People are inventing new sports or games all the time.Passage 4Competitors who wear red win more than those that are dressed in any other color, according to study in Germany.1 Experts believe that red could make individuals and teams feel more confident as well as being perceived by others as more aggressive.2 On the other hand, the results could suggest that the success of those teams has given those that wear the red color more confident.The study, by German sports psychologists at the University of Munster, was reported in New Scientist magazine. They showed video recording of taekwondo matches to 42 experienced referees. One fighter wore blue and the other wore red. They then showed them the same recordings but digitally manipulated the clothing to exchange the colors. 3 “If one competitor is strong and the other is weak, it won’t change the outcome of the fight,” said Norbert Hagemann, who led the study. “ 4 ”In 2004 scientists at Durham University also looked at how color influenced sporting competitiveness. They analyzed Olympic contest sports such as boxing, taekwondo, and freestyle wrestling and found that nearly 55% of which were won by the competitor in red.“ 5 ”said Robert Burton, one of the researchers.A.It is the color of fire and is often associated with energy, danger, strength, power, anddetermination.B.The fighters wearing red were given an average of 13 percent more points than when they woreblue.C.The study shows that football shirts from worldwide teams such as Arsenal, Liverpool, sellsuccessfully.D.It is reasonable that wearing red makes individuals feel more confident, although this hasn’t yetbeen tested.E.Researchers found that those who wear red tops, jackets or clothing score 10 percent more inany competition than if they were in another color.F.The findings could explain why Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal have been sosuccessful.G.But the closer the levels, the easier it is for the color to tip the scale.Passage 5Most people know that chocolate is made from cocoa and that the origins of chocolate can be traced back to Central and South America. 1 but how did chocolate go from being the food of the gods to being the food of love?2 They established the first cocoa plantation and used the cocoa beans as the main ingredient in a dark, bitter drink that we would call “chocolate”. The Mayas believed that chocolate had mystical properties.3 In fact, cocoa beans were used as a form of currency that was worth its weight in gold.Spanish conquistador Hernando Cortez was the first European explorer to realize coco’s commercial possibilities. 4 in 1529, Cortez returned Spain and introduced chocolate——as a drink mixed with sugar, vanilla, and cinnamon——to European society.It caught on, especially with the nobility. As its popularity spread, people found new ways to make and use chocolate. 5 Whether it is in delectable desserts or crunchy candy, people all over the world are still in love with chocolate.A.But cocoa also had commercial value.B.But not all the people all over the world love cocoa.C.For centuries, the native there regarded cocoa as a gift from the gods.D.When he arrived in the New World in 1519, he soon established his own cocoa plantation.E.Around A. D. 600, the Mayas were the main aboriginal group in Central America.F.These days, chocolate is enjoyed as both a tasty treat and a romantic indulgence.G.Doctors said cocoa plays an active part in medicine.Passage 6For the rest of March, a disease will sweep across the US. It will keep kids home from school.1 Employees will suddenly lose their ability to concentrate.The disease, known as “March Madness”, refers to the yearly 65-team US men’s college basketball tournament(锦标赛). 2 Teams compete against each other in a single-elimination(单局淘汰) tournament that eventually crowns a national champion.Nearly 20 million Americans will find themselves prisoners of basketball festival madness. The fun comes partly from guessing the winners for every game. Friends compete against friends. 3 Colleagues against bosses.Big-name schools are usually favored to advance into the tournament. But each year there are dark horses from little-known universities.This adds to the madness. Watching a team from a school with 3,000 students beat a team from a school with 30,000, for many Americans, is an exciting experience. Two years ago, the little-known George Mason University was one of the final teams. 4College basketball players are not paid, so the game is more about making a name for their university and themselves. 75 About $4 billion will be spent gambling on the event. According to Media Life magazine, the event will bring in $500 million in advertising income this year, topping the post-season income of every US professional league, including that of the NBA.A.Husbands against wives.B.The players will go all out for the games.C.But that doesn’t mean money isn’t involved.D.College students will ignore piles of homework.E.People are willing to spend more money on watching it.F.It begins on March 15 and lasts through the beginning of April.G.Many people had never even heard of the university before the tournament.Passage 7Culture means any human behavior that is learned in human society. All of the meaningful parts of a culture are passed on to different generations through tradition or social learning. 1 Culture exists in agricultural as well as industrialized societies.Culture is necessary for the survival and existence of human beings as human beings. Practically everything humans know, think, value, feel, and do is learned through taking part in a sociocultural system. 2 Here is one of the cases of children growing up apart from human society. In the provinc e of Midnapore in India, the director of a children’s home was told by local villagers that there were “ghost” in the forest. Upon looking into the case, the director found that two children, one about eight years old and the other about six years old, appeared to have been living a pack of wolves in the forest. 3 In his diary, the director describes his first view of Kamala (asthe older child was named) and Amala ( the name given to the younger child):Kamala was a terrible-looking being, the head, a big ball of something covering the shoulders.4 Their eyes were bright and sharp, unlike human eyes. They were very fond of raw meat and raw milk. Gradually, as they got stronger, they began going on all fours, and afterwards began to run on all fours, just like squirrels.Children learn human language in the same way they learn other kinds of human behavior——by taking part in a cultural community. 5A.From this viewpoint, all human groups have a culture.B.Close at its heels there came another terrible creature exactly like the first, but smaller in size.C.Human beings can only develop human abilities by the local people.D.This statement is well supported by some well-written cases.E.These children were the ghosts described by the local people.F.Culture refers only to the high art and classical music of a particular society.G.They learn a certain human languages as well as certain kinds of human behavior through theirmembership in a certain cultural community.Passage 8We are all called upon to make a speech at some point in life, but most of us don’t do a very good job. 1So, you have to give a speech and you are terrified. You get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you stumble over words, you talk too long, and you bore your audience. Later you think, “Thank Goodness, it’s over. I’m just not good at public speaking. I hope I never have to do that again.”Cheer up! 2 Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making. Ask yourself the purpose of your speech. What is the occasion? Why are you speaking? Then, gather as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of your time doing your research. Then spend plenty of your time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible, and use pictures, charts, and graphs if they help you make your points more clearly. 3 Don’t talk over their heads, and don’t talk down to them. Treat your audience with respect. They will appreciate your thoughtfulness.Just remember: Be prepared. Know your subject, your audience, and the occasion. Be brief. 4 And be yourself. Let your personality come through so that you make person-to-person contact with your audience.If you follow these simple steps, you will see that you don’t have to be afraid of public speaking. In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more speeches! You’re not convinced yet? 5A.It doesn’t to be that bad.B.Take several deep breaths before your speech.C.This article gives some advice on how to give good speech.D.Say what you have to say and then stop.E.Don’t say what you aren’t familiar with.F.Never forget your audience.G.Give it a try and see what happens.Passage 91 This date was the old mid-winter festival in pre-Christmas times, around the time of the longest night and the shortest day. Christmas in the 21st century has many traditions: Christmas trees, cards and presents. Shops can make about 60 percent f their year’s income in the three months before Christmas, so most shops get ready for it in October.2 The first time this happened was in 1867 when Macy’s famous shop in New York, stayed open until midnight on Christmas eve.By mid-December, almost every shop and street has a Christmas tree. 3 In the northern countries, winter is cold and dark and most trees are decorated with lights and colored glass balls give people hope that spring will come.Father Christmas is known across the world with his white hair, red coat and big bag of toys. Young children are told that he lives in the north of Finland and makes toys for them. 4 On Christmas Day a traditional meal is eaten, usually a turkey and a rich, spicy cake. Some people hate Christmas. 5 They love seeing family and friends; they also love the traditions. Love it or hate it, Christmas is a time to look back over the old year and forward to the new one.A.This tradition was started by the Germans as early as 700 AD.B.Believe it or not.C.Since about 400 AD, Christmas Day has been celebrated.D.Others feel it is a magical and exciting time.E.The shopping centers are beautifully decorated and stay open late at night.F.It was really beautiful indeed.G.By tradition, he brings the toys to children at night, on the night before Christmas.Passage 10In Asia, there are many places for people to go to teach English. Most of the teachers are young and sociable, and there are a lot of parties there. Korea is usually the place most people go to, because they have the most benefits and highest salaries by working only twenty hours a week. 1 Only if you stay there for a long time will you save some money.China is a new rising star and lots of people are going there. 2 You can save a sizable amount and complete all your loans back home. Besides, Chinese people are enterprising and you can learn a lot from them. In China, Taiwan is a good place to go, especially for females who want to earn much, but there are not many adult classes offered.The Middle East offers very high salaries for teachers, all of which is tax free. 3 Most of the people who tend to teach there are older and more conservative, so they don’t expect a party scene.Italy and Spain are two beautiful countries where you can try your fortune. 4 Tourism is another industry in these countries, where English knowledge is useful. Moreover, by teaching in Europe you have the chance to travel every weekend to a new country and visit a new culture besides a good salary. 5A.Europe has a lot to offer.B.It is a great way for people to see a new place.C.Teaching English overseas is a really rewarding experience.D.Like Japan, the pay is quite good, but the cost of living is much cheaper.E.Japan is also a good choice, but the cost of living eats up a lot of your money.F.However, you must be a certified teacher with years of experience if you want to teach there.G.Fashion industry in Milan would love to hire well-known English-speaking people to work withinternational models and designers.。

When I skied to research sites in Utah to collect snow for mye x p e r i m e n t,t h e m o u n t a i n o u s l a n d s c a p e s w e r e c o v e r e d i n d u s t.37 It’s clear that 2009 was one of the biggest years for dust deposition (沉积) onto snow.38 I usually have to cover several kilometers, carrying a 27-kilogramme pack with a shovel (铲子) to diga snow hole, tools to cut snow and measure its density, and containers to collect snow for analyses. One year, I hit a dusty area of snow, broke my ski and sliced my leg open.In areas with heavy dust deposition, such as the southern Rocky Mountains, dust speeds up melting by one or two months. Warming air temperatures affect snow gathering, but dust builds up over time and darkens the surface.39I’m now exploring different ice and snow landscapes for further research. For example, how black-carbon buildup following forest fires affects melting. 40 As we move into a future that is likely to be even dustier, we need them to predict snowmelt for many reasons, including working out how to use water in the western United States efficiently.A. The dust caused a lot of trouble.B. I went for miles in the wilderness.C. Doing my research is no easy task.D. One of the goals is to develop snowmelt models.E.

阅读理解七选五专练:1.I was ten when I first sat with my grandmother behind the cashier(收银台)in her general store. 71 I quickly learned the importance of treating customers politely and saying “thank you.”At first I was paid in candy. 72 I worked every day after school, and during the summer and on weekends and holidays from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. My father helped me set up a bank account. 73 By the time I was 12, My grandmother thought I had done such a good job that the promoted me to selling cosmetics(化妆品). I developed the ability to look customers directly in the eye. Even though I was just a kid, women would ask me such things as “ What color do you think I should wear?” I took a real interest in their questions and was able to translate what they wanted into makeup(化妆)ideas.74The job taught me a valuable lesson: to be a successful salesperson, you didn’t need to be a Rocket scientist—you needed to be a great listener. _____expect they are NO longer women purchasing cosmetics from me; instead, they are kids who tell me which toys they would like to see designed and developed.ter I received 50 cents an hour.B.Before long, she let me sir there by myself.C.I ended my selling a record amount of cosmetics.D.Today I still carry that lesson with me: I listen to customers.E.My grandma’s trust taught me how to handle responsibility.F.Soon I found myself looking more beautiful than ever before.G.Watching my money grow was more rewarding than anything I could have bought.(宁夏2010年高考)2.Money MattersParents should help their children understand money. 71 so you may start tallking about money when your child shows an interest in buying things,candy or toys,for example.1.The basic function of moneyBeing explaining the basic function of money by showing how people trade money for goods or services.it’s important to show your child how money is traded for the thing he wants to have.If he wants to have a toy, give him the money and let him hand the money to the cashier .72 when your child grows a bit older and understands the basic function of money, you can start explaining more complex ways of using money.2.Money lessonsApproach money lessons with openness and honesty. 73 If you must say no to a child’s request to spend money,explain,”You have enough toy trucks for now.”Or,if the request is for many different things, say.“You have to make a choice between this toy and that toy.”3. 74Begin at the grocery store.

But in fact, a lot of guys spend plenty of time in front of the mirror. They care just as much as girls do about their body image.Body image is a person’s opinions and feelings about his or her own body and physical appearance. 71 You appreciate your body for its capabilities and accept its imperfections.72 Here are some idea s:Recognize your strengths. Different body types are good for different things. What does your body do well? Maybe your speed, strength, or coordination makes you better than others at a certain sport. That may be basketball, table tennis, mountain biking, dancing, or even running. Or perhaps you have non-sports skills, like drawing, painting, singing, playing a musical instrument, writing, or acting. 73 Exercise regularly.

A good time to talk is when you’re all relaxed. Timing is everything. If the conversati on begins to turn into an argument, you’d better calmly and coolly ask to stop the conversation—for now. 72 Listen to what your parents are saying, and repeat it back to them. This shows them that you’re listening. 73Respect is the building block of good communication. People who respect each other and care about each others’ feelings call disagree without things getting ugly.74 How do you build trust? Trust comes by actually doing what you say you’re going to do. Some teens find that doing fun activities with their parents can improve their relationships. Sometimes we forget that parents are more than rule-makers—they’re interesting people who like to watch movies.

It’s like if you planted a garden and came back six months later----you wouldn’t even be able to find it. __73__Beat stress.My dog, Maggie, is the best anti – stress tool I have. A few minutes petting, scratching or playing with her, and_____74__ . Exercise also helps. Just about every day, I’m on the tennis court. It’s a great workout, and if I don’t have that, I don’t cope as well, sleep as well or think as well.Refocus your anger.Expressing your anger is just not that good an idea. You say things you don’t mean. _____75__When you do that, you’re a problem solver.Don’t medicate with food.It never, ever works.

He believes education is the best path to a young man.The Premier’s response to the incident says a lot about our country and culture. 74 The student’s words and actions showed his lack of knowledge about China, as the Chinese Ambassador to the UK, Fu Ying , pointed out .By asking the university to forgive Jahnke, the premier showed his tolerance toward people ,who did silly things without thought.This incident has upset many Chinese people. However, some cool –minded people think that we Chinese should not be anxious about those who misunderstand China. 75.

I suggested she experiment by not making her bed for two weeks. She was shocked, probably thinking I’d been raised by wolves in a forest. 72.Two weeks later she went into my office beaming. She had left her bed unmade for the first time in 42 years-and nothing bad had happened. “And you know what?” she said. “I don’t dry my dishes anymore, either.”73 .One was discovering that she had choices in her life that she had never seen before. The other was giving herself permission to be less that perfect. This story shows an important principle (原理) about managing time: No one can do it all.

They take better care of their houses and cars than they do of themselves. 74 .So what is the solution? There’s an easy way. Decide what you want in your life, and put that first. On a daily basis, that should include regular meals, enough sleep and time with your family. Exercise, leisure, friendships and hobbies should also be regular aspects of life. 75 .The choice is yours: whatever makes you feel good about yourself and your life. Take a nap. Take a walk. Take time to play the piano. Stop bringing your briefcase home from the office. Stop keeping your house as clean as your mother kept hers.

专题模拟训练(阅读七选五)阅读七选五(一)一、(北京市第四中学2019-2020学年高三上学期期中考试)Are You a Prisoner of Perfection?Do you struggle for a goal that is beyond your reach? 1 Are you setting yourself up for failure and shame when you can’t achieve the unachievable? Understanding wha t drives perfectionism is the first step toward releasing this self-created anchor that keeps us stuck.Shame and fear are often the hidden drivers of perfectionism.We believe that if we can fashion a perfectly polished personality,flash our intelligence,and perfect our humour,then no one can hurt us with criticism and we’ll win respect and approval.2 Politicians who display a desperate need to be right and refuse to acknowledge mistakes or uncertainty are often driven by a secret shame.They fear that showing vulnerability(弱点) will expose them to the accusation that they’re weak.They stick to a desire to be right,perfect,and polished,even when it’s obvious that the emperor has no clothes.Perfectionism keeps us leaning toward the future.We’re constantly evaluating ourselves in order to do better. 3 However,if we can’t relax and enjoy lighter moments,then we become prisoners of our perfectionism.We get painfully self-conscious and take ourselves too seriously.Sadly,we deprive(剥夺) ourselves of the simple pleasure of enjoying the moment and being ourselves.4 We realize that failing at any enterprise doesn’t mean that we are a failure.Without failures,we’ll never learn from our mistakes;we’ll never move forward in our lives.Those who succeed have made countless mistakes.The important thing is to learn from our error,forgive ourselves and move on.Being human,perfection is impossible. 5 Releasing ourselves from the desire to protect our image,we’re freed to sail gracefully through our successes and f ailures—and enjoy our precious life.A.Do you hold an idealized vision that is impossible to realize?B.A cure to perfectionism is to make room for our human shortcomings.C.Do you fear that others will be horrified by what you judge about yourself?D.The addiction to staying perfect protects us from any sign of being imperfect.E.There’s nothing wrong with wanting to do our best and self-correcting along the way.F.People who are addicted to perfection are often isolated,even if they seem outgoing and popular.G.By accepting ourselves as we are and doing our best,we begin to rid the shame that drives perfectionism.【答案】 1.A 2.D 3.E 4.B 5.G【解析】这是一篇说明文。

高三英语 七选五专练复习-人教版高三全册英语试题

七选五专练(一)Easy Ways to Keep Your Brain SharpEveryone is forgetful, but as we age, we start to feel like our brains are slowing down a bit—and that can be a very annoying thing.__1__Read on for some techniques worth trying.1.__2__People who regularly made plans and looked forward to upcoming events had a 50 percent reduced chance of Alzheimer's disease (早老性痴呆症), according to a recent study.__3__Something as simple as setting a goal to have a weekly coffee date with a friend will do.There's evidence that people who have a purpose in life or who are working on long or short-term goals appear to do better.In other words, keep your brain looking forward.2.Go for a walk.Mildly raised glucose (葡萄糖) levels can harm the area of the brain that helps you form memories and physical activity can help get blood glucose down to normal levels. In fact,exercise produces chemicals that are good for your brain.__4__3.Learn something new.Take a Spanish class online, join a drawing club, or learn to play cards. A study found that mental stimulation (刺激) limits the weakening effects of aging on memory and the mind. But the best thing for your brain is when you learn something new and are physically active at the same time.__5__Or go dancing with your friends.A.Focus on the future. B.This can be especially harmful to the aged.C.It should be something like learning gardening.D.So take a few minutes each day to do some reading.E.But don't worry if your schedule isn't filled with life­changing events.F.Luckily, research shows there is a lot you can do to avoid those moments.G.In other words, when you take care of your body, you take care of your brain.(二)Public Speaking and Critical ThinkingWhat is critical thinking? To a certain degree, it's a matter of logic(逻辑), of being able to spot weaknesses in other people's arguments and to avoid them in your own. It also includes related skills such as distinguishing fact from opinion and assessing the soundness of evidence.In the broad sense, critical thinking is focused, organized thinking—the ability to see clearly the relationships among ideas. __1__ The greatest thinkers, scientists, and inventors have often taken information that was readily available and put it together differently to produce new ideas. That, too, is critical thinking.__2__ As the class goes on, for example, you will probably spend a good deal of time organizing your speeches. While this may seem like a purely mechanical (机械的) exercise, it is closely connected with critical thinking. If the structure of your speech is loose and confused, chances are that your thinking is also disordered and confused. If, on the other hand, the structure is clear, there is a good chance your thinking is too. Organizing a speech is not just a matter of arranging the ideas you already have. __3__ .What is true of organization is true of many aspects of public speaking. __4__ As you work on expressing your ideas in clear, accurate language, you will improve your ability to think clearly and accurately. __5__ As you learn to listen critically to speeches in class, you will be better able to assess the ideas of speakers in a variety of situations.If you take full advantage of your speech class, you will be able to develop your skills as a critical thinker in many circumstances. This is one reason public speaking has been regarded as a vital part of education since the days of ancient Greece.A. Rather, it is an important part of shaping the ideas themselves.B. This may seem like a lot of time, but the rewards are well worth it.C. It may also help you to know that there is no such thing as a perfect speech.D. It has often been said that there are few new ideas in the world, only reorganized ideas.E. If you are wondering what this has to do with your public speaking class, the answer is quite a lot.F. The skills you learn in your speech class can help you become a more effective thinker in a number of ways.G. As you study the role of evidence and reasoning in speechmaking ,you will see how they can be used in other forms of communication as well.(三)The First AmericansThere was a time long ago when a land bridge connected Asia and North America. The first settlers in North America crossed this land bridge from what is now Siberia to Alaska. The people who made this initial crossing were probably following the animals they used for food.Eventually, the oceans rose and the land bridge between the continents disappeared. The settlers, who I shall call the “First Americans〞,could not return to their homeland. __1__For the next few thousand years, the First Americans migrated south and east throughout North and South America. They made the journey all the way from Alaska to the southern tip of South America, a distance of more than 10, 000 miles. __2__In the far north, above the Arctic Circle, the First Americans became hunters of the ocean. __3__ In the brief summer,they gathered berries and other plants. In the winter, they stayed in lodges much of the time preparing for the next summer. It was a hard life,but they learned to survive in these harsh conditions.Farther south, in what is now Arizona, Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico, the First Americans became cliff dwellers(悬崖居民). They began by living in caves that already existed in the cliffs.__4__ The dwellings they constructed in many ways resembled today's apartment buildings.__5__ They built a system of dams and canals so they could store and use water almost any time of the year. They were so successful that they could raise fruits and vegetables that were not found naturally in the desert.In Mexico and South America, the First Americans founded civilizations that were among the greatest in the world. They built huge pyramids, lived in fabulous cities, and made great advances in science and mathematics long before the Europeans arrived.A. They also discovered foods like corn and potatoes.B. Along the way,they established many different civilizations.C. The First Americans of the Southwest learned to irrigate the desert.D. They would have to survive in the New World they had discovered.E. They built boats of animal skins and hunted or fished for their food.F. People living near each other tended to share similar environments and customs.G. They discovered how to add to the caves by building structures of wood and stone.(四)Our Fears Can Change the Reality of the SituationAt times,our worries and anxieties can defeat us. In addition, our worries can change our understanding of what is reality and what is not. Here is a brief list of techniques that you can use to help gain a better viewpoint on things during your anxious moments.__1__ A person should take a deep breath and try to find something to do for a few minutes to get their mind off the problem. A person could get some fresh air,listen to some music,or do an activity that will give them a fresh perspective on things.Remember that our fearful thoughts are made to seem worse and can make the problem worse.__2__ When unexpectedly having thoughts that make you fearful or anxious, challenge those thoughts by asking yourself questions that will maintain objectivity and common sense.Be smart in how you deal with your fears and anxieties. Do not try to deal with everything all at once. When facing a current or upcoming task that makes your anxious, break the task into a series of smaller steps. __3__Remember that all the worrying in the world will not change anything. Most of what we worry about never comes true. __4__ Everything else you can leave in the hands of God. It is not easy to deal with all of our fears and worries. When your fears and anxieties have the best of you, try to calm down and then get the facts of the situation. The key is to take it slow. All you can do is do your best each day, hope for the best, and when something does happen, take it easy. __5__A. Take it one step at a time and things will work out.B. When feeling anxious, stop what you are doing and try to do something relaxing.C. This will give you the confidence to manage your anxiety.D. Instead of worrying about something that probably won't happen, concentrate on what you are able to do.E. The next time you feel depressed,review your list and think about the good things that you have in your life.F. A good way to manage your worry is to challenge your negative thinking with positive statements and realistic thinking.G. Completing these smaller tasks one at a time will make the stress more manageable and increases your chances of success.(五)When I walked into the house after school, the first thing I noticed was a box with items I recognized from my dad's office. When he told me that he was laid off, I thought he was joking. Then I noticed his seriousness and realized he was telling the truth. My father has always been a hard worker. He has prided himself on his career. __1__ I guess I had taken his work for granted.__2__ For starters, he was home all the time. It meant my bed had to be made, my room cleaned up, and my homework done right after school. I would come home every day to find him at the computersearching for jobs. __3__ He seemed down, though he tried to be optimistic. He asked my brother and me to spend less. I gave up my spending money,which wasn't much. I also found a part ­time job.__4__ He explained that he never wanted to be laid off again, so he was going to start his own business. Day by day, I watched him build it. One evening I asked if he needed help. “Only if it doesn't affect school, 〞he said. I showed up at his office the next afternoon, and most afternoons after that for two months.__5__ The terrible experience for our family taught me how to deal with difficulties. Now I know that through creative problem-solving, I can always find Plan B. I can ask for help and take risks. What I have learned from my dad's understanding of business and his work ethic(信条) are two of the most important lessons I will ever learn. And they will be my principles for success.A. Providing for our family has been his joy.B. I made every effort to solve his problems.C. I began to notice how losing his job had affected him.D. My father's unemployment created many changes in our lives.E. After months of searching, my dad decided to go in a totally different direction.F. His courage and determination helped him to become successful in his new career.G. I always knew he was a hard worker,but watching him in action influenced me a lot.(陆)Why Cats Scratch ThingsIt has long been assumed that when cats scratch objects with their front paws(爪子) they are sharpening their claws. __1__ Research on cat behavior suggests that the major reason for this behavior is communication. By scratching up the bark of a tree or the leg of your favorite chair, the cat is letting other cats or people know where she is and what she is up to.Cats tend to pick a small number of noticeable objects in their environments to scratch such as trees, fence posts repeatedly. __2__ The scratched surface leaves a highly visible mark that can be easily seen by other cats. In addition, cats have special glands(腺) in their paws so that when they make scratching movements they leave scent(气味) that other cats can smell. The fact that cats leave scent marks by making scratching movements may be the reason that cats will continue to scratch objects even after they have been declawed. __3__We don't know exactly what cats are communicating with their scratching. Both males and females do it. It is done inside and outside the home and even by cats living with no other cats around. __4__ Cats don't scratch up your furniture to bother you or just to be destructive, but for specific reasons, one of which is communicating. Cats also scratch to extend their bodies, during play,and possibly as a greeting or to relieve dissatisfaction when prevented from doing other things they want to do.__5__ It is easier to prevent problem scratching rather than trying to change your cat's preference for the arm of your sofa after it has become a built up habit. Thus, the goal is to establish acceptable scratching habits by getting your cat to prefer a scratching post rather than the arm of your sofa.A. It turns out that this is only a secondary reason.B. This is why the tree next door looks so scratched up.C. Cats use other parts of their bodies to communicate as well.D. Small pieces of bark have accumulated on the ground underneath.E. Scratching can result in considerable damage,owner dissatisfaction.F. Declawed cats may still be leaving scent marks on objects they scratch.G. It could be a defensive warning or just a marker that announces its existence.(七)__1__ People use money to buy food,furniture,books, bicycles and hundreds of other things they need or want. When they work ,they usually get paid in money.Most of the money today is made of metal or paper. __2__ One of the first kinds of money was shells.Shells were not the only things used as money. In China,cloth and knives were used. In the Philippine Islands,rice was used as money for a long time. Elephant tusks,monkey tails and salt were used as money in parts of Africa.The first metal coins were made in China. They were round and had a square hole in the centre. __3__Different countries have used different metals and designs for their money. __4__ Sweden and Russia used copper to make their money. Later some countries began to make coins of gold and silver. But even gold and silver were inconvenient if you had to buy something expensive. Again the Chinese thought of a way to improve money. __5__ The first paper money looked more like a note from one person to another than the paper money used today.Money has had an interesting history from the days of shell money until today.A. The first coins in England were made of tin(锡).B. But people used to use all kinds of things as money.C. No one knows for certain when people began to use money.D. People strung(串连) them together and carried them from place to place.E. Money, as we know,is all made of paper.F. They began to use paper money.G. Today anyone will accept money in exchange for goods and services.(八)A survey conducted last week by China Youth Daily and Sina. com showed about 70 percent of 3,990 interviewees believe wealthy Chinese do not have a good reputation and are not worthy of respect. “Rich people on the mainland i nvest too little in charity and gain too much,〞a student from Beijing Sports University said. __1__ They are a sense of social responsibility, self­discipline and a caring heart.The number of people who make at least $50,000 a year increases by 15 percent a year according to the China Economic Times. __2__The question how the rich became rich was on the top of the list from the interviewees surveyed. A post­graduate student at the Communication University of China said,“__3__〞This opinion has been widely acknowledged by most interviewees.__4__ Many voters thought better of rich people from Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and western countries, rather than the mainland. Hong Kong property tycoon (大亨)Li Ka­shing was most highly regarded, followed by Bill Gates, mainland property tycoon Wang Shi and basketball player Yao Ming.A professor from Renmin University of China called on the heads of Chinese companies to think andinvest in a long­term way.“___5__〞the professor added.A.Even so, the survey also found wealthy people keeping the law, and having a sense of social responsibility and a caring heart,are respected.B. Skilled communication is not the necessary quality for the rich to get social respect.C. The survey suggests the rich,to become popular and respected,need three things.D. Their social responsibility is not only in charity, but in being a tie connecting the company with the government and the public.E. What's more,some wealthy people were found dishonest sometimes.F. Our country now has 1.5 million rich people.G. Some rich people are thought to have made their wealth through illegal means, such as bribery(受贿).(九)A punctual person is in the habit of doing a thing at the proper time and is never late in keeping an appointment. The unpunctual man, on the other hand, never does what he has to do at the right time. __1__There's a proverb which says,“Time flies never to be recalled.〞This is true. __2__. The unpunctual man is for ever wasting his most valuable possessions as well as others'. The unpunctual person is always complaining that he finds no time to answer letters, or return calls or keep appointments. __3__ He knows that he can get through his huge amount of work only if he faithfully keeps every appointment and deals with every piece of work when it has to be attended to. __4__ If a person is invited to dinner and arrives later than the appointed time, he keeps all the other guests waiting for him. Usually this will be regarded as rude both to the host and the other guests. Unpunctuality, moreover,is very harmful when it comes to one's duty. Imagine how it would be if those who are put in charge of important tasks failed to be at their proper place at the appointed time. __5__A. They appear to be busy but never get well paid.B. He is always in a hurry and ends up losing time.C. Maybe nobody minds being kept waiting at a dinner party.D. A lost thing may be found again, but lost time can never be regained.E. But the man who really has a great deal to do is very careful of his time.F. A man who is known to be habitually unpunctual is never trusted by others.G. Failure to be punctual in keeping one's appointment is a sign of disrespect towards others.(十)Maybe you are an average student. You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessarily so,however. __1__ Here's how:Plan your time carefully. When planning your work, you should make a list of things that you have to do.
