2022年高考英语一轮复习:阅读理解+七选五 组合练习题3(word版,含答案)

2022年高考英语一轮复习:阅读理解+七选五组合练习题3Part A(1)Six annoying “facts”people have to finally stop believing in1.Walt Disney did not create Mickey Mouse.His close friend and collaborator Ub Iwerks did, though he was “denied credit”for creating this major piece of pop culture history. Iwerks came up with the character in 1928.2.Albert Einstein never flunked a math class as a child.When the adult Einstein was shown a newspaper article claiming he had, he replied, “Before I was 15, I had mastered differential and integral calculus.(微积分)”While Einstein achieved high grades throughout his childhood education, he “hated the strict protocols followed by teachers and rote learning demanded of students”at the schools he attended.3. Napoleon Bonaparte was not short.Despite the fact that his name has become synonymous with “angry short man,”Napoleon Bonaparte was actually of average height for the time period in which he lived. His contemporaries described him as being 5'2", but the French measured height differently back in the day, so he was actually around 5'5". That made him just “an inch or so below the period’s average adult male height.”4. Isaac Newton didn't discover gravity because an apple struck him on the head.Rather, he witnessed an apple falling and wondered why objects always fall down instead of up or sideways, a thought that inspired his Law of Universal Gravitation.5. Bats are not blind.No, bats are not blind. Bats have small eyes with very sensitive vision, which helps them see in conditions we might consider pitch black. They don't have the sharp and colorful vision humans have, but they don't need that.6. Black holes.Not really “holes,”but rather hugely dense objects with massive gravitational pull.1. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Unable to achieve high grades at school, Einstein hated the rigid rules.B.Bats have small eyes but with the same sharp and colorful vision as humans.C. Newton discovered gravity out of curiosity but by accident.D. Black holes are huge objects with massive gravitational push.2. The text is written here in order to_______________.A. present some common beliefs.B. clarify some popular myths.C. relate some interesting stories.D. list some historical facts.3. Which section of a magazine may this text be found in?A. EntertainmentB. HistoryC. EducationD. Popular science(2)We all know that a healthy life means getting both plenty of exercise and enough good-quality sleep, but reality often gets in the way. The new research indicates that doing enough exercise could make up for some of the unhealthy impacts of bad sleep. While the health benefits of exercise and sleep are nothing new, it's the relationship between them that is interesting in this particular study —it could even give doctors another option to suggest for patients dealing with sleep problems.“We found those who had both the poorest sleep quality and who exercised the least were most at risk of death from heart disease, stroke, and cancer,”says epidemiologist Bo-Huei Huang, from the University of Sydney in Australia.Participants were grouped into three levels of physical activity (high, medium or low) and were also given a sleep quality score from 0-5 based on the amount of shut-eye they got, how late they stayed up, insomnia, snoring and daytime sleepiness.Those with the highest risk of dying from cancer or heart disease during the study period were those with the worst quality sleep and who didn't meet the WHO recommended guidelines for exercise. That risk went down for people with poor quality sleep but who did meet the exercise guidelines.In the case of all forms of cancer, for example, those at the unhealthiest end of the sleep and exercise scale had a 45 percent higher risk of dying from cancer than those with good sleep scores who kept physically active. However, that risk just about disappeared for those who didn't score well on sleep but did score well on physical activity.For now it's not clear why more exercise might make up for poor sleep, as far as our health goes. It could be that the increased activity is counteracting inflammation(炎症), or reducing irregularities in glucose metabolism, suggest the researchers.“Considering that physical activity is perhaps more modifiable than sleep, our study offers people more health incentives to be physically active.”says population health researcher Emmanuel Stamatakis, from the University of Sydney.4. This research is of particular interest in that ______________.A. it’s in this study that exercise is known to be beneficial to sleep.B. this study offers people more health treatments to be physical active.C. it could enable doctors to cure patients of their sleeping condition.D. the relationship between exercise and sleep is updated in this study.5. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Those who had the poorest sleep quality were most at risk of death fromheart disease.B. Those scoring lowest on sleep and exercise scale were more likely to die from cancer.C. There’s no risk of cancer for those who didn't sleep well but did score well on physical activity.D. It's evident that in terms of health more exercise could make up for poor sleep.6. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 6 mean?A. interactingB. increasingC. preventingD. causing7.Where can this passage most probably be taken from?A. A research findings reportB. A medical examination reportC. A poor sleep study reportD. A physical activity study report(3)A growing body of research is revealing associations between birth defects(缺陷) and a father's age, alcohol use and environmental factors, say researchers at Georgetown University Medical Center. They say these defects result from epigenetic changes that can potentially affect multiple generations.The study, published in the American Journal of Stem Cells, suggest both parents contribute to the health status of their offspring------a common sense conclusion which science is only now beginning to demonstrate, says the study's senior investigator, Joanna Kitlinska, PhD, an associate professor in biochemistry, and molecular and cellular biology.“We know the nutritional, hormonal and psychological environment provided by the mother permanently influences organ structure, cellular response and gene expression in her offspring,”she says.“But our study shows the same thing to be true with fathers—his lifestyle, and how old he is, can be reflected in molecules that control gene function,”she says. “In this way, a father can affect not only his immediate offspring, but future generations as well.”For example, a newborn can be diagnosed with fetal(胎儿的) alcohol spectrum disorder(FASD), even though the mother has never consumed alcohol, Kitlinska says. “Up to 75 percent of children with FASD have biological fathers who are alcoholics, suggesting that preconceptual paternal alcohol consumption negatively impacts their offspring.”Advanced age of a father is correlated with elevated rates of certain diseases,and birth defects in his children. A limited diet during a father’s preadolescence has been linked to reduced risk of cardiovascular death in his children and grandchildren. Paternal obesity is linked to enlarged fat cells, changes in metabolic regulation, diabetes, obesity and development of brain cancer. Psychosocial stress on the father is linked to defective behavioral traits in his offspring. And paternal alcohol use leads to decreased newborn birth weight, marked reduction in overall brain size and impaired cognitive function.“This new field of inherited paternal epigenetics needs to be organized into clinically applicable recommendations and lifestyle alternations,”Kitlinska says. “And to really understand the epigenetic influences of a child, we need to study the interplay between maternal and paternal effects, as opposed to considering each in isolation.”8. What’s the message the writer conveys in the passage?A.Both parents contribute to the health status of their offspring.B.Father’s age and lifestyle are tied to birth defects.C.Father plays a more critical role in birth defects.D.Birth defects can potentially affect multiple generations.9. What can we infer from the example in Paragraph 5?A.FASD can only be diagnosed in a newborn whose father is addicted to alcohol.B.A newborn will not contract FASD if his mother has never consumed alcohol.C.A father’s lifestyle can negatively impact his offspring.D.Most children have biological fathers who are alcoholics.10. Which of the following situations is less likely to lead to children’s birth defects?A. Having a father with a limited diet.B. Having a father who is an alcoholic.C. Having an overweight father.D. Having a father with psychosocial stress.11. What will the research probably continue to focus on in the part that follows?A.The maternal epigenetic influences of a childB.The ways to avoid negative paternal influence on children.C.The clinical application of the research findings.D.The interaction between maternal and paternal effects.(4)Ivy League schools are considered to be the most prestigious of all colleges in the United States. These schools are primarily located in the Northeastern part of the country. There are eight total colleges that are considered to be Ivy League. These schools are Brown, Harvard, Cornell, Princeton, Dartmouth, Yale, and Columbia universities and the University of Pennsylvania. Of all institutions of higher learning, these elite schools are considered to be the most outstanding and the most sought-after in terms of acceptance and graduation.The term “Ivy League”came about in 1954 when the NCAA athletic conference for Division I was formed. At the time, the elitism of these schools was really due to their prestige in the realm of sports like basketball. Although the term “Ivy League”was not created until the 1950s, many of these schools were in existence as far back as 1636, when John Harvard became the first benefactor of Harvard University.Although this group of elite schools is considered to be part of one big league of the elite, there have been plenty of internal rivalries over the years. The sports that these colleges play were so popular that some teams began playing games in New York City so spectators could come from far away and watch the games. The popularity of both the athletes who played and the college team rivalries brought in a good deal of attention to the schools as well as revenue from ticket sales. There have also been academic rivalries between schools. Mostly, these rivalries are a matter of opinion in terms of which school has the most honor graduates, which schools offer the most prestigious scholarships, and what famous graduates have come from each school.Each Ivy League college has its own unique accomplishments that make it important. All carry a certain reputation with them, and each school has programs that excel primarily in the medical and law fields, making them some of the most sought-after schools in the world. Their admission process is very selective, which helps the schools ensure that they only accept the best and brightest. Many famouspeople have graduated from Ivy League schools, including recent presidents George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and Barack Obama. This prestige leads many to believe that these colleges are only for the wealthy and elite. Often, companies look for Ivy League graduates as potential employees, usually preferred by law firms, medical facilities, and large corporations. It has long been coveted to have earned a degree from an Ivy League school. Today, the Ivy League schools are still excellent in both academia and in sports, and they have left a legacy of higher education with an exceptional track record and reputation to go along with them.12. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Ivy League schools were initially famous for their reputation in sports.B. Ivy League schools didn’t come into existence until the 1950s.C. Ivy League schools do not compete with each other within the league.D. Ivy League schools are most popular for their excellence in the medical and law fields.13. Which of the following aspects is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. The history of the Ivy LeagueB. The rivalry of the Ivy LeagueC. The accomplishments and cultural impacts of the Ivy LeagueD. The future development of the Ivy League14. Why do many people believe that Ivy League colleges are only for the wealthy and elite?A. Because they are the most sought-after schools in the world.B. Because they have selective admission process to help ensure the quality of their students.C. Because many famous people have graduated from Ivy League schools.D. Because many companies look for Ivy League graduates as potential employees.15. What does the underlined word “coveted”in the last paragraph probably mean?A. advocatedB. desiredC. restrictedD.sponsoredPart B阅读下面短文,从短文后选项中选出可填入空白处的最佳选项。

阅读理解(人与自然)  阅读理解(文体艺术)  七选五练习 —2022届高考英语一轮复习

基础练6: 阅读理解A(人与自然)+ 阅读理解B(文学艺术)+七选五练习一阅读理解主题一人与自然A(2021 福建高三模拟)People today are not unfamiliar with term such as "going eco-friendly" and "sustainable lifestyle". However, there exists a group of sceptics (怀疑论者) who believe that going eco-friendly is merely a fad (一时的风尚) . I disagree with this viewpoint, Going eco-friendly is not merely a fad and it doe s, in fact, change the beliefs and attitudes of people.The long-term presence of environmental organisations shows the efforts that people have made towards going eco-friendly. Organisations such as World Wildlife Fund advocate people to go eco-friendly. The high involvement of the organisations and the participants is thus a strong indicator that going eco-fr iendly is not merely a fad but a trend that can last decades.Another strong indicator is the emergence of sustainable products in many industries, such as organic produce and electric vehicles. The consumer demand, coupled with eco-conscious (环保意识的) businesses, is behind the sharp increase in such products. This shows a shift in the beliefs and attitudes of people towards adopting a sustainable lifestyle. Thus, it seems quite certain that going eco-friendly is not merely a fad.While some people who broadcast their eco-friendly practices are criticised for just hoping to project an eco-conscious image, there are a number of celebrities who have been practising the zero-waste lifestyle for years. For those who do so for years, and not mere days or months,it is indeed a commitment that can only come with a true change in beliefs and attitudes towards caring for the earth.The call to save the earth looks set to stay. With the development of technology and the appearance of many platforms advocating going green, people ar e more willing to change their beliefs and attitudes when they can learn about and appreciate the positive impact of the work of different environmental organisations and individuals. It is hoped that these effects will go a long way in ensuring that our planet will remain a suitable place to live in.1. Why does the author mention World Wildlife Fund?A. To appreciate its environmental efforts.B. To encourage people to go eco-friendly.C. To evidence the universal recognition of going green.D. To highlight the difficulty in changing people's attitudes.2. What does the underlined word "emergence" mean in paragraph 3?A. Sudden disappearance.B. Sharp increase.C. Gradual development.D. Limited application.3. What does the author expect of technology development?A. It may discourage people from sustainable lifestyle.B. It may boost the business of organic produce.C.· It will be used to project an eco-conscious image.D. It will promote environmental awareness.4. What is the author's purpose in writing this text?A. To prove going eco-friendly a lasting trend.B. To popularize the eco-friendly products.C. To offer strategies to go eco-friendly.D. To advertise for eco-friendly platforms.B(上海高三模拟)For millions of years, Arctic sea ice has expanded and shrunk in a rhythmic dance with the summer sun. Humans evolved in this icy world, and civilization relied on it for climatic, ecological and political stability. But now the world comes ever closer to a future without ice. The National Snow and Ice Data Center reported that 2019's minimum arctic sea ice extent was the second lowest on record. Arctic summers could become mostly ice-free in 30 years, and possibly sooner if current trends continue. As the northern sea ice declines, the world must unite to preserve what remains of the Arctic.Although most people have never seen the sea ice, its effects are never far away. By reflecting sunlight, Arctic ice acts as Earth's air conditioner. Once d ark water replaces brilliant ice, Earth could warm substantially, equivalent to the warming caused by the additional release of a trillion tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere and declining sea ice threatens wildlife, from the polar bear to algae that grow beneath the sea ice, supporting the large amount of marine life.To avoid the consequences the scientific community should advocate not just for lowering greenhouse gas emissions, but also for protecting the Arctic from exploitation. The Antarctic shows the way. In the 1950s, countries raced to claim the Antarctic continent for resources and military installations. Enter the scientists. The 1957-1958 International Geophysical Year brought together scientists from competing countries to study Antarctica, and countries temporarily suspended their territorial disputes (争议). In 1959, 12 countries signed theAntarctic Treaty to preserve the continent for peaceful scientific discovery rather than territorial and military gain.Sixty years later, we must now save the Arctic. A new Marine Arctic Peace Sanctuary (MAPS) Treaty would protect the Arctic Ocean as a scientific preserve for peaceful purposes only. Similar to Antarctica, MAPS would prohibit resource exploitation, commercial fishing and shipping, and military exercises. So far, only 2 non-Arctic countries have signed MAPS; 97 more need to sign on to enact it into law. Scientists can help- -just as they did for the Antarctic ——by giving statements of support, asking scientific organizations to endorse (支持) the treaty, communicating the importance of protecting the arctic to the public and policy-makers, and above all, by convincing national leaders to sign the treaty. In particular, Arctic nations must agree that recognizing the arctic as an international preserve is better than fighting over it. In 2018, these countries successfully negotiated a 16-year moratorium on commercial fishing in the Arc tic high seas, demonstrating that such agreements are possible.Humans have only ever lived in a world topped by ice. Can we now work together to protect Arctic ecosystems, keep the northern peace, and allow the : sea ice to return?1. What can be inferred from the passage?A. wildlife relies on sea ice for food and water.B. The Arctic would be ice-free in 30 years.C. Sea ice slows down the global warming.D. The melting of sea ice releases CO2.2. The Antarctic is mentioned in the passage in order toA. remind readers of the past of the AntarcticB. propose a feasible approach for the ArcticC. stress the importance of preserving sea iceD. recall how the Antarctic Treaty came into being3. The word“moratorium”(in paragraph 4) is closest in meaning toA. battleB.banC. memoD.protection4.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. Antarctic: a Successful Comeback?B. Sea Ice and Global WarmingC. Arctic: the Earth's FutureD. Life Without Ice?主题二——文体艺术CThe Photographer of the Year contest, supported by companies in various fields, is based in the UK and attracts worldwide photography lovers. Th ough the first award was given out in 1965, the official contest didn't really start until 2015. With wonderful pictures from thousands of photographers, the 2 020 contest rewarded its winners in February.Octopus (章鱼) TrainingThis photo was taken by Pasquale Vassallo of Italy and won in the group of“Behavior”. Vassallo said when he came up after a dive, he noticed a soccer ball floating on the surface. When he checked it out, he witnessed a rare scene- -an octopus hanging from the ball. He didn't understand what the octopus was doing, but wondered if it was training for the World Cup.Lemon Shark NurseryTaken by Anita Kainrath of the Bahamas, it shows young sharks swimming around in the protection of a beautiful thick forest. Kainrath said she spent n early an hour standing in knee-high water being bitten by mosquitoes to get her picture, which won the Up & Coming Photographer of the Year 2020 award.Angry SeahorseThough Rooman Luc of Belgium didn't win the“Portrait”category, his photo; titled“Angry Seahorse”, is quite striking. The close-up shot of a seahorse staring into the camera was named the runner-up. Mr. Luc said that after first hearing about the seahorse, he went looking for it every week for two months before finally finding it.Last Dawn, Last GaspVassallo also took the prize in the“Marine Conversation”division with Last Dawn, Last Gasp, an appropriately breathtaking shot of a tuna fish tapped i n a net, struggling in vain to escape.

A good and responsible apology can meet the moment and improve our relationships. ___31___Less is more.K eep your apology short and avoid the drama.

Instead, you should keep an open mind and listen with an aim to understand the other person.___35___ . An apology isn’t the only chance you ever get to address the exist ing issue.

And just like people are all different, the world is also very complex. Every situation is different, always. Just because someone doesn’t make the choice that you would make or just because they take a less efficient or smart path to get where they’re going doesn’t make them wrong.Practice forgiveness.___39___ Sometimes you just have to stop and give people the benefit of the doubt (to believe someone even though you are not sure whether what the person is saying is true).

It’s as simple as it sounds. ____42____ According to two studies recently published in The Journal of Positive Psychology, those who actively tried to feel happier in the studies reported the highest level of positive moods(心情), making a case for thinking yourself happy.They are mindful of the good.____43____However, happy people give attention to their smaller victories, too. “When we take time to notice the things that go right, it means we’re getting a lot of little rewards throughout the day,” says Susan Weinschenk, a Ph.D.in Psychology.They devote some of their time to giving.Even though there are only 24 hours in a day, positive people fill some of that time doing good for others, which, in return, does some good for the do-gooders themselves. A long-term research project called Americans’ Changing Lires found a series of benefits associated with altruism(利他主义).____44____People of all ages who volunteered were happier and experienced better physical health and less depression.____45____“When you listen, you open up your ability to take in more knowledge,” writes David Mezzapelle, author of Contagious Optimism.

Repurpose newspapers, old posters and children’s school artworks as wrapping paper. There are plenty of other eco-friendly alternatives to wrapping paper that are just delightful and celebratory.___49___ Use baskets, fabric, gift boxes or bags, tea towels, and more to contain and display your presents. Learn the Japanese art of wrapping, using beautiful knots(绳结) to fasten colorful, reusable fabrics in attractive ways. This way, you’ll have no wrapping paper waste to deal with.Ask for better paper. Shops store what customers want, and recyclability should be a toppriority, so let that be known when you’re out shopping. As explained by Simon Ellin, CEO of the Recycling Association, a trade body that represents about 90 waste management companies and paper merchants in the United Kingdom, “It’s a campaign we’ve been on all year — do you really need to design a non-paper wrapping paper?

Sometimes, they even feel too nervous to ask a question in class or go to a teacher for help. Social phobia not only prevents people from trying new things. It also prevents them from making the normal, everyday mistakes that help people improve their skills still further.It is really sad, isn’t it? But the good news is that people with social phobia can learn to manage fear, develop confidence and communicating skills and stop avoiding things that make them nervous. Of course it’s not always easy. Dealing with social phobia takes patience, courage to face fears and the willingness to practice. ____53____Therapists (治疗师) can help people create a plan for facing social fears and build the skills and confidence to overcome it. And family or friends are especially important for them.____54____Friends and family can encourage them to pick a small goal to aim for, remind themto go for it, and be there when they might feel discouraged. Good friends and family are there to celebrate each small success along the way.Little by little, someone who decides to deal with extreme shyness can learn to be more comfortable. ____55____ As shyness and fears begin to melt, confidence and positive feelings build.

It can also calculate the weight of the garbage and the accumulated points one can get. They can be traded for some articles of daily use. ___58___ Its body is actually a screen. It is equipped with some Internal sensors. When people throw garbage into it, the internal sensors can automatically tell the types of the garbage. Meanwhile, people can see how to deal with them. ___59___ Garbage disposal is a small issue that involves everybody each day. However, it is also a big issue.___60___ With smart garbage cans in our daily life, the idea of garbage sorting will becomemore established.

There are still parts of society that lack trust in digital payments or have barriers to accessing mobile phones and the Internet.____65____ It is also about to launch a national digital currency (货币), the world’s first. Nearly everything can be transacted by digital means here. As we prepare for the consequence of COVID-19, and use the model set by China, other countries need to take it upon themselves to provide a harmonious, effective, and cashless society — one that does not leave anyone behind.A.However, this is far from reality.B.Several countries have entered cashless society.C.A cashless society might actually worsen these problems.D.COVID-19 has sped up the move away from physical cash.E.In China, four out of every five payments are now cashless.F.It isn’t just the unbanked who are at risk of being left behind.G.So financial inclusion needs to be the core value in a cashless society.An old friend of mine was in town and organized a get-together.

I don’t know about you, but my memory is not good enough to even remember all the true things I say. ___68___● People respect the truth.I had meant to go to a friend’s house for dinner once, but she called in the morning of the day to cancel. She said, “I’m sorry Susie but... I’m just so tired and I need today to rest.” I didn’t get angry at that moment. ___69___ And we had a nice phone call, instead.● “No” is enough.It’s so easy to give a quick “yes” and have regrets later, or makeup a lie to get out of something.

高三英语一轮复习---七选五答题技巧讲解和练习

高三英语一轮复习---七选五答题技巧讲解和练习

高考七选五复习知识精讲高考的7选5题型,它要求考生在一段留有5个空白的约300词的短文中个,根据文章结构、内容,从所给的7个选项中选出最佳答案,填入相应的空白处,使补全后的短文意思通顺、前后连贯。

这种题型突出考查语篇结构分析能力,属于对语言使用范畴及语言组织规律的考查,即对文章结构以及整体内容和结构以及上下文逻辑意义的理解和掌握。

具体答题步骤如下:步骤一:快速浏览一遍七个备选答案,先确定哪个选项适合放在文章的什么位置。

通常有三个四个位置:标题,句首,句中,句尾。

不同位置的句子有不同的特征。

有时有的答案表述上就是错误的,可以直接从备选项中清除,以降低难度。

步骤二:快速浏览文章,确定文章体裁,抓住文章结构。

不同的文章有不同的结构形式,确定文章体裁有利于我们确定各段之间的关系。

一般说来,记叙文的语言是按时间发展顺序或因果关系排列的,常用的连接词有:then, later, after that, soon, after a while, in the end, so, as a result, because of等。

说明文常采用“总—分—总”的结构形式,第一段说明要说明的主题,下面几段多是从不同的角度来说明问题,最后总结,所以各段之间多是平行关系,经常出现举例说明的现象。

议论文先抛出议题,然后从正反两个方面进行讨论,最后得出结论。

新闻体裁的应用文首句为主题句,下面展开细节性的报道。

确定文章体裁有利于预测文章各段主要内容和结构形式,形成重要的选择依据步骤三:分析篇章结构,找出各段的主题句或主旨大意。

分析文章的层次包含两种形式:一种是分析整篇文章的层次,也就是段落,说明文和议论文这样体裁的文章,每段的第一句多是主题句找到主题句有助于帮助确定选择的范围,即所选句子必须和该段主题一致。

另一种是分析每一个段落内部的层次,也就是语篇层次。

要真正体会句际间的意义关系,把握作者的思路,从语序上去发现断续点,理清层次步骤四:注意各选项中出现的句子衔接手段,寻找句中衔接标志词。

Do cleaning to keep your kitchen in order.23. How can you learn more information about more classes?A. By writing an e-mail.B. By making a phone call.C. By visiting Chiara in person.D. By leaving a message on the website.(2)In Europe, there is no escape for those who do not appreciate art and architecture(建筑). It is a heaven for people who want to feel like they have been transported to famous historical time periods from America. For me, Europe was a complete contrast from America. London and France had a more royal feel than New York, and Rome felt more ancient. I wasn’t just on a different continent; it felt like I was in a different century.My parents and I visited London, Paris and Rome this summer in celebration of the end of my high school experience. It was supposed to be a break from a life as busy as a bee in New York, the constant stress, the crowded subway rides, and the weary body that had accompanied me for the last four years. It was an opportunity to appreciate Europe the way I couldn’t do it just by reading history books.My favourite parts of London were the Tower of London and the Churchill War Rooms. As a site of past executions(刑场), the Tower of London displayed punishing devices from the 16th and 17th century and told stories of various members of the royal family who had ever been imprisoned in the tower, some even imprisoned by their own family members when they were seen as a threat to the crown. Besides that, I also got to see the royal family’s crown jewels, amazingly beautiful.The Churchill War Rooms, though very different from the Tower of London, were also spellbinding from a historic perspective. I am not a history fan, but I enjoy museums, and I took a fancy to the Churchill Museum inside the War Rooms that detailed the events of Churchill’s life and World War Ⅱ. Everything I saw in it built up his life from his childhood to his last years, creating a three-dimensional Churchill in my mind who was a person just like myself. He longed for more. He made mistakes. He experienced loneliness and sadness. But he had also done some remarkable things like uniting Britain during World War Ⅱ.Our rewarding trip ended in Rome a couple of days later.( )24. What does the underlined word “contrast”in Paragraph 1 mean?A.Something different.B.Something artistic.C.Something similar.D.Something faraway.( )25. Which of the following can best describe the writer’s life in New York?A.Relaxing and peaceful.B.Stressful and tiring.C.Joyful but busy.D.Boring but successful.( )26. What can be learned from Paragraph 3?A.The T ower of London is a symbol of peace.B.The royal family members used to live in harmony.C.The T ower of London witnessed changes of royal families.D.Visitors could buy the crown jewels in Churchill War Rooms.( )27. What really got the writer spellbound in the Churchill Museum?A.The unique architecture.B.World War Two.C.Churchill’s achievements.D.Churchill’s real life.(3)As William Shakespeare is to literature in English, so is the poet Du Fu to the Chinese literary tradition. "We have Dante, Shakespeare and Du Fu. These poets create the very values by which poetry is judged,“remarked Harvard Professor Stephen Owen in Du Fu ,China's Greatest Poet, a new BBC documentary(纪录片)that aired on April 7.Aimed at introducing the charm and beauty of traditional Chinese literature to viewers around the globe, the documentary invited famous British actor Ian McKellen, who played the wizard Gandalf in the film series The Lord of the Rings, to read 15 of Du's poems that have been translated into English.。

新高考英语一轮复习专题二七选五阅读练习含答案

专题二七选五阅读五年高考新高考题组Passage 1(2023新课标Ⅰ)主题:生活态度Personal ForgivenessTaking responsibility for mistakes is a positive step, but don't beat yourself up about them. To err(犯错) is human. 1.You can use the following writing exercise to help you do this.In a journal or on a piece of paper, put the heading “Personal strengths.” 2.Are you caring? Creative? Generous? A good listener? Fun to be around? They don't have to be world-changing, just aspects of your personality that you're proud of.At the top of a second page, put the heading “Acts of kindness.” On this one, list all the positive things you've done for others. It might be the time when you helped a friend with their homework, when you did the ironing without being asked, or when you baked cookies after the family had had a tiring day. 3.You could ask a friend or family member to help add to your list. 4.That way, you could exchange thoughts on what makes each of you special and the aspects of your personality that shine through. In fact, don't wait until you've made a mistake to try this—it's a great way to boost self-confidence at any time.It's something of a cliché(陈词滥调) that most people learn not from their successes but their mistakes. The thing is, it's true. 5.We're all changing and learning all the time and mistakes are a positive way to develop and grow.A. A little self-forgiveness also goes a long way.B. Now list all the characteristics you like about yourself.C. They might even like to have a go at doing the exercise.D. It's just as important to show yourself some forgiveness.E. It doesn't mean you have to ignore what's happened or forget it.F. Whatever it is, no matter how small it might seem, write it down.G. Whatever the mistake, remember it isn't a fixed aspect of your personality.答案1. D2. B3. F4. C5. GAs an artist who shares her journey on social media, I'm often asked by curious followers how to begin an art journey. Unfortunately, there is no magic list I can offer. I do remember, though, what it was like to be a complete beginner. So I've put together some good tips for starting an art journey.•Start small. I suggest using a sketchbook(素描本) for small studies. These small studies provide inspiration and may be a springboard for more complex works in the future. 1. You'll want to look back on your journey to see how far you've come.•Paint of ten and paint from life. There's no better way to improve than to put in those brush miles. Whether you paint still lifes, portraits, or landscapes, paint from life as much as possible. 2.•Continually challenge yourself to try something new. 3.Artistic growth can be a bit painful. Welcome to the club; we've all been there. I love taking on challenges. I once took up a challenge to create a painting every day for a month and post the works online.•4.Seeking and accepting constructive feedback(反馈) is crucial to growth. I post my work on social media and, in turn, have met some of the kindest people. They make me feel valued and respected, no matter my level of artistic ability.The journey you're on won't follow a straight path. 5.Push through, give it time and put in the effort. You will harvest the rewards of an artistic life.A. Get out of your comfort zone.B. Make career plans and set goals.C. Don't throw away your beginner art.D. Share your work if you feel comfortable doing so.E. You'll hit roadblocks, and you'll feel discouraged at times.F. Evaluate your performance and, if needed, redefine your role.G. You'll develop that painting muscle memory that only comes with repetition.答案1. C2. G3. A4. D5. EFitness Magazine recently ran an article titled “Five Reasons to Thank Your Workout Partner.” One reason was: “You'll actually show up if you know someone is waiting for you at the gym,” while another read: “1.” With a workout partner, you will i ncrease your training effort as there is a subtle(微妙) competition.So, how do you find a workout partner?First of all, decide what you want from that person. 2.Or do you just want to be physically fit, able to move with strength and flexibility? Think about the exercises you would like to do with your workout partner.You might think about posting what you are looking for on social media, but it probably won't result in a useful response. 3.If you plan on working out in a gym, that person must belong to the same gym.My partner posted her request on the notice board of a local park. Her notice included what kind of training she wanted to do, how many days a week and how many hours she wanted to spend on each session, and her age. It also listed her favorite sports and activities, and provided her phone number. 4.You and your partner will probably have different skills. 5.Over time, both of you will benefit—your partner will be able to lift more weights and you will become more physically fit. The core of your relationship is that you will always be there to help each other.A. Your first meeting may be a little awkward.B. A workout partner usually needs to live close by.C. You'll work harder if you train with someone else.D. Do you want to be a better athlete in your favorite sport?E. How can you write a good “seeking training partner” notice?F. Just accept your differences and learn to work with each other.G. Any notice for a training partner should include such information.答案1. C2. D3. B4. G5. FWriting an essay is a difficult process for most people. However, the process can be made easier if you learn to practice three simple techniques.1.When you are first trying to think of ideas for an essay, put your pen to your paper and write nonstop for ten or fifteen minutes without letting your pen leave the paper. Stay loose and free.2.Don't worry about grammar or spelling. Even though this technique won't work for everyone, it helps many people get a good store of ideas to draw on.The next technique is to write your draft rapidly without worrying about being perfect. 3. Yet, by learning to live with imperfection, you will save yourself headaches and a wastepaper basket full of crumpled(弄皱)paper. Think of your first draft as a path cut out of the jungle—as part of an exploration, not as a complete highway.The third technique is to try printing out a triple-spaced(三倍行距)copy to allow space for revision. 4.As a result, these writers never get in the habit of crossing out chunks(大块)of their draft and writing revisions in the blank space. After you have revised your draft until it is too messy to work from anymore, you can enter your changes into your word processor. 5.The resulting blank space invites you to revise.A. Make sure your handwriting is neat.B. Let your pen follow the waves of thought.C. The second draft of the essay should be better.D. First of all, learn the technique of nonstop writing.E. Too many writers try to get their drafts right the first time.F. Many beginning writers don't leave enough space to revise.G. Then you can print out a fresh draft, again setting your text on triple-space.答案1. D2. B3. E4. F5. GMy 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 to leave our suitcases in the hallway.The place wasn't entirely authentic, 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 maste red, and it's a shame I don'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 $18!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 the 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.答案1. F2. C3. G4. E5. AIf the only reading you ever do is the novel or magazine, the speed at which you read probably does not matter very much. But if you have to read a great deal for study, you will appreciate the benefits of being able to read more quickly. 1.●Before you open the book, make sure that you are comf ortable. You need a seat which supports your back and the book should be at the right distance from your eyes. 2.●3.Look at the table of contents, the preface, the chapter heading, etc. This will help you to decide whether you really need to read the whole book or only certain parts of it. Ten minutes spent in this way could save you quite a lot of time in the long run.●If you decide that you need to read the whole book, decide how much you can read at a time.4. A history book which may contain the facts in story form will be easier to read than one dealing with scientific subjects. In the former case you may be able to read a chapter. In the latter you may only be able to read one page.●Always keep a pencil and paper beside you. 5.Note also the facts important for your purpose as well as anything which leads you to further research. You don't have to write these things in detail. It is enough to put the page number and one or two words as a reminder.A. Stop to have a rest now and then.B. Spend a few minutes looking through the book.C. This depends on the type of book you are reading.D. Here are some tips to help improve your reading speed.E. Make a note of any page which is of special importance.F. You may find yourself having to learn something by heart.G. Keep the room cool rather than warm to avoid feeling sleepy.答案1. D2. G3. B4. C5. ESome individuals are born with a gift for public speaking. 1.Do you want to be a good public speaker? Here are some principles you must master.People want to listen to someone who is interesting, relaxed and comfortable. Too often, when you stand up to give a speech, you focus on the “public” at the expense of the“speaking.” 2. Focus on the speaking. Talk directly to your audience, be yourself and make a connection.Even the most successful public speaker will make mistakes. Yet, the only one who cares about any mistake is the one who is speaking. People's attention wanders constantly. In fact, most people only absorb about 20 percent of a speaker's message. So, don't stop speaking when you make a mistake unless it's a truly serious one. 3.Your goal is not to be a perfect public speaker. 4.And like everything else in life, that takes practice. Remember, even world champion athletes practice their skills on a consistent basis.5.It's rare to hear someone say,“I wish that speaker had spoken longer.” On the other hand, you probably can't count the times tha t you've thought,“I'm glad that talk is over. It seemed to go on forever!” So surprise your audience. Always make your presentation just a bit shorter than anticipated. It's better to leave your listeners wishing for more than shifting restlessly in their seats waiting for your speech finally to end.A. Do the opposite.B. You want to be an effective public speaker.C. You don't need to apologize for a minor slip.D. When it comes to public speaking, less is usually more.E. The objective of most speeches is to benefit the audience.F. Take the fear out of public speaking by focusing on your listeners.G. However, the majority of people are effective speakers because they train to be.答案1. G2. A3. C4. B5. DTalking with your doctorTalking freely with your doctor can make you feel better and gives your doctor the information she or he needs to give you the best care. Don't be afraid or embarrassed to discuss something that is bothering you. 1.●Stay positive.Go to your doctor's visits with a good attitude. 2.Think teamwork! Think positive!●Keep track of how you are feeling.3.This will make it easier for you to answer questions about your symptoms(症状) and how medicines make you feel. It also makes it easier for you to bring up anything that you are worried about. Make sure to be honest about how you feel and how long you've felt that way.●4.Your medical history is a list of your illnesses, treatments, what the doctors told you to do, and anything else you think your doctor should know. Also, if you are allergic(过敏) to any medicines, be sure to mention that to your doctor.●Ask questions.Do not be afraid to ask your doctor any questions you have. To remember all the questions you have when you are not in the doctor's office, write them down and bring the list with you to your appointment. 5.Remember—there's no such thing as a stupid question. If you don't understand the answer to a question, ask the doctor to explain it again until you do understand.A. This will make getting answers easier.B. Here are some tips for talking with your doctor.C. You can talk to another doctor if the treatments don't work.D. Before your doctor's visit, keep notes on how you are feeling.E. Remember, your doctor and other caregivers are on your side.F. Bring your medical history, including a list of your current medicines.G. Writing down what the doctor says will help you remember important information.答案1. B2. E3. D4. F5. A其他卷题组Passage 9(2023全国甲)主题:完善自我Tricks To Becoming A More Patient PersonHere's a riddle: What do traffic jams, long lines and waiting for a vacation to start all have in common? There's one answer:1..In the Digital Age, we're used to having what we need immediately and right at our fingertips. However, research suggests that if we practiced patience, we'd be a whole lot better off. Here are several tricks.•Practice gratitude(感激)Thankfulness has a lot of benefits: Research shows it makes us happier, less stressed and even more optimistic. 2.. “Showing thankfulness can foster self-control,” said Ye Li, researcher at the University of California.•Make yourself waitInstant gratification(满足) may seem like the most “feel good” option at the time, but psychology research suggests waiting for things actually makes us happier in the long run. And the only way for us to get into the habit of waiting is to practice. 3.. Put off watching your favorite show until the weekend or wait 10 extra minutes before going for that cake. You'll soon find that the more patience you practice, the more you start to apply it to other, more annoying situations.•4.So many of us have the belief that being comfortable is the only state we will tolerate, and when we experience something outside of our comfort zone, we get impatient about the circumstances. You should learn to say to yourself,“5..” You'll then gradually become more patient.A. Find your causesB. Start with small tasksC. Accept the uncomfortableD. All this adds up to a state of hurryE. It can also help us practice more patienceF. This is merely uncomfortable, not intolerableG. They're all situations where we could use a little extra patience答案1. G2. E3. B4. C5. FPassage 10(2023北京)主题:未来规划It's a joyful and stressful time of year in the United States for students and their families as they make decisions about where to attend college. Families often turn to rankings systems to help make a decision. 1.When I talk to families as a scholar of higher education, they're often surprised that teaching excellence is not counted in rankings. 2.Emerging research suggests that courses in lower-ranked universities, on average, scored higher on teaching than courses in higher-ranked universities. 3.The absence of teaching excellence from the rankings is surprising given the link between high-quality teaching and student success. Quality teaching is one of the most important predictors of a wide range of college outcomes.Rankings, however, are only one reason why a low value is placed on teaching in higher education. Administrators often don't view teaching excellence as a way to increase enrolment(注册) or funding. 4.Research shows that the more time instructors spend on teaching, the lower their salary. What is the result? Many instructors continue to teach using traditional lectures, which lead to lower success rates.5.Nevertheless, not much will change until schools with high-quality teaching are rewarded with more resources, higher rankings and increased enrolments. In the long term, universities, organisations that rank schools, and others should work to make teaching a valued, core part of the mission.What should students and their families do? They should give strong consideration to universities where high-quality teaching is valued, even though the schools may be ranked lower.A. Higher education has achieved its true potential.B. Therefore, it's not highly valued in hiring or promotion.C. Quality teaching has been an important reputation-building factor.D. However, the rankings ignore a critical factor:the quality of teaching.E. Efforts to improve teaching at the university level have recently emerged.F. They're even more surprised at how teaching is undervalued by universities.G. In fact, universities often shift emphasis from teaching to other ranking factors.答案1. D2. F3. G4. B5. EWith gas prices rising and airport security lines snaking longer than ever,why not book your next domestic vacation on a train? Compared to other alternatives, it's comfortable and relaxing. Here is some advice on how to make a trip by rail as pleasant as possible.Plan ahead. Most long-distance trains, especially the sleeping car accommodations, sell out very quickly. 1.But no matter when you travel, it's a good idea to make your reservations at least 90 days in advance.Use a travel agent. Consider turning your travel plan over to a travel agent and letting him double-check all the details, make suggestions, and then handle the actual reservations. A good one can sometimes find you discounted tickets. 2.Then you won't have to walk through several cars on a moving train three times a day for your meals.Bring a blanket. When you're riding on trains, you won't be provided with a blanket for free, even if your trip is an overnight one. 3.In the summer in particular,the air conditioning can make them quite cold.Arrive early. Most trains operate just once a day and some run only three times a week, so missing yours can be a disaster. 4.Note: The times listed on the schedules are departure times, not arrival times.Have fun. 5.Read a book, knit, do a crossword puzzle, or simply watch the world unfold outside the window. To calculate your speed as you do, divide 3,600 (the number of seconds in an hour) by the number of seconds it takes you to travel one mile (the distance between two mileposts). If it takes the train 53 seconds to travel one mile, you're going 67.92 mph.A. Train trips aren't for impatient types.B. You'll have views from both sides of the train.C. The temperature on rail cars is often hard to control.D. That's particularly true during busy summer months.E. You might have to wait longer than 24 hours to catch the next one.F. Chances are the cost will be a lot less than the cost of one bedroom.G. He may also book you in a sleeping car that's right next to the diner.答案1. D2. G3. C4. E5. AI have a drawer full of letters to Santa. Each year my children would write up their Christmas wish lists. They were polite requests for the latest game or toy. As the children got older, they would give Santa some hints(提示) on where to buy their presents. 1.Those letters taught my children a valuable lesson about writing: It has a purpose. Sometimes our purpose is to achieve something; other times it may be to entertain, inform, or persuade. 2. And when writing doesn't seem to have any purpose or get any kind of meaningful response, then it can be hard to get excited about doing it.Christmas is a great time of year for children to communicate with others through writing. When children write for real audiences and real purposes, they can learn to choose their words accordingly. 3.You write “Dear Santa” because you don't know him personally and you want to show him respect.4.Texting, online messaging, live chats while playing video games all mean that they are constantly producing written messages. However, because they are usually writing to family and friends, they use informal language most of the time.There is nothing wrong with this kind of writing. It suits the audience and the purpose and gets the job done. 5.This type of writing won't be rewarded by the school examiner, nor by a future employer or a potential client. The very best communicators are those who know how to adjust their language to match their audience.A. It isn't that these young people can't write.B. But it is always purposeful—or at least it should be.C. The age of pen-and-paper letter writing may have passed.D. As a result, each year they received something they wanted.E. You write “Hi Nanna and Pop” because you are close to them.F. As technology develops, young people are writing more than they ever have.G. But if this is the only kind of writing young people do, it will cause problems.答案1. D2. B3. E4. F5. GI have the same 24 hours in a day as you do, but I have made specific choices that allow me to make the most of every day, and still feel happy and relaxed. 1.•Pick the most important.2.Focus on spending time that for you is fun and productive. I chose the life of an adviser because I like to work with companies, but don't want the life of a big company CEO. My choices are based on the lifestyle I want.•Combine your activities.Many people go crazy trying to figure out how to spend time with friends,family,work,play,etc.3.Find ways to enjoy them in a combined manner. Build your social life around people in your work environment. Find people in your company who share common interests and develop your career (职业) around the people and activities you love.•4.You would think learning takes more time from you, but actually there are always new ways of doing things that can save you time on daily tasks,freeing you up for the most important. Always be looking for a new way to gain back an hour here or there.•Lighten up.The world won't come to an end in most cases just because you left a few things undone. Celebrate progress and keep refining(改进)toward a happy productive existence. 5.Every completion is a small victory that adds up in a big way.A. Speed up.B. Be an active learner.C. Stop trying to balance time between them all.D. Make choices about what is meaningful in your life.E. The things you do well usually give you greater joy.F. Perhaps these tips will help you make the most of your time.G. This is why making lists is important in any productivity handbook.答案1. F2. D3. C4. B5. GYou've got mail...and it's a postcardPaulo Magalhaes, a 34-year-old Portuguese computer engineer, loves to open his mailbox and find a brightly colored picture of Rome's Colosseum. Or Africa's Victoria Falls. Or China's Great Wall. 1.“I often send postcards to family and friends,” he says to China Daily, “but you can imagine that after a while, you never receive as many as you send, and you realize that not everyone is into it.2.”Seeking other like-minded souls, however, Paulo started looking in a somewhat unlikely place:online. Many would say the Internet is a place for people who have given up on the traditional postal service, but Paulo's hunch(直觉)paid off.Today his hobby has developed into the website , a social network that has grown to 575,217 registered users in 214 countries and regions since he started it 10 years ago. 3. Running the website has almost turned into a full-time job.Language is certainly a barrier for many people. For postcrossing to work worldwide, a common communication language is needed so that everyone can understand each other. As cool as it may be to receive a postcard written in Chinese, the concept doesn't work if one doesn't understand it. 4.So a common language is required and in postcrossing that's English since it's widely spoken.“Many people in China have limited exposure to English. 5.That said, we know of many postcrossing members, including Chinese, who have actually improved their English skills through their use of postcrossing,” Paulo says.A. And that's totally fine.B. That makes it extra hard to learn and practice it.C. He likes to think of sending postcards as a family-friendly hobby.D. Many love to make a connection with someone from across the world.E. On August 5, the number of postcards exchanged by members topped 31 million.F. Similarly, if you speak only Chinese, receiving a card in Swedish takes part of the fun away.G. In short, he loves postcards, and the excitement of getting a hand-written note from someone far away.答案1. G2. A3. E4. F5. BYou run into the grocery store to pick up one bottle of water. You get what you need, head to the front, and choose the line that looks fastest.You chose wrong. People who you swear got in other lines long after you are already checked out and off to the parking lot. 1.It turns out, it's just math working against you; chances are, the other line really is faster.Grocery stores try to have enough employees at checkout to get all their customers through with minimum delay. 2.Any small interruption—a price check, a chatty customer—can have downstream effects, holding up an entire line.If there are three lines in the store, delays will happen randomly at different registers. Think about the probability:3.So it's not just in your mind: Another line probably is moving faster.Researchers have a good way to deal with this problem. Make all customers stand in one long, snaking line—called a serpentine line—and serve each person at the front with the next available register. 4.This is what they do at most banks and fast-food restaurants. With a serpentine line, a long delay at one register won't unfairly punish the people who lined up behind it. Instead, it will slow down everyone a little bit but speed up checkout overall.5.It takes many registers to keep one line moving quickly, and some stores can't afford the space or manpower. So wherever your next wait may be: Good luck.A. Why does this always seem to happen to you?B. So why don't most places encourage serpentine lines?C. Some of them may have stood in a queue for almost an hour.D. The chances of your line being the fastest are only one in three.E. How high is the probability that you are in the fastest waiting line?F. With three registers, this method is much faster than the traditional approach.G. But sometimes, as on a Sunday afternoon, the system gets particularly busy.答案1. A2. G3. D4. F5. B。

What does it take to achieve happiness? 36 Here are a few tips that I follow to create happiness in my life..Make a plan for attaining goals that you believe will make you happy. Your moods will very likely increase if you are going after something you value.Surround yourself with happy people. It is easy to begin to think negatively when you are surrounded by people who think that way. 37When something goes wrong, try to figure out a solution instead of being absorbed in self-pity. Truly happy people don’t allow setbacks to affect their mood because they know that with a little thought they can turn the circumstances back to their favor.38 These few minutes will give you the opportunity to focus on the positive things in your life and will lead you to continuous happiness.39 Whether you treat yourself to lunch, take a long, relaxing bath or simply spend a few extra minutes on your appearance, you will be subconsciously putting yourself in a better mood.Finding the humor in situations can also lead to happiness. Find a way to make light of a situation that would otherwise make you happy.Keeping healthy is another way to achieve happiness. 40 . So you see, following those above you may surely be in a positive mood every day.A. What makes one person happy may be very different from what makes someone else happy.B.

These are important questions for anyone who is seeking happiness to ask themselves.E. Spend a few minutes each day thinking about the things that make you happy.F.

Passage 1Getting your children to study can be a little like getting them to eat their vegetables.1 Make a study time and have it at the same time every day.This will help your kids to learn to schedule their day and will give them a sense of control over how they spend their time.Allow them to study in blocks of time,such as for half an hour with a five-minute break in the middle. 2 Ideal (理想的) study time is after dinner or right after school before dinner.Never allow your children to study in front of television,as that will encourage passive activity. 3 You’ll also need to help your kids find the right place to study.After you’ve set up a good study time for little learners,set up a good place where they can get those creative juices flowing.4 Make sure there is a table or a desk and a comfortable chair.5 This includes helping them out with their homework sometimes and being there for them with the answers to any questions.The input you give your children during study periods will help form a bond and help make studying enjoyable.A.Pick a place where your children can study properly.B.Hold them to the schedule they create for themselves.C.Finally,spend time with your kids when they’re studying.D.Keep the atmosphere light and offer lots of encouragement,too.E.Instead,use TV as a treat or a reward when the homework is completed.F.Try to stop this bad habit by offering some sort of reward.G.One of the best ways to form good study habits for your kids is to design a schedule that they keep to.答案:1~5 GBEACPassage 2The seven Cs of a good letterWhat is the secret of writing a good letter? You will be successful if you follow these seven Cs.Clear. 1 Make them easy to understand.Talk as if the reader were right there with you.Correct.Writing should be taken seriously. 2 Use your dictionary.If you need to,check a reference book e them as much as you need to.plete your points.Finish one point completely before going on to the next.Courteous (礼貌的).Be friendly.Present your information nicely even if you are complaining about something. 3Concise.Make each point as clearly and briefly as you can.Conversational.This is really the secret of good writing, 4 Such a letter has a natural,friendly tone.Considerate. 5 Write about what you believe the reader needs or wants to know.Try to be helpful.This will build good feeling toward you.The seven Cs are about writing letters.But how about school papers? Use the seven Cs.Write as if you are talking to your teacher or professor.You’ll be surprised.You’ll almost instantly become a good writer.And you might even enjoy writing from now on.e short,direct sentences.B.Include long sentences in your letter.C.Think of the readers’ point of view as you write.D.Just “talk” to the person.E.In all letters,treat others as you want them to treat you.F.Don’t guess,even for spelling.G.Make sure what you say is correct.答案:1~5 AFEDCPassage 3Why Is Exercise Cool?1.Exercise Strengthens MusclesDid you ever do a push-up or swing across the monkey bars at the playground?1 By using your muscles to do powerful things,you can make them stronger.For older teens and adults,this kind of workout can make muscles bigger,too.2. 2Can you touch your toes easily without yelling ouch? Most kids are pretty flexible,which means that they can bend and stretch their bodies without much trouble.Being flexible is having “full range of motion”,which means you can move your arms and legs freely without feeling tightness or pain.3.Exercise Keeps the Balance3 Your body needs a certain amount of calories every day just to function,breathe,walk around,and do all the basic stuff.4 If you’re not very active,your body won’t need as many calories.Whatever your calorie need is,if you eat enough to meet that need,your body weight will stay about the same.If you eat more calories than your body needs,it may be stored as extra fat.4.Exercise Makes You Feel GoodIt feels good to have a strong,flexible body that can do all the activities you enjoy—like running,jumping,and playing with your friends.It’s also fun to be good at something,like scoring a basket,hitting a home run,or perfecting a dive.But you may not know that exercising can actually put you in a better mood. 5 It’s just another reason why exercise is cool!A.So do you want to do any aerobic (有氧的) exercise right now?B.Food gives your body fuel in the form of calories,which are a kind of energy.C.When you exercise,your brain releases a chemical,which may make you feel happier.D.Those are exercises that can build strength.E.Exercise Makes You FlexibleF.Exercise Makes Your Heart HappyG.But if you’re active,your body needs an extra measure of calories or energy. 答案:1~5 DEBGC。

AA Look at Four of the World-famous CollegesUniversity College London, England. United KingdomThis university was founded with the intent of opening education equally and to all. In 1878, University College London began admitting women using the same admission standards men were held to. The college was the first in the United Kingdom to accept students from any class or religion.Tuition (学费) for each student comes in at $31,000. This price does include fees for housing, food, travel expenses and insurance.University of Melbourne, Melbourne, AustraliaIt opened in 1853 and is known for its outstanding research and teaching programs. Research at the university in the 1970s led to a cochlear implant (人工耳蜗), giving more than 200,000 patients worldwide hearing.Parents of native students expect to pay $24,500 for the first term’s tuition and another $19,500 for room and board in residential housing.University of Cambridge, England, United KingdomRecords of the university reach back to 1209 when the area was an ancient Roman trading post, making it the second oldest university in the UK. Cambridge currently has 21,000 students with around 1,300 of those coming from 65 different countries.Tuition for the bachelor programs like engineering reaches $31,000.Sarah Lawrence College, New York, United StatesIt is known for a diverse student body coming from 53 different countries. The teacher/student ratio (比例) and personalized courses of study attract students from the United States and abroad.Undergraduates carrying 30 credits will pay $51,196 for tuition. The cost to attend Sarah Lawrence may seem prohibitive to many, but a degree from this honoured college can open many doors for graduates.1.When did University College London start to admit women on equal terms with men?A.In 1209.B.In1853.C.In 1878.D.In 1887.2.Which college developed a device to benefit people with hearing loss?A.University of Melbourne.B.Sarah Lawrence College.C.University of Cambridge.D.University College London.3.What do the last two colleges have in common?A.They just offer the bachelor programs.B.They feature the highest cost of board.C.They are located in the United Kingdom.D.They are favoured by international students.BJim found himself exhausted during a trip. When he came home, he went to see a doctor. “The reason I was tired, ” Jim says, “was that my kidneys (肾脏)were gone. ”Jim, 69, a former Air Force pilot, immediately started dialysis(透析) three days a week. A person of his age on dialysis usually lives only about four years. Transplants are a long-shot alternative. The National Kidney Foundation estimates that 13 people die every day while waiting for a donor with the right blood and tissue types.Jim’s wife, nephew and four family friends offered but weren’t a match. Jim was so discouraged that he was even considering not attending a reunion of some Air Force buddies(铁哥们). But his wife encouraged him to reunite with his old friends, among whom was one he hadn’t seen in 50 years: Doug Coffman. The two had met when they both were learning Vietnamese before they went overseas.Doug, then 70, felt a strong bond with his band of brothers, even though he hadn’t seen some of them in decades. Their connection went beyond the battlefield in ways most soldiers never experience.Doug had received help from his friends when he was in trouble, so he felt like it was a time that he could pay that ahead by donating a kidney to Jim. Fortunately, series of testing revealed not only that Doug’s tissue type matched Jim’s but also that he had the kidneys of a 35-year-old.The transplant was a success. “It’s pretty miraculous to be able to take an organ out of one person’s body—a living organ—put it in another person’s body, and have it work, ” Doug says. “And there’s nothing finer than knowing I’ve helped another person live a better life. ”4.From this text we know that Kidney transplant is ________.A.Expensive B.dangerous C.a matter of luck D.an unwise choice5.How old was Jim when he went overseas?A.About 17.B.About 19.C.About 22.D.About 25.6.What can we infer from Doug’s words in the last paragraph?A.Doug is happy to donate a kidney to Jim.B.Jim is having a better life than Doug.C.The kidney transplant is very successful.D.Modern medical science is very advanced.7.What is the theme of this text?A.Good luck.B.An operation.C.Paying it forward.D.Good relationship.CWhat is life? Like most great questions, this one is easy to ask but difficult to answer. The reason is simple: weknow of just one type of life and it’s challenging to do science with a sample size of one. The field of artificial life-called ALife for short — is the systematic attempt to spell out life’s fundamental principles. Many of these practitioners, so-called ALifers, think that somehow making life is the surest way to really understand what life is.So far no one has convincingly made artificial life. This track record makes ALife a ripe target for criticism, such as declarations of the field’s doubtful scientific value. Alan Smith, a complexity scientist, is tired of such complaints. Asking about “the point” of ALife might be, well, missing the point entirely, he says. “The existence of a living system is not about the use of anything.” Alan says. “Some people ask me, ‘So what’s the worth of artificial life?’ Do you ever think, ‘What is the worth of your grandmother?’”As much as many ALifers hate emphasizing their research’s applications, the attempts to create artificial life could have practical payoffs. Artificial intelligence may be considered ALife’s cousin in that researchers in both fields are enamored by a concept called open-ended evolution (演化). This is the capacity for a system to create essentially endless complexity, to be a sort of “novelty generator”. The only system known to exhibit this is Earth’s biosphere. If the field of ALife manages to reproduce life’s endless “creativity” in some virtual model, those same principles could give rise to truly inventive machines.Compared with the developments of Al, advances in ALife are harder to recognize. One reason is that ALife is a field in which the central concept — life itself — is undefined. The lack of agreement among ALifers doesn’t help either. The result is a diverse line of projects that each advance along their unique paths. For better or worse, ALife mirrors the very subject it studies. Its muddled (混乱的) progression is a striking parallel (平行线) to the evolutionary struggles that have shaped Earth biosphere.Undefined and uncontrolled, ALife drives its followers to repurpose old ideas and generated novelty. It may be, of course, that these characteristics aren’t in any way surprising or singular. They may apply universally to all acts of evolution. Ultimately ALife may be nothing special. But even this dismissal suggests something:perhaps, just like life itself throughout the universe, the rise of ALife will prove unavoidable.8.Regarding Alan Smith’s defence of ALife, the author is .A.supportive B.puzzled C.unconcerned D.doubtful9.What does the word “enamored” underlined in Paragraph 3 most probably mean?A.Shocked.B.Protected.C.Attracted.D.Challenged.10.What can we learn from this passage?A.ALife holds the key to human future.B.ALife and AI share a common feature.C.AI mirrors the developments of ALife.D.AI speeds up the process of human evolution.11.Which would be the best title for the passage?A.Life Is Undefined. Can AI Be a Way Out?B.Life Evolves. Can AI Help ALife Evolve, Too?C.Life Is Undefined. Can ALife Be Defined One Day?D.Life Evolves. Can Attempts to Create ALife Evolve, Too?DScientists and engineers are preparing for possible travel into interstellar (星际的) space, the area in between stars, in the distant future. A new report examines the possible problem of changes in language on long space trips. Two American researchers have explored one possible problem with such travel. They considered the possibility that changes in human language could develop overtime and lead to major communication problems with people on Earth.The language experts are professors Andrew McKenzie from the University of Kansas, and Jeffrey Punske of Southern Illinois University. The two recently published a paper, which considers very long trips necessary to reach interstellar space, estimated to be about 18 billion kilometers from Earth. It also examines the possibility of future colonization (殖民地的开拓) of distant stars.Languages naturally change as communities grow more isolated from each other, the researchers note in the paper. The long isolation of a community could lead to enough differences in language to make it impossible for community members back home to understand. “If you’re on this spaceship for 10 generations, new concepts and social issues will emerge, and people will create ways of talking about them,” McKenzie said in a statement. Such vocabulary would become specific to only that spaceship.“People on Earth might never know about these words, unless there’s a reason to tell them. And the further away you get, the less you’re going to talk to people back home,” McKenzie said. The researchers noted that in addition to new words being used, the language of people traveling on spaceships and living in colonies would experience many other changes. For example, the sounds of different letters would likely change overtime, affecting not only individual words, but the whole “grammatical system”, the paper states.Major changes in word and sentence structure could also create systematic language barriers overtime, the researchers said. “Given more time, new grammatical forms can completely replace current ones,” McKenzie said. 12.What is the possible result of long space travel according to the research?A.It may bring about many language barriers.B.People may suffer from mental problems.C.It may change people’s living environment.D.People could communicate more easily on Earth. 13.What does the underlined word “isolation” in paragraph 3 most probably mean?A.Connection.B.Distribution.C.Loneliness.D.Separation.14.What can we infer about the language used on spaceships from paragraph 4?A.It will form its own language system.B.It will replace the current language soon.C.It can be understood by people on Earth.D.It can be used to communicate with aliens.15.Why does the author mention McKenzie in the last paragraph?A.To present the way to create new languages.B.To explain the reason for language problems.C.To stress the inevitable trend of language changing.D.To show the importance of new grammatical systems.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)Worried about the climate? 16 . Here are some examples to get you started.•Count the birds and the beesGet closer to nature by becoming a citizen scientist. You could be counting birds in your garden, butterflies, insects and flowers, or even reptiles and hedgehogs. 17 . It’s a fun group activity, and your data can help scientists better understand the impact of human behaviour on natural habitats.• 18Media headlines can be alarming when it comes to the climate and nature crisis or ignoring the issues completely. Hosting a local discussion can allow space for reflection, debate, ideas and collaboration (合作) to take action on global issues at a local level.•Set up a library of thingsInternet shopping has made it too easy to buy new stuff at the click of a button. 19 ? First, it’ll clutter (凌乱地塞满) your house,then it’ll clutter the planet. Setting up a library of things can encourage local people to share everything from tools to instruments, cooking gadgets to toys.•Start a climate emergency centre20 . That’s why more and more climate emergency centres are popping up in derelict (废弃地) shops on high streets and in shopping centres. A climate emergency centre can be a space for events such as an exhibition on plastic waste or a workshop to learn how to make eco-cleaning products. It can also be a way to motivate more people to take action.A.Cooperate with your localsB.But where is it all going to end upC.Host a climate and nature discussionD.But how have we consumed the thingsE.The climate and nature crisis isn’t going awayF.There are lots of citizen science projects to take part inG.Small local actions with neighbors, local businesses and politicians can make a difference。
