Betty Friedan is often called “the mother of the modern women’s liberation(解放) movement” Her famous book The Feminine Mystique changed America. Some people say it changed the world. It has been called one of the most influential nonfiction books of the 20th century. Betty Friedan was born in 1921 in Peoria, Illinois. She attended Smith College in Northampton, Massachusetts, one of the country’s best colleges for women. She finished her studies in psychology(心理学) in 1942.
In 1957, Friedan started a research that was to have far- reaching(深远的) results. Most women in her class did not work outside their homes after graduation. Friedan thought women could give a lot to society if they had another identity besides being housewives. She talked to other women across the country, met with experts about the questions and answers and combined this research with surveys and examples from her own life. The result was her book, The Feminine Mystique, published in 1963. The book attacked the popular idea of the time that women could only find satisfaction through being married, having children and taking care of their home. Friedan believed that women wanted more from life than just to please their husbands and children. The book said women suffered from feelings of lack of worth. Friedan said this was because women depended on their husbands for economic(经济的), emotional and intellectual support.
The Feminine Mystique was a huge success, which has been sold more than three million of copies and reprinted in a number of other languages. The book helped change the lives of women in America. More women began working outside the home and more women began
studying traditionally male subjects like law, medicine and engineering.
4．What’s The Feminine Mystique mainly about ?
A．women’s equal rights B．women’s studi es
C．women’s political position D．women s marriage
5．According to Friedan, which of the following statement is True?
A．Women only wanted to please their husbands and children.
B．Women can’t find satisfaction in other ways besides family.
C．Most women in her class worked outside their homes after graduation.
D．Women relied on their husbands for economic, emotional and intellectual support. 6．What is the main reason for the book 's popularity?
A．It influenced women’s life greatly.
B．It was written by a famous woman.
C．It has been prepared for many years.
D．It was a result of long research in society.

A．Education B．Story C．People D．Life
May 14 marks the beginning of National Smile Month in the UK. The campaign is organized by the Oral Health Foundation to promote(普及) dental(牙齿的) health. The Foundation hopes that a month of smiling across the nation will make people think about the importance of brushing their teeth regularly, cutting down on sugary foods, and making regular appointments with the dentist.
The British, in fact, have a reputation for bad teeth. The Internet's Urban Dictionary has an entry(条目)for “ British Smile”, defining it as “Any smile with bad teeth”. On the other side of the Atlan tic, however, the “Hollywood Smile” gets its name because American movie stars are so proud to show off their sparkling beautiful teeth.
But what about smiling in the UK in general? Do the British smile a lot, or do they look sad all the time? It's said t hat the British practice the “stiff upper lip”, meaning that they don't often show their emotions; they neither smile nor cry. But this is false: A British person likes to smile as much as anyone else.
As far as smiling in Britain is concerned just like everywhere else, it all depends on the situation. For example, you wouldn't expect anyone to smile at a funeral(葬礼). But if you were
at a party of any kind, you'd find everyone smiling from ear to ear. However, smiling is sometimes not allowed under some circumstances(情形). For instance, since 2005 Britain hasn’t allowed smiling in passport photographs. At other times, for example at work and school, you simply smile when it's natural to smile.
So the British are no more and no less likely to smile than anyone else. But smiling is good for you, no doubt about it, even if you do have a few bad teeth. And smiling is good for those around you too. This alone makes National Smile Month a great idea. As the essayist William Hazlitt wrote, “A gentle smile, a kind w ord, a good-natured smile can work wonders and accomplish miracles”.
8．Why is National Smile Month held in the UK?
A．To promote the health benefits of smiling.
B．To build a more friendly society through smiling.
C．To attract people's attention to dental health.
D．To teach people how to protect their teeth.
9．What does the underlined word “sparkling” refer to?
A．aging B．loose
C．smelly D．shining
10．What can we learn from the article about smiling in the UK?
A．People can’t smile when taking passport photos.
B．British people are less likely to smile than others.
C．People are encouraged to smile all the time at work.
D．British people often hide their true emotions with a smile.
11．What does the author think of National Smile Month?
A．It lasts too long. B．It is a wonderful event.
C．It fails to achieve its purpose. D．It should be promoted around the world.
More than half of the food produced in Canada goes to waste. A shocking new study has shown that the level of food waste is far worse than previously thought, at 58%. Of that, about 85% of food waste is due to food processors. This differs from earlier studies, which criticized families for driving food waste and said they were responsible for 51% of food waste.
The study was carried out by Martin Hooch, the leading expert on food waste and the author of several previous studies on the subject. Reflecting on the study’s findings, Hooch said,
“It means stopping criticizing consumers. Sure, consumers are part of the problem, but they’re not the problem.”
In the past, Hooch didn't master good data, particularly from the private factories, but relied on numbers collected by the food industry for purposes other than tracking(追踪) waste. This time, however, Hooch worked directly with companies at all stages along the food production chain and interviewed over 700 experts in the industry. Clearly he found it hard to believe what he was seeing.
This is what they found: Food processing causes 34% of food waste. This is followed by production, which causes 24%. Next is manufacturing at 13%, then hotels and restaurants at 9%. Families cause only 14%, and market sales 6%. This should be a serious wake-up call for Canadians who would do well to examine their own food supply chains. Food waste is costly, not only in terms of dollars wasted, but also in resources like land, water, and so on. To be using these resources and wasting the product is totally irresponsible and unnecessary.
To make matters worse, when food is thrown into rubbish cans, it produces methane, a greenhouse gas 30 times more powerful than carbon dioxide (CO2). At Canada’s rate of food waste, that's like adding 12 million cars to the road. It seems that the food industry needs redesigning. Therefore, let’s hope the government takes action.
12．What did earlier studies say about food waste in Canada?
A．Food waste was better than expected.
B．Food went bad when it was processed.
C．Most of the food was wasted on purpose.
D．Families were to blame for food waste.
13．How did Hooch do his study on food waste this time?
A．By studying data from the industry.
B．By tracking the whole production chain.
C．By collecting advice from experts worldwide.
D．By drawing a conclusion from the previous studies.
14．Why does food waste have an effect on the environment?
A．Because it is harmful to the trees.
B．Because it pollutes the soil around it.
C．Because it gives off unpleasant smells.
D．Because it produces more greenhouse gas.
15．What is the main idea of the text?
A．Canadians don’t like to save food for future.
B．More than half of the food is wasted in Canada.
C．Families are mainly responsible for food waste.
D．The food industry is better redesigned in Canada.
二、七选五
How to Continue a Conversation in English?
It is not always easy to keep a conversation going in English. 16．Or maybe you are afraid that your pronunciation is not good. Here are some tips for you to continue a conversation in English.
Listen and follow up
17．Listen to the other person carefully, so that you can ask a follow-up question. For example, let’s say the other person tells you, “I just got back from a trip to California.”You can follow up with a question using Who, What, Where, When, Why, or How.
● W here did you go in California?
● What was your favorite place there?
● How was the food there?
18．
If you want to keep a conversation going, it’s a good idea to ask questions that cannot be answered with a simple ‘yes’ or ‘no.’ If the other person asks you a ‘yes’ or ‘no’ question, try to give a longer answer to help keep the conversation going. For example, a friend might ask, “Hey, have you seen the new Star Wars movie?” You could just answer, “No, I haven’t.” Or, you could say more. 19．
Be brave and practice often
20．If your pronunciation is a little different, the other person will still understand your message if you try speaking slowly and clearly. When you are traveling in an English-speaking country and have some free time, be brave and speak in English with someone who does not look too busy. You may make a new friend.
A．Try to ask different questions
B．Avoid simple ‘yes’ or ‘no’ questions
C．Do not worry about your pronunciation.
D．You might not be sure about what to say.
E.First, remember the importance of listening.
F.Sometimes, you get nervous, so your conversation ends quickly
G.You could answer: “No, but I plan to see it soon. How about you?”

做好细节理解题的几点建议：
细节理解题属直接解答性问题，是阅读理解题中最简单的一种，多数属中低难度的题。

但高考所占的比例大，应特别引起注意。

事实和细节题的命题特点是：对文章或某一段落中的一些特定细节或文章重要事实的理解，一般包括直接理解题和语义转化题。

直接理解题能在原文直接找到答案，而语义转化题则需要将题目信息与原文信息加工或整理后才能得出结论。

做细节理解题具体方法与步骤如下：
①略读材料，大概了解原文，掌握中心或主旨；
②按文章的体裁，作者写作的组织模式及有关的信息词。

如for example, first, second…等预测应该到何处寻找自己所需要的事实；
③将自己精力放在寻找你所需要的细节上。

快速通篇跳读，全文扫视，找到细节出处，待找到含细节句子时，放慢速度，仔细核对比较内容，直至找到答案。

如第21小题根据文中提到的优惠价格可知Legoland in Windor，save up to ₤45.90 on a one-day ticket；Drayton Manor Theme Park，save ₤43；Alton Towers in Staffordshire fo r ₤43.80 off；Save ₤16 off the price for a family trip to The Making of Harry Potter。
