高考英语阅读七选五(附答案)(参考)_1

高考英语阅读七选五(附答案)一、考点精要【授之以渔】近年来，高考的阅读明白增加了七选五题型，试题模式为：给出一篇缺少5个句子的文章，对应有七个选项，要求同学们依照文章结构、内容，选出正确的句子，填入相应的空白处。

该题型要紧考查考生对文章的整体内容和结构以及上下文逻辑意义的明白和掌握。

其命题体现了《新课标》“用英语猎取、处理和运用信息的能力；逐步猎取用英语思维的能力。

”的阅读学习和教学理念。

《考试讲明》对该题型命题目的的表述“要紧考查考生对文章的整体内容和结构以及上下文逻辑意义的明白和掌握。

”新题型七选五事实上跟传统题型完形填空有相似之处，完形填空空出的是词，而七选五空出的是句子，然而他们的考察方式基本上一样的，只要考生挑选的答案可以使行文连贯，符合英文的语法以及适应表达就行，所以，这两类题型在做题办法上有共通之处。

二、解题技巧【名师坐堂】从该题型给出的选项中我们能够发觉一些特点：该题型选项大致可分为主旨概括句（文章整体内容）、过渡性句子（文章结构）和注释性句子（上下文逻辑意义）三类。

另外两个多余的干扰项也能够经过这三个特点来排除，例如主旨概括句要么过于宽泛要么以偏概全或偏离主题，过渡性句子别能反映文章的行文结构，注释性句子与上文脱节等。

依照这些，我们总结一些对于七选五的做题办法供大伙儿参考。

1.先看选项。

跟完形填空别一样，七选五的答案选项较少，同时给出的基本上句子，所以，我们能够经过句子的完整性或者句子后面的标点符号来推断该句在文章中的位置。

另外，经过阅读选项，有也许找出跟其他选项表达彻底别接受思的句子，如此的话我们就能够直截了当将该选项排除。

2.通读全文对文章举行快速扫瞄，寻觅主题句，抓住文章结构及文章的写作内容。

在阅读过程中，要注意文章的开始与结束段降，尤其是文章的首段及末段末句，因为“开门见山”与“结尾总结”的写作方式为常见的写作方式，首段的末句普通是全文的主题所在，讲明本文将探讨哪些内容，并简要指出文章的写作思路，有时甚至会以提纲的形式举行呈现。

Discover the language by yourself, like a child growing up.35Do not worry about what you cannot remember, or can't yet understand. It does not matter. You are learning and improving. The language will gradually become clearer in your brain, but this will happen on a schedule that you can't control. So just make sure you spend enough time with the language. That is the greatest guarantee of success.Relax and make sure of the time spent with the language.Focus on words and phrases.Read what you are listening to.Chat with others in the language on the Internet.If you do want to learn the language, take control.The more time you spend with the language, the faster you will learn. There are hundreds of easy conversations for you to practice speaking. 答案：FCBEA7.Couch potatoes live an inactive lifestyle. ___16___According to a recent study, spending more than two hours watching TV every day is likely to increase the risk of heart disease.

A year with a February 29 might be good news if you are paid by the day or the week. But it might be bad news if you were born on a February 29.____36____. American English has a term for the unusual situation. February 29 is called a leap day. And the entire 12-month period with a February 29 in it is called a leap year. This year, 2020, is such a year.In a leap year, the dates jump over one day of the week. Let me explain. In 2017, the last day of the year, December 31, fell on a Sunday. In 2018, it fell on a Monday. In 2019, it fell on a Tuesday. But in 2020, December 31 will fall on a Thursday.___37___.The reason for a leap day or a leap year is because our calendar does not follow the Earth's orbit around the sun exactly.___38___. So every fouryears, we put all that time together into an extra day —or, what is officially called an intercalary(闰) day."Leap" is also an important word for two other common American expressions.___39___. If you want someone to investigate a situation completely before taking action, you might say, "Look before you leap." The other expression is a phrase of hope. Urging someone to "take a leap of faith" means inviting the person to take action, even if not everything about a situation is known. Interestingly, both phrases are completely reasonable to say to someone who is about to get married. On that note, some people choose to marry on February 29 because it is an unusual date.___40___. Leap years were believed to be difficult, and leap days unlucky and a bad time to begin anything new. Whatever you think about them, the change in the calendar will be gone soon enough. Then we can return to normal, and leap over February 29 as usual.A. One is a kind of warning.B. That's why we called it a Leap YearC. It just leaped right over Wednesday.D. Each year, we have a little time left over.E. You have to wait three years in between birthdays!F. As a verb, the word "leap" means to jump, or to move quickly.G. Some ancient peoples would likely tell couples not to do it, however. 【答案】E C D A G9.Any exercise is good exercise, but when it comes to losing weight, it's hard to beat running. After all, running is one of the most efficient ways to burn calories and get fit without having to restrict your diet.31 If you're not a runner yet but interested in losing weight, here are four reasons running can be the best exercise for weight loss.32 When comparing running with walking the same distance, studies find that running will lead to greater weight loss, most likely because your resting energy expenditure stays elevated(高的) after you run. In a long-term comparison study of runners and walkers, calories burned through running led to 90% more weight loss than calories burned through walking.Running is time-efficient. Even if the myth that running a mile and walking a mile burn the same number of calories were true, running is a considerably faster way to burn those calories. 33Running is convenient. Though many of us have accumulated a vast arsenal(武器，装备) of GPS gadgets and tech tees over the years, little is actually required to go running. You can do it alone. You can do it almost anywhere. 34 For this reason alone, running is the best workout for weight loss because it's cheap and accessible, and there are fewer barriers to maintaining a routine, even while traveling.Twowords: runner's high. 35 Fortunately, studies support what many runners have experienced on an anecdotal level—running can actually get you high. Scientists have found links between moderate to intense exercise and morphine-like brain chemicals, which explains the occasional flood of thrill that rushes over you during a hardrun. That happy sensation you had after your last race makes you want to go for another run, right?A. Cultivate the good habit of running.B. Running works even when you're at rest.C. You will never stick to a habit if you don't like it.D. The first rule of exercising for weight loss is that if you don't enjoy it, you won't stick with it.E. You don't need any equipment beyond a pair of running shoes.F. If you're already a runner, keep on.G. Most people can run two or three times as far as they can walk in a given amount of time.答案：FBGED10Friendly people are welcoming. When you are friendly, you make other people feel good about themselves and you also feel more confident about yourself. 31 Being friendly doesn't have to mean changing who you are but doing little things to make others comfortable.___32__ If you are not friendly, you might feel embarrassed when you first try to be more welcoming with others. One way to learn to be friendly is to think of an outgoing person and copy his/her postures(姿势),words and behavior.Be kind to strangers. An easy way to be friendly is to offer a smile to people you might normally ignore. Every day there are opportunities to be friendly with strangers. ___33___.Try to accept others.___34__If someone new tries to chat with you, make an effort to contribute to the conversation instead of giving one-wordanswers. In a group, look out for one who doesn't seem to know anyone and try to accept him/her into the group.Stay in touch. Sometimes we neglect(忽视) to be friendly with those we know the best--- our close friends and family. ___35__Therefore, you can send a warm email too let your mother know that you are thinking about her.A. Observe friendliness in others.B. Smile and remember everyone's name.C. They may want to hang out, but be too shy to ask.D. So friendliness is a win-win no matter how you look at it.E. Don't pass up the chance to be warm and make others comfortable.F. Actually, offering friendliness and warmth to them is also very important.G. Making new people you meet feel accepted forms a large part of being friendly.答案：DAEGF。

As weget to know people, 72 .

A friendly lookwith a wrong facial expression can turn into an unfriendly stare，and nervousness may be wrongly understood as unfriendliness．，but it is usual for close friends to Some relationships are a result of argument and discussionhave the same ideas and beliefs，the same opinion and interests. The more closely involved people become．the more they depend on each other. And 74 .

Generally speaking, hot-air balloons are quite safe.Before examining the safety of hot-air balloons, it may help to understand how they work.

We may have children, aging parents, jobs, partners, and community," says Barbara Hannah Grufferman, author of The Best of Everything After 50.If you don't have a regular exercise plan, don't worry! There are simple things you can do to get more exercise, no gym membership or hours of commitment required.Walk-and make it countEven if you're not in shape, you can likely walk. And that's good news, because many studies illustrate that it's one of the best things we can do for our bodies. Grufferman suggests getting a pedometer(计步器），whether it's a simple mechanical one, or a FitBit or Jawbone.________ And then, start walking faster and longer-most experts recommend walking 10,000 steps a day. Reduce sittingYou've probably heard," sitting is the new smoking." Well, this means that loads of research has shown that sitting for extended periods of time can have serious health consequences that range from obesity to diabetes and more. ________ It's also essential to take breaks from your sit-down desk.Run if you canIt might seem out of reach, but if you can add some light running into your daily walk, you'll be better for it.

When first introduced in Japan in 1999, emojis were limited to 176 simple designs. Now there are more than 3,000 emojis. Due to their popularity, the Oxford Dictionaries Word of the Year in 2015 was a pictograph instead of a traditional word.In today's world, emojis have become more and more popular.________ People like them because they add emotional meanings, and are quick and easy to use. With a smiling or sad face added to a message or post, your reader can "see" your facial expression while reading your words.________ For instance, if your friend is moving across the country, you may just send them a string of crying faces to express your sadness over your separation.________ A Shakespeare series for young readers has taken William Shakespeare's popular plays and replaced some words with textspeak and emojis. The intention of these adaptations is to make the classics more accessible to young readers. Some people, however, believe that these new versions have taken away the heart and soul of Shakespeare's plays.As we can see, emojis have a tendency to pop up all over the place. Users of emojis say that they facilitate the way we communicate and express ourselves. But this makes others, especially educators, worry that we are losing the ability to communicate properly using the written word, or even the spoken word. After all, how many of us today would rather send a message packed with emojis than make a telephone call?________ On that day, emojis will have become a real pictorial "language".

It's also hugely important for the health of the heart and lungs. ________ Besides, more and more research is showing that exercise doesn't just help the body, but also the brain, improving thinking, test scores, and school grades.________ They were also very different between boys and girls. In the US, for example, 64% of boys were not active enough, compared to 80% of girls. South Korea was the country with the lowest activity levels — 91% of the boys and 97% of the girls didn't get enough exercise.One big reason for the lack of activity in today's teens is technology, such as smartphones, computers and TVs. Many teens find it hard to pull themselves away from them. ________So the WHO warns that teens need to do less playing in the digital world, and more playing in the real world. Teens should take part in sports, whether on official teams or just playing around on the playground. ________ For many people, walking or biking to school is one way to make that happen. It's very important for young people to build these habits now, because the positive effects of those habits can carry through into adult life.A. Exercise benefits you academically.B. Activity levels vary from country to country.C. The WHO has spared no effort in the research.D. Such inactivity can severely affect their growth.E. Exercise can also be built into a normal day's activities.F. Regular activity can help them control their weight, too.G. The WHO has been studying teen activity levels since 2001.。

Ideas about social class –whether a person is “working - class”or “middle - class”–are one area in which changes have been extremely slow.In the past, the working-class tended to be paid less than middle-class people. The typical working man would collect his wages on Friday evening and then, it was widely believed, having given his wife her "housekeeping", would go out and squander the rest on beer and betting. The old style of what a middle-class man did with his money was perhaps nearer the truth. He was-and still is - inclined to take a longer-term view. Not only did he regard buying a house as a most important thing, but he also considered the education of his children as extremely important. 【小题2】. Only in very few cases did workers have the opportunity （or the education and training）to make such long-term plans.【小题3】 . In a large number of cases factory workers earn as much as their middle –class supervisors (管理者). Social security and laws to improve century, have made it less necessary than before to worry about "tomorrow". Working-class people seem slowly to be losing the feeling of inferiority(自卑感). In fact there has been a growing tendency in the past few years for the middle-classes to feel slightly ashamed of their position. 【小题4】 .They generally tend to share very similar tastes in music andclothes, they spend their money in having a good time, and save for holidays or longer-term plans when necessary.

Remember, food always looks best before being eaten.◆‘I’m so adventurous’styleRock climbing, hiking, surfing, or skiing? 【小题4】 Just let the natural settings make people go “wow”.

高考英语阅读七选五(附答案)

一、考点精要【授之以渔】近年来，高考的阅读理解增加了七选五题型，试题模式为：给出一篇缺少5个句子的文章，对应有七个选项，要求同学们根据文章结构、内容，选出正确的句子，填入相应的空白处。

该题型主要考查考生对文章的整体内容和结构以及上下文逻辑意义的理解和掌握。

其命题体现了《新课标》“用英语获取、处理和运用信息的能力；逐步获取用英语思维的能力。

”的阅读学习和教学理念。

《考试说明》对该题型命题目的的表述“主要考查考生对文章的整体内容和结构以及上下文逻辑意义的理解和掌握。

”新题型七选五其实跟传统题型完形填空有相似之处，完形填空空出的是词，而七选五空出的是句子，但是他们的考察方式都是一样的，只要考生选择的答案能够使行文连贯，符合英文的语法以及习惯表达就行，因此，这两类题型在做题方法上有共通之处。

二、解题技巧【名师坐堂】从该题型给出的选项中我们可以发现一些特点：该题型选项大致可分为主旨概括句（文章整体内容）、过渡性句子（文章结构）和注释性句子（上下文逻辑意义）三类。

另外两个多余的干扰项也可以通过这三个特点来排除，例如主旨概括句要么过于宽泛要么以偏概全或偏离主题，过渡性句子不能反映文章的行文结构，注释性句子与上文脱节等。

根据这些，我们总结一些关于七选五的做题方法供大家参考。

1.先看选项。

跟完形填空不一样，七选五的答案选项较少，并且给出的都是句子，因此，我们可以通过句子的完整性或者句子后面的标点符号来判断该句在文章中的位置。

另外，通过阅读选项，有可能找出跟其他选项表达完全不同意思的句子，这样的话我们就可以直接将该选项排除。

2.通读全文对文章进行快速浏览，寻找主题句，抓住文章结构及文章的写作内容。

在阅读过程中，要注意文章的开始与结束段落，尤其是文章的首段及末段末句，因为“开门见山”与“结尾总结”的写作方式为常见的写作方式，首段的末句一般是全文的主题所在，说明本文将探讨哪些内容，并简要指出文章的写作思路，有时甚至会以提纲的形式进行呈现。

2017年高考英语阅读专练（七选五）1. Brain TransplantsResearch on the human brain has been attracting more and more scientists in recent years. 1 If we compare a human brain to a hard disc, what the scientists are doing is to make better use of the hard disc.The idea that a human brain could be transplanted may come from Frankenstein. In 1999, an experiment turned a bear into a dolphin. 2 They were made of the memory area in the dolphin’s brain containing information about swimming. T hey had a series of useful information, which was saved into a button-sized chip (芯片). Later the information was transplanted into the action memory area in the bear’s brain. 3 It proved to be a highly successful experiment and a bear was turned into a dolphin.Recently, another memory transplant was performed at the Motor Nerve Research Institute of the University of California. The experiment had an entire transplant of the memory area. 4 The transplant was performed from a dog named Genius to a dog named Idiot. Genius could follow up to 100 gestures and orders made by its master. It was a real genius in memorizing. However, Idiot had no contact with people since its birth. It became an animal with nothing in its brain, without any memory.5 When the two dogs woke up, Idiot had grasped all the abilities Genius possessed; it was good at memorizing and sensible. It could follow every gesture and any command given by its master. But Genius gave no response to its master, and did not recognize him at all.A. The experiment was a complete success.B. It included actions, moods, logic, words, images, etc.C. Then it was released by means of electric power.D. Different images have different meanings in the memory area.E. Using the most advanced technology, detailed images were produced.F. Discoveries show that messages are carried by the central nervous system in the brain.G. One of the latest topics is how to change the human brain or combine it with the computer.2. W. Lloyd Jerome’s Dental SurgeryIf you walk into W.Lloyd Jerome’s dental surgery in Glasgow, You’ll see bright paintings and a fashionable blue couch which patients sit on while he checks their teeth. Jerome says, “That’s because they’re frightened.”I don’t wear a white coat. I find that’s one of the things that people associate with pain. In fact, my philosophy is that dental treatment should take place in an atmosphere of relaxation, interest and, above all, enjoyment”, which is all highly shocking for anyone who associates dental treatment with pain, or at the very least, formal, clinical visits. He says, “If people are relaxed, entertained and correctly“Virtual-reality headsets are one of his new relaxation techniques. ___2____ The headsets are used for the first check-up, where the patient sits on the blue couch and watches ar film while I look at their teeth. Then the headset switches to a special camera, to giv e the patient a visual tour around their mouth.”“Another key point is that the surgery smells more like a perfume shop than a dentist’s. Today there is the smell of orange. ‘When people walk in, I want them to realize with all their senses that it’s not like going to dentist’s. Smell is very important. ____3_____”Known as Glasgow’s most fashionable dentist, Jerome is keen to point out thatinstrument which sprays warm water on the teeth to clean them, rather than scraping them. “It feels a bit strange, but as long as people are relaxed, it’s not___5___ “One of the things I found out there was that when you make it easier for the patient, you make it easier for yourse lf.” He sees his patient-centredattitude as the start of a gradual movement towards less formality in the conservative British dentistry profession. At that moment, a patient arrives. Jerome rushes over, offers him a cup of tea, asks him what video he’d l ike to watch and leads him gently towards the chair.A. Five years ago, Jerome went to the United States to do research.C. The relaxation techniques are important but the quality of the treatment is theE. Now they lF. That dental smell of surgical spirit can get the heart racing in minutes if you’reG. Fifty percent of the population only go to the dentist when they’re in pain.3. School PhobiaSchool phobia is a type of illness which causes the students, typically between the ages of 8-13, to be afraid to go to school. Symptoms include stomachaches, tiredness, shaking, a racing heart and frequent trips to the toilet.__1__ Most commonly it is the result of separation anxiety, but it can also be caused by different kinds of stress. A child who has recently moved, suffered a loss, or gone through a divorce may develop school phobia, and phobias can also develop in response to an unrecognized learning disability, and poor self-image.__2__ He or she may become physically ill when ordered to school, or pretend to be sick to avoid going. When the child arrives at school, he or she may run away, or develop behavioral problems in class. When school is discussed, the child can become impatient, upset or angry.Many techniques can be used to manage school phobia. But research suggests that much more effective treatment is required for school phobia to prevent problems developing in later life. Children with this condition usually benefit from seeing a psychologist or doctor. __3__ As soon as a school phobia is identified, parentsshould take action too. Like other phobias, school phobia gets worse if it is left untreated, and it can prevent the child from succeeding in school. __4__ If bullying is a cause, for example, the bullying situation should be solved. A teacher can meet the child at the door and take him or her to class, and provide support so that the child feels a friendly adult is always available.Changes at home can include supportive language from parents, along with support like assistance with homework. If a child lacks confidence, parents may encourage the child to take up new hobbies. __5__ Parents might also talk to their children about their own fears of school and how they got over them, and their own enjoyment of school and school-like activities.A. It will help children to feel good about themselves.B. But a child with phobia refuses to accept adults’ support.C. A child with school phobia usually refuses to go to school.D. Adjustments can be made at home and in the classroom to help.E. This common phobia is associated with a wide variety of causes.F. The most effective treatment is to help the child have a sense of success.G. And the assistance can help parents and school officials support the child.4. The Pleasing Sound of a RainstickA rainstick is a long tube that is carved out, with small sticks or other materials pushed inside so that it has a somewhat smooth surface on the outside, but small barriers inside. These can be in a lined pattern, for a specific sound, or placed at random for a more varied effect. It is then filled with a variety of different things, like small stones, or beads(珠子), or even rice, and the ends are capped to provide a seal. __1_____The origins of rainsticks are not really known and so the stories are quite varied. Some people say that the ancient peoples of Chile created rainsticks from dried cactus(仙人掌), with the sharp points taken off, pushed back inside and then filled with small stones. __2_____ The Deaguita Indians survive even today, and they arestill using them in many of their rain ceremonies. They also make them as musical instruments.___3____ Turning the stick over quickly will produce a higher sound, while turning it slowly will produce a deeper effect. How long the effect lasts depends on how long the instrument is. The tube also affects the quality of the rain sound as well. If you make them from some kind of absorbent material, like cactus or bamboo, you will hear it better than if you were to make it from cardboard tubing.A rainstick can be made from almost any kind of material and the types of things that you can use as fillings can be even more varied. __4____ Usually, these school projects are made using a cardboard tube, like the center from a roll of toilet paper or a paper towel tube. Tooth picks are then inserted, with the exposed ends cut off and glued in place. ___5____A. You can even make your own rainsticks, and they are often part of school projectswhere they are used to help children learn the history of Indian peoples. B. When turned upside down, these materials fall down through the tube, bouncingoff of the barriers to produce a calming rain-like sound.C. These were then capped with pieces of wood on the ends and used in ceremoniesto bring rain to their crops.D. One end is capped off with poster board and filled with rice or beans, and thenthe other end is sealed.E. You can get different rain sounds, depending on how fast you turn the rainstickitself.F. This rainstick can never be opened according to the scared writings of theancients.G. They can be three feet or longer depending on what the tube itself is made from.5.

You are a young adult now!With more responsibility, you will find more freedom to make your own choices.This is a time to be well informed about making choices.

There are some people who will be with you throughout life’s journey. There will be some people with whom you part and go separate ways. Leaving school can be hard.

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. 1For 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 resemb led 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.7. Public Speaking and Critical ThinkingWhat is critical thinking? To a certain degree, it’s a matter of logic—of being able to spot weakness 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 great 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 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 reorganizedideas.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.8. ShopaholismThe word addiction usually makes you think of alcohol or drugs. 1 Some people are compulsive shoppers. Others find it impossible to pull themselves away from their work. Still others spend countless hours watching TV or playing computer games.2 Many people enjoy going to malls or stores more and more every day, but it’s more than a common hobby for some of them. They have turned into shopaholics. They are people who simply enjoy shopping and walking around spending money without being able to stop doing it. They are hooked on shopping and usually buy things that they don’t need. Even though they don’t have enough money, they buy everything they want.The question is: why do they have this addiction? There isn’t a specific answer. Some people go shopping when they are sad, worried, upset or lonely and they want to feel better. They use this activity as a way to forget their problems. Shopaholics say that they feel more important and better after they buy something. 3 Shopaholism seems to be a harmless addiction, but it can bring out problems. Some of them can be psychological. If this is the case, people addicted to shopping should go to a support group to help them break this habit. However, the process,like for most addictions, is long, and they suffer a lot. 4 They just think about satisf ying their feelings, so they spend money they don’t have.5A. Once you are addicted to alcohol or drugs, it is difficult to get rid of.B. Over the years, shopping has become a very common activity.C. They also tend to have this addiction when they feel guilty.D. However in modern-day society we are seeing some new kinds of addictions.E. People addicted to computer games consider the games as great ways to amuse themselves.F. They get deep in debt, and they can even go bankrupt and get sent to prison.G. It can also cause financial problems.9. FlavoringMost drinks stating that they are fruit-flavored (水果味道的) contain no fruit at all, while most of the rest contain only a small quantity of fruit, according to a study carried by the British Food Commission.“Shoppers need to check the labels (标签)before buying drinks, though sometimes the actual content can be non-existent,”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.”Flavorings are focused on the flavors of natural food products such as fruits, meats and vegetables, or creating flavor for food products that do not have the desired flavors. Researchers analyzed the contents of 28 strawberry-flavored products sold in stores. 2 Of the 11 products that did contain strawberries, five of them contained less than one percent real fruit. In addition, each juice box contained nearly eight teaspoons of sugar.3 Let’s take jam as an example. Some strawberry-flavored jam was labeledas 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.1. GECBA2. BDFCA3. ECGDA4. BCEAD5. CBDAF6. DBEGC7. DEAFG8. DBCGF9. DCBGF。

高三七选五阅读练习AJames Cameron was born in a small town in Canada on August 16, 1954. At 15 he discovered what he wanted to do with his life. 1. The movie was Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey.Cameron set his hope high. 2. But he didn't know anything about cinema. What's more, he lived far away from Hollywood, the place for him to realize his dreams.3. His father told him they would be moving to California and living only a few miles from Hollwood. At that time, he had a great desire to attend film school, but his family couldn't afford it. So he went to study physics at Fullerton College.Before long Cameron dropped out of college and began earning his living as a truck driver. But he still hadn't given up his dream of becoming a movie maker. His first professional film job was an art director in 1980, and in 1984 he wrote and directed The Terminator. 4. After it came a series of successful science fiction action films.Cameron now could do whatever he wanted. He had several projects in mind, including Titanic. 5. But it ended up earning almost $2 billion. After Titanic, Cameron started making Avatar in 2005. It took his team two years just to do the technical research, but the movie has become another huge success.A. It was a huge success.B. He wanted to make movies.C. Cameron had to face the facts.D. This movie cost $200 million to make.E. However, Cameron got a lucky break in 1971.F. It happened one night after he saw a movie.G. They used high technology to get the effects they wanted.BWhat is a big dream? 6. Or, is a big dream something that provides only entertainment? Children dream big dreams, but there are three barriers to realizing dreams. They often kill them before they ever have a chance to grow.The selfImmediately following the birth of a big dream, a negative self-talk takes over and gives all the reasons why it cannot happen. This inside voice is the ego(自我). It's there for protecting and should be listened to.7. Most people are influenced by the inside voice. That's why onlya handful of people make their dream come true.8.Family and friends are a lot like the ego. They want to protect those they love, so they will often list all the reasons why the big dreams won't come true. Sometimes, family and friends destroy dreams of those they love most, out of their own fear of being left behind.The worldIf one gets past the first two barriers, one has to face the world.9. In the past, big dreamers were locked up and sometimes even killed when they were shown to the world. Fortunately, in most of the world today, big dreamers just get laughed at.The way to realize a big dream is with confidence and action. When children have confidence and then take action, they will be ready to acceptany failure. The truth is that every great dreamer whose dreams have never seen the light of success knows failure well. 10.A. Family and friendsB. How big dreams dieC. Does a big dream show one's future?D. They simply fail until they succeed.E. It is the last and the most terrible barrier.F. Sometimes it is right, but more often it is wrong.G. And their big dream is to be a rock star or a famous artist.CHealthy habits are important to all of us.

Nothingcan hurt confidence more than being told that you aren't doing well.22. , so good public speaking training should develop those instead of telling you what you shouldn't do.23.If you find a public speaking course that looks as though it's going to give you lots of dos and don'ts, walk away! Your brain is so full of what you're going to be talking about. 24. . As far as we're concerned, there are basically no hard and fast rules about public speaking. Your audience can be your friends.You are a special person not a cloneMost importantly, good public speaking training should treat you as a special one, with your own personal habits. 25. .

So trying to force a whole set of rules into it will just make thingsworseFMost of us don't like to think too much about rubbish. 26. . However, household waste is a major contributor to our planet's wasteproblem. Like it or not, it needs to be managed if we are to have a brighter green future.When it comes to being responsible for our own rubbish, the best way to approach it is by following the three golden rules of waste management, or the "3 Rs"—Reduce, Reuse and Recycle."The order is important. 27. ," says Eugene Tay, Director of Green Future Solutions in Singapore, "Recycling still affects the environment and should be done last after reduce and reuse."But, when our efforts to reduce and reuse still result in an overflowing rubbish bin, the advantages of recycling cannot be ignored. "28. ," says Amy Ho, Managing Director of World Wide Fund For Nature in Singapore, "The damage to our environment could then be slowed down as a result."In fact, by recycling just one plastic bottle, you are saving not just the material to make a new one, but you also stop it from getting thrown into a landfill(垃圾掩埋场) for up to 700 years—and that's before it even starts to rot, 29. .Recycling is so important that we really have no excuse not to do the simplest of household tasks that will make a difference."30. ," says Ho, "Starting with recycling grey water for gardening purposes, to recycling materials such as glass, paper and iron—it all reduces the use of raw materials."A. We put it in the bin and don't think too far beyond thatB. The collective action of individuals can make a significant effectC. It's important for every household to make good use of grey waterD. Waste reduction and reuse is usually the best way to decrease wasteE. The three rules of waste management should be followed by everyhouseholdF. Recycling reduces the use of raw materials and so protects ournatural resourcesG. Recycling just 10% plastic bottles would keep 90 million kilogramsof plastic out of landfillsG31. Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing or whistle when you are happy.However, they sing most of the time for a very different reason.32. Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy.Do you know what a "territory" is? A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male, claims(声称) as its own. 33. No other families of the same species are welcome. Your 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. 34. Birds sing loudest in the spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs. You can see that birds have a language all their own. 35.A. Only he and his family are welcome there.B. Most of it has to do with attracting mates and setting up territories.C. Have you ever wondered when birds sing?D. Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of theirterritory.E. Have you ever wondered why birds sing?F. Most of the language is widely used.G. This screaming is what we call a bird's song, and it is usually enoughto keep an outsider away.HMake the Most Out of Your College ExperienceCollege is the turning point in your lives where you grow from children to adults.

Running is a very popular sport. Millions of people run because they enjoy it or want to be in good physical shape. A runner does not need special skills or equipment. 1
Daily running improves a person's physical condition. It helps oxygen circulate(循环) through your body and makes your heart and leg muscles stronger. 2 What's more, running helps you control your weight because when you run, you burn up the fat in your body. Many runners like taking part in long distance races like marathons (马拉松).3 They are held in many cities all over the world. For a good runner, taking part in a famous marathon is an honour of a running career.
There are no official world records in marathon races because courses are different all over the world. 4 However, sometimes a course may be hilly with lots of ups and downs. Bad weather with a lot of wind and rain also makes it more difficult for runners to achieve good results.
5 Don't start too fast, or you will become tired very quickly and can't continue. This is called “hitting the wall”. In most cases, runners then give up completely. On the other hand, you shouldn’t start too slowly, or you won't reach the time limit you want to achieve.
A. He needs to be well-prepared and train a lot.
B. Marathons are the most popular running events.
C. During a marathon, you should keep a right pace.
D. Sometimes the raceway is flat and runners run faster.
E. The fastest marathon race took place in Berlin in2018.
F. He only needs a pair of trainers and comfortable clothes.
G. It also helps you fight off stress after a tiring day in school or at work.

What can you do to say thank you in a meaningful way? Here are five creative ways to say thank you that your friends and family will always remember!
Send a letter. Snail-mail (普通邮件) is a largely lost art form. 6 What really matters is that you took the time to put pen to paper and express your feelings honestly!
Listen to them. Listening is almost as a lost art as the handwritten letter. When your friends or family members need to talk, listen to them. 7 Just letting them know you’re paying attention to them is a great way to say thank you for the time when they listened to you.
Make surprise gifts for them. There's no need to wait until “later” to send a thank-you message to people who helped you. Why not do it right away? Create gift bags with surprises inside. 8
Show them love. A simple hug, or helping out when they need it without being asked may be the most powerful gratitude (感谢) message。
