湖南省2024届高三下学期3月联考英语试卷学校：___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解Last year, brilliant’ botanists from Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, discovered, identified and named 114 spectacular new species of plants and fungi (真菌) from around the world. Let’s find out more about some of Kew’s most wonderful new finds.ROYAL MUSHROOMNAME: Queen’s hedgehog fungusFROM: Surrey, EnglandNamed after the late Queen Elizabeth II, this rare fungus was found in an ancient forest in White Down, Surrey. According to the scientists who discovered it, the soft, white needles under the fungus’15cm-wide cap look like hedgehogs’ needles — giving it the second part of its name. Cool!WORLD’S STRANGEST DAFFODILNAME: Sternbergia mishustiniiFROM: TurkeyThe flowers of this rare species are bright yellow, but they’re only 2cm long and don't open up into a visible flower. Just 300 of these plants have been discovered, secret to hide them from illegal plant collectors.RECORD-BREAKING WATERLILYNAME: Giant Bolivian waterlilyFROM: Bolivia. South AmericaCheck out this huge waterlily — its 3m wide leaves are big enough for a kid to float on! The big species has just won three Guinness World Records for largest waterlily, largest waterlily leaf and largest undivided leaf. And get this — although the giant plant was only named last year, a dried sample has been kept in Kew’s own Herbarium since 1845! Botanists had thought it was a similar, related species.

I remember my grandmother preparing fried dumplings and curry mutton, jazz music playing in the background. Food was our greatest treasure. Food brought the family tog ether. Food celebrated new beginnings and eased the wounds of life’s untimely endings.When I was 8, I was diagnosed with a muscle disease, which caused me to spend most of my childhood in hospital. rooms and wheelchairs, slowly gaining weight by swallowing prednisone (肾上腺皮质激素) hidden inside mint chocolate chip ice cream. My mom made it her duty to help me lose the weight through strict dieting. I’ve tried every single one. In fairness, my mother did the best she could. As a single mom, she felt this brought us closer. However, as an adult, I began to experience a paralyzing fear of food. My “I’ll start a new diet on Monday” mind-set lasted for 16 years as I uncontrollably ate and abused my body. I was worried that I was not attractive enough. So obsessed and afraid no one would hire me as an actress if I didn’t win the battle with the numbers on the scale, in February 2011 I was send to hospital.We do extreme things to our bodies because of those numbers, numbers that cannot talk with us or love us. I have had to stop judging my belly, stop starving myself, stop getting on the scale and staring at those numbers.

Particularly concerned.We normally think of bacteria as our ene mies. But they aren’t all bad. Our bodies are full of them and it turns out we can’t live without them. From the moment we’re born, we acquire,are interdependent players in our body. In fact, there are roughly as many microbial cells in our bodies as human cells. This microbial world is called our microbiome (微生物组).While some microbes can make us ill, we need our microbiome to survive. Combined, they are every bit as essential as our heart, our lungs, or our brain. Most of the microbiome is found in our gut (肠道). They are essential for digestion and help regulate hormones and boost our immune system.A healthy collection of microbes seems to be vital for our well-being, protecting against some of the biggest health threats. On the other hand, having an unhealthy microbiome may be a contributing factor for many common diseases. Our modern lifestyles, western diets and overuse of antibiotics might all be having a harmful effect on our internal ecology.So how do you develop a healthy microbiome in the gut? Well, it seems that the more diverse your microbial population is, the better. And the best way to increase your diversity is to eat a wide range of plant-based foods. Research shows that people who have at least 30 plant-based elements in their diet every week have a wider range of bacteria in their gut, and that’s linked to better weight management, better heart heath and better mental health. One easy way to boost your numbers is to add a teaspoon of mixed seeds to your breakfast.The influence of your gut microbes goes a lot further than you might think. In the last 20 years, we’ve learned that they communicate constantly with the brain, perhaps even having control over your mood and emotions.8．Which can best replace the underlined word symbiotic in the first paragraph?A. Coexisting.B. Beneficial.C. Special.D. Complicated.9．Which statement might the author agree with?A. Plant-based diets make people healthier.B. Microbiome is more important than our brain.C. There's some link between the diversity of bacteria and health.D. The overuse of antibiotics leads to distinct increase in microbiome.10．What might be discussed after the last paragraph?A. Examples of gut microbes.B. Gut microbes and mental welling-being.C. Interactions of microbes in our body.D. Ways to identify beneficial gut microbes.11．What's the best title for the passage?A. Gut microbes: Fighters in the bodyB. The microbiome: A cure of all diseasesC. Gut microbes: Protectors of mental healthD. The microbiome: A contributor to our healthA study expands positive evidence for a new screening tool that directly engages preschool children during clinic visits to assess their early literacy skills. The tool, called The Reading House (TRH), is the first of its kind. It has the potential to identify reading difficulties as early as possible, according to researchers at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center.TRH is an assessment developed by John Hutton and his team for kids aged from 3 to 5. Screening takes just about five minutes and assesses performance levels for kids aged from 3 to 5. It addresses a significant gap in ways to screen early literacy skills efficiently and directly. The tool, which is fun for kids, could be used in places like primary care or preschool settings. The screening measures core skills typically appearing in the preschool age range, including vocabulary, rhyming, alphabet knowledge and print concepts. All are skills predictive of reading success and often associated with reading difficulties.The study involved 70 healthy children – 34 boys and 36 girls---between 3 and 5 years old from various socioeconomic background. The children completed standardized tests of important literacy skills: vocabulary, rhyming arid rapid automatized naming. Fifty-two of these children also successfully completed MRI (磁共振成像), including the measurement of the gray matter surface of their brains. The thicker cortex (皮质), particularly in left-sided areas supporting language and reading, has been associated with higher skills that are predictive of reading outcomes.Many children arrive at kindergarten unprepared to learn to read, especially those from minority and economically poor backgrounds---estimated at over 50% of children from disadvantaged backgrounds in the U. S. and over 25% overall. “By screening early duringclinic visits, we can target effective interventions that help these children better prepare for kindergarten and improve reading outcomes –literally, snaping thein brains to read. ” said Hutton.12．What might be the purpose of creating TRH?A. To identify the best reading apps for kids.B. To develop preschool kids' literacy skills.C. To discover kids' reading problems early.D. To study key factors in kids’ development.13．What can we know about the new screening tool?A. It lacks reliability.B. It has operational advantages.C. It covers a wider target group.D. It’s modelled after conventional tools. 14．Which participants may be more capable of reading?A. Older children from minority groups.B. Younger children from economically advanced areas.C. Children with complex cortical patterns in their brains.D. Children with the thicker cortex in the left-sided areas of their brains.15．What attitude does Hutton have to TRH?A. Doubtful.B. Favorable.C. Uncertain.D. Conservative.二、七选五16．It’s obvious that our society favors the outgoing personality, so being introverted (内向的) has always been seen as something that needs to be “fixed”. However, there is no fault in being introverted. ① _________Introverts have hidden powers. ② _________ . While others are busy chatting, introverts observe things most-people are unaware of. Sometimes we can even read people. While it may seem introverts are always zoned out, we’re actually analyzing and thinking of creative ideas to one day share with you.Introverts also keep the world balanced. In a world that can’t stop talking, the ability to listen to what each other has to say is an important virtue that will assist us in building peaceful relationships of understanding. ③ _________ . By listening to whatever people pour out, introverts help maintain the order of the world.Introverts can self-recharge. Though the outgoing may gain their energy through mixing in crowds, introverts are self-recharging powerhouses. ④ _________ . Their energy is foundthrough loneliness.⑤ _________ . In the noise of chatterboxes, their voices often get drowned out. There’s nothing more disappointing to an introvert than finally taking advantage of a moment to speak, only to be interrupted by the extroverts (外向者）. While extroverts may speak every thought that comes to mind, an introvert will choose their thoughts carefully and only speak of the ones they think their best to share. So next time, all you have to do is to be willing to listen.A. Unluckily, introverts are faced with a big challenge.B. And this is exactly what our introverts are born with.C. Introverts have shown the potential to be great leaders.D. Extroverted people would have no one to listen to them.E. Instead, we should appreciate introverts for various reasons.F. They don’t need to constantly put themselves out there to be lively.G. Just because we introverts don’t say much doesn’t always mean we’re clueless.三、完形填空（15空）It had long been troubling a little boy that his desk mate could rank 1st in the class every time while he failed to: he only ranked 21st.Thank goodness she did not open her mouth.of unsatisfied grades and rankings, Mom decided to take him to the sea.speech affected the son into tears.Now, the son no longer worries about his rankings, because, with the 1st ranking, he isadmitted to a top university.17．A. clever B. determined C. mindful D.

湖南省部分学校2024-2025学年高三上学期阶段检测联合考试英语试卷一、阅读理解Scratchboard (刮板画) is a technique where the artist scratches away ink to reveal a color underneath, usually white. This scratchboard lesson plan is a great way to teach students the importance of highlights in an artwork. It forces them to think in reverse to pull the image from the surface.Overview and purpose: Students will learn the importance of highlights and lighter values in the creation of artworks. Students will learn the process of scratchboard etching (蚀刻).Materials: 9'' by 12'' scratchboard paper, graphite (石墨), ink, scratchboard tools or razor blades, ballpoint pens (optional).Delivery of info: Students will be presented with a demonstration of scratchboard. It is best to demonstrate this technique through the use of a document camera or with smaller groups of students. Graphite can be used to draw the preliminary drawing on the scratchboard paper. Students will then draw images on the surface and use either etching tools or razor blades to scratch away the lighter values and complete a scratchboard etching.Guided practice: Students will work while the teacher walks around and monitors progress. Students will have 7 days to complete the assignment.Address: The 3rd floor, Municipal Art Museum.1．What is the feature of scratchboard?A．Painting with different pens.B．Drawing on the layer below.C．Scratching the ink on the board’s surface.D．Etching some colorful images on a board.2．What will be used in the presentation of this art?A．A lot of graphite B．A document camera.C．Some etching tools.D．Some ballpoint pens.3．What is the purpose of the text?A．To promote a lesson.B．To sell some artworks.C．To introduce a new art.D．To attract more travelers.Somewhere in California, just up a hill from the beach is a high school, where students will meet before traveling to neighboring San Clemente High School on a Saturday fora 2-mile walk to raise money to build a well in a Kenyan village.Most Kenyans live where clean water is hard to access. The good news is that water that falls in the rainy season is stored far underground, sometimes as deep as 900 feet. But bringing it to the surface can be a challenge. Sometimes, it requires heavy-duty equipment. Shallower wells are less costly but still require manpower and technology to work. A single well can supply water to an entire village, and this can be life-changing.Weeks before the first annual Healing Hands for Water Walk Fundraiser event in 2012, students walked in the beach town and asked for donations from businesses. They covered a lot more distance than the 2 miles they would cover during the event as student organizers Branner Grimsley, Klara Gundelach and Solveig Erngren pounded on the boardwalk. “But it was worth it to make a difference by helping these people in Africa,” Grimsley said.Standing on the boardwalk and looking out over the sand to the horizon and beyond, you can see a lifeline reaching from a few dedicated kids to a similar group of kids in an African village. The connection was hard to imagine at first but now seems so real. Students on both sides of the world walk under the same sun. On other days, they would have different places to go, but today, they walk for the same reason: to share the bond of being one human family.In another Kenyan village, a well was completed. As the villagers excitedly operated the hand pump, the anticipation built. Within minutes, a trickle of clean water flowed, then a gush. It was a miracle in such a dry village. Buckets were filled, and children splashed water. The tears of joy flowed as easily as the well water.4．What can we know about building wells in Kenya from paragraph 2?A．It’s costly and useless.B．It’s easy and interestingC．It’s challenging but cheap D．It’s difficult but worthwhile.5．Why does paragraph 4 mention the connection?A．To praise the event’s participants.B．To show the difficulty of the event.C．To share the bond of the human family.D．To highlight the significance of the event.6．What is the last paragraph mainly about?A．The excitement of building a well.B．The requirement for completing a well.C．The joyous sight of drawing water from a well.D．The quality of the water from a local village’s well.7．Which of the following may be the best title for the text?A．From the Beach to KenyaB．Students’ Walk on the BeachC．Walking to a Neighboring SchoolD．Kenya’s Struggle for Clean WaterWhen the sun reaches its peak activity, known as solar maximum, its magnetic (磁的) field will reverse (逆转). This happens roughly every l1 years, marking an important stage in the solar cycle. It indicates the halfway point of solar maximum, the height of solar activity, and the beginning of the shift toward solar minimum.The last time the sun’s magnetic field flipped was toward the end of 2013. To understand the magnetic field’s reversal, first, it’s important to be familiar with the solar cycle. This approximately 11-year cycle of solar activity, driven by the sun’s magnetic field, is indicated by the frequency and intensity of sunspots visible on the surface. The height of solar activity during a given solar cycle is known as solar maximum, and current estimates predict it will occur between late 2024 and early 2026.“But there is another important, less-known cycle, the Hale cycle. This magnetic cycle lasts approximately 22 years, through which the sun’s magnetic field reverses and then reverts to its original state,” Ryan French, a solar astrophysicist, said.“During solar minimum, the sun’s magnetic field is close to a dipole (偶极子), with one north pole and one south pole, similar to Earth’s magnetic field. But as we shift toward solar maximum, the sun’s magnetic field becomes more complex, without a clear north-south poleseparation,” French said. By the time solar maximum passes and solar minimum arrives, the sun has returned to a dipole.The upcoming switch in polarity will be from the northern to southern magnetic field in the Northern Hemisphere and vice versa in the Southern Hemisphere. “This will bring it to a similar magnetic orientation to Earth, which also has its southern-pointing magnetic field in the Northern Hemisphere,” French explained.8．How does the author lead in the topic?A．By citing an instance.B．By showing a difference.C．By giving an interpretation.D．By making a comparison9．What is the relationship between the sun’s magnetic field and the solar cycle?A．Uncertain.B．Close.C．Strange.D．Indifferent. 10．Why did French mention Earth’s magnetic field?A．To make his reasons clear.B．To make his experiments convincing.C．To make his prediction accurate.D．To make his explanation specific.11．What does the underlined word “orientation” in the last paragraph mean?A．Emergency.B．Direction.C．Response.D．Procedure.For the past 20 years, I’ve searched libraries and the Internet for others who are thinking about the possible effect of the breakdown of multigenerational families. I’ve been surprised at how few resources exist on this topic. It’s the main reason I chose to finally write Family Revision.While I’ve expected one of the countless marriage and family writers and thinkers to address this topic, none seem to really understand that the transition (转变) from multigenerational families to nuclear families is at the root of so many of the other symptoms they discuss.Well, the silence on this topic was finally broken and it was not from a traditional family publication but from David Brooks, The New York Times columnist writing for The Atlantic. In an article nearly the length of a dissertation on this subject, Brooks masterfully exposes the rootproblem with the modern family.In the article, Brooks wrote, “When we discuss the problems the country is facing, we don’t talk about family enough. It feels too judgmental, too uncomfortable, and maybe even too religious. But the fact is that the nuclear family has been collapsing in slow motion for decades, and many of our other problems — with education, mental health, and the quality of the labor force — stem from that breakdown. We have left behind the family structure of the past. For most people it’s not coming back.”Many Americans are hungering to live in multigenerational families, in the way that is new and ancient at the same time. This is a significant opportunity, a chance to thicken and broaden family relationships, a chance to allow more adults and children to live and grow under the loving gaze of a dozen pairs of eyes, and be caught, when they fall, by a dozen pairs of arms. For decades we have been eating at smaller and smaller tables, with fewer and fewer relatives. It’s time for a change.12．Which word can best describe the breakdown of multigenerational families?A．Damaging.B．Extraordinary.C．Meaningful.D．Ineffective. 13．What does the author think of Brooks’ article?A．It’s a tradition.B．It’s a victory.C．It’s a comparison.D．It’s a breakthrough.14．What can be inferred from Brooks’ article?A．Most Americans have health problems.B．America is facing a sea change in society.C．Focusing on family-related issues is urgent.D．People benefit from the present family structure.15．What is the author’s attitude to the structure of multigenerational families?A．Dismissive.B．Approving.C．Unclear.D．Doubtful.The frequency of bathing usually depends on your age. It’s more than likely that older people, babies and young children have dry skin, which can lead to eczema (湿疹). 16 . For most people who have relatively normal skin, bathing every day is OK, and there are things you should pay attention to when taking a shower.Skin hydration (水合作用) is ensured by the bricks-and-mortar structure of the dead skin cells on the surface, which are bound together by natural moisturising (保湿) materials such as ceramides. Together, they keep moisture in your skin and prevent it from fading, but frequent bathing can wash this barrier away. 17 . After showering, apply moisturising cream while your skin is still damp, to lock in that moisture, rather than drying yourself thoroughly and then applying cream.18 , but most exfoliating (使死皮脱落) cleaning products can cause scratchs on the skin. In general, if you want to exfoliate, acid-based accelerators, such as glycolic or lactic acids, are more gentle. When it comes to your feet, products containing urea, which breaks up dry and dead skin cells, will soften better than abrasive scrubs.19 . If you have sensitive skin, avoid heavily sweet-smelling soaps, which contain additives that can cause irritation or allergic reactions.In general, soapy water will run down your legs and feet anyway. The upper leg and groin area is the part you should wash regularly, because it can become colonised by pathogens. 20 A．People often want to cleanse their skinB．So taking a reasonable number of baths is good for themC．It is important to choose a soap that suits your skin typeD．When purchasing cleaning products, you must be cautiousE．To protect them, avoid taking too hot and too long showersF．Anyway, you’d better wash thoroughly to remove all the soap remainsG．Remember to always have a break after your bath to keep your skin healthy二、完形填空Last month, I attended a cultural festival in the centre of our city, where we celebrated the theme of kindness through some exhibitions.

湖南高三高中英语高考真卷带答案解析
湖南高三高中英语高考真卷班级:___________ 姓名：___________ 分数：___________一、阅读理解You’re sitting on the train home and the person opposite you yawns(打哈欠). Suddenly, you’re yawning with him, though you’re not tired.This phenomenon confused scientists for years until a recent study found that people tend to sympathize with fellow humans. Supporting this claim was the discovery that those children who were unable to form normal emotional ties with others did not experience contagious(有感染力的) yawning, which showed that humans communicate regularly with out words.Hugo Critchley, a neuroscientist, has conducted an experiment recently, which will prove that happiness and sadness can spread like the common cold. According to Critechley, our mind and body are in constant exchange about how we’re feeling. “Emotions are closely linked with states of internal(内部的) responses,” he explained. “ There are also more visible changes in our gestures and facial expression. When we’re in a group, these signals can spread to another person. For example, there’s the obvious tendency to smile when smiled at and there are less obvious changes that reflect emotions of surprise, anger or sadness such as a change in our heart rate and blood pressure.Hugo Critchley further explained, “Our bodies synchronies and when we like the other person, we ever copy his behavior. Next time you chat with a friend, take note of how you’re sitting—it’s pretty likely that you will be the same. Scientists believe it’s our way of telling each other that we’re partners. Through body language, humans give each other very subtle(微妙的) but clear signals that show emotions.”So, what lessons can we learn from this? “ Spend time with happy people— otherwise your health co uld suffer,” said Critchley.” When we’re sad, our body goes into fight or flight mode. But when we’re happy, our body works normally and we feel relaxed and positive.

Suddenly, you’re yawning with him, though you’re not tired.This phenomenon confused scientists for years until a recent study found that people tend to sympathize with fellow humans. Supporting this claim was the discovery that those children who were unable to form normal emotional ties with others did not experience contagious(有感染力的) yawning, which showed that humans communicate regularly with out words.Hugo Critchley, a neuroscientist, has conducted an experiment recently, which will prove that happiness and sadness can spread like the common cold. According to Critechley, our mind and body are in constant exchange about how we’re feeling. “Emotions are closely linked with states o f internal(内部的) responses,” he explained. “ There are also more visible changes in our gestures and facial expression. When we’re in a group, these signals can spread to another person. For example, there’s the obvious tendency to smile when smiled at and there are less obvious changes that reflect emotions of surprise, anger or sadness such as a change in our heart rate and blood pressure.Hugo Critchley further explained, “Our bodies synchronies and when we like the other person, we ever copy his behavior. Next time you chat with a friend, take note of how you’re sitting—it’s pretty likely that you will be the same. Scientists believe it’s our way of telling each other that we’re partners. Through body language, humans give each other very subtle(微妙的) but clear signals that show emotions.”So, what lessons can we learn from this? “ Spend time with happy people—otherwise your health could suffer,” said Critchley.” When we’re sad, our body goes into fight or flight mode. But when we’re happy, our body works normally and we feel relaxed and positive. So we look bright, our skin glows, we feel healthy and it affects everyone around us.”【1】 According to Hugo Critchley, ________.A．emotions are as visible as facial expressionsB．we yawn more frequently when we have a coldC．emotions are connected with states of internal responsesD．the change of blood pressure is not linked with the change of emotions.【答案】C【解析】根据第三段的“Emotions are closed linked with states of internal responses,”得知C正确。

The Gooyer，Windmill.B. The Skinny Bridge.C. Heineken Brewery.D. Dam Square.BWhen John Todd was a child，he loved to explore the woods around his house，observing how nature solved problems.A dirty stream，for example，often became clear after flowing through plants and along rocks where tiny creatures lived.When he got older，John started to wonder if this process could be used to clean up the messes people were making.After studying agriculture，medicine，and fisheries in college，John went back to observing nature and asking questions.Why can certain plants trap harmful bacteria（细菌）？Which kinds of fish can eat cancer-causing chemicals？With the right combination of animals and plants，he figured，maybe he could clean up waste the way nature did.He decided to build what he would later call an eco-machine.The task John set for himself was to remove harmful substances from some sludge（污泥）.First，he constructed a series of clear fiberglass tanks connected to each other.Then he went around to local ponds and streams and brought back some plants and animals.He placed them in the tanks and waited.Little by little，these different kinds of life got used to one another and formed their own ecosystem.After a few weeks，John added the sludge.He was amazed at the results.The plants and animals in the eco-machine took the sludge as food and began to eat it!Within weeks，it had all been digested，and all that was left was pure water.Over the years，John has taken on many big jobs.He developed a greenhouse-like facility that treated sewage （污水）from 1，600 homes in South Burlington.He also designed an eco-machine to clean canal water in Fuzhou，a city in southeast China. "Ecological design"is the name John gives to what he does."Life on Earth is kind of a box of spare parts for the inventor，"he says."You put organisms in new relationships and observe what's happening.Then you let these new systems develop their own ways to self-repair."4. What can we learn about John from the first two paragraphs？______A. He was fond of traveling.B. He enjoyed being alone.C. He had an inquiring mind.D. He longed to be a doctor.5. Why did John put the sludge into the tanks？______A. To feed the animals.B. To build an ecosystem.C. To protect the plants.D. To test the eco-machine.6. What is the author's purpose in mentioning Fuzhou？______A. To review John's research plans.B. To show an application of John's idea.C. To compare John's different jobs.D. To erase doubts about John's invention.7. What is the basis for John's work______A. Nature can repair itself.B. Organisms need water to survive.C. Life on Earth is diverse.D. Most tiny creatures live in groups.CThe goal of this book is to make the case for digital minimalism，including a detailed exploration of what it asks and why it works，and then to teach you how to adopt this philosophy if you decide it's right for you. To do so，I divided the book into two parts.In part one，I describe the philosophical foundations of digital minimalism，starting with an examination of the forces that are making so many people's digital lives increasingly intolerable，before moving on to a detailed discussion of the digital minimalism philosophy. Part one concludes by introducing my suggested method for adopting this philosophy：the digital declutter.This process requires you to step away from optional online activities for thirty days.At the end of the thirty days，you will then add back a small number of carefully chosen online activities that you believe will provide massive benefits to the things you value.In the final chapter of part one，I'll guide you through carrying out your own digital declutter.In doing so.I'll draw on an experiment I ran in 2018 in which over 1，600 people agreed to perform a digital declutter.You'll hear these participants' stories and learn what strategies worked well for them，and what traps they encountered that you should avoid.The second part of this book takes a closer look at some ideas that will help you cultivate a sustainable digital minimalism lifestyle.In these chapters，I examine issues such as the importance of solitude and the necessity of cultivating high-quality leisure to replace the time most now spend on mindless device use.Each chapter concludes with a collection of practices，which are designed to help you act on the big ideas of the chapter.You can view these practices as a toolbox meant to aid your efforts to build a minimalist lifestyle that words for your particular circumstances.8. What is the book aimed at？______A. Teaching critical thinking skills.B. Advocating a simple digital lifestyle.C. Solving philosophical problems.D. Promoting the use of a digital device.9. What does the underlined word" declutter"in paragraph 3 mean？______A. Clear-up.B. Add-on.C. Check-in.D. Take-over.10. What is presented in the final chapter of part one？______A. Theoretical models.B. Statistical methods.C. Practical examples.D. Historical analyses.11. What does the author suggest readers do with the practices offered in part two？______A. Use them as needed.B. Recommend them to friends.C. Evaluate their effects.D. Identify the ideas behind them.DOn March 7，1907，the English statistician Francis Galton published a paper which illustrated what has come to be known as the "wisdom of crowds" effect.The experiment of estimation he conducted showed that in some cases，the average of a large number of independent estimates could be quite accurate. This effect capitalizes on the fact that when people make errors，those errors aren't always the same.Some people will tend to overestimate，and come to underestimate.When enough of these errors are averaged together，they cancel each other out，resulting in a more accurate estimate.If people are similar and tend to make the same errors，then their errors won't cancel each other out.In more technical terms，the wisdom of crowds requires that people's estimates be independent.If for whatever reasons，people's errors become correlated or dependent，the accuracy of the estimate will go down.But a new study led by Joaquin Navajas offered an interesting twist （转折）on this classic phenomenon.The key finding of the study was that when crowds were further divided into smaller groups that were allowed to have a discussion，the averages from these groups were more accurate than those from an equal number of independent individuals.For instance，the average obtained from the estimates of four discussion groups of five was significantly more accurate than the average obtained from 20 independent individuals.In a follow-up study with 100 university students，the researchers tried to get a better sense of what the group members actually did in their discussion.Did they tend to go with those most confident about their estimates Did they follow those least willing to change their minds？This happened some of the time，but it wasn't the dominant response.Most frequently，the groups reported that they "shared arguments and reasoned together." Somehow，these arguments and reasoning resulted in a global reduction in error. Although the studies led by Navajas have limitations and many questions remain，the potential implications for group discussion and decision-making are enormous.12. What is paragraph 2 of the text mainly about？______A. The methods of estimation.B. The underlying logic of the effect.C. The causes of people's errors.D. The design of Galton's experiment.13. Navajas' study found that the average accuracy could increase even if ______A. the crowds were relatively smallB. there were occasional underestimatesC. individuals did not communicateD. estimates were not fully independent14. What did the follow-up study focus on？______A. The size of the groups.B. The dominant membersC. The discussion process.D. The individual estimates.15. What is the author's attitude toward Navajas' studies？______A. Unclear.B. Dismissive.C. Doubtful.D. Approving.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.16.

Personally, I have found that learning a second language has allowed me to connect with people from around the world and has enriched my travel experiences.In conclusion, learning a second language is a valuable skill that can benefit both individuals and society as a whole.

A note is often a 51 better way to "talk" with a child than using the telephone. For one thing, parents have time to think about 52what they want to say before they write.

(D)BWhen Mary Moore began her high school in 1951, her mother told her, "Be sure and take a typing course so when this show business thing doesn't work out, you'll have something to rely on." Mary responded in typical teenage fashion. From that moment on, "the very last thing I ever thought about doing was taking a typing course," she recalls.The show business thing worked out, of course. In her career, Mary won many awards. Only recently, when she began to write Growi ng Up Again, did she regret ignoring her morn," I don't know how to use a computer," she admits.Unlike her 1995 autobiography, After All, her second book is less about life as an award-winning actress and more about living with diabetes (糖尿病).All the money from the book is intended for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), an organization she serves as international chairman. "I felt there was a need for a book like this," she says."I didn't want to lecture, but I wanted other diabetics to know that things get better when we're self-controlled and do our part in managing the disease."But she hasn't always practiced what she teaches. In her book, she describes that awful day, almost 40 years ago, when she received two pieces of life-changing news. First, she had lost the baby she was carrying, and second, tests s howed that she had diabetes. In a childlike act, she left the hospital and treated herself to a box of doughnuts (甜甜圈). Years would pass before she realized she had to grow u p ---again---and take control of her diabetes, not let it control her. Only then did she kick her three-pack-a-day cigarette habit, overcome her addiction to alcohol, and begin to follow a balanced diet.Although her disease has affected her eyesight and forced her to the sidelines of the dance floor, she refuses to fall into self-pity. "Everybody on earth can ask, 'why me?' about something or other," she insists. "It doesn't do any good. No one is immune (免疫旳) to heartache, pain, and disappointments. Sometimes we can make things better by helping others. I've come to realize the importance of that as I've grown up this second time. I want tospeak out and be as helpful as I can be."61. Why did Mary feel regretful?A. She didn't achieve her ambition.B. She didn't tak e care of her mother.C. She didn't complete her high school.D. She didn't follow her mother's advice. (D) 62, We can know that before 1995 Mary .A. had two books publishedB. received many career awardsC. knew how to use a computerD. supported the JDRF by writing (B)63. Mary's second book Growing Up Again is mainly about her .A. living with diabetesB. successful show businessC. service for an organizationD. remembrance of her mother (A)64. When Mary received the life-changing news, she .A. lost control of herselfB. began a balanced dietC. Med to get a treatmentD. behaved in an adult way (A)65. What can we know from the last paragraph?A. Mary feels pity for herself.B. Mary has recovered from her disease.C. Mary wants to help others as much as possible.D. Mary determines to go back to th e dance floor. (C)CPeople from East Asia tend to have more difficulty than those from Europe in distinguishing facial expressions —and a new report published online in Current Biology explains why.Rachael Jack, University of Glasgow researcher, said that rather than scanning evenly(均匀旳) across a face as Westerners do, Easterners fix their attention on the eyes."We show that Easterners and Westerners look at different face features to read facial expressions," Jack said. "Westerners look at the eyes and the mouth in equal measure, whereas Easterners favor the eyes and neglect (忽视) the mouth."According to Jack and her colleagues, the discovery shows that human communication of emotion is more complex than previously believed. As a result, facial expressions that had been considered universally recognizable cannot be used to reliably convey emotion in cross-cultural situations.The researchers studied cultural differences in the recognition of facial expressions by recording the eye movements of 13 Western Caucasian and 13 East Asian people while they observed pictures of. expressive faces and put them into categories: happy, sad, surprised, fearful, disgusted, angry, or neutral. They compared how accurately participants read those facial expressions using their particular eye movement strategies.It turned out that Easterners focused much greater attention on the eyes and made significantly more errors than did Westerners. "The cultural difference in eye movements that they show is probably a reflection of cultural difference in facial expressions," Jack said. "Our da ta suggest that whereas Westerners use the whole face to convey emotion, Easterners use the eyes more and mouth less."In short, the data show that facial expressions are not universal signals of human emotion. From here on, examining how cultural factors have diversified these basic social skills will help our understanding of human emotion. Otherwise, when it comes to communicating emotions across cultures, Easterners and Westerners will find themselves lost in translation.66. The discovery shows that Westerners .A. pay equal attention to the eyes and the mouthB. consider facial expressions universally reliableC. observe the eyes and the mouth in different waysD. have more difficulty in recognizing facial expressions (A)67. What were the people asked to do in the study?A. To make a face at each other.B. To get their faces impressive.C. To classify some face pictures.D. To observe the researchers' faces. (C)68. What does the underlined word "they" in Paragraph 6 refer to?A. The participants in the study.B. The researchers of the study.C. The errors made during the study.D. The data collected from the study. (A)69. In comparison with Westerners, Easterners are likely to .A. do translation more successfullyB. study the mouth more frequentlyC. examine the eyes more attentivelyD. read facial expressions more correctly (C)70. What can be the best title for the passage?A. The Eye as the Window to the SoulB. Cultural Differences in Reading EmotionsC. Effective Methods to Develop Social SkillsD. How to Increase Cross-cultural Understanding (B) Part 1V Writing (45 marks)Section A (10 marks)Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.An apprenticeship is a form of on-the-job training that combines workplace experience and classroom learning. It can last anywhere from one to six years, but four years is typical for most. An apprentice spends the majority of the time in a workplace environment learning the practical skills of a career from a journeyman-- someone who has done the job for many years. The rest of the apprentice's time is spent in a classroom environment learning the theoretical skills the career requires. Being an apprentice is a full-time undertaking.One of the advantages of apprenticeship is that it does not cost apprentices anything. The companies that hire them pay for school. What's more, it offers apprentices an "earn while you learn" opportunity. They usually start out at half the pay of a journeyman, and the pay increases gradually as they move further along in the job and studies. Near the end of the apprenticeship, their wages are usually 90 percent of what a journeyman would receive. Apprenticeship also pays off for employers. It can offer employers a pool of well-trained workers to draw from.Despite the advantages, apprentices are usually required to work during the day and attend classes at night, which leaves little time for anything else. Sometimes, they might be laid off(下岗) if business for th e employers is slow.Once they have completed the apprenticeship and become journeymen, they receive a nationally recogni zed and portable certification and their pay also increases again. Some journeymen continue employment with the companies they apprenticed with; others go onto different companies or become self-employed contractors.71.

Linda has never met the children, but that’s all part of the joy of giving as secret Santas, she says."It's an amazing feeling to buy gifts on an anonymous (匿名旳) basis," says Linda. "It brings a whole new meaning to the holidays."Linda and Tony are an American couple living in Toronto, Canada, and Linda did charitable work as amember of the American Women's Club of Toront o. As the name suggests, members are U.S. citizens living in Toronto, who join together for fellowship and community service.To find her "adopted" family, Linda goes to the local schools and requests a wish list for a family that's struggling to survive. Last year she helped a single mother with three children. The mother works as a cleaning lady in a nursing home."The list is always heartbreaking. They have an opportunity to ask for anything and do just the opposite, asking for basic clothes or simple toys," she says. "We always buy the kids a new winter coat, hats, and gloves." She also buys gifts for the parents.Last year Linda asked the mother for a second wish list--one that didn't include the basics. "Every child should have a Christmas that sticks with them for a lifetime." She purchased iPods for the two older children and a video game system for the youngest."I have learned a very valuable lesson in all of this," says Linda. "Pay attention to what's going on in your own backyard--no matter where you live."The joy of giving as secret Santas is much sweeter when the gift is anonymous.Section C (25 marks)Directions: Write an English composition according to the instructions given below in Chinese.假设你和几位同学成立了一种英语俱乐部，开展了为期两个月旳活动。

However, Karen makes up her mind.She will takeMichael whether they like it or not. "If he doesn't see his sister now, he may neversee her alive. "She dresses him m an oversized scrub suit and marches him into ICU. The head nurse recognizeshim as a child and bellows, "Get that kid out of here now!" The mother, the usually mild-mannered lady glares steel-eyed into the head nurse's face, her lips a firm line. "He is notleaving until he sings to his sister!" Karen tows Michael to his sister's bedside. He gazes at thetiny infant losing the battle to live. And he begins to sing."You are my sunshine, my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are gray.

When you select your career, there's a whole lot more toit zhan assessing your skills and matching them with a particular position. If you ignore yourersonality, it will hurt you long-term regardless of your skills or the job's pay. There areseveral areas of your personality that you need to consider to help you find a good job. Here are a. ew of those main areas:1) Do you prefer working alone or with other people?There are isolating jobs that will drive an outgoing person crazy and also interactive jobs thatwill make a shy person uneasy. Most people are not extremes in either direction but do have atendency that they prefer. There are also positions that are sometimes a combination of the two,which may be best for someone in the middle who adapts easily to either situation. . 2) How do you handle change?Most jobs these days have some elements of change to them, but some are more than others.If you need stability in your life, you may need a job where the changes don't happen so often.Other people would be bored of the same daily routine.3) Do you enjoy working with computers?I do see this as a kind of personality characteristic. There are people who are happy to spendmore than 40 hours a week on a computer, while there are others who need a lot of humaninteraction throughout the day. Again, these are extremes and you'll likely find a lot of positionssomewhere in the middle as well.4) What type of work environment do you enjoy?This can range from being in a large building with a lot of people you won't know immediately to a smaller setting where you'll get to know almost all the people there fairly quickly.5) How do you like to get paid?Some people are motivated by the pay they get, while others feel too stressed to be like that.The variety of payment designs in the sales industry is a typical example for this. Anyway, these are a great starting point for you. I've seen it over and over again with peoplethat they make more money over time when they do something they love. It may take you a littlelonger, but making a move to do what you have a passion for can change the course of your lifefor the better.61. What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph One mean?A Before you select your job, you should assess your skills and match them withyour positionB. There are more important things than assessing skills and matching them withthe positionwhen you select a job.C. Nothing is important than assessing skills and matching them with the positionwhen youselect a job.D. You should ignore your skills when you select a job.62.

Almost everyone has a tendencyin jobs.63. The underlined word "stabilitv' in the passage most probably means " ".A. no changeB. no angerC. gentlenessD. qualification64. In a job search, what quality is not mentioned in the passage?A Shyness. B. MotiVation. C. Perseverance. D. Passion65. What could be the best title for this passage?A Lifestyles and Job Pay B. Jobs and EnvironmentC. Job Skills and AbilitiesD.

Block letters.And those college hopefuls are just the first edge of a wave of US studentswho no longcr getmuch handwriting instructions in the primary grades, frequently 10 minutes a dayor less.

At some schools in Prince George'sCounty, elementary school students use a program called Handwriting Without Tears for 15minutes a day. They learn the correct formation of manuscript letters through second grade, andcursive letters in third grade.There are always going to be some kids who struggle with handwriting because of theirparticular neurological(神经系统的) wiring, learning issues or poor motor skills. Educatorsoften point to this factor in support of keyboarding.66. What is the author concerned about after 2011 SAT exams?A Keyboarding. B. Shorthand. C. Handwriting. D. Block letters.67.

Fill in the numbered blanks by using the in formation from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.There are two types of people in the world. Although they have equal degree of health andwealth and other comforts of life, one becomes happy while the other becomes unhappy. Thisdifference comes from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, events, and theresulting effects upon their minds.People who are to be happy fix their attention on the convenience of things, the pleasantparts of a conversation, the well prepared dishes, for example. They enjoy all the cheerfulthings. Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the opposite things. So, they'realways dissatisfied. They cannot feel the pleasure of society, they hurt other people, and theymake themselves unpopular everywhere. Their intention of criticizing and being disliked isperhaps taken up by imitation, but it gradually grows into a bad habit as time goes onThough being unhappy is most probably an act of imagination, it has serious results in life,for it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck The unhappy ones hurt many people; nobody willlovethem, and nobody will treat them with basic politeness and respect. When they need someadvantages in social position or fortune, no one will wish them success.In order to help the unhappy ones, it is strongly suggested that they should change their badhabit and be pleased with what is pleasing, without worrying needlessly about themselves and theothers. If they do it, it will be good for both themselves and the others, and bright life willdefinitely smile at them some day.Section B(10 marks)Directions: React the following passage.
