The decision was announced during the online meeting of the UNESCO Intergovernmental Committee for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage held from December 14 to19 inKingston, capital ofJamaica.“Born in the mid-17th century in a small village named Chenjiagou located in Central China's Henan province, Tai Chi is not only a kind of traditional Wushu integrated with slow movements and deep breathing, but is also deeply rooted in many areas of Chinese culture, such as medicine and philosophy,”Zhu Xianghua says, who is the son of the famous Tai Chi master Zhu Tiancai.Although it has spread to more than 150 countries and regions, attracting more than 100 million people to practice, the idea that Tai Chi is for the elderly has stopped many young people practicing the ancient Wushu. They think of it as a slow exercise, which is specially made and better suited for their grandparents. Instead, many young people are turning to the Indian practice of yoga(瑜伽)to relieve stress, which was placed on the UNESCO's List in 2019.In order to promote Tai Chi, joint efforts have been made from individuals and the Chinese government in thelast decades. Xi'an Jiaotong University requires students to learn Tai Chi. Wang Yunbing, a professor in the university's sports center, stressed that Tai Chi is not only good physical exercise-researchers from the American College of Rheumatology find that it can help manage several diseases but is also conned ted to ancient Chinese eivilization. Since 2014, the World Tai Chi Championships have been held every two years by the International Wushu Federation. It provides a platform for communication and learning between the Tai Chi masters and Tai Chi lovers around the globe. In January 2020, Tai Chi became an official event in the 2026 Dakar Youth Olympic Games.8. What does Zhu Xianghua say about Tai Chi in paragraph 2?A. It originated from fast Kung Fu action.B. It was born around the 1750s in a village.C. It is related to other cultural fields ofChina.D. It integrates Chinese medicine and western philosophy.9. Why do some young people choose to practice yoga instead of Tai Chi?A. They think it easier to practice yoga to keep fit.B. The elderly stop young people practicing Tai Chi.C. They consider Tai Chi is custom-built for old people.D. Yoga was included in the world culture earlier than Tai Chi.10. What is the main purpose of the last paragraph?A. To promote contemporary Chinese civilization.B. To show many efforts made to popularize Tai Chi.C. To stress the importance of Chinese Tai Chi masters.D. To advise people to practise Tai Chi to cure diseases.11.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Tai Chi Steps on the UNESCO's List.B. Tai Chi is Competing against Yoga.C. Tai Chi Has Regained populate Globally.D. Opinions Greatly Differ on Tai Chi and Yoga.DAs every mobile-phone owner knows, after a year or so the battery starts to fade and the beast needs recharging more frequently.That is troublesome, but a phone’s batteries can be replaced fairly cheaply — or thewhole device traded in for the latest model. An electric car, though, is a much bigger investment. And batteries are its priciest component, representing around 30% of an average mid-size vehicle.To provide buyers with some peace of mind, carmakers guarantee their batteries, typically for eight years or around 200,000km. Producers, planning to go much further than that, though, are racing to launch “million mile”(1.6m kilometers) batteries. Contemporary Amperex Technology, a giant Chinese firm which produces batteries fora number of carmakers, was said to be ready to start producing batteries which would last for 16 years or 2m kilometres. Elon Musk has suggested that Tesla,a Californian maker of electric vehicles, has a million-mile battery in the works. And over in Detroit,General Motors is in the final stages of developing an advanced battery which it says has similar longevity (寿命)。

2020-2021学年上海华二(紫竹)高三英语下学期3月考试卷及答案
2021华二(紫竹)高三英语下学期3月考试卷II. Grammar and Vocabulary (20分)Section ADirections: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.Tweenbots are human-dependent cardboard robots that navigate the city with the help of pedestrians they encounter. Rolling at a constant speed, in a straight line, Tweenbots have a destination (21) (display) on a flag and rely on passer-by they come across to read this flag and to aim them in the right direction to reach their goal.I walked out to Washington Square Park on a sunny summer day, (22) (place) my first Tweenbot on the sidewalk, and walked away. From a distance, I observed as the Tweenbot––a smiling 10-inch tall cardboard missionary––bumped along towards his inevitable fate.It was incredible.(23) _______ a Tweenbot got caught under a park bench, ground repeatedly against a curb, or became trapped in a pothole, some passer-by would always rescue it and send it toward its goal. Never once (24) a Tweenbot lost or damaged. Often, people would ignore the instructions to aim the Tweenbot in the "right" direction, if that direction meant (25) (send) the robot into a dangerous situation. One man turned the robot back in the direction (26) _______ it had just come, saying out loud to the Tweenbot, "You can’t go that way, it’s toward the road."The Tweenbot’s unexpected presence in the city created an unfolding narrative that speaks to the power of a simple technological object (27) (create) a complex network powered by human intelligence and asynchronous(非同时发生的) interactions. The journey (28) take becomes a story of people's willingness to engage with a creature that mirrors human characteristics of being easily harmed, of being lost, and of having intention (29) the means of achieving its goal alone.(30) each encounter with an empathetic(有同感的) pedestrian takes a Tweenbot one step closer to reaching its destination, the significance of our random discoveries and individual actions builds up into a story about a vast space made small by an even smaller robot.Section B (10分)Directions: Complete the passage with the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.Narrowing the Gap between College Degrees and Practical Skills Getting a university degree has never seemed more important: college graduates earn more money, live longer, and are happier. But college degrees are expensive (especially in the US), 31 focused(especially in the UK), and often fail to build the skills employers want (true in most countries).A new university in the UK wants to change that.The London Interdisciplinary School (LIS), which will 32 . in 2021 with a target of 100 students, will scrap traditional academic subjects and offer a three-year bachelor of arts and sciences degree designed to 33 real-world issues. The 34 is built around interdisciplinary problems-knife crime, childhood obesity, palm oil in supply chains, plastic pollution----as well as quantitative and qualitative research skills. Employers like the Met Police, Innocent, and Virgin will provide project ideas and offer five-week work experience for students.The idea is similar to a US liberal arts degree (a rarity in the UK) but also more explicitly focused on "interdisciplinarity, "or drawing on 35 subjects-economics, psychology, sociology, statistics-to solve 36 problems like childhood obesity. In other words, the problem, not the subject, sits at the center of the curriculum. The skills students develop, the founders hope, will more closely agree with what an Al-infused, automated world demands: 37 between people and machines, critical thinking, speaking and writing skills, and data management, to name just a few things.Students will tackle problems through various disciplines: knife crime, for example, by understanding cultural and socioeconomic factors in different neighborhoods, data science, statistics, publicly 38 data, an economics or psychology lens.In the UK, students apply through a central clearinghouse, and exam results are of primary importance. At LIS, students will instead apply 39 and all will be invited to a"selection day" which will include a face-to-face interview so that LIS can understand a students' background,motivations, and passions. Interviews will be conducted by a panel to minimize bias. Conditional offers will be 40 based on personal background, circumstances and, also, grades.III. Reading Comprehension (45 分)Section ADirections: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word of phrase that best fits the context.Reading award-winning literature may boost your ability to read other people, a new study suggests. Researchers at the New School for Social Research found that when they had volunteers read works of acclaimed(受到称赞的) “literary fiction”, it seemed to temporarily improve their ability to (41)________ other people's emotions. The same was not (42)________ of nonfiction or “popular" fiction, the mystery, romance and science fiction books that often dominate bestseller lists.Researchers (43)________ a series of five experiments which participants read either literary fiction, popular fiction, nonfiction or nothing at all before taking some standard tests. One of the tests is known as "Reading the Mind in the Eyes”. People have to look at photos of actors’ eyes, and then guess what emotion is being expressed in each. The test is considered a(n) (44)________ of empathy. Overall, study participants scored better after reading literary fiction, versus the other three (45)________.It was a(n) (46)________ improvement, according to the principal researcher David Comer Kidd, "It's not like taking people from a ‘C' to an ‘A' ," he said. But, Kidd added, the effect was seen after only about 10 minutes’ reading, and it was a statistically strong finding, mean ing it's unlikely to have been due to (47)________.What's so (48)________ about literary fiction? It's usually more focused on character than on plot. There is usually no single "dominant narrator" who takes readers through the story. It (49)________ that the readers should think about the characters and fill in the gaps. The author doesn't tell you what to think. Readers have to make (50)________ about characters. And that's often what people are doing in the real-life conversations."This is great study!" said Raymond Mar, an associate professor of psychology at York University, who was not involved in the new study. (51)________, he added that the overall research in this area is "still in its infancy" and one key question is whether literary fiction really (52)________ other types of fiction. So, it's too early to tell people to (53)________ their romance novel for Nobel literature, at least if the goal is boosting empathy.But it is (54)________ that the findings suggest literature is important beyond entertainment or improving vocabulary. “There’s a common belief that reading literature is frivolous(可笑的), or not practical,” Mar said. “But there's a growing body of evidence that it's important in (55)________ that we need in our lives.”41. A. evaluate B. manage C. spell D. interpret42. A. true B. successful C. critical D. compulsory43. A. participated in B. went through C. set up D. compared to44.

A. conversations B. moods C. skills D. innovationsSection BDirections:Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)There are few situations more unpleasant than a television presenter trying to hang on to a job. When one of the presenters of the BBC program Crimewatch resigned recently, rather than suffer the inevitable indignity of being unfinished and replaced by a younger version, he made the usual hurt noises about his masters’ overemphasis on youth. People in the media listened sympathetically before he slid from view to join the ranks of television’s has-beens.The presenter’s argument, that the viewers don’t care how old you are so long as you can “do the job,” unfortunately is not backed up by the evidence. When you're on TV, viewers are always thinking about whether you're losing your hair or your figure and, lately, whether you've had cosmetic work done. This is what they’re actually doing when you think they’re listening to the wise things you say. Viewers actually don't understand much of what the job involves, they just see you sitting there looking the part. Like the ability to pat one’s head while rubbing one's stomach, TV presenting is just one of those skills. Some of those who possess this skill can hit the big name. inevitablyas they become more attached to the lifestyle this brings, however, the more likely they are to overstate the skill.In reality,if somebody is paying you a lot of money to do a job,it's often on the tacit(心照不宣的)understanding that you may be fired suddenly---it's part of the deal. Unlike football managers, TV presenters pretend not to understand this. If they’ve had many years being paid silly sums to read a script from an autocue(自动题词机),it's difficult for them to accept that they³ve been the beneficiary of good fortune rather than anything else; even harder to face the fact that an editor could all too easily send them to the shopping channels.Something similar eventually awaits all the people who are currently making fortunes that would have been unimaginable to earlier generations of presenters. One day we'll decide that their face no longer fits and they³ll be dragged away complaining about the same ageist policy from which they no doubt previously profited. Show business is a brutal(残忍的)business. The one thing it reliably punishes is age, particularly among women. That's why, at the age of fifty, female TV presenters become female radio presenters and why girl bands planning to re-form need to get it done before they're forty, after which it will get too hard for everyone to suspend their collective disbelief.56. What does the writer imply about the Crimewatch presenter he mentions in the first paragraph?A. He was unwise to resign when he did.B. He will soon be forgotten by the viewers.C. He may well have had a valid point to make.D. He was treated insensitively by his employers.57.

Nov.16D.Nov.20(C)Students of United States history, seeking to identify the circumstances that encouraged the emergence of feminist(女权主义者) movements, have thoroughly investigated the mid-nineteenth-century American economic and social conditions that affected the status of women. These historians, however, have analyzed less fully the development of specifically feminist ideas and activities during the same period. Furthermore, the ideological origins of feminism in the United States have been obscured because, even when historians did take into account those feminist ideas and activities occurring within the United States, they failed to recognize that feminism was then a truly international movement actually centered in Europe. American feminist activists who have been described as “solitary” and “individual theorists” were in reality connected to a movement utopian socialism--which was already popularizing feminist ideas in Europe during the two decades that culminated(到达顶峰) in the first women’s rights conference held at Seneca Falls. New York, in 1848. Thus, a complete understanding of the origins and development of nineteenth-century feminism in the United States requires that the geographical focus be widened to include Europe and that the detailed study already made of social conditions be expanded to include the ideological development of feminism.The earliest and most popular of the utopian socialists were the Saint-Simonians. The specifically feminist part of Saint-Simoniamism has, however, been less studied than the group’s contribution to early socialism. This is regrettable on two counts. By 1832 feminism was the central concern of Saint-Simonianism and entirely absorbed itsadherents’ energy; hence, by ignoring its feminism. European historians have misunderstood Saint-Simonianism. Moreover, since many feminist ideas can be traced to Saint-Simonianism, European historians’ appreciation of later feminism in France and the United States remained limited.Saint-Simon's followers, many of whom were women, based their feminism on an interpretation of his project to reorganize the globe by replacing brute force with the rule of spiritual powers. The new world order would be ruled together by a male, to represent reflection, and a female, to represent sentiment. This complementarity reflects the fact that, while the Saint-Simonians did not reject the belief that there were innate differences between men and women, they nevertheless foresaw an equally important social and political role for both sexes in their Utopia.Only a few Saint-Simonians opposed a definition of sexual equality based on gender distinction. This minority believed that individuals of both sexes were born similar in capacity and character, and they owed male-female differences to socialization and education. The envisioned result of both currents of thought, however, was that women would enter public life in the new age and that sexual equality would reward men as well as women with an improved way of life.63. It can be inferred that the author considers those historians who describe early feminists in the United States as“solitary” to be______________.A. insufficiently familiar with the international origins of nineteenth-century American feminist thoughtB. overly concerned with the regional diversity of feminist ideas in the period before 1848C. not focused narrowly enough in their geo-graphical scopeD. insufficiently aware of the ideological consequence of the Seneca Falls conference64. According to the passage, which of the following is true of the Seneca Falls conference on women’s rights?A. It was primarily a product of nineteenth-century Saint-Simonian feminist thought.B. It was the work of American activists who were independent of feminists abroadC. It was the culminating achievement of the Utopian socialist movement.D. It was a manifestation of an international movement for social change and feminism65.It can be inferred from the passage that the author believes that study of Saint-Simonianism is necessary for.historians of American feminism because such study______________.A. would clarify the ideological origins of those feminist ideas that influenced American feminismB. would increase understanding of a movement that deeply influenced the Utopian socialism of early American.feministsC. would focus attention on the most important aspect of Saint-Simonian thought before 1832D. promises to offer insight into a movement that was a direct outgrowth of the Seneca Falls conference of 184866. According to the passage, which of the following would be the most accurate description of the society.envisioned by most Saint-Simonians?A. A society in which women were highly regarded for their extensive educationB. A society in which the two genders played complementary roles and had equal statusC. A society in which women did not enter public lifeD. A social order in which body of men and women would rule together on the basis of their spiritual power Section CDirections: Read the passage carefully.

Note that there are two more sentences than you need.How to improve efficiency when working at home?Distinguish between work and home modeOne of the biggest merits about working from home - slowly moving from bed to the sofa five minutes before you start - can also be your biggest challenge, says Eyre-White.Don’t forget that you are there to work ——(67)______________ “Switch from home to work mode,” she says, by having something you physically do to “flip the switch”.“Maybe it’s walking round the block, making a special kind of tea, or lighting a candle at your desk. It doesn’t matter what it is but do it without fail to create a strong association in your mind,” she says.Be realistic about what you can achieve“A wide, open day working from home can feel full of possibilities. 145 things on the to do list? No problem! Don't fall into the trap of being over-ambitious," says Eyre-White. Instead, she recommends being realistic and then possibly achieving more than you set out to; and feeling satisfied, rather than feeling disappointed you didn't do everything.She suggests choosing three to five things to do and aim to get the majority done before lunch.“(68)______________” she recommends.Work in short burstsIn the office your day is broken up by everything from meetings to water-cooler chats, lunch breaks and even toilet breaks, but when you are sat at home on your own with no face-to-face interaction planned it can be easy to just work for long, unbroken periods.“(69)_____________ Although this can be frustrating, they divide the day up and create natural chunks of time,” explains Eyre-White. “In contrast, a day at home can be very unstructured.”In order to be productive, she recommends imposing stricture on yourself. For example, working in 45-60 minute chunks of focused work followed by a short break.” This can be an effective way to break the day up and maintain your concentration levels,” she says.Manage distractionsBeing in an office gives us a limited number of ways to get distracted but when you start working in a new environment (especially a very familiar one) it can be easy to let yourself get distracted.“(70)_________________” says Byre-White. “So proactively manage things which might interrupt your focus.” She explains: “Keep them limited to short breaks in between chunks of focused work. A change of scene is all we need to give our brain a break, and it’s the perfect time to put a load of washing on or empty the dishwasher.”V.

Entertaining and always surprising, AQUILA is recommended because it widens children’s interest and understanding, rather than encouraging them to concentrate only on their favourite subjects. It gives children a well-rounded understanding of the world, in all its complexity.The concepts in AQUILA can be challenging, requiring good comprehension and reading skills. 8 years is usually a good age to start. Some gentle interest from an adult is often helpful at the start.In 2020 AQUILA will have been in publication for 28 years, but it has never appeared in newsstands or shops.

Given that Neil Armstrong wanted to take a football to the Moon, we could even say that it is also the most popular sport out of this world! The history of the game goes back over two thousand years to Ancient China. It was then known as cuju (kick ball), a game using a ball of animal skins with hair inside. Goals were hung in the air. Football as we know it today started inGreat Britain, where the game was given new rules.That football is such a simple game to play is perhaps the basis of its popularity. It is also a game that is very cheap to play. You don’t need expensive equipment; even the ball doesn’t have to cost much money. All over the world you can see kids playing to their hearts’ content with a ball made of plastic bags.Another factor behind football’s global popularity is the creativity and excitement on the field. It is fun enough to attract millions of people. You do not have to be a fan to recognize the skill of professional players or to feel the excitement of a game ending with a surprising twist.What’s more, football has become one of the best ways for people to communicate: it does not require words, but everyone understands it. It breaks down walls and brings people together on and off the field.“Some people believe football is a matter of life and death, ...” said Bill Shankly, the famous footballer and manager. “I can tell you with certainty it is much, much more important than that.” This might sound funny, but one only has to think about the Earth to realize that our planet is shaped like a football.4. What can we know from paragraph one?A. Some people like to play football on the Moon.B. The game called cuju was given new rules today.C. Cuju is different from football as we know it today.D. Many people like playing a ball made of plastic bags.5. According to the author, there are ________ reasons why football became so popular in the world.A. 3B. 4C. 5D. 66. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. Football is round.B. Football is more than just a sport.C. Our planet is shaped like a football.D. What Bill Shankly said sounds funny.7. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the passage?A. To talk about the history of football.B. To express his/her love of football.C. To explain why football is such a popular game.D. To prove that he/she is a professional football fan.CA student had to get his long hair cut off in a middle school in GuangDong Province. It was talked a lot among teachers and students.In fact, all schools have their own rules. In most schools, boy students are not allowed to have long hair while girls are not allowed to dye their hair. And most school rules say that students should wear their school uniforms at school. And students must obey these rules so that they can get healthy development at school.But some students have disagreements. They think that boy students having long hair doesn't mean that they are not good students. They want to show their own personality. They think that they would look cool too if they had long hair and the hairstyles like their favorite stars.A girl student thought that she would look much more beautiful if she had brown hair. So she had her dark hair dyed brown one day. When she went back to school the next day, the teacher was very angry with her. She said that she worked hard at her lessons and did well in every subject. She just didn't know why the teacher didn't allow her to dye her hair while women teachers can.It is not wrong for teenagers to love stars' hairstyles or wear their favorite clothes. However, a school has its own rules for all the students to obey so that the school can be in good order. Students should not break the rulesat school.8. What aren't boy students allowed to do in most middle schools according to this passage?A. To have long hair.B. To wear uniforms.C. To like famous stars.D. To show their own personalities.9. Why did the girl make her hair brown?A. Because she wanted to be cool.B. Because she thought that she would look much more beautiful.C. Because she wanted to make her teacher angry.D Because women teachers dyed their hair.10. What does the writer think of these school rules?A. The students should be against them.B. They are bad for students.C. They can make schools in good order.D. They can't make students grow healthily.11. What is the passage mainly about?A. Hair styles and clothes.B. Schoolboys and schoolgirls.C. Students and famous stars.D. School rules.DPaper is one of our oldest, simplest and most important inventions. But it also presents a danger to the world in two important ways. First, the making of paper requires the loss of many millions of trees each year. And worldwide use of paper is expected to double in the next 40 years. Clearly, the planet cannot stand such a high rate of forest loss. The second great problem with paper is what happens once it is no longer useful. A large amount of wastepaper ends up in landfills, where it can produce harmful gases and finally contribute to global climate change.One simple solution can greatly reduce both of these problems: paper recycling. Instead of cutting down trees, recycle existing paper to feed the paper-making process.Paper is mainly made from cellulose (纤维素),which can be used repeatedly in papermaking. Unfortunately, it also means that paper waste takes a surprisingly long time to break down in landfills. So far, trees are the only source(来源) of cellulose that can fill the great demand for paper products. Therefore, recycling paper is simply one of the best ways to save trees. Thanks to advances in processing, recycled paper need not be the dark-color1edstuff many of us are familiar with. It now can offer the same print performance as non-recycled paper.Effective recycling requires a continuous effort from everyone at all levels of society. The way to begin is with education and understanding. Once enough people realize the need for recycling, more effective recycling systems can be developed.The need is real. The massive loss of trees affects everybody on earth. Everyone should do their part to recycle paper and encourage government and industry to do the same. The world will be a better place for it!12. What can we infer from the text?A. The use of recycled paper will double in 40 years.B. Recycling paper helps relieve global climate change.C. Wastepaper can easily break down in landfills.D. There are not enough landfills for wastepaper.13. What makes recycled paper more acceptable?A. The great demand of trees.B. The low processing cost.C. Its dark-color1 ed feature.D. Its improved print performance.14. What does the author propose?A. Punishing the act of cutting trees.B. Recycling paper.C. Improving recycling system.D. Promoting paper industry.15. How is the text mainly developed?A. By analyzing causes and effects.B. By offering research plans and data.C. By discussing problems and solutions.D. By comparing strengths and weaknesses.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

But be careful what you are drinking. Something that looks cool may not be good for your health. There are plenty of “energy drinks” on the market. Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great!But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine (咖啡因) in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much. Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee (OC) has limited (限制) its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least asstrong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems. Scientists say that teenagers should be discouraged from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them.1. What does the underlined word “discouraged” in Paragraph 2 mean?A.Encouraged.B.Stopped.C.Helped.D.Disliked.2. What can we learn from the passage?A.Advertisements are important in getting people to buy energy drinks.B.Energy drinks are helpful to teenagers’ study.C.Sports players need to drink a lot of energy drinks.D.Energy drinks are especially aimed at teenagers.3.

Science can’t explain the power of pets, but many studies have shown that the company of pets can help lower blood pressure (血压) and raise chances of recovering from a heart attack, reduce loneliness and spread all-round good cheer.Any owner will tell you how much joy a pet brings. For some, an animal provides more comfort than a husband/wife. A 2002study by Karen Allen of the State University of New York measured stress (紧张) levels and blood pressure in people — half of them pet owners — while they performed 5minutes of mental arithmetic (算术) or held a hand in ice water. Subjects completed thetasks alone, with a husband/wife, a close friend or with a pet. People with pets did it best. Those tested with their animal friends had smaller change in blood pressure and returned most quickly to baseline heart rates. With pets in the room, people also made fewer math mistakes than when doing in front of other companions. It seems people feel more relaxed (放松) around pets, says Allen, who thinks it may be bec ause pets don’t judge.A study reported last fall suggests that having a pet dog not only raises your spirits but may also have an effect on your eating habits. Researchers at Northwestern Memorial Hospital spent a year studying 36 fat people and their equally fat dogs on diet-and-exercise programs; a separate group of 56 people without pets were put on a diet program. On average, people lost about 11 pounds, or 5% of their body weight. Their dogs did even better, losing an average of 12 pounds, more than 15% of their body weight. Dog owners didn’t lose any more weight than those without dogs but, say researchers, got more exercise overall — mostly with their dogs — and found it worth doing.1. What does the text mainly discuss?A.What pets bring to their owners?B.How pets help people calm down?C.People’s opinions of keeping pets.D.Pet’s value in medical research.2. We learn from the text that a person with heart disease has a better chance of getting wellif________.A.he has a pet companionB.he has less stress of workC.he often does mental arithmeticD.he is taken care of by his family3. According to Allen, why did the people do better with pets around when facing stressful tasks?A.They have lower blood pressure.B.They become more patient.C.They are less nervous.D.They are in higher spirits.4. The research mentioned in the last paragraph reports that______.A.people with dogs did more exerciseB.dogs lost the same weight as people didC.dogs liked exercise much more than people didD.people without dogs found the program unhelpful4. University-the best days of my life!I made lots of friends in my student dorm,went to great parties,joined the debating society…and,well,I did some work too--but I must admit my lecturers were very patient with my tardiness(拖拉).It's easy to look back at our university days through rose-tinted spectacles but the truth is that when we first arrived on campus,most of us were out of our comfort zone.In fact,a survey of students at Imperial College London has revealed that 3out of 4students experience high levels of stress,or a mental health condition,during their time at college.The survey,completed by over a thousand students,also found that 70% of those that experience stress do so at least once a week,and 9% of students feel stressed constantly.Kirsty,a student at Exeter University,didn't enjoy her first days in college.She says:"When I first got to university I don't think I'd realized that I'd forgotten how to make friends.I'd been with the same school friends for seven years,and so I was trying to balance social success with academic success while learning how to look after myself at quite a young age."Dr Ruth Caleb of the counseling service at Brunel University in London has some tips that should make life easier for students before they set off for university.She says:"Certain things that I think it would be very helpful for students to have put in place are an ability to do the practical things of life--to do the washing,to do the cleaning and so on-being able to cook.Budgeting is extremely important in university life."And Caleb adds:"You should learn how to spend time on your own comfortably."I graduated and learnt how to take care of myself the hard way.I hope that new students these days remember to acquire some life skills before they make the big jump.1. What did Kirsty find most difficult to do during her first days in collegeA.Not knowing how to make new friends.B.Not realizing the importance of makingfriends.C.Looking after herself at quite an earlyage.D.Trying to achieve academic success.2. Which of the following tips are helpful or important EXCEPT ______ according to Dr.Ruth CalebA.having the ability to cook B.being able to do the cleaningC.learning how to spend money on one's own D.balancing social success and academic success3. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?A.During the first few days at college for new students,most of them felt comfortable.B.According to a survey,most students at Imperial College London suffered from stress atcollege.C.The lecturers are always tolerant of college students' improper behavior.D.Acquiring some life skills isn't that important to new students.4. What does the author probably mean by saying"I graduated and learnt how to take care of myself the hard way"?A.He quickly adapted to the new environment when he first arrived on campus.B.He graduated from college with many achievements.C.It might have taken him some time to get used to college life.D.It might have made him proud by leading an independent life at college.5. iPads vs TextbooksWhat if you could have your whole backpack at the touch of your fingertips? In the first month of the Apple iPads release, 25million were sold! People all over the world use iPads for all sorts of different things, but one of their finest qualities is the ability to be a textbook. 1To begin with, iPads are less expensive. Textbooks become outdated and schools have to buy new books, but with an iPad schools can update them for free. 2 Schools don’t ha ve to spend $500 every year for iPads because they last a while and can be updated.3 Students usually have multiple classes, which results in multiple textbooks. Heavy backpacks filled with books can cause back problem. A solution to that is an iPad, which only weighs 1.33 pounds and can hold all of a student’s textbooks.Third, schools should get rid of their textbooks and get iPads because they have more capabilities. Some might think all of the apps are distracting, but the apps actually make iPads more efficient. 4 Textbooks cannot do those tasks, but iPads can easily do them with just a tap of the fingertip. Lastly, iPads are a better choice for schools instead of textbooks because these devices allow students to access their learning anywhere at any time. 5 With iPads, they find it easier to get their homework done.In conclusion, schools should get rid of their clumsy textbooks and switch to iPads. iPads have allowed this generation to have their entire backpack in the palm of their hands.6. Online deception is now so commonplace that criminal gangs are using it as part of a wider range of activities to make money out of the public. “There’s been a rapid normalisation of online as people see how _____ it can be. You see the industry adjusting to figh t against that,” says Downey, security lead at payment company Braintree.This was made _____ in May this year when there was an unparalleled attack on thousands of computer systems around the world, after a worm, named WannaCry, attacked computers in more than 150 countries, with payments of $300-$600 to restore access. There were an estimated 45,000 attacks across the UK, Russia, Ukraine, India, China, Italy, Egypt and beyond, with major companies _____.One of the reasons these attacks spread so ______ i s that businesses and consumers don’t update their software on a regular basis. Downey _____ it to a situation in which a car is left in a garage and a thief tries all of the doors to see if one has been left unlocked: “People don’t realize they are leavin g that proverbial car unlocked because they don’t understand the nature of these _____attacks.”At the heart of the problem is the ___of organized crime. “Criminals can also be an expert at business. They don’t want just one trick to bring in all of their income; it may be _____, they may have a slow month and then they’ll have a cashflow problem,” says Downey.Hacks and the threat of information theft have led to a(n)_____ of e-commerce among some of the population, says Downey. To fight that unease, simple measures need to be adopted by retailers(零售商) in order to maintain the public’s trust.______, this can be achieved by ensuring they create a trustworthy environment for consumers, such as by serving websites through SSL, which establishes a secure and connection between the ______ and business.But for both businesses and consumers, one simple thing remains ______: those who can keep both their security up to date and their passwords secure will be ahead of the crowd, says Downey. “You will then be far ahead of the curve of the average business or consumer.”So don’t use variations of one password on lots of _____. If criminals hack a database with your log-in permit, they will then be able to ____ your passwords on other accounts. Make sure your passwords have lots of characters and include numbers, symbols and capital letters.______ obvious dictionary words, and importantly make each of your passwords completely different.1.A.boring B.profitable C.dangerous D.surprising2.A.evident B.mysterious C.peculiar D.infectious3.A.updated B.transformed C.established D.infected4.A.moderately B.easily C.cautiously D.gradually5.A.compares B.implies C.devotes D.limits6.A.personal B.targeted C.random D.surprising7.A.variety B.timing C.punishment D.detection8.A.thrown away B.take in C.shut down D.carried out9.A.exhaustion B.result C.disappearance D.mistrust10.A.For example B.By comparison C.What’s more D.In summary 11.A.hacker B.customer C.retailer D.website12.A.unchanged B.varying C.unpredictable D.avoidable 13.A.curves B.characters C.dictionaries D.accounts14.A.record B.suspend C.crack D.ruin15.A.Investigate B.Consult C.Avoid D.Guarantee7. 语法填空It is known to all 1 the Chinese diet is considered to be the 2 (healthy) in the world because it 3 (contain) a lot of fruit and green vegetables.
