Everyone knows about straight-A students. We see them frequently in TV situation comedies and in movies like Revenge(复仇) of the Nerds. They get high grades, all right, but only by becoming dull laborers, their noses always stuck in a book. They are not good at social communication and look clumsy when it comes to sports.How, then, do we account for Domenica Roman or Paul Melendres?Roman is on the tennis team at Fairmont Senior High School. She also sings in the choral group, serves on the student council(学生会) and is a member of the mathematics society. For two years she has maintained A's in every subject. Melendres, now a freshman at the University of New Mexico, was student-body president at Valley High School in Albuquerque. He played soccer and basketball well, exhibited at the science fair, and meanwhile worked as a reporter on a local television station. Being a speech giver at the graduation ceremony, he achieved straight A's in his regular classes, plus bonus points for A's in two college-level courses. How do super-achievers like Roman and Melendres do it? Brains aren't the only answer. "Top grades don't always go to the brightest students," declares Herbert Walberg, professor of education at the University of Illinois at Chicago, who has conducted major studies of super-achieving students. "Knowing how to make the most of your innate(天赋的) abilities counts for more. Much more."In fact, Walberg says, students with high I.Q.s sometimes don't do as well as classmates with lower I.Q.s. For them, learning comes too easily and they never find out how to get down.Hard work isn't the whole story, either. "It's not how long you sit there with the books open," said one of the many A students we interviewed. "It's what you do while you're sitting." Indeed, some of these students actually put in fewer hours of homework time than their lower-scoring classmates.The kids at the top of the class get there by mastering a few basic techniques that others can readily learn.1.T he “n erds” can probably be __________.A.dull bookworms lacking sports and social skillsB.successful top students popular with their peersC.students with certain learning difficultiesD.born leaders crazy about social activities2.What can we conclude from the first paragraph?A.Most TV programs and films are about straight-A students.B.People have unfavorable impression of straight-A students.C.Everyone knows about straight-A students from TV or films.D.Straight-A students are well admired by people in the society.3.Some students become super-achievers mainly because ________.A.they are born cleverer than othersB.they worker longer hours on studyC.they make full use of their abilitiesD.they know the short cut to success4.What will be talked about after the last paragraph?A.The interviews with more students.B.The role I.Q. plays in learning well.C.The techniques to be better learners.D.The achievements top students make.5.What can we infer from the passage?A.Students needn’t work hard on study any more.B.The brightest students can never get top grades.C.Top students certainly achieve all-around developments.D.Students with average can become super-achievers.【参考答案】1—5 A B C C D2016高考英语阅读理解--政治经济文化类Britons may like to complain a lot, but they rarely do so right now, explains BBC writer Ruth Margolis. They would rather grumble (发牢骚) afterward. This is because Britons hate to put someone out and cause any embarrassment. Margolis writes, “For instance, I’m much more comfortable just leaving that piece of raw chicken on my plate instead of complaining to restaurant staff. But beware: if this kind of thing happens when you’re dining with an American, they will most likely speak up on your behalf and not understand why you find this ashamed.”In a BBC blog post comparing cultural differences between the UK and the US, Margolis mentions a few other things that Americans like to do that are offensive to Britons.● Not making introductionsMargolis says most Britons dislike this approach because “talking t o strangers without being introduced gives them a stomachache”. Americans rarely introduce a new friend to their friends at parties. Strangers are supposed to introduce themselves.● “Quite” goodUsing “quite” to mean “very” happens a lot in the US. But if you are invited to a dinner party in Britain, don't describe the meal as “quite good” if you want to express high praise. To Britons’ ears, “quite” detracts from the “good”: the meal was OK but could have been better.● Money TalkAmericans can talk about money subjects for hours without feeling uncomfortable. For Britons, says Margolis, “Talking about how much we make is unthinkable —even 1ess so than discussing our feelings.”● Over-politeness“It’s not that I want shop assistant s to be actively rude. But neither do I want to expend energy responding to someone who's been paid to ask: ‘How are you today?’” says Margolis. In the US, it is not unusual to be greeted by a perfect stranger as “honey” or “sweetie”. But Margolis says Britons find put-on friendliness, especially in stores, deeply irritating.【小题1】Margolis’ dining experience in Paragraph 1 shows that_______. A．Britons are particular about foodsB．Britons are not good at complainingC．Americans usually complain directlyD．Americans complain more than Britons【小题2】Which of the following might Margolis agree with?A．Britons enjoy talking about their feelings.B．Americans introduce themselves at parties.C．Americans dislike talking to strangers at parties.D．Britons feel happy if treated like close friends.【小题3】The underlined phrase “detracts from” in the text probably means ____.A．differs greatly from B．increases the quality ofC．reduces the strength of D．draws attention away from【小题4】What does the text mainly talk about?A．How to get on well with westerners.B．How to start conversations with Britons.C．Ruth Margolis’ tips on public behavior.D．Some American habits that annoy Britons.【金华十校2014高考英语模拟试题】DFor years I fought with the bird's nest that sat on top of my head-my Medusa（中的蛇发女妖） hair．No matter what I did and how hard I tried, in no way could I make my unruly （乱蓬蓬）hair to my satisfaction． Growing up in a Russian-Jewish home with parents who thought North American styling products were something illegal such as drugs, I was never allowed to put them in :my hair．¨ Why buy hair gel? Your hair is so beautiful naturally," my mother would say．The teens at school did not agree．From boys 'not wanting to kiss me when we played spin the bottle in Grade 7 to being called the mop, I suffered from my hair．When I got to university, I believed my hair was a wall that stood between me and everything-finding a part-time job, getting a boyfriend, etc．If only I could find a way to manage the curls and put it behind bars, I told myself, I would feel secure and sexy．I tried everything: rollers, hairspray, gels and, at one point, an iron．Then, in my second year, a miracle happened．I was asked to be a hair model for Japanese hair straightening, a process by which the molecules（分子）of my curls would be broken and reset in a bone-straight position．I was the perfectcandidate, the hairdresser told me． Although they said how hair relaxing could damage the :scalp （头皮）,for the next five years I didn't find them to be true． All of the hairdresser's promises were fulfilled: With my hair straight and smooth, I was no longer the¨ mop"．However, there was extreme damage done to my wallet． To keep up the straightening cost $ 700 every six months, and that was considered cheap．While some people thought I was crazy, I was willing to do anything to never again feel like that anxious, curly-headed girl in Grade 7．But when I moved out． of my parents" house 'at age 26 and rented an apartment, the upkeep of my new image became too costly．I couldn't hide from my inner Medusa any longer．It was time to hug her and let her fly．Seeking a choice, I turned to the Internet, Google．After hours of searching, I hit upon a“ curly haired" salon, a place designed for girls like me．I doubted these so-called “Curl Ambassadors" could do anythingwithout using machine of some sort, and though I bought the service called the “Curly-Doo," I suspected I'd have the same unruly mop at the end of the appointment．I dragged my feet so hard getting there that I arrived 45 minutes late． I secretly hoped they would turn me away．Instead, my stylist simply said :‘‘You are very late． Let me see your hair" At． that moment, my world and beliefs about myself were turned upside down along with my hair． As my head was in a basin full of freezing-cold water, then covered with a jelly-like jam, I wondered what I had got myself into．¨ Do you really think this will work?" I asked the stylist, Jones．“ My curls are a disaster．"“No curly hair is hopeless," she replied．“They just haven't found a way to work with it, that's all． " After the hour was over, Jones had completed her work． She had styled my hair using only her hands, water and a mixture of organic jam． I couldn't believe what I was seeing in the mirror: a naturally curly, Medusa-free me．You could argue that hair is just hair． Yet, it is just such physical features that have such a large influence on how we view ourselves．According to Jones,75 percent of the population have a wave or curl in their hair and don't know what to do with it． Men cut theirs short． Women flat-iron theirs to death． When I read through a beauty magazine or take the subway to work, it makes me sad to see so many people repressing their natural beauty．Since then, my world has changed． I have always been outgoing, but these days I seem to be more outspoken and confident than ever． On top of that, friends and co-workers tell me I am looking better than ever, but they don't know the source of the change．I don't need to tell them* My Medusa hair speaks for herself．55．What can we learn about the writer's hair in the first place?A． Her parents considered it was bird's nest．B． Teens at school laughed at it as Medusa hair．C． She hated it because it couldn't be straightened．D． North American styling products harmed her hair．56．Japanese hair straightening caused a problem for the writerthat ．A． her wish to feel secure and sexy didn't come trueB． her hair was seriously damaged after the straighteningC． the cost to keep her hair straight was too high for herD．she was called ¨the mop" with her hair straight and smooth 57．The writer was when she went to the “curly haired" salon． A． hesitated B． excited C． disappointed D． determined 58．What was the reaction of the stylist in the salon when she saw the writer?A． She was very angry because the writer was late．B． She thought totally the writer's hair was a disaster．C． She was calm and sure of her work．D． She thought there was no way to fix the writer's hair．59．The writer's world has changed because she ．A． has removed her inner MedusaB． has removed her curls on her headC． has found a way to straighten her hair in the stylish salonD． has found the admiration for her from her friends and co-workers 60．The best title of the passage can be ．A． A Successful StylistC． Road to BeautyB． My Medusa HairD． Accept the Way We Are【参考答案】55、C 56—60、CACAB2016高考英语阅读理解--政治经济文化类Amazon. com has received a patent(专利) right to send its products to customers by drone planes. The company is the largest US-based online seller of products by mail and other services. Now, the company has received a patent for its planned drone delivery system.In March, federal officials allowed Amazon to test its drone delivery plan. But even with a patent and the ability of drones to make deliveries, it does not appear the company will put its new delivery system in place any time soon.The US Patent Office published the document, which describes Amazon’s plans to use GPS to deliver products to homes and to wherever people are. The drone will use a customer’s mobile device --- usually a smartphone ---to avoid hitting people or buildings and to find a secure area to land. The company wants to deliver products within 30 minutes after people order them on its website.However, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is worried about the safety. Although it allowed Amazon to test the system, the agency said the operators must be able to see the planes. That greatly limits the delivery area.Loretta Alkalay is a professor at the Vaughn College of Aeronautics and Technology in New York. Although Amazon is not yet offering drone delivery, Professor Alkalay says it will not be long before it does. She says there are worries that the drones will hit buildings or people, or that the products and drones will be stolen or damaged by people on purpose. But she says that is because many people believe the drones would only deliver the products to the front door of a house. “However, it is possible that homes will one day have special area on their roofs designed to receive product deliveries,” she adds.【小题1】What is special about the new delivery system?A．It can deliver heavy products by plane.B．It uses planes without human operators.C．It can delivery many products at a time.D．It is much safer than other delivery ways.【小题2】The underlined word “secure” in Paragraph 3 means“__________”.A．safe B．large C．special D．empty【小题3】After reading the passage, we can infer that FAA__________ A．doesn’t really like AmazonB．totally support the drone delivery system C．doesn’t think Amazon should get the patent D．doubts about the drone delivery system。

高考英语一轮复习 Unit4 Earthquakes阅读理解全方位训练11
入舵市安恙阳光实验学校高考英语一轮复习全方位配套训练人教版必修一Unit 4 Earthquakes阅读理解1第Ⅰ组AEveryone has heard of the San Andreas fault （断层），which constantly threatens California and the West Coast with earthquakes.But how many people know about the equally serious New Madrid fault in Missouri? Between December of 1811 and February of 1812，three major earthquakes occurred，all centered around the town of New Madrid，Missouri，on the Mississippi River.Property damage was severe.Buildings in the area were almost destroyed.Whole forests fell at once，and huge cracks opened in the ground，releasing some strong smell chemicals.The Mississippi River itself completely changed character，developing sudden rapids and whirlpools（激流和漩涡）.Several times it changed its course，and once，according to some observers，it actually appeared to run backwards.Few people were killed in the New Madrid earthquakes，probably simply because few people lived in the area in 1811；but the severity of the earthquakes was shown by the fact that the shock waves rang bells in church towers in Charleston，South Carolina，on the coast.Buildings shook in New York City，and clocks were stopped in Washington，D.C.Scientists now know that America’s two major faults are essentially different.The San Andreas is a horizontal （水平的） boundary between two major land masses that are slowly moving in oppositedirections.California earthquakes result when the two masses make a sudden move.The New Madrid fault，on the other hand，is a vertical fault；at some point，possibly hundreds of millions of years ago，rock was pushed up toward the surface，probably by volcanoes under the surface.Suddenly，the volcanoes cooled and the rock collapsed，leaving huge cracks.Even now，the rock continues to settle downwards，and sudden sinking motions cause earthquakes in the region.The fault itself，a large crack in this layer of rock，with dozens of other cracks that split off from it，extends from northeast Arkansas through Missouri and into southern Illinois. Scientists who have studied the New Madrid fault say there have been numerous smaller quakes in the area since 1811；these smaller quakes indicate that larger ones are probably coming，but the scientists say they have no method of predicting when a large earthquake will occur.1.This passage is mainly about .A.the New Madrid faultB.the San AndreasC.the causes of faultsD.current scientific knowledge about faults2.Which of the following pictures best describes the type of the NewMadrid fault?3.This passage implies that .A.horizontal faults are more dangerous than vertical faultsB.vertical faults are more dangerous than horizontal faultsC.a lot of people would die if the 1811 New Madrid earthquakes happened todayD.the volcanoes that caused the New Madrid fault are still alive【语篇解读】本文通过历史回顾和科学分析，提醒人们多关注New Madrid地区频繁的地震。

考例分析：D【2022·全国高考乙卷】The Government's sugar tax on soft drinks has brought in half as much money as Ministers first predicted it would generate, the first official data on the policy has shown.First announced in April, 2016, the tax which applies to soft drinks containing more than 5g of sugar per100ml, was introduced to help reduce childhood obesity（肥胖）. It is believed that today's children and teenagers are consuming three times the recommended level of sugar, putting them at a higher risk of the disease.Initially the sugar tax was expected to make £520m a year for the Treasury. However, data of the first sixmonths showed it would make less than half this amount. At present it is expected to generate £240m for the year ending in April 2019, which will go to school sports.It comes after more than half of soft drinks sold in shops have had their sugar levels cut by manufacturers（制造商）so they can avoid paying the tax. Drinks now contain 45 million fewer kilos of sugar as a result of manufacturers' efforts to avoid the charge, according to Treasury figures. Since April drinks companies have been forced to pay between 18p and 24p for every litre of sugary drink they produce or import, depending on the sugar content.However, some high sugar brands, like Classic Coca Cola, have accepted the sugar tax and are refusing to change for fear of upsetting consumers. Fruit juices, milk-based drinks and most alcoholic drinks are free of the tax, as are small companies manufacturing fewer than 1m litres per year.Today's figures, according to one government official, show the positive influence the sugar tax is having by raising millions of pounds for sports facilities（设施）and healthier eating in schools. Helping the next generation to have a healthy and active childhood is of great importance, and the industry is playing its part.15. What can be inferred about the adoption of the sugar tax policy?A. It is a short-sighted decision.B. It is a success story.C. It benefits manufacturers.D. It upsets customers.【答案】15. B【解析】本文是一篇说明文。

一轮复习高考英语专题复习阅读理解(附答案)一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读理解Eating red meat is linked to cancer and heart disease, but are the risks big enough to justify giving up juicy burgers and delicious steaks? Probably not, according to researchers who reviewed data from 12 clinical trials involving about 54,000 people. In a series of controversial papers, the researchers argue that the increased health risks tied to red meat are small and uncertain, and that cutting back likely wouldn't be worth it for people who enjoy meat.Those conclusions go against established medical advice. They were swiftly attacked by a group of famous U.S. scientists who took the unusual step of trying to stop the papers from being published until their criticisms were addressed.The new work does not say red or processed meats like hot dogs and bacon are healthy, or that people should eat more of them. The team's reviews of past studies generally support the ties to cancer, heart disease and other bad health outcomes. But the authors say the evidence is weak, and that there's not much certainty meat is really the cause, since other diet and lifestyle factors could be at play.If the latest example of how divisive nutrition research has become, with its uncertainties leaving the door open for conflicting advice. Critics say findings often aren't backed by strong evidence. Defenders counter that nutrition studies can rarely be conclusive because of the difficulty of measuring the effects of any single food, but that methods have improved.Based on their analyses, the researchers said people do not have to cut back for health reasons. But they noted that their own advice is weak, and acknowledged that they didn't consider factors such as animal welfare and the environment. Indeed, the case that meat production is bad for animal welfare and the environment is stronger than the case that it's bad for human health, according to an editorial that accompanies the report.Not all of the report authors agreed with its conclusions. Three of the 14 researchers said they support reducing red and processed meats. A coauthor of one of the reviews is also among those who called for a publication delay.Those who pushed to postpone publication also questioned why certain studies were included in the reviews while others were left out.As for his own diet, Dr. Gordon Guyatt, a member of the international research team that conducted the reviews, said he no longer thinks red or processed meats have significant health risks. But he said he still avoids them out of habit, and for animal welfare and environmental reasons.（1）What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?A.To introduce a new relationship between health and eating red meat.B.To urge more people to keep away from eating red meat regularly.C.To present a new controversial view on impacts of eating red meat.D.To criticize nutrition studies for lacking of conclusive evidence.（2）What is the author's attitude towards the new research?A.Doubtful.B.Positive.C.Disapproving.D.Objective.（3）Guyatt's avoiding red meats has the weakest connection with_______.A.health risksB.diet habitsC.animal welfareD.environmental protection（4）What can we learn from the recent research?A.Red meats don't have significant health risks.B.Reducing meat consumption will be worth it.C.The report authors have reached a consensus.D.Consuming red meat will do good to health.【答案】（1）C（2）D（3）A（4）A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文，作者对于吃红肉是否与癌症和心脏病有关引用了研究发现、结果、例子等客观数据和事实来写这篇文章。

Now scientists believe that global warmingaffects hibernating animals, causing them to wake upearlier. While this may seem a little concern, it isin fact a significant environmental problem. Theshortened hibernation period could actually lead tosignificant declines in the population of severalspecies.Some of the first concrete evidence of the phenomenon came from Colorado, where researchers at the Rocky Mountain Biological lab have been observing marmot(旱獭)hibernation behavior since the 1970s. In the early days of their studies, marmots generally hibernated several weeks into the month of May. Nowadays, however, temperatures in the area have risen by 2. 5 degrees Fahrenheit, and the marmots wake up about a month earlier.At least the marmots are still hibernating. Several other animals have not been hibernating at all recently. Brown bears in the Spanish Cantabrian Mountains did not hibernate last year. In parts of the United States, chipmunks(花鼠)also skipped the hibernation period. The bears seem to have survived without losing many individuals. The chipmunks, however, were not so lucky. Many of the animals died of starvation during the winter.The problem with animals waking up early, or skipping hibernation altogether, lies with the creatures’metabolism(新陈代谢). When the animals hibernate, their metabolism drops significantly. The animals’heart rate slows, and they require very little energy to live. When the animals awake from their winter slumber, their metabolism returns to normal.But while their m etabolism may be as active as it was before hibernation, food sources aren’t as available as they were before. A marmot may wake up when temperatures get warmer, thinking it’s spr ing, but plants will not have got the amount of sun they need to signal their spring period of growth. So until the plants grow, the marmots have no reliable food source.Many scientists believe the problem will continue to get worse. In addition to changes in hibernation patterns, some believe that other animals will also begin to change their migration patterns or begin to give birth earlier. For many biologists, that’s a scary prospect. TerryRoot, an animal expert at Stanford University, said, “I do th ink what we will be facing is the extinction of many species. ”【文章大意】全球变暖带来的连锁反应是多方面的, 其中之一就是导致一些冬眠动物的冬眠期缩短, 这会给这些动物带来巨大的影响。

Mr. Thibault has a number of tips to help travelers manage in a destination when they don't speak the native tongue, based on his own experience. Here are a few of them.●Download a Language Translation AppMr. Thibault tends to rely on Google Translate and suggests that travelers find an app that works for them. Ideally, find one that specializes in the language you need to translate especially if the language uses a character set you're not familiar with, or have difficulty pronouncing.●Speak with Your Hands and HeadPointing with your hands and nodding or shaking your head, Mr. Thibault said, are easy ways to municate with locals in the country you're in. “Gestures are all universally understood，” he said.●Learn a Few Key WordsKnowing basic words and phrases like “hello”，“thank you” and “I'm sorry, I don't speak your language. Do you speak English？” is a must, Mr. Thibault said. Showing that you care enough to learn some of the language before you go, and at least enough to acknowledge that you don't know more, is a form of respect and will go a long way to be liked by locals.●Work with a Local Travel AgentIf you feel particularly unfortable in the country you're headed to, and you have to go anyway, relying on a local travel agent who knows both your and your destination's languages can be incredibly useful.●Hire a Local Tour GuideA tour guide can help you get a better grasp of the local language and is a good person to practice words and phrases with. Whenever Mr. Thibault visits a new country, he books a sightseeing tour with a guide on the first day of his trip. “I use this day to learn about my destination and get familiar with the language，” he said.语篇解读：本文是一篇应用文，针对不会说外语的旅行者到国外旅游提出了几条建议，包括翻译软件、使用肢体语言、出发前学习关键词、利用当地旅行社的帮助以及雇用当地导游。

They already guide blind and disabled people; now dogs are to be trained to help people with dementia（痴呆） or Alzheimer's．Alzheimer's can make people confuse night and day or forget basic things such as washing or drinking enough water．The dogs will be trained to respond to sound triggers（触发器） in the home that cause them to perform tasks．The duties will include reminding their owners to take medicine, as well as encouraging them to eat, drink and sleep regularly．The idea was developed by design students at the Glasgow School of Art and will now be put into practice by Alzheimer's Scotland and Dogs for the Disabled．The first dogs will be distributed to four Scottish couples, where one of the partners is in the early stages of dementia．Some 670,000 people in Britain have dementia and one in three over 65s will develop the condition．By 2021 this is expected to rise to one million．Joyce Gray of Alzheimer's Scotland said, "People in the early stages of dementia are still able to live a relatively normal life, and dogs help to maintain routine．" Another advantage of using the pets as companions is that dogs can give them a sense of silent support and companionship．Ms Gray said, "The evidence is that people may forget familiar faces but not pets．It's such a strong bond that people often remember them longest．People don't need to communicate verbally （言语地） but they can still interact．You can have a speechless bond．"Helen McCain, director of Dogs for the Disabled, said, "People with dementia often forget to take the medicine．If a dog presents them with a bag with pills in it there's a greater chance of them taking it．The dog would also encourage the owner to take them out for walks, ensuring they keep exercising and interacting with other people．"1．In Britain people with dementia _ _．A．are likely to increase in number B．are mostly over 65 years oldC．will be trained to respond to sound triggers D．will be able to live a relatively normal life2．The dogs are taught to perform tasks by -．A．making some sound signals B．communicating with the patientsC．reminding the patients by barking D．reacting to some sound triggers3．What does the underlined word "them" in Paragraph 4 refer to?A．Faces．B．Triggers．C．Pets．D．Companions．4．What is mainly talked about in the passage?A．The idea of dementia dogs was developed by students．B．Dogs are trained to assist Alzheimer's patients．C．British people with Alzheimer's are in poor condition．D．The dementia dogs perform most duties of a doctor．参考答案1—4、BCBD说理议论（阅读理解）由 (2013福建,D)改编Pride and Prejudice for the Modern WomanLet us imagine how Pride and Prejudice,Jane Austen’s most famous work,might be updated,200 years on.Austen’s popularity is rooted in her intelligence.But today she would certainly have had a very different life,as would her characters.Here’s my own suggestion...It is a truth finally and universally acknowledged that a single woman with brains deserves to have equal opportunities to men,however disadvantaged she may feel by sexism.“ My dear husband,” said his hopeful wife one day,“ have you heard that the local store,standing empty for so long,is taken over by a bright young businesswoman?”Her dull and indifferent (漠不关心的) husband replied that he had not.“But it is,it is,” she replied excitedly.Mr Dull-Husband made no reply.“Don’t you want to know her plans?” she cried with some impatience.“Well,clearly you think it matters to your silly little head...so I’d better listen.”“Well,my dear,the rumour (传言) is that she has already set up a string of successful businesses in northern England,though how a woman can know anything about that is beyond me.She will move in herself next month.”“What is her name?”“Bingley.”“Is she married or single?”“What a question! And none of your business.But her coming will be a fine thing for our five boys.”“How so? How can it possibly affect them? ”“My dear love: those lazy boys need something to wake them up.There are bound to be jobs going.”“ Is that her point in settling here? Surely as a woman she has simply taken a fancy to the place.”“ Nonsense,my love,how little you’ve noticed the world has changed.She’s got a first-rate degree and some sort of business qualification,I’m told.She surely needs one of our boys! Perhaps you might give her a call.”“ Me? No.Perhaps you can take an interest.You still have your looks,after all.She may even offer you a job.”“Oh,that’s not like ly.These new chances belong to the younger generation.But now you mention it,I think I’ll go along all the same.”And Mrs Bennet went along.That was 10 years ago.She is now managing director of a FTSE-listed company....It would remain the case,of course,that Mrs Bennet would be one of very few women on the company board,that her salary would be lower than her male colleagues,her bonus of a more “female” dimension and her lifespan (年限) among the city’s business leaders shorter than theirs.Still,she’d no dou bt have enjoyed Davos—and might even have hobnobbed (攀谈) with influential figures.1.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?( )A.Austen was born 200 years ago.B.Austen rewrote Pride and Prejudice.C.Austen’s success lies in her wisdom.D.Austen’s updated work gains popularity.2.The underlined part in the passage suggests that Mrs Bennet . A.had mixed feelings of admiration and surprise about BingleyB.felt kind of worried and doubtful about BingleyC.was extremely anxious to meet BingleyD.had a great curiosity about Bingley3.In the eyes of Mrs Bennet,Bingley surely needed one of their boys to .A.get married toB.work for herC.help her move inD.take over her store4.What does the writer intend to tell us?( )A.Women with brains can also be as successful as men.B.Women have to pay a high price for success.C.A judgment must be made free from prejudice.D.Sex discrimination still exists nowadays.语篇解读:英国著名小说家简·奥斯汀的《傲慢与偏见》批判了性别歧视观念。

Few laws are so effective that you can see results just days after they take effect.But in the nine days since the federal cigarette tax more than doubled－to $1.01 per pack－smokers have jammed telephone “quit lines” across the country seeking to kick the habit.This is not a surprise to public health advocates.They've studied the effect of state tax increases for years，finding that smokers，especially teens，are price sensitive.Nor is it a shock to the industry，which fiercely fights every tax increase.The only wonder is that so many states insist on closing their ears to the message.Tobacco taxes improve public health，they raise money and most particularly，they deter people from taking up the habit as teens，which is when nearly all smokers are addicted.Yet the rate of taxation varies widely.In Manhattan，for instance，which has the highest tax in the nation，a pack of Marlboro Light Kings，cost $10.06 at one drugstore Wednesday.In Charleston，S.C.，where the 7 cent a pack tax is the lowest in the nation，the price was $4.78.The influence is obvious.In New York，high school smoking hit a new low in the latest surveys－13.8%，far below the national average.By comparison,26% of high school students smoke in Kentucky.Other low tax states have similarly depressing teen smoking records.Hal Rogers，Representative from Kentucky，like those who are against high tobacco taxes，argues that the burden of the tax falls onlow income Americans “who choose to smoke.”That's true.But there is more reason in keeping future generations of low income workers from getting hooked in the first place.As for today's adults，if the new tax drives them to quit，they will have more to spend on their families，cut their risk of cancer and heart disease and feel better.【语篇解读】烟草税增加后，取得了立竿见影的效果——许多烟民纷纷戒烟。

With all the wars, fighting and sadness in the world today, it's not only necessary, but also essential to have a good sense of humor just to help us get through each and every day of our lives. Putting a smile on someone's face when you know they are feeling down in the dump, makes me feel good and warms my heart.How would you feel if you could not joke around with your wife, husband, child, co-worker, neighbor, close friends, or even just someone that you are standing in line with at your corner store? I am always saying things that make others smile or laugh, even if I don't know the person I'm joking around with. My Grandma always found humor in everything she did, even if it was the hardest job anyone could imagine. This not only relieves stress in any situation, but also is common courtesy(礼貌)to speak to others that are around you.I know of a few people that don't have a funny bone in their bodies, as they say.Everyone around them could be rolling on the floor after hearing a great joke and they would sit there without the slightest smile on their face.They don't get the joke that makes others laugh. I am busting__a__gut while they just sit there, looking at me as if I were from outer space.How can people not get a really funny joke?Laughing is essential to keep your stress levels under control. Without humor we would find ourselves with a lot of psychological problems, or on a lot of medications to keep us from going crazy. There is too much sadness in this present world. It drives people crazy. We all need to find a way to ignore the sadness and bring a little light into our lives.
