2015年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试(上海卷)III. Reading ComprehensionSection AIf you studied pictures that ancient people left on rock walls and you tried to determine their meaning, you would not detect interest in romance among the artists. 51 , you would see plenty of animals with people running after them. Life for ancient people’s earned to center on hunting and gathering wild foods for meals.In modern times, when food is available in grocery stores, finding love is more 52 to people’s lives. The 53 is all around us. It is easy to prepare a list of modern stories having to do with love. An endless number of books and movies qualify as love stories in popular culture.Researchers are studying whether love, a highly valued emotional state, can be 54 . They ask, what is love? Toothpaste companies want us to think attraction is all about clean teeth, but clean teeth go only so far. Scientists wonder how much the brain gets involved. You have probably heard that opposites attract but that 55 attract, too. One thing is certain: The truth about love is not yet set in stone.First ImpressionTo help determine the 56 of attraction, researchers paired 164 college classmates and had them talk for 3, 6 or 10 minutes so they could get a sense of each other’s individuality. Then students were asked to 57 what kind of relationship they were likely to build with their partners. After nine weeks, they reported what happened.As it turned out, their 58 judgements often held true. Students seemed to 59 at an early stage who would best fit into their lives.The 60 KnowsScientists have also turned to nonhumans to increase understanding of attraction. Many animals give off pheromones — natural chemicals that can be detected by, and then can produce a response in, other animals of the same species. Pheromones can signal that an animal is either ready to fight or is feeling 61 to partnerships. In contrast, humans do not seem to be as 62 as other animals at detecting such chemicals. Smell, however, does seem to play a part in human attraction. Although we may not be aware of chemicals like pheromones consciously, we give and receive loads of information through smell in every interaction with other people.Face ValueBeing fond of someone seems to have a number of factors, including seeing something we find attractive. Researchers had people judge faces for 63 . The participants had 0.013 seconds to view each face, yet somehow they generally considered the images the same as people who had more time to study the same faces. The way we 64 attractiveness seem to be somewhat automatic.When shown an attractive face and then words with good or bad associations, people responded to 65 words faster after viewing an attractive face. Seeing something attractive seems to cause happy thinking.51. A. Instead B. Therefore C. Moreover D. Otherwise52. A. romantic B. stressful C. central D. artificial53.

IrritatingSection B(A)Look to many of history’s cultural symbols, and there you’ll find an ancestor of Frosty, the snowman in themovie Frozen. It appeared on some of the first postcards, starred in some of the earliest silent movies, and was the subject of a couple of the earliest photos, dating all the way back to the 1800s. I discovered even more about one of humanity’s earliest forms o f life art during several years of research around the world.For example, snowmen were a phenomenon in the Middle Ages, built with great skill and thought. At a time of limited means of expression, snow was like free art supplies dropped from the sky. It was a popular activity for couples to leisurely walk through town to view the temporary works of chilly art. Some were created by famous artists, including a 19-year-old Michelangelo, who in 1494 was appointed by the ruler of Florence, Italy, to build a snowman in his mansion’s courtyard.The Miracle of 1511 took place during six freezing works called the Winter of Death. The city of Brussels was covered in snowmen—an impressive scene that told stories on every street corner. Some were political in nature, criticizing the church and government. Some were a reflection of people’s imagination. For the people of Brussels, this was a defining moment of defining freedom. At least until spring arrived, by which time they were dealing with damaging floods.If you fear the heyday of the snowman has passed, don’t worry: I’ve learned that some explosive snowman history is still being made today. Every year since 1818, the people of Zurich, Switzerland, celebrate the beginning of spring by blowing up a snowman. On the third Monday of April, the holiday Sechselauten is kicked off when a cotton snowman called the Boogg is stuffed with explosive and paraded through town by bakers and other tradesmen who throw bread to the crowds. The parade ends with the Boogg being placed on a 40-foot pile of firewood. After the bells of the Church of St. Peter have rung six times, representing the passing of winter, the pile is lit. When the snowman explodes, winter is considered officially over—the quicker it is burnt down, the longer summer is said to be.66. According to the passage, why did snowmen become a phenomenon in the Middle Ages?A. People thought of snow as holy art supplies.B. People longed to see masterpieces of snow.C. Building snowmen was a way for people to express themselves.D. Building snowmen helped people develop their skill and thought.67. “The heyday of the snowman” (paragraph 4) means the time when___________.A. snowmen were made mainly by artistsB. snowmen enjoyed great popularityC. snowmen were politically criticizedD. snowmen caused damaging floods68. In Zurich, the blowing up of the Boogg symbolizes__________________.A. the start of the paradeB. the coming of a longer summerC. the passing of the winterD. the success of tradesmen69. What can be concluded about snowmen from the passage?A. They were appreciated in historyB. They have lost their valueC. They were related to moviesD. They vary in shape and size(B)The Curse of the Were-Rabbit(2005) is the first full-length featurefilm made by directors Nick Park and Steve Box with their amazingplasticine(2006, and if you watch it, you’ll understand why. It’s anbrilliant cartoon comedy.Cheese-loving inventor Wallace and his brainy dog Gromit havestarted a company to protect the town’s vegetables from hungryrabbits. However, just before the annual Giant VegetableCompetition, an enormous rabbit begins terrorising the town. It isattacking all the vegetables and destroying everything in its path.The competition organizer, Lady Tottington, hires Wallace andGromit to catch the monster alive. But they will have to find thewere-rabbit before gun-crazy hunter Victor Quartermaine who isdesperate to kill it.The screenplay is witty and full of amusing visual jokes. As usual,the voice of Peter Sallis is absolutely perfect for the role of Wallace,and Gromit is so beautifully brought to life, he can express a hugerange of emotions without saying a word. And both HelenaBonham-Carter, who plays the part of Lady Tottington, and RalphFiennes as Victor are really funny.To sum up, The Curse of the Were-Rabbit is an amazing film whichis suitable for both children and adults. If you liked Wallace andGromit’shumour, you’ll love this film. Don’t miss it!70. In the film review, what is paragraph A mainly about?A. The introduction to the leading rolesB. The writer’s opinion o f actingC. The writer’s comments on the storyD. The background information71. According to the film review, “monster” (paragraph B) refers to ______.A. a gun-crazy hunterB. a brainy dogC. a scary rabbitD. a giant vegetable72.

It is an adventure film directed by Peter Sallis.D. It is about the harmony between man and animals.(C)One of the executives gathered at the Aspen Institute for a day-long leadership workshop using the works of Shakespeare was discussing the rol e of Brutus in the death of Julius Caesar. “Brutus was not an honorable man,” he said. “He was a traitor(叛徒). And he murdered someone in cold blood.” The agreement was that Brutus had acted with cruelty when other options were available to him. He made a bad decision, they said—at least as it was presented by Shakespeare—to take the lead in murdering Julius Caesar. And though one of the executives acknowledged that Brutus had the good of the republic in mind, Caesar was nevertheless his superior. “You have to endeavor,” the executives said, “our policy is to obey the chain of command.”During the last few years, business executives and book writers looking for a new way to advise corporateAmerica have been exploiting Shakespeare’s wisdom for profitable ends. None more so than husband and wife team Kenneth and Carol Adelman, well-known advisers to the White House, who started up a training company called “Movers and Shakespeares”. They are amateur Shakespeare scholars and Shakespeare lovers, and they have combined their passion and their high level contacts into a management training business. They conduct between 30 and 40 workshops annually, focusing on half a dozen different plays, mostly for corporations, but also for government agencies.The workshops all take the same form, focusing on a single play as a kind of case study, and using individual scenes as specific lessons. In Julius Caesar , sly provocation(狡诈的挑唆)of Brutus to take up arms against the what was a basis for a discussion of methods of team building and grass roots organism.Although neither of the Adelmans is academically trained in literature, the programmes, contain plenty of Shakespeare tradition and background. Their workshop on Henry V, for example, includes a helpful explanation of Henry’s winning strategy at the Battle of Agincourt. But they do come to the text with a few biases (偏向): their reading of Henry V minimizes his misuse of power. Instead, they emphasize the story of the youth who seizes opportunity and becomes a masterful leader. And at the workshop on Caesar, Mr. Adelmans had little good to say about Brutus, saying “the noblest Roman of them all” couldn’t make his mind up about things.Many of the participants pointed to very specific elements in the play that t hey felt related Caesar’s pride, which led to his murder, and Brutus’s mistakes in leading the after the murder, they said, raise vital questions for anyone serving as a business when and how do you resist the boss?73. According to paragraph 1, what did all the executives think of Brutus?A. Cruel.B. Superior.C. Honorable.D. Bade74. According to the passage, the Adelmans set up “Movers and Shakespeares” to ________.A. help executives to understand Sha kespeare’s plays betterB. give advice on leadership by analyzing Shakespeare’s playsC. provide case studies of Shakespeare’s plays in literature workshopsD. guide government agencies to follow the characters in Shakespeare’s plays.75. Why do the Adelmans conduct a workshop on Henry V?A. To highlight the importance of catching opportunities.B. To encourage masterful leaders to plan strategies to win.C. To illustrate the harm of prejudices in management.D. To warn executives against power misuse.76. It can be inferred from the passage that ____.A. the Adelmans’ programme proves biased as the roles of characters are maximized.B. executives feel bored with too many specific elements of Shakespeare’s plays.C. the Adelmans will make more profits if they are professional scholars.D. Shakespeare has played an important role in the management field.77. The best title for the passage is _____.A. Shakespeare’s plays: Executives reconsider corporate cultureB. S hakespeare’s plays: An essential key to business successC. Shakespeare’s plays: a lesson for business motivationD. Shakespeare’s plays: Dramatic training brings dramatic resultsI.

This anxiety can 41 itself in physical symptoms like nausea or sweaty palms, or in emotional symptoms like panic and irritability. Often, individuals will become nervous long before the exam date because they feel 42 by the amount of material they must master. The firststep in 43 this anxiety is realizing that test anxiety is a natural reaction, and that it can be 44 . In order to regain control over anxiety, one should break the exam 45 into smaller sections. It will seem much easier to master a series of small subjects than to handle a huge subject all at once.Test-takers should make a study schedule weeks or months ahead of the exam, and give themselves a small amount to learn each period. When the exam day 46 arrives, anxiety will be reduced by the feeling of preparedness. Apart from that, anxiety can be lessened in a few easy ways. First, avoid having any excessively stimulating foods, such as those 47 caffeine or sugar, on the day of the exam. Getting a good night's sleep and a little bit of exercise will 48 one's brain and allow for easy 49 of the learned material. During the exam, breathe deeply and sit in a comfortable position. On exams where this is possible, many people find comfort in going through and answering all of the easy questions before 50 the more difficult ones.III. Reading ComprehensionSection 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 or phrase that best fits the context.Leadership is a word getting a lot of attention these days. It appears in the title of new advice, how-to, and business books with amazing 51 . Definitions vary, but most of the ones I’ve seen don’t help much. It’s a totally 52 subject You think A is a great leader; I like B’s 53 better. That is, you may not be able to 54 it, but you know it when you see it.So this is my take on the elusive (难以捉摸的) conceptYears ago, leadership had 55 to do with a specific ability. “Leader” was the56 given to the emperor of the organization. The person was the commander, the 57 with complete control. But 58 there is another way to establish yourself as a leader.Here is my definition Leadership is the ability to get others to do what you want, need, or expect them to do, and feel good about doing it. It is the 59 part (feeling good about doing it) that is so elusive.If I am in charge, I can certainly demand you do what I expect you to do and insist you get it done. I can give orders. 60 , I am the boss, and everyone knows what that means. It is a sure way to destroy the atmosphere of the 61 .Today, I believe that approach is on the way 62 , although it will always be with us. When people hate the boss, sure, the boss is called “leader”—but not a good one, because the followers are an unhappy bunch. If they had another, 63 job to go to, they would be gone in a minute.Here is a list of the qualities I believe it 64 to be a good leader 1. Likable; 2. Trustworthy; 3. Competent and experienced;4. Part of the team;5. Able and willing to participate;6. Ready to 65 ;7. Adaptable to change;8. Eager to share credit.51. A. activity B. regularity C. reality D. sensitivity52.

Then she imagined, orthought she imagined, a faint smell of smoke around her nostrils (鼻孔). What was strange, though, was the very fact that she was wide awake and, according to her bedside clock, it was only a quarter to four.She sat up, listening, alert. There was definitely a smell of burning. Rising quickly, she crossed to the window and opened it quietly, thinking it would be the remains of some garden bonfire. But it wasn’t. She saw smoke and flam es billowing out of a downstairs window next door.Barefoot and in pyjamas, she ran first to her parents’ room, opening their door to call, “Mum! Dad! There’s a fire next door!”Downstairs in a flash, she hurriedly dialed 999 and gave her name and address in clear, brief tones. By the time she had finished, Graeme, her elder brother, was coming running downstairs.“You go to their front door—I’ll go to the back,” she said to him.As she banged on their neighbors’ back door, she could hear a child crying in fear. Without stopping to think, Rhona lifted the large doorstop and smashed it through a glass panel, put her hand in and turned the key which opened the door.Through the smoke she saw a drying screen hung with white washing and she grabbed at as many of the damp clothes as she could on her way past towards the stairs. Halfway up she met Mr Parker carrying the baby and she hurriedly gave him some wet towels before doing the same for Mrs Parker who was behind him leading two-year-old Clare by the hand.“Crouch down as low as you can,” Rhona directed them as she took the child’s other hand. Within a matter of seconds the family was safely outside.66.

In a tourist guidebook.(C)Since ninety-eight percent of Hong Kong people are Chinese, half of them from Mainland China who know little English, thereseems to be no valid reason why Chinese should not be one of the official languages of Hong Kong.Generally, none-English speaking Chinese make out very well. It is mostly the courts that they experienced any great difficulty –Hong Kong’s law and court proceedings are in English – because, apparently, not sufficient attention is given to translating laws and procedures into Chinese.One other difficulty lies in the field of official communication –from Government offices. It seems no more than reasonable that such communications addressed to Chinese people should be in both Chinese and English.The Chinese Language Committee has, in its four reports to Government, proposed that the Chinese language should have equal status with the English language in meetings of the Legislative Council, the Urban Council and Government Boards and Committees; in oral and written communications between Government and the public; in court-proceedings and the language of the law; and in the Hong Kong School Certificate of Education Examinations – all that by 1974 or 1975.The key-word in the recommendation is status, as Judge T.L. Yang, Chairman of the Legal Sub-committee of the government-appointed Chinese Language Committee, pointed out. He is not happy with the term Fat Ting U Men which the Committee adopted to indicate the official status of the Chinese language. His Honor preferred Kun Fong U Men, meaning a language used by the government.In other words, such official language, whether Chinese or English, need not necessarily be used in every instance. Consequently, situations may occur in which only Chinese is used by the government and, again, othercommunication situations in which only English is used. As one Chinese newspaper editorial pointed out, equal status does not necessarily mean equal use – whether in law or any other official communication.The result of the Chinese Language Committee’s four Reports seems to be that Chinese and English are now used in the Urban Council and the Legislative Council meetings and are likely to be used shortly in other circumstances prospected by that Committee. Let it be noted, however, that in Hong Kong, as everywhere else, new ideas take hold very slowly –unless pressure is exerted from some quarter or another.For instance, after the demonstrations by post-secondary students in favor of Chinese as an official language, Government communicated with the public in both Chinese and English. However, when such communication appeared in writing, the Chinese translation was often so inadequate that the receivers, if they were able, read the English to understand the meaning of the Chinese.74. According to the writer, Chinese should be made an official language because ________.A. most Hong Kong citizens have an adequate command of ChineseB. some Hong Kong citizens find considerable difficulty in legal languageC. the population of Hong Kong is predominantly ChineseD. the national pride of the Hong Kong Chinese urges them to demand it.75. The main idea of the sixth paragraph is that ________.A. equal status of English and Chinese means equal useB. only Chinese should be used in official communicationC. both English and Chinese should be employed in all official communicationD. both English and Chinese or either language should be used as the situation demands76. The phrase or word nearest in meaning to take hold in the seventh paragraph is ________.A. fasten upon the mindB. graspC. are rejectedD. are accepted77. The writer, in his conclusion, implies that ________.A. the government will be forced to accept Chinese as an official languageB. good translators are definitely inadequate in Hong KongC. many difficulties will arise from translating English into ChineseD. a person has to be bilingual (双语的) before he understands translations in Chinese(D)Sunshine might be healthier than most people think, outweighing the risk of skin cancer. British doctors suggested last week and ran straight into a storm. The four researchers at Bristol University in western England were accused of weakening years of campaigning to warn people of the dangers of too much sun. Exper ts agree exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet rays (紫外线) increases the risk of skin cancer and accelerates the signs of aging. But in the British Medical Journal, the Bristol team led by Andrew Ness wrote, “There is evidence that the potential benefits of exposure to sunlight may outweigh the widely publicized negative effects on the incidence of skin cancer.”Vitamin D, made in the body in reaction to sunlight, prevented rickets (软骨病) in children and was associated with aprotective effect against heart disease.Sunshine was also useful for treating certain skin conditions and there was evidence that it reduced the incidence of multiple sclerosis (硬化症). There was also the “feel good effect of lying or sitting in the sun.” The researchers said it was too earl y to advise people to spend more time in the sun, but suggested the basis of the current advice to cover up should be reviewed.“Perhaps, while we await the conclusions of such formal analyses, those of us who enjoy spending time in the sun can rest assured that the chance that we will be one of the people dying from the sun is small.” they added.Their article was strongly criticized by health campaigners who claimed it was unbalanced and not backed by scientific evidence. Britain’s Health Education Auth ority said skin cancer was the most common form of cancer in the country, with more than 50,000 new cases diagnosed each year and more than 2,000 people dying from the disease. It said treatment almost always required surgery and almost 50 per cent of cases were fatal. The authority’s skin cancer campaign manager Christopher New said, “We are very disappointed with this controversial article. It doesn’t have enough supporting evidence and runs the risk of undoing many years of good health education.”(Note Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS)78.

2015年上海高考英语作文解析
2015年上海高考英语作文解析,及,作文范文II. Guided Writing (25分)Directions: Write an English composition in 120–150 words according to the instructions given below in Chinese.学校即将举办“读书节”,目前正广泛征集“读书节”宣传册图片。
假设你是该校学生潘阳,你已找到以下三幅图片,决定给读书节组委会写一封信,推荐其中一幅,你的信须包括以下内容:1. 简单描述你想推荐的那幅图片;2. 阐述你用这幅图片宣传“读书节”的理由。
作文解析:今年的英语作文题目同样重点考察了主观理由型作文的写作手法,这篇文章要求学生在三幅学校读书节宣传图片当中选出自己最喜欢的一幅,对图片进行描述并说明原因。
这也是继2013年和2014年连续两年考察书信体与主观理由型文章的结合体之后出现的第三篇主观理由型文章。
整体来看,今年的作文题目似乎与往年没有什么区别,但细细分析,我们会发现今年英语作文的难度,不管是在文章内容、还是在形式上面,都有了大幅提升。
因为考生需要同时兼顾三个难点:1、书信体正确的的书写格式;2、对图片内容进行细节的描述;3、找出恰当的理由(2-3点)进行论证,说理充分,同时注意论点和论据相结合,以及文章语句之间的逻辑严密性。
可以说,近三年来英语作文虽然都在考察主观理由这个大的方向,但是考察的难度确实是在逐年递增。
对于考生来说,要想在短短的20分钟之内写好这篇作文,首先需要拿捏好这篇文章的结构。
一般来说,文章第一段用来引出话题,第二段可以对所选择的图片进行描写,描写时要格外注意的地方是对细节的详细描述,基本内容讲清楚就可以开始第三段的理由阐述了。
写好重头戏理由之后,在尾段我们无需过多笔墨,基本上通过三句话就可以收尾了。
也就是总结加升华,由于这是一篇征集建议的书信体文章,所以需要最后有一句客套话,考生可以通过Looking forward to your reply或者I will appreciate it very much if you can take my suggestions into consideration进行文章自然收尾。

(A) During the summer days my mother built her fire in the shadow of our cabin. In the early morning our simple breakfast (25) (spread) upon the grass. The morning meal was our quiet hour. At noon, several (26) chanced to be passing by stopped to rest, and to share our luncheon with us. I loved (27) (well) the evening meal, for that was the time old stories were told. I was always glad when the sun hung low in the west, for then my mother sent me to invite the neighboring old people to eat supper with us. "Yes, yes, gladly, gladly I shall come!" each replied. My mission done, I ran back, (28) (skip) and jumping with delight. At the arrival of our guests I sat close to my mother, and did not leave her side. I ate my supper in quiet, listening patiently to the talk of the old people, wishing all the time that they would begin the stories. At last, when I (29) not wait any longer, I whispered in my mother's ear, "(30) them to tell an Iktomi story, mother." Then my mother said aloud, "My little daughter is anxious to hear your stories." As each in turn began to tell a legend, I pillowed my head in my mother's lap; and lying flat upon my back, I watched (31) stars one by one. The increasing interest of the tale aroused me, and I sat up eagerly listening for every word. The old women made funny remarks, and laughed so heartily (32) I could not help joining them.

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) POETRY BY HEART By Andrew Motion (Viking £16.99) For three years, a terrific national competition has encouraged pupils aged 14 to 18 to learn and recite poetry — and this fat collection is the pool of 200 poems from which they have to make their choice. This anthology makes a fine present for anyone interested in poetry, ranging from the earliest English poem through every century to current poetry with many themes and from different ethnic backgrounds. Some of the choices seem odd to me — but that’s part of the fun, as you wonder why. The notes make the book really useful. Every home should have a copy. ______________________________________________________________跃龙学堂 您身边的中小学生辅导专家 5POEMS THAT MAKE GROWN MEN CRYEdited by Anthony and Ben Holden (Simon & Schuster £16.99) This is a fascinating, wide-ranging selection of poems chosen by 100 well-known men — simply because they find them deeply moving. But grown men aren’t supposed to cry, are they? Some of the poems are about loss, as you’d expect, but others are about deeply held political passions or intense observations of nature. Each is introduced by the chooser, usually with frank personal detail. BLACK COUNTRY by Liz Berry (Chatto £10) This is a writer I’m thrilled to discover — someone who takes a pride in the Midlands, where she lives. Berry uses some of the dialect words she heard as a child, turning ordinariness into something direct, tender and beautiful.The disagreeable Brummie accent becomes music in the hands of this fine young poet.LEARNING TO MAKE AN OUD IN NAZARETH by Ruth Padel (Chatto £10) Padel is one of our most talented writers. Poet, naturalist, musician and travel writer, she turns her multi-layered poetic attention to the Middle East, seeking peace and harmony through sensitive and moving poems that offer hope even as they reflect upon struggle. Her prolific and passionate creativity is proof that ‘making is our defence against the dark’.66. Of the four books mentioned above, who are the creators of the poems? A. Andrew Motion and Liz Berry C. Anthony and Ben Holden Ramo is a professor of law at Golden Gate University. “There is a real drive to make money, to have employment. When there’s a real job that’s available and a theoretical risk of awin out, business wins out.”71. What can we infer from the scientists’ finding twenty years ago?A.

Meanwhile , a report earlier this year from NHS England found that all patients are 12 percent more likely to die if admitted to hospital at the weekend ------this was because fewer senior staff were available and there was a lack of access to key physical examination tests, such as scans. which food passes from the mouth to the stomach, say Steven Mann, a gastroenterologist at the Royal Free London Trust.

上海市各区2015届高三英语一模试卷分类汇编:写作专题Directions: Write an English composition in 120-150 words according to the instructions given below in Chinese.目前,在网上购物的人越来越多,有人说在网上购物比在实体店购物优势多,有人说还是在实体店购物好。
请写一篇文章阐明你的观点。
你的文章必须包括:●简要介绍两种购物方式的不同之处●你喜欢那种购物方式?为什么?参考:Shopping online vs. shopping in physical storesAs scientific technologies developed faster and faster, our common lives have changed more and more, one of which is our shopping way.We have been shopping in physical stores, where a salesman may introduce many products to you and give you some advice about which one is the best choice, and you can try those clothes or shoes in person, even change another one if you find it not suitable to yourself.However, a new shopping method sprang up --- shopping online. There appear quantities of various stores on the Internet. You just need to click your mouse, and then you can see different kinds of commodities in them, with colorful pictures and detailed descriptions. If you are not clear about something, you can ask the customer service staff for help, who usually very kind and glad to answer your any question. Moreover, you can compare the same kind of products in different stores at the same time, which is able to save your time and avoid embarrassment.But every coin has two sides. Shopping online is not exceptional, so there are some disadvantages. First, you can never be sure whether the product is exactly what you see in the picture or read in the descriptions. What you receive may be much different from what is in your mind, for instance, strange color, wrong size or bad quality. Secondly, the products may be lost in the express delivery.From my perspective, I prefer shopping online, because I am too busy to have time go shopping in physical stores and goods online are usually cheaper. But I always choose the shops which have good reputation.【答案解析】文中包含题干的两个问题即可。

there is one word more than you need.Considering how much time people spend in offices,it is important that work be well designed.Well﹣designed office spaces help create a cooperation's image.They motivate workers and they make an impression on people who visit and might be potential or,(41),customer.They make businesses work better,and they are a part of the corporate culture we live in.As we move away from an industrial﹣based economy to a knowledge﹣based one,office designers have come up with (42)to the traditional work environments of the past.The design industry has moved away from a fixed office setup and created more flexible"strategic management environments."These (43)solutions are to meant to support better organizational performances.As employee hierarchies (等级制度)have flattened or decreased,office designers‘response to this change has been to move open﹣plain areas to more desirable locations within the office,and create fewer formal private offices.Theneed for increased flexibility has also been (44)by changes in work station design.Offices and work spaces often are not (45)to a given person on a permanent basis because of changes to method of working,new designs allow for expansion or movement of desks,storage,and equipment within the workstation.Another important design goal is communication,which designers have improved by lowering the walls that (46)workstations.Designers have also created informal gathering places,and upgraded employees'(47)to heavily trafficked areas such as copy and coffee rooms.Corporate and institutional office designers often struggle to resolve a number of competing and often (48)demands,including budgetary limits,employee hierarchies,and technological innovation(especially in relation to computerization).These demands must also be balanced with the need to create interiors(内饰)that in some way enhance,establish,or promote a company‘s image and will enable employees to (49)at their best.All these (50)of office design are related.The most successful office designs are like a good marriage ﹣﹣the well﹣designed office and the employees that occupy it are seemingly made for each other.III.ReadingComprehension51.(3分)If you studied pictures that ancient people left on rock walls and you tried to determine their meaning,you would not detect interest in romance among the artists.(51),you would see plenty of animals with people running after them.Life for ancient people's earned to center on hunting and gathering wild foods for meals.In modern times,when food is available in grocery stores,finding love is more (52)in people's lives.The (53)is all around us.It is easy to prepare a list of modern stories having to do with love.An endless number of books and movies qualify as love stories in popular culture.Researchers are studying whether love,a highly valued emotional state,can be(54).They ask,what is love?Toothpaste companies want us to think attraction is all about clean teeth,but clean teeth go only so far.Scientists wonder how much the brain gets involved.You have probably heard that opposites attract but that (55)attract,too.One thing is certain:The truth about love is not yet set in stone.First ImpressionTo help determine the (56)of attraction,researchers paired 164college classmates and had them talk for 3,6or 10minutes so they could get a sense of each other's individuality.Then students were asked to (57)what kind of relationship they were likely to build with their partners.After nine weeks,they reported what happened.As it turned out,their (58)judgements often held true.Students seemed to (59)at an early stage who would best fit into their lives.The (60)KnowsScientists have also turned to nonhumans to increase understanding of attraction.Many animals give off pheromones﹣natural chemicals that can be detected by,and then can produce a response in,other animals of the same species.Pheromones can signal that an animal is either ready to fight or is feeling (61)to partnerships.In contrast,humans do not seem to be as (62)as other animals at detecting such chemicals.Smell,however,does seem to play a part in human attraction.Although we may not be aware of chemicals like pheromones consciously,we give and receive loads of information through smell in every interaction with other people.Face ValueBeing fond of someone seems to have a number of factors,including seeing something we find attractive.Researchers had people judge faces for(63).The participants had 0.013seconds to view each face,yet somehow they generally considered the images the same as people who had more time to study the same faces.The way we (64)attractiveness seem to be somewhat automatic.When shown an attractive face and

cultural symbols,and there you'll find an ancestor of Frosty,the snowman in the movie Frozen.It appeared on some of thefirst postcards,starred in some of the earliest silent movies,and was the subject of a couple of the earliest photos,dating all the way back to the 1800s.I discovered even more about one of humanity's earliest forms of life art during several years of research around the world.For example,snowmen were a phenomenon in the Middle Ages,built with great skill and thought.At a time of limited means of expression,snow was like free art supplies dropped from the sky.It was a popular activity for couples to leisurely walk through town to view the temporary works of chilly art.Some were created by famous artists,including a 19﹣year﹣old Michelangelo,who in 1494was appointed by the ruler of Florence,Italy,to build a snowman in his mansion's courtyard.The Miracle of 1511 took place during six freezing works called the Winter of Death.The city of Brussels was covered in snowmen﹣an impressive scene that told stories on every street corner.Some were political in nature,criticizing the church and government.Some were a reflection of people's imagination.For the people of Brussels,this was a defining moment of defining freedom.At least until spring arrived,by which time they were dealing with damaging floods.If you fear the heyday of the snowman has passed,don't worry:I've learned that some explosive snowman history is still being made today.Every year since 1818,the people of Zurich,Switzerland,celebrate the beginning of spring by blowing up a snowman.On the third Monday of April,the holiday Sechselauten is kicked off when a cotton snowman called the Boogg is stuffed with explosive and paraded through town by bakers and other tradesmen who throw bread to the crowds.The parade ends with the Boogg being placed on a 40﹣foot pile of firewood.After the bells of the Church of St.Peter have rung six times,representing the passing of winter,the pile is lit.When the snowman explodes,winter is considered officially over﹣the quicker it is burnt down,the longer summer is said to be.66.According to the passage,why did snowmen become a phenomenon in the Middle Ages?.A.People thought of snow as holy art supplies.B.People longed to see masterpieces of snow.C.Building snowmen was a way for people to express themselves.D.Building snowmen helped people develop their skill and thought.67."The heyday of the snowman"(paragraph 4)means the time when.A.snowmen were made mainly by artistsB.snowmen enjoyed great popularityC.snowmen were politically criticizedD.snowmen caused damaging floods68.In Zurich,the blowing up of the Boogg symbolizes.A.the start of the paradeB.the coming of a longer summerC.the passing of the winterD.the success of tradesmen69.What can be concluded about snowmen from the passage?A.They were appreciated in historyB.They have lost their valueC.They were related to moviesD.They vary in shape and size.70.(3分)70.In the film review,what is paragraph A mainly about?.A.The introduction to the leading rolesB.The writer's opinion of actingC.The writer's comments on the storyD.The background information71.According to the film review,"monster"(paragraph B)refers to.A.a gun﹣crazy hunterB.a brainy dogC.a scary rabbitD.a giant vegetable72.Which of the following is a reason why the writer recommends the film?A.It's full of wit and humour.B.Its characters show feelings without words.C.It is an adventure film directed by Peter Sallis.D.It is about the harmony between man and animals.73.(3分)One of the executives gathered at the Aspen Institute for a day﹣long leadership workshop using the works of Shakespeare was discussing the role of Brutus in the death of Julius Caesar."Brutus was not an honorable man,"he said."He was a traitor(叛徒).And he murdered someone in cold blood."The agreement was that Brutus had acted with cruelty when other options were available to him.He made a bad decision,they said﹣at least as it was presented by Shakespeare﹣to take the lead in murdering Julius Caesar.And though one of the executives acknowledged that Brutus had the good of the republic in mind,Caesar was nevertheless his superior."You have to endeavor,"the executives said,"our policy is to obey the chain of command."During the last few years,business executives and book writers looking for a new way to advise corporate America have been exploiting Shakespeare's wisdom for profitable ends.None more so than husband and wife team Kenneth and Carol Adelman,well﹣known advisers to the White House,who started up a training company called"Movers and Shakespeares".They are amateur Shakespeare scholars and Shakespeare lovers,and they have combined their passion and their high level contacts into a management training business.They conduct between 30and 40workshops annually,focusing on half a dozen different plays,mostly for corporations,but also for government agencies.The workshops all take the same form,focusing on a single play as a kind of case study,and using individual scenes as specific lessons.In Julius Caesar,sly provocation (狡诈的挑唆)of Brutus to take up arms against the what was a basis for a discussion of methods of team building and grass roots organism.Although neither of the Adelmans is academically trained in literature,theprogrammes,contain plenty of Shakespeare tradition and background.Their workshop on Henry V,for example,includes a helpful explanation of Henry's winning strategy at the Battle of Agincourt.But they do come to the text with a few biases (偏向):their reading of Henry V minimizes his misuse of power.Instead,they emphasize the story of the youth who seizes opportunity and becomes a masterful leader.And at the workshop on Caesar,Mr.Adelmans had little good to say about Brutus,saying"the noblest Roman of them all"couldn't make his mind up about things.Many of the participants pointed to very specific elements in the play that they felt related Caesar's pride,which led to his murder,and Brutus's mistakes in leading the after the murder,they said,raise vital questions for anyone serving as a business when and how do you resist the boss?73.According to paragraph 1,what did all the executives think of Brutus?.A.Cruel.B.Superior.C.Honourable.D.Rude74.According to the passage,the Adelmans set up"Movers and Shakespeares"to.A.help executives to understand Shakespeare's plays betterB.give advice on leadership by analyzing Shakespeare's playsC.provide case studies of Shakespeare's plays in literature workshopsD.guide government agencies to follow the characters in Shakespeare's plays.75.Why do the Adelmans conduct a workshop on Henry V?A.To highlight the importance of catching opportunities.B.To encourage masterful leaders to plan strategies to win.C.To illustrate the harm of prejudices in management.D.To warn executives against power misuse.76.It can be inferred from the passage that.A.the Adelmans'programme proves biased as the roles of characters are maximized.B.executives feel bored with too many specific elements of Shakespeare's plays.C.the Adelmans will make more profits if they are professional scholars.D.Shakespeare has played an important role in the management field.77.The best title for the passage is.A.Shakespeare's plays:Executives reconsider corporate culture B.Shakespeare's plays:An essential key to business successC.Shakespeare's plays:a lesson for business motivationD.Shakespeare's plays:Dramatic training brings dramatic results.78.(3分)Youth sport has the potential to accomplish three important objectives in children's development.First,sport programs can provide youth with opportunities to be physically active,which can lead to improved physical health.Second,youth sport programs have long been considered important to youth's psychosocial development,providing opportunities to learn important life skills such as cooperation,discipline,leadership,and self﹣control.Third,youth sport programs are critical for the learning of motor skills;these motor skills serve as a foundation for future national sport stars and recreational adult sport participants.When coachers develop activities for youth practices and when sport organizations design youth﹣sport programs,they must consider the implication of deliberate play and deliberate practice.Research from Telama (2006)states that regular participation in deliberate play or deliberate practice activities during childhood and youth (ages nine to eighteen)increases the likelihood of participation in sports during adulthood by six times for both males and females.Côté (2002)defines deliberate play activities in sport as those designed to maximize enjoyment.These activities are regulated by flexible rules adapted from standardized sport rules and are set up by the children or by aninvolved adult.Children typically change rules to find a point where their game is similar to the actual sport but still allows for play at their level.For example,children may change soccer and basketball rules to suit their needs and environment (e.g.in the street.on a playing field or in someone's backyard).When involved in deliberate play activities,children are less concerned with the outcome of their outcome of their behavior.(whether they win or lose)than with the behavior.(having fun).On the other hand,Ericsson (1993)suggests that the most effective learning occurs through involvement in highly structured activities defined as deliberate practice.Deliberate practice activities require effort,produce no immediate rewards,and are motivated by the goal of improving performance rather than the goal of enjoyment.When individuals are involved in deliberate play,they experiment with different combinations of behaviors,but not necessarily in the most effective way to improve performance.In contrast,when individuals are involved in deliberate practice,they exhibit behavior.focused on improving performance by the most effective means available.For example,the backhand skills in tennis could be learned and improved over time by playing matches or by creating fun practice situations.However,players could more effectively improve their backhand performance by practicing drills that might be considered less enjoyable.Although drills are used in most effective means available practice might not be the most enjoyable,they might be the most relevant to improving performance.(Note:Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS)78.Besides the learning of motor skills,what are the other two important objectives of youth sport?.79.If children participate in deliberate play or deliberate practice activities,they are more likely to.80.In deliberate play activities,what do children do to maximize enjoyment?.81.In contrast to deliberate play,deliberate practice is aimed

2015上海高三一模英语写作解析——有多少爱还在重来?(2)马不停蹄的时间走到了2015年,高三的童鞋们,今年的一模考你们准备好了么?(怎么又是这句话?!上次讲过啦!)上一期我们研究了2015年高三一模宝山区的英语写作题,总结为——利弊分析型~重点就是需要明确观点并且有侧重地对比双方观点~这一期,让我们看看现在的英语考试还在延续重复着哪些老套路!2015 年普陀区一模假设你班班长打算在寒假组织一次班级活动,有三种方案:一、慈善义卖帮助家庭有困难的同学;二、聘请英语专家介绍有效地学习方法;三、组织一次班级新年派对。
作为班级的一员,请你根据你的实际情况,在三项方案中选择其一,提出对该项活动的建议并谈谈理由。
你的写作中必须包括:在三项方案中选择其一;对该方案提出建议;谈谈你提出建议的理由。
今天我们拿这道一模题目开刀了~如果按照分类的话,这类文章叫做——选择理由型~这可以说是在高考里最最最最最常考的类型了(给再多【最】都不为过)。
不信我们就来看看吧:爱共线是由民间发起的爱心公益组织,主要致力于贫困地区儿童相关的援助项目。
2005年到2014年十年高考类似题型考了6词,2014年一模考17套试卷考了7次(其中还包含了加入图片类文章的考查形式)~如果愿意深究的话那么这些数据几乎不会有什么太大波动的。
那就是说,近几年选择理由型的文章成了主流考察形式。
由此推测的话2015年上海一模的其他卷子有相当一部分也可能是这种题型。
但是如果没感觉的话我们就来看接下来的一个表格:那么回归到上一期的最后重点——对于句数以及行文段落的控制和作用明确。
如果是选择类的文章,那么结构应该大致如下:段1 ——引出话题并且做出选择(1~2句)段2 ——分不同角度进行展开(5~7句,可再分段)段3 ——总结呼应(1~2句)不知道这样的结构小伙伴能不能看出不同的地方。
如果不是很清楚那就来大致扫一遍结构吧:段1:句1:Recently, what has become a heated topic is that …(题干翻译)【和上一期的一样,第一句的目的很简单,引出主题词。

2015上海英语一模作文
2015上海英语一模作文With the rapid development of technology, its influence on various aspects of our lives has become increasingly significant. One area where technological advancements have made a profound impact is in the field of education. This essay will explore the positive and negative effects of technology on education, focusing on how it has transformed the way we learn and teach.Firstly, technology has made education more accessible to a wider audience. Online courses and educational platforms have opened up opportunities for individuals who may not have had the chance to attend traditional schools or universities. This democratization of education has the potential to bridge the gap between different socioeconomic backgrounds.Secondly, the use of technology in the classroom has made learning more interactive and engaging. Tools such as interactive whiteboards, educational apps, and virtualreality can cater to different learning styles and make complex concepts more digestible. This can lead to a more personalized learning experience, tailored to the needs of individual students.However, there are also concerns about the over-reliance on technology in education. One of the major issues is the potential distraction it can cause. With the internet and social media at their fingertips, students may find itchallenging to stay focused on their studies. This can leadto a decrease in productivity and a lower quality of learning.Additionally, the digital divide remains a significantbarrier to the use of technology in education. Not allstudents have equal access to technological resources, which can exacerbate existing inequalities in the education system. Efforts must be made to ensure that technology serves as atool for leveling the playing field rather than widening the gap between students.In conclusion, technology has brought about significant changes in the way education is delivered and received. While it offers numerous benefits, such as increased accessibility and enhanced learning experiences, it also presentschallenges that need to be addressed. It is crucial for educators, policymakers, and technologists to work togetherto harness the power of technology to improve education while mitigating its potential drawbacks.。
2015上海高考英语作文
2015上海高考英语作文In 2015, the Shanghai College Entrance Examination (Gaokao) English composition prompt might have asked students to write an essay on a topic relevant to their daily life or current events. Here's an example of what the content of such anessay could be:In today's rapidly developing world, the issue of environmental protection has become a matter of great concern. The year 2015 was a pivotal moment for China, as it markedthe beginning of the "Green Development" strategy,emphasizing the need for sustainable growth. As a studentliving in Shanghai, I have witnessed firsthand the efforts made by the city to combat pollution and promote a greener lifestyle.One of the most significant steps taken by Shanghai was the implementation of strict regulations on industrial emissions. Factories were required to install advanced pollution control systems, which significantly reduced the release of harmful substances into the atmosphere. This has led to clearer skies and improved air quality, making it easier for residents to breathe and enjoy outdoor activities.In addition to industrial reforms, the city has also focusedon promoting green transportation. The expansion of thepublic transportation system, including the metro and bus networks, has encouraged more people to leave their cars at home. Furthermore, the introduction of bike-sharing programs has made cycling a convenient and popular mode of transportation, reducing the number of vehicles on the road and thus lowering emissions.Education plays a crucial role in fostering environmental awareness among the younger generation. Schools in Shanghai have integrated environmental education into their curriculum, teaching students about the importance of recycling, conserving energy, and protecting wildlife. These lessons not only instill a sense of responsibility in students but also encourage them to become advocates for environmental protection.Community initiatives have also been instrumental in raising awareness. Neighborhood clean-up events, tree planting campaigns, and educational workshops have become common, engaging residents in hands-on environmental activities.These efforts have not only beautified the city but have also created a sense of community and shared responsibility.In conclusion, the year 2015 was a testament to Shanghai's commitment to environmental protection. The city'smultifaceted approach, involving industry, transportation, education, and community engagement, has set a strong foundation for a sustainable future. It is my belief that as individuals, we must continue to support and contribute to these initiatives, ensuring that our planet remains a healthyand habitable place for generations to come.This essay provides a structured and coherent response to the topic, demonstrating an understanding of environmental issues and the steps taken by Shanghai in 2015 to address them.

2015高考英语作文上海As the curtains of the 2015 Gaokao unfold, the students of Shanghai, like their peers across China, are faced with the daunting task of crafting an essay that encapsulates their understanding of a given topic. This year, the spotlight is on the transformative power of technology on education. As an English teacher, I am inspired to reflect on this theme and share my insights.In the past decade, technology has woven its way into the fabric of education, altering the way we learn, teach, and interact. The advent of digital devices, online platforms, and educational software has opened up a world ofpossibilities that were once confined to the imagination.Firstly, the integration of technology in classrooms has made learning more accessible. Students in Shanghai, as in many other cities, now have the opportunity to engage with a wealth of information at their fingertips. This democratization of knowledge has the potential to level the playing field, allowing students from various socioeconomic backgrounds to access the same educational resources.Secondly, technology has revolutionized the way educators teach. Interactive whiteboards, educational apps, and virtual reality simulations are just a few of the tools that have made learning more dynamic and engaging. These tools not only cater to different learning styles but also encourage a moreparticipatory approach to education, where students areactive contributors rather than passive recipients of knowledge.However, the integration of technology in education is not without its challenges. The digital divide remains asignificant issue, with students in rural areas or those from less affluent families often lacking the necessary resourcesto fully benefit from technological advancements.Additionally, the over-reliance on technology can sometimes detract from the value of face-to-face interaction andcritical thinking skills that are essential for holistic development.In conclusion, the impact of technology on education is profound and multifaceted. While it offers numerous benefits, such as increased accessibility and engaging teaching methods, it also presents challenges that must be addressed to ensure equitable access and the preservation of essentialeducational values. As we continue to navigate the digital age, it is crucial for educators, policymakers, and studentsto work together to harness the power of technology for the betterment of education.Reflecting on the 2015 Gaokao English essay prompt, it isclear that the topic is not only relevant but also a call to action for all stakeholders in the education sector. It is a reminder that as we embrace the technological advancements of our time, we must also remain vigilant in our pursuit ofquality education that is both inclusive and enriching.。
2015上海高三一模英语写作解析各区点评
2015上海高三一模英语写作解析——有多少爱还在重来?(2)马不停蹄的时间走到了2015年,高三的童鞋们,今年的一模考你们准备好了么?(怎么又是这句话?!上次讲过啦!)上一期我们研究了2015年高三一模宝山区的英语写作题,总结为——利弊分析型~重点就是需要明确观点并且有侧重地对比双方观点~这一期,让我们看看现在的英语考试还在延续重复着哪些老套路!2015 年普陀区一模假设你班班长打算在寒假组织一次班级活动,有三种方案:一、慈善义卖帮助家庭有困难的同学;二、聘请英语专家介绍有效地学习方法;三、组织一次班级新年派对。
作为班级的一员,请你根据你的实际情况,在三项方案中选择其一,提出对该项活动的建议并谈谈理由。
你的写作中必须包括:❖在三项方案中选择其一;❖对该方案提出建议;❖谈谈你提出建议的理由。
今天我们拿这道一模题目开刀了~如果按照分类的话,这类文章叫做——选择理由型~这可以说是在高考里最最最最最常考的类型了(给再多【最】都不为过)。
不信我们就来看看吧:2014闵行一模假如你是启明中学(Ming Qi Middle School)的李明,想申请成为“爱共线”的暑期志愿者。
根据以下启事,写一封申请信(信中不能提到真实姓名和学校)。
2005年到2014年十年高考类似题型考了6词,2014年一模考17套试卷考了7次(其中还包含了加入图片类文章的考查形式)~如果愿意深究的话那么这些数据几乎不会有什么太大波动的。
那就是说,近几年选择理由型的文章成了主流考察形式。
由此推测的话2015年上海一模的其他卷子有相当一部分也可能是这种题型。
但是如果没感觉的话我们就来看接下来的一个表格:题型特征:考察目的:二选一(给出内容方向)06年和13年为代表限定内容范围,让学生能够根据题干要求写出大部分内容。
可发挥空间自由度相对限制。
二选一(不给内容方向)08年为代表不限定内容因此自由度更广。
但是学生能否想到比较广的内容面就变成文章成败的关键了。

上海市青浦区2015届高三上学期期末学业质量调研测试(一模)英语试题(考试时间120分钟,满分150分。
请将答案填写在答题纸上)第Ⅰ卷(共103分)I. Listening Comprehension(略)II. Grammar and V ocabularySection ADirections: After reading the passages below, fill in the blanks to make the passages 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.(A)During the summer days my mother built her fire in the shadow of our cabin. In the early morning our simple breakfast (25) (spread) upon the grass. The morning meal was our quiet hour. At noon, several (26) chanced to be passing by stopped to rest, and to share our luncheon with us. I loved (27) (well) the evening meal, for that was the time old stories were told.I was always glad when the sun hung low in the west, for then my mother sent me to invite the neighboring old people to eat supper with us. "Yes, yes, gladly, gladly I shall come!" each replied. My mission done, I ran back, (28) (skip) and jumping with delight.At the arrival of our guests I sat close to my mother, and did not leave her side. I ate my supper in quiet, listening patiently to the talk of the old people, wishing all the time that they would begin the stories. At last, when I (29) not wait any longer, I whispered in my mother's ear, "(30) them totell an Iktomi story, mother."Then my mother said aloud, "My little daughter is anxious to hear your stories." As each in turn began to tell a legend, I pillowed my head in my mother's lap; and lying flat upon my back, I watched (31)stars one by one. The increasing interest of the tale aroused me, and I sat up eagerly listening for every word. The old women made funny remarks, and laughed so heartily (32) I could not help joining them.(B)The 43rd U.S. president George W. Bush stepped back into the spotlight when a library and museum dedicated to him opened to the public on May 1. the George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum is dedicated (33) the campus of Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas. The library and museum is plentiful with exhibits on the historical events. “About 3000,000 visitors (34) (expect)”,said the libr ary and museum spokesman.Presidential libraries are not libraries in the traditional sense. People cannot go to the George W. Bush Presidential library (35) (check) out a book. They are facilities that preserve documents and items of a president and his act of governing. (36) is preserved at a presidential library is available to the public to see and study because presidential libraries are public property (37)(belong) to the American people.The Presidential library system began in 1939 when President Franklin Roosevelt ,during(38) second term in office, donated his personal and presidential papers to the government. Up until that point, presidential papers were destroyed, sold for profit, ruined by poor storage conditions, (39) were simply lost to the history.Roosevelt believed that presidential documents were an important part of the nation’s heritage. He also donated a potion of his estate in Hyde PARK, New York, (40) his library and museum would be built. This began a tradition that would carry on with every president that followed.Section BDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.It's the customary bedtime practice every parent would feel fearful----being asked to read the same book for many times. But while the 41 repetition might be boring for mum or dad, it is the best way for toddlers to learn new words, according to research.The findings suggest parents are wasting money by spending a fortune on huge book collections in the hope they will inspire their little ones. Instead, a small selection of favourites such as The Very Hungry Caterpillar or The Gruffalo will 42 far more.Dr Jessica Horst, of the University of Sussex’s WORD Lab devised an experiment to check how quickly three-year-olds could recognize and 43 six new words. The children were visited three times in a week. One group heard the same story three times back-to-back each time and another was read three 44 stories. All had the same amount of new words which appeared the same 45 of times.When researchers returned a week later, they found the children who heard the same story over and over had 46 learned 3.6 of the new words. While those 47 to a variety of stories remembered only 2.6.They also noted the ‘repetition’ group learned at a faster rate than those in the ‘48 ’ group.Dr Horst said: ‘We are showing that less is more, to a point. And,49 , the more times you read to a child and the more books you have will help them. But you don’t need to go crazy and buy every single Thomas the Tank Engine book. Reading the same books over and o ver again helps.’Speaking of the 50 studies, we have found one in three don’t read to their children before putting them to bed. Yet 30 minutes of one-on-one literacy sessions can improve reading age by nearly two years in less than five months.III. Reading ComprehensionSection 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 or phrase that best fits the context.Seven-year-old Jordan Lisle, in Mill Valley, California, joined his family at a packed after-hours school event last month aimed at inspiring anew interest: computer programming.The event was part of a national educational ___51____ in computer coding instruction that is growing at Internet speeds.

Which of the four books may probably give the people living in psychological suffering comfort and relief?A. Poems that Make Grown Men CryB. Poetry by HeartC. Black CountryD. Learning to Make an Oud in Nazareth(B)Emergency rooms (ER) are supposed to cure people but Dr. John Stemgold wonders if working in an ER in Willits made him sick. The ER was downwind of the Remco chrome plant. “I used to sit facing that window and kind of daydream out the window, looking at Remco, looking at the fog coming out of there. Then I wo uld cough and cough.” Stemgold said.What Dr.Stemgold didn’t know was that Remco was flowing out Chromium VI into the air--- a chemical known to cause cancer and breathing problems in humans. A recent state health department study found that people who were in Willits when Remco was in operation from 1964 to 1995 are at higher risk for cancer because of Chromium VI exposure.Today Dr.Stemgold has lots of time to play his guitar. It turns out he has a form of breathing difficulty. Hospital chemical s cause coughing so violently that he’s broken bones and it’s cost him his career. Others in this town believe the Chromium has made them sick, too, and their families. Actually, Chromium VI was classified as a carcinogen , a cancer-causing substance, thirty years ago, Twenty years ago, a group of state scientific specialists found no exposure level below which carcinogen effects would not have some probability of occurring. Still, Remco was allowed to flow out Chromium VI into the air.In the battle to balance public health and a healthy economy, laws often favor business, Alan Ramo is a professor of law at Golden Gate University. “There is a real drive to make money, to have employment. When there’s a real job that’s available and a theoretical risk o f a chemical, jobs win out, business wins out.”And chemicals are allowed to flood the marketplace and the government requires strict testing before any drugs can be sold. But the vast majority of industrial chemicals are put into use little testing of any kind Chemicals that people like us, you and me might be exposed to. Marilyn Underwood is with California state health department. “ You need to have the convincing evidence that something is bad to then start regulating it.” However, in most cases, c hemicals are not tested until someone reports the abnormal, unnatural condition of the environment in general.“I think that if people really knew what really goes on with environmental protection I think they would be shocked and they should be.” Says Professor Ramo. “It might be valuable for other people to know what has happened to me, not for me but for them.” He said “because they might be in a similar situation because of where they work.”70. What happened to the people who lived in Willits from 1964-1995?A. most of them were forced to move away.B. They earn a lot of fortune from the factory or the profit it brought about.C. employees from local area all got sick and lost their jobs at the plant.D. They have a greater chance of having severe disease.71. What can we infer from the scientists’ finding twenty years ago?A. Chromium VI surroundings help surgeons have more casual life.B. More skillful and capable doctors were needed.C. There is no safe level of Chromium VI exposure.D. A group of scientists were trying proper ways to solve the problems.72. When are new chemicals for industry tested?A. When they make smog-forming gases.B. When some problem is noticed.C. Ten years after they are first used.D. When the plant faces collapse.73. One of the important issues in the story is______.A. The dangers of emergency rooms that create health problem downwind.B. Doctors prescribing too many drugs.C. The battle to balance public health and a healthy economyD. Why scientists restricted chemical, like Chromium VI(C)The vast majority of fitness trackers count your steps and are worn around the wrist, but now there’s a device that’s designed to be worn like a necklace and monitors tiny movements to improve your posture.The Fineck device aims to address neck pain by tracking tiny movement, spotting bad habits and suggesting exercises via an accompanying app. Made from silicone(硅)and titanium(钛), Fineck monitors a wearer’s movement, balance, posture and movement thanks to sensors inside. The Mountain View California-based firm says that a high percentage of people suffer from neck pain and associated problems, probably caused by more individuals doing office jobs, which generally involve leaning over computer keyboard.The device contains sensors, several different types of instruments to monitor movement, plus a monitor to shake. It connects to an iOS app via Bluetooth so that wearers can see their bad habits and play “neck training” games. The app warns of health risks and records a user’s activity to build up a customer personal health description. The necklace shakes to give smart advice, such as reminding wearers to sit up st raight. The app also allows users to set goals, like many other wearables do. “Fineck is the first wearable device for your neck that tracks your neck activity and warn you when you are in a bad posture for too long. You can also exercise your neck with Fi neck’s interactive games.” The company writes on Kickstarter. “No matter where you are and what you are doing at office, on the go, or simply just feeling bored, Fineck will bring you enriched exercise experience through motion sensing games and therapies.”It also claims that it is “the world’s first titanium wearable device”. The metal is widely used in fashion stuff that you can wear or carry to match your clothes because it is lightweight, durable and does not tend to cause allergic(过敏的)reactions. It also offers additional features such as shaking to indicate alerts on a user’s smartphone, but it is not currently clear whether it can also be used like bands, to count steps, and so on.The Fineck has a battery life of around seven days and takes one hour to charge. It is available to pre-order via Kickstarter from $69(£44)and is due to ship in March next year.74. What helps the Fineck device to deal with neck pain?A. An accompanying app.B. A necklaceC. Computer keyboard.D. A remote control75. Besides allowiong people to set goals, the iOS app also_____.A. improves your posture and suggests exercisesB. exercise your neck and does office jobsC. alerts you to health risk and records your activityD. counts your steps and addresses neck pain76. Which of the following statements is true?A. The Fineck takes an hour to charge and is available at any time.B. Movie stars like to wear necklace made of silicone to match their clothes.C. The device count the steps to help wearers to see their bad habits.D. Neck-ache is something caused by using computers too much.77. We can infer from the passage that the Fineck device will_____.A. actually not cause allergic reactions.B. enrich your life by providing “neck training” gamesC. monitor a wearer’s movement due to the material it is made ofD. help to correct your improper posturesSection CDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.The one place you really don’t want to be on weekend is in hospital. Last week, it was revealed in the research by Guy’s and St Thomas’ hospital in London, that stroke patients admitted on a Saturday or Sunday are up to 16 percent more likely to die .Meanwhile , a report earlier this year from NHS England found that all patients are 12 percent more likely to die if admitted to hospital at the weekend ------this was because fewer senior staff were available and there was a lack of access to key physical examination tests, such as scans.But even if you’re not in hospital, weekends can be a healt h danger. You might have thought it was your chance to recover after a hard week ,but as we reveal, while they won’t kill you, weekends may be bad for your health.Headaches can occur more often at the weekend--------especially on a Saturday-------because of a chance in our routine, suggests Dr Andy Dowson, director of headache services at King’s College Hospital, London. He says:” if you are used to eating at a certain time of day or getting up and falling asleep at the same time, not continuing in the normal way at the weekend can cause headaches as your body and brain try to adjust to irregular meals or having a lie-in.” one theory is that the hypothalamus is very sensitive to any change in the body’s routine.Caffeine withdrawal may be another factor, if you usually drink three or four cups of tea or coffee on week days to help you concentrate at work, but don’t at the weekend, your body can go into withdrawal . it’s thought caffeine also influences the chemical messenger that widens blood vessels in the brain----without it, these vessels narrow again, triggering a headache.Lying on the sofa in front of TV for hours watching your favorites after a week of running around can make heartburn worse----or even cause it to happen, as sitting with the head and shoulders bent forward puts pressure on the stomach, forcing acid up the gullet, the tube through which food passes from the mouth to the stomach, say Steven Mann, a gastroenterologist at the Royal Free London Trust.Acid reflux can also become a problem at the weekend you cannot bear because of less regular meal times as a result of late nights and lie-ins, explains Dr Mann. And having a take away could be the final straw. “ Oily, fatty food stimulates acid production, which can also cause prob lems such as heartburn and overflowing with the food.”Dr Mann adds.(note: Answer the question or complete the statements in NOT MORE THAN TWELVE WORDS)78. besides fewer staff available, why are weekend patients admitted to hospitals more likely to die?79. what are the two factors which may cause headaches?80. A headache sometimes occurs when blood vessels narrow for lack of ___________________________________________81. we can infer from the passage that the final straw in the last paragraph means___________________________________.第Ⅱ卷(共47分)I.

They seldom need a referee (裁判) and rarely trouble to keep scores. They don't care much about who wins or loses, and it doesn't seem to worrythem1the game is not finished. Yet, they like games that depend a lot on luck,2their personal abilities cannot be directly compared. They also enjoyed games that move in stages, in which each stage—the choosing of leaders, the picking-up of sides, or the determining of which side shall start—is almost a game in itself. Grown-ups can hardly find children's game exciting, and they often feel puzzled at3their kids play such simple game again and again.4, it is found that a child plays games for very important reasons. He can be a good player without having to think whether he is a popular person, and he can find himself being a useful partner to someone of whom he is ordinary afraid. He becomes a leader when it comes to5turn. He can be confident, too, in particular games, that it is his place to give orders, to pretend to be dead, to throw a ball actually at someone, or to kiss someone he6(catch).It appears to us that when children play a game they imagine asituation7their control. Everyone knows the rules,and8(importantly), everyone plays according to the rules. Those rules may be childish, but they make sure that every child has a chance to win.二、选词填空3、【来源】 2015年上海长宁区高三一模第3题A century ago, American political leaders judged public opinions by people's applause and the size of crowds at meeting.

Their debates took place before4in cornfields and courthouse squares. A century later most presidential debates, although seen by millions, take place before a few reporters and the technicians in television studios. The public's response cannot be5firsthand.

They were to be allowed to celebrate the Fourth of July, the glorious day, by the blowing of horns exactly at sunrise. But they were to blow them for precisely five minutes only, and no sound of the horns should be heard afterward till the family were downstairs. It was thought that a peace might thus be brought by a short, though crowded, period of noise.The morning came. Even before the morning, at half-past three o'clock, a terrible blast of the horns aroused the whole family.The number of the horns was most remarkable! It was as though every cow in the place had arisen and was blowing through both her own horns! "How many little boys are there? How many have we? " exclaimed Mr. Peterkin, going over their names one by one mechanically thingking he would do it, as he might count imaginary sheep jumping over a fence, to put himself to sleep. The counting could not put him to sleep now, in such a loud noise.And how unexpectedly long the five minutes seemed! Elizabeth Eliza was to take out her watch and give the signal for the end of the five minutes, and the ceasing of the horns. Why did not the signal come? Why didi not Elizabeth Eliza stop them?And certainly it was long before sunrise; there was no dawn to be seen! " We'll not try this plan again, " said Mrs. Peterkin. "If we live to another Fourth, " added Mr. Peterkin, hurrying to the door to inquire into the state of affairs.Alas! Amanda, by mistake, had waked up the little boys an hour too early. And by another mistake the little boys had invited three or four of their friends to spend the night with them. Mrs. Peterkin had given them permission to have the boys for the whole day, and they understood the day as be ginning when they went to bed the night before. This accounted for the number of horns.It would have been impossible to hear any explanation; but the five minutes were over, and the horns had ceased, and there remained only the noise of a singular leaping of feet, explained perhaps by a possible pillow-fight, that kept the family below partially awake until the bells and cannon made known thedrawning of the glorious day, the sunrise, or "the rising of the sons, " as Mr. Peterkin jokingly called it when they heard the little boys and their friends clattering down the stairs to begin the outside festivities.(1) According to the passage, which event happened first?A. Mr. Peterkin noted how many boys there were.B. The Peterkins were awakened by the boys.C. Elizabeth gave the signal to stop the horns.D. Mr. Peterkin exclaimed how many boys they had.(2) What did the 7th paragraph talk about?A. The palce where the boys blew their horns.B. The time when Elizabeth Eliza stopped them.C. The way how the boys blew their horns.D.

The university is a large organization that is fully integrated into the city and has been evolving for 800 years. Some of the first things our students do when they arrive include finding a bike(most students in Oxfordfind cycling is the best way to go around), setting up a bank account, getting their computer and mobile phone working, finding their department, getting to know their college and working out the best places to socialize.One of the major events you will experience shortly after "coming up" to Oxford is matriculation. Matriculation is held at the University's Sheldonian Theatre and is the ceremony at which you are formally admitted to the university.International students are invited to an orientation day at the start of the academic year. Sessions run throughout the day that will give you practical information about living and studying in UK and introduce you to other graduate students from for all over the world who are starting their studies at Oxford at the same time as you, as well as to current Oxford graduate students and staff who will be able to help and advise you. The day covers topics such as studying and learning in the Oxford system, University services, information on living in Britain and culture differences, as well as addressing practical issues such as employment, immigration and visas, health and safety. You can choose which talks to attend and at the end of the day there is a social hour so you can meet fellow students.Another good thing to experience early on is college dining. Most colleges have a tradition of regular formal hall dinners, which consist of three or four courses, and the atmosphere of an evening out in a nice restaurant. On some of these occasions you can invite people around to your college for dinner and then they may TAL#NBSP return the favor. In this way, you can get to know people studying your own and other subjects at the same time as visiting many of the historical college grounds and dining halls.Further information on your first few weeks at Oxford is available via the Students Gateway on our website, and you can get first-hand accounts of what life at Oxford is like by watching videos of students talking about their experiences on our Wall of 100 Faces.(1) Which of the following is not the first thing for a newcomer to Oxford to do?A. to find a best place to socializeB. to set up a bank accountC. to go to the Sheldonian TheatreD. to get mobile phone working(2) When do students feel they are truly admitted to Oxford University?A. They arrived in Oxford and settled down on campus.B. They received the offer from the admission office.C. They met the staff and took some required courses.D. They experienced the matriculation in the university.(3) Which is an orientation important for international students?A. It is a good chance to ask the staff for help.B. It offers practical information about living and studying.C. It helps get students' computers hooked to the Internet.D. It can help deal with the problem of culture differences.(4) The phrase "return the favor" in the passage probably means.A. inviting you for dinnerB. visiting your historic college in returnC. sharing favorite videosD. providing you with some good advice7、【来源】 2015年上海长宁区高三一模(C篇)第7题2018~2019学年10月上海闵行区上海市七宝中学高一上学期月考(E篇)第87~90题8分When a big boat, like a cruise ship, goes through the ocean, it often creates waves. This happens when the large engines on the back of the cruise ship cause the water on the ocean's surface move up and down violently. These waves move out from the boat in both directions. If you are captaining a smaller boat,you'd bettersteer clear of a ship's wake, so that your boat is not surfing on the waves, causing it to overturn.A wave is a pattern of motion. When you look at a wave, it may appear as simply water moving across the surface of the ocean. In fact, this is false. The water is actually not moving in the same direction as the wave. While the wave itself -- the pattern of motion—is moving across the surface of the ocean, the water is actually moving in a circular motion, which brings the water molecules back to their original position. The water merely gives the appearance of moving forward.If this is confusing, think of the kind of wave you do at a baseball stadium. Viewed from a distance, the wave is clearly moving across the stadium. But the thing that makes up the wave—the people—are not moving across the stadium, they're just moving up and down in their seats. This is just like the water in an ocean wave. A lot of water is moving up and down, which gives water the appearance of moving along with the wave.Surfers pay a lot of attention to waves. If you're not in an area where the waves are suitable for surfing, then you can't surf. Usually, surfers gather in areas known for big waves—waves that rise high off the ocean's surface. If the wave is bigger, then the surfer is often able to surf for longer distances and perform more tricks. The height of a wave is known as its amplitude. If you could make a wave freeze, then youcould measure the wave's amplitude by running a tape measure from the ocean's surface to the very peak of the wave.All waves can be measured using amplitude and wavelength. While the waves created by a boat have very small amplitude—sometimes as small as a few centimeters—the wavelength can be very short, as lots of waves are being generated. By contrast, a tsunami has very high amplitude, sometimes more than 100 feet, but a relatively long wavelength, as it's a high wave.Waves generated in the same way can have great differences in amplitude and wavelength. For example, think back to the cruise ship. While each ship creates waves caused by the movement of the boat, the properties of each of the waves may be very different. For example, a larger cruise ship, with powerful engines, may create a wave that has high amplitude and a short wavelength. However, if the ship's engines slow down, they may then start creating less powerful waves at a slower rate. This would cause the waves' amplitude to decrease, but its wavelength to increase.(1) What does the phrase "steer clear of a cruise ship's wake" in the 1st paragraph mean?A. keep awake while steering a shipB. get a clear view of what is aheadC. keep away from the cruise shipD. follow the cruise ship very closely(2) The author gives an example of wave people do in the stadium in order to.A. illustrate how excited people are in a basketball stadiumB. clear the confusion over measuring the wave's amplitudeC. demonstrate how to make waves in a basketball stadiumD. explain why the water appears to move along the waves(3) The last paragraph gives us the impression that.A. the wave's amplitude may vary, but its wavelength remain the sameB. the move powerful the ships engines are, the higher the waves they generateC. the amplitude of a wave depends on the direction the water moves forwardD. measuring the amplitude and wavelength of waves is not quite easy(4) What is this passage mainly about?A. How waves are created and measured.B. What makes the sea water move forwards.C. Why people create waves in the stadium.D. How to steer a cruise ship in the rough sea.五、任务型阅读8、【来源】 2015年上海长宁区高三一模第8题The paper is written in an attempt to discuss what the creative process is .Though much theory has accumulated, little is reall y known about the power that lies at the bottom of poetic creation. It is true that great poets and artists produce beauty by employing all the powers of personality and by combing emotions, reason, and intuitions(直觉). But what is the magical synthesis(合成) that joins and arranges these complex parts into poetic unity?John L. Lowes, in his justly famous "The Road to Xanadu"developed one of the earliest and still generally acceptable answers to this interesting question. Imaginative creation. He concludes, is a complex process in which the conscious and unconscious minds jointly operate. "there is….the deep well with its chaos(杂乱) of accidently mixing images, but there is likewise the vision which sees shining in and through the chaos of the potential lines of form, and with the vision, the controlling will, which gives to that potential beauty actuality."The deep well is the unconscious mind that is peopled with the facts, ideas, feelings of the conscious activity. The imaginative vision, an unconscious activity, shines through the land of chaos, of lights and shadows, silently seeking pattern and form. Finally, the conscious mind again, through will, captures and embodies the idea in the final work of art. In this way is unity born out of chaos.Though there can be no absolute certainty, there is general agreement that the periods in the development of a creative work parallel(与….相似), to some extent, Lowes's theory of well, vision, form and will. There are at least three stages in the creative process: preparation, inspiration, work.In a sense, the period of preparation is all of the writer's life. It is the deep well . It is especially a period of concentration which gives the unconscious mind an opportunity to communicate with the conscious mind. When remembrance of things past reaches the conscious level of the writer's mind, he is ready to go on with the process. Part of this preparation involves learning a medium—learning a language, learning how to write, learning literary forms. It is important to note here that form cannot be imposed upon the idea. Evidence, though not enough, shows that the idea gives birth to the form that can best convey it. It is the vision, according to Lowes, that sees shining in and through the chaos of the potential lines of form.(1) John L. Lowes has provided an acceptable answer to the question of.(2) are the four elements of John L. Lowes' theory.(3) How does the preparation stage contribute to the development of a creative work?(4) According to the passage, what is the relationship between the idea and form?六、翻译9、【来源】 2015年上海长宁区高三一模第9题翻译(1) 均衡的膳食是保持健康的关键。

2015上海高三一模英语写作解析(4)
——大数据看规律
赶在现在还没有正式发行完整的全部2015年上海高考一模试卷之际,上海新东方优能中学
精品班【大熊老师许振斌】独家发布2015年上海高三一模考写作数据分析~
标题很唬人吧?接下来继续更加意想不到!跟着本大熊开始分析吧,SHALL WE?
首先我们先来看看我们整理的全部写作题吧:
每个人在生活中都有被错怪或冤枉的经历,请讲述一个你的故事并谈谈你当时的感受或看法。
教室的一角空着,现在征求学生意见,是布置成绿化角(Green
总共17套2015上海高三一模试卷收集了16套,大数据的可靠性应该就可想而知了。
但是光有题不会分析依旧还是白搭~所以现在才是真正的大家伙!GET READY!!!
大数据分析结论1:漫画类文章明显少了
因为2012年的上海高考英语写作考察了漫画作文,直接导致了2013年的一模考17套卷子
考了6套漫画和图片的。
但是2013年和2014年连续两年高考没有再出漫画类作文所以2014年高三一模和2015年高三一模的漫画比率都在【1/17】了~
提问:这真的代表漫画类的文章不考了么?
【2010(参考数据:上海高考曾经考过漫画图片的题目时间为【2002年秋考】、【2004年春考】、
年秋考】、【2012年秋考】)
大数据分析结论2:按照文章结构分类老四样
所谓的【结构老四样】,我们总结如下:
1. 选择+理由(从题干中选择并且提出选择的理由,部分需要对比)9/16
宝山、普陀、长宁、松江、金山、
青浦(建议信)、崇明(建议信)、静安(申请信)、闸北(申请信)
2. 现象+看法(题干给出现象,就此谈谈你的看法,也可能重点在建议上)4/16
嘉定、虹口、奉贤、浦东
3. 记叙+议论(结合亲身经历or简要描述图片为记叙,由此展开议论)3/16
黄浦(建议信)、杨浦、徐汇
4. 申请信or 发言稿(书信or邮件格式,内容和前三样重复)5/16
【静安、闸北、青浦、崇明、黄浦】(此处为重复内容)
当然这个只是大致分类,有部分文章可以涉及两种不同写法(比如记叙+议论部分的文章就可以和1/2融合)。
这里的分类依据为多数学生会写成的模式,不代表全部。
大数据分析结论3:范围依旧控制在【学校生活】&【热点话题】
对于平时总觉得词穷的同学,这部分的建议可能会比较有用~上海高考英语出题的主题范围就近几年来看并没有太大的扩展(相较于【雅思】和【托福】而言)。
这就代表了我们在平时可以多积累一些相关的词汇和句子内容。
【学校生活1】:同学和同学之间
(Friendship/ Cooperation/ Same Hobbies/ ……)
【学校生活2】:同学和老师之间
(Respect/ Love/ Grow Up/ ……)
【学校生活3】:校内活动+自我成长(也可包含1 & 2)
(Fun/ Honor/ Help/ Explore Hobbies/ Sharp Skills/ ……)
【热点话题1】:科技
(Convenience/ Efficiency/ Time-saving/ ……)
【热点话题2】:环境
(Resources/ Environmental-protection/ Traffic/ ……)
【热点话题3】:生活方式
(Parenting & Schooling/ Idol / Social Practice/ ……)
大数据分析结论4:最后的【差距】在于扩展内容
之所以这么说,其实原因很简单——题干多数给出要求都很明确。
这样的题干设计让学生
很容易有思路能写出【粗略大致的提纲类】的句子,但是对于【细致的扩展类】内容却因人而异了~
【有东西写但是难写好】,这个原则在上海的历年高考和一模二模屡试不爽~所以我可以很肯定地说,对于扩展内容的训练将会越来越受到重视。
但是写作技巧真的谁都会教么?有没有什么特别的针对性的技巧?本大熊在这里就卖个关
子了,想知道英语写作的【最核心技巧】的同学看来只能专门跑一趟上海新东方来咯~欢迎登陆我们的上海新东方官网/或者登陆我的新浪微博@新东方许振斌获得更多关于英语学习的精彩内容吧~我们下期见~
