No matter what kind of situation we’re in, they always seem to know just what to say and how to say it so that we’re not offended or upset. We probably also know people who are masters at managing their emotions. They don’t get angry in stressful situations. Instead, they have the ability to calmly look at a problem and find a solution. They take criticism well, and they know when to use it to improve their performance.People like this have a high degree of emotional intelligence, or EI. They know themselves very well, and they’re also able to sense the emotional needs of others.As more and more people accept that emotional intelligence is just as important to professional success as technical ability, companies are increasingly using EI when they hire and promote someone. For example, one large cosmetics company recently revised their hiring process for salespeople to choose candidates based on emotional intelligence. The result? Salespeople hired with the new system have sold, on average, $91,000 more than salespeople selected under the old system.Emotional intelligence is the ability to recognize your emotions, understand what they are telling you, and realize how your emotions affect people around you. Emotional intelligence also involves your perception of others:when you understand how they feel, this allows you to manage relationships more effectively.People with high emotion al intelligence are usually successful in most things they do. Why? Because they’re the ones that others want on their team. When people with high EI send an email, it gets answered. When they need help, they get it. Because they make others feel good, they go through life much more easily than people who are easily angered or upset.The good news is that emotional intelligence can be taught and developed. Many books and tests are available to help you determine your current EI, and identify where you may need to do some work.8. According to the passage, we’re all probably impressed by people who .A. are ready to help othersB. are very successful in their livesC. have high emotional intelligenceD. know how to control their temper9. By mentioning the cosmetics company, the author tries to .A. stress the importance of emotional intelligenceB. speak highly of its new salespeopleC. show its effective hiring systemD. explain what improvements it has made10. The underlined word “they” in the fourth paragraph refers to ““.A. your emotionsB. people around youC. effective relationshipsD. your opinions of others11. What’s most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?A. What emotional intelligence isB. How emotional intelligence can be improvedC. Many books on emotional intelligenceD. More people with high emotional intelligence3. 【2018·黑龙江省双鸭山市第一中学高二4月月考】DClimate change will force exhausted birds migrating to Europe from Africa to travel further, with possibly disastrous consequences, according to a study.The annual voyage of some species, which fly north in search of food and suitable habitats, could increase by as much as 400 kilometers (250 miles), the research found. “Marathon migrations for some bird s are set to become even longer,” said Stephen Willis, a professor at Durham University in Britain and the main architect of the study. “This isbad news for birds like the White throat, a common farmland bird. The added distance is a considerable threat. As temperatures rise and habitats change, birds will face their biggest challenge since the Pleistocene era (更新世), which ended 11,000 years ago,” he said in a statement.Some 500 million birds migrate each year from Africa, some weighing as little as nine grams (three-tenths of an ounce). To complete a voyage that can be thousands of kilometers long, birds have to fatten themselves up to twice their normal weight. Some even shrink their internal organs (收缩内脏) to become more fuel efficient, so any additional distance may be dangerous.The study finds that from 2007 to 2010, nine out of 17 species examined are going to face longer migrations, particularly birds that cross the Sahara Desert. Some birds travel the Sahara and the Mediterranean Sea in a one go, while others have a break in northern Africa before crossing. Many fly at night, when temperatures are cooler.A few — such as the Blackcap — have started to adapt by spending winters in Britain, but such behavior remains exceptional, the study said. The study forecasts that the migration distance of the Orphean Warbler will jump from 2,700 kilometers (1,700 miles) to between 3,050 and 3,350 kilometers (1,900 and 2,100 miles), with even longer increases for the Subalpine and Barred Warblers.12. What does traveling extra distance mean for some migrating birds?A. Better living conditions.B. Better physical health.C. Stronger ability to fly.D. Bigger threat to life.13. To complete the marathon migrations, some birds have to do the following except ______.A. have a break in the SaharaB. put on more weightC. reduce the size of internal organsD. fly at night to avoid the heat14. What can we infer from the text?A. Birds have to migrate from Africa to Europe in winter.B. Global warming is bad for all birds worldwide.C. Birds that are of small size don’t need to migrate.D. Some birds have to migrate unless they adapt to climate change.15. What’s the best title of the text?A. Climate change leads to disastrous consequenceB. The annual voyage of some speciesC. How birds migrate for longer distancesD. Climate change pushes birds to migrate farther4.【安徽省六安市第一中学2017-2018学年高二下学期第一次阶段性考试】COne day when I was 12, my mother gave me an order: I was to walk to the public library, and borrow at least one book for the summer. This was one more weapon for her to defeat my strange problem—inability to read.In the library, I found my way into the “Children’s Room.” I sat down on the floor and pulled a few books off the shelf at random. The cover of a book caught my eye. It presented a picture of a beagle. I had recently had a beagle, the first and only animal companion I ever had as a child. He was my secret sharer, but one morning, he was gone, given away to someone who had the space and the money to care for him. I never forgot my beagle.There on the book’s cover was a beagle which looked identical (相同的) to my dog. I ran my fingers over the picture of the dog on the cover. My eyes ran across the title, Amos, the Beagle with a Plan. Unknowingly, I had read the title. Without opening the book, I borrowed it from the library for the summer.Under the shade of a bush, I started to read about Amos. I read very, very slowly with difficulty. Though pages were turned slowly, I got the main idea of the story about a dog who, like mine, had been separated from his family and who finally found his way back home. The dog was my dog, and I was the little boy in the book. At the end of the story, my mind continued the final scene of reunion, on and on, until my own lost dog and I were, in my mind, running together.My mother’s call returned me to the real world. I suddenly realized something: I had read a book, and I had loved reading that book. Everyone knew I could not read. But I had read it. Books could be incredibly wonderful and I was going to read them.I never told my mother about my “miraculous” (奇迹般的) experience that summer, but she saw a slow but remarkable improvement in my classroom performance during the next year. And years later, she was proud that her son had read thousands of books, was awarded a PhD in literature, and authored his own books, articles, poetry and fiction. The power of the words was held.8. The author’s mother told him to borrow a book in order to .A. encourage him to do more walkingB. let him spend a meaningful summerC. help cure him of his reading problemsD. make him learn more about weapons9. The book caught the author’s eye because .A. it contained pretty pictures of animalsB. it reminded him of his own dogC. he found its title easy to understandD. he liked children’s stories very much10. Why could the author manage to read the book through?A. He was forced by his mother to read it.B. The happy ending of the story attracted him.C. The book told the story of his pet dog.D. He identified with the story in the book.11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. The author has become a successful writer.B. The author’s mother read the same book.C. The author’s mother rewarded him with books.D. The author has had happy summers ever since.5. 【安徽省六安市第一中学2017-2018学年高二下学期第一次阶段性考试】DIn the movie Alice in Wonderland, Alice comes across a Cheshire cat and asks the cat which road she should take. The cat responds, “Well, that depends on where you’re trying to get to.” Alice replies, “I don’t know.” T he cat responds, “Then any road will do.”You see, knowing where you’re going increases your chances dramatically of getting there, and there is no better way of “GETTING THERE” than setting your goals for the upcoming year. Think of your goals as destinat ions and the action steps as your GPS guiding and directing you. If you are like many other people, for years you have resisted the need to set goals and even laughed at the thought that setting goals and, even more importantly, committing them to writing have positive effects on your life. However, a closer look might convince you that setting goals is a sensible thing to do.In 1979, a class of Harvard MBA students was asked: Have you set clear, written goals for your future and made an action plan to accomplish them? The following will astonish you. Only 3 percent of the class had written goals and a plan in place, 13% just had goals, and an amazing 84% had no specific goals at all.Ten years later the numbers of the class were interviewed once again and the following results will no doubt give the reason for our setting goals. The findings were that the 13% who had goals were earning, on average, twice asmuch as the 84% who had no goals at all. And the 3 percent who had clear, written goals with a plan to achieve them were achieving ten times as much as the entire 97% combined.Goal setting will increase your chances of arriving successfully at your destination. Remember, always set SMART goals. Goals should be: Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, and Time-bound!12. Why does the author mention Alice in Wonderland?A. To introduce the topic.B. To recommend it to readers.C. To show its popularity.D. To criticize those with no goals.13. What does the underlined word “them” refer to?A. Action steps.B. People.C. Goals.D. Effects.14. What did the second interview find out?A. Action helped with the realization of goals.B. People with goals were certain to succeed.C. The income gap among students was bigger.D. People with goals earned the most.15. Which of the following can best serve as the title?A. Why we set goalsB. How to set goalsC. How to be successfulD. What SMART goals are6. 【湖北省孝感市八校教学联盟2017-2018学年高二下学期期中联合考试】DOne night, Pilar was in a deep sleep when she was woken by her cat In ti. Inti was meowing wildly outside Pilar’s bedroom and throwing himself against the closed bedroom door. When Pilar opened her eyes, she saw that her bedroom was filled with smoke. As she escaped her house with Inti in her arms, she saw that a fire was burning in her kitchen. Pilar could easily have lost her life, but Inti would not let that happen. Even though Inti could have escapedthe house through a cat door, he wouldn’t leave Pilar.As amazing as this story is, it is not as uncommon as you may think. Take the example of Charlotte Lee and her horse, Thunder. One summer night, the whole family was asleep with the windows open. It was normally very quiet where they lived. Suddenly, there was a loud noise. Charlotte woke up from her sweet dream, and the noise continued. Then she heard a horse running fast towards the house. The next thing she saw was Thunder standing outside her window, neighing(嘶叫) and shaking his head. She knew something was wrong. Charlotte quickly got everyone out of the house before the earthquake hit. Thunder has saved her life.There are also stories of wild animals coming to the rescue of humans. One animal known to be a friend of humans is the dolphin. Once, Todd Endris was surfing with his friends when he was attacked by a 13-foot(4-meter) shark. In the middle of the attack, a group of dolphins came to his rescue by forming a protective ring around Endris until he could get safely to shore. Without the help of the dolphins, there is little chance that Todd could have escaped.No one is sure why animals have so often come to our rescue. However, it is clear that humans and animals enjoya close relationship. It is important that we care for them as much as we can.12. Why did Inti throw himself against the door? Because_____.A. he wanted to get out of the roomB. he was trying to wake up his ownerC. he couldn’t find the way out because of smokeD. he felt bored and was playing by himself13.

Thank you so much.B. What are you doing here.C. Why are you leaving.D. Leave me alone.7. 【河北省黄骅中学2017-2018学年高二下学期第一次月考】DOf all nature 's disasters, forest fires are often considered the most frightening. Moving at lightning speed, hugewalls of flames can burn acres of land in just a few minutes. And although technology, including the use offire-retardant chemicals, has greatly helped the fight against forest fires, they still do great damage.According to the National Interagency Fire Center, the fire season last year was the worst on record in terms of the number of fires and acres burned. There were 96. 385 fires and 9.873429 acres affected by fire in a year that was125% more destructive(毁灭性的) than the10- year average. These fires cost the federal government ＄1.5 billion to fight, and this figure does not include the money spent by local and state governments as part of the effort.Fires in the southern states represented half of the national total last year with Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas being home to a usually high amount of activity. Wildfire has also taken place in Western states such as California, Colorado and Alaska throughout the past 10 years.It is said that two-thirds of forest fires are started accidentally by people. Almost one quarter are purposely set, while lighting causes 10%.Forest fires can have advantageous effects. Charcoal(木炭)enriches soil and some plant species(种类) grow well after fire. The cones of the jack pine tree, for example, will not spread their seeds unless there is heat. Douglas fir trees grow best in open sunlight areas after fire.33. Forest fires are considered to be the most frightening because____.A. fire-retardant chemicals can't be made use ofB. huge walls of flames can burn acres of landC. they make the greatest loss of all disastersD. they spread too fast and do great damage34.

She boarded a Champaign-Urbana Mass Transit District bus and exited the West Springfield and North Mathews avenues at 1:52 pm local time（1852 GMT）, police said.The FBI has labeled the case as a kidnapping but isn’t ruling out anything, said Campus police spokesman Patrick Wade. The suspect appears to be a white male who was in a car and stopped to talk to Zhang on Friday afternoon, the FBI said. Almost one month into a yearlong appointment at the UIUC campus, Zhang’s friends told police that she was heading to an apartment complex in Urbana to sign a lease（租约）.Security camera footage（连续镜头）on Monday released by university police showed that Zhang talked to the driver of a black Saturn Astra, about five blocks from where she got off a bus in Urbana on Friday afternoon. She entered the car shortly thereafter. Zhang has not been seen or heard from since then and attempts to contact her by phone remain unsuccessful. Authorities have asked the public to help identify that vehicle.A massive search has been launched in Urbana in the US state of Illinois since Zhan g’s disappearance. Police are interviewing with her colleagues, checking local hospitals and coordinating with ride-hailing（打车）companies as part of their investigative efforts.In an interview with Xinhua through Wechat on Thursday, Zhang Ronggao, father of the missing visiting scholar from China’s Fujian Province, expressed gratitude to all the people involved in the search a nd asked US police to accelerate the search.12.

Over time, the tree sap turned into amber (琥珀), preserving the lizard’s mains, which a man discovered and donated to the Miller Museu m of geology at Queen’s University. But the man didn’t report the amber’s age and where he got it.“The man who donated it died, unfortunately,” said Ellen Handyside, an undergraduate student at Queen’s University. “We are really starting from scratch in d etermining its history Ellen Handyside is leading the research into the amber-surrounded lizard. She and her colleagues analyzed the chemical composition of the 4.7-inch -long piece of amber and learned some facts. “The amber wasn’t actually artificial,” she told Live Science, “and we found that it did match up quite well to an amber sample.”The researchers analyzed the amber's carbon and hydrogen isotopes(同位素) and the results indicated that the amber was formed from the sap of a flowering tree. Moreover, the results suggested that the tree and the lizard, for that matter, lived in an area with a lot of rainfall and dated to the Neogene, a period that lasted from the end of the Paleogene Period 23.03 million years ago to the beginning of the present Quatemary Period. Next, the scientific team realized that the 2.7-inch-long lizard was likely a gecko(壁虎), according to a detailed, 3D, digital model of the animal’s body that the researchers created through X-ray microscopy scans.“We looked at the skull ---the teeth are in place and the ear bones are there too. And we’ve even got some flesh, skin and its long toes,” Handyside said. “It’s fantastic!” She said she hoped that they could figure out how the creature fit into the gecko family tree. “When you think of a gecko, you think of short and fat toes and sticky pads. That isn’t what we’re looking at, but it’s more likely to live in trees. If it were a tree-living creature, then its death actually could make more sense,” Handyside said.12. What can probably be inferred about the amber?A. It was obtained by a museum at a low price.B. Its original owner knew nothing about it.C. It was found to be a unique type of amber.D. Its donor didn't say much about its history.13. What was found about the lizard through studying isotopes?A. Its category.B. Its shape.C. Its living habit.D. Its living surroundings.14. What can we learn from Handyside’s words?A. The Lizard's death was caused by a gecko,B. The lizard has fat and short toes.C. The lizard is preserved very well.D. The lizard belongs to the tree living creature.15. What does the author mainly tell us in this passage?A. The discovery of a piece of natural amber.B. The mystery about a piece of amber.C. The research into a piece of amber.D. The meaningful death of a lizard.10.【山东省济宁市第一中学2017-2018学年高二下学期期中】CFailure is probably the most exhausting experience a person ever has. There is nothing more tiring than not succeeding.We experience this tiredness in two ways: as start-up fatigue (疲惫) and performance fatigue. In the former case, we keep putting off a task because it has either too boring or too difficult. And the longer we delay it, the more tired we feel.Such start-up fatigue is very real, even if not actually physical, not something in our muscles and bones. The solution is obvious though perhaps not easy to apply: always handle the most difficult job first.Years ago, I was asked to write 102 essays on the great ideas of some famous authors. Applying my own rule, I determined to write them in alphabetical order, never letting myself leave out a tough idea. And I always started the day’s work with the difficult task of essay-writing. Experience proved that the rule works.Performance fatigue is more difficult to handle. Though willing to get started, we cannot seem to do the job right. Its difficulties appear so great that, however hard we work, we fail again and again. In such a situation, I work as hardas I can—then let the unconscious take over.When planning Encyclopedia Britannica( 《大英百科全书》), I had to create a table of contents based on the topics of its articles. Nothing like this had ever been done before, and day after day I kept coming up with solutions, but none of them worked. My fatigue became almost unbearable.One day, mentally exhausted, I wrote down all the reasons why this problem could not be solved. I tried to convince myself that the trouble was with the problem itself, not with me. Relived, I sat back in an easy chair and fell asleep.An hour later, I woke up suddenly with the solution clearly in mind. In the weeks that followed, the solution which had come up in my unconscious mind proved correct at every step. Though I worked as hard as before, I felt no fatigue. Success was now as exciting as failure had been depressing.Human beings, I believe, must try to succeed. Success, then, means never feeling tired.8. People with start-up fatigue are most likely to .A. work hardB. delay tasksC. seek helpD. accept failure9. On what occasion does a person probably suffer from performance fatigue?A. Before starting a difficult task.B. After finding a way out.C. If the job is rather boring.D. When all the solutions fail.10. According to the author, the unconscious mind may help us .A. find the right solutionB. get some nice sleepC. gain complete reliefD. ignore mental problems11. What could be the best title for the passage?A. Success Is Built upon FailureB. How to Handle Performance FatigueC. Getting over Fatigue: A Way to SuccessD. Fatigue: An Early Sign of Health Problems11.【山东省济宁市第一中学2017-2018学年高二下学期期中】DSenses That Work TogetherWhen we think about how our senses work, we usually imagine them operating separately: you sniff a flower, and the smell is delivered uninterrupted from nose to brain. However, it’s more complex tha n that. Most evidence for cross-modal perception (知觉) comes from studies into sound and vision (视觉). But research that shows other senses crossing over is coming out all the time, and it seems that even sound and smell sometimes form an unlikely pairing.W hen New York researchers, Daniel Wesson and Donald Wilson, tried to find out the truth about a “mysterious” area of the brain called the olfactory tubercle (嗅结节)，they had to deal with this fact. Originally, they only intended to measure how olfactory tubercle cells in mice responded to smell. But during testing, Wesson noticed that every time he put his coffee cup down with a clunk (哐啷声)，the mouse cells jumped in activity. In fact, the olfactory tubercle is well-placed to receive both smell and sound information from the outside world. Later they found that among separate cells, most responded to a smell but a significant number were also active when a sound was made. Some cells even behaved differently when smell and sound were presented together, by increasing or decreasing their activity.Of course, mice aren’t people, so research team has been carrying out further experiments. They pulled together a group of people and gave them various drinks to smell. Participants were asked to sniff the drinks, and then match them to appropriate musical instruments and produce the notes at different levels. The results were interesting: piano was regularly paired with fruity fragrances; strong smells sounded like the instruments that are made of metal.Further research found that listening to different sounds can change your perceptions. Studying taste this time, the team ordered some special toffee (太妃糖)and put together “soundscapes” corresponding to bitterness and sweetness. Participants tasted similar pieces of toffee while listening to each soundscape, and found the toffee more bitter or sweeter, depending on which soundtrack they were listening to.Studies like this are helping scientists correctly describe our understanding of the senses, and how the brain combines them with its advantage. The consequences are worth considering. Could we see musicians work together with chefs to produce sound-improved food and drink? Will you be ordering a coffee with a soundtrack to bring out your favorite smell? Come to think of it, that could be one thing you hope coffee shop chains don’t get round to. 12. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 refer to?。

专题06⼤题易丢分-2017-2018学年下学期期末复习备考⾼⼀英语黄⾦30题（解析版）⼤题易丢分（20题）1. D【河北省冀州市中学2017-2018学年⾼⼀3⽉⽉考】Some people think that success is only for those with talent or those who grow up in the right family, and others believe that success mostly comes down to luck. I’m not going to say luck, talent, and circumstances don’t come into play because they do. Some people are born into the right family while others are born with great intelligence, and that’s just the reality of how life is.However, to succeed in life, one first needs to set a goal and then gradually make it more practical. And, in addition to that, in order to get really good at something, one needs to spend at least 10,000 hours studying and practicing. To become great at certain things, it’ll require even more time, time that most people won’t put in.This is a big reason why many successful people advise you to do something you love. If you don’t enjoy what you do, it is going to feel like unbearable pain and will likely make you quit well before you ever become good at it.When you see people exhibiting some great skills or having achieved great success, you know that they have put in a huge part of their life to get there at a huge cost. It’s sometimes easy to think they got lucky or they were born with some rare talent, but thinking that way does you no good, and there’s a huge chance that you’re wrong anyway.Whatever you do, if you want to become great at it, you need to work day in and day out, almost to the point of addiction, and over a long period of time. If you’re not willing to put in the time and work, don’t expect to receive any rewards. Consistent, hard work won’t guarantee you the level of success you may want, but it will guarantee that you will become really good at whatever it is you put all that work into.12. Paragraph 1 mainly talks about ________.A. the reasons for successB. the meaning of successC. the standards of successD. the importance of success13. In Paragraph 2, the underlined word refers to ______.A. being good at somethingB. setting a practical goalC. putting in more timeD. succeeding in life14. Successful people suggest doing what one loves because ______.A. work makes one feel painB. one tends to enjoy his workC. one gives up his work easilyD. it takes a lot of time to succeed15. What is the main theme of the passage?A. Having a goal is vital to success.B. Being good is different from being great.C. One cannot succeed without time and practice.D. Luck, talent and family help to achieve success.【答案】12. A 13. B 14. D 15. C14. 细节理解题。

"The number one question immediately we get from paren ts is ‘what happens if it rains?’ And we say, ‘Bring an extra pair of clothes!’" Jenkins adds, "We still educate them. They also get energy. Their brains are working when they re moving. So, our goal is to always be outside."The Farm School is a preschool-a place for three-and four-year-olds to learn and play. Teacher Alison Huff has taught at other schools. She says The Farm School gives its students more of a hands-on learning experience. For example, children use pumpkins to learn about colors and counting. They learn about measurements by planting seeds 30 centimeters apart. Huff says "We can use everything a regular preschool uses, but out in the garden."Apart from planting vegetables and fruits, students help prepare food and clean up afterward. The school teaches the children to cook using the food they have grown. "They can see the advantages of what they have in the garden and taste it then instead of going to the grocery store and buying it," Huff says.The preschoolers also lean words in languages other than English. Huff speaks in both English and Spanish. Her assistant speaks French and Arabic. She adds that a 3-year-old in her class speaks four different languages.Farm animals are also an important part of the education program. Jaclyn Jenkins says the children learn about a different animal every month. Two months ago, she says, that animal was a cow. The children spent another monthwith a large bird-a turkey.The children come home with new experiences, new knowledge and sometimes a few vegetables.1. What worries parents most about the school?A. Children have to learn outside.B. There are too many things to learn.C. How to deal with it when it rains.D. Whether there are enough teachers.2.

It was the coolest thing that could have ever happened in my life. How many times do we really realize the lives we’ve touched, the manner in which we’ve touched them, and that these are memories that stay with them for life?Despite being young when they were taught by Flexer, students easily recalled the heartwarming notes she wrote them on report cards, the ways she helped them overcome shyness and awkwardness, and how she inspired them to future academic success to earn scholarships and advanced degrees.Even though Flexer hadn’t seen some of the former students for decades, she instantly remembered the names of every single one there.A scrapbook(剪贴簿) of her career was presented to her as one student after another recalled the effect Flexer had on his or her life.“I’ve had many opportunities to move to a school closer to my home, but I said ‘Cole gave me so much in my life that when I retire, I will retire from Cole school and give back what’s been given to me, ’” Flexer said. “My career could have taken me nowhere that would have made me happier.

I had never been to Russia and my impression of that country was formed by what I heard and saw on television and in the newspaper. We were to be picked up at the airport by a driver who would then take us to the hotel and then go sightseeing. We arrived on time, got our baggage and went to the gate, but no one was waiting holding a sign with our names.We had the phone number of the driver and the travel agency but no phone worked in Russia. I noticed a young woman sitting next to me with a cell phone so I asked her if she spoke English and she replied “Yes”. Should she please call our driver, I would pay for the call, I asked. “No problem,” she replied and called both numbers but no one answered.A Russian woman holding a sign with someone’s name on it, not ours, must have overheard this conversation and took the paper and called both numbers. Again, no one answered.

For the first time, researchers have created a robot that can take a beating (挨打) and keep on working. Developed by scientists from Cornell University and the University of Vermont, the new robot looks like a spider with four legs.Until now, even the most advanced robot was almost certain to break down when damaged. That’s because its computer doesn’t k now how to operate the machine after its shape has been changed.To solve this problem, the scientists put some sensors (传感器) into the machine. The sensors can read how the machine is working and send signals to the computer.Using this information, the system follows a new way to tell the machine’s shape at any given moment. The computer considers a lot of possible next steps, and it calculates how best to move the robot forward the longest possible distance, before trying to move it again.The new technology is a major advance in robotics(机器人技术)，scientists say. It may someday help researchers create better artificial arms and legs that give new freedom to people who lack them. The new know ledge might also help scientists understand how people and animals tell their own sense of place in space.“Designing robots that can fit changing environments has been a difficult problem, ”says scientist Olaf Sporns of Indiana University. “This work provides a new way toward solving this important problem.”12. Why do robots easily break down v hen they are damaged?A. They cannot repair themselves.B. The computer has changed a lot.C. They have nothing special to protect them.D. The computer cannot operate a changed robot.13. How do the sensors in the robot work?A. They can replace the computer w hen it’s broken.B. They can find out where the damage comes from.C. They help the compu ter learn the robot’s condition.D. They can send signals to the person who uses the robot.14. The underlined word “them”in Paragraph 5 refers to “”.A. robotsB. arms and legsC. sensorsD. researchers15. What does Olaf Sporns think of the new robot?A. He does not express his opinions clearly.B. He doubts if it can work well in real life.C. He thinks it is a great development in robotics.D. He thinks more experiments are needed to test it.5.D【广东省珠海市第一中学2017—2018学年高一下学期开学】Pokemon GO has become the most successful mobile game. It is now played in about 70 countries. While the game clearly has many fans, not everyone thinks the latest Pokemon fever is a good thing.To play Pokemon GO, users follow maps on their phones that show virtual (虚拟的) animals, called Pokemon, in real-life places. Players have to walk around those places in search of Pokemon and try to catch as many as possible, which attracts kids most.Fans of the game say it gets kids off the sofas and encourages them to play in new places and make new friends. That’s what Christine Elgersma, a senior app editor (编辑), thinks about it. And some educators are finding that Pokemon GO can also improve kids’ map skills.Brain scientist Kristen Race says that kids pay so much attention t o their phones that it doesn’t matter that they are outside. She warns that Pokemon GO gets in the way of real imaginative play. She argues that “even though a child may be playing this game outside, his brain is working in the same way it would as if he were spending hours inside. ”There are some risks in playing Pokemon GO as well. Being distracted because of the game is one of the biggest dangers. People have walked into things, fallen down, and even been hit by cars while playing.Elgersma says there are plenty of things kids can do to stay safe while playing Pokemon GO. She advises kids to discuss with their parents what they are allowed to do before playing. They should also pay careful attention to their surroundings (环境)and avoid talking to strangers. Finally, they should limit the amount of time they spend playing.“Just like every other game, Pokemon GO should be used in balance with other things,” says Elgersma. “If it is, it can be a really great way for a family to have fun together.”32. The greatest joy of playing Pokemon GO for kids is .A. to learn knowledge of geography on mapsB. to look for Pokemon here and there and catch themC. to hide themselves and not to be found by PokemonD. to travel around the world without going out of their rooms33.

B【甘肃省天水市第一中学2017-2018学年高一下学期开学考试】Some of the most painful moments I spend as a vet (兽医) are those spent with my customers assisting my animal patients from this world to the next. Making this final decision is not easy, and I have often felt powerless to comfort the sorrowful owners.That was before I met Shane.I had been called to examine a ten-year-old dog named Belker who had developed a serious health problem. The dog’s owner—Ron, his wife, Lisa, and their little boy, Shane-we’re hoping for a miracle (奇迹). But I told the family there were no miracles left for Belker, and offered to perform the euthanasia (安乐死) for the old dog in their home. As we made the arrangements, Ron and Lisa told me they bought it would be good for the four-year-old Shane to observe the euthanasia. They felt Shane could learn something from the experience.The next day, I felt the familiar catch in my throat as Belker’s family surrounded him. Shane seemed so calm, patting the old dog for the last time, that I wondered if he understood what was going on.A few minutes later, Belker slipped peacefully away. The little boy seemed to accept Belker’s death without any difficulty of confusion. We sat together for a little while after Belker’s death, wondering aloud about the sad fact tha t animal lives are shorter than human lives.Shane, who had been listening quietly, piped up: “I know why.’’Shocked, we all turned to him. What came out of his mouth next astonished me. I’d never heard a more comforting explanation.He said, “Everybody is born so they can learn how to live a good life: like loving everybody and being nice, right?” The four-year-old continued,” “Well, animals already know how to do that, so they don’t have to stay as long.”4. Shane’s parents wanted Shane to witness the eut hanasia mainly because .A. they hoped he could gain something from itB. they knew he hated to part with BelkerC. they wanted him to remember Belker foreverD. they intended him to learn to carry out euthanasia5.

My worry made me reluctant to let smokers hold my babies even though they didn’t smoke in my house.Tests for its effects have been only carried out on m ice, but I don’t think they can be ignored. Researchers at California University last month suggested third-hand smoke (THS) could cause type2 diabetes, liver and lung damage.They analyzed how people are affected by taking in smoke from another person’s clothing, hair, home, or car. They say they can see an impact on the brain and liver. Lead author Manucla Martins-Green said: “Our goal was to decide the smallest amount of time required to cause physiological changes in mice when they are expose(暴露) to TH S.” This was done using an exposure system that is the same as human exposure.“We found THS exposure as early as one month caused liver damage. Exposure for two months lead to further molecular(分子的)damage, and at four to six months caused even more such damage. We also found the mice showed insulin resistance (抗胰岛素) after long-term exposure.”“THS is a hidden danger a silent killer. Pollutants can be absorbed through the skin, and through breathing.”“Although our research was not done on humans. people sh ould be aware that hotel rooms, cars and homes that were used by smokers are very likely to be polluted with THS.” Martins-Green believes most people don’t know they’re being exposed to THS, or don’t believe in the damage it can do.THS toxins(不经意素) remain on surfaces for many years, and resist even strong cleaning agents.12. When do you suffer third-hand smoke?A. You smoke a cigarette yourself.B. You stay with a smoker who is smoking.C. You sit on a sofa where a smoker smoked.D. You smoke with another two smokers.13. What does the underlined word mean?A. Unwilling.B. Happy.C. Thankful.D. Angry14. Why should we be careful about third-hand smoke?A. It is the most dangerous.B. It can cause health problems.C. It can be easily ignored.D. It can never be cleaned.15. What is the best title of the passage?A. ’Third-hand smoke is everywhere.B. The ways to avoid third-hand smoke.C.

D【河南省林州市第一中学2017-2018学年高一下学期开学考试】Each year more than 2,500 people die and 12,600 are injured in home fires just in the United States, with direct property（财产）loss because of home fires at about $7.3 billion every year. Every day Americans experience the horror of fires, but most people don’t understand fires.To protect yourself, it is important to learn something about home fires.In less than 30 seconds a small flame can get completely out of control and turn into a major fire. It only takes minutes for thick black smoke to fill a house or for it to be in flames. Most deadly fires occur in the home when people are asleep. If you realize a fire, you won’t have time to take valuables because the fire spreads too quickly and the smoke is too thick. The fire uses up the oxygen you need and produces smoke and poisonous gases that kill. Breathing even small amounts of smoke and toxic gases can make you tired and sleepy, and short of breath. The smoke can cause you to be a deep sleeper before the flames reach your door. You may not wake up in time to escape.Room temperatures in a fire can be 100 degrees at floor level and rise to 600 degrees at eye level. Breathing in this super-hot air will burn your lungs. It can melt clothes to your skin. In five minutes, a room can get so hot that everything in it starts to burn at once.Fires are bright at first, but quickly produce black smoke and complete darkness. If you wake up to a fire you may be blinded, confused about where you are or which direction you should go and unable to find your way around the home you’ve lived in for years.Only when we know the true nature of fires can we prepare our families and ourselves.12. How does the first paragraph develop?A. By raising questions.B. By giving examples.C. By expressing opinions.D. By listing reasons.13. What can we infer from the third paragraph?A. It is necessary to escape in time.B. It is important to find poisonous gases.C. It is impossible to keep away from smoke.D. It is dangerous to sleep away from the door.14. How does black smoke trouble us?A. Getting us lose our ways.B. Making our faces turn black.C. Causing us to feel hopeless.D. Forcing us to walk around the home.15. What is the passage mainly telling us?A. Different processes of home fires.B. Some basic knowledge of home fires.C. Great damage of them fires in the USA.D. Some good ways to prevent home fires.9.C【河北省廊坊市省级示范高中联合体2017-2018学年高一下学期第二次联考】Yasuda is 95 years old. Looking for easier ways to search the Web and send email, he bought Apple’s iPad. The company ha s sold 3.27 million iPads since they entered the market in April. Although it’s impossible to know with certainty how many seniors (老年人) are buying them, evidence suggests that it’s a hit with seniors.The iPad’s intuitive interface (直观界面) makes it attractive to seniors around the world, says Takahiro Miura, a researcher at the University of Tokyou. “The iPad is a good tool for seniors because it’s very easy to use,” he says. Unlike the PC, it doesn’t require former knowledge.”James Cordwell, a researcher in London, says the iPad’s popularity with seniors is helping Apple reach beyond its traditional base of young customers. “The world’s population, especially in developed markets, is getting older. It’s probably a market where Apple has least entered,” Cor dwell says. Senior users are a key source of growth for them in the future.Seniors make. up about 22 percent of the population in Japan. They may prove that seniors are willing to acceptthe iPad. Besides the customer group under 30, they spend more than any other group in the country, according to a report. Motoo Kitamura, 78, a former gas salesman, bought an iPad to help him communicate with his 2-year-old grandson and prevent him from experiencing some of the mental problems that sometimes come with getting older. “Trying new things like that is good mental exercise,” he says.8.

Seniors in Japan are fond of buying latest hi-tech products.11.

D【贵州省铜仁市第一中学2017-2018学年高一下学期开学考试】Today, we are told , children don’t spend enough time in the fresh air. Many of them are addicted to a screen either on a computer or a TV—they seem to be living in a virtual world. They have lost touch with nature.But now 400 organizations in the UK, from playgroups to the National Health Service, are encouraging children to have some “wild time”. They want kids to swap at least 30 minutes of watching TV or playing computer games fortime playing outside. Activities such as building dens, climbing trees, rummaging for conkers and playing hide and seek are just some of the things kids can do. Even if they live in a city, they can go on adventures in the garden or the park.Children often need a helping hand from mom and dad. They need to be shown what to do and where to go. Andy Simpson from National Health Service says, “We want parents to see what this magical wonder product does for their kids’ development, independence and creativity., by giving wild time a go”.So despite the complicated world that young people grow up in now, it seems that going back to basics and experiencing “nature’s playground” is what modern children need. David Bond from Project Wild Thing says, “We need to make more space for wild time in children’s daily routine, freeing this generation of kids to have the sort of experiences that many of us took for granted”.This might sound a bit old fashioned to you or maybe, like me, it’s made you think about sticking on your boots, getting outdoors and relie ving your childhood. There’s no age limit on enjoying yourself!32. What’s the best title of the text?A. Wild time for childrenB. Benefits of wild timeC. More space for childrenD. Adventures of children33.
