Do most men hate shopping with women? Forum (论坛)readers share their opinions.YinsXZ (US)Hey, that is an absolutely nice idea. I like it. It also makes it easier for women who have lots of bags to be able to drop them off at the nursery for boyfriends to watch over while they return to shop for more! Set it up with wifi too and you have a perfect hang out spot. And most importantly, don' t have to wait for complaints from the woman when I stop to look at computers or tools!SunnylinOl (China)Most women like shopping while most men don' t. Men generally don' t spend hours deciding color, comparison shopping or finding the sale prices. They know what they want,get in, buy them and get out, 10-15 minutes and they' re done. This is quite different from how a woman shops. Going from store to store, trying to find the best ones. The trying will spend hours.Seneca (a foreigner in China)Many women view shopping as an entertaining way to get down from high stress levels. My wife is one of those. Stress comes too naturally to her; driving a car, doing her job, dealing with workmates all lead to some rising of her stress level. So shopping ideally happens every day. For me, that amount of shopping is stressful.Blonde Amber (Ireland)Some men take hours comparing products, trying things out, finding sales prices. They don' t always know what they want but enjoy just looking. Men can shop the same as women for things they are interested in and spend hours doing it. Equally not all women like shopping and go in, 10-15 minutes and they are done. People are not black and white, and don' t fit into boxes.56.According to forum readers, which is Not the benefit of opening a u husband nursery" ?A.Men can escape the complaints from women.B.Women can enjoy shopping more with bags left in men' s care.C.Women can finish their shopping in a shorter time.D.Men can relax themselves when women are shopping.57.Which saying below can best describe SunnylinOl and Seneca' s opinion?A.One man' s meat is another man' s poison.B.Joy and sorrow are next-door neighbors.C. A good wife makes a good husband.D.Experience is the mother of wisdom.58.The underlined sentence in the last paragraph implies that .A.black people and white people are different in sizeB.people with different skins have different viewsC.people shouldn' t draw general conclusion blindlyD.shopping is not suitable for all kinds of people2、Driving Offence Points SystemWhat is Driving Offence Points System?After the introduction of this system, certain traffic offences will earn the driver points besides other punishment.

Just like the Internet was 10 years ago, blogging is popular with an underground culture that is doing it for love and passion.Blogging is a way of collecting links to webpages and sharing thoughts and ideas with people online. Blogs are basically online journals or diaries which are created for sharing information and ideas.Dominic, a fifth-grade student, writes: "The blogs give us a chance to communicate between ourselves and inspire us to write more. When we publish on our blog, people across the entire world can respond by using the 'comments' link. In this way, they canask questions or simply tell us what they like. We can then know if people like what we write and this indicates to us where we can improve. By reading these comments, we can discover our weaknesses and our strengths. Blogging is an opportunity to exchange our points of view with the rest of the world rather than just people in our immediate environment. ”Blogging is sweeping the Internet. A recent report noted that at least three million Americans have created blogs, with similar numbers being seen worldwide.Two years ago, Andrew Sullivan decided to set up a Web page himself and used "Blogger, com" to publish some daily musings （冥想）to a readership （读者人数）of a few hundred. He worked hard at the blog for months for no financial reward. But the result is that he is now reaching almost a quarter of a million readers a month and making a profit.Think about it for a minute: Why not build an online presence with your daily musings and then tell your first book through print-on-demand （POD） technology direct from your Web site? Why should writers go to newspapers and magazines to get an essay published when they can simply write it themselves, change it into a PDF file, and charge a few bucks per download?This, at least, is the idea: a publishing revolution more profound than anything since the printing press, ^Blogger, com" could be to words what Napster was to music一except this time, it' 11 really work.62.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A.Blogs are mainly online chatting with others.B.Blogging is important in the past few years.C.Dominic wants to get a chance to be a writer.D.Blogging makes us exchange our view only with friends63.According to the passage, about people worldwide have created blogs except Americans.A. 250, 000B. 750, 000C. 3 millionD. 6 million64.From the passage we can see that "Napster" in the last paragraph is probably related to .A. newspapersB. readersC. wordsD. music65.What would be the best title of this passage?A. What is BloggingB. Blog is Your FavoriteC. Blogging Goes Mainstream （主流）D. A Publishing Revolution4、If you took the strengths of others and compared them to your weaknesses, would this make you feel good? The funny thing is that this is what most of us do at one time or another一and some of us do it pretty often. It's a sure-fire recipe for a drop in self-confidence and for unhappiness. So how can we stop comparing ourselves with others? Here are some tips I've found useful.Awareness.Most often we do these social comparisons without realizing we're doing it. It's a natural act, I suppose. So the solution is to become aware. If you focus on these thoughts for a few days, it will become much easier with practice, and soon it'11 be hard not to notice.Stop yourself.Once you realize you，re making these comparisons, stop yourself. Don，t feel bad一just admit the thought, and gently change the focus.Count your blessings.Focus on what you do have, and on what you are already blessed with. Count what you have, not what you don，t have. Think about how lucky you are to have what you have, to have the people in your life who care about you. If you always want what others have, you will never have enough. You will always want more. That's an endless cycle, and it will never lead to happiness. Instead, learn to realize that what you have is already enough.Focus on your strengths.Instead of looking at your weaknesses, ask yourself what your strengths are. Be proud of them. Work on using them to your best advantage.No one is perfect一we all know that. But we seem to feel bad when we don，t reach perfection. You aren，t perfect and you never will be. Keep trying to improve, butdon，t think you，11 ever be the "perfect person”. If you realize that imperfection is what makes you who you are, you are already perfect.五、书面表达（共1题）1、随着高科技的发展，网络为越来越多的人所使用，不同的人有不同的看法，针对其利弊, 人们展开了激烈的讨论：With the rapid development of the Internet, it has been influencing our daily life tremendously.

The Internet has transformed our lives and the way we communicate, how we learn, and how we work. And people' s opinions vary in the light of its effects.Some people are convinced that the Internet plays an active role in our lives since we can benefit a lot from it. Firstly, it is more convenient than ever before for people to search for all sorts of information they need. Meanwhile, the Internet has greatly shortened the distance among human beings, and helps build social bonds between people. What, s more, people can turn to the Internet for help when they have problems.However, others assume that the Internet has a negative effect on people' s lives. Uncontrolled information on the Internet, such as crime and violence, may do great harm to teenagers. Addicted to paying computer games, some students feel worn out and absent-minded in class. What, s worse, not all the information on the Internet is accurate, which may lead to people being taken in by false information.From my perspective, Internet itself is neither right nor wrong. Only if we take theright attitude towards surfing the Internet can we benefit from it. Nobody can hold back the progress pace of the Internet. If we resisted it, we would certainly lag behind others. What we should do is to take full use of its advantages and try to avoid the harms it may bring as well.六、未分类1、c。

Detective Earl Blackman was to work on the case. Everyone was in the dark before an art professor came to point out the false picture. So the museum even didn’t know when the picture had been stolen. Thousands of people came to visit the museum every day. After long work, some art students were focused on.The five students who had made copies of the Renoir during the last six months were asked to bring their copies to the museum. The fifth student said she had sold her copy, which was later proved to be the one in the museum. She, however, could only remember the buyer was a man with the little finger on his left hand missing. Blackman went back and stayed in his office looking at all the pictures of known thieves. No success.The next afternoon, at about closing time, Blackman went to the museum to ask if the cleaning men were in the museum after everyone else had left. The director told him they had no cleaning man but six cleaning women.As the detective left the director’s office, he saw five cleaning women. He stopped one and asked about her work. Then came the sixth cleaning woman. She was dressed just like the other women except the gloves on her hands which made her different. Blackman watched her for some time.

There are steel monsters blocking out the sun, blowing out dangerous smoke, and letting out poisonous chemicals into rivers, cars producing harmful waste gas, people throwing out waste in a wrong way and all other kinds of sources that ruin the planet. Facing current environmental problems, people need to do their best to save the Earth.You can see many big garbage dustbins in the streets. They’re not there for a show, but for you to drop your waste. We should realize that what a little we do does count. So next time you get that urge to throw gum or a chocolate package out of the car window, or “ accidentally” drop as you walk down the street, ask yourself how much waste you’ve been contributing to the environment with that bad habit going on for years.At home, the first thing we can do to protect the environment is avoid letting water run continuously and make sure that taps（水龙头）are not leaky（泄露的），which would help greatly in scrimping. Another is to use energy-saving lights, and turn them off before you leave the rooms. It’s not only energy-saving, but also cuts down electricity costs.Recycling is a method to make items reusable. Many things you want to throw out can be made into new products through the reproducing process. Use your imagination to come up with ways on things that you can use again.Pass the message of simple ways to save the environment on to kids. Starting with kids is a good way of teaching the message early in their lives, in the hope that they can carry it forward as they grow older.With environmental protection awareness in mind, we can do what we can, for the results are to have a big effect on the planet. As long as we do our part, the world is one small step closer to being saved.【1】The underlined word “scrimping” in the third paragraph can be replaced by _____.A．saving B．cleaning C．cooking D．drinking【2】From the fifth paragraph, we can know that ________.A．protecting the environment begins with small choresB．protecting the environment should start from childhood.C．wonderful life comes from environmental protectionD．protecting the environment benefits the country and the people【3】Which of the following isn’t true?A．The more people do their part, the greener the environment will be.B．Selling what you don’t want any more is a kind of recycling.C．To protect the environment may help you save some money.D．Your bad habits for the environment are a valuable contribution.【4】Which of the following can be the best title for this passage?A．The Use of Garbage DustbinB．How to Save Water and ElectricityC．How to Save the EnvironmentD．Our Current Environmental Problems3.By 2050 there will have been an extra 2.5 billion people on earth. And what will they eat?To solve the problem, we should have to double our food production. We can also develop a diet of algae（海藻）, insects and meat grown in laboratories.Algae can grow very quickly at sea, in polluted water and in places that would normally kill food crops. They are already eaten widely in Japan and China and they are eaten by almost everything from shrimps to blue whales. They can fix CO2 in the atmosphere and provide fats and sugars.Man-made meat looks like meat, feels like meat and it is meat, although it’s never been from a living, breathing animal. Instead, it is grown from cells in big containers. Moreover, studies show that producing man-made meat will use far less water, energy and land.China has developed “green super rice”, a series of rice types which produce more grain and have stronger ability to fight against floods, salty water, insects and disease. We used traditional plant breeding（作物育种）techniques to cross-breed more than 250 rice types. Green super rice, which is enough to feed an extra 100 million people, will be planted widely in the coming years.Insects like ants are not on most European menus but at least 1,400 kinds are eaten across Africa, Latin America and Asia. Now, with rising food prices and worldwide land shortages, such insects are getting more and more popular. Not only are many insects rich in protein（蛋白质）, low in fat and high in Ca and Fe, but insect farms need little space. And they can grow well on paper, algae and industrial wastes.【1】In order to exist in the future, people have to _______.A．move to other planetsB．produce rain in laboratoriesC．build new laboratories for food researchD．increase the food production or look for other food sources【2】From the second paragraph we know that _______A．algae have a strong life forceB．few people eat algae nowC．algae have few values for human beingsD．algae can pollute our environment【3】Green super rice _______A．has to be watered with salty waterB．can grow even in a bad environmentC．includes no more than 250 rice kindsD．was developed with new technologies【4】What can we learn from the passage?A．Green super rice is delicious but high in price.B．In Asia about 100 million people may be faced with food shortages.C．Man-made meat doesn’t look like meat but has the same taste as real meat.D．One of the reasons why many people begin to eat insects is their rich food value.4.It was unusually quiet in the emergency room on December 25.I was nurse on duty that day. I didn’t think there would be any patients, sighing about having to work on Christmas. Just then five bodies showed up at my desk, a pale woman and four small children.“Are you all sick?” I asked suspiciously.“Yes,” she said weakly and lowered her head.But when it came to descriptions of their presenting problems, things got a little vague. Two of the children had headaches, but the headaches weren’t accompanied by the normal body lang uage of holding the head or trying to keep it still. Two children had earaches, but only one could tell me which ear was affected. The mother complained of a cough but seemed to work to produce it.Something was wrong, but I didn’t say anything but explain ed that it might be a little while before a doctor saw her. She responded, “Take your time; it’s warm here.”On a hunch (出于直觉), I checked the chart after the admitting clerk had finished registering the family. No address---they were homeless. The waiting room was warm.I looked out at the family huddled by the Christmas tree. The little one was pointing at the television and exclaiming something to her mother. The oldest one was looking at an ornament on the Christmas tree.I went back to the nurses’ stati on and mentioned we had a homeless family in the waiting room. The nurses, grumbling about working Christmas, turned to compassion for a family just trying to get warm on Christmas. The team went into action, much as we do when there’s a medical emergency. But this one was a Christmasemergency.We were all offered a free meal in the hospital cafeteria on Christmas Day, so we claimed that meal and prepared a banquet for our Christmas guests. We needed presents. We put together oranges and apples in a basket. We collected from different departments candies, crayons and other things available that could be presents. As seriously as we met the physical needs of the patients that came to us that day, our team worked to meet the needs, and exceed the expectations, of a family who just wanted to be warm on Christmas Day. Later, as the family walked to the door to leave, the four year old came running back, gave me a hug and whispered, “Thanks for being our angels today.”【1】Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?A．Working Christmas DayB．Christmas Day is ComingC．A Happy FamilyD．A Pale Woman and Four Small Children【2】What kind of person do you think the author is?A．Hardworking and outgoingB．Serious and carefulC．Hardworking and warmheartedD．Serious and stubborn【3】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A．Something was wrong with one of the children’s heads.B．The pale woman forgot to write the address.C．The author did not understand the truth.D．The children’s mother told a lie.【4】It can be inferred from the text that______.A．The author didn’t think there would be any patients on Christmas DayB．The woman was uncomfortable when she lowered her headC．The family appeared in the emergency room on Christmas EveD．The woman and four small children were satisfied and grateful四、其他Are people less happy or more happy the older they get? If you answered more happy, then you were right, based on a study published two years ago. It found that people generally become happier and experience less worry after age fifty. In fact, it found that by the age of eighty-five, people are happier with their life than they were at eighteen.The findings came from a Gallup survey of more than three hundred forty thousand adults in the United States in 2008. At that time, the people were between the ages of eighteen and eighty-five.Arthur Stone in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Science at Stony Brook University in New York led the study. His team found that levels of stress were highest among adults between the ages of 22 and 25. Stress levels dropped sharply after people reached their fifties.Happiness was highest among the youngest adults and those in their early seventies. But the people least likely to report negative emotions were those in their seventies and eighties.The survey also found that men and women have similar emotional patterns as they grow older. However, women at all ages reported more sadness, stress and worry than men did.The researchers also considered possible influence like having young children, being unemployed or being single. But they found that influences like these did not affect the levels of happiness and well-being related to age.So why would happiness increase with age? One theory is that, as people get older, they become more thankful for all that they have and have better control of their emotions. They also spend less time thinking about bad experiences.Happiness is not the only thing that apparently improves with age. In a study published this year, people in theireighties reported the fewest problems with the quality of their sleep.Researchers surveyed more than 150,000 American adults. The study, led by Michael Grander at the University of Pennsylvania, appeared in the journal Sleep.The original goal was to confirm the popular belief that aging is connected with increased sleep problems. The survey did find an increase during middle age, especially in women. But except for that, people reported that they felt their sleep quality improved as they got older.五、书面表达众所周知，这些年我国经济发展迅速，可是环境污染也越来越严重，发展经济与环境保护之间的关系问题一直为社会各界所关注。

City Rail services17.With a Sydney Pass，a traveler can ______ ．A. save fares from and to the airportB. take the Sydney Explorer to beachesC. enjoy the famous seafood for freeD. reserve seats easily in a restaurant18.If 5-day tickets were to be recommended to a mother who travelled with her colleague andher children，aged 3，6and 10，what would the lowest cost be？______A. 225B. 300C. 360D. 420．【答案】【小题1】D 【小题2】A 【小题3】C【解析】56．D．细节理解题．根据第一段最后一句话"…CityRail services（limited area）"可知，这个旅行游览项目是不提供无限制乘坐的．故答案为D项．57．A．细节理解题．根据第三段最后一句话可知答案，所有的"悉尼之行"包括"…a free Airport Express inward trip before starting your 3.5 or 7 days，and the return trip is valid for two months from the first day your ticket is used．"可知用悉尼通行证，旅行者较少机票费用；故选A．58．C．细节理解题．计算票价花费，成年人每人120，两个成年人240，3岁的孩子免费，所以两个孩子费用是120，总共花费是360．故选C项．本文属于说明文阅读，作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了A Sydney Pass 可以带游客带来哪些方面的益处．考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力，做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确的选择．在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断．BScientists have long wondered what benefit zebras might get from their fancy black-and-white coats．Those stripes（条纹）may be most useful as protection from biting flies，a recent study concludes．Biologists studied zebras and other closely related African animals．They tested five popular ideas about how the stripes might function．No evidence emerged to support most of these notions，Tim Caro told Science News．As a wildlife biologist，he works at the University of California，Davis．①．Some scientists had proposed those stripes help zebras hide from predators，such as lions，or confuse them．Still others suggested that those stripes might offer some cooling or help the animals in forming social groups．②．Instead，the stripes appear to help the animals avoid the bite of bloodthirsty flies．This finding supports some studies had found signs that flies prefer solids to stripes when hunting for a landing place．③．To test all of the theories，Caro's group used geographic information．They looked at where in Africa the 20different types of animals belonging to the genus （类别）equus lived．Some of these equines（马科动物）have stripes，including zebras and asses（驴）with striped legs．Others are stripe-free．These include other asses and wild horses．The scientists found no connection between stripes and whether the animals lived in woodsy areas．That suggests stripes don't camouflage（伪装）zebras in those places．The scientists also saw no link between where striped animals lived and where lions hunted．In the studies，researchers found that lions ate plenty of zebras．The new observations suggest stripes don't confuse the predators．The experts also looked for---and found---no evidence that stripes cool the zebras or help them recognize each another when forming social groups．④．Striped animals often live in places where the environment is just right much of the year for biting flies to flourish．In those areas，horseflies，tsetse flies and other biting flies spread fatal diseases to zebras and horses．That connection now suggests stripes may help zebras reduce the number of bites and the infections they can spread．The study doesn't answer how the zebra got its stripes in the first place，Caro admits．Science may never know．Inns Cuthill is a biologist at England's University of Bristol．He finds the new study"convincing"．Until now，Cuthill's favorite hypothesis had been that zebra stripes confused predators．It's too soon to say the mystery of the zebra's stripes has been solved，he notes．But he says that keeping flies away is now probably"the leading contender"．19.According to the recent study，the stripes in zebras may be used to ______ ．A. offer some cooling when it is hotB. help them hide from or confuse predatorsC. protect themselves from being bitten by fliesD. help them in forming social groups20.The missing sentence"None of those ideas make sense．"can be put in ______ ．A. ①B. ②C. ③D. ④21.It can be inferred from the passage that ______ ．A. the study answers how the zebra got its stripesB. flies prefer solids to stripes when seeking a landing placeC. Cuthill now tends to believe the new theoryD. the mystery of the zebra's stripes will be solved soon22.Which of the following can best serve as the title of this passage？______A. One Plus to Wearing StripesB. How Does Zebra Get StripesC. Mystery SolvedD. Zebra's Stripes．【答案】【小题1】C 【小题2】B 【小题3】C 【小题4】A【解析】59．答案：C．细节理解题．根据"Those stripes（条纹） may be most useful as protection from biting flies，a recent study concludes．"可知，最近地一项研究得出结论，这些条纹是为了防止蚊虫叮咬的．故选C．60．答案：B．句意理解题．此句句意为"这些想法是无意义的"．根据"Instead，the stripes appear to help the animals avoid the bite of bloodthirsty flies．This finding suppor ts some studies had found signs that flies prefer solids to stripes when hunting for a landing pl ace．"可知，相反，条纹出现来帮助动物避免被蚊子咬等．故此句放在该句之前符合语境．故选B．61．答案：C．推理判断题．根据"Inns Cuthill is a biologist at England's University of Bristol．He finds the new study"convin cing"．"可知，Cuthill开始相信这个学说了．故选C．62．答案：A．主旨大意题．根据全文内容，本文主要讲述了斑马有黑白条纹的原因．故A符合文章内容．故选A．本文是一篇科教类阅读，属于说明文，科学家们一直想知道斑马可能会受益于他们的黑白外衣，最近的一项研究发现，这些条纹可能是防止蚊虫的叮咬的最有效方法．本文以此展开谈论，主要讲述了斑马黑白条纹的作用．本文是一篇科教类阅读，题目涉及多道细节理解题，句意理解题，推理判断题，主旨大意题．做题时学生应仔细阅读原文，把握文章主要内容，联系文章上下文内容并结合所给选项含义，从中选出正确答案，一定要做到有理有据，切忌胡乱猜测．CPhantom vibrations──the phenomenon where you think your phone is vibrating but it'snot──have been around since the mobile age．Today，they're so common that researchers have devoted studies to them．For Valerie Kusler，who works on a cattle farm，the feeling is complicated by the cows．"The cows'moo is very muffled，it kind of sounds like…errrrrr，"she says，"So that's very similar to what my phone sounds like when it vibrates on my desk or in my purse．"Other people may not confuse cows for their phones，but research shows phantom vibration symptom is a near-universal experience for people with smartphones．Nearly 90percent of college undergraduates in a 2014study said they felt phantom vibrations．The number was just as high for a survey of hospital workers，who reported feeling phantom vibrations on either a weekly or monthly basis．"Something in your brain is being triggered（触发）that's different than what was triggered just a few short years ago，"says Dr Larry Rosen，a research psychologist who studies how technology affects our minds．"If you'd asked me 10years ago，or maybe even five years ago，if I felt an itch beneath where my pocket of my jeans was，and asked me what I would do，I'd reach down and scratch it because it was probably a little itch caused by the neurons firing（神经元刺激），"he says．Now，of course，the itch triggers him to reach for his phone．Rosen says it's an example of how our devices are changing how our brains process information．"We're seeing a lot of what looks like obsessive behavior．People who are constantly picking up their phone look like they have an obsession．They don't look much different from someone who's constantly washing their hands．I'm not saying that it is an obsession，but I'm saying that it could turn into one，very easily，"Rosen says．While 9out of 10participants in the study of college students said the vibration feeling bothered them only a little or not at all，Rosen still recommends backing away from our phones every once in a while to keep our anxiety levels down．"One of the things I'm really adamant about in spite of being very pro-technology，is just away from the technology for short periods，"Rosen says，"And by short periods，I mean；maybe just 30minutes or an hour．"23.According to the article，phantom vibrations ______ ．A. are mainly caused by neurons firingB. affect people mostly working on farmsC. help our brains better process informationD. have started troubling people in recent years24.The underlined word"adamant"in the last paragraph probably means ______ ．A. curiousB. determinedC. satisfiedD. cautious25.It can be concluded from Larry Rosen's research that ______ ．A. phantom vibrations could probably result in obsessive behaviorB. the use of smartphones has completely changed the way our minds workC. most people feel uncomfortable when they experience phantom vibrationsD. hospital workers are more likely to suffer from phantom vibrations than students26.According to Larry Rosen，the most effective measure against phantom vibrations is to______ ．A. move to a quieter neighborhoodB. stop using smartphones in poor conditionC. take a break from using smartphones occasionallyD. keep a close watch on your anxiety levels．【答案】【小题1】D 【小题2】B 【小题3】A 【小题4】C【解析】63．D．细节理解题，Today，they're so common that researchers have devoted studies to them．"（目前，它们（错觉手机震动）非常普遍，所以研究者们已经开始对其进行研究了．），可推知：近年来，错觉手机震动已经开始困扰着人们了．故正确答案为A．64．B．词义猜测题，根据该段语意One of the things I'm really adamant about in spite of being very pro-technology，is just away from the technology for short periods，可知，尽管Rosen是支持科技的，但确实对一件事报以坚决的态度--要离开手机一会儿，30分钟或者一个小时．即通过表示让步的状语in spite of being very pro-technology，可以推知"远离手机一会儿"是Rosen报以坚决态度的一件事，故正确答案为B．65．A．细节理解题，根据Rosen所说的话，"I'm not saying that it is an obsession，but I'm saying that it could turn into one，very easily"，可知错觉手机震动很可能会导致强迫症的出现．故正确答案为A．66．C．细节理解题，根据倒数第二段Rosen still recommends backing away from our phones every once in a while to keep our anx iety levels down．可知我们应该每隔一段时间远离我们的智能手机一会，这样可以避免产生幻觉，故正确答案为C．本文属于说明文阅读，作者通过这篇文章向我们介绍了一个现象你是否老是觉得手机震动了，即使它根本都不在你旁边？考查学生的细节理解和推理判断能力．做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确选择．在做推理判断题时不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断．D"I'm going home tomorrow，"Michael announced．It was the first time he had talked with Bert Hensley since their argument that morning．He wanted his father to say that he couldn't go，that he wouldn't let him run away．To say that running was no way for a man to live．But he replied only，"I figured that's what you'd want．"Michael began to pack his suitcase．It took only a few more minutes to finish his packing．When Michael finally spoke，his voice was too loud in the small space．"Why'd you invite me？"He asked，"Why'd you call after so many years？"His father answered without looking at Michael．"I thought it was time，"he said．"Time for what？"Michael persisted．"I guess we've let one another down pretty badly in the last couple of days，haven't we？"his father said．"Cil warned me，"he continued，"She said I ought to think about it more before I called about what I was trying to do，going back into your life that way．She said it wasn't fair，I letting some other man raise my son through all those years and then trying to take him back，just when he was getting to be a man．"A man？Michael almost laughed．"I don't know if you'll understand any of this．You're pretty young．"His father went silent，as though there was nothing more to say．Michael leaned across the table．"Try me，"he spoke quietly，but it was almost a command．His father flashed him a surprised look．"Well，"he said at last，"my life was beginning to feel…sort of temporary，I guess you could say．When you finish a run on the river，it's done．You know？So I guess I found myself thinking about you．A lot．Not just now and then the way I used to．"Not just now and then!Michael felt rather disappointed．So during all the years he had carried this man in his heart，constantly，day and night──all the"conversations"they'd had──Bert Hensley hadn't been thinking of him equally．Only now and then!And now you know，Michael thought．And it doesn't help，does it？He stood，but then he realized there was no place to go．"Michael，"his father said finally，"You don't have to go，you know，"his father said as Michael settled his suitcase into the back seat of Cil's car．Michael looked at his father helplessly．They both knew that he did．What good did it do to start pretending now？Not that thing would be any better back in Minnesota．Just that it was impossible to stay on here．"I guess they need me at home，"Michael said．"There are always lots to do in the summer．""Don't let the old man work too hard，Mike．"His father added，trying on a chuckle（轻声地笑）that slipped immediately away．The old man，the man his father had given him over to and then tried to take him back again．Even now，Michael thought，you could ask me to stay．That might make a difference，if you asked like you really mean it．But his father didn't ask；Michael had known he wouldn't．They shook hands before Michael climbed into the car．Like two men．Like two frightened men．27.After all of what had happened Michael still hoped his father could ______ ．A. apologize for what he had doneB. support his decisionC. go home with himD. ask him to stay28.Why did Michael feel disappointed with his father？______A. His father abandoned him after he was born．B. His father went back into his life all of a sudden．C. His father never thought of him as the way he did．D. His father said he was too young to understand all of this．29.The characteristic of the father can be described as ______ ．A. responsibleB. insincereC. caringD. stubborn30.Which of the following statements is TRUE？______A. When the father said"You don't have to go"，he meant it．B. The father never regretted having tried to take his son back．C. Michael probably wouldn't go back to his father again．D. The old man was hard on Michael．【答案】【小题1】D 【小题2】C 【小题3】B 【小题4】C【解析】67．D 细节理解题．根据文章内容．He wanted his father to say that he couldn't go，that he wouldn't let him run away．To say that running was no way for a man to live．在与父亲争吵之后，他希望父亲说不希望他离开，不能让他离家，能够留下来．结合选项，故选D68．C 细节理解题．根据文章内容So I guess I found myself thinking about you．A lot．Not just now and then the way I used t o…Bert Hensley hadn't been thinking of him equally．Only now and then!由此可知，Michael 之所以对父亲失望是因为他父亲从来不认为他是这样做的．结合选项，故选C 69．B 推理判断题．根据倒数第二段The old man，the man his father had given him over to and then tried to take him back again．Even now，Michael thought，you could ask me to stay．That might make a difference，if you asked like you really mean it可知他的父亲是不真诚的，并不真心；故选B．70．C、推理判断题．根据最后一段But his father didn't ask； Michael had known he wouldn't．They shook hands before Micha el climbed into the car．Like two men．Like two frightened men可知父亲的不真诚让米迦勒伤心，他以后可能都不会回到父亲身边了；故选C．本文属于记叙文阅读，作者通过这篇文章主要向我们描述了在与父亲争吵之后，他希望父亲说不希望他离开，然而父亲不真诚的态度彻底伤了他的心．本文是人物故事类阅读理解．做这类题材阅读理解时要求考生对文章通读一遍，做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项选出正确答案．推理判断题也是要在抓住关键句子的基础上合理的分析才能得出正确答案，切忌胡乱猜测，一定要做到有理有据三、完形填空（本大题共30小题，共2.0分）The New York Times published an article recently that shows great regret for the"death of conversation"．It suggests that while technology such as cell phones，e-mails，and Internet posting makes us feel more (31) than ever，they're also driving us (32) from people around us．Users get final connectivity (33) the price of (34) face-to-face conversation．Sherry Turkle，author of the article in The New York Times says people are (35) to a different way of being"alone together"．Actually，(36) text messages or writing micro-blogs allows us to (37) thoughts．(38) bits and pieces of online cannot (39)a"real conversation．"Lan Guo，19，a freshman English major from Changsha University，said that she would like to hear people's tone of voice and see their faces in a （n）(40)．"The give and take of ideas in a conversation sharpens our minds．"she said．She also mentions that (41) ourselves in mobile technology reduces our chance of starting conversations with strangers and (42) people．Turkle mentioned the popular (43) of"I share，therefore I am．"among this generation．Liu Xuan，a young writer from Taiwan and psychology graduate from Harvard University，thinks it's a mindset adopted by most young people．They are so busy creating or polishing their online persona （网络人格）that they forget how to live a （n）(44) life．For example，they may (45) more about blogging about attending a party rather than enjoying being (46)．(47)，experts remind us that it's unfair to blame mobile technology．Chen Chen，a sociology expert at China Youth & Children Research Center，points out that it is still owners of gadgets，such as cell phones and tablets，who're avoiding personal (48)．We take advantage of these devices to (49) ourselves from others．Texting messages or calling may be a （n）(50) to avoid contact with others，such as having eye contact．"Only by strengthening conversation can we understand each other．Simply throwing away the mobile gadgets is not a solution．"she said．31.

2022-2023学年江苏省泰州中学高二(下)期中英语试卷(附答案详解)
2022-2023学年江苏省泰州中学高二（下）期中英语试卷AIt was National Adoption Day.The pet store was working with the Lexington Humane Society to find good homes for abandoned dogs and cats.After endless pleas （恳求）from my sons，Mark and Luke，I decided to stop in.I didn't know it at the time but adopting a homeless dog would really make me feel better.I was struggling with depression.We'd moved from Ohio to Kentucky.Ohio had been my home for forty years，and I missed my parents，friends and the familiarity of home.Inside the pet store，there were rows of cages filled with furry animals.I spotted ours immediately：a two-year-old female Jack Russell named Princess.I looked into her cage.She pushed her nose toward the cage，sniffed and then lowered her head.Trembling in her cage，she seemed unsure of her surroundings.I wondered if Princess felt that way when she'd been brought here，surrounded by people she didn't know.Is that why she was shaking so hard It made me want her."Let's adopt her，" I said.My sons couldn't contain their excitement，"We want her!" My husband also agreed.After I filled out the paperwork，we took Princess home.She barely ate and didn't bark the first few days，but gradually she relaxed.One afternoon，I was about to doze off （打盹）when I felt Princess jump on the bed.She was like a friend next to me.Actually，after adopting Princess，I felt better.While I still missed my parents and friends，I started making friends and visiting places in Kentucky.When my son Luke turned seven，we had a birthday party.While I was making the cupcakes，Princess settled on the floor next to me.She was taking in everything：the sounds of children laughing，the smell of food and two of my new friends sitting at the kitchen table.She looked around and then up at me and wagged her tail.I thought it was her way of saying，"I'm finally home" And you know what？She was right.We were both home.1. Why did the author feel depressed______A. She was homesick then.B. She lost her previous pet.C. She disliked her new life.D. She felt sorry for the animals.2. What made the author decide to adopt Princess？______A. Its attractive physical appearance.B. Its elegant responses to her family.C. Its seemingly emotional suffering.D. Its obviously favorable personality.3. How did the arrival of Princess impact the author's life？______A. It changed her routine.B. It changed her lifestyle.C. It improved her social life.D. It improved her family life.4. What might be the best title for the text？______A. Settling inB. Holding onC. Changing for goodD. Caring for animalsBWhenever Alyssa Bohart heard a voice from her computer repeatedly- status alert，status alert—the search was on.The warning came from a radar device installed in Churchill，Manitoba—a modified （改进的）military system programmed with artificial intelligence （AI）and trained to detect polar bears.Over the past four years，the nonprofit Polar Bears International （PBI）has led radar，or "bear-dar"，tests to hopefully help northern communities stay safe.Polar bears are powerful predators，and for people in the Arctic，an essential part of coexisting with bears is maintaining a respectful distance.But with climate changes reducing sea ice，polar bears conflicts are spending more time on land.The chances of polar bears and humans conflicts are increasing，which can have terrible consequences for both parties. The project came into being when PBI was looking for new ways to prevent human-polar bear conflicts.A chance meeting with SpotterRF，a company that makes military radar devices，gave them an idea：maybe they could use the radar system to detect polar bears heading toward towns and send out an early warning. In their initial tests，the researchers discovered that "the technology works great"，says Geoff York，FBI's senior director of conservation. "If anything，it detects too much." The radar turned out to send thousands of motion alerts.So in 2020，the team turned to AI to try to narrow down the hits. "By incorporating this AI，we are truly teaching this radar to learn what a polar bear is，" says Alysa McCall，a staff scientist with PBI. This past fall，the team positively identified 28 polar bears and had 89 alerts that didn't turn out to be bears.McCall says their goals is to have more positive identifications than negative.In rare events，the team noticed polar bears，either on the camera or in person，that the bear-dar didn't identify.In those cases，the two most confusing variables for the bear-dar were variations in the bears' sizes，and the direction the bears were walking in relation to the radar. "We are not quite there yet.But I think the results have proved we have a good direction of where to go with the AI，" says MeCall.5. What is PBI trying to do______A. To provide new homes for polar bears.B. To help humans stay away from polar bears.C. To protect polar bears with advanced technology.D. To look into the cause of human-polar bear conflicts.6. What was the problem with PBI's initial radar system？______A. It was often damaged by polar bears.B. It cost too much money to operate well.C. It sent out unnecessary warning signals.D. It needed much time to find the target.7. How did McCall feel about the test results？______A. Hopeless.B. disappointed.C. Concerned.D. satisfied.8. What can be the best title of the text______A. AI does a great job in polar bear conservationB. Climate change intensifies human-bear conflictsC. Bear-dar warns humans of approaching polar bearsD. Polar bears pose a big threat to northern communitiesCA few years ago，Ruo，a retired esports player of the video game League of Legends，shouted out "Uzi，YYDS"，when watching Uzi，another Chinese professional player，on a live broadcast.YYDS，the pinyin abbreviation （缩写）of the four-Chinese-character expression，literally meaning "eternal god"，illustrates one's feeling for something or someone godlike and exceptional.The abbreviated slang （俚语）reached its peak of popularity at the Tokyo Summer Olympics.Whenever a Chinese player won gold at the Games，the video was filled with YYDS bullet comments.However the internet slang like "YYDS" has raised concerns among those in education.Cheng Xudong，an elementary school teacher，says that the evolution of the internet slang is not all fun and carefree.From his daily observations，the boundary between the internet slang and formal language is disappearing，as he has seen that his pupils' compositions are flooded with abbreviated slangs."As a Chinese language teacher，I don't feel comfortable when I read these abbreviations in their compositions，" he says. "The misuse of homophones （同音异义词）is also causing a big headache，Ya is seen many times intentionally replaced by some pupils using one of the homophones that means'duck'，" he adds. "The sentence 'I am so happy' literally turns to 'I am happy duck' by using the homophone."However，many experts and scholars in linguistics believe that internet language is a natural product of the dynamic development of language，and it is not necessary to prohibit it.The post 80s generation despised the "Martian text （火星文）" used by those of post-90s back then，which replaced Chinese characters with substandard ones of foreign scripts.People who do not know how to use it often need to use an online translator to understand it.It was regarded as brain-disabled characters 10 years ago.But later，interestingly，the Martian text disappeared naturally and no one is using it nowadays.The evolution of language reflects the development of the times as well as the current social and cultural life psychology.In this sense，it is not that this generation of young people do not speak "well"，but in fact，each generation has a generational style of language，says novelist Ma Boyong，when addressing the phenomenon at an interview.9. What does the author want to show by mentioning YYDS？______A. The extensive use of Chinese internet slang.B. The negative influence of Chinese internet slang，C. The use of Chinese internet slang in video games.D. The misunderstanding about Chinese internet slang.10. What is a matter of concern according to Cheng Xudong？______A. Some of his pupils use the internet slang at will.B. Some of his pupils cannot distinguish homophones.C. Some of his pupils cannot express themselves with right words.D. Some of his pupils make inappropriate changes to the internet slang.11. What does the underlined word "despised" in the last but one paragraph probably mean？______A. Thought highly of.B. Kept up with.C. Looked down upon.D. Looked forward to.12. What does Ma Boyong think of Chinese internet slang______A. Misleading.B. Meaningless.C. Beneficial.D. Acceptable.It's always exciting to begin a new job.But among the frenzy （激动）of meeting new colleagues，starting new projects，and building new skills，there can be a stressful pressure to succeed.A big part of your success is determined by how quickly you are able to digest lots of information，which can be very hard. （1）______*Manage yourselfWhen you notice information overload，don't ignore it and don't panic.Say to yourself，"I'm in a new job and there is plenty to learn here.It's okay to feel this way." （2）______ .Remember that emotions can help you better understand yourself and your values.*Sort your information（3）______ .It keeps what it needs more immediately in our short-term memory，and it mixes together information we may need to use in the future to store in our long-term memory.For the information that's not needed，our brain acts like a garbage management，recycling，and deleting it.*（4）______Organizations often have digital knowledge management systems to store and take important information.You can do the same to reduce brain burden.I recommend creating a Word or Googledocument in which you write down information that your brain doesn't need to remember or store.*Reduce task-switchingMulti-tasking isn't good for you physically or mentally and is worse for your productivity and cognition （认知）.（5）______ You can go for longer than that，but be sure to take a break.Focused activity is less taxing than multitasking，but you can't keep working endlessly.A.Respond positivelye technology to helpC.That problem is much easier to understand and solveD.Here are some methods to deal with the information overloadE.For greater results，focus on one task for around 25 minutesF.Our brain is like a clever piece of equipment that "takes in information"G.This self-talk helps normalize the situation and makes the emotions easier to handle13.
