For thousands of years, mankind has produced plants and animals to create more desired and useful plants and animals. For example, modern com has been produced to such a large size that it is no longer able to reproduce without man’s assistance. Modern dairy cows produce too much milk and if they are not often emptied of milk, they could leak, burst, become infected, and possibly die. Besides, most dogs raised by people can not survive in the wild even with special training.Since natural evolution is extremely slow and mankind’s selective production programs only take a few generations to produce a completely new species, natural evolution has already taken a back seat to mankind’s production programs. In addition, mankind has successfully killed off several species all together. For example, there are no more European wolves in existence and mammoths (猛犸象) probably died out because of mankind. Even certain diseases have been permanently got rid of from the planet, and dozens of other diseases will soon be too. Again, natural evolution did i»t cause most of the destruction during man’s rule of the world.Currently, scientists are creating new species with desired characteristics in the lab significantly faster than natural evolution creates new species. In a single generation, new species can be created and destroyed by mankind, while natural evolution could take thousands of years to do the same but only accidentally. Scientists are even able to replace defective (有缺陷的) or damaged genes with different genes to attempt to cure genetic defects. This is something that natural evolution could possibly never correct.Eventually scientists will even be able to improve the quality of people. For example, imagine not only correcting your eyesight with gene treatment, but also ensuring that all of your children do not receive your old genes of poor eyesight too. Scientists will one day be able to improve the memory and intelligence of your children, so that they will do better in school and achieve more in life. Doctors and scientists will be able to customize (订制) babies before they are born just like picking options at a car store.1.According to the first paragraph,______ .A. man-made evolution has improved all speciesB. man-made evolution has weakened some speciesC man-made evolution can make up for all natural lossesD. natural evolution won’t happen without man’s assistance2. What does the underlined part “taken a back seat to” in Paragraph2 mean?A. Become powerful assistance to.B. Become a huge barrier to.C Speeded up the process of. D. Played a less important role than.3 What does the third paragraph mainly talk about?A. Why natural evolution happens so slowly.B. The way scientists adopt to have genetic defects repaired.C. The advantages of man-made evolution over natural evolution.D. How scientists make use of man-made evolution to create new species.参考答案1—3、BDC【阅读理解】介绍说明类阅读下列四篇短文,从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

A German study suggests that people who were too optimistic abouttheir future actually faced greater risk of disability or death within10 years than those pessimists who expected their future to be worse.The paper, published this March in Psychology and Aging, examined health and welfare surveys from roughly 40,000 Germans between ages18 and 96.The surveys were conducted every year from 1993 to 2003.Survey respondents (受访者) were asked to estimate their present and future life satisfaction on a scale of 0 to 10, among other questions.The researchers found that young adults (age 18 to 39) routinely overestimated their future life satisfaction, while middleaged adults (age 40 to 64) more accurately predicted how they would feel in the future.Adults of 65 and older, however, were far more likely to underestimate their future life satisfaction.Not only did they feel more satisfied than they thought they would, the older pessimists seemed to suffer a lower ratio (比率) of disability and death for the study period.“We observed that being too optimistic in predicting a better future than actually observed was associated with a greater risk of disability and a greater risk of death within the following decade,” wrote Frieder R.Lang, a professor at the University ofErlangenNuremberg.Lang and his colleagues believed that people who were pessimistic about their future may be more careful about their actions than people who expected a rosy future.“Seeing a dark future may encourage positive evaluations of the actual self and may contribute to taking improved precautions(预防措施),”the authors wrote.Surprisingly, compared with those in poor health or who had low incomes, respondents who enjoyed good health or income were associated with expecting a greater decline.Also, the researchers said that higher income was related to a greater risk of disability.The authors of the study noted that there were limitations totheir conclusions.Illness, medical treatment and personal loss could also have driven health outcomes.However, the researchers said a pattern was clear.“We found that from early to late adulthood, individuals adapt their expectations of future life satisfaction from optimistic, to accurate, topessimistic,” the authors concluded.1.According to the study, who made the most accurate prediction of their future life satisfaction?A.Optimistic adults. B.Middleaged adults.C.Adults in poor health. D.Adults of lower income.解析细节理解题。

语鹅市安置阳光实验学校2016高考英语二轮阅读理解一百六十集选练(31)阅读理解Walk down the drinks section at the supermarket.Look in the drink cooler in your local convenience store.A new drink is taking up more and more space on the shelves,and that drink is water.Bottled water sales in the US rose to 1.7 billion gallons in 2010 for plastic bottles alone,compared to total sales of only 700 million gallons in1990.Whereas bottled water was once associated only with the rich and the privileged (特权阶层),it is now regularly drunk by people at all income levels despite the fact that the price of bottled water can be between 240 and 10,000 times higher per gallon than tap water.What accounts for this surprising increase in demand?Traditionally,people have drunk bottled water for health reasons.The practice of “taking the waters” originated with the Romans,who believed that a person developed a healthy mind by building a healthy body.Across Europe,drinking or bathing in mineral water has been associated with the power to cure various diseases.Health spas at Evian in France and Pellegrino in Italy began bottling water so that their consumers could continue their treatments at home.The consumers in the 21st century are also concerned about health.However,in America,where the habit of drinking bottled water is relatively new,the concern is often more related to the purity or sterilization (消毒) of the water than to its mineral contents.Americans are often worried about the effects of the chemical pollution and other contaminants on the water supply.Many Americans view bottled water as a safe alternative to tap water.Further reasons for drinking bottled water are its usefulness as an aid to digestion,as a complement to a good meal in a restaurant,and for taste.City tap water is often treated with chlorine (氯) to guard against harmful microorganisms.Chlorine,as well as metals from pipes and tanks used to distribute and store tap water,can leave behind an unpleasant taste.【语篇解读】本文从两个方面分析了瓶装水销量提高的原因。

Inside their one-store, metal-roofed house on Vancouver Island’s west coast,Janet Schwartz and her domesticated(驯养的) deer, Bimbo, are returning to their normal lives. The law-represented by men and women dressed in black uniforms and carrying guns — is no longer threatening to forcibly separate Schwartz and Bimbo,freeing the l0-year-old deer to the fates (命运) of the surrounding rainforest and its hungry wolves and black bears.“We love each other,”said Schwartz who turned 70 on Saturday. “she’ll come up to me and she’ll kiss me right on the lips,like a man kisses a woman’’For four days last week,Schwartz’ life turned as rocky as the rough logging road that connected her life to the outside world. Conservation officers had arrived with orders to loose Bimbo. Schwartz was told she wasn’t allowed to touch Bimbo any more. It seemed somebody had complained,said Environment Minister Terry Lake earlier in the week, noting it’s illegal to keep wild animals as pets.During those tense days,sleepless nights were made even more restless by nightmares,said Schwartz. There were news stories and Facebook pages which supported Schwartz and by Friday,the government had changed its mind. Schwartz could keep her pet with the help of a veterinarian and conservation officers.“It makes me feel good,”said Schwartz of the announcement.“She is my life.and I’ve had her since the day she’s been born.”The relationship began when a friend found the orphaned fawn (幼鹿) along a nearby logging road,more than a kilometer away from her current home,said Schwartz. The friend brought the fawn over because she knew Schwartz had raised a deer before.Schwartz named the fawn(小鹿) Bimbo,based on a Gene Autry song that was playing inside her home at the time,and began feeding the animal goat’s milk. Days turned into months and years, and now Bimbo is a part of the family.1. According to Paragraph 1 , Janet Schwartz’s life is returning to normal becauseA. no one disturbs her life againB. she can continue to keep the deerC. she has married againD. Bimbo has returned to the forest2. Why didn’t Schwartz want to loose the deer?A. It was the only companion in her houseB. She wanted to study the lifestyle of the deer.C. The deer had become part of her life .D. She had a veterinarian to help her .3. Conservation officers ordered Janet to loose Bimbo because A. the deer was not properly taken care of B. the deer brought harm to the neighborhoodC. it was against the law to keep the deer as a petD. the deer made too much noise 4. What made the government change its mind?A. Schwartz’s love for the deer.B. The threat to the deer in the wild.C. The change of the law.D.

Three years ago, the president of Harvard, Lawrence H. Summers, got into trouble for questioning women’s“intrinsic (内在的)aptitude (能力)〞for science and engineering. Recently, a study paid for by America’s National Science Foundation has found that girls perform as well as boys on standardized math tests. Although boys in high school performed better than girls in math 20 years ago, the researchers found that is no longer the case. The reason, they said, is simple: Girls used to take fewer advanced math courses than boys, but now they are taking just as many.“Now that enrollment in advanced math courses is equalized, we don’t see gender differences in test performance,〞 said Marcia C. Linn of the University of California, Berkeley, a co-author of the study. “But people are surprised by these findings, which suggests to me that the stereotypes are still there.〞The researchers looked at the average test scores of all students, the performance of the most gifted children and the ability to solve complex math problems. They found, in every category, that girls did as well as boys.Janet Hyde, a professor at the University of Wisconsin, Madison, who led the study, said the stereotypes about girls and math, had taken a toll (造成伤害).“The stereotype that boys do better at math is still held widely by teachers and parents,〞hyde said. “And teachers and parents guide girls, giving them advice about what courses to take, what careers to pursue. I still hear anecdotes about guidance counselors (顾问)steering (指导)girls away from engineering, telling them they won’tbe able to do the math.〞The study also analyzed the gender gap on the math section of the SAT. Since more girls than boys go to college, about 100, 000 more girls than boys take the test, including lower-achieving girls who bring down the girls’ average score.1. What might be the reason to carry out the study?A. To put HarvardUniversity to shame for its president’s prejudice against girls.B. To find out if there’s any gender gap in science.C. To help girls to earn equal social status as boys.D. To enroll more girls in advanced math courses in the university.2. Which statement about people’s opinions of girls is NOT true?A. People still find it hard to believe average girls perform in math as well as boys.B. Highly educated people are more likely to accept the fact that girls can do well in math.C. Many teachers and parents advise girls to avoid careers like engineering based on their talent.D. Some guidance counselors think careers related with math are not suitable for girls.3. We can learn from the text EXCEPT ______.A. girls used to perform worse than boys in math because they didn’t take as many advanced math coursesB. the stereotype about girls and math may lead to misguided choice of future careersC. the average lower scores of girls in SAT math test prove that boys do better in mathD. the public doesn’t accept outspoken prejudice against girls’ talent for math despite the stereotype4. The main purpose of writing the passage is to______.A. report the findings of a research into girls’ math abilityB. criticize those who hold the wrong belief that girls cannot do well in mathC. prove that the stereotype that girls do worse in math is wrongD. help girls regain confidence in learning math well【参考答案】1—4、BBCA【由山东省2014模拟改编】阅读如下短文,从每题所给的四个选项〔A、B、C和D〕中,选出最优选项。

Roger Sperry and Robert Ornstein of the California Institute of Technology, NobelPrize winners, discovered that the human brain has two sides, and each side hasdifferent work to do. The left side of the brain controls language and number andit analyses and reasons. 36 It controls our appreciation of music and our senseof rhythm. It is also the right side of our brain which daydreams.Leonardo da Vinci was the great painter and sculptor. He was also an architect, ascientist and an inventor! 37 When he invented machines he used both hisimaginative ability and his analytical ability.38 Albert Einstein enjoyed art, playing the violin and sailing. Indeed,Einstein said his scientific discoveries grew from his imagination rather than fromanalysis, reason and language. He said that written and spoken words were not importantin his thinking. The story goes that Einstein was daydreaming one summer’s day whilesitting on a hill. He imagined that he was riding on sunbeams to the far distanceof the universe. Then he found that he had returned to the sun. So he realized thatthe universe must curve(弯曲).39 He then used the left side of his brain to apply analysis, number and reason.And finally he used language to explain it.Traditional education in schools encourages us to use the left side of our brains. Language, number, analysis and reason are given more importance in our schools thanimagination and daydreaming. Why don’t we give more value to visual thinking? Whyjump on one foot if we have two perfectly good legs!40 We need to use our imagination to think of solutions to problems and toenjoy emotional and artistic experiences. And we need to be logical able to analyzeand organize in order to survive day by day.A. The right side controls our imagination and our understanding of space.B. Great scientists and great artists are similar.C. We all need both sides of our brain.D. He got this idea by using his imagination.E. We benefit by thinking creatively.F. He used both sides of his brain within each activity.G. He was considered crazy for his strange ideas.七选五36—40、AFBDC阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)[1]Everyone wants something in life, love, money, success...Yet too many people fail to achieve their goals, and nearly all of them are for the same reason.[2]It's true that terrible things do happen to people during their lives, though no fault of their own, which may make them feel upset. Generally speaking, however, getting what you really want out of life is just a matter of the following three simple steps.[3]Firstly, you have to decide what it is you want the most. But do not make a list of wishes; try to focus on one thing at a time. If you're not sure about where you want to go, you'd better think it over first and not hurry to perform.[4]Secondly, create an action plan. This will be your map for getting from "____________________" to "where you want to go". You know what you want, and what steps you are going to take to get it. For example, if you want a better job, start with a skills assessment and maybe some extra training. Then you'll need to sell yourself and your skills either to your present employer or to a new employer.[5]Other goals will require a bit more thought. Some will really get you lost without a clue of how to get there. Not to worry, though, books, biographies and such, can be of great help.[6]The third and final step is to execute. Do what you planned. Take the steps you outlined on your road map and keep going on all the time. If you run into somepeople who are against you, simply ignore them.[7]Never give up the goal. Keep pushing. Whatever you do, do not lose heart untilyou have what you desire in your hands. Never think that you can't turn your dream into a reality.76.What does the author want to tell readers in this article?(No more than 10 words)________________________________________________________________________________ ______plete the following statement with proper words.(No more than 4 words)No matter what you do, ______________________before you succeed.78.Fill in the blank in Paragraph 4 with proper words.

The traditional tent cities at festivals such as Glastonbury may never be the same again. In a victory of green business that is certain to appeal to environmentally-aware music-lovers, a design student is to receive financial support to produceeco-friendly tentsmade of cardboard that can be recycled after the bands and the crowds have gone home.Major festivals such as Glastonbury throw away some 10,000 abandoned tents at the end of events each year. For his final year project at the University of the West of England, James Dunlop came up with a material that can be recycled. And to cope with the British summer, the cardboard has been made waterproof.Taking inspiration from a Japanese architect, who has used cardboard to make big buildings including churches, Mr Dunlop used cardboard material for his tents, which he called Myhabs.The design won an award at the annual New Designers Exhibition after Mr Dunlop graduated from his product design degree and he decided to try to turn it into a business.To raise money for the idea, he toured the City’s private companies w hich fund new businesses and found a supporter in the finance group Mint. He introduced his idea to four of Mint’s directors and won their support. Mint has committed around£500,000 to MyHab and taken a share of 30 per cent in Mr Dunlop’s business. The fir st Myhabs should be tested at festivals this summer, before being marketed fully next year.Mr Dunlop said that the design, which accommodates two people, could have other uses, such as for disaster relief and housing for the London Olympics. For music events, the cardboard houses will be ordered online and put up at the sites by the Myhab team before the festival-goers arrive and removed by the company afterwards. They can be personalized and the company will offer reductions on the expense if people agree to sell exterior(外部的) advertising space.The biggest festivals attract tens of thousands of participants, with Glastonbury having some 150,000 each year. Altogether there are around 100 annual music festivals where people camp in the UK. The events are becoming increasingly environmentally conscious.1. “Eco-friendly tents” in paragraph 1 refer to tents.A. economically desirableB. favorable to the environmentC. for holding music performancesD. designed for disaster relief2. Mr Dunlop established his business .A. independently with an interest-free loan from MintB. with the approval of the City’s administrationC. in partnership with a finance groupD. with the help of a Japanese architect3. It is implied in the passage that .A. the weather in the UK is changeable in summerB. most performances at British festivals are given in the open airC. the cardboard tents produced by Mr Dunlop can be user-tailoredD. cardboard tents can be easily put up and removed by users4. The passage is mainly concerned with .A. an attempt at developing recyclable tentsB. some efforts at making full use of cardboardsC. an unusual success of a graduation projectD. the effects of using cardboard tents on music festivals 【参考答案】1-4 BCCA【由2014高考模拟题改编】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

Leaders of the World Health Organization say they are concerned about the air quality andhealth efiects on citizens during a recent outbreak of heavy pollution in Beijing.Still,they said theywere unsure of the exact amount the air pollution takes on any person’s body,casting doubts onlocal reports tying the area’s dirty air to particular cases of illness.Speaking at a briefing(情况介绍会)on Tuesday,the WHO’s Western Pacific regional director,Shin Young—Soo,cited(列举)reports about poor air quality causing lung cancer in recent weeks.“The WHO is skeptical of the information,”she said.“We’re cautious of whether the illness is relatedto air po11ution. We know it has an impact on health,but we don’t know how much.” The officials didn’t cite particular reports.The comments follow a number of articles since latelast year connecting some cases of diseases like lung cancer with pollution,.including one inNovember regarding an 8-year-old girl.The health impact of Beijing’s gray skies has been on the minds of many over the past week。

An Ofsted (英国教育标准办公室〕study reports that teachers are discouraging students who want to leave school and work as apprentices (学徒〕in beauty salons (美容中心〕or hair dressers.Inspectors questioned 105 young people for a report on apprenticeships published on Wednesday. They found several examples of young people who felt they had been laughed at by their teachers for wanting to progress to work-based learning, particularly in care or hairdressing, rather than stay on at school.Right or wrong, is it any surprise that this is happening? From 2014,the government will measure schools according to the rate of their pupils who go to university. Brian Lightman , general secretary of the Association of School and College Leaders, says the government has already put teachers under “very great pressure to focus on academic subjects〞.On the other hand, the Education Act 2011,which came into force in November, places schools under a duty to give fair career advice to pupils. This advice must include information on all post-16 education and training choices, including apprenticeships. T his doesn’t appear to be happening in several schools, according to Ofsted9S report. Many of the young people the inspectors talked to said the advice they had received on apprenticeships was “unsatisfactory〞.Schools were also blamed for lack of work experience courses, which are particularly important for teenagers considering an apprenticeship. They help students decide whether they enjoy a line of work and enable employers to see whether those on work experience have the potential to be hired as apprentices in future years.But there is a good reason why they can’t do this: they’d be unable to adapt to GCSE (英国普通中等教育证书〕exams if they did. Sometimes, it seems, schools just can’t win.1. Why do teachers oppose the students’ leaving school and working as apprentices?A. The government urges teachers to concentrate on academic subjects.B. The students are only wasting time working as apprentices.C. Employers are under great pressure of taking GCSE exams.D. Employers don’t give students chances to work as apprentices2. Pressure for schools to provide pupils with career advice comes from ______.A. Association of School and College LeadersB. Education Act 2011C. GCSE examsD. OFSTED3.

Scientists fear rising energy bills may lead to an increase in obesity (肥胖) after discovering a link between poorly-heated homes and higher body -fat.Researchers from the University of Stirling’s Behavioural Science Centre set out to explore claims that warm indoor temperatures have contributed to rising obesity levels in winter.Instead, the team found that people who live in well-heated homes are more likely to have low body mass index (体重指数) levels while those who keep their heating turned down or off tend to be heavier.Dr Michael Daly, behavioral scientist and senior lecturer, said: "We set out to investigate the scientific claims that cooler indoor temperatures help us maintain a healthy weight by pushing our bodies to use up more energy. In fact, the research suggests people may eat less and burn more energy when in a warmer indoor environment.The 13-year study, published in the journal Obesity, involved more than 100,000 adults across England.Researchers found reduced weight levels among people living in homes heated to above 23°C(73F), which involved about 15,000 of the households studied.Dr Daly said: "As national gas bills continue to rise faster than the rate of inflation, this research suggests the obesity could worsen where heating is turned down below comfortable levels or off for long periods to cut costs."This is not just about people who live in well-heated homes being in the financial position to afford more expensive low-calorie foods, exercise classes and sporting activities, and therefore finding it easier to maintain a low BMI level.The study took age, sex, social class and other factors into account."The comfortable temperature of 20°C -23°C is where we feel comfortable in our clothes and are neither hot nor cold.At temperatures above this, we use more energy and we eat less because our appetite is affected."1. The findings of the research can be described as ___.A.horrible B.surprising C.funny D.encouraging 2.According to the passage, with rising gas bills, people may turn down or off their heating to______.A.stay in shape B.maintain a low BMI level C.save money D.avoid eating more3.

The museum first opened to the public on 15 January 1759 in Montagu House in Bloomsbury, on the site of the current museum building. Its expansion over the following two and a half centuries was largely a result of an expanding British colonial footprint and has resulted in the creation of several branch institutions. Until 1997, when the British Library (previously centered on the Round Reading Room)moved to a new site, the British Museum housed both a national museum of antiquities and a national library in the same building. The museum is a non-departmental public body sponsored(赞助)by the Department for Culture, Media and Sport. Since 2002 the director of the museum has been Neil MacGregor. Admission and opening hours:The museum is open every day from 10am to 6pm (Fridays 10am to 5:30pm)and it charges no admission fee, except for loan exhibitions.How to get there:By train: 7:00-18:30 every day.

When I was 12, I got a part-time job on a dairy farm, milking cows. We milked 65 cows twice a day. One day, I complained to my father about having to go milk those cows, saying it was tiring. He said, you know, boy, to work is a blessing. I looked at the men who'd worked harder.I had a feeling I had been told something really important, but it took many years before it sunk in.Back then, going to college was a rare privilege. My father told me if I'd picked something to study that I liked doing, I'd always look forward to my work. But he also added, even having a job you hate is better than not having a job at all. I wanted to be a farmer, but I joined a military program to help pay for college. And what started out as an obligation to the Army became a way of life that I stayed committed to for 37 years.In the late 1980s, during a visit to Bangladesh, I saw a woman with her baby on her back, breaking bricks with a hammer. I asked a local officer why they weren't using a machine to make the work easier. He told me a machine would put that lady out of work. And as bad as that woman's job was, it was enough to keep a small family alive. It reminded me of my father's words: to work is a blessing.After seeing a lot of people like that woman in Bangladesh, I've come to believe that people without jobs are not free. They're victims of crime, poor health, and depression. People who have jobs can have a home, send their kids to school, develop a sense of pride, contribute to the good of the community and even help others. When we can work, we are free. We are blessed.1. Which can be the best title of the text?A. My chosen way of lifeB. To work is a blessingC. Why should I workD. Inspiration from a woman2. The writer joined a military program because _______.A. his parents forced him to do soB. he intended to find a lifetime jobC. he couldn't afford his college educationD. he could travel abroad with the army3. What does the writer intend to say through the last paragraph?A. People without jobs could achieve more.B. Freedom is not always free for people.C. Rich people should help those in need.D. We should feel fortunate to have a job.参考答案1—3、BCD【阅读理解】介绍说明类阅读下列四篇短文,从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

Prejudice is a preconceived opinion that is not based on fact or reason。
Examples of prejudice in schools include believing that some students are particular type of people simply because of the way they dress or act,or believing that a certain group is good at sports simply because many peop1e in that group are goad at sports. Another example is believing that a boy is good at science because many boys are good at science。
I would like to cite more examples from the English literature。
The best example of “prejudice” can be found in Jane Austen's novels。
Her novels in the history of English literature are popularly known as "novels of manners”。
Thus you can clearly understand that where manners and social behavior are concerned,”prejudice” is inevitable !Austen’ s famous novel Pride and Prejudice is the best example in this respect。

It's interesting to see how people make use of the time they spend on public transport in Indian cities like Delhi and Mumbai.In crowded buses and trains people manage to take a short nap and some even reach the snoring stage.Or they spread out a newspaper over multiple knees and arms to read about the latest sport results or political crisis.Then there are the experienced travellers who have been playing cards with the same group over the last decade or so.They even have their specific seats so well-worn that you can make out the shape of their backsides.There is no doubt about it.Travelling by public transport is being in the thick of the seasons of life-a sweaty life in summer where people,blissfully unaware of the rivers of sweat running down their brows and inside their clothes.At the first smell of a perfumed man or woman boarding the stuffy bus or train,most people feel they are reborn.During the rains you can't avoid getting wet or muddied.The windows,almost always,are not a perfect fit and if you're not drenched by a sudden,heavy rain shower then you are bound to catch a jet spray of muddy water caused by a fellow motorist driving fast through a puddle.The rains are a perfect time for people to switch their old umbrellas for new ones.Since there are so many that look alike,it's impossible to tell whose is whose.Winter is the time when it feels good-or at least warm—to be part of a crowd.It is amazing how much the collective breaths of a hundred or so people can raise the freezing temperature inside.Looking at the masses dressed in their bright red pullovers or green coats,it's fun to imagine what faces lie beneath their dark woolen hats.The cold winter passes,making way for spring.It is impossible not to see every little flower by the wayside blooming proudly.And the warm sun manages to transmit some of their pleasantness to the inside of a bus or train.Now,wouldn't it be perfect if we had public transport worth thename in all our cities?【语篇解读】普通的画面,平常的生活,变化的季节,永恒的旋律,印度的公共交通工具上每天都演绎着平凡人平淡的故事。

More than half of rich Americans have not shown their full wealth to their children,a new survey showed last Tuesday.The survey,published by the Bank of America, studied the rich with $3 million or more in assets.It found that “surprisingly few of those surveyed have well-developed plans to preserve and pass on their assets to their children”.The majority of the 457 people surveyed are selfmade,first-generation rich.Fifty-two percent of parents have chosen not to tell their children just how wealthy they are,and 15 percent have given away nothing about the family wealth.One in three parents said they had never thought to do it.They are worried that their children would become lazy,spend money freely,make bad decisions and even become a target for gold diggers.Only 34 percent strongly agreed that their children would be ableto handle any inheritance(遗产)they plan to leave them.“There is an expectation about the wealthy pare nts that they havea responsibility to pass down their fortune to the nextgeneration,”said Sallie Krawcheck,president of the Global Wealth and Investment Management of the Bank of America.“Our research,however,uncovered changing views of what one generation owes the next.”The trend is led by the world's richest man Bill Gates,who promised in 2008 that he would leave his $58 billion fortune to the charity started by him and his wife,the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation(基金会),and not to his children.“We wa nt to give it back to society in the way that it will have the most positive impact,”he said.Of his plans for his children,Gates said:“I will give the kids some money but not a meaningful percentage...they will need to work but they will feel reasonably t aken care of.”【语篇解读】调查表明,大部分富人不愿向孩子炫富,甚至不打算将丰厚的资产传给后代。

Italians were reminded to slow down and relax on World Slow Day, an annual event celebrating life's simple pleasures."Let's take this day to stop and think about all the things we miss while we're rushing through our lives," said Bruno Contigiani, the President of the Art of Living Slowly Association. Contigiani, 62, a one-time high-powered manager, is now an ambassador for the slow life movement around the world. He started the first World Slow Day in 2007 to encourage the values of living and working at a more natural pace, and to make people rethink their daily lifestyle.Contigiani's association suggests "14 commandments (诫条) " for living better, such as waking up five minutes earlier to enjoy breakfast without rushing. Others include walking whenever possible, and reading in the evenings instead of watching television.This year, Contigiani left Italy where the event has spread around the country for Shanghai, one of the fastest moving cities in the world. The slow-living supporter said he wandered around the busiest streets of the commercial center for an entire afternoon, inviting people to "slow down". "Among the ‘14 commandments’, the one about waking up five minutes earlier was the most popular by far, " Contigiani said.Back in Italy, the now well-known event hosts a lot of activities, such as reminding people to stop and smell the roses. In central Milan you would probably be fined if you walk too fast. In parks and public spaces, free yoga and Tai Chi (太极拳) lessons are important parts of the events.Italian farmers' union noted that Italians spent less and less time preparing meals, a habit connected to rising levels of obesity(肥胖). Therefore, the group said World Slow Day was a good opportunity to remind Italians to take extra time at meals in particular.World Slow Day is by now an international event. A total of 90 “Slow Cities" in 11 countries inspired by the “live well" philosophy are supporting the day.1. What's the best title of the text?A. Slow Life SupportersB. Lifestyle of ItalyC.

What can help you make a fortune in the future? Graduating from a top university might not be enough. A new study from the University of Essex in Britain has shown that the more friends you have in school, the more money you'll earn later.The idea that popularity could have a serious impact on one's earning potential shouldn't come as too much of a surprise. The researchers noted that if you want to get ahead in life, social skills and networking are easily as powerful as talent and hard work.“If a person has lots of friends, it means that he or she has the ability to get along with others in all kinds of different situations," said Xu Yanchun, 17, from Nantou High School in Shenzhen, who totally agreed with the recent finding. "Also, friends always help each other. They not only create wider social circles for you but lift your mood when you occasionally feel depressed," said Xu. She believed that all this helps you "earn a higher salary”.Maybe that's why some people think the younger generations are in the age of Friendalholism (交友狂症). A woman even complained that the networking website Face book's 5,000-friend limit was too low for her large reserve of social contacts.But what does a friend mean? Should friends be regarded as a form of currency?“Call me uncoil, but I think of a friend as an actual person with whom I have an actual history and whom I enjoy actually seeing. It seems, however, that this is no longer the definition (定义) of ‘friend',” said Meghan Daum, who works with The Los Angeles Times in the US.( ) 1.The new study from the University of Essex in Britain shows that _________.A. if you have more friends you will not live happily.B. the more friends you have in school, the more money you'll earn in your late life.C. the less friends you have, the poor lives you will live.D. friends can make more money for you.( ) 2. According to Xu Yanchun, when you have lots of friends, it means_____A. You have the ability to earn more money.B. You will not feel lonely.C .You are quite content with your life.D. You have the ability to get along with others in various situations. ( ) 3. What’s the main idea of the passage ?A. The passage mainly tells us something about the friendship.B. Friends plays an more important part in our daily life than anythingelse.C. Friends are currency.D. Friends give you success.( ) 4. We can learn from the passage that _________.A. If you have more friends, you can make a fortune in the future.B. Graduating from college means that you can make a fortune in the future.C. Friends means a form of currency.D. Friends can make you wider social circle and make you feel better when you feel depressed.【文章大意】:文章主要向人们讲述了朋友在人们生活中的重要作用。

“The first and best of victories is for a man to conquer himself; to be conquered by himself is, of all things, the most shameful,” says Plato. Self-control is at the root of all the advantages. Let a man give in to his impulses(冲动) and feelings, and from that moment he gives up his moral(道德) freedom.A single angry word has lost many friends. When Socrates found in himself any temper or anger, he would check it by speaking low in order to control himself. If you are conscious of being angry, keep your mouth shut so that you can hold back rising anger. Many a person has dropped dead in great anger. Fits of anger bring fits of disease. “Whoever the gods would destroy they first make them mad.”“Keep cool,” says Webster, “anger is not argument.” “Be calm in arguing,” says George Herbert, “for fierceness(狂怒) makes error a fault.”To be angry with a weak man is to prove that you are not strong yourself. “Anger,” says Pythagoras, “brings with folly and ends with regret.” You must measure the strength of a man by the power of the feelings he conquers, not by the power of those which conquer him. Self-control is man’s last and greatest victory.If a man lacks self-control he seems to lack everything. Without it he can have no patience, no power to govern himself; he can have noself-confidence, for he will always be controlled by his strongest feeling. If he lacks self-control, the very backbone and nerve of character are lacking also. (from )1. What’s the main idea of the passage?A. The importance of self- control.B. How to conquer oneself?C. The relation between a man’s moral freedom and his feelings.D. A man should keep cool.2. What’s the meaning of “whoever the gods would destroy they first make them mad”?A. If you are mad, the gods will kill you.B. If you lose your temper first, gods will kill you first.C. If you can’t control yourself, you will be crazy.D. If the gods want to kill you, they will make you mad first.3. Which of the following is NOT true, according to passage?A. The first and best of victories is for a man to conquer himself.B. You will make a small mistake serious if you don’t keep cool.C. You must measure a man’s strength by the power of the feelings which conquer him.D. Anger brings with folly and ends with regret.4. Which of the following can’t help you avoid anger, according to the passage?A. Be calm in arguing.B. Check your temper or anger by speaking low.C. Keep your mouth shut.D. Try to make the other angry first.1. A 主旨大意题。

体裁:记叙文话题:公共服务时间:7分钟The world of taxi drivers is dominated by men.But there is one small taxi company in Delhi,where all the drivers and passengers are female.Women's safety is a hot topic in India at the moment,so it's proving a very popular service.“When I'm on the road driving our taxi I feel very proud,because this is the first taxi service only for women,”says 31yearold Shanti Sharma,who is one of eight female drivers with a taxi service called Cabs for Women by Women.The last couple of months,since the rape and murder in the city of a college student travelling on a bus,have been particularly busy for her and her colleagues.“After this case,our workload has increased so much,” says Sharma.“Women who used other cab services are also turning to us now.”Most women in Delhi say they routinely face harassment(骚扰),and worse,especially on public transport.Sharma,a single parent with three daughters,has been working as a taxi driver since 2011,when the service was first set up,and it has changed her life.This is the first time that she has earned enough—about 250 a month—to support her family.Of course,she and the other female taxi drivers are completely outnumbered by male cabbies.“When I park somewhere there are always men there and inevitably five or six of them get together and hang out,” she says.“I'm usually the only woman in the parking lot,so I just stay inside the car.”It's not much better when she is out on the road.Sharma says the male drivers give her a hard time.“As soon as they see a woman at the wheel they start honking(按喇叭) for no reason.They'll try to overtake you.I'm always worrying about how to avoid getting hit by someone.”The company behind Cabs for Women by Women,Sakha Consulting Wings,had a number of goals when it set up the service.It wanted to give women from poor backgrounds an opportunity to earn money.By putting women in charge of technologies,it also wanted to change people's attitudes,and open up boundaries for women.【语篇导读】德里一家出租车公司专门推出了女性司机只为女性乘客提供服务的Cabs for Women by Women 出租车业务。

(2015·江西省八所重点中学高三联考) Bobbi Kristina Brown's family has been gathered around her since she was hospitalized on Saturday after being found unconscious in the bathtub of her suburban Atlanta townhome.Whitney Houston's only child is now at Emory University Hospital and is still fighting for her life, as a family statement said on Monday.Nothing has changed, despite reports that are popping up and painting a more serious picture.Fox News reported Wednesday that the situation is horrific. “It's now a matter of when the family wants to let go and accept that she's pretty much not going to make it,” a source told FOX411. “They've left it up to the family as to how long they want to keep her alive.”People Magazine is also reporting that a doctor told Brown's family on Wednesday that nothing more could be done. “Everyone is coming to t he hospital to say goodbye,” said a family member.And the Daily Mail says Brown has been taken off life support.But Bobby Brown issued a statement late Thursday denying these reports.“If we issued a statement every time the media published a false repor t regarding this matter, that's all we would be doing 24 hours a day. This is false, just as is the vast majority of the other reporting that is currently taking place,” he said, according to the Atlanta Journal Constitution.A source close to the family tells USA TODAY that it's wrong to say the family is gathering to say goodbye, because the family has been there since the beginning, so nothing is any different today for them.Also, Brown is “not brain dead,” as has been reported.And, as for other stories saying that the Houston family is feuding with Bobbi Kristina's dad, Bobby Brown? Those aren't true either. They “are NOT fighting,”says our source.文章大意:本文主要讲Kristina病危,几家报社的报道都失真,一家人仍在祈祷出现奇迹。
