葫芦岛市一高中2017—2018学年度下学期高三周考(六)英语试题第I卷(选择题)第一部分阅读(共两节,满分40分)第一节阅读理解(每小题2分, 共30分)ADoctors in hospital emergency rooms often see accidental poisonings. A frightened parent arrives with a child who swallowed a cleaning liquid. Or perhaps the harmful substance is a medicine. Or it might be a chemical product meant to kill insects. These are common causes of accidental poisoning.In cases like this, seek medical help as soon as possible. Save the container of whatever caused the poisoning. And look on the container for information about anything that stops the effects of the poison. Save anything expelled from the mouth of the victim. That way, doctors can examine it.Millions of people know a way to save a person who is choking on something trapped in the throat. The method is commonly known as the Heimlich Maneuver or abdominal thrusts(腹部按压), which you can do by getting directly behind a sitting or standing person. Put your arms around the victim’s waist. Close one hand to fo rm a ball. Place it over the upper part of the stomach, below the ribs. Place the other hand on top. Then push forcefully inward and upward. Repeat the abdominal thrusts until the object is expelled from the mouth. For someone who is pregnant or very fat, place your hands a little higher than with normal abdominal thrusts.Red Cross experts say taking these steps can save many lives. But they also warn that abdominal thrusts are not for people who have almost drowned. They say use of the method could delay other ways to re-start breathing in the victim. Abdominal thrusts should be used only in cases where a near-drowning victim is choking on an object.To learn more about first aid, ask a hospital or organization like a Red Cross or Red Crescent Society for information. There may be training classes offered in your area.21.According to the first paragraph, which of the following is NOT the common cause ofaccidental poisonings?A .harmful medicine B. A cleaning liquidC. Poisonous insectsD. Dangerous pesticide(杀虫剂)22. The underlined word “expelled” in paragragh2 can be replaced by “”.A. coming outB. taking upC. going awayD. getting down23. Why abdominal thrusts are not for people who have almost drowned?A. Because people are unwilling to attempt rescue effortsB. Because it is hard to performC. Because it is no need to do soD. Because it could hold up other ways to re-start breathing in the victim24. What is the author’s purpose in writing this text?A. To promote medical researchB. To share some knowledge about first aidC. To show how to perform abdominal thrustsD. To help people deal with accidental poisoningBAt your next meeting, wait for a pause in conversation and try to measure how long it lasts. Among English speakers, chances are that it will be a second or two at most. But while this pattern may be universal, our awareness of silence differs dramatically across cultures.What one culture considers a confusing or awkward pause may be seen by others as a valuable moment of reflection and sign of respect for what the last speaker has said. Research in Dutch (荷兰语)and also in English found that when a silence in conversation stretches to four seconds, people start to feel uneasy. In contrast, a separate study of business meetings found that Japanese people are happy with silences of 8.2 seconds---nearly twice as long as in Americans’ meetings.In Japan, it is recognized that the best communication is when you don’t speak at all. It’s already a failure to understand each other by speaking because you’re repairing that failure by using words.In the US, it may originate from the history of colonial America as a crossroads of many different races. When you have a complex of d ifference, it’s hard to establish common understanding unless you talk and there is understandably a kind of anxiety unless people are verbally engaged to establish a common life. This applies also to some extent to London.In contract, when there’s more homogeneity, perhaps it’s easier for some kinds of silence to appear. For example, among your closest friends and family it’s easier to sit in silence than with people you’re less well acquainted with.25. Which of the following people might have the longest silence in conversation?A. The DutchB. AmericansC. The EnglishD. The Japanese26. What might the Japanese agree with in conversation?A. Speaking more gives the upper handB. Speak out what you have in your mindC. Great minds think alike without wordsD. The shorter talking silence, the better27. What does the underlined word “homogeneity” in the last paragraph mean?A. SimilarityB. ContradictionC. DiversityD. Misunderstanding28. What can we learn from the text?A. A four second silence in conversation is universalB. It’s hard for American to reach a common agreementC. English speakers are more talkative than Japanese speakersD. The closer we and our family are, the easier the silence appearsCIt is reported that in the near future robots and humans will probably work together to create jazz.A singing robot is being taught to create jazz with human being in a project.Antonio Chella from Italy is working with a Telenoid robot. To start with,the Telenoid will be trained to imitate the movements and simple sounds made by a human singer,and then connect。

Many choose to fly to work.Equipment varies but can include a small motorized frame(动力框架) attached to a parachute--like sail or non-motorized hang-gliders that ride wind, usually after a rider jumps from a height.One of the gliding commuters is Zeng Daxia, a 42-year-old civil servant and a retired professional parachute jumper. He is a senior member of a local glider club. “After work, I would go to an open space along the Xiangjiang River and fly home directly,” Zeng told reporters. “We love freedom. Our worries will blow away when we are flying.” Eight of the members frequently fly between home and work. Members sometimes fly together, sharing a very cool and efficient means of travel.“I’m serious in the office but I become a different person once I put on my glider gear,” Zeng said. The gliders’ story has made a headline on many websitesin China.While it may seem like a luxury sport, Zhong Bo, the club’s coach, said gliding equipment can be owned for about 30,000 yuan ($ 4,185), the paper said. “Ten liters of 92# gasoline is enough for a three-hour flight and a round trip between Zhuzhou and Cahngsha, nearly 132 kilometers,” Zhong added. 92# gasoline is priced at 7.67 yuan a liter in Hunan.Zhong also suggested that people should get certificates from the China Air Transport Association and General Administration of Sports before gliding.24.Why do some people go to work by parachute gliding?A.

He survived for two months without food by eating handfuls of snow. But how long can people go without food?Skyllberg had been inside the car since 19 December, 2011. Experts believe it’s possible for the human body to survive without food for up to two months. Last year, a 56-year-old woman from British Columbia survived nearly 50 days in the Nevadawilderness on sweets and water after being stranded in the mountains while her husband went in search of help.In fact there’re many causes that can influence a person’s ability to survive, such as the way the body’s metabolism(新陈代谢) slows down to keep energy. When the body stops getting food, it has to live on the stored sugar. When this runs out is then turned into the second energy supply. After the fat runs out, the body must take recycled protein from the system and finally from the muscles. But this is very expensive fuel for the body. It’s like being in a cold house and burning furniture instead of firewood. However, the muscle loss slows the body’s work, causing it to burn calories at a slower rate.Being trapped into a small space would have helped Skyllberg keep precious calories. The car was covered in snow, creating what some experts have described as an “igloo(因纽特人小屋) effect” on the car.A person’s mental state can play a key role in how long they survive, according to Stephen Joseph, a professor at the University of Nottingham. “In dangerous situations, survival depends on personalities. Some might lose hope, while others are more hopeful,” says Joseph. “Hope is probably a big key to this.”28. When was Peter Skyllberg saved out of the snow?A. In October 2011B. In January 2012C. In February 2012D. In March 201229. The underlined word “stranded” in Paragraph 2 means ___________.A. trappedB. attackedC. worriedD. frightened30. Which of the following shows the right order of human body getting energy when there is no food?A. stored sugars→ recycled protein→ fatB. recycled protein→ fat→ stored sugarsC. fat→ recycled protein→ stored sugarsD. stored sugars→ fat→ recycled protein31. What may partly lead to Peter Skyllberg’s survival of two months according to the passage?A. Enough food.B. Fast metabolismC. Low temperatureD. High spiritsDJust because a toy’s packaging says it’s educational doesn’t make it so. That’s the finding from a new study in JAMA Pediatrics that found some toys being marketed as language promoters got in the way of learning.Research shows that for kids to understand, speak and eventually read or write a language, they need to hear it---lots of it. And it’s never too early for parents and caregivers to get talking. That explains the booming industry in talking electronic toys that claim to help kids learn language.Professor Anna Sosa, of Northern Arizona University, led the study and says she gave families three different kinds of toys to play with: books, traditional toys like humble blocks(积木) and a shape sorter, and electronic toys. Sosa says she picked those toys because they are advertised in their packaging as language-promoters for babies between the ages of 10 and 16 months.“We had a talking on farm-animal names and things,”Sosa says of the electronic toys. “We had a baby cell phone. And we had a baby laptop. So you open the cover and start pushing buttons, and it tells you things. The parent-child couples were asked to play separately with each type of toy over the course of three days.”“When there’s something else that’s doing some talking, the parents seem to be sitting on the sidelines and letting the toy talk for them and respond for them,”Sosa says. “That’s bad because the best way a toy can promote language in infants and toddlers is by stimulating interaction between parents and child. There’s simply no evidence that a young child can learn language directly from a toy. It isn’t responsive enough. It isn’t social.”As for the other toys, traditional blocks and puzzles stimulated more conversation than the electronic toys, and books outscored(得分高于) them all. But don’t underestimate the humble block. While traditional toys fell short of books in interaction quantity, Sosa notes, they kept pace in terms of quality.32.What is the finding of the research led by Professor Anna Sosa?A. Toy industry is facing a new challenge in marketing.B. Kids should be taught to learn with toys as early as possible.C. Parents need to be cautious when choosing toys for their kids.D. People might be misled by the statements of some toy makers.33.According to the passage, why are talking electronic toys so popular?A. Because they represent the latest creations.B. Because they are used as an education tool.C. Because they arouse the interest of learning.D. Because they are easy for the kid to control.34.We can infer from the passage that it is necessary for the parents__________________.A. to get involved in the conversations with their kidsB. to spare more time to stay with their kids at homeC. to encourage their kids to attend social activitiesD. to share their experiences of reading with their kids35.What is the author’s attitude to electronic toys as language promoters?______________A. SupportiveB. DoubtfulC. CriticalD. Objective第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)How to Improve Your Social LifeIn this world, developing social skills is one of the most important parts of growing up.

Only the sound of the big freezer broke the quiet. He’d dreamt of the cave last night. The purring (轻微颤动声) of the freezer had been the sea .Tim pulled on a sweater and put some apples into his schoolbag. It was too early for breakfast. He’d eat after he’d been through the cave, sitting on the rocks and staring at the sea.He wished he had a proper pack. His schoolbag would have to do. What else? Sandwiches—but his mother might wake up if he started pulling out bread for sandwiches, she’d want to know why he had to leave so early. He settled for some biscuits, and left a note stuck to the table. Gone to Michael’s Back tonight . Tim .The sky was high and soft and light outside, though the sun still wa sn’t up. Even the highway up the hill was quiet as he made his way down the street. The wind from thesea was fresh and sweet.The sandhills still breathed heat from yesterday’s sun, though the top of the sand was cool. He ran down to the beach impatiently, but there was no one, just dry sand dancing in the early wind and seabirds marching up and down watching the waves.The light changed suddenly.

And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what ‘keeping up with the Joneses’ is about. It is the story of someone who tried tolook as rich as his neighbors.The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $ 125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighborhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand went horseback riding every day. When he saw that rich people had servants. Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbors.It was like a race, but one could never finish this race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to an apartment in New York City. Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich life--style of their neighbors. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories, He called it ‘Keeping up with the Joneses’ because ‘Jones’ is a very common name in the United States. 'Keeping up with the Joneses' came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you. Momand’s series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years.People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And there are ‘Jonses’ in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr. Jones always seems to be ahead.32.

Symptoms include stomachaches, tiredness, shaking, a racing heart and frequent trips to the toilet.__36__ Most commonly it is the result of separation anxiety, but it can also be caused by different kinds of stress. A child who has recently moved, suffered a loss, or gone through a divorce may develop school phobia, and phobias can also develop in response to an unrecognized learning disability, and poor self-image.__37__ He or she may become physically ill when ordered to school, or pretend to be sick to avoid going. When the child arrives at school, he or she may run away, or develop behavioral problems in class. When school is discussed, the child can become impatient, upset or angry.Many techniques can be used to manage school phobia. But research suggests that much more effective treatment is required for school phobia to prevent problems developing in later life. Children with this condition usually benefit from seeing a psychologist or doctor. __38__ As soon as a school phobia is identified, parents should take action too. Like other phobias, school phobia gets worse if it is left untreated, and it can prevent the child from succeeding in school. __39__ If bullying (child abuse) is a cause, for example, the bullying situation should be solved. A teacher can meet the child at the door and take him or her to class, and provide support so that the child feels a friendly adult is always available.Changes at home can include supportive language from parents, along with support like assistance with homework.

Soon the whole room was burning.The principal phoned for the fire department. The school is a long way from the town and by the time the fire department arrived, the whole school was in flames.

Only the sound of the big freezer broke the quiet. He’d dreamt of the cave last night. The purring (轻微颤动声) of the freezer had been the sea .Tim pulled on a sweater and put some apples into his schoolbag. It was too early for breakfast. He’d eat after he’d been through the cave, sitting on the rocks and staring at the sea.He wished he had a proper pack. His schoolbag would have to do. What else? Sandwiches—but his mother might wake up if he started pulling out bread for sandwiches, she’d want to know why he had to leave so early. He settled for some biscuits, and left a note stuck to the table. Gone to Michael’s Back tonight . Tim .The sky was high and soft and light outside, though the sun still was n’t up. Even the highway up the hill was quiet as he made his way down the street. The wind from thesea was fresh and sweet.The sandhills still breathed heat from yesterday’s sun, though the top of the sand was cool. He ran down to the beach impatiently, but there was no one, just dry sand dancing in the early wind and seabirds marching up and down watching the waves.The light changed suddenly. The first rays of sunlight stretched (延伸) across the sea . The sun was pushing its way over the edge of the world.Over the first rocks, Tim glanced back. The beach was still empty. The sun sailed higher in the sky.He could see the cave now, even darker in the morning light. The sand turned silver then dark gold as the water flowed away from it.

And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what ‘keeping up with the Joneses’ is about. It is the story of someone who tried tolook as rich as his neighbors.The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself. He began earning $ 125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got married and moved with his wife to a very wealthy neighborhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses, Momand went horseback riding every day. When he saw that rich people had servants. Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbors.It was like a race, but one could never finish this race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to an apartment in New York City. Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich life--style of their neighbors. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories, He called it ‘Keeping up with the Joneses’ because ‘Jones’ is a very common name in the United States. 'Keeping up with the Joneses' came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you. Momand’s series appeared in different newspapers across the country for over 28 years.People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And there are ‘Jonses’ in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr. Jones always seems to be ahead.32. Some people want to keep up with the Joneses because they ______.A. want to be happyB. want to be as rich as their neighborsC. don’t want others to know they are richD. want others to know or to think that they are rich33.

Symptoms include stomachaches, tiredness, shaking, a racing heart and frequent trips to the toilet.__36__ Most commonly it is the result of separation anxiety, but it can also be caused by different kinds of stress. A child who has recently moved, suffered a loss, or gone through a divorce may develop school phobia, and phobias can also develop in response to an unrecognized learning disability, and poor self-image.__37__ He or she may become physically ill when ordered to school, or pretend to be sick to avoid going. When the child arrives at school, he or she may run away, or develop behavioral problems in class. When school is discussed, the child can become impatient, upset or angry.Many techniques can be used to manage school phobia. But research suggests that much more effective treatment is required for school phobia to prevent problems developing in later life. Children with this condition usually benefit from seeing a psychologist or doctor. __38__ As soon as a school phobia is identified, parents should take action too. Like other phobias, school phobia gets worse if it is left untreated, and it can prevent the child from succeeding in school. __39__ If bullying (child abuse) is a cause, for example, the bullying situation should be solved. A teacher can meet the child at the door and take him or her to class, and provide support so that the child feels a friendly adult is always available.Changes at home can include supportive language from parents, along with support like assistance with homework. If a child lacks confidence, parents may encourage the child to take up new hobbies. __40__ Parents might also talk to their children about their own fears of school and how they got over them, and their own enjoymentof school and school-like activities.A.

2017-2018学年辽宁省葫芦岛市第一高级中学高一下学期选拔考试英语试题 Word版缺答案
2017-2018学年下学期第一次考试高一年级英语学科试题满分120分 考试时间100分钟第一部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)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,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AI hated dinner parties. But I decided to give them another shot because I'm in London. And my friend Mallery invited me. And because dinner parties in London are very different from those in New York. There "I'm having a dinner party" means: "I'm booking a table for 12 at a restaurant you can ’t afford and we'll be sharing the cheque evenly (平均地), no matter what you eat." Worse, in Manhattan there is always someone who leaves before the bill arrives. They'll throw down cash, half of what they owe, and then people like me, who don't drink, end up paying even more. But if you try to use the same trick, the hostess will shout: "Where are you going ?" And I cannot say I have somewhere to go because everyone knows I have nowhere to go.But in London, dinner parties are in people's homes. Not only that, the guests are an interesting mix. The last time I went to one, the guests were from France, India, Denmark and Nigeria; it was like a gathering at the United Nations. In New York, the mix is less striking. It's like a gathering at Bloomingdatle's, a well-known department store.For New Yorkers, talking about other parts of the world means Brooklyn and Queens in New York. But at Mallery's, when I said that I had been to Myanmar recently, people knew where it was, while In New York people would think it was a usual club. 21. What does the word "shot" in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Try B. Choice . C. Style D. Goal22. What does the writer dislike most about dinner parties in New York? A. There is a strange mix of people. B. The restaurants are expensive. C. The bill is not fairly shared. D. People have to pay cash.姓 名 班 级考 号 装订线内不要答卷23. What does the author think of the parties in London?A. A bit unusualB. Full of tricksC. Less costlyD. More interesting24. What is the author's opinion of some New Yorkers from her experience?A. Easy-going.B. Self-centered.C. Generous.D. Conservative.BWhen I first got an e-mail account ten years ago, I received communications only from family, friends, and colleagues. Now it seems that every time I check my e-mail, I have an endless series of advertisements and other correspondence that do not interest me at all. If we want e-mail to continue to be useful, we need specific laws that make spamming(发送垃圾邮件)a crime.If lawmakers do not do something soon to prohibit spam, the problem will certainly get much worse. Computer programs allow spammers to send hundreds of millions of e-mails almost instantly. As more and more advertisers turn to spam to sell their products, individual(个人的) e-mail boxes are often flooded with spam e-mails. Would people continue to use e-mail if they had to deal with an annoying amount of spam each time?This problem is troubling for individuals and companies as well. Many spam e-mails contain computer viruses that can shut down the entire network of a company. Companies rely on e-mail for their employees to communicate with each other. Spam frequently causes failures in their local communications networks, and their employees are thus unable to communicate effectively. Such a situation results in a loss of productivity and requires companies to repeatedly repair their networks. These computer problems raise production costs of companies, which are, in the end, passes on to the consumer.For these reasons, I believe that lawmakers need to legislate(立法) against spam. Spammers should be fined, and perhaps sent to prison if they continue to disturb people. E-mail is a tool which helps people all over the world to communicate conveniently, but spam is destroying this convenience.25.What does the underlined word "correspondence" in the Paragraph 1 probably mean?A.messages B. ideas C. connections D. programs26. According to the text, what is the major cause of the flooding spam?panies rely on e-mail for communications.B. More people in the world communicate by e-mail.C. Many computer viruses contain spam e-mail.D. More advertisers begin to promote sales through spam.27 . According to Paragraph 3, who is the final victim of spam?B.The business. B.The consumer.C. The employee.D.The advertiser.28.What is the purpose of the text?A. To persuade.B. To educate.C. To inform.D. To instruct.CWe Chinese are not big hungers.A handshake or a pat on the shoulder is enough to convey our friendship or affection to one another.So when our newly-acquainted Western friends reach out in preparation for a hug,some of us feel awkward.Many questions go through our head.Where should I put my arms ? What distance should I maintain? Should our chests touch?But it isn’t just people from cultures that are conservative(保守的)in expressing physical contact who find hugging confusing.Hugs can cause discomfort or even distress in people who value their personal space.In a recent article for The Wall Street Journal,US psychologist Peggy Drexler said that although the US remains a“medium touch”culture,Americans do seem to be hugging more.From politicians to celebrities,hugs are given to friends,strangers and enemies alike,whether they are willing or not;and the public has been quick to pick up the practice.Public figures know that nothing expresses likability(亲和力)like a good hug.US First Lady Michelle Obama has put her arms around icy foreign leaders like Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev and the Queen of England.Pop superstar Lady Gaga is also a hug enthusiast,telling her fans that“I will always,always,try my very best to wrap my arms around you when I meet you.”But not all are grateful to be hugged,even by the most influential and famous.To them,any hug is offensive if it’s not sincere.Amanda Hess,writing for US magazine Slate,says public figures should stop imposing hugs on everyone they meet.For them,a hug is rarely agesture of sincere fellowship,compassion or affection.It’s all part of a show.29.From the first four paragraphs, we can see that ___________.A.we Chinese people don’t know how to hugB.people from European countries often get puzzled about huggingC.people in Western countries seldom use hugs to express their physical closenessD.hugs can bring pressure to people when used improperly30.Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined phrase“pick up the practice”A.Enjoy the medium touch culture.B.Follow the trend.C.Give hugs to enemies.D.Resist physical touch.31.What can we learn from the last paragraphA.People are grateful to hugs of any kind.B.A hug is a gesture of friendship.C.A famous person’s hug is usually sincere.D.An insincere hug is a part of show.DThe bar-tailed godwit (斑尾鷸)has just broken its own record for the world’s longest non-stop flight, including humans in planes, according to a report made by Lund University Press. The bird can fly non-stop for eight days, while the most impressive man-made airplane can only remain in the sky for 82 hours without a stop.The bar-tailed godwit’s journey, from Alaska to New Zealand, covers over 6,835 miles. It completes this trip twice a year, in autumn going to New Zealand, and in spring back to Alaska. The tireless bird ends the trip without stopping once for food or rest. All other birds can only finish trips that are twice as short as what the bar-tailed godwit travels.One reason for the bar-tailed godwit’s success is that it has made the best use of its fuel, which is only 0.41 percent of its body weight over each hour of any given long flight. Hedenstrom, a professor from Lund University, says, “This figure is extremely low compared with other birds.”The bird also has a special body shape that helps it fly easily. It stores body fat and protein to manage its trips. It also travels fast, compared to other birds and animals. Many questions remain about this bird record holder that never gets lost in the air.Researchers wonder whether it has an inside compass (指南针) that helps it to know the direction. Please watch how beautiful bar-tailed godwits look as they come in for a landing, along with other birds.32. For the flight from Alaska to New Zealand, the bar-tailed godwit__________A. should fly less than 7,000 metersB. is afraid of hot weatherC. seems very tired at lastD. doesn’t need to stop to eat33. The main reason why the bar-tailed godwit can break the record is that it ______.A. eats little food every hourB. has a special body shapeC. stores much water in its bodyD. has very light body weight34. The last paragraph tells us that _________.A. researchers have understood the bird very wellB. the bird has a very good sense of directionC. there are still many who doubt the bird’s abilityD. the bird has an inner compass35. what is the text mainly about?A. A bird that breaks the record for the longest non-stop flight.B. Birds and airplanes that can fly over a long distance flight.C. Reasons for the bar-tailed godwit’s long-distance flights.D. An introduction to long-distance flights of birds and humans.EWhile you may be doing everything right, ignoring just one or two steps in the process may keep you from getting a job, especially in this fierce market. Here is a checklist that covers some of the major links in the job-search chain.1, Prepare a good resume. Make sure it is up-to-date and tailored to the types of jobs you are seeking for. 36______If you cannot afford a career coach, give your resume to friends or family members to check. Have copies of your resume printed so that you are ready to handthem out at interview.2,Pay attention to your clothes. Check your wardrobe to ensure that you have the appropriate professional dress, including shoes, ready for interviews.37______.3, 38______Don't isolate yourself from others for days. Network through e-mail messages, phone calls, appointments and meetings keep you in touch with the outside world and prevent you from becoming depressed.4, Follow up properly. It is quite common to apply for a job and never hear back from the company. If you know someone at the company, take measures, such as following up with a phone call a week or so after you apply. 39_____Finally. Recognize that looking for a job is rather difficult. 40_____. Staying in touch with families, friends, professional networks and fellow job seekers can help you to maintain a positive attitude and a sense of perspective. A. Take a look at your interviewing skills. B. Exploit the opportunities of networking. C. Have someone else look at your resume.D. Even at the best of times, a job hunt is often about rejection.E. Often surf the Internet for more information.F. Tidiness in your dress and appearance is necessary. G . Check whether that person will put in a good word for you.第二部分:英语知识运用(共两节,满分45分)第一节 完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A 、B 、C 和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Yet despite the competition, my 8-year-old daughter Rebecca wants to spend her leisure time writing short stories. She wants to enter one of her stories into a writing contest, a competition which she won last year.As a writer, I know about winning contests – and about losing them. I know what it is like to work hard on a story only to receive a rejection letter from the publisher.I also know the pressure of trying to live up to a reputation created by previous masters. What if she doesn’t win the contest again? That’s the strange thing aboutbeing a parent. So many of our own past scars and destroyed hopes can be embodied in our children.An inspiration came last week when I asked her, “Don’t you want to win again?” “No,” she replied, “I just want to tell the story of an angel going to first grade.”I had just spent weeks correcting her stories as she independently told them. Telling myself that I was merely an experienced writer guiding the young writer across the hall, I offered suggestions for characters, conflicts and endings for her tales. The story about a fearful angel starting first grade was quickly “guided” by me into the tale of a little girl with a wild imagination taking her first music lesson.I had turned her contest into my contest without even realizing it.Staying back and giving kids space to grow is not as easy as it looks. While stepping back was difficult for me, it was certainly a good first step that I will quickly follow with more steps, putting myself far enough away to give her room but close enough to help if asked. All the while I will be reminding myself that children need room to experiment, grow and find their own voices.41. Which of the statements will the author agree with?A. Children should be given every chance to voice their opinions.B. Parents should keep an eye on the activities their kids engage in.C. Children should be allowed freedom to grow through experience.D. A writing career, though attractive, is not for every child to pursue.42. Which of the following word can replace the underlined word “embodied” in paragraph 2?A. putB. expressedC. connectedD. included43. Why did Rebecca want to enter this year’s writing contest?A. She wanted to share her stories with readers.B. She was sure of winning with her mother’s help.C. She believed she possessed real talent for writing.D. She had won a prize in the previous contest.44. The author took great pains to improve her daughter’s stories because _______.A. she wanted to help Rebecca realize her dreams of becoming a writerB. she was afraid Rebecca’s imagination might run wild while writingC. she did not want to disappoint Rebecca who needed her help so muchD. she believed she had the knowledge and experience to offer guidanceBA black hole is a place in space where gravity pulls so much that even light cannot get out. The gravity is so strong because matter has been squeezed into a tiny space. This can happen when a star is dying.Because no light can get out, people can’t see black holes. Space telescopes with special tools can help find black holes. The special tools can see how stars that are very close to black holes act differently from other ones.Black holes can be big or small. Scientists think the smallest black holes are as small as just one atom. These black holes are very tiny but have the mass of a large mountain. Mass is the amount of matter, or “staff”, in an object.Another kind of black hole is called “stellar”(星球黑洞). Its mass can be up to 20 times more than the mass of the sun. There may be many stellar mass black holes in Earth’s galaxy. Earth’s galaxy is called the Milky Way.The largest black holes are called “supermassive”(超大质量黑洞). These black holes have masses that are more than one million suns together. Scientists have found proof that every large galaxy contains a supermassive black hole at its center. The supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way galaxy has a mass equal to about four million suns and would fit inside a very large ball that could hold a few million Earths.Scientists think the smallest black holes formed when the universe began. Stellar black holes are made when the center of a very big star falls in upon itself, or falls apart. When this happens, it exploded part of the star into space. Scientists think supermassive black holes were made at the same time as the galaxy they are in.A black hole can not be seen because strong gravity pulls all of the light into the middle of the black hole. But scientists can see how the strong gravity affects the stars and gas around the black hole. Scientists can study stars to find out if they are flying around, or orbiting a black hole.When a black hole and a star are close together, high-energy light is made. This kind of light cannot be seen with human eyes. Scientists use satellites and telescopes in space to see the high-energy light.45. The gravity of a black hole may become so strong that light cannot get out when ____________.A. the star is going to dieB. special tools are used on itC. other stars come close to itD. it is seen from the space telescopes46. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. A black hole can be very tiny but extremely heavy.B. The gravity of a black hole holds all light in its center.C. Scientists observe high-energy light through their own eyes.D. Some small black holes came into being as early as the universe.47. What does the last sentence in Paragraph 5 suggest?A. Neither the sun nor the earth is as heavy as a black hole.B. There is a supermassive black hole at the center of the Milky Way.C. The supermassive black hole had existed before the Milky Way was formed.D. There is a reason why the large black holes are called “supermassive”.48. The last two paragraph mainly focus on the question of _________.A. what a black hole isB. how black holes formC. how big black holes areD. how scientists know about black holes第三部分语法填空Dear fellow students,May I have your attention, please?

Some pour the remains of a meal when there is still much ___52___(leave); ___53___ simply walk away after washing hands, leaving the water ___54___ (run); students leave the classroom every day ___55___ noticing whether fans are switched off.

Researchers have been looking at ring growth from trees to make sense of past weather patterns such as droughts and rain.Combining data from the rings allowed them to create a copy of pictures of climate changes over the past 2, 000 years and this information could also be used to foresee future famine(饥荒), unrest and conflict. The project has been named Old World Drought Atlas, or OWDA.Its main author, Columbia biologist Edward Cook, has already carried out similar projects using trees to create chronological(按顺序排列的) maps of drought in Asia and North-America. He believes that combining the three atlases could throw light on the global causes of drought and climate change.The study, for instance, gave special attention to the importance of one of such causes, the North Atlantic Oscillation(波动) , in affecting climate patterns in Europe, and specifically in making Europe wetter north of the Alps and drier south of them.The OWDA also helped analyse historical events from a climatic perspective. For instance, the 1740-174l famine in Ireland had so far been explained by an unusually cold winter and spring, but the atlas shows that unusually low rainfall over the spring and summer of 1741 could also have played a role. Finally this made growing food nearly impossible and caused a continent-wide famine.A better grasp of these processes could even make it possible to predict future famine, unrest and conflict.Cook said,” The Old World Drought Atlas fills a ma jor geographic gap in the data that's important to determine patterns of climate changes in time. That's important for understanding causes of many droughts, and it's important for climate modelers to test hypotheses(假说) of climate forcing and changes.25. Why is ring growth useful in research?A. It's the best way to understand the past.B. It could be used to predict the future.C. It could be used to prevent the outbreak of droughts and rain.D. It isn't mentioned in the passage.26. People worldwide can read chronological maps of drought_____.A. in AsiaB. in AfricaC. in EuropeD. in South America27. What is the author's attitude toward the study of OWDA?A. Positive. B . Negative. C. Objective. D. Conservative.28. Why did the author of the passage mention what Cook said?A. To show he interviewed Cook himself.B. To tell us the importance of OWDA.C. To compare climate variability.D. To analyze how to predict droughts.CAfter one his close family friends known for her generosity died of cancer in 2003,26-year-old Luke Cameron decided to do at least one good deed a day, for 365 days, and he has not missed yet.The Gloucester resident performed his first good deed on January 1, 2014 with the simple act of greeting a waitress at a café he visited. The next day he bought food and drinks for some hopeless people and followed it up by donating coins to a woman, who did not have enough to feed a parking meter.(汽车停放收费表)Though most of his kind gestures have been welcomed, Luke says there have been a few awkward situations---like when he was attempting to give away a $20 bill to an elderly lady whose granddaughter was doubtful of his intentions or the time he bought a sausage roll for a homeless man who happened to be a vegetarian.The majority of Luke’s good deeds, which have been recorded in an online diary, have been about helping people with small things. He helped to take out the garbage for an elderly neighbor or helped a disabled lady pick out a dress for a party. However, the young man has also spent close to $4000 of his own money, buying groceries or gifts for the children in need.To try to encourage others to perform good deeds, Luke has created a deck of cards called “cards for kindness”. Each suggests a simple act of kindness---things like giving a stranger a hug or making peace with an enemy. The best part is that all the money he collects from distributing the cards is donated to the British Heart Foundation.Luke’s generosity has not gone unnoticed. To reward the young man, Domino’s recently awarded him a year’s supply of free pizza. Not surprisingly, the big- hearted youngster has decided to use the gift to hold special pizza days for charity.29. What inspired Luke to determine to do good deeds?A. The death of a generous friend.B. The simple act of a waitress.C. The suffering of homeless people.D. The experience at a parking lot.30. What happened when Luke tried to help the elderly lady?A. His kind deed was appreciated.B. She turned out to be a vegetarian.C. He bought a sausage roll for a homeless man.D. He was misunderstood by her granddaughter.31. What can we learn about Luke’s good deeds?A. He was employed by a British charity.B. He only helped people with small things.C. He encouraged good deeds through cards.D. He raised $4000 for the children in need.DWhen Chinese women's volleyball team took on Serbia for the Olympic title, 70 percent of Chinese families watched live broadcast on TV, easily beating the audience rating for Lunar New Year Gala.Pushed to the fourth place in group, China met the powerful and two-time Olympic champions Brazil who had unlimited support from their home fans in the quarterfinals.When almost no one believed they could win, the Chinese team came restored from one set down to beat the hosts 3-2 before they avenged their group loss on the Netherlands in the semifinals.Among all the Chinese sports teams, the women's volleyball remain the most special one, whose victories had fueled Chinese confidence in the 1980s and still represent the best things that sports can offer to the Chinese: perseverance, courage and unity.They endured extremely hard training and displayed "never say die" spirit to becoming world champions, which made the Chinese believe the country could be as strong in the world one day as the volleyball players are in sports.After over 30 years of reform and opening up nowadays, China believes the "women's volleyball spirit" is never outdated."My mom cried when I told her about Lang Ping's team's victory in Rio.

This list is several best rules of etiquette that have now disappeared.Opening the DoorIn days gone by, a gentleman would always open doors for ladies. 37 This has now almost entirely disappeared----and it is not entirely the fault of the men.I have seen women laugh at men for opening a door for them. They seem to be confusing manners with chauvinism(大男子主义).Writing Thank-You NotesIn days gone by, whenever a person received a gift, they would write a thank-you note as soon as possible. 38 Parents would sit children down after a birthday or Christmas and coach them in their first thank-you note. It is a shame that gift giving has now become a virtual obligation and the idea of a thank-you note would be laughed at.39We seem to have completely lost the concept of correct timing when it comes to parties these days. 40 After all, a party normally has a guest ofhonor----this is usually the oldest woman present. It was considered extremely rude in the past to leave a party before the guest of honor----and once the guest of honor left, it was a signal to all that they should begin their own preparations to leave.A. Arriving on Time.B. Leaving at the Right Time.C. People leave with various excuses.D. It enabled people to get on well with each other.E. This rule was true even if the giver was a relative.F. It could be the lady they were driving, or a stranger.G. We've thrown away the concept of a guest of honor at will.第三节完形填空(1.5' 20 =30')Dr. K was one of my favorite professors in college.

AFour things that you can't miss in MacaoGo Bungee Jumping at the Macao TowerThe Macao Tower, 338 meters tall, is the world's 10th highest tower, with kinds of activities, such as eating and entertainment. One of the activities is the bungee jump. The Macao Tower Bungee Jump is 233 meters high, making it a Guinness World Record as the highest commercial bungee jump in the world. Raise your arms and off you go! If you are not daring enough to jump that height, you can try the skywalk on the 57th floor—it's still amazing. Take this chance and tick off this item on your list.Enjoy a traditional Portuguese dinnerMacao was once colonized (殖民) by Portugal before 1999. As a result, Portuguese culture has deeply affected Macao.Many Portuguese settled and opened Portuguese restaurants here, but it is more adaptable to Chinese people.Visit a museumMacao, as a little city with only an area of 30.5 square kilometers, has 23 eye-catching museums. Due to its special history, both eastern and western historical relics can be found. Many of them are preserved for cultural relics, tourist spots or museums, such as the Grand Prix Museum, Maritime Museum and Wine museum.Go into an entertainment placeWell known as the "Las Vegas of the Orient", Macao has 33 entertainment places. You can find different themed entertainment places with their hotels and attractions around every corner of Macao, especially on Taipa Island. Among all, The Venetian is the most popular.

Charles T. Cubellis answered the advertisement, sending his reply to a box number. A few days later, he was invited by letter to call for an Interview.Before he called, he spent hours in Wall Street finding out everything possible about the person who had founded the business. During the interview, he remarked: "I should be very proud to be associated with an organization with a record like yours. I understand you started twenty-eight years ago with nothing but a desk room and one assistant. Is that true?"Almost every successful person likes to recall his early struggles. Alice, the boss was no exception. She talked with smile about how she had started with 450 in cash and an original idea. She told how she had fought against discouragement, working on Sundays and holidays, twelve to sixteen hours a day: how she had finally won and until now, the most important executives on Wall Street were coming to her for information and guidance. She was proud of such a record. She had a right to be, and she had a wonderful time telling about it. Finally, Alice questioned Mr. Cubellis about his experience, then called in her assistant and said: "I think this is the person we are looking for."Mr. Cubellis had taken the trouble to find out about the past of his future employer. He showed an interest in the other person and his problems. He encouraged the other person to do most of the talking and made a favorable impression.Most people trying to win others in their own way of thinking do too much talking themselves, Let the other people talk themselves out. They know more about their business and problems than you do.4. What did Charles T. Cubellis do before the interview?A. He telephoned the top leader of the company.B. He searched for information about the boss of the company.C. He prepared for some questions that might be asked.D. He got detailed information about the company's plan.5. How did Alice feel when Charles T. Cubellis mentioned her past experience?A. Moved.B. Shocked.C. Pleased.D. Disappointed.6. What do we know about Alice's road to success?A. It was full of difficulties.B. It was full of opportunities.C. It was smooth and pleasant.D. It was lucky and interesting.7. What was Charles T. Cubellis's key to success of the interview?A. Letting others talk more.B. Talking a lot about himself.C. Focusing on his advantages.D. Answering questions wisely.CIn most parts of the United States, the month of October brings tasty foods, But it also brings frightening creatures! Some say those creatures appear on October 31, known as Halloween. For those who celebrate it, Halloween is the day to scare or be scared.One popular activity is to go to a haunted(闹鬼的) house. A “haunt”means the spirit of a dead person---a ghost(幽灵) Some people say that their houses are haunted by people who used to live there. They say they hear strange footsteps on the stairs, or find objects in places where they did not leave them. On Halloween, some American towns also create haunted houses to frighten children and adults, alike. They are invited to enter a dark doorway, only to be terrified by people dressed as ghosts. This is considered entertaining.The word "haunt" also has a non- scary meaning. As a noun, “haunt” is a place where you often go. In other words, it's a place where you hang out.Now, if something comes back to haunt you, it causes trouble for you as time passes. For example, escaping from school often comes back to haunt students. Escaping from school will cause problems for the student later on. You can also say a bad thing you did or a bad decision you made comes back to bite you. Both phrases mean the same thing. You'll feel free to use "come back to haunt you" in any situation-either official or casual.When we think about something that makes us sad or upset all the time, we can say we are haunted by that thought or image. To use "haunt" in this way, the memory must be sad or upsetting. No one has ever been "haunted" by a happy memory.8. What is the second paragraph mainly about?A. The children's hobbiesB. The location of the haunted houses.C. Some popular activities in the houses.D. One of the meanings of the word "haunt".9. The underlined phrase "Both phrases" in Paragraph 4 refers to _____.A. "come back to haunt you" and "come back to bite you"B. "come back to haunt you" and "say a bad thing"C. "do a bad thing" and "make a bad decision"D. "escape from school" and "cause problems"10. Something comes back to haunt you usually if you ___.A. make great progressB. don't make mistakesC. do something wrongD. behave well at school11. How do you often feel when you are haunted by a memory?A. Happy.B. Calm.C. Sad.D. Unconcerned.DWhen you spend a lot of time with someone, their qualities(品质) can affect you. But what happens when someone is a robot?As artificial intelligence systems become increasingly human, their abilities to influence people also improve. New Scientist reports that children who spend time with a robotic friend appear to pick up its behavior. New experiments suggest that when kids play with a real robot, they gain some of its can-do attitude.Other researchers are seeking to take advantage of similar effects in adults. A group at the Queensland University of Technology is letting a small team of small humanoid (像人的) Nao coach people to eat healthy food. It hopes that chatting through diet choices with a robot, rather than looking for calorie consumption on a smartphone, will be more effective in changing habits.Therefore, as personal robots increasingly enter the home, robots may not just do as we tell them to-they might also become role models, too. And that means we must treat them carefully, because while some stories show the possibilities of positive impacts from robots, others suggest the potential negative influence.Some parents, for example, have complained that Amazon's Alexa personal assistant is training their children to be rude. Alexa doesn't need people to say "please" and "thank you". It can bear answering the same question over and over, and remain calm faced with the angry faces. In short: it isn't ready to teach kids how to communicate with real people.In reality, there isn't yet a fast track to creating robots that are socially intelligent---it remains one of the big unsolved problems of AI. That means that roboticists must instead carefully choose the qualities they wish to be present in their machines, or else risk causing bad influence on our homes.12. What does the underlined word "impacts" in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. Efforts.B. Effects.C. Rewards.D. Challenges.13. According to the text, Amazon's Alexa _____.A. is a good assistant in the officeB. didn’t satisfy all parentsC. gets angry easily at naughty kidsD. does well in communication with kids14. What can we infer about robotic friends?A. They might set a good example to kids in a way.B. They can't guide adults to eat healthy food.C. They are sure to spoil kids and bring disasters to most families.D. They have become extremely socially intelligent like humans.15. What can be the best title for the text?A. How far can artificial intelligence go?B. Robots have walked into thousands of homesC. Science and technology has influenced the growth of childrenD. What happens to children and parents when robots become role models?第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

辽宁省葫芦岛一中2017-2018学年高一下学期课外拓展训
辽宁省葫芦岛一中2017-2018学年高一下学期课外拓展训练(二)英语试卷一、阅读理解English is the most widely used language in the history of our planet. One in every seven human beings can speak it. More than half of the world’s books and three quarters of international mail are in English. Of all languages, English has the largest vocabulary — perhaps as many as two million words.However, let’s face it: English is a crazy language. There is no egg in an eggplant, neither pine nor apple in a pineapple and no ham in a hamburger. Sweet-meats are candy, while sweetbreads, which aren’t sweet, are meat.We take English for granted. But when we explore its paradoxes (探讨它的矛盾), we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square, public bathrooms have no baths in them.And why is it that a writer writes, but fingers don’t fing, grocers don’t groce, and hammers don’t ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, shouldn’t the plural of booth be beeth? One goose, two geese — so one moose, two meese?How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? How can overlook and oversee be opposites, while quite a lot and quite a few are alike? How can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as hell the next?English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects (反映) the creativity of human beings. That’s why, when stars are out, they are visible (能看见的); but when the lights are out, they are invisible. And why, when I wind up my watch, I start it; but when I wind up this essay, I end it.1. According to the passage ______.A. sweet-meats and sweetbreads are different thingsB. there should be egg in an eggplantC. pineapples are the apples on the pine treeD. boxing rings should be round2. Which of the following is the correct plural?A. Beeth.B. Geese.C. Meese.D. Tooth.3. Which of the following includes two items which have the similar meaning?A. A wise man and a wise guy.B. Overlook and oversee.C. Quite a lot and quite a few.D. Hot as hell and cold as hell.4. The underlined words “wind up” in the last paragraph probably mean “______”.A. blowB. roll upC. get hurtD. finish5. Through the many paradoxes in the English language, the writer wants to show that human beings are ______.A. cleverB. crazyC. lazyD. dull第二节The English language is a result of the invasions of the island of Britain over many hundreds of years. The invaders lived along the northern coast of Europe.6 The Angles were a German tribe who crossed the English Channel. Later two more groups crossed to Britain. They were the Saxons and the Jutes. Through many years, the Saxons, Angles and Jutes mixed their different languages. The result is what is called Anglo-Saxon or old English.The next great invasion of Britain came from the far north beginning about l,100 years ago. People called Vikings came to the coastal areas of Britain. 7 Words like "sky" , "leg" , "skull" , "egg" , "lift" and "take" are from the old languagesof the far northern countries.The next invasion of Britain took place more than 900 years ago, in 1066. 8 William the Conqueror led it.The Normans were a French-speaking people from Normandy in the north of France. They became the new rulers of Britain. These new rulers spoke only French for several hundred years. It was the most important language in the world at that time. 9 But the common people of Britain still spoke old English.Old English took many words from the Norman French. Some of these include "damage", "prison" and "marriage". The French language used by the Norman rulers greatly changed the way English was spoken by 800 years ago. 10 Middle English sounds like modernEnglish. But it is very difficult to understand now. The history of the English language continues as Middle English becomes Modern English, which is spoken today.A. History experts call this invasion the Norman Conquest.B. It was the language of educated people.C. English became what language experts call Middle English.D. Therefore most common people speak the language.E. Few people spoke Middle English at that time.F. Many English words used today come from these ancient Vikings.G. The first invasions were by a people called Angles about l,500 years ago.二、完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从36-55各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

Uncle Joe came into the house and looked upset. “Ken , did you let the air out of two tires on my old truck?” he asked me.“No, I would never do that,” I replied.“I guess I must have run over something pointed,” Uncle Joe said.I helped him fill some air into the tires so we could drive to the garage.The garage man couldn’t find anything in the tires. “Maybe Ken was playing a trick on you,” he told Uncle Joe, laughing at me.“I wouldn’t do that!” I said. “Flat tires aren’t funny.”“Maybe some neighborhood kids?”“There are only three who live nearby, and they’re on vacation,” Uncle Joe said. “It’s a mystery.”The next morning was even h otter. Uncle Joe stormed into the house, shouting, “Now three flat tires! Who could be playing such a trick?”I went outside and saw the flat tires. When Uncle Joe went back inside, I decided to solve this mystery myself. I hid behind a bush, keeping an ey e on the truck. “Maybe some kid who is visiting one of our neighbors is doing it. Or maybe a grown-up is angry at Uncle Joe,” I thought. But I couldn’t think of anyone who would be angry at him.The sun got hotter and hotter. I got sleepier and sleepier. Suddenly I heard a long “s” sound. My eyes opened, and I looked at the strangest sigh t I’d ever seen.A crow(乌鸦) was standing beside Uncle Joe’s back tire. With its sharp pointed mouth,it pressed against the tire valve(阀门). Sssst! I could almost hear the crow laughwith pleasure as it spread its wings in the cool wind from the tire.“Uncle Joe,” I shouted, running toward the house. “You’re never going to believethis...”24. Why was Uncle Joe upset?A. It was too hot to work outside.B. He hit something while driving.C. He had two flat tires on his truck.D. The garage man could not fix his truck.25.

If the story continues, Ken will most likely________.A. go to bed because he was so tiredB. take a shower because he was so hotC. tell the garage man what he has seenD. inform Uncle Joe how he has solved themysteryCBritish scientists have discovered evidence that some people are simply born toattract mosquitoes. In experiments they found that people’s body smell attractedthe insects in different ways and this was strongly influenced by genetics.The team, led by scientists at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine,found that pairs of identical twins — who share 100 percent of their genes — areequally attractive to mosquitoes. Non-identical twins, who only share about 50 percentof their genes, however, differ in the degree to which they attract mosquitoes.The results show that the feature has a similar link to genes as height and IQ.The findings build on previous work, which links body smell to the chances of beingattacked by mosquitoes. The team also includes scientists from Nottingham University and the University of Florida. They think that some individuals produce a natural insect repellent (驱虫剂) that keeps them safe.Lead scientist Dr James Logan, from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, said, “By investigating the genetic mechanism (遗传机制) behind attractiveness to biting insects such as mosquitoes, we can move closer to using this knowledge for better ways of keeping us safe from bites and the diseases insects can spread through bites. If we understand the genetic basis for variation between individuals, it could be possible to develop ways to control mosquitoes better, and develop new ways to drive them away. In the future we may even be able to take a pill which will increase the production of natural repellents by the body and finally replace skin lotions (药液).”28. The experiment involving twins suggests that _______.A. mosquito bites may result from genesB. body smell differs from person to personC. body smell is to blame for mosquito bitesD. mosquitoes can be killed by genetic means29. It’s implied in Paragraph 3 that one’s height and IQ _______.A. affect each other greatlyB. are both influenced by genesC. can’t be explained by geneticsD. have a lot to do with the environment30. Why are some people free from mosquito bites according to the text?A. They have taken some pills.B. They use certain skin lotions.C. Their body produces a special smell.D. Their skin contains natural repellents.31. What’s Dr James Logan’s tone like in the last paragraph?A. Concerned.B. Curious.C. Annoyed.D. Hopeful.DWhen looking at Western Europe,we don’t usually think about poverty—but in fact,some people in modern—day Britain are so hard up that they can’t afford to buy food.Back in 2008,the financial crisis caused a lot of unemployment.Then there werethe cuts to the welfare system in 2013 which added to the problem—and many British people fell into debt.It’s estimated that 500,000 people in the UK have turned to food banks,just to get by.Steph Hagen,who works in a Nottingham food bank,says, “People do not go to a food bank because it's an open door.It’s a case where they go to it because they need to.With our food bank—we are an independent one and we have limited stocks—everyone who comes through our door has no income.”There are checks to make sure nobody is abusing the system.If a doctor or a social worker thinks someone needs to use a food bank—even for a short time—they can give them vouchers(凭证).Then the people in need take them along to the food bank and they get handouts for three days.Churches and individual donors provide most of the food in the banks.But some businesses might help out too.And what sort of food is offered in food banks? Hagen says, “Basically,we’ve got porridge.We do occasionally get fresh produce but it’s very rare,especially in the winter months.It’s like tinned fruit,tinned ready meals.We have to give out ‘no-cooking’ food parcels because people can’t afford the gas and electricity”.Community spirit has a lot to do with food banks.Volunteers say they are a great meeting place for people who are lonely and depressed.And when facing a crisis,some beneficiaries might need to feed not only their belly—but also their soul.32.According to the text,the food bank is a place_____.A.which is funded by the governmentB.where people can get food randomlyC.which helps poor people live through crisisD.where there is enough food supplies33.What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 4 refer to? A.Systems. B.Doctors.C.Social workers. D.Vouchers.34.Why do food banks mainly offer “no-cooking ” food?A.Poor people have no money for gas and electricity.B.The volunteers hate to supply cooked food.C.Food banks can’t afford cooked food.D.This kind of food is easy to store.35.What can we learn from the last paragraph?A.Community spirit can cure those who are depressed.B.Food banks benefit poor people mind and body.C.People can have great fun in food banks.D. Volunteers tend to feel lonely and depressed in food banks.第二节七选五(共5小题;每小题2分, 满分10分)Some people believe that really successful students are just born that way. 36 However, the vast majority of successful students achieve their success by developing and applying effective study habits.1. 37Successful students typically space their work out over shorter periods of time and rarely try to crowd all of their studying into just one or two sessions. If you want to become a successful student, then you must have regular, yet shorter, study periods.2. Plan when you’re going to study.Successful students schedule specific time throughout the week when they are going to complete their studying —and then they stick with their schedule. 383. Study at the same time.Not only is it important that you plan when you’re going to study but also that you create a consistent daily study routine and stick with it. Thus, you’ll be mentally and emotionally more prepared for each study session and each study session will become more productive.4.Have a specific goal in each study time39 You need to know exactly what you need to accomplish during each study session. Before you start studying, set a study session goal that supports your overall academic goal.5. Never delay your planned study session.It ’s very easy to put off your study session because of lack of interest in the subject, because you have other things you need to get done first or just because the assignment is hard. 40 If you delay your study session, your studying will become much less effective. Delay also leads to rushing, and rushing is the number one cause of errors.A. Students who study occasionally don’t perform as wel l as students who have a set study schedule.B. Use study groups effectively.C. Start with the most difficult subject first.D. Don`t try to crowd all your studying into one session.E. True, some students are able to finish school with little effort.F. Successful students DO NOT put off studying.G. Simply studying without direction is not effective.第三部分语言知识运用(共两节, 满分45分)第一节完形填空(共20小题;每小题1. 5分, 满分30分)Monkeys are very similar to us in many ways—most have ten fingers and ten toes, and brains much like ours. We enjoy 41 them because they often act like us. In fact, Charles Darwin’s theory of 42 says that monkeys and humans share a common 43 . Monkeys make us smile, 44 they are creatures full of playful tricks. This is why many monkey 45 are about tricky people or playful acts. One of these expressions is monkey shines, meaning tricks or foolish acts. The meaning is 46 if you have ever watched a group of monkeys playfully chasing each other-- 47 tails, stealing food, doing tricks. So, when a teacher says to a group of students: " 48 those monkeyshines right now!" You know that the kids are playing, instead of 49 .You might hear that same teacher 50 a student not to monkey around with 51 equipment. You monkey around with som ething when you don’t know what you are doing.You are touching or playing with something, you should 52 , so next time, don’t “money around on this occasion.Also, you can “monkey around” 53 you feel like doing something, but have no 54 idea of what to do. For example, you tell your friend you are going out to spend the day “ 55 around” with your car. Well, you don’t have any job or goal in 56 --it is just a way to 57 the time.You may “make a monkey out of” someone when you make that per son look 58 . Some people “make a monkey out of” themselves by doing something unwise.If one monkey has fun, 59 how much fun a barrel of monkeys can have? If your friend says he had more fun than a barrel of monkeys at your party, you know that he had a really 60 time.41. A. meeting B. touching C. hearing D. watching42. A. conservation B. evolution C.revolution D.relation43. A. origin B. planet C. ancestor D. future44. A. because B. though C. even if D. as if45. A. descriptions B. mottos C. expressions D. stories46.

Noah Webster, born on October 16, 1758, is known for The American Dictionary of the English Language. He has been called the ―Father of American Scholarship and Education‖. His ―Blue-Backed Speller‖ books were used to teach spelling and reading to five generations of American children. But how much do you know about him beyond that?At the age of 16, Noah Webster began attending Yale College. Unfortunately, he spent his four years at Yale during the American Revolutionary War, and, because of food shortages, many of his college classes were held in Glastonbury, Connecticut. Later, he served in the army.Having graduated from Yale in 1778, Webster wanted to continue his education in order to earn his law degree. He had to teach school in order to pay for his education. He set up many small schools that didn't survive, but he was a good teacher because instead of forcing his students to learn, like most teachers did, he rewarded them.He earned his law degree in 1781, but did not practice law until 1789. Once he started he found the law was not to his liking. Webster did not have much money.In 1793, Alexander Hamilton lent him $1500 to move to New York City to edit a newspaper. In December, he founded New York 's first daily newspaper, American Minerva, and edited it for four years. For decades, he published textbooks, political essays, a report on some diseases, and newspaper articles for his party, He wrote so much that a modern list of his published works required 655 pages .Noah Webster died on May 28, 1843 and was buried in the Grove Street Cemetery.21. What's the main idea of Paragraph l?A. Webster's college education.B. Webster's famous dictionary.C. Webster's daily routines.D. Webster's main achievements.22. Which of the following best describes Webster's life at Yale?A. Tiring.B. Tough.C. Smooth.D. Normal.23 Why was Webster a good teacher?A. Because he often rewarded his students.B.

Webster didn't write any political works.B. Webster was a most productive author.C. Webster led a miserable life in New York City.D. Webster's books added up to 655 pages.BAlthough English is not as old as Chinese, it is spoken by many people around the world every day. English speakers are always creating new words, and we should be able to know where most words come from.Sometimes, however, no one may know really where a word comes from. Did you ever think about why hamburgers are called hamburgers, especially when they are not made with ham( 火腿)? About a hundred years ago, some men went to America from Europe. They came from a big city in Germany called Hamburger. They didn‘t speak good English, but they ate good food. When some Americans saw them eating round pieces of beef, they asked the Germans what it was. The Germans did not understand the question and answered. ―We came from Hamburger.‖ One of these Americans owned a restaurant, and had an idea. He cooked some round pieces of beef like what the men from Hamburger ate. Then he put them between two pieces of bread and started selling them. Today ― hamburgers‖ are sold in many countries around the world.Whether this story is true or not, it certainly is interesting. Knowing why any word has a certain meaning is interesting, too. The reason may be found in any large English dictionary.25.According to the writer, English ______.A.is as old as Chinese B.is not so old as ChineseC.is older than German D.is very difficult to learn26.According to the story,_______.A.few Americans like hamburgers B.hamburgers are made with beefC.hamburgers are made with hamD.hamburgers were sold all over the world about a century ago27.According to the writer, which of the following can be found in any large English dictionary? A.Where all the new words come fromB.Where those Germans came fromC.The reason why any word has a certain meaning.D.The reason why English is spoken around the world28.According to the story, the word ―hamburger‖ comes from ________.A.China because it has a long historyB.England because Germans don‘t speak good EnglishC.the round pieces of beef those people from Hamburger brought to AmericaD.English speakers because they always create new wordsCWhen Mary Moore began her high school in 1951, her mother told her, ―Be sure and take a typing course so when this show business thing doesn‘t work out, you‘ll have something to rely on.‖ Mary responded in typical teenage fashion. From that moment on, ―the very last thing I ever thought about doing was taking a typing course,‖ she recalls.The show business thing worked out, of course. In her career, Mary won many awards. Only recently, when she began to write Growing Up Again, did she regret ignoring her mom. ―I don‘t know how to use a computer,‖ s he admits.Unlike her 1995 autobiography, After All, her second book is less about life as anaward-winning actress and more about living with diabetes (糖尿病). All the money from the book is intended for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF), an organization she serves as international chairman. ―I felt there was a need for a book like this,‖ she says. ―I didn‘t。

All younger generations have always 9 with their elders and it is these differences that bring changes in human 10. However much you disagree with them, give them credit for their 11.With changing times and 12 influences, youngsters no longer know what is interpreted as disrespect to elders. Youngsters should 13 express their views and if there are arguments, they should not 14 their voices.If there is no space on sofas or chairs, children will immediately 15 their places, and sit on the carpet. In buses and trains, youngsters are 16 to give up their places to older people. This is not a 17 of who has more rights. It is simply that those who are younger have the strength to bear 18, or tolerate unpleasantness, so it is natural to show consideration to those who are older and perhaps at a 19 disadvantage.When you do simple things as a mark of respect, elders become 20 that youngsters care for them, and they respond with affection and kindness.1: A.youngsters B.elders C.parents D.juniors 2: A.devote B.owe C.pay D.contribute 3: A.show B.explain C.exhibit D.point4: A.greeting B.receiving C.declaring D.showing 5: A.expressing B.describing C.sending D.suggesting6: A.However B.Therefore C.Besides D.Though A.experiencing with B.going through7:C.suffering from D.worrying out8: A.maybe B.likely C.possibly D.probably9: A.quarreled B.dealt C.lived D.disagreed 10: A.community B.organization C.society D.public11: A.experience B.reality C.emotion D.information 12: A.cultural B.special C.environmental D.position13: A.quietly B.slightly C.silently D.coldly14: A.rise B.raise C.support D.force15: A.give away B.get rid of C.give up D.send out16: A.expected B.forced C.needed D.reminded17: A.doubt B.question C.wonder D.challenge 18: A.suffering B.upset C.trouble D.discomfort 19: A.serious B.light C.heavy D.slight20: A.aware B.alive C.knowing D.sensible阅读When asked about happiness, we usually think of something extraordinary, an absolute delight, which seems to get rarer the older we get.For kids, happiness has a magical quality. Their delight at winning a race or gettinga new bike is unreserved(毫不掩饰的). In the teenage years the concept of happiness changes. Suddenly it’s conditional on such things as excitement, love and popularity.I can still recall the excitement of being invited to dance with the most attractiveboy at the school party.In adulthood the things that bring deep joy----love, marriage, birth----also bring responsibility and the risk of loss. For adults, happiness is complicated(复杂的)My definition for happiness is “the capacity for enjoyment”. The more we can enjoywhat we have, the happier we are. It’s easy to overlook the pleasure we get fromthe company of friends, the freedom to live where we please, and even good health.I experienced my little moments of pleasure yesterday. First I was overjoyed when I shut the last lunch-box and had the house to myself. Then I spent an uninterrupted morning writing, which I love. When the kids and my husband came home, I enjoyed their noise after the quiet of the day.Psychologists tell us that to be happy we need a mix of enjoyable leisure time and satisfying work. I don’t think that my grandmother, who raised 14 children, had much of either. She did have a network of close friends and family, and maybe this is what satisfied her.We, however, with so many choices and such pressure to succeed in every area, have turned happiness into one more thing we’ve got to have. We’ve so self-conscious about our “right” to it that it’s making us miserable. So we chase it and equal it with wealth and success, without noticing that the people who have those things aren’t necessarily happierHappiness isn’t about what happens to us----it’s about how we see what happens to us. It’s the skillful way of finding a positive for every negative. It’s not wishing for what we don’t have, but enjoying what we do possess.1.As people grow older, theyA.feel it harder to experience happinessB.associate their happiness less with othersC.will take fewer risks in pursuing happinessD.tend to believe responsibility means happiness2.What can we learn about the author from Paragraph 5 and 6?A.She cares little about her own healthB.She enjoys the freedom of travelingC.She is easily pleased by things in daily lifeD.She prefers getting pleasure from housework3.What can b informed from Paragraph 7?A.Psychologists think satisfying work is key to happinessB.Psychologists’opinion is well proved by Grandma’caseC.Grandma often found time for social gatheringsD.Grandma’s happiness came from modest expectations of life4.People who equal happiness with wealth and successA.consider pressure something blocking their wayB.stress then right to happiness too muchC.are at a loss to make correct choicesD.are more likely to be happy5.What can be concluded from the passage?A.Happiness lies between the positive and the negativeB.Each man is the master of his own fateC.Success leads to happinessD.Happy is he who is content答案单句语法Holding to cook with at patientlythat whether whoever which whether what That whoever what that/which that that why……that what what where that whether完型BBAAA CBBDC AAABC ABDDA语法 freezing left considering following was asked usual as a surprised whatExciting-excited be free a/ you-we for-to worry-worried it-that but-so interests –interest greatly-greatACDBD。

Marriages improve after children grow up and move out,according to an academic study,which suggests an “empty nest” is not always a bad thing.Popular wisdom has it that parents’ relationships may suffer once their young fly the coop(逃走,走掉),because they feel they have lost their purpose in life.However,a new study by researchers at the University of California,Berkeley,has found that many couples actually feel happier when their children leave home because they are able to enjoy spending time together.In total,123 American mothers born in the 1930s were tracked for 18 years and asked to rate their satisfaction levels shortly after marrying,when they were bringing up babies,once their children reached their teenage years and finally at age 61,when almost all had “empty nests”.Although not all said theywere happier in general,most claimed their marriages had improved since their children had left home. Researchers believe this is not just because the spouses were spending more time together,but because they were able to enjoy each other’s company more.One of the participants in the study,which is published in the journal Psychological Science,said, "Once the kids grow up, there's some of that stress removed, that responsibility removed,so things are a little more relaxing.”Psychologist Sara Gorchoff,who carried out the investigation,said, "The take-home message for couples with young c hildren is ‘hang in there’.” Her coauthor(合著者) Oliver John added, "Don't wait until your kids leave home to schedule quality time with your partner.”However,Dr Dorothy Rowe,from the British Psychological Society,said the effects of living in an “empty nest” will depend on the parents’ relationship with their children.“If you’re just waiting for them to leave home so you can get on with your life,then of course you’ll be pleased to see them go,” she said,“But if you’ve built your life around your children you’ll be terribly lonely. For some parents,their world falls apart when their children leave.”1.It is commonly believed that________.A.marriages improve after children leave homeB.an “empty nest” is always a happy thingC.parents’ relationships may suf fer once their young grow up and move outD.parents will be pleased after their children leave home2.When did many couples feel happier according to the study?A.At age 61,when almost all had “empty nests”. B.Shortly after marrying.C.Once their children reached their teenage years.D.When they were bringing up babies.3.Marriages improve after children fly the coop not because______.A.many couples are able to spend time togetherB.many couples are able to enjoy each other’s companyC.things are a little more relaxing D.many couples needn’t work at all4.The author of the passage tends to agree that________.A.parents should build their life around their kidsB.parents should schedule quality time with each other before kids leave home C.parents’ relati onship with their kids has no effect on marriages at allD.parents should be pleased to see their kids leave home第二节根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出正确的填入空白处,有两项为多余项。

AA woman brought a very limp-looking duck to see a vet. As she laid her pet on the table, the vet pulled out his stethoscope(听诊器) and listened to the bird’s chest.After a moment or two, the vet shook his head and sadly said, “I’m sorry, your duck, Cuddles, has passed away.”The woman was so disappointed and asked, “Are you sure?” “Yes, I am sure. Your duck is dead,” replied the vet.“How can you be so sure?”she protested. “I mean you haven’t done any testing on him or anything. He might just be in a coma(昏迷) or something.”The vet rolled his eyes, turned around and left the room. He returned a few minutes later w ith a black dog. As the duck’s owner looked on in amazement, the dog stood on his back legs, put his front paws on the examination table and sniffed(嗅) the duck from top to bottom. He then looked up at the vet with sad eyes and shook his head. The vet patted the dog on the head and took it out of the room.A few minutes later, he returned with a cat. The cat jumped on the table and also carefully sniffed the bird from head to foot. The cat sat back down, shook his head meowed softly and went out of the room.The vet looked at the woman and said, “I’m sorry, but as I said, this is most definitely, 100% certifiably, a dead duck.”The vet turned to his computer, pressed a few keys and produced a bill, which he handed to the woman.The duck’s owner, still in shock, took the bill. “150 dollars!” she shouted. “150 dollars just to tell me my duck is dead!”The vet shrugged, “I’m sorry. If you had just taken my word for it, the bill would have been 20 dollars, but with the Lab Report and the Cat Scan, it’s now 150 dollars.”21. Why did the vet take a dog and a cat into the examination room?A. To confirm (确认) the duck was dead.B. To give to the woman as pets.C. To comfort the woman.D. To ask them to save the duck’s life.22. How was the woman likely to feel after being told the reason why the bill was 150dollars?A. Awkward.B. AngryC. Sad.D. Delighted.23. The passage is a(n) ________.A. novelB. joke.C. advertisementD. reviewBWhen I was in my fourth year of teaching, I was also (and am still) a high school track and field coach(田径教练). One year, I had a student, John, who entered my class when he was a junior. John changed to our school from Greece, and seemed to be interested in sports, so I encouraged him to join our track team. I explained to him that even though he had never taken part in it before, I did believe that he could do well in any event, and I would be willing to coach him at whichever ones interested him. He accepted the offer, and began to work hard at every practice.About a month later, I had found out from other sources that John was a first-class tennis player, winning various junior awards in his home country. I went to him asking, “John, I really appreciate that you came out for the track team, but why didn’t you play tennis instead? It seems that would interest you a lot more, since you’re so good at it.” John answered, “Well, I like tennis, but you told me that you believed in me, and that you thought I could do well in track, so I wanted to try it for that reason.”From then on, I often remember my student’s reply. I told it to a friend and she suggested I write it down to share somewhere with more teachers. No matter how critical(不满的) students can be of themselves, I’ve found that a simple “I trust that you can do it!” can go a long way!24. According to Paragraph 1, what does the author seem to think more about?A. John’s PE marksB. John’s self-confidenceC. John’s interest in sportsD. John’s state of health25. Why did John take part in the track team?A. He had been an excellent runner.B. He was encouraged by his teacher.C. He liked running more than tennis.D. He had no tennis coach to train him.26. What’s the purpose of this passage?A. to build a close teacher-student relationshipB. to introduce a new way of sports trainingC. to explain the value of sports and gamesD. to show the importance of encouragement27. Who is the passage mainly written for?A. teachersB. ParentsC. studentsD. playersCAnimals, including insects, do not have a language like ours. They do not talk to each other in words and sentences. But if we watch them, we can see that they do have ways of communicating with each other.Can you see the rabbits’ tail? When rabbits see this white tai l moving up and down, they run too. The rabbit has reminded them of potential dangers without making a sound. It has given them a signal.Many other animals use this kind of language. When a cobra(眼镜蛇) is angry, it raises its hood(兜帽) and makes itself look fierce. This warns other animals. When a bee has found some food, it goes back to its home. It cannot tell the other bees where the food is by speaking to them, but it does a little dance in the air. This tells the beeswhere the food is.Some animals say things by making sound. A dog barks, for example, when a stranger comes near. A cat purrs(猫的呜呜声) when pleased. Some birds make several different sounds, each with its own meaning. Sometimes we human beings speak in the same way. We make sounds like “Oh” or “Ah!” when we are frightened or pleased or when we drop something on our toes.But we have something that no animals have-a large number of words which have the meanings of things, actions, feelings or ideas. We are able to give each other all kinds of different information in words and sentences, which no other animals can do. No other animals have so wonderful a language as we have.28. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? _____.A. Animals do have a language like that of human beingsB. Bees communicate with each other by dancingC. Some animals can use wordsD. A dog barks to show its friendliness29. A rabbit uses its tail to _____.A. warn other rabbits of dangerB. tell other rabbits where food isC. make itself look fierceD. help it to run fast30. What is this passage mainly about? _____.A. Human’s language is more wonderful than animals’ languageB. People should pay attention to animals’ body language and soundsC. Animals have their own ways to communicate with each otherD. Animals are smarter than we think31. Several different sounds can be made by a _____.A. rabbitB. beeC. birdD. catDI was an introvert (内向的人) by nature. For as long as I remember, putting on a sincere smile when meeting someone had never been easy. The key to a sincere smile however, is simple. It’s to be excited. But that’s the source of the problem. When meeting people, instead of being excited, I often felt upset.But we all know friends are important. The more friends you have, the more opportunities you get, whether it’s job opportunities, a romantic relationship, or business partners. So a smile is important to make others feel comfortable. Mother Teresa said, “Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing.”The smile I’m now talking about is not to make a face to cashiers(收银员) or waiters. I’m talking about those wide smiles you make when meeting old friends. So I’ve discovered a trick. And I call this technique(技巧) “Oh, it’s Jamie!”When I meet someone, I imagine an old friend of mine called Jamie who was my first friend when we were still kids. It’s no secret why my smile is as wide as I can possibly make. And it’s not just the smile, but my tone and attitude that turn warm as well.And the best part, whenever you’re friendly to others, they turn friendly in return. You’re not hearing this from me. Some research done by scientists actually backs this claim. So do remember to give it a try.Three years ago at the age of 23, I took a long hard look at my life and decided that I was nothing. Tired of my life, I set about making dramatic changes and now I have become a popular writer. My success reflects(显示) that nothing is too difficult if you try bravely.32. What do we know fro m Mother Teresa’s words in Paragraph 2?A. We can’t live without the help of our friends.B. A smile is important to make others feel comfortable.C. Many people don’t know the importance of a smile.D. People who always smile are sure to have many friends.33. Which of the following sayings can we infer from the passage?A. A friend in need is a friend indeed.B. Every road leads to Rome.C. A good beginning is half success.D. Try and try, never say die.34. The author writes this passage mainly to ________.A. tell us how to make friendsB. tell us how he achieves successC. encourage us to perfect our smileD. describe what a sincere smile is35. From Paragraph 1 we learn that the author ________.A. found it difficult to show a sincere smile to peopleB. felt excited but nervous when meeting peopleC. became an introvert because of his surroundingsD. didn’t want to smile at others第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

葫芦岛市第一高级中学课外拓展训练高二英语学科阅读理解Scientists have been interested for years in the observation that ratios(比率)of finger lengths differ in men and women. In men, the ring (fourth) finger is usually longer than the index (second); their socalled 2D∶4D ratio is lower than 1. In females, the two fingers are more likely to be the same length. Because of this sex differences, some scientists believe that a low ratio could be a marker for higher prenatal hormone(产前激素) levels, although it's not clear how the hormone might influence finger development. The 2D∶4D ratio has also been fingered in connection with brainrelated characteristics—most often in males—such as depression, left handedness, musical ability, and homosexuality.In the latest such study, psychologist Mark Brosnan and colleagues at the University of Bath in the United Kingdom photocopied the hands of 74 boys and girls aged 6 and 7.They compared the measurements of the second and fourth fingers with the children's scores on a standard UK test of math and literacy.In boys, the lower the ratio, the better their math score, the team reports in the May issue of the British Journal of Psychology. The boys with the lowest ratios also were the ones whose abilities were most skewed in the direction of math rather than literacy. These differences are small but significant, says Brosnan. With the girls, there was no correlation between finger ration and numeracy, but those with higher ratios—probably indicating low hormone levels—had better scores on verbal abilities.These sexspecific correlations show how tricky it is to define the roles of sex hormones, says psychologist S.Marc Breedlove of Michigan State University in East Lansing. The range of normal levels of the hormone is different in males and females, so comparable levels would have very different meanings depending on the sex of the individual. And the timing of hormone surges is as important as levels.Nevertheless, Brosnan believes finger measurements might be useful for predicting cognitive abilities—although he acknowledges that “we are not suggesting that finger length measurements could replace SAT tests”. Others are more cautious, pointing out that scientists still have not confirmed that finger ratio is a reliable marker for prenatal hormone levels.1 .What can we learn from the first paragraph?A.Scientists never show interest in people's fingers.B.Many women have different kinds of fingers.C.In males, the ring finger may equal the index in length.D.In females, the ring finger may equal the index in length.2 .What is the author's attitude to Brosnan's research?A.Supportive.B.Positive.C.Neutral.D.Indifferent.3. We can infer from the passage that________.A. in girls, the higher the ratio, the better their maths scoresB. finger length contributes to people's academic abilitiesC. it is easy to give a definition of the roles of sex hormonesD. Brosnan is serious about his research4 .What's the main idea of this passage?A. Finger ratio is critical to people's future.B. Finger length measurements may be useful.C. Finger length is related to children's scores.D. Finger ratio is a reliable maker for hormone levels.七选五How to Create a Mind MapMost of us think visually but we write textually. 36 It also makes the information we list more difficult to process, remember, and share.37 It combines the brain’s visual nature with our tendency to write down words. We end up with a diagram that combines logic and order in a less structured manner. This promotes clearer thinking and better comprehension. 38So, how do you create a mind map? The most basic method is to just use a pen and paper, or a marker and whiteboard. It begins with a central topic or idea, then flows outward. 39 The next level of topics is represented by branches extending from it.There aren’t really any rules for creating mind maps. While most flow outwardly from the central topic, some users prefer to build mind maps in one direction. 40 This can make groups of ideas easier to identify and remember. It also makes a mind map more enjoyable to create and use.Mind maps are extremely effective for taking notes, planning a project, brainstorming an idea, presenting information to others, and many other uses. Take out your pen and have a try.A. They help to clarify thinking.B. This goes against how our minds actually work.C. They help us save time by focusing on key issues.D. A mind map is the perfect answer to this dilemma.E. Think of it as a tree, where the central point is the trunk.F. It’s also a lot more enjoyable than simply writing down lists.G. Others like to add colors, pictures, or symbols in their mind maps.完形填空On Sunday morning in Rio, 41 Chinese women’s volleyball tea m captain Hui Ruoqi made a powerful spike (扣杀) to seal it 19-25, 25-17, 25-22, 25-23, applause and cheers almost 42 the roof of the stadium.
