Here are some findings and expert advice.1. How many times did you brush your teeth yesterday?·Finding：A full 33% of seniors brush their teeth only once a day.·Step：Remove the 300 types of bacteria in your mouth each morning with a battery-operated toothbrush.Brush gently for 2 minutes, at least twice a day.2. How many times did you wash your hands or bathe yesterday?·Finding：Seniors, on average, bathe fewer than 3 days a week. And nearly 30%wash their hands only 4 times a day-half of the number doctors recommend.·Step：We touch our faces around 3,000 times a day-often inviting germs（病菌）to enter our mouth, nose, and eyes. Use toilet paper to avoid touching the door handle. And, most important, wash your hands often with hot running water and soap for 20 seconds.3. How often do you think about fighting germs?·Finding：Seniors are not fighting germs as well as they should.·Step：Be aware of germs. Do you know it is not your toilet but your kitchen sponge（海绵）that can carry more germs than anything else? To kill these germs, keep your sponge in the microwave for 10 seconds.56. What is found out American seniors?A. Most of then have good habits.B. Nearly 30%of then bathe three days a week.C. All of then are fighting germs better than expected.D. About one third of them brush their teeth only once a day57. Doctors suggest that people should wash their hands .A. twice a dayB. three times a dayC. four times a dayD. eight times a day58.

The text probably comes from .A. a guide bookB. a popular magazineC. a book review D .an official documentBUsing too much water or throwing rubbish into our rivers are clear ways that humans can put our water supply in danger, but we also affect our water supply in less obvious ways .You may wonder how paving(铺砌) a road can lead to less useable fresh water . A major part of the water we use every day is groundwater. Groundwater does not come from lakes or rivers. It comes from underground. The more roads and parking lots we pave, the less water can flow into the ground to become groundwater .Human activity is not responsible for all water shortages(短缺). Driver climates are of course more likely to have droughts(干旱) than areas with more rainfall ,but in any case, good management can help to make sure there is enough water to meet our basic needs .Thinking about the way we use water every day can make a big difference ,too In the United States, a family of four can use 1.5tons of water a day ! This shows how much we depend on water to live ,but there‘s a lot we can do to lower the number .You can take steps to save water in your home .To start with, use the same glass for your drinking water all day. Wash it only once a day .Run your dishwasher (洗碗机)only when it is full. Help your parents fix any leaks in your home. You can even help to keep our water supply clean by recycling batteries instead of throwing them away.60. Which of the following is most likely to lead to less groundwater?A. Using river water. B .Throwing batteries away.C. paving parking lots.D. Throwing rubbish into lakes.61. What can be inferred from the text?A. All water shortages are due to human behavior.B. It takes a lot of effort to meet our water needs.C. There is much we can do to reduce family size.D. The average family in America makes proper use of water.62. The last paragraph is intended to .A. show us how to fix leaks at homeB. tell us how to run a dishwasherC. prove what drinking glass is best for usD. suggest what we do to save water at home63. The text is mainly about .A. Why paving roads reduces our waterB. how much we depend on water to liveC. why droughts occur more in dry climatesD. how human activity affects our water supplyCWhen 19-year-old Sophia Giorgi said she was thinking of volunteering to help the Make-A-Wish Foundation (基金会)，nobody understood what she was talking about .But Sophia knew just how important Make– A–Wish could be because this special organization had helped to make a dream come true for one her best friends .We were interested in finding out more, so we went along to meet Sophia listen to what she had to say .Sophia told us that Make – A –Wish is a worldwide organization that started in the United States in 1980. ―It‘s a charity(慈善机构)that helps children who have got very serious illnesses. Make– A–Wish help children feel happy even though they are sick, by making their wishes and dreams come true,‖ Sophia explained .We asked Sophia how Make– A–Wish had first started .She said it had all begun with a very sick young boy called Chris, who had been dreaming for a long time of becoming a policeman. Sophia said lots of people had wanted to find a way to make Chris‘s dream come true—so, with everybody‘s help, Chris, only seven years old at the time ,had been a ―policeman‖ for a day .‖ when people saw how delig hted Chris was when his dream came true, they decided to try and help other sick children too ,and that was the beginning of Make– A–Wish,‖ explained Sophia Sophia also told us the Foundation tries to give children and their families a special, happy time. A Make–A–Wish volunteer visits the families and asks the children what they would wish for if they could have anything in the world. Sophia said the volunteers were important because they were the ones who helped to make the wishes come true. They do this either by providing things that are necessary, or by raising money or helping out in whatever way they can.64. Sophia found out about Make– A–Wish because her best friend had.A. benefited from itB. volunteered to help itC. dreamed about itD. told the author about it65. According to Sophia, Make-A-Wish .A. is an international charityB. was understood by nobody at firstC. raises money for very poor familiesD. started by drawing the interest of the public66. What is said about Chris in Paragraph3?A. He has been a policeman since he was seven.B. He gave people the idea of starting Make– A–WishC. He wanted people to help make his dream come true.D. He was the first child Make– A–Wish helped after it had been set up.67. Which of the following is true about Make– A–Wish volunteers?A. They are important for making wishes come true.B.

Here are some examples of rudeness.Some people prefer to do almost everything over the internet. To them, dealing with an actual human is like an evolutionary step backward. It feels very slow because humans don‘t work at 4G speeds. When you have dinner with friends, you will often notice someone paying more attention to his mobile phone. We have programmed ourselves to think that every new message brings life-changing news, so taking calls and checking our texts are more important than talking to the people we are with. What is worse, some people even tend to send anonymous（匿名的）rude messages by email.However, rudeness is never acceptable, Don‘t assume it is OK to be rude if the person you‘re in touch with won‘t recognize you. If you have something awful to say, have the courage to face the person and say it, write a letter or email and sign it, or forget it. Upsetting people with unsigned messages is cruel and disgusting.We shouldn‘t blame technology for our shortcomings. T echnology is here to help us, but we should not allow it to take over our lives. An important step is acknowledging our shortcomings. People spend a lot of time pointing out bad manners but it would be even more help if we‘d publicly acknowledge good manners when we see them.68. What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in Paragraph I?A. People can tell good from bad behavior.B. Radar is able to observe human behavior.C. People care little about their behavior.D. Radar can be used to predict human behavior.69. Some people are less willing to deal with humans becauseA. they are becoming less patientB. they are growing too independentC. they have to handle many important messagesD. they have to follow an evolutionary step backward.70. The author thinks sending unsigned awful messages isA. RidiculousB. disgustingC. acceptableD. reasonable71. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. We should applaud good behavior.B. Technology can never be blamedC. We should keep pointing out mistakes.D. T echnology will take over lives one day.EArgentina in the late nineteenth century was an exciting place. Around 1870, it was experiencing an economic(经济的)boom, and the capital, Buenos Aires, attracted many people.

Soldiers who returned to the United States from World War I brought the tango to North America, It reached Japan in 1926, and in 2003 the Argentinean embassy in Seoul hired a local tango dancer to act an a kind of dance ambassador, and promote tango dancing throughout South Korea.72.

The little seaside villages are 36 , one by one. "There is my grandmother's house," I say, 37 across the bay to a shabby old house.I am in Nova Scotia on a pilgrimage (朝圣) with Lise, my granddaughter, seeking roots for her, retracing (追溯)38 memory for me. Lise was one of the mobile children, 39 from house to house in childhood. She longs for a sense of 40 , and so we have come to Nova Scotia where my husband and I were born and where our ancestors 41 for 200 years.We soon 42 by the house and I tell her what it was like here, the memories 43 back, swift as the tide (潮水).

To know where I come from is one of the great longings of the human 53 To be rooted is "to have an origin". We need 54 origin. Looking backward, we discover what is unique in us; learn the 55 of "I".

They were the "in" thing and it seemed every girl except me had one. On my 13th birthday, my Mum gave me a signet ring with my initials(姓名首字母) carved into it. I was in heaven.What made it even more special was that it was about the only thing that wasn't being "replaced". We'd been burnt out in fires that swept through our area earlier that year and had lost everything—so most of the " new" stuff (东西) we got was really just to replace what we'd lost. But not my ring. My ring was new.Then, only one month later, I lost it. I took it off before bed and it was missing in the morning. I was sad and searched everywhere for it. But it seemed to have disappeared. Eventually, I gave up and stopped looking for it. And two years later, we sold the house and moved away.Years passed, and a couple of moves later, I was visiting my parents' when Mum told me that she had something for me. It wasn't my birthday, nor was it Easter or Christmas or any other gift-giving occasion. Mum noticed my questioning look. " You'll recognize this one," she said, smiling.Then she handed me a small ring box. I took it from her and opened it to find my beautiful signet ring inside. The family who had bought our house 13 years earlier had recently decided to do some redecorations, which included replacing the carpets. When they pulled the carpet up in my old bedroom, they found the ring. As it had my initials carved into it, they realized who owned the ring. They'd had it professionally cleaned up by a jeweler before sending it to my mother. And it still fits me.56. The underlined word "in" in the first paragraph probably means "_____".A. fashionableB. availableC. practicalD. renewable57. When she got the ring back, the writer was about _____.A. 13 years oldB. 15 years oldC. 26 years oldD. 28 years old58. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. The writer's family moved several times.B. The writer never stopped looking for her ring.C. The writer's ring was cleaned up by the new house owner.D. The writer lost her ring in the morning when she took it off.59. What would be the best title for the passage?A. My New RingB. Lost and FoundC. Lost and ReplacedD. An Expensive RingBYour glasses may someday replace your smartphone, and some New Yorkers are ready for the switch. Some in the city can't wait to try them on and use the maps and GPS that the futuristic eyewear is likely to include. " I'd use it if I were hanging out with friends at 3 a. m. and going to the bar and wanted to see what was open," said Walter Choo, 40, of Fort Greene.The smartphone-like glasses will likely come out this year and cost between $250 and $600, the Times said, possibly including a variation of augmented(增强的) reality, a technology already available on smartphones and tablets (平板电脑) that overlays information onto the screen about one's surroundings. So, for example, if you were walking down a street, indicators would pop up showing you the nearest coffee shop or directions could be plotted out and come into view right on the sidewalk in front of you." As far as a mainstream consumer product, this just isn't something anybody needs," said Sam Biddle, who writes for . " We're accustomed to having one thing in our pocket to do all these things," he added, "and the average consumer isn't gonna be able to afford another device (装置) that's hundreds and hundreds ofdollars. "9to5Google publisher Seth Weintraub, who has been reporting on the smartphone-like glasses since late last year, said he is confident that this type of wearable device will eventually be as common as smartphones. "It's just like smartphones 10 years ago," Weintraub said. "A few people started getting emails on their phones, and people thought that was crazy. Same kind of thing. We see people bending their heads to look at their smartphones, and it's unnatural," he said. " There's gonna be improvements to that, and this a step there. "60. One of the possible functions of the smartphone-like glasses is to ____.A. program the opening hours of a barB. supply you with a picture of the futureC. provide information about your surroundingsD. update the maps and GPS in your smartphones61.

But today she would certainly have had a very different life, as would her characters. Here's my own suggestion. . .It is a truth finally and universally acknowledged that a single woman with brains deserves to have equal opportunities to men, however disadvantaged she may feel by sexism." My dear husband," said his hopeful wife one day, " have you heard that the local store, standing empty for so long, is taken over by a bright young businesswoman?"Her dull and indifferent (漠不关心的) husband replied that he had not. "But it is, it is," she replied excitedly. Mr Dull-Husband made no reply."Don't you want to know her plans?" she cried with some impatience."Well, clearly you think it matters to your silly little head. .. so I'd better listen. ""Well, my dear, the rumour (传言) is that she has already set up a string of successful businesses in northern England, though how a woman can know anything about that is beyond me. She will move in herself next month. " "What is her name?" "Bingley. ""Is she married or single?""What a question! And none of your business. But her coming will be a fine thing for our five boys. " "How so? How can it possibly affect them? ""My dear love; those lazy boys need something to wake them up. There are bound to be jobs going. "" Is that her point in settling here? Surely as a woman she has simply taken a fancy to the place. "" Nonsense, my love, how little you've noticed the world has changed. She's got a first-rate degree and some sort of business qualification, I'm told. She surely needs one of our boys! Perhaps you might give her a call. " " Me? No. Perhaps you can take an interest. You still have your looks, after all. She may even offer you a job. " "Oh, that's not likely. These new chances belong to the younger generation. But now you mention it, I think I'll go along all the same. "And Mrs Bennet went along. That was 10 years ago. She is now managing director of a FTSE-listed company. ... It would remain the case, of course, that Mrs Bennet would be one of very few women on the company board, that her salary would be lower than her male colleagues, her bonus of a more "female" dimension and her lifespan (年限) among the city's business leaders shorter than theirs. Still, she'd no doubt have enjoyed Davos—and might even have hobnobbed (攀谈) with influential figures.67. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Austen was born 200 years ago.B. Austen rewrote Pride and Prejudice.C. Austen's success lies in her wisdom.D. Austen's updated work gains popularity.68. The underlined part in the passage suggests that Mrs Bennet ____.A. had mixed feelings of admiration and surprise about BingleyB. felt kind of worried and doubtful about BingleyC. was extremely anxious to meet BingleyD. had a great curiosity about Bingley69. In the eyes of Mrs Bennet, Bingley surely needed one of their boys to ____.A. get married toB. work for herC. help her move inD. take over her store70. What does the writer intend to tell us?A. Women with brains can also be as successful as men.B. Women have to pay a high price for success.C. A judgment must be made free from prejudice.D. Sex discrimination still exists nowadays.EA MENTORING (导师制) program is giving life changing opportunities to Banbury youth.Young Inspirations was founded two years ago to provide mentoring sessions for students and unemployed young adults aged 11 to 21.Alex Goldberg, the program's founder, said; "We set up Young Inspirations because we wanted to give young people experiences which will potentially be life changing and broaden their outlook."We try to create work experience opportunities that will really make a difference to our youth. For example, we've secured internships (实习) with world-famous firms such as Honda."At a time of funding cutbacks where schools are finding it more and more difficult to offer this kind of mentoring, it is extremely important that these opportunities are available both to help youth with their school work and grades and to give them opportunities which may help shape their futures. " Kieran Hepburn, 14, is one of a group of Banbury youth who has benefited from the program so far. In October the Banbury School pupil was accompanied by Young Inspirations staff to Paris where he was an observer at the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization's (UNESCO) International Youth Forum (论坛).The event was held for young people from around the world, to seek their views on how the future of youth and education should look. Kieran joined several hundred observers mostly in their 20s and was the only UK school pupil to attend the event. Kieran thinks the trip was a life changing experience. " Before we left I didn't quite know what to make of it but when we got there we didn't stop, it was amazing," he said, " We went to three or four hours of debates each day and then did something cultural each afternoon. "The main theme of the forum was how youth can drive change in political and public life. It dealt with issues (问题) such as drug abuse, violence and unemployment.Kieran said: " It has really helped me to improve my confidence and social skills as well as my school grades and I was voted most improved pupil at school in August.

高中英语真题:2013高考英语二轮阅读理解精选（26）及答案AThe passengers on the subway who caught a glimpse of me m ay have thought I was strange. In particular a gentleman sitting opposite me was always staring at me, looking at the cheese br ead on the floor in front of me and then staring back at me. A p assenger probably dropped it by mistake and got off at a previo us stop, but the gentleman might not think so. “Next stop, St. P atrick Station”— my stop was quickly coming up. I had few min utes to either take the cheese bread, which nobody else was cl aiming, or left it there.In those few minutes I felt my pride getting in the way. “What w ould others on the subway think of me if I took the cheese brea d? Would they think that I was poor and hungry? Would they thi nk that I was stealing?” The ignorant thing to do was say “yes” t o any of those self-imposed questions. Actually, they were just my own thoughts. T hough I would leave the subway, walk a block to my office, get settled at my desk, and sit comfortably in my office for the whole day, I couldn’t get rid of the enormous sense of guilt and regr et.My thoughts once pushed me towards pride and ignorance, but finally I had to admit I was wrong. This missing cheese bread c ould be a gift for a homeless person who suffered from cold and hunger. So why not overcome a little bit of my pride and pass a long so much kindness?Just as the doors opened at my stop, I grabbed the cheese bre ad and left the subway. It felt awesome(可怕的), but I didn’t care if people were looking at me or what they w ere thinking. Instead of going directly to my office as usual, I wa lked a few more blocks up to Queen’s park, where I often saw a homeless man sitting outside. I always wanted to give him som ething, but only today I walked toward him, who wrapped himse lf in a sleeping bag. I was full of satisfaction, and so did the hom eless man, I thought.The gentleman kept staring at the author because _______.he wanted to talk to the authorthe author appeared too nervousthe author was going to get offhe might think the author dropped the breadThe underlined word “self-imposed” in paragraph 2 probably means “_______”.A. easily obtained(获得)B. deliberately (深思熟虑地)createdC. strongly supportedD. completely unaccepted58. Why did the author grab the cheese bread when he got off?A. He noticed that no one was looking at him.B. He didn’t want to see the cheese bread to go to taste.C. He valued kindness more than his own pride.D. He remembered a homeless man at that very moment.BRecently we’ve observed an increasing request from disadvant aged and regional schools for attending one of our zoo areas at no cost or partly paid some organizations.

More than 25 per cent of Americans 50 years and older stay connected using site s such as Facebook, MySpace and Twitter, according to new re search.“The latest data tells us that more and more social networking is becoming a part of everyday life for Americans 50 plus,” saidKevin Donnellan, the chief communications officer at AARP, w hich released the report.Nearly a quarter of older Americans are on Facebook and 73 percent said they use it to stay in touch with relatives, but not ju st their children and grandchildren. “They are using the Internet to keep up with the world and the people who are important to t hem,” said Jean Koppen, the author of the report. She added th at older adults are also on Facebook to stay connected, not onl y with their family, but with their friends and those in the same a ge group. Almost 50 percent of older adults were introduced to t he social networking sites by a family member, mainly a child or grandchild. “Just under one-fifth of adults aged 50 and older say they do not use the Interne t,” according to the report.The findings are based on a telephone survey of 1,863 adults. In addition to keeping up on Facebook and Twitter older adults are aware of the latest technology. Eighty-three percent had heard about the Apple iPad and 11 percent in tended to buy one.Despite the popularity of the Internet among the over 50s, the y still mostly go to print newspapers and magazines for news.

A novel.B. A newspaper.C. A technology guide.D. A student’s research paper D.There is a big question making the rounds （巡视）among the parents at my daughter’s class. Should the kids refe r to the parents’ friends as “Mr.Jones” or “Mrs.Smith”, rather th an using their first names? I was quite shocked, having come fr om a home where it would have been unheard of to refer to one of my parents’ friends by their first names. This was reserved f or only the closest of family friends and relatives, and even they always had “Aunt” or “Uncle” in front their name.Respect is something that is earned. Unlike many of the othe r virtues we try to nurture（培养）in our kids, respect is a bit more complicated. It is not only nece ssary when dealing well with others, but the virtue of self-respect is critical for kids to succeed and feel good about thems elves and their choices throughout their lives.There are several factors that can have a big impact on kids and their ability to be respectful. The first one to consider is ma nners. Calling adults by their surnames, setting proper example s during sporting events and while driving, and how we talk to e ach other in our homes all can have an enormous effect on a ch ild’s concept of respect and how important it is. Many of these seemingly trivial（微小的）ideas have become almost outdated, but one should seriously c onsider the value of these ideas before casting（抛弃） them aside. It is easy to become unaware of these behavi ors. Try to keep track of how often your child is subjected to （容易受到） this kind of disrespect.The media, as you may have guessed, plays a large part in t he increase in disrespect. Movies are equally to blame, with a P G movie often containing an abundant amount of profane langu age.These factors and others all contribute to an alarming increas e in disrespect in society. If we don’t step in and change course , we will find living in a morally respectful culture unlikely.67. What does the author think of kids’ referring to parent s’ frien ds by their first names?A. It is common in his family.B. It is OK if the friends are close.C. Such behavior lacks respect.D. Such behavior sounds funny.68. What advice does the author give in the passage?A. Parents should correct kids’ bad behavior before children.B. Parents should mind their behavior before children.C. Parents should nurture kids’ self-respect from birth.D. Parents should choose suitable movies for kids.69. The underlined word “profane” in the fourth paragraph mea ns “________”.A. rudeB. simpleC. complicatedD. respectful70.

2013高考英语新课标单选完形及阅读答案及解析
2013高考英语新课标全国卷单选题答案及解析本次单项选择考试特点：考点经典、语境定调。
考查重点：时态语态(2道)；从句(状从、名从、定从各一)；非谓语动词(3道)；介词，冠词，情态动词以及副词题目各一道。
2013年的新课标卷延续了去年的风格，拿单选题目来说，题干不再有冗杂的文字，言简意赅，放弃了华而不实的题目设计，回归语言基础，同时在题目的设计中强调语法、语言的实用性。
如加入了对基本句式的考查和更多学生在生活中可以用到说到的对话及句子。
可以说无论在内容上还是在务实的角度上比起前几年都有了较大的突破和革新，且难度不小。
这一转变也许反而让考生们措手不及，毕竟学校练习的高频考点与本年度题目设计有一定的出入。
但从单选出题重点来分析，从句、时态、虚拟语气的考查比例都有所下降，甚至连虚拟语气都没考。
常规考点保留情态动词和介词，同时加入副词比较级的考查，再一次表明了考点务实、重视基础这一转变。
同学们今后在学习过程中也要打好基础，不可凭印象盲目做题。
遇到难题应冷静分析，句式类题目从句意和成分角度入手解题，词(动词、代词、介词等)类题目则从句意和该内容基本用法和功能上入手解题，如动词时态要清楚动作发生时间、顺序和主被动等。
另外今年新课标卷考试对考生翻译和对对话情景的理解和感悟要求不低，建议同学在平时训练是加强对这一点的训练。
21. —Why, this is nothing but commonvegetable soup!—______madam. It’s our soup of the day。
A. Let me seeB. So it isC. Don’tmention itD. Neither do I【考点】情景交际【答案】B【解析】本题考查语境感悟能力，A。
让我来看看B。
确实是C。
别提了D。
我也不虽然情景不易，但是四个选项明显风马牛不相及，其余三个放在句中对话都不通顺。
【句意】——怎么，这不就是普通蔬菜汤么？——就是啊，女士。
