阅读理解（三）1、A Competitive SportCheerleadingOver th e years, cheerleading has taken two primary forms: game-time cheerleading and competitive cheerleading. Game-time cheerleaders’ main goal is to entertain the crowd and lead them with team cheers, which should not be considered a sport. However, competitive cheerleading is more than a form of entertainment. It is really a competitive sport.Competitive cheerleading includes lots of physical activity. The majority of the teams require a certain level of tumbling (翻腾运动) ability. It’s a very common thing for gymnasts, so it’s easy for them to go into competitive cheerleading. Usually these cheerleaders integrate lots of their gymnastics experience including their jumps, tumbling, and overall energy. They also perform lifts and throws. This is where the “fliers” are thrown in the air, held by “bases” in different positions that require strength and working with other teammates.Competitive cheerleading is also an activity that is governed by rules under which a winner can be declared. It is awarded points for technique, creativity and sharpness. Usually the more difficult the action is, the better the score is. That’s why cheerleaders are trying to experience great difficulty in their performance.Besides, there is also a strict rule of time. The whole performance has to be completed in less than three minutes and fifteen seconds, during which the cheerleaders are required to stay within a certain area. Any performance beyond the limit of time is invalid.Another reason for the fact that competitive cheerleading is one of the hardest sports is that it has more reported injuries. According to some research, competitive cheerleading is the number one cause of serious sports injuries to women. Emergency room visits for it are five times the number than for any other sport, partially because cheerleaders don’t use protective equipment. Smiling cheerleaders are thrown into the air and move down into the arms of the teammates, which may easily cause injuries. Generally, these injuries affect all areas of the body, including wrists, shoulders, ankles, head, and neck.There can be no doubt that competitive cheerleading is a sport with professional skills. Hopefully, it will appear in the Olympics since cheerleaders are just as athletic and physically fit as those involved in the more accepted sports. It should be noted that it is a team sport and even the smallest mistake made by one teammate can bring the score of the entire team down. So without working together to achieve the goal, first place is out of reach.1.What is the main purpose of competitive cheerleading?A.To compare skills of participants.B.To make the audience feel amused.C.To attract more people to watch events.D.To cheer up the competitors on the court.2.The underlined word “integrate” in Paragraph 2 probably means “______”.A.examinebineC.identifyD.replace3.We can learn from the passage that competitive cheerleading ______.cks necessary guidelines to followB.enjoys greater popularity than other sportsC.requires more designed actions than gymnasticsD.has a relatively high rate of damage to the body4.Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?I: Introduction P: Point Sp: Sub-point (次要点) C: ConclusionA.B.C.D.2、Black Friday is just a week away, an annual tradition in which holiday shoppers rush to the supermarkets and malls. Most shoppers pack stores to buy things at a discount. For some, however, shopping is less of a pastime and more of an addiction. These people have compulsive(强迫性的) shopping disorder, a condition filled with debt and regret.While it's true that many lack money and credit management skills, what these shoppers are often looking for is a “buy high”,an emotional rush to put themselves in a better mood, found San Francisco S tate University researchers in 2013. These types of shoppers often hold materialistic values. When under stress, materialistic shoppers are more likely to shop compulsively.Rather than providing any social or emotional outlet(发泄出口),the extreme stress-induced purchases only increase anxiety and lower well-being, and materialistic shoppers already tend to have lower self-esteem than others to begin with.In fact, it’s exactly at low moments that materialistic shoppers are most likely to shop for expensive items, and they're more likely to make those purchases on credit. This of course can create a vicious cycle, in which a materialistic shoppers with low self-esteem buys a luxury item he or she cannot afford in an effort to improve sense of self. The financial burden can cause stress and strain relationships over the issue of money, further affecting the mood of the shopper and leading to more spending to try to regain a sense of self-worth.Symptoms of shopping addiction include constant thoughts about shopping, buying to improve the mood and inability to change behavior.There are treatment options for those with compulsive shopping disorder, which may include medication. Other recommendations include shopping with a friend, getting rid of credit cards and above all, developing meaningful hobbies.1.What do you learn about Black Friday?A.Many shops have special offers.B.Customers can enjoy leisure time.C.Shoppers can get free products.D.Shoppers spend much money on useless things.2.According to the passage, the extreme stress-induced purchases _____.A.provide an emotional outletB.make people more anxiousC.regain people’s confidenceD.improve management skills3.When are materialistic shoppers most likely to shop for expensive items?A.When they are delighted.B.When they are excited.C.When they are inspired.D.When they are depressed.4.According to the author, which of the following is the most important treatment option?A.Taking chemical medicine.B.Shopping with a friend.C.Developing meaningful hobbies.D.Getting rid of credit cards.3、Is dark chocolate healthy? Yes,dark chocolate has compounds(化合物) that offer health benefits and can be enjoyed without guilt, even on a daily basis. But the amount matters, since too many bites can contribute to extra fat, sugar and calories and get rid of its health benefits.Dark chocolate is rich in cocoa, which contains compounds known as flavanols(黄烷醇). At high levels, cocoa flavanols have been shown to help lower blood pressure and the risk of diabetes. Dark chocolate has the highest amount of cocoa flavanols: milk chocolate has lens, and white chocolate has none.But while cocoa flavanols in dark chocolate make it a healthful treat they give it a biter flavor. Producers may process chocolate to make it more delicious, but doing so can remove some of these beneficial compounds,said Matt Hartings, an American professor. In spite of this,dark chocolate is still a healthier choice than milk chocolate, which tends to have more sugar. Additionally, cocoa powder contains minerals. So you can enjoy a piece of dark chocolate even after a meal. Just keep the following in mind.First, buy chocolate that has at least 60% cocoa. "Generally speaking,the higher the percentage, the more flavanols. These higher-percentage chocolates have the added benefit over the lower percentages and milk and white chocolates because they contain less sugar and less fat,” Hartings said.Second, if possible, choose natural cocoa over Dutch processed cocoa, which is treated with an alkali(碱). This gives chocolate a milder flavor but removes healthful flavanols.And finally, to keep weight in check, limit to 30 grams of dark chocolate daily, or about 150 calories.1.Dark chocolate is healthy mainly because of the existence of _______.A.rich mineralsB.less sugarC.cocoa flavanolsD.fewer calories2.What does the underlined word “treat” in Paragraph 3 mean?A.Something enjoyable.B.A salt-free diet.C.Food paid by others.D.A cure for an illness.3.What can we learn from the text?A.Cocoa flavanols leads to high blood pressure.B.White chocolate is good for health.C.One can feel free to eat dark chocolate.D.Alkali can affect flavanols’ content.4.Wha t’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?A.To show his love for dark chocolate..B.To promote the sales of chocolate.C.To provide facts about dark chocolate.D.To make a distinction among chocolates.4、On a cool morning, Wilson Kasaine heads out along a dirt path in southernKenya. His calmness makes it easy to forget that he’s tracking one of the most dangerous animals in the world. Kasaine is tracking lions—especially one lion called Marti, who is the real-life Lion King of Selenkay Conservancy.Tracking lions on foot may sound like a death wish, but Kasaine has been doing it for most of his life. Born into a traditional Maasai family he quickly grew to understand the beauty and danger of wildlife. Living with big wild animals forces him to develop a good sense of where they have been and where they may be going. During his12-kilometer walks to and from school, he learned how to tell the pawprints (爪印)of a lion from those of other animals.Growing up, Kasaine knew that improving his tracking abilities would help him avoid surprise meetings with dangerous animals. For many Maasai, tracking is mainly a matter of self-protection. But Kasaine is tracking lions to meet them and to protect them. He leads a small group of wide-eyed tourists over the red sandy path, searching for the lion that has left upon it his prints.Each year, thousands of tourists crowdKenya’s national parks to try to have a look at the "big five”; elephants, rhinoceros, leopards, buffaloes and lions. The international d raw of these animals matters a lot because the nation’s economy is tied to the protection of its wildlife. If Kenya’s wildlife disappears, so does its second-largest source of income.Wildlife protection efforts in Kenya meant marking off land exclusively(专门地)for animals. But it also meant that the people who had originally lived in the area were forced to leave their land and into smaller surrounding areas, They are also finding it increasingly hard to keep a traditional Maasai lifestyle. But people are glad that it really makes a difference to wildlife protection.1.How did Kasaine track lions?A.By working together with tourists.B.By running after them all the time.C.By going to school every day.D.By studying their paw prints.2.What can we learn from Paragraph 4?A.Maasai people are born animal lovers.B.Tourism is a big threat toKenya’s wildlife.C.Kenya benefits a lot from its wildlife protection.D.Small animals are not included in their protection policy.3.What does the underlined word "it” in the last paragraph refer to?A.Kenya’s economic development.B.Kenyan people’s traditional Maasai lifestyle.C.Kenya’s second-largest income source.D.People’s leaving their original homes.4.What is the best title for the text?A.Wildlife protection inKenyaB.Meeting a dangerous animalC.Wilson Kasaine’s wise choiceD.Learning to live with lions5、Now many young people are traveling around the world on their own, not because they have no one to travel with, but because they prefer to go alone.Kristina Wegscheider from California first traveled alone when she was at college and believes that it is something everyone should do at least once in their life. " It opens your mind to new things and pushes you out of your comfortable zone," Wegscheider said. She has visited 46 countries covering all seven continents.In foreign countries, with no one to help you read a map, look after you when you get ill, or lend you money if your wallet is stolen, it is challenging. This is what drives young people to travel alone. It is seen as character building and a chance to prove that they can make it on their own.Chris Richardson decided to leave his sales job in Australia to go traveling last year. He set up a website, The Aussie Nomad, to document his adventures. He said he wished he had traveled alone earlier. "The people you meet,the places you visit,or the things you do, everything is up to you and it forces you to grow as a person, said the 30-year-old man. Richardson describes traveling alone as ua sho t in the arm”, which makes you a more confident person that is ready to deal with anything. He said, “ The feeling of having conquered something on my own is a major part of what drives me each day when I'm dealing with a difficult task. I walk around withmy head up because I know that nothing is impossible if I try. ”The great 19th century explorer John Muir once said,Only by going alone in silence can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness."1.Which of the following will Kristina Wegscheider agree with?A.Traveling alone is a necessary experience for everyone.B.It is more meaningful to travel in foreign countries.C.It is comfortable to travel around without a friend.D.Traveling abroad helps people to find new things.2.Traveling alone is challenging because_______________.A.you have to make things on your ownB.it is hard for you to prove yourself to othersC.you can only depend on yourself whatever happensD.it will finally build your character3.What can we infer about Chris Richardson?A.He started traveling alone at an early age.B.He was once shot in the arm.C.He used to work as a salesman.D.His website inspires others a lot.4.What is the best title for the passage?A.Travel AbroadB.Travel UnaccompaniedC.Travel LightD.Travel Wide and Far6、Dream in HeartOn the first day of school our professor introduced a new classmate—a wrinkled little old lady—to us. Her name was Rose, and she was eighty-seven years old.After class Rose and I walked to the Student Union Building and shared a chocolate milk-shake. She told me she always dreamed of having a college education and now she was getting one. We became instant friends. Every day for the following months, we would leave class together and talk nonstop. I was always attracted, listening to this “ time machine” as she shared her wisdom and experience with me.Rose became famous and easily made friends wherever she went. She tended to be highly motivated,responsible, and deeply involved in class participation. In spare time she had someone hang out or go to bars with. She even participated in some form of athletic activity. She said that extra-curricular activities can form a vital part of her experience, creating unique chances for friendship and learning.At the end of the term we invited Rose to speak at our football meal. A little embarrassed, she leaned into the microphone and simply said, “ I’ m sorry I’ m so nervous.” As we laughed, she cleared her throat and began, “ Wedo not stop playing because we are old; we grow old because we stop playing. There is a huge difference between growing older and growing up. If you’ re nineteen years old and lie in bed for one full year, you will turn twenty. If I’ m eighty-seven years old and stay in bed for a year, I will turn eighty-e ight. Anybody can grow older. It’ snon-optional but that doesn’ t take any talent or ability. The idea is to grow up by always finding the chance in change. In this way the elderly don’ t have regrets for what they did, but rather for things they did not do.” Rose concluded her speech by courageously singing “ The Rose” . She challenged us to study the words of the song and lived them out in daily lives.At the year’ s end Rose finished the college degree she had begun all those years ago. One week aft er graduation Rose died peacefully in her sleep. Over two thousand college students attended her funeral in honor of the wonderful woman who taught by example that it’ s never too late to be all you can possibly be.1.Why does the author compare Rose to “ time machine” in Paragraph 2?A.To stress her old age and knowledge of life.B.To describe the close friendship between them.C.To show that she always enjoyed her active life.D.To explain why she took on a challenge in college.2.Rose was invited to speak at the football meal most probably because ______.A.she was a great football fanB.she was the smartest studentC.she tried hard to achieve her dreamD.she became more educated than the others3.We can learn that Rose agreed with the idea that ______.A.growing older means growing upB.it takes talent and ability to grow upC.receiving high education helps to be courageousD.one grows older at the same time when he grows up4.The passage is intended to ______.A.provide an example for the elderlyB.discuss how to grow up quicklyC.tell the importance of attending collegeD.inspire the readers to live up to lives7、Jane Austen, a famous English writer, was born at Steventon, Hampshire, on December 16, 1775, and died on July 18, 1817. She began writing early in life, although the prejudices of her times forced her to have her books published anonymously ( 匿名).But Jane Austen is perhaps the best known and best loved of Bath's many famous local people and visitors. She paid two long visits here during the last five years of the eighteenth century and from 1801 to 1806, Bath was her home. Her deep knowledge of the city is fully seen in two of her novels, Northanger Abbey and Persuasion, which are largely set in Bath. The city is still very much as Jane Austen knew it, keeping in its streets and public buildings the well-ordered world that she described so well in her novels. Now the pleasure of learning Jane Austen's Bath can be enhanced (增强)by visiting the Jane Austen Centre in Gay Street. Here, in a Georgian town house in the heart of the city, you can find out more about Bath in Jane Austen's time and the importance of Bath in her life and work.The Centre has been set up with the help and guidance of members of the Jane Austen Society. After your visit to the Centre, you can look round the attractive shop, which offers a huge collection of Jane Austen related books, cards and many specially designed gifts. Jane Austen quizzes are offered to keep the children busy.You can also have walking tours of Jane Austen's Bath, which is a great way to find out more about Jane Austen and discover the wonderful Georgian city of Bath. The tour lasts about one and a half hours. The experienced guides will take you to the places where Jane lived, walked and shopped.1.Jane Austen paid two long visits to Bath________.A.in her early twentiesB.in her early teensC.in her late twentiesD.in her late teens2.What can we learn about Bath from the passage?A.Bath has greatly changed since Jane Austen's death.B.The city has changed as much as Jane Austen knew it.C.Bath remains almost the same as in Jane Austen's time.D.No changes have taken place in Bath since Jane Austen's time.3.The author writes this passage in order to________.A.attract readers to visit the city of BathB.ask readers to buy Austen's booksC.tell readers about Jane Austen's experienceD.give a brief introduction to the Jane Austen Society4.It takes you about one and a half hours________.A.to get to the Jane Austen Centre in Gay StreetB.to buy Jane Austen related books, cards and giftsC.to find a guide to take you to the CentreD.to look around the city of Bath on foot8、Greg Woodburn, a student at the University of Southern California, spends a lot of time cleaning sneakers he collected. But soon the shoes will be sent to poor children in the United States and 20 other countries,thanks to Woodburn's Share Our Soles (S.O.S.) charity.A high school track star in the town of Ventura, California,Woodburn was treated in hospital for months with knee and hip injuries.“I started thinking about the health benefits, the friendship and the confidence I got from running,” he says,“And I realized there are children who don’t even have shoes."Woodburn gathered up his old sneakers, then asked his friends to donate. His goal was to have 100 pairs by Christmas that year.When he collected more than 500 pairs, he decided to turn the shoe drive into a year-round endeavor.Back then, the sneakers came from donation boxes at the YMCA and the local sporting goods store and from door-to-door pickups. Woodburn has now set up collection boxes at two high schools, a city gym and a recreation centre. He has started accepting adult sizes and sandals. So far, S. O. S has collected and donated more than 3,000 pairs.Woodburn has cleaned all the shoes. After sorting the shoes by size, Woodburn selects the good shoes for the washing machine and the worn-out ones for recycling.To ship the footwear,Woodburn teamed with Sports Gift, a nonprofit organization that provides soccer and baseball equipment to children around the world. Keven Baxter, founder and president, says, “We’d send kids balls and shoes. I've heard that for many of these kids,these old sneakers are the only shoes they had. They wear them to school and to do sports.So Greg's running shoes were a nice addition for us.”For many recipients, the shoes represent opportunity. Two young hoys in Southern California attended school on alternate days because they shared a pair of shoes. They were too big for one boy and too small for the other.Thanks to S. O. S., each brother received his own pair of shoes. The boys now attend school daily and enjoy their learning. When they graduate, they say, they will help a stranger, just as Woodburn helped them.1.What caused Greg Woodburn to donate old shoes for poor children?A.The benefits from playing sports.B.News about some poor children.C.His memory of school life.D.The medical treatment he received.2.When collecting more sneakers than expected, Woodburn decided to _________.A.include adult sizes and sandalsB.set up branches in different citiesC.collect shoes throughout the yearD.expand his endeavor in the whole city3.How did Woodburn manage to deliver the shoes collected?A.By sending them by mail.B.By working with Sports Gift.C.By advertising for those in need.D.By offering them from door to door.4.What can we learn from Keven Baxter’s remarks?A.Sports Gift is popular around the world.B.Many children need Greg’s old sneakers.C.Greg's running shoes are the best gifts for children.D.International organizations should provide more help.答案以及解析1答案及解析：答案：1.A; 2.B; 3.D; 4.C解析：1.细节理解题。

A 2018 statistic shows that women nowadays hold just 5.8 percent of CEOs positions at S&P 500 companies, according to Catalyst.While i t’s not a huge shock that women are somewhat underrepresented in leadership positions, what is surprising though, is the fact that females may actually be better suited to lead in almost every area, at least according to new findings from the BI Norwegian Business School.In their research, Professor Martinsen and Professor Lars Glas surveyed (调查) 2,900 managers with a special focus on personality types. The results were clear: Women scored higher than men in four of the five major leadership-centric categories.While some people believe that men inherently make better leaders — probably because they picture a leader with a commanding voice, which is more typical of men than women — this piece of research suggests that women are better at methodical management and goal-setting, openness, sociability and supportiveness, as well as ability to communicate clearly.There was one area in which men scored higher than women, though, and that was on emotional stability and ability to face job-related pressure and stress. The results suggest that women are more sensitive to the effects of high-pressure or highly emotional situations.Obviously, it’s important to consider individual(个人的) differences. Anyone, regardless of gender, may be an inspiring leader and a competen t boss. So next time you’re hiring for a management position, you just might want to give the resumes(简历) from female candidates a harder look.1.What makes us shocked much at leadership positions?A.Women are worse than men.B.Men take almost all high positions.C.There is a huge gap between genders.D.Women might behave better in every field.2.Which of the following can best replace the underlined word ‘‘inherently” in paragraph 4?A.properlyB.potentiallyC.naturallyD.normally3.Which of the following may be the best title of this text?A.How We Can Figure Out The Boss.B.Why Women Are Better Than MenC.Why Women Make Better BossesD.How We Can Tell Gender Difference4.Who might have special interest in this article?A.Job hunters.B.Employers.C.Employees.D.University students.3、On a February afternoon in a classroom, Taylor came face to face with a cow-but it was all in her head.A virtual(虚拟的)reality headset had transported her and her classmates to a farm 250 miles away and for them, the technology means field trips are no longer limited by a bus ride.On any given day, students nationwide walk through fields, dive into deep sea, and observe medical operations by using such headset. It's another way to attract the iPhone generation of students and improve their understanding and their grades.Richard Lamb is a scientist working at Buffalo Science Lab. In the lab, the physical effects of virtual reality become clear as participants experience motion (运动) sickness without m oving. “Some of the research we’re doing has shown that what you experience in virtual reality has very similar responses that you would get if you were doing the actual activity, ” Lamb said.It's unknown how many classrooms have or will adopt the technology, but experts say it's still relatively rare. While individual headsets that require a user’s phone can cost as little as $20 or $30, systems and software for classes will cost thousands of dollars. Early complaints about a lack of good software are fading as more companies enter the market, but the rules for use haven't necessarily caught up with the technology.In New York, virtual lab experiments don’t count toward the state's hands-on lab time requirements. Even so, the sciences are an area w here virtual reality holds particular promise for classrooms. “The big gest impediment is going to be the quality of that experience, and that means how closely it mimics (模仿) the physical world, ” said David Evans, a scientist. “ Doing dangerous things and running into a lot more cases represent a huge learning opportunity.”Lamb agree d. “Too often in schools, when we do things in labs, you mix things together and you get this outcome. And if you don't get that outcome, you did something wrong, but we d on't have enough resources for you to redo it,” he said. “In virtual reality, all I do is on the computer. I don’t have to actually use chemicals.”1.What does a virtual reality headset really help the students do?A.Take some exercise.B.Perform an operation.C.Go for a bus ride.D.Have different experiences.2.The technology is rarely used in classrooms mainly because ________.A.students show little interest in itB.it's too expensive for users to afford itC.supporting software is inaccessible yetD.it's inconvenient to be operated by students3.Which word can replace the underlined wor d “impediment” in Paragraph 5?A.Opportunity.B.Difficulty.C.Surprise.D.Disappointment.4.Which of the following statements do both Lamb and Evans agree with?A.This technology can save students a lot of time.B.This technology is safe when used in experiments.C.This technology can enrich students' learning experiences.D.This technology can produce a better result in real life.4、No student of a foreign language needs to be told that grammar is complex. By changing the order of the words and by adding a range of auxiliary verbs (助动词) and suffixes (后缀), we can turn a statement into a question, state whether an action has taken place or is soon to take place, and perform many other word tricks to convey different meanings. However, the question which many language experts can’t understand and explain is—who created grammar?Some recent languages evolved due to the Atlantic slave trade. Since the slaves didn’t know each other’s languages, they developed a make-shift language called a pidgin. Pidgins are strings of words copied from the language of the landowners. They have little in the way of grammar, and speakers need to use too many words to make their meaning understood. Interestingly, however, all it takes for a pidgin to become a complex language is for a group of children to be exposed to it at the time when they learn their mother tongue. Slave children didn’t simply copy the strings of words used by their elders. They adapted their words to create an expressive language. In this way complex grammar systems which come from pidgins were invented.Further evidence can be seen in studying sign languages for the deaf. Sign languages are not simply a group of gestures; they use the same grammatical machinery that is found in spoken languages. The creation of one such language was documented quite recently in Nicaragua. Previously, although deaf children were taught speech and lip reading in the classrooms, in the playgrounds they began to invent their own sign system, using the gestures they used at home. It was basically a pidgin and there was no consistent grammar. However, a new system was born when children who joined the school later developed a quite different sign language. It was based on the signs of the older children, but it was shorter and easier to understand, and it had a large range of special use of grammar to clarify the meaning. What’s more, they all used the signs in the same way. So the original pidgin was greatly improved.Most experts believe that many of the languages were pidgins at first. They were initially used in different groups of people without standardization and gradually evolved into a widely accepted system. The English past tense—“ed” ending—may have evolved from the verb “do”. “It ended” may once have been “It end-did”. It seems that children havegrammatical machinery in their brains. Their minds can serve to create logical and complex structures, even when there is no grammar present for them to copy.1.What can be inferred about the slaves’ pidgin language?A.It was difficult to understand.B.It came from different languages.C.It was created by the landowners.D.It contained highly complex grammar.2.What is the characteristic of the new Nicaraguan sign language?A.No consistent signs were used for communication.B.Most of the gestures were made for everyday activities.C.The hand movements were smoother and more attractive.D.The meaning was clearer than the previous sign language.3.Which idea does the author present in the last paragraph?A.English grammar of past tense system is inaccurate.B.Children say English past tense differently from adults.C.The thought that English was once a pidgin is acceptable.D.Experts have proven that English was created by children.4.What is the best title for the passage?A.The Creators of GrammarB.The History of LanguagesC.Why Pidgins Came into BeingD.How Grammar Systems Are Used5、Some Ways to Increase Your Reading SpeedDo you have a lot of reading to do before class tomorrow? Here are some ways to help increase your reading speed.1. Stop the Inner SpeechOne’s inner monologue is an extremely common trait among readers.①__________ It is the biggest obstacle that gets in the way of you being able to increase your reading speed.2.

While there are countless shelters and rescue centers that exist, some potential pet owners look to pet shops to find their furry friends. All too often, however, these animals come from puppy and kitten mills (繁殖场) that treat the creatures in cruel ways. San Francisco, however, is doing their part to stop this abuse with pet store adoption. Officials recently voted to ban the sale ofnon-rescue dogs and cats in local shops.The effect is two-fold. One, it will stop the popularity of the large-scale mills, which are famous for the miserable conditions cats and does are kept in. Two, it will help facilitate the adoption of thousands of animals that are waiting for their forever homes in San Francisco shelters. District 4 Supervisor Katy Tang, who serves on the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, supported law-making on the ban. “Dogs and cats sold in pet stores often come from inhumane puppy and kitten mills that treat animals with no regard for their health or well-being”, she wrote on Facebook. In her message, she also called on the U. S. Agriculture Department to reinstate information on its website that documents these types of animal cruelty cases—it was removed earlier this month.San Francisco’s law-making is a victory for those concerned about animal rights, and they aren’t the first city to pass this type of measure. Los Angeles, San Diego, Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston, and Austin also have similar laws in place, with hopefully more places to follow suit.1.What happened to some dogs and cats before they got in the pet stores?A.They were treated cruelly.B.They were abandoned in streets.C.They received warm welcome.D.They were raised in shelters and rescue centers.2.Which of the following may Katy Tang agree with most?A.People should adopt the dogs and cats.B.Animals are too cruel to humans being.ernment can choose to kill all the dogs and cats.D.It is not right to ban the sale of non-rescue dogs and cats in local shops.3.What does the underlined word “reinstate” in Paragraph 2 mean?A.updateB.replaceC.post againD.download4.What does the last paragraph mainly focus on?A.No Chinese city joins this type of movement.B.San Francisco is the last city to ban pet stores.C.Americans care about animals more than humans.D.More and more cities are involved in animal rights.3、There are thousands of products of all colors and shapes in a supermarket, making you believe that they are worth a try. How? Packaging is the silent but persuading salesman .There on the shelves, each bottle, can, box, and jar has been carefully designed and measured to speak to the inner self of the consumer, so that is buying not only a product but also his belief in life. Scientists have studied consumer behavior recently and found that the look of the package has a great effect on the “quality” of the product and on how well it sells, because “Consumers generally cannot tell between a product and its package. Many products are packages and many packages are products,” as Louis Cheskin, the first social scientist studying consumers’ feeling for packaging, noticed.Colors are one of the best tools in packaging. Studies of eye movement have shown that colors draw human attention quickly. Take V8 for example. For many years, the bright red color of tomatoes and carrots on the thin bottle makes you feel that it is very good for your body. And the word “green” today can keep food prices going up.我Shapes are another attraction. Circles often suggest happiness and peacefulness, because these shapes are pleasing to both the eye and the heart. That’s why the round yellow M signs of McDonald’s are inviting to both young and old. This new consumer response (反应) to the colors and shapes of packages reminds producers and sellers that people buy to satisfy both body and soul.1.According to the passage, ________ seems to be able to persuade a consumer to buy the product.A.the pleasing color of the packageB.the special taste of the productC.the strange shape of the packageD.the belief in the product2.If a package or a product is round in shape, it can ________.A.bring excitement to the consumersB.attract the consumers’ attentionC.catch the eye movement of the consumersD.produce a happy and peaceful feeling3.“And the word ‘green’ today can keep food prices going up.” This sentence suggests that consumers today are ________.A.starting to notice the importance of new foodB.enjoying the beauty of nature more than beforeC.beginning to like green vegetablesD.paying more attention to their health4.It can be inferred from the passage that V8 is a kind of ________.A.vegetable dishB.healthy juiceC.iced drinkD.red vegetable4、There is a very instructive incident involving the life of Alexander the Great, King of Greek. Alexander, after conquering many kingdoms, was returning home. On the way, he fell ill and it took him to his death bed. With death staring him in his face, Alexander realized his conquests, his great army, his sharp sword and all his wealth were of no consequence. So, he lay helplessly waiting to breathe his last. He called his generals and said, “I will depart from this world soon, and I have three wishes. Please carry them o ut without fail.”“My first desire is that,” said Alexander, “my physicians alone must carry my coffin.” After a pause, he continued, “Secondly, I desire that when my coffin is being carried to the grave, the path leading to the graveyard be strewn(撒满) with gold, silver and precious stones which I have collected.” The King continued, “My third and last wish is that both my hands should be kept hanging out of my coffin.” Alexander's favorite general kissed his hand and pressed them to his heart. “Oh King, we assure you that your wishes will all be fulfilled. But tell us why do you make such strange wishes?”Alexander took a deep breath and said, “I would like the world to know of the three lessons I have just learnt. I want my physicians to carry my coffin because people should realize that nodoctor can really cure any bodies. They are powerless and cannot save a person from the clutches of death. So let people not take life for granted.“The second wish of strewing gold, silver and other riches o n the way to the graveyard is to tell people that not even a bit of gold will come with me. I spent all my life earning riches but cannot take anything with me. Let people realize that it is just a waste of time to chase wealth.“And about my third wis h of having my hands hanging out of the coffin, I wish people to know that I came emptyhanded into this world and empty-handed out of this world.” With these words, the King closed his eyes. Soon he let death conquer him and breathed his last.1.The first paragraph suggests that Alexander ________.A.was conquering many kingdomsB.realized that what he got in his life was nothing to him at allC.wanted to leave as he came empty-handedD.regarded his conquests, his great army, his sharp sword and all his wealth as the most important things2.The underlined word “clutches” in Paragraph 3 means “________”.A.sentenceB.attentionC.controlD.shadow3.The author intends to________.A.tell us the story of AlexanderB.introduce readers to the instructive lessons of AlexanderC.stress the power of Alexander the GreatD.persuade people to realize what Alexander said4.What would be the best title for the passage?5、Why you shouldn’t punish your kids for lyingGetting your children to stop lying is challenging. There are many influences (TV, movies, video games and some great books) in which lies are common. Children see parents lie to others, if only to be polite. Most parents add to that with tales about the lives and activities of Santa Clausor the Tooth Fairy, or to lessen fears. ①__________ The most common reactions to children who lie are explaining why it is wrong and punishment. ②__________ Here are three better tools supported by research to use instead.PRAISE: You could ask your child to say something that happened at school that is true. When your child obeys, praise him enthusiastically. Be specific: ③__________ and give your child a hug or a high five. Aim for one or two interactions (互动) like this a day. If you happen to “catch” your child in a lie, say something like, “T hat is not true and could get you in trouble outside of the home.”MODEL: Explicitly tell the truth. This could be about something that happened when you were a child or something that happened during the day. It need not be dramatic. Another option is to play a game at dinner. Each person tells one thing that was true that day. Again, give a little praise to the child who normally lies if she plays along.DECREASE PUNISHMENT AND MORALIZING: They are unlikely to change behavior or develop the conduct you want. ④__________ Rather, use very mild punishment (light scolding, short loss of privilege, a brieftime-out). More severe punishments (shouting, taking away something for a week, hitting) are not more effective in actually changing the frequency of lying.⑤__________ Usually they can be dropped by then. It is unlikely that lying will be completely removed, but with the right encouragement, k can be dramatically lessened.A. It is not what that is, but about practice.B. As ways of changing behavior, these are ineffective.C. That does not mean ignoring, lying or letting it go.D. “That was great! You told me what happened just like I asked. Wow!”E. Try these procedures for two to three weeks and see where you are.F. “You did a good job, but what you said was not what I’d like to know!”G. Parents do this out of love, but for some children, lying can become a problem.6、 A teen soccer star diagnosed with HIV was cruelly told by her coach she'd score more goals than her teammates because no one would want to touch her.Paige Rawl,now 18,has broken a six-year 1 to talk about how her diagnosis —at age 12—saw her 2 by school friends and abused in the street.“I went from having tons of 3 to hardly having any," the Indianapolis teen told the Indianapolis Star. "I had a 4 left on my lockers saying ‘no AIDS at this school’. ”Born with HIV after 5 it from her mom, Rawl tested positive when she was just 12.

ASports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature.However,whether you are on the mountains,in the waves,or on the grassland,you should be aware that your sport of choice might have great influence on the environment.Some sports are resource-hungry.Golf,as you may know,eats up not only large areas of countryside,but also tons of water.Besides,all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses(球场)in good condition.This causes major environmental effects.For example,in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain,golf is often held responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas.There are many environment-friendly sports.Power walking is one of them that you could take up today.You don′t need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes；and you don′t have to worry about resources and your purse.Simple and free,power walking can also keep youfit.If you walk regularly,it will be good for your heart and bones.Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious,sleep well and have better weight control.Whatever sport you take up,you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials.But the final goal should be“green gyms”.They RYe better replacements for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gyms play sports outdoors,in the countryside or other open spaces.There is no special requirement for you to start your membership.And best of all,it′s free.21.Which of the following is the author most probably in favor of?A.Cycling around a lake.B.Motor racing in the desert.C.Playing basketball in a gym.D.Swimming in a sports center.22.What do we know about golf from the passage?A.It produces chemicals and wastes.B.It is popular in Portugal and Spain.C.It causes water shortages around the world.D.It needs water and electricity to keep its courses green.23.The author uses power walking as an example mainly because _______.A.it is an outdoor sportB.it improves our healthC.it uses fewer resourcesD.it is recommended by experts24.The author writes the passage to _______.A.show us the function of major sportsB.encourage us to go in for green sportsC.discuss the major influence of popular sportsD.introduce different types of environment-friendly sports【答案】21-24 ADCBBFood,football and fashion—Milan has it a11.The city is perhaps most famous for its annual Milan Fashion Week and its world-class soccer teams AC Milan and Inter Milan.And May will see it host the six-month Milan Expo,the theme of which is food and nutrition.Milan may not the first place tourists think of when they think of Italy.Rome is the mostfamous city in Italian history,Venice draws visitors who want to travel along its canals and Florence is popular with art lovers.Yet Milan can often be left off tourists′lists.But although some see Milan as the“ugly sister”of these cities,according to Lonely Planet,in 2015 the city is“suddenly back in fashion in a big way”.The Milan Expo will look at the future of food,trying to answer the question of how Ea rth′s fast-growing population can be fed in the future.According to Lonely Planet website.“144 countries will set up shop northwest of central Milan,forming a mini city-within-a-city”.Milan′s famous opera house,La Scala,normally closed in the summer,w ill also host daily performances during the expo,reported Fox News.Not interested in opera?Don′t worry.Visitors who prefer sports may want to visit the San Siro stadium,home of the soccer teams AC Milan and Inter Milan.Tile stadium is one of the most famous in Europe and has seen many important games over the years,both in Serie A and the European Champions League.So even if all of its fashion and beautiful people can make Milan seem“soulless”,as Lonely Planet said.it still has“a serious sense of history and place”.Many people will be discovering it this year,and eating great food from all over the world to help solve world problems.Will you?25.Which of the following statements is True about Milan?A.It is the largest city in Italy and has the longest history.B.It is hosting the world′s largest Fashion Week in 2015.C.Football,fashion and ancient canals are three features of the city.D.The city′s La Scala opera house will offer additional performances in 2015.26.What′s the attitudes of the e ditors from Lonely Planet towards the city of Milan?A.uninterested.B.modest.C.favorable.D.dissatisfied.27.In the 2015 Milan Expo,you can ___________.A.enjoy food from all over the worldB.Watch great football gamesC.Travel along the canalsD.Enjoy great art works28.The author′s purpose in writing this article is to ____________.A.give an introduction to Milan as a tourist destinationrm readers of the theme of the 2015 Milan ExpoC.give an objective review of the food culture in MilanD.explain why Milan will be holding the world Expo in 2015【答案】25-28 DCAACWhen I set out to drop my dad of fat the airport,it was dark and dreary(沉闷的).It started to rain on the way.When I left the airport,the visibility wasn′t clear because of the drops of rain.It was before 6 am.Even though the road conditions were poor,I drove at my normal speed.I was angry with the more cautious drivers ahead of me that were delaying my drive.The exit ramp(坡道)to the highway was a tight spiral(急盘旋).It is a dangerous spot in good weather and totally scary when the weather is miserable or it is dark.But I didn′t want to slow down and arrive home any later than necessary.I drove down the ramp too fast.The road was wet and my car slid,landing face down on the passenger side.I d idn′t like to drive by myself at the time and had debated taking my husband and son with me on the trip.Thankfully,I was alone in the car.My accident was slight.In fact, I was lucky enough not to have a single scratch.I shuddered to think the injuries my son would have suffered had he been in the backseat of that car with no seatbelt when it rolled.After the ear rolled three times,I found my mobile phone was lost in a pile of small things that were all lying in the bottom of the car.A lady was kind enough to let me borrow her mobile phone,but with-out the numbers preprogrammed who could I call? I was lucky enough to remember my father′s mobile phone number,and fortunate that he hadn′t yet got on his plane.You never know when an accident will happen.As a driver,I will keep safety in mind by obeying all traffic laws and have safe-driving habits,especially in bad weather.Insist your children always wear their seatbehs.Life is a journey and everyone should value it and enjoy the ride.29.Why was the author angry with those drivers?A.She thought they drove too slowly.B.They made much noise on the ramp.C.They didn′t pay attention to the safety.D.They tried to stop her car on the ramp.30.What does the underlined word“shuddered” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A.Ensured the safety.B.Remembered clearly.C.Trembled because of fear.D.Took control of the bad situation.31.What is the main reason that resulted in the accident?A.The visibility was not clear.B.The author drove rather fast.C.It started to rain heavily then.D.It was an unsafe spot for driving.32.We can learn from this passage that the author _____________.A.had just a single scratchB.called her father for helpC.felt sorry because her son was injuredD.found her mobile phone with the help of a lady【答案】29-32 ACBBDIn order to help customers to find what they want quickly,it′s important to keep the thou- sands of titles in the Main Street Movies store organized properly.This section of the Employee Handbook will tell you how to organize videos.AC Action QR Drama HO HorrowCH Children FA Family MU MusicCO Comedy FL Foreign Language SC SCIENCE FictionEach Main Street Movies store has three main sections：1.New Releases Wall.2.Film library.3.Video Games.New Releases Wall.A1most 70 percent of movie rentals are new releases,and that is the first place where most customers go when they enter the store.The center section of shelves on this wall holds Hottest Hits.When new titles come into the store,place them on this wall in alphabetical order.The shelves beside Hottest Hits are called Recent Releases.The New Releases Wall,including the Hottest Hits and Recent Releases shelves,holds about 350 titles.Film Library.The thousands of tides in the Film Library are organized into categories.

Burns, cuts and other damage to the outer part of the skin will be replaced in time by new one, which bears a reproduction of the original pattern. 37Some criminals make use of this fact to remove their own finger-prints but this is a dangerous and rare step to take.Finger-prints can be made very easily with printer′s ink. They can be recorded easily. 38 Because of the simplicity and economy of this system, finger-prints have often been used as amethod of solving criminal case. A suspected man may deny a charge but this may be in vain.39 When a suspect leaves finger-prints behind at the scene of a crime, they are difficult to detect(察觉) with the naked eye. 40 Some of the marks found are incomplete but identification is possible if a print of a quarter of an inch square can be obtained.A.Special techniques are used to “develop” them.B.A fingerprint is an impression of the friction ridges of all part of the finger.C.It is only when the inner skin is injured that the arrangement will be destroyed.D.With special methods, identification can be achieved successfully within a short time.E. A latent(潜在的) print is the chance reproduction of the friction ridges deposited on the surface of an item.F. His finger-prints can prove who he is even if his appearance has been changed by age or accident.G. Every human being has a unique arrangement of the skin on his fingers and this arrangement is unchangeable.【答案】36-40 GCDFA第三部分英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节完形填空（共20小题；每题1.5分，共30分）I met Chandra Rekha Shrestha, a visually damaged girl, on the way to Shanti Nagar.

2019届高考英语二轮复习考点解析卷：(七)含答案解析
2019届高考英语二轮考点解析卷（七）1、 Humans make mistakes.Even surgeons with years of experience are not infallible.But what if these doctors could pool their knowledge and experience together and create a surgical standard of care,to be carried out by machines?That's the idea behind surgical robots,which may soon perform most surgeries,from sewing up tiny wounds to performing heart procedures.Many of these operations are,in fact,already completed with the assistance of robots.But a recent test suggests that robots in the operating room may soon go a step further,performing on soft tissue completely on their own,from start to finish.The Smart Tissue Autonomous Robot(STAR),successfully completed surgeries on pigs."We're the first group to develop autonomous robotic surgery with soft-tissue surgery,and when compared to standard operation,it's better,"says Peter Kim,professor of surgery."The idea is not to replace surgeons;it will make the surgeons better and make the procedures safer."A recent Mayo Clinic study found that major surgical errors-including operating on the wrong site or side of the body,or even leaving tools or objects inside the patient-occur every one out of 22,000 procedures.That's rare,but robots like STAR would aim to lower the number even further.In the da Vinci surgical system,surgeons place their arms inside instruments and use their hands to control the movement of robotic tools on the operating table from afar.The robot's every major move is controlled by surgeons,and thus its results may vary based on the surgeon's training or experience.STAR,on the other hand,is entirely autonomous.It's not only able to work on its own and perform surgeries with a more flexible "hand",but it's able to react to the unexpected incidents.Cutting into hard tissue like bones is one thing,but operating on moving soft tissue is far more complex.STAR reacts to a changing environment,similar to how self-driving cars are programmed to not only drive on the highway,but also react to another driver making a mistake and getting in your way.1.The underlined word "infallible" in Paragraph 1probably means ______.A.quite smartB.really creativeC.rather responsibleD.always right2.We can learn from the passage that STAR ______.A.can perform the operation on its ownB.has been widely used in the operating roomC.can make surgeries much fasterD.will take the place of surgeons3.In the da Vinci surgical system, ______.A.robots are trained from afarB.robots always make mistakesC.surgery results depend on surgeonsD.surgeons have trouble controlling robots4.In the last paragraph,the author mentions self-driving cars in order to show ______.A.how smart an autonomous robot can beB.how difficult self-driving on the highway isC.how bad getting in another driver's way might beD.how dangerous operating on people is.2、Give it a Go! One-Off VolunteeringOur One-Off programme allows you to take part in volunteering activities with no regular commitment such as dog walking, helping your local community and so on.Transport is provided from campus when activities can’t be reached by public transport or on foot from campus.

Since the 1980s, some have spoken out against coffee as it’s harmful to health, while others have welcomed coffee for its supposed benefits to health.According to a scientific report, mild coffee consumption, three to five cups per day, can be taken as a healthy dietary pattern, along with other healthful behavior. The report also says that coffee consumption helps reduce the risk of heart disease and it protects against Parkinson’s disease.According to Dr. Donald Hensrud of Mayo Clinic, high consumption of coffee has health risks. Dr. Hensrud mentions the dangers of high coffee consumption for people with a certain illness that slows the breakdown of caffeine in the body. Some studies said that drinking two or more cups of coffee daily can actually increase the risk of heart disease in these people.According to conclusions from a recent study led by Dr. Gregory Marcus, a doctor from the University of California, San Francisco, daily moderate consumption of caffeine, less than 4 cups, is not associated with these issues.Until the scientific community reaches a general agreement on the effects of coffee consumption on human health, it will be up to the individual to decide whether the benefits of drinking coffee are greater than the risks.When informed of these possible health benefits and harm of drinking coffee, Harwood, a high school student stated,“Even though there might be some negative effects of drinking coffee, for the most part, coffee drinking sounds good for health. Not to mention I need coffee to stay awake.”1.What is the people’s attitude towards the effects of coffee on health according to Paragraph 1?A.Disapproving.B.Tolerant.C.Doubtful.D.Mixed.2.What does the underlined word “moderate” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A.Personal.B.Slight.C.Reasonable.D.Heavy.3.What can we infer about Harwood?A.He’ll keep on drinking coffee.B.He loves his high school life.C.He often falls asleep in class.D.He has some health problems.4.What would be the best title for the text?A.Why People Love Coffee?B.How Coffee Affects Health?C.The Culture of Coffee DrinkingD.The New Findings of Heart Disease4、 I fondly remember road trips as a child, sitting in the sunny backseat of my mom's car, daydreaming about other worlds and fantastic adventures. As I’ve grown older, my daydreams have become increasingly occupied less with fantasy but more with the reality of my past and future. Nearly everyone daydreams about their future and reflects nostalgically (念旧地) or negatively on moments of the past. These moments can provide inspiration, but if you spend too much time daydreaming in this fashion, you may be reducing your success in the present.If you've ever planned a vacation, you're familiar with the impatient days tapping at your desk, dreaming of the lazy, relaxing days to come. Unfortunately, sometimes you end up comparing the real vacation to your imagined one, and it doesn't live up to the standard. Reflecting nostalgically on the past can also prevent present enjoyment. It is equally fun to reflect on past achievements or fun events, but it's possible to be so consumed with happy memories that you miss opportunities to create more.We've all made mistakes that we’re ashamed of; reflecting on them is an important step in correcting those mistakes and becoming a better person. But dwelling (细想)too long on your past can also be negative. If you dwell too long on a past mistake, you can begin to equate(使等同)yourself with your past and feel farther away from the person you want to be. Train your brain to think quickly about the past and future, and take only the information and inspiration that you need in order to be the best person you can without resting on your glory moments or your mistakes.If your identity is not dependent on the past or future, every experience is new and every day is a blank page for you to write. A fun mental exercise is to always tell yourself that you’re experiencing things for the first time. So take advantage of each moment you’re given.1.What does the author think of daydreaming?A.It's the favorite for many kids.B.It can lead to fantastic adventures.C.It's the major source of inspiration.D.It has both strengths and weaknesses.2.What can we learn from Paragraph 2?A.Past achievements strongly influence us.B.It's important to be patient with our present life.C.Daydreaming may make the present disappointing.D.Reflecting nostalgically on the past brings us no pleasure.3.What should we avoid doing according to Paragraph 3?A.Reflecting on the past.B.Resting on our past experiences.C.Thinking about our past mistakes.D.Feeling ashamed of our past mistakes.4.What's the author's purpose in writing the text?A.To tell about her childhood.B.To tell how to let go the past.C.To suggest we focus on the present.D.To encourage us to learn from mistakes.5、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。
2019届高考英语二轮复习考点解析卷：(二)含答案解析
2019届高考英语二轮考点解析卷（二）The Nazca Lines are a series of large ancient geoglyphs (地画) in the Nazca Desert, in southern Peru. It is ranging from geometric patterns to drawings of different animals and stylized human-like forms. The ancient lines can only be truly taken in from high in the air, leaving generations puzzled as to how these precise works could have been completed long before the documented invention of human flight.The Lines were first spotted when commercial airlines began flying across the Peruvian desert in the 1920s. Who built them and what was their purpose? Are they roads, star pointers,maybe even a gigantic map? If the people who lived here 2,000 years ago had only a simple technology, how did they manage to construct such precise figures? Did they have a plan? These markings are like a vast puzzle.The Nazca Lines are the most outstanding group of geoglyphs in the world. There are also huge geoglyphs in Egypt, Malta, United States (Mississippi and California), Chile, Holivia and in other countries. But the Nazca geoglyphs, because of their numbers, characteristics, dimensions and cultural continuity as they were made and remade throughout a certain history period, form the most impressive archeological (考古学的) group.The Nazca plain is unique for its ability to preserve the markings upon it, due to the combination of the climate (one of the driest on Earth, with only twenty minutes of rainfall per year) and the flat, stony ground which minimizes the effect of the wind at ground level. With no dust or sand to cover the plain and little rain or wind to erode (lines drawn here tend to stay drawn. These factors, combined with the existence of lighter-colored subsoil beneath the desert surface, provide a vast writing pad that is suited to the artist who wants to leave his mark eternal.1.What can we know about the Nazca Lines from the first two paragraphs?A.They were built as a big map.B.They were formed by nature.C.They are ancient lines in caves.D.They are huge markings in a desert.2.How many factors make the Nazca Lines the most impressive?C.Three.D.Four.3.Why are the Nazca Lines well preserved?A.Because of the wind at ground level.B.Because of the existence of soft soil.C.Because of the climate and geography.D.Because of the thick sand on the top.4.What does the underlined word “eternal” probably mean?A.Non-stop.B.Ever-lasting.C.Real-life.D.High-end.2、Camp All-StarOne of a Kind Summer Camps for KidsWelcome to Camp All-Star, your No. 1 summer sports camp for kids!

A 2018 statistic shows that women nowadays hold just 5.8 percent of CEOs positions at S&P 500 companies, according to Catalyst.While it’s not a huge shock that women are somewhat underrepresented in leadership positions, what is surprising though, is the fact that females may actually be better suited to lead in almost every area, at least according to new findings from the BI Norwegian Business School.In their research, Professor Martinsen and Professor Lars Glas surveyed (调查) 2,900 managers with a special focus on personality types. The results were clear: Women scored higher than men in four of the five major leadership-centric categories.While some people believe that men inherently make better leaders — probably because they picture a leader with a commanding voice, which is more typical of men than women — this piece of research suggests that women are better at methodical management and goal-setting, openness, sociability and supportiveness, as well as ability to communicate clearly.There was one area in which men scored higher than women, though, and that was on emotional stability and ability to face job-related pressure and stress. The results suggest that women are more sensitive to the effects of high-pressure or highly emotional situations.Obviously, it’s important to consider individual(个人的) differences. Anyone, regardless of gender, may be an inspiring leader and a competent boss. So next time you’re hiring for a management position, you just might want to give the resumes(简历) from female candidates a harder look.1.What makes us shocked much at leadership positions?A.Women are worse than men.B.Men take almost all high positions.C.There is a huge gap between genders.D.Women might behave better in every field.2.Which of the following can best replace the underlined word ‘‘inherently” in paragraph 4?A.properlyB.potentiallyC.naturallyD.normally3.Which of the following may be the best title of this text?A.How We Can Figure Out The Boss.B.Why Women Are Better Than MenC.Why Women Make Better BossesD.How We Can Tell Gender Difference4.Who might have special interest in this article?A.Job hunters.B.Employers.C.Employees.D.University students.4、 In ancient Egypt, a shopkeeper discovered that he could attract customers to his shop simply by making changes to its environment. Modern businesses have been following his lead, with more tactics(策略).One tactic involves where to display the goods. For example,stores place fruits and vegetables in the first section. They know that customers who buy the healthy food first will feel happy so that they will buy more junk food(垃圾食品)later in their trip. In department stores,the women’s shoe section is generally next to the women’s cosmetics(化妆品)section: while the shop assistant is going back to find the right size shoe, bored customers are likely to wander over and find some cosmetics they might want to try later.Besides, businesses seek to appeal to customers' senses. Stores notice that the smell of baked goods encourages shopping, so they make their own bread each morning and then fan the bread smell into the store throughout the day. Music sells goods, too. Researchers in Britain found that when French music was played, sales of French wines went up.When it comes to the selling of houses, businesses also use highly rewarding tactics. They find that customers make decisions in the first few seconds upon walking in the door, and turn it into a business opportunity. A California builder designed the structure of its houses smartly. When entering the house, the customer would see the Pacific Ocean through the windows, and then the pool through an open stairway leading to the lower level. The instant view of water on both levels helped sell these $10 million houses.1.Why do stores usually display fruits and vegetables in the first section?A.To save customers time.B.To show they are high quality foods.C.To help sell junk food.D.To sell them at discount prices.2.According to Paragraph 3, which of the following encourages customers to buy?A.Opening the store early in the morning.B.Displaying British wines next to French ones.C.Inviting customers to play music.D.Filling the store with the smell of fresh bread.3.What is the California builder’s story intended to prove?A.The house structure is a key factor customers consider.B.The more costly the house is, the better it sells.C.An ocean view is much to the customers' taste.D.A good first impression increases sales.4.What is the main purpose of the passage?A.To explain how businesses turn people into their customers.B.To introduce how businesses have grown from the past.C.To report researches on customer behavior.D.To show dishonest business practices.5、How to Excel in Poetry WritingIf you are serious about your poetry,then you should consider the suggestions presented here.①__________ Many poets have also used these tips to make poetry publishing possible in their life.Write Every Day.

There are thousands of poetry contests conducted every year.Many language learners think their pronunciation is good enough because their teacher doesn't correct them too often or because other students can 1 them.Pronunciation is the area which is 2 the least attention to in language learning. Most teachers 3 just let their students speak and stop them 4 they say something completely wrong. Working on each student's pronunciation in class is just 5 . Also, the students who are 6 at pronunciation may be afraid that it will embarrass their classmates if they help 7 their mistakes.If you believe your pronunciation is good enough to 8 because it is good enough for your teacher and other students, you may be 9 when you actually go to a foreign country. One of my friends wasthe best student inhis 10 class in Poland. When he went to America, he found Americans didn't understand 11 of what he said.

Survivors of disasters are at significant risk for such problems as depression and anxiety.In an upcoming report, George A. Bonanno and colleagues note that disasters result in extreme psychological harm in a minority of individuals — less than 30% of samples experience severe levels of these psychological problems. Just as there are a wide range of problems experienced following disasters, Bonanno and his co-authors observe there are also a number of outcome patterns. Some survivors will exhibit chronic dysfunction (慢性功能障碍) but the majority will go on to recover psychological function within a few months or years.Following disasters, the most common form of immediate psychological intervention (介入) is Critical Incident Stress Debriefing (CISD) (危机事件应激晤谈). However, following a review of studies on the effectiveness of CISD, Bonanno and co-authors conclude, “Multiple studies have shown that CISD is not only ineffective but, as suggested earlier, in some cases can actually be psychologically harmful.”“The data on crisis debriefing suggest that imposing such int erventions on individuals doesn't work,” Lilienfeld says.“If some of the miners want to talk to somebody to express their feelings, then by all means mental health professionals should be there to listen to them and support them. But for miners who would prefer not to talk much about the experience, it's best to leave them alone and respect their own coping mechanisms (应对机制).”According to Bonanno and his co-authors, there are treatments that may be effective in helping survivors recover from disasters. Psychological first aid (PFA) — which, among other things, provides practical help and helps develop a sense of safety and calmness among survivors — is a promising approach. For example, the community-centered intervention — which helps maintain a sense of connectedness and quality of community life — is beneficial to survivors of disasters. 1.Which of the following can replace the underlined word “traumatic” in the first paragraph?A.Amusing.B.Upsetting.C.Impressive.D.Memorable.2.What can be inferred from Lilienfeld's words?A.The choices of interventions should follow the survivors' will.B.The survivors should often ask health professionals for advice.C.It's beneficial for the survivors to communicate with each other.D.The miners should be respected for their hard and dangerous work.3.According to the passage, which of the following methods is generally more effective?A.Help survivors fit in their communities.B.Urge survivors to join in volunteer programs.C.Ask survivors to speak out their experiences.D.Leave survivors alone to improve their emotions.4.What is the passage mainly about?A.The types of psychological problems.B.The harmful effects of mine accidents.C.The new research about the mental activity.D.The psychological help for survivors of disasters.3、Should we allow modern buildings to be built next to older buildings in a historic area of a city? In order to answer this question,we must first examine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area. Not all historical buildings are attractive. However, there may beother reasons—for example, economic (经济的) reasons—why they should be preserved. So, letus assume that historical buildings are both attractive and important to the majority of people. What should we do then if a new building is needed?In my view, new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style. Indeed, there are many examples in my own home town of Tours where modern designs have been placed very successfully next to old buildings. As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not dominate(影响) its surroundings too much,it often improves the attractiveness of the area.It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt(破坏) the area they are in,but the same can be said of some old buildings too. Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas. I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative(保守的) and do not like change.Although we have to respect people's feelings as fellow users of the buildings, I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to move things forward. If we always reproduced what was there before, we would all still be living in caves. Thus, I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different, even though that might be the more risky choice.1.What does the author say about historical buildings in the first paragraph?A.Some of them are not attractive.B.Most of them are too expensive to preserve.C.They are more pleasing than modern buildings.D.They have nothing to do with the historic feel of an area.2.Which of the following is TRUE according to the author?A.We should reproduce the same old buildings.B.Buildings should not dominate their surroundings.C.Some old buildings have spoilt the area they are in.D.No one understands why people speak against new buildings.3.By “move things forward” in the last paragraph , the author probably means“_________”.A.destroy old buildingsB.put things in a different placeC.choose new architectural stylesD.respect people's feelings for historical buildings4.What is the main purpose of the passage?A.To explain why people dislike change.B.To warn that we could end up living in caves.C.To admit how new buildings have ruined their surroundings.D.To argue that modern buildings can be built in historic areas.4、In my very first job with some archaeologists, I wasn’t digging objects out of the ground, instead I was employed as an artist, drawing what they found. However, I was soon more interested in the stories behind the objects than in drawing them and th at’s how my career in archaeology started. I still draw what I find in my work as a specialist on the Silk Road, the old trade route running from Egypt to Mongolia, and I also work on some underwater projects too.In archaeology, my all-time hero is an American called Raphael Pumpelly. I first heard about him when I was a student on a trip to Turkmenistan, a country right in the heart of Asia. To get around the country, I had to learn Russian so that I could speak to the local people. When I got there I thought, “Wow! I’m one of the first Americans here!” Then an old man told me about an American archaeologist, Raphael Pumpelly, who was there doing the same thing over 100 years ago.Archaeology’s in my family. My wife’s in the same profession, and, although our two boys aren’t interested in the future in archaeology themselves, we’ve been on some great digs together and they love what we do because they get to travel with us. Last summer, we took them to Lake Titicaca in South America, in the high areas of the Andes mountain range. My best experience was when I was digging on the Egyptian Red Sea coast. There’s very little rain and it’s so dry that everything is kept as it was. In an old house, where the owner used to store goods from the ships that came in, I pickedup a 700-year-old mat in front of the house and there, under it, after all that time, was the house key with the owner’s name carved on it. It felt like he could be on his way home any minute! And I thought, “Hey, I do just that. This man’s not much different to me!”1.While working in Egypt, what did the writer find so interesting?A.That people from different centuries can be so similar.B.The fact that the doormat was in such good condition.C.The way the people managed to live in such a dry place.D.That there had been so much trade in that area.2.Which entry will the writer probably make in his diary?A.Turkmenistan is interesting. I’m the first American to come here but I’m glad this is my last trip away.B.I have been diving today an d found some objects for an exhibition. I’ve just finished drawing them for my records.C.I wish my children weren’t more interested in archaeology and would not work hard in the open like their parents.D.It’s nearly dark but Raphael’s still busy digging in that old house. He can be very annoying. He thinks he’s the most important person here.3.What is the writer’s main purpose in writing the text?A.To describe the life of an archaeologist he admires.B.To persuade people to take up archaeology as a career.C.To explain what he enjoys about being an archaeologist.D.To show how archaeologists work.5、Two hundred years after Charles Darwin's birth, studies have found new details of his life at the University of Cambridge. Six leather-bound ledgers (皮革账本) discovered in the university show this. He lived in the most expensive rooms provided for a rich student at his time. He had someone to clean his room, make his bed and take care of the fire in his bright rooms. He hired a dishwasher, a clothes washer and a man who cleaned his shoes. A tailor(裁缝),hatter and barber made sure he was well presented. A chimney cleaner and a coalman kept his fire going. Christ’s College’s basic food was meat and beer.Darwin’s bill topped 636 pound s during his three years of study at Cambridge. Later he described this time as the most joyful of his happy life. That large sum (金额)would have been fairly common for a student at Cambridge in the 19th century.In those days Cambridge was full of rich students living a pretty good life and Darwin was just one of them. And thus he had plenty of time for socializing or private study. He would be out shooting, collecting beetles, doing his scientific hobbies or visiting friends. He played cards and drank wine at night, just like students always have.A. Thanks to the richness, he was able to hire servants to help with the daily life.B. The findings were published on the Internet.C. So he paid five and a lialf pence extra each day to have vegetables.D. He enjoyed the kind of comfortable university life that most of today’s students can only dream about.E. He had several people to help him to deal with the daily housework.F. When you look at the ledgers, you can find there were many rich students in Cambridge.G. The bills were paid by his wealthy father, Robert Darwin, a doctor.6、阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。

But for those who like more extreme adventures, Nicaragua offers an even more exciting slide experience. The thought of racing down an active volcano with only a board is enough to get most people hot underthe collar. But for thrill-seeking sports fanatics, boarding down a 2,380-foot-high volcano at the speed of 80 km/h is the coolest sport around.Thousands of travelers are heading to the foothills of Nicaragua’s Cerro Negro to take part in the new sporting craze (狂热). Surfers, dressed in protective jump suits, knee-pads and helmets, receive brief instructions and then try sliding down a short slope(斜坡). After that, it’s time for the real thing. Sitting on their specially-constructed boards, surfers push off and fly straight down a 488-meter-long slope. The black volcanic ash provides a dusty, dirty ride. But boarders usually arrive at the bottom with smiles on their faces.Phillip Southan, owner and manager of Bigfoot Hostel and Green Pathways Tours, said, "We started offering this trip in 2005 and it has become so popular. This is a unique tour as nowhere else in the world can you board down an active volcano.""What we offer is a tour for everyone with absolutely no experience. One of the greatest attractions of the tour is that you get a bit of everything. Since 2005, more than 10,000 people have traveled to Cerro Negro to give it a try.""When you are on the top you will have the opportunity to stand near the crater(火山口) and see a smoking volcano. But the biggest risk is that you will take the chance of getting some scratches if you fall over.""Many years of experience has taken this tour to a level where it is safe but still fun and for some people a little frightening. We are always working on ways to continue improving it for the future."24.Which words can best describe the slide in Cerro Negro?A. Secure but tiring.B. Enjoyable but risky.C. Popular but demanding.D. Worthwhile but painful.25.What does the underlined words "the real thing" refer to?A. Sliding down the volcanic slope.B. Escaping the black volcanic ash.C. Heading to the mountaintop alone.D. Receiving professional slide instructions26.In what way is the slide in Cerro Negro special?A. It is available to everyone.B. It has the longest slope worldwide.C. It is based on an active volcano.D. It offers specially-constructed boards.27.What makes the slide in Cerro Negro relatively safe according to Phillip Southan?A. High-tech safety facilities.B. Knowledge and skills from practice.C. Advanced training guidance on the slide.D. Staff’s fa miliarity with the surroundings.CAmong astronomers, women of color face more harassment(侵扰) than any other group, according to a new study published on Monday.The online survey of 474 astronomers and planetary scientists found that 28% of the women of color who responded reported feeling unsafe in their workplace due to their race, and that about 40% reported feeling unsafe because of their gender(性别). It also showed that 18% of women of color — as well as 12% of white women —said they’d skipped at leas t one class, meeting, fieldwork opportunity, or professional event because they were worried about their safety."This isn’t something anyone can point to and say," Kathryn Clancy, lead author of the paper, told BuzzFeed News. "These are all current issues that women of color are facing right now. They’re feeling unsafe today. They’re skipping professional events today.""The study really reinforces(使更强烈) a lot of what the literature already tells us — that women of color are more likely to experience multiple forms of harassment and feel more strongly the impact of a very unfriendly or aggressive work environment in science," Zuleyka Zevallos, a sociologist at Swinburne University of Technology in Australia, told BuzzFeed News.The study also outlined several approaches to addressing the problem, including creating a set of standards of behavior, diversity and cultural awareness training, and hiring many more women of color.Clancy also stressed that while professional societies could do a lot to foster culture change and make demands on their memberships, universities need to have swifter consequences for discrimination, and make it easier for victims to discuss these issues both formally and informally. "It’s upsetting to me in a lot of ways that so many women of color haven’t been listened to in the last several decades," Clancy said. "We think the science is going to be different than other workplaces — we just have to stop living in that fantasy."28.What makes some women of color miss the fieldwork opportunity?A. Their resistance to culture change.B. The unfriendly work environment.C. Their lack of professional skills.D. Their concern about safety.29.What can be done to reduce harassment women of color face?A. Offering them more job opportunities.B. Introducing relative laws to protect their rights.C. Developing their cultural awareness in the workplace.D. Making people realize the importance of cultural diversity.30.What message is conveyed in the last paragraph?A. People need to treat things with reason.B. Women of color have no advantage in science.C. Universities should treat women of color equally.D. Gender discrimination is very common in society.31.What is the passage mainly about?A. How societies continue to fail women of color.B. Many women of color feel unsafe working in science.C. Diverse data shows people need to focus on women of color.D. Why women of color in science are few and far between.DFor environmental reasons, Britain will ban all new petrol- and diesel-(柴油)powered vehicles from its roads beginning in 23 years, a government report says.The plan, expected Wednesday, aims to start removing petrol and diesel engines in 2040. It follows a similar official statement in France and comes after the British government was ordered by the High Court to develop new plans to reduce NO2in the air. Judges ruled that previous clean-air plans were not enough to meet European Union pollution limits in the coming years.Britain’s government has said the poor air quality has an unnecessary and avoidable negative effect on citizens’ health, and costs up to $3.5 billion in annual lost productivity.Part of the new plan involves an offer of $260 million to local governments to change rules where vehicle emissions(排放物)are over EU standards. Ideas so far include changing road layouts, reprogramming traffic lights and charging a fee for the oldest and most polluting cars on the road.The plan also includes $1.3 billion for government purchase of extreme-low-emission vehicles,nearly $130 million to improve infrastructure for electric vehicle charging stations and $378 million for remodeling existing vehicles.Climate change is also a reason for the plan to get these vehicles off the road. "We can’t carry on with diesel and petrol cars," Environment Secretary Michael Gove said. "It’s important we all prepare for a significant change which deals not just with the problems of health caused by emissions, but the broader problems caused in terms of accelerating climate change."Gove added that local communities are partly responsible for coming up with ways to limit emissions, including possible limitations on commuters(上下班往返的人) and the addition of cleaner mass transportation options. Local leaders are called on to draw up "appropriate plans" to deal with climate challenges related to emissions, he said.32.Why does the British government decide on this ban?A. To focus on its citizens’ health.B. To follow in France’s footsteps.C. To respond to the court’s request.D. To promote solar energy in transport.33.Which measure may the British government take to achieve its plan?A. Limiting the number of traffic lights.B. Changing the way roads are arranged.C. Removing old and high-emission vehicles.D. Investing in companies with electric vehicles.34.What can be inferred from Gove’s words?A. United efforts are needed to fulfill the plan.B. Convenient public transportation is badly needed.C. Vehicle emissions are the key factor in climate change.D. Petrol and diesel cars may hold back economic progress.35.What is the best title for this passage?A. Practical ways to reduce vehicle emissionsB. The EU forces Britain to improve the poor air qualityC. Britain plans to take petrol and diesel engines off roadsD.
