It is important to protect animals including those set free by people.BA Trip to Key WestAs we cross the bridge to Key West, we can see many boats. _____6_____Others belong to people who have sailed their boats here from many different places.In the city, the houses are almost all painted white. A few are pink or light blue. Many houses are very old and very small. Key West is a very old city.___7___Many palm trees(棕榈树)grow here. Colourful flowers grow in front of many of the little houses. You can stay in a room in one of these houses for the night. You can smell the ocean on the soft warm wind that blows across the island.We drive past several streets and then come to Whitehead Street. There is a monument there. The signs says this is the southernmost part of the United States. The sign says “ Americ a Begins Here.” ___8___ It is the second largest ocean.After taking a few photographs of the sign, we turn the car around and follow Whitehead Street to number 1907. ___9___ For a few dollars, you can see the inside of the house. Hemingway had many cats when he lived here. He is gone, but the cats remain. Many are asleep on the beds or chairs. They are used to seeing people walking through the old house.___10___There is a private museum here we want to visit. It is the Mel Fisher Maritime Heritage Society Museum.

It is made of modern material, i.e. steel and concrete.G. This house belonged to the famous American writer Ernest Hemingway.CColor is in everything we touch, taste, smell and feel. It evokes (唤起) emotion without any thought.__11__ We are all familiar with it, but do you know the following facts?Silver will save your life. When buying a new car and finding yourself facing various choices, you can’t think clearly. Your best choice is to go with silver.Silver color1ed cars are least likely to be involved in a car accident.__12__ Another reason is the silver color1’s ability to have a look of cleanliness.__13__ Tough prisoners and crazy patients? It is the color1 commonly used to help calm down those who are out of control. So it surely has a useful place and a purpose, other than decorating a dress or Barbie’s dream house.Yellow makes you hungry. Yellow and orange are not recommended for use in kitchens, as they have a positive influence on your appetite.__14__ I’m not normally one for conspiracy (阴谋) theories —but perhaps there’s something in it for them if we remain ignorant of yellow’s effects.Color is an imaginary friend. Technically, it’s all in our heads: color1 does not exist at all.__15__ So, if you start a heated debate over color1 combinations with someone that you are certain has a low IQ or is just color1blind, remember it’s a pointless argument a nd you should drop it instantly. You’re both wrong.A.Pink comforts the nerves.B.Blue is the most common favorite color1.C.They are most noticeable on the road and in low light.D.Yellowcolor1ed walls seldom leave us wanting more food.E.It can be the focus of our careers, our lifestyle and the fun we have.F.Then where would our restaurant owners be without the clever tricks?G.Color tries to make sense of the huge amount of information from the outer world.DWhether at school, college or work, most of us take some sort of lunch break. __16__.But here lies the dilemma – what to eat? There are a feast of options but because of limited time or money, many of us stick to what we know – usually the humble sandwich.Some of us make our own sandwiches in the morning before heading out, while those in a rush tend to grab-and-go at a snack bar or a cafe or buy a meal deal at a supermarket. A packet of crisps may be an additional staple to our predictable lunch. _17__Sheila Dillon from the BBC Food Programme says more than a third of office workers have eaten the same midday meal for the last nine months._18__With average lunch hours now reduced to 25 minutes, 24 seconds, it's quick and convenient to eat. But it's also boring! Some people have broken the mould by bringing in leftovers from their previous night's dinner, which they then heat up in a microwave but even that isn't very exciting.We are creatures of habit. But philosopher Julian Baggini says "we’re never going to break out of our midday malaise unless we think outside the box." _19__With just a microwave and a kettle, there a number of hot satisfying meals can be made such as soups and jacket potatoes. And then there are the common instant noodles in a pot – although you may question how nutritious they are.If you've got time for more exotic food, then look out for trendy 'Ottolenghi' style food such as fava bean salad wrap. There is also the healthy Japanese style 'bento box' or lunchbox that normally contains a mix of carbohydrate, protein and vegetable. __20__A. What we eat is usually the same every day.B. There are alternatives that will fill you up.C. And of course another healthy Japanese treat is sushi.D. Too many wrong decisions can be a recipe for a nutritional disaster.E. It's a good time to have a rest, catch up with friends and eat some food.F. In the UK, bread has become the mainstay of our lunchtime snack, sometimes eaten at your desk.G. Then it's time for the next dilemma – what to have for dinner?! What do you usually eat for lunch?。

乱世佳人英语影评

乱世佳人英语影评

乱世佳人英语影评As time goes by, the film “Gone with the wind” is forgotten by most teenagers, but it’s still my favorite film.I admire Captain Rett, he is really a gentleman, and really knows what’s true love. So smart, interesting, handsome and strong. Most important is: he really knows how to protect and take care his wife: Scarlet.Different from most other girls, I don’t like Scarlet very much, not because of her selfish and cool, just because I really think she is a poor fool woman, though she is good at negotiating with customers and good at attracting guys, she even doesn’t know who’s her true love, doesn’t know Rett is the one who really fit for her, I think that she doesn’t know herself at all, she is that kind of person who never like literatures, doesn’t have any romantic dreams. That’s why she misunderstands herself loving Ashley but it’s not true.I think another problem lead to their divorce is short of communication. Both of them are good at attracting others, so, for their experience and pride, the y don’t like to show love to their partner, just pretend “I don’t love you”, and hope their partners shows his/her love at first. This kind of game only works for chasing each other and having fun, but when they marry, it will terminates their relationship upgrade.So as time goes by, their love faded, their marriage became a tragedy.[英语影评] 时间旅行者的妻子The Time Traveller's WifeI have always been a big fan of girly movies, namely movies with romance factors. Doesn't matter whether it's a comedy or tragedy or any other type in between, as long as it's romance related, I'm on it. It is no doubt, the movie type that I've viewed the most. So when I watched the movie trailer of the Time Traveller's Wife, I decided then and there that it's gonna be a must-see movie for me. For just in that 3 minute of the trailer, I was already driven to tears.I did some research on the movie when I got home that night from the movies. I found out that this is the movie adaption of a bestseller book of the same name. I've never read or heard of the book. It seems that it's quite popular and is a very touching love story. So it made my anticipation for the movie grew even greater.After coming back to China, my opportunities of watching movies in English in theaters has dropped considerably lower than when I was in Van. Only select movies are played in select theaters, and some are translated which is not the same thing has watching it in English. After a long wait, I found out that the movie is not gonna be played in my city, at least not the same time as when it comes out in North America. A friend told me I can already watch it online so I changed my option with pity, coz I would really like to watch my movie's on big screen in theaters.I watched it on my computer last night. I've always liked Rachel McAdams since when I first saw her in Notebook, the movie. That is undebatably one of the best romantic movies ever made. I still think it's such a pity that Ryan Gosling and she broke up as a couple. They have such great chemistry. She is just a sweetheart that you can't help but fall in love with. I think she did a very good job with this movie as well. She looks and feels convincing from when she was a young blooming girl in her teens to a middle-age female artist and a mom. She has that special chiaround her that you just can not take your eye off. She is leading lady material and can carry a movie well. Choosing her as the leading actress is a safe bet and a smart choice.On the other hand, Eric Bana as the leading man. I've only seen him in the Hulk, An Lee's version. Honestly, I did not really enjoy the movie or his acting in it, which left me an impression of him as a muscle man of not much acting skills. I was not sure if he could be a good romance leading man, coz there is obviously more acting involved than in action movies. He surprised me for actually did a pretty good job with this movie. Although I think he is a little too muscular for the role. I can not imagine a shy librarian can have so much muscle as he does. But he did a better job than I thought he would for sure. If I can feel the pain and the sorrow as the person he protrayed that means he did succeeded. So Eric Bana jumped out of my muscle man category and became someone that's possible for good acting too.Other actors are kind of blurry meaning just ok, no extraordinary pleasant surprises except for the children actors. The girl who played Claire when she was young is really adorable and I'm pretty sure I've watched her in some other major movies as well. Also the two girls who played their kid are very memorable. The young growing force or Hollywood is to watch for.The film adaption of good books are always tricky. Very rare the movie is as good as the book. This is another case of it. The book supposedly has a lot of very touching dialogue and moments. The movie does have very touching moments, too. I know it is far from what it was in the book, though I did not have the chance to read it yet. The movie language and the writing language is different in usage, but I think the adaption of the movie is not the most successful for sure.The movie is still a beautiful love story. But it did not reach it's full potential or close to it. I look forward to the reading of the original book. Nothing beats a good love story. The eternal quest for true love is always on.Something not concerning the movie: I've been missing my days in Van when I could communicate and talk in English. Lately I find that my English is slowly leaving me, coz I do not use it often enough. Translating documents in official words are very different from daily communication. From now on I hope to write and speak more in English to make sure that what I have learned over so many years of being in Van will not be wasted. So today will be a good start.Appreciation of the Waterloo BridgeDirected by Mervyn LeRoy, based on Robert Sherwood's play, with a screenplay by S.N. Behrman, Hans Rameau, and George Froeschel, this classic, tear-jerking wartime love story, starring Robert Taylor and Vivien Leigh, was Oscar nominated for its Cinematography and Original Musical Score.Leigh plays a melancholy dancer, Myra, who meets soldier Roy Cronin (Taylor) during an air raid in World War I London, just before he's to be shipped off to the front. Given a 48-hour leave, the carefree and romantic Roy, captivated by her beauty, sweeps Myra off her feet until she too isoptimistic about their future. He receives permission from his uncle, the Duke, to marry her. Unfortunately, due to some officialese, they are unable to get married before Roy must leave for France. Myra attempts to return to the ballet, but her tough boss refuses to accept her back into the company, and fires fellow dancer Kitty for her outburst in support of her friend.Myra and Kitty take an apartment together where they struggle to make ends meet until Roy's mother, Lady Margaret, who had been working with the Red Cross, is able to come for a visit. Just before this meeting, however, Myra reads Roy's name on a casualty list in the newspaper. Frightened and in shock, Myra is unable to make a good impression on her would-be future mother-in-law. After being comforted by the restaurant's hostess, Myra returns to Kitty who supports her financially during her depression by the only way a girl who can't find a job otherwise can. Soon, Myra comes out of her funk and realizes that Kitty has been selling herself to soldiers on leave. Naturally, she then joins this oldest profession herself. Tom Conway is the uncredited voice one hears as her first client.Later, as Myra is "greeting" the latest batch of soldiers arriving from the front at the train station, she sees Roy. Apparently, there was a reporting error made when he'd lost his dog tags. Ignorant of what has happened in her life, Roy is thrilled to see Myra and figures they'll just pick up where they left off. Promising never to leave her again, Roy insists on taking Myra to their country estate, to more properly introduce her to his family and friends. Though Myra struggles with what to tell Roy of her recent past, she also sees an opportunity to finally "make it" and promises Kitty, before she leaves, to set her up well when she returns.Though things do not go smoothly initially at the Cronin estate for Myra; some of the local families had hoped Roy would marry one of their daughters and are not very accepting of the newcomer from outside their caste. However, with help from Lady Margaret, who'd given her another chance per Roy's obvious love for Myra and the Duke, who insists on a showy dance with her, Myra is accepted. It is at this point that Myra's conscience gets the best of her and she comes clean to Lady Margaret, whom she asks never to tell Roy. Myra then departs early the next morning, leaving Roy clueless.Of course, Roy must find out what happened to the love of his life. He returns to London where he finds Kitty. Convinced of his love for Myra, Kitty reveals the truth of Myra's nightlife to Roy by taking him on a search for her through one seedy bar after another. Meanwhile, Myra is on Waterloo Bridge, where she's seen giving up; she walks rapidly past several troop trucks as they drive by before she throws herself under the wheels of one of them. The film ends with Colonel Roy, many years later at the beginning of World War II, fingering the good luck charm Myra had once given him.Waterloo Bridge is one of those rare films that never seem to strike a false note or put a foot wrong. There is not a wasted moment in the screenplay -- every shot has meaning, every scene plays its part -- and the dialogue gains its power through the lightest of touches. The single scene that brings me to tears every time is that brief, banal interview in the cafe, with the dreadful unknowing irony of every word Lady Margaret says.Yet for a tear-jerker, and one that centers on wartime separation and hardship, in an era where unemployment could mean literal starvation, the film contains perhaps more scenes of unalloyed happiness than any modern-day romance. The script is understated, sparkling with laughter and even at its darkest salted with black jest, while no-one can doubt the central couple's joy in each other. They themselves acknowledge, and repeatedly, the sheer implausibility of their romance:but war changes all the rules, makes people -- as Roy says -- more intensely alive.Waterloo Bridge has a touch of everything: laughter, tears, tension, misunderstanding, sweetness, beauty and fate. It couldn't be made in today's Hollywood without acquiring an unbearable dose of schmaltz; in the era of Pretty Woman, it probably couldn't be made at all. But of its kind it is perfect.In my mind this eclipses so many other more acclaimed wartime films. Find some way to watch this -- at least once in your life.。

专题07 七选五12篇(名校最新真题)高一英语下学期期中考点大串讲(牛津译林版)(原卷版)

专题07七选五▲命题特点七选五阅读正文部分通常是一篇完整的文章,有五个句子被挖空,正文后给出七个选项,均为完整句子,要求考生根据文章结构、内容,选出正确的句子,填入相应的空白处。

此题型拓宽了阅读理解能力考察的深度和广度,考查学生句子和语篇两个层面的阅读能力和领悟能力,以及对整个语篇的衔接手段与连贯性的洞察力。

总之,七选五的题型难度要大于传统的阅读理解题,对学生把握文章结构脉络、逻辑思维能力和语言综合运用能力,有更高的要求。

▲技巧点拨1、如果空白处在段首,则答案通常是段落主题句,做题时,应认真阅读本段内容,概括段落大意,查找同义词或其他相关的词,推断出主题句。

2、如果空白处在段中,段中的空白处多位于段落主题句之后,与上下文构成明显的逻辑关系:如常见的分述细化主题的并列关系、语义发生变化的转折关系,对上诉概念的解释说明、举例论证,这些句子起衔接上下文的作用,因此成为历年高考语篇考查的重中之重。

3、如果空白处在段尾,则答案通常是结论或概括性的语句。

空白处前的一句或两句是重点语句,重点阅读以锁定关键词。

做题时注意在选项中查找表示结果、结论、总结等的信号词如therefore,as a result,thus,hence,in short,to sum up,to conclude,in a word等词语。

如果在选项中找不出与前文之间的关联,此时可考虑与下一段开头是否有一定的衔接,即空白处起前后两段过渡作用。

Everyone has a choice when he wakes up in the early morning.You can choose to be happy or sad all the day. But for me , I think I have responsibilities to fulfill all the day. So every morning my first job is to choose what kind of day I am going to have. Today I can complain because it is rainy or I can be grateful that the grass is watered for free.Today I can feel sad because I don’t have more money or I can be glad that it will prevent me from wasting.Today I can feel very down because of a bad cold or I can rejoice that I am still alive.Today I can lament over all that my parents didn’t give me when I was growing up or I can feel grateful that they allowed me to be born.Today I can be disappionted for my lack of friends or I can be excited to discover new relationships.Today I can be exhausted because I have too much homework to do or I can feel honored because I’m getting closer to my dream in this way.What today will be like is just up to ourselves.We can get to choose what kind of day we will have! As teenagers,we stilll have much time to achieve our dreams, but the way to success is not so easy.If we choose to face it in a good mood and carry on trying,I believe we can enjoy the whole process and get to the destination of success much more easily and happily.In fact,everything depends on your own attitude.If you choose to be happy and positive,you will enjoy your work and have a good time.If you choose to be sad and negative,nothing good will come to you and your life will be colourless.The world around us is so beautiful.There is no reason why we don’t enjoy it.So,everybody,let’s choose to be happy everyday!Ok,that’s all.Thanks for listening!Good afternoon, everyone!The topic of my speec h today is “Being a Good Listener”.Good listening can always show respect, promote understanding, and improve interpersonal relationship.Many people suggest that parents should listen more to their children, so they will understand them better, and find it easy to narrow the generation gap; teachers should listen more to their students, then they can meet their needs better, and place themselves in a good relationship with their students; students should listen more to their classmates, thus they will help and learn from each other, and a friendship is likely to be formed.What I want to stress is that each of us should listen more to others. Show your respect and never stop others till they finish their talk; show you are interested by a supportive silence or a knowing smile; be open minded to different opinions eventhough you don’t like them. In a word, good listening can really enable us to get closer to each other.Thank you for your listening!As the song goes “ My future isn’t a dream .” I love the song which brings me confidence when singing it every time . I believe that all our dreams can come true if we have courage to pursue them .When I was young my father always asked me what I would be in the future . Sometimes I found it very hard to give a certain reply . “ I want to be a doctor .” “ I want to be a teacher .” and “ I ’d like to be a scientist !” Many of these answers are perhaps very childish and ridiculous . But I never think they are far away .How time flies! Who is able to give a definition to his future ? I know clearly that those high buildings are based on solid foundation . As a student , I should have a reasonable aim , and study hard . My goal is to enter the best university for further study after middle school . I know it’s hard work , and I ’ll come across many difficulties and frustrations . But no matter what they are , I’ll keep working on it and never give up . My teacher says there ’s only one kind of people that are truly succes sful : those who are brave enough to put up with hardships . Even if I won’t achieve the goal , I have no regrets for what I have done , for I have struggled for my life。

Unit 1 Life Choices单元话题阅读理解练习(2324高一上·海南海口·阶段练习)What a day! I started at my new school this morning and had the best time. I made lots of new friends and really liked my teachers. I was nervous the night before, but I had no reason to be. Everyone was so friendly and polite. They made me feel at ease. It was like I’d been at the school for a hundred years!The day started very early at 7:00 am. I had my breakfast down stairs with my mom. She could tell that I was very nervous. Mom kept asking me what was wrong. She told me I had nothing to worry about and that everyone was going to love me. If they didn’t love me, Mom said to send them her way for a good talking to. I couldn’t stop laughing.My mom dropped me off at the school gates about five minutes before the bell. A little blonde(金发的) girl got dropped off at the same time and started waving(招手) at me. She ran over and told me her name was Abigail. She was very nice and we became close straight away. We spent all morning together and began to talk to another girl called Stacey. The three of us sat together in class all day and we even made our way home together! It went so quickly. Our teacher told us that tomorrow we would really start learning and developing new skills.I cannot wait until tomorrow and feel as though I am really going to enjoy my time at my new school. I only hope that my new friends feel the same way too.1.How did the author feel the night before her new school?A.Tired B.Excited C.Worried D.Annoyed.2.What did the author think of he r mother’s advice?A.Clear B.Funny C.Reasonable.

So what if all children in a school were given an iPad to use in class and take home with them?Anne Laure Bazin works in a school where every child, teacher and teaching assistant is given a free iPad to use in and out of lessons. For her, the main advantage of everyone having an iPad has been the improvement in munication. Documents (文件) can be emailed straight over to coworkers during a meeting. Children can submit their homework by email, or through other terminals used on their iPads instead of giving it straight to the teachers. Teachers now take the register using their iPad, which means that there is a centralized record of which children are in school, and which classroom they are in.The use of iPads has encouraged greater sharing of resources among teachers. All munication with parents is now done by email. Working as a group in class is much easier as children can share documents. The whole class can look at one child’s work by attac hing the iPad to the whiteboard. If a child has forgotten the textbook, the teacher can take a photograph of the relevant (相关的) page and send it to the student in class.While the use of the iPad in schools has revolutionized (变革) the way children are tau ght, it hasn’t pletely replaced more traditional methods of teaching. Worksheets are still used in class as some children prefer the contact with paper. The children all have a textbook and exercise books. In Anne Laure’s school, parents feared that the iP ads would replace exercise books and children would lose handwriting skills. Anne Laure says, “The teachers are not ready to let go of the traditional style of teaching. We have weled the iPads in so much as they help munication and widen the resources available (可得到的) but we are not ready to let go of paper yet. The children themselves still value their exercise books and depend on them for revision. ”5.What does the underlined word “submit” in the second paragraph mean?A.Clean up. B.Concentrate on. C.Write down. D.Hand in.6.What is an advantage of using iPads in the classroom?A.It saves students bringing the textbooks.B.It reduces parents’ worry about teaching.C.It improves the relationship between teachers.D.It makes sharing information convenient.7.What is parents’ attitude towards the use of iPads in the classroom in Annie’s school?A.Worried. B.Uncaring. C.Annoyed. D.Supportive.8.What is the main idea of the last paragraph?A.Teachers prefer traditional methods of teaching.B.The iPads won’t take the place of printed materials.C.More and more schools are using iPads.D.Exercise books are more valuable now.(2324高一上·山东菏泽·阶段练习)Going from middle school to high school can be difficult, as students are faced with new academic (学业的) and social challenges. Before the first day of high school, there are things every soontobe high school freshman and their families should know.People who have a fixed mindset (思维倾向) believe that they are born to be great or weak. On the other hand, people that have a growth mindset believe that their greatness or weakness is because of their own actions. I totally agree that students should have a growth mindset. I don’t expect any student to move from just passing a subject to an A+. It’s going to take time and focuse d effort; just keep working on it.Parents should prepare students to fight the battle “on the pillow” and “in the kitchen”. When I say “pillow” I mean sleep. Not having enough sleep can have some surprising effects on students, including improper behavior, anxiety and poor grades. The second weapon (武器) is eating healthy and balanced meals. Studies show that students who eat nutritious meals and who exercise 60 minutes a day remain more attentive during the school day and experience improved academic achie vement and grades. This last “secret” weapon is not to have overscheduled (安排过度的) time. Make sure students know how to set realistic plans and how to say no to tasks and activities that aren’t important to them.A lot of students know each other from prima ry and middle school. They are in their “fort zones”, feeling they have a sense of control over and expectation of their relationships. But e the first real day of high school, that will all change.The reason I encourage high school freshmen to step out of their fort zones, though often scary, is that fort zones get boring and there are many kinds of people to get to know. Let’s encourage them to get involved, have fun and play.9.Which of the following represents a fixed mindset?A.I’m at the starting poin t of my potential.B.My mother is not good at chemistry either.C.I should start studying a little earlier next time.D.It’s okay if I fail; at least I’ve learned something.10.What might the author encourage parents to do?A.To prepare healthy meals for their kids.B.To praise their kids when they do well in school.C.To take their kids to visit their grandparents often.D.To buy soft pillows for their kids to have a good rest.11.What is the third weapon mainly about?A.Enjoying good health.B.Owning the ability to say no.C.Balancing schoolwork and play.D.Developing time management skills.12.What does the underlined word “that” in the last paragraph refer to?A.The sense of control.B.The value of friendship.C.The feeling that they have control over relationship.D.The feeling that they bee helpless.(2324高一上·河北秦皇岛·阶段练习)Frank and his brother Jack lived near the ocean. Frank was outgoing while Jack was shy. They liked doing different things. Frank was famous for organizing games of beach volleyball, football, and any other sport imaginable. Jack preferred to draw, paint, or build sandcastles (沙堡).Frank didn’t understand why Jack would rather do artistic things than play ball. He believed sports often allowed many kids to play together. That was when Ja ck’s idea hatched. He would show Frank what doing things together looked like!After Jack finished creating a special sandcastle with stairs, towers and walls, he took pictures of it. Then he painted colorful posters featuring (突出) his sandcastle and the q uestion, “Can you top this?” He hung his posters everywhere in town, announcing his plan for a day of sandcastle artistryall ages wele.When Frank saw poster, he not so nicely told Jack that no one would e. Still, shortly after sunrise on Saturday, Jack was on the beach digging in the sand. By midmorning, four kids were sculpting (雕塑) the sand alongside him. By noon the number had increased a lot.After Frank came back from his ball game, he went to check how his brother’s plan turned out. He couldn’t believe what he saw. At least 30 people were building a city of sandcastles, and everyone was chatting and laughing and working together! It was the most beautiful thing he had seen on the beach.“I guess you’ve proved me wrong,” Frank said. “You should make this sandcastle day a yearly tradition!”Handing Frank a shovel (铲子) with smile, Jack got started together with his brother on their super creation in the sand.13.What does the underlined word “hatched” in Paragraph 2 probably mean in Chinese?A.产生B.改变C.消失D.中断14.What helped people know about Jack’s plan?A.Beautiful towers.

Besides, I don’t know what your middle school was like, but high school teachers will not care about things such as how much homework you already have for one night. It’s best to just learn to deal with things and manage your time wisely so you can achieve everything you need to do.Frank, Aged 21I think almost every kid feels both anxious and excited before their first day. You will probably love it. I know I did. You should join in some sports or activities that will make your high school experience more enjoyable. Good luck!David, Aged 19I’m not going to lie. The first day is kind of frightening. But you’ll get used to it. Don’t be afraid of anyone; upperclassmen will pick on you more if you let them know you’re afraid. Just take it easy. Making some friends and st aying with them will greatly help you get used to high school quickly. After the first week it’s really not bad at all. Don’t worry.Eddie, Aged 20When I started high school, I was really nervous too, especially since I had been homeschooled all through mi ddle school and didn’t really know anyone. I suppose the best advice would be to just relax. The first couple of days can be a little bit hard, but things will bee easier before you know it.17.What can we infer from Sharon’s words about high school?A.Teachers are quite strict. B.Students often stay up at night.C.Teachers provide little care for students. D.Students should make good use of their time.18.Who mentions the importance of friends?A.David. B.Frank. C.Sharon. D.Eddie19.How did Eddie feel on his first day of high school?A.Excited. B.Worried. C.Bored. D.Relaxed.(2324高一上·云南昆明·期末)Math had never been something I was good at since middle school. Classes became harder in high school, and I was even further from a math teacher’s dream student. So at the start of my freshman year, I really loathed math. It wasn’t that I didn’t want to do well, but simply that I didn’t think I was able to do well. “I can’t” became my state of mind in all things about math.However, I was soon to learn that “I can’t”was not a choice in Mr. A’s class.Mr. A always greeted us with open arms as he said, “Wele! Smile! It’s a great day to be alive!” It was clear that Mr. A had a true passion (热情) not only for math but for teaching. If Mr. A ever experienced bad days in life, he never showed it. Mr. A greeted us with that same smile every day. He encouraged each student, from the top achiever to the “T can’t” student.I found myself looking forward to math class, although I still hated the subject itself. Being in Mr. A’s presence made me feel good, as if I had the chance to succeed. As the year progressed, I spent increasingly more time on my homework, and I met with Mr. A weekly. My classmates began to do the same, and it became “cool” to have lunch and talk with Mr. A.W e didn’t know it at the time, but he was changing our attitudes.Though my story is not one of overnight successes and I didn’t bee a straightA math student, my hard work did begin to pay off and my grades slowly began to climb. There were hard times, of course. Difficult math questions sometimes succeeded in bringing me down, but Mr. A kept reminding me, “Kate, smile!

Devices will only be allowed if they are needed for the lesson, for medical reasons, or for people with disabilities.“Scientific research showed that mobile phones are a disturbance (打扰). We need to protect students against this,” said Robbert Dijkgraaf, Minister of Education, Culture and Science of the Netherlands. “Students need to be able to concentrate and need to be given the opportunity to study well.” Dijkgraaf noted that schools could manage the implementation of the ban themselves.

选择的痛苦英语作文800字选择英语作文English VersionTitle: The Agony of ChoiceIn the labyrinth of life, we are often faced with a myriad of choices that shape our destiny. Each decision, like a crossroad, leadsus down different paths, some to success and others to lessons learned. But what is it about making choices that can cause such agony? Is it the fear of making the wrong decision, or is it the weight of the consequences that follow?The first time I truly felt the agony of choice was during my high school years. I was at a pivotal moment where I had to decide between pursuing a career in the arts or in science. My heart yearned for the freedom and expression that art offered, but my mind was drawn to the clarity and precision of the sciences. The decision was not an easy one. It felt as if my soul was torn between two worlds, each pulling me in different directions.The agony of choice is not just about the fear of making the wrong decision; it is also about the courage to make a decision at all. It is about the strength to stand by your choice, even when the path isfraught with challenges. It is about the resilience to learn from our choices, whether they lead us to success or failure.As I reflect on my journey, I realize that the agony of choice isan intrinsic part of life. It is a testament to our growth and ourability to adapt. It is a reminder that we are not just passiveobservers in our lives, but active participants who shape our own futures.In conclusion, the agony of choice is a universal experience that we all must face. It is a complex interplay of fear, courage, and growth. While it can be painful, it is also a necessary part of our journey. It is through these choices that we learn, we grow, and we become thepeople we are meant to be.。

中考英语作文my choiceAs I stand on the cusp of a new chapter in my life, the choices before me seem more numerous and complex than ever before. The road ahead is filled with岔路口, each leading to a different destination, each carrying its own set of opportunities and challenges. My choice, it seems, will shape not only my future but also the kind of person I become.The pressure to make the right decision is immense. Friends and family offer their opinions, hoping to guide me in the right direction. The media and society offer their own versions of success, making it difficult to decipher what truly matters. Amidst this cacophony of voices, I must find my own voice, my own truth.For me, the choice is not simply about finding the most lucrative career or the most prestigious university. It is about discovering what ignites my passion, what brings me joy, and what makes me feel alive. It is about understanding what my values are and living my life in alignment with those values.I choose to pursue a path that challenges me, that pushes me to grow and learn. I choose to surround myself with people who inspire me, who make me laugh, and who remind me of my worth. I choose to prioritize my health and happiness, to cherish the moments that truly matter, and to make a difference in the world, even if it's in the smallest way.My choice is not without risks. There will be failures and setbacks, there will be times when I doubt myself. But I believe that these challenges are what make the journey worthwhile. They are the stepping stones to growth and understanding, they are the lessons that teach meresilience and perseverance.In the end, my choice is not just about me. It is about the impact I want to have on the world, the legacy I want to leave behind. It is about living a life that is true to myself, that is filled with meaning and purpose.As I stand at this crossroads, I take a deep breath and I make my choice. I choose to follow my heart, to trust my instincts, and to embrace the unknown. I choose to live mylife with intention and purpose, to cherish every moment, and to make a difference, even if it's in the smallest way. My choice, it turns out, is not just a choice. It is a journey, an adventure, a celebration of life itself. And I, for one, am excited to embark on this journey, to discover what lies ahead, and to create a life that is rich, fulfilling, and true to myself.**我的选择:人生航路的导航**当我站在生活新篇章的门槛上,我面前的选择似乎比以往任何时候都更加多样和复杂。

这就是我的抉择作文英语

这就是我的抉择作文英语

这就是我的抉择作文英语This is My Decision。

Life is full of choices, big and small. Some decisions are made easily, while others require careful consideration. In my life, there was a decision that I had to make, which had a significant impact on my future. This decision was about choosing my career path. In this essay, I will share my thought process and the factors that influenced my decision.As a young student, I was always fascinated by theworld of science. The endless possibilities and the opportunity to make a difference in people's livesintrigued me. However, I also had a passion for the arts, particularly writing and photography. These two interests seemed to clash, and I found myself torn between pursuing a career in science or following my artistic dreams.To make an informed decision, I decided to researchboth career paths thoroughly. I spoke to professionals inthe fields of science and art to gain insights into their daily lives and the opportunities available. I also conducted online research, read books, and attended career fairs to gather as much information as possible.During my research, I discovered that a career in science would provide stability and a higher income potential. I could become a doctor, researcher, or engineer, and make a significant impact on society. On the other hand, a career in the arts offered a chance for self-expression and creativity. I could become a writer, photographer, or filmmaker, and share my perspective with the world.I then considered the practical aspects of each career path. I evaluated the job market, the demand for professionals in each field, and the potential for growth and advancement. It became clear to me that the sciencefield had more job opportunities and a higher demand for skilled professionals. Additionally, the potential for financial stability was greater in the science field.However, I couldn't ignore my passion for the arts. The thought of spending my life doing something I loved was incredibly appealing. I imagined myself traveling the world, capturing breathtaking images, and writing stories that touched people's hearts. The creative freedom and personal fulfillment that the arts offered were undeniable.After much contemplation, I realized that I didn't have to choose one path over the other. I could combine my love for science and the arts by pursuing a career in science communication. This field would allow me to use myscientific knowledge to communicate complex ideas to the general public through writing, photography, and filmmaking. It was the perfect blend of my interests and skills.With my decision made, I began taking steps towards my chosen career path. I enrolled in a science communication program at a renowned university, where I learned how to effectively communicate scientific concepts to a non-scientific audience. I also started building my portfolioby writing articles, taking photographs, and creating short films that focused on science-related topics.Looking back, I am confident that I made the right decision. I have found fulfillment in my work and have been able to combine my passion for science and the arts. I have had the opportunity to meet incredible people, travel to fascinating places, and make a difference in the world through my communication efforts.In conclusion, the decision to choose a career path is a significant one. It requires careful consideration ofone's interests, skills, and opportunities. By thoroughly researching and weighing the pros and cons, I was able to make an informed decision that aligned with my passions and aspirations. The path I chose has brought me joy and fulfillment, and I am excited to see where it leads me in the future.。

And I am one of them .Take my family鈥檚last vacation .It was my six-year-old son鈥檚winter break form school ,and we were heading home form Fort Lauderdale after a weeklong trip. The flight was overbooked ,and Delta , the airline ,offered us $400 per person in credits to give up our seats and leave the next day .I had meeting in New York锛孲o I had to get back . But that didn't mean my husband and my son couldn't stay. I took mynine-month-old and took off for home. The next day my husband and son were offered more credits to take an even later flight. Yes, I encouraged涓€okay, ordered-them to wait it out at the airport, to "earn" more Delta Dollars. Our total take: $1,600. Not bad, huh? Now some people may think I'm a bad mother and not such a great wife either. But as a big-time bargain hunter, I know the value of a dollar. And these days, a good deal is some-timething few of us can afford to pass up. I've made living looking for the best deals and exposing () the worst tricks .I have been the consumer reporter of NBC's Today show for over a decade. I have written a couple of books including one titled Tricks of the Trade: A Consumer Survival Guide. And I really do what I believe in.I tell you this because there is no shame in gettingyour money鈥檚worth. I鈥檓also tightfisted when it comes to shoes, clothes for my children,and expensive restaurants.But I wouldn't hesitate to spend on a good haircut. It keeps its longer, and it's the first thing people notice. And I will also spend on a classic piece of furniture. Quality lasts.56. Why did Delta give the author's family credits? A. They took a later flight. B. They had early bookings. C. Their flight had been delayed. D. Their flight had been cancelled. 57. What can we learn about the author? A. She rarely misses a good deal.B. She seldom makes a compromise.C. She is very strict with her childrenD. She is interested in cheap products. 58. What does the author do? A. She's a teacher. B. She's a housewife. C. She's a media person. D. She's a businesswoman. 59. What does the author want to tell us? A.How to expose bad tricks. B. How to reserve airline seats. C. How to spend money wisely, D. How to make a business deal. B They baby is just one day old and has not yet left hospital. She is quiet but alert ()銆俆wenty centimeters from her face researchers have placed a white card with two black spots On it.She stares at it carefully . A researcher removes the card and replaces it by another, this time with the spots differently spaced. As the cards change from one to the other,her gaze() starts to lose its focus - until a third, with three black spots, is presented. Her gaze returns锛泂he looks at it for twice as long as she did at the previous card. Can she tell that the number two is different from three, just 24 hours after coming into the world?Or do newborns simply prefer more to fewer? The same experiment,but with three spots shown before two, shows the same return of interest when the number of spots changes.Perhaps it is just the newness? When slightly older babies were shown cards with pictures of objects(a comb,a key,an orange and so on),changing the number of objects had an effect separate from changing the objects themselves.Could it be the pattern that two things make,as opposed to three? No again.Babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly on a screen whentheir number changed from two to three, or three to two. The effect even crosses between senses.Babies who were repeatedly shown two spots became more excited when they then heard three drumbeats than when they heard just two;likewist(鍚屾牱鍦? when the researchers started with drumbeats and moved to spots. 60.The experiment described in Paragraph 1 is related to the baby鈥檚__. A.sense of hearing. B.sense of sight. C.sense of touch. D.sense of smell. 61.Babies are sensitive to the change in______. A.the size of cards. B.the colour of pictures. C.the shape of patterns. D.the number of objects. 62.Why did the researchers test the babies with drumbeats? A.To reduce the difficulty of the experiment. B.To see how babies recognize sounds. C.To carry their experiment further. D.To keep the babies鈥?interest. 63.Where does this text probably come from? A.Science fiction.B.Children鈥檚literature.C.An advertisement.D.A science report. C It happened to me recently.Iwas telling someone how much Ihad enjoyed reading Barack Obama鈥檚Dreams From My Father and how it had changed my views of our President.A friend Iwas talking to agreed with me that it was ,in his words,鈥渁brilliantly锛堢簿褰╁湴锛墂ritten book鈥?however,he then went on to talk abour Mr Obama in a way which suggested he had no idea of his background at all .Isensed that Iwas talking to a book liar. And it seems that my friend is not the only one.Approximately two thirds of people have lied about reading a book which they haven鈥檛.In the World Book Day鈥檚鈥淩eport on Guilty Secrets鈥?Dreams From My Father is at number 9.The report lists ten books,and various authors,which people have lied about reading,and as I鈥檓not one to lie too often (I鈥檇hate to be caught out ),I 鈥檒ladmit here and now that I haven鈥檛read the entire top ten .But I am pleased to say that,unlike 42 percent of peoplt,I have read the book at numberone ,George Orwell鈥檚1984.I think it鈥檚really brilliant. The World Book Day report also has some other interesting information in it.It says that many people lie about having read jane Austen,Charles Dickens,Fyodor Dostoevsky(I haven鈥檛readhim,but haven鈥檛lied about it either )and Herman Melville. A sked why they lied,the most common reason was to鈥渋mpress鈥漵omeone they were speaking to.This coule be tricky if the conversation became more in 锟紺depth! But when asked which authors they actually enjoy,people named J.k.Rowling,JohnGrisham,Sophie Kinsella(ah,the big sellers,in other words).Forty-two percent of people asked admitted they turned to the back of the book to read the end before finishing the story(I鈥檒l come clean:I do this and am astonished that 58 percent said they had never dome so).64.How did the author find his friend a book liar? A.By judging his manner of speaking. B.By looking into his background. C.By mentioning a famous name. D.By discussing the book it self. 65.Which of the following is a鈥済uilty secret 鈥漚ccording to the World Book Day report? A.Charles Dickens is very low on the top-ten list. B.42% of people pretended to have read 1984. C.The author admitted having read 9 books. D.Dreams From My Father is hardly read. 66.By lying about reading ,a person hopes to . A.control the conversation B.appear knowledgeable C.learn about the book D.make more friends 67.What is the suthor鈥檚attitude to 58%of readers?A.Favorable.B.UncaringC.DoubtfulD.Friendly D The National Gallery Description: The National Gallery is the British national art museum built on the north side of European art ranging from 13th-century religious paintings to more modern ones by Renoir and Van Gogh.The older collections of the gallery are reached through the main entrance while the more modern works in the East Wing are most easily reached from Trafalgar Square by a ground floor entrance Layout: The modern Sainsbury Wing on the western side of the buileing houses 13th-to15th-century paintings,and artists include Duccio,Uccello,Van Eyck,Lippi,Mantegna,Botticelli and Memling.

选择困难症英文作文

选择困难症英文作文

选择困难症英文作文英文:I have always been struggling with making decisions, especially when it comes to choosing between multiple options. I suffer from what people call the "decision paralysis" or the "analysis paralysis". It is a condition where I find it hard to make a choice because I am afraid of making the wrong one.One of the reasons why I have difficulty making decisions is that I tend to overthink and analyze every possible outcome. I weigh the pros and cons of each option, and I end up getting stuck in a loop of indecision. Another reason is that I am afraid of missing out on something better. I am always looking for the best option, and this makes it hard for me to settle on one choice.To cope with my indecisiveness, I have developed some strategies. For instance, I try to prioritize my optionsbased on their importance and urgency. I also seek advice from people I trust, and I consider their opinions before making a decision. Additionally, I give myself a time limit to make a choice. If I cannot decide within that time, I force myself to choose one option randomly.Despite these strategies, I still struggle with making decisions. For example, when I go shopping, I spend hours trying to decide which shirt to buy. I end up leaving the store empty-handed or buying both shirts. Another example is when I am ordering food at a restaurant. I take forever to decide what to eat, and I end up asking the waiter for more time.In conclusion, having a hard time making decisions is a real struggle for me. It affects my daily life and causes me stress and anxiety. However, I am trying my best to overcome it by using different strategies and seeking help when needed.中文:我一直都很难做出决定,尤其是在面对多个选择时。

Page 3 Unit 1 Text A I Am Home我回家了I grew up on a farm with a huge family. There was lots of love, lots of space and lots to do. From gardening in the greenhouse to chasing our old goose, feeding the goats to gathering the cattle, the word “bored” never found its way into my vocabulary. The work for us was a labor of love.我在农场里长大,生活在一个大家庭里。

家中洋溢着爱,空间也很大,我们有做不完的事。

从暖房除草到赶我家那老迈的鹅,从喂山羊到赶牛群,我从来没有说过“厌倦”这个词。

干这些活儿我们都非常卖力。

My family and I were very close, spending most nights playing games or telling stories until it was time to go to bed. Falling asleep was never a problem for me. I just listened to the sounds of singing birds and dreamed of another day on the farm. This was my life, and I knew I was lucky.我和我的家人亲密无间,大多数的晚上我们玩游戏或讲故事,直到睡觉的时候方肯罢休。

我从来没有睡不着的问题。

我听着鸟儿的欢唱,梦想农场另一天的到来。

这就是我的生活,我知道我是个幸运儿。

When I was 12, though, something terrible happened that would change my life forever. My father suffered a serious heart attack and was diagnosed with heart disease. The doctors informed my dad that he would need to change his lifestyle completely, which meant no more farming life. We were forced to sell our home and move west.然而,在我12岁时,一件可怕的事情发生了,它永远改变了我的生活。

The threads of choice, woven through our days, determine the patterns and hues of our existence. My choice, my decision, my journey — these are the threads that shape my world.At every crossroad and turning point, we face choices. Some are minor, like what to wear or what to eat for dinner. Others are weighty, like career paths or the direction of our lives. Each choice, whether big or small, is an opportunity to shape our destiny.My choice has always been guided by my passions and principles. I believe in following a path that ignites my soul, even if it's less traveled. I have chosen to pursue a career in the field of education, not because it's apopular choice or offers financial security, but because italigns with my desire to make a positive impact on thelives of others.My journey in education has been rewarding, but not always easy. There have been challenges and setbacks, but I have persevered because I believe in the power of education to transform lives.

英语美文欣赏75Life is about choices 幸福可以选择迈克尔是个天生的乐天派,他总是能保持良好的情绪,总是能说出很多积极的话来。

他也让我懂得了一个道理,那就是人生中的每一天我们都可以选择充实地生活,态度决定一切。

Michael is the kind of guy you love to hate. He is always in a good mood and always has something positive to say. When someone would ask him how he was doing, he would reply, "If I were any better, I'd be twins!" He was a natural motivator.If an employee was having a bad day, Michael was there telling the employee how to look on the positive side of the situation. Seeing this style really made me curious, so one day I went up to Michael and asked him, "I don' t get it. You can' t be positive all the time. How do you do it?"Michael replied, each morning I wake up and say to myself 'Mike, you have two choices today. You can choose to be in a good mood or you can choose to be in a bad mood.' I choose to be in a good mood. Each time something bad happens, I can choose to be a victim or choose to learn from it. I choose to learn from it. Every time someone comes to me complaining I can choose to accept their complaining or I can point out the positive side of life. I choose the positive side of life.""Yeah, right. It isn't that easy." I protested."Yes it is, " Michael said. "Life is all about choices. When you cut away all the junk, every situation is a choice. You choose how you react to situations. You choose how people will affect your mood. You choose to be in a good mood or bad mood. The bottom line is: It's your choice how you live life. " I reflected on what Michael said.Soon thereafter, I left the big enterprise that I had worked in for years to start my own business. We lost touch, but I often though about him when I made a choice about life instead of reacting to it. Several years later, I heard Michael was involved in a serious accident, falling off 60 feet from a communications tower.After l8 hours of surgery, and weeks of intensive care, Michael was released from the hospital with rods placed in his back. I saw Michael about six months after the accident. When I asked him how he was, he replied, "If I were any better, I'd be twins. Wanna see my scars?" I declined to see his wounds, but did ask him what had gone through his mind as the accident took place."The first thing that went through my mind was the well being of my soon-to-born daughter," Michael replied. "Then, as I lay on the ground,remembered I had two choices: I could choose to live or I could choose to die. I chose to live." "Weren't you scared? Did you lose consciousness?" I asked. Michael continued, "... the paramedics were great. They kept telling me I was going to be fine. But when they wheeled me into the operation room and I saw the expressions on the faces of the doctors and nurses, I got really scared. In their eyes, l read 'He's a dead man.' I knew I needed to take action." "What did you do?" I asked. "Well, there was a big burly nurse shouting questions at me" said Michael. "She asked me if I was allergic to anything. 'Yes,' I said. The doctors and nurses stopped working as they waited for my reply. I took a deep breath and yelled", 'Gravity'" Over their laughter, I told them, 'I'm choosing to live. Operate on me as if I am alive, not dead'."Michael lived, thanks to the skill of his doctors, but also because of his amazing attitude.I learned from him that every day we have a choice to live fully. Attitude is everything.窗Random Thoughts on the Window又是春天,窗子可以常开了。

武邑中学2021-2021学年高一英语下学期课练16〔实验班〕I was standing in the checkout line behind a woman who looked to be in her 60s. When it was her turn to pay, the cashier(收银员) 31 her by name and asked her how she was doing. The woman looked down, shook her hand and said, “Not so good. My husband just lost his job and my 32 son is up to his old tricks again. The truth is, I don’t know how I’m going to 33 the holidays.〞 Then she gave the cashier food stamps.My heart 34 . I wanted to help but didn’t know how. Sh ould I offer to 35 her groceries or ask for her husband’s situation?36 I walked into the parking lot, I spotted the woman returning her shopping cart. I remembered something in my purse that I thought might help her. It wasn’t a handful of cash or an 37 of a job for her husband, but maybe it would make her life 38 .My heart beat faster as I 39 the woman. “Excuse me,〞 I said, my voice trembling a bit. “I couldn’t help overhearing what you said to the cashier. It sounds like you’re going through a really 40 time right now. I’m so sorry, but I’d like to give you something.〞I took a small card out of my purse and 41 it to her.When the woman read the card’s only two words, she began to cry. And through her 42 , she said, “You h ave no idea how much this 43 to me.〞I was a little 44 by her reply. Having never done anything like this before, I didn’t know what kind of 45 I might receive. All I could think to respond was, “Oh! Would it be OK to give you a 46 ?〞After we hugged 47 , I walked back to my car — and began to cry too.The words on the card?“You Matter.〞A few weeks earlier, a colleague gave me a similar card as 48 for a projectI was working on. When I read the card, I felt a 49 glow (喜悦) spread insideof me. Deeply touched, I came home and ordered my own box of You Matter cards and started 50 them.31.

But I’m not sure harmonizing with chipmunks —small American animals similar to squirrels with black lines on their fur — was what he had in mind.During my years with the US National Park Service, I spent six months working in a visitor center designed by Wright’s firm. Several other employees and I staffed the park’s phone and radio system f rom a room in the basement.I was sitting at my desk when I first heard a sound in the suspended ceiling. Dark shapes moved fast across the light panel(光板) above my head. Moments later, they ran back in the opposite direction, leaving me with an impression of noses and tails, each tail followed by another nose. It was like watching a shadow puppet(皮影) performance, but with real animals.“Baby chipmunks,〞 a fellow told me. “They live in the ceiling.〞After four summers working in the parks, I had grown accustomed to sharing indoor space with wildlife. Chipmunks in the workplace even seemed to be a joy; their behaviors provided a bit of stress relief on difficult days.As summer progressed, the shadows chasing each other across our lights grew bigger. Their movement across the light panels had become more of an athletic running.I had just answered a call one day when I heard a loud sound, and a ceiling panel fell down on my head. I dropped the phone as I fell out of my office chair, looking up just in time to see a brown tail disappear over the gap in the ceiling.I pulled myself off the carpet, laughing with my co-workers, and noticed the phone hanging over the side of the desk. I picked up the phone, preparing to explain the crash, the scream, the dropped phone, and the laughing to the listener who was about to visit the park.“I’m sorry, but you’re not going to believe what just happened.〞I don’t think he did.1. What does the author probably do?A. He’s a visitor.B. He’s a biologist.C. He’s an archi tect.D. He’s a consultant.2. What were the chipmunks doing when the author found them for the first time?A. They were chasing each other.B. They were making their home.C. They were jumping onto the lights.D. They were climbing up to the ceiling.3. How did the author feel about seeing chipmunks in his office?A. Scared.B. Curious.C. Pleased.D. Shocked.4. What was the main cause of the accident when the author was making a phone call?A. The chipmunks were fighting on the panel.B. The panel couldn’t bear the chipmunks’ weight.C. Something hit the ceiling from high above.D. The suspended ceiling was not firm.5. Who was the author talking to over the phone?A. One of his friends.B. Frank Lloyd Wright.C. A future park visitor.D. One of his colleagues.BBy trying to tickle(挠痒痒) rats and recording how their nerve cells respond, Shimpei Ishiyama and his adviser are discovering a mystery that has puzzled thinkers since Aristotle expected that humans, given their thin skin and unique ability to laugh, were the only ticklish animals.It turns out that Aristotle was wrong. In their study published on Thursday, Ishiyama and his adviser Michael Brecht found that rats squeaked and jumped with pleasure when tickled on their backs and bellies. These signs of joy changed according to their moods. And for the first time, they discovered a special group of nerve cells. These nerve cells made this feeling so powerful that it causes an individual being tickled to lose control.To make sure that he had indeed found a place in the brain where tickling was processed, Ishiyama then stimulated(刺激) that area with electrical currents. The rats began to jump like rabbits and sing like birds.“It’s truly ground-breaking,〞 said Jeffrey Burgdorf, a neuroscientist at Northwestern University who reviewed the paper. “It takes the study of emotion to a new level.〞Burgdorf has played a central role in our understanding of animal ticklin g. He was part of a team that first noticed, in the late 1990s, that rats made special noises when they were experiencing social pleasure. Others had already noted that rats repeatedly made short and high sounds during meals. But the lab where Burgdorf worked noticed that they emitted similar sounds while playing. And so one day, the senior scientist in the lab said, “Let’s go and tickle some rats.〞 They quickly found that those cries of pleasure doubled.“The authors have been very adventurous,〞 said Daniel O’Connor, a neuroscientist at Johns Hopkins University who studies touch. To him, that finding was very surprising.“Why does the world literally feel different when you are stressed out?〞 he said. “This is the first step towards answering that que stion. It gives us a way to approach it with experimental rigor(严谨).〞6. What contributed to humans’ being ticklish according to Aristotle?A. Their special skin.B. Their social pleasure.C. Their nervous system.D. Their willingness to touch.7. Why did the researchers make use of electrical currents?A. To discover the special group of ner ve cells.B. To experiment on different animals.C. To follow the process of tickling.D. To prove their finding.8. Which of the following statements will Jeffrey Burgdorf agree with?A. The research process is full of risks.B. The finding of the study is surprising and unbelievable.C. The new discovery is beneficial for the study of emotion.D. The finding of the study actually contradicts modern science.9. The underlined word “squeak〞 in Paragraph 2 may be explained by ______.A. give a smileB. make a noiseC. burst into tearsD. watch with staring eyes10. What is the best title for the text?A. The Life of RatsB. How Rats LaughC. A Wonderful ScientistD. A New Discovery about RatCAfter shopping for deals in stores on “Black Friday〞, or online on “Cyber Monday〞, Americans and people worldwide are preparing for newly popular “G iving Tuesday〞. Starting in 2021, now the global event that is celebrated annually on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving is the brainchild of 92nd Street Y,a cultural center in New York City and the United Nations Foundation.As the name indicates, Giving Tuesday is meant to restart the charitable season and therefore observed by raising funds for local nonprofits and schools, organizing food and clothing drives, and conducting random acts of kindness. In 2021,700,000 people from 71 countries came together to donate $116.7 million in cash. An additional $ 1.08 million was spent on gifts.While the easiest way to participate is by donating to your favorite charity, this day can be celebrated in many other ways too. You can give back by volunteering at your local shelter or food bank, or even by donating blood. If all else fails, a purchase from the growing number of organizations that give a portion of their sales to charity will do the trick.But perhaps the best way to celebrate the day is those nearest and dearest to you. Assist a family member with a simple chore like folding laundry, cooking dinner, or even reading to a younger sibling. No matter what you do, be sure to share your good deed on social media and inspire others to celebrate Giving Tuesday as well!11. Which of the following has the shortest history?A. Giving Tuesday.B. Black Friday.C. Thanksgiving Day.D. Cyber Monday.12. What’s the main purpose of “Giving Tuesday〞?A. To make Thanksgiving Day enjoyable.B. To encourage more people to do charities.C. To get voluntary work better known.D. To persuade more people to shop online.13. Why does the author advise sharing good deeds on social?A. To keep a record of one’s experience.B. To help people make new friends.C. To make Giving Tuesday more popular.D. To donate money to local schools.14. Which section of a website does the text probably comeA. Lifestyle.B. Education.C. Culture.D. Business.DMy newlywed husband said the same thing every morning. “You're beautiful today.〞One glance in the mirror showed that it was far from the truth.“Liar,〞 I shot back with a grin.It was my usual response. My mother's first husband was not a kind man and his verbal (语言的) and physical abuse forced her and her two children to find a safe place. He showed up on her doorstep one day with roses. She let him in and he beat her with those roses and took advantage of her. Nine months later she gave birth to a 9 lb. 13oz. baby girl -- me.The rude words we heard growing up took root. I had trouble seeing myself as someone of value. I had been married two years when I surprised myself. My husband wrapped his arms around me and told me I was beautiful.A lot of years have passed. My husband has grey in his hair. I'm no longer skinny. Last week I woke up and my husband's face was inches from mine.“What are you doing?〞 I asked.I covered my mouth, trying to hide my morning breath. He reached down and kissed my face.“What I do every morning,〞 he said.What a man! My husband understands my past. He's been beside me as I've grown from an unsure young girl to a confident woman, mother, speaker and author.But I'm not sure that he understands the part he played in that transformation. The words I heard growing up pierced〔刺穿〕 my soul, yet his words pierced even deeper.This Anniversary Day I plan to wake early. I want to tell Richard how much I love him. He may look in the mirror and see an extra pound or two, or wish for the day when his hair was dark and curly, but all I'll see is the man who saw something in me when I couldn't see it myself, and who leaves butterfly kisses, even after twenty-three years of marriage.15. When the author looked into the mirror, she found herself ______.A. beautifulB. confidentC. untidyD. unusual16. Why did the author’s mother and her two children have to move?A. Because their house was too small.B. Because they were not well treated by the husband.C. Because they were expecting another baby.D. Because her mother’s husband wanted them to move.17.
