There are many ways to help you relax. __1__ It takes a little effort to get there but the benefits are great for our stressed-out lives. I am talking about the activity of forest bathing.__2__ It was introduced as a national health programme by the country's government. Stressed Japanese workers are today still relaxing and reconnecting with nature. The Forest Therapy Society has certified 62 forest therapy sites in the country and the forest bathing movement is also booming in other parts of the world. It says,“Just as bathing in a hot spring helps to soak your cares off, going for a walk in the woods is said to have a comforting effect.”Forest bathing is about taking time to wander through woodland with no fixed plan or route and just expose yourself to the forest atmosphere. __3__ That's particularly good for people with mental health issues.

Brain scans showed reduced activity in an area of the brain linked to the risk of mental illness in participants who took a 90-minute walk among oaks, birds and squirrels.

So now is the time to get out and lose yourself in the natural environment. __5__A.But the best way lies in the great outdoors.B.Connecting with nature has never been more urgent.C.Forest bathing is rising in popularity around the world.D.Having this exposure to nature seems to promote well-being.E.You could even hug a tree as it could be your new best friend!F.The Japanese concept of forest bathing dates back to the 1980s.G.It also found forest bathing could decrease stress, anxiety, and depression.Ⅲ.完形填空Molai grew up in a tiny village in which became his second __1__.

Without warning, her landlord decided to sell the three-bed house in Bath that she'd been renting for £1,000 a month for the past three years. Diamond, a single mother of a teenage daughter and son, quickly found that on her yearly salary of £28,000, she couldn't afford to rent another home locally.“My pay has been frozen while rents have rocketed in Bath. Another three-bed place would have cost me £1,300 a month -80% of my take home pay -leaving my children and me with just £320 a month to live on.”She needed £4,000 to move home, including the deposit(押金). “I just didn't have the money.”Research found that in the UK one out of three low earners have borrowed money to pay their rent, either from family and friends or through credit cards. A full 70% of low earners are either struggling or falling behind with rent payments,barely managing to have somewhere to live.Someone argues that people who can't afford their rent should move elsewhere, but low pay is widespread and there are more job opportunities in the places with higher rents. If you can barely afford to save £10 a month, then the rental deposit, first month's rent and removal fees are far beyond your resources unless you deliberately fall behind on your rent.Increasingly, organizations that deal with poverty and housing are shouting for a housing solution that deals with affordability, not just supply. Arguing that simply increasing supply will cause the market to automatically grow fairer is nonsense.The fact that so many people are struggling to pay their rent should cause outrage (义愤) and shame. And credit is limited: eventually those borrowing to cover rent won't be able to borrow more, and will become homeless or cost the local authority more when they need rehousing. And if people in work are struggling with rent, what hope do people out of work have?4.What does the underlined word in Paragraph 2 mean?A.Used up. B.Becoming less and less.C.Incapable of being changed. D.Saved up for other purpose.5.What can we know about low earners?A.It is the deposit that stops them from renting a house.B.They can't save even £10 a week after paying their rent.C.They get used to borrowing much money from the banks.D.One third of them can't afford their rents by themselves.6.Why do people have to stay in the places with higher rents?A.Low pay is widespread. B.They may be employed easily.C.The deposit is low there. D.The government can help them there.7.What does the author think of some organizations' solution?A.Fair B.Imaginative.C.Useless. D.Uncertain.Ⅲ.书面表达假定你是李华,你的澳大利亚朋友Alex 听说你校刚刚举办了运动会,来信询问你相关情况。
2021届高考核心考点十分钟基础题速练: 语法填空+阅读理解+书面表达
2021届高考核心考点十分钟基础题速练:语法填空+阅读理解+书面表达姓名:班级:Ⅰ.语法填空Recent heavy rains in Texas and the deadly heat wave in India are __1__ (sign) that climate change is most likely to contribute __2__ extreme weather events. “There are so many additional greenhouse gases in the atmosphere today __3__ our climate we know for sure __4__ (affect) by them,” says Jim White, director of CU-Boulder's Institute of Arctic and AlpineResearch. “The heat wave in India is quite consistent with __5__ we expect to see in the future.”According to Swiss researchers, extreme weather events worldwide are increasing with regularity, __6__ (indicate) that they are becoming part of the Earth's overall climate pattern. White says, it's one thing to know that these extreme weather events __7__ (happen) in the future, but to know the exact time and place is something that seems quite __8__ (possible).“Since the atmosphere just holds more moisture(水蒸气), we can generally say that more rain in a warmer world is expected. That's not __9__ (terrible) comforting—if it's raining out over the ocean, that doesn't do __10__ (we) any good. What we do think is going to happen is that as the atmosphere warms up we'll get more rain per event.”Ⅱ.阅读理解AFor decades, the admission to the eight selective high schools, which rank near the top of U.S secondary schools, has been based on the city's Specialized High Schools Admissions Test (SHSAT). Tens of thousands of eighth graders seek admission, but only 10% of those admitted are from disadvantaged backgrounds, who make up 67% of New York City students. Therefore, Mayor de Blasio recently put forward a new plan. He'd use New York State's standardized (标准的) test results plus class ranks to select students for the specialized schools so that high achievers from those disadvantaged backgrounds would get the opportunity.Critics (评论家) say this will admit youngsters who don't get top marks on an objective admission test, thus harming the schools' quality. However, two proven ways can guarantee these schools' excellence and the mayor's plan contains both.The first is screening every student using a universal assessment that almost everyone takes rather than relying on a separate exam. It_has_been_employed_in_Broward_Country_and_it_worked_really_well_for_poor_and_minority_youngsters.The second is analyzing scores at the school level instead of the district level, so that it is fair for able students in every “feeder schools”. This makes the qualifying (有资格的) populations diverse in a way that doesn't favor advantaged kids. That's why the University of Texas offers admission to the top 7% of graduates of every high school in the state rather than the top 7% statewide.New York City has long failed its high achievers from disadvantaged backgrounds. So Mayor deBlasio's reforms could be a step in the right direction—if they're done right.1.What do we know from the first paragraph?A.Secondary high schools are in great demand in New York.B.The mayor's new plan has helped the disadvantaged kids.C.It is competitive to gain admission to the selective schools.D.33% of those admitted are from advantaged backgrounds.2.What is some critics' concern over the plan?A.There will be no qualifying students. B.It will cause too much stress on selection.C.There will be a decline in the school quality. D.It will be unfair to the advantaged students.3.The underlined part in Paragraph 3 implies the standardized test ________.A.benefits the disadvantaged students B.does good to the mayor's political careerC.has been practiced throughout the country D.has met with challenges in Broward County4.What is the writer's attitude towards the plan?A.Favorable B.Reserved C.Doubtful D.DisapprovingBCustomers who come into the Waffle House recognize server Evoni Williams, a soft-spoken 18-year-old from Texas City. It all started with a Facebook post. On the morning of March 3, Laura Wolf was eating breakfast at the Waffle House in La Marque when she overheard an older man, who reminded her of her late father, tell Williams he had trouble with his hands. The man, later identified as regular customer Adrien Charpentier, had an oxygen tank nearby and needed help cutting up his food. “Without hesitation,” Wolf wrote, Williams “took his plate and began cutting up his ham.”Impressed, Wolf posted the moment on her Facebook page to share the warmth and kindness with all. The following day, Williams's Facebook notification(关注)began to light up. Her friends saw Wolf's post and tracked her in it.Williams had no idea that someone took a photo that morning. The diner was so busy that a line extended outside thedoor. She said helping Charpentier was reflexive. She has been working at Waffle House since last June to save for college, and this, she figured, was just the right thing to do. “I would want someone to help my grandmother or grandfather,”Williams said.The post began to make its rounds in La Marque and eventually landed in front of the city's mayor, Bobby Hocking. He decided to declare March 8 as Williams's day, and also received an email from Texas Southern University President Austin A.Lane, asking if the school could present Williams with a scholarship.Williams still works at Waffle House five days a week and plans to do so until she starts classes in the fall at Houston-based Texas Southern. Wolf said Williams does not have a car to get to classes, but some people have offered to start a GoFundMe page for her, proving that a moment of a kindness can change a life.5.Why did Wolf post the photo on Facebook?A.The photo reminded her of her late father. B.It could satisfy her inner needs.C.She was touched by the sight. D.The customer had trouble with his hands.6.What does the underlined word in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A.Without a second thought. B.After careful consideration.C.Winning a reward. D.Better serving customers.7.What can we infer about Evoni Williams?A.She seldom saw Charpentier come to the House for breakfast.B.It was GoFundMe page that led to her good luck.C.She is no longer working in service business.D.She has probably received a scholarship for her college education.8.What is the author's purpose of writing the article?A.To help Williams receive higher education.B.To introduce a random act of kindness.C.To show that young generation can always help.D.To emphasize the influence of the social media.Ⅲ.书面表达假定你是某国际学校的学生李华,你校正在组织学生作为交流生到英国学习两个月,你非常想得到这次交流学习的机会。

Understanding her good intentions, I eat all the food what is provided by Mom with appreciation.Ⅱ.阅读理解Acase that has a clip (夹子), but it's not designed to be worn on your clothing. Most interestingly, it uses artificial intelligence to take photography out of your hands so it can capture moments on its own.This roughly 2-inch by 2-inch camera, with a three-hour battery life and Gorilla Glass for toughness, is intended for candid moments, like when a child does something cute that may happen too quickly for you to pull out your smartphone.Onboard the Clips device, it uses machine learning algorithms (计算程序) to help capture scenes. Those algorithms include face recognition. “Once it learns that there's a face you see frequently, it'll try to get nice photos of thosefaces,” said Juston Payne, the device's product manager. And they also want it to recognize facial expressions, which involved “training it to know what happiness looks like”. The Google team also trained it to recognize what not to shoot-like when a child's hand is over the lens, or if it is tossed in a dark purse.The only way to see the images is by connecting the camera with your phone, as it has no screen for viewing or editing.Were people concerned it could seem strange? Yes, Payne admitted. But they said they addressed that by making it obvious what it is. A green light on the front signals that it is on. Besides, unlike a camera meant to monitor your home, it is not connected to the Internet.“This product is only possible because of the way that silicon has advanced,” Payne said, noting that it was only in the past year or so that they could squeeze the technology down into a device this size. Going forward, we're likely to get more assistance from the artificial intelligence packed into our apps and gadgets.1.What is the most outstanding feature of Clips?A.It is equipped with tough glass. B.It enables easy Internet access.C.It allows of hands-free photography. D.It can be worn on your clothing.2.What does the underlined word “candid” in Paragraph 2 mean?A.Brief. B.Touching. C.Unforgettable. D.Embarrassing.3.What makes Clips a reality according to Juston Payne?A.The popularity of the Internet. B.The advance in technology.C.The rise of the smartphone industry. D.The reduction in the price of lens.4.What is the best title for the text?A.A New Digital Camera from Google. B.New Gadgets in the Age of Apps.C.Artificial Intelligence in Everyday Life. D.An Alternative Way to Photograph.Bup: thousands of hopefuls line up outside the audition (试音) room, wait for hours to go in and perform for a group of judges. Then these potential pop stars could be lucky and get through to the next round, or they might hear the command, “Sorry, it's a no from me.” But what do the judges actually bring to a talent show?Music talent show judges attract millions of viewers each week to their programs. As public figures, they play an important part in advertising campaignsfor these programs. They often receive high salaries and can be moody. Are they really worth the expenses and difficulties that they cause? One solution might be to replace them with computers.Can computers really match human judges? Scientist Dr Nick Collins and his team at the University of Sussex think they can. Dr Collins has been working on a project that involves programming three computerized judges that he says would be far more consistent in their judgment of musical performances. Employing a special programming language, Dr Collins's digital judges can be trained up by “listening”to particular musical styles. After they have been listening for a while, the programming language allows these judges to spot the specific features of the music, including the voice quality, the rhythm etc. Collins says, “The judges' listening capacity is not yet as good as a human ear, but they won't be as moody as some human reality TV show judges.”Maybe that is the problem with this electronic musical innovation. Real human judges on talent shows interest us with their personality, decisions and catchy phrases. Will a computer program be able to do the same?5.The arrangements of the traditional talent show are described in Paragraph 1 to ________.A.find out more potential pop stars B.show the popularity of the talent showC.make people familiar with the talent show D.bring up the topic of talent show judges6.What is the key message conveyed in Paragraph 2?A.Music talent shows are very competitive.B.Music talent shows cost too much money.C.There are some problems with talent show judges.D.There are too many advertisements in talent show programs.7.How does Collins think about his computerized Judges?A.They can listen as well as human ears. B.They will be welcomed by the public.C.They will be perfect for any talent show. D.They can judge more fairly than human judges.8.What's the author 's opinion about replacing real human judges with computerized ones?A.Doubtful B.Interested C.Satisfied D.OptimisticⅢ.书面表达假定你是李华。

It has been used by more than 100 million people. In December, the school announced it also would begin offering a special certificate, known as MITx, for people who complete certain online courses. Harvard has long offered courses to a wider population through a similar program.The MITx will serve as the foundation for the new learning platform.MIT President Susan Hockfield said more than 120,000 people signed up for the first MITx course. She said Harvard and MIT hope other universities will join them in offering courses on the open-source edX platform.“Fasten_your_seatbelts,” Hockfield said.Other universities, including Stanford, Yale and Carnegie-Mellon, have been experimenting with teaching to a global population online.The Harvard-MIT program will be monitored by a not-for-profit(非盈利的)organization based in Cambridge, to be owned equally by the two universities. Both MIT and Harvard have provided $30 million to start the program. They also plan to use the edX platform to research how students learn and which teaching methods and tools are most successful.1.According to this text, edX is ________.A.a part of the free MIT OpenCourseWareB.a free computer program by MIT and HarvardC.a Harvard-MIT platform of free online coursesD.a free program online for universities worldwide2.What is said about online education in the text?A.Universities have been trying online courses.B.About 2,000 online courses have been offered.C.Over 100 million people have finished courses online.D.Stanford and Yale together have courses similar to edX.3.The underlined part in the text probably means “________”.A.Get ready for the difficulties B.Get ready for this educational changeC.Get prepared to complete the online courses D.Get prepared to make materials for the edX courses4.What can be said about MITx according to the text?A.It is first offered as part of the edX learning program.B.It is another free MIT-Harvard online learning program.C.It is a standard to recognize online learners' achievement.D.It is a new kind of free online course of Harvard and MIT.BHow to Use a Modern Public LibraryHas it been a while since your last visit to a public library? If so, you may be surprised to learn that libraries have changed for the better. It's been years since they were dusty little rooms with books. They have transformed themselves into places where you can develop your love of knowledge, meet interesting people, or find out how to start a business.Check out a book. While libraries still loan out (出借) books, you'll find it easier to get a copy of whatever you're looking for, thanks to a cooperative network of area libraries. Via such networks, libraries share their books with each other through the use of delivery vehicles. Once the book you've requested is delivered to the nearest branch, they will inform you by e-mail, so you can pick it up.Check out other items. The library is now a multimedia zone, loaded with information in many formats (载体形式). You can borrow movies on DVDs, music on CDs, and popular magazines. Some libraries even loan out toys and games. If a popular magazine you want isn't offered and the library keeps a list of such requests, they may bring it in when enough interest is shown.Join targeted reading groups. Libraries will often hold reading-group sessions targeted to various age groups. Perhaps you'd like to learn a language or improve your English. The library may sponsor a language group you could join. If you have difficulties reading, ask about special reading opportunities. Your library might be able to accommodate you. And you might find it relaxing to bring your small kid to a half-hour Story Time while you sit quietly in a corner with a good book.Start a business using the help of your local library. If you want to have a business of your own, your local library can become a launch space for it. In library books and computers, you can find information on starting a business. Many libraries will help you with locally supplied information about business management shared through chambers of commerce (商会) and government agencies, and they will offer printing, faxing and database services you need.5.Public libraries connected by a cooperative network benefit readers by________.A.sharing their books on the InternetB.giving access to online reading at a library branchC.sending a needed book to a library branch nearbyD.making the checkout procedures diverse6.According to Paragraph 3, what items may be checked out from a public library?A.A magazine and an e-book.B.A game and an oil painting.C.A music CD and a kid's toy. D.A DVD and a video player.7.As is described in Paragraph 4, taking a small kid to a half-hour Story Time allows ________.A.the kid to learn a new language B.the parent to enjoy quiet readingC.the kid to overcome reading difficulties D.the parent to meet their program sponsor8.Your local library can help you start a business by ________.A.providing relevant information and supporting servicesB.offering professional advice on business managementC.supplying useful information of your potential buyersD.arranging meetings with government officials9.What is the purpose of the passage?A.To point out the importance of public libraries.B.To encourage people to work in public libraries.C.To introduce the improved services of public libraries.D.To call for the modernization of public library systems.答题策略参考答案Ⅰ.短文改错答案:I have aan older sister.

And contrary to existing research that says you should avoid eating with heavier people who order large portions (份), it's the beanpoles with big appetites you really need to avoid.To test the effect of social influence on eating habits, the researchers conducted two experiments. In the first, 95 undergraduate women were individually invited into a lab to ostensibly (表面上) participate in a study about movie viewership. Before the film began, each woman was asked to help herself to a snack. An actor hired by the researchers grabbed her food first. In her natural state, the actor weighed 105 pounds. But in half the cases she wore a specially designed fat suit which increased her weight to 180 pounds.Both the fat and thin versions of the actor took a large amount of food. The participants followed suit, taking more food than they normally would have. However, they took significantly more when the actor was thin.For the second test, in one case the thin actor took two pieces of candy from the snack bowls. In the other case, she took 30 pieces. The results were similar to the first test: the participants followed suit but took significantly more candy when the thin actor took 30 pieces.The tests show that the social environment is extremely influential when we're making decisions. If this fellow participant is going to eat more, so will I. Call it the “I'll have what she's having” effect. However, we'll adjust the influence. If an overweight person is having a large portion, I'll hold back a bit because I see the results of his eating habits. But if a thin person eats a lot, I'll follow suit. If he can eat much and keep slim, why can't I?1.What is the recent study mainly about?A.Food safety. B.Movie viewership.C.Consumer demand. D.Eating behavior.2.What does the underlined word “beanpoles”in paragraph 1 refer to?A.Big eaters. B.Overweight persons.C.Picky eaters. D.Tall thin persons.3.Why did the researchers hire the actor?A.To see how she would affect the participants.B.To test if the participants could recognize her.C.To find out what she would do in the two tests.D.To study why she could keep her weight down.4.On what basis do we “adjust the influence” according to the last paragraph?A.How hungry we are.B.How slim we want to be.C.How we perceive others.D.How we feel about the food.Babout what to write.He recalled that the competition deadline was merely a week away. But he still had not even started on his piece. He looked at the brochure again. “WRITING COMPETITION!”the title read. His mom had encouraged him to enter the writing competition, and he was taking it on as his personal task for the holidays.As the boy reflected on his previous efforts at writing, he realized how hopeless his task of winning was. Every story he ever wrote was based on other stories. He had little imagination, and unfortunately, imagination was the key to writing.Suddenly, he had a brainwave. This time, he came up with an original and imaginative story.The words shot toward him like a storm of leaves. Words were coming easily, flowing through him, faster than his speed of typing. He typed faster than he ever had before. He continued to type, amazed at how easy writing this story was. The boy could not stop writing. He looked at the word count and saw the number “248” staring right back at him. He was not even halfway yet.Then he heard the call of his mother, saying it was time for bed. He continued writing the piece, ignoring her. He had to make up for the time he had lost thinking about a topic to write.Finally, he finished. The word count now read “498”.“Perfect,” he thought, “just under the word limit.” He knew thiswas the story that would win.He went onto Google and searched for the competition. He found the page but there was no “Enter” button.5.What caused the boy to take part in the writing competition?A.A new computer. B.The prize money.C.His own interest. D.His mom's advice.6.How did the boy finish his earlier writing?A.His mom helped him. B.He copied others' ideas.C.His friends assisted him. D.He used his imagination.7.Why did the boy delay his writing?A.He was terribly lazy. B.He didn't know what to write.C.He wasn't confident.

What is she reading? None of your business! Lunch is Bechtel's “me” time. And like more Americans, she's not alone.A new report found 46 percent of meals are eaten alone in America. More than half (53 percent) have breakfast alone and nearly half (46 percent) have lunch by themselves. Only at dinnertime are we eating together anymore, 74 percent, according to statistics from the report.“I prefer to go out and be out. Alone, but together, you know?” Bechtel said, looking up from her book. Bechtel, who works in downtown West Palm Beach, has lunch with coworkers sometimes, but like many of us, too often works through lunch at her desk. A lunchtime escape allows her to keep a boss from tapping her on the shoulder. She returns to work feeling energized. “Today, I just wanted some time to myself,” she said.Just two seats over, Andrew Mazoleny, a local videographer, is finishing his lunch at the bar.

But does music affect plants, too? People have been experimenting with music for almost three decades. From schoollevel projects to higherlevel scientific experiments, the effect of music on plants has been a confusing and debatable topic.We know music is sound and sound is nothing more than a wave. Plant growth is a result of the cell division that takes place within the cells. But why is music associated with plant growth? In humans, music has a strong effect on our health and mood, and over the years, people have claimed that the same effect has been observed on plants, too. Plants are sensitive by nature, and many people claim that they have feelings just as humans do. There are stories about plants shedding tears. Although scientists do not support these as facts, these myths have led them to take up various experiments on plants.Various studies have proved that plants respond to acoustic energy (声能). It increases their rate of growth and their sizes, and influences their overall health. Dan Carlson, after years of research, has reached a conclusion that music helps plants absorb nutrients more efficiently.It took Dan about fifteen years to develop a foliage spray (叶面喷剂) that is used beneficially with the sound frequencies. Dan calls this spray “Sonic Bloom”His findings have proved to be beneficial for countless farmers and have made contributions to—according to the Guinness Book of World Records—the birth of the largest indoor plant on record.The Purple Passion was treated with the Sonic Bloom process. It grew to be 1,300 feet tall and was alive even after 25 years. Its normal lifespan (寿命), however, is 18 months and it grows not more than 18 feet tall. The book, Secrets of the Soil, describes Sonic Bloom and its results. Sonic Bloom is also sold on the market.1.What inspired scientists to experiment with plants?A.The effects of music on humans.B.Plants are sensitive by nature.C.The cell division taking place within the cells.D.People's debatable opinions of the effect that music has on plants.2.What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?A.Nutrients are important to plants.B.Music can have some good effects on plants.C.The rate of growth of plants can be improved.D.What kinds of music can contribute to the growth of plants.3.What did Dan Carlson develop?A.A spray called “Sonic Bloom”. B.A method for growing larger plants.C.A special plant that grows very fast. D.Acoustic energy that plants respond to.4.Why is the Purple Passion included in the Guinness Book of World Records?A.It is the oldest indoor plant. B.It is the largest indoor plant.C.It gives off the most pleasant smell. D.It can grow in the toughest condition.BA survey in the the country uses a “shocking”amount of singleuse plastic, including nearly 60 billion sachets (小袋) a year, a report said. The report, produced by the nongovernmental organization GAIA, is part of an effort to collect data on plastic consumption as environmentalists push for government action to reduce plastic waste.It contains shocking figures: every day, almost 48 million shopping bags are used throughout the Philippines, adding up to more than 17 billion a year. And that figure does not include thesmaller, thinner and often transparent plastic bags known as “labo”bags—around 16. 5 billion of those are used per year across the country, the report says. The figures are based on 21 waste assessments conducted in 13 cities across the Philippines, with the national figures produced by extrapolating (推断) from local results.More than half of nonrecyclable plastic analyzed in the survey came from sachets—small plastic packets often lined with aluminium or containing other materials that make them nonrecyclable.Small portions of products ranging from coffee to shampoo are often sold in sachets in the Philippines, and are seen as an affordable solution for consumers.But Grate said the popularity appeared to be more a result of what is available, with wealthier consumers simply buying multiple sachets. “If you go to the supermarkets, it's rare for you to be able to buy coffee in bigger containers; it's all in sachets,” he said.The survey is the first time an organization has tried to quantify (确定数量) sachet use, and the NGO hopes to pressure both the government and industry to take action on controlling singleuse plastic. The report found that where locallevel plastic bag bans have been put in place and strictly enforced, usage has dropped dramatically.It urged the government to “institute (建立;实行) a comprehensive national plastic bag ban that promotes reusable bags”. And it wants regulations on other singleuse plastic products and rules requiring companies to redesign products and packaging to minimize plastic waste.5.What's the purpose of GAIA in carrying out the survey?A.To show how shocking the amount of plastic waste can be.B.To get people and the government to know better about its final goal.C.To collect accurate numbers of plastic bags used in the wholecountry.D.To help make the government take measures to reduce plastic waste.6.Why can't many sachets be recycled?A.They are not made of only plastic.B.They won't last long after being buried.C.They cost less to be made than recycled.D.They can naturally change to a simpler chemical form.7.Which is a reason for the popularity of sachets in the Philippines?A.They can't be easily afforded. B.Big containers are rarely available.C.Shopping bags are often transparent. D.They are more environmentally friendly.8.How can companies help reduce plastic waste according to GAIA?A.By producing fewer products.B.By inventing new recycling machines.C.By donating money to recycling companies.D.By using as little plastic as possible on their products.Ⅲ.书面表达假如你是李华,你的好友Tom 来信说想了解你近期以来的学习生活近况,请你按照以下要点,给他回信:1.你的日常学习概况;2.你的奋斗目标; 3.你目前在学习中遇到的困难。

Caffeine occurs naturally in coffee, tea, and cocoa beans, which are used to make chocolate. But now food makers are adding it to many products, from potato chips to water.The U. S. government is especially worried about the problem. That's why the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is studying the health effects of caffeine on young people. Studies show that too much caffeine can make people nervous and unable to sleep. What's more, caffeine is habit-forming. Those who consume it regularly and stop suddenly may experience headaches and feel tired.One of the biggest concerns is the large amount of caffeine added to so-called energy drinks, like Red Bull. A 12-ounce can of cola has about 35 milligrams of caffeine. A similar serving of Red Bull contains more than three times that amount.The Institute of Medicine is also working on caffeine-safety measures. “Teenagers should not drink beverages that contain caffeine. They should be aware of caffeine's effects on health and on how the brain works. Take, for example, teenagers who consume caffeine to stay awake and study for a test. They will remember less of what they have just studied,” said Stallings, a member of the institute.Companies that make products with added caffeine claim they do not advertise them to teenagers. However, there is no law to stop teenagers from buying them. So the FDA needs to set limits on caffeine, especially in energy drinks. As for added caffeine in food, the government should just say no. If not, the amount of caffeine should be printed on food labels to remind consumers. The government must do that.Doctors say teenagers should avoid caffeine. If you need extra energy, try these natural boosters: eat right, exercise, and get plenty of sleep.1.What is the U.S. government particularly concerned about?A.The fact that coffee contains caffeine. B.The practice of adding caffeine to food.C.The measures of avoiding caffeine's effects. D.The practice of using caffeine to make chocolate.2.Why is Red Bull mentioned in Paragraph 3?A.To show us caffeine's effects on health. B.To tell us about teenagers' addiction to caffeine.C.To show a drink which contains much caffeine. D.To show people's concern about teenagers' health.3.What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?A.The measures of protecting teenagers from caffeine's effects.B.The process of the government's controlling the use of caffeine.C.The government's responsibility of taking care of teenagers.D.The risk of buying products containing caffeine nowadays.4.The author may agree that ________.A.headaches and feeling tired are common in teenagersB.food makers add much caffeine to many products nowC.caffeine is good and useful for teenagers' studyD.getting enough sleep can make people energeticBsleep. On_Friday_night,_you_slide_under_the_covers,_smiling_in_anticipation. Now you can finally catch up on your sleep.Except you can't. When you open your eyes on Saturday morning, it's still early. If this were a weekday, you'd be up before your alarm goes off. So what's the deal?We hate to break it to you, but you've pretty much done this to yourself. Your body is very good at recognizing patterns and adjusting accordingly. If you've got a nine-to-five job, you're getting up early five days a week. This effectively sets your body clock to wake you up at a certain time each day. You can shut off your alarm clock, but your body clock will just keep ticking.There's another reason that you probably don't want to think about: You're just not as young as you used to be. We need less sleep as we get older. Babies need between 16 and 20 hours. Teenagers should (but often don't) get nine hours a night. Younger and middle-aged adults need eight hours. In general, the older you get, the harder it is to snooze the day away.Even if you do manage to sleep in, you may never fully catch up on your sleep. If your body needs eight hours every night and you only get six or seven from Monday to Friday, you'd have to sleep an extra five to ten hours on Saturday to make it up. And experts say even that may not be enough.The bottom line: Sleep when you can, and enjoy those extra weekend morning hours. Who doesn't want a longer weekend?5.What does the underlined sentence mean in Paragraph 1?A.You know that you will oversleep on Saturday morning.B.You needn't get up early on Saturday morning, so you will have a better sleep.C.Since you don't work on Saturday, you needn't go to bed as usual.D.You know that even though you needn't get up early on Saturday morning, you will wake as usual.6.What can we learn from Paragraph 3 ?A.If you have a nine-to-five job, you are likely to develop a flexible body clock.B.Once you have set your body clock, it is not easy to change it.C.The author will not break the pattern, but you will do it yourself.D.If you adjust your body clock accordingly, you are healthy.7.Which of the following is the reason why you can't sleep in on weekends?A.You are not willing to admit that you are old. B.You need to relax on weekends.C.Your body clock still works on weekends. D.You can never get enough sleep.8.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.Why Can't I Sleep in on Weekends Anymore? B.Why Can't I Catch up on My Sleep?C.How to Turn off My Body Clock on Saturdays? D.How to Get More Sleep on Saturday Mornings?黄金考点参考答案Ⅰ.单句改错(定语从句和状语从句)1.答案与解析:where→that/which先行词place指物,且关系词在从句中作主语,定语从句用that或which 引导,故把where改成that或which。
