It’s like this…[2] When you’re going to have a baby, it’s likeplanning an extraordinary vacation trip toItaly. You buy a bunch of guidebooks and make wonderful plans: the Coloseum①, the Michelangelo② David, the gondolas③in Venice, etc. You may learn some handy phrases in Italian. It’s all very exciting.[3] After months of eager expectation, the day finally arrives. You pack your bags and off you go. Several hours later, the plane lands. The airhostess comes in and says, “We lcome to the Netherlands.”[4] “The Netherlands?!” you say. “What do you mean, the Netherlands?? I signed up for Italy! I’m supposed to be in Italy. All my life I’ve dreamed of going to Italy.”[5] But there’s been a change in the flight plan. They’ve la nded in the Netherlands and there you must stay.[6] The important thing is that they haven’t taken you to a horrible, awful, dirty place, full of diseases. It’s just a different place.[7] So you must go out and buy new guidebooks. And you must learn a whole new language. And you will meet a whole new group of people you would never have met.[8] It’s just a place. It’s slower paced than Italy, less flashy than Italy. But after you’ve been there for a while and you catch your breath, you look around and you begin to notice that the Netherlands has ①②(1475~1564)Italian artist and architect ③④⑤⑥(1606~1669)Dutch painterwindmills④…and the Netherlands hastulips⑤. The Netherlands even hasRembrandts⑥.[9] But everyone you know is busy comingand going from Italy and they’re all sayingwhat a wonderful time they had there. And forthe rest of your life, you will say, “Yes, that’swhere I was supposed to go. That’s what I hadplanned.[10] And the pain of that will never, ever, evergo away because the loss of that dream is avery, very significant loss.[11] But if you spend your life regretting thefact that you didn’t get to Italy, you may neverbe free to enjoy the very special, the verylovely things about the Netherlands.1. The author compares her motherhood to ________.A.her involvement in traveling abroadB.her journey to an unplanned destinationC.her dream of enjoying beautiful sceneryD.her experience with an unfamiliar task2.

Android phones will be used to sense earthquakes around the world and may one day be able to provide global warnings, with the first mass alert system coming into use on August 11 in California, a search engine company announced.The company, which helped develop Android, worked with California and the United States Geological Survey to build the quake alerts into all phones that run the common mobile operating system. Android users who have enabled location services and are near a quake of magnitude 4.5 or greater will receive a full-screen earthquake warning telling them to seek cover. The screen also will provide estimates of the quake’s magnitude and distance from the user. Depending on their distance from a quake, people could get several seconds or perhaps a minute of warning.Users won’t need to download California’s MyShake app in order to receive the alerts. That application, developed by the University of California, Berkeley and launched last year, has been downloaded by only about 1 million o f California’s 40 million residents. By contrast, many millions of people own Android phones.“This announcement means that California’s world-class earthquake early warning system will be a standard function on every Android phone—giving millions of people precious seconds to seek cover when the big one hits,” Gov Gavin Newsom said. The iPhone users won’t receive the alerts through Apple’s operating system, but they can download the MyShake app.Also, the company announced that Android phones would begin detecting earthquakes from around the world through their motion-sensing accelerometers. “Your Android phone can be a mini-seismometer(微型地震仪), joining millions of other Android phones there to form the world’s largest earthquake detection network,” accord ing to the company. More than 2 billion devices run the Android operating system. Hundreds of millions of people live in earthquake-prone areas. But many countries lack the resources to build detection and alert systems, the company said. The information will be used at first to provide fast and accurate information on the search engine. But the company said it could begin sending out earthquake alerts next year.1. If an earthquake hits the US, who won`t receive the earthquake warning?A.Android users who haven’t downloaded the MyShake app.B.The iPhone users who have downloaded the MyShake app.C.Android users who have downloaded the MyShake app.D.The iPhone users who haven`t downloaded the MyShake app.2. What can we learn from the text?A.The earthquake early warning system will be of great help.B.The company has sent out earthquake alerts since last year.C.Millions of people have downloaded the MyShake app.D.Over 2 billion devices run the Apple operating system.3. What will globalize the earthquake detection network?A.New technology developed by the B.The large number of Android phone users.company.C.The newly developed MyShake app. D.Motion-sensing accelerometers.4. What is the author`s purpose of writing the text?A.To promote Android phones.B.To share a new MyShake app.C.To introduce a new function of Android phones.D.To make a search engine company known to the world.4. Beavers(海狸), like humans, change their surroundings to fit their needs. Known as nature’s engineers, they tear trees down to build homes to live in and dams to raise water levels for protection from enemies. Dams also slow water’s flow while blocking sediment(沉积物)that would otherwise flow downstream. The resulting wetlands often attract wildlife diversity where none had existed. There are challenges, though. Beaver dams sometimes cause flooding, and most people prefer trees alive and upright.Communities face a delicate balancing act, learning to coexist with beavers. Last winter, many people enjoying Winston Path became beaver fans as one furry family transformed Swallow Pond into an oasis for birds, frogs, turtles and deer.Yet such activity caused concern. As beavers worked, they raised water levels about five feet. The increased depth allows beavers to survive underwater if the pond ices over. But county officials were concerned about how higher water would affect the soil bank supporting Winston Path.To find a good balance between protecting the path and the beavers, the county introduced a“ beaver baffle”— a pond leveler.Beavers often rush to fill holes in their dams.Baffles stabilize water levels by creating a hidden exit for high water to escape through the dam, unnoticed by the beavers. People love the beavers but they also love the mature trees. Recently, Catherine Jones,18, organized a tree-caging event — putting wire cloth around large tree trunks to discourage beavers from biting them. It also protects people from injury due to random trees falling.“We cover the trees we don’t want them to eat, while planting periodically others they like,“said Jones.“We need-to learn to give up a little of our wants to share the Earth’s resources.”Swallow Pond’s 2023 project will restore proper water depth and improve wildlife habitat without creating problems for the path. The balancing act continues.1. What is the first paragraph mainly about?A.Where beavers’ favorite surroundings are.B.What effects beavers have on their habitat.C.Why beavers are called nature’s engineers.D.How beavers help attract wildlife diversity.2. Why did the beaver family’s activity cause concern?A.Swallow Pond would flood often.B.Sediment would flow downstream.C.The popular path might be damaged.D.Beavers might have to live underwater.3. What do the underlined words“beaver baffle”refer to in paragraph 4?A.A block to keep beavers away. B.A tool to fix holes in the dams.C.A device to maintain water level. D.A material to protect the soil bank.4. What is the theme of Swallow Pond’s 2023 project?A.Biological diversity. B.Harmonious coexistence.C.Prevention of natural disasters. D.Preservation of wildlife habitat.5. The possibility of being killed on a single airline flight is one in 4.7 million. Here are some lifesaving habits you are supposed to remember every time you fly.Your carry-on bagThe safest thing to do with your carry-on is leave it on the plane. Flight crews ask you to keep your luggage clear of the aisles (通道) for a reason. 1 With as few as 90 seconds to evacuate (撤离) a burning place, the precious time spent reaching for luggage could be a life and death decision for someone.Your seat2 The safest place to sit on a plane is behind the wings. A Popular Mechanics study of 20 commercial jet crashes with both fatalities (死亡) and survivors found that passengers seated in the rear cabin (behind the wings) had a 69 percent chance of survival, compared with just 49 percent for those in first class.During a crashThe first thing you should do during a crash is put on the oxygen mask the minute it drops.During a loss of cabin pressure, the fall in oxygen can knock you unconscious in as little as 20 seconds. 3 You can’t help if you can’t breathe.Listen to your flight attendants. Most importantly, through any emergency, be nice to the flight attendant.What to wear4 The US National Transportation Safety Board says that 68 percent of plane crash fatalities occur in post-crash fires, not in the initial impact.Fortunately, here’s what you can plan for days in advance while you pack your suitcase: on the day you’re flying, avoid wearing synthetic fibers like polyester and nylon. Instead, choose naturalmaterials like cotton or wool. It’s also a good idea to wear long pants (like jeans) and a long-sleeved shirt for extra protection from flames and sharp objects. 5Sippers might seem like a good idea for braving airport security, but in the chaos of a crash or evacuation, they’ll only slow you down.6.

They are totally separated, mixing with 36 . As they drive past 37 they keep their eyes looking away and make no sign of acceptance. The only fame they have is making a nuisance of themselves to the local police stationby 38 music played too loud, dogs barking more than once a day and any other pretty 39 gripe (把柄).On moving into this neighborhood, I was 40 of these two but decided I would make up my own mind. This proved quite a 41 to me as more than once either the mother or the daughter would knock on my door and blast (猛烈抨击) me with some 42 or other.I 43 answered politely and made sure I 44 as they went past my place and also made the effort now and then to make a kind remark about their garden or pets.Time passed and in October, as part of the kindness rock give (送爱心石活动), Maureen and I 45 to place a kindness rock in their garden. Their 46 remained unchanged, however, and I continued to be as friendly as possible. During the Easter give, we decided once again to 47 these two unhappy ladies to our list and left a packet of cookies on their 48 . Imagine my 49 when two days later they 50 at my gate and jokingly said they are considering hanging their Christmas stockings on their gate, and they 51 me a bunch of flowers!So, my fellow gifters , do not 52 on your random(随意的) gifts of kindness.

Its look and feel are only slightly improved, but a faster network loads Web pages more quickly , true GPS functionality allows it to easily find places nearby , and the new $199 price(down from $400) makes it an affordable luxury.Before deciding whether to buy, however , make sure you can actually take advantage of the iPhone 3G’s high-speed data network. 3G stands for third-generation , which in non-geek speak translates to Web pages and mail messages that, ideally, load about three times faster than on the original iPhone. Even better, 3G coverage enables you to make a phone call and surf the Web at the same time . That’s great, if you live or work in a place where the 3G network of AT&T(美国电话电报公司)(the sole wireless carr ier of the iPhone) is active. That’s not so great in cities like New York whereAT&T’s cellular(电台通讯网) coverage is awful. As one of my colleagues in New York City, who bought the original iPhone , commented , “It’s just a toy . You can’t make phone calls o n it, so I carry my Verizon phone with me all the time.”The real fun begins when you tap on the icon(计算机图标)called “Apple Store” and start browsing (浏览) the hundreds of add-on applications that have been developed just for the iPhone. You will find tons of games (I like JirboBreak , a free game inspired by the Atari classic Breakout ) and mobile version of popular websites like Pandora , Facebook , MySpace and the New York Times . Most apps will cost you , but the vast majority are $9.99 or less. The apps w ork on the old iPhone too, but you’ll enjoy them a lot more on the iPhone 3G because many of the programs , including Yelp(local business reviews ), Whrrl (mobile social networking) and UrbanSpoon(restaurant reviews), use you exact location --- provided by the iPhone 3G’s GPS chip --- to make recommendations. The apps also load much faster over the 3G network.【小题1】. The new iPhone 3G has following features except that _____.A.it looks and feels betterB.it has a faster networkC.it is easy to locate a placeD.it is too expensive for people to buy【小题2】.Why does one of my colleagues carry Verizon phone with him all the time? A.Because iPhone 3G is just a toy.B.Because he prefers Verizon phone better .C.Because AT&T’s cellular coverage is terrible there.D.Because Verizon phone enables him make a phone call and surf the Web at the same time.【小题3】. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage ? A.App Store will offer you great fun .B.Many apps have been developed for the iPhone.C.Most apps are very expensive.D.Pandora , Facebook, MySpace and the New York Times are popular websites. 【小题4】. From the passage we know that the attitude of the author toward iPhone 3G is ____.A.doubtfulB.appreciateC.optimisticD.pessimistic8.Most parents in China hope his single children will have a happy future, so they are very strictin their children. So do teachers! Many children are given so much homework that they hadhardly any spare time have sports. The children are forbidden to do nothing but study. Nowonder so many children are tiring of lessons. I believe many people have already read this kindof news in newspapers or magazines. Shouldn’t we draw lesson from those events? Now thegovernment is carrying out of a plan to solve these education problem.9.. _____ you may have, you should gather your courage to face the challenge. A.However a serious problemB.What a serious problemC.However serious a problemD.What a serious problem10.. --- My son is addicted to drugs. He is n’t hopeless, is he?--- Yes, ______ he mends his way and starts all over.A.ifB.whenC.even ifD.unless11.People often talk as if shyness is a disease or mental condition that can be cured. I prefer to think of it as an emotional disability. It’s something we are born with and something we carry with us in our entire lives. There are too many people, however, who seem to be determined to find some way of doing away with their shyness. In my opinion, it’s a waste of time. I don’t mean that we should do nothing about it; quite the contrary, I think we need to separate the basic fact of shyness from our ability to take part in a social environment.Look at one of the most famous shy people of them all, Johnny Carson. This man is painfully shy, yet for decades he made a living talking and associating with different people every night, in front of a national audience. Carson has never done away with his shyness, but he has successfully found a way to deal with it to the extent that he could be, not just a talk show host, but a legend (传奇) among talk show hosts. Look also at Sally Fields, who has recently admitted her problem with shyness. This is a woman who has appeared in many films, TV shows and interviews, yet in her early years she was so shy that she turned down a lunch invitation from Jane Fonda because she was terribly afraid of meeting her.I guess that our shyness is there because each of us is born with some insecurity(不安全感) and this insecurity prevents us from reading out to others the way people with a more open personality do. As we grow up and become adults, we allow our social skills to grow and develop. But we are still stuck in kindergarten or elementary school or wherever it was when our shyness took root in our soul.【小题1】. In the author’s view, shyness can be explained as _________.A.a disease that can be easily curedB.a not very normal mental conditionC.an emotional disabilityD.something we pick up after birth【小题2】. The author believes it’s a waste of time to ____________A.develop a healthy personalityB.talk with as many people as possibleC.study where shyness comes fromD.look for ways to do away with one’s shyness【小题3】. Which of the following is TRUE of Johnny Carson?A.He dared to speak in front of a national audience.B.He did away with his shyness carefully.C.He was described as a hero in some legend books.D.He failed to become a good talk show host.【小题4】. The author thinks that our shyness is there because _______A.we are not open enoughB.we don’t feel safe at heartC.we try to reach out to others all the timeD.we lack certain social skills12.. --- I know this is the latest type but it is second ---hand.. $20---that’s my last offer. --- Ok. It’s a(n)_______.A.businessB.tradeC.agreementD.deal13.. I thought of him as my best friend until he ______ to the boss.A.gave me offB.gave me outC.gave me awayD.gave me up14.For years we have been told that encouraging a child’s self-respect is important to his or her success in life. But child experts are now learning that too much praise can lead to the opposite effect,Praise-aholic kidswho expect it at every turn may become teens who seek the same kind of approval from their friends when asked if they want to go in the backseat of the car.The implication (含义) of saying “You are the prettiest girl in class,” or talking about the goals she scored but not her overall( 全面的) efforts, is that you love her only when she looks the best, scores the highest, achieves the most. And this carries over to the classroom.Social psychologist Carol Dweck, PhD, tested the effects of overpraise on 400 fifth grades while she was at Columbia University. She found that kids praised for “trying hard” did better on the tests and were more likely to take on difficult assignments than those praised for being “smart”.“ Praising attributes (品质) or abilities makes a false promise that success will come to you because you have that quality, and it devalues efforts, so children are afraid to take on challenges, ” says Dweck, now at Stanford University. “They figure they’d better quit while they’ re ahead.”【小题1】The underlined words “ Praise-aholic kids” refer to kids who are _______.A. tired of being praisedB. worthy of being praisedC. very proud of being praisedD extremely fond of being praised.【小题2】. The author quoted (引用) Dr. Dweck’s words in the last paragraph in order to make the article ______.A.better-knownB.better-organizedC.more believableD.more interesting【小题3】. We can infer from the passage that ____________.A.praise for efforts should be more encouragedB.praise for results works better than praise for effortsC.praising a child’s achievements benefits his or her success in life.D.praising a child’s abilities encourages him or her to take on challenges15.When 7-year-old Warren Buffet said “ I will be the richest man one day”, his friends made fun of his “daydreaming”. But ever since then the little boy has set about learning how to make money, selling drinks, delivering newspapers and buying stocks. He had already earned $ 9,000 ( equal to $ 90,000 today) by the time he graduated from high school and became a millionaire at 32.And this month the 77-year- old, who earned his fortune by making a lot of great investment in the stock market, made his childhood dream come true. With a fortune of $ 62billion, Buffet has risen to be the world’s richest man accordingto Forbes Magazine.Born in 1930, Buffet, the only son of a stockbroker, started on achieving hisbillion-dollar dream at an early age and was always ready to think outside the box to develop his business. At 8 he went to golf courses collecting and selling used balls.At 11 when he sold soda pop door to door with a friend, the pair collected lids on the streets to judge which flavor was the most popular.As a paper boy during high school, Buffet delivered two rival (竞争对手的)papers, so that even when customers canceled one of the subscriptions, he could still make a profit from the other. With his paper delivery savings, Buffet bought 162,000 square meters of farmland and collect rent.Young Buffet stepped into the stock market at 11 but earned only $ 5. The experience taught him one of the virtues (品质) in investing: patience.After graduating from university, Buffet started his venture with stocks with his childhood earnings and money from friends. He researched the stocks and just bought those of solid companies that were undervalued and inexpensive at the time. By sticking to companies such as American Express and Coca-cola, Buffet has become rich.“Learning is important to Buffet’s success. He is a learning machine who can spend his entire day reading. He keeps learning, from books, street smarts and investigation, from both success and failure. In this way, he finally over achieved his aptitude ( 才能) ,” said Charlie Munger, his long-time business partner.【小题1】Which of the following questions has NOT been discussed in the selection?A.What is Buffet’s approach to investing.B.How do other people view Buffet.C.How has Buffet handled hardships in his life.D.How did Buffet make a fortune and realize his dream.【小题2】With the example of delivering two rival papers in high school, the author intends to tell us that Buffet______.A.had a good sense of businessB.was a good paper boyC.was hard to deal with businessD.knew anything but how to make money【小题3】.

With her latest book, Unlawful Orders, a biography, she captures American history.Unlawful Orders tells the story of James Williams (1919-2016), a doctor who served with the Tuskegee Airmen, the first Black military pilots, during World War II. While at the Freeman Airfield base in Iowa, he stood up to racial unfair practices through peaceful protest, which pushed the government to make some changes in the US army.Binns lives in Chicago, Illinois, where she grew up and where most of her stories took place. In 2008, she wrote several books for young readers. She found her current book’s subject while researching James’s mother, Clara Williams, for another project. James had also lived in Chicago, in a neighborhood not far from where Binns grew up, but she hadn’t heard about him. “I found myself wondering if I ever walked past him on the street and didn’t realize I was in the presence of greatness,” Binns told The Week Junior. She said she would have loved to have him as a role model during her childhood.That’s one reason why she wrote Unlawful Orders, she said — for children who need a hero, someone who looks ordinary but did extraordinary things through quiet but persistent actions.4.What can be known about James Williams?A.He once served as an American pilot.B.He fought for equal rights for the black people.C.He lived in the same neighborhood with Binns.D.He got the support from American government.5.Which of the following words can best replace the underlined words in Paragraph 2?

At the same time, loneliness may be a symptom of another social or psychological problem, such as chronic depression.Many people experience loneliness for the first time when they are left alone as infants. It is also a very common, though normally temporary, consequence of a breakup, divorce, or loss of any important long-term relationship. In these cases, it may result both from the loss of a specific person and from the withdrawal from social circles caused by the event or the associated sadness.The loss of a significant person in one’s life will typically start a sadness response; in this situation, one might feel lonely, even while in the company of others. Loneliness may also occur after the birth of a child, after marriage, or following any other socially disruptive event, such as moving from one’s home town into an unfamiliar community leading to homesickness. Loneliness can occur within unstable marriages or other close relationships in a similar nature, in which feelings present may include anger or bitterness, or in which the feeling of love cannot be given or received.Loneliness may represent a dysfunction of communication, and can also result from places with low population densities in which there are comparatively few people to interact with. Sometimes, loneliness is capable of spreading like a disease. When one person in a group begins to feel lonely, this feeling can spread to others, increasing everybody’s risk for feelings of loneliness. People can feel lonely when they’re surrounded by other lonely people. 8.What is the text mainly about?C.The reasons for loneliness.D.The importance of mental health. 9.Which of the following may not cause loneliness?A.The regular attendance at social events.B.The physical absence of meaningful people.C.The breakup of a marriage.D.The lack of friendship relations. 10.The underlined phrase “disruptive event” in paragraph 3 refer to things that ______. A.bring to a family extra unexpected financial burdensB.prevent one’s life from continuing in a normal wayC.make people too excited to control their feelingsD.replace the feeling of love with anger and bitterness11.What can we learn about loneliness from the last paragraph?A.Loneliness can have a certain social effect.B.Loneliness won’t occur in crowded places.C.Loneliness is a disease spreading among people.D.Loneliness can be the result of losing important relation.Organic food, grown without artificial chemicals, is increasingly popular nowadays. Consumers have been willing to pay up to twice as much for goods with organic labels. However, if you think paying a little more for organic food gets you a more nutritious and safer product, you might want to save your money. A study led by researchers at Stanford University says that organic products aren't necessarily more nutritious, and they’re no less likely to suffer from disease-causing bacteria, either.The latest results, published in the Annuals of Internal Medicine, suggest that buyers may be wasting their money. “We did not find strong evidence that organic food is more nutritious or healthier,” says Dr. Crystal Smith-Spangler from Stanford. “So, consumers shouldn’t assume that one type of food has a lower risk or is safer. ”For their new study, Smith-Spangler and her colleagues conducted a review of two categories of research, including 17 studies that compared health outcomes between consumers of organic against traditional food products, and 223 studies that analyzed the nutritional content of the foods, including key vitamins, minerals and fats.While the researchers found little difference in nutritional content, they did find thatNeither organic nor traditional foods showed levels of chemicals high enough to go beyond food safety standards. And both organic and traditional meats, such as chicken and pork, were equally likely to be harmed by bacteria at very low rates. The researchers did find that organic milk and chicken contained higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids, a healthy fat also found in fish that can reduce the risk of heart disease. However, these nutritional differences were too small, and the researchers were unwilling to make much of them until further studies confirm the trends.Organic food is produced with fewer chemicals and more natural-growing practices, but that doesn't always translate into a more nutritious or healthier product. The U.S. Department of Agriculture(USDA) states that “whether you buy organic food or not, finding the freshest foods available may have the biggest effect on taste.” Fresh food is at least as good as anything marketed as organic.12.What does the new research question?A.Whether organic food should replace traditional food.B.Whether organic food has been overpriced by farmers.C.Whether organic food is grown with less harmful chemicals.D.Whether organic food is really more nutritious and healthier.13.What did Smith-Spangler and her colleagues find?A.Organic food could reduce the risk of heart disease.B.Traditional food was grown with more natural methods.C.Both organic and traditional food they examined were safe.D.There was not a presence of any forms of bacteria in organic food.14.Which of the following is relatively healthier according to the passage?A.Organic chicken and pork.B.Organic milk and chicken. C.Traditional chicken and pork.D.Traditional fruit and vegetables. 15.What is the author’s attitude toward organic food?A.Doubtful.B.Neutral.C.Unconcerned.D.Approving.二、七选五contribute to fatness. Then how do you make choices? If you’re interested in living a richer, fuller life, there is a foundation which you can base all your decisions on, so that you canevery parent, mate, friend, teacher, businessman, and politician truly did their best to choose what’s best for all in every decision they made, we would certainly live in a more caring, supportive world.“But how do I know what is really best?” you might ask. The answer is simple. It doesn’t matter. 18 What matters is that whatever decision you make, you should choose with a sincere desire for what’s best for all. Even if it later turns out that you have made a bad choice, there’s no need for guilt (愧疚). With a clear heart, you may stay clear and open. 19 Probably next time you’ll achieve a satisfactory outcome.However, choosing what’s best does not mean you have to always sacrifice (牺牲) yourself for others. It’s typical of a mother to sacrifice for her kids. However, an overly tired mother may get annoyed easily. 20 Yet in the long run, it can help her to be a better mother to her children. So as you move through each day of your lives, remember to take account of yourselves as you choose what’s best.A.This may make you feel guilty about your choice.B.A working mother can’t balance career and family.C.This foundation is to choose based on what’s best.D.Some rest for this mother might seem not selfless.E.This then allows you to more easily learn from your mistakes.F.And every choice you make, however big or small, affects you in some way.G.What matters is not the choice you make, but the intention behind your choice.三、完形填空As the Chinese saying goes, a seed can change the world; a variety can benefit a nation.Zhang Daorong, who has spent the last 26 years 21 13 new varieties of wheat and contributing to national food security, has done both.

She soon realized she had the talent and the willpower to compete. She also knew she would have to train full-time, which meant not being able to work to help support her family. But she was confident that she could bring home prize money.Jacqueline traveled to China to compete in the Zhenkai marathon knowing she had a good shot at winning the race, but more importantly, the $ 10,000 prize that went with it. She was leading the women’s division when a male runner arrived at the water station at the 20-kilometer mark. The man was running at a good pace but had trouble drinking water because a birth disability had left him without hands, and he struggled to drink from the slippery plastic bottles. But any assistance from fans or race officials would result in his disqualification (取消资格). Jacqueline noticed the man and immediately knew that he needed help. She grabbed a water bottle and helped him get the water his body needed to complete the race. Then she ran at his pace with the bottle and helped him drink while they ran along.Runner after runner passed Jacqueline. Her hopes of winning were getting lost in the crowd of runners ahead of her. With only 4 kilometers left in the race, and it was certain that her new friend would now finish. Jacqueline picked up her pace. Her long step kicked in, and she wove through her competitors to finish second.That day, Jacqueline missed out on first place, but she finished with something more important: her good nature. When asked about the bigger cash prize, she said that money isn’t everything.

These goods often end up in landfills, where the chemicals inside them may be a danger to the environment. Electronics can contain harmful materials. If these materials get into the ground or water, the pollution can cause serious problems. Most electronics require metals. These metals must be mined from the Earth. Often the mining process creates serious pollution.A group known as Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Forum is trying to make people more aware of the problems of e-waste. Recently, the WEEE Forum asked researchers from the United Nations (UN) to study a kind of e-waste that’s often not noticed because people don’t consider the goods to be electronics. The WEEE Forum calls this kind“unable-to-be-seen” e-waste.The UN study shows that about 1/6 of all e-waste is “unable-to-be-seen”. Though it’s “unable-to-be-seen”, it’s certainly not a small amount. The “unable-to-be-seen” e-waste weighs about 9 billion kilograms. The WEEE Forum says that if this e-waste were put into 40-ton trucks and the trucks were then lined up, the line of trucks would be about 5,630 kilometers long.The surprising kind leading the“unable-to-be-seen” e-waste group was toys. Worldwide,roughly 7.3 billion electronic toys are thrown away each year. These include goods like car racing sets, electric trains, and musical toys. They also include toys with electronic parts, like dolls that speak or games with electronic times. In all, toys make up about 35% of“unable-to-be-seen”e-waste. But the problem is far larger than just toys. The report also shows that other everyday goods like home alarms, smoke alarms, power tools, and computer cables (电缆) are also big sources of“unable-to-be-seen” e-waste.The WEEE Forum is hoping that as more people and governments become aware of e-waste, they will make a much greater effort to make sure electronics get reused.8.What is paragraph 1 mainly about?A.The amount of electronics.B.The development of electronics.C.The ways of reusing electronics.D.The background of e-pollution.9.What causes some e-waste often unnoticed?A.People’s interest in electronics’ character.B.People’s impression on electronics’ package.C.People’s ignorance of some electronics.D.People’s struggle to adapt to electronics.10.How is paragraph 3 developed?A.By referring to study results.B.By providing examples.C.By making a summary.D.By making a comparison.11.Which of the following is the WEEE Forum’s solution to e-waste?A.Designing advanced electronics.B.Reusing electronics.C.Stopping giving away electronics.D.Reducing electronics’ production.In the past several years, the use of social media has grown in a way that no one could have guessed. It has turned some teenagers into celebrities and turned the famous into the infamous overnightA key feature of social media, however, is its volatility. Trends come and go, disappearing almost as quickly as they appeared.

And Douyin had more than 300 million domestic (国内的) monthly active users in June at home, CNBC said.Why are these short videos—which are rarely longer than a few minutes—so popular? Jiang Yige.

Liza Koshy, a user of the U.S. app Musically who has over 2 million followers, said, “The sense of community that users of short video apps get is another appealing feature.”Live streaming is a feature of our social media life that now seems as natural as sunrise. It’s a pretty neat idea: You can watch anyone. anywhere. live. However. China has taken live streaming to a whole new level. In China. more than 100 million viewers monthly watch a live streaming video. Forbes thought that a number of factors had led to the popularity of live streams. Among them is viewers’ ability to interact with unknown names.However, the quick development of social media may be having side effects too, Fake news is one serious problem it causes, Materials shared on these platforms are often not checked for accuracy. The most basic content can be false and can mislead users one way or another. We use social media all the time; that doesn’t mean that we understand the influence it is having on us. We should be mindful of both the time we spend on it and its impact on our minds.12.What does the underlined word ”volatility“ in paragraph 2 possibly mean?A.Being changeable.B.Being famous.C.Being promising.D.Being popular.13.According to Liza Koshy, why are short videos very popular?A.They are very cheap.B.They help people kill time.C.They provide a sense of community.D.They allow people to express themselves. 14.What do we know about social media?A.The information from social media is totally reliable.B.When it comes to social media, people only know short videos.C.People can’t communicate with each other without social media.D.There is still much room for social media to make improvement.15.What is the author’s attitude to the quick development of social media?A.Objective.B.Subjective.C.Supportive.D.Negative.Leading a vegan(素食者)lifestyle involves making wise choices to avoid animal products.

2020-2021学年辽宁沈阳第二中学高一下期中英语试卷学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读选择What would you do if you were a fifth grader facing a huge homework load every night,and you found out that there was a machine that would do all the work for you? That’s the situation presented to Sam,Kelsey,Judy and Brenton in Dan Gunman’s entertaining new book for young readers,The Homework Machine.The four children.all fifth graders in Miss Rasmussen’s class at Grand Canyon School,are as different as any other 11 year-old children could be,but they have one thing in common--all are somewhat separated from their classmates. Sam is a newcomer and has had his share of school trouble before; Kelsey quietly carries her pain at losing her father;Judy’s sense of justice always annoys others;and Brenton---well,he is another story entirely.Brenton is the smartest child in the school, so smart that even his parents and teachers have trouble keeping up with him.When Brenton and his three classmates are put into the same study group by their teacher,the others discover that Brenton has made a time-saving gadget(装置)to do his homework for him.While the boy is perfectly able to do the homework himself,Sam,Kelsey and Judy could use the help.Having perfect grades is something new for these three,and as they meet every day to “do homework”,they find that they’re learning a lot about each other.Such a good thing can't last though,and when a secret man starts trying to get in touch with them,the children begin to get nervous. Soo n there’s an even more frightening problem--why can’t the Homework Machine be turned off?Gunman is a gifted writer who has written dozens of children’s books,each with a funny and impressing tale that should be equally liked by boys and girls.1.What type of text is it?A.A book review.B.A school report.C.A science story.D.A student’s diary.2.What is one common thing that all four children have to deal with at school? A.Getting along with classmates.B.Overcoming sad feelings.C.Following school rules.D.Keeping good grades.3.What can we learn about Brenton?A.He is strange and nervous.B.He is clever and helpful.C.He is brave and special.D.He is quiet and smart.4.Why did the children get frightened?A.They had no idea how to stop the machine.B.They lost the connection with each other.C.They were questioned by a strange man.D.They were tracked down by the police.Last Saturday on the way to the mall, two children, a boy and a girl, came running towards me with bottles on their hands, asking if I wanted bottled water. It was a surprising gesture. I was wondering if they were doing fund-raising. I knelt and asked them where their parents were and how much a bottle of water cost. Then two adult women came up to me explaining what the children were doing. “We are teaching the children to give without anything in return. We are teaching people to accept without giving in return. ”Two mothers had bought bottled water and placed a sticker(小贴纸)on all bottles with five different quotes(引述):1. Smile at everyone. You’ll never know when someone may need it.2. If Plan A does not work, there are 25 more letters in the alphabets.3. Have a thirst for life. Every day is filled with possibilities.4. In your thirst for knowledge, be sure you don’t drown in all the information.5. Dig your well before you’re thirsty.The bottle I have has quoted No.5. A sudden change of attitude opened up between me, the mothers and the children. We are no longer strangers to each other. We were having such a great time chatting and I ended up helping them give away the rest of the bottled water.One young lady was so thankful that she happily accepted the water and said it was the best thing that happened to her all day since she had a bad day at work. A man refused and walked a way saying “no thanks”. A couple kept on bowing to us in gratitude. When it was all done, the children and I were giving each other high-five. It was so much fun. I think I had morefun doing this than the mothers and the children.5.How did the author feel when he was offered bottled water?A.Embarrassed B.SurprisedC.Excited D.Disappointed6.Different quotes were placed on the bottles to ________.A.inspire others to think positively.B.show how rich and colorful our life is.C.encourage people to get more bottled water.D.explain why at times abandonment is necessary facing trouble.7.What did the author do after chatting with them?A.Buy the rest of the bottled water.B.Give away some money for charity.C.Decide to meet with them regularly.D.Join them in being kind to strangers.8.What do we know from the last paragraph?A.Children had more fun from this than adults.B.This random act of kindness is warmly welcomed.C.People responded quite differently to this activity.D.The author learned a lot from this random act of kindness.New research shows how kids’ brains reorganize as they learn math.All the time you spent memorizing multiplication tables(乘法表)may have made you a better mathematician, according to a new study. A team of scientists from Stanford University, in California, have shown how the brain reorganizes itself as kids learn math.After a certain amount of time spent practicing math, kids can put away the calculator(计算器). They don’t even need to count on their fingers. They simply know th e answers to subtraction(减法), addition, and multiplication facts. The quicker kids can recall basic math facts, the easier it is for them to solve more complicated math problems.The Stanford University researchers observed the brain activity of 28 students aged 7to 9 for the study. They took scans of the students’ brains as the students solved math calculations without the help of a calculator, pen or paper. A calculation—three plus four equals seven, for example—flashed on a screen. The students pushed a button to say if the answer was right orwrong. The scientists also recorded the response speed, and what parts of the brain became active as the kids pushed the button.These observations showed a process called fact retrieval(事实检索). Rather than using their fingers to count, or writing out answers on a piece of paper, the students pulled the answers from memory. It’s as if the answers to basic math problems are kept in a long-term storage area in the brain, which was built from repetition. “Experience really does matter,” said Dr. Kathy Mann Koepeke.Children make the shift(转换)from counting to fact retrieval when they are 8 to 9 years old, the study shows. This is the time when most students are learning basic addition and subtraction. When kids have basic math facts memorized, the brain has more free space to learn more complicated math.This process has benefits for the future. The study shows as kids grow older, their answers rely more on memory and become quicker and more accurate. Less brain activity is devoted to counting. Some children make this shift quicker than others.9.What did the researchers do when students worked out the given problems?A.They recorded the students’ brain activities.B.They pushed a button linked to the students.C.They noticed whether they used a calculator.D.They found out who responded most quickly.10.Fact retrieval is a process when the students________.A.calculate answers using pensB.use their fingers to count outC.repeat the answers they rememberD.find the answers from their memory11.What plays a key role in solving a math problem?A.Intelligence B.ExperienceC.Learning method D.Constant practice12.What happens to kids when they are 8 to 9 years old?A.Their brains are more active than before.B.They depend on fact retrieval for answers.C.They become more interested in learning math.D.They work out complicated problems more quickly.Perhaps you think you could easily add to your happiness with more money. Strange as it may seem, if you’re unsatisfied, the issue i s not a lack of means to meet your desires but a lack of desires—not that you cannot satisfy your tastes but that you don’t have enough tastes.Real riches consist of well-developed and hearty capacities(能力)to enjoy life. Most people are already flooded with things. They eat, wear, go and talk toomuch._________________________________________.Your house of life ought to be a mansion(豪宅), a royal palace. Every new taste, every additional interest, every fresh enthusiasm adds a room. Here are several rooms your house of life should have.Art should be a desire for you to develop simply because the world is full of beautiful things. If you only understood how to enjoy them and feed your spirit on them, they would make you as happy as to find plenty of ham and eggs when you’re hungry.Literature, classic literature, is a beautiful, richly furnished room where you might find many an hour of rest and refreshment. To gain that love would go toward making you a rich person, for a rich person is not someone who has a library but who likes a library.Music like Mozart’s and Bach’s shouldn’t be absent. Real riches are of the spirit. And when you’ve brought that spirit up to where classical music feeds it and makes you a little drunk, you have increased your thrills and bettered them. And life is a matter of thrills.Whatever rooms you might add to your house of life, the secret of enjoying life is to keep adding.13.The author intends to tell us that________.A.true happiness lies in achieving wealth by fair meansB.big houses are people’s most valued possessionsC.big houses can in a sense bring richness of lifeD.true happiness comes from spiritual riches14.The underlined sentence in the second paragraph probably implies that________. A.however materially rich, they never seem to be satisfiedB.however materially rich, they remain spiritually poorC.though their house is big, they prefer a simple lifeD.though their house is big, it seems to be a cage15.What would be the best title for the passage?A.House of Life B.Secret of WealthC.Rest and Refreshment D.Interest and Enthusiasm二、七选五The Internet has opened up a whole new online world for us to meet, chat and go where we’ve never been before.But just as in face to face communication,there are some rules of behavior that should be followed when online. The basic rule is simple: treat others in the same way you would want to be treated. 16.. For anything you’re about to send: ask yourself, “Woul d I say this to the person’s face?” If the answer is no, rewrite and reread. 17..If someone in the chat room is rude to you, your instinct (本能) is to fire back in the same manner. But try not to do so. 18.. If it was caused by a disagreement with another member, try to fix the situation by politely discussing it. Remember to respect the beliefs and opinions of others in the chat room.19.. Offer advice when asked by newcomers, as they may not be sure what to do or how to communicate. When someone makes a m istake, whether it’s a stupid question or an unnecessarily long answer, be kind about it. If it’s a small mistake, you may not need to say anything. Even if you feel strongly about it, think twice before saying anything. Having good mariners yourself doesn’t give you license to correct everyone else. If you do decide to tell someone about a mistake, point it out politely. At the same time, if you find you are wrong, be sure to correct yourself and apologize to those that you have offended.It is not polite to ask others personal questions such as their age, sex and marital status. 20., don’t ask such questions.A.It’s natural that there some people who speak rudely or make mistakes online B.Repeat the process till you feel sure that you’d feel comfortable sa ying the words to the person’s faceC.Everyone was new to the network onceD.Imagine how you’d feel if you were in the other person’s shoesE.When you send short messages to a person online, you must say something beautiful to hearF.You should either ignore the person, or use your chat software to block their messagesG.Unless you know the person very well, and you are both comfortable with sharing personal information三、完形填空It was a bitter, cold evening in northern Virginia many years ago.The old man’s beard was glazed by winter’s frost while he waited.

He watched as several horsemen rounded the bend.He let the first one without an effort to get his attention. Then another, and another.

As they neared the tiny but cozy cottage, the horseman’s caused him to ask,“Sir, I noticed that you let several other riders go by without making a(n) to get a ride. Then I came up and you asked me for a ride. I’m curious why, on such a bitter winter night, you would wait and ask the last rider. I had refused and left you there?”The old man himself slowly down from the horse, looked at the rider straight in the eyes and replied, “I’ve been here for some time. I think I know people pretty good.”He continued, “I looked into the eyes of the other riders and immediately saw there was no for my situation. It would have been even to ask them for a ride. But when in your eyes, kindness and compassion were . I knew, , that your gentle spirit would welcome the opportunity to give me help in my time of need.”Those heart-warming touched the horseman deeply.“I’m most grateful for what you have said,” he told the old man. “May I never get busy in my own affairs that I fail to the needs of others with kindness and compassion.”With that, Thomas Jefferson turned his horse around and made his way back to the White House.21.A. drive B. horse C. ride D. bridge22.A. urgent B. freezing C. careless D. endless23.A. quickly B. anxiously C. luckily D. eventually 24.A. come over B. get off C. pass by D. take off 25.A. hand B. horse C. eye D. leg26.A. rejected B. hesitated C. replied D. continued27.A. afraid B. eager C. unable D. sorry28.A. honesty B. courage C. enthusiasmD. curiosity29.A. choice B. stop C. effort D. contribution 30.A. immediately B. hurriedly C. friendly D. strongly31.A.

辽宁省沈阳市第二中学2023-2024学年高一下学期期中考试英语试题
辽宁省沈阳市第二中学2023-2024学年高一下学期期中考试英语试题一、阅读理解First Aid: To the boneWith summer in full swing and kids excited to head outdoors to play, the possibility of getting injured isn’t a distant possibility. When the injury takes a more serious tone, such as a sprain or a fracture, it’s important to know what to do and not to panic.How do we tell the difference between a sprain and a fracture?It is difficult to differentiate as both conditions result in swelling around the injury, bruising of the skin and both feel pretty painful. The best thing to do is to treat the injury as if it is a fracture.How many types of fracture are there?Generally, there are two types. Closed fracture is when there is a break in the bone but no damage to the skin or tissue. There will be swelling or skin discolouration at the site of the injury and the injured limb (肢体) cannot move. Open or compound fractures are more obvious as there is a break in the bone, bleeding, and an open wound near the fracture. There is a risk of bacteria getting into the bone, which can cause infection, so seek treatment promptly.What should parents do?Parents should:1. Take clothing off the injured area.2. If there is no open wound, apply an ice pack to relieve pain and swelling.3. If a bone fracture is suspected, make a simple splint (夹板) with a board or folded newspapers to immobilise the limb.4. For open fractures, do not wash the wound or push in any bone that’s sticking out as this causes infection. If the wound continues to bleed, use a clean cloth and press the wound to stop the bleeding. Do not straighten the deformed or curved limbs.5. If the injury is to the head, neck or back, do not move your child and call 999 immediately.1.Who is the text intended for?A.Surgeons.B.Parents.C.Children.D.Teachers. 2.What is the feature of closed fracture?A.Broken skin.B.Cracked bone.C.Risk of infection.D.Immobile limb.3.How can we treat open fractures?A.By putting ice pack on the wound.B.By repositioning the broken bone.C.By moving the injured person to safety.D.By applying pressure to stop the bleeding.“If you ask anybody who goes to Walt Disney World,‘Who is Joe Potter?’... They won't know much about him,” said Disney author and historian Christopher Lucas. “Without him, there’d be no Disney World.”General William Joe Potter was the force that turned a swampy (沼泽的) Florida wetland into the Magic Kingdom. Potter was the architect of Disney World’s government, the mastermind behind the hidden tunnel system at the park and the reason why Disney has no mosquito problem today, Lucas said.In his early 60s, the graying retired U.S.Army general led the massive construction project to get Disney's land ready to build a theme park. The water there was “a dark -brown color,” Potter recalled. His men pumped out 5 million cubic yards of the sand, added well water and cleaned the lake's bottom to turn it into a totally different one.The general had been responsible for high - risk projects throughout his entire career before Disney World. At the Panama Canal, he served as governor in charge of business operations and the 40,000 people who lived there from 1956 to 1960.Potter’s inspiration for building the Magic Kingdom's underground tunnels came from the locks and dams(水坝)in the Panama Canal. Potter also knew about battling mosquitoes. “One of the things that he learned from the Panama canal, where people were dying of malaria(定疾),was if you let water just sit there, you're going to havea problem, ”Lucas said. Potter made sure that water was always in motion and engineered the buildings' roofs so water never piled up. What seemed impossible, building a kingdom in the swamp, was becoming a reality.Potter wasn’t interested in taking any credit for what he did at Disney World. “He clearly could have been a guy who was all about himself, but he was the exact opposite,” his grandson said.4.What did Joe Potter do for Disney World?A.He designed the Disney World castles.B.He prepared the wetland for a theme park.C.He promoted the business of the Kingdom.D.He constructed the park's locks and dams.5.What enabled Joe to battle the mosquito problem?A.His sense of responsibility.B.His great determination.C.His working experience.D.His architect knowledge.6.How did Joe successfully tackle the mosquito problem?A.By hiding the tunnel system.B.By pumping out the sand in the lake.C.By keeping the water running.D.By repairing the buildings’roofs. 7.Which of the following best describes Joe Potter?A.Capable and modest.B.Demanding and critical.C.Tough and stubborn D.Disciplined and strict.The San Diego County Water Authority has an unusual plan to use the city’s scenic San Vicente Reservoir (水库) to store solar power so it’s available after sunset. The project could help unlock America’s clean energy future.Perhaps ten years from now, if all goes smoothly, large underground pipes will connect this lake to a new reservoir, a much smaller one, built in a nearby valley about 1100 feet higher. When the sun is high in the sky, California’s abundant solar power will pump water into that upper reservoir. It’s a way to store the electricity. When the sun goes down and solar power disappears, operators would open a valve (阀门) and the force of 8 million tons of water, falling back downhill through those same pipes, would drive machines capable of producing 500 megawatt sof electricity for up to eight hours. That’s enough to power 130, 000 typical homes.“It’s a water battery!” says Neena Kuzmich, Deputy Director of Engineering for the water authority. She says energy storage facilities like these will be increasingly critical as California starts to rely more on energy from wind and solar, which produce electricity on their own schedules, without considering the demands of consumers. Californians learned this during a heat wave this past summer. “Everybody in the state of California got a text message at 5:30 in the evening to turn off their appliances,” Kuzmich says. The sun was going down, solar generation was disappearing, and the remaining power plants, many of them burning gas, couldn't keep up with demand. The reminder worked: people stopped using so much power, and the grid (电网) survived.Yet earlier on that same day, there was so much solar power available that the grid couldn’t take it all. Grid operators turned away more than 2000 megawatt hours of electricity that solar generators could have delivered, enough to power a small city. That electricity was wasted. There was no way to store it for later, when operators desperately needed it.8.What is the function of Paragraph 2?A.To present the importance of a reservoir.B.To introduce the usage of solar energy.C.To recall a situation in recent ten years.D.To explain a way to store electricity. 9.What does the underlined word “critical” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A.Negative.B.Affordable.C.Flexible.D.Significant. 10.Why was a text message sent to everyone in California?A.To remind people of lack of energy.B.To warn people of danger.C.To tell people the sunset time.D.To persuade people into burning gas. 11.Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A.Scenic San Vicente Reservoir B.Water Batteries to Store Solar PowerC.San Diego County Energy Crisis D.Machines to Store Water in CaliforniaThe word paradigm comes from the Greek. It was originally a scientific term, and is more commonly used today to mean a model or theory. In the more general sense, it’s the way we “see” the world —not in terms of our visual sense of sight, but in terms of perceiving (感知), understanding, and interpreting.A simple way to understand paradigms is to see them as maps. We all know that “the map is not the territory.” A map is simply an explanation of certain aspects of the territory. That’s exactly what a paradigm is. It is a theory, an explanation, or model of something else. You can never arrive at a specific location in a new city with a wrong map.Each of us has many maps in our head, which can be divided into two main categories: maps of the way things are, or realities, and maps of the way things should be, or values. We interpret everything we experience through these mental maps. We seldom question their accuracy; we’re usually even unaware that we have them. We simply assume that the way we see things is the way they really are or the way they should be. And our attitudes and behaviors grow out of those assumptions. The way we see things is the source of the way we think and the way we act.We see the world, not as it is, but as we are or, as we are shaped to see it. Clearheaded people see things differently, each looking from the unique angles of experience. But this does not mean that there are no facts. Instead, each person’s interpretation of these facts represents prior experiences.The more aware we are of our basic paradigms, maps, or assumptions, and the extent to which we have been influenced by our experience, the more we can take responsibility for those paradigms, examine them, test them against reality, listen to others and be open to their perceptions (观点), thereby getting a larger picture and a far more objective view.12.How does the author illustrate the concept of “paradigm”?A.By presenting personal examples.B.By sorting it into different categories.C.By comparing it to an everyday object.D.By highlighting a sharp contrast. 13.What can be concluded about the mental maps mentioned in Paragraph 3?A.They fail to escape our attention.B.They prove wrong and unreliable.C.They may be lacking in accuracy.D.They have little influence on behavior. 14.Which of the following concludes the main idea of Paragraph 4?A.Where we stand depends on where we sit.B.All men have opinions, but few think.C.Great minds think alike.D.The fewer the facts, the stronger the opinions. 15.What does the author advocate in the last paragraph?A.A more positive attitude toward life experience.B.A stronger sense of responsibility for others.C.A more objective view of others’ perceptions.D.A better understanding of ourparadigms.When people have a choice of whom to work with, likability can sometimes matter a little bit; more than ability, said Tiziana Casciaro, an associate professor at the University of Toronto’s Rotman School of Management, who researches likability in the workplace. 16 . These strategies can help:17You can induce a sense of similarity with almost anybody by finding things you have in common. They may not be apparent right away, so be observant. Great salespeople do this all the time by studying potential customers for bits and pieces of their lives they can relate to.Like someone and they’ll like you right back18 Flattery (奉承)can convey fondness, but she doesn’t recommend using the fake kind, even though it may work. Casciaro said, Flattery that is completely made up is exhausting and morally blameworthy. Instead, let a praise come from a real place. 19 For instance, “I really appreciate what you did yesterday.”When you give people praises, it goes a very long way towards their liking you back.Be a familiar presenceHumans like things that are familiar, so just seeing you around in person makes you more likable to others. “This concept gives a whole new meaning to the idea of face time,” Casciaro said. 20 If not, just try to talk to people as much as possible in person during work hours, she advised. You want to maximize rich interactions and cut down on the drier ones, like texts and phone calls. Be sure to be seen.A.Ask a lot of questions.B.See the positive in a person and express it to him.C.People like to guess what others think about them.D.What can you do to increase your chances of being liked?E.Find the common points that link you with another person.F.It’s almost irresistible that we like people who seem to like us.G.Go to after-work drinks if you have time and you would find the outing enjoyable.二、完形填空Morning exercises started.

Mack Rutherford,born on June 21, 2005, has become the youngest person to fly around the world alone in a small plane after taking off on March 23, 2022. Five months later, he touched down in theBulgaria (保加利亚),where his journey began, according to Rutherford’s website. He turned 17 years old during the trip.Rutherford’s route extended 52 countries on a specially prepare d plane, according to his website. His journey was tracked on his website, which showed he set off for the Mediterranean (地中海) then through the Sahara, onwards through the Middle East and then East Asia.

Every night, she waits until 4: 17 a. m. in the morning, the exact time that the disaster hit, to try to go tosleep. “I keep thinking another disaster will strike at that time and just wait for it to pass,” said the 28-year-old Gul.Experts fear children will be hardest hit. The United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund (UNICEF) said many of the more than 5. 4 million children who live across the area affected by the earthquake were at risk of developing anxiety, depression and other disorders.“We know how important learning and routine are for children and their recovery,UNICEF Regional Director for Europe and Central Asia Afshan Khan said after a visit to Turkey. “They need to be able to resume their education, and they urgently need psychological support to help deal with the trauma they have experienced.Psychologist and professor at MEF University, Ayse Bilge Selcuk, said, “As rising poverty and the COVID-19 pandemic have hurt the country, the stress is chronic, meaning that the tension continues over time.” “For this nation to get back on its feet, we need to find that strength within us and that starts with our psychologyshe added. Anxiety, helplessness and depression are likely to be common and young people could feel anger. ” Rebuilding efforts should include mental health,“ Selcuk said. She urged the government to provide money for training psychologists to be sent to the earthquake areas to stay there. “We shouldn’t withdraw our attention three months later, ”she said.1.

All routes to STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) degrees run through calculus (微积分) classes. Each year, thousands of college students take introductory calculus. But only a small number ultimately complete a STEM degree, and research about why students abandon such degrees suggests that traditional calculus courses are one of the reasons. With scientific understanding and innovation increasingly central to solving 21st-century problems, this loss of talent is something society can ill afford.Math departments alone are unlikely to solve this dilemma. Several of the promising calculus reforms were spearheaded by professors outside of math departments. STEM faculty are prioritizing cooperation across disciplines to transform math classes to cultivate a diverse generation of STEM researchers and professionals.This is not uncharted territory. In 2013, life sciences faculty at the University of California, Los Angeles, developed a two-course sequence that covers classic calculus topics, but also emphasizes their application in a biological context. Creating this course, Mathematics for Life Scientists, wasn’t easy. The life sciences faculty involved, none of whom had a joint appointment with the math department, said they turned to designing the course themselves after math faculty rejected their request for cooperation.In Ohio, Wright State University’s Engineering departments also revised math offerings. Rather than changing the content of the calculus course, they focused on preparing students for calculus by emphasizing “engineering motivation for math.” The approach enhanced opportunities for students with weaker math backgrounds to succeed in engineering and doubled the average graduation rate of engineering students without reducing the average grade of graduates. Math learning is fundamental to all STEM fields, but the opposite also appears to be true.1. What problem is mentioned in paragraph 1?A.Increasing STEM dropout rate.B.The reform of calculus courses.C.Shrinking admission to STEM majors.D.The shaken belief in the role of calculus.2. What does “spearheaded” in paragraph 2 probably mean?A.challenged B.evaluated C.cancelled D.initiated3. What do we know about the calculus course reform according to the text?A.STEM departments made calculus content easier to improve students’ grades.B.Math departments sought cooperation with STEM counterparts to urge reforms.C.Placing calculus learning in specific STEM contexts is a workable approach.D.Removing calculus is the key to increasing graduation rate of STEM students.4. What does “the opposite” in the last paragraph refer to?A.The STEM fields may be the foundation of other science subjects.B.The STEM fields may be central to making math learning effective.C.Math learning may set barrier for science study in the STEM fields.D.Math learning may make way for science study in the STEM fields.5. Countries around the world are spending plenty of dollars and lots of time on various space tasks.1 Instead, we should feed the world’s poor and find immediate solutions to other problems. However, others feel this is a shallow view which fails to realize how exploring space helps us.2 It has directly resulted in the many satellites (that now move around the earth. A number of the satellites record data on land and weather patterns.3 After careful analysis, the scientists can provide useful recommendations and advice for farmers.Space exploration has already enhanced technological improvements that benefit us all. High-end products around the world are made to a higher standard. Today space technologies are widely used in all kinds of industries. 4Sending astronauts (宇航员) into space has helped people think about the world’s problems and find way s to solve them. Our planet’s resources are limited. In order to provide for the rapidly increasing population, scientists are trying to find other planets that could one day be our new home. 5 In the future, humans may live on both planets.Exploring space benefits us so much. So it should be continued so as to provide new and better solutions to people’s short-term and long-term problems.6. Lentil as Anything was first opened in Melbourne’s St. Kilda in 2000.

Ten years ago, she and her family moved to a new home in Austin, Texas.One day, Kristin tried to connect with her new neighbors by hosting a party. She bought a few picnic tables but the delivery driver set one table down in her front yard by mistake. “After the party, I painted the table turquoise—my favorite color—and put it in the front yard, just a few feet from the sidewalk,” she says.That turquoise table became the place where Kristin and her kids hung out. They played games, did crafts and ate snacks. “We got intentional about where we spent our time,” Kristin says. “We became ‘front yard people’”Neighbors began to stop by to introduce themselves and sit down for a chat. Kristin invited people to join her at the table for coffee or iced tea. Then neighbors asked Kristin if their family could put a picnic table in their front yard too. A movement was born. “It was a simple way to slow down and connect with others,” she says. The turquoise table was inviting and had a shared feel.People often hesitate to invite others into their homes. They think their house is too messy, it's not big enough or they don't have enough time. “Our perfectionism can cause us to miss out on the joy of connecting with others,” Kristin says. Her picnic table takes away the excuses—and the pressure.She likes how it enables her to take a small step toward easing loneliness and building relationships in her community. “People’s greatest need is to know that they are loved and that they belong,” she says.A decade after their Texas beginnings, thousands of Turquoise Tables exist in all50 states and in 13 countriesaround the world. Not all of them are actually turquoise.“ No matter what color it is, it's a friendship table,” Kristin says.4. Why did Kristin Schell start the movement?A. To host more parties in her front yard.B. To entertain her friends and neighbors.C. To engage with people in the neighbourhood.D. To create harmonıous communities worldwide.5. Which of the following words best describe Kristin Schell according to the text?A. Creative and sociable.B. Friendly and humorous.C. Generous and ambitious.D. Cautious and responsible.6. What can be inferred from the text?A. People don't like others to step into their houses.B. The campaign has a big impact at home and abroad.C. Kristin Schell bought the turquoise table to host a party.D. People feel unwilling to join in the front yard chat at first.7. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A. Love Your NeighborsB. An Amazing WomanC. Happy Front Yard TimeD. Tables Where All Are WelcomeCSnow crab legs, the centerpiece of any self-respecting seafood, are no longer on the menu. They are the victim of a massive population crash that led Alaska to cancel its Bering Sea snow crab harvest for the first time in recorded history this year. The$132 million-a-year industry saw the state's snow crab population drop 87%, from 8billion in 2018 to 1 billion last year. Officials suggested that climate change might be to blame; Alaska is the fastest-warming state in the U. S. But that's only part of the story, says Wes Jones, an Alaska-based fisheries expert. According too the marine biologists he works with,, the most immediate cause of snow crab death is something even seasoned fishermen didn't see coming: a mass cannibalism(同类相食) frenzy.Back in 2017, Jones says, local crabbers started reporting a population explosion of juvenile snow crabs. The boom continued into 2019, creating what Jones says was the largest population on record. At the time, the young crabs were too small for a legal harvest- juvenile snow crabs take four to five years to be fully mature. Meanwhile, Bering Sea temperatures , which is usually close to freezing, jumped several degrees from 2017 to 2019 and caused thespecies to speed up their metabolisms(新陈代谢).“All of a sudden you had this huge number of little crabs coming up, eating themselves out of house and home.” says Jones. “Then the water warmed, which meant they had to eat more.” It was a double whammy , and the results were unenviable for a hungry species that has run out of its usual food source. They basically cannibalized each other.” he says.Snow crabs are only the latest victims of climate change in the Bering Sea. Risıng temperatures have often led to unpredictable boom-and-bus t cycles, which have had unanticipated consequences up and down the food chain. A population explosion of sockeye salmon is one likely reason for the recent collapse of Alaska's red king crab harvest, which was also canceled this year. Meanwhile, the warming waters of the Bering Sea have opened the door for Pacific cod, a predator of juvenile crabs.It will be years before the Alaskan snow crab population recovers to harvest-worthy levels, says Jones. And that's only if temperatures in the Bering Sea stay cool enough for the cold-loving juveniles—and climate change is making everything harder to predict. “When you start seeing things outside of the range of what you’ve seen before,” says Jones, “you don't know how that is gonna affect something until it's happened, like rising water temperatures and cannibalism.”8. Why did Alaska cancel its Bering Sea snow crabs harvest this year?A. Customers are no longer crazy about snow crab.B. Snow crabs consume another species as food.C. They population of snow crab dropped sharply.D. Alaska suffers from severe climate change.9. What does the underlined phrase “double whammy” mean in paragraph 2?A. a shortage of food source and cannibalism.B. climate change in the Bering Sea illegal sea harvestC. the advanced metabolism and freezing sea temperature.D. a population explosion of snow crabs and a rise of the sea temperature.10. What can we learn from Wes Jones` words in the last paragraph?A. Bering Sea is certain to stay cool enough for the snow crab.B. Alaskan snow crab population will recover instantly.C. The current situation is hard to predict until it`s happenedD. It is effortless to research how fast the climate changes11. What`s the best title of the text?A. Alaskan fishing industry suffers heavy losses.B. Climate change leads to victims in the Bering Sea.C. Alaska delayed a snow crab harvest..D. The curious case of the cannibal crabs.DWho cares if people think wrongly that the internet has had more important influences than the washing machine? Why does it matter that people are more impressed by the most recent changes?It would not matter if these misjudgments were just a matter of people's opinions. However, they have real impacts, as they result in misguided use of scarce resources.The fascination with the ICT(Information and Communication Technology)revolution, represented by the internet, has made some rich countries wrongly conclude that making things is so “yesterday” that they should try to live on ideas.This belief in “post-industrial society” has led those countries to neglect their manufacturing sector(制造业), with negative consequences for their economies.Even more worryingly, the fascination with the internet by people in rich countries has moved the international community to worry about the “digital divide” between the rich countries and the poor countries. This has led companies and individuals to donate money to developing countries to buy computer equipment and internet facilities. The question, however, is whether this is what the developing countries need the most. Perhaps giving money for those less fashionable things such as digging wells, extending electricity networks and making more affordable washing machines would have improved people's lives more than giving every child a laptop computer or setting up internet centres in rural villages, I am not saying that those things are necessarily more important, but many donators have rushed into fancy programmes without carefully assessing the relative long-term costs and benefits of alternative uses of their money.In another example, a fascination with the new has led people to believe that the recent changes in the technologies of communications and transportation are so revolutionary that now we live in a “borderless world”. As a result, in the last twenty years or so, many people have come to believe that whatever change is happening today is the result of great technological progress, going against which will be like trying to turn the clock back. Believing in such a world, many governments have put an end to some of the very necessary regulations on cross-border flows of capital, labour and goods, with poor results.Understanding technological trends is very important for correctly designing economic policies, both at thenational and the international levels, and for making the right career choices at the individual level. However, our fascination with the latest, and our under valuation of what has already become common, can, and has, led us in all sorts of wrong directions.12. Misjudgments on the influences of new technology can lead to .A. a lack of confidence in technologyB. a slow progress in technologyC. a conflict of public opinionsD. a waste of limited resources13. The example in Paragraph 4suggests that donators should .A. take people's essential needs into accountB. make their programmes affordable to peopleC. ensure that individuals gets financial supportD. provide more alternative Internet facilities14. What has led many governments to remove necessary regulations?A. Neglecting the impacts of technological advances.B. Believing that the world has become borderless.C. Ignoring the power of economic development.D. Focusing on the role of international communication.15. What can we learn from the passage?A. People should be encouraged to make more donations.B. Traditional technology still has a place nowadays.C. Making right career choices is vital to personal success.D. Economic policies should follow technological trends.第二节(共5题; 每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
