& Elite Party Rentals into a well-developedwedding planning and rental operation.Statistics show that these kinds ofmommy-owned businesses are on the rise.Many women say they can’t findwork that

evenings will allow you to spend time with your children during the day and continue your business after they go to school.”Ninety-two percent of female small business owners say that mobile equipment

that a person who never settlesdown in one place will not be successful.Another is that someone who is alwaysmoving,with no roots in one place,avoids responsibilities.This proverb was said to be first used in the 1500s.But in the 1960s,the expression “rolling stone” became famous in the world of rock-and-roll music.It became the name of a song,a rock group and a magazine.Experts say it all started with a song by the American singer and guitarist Muddy Waters.He was one of the country’s top blues musicians until his death in 1983.His music influenced singers like Elvis Presley and Bob Dylan.In 1950,Muddy Waters recorded a song called “Rolling Stone”.A British rock group is said to have taken its name from Muddy Waters’song.The Rolling Stones performed for the first time in 1962.The group’s members called themselves “the world’s greatest rock-and-roll band”.In 1965,Bob Dylan released his song “Like a Rolling Stone”.It is one of his best known and most influential works.It is an angry song about a woman who was once rich and successful.But now she is on her own,“with no direction home,like a complete unknown,like a rolling stone”.In 1967,a young man named Jann Wenner started a magazine and he named it “Rolling Stone”.The magazine reported on rock music and the popular culture that the music created.By 197l,“Rolling Stone” had become the leading rock music and counterculture publication.It is still popular today.5.Which person can be described as a rolling stone according to the proverb?A.A person who always changes his jobs.B.A person who has a successful career.C.A person who has no family.D.A person who is out of work.6.All of them are musicians EXCEPT________.A.Elvis Presley B.Bob DylanC.Muddy Waters D.Jann Wenner7.Who first used “rolling stone” as a name for

inventions in India’s ruralvillages.Since 1988,Gupta has been traveling across India in search ofinventions that are changing the lives of the country’s rural poor.Thenetwork now says 13,000 inventions,from a foot-pedal operated washingmachine to a mobile-phone activated irrigation pump that saves farmers thetime and difficulty of manually turning on/off water in their fields.More recently,Gupta worked with the Indian government to set up the National Innovation Foundation,which helps formalizes their inventions and their intellectual property rights and is finally helping to change India’s rural masses into self-sustaining industrialists.In the process,the Honeybee Network is drawing attention to industrialists like Mohammad Saidullah,who developed a simple device out of necessity that now has the power to save thousands of lives.Saidullah arrived at the idea for a floating bicycle during one particularly terrible flood season in his home state of Bihar,India.Like many in his town,Saidullah used a bicycle to get around and a boat to cross a river to get basic flood provisions in a nearby city.He thought if only he could make his bicycle float on water,he could save the cost of hiring a boat to cross the river and catching a bus once he arrived on the other side.It took Saidullah three days and just over $130 dollars to create his amphibious bicycle.He named it the NOOR Bicycle (after his wife),and claims he can now assemble a model for half that much.Such a simple invention with the power to ameliorate the lives of so many should be a winner for our cover.1.From the text,we can learn that Gupta________.A.is an Indian businessman who created the organization Honeybee NetworkB.likes traveling across the country to enjoy the beauty of his countryC.created the bicycle which can be used in water as well as on landD.cooperated with the local government to set up the National Innovation Foundation2.The National Innovation Foundation does the following things to support the masses Except________.A.making their inventions more formalB.protecting their legal rights in intellectual propertyC.helping them to earn money from their inventionsD.helping transition the masses into industrialists3.We can infer from the text that________.A.the amphibious bicycle was named after Saidullah’s wifeB.the author agreed that Saidullah’s invention is appropriate to be used as a coverC.to create his amphibious bicycle Saidullah spent a very long time and so much money D.Saidullah’s invention is not fit to be used as a cover because it

pollution on our planet right now.Theaverage American gets a new mobile phone at least every 18 to 24months.Thus you may buy 34 phones in all during your lifetime if you getyour first phone starting at the age of 18,and there are many kids who havethem even younger.As part of our “throwaway” society,along with our endless desire fornew cell phones,it is estimated (估计) that over 125 million cell phones arethrown away every year.Knowing that the landfill doesn’t have to be the endpoint of your cell phone can greatly reduce the amount of unnecessary waste produced each year.The reason why cell phone recycling is important is that they contain some pretty toxic (有毒的) stuff.But they also contain some nontoxic materials that can be recycled and used again.Yet in reality,we pollute the earth even more by trying to produce these components over again from our limited natural resources.Unfortunately,no landfill is 100% safe.It is the toxins that come from these toxic materials into the ground which pollute our drinkable water supply and affect our health.Currently,less than 1% of the entire earth’s water is drinkable,so we must take steps to protect it.So,before you decide to throw away your old cell phone in exchange for a new one,think for a moment if you really need it or is it because you want the coolest new style?If your older model is still working fine,do you really need to buy a new one?Think about where your cell phone will end up.That it disappears from your sight as it heads for the landfill doesn’t mean its influences stop there.1.The underlined word “landfill”in the second paragraph probably means a place________.A.to repair cell phonesB.to grow cropsC.to recycle electrical equipmentD.to bury waste2.We can infer from the text that the author________.A.disagrees with young kids having cell phonesB.doesn’t support frequently buying new cell phonesC.thinks that we must take steps to stop filling landfillsD.believes that the influence of old cell phones is small3.Which of the following is NOT an advantage of recycling old cell phones?A.It changes the toxic materials in the cell phones.B.It avoids wasting our limited natural resources.C.It protects our health against polluted water.D.It reduces the amount of unnecessary waste.4.What can we learn from the text?A.The average American buys a new cell phone every year.B.Over 34 million cell phones are thrown away every year.C.People usually throw away old and used things nowadays.D.It is unlikely to pollute the environment if you bury rubbish.B(2012·云南省检测)If teens could reduce the salt they take in everyday by 3,000 milligrams (mg),they would cut their risk of heart disease andstroke (中风) greatly in adulthood,researchers say.Based on the results of a computer modeling analysis,researchersfound thata 3,000 mg reduction in sodium (钠) by teenagers could reducehypertension by 30 percent to 43 percent when they become adults.Hypertension,or high blood pressure,is a common condition that mayhave no symptoms for years,but can eventually cause serious healthconditions,including heart attack and stroke.Other benefits over time as teens hit 50 years of age include a 7 percent~12 percent reduction in coronary heart disease (冠心病),an 8 percent~14 percent reduction in heart attack,and a 5 percent~8 percent reduction in stroke.Fast food typically contains too much sodium.One bag of Nacho Cheese Doritos has 310 milligrams.Pizza is one of the biggest problems for teens when it comes to sodium,according to data from the National Center for Health Statistics.“The additional benefit of lower salt intake early is that we can hopefully change the expectations of how food should taste,ideally to something slightly less salty,” says Dr.Kirsten Bibbins-Domingo,the lead author of the study and associate professor of medicine at the University of California,San Francisco.“Most of the salt we eat is not from our salt shaker (盐瓶),but salt that

bed and wake time scheduleGo to bed at the same time every night.Choose a time when you normally feel tired,so that you don’t toss or turn.Try not to break this routine on weekends when it may be tempting to stay up late.If you want to change your bedtime,help your body adjust by making the change in small daily increments,such as 15 minutes earlier or later each day.As with your bedtime,try to maintain your regular wake-time even on weekends.2.Fight after-dinner drowsiness (睡意)If you find yourself getting sleepy before your bedtime,get off the couch and do something mildly stimulating to avoid falling asleep,such as washing the dishes,calling a friend,or getting clothes ready for the next day.If you give in to the drowsiness,you may wake up later in the night and have trouble getting back to sleep.3.Keep your room dark and coolWhen it’s time to sleep,make sure that your environment is dark.Even dim light-especially those from TV or computer screens-can confuse the body clock.Heavy curtains or shades can help block light from windows,or you can try an eye mask to cover your eyes.The temperature of your bedroom also affects sleep.A bedroom that is too hot or too cold can interfere with quality sleep.4.T urn off your televisionMany people use the television to fall asleep or relax at the end of the day.Y ou may even have a television in your bedroom.However,television actually stimulates the mind,rather than relaxing it.Part of this is due to te night news and prime time shows frequently have disturbing,violent material.Even non-violent programming can have commercials that are jarring and loud.5.Exercise earlyExercise helps promote restful sleep if it is done several hours before you go to bed.Exercise can help you fall asleep faster and sleep more soundly-as long as it’s done at the right time.Try to finish exercising at least three hours before bed or work out earlier in the day.6.Consult your doctorUse a sleep diary and talk to your doctor.Note what type of sleep problem is affecting your sleep or if you aresleepy when you wish to be awake and alert.Try these tips and record your sleepand sleep-related activities in a sleep diary.If problems continue,discuss the sleep diary with your doctor.There may be an underlying cause and you will want to be properly diagnosed.Y our doctor will help treat the problem or may refer you to a sleep specialist.1.To prevent yourself from sleeping too much on weekends,you should________.A.go to bed at usual timeB.go to bed 15 minutes earlier than usualC.go to bed at any timeD.make an adjustment to your bedtime2.Which of the following makes it easier for you to have a sound sleep?A.Watching violent programmes before going to bed.B.Using heavy curtains or an eye mask to block light.C.Changing your bedtime only a little every day.D.Completing your workout just before bedtime.3.The following ways can help fight after-dinner drowsiness EXCEPT________.A.making a telephone callB.doing some washingC.having a rest on the sofaD.getting clothes ready for the next day4.If your sleep problems continue,you’d better________.A.move into a new houseB.turn to the doctor for

to press six times,for a total of 275,000 so far.The publisher cannot print copies quickly enough,leaving some bookstores and online retailers (零售商) hopeless without copies just as the holiday shopping season begins.“It’s frustrating,” said Rona,the owner of the BookMark.“In this age of instant books,why does it take so long to reprint it?” Kris,an owner of a bookstore said:“It was sold right out.There’s a lasting love affair with Mark Twain, especially around here.Anybody within a stone’s throw of the Mississippi River has a Twain attachment.” Mr.Ingram said:“I’m sure every bookseller in the world is saying,‘I_should_have_been_sharper.I should have thought this one through more carefully.’” Earlier this week,the book was sold out at a handful of bookstores.Some booksellers said they had been told,much to their disappointment,that they would not receive reorders until mid-December or even January.Many booksellers said the book has a holiday-gift quality,which has a unique story behind its publication.Twain ordered that the book be published a century after his death.It is more political than his previous works,being frank,funny,angry and full of memories from his childhood.It’s literary,but not too tough to read.The content,itself,is very readable.It can be easily picked up and read without the worry of continuity (连贯性).“I’ve only had a chance to look at it,but from what I did see,it looked like the kind of book you would never finish,and you would never even think of reading from the beginning to the end,”said Mr.Ingram of Prairie Lights.“It’s the kind of book you would read a little bit every day of your life.”“He was a wonderful showman.And he was cool.Let’s face it.That’s part of it.”Mr.Kettmann said.“We feel America’s kind of excited about a literary icon,”said Ms.Dahne.“There’s something very sweet about the fact that people are interested in a 736-page scholarly book about Mark Twain.”1.We can find this article in a________.A.newspaper B.brochureC.novel D.guidebook2.The underlined words “I should have been sharper” here means that booksellers________.A.should raise the price of the bookB.were not smart enough to notice the situationC.should print more copies of the bookD.were quite clear about the situation3.“Autobiography of Mark Twain” is a book that________.A.will be easily put down once readB.is hard for us to understandC.is only suitable to be a holiday giftD.should be read in small bits4.The article intends to tell us________.A.Americans like reading books very muchB.Mark Twain’s autobiography is well receivedC.many booksellers are crazy about Mark TwainD.the business of American bookstores is goodB(2012·山西省三市联考)The iPhone,the iPad,the iPod:each ofApple’s products sounds cool and has become a fad (一时的风尚).Applehas cleverly taken advantage of the power of the letter “i”-and many otherbrands are following suit.The BBC’s iPlayer-which allows Web users towatch TV programs on the Internet-adopted the title in 2008.A lovely bear-popular in the US and UK-that plays music and video is called“iTeddy”.A slimmed-down version of London’s Independent newspaperwas launched last week under the name “i”.In general,single-letter prefixes (前缀) have been popular since the 1990s,when terms such as e-mail and e-commerce first came into use.Most “i”products are targeted at young people and considering the major readers of Independent’s“i”,it’s no surprise that they’ve selected this fashionable name.But it’s hard to see what’s so special about the letter “i”.Why not use “a”,“b”,or “c” instead? According to Tony Thorne,head of the Language Center at King’s College,London,“i” works because its meaning has become ambiguous.When Apple uses “i”,no one knows whether it means Internet,information,individual or interactive,Thorne told BBC Magazines.“Even when Apple created the iPod,it seems it didn’t have one clear definition,” he says.“However,thanks to Apple,the term is now associated with portability (轻便) ,” adds Thorne.Clearly the letter “i”also agrees with the idea that the Western World is centered on the individual.Each person believes they have their own needs,and we love personalized products for this reason.Along with “Google” and “blog”,readers of BBC Magazines voted “i” as one of the top 20 words that have come to define the last decade.But as history shows,people grow tired of fads.From the 1900s to 1990s,products with “2000” in their names became fashionable as the year was associated with all things advanced and modern.However,as we entered the new century,the trend inevitably disappeared.5.We can infer that the Independent’s“i” is aimed at________.A.young readers B.old readersC.fashionable women D.engineers6.The underlined word “ambiguous” means “________”.A.popular B.uncertainC.definite D.unique7.Nowadays,the “i” term often reminds people of the products which are________.A.portableB.environmentally friendlyC.advancedD.recyclable8.The writer suggests that________.A.“i” products are often of a high qualityB.the popularity of “i” products may not last longC.the letter “b” replaces letter “i” to name the productsD.iTeddy is a live bearⅢ.短文改错Never shall I forget the first English lesson giving by Miss Liu.One Monday morning,when she entered the classroom,we found out that she was a young and beautiful lady.Then she introduced her and said they shoul dn’t call her Teacher Liu but Miss ter,she asked us to go to the blackboard and said something about ourselves with English in turn.When it was my turn,I felt too shy that I didn’t dare to say anything before the class.She went up to me and said kind,“Don’t be afraid.I believe you can do well.” At last,I went to the blackboard.She praised me for that I had done.Unit 5Canada—“The True North”Ⅰ.单项填空1.【解析】选D。

The latest research indicates that men’s hearts going into a rapid decline when they reach middle age could be the cause.The research of ageing on the heart has shown that women’s longevity may be linked to the fact that their hearts do not lose much pumping power with age.“We have found that the power of the male heart falls by 20 percent~25 percent between 20 and 70 years of age,”said the head of the study,Samantha of Liverpool John Moores University in the UK.“Within the heart there are millions of cells which make it beat.Between the ages of 20 and 70,one-third of those cells die and are not replaced in men,” said Samantha.“This is part of the ageing process.”What amazes scientists is that the female heart suffers very little loss of these cells.A healthy 70-year-old woman’s heart could work almost as perfectly as a 20-year-old one’s.“This gender (性别) difference might give the reason why men live shorter than women,”said Samantha.They studied over 250 healthy men and women between the ages of 17 and 80,who are mainly healthy persons so as to reduce the influence of disease.“The team has yet to think about why ageing suffers a greater loss on the male heart,” said Samantha.But there is also good news-men can enjoy the health of their hearts with regular exercise.Samantha stressed that women should also take regular exercise to stop their leg muscles getting weaker as they age.1.The underlined word “longevity” in the second paragraph means “________”.A.health B.long lifeC.ageing D.effect2.The text mainly talks about________.A.men’s heart cellsB.women’s ageing processC.the gender differenceD.hearts and long life3.According to the text,the UK scientists have known that________.A.men have fewer cells than women when they are bornB.women can produce the cells that make the heart beatC.the female heart suffers less loss of the cells with ageD.women will never suffer the loss of pumping power with age4.If you want to live a long life,you should________.A.enable your heart to beat much fasterB.think about the reason for ageingC.take regular exerciseD.stop your cells from being lostB(2012·河南质量调研)At a physics conference dinner with myhusband Alex,I sat next to a man I’ll call Clayton.Clayton kept talkingabout himself all through the entire conversation:he had solved problemsno one else could;only his views were right;other researchers’work wasinaccurate or unimportant.I could not put in a word.Extremely annoyed,I planned to avoid Clayton in the future.In fact,I decided never to have another conversation with him.A few days later I was in an education class.Our professor explained how one child could become the target of the other students’ ridicule (讥笑).“Usually it’s because the class sees their own weaknesses glaringly magnified (放大) in that student.They don’t want to admit they have the same weakness,so they ridicule and exclude the student.The behavior of both the class and the excluded student is caused by personal insecurity.”As I took notes,suddenly I thought of Clayton.It struck me that I have many of the same faults.How easily I rule a conversation and leave others out.I,too,sometimes feel that only my opinion is right.My concerns or work easily seems most important.As my professor had described,I reacted negatively to someone in whom I experienced my own weakness.I changed my mind.Instead of avoiding Clayton,I’ll try to listen patiently with the same kindness and acceptance that I need.5.The writer was extremely annoyed with Clayton partly because________.A.he said not all his views were rightB.he wouldn’t let her put in a wordC.he kept silent all through the dinnerD.he was too particular about the food6.Who said the words in Paragraph 3?A.Clayton.B.The writer’s husband.C.The writer.D.The writer’s professor.7.The fourth paragraph was written to show________.A.why the writer changed her mindB.how the writer was annoyedC.when the writer had her educationD.what weakness the writer had8.We can infer from the last paragraph that________.A.the writer will see other people more positivelyB.Clayton will not rule a conversation any longerC.the writer will try to avoid talking with ClaytonD.Clayton will find out he has his own weaknessⅢ.情景对话Husband:Hi,darling,I’m home.Wife: _____ 1_____Husband:Well,just as usual.Wife: Come on,I’ve known you for years.Y our face tells me something has happened.Husband:Is that so?Wife: _____ 2_____Tell me,what happened?Husband:Guess!Wife:Y ou’re promoted?Husband:_____ 3_____Wife:Y ou got a raise?Husband:Right!

paper from his wallet.Hefound it when he tidied up some drawers at home.It was a small love letterJanet had written.The note could look like a school girl’s scrawls (不工整的字迹) about her dream guy.But the small letter was written by a womanwho had had seven children,who fought for her life and who probably onlyhad a few months left to live.It was a beautiful recipe (秘诀) for how to keep a marriage together.Janet’s description of her husband begins thus:“Loved me.Took care of me.Worried about me.”John showed great consideration for Janet.Sometimes he came home in the evening to find her in low spirits.In no time he got her into the car and drove her to her favorite restaurant.“Helped me when I was ill,” the next line reads.Perhaps Janet wrote this while the cancer was in the stage where everything is-almost-as it used to be,before the sickness broke out,and where it doesn’t hurt to hope that everything is over,maybe forever.“Stood by my side.”“Made sure I had everything I needed,” she goes on to write.After that she has turned over the paper and added:“Warmth.Humor.Kindness.Thoughtfulness.” And then she writes about the husband she has lived with and loved the most of her life:“Always there for me when I needed you.”The last words she writes sum up all the others:“Good friend.”I stand beside John now,and cannot pretend to know how it feels to lose someone who is as close to me as Janet was to him.“John,”I ask.“How do you stick together with someone through 38 years-not to mention the sickness? How do I know if I can bear to stand by my wife’s side if she becomes sickone day?”“You can,” he says quietly.“If you love her enough.”1.How did John get the love letter?A.Janet sent it to him when she was a girl.B.John cleared the drawers at home and found it.C.Janet hid the letter in his wallet before her death.D.The author handed it over to John after Janet’s death.2.In Janet’s mind,her husband was a________man.A.humorous B.braveC.thoughtless D.broken-hearted3.In the author’s eyes,Janet’s love letter is________.A.a song of praiseB.the secret for marriageC.the will of JanetD.a concern for John4.When Janet was in low spirits,John comforted her by________.A.standing by her sideB.telling her funny storiesC.taking her to eat outD.driving her around in the carUnit 2Healthy eatingⅠ.单项填空1.【解析】选B。

B.V ery shocked.C.Indifferent.

negotiations,the Western world turns to the“I to you” approach while Japan,the “you to you” approach.The former means both sides present their arguments openly from their own point of view.Naturally,often comes a confrontation (冲突) situation,which the Westerners are very skillful in dealing with.The latter is based on each side trying to understand the other person’s point of view.Thus,the direction of the meeting is a mutual (相互的) attempt to reduce confrontation and achieve harmony.Besides,Western decision-making goes mostly from top management and often does not consult middle management or the workers.However,in Japan great consideration is given to the thoughts and opinions of everyone at all levels.Based on “bottom-up direction”,ideas can be created at the lowest levels,travel upward through an organization and have an effect on the final decision.Difference in decision-making also comes from different communication styles.The Japanese business person works to achieve harmony,even if the deal falls through,and will spend whatever time is necessary to determine a “you to you”approach,communicating personal views only indirectly.They put a thorough job above the Western deadline approach.So the Japanese is thorough in their meetings.Thus Americans are often annoyed by the many meetings in many Japanese businesses.But where the American is pressing for a specific decision,the Japanese is trying to think up a rather broad direction.On the other hand ,once a given agreement is made ,it is the Japanese who sometimes wonders at the slow pace in which the Westerners carry out the decision.The Japanese is eager to move forward and the Westerners ,perhaps ,lag (落后于) behind as they take the time for in-depth planning.1.A Japanese business bases its decision________.A .on top-down directionB .on nothing but its workers’v iewsC .on bottom-up directionD .only on its top leaders’opinions2.The text mainly tells us that Japan and the Western world________.A .face great difficulty in making decisionsB .are different in decision-making stylesC .have all members contribute to a decisionD .have two approaches :“I to you” and “you to I”3.Which

destruction in various parts of the world.Most of these damaging earthquakes occur either in a narrow belt which surrounds the Pacific Ocean or in a line which extends from Burma to the Alps in Europe.Some of the destruction is directly caused by the quake itself.An example of this is the collapse of buildings as a result of the quake itself. Other damage results from landslides (山崩) or major fires which are initiated by the quake.a million quakes a year.Fortunately ,however ,not all of them are destructive.The intensity of an earthquake is measured on the Richter Scale ,which goes from 0 upward.The highest scale recorded to date is 9.0.Major damage generally occurs from quakesranging upwards from 6.0. of the quake itself is the breaking of rocks at or below the earth’s surface.This is produced by pressure which scientists believe may be due to a number of reasons ,two of which are the expansion and contraction of the earth’scrust and continental drift. the damage and to prevent some of the suffering resulting from earthquakes ,scientists are working on ways to make accurate prediction.Special instruments are used to help people record ,for example ,shaking of the earth.Scientists are tryingto find methods that will indicate the exact time,location and size of an earthquake.have been observed which are believed to be signs of imminent earthquakes.These include strange behaviours of some animals,the changes in the content of mineral water,etc..The magnetic properties (磁性) of rocks may also display special pattern before major earthquakes happen.选修八Unit 1 A land of diversityⅠ.语音知识1~5.DACBAⅡ.单项填空1.【解析】选B。

with establishedtradition.What do they do to get more out of Christmas?Some folks kill two birds with one stone by booking a short holidayabroad-they can escape miserable winter weather and the strained atmosphere of a family Christmas with the relatives.OK,so flying to warm and mild climates is great for people who live in cold winter climates.But how do you celebrate Christmas when your year-round climate is warm,or even tropical? For instance,in California,where sunshine and palm trees replace traditional Christmas images of snow and sleighs,there are some Christmas traditions which may seem unusual to those used to more traditional images.In Santa Cruz,California,Santa Claus arrives on a surfboard,wearing a red wetsuit.As long as he comes bearing presents,Surfing Santa would probably be welcome anywhere.In Australia,many young people enjoy the warm weather with a beach barbecue and cold beer.In recent years,Bondi Beach has become an attractive place for overseas visitors to gather and celebrate.It’s not uncommon for numbers to reach 40,000 on Christmas day.In cooler climates,many young people simply see Christmas as a time to escape their immediate families and celebrate with rge amounts of alcohol are usually involved.Parents are not.We all know the feeling:you receive the kind of gift that you wouldn’t choose for yourself in a million years.But you have to smile and bear it pretending that you love your new present.To avoid inflicting this experience on others,many people give gift vouchers (代金券) at Christmas.They simply go to a big store that they know the gift receiver likes,and buy them a voucher from the store.With this the recipient can buy whatever they like and everyone is spared embarrassment.1.In California,Santa Claus brings gifts________.A.by moving the sleighsB.by surfing wavesC.by taking some barbecues on beachD.by planting palm trees2.Some people don’t like to celebrate Christmas with their relatives because________.A.they can’t bear some atmosphereB.they don’t want to make relatives buy giftsC.they want to make reunion much happierD.they want to bring something new back3.The writer’s attitude to breaking the tradition is________.A.objective B.particularC.subjective D.optimisticUnit 4Wildlife protectionⅠ.单项填空1.【解析】选B。

teens dominate their peers on a mission.We know these stereotypes (陈规旧习) all too well and assume they are just that-blown up generalizations.But movies aside,is there some underlying truth that being popular makes teens more aggressive?Published in the February issue of the journal American Sociological Re v ie w,one study followed approximately 3,700 students in 8th,9th and 10th grades for one school year and found that popular adolescents were more likely to act aggressively to climb the social hierarchy (等级制度) among their peers.This trend was apparent in both sexes.Although popular teens were more likely to act aggressively,the researchers found an exception:adolescents in the top and the bottom parts of the social hierarchy displayed the least aggression toward others.Robert Faris,a sociologist at the University of California,Davis,and co-author of the study,says this may be because teens at the bottom of the totem pole (等级) don’t have the social power to pay off (成功) being aggressive,while kids at the top have no need to assert (维护) themselves.“If an adolescent at the top of the social hierarchy were to act aggressively toward his or her peers,such action could signal insecurity or weakness rather than cement (巩固) the student’s position...”Faris says in a UC Da v is Press Release.Simply put,the most popular kids have an easier time maintaining their statuses by being nice.In the study,aggression was defined as any activity intended to “harm or cause pain”inanother person.“Whether aggression is actually successful in promoting students to the top of the social ranks is still unclear,”the authors said.1.What does the passage mainly tell us?A.What causes teens to be aggressive?B.Popular teens are more aggressive.C.Aggression helps teens be popular.D.What kind of teens can be popular?2.Teens at the bottom of the totem pole are not aggressive probably because________.A.they can’t succeed by being aggressiveB.they can succeed by being niceC.they needn’t be aggressiveD.they are well treated by others3.According to Faris,if a boy at the top of the social hierarchy is aggressive to others,it shows that________.A.he is no longer popular with othersB.he is really weak insideC.he can’t keep his positionD.he wants to show his power4.We can infer from the fifth paragraph that the most popular kids________.A.tend to be more aggressiveB.don’t dominate other teens in a groupC.have more difficulty in maintaining their statusD.don’t have to be aggressive to keep their statusⅣ.信息匹配A.How important it is for drivers to be

drivers should not be responsible for the road accidentsE.The author’s attitude towards a future without traffic problems is doubtfulF.People usually pay little attention to law and moralityweapon ever invented.Much of the blood on the street flows from uncivil behavior of drivers who refuse to respect the legal and moral rights of others.So the massacre (屠杀) on the road may be regarded as a social problem.of society on wheels are rather harmless to ordinary people acting carelessly,you might say.But it is a principle both of law and common morality that carelessness is no excuse when one’s actions could bring death or damage to others.A minority of the killers go even beyond carelessness to total negligence.that as many as 80 percent of all automobile accidents can be attributed to the psychological condition of the driver.Emotional upsets can slow their judgment,and blind them to experts’ warn that it is vital for every driver to make a conscious effort to keep one’s emotions under control.walkers regularly violate traffic regulations,they are at fault in most vehicle walker accidents; and many cyclists even believe that they are not subject to the basic rules of the road.standards for vehicle have been raised both at the point of manufacture and through periodic roadworthiness inspections.In addition,speed limits have been lowed.Due to these measures,the accident rate has decreased.But the accident experts still worry because there has been little or no improvement in the way drivers behave.The only real and lasting solution,say the experts,is to convince people that driving is a skilled task requiring constant care and concentration.Those who fail to do all these things present a threat to those with whom they share the road.选修七Unit 1Living

hand in construction or sitting behindthe desk working on a computer,everyone has some ideas of what is an attractive career.However,making a career choice is not simply a matter of following a dream;for most people it means a lot of research and soul searching.Choosing the right career becomes one of the most important decisions of an individual’s life.It used to be that one followed in the footsteps of their father or grandfather or took over the family business when it came to making a career choice.These days,a career path can start anywhere and then veer_off into something totally different.Career choices must be realistic and well thought out.It is not uncommon for persons to start a career path and realize they have made a terrible mistake,feeling as if it may be too late to turn around.Not only does a career choice concern your strongest skills and interest,it is also something that you will be doingcontinuously to bring in income.This is why a career choice can be such a personal decision.Formerly it used to be unusual for someone to change occupations or careers more than once or twice in a lifetime;it is now even more unusual to keep the same career during someone’s working life.There are a great many measures in helping one choose the right profession.A number of websites offering tools such as career tests and information,educational resources,resume services and the kind can be found.It is important for one to research one’s career in this changing economy situation,and choose the best from several related career choices.1.According to the author choosing the right career________.A.is not difficult at allB.needs a lot of dreamsC.is an interesting thingD.needs a lot of thoughts2.The underlined phrase “veer off〞 in the second paragraph probably means “________〞.A.set out to do the same jobB.change the former courseC.compare two different thingsD.dream of getting an easy job3.Nowadays it is common for one to________.A.change his job oftenB.do the same job all his lifeC.find a few good jobs at a timeD.live without a job for many years4.All of the following are the tools on profession offered by websites EXCEPT________.A.tests and informationB.training coursesC.employers’ phone numbersD.instructions on resumeⅣ.信息匹配A.What is dementia?B.A new opinion on the cause of disability.C.A study on disability problems of children.D.What should the World Health Organization do to solve the problem?E.A study on disability problems of the elderly.F.More attention should be paid to old people’s brain and mind diseases.1.The World Health Organization(WHO) says that blindness and other visual problems are the leading causes of disability of older people in low and middle income countries.However,some researchers disagree with WHO on this point.They made a study and found that the leading cause is dementia(痴呆).2.Dementia is a loss of intellectual ability that affects memorizing,learning and thinking abilities and other language skills.People with dementia may forget family members or not know what day it is.Sometimes they become angry or sad,and they can often hear voices,or see things that are actually not there.3.Renata Sousa from the Institute of Psychiatry at King’s College London and other researchers made a new study.The study dealt with the causes of disability among fifteen thousand people aged over sixty five in seven countries,which include China,India,Cuba,the Dominican Republic,Venezuela,Mexico and Peru.The team found that dementia was the leading cause of disability of the elderly in areas except rural India and Venezuela.Other major causes were stroke,arthritis(关节炎),depression,visual problems and gastrointestinal(胃肠道的) problems.4.In low and middle income countries,heart diseases and cancer get more attention than chronic(慢性的)diseases.However,researchers say that great importance should be given to chronic diseases of the brain and mind.As the population ages,the society will have to deal with more and more cases of dementia.The study shows that the elderly is nine percent of the total populationin low and middle income countries today.However,the number is growing quickly.It is likely to reach twenty percent of the total population by the middle of the century.5.An article published in the Lancet medical journal dealt with a special issue on disability.It was a study on disability and children in eighteen low and middle income countries.It indicated that in almost half of the countries,children who were breastfed were less likely to have a disability than those who were not.The same was true of those who had a deficiency of vitamin A and those who were underweight.Children who did not take part in early learning activities or attend school were also more likely to be disabled than those who did.必修一Unit 1FriendshipⅠ.语音知识1~5.ACDAAⅡ.单项填空1.【解析】选C。
