While it is impossible to live completely free of stress, it is possible to prevent stress as well as reduce its effect when it can’t be avoided. The US Department of Health and Human Services offers the following suggestions for ways to deal with stress.◆Try physical activityWhen you are nervous, angry or upset, try releasing the pressure through exercise or physical activity. Running, waling, playing tennis, or working in your garden are just some of the activities you might try.◆Take care of yourselfYou should make every effort to eat well and get enough rest. If you easily get angry and can’t sleep well enough, or if you’re not eating properly, it will be more likely that you will fall into stressful situations. If stress repeatedly keeps you from sleeping, you should consult a doctor.◆Make time for yourselfSchedule time for both work and entertainment. Don’t forget, play can be just as important to your overall well-being as work. You need a break from your daily routine to just relax and have fun. Go window-shopping or work on a hobby. Allow yourself at least a half hour each day to do something you enjoy.◆Make a list of things to doStress can result from disorganization and a feeling that“there’s so much to do, and not enough time”. Trying to take care of everything at once can be too much for you and as a result, you may not achieve anything. Instead, make a list of everything you have to do, then , checking off each task as it is completed. Set out to do the most important task first.91.What is the best title of the passage?(Please answer within 10 words)92.Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?You might feel stressed as a result of bad temper, poor quality of sleep or diet.93.Please fill in the blank in the last paragraph with proper words or phrases to complete the sentence.(Please answer within 10 words)94.Which of the suggestions do you think is the best for you? Why?(Please answer within 30 words)95.Translate the underlined sentence in the first paragraph into Chinese.(2)Ⅵ.阅读表达(共5小题;每小题1分,满分5分)阅读下面的文章,然后根据要求完成后面的问题。

2017届高考英语专题练习(六)阅读理解Ⅳ:词义猜测(测)1.B【甘肃省兰州市第一中学2017届高三上学期期中考试】An 80-year-old man was sitting on the sofa in his house along with his 45-year-old highly educated son.Suddenly a crow perched on the tree near their window.The father asked his son, “What is this?”The son replied, “It is a crow.”After a few minutes, the father asked his son the second time, “What is this?”The son said, “Father, I have just now told you. It is a crow!”After a little while, the old father again asked his son the third time, “What is this?”“It’ s a crow, a crow, a crow!” said the son loudly.A little after, the father again asked his son the fourth time, “What is this?”This time the son shouted at his father, “Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again?’ IT IS A CROW’. Are you not able to understand this?”A little later the father went to his room and came back with an old diary, which he had kept since his son was born. On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page. When the son read it, the following words were written in the diary:“Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa, when a crow was sitting on the window. My son asked me 23times what it was, and I replied to him all 23times that it was crow. I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question again and again for 23times. I did not at all feel annoyed; I rather felt affection for my innocent child.”5.What does the underlined word “perched” mean in the passage?A.knocked B.hitC.landed D.flew2.C【湖北省华中师范大学第一附属中学2017届高三上学期期中考试】BEIJING—The launch of a new manned space mission brings China closer to the establishment of a permanent space station, international experts say.Chinese taikonauts, Jing Haipeng, 50, and Chen Dong, 37, were blasted off into space onboard Shenzhou-11 at 7:30 am Monday and will spend 30 days in the Chinese space laboratory Tiangong-2. The launch marks a key step toward China's plan to eventually operate a permanent space station, The successful launch of the Shenzhou-11 spacecraft is another step forward to put China among leading players in space technology, said Alexander Zheleznyakov, a Russian expert on history of space flights. China's experimental space lab will help provide solutions for spacecraft of different functions to approach and anchor, and for a long-term operation of life support system, said Zheleznyakov. Shenzhou-11 is scheduled to anchor on Wednesday with Tiangong-2, which is part of China's plan to build a permanent space station by 2022.China can now test technologies for cargo spacecraft anchoring, life support system operation and waterrecycling to ensure a long-term continuous operation of its space station in the future with less dependence on renewal from the Earth, he said. If all goes well, China will launch the unpiloted Tianzhou-1cargo ship next spring to autonomously tie up with Tiangong-2. Tianzhou-1will be capable of automatically transferring rocket fuels, a vital requirement for space station grouping and maintenance, according to a report by Columbia Broadcasting System(CBS).“That will further their anchoring abilities needed for the larger space station,” Johnson Freese was quoted. “Tiangong-2 is supposed to be able to stay in orbit for two years or longer, so that's taking them (Chinese)really close to 2019 or so. I think this will be their last big technology test phase before going to their large space station,” said Freese.31.Which of the following can repl ace the underlined phrase “blasted off” in last paragraph?A.sent up B.gave away C.swept off D.carried away3.B【山东省枣庄市第三中学2017届高三9月质量检测】It has always been thought that alcohol causes people to put on weight because it contains a lot of sugar, but new research suggests a glass a day cold form part of a diet. Looking at past studies they found that, while heavy drinkers do put on weight; those who drink in moderation can actually lose weight.A spokesman for the research team at Navarro University in S pain says, “Light to moderate alcohol intake, especially of wine, may be more likely to protect against, rather than promote, weight gain.” The International Scientific Forum on Alcohol research reviewed the findings and agreed with most of the conclusions, particularly that data do not clearly indicate if moderate drinking increases weight.Boston University’s Dr. Harvey Finkel found that the biologic mechanisms(生物学机制)relating alcohol to changes in body weight are not properly understood. His team pointed out the strong protective effects of moderate drinking on the risk of getting conditions like diabetes(糖尿病), which relate to increasing obesity. Some studies suggest that even very obese people may be at lower risk of diabetes if they are moderate drinkers.The group says alcohol provides calories that are quickly absorbed into the body and are not stored in fat, and that this process could explain the differences in its effects from those of other foods. They agree that future research should be directed towards assessing the roles of different types of alcoholic drinks, taking into consideration drinking patterns and including the past tendency of participants to gain weight.For now there is little evidence that consuming small to moderate amounts of alcohol on a regular basis increases one’s risk of becoming obese. What’s more, a study three years ago suggested that resveratrol, a compound present in grapes and red wine destroys fat cells.25.The underlined phrase “in moderation” in the first paragraph me ans_________.A.excitedly B.carefully C.frequently D.properly4.【黑龙江省大庆实验中学2017届高三上学期期中考试】One form of social prejudice against older people is the belief that they cannot understand or use modern technology. Activities like playing computer games, going on the Net and downloading MP3s are only for the youngsters. Isn’t it unfair that older people enjoying a computer game should be frowned(皱眉)upon by their children and grandchildren?Nowadays older people have more control over their lives and they play a full part in society. Moreover, better health care has left more people in their sixties and seventies feeling fit and active after retirement. Mental activity, as well as physical exercise, can contribute to better health. Playing computer games is a very effective way of exercising the brain.When personal computers were first introduced, most older people didn’t believe they would ever familiarize themselves with it. Now computers have been around for a few generations and retired people have gradually become more relaxed about using them for fun. Gamers over 65 prefer playing puzzle games and card games. Kate Stevens, aged 72, says:“I find it very relaxing. It’s not very demanding, but you still need to concentrate.”Another development that has f avored “grey games” is a change in the type of videogames available on the market. There’s a greater variety of games to choose from, including more intellectual and complex strategy(策略)and simulation(模拟)games. Internet Chess and Train Simulator are among the most popular of these. Train Simulator is based on real-world rail activities. Players can choose from a variety of challenges, such as keeping to a strict-timetable and using helper engines during a winter storm.Some people argue that “grey gamers” simply don’t have the skills required for computer games, and that teenagers are better. This couldn’t be further from the truth. Most computer games require the kind of analytical thinking that improves with practice, which means that the “grey gamers” may well be far better than gamers half a century younger than them. In games where speed is the main consideration, older people would be at a disadvantage because they may have slower reaction times. On the other hand, “grey gamers” have a preference for slower paced, mind challenging games.4.By saying “This couldn’t be further from the truth.” in Paragraph 5, the author means_________.A.mind challenging games are not suitable for older peopleB.children should improve their skills with practiceC.playing computer games requires analytical thinkingD.older people can perform well in some computer games5.【黑龙江省双鸭山市第一中学2017届高三9月月考】One day a mime(哑剧演员)is visiting the zoo and tries to earn some money as a street performer. As soon as he starts to draw a crowd, a zookeeper pulls him into his office. The zookeeper explains that the zoo’s most popular attraction, a gorilla(大猩猩), has died suddenly and the keeper fears that attendance(出席人数)at the zoo will fall off. He offers the mime a job to dress up as the gorilla. The mime accepts.The next morning the mime puts on the gorilla suit and enters the cage before the crowd comes. He soon discovers he can sleep, play and make fun of people and he draws bigger crowds than he ever did as a mime — the job he likes but loses.However, with days going by, he begins to notice that the people are paying more attention to the lion in the cage next to his. Not wanting to lose the attention of his audience, he climbs to the top of his cage, crawls across a partition(隔墙), and dangles(悬挂)from the top to the lion’s cage. The lion gets angry at this. The scene is a fuel to the crowd.At the end of the day he is given a raise for being such a good attraction — well, this continues for some time. The crowds grow larger, and th e mime’s pay keeps going up.Then one day when he is dangling over the lion he slides and falls. The mime is terrified. He starts screaming “Help me!”, but the lion is quick. The mime soon finds himself flat on his back looking up at the angry lion and th e lion says, “Shut up you fool! Do you want to get us both fired?”24.The underlined words “a fuel” in Paragraph 3can be replaced by __________.A.frightening B.disappointing C.familiar D.exciting高考英语专题练习(六)阅读理解Ⅳ:词义猜测题(测)解析1.2.3.4.5.。

山东新高考高二英语阅读理解专练(含答案精析)

山东新高考高二英语阅读理解专练(含答案精析)

山东新高考高二英语阅读理解专练(含答案精析)AWhen Anna left her car outside Oxford on January 10th, she had little reason to think that criminals would take an interest in the 12-year-old car. Yet the next afternoon a group of thieves were spotted sawing off its catalytic converter(转换器). Such incidents have become more frequent across Britain as prices for palladium and rhodium(铑), metals contained in the devices, have rocketed. The price of rhodium has risen by 63% in the first three weeks of January alone, to $9,850 per ounce, around six times that of gold.Demand from carmakers is surging. More than four-fifths of global demand for rhodium comes from the automotive industry. The metal, together with platinum and palladium, helps turn toxic gases in a vehicle’s exhaust system into less harmful substances before they leave the tailpipe. Facing stricter emissions regulations around the world, carmakers are taking even more of a shine to these metals.Although the price of palladium has reached a record high, that of platinum has stayed relatively stable. The contrast reflects a shift in production towards petrol and hybrid cars, which tend to use greater quantities of palladium in their converters.Rhodium is used in both petrol and diesel cars. That is because it is especially good at cleaning up nitrogen oxides(氮氧化物), says Roger Breuer, an analyst at an investment firm. Another reason why its price is sky-high is the tightness of its supply. More than four out of every five ounces of rhodium are mined in South Africa. According to an analysis by Stantec, a consulting firm, a mine in the Waterberg region of South Africa due to begin development this year will produce 63% palladium, 29% platinum, 6.5% gold and just 1.5% rhodium.Rhodium is expected to remain in high demand this year. BASF, a German chemicals giant, reckons that Chinese carmakers’ demand for the metal will increase by 40% in 2020. But because electric vehicles do not use catalytic converters, demand in the longer term is far from assured. Rhodium could quickly lose its sheen.1. Why did the thief have an interest in Anna’s old car?A. Because her car looked good.B. Because her car was parked outside a college.C. Because the price of rhodium surged.D. Because the demand of converter increased.2. Why do carmakers need metals like rhodium, platinum and palladium?A. Because these metals make the car valuable.B. Because these metals are convenient to get.C. Because the price of these metals is relatively low.D. Because these metals help clean car emission.3. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?A. Neither petrol cars nor diesel cars need rhodium.B. The price of rhodium is believed to be low.C. Rhodium is mostly produced in South Africa.D. Sufficient supply leads to the high price of rhodium.4. According to the passage, what do you think of the future price of rhodium?A. The price of rhodium will continue rising.B. The price of rhodium may decline.C. The price of rhodium will not change.D. There isn’t a clear clue in the passage.【答案】1~4 CDCB【解析】本文是一篇说明文,说明金属铑价格上涨的现象及原因。

2023年山东卷高考英语阅读题真题解析

2023年山东卷高考英语阅读题真题解析

2023年山东卷高考英语阅读题真题解析题目一:阅读理解Passage 1题目:根据短文内容,选择最佳选项。

Growing up with SiblingsSiblings play a unique role in our lives. They are our companions, our confidants, and sometimes our rivals. From childhood to adulthood, our relationships with our siblings can have a lasting impact on our emotional well-being.For many people, having siblings means having a built-in support system. Siblings are often the first friends we make and the people we can turn to when we need advice or assistance. They can provide emotional support during challenging times and celebrate our achievements with genuine happiness. In times of trouble, having a sibling to rely on can make a world of difference.However, sibling relationships are not always smooth sailing. Sibling rivalry can be a common occurrence, especially during childhood. Competition for attention, resources, or parental affection can lead to conflicts between siblings. This rivalry can be both healthy and harmful, as it can foster personal growth but also create emotional scars that last into adulthood. It is important for parents to create a loving and fair environment where siblings can learn to resolve conflicts and support each other.In addition to the emotional benefits, growing up with siblings can also contribute to our social development. Interacting with siblings helps us learn important social skills such as communication, compromise, and negotiation. Through play and interaction, we learn to share, take turns, and respect each other's boundaries. These skills not only improve our relationship with our siblings but also prepare us for successful relationships with friends, classmates, and colleagues in the future.In conclusion, siblings have a profound impact on our lives. They provide emotional support, teach us important life lessons, and shape our social development. While sibling relationships can be challenging at times, the benefits far outweigh the difficulties. Cherish your siblings and the unique bond you share.问题:1. How do siblings support us according to the passage?A. They provide emotional support.B. They help us make friends.C. They assist us in solving problems.D. They celebrate our achievements.2. What can cause conflicts between siblings?A. Sibling rivalry.B. Shared resources.C. Different interests.D.

(请注意问题后的词数要求)1Soccer is played by millions of people all over the world, but there have only been few players who were truly great. How did these players get that way-was it through practice, or are great players “born, not made”? First, these players come from places that have had famous stars in the past-players that a young boy can look up to and try to imitate. In the history of soccer, only six countries have ever won the World Cup-three from South America and three from Western Europe. ____________-or a really great player-from North America or from Asia. Second, these players have all had years of practice in the game. Alfredo Di Stefano was the son of a soccer player, as was Pele. Most players began playing the game at the age of three or four.Finally, many great players come from the same kind of neighourhood-a poor, crowded area where a boy’s dream is not to be a doctor, lawyer, or businessman, but to become a rich, famous athlete or entertainer. For example, Liverpool, which produced the Beetle, has one of the best English soccer teams in recent years. Pele practiced in the street with a “ball” made of rags. And George Best learned the tricks that made him famous by bouncing the ball off a wall in the slums of Belfast.All great players have a lot in common, but that doesn’t explain why they are great. Hundreds of boys played in those Brazilian streets, but only one became Pele. The greatest players are born with some unique quality that sets them apart from all the others.1. What is the main idea of the passage? (Please answer within 10 words)2. Which sentence in the passage can be replaced by the following one?Generally, where there are great respectable soccer players, such players will come into being.3. Please fill in the blank in the first paragraph with proper words or sentence to complete thesentence. (Please answer within 10 words.)4. To be a great soccer players, he needs some qualities. What quality do you think is the mostimportant? (Please answer within 30 words.)5.Translate the underlined sentence in the third paragraph into Chinese.Keys:1. Soccer is popular, but truly great players are rare. / Although soccer is popular, there are fewgreat players.2. These players come from places that have had famous stars in the past-players that a young boycan look up to and try to imitate.3. There has never been a great national team/ country4. A great soccer player requires a lot of qualities, of which the most important is constant practiceall the time. Without enough practice, you can do nothing at all.5. 最伟大的球员天生具有某种与众不同的奇特天赋。

专题06—文学、艺术与体育Text 1(2020年山东省高考英语试卷(新高考全国Ⅰ卷))阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

In the mid-1990s, Tom Bissell taught English as a volunteer in Uzbekistan. He left after seven months, physically broken and having lost his mind. A few years later, still attracted to the country, he returned to Uzbekistan to write an article about the disappearance of the Aral Sea.His visit, however, ended up involving a lot more than that. Hence this book, Chasing the Sea: Lost Among the Ghosts of Empire in Central Asia, which talks about a road trip from Tashkent to Karakalpakstan, where millions of lives have been destroyed by the slow drying up of the sea. It is the story of an American travelling to a strange land, and of the people he meets on his way: Rustam, his translator, a lovely 24-year-old who picked up his colorful English in California, Oleg and Natasha, his hosts in Tashkent, and a string of foreign aid workers.This is a quick look at life in Uzbekistan, made of friendliness and warmth, but also its darker side of society. In Samarkand, Mr Bissell admires the architectural wonders, while on his way to Bukhara he gets a taste of police methods when suspected of drug dealing. In Ferghana, he attends a mountain funeral(葬礼)followed by a strange drinking party. And in Karakalpakstan, he is saddened by the dust storms, diseases and fishing boats stuck miles from the sea.Mr Bissell skillfully organizes historical insights and cultural references, making his tale a well-rounded picture of Uzbekistan, seen from Western eyes. His judgment and references are decidedly American, as well as his delicate stomach. As the author explains, this is neither a travel nor a history book, or even a piece of reportage. Whatever it is, the result is a fine and vivid description of the purest of Central Asian traditions.8.What made Mr Bissell return to Uzbekistan?A.His friends' invitation.B.His interest in the country.C.His love for teaching.D.His desire to regain health.9.What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 2 refer to?A.Developing a serious mental disease.B.Taking a guided tour in Central Asia.C.Working as a volunteer in Uzbekistan.D.Writing an article about the Aral Sea.10.Which of the following best describes Mr Bissell's road trip in Uzbekistan?A.Romantic.B.Eventful.C.Pleasant.D.Dangerous.11.What is the purpose of this text?A.To introduce a book.B.To explain a cultural phenomenon.C.To remember a writer.D.To recommend a travel destination.【答案】8.B9.D10.B11.A【解析】本文是记叙文。

山东高考英语阅读练习附答案山东高考英语阅读练习原文If youre in Florence, Italy, and see a man on a ladder wiping the dust off statues and buildings, dont worry. Its just Alessandro Ricci gathering material for his famous smog paintings.Ricci is not a common artist,because he used smog as the main medium of his artworks. Unlike other painters seeking fast recognition of their talent, he doesn t really care about “being this big artist”. Instead he is more concerned about bringing attention to how much smog there really is in his home town and how its destroying both its monuments and people.Although he did take a couple of art classes a few years back,he is mainly selftaught,doesnt work in a studio,donates most of his works,and refuses to play by the rules of the Florentine Art Gallery, which he considers corrupt. Alessandro Ricci believes selling his smog paintings will not only compromise his principles,but also contradict the very thing hes trying to do—raise awareness about smog pollution in this city.Alessandro lives with his parents nearby Florence, but almost every day he visits the streets of the city, and collects smog for his paintings. He gets it from several meters above ground,from clean surfaces like marble, plastic and stone, using damp pieces of cotton. Then he applies the smog directly onto a cloth and creates street scenes and reproductionsof the very buildings from which he got the dangerous material. Finally, he seals his paintings with a natural resin (树脂).His actions helped win a small victory for the people of Florence, as in October 25,2012 the Duomo area of the city was made pedestrianonly. But there is still a long way to go,the artist believes, and only cleaning the thick layer of smog that has accumulated throughout Florence would take several years. Still, he continues to paint his unique smog artworks and let the people know how polluted the environment they live in really is.山东高考英语阅读练习题目1.What does the text mainly tell us?A.Florentine artist fights pollution by painting with smog.B.Ricci invents a unique way to paint buildings in Florence.C.People in Florence gather smog to create street scenes.D.Florence takes measures to improve the polluted city.答案:A主旨大意题。

山东高考英语阅读理解训练经典题目(附答案)一、高中英语阅读理解1.(2019•浙江)阅读理解California has lost half its big trees since the 1930s, according to a study to be published Tuesday and climate change seems to be a major factor(因素).The number of trees larger than two feet across has declined by 50 percent on more than 46, 000 square miles of California forests, the new study finds. No area was spared or unaffected, from the foggy northern coast to the Sierra Nevada Mountains to the San Gabriels above Los Angeles. In the Sierra high country, the number of big trees has fallen by more than 55 percent; in parts of southern California the decline was nearly 75 percent.Many factors contributed to the decline, said Patrick Mclntyre, an ecologist who was the lead author of the study. Woodcutters targeted big trees. Housing development pushed into the woods. Aggressive wildfire control has left California forests crowded with small trees that compete with big trees for resources(资源).But in comparing a study of California forests done in the 1920s and 1930s with another one between 2001 and 2010, Mclntyre and his colleagues documented a widespread death of big trees that was evident even in wildlands protected from woodcutting or development.The loss of big trees was greatest in areas where trees had suffered the greatest water shortage. The researchers figured out water stress with a computer model that calculated how much water trees were getting in comparison with how much they needed, taking into account such things as rainfall, air temperature, dampness of soil, and the timing of snowmelt(融雪).Since the 1930s, Mclntyre said, the biggest factors driving up water stress in the state have been rising temperatures, which cause trees to lose more water to the air, and earlier snowmelt, which reduces the water supply available to trees during the dry season.(1)What is the second paragraph mainly about?A. The seriousness of big-tree loss in California.B. The increasing variety of California big trees.C. The distribution of big trees in California forests.D. The influence of farming on big trees in California.(2)Which of the following is well-intentioned but may be bad for big trees?A. Ecological studies of forests.B. Banning woodcutting.C. Limiting housing development.D. Fire control measures.(3)What is a major cause of the water shortage according to Mclntyre?A. Inadequate snowmelt.B. A longer dry season.C. A warmer climate.D. Dampness of the air.(4)What can be a suitable title for the text?A. California's Forests: Where Have All the Big Trees Gone?B. Cutting of Big Trees to Be Prohibited in California Soon.C. Why Are the Big Trees Important to California Forests?D. Patrick Mclntyre: Grow More Big Trees in California【答案】(1)A(2)D(3)C(4)A【解析】【分析】本文属于议论文,围绕加利福尼亚的大树从20世纪30年代以来大量减少为主题,探讨出现这一现象的原因。

阅读理解The deep-sea oil and gas industry has vast and costly facilities to maintain. Wells, other equipment, and thousands of kilometers of pipelines must be inspected and repaired.Now, cutting-edge underwater drones(无人机)and robots are being developed that could make the work safer and cheaper. Among them is Eelume, a six-meter-long, snake-like robot equipped with sensors and a camera at each end. It can be kept at a station at depths of up to half a kilometer for six months, without being brought back to the surface. The robot can travel up to 20 kilometers before needing to return to its station to recharge.Maintenance work at many deep-water wells and pipeline systems is already carried out by unmanned vehicles. But these vehicles typically need to be transported to the offshore site on a fully crewed ship and then remotely operated from onboard the surface ship. That can cost up to $100,000 per day, according to Pål Liljebäck, chief technology officer with Eelume Subsea Intervention, which developed the robot. Liljebäck says that by “enabling the robot to become a subsea resident living at a station, it can be mobilized at any time to do inspections, thereby reducing the need for costly surface ships”.Eelume can work autonomously on tasks assigned from a control room onshore, and send back video and data. Its snake-like design allows it to work in small spaces and wriggle(扭动)its body to stay in place in strong currents. By staying under the sea, it can carry out tasks whatever the conditions on the surface of the ocean.The global underwater robotics market is expected to be worth around $7 billion in 2025, according to analysts, and other companies are in the process of commercializing new deep-sea drone and robot technology. Eelume Subsea Intervention will carry out final testing on the seabed later this year at the Åsgard oil and gas field. It expects to put its first snake robots into use next year and hopes to have up to 50 in oceans around the world by 2027.1.What is one feature of Eelume?A.It can travel nearly 40 kilometers before recharging.B.It can dive as deep as 1000 meters. C.It works mainly around the station.D.It works for 6 months on one charge. 2.What is the problem with unmanned vehicles?A.They are too costly to maintain.B.They are hard to operate remotely.C.They require transportation to and from work.D.They have to work on a fully crewed ship all the time.3.What can be expected of Eelume in the future?A.It will require no further tests.B.It will be worth around $ 7 billion.C.It will be put on the market in 2027.D.It will possibly face some competitors. 4.What is the main idea of the passage?A.A snake robot is on its way for underwater tasks.B.Eelume is the new choice for constructing pipelines.C.Maintenance work on the ocean floor is a risky job.D.Unmanned vehicles are perfect choices for oil and gas industry.Have you ever feel stuck?Robert Susa helps you do up the power and creativity significantly with a few simple changes to your daily routine:Go for a walkRegular exercise helps improve thinking and memory retention. Taking a walk, a cardio class, or a long-distance run gives your brain a rest from work-related thoughts. It has a chance to be creative, which could help you fix the little problem you’ve been having with your invention idea.Indulge in a hobbyA brain needs novelty and exercises to maintain its youthful functions. If your artistic abilities take over your mind for a few hours each week, perhaps an hour a day is enough to strength your brain.Eat brain foodLike your body, your brain needs healthy and nutrient-rich foods to increase productivity. Food rich in flavonoids (黄酮类) can help you optimize your brain and assist with creating your produce or service and helping you remember the conversations and connections you have with other people, as well as those random middle-of-the-night thoughts that could prove useful later on.Find time to clear your mindIf you’re having trouble concentrating or you’re stuck on a problem, take a little time tomeditate. It can clear your mind and provide stress release, and let all worries and problems escape. It benefits your body as well.Add any of these activities-or all four-to your daily routine, and it may help ignite a creative spark. Allowing your brain to change from its workaholic state and into a free-minded flow might be what you need to figure out your great idea.5.When you feel stuck, you shouldn’t ________.A.go for a walk B.find time to clear your mindC.eat over-dose brain food D.indulge in a hobby6.How can you find your great ideas when in trouble?A.Taking a long time to meditate.B.Feeding your mind to the full. C.Allowing your brain to its workaholic state.D.Relaxing yourself and providing stress release.7.The following are the benefits to release stress except ________.A.optimizing your brain B.increasing productivityC.clearing your head of worries and problems D.letting your artistic abilities take over your mind all the timeWalter Benjamin, the German philosopher, once noted that boredom was the “dream bird that hatches the egg of experience”. However, the creative flights of fancy which often arise from having little to do are being killed off by social media, researchers argued. Viewing mindlessly through attention-grabbing posts and videos prevents “profound (深层的) boredom” that can drive people on to new passions or skills. Instead, people find themselves in a state of “superficial boredom”, which does not motivate creative thought.Dr Timothy Hill, leader of the research team at the University of Bath, said, “The problem we observed was that social media can ease superficial boredom. But that also consumes time and energy, and may prevent people progressing to a state of profound boredom, where they might discover new passions. Profound boredom may sound like a negative concept but, in fact, it can be intensely positive if people are given the chance for undisturbed thinking and development.Researchers interviewed 15 people during the pandemic (流行病), when boredom was more likely because of restrictions. Many described being trapped in regularly daily walks and watchingtelevision, with many turning to social media to pass the time. But although the participants said that social media provided a temporary escape from superficial boredom, it also appeared to exacerbate it, leaving them feeling they had wasted their time.The pandemic was a painful and consuming experience for thousands of less fortunate people. But there are stories of those in lockdown who found new hobbies, careers or directions in life. Switching off devices could help people reach the state of boredom which pushes them on to new hobbies or achievements.This research has given us a window to understand how the “always-on”, 24/7 culture and devices that promise an abundance of information and entertainment may be fixing our superficial boredom but are actually preventing us from finding more meaningful things.8.Why are Walter Benjamin’s words mentioned?A.To call for attention to the research on boredom.B.To comment on the strategies to face loneliness.C.To offer advice on developing creative thinking.D.To clarify the problem caused by social media.9.Which of the following may Dr Timothy Hill agree?A.Profound boredom is of value.B.Social media can fuel passions.C.The research has some limitations.D.Creative thought is easily disturbed.10.What does the underlined word “exacerbate” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A.Avoid.B.Break.C.Inspire.D.Worsen.11.What is a suitable title for the text?A.Why people enjoy boredomB.How boredom helps kill timeC.Why being bored may be good for youD.How social media blocks creative ideasResearcher Ruijia Hu said wildlife habitat in crowded places like south went Ohio isbecoming increasingly fragmented (分散) as forests give way to new construction. Eventually, this could make trouble to an animal with specific habitat needs like Ohio’n pileated (红冠) woodpecker.Pileated woodpeckers have the nickname carpenter birds for their never-ending natural woodworking. They peck out holes in trees for their nests every year, creating lots of valuable homes for animals like fox squirrels and owls. “They make new nests every year. They won’t reuse old ones,” Hu said. “Other animals depend on them.”Pileated woodpeckers are private birds that are more often heard than seen. Studying them can be especially difficult. So Hu turned to citizen science for help. To identify where woodpeckers have been seen, she used eight years of sightings collected by birders and logged into the website eBird, a free online tool and app that anyone can use to record their observations and locations. She overlaid these sightings with remote sensing data and found that corridors along rivers and creeks with abundant mature trees and deadwood helped the birds adjust to their increasingly fragmented urban landscape.“With fragmented forests, many habitats that were once suitable for wildlife are broken up,” Hu sa id. “Wildlife is unable to find habitat big enough to meet their survival needs. And even if there are suitable habitats, the distance between them can be too great. Wildlife corridors link up these habitat patches. Since wildlife can travel and migrate from one patch to another, the probability of finding food and shelter is higher.”“There are so many species in urban areas that we don’t pay attention to, especially when they’re not considered vulnerable,” Hu said. “With development chipping away at more forest in this crowded county, the tipping point (临界点) could come quickly and unexpectedly. You can’t fix it overnight. It’s not just about planting more trees. The birds need mature forest, so it could take 30 to 50 years to replace their habitat. At least we can protect these riverside forest corridors and see that existing trees reach maturity.”12.What can we infer from the second paragraph?A.The magpie’s nest is occupied by the dove.B.Birds abandon the old for the new easily.C.Friendship really exists among animals.D.One’s trash is another treasure.13.What is the main idea of the third paragraph?A.The effect of Hu’s study on birds.B.The process of Hu’s research.C.The difficulty Hu had in his study.D.The application of technology.14.What role do wildlife corridors play for birds?A.Helping them survive in the fragmented landscape.B.Making them adjust to deadwood quickly.C.Providing them with enough food for survival.D.Ensuring them a stable and safe habitat.15.What does Hu imply in the last paragraph?A.One tree doesn’t make a forest.B.Be wise after the event.C.Prepare for a rainy day.D.Take things as they come.What is the 15-minute city? It’s the urban planning concept that everything city residents need should be a short walk or bike ride away—about 15 minutes from home to work, shopping, entertainment, restaurants, schools, parks and health care. Supporters argue that 15-minute cities are healthier for residents and the environment, creating united mini-communities, boosting local businesses, and encouraging people to get outside,walk, and cycle.Many cities across Europe offer similar ideas, but Paris has become its poster child. Mayor Anne Hidalgo has sought to fight climate change by decreasing choking traffic in the streets and fuel emissions. In 2015, Paris was 17th on the list of bike-friendly cities; by 2019, it was 8th. Car ownership, meanwhile, dropped from 60 percent of house holds in 2001 to 35 percent in 2019. The 15-minute city figured largely in Hidalgo’s successful 2020 re-election campaign. The idea has also gained support in the U.S.It clearly won’t work everywhere: Not every city is as centralized and walkable as Paris. Some car-dominated cities like Los Angeles and Phoenix would be hard-pressed to provide everything people need within walking distance. In addition, some urban planners argue that the15-minute city could increase the separation of neighborhoods by income. Neighborhoods equipped with all the conveniences required by the 15-minute city also tend to have high housing costs and wealthier residents.Despite some resistance, the basic principles behind the 15-minute city are influencing planning in cities around the world, including Melbourne, Barcelona, Buenos Aires, Singapore, and Shanghai. Urban designer and thinker Jay Pitter says cities where basic needs are within walking distance create more individual freedom than needing to drive every where. “In a city where services are always close by,” he says, “mobility is a choice: You go where you want because you want to, not because you have to. My fight is not against the car. My fight is how we could improve the quality of life.”16.Which best describes the 15-minute city?A.Modern.B.Convenient.C.Entertaining.D.Smart.17.What’s the original intention for Paris to advocate the 15-minute city?A.To address climate issues.B.To beautify the city.C.To promote the bike industry.D.To help Hidalgo get re-elected. 18.What’s some urban planners’ worry about the 15-minute city?A.It slows the city’s expansion.B.It represents a setback for society.C.It may widen the gap between neighborhoods.D.It can cause the specialization of neighborhoods.19.What’s Jay Pitter’s attitude to the concept of 15-minute city?A.Doubtful.B.Favorable.C.Critical.D.Uninterested.Thousands of years have passed since humans discovered silk, but scientists are still finding new uses for this remarkable material. Now researchers say it could help tackle a growing environmental and health concern: Micro-plastics.Micro-plastics that are now found worldwide are increasingly recognized as a serious pollution threat, and have been found in the bloodstream of animals and people. Some of thesemicro plastics are intentionally added to a variety of products to generally protect some specific active components from being degraded by exposure to air. For example, vitamins are often delivered in the form of micro capsules packed into a pill or capsule,and herbicides(除草剂)are similarly enveloped. But the materials used today for such micro-encapsulation are plastics that stay in the environment for a long time. To date, there has been no practical, economical alternative available that would biodegrade naturally.Researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and chemical company BASF developed a silk-based biodegradable alternative to these capsules.Silk is recognized as safe for food or medical use, as it degrades naturally in the body. The silk protein used in the new alternative material is widely available and inexpensive and the silk fibers can simply be dissolved(溶解), lead researcher Benedetto Marelli says. Besides, the processing is so simple and tun-able that the resulting material can be adapted to work on existing manufacturing equipment.Replacing non-biodegradable micro-capsules with silk might not work in every case,but given the current and future challenges related to food insecurity, agricultural production, and a changing climate, the silk-based material is of great importance. Products using silk-based micro-capsules are expected to be commercially available in a few years. And the researchers will next try encapsulating active components that could require a different manufacturing approach, such as those that must remain in liquid or gas forms.20.What can be inferred from paragraph 2?A.Removing plastic pollution is a piece of cake.B.Micro-plastics can degrade quickly and naturally.C.Micro-plastics have become a severe pollution threat.D.Developing an alternative for micro-plastics is urgent.21.What’s the major concern of researchers choosing silk as an alternative?A.It is economical.B.It is biodegradable.C.It is widely available.D.It is skin-friendly.22.What’s the last paragraph mainly about concerning the silk-based material?A.Its promising future.B.Its marketing method.C.Its existing limitations.D.Its making approach.A Day Out at the City Farm Come and join us for a day of fun!

This is probably why a group of Cherokee music artists decided to create a music album (唱片) exclusively in the Cherokee language, a highly endangered Native American language. Currently, there are fewer than 2,000 fluent speakers of the language remaining in the world, and the number is declining every year.The album, tilted DOAP oaV and pronounced ‘Ah’ ‘Nuh’ ‘Duh’ ‘Nah’ ‘Lees’ ‘Gi’, means “Performers” in English. It is comprised of a range of contemporary styles, including Pop, Reggae, Country, Heavy Metal, Hip Hop, and Folk. With a planned release date of Labor Day weekend, the record company is using the platform of the National Cherokee Holiday to give this album as much exposure as possible.Jeremy Charles, a key figure in getting this album off the ground, has said that the “musicwill shine a spotlight on Cherokee artists and speakers, and increase exposure to our culture and language worldwide”. He aims for the album to be an inspiration to the next generation of Cherokee language learners. Featuring 12 Cherokee artists ranging from ages 14 to 50, you can see how this album is going to do a lot for the promotion of Cherokee music and can inspire people of any age to make music that connects with their heritage (遗产).The youngest contributor on the album, Lillian Charles, is only in 8th grade but had a major contribution to the Goth-pop song“Circus”—a song she wrote at the age of 12. It originally written in English, she worked with translators Bobbie Smith and Kathy Sierra to be able to fully express herself in Cherokee.Projects like the DOOAP oaV album bring a modern approach to revitalizing language and culture and encourage a younger audience, to get involved and start learning the Cherokee language. On average, a native language is lost forever every two weeks, and these people want to make sure that the Cherokee language isn’t one of them.27.What can we learn about the album from paragraph 2?A.It has various musical styles.B.It is titled Performers in English.C.It sings high praise of Labor Day.D.It was exposed to the public by chance.28.What’s Jeremy Charles’s expectation of the album?A.It will make a huge profit for the record company.B.It can help the 12 artists rise to fame overnight.C.It will satisfy the fans’ demand for pop music.D.It can fuel the youth’s interest in Cherokee language.29.Which can best replace the underlined word “revitalizing” in the last paragraph? A.Translating.B.Reviewing.C.Restoring.D.Creating. 30.What’s the best title of the text?A.Alarming! The Cherokee Language is DyingB.Amazing!

While Sam Clague,14, and T’nae Diamond Paisley, 12, were both in London, the British number one was in Abu Dhabi.During the world’s first holographic lesson, Ms Raducanu’s avatar (头像) appeared to feed balls to the players and gave live feedback on their shots, like‘that was fast and there was lots of topspin on that’. Even Sam said he thought she had been prerecorded at first until she spoke with him directly.Their holographic training session offers a glimpse into how advancing technology could revolutionize tennis coaching, according to Dr Ian Pearson.Dr Pearson thinks that mixed reality headsets will soon allow tennis players to feel they are playing in unusual virtual environments, like on a space station or the middle of a lake. Through 5G, the future of tennis will see increased interaction between real life tennis courts and the rich imagination we see in computer games - playing whenever, wherever and whoever you want.Full sensory virtual reality could even place the viewer inside the tennis player’s shoes in real time. Dr Pearson said: “By 2030, with active skin technology, the playing styles and even the sensations of top-level players could be captured, so that anyone could experience how it actually felt to play that game through full sensory virtual reality.”Finally, sportswear made from smart materials could allow for a digital coach powered by artificial intelligence(AI) to provide feedback on a player’s form. Dr Pearson said: “Al- controlled suits made from smart materials, such as fabrics with sensors, can help players find the perfect stroke when hitting or returning a serve by quickly learning the muscle memory of a flawless forehand. Using direct feedback from friendly virtual AI coaches, new players can develop and learn much more quickly.”34.What did Ms Raducanu do in the first holographic lesson?A.Give players a real time guidance.B.Require players to follow her shots.C.Record coaching contents in advance.D.Analyze techniques through the hologram.35.What can full sensory virtual reality make viewers do?A.Increase their imagination of sports.B.Take the place of top level players.C.Experience the feeling of players on the spot.D.Have a sense of playing in an unusual place.36.What’s Dr Pearson’s attitude towards virtual AI coaches?A.Critical.B.Skeptical.C.Cautious.D.Favorable. 37.What might be the best title for the text?A.The future of coaching.B.The threat from AI to coaches.C.The first live coaching online、D.The appearance of digital coaches.William Dunn is the founder of Take a Kid Fishing, Inc, a nonprofit organization in Lakeland, Florida, which teaches poor and fatherless kids through the sport of fishing.A dozen years ago, inspired by his six-year-old fatherless neighbor, Cam ran, who got angry and shouted at his mom, William asked Cam ran’s mom for permission to take Cam ran fishing. Cam ran was “hooked” from that first trip. The two fished together several times a week, and William saw positive changes in Cam ran’s behavior. “That’s when I realized that I had the duty to help fatherless kids,” he says.On weekends, William and a few other volunteers take 20 to 25 kids out fishing on a rental boat, which was supported by the captain of the Double Eagle. Many have never been fishing or even on a boat, so William—or Big Will, as the kids call him — starts by teaching the basics. Then come the life lessons that fishing offers: patience, teamwork and the simple joy of relaxingin the outdoors. Take a Kid Fishing, Inc. has taken more than 600 fishing trips with almost 2,000 kids who don’t have a father in their lives.He wants to share his love of fishing with kids who don’t have a father to take them. “I just want to show them that I care about them, that I’m there for them,” he says. Because many kids go on multiple trips, William is able to build relationships with them. He and Cam ran, now 20, still regularly fish together, and Camran sees Big Will as a father figure.Take a Kid Fishing, Inc., has a huge impact, but it started because William wanted to help one kid. Do you know a child who might benefit from your friendship? Introduce them to fishing or another hobby you enjoy. You can make a great difference to their life.38.What inspired William Dunn to found Take a Kid Fishing, Inc.?A.Kids’ passion for fishing.B.Positive changes of a fatherless neighbor. C.Unfortunate experiences of fatherless kids.D.Behavior of other volunteers to help fatherless kids.39.What can we infer from Paragraph 3?A.Many kids expected fishing experiences.B.Few kids participated in the fishing trips. C.The organization taught more than basic skills.D.The fishing boat was offered by other volunteers.40.We do we know about William Dunn from the text?A.He is an experienced captain.B.He thinks company matters in kids’ lives. C.He had an unhappy childhood as a fatherless kid.D.He wanted to raise money for the fatherless kids.41.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.Fishing Changes Fatherless Kids’ Life B.Friendship Has a Great Impact on Kids C.Fishing Offers Kids the Joy of Relaxing D.The Love of Fishing Bonds Family TogetherIntroduced species have a bad reputation. It has been believed that the species mix in a particular place should remain as unchanged as possible. But this is just an opinion. Other opinions are possible. A study published recently by Dov Sax of Brown University, thus asks how the benefits of introduced species might be better assessed, so that opinions can be more informed. Specifically, he identifies several aspects for that.Initially, whether introduced species provide direct human advantage is taken into account. Dr. Sax and his colleagues ignored crops, since their benefits are obvious. But they included transplanted grass species that have gone wild,yet provide grazing(牧草)for domestic animals, and introduced forest trees that produce wood for construction.Another factor is their possible benefit to the ecosystem into which the introduction has happened. Such introduction is sometimes made to reduce the risk of a localised species becoming extinct. Pyne’s ground plum(李子),native to a handful of sites in the central basins of Tennessee but now transplanted to others, falls into this category.The last value is experienced on an emotional rather than a practical level. Lots of people feel。

山东省2015年高考阅读表达专项训练(六)阅读下面的短文并用英语回答问题,然后将答案写到答题卡相应的位置上(请注意问题后的字数要求)。

AIf English means endless new words, difficult grammar and sometimes strange pronunciation, you are wrong. Haven't you noticed that you have become smarter since you started to learn a language?According to a new study by a British university, learning a second language can lead to an increase in your brainpower. Researchers found that learning other languages changes gray matter. This is the area of the brain which processes information. It is similar to the way that exercise builds muscles.The study also found the effect is greater on the younger people who learn a second language.A team led by Dr Andrea Mechelli, from University College London, took a group of Britons (英国土著人) who only spoke English. They were compared with a group of "early bilinguals" who had learnt a second language before the age of five, as well as a number of later learners.Scans showed that grey matter density (密度)in the brain was greater in bilinguals than in people without _______ . But the longer a person waited before mastering a new language, the smaller the difference is."Our findings suggest that the structure of the brain is changed by the experience of learning a second language," said the scientists.It means that the change itself increases the ability to learn.Professor Dylan Vaughan Jones of the University of Wales has researched the link between bilingualism and maths skills. "Having two languages gives you two windows on the world and makes the brain more flexible," he said. "You are actually going beyond language and have a better understanding of different ideas."1.

B[1] It’s good to make a mistake, and here is why. First of all, mistakes area clear sign that you are trying new things. It’s always good to try new things because when you are trying new things you are growing. If you never try anything new, how can you improve? How can you expand? The simple answer is “You can’t”. Look around you. Almost everything valuable you see in your world is the result of _____________.[2] Another good thing about mistakes is this: when you are making mistakes, you are learning. Consider this: Edison failed 10000 times before he perfected the light bulb. When asked how it felt to fail that many times, he remarked that he hadn’t failed 10000 times, but rather had learned 10000 things that didn’t work.[3] Finally, when you make a mistake you are much closer to success. Why? Because when all is said and done, you will have tried only a few things before you succeed. Every time you made a mistake, you got rid of one bad thing and stepped closer to success.[4] But this all doesn’t mean that you should go ahead without considering the consequences of a mistake. Instead, when you try something new, you have to be willing to set some reasonable limits so that you will have opportunities to try again in case that it doesn’t work out as you expected. We all have limited resources so don’t blow them all at one time. Realize that it probably won’t be perfect the first time and use these resources appropriately so you can learn, improve, and try it again. Only by using your mistakes in this way can you make significant advances in your career.[5] There is an old saying that goes, “If you’re not making mistake, you’re not trying hard enough.” So go forth and make mist akes.1. List three reasons why making a mistake is good for you. (Please answer within5 words for each blank.)① _______________________________________________________________② _______________________________________________________________③ _______________________________________________________________2.

(Please answer within 5 words.) _______________________________________________________________4. Which sentence in the text is the closest in meaning to the following one? You should take its bad results into account though making a mistake is good. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________5. Translate the underlined sentence in Paragraph 3 into Chinese.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________1. ① Trying something new ② Learning something ③ Getting closer to success 解析:封闭型问题考查考生搜索信息和概括的能力。
