AInternational Robotics Forum(论坛)Tokyo Big Sight, Tokyo, Japan, December 4-5The Robotics Society of Japan ( RSJ) , to provide opportunities for young robot lovers to learn more about industrial and

other through robots.Therefore, we look forward to your active participation.The event will take place two days.On the morning of Day One, Prof.Shin’ ichi Yuta of the Shibaura Institute of Technology will give a lecture on basic mobile robotics and learning through robots.This will be followed by a talk by Mr.Kazuhiko Yokoyama of Yasukawa Electric Corporation who will explain the mechanism and

excitement of advanced robot technologies.On the rooming of Day Two, you will present your study and investigation results.On the afternoon of Day Two,as the final event, awards will be given by the RSJ to groups that have given outstanding presentations.We hope that many future robot researchers and engineers will be born today.21.Who is the Conference intended for?A.The RSJ professors.B.Robot lovers of all ages.C.Japanese robot researchers.D.Senior high school students worldwide.22.When can the participants study the real robots?A.On the morning of December 4.B.On the morning of December 5.C.On the afternoon of December 4.D.On the afternoon of December 5.23.What type of writing is this text?A.A research paper.B.An exhibition guide.C.An announcement.D.A robotics show guide.BTwo of the saddest words in the English language are if only.I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words, because they convey regret, lost opportunities, mistakes, and disappointment.My father is famous in our family for saying, Take the extra minute to do it right.,’ I always try to live by the extra minute rule.When my children were young and likely to cause accidents, I always thought about what I could do to avoid an if only moment,whether it was something minor like moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a counter, or something that required a little more work such as taping padding (衬垫)onto the sharp comers of a glass coffee table.I don’t only avoid those if only moments when i t comes to safety.It,s equally important to avoid if only*’ in ourto say I love you or I forgive you.When my father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday,I told him that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldn’t be here.But then I thought aboutthe fact that he* s 84 years old and I realized that I shouldn’t give up an opportunity to see him.I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all.I know there will still be occasions when I have to say if" only about something, but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality.And even though it takes an extra minute to do something right, or it occasionally takes an hour or two in my busy schedule to make a personal connection, I know that I’m doing the right thing.I’m buying myself peace of mind and that’s the best kind of insurance for my emotional well-being.24.Which of the following is an example of the extra minute rule?A.Start the car the moment everyone is seated.B.Leave the room for a minute with the iron working.C.Wait for an extra minute so that the steak tastes better.D.Move an object out of the way before it trips someone.A.keep her appointment with the eye doctorB.meet her father who was already an old man.C.join in the holiday celebration of the companyD.finish her work before the deadline approached .A.abandonedB.lackedC.avoidedD.wasted27.What is the best title for the passage?A.The Emotional Well-beingB.The Two Saddest Words.C.The Most Useful RuleD.The Peace of MindCIf a woman has an extra piece of cake,don ‘t blame it on greed, blame it on her brain.Scientists have found that women’s brains react to food very differently 一and much more strongly 一thanmen’ s.Academics found that decades of dieting pressure on women and advertising have programmed certain parts of the female brain to react strongly when faced with any kind of food.Men,on the other hand, are not usually as obsessive (着迷的)about what they eat.Dr.Rudolf Uher and his colleagues at the Institute of Psychiatry in Ki ng’s College London used brain scanning technology,known as functional magnetic resonance imaging ( FMRI),to look at the brains of eighteen men and women.The volunteers were given images of food to look at, as well as food to taste.Their brain reactions were observed by the scientists.They found that the female brains reacted much more strongly than those of males.The same reaction did not happen when they were shown non-food images.The team believe this means women think more about food than men tend to.Dr.Uher said, “This could be related to biological differences between men and women.But the more likely explanation is that women have a more complicated reaction to food because of social pressure.”Professor Carey Cooper,psychology and health professor at Lancaster University,said,“for centuries women have had a providing role 一preparing and cooking food for their families.And it’s part of that role to make sure the food is safe.They will therefore be much more sensitive to food than men are, and I would not be surprised if that was now built into their DNA.If the female brain react to food because it historically has developed neural (神经的)pathways to do this, then food will be the way they express their stress.Food actually,is a comfort for women.”But other experts have said that more research must be done before the results can be proved.American scientist Angelo del Parigi of the John B.Pierce Laboratory in New Haven, Connecticut, said, “Looking at an FMRI alone cannot make sure whether the stronger reaction in women is due to innate (天生的)differences or a learned process.’’A.FMRI’s effectiveness on women and menB.women’s and men’s reaction to different imagesC.vol unteers’ reaction to food before and after mealsD.volunteers’ reaction to different kinds of food29.In Dr.Uher’s opinion, women react more strongly to food than men most probably because they_________ A.told to do so for a long timeB.influenced by advertisementsC.forced by powerful social influencesD.born to do so due to biological reasonsA.turn to food when they feel sadB.are stressed because of food safetyC.accept their social role from the heartD.are satisfied with preparing food for their families31.What was Angelo del Parigi’ s attitude towards the research results?A.Surprised.B.Uninterested.C.Doubtful.D.CuriousDTeens who are preparing to undergo cosmetic surgery often have unrealistic expectations.The growing numbers of makeover television shows which make cosmetic surgery seem simple,have encouraged adolescents to pursue surgery to improve their physical appearance.As a result, more teenagers are going under the knife to achieve a desired look.When teens feel the need to have plastic surgery, they believe that it is not a huge deal, but they may not be mature enough to make such a life altering decision.If teens feel inadequate before surgery,they will most likely feel disappointed afterwards.Not only is surgery complex and risky for mature adults,it is extremely dangerous for younger people,and some doctors are performing these procedures on kids as young as fourteen!The cost of procedures can add up to thousands of dollars.Insurance does not cover the costs of these procedures.Teenagers often pay for surgery themselves 一a very costly purchase for a young person.Not only can surgery become addictive for insecure teens,the consequence can be disappointing.When surgery takes an unexpected wrong turn, irreparable (不可挽回的)damage can occur.Any surgery on a young,undeveloped person has a risk of complication (并发症)such as infection (感染),which can lead to death.Even if .there are no complications, there is no guarantee that surgery will provide the perfect nose or sculpted body.No matter how minor the procedure, it is not as effortless as it appears.Of course, there are cases where plastic surgery is appropriate.If a child has a serious injury or scarring from an accident,it can be beneficial.In all cases, parents must be involved in the process for the welfare of their child, and must guide them in the right direction.Fortunately, parents or legal guardians (监护人)must sign documents allowing their child to have plastic surgery.Doctors also need to be a part of the decision.Most experienced and trust-worthy physicians turn down the opportunity to operate on a teenager unnecessarily.Plastic surgery is a life-changing experience.Hopefully, more teens will realize that there is more to a person than physical beauty, and learn to accept themselves for who they are.32.Teenagers are encouraged to have plastic surgery by _________.A.some surgeonsB.TV show hostsC.their teen friendsD.lots of TV programs33.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A.Plastic surgery being too costly for teens.B.The hidden danger in having plastic surgery.C.The development of techniques of plastic surgery.D.Plastic surgery making teens prettier without effort34.The author may think a teenager can consider having plastic surgery if he/she _______ A.has an ugly scarB.is not very beautifulC.is supported by their parentsD.has got a doctor* s permission35.What is the author s general attitude towards teens having plastic surgery?A.Disapproving.B.Supportive.C.Doubtful.D.Curious.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

河北省衡水市2016届普通高等学校招生全国统一考试模拟试题(三)英语
2016好题精选模拟卷三第I卷第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15题;每题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
AAs a young woman who was always interested in style, I got lucky in interning(实习) with a fashion company in Tokyo, last summer.I worked as an assistant in the Business Planning Department, helping with marketing for the 2007 Spring/Summer collections. Fashion is a beautiful industry. But against my expectation, it also has lots of ordinary work. Every day, I would do sample testing, prepare the brochure for future launches, and meet with customers and visitors.Japanese companies had a traditional work style. We had a meeting every morning at 9 o'clock. Every Monday, all employees, including those in other parts of Japan, would take part in a conference call. Every afternoon, after finishing work, each ofus would say goodbye to every manager in the company, which took more than five minutes.All of this kept me fresh. And the strict work atmosphere caused me to work harder. At the end of last August, the company's 2007 Spring/Summer collection started with a big show and was very successful. Lots of customers showed an interest in our products, including a businessman from Hong Kong.He went to our company for more details on the products, but he couldn't speak Japanese and none of the staff spoke good English.Just when the situation seemed helpless, I offered to give it a try. I was a Japanese major, but I had also practiced my English often. My translation job was praised by both the customer and my boss. And the guest made a big purchase.The two-month internship taught me a lot about business. And the pay - 150,000 yen, or over 10,000 yuan a month- was enough to cover my daily living costs in Tokyo.Moreover, the experience made me stand out. Every interviewer I've spoken with showed an interest and discussed my internship with me.And thanks to this experience, I've found a good job in one of the Big Four accounting firms and will start working this summer.21. Before she interned(实习) in the fashion company in Tokyo, the writer ______A. did not like the fashion.B. imagined it being beautiful and simply.C. didn’t expect a fashion industry had lots of work as ordinary as normal.D. was nervous about it.22. What would each of the employees in Japanese Companies do every afternoon?A. They do sample testing.B. They meet with customers and visitors.C. They prepare the brochure for future launches.D. They say good bye to every manager.23. Why does the writer work harder?A. Because she is often kept freshB. Because Japanese traditional strict work style causes her to.C. Because a meeting every morning is held.D. Because they hold a conference call every Monday.24. What can you learn from the passage?A. Internship usually plays an important role in finding a good job.B. Chinese are good at English.C. Japanese are good at spoken English.D. And the pay the writer got was enough for her future life.BA Grassroots RemedyMost of us spend our lives seeking the natural world. To this end, we walk the dog, play golf, go fishing, sit in the garden, drink outside rather than inside the pub, have a picnic, live in the suburbs, go to the seaside, buy a weekend place in the country. The most popular leisure activity in Britain is going for a walk. And when joggers (慢跑者) jog, they don’t run the streets. Every one of them instinctively heads to the park or the river. It is my profound belief that not only do we all need nature, but we all seek nature, whether we know we are doing so or not.But despite this, our children are growing up nature-deprived (丧失). I spent my boyhood climbing trees on Streatham Common, South London. These days, children are robbed of these ancient freedoms, due to problems like crime, traffic, the loss of the open spaces and odd new perceptions about what is best for children, that is to say, things that can be bought, rather than things that can be found.The truth is to be found elsewhere. A study in the US: families had moved to better housing and the children were assessed for ADHD—attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (多动症). Those whose accommodation had more natural views showed an improvement of 19%; those who had the same improvement in material surroundings but no nice view improved just 4%.A study in Sweden indicated that kindergarten children who could play in a natural environment had less illness and greater physical ability than children used only to a normal playground.A US study suggested that when a school gave children access to a natural environment, academic levels were raised across the entire school.Another study found that children play differently in anatural environment. In playgrounds, children create a hierarchy (等级) based on physical abilities, with the tough ones taking the lead. But when a grassy area was planted with bushes, the children got much more into fantasy play, and the social hierarchy was now based on imagination and creativity.Most bullying (恃强凌弱) is found in schools where there is a tarmac (柏油碎石) playground; the least bullying is in a natural area that the children are encouraged to explore. This reminds me unpleasantly of Sunnyhill School in Streatham, with its harsh tarmac, where I used to hang about in corners fantasising about wildlife.But children are frequently discouraged from involvement with natural spaces, for health and safety reasons, for fear that they might get dirty or that they might cause damage. So, instead, the damage is done to the children themselves: not to their bodies but to their souls.One of the great problems of modern childhood is ADHD, now increasingly and expensively treated with drugs. Yet one study after another indicates that contact with nature gives huge benefits to ADHD children. However, we spend money on drugsrather than on green places.The life of old people is measurably better when they have access to nature. The increasing emphasis for the growing population of old people is in quality rather than quantity of years. And study after study finds that a garden is the single most important thing in finding that quality.In wider and more difficult areas of life, there is evidence to indicate that natural surroundings improve all kinds of things. Even problems with crime and aggressive behaviour are reduced when there is contact with the natural world.Dr William Bird, researcher from the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds, states in his study, “A natural environment can reduce violent behaviour because its restorative process helps reduce anger and impulsi ve behaviour.” Wild places need encouraging for this reason, no matter how small their contribution.We tend to look on nature conservation as some kind of favour that human beings are granting to the natural world. The error here is far too deep: not only do humans need nature for themselves, but the very idea that humanity and the natural worldare separable things is profoundly damaging.Human beings are a species of mammals (哺乳动物). For seven million years they lived on the planet as part of nature. Our ancestral selves miss the natural world and long for contact with non-human life. Anyone who has patted a dog, stroked a cat, sat under a tree with a pint of beer, given or received a bunch of flowers or chosen to walk through the park on a nice day, understands that.We need the wild world. It is essential to our well-being, our health, our happiness. Without the wild world we are not more but less civilised. Without other living things around us we are less than human.Five ways to find harmony with the natural worldWalk: Break the rhythm of permanently being under a roof. Get off a stop earlier, make a circuit of the park at lunchtime, walk the child to and from school, get a dog, feel yourself moving in moving air, look, listen, absorb.Sit: Take a moment, every now and then, to be still in an open space. In the garden, anywhere that’s not in the office, anywhere out of the house, away from the routine. Sit under atree, look at water, feel refreshed, ever so slightly renewed.Drink: The best way to enjoy the natural world is by yourself; the second best way is in company. Take a drink outside with a good person, a good gathering: talk with the sun and the wind with birdsong for background.Learn: Expand your boundaries. Learn five species of bird, five butterflies, five trees, five bird songs. That way, you see and hear more: and your mind responds gratefully to the greater amount of wildness in your life.Travel: The places you always wanted to visit: by the seaside, in the country, in the hills. Take a weekend break, a day-trip, get out there and do it: for the scenery, for the way through the woods, for the birds, for the bees. Go somewhere special and bring specialness home. It lasts forever, after all.25. What does the author say people prefer for their children nowadays?A. Personal freedom.B. Things that are natural.C. Urban surroundings.D.

She'd wake up early, turn on her laptop and chat on Internet dating sites and instant-messaging programs – leaving her bed for only brief intervals. Her household bills piled up, along with the dishes and dirty laundry, but it took near-constant complaints from her four daughters before she realized she had a problem."I was starting to feel like my whole world was falling apart –kind of slipping into a depression," said Carla. "I knew that if I didn't get off the dating sites, I'd just keep going," detaching (使脱离) herself further from the outside world.Toebe's conclusion: She felt like she was "addicted" to the Internet. She's not alone.Concern about excessive Internet use isn't new. As far back as 1995, articles in medical journals and the establishment of a Pennsylvania treatment center for overusers generated interest in the subject. There's still no consensus on how much time online constitutes too much or whether addiction is possible.But as reliance on the Web grows, there are signs that the question is getting more serious attention: Last month, a study published in CNS Spectrums claimed to be the first large-scalelook at excessive Internet use. The American Psychiatric Association may consider listing Internet addiction in the next edition of its diagnostic manual. And scores of online discussion boards have popped up on which people discuss negative experiences tied to too much time on the Web."There's no question that there're people who're seriously in trouble because they're overdoing their Internet involvement," said psychiatrist (精神科医生) Ivan Goldberg. Goldberg calls the problem a disorder rather than a true addiction.Jonathan Bishop, a researcher in Wales specializing in online communities, is more skeptical. "The Internet is an environment," he said. "You can't be addicted to the environment." Bishop describes the problem as simply a matter of priorities, which can be solved by encouraging people to prioritize other life goals and plans in place of time spent online.The new CNS Spectrums study was based on results of a nationwide telephone survey of more than 2,500 adults. Like the 2005 survey, this one was conducted by Stanford Universityresearchers.About 6% of respondents reported that "their relationships suffered because of excessive Internet use." About 9% attempted to conceal "nonessential Internet use," and nearly 4% reported feeling "preoccupied by the Internet when offline."About 8% said they used the Internet as a way to escape problems, and almost 14% reported they "found it hard to stay away from the Internet for several days at a time.""The Internet problem is still in its infancy," said Elias Aboujaoude, a Stanford professor. No single online activity is to blame for excessive use, he said. "They're online in chat rooms, checking e-mail, or writing blogs. [The problem is] not limited to porn (色情) or gambling" websites.Excessive Internet use should be defined not by the number of hours spent online but "in terms of losses," said Maressa Orzack, a Harvard University professor. "If it's a loss [where] you're not getting to work, and family relationships are breaking down as a result, then it's too much."Since the early 1990s, several clinics have been established in the U. S. to treat heavy Internet users. They include the Center for Internet Addiction Recovery and the Center forInternet Behavior.The website for Orzack's center lists the following among the psychological symptoms of computer addiction:● Having a sense of well-being (幸福) or excitement while at the computer.● Longing for more and more time at the computer.● Neglect of family and friends.● Feeling empty, depressed or irritable when not at the computer.● Lying to employers and family about activities.● Inability to stop t he activity.● Problems with school or job.Physical symptoms listed include dry eyes, backaches, skipping meals, poor personal hygiene (卫生) and sleep disturbances.People who struggle with excessive Internet use maybe depressed or have other mood disorders, Orzack said. When she discusses Internet habits with her patients, they often report that being online offers a "sense of belonging, and escape, excitement [and] fun," she said. "Some people sayrelief…because they find themselves so relaxed."Some parts of the Internet seem to draw people in more than others. Internet gamers spend countless hours competing in games against people from all over the world. One such game, called World of Warcraft, is cited on many sites by posters complaining of a "gaming addiction."Andrew Heidrich, an education network administrator from Sacramento, plays World of Warcraft for about two to four hours every other night, but that's nothing compared with the 40 to 60 hours a week he spent playing online games when he was in college. He cut back only after a full-scale family intervention (干预), in which relatives told him he'd gained weight."There's this whole culture of competition that sucks people in" with online gaming, said Heidrich, now a father of two. "People do it at the expense of everything that was a constant in their lives." Heidrich now visits websites that discuss gaming addiction regularly "to remind myself to keep my love for online games in check."Toebe also regularly visits a site where posters discuss Internet overuse. In August, when she first realized she had aproblem, she posted a message on a Yahoo Internet addiction group with the subject line: "I have an Internet Addiction.""I'm self-employed and need the Internet for my work, but I'm failing to accomplish my work,to take care of my home, to give attention to my children," she wrote in a message sent to the group."I have no money or insurance to get professional help;I can't even pay my mortgage (抵押贷款) and face losing everything."Since then, Toebe said, she has kept her promise to herself to cut back on her Internet use. "I have a boyfriend now, and I'm not interested in online dating," she said by phone last week. "It's a lot better now."29. What eventually made Carla Toebe realize she was spending too much time on the Internet?A. Her daughter's repeated complaints.B. Fatigue resulting from lack of sleep.C. The poorly managed state of her house.D. The high financial costs adding up.30. What does the author say about excessive Internet use?A. People should be warned of its harmful consequences.B. It has become virtually inevitable.C. It has been somewhat exaggerated.D. People haven't yet reached agreement on its definition.31. Jonathan Bishop believes that the Internet overuse problem can be solved if people ______.A. try to improve the Internet environmentB. become aware of its serious consequencesC. can realize what is important in lifeD. can reach a consensus on its definitionDColleges taking another look at value of merit-based aidGood grades and high tests scores still matter—a lot—to many colleges as they award financial aid.But with low-income students projected to make up an ever-larger share of the college-bound population in coming years, some schools are re-examining whether that aid, typically known as “merit aid”, is the most effective use of precious institutional dollars.George Washington University in Washington, D.C., forexample, said last week that it would cut the value of its average merit scholarships by about one-third and reduce the number of recipients(接受者), pouring the savings, about $2.5 million, into need-based aid. Allegheny College in Meadville, Pa., made a similar decision three years ago.Now, Hamilton College in Clinton, N.Y., says it will phase out merit scholarships altogether. No current merit-aid recipients will lose their scholarships, but need-based aid alone will be awarded beginning with students entering in fall 2008.Not all colleges offer merit aid; generally, the more selective a school, the less likely it is to do so. Harvard and Princeton, for example, offer generous need-based packages, but many families who don’t meet need eligibility(资格)have been willing to pay whatever they must for a big-name school.For small regional colleges that struggle just to fill seats, merit aid can be an important revenue-builder because many recipients still pay enough tuition dollars over and above the scholarship amount to keep the institution running.But for rankings-conscious schools in between, merit aid hasserved primarily as a tool to recruit top students and to improve their academic profits. “They’re trying to buy students,” says Skidmore College economist Sandy Baum.Studies show merit aid also tends to benefit disproportionately students who could afford to enroll without it.“As we look to the future, we see a more pressing need to invest in need-based aid,” says Monica Inzer, dean of admission and financial aid at Hamilton, which has offered merit scholarships for 10 years. During that time, it rose in US News & World Report’s ranking of the best liberal arts colleges, from 25 to 17.Merit aid, which benefited about 75 students a year, or about 4% of its student body, at a cost of about $ 1 million a year, “served us well,” Inzer says, but “to be discounting the price for families that don’t need financial aid doesn’t feel right any more.”Need-based aid remains by far the largest share of all student aid, which includes state, federal and institutional grants. But merit aid, offered primarily by schools and states,is growing faster, both overall and at the institutional level.Between 1995-96 and 2003-04, institutional merit aid alone increased 212%, compared with 47% for need-based grants. At least 15 states also offer merit aid, typically in a bid to enroll top students in the state’s public institutions.But in recent years, a growing chorus(异口同声)of critics has begun pressuring schools to drop the practice. Recent decisions by Hamilton and others may be “a sign that people are starting to realize that there’s this destructive competition going on,” says Baum, co-author of a recent College Report that raises concerns about the role of institutional aid not based on need.David Laird, president of the Minnesota Private College Council, says many of his schools would like to reduce their merit aid but fear that in doing so, they would lose top students to their competitors.“No one can take one-sided action,” says Laird, who is exploring whether to seek an exemption(豁免)from federal anti-trust laws so member colleges can discuss how they could jointly reduce merit aid, “This is a merry-go-round that’sgoing very fast, and none of the institutions believe they can sustain the risks of trying to break away by themselves.”A complicating factor is that merit aid has become so popular with middle-income families, who don’t qualify for need-based aid, that many have come to depend on it. And, as tuitions continue to increase, the line between merit and need blurs.That’s one reason Allegheny College doesn’t plan to drop merit aid entirely.“We still believe in rewarding superior achievements and know that these top students truly value the scholars hip,” says Scott Friedhoff, Allegheny’s vice president for enrollment.Emory University in Atlanta, which boasts a $4.7 billion endowment(捐赠), meanwhile, is taking another approach. This year, it announced it would eliminate loans for needy students and cap them for middle-income families. At the same time, it would expand its 28-year-old merit program.“Yeah, we’re playing the merit game,” acknowledges Tom Lancaster, associate dean for undergraduate education. But it has its strong point, too, he says. “The fact of the matter is, it’s not just about the lowest-income people. It’s the averageAmerican middle-class family who’s being priced out of the market.”*A few words about merit-based aid:Merit-based aid is aid offered to students who achieve excellence in a given area, and is generally known as academic, athletic and artistic merit scholarships.Academic merit scholarships are based on students’ grades, GPA and overall academic performance during high school. They are typically meant for students going straight to college right after high school. However, there are scholarships for current college students with exceptional grades as well. These merit scholarships usually help students pay tuition bills, and they can be renewed each year as long as the recipients continue to qualify. In some cases, students may need to be recommended by their school or a teacher as part of the qualification process.Athletic merit scholarships are meant for students that excel(突出)in sports of any kind, from football to track and field events. Recommendation for these scholarships is required, since exceptional athletic performance has to be recognized by a coach or a referee(裁判). Applicants need to send in a tapecontaining their best performance.Artistic merit scholarships require that applicants excel in a given artistic area. This generally includes any creative field such as art, design, fashion, music, dance or writing. Applying for artistic merit scholarships usually requires that students submit a portfolio(选辑)of some sort, whether that includes a collection of artwork, a recording of a musical performance or a video of them dancing.32. With more and more low-income students pursuing higher education, a number of colleges are ________.A. offering students more merit-based aidB. revising their financial aid policiesC. increasing the amount of financial aidD. changing their admission processes33. The chief purpose of rankings-conscious colleges in offering merit aid is to ______.A. improve teaching qualityB. boost their enrollmentsC. attract good studentsD. increase their revenues34. In recent years, merit-based aid has increased much faster than need-based aid due to ______.A. more government funding to collegesB. fierce competition among institutionsC. the increasing number of top studentsD. schools’ improved financial situations35. What is the attitude of many private colleges toward merit aid, according to David Laird?A. They would like to see it reduced.B. They regard it as a necessary evil.C. They think it does more harm than good.D. They consider it unfair to middle-class families.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

They conducted a survey and found out that more than half of the British population regularly took pictures of their meals. So they realized it was a better way to advertise their new dining range.The pop-up diner was open in Shoo, London for three days in May, and is now moving to other major UK cities. They serve two-course meals that customers don’t have to pay for, if they photo and Instagram it.The restaurant is a part of Birds Eye’s “Food for L ife,”campaign, a new marketing project that aims at changing the way people look at frozen food. “Taking photos of food enables people to show off and to share their mealtime moments—from the everyday to the special,” said marketing director Margaret Jobbing.The reaction to The Picture House has been great so far. And the pay-by-picture concept has proven to be an effective way. Alternative payment methods are actually gaining popularity among a lot of businesses. Last year, in a cafe in Germany customers pay by how much time they spend there, not by what they eat.21.Instagram probably is ________.A.a restaurant free of charge B.a campaign of “Food for Life”C.a new marketing project D.a program used to share photos22.“The Picture House” encourages sharing photos of its food to ________.A.raise the price of frozen food B.attract more customersC.create a new social media trend D.reward the regular customers23.Which of the following can serve as the best title for the passage? ________A.No Need to Pay. B.The Pop-up Diner.C.Pay by Picture. D.Food for Life.BEvery day born a decade from now will have its genetic code(基因编码)mapped at birth, the head of the world’s leading genome sequencing(基因图谱)company has predicted.A complete DNA read – out for every newborn will be technically possible and affordable in less than five years, promising a revolution in healthcare, says Jay Flatly, the chief executive of Illumine. Only social and legal problems are likely to delay the age of “genome sequences,”or genetic profiles. By 2019 it will have become routine to map infants’ genes when they are born, Dr. Flatly told The Times.This will open a new approach to medicine, by which conditions such as high blood pressure and heart disease can be predicted and prevented and drugs used more safely and effectively.A baby’s genome can be discovered at birth by a blood test. By examining a person’s genome, it is possible to identify raised risks of developing diseases such as cancers. Those at high risk can then be screened more regularly, or given drugs or dietary advice to lower their chances of becoming ill.Personal genomes could also be used to ensure that patients get the medicine that is most likely to work for them and least likely to have side – effects.The development, however, will raise legal concerns about privacy and access to individuals’ genetic records.“Bad things can be done with the genome. It could predict something about someone – and you could possibly hand the information to their employer or their insurance company.” said Dr. Flatly.“People have to recognize that this horse is out of the barn, and that your genome probably can’t be protected, because everywhere you go you leave your genome behind. Complete genetic privacy, however, is unlikely to be possible”, he added.As the benefits become clearer, however, he believes that most people will want their genomes read and interpreted. The risk is nothing compared with the gain.24.In the first two paragraphs, the author mainly wants to tell us about ________.A.the significant progress in medicineB.the promise of a leading companyC.the information of babies’ genes.D.the research of medical scientists25.Which of the following is a problem caused by this approach? ________A.The delaying in discovering DNA.B.The risk of developing diseases at birth.C.The side effects of medicine on patients.D.The letting out of personal genetic information.26.What does the underlined sentence “this horse is out of the barn” mean? ________A.Genetic mapping technique has been widely used.B.people can’t stop genetic mapping technique advancing.C.People are eager to improve genetic mapping technique.D.Genetic mapping technique is too horrible to control.27.What’s Dr. Flatly ’s attitude towards the technology? ________A.Tolerant. B.Conservative. C.Positive. D.Doubtful.CAlthough Paris is often considered the city of romance, close to a million adults who call it home are single. Many single people say that France’s capital is one of the most difficult places to meet people. The complaints(抱怨)of this lonely group have inspired a new phenomenon known as “supermarket dating.” At Galleries Lafayette Gourmet, singles can shop for more than just the items on their grocery list. They can look for someone who has blue eyes, brown hair, and is 1.8meters tall, or whatever may be on their romantic shopping list.At this Paris location, single people of all ages can schedule their shopping for Thursday nights between 6:30 and 9:00 p. m. When they walk through the door, they pick up a purple basket to advise that they are looking for love. They try to arrive early because the baskets disappear quickly, and then they have to wait in line for their turn to wander the store aisles(过道).With purple baskets in hand, shoppers can consider their romantic options while they pick out their groceries. When they are ready to pay, they can go to the checkout line for singles who want to chat.Most of the people who look for love in the supermarket are skeptical of Internet dating. They know that it is easy to embellish(美化)one’s appearance or to lie about one’s age over the Internet. The supermarket, on the other hand, is considered a safe and casual environment in which to meet a potential match. In addition, what one finds in another’s grocery basket can say a thing or two about that person’s character or intentions. Buying pet food can be a man’s way of showing a potential match that he has a sensitive side. Women who fill their baskets with low-fat food show their healthy style of living. These days it’s possible to find much more than food at a grocery store.28.What do many single people in Pairs complain about? ________A.The difficulty in meeting people.B.The idea of supermarket dating.C.The items on their grocery list.D.The inconvenience in shopping.29.Which of the following can be inferred but is not clearly stated in the second paragraph? ________A.The dating supermarket is located in Paris.B.The dating supermarket is open only on Thursday evenings.C.People looking for love must get a basket of a particular colorD.The dating supermarket has very good business.30.How do love shoppers meet one another? ________A.They schedule their meeting in advance.B.They go through a special checkout.C.They pick out their groceries with great care.D.They dial the phone numbers on their shopping items.31.Why do the people prefer the supermarket dating to Internet dating? ________A.The supermarket dating is more convenient.B.The supermarket dating is more casual.C.The supermarket dating can be trusted more.D.The supermarket dating is less expensive.DImagine that you’re looking at your company-issued smartphone and you notice an e-mail from LinkedIn: “These companies are looking for candidates like you!” You aren’t necessarily searching for a job, but you’re always open to opportunities, so out of curiosity, you click on the link. A few minutes later your boss appears at your desk. “We’ve noticed that you’re spending more time on LinkedIn lately, so I wanted to talk with you about your career and whether you’re happy here,” she says. Uh-oh.It’s an awkward scene. Attrition(损耗)has always been expensive for companies, but in many industries the cost of losing good workers is rising, owing to tight labor markets. Thus companies are intensifying(增强)their efforts to predict which workers are at high risk of leaving so that managers can try to stop them. Tactics(策略)range from electronic monitor to sophisticated(复杂的)analyses of employees’ social media lives.Some of this work may be a reason to let employees to quit. In general, people leave their jobs because they don’t like their boss, don’t see opportunities for promotion or growth, or are offered a higher pay; these reasons have held steady for years.New research conducted by CEB, a Washington-based technology company, looks not just at why workers quit but also at when. “We’ve learned that what really affects people is their sense of how they’re doing compared with other people in their peer group, or with where they thought they would be at a certain point in life, says Brian Krupp, who heads CEB’s HR practice. “We’ve learned to focus on moments that allow people to make these comparisons.”Technology also provides clues about which star employees might be eyeing the exit. Companies can tell whether employees using work computers or phones are spending time on (or even just opening e-mails from)career websites, and research shows that more firms are paying attention to these things. Large companies have also begun tracking badge swipes(浏览痕迹)—employees’ use of an ID to enter and exit the building or the parking garage—to identify patterns that suggest a worker may be interviewing for a job.32.From the first paragraph, we can infer LinkedIn is________A.an e-mail B.a job from the InternetC.a professional social network D.a world-famous company33.What’s the main idea of the second paragraph? ________A.The cost of losing good workers is rising.B.Companies are stricter with workers than before.C.Measures have been taken to find the potential workers who want to quit.D.Finding new jobs has been a trend for most workers.34.According to the research by CEB, which of the following might be the most probable reason for workers to quit their jobs? ________A.They don’t like their bosses. B.Workers are always doing comparisons.C.Not seeing opportunities for promotion. D.To find a higher-paid job.35.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? ________A.To make a review on a phenomenon. B.To tell us the leader’s concerns.C.To show a new trend in the job market. D.To stress the role of new technologies.第二节根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)EThe average computer user has between 5 and 15 username/password combinations to log in different kinds of account. Some demand you use a specific number of symbols and digits, while others require you to change your password every 60 days. The feeling of confusion resulting from memorizing these login information has grown so common that it actually has a name: password fatigue(疲劳).Having to remember so many different passwords is annoying, but it can also be dangerous. Because it is virtually impossible to remember a unique password for each of these accounts, many people leave handwritten lists of usernames and passwords on or next to their computers. 36 While these practices make it easier to remember login information, they also make it easier for thieves to hack into accounts.Single Sign-On(SSO)confirmation and password management software can help solve this problem. With SSO, users only need to remember one password to log in to the main system. 37 SSO software is typically used by large companies, schools, or libraries.38 If a user loses or forgets the password required to log in to SSO software, the user will then lose access to all of the applications linked to the SSO account. Users who rely on password management software face the same problems.Although most websites or network systems allow users to recover or change lost passwords by providing email addresses or answering a prompt(提示), this process can waste time and cause further frustration. What is more, recovering a forgotten password is only a temporary solution. 39 Some computer scientists have suggested computers rely on biometrics(生物测定学). 40 The use of biometrics raises questions concerning privacy and can also be expensive to practice.Software engineers and computer security experts are still searching for the cure to password fatigue. Until they find the perfect solution, however, everyone will simply have to rely on the password system currently inplace.A.It does not address the larger problem of password fatigue.B.These software programs have been built into many major web browsersC.The problem with password management software makes users feel powerless.D.The SSO software then automatically logs the user in to other accounts within the system.E.However, SSO confirmation and password management software also have drawbacks.F.This is a method of recognizing human users based on unique traits, such as fingerprints, voice, or DNA. G.Others solve this problem by using the same password for every account or using extremely simple passwords. 第三部分:语言运用完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项.As I turned off one of the main roads the other day, I noticed something unusual in the parking lot the grocery store.There’s a wide grassy land in front of their parking lot, where 41 often put up signs announcing their yard sales or events, but the 42 in front of me was worthy of a double-take. A man in a suit was 43 a sign into the ground and a homeless man was 44 the sign while he hammered.I was 45 by how the two men looked so 46 one with a soldier suit, snowy white shirt, but the other with 47 clothing and uncombed hair waving 48 in the wind. And then the 49 humanity of the moment hit me. So many times we 50 homeless people and all we see is just homeless people. But on this day, I saw the kindness of a man who walked over to help someone.

It is not merely used by westerners like us. It has proved to be a useful tool for Chinese people 62 (they)to learn standard pronunciation in their early education.The first step is to learn how 63 (pronounce)each letter in pinyin correctly and the meaning of the tone markers. Then you have to do 64 (drill)as many as you can. Turn that into a game. It can be 65 (much)fun than you would expect. Start 66 single syllables and to that a lot and then syllable(音节)pairs. Slowly move on to larger groups. Understand the initial, final and the tones.But most importantly, what you need is good feedback. You’d better have someone that can correct your mistakes immediately.Find a native Chinese, 67 pronunciation is quite perfect to correct you.

They conducted a survey and found out that more than half of the British population regularly took pictures of their meals. So they realized it was a better way to advertise their new dining range.The pop-up diner was open in Shoo, London for three days in May, and is now moving to other major UK cities. They serve two-course meals that customers don’t have to pay for, if they photo and Instagram it.The restaurant is a part of Birds Eye’s “Food for L ife,” campaign, a new marketing project that aims at changing the way people look at frozen food. “Taking photos of food enables people to show off and to share their mealtime moments—from the everyday to the special,” said marketing director Margaret Jobbing.The reaction to The Picture House has been great so far. And the pay-by-picture concept has proven to be an effective way. Alternative payment methods are actually gaining popularity among a lot of businesses. Last year, in a cafe in Germany customers pay by how much time they spend there, not by what they eat.21.Instagram probably is ________.A.a restaurant free of charge B.a campaign of “Food for Life”C.a new marketing project D.a program used to share photos22.“The Picture House” encourages sharing photos of its food to ________.A.raise the price of frozen food B.attract more customersC.create a new social media trend D.reward the regular customers23.Which of the following can serve as the best title for the passage? ________A.No Need to Pay. B.The Pop-up Diner.C.Pay by Picture. D.Food for Life.BEvery day born a decade from now will have its genetic code(基因编码)mapped at birth, the head of the world’s leading genome sequencing(基因图谱)company has predicted.A complete DNA read – out for every newborn will be technically possible and affordable in less than five years, promising a revolution in healthcare, says Jay Flatly, the chief executive of Illumine. Only social and legal problems are likely to delay the age of “genome sequences,” or genetic profiles. By 2019 it will have become routine to map infants’ genes when they are born, Dr. Flatly told The Times.This will open a new approach to medicine, by which conditions such as high blood pressure and heart disease can be predicted and prevented and drugs used more safely and effectively.A baby’s genome can be discovered at birth by a blood test. By examining a person’s genome, it is possible to identify raised risks of developing diseases such as cancers. Those at high risk can then be screened more regularly, or given drugs or dietary advice to lower their chances of becoming ill.Personal genomes could also be used to ensure that patients get the medicine that is most likely to work for them and least likely to have side – effects.The development, however, will raise legal concerns about privacy and access to individuals’ genetic records.“Bad things can be done with the genome. It could predict something about someone – and you could possibly hand the information to their employer or their insurance company.” said Dr. Flatly.“People have to recognize that this horse is out of the barn, and that your genome probably can’t be protected, because everywhere you go you leave your genome behind. Complete genetic privacy, however, is unlikely to be possible”, he added.As the benefits become clearer, however, he believes that most people will want their genomes read and interpreted. The risk is nothing compared with the gain.24.In the first two paragraphs, the author mainly wants to tell us about ________.A.the significant progress in medicineB.the promise of a leading companyC.the information of babies’ genes.D.the research of medical scientists25.Which of the following is a problem caused by this approach? ________A.The delaying in discovering DNA.B.The risk of developing diseases at birth.C.The side effects of medicine on patients.D.The letting out of personal genetic information.26.What does the underlined sentence “this horse is out of the barn” mean? ________A.Genetic mapping technique has been widely used.B.people can’t stop genetic mapping technique advancing.C.People are eager to improve genetic mapping technique.D.Genetic mapping technique is too horrible to control.27.What’s Dr. Flatly ’s attitude towards the technology? ________A.Tolerant. B.Conservative. C.Positive. D.Doubtful.CAlthough Paris is often considered the city of romance, close to a million adults who call it home are single. Many single people say that France’s capital is one of the most difficult places to meet people. The complaints(抱怨)of this lonely group have inspired a new phenomenon known as “supermarket dating.” At Galleries Lafayette Gourmet, singles can shop for more than just the items on their grocery list. They can look for someone who has blue eyes, brown hair, and is 1.8meters tall, or whatever may be on their romantic shopping list.At this Paris location, single people of all ages can schedule their shopping for Thursday nights between 6:30 and 9:00 p. m. When they walk through the door, they pick up a purple basket to advise that they are looking for love. They try to arrive early because the baskets disappear quickly, and then they have to wait in line for their turn to wander the store aisles(过道).With purple baskets in hand, shoppers can consider their romantic options while they pick out their groceries. When they are ready to pay, they can go to the checkout line for singles who want to chat.Most of the people who look for love in the supermarket are skeptical of Internet dating. They know that it is easy to embellish(美化)one’s appearance or to lie about one’s age over the Internet. The supermarket, on the other hand, is considered a safe and casual environment in which to meet a potential match. In addition, what one finds in another’s grocery basket can say a thing or two about that person’s character or intentions. Buying pet food can be a man’s way of showing a potential match that he has a sensitive side. Women who fill their baskets with low-fat food show their healthy style of living. These days it’s possible to find much more than food at a grocery store. 28.What do many single people in Pairs complain about? ________A.The difficulty in meeting people.B.The idea of supermarket dating.C.The items on their grocery list.D.The inconvenience in shopping.29.Which of the following can be inferred but is not clearly stated in the second paragraph? ________A.The dating supermarket is located in Paris.B.The dating supermarket is open only on Thursday evenings.C.People looking for love must get a basket of a particular colorD.The dating supermarket has very good business.30.How do love shoppers meet one another? ________A.They schedule their meeting in advance.B.They go through a special checkout.C.They pick out their groceries with great care.D.They dial the phone numbers on their shopping items.31.Why do the people prefer the supermarket dating to Internet dating? ________A.The supermarket dating is more convenient.B.The supermarket dating is more casual.C.The supermarket dating can be trusted more.D.The supermarket dating is less expensive.DImagine that you’re looking at your company-issued smartphone and you notice an e-mail from LinkedIn: “These companies are looking for candidates like you!” You aren’t necessarily searching for a job, but you’re always open to opportunities, so out of curiosity, you click on the link. A few minutes later your boss appears at your desk. “We’ve noticed that you’re spending more time on LinkedIn lately, so I wanted to talk with you about your career and whether you’re happy here,” she says. Uh-oh.It’s an awkward scene. Attrition(损耗)has always been expensive for companies, but in many industries the cost of losing good workers is rising, owing to tight labor markets. Thus companies are intensifying(增强)their efforts to predict which workers are at high risk of leaving so that managers can try to stop them. Tactics(策略)range from electronic monitor to sophisticated(复杂的)analyses of employees’ social media lives.Some of this work may be a reason to let employees to quit. In general, people leave their jobs because they don’t like their boss, don’t see opportunities for promotion or growth, or are offered a higher pay; these reasons have held steady for years.New research conducted by CEB, a Washington-based technology company, looks not just at why workers quit but also at when. “We’ve learned that what really affects people is their sense of how they’re doing compared with other people in their peer group, or with where they thought they would be at a certain point in life, says Brian Krupp, who heads CEB’s HR practice. “We’ve learned to focus on moments that allow people to make these comparisons.”Technology also provides clues about which star employees might be eyeing the exit. Companies can tell whether employees using work computers or phones are spending time on (or even just opening e-mails from)career websites, and research shows that more firms are paying attention to these things. Large companies have also begun tracking badge swipes(浏览痕迹)—employees’ use of an ID to enter and exit the building or the parking garage—to identify patterns that suggest a worker may be interviewing for a job.32.From the first paragraph, we can infer LinkedIn is________A.an e-mail B.a job from the InternetC.a professional social network D.a world-famous company33.What’s the main idea of the second paragraph? ________A.The cost of losing good workers is rising.B.Companies are stricter with workers than before.C.Measures have been taken to find the potential workers who want to quit.D.Finding new jobs has been a trend for most workers.34.According to the research by CEB, which of the following might be the most probable reason for workers to quit their jobs? ________A.They don’t like their bosses. B.Workers are always doing comparisons.C.Not seeing opportunities for promotion. D.To find a higher-paid job.35.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? ________A.To make a review on a phenomenon. B.To tell us the leader’s concerns.C.To show a new trend in the job market. D.To stress the role of new technologies.第二节根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)EThe average computer user has between 5 and 15 username/password combinations to log in different kinds of account. Some demand you use a specific number of symbols and digits, while others require you to change your password every 60 days. The feeling of confusion resulting from memorizing these login information has grown so common that it actually has a name: password fatigue(疲劳).Having to remember so many different passwords is annoying, but it can also be dangerous. Because it is virtually impossible to remember a unique password for each of these accounts, many people leave handwritten lists of usernames and passwords on or next to their computers. 36 While these practices make it easier to remember login information, they also make it easier for thieves to hack into accounts.Single Sign-On(SSO)confirmation and password management software can help solve this problem. With SSO, users only need to remember one password to log in to the main system. 37 SSO software is typically used by large companies, schools, or libraries.38 If a user loses or forgets the password required to log in to SSO software, the user will then lose access to all of the applications linked to the SSO account. Users who rely on password management software face the same problems.Although most websites or network systems allow users to recover or change lost passwords by providing email addresses or answering a prompt(提示), this process can waste time and cause further frustration. What is more, recovering a forgotten password is only a temporary solution. 39 Some computer scientists have suggested computers rely on biometrics(生物测定学). 40 The use of biometrics raises questions concerning privacy and can also be expensive to practice.Software engineers and computer security experts are still searching for the cure to password fatigue. Until they find the perfect solution, however, everyone will simply have to rely on the password system currently in place. A.It does not address the larger problem of password fatigue.B.These software programs have been built into many major web browsersC.The problem with password management software makes users feel powerless.D.The SSO software then automatically logs the user in to other accounts within the system.E.However, SSO confirmation and password management software also have drawbacks.F.This is a method of recognizing human users based on unique traits, such as fingerprints, voice, or DNA. G.Others solve this problem by using the same password for every account or using extremely simple passwords. 第三部分:语言运用完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项.As I turned off one of the main roads the other day, I noticed something unusual in the parking lot the grocery store.There’s a wide grassy land in front of their parking lot, where 41 often put up signs announcing their yard sales or events, but the 42 in front of me was worthy of a double-take.

河北省衡水市2016届全国高考统一考试模拟试题(三)英语试题(含答案)
2016好题精选模拟卷三第I卷第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15题;每题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
AAs a young woman who was always interested in style, I got lucky in interning(实习) with a fashion company in Tokyo, last summer.I worked as an assistant in the Business Planning Department, helping with marketing for the 2007 Spring/Summer collections. Fashion is a beautiful industry. But against my expectation, it also has lots of ordinary work. Every day, I would do sample testing, prepare the brochure for future launches, and meet with customers and visitors.Japanese companies had a traditional work style. We had a meeting every morning at 9 o'clock. Every Monday, all employees, including those in other parts of Japan, would take part in a conference call. Every afternoon, after finishing work, each of us would say goodbye to every manager in the company, which took more than five minutes.All of this kept me fresh. And the strict work atmosphere caused me to work harder. At the end of last August, the company's 2007 Spring/Summer collection started with a big show and was very successful. Lots of customers showed an interest in our products, including a businessman from Hong Kong.He went to our company for more details on the products, but he couldn't speak Japanese and none of the staff spoke good English.Just when the situation seemed helpless, I offered to give it a try. I was a Japanese major, but I had also practiced my English often. My translation job was praised by both the customer and my boss. And the guest made a big purchase.The two-month internship taught me a lot about business. And the pay - 150,000 yen, or over 10,000 yuan a month- was enough to cover my daily living costs in Tokyo.Moreover, the experience made me stand out. Every interviewer I've spoken with showed an interest and discussed my internship with me.And thanks to this experience, I've found a good job in one of the Big Four accounting firms and will start working this summer.21. Before she interned(实习) in the fashion company in Tokyo, the writer ______A. did not like the fashion.B. imagined it being beautiful and simply.C. didn’t expect a fashion industry had lots of work as ordinary as normal.D. was nervous about it.22. What would each of the employees in Japanese Companies do every afternoon?A. They do sample testing.B. They meet with customers and visitors.C. They prepare the brochure for future launches.D. They say good bye to every manager.23. Why does the writer work harder?A. Because she is often kept freshB. Because Japanese traditional strict work style causes her to.C. Because a meeting every morning is held.D. Because they hold a conference call every Monday.24. What can you learn from the passage?A. Internship usually plays an important role in finding a good job.B. Chinese are good at English.C. Japanese are good at spoken English.D. And the pay the writer got was enough for her future life.BA Grassroots RemedyMost of us spend our lives seeking the natural world. To this end, we walk the dog, play golf, go fishing, sit in the garden, drink outside rather than inside the pub, have a picnic, live in the suburbs, go to the seaside, buy a weekend place in the country. The most popular leisure activity in Britain is going for a walk. And when joggers (慢跑者) jog, they don’t run the streets. Every one of them instinctively heads to the park or the river. It is my profound belief that not only do we all need nature, but we all seek nature, whether we know we are doing so or not.But despite this, our children are growing up nature-deprived (丧失). I spent my boyhood climbing trees on Streatham Common, South London. These days, children are robbed of these ancient freedoms, due to problems like crime, traffic, the loss of the open spaces and odd new perceptions about what is best for children, that is to say, things that can be bought, rather than things that can be found.The truth is to be found elsewhere. A study in the US: families had moved to better housing and the children were assessed for ADHD—attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (多动症). Those whose accommodation had more natural views showed an improvement of 19%; those who had the same improvement in material surroundings but no nice view improved just 4%.A study in Sweden indicated that kindergarten children who could play in a natural environment had less illness and greater physical ability than children used only to a normal playground. A US study suggested that when a school gave children access to a natural environment, academic levels were raised across the entire school.Another study found that children play differently in a natural environment. In playgrounds, children create a hierarchy (等级) based on physical abilities, with the tough ones taking the lead. But when a grassy area was planted with bushes, the children got much more into fantasy play, and the social hierarchy was now based on imagination and creativity.Most bullying (恃强凌弱) is found in schools where there is a tarmac (柏油碎石) playground; the least bullying is in a natural area that the children are encouraged to explore. This reminds me unpleasantly of Sunnyhill School in Streatham, with its harsh tarmac, where I used to hang about in corners fantasising about wildlife.But children are frequently discouraged from involvement with natural spaces, for health and safety reasons, for fear that they might get dirty or that they might cause damage. So, instead, the damage is doneto the children themselves: not to their bodies but to their souls.One of the great problems of modern childhood is ADHD, now increasingly and expensively treated with drugs. Yet one study after another indicates that contact with nature gives huge benefits to ADHD children. However, we spend money on drugs rather than on green places.The life of old people is measurably better when they have access to nature. The increasing emphasis for the growing population of old people is in quality rather than quantity of years. And study after study finds that a garden is the single most important thing in finding that quality.In wider and more difficult areas of life, there is evidence to indicate that natural surroundings improve all kinds of things. Even problems with crime and aggressive behaviour are reduced when there is contact with the natural world.Dr William Bird, researcher from the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds, states in his study, “A natural environment can reduce violent behaviour because its restorative process helps reduce anger and impulsive behaviour.” Wild places need encouraging for this reason, no matte r how small their contribution.We tend to look on nature conservation as some kind of favour that human beings are granting to the natural world. The error here is far too deep: not only do humans need nature for themselves, but the very idea that humanity and the natural world are separable things is profoundly damaging.Human beings are a species of mammals (哺乳动物). For seven million years they lived on the planet as part of nature. Our ancestral selves miss the natural world and long for contact with non-human life. Anyone who has patted a dog, stroked a cat, sat under a tree with a pint of beer, given or received a bunch of flowers or chosen to walk through the park on a nice day, understands that.We need the wild world. It is essential to our well-being, our health, our happiness. Without the wild world we are not more but less civilised. Without other living things around us we are less than human.Five ways to find harmony with the natural worldWalk: Break the rhythm of permanently being under a roof. Get off a stop earlier, make a circuit of the park at lunchtime, walk the child to and from school, get a dog, feel yourself moving in moving air, look, listen, absorb.Sit: Take a moment, every now and then, to be still in an open space. In the garden, anywhere that’s not in the office, anywhere out of the house, away from the routine. Sit under a tree, look at water, feel refreshed, ever so slightly renewed.Drink: The best way to enjoy the natural world is by yourself; the second best way is in company. Take a drink outside with a good person, a good gathering: talk with the sun and the wind with birdsong for background.Learn: Expand your boundaries. Learn five species of bird, five butterflies, five trees, five bird songs. That way, you see and hear more: and your mind responds gratefully to the greater amount of wildness in your life.Travel: The places you always wanted to visit: by the seaside, in the country, in the hills. Take a weekend break, a day-trip, get out there and do it: for the scenery, for the way through the woods, for the birds, for the bees. Go somewhere special and bring specialness home. It lasts forever, after all.25. What does the author say people prefer for their children nowadays?A. Personal freedom.B. Things that are natural.C. Urban surroundings.D.

She'd wake up early, turn on her laptop and chat on Internet dating sites and instant-messaging programs –leaving her bed for only brief intervals. Her household bills piled up, along with the dishes and dirty laundry, but it took near-constant complaints from her four daughters before she realized she had a problem."I was starting to feel like my whole world was falling apart – kind of slipping into a depression," said Carla. "I knew that if I didn't get off the dating sites, I'd just keep going," detaching (使脱离) herself further from the outside world.Toebe's conclusion: She felt like she was "addicted" to the Internet. She's not alone.Concern about excessive Internet use isn't new. As far back as 1995, articles in medical journals and the establishment of a Pennsylvania treatment center for overusers generated interest in the subject. There's still no consensus on how much time online constitutes too much or whether addiction is possible.But as reliance on the Web grows, there are signs that the question is getting more serious attention: Last month, a study published in CNS Spectrums claimed to be the first large-scale look at excessive Internet use. The American Psychiatric Association may consider listing Internet addiction in the next edition of its diagnostic manual. And scores of online discussion boards have popped up on which people discuss negative experiences tied to too much time on the Web."There's no question that there're people who're seriously in trouble because they're overdoing their Internet involvement," said psychiatrist (精神科医生) Ivan Goldberg. Goldberg calls the problem a disorder rather than a true addiction.Jonathan Bishop, a researcher in Wales specializing in online communities, is more skeptical. "The Internet is an environment," he said. "You can't be addicted to the environment." Bishop describes the problem as simply a matter of priorities, which can be solved by encouraging people to prioritize other life goals and plans in place of time spent online.The new CNS Spectrums study was based on results of a nationwide telephone survey of more than 2,500 adults. Like the 2005 survey, this one was conducted by Stanford University researchers.About 6% of respondents reported that "their relationships suffered because of excessive Internet use." About 9% attempted to conceal "nonessential Internet use," and nearly 4% reported feeling "preoccupied by the Internet when offline."About 8% said they used the Internet as a way to escape problems, and almost 14% reported they "found it hard to stay away from the Internet for several days at a time.""The Internet problem is still in its infancy," said Elias Aboujaoude, a Stanford professor. No single online activity is to blame for excessive use, he said. "They're online in chat rooms, checking e-mail, or writing blogs. [The problem is] not limited to porn (色情) or gambling" websites.Excessive Internet use should be defined not by the number of hours spent online but "in terms of losses," said Maressa Orzack, a Harvard University professor. "If it's a loss [where] you're not getting to work, and family relationships are breaking down as a result, then it's too much."Since the early 1990s, several clinics have been established in the U. S. to treat heavy Internet users. They include the Center for Internet Addiction Recovery and the Center for Internet Behavior.The website for Orzack's center lists the following among the psychological symptoms of computer addiction:● Having a sense of well-being (幸福) or excitement while at the computer.● Longing for more and more time at the computer.● Neglect of family and friends.● Feeling empty, depressed or irritable when not at the computer.● Lying to employers and family about activities.● Inability t o stop the activity.● Problems with school or job.Physical symptoms listed include dry eyes, backaches, skipping meals, poor personal hygiene (卫生) and sleep disturbances.People who struggle with excessive Internet use maybe depressed or have other mood disorders, Orzack said. When she discusses Internet habits with her patients, they often report that being online offers a "sense of belonging, and escape, excitement [and] fun," she said. "Some people say relief…because they find themselves so relaxed."Some parts of the Internet seem to draw people in more than others. Internet gamers spend countless hours competing in games against people from all over the world. One such game, called World of Warcraft, is cited on many sites by posters complaining of a "gaming addiction."Andrew Heidrich, an education network administrator from Sacramento, plays World of Warcraft for about two to four hours every other night, but that's nothing compared with the 40 to 60 hours a week he spent playing online games when he was in college. He cut back only after a full-scale family intervention (干预), in which relatives told him he'd gained weight."There's this whole culture of competition that sucks people in" with online gaming, said Heidrich, now a father of two. "People do it at the expense of everything that was a constant in their lives." Heidrich now visits websites that discuss gaming addiction regularly "to remind myself to keep my love for online games in check."Toebe also regularly visits a site where posters discuss Internet overuse. In August, when she firstrealized she had a problem, she posted a message on a Yahoo Internet addiction group with the subject line: "I have an Internet Addiction.""I'm self-employed and need the Internet for my work, but I'm failing to accomplish my work,to take care of my home, to give attention to my children," she wrote in a message sent to the group."I have no money or insurance to get professional help; I can't even pay my mortgage (抵押贷款) and face losing everything."Since then, Toebe said, she has kept her promise to herself to cut back on her Internet use. "I have a boyfriend now, and I'm not interested in online dating," she said by phone last week. "It's a lot better now."29. What eventually made Carla Toebe realize she was spending too much time on the Internet?A. Her daughter's repeated complaints.B. Fatigue resulting from lack of sleep.C. The poorly managed state of her house.D. The high financial costs adding up.30. What does the author say about excessive Internet use?A. People should be warned of its harmful consequences.B. It has become virtually inevitable.C. It has been somewhat exaggerated.D. People haven't yet reached agreement on its definition.31. Jonathan Bishop believes that the Internet overuse problem can be solved if people ______.A. try to improve the Internet environmentB. become aware of its serious consequencesC. can realize what is important in lifeD. can reach a consensus on its definitionDColleges taking another look at value of merit-based aid Good grades and high tests scores still matter—a lot—to many colleges as they award financial aid.But with low-income students projected to make up an ever-larger share of the college-bound population in coming years, some schools are re-examining whe ther that aid, typically known as “merit aid”, is the most effective use of precious institutional dollars.George Washington University in Washington, D.C., for example, said last week that it would cut the value of its average merit scholarships by about one-third and reduce the number of recipients(接受者), pouring the savings, about $2.5 million, into need-based aid. Allegheny College in Meadville, Pa., made a similar decision three years ago.Now, Hamilton College in Clinton, N.Y., says it will phase out merit scholarships altogether. No current merit-aid recipients will lose their scholarships, but need-based aid alone will be awarded beginning with students entering in fall 2008.Not all colleges offer merit aid; generally, the more selective a school, the less likely it is to do so. Harvard and Princeton, for example, offer generous need-based packages, but many families who don’t meet need eligibility(资格)have been willing to pay whatever they must for a big-name school.For small regional colleges that struggle just to fill seats, merit aid can be an important revenue-builder because many recipients still pay enough tuition dollars over and above the scholarship amount to keep theinstitution running.But for rankings-conscious schools in between, merit aid has served primarily as a tool to recruit top students and to improve their academic profits. “They’re trying to buy students,” says Skidmore College economist Sandy Baum.Studies show merit aid also tends to benefit disproportionately students who could afford to enroll without it.“As we look to the future, we see a more pressing need to invest in need-based aid,” says Monica Inzer, dean of admission and financial aid at Hamilton, which has offered merit scholarships for 10 years. During that time, it rose in US News & World Report’s ranking of the best liberal arts colleges, from 25 to 17.Merit aid, which benefited about 75 students a year, or about 4% of its student body, at a cost of about $ 1 million a year, “served us well,” Inzer says, but “to be discounting the price for families that don’t need financial aid doesn’t feel right any more.”Need-based aid remains by far the largest share of all student aid, which includes state, federal and institutional grants. But merit aid, offered primarily by schools and states, is growing faster, both overall and at the institutional level.Between 1995-96 and 2003-04, institutional merit aid alone increased 212%, compared with 47% for need-based grants. At least 15 states also offer merit aid, typically in a bid to enroll top students in the state’s public institutions.But in recent years, a growing chorus(异口同声)of critics has begun pressuring schools to drop the practice. Recent decisions by Hamilton and others may be “a sign that peopl e are starting to realize that there’s this destructive competition going on,” says Baum, co-author of a recent College Report that raises concerns about the role of institutional aid not based on need.David Laird, president of the Minnesota Private College Council, says many of his schools would like to reduce their merit aid but fear that in doing so, they would lose top students to their competitors.“No one can take one-sided action,” says Laird, who is exploring whether to seek an exemption(豁免)from federal anti-trust laws so member colleges can discuss how they could jointly reduce merit aid, “This is a merry-go-round that’s going very fast, and none of the institutions believe they can sustain the risks of trying to break away by themselves.”A complicating factor is that merit aid has become so popular with middle-income families, who don’t qualify for need-based aid, that many have come to depend on it. And, as tuitions continue to increase, the line between merit and need blurs.That’s one reason Allegheny College doesn’t plan to drop merit aid entirely.“We still believe in rewarding superior achievements and know that these top students truly value the scholarship,” says Scott Friedhoff, Allegheny’s vice president for enrollment.Emory University in Atlanta, which boasts a $4.7 billion endowment(捐赠), meanwhile, is taking another approach. This year, it announced it would eliminate loans for needy students and cap them for middle-income families. At the same time, it would expand its 28-year-old merit program.“Yeah, we’re playing the merit game,” acknowledges Tom Lancaster, associate dean for undergraduate education. But it has its strong point, too, he says. “The fact of the matter is, it’s not just about the lowest-income people. It’s the average American middle-class family who’s being priced out of the market.”*A few words about merit-based aid:Merit-based aid is aid offered to students who achieve excellence in a given area, and is generallyknown as academic, athletic and artistic merit scholarships.Academic merit scholarships are based on students’ grades, GPA and overall academic performance during high school. They are typically meant for students going straight to college right after high school. However, there are scholarships for current college students with exceptional grades as well. These merit scholarships usually help students pay tuition bills, and they can be renewed each year as long as the recipients continue to qualify. In some cases, students may need to be recommended by their school or a teacher as part of the qualification process.Athletic merit scholarships are meant for students that excel(突出)in sports of any kind, from football to track and field events. Recommendation for these scholarships is required, since exceptional athletic performance has to be recognized by a coach or a referee(裁判). Applicants need to send in a tape containing their best performance.Artistic merit scholarships require that applicants excel in a given artistic area. This generally includes any creative field such as art, design, fashion, music, dance or writing. Applying for artistic merit scholarships usually requires that students submit a portfolio(选辑)of some sort, whether that includes a collection of artwork, a recording of a musical performance or a video of them dancing.32. With more and more low-income students pursuing higher education, a number of colleges are ________.A. offering students more merit-based aidB. revising their financial aid policiesC. increasing the amount of financial aidD. changing their admission processes33. The chief purpose of rankings-conscious colleges in offering merit aid is to ______.A. improve teaching qualityB. boost their enrollmentsC. attract good studentsD. increase their revenues34. In recent years, merit-based aid has increased much faster than need-based aid due to ______.A. more government funding to collegesB. fierce competition among institutionsC. the increasing number of top studentsD. schools’ improved f inancial situations35. What is the attitude of many private colleges toward merit aid, according to David Laird?A. They would like to see it reduced.B. They regard it as a necessary evil.C. They think it does more harm than good.D. They consider it unfair to middle-class families.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
