(2014·海口高三一模)We all have our ways of marking time. As a photographer, my life is measured from one story to the next. My oldest son was born in the middle of a long story about The Endangered Species Act. My daughter came along with a pack of gray wolves.
Twenty stories later, though, it was the story in Alaska that I’ll remember best. It was the
story about the loss of wilderness —and the story during which my wife
Kathy got cancer. That was the one that made time stand still. I stopped
taking pictures on the day when she found that tumor (肿瘤). Cruelly, it was
Thanksgiving. By Christmas, she had become very weak. Some days she
was so sick that she couldn’t watch TV.
Early examination saves time. But ours was not early. By the time you can feel it yourself, it’s often bigger than the doctor wants it to be.
Cancer is a thief. It steals time. Our days were already short with worry. Then came this terrible disease, unfair as storm at harvest time. But cancer also has the power to change us, for good. We learned to simplify everything, enjoying what we have instead of feeling sorry for what we don’t. Cancer even made me a better father. My work had made me a stranger to my three kids. But now I pay attention to what really matters.This is not a race. This is a new way of life and new way of seeing, all from the cancer.
In the end, each of us has so little time. We have less of it than we can possibly imagine. And even though it turned out that Kathy’s cancer had not spread, and her prognosis (诊断) was good, we tried to make it all count now, enjoying every part of every day.
I’ve picked up my camera again. I watch the sky, searching for beautiful light. When winter storms come, Kathy and I gather our children and take the time to catch snowflakes (雪花) on our tongues. After all, this is good. This is what we’re living for.

(2014·东北三校高三联考)Thanksgiving Day, a holiday designed to give thanks and blessings for a good harvest, is drawing near. But are you still having trouble with what gifts you should give? So let’s take a look at some of the different gifts being sent to people from different countries, and maybe you will be able to find some inspiration.
Americans
In 1941, the United States Congress had passed a law, ruling the fourth Thursday of November to be Thanksgiving Day. The make-up parade (游行) is hard to miss, therefore cosmetics (化妆品)，such as cosmetic mirrors, skincare products and sunglasses, may be good choices for gifts.
Egyptians
In ancient Egypt, Harvest Festival was celebrated in honor of their harvest god Min during the spring season because that was when their harvest season would fall. The festival starts with a parade, followed by banquets, a ball and sports. Because music and movies are very popular here, CDs and DVDs are always great gifts. Moreover, art is also welcomed. One thing that should be noted is that blue and yellow colors need to be avoided since they are forbidden in the country.
Chinese
The Chinese have the traditional festival “Mid-Autumn Festival”，celebrated by families on the 15th of August in Chinese lunar calendar. Mooncakes and fruits are common gifts. But believe it or not, it is becoming a trend for an increasing number of young Chinese to celebrate the Western Thanksgiving. Carnations are a good present for mothers during the festival. Gloves are also a good idea, especially as the weather is cold.
Jews
Sukkot, a Jewish festival celebrated for the autumn harvest, has a history of over 3,000 years.
During the eight-day of Sukkot, Jews build many cabins, using branches, to memorize their ancestors’chancel(圣所)．A feast is held during the second day in these specific cabins. Hanukkah is the original name of the festival. Thus lamps and lanterns are always in proper use. In addition, silk is considered to be the ideal gift for this holiday.
5．Which countries hold some parades during the festivals?
A．Egypt and Jewish countries.
B．America and Egypt.
C．China and Egypt.
D．China and America.
6．What will you buy as Thanksgiving gifts to visit a Jewish friend?
A．Sunglasses.B．CDs.
C．Gloves. D．Silk.
7．What can we learn from the passage?
A．Mooncakes have not been popular as before.
B．Chinese people won’t buy flowers as gifts in the festival.
C．Gloves are not so welcome as fruits.
D．Young Chinese people prefer to celebrate the Western Thanksgiving.
8．The best title of this passage should be________.
A．How to buy Thanksgiving gifts
B．A variety of Thanksgiving gifts
C．The function of Thanksgiving gifts
D．How to send Thanksgiving gifts

(2014·山西省高考考前质量监测)Searching the Internet may help middle-aged and older adults keep their memories sharp, US researchers said.
Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles, studied people doing web searches by recording their brain activity.
What we saw was people who had Internet experience used more
of their brain during the search，” Dr. Gary Small, a UCLA expert on
aging, said. “This suggests that just searching on the Internet may train
the brain — that it may keep it active and healthy，” said Small.
“This is the first time anyone has simulated an Internet search task while scanning the brain，” Small said. His team studied 24 normal volunteers between the ages of 55 and 76. Half were experienced at searching the Internet and the other half had no web experience. Otherwise, the groups were similar in age, gender and education.
Both groups were asked to do Internet searches and book reading tasks while their brain activity was monitored.
“We found that in reading the book task, the visual, cortex —the part of the brain that controls reading and language — was activated，” Small said, “In doing the Internet search task, there was much greater activity, but only in the Internet-savvy (了解) group.”
It appears that people who are familiar with the Internet can engage in a much deeper level of brain activity. Activities that keep the brain engaged can preserve brain health and thinking ability. Small thinks learning to do Internet searches may be one of those activities.
9．What did the researchers do when volunteers were doing web searches?
A．They studied the Internet.
B．They activated their brain.
C．They monitored their brain activity.
D．They recorded their memories.
10．How many tasks did the volunteers do?
A．One. B．Two.
C．Three. D．Four.
11．What can we conclude from the passage?
A．Web searching benefits the brain.
B．Reading books keeps the brain engaged.
C．Watching TV makes the brain active.
D．Doing activities damages the brain.
