Answer the questions according to theinformation given in the passage.Kids and PondsYears ago there was a group of kids who would hang around at some local ponds in the woods near their houses in Warwick, Rhode Island. In summer they caught frogs and fish. When winter arrived they couldn’t wait to go skating. Time passed, and the ponds became the only open space for the kids to enjoy themselves in that neighborhood.One day. a thirteen-year-old boy from this group of kids read in the local newspaper that a developer wanted to fill in the ponds and build over a hundred small houses called condominiums. So the boy went door to door and gathered more than two hundred signatures (签名）to stop the development A group of citizens met and decided to support him.At the meeting of the town planning board (委员会)，the boy was quite nervous at first and spoke very softly. But when he saw the faces of his friends and neighbors in the crowd and thought about what was happening to their favorite ponds，his voice grew louder. He told the town officials that they should speak for the citizens. He also insisted that they should leave enough space for children. A few days later，the developer stopped his plan.Nine years later, when that teen was a senior in college, he was informed that the developer was back with his proposal to build condominiums. Now twenty-two years old, he was studying wetlands ecology. He again appeared before the town planning board. This time as an expert witness, he used environmental protection laws to explain restrictions on development in and around wetlands and the knowledge of wetlands ecology to help improve the development. Finally some condominiums were built, but less than half the number the developer wanted. The ponds where those kids used to hang around were protected by a strip of natural land，and are still there today.81.

天津高考英语百日训练之阅读表达(70)含答案详解

天津高考英语百日训练之阅读表达（70）含答案详解第一节【题文】阅读表达（10分）Critics often speak of “the rich” as if those at the very top of the income ladder aren’t honest or as if becoming rich is difficult and means others must become poorer. However, we must add that achieving the statu s of “the rich” isn’t particularly difficult, contrary to popular wisdom. The rules for acquiring huge wealth are few and simple, one of which is to avoid temptations. That is easier said than done, and we don’t intendedly recommend all people to lead a pu re and joyless life.To have a good chance at being rich, most individuals will need at least a college education, which will double their incomes over what they would have earned with only a high school diploma. A professional degree will result in an average annual income of about twice that of college graduates.The first auxiliary rule for becoming rich is to ________ or, if out of school, go back to it. Of course, to stay in school is not enough and they’ll learn something worth the time and effort. It has never been easier to get an education. College costs have been rising steadily for more than a decade. However, the rate of return on a college education has been rising as well, making the investment a good deal.The second auxiliary rule for becoming rich is to pick your education carefully. Teachers will find getting rich tougher than engineers, given that the former can expect to earn half as much over their careers. Music professors may earn much less than their students who major in business.The third auxiliary rule for becoming rich is to marry someone with an equal or higher education, and then stay married. By itself, marriage seems to provide a stable institutional setting that promotes greater earnings, which affords greater savings.From our perspective, becoming rich is really a matter of choice and opportunities exist in large numbers.71. What impression do the rich often leave on critics? (No more than 5 words)72. Why is a college education essential to become wealthy? (No more than 10 words)73. Fill in the blank in Paragraph 3 with proper words. (No more than 5 words)74. How can one make use of marriage to become rich? (No more than 15 words)75. Which of the three auxiliary rules do you think is the most important and why? (No more than 20 words)【答案】【解析】【标题】四川省成都市树德协进中学2013-2014学年高一5月阶段性考试英语【结束】。

天津高考英语百日训练之阅读表达(83)含答案详解

天津高考英语百日训练之阅读表达（83）含答案详解【题文】One out of many important things for the whole family to do is to have dinner together. Researchers began reporting the benefits of family dinner about a decade ago, focusing mainly on how it affects children. Studies show that those families who eat dinner at least 3 or 4 times a week together, benefit in many ways.Eating together helps families achieve open communication and build stronger and healthier relationships. Children have better grades at school and are better adjusted as teens and adults, and the entire family enjoys healthier nutrition. For many families, eating dinner together proves to be a good and effective way to reduce the risk of youth rates of addiction, and helps to nurture healthier children. It is also a great time to share the events of the day, discuss news and ideas and just be together and enjoy each other’s company.During dinner time parents have better opportunity to show that they are the prior to their children. Sitting at the same table and sharing meals is where and when parents can find out more about their children’s school performance, daily activities and attitudes toward life. When parents have all this information they can better direct their kids toward positive things in life. They also have better chance to reduce the possibility that children will get involved with alcohol, tobacco, and illegal drugs.However, family researchers say that the benefits of family dinner by no means can be considered as automatic. Parents can sit down to dinner with their kids every day and achieve nothing. Family dinner may not benefit if there is too much arguing going on, if there is no meaningful conversation or, what is even worse, if there is just plain silence during gathering. 56. What may be the best title for this passage? (no more than 8 words)_______________________________________________________________________________ _____________57. What benefits can children get from eating together? (no more than 15 words)_______________________________________________________________________________ _____________58. How do you explain the underlined word “nurture” in Paragraph 2? (no more than 2 words)_______________________________________________________________________________ _____________59. What information can parents probably get about their children at family dinner? (no more than 15 words)_______________________________________________________________________________ _____________60. What should be avoided at the dinner table according to the author? And why? (no more than 15 words)_______________________________________________________________________________ _____________【答案】56. The Benefits of Eating Together/ The Benefits of Family Dinner/ Family Dinner Brings Lots of Benefits57. They have better grades at school and are better adjusted when they are older./ Children can communicate with their parents and enjoy their company.58. Raise./Bing up./ Educate.59. They can lean more about their children’s school performance, daily activities and attitudes toward life.60. Silence. Because without communication no one can get any benefit at the dinner table. /Quarreling. Because it brings about a bad atmosphere that benefits no one./ Meaningless conversation. Because it does not bring any benefit to anyone.【解析】这是一篇议论文。

天津高考英语百日训练之阅读表达(79)含答案详解

天津高考英语百日训练之阅读表达（79）含答案详解【题文】Recently, a professor of Philosophy in the United States has written a book called Money and the Meaning of Life. He has discovered that how we deal with money in our day-to-day life has more meaning than we usually think. One of the exercises he asked his students to do is to keep a record of every penny they spend for a week. From the way they spend their money, they can often see what they really value in life.He says our relation with others often becomes clearly defined when money enters the picture. You might have wonderful friendship with somebody and you think that you are very good friends. But you will know him only when you ask him to lend you some money. If he does, it brings something to the relationship that seems stronger than ever before. Or it can suddenly impair the relationship if he doesn’t. This person may say that he has a certain feeling, but if it is not carried out in the money world, there is something less real about it.Since money is so important to us, we consider those who possess a lot of it to be very important. The author interviewed some millionaires in researching his book.Question: What is the most surprising thing you have discovered about being rich, because you are a self-made (白手起家的) man?Answer: The most surprising thing is how people give me so much respect. I am nothing. I don’t know much. All I am is rich. People just have an idea of making more and more money, but what is it for? How much do I need for any given purposes in my life?In his book, the professor uncovered an important need in modern society: to bring back the idea that money is an instrument rather than the end. Money plays an important role in the material world, but expecting money to give happiness may be missing the meaning of life.56.Why are the students asked to keep a record of every penny they spend? (no more than 8 words)57.How can you clearly define your friendship? (no more than 10 words)58.What does the underlined word “impair” most probably mean? (1 word)59.What does the professor want to explain in his book? (no more than 10 words)60.What do you think of the relationship between money and happiness? Give your reasons. (no more than 20 words)【答案】56.To know what they really value in life. / To know what is important in life.57.To ask your friend to lend you some money. / To borrow money from your friend.58.Weaken. / Destroy.59.Money is an instrument rather than the end. / Money is only a means but not everything.60.Wealth / Money will not surely bring the owner happiness and may make the owner miss the meaning of life.【解析】【标题】天津大联考2015届高三第八次联考英语试卷【结束】。

It was his 80th. As he walked the long hallway，some popped out of lime to hug him. They handed him so many cards that they filled several large boxes. Touched by their enthusiastic expression of affection. Mabry thanked them all.

天津高考英语百日训练之阅读表达(78)含答案详解

天津高考英语百日训练之阅读表达（78）含答案详解【题文】Happy Leap Day! Leap Day, you ask? Yes, it’s February 29. You may notice this date didn’t appear on the last year’s calendar, or the year before that, or…That’s because Leap Day happens every four years and 2014 is a leap year.A leap year has 366 days instead of the usual 365 days that an ordinary year has.An extra day is added to the calendar in a leap year, and here’s why: The 365 days of the calendar are meant to match up with the solar year.A solar year is the time it tak es the Earth to complete its orbit around the Sun, about one year. But the Earth’s yearly trip around the Sun takes a bit longer than 365 days. The orbit takes 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes and 46 seconds, to be exact. That time equals roughly one quarter of a day, so the calendar and the solar year don’t match accurately. After a few years, that extra time in the solar year begins to accumulate. After four years, for example, the four extra quarter days will make the calendar fall behind the solar year by about a day.According to the Honor Society of Leap Year Day Babies — a club for people born on Leap Day — there are an estimated 4 million people whose birthdays come but every four years.But who wants to wait four years to celebrate his/her birthday? Most celebrate yearly on February 28 or March 1.There was a time when strict rules prevented women from proposing marriage to their beloved.In most cultures, that’s not the case anymore.In fact, female pioneers who thought this rule was clearly unfair managed to get Leap Year established as an acceptable time for women to to unmarried men.So on February 29, a man could be surprised at an offer he couldn’t refuse.The first documentation of this day of ladies’ choice was in 1288 in Scotland.Officials then d ecided to pass a law that allowed women to propose marriage to men of their choice in that year.They also made it a law that any man who said no to a proposal in a leap day had to pay a fine.The fine could range from a kiss to payment for a silk dress or a pair of gloves.55．What is the main idea of the first two paragraphs? ( no more than 10 words)56．How often does the leap day/leap year happen? ( no more than 4 words)57．When do people who were born on Leap Day usually celebrate their birthday yearly?

Once the money was accepted, the spikes disappear into the bench. Then visitors can sit down comfortably, but only for half an hou r. When the time’s up, the spikes slowly start moving up again. It doesn’t hurt at first, but after a minute, they start coming up even more quickly. They aren’t long enough to cause serious hurt, but they do cause pain, as tests have shown. But why have t hey been installed (安装)?“Our public park is very popular in summer,” a spokesperson for the park explained. “But with all the thousands of people who visit the park, there aren’t enough benches for everyone. We want to make sure that the benches are share d by more visitors, and to stop people taking a bench and staying there all day. Installing spikes seems to be the fairest way of stopping people doing this.”33. How is the new kind of park bench different from other benches?34. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?35.

天津高考英语百日训练之阅读表达（28）含答案详解【题文】How do you keep a library when you’ve got no room for your books? With rising rents and record numbers of young people having to move with their parents, it’s clear that we are a moving generation.As a student in Leeds I moved three times in four years; in London, it was seven times in three years. Regularly having to load our possessions into laundry bags and boxes takes a lot of our finance and energy, but the effect on our book collections is rarely considered.Keeping a collection of beloved books in a damp flat with no shelves, which you’ll probably have to move out of in six months’ time, is a challenge. Deciding which books to keep and which to reject becomes increasingly difficult. Do you hold on to the books you know you’ll reread or do you keep the to-be-read pile intact (完好无损的) ?Donating books to a charity shop or local school may be virtuous, but when you haven’t had time to read them since your last move, it becomes depressing. There’s a copy of Much Ado About Nothing I’ve been moving around with for nearly a decade because it is the only piece of Shakespeare in the marketplace.“Just buy a Kindle!” you might argue —but for many people, books are more than just books. They offer us an emotional connection to the past, to the person who gave them to us. They are a way to brighten up a dark flat, they are a link to home; they are the hardest thing to move and the most enjoyable thing to unpack.So what if you are already facing your second move this year and can’t b ear the thought of pensioning off more of your beloved books? You start reading more. Read all the books in your current bedroom and work out if they’re worth the trip; give away as many books as you can; leave books with trusted friends to be reclaimed at a later point. Start looking at your books creatively.78.Why has the moving generation appeared? (no more than 15 words)79.While moving, why do people often ignore their book collections?

天津高考英语百日训练之阅读表达（26）含答案详解【题文】Most people look forward to retirement as a time when they can finally take up activities that they never had the time or energy to pursue before．But some recent studies on people in their golden years are disturbing: they suggest that retirees are more likely to suffer from depression and possibly higher rates of other diseases such as heart disease and high blood pressure．That’s why a new study of French workers is welcome news.Led by Hugo Westerlund, a professor of psychology at Stockholm University, the study of more than 14,000 workers found lower rates of depression and fatigue (疲劳) in people after they got tired while they were still employed.The scientists followed the employees of the French national gas and electric company for 14 years．They found in the year immediately after retirement, the volunteers reported 40% fewer depressive symptoms than they had in the year before their retirement．The researchers also found an 81% drop in reports of both mental and physical fatigue over the same time period.Clearly, said Westerlund, much of these decrease in physical and mental fatigue can be traced back to relief from the stresses of work．The decline in depressive symptoms suggests that retirement may be having a positive mental effect, too, which may have a lot to do with the generous pensions (养老金) that French workers enjoy．Most retirees in that country still benefit from about 80% of their yearly salaries.“The economic or financial situation in retirement is very important,” Westerlund says．“We don’t know if the decrease in fatigue and depressive symptoms is because of the removal of something bad while in work or the addition of something good while in retirement．But no matter what the reason, if life in retirement is not comfortable, then we won’t see the improvements we did.”However, in European nations like France, governments are considering changes to pension plans, which may affect retirees’ health after they leave their jobs－with less of a financial safety net, workers may no longer seem so mentally and physically happy to be out of work．(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN EIGHT WORDS.)78．According to some recent studies, retired people may have depression and higher rates of other diseases like __________.79．Westerlund’s group found that in the year just after the retirement most retired French workers felt much less tired both _______________.80．What does the word “improvements” in paragraph 5 refer to? ______________________81．Retirement may make people happier with ________________.【答案】78.heart disease and high blood pressure79.mentally and physically80.The decrease in fatigue and depressive symptoms.81.more of a financial safety net【解析】【标题】2016上海高考压轴卷英语【结束】。

Should Students Wear School Uniforms or Not?Theses days, when a school does not have its own uniform, many students wear very fashionable clothes to school. Some are even trying to show others that they have the coolest clothes. I think this is wrong. How we look is not as important as what we learn at school. Why would we need to wear these kinds of clothes to school when the purpose of going to school is learning? If we want to look smart all the time, we will have to wear different clothes every day. We come to school five days a week. This means we have to buy new clothes all the time. Won’t it become too expensive to look smart?As students, we exercise and do sport all the time. We need clothes that are comfortable and do not need special care, but fashionable clothes are usually difficult to take care of. I always play football with my friends after school. I like to wear a cotton shirt and cotton shorts instead of fashionable clothes. I guess my mother wouldn’t be happy if I played football in an expensive shirt.58.
