But she told me not to risk a good friendship with a boy with the title of boyfriend. It's indeed a wise choice to stay friends with those of the opposite sex. In my opinion, even though some high school relationships might continue after graduation,the probability of them lasting much longer is so slim that there really is not a point to it.Firstly you have to think about such a question-whether it is possible to hurt both of you,or even hurt both of your future husbands or wives. My second point is that you still can date if you hope marriage could possibly follow. Except this,there really is not any other reason for dating. Some students desire relationships for a chance to be romantic. While these are nice to have,there are many more important things at this point in our lives.The titles of boyfriend and girlfriend put too much stress on a relationship between high school students. Just staying as common friends may be the best choice for us. I strongly recommend we should deal with it in an appropriate way and follow our teachers' advice if necessary.41.The author writes this passage probably for ________ to read.A.high school students B.school teachersC.parents and teachers D.married couples42.Between sexes,the relationship of being good friends might be ________ than that of being boy/girlfriends.A.weaker B.safer43.How does the writer like the idea of dating among the students? A.Dating is a nice chance for students to be romantic.B.Studying is far more important than dating in school.C.In high school dating can surely lead to future marriage.D.Dating in high school is sure to hurt your future family.44.The underlined word “it” in the last paragraph might refer to________. A.the title of boyfriend or girlfriend at schoolB.advice given by both teachers and parentsC.the pressure from school lessons and sportsD.the relationship between students of opposite sexes课时作业(三十一)Ⅰ.1-5ABBBAⅡ.6.A考查非谓语动词。

课时提升作业三十选修6Unit 5The power of nature(限时35分钟)Ⅰ. 阅读理解AWhen I was a boy, we used to live across the road from a big hill with huge oak trees growing out of it. When winter arrived, thick, heavy snow would fall, and my two brothers would grab their sleds heading over to the hill for a day of fun. I remember watching them with envy because I was still too small to go sledding. Finally, one winter I was considered big enough and joined my brothers as they carried their sleds up the long hill and prepared to ride down it.The first few trips I rode with one of my brothers and had the time of my life. It was so exhilarating when the wind whipped across my face as I flew down the hillside on the wooden sled. Near the end of the day I was overjoyed too when my oldest brother decided to let me try riding the sled all by myself. I climbed on it full of excitement and lay on my stomach. Then with one big push my brother sent me down the snowy hillside. I was doing pretty well until I hit an old stump hidden by the snow and wentoff course, straight towards one of those big oak trees. My heart pounded in my chest and I could hear myself screaming. At the last possible second I rolled off and the sled crashed into the tree. I could hear my brothers running down the hill yelling, “You have to steer(操控)! You have to steer! ”Sadly, that wasn’t the last time I failed to steer when some obstacle knocked me off course in my life. Many times problems, troubles, and my own failures have sent me crashing into the trees of anger, frustration, and despair. I am still learning that life isn’t always safe sledding. I am still learning that it is up to me to steer myself back to love, back to kindness, back to goodness, and back to God.Life is a trip, but no one ever said it was a smooth ride. Steer well then. Steer straight. Steer your soul towards the light and the love we are all meant for.【文章大意】本文主要讲作者小时候滑雪, 玩得开心的时候不小心撞到大树。

2018届高三英语(人教版)总复习课时作业31 含答案
课时作业31Ⅰ.阅读理解(2016·天津高考)Failure is probably the most exhausting experience a person ever has. There is nothing more tiring than not succeeding.We experience this tiredness in two ways: as start-up fatigue (疲惫) and performance fatigue. In the former case, we keep putting off a task because it is either too boring or too difficult. And the longer we delay it, the more tired we feel.Such start-up fatigue is very real, even if not actually physical, not something in our muscles and bones. The solution is obvious though perhaps not easy to apply: always handle the most difficult job first.Years ago, I was asked to write 102 essays on the great ideas of some famous authors. Applying my own rule, I determined to write them in alphabetical order (按字母顺序), never letting myself leave out a tough idea. And I always started the day's work with the difficult task of essay-writing. Experience proved that the rule works.Performance fatigue is more difficult to handle. Though willing to get started, we cannot seem to do the job right. Its difficulties appear so great that, however hard we work, we fail again and again. In such a situation, I work as hard as I can—then let the unconscious take over.When planning Encyclopaedia Britannica (《大英百科全书》) , I had to create a table of contents based on the topics of its articles. Nothing like this had ever been done before, and day after day I kept coming up with solutions, but none of them worked. My fatigue became almost unbearable.One day, mentally exhausted, I wrote down all the reasons why thisproblem could not be solved. I tried to convince myself that the trouble was with the problem itself, not with me. Relieved, I sat back in an easy chair and fell asleep.An hour later, I woke up suddenly with the solution clearly in mind. In the weeks that followed, the solution which had come up in my unconscious mind proved correct at every step. Though I worked as hard as before, I felt no fatigue. Success was now as exciting as failure had been depressing.Human beings, I believe, must try to succeed. Success, then, means never feeling tired.1.People with start-up fatigue are most likely to ________.A.delay tasks B.work hardC.seek help D.accept failure2.What does the author recommend doing to prevent start-up fatigue?A.Writing essays in strict order.B.Building up physical strength.C.Leaving out the toughest ideas.D.Dealing with the hardest task first.3.On what occasion does a person probably suffer from performance fatigue?A.Before starting a difficult task.B.When all the solutions fail.C.If the job is rather boring.D.After finding a way out.4.According to the author, the unconscious mind may help us ________.A.ignore mental problemsB.get some nice sleepC.gain complete reliefD.find the right solution5.What could be the best title for the passage?A.Success Is Built upon FailureB.How to Handle Performance FatigueC.Getting over Fatigue: A Way to SuccessD.Fatigue: An Early Sign of Health Problems答案与解析本文是一篇说明文。

Ⅱ.阅读理解I was hurrying to our basketball game one morning when Hillary Barnes,the most popular girl,in school,stopped me.“Are you the twin who won the art competition?”she asked.“No,that's Christine.I'm Katie.”I said.We were not identical twins;we looked quite different.She could defeat Snow White in a beauty contest!Compared to Christine,I felt like one of Cinderella's stepsisters.One Saturday Christine gave me a painting lesson because I was always attempting to be artistic too.But I knocked over the vase of flowers,spilling water onto Christine's painting.Instead of becoming angry,though,she turned the whole mess into a dreamy masterpiece(杰作).You could look at it five different ways and see five different things.With this brilliant creation,she won First Prize in the art competition.I really envied her,but I knew it wasn't her fault and I was the one with wild,unmanageable hair and no talent.Joining Christine's basketball team was my latest effort to be like her.On the way to the gym,I'd made up my mind to give my best performance in that day'sgame.I made preparations with great enthusiasm.“Christine,here!”I tossed her a ball.But it was too high,she leapt for it,it slipped through her fingers and crashed into the tape recorder that was used to play the national anthem before each game.I muttered apologies as I picked up the broken pieces of the recorder.Coach looked at the mess and asked,“How are we going to play the song now?”Christine suggested,“Let Katie sing it!She's always singing at home.”Coach asked.“Would you?”I found myself nodding.Coach announced the national anthem and everyone stood.Standing before a microphone,I looked up to the flag.The notes seemed to flow from deep inside me,and my voice was steady and clear.When I finished,the gym was silent Then it was filled with applause.As the game started.teammates patted my back and gave me the“thumbs up”ura Jamison said.“You should try out for the school musical!”I Nodded and said that I might.The next morning Hillary Barnes stopped me in the hallway and asked,“Are you the twin who sings?”“Yes,that's me,”I answered,grining(露齿笑)as I walked to class.1.The authur uses“Snow White”and“Cinderella's stepsisters”to showA.how dissimilar the twins were in appearaneeB.why Christine could win the art competitionC.who was the most popular girl at schoolD.what the twins characters were like答案与解析:A原文第三段说得明白:“我们并非长相相同的双胞胎,差别甚大。
