But it doesn’t happen by accident. It starts with looking inside yourself and understanding who you are with respect to the natural world and how you approach the gardening process.②__________Some people may think that a garden is no more than plants, flowers, patterns and masses of color. Others are concerned about using gardening methods that require less water and fewer fertilizers (肥料). ③__________. However, there are a number of other reasons that might explain why you want to garden. One of them comes from our earliest years.Recall (回忆) your childhood memoriesOur model of what a garden should be often goes back to childhood. Grandma’s rose garden and Dad’s vegetable garden might be good or bad,but that’s not what’s important. ④__________—how being in those gardens made us feel.

Every animal sleeps, but the reason for this has remained foggy. When lab rats are not allowed to sleep, they die within a month.①__________ One idea is that sleep helps us strengthen new memories.②__________We know that, while awake, fresh memories are recorded by reinforcing(加强) connections between brain cells, but the memory processesthat take place while we sleep have been unclear.Support is growing for a theory that sleep evolved so that connections between neurons(神经元) in the brain can be weakened overnight, making room for fresh memories to form the next day. ③__________Now we have the most direct evidence yet that he isright. ④__________The synapses in the mice taken at the end of a period of sleep were 18 per cent smaller than those taken before sleep, showing that the connections between neurons weaken while sleeping.If Tononi’s theory is right, it would explain why, when we miss a night’s, we find it harder the next day to concentrate and learn new information — our brains may have smaller room for new experiences.Their research also suggests how we may build lasting memories over time even though the synapses become thinner. The team discovered that some synapses seem to be protected and stayed the same size. ⑤__________"You keep what matters," Tononi says.A. We should also try to sleep well the night before.B. It’s as if the brain is preserving its most important memories.C. Similarly, when people go for a few days without sleeping, they get sick.D. The processes take place to stop our brains becoming loaded with memories.E. That’s why students do better in tests if they get a chance to sleep after learning.F. "Sleep is the price we pay for learning,"says Giulio Tononi, who developed the idea.G. Tononi’s team measured the size of these connections, or synapses, in the brains of 12 mice.13. Success seems to find Maya Moore everywhere she goes. But life hasn’t been a bed of ro ses for Maya and her biggest supporter, her mother.①__________Maya discovered her love of basketball in 1997 at the age of 8. That was the year when the WNBA (Women's National Basketball Association) began holding games. The young girl watched the WNBA star Cynthia Cooper-Dyke play in the Olympics.②__________Three years later her mother, Kathryn, was offered a better job in North Carolina. Kathryn decided to make the move from Missouri because North Carolina provided greater basketball opportunities. Sadly, in two months the company downsized, and Kathryn lost her job.

In fact，they are probably the most important ones.If someone hurts you, forgive them， 4 ．5 ，for you may never be able to experience it again. Talk to people you have never talked to before，and really listen. You should set your sights high，hold your head up，tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself.

Getting a good night sleep is very important to your physical and emotional (情感的) health. Here are a number of simple actions and choices you can make right now to help you sleep better TONIGHT.1. Avoid caffeine, alcohol, and nicotine(尼古丁). If you want coffee in the afternoon or evening, drink less. An alcoholic drink, especially more than one, will not help you sleep better. A drink may, or may not, help you fall asleep, but alcohol causes you to sleep poorly and be unable to sleep all night. 542. Don't overeat, but don't go to bed hungry. If you aren't tired of milk, try a small glass of warm milk or a piece of mild cheese in the evening. A small piece of chicken or other protein may also work well before bed. 553. 56 It can help you avoid lacking water and is generally good for your health. However, avoid water and other fluids for the last two hours before bedtime to reduce your need to go to the bathroom during the night.4. Make your bedroom as quiet as you can. 57 Consider using earplugs (耳塞) if your bedroom is noisy. Some people find that the white noise from a fan, as well as the air flow, helps them sleep better. Others find soft music or natural sounds like waves or bird songs to be relaxing and induce sleep. If you use music to help you fall asleep, you may find that you get better rest later in the night if you set the music to turn off after an hour.A. Drink enough water early in the day.B. If you have a clock that ticks loudly, replace it.C. If you drink too much water, you will feel bad.D. Don’t have your stomach empty before going to bed.E. Cigarettes are always an unhealthy habit, especially in the evening.F. A re you always worried about what you eat in the evening?G. Have you fallen into a pattern of sleeping poorly?GEDABEasy Ways to Keep Your Brain SharpEveryone is forgetful, but as we age, we start to feel like our brains are slowing down a bit—and that can be a very annoying thing. 36 Read on for some techniques worth trying.1. 37People who regularly made plans and looked forward to upcoming events had a 50 percent reduced chance of Alzheimer's disease(早老性痴呆症), according to a recent study. 38 Something as simple as setting a goal to have a weekly coffee date with a friend will do. There's evidence that people who have a purpose in life or who are working on long or short-term goals appear to do better. In other words, keep your brain looking forward.2. Go for a walk.Mildly raised glucose(葡萄糖) levels can harm the area of the brain that helps you form memories and physical activity can help get blood glucose down to normal levels. In fact, exercise produces chemicals that are good for your brain. 393. Learn something new.Take a Spanish class online, join a drawing club, or learn to play cards. A study found that mental stimulation (刺激) limits the weakening effects of aging on memory and the mind. But the best thing for your brain is when you learn something new and are physically active at the same time. 40 Or go dancing with your friends.A. Focus on the future.B. This can be especially harmful to the aged.C. It should be something like learning gardening.D. So take a few minutes each day to do some reading.E. But don't worry if your schedule isn't filled with life-changing events.F. Luckily, research shows there is a lot you can do to avoid those moments.G. In other words, when you take care of your body, you take care of your brain. FAEGCHow to Turn Your Child into a Lifelong Bookworm Literacy is one of the most important skills we will ever develop over our lifetimes. Most small children love books, looking at the pictures and hearing the story, but as they get older they often move away from books. 36Join the libraryLibraries have changed a lot in recent years. 37 Take your child regularly and encourage them to take out books on whatever subject interests them.Not just novelsMany parents think that reading counts if the child is reading a work of fiction or a novel. 38 Non-fiction books are particularly attractive to boys. Kids especially love the sorts of books which allow them to make a decision between various paths and choose their own endings.Set an exampleIf your ch ild never sees you reading, they aren’t going to pick up a book either.39 Having plenty of books around the house makes reading more accessible and the normal thing to do when bored. If you struggle with reading and literacy, do something about it by going back to college or attending a special adult literacy course.Make their own booksIf your child dislikes reading, think about encouraging them to start writing their own stories and novels. Buy them a special notebook. Allow them to write whatever cap tures their imagination, and don’t worry too much about messy handwriting or poor spelling. 40A.So how do you keep your kids interested in books?B.As long as a child is reading, it doesn’t matter what they are reading.C.Libraries will have a great range of books for children.D.There are newspapers printed especially for children.E.Reading and writing are often thought of as two separate issues.F.The idea is to cause an interest in books, reading and fiction, and the rest willdevelop over time.G.Next time pick up a newspaper or a book and encourage your child to sit with youand read too.36---40 ACBGF(五)How to Sleep BetterIf you’re having trouble getting good sleep through the night (turning, waking up more than once, for example), this text will tell you what you can do to ensure a peaceful night’s sleep.Get on schedule. Changing your sleeping time by more than an hour can severely disturb your sleep quality 16 For example, if you normally wake up at 6 a.m. on weekdays to get to work, you might go to bed around 10 p.m., because that’s when you start to feel sleepy, and it’s also a good time to e nsure 8 hours of sleep. If, ont he weekend, you sleep until 9 a.m., you probably won’t be able to fall asleep that night until 1a.m.17 Wait at least three hours after dinner before going to sleep. Digestion slows down while asleep, and a full stomach may interrupt sleep. Similarly, you should avoid going to bed on an empty stomach, as a completely empty stomach may equally disturb your sleeping patterns.18 Exposure to light during the time when you’re supposed to be sleeping can disturb your body’s internal clock. Turn your light off, or use a very dim night light, 19 They include windows, LED clocks, computer lights and cable boxes.Change your sleeping position.You may think that it’s impossible to control what position you sleep in since you aren’t fully aware of what you are doing, but it is possible and it can make a considerable difference. 20A.

高考英语阅读七选五题型专项练习10篇(附答案)

Several times each year the Queen gives afternoon tea parties at which guests are served tiny cakes filled with cream from her own cows. Cakes and sandwiches are brought in by footmen, yet you never see the Queen touch a thing. She simply sits beside a big silver plate, pouring cups of tea for everyone and carefully avoiding the cakes.At cocktail parties the Queen moves from group to group, chatting informally, and manages to make one glass of diet(节食)drink to last an entire evening.Tours abroad are difficult because hosts(主人)seem to believe the warmth of their welcome must be shown with wonderful state banquets(宴会). But the Queen has perfected the art of appearing to enjoy her meal without actually eating much.During one visit to the Pacific islands of Tonga, a specially-prepared dinner was arranged in a hut made of wood and bamboo leaves. Deep holes were dug in the ground, filled with hot stones and baby pigs, and the pigs were slowly baked over several days. The Queen looked uneasily at her plate when she discovered a whole roast pig was her serving.Then she became uneasy when a turkey, some meat, bananas and an apple were also carried in for each guest. So she depended on her old favorite trick of talking with her host. , King Tupou IV, carrying on a warm conversation. At the same time she pushed her food around her plate and only ate a piece of turkey and some fruit.Reporters traveling with her have noted that the Queen will sometimes seem so carried away by a foreign leader’s political chat that she simply never has time to finish a meal before it is time to get up and make her speech. She will lift her fork to swallow a mouthful, then put it down again to make another point, leaving almost all of her meal untouched.1. The main idea of the passage is about ____.A. the Queen’s favorite foodB. the Queen’s tours abroadC. how the Queen keeps her diet during her toursD. the Queen’s trouble with a foreign leader2. The Queen talked with her host and carried on conversation with him. The purpose of doing this is ____.A. to show her politenessB. not to eat muchC. to show her great interest in foodD. to hide her dislike to the food3. We can infer from the passage that tours are difficult for the Queen, because ____.A. she has to meet with so many important leadersB. she has to eat much oily foodC. she has so many reporters to travel with herD. hosts always present wonderful state banquets4. What probably is the Queen’s art of acting at state dinnersA. Appearing to enjoy her meal without actually eating much.B. Drinking Malvern water.C. Eating a piece of turkey and some fruit.D. Eating much without being noticed.【答案与解析】1. C解析：文章谈到了食品以及女王的“tours”，但主旨是女王如何“keep her diet”。

For example, if a wife “leads her husband by the nose”, she makes him do whatever she wants him to do.2 They will not change their opinions or positions on anything. If someone is “hard-nosed”, chances are that he will never “pay through the nose”, or pay too much money for an object or service.It is always helpful when people “keep their nose out of other people's business”. They do not interfere(干涉). The opposite o f this is someone who “noses around” all the time. 3 He is considered “nosey”. Someone who “keeps his nose to the grindstone(旋转磨石)” works very hard. This can help a worker “keep his nose clean” or stay out of trouble.One unusual expression is “that is no skin off my nose”. This means that a situation does not affect or concern me. We also say that sometimes a person “cuts off his nose to spite his face”. That is, he makes a situation worse for himself by doing something foolish because he is angry. More problems can develop if a person “looks down his nose” at someone or something. 4 This person might also “turn up his nose” at something that he considers not good enough. This person thinks he is better than everyone else. He “has his nose in the air”.5 They refuse to obey orders or do any work. Maybe these students do not know the correct answers. My mother always told me, if you study hard, the answers should be “right under your nose” or easily seen.A. This kind of person is interested in other people's private matters.B. In school, some students “thumb their nose” at their teacher.C. The nose also has a lot of other functions.D. Some people are said to be “hard-nosed”.E. The nose is also used in many popular expressions.F. He is interested in things that concern his work.G. The person acts like something is unimportant or worthless.第五篇：Tips for cooking on a Tight ScheduleFrom my experience, there are three main reasons why people don’t cook more often: ability, money and time, __1____Mone y is a topic I’ll save for another day. So today I want to give you some wisdom about how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen. Here are three tips for great cooking on a tight schedule: Think ahead. The moments when I think cooking is a p ain are when I’m already hungry and there is nothing ready to eat. So think about of the coming week. When will you have time to cook? Do you have the right materials ready? 2 Make your time worth it. When you do find time to cook a meal, make the most of it and save yourself time later on. Are you making one loaf of bread? 3 it takes around the same amount of time to make more of something. So save yourself the effort for a future meal.4 This may surprise you, but one of the best tools for making cooking worth your time is experimentation. It gives you the chance to hit upon new ideas and recipes that can work well with your appetite and schedule. The more you learn and the more you try, the more ability you have to take control of your food and your schedule.Hopefully that gives you a good start. 5 and don’t let a busy schedule discourage you from making some great changes in the way you eat and live!A.

Identity theft is a crime in which your personal information is stolen by someone and is used in an illegal way. When your identity is stolen, the thief often does fraud (诈骗) with that. He may get a credit card in your name and spend it carelessly without paying the bills; 1 and you have to be responsible for the traffic accidents he causes…Why is identity theft becoming so common? 2 . And the wealth of personal details people post on social networks such as Facebook also makes it easier for identity thieves to obtain personal information.Many people are not aware of the problems caused by this crime.

He may borrow money from the bank in your name第七篇：In many ways, Hamburger University is just like other schools. It has an 80-acre campus. It has classrooms and teachers and more than 275,000 graduates. 1 Instead, they are McDonald’s restaurant owners and workers learning how to do their jobs better.Hamburger University isn’t a business school. It’s a corporate university (企业大学). 2 As a result, the school teaches skills and methods that help improve efficiency in McDonald’s restaurants.Hamburger University is one of the world’s most famous corporate universities, but it is far from unique. 3 Companies operate corporate universities for many different reasons. Some improve the technical skills of employees. Others focus on training people in management. Still others help employees develop skills like learning to learn, creative thinking and problem solving.4 Their students often come from distant places and have full-time jobs. To make training possible for students, corporate universities have to use very flexible teaching methods. Some companies pay for their employees to attend specific classes at a local university. Others work with outside educators to develop courses for employees to take at their workplaces. Still others develop their own programs consisting of weekend and online courses.Corporate universities may never compete with traditional schools. But they have changed the way many see education. Training has always been difficult for busy employees. 5 Through them, continuing education is possible for many who, otherwise, wouldn’t have the chance to study.A.

I enjoyed staying with my grandparents when I was young child.1 People knew everyone, their kids, their pets and their ancestors. The relationship with them continued to grow as I grew and got older.2 She would make little sandwiches and we’d have tea parties. She’s plant flowers and carefully tend them. I remember the small thimble she would use while doing her needlework. Placing her thimble on her finger she’s remark: “I wouldn’t want to sew without one.”A few years ago when my grandmother passed away, I bade farewell to a loving grandmother.3 We had just had tea together a couple of moths earlier, on her 91st birthday. I missed her very much, but I noticed it particularly on my birthday, as there was no card from my grandmother. She’d never forgotten my birthday!On one particular birthday when I was feeling a little low, something happened to make me feel like she was sharing that special day with me. 4 They are what she had made, and suddenly I felt something inside one pillow. It was small and hard. I moved the object to a seam that I carefully opened, and to my delight out came a tiny silver thimble!5 Not realizing it had fallen off her finger, she sewed it in that little pillow that I just “happened” to fluff. I carefully laid the thimble alongside the others I’ve collected over the years, where I could continue to see the gift God chose to reveal to me.What a precious memory of a very special lady who somehow, I knew, was delighted to sew her thimble inside my pillow!A. How quickly our lives can change!B. I refused to go to the small town later.C.I loved the small town they lived in.D. I was arranging some colorful pillows.E. How sad I was to be unable to see a loving grandmother.F. Grandma was always using her hands for something exciting.G. How happy I was to find something that had been a part of her!第九篇：Britain’s high streets are dying slowlyTwenty years ago, the prosperous high street(繁华商业区) was the heart of most cities. It was crowded with customers. 1 Nowadays, high streets are declining, with very few shops and shoppers. With about 14 shops down every day, Britain’s high streets are dying little by little.2 It’s fairly easy to understand. To start with, people are spending less because of the economic recessi on(衰退). On top of that, more and more people are using the Internet to do their shopping. And it is not easy for shopkeepers in the high streets, either.3 Finally, there are the out-of-town retail parks with free car parking that sell just about everything at very low prices.What can be done? Prime Minister David Cameron has hired Mary Portas, a British business woman and star of TV show Mary Queen of Shops, to bring some life back into Britain’s high streets. She's talked about creating “magnets(磁石)” to attract people back to the centre. 4 In one town, a bicycle rickshaw(人力车) service is delivering people's shopping to their homes. 5 , where children can be cared for while parents are shopping.Members of the public have also voiced their opinions. “My ideal shopping center is one where there’s a wide selection of attractive looking shops, with cheap parking and good public transport links,” said a 28-year-old man. “I’d like to see Night Shopping evenings where shops are open through to 10 pm or later,” said a 22-year-old girl.A. They have to pay increasing high rents.B. But he is not the only one to solve the problem.C. But that’s all changed.D. In another town, they set up a nursery,E. In another town, they set up night shopping centers,F. They can make a fortune overnight.G. Why are high streets in such a desperate situation?第十篇：For some people，the warmest memories from childhood come from being read a great story． 1 It develops children’s language skills and increases the ir ability to succeed in school and，later，work．A new report by the American Academy of Pediatrics says reading aloud is so important that parents should start as soon as their children are born and continue to read aloud even after their children can read by themselves．They say parents should also point to and talk about pictures in books for infants(婴幼儿)． 2The company Scholastic is a major U．S．publisher of children’s books．Every two years，Scholastic publishes a report on American reading attitudes and habits．The 2015 report says only 31 percent of children in the U．S．read a book for fun almost every day．3 One is simply to have books in the home．Elizabeth Lyttleton，the mother of three，is lucky．Her mother once wrote and illustrated children’s books，so the family always have plenty to read．She says all her children learn from books—but in different ways.4 Researchers from the Scholastic company found that 80％of children surveyed —of all ages—say they love being read to．And children ages 6 to 11 whose parents do not read to them anymore say they miss it．5 _ Of all the six to 17-year-olds in the Scholastic study，more than 90％said their favorite books are the ones they chose for themselves．A．The Scholastic report also suggests permitting children to choose their own books．B．Scholastic also identifies some ways to develop a love of reading in a child．C．A book does not have to be serious to be good for kids．D．For young children，parents should ask questions about the book．E．Do children still read for fun?F．Another way to develop a reading habit in children is to read to them．G．But reading to children does more than create warm memories．第十一篇：Helping Students Find Their Writing V oicesOne of the most frustrating things for writing teachers is reading papers that simply lack style. When all of the research has been completed and all of the sentences are structured well, but the paper still lacks some pizzazz（活力），it can be boring to grade. If you are searching for ways to help your students find their voices, why not try making students themselves the topic of the writing? 1Who are you?One of the most difficult questions for students to answer is: “Who are you?” 2 In doing this, through writing, students will start to see their personalities differently and, hopefully, be able to add a feature to their writing.Dear John3Encourage them to write to a famous person they’ve always admired, and then the one they absolutely hate. Explore how their language changes between the two letters. When students know their audiences, it is much easier for them to add the kind of personality their audience wants to see．4When students write about what matters most to them, they will often give you the best writing you’ve ever seen. You’ll get those when you ask questions that hit home. When students have something to say about a given topic, it can be easier for them to get their ideas down and then work on their writing style.Get the words on paper, and then edit themThe most valuable lesson students can learn is to write first, and edit later. Have students written for five minutes about their topics. If they can get their ideas down on paper, that’s 90% of the battle. 5 This can help them realize that, once they have the ideas down, the rest is just fine tuning（微调）. Once they have this skill mastered, it’s easy for them to start adding their own personal voices to their papers.A.What matters to you?B. What style is taught in class?C. When they write about themselves, students’ voices often shine through.D. Writing letters is a great way for students to explore their writing style.E. Have your students explored who they are and what makes them unique.F. V oice is that magical quality which is able to make a creative writing idea sing!G. After that, have them edit these ideas into a really strong introductory paragraph.第十二篇：How to Sleep BetterIf you’re having trouble getting good sleep through the night (turning，waking up more than once，for example)，th is text will tell you what you can do to ensure a peaceful night’s sleep.1．Get on schedule. Changing your sleeping time by more than an hour can severely disturb your sleep quality. 1 For example，if you normally wake up at 6 am on weekdays to get to work，you might go to bed around 10 pm，because that’s when you start to feel sleepy，and it’s also a good time to ensure 8 hours of sleep. If，on the weekend，you sleep until 9 a.m，you probably won’t be able to fall asleep that night until 1 a.m.2. 2 Wait at least three hours after dinner before going to sleep. Digestion slows down while asleep，and a full stomach may interrupt sleep .Similarly，you should avoid going to bed on an empty stomach，as a completely empty stomach may equally disturb your sleeping patterns.3. 3 Exposure to light during the time when you’re supposed to be sleeping can disrupt your body’s internal clock. Turn your light off，or use a very dim night light. 4 They include windows，LED clocks，computer lights and cable boxes.4．Change your sleeping position. You may think that it’s impossible to control what position you sleep in since you aren’t fully aware of what you are doing，but it is possible and it can make a considerable difference. 5 A．Try to avoid all sources of light.B．Keep the room as dark as possible.C．Make note of unusual circumstances.D．Be mindful of what you eat or drink before bed.E．Sleep is considered to be adequate only when there is no daytime sleepiness.F．In other words，sudden change of sleeping time will affect your “biological clock”．G．If you wake up in the middle of the night，make an effort to have a comfortable position.第十三篇：Seeing with SoundAccording to a British news report，some blind people may finally get a chance to “see”．1 Dr. Peter Meijer，a scientist at Philips Research Laboratories in the Netherlands，has developed a new system called the vOICe．The three middle letters in vOICe stand for “Oh，I see．” Meijer’s groundbreaking technology may change the lives of visually impaired people all over the world．A wearable setup of vOICe system consists of a head-mounted camera，stereo headphones and a notebook PC．The system translates visual images from a camera into complex sounds． 2The program is based on the theory that people can hear certain sounds and learn to translate them into meaningful mental images．Everything has its own unique sound． 3 The height of an object or person could be determined by pitch(音调)．And a built-in color identifier speaks out color names when it is turned on．What the vOICe users have to learn is which sound goes with which object．Meijer says that he is counting on the brain’s ability to adapt．4 Within two weeks，most people who experiment with the vOICe system are able to identify objects such as walls and doors．They are also able to identify certain situations，including whether the lights in a room are on or off．5 Meijer thinks that translating will eventually become automatic for many users of the vOICe，bringing a form of vision to them for the very first time．A．Brighter areas sound louder than darker areas．B．It then sends these sounds to a person through headphones．C．However, they are not learning to see with their eyes；they are learning to see with their ears．D．The vOICe system is aiming to treat blindness by translating images from a camera into audio signals．E．Meijer supposes that the brain is interested in the information “content”，but not the information “carrier”．F．To evaluate the new system’s effectiveness, a nu mber of visually impaired people were chosen to test the v0ICe．G．Over time, some users have even learned to “watch” television or “recognize” the outlines of buildings as they walk．第十四篇：What A Real Leader DoesIs a leader merely a manager ? What should we expect from our leaders ? 1Yes, we do need leaders. On our own, we lack the vision, direction , and strength to reach our goals. We were all in need of guidance when we were children —— even the cleverest child could not possibly be expected to make certain crucial decisions. Once we become adults, with the capacity to reason for ourselves, we are facing so many pressures of daily survival that we rarely find time and energy to focus on life’s larger issues. And when we do, our emotions and subjectivity limit our vision and our movement.2 When we are occupied with our self-interest —— petty or great, a leader sends out a wake-up call, alerting us to seek the true priorities in life.With so many people trying to be leaders there days, how do we recognize a true leader ? To answer this question, we must step back and ask : 3A true leader wants nothing more than to make people stand on their own, as leaders in their own right. Instead of trying to blind us with his or her brilliance, a true leader reflects our own light back to us, so that we can see ourselves anew.The differences between a leader and a boss : A boss drives their employees, and a leader coaches them. A boss inspires fear, and a leader generates enthusiasm. A boss says “I”, and a leader says “We”. A boss places blame for breakdowns, and a leader fixes them. 4Decide now. Decide today. Are you going to be a real leader ? Are you going to develop real leaders ? 5 Remember, a leader with vision has a clear, vivid picture of where to go, as well as a firm grasp on what success looks like and how to achieve it.A．A leader provides a new perspective, inspiring us to abandon our narrow field of vision.B．This sense of urgency is just as important in a leader as a sense of vision.C．And do we really need leaders in the first place ?D．Are you going to inspire and generate enthusiasm ?E．We have a CEO who can direct thousands of employees toward a single objective, and politicians who inspire millions of citizens to support them.F．What is it that a leader is really trying to accomplish ?G．A boss knows how it is done, and a leader shows how it is done.第十五篇：What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange and red? 1 ．Do you prefer grey and blue? Then you are probably quiet, shy, and you would rather follow than lead．You tend to be a pessimist(悲观主义者)．At least，this is what psychologists tell us，and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference，as well as the effect that colors have on human beings． 2 ．If you happen to love brown，you did so，as soon as you opened your eyes，or at least as soon as you could see clearly．3 ．On the one hand，a yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful and more relaxed than a dark green one；and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the coldest winter day．4 ．A black bridge over the Thames River, near London．used to be the scene of more suicides(自杀)than any other bridge in the area—until it was repainted green．The number of suicide attempts immediately fell sharply．Perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue．5 ．It is self-evident that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or grey．A．On the other hand，black is depressing．B．The rooms are painted in different colors as you like．C．They tell us that we do not choose our favorite color as grow up—we are born with our preference．D．If you do，you must be an optimist(乐观主义者)，a leader or an active person who enjoys life．E．Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active.。

高考英语七选五题型专练

高考英语七选五题型专练(一)To forgive may be wonderful, but no one ever said it was easy. When someone has deeply hurt you, it can be extremely difficult to let go of your anger.___1___ In??deed, research has shown that people who forgive report more energy, better appetite and better sleep patterns. “People who forgive show less anger and more hopefulness,” says Dr. Freder??ic Luskin, who wrote the book Forgive for Good.So how do you start the healing? Try following these steps: Calm yourself. Take a couple of breaths and think of some??thing that gives you pleasure: a beautiful scene in nature, someone you love.Don’t wait for an apology. ___2___ Luskin says, “They may have wanted to hurt you or they just don’t see things the same way. So if you wait for people to apologize, you could be waiting a very long time.” Keep in mind that forgiveness does not necessarily mean coming to terms with the person who upsets you or forgiving his or her action after your quarrel.___3___ Mentally going over your hurt gives power to the person who brought you pain. “Instead, learn to look for the love, beauty and kindness around you.” Luskin says.___4___ If you attach great importance to that person, you mayrealize that he or she was acting out of ignorance, fear and even love. To gain others’ stand, you may want to write a letter to yourself from your offender’s point of view.___5___ Research has shown that people who forgive make a good show of more energy, better appetite and better sleeping patterns.Don’t forget to forgive yourself. “For some people, forgiving themselves is the biggest challenge." Luskin says, “but it can rob you of your self-confidence if you don’t do it.”A. Many times the person who hurt you may never think of apologizing.B. Break away from the influence of your offender on you early.C. But forgiveness is possible —and it can be surprisingly helpful toyour physical and mental health.D. Try to see things from the other person’s stand.E. So it is difficult to forgive others and even yourself.F. Recognize the benefits of forgiveness.G. Forgiveness is not good of people.(二)Why do some people have many friends while others do not? ___1___ However, it is not so. Let’s look at two psychological experiments which will give you the key to happy interpersonal relations.The first experiment is called the “Hawthorne effect” afterHawthorne, Illinois(伊利诺斯[美国州名]), where the experiment took place. A group of psychologists examined the work patterns of two groups of workers in the Western Electric Company. ____2_____. The psychologists changed the working conditions for one group twice but left the other group alone. They were surprised to find that productivity increased on both occasions and in both groups. They concluded that the increase in productivity came from the attention given to the workers by the management. It had increased their motivation and so they had worked harder. In other words, if you take an interest in others, they will want to please you and you will have good relations with them.___3___. After Martin Luther King, Jr was killed in 1960s, a teacher, Jane Elliott, living in an all-white town decided to help her class of young children understand why the Civil Rights Movement had been necessary in America.She divided the class into two groups: one with blue eyes and other with brown eyes. Other eye colors such as hazel or green were excluded from his exercise. Then she told the class that brown-eyed people were cleverer than blue-eyed ones because of an agent(化学作用) for brown color found in their blood. Blue-eyed people were stupid, lazy and not to be trusted. Jane Elliott did not need to say any more. The brown-eyed students quickly got used to their new role as the leaders of the class. The blue-eyed students became quiet and withdrawn. Then she discoveredsomething very interesting. Four poor brown-eyed readers began to read fluently in a way they had never done before. ___4___. So if you want to be successful and happy, take an interest in others whether they are your classmates or workmates. Congratulate them on their success and sympathize with them in their troubles. ___5___.A. Before the experiment the management talked to both groups of workers and explained that they wanted to find the best working environment for them.B. Remember that the way you treat others will decide their attitude and behavior to you.C. The second experiment shows what happens to personal relations if you are rude to or ignore others.D. The ones who have more friends usually are those who care about others.E. Jane Elliott had shown that the way people are treated affects not only their behavior but also their confidence and their performance.F. You may even imagine that this ability was something they were born with because it seems so effortless to them.G. The second experiment tells us what teachers said had a great effect on the students.(三)Advertising Everywhere1Now that messages can go around the world at high speed，the world is becoming smaller and products can be sold everywhere．But it is true that the problems of international advertising—problems of language and culture—have become larger than ever．For example，Braniff Airlines wanted to advertise its fine seals，but when its advertisement was translated from English into Spanish，it told people that they could fly without wearing clothes!To avoid problems in translation，most advertisement firms are now writing completely new ads．In writing new ads，international advertisers must choose different methods of advertising for different countries．In some countries，an advertisement usually gives a description of the productand explains why it is better than others．2But in Japan，the message is based more on situations and feelings than on words．For this reason，many television advertisements broadcast in Japan show people at a party，picnic，or in some other pleasant situations．They willnot say that a product is better than others．Instead，the goal will be to create a good feeling aboutthe product3For instance，certain countries will not allow TV advertisements on Sundays，and others will not allow them for children’s products on any day．The world advertiser who doesnot understand such laws aud customs will soon have problems．Finally，there is the choice of what to advertise．4So the best advertisement in the world means nothing if the product is not suitable for the market．Comparing such as McDonald’s in Hawaii，you will find Chinese food provided on the menu．If you stop at a McDonald’s in Germany，you can order a beer with your meal．All of these products must be sold with the right kind of message5But no matter how difficult this job may be，it is very important for global advenrtisers to do it well．Knowing how to advertise in the world market can help companies for success．A．People around the world have different likes and dislikes．B．This is true in the United States，Britain，and GemanyC．They just show how the product is madeD．In the advertising industry，selling products is the most important goalE．International advertisers must also consider differences in laws and customsF．It can be explained by a word，a passage，or even a pictureG．It can never be an easy job for advertisers to create message(四)I was in Tokyo last spring, walking in the street and talking with my dear friend Kirsten. 1It turned out to be a group of four very hipJapanese college students playing their music instruments for anyone who would listen.2In the middle of the second song, an old homeless man broke through the crowd and started shouting at the band. The musicians did their best to ignore him but the man would not go away. It seemed he was angry about the loud noise.I remember there were probably two dozen people watching this. 3I was also helpless because first, I couldn’t speak much Japanese, and second, the homeless man was starting to get more and more violent. At one point, he picked up a stick and started banging on the drum set.This was more than the young drummer could take. He stopped playing, stood up and pushed the old man to the ground.4He knelt down next to the old man, took hold of his hands and asked him if he was alright. I couldn’t understand what was being said, but I will never forget the way this young man helped bring the fallen man to his feet. And I will never forget the way he carefully placed his arm around the old man’s shoulders and quietly walked him away.5Maybe this old man was a prince in disguise. And maybe he was waiting to see someone act, just once, with beauty and courage.A.I couldn’t help but wonder.B.All of them went away at once.C.Suddenly, we heard the sound of a jazz band.D.Everybody became angry with the old man.E.But no one knew what they could or should do.F.However, not everyone was enjoying the music.G.At that time, a young Japanese man went through the crowd quietly.(五)Sleep is something we all do. But some people need to sleep more than others. Babies sleep most of the time. Children in school sleep about ten to twelve hours a night. Most grown-ups sleep only seven or eight hours. 1All parts of our bodies have to rest after they work. Our arms need a rest after we lift heavy things. When we run fast, our legs work hard. They get tired. We have to rest them. Our brains work hard, too.2We can sit quite still and rest our arms and legs. But our brains aren’t resting. They go right on thinking as long as we are awake.Our brains slow down a bit when we sleep and dream.3Instead of thinking wide-awake thought, our brains make up dreams. Some dreams are very pleasing. Some are not. Most of the time we forget them when we wake up.Scientists have tried to find out what would happen if people were not allowed to sleep. They asked some people not to go to bed. The people stayed up all night and all the next day. They stayed up the nextnight, too and the day after. They played games. But they made mistakes. They forgot things. 4 . The people grew rude and mean. They became angry with their friends. Finally they were too tired to stand up. The moment they sat down, they fell asleep.Scientists found that if people are not allowed to sleep, they act in an unusual way.5But we do know that we need it to stay well.So tonight have a good sleep. Lie down under the covers. Shut your eyes. Let your thoughts travel about. Soon you’ll stop thinking. You’ll be asleep.A. But even as we sleep our brains are doing some work.B. It was hard for their tired brains to work.C. When we are awake, they help us pay attention to the world around us.D. No one knows quite surely why sleep is so good for us.E. Good sleep helps to improve one’s memory.F. But babies, children and grown-ups ----all of us need to have our sleep.(六)It seems that the Englishmen just cannot live without sports of some kind. 1Wherever you go in this country, you will see both children andgrown-ups knocking a ball about with a stick or something, as if in Britain men shall always remain boys and women girls! Still, it can never be bad to get exercise, can it?Taking all amateur（业余）and professional sports in Britain into consideration, there can be no doubt that football is at the top of the list. 2 The game originated（起源于）in Britain and was played in the Middle Ages or even earlier, though as an organized game, or “association football”, it dates only from the beginning of the 19th century.3 . It is a kind of football played by two teams of fifteen players than eleven. In rugby, an oval-shaped ball is used which can be handled as well as kicked. It is a pretty rough game.In summer, cricket is the most popular sport. In fact, it has sometimes been called the English national game. Most foreigners find the game rather slow or even boring, but it enjoys great popularity among the British.4 . It was introduced into England from France in the 15th century, but it was from England that it spread to practically every country in the world.Table tennis, or “ping-pong, surely is not played on a great scale as it is in China or Japan.5 . Horse-back riding, swimming, rowing and golf all attract a lotof people.A. A famous French humorist once said that this is because theEnglish insist on behaving like children all their lives.B. It is called soccer in the United StatesC. The next is rugby, which is called “football” in the United StatesD. Tennis rates high on the list, tooE. Basketball and volleyball were introduced into Britain during the late 19th century from America and are gaining popularityF. people often work out to build up their bodies.G. not everyone likes ball games(七)1With the invention of the Internet several decades ago, do you feel that since then it has made us human beings feel more connected to the world and one another, or has it isolated（使孤立）us and made us feel more alone than ever before?What about you as an individual?● 2The Internet enables us to know what’s happening in the world. We couldn't imagine talking to people everywhere in the world twenty years ago.●3It unites us because we talk to others from all around our country and tha world, but the Internet can be addicting, and keep usaway from people for a while, There is an inherent (内在的) human need for direct human contact (e.g. touching, talking face to face, etc.) that the Internet has all taken away.● 4It has given me freedom beyond my imagination. I’m home-bound with many duties to attend to. My life is a bit too crowded. Duties duties duties. I get lost many times not knowing who I really am！This medium is my best friend. It just lets me BE！I can speak here without fear or favour.● 5Chatting online is completely different from hanging out with friends outside or hearing their voice over the phone．I find that it’s not just the Internet that has increased this sense of isolation，even iPods，MP3s，such devices kind of separate us，make us lose focus on the everyday happenings of life．A. I think that the Internet isolates as well as unites us.B. I believe it unites us more than it isolates us.C. Do you feel that the Internet unites us or isolates us?D. What is happening in the world today?E. The Internet is playing a more and more important role.F. I think it has isolated us more.G. I am truly grateful for this new technology.(八)Brain TransplantsResearch on the human brain has been attracting more and more scientists in recent years.1If we compare a human brain to a hard disc, what the scientists are doing is to make better use of the hard disc.The idea that a human brain could be transplanted (移植) may come from Frankenstein. In 2019, an experiment turned a bear into a dolphin (海豚).2They were made of the memory area in the dolphin’s brain containing information about swimming. They had a series of useful information, which was saved into a button – sized chip (芯片). Later the information was transplanted into the action memory area in the bear’s brain.3It proved to be a highly successful experiment and a bear was turned into a dolphin.Recently, another memory transplant was performed at the Motor Nerve Rescarch Instance of the University of California. The experiment bad an entire transplant of the memory area.4The transplant was performed from a dog named Cenius to a dog named idiot. Cenius could follow up to 100 gestures and orders made by its master. It was a real genius in memorizing. However, Idiot had no contact with people since its birth. It because an animal with nothing in its brain, without any memory.5When the two dogs woke up, Idiot had grasped all the abilities Cenius possessed; it was good at memorizing and sensible. It could follow every gesture and any command given by its master. But Ceniusgave no response to its master, and did not recognize him at all.A．The experiment was a complete success.B．It included actions, moods, logic, words, images, etc.C．Then it was released (释放) by means of electric power.D．Different images have different meanings in the memory area.E．Using the most advanced technology, detailed images were produced.F．Discoveries show that messages are carried by the central nervous system in the brain.G．One of the latest topics is how to change the human brain or combine it with the computer.(九)(1) ______You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessarily so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here’s how:Plan your time carefully. When planning your work, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular time for studying.(2)______ A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you realize what is happening to your time.Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good studyarea. Keep this space, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios, or television. When you sit down to study, concentrate on the subject.Make good use of your time in class. (3)______ Listening carefully in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes, review the important points that your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read that material. (4)_______ If you do these things regularly, the material will become more meaningful, and you’ll remember it longer.Develop a good attitude towards tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. They help you remember your new knowledge. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t be over worried.(5)_______ You will probably discover them after you have tried these.A. There are other methods that might help you with your studying.B. Don’t forget to set aside enough time for entertainment.C. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teacher says.D. No one can become a top student unless he or she works hard.E. Maybe you are an average student.F. Make full use of class time to take notes of what the teacher says in class.G. This will help you understand the next class.(十)1Frankly, I very much appreciate myself. Yes, I admit I’m in many respects(方面) not as good as other people, but I don’t think I’m always not good. When I find what I’ve done or written is okay, I’ll remain pleased with myself for quite a few days, and in case I receive praise for it, I’ll even become so excited as to add a few words to glorify(赞美) myself.True, I’m not modest at all. 2But I think otherwise.3I appreciate anything good. Isn’t it unfair to forget appreciating myself while appreciating others?We Chinese are generally inclined(倾向的) to be modest, and we take pride in being so. For example, a Chinese will call his own wife zhuojing, meaning “my humble wife”, and his own writings zhuozuo, meaning “my poor writings”. But if you should call his wife a “rustic(乡巴佬) woman” or his writings “trash”, he would , I’m sure, slap the table in a rage and declare he would make a clean break with you. 4I don’t think it’s wrong for you to freely praise yourself if you’rereally worthy of praise. As we know, there is an old Chinese saying disparaging(轻视的) a melon peddler, named Lao Wang, who keeps praising his own goods. Well, why can’t he praise his melons if they are really weet and juicy?Friends, Lao Wang sells melons for a living. How could he carry on business if he, by imitating the affections of us intellectuals(知识分子)，were to show false modesty about his melons? He would sure enough die of starvation.Self-appreciation is therefore key to professional dedication(贡献) and enjoyment of work.. 5Needless to say, the same is true of those who make a living with their pen.A. I also appreciate other people.B. On Self-controlC. On Self-AppreciationD. People may call me conceited(自负的).E. We need appreciate ourselves.F. One will lose confidence in continuing with writing when he ceases(停止) to admire his own essays.G. As a matter of fact, there is probably no differenc at all between what is said by him and you respectively(各别地).(十一)Being healthy means taking care of yourself physically andmentally. Here are some of my best tips on how to do both:Break a bad habit.You don’t really “break” habits. __1__. So if your problem is that you eat too much when you get home from work, find something new to do that is incompatible（不能共存的）with what you usually do. You can’t walk around the track at the school and pig out in your kitchen at the same time.Grow your marriage.2_. It’s always a give-and-take, always requires work. It’s as if you planted a garden and came back six months later─you wouldn’t even be able to find it. __3__.Beat stress.My dog, Maggie, is the best anti-stress tool I have. A few minutes petting, scratching or playing with her, and __4__. Exercise also helps. Just about every day, I’m on the tennis court. It’s a great workout, and if I don’t have that, I don’t cope as well, sleep as well or think as well.Refocus your anger.Expressing your anger is just not that good an idea. You say things you don’t mean. __5__. When you do that, you’re a problem solver.Don’t medicate(掺入药) with food.It never, ever works. You’re denying your issue by eating your way through it, instead of saying, “Hey, I’ve got a problem.”A.You replace the unwanted behavior with something that preventsyou from doing it and that doesn’t have unhealthy side effects.B.I’ll feel easy.C.If there is a problem, you needn’t deal with it immediately.D.You have to tend it, feed it, weed it, and deal with the problems.E.Instead, recognize that anger is usually a symptom of hurt, fear or frustration, and deal with the causes rather than blow up.F.Relationships are negotiated（协商）, and the negotiation never stops.G.You do something without any good effect on your health during the time when you usually do something harmful to your body.(十二)Choosing the right job is probably one of the most important decisions we have to make in life, and it is frequently one of the hardest decisions we have to make. One important question that you might ask yourself is: "How do I get a good job?" 1.There are people who can answer an insignificant advertisement in the local paper and find the best job in the world; others write to all sorts of places all over the country, and never seem to get a reply at all. Still others believe that the in-person, door-to-door approach is by far the best way to get a job; and then there are those who, through no active decisionof their own, just seem to be in the right place at the right time. 2. He used to spend a lot of his free time down by the sea watching the tall ships, but never thinking that he might one day sail one of them. His father was a farmer, and being a sailor could never be anything for the boy but an idle dream. One day, on his usual wandering, he heard the captain of the ship complaining that he could not sail because one member of his crew was sick. Without stopping to think, the young man offered to take his place. 3.4 . If the young man had gone home to ponder（考虑）his decision for a week, he may have missed his chance. It is one thing to be offered an opportunity; it is another thing to take it and use it well.Sometimes we hear stories about people who break all the rules and still seem to get plum jobs（美差）. When you go for a job interview or fill out an application, you are expected to say nice things about the company to which you are applying. 5. And within a year this person had become general manger of the company.A．This story also illustrates the importance of seizing an opportunity when it presents itself.B．People find jobs in an limitless number of ways.C．It's almost impossible to find a good job by answering advertisement in newspapers.D．Take for example the young man who wanted to be a sailor.E．But there was one person who landed an excellent job by telling the interviewerall the company's faults.F．He spent the rest of his life happily sailing the ships he had always loved.G．It is very important to seize an opportunity when you are given one.(十三)McDonald's Corporation （NYSE: MCD）is the world's largest chain of hamburger fast food restaurants, serving nearly 47 million customers daily．______1____Brands （KFC, Taco Bell and others）and sandwich chain Subway．In addition to its signature restaurant chain, McDonald’s Corporation held a minority interest in Pret A Manger until 2019, and owned the Chipotle Mexican Grill until 2019 and the restaurant chain Boston Market until 2019．______2___The corporations' revenues come from the rent, royalties and fees paid by the franchisees, as well as sales in company-operated restaurants．____3_____In response to obesity trends in western nations and in the face of criticism over the healthiness of its products, the company has modified its menu to include such healthier alternatives as salads, wraps and fruit．The business began in 1940, with a restaurant opened by brothers Dick and Mac McDonald in San Bernardino, California．Their introduction of the "Speedee Service System" in 1948 established the principles of the modern fast-food restaurant．The original mascot of McDonald's was a man with a chef's hat on top of a hamburger shaped head whose name was "Speedee．" Speedee was eventually replaced with Ronald McDonald in 1963．The first McDonald's restaurants opened in the United States, Canada, Costa Rica, Japan, the Netherlands, Germany, Australia, France, El Salvador and Sweden in order of openings．The present corporation dates its founding to the opening of a franchised restaurant by Ray Kroc, in Des Plaines, Illinois on April 15, 1955, the ninth McDonald's restaurant overall．___4____Kroc was also noted for aggressive business practices, compelling the McDonald brothers to leave the fast food industry．The McDonald brothers and Kroc feuded over control of the business, as documented in both Kroc's autobiography and in the McDonald brothers' autobiography．_____5____A．McDonald's primarily sells hamburgers, cheeseburgers, chicken products, french fries, breakfast items, soft drinks, milkshakesand desserts．B．The site of the McDonald brothers' original restaurant is now a monument．C．At one time it was the largest global restaurant chain, but it has since beensurpassed by multi-brand operator Yum!D．Each McDonald's restaurant is operated by a franchisee, an affiliate, or the corporation itself．E．The company has also expanded the McDonald's menu in recent decades to include alternative meal options。

英语高考专项训练七选五(含答案)

Reading books can exercise your brain. Kids who started reading at an earlier age go on to perform better on certain intelligence tests, such as analyses of their vocabulary size. As one gets older, it might help slow down or even cease cognitive decline. ________ Many Americans don't read frequently. It's time to reverse this trend to give your brain gray matter a good workout.________When you have some down time—you're waiting for a friend, sleeping lightly on the way from or to work, or doing a task that doesn't require your full attention—you can open your text instead of pulling up your favorite smartphone game. ________ While paper is still the clear winner in the court of public opinion, science hasn't proven that physical books are better than digital ones.Academic research has mostly focused on the ability to remember. A study took place in a laboratory setting：Students all read the same text, but some looked at the words on paper and others viewed an on-screen PDF. It turned out that no meaningful difference between the two media existed. As for audiobooks, they affected the brain gray matter somewhat differently.________Ultimately, if you hope to get a reading habit going, you shouldn't dismiss paper digital, or audio—________ Don't be afraid to change things up depending on the occasion.A. Audiobooks still affect your thoughts and feelings.B. Go with what makes the most sense for your needs.C. Words on a page can improve the emotional intelligence.D. This brings about a great debate: pages vs screens vs audio.E. Keep a book, e-reader, or audiobook app on you as you go about the day.F. Despite this, the overall book-reading time for Americans is on the decline.G. However, they stimulated the brain just as deeply as black-and-white pages.Smart glasses could be the next leap in technologyFirst there was the keyboard, then the touch screen. Some tech companies say a wearable pair of glasses could be the next leap in technology, even if it didn't work out for Google glass. In the future we won't be only limited to our smartphones, when it comes to understanding the world around us. ________The US-based company Snap's investment is this, the Spectacles 3 sunglasses.

Unsurprisingly, there are various tea-leaves in China.________Color________Good green tea-leaves have jade green with fresh vitality. Twisted pan green tea shows glossy gray green. If some of the tea-leaves have dry, dark and brown color, it means it is old tea.

Many people practice flying a hot-air balloon as a sport. ________ Some people may question the safety of riding ahot-air balloon. Generally speaking, hot-air balloons are quite safe.Before examining the safety of hot-air balloons, it may help to understand how they work. Each balloon has a large bag called an envelope, attached to a bag or gondola(吊篮). In order to get enough lift, the air in the bag is heated with the assistance of a flame. As the air heats up, the balloon rises. ________Like kites, hot-air balloons travel with the wind. Typically, pilots choose the early morning hours to fly since wind speeds are low. ________ Meanwhile, the flight will become more enjoyable.________High winds and extreme weather such as storm and snow are very dangerous. An experienced pilot will not fly in these conditions. Good pilots always check their equipment before beginning a flight, and they often carry backup for safety even in sunny days.Riding hot-air balloons can be great fun, and it's very safe as long as passengers follow the directions of the pilot. ________ People who have a fear of heights may want to skip the experience, however.A. Of course, some people enjoy it as a relaxing activity.B. Low wind speeds make flying hot-air balloons much safer.C. This, of course, is for those who love to challenge themselves.D. The requirements of flying a hot-air balloon vary in different nations.E. The weather is the most important concern in the safety of hot-air balloons.F.

When the flight is over, the pilot slowly lets out air to allow the balloon to drop.You probably know that exercise is good for you. Studies show that it can prevent many major health conditions, including cognitive decline, diabetes, certain cancers and more.________"Our lives are completely full. We may have children, aging parents, jobs, partners, and community," says Barbara Hannah Grufferman, author of The Best of Everything After 50.If you don't have a regular exercise plan, don't worry! There are simple things you can do to get more exercise, no gym membership or hours of commitment required.Walk-and make it countEven if you're not in shape, you can likely walk. And that's good news, because many studies illustrate that it's one of the best things we can do for our bodies. Grufferman suggests getting a pedometer(计步器），whether it's a simple mechanical one, or a FitBit or Jawbone.________ And then, start walking faster and longer-most experts recommend walking 10,000 steps a day. Reduce sittingYou've probably heard," sitting is the new smoking." Well, this means that loads of research has shown that sitting for extended periods of time can have serious health consequences that range from obesity to diabetes and more. ________ It's also essential to take breaks from your sit-down desk.Run if you canIt might seem out of reach, but if you can add some light running into your daily walk, you'll be better for it. Running can make you happier, strengthen your joints, improve heart health, and improve your memory! ________ Then, go for longer distances gradually.Make it a habitTo truly make exercise-even the basics-a part of your life you'll need to make it a habit. "The good news is that it's never too late to start," says Grufferman. ________A. Track your steps because it's very motivating.B. But finding time to get more exercise can be challenging.C. Make sure you are more active and have a more enjoyable life.D. Experts suggest using a standing desk at least some of the time.E.

When first introduced in Japan in 1999, emojis were limited to 176 simple designs. Now there are more than 3,000 emojis. Due to their popularity, the Oxford Dictionaries Word of the Year in 2015 was a pictograph instead of a traditional word.In today's world, emojis have become more and more popular.________ People like them because they add emotional meanings, and are quick and easy to use. With a smiling or sad face added to a message or post, your reader can "see" your facial expression while reading your words.________ For instance, if your friend is moving across the country, you may just send them a string of crying faces to express your sadness over your separation.________ A Shakespeare series for young readers has taken William Shakespeare's popular plays and replaced some words with textspeak and emojis. The intention of these adaptations is to make the classics more accessible to young readers. Some people, however, believe that these new versions have taken away the heart and soul of Shakespeare's plays.As we can see, emojis have a tendency to pop up all over the place. Users of emojis say that they facilitate the way we communicate and express ourselves. But this makes others, especially educators, worry that we are losing the ability to communicate properly using the written word, or even the spoken word. After all, how many of us today would rather send a message packed with emojis than make a telephone call?________ On that day, emojis will have become a real pictorial "language". But, for now, maybe it's best that we just enjoy using them.A. Maybe emojis' best days are ahead.B. The most popular emojis are absolute classics.C. The use of emojis has even spread to classical literature.D. Perhaps people will one day choose to communicate in pictures.E. It seems that emojis have clear advantages over written language.F. Emojis are small symbols representing ideas, emotions or feelings.G. Emojis can also help people express their feelings when they can't find the appropriate words.The WHO says that 80% of the world's teens don't get enough exercise to live healthy lives. The report was based on research done with students aged 11 to 17 in 146 different countries.________ It's a pity that not much has changed since then, as the WHO reports.Doctors say 60 minutes of exercise daily is needed for teens to build up their bone and muscle strength. It's also hugely important for the health of the heart and lungs. ________ Besides, more and more research is showing that exercise doesn't just help the body, but also the brain, improving thinking, test scores, and school grades.________ They were also very different between boys and girls. In the US, for example, 64% of boys were not active enough, compared to 80% of girls. South Korea was the country with the lowest activity levels — 91% of the boys and 97% of the girls didn't get enough exercise.One big reason for the lack of activity in today's teens is technology, such as smartphones, computers and TVs. Many teens find it hard to pull themselves away from them. ________So the WHO warns that teens need to do less playing in the digital world, and more playing in the real world. Teens should take part in sports, whether on official teams or just playing around on the playground. ________ For many people, walking or biking to school is one way to make that happen. It's very important for young people to build these habits now, because the positive effects of those habits can carry through into adult life.A. Exercise benefits you academically.B. Activity levels vary from country to country.C. The WHO has spared no effort in the research.D. Such inactivity can severely affect their growth.E. Exercise can also be built into a normal day's activities.F. Regular activity can help them control their weight, too.G. The WHO has been studying teen activity levels since 2001.。

anyone had told me three years ago that I would be spending most of my weekends camping．I would have laughed heartily．Campers，in my eyes，were people who enjoyed insects bites，ill-cooked meals，and uncomfortable sleeping bags．They had nothing in common with me．（36） ______ ．The friends who introduced me to camping thought that it meant to be a pioneer．（37） ______ We sleep in a tent，cooked over an open fire，and walked a long distance to take the shower and use the bathroom．This brief visit with Mother Nature cost me two days off from work，recovering from a bad case of sunburn and the doctor′s bill for my son′s food poisoning．I was，nevertheless，talked into going on another fun-filled holiday in the wilderness．（38） ______ Instead，we had a pop-up camper with comfortable beds and an air conditioner．My nature-loving friends had remembered to bring all the necessities of life．（39） ______ We have done a lot of it since．Recently，we bought a twenty-eight-foot travel trailer complete with a bathroom and a built-in TV set．There is a separate bedroom，a modern kitchen with a refrigerator．The trailer even has matching carpet and curtains．（40） ______ It must be true that sooner or later，everyone finds his or her way back to nature．I recommend that you find your way in style．A．This time there was no tent．B．Things are going to be improved．C．The trip they took me on was a rough

as the trees were no more than 3 feet tall．DCAFE36．D 上文They had nothing in common with me 说明作者原来认为他不会成为野营者．而下文主要描述的是"我"从最开始进行"rough travel"到有了"pop-up camper"再到有了trailer 的过程，在这过程中作者对野营的爱好逐步增加，对野营的相关知识也在逐步增长，上下文呈转折关系．D项意为"然而在那之后我将会学到关于野营的很多知识"，起到转折作用，引出下文，符合语境．故正确答案为D．37．C 由下文We sleep in a tent，cooked over an open fire，and walked a long distance to take the shower and use the bathroom 可知，"我"的野营条件非常艰苦．C项意为"他们带我去的旅途非常艰苦"，引出下文，符合语境．故正确答案为C．38．A 由下文Instead，we had a pop-up camper with comfortable beds and an air conditioner 可知，空格处是与下文形成转折的内容，而"我"此次旅行用了展开式营房．A项意为"这一次没有帐篷"，与下文形成转折，符合语境．故正确答案为A．39．F 由第三段第一句going on another fun-filled holiday 可知，"我"对这次旅行非常满意，而由下文We have done a lot of it since 可知，"我们"都爱上了野营．F项意为"从这里旅行后，我全家都对野营产生了巨大的兴趣"，承上启下，符合语境．故正确答案为F．40．E 由下文sooner or later，everyone finds his or her way back to nature 可知，"我"希望每个人都能找到回归自然，也就是野营的个性化选择．形成这一观点的前提是"我"自己已经爱上了野营．E项意为"我必须承认我已经开始享受野营了"，引出下文，符合语境．故正确答案为E．本文讲述了作者起初不喜欢野营，到经历一次非常舒适的野营经历，作者找到了使自己舒适的方式，从而喜欢上了野营．七选五阅读理解的题目常常出现在以下几点：一是描述性结构，主要介绍事物、问题或倾向的特点，因此时间、地点常是出题重点（记叙文）；二是释意性结果，解释某一理论、学科、事物，主要用比喻、类比阐述（说明文）；三是比较性结构，把两个人或事物的功能、特点、优缺点进行对比（议论文）；四是原因性结构，主要分析事物的成因，有客观的、主观的，也有直接的、间接的（说明文）；五是驳斥性结构，主要是先介绍一种观点，然后对其评论或驳斥，再分析其优缺点、危害性，最后阐明自己的观点（议论文）．。

高考英语阅读七选五专项训练（10题）依据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

选项中有两项为多余选项。

专项练习一For over one hundred and fifty years, Americans of all social classes have worn blue jeans．1 Whether they are worn for work or for fashion today．Strauss' invention continues to be popular not only among Americans but also among people around the world．Levi Strauss was born in Germany in 1829． 2 He grew up in Kentucky before moving to New York in 1847．Before becoming an American citizen and moving to the West in 1853, Strauss worked in his brother's dry goods business．This gave him a chance to produce his famous invention．After the gold rush of 1849, Strauss decided to move to the West to seek his fortunes．Strauss did not want to be a person who searched an area for minerals．Instead, he knew he could make a good living by selling supplies to the miners．At first, he planned to sell sewing supplies and cloth． 3 When he heard miners complaining that their clothes were easily broken or they usually tore their pockets during mining, he decided to use a special fabric to make pants for the miners．These pants proved so popular that he quickly ran out of materials to make more．In 1873, Strauss received a letter from a Jewish tailor named Jacob Davis who had invented a process of connecting pockets with copper rivets（铆钉）．This made the pants last a long time．Because Davis did not have the money to patent his idea, he offered to share it with Strauss if Strauss would agree to pay for the patent． 4 ．By the time Strauss died in 1902, he had made a great contribution to American fashion．5 The business has been growing ever since and Levi Strauss' company is now one of the largest clothing companies in the world．A．As a young boy, he moved with his family to the United States．B．Nobody knew what kind of material was suitable．C．He did and Levi jeans have been made with metal rivets ever since．D．However, he did not get much business for those products．E．He also made a great contribution to America's clothing industry．F．Since they were invented by Levi Strauss, they have become a symbol of American consumer culture．G．As the business grew, Strauss got much money from it．专项练习二Recently some American scientists have given a useful piece of advice to people in industrialized nations．They say people should eat more of the same kind of food eaten by humans living more than 10,000 years ago． 1The scientists say that the human life has changed greatly．Our bodies have not been able to deal with these changes in lifestyle and this had led to new kinds of sicknesses．2 So they are called "diseases of civilization"．Many cancers and diseases of the blood system are examples of such diseases.Scientists noted that people in both the Old Stone Age and the New Stone Age enjoyed very little alcohol or tobacco, probably none． 3 However, a change in food is oneof the main differences between life in ancient times and that of today.Stone Age people hunted wild animals for their meat, which had much less fat than domestic ones．They ate a lot of fresh wild vegetables and fruits．They did not have milk or any other dairy products, and they made very little use of grains． 4 We eat six times more salt than our ancestors．We eat more sugar．We eat twice as much fat but only one third as much protein and much less vitamin C.5 But scientists say that we would be much healthier if we eat much the same way the ancient people did, cutting the amount of fatty, salty and sweet food.A．Stone Age people lived a simple life.B．But today, we enjoy eating a lot of these.C．In that case, they would live much healthier.D．Ancient people also got lots of physical exercise.E．These new sicknesses were not known in ancient times.F．People today probably don't want to live like our ancestors.G．Modern people used to suffer from "diseases of civilization".专项练习三For the rest of March, a disease will sweep across the US. It will keep kids home from school.1 Employees will suddenly lose their ability to concentrate.The disease, known as “March Madness”, refers to the yearly 65 –team US men’s college basketball tournament (锦标赛). 2 Teams compete against each other in a single – elimination (单局淘汰) tournament that eventually crowns a national champion.Nearly 20 million Americans will find themselves prisoners of basketball festival madness. The fun comes partly from guessing the winners for every game. Friends compete against friends.3 Colleagues against bosses.Big – name schools are usually favored to advance into the tournament. But each year there are dark horses from little – known universities.This adds to the madness. Watching a team from a school with 3,000 students beat a team from a school with 30,000, for many Americans, is an exciting experience. Two years ago, the little – known George Mason University was one of the final four teams. 4College basketball players are not paid, so the game is more about making a name for their university and themselves. 5 About $ 4 billion will be spent gambling (赌) on the event. According to Media Life magazine, the event will bring in $ 500 million in advertising income this year, topping the post – season income of every US professional league, including that of the NBA.A. Husbands against wives.B. The players will go all out for the games.C. But that doesn’t mean money isn’t involved.D. College students will ignore piles of homework.E. People are willing to spend more money on watching it.F. It begins on March 15 and lasts through the beginning of April.G. Many people had never even heard of the university before the tournament.专项练习四Everyone knows that the Frenchmen are romantic, the Italians are fashionable and the Germans are serious. Are these just stereotypes or is there really such a thing as national character And if there is, can it affect how a nation succeed or failAt least one group of people is certain that it can. A recent survey of the top 500 entrepreneurs (企业家) in the UK found that 70% felt that their efforts were not appreciated by the British public. Britain is hostile (敌意的) to success, they said. It has a culture of jealousy(嫉妒). 1 Jealousy is sometimes known as the “green –eyed monster” and the UK is its home.Scientists at Warwich University in the UK recently tested this idea. They gathered a group of people together and gave each an imaginary amount of money. 2 Those given a little were given the chance to destroy the large amount of money given to others – but at the cost of losing their own. Two thirds of the people tested agreed to do this.3 .But there is also opposite evidence. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development recently reported that the UK is now the world’s fourth largest economy. That is not bad for people who are supposed to hate success. People in the UK also work longer hours than anyone else in Europe. So the British people are not lazy, either.“It is not really success that the British dislike,” says Carey Cooper, a professor of management at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology. “It’s people using their success in a way that seems proud or unfair or which separates them from their roots.”4They set out to do things in their way. They work long hours. By their own efforts they become millionaires. 5 .It hardly seems worth following their example. If they were more friendly, people would like them more. And more people want to be like them.A. This seems to prove that the entrepreneurs were right to complain.B.The one who owns most money in the end is the winner.C.As a result, the survey said, entrepreneurs were “unloved, unwanted and misunderstood.”D.It is not true that British people are born jealous of others` success.E. Some were given a little, others a great deal.F. But instead of being happy they complain that nobody loves them.G. Perhaps it is the entrepreneurs who are the problem.专项练习五1 When a starving man gets a meal, he begins to think about an overcoat; when an executive gets a new sports car, visions of country clubs and pleasure beats dance into view.The many wants of mankind might be regarded as making up several levels. 2 .The first and most basic level of wants involves food. Once this want is satisfied, a second level of wants appears: clothing and some sort of shelter. By the end of World War II these wants were satisfied for a great majority of Americans. 3 It included such items as automobile sand new houses.By 1957 or 1958 this third level of wants was fairly well satisfied. Then, in the late 1950s a fourth level of wants appeared: the “life-enriching”level. While the other levels involve physical satisfaction－the feeding, comfort, safety, and transportation of the human body－this level stresses mental needs for recognition, achievement and happiness. It includes a variety of goods andservices, many of which could be called “luxury” items. Among them are vacation trips, the best medical care, and entertainment. 4One this level, a greater percentage of consumer spending goes to services, while on the first three levels more is spent on goods. Will consumers raise their sights to a fifth level of wants as their income increases, or will they continue to demand luxuries and personal services on the fourth levelA fifth level probably would involve wants that can be achieved best by community action. Consumers may be spending more on taxes to pay for government action against disease, ignorance, crime and prejudice. 5 In this way, we can enjoy more fully the good things on the first four levels.A．Then a third level appeared.B．Human wants seem endless.C．When there is money enough to satisfy one level of wants, another level appears.D．There are several levels of wants in one’s life.E．At this stage, we now may seek to ensure the health, safety, and leisure.F．Also included here are fancy foods and the latest styles in clothing.G．Different people have different wants on each level.专项练习六We are all called upon to make a speech at some point in life, but most of us don’t do a very good job. 1 .So, you have to give a speech—and you are terrified. You get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you stumble（结结巴巴）over words, you talk too long, and you bore your audience. Later you th ink, “Thank Goodness, it’s over. I’m just not good at public speaking. I hope I never have to do that again.”Cheep up! 2 . Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making. Ask yourself the purpose of your speech. What is the occasion Why are you speaking Then, gather as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of your time doing your research. Then spend plenty of your time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible, and use pictures, charts, and graphs if they help you make your points more clearly. 3 . Don’t talk over their heads, and don’t talk down to them. Treat your audience with respect. They will appreciate your thoughtfulness.Just remember: Be prepared. Know your subject, your audience, and the occasion. Be brief.4 . And be yourself. Let your personality come through so that you make person-to-person contact with your audience.If you follow these simple steps, you will see that you don’t have to be afraid of public speaking. In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more speeches! You’re not convinced yet 5 .A. It doesn’t have to be that bad.B. Take several deep breaths before your speech.C. This article gives some advice on how to give a good speech.D. Say what you have to say and then stop.E. Don’t say what you aren’t familiar with.F. Never forget your audience.G. Give it a try and see what happens.专项练习七There is an English saying:“ 1._.” Until recently, few people took the saying seriously. Now, however, doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body. 2. ___Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their hearts, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise. 3._. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs. The group that tolerated(忍受) the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program. 4.___.5.___. They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing , making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter.A. Laughter can prolong one’s life.B. As a result of these discoveries, some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics in which they help to improve their patients’ condition by encouraging them to laugh.C. The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemicals in the brain which diminish both stress and pain.D. It increases blood pressure, the heart beating and breathing; it also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach and even the feet.E. Although laughter helps cure the disease, doctors still can not put this theory into clinic practice.F. Laughter is the best medicine.G. They have found that laughter really can improve people’s health.专项练习八Why do some people have many friends while others do not 1 However, it is not so. Let’s look at two psychological experiments which will give you the key to happy interpersonal relations.The first experiment is called the “Hawthorne effect” after Hawthorne, Illinois, where the experiment took place. A group of psychologists examined the work patterns of two groups of workers in the Western Electric Company. 2 .The psychologists changed the working conditions for one group twice but left the other group alone. They were surprised to find that productivity increase on both occasions and in both groups. They concluded that the increase in productivity came from the attention given to the workers by the management. It had increased their motivation (主动性) and so they had worked harder. In other words, if you take an interest in others ,they will want to please you and you will have good relations with them.3 After Martin Luther King, Jr was killed in the 1960s, a teacher, Jane Elliott, living in an all –white town decided to help her class of young children understand why the Civil Rights Movement had been necessary in America.She divided the class into two groups: one with blue eyes and the other with brown eyes. Other eye colours such as hazel or green were excluded from his exercise. Then she told the class that brown – eyed people were cleverer than blue – eyed ones because of an agent (化学作用) for brown colour found in their blood. Blue – eyed people were stupid, lazy and not to be trusted. Jane Elliott did not need to say any more. The brown – eyed students quickly got used to their new role as the leaders of the class. The blue –eyed students became quiet and withdrawn. Then she discovered something very interesting. Four poor brown – eyed readers began to read fluently in a way they had never done before. 4 .So if you want to be successful and happy, take an interest in others whether they are your classmates or workmates. Congratulate them on their successes and sympathize(怜悯) with them in their troubles. 5 .A. Before the experiment the management talked to both groups of workers and explained that they wanted to find the best working environment for them.B. Remember that the way you treat others will decide their attitude and behaviour to you.C. The second experiment shows what happens to personal relations if you are rude to or ignore（忽视）others.D. The ones who have more friends usually are those who care about others.E. Jane Elliott had shown that the way people are treated affects not only their behaviour but also their confidence and their performance.F.You may even imagine that this ability was something they were born with because it seems so effortless to them.G. The second experiment tells us what teachers said has a great effect on the students.专项练习九The seven Cs of a good letterWhat is the secret of writing a good letter Here are two main ones. Don’t try to be fancy. Don’t try to impress your reader. You will be successful if you follow these seven Cs.e short, direct sentences. 1 Talk as if the reader were right there with you .Above all, don’t use an introduction.Correct, 2 Don’t guess, even for spelling.

高考英语七选五专项练习10.0学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解Five Top Study Skills and TechniquesDeveloping good study habits will help make the most of your study time. 1 . Here are five top skills to help you study efficiently.Manage your timeTo make sure you have time for studying throughout your week, schedule study into your routine. 2 . In this way, you can give priority to studying and ensure that your time is productive.Take smart notes3 , taking notes is more than just a repetition of the things you are hearing or reading. You may not need to take notes on everything. Listening to things that the instructor says is important.Create a mind mapYou can use a mind map as a way of taking notes or to organize and summarize them. This will help you see the relationships between each one, and which ideas are more important.4After taking notes, repeat aloud what you have just studied. Then explain the concept in your own words. By lecturing yourself, you include hearing as well as seeing. Using your own voice and words helps make the information more meaningful to you.Ask questionsWhile you are reading or listening, write down any questions that come to mind and look for answers. If you find answers, make a note of them. If you find gaps in your knowledge without ready answers, take a little time to research and see if you can find the information. 5 .Now, start implementing these tips and see how your study change for the better.A．Join a lectureB．Lecture yourselfC．If you are going to form a good habit of taking notesD．Make a list of all the things you do each dayE．These will help you remember the things you have read or heardF．Whether you are listening to a lecture or reading a bookG．By developing good study habits, you will work more efficiently in the learning processHow to Increase the Quality of Y our LifeHave you reached a point where things are OK, but not very exciting? If so, then it is time to do something to increase the quality of your life.When you lead a dull life, it is great to think about something that takes you into another world. 6 If you love to read, devote time to just sitting with a book and losing yourself in an imaginary world.7 You will feel a sense of achievement that will boost your self-image. A great way is to join a class. Not only will you learn, but you will make new friends. Whether it’s learning a foreign language or playing a musical instrument, there will be a class near your home.Life-style experts are promoting the idea of taking a 30-day challenge. Motivate yourself to achieve something in 30 days. 8 You could commit to losing weight, or train to run a marathon—well, maybe a half-marathon!One of the best ways of creating positivity is to help others. You might offer to help in a shop or to do some gardening for an older person. Not only do you feel good about yourself, but others will benefit from your involvement. 9Life is full of hope and happiness. You are lucky to be alive. Make the most of the years you have on Earth, and don’t waste them being negative. 10 Be positive, and be happy. A．Unless you take the challenge.B．Hobbies provide you something different that you enjoy.C．Giving a hand to those in need is welcome in any society.D．Following the advice will help increase the quality of your life.E．Doing that will make you feel that you have something to offer the world.F．Once it has been completed, nothing can benefit you in the future than that.G．Learning a new skill is considered one of the most satisfying things you can do.In the journey of life, there’s an often ignored hero — labor. Yes, that’s right, good old-fashioned hard work. Whether it’s mowing lawns, babysitting, or washing dishes, the act of laboring not only fills pockets but also shapes characters and molds futures.Let’s face it, we live in a world where instant satisfaction is the norm (标准). But what if we told you that delaying that satisfaction and putting in some good, honest sweat can actually be beneficial? It’s true! 1112 Imagine a teenager tasked with mowing lawns for a summer job. Suddenly, they’re responsible for showing up on time, doing a thorough job, and managing their earnings. These are life skills that no classroom lecture can match.Moreover, labor breeds (培养) perseverance. 13 Instead of throwing in the towel, they persevere, learning from each setback and growing stronger in the process. This perseverance becomes a cornerstone (基石) for success in all aspects of life.But perhaps the most profound impact of labor is its ability to foster empathy and appreciation. 14 As teenagers serve meals to the less fortunate, they gain a newfound perspective on privilege and gratitude. Suddenly, that new smartphone doesn’t seem as important as lending a helping hand to those in need.In conclusion, labor isn’t just about earning a paycheck but it’s also about shaping character and building a foundation for success. So, the next time you see a teenager sweating it out on a hot summer day, remember — 15A．Labour is significantly beneficial to health.B．Take, for instance, volunteering at a local soup kitchen.C．labor isn’t just about earning money and training skills.D．First, labor gradually acquires a sense of responsibility.E．Imagine a young adult facing rejection after rejection while job hunting.F．they’re not just mowing lawns, they’re paving their path to a brighter future.G．The process of laboring teaches invaluable lessons that textbooks simply can’t convey.When you were at school, were you ever told to stop daydreaming and concentrate? It was easy for your mind to wander if you weren’t interested in what you were learning or if you had better things to think about. 16 But understanding how to do it, and knowing what isdistracting you, can help.Scientists have looked at what prevents us from maintaining focused and found a number of ways to help us stay in the zone. 17 Research by Science Focus magazine found silence is best for concentration. It also found turning off notifications on your phone, or switching it off altogether, removes a major distraction and helps us focus on the task at hand.Another possible cure for a short attention span is brain training. An article for BBC Future by Caroline Williams says that “Attention Researcher Nilli Lavie of University College London has found that making a task more visually demanding takes up more processing power and leaves the brain nothing left to process distractions.” 18There are more practical tips to keeping your mind focused. 19 It’s possible the movement in your mouth occupies parts of the brain that might otherwise get distracted.20 “If we were always so focused that we never got distracted, we’d miss potential changes, such as threats, in our environment. Distraction is vital for survival.”A．These include making a list of the tasks, finding a focused workspace, or chewing some gum! B．So, keeping your mind busy might be the answer.C．An effective way to improve concentration is to avoid silent environment.D．Staying focused can still be a challenge in adult life.E．But according to Science Focus magazine, distraction isn’t all bad.F．One of the most obvious things is eliminating noise.G．Therefore, we should always strive to eliminate distractions.参考答案：1．G 2．D 3．F 4．B 5．E【导语】本文是一篇说明文。
