ADifferent countries have different tipping customs. When you travel, you need to know how to tip in the country that you’re in; otherwise you’ll leave servers angry everywhere you go.Here are just a few guidelines to tipping around the world.BrazilThere will always be a standard 10% service charge added to your bill, and you won’t necessarily have to tip. If you do feel like being generous, an extra 5-10% will really make your server very happy. Just remember to do this as skillfully as possible—Brazilians don’t make a big show of this.DubaiIn Dubai it’s a rule for restaurants to charge 10% tip on all restaurant and bar bills. You can add a couple of dirhams〔迪拉姆,货币单位〕to this if you feel like it. Waiters are not paid very much in Dubai, so it is always very appreciated.GermanyGerman bars and restaurants will include the tip as part of what you owe, but that’s not all you have to pay. It is a custom to round the bi ll up after that, usually to the euro. This can be anywhere from 5-10%. When it’s time to settle up, you won’t get a bill: your waiter tells you the total and then you tell them how much you want to pay, including your “tip〞, and hand over the money.Czech RepublicWhile locals in the Czech Republic don’t leave tips, that doesn’t mean you’re off the hook.Foreign tourists are definitely expected to leave some kind of tip for service—as long as you’re in a high tourist traffic area,like Prague for instance. The standard tip is 10%.IndiaIf you like the service, go ahead and tip your server 5-10%. You have to adjust that amount though, based on how big the meal you’re eating is. If the bill is for a small meal, and totals less than 300 rupees, tip the full 10%. If the bill is higher, tip towards the 5%.1. In which country do customers have to tip at least 10% for the service?A. DubaiB. IndiaC. GermanyD. Czech Republic2. Which country has different tip cultures between citizens and foreigners?A. DubaiB. GermanyC. IndiaD. Czech Republic3. If your bill is 2000 rupees in India, it is proper for you to tip________ rupees.A. 10B. 80C. 120D. 200【答案(dá àn)】1. A 2. D 3.

AMany college students choose to study abroad to get life experience and, more importantly, competitive competence for their future career and life. Considering the high tuition rates in universities in the UK and US, many students nowadays are choosing less common destinations to fulfill their overseas study dreams. These countries have their own unique appeal.New ZealandSmall though it may be, New Zealand offers quality higher education opportunities, with about 55percent of its higher education institutes within the top 500 of QS World University Rankings 2019.The highlight of New Zealand’s universities is their ability to provide a high end and student -tailored education for pupils. Though it attracts mainly wealthy students, higher education in New Zealand is also affordable for many common Chinese families. It is where you get a British -based education with the tuition being some of the lowest in the world.ItalyHeart of the Roman Empire and birthplace of the Renaissance, Italy is attractive to Chinese students for its artistic and historic marvels.Similar to Germany, where publicly funded universities offer free undergraduate education, some publicly funded Italian universities offer tuition -free education for international students depending on thelevel of degree desired. Italy is the 4th most popular study abroad destination in Europe. Each year, over 4,000 Chinese students further their studies at publicly funded Italian universities.CanadaThough Chinese students form the largest international student group in Canada, the country only ranks 4th on Chinese students’ most desirable overseas destinations list.However, the situation may begin to change as Canada and China agreed on new visa policy in early March. Under the policy travel visas are issued with lengths of up to 10 years, which benefits Chinese parents whose children are studying in Canada. Another advantage of studying in Canada, according to anofficial in the Canadian Embassy to China, is that students can get a three -year working visa right after graduation.21. What is the best part of New Zealand universities? A. They offer British -based education. B. They are the best universities in the world.C. They provide the highest quality education opportunities.D. They provide education specially designed for students. 22. What do we know about Italian universities?此卷只装订不密封班级 姓名 准考证号 考场号 座位号A. They are modeled after Germany in funding.B. They sponsor all foreign students throughout the college time.C. They offer free undergraduate education in some publicly funded universities.D. They make Italy the 4th most popular study abroad destinations in the world.23. What do the universities in the three countries have in common?A. They relatively don’t need high expenses.B. They offer working visa after graduation.C. They have convenient application process.D. They are famous for historical and artistic reasons.BMy students were taking midterms when my phone erupted with urgent messages. “A student is having a panic attack,” texted a teaching assistant. I ran out of my office, down a flight of stairs and found the student — a pupil in my 350-person organic chemistry class — lying motionless on the ground outside the exam hall. “Did my exam really trigger a panic attack?” I asked myself. “Why am I not prepared to deal with a situation like this?”It was my first time teaching the course. But I knew that the subject was challenging for my students. This was a source of stress for premedical students in particular, who feared that a low grade in organic chemistry would keep them from getting into medical school.The following day, I was scheduled to lecture to the same class. I knew that I had to address what had happened during the midterm. So, I started by saying: “I want to take some time today to talk about something important. How many of you think that this is a weed-out course?” Half of my students raised their hands carefully. “I’m sorry to hear that,” I continued. “I want you all to know that I do not consider any of you to be weeds; you all deserve to be here.”I flashed a slide of flowers in various shapes. I smiled at my students and said: “I think of you as flowers — different flowers with different needs. You may not bloom at the same time, but you will bloom! You may not do well in the midterm exam, but you will learn from your mistakes and do better in the final exam. I believe this. I believe in you.”From that point on, my office hours were packed. Some asked about lecture topics and study strategies; others opened up about personal issues. I was amazed that a simple, frank discussion in lecture could make such a difference.24. What made the pupil have a panic attack?A. Hiding personal issues.B. The stress for high grades.C. Lacking study strategies.D. Failing to handle the situation.25. What does the underlined word “trigger” in Paragraph 1 most probably mean?A. Cure.B. Prevent.C. Frighten.D. Cause.26. Why did the author go to the same class the next day?A. To give the lesson according to the arrangement.B. To apologize and explain to the panicked student.C. To give a speech on what happened in the test.D. To persuade all the students to stay in the class.27. Which paragraph mainly shows the author’s encouragement to students?A. Paragraph 2.B. Paragraph 3.C. Paragraph 4.D. Paragraph 5.CA roadside system that detects if a mobile phone is in use in a passing vehicle is being tested in the UK first. Despite being unable to tell whether the driver is using the phone, it is hoped that it will act as a warning to people who make calls behind the wheel. The technology picks up the phone signal in the vehicle and activates a roadside warning sign of a mobile phone with a red line through it.The system cannot tell the difference between a driver and a passenger on a bus, but to some degree it can warn drivers that they can be detected using their phones. Using a directional antenna(天线), thedetector picks up radio waves produced by a phone handset, and measures the signal strength and length of them. When a signal is detected of duration(持续时间) long enough and signal strength strong enough to set off the system, the detector activates the warning sign. The detector is able to distinguish Bluetooth connections or hands-free devices which, when picked up, will prevent the activation.While this new system is no replacement for a police officer catching someone in the act, it could be enough to make some drivers think twice and that has to be a positive step forward. However, just as technology has enabled the problem of drivers using mobile phones illegally, it can also be a big part of the solution in getting people to stop. Statistics from the devices will be shared with Norfolk Police, the county council said. The council said that enabling the system to record specific number plates could be a “future development”.Using a mobile phone at the wheel is one of the four road crimes which can have horrible consequences if it causes a deadly or serious car crash. Law enforcement(执行) technology has been falling behind for a decade and not made any easier by motor producers that encourage users to plug in their phones even before driving.28. Why is the roadside system used according to Paragraph 1?A. To send out cellphone signals to drivers.B. To detect drivers’ illegal use of cellphone.C. To monitor people’s use of phones while driving.D. To warm people against using pones while driving.29. How does the detector of the roadside system work?A. It measures the length of the phone.B. It warns drivers with a phone in hand.C. It picks up radio waves from handsets.D. It activates the vehicle’s Bluetooth system.30. What does the text suggest drivers do with the road warning sign?A. Swift to Bluetooth while driving.B. Have a close watch of road signs.C. Avoid being picked up by detectors.D. Stop using a hands-free mobile phone.31. What will the county council probably do in the future?A. Share the devices with the police.B. Make the system more advanced.C. Replace the police with the new system.D. Take steps to settle road safety problems.DMy first week in the United States was a cultural shock. Everything felt new to me, including the style of conversation, the community I lived in and even the type of food people ate.In our community back home, people eat mutton and chicken. Pork and beef are also common among other communities, but eating beef is taken as an illegal act. Unlike Nepal, eating beef is common in the West where most of the people follow religions other than Hinduism.Food is just an example. When people move from one part of the world to another, they should adapt(适应) themselves to the new culture. For example, going to the bars or getting drunk is not acceptable in my community, but it is common in the US after a certain age.I was raised in a traditional Hindu family in Nepal. We have a conservative(保守的) opinion towards marriage. Arranged marriages(包办婚姻) are common in which families decide whether the two should get married. Free love marriages are not allowed and are seldom seen. Same-sex marriage is also considered impossible.To me, culture is a matter of habit. The culture is so deep-rooted in people’s minds that most people are against changes. It is always easy for them to do what they have been doing throughout their life. It maybe difficult for anyone to adapt to a new culture.However, with travel being an unavoidable thing for modern people, one always comes across different cultures. In such cases, one should be respectful and adaptive to the culture other people follow. The world is always a better place to live in when we have spaces for people of all cultures.32. What does the Nepal law forbid people to eat?A. Pork.B. Beef.C. Chicken.D. Mutton.33. What can we learn from the passage?A. Most westerners believe in Hinduism.B. Getting drunk in Nepal is acceptable.C. Anyone can enter the bars in the US.D. The writer came across a cultural shock.34. Which may be seen most in Nepal?A. Open marriages.B. Free love marriages.C. Same-sex marriage.D. Arranged marriages.35. What is the writer’s attitude to different cultures?A. Negative.B. Respectful.C. Conservative.D. Indifferent.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

ADo you want a bit of an adventure? Would you like to discover all the corners of the UK, or travel abroad? Maybe you have never tried the motorhome lifestyle before. Well, read this article and you will know why a motorhome is a good choice.Nothing is better than a motorhome. It has so many uses that it is considered the most versatile vehicle and it is also very fortable. If you are thinkingabout hiring a motorhome this summer, then the best choice is to book it early, especially if you are considering the school holidays. The motorhome hire service is very seasonal and motorhome hire panies will never have extra vehicles available in the summer months.There are a lot of panies throughout the UK, and some of the big ones have motorhomes spread all over the country. At present, the largest network for motorhome hire is provided by Motorhome which is based in Cambridge. If you are in the UK, you may phone 0800612-8719 for details of its motorhome hire information. Motorhome has a network of over 500 vehicles all over England, Scotland and Wales.Most people wishing to hire a motorhome are families that are looking for an alternative to a European package holiday, especially as flying now has bee more expensive, and is considered to be environmentally unfriendly. There is no doubt that the idea of no-fly holidays is going to bee more popular as fewer people think it is safe to fly. This explains why more and more people are choosing to hire a motorhome for their holidays.21. The main purpose of this text is to explain why it is a good idea to _________.A. take an adventureB. travel to EnglandC. try a new lifestyleD. hire a motorhome22. What does the underlined word “versatile” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Fast.B. Safe.C. Useful.D. Exciting.23. Why should you book a motorhome early if you want to book one for this summer?A. Booking early is much cheaper.B. Summer is usually a very busy season.C. You can arrange your time better this way.D. Students usually book them to earn money.24. The last paragraph tells us the advantages of hiring a motorhome by _________.A. telling us a storyB. giving detailed dataC. paring it with flyingD. showing the results of a studyBThe other day I was watching Sportscenter when one of those “hu man interest”stories came on and really caught my attention.The hero was about a 27-year-old professional Bass Fisherman named Clay Dyer. At first, they played it off as another guy trying to make the cut on the Bassmaster tour until they showed a picture of him. No legs, no arm, or rathe r, he has only 1/3 of his right arm. That’s all that he has.It was such an amazing story that I was wondering what this guy could do. Growing up, he learned to play baseball and basketball, but found that fishing was his true calling. And he does it all on his own. He holds the fishing pole under his chin and uses that and his stub (残端) arm to cast and reel in the fish. He uses his teeth to help him unhook fish. He ties his own hooks on with his mouth, never really asking anyone else to help. Clay Dyer even knows how to swim. Since his body can’t produce enough sweat on its own, he has to take a dip in the lake every few hours to keep cool. He dives in just like anyone else, then somehow treads water (踩水) with his stub arm, then, with a little help, pulls himself back up into the boat and goes on fishing.Clay Dyer has never looked for others’ pity, nor has he allowed his physical disabilities to prevent him from being a professional fisherman. His motto for life is “If I can, you can.” He refuses to use spe cial equipment, saying, “I want to do it with one hand the way they do it with two.”25. Why did the author bee interested in Clay Dyer?A. He assumed Dyer was living happily.B. He thought that Dyer could do nothing.C. He took great pity on this disabled man.D. He wanted to know what Dyer could do.26. We learn from the last paragraph that _________.A. it seems easy for Clay Dyer to go fishingB. Dyer aims to behave like a normal personC. special equipment is allowed when fishingD. physical disabilities destroy his faith in life27. Which word best describes Clay Dyer’s personality?A. Diligent.B. Faithful.C. Inspiring.D. Stubborn.28. The text is intended to _________.A. persuade readers to watch SportscenterB. share Clay Dyer’s life story with readersC. call on readers to care for the disabled manD. express the author’s admiration for Clay DyerCMany people rush into the mitment of bringing home a four-legged family member, only to find out that they are not ready for a pet. This often results in the dog being turned over to a shelter where it may not find another home. This can be avoided if potential pet owners take the time to figure out if they are truly ready for the responsibilities of pet ownership.Being a responsible pet owner involves a financial mitment that goes beyond buying dog food. There are also parasite (寄生虫) prevention, boarding costs while traveling and the cost to care for the pet should it bee ill or injured. That is not to say that one must be rich in order to have a dog, but it is important to be prepared for the expenses that e with being a pet owner.Another consideration is the time mitment. An owner away from home for 14 hours every day is not an ideal situation for a dog. A potential dog owner must also consider the time it takes to care for his or her pet, the time it takes to feed, walk, play with, bathe and clean up. Also, dogs require attention. Be prepared to spend time each day petting and playing with it.Dogs are dogs, and will act like dogs. This includes barking, digging, having accidents in the house and, possibly, destroying some of the owner’s prized possessions, such as furniture, shoes and cell phones. If the above would cause an owner to want to get rid of the dog, then he or she is not yet ready to be a pet owner. Many wonderful pets end up in shelters simply because they acted like dogs!29. Who might be qualified to be a dog owner, according to the text?A. Kari, a teacher who works eight hours a day.B. Jim, who has a daughter sensitive to dog’s smell.C. Dick, a jobless teenager who can hardly pay his rent.D. Steven, a business man who travels a lot on business.30. To be a responsible dog owner you need to do all the following EXCEPT _________.A. buying dog food and feeding itB. taking it to hospital when necessaryC. spending time each day playing with itD. finding a shelter for it when you are bored with it31. What does the underlined part in the first paragraph probably mean?A. Rush to adopt a dog formally.B. mit to buy a dog and take it home.C. Run into a pet shelter and take one home so quickly.D. Decide to be a pet owner without thinking about it carefully.32. What might be the best title for the text?A. Dogs Are DogsB. Ready for a Pet?C. Have Time for a Dog?D. Pets Are Family MembersDMake a long story short for your chance to be published in Reader’s Digest and win $25,000. Here are a few of our favorite entries so far in our “Your life: The Reader’s Digest Version” contest. After reading these, head over to Facebook and submit your own story about a special momentor lesson that shaped your life.“There’s Always a John”By Darla BoydMy first year of teaching, there was a kid named John in my class. John was difficult to control and he nearly drove me crazy. While talking about him one day, an old teacher put his hand on my shoulder and said, “There will always be a John. Your job is to learn to discover what makes him different and help him succeed.” The next year, there was indeed another John. But that advice taught me that there is something to appreciate in everyone.“An Early Key Lesson”By Elaine WestBefore I began my first teaching job, my mother, a teacher of 30 years, gave me a very special gift, five simple words that have had an effect on my entire life. “Make friends with the janitor (门卫).” Her wisdom taught me the respect for all types of characters and continues to enrich my life to this day. Just five little words but what an impact they can have when you take them to heart.“Raising Mommy”By Jan DavisBeing a mother can always present challenges and rewards. Someone told me early that children will teach you everything you need to know. Being a mother is being raised. Our children bee our advisers. Their dreams bee our professors, as we are taking notes carefully. The sounds of their laughter and smiles are a great reward to us. Their tears remind us that it is okey to fail, and that we should wipe the tears away and try again.33. What did Elaine West’s mother advise her to do?A. Take care of janitors.B. Don’t treat students differently.C. Don’t judge people by appearance.D. Respect people from different backgrounds.34. From the last paragraph, we can infer that _________.A. a mother should be given more careB. a mother improves herself greatly in parentingC. being a mother has more challenges than rewardsD. children should realize the dreams of their parents35. The text is most probably a(n) _________.A. notice inviting contributionsB. introduction to a contestC. ad for three new booksD. poster about a lecture第二节(共5小题;每小题2分, 满分10分)根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Even the sheltered workshop where my oldest son worked had been closed until furl her notice. People had made a run on the stores and large areas of the shelves were l»re. ()n the news the numbers of sick and dead continued to rise. It felt like there was a weight on the souls of everyone in the world.My own family was staying at home as much as possible and as I looked out my window I wondered how long this crisis would last. It was then, however. that I saw something that lifted that weight off of my soul, made my face smile, and made my heart feel happy again. On the street below my house there was an old friend of mine from high school who was a teacher there now. With him was my younger son sformer aide from the high school as well. They were delivering the school lunches door to door to the hungry children who were stuck al home. Watching them made me think of something everyone's childhood television neighbor. Mr. Roger's once said:**In the bad times, always look for the helpers. ”I have no doubt this crisis will pass as all the crisis before it have. But it is our choice on whether it brings out the best in us or the worst in us. Let it bring out the best in you. Use it to strengthen your faith. Use it to free yourself from (car. Use it to grow kinder* more giving* and more loving. Become a helper to all those in need and you will be a happy person today and in all the days to come.17.How did people feel in face of the epidemic?A. Disappointed.B. Confident.C. Tense.D. Doubtful.18.What made the author happy?A.Seeing 淘mcone delivering lunches from door to doorB.Staying together with his families in time of dangerC.Seeing a childhood television in time of dangerD.Standing by the window and look out into the street19.What Mr. Roger said actually means.A.in bad times we should watch mon* TV programsB.school lunches arc not easy to forget for many peopleC.we should prepare more lunches for school childrenD.people look forward to helping hands in bad times20.What is the purpose of the text?A.To express his expectation to end the epidemic soonB.To encourage people to bring out their best in had timesC.To show that he is ready to help others in time of dangerD.To explain why wc should have strong faith in ourselvesCWhen a child is choking, it means that an object is stuck in the trachca. When this happens, air can't flow normally into or out of the lungs, so the child can t breathe properly.The trachea is usually protected by epiglottis (喉头盖).It allows food to pass down and go into our stomach and it also prevents food from going down the trachea. But every once in a while, the epiglottis doesn't close fast enough and an olqcct can slip into the trachea. This is what happens when some! hi ng "goes down the wrong pipe. ”Most of the time, the food or object only partially blocks the t rachca• is coughed up, and breathing returns to normal quickly. Kids who seem to be choking and coughing but still can breathe and talk usually recover without help. It can be uncomfortable for them, but they're generally fine after a few seconds.Sometimes, an object can get into the trachca and completely block the airway. If airflow into and out of the lungs is blocked and the brain will become short of oxygen, choking can become a lik-threatening emergency. A child may be choking and need help right away if he or she can t breathe• or can t talk or make noise.If you have kids, it s important to get trained in both CPR(心肺夏苏)and the technique of alxlominal thrusts (腹部施压)・Even if you don't have kids* knowing how to perform these first-aid procedures will let you help if someone is choking.All kids arc at risk for choking, but those younger than 3 arc especially at risk. Young kids tend to put things in their mouths, have smaller airways that arc easily blocked. and don't have a lot of experience chewing, so they might swallow things whole.Take the time now to become prepared CPR and first-aid courses arc a must for parent other caregivers, and babysitters. To find one in your area. contact your local American Red Cross. YMCA, or American Hcart Association chapicr. or check with hospitals and healthdepartments in your community.28.When docs choking take place?A.An object gets down into the trachea.B.An object gets down into the stomach.C.Children cat too much food.D.An object chokes the trachea partly.29.A child will need first aid when __________ .A. he or she doesn't feel comfortableB. he or she is short of foodC.the child cannot breatheD. the child coughs badly30.

How choking takes place.C. When to offer first aid.D・ The necessity of learning first aid.1)Micro plastics are tiny bits of plastic* often too small to be seen. Plastic doesn't **decompose w like natural materials. Instead, it just breaks into smaller and smaller pieces. No one knows exactly how much plastic is in the oceans. Since the sea is so large and so deep, it s hard to get a good idea of how much plastic it contains. But in recent years, scientists have made greater efforts to get a more accurate idea.Some studies have suggested that since 1950. about 17 million metric tons(公吨)of plastic have entered the Atlantic Ocean. Scientists believe that the plastic previously found on beaches and on the surface of the water is only about 1% of all the plastic in the oceans. Researchers from the United Kingdom (UK) want al to find out where the ot her 99% was.For two months in 2016・the researchers took samples at 12 different locations in the Atlantic Ocean* from the UK to South America. They collect txl water samples from three different depths in the top 200 meters. By running the water through special fllters(过滤器),they were able to collect the micro pl astics, which they could view and study with a microscope.Based on their mcasurment s. the researchers learned that just the top 200 meters of the Atlantic Ocean holds between 12 and 21 million metric tons of plastics. But the Atlantic Ocean is very deep, and the scientists only checked the top 200 meters. They say that if microplastics are spread through the rest of the Atlantic like they were in the top 200 meters, thin there arc probably about 200 million metric tons of microplastics in the Atlantic Ocean.Though the scientists only studied the Atlantic ocean* the results suggest that there may be far more tnicroplastic in all oceans than we realized. The problems go far beyond ocean pollution. Microplastic particles have been found just alx)ut everywhere around the world • from Antarctica to the lx)ttom of the sea.Scientijits predict that the amount of plastic entering our oceans is likely to triplet 成三ff?) over the next 20 yvars. Having a good idea of how much plastic is already then* might be a good first step to fighting the problem.32.What docs the underlined word "decompose w in Paragraph 1 mean?A. turn upB. break downC. give offD. bring out33.What is the latest idea about the plastic in the seas?A.Previous data of plastic consists of only a very small part.B.There is only 17 million metric ton^ of plastic on the earth.C.The amount of plastic in the seas is on the decrease in recent years.D.The amount of plastic in the seas is increasing by 1 % yearly.34.What is the author s attitude according to the text?A. Pessimistic.B. Confident.C. Objective.D. Conserved.35.Wliat dot's the author expect to lake place?A.More pollutants will turn out in the future.B.Measures will be taken to deal with plastic.C.The oceans will be cleaned in the future.D.More people will be aware of plastic pollution. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分.满分12.5分)阅读下面短文.从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中冇两项为多余选项.Crows arc not the most beautiful bird.

Knights, scholars and the highwayman (拦路匪徒〕or thieves, who had been infamous for their clever robberies, passed by each other.Here, also, were noblemen dressed in gold, from Italy and Spain and France; slaves from Spanish America, sea captains and ministers, soldiers and servants—all held by chances or interests within the gray walls which circled London, and whose gates gave welcome to as strange a crowd as could be found in the world.Into this curious crowd came Shakespeare, quick to see and eager to learn. And before long all these strange sights were as familiar to him as the faces of his own town’s residents. Each one told its story to him so plainly that, as before he had learned the secrets of the fields and woods, so now he learned men an d men’s interests that make up the great world.And he learned these lessons so well that when he came to write his plays, he made such use of them as no writer ever made before or since; for it is the use of this knowledge of the world, combined with his own genius, that makes Shakespeare the greatest dramatist that has ever lived.24. What was London like in Shakespeare’s eyes when he first went there?A. Dirty and small.B. Strange and interesting.C. Infamous and terrible.D. Familiar and modern.25. Which of the following best describes Shakespeare?A. Shakespeare got inspiration to write from his hometown, London.B. Shakespeare was eager to make friends with the noblemen in London.C. Shakespeare was good at observing and learning from the daily life.D. Shakespeare became the greatest dramatist owing to his own genius.26. What does the word “one〞 in paragraph 5 refer to?A. Crowd.B. Resident.C. Face.D. Sight.27. The passage probably comes from______.A. a posterB. a textbookC. an advertisementD. an announcementCStanding desks have become common across Silicon Valley, offering health benefits to those willing to work on their feet. However, due to their high price, they have failed to catch on until now. Recently, Ikea has brought out Bekant convertible〔可变换的〕standing desk that can become a normal desk at the touch of a button. The $500 adjustable desk can transform from a standard desk to a standing one, and Ikea hopes it could make the standing desk mainstream.Experts say that changing from a seated to a standing desk can improve productivity. Similar desks have become a common sight at tech firms such as Google, where some employees have even installed treadmill (跑步机) and bicycle desks.Th e desk is not the first “convertible〞 on the market. As early as 2021, Stir Kinect brought out an adjustable desk. The $3,890 Stir Kinect desk has a motor to raise and lower itself, changing it into a standing desk or a traditional desk. The desk can even be programmed to move up and down slightly, making it appear to take a gentle breath to remind the user to change their positions. To move between sitting and standing positions, owners simply double tap on the screen. The desk can learn the user’s prefere nces overtime and suggest the best seating position.The Stir Kinect desk was created by a team of ex-Apple and Disney engineers. It has a built-in touch screen to control and track movement, and can tell users exactly how many calories they burn by standing during their working day. It also has devices containing power points and USB ports for charging phones, to keep cables hidden.“ Ikea’s height-adjustable desk is great for opening up the lower end of the market, ’’ said JP Labrosse, founder and CEO of Stir.28. What is the text mainly about?A. Ikea has brought out an adjustable standing desk.B. Silicon Valley offered health benefits to officials.C. Google formed their tech firms to design bicycle desks.D. The Stir Kinect desk will become mainstream in the market.29. Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?A. Before Bekant desk, similar adjustable desks have been widely used.B. The seated desks will take the place of the standing desks in the future.C. Compared to the Stir Kinect desk, the Bekant desk is much cheaper.D. The adjustable desks were designed by the Apple and Disney Company.30. The Stir Kinect desk______.A. can breathe in and breathe out by pressing the button onceB. can charge phones by using a device containing power pointC. can tell you how many calories you need for a walkD. can advise you to do more exercise at a proper time31. What can we infer from the last sentence given by JP Labrosse?A. Ikea’s adjustable desk will be popular with average people.B. Ikea will have to sell furniture at a lower price in the future.C. This height adjustable table can only be found in Ikea.D. It is not necessary for Ikea to open up the market at all.DAirbags, now found in almost every vehicle, have saved countless lives and largely reduced the severity of injuries in crashes. Similar technology could greatly reduce brokenhips (髋部) resulting from a fall, something most seniors fear.Dr. Robert Buckman and his start-up company, Active Protective in Allentown, Pennsylvania, has developed a promising solution, a wearable airbag that can protect hipbones in the event of a fall. The idea was the result of Dr. Buckman’s years as a doctor atTemple University. He noticed how many elderly people were being brought intohospitals with broken hip due to falls, and how they often never completely recoveredfrom the injuries. He started to ask what he could do for these people, and that was whenhe started trying to figure out whether there was a way of helping people who were at thehighest risk of falling and suffering these kinds of injuries.The device is worn much like a regular belt, but on the outside of the clothing, and it includes sensors that monitor the movement of hips. If the device detects that the person,is falling, an airbag opens before the person hits the ground, cushioning the fall. When thewearer hits the ground, the bag reduces the force to the hip bones by 90 percent, enough toavoid the majority of hip injuries.With one out of every three people aged 65 and older suffering serious falls each year, Active Protective has a big market for its wearable device. It also has the potential tosizably reduce hip - related health care expenses: Hip injuries among the elderly cost theUS health care system in 2021 $30 billion, which doesn’t include the long-term careexpenses associated with the high percentage of patients that can no longer liveindependently.32. What is the purpose of the Active Protective’s airbag?A. To avoid hip injuries among seniors.B. To protect seniors from car accidents.C. To help seniors with their daily nursing.第 3 页D. To help doctors deal with serious injuries.33. What inspired Dr. Robert Buckman to make the device?A. A report on seniors’ health.B. A serious fall he experienced.C. His work experiences as a doctor.D. Suggestions of seniors at Temple University.34. How does the device mainly work?A. By predicting road conditions.B. By speeding up bone recovery.C. By reducing the effects of falling.D. By preventing people from failing.35. What does the author think of the Active Protective’s airbag?A. It still needs improving.B. It has a promising future.C. It may encourage seniors to do exercise.D. It may increase America’s spend on seniors.第二节〔共 5 小题,每题 2 分,总分值 10 分〕根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最正确选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

Some 120 people applied and took the exam. Applicants were required to show proof of a college degree at least.Mei Jing beat everyone in the test and the interview. When a follow-up check was done, however, her education certificate(证书) was discovered to be an unreal one.This was a bit of an embarrassment for the employers. A dilemma, one might say. If she were hired because of her excellent performance, she still wouldn't have the qualifications on paper. But, if she were dropped because she didn't meet the education requirements, they would lose a good worker. Tough problem!While Mei's future hangs in the balance, the public having learned of the case got involved. Some people said the Bureau should employ her, since results are the only important thing. “After all, ability is more important than a diploma, ”said one office worker.Others, however, have attacked Mei's dishonesty. They said that morality was, after all, more important than talent, especially in the case of a government position. Mei wasn't honest, so she shouldn't be hired.But, Shen Ronghua, the head of the Shanghai Public Administration and Human Resources Institute, tries to be a bit more philosophical.“There is still a sort of'diploma means this' prejudice among people,”Shen explains, “Many employers regard a diploma as the only sign of ability and talent.”So, with this in mind, people may pay little attention to whether someone has real ability or not. They turn to chasing a diploma instead. The unreal diploma is the natural product of this thought. The conclusion? "China needs a new human resource system. The new system will not define a person only by his or her diploma, " Shen says.36.What's the meaning of the underlined word “dilemma” in Paragraph Four?A. A problem easy to deal with or solve.B. A situation in which it is difficult for you to make the decision.C. A difference in two or more statements, ideas, or stories.D. Something said or done that is funny.37.What can we infer from this news report?A. The Civil Administration Bureau of Wuhan employed the girl.B. The girl was not employed because of dishonesty.C. It remained to be seen whether the girl was to be employed or not.D. Another Human Resource Institute employed the girl.38.What does Shen Ronghua mean by saying “diploma means this”?A. A diploma can tell whether a person is honest or not.B. A diploma is the only sign of ability and talent.C. A diploma is what you get after you finish a course.D. A diploma means a job.39.Which of the following do you think is the best title of this news report?A. A Girl's Unlucky Experience.B. Unreal Diploma.C. Dishonesty Has Been Attacked.D. Can A Diploma Be All There Is.In bringing up children, every parent watches eagerly the child’s acquisition(学会) of each new skill---the first spoken words, the first independent steps, or the beginning of reading and writing. It is usual that parents hurry the child beyond his natural learning rate, but this can set up dangerous feelings of failure and states of worry in the child. This might happen at any stage. A baby might be forced to use a toilet too early, and a young child might be encouraged to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads. On the other hand, though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning opportunities, he loses his natural enthusiasm for life and his desire to find out new things for himself.Parents vary greatly in their degree of strictness towards their children. Some may be especially strict in money matters, other are severe over time of ing home at night or punctuality (准时) for meals. In general, the controls imposed (强加的) represent the needs of the parents and the values of the munity as much as the child’s own happiness.As regards the development of moral standards in the growing child, consistency is very important in parent teaching. To forbid a thing one day and excuse it the next is not foundation for morality. Also, parents should realize that “example is better than precept”. If they are not sincere and do not practise what they preach (说教), their children may grow confused, and emotionally insecure when they grow old enough to think for themselves, and realize they have been to some extent fooled.A sudden awareness of a marked difference between their parents’ principles and their morals can be a dangerous disappointment.40.Eagerly watching the child’s acquisition of new skills ________.A. should be avoidedB. is universal among parentsC. sets up dangerous states of worry in the childD. will make him lose interest in learning new things41.When children are learning new skills, parents should _________.A. encourage them to read before they know the meaning of the words they readB. not expect too much of themC. achieve a balance between pushing them too hard and leaving them on their ownD. create as many learning opportunities as possible42.The second paragraph mainly tells us_________.A. parents should be strict with their childrenB. parents controls satisfy only the needs of the parents and the values of the munityC. parental restrictions vary, and are not always enforced for the benefit of the children aloneD. parents vary in their strictness towards their children according to the situation43.In moral matters, parents should _________.A. observe the rules themselvesB. be aware of the marked difference between adults and childrenC. forbid things which have no foundation in moralityD. satisfy their children’s needsEver since news of widespread food recalls caused by a carcinogenic dye(颜料)broke, there has been confusion over possible links to the country of the same name, but Sudan officials say there is no connection whatever.Sudan 1 is a red industrial dye that has been found in some chilli powder, but was banned in food products across the European Union (EU) in July xx.Since the ban was put in place, EU officials have been striving to remove some food products from the shelves. So far 580 products have been recalled.Last week Sudan’s Embassy in the United Kingdom asked the Food Sta ndards Agency (FSA) for clarification of the origin of the dye’s name.Omaima Mahmoud Al Sharief, a press official at Sudan’s Embassy in China, explained the purpose of the inquiry was to clear up any misunderstanding over links between the country and the poisonous dye."We want to keep an eye on every detail and avoid any misunderstanding there," she said. "Our embassy to Britain asked them how the dye got that name and whether the dye had something to do with our country. But they told us there was no relationship."The FSA, an independent food security watchdog in Britain, received a letter from the Sudanese embassy last week."They asked us why the dye is named Sudan, however, we also do not know how it got the name," she said. "People found the dye in 1883 and gave it the name. Nobody knows the reason, and we cannot give any explanation before we find out."Sudan dyes, which include Sudan 1 to 4, are red dyes used for colouring solvents(溶剂), oils, waxes, petrol, and shoe and floor polishes. They are classified as carcinogens by the International Agency for Research on Cancer.44.What does the underlined word mean in paragraph one?A. Causing cancer.B. Having side effect.C. Containing poison.D. Poisonous. 45.How did the Sudan 1 get its name?A. The dye is often produced in Sudan.B. The dye has something to do with the country named Sudan.C. Nobody is sure of the origin of the name.D. Many foods produced in Sudan contain the dye.46.We can infer from the passage that .A. the Sudan government is paying much attention to the food safetyB. Sudan 1 is often used to be added to the foodC. people didn’t realize the danger of Sudan 1 until xxD. many food shops will be closed down47.Which of the following is the best title?A. Keep away from Sudan 1B. No Sudan 1 dye links to the countryC. How Sudan 1 dye got its name?D. Pay attention to the food safetyLong bus rides are like television shows. They have a beginning, a middle, and an end with mercials thrown in every three or four minutes. The mercials are unavoidable. They happen whether you want them or not. Every couple of minutes a billboard glides by outside the bus window. "Buy Super Clean Toothpaste.” Drink Good Wet Root Beer.” Fill up with Pacific Gas.” Only if you sleep, which is equal to turning the television set off, are you spared the unending cry of "You Need It! Buy It Now!"The beginning of the ride is fortable and somewhat exciting, even if you’ve traveled that way before. Usually some things have changed new houses, new buildings, sometimes even a new road. The bus driver has a style of driving and it’s fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so. If the driver is particularly reckless (鲁莽的)or daring, the ride can be as thrilling (惊心动魄的)as a suspense story. Will the driver pass the truck in time? Will the driver move into the right or the left hand lane? After a while, of course, the excitement dies down. Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of the ride. Food always makes bus rides more interesting. But you’ve got to be careful of what kind of food you eat.

ALack of sleep among children and teenagers in China has worsened in the past decade, with more than 80 percent getting insufficient sleep on school days, a new report has found.Chinese youngsters snooze 7. 8 hours a night on average on school days, down 0. 3 hours from 2009, according to the report released on Monday by the Chinese Academy of Sciences' Institute of Psychology.Researchers surveyed more than 15,800 students from Henan, Hebei and Guangdong provinces from April to July, asking what time they go to bed and wake up on days they take offline classes on campus.Only 46. 4 percent of them sleep for at least 8 hours, compared with 47. 4 percent in 2009.According to an action plan laying out measures to be taken from 2019 to 2030 to promote the health of citizens, primary school students are recommended to get a minimum of 10 hours of sleep a night. For junior high school and senior high school students, the recommended sleep durations per night are 9 and 8 hours respectively.By this set of standards, more than 95 percent of students from primary schools, nearly 91 percent at junior high and 84 percent at senior high, did not get enough sleep on school days, heightening the risk of them developing cognitive, mental and physical health problems, the report said.Hou Jinqin, a researcher at the National Institute of Education Sciences who co-authored the study, suggested local authorities implement measures instructed by the Ministry of Education, such as lesseningacademic burdens, postponing start times at school and encouraging children to be enrolled at institutions closer to home, in order to prolong sleeping hours.In terms of the COVID - 19 outbreak's impact on sleep, she said available research overseas shows school closures forced by the COVID - 19 epidemic have added two hours of sleep to young students studying-gat home.In China, some studies have revealed no marked differences in sleeping patterns of students before and after school reopened, she added.1.What does the underlined word "insufficient" in Paragraph 1 mean?A.Unconditional. B.Inadequate.C.Untypical. D.Incalculable.2.How many hours of sleep are recommended for pupils?A.7 -8. B.8 -9. C.≥ 9.D.≥ 10.3.Which of the following may Hou Jinqin agree with?A.Reducing their course load. B.Starting school a bit earlier.C.Attending extra — curricular courses. D.Promoting a new sleeping pattern.4.What is the main purpose of the passage?A.To introduce a new study on sleep habits.B.To advise people to lengthen their sleeping hours.C.To analyse the reasons why youngsters lack sleep.D.To propose measures to handle student sleep shortfall.BVideo calls are a common occurrence, but have you imagined being able to touch the person on the other end of the line? Scientists are making this a reality.Researchers at the University of New South Wales, Australia, have invented a soft skin stretch device (SSD), a haptic device that can recreate the sense of touch. Haptic technology can mimic the experience of touch by stimulating localized areas of the skin in ways that are similar to what is felt in the real world, through force, vibration or motion.Vibration is the most common haptic technology today and has been built into many electronic devices, such as one attached to the back of a trackpad in laptops. However, haptic feedback with vibration becomes less sensitive when used continuously. The existing technology also has great difficulty recreating the sense of touch with objects in virtual environments or located remotely.The new technology overcomes issues with existing haptic devices. The research team introduced a novel method to recreate the sense of touch through soft, artificial “muscles”.It works like this: imagine you call a friend in Australia. You wear a haptic glove with the SSDs and your friend also wears a glove with 3D force sensors. If your friend picks up an object, it will physically press against your friend’s fingers. And the glove with 3D force sensors will measure th ese interactions. The force signals can be sent to your glove so your device will generate the same 3D forces, making you experience the same sense of touch as your friend.The haptic devices could be used in various fields, allowing users to feel objects inside a virtual world or at a distance. This could be especially beneficial during such times like the COVID-19 pandemic when people rely on video calls to stay connected with loved ones. Or it could be used in medical practices. Doctors can feel a patient’s organ tissues without touching them.5.What does the underlined word “mimic” in paragraph 2 probably mean?A.Recall. B.Strengthen. C.Copy. D.Repeat.6.What does the author focus on in the third paragraph?A.Limitations of the haptic technology. B.Application of haptic devices.C.Common use of continuous vibration. D.Haptic feedback with vibration.7.In which of the following situations can SSD be used according to the author?A.Tasting a dish on the video. B.Feeling a dress being sold online.C.Giving a telephone interview. D.Receiving on-site medical treatment.8.Which word can best describe SSD according to the text?A.Unrealistic. B.Conventional. C.Innovative. D.Adjustable.CTV Shows For TeensA study found that although new types of media are available to youngsters today, television continues to be important.

Back to the sky.I took off running, my sneakers splashing rainwater from puddles, the hand clutching the kite end of the string held high above my head. It had been so long, so many years since I'd done this, and I wondered if I'd make a spectacle of myself. I let the spool roll in my left hand as I ran, felt the string cut my right hand again as it fed through. The kite was lifting behind my shoulder now, lifting, wheeling, and I ran harder. The spool spun faster and the glass string tore another gash in my right palm. I hadn't flown a kite in a quarter of a century, but suddenly I was twelve again and all the old instincts came rushing back.I felt a presence next to me and looked down. It was Sohrab. Hands dug deep in the pockets of his raincoat. He had followed me.My heart quickened as I spun the spool to gather the loose string.Then I saw we had company. A green kite was closing in.His gaze flitted between our kite and the green one. His face was a little flushed, his eyes suddenly alert. Awake. Alive. I wondered when I had forgotten that, despite everything, he was still just a child.The green kite drew closer yet, now rising a little above us, unaware of the trap I'd set for it. "Watch, Sohrab. I'm going to show you one of your father's favorite tricks, the old lift-and-dive.The park shimmered with snow so fresh, so dazzling white, it burned my eyes. It sprinkled soundlessly from the branches of white-clad trees.The green kite hovered directly above us now. "He's going for it. Anytime now,?I said, my eyes flicking from Sohrab to our kite.The green kite hesitated. Held position. Then shot down. "Here he comes!?I said.I did it perfectly. After all these years. The old lift-and-dive trap. I'd already slipped him Hassan's trick. I pulled hard and our kite plummeted. I could almost feel our string sawing his. Almost heard the snap.Behind us, people cheered. Whistles and applause broke out. I was panting. The last time I had felt a rush like this was that day in the winter of 1975, just after I had cut the last kite, when I spotted Baba on our rooftop, clapping, beaming.I looked down at Sohrab. One corner of his mouth had curled up just so.A smile. Lopsided. Hardly there. But there."Do you want me to run that kite for you??His Adam's apple rose and fell as he swallowed. The wind lifted his hair. I thought I saw him nod."For you, a thousand times over,?I heard myself say.Then I turned and ran.It was only a smile, nothing more. It didn't make everything all right. It didn't make anything all right. Only a smile. A tiny thing. A leaf in the woods, shaking in the wake of a startled bird's flight.But I'll take it. With open arms. Because when spring comes, it melts the snow one flake at a time, and maybe I just witnessed the first flake melting.I ran. A grown man running with a swarm of screaming children. But I didn't care. I ran with the wind blowing in my face, and a smile as wide as the Valley of Panjsher on my lips.I ran.12.What can we infer from Para2 ?A.The protagonist longed for freedom of getting rid of religious barriersB.The protagonist couldn’t bear the physical or mental painC.What struck the protagonist was the attempts to pursue perfectD.What was really cherished may be more than just flying kites13.Which of the following is true about Sohrab?A.His personalities and being reminded the protagonist of something emotionalB.He approved to trick the green kite off after inner conflictsC.His father used to fly kites with the company the protagonist’s PapaD.He rejected the protagonist’s request due to inferiority14.What mainly accounted for the protag onist’s changing feelings of the environment?A.Sohrab’s innocent smile of appreciation and respectB.People’s sincere praises and cheersC.The re-finding process of his previous childhoodD.The promise of thousands of times made by Hassan15.What can you learn from the part where the protagonist flew kites for Sohrab?A.Putting off prejudices always serves as the healing medicine of heartB.Collision between hearts can eliminate misunderstandingsC.The poem of love and salvation is as warm as the sunshineD.Compassion from the harmonious world helps melt the snow第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分)根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

2021届(新高考地区)高三入学调研试卷英语(三)学校_________ 班级__________ 姓名__________ 学号__________一、阅读选择1. The best London hotels near Oxford StreetAn expert guide to the top London hotels near Oxford Street—eight minutes' walk or less— including the best hotels for their family-friendly services and budget accommodation.The London EDITIONSoho, London, EnglandThis place is just off Oxford Street in leafy Fitzrovia. It will suit those who want more than a bed for the night. The multi-functional lobby makes a great entrance, though it's the restored ceiling, old not new, that really grabs the attention. The picture- lined restaurant is an equally successful space. The rooms are a bit like being inside a luxurious cigar box, with their wood-panelled walls and artful fur sofa covers that add a feeling of warmth.The Langham, LondonMarylebone, London, EnglandAn advert from the late 19th century declares that the Langham is situated in the "most healthy, convenient and fashionable position in London. " Today this still holds true; the hotel is right in the centre of London. This is one of London's oldest grand hotels. Everything feels as if it has been running the way it should for a long time. Expect enormous vases of fresh flowers in public areas, oriental furnishings and marble baths in the rooms. This is also home to Michel Roux Jr's Roux, which does tasty French cuisine.The Grazing GoatMarylebone, London, EnglandThe hotel is located on New Quebec Street, a quiet road lined with clothing shops and beauty salons about three minutes' walk from Oxford Street. There's something of a village feel to this area of London that is difficult to correspond with the tourist groups moments away—but it's most welcome. Rooms have Egyptian cotton beds, Aesop toilets and walls in the color of moss green and steel blue. The food menu offers seasonal British foods with the latest trendy ingredients.【小题1】In The London EDITION, customers are most likely to be attracted by its .A.multi-functional lobby B.restored ceilingC.luxurious cigar box D.wood-panelled walls【小题2】What do The Langham, London and The Grazing Goat have in common?A.They are old grand hotels.

D.They are located in Marylebone, London.【小题3】Which hotel gives customers the feeling of being in therural area?A.The London EDITION. B.The Langham, London.C.The Grazing Goat. D.All the above.2. I’d been retired for four years, when a friendsuggested university. I thought he was joking—I was rubbish atschool and failed my 11-plus. But we love to compete over Mastermind and University challenge, and he thought I’d make it. And he was absolutely right!I did a foundation course first, which was part time at theUniversity Lifelong Learning Centre(LLC), two nights a week and the odd Saturday. I did quite well, and that gave me the confidence to do a full time, three year degree. I’m passionate about art and Ialways wanted to be here for the journey and not the destination.That sounds really corny, but it was the truth in my case.Initially it was a bit strange fitting in with my course mates. They were all 18, straight out of sixth form or college. Over time, though, they’ve all been fine — now, we all get on really well and there is no issue. I’ve made plenty of friends as a member of the mature students society, and I do some volunteering through the LLC,chatting to prospective students about my experience of coming to university. I tell them my story and basically encourage them to give it a go because you’ve got nothing to lose. I like to think I’veconvinced a few of them.I have no regrets at all. Enrolling in university was the best piece of advice I’ve received in years, especially post-retirement. I needed routine in my life; I needed purpose. I’m not going to spend my day in the bookies or the pub. If you’ve got a passion for something, you should pursue it.【小题1】What do we learn from Paragraph 1?A.The author often competed with his friend at university,B.The author was satisfied with his performance at school,C.The advice of his friend was a big challenge for the author. D.The author’s friend told a joke when suggesting university.【小题2】What was it that made him determined to pursue a full time degree?A.His long held passion for art.B.His boring retirement life.C.His success in the foundation course.D.His desire to travel to the destination.【小题3】What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A.How he got along with his course matesB.How he helped his friends at university.C.What activities he took part in at schoolD.What he experienced as a volunteer.【小题4】Which of the following can serve as the title of the passage?A.Knowledge is power.B.It’s never too old to learn.C.Failure is the mother of success.D.A friend in need is a friend indeed.3. The bad health effects of sleep loss during the week can’t be repaid by longer weekend sleep, according to a new study.Researchers have long known that sleep deprivation (剥夺) can cause weight gain and increase other health risks. But for those who force themselves out of bed every weekday after too few hours of shut eye, they hope turning off the alarm on Saturday and Sunday will repay the weekly sleep debt and remove any ill effects.The research, published in Current Biology, crushes those hopes. Despite complete freedom to sleep during a weekend recovery period, people in a sleep lab who were limited to five hours of sleep on weekdays gained nearly three pounds over two weeks and experienced disorders that would increase their risk for diabetes over the long term. While weekend recovery sleep had some benefits after a singleweek of sleep loss, those gains were wiped out when people fell right back into their same sleep deprived schedule the next Monday.''If there are benefits of catch-up sleep, they're gone when you go back to your daily schedule. It's very short lived'', said Kenneth Wright, director of the sleep and chronobiology lab at the University of Colorado at Boulder. ''These health effects are long term. It's kind of like smoking once was-people would smoke and wouldn't see an immediate effect on their health, but people will say now that smoking is not a healthy lifestyle choice. I think sleep is in the early stage of where smoking used to be.''Wright said that the study suggests people should put sleep inthe first place cutting out the ''sleep stealers'' such as watching television shows or spending time on their phones. Even when people don't have a choice about losing sleep because of child-care responsibilities or job schedules, they should think about getting sleep in the same way they would get a healthy diet or exercise.【小题1】What does the underlined word ''rushes'' mean?A.Ruins. B.Guarantees.C.Deepens. D.Arouses.【小题2】What will Kenneth Wright agree with?A.Smoking is more harmful than sleep loss.B.Weekend recovery sleep has many benefits.C.Smoking and sleep loss have the same bad effects.D.It takes long for people to see the effects of sleep loss.【小题3】What does Kenneth Wright advise people to do?A.Take regular exercise every day.B.Reduce the screen time before sleep.C.Watch some TV shows before bedtime.D.Sleep as long as possible during weekdays.【小题4】What is the main purpose of this passage?A.To share some unhappyB.To show some unknown facts. experiences.C.To promote a healthy lifestyle. D.To introduce a new study.4. Have you ever thought of quitting your job when you feel exhausted? Maybe most of you would say “yes”. After a particularly busy period at work, I decided to get away from it all by going on a hike in the mountains in southern France.Before I left, I read an interesting story in a magazine. It read, “Once, while I was riding on a crowded bus, the man sitting next tome threw his cell phone out of the window when his phone rang. I was surprised. He looked at me, shrugged (耸耸肩) and looked away. I had no idea whether it was his or stolen or whether he even knew what a cell phone was or not, but he clearly wanted to be free of it, because it clearly troubled him.”Billions of people across the world use cell phones. Though cell phones are a wonderful way for communication, they often do the exact opposite.
