approaches, but they come together to share skills, share stories, and share in the joy of making something.Modern maker culture is filling headlines and lab spaces all over the world.The way makers communicate with each other has changed over time.In the past, skills mainly came from personal sitdowns with members of the group.But sometimes a teacher wasn't available, or the one available didn't know how to do the skill others wanted to learn.Today a teacher doesn't even have to be in the same country or occupy the same decade as the students.Thanks to the work of people who take the time to break down and share the details of their craft, an interested individual can learn anything.Guides may range from videos to diagrams and text.Regardless of the media, maker resources are meant to be shared.One of the features of the maker movement is the crossover between different interests.Perhaps a passion for cars and for leathercraft can result in a truly custom interior (定制的内饰).Perhaps a love of knitting (编织) and robotics will result in a tiny—but very mobile—robotic furry cat.And once you have started your creation, finding a community to share with is no longer limited to the people nearby.Modern makers have been sharing videos of their progress online for years, contributing greatly to the rapid spread of the maker movement.As different as the participants might be, they share enthusiasm, support, and a willingness to try.Imagine making a pingpong table together with your makers' team.One group builds the basic frame.Another group takes on the responsibility of painting.You knit the net.There is joy in just giving it a try.It will remind you of childhood creations.Whether you are an experienced programmer or just picking up a hammer for the first time, it is never a bad time to come up with an idea, try something, and share the results.4.How did makers communicate with each other in the past?A.By meeting face to face.B.By asking personal questions.C.By visiting a teacher together.D.By sitting together in a classroom.5.What does the underlined word “crossover” in Paragraph 4 mean?A.Exchange.B.Difference.C.Combination.D.Independence.6.What greatly speeds up the spread of modern maker culture?A.The sharing of videos on the Internet.B.The development of education.C.The increasing willingness to share.D.The increasing number of participants.7.Why does the author mention making a pingpong table in the last paragraph?A.To advise us to start small.B.To inspire some creative ideas.C.To stress the importance of childhood creations.D.To encourage us to join in the maker movement.C(2025届贵州省安顺市高三上学期第一次联考)Holding hands, people jumped into the water, and floated around in Boston's Charles River recently.That is something that would not have been possible years ago because the river was so polluted.In the 1960s, the music group The Standells even sang about the river in their popular song—“Dirty Water”.The swimmers were getting their onceayear chance to cool off from the summer heat in the Charles River.It is called “City Splash”.For a few days each year, the state of Massachusetts allows public swimming on Boston's part of the nearly 130kilometer Charles River.The event is in its fifth year.It is a chance for the nonprofit Charles River Conservancy to show its efforts to build a “swim park”.Their idea is to build floating docks where swimmers can jump safely into the river—without touching the risky bottom.These docks would be in areas where the water quality would be tested repeatedly.Boston is one of the cities hoping to follow the model of Copenhagen, Denmark.That city opened the first of its three floating harbor baths in the early 2000s.On sunny days, people swim in the harbor baths surrounded by tall buildings and cars on the highways.At night, the area is filled with people enjoying music and food.Just recently Paris opened public swimmin g in a oncepolluted canal.New York, London, Berlin and other cities are planning similar features for their waterways.In Boston, the Charles River Conservancy still needs to raise several million dollars.It also needs to get approvals from city, state and federal agencies.The groups spokeswoman S.J.Port, said the__biggest__problem has already been taken care of: The Charles is now one of the cleanest city rivers in America.The U.S.Environmental Protection Agency announced this month that the riverearned a “B” grade for water quality last year—an “A” being the best grade.It means the Charles River met the requirement for swimming 55 percent of the time.8.What is the function of floating docks?A.They are places for swimmers to rest.B.They let swimmers get into the river safely.C.They surround swimmers in a safe area of the river.D.They are used to test the water quality repeatedly.9.Which of the following has set a good example for others in offering floating harbor baths?A.Paris.B.Boston.C.Copenhagen.D.Berlin.10.What does the underlined part “the biggest problem” refer to?A.The pollution of Charles River.B.Lack of money to treat pollution.C.Getting approvals from governments.D.Meeting the requirement of “A” grade.11.What can be inferred from the text?A.The water in Charles River reaches drinking standard.B.People can swim in Charles River at any time.C.This summer is the hottest in Boston.D.Charles River flows through Boston.D(2024年安徽省合肥市巢湖市高考英语模拟试卷)Angel Garcia Crespo is a computer engineer at Carlos Ⅲ University of Madrid in Spain.His group has invented a new way for deafblind people to “watch” TV.The idea for the technology grew out of previous work by his group.The team had already worked on making audiovisual (视听的) materials accessible to people with either vision or hearing disabilities.But the group wanted to help people with both challenges.So they asked some deafblind people what would help.In addition to relying on their sense of touch to communicate, deafblind people can also get and send information with a Braille line.The Braille system uses patterns of raised dots to stand for letters and numbers.A Braille line is an electronic machine with a changeable Braille display.Dots rise up or drop down based on the information sent to the machine.Now the new system changes TV signals to data a Braille line can use.“The key to the system is the possibility of using subtitles (字幕) to collect TV information,”Garcia Crespo explains.“Subtitles travel with the image (影像) and the audio in electromagnetic waves we don't see.But an electronic system can keep those waves.”First,a computer program,or app,pulls out the subtitles and visual descriptions from the broadcast signal.The system then combines the information and changes both into data for Braille.Now another app gets to work, which sends the data out to people's Braille lineson demand.“This is done in real time,in less than a second,” Garcia Crespo says.This lets a deafblind person “watch” TV as it's broadcast.The system will work with various Braille lines,as long as there's a bluetooth connection available.Now,the system is only used in Europe,and it should soon be available in the US.12.What inspired Garcia Crespo's group to work on the new technology?A.Deafblind people's poor life.B.Their pity on the disabled people.C.The challenges they face in work.D.Their group's previous research.13.Why can the electronic system collect TV information?A.It can combine all kinds of broadcast signals.B.It can keep the waves with subtitles travelling.C.It can work together with a variety of Braille lines.D.It can pull out the subtitles and visual descriptions.14.What does the author think of the future of the new technology?A.Challenging. B.Bright.C.Rewarding. D.Hopeless.15.What should be a suitable title for the text?A.New Technology Is Improving Deafblind People's LifeB.A New Braille Line Is Applied to Disabled People's LifeC.A Spanish Group Makes TV Accessible to Blind PeopleD.New Technology Helps Deafblind People “Watch” TV其次节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)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。

Are you used to putting yourself down? If so, you' re not alone.As a teen, you're going through many changes in your body.And as your body changes, so does your image of yourself.Lots of people have trouble adjusting, and this can affect their self-esteem (自尊).If you have a positive body image, you probably like and accept yourself the way you are.This healthy attitude allows you to explore other aspects of growing up, such as developing good friendships, growing more independent from your parents, and challenging yourself physically and mentally.Developing these parts of yourself can help boost (提升) yourself-esteem.A positive attitude and a healthy lifestyle (such as exercising and eating right) are a great combination for building good self-esteem.Some people think they need to change how they look or act to feel good about themselves. But actually all you need to do is change the way you see your body and how you think about yourself.The first thing to do is recognize that your body is your own, no matter what shape, size or color it comes in.If you are very worried about your weight or size, check with your doctor to verify (核实) that things are OK.But it is no one's business but your own what your body is like—ultimately, you have to be happy with yourself.Next, identify which aspects of your appearance you can realistically change and which you can't.Everyone has things about themselves that they can't change and need to accept—like their height, for example, or their shoe size.When you hear negative comments coming from within yourself, tell yourself to stop.Try building your self-esteem by giving yourself three good things every day.By focusing on the good things you do and the positive aspects of your life, you can change how you feel about yourself.The most important thing is to get help if you feel like your body image and self-esteem are affecting your life.【1】If we have a positive body image, we will_____.A.concentrate on our body image onlyB.not develop strong self-esteemC.like and accept ourselves as we areD.be less independent of our parents【2】______ can NOT help to boost your self-esteem.A.Growing independent from your parentsB.Accepting your own body as it actually isC.Having a positive attitude and a healthy lifestyleD.Improving your body image as much as you can【3】To improve our body image, we have to _____.A.think about ourselvesB.be happy with ourselvesC.change the shape, size or color of one's bodyD.check with our doctor to verify that our body is OK【4】Which is probably the best title of the passage?A.Importance of Body Image B.Effects on a Person's Self-esteem C.Tips for Improving Body Image D.Self-esteem and Body Image2.【1】Where can we most probably read this text?A.In a newspaper.B.In a magazine.C.In traveling guide.D.In a history textbook.【2】The business hours of Cook's Cottage on Saturday in the summer are _____?A.11:00 am—2:00 pm B.5:00 pm—10:30 pmC.9:00 am—5:30 pm D.9:00 am—5:00 pm.【3】The Anchorage Restaurant is ____.A.in Williamstown B.in the center of the cityC.in Anchorage D.in Port Philip Bay【4】Where can you spend the night in a tour?A.Cook's Cottage.B.Sovereign Hill.C.Sydney Tower.D.Westfield Counterpoint.3.In an age dominated (控制的) by new media and the Internet, there are so many alternative ways of learning.Gone are the days when, if we couldn't make it into a classroom, the only real option was to pick up a book, or when audio materials consisted of bad quality cassettes or sporadic(时有时无的) radio and TV programmes.With the appearance of broadband access to the web, we have a whole new learning domain (统领) at our fingertips.Sophisticated learning materials in the form of text or high-quality audio are now available at the touch of a button, and tests and assignments can be submitted (进行) and marked online.Questions and learning, studying away from the classroom has never seemed easier.Yet many teachers would argue that face-to-face contact between teachers and students is an essential part of the language learning experience.Enter the concept of blended (融合的) learning, an approach to education which seeks to combine the best of new technology and actual human contact.Advocates of blended learning argue that an approach to study which combines the benefits of new technology with the best aspects of face-to-face (often abbreviated to F2F) teaching, will achieve better results.For example, there are some aspects of study, like practical sessions, dealing with more subjective questions, or meeting the needs of an individual student, which require face-to-face human interaction, whereas the more mechanical aspects of learning, such as answers to clear-cut questions, can be managed simply and effectively in a remote environment using new technology.Blended learning approaches have proven especially appropriate in language learning.For example, in an ELT (English Language Teaching ) environment, a simple scenario (剧情概要) might be a classroom session where a teacher asks a group of students to use a wiki to create a text. Students then go away and compose and edit the text remotely.During the next F2F session, the teacher express his opinion about their work.【1】What is the main idea of this passage?A.Blended learning is an effective learning approach.B.More and more people will use Internet-based learning materials,C.There are so many different ways of learning for people to choose in today's world.D.Blended learning methods have proven to be effective except in language learning.【2】Which of the following aspects of study doesn't require face-to-face interaction between teachers and students?A.Practical sessions.B.Tackling the needs of an individual student.C.Dealing with more subjective questions.D.Providing answers to clear-cut questions.【3】It can be inferred from the passage that ______.A.the radio and TV in the past were of poor qualityB.people do not get audio materials through cassettes nowadaysC.it was not convenient for people to leam outside a classroom in the pastD.it was difficult to find a classroom with good learning conditions in the old days【4】Which of the following can be best describe the writer's attitude towards blended learning? A.Critical.B.Objective (客观的).C.Supportive.D.Neutral (中立的).4.Botany (植物学) , the study of plants, occupies a particular position in the history of human knowledge.For many thousands of years it was the one field of awareness about which humans had anything more than the vaguest (模糊的)) of insights.It is impossible to know today just what our Stone Age ancestors knew about plants, but from what we can observe of pre-industrial societies that still exist, a detailed learning of plants and their properties must be extremely ancient.This is logical.Plants are the basis of the food pyramid for all living things even for other plants.They have always been enormously important to the welfare of people not only for food but also for clothing, tools, medicines, shelter, and a great many other purposes.Tribes living today in the jungle of the Amazon recognize hundreds of plants and know many properties of each.To them, botany has noname and is probably not even recognized as a special branch of "knowledge" at all.Unfortunately, the more industrialized we become, the farther away we move from direct contact with plants, and the less distinct our knowledge grows.Yet everyone comes unconsciously on an amazing amount of botanical knowledge, and few people will fail to recognize a rose or an apple.When nor Neolithic ancestors, living in the Middle East about 10,000 years ago, discovered that certain grasses could be harvested and their seeds planted for richer fields the next season—the first, great step in a new association of plants and humans was taken.Grains were discovered and from them flowed the wonder of agriculture: cultivated crops.From then on, humans would increasingly take their living from the controlled production of a few plants, rather than getting a little here and a little there from many varieties that grew wild, and the accumulated knowledge of tens of thousands of years of experience with plants in the wild would begin to fade away.【1】What does the writer mean when he says "This is logical" in the first paragraph?A.Human knowledge of plants is well organized and very detailed.B.It is not surprising that early humans had a detailed knowledge of plants.C.There is no clear way to determine the extent of our ancestor's knowledge of plant.D.It is reasonable to assume our ancestors behave much like people in pre-industrial societies.【2】According to the passage, general knowledge of botany begun to fade away because ____.A.people no longer value plants as a useful resourceB.direct contact with a variety of plants has decreasedC.botany is not recognized as a special branch of scienceD.research is unable to keep up with the increasing number of plants【3】We learn that the first great step toward the practice of agriculture is____.A.the changing diets of early humansB.the development of a system of names for plantsC.the invention of agricultural implements (工具) and machineryD.the discovery of certain grasses that could be harvested and replanted【4】Human would depend on the controlled production of a few plants for living withA.the knowledge of plantsB.the discovery of certain grassesC.the development of machineryD.the appearance of agriculture5.It has been argued that an infant under three who is cared for outside the home may suffer because of the separation from his parents.The British psychoanalyst John Bowlby believes that separation from the parents during the sensitive "attachment" period from birth to three may scar (留下疤痕) a child's personality and incline to emotional problems in later life.Some people have drawn the conclusion from Bowlby's work that children should not be sent to day care before the age of three, and many people do believe this.But there are also arguments against such a strong conclusion.Firstly, anthropologists (人类学家) point out that the hidden love between children and parents found in modem societies does not usually exist in traditional societies.For example, we saw earlier that among the Ngonis the father and mother of a child did not raise their infant alone.But traditional societies are so different from modern societies that comparisons based on just one factor are hard to understand.Secondly, common sense tells us that day care would not be so widespread today if parents and caretakers found that children had problems with it.But Bowlby's analysis raises the possibility that early day care has delayed effects.The possibility that such care might lead to more mental illness or crime 15 or 20 years later can only be noticed by the use of statistics.Statistical studies of this kind have not yet been carried out, and even if they were, the results would be certain to be complicated and controversial.Thirdly, in the last decade, there have been a number of careful American studies of children in day care, and they have reported that day care had a neutral of slightly positive effect on children's development.But teststhat have had to be used to measure this development are not widely enough accepted to settle the issue.【1】This passage is mainly talking about________.A.children's personalityB.advantages of infants' early careC.infants' educationD.negative effect of infant school【2】The phrase "day care in the first paragraph probably means_____.A.nursing school B.baby-sitterC.boarding school D.primary school【3】According to Bowlby, children under the age of three______.A.should not be sent to schoolB.should be cared for outside the homeC.will not suffer fro m parental separationD.don't mind who will look after them【4】The argument against Bowlby's conclusion shows that___.A.children have problems with day careB.there is no negative effect on infants who go to school before threeC.there is a long-term effect on infants who go to school before threeD.children who are sent to school before three are sent to mental illness四、短文改错There are two types of people in the world.Although they have equal degrees of health and wealth and the other comforts of life, one becomes happy, the other becomes miserable.This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, and events, and the resulting effects upon their minds.The people who are to be happy fix their attention on the conveniences of things, the pleasant parts of conversation, the well-prepared dishes, the goodness of the wines, and the fine weather.They enjoy all the cheerful things.Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the contrary things.Therefore, they are continually discontented (不满意的).By their remarks, they soar (提升) the pleasures of society, offend (冒犯) many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere.If this turn of mind were founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be pitied.The tendency to criticize and be disgusted (厌恶) is perhaps taken up originally by imitation. It grows into a habit, unknown to its possessors.The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it are convinced of its bad effects on their interests and tastes.I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit.Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious consequences in life, since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck.Those people offend many others, nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect, and scarcely that.This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments.If they aim at obtaining some advantage in rank or fortune, nobody wishes them success.Nor will anyone speak a word to favor their hopes.If they bring on themselves public disapproval, no one will defend or excuse them.These people should change this bad habit.If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact with them.Title: Two Types of People五、书面表达假设你是李华,你的澳大利亚朋友Dick写信给你,询问你校有关减轻中学生学习负担的情况。

Shulman, an actor and jewellery designer, worked with Kwiat Heritage Jewels to create the ring. The pair quietly began dating in November 2008,but weren't pictured together until the following year.“We hit it off immediately the first time we met each other but it took us a pretty long time to get toget her," she has said of Shulman. “He thought that I had a boyfriend and I thought that he had a girlfriend, so I thought that I'd better keep my distance because I didn't want to be that girl. She described their union as more mature than her previous experi ences, adding, “Being mature doesn't always make for a good story, but it makes for a good life.”Speaking about the relationship in the September issue(期刊)of U.K.s Marie Claire, she said, “Adam totally ruined my plan. I was really actually looking forward to a little time alone tod then I fell in love like a fool. Her romance with Shulman followed a disastrous relationship with an Italian real estate(地产)developer Raffaello Follieri. She split up with him in 2008 when he was arrested on fraud(欺诈)charges and he was later sentenced to four and a half years in prison.The actress, whose film credits also include Brokeback Mountain and One Day, will next star in the new The Dark Knight Rises.

All skirts will be banned from September. Tight-fitting trousers will also be forbidden and Muslim head-dresses will have to be “school blue’’ color.Head teacher Don Smith said, "One of the big problems for us at the school has been the number of girls who have been wearing inappropriately short skirts. This has been an area of particular concern at a time when there has been a lot of material nationally about the sexualisation of young people.”He also said, “ It will be impractical to police the length of girls' skirts. A blanket ban will be easier for staff to put into practice. We did not want to arrive at a situation where we were telling girls their skirts could only be a certain number of centimeters above or below the knee. Pupils', parents' and other teachers' opinions were sought before the uniform rules were changed.,,The new clothing policy has been explained in a letter sent to parents of the school's 1,000 pupils and will come into force after the summer holiday. Support will be given to parents unable to afford the new tie. The school also wants pupils to wear clip-on(夹式)ties instead of traditional neckties.But the new uniform rules have not been well received by everyone. One parent, whose teenage daughter attends the school, said, “I completely agree some girls were wearing skirts that were too short. However, I t hink girls should be allowed to be feminine(女性化的).Other schools manage to let girls wear skirts while making sure they are not inappropriately dressed. I don't see why Paget can't do the same."【1】The girls at Paget High School are not allowed to wear skirts in that _______.A.short skirts give people the impression of sexualisationB.short skirts are too expensive for parents to affordC.the headmaster doesn't like girls wearing short skirtsD.the girls wearing short skirts will be at the risk of being laughed at【2】We can learn from the passage that _______A.the new uniform rules are well received by everyoneB.no schools in Branston allow girls to wear short skirtsC.parents unable to afford the new uniform will gain supportD.the pupils' parents were informed of the new clothing policy【3】What's the attitude of Mr. Smith towards the new uniform rules?A.Disagreeable.B.Supportive.C.Anxious.D.Curious.【4】What's the best title for the passage?A.New School Rules Set B.Girls' Skirts ForbiddenC.Traditional Neckties Gone D.Different Opinions Voiced3.Have you ever heard of Paynes Prairie(大草原)? It is one of the most important natural and historical areas in Florida. Paynes Prairie is located near Gainesville. It is large, 21,000 acres. This protected land is called a reserve, which is managed by the Florida Park Service.The Paynes Prairie basin was formed when limestone(石灰石)broke down and the ground settled. It is covered by wet prairie plants. There are areas of open water. During brief periods it was flooded enough to be considered a lake. Except for that, the basin has changed little through time.Man has lived on Paynes Prairie a very long time. He lived there as far back as 10,000 B.C.. At one time, the Seminoles lived there. The prairie is thought to have been named after King Payne, a Seminole chief. During the late 1600s, the largest farm where cattle are fed in Florida was on Paynes.William Bartram who lived 200 years ago visited Paynes Praire in 1774. Bartram was the first person who described nature through personal experiences as well as scientific observations. At that time he called Paynes Prairie the “great Alachua Savannah". Most of the animal life, which Bartram described, is still here. A large number of animals live here in winter. The variety of animals is increased by the presence of pine flat woods, wetlands and ponds.The Paynes Prairie Reserve State Park is open all year round. The Florida Park Service works hard so that the park will appear as it did in the past. It offers many opportunities for entertainment. In the park you can camp and picnic. You can hike and bike. You can boat and fish. You can ride on horses. And you can see Florida as it was in the early days.【1】The second paragraph is mainly about _______.A.how the present Paynes Prairie basin came into beingB.what the present Paynes Prairie basin is covered byC.why the present Paynes Prairie basin is unchangedD.when the present Paynes Prairie basin began to exist【2】All of the following statements are true EXCEPT that _______A.the Florida Park Service manages Paynes PrairieB.you can have fun in the Paynes Prairie Reserve State ParkC.there used to be a big cattle farm on Paynes PrairieD.William Bartram was the first person to visit Paynes prairie【3】The purpose of the passage is to _______.A.call on people to protect wildlife of Paynes PrairieB.introduce Paynes Prairie to peopleC.tell people the recorded history of Paynes PrairieD.attract people to visit Paynes Prairie【4】What will the writer most probably talk about in the paragraph that follows?A.The effect of tourism on Paynes Prairie.B.The history and present of Florida.C.The natural resources of Florida.D.The future development of Paynes Prairie.4.“Whatever”,totally tops most annoying word in the poll(民意测验).So, you know, it is what it is, but Americans are totally annoyed by the use of “whatever,,in conversations. The popular term of indifference(不感兴趣)was found most annoying in conversations by 47 percent of the Americans surveyed in a Marist College poll on Wednesday."Whatever" easily beat out “you know," which especially annoyed a quarter of interviewers. The other annoying expressions were "anyway"(at 7 percent), “it is what it is’,(11percent) and “at the end of the day”(2 percent). "Whatever" is an expression with staying power. It left everyone a deep impression in the song by Nirvana (“oh well, whatever, never mind”)in 1991 and was popularized by the Valley Girls in the film “Clueless”,later that decade. It is still commonly used, often by younger people.It can be a common argument-ender or a signal of indifference. And it can really be annoying. The poll found '"whatever" to be consistently(始终地)disliked by Americans regardless of their race, sex, age, income or where they live.“It doesn't surprise me because ‘whatever,is in a special class, probably,,,said Michael Adams, author of “Slang(俚语)~The People's Poetry" and an associate professor of English at Indiana University. "It's a word that一 and it depends on how a speaker uses it 一can suggest being not worthy of attention or respect.’,Adams, who didn't take part in the poll and is not annoyed by "whatever," points out that its use is not always negative. “It can also be used in place of other neutral(中性的)phrases that have fallen out of favor, like ‘six of one, half dozen of the other,.” he said. However, he also noted that the negative meaning of the word might explain why “whatever,was judged more annoying than the ever-popular "you know”.【1】Which tops second among the annoying expression according to the passage?'A.Whatever.B.You know.C.Anyway.D.It is what it is.【2】 What can we know about the word "whatever"?A.It became popular because of Nirvana.B.It can be commonly used at the beginning of an agreement.C.Old people like it while young people don't.D.Almost half of the Americans surveyed disliked it.【3】In Adams' opinion, the reason why “whatever”,was judged more annoying may be that . _______ A.most of the people don't like itB.it can be used in place of other neutral phrasesC.it carries certain negative meaning sometimesD.the poor don't like it【4】Which of the following statements is true?A.Adams is not only a writer but also a professor.B.“Whatever” is a signal of concern.C.Adams is angry at the word “whatever”D."Whatever" will be replaced by "You know”.5.Keeping a busy social life among lots of friends may keep people thinner than spending hours doing some exercises, according to scientists. They say that socialising and meeting with friends help increase levels of brown fat in the body which burns calories(卡路里)to produce heat.Living in an exciting social environment was found to reduce fat in mice's belly by half over four weeks, even if they ate more. US researchers say that social excitement aids weight loss by turning white fat into brown. White fat stores calories and makes us fatter, while brown burns energy to produce heat. Turning white fat into brown is extremely difficult,normallyrequiring long- term stay in cold conditions or exciting part of the body's nervous system.However, scientists from Ohio State University now think that having a busy social life is an even more effective way of changing white fat into brown. The team came up with their theory by studying the effects of various living environments on mice. Those, who lived alongside a greater number of mice, had more space and toys to excite themselves and then lost far more weight over the course of the study than their “couch potato" fellows.Study author, Dr Matthew During, whose team's findings appear in the journal Cell Metabolism, said, "I'm still amazed at the degree of fat loss that occurs." Explaining how new technology had threatened face-to-face socialising, he added, "It's not just a sedentary(久坐的)lifestyle and high calorie foods, but an increasing lack of social activities." Co-author Dr Lei Cao said,"Loneliness is a potential factor for cancer and death; it's equal to cigarette smoking to a certain extent. Social activities are very vital.,,【1】What information can we get from the first two paragraphs?A.Brown fat stores calories and makes us fatter.B.It doesn't take long to turn white fat into brown.C.Social excitement helps gain more weight.D.Brown fat can burn energy to produce heat.【2】Which of the following statement does the text support?A.Levels of brown fat can be increased by socialising.B.The mice lacking social life lose more weight.C.The research findings haven't been published so far.D.Dr Matthew During wasn't convinced of the result.【3】We can conclude from the text that _______.A.the fat in mice's belly was reduced because of the relaxing environmentB.a sedentary lifestyle and high calories foods influence people's social lifeC.surfing the Internet may influence people's face-to-face communicationD.cancer and death are mainly caused for lack of social life【4】What’s the main idea of the text?A.Brown fat is beneficial to people's health.B.Socialising is unnecessarily important in people's daily life.C.White fat can be changed into brown fat.D.Socialising contributes to people's losing weight.四、信息匹配请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。

This special sign-language is frequently 36 by tramps to inform their 37 whether the host of a certain house is friendly or unfriendly, and to 38 them the trouble of making unnecessary calls.Quite 39 one day, I came across a real tramp. He was such a rare sight these days that I stood some distance away and watched him. He was dressed just as a tramp should be 40 , old worn trousers, and a jacket many sizes too big for him. On his head there was a battered old hat and his boots were so old and worn; they were almost coming into 41 . But the man himself looked cheerful as if he had not been a 42 in the world. He rubbed his nose with his forefinger, 43 a funny turn, laid a small parcel by the front gate, and began 44 a sign made by a former caller. Although the sign was meaningless to me, it must have been 45 , for the tramp’s face lit up with 46 . He entered the front gate confidently and rang the bell. When the door opened, I saw him 47 his hat but couldn’t hear his words. The 48 was very short indeed, for no sooner had he spoken a few words than the door closed fiercely in his face. I felt 49 for him as he walked 50 out of the house, But just as quickly, his face lit up again and he moved quickly towards the gate. There he stopped, looked at the sign, and 51 his head seriously as if he had made a bad mistake. 52 deeply into his pockets, he produced a piece of chalk, rubbed out the 53 sign and made a new one in its place. He stared at it for a moment smiling to himself, then gatheredhis 54 , pushed back his hat and began walking towards the next house at an unhurried 55 , whistling as he went along.【1】A.employed B.made C.taken D.put up【2】A.parents B.classmates C.fellows D.friends【3】A.share B.save C.give D.put【4】A.in a way B.by mistake C.by the way D.by chance【5】A.with B.in C.by D.on【6】A.a fashion B.a design C.pieces D.blocks【7】A.success B.care C.failure D.family【8】A.gave B.got C.set D.made【9】A.drawing B.kissing C.correcting D.studying 【10】A.pleased B.strange C.funny D.exciting 【11】A.surprise B.satisfaction C.worry D.disappointment 【12】A.rise B.put on C.raise D.throw【13】A.conversation B.introduction C.quarrel D.greeting 【14】A.happy B.frightened C.worried D.sorry【15】A.cheerful B.sadly C.bravely D.eagerly 【16】A.waved B.swung C.shook D.nodded 【17】A.Digging B.Stealing C.Putting D.Looking 【18】A.appearing B.moving C.shining D.existing 【19】A.belongings B.clothes C.umbrella D.stick【20】A.step B.position C.pace D.situation三、阅读理解1.Looking for some inspiration or the “write” kind of ideas for your creative stories? To start with, some writers describe winter by using their five senses or their imagination. Others write on their favorite winter activity. Whatever you choose to write about, working on a winter story can always help to improve your writing skills. Now read the following story and see if it helps get rid of any icy writing block you’ ve been struggling with.A Winter AdventureBeep, beep. Beep-beep: the alarm clock rang. Slowly, I got out of warm bed down onto the wooden floor which the winter had thrown its cold upon. The bitter cold temperature penetrated (穿透)my socks and I hurried to put my feet in shoes.Looking out of the window, I watched the white snow, soft and thick, drop onto rooftops and trees. Half an hour later, finishing the last of my hot chocolate, I prepared to enter the adventure that waited for me outside. I buttoned my jacket and fastened my boots. Hat on, I opened the door and was greeted by the winter coldness. In the depths of winter, the early morning did not have the rush of the rest of the year. Most of my neighbours were put off by the cold, and stayed in bed until the sun had climbed higher into the sky.Unseen by those who remained locked inside their homes, warm in their beds, I enjoyed being alone with the beauty of the wintertime. Those indoors were unable to appreciate the snow-scapes, ice crystals, frost and the crisp(清新的)breeze. For them, the coming of winter meant just the arrival of the cold.Appreciation depends on contrasts. One cannot love the warmth of April if one has not known the freezing cold of winter. Later that year, the heat of the sun on my skin would be all the more wonderful for my memories of that cold morning and others like it.【1】The underlined word “adventure” refers to____________.A.getting out of bed on the cold winter morning.B.enjoying the loveliness of the winter outdoorsC.going skiing on the cold winter morningD.throwing snowballs with friends.【2】According to the story A Winter Adventure, most of the neighbours _________.A.didn’t work in winter B.stayed up late in winterC.missed the beauty of winter D.enjoyed the seasons except winter【3】Which of these statements is true according to the story A Winter Adventure?A.Of all the seasons, the writer loves winter most.B.The writer regrets that he went out on the freezing cold winter morning.C.The writer believes contrast makes our experiences of the seasons lovelier.D.The writer values the autumn and summer more than the winter【4】What function does the story A Winter Adventure serve?A.To share some winter thoughts with readers.B.To show readers how to work on a winter story.C.To inspire readers to take more exercise in winterD.To tell readers how to appreciate the beauty of winter.2.SEE a cell phone cover that you like on Taobao? Forget about placing an order, paying the bill online and waiting for days for it to be delivered to you. In the near future, you'll be able to get it in minutes just by hit-ting "print" on your computer.You might find it hard to believe that you could actually "print" an object like you would a picture. But it is not that hard to under-stand how it would work. Just as a traditional printer sprays (喷) ink onto paper line by line, modern 3-D printers spread material onto a surface layer by layer, from the bottom to the top, gradually building up a shape.Instead of ink, the materials the 3-D printer uses are mainly plastic, resin (树脂)and certain metals. The thinner each layer is --- from a millimeter to less than the width of a hair --- the smoother and finer the object will be. This may sound like a completely new technology, but the truth is that 3-D printing has been around since the late 1980s. Back then, it was barely affordable for most people, so few knew about it.Last year, though, saw a big change in the 3-D printing industry--- printers became much cheaper. For example, 10 years ago a desktop 3-D printer might have cost £20,000 (200,000 yuan), while now they cost only about £ 1,000, according to the BBC.Taken out of the factory and in-troduced to more diverse and com-mon uses, 3-D printing can create just about anything you can think of ---flutes (笛子), bikinis, jewelry, aircraft parts and even human organs. In fact, scientists from Cornell Univer-sity in New York have just made an artificial ear using a 3-D printer, accord-ing to Science Daily. The fake ear looks and acts exactly like a natural one.However, as 3-D printing becomes more commonplace, it may bring about certain problems --- such as piracy. "Once you can download a coffee maker, or print out a new set of kitchen utensils (餐具) on your personal 3-D printer, who will visit a retail (零售的) store again?" an expert in 3-D printing told Forbes News. Even more frightening, what if anyone in the world could use a 3-D printer to print out a fully functioning gun?【1】According to the article, in the future, the 3-D printing technology will ___.A.enable people to make better purchases onlineB.be applied as widely in our daily lives as computersC.change the way we make many productsD.shorten the time it takes for people to get what they buy online【2】What was the big event happening in the 3-D printing industry last year?A.The 3-D printing technology was taken out ofthe factory.B.The 3-D printer became more affordable forconsumers.C.The 3-D printer was used for medical treatmentfor the first time.D.3-D printing technology began to be used invarious fields.【3】How is the last paragraph developed?A.By analyzing a cause and an effect.B.By making comparisons.C.By giving examples.D.By presenting research findings.【4】What is the best title of the passage?A.Printing out everything B.Technology in the futureC.Online shopping disappearing D.Great demand for 3-D printers3.BRITAIN is a popular tourist place.But tours of the country have advantages and disadvantages.GOOD NEWSFree museums.No charge for outstanding collections of art and antiquities(文物).Pop music.Britain is the only country to compare with the US on this score.Black cabs.London taxi drivers know where they are going even if there are neverenough of them at weekends or night.Choice of food.Visitors can find everything from Ethiopian to Swedish restaurants.Fashion.Not only do fashion junkies love deeply and respect highly brand namessuch as Vivienne Westwood, Alexander McQueen; street styles are justly loved, too.BAD NEWSPoor service.“It’s part of the image of the place.People can dine out on the rudeness they have experienced,” says Professor Tony Seaton, of Luton University’s International Tourism Research Center.Poor public transport.Trains and buses are promised to defeat the keenest tourists, although the overcrowded London tube is inexplicably (难以理解的) popular.Rain.Still in the number one complaint.No air-conditioning.So that even splendidly hot summers become as unbearable as the downpours. Overpriced hotels.The only European country with a higher rate of tax on hotel rooms is Denmark.Licensing hours.Alcohol (酒) is in short supply after 11 p.m. even in “24-hour cities”.【1】What do tourists complain most?A.Poor service.B.Poor public transport.C.Rain.D.Overpriced hotels.【2】What do we learn about pop music in Britain and the US through this passage?A.Pop music in Britain is better than that in the US.B.Pop music in Britain is as good as that in the US.C.Pop music in Britain is worse than that in the US.D.Pop music in Britain is quite different from that in the US.【3】When are people not able to get alcohol?A.At 12: 00 p.m.B.At 10: 00 p.m.C.At 11: 00 p.m.D.At 9: 00 p.m.【4】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.You have to pay to visit the museums.B.It’s very cheap to travel by taxi there.C.You cannot find Chinese food there.D.The public transport is poor there.4.Animals can move from place to place, but plants cannot. When an animal is under attack, it can run away or fight back. Plants certainly cannot run away, and they lack teeth and claws. But plants can defend themselves by using both physical and chemical means.Some plants have their own ways to keep animals away. For example, the leaves of the holly plant have sharp spines (刺) that discourage grass-eating animals. Holly leaves on lower branches have more spines than leaves on upper branches. This is because the lower leaves are easier for most animals to reach.Some plants, such as the oak tree, have thick and hard leaves that are difficult for animals to eat. Some grassesmay contain a sandy material; eating such grasses wears down the animal's teeth.Many plants also have chemical defenses. Some plants produce chemicals that taste bitter or cause an unpleasant reaction. Some plants may fight against an attack by increasing the production of these chemicals. When a caterpillar (毛虫) bites a tobacco leaf, the leaf produces a chemical messenger. This messenger sendsto the roots the information to produce more nicotine. The higher levels of nicotine discourage the caterpillar. Many plants depend on both physical and chemical defenses. A certain plant in China, for instance, has prickly (多刺的) leaves, and each prickle contains poisonous venom (毒液). A single experience with this kind of plantwill teach an animal to stay away from it in the future.【1】The holly plant has more spines on the lower leaves because most animals________.A.are not tall enough B.like the lower leaves onlyC.are not clever enough D.can get the lower leaves easily【2】To defend themselves, oak trees use________.A.chemical means B.physical meansC.bitter chemicals D.sandy materials【3】How does tobacco protect itself against an attack from a caterpillar?A.Its leaves fight against the attack by physical means.B.Its roots send a messenger to discourage the caterpillar.C.Its roots increase the production of nicotine when it is attacked.D.Its leaves produce poisonous sand to drive the caterpillar away.【4】What would be the best title for this passage?A.Plants and Animals B.How Plants Defend ThemselvesC.Attacks and Defenses D.How Animals Eat Plant Leaves5.There is a famous story about British poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge. He was writing a poem when he was interrupted by a knock at the door.This was an age before telephones. Someone was delivering a message. When Coleridge got back to his poem, he had lost his inspiration. His poetic mood had been broken by the knock on his door. His unfinished poem, which could otherwise have been a masterpiece, would now never be more than a fragment.This story tells how unexpected communication can destroy an important thought, which bring us to the cellphone.The most common complaint about cellphones is that people talk on them to the annoyance of people around them. But more damaging may be the cellphone’s interruption of our thoughts.We have already entered a golden age of little white lies about our cellphones, and this is by and large(大体上)a healthy, protective development. “I didn’t hear it ring” or “I didn’t realize my phone had shut off” are among the lies we tell to give ourselves space where we’re beyond reach.The notion of being unreachable is not a new concept—we have “Do Not Disturb” sign on the doors of hotel rooms. So why must we feel guilty when it comes to cellphones? Why must we apologize if we decide to shut off the phone for a while?Now time alone, or a conversation with someone next to us which cannot be interrupted by a phone, issomething to be cherished. Even cellphone devotees(信徒), myself usually included, can’t help at times wanting to throw their phone away, or curse the day they were invented.But we don’t and won’t, and there really is no need. All that’s required to take back our private time is a general social recognition that we have the right to it. In other words, we have to develop a healthy contempt(轻视) forthe rings of our own phones.A cellphone call deserves no greater priority(优先考虑的事) than a random(随机的) word from the person next to us,though the call on my cellphone may be the one-in-a-million from Steven Spielberg—who has finally readmy novel and wants to make it his next movie. But most likely it is not, and I’m better off thinking about the idea I just had for a new story, or the slice of pizza I’ll eat for lunch.【1】What is the point of the anecdote about the poet Coleridge in the first three paragraphs?A.To direct readers’ attention to the main topic.B.To show how important inspiration is to a poetC.To emphasize the disadvantage of not having a cellphoneD.To encourage readers to read the works of this poet.【2】What does the writer think about people telling “white lies” about their cellphones?A.It is a way of signaling that you don’t like the caller.B.It is natural to tell lies about small thingsC.It is basically a good way to protect one’s privacy.D.We should feel guilty when we can’t tell the truth.【3】According to the author, what is the most annoying problem caused by cellphones?A.People get so obsessed(着迷) with the cellphone rings that they fail to notice anything else.B.People feel guilty when they are not able to answer their cellphones.C.Cellphones interrupt people’s private time.D.With cellphones it is no longer possible to be unreachable.【4】What does the last paragraph suggest?A.A person who calls us from afar deserves more of our attentionB.Steven Spielberg once called the author to talk about the author’s novel.C.You should always finish your lunch before you answer a call on the cellphone.D.Never let cellphones disturb your life too much.四、其他请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。

安徽高三高中英语高考模拟班级:___________ 姓名:___________ 分数:___________一、阅读理解1.A scientist believes he has discovered a direct link between people's favourite sleeping position and their personality.Professor Chris Idzikowski has described six different positions and what each one says about a person's character.The professor,who did the research for a hotel group,said,"We are all aware of our body language when we are awake but this is the first time we have been able to see what our position says about us when we are asleep."At the moment,Professor Idzikowski is trying to sleep in a yoga position that involves crossing your legs around your neck.He says there is no perfect position for sleeping.1.THE STARFISH"Starfish" sleep flat on their back with their arms raised.They are good listeners who make friends easily but do not like to be the centre or the attention.2.THE YEARNER"Yearners" sleep on their side with their arms raised.They are doubtful and have a very sensible approach to life.3.THE FOETUSThe most popular position,particularly among women.They sleep curled(蜷缩)up on their side,holding on to the pillow.They appear to be tough but are actually sensitive and shy.4.THE FREEFALLEROnly 6.5% of people prefer to sleep on their front,making this the least popular sleeping position."Freefallers" seem very confident,although this hides a nervous personality.5.THE LOGThe "log" position is similar to the "yearner" but with arms by the sides."Logs" are easy-going and sociable,but can be seen as too gullible,easily to be victims.6.THE SOLDIER"Soldiers",who sleep on their back with their arms by their sides,are quiet and reserved.They set high standards for themselves and do not like noisy social situations.【1】Which of the following sayings about the sleeping position is correct?A."Starfish" like to be the focus of the attention.B."Yearners" sleep on their back with their arms raised.C."Foetus" seem to be strong but sensitive.D."Soldiers" sleep on their side with their arms by their sides.【2】Which sleeping position suggests a seemingly confident but nervous personality?A.

Research shows that low temperatures make it harder for the body to fight off the virus that causes half of the colds in adults and almost all colds in children.The finding backs up the popular idea that people are more likely to catch a cold if they feel freezing,perhaps by putting on a coat in winter or going out with wet hair.The U.S. Researchers looked at how well rhinovirus(鼻病毒),the biggest cause of the common cold,grew in cells kept at different temperatures.The virus found it easier to breed(繁殖)at 33℃-the sort of temperature typically found inside the nose-than at the 37℃ found deep inside the body.Researchers also found that the body’s initial immune response(免疫反应)to the cold did not work as well at 33℃,the same temperatures.The virus was followed to cause damage.The experiments were carried out on cells taken from mice,but the result may also be relevant to humans-including the one in five who carry the rhinovirus in their nose at any given time.Ron Eccles,a leading British expert on the common cold,suggests that those anxious to avoid a cold try taking vitamin D because we tend to be low on it during the winter.【1】Which of the following is more likely to cause a cold?A.Wrapping a scarf around the nose in winter.B.Putting on a coat in winter.C.Going out with wet hair.D.Taking vitamin【2】What is the percentage of people who carry the rhinovirus in their nose at any given time?A.10%.B.20%C.50%D.80%【3】Why does Ron Eccles suggest taking vitamin D in winter to avoid a cold?A.Because human bodies contain less vitamin D in winter.B.Because human bodies contain more vitamin D in winter.C.Because many people avoid taking vitamin D in winter.D.Because many people favor vitamin D in winter.【4】What can be learned from the text?A.It is easier for the body to fight off cold virus in low temperatures.B.The finding may be easily accepted by the public.C.The typical temperature inside the nose is 37℃.D.The virus is very likely to do harm at 37℃.二、其他Do you know how to deal with failure at school? Here are four steps that will help you get the most out of each failure,and move on.【1】 When you feel bad after failing,talk with your parents or good friend,or any other adult.Then decide to take the responsibility to improve yourself.Read the teachers’ comments on your test carefully.Ask yourself what you were trying to do and why you failed.【2】Maybe you didn’t have all the information you needed; maybe you made a mistake or a poor decisi on.If so,give yourself a pat in the back.Fewer people ever get something right the first time they try it,and often it takes them many times.【3】Sometimes the failure isn’t because of something you did or didn’t do; it is someone else’s fault.But don’tspend time blaming them; instead,move on toward your goals.Don’t give up easily.【4】 There is a difference between making a decision and giving up.Deciding to follow a better way is one thing; simply walking away means you really have failed.Keep trying again.Successful people are different because they choose their next steps instead of just reacting to feelings.If a goal is still important to you,figure out what to do and go after it again.【5】A.No pains,no gains.B.Failure is unavoidable.C.If it isn’t,do your best on something else.D.Remove you bad feelings.E.Actually it was because you were very lazy.F.Review the situation to see what your choices are.ually it was because you were trying out a new skill or learning a new subject.三、完形填空I remember the first time I got on a horse.When I was a little boy aged two,my mom agreed to let me take a short __ and that was it!

As a result, 36 she ever heard growing up was “Julie, you should be a vet. You’re going to be a great vet. That’s what you should do.” 37 when she got to the Ohio State University, she started studying to be a vet.A scholarship allowed her to spend her 38 year studying abroad in Manchester, England. Away from thefamily 39 back home, she found herself one day sitting at her desk, surrounded by biology books and staringout the window, when it suddenly hit her: “I’m in total 40 . I don’t want to be a vet!”41 she thought back over all the things she’d done in her life and what had made her happy. And then it hit her—it was all of the youth leadership conferences that she had volunteered 42 , and the communications and leadership courses she had taken as elective courses back at Ohio State. “How could I have been so 43 ? Here I am in my fourth year at school and just finally realizing I’m on the 44 path. I just never took the time to 45 it until now, ” she thought.Inspired by her new 46 , Julie spent the rest of her year in England taking courses in communications and media studies. When 47 to Ohio State, she was eventually able to 48 the administration to let her create her ownp rogram in “leadership studies”, 49 it took her 2 years longer to finally graduate. She 50 to become a senior management consultant in leadership training and development for the Pentagon.

I had been abroad a couple of times,but I could hardly claim to know my way around the continent. Moreover, my knowledge of foreign languages was limited to a little college French.I hesitated. How would I, unable to speak the language, totally unfamiliar with local geography or transportation systems, set up interviews and do research? It seemed impossible, and with considerable regret. I sat down to write a letter begging off. Halfway through, a thought ran through my mind: you can't learn if you don't try. So I accepted the assignment.There were some bad moments. But by the time I had finished the trip I was an experienced traveler. And ever since,I have never hesitated to head for even the most remote of places,without guides or even advanced bookings, confident that somehow I will manage.The point is that the new, the different, is almost scary by definition. But each time you try something, you learn, and as the learning piles up, the world opens to you.I've learned to ski at 40, and flown up the Rhine River in a balloon. And I know I'll go on doing such things. It's not because I'm braver or more daring than others. I'm not. But I'll accept anxiety as another name for challenge and I believe I can accomplish wonders.【1】The author accepted the assignment because _____A. he had never travelled abroad beforeB. he hardly knew any foreign languagesC. he was familiar with any other country in EuropeD. he would learn something new and different by trying【2】Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The author had been abroad only twice.B. The author thought the trip was hard but worthwhile.C. The author admitted that anything different was terrible.D. The author must be good at doing research and making interviews.【3】We can infer from the text that the author is _____.A.awkward B.generous C.stubborn D.brave【4】What's the best title of the text?A.An Interesting Trip Abroad B.My First Writing Assignment C.Ready to Try and Challenge D.How to Be Daring and Brave 2.Here are some of the world’s most impressive subwaysA.The Tokyo Metro and Toei Lines B.The Moscow MetroC.The London Metro D.The Hong Kong MTR【2】________ is done with the purpose of making money.A.The Tokyo Metro and Toei LinesB.The Moscow MetroC.The London MetroD.The Hong Kong MTR【3】We can learn from the passage that Shanghai Metro____________.A.carries the most people each dayB.is the world’s largestC.may be larger than the Chicago “L” in the futureD.is the busiest in the world【4】What do we know about the Hong Kong MTR?A.It is not owned by state.B.It has become the country’s largest subway since it opened.C.It carries the most people every day.D.It is the busiest system in the world.3.Traditional fairytales(童话) are being given up by parents because they are too scary for their young children, a study found.Research uncovered that one in five parents has got rid of old literature such as Snow White and the Seven Dwarves and Rapunzel in favor of more modern books.One third of parents said their children have been left in tears after hearing the gruesome details of Little Red Riding Hood.And nearly half of mothers and fathersrefuse to read Rumplesliltshin to their kids as the themes of the story are kidnapping and killing.Similarly, Goldilocks and the Three Bears was also a tale likely to be left on the book shelf as parents felt it forgives stealing.The survey of 2,000 adults was completed to mark the launch of the hit US drama GRIMM (格林童话剧) , which starts tonight at 9pm on Watch, and sees six drama series based on traditional fairytales.The survey found a quarter of parents questioned wouldn’t consider reading fairytales to their kids.And 52 percent of the parents said Cinderella didn’t send a good message to their children as it describes a young woman doing housework all day.Steve Hornsey, General Manager of Watch, said: "Bedtime stories are supposed to calm children down and send them off to sleep soundly.But as we see in GMMM, fair ytales can be dark and dramatic so it’s understandable that parents worry about reading them to young children.As adults we can see the innocence in fairytales, but a five - year - old child could take them too literally.Despite the dark nature of classic fairytales as we see in GRIMM, good will defeat evil and there is always a moral to the story."The study also found two thirds of mums and dads try to avoid stories which might give their children nightmares.The most popular book read at bedtime is now 'The Very Hungry Caterpillar' by Eric Carle.However half of parents said traditional tales are "more likely to have a strong moral message than a lot of modern kids' books, such as The Gruffato, The Hungary Caterpillar and the Mr. Men books.【1】Classical works for children are being avoided by parents they think .A.they contain unmoral themesB.they are terrifyingC.they encourage stealing, kidnapping and killingD.they are tired of answering questions【2】What does the underlined word "gruesome" mean?A.Very horrible B.Very amusingC.Very disappointing D.Very amazing【3】Which stories are the popular bedtime stories that parents like to tell their children now?A.Snow White and the Seven Dwarves and CinderellaB.The Very Hungry Caterpillar and Little Red Riding Hood.C.The Very Hungry Caterpillar andMr. MenD.Goldilocks and the Three Bears and Cinderella【4】According to Steve Hornsey , adults can see innocence in a fairy tale but a 5-year-old child might ______.A.think it is different from the realityB.dislike it because it is scaryC.believe exactly what the tale saysD.feel there is a moral to the story4.A farm planted levels or floors is called a vertical(垂直的)farm. A skyscraper type building can house a vertical farm. Since the garden is built upwards,rather than outwards,it requires much less space than a conventional farm.The world is quickly running out of room for conventional farming. Vertical farms could be a key to this situation. An 18-story vertical farm could feed as many as 50,000 people,all in an area which is the size of the average city block. Vertical farms in the city could cut down on transportation costs as well. Think about the amount of fuel it takes to transport food from farmland to city. The resources saved would be surprising. Besides saving travel time,food would be delivered in fresher condition and with less damage.There is a growing concern about the use of pesticides(杀虫剂) in agriculture today. But the vertical farm would be a greenhouse type environment, avoiding the need for a large number of pesticides. Vertical farms can be built in a contained space,therefore they are an excellent solution for living well in an environment far different from our own. Hydroponics(水耕法) could be a big part of vertical gardening. This would reduce the amount of soil needed to grow food. Of course,not all food does well with this type of planting,but there are many crops that actually seem to do better.In some climates,a lack of sunlight creates a short growing season. The solar power option may not work as well here. The addition of grow lights would make it possible to grow crops in vertical gardens in these areas .In other words,we could grow crops in areas where we never could before.Vertical farms may just be a concept for now,but they are a concept that will solve many of our problems in the future.【1】According to the passage, a vertical farm________.A.is mainly built outwardsB.is dependent on solar powerC.is planted on levels upwardsD.is only an environmental friendly farm【2】Compared to the conventional farm, the vertical farm can________.A.depend far less on sunlightB.greatly increase the use of soilC.help to protect the limited gardensD.reduce the use of harmful pesticides【3】It can be learned from the passage that vertical farms________.A.have been put into useB.only use hydroponics to grow foodC.need less room than conventional farmsD.may increase the transportation costs【4】What would be the best title for the passage?A.Vertical farms for our futureB.Ways to deal with future problemsC.Vertical farms and green skyscrapersD.Making Full Use of Our Limited Land5.More than a hundred adults and kids gather for the Star Party on a cold evening, chattering excitedly as they stand in the dark on a Virginia hillside. The odd thing is, no one has turned on a flashlight, and no streetlights or house lights wink(闪烁) on around them.These people have traveled to the countryside more than an hour from Washington, D. C., to get away from the glow of city lights. That's because they are attending a star party. Star parties are gatherings where professional and amateur astronomers set up their telescopes and invite people to come learn about the night sky. Getting away from light pollution, or artificial skylight from buildings for example, helps stargazers (看星星的人) see objects in the sky much better.At this star party, Sean O'Brien of the National Air and Space Museum’s Einstein Planetarium starts off by askingthe crowd to simply look up and take in all they can see. He points out plenty of things that can be seen without special equipment. Stars, satellites, and even the Andromeda galaxy(仙女座) can be found if you know where to look.After that, several dozen astronomers offer close-up views. Each has focused their telescope on a different part of the sky. As kids take a look, the owner gives a mini-lesson.O’Brien says you can have your own star party at home and learn a lot just by paying attention to what's happening up above. "Watch the sky as the seasons pass, and you will see that it changes," he says. "Or start with the moon. Notice when and where you are seeing it—maybe even in the early morning while you wait for the school bus. "【1】What was it special about the Star Party ?A.It was organized by the local authority.B.It was carried out without any lights.C.It was so cold that people chatted to cheer up.D.It was held in the town center of Virginia【2】According to the passage, who were involved in the activity ?a. some invited guestsb. some government officialsc. some experts in astronomyd. those who were interested in astronomye. students who were major in agricultureA.a, c, d B.a, d, e C.b, d, e D.c, d, e【3】From the passage, we can infer that if you want to see the objects in the sky .A.you'd better escape from pollution and sunlightB.you'd better follow Sean O'Brien's guidanceC.you'd better buy some advanced equipmentD.you'd better make use of your imagination【4】Which of the following can be best describe what O'Brien says about discovering the stars'?A.Roman is not built in a day.B.No pains, no gains.C.All roads lead to Roman.D.Time and tide wait for no man.6.In the professional world, oral communication skills in the workplace, which is the art of using speech to convey information, thoughts and feeling to others, is important for the success of any organizations.The 21st century has been considered to be an era of communication. The way we convey our thoughts is of great importance in building relationships. In the workplace, there are employees of diverse cultural and educational backgrounds. This makes team working on a difficult task, but with a clear understanding of the task to be achieved, all members work towards the same goal. Misunderstandings, conflicts and differences in opinions are easily managed when there is a clear flow of communication between team members.With proper communication, a close relationship and trust build among the employees, therefore promoting excellent working conditions. An atmosphere of support and cooperation is promoted by properly conveying expectations of the management team to the employees and vice – versa (相反的情况). Therefore, developing oral communication skills is important to success in life ahead.How to improve oral communication? In the business world, individuals are expected to be confident about their beliefs and ideas. Therefore, they must include words like “in my opinion”, “as far as I know”. While improving skills on oral communication, people in a workplace must learn the art of listening. In addition, one must also have a positive body language during conversations. A person with a smiling face and positive attitude can raise the spirits of everyone around him. When we’re talking to someone, we must give the other person an opportunity to talk as it improves our listening ability.Communication is an art and it can be improved by working on it constantly. Since it is not an overnight work,one needs to learn it by observing people who are good at it.四、书面表达昨天,我们班级就雷锋精神是否过时的话题展开了积极的讨论,有的同学认为雷锋精神在现在的商品化社会已经过时,人们应该去追逐更加实际的一些东西比如金钱,名声和舒适的生活。

Mrs. Slaton was a _37_, demanding teacher with high standards and a low _38_ for excuses. She refused to treat her students like _39_, instead expecting them to behave like the _40_ adults they would have to be to succeed in the real world after graduation. Jean was _41_ of her at first but grew to respect her firmness and fairness gradually.One day Mrs. Slaton gave the class a written _42_. "What do you think you’ll be doing 10 years from now?” Jean’s dream was to be a pilot like her father, but as the years went by, she had been beaten down by the _43_ and negative words she got whenever she talked about her career, so she unwillingly gave it up and wrote something else. Mrs. Slaton collected the papers and nothing more was said. Two weekslater, the teacher handed back the assignments, _44_ the students to face it down on the desk, and asked this question: "If you had enough finances and unlimited _45_, what would you do? Please write it on the _46_ of your previous assignment paper.”When the students stopped writing, the teacher asked, "How many of you wrote the same thing on _47_ sides of the paper?" Not one hand went up.Th e next thing that Mrs. Slaton said changed the course of Jean’s life. The teacher leaned forward _48_ her desk and said, "I have a little secret for you all. You do have _49_ abilities and talents. You do have access to the finest schools, and you can arrange plenty of finances if you want something _50_ enough. This is it! When you leave school, _51_ you don’t go for your dreams, no one will do it for you. You can have _52_ you want if you want it enough.”What her teacher said touched Jean so much!

Sometimes, something that is considered to be negative turns out to be an advantage on the job. Though he is only l8 years old and blind, Suleyman Gokyigit is among the top computer technicians and programmers at InteliData Technologies Corp., a large software company with several offices across the United States."After our company united with another one last October, two different computer networks were driving us crazy," recalls Douglas Braun, the InteliData president. "We couldn't even send e-mail to each other.” In three weeks Mr Gokyigit created the software needed to connect the two networks. "None of the company's 350 other employees could have done the job in three months," says Mr. Braun. " Suleyman can 'see' into the heart of the computer.”Mr. Gokyigfi's gift, as Mr. Braun calls it, is an unusual ability to form an idea of the inside of a machine. "The computer permits me to reach out into the world and do almost anything I want to do," says Mr. GokyigitThe young programmer is at home with hardware as well, thanks partly to a highly developed sense of touch. Mitzi Nowakowski, an office manager at InteliData, remembers how he easily disconnected and reconnected their computer systems during a move last year. "Through feel, Suleyman can find the position of connectors, pins and wires much faster than most other people with sight," he says.Much of the student programmer's speed comes from his ability not to be interrupted while at the computer. When typing, he listens carefully to the synthesizer (合成器). His long, thin fingers fly over the keyboard. "Nothing seems to shake his attention," says Mrs. Nowakowski, his boss.Mr. Gokyigit is the only company employee who is available 24 hours a day. "We consider him our top problem solver." says Mr. Braun.【1】According to Mr. Braun, Suleyman ________________.A.can work wonders on computerB.is the best technician in the worldC.has done a hard job in three monthsD.has united InteliData Technologies Corp. with another computer company【2】The underlined part "is at home with hardware" ( paragraph 4 ) means _________.A.is good at dealing with computer hardwareB.is fond of computer hardwareC.works with computer hardware at homeD.feels comfortable when working with computer hardware【3】Suleyman was quick while at the computer mostly because of ______.A.his blindness B.his attention on the synthesizerC.his long, thin fingers D.his ability not to be interrupted【4】What does the text mainly tell us?A.Computer technicians are more likely to be gifted.B.One's disadvantages may prove to be advantages.C.The disabled can also play an important role in society.D.Top computer scientists have unusual abilities to form ideas of computers.2. Filmmakers Michele dive into an eerie (怪诞的) world. The usually colorful corals are a ghostly white. Most of the fish, crabs, and other animals have disappeared. The reef is sick and dying.Coral reefs are often called “the rainforests of the sea” because of their abundance of life forms. A great diversity of animals finds food and shelter in every crack and crevice.Today’s reefs are about 10,000 years old. Found in sunny, shallow water in warm seas all over the world, reefs are made up of the hard shells of millions of corals. As corals live and die, they create a giant, rocky honeycomb. Only a thin top layer is living coral.A reef grows only about as fast as your fingernails—three-quarters of an inch a year. But coral reefs are huge, and in time a healthy reef can be thousands of miles long.Millions of people around the world rely on reef fish and other animals for food. And reefs provide protection from storms at sea. Without thousands of miles of reefs surrounding coastal areas, many beaches and even whole islands could be destroyed by the pounding of powerful ocean waves.“Let’s say a grazing animal like the parrot fish is overfished,” Michele explains. “Without them, the kind of algae (海藻) that the fish feed on could grow like weeds and take over the reef. The competition for space and sunlight could then starve the coral.”Nearly 27 percent of the world’s coral reefs have been lost or damaged. But there is hope. Many reefs around the world—including the Great Barrier Reef in Australia and the reefs off the Florida Keys in the United States—are now protected areas where scientists study how to keep reefs healthy. They determine how many and which kinds of fish can be taken for food without hurting the reef’s delicate balance.There is hope, too, that pe ople will learn to be good partners to the reefs. “We want our film to inspire people to help coral reefs,” says Michele. “For me, even though I may not go back to the South Pacific, just knowing the reefs are there and thriving brings a sense of contentment (满足) to my spirit.”【1】What is the main purpose of the author in writing the passage?A.To describe what coral reefs are.B.To tell people to protect coral reefs.C.To introduce a film to people.D.To ask people to visit coral reefs.【2】From the passage we can infer that .A.coral reefs grow very fastB.there are few huge coral reefsC.coral reefs appear mostly in deep waterD.it takes a long time to make a coral reef【3】By mentioning the parrot fish, Michel wants to tell us .A.coral reefs need sunlight to surviveB.the biggest enemies of reefs are weedsC.the parrot fish feed on a kind of algaeD.it is easy to destroy coral reefs【4】What is the author’s attitude towards the protection of reefs?A.Optimistic B.Disappointed.C.Uncertain.D.Pessimistic (悲观的).3.Thousands of people began pouring into Pennsylvania from other states. They wanted to buy lottery tickets. The tickets cost only $0.9 each. But that small spending could bring them a reward of $90 million. That was the second largest lottery jackpot(积累奖金)in history.More than 87 million tickets were bought for the Pennsylvania lottery drawing. Those who bought tickets had to choose seven numbers from 1 to 80. The chance of winning was one in 9.6 million. But that little chance certainly didn’t affect ticket sales. In the last few days before the drawing, tickets were selling at the unbelievable rate of 500 per second.Experts say many people buy lottery tickets because they just want to have a piece of the action. Others say the lottery is a stock market for poor people. It allows them to dream about wealth they’ll probably never have.But many people believe lotteries are no better than legalized (合法化的)gambling. Some critics note that most people who play are poor and may not be able to afford the tickets. There are also many addicts who take the game seriously. They may pour their life savings into lottery tickets. Some clubs have been formed to help them kick the habit.Politicians like lotteries because they provide money that would otherwise have to come from new taxes. The profits from lotteries are usually used to pay for education or programs for senior citizens. But critics say this arrangement just allows states to legalize vice(恶习), under the name of social progress.No matter whether you regard state lotteries right or not, you cannot refuse to accept their extreme popularity with many Americans.【1】The main idea of the passage is that __________.A.lotteries are of great benefit to everyone who buys themB.playing a lottery is just like investing in the stock marketC.a lot of people buy lottery tickets, but lotteries cause disagreementD.lotteries are just legalized vice【2】Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.Politicians like lotteries because they don’t have to pay e xtra tax.B.The popularity of lotteries in America actually is social progress.C.Some critics don’t like lotteries because many poor people waste their money on them.D.People love the lottery because it is a stock market.【3】In just one hour in the last few days, the Pennsylvania lottery sold tickets totaling_______.A.$1.62 million B.$90 million C.$9.6 million D.$87 million【4】People who are addicted to playing lotteries should _________.A.join a club B.kick the habitC.win the Pennsylvania D.save every cent4.Global emissions(排放)of carbon dioxide from fossil fuel burning jumped by the largest amount on record in 2010. Emissions rose5.9 percent in 2010, according to an analysis released on Sunday by the Global Carbon Project.Scientists said the increase was almost certainly the largest absolute jump in any year since the Industrial Revolution. The increase solidified a trend of ever-rising emissions that will make it difficult, if not impossible, to stop severe climate change in coming decades.The burning of coal represented more than half of the growth in emissions, the analysis found. In the United States, emissions dropped by a remarkable 7 percent in the year of 2009, but rose by over 4 percent in 2010, the new analysis shows.“Each year, emissions go up, and there’s another year of negotiations, another year of indecision,” said Glen P. Peters, a researcher at the Center for International Climate and Environmental Research. “There’s no evidence that this path we’ve been following in the last 10 years is going to change.”Scientists say the rapid growth of emissions is warming the Earth and putting human welfare at long-term risk. But their increasingly urgent pleas that society find a way to limit emissions have met sharp political resistance in many countries because doing so would involve higher energy costs.The new figures show a continuation of a trend in which developing countries have surpassed (超过) the wealthy countries in their overall greenhouse emissions. In 2010, the burning of fossil fuels and the production of cement (水泥) sent more than nine billion tons of carbon into the atmosphere, the new analysis found, with 57 percent of that coming from developing countries.On the surface, the figures of recent years suggest that wealthy countries have made headway in stabilizing their emissions. But Dr. Peters pointed out that, in a sense, the rich countries have simply exported some of them. The fast rise in developing countries has been caused to a large extent by the growth of energy-intensive manufact uring industries that make goods that rich countries import. “All that has changed is the location in which the emissions are being produced,” Dr. Peters said.Many countries, as part of their response to the economic crisis, invested billions in programs designed to make their energy systems greener. While it is possible, the new numbers suggest they have had little effect so far. 【1】Many governments in the world resist limiting emissions because .A.it is not the best way to solve such problemsB.they don’t realize the risks of carbon emissionsC.it would probably harm human welfare in the long runD.they are unwilling to accept higher energy costs【2】According to Glen P. Peters, We can learn that .A.the rapid growth of emissions contributes to potential risks for humansB.rich countries actually take more responsibility for the growth of emissionsC.human beings will follow the same path of negotiations in the next 10 yearsD.some countries negotiate together yearly whether to reduce the amounts of emissions【3】Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?A.Emissions in the United States dropped by about 7 percent in 2010.B.Developing countries will produce less emissions with economic development.C.There is a long way to go for many countries to limit the fast growth of emissions.D.Over 50 percent of the growth in emissions resulted from the burning of fossil fuels.【4】The text mainly talks about .A.an analysis released by the Global Carbon ProjectB.the record jump in carbon dioxide emissionsC.the possible climate change in future decadesD.the main harm of greenhouse gases5.Q My daughter is a junior in high school and has been on an individualized education program since fourth grade. She plans to go to college and intends to finish with a master’s degree. Her performance is fairly good, but test scores are very low. She has held many leadership and volunteer positions. We have been advised to have her write an essay about how her learning disability is a barrier that she has overcome. Will that help or hurt her chances for admission?—DeborahA First let me answer the question on low standardized test scores (ACT/ SAT). There are hundreds of colleges that are “test optional” which means students can choose not to release their test scores in the application process. Admission decisions at these colleges for students who do not submit their test scores are made based on other factors. A list of test optional colleges can be found at . It is important, however, to make sure that the college is the right fit academically regardless of the test optional policy.You also asked if your daughter should write about her disability and if this would hurt her chances of being admitted. Please know that colleges do not deny admission based on disability. “Disclosing” a learning disability in a personal statement within the college application can certainly help. By writing a personal statement, students can potentially demonstrate, for example, their understanding of the challenge they face. They mightalso demonstrate an improved grade trend in that subject area, and show interest in more complex courses in spite of this disability. More importantly, a student disclosure can show self-confidence, motivation and an understanding of the disability.—Ms. Kravis【1】What do we know about Deborah’s daughter?A.She is applying for a master’s degree.B.She is very active in her high school.C.Her disability prevents her studying well.D.She has difficulty overcoming her learning disability.【2】According to Ms. Kravis, what can Deborah do about her daughter’s low test scores?A.Keep them secret B.Explain the reasonsC.Stress other aspects D.Work hard to improve【3】What is Ms. Kravis’ attitude toward one’s declaring his/ her learning disability?A.Supportive B.Opposed C.Doubtful D.Unconcerned【4】According to the text, Ms. Kravis is probably .A.an editor B.a school leaderC.a psychological D.an educational expert6.阅读下面短文,根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。

Charlton Heston discovered his interest in acting while performing in plays at his high school. He later spent two years studying theater at Northwestern University in Evanston, Illinois. But he left college to join the Army Air Forces during World War Two.After the war, he found small roles in the theater as well as in television shows. His performance in a television version of the book Jane Eyre caught the attention of the Hollywood producer Cecil B. DeMille who later asked Heston to play the role of Moses in his movie The Ten Commandments which came out in 1956. This role made Heston famous and defined (明确) his career as a hero and leader. His face and body represented strength and heroism in many different roles. He played cowboys, soldiers and athletes.The 1959 movie Ben Hur made Charlton Heston an even bigger star.

The one most widely accepted today is based on the assumption that drama developed gradually from ceremonies. The argument for this view goes as follows.In the beginning, human beings viewed the natural forces of the world as unpredictable, and they sought through various means to control these unknown powers. Those measures which appeared to bring the desired results were then kept and repeated until they hardened into fixed ceremonies. Eventually stories arose which explained the mysteries of the ceremonies. As time passed, some of them were abandoned, but the stories, later called myths (神话), provided materials for art and dramaThose who believe that drama came out of ceremonies also argue that those ceremonies contained the seed of theater because music, dance, and masks were almost always used. In addition, there were performers, and, since considerable importance was attached to avoiding mistakes in the rules of ceremonies, religious leaders usually assumed that task. Wearing masks, they often impersonated (扮演) other people, animals, or supernatural beings, and performed the desired effect by gestures -- success in hunt or battle, the coming rain, the revival (复活) of the Sun -- as an actor might. Eventually such dramatic representations were separated from religious activities.Another theory finds out the theater came from the human Interest in storytelling. According to this view, tales (about the hunt, war, or other events) are gradually formed, at first through the use of impersonation, action, and dialogue by a speaker and then through the assumption of each of the roles by a different person A closely related theory about drama traces to those dances that are primarily rhythmical and gymnastic or that are imitations (模仿) of animal movements and sounds.【1】Which of the following is Not true according to the passage?A.Three theories about how drama came into being are mentioned.B.The majority of people believe drama came from ceremonies.C.Stories were made up to explain the mysteries of the ceremonies.D.Religious activities developed gradually from ceremonies.【2】We can infer from the passage that ______.A.all measures couldn't bring the desired resultsB.religious leaders usually didn't perform in the ceremoniesC.mistakes are unavoidable in the religious ceremoniesD.performers usually used languages to reach the desired results【3】The underlined part "traces to" in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to ______.A.dates back to B.is devoted to C.gives way to D.is familiar to【4】 The best title for the text would be ______.A.The Development of Drama B.The History of DramaC.The Origin of Drama D.The Popularity of Drama3.Some plants get so hungry they eat flies, and even small frogs. What's more amazing is that these plants occur naturally (in special environments) in every state. In fact, they're found on every continent except Antarctica.You've probably seen a Venus' flytrap -- a small plant, which grows 6 to 8 inches tall in a container. At the end of its stalks (茎) are leaves that act like traps (陷阱). Inside each trap is a lining of tiny hairs. When an insect lands on them, the traps suddenly shut. Over the course of a week or so, the plant feeds on its catch.The Venus' flytrap is just one of more than 500 species of meat-eating plants, says Barry Meyers-Rice, the editorof the International Carnivorous Plant Society's Newsletter. He states although you might have read some science-fiction stories, no meat-eating plant does any danger to humans.Barry says a plant is meat-eating, only if it does all four of the following: "attract, kill, digest, and absorb" some form of insects. Meat-eating plants look and act like other green plants -- well, most of the time.All green plants make sugar to produce food. What makes meat-eating plants different is their special leaves, which need insects for one reason: nitrogen (氮). Nitrogen is a nutrient that they can't obtain any other way. Why? Almost all green plants on our planet get nitrogen from the soil. Meat-eating plants can't. They live in places where nutrients are hard to get from the soil because of its acidity. So they've come to rely on getting nitrogen from insects and small animals. In fact, nutrient-rich soft is poisonous to meat-eating plants. Never fertilize (施肥) them! But don't worry, either, if they never seem to catch any insects. They can survive, but they'll grow very slowly.【1】According to the passage, a Venus' flytrap ______.A.is a small plant which grows in a containerB.is a kind of plant which gets hungry easilyC.can trap and feed on some form of insectsD.can only grow 6-8 inches tall【2】From the passage, we can infer that ______.A.meat-eating plants are found nowhere else except AntarcticaB.all green plants get nitrogen from the soilC.meat-eating plants endanger humans in science-fiction storiesD.the nutrient-poor soil is beneficial to meat-eating plants【3】Meat-eating plants grow very slowly, ______.A.so you'd better fertilize themB.probably because the supply of nitrogen is cut offC.simply because they can't absorb nitrogen from the soilD.and then they will die slowly【4】Which of the following is true?A.Meat-eating plants look and act like other green plants.B.It's hard to get nutrients in the soil when acidity is high.C.The Venus' flytrap eats flies to get nutrient from them.D.Green plants make sugar at night.4.Cleveland has won the distinction of being the worst city in the United States, according to a new survey. The city has high unemployment, terrible weather, heavy taxes, and ordinary sports teams, all of which have pushedit to the No. 1 position in the list."Cleveland was the only city that fell in the bottom half of rankings in all nine categories. And it has been entitled with a less than endearing nickname: the Mistake by the lake," Forbes said on its website,The economic downturn hit cities across the United States last year particularly in the mid-west section of the country. Crime and unemployment secured the No. 2 spot for Stockton, which held the top position in last year's ranking. Memphis got third place thanks to its violent crime rate and the number of officials who are guilty, while the poor auto industry drove the Michigan cities of Detroit and Flint into the top five."A lot of the cities that showed up on our list are going through hard times fight now, dealing with high unemployment, with declining producing bases. Many have experienced strong movement out of the city overthe last 20 and 30 years."Despite (尽管) its fine weather, Miami scored in the bottom 10 percent in commuting (上下班往返) time, and violent crime which sent it into sixth place."One of the biggest surprises is Miami. The good weather and no state income taxes blur some of the severe problems that Miami has related to crime as well as long commutes," Badenhausen added.Florida was followed in the poor ranking by St Louis, Buffalo, Canton, Ohio and Chicago, which has the country's highest sales tax at 10.25 percent. New York, the nation's biggest city, is rich in culture but its lengthy commutingtime and high income taxes pushed it into 16th place.【1】From the text we can learn that ______.A.Cleveland has been entitled a lovely nicknameB.the economic downturn hit cities in the mid-east sectionC.Miami scored in the bottom 10 percent in all nine categoriesD.commuting time in New York is too long【2】What information can be inferred according to the text?A.The number of officials who are guilty is large in Memphis.B.Stockton got second place in last year's ranking.C.High income taxes made New York get 16th place.D.Ohio has the country's highest sales tax.【3】The word "blur" underlined in the last paragraph but one probably means ______.A.make it possible B.make it unclear C.make if obvious D.make it important 【4】Which of the following is the correct ranking order?A.Cleveland, Detroit, Miami, Buffalo, Florida.B.Stockton, Miami, Flint, Florida, Canton.C.Cleveland, Stockton, Miami, Chicago, Florida.D.Stockton, Detroit, Miami, Florida, St Louis.5.Since the pre-historic times, man has had an urge to satisfy his needs. Be it hunger, shelter or search for a mate, he has always controlled the situations to his advantage. Probably this might be the reason why we humans are the most developed of all living species on the earth. As we climbed the steps of development, we somehow left behind common sense and logical thinking -- we forgot that we have stopped thinking ahead of time.If you are hungry, what do you do? Get a piece of your favorite meal and stay quiet. Just like your stomach, even your mind is hungry. But it never lets you know, because you keep it busy thinking about your dream lover, favorite star and many such things. So it silently began to care about your needs and never let itself grow. When mind looses its freedom to grow, creativity gets a full stop. This might be the reason why we all sometimes think "What happens next?", "Why can't I think?" "Why am I always given the difficult problems?" Well, this is the result of using our brain for thinking of not-so-worthy things.Hunger of the mind can be actually satisfied through reading. Now why reading and not watching TV? Because reading has been the most educative tool used by us right from the childhood. Just like that to develop other aspects of our life, we have to turn to reading. You have innumerable number of books in this world which will answer all your "How to?" questions. The interesting part of the book is stored in your mind as a seed. Now this seed is unknowingly used by you in your future to develop new ideas.

But recharging with a shallow (小睡) offers no such mental improvement, the research suggests. The results of the study added to the growing body of evidence that Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep is very important to the brain’s ability to form strong memories.An average night's rest includes four or five spells of REM sleep, but these bursts tend to be lengthier towards the end of the night. This means adults getting less than the recommended seven to eight hours a night -- and therefore inadequate REM sleep -- may be damaging their mind's ability to memorize: Although REM sleep is not classified as a type of deep sleep, it is only reached after the brain has passed through deep sleep stages.In the recent study, participants were shown groups of three words and asked to find another word that can be associated with all three words. They were tested once in the morning and then given the same task again in the afternoon. In between, some were allowed a nap with REM sleep, some a nap without REM sleep, while the others had a quiet rest period. The quiet rest and non-REM sleep groups didn't improve, but the REM sleep group improved on their morning performance by an average of almost 40 per cent. Dr Sara Mednick, a sleep researcher at the University of California who led the study, believes the formation of connections between previously unassociated information in the brain occurs during REM sleep.It is believed that sleep acts as a sort of mental filing system, enabling the brain to sort relevant information from useless information. This process may take place as memories are removed hem one art of the brain to others.五、书面表达在当今社会上,有些人认为:“九零后”的行为方式和价值观令人担忧。
