Practice saying “no”If you’re a people-pleaser you may find it hard to say “no” because you feel it comes across as cruel or uncaring. 9 Be clear, be direct, and use “I” statements.

In many cases, we must “see” part of the message that has not been written, or we must form an opinion ourselves.Reading is an essential part of your study of the English language.

Leave them a note under their door to introduce yourself. 22 It doesn’t have to cost you a fortune and opting for a potted plant or baked biscuits will do. These actions present excellent opportunities to connect with them.Be respectful of your neighbors. It’s in poor taste to have regular insensitive parties at your place causing disturbances. Before your party, it’s good practice to notify your neighbors. Besides, avoid chatting them up for hours on end, which may be inconvenient, especially if you don’t know their schedules. 23 When you borrow anything, return it in due time. If you accidentally break their things, replace them without being asked to.24 You could offer to babysit your neighbors’ kids, help with snow removals or even keep an eye on their home when they’re away. Such acts of reaching out to your neighbors make for stronger relationships.As Emma Seppälä put it, “social connectedness generates a positive feedback loop (圈) of social, emotional and physical well-being.” It feels so easy to just stay home without having to engage with your neighbors but connecting with them is worth the effort. 25A.Remember every small gesture counts.B.A crisis is a test of communication skills.C.It can actually boost your mood in the long run.D.Slipping it in their mailbox further solidifies friendship.E.It’s essential to ensure you maintain decent relationships with them.F.Alternatively, you can give them a gift while making yourself known to them.G.Only by establishing healthy boundaries will you achieve peaceful coexistence.(6)The rise of social media has revolutionized human connectivity, but its overuse can make people feel increasingly unhappy and isolated. 26One significant problem with frequent social media use is comparing ourselves to others. Many individuals experience “Facebook envy”. 27 Gradually, it may result in self-doubt. To boost self-confidence, it is essential to reduce time on others’profiles, and focus on self-reflection.Social media can also make it hard to form real friendships. Constant online interaction may make us feel lonely and left out when we see others having fun online. Stina Sanders, a former model, explained “When I see my friend’s photos of a party I didn’t go to, it can make me feel quite lonely and anxious”. 28 Quality sleep is essential for mental health, but excessive phone use before bedtime can severely disturb it. The anxiety and envy induced by social media content can keep our brains alert, making it challenging to fall asleep. 29 Avoiding the phone for at least 40 minutes to an hour before bed can improve sleep.“ 30 However, it can also change the way we recall our life. If we direct all of our attention trying to take the perfect photo, less will be available to enjoy other aspects of the experience in real time,” said Dr. Bono. To decrease these effects, practicing self-discipline and limiting phone use can help us to stay focused and clear-minded.If you feel like social media is beginning to affect you, why not consider allocating less social media time? The slight change can do you a lot of good.A.Regular use of Facebook can keep good relationships.B.Social media offers a convenient way to record memories.C.This can lead to feelings of dissatisfaction with themselves.D.Plus, the blue light that is given off by screens affects our sleep.E.Therefore, it’s important to develop genuine offline relationships.F.Social media can lead to serious physical and mental health issues.G.The reliance on it can negatively impact people’s mental health in the long run.(7)For most people traveling abroad, their first choice is probably to rush directly to tourist sights. For me.I find lots of joy in grocery shopping on holiday.As a vegetarian, finding restaurants that meet my needs is not always easy abroad. 31 The first thing I do, after dropping my bags off, is to go to a grocery store. That enables me to cook breakfast in the morning without walking around for hours trying to find “vegan breakfast” near me.The variety of foods attracts me every time I travel somewhere new. In Malta, I found the most delicious chocolate-filled cakes, the ones I would struggle to find even in the UK. 32 I was so delighted that I试卷第5页,共8页could enjoy such an unexpected treat. Another surprise was their selection of ice cream available even in the smallest grocery stores.33 Looking for smoked tofu and corn pancakes turns into quite a mission whenever I visit Cluj-Napoca in Romania. There is usually only one variety of smoked tofu, sold in a very small tub (食品盒) and only in the cafeteria section. 34 That is because they are never available at the smaller ones.Grocery shopping on holiday sounds unusual. But it means being involved in the day-to-day lives of a country’s citizens. I can pretend I am a local and put myself in their shoes. I can watch kids begging their parents for sweets, an international experience that needs no language, or watch couples pick up snacks and drinks for a party on a Friday night. 35A.I ended up eating these every day for breakfast.B.The challenge of finding food is interesting. too.C.The smoked product is unique and specially packed.D.So I always make sure to book a place with a kitchen.E.It’s an act of understanding people as much as of buying food.F.Corn pancakes always require a trip to the bigger grocery store.G.By wandering around in a new country, I start to see what they value.(8)Traveling allows you the opportunity to explore new places and unplug from daily routines and distractions. But let’s face it: Sometimes you want and need to stay connected when traveling abroad. Beyond scrolling through news and keeping up on social media, having a cellphone can be an essential tool to connect with other travelers and find cheap accommodation. 36 Here are tips to avoid the high international roaming (漫游) charges.Buy a local SIM Card. One of the most affordable ways to stay connected while traveling is to bring your phone and buy a prepaid SIM card at your destination. Before you travel, check with your provider to make sure your phone will work abroad. Swapping out the SIM card will give you a new international number. Make sure you keep your original SIM card in a safe place. 37Use Wi-Fi Only. If you check email or social media infrequently and don’t feel the need to constantly upload travel photos. waiting until you can connect to free wireless networks can save you a lot. 38 While you’re at it, switch off any apps that grab data. Look for restaurants, cafes or public spaces that offer free access to Wi-Fi.39 To save time and money, load up your phone in advance with travel and other apps, music, books, maps, travel guides and anything else you may need. Free Wi-Fi can be slow in many public areas. And you don’twant to get stuck waiting for a map or guide to load when you need it.Disconnect. While you can find plenty of uses for your phone while traveling, there are also good reasons to disconnect. Be engaged as you explore new places. 40 Technology is so ubiquitous (无所不在的) in work and personal lives that it can be hard to focus on a new culture if all you’re doing is staring down at your phone.A.Download Before You Go.B.Know your limits and try to overcome them.C.Make sure you put your phone in airplane mode.D.That card is associated with your new phone number.E.Sometimes you fail to wander in a totally new environment.F.Immerse yourself in the sights and sounds and enjoy the moment.G.Your phone is also a key connection to friends and family back home.(9)The smell of sweat, the noise of crashing weights and the muscular people in tank tops make the gym’s strength class or weight room seem forbidding, whether you’re a seasoned lifter or a complete beginner.41 Most benefits of strength training go beyond appearances. It subjects our bones to more pressure than our daily routines and increases muscle mass and bone density. Now that you know resistance training is important, here’s how to get started.Set a goal that is attainable and improves your daily life. 42 That might mean pressing weight overhead to ensure you can put your luggage in the airplane’s overhead bin or doing weighted squats (深蹲) for hiking preparation.The ideal way is to work one-on-one with an experienced certified trainer. 43 Look for one who not only guides you through workouts but also understands your unique journey and helps you reach your full potential.Private training with friends or joining in small group classes is also a cost-effective way to get individual attention. While you might tend to position yourself in the back corner of the room, I suggest heading to the front where a coach can monitor your form and offer feedback.44 If you favor strength-training apps, opt for one with video demonstrations. If none of these are appealing, start at home with basic-level bodyweight exercises like squats. 45 Grab a gallon water jug, hug it to your chest and dive into a squat. This not only adds resistance but challenges your core muscles to sustain stability.A.It’s like having a fitness associate.试卷第7页,共8页B.It’s worth pushing past that fear though.C.Take my word for it, no one else is looking at you.D.As you gain more confidence and strength, raise the bar.E.You’ll begin to see an impact far beyond your jeans fitting better.F.Think about which aspect of your life could be noticeably improved.G.Take videos of yourself performing those movements and watch them between sets.(10)A workable and pretty easy solution to improving your listening skills is that you begin to realize how much of your ability to be an effective listener is really about you, not the other person and how fascinating or boring they are. 46We tend to assume that listening is little more than showing up and paying attention to the other person.47 It’s worth noticing how we instinctively (本能地) listen in conversation and whether or not that given listening mode is really what’s called for.You need to identify your personal “hot spots”. 48 Whether it’s talking about climate change or Father’s Day, when you are not interested at all, you realize it is hard to concentrate. That kind of self-knowledge comes by having a scientific approach and observing yourself in action.49 For example, your surrounding environment, the topic at hand, or even particular company may affect your ability to listen. When you do this, you can more easily see what gets in the way of your ability to listen and understand. Thus that makes many of our work-related conversations much easier.In a performance review or heated debate, you can remind yourself if you’re having an emotional response to feedback and are having trouble hearing the other person out. Observing and learning from your behavior, and noticing how you are affected by your surroundings help you uncover your unique needs for doing your best listening. 50A.Considering external factors is also important.B.Besides, get curious about your conversation style.C.In fact, if they’re boring, in some ways that is on you.D.But it’s also deeply tied to paying attention to ourselves.E.Effective listening is about creating the space for others to express themselves.F.The topics are what uniquely set you off and emotionally inspire you in some ways.G.Those are going to help everything from meetings to client presentations run smoothly.参考答案:1.C 2.F 3.A 4.E 5.D【导语】这是一篇说明文。

高考英语阅读七选五(附答案)
一、考点精要【授之以渔】近年来,高考的阅读理解增加了七选五题型,试题模式为:给出一篇缺少5个句子的文章,对应有七个选项,要求同学们根据文章结构、内容,选出正确的句子,填入相应的空白处。
该题型主要考查考生对文章的整体内容和结构以及上下文逻辑意义的理解和掌握。
其命题体现了《新课标》“用英语获取、处理和运用信息的能力;逐步获取用英语思维的能力。
”的阅读学习和教学理念。
《考试说明》对该题型命题目的的表述“主要考查考生对文章的整体内容和结构以及上下文逻辑意义的理解和掌握。
”新题型七选五其实跟传统题型完形填空有相似之处,完形填空空出的是词,而七选五空出的是句子,但是他们的考察方式都是一样的,只要考生选择的答案能够使行文连贯,符合英文的语法以及习惯表达就行,因此,这两类题型在做题方法上有共通之处。
二、解题技巧【名师坐堂】从该题型给出的选项中我们可以发现一些特点:该题型选项大致可分为主旨概括句(文章整体内容)、过渡性句子(文章结构)和注释性句子(上下文逻辑意义)三类。
另外两个多余的干扰项也可以通过这三个特点来排除,例如主旨概括句要么过于宽泛要么以偏概全或偏离主题,过渡性句子不能反映文章的行文结构,注释性句子与上文脱节等。
根据这些,我们总结一些关于七选五的做题方法供大家参考。
1.先看选项。
跟完形填空不一样,七选五的答案选项较少,并且给出的都是句子,因此,我们可以通过句子的完整性或者句子后面的标点符号来判断该句在文章中的位置。
另外,通过阅读选项,有可能找出跟其他选项表达完全不同意思的句子,这样的话我们就可以直接将该选项排除。
2.通读全文对文章进行快速浏览,寻找主题句,抓住文章结构及文章的写作内容。
在阅读过程中,要注意文章的开始与结束段落,尤其是文章的首段及末段末句,因为“开门见山”与“结尾总结”的写作方式为常见的写作方式,首段的末句一般是全文的主题所在,说明本文将探讨哪些内容,并简要指出文章的写作思路,有时甚至会以提纲的形式进行呈现。

高考英语阅读七选五题目精选江南十校七选五Little Habits Make a Big DifferenceEverything around us is changing at amazing speed, it seems---but some things will always remain the same. 36 Some of our daily habits have the power to always give us happiness and lead toward success.

An early morning wake-up carries benefits including better planning and anticipation(预料)of problems, and more time to the things that make you happy.2. Happiness comes to those who are curious. 38 As long as you live, there will always be something to learn, and as long as you follow your heart and your passions, you won’t miss out on learning.3. Believe in yourself and all that you are. 39 Confidence is the key to success—the thing that lets you look at the past without regret, stay grounded in the present, and prepare for the future without fear.4. A day well spent gets you a good night sleep. Enough sleep ma kes you feel healthier and happier, and it’s more than lifting up your or removing exhaustion(疲惫). Adequate sleep is a key part of your health and inner happiness. 40 It doesn’t take a huge effort to make a significant change in your life---using one or two tiny habits may be all you need. Get started today and you’ll soon be experiencing the rewards.A. That’s why habits are so powerful.B. The ground work of all happiness is good health.C. Early to rise makes you healthy, wealthy, and wise.D. The habit of respect means treating everyone with kindness.E. Nothing will ever make you happier than having faith in yourself.F.

Out of the comer of your eye, you notice one girl sitting alone and not making eye contact with anyone. You think about asking her to be your partner, but you're afraid people will think you're uncool. You don't reach out. 36Empathy is being able to understand and actually feel what someone else is feeling. For some people, this comes naturally; for others, it takes a bit more work. 37 When you practice being empathetic, it gets easier to make kindness a part of your everyday life. If you can understand why people are feeling down, you'll want to help them. Here are some ideas that can help you.38 Someone not being able to find a group in class might not seem like a big deal—but part of being kind is noticing when someone seems sad, hurt or uncomfortable. After all, you have to notice how people feel in order to feel empathy and want to help them!When you're trying to make kindness second nature, really getting other people's feelings is important 39 Think about a time when you felt that way. Didn't you wish someone would reach out to you? If someone had offered you a few words of comfort, wouldn't it have made you feel so much happier?So, when you find people around you who are feeling down next time, do not hesitate to put yourself in their shoes and reach out to them with a kind gesture. 40 There is always a time when you expect others to relate to you and feel what you feel.A. And your kindness will be finally rewarded.B. But empathy is super important to being kind.C. Be open to learning more about what you don't understand.D. One way to practice empathy is to pay attention to the people around you.E. However, you never know showing empathy may make all the difference to her.F. You don't have to have a similar background to someone else to feel empathy for them.G. Whenever you find someone might be feeling lonely or sad, put yourself in his shoes.新课标全国卷Building Trust in a Relationship AgainTrust is a learned behavior that we gain from past experiences. 36 That is a risk.

高考英语阅读七选五题型专项练习10篇(附答案)
Several times each year the Queen gives afternoon tea parties at which guests are served tiny cakes filled with cream from her own cows. Cakes and sandwiches are brought in by footmen, yet you never see the Queen touch a thing. She simply sits beside a big silver plate, pouring cups of tea for everyone and carefully avoiding the cakes.At cocktail parties the Queen moves from group to group, chatting informally, and manages to make one glass of diet(节食)drink to last an entire evening.Tours abroad are difficult because hosts(主人)seem to believe the warmth of their welcome must be shown with wonderful state banquets(宴会). But the Queen has perfected the art of appearing to enjoy her meal without actually eating much.During one visit to the Pacific islands of Tonga, a specially-prepared dinner was arranged in a hut made of wood and bamboo leaves. Deep holes were dug in the ground, filled with hot stones and baby pigs, and the pigs were slowly baked over several days. The Queen looked uneasily at her plate when she discovered a whole roast pig was her serving.Then she became uneasy when a turkey, some meat, bananas and an apple were also carried in for each guest. So she depended on her old favorite trick of talking with her host. , King Tupou IV, carrying on a warm conversation. At the same time she pushed her food around her plate and only ate a piece of turkey and some fruit.Reporters traveling with her have noted that the Queen will sometimes seem so carried away by a foreign leader’s political chat that she simply never has time to finish a meal before it is time to get up and make her speech. She will lift her fork to swallow a mouthful, then put it down again to make another point, leaving almost all of her meal untouched.1. The main idea of the passage is about ____.A. the Queen’s favorite foodB. the Queen’s tours abroadC. how the Queen keeps her diet during her toursD. the Queen’s trouble with a foreign leader2. The Queen talked with her host and carried on conversation with him. The purpose of doing this is ____.A. to show her politenessB. not to eat muchC. to show her great interest in foodD. to hide her dislike to the food3. We can infer from the passage that tours are difficult for the Queen, because ____.A. she has to meet with so many important leadersB. she has to eat much oily foodC. she has so many reporters to travel with herD. hosts always present wonderful state banquets4. What probably is the Queen’s art of acting at state dinnersA. Appearing to enjoy her meal without actually eating much.B. Drinking Malvern water.C. Eating a piece of turkey and some fruit.D. Eating much without being noticed.【答案与解析】1. C解析:文章谈到了食品以及女王的“tours”,但主旨是女王如何“keep her diet”。

Since there are about a billion companies out there all ready to offer you public speaking training and courses, here are some things to look for when deciding the training that's right for you.·Focus on positivesAny training you do to become more effective at public speaking should always focus on the positive aspects of what you already do well. Nothing can hurt confidence more than being told that you aren't doing well. 52 , so good public speaking training should develop those instead of telling you what you shouldn't do. ·53If you find a public speaking course that looks as though it's going to give you lots of dos and don'ts, walk away!

Turn your back on too many rulesD. Check the rules about dos and don'tsE. Whatever the presentation, public speaking is toughF .The one thing you don't want is for them to fall asleepG.

Daydreamers have a bad reputation for being unaware of what’s happening around them. They can seem forgetful and clumsy.___71_____They annoy us because they seem to be ignoring us and missing the important things.But daydreamers are also responsible for some of the greatest ideas and achievements i n human history. ____72____ Can you imagine what kind of world we would have without such ideas and inventions?So how can you come up with brilliant daydreams and avoid falling over tree roots or otherwise looking like a fool?First, understand that some opportunities(机会) for daydreaming are better than others. Feeling safe and relaxed will help you to slip into daydreams.__73_ And if you want to improve your chances of having a creative idea while you’re daydreaming, try to do it while you are involved in another task—preferably something simple, like taking a shower or walking, or even making meaningless drawings.It’s also important to know how to avoid daydreams for those times when you really need to concentrate. “Mindfulness”, being focused, is a tool that some people use to avoid falling asleep.____74____Finally, you never know what wonderful idea might strike while your mind has moved slowly away.____75____Always remember that your best ideas might come when your head is actually in the clouds.A.

A key first step in bettering your evaluation ability is to look carefully at your sourcesof healthy information. Reasonable evaluation includes knowing where and how to fins relevant information, how to separate fact from opinions, how to recognize poor reasoning, and how to analyze information and the reliability of sources. 71 Go to the original source. Media reports often simplify the results of medical research. Find out for yourself what a study really reported, and determine whether it was based on good science. Think about the type of study. 72Watch for misleading language. Some studies will find that a behavior “contributes to” or is “associated with” an outcome; this does not mean that a certain course must lead to a certain result. 73 Carefully read or listen to information in order to fully understand it.Use your common sense. If a report seems too good to be true, probably it is. Be especially careful of information contained in advertisements. 74 Evaluate “scientific” statements carefully, and be aware of quackery(江湖骗术).75 Friends and family members can be a great source of ideas and inspiration, but each of us needs to find a healthy lifestyle that works for us.Developing the ability to evaluate reasonably and independently about the health problems will serve you well throughout your life.A. Make choice that are right for you.B. The goal of an ad is to sell you something.C. Be sure to work through the critical questions.D. And examine the findings of the original research.E. Distinguish between research reports and public health advice.F. Be aware that information may also be incorrectly explained by an author’s point of view.G. The following suggestions can help you sort through the health information you receive from common sources.Passage9(2013·高考北京卷)UrbanizationUntil relatively recently,the vast majority of human beings lived and died without ever seeing a city. The first city was probably founded no more than 5,500 years ago.____1_____In fact,nearly everyone lived on farms or in tiny rural (乡村的) villages. It was not until the 20th century that Great Britain became the first urban society in history—a society in which the majority of people live in cities and do not farm for a living.Britain was only the beginning. ___2____The process of urbanization—the migration (迁徙) of people from the countryside to the city—was the result of modernization,which has rapidly transformed how people live and where they live.

高考英语阅读专题练习七选五北京卷2013MuzakThe next time you go into a bank, a store, or a supermarket, stop and listen. What do you hear?71 It's similar to the music you listen to, but it's not exactly the same. That's because this music was especially designed to relax you, or to give you extra energy. Sometimes you don't even realize the music is playing, but you react to the music anyway.Quiet background music used to be called "elevator (电梯) music" because we often heard it in elevators. But lately we hear it in more and more places, and it has a new name "Muzak". About one-third of the people in America listen to "Muzak" everyday. The music plays for 15 minutes at a time, with short pauses in between. It is always more lively between ten and eleven in the morning, and between three and four in the afternoon, when people are more tired. 72If you listen to Muzak carefully, you will probably recognize the names of many of the songs. Some musicians or songwriters don't want their songs to be used as Muzak, but others are happy when their songs are chosen. Why? 73Music is often played in public places because it is designed to make people feel less lonely when they are in an airport or a hotel. It has been proven that Muzak does what it is designed to do. Tired office workers suddenly have more energy when they hear the pleasant sound of Muzak in the background. 74 Supermarket shoppers buy 38 percent more groceries.75 . They say it's boring to hear the same songs all the time. But other people enjoy hearing Muzak in public places. They say it helps them relax and feel calm.

Music is playing in the background.D. Factory workers produce 13 percent more.E. Muzak tends to help people understand music better.F. They get as much as $4 million a year if their songs are used.G. Muzak is played in most of the big supermarkets in the world.Public speaking and critical thinkingWhat is critical thinking? To a certain degree, it’s a matter of logic(逻辑)—of being able to spot weaknesses in other people’s argument and to avoid them in your own, it also includes related skills such as distinguishing fact from opinion and assessing the soundness of evidence.In the broad sense, critical thinking is focused, organized thinking—the ability to see clearly their relationships among ideas. 71 The greatest thinkers, scientists and inventors have often taken their information that was readily available and put it together differently to produce new ideas that, too, is critical thinking.72 As the class goes on, for example, you will probably spend a good deal of time organizing your speeches. While this may seem like a purely mechanical(机械的) exercise, it is closely connected with critical thinking. If the structure of your speech is loose and confused, chances are that your thinking is also disordered and confused. If, on the other hand, the structure is clear, there is a good chance your thinking is too. Organizing a speech is not a matter of arranging the ideas you already have. 73 What is true of organization is true of many aspects of public speaking. 74 As you work on expressing your ideas in clear, accurate language, you will improve your ability to think clearly and accurately. 75 As you learn to listen critically to speeches in class. You will be better able to assess the ideas of speakers in a variety of situations.If you take full advantage of your speech class, you will be able to develop your skills as critical thinker in many circumstances. This is one reason public speaking has been regarded as a vital part of education since the days of ancient Greece.A. Rather, it is an important part of shaping the ideas themselves.B. This may seem like a lot of time, but the rewards are well worth it.C. It may also help you to know that there is no such thing as a perfect speech.D. It has often been said that there are few new ideas in the world, only reorganized ideas.E. If you are wondering what this has to do with your public speaking class, the answer is quite a lot.F. The skills you learn in your speech class can help you become a more effective thinker in a number of ways.G. As you study the role of evidence and reasoning in speechmaking ,you will see how they can be used in other forms of communication as well.EmpathyLast year, researchers from the University of Michigan reported that empathy, the ability to understand other people, among college students had dropped sharply over the past 10 years. __71__ Today, people spend more time alone and are less likely to join groups and clubs.Jennifer Freed, a co-director of a teen program, has another explanation. Turn on the TV, and you’re showered with news and reality shows full of people fighting, competing, and generally treating one another with no respect. __72__There are good reasons not to follow those bad examples. Humans are socially related by nature. __73__ Researchers have also found that empathetic teenagers are more likely to have high self-respect. Besides, empathy can be a cure for loneliness, sadness, anxiety, and fear.Empathy is also an indication of a good leader. In fact, Freed says, many top companies report that empathy is one of the most important things they look for in new managers. __74__ “Academics are important. But if you don’t h ave emotional (情感的) intelligence, you won’t be as successful in work or in your love life,” she says.What’s the best way to up your EQ (情商)? For starters, let down your guard and really listen to others. __75__To really develop empathy, you’d better volunteer at a nursing home or a hospital, join a club or a team that has a diverse membership, have a “sharing circle” with your family, or spend time caring for pets at an animal shelter.A.Everyone is different, and levels of empathy differ from person to person.B.That could be because so many people have replaced face time with screen time, the researchers said.C.“One doesn’t develop empathy by having a lot of opinions and doing a lot of talking,” Freed says.D.Humans learn by example—and most of the examples on it are anything but empathetic.E.Empathy is a matter of learning how to understand someone else—both what they think and how they feel.F.Good social skills—including empathy—are a kind of “emotional intelligence” that will help you succeed in many areas of life.G.Having relationships with other people is an important part of being human—and having empathy is decisive to those relationships.北京卷2015 UrbanizationUntil relatively recently, the vast majority of human beings lived and died without ever seeing a city. The first city was probably founded no more than 5,500 years ago. 71_ . In fact, nearly everyone lived on farms or in tiny rural (乡村的) villages. It was not until the 20th century that Great Britain became the first urban society in history— a society in which the majority of people live in cities and do not farm for a living.Britain was only the beginning. 72_ .The process of urbanization— the migration (迁移) of people from the countryside to the city— was the result of modernization, which has rapidly transformed how people live and where they live.In 1990, fewer than 40% of Americans lived in urban areas. Today, over 82% of Americans live in cities. Only about 2% live on farms. 73 .Large cities were impossible until agriculture became industrialized. Even in advanced agricultural societies. It took about ninety-five people on farms to feed five people in cities. _74 . Until modern times, those living in cities were mainly the ruling elite(精英) and the servants, laborers and professionals who served them. Cities survived by taxing farmers and were limited in size by the amount of surplus food that the rural population produced and by the ability to move this surplus from farm to city.Over the past two centuries, the Industrial Revolution has broken this balance between the city and the country. 75_ .

A key first step in bettering your evaluation ability is to look carefully at your sources of healthy information. Reasonable evaluation includes knowing where and how to finds relevant information, how to separate fact from opinions, how to recognize poor reasoning, and how to analyze information and the reliability of sources. 71Go to the original source. Media reports often simplify the results of medical research. Find out for yourself what a study really reported, and determine whether it was based on good science. Think about the type of study. 72Watch for misleading language. Some studies will find that a behavior “contributes to” or is “associated with” an outcome; this does not mean that a certain course must lead to a certain result. 73 Carefully read or listen to information in order to fully understand it.Use your common sense. If a report seems too good to be true, probably it is. Be especially careful of information contained in advertisements. 74Evaluate “scientific” statements carefully, and be aware of quackery(江湖骗术).75Friends and family members can be a great source of ideas and inspiration, but each of us needs to find a healthy lifestyle that works for us.Developing the ability to evaluate reasonably and independently about the health problems will serve you well throughout your life.A. Make choice that are right for you.B. The goal of an ad is to sell you something.C. Be sure to work through the critical questions.D. And examine the findings of the original research.E. Distinguish between research reports and public health advice.F. Be aware that information may also be incorrectly explained by an author’s point of view.G. The following suggestions can help you sort through the health information you receive from common sources.2014新课标II全国卷Tips for Cooking on a Tight Schedule。
高中英语七选五(5篇)(含答案)
AEveryone knows that fish is good for health. 36 But it seems that many people don’t cook fish at hom e. Americans eat only about fifteen pounds of fish per person per year, but we eat twice as much fish in restaurants as at home. Buying, storing, and cooking fish isn’t difficult.37 This text is about how to buy and cook fish in an easy way.38 Fresh fish should smell sweet: you should feel that you’re standing at the ocean’s edge. Any fishy or strong smell means the fish isn’t fresh. 39 When you have bought a fish and arrive home, you’d better store the fish in the refrigerator if you don’t cook it immediately, but fresh fish should be stored in your fridge for only a day or two. Frozen fish isn’t as tasty as the fresh one.There are many common methods used to cook fish. 40 First, clean it and season it with your choice of spices (调料). Put the whole fish on a plate and steam it in a steam pot for 8 to 10 minutes if it weighs about one pound. (A larger one will take more time.) Then, it’s ready to serve.A. Do not buy it.B. The easiest is to steam it.C. This is how you can do it.D. It just requires a little knowledge.E. The fish will go bad within hours.F. When buying fish, you should first smell it.G. The fats in fish are thought to help prevent heart disease.36. G 37. D 38. F 39.A 40.BBColor is fundamental in home design——something you’ll always have in every room.

近5年省高考英语真题.七选五汇编一.【202001月】Let’s take a minute to think about the water we use. The human body is 60% water and we need to drink lots of water to be healthy. When we are thirsty we just go to the kitchen and fill a glass with clean water.31 For example, farmers, who produce the food we eat, use water to make the plants grow. When we turn on a light orswitch on a TV or a computer we use energy and we need water to produce this energy.The truth is that we are lucky enough to have clean water whenever we want, but this is not the case for many people around the world. 32 That’s around one in 10 people in the world. If we drink dirty water, we can catch diseases from the bacteria and become ill. Every year over 500,000 children die from diarrhoea (腹泻) from dirty water. That’s around 1,400 children every day! Also, in some countries children walk many kilometers every day to get water. 33 Therefore, they don’t have time to learn how to read or write and don’t get an education.34 On this day every year, countries around the world hold events to educate people about the problems of dirty water and that clean water is something that everyone should have around the world. At one school in the UK, children between the ages of 10 and 15 walk 6km with six litres of water. 35 People give them money to do this and all the money helps get clean water to as many people as possible around the world.A.We use water indirectly too.B.Every system in our body depends on water to function.C.It is to inspire people to learn more about water-related problems.D. If children walk many hours a day to get water, they can’t go to school.E.Did you know that around 750 million people do not have clean water to drink?F. In 1993 the United Nations decided that March 22nd is the World Day for Water.G.In this way, they know how it feels to walk a long distance carrying heavy bottles.二.【20196月】Rock music consists of many different styles. Even though there is a common spirit among all music groups, they make very different music. 31 At that time the Beatles entered the world of music from Liverpool.After they were given an invitation to appear live on BBC, the Beatles quickly became famous in Britain with nationwide tours. By mid-1963, the Beatles had been extremely popular in England.32 They held large concerts and performed at clubs. They became the hottest thing on the pop music scene in England. They began as a modestly successful musician group and ended the year as show business legends(传说). John Lennon and Paul McCartney were named composers of the year.33 They were not sure how the Americans would react to the new type of music. Beatlemania hit New York on February 7, 1964. Hundreds of fans jammed the airport to greet them.34 The concert was broadcast live and attracted the largest one night audience in the history of television up to that time. The Beatles were described as a British invasion(入侵)by local and nationwide newspapers at that time. Their victory in America was still remembered as a major turning point in the history of rock and roll. Thanks to the Beatles, a lot of opportunities were opened up to new faces on the market. 35A. They decided on a tour to the United States in 1964.B. Even their hairstyles became major trends at that time.C. Rock music developed in the 1950s and the early 1960s.D. However, their songs changed the lives of generations to come.E. Many rock bands were able to follow in the footsteps of the Beatles.F. They appeared in the films A Hard Day's Night(1964)and Help!(1965).G. They performed their first concert in America at CBS television's 53rd street studio.三.【201811月】Some people are so rude. Who sends an or a text message that just says "Thank you”? Who leaves a voice mail message rather than texts you?Who asks for a fact easily found on the Internet? ___31_______Maybe I'm the rude one for not appreciating life's little courtesies(礼节). But many social norms(规)just don't make sense to people drowning in digital communication.Take the thank-you note. Daniel Post Senning, a coauthor of Emily Post's Etiquette, asked, “At what point does showing appreciation outweigh the cost?"32 Think of how long it takes to listen to one of those messages.In texts, you don't have to declare who you are or even say hello. E-mail, too, is slower than a text. The worst are those who leave a voice mail and then send an message to tell you they left a voice mail.This isn't the first time technology has changed our manners. 33 Alexander Graham Bell, the inventor, suggested that people say, "Ahoy!” Finally,hello won out, and the victory sped up the greeting's use in face-to-face communications.In the age of the smart phone, there is no reason to ask once-acceptable questions about: the weather forecast, a business's phone number, or directions to a house, a restaurant, or an office, which can be easily found on a digital map. 34 And when you answer, they respond with a thank-you . How to handle these differing standards? Easy: Consider your audience. Some people, especially older ones ,appreciate a thank-you message. 35 In traditional societies, the young learn from the old.But in modem societies, the old can also learn from the young. Here's hoping that politeness never goes out of fashion but that time-wasting forms of communication do.A.Then there is voice mail.B.Others,like me,want no reply.C.But people still ask these things.D.Don't these people realize that they're wasting your time?E.Won't new technology bring about changes in our daily life?F. Face-to-face communication makes comprehension much easier.G.When the telephone was invented,people didn't know how to greet a caller.Moving into a new home in a new neighborhood is an exciting experience. Of course, you want to make sure that you become an accepted and valuable part of your new neighborhood. The easiest way to accomplish this is to make sure you conduct yourself as a good neighbor should.(31)___Perhaps one of the most important things you can do as a good neighbor is to keep your property(房产) neat, clean, and in good repair. (32)____ By choosing to keep the outside of the home in great shape, you will help to improve the look and feel of the area.Second, take the overall appearance of the neighborhood seriously. When going for a walk, take along a small garbage bag. (33)____ This small act will let your neighbors know that you care about the area.(34)____ If a neighbor is going to be out of town, offer to collect mail and newspapers. If a neighbor suffers an illness, offer to do the grocery shopping. Let them know that you are there to help in any way that is acceptable, while still respecting the privacy of your neighbor.(35)____ By following the basic rules of respecting others, taking care of what belongs to you, and taking pride in the appearance of the neighborhood in general, you will quickly become a good neighbor that everyone appreciates.A. In general, keep an eye on their property while they are gone.B. A good neighbor is also one who likes to help out in small ways.C. Being a good neighbor is more or less about considerate behavior.D. Sometimes neighbors may go to the supermarket together to do shopping.E. Should you come across waste paper thrown out of a passing car, pick it up.F. People tend to take pride in keeping everything in their street fresh and inviting.G. Here are a few tips to help you win over everyone in the neighborhood quickly.How to Remember What You ReadReading is i mportant. But the next step is making sure that you remember what you’ve read! 31 You may have just read the text, but the ideas, concepts and images(形象)may fly right out of your head. Here are a few tricks for remembering what you read.● 32If the plot, characters, or word usage is confusing for you, likely won’t be able to remember what you read. It’s a bit like reading a foreign language. If you don’t understand what you’re reading, how would you remember it? But there are a few things you can do… Use a dictionary: look up the difficult words.●Are you connected?Does a character remind you of friend? Don’t the setting make you want to visit the place? Does the look inspire you, and make you want to read more? With some books, you may feel a connection right away. 33 How willing are you to make the connections happen?●Read it; hear it; be it!Read the lines. Then, speak them out loud. And, put some character into the words. When he was writing his novels, Charles Dickens would act out the part s of the characters, He’d make faces in the mirror, and change his voice for each character. 34●How often do you read?If you read frequently, you’ll likely have and easier time with remembering what you’re reading(and what you’ve read).35 As you m ake reading a regular part of your life, you’ll make more connections, stay more focused and understand the text better. You’ll learn to enjoy literature—as you remember what you read!A. Are you confused?B. Practice makes perfect.C. What’s your motivati on?D. Memory is sometimes a tricky thing.E. Marking helps you remember what you read.F. But other books require a bit more work on your partG. You can do the same thing when you are reading the text!How to Do Man-on-the-Street InterviewsThe man-on-the-street interview is an interview in which a reporter hits the streets with a cameraman to interview people on the sport. 31__________ But with these tips, your firstman-on-the-street interview experience can be easy.● When your boss or professor sends you out to do man-on-the-street interviews for a story, think about the topic and develop a list of about ten general questions relating to it. For example, if your topic is about environmental problems in America, you might ask, “Why do you t hink environmental protection is important in America?” 32_________● Hit the streets with confidence. 33________ Say, “Excuse me, I work for XYZ News, and I was wondering if you could share your opinion about this topic.” This is a quick way to get people to warm up to you.● Move on to the next person if someone tells you she is not interested in talking on camera. Don’t get discouraged.● 34__________Each interview that you get on the street shouldn’t be longer than ten minutes. As soon as you get the answer you need, move on to the next person. Make sure that as you go from interview to interview, you are getting a variety of answers. If everyone is giving you the same answer, you won’t be able to use it. A safe number of interviews to conduct is about s ix to ten. 35________● If your news station or school requires interviewees to sign release forms to appear on the air, don’t leave work without them.A. Limit your time.B. As you approach people, be polite.C. If you don’t own a camera, you can buy one.D. For new reporters, this can seem like a challenging task.E. To get good and useful results, ask them the same question.F. That number of interviews should give you all the answers you need.G. With a question like this, you will get more than a “Yes” or “No” reply.A. Get involved in student activitiesB. Your voice is actually super importantC. There is a significant increase of opportunitiesD. Stay in active communication with your friendsE. Get smart about the people who you spend your time withF. Your major does not matter as much in your first of collegeFive Things Nobody Told Me about CollegeAs I type this , I am in my university dorm room. A year ago, when I was awaiting to hear the results of my college applications, I often went to websites for some type of insider look on what college would be like. However, there’s only so much that prep books, websites, and older friends can teach. Here are the top 5things nobody told me about college:61Nobody entering a university knows exactly what they want to study. If they tell you otherwise, they’re lying and will probably change what they want to purse within the first quarter of attendance . During my first quarter at University of California, Riverside (UCR),I thought that I wanted to study Political Science with its focus on International Affairs, so that’s what I applied for. However, once I worked with statewide and local government, I realized that a better fit for me would be Public Policy, and now I am in the process of changing my area.62In college, there are so many good chances for you to meet your expectations. However, there is a very important difference between wanting to do something and applying for something. In order for you to take advantage of the conferences, research, internships ,and fellowships that your university offers, apply! Step into your academic advisor’s office, introduce yourself, and begin making the valuable connections that are necessary to help during the rest of your college career. Great things happen when you step out of your comfort zone, and you would be surprised on how many chances exist if you just ask.63College is where you meet your bridesmaids, neighbors, and potential bosses. The relationships you develop now will probably be linked to the ones you value later, so he wise about the people who you invest yourself in. You are only one person, and you do not have time to waste on people whowho challenge you to be better while loving you for who you are, and be patient to the people who are the complete opposite of that description.64As a first-year, I was afraid to make any noise towards campus issues that I noticed. It was not until I became involved in student government that I gained the confidence to handle projects that I created with the help of ASUCR Office of the President. During my first quarter, I spoke directly to the Chancellor, asking him for support towards my initiatives, met with the Vive Chancellors, and cooperated with my teaching assistances to begin my undergraduate research protect. Nothing good will happen when you are silent.65At my high school, there were about only four active club and organizations that students could be a part of. Imagine my surprise when I stepped foot onto UCR’s capus, where over 400 organizations exist, ranging from political organizations to karate club. You are not paying all or your tuition(学费)to merely go to class, study, pass tests and graduate. Make something worthy out of your experience. Create that you will want to tell your grandchildren one day. It all begins here, by signing up to join an organization.。

Is Fresh Air Really Good for You?We all grew up hearing people tell us to “go out and get some fresh air.” 36 According to recent studies, the answer is a big YES, if the air quality in your camping area is good.37 If the air you’re breathing is clean — which it would be if you’re away from the smog of cities — then the air is filled with life-giving, energizing oxygen. If you exercise out of doors, your body will learn to breathe more deeply, allowing even more oxygen to get to your muscles (肌肉) and your brain.Recently, people have begun studying the connection between the natural world and healing (治愈). 38 In these places patients can go to be near nature during their recovery. It turns out that just looking at green, growing things can reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and put people into a better mood (情绪). Greenery is good for us. Hospital patients who see tree branches out their window are likely to recover at a faster rate than patients who see buildings or sky instead.39 It gives us a great feeling of peace.40 While the sun’s rays can age and harm our skin, they also give us beneficial Vitamin D. To make sure you get enough Vitamin D — but still protect your skin — put on sunscreen right as you head outside. It takes sunscreen about fifteen minutes to start working, and that’s plenty of time for your skin to absorb a day’s worth of Vitamin D.A. Fresh air cleans our lungs.B. So what are you waiting for?C. Being in nature refreshes us.D. Another side benefit of getting fresh air is sunlight.E. But is fresh air really as good for you as your mother always said?F. Just as importantly, we tend to associate fresh air with health care.G.

4. 词语复现显神功作者或说话人在谈论某个话题或主题时,与主题相关的词语必定会以原词、同义词或近义词等形式在上下文中重复出现,这种现象叫词语复现。
同一个词的重复出现叫原词复现;以同义词的形式重复出现,叫同义复现;以近义词或近义表达(意思相近,表达方式不同)的形式重复出现,叫近义复现;以词义相同而词性不同的形式重复出现,叫同根复现。
还有上义词与下义词的复现(adult是teacher,parent的上义词,而teacher,parent就是adult的下义词)。
5. 代词逻辑亦管用我们知道,七选五就是考查上下文之间的衔接,而代词是语篇衔接的重要手段之一,故解题中要善于利用这一衔接手段。
如:Try to solve the problem. After you’re calmand you have support from adults and friends, it’s time to get down tobusiness. 74 Even if you can’t solve it all, you can solve a piece of it.D. Ah, it feels so good when the stress isgone.E. You need to figure out what the problemis.F. And don’t forget about your friends.解析:本段主题句是“Tryto solve the problem”,空后句又有solve it,其中it指什么?当然是theproblem,因此,前句中一定会出现problem一词,七个选项中只有E项符合。
根据空格句与上下句之间的逻辑关系来解题,如解释关系(对前句或对主题的进一步解释)、并列关系、转折关系、因果关系、递进关系等。
6. 篇章需要基本功有的题利用文章或段落的“总—分”结构关系来解,也很管用,但需要以下基本功:懂得整篇文章的基本结构或段落的语篇结构通常是主题句(总)+支撑句(分)(分述主题的具体内容/说明原因/举例证明等)。
如:From my experience, there are three main reasons why people don’t cook more often: ability, money, andtime. 36 Money isa topic I’ll save for another day. So today I want to give you some wisdom about how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen.A. Try new things.B. Ability is easily improved.C. Make three or four instead.解析:空前主题句中提到ability,money, time三个主要原因,空后提到了money与time, 所以这里应是谈ability, 故选B项。
高考英语七选五解题10大技巧技巧1:从细节逻辑上判断---因果关系在做题时最重要的是要读懂空白前后的句子,明白这几句话的确切意思,然后根据意思的连贯性或逻辑性从选项中选取正确答案。
在读懂意思的基础上,判断它们之间的关系来进一步确认答案。
因果关系主要指前后的句子有着原因和结果之间的关系,这种关系往往说明了前因后果或者前果后因等情况。
表示因果关系的连词有as a result结果,thus/therefore因此,so (such)...如此------以至于等。
技巧2:从细节逻辑上判断---转折关系转折关系主要指英语行文中后句对前句构成逆转逻辑关系。
如果空格前后两句话之间是逻辑上的逆转,则空格处很有可能是个转折逻辑的句子。
表示转折关系的连接词有:However然而, nevertheless仍然,然而,不过, nonetheless尽管如此,依然,然而, still还;然而, though可是,不过,然而, yet然而, in spite of不顾,不管, at any rate无论如何,至少, in any case无论如何,不管怎样, whoever无论是谁, whatever无论什么,on the contrary正相反, in contrast与此相反, 相比之下, by contrast相反, 相比之下, in comparison比较起来,比较地, by comparison相比之下, conversely相反(地), otherwise否则;除此以外,not---but不是-----而是,as well也等。
技巧3:从细节逻辑上判断---例证关系前后句的某句是为了证明另一句而举的例子。
例证的形式多样,但就其本质而言无非是思维上的形象(例子、类比等)和抽象(观点)的辩证关系,用到的思维过程无非就是基本的归纳(从例子到观点)和推理(从观点到例子)。
技巧4:从细节逻辑上判断---递进关系递进关系主要指英语行文中后句对前句是一种顺承逻辑关系。
如果空格前后两句话之间是逻辑上的层进关系,则空格处很有可能是个递进的句子。
表示递进关系的连词有:also也, 而且, further另外(的);, furthermore而且,此外, likewise同样地,照样地;也,又, similarly 相似地,类似地, moreover而且再者,此外, in addition另外,加之, what’s more更重要的是, too也,还, either也, neither两者都不, not only…but also不但…而且等。
技巧5:从细节逻辑上判断---平列关系表示列举关系的有:first首先, 第一, second第二, third第三…; firstly 第一, 首先, secondly第二(点);其次, thirdly第三…; first第一, next 其次, then那么, 然后…; in the first place第一,首先, in the second place第二, 其次…; for one thing首先,一则, for another thing 其次…; to begin with首先,第一, to conclude首先,第一等。
技巧6:从词汇线索上判断---代词英语表达中的代词出现的频率极高,代词的作用是指代前面提及的名词或形容词概念,巧妙利用这样的指代关系和根据代词的单复数差异可以准确而快速地解题。
技巧7:从词汇线索上判断---同义词/近义词英语前言后语之间往往有同义词、近义词、近义表达语甚至相同词汇的重复使用,这是我们解题的一个很好的判断线索。
其实就其本质而言,上文讲的代词和下文将涉及的上下义词和同一范畴词都是特殊的同义/近义词。
技巧8:从词汇线索上判断---上下义词/同一范畴词上下义词和同一范畴词就是前者包含了后者,或可以说后者是前者的一个子集。
利用前后句中这样的特殊的同义关系常常可以很轻松地解题。
技巧9:从试题位置上判断---问题在段首假如问题出现在段首,它通常是段落主题句。
认真阅读后文内容,根据段落一致性原则,查找同义词或其他相关的词,推断出主题句。
另外着重阅读后文第一两句,锁定线索信号词,然后在选项中查找相关特征词。
通常正确答案的最后一句与空白后的第一句在意思上是紧密衔接的,因此这两句间会有某种的衔接手段,尤其当选项是几句话时。
技巧10:从试题位置上判断---问题在段尾所选答案是引出下一段的内容。
如果在选项中找不出与前文之间的关联,此时可考虑与下一段开头是否有一定的衔接。
认真阅读下一段开头几句,看是否与选项的最后一句紧密连接起来。
分析与前文是转折或是对比关系。
此时要注意在选项中查找表示转折、对比的关联词,同时注意选项中所讲内容是否与前文在同一主题上形成对立、对比关系。
如果第一段的段尾是空白,要认真阅读,看此处是细节还是主题。
通常文章第一段要提出文章的主题,如果在段尾提出主题,会用一些信号词如转折词引出来,正确答案中应有这样的特征词。
段尾通常是结论、概括性语句。
注意在选项中查找表示结果、结论、总结等的信号词,如therefore, as a result, thus, hence, in short, to sum up, to conclude, in a word等词语,选项中也可发现前文的同义词句。
