2019丰台二模It was a bright sunny day, last Saturday. After getting up, I started to jog in the park near my home. I was so happy breathing the fresh air in the warm sunshine. When I came near the lake, I saw a kid fishing with his dad.At first I didn’t notice the sign saying “No Fishing” because it’s too small to spot. But having known that fishing is forbidden here, I went up to stop them. They hadn’t seen the sign either until I showed them. The dad felt so sorry about what they had done and packed up all the gears immediately. Then we waved goodbye to each other.When I was about to continue my jogging, a worry struck me. What if other people didn’t notice the small sign? I went to the Park Service to suggest making the sign larger and more obvious. The officer was so glad to take my advice and I felt very excited.What a good Saturday!2019西城二模Before graduation, in order to express our sincere gratitude to our beloved teachers and the hard-working staff, we prepared special gifts and “thank you” notes.Last Monday after class, our monitor came up with an idea to extend our appreciation to the school faculty. After much thought, we decided to present them with cups featuring our class picture as well as write them “thank you” notes.Soon afterwards, we began our project. In the following two days, some of us wrote the notes conveying our heartfelt appreciation while others carefully folded the finished notes into the shape of a heart. We also logged onto a self-customization cup website in the school’s computer room, chose our best class photos to customize the cups and made the purchases.Last Friday, we received the delivery. With excitement, we got into small groups and presented our special gifts to all the dedicated teachers and staff. Holding the gifts, they all expressed their thanks and best wishes to us. Every day for the past three years, we have enjoyed interesting lessons, delicious meals, and a clean and safe campus. It is their hard work and devotion that has helped us become responsible people.Graduation will come and go, but the love for our school will last a lifetime.2019海淀二模Last week, our class participated in an extracurricular activity on paper culture, which was really an unforgettable experience.On Monday morning, some classmates and I noticed an announcement on the school bulletin board, saying an activity on paper culture would be held in the Capital Museum. Attracted by it, we signed up without any hesitation.The activity started on Friday with a visit to the exhibition in the museum. Following the guide, we learned about the origin and development of paper and the detailed process of papermaking. What especially impressed us was how paper contributed to the preservation and spread of human civilization.After that, we had some hands-on experience in making paper handicrafts. Divided into different groups, we learned with great enthusiasm. With the help of a master working there, thegroup of boys managed to create some paper cuts and lanterns while the girls tried different folding patterns, such as hearts, stars and birds. Not until then did we fully realize that paper can be made into so many objects in our life, either decorative or functional.Before we left, we took a group photo to record the day. With the little pieces of work in our hands, we smiled heartily to the camera. At that moment, I came to know that the wisdom of our ancestors shown in paper culture should definitely be honored, recorded and passed down.2019东城二模1.了解活动2.种植花草3.观看宣传4.坚持照料One afternoon in early spring, I caught sight of a poster in my community which read “Green Community, Beautiful Home”. Having listened to the social workers’ introduction, I found the activity quite meaningful and decided to take part.That Sunday, most of my neighbours gathered for the start of the activity. Since my mom was fond of flowers, we chose Chinese roses. Together with my parents, I carefully planted the flower seedlings and gently watered them.A few days later, I was surprised to see our photos of planting flowers posted on the bulletin board in our community. My neighbours and I recalled the activity and talked a lot about how to take care of the plants.Now looking after plants has become part of my life. This way, I can feel the simple pleasure of life and harvest a sense of achievement. Seeing the seedlings growing little by little, I can’t help picturing how beautiful our neighbourhood will be when all the flowers come out.2019朝阳二模A Significant EventLast month, our school organized a knowledge contest entitled “Motherland in My Heart”, which proved to be a significant event.After the teacher announced the news, everyone was eager to participate. As we knew the victory required careful preparation, we spent the following days working on it. We surfed the Internet about the changes in different aspects, including economy, culture, technology, and so on. We also invited an expert to deliver a lecture on the development of our country during the past 70 years. Having learnt about these achievements, we felt so proud of our country and became more motivated for the contest. Finally came the big day. The competition was fierce because every team was well-prepared. My classmates and I went to great lengths and we answered every question confidently. After a few rounds, our team finally won the top prize. Holding the trophy and flowers, we cheered for our success with great joy.We not only felt satisfied with our team effort, but also learned much more about the significant changes in China.2。

[2019][北京市高三二模英语分类汇编--七选五]

[2019][北京市高三二模英语分类汇编--七选五]

2019年北京高考二模分类汇编--七选五1. 2019东城二模A cultural view on personal spaceIt’s a well-known fact that the British prefer a large “bubble” of personal space around them. 46 And in South America, a friend may grab you by the arm during conversation to make their point.Now, a study published in the Journal of Cross-Cultural Psychology has looked into why different cultures have such different approaches to personal space.47 They developed an e arlier study that divided individuals into “contact” and “non-contact” cultures. Contact cultures—southern European, Latin American and Arabian—engaged in more touching and stood closer during conversation than non-contact cultures in northern Europe, North America and parts of Asia.To a degree, this proved correct. Argentina becomes known as the most touchy-feely nation; people here keep the same distance from a stranger as a British person would an acquaintance and a Canadian individual a close friend or partner.48 They come out with the widest distance you should stand from a stranger—more than 1.3m—but one of the narrowest gaps for close friends, just 40cm, compared to nearly 60cm for a British person. So the theory of warm versus cold is not as straightforward as it sounds.49 The higher a country’s average temperature, the closer people will stand to a stranger. But older people in warm climates keep a bigger distance from close friends and stand closer to strangers; women generally keep a greater distance from someone they don’t know.The academics leading this study admit that there is a lot more to do. But what we do know is to keep your distance in Canada; prepare for a hug in Argentina. 50 They like to stand closer than anybody. To keep warm, perhaps.A. It’s important to get the distance right, though.B. Romanians clearly take longer to establish trust.C. How close we stand to other people varies widely between countries.D. And if you end up on good terms with a Norwegian, don’t draw b ack.E. However, in India people will pack into trains and buses without a second thought.F. One theory the researchers wanted to test was whether climate affects personal space.G. The study certainly found that climate, age and gender have an effect on personal distance across cultures.Healthy See, Healthy DoVisit the grocery store on an empty stomach, and you will probably come home with a few things you did not plan to buy. But hunger is not the only cause of additional purchases. The location of store displays (摆放) also influences our shopping choices. 46The checkout area is a particular hotspot for junk food. Studies have found that the products most commonly found there are sugary and salty snacks. 47 A 2012 study in the Netherlands found that hospital workers were more likely to give up junk food for healthy snacks when the latter were more readily available on canteen shelves, for example. In 2014 Norwegian and Icelandic researchers also found that replacing unhealthy foods with healthy ones in the checkout area significantly increased last-minute sales of healthier foods.48 It has been working with more than 1,000 store owners to encourage them to order and promote nutritious foods. “We know that the stores are full of cues (暗示) meant to encourage consumption,” says Tamar Adjoian, a research scientist at the department, “Making healthy foods more convenient or appealing can lead to increased sales of those products.”Adjoian and her colleagues wondered if such findings would apply to their city’s crowded urban checkout areas, so they selected three Bronx supermarkets for their own study. 49 Then they recorded purchases over six three-hour periods in each store for two weeks.Of the more than 2,100 shoppers they observed, just 4 percent bought anything from the checkout area. Among those who did, however, customers in the healthy lines purchased nutritious foods more than twice as often as those in the standard lines.5 The findings were reported in September in the Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior.The potential influence may seem small, but Adjoian believes that changing more checkout lines would open customers’ eyes to nutritious, lower-calorie foods. Health department officials are now exploring ways to expand healthy options at checkout counters throughout New York City.A. These foods give people more energy.B. They bought unhealthy foods 40 percent less often.C. And it may make or break some healthy eating habits.D. The supermarkets began to offer nutritious, lower-calorie foods.E. These findings caught the attention of New York City Department of Health.F. They replaced candies and cookies with fruits and nuts near the checkout counter.G. And a few studies have suggested that simply swapping in healthier options canchange customer behavior.Exam AnxietyHas this ever happened to you? You’ve been studying hard for your midterm, but when you walk into your exam, your mind goes blank, your heart races fast, you get sweaty palms and find it hard to breathe. 46Everyone feels stressed during exams. Usually, it results from a fear of failure, lack of adequate preparation time and bad experiences taking tests in the past. This is normal and often helps you work harder, think faster and generally improve your performance. 47 You may also feel that other people are managing the exam better than you. This can cause you to feel that your mind has “gone blank” on information you know you have revised.48 Some choose to ignore the problem, while others don’t review because they think they will do badly anyway and even miss exams due to the anxiety. It can also be really easy to think that if you don’t try and then you fail, you won’t feel as bad as if you fail after trying really hard.So what can you do to fight against the negative mindset and stay calm before and during your test? 49 Yes, this seems obvious, but it’s worth repeating. If you feel confident that you’ve prepared thoroughly, you’ll feel more confident walking into the test. The second tip is simple: just start. The blank page can maximize your anxiety. 50 You can always go back and change things later if needed, but a few quick answers can get the ball rolling. Besides, allocating(分配) your time is equally important. Look through the whole test before getting started. Mentally allocate how much time you’ll spend on each section. If there’s time to recheck, even better.A. The first thing you should do is to be prepared.B. People often deal with exam stress in many unhelpful ways.C. If these classic signs of exam anxiety sound familiar, you’re not alone!D. Therefore, people need an appropriate amount of pressure to help deal with exams.E. Realizing time is almost up and that there’s still a lot of blank space will make you desperate.F. However, if you are overly anxious about the result, you may be unable to focus on your work.G. After you get the paper, dive right in by getting some questions done to build up your confidence.Films and computer gamesIn just a few decades the gaming industry has become much bigger than the film business. What is called “interactive entertainment” makes more money than Hollywood cinema. Is there any way of making films more appealing to people who like to play computer games?Making a film out of a best-selling computer game can guarantee a large audience. ___46___ Nowadays films are made with similar ones. They have attractive action scenes relying on fantasy effects as well. Gaming markets consist of science-fiction games, and film-makers have also set films in science-fiction worlds. ___47___ Any attempt to borrow more than the setting from a game is certain to fail.Why do gamers feel disappointed by films based on their favorite games? One of the reasons is technical. Now everything can be computer-produced. ___48___ However, filming a scene from 20 different cameras would cost a fortune, so it simply isn’t done in the film version—leaving the gamers feeling that the film didn’t look as real as the computer game.___49___ In a film the director doesn’t show you some things to keep you have the feeling of excitement or anxiety. For example, you wouldn’t be interested in watching the film if you knew the identity of the murderer. But this is not true for computer games. When you play a game, you have to do certain tasks to continue to the new level. ___50___ You are always in control as a player, while in the cinema you never control the action. You just sit and watch.There can be some interaction between films and computer games on different levels. For all the similarities between technologies and special effects, we shouldn’t forget that a story and a game are fundamentally different.A. Cameras matter in another sense, too.B. The success of a game usually lies in the use of special effects.C. You can’t influence what happens at all in the computer games.D. Computer games may show the action from a number of views easily.E. The game has a good chance of being as successful as the film on which it is based.F. You must be able to have access to all the information in order to decide what to do next.G. However, the difficulty for film producers appears to be knowing where and when to stop.Develop Note-Taking SkillsSpeech students are often amazed at how easily their teacher can pick out a speaker’s main points, evidence, and techniques. Of course, the teacher knows what to listen for and has had plenty of practice. But the next time you get an opportunity, watch your teacher during a speech. Chances are she or he will be listening with pen and paper. 46Unfortunately, many people don’t take notes effectively. Some try to write down everything a speaker says. They view note taking as a race, pitting their handwriting agility(敏捷) against the speaker’s rate of speech. 47 But soon the speaker is winning the race. The speaker pulls so far ahead that the note taker can never catch up. Finally, the note taker admits defeat and spends the rest of the speech grumbling in frustration.48 They arrive armed with pen, notebook, and the best of intentions. They know they can’t write down everything, so they settle comfortably in their seats and wait for the speaker to say something that grabs their attention. Every once in a while the speaker rewards them with a joke, a dramatic story, or a startling fact. Then the note taker seizes pen, jots down a few words, and leans back dreamily to await the next fascinating tidbit(趣闻). By the end of the lecture the note taker has a set of tidbits—and little or no record of the speaker’s important ideas.As these examples illustrate, they don’t know what to listen for, and they don’t know how to record what they do listen for. 49 But once you know what to listen for, you still need a sound method of note taking.Although there are a number of systems, most students find the key-word outline best for listening to speeches. As its name suggests, this method briefly notes a speaker’s main points and supporting evidence in roug h outline form. By separating main points from sub-points and evidence, the outline format shows the relationships among the speaker’s ideas. 50 But with a little effort you will become a better note taker.A. Perfecting this taking requires practice.B. Some people go to the opposite extreme.C. As the speaker starts to talk, the note taker starts to write.D. Taking effective notes usually helps you receive higher grades.E. Most inefficient note takers suffer from one or both of two problems.F. When note taking is done properly, it is sure to keep track of a speaker’s ideas.G. The solution to the first problem is to focus on a speaker’s main points and evidence.Overthinking the Small Stuff?How many decisions have you made over the last day, week... month? Drive or Uber? Suit or no suit? Italian or Thai? iPhone or Huawei?While today’s freedom of choice has obvious benefits, the constant pressure to make perfect choices can often rob our freedom, heighten our anxiety and lower our productivity.46 For starters, trying to perfect every single decision is a 'mission impossible,' making it pretty in vain. 47 And finally, research shows that trying to nail every decision reduces our ability to perform at our best and make great decisions about the things that really matter.The irony is that people who try to make the perfect decision every time tend to suffer more anxiety about their decisions, feel less satisfied with them afterward and, unsurprisingly, are less p roductive than people who just go with ‘good enough’.“The habit of aiming for the best possible option every time actually robs people of satisfaction and effectiveness,” wrote Barry Schwartz on the Paradox of Choice.48 However, they're generally less happy about what they eventually decide upon.Better than trying to maximize every choice is to make a ‘good enough’ choice that meets a basic level of satisfaction. So you didn’t get the best possible hotel at the best possible price? Move on. So the shade of yellow you chose to paint the sunroom was a little dark? Again, move on! 4950 The reason is that they aren’t wasting precious time and energy on decisions that don’t really matter. So as you think about all the decisions you have to make in the day or month ahead, focus your precious time, talents and attention on the things that truly matter.A. There are a few reasons for this.B. But some researchers do not agree with it.C. Secondly, it can be mentally and emotionally exhausting.D. Much more important issues are waiting for your attention.E. Besides that, every decision you make may disappoint you.F. Such ‘maximizers,' as Schwartz calls them, spend more time and energy reaching a decision.G. Schwartz found that 'satisficers' who live by the ‘good enough’ rule ac tually get more done.Man invented a number of means to cover distance — cars, planes, radio, TV, computers, spaceships, etc. 46 Reading is real fun, isn’t it? It is a fantastic journey into the past or the future, a true love story or a serious novel to challenge your thoughts, a detective or something funny if you like humour.You could see a lot of people, old and young, reading in many different places —in a park or on a bus, in a plane or on a beach. It might be a magazine or a newspaper, a volume of poems or a lengthy novel. 47 They tell you a lot about life, people, and the fast changing world. They develop imagination, love for word and expression and awaken a wish in you to create something. It is hard to imagine life without books.48 We sometimes look through the book to see what it is about. We may just want to get the general idea from a newspaper article, a report, or a book in a bookshop. This type of reading is called skimming reading.Quick reading is also practiced when we want to get a particular piece of information, such as a date or a telephone number. This is called scanning. We scan timetables, telephone directories, dictionaries and web pages.But if we want to get the detailed information, we read slowly and carefully. This is called intensive reading, or study reading. 49 We consult dictionaries if necessary. We take notes to remember something important, such as a mathematical quotation (引证).Reading fiction, a novel or a favourite poem, is also intensive reading. It needs training and special skills to understand the entire content, the beauty of the expression. 50 It makes you laugh your head off or cry your heart out.A. You get involved in the story.B.

2019北京高三英语二模说明文汇编

CLove the way you walkListen carefully to the footsteps in the family home,and you can probably work out who is walking about.The features most commonly used to identify people are faces,voices and fingerprints.But the way they walk is also a giveaway.Researchers have used video cameras and computers to analyze people’s gaits,and are now quite good at it.But translating such knowledge into a practical identification system can be tricky.Cameras are often visible,are difficult to set up,require good lighting and may have their view blocked by other people.A team led by Dr.Ozanyan and Dr.Scully have been looking for a better way to recognize gait.Their answer:pressure-sensitive mats.Such mats are nothing new.They have been part of security systems.But Ozanyan and Scully use a complicated version that can record the amount of pressure applied in different places as someone walks across it.These measurements form a pattern unique to the walker.The researchers turned to an artificial-intelligence system to recognize such patterns,and it seemed to work.In a study in2018,they tested the system on a database of footsteps of 127people.They found its error rate in identifying who was who was a mere 0.7%.And Scully says even without a database of footsteps to work with,the system can determine someone’s sex and,with reasonable accuracy,a subject’s age.One application of the mat-based gait-recognition system might be in health care,particularly for the elderly.A mat placed in a nursing home or an old person’s own residence could monitor changes in an individual’s gait that indicates certain illnesses.That would provide early warning of someone being at greater risk of falling over.Gait analysis might also be used as a security measure in the workplace, monitoring access to restricted areas,such as parts of military bases,server farms or laboratories dealing with dangerous materials.Perhaps the most interesting use of the mats,though,would be in public places,such as airports.For that to work,the footsteps of those to be recognized would need to have been stored in a database,which would be harder to arrange than the collection of photographs and fingerprints that existing airport security systems rely on.Many aircrew or preregistered frequent flyers would welcome anything that speeded up one of the most tiresome parts of modern travel.38.What is mainly talked about in Paragraph2?A.Research equipment.B.Research findings.C.Research assumption.D.Research background.39.According to Paragraph3,the mat is used to_______.A.collect dataB.ensure safetyC.determine ageD.analyse pressure40.The gait-recognition system might be applied to_____.A.monitor security work progressB.detect potential health problemsC.keep track of travelling frequencyD.warn passengers of possible dangers41.The main purpose of the passage is to_____.pare and educateB.examine and assessC.discuss and persuadeD.explain and informCChoosing to forget something might take more mental effort than trying to remember it,researchers at The University of Texas at Austin discovered through neuroimaging(神经成像).These findings,published in the Journal of Neuroscience,suggest that in order to forget an unwanted experience,more attention should be focused on it.This surprising result continues previous research on intentional forgetting, which focused on reducing attention to the unwanted information through redirecting attention away from unwanted experiences or holding back the memory’s retrievals(恢复).“We may want to get rid of memories that cause nonadaptive responses, such as upsetting memories,so that we can respond to new experiences in more adaptive ways,”said Jarrod Lewis-Peacock,the study’s senior author and an assistant professor of psychology at UT Austin.“Decades of research has shown that we have the ability to voluntarily forget something,but how our brains do that is still being questioned.Once we can figure out how memories are weakened and design ways to control this,we can design treatment to help people rid themselves of unwanted memories.”Using neuroimaging to track patterns of brain activity,the researchers showed a group of healthy adults images of scenes and faces,instructing them to either remember or forget each image.Their findings not only confirmed that humans have the ability to control what they forget,but that successful intentional forgetting required“moderate(适中的)levels”of brain activity in these sensory and perceptual areas(感官区域)—more activity than what was required to remember.“A moderate level of brain activity is critical to this forgetting mechanism.Too strong,and it will strengthen the memory;too weak,and you won’t change it,”said Tracy Wang,lead author of the study and a psychology postdoctoral fellow at UT Austin.“Importantly,it’s the intention to forget that increases the activation of the memory,and when this activation hits the‘moderate level’sweet spot,that’s when it leads to later forgetting of that experience.”The researchers also found that participants were more likely to forget scenes than faces,which can carry much more emotional information,the researchers said.“We’re learning how these mechanisms in our brain respond to different types of information,and it will take a lot of further research and replication (重复)of this work before we understand how to control our ability to forget,”said Lewis-Peacock,who has begun a new study using neurofeedback to track how much attention is given to certain types of memories.“This will make way for future studies on how we process,and hopefully get rid of,those really strong,sticky emotional memories,which can have a powerful effect on our health and well-being,”Lewis-Peacock said.38.Previous studies on intentional forgetting researched______.A.the pattern of brain activityB.the process of recovering a memoryC.the way to reduce attention to unwanted informationD.the amount of attention required by intentional forgetting39.According to Tracy Wang,forgetting is possible when______.A.people respond to new experiences in an adaptive wayB.the activation of the memory reaches a certain levelC.people have the strongest intention to forgetD.the information involves more emotion40.Lewis continues his study to find out______.A.how to control people’s ability to forgetB.where to apply the findings of his team’s latest studyC.what effects upsetting memories have on people’s healthD.if different types of information requires different levels of attention41.What is the best title of the article?A.Where does forgetting take place?B.How does attention affect memory?C.Forgetting uses more brain power than rememberingD.Forgetting is far more difficult than we once imaginedCIt’s common knowledge that the womanin Leonardo da Vinci’s most famous painting seemsto look back at observers,following them with hereyes no matter where they stand in the room.Butthis common knowledge turns out wrong.A new study finds that the woman in the painting is actually looking out at an angle that’s15.4degrees off to the observer’s right—well outside of the range that people normally believe when they think someone is looking right at them.In other words,said the study author,Horstmann,“She’s not looking at you.”This is somewhat ironic,because the entire phenomenon of a person’s gaze(凝视)in a photograph or painting seeming to follow the viewer is called the“Mona Lisa effect”.That effect is absolutely real,Horstmann said.If a person is illustrated or photographed looking straight ahead,even people viewing the portrait from an angle will feel they are being looked at.As long as the angle of the person’s gaze is no more than about5 degrees off to either side,the Mona Lisa effect occurs.This is important for human interaction with on-screen characters.If you want someone off to the right side of a room to feel that a person on-screen is looking at him or her,you don’t cut the gaze of the character to that side—surprisingly,doing so would make an observer feel like the character isn’t looking at anyone in the room at all.Instead,you keep the gaze straight ahead.Horstmann and his co-author were studying this effect for its application in the creation of artificial-intelligence avatars(虚拟头像)when Horstmann took a long look atthe“MonaLisa”and realizedshe wasn’t looking at him.To make sure it wasn’t just him,the researchers asked24people to view images of the“Mona Lisa”on a computer screen.They set a ruler between the viewer and the screen and asked the participants to note which number on the ruler intersected Mona Lisa’s gaze.To calculate the angle of Mona Lisa’s gaze as she looked at the viewer,they moved the ruler farther from or closer to the screen during the study.Consistently,the researchers found,participants judged that the woman in the“Mona Lisa”portrait was not looking straight at them,but slightly off to their right.So why do people repeat the belief that her eyes seem to follow the viewer?Horstmann isn’t sure.It’s possible,he said,that people have the desire to be looked at,so they think the woman is looking straight at them.Or maybe the people who first coined the term“Mona Lisa effect”just thought it was a cool name.38.It is generally believed that the woman in the painting“Mona Lisa”____.A.attracts the viewers to look backB.seems mysterious because of her eyesC.fixes her eyes on the back of the viewersD.looks at the viewers wherever they stand39.What gaze range in a painting will cause the Mona Lisa effect?A. B. C. D.40.The experiment involving24people was conducted to______.A.confirm Horstmann’s beliefB.create artificial-intelligence avatarsC.calculate the angle of Mona Lisa’s gazeD.explain how the Mona Lisa effect can be applied41.What can we learn from the passage?A.Horstmann thinks it’s cool to coin the term“Mona Lisa effect”.B.The Mona Lisa effect contributes to the creation of artificial intelligence.C.Feeling being gazed at by Mona Lisa may be caused by the desire for attention.D.The position of the ruler in the experiment will influence the viewers’judgement.CThe Alexander techniqueUntil earlier this year,I didn’t know anything about the Alexander technique—and saw no reason to think I should.One day,the backache I regularly suffered was more painful.I was brought up to think that the preferred way of dealing with aches is to do nothing and hope they’ll go away,but I eventually went to the doctor.After examining me,he said,“You actually have bad posture(姿势).Go off and learn the Alexander technique.”Three months later I could walk straighter and sit better.The Alexander technique is a way of learning how you can get rid of harmful tension in your body.The teaching focuses on the neck,head and back.It trains you to use your body less severely and carry out the movements that we do all the time with less effort.There is little effort in the lessons themselves,which sets apart the Alexander technique from yoga or pilates,which are exercise-based.A typical lesson involves standing in front of a chair and learning to sit and stand with minimum effort.You spend some time lying on a bench with your knees bent to straighten the spine(脊椎)and relax your body while the teacher moves your arms and legs to train you to move them correctly.The technique helps to break the bad habits accumulated over years.Try folding your arms the opposite way to normal.This is an example of a habit the body has formed which can be hard to break.Many of us carry our heads too far back.The head weighs four to six kilos,so any inappropriate posture can cause problems for the body.The technique teaches you to let go of the muscles holding the head back,allowing it to go back to its natural place on the top of our spines.So who was Alexander and how did he come up with the technique? Frederick Alexander,an Australian actor born in1869,found in his youth that he had vocal(声音的)problems during performances.He analyzed himself and realized his posture was bad.He worked on improving it,with excellent results.He brought his technique to London and opened a teacher-training school,which is still successful today.So if you’re walking along the road one day with shoulders bent forward, feeling weighed down by your troubles,give a thought to the Alexander technique.It will help you walk tall again.38.What does the author suggest in Paragraph1?A.She felt no better after the treatment.B.She got bored with the Alexander technique.C.She was sceptical about the doctor’s method.D.She was unwilling to seek treatment for her backache.39.What is the principle of the Alexander technique?A.Physical tension shouldn’t be completely relieved.B.The technique shouldn’t be combined with other exercises.C.The practice of the technique shouldn’t be attempted alone.D.Familiar physical actions shouldn’t be done with much effort.40.What can we learn about Frederick Alexander?A.He managed to recover his vocal powers.B.He was eager to make a name for himself.C.He developed a form of exercise for actors.D.He had to leave home to develop his technique.41.What is the main idea of the passage?A.The occurrence of back pain is widespread.B.Alexander improved the technique to treat body pain.C.The Alexander technique helps overcome posture problems.D.People with back pain are victims of inappropriate posturesCEvery year migratory(迁徙的)bats travel from Mexico to Bracken Cave, where they spend the summer consuming insects that would otherwise hungrily eat common food crops.But the bats have been showing up far earlier than they did two decades ago.In a study,scientists at Rothamsted Research,an agricultural laboratory in England,used radar data from160U.S.weather stations to analyze activity in the Texas bat colony from1995through2017.They discovered the creatures were leaving their winter quarters in Mexico earlier and reproducing sooner.They were also astonished to find increasing numbers of bats overwintering(过冬)at Bracken Cave instead of heading back to their cold weather quarters in Mexico.Overwintering is a sign that warmer temperatures change the bats’annual rhythms,Rothamsted biologist Phillip Stepanian says.A separate study of migratory bats in Indiana,published last year,found that temperature variations affected arrival and departure times—likewise hinting at the potential influence of climate change.Joy O’Keefe,a biology professor at Indiana State University and co-author of that study,says early arrival at their summer habitats(栖息地)could expose these bats to cold snaps(寒流),and they could freeze to death.Joy O’Keefe and her colleagues also found that changing bat migration times can also clash with rainfall patterns.Many insects that bats eat breed in seasonal lakes and puddles.If the bats arrive too early to benefit from summer rainfall and the resulting abundance of insects,they may struggle to feed their pups(幼崽)or skip reproduction altogether,O’Keefe says.She fears this shift could cause Midwestern bats to decrease toward extinction, which would be bad news for humans.“Declines in bat populations could have severe effects for crop success,”she says,adding that bats also“control significant disease vectors,such as mosquitoes.”However,scientists are not certain that climate change alone is causing the Bracken Cave bat colony to migrate earlier.They have found a direct link between seasonal temperatures and bird migration,but bats are also influenced by factors such as changes in wind speed and direction.And there are other complications.“Bats are mysterious little animals that move mostly at night and are difficult to observe and track,”Stepanian says.“We have this conceptual picture of what might be happening,but really tying it to the cause is the next step.”38.Scientists at Rothamsted Research found that_________.A.bats prefer colder weatherB.bats delay their reproductionC.warming affects bat migrationD.radar can be used to observe bats39.Joy O’Keefe discovered that_________.A.bats are used to living in rainfall seasonsB.bats’earlier migration might harm farmingC.insects’reproduction helps to spread diseaseD.insects shortage makes bats reproduce earlier40.What does the last paragraph want to tell us?A.Wind speed and direction affect bats.B.It is difficult to observe and track bats.C.Climate change makes bats migrate earlier.D.Further research on the cause is necessary.41.What is the best title for the passage?A.Bats’habitatsB.Endangered batsC.Bats’scheduleD.Bats,our good friends。

2019年北京高考二模分类汇编--七选五1. 2019东城二模A cultural view on personal spaceIt’s a well-known fact that the British prefer a large “bubble” of personal space around them. 46 And in South America, a friend may grab you by the arm during conversation to make their point.Now, a study published in the Journal of Cross-Cultural Psychology has looked into why different cultures have such different approaches to personal space.47 They developed an e arlier study that divided individuals into “contact” and “non-contact” cultures. Contact cultures—southern European, Latin American and Arabian—engaged in more touching and stood closer during conversation than non-contact cultures in northern Europe, North America and parts of Asia.To a degree, this proved correct. Argentina becomes known as the most touchy-feely nation; people here keep the same distance from a stranger as a British person would an acquaintance and a Canadian individual a close friend or partner.48 They come out with the widest distance you should stand from a stranger—more than 1.3m—but one of the narrowest gaps for close friends, just 40cm, compared to nearly 60cm for a British person. So the theory of warm versus cold is not as straightforward as it sounds.49 The higher a country’s average temperature, the closer people will stand to a stranger. But older people in warm climates keep a bigger distance from close friends and stand closer to strangers; women generally keep a greater distance from someone they don’t know.The academics leading this study admit that there is a lot more to do. But what we do know is to keep your distance in Canada; prepare for a hug in Argentina. 50 They like to stand closer than anybody. To keep warm, perhaps.A. It’s important to get the distance right, though.B. Romanians clearly take longer to establish trust.C. How close we stand to other people varies widely between countries.D. And if you end up on good terms with a Norwegian, don’t draw b ack.E. However, in India people will pack into trains and buses without a second thought.F. One theory the researchers wanted to test was whether climate affects personal space.G. The study certainly found that climate, age and gender have an effect on personal distance across cultures.Healthy See, Healthy DoVisit the grocery store on an empty stomach, and you will probably come home with a few things you did not plan to buy. But hunger is not the only cause of additional purchases. The location of store displays (摆放) also influences our shopping choices. 46The checkout area is a particular hotspot for junk food. Studies have found that the products most commonly found there are sugary and salty snacks. 47 A 2012 study in the Netherlands found that hospital workers were more likely to give up junk food for healthy snacks when the latter were more readily available on canteen shelves, for example. In 2014 Norwegian and Icelandic researchers also found that replacing unhealthy foods with healthy ones in the checkout area significantly increased last-minute sales of healthier foods.48 It has been working with more than 1,000 store owners to encourage them to order and promote nutritious foods. “We know that the stores are full of cues (暗示) meant to encourage consumption,” says Tamar Adjoian, a research scientist at the department, “Making healthy foods more convenient or appealing can lead to increased sales of those products.”Adjoian and her colleagues wondered if such findings would apply to their city’s crowded urban checkout areas, so they selected three Bronx supermarkets for their own study. 49 Then they recorded purchases over six three-hour periods in each store for two weeks.Of the more than 2,100 shoppers they observed, just 4 percent bought anything from the checkout area. Among those who did, however, customers in the healthy lines purchased nutritious foods more than twice as often as those in the standard lines.5 The findings were reported in September in the Journal of Nutrition Education and Behavior.The potential influence may seem small, but Adjoian believes that changing more checkout lines would open customers’ eyes to nutritious, lower-calorie foods. Health department officials are now exploring ways to expand healthy options at checkout counters throughout New York City.A. These foods give people more energy.B. They bought unhealthy foods 40 percent less often.C. And it may make or break some healthy eating habits.D. The supermarkets began to offer nutritious, lower-calorie foods.E. These findings caught the attention of New York City Department of Health.F. They replaced candies and cookies with fruits and nuts near the checkout counter.G. And a few studies have suggested that simply swapping in healthier options canchange customer behavior.Exam AnxietyHas this ever happened to you? You’ve been studying hard for your midterm, but when you walk into your exam, your mind goes blank, your heart races fast, you get sweaty palms and find it hard to breathe. 46Everyone feels stressed during exams. Usually, it results from a fear of failure, lack of adequate preparation time and bad experiences taking tests in the past. This is normal and often helps you work harder, think faster and generally improve your performance. 47 You may also feel that other people are managing the exam better than you. This can cause you to feel that your mind has “gone blank” on information you know you have revised.48 Some choose to ignore the problem, while others don’t review because they think they will do badly anyway and even miss exams due to the anxiety. It can also be really easy to think that if you don’t try and then you fail, you won’t feel as bad as if you fail after trying really hard.So what can you do to fight against the negative mindset and stay calm before and during your test? 49 Yes, this seems obvious, but it’s worth repeating. If you feel confident that you’ve prepared thoroughly, you’ll feel more confident walking into the test. The second tip is simple: just start. The blank page can maximize your anxiety. 50 You can always go back and change things later if needed, but a few quick answers can get the ball rolling. Besides, allocating(分配) your time is equally important. Look through the whole test before getting started. Mentally allocate how much time you’ll spend on each section. If there’s time to recheck, even better.A. The first thing you should do is to be prepared.B. People often deal with exam stress in many unhelpful ways.C. If these classic signs of exam anxiety sound familiar, you’re not alone!D. Therefore, people need an appropriate amount of pressure to help deal with exams.E. Realizing time is almost up and that there’s still a lot of blank space will make you desperate.F. However, if you are overly anxious about the result, you may be unable to focus on your work.G. After you get the paper, dive right in by getting some questions done to build up your confidence.Films and computer gamesIn just a few decades the gaming industry has become much bigger than the film business. What is called “interactive entertainment” makes more money than Hollywood cinema. Is there any way of making films more appealing to people who like to play computer games?Making a film out of a best-selling computer game can guarantee a large audience. ___46___ Nowadays films are made with similar ones. They have attractive action scenes relying on fantasy effects as well. Gaming markets consist of science-fiction games, and film-makers have also set films in science-fiction worlds. ___47___ Any attempt to borrow more than the setting from a game is certain to fail.Why do gamers feel disappointed by films based on their favorite games? One of the reasons is technical. Now everything can be computer-produced. ___48___ However, filming a scene from 20 different cameras would cost a fortune, so it simply isn’t done in the film version—leaving the gamers feeling that the film didn’t look as real as the computer game.___49___ In a film the director doesn’t show you some things to keep you have the feeling of excitement or anxiety. For example, you wouldn’t be interested in watching the film if you knew the identity of the murderer. But this is not true for computer games. When you play a game, you have to do certain tasks to continue to the new level. ___50___ You are always in control as a player, while in the cinema you never control the action. You just sit and watch.There can be some interaction between films and computer games on different levels. For all the similarities between technologies and special effects, we shouldn’t forget that a story and a game are fundamentally different.A. Cameras matter in another sense, too.B. The success of a game usually lies in the use of special effects.C. You can’t influence what happens at all in the computer games.D. Computer games may show the action from a number of views easily.E. The game has a good chance of being as successful as the film on which it is based.F. You must be able to have access to all the information in order to decide what to do next.G. However, the difficulty for film producers appears to be knowing where and when to stop.Develop Note-Taking SkillsSpeech students are often amazed at how easily their teacher can pick out a speaker’s main points, evidence, and techniques. Of course, the teacher knows what to listen for and has had plenty of practice. But the next time you get an opportunity, watch your teacher during a speech. Chances are she or he will be listening with pen and paper. 46Unfortunately, many people don’t take notes effectively. Some try to write down everything a speaker says. They view note taking as a race, pitting their handwriting agility(敏捷) against the speaker’s rate of speech. 47 But soon the speaker is winning the race. The speaker pulls so far ahead that the note taker can never catch up. Finally, the note taker admits defeat and spends the rest of the speech grumbling in frustration.48 They arrive armed with pen, notebook, and the best of intentions. They know they can’t write down everything, so they settle comfortably in their seats and wait for the speaker to say something that grabs their attention. Every once in a while the speaker rewards them with a joke, a dramatic story, or a startling fact. Then the note taker seizes pen, jots down a few words, and leans back dreamily to await the next fascinating tidbit(趣闻). By the end of the lecture the note taker has a set of tidbits—and little or no record of the speaker’s important ideas.As these examples illustrate, they don’t know what to listen for, and they don’t know how to record what they do listen for. 49 But once you know what to listen for, you still need a sound method of note taking.Although there are a number of systems, most students find the key-word outline best for listening to speeches. As its name suggests, this method briefly notes a speaker’s main points and supporting evidence in roug h outline form. By separating main points from sub-points and evidence, the outline format shows the relationships among the speaker’s ideas. 50 But with a little effort you will become a better note taker.A. Perfecting this taking requires practice.B. Some people go to the opposite extreme.C. As the speaker starts to talk, the note taker starts to write.D. Taking effective notes usually helps you receive higher grades.E. Most inefficient note takers suffer from one or both of two problems.F. When note taking is done properly, it is sure to keep track of a speaker’s ideas.G. The solution to the first problem is to focus on a speaker’s main points and evidence.Overthinking the Small Stuff?How many decisions have you made over the last day, week... month? Drive or Uber? Suit or no suit? Italian or Thai? iPhone or Huawei?While today’s freedom of choice has obvious benefits, the constant pressure to make perfect choices can often rob our freedom, heighten our anxiety and lower our productivity.46 For starters, trying to perfect every single decision is a 'mission impossible,' making it pretty in vain. 47 And finally, research shows that trying to nail every decision reduces our ability to perform at our best and make great decisions about the things that really matter.The irony is that people who try to make the perfect decision every time tend to suffer more anxiety about their decisions, feel less satisfied with them afterward and, unsurprisingly, are less p roductive than people who just go with ‘good enough’.“The habit of aiming for the best possible option every time actually robs people of satisfaction and effectiveness,” wrote Barry Schwartz on the Paradox of Choice.48 However, they're generally less happy about what they eventually decide upon.Better than trying to maximize every choice is to make a ‘good enough’ choice that meets a basic level of satisfaction. So you didn’t get the best possible hotel at the best possible price? Move on. So the shade of yellow you chose to paint the sunroom was a little dark? Again, move on! 4950 The reason is that they aren’t wasting precious time and energy on decisions that don’t really matter. So as you think about all the decisions you have to make in the day or month ahead, focus your precious time, talents and attention on the things that truly matter.A. There are a few reasons for this.B. But some researchers do not agree with it.C. Secondly, it can be mentally and emotionally exhausting.D. Much more important issues are waiting for your attention.E. Besides that, every decision you make may disappoint you.F. Such ‘maximizers,' as Schwartz calls them, spend more time and energy reaching a decision.G. Schwartz found that 'satisficers' who live by the ‘good enough’ rule ac tually get more done.Man invented a number of means to cover distance — cars, planes, radio, TV, computers, spaceships, etc. 46 Reading is real fun, isn’t it? It is a fantastic journey into the past or the future, a true love story or a serious novel to challenge your thoughts, a detective or something funny if you like humour.You could see a lot of people, old and young, reading in many different places —in a park or on a bus, in a plane or on a beach. It might be a magazine or a newspaper, a volume of poems or a lengthy novel. 47 They tell you a lot about life, people, and the fast changing world. They develop imagination, love for word and expression and awaken a wish in you to create something. It is hard to imagine life without books.48 We sometimes look through the book to see what it is about. We may just want to get the general idea from a newspaper article, a report, or a book in a bookshop. This type of reading is called skimming reading.Quick reading is also practiced when we want to get a particular piece of information, such as a date or a telephone number. This is called scanning. We scan timetables, telephone directories, dictionaries and web pages.But if we want to get the detailed information, we read slowly and carefully. This is called intensive reading, or study reading. 49 We consult dictionaries if necessary. We take notes to remember something important, such as a mathematical quotation (引证).Reading fiction, a novel or a favourite poem, is also intensive reading. It needs training and special skills to understand the entire content, the beauty of the expression. 50 It makes you laugh your head off or cry your heart out.A. You get involved in the story.B. Reading can be a social activity.C. We read in many different ways and at different speeds.D. Books help you understand the world and yourself better.E. Scanning is used when we need to locate special information.F. But up till now, there has been only one way to cover time — books.G. In the latter case we check the meaning not to misunderstand something.2019年北京高考二模分类汇编--七选五参考答案1. 2019东城二模46.E 47.F 48.B 49.G 50.D2. 2019西城二模46.C 47.G 48.E 49.F 50.B3. 2019海淀二模46. C 47. F 48. B 49.
