I grew up in a West Virginia mining town in Fayette County. A man named John moved into our town from New Orleans. He was a 21 man, who I estimated was at least 6'6, 245 pounds. He had broad shoulders and truly 22 the definition of the V body type. He was really a man with strength and endurance.John worked for some days, when there were no 23 and he was absolutely a hell of a great miner. However, the 24 day came, when I was ten; a terrible disaster 25 . Timber crossbars (木梁) were often used in mines to 26 the top. That day my father was working alongside John in the mine. A timber cracked suddenly and the loud cry of men was 27 . Hearing this, my dad and John rushed to the site of the 28 . There some miners were trapped; they felt 29 and depressed, either in shock or in prayer.In times of emergency, John began to rescue the miners without hesitation. He grabbed the timber and with a strong push applied all his 30 to it. In a seemingly impossible turn of events, the blocking moved. John 31 the timber and all the miners escaped, but in doing so, the wood structure was becoming further weakened, and John himself was trapped below in place of the miners. My father and the other miners 32 started to work with their jacks (千斤顶),desperately trying to 33 John, but the top fell down suddenly and there was no 34 of reaching him. John was buried there forever.A small marble monument was 35 in front of the entrance to the mine in memory of John, the hero who had sacrificed his life deep in the earth in order to save other miners.21.

Fear of rejection is also a 20for keeping silent. Small talk in a conversation can 21 as a way of warming up and getting to 22 each other. Most people, no matter 23 successful they are at work, will find the processof 24 small talk unfortable, even pointless. 25 , you will have a pretty small world 26 you refuse to let others in.

Once you find mon 33of interest, things will definitely 34off from there.Small talk can 35out to be a pleasant experience. The conversation 36 be brief and casual without turning into a long and boring discussion. Do not let yourself 37the conversation. Stop worrying about how big of a fool you may appear to be.

The area is considered important in terms of biodiversity, featuring nearly 35 species of whales and dolphins, 150 types of fish and three of the world’s seven sea turtle species. It is also geologically significant, including the world’s longest chain of underwater volcanoes a nd the second deepest ocean trench, into 10 km underwater —deeper than Mount Everest’s height. The scale of the sanctuary will dwarf (矮化) any previous New Zealand’s protected area, spanning twice the size of the country’s mainland. It will cover 15% of Ne w Zealand’s economic zone.mercial and recreational fishing will be pletely banned, as will oil, gas and mineral prospecting (勘探), exploration and mining. Key’s government aims to pass legislation establishing the sanctuary next year."The sanctuary is a world-class, unspoiled marine environment and New Zealand is proud to protect it for future generations,"Key said."New Zealanders value our coasts and oceans, which are an important part of our culture, economy and environment and we are mitted to managing them sustainably. Creating protected areas will support not only our own fisheries, but those of our Pacific neighbors, adding to New Zealand’s efforts to help grow Pacific economies through the responsible management of their ocean resources."Nick Smith, New Zealand’s environment minister, said the sanctuary might impose a cost upon the mining industry but that it is important to protect the ocean before exploration takes place."New Zealand needs to use its vast ocean resources for jobs and exports in industries like fishing, aquaculture, minerals and energy, but we also need to set aside special areas where nature es first and marine life is fully protected,"Smith said.New Zealand will monitor the area via its navy and satellite technology. The Kermadec region will join three other key areas in the Pacific protected by the US, the UK and Australia.Matt Rand, director of the Pew Charitable Trusts’ Global Ocean Legacy (遗产) campaign, weled Key’s announcement."New Zealand will create the gold standard of con servation areas in the sanctuary, preserving one of the few relatively unspoiled areas of ocean on Earth,"hesaid."This mitment is an exciting step toward meeting global goals to safeguard at least 30% of the ocean through fully protected marine reserves."1.Why is the Kermadec Ocean Sanctuary important in biodiversity?A.It has a superior geographical location.B.It has many different kinds of sea animals.C.Its environment is suitable for the growth of marine life.D.It is the only unspoiled area of ocean remained on Earth.2.Which of the following will Key probably agree on?A.People are allowed to fish for fun in the sanctuary.B.All Pacific countries should be responsible for ocean resources.C.New Zealanders attach great importance to protecting the sanctuary.D.New Zealand has made great achievement in creating protected areas.3.What can we infer from what Nick Smith said?A.New Zealand should develop its marine industry in special areas.B.The Kermadec Ocean Sanctuary may affect New Zealand’s mining industry.C.New Zealand hasn’t figured out how to make full use of its ocean resources.D.Measures should be taken immediately to protect the ocean after explorations.BHave you thought about what you want people to say about you after you’re gone? Can yo u hear the voice saying,"He was a great man."or"She really will be missed."What else do they say?One of the phenomena of life is to engage in a work that will last long after death. Isn’t that a lot like investing all your money so that future generations can get interest on it? Perhaps, yet if you look deep in your own heart, you’ll find something drives you to make this kind of contribution — something drives every human being to find a purpose that lives on after death.Do you hope to memorialize your name? Have a name that is whispered with reverent awe? Do you hope to have your face carved upon 50 feet of granite rock(花岗岩)? Is the answer really that simple? Is the purpose of lifetime contribution an ego-driven desire for a mortal(凡人的) being to have an immortal name or is it something more?A child alive today will die tomorrow. A baby that has the potential to be the next Einstein will die from plications at birth.The circumstances of life are not set in stone. We are not allmeant to live life through to old age. We’ve grown to perceive life as a full cycle with a certain number of years in between. If all of those years aren’t lived out, it’s a tragedy. A tragedy es about because a human’s potential has never been realized. A tragedy es about because a spark was snuffed out before it ever became a flame.By virtue of inhabiting a body we accept these risks. We expose our mortal flesh to the laws of the physical environment around us. The trade-off isn’t so bad when you think about it. The problem es whe n we construct mortal fantasies of what life should be like. When life doesn’t conform to our fantasy we grow upset, frustrated, or depressed.We are alive; let us live. We have the ability to experience; let us experience. We have the ability to learn; let us learn. The meaning of life can be grasped in a moment. A moment so brief that it often evades our perception.What meaning stands behind the dramatic unfolding of life? What single truth can we grasp and hang onto for dear life when all other truths around us seem to fade with time?These moments are strung together in a series we call events. These events are strung together in a series we call life. When we seize the moment and bend it to our will, a will driven by the spirit deep inside us, then we have discovered the meaning of life, a meaning for us that shall go on long after we depart this Earth.1.Why are people devoted to a career lasting long even after their death?A.Because they want to achieve more.B.Because they want to benefit their generations.C.Because they want to find the meaning of their life.D.Because they want to make others satisfied with them.2.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 4 mean?A.Life is always changeable.B.Life is always invisible.C.Life is always predictable.D.Life is always reliable.3.The author thinks the risks in our life are.A.frustratingB.worthwhileC.dangerousD.challenging4.What can we learn about wills according to the last paragraph?A.Events drive us to explore our wills.B.Events are made up of wills of our life.C.Moments are realized by spirit and wills.D.We should live our lives according to our will.CA busy public square in the Chinese city of Nanjing is home to an unusual experiment.For almost two months, the country’s first “honesty bookshop” has occupied(占据)a sidewalk on HanZhong Road in the city’s Gulou District.With no cashier or other staff, the store relies on trust for payment.Making money isn’t the pany’s main goal and they don’t punish those who take books without paying.“If they can really finish the books, it doesn’t matter if they took the books for free,” Zhu Yu , the marketing director of the pany says.“In fact, we are really happy to witness so many people taking books from the honesty bookshop.”After browsing the four wooden bookshelves, customers must drop their money in a locked box.Prices are set at 30% of the usual cover price.Zhu hopes that his sidewalk store, which sells, on average, 60 books a day ,will make more people interested in reading.Like elsewhere,e-books are affecting sales of traditional books, And traditional books and many independent booksellers are struggling.Zhu got permission from the city government to use the sidewalk and says he’s determined to make it a long-term project.He says th e store is open every day, except when it rains ,and it’s locked up each night.In September last year, the pany laid out 1,000 books and reading lamps on the ground and encouraged people“ to go on a date” with a book.“Independent bookshops represent the well-being of the city.” Zhu told CNN in xx, “when a city is losing its bookshops, it’s actually losing something in its soul.”[KIf the success of the Honesty Bookstore is any guide, Nanjing’s soul is in pretty good shape.1.How is the bookstore different from other bookstores?A. There is no cashier in itB. There are no paper books in itC. None of the customers need to pay for the booksD. Only honest customers can visit the shop2.What does Zhu Yu say about customers who take away books without paying?A. They will be forbidden from visiting the bookstore againB.

They will not be allowed to take books away next time3.What is one of the purposes of opening the bookstore?A. To encourage people to readB. To make customers honestC.

高三上学期一轮复习周测英语试题Word版含答案

AIt’s rare that you see the words “shyness” and “letter” in the same sentence.After all,the common viewpoint is that those outgoing and sociable guys make great public speakers and excellent networkers and that those shy people are not.A survey conducted by USA Today referred to 65 percent of executives who believed shyness to be a barrier to leadership.Interestingly,the same article stresses that roughly 40 percent of leaders actually are quite shy—they're just better at adapting themselves to situational demands.Bill Gates,Warren Buffet and Charles Schwab are just a few "innies".Unlike their outgoing counterparts who are more sensitive to rewards and risk-taking,shy people take a cautious approach to chance.Rather than the flashy chit-chat that defines social gathering,shy people listen attentively to what others say and absorb it before they speak.They're not thinking about what to say while the other person is still talking,but rather listening so they can learn what to say.Along the same lines,shy people share a common love of learning.They are intrinsically(内在地)motivated and therefore seek content regardless of achieving an outside standard.Being shy can also bring other benefits.Remember being in school and hearing the same kids contribute,until shy little Johnny,who almost never said a word,cut in?Then what happened? Everyone turned around to look with great respect at little Johnny actually talking.This is how shy people made good use of their power of presence: they "own" the moment by speaking calmly and purposefully,which translate to a positive image.Shyness is often related to modesty.Not to say that limelight-seekers aren't modest,but shy people tend to have an accurate sense of their abilities and achievements.As a result,they are able to acknowledge mistakes,imperfections, knowledge gaps and limitations.Since shy people have a lower sensitivity to outside rewards than outgoing ones,they're more comfortable working with little information and sticking to their inner desires.Shy people are alsomore likely to insist on finding solutions that aren't primarily apparent.Don't believe me?Maybesuccessful person.The myth that shy people are less effective leaders than their outgoing fellows is just a misunderstanding.Make wise use of your personality strengths to lead your business no matter what side of the range you fall on.1.We can learn from Paragraph 2 that_______.A.shy people are sensitive to rewardsB.shy people care more about contentC.outgoing people are more careful about chancesD.outgoing people consider what to learn while listening2.The example of Johnny shows______.A.shy people are likely to be modestB.hardworking students speak little in publicC.some students keep silent on purpose at schoolD.shy people may have an advantage in discussion3.We can learn from the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 that______.A.shyness results in successB.shyness contributes to popularityC.outside reward leads to insistenceD.uncertainty counts more than certainty4.The author supports his ideas mainly by______.A.giving definitions and presenting research resultsB.explaining problems and providing solutionsC.quoting authorities and making evaluationsD.making contrasts and gibing examplesB“Can’t hold a candle to”is a popular expression.When there wasn’t electricity,someone would have a servant light his way by holding a candle.The expression meant that the person who cannot hold a candle to you is not fit even to be your servant.Now,it means such a person cannot compare or compete.Another expression is “hold your tongue.”It means to be still and not talk.“H old your tongue”is not something you would tell a friend.But a parent or teacher might use the expression to quiet a noisy child.“Hold out”is an expression one hears often in sports reports and labor news.It means to refuse to play or work. Professional football and baseball players “hold out” if their team refuses to pay them what they think they are worth.The expression “hold up” has several different meanings.One is a robbery.A man with a gun may say,“This is a hold up.Give me your money.”Another meaning is to delay.A driver who was held up by heavy traffic might be late for work.Another meaning is for a story to be considered true after an investigation.A story can hold up if it is proved true.“Hold on”is another expression,which means wait or stop.As you leave for school,your brother may say,“Hold on,you forgot your book.” It is used to ask a telephone caller to wait and not hang up his telephone.Our final expression is “hold the line.”That means to keep a problem or situation from getting worse—to hold steady.For example,the president may say he will “hold the line on taxes.”He means there will be no increase in taxes.5.The expression “can’t hold a candle to” can be used when _______.A.some footballers refuse to play a gameB.someone else is wanted on the phoneC.someone is not qualified for a positionD.someone was delayed by heavy traffic6.The tune of the phrase “hold your tongue” is probably a little_______.A.amusingB.politeC.unfriendlyD.offensive7.If some teachers “hold out”,they probably______.A.change their attitudeB.refuse to workC.make a compromiseD.show their devotion8.Which of the following sentences can convey positive meanings?A.I was late as I was held up by a hold up.B.Hold on!You have to pay the bill,sir.C.You can’t even hold a candle to Michael.D.I promise to hold the line on house prices.CHow can we reduce the risk?There are four general approaches to dealing with volcanic(火山似的)dangers.We can try to keep the danger from occurring—often an impossible task.We can try to change its path or reduce its impact on existing development. We can take steps to protect future development.We can also do our best to have disaster response plans in place before they are needed.Removing the ThreatClearly,there is no way to stop an eruption.We can,however,attempt to reduce the eruption’s effects by strengthening structures,for example,building protective works such as walls to make lava(熔岩)flow away from developed areas.Such efforts can be and have been successful,but are of limited use in a large-scale(范围)eruption.Planning for the FutureProtecting future development from volcanic dangers is a simple task.Before building houses,we should judge the risk.If the risk seems too great,a safer location should be found.This type of planning is very effective,but all too often,people are drawn to the lush(葱郁的),rolling land of a quiet volcano.Disaster Preparedness(预案)When a volcano comes to life,a few weeks may not be enough to avoid a tragedy.Planning is the key to saving lives.Well before the warning signs occur,people must be educated about volcanic dangers.Escape plans must be in munication between scientists,officials,the media,and the general public should be practiced.Emergency measures must be thought out and agreed upon.If you doubt the importance of these efforts,take another look at past volcanic tragedies,such as the eruption of Nevado del munication failures left the town of Armero unprepared for escape.When a deadly mudflow came down the slope(斜坡),21,000 people—90 percent of the town’s people—died.9.The passage is intended for_______.A.the general publicB.architectsC.adventurersD.geographers10.When building houses,people tend to______.A.judge volcanic dangers carefullyB.take volcanic dangers seriouslyC.live near a quiet volcanoD.find a safer place far away from a volcano11.The writer mentioned Nevado del Ruiz to prove______.A.the failure to keep volcanic dangers from happeningB.the importance of preparing for a volcanic eruptionC.the bravery of the people in Armero TownD.the uncertainty of volcano’s damageDI was born and raised in Minnesota,the USA,but us an adult I have mostly lived in Europe and Africa.I teach cross-cultural management at the International Business School near Paris.For the last 15 years,I’ve studied how people in different parts of the world build trust,communicate,and make decisions especially in the workplace.While traveling in Tokyo recently with Japanese colleague,I gave a short talk to a group of 20 managers.At the end,I asked whether there were any questions or comments.No hands went up,so I went to sit down.My colleague whispered to me,“I think there actually were some comments,Erin.Do you mind if I try?”I agreed,but I guessed it a waste of breath.He asked the group again,“Any comments or questions?”Still,no one raised a hand,but this time he looked very carefully at each person in the silent audience.Gesturing to one of them,he said,“Do you have something to add?”To my amazement,she responded “Yes,thank you.” and asked me a very interesting question.My colleague repeated this several times,looking directly at the audience and asking for more questions or comments.After the session,I asked my colleague,“How do you know that those people had questions?”He hesitated,not sure how to explain it,and then said,“It has to do with how bright their eyes are.”He continued,“In Japan,we don’t make as much direct eye contact as you do in the West.So when you asked if there were any comments,most people were not looking directly at you.But a few people in the group were looking right at you,and their eyes were bright.That indicates that they would be happy to have you call on them.”I thought to myself I would never have learned from my upbringing in Minnesota.Since then,I try to focus on understanding behavior in other cultures I encounter,and keep finding the bright eyes in the room.12.What can we conclude from the first paragraph?A.Life in Minnesota has made the author worn out.B.The author enjoys traveling around the world.C.Different cultures are kind of familiar to the author.D.The author may start his own business in the future.13.Hearing the colleague whispering,the author______.A.went back to his seat and got seatedB.knew his colleague had some questionsC.owed a big debt of gratitude to his colleagueD.thought his colleague would get nowhere14.Where does the author’s colleague probably come from?A.Japan.B.America.C.Africa.D.France15.Which is the proper title for the passage?A.Focusing on Behavior in Cultures.B.Looking at Another Culture in the Eye.C.Sharing Different Cultures in Tokyo.D.Admiring the Beauty in the Eye.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

C. Human laws, as well as of religion, morals, and education, are believed to originate from Folkways.
1.Some persons look on laws with fear, hatred, or annoyance, because_____.
A. they can’t do whatever they want to
B. they feel it unnecessary to have laws
I don’t only avoid those “if only” moments when it comes to safety. It’s equally important to avoid “if only” in our personal relationships. We all know people who lost a loved one and regretted that they hadforegonean opportunity to say “I love you” or “I forgive you.” When my father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday, I told him that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldn’t be here. But then I thought about the fact that he’s 84 years old and I realized that I shouldn’t give up an opportunity to see him. I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all.

The fruits that made it to the UK were green on the outside and, more often than not, hard with an unpleasant taste within. Then in 1966, the Del Monte Gold pineapple produced in Hawaii first hit our shelves.The new type of pineapple looked more yellowy-gold than green. It was slightly softer on the outside and had a lot of juice inside. But the most important thing about this new type of pineapple was that it was twice as sweet as the hit-and-miss pineapples we had known. In no time, the Del Monte Gold took the market by storm, rapidly becoming the world’s best-selling pineapple variety, and delivering natural levels of sweetness in the mouth, up until then only found in tinned pineapple.In nutrition it was all good news too. This nice tasting pineapple contained four times more vitamin C than the old green variety. Nutritionists said that it was not only full of vitamins, but also good against some diseases. People were understandably eager to be able to buy this wonderful fruit. The new type of pineapple was selling fast, and the Del Monte Gold pineapple rapidly became a fixture in the shopping basket of the healthy eater.Seeing the growing market for its winning pineapple, Del Monte tried to keep market to itself. But other fruit companies argued successfully that Del Monte turned to law for help, but failed. Those companies argued successfully that Del Monte’s attempts to keep the golden pineapple for itself were just a way to knock them out the market.24. We learn from the text that the new type at pineapple is __________.A. green outside and sweet insideB. good-looking outside and soft insideC. yellowy-gold outside and hard insideD. a little soft outside and sweet inside25. Why was the new type of pineapple selling well?A. It was rich in nutrition and tasted nice.B. It was less sweet and good for health.C. It was developed by Del Monte.D. It was used as medicine.26. The underlined word “fixture” in Paragraph 3 probably refers to something _________.A. that people enjoy eatingB. that is always presentC. that is difficult to getD. that people use as a gift27. We learn from the last paragraph that Del Monte _________.A. slowed other companies to develop pineapplesB. succeeded in keeping the pineapple for itselfC. tried hard to control the pineapple marketD. planned to help the other companiesCEssentially, everyone has two ages: a chronological(按时间计算的)age, how old the calendar says you are, and a biological age, basically the age at which your body functions as it compares to average fitness or health levels.“Chronological age isn’t how old we really are. It’s merely a number,” said Professor David Sinclair at Harvard University. “It is biological age that determines our health and ultimately our lifespan. We all age biologically at different rates according to our genes, what we eat, how much we exercise, and what environment we live in. Biological age is the number of candles we really should be blowing out. In the future, with advances in our ability to control biological age, we may have even fewer candles on our birthday cake than the previous one.To calculate biological age, Professor Levine at Yale University identified ninebio-makers that seemed to be the most influential on lifespan by a simple blood test. The numbers of those markers, such as blood sugar and immune measures, can be put into thecomputer, and the algorithm(算式)does the rest.Perhaps what’s most important here is that these measures can be ch anged. Doctors can take this information and help patients make changes to lifestyle, and hopefully take steps to improve their biological conditions. “I think the most exciting thing about this research is that these things aren’t set in stone,” Levine said. “People can be given the information earlier and take steps to improve their health before it’s too late.”Levine even entered her own numbers into the algorithm. She was surprised by the results. “I always considered myself a very healthy person. I’m physically activ e;I eat what I consider a fairly healthy diet. But I did not find my results to be as good as I had hoped they would be. It was a wake-up call,” she said.Levine is working with a group to provide access to the algorithm online so that anyone can calculate their biological age, identify potential risks and take steps to improve their health in the long run. “No one wants to live an extremely longlife with a lot of chronic(慢性的)diseases,” Levine said. “By delaying the development of mental and physical functioning problems, people can still be engaged in society in their senior years. That is the ideal we should be pursuing.”28. Biological age depends on ______.A. whether we can adapt ourselves to the environmentB. when we start to take outdoor exerciseC. how well our body works compared with our peers’D. what the calendar says about our age29. By saying “we may have even fewer candles on our birthday cake than the previous one.” in Para. 2, the author means ______.A. we are chronologically older than last yearB. we might be less happy than the previous yearC. we don’t have to celebrate our birthday every yearD. we may be biologically younger than the year before30. What does the author want to tell us by Levine’s example in Pa ra. 5?A. It is necessary to change our diet regularly.B. The test results may give us wrong information.C. Waking up early in the morning is good for our fitness.D. The algorithm can reveal our potential health problems.31. The ultimate g oal of Levine’s research is to ______.A. provide people with access to scientific theoryB. work out a solution to genetic problemsC. keep people socially active even in old ageD. free people from chronic diseasesDEnough “meaningless drivel”. That’s the message from a group of members of the UK government who have been examining how social media firms like LinkedIn gather and use social media data.The House of Commons Science and Technology Committee’s report, released last week, has blamed firms for making people sign up to long incomprehensible legal contracts and calls for an international standard or kitemark (认证标记) to identify sites that have clear terms and conditions. “The term and conditions statement that we all carelessly agree to i s meaningless drivel to anyone,” says Andrew Miller, the chair of the committee. Instead, he says, firms should provide a plain-English version of their terms. The simplified version would be checked by a third party and awarded a kitemark if it is an accurate reflection of the original.It is not yet clear who would administer the scheme, but the UK government is looking at introducing it on a voluntary basis. “we need to think through how we make that work in practice,” says Miller.Would we pay any more attention to a kitemark? “I think if you went and did the survey, people would like to think they would,” says Nigel Shadbolt at the University of Southampton, UK, who studies open data. “We do know people worry a lot about theinappropriate use of their i nformation.” But what would happen in practice is another matter, he says.Other organizations such as banks ask customers to sign long contracts they may not read or understand, but Miller believes social media requires special attention because it is so new. “We still don’t know how significant the long-term impact is going to be of unwise things that kids put on social media that come back and bite them in 20 years’ time,” he says.Shadbolt, who gave evidence to the committee, says the problem is that we don’t know how companies will use our data because their business models and uses of data are still evolving.Large collections of personal information have become valuable only rec ently, he says.The shock and anger when a social media firm does something with data that people don’t expect, even if users have apparently permission, show that the current situation isn’t working. If properly administered, a kitemark on terms and conditions could help people know what exactly they are signing up to. Although they would still have to actually read them.32. What does the phrase “meaningless drivel”in paragraphs 1 and2 refer to?A. Guidelines on how to use social media websites properly.B. Warnings from the UK government against unsafe websites.C. Legal contracts that social media firms make people sign up to.D. Insignificant data collected by social media firms.33.It can be inferred from the passage that Nigel Shadbolt doubts whethe r _______.A. social media firms would conduct a survey on the kitemark scheme .B. people would pay as much attention to a kitemark as they think.C. a kitemark scheme would be workable on a nationwide scale.D. the kitemark would help companies develop their business models.34. Andrew Miller thinks social media needs more attention than banksmainly because ______A. their users consist largely of kids under 20 years old.B. the language in their contracts is usually harder to understand.C. the information they collected could become more valuable in futu re.D. it remains unknown how users’data will be taken advantage of.35. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A. Say no to social media?B. New security rules in operation?C. Accept without reading?D. Administration matters!第二节 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)36 You probably think you will never be a top student. This is not necessarily so, however. Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to. Here’s how: Plan your time carefully. When planning your work, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making this list, you should make a schedule of your time. First your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular timefor studying. 37 A weekly schedule may not solve all your problems, but it will force you realize what is happening to your time.Find a good place to study. Look around the house for a good study area. Keep this space, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials. No games, radios, or television. When you sit down to study, concentrate on the subject.Make good use of your time in class. 38 Listening carefully in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.Study regularly. When you get home from school, go over your notes, review the important points that your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read that material.39 If you do these things regularly, the material will become more meaningful, and you’ll remember it longer.Develop a good attitude towards tests. The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. They help you remember your new knowledge. The world won’t end if you don’t pass a test, so don’t be over worried.40 You will probably discover many others after you have tried these.A. There are other methods that might help you with your studying.B. Don’t forget to set aside enough time for entertainment.C. Take advantage of class time to listen to everything the teacher says.D. No one can become a top student unless he or she works hard.E. Make full use of class time to take notes of what the teacher says in class.F. Maybe you are an average student.G. This will help you understand the next class.第三部分语言知识运用第一节完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)In the summer before I entered middle school, I read the book They Cage the Animalsat Night.

A phenomenon known as “in-need-of-praise” has taken Chinese social media by storm. Users can now join a chat group on WeChat or QQ, where they will 61 (praise) and gain encouragement from others —for a price. The “in-need-of-praise” chat groups are a reflection of Chinese culture 62 values modesty and humility ( 谦逊), leading many people to often cover their true emotions. In Chinese culture, 63 (open) seeking and giving praise is uncommon. The trend seemed to have started with a chat group on the platform Douban four years ago. Since March many other chat groups 64 (become) popular, especially among young people. For them, gaining recognition from peers is more important than getting approval from older generations. They can feel 65 sense of belonging and gain praise in these chat groups, which is 66 (benefit) to their mental health. It’s also an outlet for users to show 67 (kind) and support each other. Life pressure can be big enough, so we need to be surrounded by warm 68 (word), or even some blind confidence. But anyone 69 (receive) or giving praise in such groups should be cautious. The biggest risk is the constant focus on the “false self,” which makes 70 harder to see the “true self”.61. be praised 62. that/which 63. openly 64. have become 65. a66. beneficial 67. kindness 68. words 69. receiving 70. it深圳市高级中学2020届高三上学期第一次测试第二节 (共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。

(共10小题,每小题2.5分,满分25分)AWhat's on Your Pet's Mind?In 1977, Irene Pepperberg of Harvard University began studying what was on another creature's mind by talking to it. Her first experiments began with Alex. Alex was a one-year-old African grey parrot and Irene taught him to produce the sounds of the English language. "I thought if he learned to communicate, I could ask him questions about how he sees the world."At the time, most scientists didn't believe animals had any thoughts. They thought animals were more like robots but didn't have the ability to think or feel. Of course, if you own a pet you probably disagree. But it is the job of a scientist to prove this and nowadays more scientists accept that animals can think for themselves."That's why I started my studies with Alex," Irene said, "Some people actually called me crazy for trying this."Nowadays, we have more and more evidence that animals have all sorts of mental abilities. Sheep can recognize faces. Chimpanzees(黑猩猩)use a variety of tools and even use weapons to hunt. And Alex the parrot became a very good talker.Thirty years after the Alex studies began, Irene was still giving him English lessons up until his recent death. For example, if Alex was hungry he could say "want grape". Alex could count to six and was learning the sounds for seven and eight. "He has to hear the words over and over before he can correctly say them." Irene said, after pronouncing "seven" for Alex a few times in a row. Alex could also tell the difference between colors, shapes, sizes, and materials (e.g. wood and metal). Before he finally died, Alex managed to say "seven".Another famous pet that proved some animals have greater mental skills was a dog called Rico. He appeared on a German TV game show in 2011. Rico knew the names of 200 different toys and easily learned the names of new ones. When Rico became famous, many other dog owners wanted to show how clever their pets were. Another dog called Betsy could understand 300 words.One theory for dogs' ability to learn a language is that they have been close companions to humans for many centuries and so their ability to understand us is constantly evolving. While animals can't do what humans do yet, some scientists believe that examples like Alex and Rico prove that evolution develops intelligence, as well as physical appearance.1.Irene wanted to find out .A.what a parrot thinks B.why a parrot can speakC.how parrots make sounds D.if parrots speak English2.Alex learnt new words by .A.singing them B.reading them C.writing them D.rehearing them 3.The article concludes that .A.our pets understand what we sayB.dogs may speak to humans one dayC.humans are related to chimpanzeesD.mental ability can evolve in animalsBIt's amazing how we grow from careless kids to responsible teens. What happens in the course that makes us responsible now? It's the seed that we sow in the beginning which grows and becomes a huge tree. As I sit here, silently thinking about my growth, I wonder over some questions which don't have an answer but it's because of such unanswerable situations that life has become a roller coaster ride.As a kid, I used to read a lot of story books. In one particular book, I read a story of a bird. From then on, that has become an integral (必不可少的) part of my life. It described a male bird which takes a lot of pain to build a nest and the female bird takes shelter in it and nourishes the baby. When the bird learns to fly, the whole family flies off to a different place leaving behind the beautiful nest for other birds to grow their family in it. It made me wonder. How could they so easily sacrifice their house built with so much effort?One night, when I was deep in sleep, I got this particular dream. I was walking miles on the endless road, totally isolated but lined with beautiful trees on the either side. Fascinated by the greenery, I marched towards it only to end up deeper and deeper into the greenery. I happened to stop upon seeing something. It was a massive, wonderful house. I fell in love with that amazing part of art. Yeah, it was indeed a piece of art with every nook and corner touched artistically and lovingly. I don't know why I felt that it was done lovingly. Maybe because, things turn out to be beautiful only when we put our love into it — just like the food prepared by mom which tastes more delicious with her love.I explored the house only to fall more in love with it. There was a sloping roof which matched with the greenery around;the large central open courtyard reminded me of the activities that might have taken place there which felt lively even now when it is completely deserted. The small water body that kept the house cool added to the beauty of the house — of course, it was all dried up now. It's really wonderful how such things add life to the spaces which otherwise just become structures. Such liveliness and happening turns the house into a home. They say 'THE HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS', but now I began to feet it. This is where my heart belongs. This is what I'm destined to do.When I woke up from the dream, I was clear about everything. I realized where that mile of walk was intending me to lead. I realized what message my dream wanted to convey me. And years later, when finally my turn of choosing my destination came, I simply closed my eyes, held that book in my hand, pressed it against my chest and relived the dream. When I opened my eyes, I was sure what to do. I decided to choose the road — less traveled. Yes, I took up architecture as my profession because this is what I am destined to do. I wanted to do the same thing that the male bird in the story did, to take pain in building a beautiful house and let others stay in it. This is my dream come true and the happiness that I gain now from this profession is indescribable. 4.When the writer read the story of the bird, he probably felt .A.upset B.confused C.amazed D.amused5.To the writer, "the seed that we sow in the beginning" (Paragraph 1) is .A.the house in his dream B.his mother's foodC.the story of the bird D.his story books6.The above passage is mainly about .A.how the writer finally becomes an honest citizenB.where the true meaning of responsibility liesC.what we need to do when we are seeking fortuneD.why the writer takes up architecture as his careerCYou may have heard of the man who decided to repair the roof of his house. To be safe, he tied a rope around his waist and threw the other end of it over the top of the house. He asked his son to tie it to something secure. The boy fastened the safety rope to the bumper of their car parked in the driveway. It seemed like a good idea at the time. But a little while later, his wife, unaware of the rope securing her husband, she started the car and drove away. Imagine what the result would be.This story, factual or not, points to a great truth. It is a truth about where we place our security; about those things to which we've tied our safety lines. What is your rope tied to? Think about it. What do you depend on to keep you from disaster? Is your rope tied to a good job? Is it tied to a relationship with somebody you rely on? Is it tied to a company or an organization?Writer Susan Taylor tells of discovering how unreliable some of our safety lines really are. She tells of lying in bed in the early hours of the morning when an earthquake struck. As her house shook, she fell out of bed and managed to go to the doorway, watching in horror as her whole house cracked down around her. Where her bed had once stood, she later discovered nothing but a pile of bricks. She lost everything —every button, every dish, her automobile, every article of clothing. Susan trembled, scared and crying, in the darkness. In the early morning she cried and called out for help.Thoroughly exhausted, she thought that maybe she should be listening for rescuers instead of crying. So she grew still and listened. In the silence around her, the only sound she heard was the beating of her own heart. It occurred to her then that at least she was still alive and, amazingly enough, unhurt.She thought about her situation. In the stillness, fear abandoned her and a feeling of indescribable peace and happiness flooded in, the likes of which she had never before known. It was an experience that was to change her life forever.In the deepest part of her being, Susan realized a remarkable truth. She realized she had nothing to fear. Amazingly, whether or not she was ever rescued, whether she ever made it out alive, she sensed she had nothing to fear.For the first time in her life she understood that her true security did not depend on those things in which she had placed her trust. It lay deep within. And also for the first time, she knew what it was to be content in all circumstances. She realized that whether she had plenty or hardly enough, somehow she would be all right. She just knew it. She later wrote, "Before the quake I appeared very successful, but my life was out of balance. I wasn't happy because I had been making money and always wanting more. My home, my job, my clothes, a relationship —I thought they were my security. It took an earthquake and losing everything I owned for me to discover that my security had been with me all along...There's a power within us that we can depend upon no matter what is happening around us."She had tied her rope to the wrong things. It took a disaster for her to understand that those things are not trustworthy. So she let go of the rope and discovered peace. She found that her true security was a power within-dependable and sure.What is your rope tied to? And what would happen if you found the courage to let go of it? 7.Why was Susan crying in the darkness?A.Because she was afraid of staying in the dark.B.Because she wanted to be heard by the rescuers.C.Because she was frightened and felt helpless.D.Because she had tied her rope to the wrong thing.8.What did Susan feel after she thought about her situation?A.She felt very peaceful. B.She felt she was still alive.C.She felt completely hopeless. D.She wanted to change her life forever.9.How did Susan like interpersonal relationship and income before the earthquake?A.They were alternative. B.They were unnecessary.C.They were very important. D.They were among some choices.10.Which of the following should be the best title?A.What to Depend on. B.A Rope Tied to a Car.C.Please Let Go of Your Trust. D.An Experience from an Earthquake.二、英语知识运用(共两节,满分55分)1.完形填空(共20小题; 每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A,B,C,D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Since some of you haven’t been here before, let me tell you something about our sea park. Ocean Life is set in fantastic grounds and we advise you to spend several hours wandering around. There are over forty shows, as well as plenty of other activities for all the family. We feel that it is better that some sea creatures such as whales and sharks aren’t kept in a sea park, because they have better lives in their natural homes. However, although you won’t see these creatures here, you will learn about them in many of our interesting and educational shows. Education is important, but we know that being interested while finding things out is more important, especially for our younger visitors. Our specially trained staff can answer any of your questions about the sea, sea life, pollution and protection. We also encourage school visits,and help teachers by providing information and ideas for use in the classroom. Ocean Life is also known for saving sea creatures. We offer care for injured creatures sent to us and we return them to their natural homes when they are strong enough. We also take part in many projects throughout the world, and it is our aim to make sure that our visitors become aware of the problems and dangers that affect sea life.

When he is on song, his style is forceful, disturbing and delectable. But he is a restless writer. He came into his own in the enthusiastic and experimental atmosphere of the New Wave, and he has been driven to try the new and the different ever since. That he is still experimenting now, 50 years after his first appearance, is a measure of a man who has never been prepared to settle back on his laurels.The Secrets of Jin-Shei by Alma AlexanderReviewed by Donna McMahonWith so many fantasy novels using European-derived settings and mythology, ancient China makes a refreshing change. The landscape is tempting and yet familiar enough to feel very real, and the author uses magic sparingly, in ways appropriate to her society. This and the complex detail put into the backdrop makes the novel feel very much like historical fiction.Straken by T erry BrooksReviews by Nathan BrazilThe third novel in the High Druid of Shannara series jumps straight back into the story where it left off.

A new survey also shows more than 28 million people in the UK regularly get no more than seven hours sleep a night. Prof Richard Wiseman, who commissioned the YouGov poll described the findings as "extremely worrying". Of the 2,149 adults questioned, 78% said they used electronicdevices before going to bed. This rose to 91% among the 18 to 24-year-olds questioned in the survey.Getting less than seven hours sleep a night is below the recommended guidelines, and is associated with a range of problems, including an increased risk of weight gain, heart attacks, diabetes and cancer. "The blue light from these devices suppresses(压制)the production of the sleep-inducing hormone melatonin, so it's important to avoid them before bed time," said Prof Richard Wiseman, from the University of Hertfordshire.Everyone needs different amounts of sleep, but adults are generally thought to require a minimum of seven to eight hours a night. Teenagers are recommended to get more, about nine hours. The proportion(比例)of people thought to be getting too little sleep had risen by a fifth since a "bedroom poll" conducted last year by the National Sleep Foundation.Last week revealed opticians were warning that overuse of smartphones may be increasing people's risk of eye damage. Optician Andy Hepworth said: "Blue violet light is potentially harmful to the back of your eyes. "So over a long period of time it can damage your eyes. When you're looking at a smart phone, the light peaking out of that is blue violet. The news came as a survey of 2,000 people suggests under-25s check their phones 32 times a day.24. The purpose of the passage is to ________________________.A. stress that people don’t use smartphone s.B. remind people of enough sleep.C. ask people not sleep too much.D. tell people not to use smartphones before bed25.

More than 90% young people expose themselves to the blue light from smart phones before bed.C. Of the 2,149 adults questioned, 91% said they used electronic devices before going to bed.D. The news came as a survey of 2,000 people suggests under-25s check their phones 30 times a day.26. According to what Andy Hepworth said, overuse of smartphones may be increasing people's risk of __________.A. weight gainB. cancerC. eye damageD. heart attacks27. Teenagers are generally thought to get sleep of _________ a night.A .about 9 hours B. 7-8 hours C. less than 7 hours D. more than 10 hours3.Speed-reading is a necessary skill in the Internet age.We skim over articles, e-mails and WeChat to try to grasp key words and the essential meaning of a certain text.Surrounded with information from our electronic devices, it would be impossible to cope if we read word by word, line by line.But a new trend calls on people to unplug and enjoy reading slowly, listing benefits beyond the intelligent stimulation.A recent story from The Wall Street Journal reported on a book club in Wellington, New Zealand, where members meet in a cafe and turn off their smartphones.They sink into cozy chairs and read in silence for an hour.Unlike traditional book clubs, the point of the slow reading club isn't exchanging ideas about a certain book, but to get away from electronic devices and read in a quiet, relaxed environment.According to the Journal, the Wellington book club is just one example of a movement started by book lovers who miss the old-fashioned way of reading before the Internet and smartphones.Slow readers, such as The Atlantic's Maura Kelly, say a regular reading habit sharpens the mind, improves concentration, reduces stress levels and deepens the ability to sympathize.Another study published last year in Science showed that reading novels helps people understand other's mental states and beliefs, a fundamental skill in building relationships.Yet technology has made us less attentive readers.Screens have changed our reading patterns from the straight and information.left-to-right sequence to a wild skimming and skipping pattern as we hunt for important words and information. Reading text punctuated with links leads to weaker comprehension than reading plain text. The Internet may have made us stupider, says Patrick Kingsley from The Guardian.Because of the Internet, he says, we have become very good at collecting a wide range of interesting news, but we are also gradually forgetting how to sit back, reflect, and relate all these facts to each other.Slow reading means a return to an uninterrupted, straight pattern, in a quiet environment free of distractions. Aim for 30 minutes a day, advises Kelly from The Atlantic.“You can squeeze in that half hour p retty easily if only during your free moments, you pick up a meaningful work of literature,” Kelly said.“Reach for your e-reader, if you like.Kindles make books like War and Peace less heavy, not less substantive, and also ensure you'll never lose your place.”28.The book club in Wellington mentioned in Paragraph 2 shows____________.A.the new trend of slow reading B.the decline ofelectronic devicesC.the importance of exchanging ideas D.the increasing number of club readers29.According to Patrick Kingsley, people are stupider partly because of_____________.A.a non-stop reading pattern B.the straight, left-to-right screenC.a wide range of interesting news D.the lack of reflection 30.According to the passage, slow reading___________.A.contributes to understanding among peopleB.promotes the current technology advancesC.provides people with a quiet environmentD.cures the memory loss of elderly people31.What's the best title for the passage?A.Benefit of Reading Clubs.B.Return of Slow Reading.C.Reading of the Internet Age.D.Influence of Speed Reading.4.If you could travel in time, where would you go? Perhaps you would watch an original performance of a Shakespeare’s play in Elizabethan England? What about hanging out with Laozi in the Spring and Autumn Period? Or maybe you’d voyage far ahead of the present day to see what the future holds.The possibility of time travel is indeed appealing. Stories exploring the subject have been around for hundreds of years. Perhaps the best known example is science fiction novel The Time Machine, which was written by H.G.Wells and published in 1895 for the first time. It was adapted into at least two feature films of the same name, as well as two television versions, and a large number of comic book adaptations. It is generally credited with the popularization of the concept of time travel using a vehicle that allows an operator to travel purposefully and selectively. The term “time machine”, coined by Wells, is now universally used to refer to a vehicle transportingpeople into the far future.But could time travel actually be possible? Some scientists say yes, in theory. They propose using cracks in time and space called “wormholes”, which could be used as shortcuts to other periods.Einstein's theory of relativity allows time travel in extreme circumstances.And British physicist Stephen Hawking says you could travel into the future with a really fast spaceship—going at nearly the speed of light.Though building such a spaceship would of course be no simple task.Even if you could travel into the past, there is something called the “grandfather paradox”.It asks what would happen if a time traveler were to go back in time and have his own grandfather killed for some reason, and therefore prevent himself from being born.If the time traveler wasn't born, how would he travel back in time?And would you really like to visit the future? In H.G.Wells' book, the main character travels into distant time where he arrives at a beach and is attacked by giant crabs.He then voyages 30 million years into the future where the only living thing is a black object with tentacles(触角).If that's what's in store, maybe we are better just living in the present day after all.32.The novel The Time Machine mentioned in Paragraph 2 aims to show___________.A.People's interest in time travel B.the special feature of the bookC.the long history of time travel D.the contribution of H.G.Wells33.Einstein's and Hawking's theories_________.A.have similarities in many waysB.push the invention of the first spaceshipC.have proved wrong by some time travelersD.suggest the possibility to invent the time machine34.In Paragraph 4,“grandfather paradox” probably refers to the idea that__________.A.the traveler is prevented from meeting his grandfatherB.the traveler goes back in time to seek for his grandfatherC.the grandfather's death makes the traveler's birth impossibleD.The reunion of the traveler and his grandfather brings happiness35.According to the passage, what is probably the author's attitude towards time travel?A.Unclear B.Skeptical C.Supportive D.Unconcerned.二、阅读填空(共2题)1.Thank you for reading the privacy policy of our website.

It didn’t even cross my mind that he might feel 41 when people whispered about him. So I just let them talk.Then ca me the day when I learned my little brother Martin’s testing for autism (自闭症) came out positive (阳性). I had never thought about him like that. I broke 42 , crying.

So Martin and I both started at a new school. One day, I was standing in the bus line waiting when a “ short ” bus (for the retarded) came and 46 up some kids. The children in the other line started making 47 about the “ retarded ” on that bus and I felt a 48 feeling in my heart. I said quietly that those comments weren’t very nice, 49 no one listened.My family moved again. In the new school I got a 50 to speak up pretty soon. That day, in a band class, my teacher 51 our playing to make some comments, “ …Guys, we’re playing like the kids on the short bus! Come on! ” The entire room was laughing loudly. I felt very 52 .
