2022年高考英语一轮复习：阅读理解+七选五组合练习题3Part A（1）Six annoying “facts”people have to finally stop believing in1.Walt Disney did not create Mickey Mouse.His close friend and collaborator Ub Iwerks did, though he was “denied credit”for creating this major piece of pop culture history. Iwerks came up with the character in 1928.2.Albert Einstein never flunked a math class as a child.When the adult Einstein was shown a newspaper article claiming he had, he replied, “Before I was 15, I had mastered differential and integral calculus.(微积分)”While Einstein achieved high grades throughout his childhood education, he “hated the strict protocols followed by teachers and rote learning demanded of students”at the schools he attended.3. Napoleon Bonaparte was not short.Despite the fact that his name has become synonymous with “angry short man,”Napoleon Bonaparte was actually of average height for the time period in which he lived. His contemporaries described him as being 5'2", but the French measured height differently back in the day, so he was actually around 5'5". That made him just “an inch or so below the period’s average adult male height.”4. Isaac Newton didn't discover gravity because an apple struck him on the head.Rather, he witnessed an apple falling and wondered why objects always fall down instead of up or sideways, a thought that inspired his Law of Universal Gravitation.5. Bats are not blind.No, bats are not blind. Bats have small eyes with very sensitive vision, which helps them see in conditions we might consider pitch black. They don't have the sharp and colorful vision humans have, but they don't need that.6. Black holes.Not really “holes,”but rather hugely dense objects with massive gravitational pull.1. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Unable to achieve high grades at school, Einstein hated the rigid rules.B.Bats have small eyes but with the same sharp and colorful vision as humans.C. Newton discovered gravity out of curiosity but by accident.D. Black holes are huge objects with massive gravitational push.2. The text is written here in order to_______________.A. present some common beliefs.B. clarify some popular myths.C. relate some interesting stories.D. list some historical facts.3. Which section of a magazine may this text be found in?A. EntertainmentB. HistoryC. EducationD. Popular science（2）We all know that a healthy life means getting both plenty of exercise and enough good-quality sleep, but reality often gets in the way. The new research indicates that doing enough exercise could make up for some of the unhealthy impacts of bad sleep. While the health benefits of exercise and sleep are nothing new, it's the relationship between them that is interesting in this particular study —it could even give doctors another option to suggest for patients dealing with sleep problems.“We found those who had both the poorest sleep quality and who exercised the least were most at risk of death from heart disease, stroke, and cancer,”says epidemiologist Bo-Huei Huang, from the University of Sydney in Australia.Participants were grouped into three levels of physical activity (high, medium or low) and were also given a sleep quality score from 0-5 based on the amount of shut-eye they got, how late they stayed up, insomnia, snoring and daytime sleepiness.Those with the highest risk of dying from cancer or heart disease during the study period were those with the worst quality sleep and who didn't meet the WHO recommended guidelines for exercise. That risk went down for people with poor quality sleep but who did meet the exercise guidelines.In the case of all forms of cancer, for example, those at the unhealthiest end of the sleep and exercise scale had a 45 percent higher risk of dying from cancer than those with good sleep scores who kept physically active. However, that risk just about disappeared for those who didn't score well on sleep but did score well on physical activity.For now it's not clear why more exercise might make up for poor sleep, as far as our health goes. It could be that the increased activity is counteracting inflammation（炎症）, or reducing irregularities in glucose metabolism, suggest the researchers.“Considering that physical activity is perhaps more modifiable than sleep, our study offers people more health incentives to be physically active.”says population health researcher Emmanuel Stamatakis, from the University of Sydney.4. This research is of particular interest in that ______________.A. it’s in this study that exercise is known to be beneficial to sleep.B. this study offers people more health treatments to be physical active.C. it could enable doctors to cure patients of their sleeping condition.D. the relationship between exercise and sleep is updated in this study.5. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Those who had the poorest sleep quality were most at risk of death fromheart disease.B. Those scoring lowest on sleep and exercise scale were more likely to die from cancer.C. There’s no risk of cancer for those who didn't sleep well but did score well on physical activity.D. It's evident that in terms of health more exercise could make up for poor sleep.6. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 6 mean?A. interactingB. increasingC. preventingD. causing7.Where can this passage most probably be taken from?A. A research findings reportB. A medical examination reportC. A poor sleep study reportD. A physical activity study report（3）A growing body of research is revealing associations between birth defects(缺陷) and a father's age, alcohol use and environmental factors, say researchers at Georgetown University Medical Center. They say these defects result from epigenetic changes that can potentially affect multiple generations.The study, published in the American Journal of Stem Cells, suggest both parents contribute to the health status of their offspring------a common sense conclusion which science is only now beginning to demonstrate, says the study's senior investigator, Joanna Kitlinska, PhD, an associate professor in biochemistry, and molecular and cellular biology.“We know the nutritional, hormonal and psychological environment provided by the mother permanently influences organ structure, cellular response and gene expression in her offspring,”she says.“But our study shows the same thing to be true with fathers—his lifestyle, and how old he is, can be reflected in molecules that control gene function,”she says. “In this way, a father can affect not only his immediate offspring, but future generations as well.”For example, a newborn can be diagnosed with fetal(胎儿的) alcohol spectrum disorder(FASD), even though the mother has never consumed alcohol, Kitlinska says. “Up to 75 percent of children with FASD have biological fathers who are alcoholics, suggesting that preconceptual paternal alcohol consumption negatively impacts their offspring.”Advanced age of a father is correlated with elevated rates of certain diseases,and birth defects in his children. A limited diet during a father’s preadolescence has been linked to reduced risk of cardiovascular death in his children and grandchildren. Paternal obesity is linked to enlarged fat cells, changes in metabolic regulation, diabetes, obesity and development of brain cancer. Psychosocial stress on the father is linked to defective behavioral traits in his offspring. And paternal alcohol use leads to decreased newborn birth weight, marked reduction in overall brain size and impaired cognitive function.“This new field of inherited paternal epigenetics needs to be organized into clinically applicable recommendations and lifestyle alternations,”Kitlinska says. “And to really understand the epigenetic influences of a child, we need to study the interplay between maternal and paternal effects, as opposed to considering each in isolation.”8. What’s the message the writer conveys in the passage?A.Both parents contribute to the health status of their offspring.B.Father’s age and lifestyle are tied to birth defects.C.Father plays a more critical role in birth defects.D.Birth defects can potentially affect multiple generations.9. What can we infer from the example in Paragraph 5?A.FASD can only be diagnosed in a newborn whose father is addicted to alcohol.B.A newborn will not contract FASD if his mother has never consumed alcohol.C.A father’s lifestyle can negatively impact his offspring.D.Most children have biological fathers who are alcoholics.10. Which of the following situations is less likely to lead to children’s birth defects?A. Having a father with a limited diet.B. Having a father who is an alcoholic.C. Having an overweight father.D. Having a father with psychosocial stress.11. What will the research probably continue to focus on in the part that follows?A.The maternal epigenetic influences of a childB.The ways to avoid negative paternal influence on children.C.The clinical application of the research findings.D.The interaction between maternal and paternal effects.（4）Ivy League schools are considered to be the most prestigious of all colleges in the United States. These schools are primarily located in the Northeastern part of the country. There are eight total colleges that are considered to be Ivy League. These schools are Brown, Harvard, Cornell, Princeton, Dartmouth, Yale, and Columbia universities and the University of Pennsylvania. Of all institutions of higher learning, these elite schools are considered to be the most outstanding and the most sought-after in terms of acceptance and graduation.The term “Ivy League”came about in 1954 when the NCAA athletic conference for Division I was formed. At the time, the elitism of these schools was really due to their prestige in the realm of sports like basketball. Although the term “Ivy League”was not created until the 1950s, many of these schools were in existence as far back as 1636, when John Harvard became the first benefactor of Harvard University.Although this group of elite schools is considered to be part of one big league of the elite, there have been plenty of internal rivalries over the years. The sports that these colleges play were so popular that some teams began playing games in New York City so spectators could come from far away and watch the games. The popularity of both the athletes who played and the college team rivalries brought in a good deal of attention to the schools as well as revenue from ticket sales. There have also been academic rivalries between schools. Mostly, these rivalries are a matter of opinion in terms of which school has the most honor graduates, which schools offer the most prestigious scholarships, and what famous graduates have come from each school.Each Ivy League college has its own unique accomplishments that make it important. All carry a certain reputation with them, and each school has programs that excel primarily in the medical and law fields, making them some of the most sought-after schools in the world. Their admission process is very selective, which helps the schools ensure that they only accept the best and brightest. Many famouspeople have graduated from Ivy League schools, including recent presidents George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and Barack Obama. This prestige leads many to believe that these colleges are only for the wealthy and elite. Often, companies look for Ivy League graduates as potential employees, usually preferred by law firms, medical facilities, and large corporations. It has long been coveted to have earned a degree from an Ivy League school. Today, the Ivy League schools are still excellent in both academia and in sports, and they have left a legacy of higher education with an exceptional track record and reputation to go along with them.12. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Ivy League schools were initially famous for their reputation in sports.B. Ivy League schools didn’t come into existence until the 1950s.C. Ivy League schools do not compete with each other within the league.D. Ivy League schools are most popular for their excellence in the medical and law fields.13. Which of the following aspects is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. The history of the Ivy LeagueB. The rivalry of the Ivy LeagueC. The accomplishments and cultural impacts of the Ivy LeagueD. The future development of the Ivy League14. Why do many people believe that Ivy League colleges are only for the wealthy and elite?A. Because they are the most sought-after schools in the world.B. Because they have selective admission process to help ensure the quality of their students.C. Because many famous people have graduated from Ivy League schools.D. Because many companies look for Ivy League graduates as potential employees.15. What does the underlined word “coveted”in the last paragraph probably mean?A. advocatedB. desiredC. restrictedD.sponsoredPart B阅读下面短文，从短文后选项中选出可填入空白处的最佳选项。

Professor Chris Idzikowski has described six different positions and what each one says about a person's character. The professor, who did the research for a hotel group, said, “We are all aware of our body language when we are awake but this is the first time we have been able to see what our position says about us when we are asleep.” At the moment, Professor Idzikowski is trying to sleep in a yoga position that involves crossing your legs around your neck. He says there is no perfect position for sleeping.1．THE STARFISH“Starfish” sleep flat on their back with their arms raised. They are good listeners who make friends easily but do not like to be the centre of the attention.2．THE YEARNER“Yearners” sleep on their side with their arms raised. They are doubtful and have a very sensible approach to life.3．THE FOETUSThe most popular position, particularly among women. They sleep curled (蜷缩) up on their side, holding on to the pillow. They appear to be tough but are actually sensitive and shy.4．THE FREEFALLEROnly 6.5% of people prefer to sleep on their front, making this the least popular sleeping position. “Freefallers” seem very confident, although this hides a nervous personality.5．THE LOGThe “log” position is similar to the “yearner” but with arms by thesides. “Logs” are easygoing and sociable, but can be seen as too gullible,_easily to be victims.6．THE SOLDIER“Soldiers”，who sleep on their back with their arms by their sides, are quiet and reserved. They set high standards for themselves and do not like noisy social situations.【语篇解读】文章介绍了不同的睡眠姿势所体现出来的不同性格。
阅读理解D篇3+七选五组合练三
★2023年4月 n 日★阅读理解D篇3+七选五组合练三第一节：阅读理解典例1：（北京丰台·一模）If you think about it, work-life balance is a strange ambition for a fulfilling life. Balance is about stasis: if our lives were ever in balance-parents happy, kids taken care of, work working-then our overriding thought would be to shout “Nobody move!” and pray all would stay perfect forever. This false hope is made worse by the categories themselves. They imply that work is bad, and life is good. And so the challenge, we are told, is to balance the heaviness of work with the lightness of life.Yet work is not the opposite of life. It is instead a part of life-just as family is, as are friends and community. All of these aspects of living have their share of uplifting moments and moments that drag us down. The same is true of work. Treat work the same way you do life: by maximizing what you love.We have interviewed several anesthesiologists (麻醉师) about the thrills they feel in their jobs. One said he loved the thrill of holding each patient hovering at that one precise point between life and death. Another said she loved the bedside conversations before the operation aiming to calm the panic that affects many patients. Another was drawn mostly to the anesthetic mechanism and has devoted himself to defining precisely how each drug does what it does.Think of your life’s many different activities as threads. Some are black and some are white. But some of these activities appear to be made of a different substance. These activities contain all the tell-tale signs of love: before you do them, you find yourself looking forward to them; while you’re doing them, time speeds up and you find yourself in flow; and after you’ve done them, you feel energetic. These are your red threads, and research by the Mayo Clinic suggests that doctors who weave the fabric of their life with at least 20% red threads are significantly less likely to experience burnout.The simplest way for you to do this is to spend a week in love with your job. During the week, any time you find yourself feeling one of the signs of love write down exactly what you were doing in the column “Love”. And any time you find yourself feeling the inverse write down what you were doing in the column “Loathe”. By the end of the week you will see a list of activities in your “Love” column, which create in you a positive feeling, one that draws you in and lifts you up.Our goal should be to, little by little, week by week, intentionally unbalance all aspects of our work toward the former and away from the latter. Not simply to make us feel better, but so that our colleagues, our friends and our family can all benefit from us at our very best.25．What is the author’s attitude towards work-life balance?A．Doubtful. B．Disapproving.C．Supportive. D．Neutral.26．The author uses three anesthesiologists as examples to ________.A．prove people benefit from workB．indicate doctors take pride in their workC．show people gain joy from different situationsD．imply doctors reduce the pressure of work successfully27．“Red threads” in Paragraph 4 refer to the activities that ________.A．arouse your passion B．satisfy your desiresC．improve your motivation D．require your efforts28．Which of the following does the author probably agree with?A．Red threads are necessary for a balanced life.B．Recording activities helps create positive feeling.C．Find love in work instead of keeping work-life balance.D．Maximize what you love to remove the heaviness from work. 典例2：（·北京顺义·一模）You can take fish oil supplements (补充剂). You can invest in a language class, books, or a few hours of exercise every week. There are countless methods to improve your memory. But the cheapest, easiest, and most time-tested way to make your brain think is—reading. There’s something astonishing about how such an ordinary activity can improve your brain in so many ways.The most basic impact occurs in the area associated with language reception in your brain. Processing written material—from the letters to the words to the sentences to the stories themselves—get the neurons (神经元) to attention as they start the work of transporting all that information. “Typically, when you read, you have more time to think.” says Maryanne Wolf, director of the UCLA Center for Diverse Learners. “Reading gives you a unique pause button for comprehension and insight. By and large, with oral language—when you watch a film or listen to a tape—you don’t press pause.”And the benefits of reading continue long after you’ve put down that great book. A small study at Emory University found that s ome of those benefits lasted for five days. “We call that a shadow activity, almost like a muscle memory,” says Gregory Berns, PhD, director of the Center for Neuron Policy at Emory.OK, you say, it’s hardly surprising that the language part of the brain w ould get a workout from reading. But reading also makes the region responsible for motor activity—the central sulcus (中央沟)—energetic. That’s because the brain is a play actor. You may not actually be riding a horse when you’re reading Seabiscuit, but your brain acts as if it is. And the more parts of your brain that get a workout, the better it is for your overall cognitive (认知的) performance. Generally speaking, close literary reading, like a Jane Austen novel, in particular gives your brain a major workout, as opposed to the more limited effects that come from more leisurely reading.What if you are a poor, or even a dyslexic reader who feels as if you’ll never be able to read enough to gain these benefits? The study shows the ability to read closely is something that needs to be developed. In her new book, Reader, Come Home, Wolf notes that even she, who reads for a living, has found her ability to concentrate on the written word weakening as more of what we read is on a screen. That sets up a negative cycl e: Without the continuing exercise of our reading “muscles”, the brain loses its ability to control the complex processes that allow us to read deeply.Of course, there’s an easy solution: Turn off your phone and your computer, set aside a good hour or two — and just read.29．Which is NOT TRUE about readings?A．Reading and speaking can equally make our brain sharp.B．The benefits of reading don’t disappear immediately.C．Reading classics can exercise our brain more than daily newspapers.D．We should avoid too much reading on our mobile phones.30．The book Seabiscuit in Paragraph 4 is probably about ________.A．how our brain works in reading B．the life story of Jane AustenC．how to exercise and keep fit D．the story of a champion racing horse31．What does the underlined word “dyslexic” in Paragraph 5 probably means?A．Active B．EnthusiasticC．Difficult D．Careful32．The passage is written to ________.A．show how to improve your reading comprehensionB．assess the results of keeping long—time readingC．analyze the function of different parts of our brainD．explain the benefits of reading on our brain典例3：（北京朝阳·一模）Fact or Fiction?Non-fiction can be broken down into many categories. One category is literary non-fiction, which is still based in fact but employs some of the storytelling elements that fiction uses. Literary non-fiction includes a type of autobiography(自传) called memoir. Memoir most often focuses on a certain period of the author’s life. It is, by definition, rooted in truth. Still, people sometimes question whether memoir should be categorized as non-fiction at all.As non-fiction, memoir is intended to be factual. Is this really the case, though, considering memoir relies on human memory? One classic study, led by psychologist Elizabeth Loftus, showed how easily an interviewer’s choice of wording can influence an eyewitness’s account of a traffic accident. It is therefore reasonable to wonder whether memoir should continue to be branded as non-fiction.Certainly, human memory can be unreliable. However, a memoir author is undoubtedly writing about significant and impactful life events. Memories of such events are actually more reliable than others. Studies show that the more influential an event is, the more accurately people recall the details. As an emotionally charged event unfolds, the brain activity changes in a way that amplifies small details. This activity helps build a more precise and accurate memory.Of course the brain is not a camera that can “save” any memory with perfect accuracy. But if memoir is questionable due to the imperfections of the human mind, then critics will have to tackle non-fiction more broadly. All writers are using their memories when they create, and moreover, they are relying on the memories of others. Journalists conduct interviews to tell a news story and history writers depend on the accuracy of accounts from long ago. Yet they all rightfully fall under the umbrella of non-fiction.Some people may doubt memoir not because they mistrust human memory, but because they mistrust the author’s morality. Critics may suspect an author of making up events. However, there is no reason to be suspicious of memoir author’s intentions. Writing a factual memoir that appeals to readers has the potential to be profitable for the author, and there is no motivation for a memoir writer to knowingly change or beautify the truth.Looking beyond the author’s own life events, memoir can inform readers about the world in the same way that other non-fiction can. Memoir has a way of relaying facts about anything from an occupation to brief fashion trends, all of it meaningful to the author.33．The author introduces the topic in Paragraph 1 by _____ .A．illustrating why it is important to talk about memoirB．listing some interesting facts and features of memoirC．defining key terms that are discussed later in the passageD．making a comparison between autobiography and memoir34．What does the underlined word “amplifies” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A．Collects.

That could never be reduced or changed in your whole life. Sounds great, doesn’t it? Actually, we all do get 1,440 a day—but in minutes, not dollars. 46 It’s possible to get more money, but you can’t make more time.Many of the management practices that help people make good use of their money can also be applied to your “time currency”. But the question is, are you a good manager of your time? 47Find out where your time is going now. Write down everything you do in a day. Include work, study, cooking and meals, cleaning and household maintenance, sleep, family time and mindless activities such as watching TV and getting lost in social media.48 Ten minutes of planning can save you an hour of time and helps stretch the time you have, and you’ll see pockets of time you can use for things you want to do. “Once people have a clear picture, they actually do have a lot more time than they realize.” Clark, the founder of the Purposeful Planner says.You can also set limits. Use kitchen timers, phone reminders, apps or other timing devices to stay focused and work more productively, suggests Janine Adams, certified professional organizer of Peace of Mind Organizing.49 When you have missions to run, instead of making three separate trips on three different days to buy groceries, office supplies or home store products, integrate them—visit all three stores in one trip. It’s more efficient to finish “little one-off” tasks together rather than deal with one at a time throu ghout the day.At the end of the day, week, month and year, take a look at how well you’ve managed your time. You’ll see where you could do better and where you’ve completed what you set out to do. Booren compares this progress check to reviewing your annu al “financial statement”. 50 Do that over and over and “it forms habit and becomes natural.” Booren says.A. Try these simple steps to take control of your clock and calendar.B. Time is one of the most precious and limited resources for people.C. Grouping small tasks into one job proves to be helpful in daily practice.D. The most important tasks are not always the same as the most pressing tasks.E. Focus on what you’re doing and avoid having to repeat the same process twice.F. Invest a few minutes at the beginning of each day or week to plan and organize.G. Take time each day to reflect on your achievements and set goals for tomorrow.25．B 26．C 27．A 28．C【分析】这是一篇议论文。

阅读七选五保分练(三)Test 1[2023·新课标Ⅱ卷]As an artist who shares her journey on social media, I'm often asked by curious followers how to begin an art journey. Unfortunately, there is no magic list I can offer. I do remember, though, what it was like to be a complete beginner. So I've put together some good tips for starting an art journey.·Start small. I suggest using a sketchbook (素描本) for small studies. These small studies provide inspiration and may be a springboard for more complex works in the future. __1__ You'll want to look back on your journey to see how far you've come.·Paint often and paint from life. There's no better way to improve than to put in those brush miles. Whether you paint still lives, portraits, or landscapes, paint from life as much as possible. __2__·Continually chall enge yourself to try something new. __3__ Artistic growth can be a bit painful. Welcome to the club；we've all been there. I love taking on challenges. I once took up a challenge to create a painting every day for a month and post the works online.·__4__Seeking and accepting constructive feedback (反馈) is crucial to growth.I post my work on social media and, in turn, have met some of the kindest people. They make me feel valued and respected, no matter my level of artistic ability.The journey you're on won't follow a straight path. __5__ Push through, give it time and put in the effort. You will harvest the rewards of an artistic life.A.Get out of your comfort zone.B．Make career plans and set goals.C．Don't throw away your beginner art.D．Share your work if you feel comfortable doing so.E.You'll hit roadblocks, and you'll feel discouraged at times.F.Evaluate your performance and, if needed, redefine your role.G.You'll develop that painting muscle memory that only comes with repetition.[答题区]1．________ 2.________ 3.________ 4.________ 5.________Test 2[2023·武汉市高三模拟]Lake Baikal, the biggest body of fresh water on Earth near Russia's border with Mongolia, is home to several unusual animals, including the world's only species of freshwater seal (海豹).Seals exist in large quantities in Baikal, about 100，000 of them, though the lake is poor in nutrition. __1__. A study just published by Watanabe Yuuki of the National Institute of Polar Research in Tokyo suggests the answer is tiny organisms.Most seals eat fish. And Baikal seals do, indeed, have needlepointed teeth. But in 1982 researchers noted that they developed a second sort of specialized tooth behind those canines (犬齿). They have sharp teeth which look like combs (梳子). __2__. But Dr Watanabe guessed that they might be an adaptation for feeding on otherstrange creatures in the lake.Seals arrived in Baikal 2 million years ago, from the Arctic Ocean. So too did some much smaller sea creatures, known as amphipods. These have grown into more than 340 species.__3__. But Dr Watanabe wondered if the Baikal seals' comblike teeth might enable them to filter (过滤) these tiny creatures from the water in sufficient quantities to make them useful food sources. __4__.Records showed that the seals would dive in with their mouths open and collect amphipod groups that form at night. Dr Watanabe estimated that each seal catches an average of 57 amphipods per dive. __5__， for the seals do hunt fish as well. But they also compete with those fish for the amphipods, thus partially bypassing a link in the food chain and perhaps maintaining themselves in larger numbers than what would otherwise be possible.A．The needlelike canines are necessaryB．So how they do so well has been a puzzleC．This has led to their numbers increasing sharplyD．At the time, nobody knew what to make of themE．He therefore used waterproof cameras to observe a few sealsF．Cameras remained attached to some seals for between two and four daysG．Sea mammals of the size of seals would normally see amphipods as too small to hunt[答题区]1．________ 2.________ 3.________ 4.________ 5.________Test 3[2023·济南市高三模拟]“A ship in the harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are built for，” said John Augustus Shedd, an earl y 20th century author. Throughout COVID19, we've all become used to assessing risk in new ways. We've come to understand, though we can never get rid of risk altogether，we have great power to make choices both large and small to protect ourselves. __1__ It stops us from stepping outside of our comfort zones and trying new things.Developmental psychologists talk about “positive risks”—socially acceptable risks that our lives can benefit from. __2__ But what about those who develop into adults? Researchers have found that happiness for older adults is being able to choose how they spend their time, including ways that are adventurous, new and even mildly risky，like hiking or other outdoor activities.One guide to positive risk management lists ways that people can make sure their risks are on the “safe” side of the risk range. For example, to ensure a successful bike ride, you should in advance equip yourself with a fullycharged cell phone and a full water bottle. __3__ Or if you are concerned about your physical capacity, consult a certified trainer or a medical professional before departure.__4__ This means adapting to changing situations. In response to the deadly virus，people choose to step back into normal life only after they are vaccinated. In this way, people could be confident that the risk is tolerable.Nobody wants to be needlessly risky. But using our newlyacquiredriskassessment tools, we can once again learn and grow in our lives. __5__ A．Take risks in a positive way.B．But the selfprotective mind state carries its own risk.C．Overall happiness is one benefit of positive risktaking.D．Remember to tell one of your friends or families your destination.E．Besides taking preventive steps, flexible thinking is also encouraged.F．Like a ship sailing away from its harbor, that is what we were built to do.G．For teenagers, this means risks like running for a monitor or trying out for a team.[答题区]1．________ 2.________ 3.________ 4.________ 5.________Test 4[2023·武汉市高三调研]Now I live in Paris. Actually, I don't mind the food or the people, but I do care about the land that extraordinarily lacks characteristics of hiking. I enjoy being outdoors and hiking，but Paris's natural resources don't hold much potential for my bent. So when my dad asked if I wanted to go hiking with him, I was overjoyed. __1__. It turned out that I was too optimistic.We started our main hike up Flattop Mountain. As we hiked it was much more challenging than I had expected. __2__. The path is winding and we saw mountains towering over the green valleys and cliffs that seemed endless. What amazed me most was that thick clouds enveloped the mountainsides. __3__.I stared up at the top to see how much farther we had to go and I began to worry that I wouldn't finish it. __4__. It made me doubtful about my persistence (坚持). But when we looked back at the path that faded in the distance, I was filled with fulfillment with seeing how much we had done.As I was hiking, I started to reflect on how hiking was similar to other aspects of my life. __5__. It reminded me of my struggles in my classes and the difficulties I had to overcome. I spotted that the process of learning isn't always the most fun, but the fulfillment after seeing how much I had finished just increases the thirst for knowledge, causing me to long for more learning. Looking down at the mountain I was content but never fully satisfied. Having considered a lot, I was determined to pursue the summit (山顶).A．Hiking could make me flyB．Hiking gave time for my mind to wanderC．I thought I would finish the journey with easeD．But I was shocked at the beauty surrounding meE．I was satisfied with the landscape along the wayF．It was unlike anything I had ever witnessed beforeG．A recent ankle injury had left me unsure of my physical capabilities[答题区]1．________ 2.________ 3.________ 4.________ 5.________阅读七选五保分练（三）Test 1语篇类型：说明文主题语境：人与社会——生活方式——介绍艺术之旅的好建议【文章大意】文章介绍了一些开始艺术之旅的好建议。

Immediately, he used some herbal medicine to deal with it. Later, the organizing committee's ambulance rushed him to the local hospital.What should you do if you encounter a snake while you are outside? Remember: first of all, do not excite it. Data show that people who excite snakes are easily bitten. __3__ Second, avoid the places where snakes like to stay. Snakes like to sunbathe during the day, and usually stay on gravel and cliff edges. Third, if you happen to see a snake crossing through the road, you must stop and wait for it to pass.__4__ First, sit down and try to avoid the acceleration (加速) of blood circulation. Then tie the limb 10－30 cm above the wound with a strong rope, and make a cut about 1 cm above the wound. The cut should be 1－2 cm wide, and then you squeeze blood from top to bottom. Generally, snake bites occur at the ankle. __5__ Furthermore, be sure to call the ambulance ASAP.A．He sensed that his situation was not good.B．Then what to do if you're bitten by a snake?C．So staying still can prevent you from meeting a snake.D．He thought his high-end shoes could protect against the snake.E．However, those who run immediately are less likely to be bitten.F．In this case bending the knee to reduce the flow of blood can be helpful.G．Despite the language barrier, he understood what had happened.Test 2[2020·武汉市部分学校高三在线学习摸底检测]Nothing stays the same for long: things and people change.I grew up on a small farm, where a flock of sheep wandered around the surrounding mountains. My father was not highly educated, but he was smart. He was a man made of leather and chewing tobacco who rarely tried to talk with my brother or me. He was quiet and distant, I might say. __1__ One day I came home and his car was already there. __2__ In fact, when he came home, he went to the barn (谷仓) to labour even more. I still remember hiding around the corner and stealing a look at my father lying bitterly on the bed that day. Multiple myeloma, I learned, is a type of blood cancer. __3__ For the last year of my father's life, his entire day consisted of rising from his bed and walking to his chair to sit and think alone.He was predictably in that chair on his own when I came in. __4__ He told me about his life, his heartbreaks and his loves. It was as if a pipe had burst, his inner self rushing out to me in a great flood. He had been speaking for maybe an hour or more when I realized that he was doing more than telling. He was asking to be understood in a way that he had never done before.__5__ I realize, though, that if he hadn't, I might never have come to know him and love him.A．My father never missed work.B．I did not like him very much.C．He was skillful at any farm work.D．He became better after some special treatment.E．I'm certainly not glad that my father got sick.F．As the disease develops, the person who has it shrinks.G．What followed still moves me these decades later.Test 3[2020·太原市高三年级模拟试题(一)]Can't Resist Junk Food? A Study SuggestsYou Try This Simple TrickYou're tired and hungry. Then you catch a whiff of something delicious, probably fried and almost certainly fattening. It is fried chicken! __1__ New research says that exposing to the smell of junk food for at least two minutes can actually help you make healthier food choices.Let's take a closer look at his process. Have you ever noticed that whatever appetizing treat catching your nose's attention tends to be most appealing just after you first smell it? What will happen if you're standing in line after a couple of minutes? __2__ And recent science says that this is actually the right moment to walk away.The results of a series of experiments, including field studies at a supermarket and at a middle school cafeteria, show that extended exposure (of more than two minutes) to junk food smell (e.g., cookie smell) leads to lower purchases of unhealthy foods compared with healthy smell (e.g., strawberry smell). __3__ That is why long exposure to junk food smell can be as satisfactory as actually having it in your mouth, which in turn decreases the desire for consumption of junk food.__4__ When the exposure to smell of healthy food was examined, food choices were not profoundly influenced. The reason for this is that healthy food is not connected with reward in our brain and therefore has little influence on what we desire.So next time you're feeling you don't have the willpower to resist that Frech fries, it might be as simple as sitting there and smelling all that sweetness for just two minutes. __5__A．But wait a minute before you order.B．It's a response that has been researched.C．Get the satisfaction with none of the calories.D．It isn't quite as irresistible as it was just moments ago.E．However, it's not the same case with smell of healthy food.F．It's the same as actually eating it because your desire to eat it is satisfied.G．The brain doesn't necessarily distinguish between a pleasurable smell and taste.Test 4[2020·石家庄市高三年级阶段性训练题]While marathon study sessions may be unavoidable sometimes, do your best to manage your time effectively.Reduce your workload by studying more efficiently. Before you start studying always read your task sheet to make sure you're focusing on the right topics. __1__ This saves you looking it up. Finally, pick out the most important information, so you can study it first.__2__ Make sure you have everything you need, so you won't need to get up every few minutes to get something. Neatly place your textbooks, pens, notebooks and other study materials in your study space. This way you can easily get what you need without taking an unplanned break.Plan out your study sessions in advance. Think about the time you'll need for each task, add 10% extra time for insurance, and then schedule blocks for your tasks. __3__ Remember to include short breaks every hour or so.Break up difficult tasks into smaller steps. Tasks such as “Study for the History Final”or “Write the Term Paper” can seem unapproachable. Instead of getting confused and upset, divide big tasks into small ones. If you're studying for a final of a course, start by looking over past tests and quizzes. __4__ Smaller study tasks may also include creating outlines that summarize textbook chapters.Do your best to space out your study sessions instead of cramming (突击准备). Whenever possible, give yourself time to study a little bit at a time. It's better to study for three separate three-hour sessions instead of one marathon nine-hour session. __5__A．Choose a quiet spot for studying.B．Prepare your area before you start studying.C．Schedule your toughest and most important tasks first.D．Study difficult subjects first to get them out of the way.E．Then divide the course into its units, and study one unit at a time.F．Additionally, ask your instructor to explain any topic that confuses you.G．Multiple shorter sessions will help you remember more information in the long run.阅读七选五技能保分练(三)Test 1语篇类型：说明文主题语境：人与自我——完善自我——如何建立终身学习的思维模式[文章大意]文章介绍了建立终身学习的思维模式的方法：挑战传统思维、把错误变成机会、从失误中学习、运用成长型思维模式、设定目标避免压力。

Don't compromise on your happiness just because someone is trying to pick a fight. Just let it go (不要理会) and be happier.5Just before you go to bed, write down at least one wonderful thing that happened.

Professor Deborah Tannen, of Georgetown University, has noticed differences in the style of boys' and girls' conversations from an early age. According to her study, little girls' conversation is less clear than boys' and expresses more doubts. 2These differences will continue into adult life, she says. In public conversations, men talk most and interrupt other speakers more than women do. In private conversations, men and women speak in almost equal amounts. 3 Professor Tannen believes that, for women, private talking is a way to establish and test intimacy (亲密). For men, private talking is a way to explore the power structure (结构) of a relationship.4 “When a woman teaches another woman,” says Professor Tannen, “she is more likely to take a sharing approach and to encourage her student to join in. When a man teaches a woman, however, he wants to show that he has more knowledge and power in conversation.5 ”Some scientists who are studying speech think that the brain is preprogrammed for language. As we are usually taught to speak by women, it seems likely that the brain must have a sexual bias (偏向) in its programming; otherwise, male speech patterns would not arise at all.A. And he uses his language to show this.B. Do men talk in the same way as women?C. However, they say things in a different style.D. Women are far more silent than men in public conversations.E. Little boys use conversation to establish status with their listeners.F. More women are encouraged to help each other, talking about their doubts.G. Teaching is one job where the differences between men's and women's ways of talking show.CThe exciting game of footballFootball is one of the most popular sports in the US. 1 That kind involves kicking a round ball into a net and is called soccer in North America. American football, however, uses a ball that is pointy (尖的) on both ends. While it does include some kicking, there is more throwing and catching involved.In football, there are 11 players from each team on the field at one time. Each team tries to move the ball across the opposing team's goal line to score. The quarterback (四分卫) throws the ball, and the person who catches it tries to run past the opposing team's players. The way to stop someone running with the ball is to tackle him. That means hitting right against him and trying to knock him down to the ground. 2The biggest professional football organization in the US is the National Football League (NFL). The NFL championship game is called the Super Bowl, and it is one of the most watched television events around the globe. 3 For example, millions of toilets are flushed (冲洗) at the same time during half-time. Also, 14,500 tons of chips are consumed during the game.Most sports fans are happy with just sitting in the stands and cheering on their teams. 4 They dress themselves in their team's colors. Some of the excitement happens before the games even begin. Fans gather and hang out in the parking lots outside the stadiums and have huge parties. 5 There are also endless amounts of sodas and beers. All of these combined with the game itself make football one huge and popular social event.A. However, it isn't the game of football played in other parts of the world.B. As a result, professional players have to be strong and quick.C. It is an exciting sport that can sometimes get pretty rough.D. There are many amazing facts about the Super Bowl.E. It is also the wealthiest sports league in the world.F. Everything from sandwiches to chips is served.G. For some, that is not enough.DThere are a number of tips that you can follow to help you find a job that suits your personality.List your strong and weak pointsBefore you start your job search, take some time to think about your strong and weak points. 1 If you are excellent at managing your time, for example, a job in project management, or one that involves organising others, could be perfect.Ask others for their opinionsAlthough you should know yourself better than anyone else, there are times when a second opinion is needed. 2 They may come up with ideas that you haven't considered.You should, however, make sure that they aren't so protective of you that they persuade you not to push yourself, or encourage you so much that you aim too high.Find out what potential jobs involve3 Make sure you do as much research as possible to determine exactly what you will have to do. An office job may sound very safe if you are shy, but if you then find that you have to give regular presentations, you may not be cut out for it after all.4When looking for a job, many people have an idea of what they would like to be in the future. However, that is often little more than a dream and, even if it is possible to reach that goal, it may involve years of hard work that you don't enjoy. 5 If you can find a job that mirrors what makes you happy in life, then the chances are that you will enjoy it and it will match your personality type.A. Take a personality testB. Consider what delights youC. Think about what makes you happy and then analyse why.D. Finding a job that suits your personality is very important.E. Ask your friends and family what sort of job they think would suit you best.F. Sometimes, it isn't immediately obvious what a job will involve until you start it.G. More importantly, think about how they would affect your ability to do particular jobs.答案A 1-5 FDCEAB 1-5 BECGAC 1-5 ABDGFD 1-5 GEFBC解析A篇（日常活动）本文是说明文。

So she depended on her old favorite trick of talking with her host. , King Tupou IV, carrying on a warm conversation. At the same time she pushed her food around her plate and only ate a piece of turkey and some fruit.Reporters traveling with her have noted that the Queen will sometimes seem so carried away by a foreign leader’s political chat that she simply never has time to finish a meal before it is time to get up and make her speech.

题型针对练(三)——段中句类Test1(2021·山东泰安二模)When I was seven, my parents explained to me that my sister would be different. 1 But now I realise I see the world in a much different way, all thanks to her.Throughout our lives, my sister has often got stared at because she has Down’s syndrome(唐氏综合征), which makes her appear abnormal. There were times when I had to struggle with her. 2 I simply thought, “Everyone else is just staring and that is wrong. They should offer us help instead of staring at us like it’s a circus act(马戏表演).”I had this in mind when I was travelling alone recently and saw a mother and her son with special needs at the airport gate. 3 They were heading towards the gate of their second departure of the day. The mother was obviously stressed out and trying to keep her son calm while some items were falling out of her unzipped(拉开拉链的) backpack. The son was pulling strangers’ clothes, and she appeared to be embarrassed about it. Then the boy began to scream, looking very scared and confused.Some people gave the son and mother strange look, the same kind of look my sister and I would sometimes get. 4 I tried to help calm the boy down by assuring him he was going to see his grandmother as his mum kept telling him. When the boy finally calmed down, I returned to my seat. At the time, an older gentleman turned around and said to me,“I thought about doing what you did, but I just thought about it. You did it.”To be honest, I didn’t even really regard what I did as something different or good. 5A.They had got off another plane.B.People would stare at us even more.C.I don’t know what I should do to help.D.But I stood up and asked if I could lend a hand.E.I just consider it as the only choice in that situation.F.I was so angry that I shouted loudly at the strangers.G.I had no idea what impact she would have on my daily life.Test2(2021·广东佛山4月质量检测)Why Do Movie Theatres Serve Popcorn?The delicious smell. The crunchy(爽脆的) bite. The buttery finish. People will recognise the smell and flavour of their favourite moviegoing snacks anywhere. Why is it that we feast our taste buds on these crisp kernels while our eyes focus on the big screen?1 The main reason is the snack’s price, convenience, and timing. Popcorn was cheap for sellers and for customers, and making it didn’t require special equipment.2 That is how popcorn got introduced to the silver screen.Popcorn does not refer to the popped kernel alone. 3 It was originally grown in Central America and became popular in the US in the mid-1800s. Compared with other snacks at the time, it was super easy to make, and it got easier when the mobile steam power popcorn-maker was invented. In the late 19th century a large number of independent popcorn suppliers became widely available. 4 Since popcorn was cheap to make, it was also cheap to buy, which increased the popularity of this snack during the Great Depression. The Depression increased consumer spending on cheaper luxury items such as popcorn and movies, and the two industries teamed up. 5 By the mid-1940s, however, movie theatres began to have their own concession stands in the lobby. The introduction of the popcorn-driven concession stand to movie theatres kept the movie theatre industry running smoothly, and popcorn has been a basic movie-watching food ever since.A.A few aspects made popcorn the typical movie snack.B.They were like the great-great-grandfathers of food trucks.C.Therefore, movie theatres attracted more and more customers.D.The secret of popcorn’s pleasant taste lies in the special material.E.It’s also the name for the specific type of corn that is used to make the snack.F.Theatres would allow a popcorn salesman to sell popcorn outside for a daily fee.G.Popcorn also got popular at a time when theatres badly needed an economic increase.Test3(2021·湖北武汉高三4月质检)How to Choose the Right University Degree for YouChoosing the right university degree is perhaps one of the biggest decisions that you might make in your life. If you are in the process of applying to a university and aren’t sure which degree to choose, here are some things you can do to help you make the right choice.1Many teens who are in the process of applying to a university end up being pressured by parents or other family members to apply to study subjects that they are good at but don’t really enjoy. 2 Remember, it’s always easier to improve your knowledge and skills around a certain subject if you are truly passionate about it.Get some work experience.There’s nothing like actually experiencing something to help you determine what you might want to do. 3 But you may be able to spend a day in the office or workplace shadowing people who work in those careers and asking them questions.Think about your future goals.When you think about your future goals, don’t just think about the work that you want to do—consider the other goals that you have for your life as well. 4 If so, a career as an English teacher or a translator might be the perfect option for you. Perhaps you want a job where you can help others everyday, and then medicine, nursing or counselling could be an ideal choice. 5 Then degrees in film, art, and architecture are great choices.A.Think about what you like.B.Do you want to travel a lot?C.You don’t have to be employed.D.Think about what you’re good at.E.Maybe you want to have many fans.F.Try not to let others push this on you.G.Maybe you’re a very creative person.Test4(2021·湖南长郡十五校高三联考第二次考试)Being a teenager can be difficult, since you’re dealing with higher expectations and the process of finding your place in the world. 1 The following are things you can do to achieve that!2 Everyone is different in their teenage years. Some teens prefer to spend time with friends, while others prefer to study and work; some prefer to be quiet wallflowers(待在一旁的人), while others are loud. Saying that there’s only one way to enjoy your teenage years is wrong.Develop your sense of self, focusing more on your own thoughts. 3 Stop paying so much attention to them as many of them are based on what other people think, instead of what you think. Go ahead and do what you want, without factoring others’ opinions in.Work on your work ethic(职业道德). What you accomplish in your teenage years may determine your opportunities in your adulthood, so dedicate some time to studying and do your best. Learn how to prioritise, whether it’s with schoolwork, or any extra-curricular activities. Boost your studying skills.4Keep good relations with your family as much as possible. 5 It’s the building blocks for all relationships you develop, whether they’re friendships, romantic relationships, or a family you choose to have later on in life. And plus, you see them every day—why not make it nice to spend time with them?A.Avoid rushing to figure out who you are.B.For lots of people, the teenage years are full of worries.C.But that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy the teenage years.D.Family is one of the most important connections in your life.E.They may not seem enjoyable, but they’re helpful later on in life.F.Understand that there’s no invariable way to enjoy your teenager years.G.Being a teenager is not necessarily any easier or more difficult than other life stages.题型针对练(三)——段中句类Test1【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。

AWhen I first met Bud, I knew we were going to be friends, even though he was white and I was black. We first met at the All-City Chorus. 1 We stood side by side in the chorus, and he always made me look good, even if I missed a note.Bud went to an all-white high school in a beautiful, all-white neighborhood. There were very few big buildings in his community. As a matter of fact, you would have to walk four or five blocks to get to the nearest shoppingcenter. 2 In his basement, he had a complete mini-gym. In his bedroom, he had a nice desk, complete with reference books and his own little TV on which he could play his video games.3 My family lived in a nice apartment in an all-black housing project. Our project housed many families, so we were used to living in small crowded houses.4 There were all kinds of stores nearby. For beauty, we had basketball courts and the rose garden in front of the project building.We were never jealous or looked down on one another, either. We both felt we had lost something because we lived in worlds set apart from others. Bud's only contact (接触) with blacks of his age was in the All-City Chorus. 5 And it was not as interesting as it would have been if he had grown up with people of different groups and races living together. I felt the same way. Both races could learn a great deal from one another, and I knew this because Bud and I surely did learn from each other.A. Bud's house was another point of interest.B. Because of this, he felt his life was sheltered.C. We never had to walk far to the nearest store.D. My home and neighborhood were totally different.F. You should build your greenhouse based on the amount of space you have available.G. Whatever reasons you have, knowing the basic steps of building a greenhouse counts.CHow to set goalsWhether you have small dreams or great expectations, setting goals allows you to plan how you want to move through life. Some achievements can take a lifetime to attain. 1 No matter what goals you are setting, getting started can be difficult, but we'll show you how to build up to even the biggest dream.•Determine your life goals. 2 What do you want to achieve: today, in a year, in your lifetime? The answers to this question can be as general as “I want to be happy,” or “I want to help people.” A career life goal might be to open your own business. A fitness goal might be to become fit. These goals can be amazingly broad.•Set priorities (优先的事物). At any given moment, you probably have a number of goals all in different states of completion. 3 If you find yourself with too many goals, you're going to feel lost and are less likely to accomplish them.•Keep track of your progress. Writing in a journal is a great way to keep track of both personal and professional progress. Acknowledging the progress made towards a certain goal is key to staying motivated. 4 Asking a friend to keep you on track can also help you stay focused.• 5 Once you have achieved goals — even major life goals — you will want to continue to grow and set new goals for yourself. Once you run your marathon, you should assess what you'd like to do next. Do you want to run another marathon, but improve your time? Or do you want to run longer distances?A. Keep setting goals.B. So be realistic about your goals.C. It may even encourage you to work harder.D. Others, however, can be completed in the course of a day.E. Break the big picture down into smaller and more specific goals.F. So deciding which goals are more important than others is important.G. Ask yourself some important questions about what you want for your life.DHow to overcome shynessDoes the thought of talking in front of people make youembarrassed? 1 Many people in the world suffer from mild to extreme shyness and are struggling to overcome it. Remember that breaking out from that shell doesn't magically happen overnight. It takes time, effort, and of course, the desire to change. You're on the right track by just reading this article — nowlet's keep going.Figure out your triggers (诱因). Do you become shy in front of new audiences? Or when surrounded by people you know and admire? Try to find out the thoughts that go through your head right before the shynesshits. 2 You're okay being around your family, right? Are they different from the strangers around you? Of course not — you just know them better and what's more, they know you.Place your attention on others. For 99% of us, we become shy when we think if we speak up or stand out, we'll embarrass ourselves. 3 When we stop focusing on ourselves, we stop worrying about our performance.4 You have gotten used to hearing your own voice! Record yourself pretending to have conversations. Sounds ridiculous, sure, but you'll notice patterns, when and why you drop off, etc. At the beginning you'll feel like an actor, but it will become an old habit. Practice makes habits, you know!Don't compare yourself to others. The more you compare yourself to others, the more you will feel that you are not able to measure up. There is no use comparing yourself to anybody else. 5 Everyone else has his own confidence problems, too!A. If so, you are far from alone.B. Even if you do, do it realistically.C. Practice speaking clearly to yourself.D. Chances are not all situations make you shy.E. That's why it's important to focus on others.F. Practice placing yourself in not-so-comfortable situations.G. After all, you may never see them again, so who cares what they think about you?答案A. 1-5 FADCBB. 1-5 GEDFBC. 1-5 DGFCAD. 1-5 ADECB解析A篇（家庭、朋友与周围的人）本文是记叙文。

Ideas about social class –whether a person is “working - class”or “middle - class”–are one area in which changes have been extremely slow.In the past, the working-class tended to be paid less than middle-class people. The typical working man would collect his wages on Friday evening and then, it was widely believed, having given his wife her "housekeeping", would go out and squander the rest on beer and betting. The old style of what a middle-class man did with his money was perhaps nearer the truth. He was-and still is - inclined to take a longer-term view. Not only did he regard buying a house as a most important thing, but he also considered the education of his children as extremely important. 【小题2】. Only in very few cases did workers have the opportunity （or the education and training）to make such long-term plans.【小题3】 . In a large number of cases factory workers earn as much as their middle –class supervisors (管理者). Social security and laws to improve century, have made it less necessary than before to worry about "tomorrow". Working-class people seem slowly to be losing the feeling of inferiority(自卑感). In fact there has been a growing tendency in the past few years for the middle-classes to feel slightly ashamed of their position. 【小题4】 .They generally tend to share very similar tastes in music andclothes, they spend their money in having a good time, and save for holidays or longer-term plans when necessary.

2023届高考英语备考一轮复习七选五专题训练题组 (3)
全国百所名校2023年高考英语备考一轮复习资料七选五专练题组汇编（三）姓名：班级：得分：AIt is a common sight to see a teacher standing in front of the white board, giving explanations. Occasionally, some topics do require such a teacher-centered lesson. ___1____ They can neither remember nor recall the teachings of the day. How can this boredom be beaten?Cooperative learning is one effective classroom practice to make the lessons attractive and learners active. Interaction is key to any form of learning. Cooperative learning allows students to interact constructively in small groups to complete a structured task. ____2____ Cooperative learning is a learning style that promotes the four core skills: cooperation through team effort, communication through face-to-face interactions, critical thinking and creativity through reasoning and problem solving. Teachers are no longer the only source of information. The success of an assignment is dependent on combined efforts. __3____ Each member assigned a specific role or task must contribute to the completion of the team assignment to ensure equal distribution of labour.However, cooperative learning is not always smooth sailing. One main struggle would be personality conflicts. If passive and shy students are paired with perfectionists, the latter may end up dominating to the point of ruling out their chicken teammates. ___4___ The tendency to communicate just amongst themselves will lead to the shy students being left out, putting them at a disadvantage again.___5___ It shapes students to become active learners. Indeed, a constant cooperative learning environment equips young minds to become successful grown-ups in an increasingly diverse and interdependent world.A．Individual responsibility is equally important too.B．With teachers’ help, students can understand them better.C．However, if it is a daily routine, pupils will soon get bored.D．Students in groups of three or four work together to do a task.E．Another obstacle occurs when certain members are well familiar.F．In this way, lively participation and a better mastery of the subject are achieved. G．Although cooperative learning has some problems, its long term benefits outweigh problems.BLanguage is part of our daily lives, no matter where we live in the world. Similarly, music is a part of many people’s lives. ___1___ Here are some of their similarities.Both language and music have a writing systemIn English we record language using the alphabet, which is a collection of letters. Similarly, we use notes to keep a record of music. Just as you are reading this collection of letters on thepaper and find meaning in it, musicians read notes and create meaning in the form of music which we can hear. ___2___ For example, we can read the ideas or hear the composition of someone who lived hundreds of years ago, which is really quite exciting.Both vary with culture___3___ In the same way, we know that styles of music are different around the world, which gives us the opportunity to explore many different cultures through their music. This also means that there is something for everyone! Even if you don’t like Britpop melodies, you may love the energy of Latin American salsa music.Both share emotionHow do you know that I am angry? ___4___ Similarly, music can sound angry, sad or happy. Music can show you exactly how the composer was or is feeling, and allows us to share that emotion. When you feel happy, you might want to sing and dance to a happy song. ___5___ A．Different culture makes different music.B．Both language and music play a huge role in our lives.C．You can guess where someone is from by listening to their language.D．By reading pieces of text or music, we are able to share experiences through time.E．In contrast, you have probably also listened to sad music when you were feeling down.F．Of course, you may be able to see it in my face, but you will know for sure through my words. G．We have all used music to express our emotions, often combining it with language in the form of song lyrics.CLaughter has positive, quantifiable physiological and psychological effects on certain aspects of health. ____1____It provides low-intensity exercise and burn calories.___2___ It is particularly important for seniors as well as bedridden or wheelchair-bound people. It is a unique way to improve one’s daily health.____3____ The relaxation of the muscles in line with the increased heart rate allows the blood to flow more freely throughout your body. At the same time if your blood pressure is low it can be increased over time due to the aerobic(有氧的)exercise that it provides.It reduces pain. Endorphins(内啡肽)are your body’s natural painkillers. They are released into your body and then distributed throughout your nervous system when you laugh.___4__ It sharpens up the immune system. When you laugh, your heart serves as the central pump that puts blood through your blood vessels. This assists the lymphatic vessels(淋巴管)in carrying blood through your body and helps your lymph nodes to clean, removing waste products, dead cells, and even unwanted microorganisms.___5___ These are necessary for you to be at your best. Increased lymphatic flow equals a heightened, improved immune system.A．It regulates blood pressure.B．It provides more oxygen for the heart.C．Maintaining blood clean is important.D．Laughter has a positive influence on your heart.E．Here are some benefits of laughter on physical health.F．Regular laughter is often used to assist with pain management.G．When you laugh, all your body systems are affected positively.DWhat’s the use of language? Why does the human race learn to speak, write, and sign?___1__ Certainly the primary purpose of language is for communication. We use language to communicate our ideas and opinions to each other. We use it to tell others our thoughts. Sometimes we tell the truth. Sometimes we tell lies. But in all these cases, the basic aim is clear: to get the ideas in our head into someone else’s head. __2___ But there are several other uses of language where the basic aim has nothing to do with communicating ideas.____3____ Earlier in the book, I talked about accents and dialects. These tell people who we are and where we come from. In both ways we express our identities.Here’s another use of language: to express our emotions. Imagine you’re hammering a nail into a piece of wood, but something goes wrong and you hit your finger instead. What will come out of your mouth? ____4____ But quite a few would shout, “Stupid hammer!” as if it was the hammer’s fault. What sort of language is this? The hammer doesn’t have a brain, so it can’t possibly understand us. So what are we doing? Actually, we just want to get rid of our nervous energy. By shouting at the hammer, we feel a bit better.We also use language to avoid embarrassment and get on with other people. Imagine people sometimes say such things as “Looks like rain” or “Lovely day” when they meet each other. They don’t want to start a proper conversation, but they feel it would be rude to pass by in silence.____5____A．Therefore, they make a comment on the weather.B．One of these uses of language is to express identity.C．Of course, if you’re very brave you might not say anything.D．It shows that we’re getting on well with the people we’re talking to.E．And for that to happen, we must speak them, write them, or sign them.F．We might think the answer is very simple: to communicate with each other.G．Rather a large number of people, I suspect, would shout out something bad.EHow to Save Water During a Drought?The drought is happening because of climate change. California just had its driest year in a century. Gov. Gavin Newsom has declared a statewide drought emergency, asking all Californiansto save water in every way possible. ___1___ , though you can’t save California on your own Small things can add up. You’ve probably heard these tips before, but consider this a refresher course: Don’t let the water running while you wash dishes in the sink or washing, brushing or shaving. ___2__ . Water outdoor plants in the morning or evening, so you don’t lose as much water to evaporation in the midday sun.Replace old appliances. How old is your toilet? If it’s from before 1990, it could be using up to 6 gallons per flush. Newer toilets may use as little as 1.28 gallons or less. ___3__ . Upgrading your dishwasher and washing machine and any other water-intensive appliance will also pay savings dividends(红利), in both water and energy costs.__4_ . Keep an eye on your water bill. If it creeps higher than normal without a good reason, investigate whether you have a leak somewhere. Depending on the type of water meter(仪表)you have, you may be able to monitor the meter with all your water turned off and see whether anything is still moving through your system, __5__ .Consider your overall lifestyle of water usage and do everything within your power to use less water. Individual action can make a big change.A．Focus on the water billB．Individual action mattersC．Find out the potential problemD．They can save a lot per household per dayE．It’s political action that brings a significant changeF．You may also use a smart detector to tell you once there’s a problemG．Only run washing machines and dishwashers when you have a full load全国百所名校2023年高考英语备考一轮复习资料七选五专练题组汇编答案（三）CFAEG【导语】本文是一篇说明文。
