Ponso has been by himself for nearly three years, finding himself alone after his wife and children died on the island where they were abandoned by a medical testing company many years ago.For years a nearby villager named Germain has been Ponso's only company, visiting him so often to bring bananas and bread — the chimp's only source of food on the tiny island. It was clear how much Ponso missed companionship when he was recently visited by Chimpanzee Conservation Centre Director Estelle Raballand. The chimp immediately embraced Estelle Raballand in a huge hug and laughed as she reached out for him, with his smile from ear to ear.For those who know Ponso's backstory, his immediate ease and trust in humans might be surprising. Ponso was one of 20 chimps, all between the ages of 7 to 11years old, relocated to an island off the Ivory Coast after being used for testing. After the tests were completed in 2005, the lab reportedly transferred the chimps to a string of islands, occasionally dropping off food and water because there was none in the chimps' new homes.Disease and hunger soon left only Ponso, his mate and their two children standing. But at the end of 2013 they died within days and Ponso is now completely alone.A group called SOS PONSO is trying to raise money for the poor lonely chimp, already achieving its goal of 20,000 —all of which will be used for Ponso's care.4.What do we know about the chimp Ponso?A.He was deserted by his family.B.He found many sources of food.C.He came to the island for a test.D.He suffers from loneliness greatly.5.How did Ponso feel about the visit of Estelle Raballand?A.Excited.

D.Confused.6.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A.The chimps' new settlements.B.How Ponso came to the island.C.Why Ponso was used for a test.D.The medical test about chimps.7.What can be inferred from the text?A.Germain won't visit Ponso anymore.B.A new lab will be built on the island.C.Many people show concern for Ponso.D.More chimps will be brought to the island.C(2016·广州普通高中毕业班综合测试一)It was December 25, 1914, only 5 months into World War Ⅰ. German, British, and French soldiers, already sick and tired of the senseless killing, disobeyed their superiors and started socialising with “the enemy” along two­thirds of the Western Front.German troops held up Christmas trees with signs “Merry Christmas”. Thousands of troops ran across the battlefields covered with dead bodies. They sang Christmas songs, exchanged photographs of loved ones back home, shared foodand even played football. Soldiers hugged men they had been trying to kill a few short hours before. They agreed to warn each other if their officers forced them to fire their weapons, and to aim high.Fear ran through the military leaders on both sides. They felt that their power was being challenged: soldiers declaring their brotherhood with each other and refusing to fight. Generals declared this unexpected peacemaking illegal and said that participating soldiers would face a military court. Those found guilty would be imprisoned or even shot. By March 1915 the socialising movement had been destroyed and the killing machine was back in full operation. Over the next three years more than fifteen million people died in the war.Not many people have heard the story of the Christmas Truce (休战). On Christmas Day, 1988, a local radio host in Boston played “Christmas in the Trenches”, a song about the Christmas Truce, several times and was stunned by his listeners' response. Thousands of people called in, praising the song, with many moved to tears by the amazing events it describes.You can probably guess why the callers were in tears. The Christmas Truce story goes against most of what we have been taught about people. It lets us see the world as it can be and says, “This really happened once.” It shows us the potential we have as humans, and contradicts all of those TV and newspaper stories that tell us how mean and heartless people are. It is like hearing that our deepest wishes really are true: the world really can be different.8.The soldiers began socialising with the enemy because ________.A.they couldn't bear the meaningless killingB.it was the best way to avoid being killedC.they feared that they would be caughtD.their enemies were from similar backgrounds9.How did the generals finally put an end to the soldiers' socialising?A.They sent the soldiers' loved ones to prison.B.They moved the two groups of soldiers furtherapart.C.They increased the number of officers to control the soldiers.D.They warned the soldiers that they would face severe punishment.10.The underlined word “stunned” in Paragraph 4 most probably means “________”.A.satisfied B.shockedC.amused D.confused11.The author uses the story of the soldiers to imply that human beings ________.A.are not trustworthy under stressB.are naturally aggressive and warlikeC.are basically caring and kind­heartedD.will always do what is in their own self­interestD(2016·日照5月模拟)Cheerleading (拉拉队) dates back to the late 19th century, when crowds began to chant and yell to encourage their teams. Credit for the first organized cheer was given to a University of Minnesota student named Johnny Campbell, who got the students to shout “Rah, rah, rah! Sku­u­mar, Hoo­rah! Hoo­rah! Varsity! Varsity! Varsity, Minn­e­so­ta!” for their football team in the 1898 season. Soon after, a yell­leader group of six male students was organized, a practice that became popular at numerous other universities.For the first few decades of its history cheerleading was an all­male activity, but by the 1920s, women began to take part in the activity as well. Nowadays more than 90% of America's cheerleading participants are female.In 1948, Lawrence Herkimer, a former Southern Methodist University cheerleader formed the National Cheerleaders Association (NCA). Herkimer is credited with creating many of cheerleading's fundamental moves.Cheerleading remained in its supporting role until the 1980s, when cheerleading competitions, organized by the National Cheerleaders Association and other groups, started to grow in popularity. For the first time, teams got off the sidelines and took centre stage, competing with teams from all over the U.S.Today cheerleaders can be found at almost any kind of sporting event, including the Olympics and the Cricket World Cup. The sport has spread from the U. S. to many other countries, like Mexico.12.Which of the following is TRUE to the first organized cheer?A.It started in the early 19th century.B.It made crowds around the school chant and yell to encourage their teams.C.It had the students shout certain words for their football team.D.It got a group of six male students to shout for their football team.13.At the early years of the cheerleading history ________ took part in the activity.A.only men B. only girlsC.both males and females D.both youths and adults14. After the 1980s, teams of cheerleading ________.A.played their part on the sidelinesB.could play their part on the centre stageC.stayed the same as they were beforeD.were completely different from what they were before15.The best title for this passage may be “________”.A.People who started cheerleadingB.How cheerleading was startedC.What cheerleading meansD.A brief history of cheerleadingⅡ.阅读七选五(2016·江西重点中学盟校联考)Yawn!

In 1999, an experiment turned a bear into a dolphin.2They were made of the memory area in the dolphin’ s brain containing information about swimming.They had a series of useful information,which was saved into a button-sized chip(芯片 ). Later the informationwas transplanted into the action memory area in the bear 3 ’ s brain.It proved to be a highly successful experiment and a bear was turnedinto a dolphin.Recently,another memory transplant was performed at the Motor Nerve Research Institute of the University of California. The experimenthad an entire transplant of the memory area.4The transplantwas performed from a dog named Genius to a dog named Idiot. Geniuscould follow up to 100 gestures and orders made by its master. It was areal genius in memorizing.However,Idiot had no contact with peoplesince its birth. It became an animal with nothing in its brain, withoutany memory.5 When the two dogs woke up, Idiot had grasped all the abilitiesGenius possessed; it was good at memorizing and sensible. It couldfollow every gesture and any command given by its master. But Geniusgave no response to its master, and did not recognize him at all.A. The experiment was a complete success.B. It included actions, moods, logic, words, images, etc.C. Then it was released by means of electric power.D. Different images have different meanings in the memory area.E. Using the most advanced technology, detailed images were produced.F. Discoveries show that messages are carried by the central nervous system inthe brain.G. One of the latest topics is how to change the human brain or combine it with thecomputer.2.W. Lloyd Jerome’ s Dental SurgeryIf you walk into W.Lloyd Jerome’ sdental surgery inYou ’ ll see bright paintings and a fashionable blue couch whichpatients sit on while he checks their teeth. Jerome says,“ That’ s__1__ “ That ’ swhy I don ’ t wear awhite coat. I find that’ ones of the things that people associate withpain. In fact, my philosophy is that dental treatment should take place inan atmosphere of relaxation, interest and, above all, enjoyment” , is all highly shocking for anyone who associates dental treatment withpain, or at the very least, formal, clinical visits. He says,“ If p relaxed, entertained and correctly treated, they will forget such previous“ Virtual -reality headsets are one of his new relaxation techniques.___2____ The headsets are used for the first check-up, where the patientsits on the blue couch and watches ar film while I look at their teeth. Then theheadset switches to a special camera, to give the patient avisual tour around their mouth.”“ Another key point is that the surgery smells more like a perfumeshop than a dentist ’Todays. there is the smell of orange. ‘ When people walk in, Iwant them to realize with all their senses that itlike going to dentist’ s. Smell is very important.3_____”Known as Glasgow’ s most fashionable dentist, Jerome is keen toJerome uses a special instrument which sprays warm water on the teethto clean them, rather than scraping them.“ It feels a bit strange, but as___5___ “ One of the things I found out there was that when youmake it easier for the patient, you make it easier for yoursel f.” He seeshis patient-centred attitude as the start of a gradual movement towardsless formality in the conservative British dentistry profession. At thatmoment, a patient arrives. Jerome rushes over, offers him a cup of tea,asks him what video he’ke dtoliwatch and leads him gently towardsthe chair.B.

Symptoms include stomachaches, tiredness, shaking, a racing heart andfrequent trips to the toilet.__1__ Most commonly it is the result of separation anxiety,but it can also be caused by different kinds of stress. A child who has recentlymoved, suffered a loss, or gone through a divorce may develop schoolphobia, and phobias can also develop in response to an unrecognizedlearning disability, and poor self-image.__2__ He or she may become physically ill when ordered to school,or pretend to be sick to avoid going. When the child arrives at school,he or she may run away, or develop behavioral problems in class. Whenschool is discussed, the child can become impatient, upset or angry.Many techniques can be used to manage school phobia.But research suggests that much more effective treatment is required for school phobia to prevent problems developing in later life.Children with this condition usually benefit from seeing a psychologist or doctor.__3__ As soon as a school phobia is identified,parents should take action too. Like other phobias,school phobia gets worse if it is left untreated, and it can prevent the child from succeeding in school. __4__If bullying is a cause,for example,the bullying situation should be solved.

These can be in a lined pattern,for a specific sound, or placed at random for a more varied effect. It isthen filled with a variety of different things, like small stones, orbeads( 珠子 ), or even rice, and the ends are capped to provide a seal.__1_____The origins of rainsticks are not really known and so the stories arequite varied. Some people say that the ancient peoples of Chile createdrainsticks from dried cactus(仙人掌 ), with the sharp points taken off,pushed back inside and then filled with small stones. __2_____The Deaguita Indians survive even today, and they are still using them inmany of their rain ceremonies. They also make them as musicalinstruments.___3____ Turning the stick over quickly will produce a higher sound,while turning it slowly will produce a deeper effect. How long the effectlasts depends on how long the instrument is. The tube also affects thequality of the rain sound as well. If you make them from some kind ofabsorbent material, like cactus or bamboo, you will hear it better thanif you were to make it from cardboard tubing.A rainstick can be made from almost any kind of material and thetypes of things that you can use as fillings can be even more varied.__4____ Usually, these school projects are made using a cardboard tube,like the center from a roll of toilet paper or a paper towel tube.Tooth picks are then inserted, with the exposed ends cut off andglued in place. ___5____A.You can even make your own rainsticks, and they are often part ofschool projects where they are used to help children learn the history of Indian peoples.B.When turned upside down, these materials fall down throughthe tube, bouncing off of the barriers to produce a calming rain-like sound.C.These were then capped with pieces of wood on the ends andused in ceremonies to bring rain to their crops.D.One end is capped off with poster board and filled with rice or beans, and thenthe other end is sealed.E.You can get different rain sounds, depending on how fast youturn the rainstick itself.F.This rainstick can never be opened according to the scaredwritings of the ancients.G.They can be three feet or longer depending on what the tube itselfis made from.5.Tips on Young Adult LifeAs you grow rapidly through your teenage years, you will experiencea lot of changes. The changes may seem difficult.1Don ’ t panic! You will deal successfully with them! You are a young adult now!With more responsibility, you will find more freedom to make yourown choices. This is a time to be well informed about making choices. Inthis way you can make healthy balanced decisions.2You may already know your career path or you may have no idea at all what youwant to do. Both situations are fine! Work hard and the right opportunity will present itself to you.Young adulthood means greater freedom and more choices.3 But try not to shut your family out of your life. You school learn to thinkof others even though you are old enough to look after yourself.It is also perfectly natural at this time for you to spend more time with your friends than your family4 A true friend will stand by youno matter what happens.This period is a part of the life cycle. There are some people who willbe with you throughout life’ s journey. There will be some people with whom you part and go separate ways. Leaving school can be hard.The reality is that you may not even see all of your classmates again.You are a young adult. It is your life. No one can live it for you.5 So making the right choices will be important to you. Life is for living.Enjoy your life wisely!A. Choose your friends wisely.B.They will help shape the future.C. They may seem to happen quickly.D. You will probably want to be independent.E.You may appreciate what you have in your own life.F.The choices that you make from now on will be your choices.G. Your family has been with you since you came into this world.6.The First AmericansThere was a time long ago when a land bridge connected Asia andNorth America.The first settlers in North America crossed this landbridge from what is now Siberia to Alaska. The people who made thisinitial crossing were probably following the animals they used for food.Eventually,the oceans rose and the land bridge between the continents disappeared.The set tlers,who I shall call the“ First Americans ” , could not return to their homeland.1For the next few thousand years,the First Americans migratedsouth and east throughout North and South America.They made thejourney all the way from Alaska to the southern tip of South America, adistance of more than 10,000 miles.2In the far north, above the Arctic Circle, the First Americans becamehunters of the ocean.3In the brief summer,they gathered berriesand other plants. In the winter, they stayed in lodges much of the timepreparing for the next summer. It was a hard life,but they learned tosurvive in these harsh conditions.Farther south,in what is now Arizona,Utah,Colorado,and New Mexico, the First Americans became cliff dwellers(悬崖居民 ). They beganby living in caves that already existed in the cliffs.4The dwellingsthey constructed in many ways resembled today’ s apartment buildings.5They built a system of dams and canals so they could store and usewater almost any time of the year. They were so successful thatthey could raise fruits and vegetables that were not found naturallyin the desert.In Mexico and South America, the First Americans founded civilizations thatwere among the greatest in the world. They built hugepyramids, lived in fabulous cities, and made great advances in science andmathematics long before the Europeans arrived.A. They also discovered foods like corn and potatoes.B. Along the way, they established many different civilizations.C. The First Americans of the Southwest learned to irrigate the desert.D. They would have to survive in the New World they had discovered.E. They built boats of animal skins and hunted or fished for their food.F. People living near each other tended to share similar environmentsand customs.G. They discovered how to add to the caves by building structures ofwood and stone.7.Public Speaking and Critical ThinkingWhat is critical thinking?To a certain degree,it’ sa matter of logic — of being able to spot weakness in other people’ arguments and to avoid them in your own. It also includes related skills such as distinguishing fact from opinion and assessing the soundness of evidence.In the broad sense, critical thinking is focused, organized thinking—the ability to see clearly the relationships among ideas.___1____ The greatest thinkers, scientists and inventors have often taken informationthat was readily available and put it together differently to produce newideas. That, too, is critical thinking.___2___ As the class goes on, for example, you will probably spend agreat deal of time organizing your speeches. While this may seem like apurely mechanical(机械的 ) exercise, it is closely connected with critical thinking. If the structure of your speech is loose and confused, chancesare that your thinking is also disordered and confused. If, on the otherhand, the structure is clear, there is good chance your thinking is too. Organizing a speech is not just a matter of arranging the ideas you already have. __3____What is true of organization is true of many aspects of public speaking.___4___ As you work on expressing your ideas in clear, accurate language,you will improve your ability to think clearly and accurately.___5___ As you learn to listen critically to speeches in class, you will be better able to assess the ideas of speakers in a variety of situations.If you take full advantage of your speech class,you will be able to develop your skills as a critical thinker in many circumstances.This is one reason public speaking has been regarded as a vital part of education since the days of ancient Greece.A. Rather, it is an important part of shaping the ideas themselves.B. This may seem like a lot of time, but the rewards are well worth it.C. It may also help you to know that there is no such thing as a perfectspeech.D. It has often been said that there are few new ideas in the world, onlyreorganized ideas.E. If you are wondering what this has to do with your public speakingclass, the answer is quite a lot.F. The skills you learn in your speech class can help you become a moreeffective thinker in a number of ways.G. As you study the role of evidence and reasoning in speechmaking, you will see how they can be used in other forms of communication.8.ShopaholismThe word addiction usually makes you think of alcohol or drugs.1Some people are compulsive shoppers. Others find it impossibleto pull themselves away from their work. Still others spend countless hours watching TV or playing computer games.2Many people enjoy going to malls or stores more and more every day, but it’ s more than a common hobby for some of them. They have turned into shopaholics.They are people who simply enjoy shopping and walking around spending money without being able to stop doing it. They are hooked on shopping and usually buy things thatthey don ’ t need. Even though they don’ t have enough money, they buy everything they want.The question is: why do they have this addic tion?There isn’ ta specific answer. Some people go shopping when they are sad, worried,upset or lonely and they want to feel better. They use this activity as away to forget their problems.Shopaholics say that they feel more important and better after they buy something.3Shopaholism seems to be a harmless addiction, but it can bring outproblems. Some of them can be psychological. If this is the case, peopleaddicted to shopping should go to a support group to help them breakthis habit.However,the process, like for most addictions,is long,and they suffer a lot.4They just think about satisfyingtheir feelings, so they spend money they don’5 t have.A. Once you are addicted to alcohol or drugs, it is difficult to get rid of.B. Over the years, shopping has become a very common activity.C.

In addition, each juice box contained nearlyeight teaspoons of sugar.3Let ’ stake jam as an example. Some strawberry -flavored jamwas labeled as containing no artificial colors, flavors, or sweeteners,but it contained absolutely no strawberries at all.4Consumers have the rights to know clearly about what theyhave bought. Under current UK law, food packages do not have to distinguish between natural and artificial fl avoring.“ Describing aproduct as strawberry flavor and covering the surface of the packet withpictures of strawberries is misleading.5Unfortunately,it is alsolegal and widespread,” Tokelove said.“ It’ s time to take measures to protect the consu mers ’ rights.”A. The products which contain real fruit are popular with people.B. Even products advertised as more natural often contained no fruit.C. They found that about 60 percent of them didn ’ t contain any fruit at all.D. If companies can cut their costs by using flavoring, they are likelyto do so.E. It is important and necessary to demand a small amount offlavoring in the products.F. Actually the product contains just a tiny percentage of strawberryor even no fruit at all.G.

However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your sport of choice might have great influence on the environment.Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, but also tons of water.Besides, all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses(球场)in good condition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain, golf is often held responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas.There are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You don't need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes; and you don't have to worry about resources and your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also keep you fit. If you walk regularly, it will be good for your heart and bones. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and have better weight control.Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be "green gyms". They are better replacements(代替物)for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gyms play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no special requirement for you to start your membership. And best of all, it's free.24.

2017届高三英语二轮复习第二板块题型四阅读七选五教师用书

题型四阅读七选五[全国卷3年考情分析][命题者说]阅读七选五不但要求学生扎实地掌握词汇和句子、语段和语篇等方面的知识,而且要求学生具备综合分析和辩证的逻辑思维能力,这是实现学生对阅读材料深层理解的基础性能力。

这种题型的语篇的主线通常都很清晰,通常都是具有明确的逻辑关系的议论文或说明文。

该题型中设有五个空,而对应的选项有七个,其中有两个选项为干扰性错误选项。

这七个选项通常包括主旨句、过渡性句子、细节注释性句子三类。

主旨句主要以标题类和主题句为主,过渡性句子通常涉及文章结构,细节注释性句子主要涉及上下文逻辑意义。

因此学生需要根据文章结构、内容选出正确的选项填入相应的空白处。

新课程标准中“提高学生用英语获取信息、处理信息、分析问题和解决问题的能力”的阅读学习的教学理念在本题型中得以充分的体现,学生对文章的整体内容和结构以及上下文逻辑关系的理解和掌握也得到了考查。

综合上表可知,段首题和段中题是考查重点,而段中题又以并列或递进关系和转折或让步关系居多,这就要求考生必须联系上下文去做题,仔细揣摩上下句之间的逻辑关系。

因此,在做阅读七选五时,考生可以从“位置”和“逻辑”两个角度来把握该题型的解题技巧。

下面我们就从这两个角度分两个方面来突破这一题型!一、基础保分课——掌握通性通法,内化快捷解题路径对应学生用书P58[通法总览][题型分解]一段首题1.空格为主旨句在某段第一句设空的内容通常是该段落主旨句,学生需要通过认真研读该段的内容,然后从选项中查找下文的同义词或其他相关词或句的方法,从而确定答案;有时则需反复读设空处后面一两句或更多内容,确定关键信息词,然后在各个选项中查找关联词和信息句。

一般正确答案选项与所设空后的第一句在意义上是紧密衔接的,因此正确选项和原文的内容是连贯且符合逻辑的。

[典例] (2016·全国卷Ⅰ)__38__ You might represent each letter with a number, for example. Let's number the letters of the alphabet, in order, from 1 to 26. If we substitute a number for each letter, the message “Meet me” would read “13 5 5 20 13 5.”►G.Another way to hide a message is to use symbols to stand for specific lettersof the alphabet.分析:本题空格在段首,需要填一个主旨句或一个承上启下句。

The River Indians used it as a highway and as a source of food, and it was they who gave it its name—―misi‖ meaning ―great‖ and ―sipi‖ meaning ―water‖. When the length of its branch, the Missouri, is added to it, the Mississippi becomes greater. ___71___. From the source of the Missouri to the tip of the delta (三角洲), it is 2,480 miles long.Great rivers are likely to suffer floods. In 1927 the Mississippi flooded 26 thousand acres, sweeping away farms, towns, everything in its path. In 1938 its floods drowned or killed 200 people and made millions homeless. Today the river has largely been controlled. ___72___.Industries have spread down some of the waterways of the delta, but otherwise the delta is a remote place, the homeland of a little colony of French Canadians that the British drove out of Nova Scotia in the 18th century. They still speak French, mixed with English, Indian, Spanish and Negro idioms. They keep to themselves, farming the rich soil of the delta. ___73___.___74___. Pioneers who first reached its banks wondered not only where it went, but what lay beyond. In 1764 the French founded a city on the right bank of the river, and named it after their king, Louis XV. This city, named St. Louis, became the jumping-off place for the adventurous men and women who opened up the Great Plains, and the way to the Far West.Some 40 years earlier, at the beginning of the 18th century, the French had founded another city just above the Mississippi delta, New Orleans. ___75___. New Orleans is one of the great ports of the world, and one of the greatest terminals for both sea and river traffic.A. It was the Mississippi that made the city what it isB. Levees, high banks built of earth, hold back the flood watersC. Therefore, as we know, it‘s the third longest river in the worldD. It is known that the ―Great Water‖ has also been a frontier riverE. However, they paddled up and down the Mississippi in their boats to seek their fortuneF. The ―Great Water‖ always remains a thread, for the streets of the city are below the level of the riverG. They call themselves Cajuns, who have actually been leading fairly primitive lives and preserving theirown traditionsA. Rather Public speaking and critical thinkingWhat is critical thinking? T o a certain degree ,it‘s a matter of logic (逻辑)—of being a ble to spot weaknesses in other people ‗s argument and to avoid them in your own ,it also includes related skills such as distinguishing fact from opinion and assessing the soundness of evidence .In the broad sense, critical thinking is focused ,organized thinking –the ability to see clearlytheir relationships among ideas. 71 the greatest thinkers, scientists, and inventors have often taken information that was readily available and put it together differently to produce new ideas.that, too, is critical thinking.72 As the class goes on, for example, you will probably spend a good deal of time organizing your speeches. While this may seem like a purely mechanical(机械的)exercise, it is closely connected with critical thinking. If the structure of your speech is loose and confused, chances are that your thinking. If the structure of your speech is loose and confused, chances are that your thinking is also discovered and confused. If, on the other hand ,the structure is clear, there is a good chance your thinking is too. Organizing a speech is not a matter of arranging the ideas your already have. 73What is true of organization is true of many aspects of public speaking. 74 As you work on expressing your ideas in clear, accurate language, you will Improve your ability to think clearly and accurately. 75 As you learn to listen critically to speeches in class. You will be better able to assess the ideas of speakers in a variety of situations.If you take full advantage of your speech class, you will be able to develop your skills as critical thinker in many circumstances. This is one reason public speaking has been regarded as a vital part of education since the days of ancient Greece.A, it is an important part of shaping the ideas themselves.B. This may seem like a lot of time, but the rewards are well worth it.C. It may also help you to know that there is no such thing as a perfect speech.D. It has often been said that there are few new ideas in the world, only reorganized ideas.E. If you are wondering what this has to do with your public speaking class, the answer is quite a lot.F. The skills you learn in your speech class can help you become a more effective thinker in a number of ways.G. As you study the role of evidence and reasoning in speechmaking ,you will see how they can be used in other forms of communication as well.Life Story of Dave ThomasSince 1989.Dave Thomas,who died of cancer at age 69 in his Fort Lauderdale home, was one of the most recognizable faces on TV. 1 “As long as it works,”he said in 1991, “I’ll continue to do those commercials.”2 “He still won’t let anyone see his feet,which are out of shape because he never had proper-fitting shoes,”Wendy said in 1993.Born to a single mother,he was adopted as a baby by Rex and Auleva Thomas of Kalamazoo in Michigan.After Auleva died when he was 5, Thomas spent years on the road as Rex traveled around seeking construction work.“He fed me,”Thomas said, “and if I got out of line.He’d beat me. ”Moving out on his own at 15,Thomas worked, first as a waiter,in many restaurants.3 “I thought if I owned a restaurant,”he said, “I could eat for free.”A 1956 meeting with Harland Sanders led Thomas to a career as a Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurant owner that made him a millionaire in 1968.In 1969, after breaking with Sanders,Thomas started the first Wendy‘s old Fashioned Hamburgers, in Columbus, Ohio,which set itself apart by serving made-to-order burgers 4 .Although troubled by his own experience with adoption,Thomas,married since 1954 to Lorraine.66.and with four grown kids besides Wendy,felt it could offer a future for other children. He started the Dave Thomas Foundation(基金会)for Adoption in 1992.In 1993,Thomas,who had left school at 15,graduated from Coconut Creek High School in Florida. 5 The kids voted him Most Likely to Succeed.“The Dave you saw on TV,”says friend Pat Williams,senior vice president of the Orlando Magic, “was the real Dave.He wasn‘t a great actor or a great speaker. He was just Joe Everybody.”A.But he had something much better in mind.B.He even took Lorraine to the graduation dance party.C.Even though he was successful,Thomas remained troubled by his childhood.D.By using his experience and determination,Thomas turned the restaurants around.E.With 6,000 restaurants worldwide,the chain now makes $6 billion a year in sales.F.He appeared in more than 800 commercials for the hamburger chain named for his daughter,now 40.G.He dropped out of school to work full-time.This decision to drop out haunted him until he went back to school 45 years later.Passage 7As is known to all, many things can be measured in terms of data. Sometimes data can indeed tell the truth. With the help of data we can easily know the price of a can of Coke in the supermarket or the result of a football match. 71 What is more important, data seem to be fairer than words or statements. If the data are true, we don‘t have to worry about being cheated. Nowadays, as lies exist in the world, data are expected to tell the truth. Therefore, many of us would rather believe data.On the other hand, if we judge things only by data from the so-called specific research, aren‘t we a little too narrow-minded? Many people often treat the so-called specific data unwisely just to make sure that they are making the right decisions. 72 For example, how can you tell that somebody isn‘t a good student just because he or she doesn‘t get high marks in the final examination?73 For example, the degree of your feeling happy in your life, the depth of love between you and your friends, and the faith you have in your country. We can only feel them in our hearts but can never express them in data.There is no doubt that analyzing the exact data is important to assessment of an actual event. But data should be dealt with wisely. We often get wrong data which mislead us.74 Remember, data have no feeling but we humans have. Data do not mean much to people if we do not have the abilities to analyze the data with the knowledge and confidence to judge whether they are true or false. 75Data are data after all. Life is much more colourful than the pale data. So give the cold data a warm heart and we‘ll find that the world is far more wonderful than the pale data can describe.A. We should try our best to be wise thinkers.B. Data can make our life easier and more comfortable.C. But sometimes we may find that data aren‘t everything.D. Sometimes our hearts and mind are more sensitive than data.E. Now and then the so-called specific data puzzle us very much.F. The exact data should come from assessment of an actual event.G. There are many things in our life which cannot be measured by data.1.(Key: AECDB)2.71. G 72. E 73. A 74. F 75. C3. 71. G 72. E 73. A 74. F 75. C4.71. C 72. B 73. G 74. D 75. A 5.DEAFG6.Keys :1.

高中英语真题:2017届高三上学期第二次模拟考试英语试题Word版.doc一、阅读理解(共4题)1.Master painter Zhang Daqian (1899-1983) was well known for having a large number of friends and students. Among them, painter Li Qiujun was special.They got to know each other through Li's elder brother, who was one of Zhang's best friends.They admired each other's artistic talent and became confidants, which resulted in a romantic relationship.In 1948, Zhang produced Spring Clouds Amid Autumn Landscape, a mountain-and-water ink painting featuring gongbi (meticulous brushwork), as a gift for Li's 50th birthday.A year later, Zhang permanently departed from the mainland, and traveled and exhibited around the world before settling down in Taipei in1976.After leaving the mainland, he often said that he missed Li, who died in Shanghai in 1973.Spring Clouds Amid Autumn Landscape will be auctioned in Hong Kong on Oct 4.The painting not only marks a friendship between the two painters, but it deserves special attention because it shows Zhang at the top of his game as he sought to master the mountain-and-water style, according to C.K. Cheung, head of Sotheby's Chinese painting department.Sotheby's will auction the work at its major autumn sale, which runs from Oct 1 to 5.Cheung says the painting's composition and Zhang's attention to details reflect his incorporation of traditional touches, especially from Song Dynasty (960-1279) paintings, while also developing his own style.21. The underlined word “confidants” in paragraph 3 probably means ____.A. enemiesB. collegesC. friendsD. painters22. How old was Li Qiujun when she died?A. 50B. 75C. 78D. 8423. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. Spring Clouds Amid Autumn Landscape was originally a gift for Li's 50th birthday.B. Zhang Daqian permanently departed from the mainland in 1949.C. Sotheby's will auction Spring Clouds Amid Autumn Landscape inHong Kong.D. Li Qiujun's elder brother was also one of ZhangDaqian's students.2.A new international study shows that some people's biological clock plays a powerful role for their life expectancy, regardless of lifestyle choices.Published in the latest issue of Aging on Wednesday, the study has found the most definitive evidence to explain why some people keep healthy lifestyle but die younger than others.Geneticist Steve Horvath from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), led a team of 65 scientists around the world to record age-related changes to human DNA, analyse blood samples collected from 13,000 people and estimate their lifespan.A higher biological age, regardless of actual age, consistently predicts an earlier death, the study says."You get people who are vegan, sleep 10 hours a day, have a low-stress job, and still end up dying young," Horvath said in a statement. "We have shown some people have a faster innate aging rate."The findings discovered that 5 percent of the population ages at a faster biological rate, which translated to a roughly 50 percent higher than average risk of death at any age."The great hope is that we find anti-aging interventions that would slow your innate aging rate," Horvath said, adding that "this is an important milestone to realizing this dream."24. Some people keep healthy lifestyle but die younger than others because ______.A. their biological clock is not powerful enoughB. the most definitive evidence has been foundC. they have a higher actual age than othersD. they ages at a relatively faster biological rate25. How was the study conducted?A. By collecting and analyzing dataB. By interviewing lots of peopleC. By researching previous studiesD. By studying different lifestyles26. According to the study, it can be inferred that ______.A. people who keep healthy lifestyle tend to live longerB. people’s lifespan can be predicted by their ageC. 5 percent of people are believed to have a faster innate aging rateD. anti-aging interventions have proved to slow the innate aging rate27. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. We all should keep healthy lifestyleB. Geneticist finds anti-aging interventionsC. Biological clock predicts life expectancyD. Horvath builds an important milestone3.As a Chinese saying goes, “Taste is actually a memory of childhood”. Local specialty food may not be popular among all people, but it offers outsiders a glimpse of local culture and history.Gongcheng “oil tea” is such a kind of food that would be considered “weird” by ma ny first-time visitors to the remote county in the north of the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Many people dislike its bitter and astringent(涩的)flavor when they take a sip.“It felt like drinking Chinese herbal medicine. I never expected that I wou ld gradually accept it afterwards, and even become addicted to it,” said a traveler surnamed Zhang who comes from Shijiazhuang in northern China’s Hebei province.Langshan village is said to be the birthplace of Gongcheng “oil tea” whose ideal ingredients are green tea and fermented tea. The village has preserved well its buildings and roads dating back to late Qing Dynasty (1644-1911), as well as its traditional way of making the special tea.Lin Fengyou, 60, introduced the cooking process. She looks younger than her age, and attributes this to the benefits of drinking “oil tea” throughout the year.The first procedure is to use a wooden hammer to pound the tea whileheating it in an iron pot, and then add edible oil and boiled water afterwards. She filters off the solid residues(余渣), and pours the glue-like green tea soup into bowls. Then, she adds salt, caraway seed, green onion, dried rice, fried groundnuts, sliced taro and fried beans.The taste of the “oil tea” is a mixture of the distin ctive flavors of all its ingredients. Local people usually eat it together with glutinous rice(糯米)balls, rice dumplings and glutinous rice cake.The villagers consume “oil tea” three times a day. The tea soup is a healthy and refreshing food. “The tea soup to us is coffee to Westerners”, said Lin. “But it is tastier.”28. Many first-time visitors may find “oil tea” ______ when taking a sip.A. popularB. strangeC. addictedD. beneficial29. What can we learn about Lin Fengyou according to the passage?A. She never expected that she would gradually accept “oil tea”.B. She is one of the reasons why the special tea has been preserved.C. She thinks drinking “oil tea” throughout the year makes her look younger.D. She drinks “oil tea” three times every day and considers coffee tastier.30. Which is the correct order of cooking “oil tea” according to Lin Fengyou?a. pour the glue-like green tea soup into bowlsb. heat the tea in an iron pot and pound the teac. add salt, caraway seed, green onion, dried rice, etcd. add edible oil and boiled watere. filter off the solid residuesA. bdeacB. dbaceC. acebdD. beadc31. Which column is this passage probably taken from?A. Culture & EducationB. EntertainmentC. HealthD. Travel4.China's largest search engine Baidu has said it will make its latestartificial intelligence (AI) technology accessible to developers and businesses as part of the company's latest move into AI, big data and cloud computing.AI solution "Tianzhi" was launched at a cloud-computing summit held in Beijing Wednesday. It includes services in three fields: sensing technology, such as image and voice processing, machine learning, and deep learning, an advanced form of machine learning, said Zhang Yaqin, CEO of the Nasdaq-listed company, at the summit.Developers can access facial or voice recognition, algorithms(演算法)for data analysis and projections, and deep learning applications, Zhang said, adding that the technology could help users innovate in their sectors."With more devices connected to the cloud, enterprises will use cloud computing and AI more frequently," said Wu Hequan, an academician at the Chinese Academy of Engineering, "Open AI technology can play a bigger role."The company also revealed a plan to invest 10 billion yuan (1.45 billion U.S. dollars) in cloud computing in the next five years and establish an innovation center, which will serve 10 million enterprises.32.

You canpicture the scene of the man--it is usually a man--driving blindly around an unfamiliar town looking for an address he doesn’t know. 37 And he could get to his appointment on time. It is obvious to everybody in such a case that asking for help is not a sign of weakness, but rather the sensible thing to do.38 For example, you are looking for a new job and need to write your resume(简历). If your pride prevents you from getting help and you just do the writing yourself, it may well cost the opportunity you are seeking. Similarly, when you just started a new job, you often don’t want to admit that you haven’t got the knowledge to finish a particular task, so you keep going and eventually make things worse than they were. This may lead to a diminishing(贬低)of you in the eyes of the boss. 39Now you can see that asking for help is not a sign of weakness but is the sensible and mature thing to do. 40 Making your life easier by asking for and using knowledgeable help is not a sign of weakness, but is actually quite a clever thing to do.A. What’s worse, you are most likely to lose the new job.B. Actually speaking, asking for help is not a sign of weakness.C. There are times when you know you don’t have the relevant experience.D. If only he would stop and ask for directions, he could save lots of time.E. However, many people tend to make mistakes over and over when help is available.F. You will also recognize expert help would save your time, energy and money.G. You can accustom yourself to asking for help sooner or later.2. I’ve dreamed of becoming a writer since I was a teenager. But 61_____ isn’t easy to get a book of mine published. 62_____ I’ve tried hard, none of my books have been published. This is really 63_____ (upset).This morning, I received a call from a publisher and 64_____ (tell) onceagain that there was no way my book would be published. 65_____ (feel) sad, I left home and went to the park near my apartment.

Half the teens said they also use Instagram and 4 in 10 said they used Snapchat.Among 22 per cent of teens who use just one site,66 per cent use Facebook,13 percent use Google Plus,13 percent are Instagram users and 3 percent use Snapchat.Facebook was the site they used most frequently,at 41 percent,followed by Instagram at 20 percent and Snapchat at 11 percent.Boys are more likely than girls to report they visit Facebook most often-at 45 percent versus 36 percent of girls.Teens from households with earnings of less than $50,000 are more likely to use Facebook the most—49 percent compared with 37 percent of teens from households with earnings of $50,000 or more.As far as how much time is spent on social media,24 percent of teens overall go online “almost constantly,” the study said,with 56 per centsaying they go online several times a day and 12 per cent reporting once-a-day use.Among other sites the 1,060 teens were asked about are Twitter,Vine and Tumblr.33 percent said they use Twitter and Google Plus,while 24 percent said they use Vine and 14 percent said Tumblr。

阅读七选五专练(三)A(2016·山西省3月高考考前教学质量检测)Transportation plays a very important role in people's lives. The automobile is the main form of transportation in some countries. __1__Cars release 30 percent of the carbon dioxide in the earth's air.

They also choose other forms of transportation that do not harm the environment.We should not ignore how the released emissions have damaged our lungs and environment. A massive change must be addressed, reducing the amount of driving time around America. __4__ The creation of the automobile has dug America a deep hole.

You don't want to automatically turn to medication, especially if your worries are temporary. Fortunately, you can do something about it using these four tips to overcome anxiety.Breathe deeply.When you get anxious, your breathing quickens, which reduces the amount of oxygenyour brain gets. __1__ Take a moment to focus on taking deep belly breaths. Inhale for 4 seconds, hold the breath for 4 seconds, and then release it for 4 seconds. Doing this for 1-2 minutes should help to calm your nerves quickly.__2__Whether anxiety has just struck or you are chronically anxious, exercising is sure to help. Physical activity releases endorphin which increases happiness, and reduces cortisol —a stress producing hormone. As soon as you start to feel anxiety hit, go workout or take a walk. Aside from immediate treatment, regular exercise will decrease the amount of anxiety you feel over time.Meditate or pray.__3__ When anxious thoughts start to hit, retreat inwards and repeat a positive mantra (祷文) to yourself or pray. Focus entirely on this, and eventually your anxiety will disappear on its own.Try an herbal remedy.You don't have to rely solely on chemical filled with medications to relieve your anxiety. __4__ Many scientific studies have shown a strong link between reduced anxiety and taking supplements of St. Johns wort, valerian root, and chamomile. __5__ A.Take some time to exercise.B.Instead, try an all­natural herbal remedy.C.Walking is a good way to keep fears and anxieties away.D.Try one of these supplements before heading for heavier medications.E.This makes it more difficult to think clearly and form logical reasoning.F.It's helpful to engage in deep breathing before an anxiety­provoking social situation.G.Consciously taking your thoughts off your stressor and focusing them inwards on something peaceful will reduce your anxiety and fear immensely.C(2016·福州市普通高中毕业班质量检查)Get a Thorough Understanding of OneselfIn all one's life time it is oneself that one spends the most time being with or dealing with. __1__When you are going upwards in life you tend to overestimate (高估) yourself. It seems that everything you seek for is within your reach. __2__ It's likely that you think it wise for yourself to stay away from the outer world. Actually, to geta thorough understanding of oneself, you may as well keep the following tips in mind.Gain a correct view of oneself. You may look forward hopefully to the future but be sure not to expect too much, for dreams can never be fully realized. You may be courageous to meet challenges but it should be clear to you where to direct your efforts. __3__Self­appreciate.Whether you compare yourself to a towering tree or a blade of grass, a high mountain or a small stone, you represent a state of nature. __4__If you earnestly (诚挚地) admire yourself you'll have a real sense of self­appreciation.__5__ In time of anger, do yourself a favor by releasing (释放) it in a quiet place so that you won't be hurt by its flames; in time of sadness, do yourself a favor by sharing it with your friends so as to change a bad mood into a cheerful one; in time of tiredness, do yourself a favor by getting a good sleep.Get a full control of one's life. Then one will find one's life full of color and flavor.A.It has its own value.B.Do oneself a favor when it's needed.C.Do yourself a favor when you resist the attack of illness.D.But it is precisely oneself that one has the least understanding of.E.Especially if it is well within your reach, you are just too blind to see it.F.When you are going downhill you tend to underestimate yourself for your own incompetence.G.So long as you have a perfect knowledge of yourself, there won't be difficulties you can't overcome.D(2016·石家庄市第二中学高三第二次适应训练)Running for 30-40 minutes three times a week can be a fantastic way to build muscle while losing fat. __1__Stretch 5-10 minutes before each run. __2__ That is vitally important to avoid injury and too much stress on your body. Moving from top to bottom (or bottom to top), rotate your joints clockwise and counter­clockwise until they feel loose and easy.Avoid heel­striking. When running, many people tend to overextend their leg whenstriding forward, resulting in a great amount of heel­s triking. __3__ Imagine how you would run if you had on no shoes at all — you would avoid striking your heel because it would hurt. So when you go running, run with the barefoot model in mind.Learn to “run tall”. To help you maintain the right posture, rem ind yourself to “run tall” — that is, hold your body as though someone were pulling you up by your hair, with a slight forward lean. To help you get the sense of what the proper position feels like, interlock your hands and rest them on your head, then run. That's the body position you want to maintain.__4__ Don't allow your arms to cross over your body —it's bad form and it wastes energy.Breathe regularly. Keep an even rate of breathing while running. __5__ That is, take deep breaths into your stomach rather than shallow breaths into your chest.A.It is both bad for your form and for your lower body.B.Keep your muscles flexible.C.Keep your arms beside your body.D.Here are some tips on how to take exercise.E.How do you get started if you're new to running?F.Breathe with your belly.G.Breathe deeply.阅读七选五专练(三)A语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了汽车给人类带来便利的同时其尾气也对环境造成了危害,并就此给出了相关的补救措施。
