She has bought a bicycle and is worried about security (安全). Her friend, Kate, found this article and sent it to her.IntroductionA lot of crime is against bicycles. About 150, 000 bicycles are stolen every year and most are never found. You can prevent this happening by following a few careful steps.Basic SecurityDo not leave your bicycle in out-of-the-way places. Always lock your bicycle when you leave. Secure it to lampposts or trees. Take off smaller parts and take them with you, for example lights and saddles (车座).LocksGet a good lock. There are many different types in the shops. Buy one that has been tested against attack. Ask for a recommendation from a bike shop.MarkingSecurity marking your bike can TAL#NBSP act as a deterrent to a thief. It can also help the police find your bicycle. It should be clearly written and include your postcode and your house or flat number. This will provide a simple way to identify your bicycle.RegistrationThere are a number of companies who will mark your bicycle for you. They will then put your registration number and personal details on their computer database. Then if your bicycle is found it will be easy to contact you.FinallyKeep a record of the bicycle yourself: its make, model and registration number. You can even take a photograph of it. This will prove the bicycle belongs to you.(1) Which part of the text gives you information on how to lock up your bicycle when you leave it?A. Locks.B. Marking.C. Registration.D. Basic Security.(2) The underlined phrase "act as a deterrent to a thief" means.A. help you recognize your bikeB. help the police find your bicycleC. stop someone stealing your bicycleD. stop you worrying about your bike(3) The article advises you to keep a record of your bicycle.A. in the bike shop and your computerB. in the police station and a security companyC. in a security company and your universityD. by yourself and in a security company(4) The main purpose of this article is.A. to tell you what to do if your bicycle is stolenB. to suggest ways of keeping your bicycle safeC. to give you advice on where to buy a good lockD. to say why you shouldn't keep your bicycle in a quiet place18、【来源】 2007年高考真题江苏卷(B篇)第60~63题8分(每题2分)Professor Barry Wellman of the University of Toronto in Canada has invented a term to describe the way many North Americans interact (互动) these days. The term is "TAL#NBSP networked individualism". This concept is not easy to understand because the words seem to have opposite meanings. How can we be individuals (个体) and be networked at the same time? You need other people for networks.Here is what Professor Wellman means. Before the invention of the Internet and e-mail, our social networks included live interactions with relatives, neighbors, and friends. Some of the interaction was by phone, but it was still voice to voice, person to person, in real time.A recent research study by the Pew Internet and American Life Project showed that for a lot of people, electronic interaction through the computer has replaced this person-to-person interaction. However, a lot of people interviewed for the Pew study say that's a good thing. Why?In the past, many people were worried that the Internet isolated (孤立) us and caused us to spend too much time in the imaginary world of the computer. But the Pew study discovered that the opposite is true. The Internet connects us with more real people than expected — helpful people who can give advice on careers, medical problems, raising children, and choosing a school or college. About 60 million Americans told Pew that the Internet plays an important role in helping them make major life decisions.Thanks to the computer, we are able to be alone and together with other people — at the same time!(1) The underlined phrase "networked individualism" probably means that by using computerspeople.A. stick to their own ways no matter what other people sayB. have the rights and freedom to do things of their own interestC. do things in their own ways and express opinions different from other peopleD. are able to keep to themselves but at the same time reach out to other people(2) According to the Pew study, what do many people rely on to make major life decisions?A. Networks.B. Friends.C. Phones.D. Parents.(3) It can be inferred from the Pew study that.A. people have been separated from each other by using computersB. the Internet makes people waste a lot of time and feel very lonelyC. the Internet has become a tool for a new kind of social communicationD. a lot of people regard the person-to-person communication as a good thing(4) Which would be the best title for this passage?A. We're Alone on the Internet.B. We're Communicating on the Internet.C. We're Alone Together on the Internet.D. We're in the Imaginary World of the Internet.19、【来源】 2007年高考真题江苏卷(C篇)第64~67题8分(每题2分)Experience the newly opened Grand Canyon (大峡谷) West Skywalk in Colorado.

The right half controls the left side.One half of the brain is always dominant (in charge). Usually, the left brain is dominant, which is why 90% of people are right-handed.(1) Which part of your cerebrum is most active when you are making a telephone call?A. The frontal lobe.B.

My mom was one of those people.My father died when I was nine months old, making my mom a single mother at the age of eighteen. While I was growing up, we lived a very hard life. We had little money, but my mom gave me a lot of love.Each night, she sat me on her lap and spoke the words that would change my life, "Kemmons, you are certain to be a great man and you can do anything in life if you work hard enough to get it."At fourteen, I was hit by a car and the doctors said I would never walk again. Every day, my mother spoke to me in her gentle, loving voice, telling me that no matter what those doctors said, I could walk again if I wanted to badly enough. She drove that message so deep into my heart that I finally believed her.A year later, I returned to school—walking on my own!When the Great Depression (大萧条) hit, my mom lost her job. Then I left school to support the both of us. At that moment, I was determined never to be poor again.Over the years, I experienced various levels of business success. But the real turning point occurred on a vacation I took with my wife and five kids in 1951. I was dissatisfied with the second-class hotels available for families and was angry that they charged an extra 2 dollars for each child. That was too expensive for the average American family. I told my wife that I was going to open a motel (汽车旅馆)for families that would never charge extra for children. There were plenty of doubters at that time.Not surprisingly, mom was one of my strongest supporters. She worked behind the desk and even designed the room style. As in any business, we experienced a lot of challenges. But with my mother's words deeply rooted in my soul, I never doubted we would succeed. Fifteen years later, we had the largest hotel system in the world—Holiday Inn. In 1979 my company had 1, 759 inns in more than fifty countries with an income of $1 billion a year.You may not have started out life in the best situation. But if you can find a task in life worth working for and believe in yourself, nothing can stop you.(1) What Kemmons' mom often told him during his childhood was.A. caringB. movingC. encouragingD. interesting(2) According to the author, who played the most impor-tant role in makinghim walk back to school again?A. Doctors.B. Nurses.C. Friends.D. Mom.(3) What caused Kemmons to start a motel by himself?A. His terrible experience in the hotel.B. His previous business success of various levels.C. His mom's support.D. His wife's suggestion.(4) Which of the following best describes Kemmons' mother?A. Modest, helpful, and hard-working.B. Loving, supportive and strong-willed.C. Careful, helpful and beautiful.D. Strict, sensitive and supportive.(5) Which of the following led to Kemmons' success according to the passage?A.

Grandparents Peter and Chris stepped on the long journey after deciding to “do something a bit different”. They traversed (横穿) cities, deserts, mountains and everything in between across Europe, the Middle East and the East Asia. The married couple of 37 years enjoyed themselves with delicious local food and spent most nights inside a tiny tent put up wherever they could find shelter.Peter, 66, said the moment they finally had a look at the famous Great Wall after a year and a half of cycling 30 miles a day was “really exciting”. At the end of their journey, the special pair didn’t fly home but instead choose to book a cabin (舱) inside a 400m-long container ship. The final part was a three-week voyage from Singapore across the Indian Ocean and into the Mediterranean Sea before arriving at Southampton.“You never know what the day is going to bring. All you know is that you aregoing to get on your bike and cycle. Every day is an adventure and every day is new. Overall, the experience is absolutely unbelievable, ” Peter said.Peter and Chris initially set out to cycle from Britain in January 2017 but were forced home. They had cycled all the way to Hungary when Peter slipped on tiles and broke his leg. After seven months of recovery, the couple set out again in Britain. They finally arrived in China in November 2018.Both Peter and Chris agreed that the best part of the entiretrip was coming across the kindness of strangers along the way, many of whom invited the couple for food and drink. Chris, 64, said, “It was a wonderful experience, particularly wonderful because of the amazing people we met along the way.”4.What’s the couple’s purpose of taking the long journey?A.To try something new.B.To break the world record.C.

The kindness from other cyclists.CHundreds of thousands of lives were saved in 2017 alone because of the improvement of the environment, according to a new research. Fine particle pollution declined rapidly following the new rules on industrial emissions and the promotion of cleanfuels, according to the study, published on Monday in the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America. The study, which focused on the period from 2013-2017, was conducted by a group of Chinese researchers and scientists.PM2.5, as this kind of pollution is known, is so small that it can enter the bloodstream, potentially leading to cancer, stroke and heart attack in the long term. After rapid industrialization and weak regulations left the country with a reputation for smog and bad air quality, Chinese authorities started to take air pollution seriously in 2008.In 2013, Beijing had PM2.5 concentrations 40 times higher than levels recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO), and the governmentintroduced its toughest-ever clean air policies that year. The study found “signif icant declines” in PM2.5 levels across China from 2013-2017, with new standards for thermal power plants and industrial boilers, the replacement of old factories, and new emissions rules for vehicles. The authors say this “confirms the effectiveness of Chi na’s recent clean air actions.”These recent actions have seen Beijing fall out of the top 100 most-polluted cities in Asia in recent years, with the pollution levels 10% lower across Chinese cities between 2017 and 2018, according to a report by Greenpeace and AirVisual. Shanghai, the country’s largest city and financial capital, has also made environmental advances, such as adopting strict recycling regulations. Public pressure has been the driving force of pollution policy in China.Air pollution is a global issue, and India is now home to 22 of the 30 most polluted world cities, according to the Greenpeace and AirVisual report. In the US, a recent study said air pollutionwas linked to more than 107,000 deaths in 2011 and cost the country $866 billion.8. What saved many lives in China?A. China’s clean air policies.B. The increased particle pollution.C. The study by researchers.D. The reduction of the clean fuels.9. Why did PM2.5 cause many diseases?A. It was called smog.B. It made the air cleaner.C. It went into the blood.D. It had a bad reputation.10. When did Chinese government decide to treat the pollution?A. In 2008.B. In 2013.C. In 2017.D. In 2018.11. What did people in Shanghai do to protect the environment?A. They built the thermal power plants.B. They stopped using industrial boilers.C. They made Shanghai financial capital.D. They tried to recycle some rubbish.DIn the 1994 film Forrest Gump, there’s a famous saying, “Life is like a box of chocolates; you never know what you’re gonna get.” The surprise is part of the fun. Now blind box toys are bringing the magic of surprise to online shopping.A blind box toy is hidden inside uniform packaging(包装) butinvisible from the outside. You don’t know what will be inside, although the toys typically come from pop culture, ranging from movies to comics and cartoons.Blind boxes have caught on since they were first introduced from Japan to China in 2014. According to a 2019 Tmall report, the mini-series of Labubu blind box. designed by Hong Kong -born Kasing Lung, was named Champion of Unit Sales with 55,000 sold in just 9 seconds during the Singles Day shopping event. Most customers for blind boxes are young people aged 18 to 35.According to The Paper, blind box toys are popular in part because of their cute appearances. The typically cute cartoon figurines (小塑像) come in miniature (微型的) sizes, making them suitable for display almost anywhere.Even if blind boxes are not their top choice for decorations(装饰品), the mystery and uncertainty of the process also attracts people. It’s the main reason why people buy blind boxes one after another.“Fear of the unknown is always a part of the box-opening process,” said Miss Cao, 24, who lives and works in Shenyang. Speaking to Sina News, she said: “Until you open all the boxes, you cannot know what it is inside.”Opening a blind box is a delightful little surprise for our mundane daily lives, something small but fun to wait for each day, week or month.

My mother and sister had gone through Grandma’s belongings after her memorial service and decided on the sewing machine for me. I wasn’t sure if I was the right person for it, though. I hadn’t sewn since taking a class in high school. This would take some experimenting.I opened the built-in drawer to find Grandma’s old pieces of thread. I held her tomato-shaped pincushion(针垫)and thought of all the memories wrapped up in this machine. Grandma had become a tailoress(女裁缝) out of necessity. With four small children to clothes, he’d quickly learned how to sew almost everything they needed. For over 30 years, Grandma kept up with her sewing. She made matching Easter dresses for my sister and me and costumes for our school festivals. She was always in search of a new project, whether it was teaching our neighbors or sewing dresses for the homeless. But for the last several years of her life, dementia(痴呆) had left a shy and silent woman in place of the strong opinionated loving grandmother I’d known.To honor Grandma’s memory, I wanted a project to help people the way she had. With the stay-at-home order in place because of Covid-19, I certainly had the time. So I dug out Grandma’s machine to sew masks, and read up on how to sew. I turned on my computer to research how to get the machine going again. After hours of digging through old black-and-white handbooks and sewing lessons online, I operated the machine on more time. I held my breath and pressed down on the pedal. Hurrah! It worked! In no time, my fingers were flying, steadily moving material under the very cooperative needle. When I sewed enough masks for my family, I kept going. I delivered nearly 500 masks to a hard-hit hospital in the area. Quite a big job for an old sewing machine.A staff member met me outside to receive the donation. “Thank you,” she said, not knowing that any thanks for my efforts belonged to Grandma, who provided the inspiration.1. Why did the author doubt herself about accepting the sewing machine?A.She was not fond of it.B.She didn’t usually sew much.C.She had no interest in sewing.D.She hoped to donate it to charities.2. What can be inferred about the author’s grandma?A.She dreamed of being a tailorB.She kept sewing as a hobby.C.She was ready to help others.D.She had always been optimistic.3. What does the underlined phrase “read up on” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A.Studied a lot about.B.Thought of slowly.C.Noticed or observed.D.Lost one’s heart to.4. How to describe the author’s success with sewing machine?A.It is a long tiring process for her.B.She overcame many difficulties.C.She received a lot of help from others.D.It just took her a few hours to operate it skillfully.5. Which of the following would be best title for this text?A.I Have Donated Nearly 500 Masks.B.My Grandmother Inspired Me to Help Others.C.I Finally Learned to Use a Sewing Machine.D.Making Masks For Others Is Such a Pleasure.19. As the pace of life continues to increase, we are fast losing the art of relaxation. Once you are in the habit of rushing through life, being on the go from morning till night, it is hard to slow down. But relaxation is essential for a healthy mind and body.Stress is a natural part of everyday life and there is no way to avoid it. In fact, it is not the bad thing it is often supposed to be. A certain amount of stress is vital to provide motivation and give purpose to life. It is only when the stress gets out of control that it can lead to poor performance and ill health.The amount of stress a person can withstand depends very much on the individual. Some people are not afraid of stress, and such characters are obviously prime material for managerial responsibilities. Others lose heart at the first signs of unusual difficulties. When exposed to stress, in whatever form, we react both chemically and physically. In fact we make a choice between “fight” or “flight” and in more primitive days the choice made the difference between life or death. The crises we meet today are unlikely to be so extreme, but however little the stress is, it involves the same response. It is when such a reaction lasts long, through continued exposure to stress, that health becomes endangered. Such serious conditions as high blood pressure and heart disease have established links with stress. Since we cannot remove stress from our lives (it would be unwise to do so even if we could), we need to find ways to deal with it.1. People are finding less and less time for relaxing themselves because_____.A.they do not know how to enjoy themselvesB.they do not believe that relaxation is important for healthC.they are travelling fast all the timeD.they are becoming busier with their work2. According to the writer, the most important character for a good manager is his ________.A.not fearing stress B.knowing the art of relaxationC.high sense of responsibility D.having control over performance3. Which of the following statements is true?A.We can find some ways to avoid stress.B.Stress is always harmful to people.C.It is easy to change the habit of keeping oneself busy with work.D.Different people can withstand different amounts of stress.4. In Paragraph 3, “such a reaction” refers back to_______.A.“making a choice between ‘flight’ or ‘fight’”B.“reaction to stress both chemically and physically”C.“responding to crises quickly”D.“losing heart at the signs of difficulties”5. In the last sentence of the passage, “do so” refers to ______.A.“expose ourselves to stress”B.“find ways to deal with stress”C.“remove stress from our lives”D.“established links between diseases and stress”20. Japan is getting tough with recycling— and not in the paper and plastic kind of way. Recently, the country requires that all electronic goods—TVs, VCRs, stereos, and more be recycled. But recycling will not be left toconsumers, instead, the devices will be sent to the original manufacturer for proper disposal.The new law poses a few challenges to manufacturers who are now rushing to set up collection networks and perfecting techniques to take apart and recycle older products. With an eye toward the future, they are also integratingeasily recycled materials into new products. Plastics, a major component of most electronic products, pose a particular obstacle because their quality becomes worse and worse with age, losing strength and flexibility even if reprocessed.NEC Corp. overcomes this problem by creating a plastics sandwich, in which the filling is 100 percent recycled plastic and the outer layers a mixture of 14 percent recycled material. The resulting plastic has sufficient strength andtoughness for use as a case for desktop PCs. The company. in cooperation with plastic maker Sumitomo Dow, has also developed a new plastic, which engineers claim keeps its mechanical properties through repeated recycling. NECuses the plastic, which is also flame-retardant(阻燃的)in battery cases for notebook PCs.Meanwhile, Matsushita Electric, maker of the Panasonic brand, is avoiding plastic in favor of magnesium(镁). Magnesium, says the company, is ideal for recycling because it retains its original strength through repeatedreprocessing. Matsushita has developed molding techniques to form magnesium into the case for a 21-inch TV.Unfortunately, the magnesium case and energy-saving features make the TV about twice as expensive as an ordinary model. The company hopes, however, that increased use of magnesium will eventually bring prices down.1. According to the present regulations of Japan, the recycling of paper and plastic will be the responsibility of _______.A.the government B.the manufacturers C.the consumers D.the sellers2. Which of the following is NOT the character of plastics?A.Most electronic products contain plastics.B.It keeps its original strength through reprocessing.C.Recycled plastics can be integrated into new products.D.Plastics will lose flexibility after a certain period of time.3. According to the passage, the term “plastic sandwich” refers to _______.A.a kind of sandwich-shaped toy made of plasticsB.a kind of plastics with different integration in each layerC.a kind of plastics with maximum strength and flexibilityD.a kind of plastics made of 100% recycled materials4. It can be inferred from the passage that _______.A.selling plastics is the only business of NEC CorpB.magnesium is an ideal material for making notebook PCsC.21-inch TV with magnesium case isn’t very popular so farD.magnesium must be better than the plastics5. The author writes this passage in order to_______.A.inform B.direct C.predict D.persuade四、阅读表达21. 阅读短文,按照题目要求用英语回答问题。

The morning after the storm, though, was beautiful: blue skies, warm air and a calm, inviting sea touching the shore gently.My father realized it was a good day for fishing and invited my sister and me to go with him. I was only 14 and fishing had never been my thing, but I decided to go all the same. TAL#NBSP I'm so glad I did.On the road to the harbour we could see the terrible destruction on the coast, but the harbour itself was in fairly good shape. After all, it was protected by the arms of a bay that had only one tiny channel to the sea. As we got on board, we noticed two big humps(脊背)in the distance.On approaching them, we saw it was a mother whale with her baby. We couldn't believe it—there aren't any whales along the coast here. The storm must have driven them across the ocean into the bay, in which the still water was so badly polluted that nothing could survive.The little baby whale—actually as big as our boat—was obviously stuck and could not move. The mother dived under the water and came up suddenly, making big whirlpools(漩涡)and waves. "She's trying to help her baby, but on the wrong side, "my father said. At this point, my father moved our boat in a semicircle to the other side and, heading the boat towards the baby whale, pushed it gently. With our several gentle pushes the big hump turned over and disappeared under water. Then it swam up right beside its mum. They struggled in their desperate attempts to escape but missed the exit and started heading in the wrong direction. We hurried up to the whales and tried to lead them towards the bay channel. Slowly, they let us lead them, some-times rising from the water right beside us to breathe—and to give us a trusting look with those huge eyes. Once they hit their first part of clean water flowing straight from the sea, the mum gave us a wave with her tail and off they swam into the distance.In the excitement it had felt like only a few minutes, but we had been with those wonderful animals for almost an hour and a half. That was the simple and lasting beauty of the day, Nearly four decades later,I still look back fondly to that golden day at sea.(1) The author says "I'm so glad I did." (in Para. 2) because.A. he witnessed the whole process of fishingB. he enjoyed the beauty of the calm seaC. he experienced the rescue of the whalesD. he spent the weekend with his family(2) The harbour survived the storm owing to.A. the shape of the harbourB. the arms of the bayC. the still water in the channelD. the long coast line(3) The mother whale failed to help her baby because.A. she had stayed in the polluted water for too longB. the whirl pools she had made were not big enoughC. she had no other whales around to turn to for helpD. the waves pushed her baby in the wrong direction(4) What is the theme of the story?A. Saving lives brings people a sense of happinessB. Fishing provides excitement for childrenC. It's necessary to live in harmony with animalsD. It's vital to protect the environment13、【来源】 2010年高考真题湖北卷第13题2017~2018学年广东广州海珠区广州市第六中学高三下学期期中(D篇)第32~35题8分2017~2018学年广东广州越秀区广州市第十六中学高一上学期期中第4题2016~2017学年广东广州越秀区广州市第十六中学高一上学期期中第32~35题8分For many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner. Like a border conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about boundaries: Where is the line between what I control and what you do?Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict. In part, this is because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for starting it. From the parents' point of view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents' complete unreasonableness. And of course, TAL#NBSP the teens see it in exactly the same way, except oppositely.Both feel trapped.In this article, I'll describe three no-win situations that commonly arise between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap. The first no-win situation is quarrels over unimportant things. Examples include the color of the teen's hair, the cleanliness of the bedroom, the preferred style of clothing, the child's failure to eat a good breakfast before school, or his tendency to sleep until noon on the weekends. Second, blaming. The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong. Third, needing to be right, It doesn't matter what the topic is—politics. The laws of physics, or the proper way to break an egg—the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong. for both wish to be considered an authority—someone who actually knows something — and therefore to command respect. Unfortunately, as long as long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other, they'll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress.(1) Why does the author compare the parent-teen war to a border conflict?A. Both can continue for generations.B. Both are about where to draw the lineC. Neither has any clear winnerD. Neither can be put to an end(2) What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean?A. The teens blame their parents for starting the conflict.B. The teens agree with their parents on the cause of the conflictC. The teens cause their parents of misleading themD. The teens tend to have a full understanding of their parents(3) Parents and teens want to be right because they want to.A. give orders to the otherB. know more than the otherC. gain respect from the otherD. get the other to behave properly(4) What will the author most probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?A. Causes for the parent –teen conflictsB. Examples of the parent –teen war.C. Solutions for the parent –teen problemsD. Future of the parent-teen relationship14、【来源】 2010年高考真题湖北卷(C篇)第59~62题8分(每题2分)2010年高考真题湖北卷(C篇)第14题2017~2018学年北京西城区北京师范大学附属中学高二下学期期中第64~67题8分They wear the latest fashions with the most up-to-date accessories (配饰). Yet these are girls in their teens or twenties but women in their sixties and seventies. A generation which would once only wear old-fashioned clothes is now favoring the same high street looks worn by those half their age.Professor Julia Twigg, a social policy expert, said, "Women over 75 are now shopping for clothes more frequently than they did when they were young in the 1960s. In the 1960s buying a coat for a woman was a serious matter. It was an expensive item that they would purchase only every three or four years —now you can pick one up at the supermarket whenever you wish to. Fashion is a lot cheaper and people get tired of things more quickly. "Professor Twigg analyzed family expending(支出)data and found that while the percentage of spending on clothes and shoes by women had stayed around the same—and 5 or 6 per cent of spending—the amount of clothes bought had risen sharply.The professor said, "Clothes are now 70 per cent cheaper than they were in the 1960s because of the huge expansion of production in the Far East. In the 1960s Leeds was the heart of the British fashion industry and that was where most of the clothes came from, but now almost all of our clothes are sourced elsewhere. Everyone is buying more clothes but in general we are not spending more money on them. "Fashion designer Angela Barnard, who runs her own fashion business in London, said older women were much more affected by celebrity(名流) style than in previous years.She said, "When people see stars such as Judi Dench and Helen Mirren looking attractive and fashionable in their sixties, they want to follow them. Older women are much more aware of celebrities. There's also the boom in TV programmes showing people how they can change their look, and many of my older customers do yoga to stay in shape well in their fifties.

The author, W. H. Armstrong, starts with the basics: reading and writing. In his opinion, reading doesn't just mean recognizing each word on the page; it means taking in the information, digesting it and incorporating it into oneself just as one digests a sandwich and makes it a part of him. The goal is to bring the information back to life, not just to treat it as dead facts on paper from dead trees. Reading and writing cannot be completely separated from each other; in fact, the aim of reading is to express the information you have got from the text. I've seen it again and again:some-one who can't express an idea after reading a text is just as ineffective as someone who hasn't read it at all.Only a third of the book remains after that discussion, which Armstrong devotes to specific tips for studying languages, math, science and history. He generally handles these topics thoroughly(透彻地)and equally, except for some weakness in the science and math sections and a bit too much passion(激情) regarding history to his students, that was a hundred times more than my history teachers ever got across. To my disappointment, in this part of the book he ignores the arts. As a matter of fact, they demand all the concentration and study that math and science do, though the study differs slightly in kind. Although it's commonly believed that the arts can only be naturally acquired, actually, learning the arts is no more natural than learning French or mathematics.My other comment is that the text aged.The first edition apparently dates to the 1960s—none of the references(参考文献)seem newer than the late 1950s. As a result, the discussion misses the entire computer age.These are small points, though, and don't affect the main discussion. I recommend it to any student and any teacher, including the self-taught student.(1) According to Armstrong, the goal of reading is to.A. gain knowledge and expand one's viewB. understand the meaning between the linesC. experts ideas based on what one has readD. gets information and keeps it alive in memory(2) The author of the passage insists that learning the arts.A. requires great effortsB. demands real passionC. is less natural than learning mathsD. is as natural as learning a language(3) What is a shortcoming of Armstrong's work according to the author?A. Some ideas are slightly contradictory.B. There is too much discussion on studying science.C. The style is too serious.D. It lacks new information.(4) This passage can be classified as.A. an advertisementB. a book reviewC. a feature storyD. a news report16、【来源】 2010年高考真题湖北卷E篇第67~70题8分(每题2分)2010年高考真题湖北卷第16题EHave you winterized your horse yet? Even though global warming may have made our climate more mild, many animals are still hibernating(冬眠). It’s too bad that humans can’t hibernate. In fact,as a species, we almost did.Apparently, at times in the past, peasants in France liked a semi-state of human hibernation. So writes Graham Robb, a British scholar who has studied the sleeping habits of the French peasants. As soon as the weather turned cold people all over France shut themselves away and practiced the forgotten art of doing nothing at all for months on end.In line with this, Jeff Warren, a producerat CBC Radio’s The Current, tells us that the way we sleep has changed fundamentally since the invention of artificial(人造的) lighting and the electric bulb.When historians began studying texts of the Middle Ages, they noticed something referred to as “first sleep”, which was not clarified, though. Now scientists are telling us our ancestors most likely slept in separate periods. The business of eight hours’ uninterrupted sleep is a modern invention.In the past, without the artificial light of the city to bathe in, humans went to sleep when it became dark and then woke themselves around midnight. The late night period was known as “The Watch”It was when people actually kept watch against wild animals, although many of them simply moved around or visited family and neighbours.According to some sleep researchers,a short period of insomnia(失眠) at midnight is not a disorder. It is normal. Humans can experience another state of consciousness around their sleeping, which occurs in the brief period before we fall asleep or wake ourselves in the morning. This period can be an extraordinarily creative time for some people. The impressive inventor,Thomas Edison, used this state to hit upon many of his new ideas.Playing with your sleep rhythms can be adventurous, as anxiety may set in. Medical science doesn’t help much in this case. It offers us medicines for a full night’s continuous sleep, which sounds natural;however, according to Warren’s theory,it is really the opposite of what we need.(1) The example of the French peasants shows the fact that________.A. people might become lazy as a result of too much sleepB. there were signs of hibernation inhuman sleeping habitsC. people tended to sleep more peacefully in cold weatherD. winter was a season for people to sleep for months on end(2) The late night was called “The Watch” because it was a time for people______.A. to set traps to catch animalsB. to wake up their family and neighboursC. to remind others of the timeD. to guard against possible dangers(3) What does the author advise people to do?A. Sleep in the way animals do.B. Consult a doctor if they can’t sleep.C. Follow their natural sleep rhythm.D. Keep to the eight-hour sleep pattern.(4) What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?A. To give a prescription for insomnia.B. To urge people to sleep less.C. To analyze the sleep pattern of modern people.D. To throw new light on human sleep.四、完成句子17、【来源】 2010年高考真题湖北卷第17题阅读下列各小题,根据括号内的汉语提示,用句末括号内的英语单词完成句子,并将答案写在答题卡上的相应题号后。

For instance, Steve taught meto face the results of my behavior. Once when I returned in tears from a Saturday baseball game, it was Steve who took the time to ask me what happened. When I explained that my baseball had soared through Mrs. Holt’s basement window, breaking the glass with a crash, Steve encouraged me to confess (认罪) to her. After all, I should have been playing in the park down Fifth Street and not in the path between buildings. Although my knees knocked as I explained to Mrs. Holt, I offered to pay for the window from my pocket money if she would return my ball. I also learned from Steve that personal property is a sacred (神圣的) thing. After I found a shiny silver pen in my fifth-grade classroom, I wanted to keep it, but Steve explained that it might be important to someone else in spite of the fact that it had little value. He reminded me of how much I’d hate to lose to someone else the small dog my father carved from a piece of cheap wood. I returned the pen to my teacher, Mrs. Davids, and still remembered the smell of her perfume as she patted me on my shoulder. Yet of all the instructions Steve gave me, his respect for life is the most vivid in my mind. When I was twelve I killed an old brown sparrow in the yard with a BB gun. Excited with my accuracy, I screamed to Steve to come from the house to take a look. I shall never forget the way he stood for a long moment and stared at the bird on the ground. Then in a dead, quiet voice, he asked, “Did it hurt you first, Mark?” I didn’t know what to answer. He continued with his eyes firm, “The only time you should even think of hurting a living thing is if it hurts you first. And then you think a long, long time.” I really felt terrible then, but that moment stands out as the most important lesson my brother taught me.41.What is the main subject of the passage?A.The relationship between Mark and Steve.B.The important lesson Mark learned in schoolC.Steve’s important role in Mark’s growing process.D.Mark and Steve’s respect for living things.42.It can be inferred from the passage that when Mark confessed to Mrs. Holt, ________.A.he felt surprised B.he was light-heartedC.he felt frightened D.he knelt before her43.In the story about the pen, which of the following lessons did Steve teach his brother?A.Respect for personal property.B.Respect for life.C.Sympathy for people with problems.D.The value of honesty.44.According to the writer, which was the most important lesson Steve taught his young brother?A.Respect for living things.B.Responsibility for one’s actions.C.The value of the honesty.D.Care for the property of others.45.Which of the follow is true according to the passage?A.Mark was still a boy when he wrote this passage.B.Mark lost the small dog his father gave him.C.When a living thing hurts you, you should kill it.D.Even if a living thing hurts you, you should not kill it without hesitation (犹豫).Biologists from the John Innes Centre in England discovered that plants have a biological process which divides their amount of stored energy by the length of the night. This solves the problem of how to portion out(分配)energy reserves during the night so that the plant can keep growing, yet not risk burning off all its stored energy.While the sun shines, plants perform photosynthesis(光合作用). In this process, the plants change sunlight, water and carbon dioxide into stored energy in the form of long chains of sugar, called starch(淀粉). At night, the plants burn this stored starch to fuel continued growth.“The calculations are precise so that plants prevent starvation but also make the most efficient use of their food,” said study co-author Alison Smith. “If the starch store is used too fast, plants will starve and stop growing during the night. If the store is used too slowly, some of it will be wasted.”The scientists studied the plant Arabidopsis, which is regarded as a model plant for experiments. To give the plants some math tests, the biologists let night arrive unexpectedly early or late for them.During one of the exams, they shut off the lights early on them that had been grown with twelve-hour days and nights. Putting them into darkness after only an eight-hour day means they didn’t have time to store as much starch as usual. And this forced the plants to adjust their normal nightly rhythm.Amazingly, even after this day length trick, the plants did very well in their exams and ended up with just five percent of starch left over at the end of the night. They had neither starved, nor stored starch that could have been used to fuel more growth.The authors suggested that similar biological calculators may explain how a migratory bird, the little stint, can make a five-thousand-kilometer journey to their summer habitat in the Arctic and arrive with enough fat reserves to survive only approximately half a day more, on average.The results of the study were published in e Life.46.According to the passage, plants _________.A.use little energy during the dayB.usually stop growing at nightC.waste a lot of energy at nightD.store starch during the day47.What did the scientists do when studying Arabidopsis?A.They changed the plant’s light conditions.B.They provided the plant with more starch.C.They tried to keep the plant’s natural rhythm.D.They attached a biological calculator to the plant.48.When morning arrived, the experimental plants ________.A.nearly died of lack of foodB.used most of their stored energyC.began to regulate their food storeD.stored enough starch for the next day49.What can we learn about the little stint?A.They may have a system to control energy consumption.B.They often die during their long and difficult journey.C.They leave the Arctic in summer every year.D.They are unable to calculate the distances.50.The passage mainly tells us _________.A.plants feel hungrier day by dayB.plants are good at storing energyC.plants do math to survive the nightD.plants use starch to fuel their growthHow do consumers access, buy and use their favorite products and services? The answer to the seemingly simple question is changing. Traditionally, people often see ownership as the most desirable way to have access to products. However, an increasing number of consumers are paying to temporarily access or share products and services rather than buy or own them Customer behavior towards many goods and services changes from ownership to sharing. This transformation of people’s consumption, habits has made sharing economy grow and it seems that some individuals and companies have already benefited from this trend.Growth in sharing systems bas particularly been fueled by the Internet with the rise of social media systems. Anyone can be part of the sharing economy. It is reported that of the 44 percent of U.S. adults who are familiar with the sharing economy, 86 percent say it makes life more affordable, 83 percent say it makes life more convenient and efficient, and 78 percent say it builds a stronger community. The central idea of group consumption is simple: Obtain value which remains in goods or services that are not entirely used by their owners.A recent survey from Pricewaterhouse Coopers, the largest professional service firm in the world, shows this so-called “sharing economy” is growing faster than ever. Although we are not sure about the current size of this market, by 2025, according to Pricewaterhouse Coopers, the sharing economy could represent $335 billion in profit worldwide. Nowadays, well-known examples of successful corporations built on group consumption systems include Airbnb, a San Francisco-based online accommodations marketplace, and Zipcar, a car sharing brand that is now part of the vehicle rental service company.The speed of its growth suggests that the sharing economy might represent a serious threat to established industries, due to fewer purchases in conventional markets. For consumers, it seems to bold the advantage to unite cost reduction, benefit expansion, convenience and environmental consciousness in one type of consumption. Companies therefore should understand the new situation and manage their operating system in order to adapt to current and future business models to provide new sources of profits within this growing area of the sharing economy.51.How does the sharing economy work?A.Exchanging possessions of products online.B.Sharing something with the owners.C.Selling underused items to make money.D.Paying for sharing products or services owned by others.52.Which of the following is NOT a reason for the growth of sharing economy?A.The change of people’s consumption habits.B.People’s need to reduce life expenses.C.The decline of traditional business.D.The easier access to the Internet.53.According to Pricewaterhouse Coopers, we learn that________.A.44 percent of U.S. adults think sharing economy makes life easierB.sharing economy can have a promising futureC.sharing economy is expanding too fast to threaten other businessD.group consumption systems can be successful if run by large companies54.In the last paragraph, the writer mainly wants to say that________.A.traditional business should find different sources of profitsB.sharing economy has many advantages over conventional industryC.the growth of sharing economy has led to the decrease of purchasesD.traditional business should try to adapt to sharing economy55.Which can be the best title of the passage?A.The Rise of Sharing EconomyB.Sharing Makes Life BetterC.Advantages of Sharing EconomyD.Sharing Economy or Conventional Business阅读短文,按照题目要求用英语回答问题。

" thought Lusya Mae Engen, a student in Yasmin's class.But the kids soon learned what their teacher meant."We're trying to get people to talk with the trees through technology, " said Lusya.First, the students picked their own trees. Then, each student had to learn all about his or her tree, like how tall it was, how the tree's leaves felt and looked, and during what season it flowered. To get all the information, they used the Internet and some math.Next, the students wrote what they had learned about their trees and they recorded their own voices talking as if they were their trees, telling people all about who they were. That was the technology part."It was really cool to connect technology with nature, " said Azur Walla, another student in the class.The kids named their trees things like Dog 'N' Woods, Harlo Tree or Freddy. They also added their own creative voices to the project, and asked people looking at the trees to sing a song in their shade or give the trees a hug."My name is Charlotte. I was given this name by my friend Brooke. She is really nice and tries to visit me every day. What is your name? " Then "Charlotte" tells the listener all about her leaves, and how big she is. She ends by saying: "I hope you come back to visit me because of course I can't come to you."The project took a whole year to complete. The kids met about once a week to work on it. Now visitors can visit the Lowell school grounds during off﹣school hours and take the tree tour with their cellphones by calling a phone number that is on a sign next to 22 trees.(1)How did Lusya feel when she heard what he teacher said?________A Disappointed.B Surprised.C Worried.D Excited..(2)According to the text, Charlotte is________.A the tree Brooke pickedB a visitor to Lowell SchoolC the organizer of the projectD Brooke's classmate and friend.(3)To carry out the project, the students have to________.A become very creativeB improve their math skillsC know a lot about new technologyD be quite familiar with their trees.(4)We can infer from the passage that________.A Lowell School has 22 trees in totalB Yasmin Eisenhauer is a crazy teacherC the project will last for a couple of yearsD the students were interested in the project.(5)The passage is mainly about________.A the talking treesB the clever studentsC the latest technologyD an experienced teacher.19. Studying music in high school is good for young people. Unfortunately, students do not think of music studies as a useful subject in high schools. They always learn other subjects or sleep in music classes. However, educators have seen the great difference which studying music has made in the minds and lives of their students.Some studies find that children who study music have better grades. According to Robert A Cutietta and Harvey Mercadoocasio, authors of "Raising Musical Kids: A Guide for Parents", "Students who study music in high school, as a group, have higher scores than those not in bands."Studying music may not immediately lead to higher grades. It does, however, make students gain skills that can lead to success in tests.Through listening to music, one can enjoy the joy which music may bring into his life. Performing as a musician increases this joy, while developing self﹣confidence. According to Cutietta and Mercadocasio, "Being involved in music in a meaningful (and knowledgeable) way will add greatly to the quality of your child's life. It increases brain power along the way."Studying music as a high school student allows teenagers to develop many healthy and productive habits that will carry over into their adult lives, giving them a push towards a successful life. In addition to these habits, studying music really changes the brain in some way, as well."Kids who receive music training often make great progress in math studies." According to Newsweek. It quotes psychologist Martin Gardiner: "they just ________ in math. This can't be explained by attention alone. There is something specific between music and math."(1)As for high school students, the author holds that________.A they understand music studies in high schoolB they should learn other subjects instead of musicC they should take music studies seriouslyD they can choose to study music as they like.(2)Studying music in high school________.A immediately leads to high gradesB helps students improve in someskills C changes students' lives in high school D provides more joy than listening to music.(3)According to Para.4, listening to music can________.A bring one some joyB develop self﹣confidenceC improve parents' lifequality D increase adults' brain power.(4)Why is studying music good for young people's future?________A Because it lets young people get good grades.B Because it improves young people's life quality.C Because it makes young people more confident.D Because it makes young people develop good habits..(5)What do the underlined words "shoot ahead" in the last paragraph mean?________A Practice a lot.B Show interest.C Move quickly.D Improve greatly.第一节:阅读表达(满分10分)阅读短文,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题.20. Eating is the best when it's a social occasion. Think of the meal a family enjoys in the evening when everyone's together after work or school, or the big get﹣togethers over food at Spring Festival. But now, in the age of the internet and social media, anyone with internet connection can enjoy a social eating event.Mukbang ﹣ a South Korean phrase meaning "eating broadcast" ﹣ is an unusual food craze that's popular across the country. This is a meal where only one person gets to eat while viewers watch live stream of hosts ________ large quantities of food. They leave commentson the dishes the host is enjoying, and the host responds to them live.So why have people taken to this unusual new food trend? Jeff Yang, an Asian﹣American cultural critic, thinks it's down to "the loneliness of unmarried or uncoupled South Koreans". He believes that eating on your own can be hard in the country like South Korea,where social eating is such a long tradition. However, Mukbang gives people the feeling that they are part of something larger, it seems.Millions of people have trouble with food. Either they eat too much of it, or toolittle. Some say that the popularity of Mukbang helps people with these disorders. Those who always eat too much and put on weight can watch Mukbang streams to satisfy their appetite. And those who don't eat enough can build their appetite by watching delicious food being eaten.Even though Mukbang is a South Korean phenomenon, it's also taken off in the US. But unlike South Koreans who sit down to enjoy noodles and kimchi(泡菜), Americans enjoy their own native dishes. This means that viewers of US Mukbang streamers will see local eating hamburgers, fries and ice cream.(1)What does the underlined word "devouring" mean?(1 word)________(2)Why is Mukbang becoming popular in South Korea?(no more than 10 words)________(3)What is the article mainly about?(no more than 10 words)________(4)What is the specific trouble millions of people face in South Korea in the passage?(no more than 10 words)________(5)What do you think of Mukbang? Put it in your own words.(no more than 20 words)________第二节:书面表达(满分20分).21. 假如你是新华中学的李津,请根据下面提供的信息,给你的澳大利亚的笔友Jack写一封电子邮件,介绍你近期参加学校国画社(Chinese painting club)活动的情况,并谈谈收获和感受.1.活动:(听有关国画的讲座;参观展览;练习国画……)2.收获和感受(……)注意:(1)字数不少于100词;(2)邮件的开头和结尾已给出,不计入总词数;(3)适当增加细节,以使行文连贯.Dear Jack,How's everything going?I'm very excited to tell you that_____Best regards.Yours,Li Jin2018-2019学年天津市部分区联考高二(上)期末英语试卷答案1.

When I signed up for computer programming, I expected to learn about coding (编程)). However, what I didn’t expec t was that I would also learn how to build strong friendships.Just before I went there, I didn’t know what to expect in the school, feeling quite at a loss. A sense of uncertainty about my future was flooding over me. On the first day, the students awkwardly moved around at the opening ceremonies. Although it was embarrassing to admit, I hadn’t been able to succeed in my friendship in the past because I was too focused on myself. This time, I got rid of the desire to share personal stories and instead was eager to ask others about themselves.After sunset on the second night, I heard three girls trying to recall theschedule for an upcoming museum trip. After effective communication, I knew they were Lucy, Megan and Avery. Lucy and Avery were in environmental science, and Megan was studying mathematics.We had a lot in common among us four, such as our love for movies, which strengthened our friendships. Meanwhile, we were able to introduce each other to new activities. Lucy introduced us to anime(日本动漫). Enthusiastically, Megan encouraged us to play tennis. Avery and I kept the other two motivated to work out at the gym. The fact that none of us was particularly skilled with equipment resulted in shared laughter almost every day.After four weeks, I left with the ability to successfully code an educational computer game. More importantly, I also left with knowledge about the code of friendship--- the fact that I could make more friends in a month by showing interest in them than I could in a year by trying to attract others’ interest in me.41.The author went to the Governor’s School to originally learn how to ___________.A. code computer programsB. make friends with othersC. develop her personal hobby and interestD. share her personal stories with others42.The author had failed in her friendship mainly because _____________.A. she was embarrassed to stay with her friendsB. she cared little about othersC. she longed to know about othersD. she focused her attention on coding43.What can welearn from thepassage? 44.According to the author, the success code of friendship is _____________.A. getting others to be interested inherB. adding more laughter to others’ lifeC. keeping others motivated by storiesD. becoming more interested in others45.What does the author tell us in the passage?A. Her interest in the Governor’sSchoolB. A close relation with threeschoolmatesC. Her experience in the Governor’sSchoolD. Big changes in her studyCIn some islands north of Scotland, if head lice (头虱)left their host, he became sick and feverish. Therefore, sick people had lice put in their hair intentionally. There was a method in their madness: As soon as the lice had settled in again, the patient improved. The story explains the confusion of cause and effect. If the lice leave the sick host, it is because he has a fever and they simply get hot feet, and when the fever breaks, they return. Such false causally (假因果关系)misleads us every day.Consider the headline: “ Fact: Women Who Use Shampoo XYZ Eve ry Day Have Stronger Hair.” It says very little--- least of all, that the shampoo makes your hair stronger. It might simply be the other way round: women with strong hair tend to use Shampoo XYZ--- and perhaps that’s because it says “especially for thick h air” on the bottle.Another example: Scientists found that long periods in the hospital did harm to patients. But, clearly, patients who are dismissed immediately are healthier than those who must stay on for treatment.A. Avery studied mathematics in the schoolB. The four girls had a wonderful time at schoolC. Megan studied environmental scienceD. The four girls had nothing in commonRecently I read that students get better grades at school if their homes contain many books. This study was surely a shot in the arm for booksellers, but it was also false causality. This simple truth is that educated parents tend to value their children’s education more than uneducated ones do, and they often have more books at home. In short, a dust-covered copy War and Peace alone isn’t going to influence anyone’s grades; what counts is parents’ education levels, as well as their genes.There was also the supposed relationship between the birth rate and the numbers of stork(鹤))pairs in Germany. Both were in decline, and if you plot (描绘)them on a graph(曲线图), the two lines of development from 1965 to 1987 appeared almost the same. Does this mean the storks actually bring babies? Obviously not. This was purely accidental connection.In conclusion: Connection is not causality. Take a closer look at linked events: Sometimes what is presented as the cause turns out to be the effect, or just the other way round, and sometimes there is no link at all--- just like with storks and babies.46.According to the first paragraph, people in some islands north of Scotland _______.A. found a way to get rid of head liceB. used an effective method to keep fitC. made head lice a part of their lifeD. died due to infections with head lice47.Which is an example of false causality?A. Women with strong hair tend to use a certain shampooB. The birth rate and the stork population are connectedC. Longer periods in the hospital benefit patientsD. Lice can make a person sick and feverish48.The underlined phrase “ a shot in the arm” in Paragraph 4 means _________.A. painB. defeatC. guidanceD. encouragement49.According to the author, students get better grades probably because ___________.A. their home are full of booksB. they have read War and PeaceC. their educated parents valueD. their parents are successful education booksellers50.We can draw the conclusion from the passage that ____________.A. connection are pure accidentsB. cause and effect are interdependentC. connections are mostly cause andeffectD. linked events may turn out to beunrelatedDI read somewhere that we spend a full third of our lives waiting. But whereare we doing all of this waiting, and what does it mean to an impatient societylike ours? To understand the issue, let’s take a look at three types of “waits”.The very purest form of waiting is the Watched-Pot Wait. It is without doubtthe most annoying of all. Take filling up the kitchen sink (洗碗池) as an example. There is absolutely nothing you can do while this is going on but keep both eyes fixed on the sink until it’s full. During these waits, the brain slips away from the body and wanders about until the water runs over the edge of the counterand onto your socks. This kind of wait makes the waiter helpless and mindless.A cousin to the Watched-Pot Wait is the Forced Wait. This one requires abit of discipline. Properly preparing packaged noodle soup requires a Forced Wait. Directions are very specific. “Bring three cups of water to boil, add mix, simmer three minutes, remove from heat, let stand five minutes.” I havemy doubts that anyone has actually followed the procedures strictly. After all, Forced Waiting requires patience.Perhaps the most powerful type of waiting is the Lucky-Break Wait. This typeof wait is unusual in that it is for the most part voluntary. Unlike the Forced Wait, which is also voluntary, waiting for your lucky break does not necessarily mean that it will happen.Turning one’s life into a waiting game requires faith and hope, and is strictly for the optimists among us. On the surface it seems as ridiculous as following the directions on soup mixes, but the Lucky-Break Wait well serves those who are willing to do it. As long as one doesn’t come to rely on it, wishingfor a few good things to happen never hurts anybody.We certainly do spend a good deal of our time waiting. The next time you’re standing at the sink waiting for it to fill while cooking noodle sou p that you’ll have to eat until a large bag of cash falls out of the sky, don’t be desperate.You’re probably just as busy as the next guy.51. While doing a Watched-Pot Wait, we tend to ______.A. keep ourselves busyB. get absent-mindedC. grow anxiousD. stay focused52. What is the difference between the Forced Wait and the Watched-Pot Wait?A. The Forced Wait requires some self-control.B. The Forced Wait makes people passive.C. The Watched-Pot Wait needs directions.D. The Watched-Pot Wait engages body and brain.53. What can we learn about the Lucky-Break Wait?A. It is less voluntary than the Forced Wait.B. It doesn’t always bring the desired result.C. It is more fruitful than the Forced Wait.D. It doesn’t give people faith and hope.54. What does the author advise us to do the next time we are waiting?A. Take it seriously.B. Don’t rely on others.C. Do something else.D. Don’t lose heart.55. The author supports his view by________.A. exploring various causes of “waits”B. describing detailed processes of “waits”C. analyzing different categories of “waits”D. revealing frustrating consequences of “waits” 四、阅读表达:In the years of my growing up, Dad was strict with me. He made sure I made my bed and did my homework. He would call in advance to make sure there was no alcohol at the party. I got so angry with him for laying down the law. I would scream, “I hate you!” Dad would yell back, “Good! I don’t care!” Deep down I knew he did.One time at a party, I drank too much alcohol and got so sick. I said, “Call my dad.”Next thing, Dad was carrying me to the car. I woke up the next morning, thinking I would definitely be criticised. As expected, I got a roasting, but I now understand why I needed discipline.Dad was 29 when he got his big roles in films. I had an early start at the age of nine with a role in a 1990s TV series, but it wasn’t until I finished film studies that I pursued my career as an actress. Like those early days for Dad, I faced lots of rejections. Working in such a c ompetitive industry, I’ve sometimes thought, “I can’t do this anymore.”Once, after a trip to Hollywood, I returned to Australia so depressed and spent months in my bedroom painting, listening to Eckhart Tolle’s music and trying to find myself again. D ad sat me down and said, “Alice, I know it’s hard, but it’s all about persistence (坚持不懈).”Now I get to work with Dad a lot, which I love. We are both passionate about acting, which comes from us being so interested in people. If it weren’t for Dad, I wouldn’t be where I am today. He’s my biggest fan, and when you have that in your life you can go a long way.56. What rules did Alice’s father set for her when she was growing up? (no more than 15 words)___________________________________________________________________________57. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean?

The answer is adding, deleting, replacing,reordering, 2revising.Andrew Lloyd Webber's musical Phantom of the Opera underwent such a process.When Lloyd Webber began writing in 1984, he had in mind a funny, exciting production. However, when Phantom opened in London in 1986, the audience saw a moving psychological love story set to music.

A few dogs started barking at it. The elephant woke up in a terrible anger: it chased the dogs into the village where they ran for safety.That didn't stop the elephant. It destroyed a dozen houses and injured several people. The villagers were scared and angry. Then someone suggested calling Parbati, the elephant princess.Parbati Barua's father was a hunter of tigers and an elephant tamer.He taught Parbati to ride an elephant before she could even walk. He also taught her the dangerous art of the elephant round-up—how to catch wild elephants.Parbati hasn't always lived in the jungle. After a happy childhood hunting with her father, she was sent to boarding school in the city. But Parbati never got used to being there and many years later she went back to her old fife."Life in the city is too dull. Catching elephants is an adventure and the excitement lasts for days after the chase, " she says.But Parbati doesn't catch elephants just for fun. "My work, "she says, "is to rescue man from the elephants, and to keep the elephants safe from man." And this is exactly what Parbati has been doing for many years.Increasingly, the Indian elephant is angry: for many years, illegal hunters have attacked it and its home in the jungle has been reduced to small pieces of land.It is now fighting back. Whenever wild elephants enter a tea garden or a village, Parbati is called to guide the animals back to the jungle before they can kill.The work of an elephant tamer also involves love and devotion. A good elephant tamer will spend hours a day singing love songs to a newly captured elephant."Eventually they grow to love their tamers and never forget them. They are also more loyal than humans, " she said, as she climbed up one of her elephants and sat on the giant, happy animal. An elephant princess indeed!(1) For Parbati, catching elephants is mainly to.A. get long lasting excitementB. keep both man and elephants safeC. send them back to the jungleD. make the angry elephants tame(2) Before Parbati studied in a boarding school,.A. she spent her time hunting with her fatherB. she learned how to sing love songsC. she had already been called an elephant princessD. she was taught how to hunt tigers(3) Indian elephants are getting increasingly angry and they revenge because.A. they are caught and sent for heavy workB. illegal hunters capture them and kill themC. they are attacked and their land gets limitedD. dogs often bark at them and chase them(4) The passage starts with an elephant story in order to explain that in India.A. people easily fall victim to elephants'attacksB. the man-elephant relationship is getting worseC. elephant tamers are in short supplyD. dogs are as powerful as elephants20、【来源】 2010年高考真题上海卷(B篇)第69~71题The following card includes a brief summary and a short assessment of a research paper. It can provide a guide for further reading on the topic.Trevor, C. O., Lansford, B. and Black, J. W., 2004, "Employee turnover (人事变更) and job performance: monitoring the influences of salary growth and promotion", Journal of Armchair Psychology, vol. 113, no.1, pp. 56-64.In this article Trevor et al. review the influences of pay and job opportunities in respect of job performance, turnover rates and employees' job attitude.The authors use data gained through organizational surveys of blue-chip companies in Vancouver, Canada to try to identify the main cause of employee turnover and whether it is linked to salary growth. Their research focuses on assessing a range of pay structures such as pay for performance and organizational reward plans. The article is useful as Trevor et al. suggest that there are numerous reasons for employee turnover and a variety of differences in employees' job attitude and performance.The main limitation of the article is that the survey sample was restricted to mid-level management, thus the authors indicate that further, more extensive research needs to be undertaken to develop a more in-depth understanding of employee turnover and job performance. As this article was published in a professional journal, the findings can be considered reliable. It will be useful additional information for the research on pay structures.(1) The research paper published is primarily concerned with_____A. the way of preventing employee turnoverB. methods of improving employee performanceC. factors affecting employee turnover and performanceD. pay structures based on employee performance(2) As is mentioned in the card, the limitation of the research paper mainly lies in that______.A. the data analysis is hardly reliableB. the research sample is not wide enoughC. the findings are of no practical valueD. the research method is out-of-date(3) Who might be most interested in this piece of information?A. Job hunters.B. Employees in blue-chip companies.C. Mid-level managers.D.

But one more has just been added—a TAL#NBSP communications blackoutcaused by solar storms.After a period of calm within the Sun, scientists have detected the signs of a flesh cycle of sun spots that could peak in 2012, just in time for the arrival of the Olympic torch in London.Now scientists believe that this peak could result in vast solar explosions that could throw billions of tons of charged matter towards the Earth, causing strong solar storms that could jam the telecommunications satellites and interact links sending five Olympic broadcast from London."The Sun's activity has a strong influence on the Earth. The Olympics could be in the middle of the next solar maximum which could affect the functions of communications satellites, " said Professor Richard Harrison, head of space physics at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in Oxfordshire.At the peak of the cycle, violent outbursts called coronal mass ejections (日冕物质抛射) occur in the Sun's atmosphere, throwing out great quantities of electrically-charged matter." A coronal mass ejection can carry a billion tons of solar material into space at over a million kilometres per hour. Such events can expose astronauts to a deadly amount, can disable satellites, cause power failures on Earth and disturb communications, " Professor Harrison added. The risk is greatest during a solar maximum when there is the greatest number of sun spots.Next week in America, NASA is scheduled to launch a satellite for monitoring solar activity called the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), which will take images of the Sun that are 10 times clearer than the most advanced televisions available.The Rutherford Appleton Laboratory helped to make the high-tech cameras that will capture images of the solar flares(太阳耀斑) and explosions as they occur.Professor Richard Hold away, the lab's director, said that the SDO should be able to provide early warning of a solar flare or explosion big enough to affect satellite communications on Earth "If we have advance warning, we'll be able to reduce the damage. What you don't want is things switching off for a week with no idea of what's caused the problem, " he said.(1) The phrase "communications blackout" in paragraph 1 most probably refersto during the 2012 Olympics.A. the extinguishing of the Olympic torchB. the collapse of broadcasting systemsC. the transportation breakdown in LondonD. the destruction of weather satellites(2) What can be inferred about the solar activity described in the passage?A. The most fatal matter from the corona falls onto Earth.B. The solar storm peak occurs in the middle of each cycle.C. It takes several seconds for the charged matter to reach Earth.D. The number of sun spots declines after coronal mass ejections.(3) According to the passage, NASA will launch a satellite to.A. take images of the solar systemB. provide early warning of thunder stormsC. keep track of solar activitiesD. improve the communications on Earth(4) Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. Solar Storms: An Invisible KillerB. Solar Storms: Earth Environment in DangerC. Solar Storms: Threatening the Human RaceD.

Research by the American National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA, 1999) shows that around 2% of the population over age 12 were using drugs non-medically.2.NIDA views medications as a powerful force for good in the contemporary world. They reduce and remove pain for millions of people suffering from illness and disease. They make it possible for doctors to perform complicated surgery to save lives. Many people afflicted by serious medical conditions are able to control their symptoms and become active, contributing citizens. NIDA points out that most individuals who take these drugs use them in a responsible way.3.Nevertheless, overuse of drugs such as opioids, central nervous system(CNS) depressants and stimulants does lead to harmful reliance in some people and is therefore becoming a serious public health concern. Although this abuse affects many people worldwide, particular trends of concern to the medical profession in the US appear among older adults, teenagers and women.4.Though it may be a surprise to many, the misuse of medications may be the most common form of drug abuse among the elderly. Dr Kenneth Schrader of Duke University, North Carolina states that although the elderly represent about 13% of the US population, those aged 65 and over account for the consumption of one third of all drugs. People in this age group use medications roughly three times more than the general population and have poorer compliance with instruction for use. In another study of elderly patients admitted to treatment programs, 70% were women who had overused medicines.5.Unfortunately, this trend among women does not only affect those aged over.In general, among women and men who are using either an anti-anxiety drug or a sedative, women are twice as likely to become addicted. In addition, statistics compiled for 12-17 year olds show that teenage girls are more likely than teenage boys to begin overusing psychotherapeutic medication such as painkillers, tranquillizers, stimulants and sedatives.A. Drug overuse and its consequenceB. The problem of drug overuse in AmericaC. Benefits of medicine and its wise useD. Female drug overuse with reference to that of malesE.

Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.Phys ed (physical education) is making a comeback as a part of the school core curriculum(核心课程), but with a difference. While group sports are still part of the curriculum,the new way is to teach skills that are useful beyond gym class. Instead of learning how to climb a rope, children are taught to lift weights, balance their diets and build physical endurance. In this way,kids are given the tools and skills and experiences so they can lead a physically active life the rest of their life.Considering that 15 percent of American children 6 to 18 are overweight,supporters say more money and thought must be put into phys ed curriculum. In many cases, that may mean not just replacing the old gym-class model with fitness programs but also starting up phys ed programs because school boards often "put P.E.on the chopping block, cutting it entirely or decreasing its teachers or the days it is offered," says Alicia Moag-Stahlberg, the executive director of Action for Health Kids. The difference in phys ed programs is partly due to the lack of a national standard. "Physical education needs to be part of the core curriculum," she added.The wisdom of the new approach has some scientific support. Researchers at the University of Wisconsin have demonstrated how effective the fit-for-life model of gym class can be. They observed how 50 overweight children lost more weight when they cycled and skied cross-country than when they played sports. The researchers also found that teaching sports like football resulted in less overall movement,partly because reluctant students were able to sit on the bench.Another problem with simply teaching group sports in gym class is that only a tiny percentage of students continue playing them after graduating from high school. The new method teaches sells that translate to adulthood.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)(1) In the new P.E. program, children learn to lift weights, balance their diets and build physical endurance rather than ___________________.(2) As for P.E., some school boards either___________________.(3) What are the two problems with simply teaching groupsports?(4) What is the long-term benefit of the new P.E. program?七、翻译24、【来源】 2010年高考真题上海卷第85题Translate the following sentences into English, usingthe words given in the brackets.(1) 这本杂志花了我20多元。

Many are work-related; others are academic. You'll need to look beyond the course title because courses with almost the same name may differ enormously. For example, if you're interested in construction but wish to use your creative skills, you may be better suited to a building design management course than a building project management course. Styleof learningThink about the style of learning that best suits you. It's important to study a subject that you particularly enjoy, but if you want to follow a career in a different area, you may consider taking the subjects you want to learn and joining them into one degree. Many degree courses are made up of different subject modules which deal with particular areas of interest.Choosing where to studyWhere you study can be almost as important as what you study. One thing to consider is whether you want to live at home or move away. For some people, living at home offers the best of both worlds, but it may make sense to move if you want to study a particular course at a specific university or college. Many students value the experience of living on campus or in a different part of the country as an important part of university life.Finding out more about coursesOnce you've got a list of courses that appeal to you, it's worth looking at some other sources of information about them, like independent reports. These provide information on the numbers of students who finished the course, student satisfaction and more.Open daysOpen days usually take place in spring or autumn. Although you may have an idea about what a course is like, there's no substitute(替代)for attending a class yourself. If you can't come on the open days, you can sign up for a guided tour instead.(1) You need to look beyond the course title because courses with similar names may be.A. creativity-focusedB. work-relatedC. far differentD. quite similar(2) What are you advised to do if your interest disagrees with your future career?A. Add preferred subjects to your degree courses.B. Choose the subjects based on your interest.C. Earn different degrees.D. Give up your interest.(3) What do we learn about from Para. 4?A. Disadvantages of studying on campus.B. Reasons for choosing where to study.C. Importance of attending a nearby college.D. Problems of going to a faraway university.(4) Why is it recommended to check independent reports?A. To increase applicants' interest.B. To better understand a course.C. To figure out how to complete a course.D. To find out how different the courses are.(5) On the open days, would-be college students can.A. sign up for a particular courseB. take a guided tour on the campusC. see whether there is a substitute courseD. have a first-hand experience of a course18、【来源】 2018年3月高考真题天津卷(B篇)第41~45题12.5分2020~2021学年天津河西区高二上学期期中(A篇)第41~45题10分With a satisfied smile, Keisha finished the last sentence of her English essay about one of her heroes, Rosa Parks, an important figure in the Civil Rights Movement."Keisha, " her mother shouted from downstairs. "It's almost 4:15.""Don't worry. I won't be late." Keisha pulled down a storybook from her bookshelf, as she always read to the nursing home's residents. And on an impulse(一时心血来潮), she added her English notebook as well.As Keisha came running in the door, the manager told her, "We have a new resident this week, Mrs. Ruby Watson. She's still adjusting to her new surroundings. You'll find her in Room 28. And by the way, Keisha, good luck."Keisha walked down the hallway at a quick pace. As she entered Room 28, she met two sharp brown eyes staring at her doubtfully."I'm Keisha Jackson, a volunteer, " Keisha explained. "I come here to help pass the time with residents, or read to them, or, …" Keisha started stammering(结巴)as Mrs. Watson continued to stare at her."I didn't request anyone to keep me company, " Mrs. Watson interrupted. "I'm alone most of the time, and that's how I prefer it.""I brought along some funny stories, " Keisha said hesitantly."I'm not in the mood for funny stories, " Mrs. Watson replied angrily. "What else do you have? "Nervously, Keisha opened her notebook to her essay. She read the title aloud, "Rosa Parks: A Woman of Courage and Conviction(信念)." She glanced at Mrs. Watson to see how she might react, but to her surprise, Mrs. Watson's face relaxed and her eyes shone."Read to me about Rosa, " Mrs. Watson said.Keisha read how Rosa Parks' refusal to give up her seat to a white passenger on a bus in 1955 inspired the protest that became a turning point in the struggle for civil rights."I walked with Rosa Parks and Dr. Martin Luther King, " Mrs. Watson said with pride."That was the greatest moment of my life because…" She paused."Because… you were a woman of courage and conviction too."Sitting up straighter, Mrs. Watson said, "Yes, I was and I still am. Thank you for reminding me, Keisha. Next Thursday, I will tell you my story."(1) Why did Keisha take her English notebook along?A. Her mother asked her to take it.B. She would hand it in on her way.C. She might read her essay to someone.D. The manager wanted to read her essay.(2) Why did the manager wish Keisha good luck before she visited Mrs. Watson?A. Mrs. Watson could be difficult.B. Mrs. Watson was in poor health.C. Keisha was feeling nervous.D. Keisha was a shy person.(3) Mrs. Watson's eyes(Para. 10)suggested that she was.A. amusedB. puzzledC. annoyedD. interested(4) What effect did Keisha's essay have on Mrs. Watson?A. It aroused her curiosity in volunteer work.B. It built up her expectation for more visitors.C. It awoke her pride in her struggle for civil rights.D.

You know the landmarks—a big red house or a bus-stop sign. But what if you were swimming in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean? Could you still find your way home? A loggerhead turtle(海龟)could.According to Dr. Ken Lohmann, loggerheads have a magnetic(磁力的)sense based on Earth's magnetic field. It helps them locate the best spots for finding food and their home beaches.Scientists already know that several other animals, such as whales and honeybees, can detect(探测到)magnetic fields. The difference between them and loggerheads, however, is the way they learn to use their magnetic sense. Young whales and honeybees can learn from adults. Loggerheads are abandoned as eggs.As newborn loggerheads have no adults to learn from, what helps them figure out how to use their magnetic sense? Lohmann thinks one of the cues was light on the sea.Baby loggerheads hatch only at night. However, a small amount of light reflects off the ocean. The light makes that region brighter. Heading toward the light helps them get quickly out to sea, where they can find food. Lohmann tested whether newborn loggerheads use this light source to set their magnetic "compasses" (罗盘). He and his team put some newborns in a water tank and recorded which way they swam. Around the tank, the scientists created a magnetic field that matched the Earth's. They set a weak light to the east of the magnetic field. Then they let the newborns go.At first, the newborns swam toward the light. After the scientists turned off the light, the turtles that had seen the light in the east always swam toward east. When the researchers reversed(颠倒)the magnetic field, these turtles turned around and swam toward the new "east" .This and the follow-up experiments all showed that loggerheads use light from the outside world to set their magnetic "compasses" and then remember the "correct" direction.If a turtle hatches on a brightly-lit beach, that would damage its magnetic sense forever and make survival hard for the turtle.Lohmann's work has led others to protect the habitat of this endangered species. Yet many questions about these creatures remain unanswered, and researchers have a lot to study.(1) Loggerheads and whales differ in the way they.A. bring up their youngB. recognize landmarksC. detect magnetic fieldsD. learn to find directions(2) What is needed for newborn loggerheads to set their magnetic sense?A. Weak light reflected off the ocean.B. Help from adult loggerheads.C. Bright sunlight from the sky.D. Food in warmer waters.(3) In the experiment, after the newborns' magnetic sense was set, their moving direction was determined by.A. the lightB. the magnetic fieldC. other unknown factorsD. the light and the magnetic field(4) What is the significance of Lohmann's research work?A.

The more people getting involved in solving it, the more knowledge there is to work on it. Unfortunately, research showsthat the traditional brainstorming methods fail to achieve that goal. When groups get together to exchange ideas, they actually come up with fewer ideas overall than if they each had worked alone.To fix this problem, you should consider the two stages of group problem-solving: divergence(分散)and convergence(集中). Divergence happens when the group considers as many different potential solutions as possible. Convergence happens when the various proposed solutions are evaluated and reduced to a smaller set of candidate solutions to the current problem.The essential principle of group creativity is that individuals working alone diverge, whereas group members working together converge. In groups, once a member states a potential solution, that makes others think about the problem similarly. That is why groups working together diverge less than individuals working alone.Therefore, be aware of when to diverge and when to converge. For example, early in the problem-solving process, have group members work alone to write down statements describing the problem. Then get them back to discuss their descriptions. The group discussion will lead everyone to accept one or a small number of these statements to work on—this is healthy convergence.When starting to generate solutions, you again want divergence. Have people work alone to start. Then collect people's initial ideas and send them around to others and allow the divergence to continue as everyone individually builds on the ideas of other members.Finally, let the group discuss the resulting ideas. This discussion will gradually lead the group to converge on a small number of candidate solutions.This simple method works effectively, because it respects what individuals and groups do best.(1) Research shows that the traditional brainstorming methods.A. actually limit group creativityB. greatly encourage group creativityC. enable people to form more ideas togetherD. prevent people's involvement in the problems(2) According to Para. 4, when a member presents an idea, others tend to.A. think the other way roundB. follow his way of thinkingC. be more confident in their own ideasD. be less willing to share their own ideas(3) What should group members first do early in the problem-solving process?A. Discuss the problem.B. Simplify the problem.C. Put down group statements together.D. Write down their individual descriptions.(4) How can each group member make changes to his initial solution?A. By adding in collected evidence.B. By reorganizing his own words.C. By drawing on others' ideas.D. By making his statement briefer.(5) What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?A. To advocate a way to make group thinking more effective.B. To demonstrate the difficulty in organizing group thinking.C. To highlight the differences between divergence and convergence.D. To show the advantage of group thinking over individual thinking.四、任务型阅读21、【来源】 2018年3月高考真题天津卷第56~60题10分For many teenagers, a job is a way to earn a little extra money. For me, it is more than that.At the age of 16, I was offered my very first job as a shopgirl in a clothing store. On the first day, my manager was training me how to fold and organize platform after platform of clothes. The work seemed overwhelming, and everything had to be done in an accurate way. I got so impatient because I couldn't get it right the first couple of times. After about ten tries, I had the clothes folded perfectly. Then it took me thirty minutes to get them all looking uniform. Now, I fold and organize clothes every day, and I'm able to do them well. Through this experience, I've learned to be patient.Helping customers and establishing connections with them is one of the things I love most about my job. About two months ago, I helped a woman who was looking for a dress. She told me exactly what she was picturing—a blue dress with long sleeves and a lace neck. We didn't have any such dress, and when I explained that to her, she wasn't very happy. Instead of getting annoyed, I tried getting to know her a bit better and asked what the dress was for, so I could find other items in her size that could work. We sharedour love of the Netflix fashion show, and she ended up buying $200 worth of new clothes, having found other items she liked. This experience has taught me to be more open with strangers.Every job has its share of frustrations and challenges; to do well you must learn to deal with them.I've learned this from my own experience, and it has helped me in other aspects of my life as well.(1) What was the author's first job?

For more than 40 years she made it morally necessary to know everything—to read every book worth reading, to see every movie worth seeing. When she was still in her early 30s, publishing essays in such important magazines as Partisan Review, she appeared as the symbol of American culture life, trying hard to follow every new development in literature, film and art. With great effort and serious judgment, Sontag walked at the latest edges of world culture.Seriousness was one of Sontag's lifelong mottos, but at a time when the barriers between the well-educated and the poorly-educated were obvious, she argued for a true openness to the pleasure of pop culture. In Notes Camp, the 1964 essay that first made her name, she explained what was then a little-known set of difficult understandings, through which she could not have been more famous. Notes on Camp, she wrote, represents "a victory of 'form' over 'content', 'beauty' over 'morals' ".By conviction(信念)she was a sensualist(感觉论者), but by nature she was a moralist, and in the works she published in the 1970s and 1980s, it was the latter side of her that came forward. In Illness as Metaphor—published in 1978, after she suffered cancer—she argued against the idea that cancer was somehow a special problem of repressed(被压抑的)personalities, a concept that effectively blamed the victim for the disease. In fact, re-examining old positions was her lifelong habit.In America, her story of a 19th century Polish actress who set up a perfect society in California, won the National Book Award in 2000. But What made her achieve lasting fame was a tireless, all-purpose cultural view."Sometimes, " she once said, "I feel that, in the end, all I am really defending…is the idea of seriousness, of true seriousness." And in the end, she made us take it seriously too.(1) It is implied but not stated in the first paragraph that Sontag.A. was a symbol of American cultural lifeB. developed world literature, film and artsC. published many essays about world cultureD. kept pace with the newest development of world culture(2) She first won her name through.A. publishing essays in magazines like Partisan ReviewB. her story of a Polish actressC. her explanation of a set of difficult understandingsD. her book Illness as Metaphor(3) From the works Susan published in the 1970s and 1980s, we can learnthat.A. she was more a moralist than a sensualistB. she was more a sensualist than a moralistC. she believed repressed personalities mainly led to illnessD. she would like to re-examine old positions(4) According to the passage, Susan Sontag would agree to the ideas except.A. we should try hard to follow every new development in literature, film and artB. Cancer can be defeated because it is a special problem of repressed personalities.C. 'Form' should be over 'content', 'beauty' should be over 'morals'D. We should defend the idea of seriousness, of true seriousness(5) What is the passage mainly about?A. A lifelong motto: seriousness.B. Susan Sontag is the symbol of American culture.C. How Susan Sontag became famous.D. An introduction to Susan Sontag and her watchword.19、【来源】 2019年天津高三二模十二校联考C篇第46~50题12.5分Tiny microbes(微生物)are at the heart of a new agricultural technique to manage harmful greenhouse gas. Scientists have discovered how microbes can be used to turn carbon dioxide into soil-enriching limestone(石灰石), with the help of a type of tree that grows in tropical areas, such as West Africa.Researchers have found that when the Iroko tree is grown in dry, acidic soil and treated with a combination of natural fungi(霉菌)and other bacteria, not only does the tree grow well, it also produces the mineral limestone in the soil around its root.The Iroko tree makes a mineral by combining Ca from the earth with$$\text{C}{{\text{O}}_{2}}$$ from the atmosphere. The bacteria then create the conditions under which this mineral turns into limestone. The discovery offers a new way to lock carbon into the soil, keeping it out of the atmosphere. In addition to storing carbon in the trees' leaves and in the form of limestone, the mineral in the soil makes it more suitable for agriculture.The discovery could lead to reforestation(重新造林)projects in tropical countries, and help reduce carbon dioxide in the atmosphere in the developing world. It has already been used in West Africa and is being tested in Bolivia, Haiti and India.The findings were made in a three-year project involving researchers from the Universities of Edinburgh, Granada, Lausanne and Delft University of Technology. The project examined several microbiological methods of locking $$\text{C}{{\text{O}}_{2}}$$ as limestone, and the lroko-bacteria way showed best results. Work was funded by the European Commission under the Future & Emerging Technologies (FET) scheme.Dr. Bryne Ngwenya of the Universiy of Edinburgh's School of GeoSciences, who led the research, said, "By taking advantage of this natural limestone-producing process, we have a low-tech, safe, readilyemployed and easily operating way to lock carbon out of the atmosphere, while improving farming conditions in tropical countries."(1) The passage is mainly introducing.A. some useful natural fungi and bacteriaB. a new way to deal with greenhouse gasC. a newly-found tree in West AfricaD. the soil-enriching limestone created by scientists(2) Which of the following is True about tiny microbes?A. Most tiny microbes like living in dry, acidic soil.B. $$\text{CO}_2$$ can be broken down by natural fungi and bacteria.C. The more greenhouse gas is, the more active tiny microbes become.D. Tiny microbes get along well with the Iroko tree in special soil.(3) What does the underlined word "it" in paragraph 3 probably refer to?A. Carbon dioxide.B. Carbon.C. Soil.D. Limestone.(4) According to the passage, what can we infer?A. The action of the tiny microbes can increase the oxygen in the earth.B. Researchers have done the experiment on trees in Africa for three years.C. Researchers tend to use natural power to solve their problem.D. West Africa is one of the most polluted areas all over the world.(5) According to the passage, the Iroko-bacteria method.A. can be used to improve the farming landB. can save a lot of seriously destroyed woodsC. has been popularized in Bolivia, Haiti and IndiaD. should be spread all around the world in the future20、【来源】 2019年天津高三二模十二校联考(D篇)第51~55题12.5分For as long as there have been gifts, we naturally make choice based on the recipient(接受者). But what if we have been wrong all along and that we could turn things around, which not only made gift buying easier, but the recipient happier?In 2015, psychologists Lauren Human and Lara Akain conducted an online survey, which suggested that when people buy gifts, they prefer to choose something based on the recipient's personality and tastes. Most people also said that they preferred receiving gifts bought with them in mind: gifts for them.But Human and Akain wondered if this approach to giving failed to take advantage of the way we connect as people. So they sent 78 volunteers into a shopping centre before Mother's Day. Half were told to buy a card that "reveals(揭示)your knowledge of the recipient" while the others set out to buy a card that "reveals your true self". After the purchase, the gives who had thought partly of themselves reported feeling emotionally closer to their mothers.To find out how that approach goes down with recipients, the psychologists did another test, asking more than 100 students to choose a song on Tunes to give to a friend, partner or family member. Each half of the group received the same instructions as the card buyers. Results revealed that recipients of songs that revealed something of the givers felt closer to TAL#NBSP them than those who received gifts bought only with them in mind.Human and Aknin suggest it might apply to all gifts. "If building stronger social connections is the underlying(潜在的)goal"of a gift and surely it should be—then we "may well be advised to offer more self-reflective gifts". In short, for a present to be meaningful, you need to give away a bit of yourself, even if there is risk that the gift might not so closely suit the recipient's practical needs or tastes as one acquired purely with that in mind.Moreover, giving something of oneself can be a safe act, the psychologists added. Because it reduced the risk of revealing poor knowledge of a recipient by attempting to buy something that fits their character—and failing.But a note of caution here: what the research does not examine is the potential risk in repeated, unsympathetic give-centered giving, which, according to Human and Aknin "could signal self-obsession" —and nobody wants to reveal that about themselves.(1) From the Mother's Day card test, we can conclude that.A. gifts chosen with the give in mind work well on the giverB. most people choose gifts with the recipient in mindC. most people choose gifts based on their personal tastesD. gifts chosen with the give in mind work well on the recipient(2) What do the underlined words "them, them" refer to in older of appearance?A. The recipients; the givers.B. The givers; the recipients.C. The gives; the givers.D. The recipients; the recipients.(3) What does the author think is the significance of gift giving?A. Making the giver's life happier.B. Showing one's knowledge of the recipient.C. Establishing and strengthening social connections.D. meeting the recipient's practical needs.(4) Which of the following is Human and Aknin's advice on gift giving?A. Choose gifts that reflect more of yourself.B. Just focus on your own tastes when choosing gifts.C. Buy something that fits the recipient's character most.D. Be careful not to signal your true personality.(5) Which is the best title of this passage?A. The tradition of gift giving.B. The purpose of gift giving.C. The effect of gift giving.D. The psychology of gift giving.三、写作(共两节,共35分)第一节、阅读表达(每小题2分,共10分)21、【来源】 2019年天津高三二模十二校联考第56~60题10分2018~2019学年天津河西区高二下学期期末第66~70题10分(每题2分)Tim Haris, a young man with Down's symdrome(唐氏综合症), hasn't let his disability stop him from opening a restaurant in New Mexico.Tim's Place, a restaurant in Albuquerque, New Mexico, serves up traditional diner favorites such as blueberry pancakes, bacon, eggs, and cheeseburgers—all with hugs. Considered as the"world's friendliest restaurant, "it has served more than 32, 400 hugs to hungry customers. The restaurant's owner, Tim Harris, has made it his mission to hug every visitor who comes in.Harris, who has Down's syndrome, has never let his disability get in his way. Since age 14, he's promised to own a restaurant. He got a part-time job and worked as a restaurant host when he was in high school, and then graduated from Eastern New Mexico University with certificates in Food Service and Office Skills. After that, with his family's help and support, Harris' childhood dream became a reality. Alongside the Mexican and traditional American food, Tim's Place's menu offers "calorie-free" and "guilt-free" hugs."I love giving all the customers a hug because I want them to feel comfortable and connected and being around friends, " Harris told Albuquerque The Magazine. Customers seem to love it, too. Many of the regulars have been going every week ever since the restaurant opened. To his family's knowledge, Harris is the only restaurant owner in the United States with Down's syndrome. But they're hoping he won't be the last.Harris wants to show other people with disabilities what's possible."We've had several families with young children with disabilities who have come in or written, saying they never thought this would be possible for their sons or daughters.

Most of them will feel sympathy if you say, "I'm working to remember names better. Yours is right on the tip of my tongue. What is it again? "Use associations.Link each person you meet with one thing you find interesting or unusual. For example, you could make a mental note: "Vicki Cheng—tall, black hair." To reinforce (加强) your associations, write them on a small card as soon as possible.Limit the number of new names you learn at one time.When meeting a group of people, concentrate on remembering just two or three names. Free yourself from remembering every one. Few of the people in mass introductions expect you to remember their names. Another way is to limit yourself to learning just first names. Last names can come later.Go early.Consider going early to conferences, parties and classes. Sometimes just a few people show up on time.That's fewer names for you to remember. And as more people arrive, you can hear them being introduced to others-an automatic review for you.(1) How will most people feel when you try hard to remember their names?A. They will be moved.B.

The ox is a representative of the farming culture of China. In the farming economy (经济), oxen are the major animals pulling plows (犁).Of course, the good of oxen is not limited to plowing. In fact, they are seen as "TAL#NBSP boats on land" for their ability to carry loads. Besides, the whole body of an ox is full of treasures. Their meat and milk are food full of nutrition, and their skin can be used to make clothes and shoes. With all these qualities, oxen are regarded as generous creatures.In the past, oxen played an important role in the spiritual life of the Chinese. Even today, oxen still play a special part in some folk activities. For example, some people who live in southwest China will cook cattle bone soup and share it among family members when holding the ceremony for children who reach 13. They believe that the cattle bone soup represents the blood relationship among family members. In order to express their love for oxen, people in some other areas will run to shake off diseases on the 16th day of the first month by the lunar calendar (农历), and during their run they will take their oxen along, which indicates they regard the creature as human.Because of the contribution of oxen in their lives, the Chinese people are very grateful to the animal. In addition, the use of oxen in ceremonies and the thanks people owe to oxen help to develop various traditional customs, which becomes an important part of the folk culture of the Chinese nation.(1) The words "boats on land" underlined in Paragraph 2 refer to.A. animals for taking goodsB. creatures for pulling plowsC. treasures of the folk cultureD. tools in the farming economy(2) From the third paragraph, we know that.A. oxen are no more important today than in the pastB. ceremonies are held when people cook cattle bone soupC. oxen are treated as human in some areas of ChinaD. people run with oxen to shake off diseases every month(3) Which of the following helps to develop traditional customs?A. The special role of oxen in farming.B. People's respect and love for oxen.C. The practical value of an ox's body.D. The contribution of oxen to the economy.(4) Why does the author write the text?A. To stress the importance of oxen in farming.B. To introduce the Chinese folk culture.C. To describe how to celebrate the Year of Ox.D. To explain how to develop agriculture with oxen.19、【来源】 2009年高考真题安徽卷(C篇)第44~47题8分(每题2分)Sometimes, the simplest ideas are the best. For example, to absorb heat from the sun to heat water, you need large, flat, black surfaces. One way to do that is to build those surfaces specially, on the roofs of buildings. But why go to all that trouble when cities are full of black surfaces already, in the form of asphalt (柏油) roads?Ten years ago, this thought came into the mind of Arian de Bondt, a Dutch engineer. He finally persuaded his boss to follow it up. The result is that their building is now heated in winter and cooled in summer by a system that relies on the surface of the road outside.The heat-collector is a system of connected water pipes. Most of them run from one side of the street to the other, just under the asphalt road. Some, however, dive deep into the ground.When the street surface gets hot in summer, water pumped through the pipes picks up this heat and takes it underground through one of the diving pipes. At a depth of 100 metres lies a natural aquifer (蓄水层) into which several heat exchangers (交换器) have been built. The hot water from the street runs through these exchangers, warming the groundwater, before returning to the surface through another pipe. The aquifer is thus used as a heat store.In winter, the working system is changed slightly. Water is pumped through the heat exchangers to pick up the heat stored during summer. This water goes into the building and is used to warm the place up. After performing that task, it is pumped under the asphalt and its remaining heat keeps the road free of snow and ice.(1) Which of the following is true according to the first two paragraphs?A. Arian de Bondt got his idea from his boss.B. Large, flat, black surfaces need to be built in cities.C. The Dutch engineer's system has been widely used.D. Heat can also be collected from asphalt roads.(2) For what purpose are the diving pipes used?A. To absorb heat from the sun.B. To store heat for future use.C. To turn solar energy into heat energy.D. To carry heat down below the surface.(3) From the last paragraph we can learn that.A. some pipes have to be re-arranged in winterB. the system can do more than warming up the buildingC. the exchangers will pick up heat from the street surfaceD. less heat may be collected in winter than in summer(4) What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?A. What we shall do if the system goes wrong.B. What we shall do if there are no asphalt roads.C. How the system cools the building in summer.D. How the system collects heat in spring and autumn.20、【来源】 2009年高考真题安徽卷(D篇)第48~51题8分(每题2分)Timetable(1) Which of the following is true of the membership card?A. Its number is 10865 305305.B.

Rainforests have a great effect on the world environment because they can take in heat from the sun and adjust the climate. Without the forest cover, these areas would reflect more heat into the atmosphere, warming the rest of the world. Losing the rainforests may also influence wind and rainfall patterns, potentially causing certain natural disasters all over the world.In the past hundred years, humans have begun destroying rainforests in search of three major resources (资源): land for crops, wood for paper and other products, land for raising farm animals. This action affects the environment as a whole. For example, a lot of carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) in the air comes from burning the rainforests. People obviously have a need for the resources we gain from cutting trees but we will suffer much more than we will benefit.There are two main reasons for this. Firstly, when people cut down trees, generally they can only use the land for a year or two. Secondly, cutting large sections of rainforests may provide a good supply of wood right now, but in the long run it actually reduces the world's wood supply.Rainforests are often called the world's drug store. More than 25% of the medicines we use today come from plants in rainforests. However, fewer than 1% of rainforest plants have been examined for their medical value. It is extremely likely that our best chance to cure diseases lies somewhere in the world's shrinking rainforests.(1) Rainforests can help to adjust the climate because they.A. reflect more heat into the atmosphereB. bring about high rainfall throughout the worldC. rarely cause the temperature to drop lower than 16℃D. reduce the effect of heat from the sun on the earth(2) What does the word "this" underlined in the third paragraph refer to?A. We will lose much more than we can gain.B. Humans have begun destroying rainforests.C. People have a strong desire for resources.D. Much carbon dioxide comes from burning rainforests.(3) It can be inferred from the text that.A. we can get enough resources without rainforestsB. there is great medicine potential in rainforestsC. we will grow fewer kinds of crops in the gained landD. the level of annual rainfall affects wind patterns(4) What might be the best title for the text?A. How to Save RainforestsB. How to Protect NatureC. Rainforests and the EnvironmentD.

Fortunately, there is much informationon the Web about job opportunities (机会). With all the information available, it's not surprising that people can feel confused. So if you're ready to start your first job or change careers, where do you begin?The Occupation Handbook is a good resource. Regularly updated, the Handbook is available as a book and online. Not only is information provided about the United States as a whole, but readers can easily search for information about their particular state. You can read about the fastest-growing occupations in the area where you live and find out what they are like. You can also learn how to apply for jobs.Take, for example, Nadia's situation. Nadia is a doctor's assistant in Iran, and her goal in the United States is to become a nurse. However, she needs to work while she is studying nursing. She is interested in becoming a medical assistant to help work her way through college. When going online to the Handbook and searching under "medical assistant", Nadia is happy to read that this is expected to be one of the fastest-growing careers through 2010. Besides, job opportunities are even better for people with experience. She discovers that medical assistants not only have to do some office work, but have medical responsibilities as well. Nadia decides this job will be interesting and will also provide excellent experience for her nursing career.The Occupation Handbook is just an example of websites that can help you plan a new career. When you have found information about some different careers, you will be ready to talk to career advisers. Choosing your future career is an extremely important decision. It's worth taking the time and finding as much information as you can.五、书面表达(共25分)23、【来源】 2009年高考真题安徽卷第66题25分2018~2019学年6月黑龙江哈尔滨香坊区哈尔滨市第六中学高一下学期月考第72题25分假设你正在参加全省中学生英语演讲比赛,请你针对有些父母经常翻看孩子日记或书包这一现象,写一篇演讲稿,陈述你的观点。

As a teenager arriving in America, knowing nothing, I wanted a father who could explain the human journey. In college, when friends called home for advice, I would sink into deep depression for what I did not have.Today, at twenty-seven, I have come to rediscover them in ways that my teenage mind would not allow—as adults and as friends with their own faults and weaknesses.One night after my move back home, I overheard my father on the telephone. There was some trouble. Later, Dad shared the problem with me. Apparently my legal training had earned me some privileges in his eyes. I talked through the problem with Dad, analyzing the purposes of the people involved and offering several negotiation strategies. He listened patiently before finally admitting. "I can't think like that. I am a simple man."Dad is a brilliant scientist who can deconstruct the building blocks of nature. Yet human nature is a mystery to him. That night I realized that he was simply not skilled at dealing with people, much less the trouble of a conflicted teenager. It's not in his nature to understand human desires.And so, there it was—it was no one's fault that my father held no interest in human lives while I placed great importance in them. We are at times born more sensitive, wide-eyed, and dreamy than our parents and become more curious and idealistic than them. Dad perhaps never expected me for a child. And I, who knew Dad as an intelligent man, had never understood that his intelligence did not cover all of my feelings.It has saved me years of questioning and confusion. I now see my parents as people who have other relationships than just Father and Mother. I now overlook their many faults and weaknesses, which once annoyed me.I now know my parents as friends: people who ask me for advice; people who need my support and understanding. And I've come to see my past clearer.What was the author's impression of her father when she was a teenager?A.Friendly but irresponsible.B.Intelligent but severe.C.Cold and aggressive.D.Caring and communicative.A.B.C.D.(2)A.B.C.D.(3)A.B.C.D.(4)A.My Parents as Friends B.My Parents as AdvisorsC.My Father—a Serious ManD.My Father—an Intelligent Scientist(5)Why did the author feel depressed when her friends called home?She did not have a phone to call home.Her father did not care about her human journey.Her father was too busy to answer her phone.Her father couldn't give her appropriate advice.After the author overheard her father on the telephone, .her father blamed her for impolitenessshe rediscovered human natureher father consulted with her about his problemher father changed attitude towards the authorThe author realized that .her father had too many faults and weaknessesher father was not as intelligent as she had thoughther father was not good at interpersonal relationshipsher father placed too much importance in social activitiesWhich of the following is the best title of this passage?14.In recent years, a growing body of research has shown that our appetite and food intakeare influenced by a large number of factors besides our biological need for energy, including our eating environment and our perception (感知) of the food in front of us.Studies have shown, for instance, that eating in front of the TV (or a similar distraction )can increase both hunger and the amount of food consumed. Even simple visual cues, like plate size and lighting, have been shown to affect portion size and consumption.A new study suggested that our short-term memory also may play a role in appetite.Several hours after a meal, people's hunger levels were predicted not by how much they'd eaten but rather by how much food they'd seen in front of them—in other words, how much they remembered eating.This disparity suggests the memory of our previous meal may have a bigger influence on our appetite than the actual size of the meal, says Jeffrey M. Brunstrom, a professor of experimental psychology at the University of Bristol.A.How we feel the food we eat.B.When we eat our meals.C.What element the food contains.D.How fast wheat our- meals.(1)A.B.C.D.(2)A.B.C.D.(3)A.Trick ourselves into eating less. B.Choose food with fewer calorie.C.Concentrate on food while eating.D.Pick dishes of the right size.(4)A.B.C.(5)"Hunger isn't controlled individually by the physical characteristics of a recent meal. We have identified an independent role for memory for that meal, " Brunstrom says. " This shows that the relationship between hunger and food intake is more complex than we thought."These findings echo earlier research that suggests our perception of food can sometimes trick our body's response to the food itself. In a 2011 study, for instance, people who drank the same 380-calorie milkshake on two separate occasions produced different levels of hunger-related hormonest (荷尔蒙)depending on whether the share's label said it contained 620 or 140 calorie. Moreover, the participants reported feeling more full when they thought they'd consumed a higher-calorie shake.What does this mean for our eating habits? Although it hardly seems practical to trick ourselves into eating less, the new findings do highlight the benefits of focusing on our food and avoiding TV and multitasking while eating.The so-called mindful-eating strategies can fight distractions and help us control our appetite, Brunstrom says.What is said to be a factor affecting our appetite and food intake?What would happen at meal time if you remembered eating a lot in the previous meal?You would probably be more particular about food.You would not feel like eating the same food.You would have a good appetite.You would not feel so hungry.What do we learn from the 2011 study?food labels may mislead consumers in their purchased.food labels may influence our body's response to food.Hunger levels depend on one's consumption of calorie.People tend to take in a lot more calorie than necessary.What does Brunstrom suggest we do to control our appetite?What is the main idea of the passage?Eating distractions often affect our food digestion.psychological factors influence our hunger levels.Our food intake is determined by our biological needs.D.Good eating habits will contribute to our health.四、语法填空(共10小题,每小题0.5分,共5分)15.According to a review of evidence in a medical journal, runners live threeyears 1 (long)than non-runners.

It was the first of many such activities, ranging from playing with disabled children to sitting with cancer patients in a hospital. These activities seemed to satisfy my desire to be useful and to feel a meaningful connection to the lives of others.My parents inculcated me with a belief that there was no greater human value than kindness, and encouraged me to make helping others and contributing to society important goals in life. Volunteer work provided a way of attempting to realize the truth of these(1)(2)(3)(4)(5)messages.I learned that volunteerism is not a one-way act of helping someone less fortunate.Involvement in the life of another person has enriched my life as well. Seeing how people deal with the challenges of their lives has taught me valuable lessons in courage and dignity. Many of the people whom I have met as a volunteer are an unforgettable part of my life.
