In the following 4 years, he was just living with his friends and bouncing around wherever he could. That lasted 6 both his parents died off. The police were going to 7 him over to a local shelter. However, at his father's funeral, his half-brother in Arizona offered to 8 him to start over.Selvidge saw the move as an opportunity to start a 9 life. The first day he came to Perry High School, he 10 to the Theatre Club and finally gained a role to play. That was the beginning of his 11 career. Last year he directed his own play and 12 in a musical and two comedies.

Instead, these employees work wherever they can access the people and materials needed to complete their projects and daily tasks. One of the most common locations for telecommuters to work is their own homes. However, with today's advanced technological equipment, employees can work anywhere. Laptop computers and tablets allow for facile mobility, as do wireless Internet “hot spots” and even smartphones with highspee d Internet connectivity.More employers should consider the advantages of a telecommuting arrangement. It allows employers to hire people who otherwise would not be available. This includes parents with small children, the physically disabled, and people living far from urban centers. Plus, it allows for a more globalized business, since the company can employ people in all parts of the world, regardless of location or time zone. According to a recent poll, approximately one in five workers telecommutes frequently, and nearly 10 percent never set foot in a traditional office.Still, some barriers do exist to more employers, adopting a telecommuting work model. Liability insurance and worker's compensation in case of accidents can become serious issues, and all other applicable laws and regulations must be fully investigated. In addition, the long-established way to manage employees has been to observe workers firsthand. Therefore, many companies do not allow full-time telecommuting for fear of a drop in productivity levels.However, most studies find that frequent face-to-face interactions throughvideo-conferencing, as well as allowing for periods of adjustment to the new work system, are often all that is needed to overcome any obstacles. The advantages of telecommuting-even two or three days a week—far outweigh any possible disadvantages, and most of the employer concerns about telecommuting are unfounded. They are simply based on ignorance of new hi-tech breakthroughs or on fear of change to the traditional workforce environment. Clearly, employers today should not overlook the option of telecommuting.21.Which of the following best describes the author's attitude toward telecommuting? A.Afraid. B.Enthusiastic.C.Disapproving. D.Indifferent.22.What is the main point of the second paragraph?A.Virtual offices are not limited to the home.B.Telecommuting reduces rent and electricity costs.C.Telecommuting has numerous benefits.D.Living far from urban centers is no longer a problem.23.Why did the author write the passage?A.To describe the technical terms used by telecommuters.B.To criticize the greed of companies that do not allow telecommuting.C.To explain the reasons why some companies do not permit telecommuting.D.To praise the advantages of telecommuting.24.Which of the following states the author's opinion?A.Companies considering telecommuting should check on legal issues and union rules.B.There are no serious barriers in organizations, attempting to adopt telecommuting. C.To make telecommuting common, all companies must adopt video-conferencing. D.Telecommuting should not be allowed for fewer than three days a week.三、七选五Research shows that poor sleep has immediate negative effects on your hormones, exercise performance, and brain function. Here are 5 evidence-based tipsto sleep better at night.1. Increase bright light exposure during the day.Your body has a natural time—keeping clock known as your circadian rhythm. Natural sunlight or bright light during the day helps keep your circadian rhythm healthy. 25.It also reduces the time it takes to fall asleep by 83%.2.26.Exposure to light during the day is beneficial but nighttime light exposure has the opposite effect. Again, this is due to its effect on your circadian rhythm, tricking your brain into thinking it’s still daytime. This reduces hormones like melatonin, which help you relax and get deep sleep. Blue light—which electronic devices like smartphones and computers emit in large amounts—is the worst in this regard.3. Don’t consume caffeine late in the day.Caffeine has numerous benefits and is consumed by 90% of the US population. 27.However, consuming caffeine up to 6 hours before bed significantly worsens sleep quality.4. Try to sleep and wake at consistent times.Your body’s circadian rhythm functions in agreement with sunrise and sunset. Being consistent with your sleep and waking times can aid long-term sleep quality. If you struggle with sleep, try to get in the habit of waking up and going to bed at similar times. 28.5. Optimize(优化)your bedroom environment.Many people believe that the bedroom environment and its setup are key factors in getting a good night’s sleep. These factors include temperature, noise, external lights, and furniture arrangement. To optimize your bedroom environment, try to minimize external noise, light, and artificial lights from devices like alarm clocks. 29.A.Set your bedroom temperature.B.Reduce blue light exposure in the evening.C.Avoid irregular or long naps during daytime.D.After several weeks, you may not even need an alarm.E.A single dose can enhance focus, energy, and sports performance.F.Make sure your bedroom is a quiet, relaxing clean, and enjoyable place.G.This improves daytime energy, as well as nighttime sleep quality and duration.四、用单词的适当形式完成句子30.We will never know if we are interested or ________ (talent)in a subject if we don’t try it.31.Athenians willingly ________ (obey)the written laws which they themselves passed.32.Understanding your own needs and styles of communication is as important as learning to convey your ________ (affect)and emotions.33.The president appeared,________ (accompany)by six strong body guards. 34.To everybody’s surprise,they got ________ (divorce)last month,though they had been married for only two months.35.I know your________ is buying a car. Since your economic situations are________ to you,you can buy one. If necessary,I can do you a________.(favour) 36.Mary entered the hall________ and many gentlemen were attracted byher________.(elegant)37.The tests are supposed to provide a basis for the ________ (assess)of children. 38.However,when Claire first saw the robot,she felt________ (alarm). 39.Asimov invented a theoretical framework which was designed to show how ideas and ________ (think)may develop in the future.五、单句改错40.He had a strong desire for help and care for people.41.She is cold--hearted and has no sympathy to the poor.42.Her mother is not in the favour of her marriage at all.43.The singer was accompanied to the piano by her sister.44.We were much alarming by the fire in the forest.45.Germany declared war to France.46.Aged people are always envied of the young.47.The expressway being completed by 2022 will help to promote the tourism of this city.48.Under that tree sit a beautiful girl.49.I’ll go to the post office. Do you have a letter to post?。

高二下学期暑假作业(四)第Ⅰ卷(满分70分)第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30 分)阅读下面的短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
AParents usually go to malls to find new school supplies for their children. One of the most important things to get during this time is the backpack. Most students choose to bring a backpack because it allows them to have both hands free. This makes the bag less likely to hinder (妨碍)other activities that the person carrying it may be doing at the same time. Here are the ways parents can choose the perfect backpack for school.How many books will children be carrying to school? How many notebooks should be inside the bag? Parents should know these details before buying a bag for their children. Each situation requires a different bag so it pays to ask children about the expected load.Do children need special storage for the bag? If they will be carrying a laptop computer inside the new backpack, make sure that parents get a model that’s designed specifically for laptop use. This will protect the computer from bumps and falls that might damage the device if it had less protection.Are children going to use the bag for a long time? If they want to use a bag for a long time,parents will be better off investing in a good brand that is known for1quality. Parents may have to pay extra cash to get the top of the line and the best backpack in the market.Count the pockets. Backpacks usually come with a lot of pockets, and generally, the more pockets, the better. This allows children to organize their things, like pens and pencils inside small pockets.Picking the perfect school backpack is all about getting the sweet compromise(折中)between form, function and price. Remember to choose the best fit for children’s needs.1.What does the second paragraph mainly talk about?A.Parents should find out how many books their children have.B.Parents must ask teachers for help before buying a backpack.C.Parents should know the weight of things that will go inside the backpack.D.Parents must ask their children’s requirements when buying a backpack.2.The underlined word “bumps” in the third paragraph is closest in meaningto_____C.knocks B. jumps C. standsD. beats3.Which of the following can we know from the text?A.Picking a backpack is very easy to do.B.It’s better for children to have a backpack that has more pockets.C.The backpacks that have a good brand are more popular with children.D.Parents always feel worried when buying a backpack for their children.BDuring the past Spring Festival, many children may have received red packets from their families. But Xing Pu, a 40-year-old economist,is asking the government to give red packets to every Chinese citizen.Xing suggested the government give out 1,000 yuan to each Chinese since the government income has increased rapidly in recent years. He said his suggestion would allow everyone to directly enjoy the fruits of the country's economic success,2help the lower-income groups deal with rising prices and increase consumption(消费)around the country.Recent years have seen the government carry out a series of pro-poor (扶贫) and pro-rural(惠农)policies,including increasing spending on public health care and calling off the agricultural tax. But the lower-income group still needs more help while being hit hard by an 11-year high in prices and recent snowstorms.Xing said while making the draft,he has borrowed many ideas from practices in countries like the United States and Singapore. Earlier this year,the governments of the two nations offered cash handouts(救济)to their citizens as the result of a surplus in government income. As for in China,“We can even encourage the rich to donate their 1,000 yuan red packet to the poor,” said Xing.Although Xing's suggestion has gained wide support among ordinary Chinese on the Internet,many other economists criticized it as unpractical. Even Xing himself admitted he made the suggestion without any careful calculation. But they agreed with Xing's point that the growing economic pie should be shared among the people.“To better use the increase of money,handing out money is not a solution that holds good for all time. It could be better to improve the public service or cut the price of energy use in daily life,” said Qiao Xinsheng,an economics professor.4. Xing Pu suggested that the government give out 1,000 yuan to each Chinesebecause ________.A. the poor should get help from the richB. the government should help the richC. the growing economic pie should be shared among the peopleD. the government doesn't know how to use the money5.What has the government done to help the lower-income group?A. Spending less on public health care.B. Increasing the agricultural tax.C. Handing out money to every Chinese.3D. Carrying out pro-poor policies.6.According to some experts,what is better than giving out money?A. Supplying food to everyone every day.B. Cutting the price of energy use in daily life.C. Controlling the rising of prices.D. Increasing the government income.7.Xing Pu's ideas of giving red packets to every Chinese citizen mainly came from ________.A. children receiving red packets from their familiesB. the US and Singapore governments offering cash handouts to their citizensC. the government's increasing spending on public health careD. the rising prices in the countryCShellharbour City Library provides a range of Library Special Needs Services for people who are unable to access our library service in the usual way.

I remember it clearly. Our loving family dog was nearing the end of his life.5My father picked him up and put him in a little bed we had made for him. Our dog, my companion, whom we had cared for, bit my father when he attempted to help him. How could he? Why? I couldn’t understand it. I didn’t like him anymore.I hadn’t thought about that story for a long time but something that happened last week brought it back to me. I went to speak with a friend. When I knocked on the door, I met in an instant an angry look and a few harsh(尖刻的)words. When the door was slammed(砰地关上)in my face, I stood there shocked, and in a rush, I was reminded of my dog bit my father 20 years ago or so. What brought that story back was that same feeling of betrayal.Both stories taught me something the next day. You see, when I got up in the morning and was told my dog had died, it became clear to me that he must have been in great pain. For him to have bitten a family member, he could not have been himself. Much the same for the other story when I learned that my friend’s wife had just left him.We are all beings of our environments, our opinions and feelings. And all of those things can cause you to say and do things that can’t be understood by those who are not in the same situation with you.If you meet someone either behaving out of character or acting in a way that doesn’t seem to fit the situation, put out your hand and be patient when you think it is least possible for him to do so. You may turn around a story that has a sad ending simply by your actions.12. What is the influence of the incident mentioned in Paragraph 1?A. It hurt his father’s feeling deeply.B. It has puzzled the author ever since.C. It left a deep impression on the author.D. It made the author dislike dogs.613. What made the author think of the story of about 20 years ago?A. His friend’s attitude.B. The photo of the dog.C. His father’s wound.D. His friend’s suffering.14. Why did the author’s friend say harsh words to the author?A. He was ill-tempered.B. He was suffering the pain of losing his wife.C. He was bothered by an unexpected visit.D. They once quarreled and he couldn’t forgive the author.15. What’s the author’s advice to us?A. Help those in need.B. Look before you leap.C. Respect for others is a kind of virtue.D. Learn to put yourself in others’ shoes.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10 分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出最佳选项。

得夺市安庆阳光实验学校武邑中学高二英语下学期暑假作业试题(4)一阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A 、B 、C、D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AWe all have our ways of marking time. As a photographer, my life is measured from one story to the next. My oldest son was born in the middle of a long story about the Endangered Species Act. My daughter came along with a pack of gray wolves. Twenty stories later, though, it’s the story in Alaska that I’ll remember best. It was the story about the loss of wilderness —and the story during which my wife Kathy got cancer. That’s the one that made time stand still. I stopped taking pictures on the day when she found that tumor (肿瘤). Cruelly, it was Thanksgiving. By Christmas, she had become very weak. Some days she was so sick that she couldn’t watch TV.Early examination saves time. But ours was not early. By the time you can feel it yourself, it’s often bigger than the doctor wants it to be.Cancer is a thief. It steals time. Our days are already short with worry. Then comes this terrible disease, unfair as storm at harvest time. But cancer also has the power to change us, for good. We learn to simplify, enjoying what we have instead of feeling sorry for what we don’t. Cancer even made me a better father. My work had made me a stranger to my three kids. But now I pay attention to what really matters. This is not a race. This is a new way of life and new way of seeing, all from the cancer.In the end each of us has so little time. We have less of it than we can possibly imagine. An d even though it turns out that Kathy’s cancer has not spread, and her prognosis (诊断) is good, we try to make it all count now, enjoying every part of every day.I’ve picked up my camera again. I watch the sky, searching for beautiful light. When winter storms come, Kathy and I gather our children and take the time to catch snowflakes (雪花) on our tongues. After all, this is good. This is what we’re living for.1.As a photographer, the author used to ________.A. leave his daughter with a pack of gray wolvesB. express his love for his family in a special wayC. devote much more to his career than his familyD. miss a great many important historical moments2.Why did the author decide to stop taking pictures? ________A. To cure his own disease.B. To leave the wildness alone.C. To seek a better position.D. To spend more timewith his wife3.What is the biggest change the cancer has brought to the author? ________A. He treasured every bit of time with his family.B. He has become a stranger to his children.C. He takes his work more seriously.D. He focuses more on medical care.4.The author and his family catch snowflakes on their tongues probably because ________.A. the snowflakes taste very goodB. snowflakes are what they feed onC. they regard that as a way to enjoy lifeD. there is beautiful light in the snowflakesB.Opened in 1883, the Brooklyn Bridge was the first longspan bridge to carry motor traffic, and it quickly became the model for the great suspension bridges of the following century. Spanning New York's East River, it provided the first traffic artery (要道)between Manhattan Island and Brooklyn. Before that, the only transportation was by ferries, which were slow and could be dangerous in winter.The construction of a bridge over the East River had been discussed since the early 19th century, but the outbreak of the Civil War in 1861 deflected all consideration of the project. When the war ended in 1865, the bridge became an important issue once more. In 1867, the New York State passed an act setting up the New York Bridge Company for the purpose of constructing a bridge between Manhattan Island and Brooklyn.John Augustus Roebling was chosen to design the bridge. Born in Germany in 1806, he held aggressive views as a student and was listed by the German police as a dangerous figure. He emigrated to America in 1830 to escape political discrimination.Roebling proposed a bridge with a span of 1,500 feet (465 m), with two towers in the East River serving as the main piers. The bridge that was actually built is longer—1,597 feet (486 m), the longest suspension bridge at that time.5.What was the purpose of building the Brooklyn Bridge?A.To replace an old bridge.B.To set up a model for bridge construction.C.To build a longspan bridge for the Civil War.D.To provide faster and safer transportation than boats. 6.Which of the following is closest in meaning to “deflected” in thesecond paragraph?A.blocked B.developed C. deserved D.indicated 7.Which of the following is TRUE about the Brooklyn Bridge?A.It was built in 1865. B.It is shorter than originally planned.C.It was first proposed after the Civil War.D.It was built by the New York Bridge Company.8.According to the passage, which of the following correctly describes John Augustus Roebling?A.He participated in the Civil War and was seriously wounded.B.He was the first person to propose the construction of the bridge.C.He was chosen to design the bridge because of his aggressive views.D.He moved to America because he was discriminated against in his home country.二(共 5 小题,每小题 2 分,满分 10 分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

In one classie experiment, people were showna vertical line and asked to find a line of identicallength from a selection of three.You might think that this is an absurdly easy task, andwhen people perform it by themselvesthey do it very well. However, psychologists havediscovered that we are very easily swayed by the opinions ofother people when we do this task in a group. In one study, agroup of three peoplewas set up,where two of the people were confederates(同伙)of the experimenter.When the confederates deliberately g ave wrong answers,people were often swayed to give the wrong answer also. In fact, 75% of people gave at least one wrong answer, with some people conforming to peer pressure on every oasion.But why do people conform in this way? In an easy task like this, it seems that people donot want to step out of line with the prevailing opinionof the group. On more difficult tasks, people also conformbecause they lose 〔onfidence in their own ability to makedecisions and preferto trust the majority opinion instead.A typical example of this kind of conformity arises whenwe e across people in distress.Would you help a woman who has been attacked in thestreet?It turns out that you are much more likely to go to herassistance if you are alone.When other people are also around,a diffusion of responsibility ours. People are paralysed intoinaction, because everyone assumes that someone else willgo to the woman' s assistance.8.In Paragraph 1, the underlined word "conform" probably means“ ”A. seek independenceB. disobey ordersC. seek pleasureD. follow what others do9.What is the purpose of the experiment described inParagraph 2?

AFor their nick-of-time acts, Toby, a 2-year-old dog, and Winnie, a cute cat, were named Dog and Cat of the Year by the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.As Amy Paul choked(哽住) on a piece of apple at her home, her dog jumped up, landing hard on her chest and forcing the piece in her throat out. When the Keesling family of Indiana was about to be killed by carbon monoxide, their cat clawed at the wife Cathy’s hair until she woke up and called for help.No one could explain their timely heroics.Both pets were rescued by their owners in infancy-----Toby as a4-week-old thrown into a garbage bin to die, and Winnie as a week-old orphan hiding under a barn, so helpless that Cathy’s husband, Eric, had to feed her milk with an eyedropper.As the Keeslings recalled it, a gas-driven pump being used broke down, spreading carbon monoxide through the house. By the time Winnie went to rescue, the couple’s 14-year-old son was already unconscious. “Winnie jumped on the bed and was clawing at me, with a kind of angry sound,” Cathy Keesling said. The state police responding to her 911 call said the family was only minutes from death, judging by the amount of poisonous gas in the house.Amy Paul’s husband was at his job when she took a midday break from making jewelry and bit into an apple. “Normally I peel them, but I read in Good Housekeeping Magazine that the skin has all the nutrients, so I ate the skin, and that’s what caused me to choke,” she recalled. “I couldn’t breathe and I was in panic when Toby jumped on me. He never does that, but he did, and saved my life.”Both Toby and Winnie accompanied their owners to the awards luncheon.1. What would be the suitable title for the passage?A. Great Honors for Cat and DogB. Dog and Cat Honored for Saving Their MastersC. Unforgettable ExperiencesD. So Smart Animals Are2.

What caused the carbon monoxide spreading through the house?A. A pump breaking down.B. A driver breaking into the house.C. The burninggas. D. The poisonous gas.BWatson entered Mr. Smith's office. The boss was a hard man. He fired people who didn't do well without giving them a second chance.“Watson,” said Mr. Smith, “this past year your department hasn't earned money. We're going to drop that department. It's finished. I'm sorry, ---but you'll have to go.” “But, sir---if I just had a little more time. For the moment I need the job to keep my son at Riverside School.”“What's that!” said the boss.“ Riverside! I didn't know you had a boy t here. That's an expensive school for a man with your salary.”“I know, sir. But he likes it there so much!He's a star athlete and the best boxer in the school. The boys call him Champ (冠)there.”The boss sat perfectly still for a long time—a faraway (恍惚的) look in his eyes. Then, suddenly, he said, “We've got to close your department, Watson. But you'll take over a new job in another department. It means longer hours—maybe more pay. Now get out. You're here for life.”Watson got out, with surprise on his face. Then the boss took a letter from the top drawer of his desk. It was Herbie's last letter from Riverside School written a few days before he died. He had read it over and over again with sick pain. The letter read:I can't say the boys here are any nicer to me than the others were.I guess it's the same everywhere when you're a cripple (跛脚的人). But don't worry about me, Dad. They've got a good chemistry department here. And there's one boy here who is really great. He's a track star and boxing champ and just tops in chemistry. The boys call him Champ. He made them stop throwing my books around. And he knocked a boy down who hit me. He is the best friend I ever had. Dad, when I grow up, I want to do something for Champ.

So, Shanghai was responsible for cleaning and protecting the lower reaches of the Chang Jiang River but had no say in how the river’s upper reaches, which feed into Shanghai, are maintained.The new law will make it easier to control the amount of waste that ends up in local rivers and reduce inefficient use of waterways, said Zhang Jia-yi, director of the Shanghai Water Affairs Bureau, on the bureau’s website commenting on law yesterday.Zhang said the new law focuses on the efficient use of water sources and emphasizes the harmonious development of China’s population, its economy and environment.Zhang also emphasizes the city will crack down on companies and individuals that pollute the city’s water sources. The bureau sets up a special force to investigate(调查) water pollution in March.So far this year, the bureau has published more than 3 million in fines on various polluters, Zhang said.36. The best title for the news report should be ______.A. A new Law Is BornB. A New Water Law to Protect RiversC. Is it Necessary to Protect the RiversD. Make Full Use of Water Sources37. The underlined phrase “crack down on”means _____.A. bring up carefullyB. speak highly ofC. deal with seriouslyD. destroy completely38. Which of the following is NOT true?A. The law in 1988 is s uitable for the new requirements.B. The new law will stop waste being poured into the Chang Jiang River.C. A lot of polluting units have been fined this year.D. The new law and the old one are the same in protecting the environment.39. We can infer from the passage that _____ .A. the problem of protecting the water sources wasn’t paid much attention toB. no laws were carried out to manage the water sources in Shanghai.C. the new law mainly emphasizes how to make use of the water sources.D. companies or individuals that polluted the water sources didn’t get fined.BThe winter holidays are a special time at the White House. Each year, about 44,000 people come to see the holiday decorations or to attend holiday parties at the President’s home in Washington, D.C.I was able to attend a press preview of the holiday decorations recently, which was hosted by First Lady Laura Bush. This year’s theme for the decorations is “All Things Bright and Beautiful.”The decorations are all mad e of f resh flowers, garlands(花环), and fruits. The flowers will have to be changed every few days to keep the look fresh.The main Christmas tree is in the Blue Room. It’s an 18-foot fir tree—tall enough that the chan-delier(吊灯) had to be removed to make room for it. Fresh white lilies(百合), crystal garlands, and white lights decorate the White House Christmas tree. The room smells of pine and lilies.Mrs. Bush was asked whether she called the tree a holiday tree or a Christmas tree. “We know that Americans celebrate the season in a lot of different ways,”she said. “We’ll have a party and a reception here at the White House later during the month. But I think we’ve always called this the White House Christmas tree.”Another centerpiece of the decorations each year is the gingerbread house(姜饼屋), made by chief Thaddeus Dubois.“This is his second gingerbread house,”Mrs. Bush said. “And this year Dubois painstakingly(辛苦地,辛勤地) made it special.”The gingerbread house was made with 100 pounds of gingerbread, 150 pounds of white and dark chocolate, and clear, poured sugar windows. A strand of white lights inside the Gingerbread White House made it glow.40. Mrs. Bush chose “All Things Bright and Beautiful”as the theme for the decorations to ______..A. highlight nature’s beautyB. show the great wealth of the familyC. express her love of the countryD. differ from other people’s ideas41. Which of the following can probably be used to describe the White House after the decorations?A. New and clean.B. Elegant(高贵的) and beautiful.C. Smelly and shaky.D. Luxurious(豪华的) and serious.42. The passage is mainly about ______.A. how Americans observe ChristmasB. decorating the White House for holidaysC. the differences between a holiday tree and a Christmas treeD. how to select a present for the White House作业41-5 CDACD 6-10 DDDAA 11-15 BDDBB 16-20 ABCDC 21-25 BABBA 26-30 BACAD 31-35DACDC 36-40 BCACA 41-45 BB。

"But animals don' t understand international borders. " When animals are kept in small areas,they can spread diseases more easily. They can also hurt the environment by eating too many plants and other animals. Allowing animals to cross borders would help improve these conditions,experts say.But that's just one reason why people to create international parks.

Other countries , such as Zimbabwe and Lesotho, are also forming parks. The parks will let animals wander over larger parts of southern Africa, much as they did centuries ago, and it really helps expand elephant and lion populations, which are now damaged by, confinement (局限)in smaller parks.The parks can also help countries attracting tourists and creating jobs.

ASuppose you are a visitor in the land of Mongolia(蒙古), some friends ask you to eat with them. What kind of mann ers do they want you to have? They want you to give a loud bur p(打饱嗝儿)after you finish eating. Burping would show that you like your fo od. In some countries, if you give a big burp, you are told to say “Excuse me, please”.In many places people like to eat together. But in some parts of Polynesia it is bad manners to be seen eating at all. People sho w their good manners by turning their backs on others while the y eat.What are manners like in an East African town? The people try not to see you. They are being polite. You may see a friend. He may not see you at all. If you are polite, you will sit down besid e him. You will wait until he finishes what he is doing.

The alarm clock announces the start of another bus y weekday in the morning. You jump out of bed, rush into the sh ower, into your clothes and out the door with hardly a moment t o think. A stressful journey to work gets your blood pressure cli mbing. Once at the office, you glance through the newspaper wi th depressing stories or reports of disasters. In that sort of moo d, who can get down to work, particularly some creative, origina l problem- solving work?The way most of us spend our mornings is exactly opposite to t he conditions that promote flexible, open- minded thinking. Ima ginative ideas are most likely to come to us when we’re unfocused. If you are one of those energetic morning people, your most inve ntive time comes in the early evening when you are relaxed. Sl eepy people’s lack of focus leads to an increase in creative pro blem solving. By not giving yourself time totune into your wande ring mind, you’re missing out on the surprising solutions it may offer.The trip you take to work doesn’t help, either. The stress slows down the speed with which signals travel between neurons (神经细胞) , making inspirations less likely to occur. And while we all sh ould read a lot about what’s going on in the world, it would not make you feel good for sure, so put that news website or newsp aper aside until after the day’s work is done.So what would our mornings look like if we wanted to start them with a full capacity for creative problem solving? We’dset the alarm a few minutes early and lie awake in bed, followin g our thoughts where they lead. We’d stand a little longer under the warm water of the shower, stopping thinking about tasks in favor of a few more minutes of relaxation. We’d take some deep breaths on our way to work, instead of complaining about hea vy traffic. And once in the office—after we get a cup of coffee—we’d click on links not to the news of the day but to the funniest vi deos the web has to offer.1. According to the author, we are more creative when we are .A. focusedB. relaxedC. awakeD. busy2. What does the author imply about newspapers?A. They are solution providers.B. They are a source of inspiration.C. They are normally full of bad news.D. They are more educational than websites.3. By "tune into your wandering mind” (in Para. 2) , the author means" ".A. wander into the wildB. listen to a beautiful tuneC. switch to the traffic channelD. stop concentrating on anything4. The author writes the last paragraph in order to .A. offer practical suggestionsB. summarize past experiencesC. advocate diverse ways of lifeD. establish a routine for the future【参考答案】40.BCDA【山东省潍坊市2014高考英语一模试题】CDo you like shopping? Or does the thought of wandering rou nd the shops fill you with terror? For some of us,shopping is an enjoyable way of spending our spare time and o ur money. For me.it's something I would rather avoid.Thank goodness for the Internet! It's more convenient to buy CDs,electrical items,even food,from the comfort of your sofa.But that’s not the only reason:price is an important factor.We can buy goods and services c heaper online. But sometimes the problem is knowing what to b uy.This has led to a type of shopping called “showrooming”.Showrooming is something I've done.I will go to a shop to see ,touch and try out products but then go home and buy them onli ne at a knock—down price.I'm not alone in doing this.Research by a compa ny called Foolproof,found 24%of people showroomed while Christmas shopping in 2013.Amy Cashman,Head of Technology at TNS UK,says the reasons for this new shopping habit are that“people ar e lacking time,lacking money and they want security about the products they a re buying.”She explains that consumers are not only shopping online at home but they are using the Internet in store or on the ir smartphones to shop around.But does this mean technology will kill shops? Certainly shops will change.They will have to offer more competitive prices or encourage people to buy more by giving in—store discounts or free girls.We mustn’t forget that buying in a shop means you can get exp ert advice from the sales assistant and you can get good afterc are.It’s good to speak to a real human rather than look at a fa celess computer screen but at least by showrooming,you get the best of both worlds!51.The two questions in Paragraph l are raised to A.introduce the topic B.give two examplesC.compare different opinions D.get answers from readers52.What does showrooming mean in the text?A.Trying in shops and buying online.B.Showing products in a room.C.Buying something in a store.D.Shopping on the Internet.53.According to Amy Cashman,which is not the reason for showrooming?A.The lack of time.B.The comfort of the sofa.C.The shortness of money. D.The security of the product .54.What can be inferred from Paragraph 4 ?A.Online shops will disappear.B.Free gifts will surely promote sales.C.Shops need necessary changes.D.Shops will be replaced by online shops.55.The author's attitude towards showrooming isA.critical B.neutral C.supportive D.casual【参考答案】51—55、AABCCC【四川省2014高考英语仿真模拟试题】DInstead of hitting the beach, fourteen high school students trade d swimming suits for lab coats last summer and turned their att ention to scientific experiments.The High School Research Program offers high school stud ents guidance with researchers in Texas A&M’s of and Life Sci ences. Jennifer Funkhouser, academic adviser for the Departm ent of Rangeland Ecology and Management, directs this four-week summer program designed to increase understanding of r esearch and its career potential.Several considerations go into selecting students, including g rades, school involvement and interest in science and agricultur e. And many students come from poorer school districts, Funkh ouser says. “This is their chance to learn techniques and do ex periments they never would have a chance to do in high school. Warner Ervin of is interested in animal science and learned how to tell male from female mosquitoes. His adviser, Craig Co ates, studies the genes of mosquitoes that allow them to fight a gainst malaria and yellow fever. Coates thought this experience would be fun and helpful to the high school students.The agricultural research at A&M differs from stereotypes. It’s molecular(分子)science on the cutting edge,” Funkhouser says. The progra m broadened students’ knowledge. Victor Garcia of hopes to b ecome a biology teacher and says he learned a lot about chemistry from the program.At the end of the program, the students presented papers on their research. They’re also paid $600 for their work— another way this program differs from others, which often charge a fee. Fourteen students got paid to learn that science is fun, that a griculture is a lot more than milking and plowing and that resear ch can open many doors.43. The research program is chiefly designed for ________ .A. high school advisers from HoustonB. college students majoring in agricultureC. high school students from different placesD. researcher s at the of and Life Sciences44. It can be inferred from the text that the students in poorer ar eas________.A. had little chance to go to collegeB. could often take part in the programC. found the program useful to their futureD. showed much interest in their high school experiments45. When the program was over, the students________.A. entered that collegeB. wrote research reportsC. paid for their researchD. found way to make money46. What would be the best title for the text?A. A Program for Agricultural Science StudentsB. A Program for Animal Science StudentsC. A Program for Medical Science LoversD. A Program for Future Science Lovers【参考答案】43-46CCBD较难题目特训:科普知识类Do you know how it is when you see someone yawn and you st art yawning too? Or how hard it is to be among people laughing and not laugh yourself? Well, apparently it’s because we have mirror neurons (神经元) in our brains.Put simply, the existence of mirror neurons suggests that every time we see someone else do something, our brains imitate (模仿) it, whether or not we actually perform the same action. This explains a great deal about how we learn to smile, talk, walk, da nce or play sports. But the idea goes further: mirror neurons not only appear to explain physical actions, they also tell us that th ere is a biological basis for the way we understand other people .Mirror neurons can undoubtedly be found all over our brains, bu t especially in the areas which relate to our ability to use langua ges,and to understand how other people feel. Researchers have found that mirror neurons relate strongly to language. A group of researchers discovered that if they gave people sentences to li sten to (for example: “The hand took hold of the ball”) , the sam e mirror neurons weretriggered as when the action was actually performed (in this example, actually taking hold of a ball) . Any problems with mirror neurons may well result in problems with behavior. Much research suggests that people with social and behavioral problems have mirror neurons which are not full y functioning. However, it is not yet known exactly how these di scoveries might help find treatments for social disorders. Research into mirror neurons seems to provide us with ever mo re information concerning how humans behave and interact (互动) . Indeed, it may turn out to be the equivalent (相等物) for neuroscience of what Einstein’s theory of relativity was f or physics. And the next time you feel the urge to cough in the c inema when someone else does—well, perhaps you’ll understand why.1. Mirror neurons can explain .A. why we cry when we are hurtB. why we cough when we suffer from a coldC. why we smile when we see someone else smileD. why we yawn when we see someone else stay up late2. The underlined word“triggered”in the third paragraph probabl y means“”.A. set offB. cut offC. built upD. broken up3. We can learn from the passage that mirror neurons .A. relate to human behavior and interactionB. control human physical actions and feelingsC. result in bad behavior and social disordersD. determine our knowledge and language abilities4. What is the passage mainly about?to find mirror neurons. B. Problems of mirror neurons.C. Existence of mirror neurons.D. Functions of mirror neurons. 【参考答案】15.CAAD2015高考英语阅读理解暑假练习(4)及答案阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
