Here are some ways to master it.Recite and repeat in conversation.When you hear a person's name, repeat it. Immediately say it to yourself several times without moving your lips. You could also repeat the name in a way that does not sound forced or artificial.Ask the other person to recite and repeat.You can let other people help you remember their names. After you've been introduced to someone, ask that person to spell the name and pronounce it correctly for you. Most people will be pleased by the effort you're making to learn their names.Admit you don't know.Admitting that you can't remember someone's name can actually make people relaxed. 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.21. How will most people feel when you try hard to remember their names?A. They will be moved.B. They will be annoyed.C. They will be delighted.D. They will be discouraged.22. If you can't remember someone's name, you may ____.A. tell him the truthB. tell him a white lieC. ask him for pityD. ask others to help you23. When you meet a group of people, it is better to remember_____.A. all their namesB. a couple of names firstC. just their last namesD. as many names as possible24. What does the text mainly tell us?A. Tips on an important social skill.B. Importance of attending parties.C. How to make use of associations.D. How to recite and repeat names.BThe year 2009 is the Year of Ox. 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 "beats 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.25. 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 economy26. 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 month27. 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.28. 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.高二英语寒假作业30分钟限时训练题2一、完型填空We arrived in Spain for the first time a few weeks ago.

A. For B. Or C. But D. So二、阅读理解ASometimes, 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 thisheat 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 ground-water, 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.21. 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. he Dutch engineer's system has been widely used.D. Heat can also be collected from asphalt roads.22. 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.23. 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 summer24. 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.25. Which of the following is true of the membership card?A. Its number is 10865 305305.B. It belongs to Mr. E. M. Driscoll.C. It is valid through the year of 2010.D. It gets the owner a discount when used.26.

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.21. 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 earth22. 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.23. 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 patterns24. What might be the best title for the text?A. How to Save Rainforests.B. How to Protect Nature.C. Rainforests and the Environment.D. Rainforests and Medical Development.BHow I Turned to Be Optimistic I began to grow up that winter night when my parents and I were returning from my aunt's house, and my mother said that we might soon be leaving for America. We were on the bus then. I was crying, and some people on the bus were turning around to look at me. I remember that I could not bear the thought of never hearing again the radio program for school children to which I listened every morning.I do not remember myself crying for this reason again. In fact, I think I cried very little when I was saying goodbye to my friends and relatives. When we were leaving I thought about all the places I was going to see—the strange and magical places I had known only from books and pictures. The country I was leaving never to come back was hardly in my head then.The four years that followed taught me the importance of optimism, but the idea did not come to me at once. For the first two years in New York I was really lost—having to study in three schools as a result of family moves. I did not quite know what I was or what I should be. Mother remarried, and things became even more complex for me. Some time passed before my stepfather and I got used to each other. I was often sad, and saw no end to ―the hard times. ‖My responsibilities in the family increased a lot since I knew English better than everyone else at home. I wrote letters, filled out forms, translated at interviews with Immigration officers, took my grandparents to the doctor and translated there, and even discussed telephone bills with company representatives.From my experiences I have learned one important rule: Almost all common troubles eventually go away! Something good is certain to happen in the end when you do not give up, and just wait a little! I believe that my life will turn out all right, even though it will not be that easy. 25. How did the author get to know America?A. From her relativesB. From her motherC. From Books and picturesD. From radio programs26. Upon leaving for America the author felt .A. confusedB. excitedC. worriedD. amazed27.

She 5 being in front of other people. She was very 6 at school. She had never thought she was good enough at anything to 7 much attention. She stayed mostly to herself, making 8 friends.

Remember all the plays you used to act our for us?‖Her mother wouldn’t let the 12 drop. “You’re just a little scared (害怕) .Everyone gets scared. You know you 13 do it. The trick is to look past the 14 to find the love of what you’re doing.’’So Roberta had made an appointment (预约) with the head of the Drama Club. She had read the play and found herself excited by the 15 of speaking such rich words. In secret she practiced Portia’s part, 16 the lines by repeating them over and over. It wasn’t hard; she 17 every minute of it. Every time she spoke the words, she had a new 18 of the lines, as if Shakespeare had written Portia on many levels.On the day of the audition, she 19 two of Portia‘s famous speeches for the auditors.

They‘re ordinary folks like you and me.But am I good enough?I was once where you might be now. My thoughts of writing had been pushed down by self-doubt, and I didn't know where to turn for help.Then, I accepted a free offer from the Institute to test my writing aptitude(潜能), and it turned out to be the inspiration I needed.The promise that paid offThe Institute made the same promise to me that they will make to you, if you show basic writing ability:You will complete at least one manuscript(手稿)suitable to hand in to a publisher by the time you finish our course.I really didn't expect any publication before I finished the course, but that happened. I sold three stories. And I soon discovered that was not unusual at the Institute.Since graduation, I have authored 34 nationally published children's books and over 300 stories and articles.Free test and brochureWe offer a free aptitude test and will send you a copy of our brochure describing our recognized home-study courses on the basis of one-on-one training.Realize your writing dream today. There's nothing sadder than a dream delayed until it fades forever.Sincerely.Kristi Holl,Instructor Instituteof Children'sLiterature21.

Kristi Holl mentions her experience mainly to ____.A. prove she is a good instructorB. Promote the writing programC. Give her advice on course preparationD. Show she sold more stories than articlesBHow Room Designs Affect Our Work and FeelingsArchitects have long had the feeling that the places we live in can affect our thoughts, feelings and behaviors, But now scientists are giving this feelings an empirical(经验的, 实证的)basis. They are discovering how to design spaces that promote creativity, keep people focused, and lead to relaxation.Researches show that aspects of the physical environment can influence creativity. In 2007, Joan Meyers-Levy at the University of Minnesota, reported that the height of a room‘s ceiling affects how people to think. Her research indicates that the higher callings encourage people to think more freely, which may lead them to make more abstract connections. Low ceilings, on the other hand, may inspire a more detailed outlook.In addition to ceiling height, the view afforded by a building may influence an occupant‘s ability to concentrate. Nancy Wells and her colleagues at Cornell University found in their study that kids who experienced the greatest increase in greenness as a result of a family move made the most gains on a standard test of attention.Using nature to improve focus of attention ought to pay off academically, and it seems to, according to a study led by C. Kenneth Tanner, head of the School Design &Planning Laboratory at University of Georgia. Tanner and his team found that students in classrooms withunblocked views of at least 50 feet outside the window had higher scores on tests of vocabulary, language arts and maths than did students whose classrooms primarily overlooked roads and parking lots.Recent study on room lighting design suggests that dim(暗淡的)light helps people to loosen up. If that is true generally, keeping the light low during dinner or at parties could increase relaxation. Researchers of Harvard Medical School also discovered that furniture with rounded edges could help visitors relax.So far scientists have focused mainly on public buildings. “We have a very limited number of studies, so we’re almost looking at the problem through a straw(吸管), ”architect David Allison says. “How do you take answers to very specific questions and make broad, generalized use of them? That‘s what we're all struggling with. ‖24. What does Joan Meyers-Levy focus on in her research?A. LightB. CeilingsC. WindowsD. Furniture.25. The passage tells us that____.A. the shape of furniture may affect people, s feelingsB. lower ceilings may help improve students‘ creativityC. children in a dim classroom may improve their gradesD. Students in rooms with unblocked views may feel relaxed26. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph probably means that _______.A. the problem is not approached step by stepB. the researches so far have faults in themselvesC. the problem is too difficult for researchers to detectD. research in this area is not enough to make generalized patterns高二英语寒假作业30分钟限时训练题5一、完型填空In the clinic, I asked if Michael could be retested, so the specialist tested him again. To my 1 ,it was the same score.Later that evening, I 2 told Frank what I had learned that day. After talking it over ,we agreed that we knew our 3 much better than an IQ(智商)test.

(15)Unit 3 Food and Culture——2021-2022学年高二英语人教版(2019)寒假作业第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分50分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
AChinese food is considered to be the biggest cultural exchange between China and other countries. The following dishes are special each in their own way.Peking DuckThis famous dish can be found at restaurants all around Beijing. High-class restaurants take this dish so seriously that some even have their own duck farms and use only a special kind of duck for their specific Peking Duck dish. Peking Duck is famous for its thin skin and delicious meat, which is highly popular among all foreigners, including foreign celebrities and leaders.WontonWonton, called "Huntun" in Chinese, is a highly appreciated dish in China. Since China is a country of many nationalities and different cultures, each region has their own shapes for wontons. Wontons are usually boiled and served in soup, but they can also be deep-fried.DumplingsDuring the Spring Festival, Chinese families will get together and have dumpling parties. It is said that the dish was invented by Zhang Zhongjing, one of the finest Chinese physicians in history. Dumplings have a 1,800-year-long history, which is why it is one of the most popular traditional foods in China and extremely popular in Western countries. They may be cooked by boiling, steaming, simmering, frying or baking.Egg-fried RiceFirstly from China's ancient western regions, egg-fried rice has now become part of Chinese people's daily food. It is famous for its pleasant smell, soft taste and handsome appearance, and one can easily find this popular dish anywhere in China, from high-class hotels to family-run restaurants on the street. While it is fairly easy to make, there are some points that should be kept in mind: use left-over rice rather than newly cooked rice for better taste. Additionally, before frying, the rice should be churned up.1. Which of the following may have its own farm?A. Restaurants serving wontons.B. Restaurants serving Peking Duck.C. Restaurants serving dumplings.D. Restaurants serving egg-fried rice.2. What makes dumplings so popular in China and Western countries?A. The long history.B. The different shapes.C. The special taste.D. The unique style of cooking.3. What can we learn about egg-fried rice?A. It tastes better if cooked with newly made rice.B. It first appeared in the northern part of China.C. It is served in restaurants of different classes.D. It was invented by an ancient Chinese physician.BFood poems, like love poems, have the potential to be vague and sad. The New York Times' description of a book of food poetry refers to Winston Churchill's supposed declaration, "Take away this pudding. It has no theme." This, of course, is a sad comment on food. Yes, eating can be mere gluttony(暴饮暴食) at times—we've all had late-night chocolate or thoroughly enjoyed McDonald's breakfast hash browns(土豆煎饼). In fact, writers like Daniel Orozco paint poetic pictures of sorts of foods, the thrill and shame of junk food.Food poetry can be unbelievably described, inspiring feelings of pleasure and homesickness in the same way as eating does. It can also be straightforward or playful—just like food itself. Shell Silverstein's Italian Food starts off with "Oh, how I love Italian food/I eat it all the time/Not just 'cause how good it tastes/But 'cause how good it rhymes," and continues in rhyming couplets (对句) for the remainder of the poem.Other food poems—certainly the best ones—have layers of complexity that are slowly revealed like eating a perfectly assembled sandwich or drinking skillfully mixed drink. Henrick Ibsen's Tea—A Comparison From Love's Comedy begins with a pleasant garden gathering but quickly delves into(探究) the scenery and politics of Eastern nations, from which the tea was imported. Still other food poems are simple collections of the poet's most beloved meal, like Carlos Williams' loyalty to caviar(鱼子酱), For Viola: De Gustibus. He writes, "Beloved you are/Caviar of Caviar/Of all I love you best/O my Japanese bird nest/" Similarly, Jonathan Swiftdeclares his love for mutton in the emotional cooking poem: How I Shall Dine.Kevin Young, the editor of The Hungry Ear, a collection of food poetry published last year, explains poets' love for food, "One of the things I think poets enjoy about a great meal is that it goes away... that you make a terrific meal for friends and family, and if you succeed, it's gone."1. What can be inferred from the first paragraph?A. Winston Churchill doesn't like puddings.B. Food poems and love poems are the same.C. Eating is a bad subject in terms of poetry.D. Many people like junk food despite its harm.2. Why does the author refer to Shell Silverstein's poem?A. To suggest that Shell Silverstein is the best poet.B. To prove that food poems have some complexity.C. To show that food poetry can be straightforward or playful.D. To show how Shell Silverstein likes Italian food.3. Henrick Ibsen's poem in the third paragraph is one that ________.A. slowly reveals some complexityB. introduces where tea was importedC. was referred to as the best food poemD. talks about a pleasant garden gathering4. Who writes about his favorite food?A. Henrick Ibsen.B. Carlos Williams.C. Kevin Young.D. Shell Silverstein.CBeijing is no stranger to Western food. American restaurants like McDonald's and KFC have brought more Western dishes to the local food scene in recent years. Now, two new restaurants have joined them.In August, Taco Bell and Shake Shack opened their doors to eager customers in Beijing. Taco Bell is a popular American fast food restaurant that features Mexican food. Hard and soft-shell tacos are a staple (招牌) of the menu; they are generally served with beef, lettuce and tomato. And of course there are burritos—chicken, beef or beans wrapped in a tortilla(墨西哥薄馅饼). However, there are new menu items that are special to the Beijing location, such as the Yang Berry Freeze and Avocado Oolong Tea.Shake Shack, known for its traditional American-style hamburgers and milkshakes, is also serving up dishes that won't be found in branches outside of the capital. Harry Wang, who studied in the US, visited the restaurant soon after it opened. "The last time I had Shake Shackwas more than a year ago when I was in the United States," Wang said. "The food is pretty similar to what we had in the United States, but there is a milkshake exclusive to Beijing."The milkshake Wang referred to is the Hutong Hawthorn. The shake mixes hawthorn, a traditional Chinese snack, into a milkshake, a common ice cream drink in Western fast food. The Beijing Shake Shack also offers roasted chestnut ice cream.Both restaurants also reflect elements of Chinese culture in their decorations. Shake Shack's windows feature cartoons showing hutong life, and Taco Bell has a picture of a palace from the Temple of Heaven on one of its walls.From the design to the menus, the two restaurants are "adding a touch of local flavor", noted China News.1. Why are McDonald's and KFC mentioned in the first paragraph?A. To show the popularity of Western food in Beijing.B. To lead up to the topic of new Western restaurants in Beijing.C. To compare the differences between McDonald's and KFC.D. To express the author's personal love for Western food.2. What can we know about Taco Bell?A. It is a traditional Mexican restaurant.B. It has the same menu around the world.C. It is a popular Mexican food restaurant in China.D. It is a fast food restaurant serving Mexican food.3. What does the underlined word "exclusive" in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Special.B. Ordinary.C. Important.D. Acceptable.4. What does the article tell us about Taco Bell and Shake Shack?A. They try to keep the original characteristics in all locations.B. They will probably have more customers than KFC.C. They make changes to the menu for Chinese people's tastes.D. They like to work together with Chinese restaurants.DThe bad health effects of sleep loss during the week can't be repaid by longer weekend sleep, according to a new study.Researchers have long known that sleep deprivation(剥夺) can cause weight gain and increase other health risks. But for those who force themselves out of bed every weekday after too few hours of shut-eye, they hope turning off the alarm on Saturday and Sunday will repay the weekly sleep debt and remove any ill effects.The research, published in Current Biology, crushes those hopes. Despite complete freedom to sleep during a weekend recovery period, people in a sleep lab who were limited to five hours of sleep on weekdays gained nearly three pounds over two weeks and experienced disorders that would increase their risk for diabetes over the long term. While weekend recovery sleep had some benefits after a single week of sleep loss, those gains were wiped out when people fell right back into their same sleep-deprived schedule the next Monday."If there are benefits of catch-up sleep, they're gone when you go back to your daily schedule. It's very short-lived," said Kenneth Wright, director of the sleep and chronobiology (生物钟学) lab at the University of Colorado at Boulder. "These health effects are long-term. It's kind of like smoking once was—people would smoke and wouldn't see an immediate effect on their health, but people will say now that smoking is not a healthy lifestyle choice. I think sleep loss is in the early stage of where smoking used to be."Wright said that the study suggests people should put sleep in the first place—cutting out the "sleep stealers" such as watching television shows or spending time on their phones. Even though people don't have a choice about losing sleep because of child-care responsibilities or job schedules, they should think about getting sleep in the same way they would get a healthy diet or exercise.1. What do the researchers find about weekend recovery sleep?A. It is common among people.B. It will make people healthier.C. It can make people put on weight.D. It's able to make up for the sleep loss.2. What does the underlined word "crushes" mean?A. Arouses.B. Guarantees.C. Deepens.D. Ruins.3. What will Kenneth Wright agree with?A. It takes long for people to see the effects of sleep loss.B. Smoking and sleep loss have the same bad effects.C. Weekend recovery sleep has many benefits.D. Smoking is more harmful than sleep loss.4. What does Kenneth Wright advise people to do?A. Sleep as long as possible during weekdays.B. Watch some TV shows before bedtime.C. Reduce the screen time before sleep.D. Take regular exercise every day.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5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。

But you must go there yourself to feel its true size and beauty. The Grand Canyon is one of the greatest natural wonders of the world.The Colorado River formed the Grand Canyon over millions of years. Slowly, the river cut down through hard rock. At the same time, the land was rising. Today, the canyon is one and a half kilometers deep and 445 kilometers long. The oldest rocks at the bottom of the canyon are more than 1 billion years old. The width varies from about 200 meters to 29 kilometers across. The rim from or top of the canyon is about 2,300 meters above sea level on the South Rim, and about 3,000 meters on the other side, the North Rim. As a result, there are different kinds of plants and animals on opposite sides of the canyon. The South Rim is dry desert country. The North Rim has tall forests.The canyon looks different at different times a day, and in the different seasons and weather. At sunrise and sunset the red, gold, brown, and orange colours of the rocks are especially clear and bright. In winter, the canyon is partly covered with snow.The view from the South Rim of the Grand Canyon is the best. Most visitors come to the South Rim and stay in campgrounds or hotels. Every point along the canyon’s eage offers a different view.The North Rim of the Canyon is quieter. It takes all day to drive there from the South Rim because there is only one bridge across the Colordo River. On the way, you go through Navado Indian lands, and a colourful pink desert called ”the Painted Desert”.Y ou can walk down into the Grand Canyon, or you can go down on the back of a mule(小型电动汽车) . Y ou can also take a boat trip down the Colorado River, and camp on the beaches at night. But whether you see the Grand Canyon from thr top or the bottom, it will be an experience that you will never forget.21.The best way to feel the size and beauty of the Grand Canyon is___________________________.A.to see it photographsB.to listen to the report about itC.to travel there yourselvesD.to watch its TV programs22.What made the Grand Canyon?A.The earthquakeB.The water from the Colorado RiverC.The American proplrD.The strong wind23.The sea level on both sides of the Grand Canyon is __________________________.A.the sameB.changing with timeC.variousD.very low24.From the passage we can know that the _________ of the canyon is different atdifferent time.A. lengthB. sceneC. widthD. height。

Don't I _______ _______ ______ on the matter?I am a college student now!三.阅读理解AJust over a year ago, my iPhone was picked. My first thought was to replace it. But I stopped myself and asked a question: Does owning a smartphone make my life better, or worse? I decided to try living for a time without a smartphone. So I bought an old, $30 flip phone and began my post-smartphone life.One day after I made the switch, my wife, daughter and I were in Washington visiting a museum. By afternoon, I started acting like a true addict. I used my wife's smartphone to check Gmail. The initial rush of seeing so many unread emails was spoiled ( 破坏) by a work-related message. For the next half-hour or so, I walked around thinking about that message instead of being present at the museum. I was physically there, but my mind was focused on work.The most immediate advantage of not owning a smartphone, I quickly learned, is the ability to immerse( 沉浸) yourself in social situations. Without a smartphone to look at, you don't have much of a choice but to be present, and other people — whether it's a colleague ( 同事) or a stranger on social media — can't enter your life easily at inconvenient times. So I made my short-term experiment permanent.Do I miss Google Maps? Kind of, but I've also discovered that not having it makes driving safer. I now check a map before I leave the house and write down basic directions. This keeps me focused on the road rather than the phone. If I get lost, it's nice to ask people for directions. What about Uber and Lyft? Not having them has encouraged me to ride my bike more, which has been great for my health and saved me hundreds of dollars. On the subject of money: My phone bill is now down to $30 a month. I have no data plan, no expensive phone to make payments on, no apps to buy.1. Why did the author buy the old phone?A. To save money.B. To reduce the risk of losing it.C. To break his smartphone addiction.D. To experience a smartphone-free life.2. What happened to the author at the museum that afternoon?A. He couldn't help accessing the Internet.B. He couldn't send his work-related email.C. He was urged to handle work immediately.D. He was prevented from destroying a work of art.3. What is the last paragraph mainly about?A. The disadvantages of Google Maps.B. The functions of three different apps.C. The benefits of not using a smartphone.D. The difficulties of not having a smartphone.BWhen you think of a national park, you generally picture fresh air and wild animals, right? Well, now you're going to have to add tea shops and something called “the Underground” to your definition (定义), because London, England has signed up to be the first “National Park City.”London was founded by the Romans around 2, 000 years ago and people have continually lived there since then. In all that time, however, nobody had the idea to replace all the parks with big box stores or high buildings, which means London already has a much lower urban density (密度) than most of the world's cities. Nowadays about a third of the city is green space.In July 2019, London announced its willingness to become the world's first National Park City. Now the city is moving toward the goal of achieving 50% green space by the year 2050 by connecting and increasing public parks, greening unused parking lots and the private yards of existing and new houses, and fixing some green roofs on existing buildings.“Encouraged by the aims and values of our rural (乡村的) national parks, the London National Park City is basically about making life better in the capital through both small everyday things and long - term thinking,”Daniel Raven-Ellison, who began the movement to make London a National Park City six years ago, said. “We've been doing that in London for centuries, which is why London is so green.” It's about going further to make the city greener, healthier and wilder; making the city richer in wildlife.London will have a much easier job achieving this type of green transformation ( 转变 ) than more densely-urbanized cities like Paris and New York, which have 10% and 27% green space, respectively. But that doesn't mean it's not possible — the National Park City Foundation hopes to include 25 more cities in addition to London by the year 2025. Glasgow, Scotland and Newcastle upon Tyne in northeast England are both considering becoming National Park Cities.4. What makes London more likely to become a National Park City than other cities?A. Its smaller population.B. Its locals' requirements.C. Its government's strict law.D. Its wider area of green space.5. What does Daniel try to talk about in the fourth paragraph?A. The values of newly-founded parks.B. The importance of his movement.C. The influence of green space on cities.D. The preparation for setting up a movement.6. What would be the best title for the text?A. London is leading the world in park constructionB. London becomes the world's first National Park CityC. London is listed as the world's most-visited cityD. London has built the world's first underground parkCWhen someone asks me what I do first thing in the morning I feel ashamed. Then, I have to shamefully admit that I turn my alarm off on my phone and scroll (滚屏) through WeChat. Before I've even had the chance to brush my teeth or wash my face I'm already right away attracted by whatever people are doing online. And I know it needs to change.But the last time I was asked this question was about two months ago and have I changed my ways? Not even a little bit. We all know how unproductive social media can be. So why is it so easy to get addicted to (沉溺于) a huge mass of pretty pictures, and funny behavior and ideas? And why is it so hard to change? Lisa Lewis, a doctor in Brookline tells me the answer is simple. “It's because the point of these apps is to keep you looking,” she says. “They want you to buy, and get you to follow and like. Their only purpose is to win your attention.”She says you must have a purpose when it comes to using any social media apps. “Don't just go on and scroll,” she explains. “Just like you wouldn't walk up to the refrigera tor and stare at what's inside for no reason, don't do the same with social media.” If social media is reducing your productivity and overall health, Lewis offers these steps:First, set a goal whenever you use a social media app. If you use WeChat to get inspiration to exercise, do that and then get off it. Next, you can use a timer. These days you can set a timer for how many hours a day youspend on social media. Set it and stick to it. And finally, you can create a prize to strengthen the behavior. When you set that timer and stick to it, positively strengthen the behavior with anything from tasty food to things you've been eyeing on Amazon.7. What can we say about the author according to Paragraph 1?A. She is shy about answering others' questions online.B. She cares little about other people's life.C. She works busily early in the morning.D. She is a heavy user of social media.8. Why is it difficult to beat the addiction mentioned in Paragraph 2 according to Lewis?A. The apps are aimed at attracting users.B. Social media are a good way to kill time.C. People want to communicate with friends.D. Online information is key to most people's life.9. Why does Lewis mention the refrigerator?A. To show how attractive social media could be.B. To discuss why social media reduce productivity.C. To explain one should use social media when necessary.D. To prove some content of social media is useful.10. What does the underlined part “the behavior” refer to?A. Drawing inspiration from social media.B. Using social media according to a timer.C. Trying to save money when shopping online.D. Learning to pay no attention to things you badly want.DWhen is a kid not a kid anymore? If you asked my 12-year-old daughter, the magical age would be 13, when you can no longer be considered a “child.” If you asked my 15-year-old niece, the age would be 16, when she will be able to drive a car and get an after-school job. According to the U. S. government, a child officially becomes an adult when they turn 18. That's when they can vote. But even though an 18-year-old starts paying taxes, the government does not consider that person mature enough to buy a beer. Still, even a kid who can buy a beer is not old enough to rent a car.Scientists have learned from a new study that when kids are around 18, their prefrontal cortex, which helps control impulses ( 冲动), solve problems, and organize behavior, is only halfway developed. That's not to say that kids in their late teens and early 20s can't take on these tasks, but it means that it's harder for them to do so — at least until around age 25 or so when this area of the brain fully develops.“What we're really saying is that to have a definition (定义) of when you move from childhood to adulthood looks absurd,” Peter Jones from the University of Cambridge said. “It's a much more nuanced (微妙的) change that takes place over thirty years.”This isn't a news flash for parents who have watched their teens take crazy risks while seeming unable to get their lives together until they're older. But this information throws new light on the way kids without as much support are treated. In the foster (寄养的) care system, once a child turns 18, he can no longer receivestate-backed support. And many people think this is too early for a teen to be on his own, especially a teen who has experienced a painful childhood. Because of this, some foster care advocates (提倡者) think it makes more sense for 25 to be the new legal age of adulthood.11. What does the author want to show us in Paragraph 1?A. Different age groups have different needs.B. Becoming an adult means you can do a lot of things.C. People have different opinions on becoming an adult.D. Children need to learn basic life skills to become an adult.12. What might be the purpose of the study?A. To explain why teenagers are at risk.B. To suggest a way of helping teenagers develop.C. To explore the characteristics of different age groups.D. To discover when the human brain is fully developed.13. What does the underlined word “absurd” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Impossible.B. Invaluable.C. Unreasonable.D. Uninteresting.14. What influence may the study have?A. It may inspire teens to be independent.B. It may allow a 20-year-old to get government support.C. It may drive the government to protect the foster care system.D. It may encourage parents to stop supporting their children at college.四.七选五The age of majority is the age that children become adults by law. This means that they are legally in control of their own actions and decisions. 1. ________ When used this way, the word “majority” means having the necessary number of years to be considered an adult. The opposite is “minority”, which means bein g a minor or child.2. ________ The law in a given place may never actually use the words “age of majority”. The age of majority is a legally fixed age and idea of adulthood which is different in different places. It may not match the actual maturity of a person's body or mind. The age of majority is 18 in most places.3. ________ Once a person reaches the age of majority, there are some things they can do that they could not do before. These may include voting, buying or drinking alcohol and driving cars on public roads. The ages when these things can be done are different.4. ________Even after a person reaches the age of majority, they cannot do whatever they want to immediately. 5.________ For example, the youngest a person is allowed to purchase alcohol is 21 in all U. S. states even though the age of majority is 18 in most states. The age of majority in the Republic of Ireland is 18, but a person must be over 21 years old to stand for election.五.完形填空You could say young Moziah Bridges has a gift for fashion, but it's more than that.

He suddenly found himself at twenty-four the most famous novelist of his day. Busy as his social life was, he worked on two novels at the same time-Oliver Twist and Pickwick Papers. He was particularly proud of Pickwick, which was a huge success and was regarded as a comedy (喜剧)masterpiece(杰作). “If I were to live a hundred years and write no vels in each, I should never be so proud of any of them as I am proud of Pickwick Papers,” he said.It has been said of Dickens that he grasped(抓住)the imagination of his readers because his imagination grasped himself. The people in his works were so real that they could make him laugh or cry. When writing Oliver Twist he said that he could not rest until Fagin, the wrongdoer(做坏事的人), had been hanged.Dickens’ marriage to Catherine Hagarth, with whom he had nine children, ended unhappily in 1858. He startedto travel about giving readings of his works. His interest in theater gave his novels the qualities that made them suitable for reading aloud on the stage.

He said he wanted to die working.【小题1】Dickens became a famous novelist .A. because his social workB. with the success of Pickwick PapersC. because he was writing two novels at the same timeD. when he began to give readings of his works【小题2】According to this passage, we know that Dickens .A. was only interested in writing novelsB. didn’t like Oliver TwistC. wished to live one hundred years and write three novels in eachD. didn’t think h e could write a better novel than Pick wick Papers in his life【小题3】Fagin must be .A. a person in real lifeB. a character in Oliver TwistC. a character in Pickwick PapersD. one of Dickens’ works【小题4】Which of the following is TRUE?A.

passage below,fill in each blank with the proper forms of the given words to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct.Sports shoes that work out(16) _______their owner has enough exercise to warrant time in front of the television have been devised in the UK.The shoes—named Square Eyes—contain an electronic pressure sensor and a tiny computer chip to record how many steps the wearer has taken in a day.A wireless transmitter passes the information to a receiver(17) _______ (connect)to a television,and this decides how much evening viewing time the wearer deserves,based on the day’s efforts.The design was inspired by a desire to fight(18) _______the rapidly ballooning waistlines among British teenagers,says Gillian Swan,(19) _______developed Square Eyes as a final year design project at Brunel University to London,UK.“We looked at current issues and childhood3overweight really stood out,”she says.“And I wanted to tackle that with my design.”(20) _______a child has used up their daily allowance gained through exercise,the television automatically(21) _______ (switch)off.And further time in front of the TV(22) _______only beearned through more steps.Swan calculated how exercise should translate to television time using the recommended daily amounts of(23) _______.Health experts suggest that a child take12,000steps each day and watchno more than two hours of television.So,every100steps recorded by the Square Eyes shoes(24) _______ (equal)precisely one minute of TV time.Existing pedometers(计步器)normally clip onto a belt or slip into a pocket and keep countof steps by measuring sudden movement.Swan says these can be easily tricked(25) _______ recording steps through shaking.But her shoe has been built to be(26) _______ (hard)for lazy teenagers to cheat.“It is possible,but it would be a lot of effort,”she says.“That was one of mymain design considerations.”Section BDirections:Complete the following passage by using the words in the box.Each word can only beused once.Note that there is one word more than you need.anizationsB.physicallyC.adaptedD.motivatedE.potentialF.issuedG.individualsH.criticalI.participantsJ.typicallyK.involvedYouth sport has the(27) _______to accomplish three important objectives in children’s development.First,sport programs can provide youth with opportunities to be(28) _______active,which can lead to improved physical health.Second,youth sport programs have long been considered important to youth’s psychosocial development,providing opportunities to learn important life skills such as cooperation,discipline,leadership,and self-control.Third,youth sport programs are(29) _______for the learning of motor skills(运动技能);these motor skills serve as a foundation for future national sport stars and recreational adult sport(30) _______.When coachers develop activities for youth practices and when sport(31) _______design youth-sport programs,they must consider the implication of deliberate play and deliberate practice.Research from Telama(2006)states that regular participation in deliberate play or deliberate practice activities during childhood and youth(ages nine to eighteen)increases the likelihood of participation in sports during adulthood by six times for both males and females.Côté(2002)defines deliberate play activities in sport as those designed to maximize enjoyment.These activities are4regulated by flexible rules(32) _______from standardized sport rules and are set up by the children or by an involved adult.Children(33) _______change rules to find a point where their game is similar to the actual sport but still allows for play at their level.For example,children may change soccer and basketball rules to suit their needs and environment(e.g.in the street.on a playing field or in someone’s backyard).When(34) _______in deliberate play activities,children are less concerned with the outcome of their outcome of their behavior(whether they win or lose)than with the behavior(having fun).On the other hand,Ericsson(1993)suggests that the most effective learning occurs through involvement in highly structured activities defined as deliberate practice.Deliberate practice activities require effort,produce no immediate rewards,and are(35) _______by the goal of improving performance rather than the goal of enjoyment.When individuals are involved in deliberate play,they experiment with different combinations of behaviors,but not necessarily in the most effective way to improve performance.In contrast,when(36) _______are involved in deliberate practice,they exhibit behavior.focused on improving performance by the most effective means available.For example,the backhand skill in tennis could be learned and improved over time by playing matches or by creating fun practice situations.However,players could more effectively improve their backhand performance by practicing drills that might be considered less enjoyable. Although the drills used in most effective means available practice might not be the most enjoyable, they might be the most relevant to improving performance.Section BDirections:Read the following three passages.Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)The2012London Olympics had enough problems to worry about.But one more has just been added-a communications blackout caused by solar storms.After a period of calm within the Sun,scientists have detected the signs of a fresh cycle of sunspots that could peak in2012,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 throw5billions of tons of charged matter towards the Earth,causing strong solar storms that could jam the telecommunications satellites and Internet 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 kilometers 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 sunspots.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 are10times 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.37.The phrase"communications blackout"in Paragraph1most probably refers to________during the2012Olympics.A.the extinguishing of the Olympic torchB.the collapse of broadcasting systemsC.the transportation breakdown in LondonD.the destruction of weather satellites38.What can be inferred about the solar activity described in the passage?6A.The most fatal matter from the coronal 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 sunspots declines after coronal mass ejections.39.According to the passage,NASA will launch a satellite to________.A.take images of the solar systemB.provide early warning of thunderstormsC.keep track of solar activitiesD.improve the communications on Earth40.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:Threatenting the Human RaceD.Solar Storms:Human Activities to Be Troubled(B)Elixirwritten by Eric WaltersTwelve-year-old Roth becomes a friend of Dr.Banting and his assistant,Mr.Best, who are in search of a cure for diabetes(糖尿病).She finds herself torn between her sympathy for the animals being experimented on and her friendship with Banting and Best.George Washington Carverwritten by Elizabeth MacleodMeet the"Peanut specialist",George Washington Carver,the inventor and professor who made over325 products out of peanuts.Through his agricultural research,he also greatly improved the lives of countless black farmers in the southern Unite States.

At least until spring arrived,by which time they were dealing with damaging floods.If you fear the heyday of the snowman has passed,don’t worry:I’ve learned that some explosive snowman history is still being made today.Every year since1818,the people of Zurich, Switzerland,celebrate the beginning of spring by blowing up a snowman.On the third Monday of April,the holiday Sechselauten is kicked off when a cotton snowman called the Boogg is stuffed with explosive and paraded through town by bakers and other tradesmen who throw bread to the crowds.The parade ends with the Boogg being placed on a40-foot pile of firewood.After the bells of the Church of St.Peter have rung six times,representing the passing of winter,the pile is lit. When the snowman explodes,winter is considered officially over--the quicker it is burnt down, the longer summer is said to be.45.According to the passage,why did snowmen become a phenomenon in the Middle Ages?A.People thought of snow as holy art supplies.9B.People longed to see masterpieces of snow.C.Building snowmen was a way for people to express themselves.D.Building snowmen helped people develop their skill and thought.46.“The heyday of the snowman”(paragraph4)means the time when______.A.snowmen were made mainly by artistsB.snowmen enjoyed great popularityC.snowmen were politically criticizedD.snowmen caused damaging floods47.In Zurich,the blowing up of the Boogg symbolizes_______.A.the start of the paradeB.the coming of a longer summerC.the passing of the winterD.the success of tradesmen48.What can be concluded about snowmen from the passage?A.They were appreciated in historyB.They have lost their valueC.They were related to moviesD.They vary in shape and sizeV.Translation(15%)49.去年以来,这种商品的价格保持不变。

I' m tired of sitting here. Let's get up and besaved.” So he got up and was saved.Then I was left alone on the mourners' bench. My aunt came and knelt at my knees and cried, while prayers and songs circled, all around me in the little church. The whole room prayed for me alone. And I kept waiting quietly for Jesus, waiting, waiting-but he didn't come I wanted to see him, but nothing happened to me. Nothing!“Langston, why don't you come? Why don 't you come and be saved? Oh, Lamb of God! Why don't you come?”Now it was really getting late. I began to be ashamed of myself, holding everything up so long. I began to wonder what God thought about Westley, who certainly hadn't seen Jesus either, but who was now sitting proudly on the platform, swinging his legs and grinning down at me, surrounded by deacons(教堂执) and old women on their knees praying. God had not struck Westley dead for lying in the temple. So I decided that maybe to save further trouble, I'd better lie, too, and say that Jesus had come, and get up and be saved. So I got up.Suddenly the whole room broke into a sea of shouting, as they saw me rise. Waves of rejoicing swept the place. Women leaped in the air. My aunt threw her arms around me. The minister (牧师)took me by the hand and led me to the platform.When things quieted down, in a hushed silence, interrupted by a few joyous"Amens, "all the new young lambs were blessed in the name of God. Then happy singing filled the room.That night, for the last time in my life but one-for I was a big boy twelve years old-I cried. Icried, in bed alone, and couldn't stop. I buried my head under the quilts, but my aunt heard me. She woke up and told my uncle I was crying because the Holy Ghost had come into my life. but I was really crying because I couldn't bear to tell her that I deceived everybody in the church, that I hadn't seen Jesus, and that now I didn't believe there was a Jesus any more, since he didn't come to help me。

2.The document was discovered ______(掩埋)in the university archives(档案)by part-time history student Lis Smith, who is completing her PhD at St Andrews Institute of Scottish Historical Research. (根据汉语意思填空)【答案】buried【详解】考查过去分词。
句意:这份文件被兼职历史学生李斯史密斯发现埋在大学档案中,她目前正在圣安德鲁斯苏格兰历史研究所攻读博士学位。
空处是过去分词做主语补足语,与逻辑主语document是被动关系,表示被动用过去分词形式,表示被发现的状态。
故填buried。
3.Hospital staff ______(爆发)into cheers after doctors completed a 20-hour operation to have separated one-year-old twins at the head. (根据汉语意思填空)【答案】burst【详解】考查动词时态。
句意:在医生完成了长达20个小时的手术,将一对一岁大的双胞胎头部分开后,医院的工作人员顿时爆发出一阵欢呼。
根据汉语意思“爆发”可知应填动词burst,作谓语,结合后文completed 可知应用一般过去时。

河北省武邑中学2018-2019学年高二英语上学期寒假作业12第一节(共10小题;每小题2分,共20分)阅读下面短文,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。
AThe human beings seem to be facing a crisis (危机). After our best Go players were defeated one by one by the artificial intelligence (AI) AlphaGo, we lost our pride of being at the top of the intelligence chain. And in October, when Saudi Arabia gave citizenship to a robot named Sophia, another privilege of being human was taken away. It looks like everything that separates humans and AI is at risk right now.But we keep hoping that instead of “everything”, there’s still something left in us that makes us irreplaceable.To Hao Jingfang, winner of the 2016 Hugo Award for Best Novelette, that “something” is our consciousness. “AlphaGo is intelligent in a cer tain way, but not intelligent enough to ask the important questions —— Do I like playing Go? Do I want to play Go today? Why do I have to play Go when you tell me to?” she once said. In other words, computer programs don’t have a choice to say “no”. They probably don’t even know what a “choice” is —— all they ever do is calculate.And to He Huaihong, a philosophy (哲学) professor at Peking University, imagination and creativity are also what make us special. “A machine couldn’t have come up with the theory o f gravity just because it was hit by a falling apple”, he said. “It’s human imagination that connects what seem to be completely random and irrelevant concepts, something that a machine——which works by fixed rules only——can't do, at least for now.”This is why BBC reporter Viktor Mayer-Schonberger suggested that instead of focusing on how computers have overshadowed us on calculating abilities than humans, we should probably “consider our quality at a different end of the spectrum (光谱):creativity, originality (原创性), even plain illogical craziness, instead of hard-nosed (顽固的) logic”, he wrote.So maybe in the future, as artificial intelligence becomes even more intelligent, humans and A1 will learn to use each other’s talents for good. If AI can handle the boring tasks like calculating and driving for us, we’ll have more time to create, think, and be busy with “being human”.29. What can we learn about AlphaGo, according to Hao Jingfang?A. It will be taught to say no in the future.B. It will be more intelligent than humans one day.C. It has difficulty answering personal questions.D. It is unable to think independently as humans do.30. What does He Huaihong believe is unique to humans?A. Intelligence.B. Originality.C. The ability to make rules.D. The ability to make choices.31. What does the underlined word “overshadowed” in paragraph 5 probably mean?A. Competed withB. Taken control ofC. Been more successful thanD. Influenced32. What could be the future of AI according to the author?A. It will be used to help humans, rather than compete with us.B. It may develop creativity besides better logical thinking.C. It might be very dangerous to humans in different fields.D. It will be applied to provide driving service for humans.BShortly after my fourth birthday, my parents and I arrived from China in Sydney, Australia. It was 1991 and my mother had left behind everything she knew——family, friends and career.Yet within two years, my parents’ marriage had broken do wn. After one particularly unpleasant fight, my mother left my father, taking me with her. With no family or friends, and in a country where she couldn’t even communicate, she took me to Chinatown, the only area of Sydney she was familiar with. That night she laid me on a bench in Dixon Street, packing suitcases around us for security(安全). I will never forget the despairin her face that night.At around 4 a.m., a group of four young Chinese men noisily exited a club nearby.I remember them falling silent as they saw us. They approached and asked my mother why she was sleeping on the streets with such a young child. My mum burst into tears as she told them our story. Without hesitating, they warmed me up, took our suitcases, and drove us to their students housing.In the weeks that followed, the men looked after us with a youthful enthusiasm. Being poor students living on their own for the first time, they simply knew how to cook in a stupid way. However, they insisted that a child should have homemade meals. They quickly adjusted their lives around us, buying fresh food, cooking, teasing me to make me laugh, and advising my mum on how to sort out her life.Eventually, Mum reconciled (和解) with Dad and we moved back in with him, although they continued to split and make up several times.Gradually we lost touch with the men as we all moved on. But at every milestone of my life——graduations, entering university, getting a good job——I never forget that all of this was made possible because 22 years ago, a group of complete strangers took us in and shared everything they had to save us from life on the street.33. Why did Mom and I stay in Dixon Street that night?A. We were waiting for the Chinese men.B. Mom was unfamiliar with Australia at all.C. It was safe to stay there for night.D. We had no other place to go.34. How did the students feel the moment they saw us in the street?A. Ashamed.B. Shocked.C. Amused.D. Nervous.35. What message is conveyed in the passage?A. There is no perfect husband or wife in marriage.B. It’s the timely help to someone in need that matters.C. It’s a great challenge for the Chinese to study abroad.D. Childhood memory contributes to guiding present behavior.第二节完形填空(共20小题;每题1分,满分20分)阅读下面一篇短文,掌握其大意,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
