balance between my ambition and the expectation from my parents who were not rich...But what I feared most of myself at your age was not poverty,but failure.The fact that you are graduating from Harvard suggests that you know little about failure,you might be driven by a fear of failure quite as much as a desire for success.Steve Jobs,Stanford UniversitySometimes life’s going to hit you in the head with a brick.Don’of your life,and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work,and the only way to do great work is to love what you do.If you haven’t found it

deaths could be avoided according to the scientists.For the health of the planet,they say the same diet will reduce (减少) greenhouse gases and save more land,water and animals.This new food plan is the result of a three-year project organized by The Lancet health journal.Tim Lang,a professor at Britain’s University of London.He said,“The food we eat and how we produce it decide the health of people and the planet.”Lang added,“The world’s population is expected to grow to 10 billion people by 2050.If we want to feed everyone,we all need to change what we eat and the way we eat by improving food production and reducing food waste.”So,what do you eat on the “planetary health”diet?The scientists who created the “planetary health”diet say it is largely plant-based but still has a little milk,fish and meat.The diet calls for cutting down red meat and sugar by 50 percent and increasing nuts,fruits,and vegetable.Walter Willet of Harvard University in the United States also talked about the “planetary health”diet.He said,“More than 800 million people around the world do not get enough food while many more people have very unhealthy diets.”The scientists think it difficult to reach their aim.But for them,doing nothing is also not a choice.Willet said,“If we can’t make the best diet,it’s better to try and get as close as we can.”12.What decides the health of people and the planet according to Tim Lang?A.The taste of the food.B.The number of population.C.The climate and our living conditions.D.The food we eat and the way we produce it.13.What does the “planetary health”diet

nothing than fail.D.It is impossible to make it.15.What is the best title for the text?A.Humans Health Is Very Important.B.Many People don’t Get Enough Food.C.A New Kind of Diet may Save the

Megan Piphus Peace is one of them: In late 2021, she became the show’s first full-time black woman puppeteer, playing a 6-year-old black girl named Gabrielle. Last month, she officially left her real estate career. “I always dreamed of working in television, but I never imagined myself being on Sesame Street,” she says.Piphus Peace, now 29, grew up watching Sesame Street. As a young child, she considered the puppets to be her companions, not realizing until she was older that they weren’t real. She has been pursuing puppeteering since then. At Vanderbilt University, where she studied economics, she was known as the “Vanderbilt Ventriloquist (腹语表演者).” She even appeared on The Tonight Show in 2012 and America’s Got Talent in 2013.One of Piphus Peace’s teachers, Leslie Carrara-Rudolph, who played the Sesame Street character Abby Cadabby in 2006, says that Piphus Peace is a gifted storyteller and natural leader. “To say that I was amazed by Megan would be an understatement,”Carrara-Rudolph says. “I was inspired by her loving heart, strength of character, humor, humanity and what an energetic creative force she is.”Although Piphus Peace submitted her first video audition (试演) to Sesame Street in 2017, she didn’t hear back until 2020, when Matt Vogel, the puppet captain of the show, reached out to her. “She comes from a different kind of puppetry background than most of other Sesame Street puppet performers,” Vogel says. “We went to college to learn puppetry, or acting schools, etc., but Megan learned the art of ventriloquism by herself.”4．What do we know about Piphus Peace?A．She used to work in television.

A．She is a self-trained ventriloquist. B．She is the most popular performer. C．She has played many different characters. D．She is the only female actress in the show.Reading books can obviously make you a better, smarter entrepreneur. According to a 2018 study of over 160,000 adults in 31 countries, the more books that were present in participants’ childhood homes, the more competent they now were as adults with skills in literacy, mathematics, and technological problem-solving. Researchers note that book-oriented socialization, indicated by home library size, equips youth with lifelong tastes, skill and knowledge.Growing up with home libraries boosts adult skills in literacy, numeracy and technological problem-solving beyond the benefits acquired from parental education or your own educational or occupational attainment. Kids who grow up in a home where reading is valued and modeled are more likely to be good readers. Strangely enough, though, advanced education doesn’t necessarily offset the “lots of books in the home” advantage. Adults who grew up with relatively few books in their homes and later earned a college degree had literacy levels approximately equal to adults who grew up in homes with large libraries but only attended school for nine years.Jessica Stillman [of Inc.] writes, surrounding yourself with more books than you could ever read says good things about your mind. Those books serve as a constant reminder of all the things you don’t know — which helps keep you intellectually hungry and curious. And possibly, this will keep you a little more modest, since research shows the quicker you are to admit you don’t know something, the faster you can then learn it. As Jeff Bezos says, a key sign of intelligence is the willingness to change your mind, something that only happens if you’re willing to admit that your current thinking may not be the best thinking. Modesty, learning and the willingness to change your mind when new data presents itself: That’s another three bonus every entrepreneur can benefit from.8．What does paragraph 1 mainly talk about the research?A．Tough process. B．Inspiring discovery.C．Numerous data. D．Advanced technology.9．Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “offset” in paragraph 2?A．Compete with. B．Differ from. C．Go against. D．Compensate for. 10．Why does the author mention Jessica?A．To keep readers intellectually hungry. B．To stress the significance of modesty.C．To remind readers of their ignorance. D．To evidence the benefits of home library.11．What is the passage mainly about?A．Home library size indicates lifelong skills. B．Home reading equals to a college degree.C．Modesty makes a promising entrepreneur. D．Childhood libraries lead to adulthood success.The Gold Coast family holidays are always great fun whether you are from Australia or from abroad. There are beautiful beaches, adventure parks, nature parks and so much more.There are so many sights to see here. It is a pity to drive in a car and you’ll miss a great part of it. Australia is home to many animals and birds that can only be seen when moving slowly and going into the areas that they live.When you are on a bicycle, you have the strength of being able to stop whenever you want to see an interesting animal or bird that you have never seen before. It is a quieter mode (方式) of transportation as well, so you might even be able to take a picture. When you are on the beach, you can breathe that clean air and view the beauty of the water and sand. It is a totally different experience from either simply sunbathing or passing it in a car.There are many choices of hiring a bicycle to experience the Gold Coast attractions. There are stores that will fit a bike perfectly to your size. These bikes for both adults and children are in many styles and colors to please any taste. If you have ever wanted to try a tandem bike (双人单车), now is your chance, because they have those too.A bicycle hire on Gold Coast is something that everyone should try at least once. This is a wonderful chance for anyone who likes to cycle and it is also a cheap way to travel with your family.12．You’d better not drive in a car on Gold Coast because ________.A．you will break the traffic rulesB．you will cause much noiseC．you can’t enjoy the beautiful sights wellD．you can’t drive into some parks13．The following advantages of hiring bikes are mentioned EXCEPT that ________. A．you can take photos of animalsB．it is a cheap way of travelingC．you can get a clearer sight of animalsD．it is a good way to do sunbathing14．Which of the following words has the same meaning as the word underlined in the third paragraph?A．advantage B．weakness C．appearance D．disadvantage15．What is paragraph 4 mainly about?A．How to hire bikes on Gold Coast.B．What kinds of bikes there are in stores.C．What bikes are the most popular.D．Who can hire bikes on Gold Coast.二、七选五Is Fresh Air Really Good for You?We all grew up hearing people tell us to “go out and get some fresh air.” 16 According to recent studies，the answer is a big YES，if the air quality in your camping area is good.17 If the air you’re breathing is clean-which it would be if you’re away from the smog of cities-then the air is filled with life-giving, energizing oxygen.If you exercise out of doors, your body will learn to breathe more deeply, allowing even more oxygen to get to your muscles (肌肉) and your brain.Recently, people have begun studying the connection between the natural world and healing (治愈). 18 In these places patients can go to be near nature during their recovery. It turns out that just looking at green, growing things can reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and put people into a better mood (情绪).Greenery is good for us. Hospital patients who see tree branches out their window are likelyto recover at a faster rate than patients who see buildings or sky instead. 19 It gives us a great feeling of peace.20 While the sun’s rays can age and harm our skin, they also give is beneficial Vitamin D．To make sure you get enough Vitamin D—but still protect your skin— put on sunscreen right as you head outside. It takes sunscreen about fifteen minutes to start working, and that’s plenty of time for your skin to absorb a day’s worth of Vitamin D．A．Being in nature refreshes us.B．But is fresh air really as good for you as your mother always said?C．Fresh air cleans our lungs.D．So what are you waiting for?E．Another side benefit of getting fresh air is sunlight.F．All across the country, recovery centers have begun building Healing Gardens.G．Just as importantly, we tend to associate air with health care.三、完形填空Music can make us happy, peaceful or sad.

湖北省高一下学期期末考试英语试卷(附带答案)
湖北省高一下学期期末考试英语试卷(附带答案）一、阅读理解Have your ever tried podcasts(播客)? If you wish to feel happier, or just learn random things, click here. Here are some of the most exciting podcast series that can help you through your learning journey.Ten percent happierIt was created after Dan Harris, a journalist, had a panic attack on live national television. This led him to try meditation to heal. During this journey, he wrote the book 10% Happier, which talks about the stages of his development. After the book became a best-seller, Dan Harris created the podcast, inviting special guests, such as meditation teachers and scientists to talk about personal development.Delicious ways to feel betterElla Woodward is known as a writer and businesswoman who owns the blog “Deliciously Ella”. She approaches a sensitive subject about our relationship with food. This podcast can help you fix your negative food experiences with positive ones, which can result in enjoying all types of food in moderation and respecting your body’s natural hunger cues.Power hourSometimes, it’s challenging to see our true value within ourselves, which stops us from improving. If you’ve been down lately, you may want to check out this podcast. “Power Hour” was created by Adrienne Herbert, a wellness professional. She talks about motivation, trends, career paths and anything about self-improvement. Professionals are invited to discuss important matters.Routines and rutsSometimes, keeping your habits in place when life is putting you down is not that easy. “Routines and Ruts” can help you make a significant change in your life. The podcast is produced by Madeleine Dore, a writer who likes to explore how we can spend our days in a balanced way that includes both productivity and relaxation. She also has some interesting guests.1．Where is this text probably taken from?A．A travel brochure. B．A website.C．A course plan. D．A scientific report.2．Which podcast is targeted at people who are interested in diet advice? A．Power hour. B．Ten percent happier.C．Routines and ruts D．Delicious ways to feel better. 3．What do the four podcasts have in common?A．They are based on popular books.B．They often invite famous professionals.C．They are all created by experienced writers.D．They may contribute to our personal growth.“Towards thee I roll, thou all-destroying but unconquering whale; to the last I grapple with thee; from hell’s heart I stab at thee; for hate’s sake I spit my last breath at thee.” Captain Ahab’s dying declaration of defiance (抗争) is among the most famous passages in Herman Melville’s novel.In reality, such victories of the hunted over the hunter were a fantasy in the cruel world of industrial whaling. The biggest cetacean of them all, the blue whale, had all but disappeared from the Southern Ocean by the time a ban on hunting it was introduced in 1967.Sightings of the largest mammal ever to live on the earth had been rare in the region since then. Not any more. A survey of coastal waters around the island of South Georgia in the sub-Antarctic has had remarkable results.In just over three weeks, in the krill-rich waters of what was once their main feeding ground, the movements of 55 Antarctic blues were recorded by the British Antarctic Survey. The finding was described as “truly, truly amazing” by one cetacean specialist. It suggests that when a comprehensive audit (审计), due in 2021, is carried out, there is a good chance that the species will prove to be in full recovery mode, as are humpbacks and other whales in the southern hemisphere.Three years ago, the Natural History Museum established a 25m skeleton (骨架) of a blue whale and named it Hope, intending to inspire new generations to builda sustainable future.The return of the world’s most splendid ocean travellers to southern waters should serve as an example for wider possibilities of conservation. Ecological wrongs can be righted, or at least mitigated, with sufficient will and organisations.The more general comeback of the whale - for which environmental campaigners should take a great deal of credit — can be an inspiration for victories yet to be won. It could also act as an added motivation to action on the climate emergency. 4．What’s the author’s purpose of mentioning the famous passage in Herman Melville’s novel?A．To describe a hunter’s bravery. B．To introduce the topic of the text. C．To stress the popularity of the novel. D．To offer information about whale hunting.5．Why was a 25m skeleton of a blue whale named Hope?A．To attract tourists to visit the museum.B．To show the unkindness of whale hunters.C．To motivate humans to live harmoniously with nature.D．To call on people to pay attention to the blue whales’ habitat.6．What does the underlined word “mitigated” in paragraph 6 probably mean? A．Developed. B．Promoted. C．Reduced. D．Solved.7．What’s the best title of the text?A．The blue whales’ comeback B．The cruelty of industrial whaling C．The importance of protecting whales D．The sustainable development of the Antarctic areaDuring its 300 or so years in Britain, tea has changed from the exotic (异国情调的) to the ordinary. Historians like to ask why the Industrial Revolution took place here in the 18th century and not elsewhere in Europe or Asia. Several historians argue that sugar played a significant role in fulling workers. Could it be that sweet, boiled water with a mildly addictive plant produced a healthier as well as more energetic population just when England needed labour? That appears to be the caseput forward by Francisca Antman, an economist at the University of Colorado.It is not a new thesis, but Professor Antman provides the first quantitative evidence that tea drinking powered the Industrial Revolution, by increasing the health of workers. Her study reveals that the practice of boiling water for tea lowered death rates by 25% in lower water-quality areas. This “accidental improvement”, she argues, occurred just as people were moving into cities, where the crowding together would otherwise have led to serious epidemics. Instead, the country possessed a healthy pool of labour needed for industrialisation.One of the key moments that shifted tea from a luxury good to a mass market drink came, the Antman paper argues, in 1784 when the tea tax was cut from 119% to 12.5% at one stroke. By the end of the century, even the humblest farmer drank tea twice a day. The East India Company also muscled out an opponent — coffee — by pushing its tea in the home market. Tea gardens made the drink a cultural custom, as did the worker’s tea break.Professor Antman argues, “Why England experienced a decline in death rates over this period without an increase in wages, living standards, or nutrition can be explained in part by the widespread adoption of tea as the national drink and increased consumption of boiled water”.8．What do we know about Professor Antman’s study?A．It offers statistical proof. B．It presents a new thesis.C．It focuses on work efficiency. D．It figures out labour demand. 9．What do the underlined words “accidental improvement” in paragraph 2 refer to? A．The decline of death rate. B．The removal of epidemics.C．The popularity of tea drinking. D．The process of moving to cities. 10．What can we infer from paragraph 3?A．Tea was ill-received by farmers. B．Coffee made push into British market. C．Tax cut made tea an affordable product. D．Workers enjoyed tea breaks in gardens.11．What can be a suitable title for the text?A．British Tea, from Exotic to Ordinary B．A Cup of Tea, a British Cultural GeneC．Why the British Drink So Much Tea? D．How Tea Affects Industrial Revolution?One way to prevent anxiety from getting out of control is to recognize its benefits. It is a mistake to think that we can make better decisions if we keep our feelings under control.Instead,a mix of feelings like anxiety and logical thinking leads to sound decision-making. There is plenty of research showing that higher levels of anxiety can make us more likely to avoid risks in our decision-making.There is also evidence that anxiety can increase the attention you pay to relevant information.Recent studies have shown that people who are anxious about their relationships (for example,they fear to be abandoned) tend to be better at recognizing people who tell lies and are more likely to raise the alarm when danger approaches.In the real world though, it’s worth realizing that feeling anxious for a while is very common.It helps you communicate with others that you care about, and what’s more, it’s probably a sign that you are intelligent. At least two published studies have identified that people who score higher on measures of anxiety also tend to perform better on intelligence tests. This seems reasonable: If you’re a thinker, you are sure to be always thinking about the future and imagining possible plots, including bad ones.The important thing, if you are a person likely to worry, is not to let your fear destroy your dreams. And don’t bury your head in the sand. Instead, act on your fears - do research as well as preparation.So rather than walk blindly into what you fear, why not meet challenges in full readiness?When anxiety beats you, or casts a shadow over your life, this is a serious problem.No one is denying that. But like everyday anxiety of this kind that you feel before a presentation or interview,you needn’t see it as your enemy. Anxiety is an important feeling，developed through evolution(进化).As for people who are fairly anxious by nature, there is a reason to cheer,too.Your nerves are a sign of your watchfulness. Listen to them and act on them. Then you can turn your nervousness into your advantage.12．What can we infer about anxiety from paragraph 1?A．It enables us to be more focused.B．It stops us from thinking logically.C．It makes us more willing to take risks.D．It contributes to bad decision-making.13．What can be learned about anxious people?A．They sense danger in advance.B．They score higher in tests.C．They prefer to interact with strangers.D．They tend to be thoughtful about future.14．How should we deal with anxiety in the author’s opinion?A．By regarding it as our enemy.B．By taking action to control it.C．By making use of it properly.D．By treating it as a minor feeling.15．What does the passage focus on?A．Effective ways to prevent anxiety.B．Unexpected benefits of anxiety.C．Tips on how to keep a good mood.D．Misunderstandings about anxiety.二、七选五Grieve Her Mum Through CookingGrief and mourning can be expressed in many ways. 16 . She found comfort through cooking her mother’s recipes in a planner and in turn, learned about her mother. Her attitude to life was mirrored in her cooking.Along with the love of food and family, her mother, and her grandmother before her, had passed down a carved wooden spoon.

Now she is holding the spoon, adding the spices and still looking up from the stove to her mum. 20 .A．It was never easy to lose someone we loveB．She was guiding her through a lifetime of foodC．When it reached Debbie, it was worn and perfectD．She felt a sense of achievement in cooking her foodE．She is always going to be her mother’s kitchen followerF．Debbie found a new and unique way to mourn her mumG．However, she was left with some confusion at some recipes三、完形填空Jane Eyre and a bestselling Japanese thriller.

福建省福州第一中学2023-2024学年高一下学期期末考试英语试题
福建省福州第一中学2023-2024学年高一下学期期末考试英语试题一、阅读理解If you are a fruit grower — or would like to become one — take advantage of Apple Day to see what’s around. It’s called Apple Day but in practice it’s more like Apple Month. The day itself is on October 21, but since it has caught on, events now spread out over most of October around Britain.Visiting an apple event is a good chance to see, and often taste, a wide variety of apples. To people who are used to the limited choice of apples such as Golden Delicious and Royal Gala in supermarkets, it can be quite an eye opener to see the range of classical apples still in existence, such as Decio which was grown by the Romans. Although it doesn’t taste of anything special, it’s still worth a try, as is the knobbly(多疙瘩的) Cat’s Head which is more of a curiosity than anything else.There are also varieties developed to suit specific local conditions. One of the very best varieties for eating quality is Orleans Reinette, but you’ll need a warm, sheltered place with perfect soil to grow it, so it’s a pipe dream for most apple lovers who fall for it.At the events, you can meet expert growers and discuss which ones will best suit your conditions, and because these are family affairs, children are well catered for with apple-themed fun and games.Apple Days are being held at all sorts of places with an interest in fruit, including stately gardens and commercial orchards(果园). If you want to have a real orchard experience, try visiting the National Fruit Collection at Brogdale, near Faversham in Kent.1．What can people do at the apple events?A．Attend experts’ lectures.B．Visit fruit-loving families.C．Plant fruit trees in an orchard.D．Taste many kinds of apples.2．What can we learn about Decio?A．It is a new variety.B．It has a strange look.C．It is rarely seen now.D．It has a special taste.3．What does the underlined phrase “a pipe dream” in Paragraph 3 mean?A．A practical idea.B．A vain hope.C．A brilliant plan.D．A selfish desire.4．What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A．To show how to grow apples.B．To introduce an apple festival.C．To help people select apples.D．To promote apple research.Anyone who experienced wet weather this summer will not be surprised to learn that this marks the fourth straight year the UK has endured a wet summer, a first in modern rainfall records dating back to 1914. This summer was only slightly wetter than usual, with the UK receiving 248.5 mm (9.78 inches) of rainfall — 10 percent above average, according to Met Office figures.The national rainfall average painted an interesting weather picture. Rain tended to fall in heavy showers, triggering flash floods. As a result, East Anglia in eastern UK experienced its third wettest August with more than double the normal rainfall, while the South East had one of its dullest Augusts, with only two-thirds of its usual sunshine. Yet, both areas had been dry and sunny for the previous five months and seemed to be heading for a long-lasting drought. In contrast, western and northwestern areas had the opposite experience — extremely wet in July, followed by a dry August. Remarkably, the North West had suffered from such a prolonged drought that it led to hosepipe (软水管) bans.Although some weather companies predicted an extremely hot barbecue summer, temperatures were only 0.6℃ above average across the UK. Even so, the first half of this summer saw Glastonbury enjoy a mud-free festival and Wimbledon remain hot and dry. While it didn’tbreak any temperature records, there were plenty of opportunities for barbecues this summer. 5．What was unusual about the weather in the UK this summer?A．It was rainy for the fourth summer in a row.B．It was the hottest summer on record.C．It had the least amount of sunshine ever.D．It had the biggest imbalance across the country.6．What contributed to the weather patterns this year?A．The long-lasting drought.B．The geographic factors.C．Sudden heavy rain.D．Small amounts of sunshine.7．What can be inferred from the last paragraph of the passage?A．People in Glastonbury celebrated a mud festival freely.B．Some weather companies did not give an accurate forecast.C．The western part of the UK was extremely wet in August.D．The extreme hot weather this summer led to fewer barbecues.After a sleepy Saturday morning on my son Andrew’s 15th birthday, I drive him to a shoe shop near our home in Toronto to get a pair of sandals. We time the trip to arrive right when the store opens. Andrew has difficulties speaking and prefers to go shopping when it’s not busy.“Size 41 of those black slip-on sandals, please,” I tell the two clerks at the shop when we arrive. Andrew slips his socked feet into the shoes. A perfect fit. We box them up and pay. Then I hold up his letter board.For 10 years, Andrew has used a picture chart to communicate. The images represent important and common words: people, places, food, greetings and activities. Years ago, we discovered that Andrew could communicate more than just his basic needs with a letter board. He can point to the letters and spell out words, statements, thoughts.Therefore, instead of using the “thank you” symbol on his picture chart, Andrew points to each letter, one by one: “Thank you.” When we look up, they are wide-eyed. One of the staff speaks up, “Can I ask you what that is? Because I have a brother-in-law who doesn’t talk.”This is what happens when we show up — by showing our true selves — in our strengths and our “scantiness”. We invite others into our humanness, and we allow them to share theirs. “Letme give you my contact information. I will teach you this method,” I continue. I ask the shop assistant about his brother-in-law, Jason is 30 and doesn’t speak, but he can do a lot for himself. Still, no one really knows him.“Amazing!” I say. “We’ve met people who started using this method when they were 50 or 15 or five! Andrew, what do you think?” Andrew starts pointing to letters: “Tell Jason he will change everyone’s opinion of him in 26 letters.”We are all moved, inspired, and thrilled. “Wow,” the clerk says, “Thank you.” Andrew smiles. This is how it happens, how we impact another person’s life in a split second: by delicately leading with our own.8．What do we know about Andrew from the first two paragraphs?A．He enjoys shopping on weekends.B．He has a habit of arriving on time.C．He likes less crowded places better.D．He prefers wearing sandals with socks on.9．What does the author intend to do in paragraph 3?A．Introduce a new topic.B．Give an example.C．Show a solution.D．Provide a reason.10．What does the underlined word “scantiness” in paragraph 5 probably mean?A．Advantages.B．Weaknesses.C．Characters.D．Embarrassments. 11．What does the author want to convey in the last paragraph?A．Accept disabled people as they are.B．Respect a man and he will do the more.C．You will succeed as long as you keep doing it.D．A little kindness goes a long way.In the 1950s, British historian Northeaster Parkinson came up with a concept which was later known as Parkinson’s Law of Triviality. It says that the amount of time spent discussing an issue in an organization is oppositely connected with its actual importance.Parkinson’s Law of Triviality is also known as “bike-shedding (车棚)”, after the story Parkinson uses to illustrate it. He asks readers to imagine a financial committee meeting to discussa three-point agenda. The points are as follows: A proposal for a £10 million nuclear power plant;A proposal for a £350 bike shed; A proposal for a £21 annual coffee budget.What happens? The committee ends up running through the nuclear power plant proposal in little time. It’s too advanced for anyone to really dig into the details. The discussion soon moves to the bike shed. Here, everyone’s an expert. In the end, the committee runs out of time and decides to meet again to complete their analysis.Bike-shedding happens because the smaller a matter is, the more people will have an opinion on it, even when there is no genuine value to add. When something is outside of our circle of capability, like a nuclear power plant, we don’t even try to express an opinion. But when something is understandable, everyone wants to show that they know about the topic at hand.How can we avoid bike-shedding? The main thing you can do is to have a clear purpose. Priya Parker, the author of The Art of Gathering: How We Meet and Why It Matters, says that any successful gathering needs to have a focused purpose. “Specificity,” she says, “is a key element.”When it comes to choosing your list of invitees, Parker writes, “if the purpose of your meeting is to make a decision, you may want to consider having fewer cooks in the kitchen.” Getting the result you want — a thoughtful, educated discussion about that power plant — depends on having the right people in the room.12．Which one actually takes up the most time in Parkinson’s imaginary financial meeting?A．The story used to illustrate the solution.B．The nuclear power plant proposal.C．The bike shed proposal.D．The coffee budget proposal.13．What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?A．What requires more effort may get less attention.B．The more you know, the less you speak.C．What is simple for you may be tough for others.D．The more you put in, the better your result will be.14．What does the author suggest for a successful meeting?A．Taking different opinions into account.B．Setting a specific time limit before the meeting.C．Spending less time in discussing the minor issues.D．Avoiding inviting people with little relevant knowledge.15．What does the text mainly talk about?A．An important element in decision-making.B．A nuclear power plant dilemma.C．Why we call for an effective meeting.D．Why we tend to focus on small matters.Have you ever wondered why it feels so satisfying to sing in the shower? You are alone. You are warm. The air is moist (潮湿的), making your throat feel comfortable. 16 You’re at once relaxed and pleasantly energized by the water. Little can take you away from the simple tasks at hand. You control the speed and pitch. And the bathroom provides wonderful resonance (共鸣).Now imagine singing while driving. You are sitting, stuck by a tight seat belt that limits airflow. Without any warm-up, you probably start right in with the first song you hear. The air is drier. And to stay awake, you may be drinking coffee, which can make you thirsty. 17 While singing along to the radio, your voice may get lost in the noise of the song and the car.From my personal experience, I realize the importance of not only focusing but also setting the right conditions during practice. 18 This is why some argue against baseball players practising hitting before a game. They try hitting different types of throws, even slower ones that they wouldn’t see in a real game.19 To warm up, I practise deep breathing exercises and relax my tongue with “blah blah blahs.” Brightening my face helps make my sound more energetic. My voice becomes richer and stronger when I practise opening up my mouth by yawning, imagining the back of my mouth expanding like a frog’s. I also adjust the way I stand. 20A．As a saying goes, practice makes perfect.B．The stress of driving and staying safe keeps you tense.C．I always try to recreate the great feeling of singing in the shower wherever I am.D．You are standing up straight.E．You are annoyedly clearing your throat.F．Poor training may lead to poor results.G．After all, an upright guitar wouldn’t sound right if it was bent.二、完形填空The summer heat hit me as soon as I got off the flight. No 21 people from Rio take a week off for this happy occasion. I could feel it already — the Carnival was in the 22 !To experience the 23 of the Carnival for myself, I went to a street party.24 , I arrived just in time — the show was about to begin as I took my 25 in the merry crowd.

The Carnival current carried us through the ever-growing sea of people, dancing 33 . The smell of roasted meat filled the air as we 34 wave after wave of street stands.

AWhy is pink or purple a color for girls and blue or brown for boys?The answer depends largely on cultural values as well as personal experiences. To the Egyptians, green was a color that represented the hope and joy of spring, while for Muslims, it means heaven. Red is a symbol of good luck in many cultures. In China, children are given money in a red envelope to bring good fortune in the New Year. For many nations, blue is a symbol of protection and religious beliefs. Greek people often wear a blue necklace hoping to protect themselves against evils（灾祸）.People’s choice of colors is also influenced by their bodies’ reactions （反应）toward them. Green is said to be the most restful color. It has the ability to reduce pain and relax people both mentally and physically. People who work in green environment have been found to have fewer stomach aches.Red can cause a person’s blood pressure to rise and increase people’s appetites（食欲）. Many decorators will include different shades of red in the restaurant. Similarly, many commercial websites will have a red “Buy Now” button because red is a color that easily catches a person’s eye.Blue is another calming color. Unlike red, blue can cause people to lose appetite. So if you want to eat less, some suggest that eating from blue plates can help.The next time you are deciding on what to wear or what color to decorate your room, think about the color carefully.1.

He planted vegetables, fruit trees and even kept bees for honey.And every week he cleaned Old Man McColgin's chicken house in exchange for manure(肥料). The Smell really burned the inside of your nose. When we complained about the terrible smell, Dad said the stronger the manure, the healthier the crops, and he was right. For example, just one of his cantaloupes filled the entire house with its sweet smell, and the taste was even sweeter.As the vegetables started coming in, Dad threw himself into cooking. One day, armed with a basket of vegetables, he announced he was going to make stew(炖菜).Dad pulled out a pressure cooker and filled it up with cabbages, eggplants, potatoes, corns, onions and carrots. For about half an hour. the pressure built and the vegetables cooked. Finally, Dad turned off the stove, the pot began to cool and the pressure relief valve sprayed out a cloud of steam. If we thought Dad's pile of chicken manure was bad, this was 10 times worse. When Dad took off the lid, the smell nearly knocked us out.Dad carried the pot out and we opened doors and windows to air out the house. Just how bad was it? The neighbors came out of their houses to see if we had a gas leak!D etermined, Dad filled our plates with steaming stew and passed them around it didn’t look that bad, and after the first wave had shut down my ability to smell, it didn’t offend the nose so much, tasty, and we drank up every last drop of soup.5.Why did Dad clean Old Man Mocolgin’s chicken house regularly?A.

But a new study suggests they used a little rock‘n’roll. Long-ago builders could have tied wooden pole s to the stones and rolled them across the sand, the scientists say.“Technically, I think what they’re proposing is possible,” physicist Daniel Bonn said.People have long puzzled over how the Egyptians moved such huge rocks. And there’s no obvious answer. On average, each of the two million big stones weighed about as much as a large pickup truck. The Egyptians somehow moved the stone blocks to the pyramid site from about one kilometer away.The most popular view is that Egyptian workers slid the blocks along smooth paths. Many scientists guess workers first would have put the blocks on sleds(滑板). Then they would have dragged them al ong paths. To make the work easier, workers may have made the path slippery(滑的) either with wet clay or with the fat from animals. Bonn has now tested this idea by building small sleds and dragging heavy objects over sand.Evidence from the sand supports this idea. Researchers found small amounts of fat, aswell as a large amount of stone and the remains of paths.However, physicist Joseph West think there might have been a simpler way , led the new study . West said , “I was inspired while watching a television program showing how sleds might have helped with pyramid construction . I thought , ‘Why don’t they just try rolling the things？’ “A square could be turned into a rough sort of wheel by attaching wooden poles to its sides , he realized . That , he notes , should make a block of stone “a lot easier to roll than a square”.So he tried it.He and his students tied some poles to each of four sides of a 30-kilogram stone block. That action turned the block into somewhat a wheel. Then they placed the block on the ground.They wrapped one end of a rope around the block and pulled. The researchers found they could easily roll the block along different kinds of paths. They calculated that rolling the block required about as much force as moving it along a slippery(滑的)path.West hasn’t tested his idea on larger blocks, but he thinks rolling has clear advantages over sliding. At least, workers wouldn’t have needed to car ry animal fat or water to smooth the paths.12. It’s widely believed that the stone blocks were moved to the pyramid site by ______.A. rolling them on roadsB. pushing them over the sandC. sliding them on smooth pathsD. dragging them on some poles13.W hat does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 7 refer to?A. Rolling the blocks with poles attached.B. Rolling the blocks on wooden wheels.C. Rolling poles to move the blocks.D. rolling the blocks with fat.14. Why is rolling better than sliding according to West ?A. Because more force is needed for sliding.B. Because rolling work can be done by fewer cattle.C. Because sliding on smooth road is more dangerous.D. Because less preparation on path is needed for rolling.15. What is the text mainly about ?A. An experiment on ways of moving blocks to the pyramid site.B. An application of the method of moving blocks to the pyramid site.C. An argument about different methods of moving blocks to the pyramid site.D. An introduction to a possible new way of moving blocks to the pyramid site.第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，共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。
