My grandma's bedroom was just next to mine and my elder brother's. A fire had broken out there and awakened her. Hearing her scream, my elder brother jumped to action, running from room to room quickly to wake everyone in the house. However, before we could do anything, the fire had consumed(烧毁)the old and wooden house.I stood there shivering(发抖)while the fire destroyed my books, clothes, and toys. I watched helplessly while my Mom cried and my Dad sighed. I wondered what was going to happen to us now that we had lost all of our things. As I looked around, though, I realized something for the first time:What matters aren't things. I saw my elder brother running across the swinging(摇摆的)bridge by our house to get help. I saw my eldest brother who was on crutches(拐杖)from an earlier accident standing unsteadily on one leg. I saw my grandma and dad wrapped in each other's arms and my mum holding our little dog. I realized at that moment that we were all alive. Everything that was essential had survived the fire. Our lives would continue. We would survive without the “stuff” that was burning. We would all be around to love each other for many years to come. And that was all that mattered.I still think of that fire at night. It helped me to become who I am today. It showed me for the very first time what is truly essential in life. It helped me to learn that the love we share is far more important than the things we possess.Live your life then for the things that matter, not for the things you own. Love others. Let the fire inside of you make this world a warmer place. Let your soul shine bright.4. Who first found the house was on fire?A. The author.B. The grandma.C. The elder brother.D. A passer-by.5. What did the author do when they all made it outside?A. Crying and running quickly.B. Sighing and discussing what to eat.C. Shaking and thinking about the future.D. Freezing and trying to find warm clothes.6. What does the underlined word “essential” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. Important.B. Perfect.C. Amazing.D. Unique.7. What could be the best title for the passage?A. We all have each otherB. The magic of a fireC. Growing up with memoryD. Ways to be a better manCIf you" looking for the world's easiest mountain to climb, head to Shouguang, in China's Shandong Province, where you'll find “Jingshan",the smallest mountain in the country, and probably the world. It measures only 0. 6 meters from ground level to its highest point, and can be conquered(征服)with a single step.Jingshan may not be the most impressive mountain in the world, but as the only mountain in Shouguang district, it is a symbol of the region and one of its most popular tourist attractions. Mention of the mountain in the district's official records can be traced back over 100 years, including its precise location and the fact that despiteits laughable size above ground, it seems to be the top of a much larger underground mountain.How deep is Jingshan really? Well, well probably never know as its protected status makes it illegal to dig around it. However, people did try digging it out in the past to prove that it was not a mountain, but a simple rock. After digging several meters without reaching the mountain's underground base, they gave up. Then, in 1958, someone else attempted to dig around Jingshan, but they failed to find its base too, and the seemingly small rock has been recognized (认可)as a mountain ever since.China.o reports that Jingshan has a height of 48 meters, but most of it is underground. The exposed(暴露的)top of China's smallest mountain is just 0. 6 meters high, 1. 24 meters long and just 0. 7 meters wide. You can climb to the top with a single step.Acknowledging(认可)the importance of Jingshan mountain as a tourist attraction, Shouguang authorities have made it illegal not only to dig around it, but also to build any type of structures close to it, or damage it in any way. Photos of Jingshan, China's smallest mountain, recently became popular on Chinese social media, attracting all kinds of humorous comments from people challenging their friends to a mountain climbing contest or complaining that during the summer, the high crops make it impossible to find it.8. What do we know about Jingshan?A. It is just 0. 6 meters high.B. It is the smallest mountain in the world.C. It is the world's easiest mountain to climb.D. It is the most impressive mountain in the world.9. What makes Jingshan a symbol of Shouguang district?A. It has a laughable size.B. It is the only mountain in that district.C. It is the most popular tourist attraction.D. It spreads widely on Chinese social media.10. What was the main reason for people to dig the mountain out?A. They wanted to measure the height of it.B. They wanted to prove it was just a rock.C. They tried to reach its underground base.D. They attempted to protect the base of it.11. What's the main idea of the article?A. China's smallest mountain.B.

2020届高考总复习25分钟限时阅读天天练—第11天完形填空The purpose of a letter of application is to help you to “sell” yourself. It should state 1 the job you want, and should tell what your abilities are and what you have 2 . It should be simple, human, personal and brief without 3 out any necessary fact.In writing a letter of application, keep in 4 that the things a possible employer is most 5 to want to know about are your qualifications (条件), your achievements and your aims.The opening paragraph is perhaps the most important part. 6 the first few sentences fail to 7 the reader’s attention, the rest of the letter may not be 8 at all. Try to key your opening remarks to the needs or interests of the employer not 9 your own need or desires. For example, instead of beginning with “I saw your 10 in today's paper. ”you might say“I have made a careful 11 of your advertising during the past six months” or “I have made a survey in my neighbourhood to find out how many housewives 12 your product and why they like it.”Try to 13 generalities. Be clear about the kind of job for which you are now 14 . College graduates looking for their first positions often ask“ What can I 15 in a letter? Employers want experience, which, naturally, no 16 has. ”The answer is that everything you have ever done is 17 .It is important to write a good strong closing for your letter. 18 a specific request for an interview or give the possible employer something definite to do or expect. An excellent 19 is to enclose(内附)a stamped, self - addressed envelope with your letter.

For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitantsof a country. If tourists create too much traffic, the inhabitants become annoyed and unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely. They forget how much tourism can help the country’s economy. It is important to think about the people of a destination country and how tourism affects them. Tourism should help a country, keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists. Tourism should also advance the wealth and happiness of local inhabitants.Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the country’s ec onomy can suffer.On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs. Businesses can also lose money. It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, air terminals, first- class roads, and other support facilities(配套设施)needed by tourist attractions. For example, a major international class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel lose money.Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotel, electricity, sewers to handle waste, and water. All of these support facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists , jobs and money are lost.21.Which of the following do you think has been discussed in the part before this selection?A. It is extremely important to develop tourism.B. Building roads and hotels is essential.C. Support facilities are highly necessary.D. Planning is of great importance to tourism.22.The underlined word“ inhabitants” (in Paragraph 1 ) probably means________.A. touristsB. passengersC. populationD. citizens23.Too much tourism can cause all these problems EXCEPT ________ .A. a bad effect on other industriesB. a change of tourists’ customsC. over - crowdedness of places of interestD. pressure on traffic24.It can be inferred from the text that ________ .A. the author doesn’t like tourism developing so fastB. local people will benefit from tourist attractionC. other parts of a country’s economy won’t benefit from tourism muchD. we can't build too many support facilities25.The author thinks it is good for local people to know that tourism will ________ .A. waste a lot of moneyB. weaken their economyC. help establish their customsD. help improve their lifeBWhen Andrea Peterson landed her first teaching job, she faced the daunting task of creating a music program with almost no money for equipment or supplies in a climate where standards-based learning was the focus and music just provided a break for students and teachers.For her drive and creativity in overcoming those challenges, she’s been named national teacher of the year.Prin cipal Waynes Kettler said he’s worked with many outstanding teachers in his 22 years as an educator, but Peterson is “just that one step above anybody I’ve ever worked with before.”Kettler and others at Monte Cristo Elementary School talk about the ways she has introduced the learning from other classrooms into her music program and her creativity in working around things such as the lack of money for new music.When students were reading S.E.Hinton’s novel The Outsiders in their regular classroom, Peterson helped them write a 30-minute play with scenes from the book.Then they chose three Broadway tunes that focused on race, equality and social justice, the themes of the book.Peterson composed two other songs herself after classroom discussions about the play and the book.The honor means a lot to residents of Granite Foils.It’s inspiring to know that people from small towns even win national honors.As national teacher of the year, Peterson will spend the more years outside the classroom, as a national and international spokeswoman for education.Not surprisingly, she is a big believer in the value of arts education.

If the break is small, however, the person may not feel much pain at all. If you think that you or someone else has broken a bone, the most important things to do are to stay calm, make the hurt person comfortable, and call the doctor. Do not move the injured body part since movement could make it worse. To treat the break, the doctor will need to take an X-ray. This gives the doctor the information he or she needs to set (接上) the bone: to put it back to its normal place. If the bone is large or it is broken in more than one place, the doctor may need to use metal pins (钢钉) to set it. After the bone has been set, the next step is usually putting on a cast, the special, hard thing that will keep the bone in place for a month or two.Your bones are excellent at healing themselves. Broken bones will produce many newcells (细胞) and tiny blood vessels (血脉). These cover both ends of the broken part, and close up the break until the bone is as whole and strong as before.11.

Bake sales have proven to be highly profitable toward schools with young people because the start-up costs are very small. Allie,a Roslyn High School freshman , agrees that bake sales are needed for school supplies.“l think it’s wrong for schools to ban bake sales because a lot of schools need the money to be raised. Our school could really use the money for new uniforms.”Allie also commented on the bake sales apparent cause of child overweight. “I fe el that it is the student’s choice to eat the baked goods. lf they want it, let them have it.”Jessica,another Roslyn High School freshman, had a different opinion.“I feel that children can not always stay away from items such as cupcakes. It might be better if the amount of bake sales were limited, and only allowed students to buy one item.”New York Education advisors are having trouble coming up with substitute product for students to sell. A plan of advertising healthier foods has come into play. However the department needs to consider if students will go for items like vegetables. Allie and Jessica don’t think so.“Students might not like the healthier foods. This way, the schools are gaining less money.”Allie shares. Another plan to think about is the idea of not selling food products altogether. Alternate programs are being conducted throughout New York schools,such as walk-a-thons, as a healthy way for students to earn money for their schools.21.The new “wellness”policy is declared in order to_______.A. help schools out of budget difficultiesB. reduce child overweight caused by bake foodC. help students save money spent on foodD. reduce the price of bake food sold in schools22. Which of the following statement about Allie is true?A. He is rich in experience about the bake sales at schoo1.B. He agrees to carry out the bake sales ban at schools.C. He attaches great importance to the school’s income.D. He attaches too much importance to students’health.23. According to Jessica, the cupcakes____________A. don’t belong to the bake salesB. shouldn’t be banned at schoolC. mustn’t be sold at schoolsD. can be fully replaced by vegetables24. Which is both healthy and profitable way for schools to earn money?A. The bake sales.B. The vegetables salesC. The walk-a-thons.D. The food product sales.25.

Soon the shoes will have new owners: under privileged children in the United States and 20 other countries, thanks to Woodburn’s Share Our Soles( SOS) charity.A high school track star in the beach town of Ventura, Woodburn was once sidelined for months with foot injuries.“I started thinking about all the things I got from running---the health benefits, the friendships,the confidence,”he says.“And I realized there are children who don’t even have shoes.” Woodburn gathered up his own slightly worn sneakers,then put out a call to teammates.His goal was to have 100 pairs by Christmas .When the count climbed to more than 500 pairs, (“everything snowballed,”he says) he decided to turn the shoe drive into a year-round effort.Back then, the sneakers came from donation boxes and the local sporting goods store and from door-to-door pickups. Woodburn has now set up collection boxes at two high schools and area races. To date, SOS has collected and donated more than 3000 pairs.In just under three years,Woodburn has started three chapters of Share Our Soles:the original in Ventura, another at USC ,and one at the College of the Holy Cross in Massachusetts last January,when a student there wrote asking to get involved.The organization’s website, , keeps and distributes sneakers and sells wrist bands and socks(the money earned from that goes toward new shoes and socks for children).26.

He had to drive home 8 .Several months later, the director of the orphanage came to give a report on Sunday night at my grandfather’s church, 9 Grandpa and his family also attended.“But most of all,” he said, “I m ust thank you for the 10 you sent last year.

On the contrary, a lack of such playin g can create stress for both children and parents, and it also cause obesity (肥胖) when children spend too much time sitting in front of educational videos. The report notes lack of playing could even lead to depression in many children.The reports thinks the lack of playtime lies in the fact that parents want to have super – smartchildren and safe places for children to play is decreasing. A balance between free playing and education activates should be struck, the report sates.“In the current environmen t, where so many parents feel pressure to be super parents, I believe this message is an important one,” said Dr. Kenneth Ginsburg, the report’s lead author and a pediatrician (小儿科医师) at The Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.Noted pediatrician, author, and presenter of cable TV’s “What Every Baby Knows,” DR. T. Betty Brazeltion agreed. Children with structured activities are missing the chance to dream, to make their own world work the way they want it. That to me is a very important part of childhood. 21.From the passage we can see that today’s children really need more .A.enrichment activities B.conventional playtimeC.structured activities D.educational activities22.Which of the following is a proper word to describe today’s children?A.Dull.

Russia and the US, the only two countries to have achieved manned flight, are struggling to keep their new investment, the international space station.But China, which has a long tradition in physics, mathematics and engineering, finds its doctoral graduates welcomed in the US and Europe for decades. And it has been able to learn from 40 years of pioneering successes and mistakes by the USSR and the USA.Space flight is a gamble and the stakes (赌注) are high. If successful, China could become a member of the world's most exclusive club, set up a second home on the moon and get a powerful hand at the strategic bargaining table.Two designers from the Shenzhou III project said that 12 astronauts now are undergoing intensive training. One more unmanned space flight is planned before the first manned launch.Experts say that the Shenzhou spacecraft already provides China with a space vehicle capable of mounting(发起)a lunar program.

高一英语限时练11一、阅读理解AThe Strangest Jobs in the WorldYou may be tired of a 9 - to -5 job. Or you may be looking for something different to do. You won’t believe what some of these people do for a living. Check out these strangest jobs and tell us if you could handle doing any of them.Watching Paint DryThis may be one of the most boring jobs in the world. The paint company hires people to watch paint dry. They need to take note of the changing colors and have to examine the changes under a microscope (显微镜) as well as on the walls.Iceberg (冰山) MoverThis job appeared after the Titanic tragedy (悲剧) in 1912. Iceberg movers remove icebergs and prevent any further accidents. Using satellites and airplanes, the movers search the seas for ice-bergs. And if any are found, they pull the iceberg to an area where it won’t be in the way. Pulling an iceberg can take up to 72 hours. This is because the boat needs ten hours to reach a speed of just one mile per hour.Luggage OrganizerThere are many camp activities for children in New York. Mothers are now inviting luggage organizers to pack their kids’ bags. To hire an organizer costs around US $250 an hour. It can take up to four hours to be fully packed and ready. US $1, 000 to pay somebody to pack your kids’ bags, is it worth it1.What is the aim of the job of an iceberg mover?A.To be in memory of the movie Titanic.B.To test the speed of bats pulling icebergs.C.To prevent any more accidents on the sea.D.To do a search for life in the sea.2.What kind of job is the job of watching paint dry?A.It is very boring and needs patience.B.Its salary is higher than other jobs.C.The employees only need to watch the colors.D.Many creatures are examined under a microscope.3.What can we learn about the job of luggage organizer from the text?A.It is suitable for children to do.B.It is expensive to hire one organizer.C.It is a full-time job.D.It is an easy job.BThe chasm (鸿沟) separating Garang Piol from his dream of attending Cape Town University, the top university of Africa, in 2018 was wide. The former soldier from the Republic of South Sudan needed money to pay tuition.In the years after the war’s ending in 2005, he had worked as an electrician in a school where he found a chance at education. Later, he worked for Atlanta’s Carter Center in South Sudan, helping root out Guinea worm disease. His salary paid for his living expenses and for his education at the Catholic University of Eastern Africa in Kenya, where he earned a degree in sustainable development.David Stobbelaar was in charge of the Carter Center in South Sudan in 2008 when Garang was assigned to his team. Stobbelaar says Garang impressed Carter Center staff with his intelligence, organization and communication abilities. The two became good friends over years and Garang told Stobbelaar his experience of being a soldier.When Stobbelaar was talking in 2015 to Dickstein Hughes, a friend who is a teacher, she was leading her 10th grade English class through a book, A Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Soldier. “I was talking to David about some of my concerns and bringing my students closer to the humanity of the memoir, and he suggested that he could connect me with a former soldier,” she said.Garang soon was answering questions via Internet from the students. His talk was so impactful that Dickstein Hughes continued contacting him for the next three years, became Garang’s friend and came to know of his hopes of coming to Cape Town University for more schooling. Recommended by Dickstein Hughes, Garang was accepted at Cape Town, but the money became the sticking point. Thus Dickstein Hughes and her class started a GoFundMe account, went door to door and held fundraisers. “Life has challenged him time and time again, and Garang has provedhimself time and time again.” Dickstein Hughes said.Now Garang is one year into earning master’s degrees at Cape Town in international development and public health. He is anxious to return home and recreate the process that changed him. “I hope to change the life of others ─ to help them know they have a future,” Garang said. 4.What is the text mainly about?A.A chasm separated a Sudanese soldier from his dream.B.A Sudanese soldier fulfilled his dream with the help of friends.C.A Sudanese soldier realized his dream by telling his stories.D.A former Sudanese soldier hopes to change the life of others.5.What does the author intend to tell us about Garang in paragraph 2?A.He went to school in 2005.B.He managed to get more schooling.C.He did different jobs to make money.D.He made contributions in rooting out Guinea worm disease.6.Why did Garang’s friends like to help him?A.He used to be a soldier.B.He communicated with friends via Internet.C.He received high level education.D.His behavior impressed friends deeply.7.What does the underlined part “sticking point” in paragraph 5 mean?A.Disadvantage.B.Mistake.C.Difficulty.D.Disappointment.CThe Notre Dame (巴黎圣母院) fire has been put out, but its wooden roof have been largely damaged. The terrible accident causes a sudden sharp pain to people around the world, “What a pity that we cannot see the damaged parts of the wonder anymore.”But the good news is that there is at least one way of seeing them, namely via a video game called Assassin's Creed: Unity. In this game, the player can travel to one city after another and enter the buildings exactly like what they are in reality, and see Notre Dame as it was before the fire. In addition, with VR technology, which is already quite mature, one can even look around the undamaged Notre Dame as if it is still there. Maybe digital technology could help to better protectarchitectural cultural heritage (建筑文化遗产).The idea of digitizing ancient buildings, making digital models of them so their data can be saved, dates back to the 1990s and the necessary technology has continued to advance since then. By scanning the ancient buildings with lasers, building 3D models with hundreds of images, as well as measuring (测量) everything precisely, engineers can make a copy as “same” as the real one.As computers and smartphones are hugely popular,the digital replica or digital copy has great pratical value. First, it allows tourists to feel the cultural relics (文物) without touching them, which helps protect them. The virtual tour of Dunhuang Grottoes in Gansu Province is a good example of this as tourists can view the paintings without standing near them. Furthermore, it can make the digitized cultural relics more famous by spreading awareness about them via the Internet. In 2000, a virtual tour of the Great Wall became very popular at the Hannover World Expo, which increased the number of foreign tourists visiting it in the following years. Above all, it preserves all the information of the cultural relics. Even if the original ones are damaged one day, people can still know what they were like and can build a replica if desired.Time is the biggest problem to architectural heritage. Maybe we will have better technologies in the future, but the digital technology offers a practical way to preserve architectural cultural heritage at the moment.8.What can we see about Notre Dame in the video game?A.The big fire.B.Its original look.C.The damaged parts.D.Its wooden shape.9.What will engineers do to create a digital replica of the ancient buildings?A.Improve the technology needed.B.Build 3D models of full size.C.Scan the photos of the buildings.D.Measure all the parts precisely.10.How does the author prove the digital copy has great practical value?A.By comparison.B.By listing data.C.By giving examples.D.By classification.11.What is the best title of the passage?A.The Damage of Notre DameB.The Value of Digital ReplicaC.VR Technology Helps Repair the Cultural RelicsD.Digital Technology Helps Protect Ancient BuildingsDWe’re loving the sea to death. We swim into it, live near it, build beside it, and even imagine about living under the sea. For much of our history, we have turned to “hard engineering” to control the marine environment and manage its influence on us. We build dams, sea walls and channels. But all these efforts seem to fail, because we’ve not been thinking about design of structures with respect to ecology. Some coastal structures create shade, which reduces the growth of seaweed. Bright lights at night contuse species such as turtles. That’s why blue engineering comes in.Johnson, a marine ecologist, is advocating for “blue engineering” — the marine versionof the “green engineering” movement on land that has seen nations like Singapore buildingthe walls and roofs of the concrete jungle with plant life.Researchers with the World Harbour Project are creating tiles similar to the natural structures found on rocky shores with 3D printing technology. These make more attractive homes for marine creatures. Researchers are also actively seeding these tiles with local seaweeds and creatures such as the Sydney rock oyster, which is particularly good at improving water quality. Twelve harbors around the world are taking part in this marine tile experiment, each working with their own unique marine life.It’s a far cry from the days when huge numbers of old tyres were thrown into the sea to build “artificial reefs”. Those early attempts are now costing millions to remove, showingjust how far we have yet to go in understanding how best to co-habit with the underwater world.12.What do we know about “hard engineering”?A.It has improved sea environment.B.It controls the influence of sea well.C.It has failed to achieve its purpose.D.It makes living under the sea possible. 13.What does the underlined word “contuse” in Paragraph 1 mean?A.Injure.B.Heat.C.Defend.D.Involve. 14.Which of the following is a form of “blue engineering”?A.Growing plant life on concrete buildings.B.Building rocky shores with 3D printers. C.Creating an artificial reef with old tyres.D.Building structures benefiting sea creatures.15.What’s the main idea of the passage?A.Two ways of sea engineering.B.The green engineering movement. C.Construction of artificial reefs.D.Research on blue engineering.二、七选五Whether you' re a child, teenager, young adult or are middle-aged, respect for your parents is an important value. Your parents are the people who raised you, devoting time, energy and money to your development. 16.No matter your age is, there are 5 ways to show respect.●Respect their belongings.One important way to show respect is to show regard for the things important to your parents.

Yoga studios are 21 in communities around the country.Is our interest in this ancient practice a passing trend? Or will yoga prove to be a(n) 22 that offers a boost (增强) to kids' health? As the child of a yoga-skilled mother, I decided to 23 further.According to a report, 8.4 percent of kids practised yoga in 2017.

2020年高二英语上学期25分钟限时阅读天天练—第11天阅读理解A Chat OnlineYour friends might be in Australia or maybe just down the road, but they are all just a few clicks away. Life has changed for millions of young people across the world who now make friends online. Whether you use chat-rooms, QQ, MSN or ICQ, you are a member of this group.“I don’t often talk with my parents or grandparents, but I talk a lot with my old friends on QQ,” said Fox’s Shadow, the online name used by a girl student in China. “Most of my classmates use QQ after school.”QQ is the biggest messaging service in China. A record from Tencent, the company which developed QQ, shows that 4 million people used it one Saturday night in October.And probably Fox’s Shadow was one of them. “I log in (登陆) on Friday nights, and Saturday or Sunday when I feel everything around me boring. I usually spend about 10 hours chatting online every week,” she said. “But I never talk with strangers, especially boys or men.”Even though she likes chatting, she is careful about making friends with strangers online. “You don’t know who you are talking to. You should always be careful about whom you believe on line.”Many people would like to meet offline when they feel they have got to be known to someone very well. Fox’s Shadow once met one of her online friends face to face. It was a girl who was a football fan like herself and they went to a football match together.A 16-year-old Beijing boy, named Simon online, dislikes QQ users. “I used to chat on QQ, but I found that most people were talking about foolishthings,” he said. Now he chats online in English, using MSN. “I only chat online because I’ve got friends in Australia, the US and Singapore,” he said. “I want to learn more about foreign cultures.” But he spends little time chatting on QQ as he sees it as a waste of time and money.“If you are really addicted to (上瘾) it, sometimes you can’t give your mind to your lessons,” he said. “And friends in your real life are always more important than those so-called friends you meet online.”56.People meet face to face offline when they think they ______.A. have known each other wellB. have the same interestC. have enough free timeD. have nothing to do57. Fox’s Shadow thinks QQ is _____.A. the biggest messaging service in ChinaB. a good place to spend her time when boredC. a safe place to chat with strangersD. the best place to make friends58.From the passage, we know “…they are all just a few clicks away”means ______.A. it is wonderful to see your friends by clickingB. it is easy and fast to get in touch with your friendsC. it is possible to live much closer to your friendsD. it is popular to make friends online59. Which of the following is the opinion of the Beijing boy named Simon?A. All the people on QQ are talking about foolish things.B. Chatting online can save a lot of time and money than making telephone calls.C. We should always be careful about boys or men online.D. We should think more of our friends in real life.BFriends play an important part in our lives, and although we may think that friendship comes only too naturally, we often don’t clearly understand how to make friends. While we get on well with a number of people, we are usually friends with only a very few--- for example, the average among students is about 6 per person. In all the cases of friendly relationships, two people like one another and enjoy being together, but beyond that, the degree of intimacy( 亲密) between them and the reasons for their shared interests vary(变化) greatly. As we get to know people, we often think about things like age, race, economic condition, social position, and intelligence. Although these factors are not of great importance, it is more difficult to get on with people when there is a marked difference in age and background(背景).Some friendly friendships can be kept on argument and discussion, but it is usual for close friends to have similar ideas and beliefs, the same opinions and interests --- they often talk about “being on the same wavelength”. It generally takes time to reach this point. People who want to be friends have to learn to put up with other s’ bad habits and to stand differences. What is different from marriage about friendship is that there are no friendship ceremonies to strengthen the relation between two people. But the supporting and understanding of each other that results from shared experiences and emotions does seem to creature a powerful bond(契约), which can get over differences in background, and break down barriers(障碍) of age, class or race.60. According to the passage, _____.A. friends are those who must share their interestsB. friends are closer than people who just get on with each otherC.all the people know how to make friendsD. every student has six friends61. We can learn from the passage that ____.A. friendship can overcome all differences between two peopleB. there are no special ceremonies to strengthen friendshipC. standing differences in opinion can lead to friendshipD. friendship can be strengthened by smiles and soft voices62.When people talk about “being on the same wavelength,’they mean that they ____.A. watch the same TV programsB. are the same in all waysC. have the same backgroundD. share the same way of thinking and the same interests63.Which of the following is NOT implied(暗示) in the passage?A. Even friends may have different opinionsB. Friends never argue with each other.C. It generally takes time for people to become close friends.D. Someone’s habits may annoy his friends.CI had my first job at the age of thirteen, when a friend of my mother who owned a bookshop hired me for six hours a week to help her in the shop. I was very proud to earn my own pocket money and my parents never interfered(干涉) with how I spent it, even when I was spending it foolishly. They believed that by earning money, spending it, and learning from the mistakes, I would become more mature and responsible about how to handle work, relationships with others, and money.Like many American parents, my parents also let me and my brothers do thingsover which they worried a great deal. When I was sixteen, for example, after I finished high school and before I entered university, I wanted to spend the summer months traveling around Europe. My mother was against the idea of my traveling alone at such a young age, but my father felt that it would be a great experience for me. In the end, my father won the argument on the condition that I limited my traveling to France, my mother' s home, where I had many uncles, aunts and cousins spread out through the country who could provide shelter and help if I needed them.Three years later, my younger brother decided to take a year off after his first year in university and travel through the United States and the Caribbean. Again my mother was very worried and not eager to see my brother leave school, but my father encouraged him and my brother had a fascinating year working his way on trains and ships to earn passage to different ports and cities, and discovering many fascinating places and people.These kinds of experiences are probably rare for children in many countries but in the US they are fairly common. Most parents start pushing their children at a young age to do small things by themselves. By the time they have finished high school, many American kids have already had part-time jobs, traveled around the US or other countries on their own, have selected the university they plan to attend and maybe even decided on their future career, and so on.64. The writer’s pare nts allowed their kids to travel so that _______.A. it could make the kids become braverB. the kids could earn some pocket moneyC. the kids could find jobs more easilyD. it could bring good to the kids’ future65. The writer thinks _________.A. his brother gained valuable experiences during the travelB. his brother earned a lot of money by workingC. his brother didn't disappoint his fatherD. his brother's travel was better than his to France66. Which of the following statements is True?A. The author went to France in order to see his relatives.B. The author's mother managed to stop the kids doing dangerous traveling.C. The author' s brother gave up his university to travel in the USA and the Caribbean.D. Many American parents encourage their kids do things independently to prepare for the future.67. The text is mainly about the writer and his brother’s stories to __________.A. do some part-time jobsB. become independentC. travel for experiencesD. earn pocket moneyNew words________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ____________New phrases________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________New sentences________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ____________56—59 ABBD 60—63 BBDB 64—67 DADC。

He stood out because the kids made fun of him. He was missing one of his fingers, and always pointed at students with his middle finger.I was not very good at English and math. No matter how hard I tried, I just could not know why I did not understand what all the other kids found so easy to learn.One day, I was told that if I got one more E on my report card, I would be taken to the “big prison for kids”.I tried really hard for weeks. I just couldn’t understand how to make different parts of numbers into whole things.The day before report cards were to come out, I knew that Mr Young would give me an E, just like he always did.I went to Mr. Young and told him that the orphanage (孤儿院) was going to send me to the big prison if I got another E on my report card. He told me there was nothing he could do; it would be unfair(不公平) to the other kids if he gave me a better grade than I had actually earned. I smiled at him and said, “Mr. Young, do you know how the kids make fun of you because you’re missing your fin ger?”He looked at me, moved his mouth to one side and said nothing.“They shouldn’t do that to you because you can’t help not having a finger, Mr Young. Just like I can’t help not being able to learn numbers and stuff like that,” I said.The next day, when I got my report card, I tucked it into one of my books. While on the school bus, I opened it: Geography, B+; Mechanical Drawing, C-;English, D-; History, C-; Gym, B+; Art, C; Math, D-.That math grade was the most favorite one I ever received. Because I knew that someone in the world finally understood what it was like for me to be missing a finger inside my head.21.

2020年高二英语上学期25分钟限时阅读天天练—第10天阅读理解AEvery year on my birthday, from the time I turned 12, a white gardenia was delivered to my house. No card came with it. Calls to the flower-shop were not helpful at all. After a while ,I stopped trying to discover the sender’s name and just delighted in the beautiful white flower in soft pink paper. But I never stopped imagining who the giver might be. Some of my happiest moments were spent daydreaming about the sender. My mother encouraged these imaginings. She’d ask me if there was someone for whom I had done special kindness. Perhaps it was the old man across the street whose mail I’d delivered during the winter. As a girl, though, I had more fun imagining that it might be a boy I had run into.One month before my graduation, my father died. I felt so sad that I became completely uninterested in my upcoming graduation dance, and I didn’t care if I had a new dress or not. But my mother, in her own sadness, would not let me miss any of those things. She wanted her children to feel loved and lovable. In truth, my mother wanted her children to see themselves much like the gardenia—lovely, strong and perfect with perhaps a bit of mystery . My mother died ten days after I was married. I was 22. That was the year the gardenia stopped coming.56. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. A Childhood Dream.B. A Mother’s Love.C. A Graduation Party.D. A Special Birthday.57. The mother insisted that her daughter go to the graduation dance because _______.A. she could take care of things herselfB. she hoped she would find a boyfriendC. she wanted her to be happy and strongD. she thought education was most important58. Who was the sender of the flower?A. A boy the writer had run into.B. One of the writer’s neighbors.C. One of the writer’s classmates.D. The writer’s motherBHave you ever hear a saying, “Never judge a book by its cover.”? This is a good rule to follow when trying to judge the intelligence of others. Some people have minds that shine only in certain situations. A young man with an unusual gift in writing may find himself speechless before a pretty girl when he speaks. He may not be able to find the right words. But don’t make the mistake of thinking him stupid. With a pen and paper, he can express himself better than anybody else.Other people may fool you into overestimating their intelligence by putting up a good front. A student who listens attentively and takes notes in class is bound to make a favorable impression on his teachers. But when it comes to exams, he may score near the bottom of the class.In a word, you can’t judge someone by appearance. The only way to determine a person’s intelligence is to get to know him. Then you can see how he reacts to different situations. The more situations you see, the better your judgment is likely to be. So take your time. Don’t judge a book by its cover.59. The passage suggests that ______.A. a good writer may not be a good speakerB. a good writer is always a good speakerC. a speechless person always writes wellD. a good writer will find himself speechless60. According to this passage, a student who listens attentively and takes notes in class ______.A. is an intelligent studentB. may not be an intelligent studentC. will score better in examsD. will not be a good student61. The passage suggests that we should judge a person’s intelligence through ______.A. his teachersB. his deeds in the classroomC. his appearanceD. his reactions to different situations62. The writer of this passage wants to tell us not to______.A. judge a book by its coverB. make the mistake of thinking a young man stupidC. overestimate a student’s intelligenceD. judge a person’s intelligence by his appe aranceCVisitors worry that London is an expensive city but therereally are so many things to do for free in London frommuseums and galleries to free music and walking tours.Art GalleriesTate Modern and Tate Britain are exceptional national artgalleries housing some of the finest artworks in the world.Tate Modern focuses on contemporary art while Tate Britaindisplays British Art from the sixteenth century to the present day. MuseumsAll of London's major museums are free, but most offer some special exhibitions for a fee. My favorite is the Museum of London where you can learn the history of London from Roman times to today. Other great major museums are the British Museum, the V&A, the Science Museum, and the Natural History Museum. Oh, and I love the Geffrye Museum. And the Horniman Museum. Now I can't decide which is the best!Many of London's major art galleries and museums are open in theevening and often have special evening events. This can be agreat way to relax at the end of a busy day seeing the sights.The main London galleries and museums are air-conditioned so itcan be wonderful way to cool down in the height of summer in thecity. Galleries and museums are not open late every night so hereis a handy list to help you plan your days and evenings.Royal ParksMany people say the Queen Mary's Rose Gardens in Regent's Park is their favorite spot in London, and who am I to argue? I would also recommend St. James's Park as it offers one of the best views of Buckingham Palace. Hyde Park is enormous and includes the ever popular Diana Memorial Fountain and the Peter Pan Statue.There are often free talks and guided walks in the royal parks so do check the What's On section of the Royal Parks website.Changing of the GuardNo visit to London is complete without seeing this military tradition. The Queen's Guard in London changes in the Forecourt inside the gates of Buckingham Palace at 11.30am every day in the summer and every other day inthe winter. Get there early and view the spectacle from outside the front gates.63. The passage is intended to _________.A. recommend some free scenic spots to touristsB. help visitors save money while visiting IrelandC. advise travelers how to choose art articlesD. tell readers London’s wonderful history64. If you visit some museums in London in late evenings, you ________.A. can see all the artworks free of chargeB. have to endure(put up with) the heat of the summerC. need to pay admission for general exhibitionD. may have a chance to enjoy some special events65.

It is the address of the White House, the home of the president of the United States.Originally the White House was gray and was called the presidential Palace. It was built from 1792 to 1800. At this time, the city of Washington itself was being built. It was to be the nation’s new capital city. George Washington, the first president, and Pierre Charles L'Enfant, a French engineer, chose the place for the new city. L'Enfant then planned the city. The president's home was an important part of the plan.A contest was held to pick a design for the president's home. An architect named James Hoban won. He designed a large three-storyhouse of gray stone.President Washington never lived in the Presidential Palace. Thefirst president to live there was John Adams, the second president of the United States, and his wife Mrs.Adams did not really like her new house. In her letters, she often complained about the cold. Fifty fireplaces were not enough to keep the house warm.In 1812 the United States and Britain went to war. In 1814 theBritish invaded Washington. They burned many buildings, including the Presidential Palace.After the war James Hoban, the original architect, partially rebuilt the president’s home. To cover the marks of the fire, the building was painted white. Before long it became known as the White House. The White House is one of the most popular tourist attractions in the United States. Every year more than 1.5 million visitors go through the five rooms that are open to the public.56.

The president’s home and the city of Washington were______.A. built by the American armyB. built by the British troopsC. planed by George WashingtonD. planned by the French58. The original home of the president needed to be rebuilt______.A. because John Adams’ wife did not like itB. because it was cold in winter even with 50 fireplaceC. because it had been burned down during the warD. because George Washington was not willing to live in it59. The new presidential home was painted white to ______.A. cover the marks of fireB. attract tourist from FranceC. to please Mrs. John AdamsD. keep it warm in winterBIt was Friday, the day of the field trip on which Miss Joan would take her class to pick apples.Miss Joan enjoyed picking apples with her students. She smiled as she led her students to the bus that would take them to the Greenly Apple Orchard〔果园(guǒyuán)〕.The bus ride was bumpy(颠簸的) and the kids were a little noisy, but still Miss Joan was smiling.The bus stopped in front of the Greenly Apple Orchard and the class got off quickly and quietly. Miss Joan made sure everyone was there. “What a glorious, sunny, apple picking day,〞 Miss Joan announced with her grandest smile.Mr. Greenly was there to greet them. “Let’s see, there are eighteen children and two adults at three dollars each. That will be sixty dollars, please.〞Miss Joan held up the brochure in her hand. “It says that the price is two dollars each,〞she pointed out. “That’s what I collected from everyone.〞“We’ve had to raise the price,〞 Mr. Greenly stated.“You sent me this brochure after we made our reservation,〞 Miss Joan complained, “and it says two dollars!〞“Miss Joan, if you look at the bottom of this brochure,〞 Mr. Greenly said, “you’ll notice very important statement.〞Sure enough, in very tiny letters, it said, “Prices are subject to change without notice.〞Miss Joan was determined to keep her good mood. She took a twenty dollars bill out of her own purse and handed it to Mr. Greenly with the forty dollars she had in an envelope.“Now children, do you all have your baskets?〞 Miss Joan called out. “Remember, each of you can pick as many apples as possible.〞Mr. Greenly said, “You can’t pick as many apples as possible.〞“I beg your pardon!〞Miss Joan was not smiling now. “The brochur e says, ‘ALL YOU CAN PICK’!〞Mr. Greenly pointed to the tiniest letters Miss Joan had ever almost seen. It also says, “Terms(条款(tiáokuǎn)) and conditions of group reservations are subject to change without notice.〞Miss Joan’s good mood was now history. She didn’t want to set a bad example for her students, so she said in a calm and quiet voice, “We’re going home, give me our money back, please.〞60. The phrase“subject to change without notice〞 suggests________.A. Mr. Greenly could change the terms at willB. the customers should read the brochure carefullyC. Mr. Greenly could determine what apples to be pickedD. the customers should be informed beforehand61. The students could not pick as many apples as they would like because________.A. they were childrenB. there were not enough applesC. they had made a group reservationD. they would eat up too many apples62.“Miss Joan’s good mood was now history〞 (the last paragraph) means ________.A.

Immediately she found 45 jobs meeting her criteria(标准), including one as an assistant to an administrator at the university of Chicago’s business school.

He had just been promoted to director of marketing for a company and wasn’t looking for a job. But curiously, he decided to “give it a try”.Toole filled out a profile with the key words marketing manager and entered his electronic-mail address. Within a week his computer’s mailbox was filling up with available positions. Two interviews later he jumped to a new job.”The Internet is like hiring a personal assistant,”says Toole. “Effortle ssly you can become aware of opportunities that may promote you career.”Most major newspapers and trade publications have online versions of their classified listings, enabling jobseekers to scan for work available acrosstown, in another states or around the world. All 50 states, plus Washington, D.

Computer and job openings (职位空缺)BIt is not unusual at all for teens to answer their parents with one-word answers.“Where are you going? ”“Places.”“When will you be back?”“Sometime. ”“Who will you be with? ”“People. ”That means that the days of your children bounding(跳跃着跑) in the front door with the details of their day are over. They are breaking away from youso that they will be able to stand on their own as a young adult.Some parents feel sad about his loss of their children’s closeness. Of course you miss those conversations and friendly talks. Once your children move out after high school and establish themselves confidently as a young adult, they will come back for easy conversations and even ask for advice. But in order to determine who they are right now, they need to separate from you. Your job, however, is to keep them safe---and that requires knowing where they are and who they are with. Let them know clearly that it’s not because you want to dominate(支配) their life and control them; it’s because it’s a safety issue for family members to keep track of one another.When they are home and sit down to eat a meal, sit down with them. You need to open up to them about your life. Tell them of an interesting incident at the office, let them in on a family gossip(闲谈), discuss a piece of news with them. They are glad that you see them as old enough to be in on a few experiences of your life. By letting a teen in on your life, they just may let you in on theirs.5. It can be inferred from the passage that______.A. the generation gap is becoming wider and widerB. teens quarrel a lot with their parentsC. teens don’t want to live with other family membersD. some parents feel distant from their teenage children6. The author believes that teens’ one-word answers show ______.A. their awareness of independenceB. their physical and mental changesC. their wishes for keeping silentD. an unpleasant parent-child relationship7. What’s the main idea of t he last paragraph?A. Parents should understand their children.B. Parents should keep their children safe.C. Parents should open their hearts to their children.D. Parents should give their children enough freedom.8. What’s the author’s purpose in writi ng the passage?A. To give advice.B. To direct teenagers.C. To present findingsD. To comfort parents.CI had an experience once which taught me something about the ways people madea bad situation worse by blaming themselves. One January, I officiated(主持) at two funerals for two elderly women. Both died a natural death. At the first home, the son of the deceased(已故) woman said, “If only I had sent my mother to Florida and gotten her out of this cold and snow, she would be alive today. It’s my fault that she died.” At the second home, the son said, “If only I had not insisted her going to Florida, she would be alive today. That long airplane ride was more than she could take. It is my fault.”When things don’t turn out as we would like them to, we tend to assume that had we done things differently, the story would have had a happier ending. Any time there is a death, the survivors will feel guilty. Because the course of action they took turned out bad, they believe that the opposite course, for example, keeping mother at home, would have turned out better. After all, how could it have turned out any worse?There seem to be elements involved in our readiness to feel guilty. The first lies in our belief that the world makes sense---there is a reason for everything that happens.The second is the thought that we are the cause of what happens, especially the bad things that happen. The roots of this feeling may lie in our childhood.A baby comes to think that the world exists to meet his needs, and that he makes everything happen in it. He wakes up in the morning and calls the rest of the world to its tasks. He cries, and someone comes to attend to him. When he is hungry, people feed him, and when he is wet, people change him. Very often, we do not completely abandon that childish thought that our wishes cause things to happen.9. What is true about the two deceased elderly women?A. They both died of old age.B. They died from hard work.C. They were’t accustomed to the change in life.D. They died due to lack of care by family members.10. People feel guilty for the death of their loved ones because______.A. they cannot find a better way to express their sorrowB. they believe that they are responsible for what has happenedC. they don’t know that na tural course of eventsD. they don’t know things often turn out in the opposite direction11. The underline part “the world makes sense” in Paragraph 3 probably means that____.A. everything in the world is planned in advanceB. the world can be understood in different waysC. there’s an explanation for everything in the worldD. we have to be wise in order to understand the world12.

The latest research makes it known that the reason could be that men’s hearts go into rapid decline(下降) when they reach middle age.The largest study of the effects of ageing on the heart has found that wome n’s longevity may be linked to the fact that their hearts do not lose their pumping power with age.“We have found that the power of the male heart falls by 20-25 percent between 18 and 70 years of age,” said the head of the study, David Goldspink of Liverpool John Moores University in the UK.“Within the heart there are millions of cells that enable it to beat. Between the age of 20 and 70, one-third of those cells die and are not replaced in men,” said Goldspink. “This is part of the ageing process.”What surprises scientists is that the female heart sees very little loss of these cells. A healthy 70-year-old woman’s heart could perform almost as well as a 20-year-old one’s.“This gender(性) difference might just explain why women live longer than men,” sa id Goldspink. They studied more than 250 healthy men and women between the ages of 18 and 80, focusing on healthy persons to remove(消除)the confusing influence of disease. “The team has yet to find why ageing takes a greater loss on the male heart,” said Goldspink.The good news is that men can improve the health of their heart with regular (规律的)exercise. Goldspink stressed (强调)that women also need regular exercise to prevent their leg muscles becoming smaller and weaker as they age.21. The underlined word “longevity” in the second paragraph probably refers to(指的是)“________”.A. healthB. long lifeC. ageingD. effect22. The text mainly talks about ________.A. men’s heart cellsB. women’s ageing process、C. the gender differenceD. hearts and long life23. According to the text, the UK scientists have known that ________.A. women have more cells than men when they are bornB. women can replace the cells that enable the heart to beatC. the female heart loses few of the cells with ageD. women never lose their pumping power with age24. If you want to live longer, you should ________.A. enable your heart to beat much fasterB. find out the reason for ageingC. exercise regularly to keep your heart healthyD. prevent your cells from being lost25. We can know from the passage(文章)that ________.A. the reason why ageing takes a greater loss on the male heart has been found outB. scientists are on the way to finding out why the male heart loses more of the cellsC. the team has done something to prevent the male from suffering the greater lossD. women over 70 could lose more heart cells than those at the age of 20New words________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ __New phrases________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ __New sentences________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ __完型1-5 DBACA 6-10 DCADB 11-15 DBCAB 16-20 CBDAD阅读:21-25 B D C C B。

I've noticed that it blooms only in the morning hours, the afternoon sun is 38 warm for it. Every day for 39 two weeks, I see those beautiful flowers.This spring, I started a wildflower garden in our yard. I can look out of the 40 window while doing the dishes and see the flowers. I've often thought that those lovely blue flowers from the ditch would look 41 in that bed alongside 42 wildflowers.Everyday I 43 past the flowers thinking, "I'll stop on my way home and dig them." "Gee, I don't want to get my good clothes 44 ..." Whatever the reason, I never stopped to dig them. My husband 45 gave me a folding shovel(铲) one year to be used for that 46 purpose.One day on my way home from work, I was 47 to see that the highway department had moved the ditches and the pretty blue flowers were gone. I thought to myself, "Way to go, you 48 too long. You 49 it when you first saw them blooming this spring."A week ago we were shocked and saddened to learn that my oldest sister-in-law has a terminal brain tumor(脑瘤晚期). She is 20 years older than my husband and unfortunately, 50 age and distance, we haven't been as 51 as we all would have liked. I couldn't help but 52 the connection between the pretty blue flowers and the 53 between my husband's sister and us. I do believe that God has given us some time left to plant some wonderful 54 that will bloom every year for us.And yes, if I see the blue flowers again, you can bet I'll stop and 55 them to my wildflower garden.36.

It is the address of the White House, the home of the president of the United States. Originally the White House was gray and was called the presidential Palace. It was built from 1792 to 1800. At this time, the city of Washington itself was being built. It was to be the nation’s new capital city. George Washington, the first p resident, and Pierre Charles L'Enfant, a French engineer, chose the place for the new city. L'Enfant then planned the city. The president's home was an important part of the plan.A contest was held to pick a design for the president's home. An architect named James Hoban won. He designed a large three-story house of gray stone.President Washington never lived in the Presidential Palace. The first president to live there was John Adams, the second president of the United States, and his wife Mrs.Adams did not really like her new house. In her letters, she often complained about the cold. Fifty fireplaces were not enough to keep the house warm.In 1812 the United States and Britain went to war. In 1814 the British invaded Washington. They burned many buildings, including the Presidential Palace.After the war James Hoban, the original architect, partially rebuilt the president’s home. To cover the marks of the fire, the building was painted white. Before long it became known as the White House.The White House is one of the most popular tourist attractions in the United States. Every year more than 1.5 million visitors go through the five rooms that are open to the public.56.

The new presidential home was painted white to ______.A. cover the marks of fireB. attract tourist from FranceC. to please Mrs. John AdamsD. keep it warm in winterBIt was Friday, the day of the field trip on which Miss Joan would take her class to pick apples.Miss Joan enjoyed picking apples with her students. She smiled as she led her students to the bus that would take them to the Greenly Apple Orchard〔果园〕.The bus ride was bumpy(颠簸的) and the kids were a little noisy, but still Miss Joan was smiling.The bus stopped in front of the Greenly Apple Orchard and the class got off quickly and quietly. Miss Joan made sure everyone was there. “What a glorious, sunny, apple picking day,〞 Miss Joan announced with her grandest smile.Mr. Greenly was there to greet them. “Let’s see, there are eighteen children a nd two adults at three dollars each. That will be sixty dollars, please.〞Miss Joan held up the brochure in her hand. “It says that the price is two dollars each,〞she pointed out. “That’s what I collected from everyone.〞“We’ve had to raise the price,〞 Mr. Greenly stated.“You sent me this brochure after we made our reservation,〞 Miss Joan complained,“and it says two dollars!〞“Miss Joan, if you look at the bottom of this brochure,〞 Mr. Greenly said, “you’ll notice very important statement.〞Sure enough, in very tiny letters, it said, “Prices are subject to change without notice.〞Miss Joan was determined to keep her good mood. She took a twenty dollars bill out of her own purse and handed it to Mr. Greenly with the forty dollars she had in an envelope.“Now children, do you all have your baskets?〞Miss Joan called out. “Remember, each of you can pick as many apples as possible.〞Mr. Greenly said, “You can’t pick as many apples as possible.〞“I beg your pardon!〞Miss Joan was not smiling now. “The brochure says, ‘ALL YOU CAN PICK’!〞Mr. Greenly pointed to the tiniest letters Miss Joan had ever almost seen. It also says, “Terms(条款) and conditions of group reservations are subject to change without notice.〞Miss Joan’s good mood was now history. She didn’t wan t to set a bad example for her students, so she said in a calm and quiet voice, “We’re going home, give me our money back, please.〞60.

What can I do to feel better when I’m talking to other people? Do you have some ways to learn it faster? Please help me! ---Roberto in BrazilA:Roberto wants to know how to become more fluent in English, and this is something you want to be able to do “fast”.First, if you get to meet English speakers much, the important rule is to listen not just to native speakers of English, but aslo to very good users of English. If you don’t, then listen to the radio, TV or films in English. The next step is to notice what it is that speakers of English do, which makes them sound fluent. The first trick (诀窍) is to probobly have confidence. Some people think they might make mistakes. Don’t worry about that. Your listeners will usually try hard to understand you---a few grammar mistakes aren’t going to worry them.What you do need to worry about is pronunciation, especially stress (重音). When you learn a new word or expression, learn it with its stress. Notice how a native speaker says it or look it up in a dictionary.Another good thing that speakers of English do is to have a few tricks up their sleeves (袖子) for when they need to give themselves thinking time. Sometimes they use “filler sounds” like er, um, and so on.It is also useful to know how to bring other speakers into your conversation so that you keep them interested---and this is often done by asking questions like “What do you think?”“How do you feel about this?” and so on. So, to become a fluent speaker, you’ll need to put into practice all these kinds of things. And there’s the key: practisce, practise, practise.---Susan Fearn5. Roberto wants to know how to_____A. learn EnglishB. speak English fluentlyC. talk to other peopleD. become confident6. When mentioning pronunciation, Susan pays special attention to_____A. stressB. expressionsC.dictionariesD. words7. What do the underlined words “to have a few tricks up their sleeves”probably mean?A. To wear a lot of clothes.B. To have a secret plan or idea.C. To hide some tricks into their sleeves.D. To have sleeves covering their whole arms.8. What do we know from the passage?A. One can only learn stress from dictionaries.B. Grammar mistakes worry one’s listeners a lot.C. Asking questions can make one’s conversation attractive.D. One can become fluent if one practises one of the suggestions.CFriendship is something that everyone needs. Success is nothing without friends. You share life, happiness and sadness. A friend is someone you can depend on in a time of need and that can trust you with every secret he or she has.So what happens when a friendship of eight years is broken over something out of their control? Does that mean it was never a true friendship to begin with?My friend and I met in high school and have known each other for nearly eight years. What happened recently broke our lifelong friendship.This makes me think about friendship really means. I always thought my friend and I could get through any argument, fight, or the sadness of life. We promised each other we’d always be friends, through thick and thin. We even joked about how we would sit in a circle and laugh at some jokes when we had grandchilren. We always laughed at every little thing.But then her grandfather passed away (去世) and suddenly our friendship was nothing. It happened so suddenly that I never found out about it until Idiscovered a note she had written on the Internet. I was sad and hurt that she would post (发帖子) what I told her for other people to see. I understand that she was sad and wanted to vent (发泄) her sadness, but I wish she’d kept everything between us.I don’t understand why she broke our friendship, and I don’t think I ever will. I think friendship means we’ll always forgive each other for our mistakes. I hope that finally I’ll find that true friend who will always be there for me, and I there for her.9.
