专项练习一For over one hundred and fifty years, Americans of all social classes have worn blue jeans.1 Whether they are worn for work or for fashion today.Strauss' invention continues to be popular not only among Americans but also among people around the world.Levi Strauss was born in Germany in 1829. 2 He grew up in Kentucky before moving to New York in 1847.Before becoming an American citizen and moving to the West in 1853, Strauss worked in his brother's dry goods business.This gave him a chance to produce his famous invention.After the gold rush of 1849, Strauss decided to move to the West to seek his fortunes.Strauss did not want to be a person who searched an area for minerals.Instead, he knew he could make a good living by selling supplies to the miners.At first, he planned to sell sewing supplies and cloth. 3 When he heard miners complaining that their clothes were easily broken or they usually tore their pockets during mining, he decided to use a special fabric to make pants for the miners.These pants proved so popular that he quickly ran out of materials to make more.In 1873, Strauss received a letter from a Jewish tailor named Jacob Davis who had invented a process of connecting pockets with copper rivets(铆钉).This made the pants last a long time.Because Davis did not have the money to patent his idea, he offered to share it with Strauss if Strauss would agree to pay for the patent. 4 .By the time Strauss died in 1902, he had made a great contribution to American fashion.5 The business has been growing ever since and Levi Strauss' company is now one of the largest clothing companies in the world.A.As a young boy, he moved with his family to the United States.B.Nobody knew what kind of material was suitable.C.He did and Levi jeans have been made with metal rivets ever since.D.However, he did not get much business for those products.E.He also made a great contribution to America's clothing industry.F.Since they were invented by Levi Strauss, they have become a symbol of American consumer culture.G.As the business grew, Strauss got much money from it.专项练习二Recently some American scientists have given a useful piece of advice to people inindustrialized nations.They say people should eat more of the same kind of food eaten by humans living more than 10,000 years ago. 1The scientists say that the human life has changed greatly.Our bodies have not been able to deal with these changes in lifestyle and this had led to new kinds of sicknesses.2 So they are called "diseases of civilization".Many cancers and diseases of the blood system are examples of such diseases.Scientists noted that people in both the Old Stone Age and the New Stone Age enjoyed very little alcohol or tobacco, probably none. 3 However, a change in food is one of the main differences between life in ancient times and that of today.Stone Age people hunted wild animals for their meat, which had much less fat than domestic ones.They ate a lot of fresh wild vegetables and fruits.They did not have milk or any other dairy products, and they made very little use of grains. 4 We eat six times more salt than our ancestors.We eat more sugar.We eat twice as much fat but only one third as much protein and much less vitamin C.5 But scientists say that we would be much healthier if we eat much the same way the ancient people did, cutting the amount of fatty, salty and sweet food.A.Stone Age people lived a simple life.B.But today, we enjoy eating a lot of these.C.In that case, they would live much healthier.D.Ancient people also got lots of physical exercise.E.These new sicknesses were not known in ancient times.F.People today probably don't want to live like our ancestors.G.Modern people used to suffer from "diseases of civilization".专项练习三For the rest of March, a disease will sweep across the US. It will keep kids home from school. 1 Employees will suddenly lose their ability to concentrate.The disease, known as “March Madness”, refers to the yearly 65 –team US men’s college basketball tournament (锦标赛). 2 Teams compete against each other in a single – elimination (单局淘汰) tournament that eventually crowns a national champion.Nearly 20 million Americans will find themselves prisoners of basketball festival madness. The fun comes partly from guessing the winners for every game. Friends compete against friends. 3 Colleagues against bosses.Big – name schools are usually favored to advance into the tournament. But each year there are dark horses from little – known universities.This adds to the madness. Watching a team from a school with 3,000 students beat a team from a school with 30,000, for many Americans, is an exciting experience. Two years ago, the little – known George Mason University was one of the final four teams. 4College basketball players are not paid, so the game is more about making a namefor their university and themselves. 5 About $ 4 billion will be spent gambling (赌) on the event. According to Media Life magazine, the event will bring in $ 500 million in advertising income this year, topping the post – season income of every US professional league, including that of the NBA.A. Husbands against wives.B. The players will go all out for the games.C. But that doesn’t mean money isn’t involved.D. College students will ignore piles of homework.E. People are willing to spend more money on watching it.F. It begins on March 15 and lasts through the beginning of April.G. Many people had never even heard of the university before the tournament.专项练习四Everyone knows that the Frenchmen are romantic, the Italians are fashionable and the Germans are serious. Are these just stereotypes or is there really such a thing as national character? And if there is, can it affect how a nation succeed or fail?At least one group of people is certain that it can. A recent survey of the top 500 entrepreneurs (企业家) in the UK found that 70% felt that their efforts were not appreciated by the British public. Britain is hostile (敌意的) to success, they said. It has a culture of jealousy(嫉妒). 1 Jealousy is sometimes known as the “green –eyed monster” and the UK is its home.Scientists at Warwich University in the UK recently tested this idea. They gathered a group of people together and gave each an imaginary amount of money. 2 Those given a little were given the chance to destroy the large amount of money given to others – but at the cost of losing their own. Two thirds of the people tested agreed to do this.3 . But there is also opposite evidence. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development recently reported that the UK is now the world’s fourth largest economy. That is not bad for people who are supposed to hate success. People in the UK also work longer hours than anyone else in Europe. So the British people are not lazy, either.“It is not really success that the British dislike,” says Carey Cooper, a professor of management at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology. “It’s people using their success in a way that seems proud or unfair or which separates them from their roots.”4They set out to do things in their way. They work long hours. By their own efforts they become millionaires. 5 .It hardly seems worth following their example. If they were more friendly, people would like them more. And more people want to be like them.A. This seems to prove that the entrepreneurs were right to complain.B.The one who owns most money in the end is the winner.C.As a result, the survey said, entrepreneurs were “unloved, unwanted and misunderstood.”D.It is not true that British people are born jealous of others` success.E. Some were given a little, others a great deal.F. But instead of being happy they complain that nobody loves them.G. Perhaps it is the entrepreneurs who are the problem.专项练习五1 When a starving man gets a meal, he begins to think about an overcoat; when an executive gets a new sports car, visions of country clubs and pleasure beats dance into view.The many wants of mankind might be regarded as making up several levels. 2 . The first and most basic level of wants involves food. Once this want is satisfied, a second level of wants appears: clothing and some sort of shelter. By the end of World War II these wants were satisfied for a great majority of Americans. 3 It included such items as automobile sand new houses.By 1957 or 1958 this third level of wants was fairly well satisfied. Then, in the late 1950s a fourth level of wants appeared: the “li fe-enriching”level. While the other levels involve physical satisfaction-the feeding, comfort, safety, and transportation of the human body-this level stresses mental needs for recognition, achievement and happiness. It includes a variety of goods and services, many of which could be called “luxury” items. Among them are vacation trips, the best medical care, and entertainment. 4One this level, a greater percentage of consumer spending goes to services, while on the first three levels more is spent on goods. Will consumers raise their sights to a fifth level of wants as their income increases, or will they continue to demand luxuries and personal services on the fourth level?A fifth level probably would involve wants that can be achieved best by community action. Consumers may be spending more on taxes to pay for government action against disease, ignorance, crime and prejudice. 5 In this way, we can enjoy more fully the good things on the first four levels.A.Then a third level appeared.B.Human wants seem endless.C.When there is money enough to satisfy one level of wants, another level appears.D.There are several levels of wants in one’s life.E.At this stage, we now may seek to ensure the health, safety, and leisure.F.Also included here are fancy foods and the latest styles in clothing.G.Different people have different wants on each level.专项练习六We are all called upon to make a speech at some point in life, but most of us don’t do a very good job. 1 .So, you have to give a speech—and you are terrified. You get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you stumble(结结巴巴)over words, you talk too long, and you bore your audience. Later you think, “Thank Goodness, it’s over. I’m just not good at public speaking. I hope I never h ave to do that again.”Cheep up! 2 . Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making. Ask yourself the purpose of your speech. What is the occasion? Why are you speaking? Then, gather as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of your time doing your research. Then spend plenty of your time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible, and use pictures, charts, and graphs if they help you make your points more clearly. 3 . Don’t talk over their heads, and don’t talk down to them. Treat your audience with respect. They will appreciate your thoughtfulness.Just remember: Be prepared. Know your subject, your audience, and the occasion. Be brief. 4 . And be yourself. Let your personality come through so that you make person-to-person contact with your audience.If you follow these simple steps, you will see that you don’t have to be afraid of public speaking. In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more speeches! You’re not convinced yet? 5 .A. It doesn’t have to be that bad.B. Take several deep breaths before your speech.C. This article gives some advice on how to give a good speech.D. Say what you have to say and then stop.E. Don’t say what you aren’t familiar with.F. Never forget your audience.G. Give it a try and see what happens.专项练习七There is an English saying:“ 1._.” Until recently, few people took the saying seriously. Now, however, doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body. 2. ___Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their hearts, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise. 3._. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs. The group that tolerated(忍耐) the pain for thelongest time was the group which listened to a funny program. 4.___.5.___. They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing , making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter.A. Laughter can prolong one’s life.B. As a result of these discoveries, some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics in which they help to improve their patients’ condition by encouraging them to laugh.C. The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemicals in the brain which diminish both stress and pain.D. It increases blood pressure, the heart beating and breathing; it also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach and even the feet.E. Although laughter helps cure the disease, doctors still can not put this theory into clinic practice.F. Laughter is the best medicine.G. They have found that laughter really can improve people’s health.专项练习八Why do some people have many friends while others do not? 1 However, it is not so. Let’s look at two psychological experiments which will give you the key to happy interpersonal relations.The first experiment is called the “Hawthorne effect” after Hawthorne, Illi nois, where the experiment took place. A group of psychologists examined the work patterns of two groups of workers in the Western Electric Company. 2 .The psychologists changed the working conditions for one group twice but left the other group alone. They were surprised to find that productivity increase on both occasions and in both groups. They concluded that the increase in productivity came from the attention given to the workers by the management. It had increased their motivation (积极性) and so they had worked harder. In other words, if you take an interest in others ,they will want to please you and you will have good relations with them.3 After Martin Luther King, Jr was killed in the 1960s, a teacher, Jane Elliott, living in an all – white town decided to help her class of young children understand why the Civil Rights Movement had been necessary in America.She divided the class into two groups: one with blue eyes and the other with brown eyes. Other eye colours such as hazel or green were excluded from his exercise. Then she told the class that brown – eyed people were cleverer than blue – eyed ones because of an agent (化学作用) for brown colour found in their blood. Blue – eyed people were stupid, lazy and not to be trusted. Jane Elliott did not need to say any more. The brown – eyed students quickly got used to their new role as the leaders of the class. The blue – eyedstudents became quiet and withdrawn. Then she discovered something very interesting. Four poor brown – eyed readers began to read fluently in a way they had never done before. 4 .So if you want to be successful and happy, take an interest in others whether they are your classmates or workmates. Congratulate them on their successes and sympathize(同情) with them in their troubles. 5 .A. Before the experiment the management talked to both groups of workers and explained that they wanted to find the best working environment for them.B. Remember that the way you treat others will decide their attitude and behaviour to you.C. The second experiment shows what happens to personal relations if you are rude to or ignore(忽略)others.D. The ones who have more friends usually are those who care about others.E. Jane Elliott had shown that the way people are treated affects not only their behaviour but also their confidence and their performance.F.You may even imagine that this ability was something they were born with because it seems so effortless to them.G. The second experiment tells us what teachers said has a great effect on the students.专项练习九The seven Cs of a good letterWhat is the secret of writing a good letter? Here are two main ones. Don’t try to be fanc y. Don’t try to impress your reader. You will be successful if you follow these seven Cs. e short, direct sentences. 1 Talk as if the reader were right there with you .Above all, don’t use an introduction.Correct, 2 Don’t guess, even for spel ling.

A year with a February 29 might be good news if you are paid by the day or the week. But it might be bad news if you were born on a February 29.____36____. American English has a term for the unusual situation. February 29 is called a leap day. And the entire 12-month period with a February 29 in it is called a leap year. This year, 2020, is such a year.In a leap year, the dates jump over one day of the week. Let me explain. In 2017, the last day of the year, December 31, fell on a Sunday. In 2018, it fell on a Monday. In 2019, it fell on a Tuesday. But in 2020, December 31 will fall on a Thursday.___37___.The reason for a leap day or a leap year is because our calendar does not follow the Earth's orbit around the sun exactly.___38___. So every fouryears, we put all that time together into an extra day —or, what is officially called an intercalary(闰) day."Leap" is also an important word for two other common American expressions.___39___. If you want someone to investigate a situation completely before taking action, you might say, "Look before you leap." The other expression is a phrase of hope. Urging someone to "take a leap of faith" means inviting the person to take action, even if not everything about a situation is known. Interestingly, both phrases are completely reasonable to say to someone who is about to get married. On that note, some people choose to marry on February 29 because it is an unusual date.___40___. Leap years were believed to be difficult, and leap days unlucky and a bad time to begin anything new. Whatever you think about them, the change in the calendar will be gone soon enough. Then we can return to normal, and leap over February 29 as usual.A. One is a kind of warning.B. That's why we called it a Leap YearC. It just leaped right over Wednesday.D. Each year, we have a little time left over.E. You have to wait three years in between birthdays!F. As a verb, the word "leap" means to jump, or to move quickly.G. Some ancient peoples would likely tell couples not to do it, however. 【答案】E C D A G9.Any exercise is good exercise, but when it comes to losing weight, it's hard to beat running. After all, running is one of the most efficient ways to burn calories and get fit without having to restrict your diet.31 If you're not a runner yet but interested in losing weight, here are four reasons running can be the best exercise for weight loss.32 When comparing running with walking the same distance, studies find that running will lead to greater weight loss, most likely because your resting energy expenditure stays elevated(高的) after you run. In a long-term comparison study of runners and walkers, calories burned through running led to 90% more weight loss than calories burned through walking.Running is time-efficient. Even if the myth that running a mile and walking a mile burn the same number of calories were true, running is a considerably faster way to burn those calories. 33Running is convenient. Though many of us have accumulated a vast arsenal(武器,装备) of GPS gadgets and tech tees over the years, little is actually required to go running. You can do it alone. You can do it almost anywhere. 34 For this reason alone, running is the best workout for weight loss because it's cheap and accessible, and there are fewer barriers to maintaining a routine, even while traveling.Twowords: runner's high. 35 Fortunately, studies support what many runners have experienced on an anecdotal level—running can actually get you high. Scientists have found links between moderate to intense exercise and morphine-like brain chemicals, which explains the occasional flood of thrill that rushes over you during a hardrun. That happy sensation you had after your last race makes you want to go for another run, right?A. Cultivate the good habit of running.B. Running works even when you're at rest.C. You will never stick to a habit if you don't like it.D. The first rule of exercising for weight loss is that if you don't enjoy it, you won't stick with it.E. You don't need any equipment beyond a pair of running shoes.F. If you're already a runner, keep on.G. Most people can run two or three times as far as they can walk in a given amount of time.答案:FBGED10Friendly people are welcoming. When you are friendly, you make other people feel good about themselves and you also feel more confident about yourself. 31 Being friendly doesn't have to mean changing who you are but doing little things to make others comfortable.___32__ If you are not friendly, you might feel embarrassed when you first try to be more welcoming with others. One way to learn to be friendly is to think of an outgoing person and copy his/her postures(姿势),words and behavior.Be kind to strangers. An easy way to be friendly is to offer a smile to people you might normally ignore. Every day there are opportunities to be friendly with strangers. ___33___.Try to accept others.___34__If someone new tries to chat with you, make an effort to contribute to the conversation instead of giving one-wordanswers. In a group, look out for one who doesn't seem to know anyone and try to accept him/her into the group.Stay in touch. Sometimes we neglect(忽视) to be friendly with those we know the best--- our close friends and family. ___35__Therefore, you can send a warm email too let your mother know that you are thinking about her.A. Observe friendliness in others.B. Smile and remember everyone's name.C. They may want to hang out, but be too shy to ask.D. So friendliness is a win-win no matter how you look at it.E. Don't pass up the chance to be warm and make others comfortable.F. Actually, offering friendliness and warmth to them is also very important.G. Making new people you meet feel accepted forms a large part of being friendly.答案:DAEGF。

高考阅读七选五练习试题汇总61篇附答案
高考七选五练习汇总61篇高考七选五题型一旦出错,往往一错错一窜,是容易丢分的题型,笔者根据自己历年来辅导高考的经验,对其进行一个简单总结,希望能对各地即将参加高考的学子有所帮助。
一、正确与错误选项的特征正确选项具有如下特征:1、放进去通顺,这一点是基础。
凡不通顺的必错无疑;2、选项中有单词、词组、句子成分或与所选答案所在段内容重合;3、选项与其上句或下句之间有必然的逻辑关系;4、选项全部内容都属于正确答案所在段。
有时备选答案中可能含有甲乙两项内容,这时,只有当甲和乙都归属于本段时,答案才是正确的。
针对第2项的所讲的重合,举个例子:如果整个文章中只有第二段中有laugh一词,而各个选项中只有D项中有laugh这个词,那还等什么,立刻把它选上,因为它有99%的可能是正确的;不过,如果D、E两个选项中都有laugh这个词,那我们就该明白正确选项就在D、E当中,究竟哪个正确,还要看哪个放进去通顺,如果都通顺,再看是不是其中有一项的某一部分内容在其他段落已经讲了(哪个选项出现这种情况哪个选项落选),还确定不下来的话,再看看哪个选项的内容与前后句之间有逻辑关系(有这种关系的是正确答案),经过这样的层层筛选,正确答案自然会水落石出。
上面第3项所指的逻辑关系主要是指代词关系、冠词关系以及连接词关系等。
例如,代词关系方面,如果所选答案中有he,him,his等词,这就意味着空前面必然出现了a boy,a man等词或人名。
如果这些词在空后面出现,就意味着正确答案中必有a boy ,a man等词或人名。
冠词方面,如果正确答案中出现了定冠词the,则空前将有不定冠词a(n)或与之相应的名词等出现。
如果定冠词第一次出现在空后,则意味着空里所需的答案中会有不定冠词a(n)或相应的名词等出现。
连接词方面,如果but ,however等出现在答案中,则意味着该答案与空前部分含义是相反的,但同时又与空后的内容在含义上是一顺撇的或一致的;如果答案中有for another,前面不远处会有for one thing,如果答案中有other(s),前面不远处会有some,如果答案中有second,前面不远处会有first等等。

选项中有两项为多余选项。
专项练习一For over one hundred and fifty years, Americans of all social classes have worn blue jeans.1 Whether they are worn for work or for fashion today.Strauss' invention continues to be popular not only among Americans but also among people around the world.Levi Strauss was born in Germany in 1829. 2 He grew up in Kentucky before moving to New York in 1847.Before becoming an American citizen and moving to the West in 1853, Strauss worked in his brother's dry goods business.This gave him a chance to produce his famous invention.After the gold rush of 1849, Strauss decided to move to the West to seek his fortunes.Strauss did not want to be a person who searched an area for minerals.Instead, he knew he could make a good living by selling supplies to the miners.At first, he planned to sell sewing supplies and cloth. 3 When he heard miners complaining that their clothes were easily broken or they usually tore their pockets during mining, he decided to use a special fabric to make pants for the miners.These pants proved so popular that he quickly ran out of materials to make more.In 1873, Strauss received a letter from a Jewish tailor named Jacob Davis who had invented a process of connecting pockets with copper rivets(铆钉).This made the pants last a long time.Because Davis did not have the money to patent his idea, he offered to share it with Strauss if Strauss would agree to pay for the patent. 4 .By the time Strauss died in 1902, he had made a great contribution to American fashion.5 The business has been growing ever since and Levi Strauss' company is now one of the largest clothing companies in the world.A.As a young boy, he moved with his family to the United States.B.Nobody knew what kind of material was suitable.C.He did and Levi jeans have been made with metal rivets ever since.D.However, he did not get much business for those products.E.He also made a great contribution to America's clothing industry.F.Since they were invented by Levi Strauss, they have become a symbol of American consumer culture.G.As the business grew, Strauss got much money from it.专项练习二Recently some American scientists have given a useful piece of advice to people in industrialized nations.They say people should eat more of the same kind of food eaten by humans living more than 10,000 years ago. 1The scientists say that the human life has changed greatly.Our bodies have not been able to deal with these changes in lifestyle and this had led to new kinds of sicknesses.2 So they arecalled "diseases of civilization".Many cancers and diseases of the blood system are examples of such diseases.Scientists noted that people in both the Old Stone Age and the New Stone Age enjoyed very little alcohol or tobacco, probably none. 3 However, a change in food is one of the main differences between life in ancient times and that of today.Stone Age people hunted wild animals for their meat, which had much less fat than domestic ones.They ate a lot of fresh wild vegetables and fruits.They did not have milk or any other dairy products, and they made very little use of grains. 4 We eat six times more salt than our ancestors.We eat more sugar.We eat twice as much fat but only one third as much protein and much less vitamin C.5 But scientists say that we would be much healthier if we eat much the same way the ancient people did, cutting the amount of fatty, salty and sweet food.A.Stone Age people lived a simple life.B.But today, we enjoy eating a lot of these.C.In that case, they would live much healthier.D.Ancient people also got lots of physical exercise.E.These new sicknesses were not known in ancient times.F.People today probably don't want to live like our ancestors.G.Modern people used to suffer from "diseases of civilization".专项练习三For the rest of March, a disease will sweep across the US. It will keep kids home from school.1 Employees will suddenly lose their ability to concentrate.The disease, known as “March Madness”, refers to the yearly 65 –team US men’s college basketball tournament (锦标赛). 2 Teams compete against each other in a single – elimination (单局淘汰) tournament that eventually crowns a national champion.Nearly 20 million Americans will find themselves prisoners of basketball festival madness. The fun comes partly from guessing the winners for every game. Friends compete against friends.3 Colleagues against bosses.Big – name schools are usually favored to advance into the tournament. But each year there are dark horses from little – known universities.This adds to the madness. Watching a team from a school with 3,000 students beat a team from a school with 30,000, for many Americans, is an exciting experience. Two years ago, the little –known George Mason University was one of the final four teams. 4College basketball players are not paid, so the game is more about making a name for their university and themselves. 5 About $ 4 billion will be spent gambling (赌) on the event. According to Media Life magazine, the event will bring in $ 500 million in advertising income this year, topping the post – season income of every US professional league, including that of the NBA.A. Husbands against wives.B. The players will go all out for the games.C. But that doesn’t mean money isn’t involved.D. College students will ignore piles of homework.E. People are willing to spend more money on watching it.F. It begins on March 15 and lasts through the beginning of April.G. Many people had never even heard of the university before the tournament.专项练习四Everyone knows that the Frenchmen are romantic, the Italians are fashionable and the Germans are serious. Are these just stereotypes or is there really such a thing as national character? And if there is, can it affect how a nation succeed or fail?At least one group of people is certain that it can. A recent survey of the top 500 entrepreneurs (企业家) in the UK found that 70% felt that their efforts were not appreciated by the British public. Britain is hostile (敌意的) to success, they said. It has a culture of jealousy(嫉妒). 1 Jealousy is sometimes known as the “green –eyed monster” and the UK is its home.Scientists at Warwich University in the UK recently tested this idea. They gathered a group of people together and gave each an imaginary amount of money. 2 Those given a little were given the chance to destroy the large amount of money given to others – but at the cost of losing their own. Two thirds of the people tested agreed to do this.3 .But there is also opposite evidence. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development recently reported that the UK is now the world’s fourth largest economy. That is not bad for people who are supposed to hate success. People in the UK also work longer hours than anyone else in Europe. So the British people are not lazy, either.“It is not really success that the British dislike,” says Carey Cooper, a professor of management at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology. “It’s people using their success in a way that seems proud or unfair or which separates them from their roots.”4They set out to do things in their way. They work long hours. By their own efforts they become millionaires. 5 .It hardly seems worth following their example. If they were more friendly, people would like them more. And more people want to be like them.A. This seems to prove that the entrepreneurs were right to complain.B.The one who owns most money in the end is the winner.C.As a result, the survey said, entrepreneurs were “unloved, unwanted and misunderstood.”D.It is not true that British people are born jealous of others` success.E. Some were given a little, others a great deal.F. But instead of being happy they complain that nobody loves them.G. Perhaps it is the entrepreneurs who are the problem.专项练习五1 When a starving man gets a meal, he begins to think about an overcoat; when an executive getsa new sports car, visions of country clubs and pleasure beats dance into view.The many wants of mankind might be regarded as making up several levels. 2 .The first and most basic level of wants involves food. Once this want is satisfied, a second level of wants appears: clothing and some sort of shelter. By the end of World War II these wants were satisfied for a great majority of Americans. 3 It included such items as automobile sand new houses.By 1957 or 1958 this third level of wants was fairly well satisfied. Then, in the late 1950s a fourth level of wants appeared: the “li fe-enriching”level. While the other levels involve physical satisfaction-the feeding, comfort, safety, and transportation of the human body-this level stresses mental needs for recognition, achievement and happiness. It includes a variety of goods and serv ices, many of which could be called “luxury” items. Among them are vacation trips, the best medical care, and entertainment. 4One this level, a greater percentage of consumer spending goes to services, while on the first three levels more is spent on goods. Will consumers raise their sights to a fifth level of wants as their income increases, or will they continue to demand luxuries and personal services on the fourth level?A fifth level probably would involve wants that can be achieved best by community action. Consumers may be spending more on taxes to pay for government action against disease, ignorance, crime and prejudice. 5 In this way, we can enjoy more fully the good things on the first four levels.A.Then a third level appeared.B.Human wants seem endless.C.When there is money enough to satisfy one level of wants, another level appears.D.There are several levels of wants in one’s life.E.At this stage, we now may seek to ensure the health, safety, and leisure.F.Also included here are fancy foods and the latest styles in clothing.G.Different people have different wants on each level.专项练习六We are all called upon to make a speech at some point in life, but most of us don’t do a very good job. 1 .So, you have to give a speech—and you are terrified. You get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you stumble(结结巴巴)over words, you talk too long, and you bore your audience. Later you think, “Thank Goodness, it’s over. I’m just not good at public speaking. I hope I never h ave to do that again.”Cheep up! 2 . Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making. Ask yourself the purpose of your speech. What is the occasion? Why are you speaking? Then, gather as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of your time doing your research. Then spend plenty of your time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible, and use pictures, charts, and graphs if they help you make your points more clearly. 3 . Don’t talk over their heads, and don’t talk down to them. Treat youraudience with respect. They will appreciate your thoughtfulness.Just remember: Be prepared. Know your subject, your audience, and the occasion. Be brief.4 . And be yourself. Let your personality come through so that you make person-to-person contact with your audience.If you follow these simple steps, you will see that you don’t have to be afraid of public speaking. In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more speeches! You’re not convinced yet? 5 .A. It doesn’t have to be that bad.B. Take several deep breaths before your speech.C. This article gives some advice on how to give a good speech.D. Say what you have to say and then stop.E. Don’t say what you aren’t familiar with.F. Never forget your audience.G. Give it a try and see what happens.专项练习七There is an English saying:“ 1._.” Until recently, few people took the saying seriously. Now, however, doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body. 2. ___ Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their hearts, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise. 3._. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs. The group that tolerated(忍耐) the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program. 4.___.5.___.

As a result of these discoveries, some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics in which they help to improve their patients’ condition by encouraging them to laugh.C. The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemicals in the brain which diminish both stress and pain.D. It increases blood pressure, the heart beating and breathing; it also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach and even the feet.E. Although laughter helps cure the disease, doctors still can not put this theory into clinic practice.F. Laughter is the best medicine.G. They have found that laughter really can improve people’s health.专项练习八Why do some people have many friends while others do not? 1 However, it is not so. Let’s look at two psychological experiments which will give you the key to happy interpersonal relations.The first experiment is called the “Hawthorne effect” after Hawthorne, Illinois, where the experiment took place. A group of psychologists examined the work patterns of two groups of workers in the Western Electric Company. 2 .The psychologists changed the working conditions for one group twice but left the other group alone. They were surprised to find that productivity increase on both occasions and in both groups. They concluded that the increase in productivity came from the attention given to the workers by the management. It had increased their motivation (积极性) and so they had worked harder. In other words, if you take an interest in others ,they will want to please you and you will have good relations with them.3 After Martin Luther King, Jr was killed in the 1960s, a teacher, Jane Elliott, living in an all –white town decided to help her class of young children understand why the Civil Rights Movement had been necessary in America.She divided the class into two groups: one with blue eyes and the other with brown eyes. Other eye colours such as hazel or green were excluded from his exercise. Then she told the class that brown –eyed people were cleverer than blue –eyed ones because of an agent (化学作用) for brown colour found in their blood. Blue – eyed people were stupid, lazy and not to be trusted. Jane Elliott did not need to say any more. The brown – eyed students quickly got used to their new role as the leaders of the class. The blue –eyed students became quiet and withdrawn. Then she discovered something very interesting. Four poor brown – eyed readers began to read fluently in a way they had never done before. 4 .So if you want to be successful and happy, take an interest in others whether they are your classmates or workmates. Congratulate them on their successes and sympathize(同情) with them in their troubles. 5 .A. Before the experiment the management talked to both groups of workers and explained that they wanted to find the best working environment for them.B. Remember that the way you treat others will decide their attitude and behaviour to you.C. The second experiment shows what happens to personal relations if you are rude to or ignore(忽略)others.D. The ones who have more friends usually are those who care about others.E. Jane Elliott had shown that the way people are treated affects not only their behaviour but also their confidence and their performance.F.You may even imagine that this ability was something they were born with because it seems so effortless to them.G. The second experiment tells us what teachers said has a great effect on the students.专项练习九The seven Cs of a good letterWhat is the secret of writing a good letter? Here are two main ones.

Here are some tips that will help you in dealing with stress(压力) and anxiety.Study regularlyOne of the most important ways of avoiding test anxiety is to prepare well in advance. Study regularly for a few hours every day. 1 .Reduce study pressure(压力)If students are not able to deal with anxiety or nervousness, they could talk to their teachers, student counselors(辅导员), parents or friends. Parents should also avoid pressurizing(加压) their kids to do well. 2 Then your children can study without any tension(紧张). Another important point that arises here is neither the students nor the parents should compare the children with their other classmates and friends.Physical fitness3 Many times due to anxiety students avoid sleep and starve themselves. They should sleep for at least 6-7 hours a day and eat nutritious and healthy food. Exercising regularly is equally important as talking to friends and socializing(社交).4Plan your studies well. Chart(制图) out a timetable and take proper breaks between studying. Along with the study time, allot (分配) time to relax and do what you love to do. Practicing simple breathing skills will also help reduce stress.5 While it is important to gain good scores in tests, it is not the most important thing in life. Learning to deal with nervousness and stress will not only help them to do well in school tests, but also in their future life.A. Prepare scheduleB. Listen carefully in classC. Do not forget to eat and sleep properly.D. It helps in increasing the confidence of students.E. Create a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere (放松的气氛) at home.F. Students should remember that tests are just a part of life.G. Test and exam time causes a lot of nervousness in students.答案:1D 2E 3C 4A 5F8.Dear Boris,1After I had spent a week with my English family, I slowly began to understand their English a little better. 2 Students in my group are from different cities of Britain and their dialects are different too! Some of their accents are quite strong and they also have their own words and expressions.3 Before I came to England I had thought that fish and chips were eaten every day. That’s quite wrong! I get rather annoyed now when I hear all the foolish words about typical English food.I had expected to see “London fog”. Do you remember our texts about it? We had no idea that most of this “thick fog” disappeared many years ago when people stopped using coal in their homes. But the idea to speak about weather was very helpful. 4 On the other hand, habits are different. People tell me what is typical British here in London is not always typical in Wales or Scotland. 5But what is ordinary for all British is that they follow traditions(传统). Probably Britain has more living signs of its past than many other countries. And people have always been proud of having ancient (古老的) buildings in capitals, big cities and the countryside.I will tell you more about Britain in my other letters.Love from Britain.A. The weather in London is really changeable.B. I have difficulty in understanding my classmates.C. Thanks for your nice letter.D. The family I live with are friendly.E. It’s very different from what I learned at school.F. Local habits and traditions are not the same as what we knew.G. But it’s not the language that’s different and surprising.答案:1C 2E 3G 4A 5F9.My mother is a diligent and kind woman. She is very busy from morning till night.

A.Saying you’re sorry is more than just words.B.The other person will probably feel better,too.C.It’s always easy to get along with other people.D.Sometimes a heartfelt “I’m sorry” fixes everything right away.E.Everyone needs to apologize when they do something wrong.F.But you can feel good about apologizing or fixing the mistake.G.Just because someone apologizes,it doesn’t mean you have to be friends.答案1.A 2.B 3.D 4.F 5.G5.English LearningEveryone knows English is one of the most important subjects in middle schools.And we always know learning English is very important,but few students know how to learn English well. 1I think if we have a right way to learn English,and we work hard,then we will learn English well.But what is the right way? 2 Second,everyone knows remembering new words is important,but how to remember them?

us ,are sensitive to high temperatures.__1__It is difficult for us to know when the animal is in danger of overheating.So here are some tips to help you keep your dogs healthy during a very hot summer.First ensure that the dog hair is well groomed(梳洗)according to the season.For colder seasons,winter and fall,you can keep the coat long,but when summer arrives,have your pet groomed.__2__Provide a comfortable place for your pet to rest and sleep.The pet's room should not be higher than 77~88 F.If it is a very hot summer day,put a fan near the area where your animal sleeps.__3__Check your dog's water bowl.Make sure the water bowl is at least half full at alltimes.During summer,the water in the bowl can become warm.__4__During summer,there are more bugs.Be sure to protect your pet against ticks(壁虱),fleas and worms.Remember that fleas and ticks can be dangerous for your dog,and the worms they carry can also be transmissible to humans.Furthermore,the heartworm is a pest that affects dogs and spreads through the bites of mosquitoes.It can be prevented using preventive treatments.__5__ In the case,you need to do a fast 2minute stop at the convenience store,leave the window open and park the car in a cool shaded area.A.You should prevent dog diseases in summer.B.You can even use a cool damp cloth before the fan;it will cool down the room.

E—dictionaries may be light and compact(简洁的) more so than any paper dictionary.__1__It depends on which one you buy. To me, these are pretty much the limits to their advantages.I think edictionaries should be limited in their use in classrooms. __2__Edictionaries are much more expensive. In Japan, they cost as little as 10,000 yen (US $100) much as 40,000 yen, depending on how many functions you want (or think you want) and depending on how fashionable you are. My trusty Random House paper dictionary is copyrighted at 1995, cost me a mere US$12.95 plus tax.Edictionaries are more fragile(易碎的). Drop your paper dictionary. Go ahead. Hold it above your head and drop it. __3__Edictionaries need batteries. Batteries are temperature sensitive. Batteries cost money, too. Edictionaries have keypads. Typing in the spelling of a word is harder and more time consuming than looking through pages and using the index at the top of each page.__4__Such little devices beep(嘟嘟声) when you press the buttons, but it is very disturbing to some people in a classroom situation or library.Finally, let's consider making corrections or additions. No dictionary is perfect, paper version or electronic. However, when you find something you'd like to change in the e-dictionary, you can't do anything about it. You can pencil in some notes with the paper type. Similarly, if you learn a word that isn't in the dictionary, a few notes of a pencil make it easy to increase its memory capacity.__5__And, for those students whose habit is to mark certain words with a highlight pen for ease of future reference, again, the paper dictionary wins out.A.But it is impossible to do so with a keypad model.B.They may even contain more words and expressions.C.Sometimes edictionaries trouble you and you really don't know how to get rid of them.D. Now, try this with any lightweight plastic edictionary, and you'll be picking up the pieces.E. That huge, heavy paper dictionary that you see in your library looks like a building block in size and weight.F. Edictionaries have advantages as well as disadvantages.G. Let's take a look at the following reasons.答案1B 2G 3D 4C 5A18.Tips for cooking on a Tight ScheduleFrom my experience,there are three main reasons why people don’t cook more often: ability,money and time, 1 Money is a topic I’ll save for another day.So today I want to give you some wisdom about how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen.Here are three tips for great cooking on a tight schedule:1.Think ahead.The moments when I think cooking is a pain are when I’m already hungry and there is nothing ready to eat.So think about of the coming week.When will you have time to cook?

Six leather-bound ledgers (皮革账本) discovered in the universityshow this.36He lived in the most expensive rooms provided for a rich student at his time.37He had someone to clean his room, make his bed and take care of the fire in his bright rooms. He hired a dishwasher, a clothes washer and a man who cleaned his shoes. A tailor ( 裁缝 ), hatter and barbermade sure he was well presented. A chimney cleaner and a coalman kept his fire going. Christ’s College ’s basic food was meat and beer.38Darwin ’s bill topped 636 pounds during his three years of study at Cambridge. Later hedescribed this time as the most joyful of his happy life. That large sum (金额) would have beenfairly common for a student at Cambridge in the 19th century.39In those days Cambridge was full of rich students living a pretty good life and Darwin wasjust one of them. 40 And thus he had plenty of time for socializing or private study. He would be out shooting, collecting beetles, doing his scientific hobbies or visiting friends. He played cards anddrank wine at night, just like students always have.A. Thanks to the richness, he was able to hire servants to help with the daily life.B. The findings were published on the Internet.C.

Six months ago, he asked for Khalid to be taken to the hospital.37Finally on Monday the 20-year-old patient was successfully taken to King Fahd Medical Cityin Riyadh after the Saudi King arranged(安排) for his special air transportation from the southerncity of Jazan. Saudi government organizations worked with Shaeri’s construction department to accomplish this task.38 A forklift (铲车)was also used to carry him to an ambulance(救护车) which tookhim to a local airport in Jazan. An aircraft then flew him to Riyadh.“ We have been waiting for this moment for a long time.39“ Naser Makke, the patient s cousin,’told R euters excitedly.“ The King had given his orders to the government of health to do all the arrangements to transfer the patient fortreatment in a safe way. May God protect our King and give him the long life.”According to Reuters, Shaeri was reported to have a brother and sister who are alsooverweight. 40Local media reported that the Saudi Health Ministry has already dealt with other over-weight patients this year, including two sisters who weighed 661 pounds and 771 pounds. A. But compared to Shaeri, what makes them better is that they are able to walk.B. He had been in hospitals for several times but that didn ’tsave him from getting fatter.C.

It can help you present your ideas and get your product to the right companies. One company that is very reputable ( 名誉好的 ) is “ Lambert and Lambert in Minnesota ”. 38 If they think your product is marketable (有路的 ), they will help you to get it to the right company.Call the company and make an appointment. You will want to bring in a model of your invention and a complete description of your ideas. 39 Then when you meet with them, you can present it and they will tell you how marketable it is.

In fact, the truth is far from it.36They also know the teaching theory well. They should know how things should be taught and how one can be inspired to learn. Also, they need to have an idea about classroom management and students’psychology (心理学) .Now it can be really annoying for a teacher if someone says teaching is one of the easiestjobs around, because everyone just needs to be taught for a few hours a day.37However, teachers work longer to come up with ways to make the knowledge appear more interesting to students and help them learn better.38And this is a big reason why more people decide to choose teaching as a career. However, good teachers choose to make good use of the break, by enrolling(注册) themselves for workshops on teaching, classroom management, and related things.All teachers are not the same, as against what is widely believed.39Every teacher is different and has a different approach (方法)to teaching.40 A teacher has meetings to attend, and is responsible for( ⋯⋯ ) organizing school events. An important duty of a teacher is to prepare the progress report of each student anddiscuss it with his or her parents.In a word, teachers ought to be respected for what they do, and we should never forgettheir great contribution (贡献) to our success in life.A. A teacher has many things to do rather than just teach.B. It is true that teachers get a lot more holidays than others.C. A good teacher is one who motivates students to overcome challenges.D.

Inhale (吸气) deeply, and then exhale. Repeat this 10 times and watch how you lighten up your mood. It can help people feel calm.You forget to smile at people around you. Smiling is not just a happiness supporter for you but for others. In fact, the more you smile at people, the more they are eager to help you.37And it brings so much positive energy that you ’ll need to make great friends.You forget to say thank you.38It is also about your overall feelings and imagination:of being thankful for little things that you receive.Feel good, be thankful and you’ll be always happy. So don’tforget to express your thanks to others.You forget to taste your experiences. Do you always hurry with what you are doing?39 Or do you always think that there ’s not enough for you to enjoy? Take some time to enjoy the taste of the food you are eating, or the comfort of the chair you are sitting on.40You surf the Internet, watch TV, and go to work. You are so caught up with all these things that you have forgotten to spend some quiet time. Take a moment to sit down, and do nothing — feeling the silence and being happy.A.You forget to stretch ( 伸展 ) like a cat.B.You forget to stay quiet for a while.C.And they all share the same basic instruction: breathe.D. Do you always feel that you ’re running out of time or money?E. Saying thank you is not just about appreciating someone who did you a favor.F. Have you ever paid more attention to your study?G. That ’s because smiling breaks the ice between strangers.7Living away from your country can be a really interesting and unforgettable experience. Butat the same time it has very important effects (影响)on your life.36The major effect, and also a very common one, is that once you start a regular life awayfrom home, you miss everything.37Little things like sitting on a Sunday morning watching TV alone instead of havinga nice chat with your mom make you realize how valuable your family really is.38 Since you are living in a place with different customs and traditions from yours, you have to be able to develop yourself in conditions which you are not familiar with. This means making new friends, accepting different opinions, and catching every opportunity you have to goto new places.The most significant effect of living away from home is the independence that grows inside you. 39 There is no one else to go to school, clean your room, and wash your clothes. Being independent will help you get over many difficulties.40You have to remember that all changes are difficult, but it is necessary to gothrough them to build your character and it helps you appreciate everything you have.A.Bad things don ’tlast forever and you have to make the best out of them.B.Missing your family and the attention they all paid to you is a very usual thing to do.C.Living far from home, even for a short period of time, can be really hard at the beginning.D.Living on your own far from your family gives you a lot of experience of organizing your life.E.The purpose of this passage is to discuss the three main effects that living in another countrycan influence your personal life.F.Foreign people are kind to you and your classmates and they understand the power of love.G.Living in a foreign country would mean learning how to accept another type of society and culture into your daily life.8Having a shy style isn ’tnecessarily a problem. It ’s perfectly OK to take time to warm up new people and situations. Here are some tips for beating shy feelings.Start small with people you know. Practice social behaviors like eye contact, confident body language, introductions, small talk, asking questions, and invitations with the people you feel most comfortable around. Smile. Build your confidence this way.36.Think of some conversation starters.37 . Think of conversation openers, like introducing yourself, giving a compliment, or asking a question. Being ready with a conversation starter (or a few) makes it easier to approach someone.Rehearse( 排演 ) what to say.38 . Rehearse it out loud, maybe even in front of the mirror. Then just do it. Don ’tworry if it’s not exactly like you have practiced or if it’s not perfect. Also few of the things confident people do are perfect. Next time, it’ll be better because it will be easier.39. Find group activities where you can be with people who share your interests. Give yourself a chance to practice socializing (交际 ) with these new people, and get to know them slowly. People who are shy often worry about failing or how others will think about them. So treat yourself like your own best friend. Encourage yourself instead of expecting to fail.Most of all, be yourself.It ’s OK to try out different conversational ways you see others use.40. Being the real you and daring to let yourself be noticed are what attract friends.A. It ’s important to make friends.B. Then try to do this with new friends, too.C. Give yourself a chance to take part in activities.D. Write down what you want to say beforehand.E. Often, the hardest part of talking to someone new is getting started.F. But say and do what fits your style.G. Shyness is an obvious shortcoming.9We often carry a lot of things when we ’re traveling. 36 On long ones we carry things like passports, visas, etc. Though traveling can be fun, we ’re likely to misplace these things and even lose them because of the excitement of the journey or being too busy or tired. So how canwe carry valuable things safely while traveling?37 Place most of it in a wallet and put the wallet in your main suitcase or bag with a lock-and-key system. Don ’topen it until you reach your destination ( 目的地 ). Guess how much money you ’ll need on the journey, and place this money in a different wallet and carry this in your pocket. 38Next, instead of wearing your jewelry, you can carry your jewelry at the bottom of your suitcase or bag. 39 Many people think that since the purse is always going to be in their hands, it’ll remain safe. But other things like tickets, phone numbers, keys, etc., are all going to go in there. Soyou ’re often going to open your purse for something or the other. What if you just drop it?Then remember to hook ( 钩住 ) the keys. You get those really nice key chains these days that come with a big dog-hook.40 Use one of these to carry your keys. This way, you won’t leave the keys in a restaurant or any other place.Hope all the above tips for traveling will help you.A. So you ’ll know what to bring.B. It ’s a kind of vacation, but without your parents.C. Spend money from this wallet till you get to your destination.D. Firstly, distribute ( 分开 ) your money if you ’re traveling alone.E.

Evolving (演变)over the course of human history, languages are a reflection of our cultural and societal attitudes. Today, surrounded(包围) by social media, television, movies, and, of course, books, the ability to read and write is important to expressing one ’s feelings. Most humans acquire language in early childhood and speak fluently when they are about three years old, but our continued relationshipwith language gives shape and meaning to our lives. 36(1)Take it slow. Many readers feel that they read too slowly, especially compared with others.37 The best readers are flexible(灵巧的)—slowing down when needed —and always have a dictionary at hand.(2)Read aloud. When humans first began reading written words, it was unusual to read insilence. 38 Try listening to the author reading their own work — you ’ll be surprised to find how clearly it comes through on the page.(3)Write. Writing and reading go hand-in-hand: how and what you read affects how and what you write, and the best readers often make the best writers. But while much can be learned from close, repeated readings, there are many pleasures to language that can only be experienced through the practice of writing.39(4) Tell your friends. All of the literature is essentially communication from an individual’s inner voice to an audience.40It ’s a good way to see the world from someone else’s eyes and, in the process, carefully examine your own reaction to what you’re reading.A. But the truth is that the faster you read, the less likely you are to understand fully what you’re reading.B. Can you remember the first piece of writing that transported you to another world?C. There is something magical about sharing books with friends or a book club.D. Try writing every day for a month, and you will never read the same again.E. Reading out loud is one of the best ways to improve your reading ability.F. Here are 4 ways to become a better reader.G.

You can pick something that you love to read, not forschool. They can be ancient martial ( 武术 ) arts, computers, or fashion design. You name it, there are books about it.What ’s Your Type? Do you prefer fiction or nonfiction (or both)? Fiction books, like novels,can transport you to another world or help you imagine something beyond your own experience. Nonfiction books give you the who, what, when, and why of something.37. Many of them read like novels from start to finish.Read the description. The reviews and quotes on the back and inside covers of many booksgive you an idea of what the book is about. They can also help you pick future books, too. If you find a book you really like, take a minute to read the quotes and see which authors praised the book. 38 .Find a Family Favorite.Which book did your mother love best when she was at your age? 39. Find out and give them a read — then you can share your thoughts about the book. Finally,you ’ll probably enjoy what you ’re reading a lot more if you find a quiet place andmake time for the book.40 . You can put on some good music, get yourself some tea and letyourself be carried away by the book. You ’ll see that time does fly when you ’re reading something you love!A. How about your brothers and sisters?B. They tell stories using facts — but that doesn’tmean they’re boring.C. Reading is a good way to improve your English.D. Most reading is best enjoyed when you can concentrate ( 聚精会神 ) on it.E. Often, they ’ll have similar styles and you might find books you like by those authors, too.F. So you should read as much as possible when you are free.G. Reading on your own isn ’tlike reading for school.13Many kids go to day camps during summer. Day camps can be a lot of fun, but the activities are familiar.36It might take you a little while to get familiar with the place. But you come home every night, just like you do during the school year.Sleepaway camp offers more excitement because you ’ll be there all day and night. It ’s a kind of vacation, but without your parents. You’ll probably sleep in a tent(帐篷)with other kids attending the camp. Your parents should not worry about your food.37Some sleepaway camps are for both boys and girls, which means that there are both boys and girls at the camp.38Often these all-girl and all-boy camps meet up for some special purposes.Usually, the camp mails out information to your family before you go.39Most of all,you’ll also probably need to bring a health report. Let coaches know about any health problem you have. Just like any vacation, you ’ll need to pack a bag full of the clothes.40Food is generally provided, but you might need some extra money for snacks or other small expenses(费用).A. So you ’ll know what to bring.B. You’ll learn how to get along with others.C. You couldn ’tmiss your parents at night.D. You ’ll need to change clothes while you ’re there.E. Other camps are just for girls or just for boys.F. You start camp in the morning and go home in the afternoon.G. You ’ll probably eat together in the open air and you’ll have to share the food with the other kids.14When you ’re dealing with a stressful situation or going through a hard time, people in your life can help you. When someone who cares knows what you’re going through, it helps you feel understood and not so alone.36. Problems seem smaller when you talk about them with the right person. You can do better and find out solutions more easily when you share your problems.There are lots of different ways to get and give help. 37 . Other times you need advice on things. Help can be very easy, like a homework project. Or it can go on for a while, like teaching to bring up a failing grade or advising to get through a difficult personal situation.It ’s likely you remember times someone helped you. 38 . Friends helped you get through sadness or deal with disappointment. Teachers might have guided you through the college application process (大学申请 ). 39 . You might give a hand to your classmate who met difficulty.Friends, parents, teachers and other adults can be great resources when you need help. There are also times when you need the extra help that a professional can provide best. Doctors can offer specialized help for a health problem. 40 .A. Parents taught you to stop a bad habit.B. Sometimes you just want to hear an encouraging word.C. Turn to the professional people for help when you need.D. Difficulties are everywhere in your life.E. And you can also remember times when you helped others.F. Having a right person means a lot.G. You need to learn to give help in the right way.参照答案1: 36-40 BEGFD【文章粗心】快乐的人和不快乐的人之间的差别是什么?快乐的人和不快乐的人做的事情有什么差别?36.B 。

We should have more friends of the other sex instead of one or two.● Contact students of the other sex warmly, generously and sincerely.3 In that case, it is very difficult for you to make a lot of friends, as no one likes a person who is too shy to say a word. If you are too shy, you can also find a way out. First of all, you can contact the students with the same interest and hobby with you.4 If you keep doing like that, little by little, you will gladly find you are also as free to express yourself as others.● Don’t fall into the ditch (泥潭) of early love.Teenage boys and girls are rich in feeling and full of imagination. They are easy to regard the friendship as a sign of love and fall in love with each other at an early age. In my opinion, boys and girls at middle school are too young to shoulder the heavy duty of love. 5 An apple won’t taste sweet until it is fully ripe(成熟的).

Nothing.You say,"I'm not quite ready yet.7With every day that passes, you are the oldest you’ll ever be again.

We even say "yes" to things that we know deep down won't bring us satisfaction. 3 Do those often enough and you’ll be throwing up the feelings of unhappiness. Say “yes” only when it’s relevant and weigh up each request or opportunity that comes your way.Be a little selfish.If you’re too busy putting others before yourself, you won't have time for yourself. If you make too much time for others, you can't make time for yourself. If you make others a priority(优先), you and your needs are no longer a priority.

Listen to speeches Whatever.Continue with small steps every day.The whole idea is to not get discouraged from the beginning and take things day by day. Just start small and always create small things. 3Start on your change by doing a small piece of work.The whole idea is to start. Don't delay. Without a start, all your inspiration is for nothing. The best way to start is to simply do so with a small piece of work. Don't judge yourself or base you start on others’ standards. 4 You know best.5With the small changes, you'd have created a habit by now.The idea of a habit is that you’d feel not comfortable with yourself if you don't continue with the small changes.

Then how to spend more time in reading?Have a goal.Some people set unrealistic goals for themselves like reading one book a week. Obviously you don’t have to be as radical as that.

On the bus, on the subway, on your lunch break or when you're at the gym. 2 I promise!Just start.Sometimes our mind will make up all kinds of excuses not to do something. Not to get out of bed. Not to clean the house. Not to shower. The trick to get over this mental block (思维阻滞) is to just pick up the book and read! 3 Just do it. Once you start reading (if it's a good book), it’s quite difficult to stop!Always have your book in reach.Wherever I go, I've always got a book with me. Whenever I'm at home, a book is always near. That way, I don’t have to think much when the idea that I should maybe spend my free time reading comes into my head. 4Reading is a pleasure.Obviously, to get yourself motivated to read, read something that interests you. 5 If you’re drawn to the book, the more likely you’ll be excitedly to pick up and read it.1.__________2. __________3. __________4. __________5. __________有效词汇的积累1.____________2. ____________3. ____________4. ____________5.____________6. ____________7. ____________8. ____________模拟11 得分__________How to deal with exam failuresYou spent many nights burning the midnight old.

Though he became prime minister in 1962, he lost all of the other elections he participated in. Abraham Lincoln did not become a successful businessman and lawyer, and he also lost a lot of public elections. But just imagine if they had allowed failures to get the best of them, they would not have achieved worldwide recognition.Try again.Check if there is a possibility you can retake the exam. 3 In the meantime, you can put more effort into what you are doing.Prevent yourself from falling into depression.The last thing you want to happen is to be depressed. 4 You will lose proper concentration, you will not sleep and eat well,you will lose a lot of weight, and you will get sick so easily.5You also do not want to go through a lot of stress. Stress is often one of the leading causes of anxiety anddepression. Take a break. Go out with friends or your family. Take a trip. Do something productive with your time like taking up a sport.

Don’t wire money to strangers, to sellers who insist on wire transfers for payment, or to anyone who pretends to be a relative or friend in an emergency and wants to keep the request a secret.After a disaster, give only to known charities.After a disaster, give to a charity existing for long, rather than one that has come out suddenly. These kinds of charities probably don't have the infrastructure (基础设施) to get help to the affected areas or people. 3 Remember there's no sure thing in investing.4 When you hear statements that insist you act now, that promise big money back with little or no financial risk, or that demand that you send cash immediately, report them at ftc. gov.Talk to your doctor before you buy heath products or treatments.Ask about research that supports a product's effects - and possible risks or side effects. In addition, buy prescription drugs( 处方药) only from normal medicine shops. 51.__________2. __________3. __________4. __________5. __________有效词汇的积累1.____________2. ____________3. ____________4. ____________5.____________6. ____________7. ____________8. ____________9. ____________ 10. ____________ 11. ____________ 12. ____________参考答案1 GDFEA2 FEDBG3 AGFCE4 FEADC5 CBDFE6 FGDCB7 DECGA8 BDCEA9 ADEGD10 ABECG11 FEGAB12 FACEG。
