北京市第十三中学高一七选五专题英语测试(附答案)

北京市第十三中学高一七选五专题英语测试(附答案)The hardest thing to do is keep trying hard to achieve our goal when we see no signs of change. This is because our brains like observable evidence that our efforts are getting us closer to what we want and who we want to become. ___1___ So how do we keep motivated and continue fighting when it seems to make no progress?Keep a detailed daily record. Write down any and all observable changes, even if you feel like they are not worthy to be written down. Those kinds of changes usually do not continue in our memories, so we may not be able to notice all the changes that are actually happening. ___2___ Don’t compare with anyone else. Celebrate what is happening in your journey rather than looking at someone else’s path and thinking abo ut what happened to them. ___3___ You don’t need to come in “first place”.Question your expectations. Remember to often ask yourself: ___4___ Unrealistic expectations increase frustration and disappointment and can be difficult for you to recover from when unmet. ___5___ If you stare at the minute hand of a clock, the passing of an hour will seem like a lifetime. When you are working on a goal, it is important to diversify（使多样化）how you spend your time. Doing so will reduce your disappointment if your goal is not happening fast enough. A．Have a life outside of your goal.B．Remember that life is not a race.C．However, things don’t always go smoothly.D．What do I expect to achieve by setting this goal?E．Undoubtedly, our efforts will pay off sooner or later.F．Are my expectations for how and when I meet my goal realistic?G．Small changes, when gathered, eventually lead to the big change that we long for.Many people think of sharks as dangerous monsters. But human beings cause a far greater danger to them than they do to us. Although shark attacks do occur, they are quite rare. According to one estimate, however, humans kill 100 million sharks every year. ____6____Why should we save the sharks?Sharks take up the top position on the food chain in the ocean. As sharks die off, the population of the animals that sharks consume will increase. This, in turn, means that the number of the creatures those animals eat will drop. ____7____ Fish that eat algae (藻类) are also included. This can cause algae to spread so much that it damages coral reefs.____8____ The ocean not only produces more oxygen than all the rainforests on Earth combined, but also removes half of the man-made greenhouse gas from the atmosphere. Once sharks die off, the global ecosystem will be upset, affecting all creatures including human beings.Don’t use shark productsFirst, vitamin energy drinks and leather goods can be made from shark parts. ____9____ In addition, shark meat is sold around the world, sometimes under misleading names such as rock salmon or whitefish.Shark fin soup is a popular dish. However, the process of getting fins is cruel. Fishermen cut the shark’s fins off and then throw the shark back into the water, still alive. ____10____ Sharks breathe by swimming, so a shark that can’t swim will die.A．It is time for children to learn about sharks.B．Shark oil is also used in many popular beauty products.C．Then the shark dies slowly, sometimes over several days.D．Actually, the killing of sharks will affect the whole planet.E．People in some countries are especially keen on shark products.F．Among them are some sea fish that humans consume every day.G．This number is a warning that many kinds of sharks may die out.Volunteering offers vital help to people in need and the community.______11______.Volunteering can help you find friends, learn new skills, and even advance your career.Volunteering can connect you to others. ______12______ Unpaid volunteers are often the glue (黏合剂).

In fact, it has been a question for parents for ages.___16___. Remain positive at least 70 percent of the time when dealing with teenagers. Young teenagers will always act negatively to the naggings(好唠叨的人). Every time a teenager is pushed and nagged, they will pull further back. So, instead of screaming “clean that room”, try something along the lines of “I would appreciate it if you cleaned the room”. It would really help me out today.Talk to them often and keep open a line of communication. By doing this the teenagers will not feel like a prisoner, but more like a partner. ____17____.Appreciating what they have done, instead of focusing on what they have not done. When a job is done in their minds, avoid immediately saying “you left A undone and B was done poorly”.____18____. Then suggest that the job is almost done, but a few things need changed.Keep in mind that teenag ers are still kids. Don’t make them a house servant. A housework list is fine. ____19____. Make sure you allow them to have at least the same amount of free time as the parents.____20____. Although the results may not come for another 10 years, teenagers learn from the actions of their parents. By working hard, staying positive and putting family first, it is extremely likely that your teenager will become a responsible person.A．Set a good exampleB．Point out what was done rightC．Encourage and support your teenD．Talk to your teenager about your expectations for himE．However, they still need their own spare time to be a kidF．However, with some work there are ways to motivate teenagersG．This is necessary for teenagers as they are fighting for independenceLet’s face it: Nobody really likes doing chores (家务) around the house. But at a certain age, our kids are old enough to start lending a hand with the housework. ____21____ But what exactly are the benefits that young children and teenagers get from doing chores?Chores help teach life skills. They’re young now, but they won’t be kids forever! Washing clothes, cooking and cleaning the room are just some of the skills kids will need once they finally move out. ___22___ So it is really important to make kids learn them at home.Chores teach kids how to follow directions. Whether you are giving instructions to a small child or a teenager, describing what you are expecting them to do and then doing it will teach them how to follow directions.___23___ Remember, only age-proper instructions can help them learn this important skill.Chores teach responsibility and respect. Having your children clean up their own messes will give them a sense of responsibility. Task them with assisting in making the family’s meal s.___24___These will help them understand all that their parents do to keep the home running smoothly and be more respectful of it.___25___Everyone in our home has their own jobs to do in order to allow our house to function. It not only lessens our own stress level and to-do list, but it teaches our kids that we all must work together as a team. They may complain, but they’ve come to understand that the chores they are tasked with each day or week are all a bigger part of keeping the family functioning. A．Chores encourage teamwork.B．They can benefit from doing this.C．Or let them sort their own clothes.D．Speak to them at a level they'll understand.E．These are also things that schools do not fully teach.F．Encouraging kids to do chores will build their confidence.G．Chores help improve planning and time management skills.Good study habits play an important role in raising confidence and getting higher marks in exams. Of course, it’s usually hard to build lasting study habits at first, but it won’t be too longbefore your new good habits become part of your routine.____26____Set a daily study time. Studying for a test begins well before you reach exam day.____27____By reserving a specific time each day for studying, it can be easier to focus, because y ou won’t have to worry about any other things competing for your attention.Arrange your study space. Choose an area that is clean, well-lit, and free of distractions. Avoid sitting in front of the television or around a busy part of your home. Some people like to study in the library or coffee shop.____28____Turn off your electronics. Electronic devices are a big distraction, so remember to turn off your phone and television. Keep your cell phone away from you, as it will distract you.____29____When you need to use your computer while studying, stay away from social media, emails, and off-topic websites.____30____Plan a small reward for each day you study, such as time playing your favorite game, a piece of candy, or money to set aside for something you really want. Think of a weekly reward for meeting each daily goal that week, such as a few hours with your friends.A．You should set aside time every day to study.B．Only check your messages during break time.C．Reward yourself for meeting your study goals.D．Leave yourself enough time for games or time with friends.E．To better your study habits, you can employ efficient ways of studying.F．Break the information down so you’re only dealing with a little each day.G．But this may not work for you if you’re e asily distracted by movement or noises.The aftermath (后果) of an earthquake can be horrible, but it is important that you are attentive and focused after an earthquake happens. Fires, gas leaks, and injuries are all dangers you might face after an earthquake.___31___By assessing the safety of your location and following the directions of local authorities, your chances of surviving the aftermath of an earthquake will be much higher.Check yourself for injuries. ___32___ If you’re bleeding, lift your injur y up and put pressure on it. If your injury is serious, call for help using a cellphone or try to get rescuers’ attention.___33___ Use a cellphone to call for help if you have one. If you can’t use a phone, try knocking loudly on something nearby until rescuers find you.Aftershocks are smaller earthquakes which follow the main shock of an earthquake.___34___ So you should prepare to move to a safe location, like an open outdoor space or a structurally sound building.Exit the building and go to a safer place once the shaking has stopped. The structure of the building you’re in may have been weakened by the main earthquake.___35___A．Signal for help if you are trapped.B．They can cause significant damage.C．Remain calm as the earthquake occurs.D．The more prepared you are, the safer you’ll be.E．Make sure you’re not seriously hurt before you do anything.F．After the earthquake, you must get medical treatment in time.G．Therefore, you should leave as soon as possible in case of any aftershocks.Ways to protect eyes from screensToo much screen time may cause serious eye strain (眼疲劳）and even a sharp decline of eyesight. That's a big problem a lot of people are faced with nowadays, especially those who work on a computer. The following tips may be helpful.Get regular eye testsExperts recommend having a comprehensive eye exam every year to detect (探测）problems before they develop. During this test, you should tell the doctor how often you use your phone and your computer. ____36____ Tell your doctor about it, and your eyes can be tested more accurately at that distance.Give your eyes spaceThe closer your phone/computer screen is to your eyes, the harder they have to work to focus.____37____ If this makes it hard for you to read, consider increasing the size of the text rather than moving the screen closer.Take breaksThis may not always be practical if you're quite busy，but it's important not to stare directly at a screen for too long. ____38____ While surveys have shown that many office workers take no more than half an hour a day away from their computer, it's recommended that you take a 15-minute break after every two hours spent at your screen.____39____Staring at a screen continuously for hours on end may make it difficult for you to focus. To avoid thi s, many eye experts recommend the “20-20-20 rule”---looking away from yourphone/computer screen every 20 minutes and focusing on an object at least 20 feet away for at least 20 seconds. The science behind his trick is that looking at objects at a distance relaxes the focusing muscle in the eye. ____40____A．Exercise your eyes.B．Give your eyes a chance to rest.C．Make your screen more eye-friendly.D．Studies show it’s an effective way to reduce tiredness.E．You should also measure the distance from your eyes to your screen at work.F．Make sure that you use your phone or computer in a room where the lighting is bright enough.G．Studies on eye strain suggest that computer screens should be no closer than 40 cm from your face.I was born in the U.S, but grew up in Greece, experiencing the best of both worlds. I began studying French in sixth grade while in Grece. ____41____ I moved to the U.S. at 18 to study at Oakland University. My love of French carried over to college and French became one of my majors. Besides French, I am also majoring in journalism with a dream to travel and write.____42____ I wanted to understand the nature of a culture different from the ones I was familiar with. I wanted to get to know the people and make basic connections. During my stay in France, I maintained a blog and I wrote a lot.Through my study, I got the chance to talk to the locals and share stories and experiences with my host family. ____43____Classes were long, homework was pleasantly challenging, but there was plenty of time in that one month of July to explore the city and see France. The food and the trips were by far the best part of my experience. I was in homestay and all my meals were home-made, French and delicious. ____44____ I also got to see places that I had only ever heard about in my studies.

Cross country is an outdoor endurance (耐久性) sport that can be mentally challenging and fun. ____46____ You’re not only putting one foot in front of the other; you’re also t hinking ahead to barriers and changes in the trail or course.____47____ However, before you begin training and racing, you should be aware of potential injuries and how to avoid them. How can you prevent cross country running injuries? The best ways for outdoor runners to stay healthy include the following running tips:Stretch daily. For all runners and athletes, a regular stretching routine is an important part of conditioning. ____48____Warm up and cool down. Muscles and tendons (跟腱) are less likely to overstretch or tear if they’ve been properly prepared for running and racing.

七选五Reading is good for more than just entertainment.____1____. And the positive effects can be felt at any age: Even before they’ve fully developed their reading skills, kids can benefit from having access to materials and being read to on a regular basis.Reading can boost intelligencePeople who exhibit strong reading skills early in life grow up to be more intelligent. That was the finding of a study published in 2014 that measured the cognitive development of 1, 890 sets of identical twins. When two twins shared the same genes and home environments, early reading skills appeared to be the factor that decided which twin would be better at both verbal tests (like vocabulary( and non-verbal (like reasoning tests). ____2____, the study authors concluded that more emphasis should be placed on teaching strong reading skills to young children.Reading helps increase empathy____3____— it can make you a kinder person as well. According to a study published in 2013, people who consume literary fiction have an easier time sensing and relating to emotions in other people. This effect likely has something to do with the way such books are written: Great literature forces readers to steps outside themselves and empathize with the characters they’re reading about. Reading can lower stressFeel stressed at the end of a long day?____4____. A 2009 study found that reading for just 30 minutes has similar stress-reducing effects to doing 30 minutes of yoga.____5____Even after you put down a book, the effects of reading it are still present in your brain. A 2013 study discovered that when people read books, their brains continue to behave differently hours and even days later. The brains of readers show increased connectivity in the left temporal cortex — the region responsible for language receptivity — even hours after they’ve stopped reading. This suggests that reading can train the mind and boost neural function through a process that’s similar to muscle memory.A．Reading improves your passionB．Reading may change your brainC．Since reading is of significanceD．Reading books doesn’t just make you smarterE．Opening a book is a good way to wind downF．Because reading ability is something that’s learnedG．Committing part of every day to reading books can make you smarter, kinder, and more relaxedWaking Up an Hour Earlier Can Help Fight DepressionAdequate (充足的) sleep is essential for maintaining good physical and mental health. Now, new research has revealed that good health also depends on sleep schedules. In fact, waking up an hour earlier is generally found to help prevent or fight against major depression.This discovery was made in a study conducted by researchers from the University of Colorado in 2021. They found that waking up an hour earlier helps people who usually get up later improve their mood. ____6____This research adds to other similar studies which suggested that early risers tend to be healthier. At the same time, the fact that waking up an hour earlier improves the mood is associated with enjoying more hours of sunshine to a large extent.The study started from the assumption that if people go to bed an hour earlier, they'll also wake up an hour earlier. Based on this idea, the researchers came to the conclusion that if people who go to bed at 3 am, decide to go to bed at 2 am, their risk of suffering from depression is reduced by 23 percent. ____7________8____ Generally they assumed that it's because daylight generates a large amount of hormonal (荷尔蒙的) impacts that affect mood. However, experts do not rule out (排除) the idea that non-early risers have a certain mismatch with social rhythms. This is because we live in a society that focuses more on daytime activities. ____9____ In fact, being a night owl effectively means giving up a "normal life".However, the study indicates that all of this is assumption. ____10____ In this way, they can continue to work out the reasons why waking up an hour earlier can have such an impact on depression.A．The experts, though, didn't fully understand the reasons.B．It can also reduce the risk of developing major depression.C．However, waking up one hour earlier causes some problems.D．For this reason, experts stress the need for new and extensive research.E．Sometimes they become energetic the next day when they have enough sleep.F．If they went to bed at 1 am, the risk reduction could be as much as 40 percent. G．Therefore, not keeping with that social rhythm can cause certain feelings of inadequacy.How Culture Affects CuisineIt probably happened to you: You ate this incredible dessert in Turkey, you tried this fantastic dish in Spain, and you brought the recipe back home — just to feel the disappointment that what you cooked at home didn’t pass the taste test.It’s likely that groceries have different qualities in different countries. In the case of the United States and Europe this has very little to do with soil or climate. ____11____ Consumers in the U.S. have other preferences in groceries than most Europeans. It comes down to culture.Europeans often value quality more than quantity. Of course you will find out-of-season produce on the shelves of grocery stores as well. ___12___ Europeans especially are willing to give up short-term gain for a much greater long-term result.Take, for example, Italians produce dry-cured ham (干腌火腿) only during the waning moon that follows the full moon and it is practiced to this day. According to old farmer’s lore, the meat could go bad, if it isn’t cured by the moon. ____13____However, Americans believe in progress and the benefits of technology. It becomes clear why following tradition doesn’t have to be a strong value. Food for U.S. consumers is produced and shipped across the country. ____14____ The industrialization of food production results in new breeds of produce. The population growth calls for higher quantities. Farmers and growers are paid for the amount, not for the flavor.____15____ European cultures are rather regional, and this means food traditions have remained undamaged in fairly small areas. Within these regions and communities people often shop locally from regional producers. And they shop more frequently than Americans. Europeans often go to the local market daily whereas millions of shoppers in the U.S. purchase one or two weeks’ supply of groceries in one single visit to the big box store.All these consumer choices, based on cultural behaviors, have had a lasting impact on how our food is grown and what it tastes like.A．Geography plays another role here.B．Refrigeration makes it possible to store foods longer.C．However, demand for better quality is greater in their countries.D．This great interest in culinary (烹饪的) tradition is a cultural feature.E．The main reason why produce tastes different here and there is choice.F．Food provides the world with one of the only ways to universally communicate.G．Often our culinary preferences have an effect on the vacation destinations we choose.How to Find Real FriendsA lot of people would define a real friend as a treasure. ____16____ Given below are the steps to be done for us to find real friends that will stand by us through whatever comes along.Be interested in others. Having interest in others is the first step towards making friends. We should start by having a real love for people and then taking an active interest in others.___17___ Others are often impressed that you cared enough to remember their name. And with this, they may begin to share some experience or problems with you and the friendship starts to build.__18__ Being a good listener is important in building friendships. If we are interested in what others are saying, they are typically drawn to us.Be loyal. It is said that the main quality of a friend is his loyalty: a friend that will be with you through thick and thi n. A real friend shouldn’t damage your reputation by joining in wicked gossip. ____19____Reveal your deepest feelings. A friend should not be embarrassed to lay bare to those whom he trusted. This, of course, doesn’t mean that you should pour out all your emotions to everyone that you meet. However, we should be honest. And as you get to know and trust someone, you can gradually reveal more of your deepest feelings.Do not expect perfection. We aren’t perfect. And even when a friendship is off to a good s tart, we shouldn’t expect it to be perfect. We must strive to make it an almost perfect kind of friendship. ____20____Friends are important to our lives. Sometimes, they are our source of strength and inspiration. However, we must remember that for us to finally meet real friends, we must be a real friend too. A．Pay attention to how you listen.B．And to attain it, we need time and emotion.C．Instead, he or she will loyally stand up for you.D．Actually, a sincere interest in others attracts friendship.E．Just like in searching for treasure, an effort should be done.F．One way to show interest is to know their name and remember it.G．A secret for a successful friendship includes empathy and fellow feelings for others.Sometimes in our life we face this problem: loved ones as well as strangers annoying us. At home, we’ve had to put up with children screaming during online meetings, and family members on the computer all the time. ___21___Kindness seems like a distant memory. The ability to live peacefully with annoying housemates or neighbors seems more difficult than ever. ___22___ If we take kindness as a skill, making it a daily practice, it will come easier over time.___23___ Loving Kindness Meditation (默想) (LKM), which dates back to the time of its roots to early Buddhism, helps us find sympathy for one another even during trying times. The meditation asks us to send thoughts of loving kindness to loved ones, then to acquaintances (people you don’t know very well) and finally to challenging people. Over time, our unkind thoughts are replaced with more open, accepting ones. Anger is replaced by love, or at least kindness.Donald Altman, a psychotherapist from Portland, Oregon, says LKM helps us recognize we are all weak and have been hurt. ___24___So how? To begin with, Altman suggests finding a quiet place to sit. He says to then imagine a favorite family member or friend sending you the words, “May you be well, happy and at peace.” After a few minutes, direct the words at yourself, “May I be well, happy and at peace.” ___25___ Replace the “I” with the name of a teacher or coach, then a family member or friend, then an acquaintance, and finally an unfriendly person in your life. End the meditation by spreading the blessing to all living beings.Indeed, we should find our own way toward LKM — but only if we are prepared to access its benefits and extend them to anyone who may need them.A．The good news is that it isn’t lost.B．Luckily, we can look to ancient disciplines for guidance.C．At work, we’ve had to face the added pressure these demanding jobs create.D．Then, extend the blessing to other people, in order of decreasing fondness.E．For that reason, we could all benefit from love’s warm and comforting blessing.F．You can combine the words with breathing, repeating a phrase of love for yourself. G．Outside, we’ve encountered drivers speeding on busy roads and passengers talking loudly on the subway.Take back controlThere are times in life when nothing seems to go to plan. The trip you were looking forward to is called off, your house sale falls through, and you haven't exercised in three weeks. All of these things have happened to me and, on occasion, at the same time.____26____ Either that, or you end up giving up and feeling like your life is always going to be full of problems.So, how do you keep your calm in testing times, but also hold it together for long enough to pull yourself out? Contrary to what you may think, I'm a believer in giving in to how you're feeling, at least for a moment.____27____But how do you turn things around? The first thing I do is write everything down. I draw a line down the middle of a page. On the left, I write down all the things that are stressing me out. On the right, I write down everything that needs to be done to fix these problems. Then, I look at the list and I cross out all the points over which I have no control.____28____ Next, I write down the possible actions against each point on the list. Finally, I force myself into taking action by picking up the phone and asking someone for help;____29____ After all, a problem shared is a problem halved.In my experience, the easiest way to keep calm is to regain control of your situation. When we feel out of control, we fall into a downward cycle, and taking back control stops this.____30____ Finally, I remind myself of an age-old truth: this too shall pass.A．I focus on the things that I can do something about.B．We can think and worry about many things at the same time.C．And the moment we start doing, we move away from thinking.D．I always find that this simple act makes me fix things quicker.E．The truth is, it's hard not to lose control of yourself in these moments.F．Better to fall into it, accept the situation for what it is, then get back on your feet and go again. G．No matter how bad things are, keeping your calm will always help you find a better outcome.What Is Good Citizenship?Good citizenship is generally defined as how a citizen performs a role to become a useful member of society. This involves duties and responsibilities that may be expressed through laws and regulations. ____31____Citizenship, in its general sense, is being part of a community. ____32____ The factors toward improving lives and relationship of a community include doing volunteer work, initiating community programs, and participating in economic affairs.A good citizen is an important part of a progressive state. As covered by the social contract theory, a government is established to manage interaction among citizens, define an individual’s rights, enforce these rights, and make sure just compensation (补偿) is obtained when these rights are not obeyed. ____33____ The purpose of this social contract is to avoid chaos in a community, which is possible without good leadership. From this leadership arises good citizenship, allowing every citizen to expect others to respect for his or her legally demandable rights.____34____ The most basic characteristic is the moral duty to recognize the rights of others. Another important characteristic is the ability to listen to the views of others. These views may bring about solutions to problems of the community. A good citizen is also willing to adapt to new situations. ____35____ Based on these factors, good citizenship is said to be related to both the intellectual and social skills of a citizen.A．There are many characteristics of good citizenship.B．Being a good citizen is important in improving the community.C．Apart from these characteristics, a good citizen knows and obeys the laws of the land.D．In turn, the citizens hand over to the government the powers that may limit some freedom. E．This may also involve your behaviors expressed through the recognition of right and wrong. F．As citizens, we care about others and being good members of our communities and our country. G．Good citizenship lies in the recognition that members of a community work together to improve their lives and their relationship with one another.Self-esteem is the ruling view you have of yourself. This includes your beliefs about your inner qualities and how you think others see you. ___36___ Someone can develop low self-esteem even when they are highly functional and greatly skilled. Understanding this mysterious emotional currency might be the key to unlocking your own self-worth.People with healthy self-esteem don't need to boast about themselves to others. People with low self-esteem may tell you how much everyone loves them, what a great job they do at work, and how amazing they are at pretty everything under the sun even though they really wonder if it's true. People may see them as obnoxious or “full of themselves”. ___37___ They are not shy about sharing ideas, including constructive criticisms of others. They also take care of themselves without second-guessing or apologizing. They are the people who we say seem “sure of themselves”.If you're starting to think you may have low self-esteem, you can work on the way you talk to yourself. When you turn off negative self-talk, you can open the floor to positive reinforcements and access the courage to show different sides of yourself. It isn't going to feel good at first, though. Keep going until it becomes less and less and maybe even a few awkward laughs in the mirror may help. ___38___However, in serious cases of low or even non-existent self-esteem, you may want to call in a professional or a specialist. Good mental health is important, and professionals doing psychotherapy do not pass judgement or give corrections. ___39___ It is the best way to get at the roots of your real self-esteem problems.___40___ It will take some work but your entire life — from your relationships to your body image to your work habits — will be touched with the kind of power that only comes from someone believing in themselves. This is the hardest part, and the greatest leap. With some changes and support, you can improve your self-esteem and see how everything else changes as a result.A．Self-esteem is not always rooted in reality, though.B．You have the power to shape a new self-perception.C．This encourages you to speak openly without worry.D．The real test of character is whether they can learn from their mistakes.E．Self-esteem refers to a person's overall sense of his or her value or worth.F．People with a healthy level of self-esteem present themselves with a casual confidence. G．With some practice and persistence, you will win this internal struggle to see your self-worth.Most of us think we have very little time, but the truth is we actually have a lot — on average, five hours 49 minutes each day, which means we typically have somewhere between 36 and 40 hours available to be spent every week however we want. So why don’t we feel time — rich?_____41_____One is that we earn more, so time feels more expensive. Then there’s the way we’ve come to see busyness as a status symbol: important people are busy, so we want to be busy, too. Add to that the flood of incoming emails and texts, along with the endless ocean of possibilities, and it’s easy to see where time goes.A second factor is the comparison we make between what we can do and what others are doing, making us anxious. ____42____ This fools us into thinking we’re being more productive with our work time, so we try to do it with our leisure time, too. When we’re playing with our kids, we check Facebook. When we’re hanging out with one group of friends, we post pictures to show another._____43_____We’re also addicted to our devices. In 2007, the amount of leisure time we spent on devices like smart-phones could be measured in minutes. Now, we spend on average 3.5 hours a day online. _____44_____You might be wondering why you need help deciding how to spend your free time — after all you know the sort of things you enjoy, so what could be so difficult? Psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi has a surprising opinion on it. “The popular assumption is that no skills are involved in enjoying free time, anybody can do it. Yet the evidence suggests the opposite; free time is more difficult to enjoy than work.” Worryingly, scientists have found that people are often no happier after a holiday than if they’d never taken one. ____45____ The question still remains unsettled.A．So we try to push back the tide and keep up by multi-tasking.B．No wonder people say they’re too busy to see friends, exercise or sleep.C．Would it surprise you to hear that we have more leisure time today than ever?D．How can we learn to spend time in a way that’s more likely to lead to happiness and success? E．It’s something that economist have been puzzling over and they’ve identified several reasons. F．Then you will have fewer empty experiences and far ore that are worthy of your precious time. G．This is something sociologists call “polluted time”.Life has a way of shaping us. Life can make you doubt or question your purpose.____46____.I have seen this in my own life.Poetry prepared me for my purpose. I did not see this initially, so I tried taking a different direction.____47____. I finally left behind my failures and fully launched into my destiny.In my journey towards purpose, poetry became my safety net. Poetry was my outlet from bullying by peers, which gave me low self-esteem.____48____. For every important moment in my life, I wrote poetry. During tough times, I wrote poetry. I connect with poetry on a deep level.However, writing poetry lacks financial stability.____49____. In America, I was an assistant teacher for kindergarten. When living in China, my job was an English teacher. The work I did was similar. I inspired children, giving them my love, my time and my heart. Still, poetry brought me joy.____50____.Where you are is preparing you for your purpose. Your purpose is waiting for you!A．I pursued teaching insteadB．I started writing poems at age 5C．My original plan never worked outD．The only person standing in your way is youE．It showed me how to make sense of the worldF．Poetry is my voice to be seen, heard and knownG．However, when you live out your purpose, you are unstoppable参考答案：1．G2．F3．D4．E5．B【导语】这是一篇说明文。

北京市海淀区清华大学附属中学高一七选五专题英语测试(附答案)[001]

北京市海淀区清华大学附属中学高一七选五专题英语测试(附答案)Have you ever wondered why people from different parts of the world eat different types of food or why certain foods and cooking traditions are so important to one’s culture? ____1____ On an individual level, we grow up eating the food of our culture, and we learn to be closely connected with it. Sometimes foods help us remember things in the past - memories that have special meanings to us. ____2____ When I was sick as a child, my mother used to cook soup for me. The smell and taste of the soup became something very familiar to me. Now, whenever I feel tired or stressed, I remember the soup my mum used to make for me.____3____ Traditional cooking is passed down from one generation to the next by maintaining precious family recipes. Immigrants (移民) cook traditional food as a way of preserving their culture in their new homes and as a means of coping with homesickness.Each country or community’s unique cooking reflects its history, lifestyle, values and beliefs.____4____ This is reflected in Chinese cooking, where almost every flavour is used in a balanced way to create delicious dishes. Also, Chinese people believe that food not only needs to be nutritious but also needs to look attractive and colorful.As the world becomes more globalized, it is easier to access cooking from different cultures. We should accept our culture’s food, but we should also become more informed about other cultures by trying dishes from around the world. ____5____A．In China, harmony (和谐) is important.B．Food is a gate into culture, and it should be treated as such.C．On a large scale, food is an expression of cultural identity.D．I encountered a few fun, food-related cultural differences abroad.E．There is more of a connection between food and culture than you may think.F．The old age wisdom can be seen in architecture and customs as well as in their food.

But siblings (兄弟姐妹) can actually improve your physical and mental health. ____6____.Having brothers and sisters makes you kinder. ____7____. This is probably because you have a same-generation relative to make you care about others.____8____. Brothers and sisters, whether younger or older, help prevent you from feeling terrible, unloved, lonely, anxious and fearful. That can only be an advantage when you reach adulthood (成年时期).Having brothers and sisters can help you have a healthier lifestyle. As a survey shows, 43% of people believe their family and friends have the biggest effect on their health. ____9____. Having good friends can bring many of the same benefits. Not all of you have brothers and sisters, ____10____. Don’t worry. Re search also shows that having close friends can boost your health and happiness. Make friends by signing up for groups or classes and finding people who enjoy the same things as you.A．Here are some benefits of having siblingsB．Siblings can be your healthy-eating partnersC．That makes you much more likely to help othersD．Having brothers and sisters helps remove bad feelingsE．Having siblings increases the chance of a happy marriageF．or you might not be in a good relationship with your siblingsG．and having brothers and sisters might well be worth the troubleIf you’re a gamer who’s constantly glued to your phone, it could be time to ask for medical help. On June 18, 2018, the World Health Organization（WHO）officially listed “gaming disorder” as a mental health condition. ___11___“Video gaming is like a non-financial kind of gambling （赌博）from a psychological point of view,” Mark Griffiths, a professor from Nottingham Trent University in the UK, told the Associated Press（AP）. “Gamblers use money as a way of keeping score, while gamers use points.”___12___“People need to understand this doesn’t mean every child who spendshours in their room playing games is an addict, otherwise doctors are going to be flooded with requests for help,” Joan Harvey, a spokesw oman for the British Psychological Society, told AP.___13___ For example, a 21-year-old Chinese woman surnamed Wu in Guangdong province went blind in one eye after playing the mobile game King of Glory for a whole day. “On days when I have no work, I usua lly get up at 6 am, eat breakfast and play until 4 pm,” she told the South China Morning Post.“Then I’ll eat something, have a nap（小睡）and play until 1 am.”Wu isn’t alone. According to a study published by China Youth Daily, about one in five young Chinese people play online video games for at least four to five hours per day. ___14___ In April, the Ministry of Education issued a notice asking Chinese schools and parents to prevent students from becoming addicted to the Internet and games.Other countries have also taken action.___15___ Meanwhile, in Japan, some mobile phones have a special mode for children that lets their parents control what games they can download and how long they can play.A．This means it’s now on the same list as other mental il lnesses.B．Thankfully, measures have been taken to deal with the problem.C．We often see people around us playing games on their mobile phones.D．In South Korea, children are forbidden to play video games after midnight.E．WHO’s main work is to improve the mental health of individuals and society.F．But if you lose control over your gaming habits, you’ll face serious problems. G．However, it doesn’t matter if you play your favorite game now and then.Ask any kid what they dislike the most in their study ro utine, and they will answer, “homework.” ____16____ Fortunately, applying the following tips, you will help your kid deal with homework faster and more effectively.Setting the right workspaceSetting the perfect working environment is of outmost importan ce. That’s why you should make sure to separate places for playing and studying to prevent your kid from switching between them.____17____ Besides, ensure there are no things that can distract(分心) them.Once you set a spot, it is time to prepare to do the assignment. Remember: you want your kid to be focused. Therefore, the first thing to do is make everything necessary to complete the taskwithin arm’s reach. Make sure your kid can access any note or textbook without leaving the workspace.____18____Unlike adults, kids are very active. And while the former can remain focused for around half an hour, children’s attention span(时长) is much shorter than that. That’s why it is essential to set up a work schedule to maintain concentration.With that being s aid, however long your kid’s working time is, remember to include several breaks.____19____Understanding teachers’ expectationsUsually, educators assign tricky and challenging tasks on purpose, because they want students to use and develop their skills.Whether you guide your kid through the writing process, it is important to understand the task before working on it.____20____Homework can be a real pain in the neck. Without the right strategy, you are doomed to spend lots of time completing home tasks. Hopefully, the mentioned tips will help your kid deal with assignments quickly and successfully.A．Drawing out an outlineB．Creating work scheduleC．Pick a quiet spot where your child can learn peacefully.D．Make sure your child knows what is being required from them.E．Dealing with home assignments is a widespread problem among kids.F．This will help restore the child’s attention and maintain their productivity.G．This will force your kid to follow schedule and learn to do their homework for better.As a senior high student, here are five things you should know before you start college.1. Every college has different rules on what you can bring.____21____ Rules vary from school to school, and you may want to hold off on buying that mini-fridge/ microwave until you make sure you can have them in your dorm.2. You might not like your roommate.For your new term, you’ll have a picked roommate. ____22____ This can be uncomfortable, but remember that with classes, you probably won’t be in your room anyway.3. There are tons of things to do.The last thing anyone should be worried about is being bored on campus. ____23____ They’re not hard to find, either. There are often posters all around campus for things to do and clubs to join. Some clubs even have their own social media sites, which could help you learn about the clubs.4. ____24____In order to make sure you can graduate on time without any difficulty, it’s a good idea to decide on your courses early. But keep in mind that your plan won’t be written in st one. Many students change their majors at least once during their time in college, and this is a good thing.5. You can get good grades and have fun.A common fear when starting college is that there will be time for either studying or having fun,but not both. The truth is that with good time management it is possible to get good grades in all your classes and still have time to be in clubs and go have fun. ____25____A．Figure out when you will graduate.B．Plan out your academic career early.C．Food is an important part of the campus experience.D．Almost every college has a host of student clubs and organizations.E．If you manage your schedule well, you may even get enough sleep, too.F．You’d better check whether you can bring your items before you move in.G．While it’s possible that you will be the best friends, you might not get along.How to Get Mental PeaceAre you struggling with mental health these days, like feeling anxious or confused about your life? It may be difficult to find mental peace at first, ___26___. Here are the tips.Find meanings in your life. ___27___. For example, you can connect with others through voluntary work or finding other ways to help and serve others, such as taking care of you families. If you feel fulfilled with your contribution, your mind will be more peaceful.Start a journal. You can write your thoughts and feelings about your past and current life. So it is an effective way to find out what might be keeping you from peace. In this way, it helps you find out if you still suffer because of events from your past. ___28___.___29___. Everyone complains about things, but someone does this as a normal pattern. That may be draining your energy or negatively influencing your mood. You may need to be careful about the amount of time you spend with them. Try to spend more time with people who lift you up.Being Mindfulness. Your mental peace can be disrupted by worrying about the future or being stuck in the past, ___30___. Mindfulness can help produce a sense of calm, manage your emotions, and adapt to stressful situations at this moment.A．Pay attention to the influence of othersB．Support your passive and anxious friendsC．but you can practice techniques to help yourselfD．That will analyse what make your life successfulE．so y ou’d better bring your awareness to the presentF．Ask yourself if the things you do bring joy and value to youG．It also helps you think about what keeps you happy at presentSometimes we make meditation(冥想) more complicated than it needs to be. Instead of over thinking it, follow the steps below to set yourself up for success:● Find Your MotivationAs with any new habit, it's important to understand your motivation for getting started. I meditate because I feel like it makes me a calmer person during the day. ___31___ Whatever your motivation is, get clear on it and come back to it often.● Choose Your ToolsWhen you have the right tools, meditation can feel a lot less daunting. I find guided meditations a lot easier to follow than trying to meditate in silence, but everyone has their own preferences.___32___ , I recommend Calm, Head space, and Insight Timer.● Create a Meditation SpaceAlthough you can practice meditation anywhere, I find it helpful to have a designated meditation space that feels familiar to you. ___33___ You might prefer to lay out a yoga mat in your living room or sit on some pillows in a quiet corner. Find what works for you!● ___34___If you want to start making meditation part of your routine, it's important to carve out time for it. I've found that the only way I can get myself to do it every day is to open up my Calm ape right after I wake up. When meditation is the first thing I do, I start my day feeling less anxious.● Track Your ProgressBoth Calm and Head space have built-in trackers that show you how many days you've meditated in a row, and I find this motivating because I never want to break my steak. ___35___ you could simply keep track of it in your daily to-do list.A．Set a Fixed TimeB．Set a Time LimitC．I choose to meditate upright in bedD．If you're not using either of these appsE．If you're looking for a good meditation appF．Perhaps you want to meditate to reduce anxietyG．If you try meditating for the first time with 20 minutesSome healthy people have flat abs (腹肌) and thin bodies. ____36____ In fact, the official definition of health—at least, the one used by the World Health Organization (WHO)—says nothing about the way you look. WHO says health is “a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.” ____37____You eat when you’re hungry and stop when you’re full. ____38____ “It sounds really silly, but it’s amazing how many of us don’t do that,” Dr. Cindy Geyer, member of the True Health Initi ative and medical director at Canyon Ranch in Lenox, Massachusetts, told INSIDER. “We forget to eat so we’re starving and then we eat a ton, or we’re eating mindlessly in front of the TV, or we’re eating in an emotional context because it’s how we re self-soothing. A healthy relationship with food is trusting your internal cues, not external ones, to decide what and how much to eat,” she said. “I encourage clients to eat until they’re satisfied, but not stuffed.”____39____ A diverse diet ensures that you’r e more likely to get all the vitamins and nutrients you need, she explained. This is even more true if the diet is rich in whole foods (天然食品), which tend to be more nutrient-dense than processed stuff.You’re eating enough. Remember, calories aren’t your e nemy or some evil force to be reduced at all costs. ____40____ And if you’re not eating enough of them, you could end up feeling moody, weak, achy, and more.A．How can you tell if you fit that definition?B．You’re eating a varied diet rich in whole foods.C．They give special attention to the way they live.D．This simple behavior is a typical feature of healthy eating.E．But that doesn’t mean these qualities are necessary for good health.F．A healthy relationship with food contributes greatly to good health.G．They’re an energy source that helps you live your life and do what you love.The coronavirus (冠状病毒) has brought many changes to our live, among them is the ability to spend more time together as a family! ____41____ This will help keep their stress levels down. Though the situation may be tense, you can make it a fin family-centered time!____42____ Let your kids have a creative time and help set up a stage in the house. Have everyone show off a talent, such as singing or dancing, or even hold a comedy show. Magic shows are also welcome. This creates a fun time when everyone can learn more about one another. Make art. Have everyone find their inner artist. Whether you are sitting inside or under the shade of a tree, everyone can take part.

Mastering certain relaxation skills helps you to concentrate on something other than the stimulus (刺激物) that is causing anger.When you feel angry, try to give yourself positive self judgments and mental suggestions of calming yourself.____47____ Some people “order” themselves to get over the feelings of anger, while others persuade their minds to think about some other pleasanter thoughts. This calming skill works wonders.Concentrate on the different body parts and the tension that has gathered there—the neck, the arms, the worry lines on your forehead. ____48____ Attacking the tension of the various body parts will automatically lead to a slow release of tension and eventually, anger from the mind.Re-position your body and correct your body language.

And try to move your attention away to something completely unrelated to the situation at hand.

北京高考英语阅读理解七选五专项训练

七选五Daily life has its satisfactions, such as the perfect reply to a friend’s text message, the first after-work drink, or the unexpected gift. ____1____ That moment when the mess of 21st-century existence disappears into the non-judgmental embrace of a soft bed.Somehow we have pushed this pleasure to the back of the queue. A third of American adults report sleeping less than the recommended seven hours. Many of us feel under-rested. For some, the problem is modern life: emails, to-do lists and screens. ____2____Now there’s increasing evidence that a lack of sleep is associated with higher risk of depression, cancer, and other problems. Research published in the European Heart Journal reports that heart disease was lower among people who went to sleep between 10 p.m. and 11 p.m., no matter how long they slept. ____3____But after the appearance and rise of sleeping aids, is sleep the next part of human experience that will become increasingly tracked, counted and compared? We sigh at LinkedIn users who claim to wake up at Sam and learn Mandarin while meditating. But when people overcommit to sleeping well, it can be counter-productive.____4____ In his book Overcoming Insomnia and Sleep Problems, Oxford professor Colin Espie writes about ‘orthosomnia’, where people are so focused with sleeping well that they become too anxious to do so. The marketing of sleeping aids adds to this.Espie says we each have a sleep pattern that we figure out through trial and error. Genetically, some humans are larks and some are owls; the larks may just have better cardiovascular health. For an owl to try to fight their natural schedule, and sleep earlier, wouldn’t necessarily help.Basic sleeping advice is notably consistent, including keeping a regular pattern, cutting back on alcohol and caffeine and taking away all bedroom distractions. Instead of just loading sleep advice on individuals, we could integrate aspects of it into public health. ____5____ Employers could be sensitive to the different needs of their workers.A good night’s sleep is a profound pleasure. As far as possible, it should also remain a simple one.A．Such research is all well and good.B．The risk is that we ignore the problem.C．Then there are those who can’t sleep when they try.D．For other people, it’s the demands of work or family.E．But does any of these really compare to the joy of going to sleep?F．Schools could start later to coincide with children’s body rhythms.G．Stressing ourselves out about a lack of sleep can worsen the problem.Stare at a blank wall in any room, and you are unlikely to learn much more than the paint color. But a new technology can inconspicuously scan the same surface for shadows andreﬂections. ____6____ But they can be got by one tool and analyzed to determine details including how many people are in the room—and what they are doing.This tool could gather information from a partial view of a space. It can spy on activity from around a corner. ____7____As people move around a room, their bodies block a portion of any available light to create delicate and indistinct “soft shadows” on walls. ____8____ But these faint (微弱的) signals are usually drowned out by the main source of environment light. “If we neglect whatever we are observing, you would just be left with camera noise—and signal,” says Prafull Sharma, a graduate student at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.Sharma and other researchers did the experiment by ﬁlming a wall in a room as its occupants moved around and averaging the frames over time. ____9____ Then the team fed the videos into a machine-learning model to teach it which soft shadow patterns indicated which behavior. The resulting system can automatically analyze footage of a blank wall in any room in real time, determining the number of people and their actions.____10____ It can register only group sizes and activities for which it has been trained, and it requires a high-resolution camera; a standard digital camera creates too much background noise, and smartphone camera results are even worse.A．The technology is thought advanced.B．These can’t be caught by the human eye.C．They recorded various activities of the people in the room.D．Brightly colored clothing can even cast a light reﬂected glow.E．It also can monitor someone who avoids a camera’s line of sight.F．The system is considered a unique and wonderful discovery by camera specialists.G．Although this system can function in any room, it performs poorly in dim lighting.The 24 solar terms were created thousands of years ago in China to guide agricultural production. They also reflect China’s rich history through the seasonal festivals, special foods, cultural ceremonies, family gatherings and even healthy living tips that correspond with each solar term.____11____Rain Water signals the increase in rainfall and rise in temperature. With its arrival, lively spring-like scenery starts blossoming: the river water defreezes. wild geese move from south to north and trees and grass tum green again.____12____In northern China, the spring drought is common and the precipitation of this season accounts for only 10 to 15 percent of annual average rainfall. At this time of year, farmers begin to plough their fields. It’s the right time to prepare for spring sowing when the day gets warmer.____13____During Rain Water period, extra care is needed to deal with a returning cold spell and humidity, which is the amount of water in the air.____14____It is strongly advised not to take off the thick coats too early and to keep warm, especially the elderly and children.The wet and humid weather during Rain Water period is considered harmful for people’s spleen and stomach according to Chinese medical practice.____15____People in Beijing often eat porridge(粥) cooked with a kind of Chinese herb medicine to resist cold and wet weather. Honey, dates and Chinese yam are also very good nourishment(营养) to put in the porridgeA．With Rain Water coming, insects become more active.B．A bowl of nutritious porridge is the best choice to nourish the body.C．Therefore, Rain Water is considered as a key period to water the fields.D．According to an old Chinese saying, the rainfall in spring is as precious as oil.E．The temperature in most of the basin areas increases quickly during Rain WaterF．One of the 24 solar terms, which is very important in spring, is called Rain Water.G．The fast increase in air humidity due to rainfall can result in lower temperature and wet weather.Alternative medicine has become much more popular in the West in recent years. ___16___ And they are turning to treatments such as homeopathy, yoga, and acupuncture（针灸）to complement or sometimes even replace the western medicine.Acupuncture is based on the idea that energy flows through the human body along 12 lines or meridians（经络）, which end up at the organs in the body. ___17___ To remove the blockage, an acupuncturist inserts（插入）very fine needles into the body at points along the meridians. This stimulates the flow of energy, and restores the patient's health.Acupuncture only really became well-known in the West in the 1970s as people began to travel more frequently between the two areas of the world. ___18___ However in the last few years it has become more established as an alternative to western medical treatments, since clinical tests have shown that acupuncture is effective for some conditions. ___19___ Many sportspeople have experimented with acupuncture when fighting injury. Martina Hingis, the famous tennis player, had a wrist injury cured through treatment, and NBA legend Kobe Bryant also used acupuncture on his leg. It is also used to treat depression, stress and anxiety.___20___ In the past some people have experienced allergic reactions, broken needles and even punctured lungs while being treated, although this is very uncommon.A．The treatment is often used to relieve headaches, dental pain, etc.B．Illness is the result of a blockage of the energy flow to these organs.C．The treatment is thought to increase the body's resistance to infection.D．In the Far East, acupuncture is used to treat a wide range of complaints.E．However, before you go, check if the acupuncturist is qualified and registered.F．At first, doctors in the West often doubted about the medical value of acupuncture.G．It seems that people are becoming increasingly worried about the side effects of drugs.Overthinking the Small Stuff?How many decisions have you made over the last day, week... month?Drive or Uber? Suit or no suit? Italian or Thai? iPhone or Huawei?While today’s freedom of choice has obvious benefits, the constant pressure to make perfect choices can often rob our freedom, heighten our anxiety and lower our productivity.___21___ For starters, trying to perfect every single decision is a 'mission impossible,' making it pretty in vain.____22____ And finally, research shows that trying to nail every decision reduces our ability to perform at our best and make great decisions about the things that really matter.The irony is that people who try to make the perfect decision every time tend to suffer more anxiety about their decisions, feel less satisfied with them afterward and, unsurprisingly, are less productive than people who just go with ‘good enough’.“The habit of aiming for the best possible option every time actually robs people of satisfaction and effectiveness,” wrote Barry Schwartz on the Paradox of Choice. ___23___ However, they're generally less happy about what they eventually decide upon.Better than trying to maximize every choice is to make a ‘good enough’ choice that meets a basic level of satisfaction. So you didn’t get the best possible hotel at the best possible price? Move on. So the shade of yellow you chose to paint the sunroom was a little dark? Again, move on! ___24______25___ The reason is that they aren’t wasting precious time and energy on decisions that don’t really matter. So as you think about all the decisions you have to make in the day or month ahead, focus your precious time, talents and attention on the things that truly matter. A．There are a few reasons for this.B．But some researchers do not agree with it.C．Secondly, it can be mentally and emotionally exhausting.D．Much more important issues are waiting for your attention.E．Besides that, every decision you make may disappoint you.F．Such ‘maximizers,' as Schwartz calls them, spend more time and energy reaching a decision. G．Schwartz found that 'satisficers' who live by the ‘good enough’ rule actually get more done.参考答案：1．E2．D3．B4．G5．F【解析】【导语】这是一篇说明文。

They agreed to teach me how to find my funny bones, too.___8___ . As you would hope, they are very amusing. They begin by sending me a questionnaire about what I find funny, what I don't, and how I attempt to make others laugh. The results willapparently reveal my humor type.In our first call, Aaker, a social psychologist (心理学家), explains that many of us leave humor behind when we arrive at adulthood: A four-year-old laughs up to 300 times a day. ___9___ .

That’s why you may be told to “sleep on”—a choice you’re uncertain about.What are dreams?Dreams usually occur during a stage of sleep known as rapid eye movement (REM) sleep.

If you’re writing about humans living on a planet with zero gravity, then you need to know the effects of zero gravity on the human body. ____17____ Only in this way can you gain the readers’ trust.Then the rules in your creation can be different from our daily life, so you have to figure out the exact rules of your imaginary worlds. ____18____ For example, if humans in your creation are able to breathe underwater in Chapter 1, your characters can’t drown(溺水)in a swimming pool or river in Chapter 3.____19____ You should decide the following issues: the history of the world, the geography, what possibilities it offers, how everything works in this new reality, as well as how all of these factors affect the way your characters think, feel, and react.

Or are you just looking for a place to relax after a long day?_____11_____, color is the key to making a room feel the way you want it to feel.Over the years, there have been a number of different techniques to help designers approach this important point. _____12_____, they can get a little complex. But good news is that there’re really only three kinds of decisions you need to make about color in your home: the small ones, the medium ones, and the large ones._____13_____. They’re the little spots of color like throw pillows, mirrors and baskets that most of us use to add visual interest to our rooms. Less tiring than painting your walls and less expensive than buying a colorful sofa, small color choices bring with them the significant benefit of being easily changeable.Medium color choices are generally furniture pieces such as sofas, dinner tables or bookshelves. _____14_____. They require a bigger commitment than smaller ones, and they have a more powerful effect on the feeling of a space.The large color decisions in your rooms concern the walls, ceilings, and floors. Whether you’re looking at wallpaper or paint, the time, effort and relative expense put into it are significant. _____15_____.A．While all of them are usefulB．Whatever you’re looking forC．If you’re experimenting with a colorD．Small color choices are the ones we’re most familiar withE．It’s not really a good idea to use too many small color piecesF．So it pays to be sure, because you want to get it right the first timeG．Color choices in this range are a step up from the small ones in two major ways 三、Why Do We Get Angry?Anger seems simple when we are feeling it, but the causes of anger are various. Knowing these causes can make us examine our behavior, and correct bad habits. The main reasons we get angry are triggering（触发）events, personality traits（特征）, and our assessment of situations. ___16___Triggering events for anger are so many that to describe them all would take hundreds of pages. However, here are some examples: being cut off in traffic, a deadline approaching, experiencing physical pain, and much more. _____17_____ The reason why someone is triggered by something and others are not is often due to one’s personal history and psychological traits.Each person, no matter who they are, has psychological imbalances. People who have personality traits that connect with competitiveness and low upset tolerance aremuch more likely to get angry. ____18____ Also, sometimes pre-anger does not have to do with a lasting condition, but rather a temporary state before a triggering event has occurred.___19___Sometimes even routine occurrences become sources of pre-anger, or anger itself. Sometimes ignorance and negative (消极的) outlooks on situations can create anger.___20___However, anger can easily turn violent, and it is best to know the reasons for anger to appear in order to prevent its presence. With these main reasons in mind, we can evaluate our level of anger throughout the day and prevent cases of outbursts by comprehending the reasons for our feelings.A．Our attitude and viewpoint on situations can create anger within us as well. B．But some types of situations can help us to get rid of the occurrence of anger. C．Anger is rarely looked upon as a beneficial character trait, and is usually advised to reduce it.D．Anger is a particularly strong feeling and maybe people think that they have reasons to feel angry.E．Having these personality traits implies the pre-anger state, where anger is in the background of your mind.F．Understanding these reasons will control our own anger if we are willing to evaluate ourselves with a critical eye.G．Not everyone acts the same in response to events, and that is why what triggers one person may or may not trigger another.四、Every animal sleeps, but the reason for this has remained foggy. When lab rats are not allowed to sleep, they die within a month. ___21___One idea is that sleep helps us strengthen new memories. ___22___ We know that, while awake, fresh memories are recorded by reinforcing (加强) connections between brain cells, but the memory processes that take place while we sleep have been unclear.Support is growing for a theory that sleep evolved so that connections betweenneurons(神经元) in the brain can be weakened overnight, making room for fresh memories to form the next day.___23___Now we have the most direct evidence yet that he is right. ___24___The synapses in the mice taken at the end of a period of sleep were 18 per cent smaller than those taken before sleep, showing that the connections between neurons weaken while sleeping.If Tononi’s theory is right, it would explain why, when we miss a night’s, we find it harder the next day to concentrate and learn new information — our brains may have smaller room for new experiences.Their research also suggests how we may build lasting memories over time even though the synapses become thinner. The team discovered that some synapses seem to be protected and stayed the same size. ___25___ “You keep what matters,” Tononi says.A．We should also try to sleep well the night before.B．It’s as if the brain is preserving its most important memories.C．Similarly, when people go for a few days without sleeping, they get sick. D．The processes take place to stop our brains becoming loaded with memories. E．That’s why students do better in tests if they get a chance to sleep after learning. F．“Sleep is the price we pay for learning,” says Giulio Tononi, who developed the idea.G．Tononi’s team measured the size of these connections, or synapses, in the brains of 12 mice.五、If anyone had told me three years ago that I would be spending most of my weekends camping, I would have laughed heartily. Campers, in my eyes, were people who enjoyed insect bites, ill-cooked meals, and uncomfortable sleeping bags. They had nothing in common with me. ___26___The friends who introduced me to camping thought that it meant to be a pioneer. ____27____ We slept in a tent, cooked over an open fire, and walked a long distanceto take the shower and use the bathroom. This brief visit with Mother Nature cost me two days off from work, recovering from a bad case of sunburn and the doctor’s bill for my son’s food poisoning.I was, nevertheless, talked into going on another fun-filled holiday in the wilderness. ____28____ Instead, we had a pop-up camper with comfortable beds and an air conditioner. My nature-loving friends had remembered to bring all the necessities of life.___29___ We have done a lot of it since. Recently, we bought a twenty-eight-foot travel trailer complete with a bathroom and a built-in TV set. There is a separate bedroom, a modern kitchen with a refrigerator. The trailer even has matching carpet and curtains.___30___ It must be true that sooner or later, everyone finds his or her way back to nature. I recommend that you find your way in style.A．This time there was no tent.B．Things are going to be improved.C．The trip they took me on was a rough one.D．I was to learn a lot about camping since then, however.E．I must say that I have certainly come to enjoy camping.F．After the trip, my family became quite interested in camping.G．There was no shade as the trees were no more than 3 feet tall.六、Evaluating Sources of health InformationMaking good choices about your own health requires reasonable evaluation. A key first step in bettering your evaluation ability is to look carefully at your sources of healthy information. Reasonable evaluation includes knowing where and how to fins relevant information, how to separate fact from opinions, how to recognize poor reasoning, and how to analyze information and the reliability of sources. ___31___ Go to the original source. Media reports often simplify the results of medical research. Find out for yourself what a study really reported, and determine whether it was based on good science. Think about the type of study. ______32______Watch for misleading language. Some studies will find that a behaviour ＂contributes to＂or is ＂associated with＂an outcome; this does not mean that a certain course must lead to a certain result. ___33___ Carefully read or listen to information in order to fully understand it.Use your common sense. If a report seems too good to be true, probably it is. Be especially careful of information contained in advertisements. ____34____ Evaluate ＂scientific＂statements carefully, and be aware of quackery (江湖骗术).___35___ Friends and family members can be a great source of ideas and inspiration, but each of us needs to find a healthy lifestyle that works for us.Developing the ability to evaluate reasonably and independently about the health problems will serve you well throughout your life.A．Make choices that are right for you.B．The goal of an ad is to sell you something.C．Be sure to work through the critical questions.D．And examine the findings of the original research.E．Distinguish between research reports and public health advice.F．Be aware that information may also be incorrectly explained by an author’s pointof view.G．The following suggestions can help you sort through the health information you receive from common sources.七、Getting your children to study can be a little like getting them to eat their vegetables.____36____ Make a study time and have it at the same time every day. This will help your kids to learn to schedule their day and will give them a sense of control over how they spend their time.Allow them to study in blocks of time, such as for half an hour with a five-minute break in the middle. ____37____ Ideal(理想的) study times are after dinner or right after school before dinner.Never allow your children to study in front of the television, as that will encourage passive activity. ____38____You’ll also need to help your kids find the right place to study. After you’ve set up a good study time for little learners, set up a good place where they can get those creative juices flowing.____39____ Make sure there is a table or a desk and a comfortable chair.____40____ This includes helping them out with their homework sometimes and being there for them with the answers to any questions. The input you give your children during study periods will help form a bond and help make studying enjoyable.A．Pick a place where your children can study properly.B．Hold them to the schedule they create for themselves.C．Finally, spend time with your kids when they’re studying.D．Keep the atmosphere light and offer lots of encouragement, too.E．Instead, use TV as a treat or a reward when the homework is completed.F．Try to stop this bad habit by offering some sort of reward.G．One of the best ways to form good study habits for your kids is to design a schedule that they keep to.八、This Way to Dreamland Daydreaming means people think about something pleasant, especially when this makes them forget what they should be doing．Daydreamers have a bad reputation for being unaware of what’s happening around them．They can seem forgetful and clumsy．___41___They annoy us because they seem to be ignoring us and missing the important things．But daydreamers are also responsible for some of the greatest ideas and achievements in human history．___42___Can you imagine what kind of world we would have without such ideas and inventions?So how can you come up with brilliant daydreams and avoid falling over tree roots or otherwise looking like a fool?First, understand that some opportunities(机会) for daydreaming are better than others．Feeling safe and relaxed will help you to slip into daydreams．___43___And if you want to improve your chances of having a creative idea while you’re daydreaming, try to do it while you are involved in another task—preferably something simple, like taking a shower or walking, or even makingmeaningless drawings．It’s also important to know how to avoid daydreams for those times when you really need to concerntrate．“Mindfulness”, being focused, is a tool that some people use to avoid falling asleep．___44___Finally, you never know what wonderful idea might strike while your mind has moved slowlyaway．___45___Always remember that your best ideas might come when your head is actually in the clouds．A．Having interesting things to think about also helps．B．They stare off into space and wander by themselves．C．Without wandering minds, we wouldn’t have relativity , Coke or Post-it notes．D．At one time, daydreaming was thought to be a cause of some mental illnesses．E．It involves slow, steady breathing for self-control that helps people stay calm and attentive．F．Daydreams are often very simple and direct, quite unlike sleep dreams, which may be hard to understand．G．Therefore, it’s a good idea to keep a notebook or voice recorder nearby when you’re in the daydream zone．参考答案：1．F2．B3．D4．G5．E【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是音乐对身体的好处。

【历年高考真题】Test 1 (2023•北京卷)根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

It’s a joyful and stressful time of year in the United States for students and their families as they make decisions abo u t where to attend college. Families often turn to rankings systems to help make a decision. ____35____When I talk to families as a scholar of higher education, they’re often surprised that teachin gexcellence is not counted in rankings. ____36____Emerging research suggests that courses in lower-ranked universities, on average, scored higher on teaching than courses in higher-ranked universities. ____37____ The absence of teaching excellence from the rankings is surprising given the link between high-quality teaching and student success. Quality teaching is one of the most important predictors of a wide range of college outcomes.Rankings, however, are only one reason why a low value is placed on teaching in higher education. Administrators often don’t view teaching excellence as a way to increase enrolment (注册) or funding. ____38____ Research shows that the more time instructors spend on teaching, the lower their salary. What is the result Many instructors continue to teach using traditional lectures, which lead to lower success rates.____39____ Nevertheless, not much will change until schools with high-quality teaching are rewarded with more resources, higher rankings and increased enrolments. In the long term, universities, organisations that rank schools, and others should work to make teaching a valued, core part of the mission.What should students and their families do? They should give strong consideration to universities where high-quality teaching is valued, even though the schools may be ranked lower.A. Higher education has achieved its true potential.B. Therefore, it’s not highly valued in hiring or promotion.C. Quality teaching has been an important reputation-building factor.D. However, the rankings ignore a critical factor: the quality of teaching.E. Efforts to improve teaching at the university level have recently emerged.F. They’re even more surprised at how teaching is undervalued by universities.G. In fact, universities often shift emphasis from teaching to other ranking factors.Test 2 (2022•北京卷)Health and fitness help a person live a good and healthy life. Often due to various pressures, we tend to ignore our health. 35 It is the fitness level of our body that helps us fight these diseases.36 We need to be fit to have a healthy body. Similarly, if we are healthy we shall naturally be attracted towards maintaining the fitness of our body. Health is the state of our body at a given time. We may not have any disease but still have a weak body, which is ready to be targeted by viruses. 37 This does not definitely mean that we are not healthy. It means the fitness level is not in accordance with our age and the climatic conditions we live in.It is important for everyone to devote some time to health and fitness. 38 For instance, we must exercise daily regardless of our age and working style. There are different levels of exercises for different age groups and we must do them according to our own health and age.Additionally, it is important to relax our body. We should have at least six to eight hours of sleep every day. It helps in improving our immune (免疫) system and protects us against diseases.39 This, in turn, gives us new goals of health and fitness.A. Fitness levels decide the quality of life.B. Health and fitness are interrelated to each other.C. It also helps in keeping us calm and relaxes our mind.D. For instance, we may have a tendency to catch a cold easily.E. If we keep our body fit, we can enjoy life in a better manner.F. There are some activities which everyone should do in our life.G. This makes our body suffer and we will catch other diseases.Test 3 (2021•北京卷)Music has long been considered to be an enjoyable pastime for many people. ____35____ The mental health benefits from music can't be argued. Music could also be helping you with many other health problems behind the scenes.____36____However, for the same reason, music can be very beneficial if one is in pain. By distracting （分心）the mind from the pain, music, people say, can lower stress and anxiety levels. This, of course, can lead to less pain.Many people enjoy relaxing music in the evening prior to going to bed. ____37____While the validity of the idea is still being assessed, the lowered stress can even be tied back to blood pressure. Similarly, according to researchers, listening to just 30 minutes of soft music every day may help with healthy blood sugar levels, through the lowering of stress and anxiety.When it comes to heart health, there is speculation （推测）that it's not the style of music, but rather the tempo that makes it so good for your heart health. In one European study, participants listened to music as the researchers monitored their heart rates and blood pressure. ____38____ On the other hand, when the music slowed, the participants' stress and anxiety levels became lower and the effects on heart rates appeared to follow suit.____39____But there is a whole range of other health issues that turning up the radio could be beneficial for, which is what makes music so valuable.A. This feeling can also result in many other health problems.B. Some experts say that music can be harmful if it is too loud.C. This idea is a little off-the-wall but still has scientific backing.D. They say it can play a big role in calming the brain enough to sleep.E. The implications of music on overall well-being are really impressive.F. It is also highly popular due to the individualized effects on stress and anxiety.G. Interestingly, the more cheerful the music was, the faster their heart rates were.Test 4 (2020•北京卷)Many people think that positive thinking is mostly about keeping one's head in the sand and ignoring daily problems, trying to look optimistic. In reality it has more to do with the way an individual talks to himself. Self-talk is a constant stream of thoughts of a person, who is often unaware and uncertain of some events, phenomena, people, or even the person himself. 46 Meanwhile, positive thinking can help to stop negative self-talks and start to form a positive view on an issue. People who regularly practise positive thinking tend to solve problems more effectively. They are less exposed to stress caused by external factors. They tend to believe in themselves and in what they do.47 People who think positively demonstrate increased life spans (寿命), lower rates of depression and anxiety, better physical and psychological health, reduced risks of death from heart problems. Positive thinking also contributes to one's ability to deal with problems and hardships.48 For example, researchers have found that in the case of a crisis accompanied by strong emotions, such as a natural disaster, positive thinking can provide a sort of buffer(缓冲作用)against depression and anxiety. Resilient(适应性强的)people who think positively tend to treat every problem as a challenge, a chance for improvement of any kind, or as an opportunity for personal growth. Pessimists, on the contrary, tend to perceive problems as a source of additional stress. 49In conclusion, positive thinking is a powerful and effective tool for dealing with hard times and improving the quality of one's life. It doesn't have anything to do with ignorant optimism when an individual refuses to notice a problem.50Thinking in a positive, self-encouraging way brings about many benefits to one's physical and mental health.A. It doesn't cause any severe emotional discomfort, either.B. Negative self-talk damages self-confidence and decreases self-respect.C. It helps one to remain clear-headed and confident in difficult situations.D. Positive thinking has several beneficial effects on the body and the mind.E. As thinking changes, an individual's behaviour and habits change as well.F. They often offer a real alternative to the common and regular way of thinking.G. They often feel discouraged long before trying to solve the problem, even if small.Test 5 (2019•北京卷)Much of the work in today’s world is accomplished（完成）in teams. Most people believe the best way to build a great team is to gather a group of the most talented individuals. 46 Companies spend millions hiring top business people. Is their money well spent?47 They focused on football, basketball and baseball. The results are mixed. For football and basketball, adding talented players to a team proves a good method, but only up to the point where 70% of the players are top talent; a bove that level, the team’s performance begins to decline. Interestingly, this trend isn’t evident in baseball, where additional individual talent keeps improving the team’s performance.To explain this phenomenon, the researchers explored the degree to which a good performance by a team requires its members to coordinate（协调）their actions. 48 In baseball, the performance of individual players is less dependent on teammates. They conclude that when task interdependence is high, team performance will suffer when there is too much talent, while individual talent will have positive effects on team performance when task interdependence is lower. If a basketball star is, for example, trying to gain a high personal point total, he may take a shot himself when it would be better to pass the ball to a teammate, affecting the team’s performance. Young children learning to play team sports are often told, ＂There is no I in TEAM.＂49Another possibility is that when there is a lot of talent on a team, some players may make less effort. Just as in a game of tug-of-war（拔河比赛）, whenever a person is added, everyone else pulls the rope with less force.50 . An A-team may require a balance—not just A players, but a few generous B players as well.A. It’s not a simple matter to determine the nature of talent.B. Sports team owners spend millions of dollars attracting top talentC. The group interaction and its effect drew the researchers’ attention.D. Stars apparently do not follow this basic principle of sportsmanship.E. Several recent studies examined the role of talent in the sports world.F. Building up a dream team is more complex than simply hiring the best talent.G. This task interdependence distinguishes baseball from football and basketball.Test 6 (2018•北京卷)Why Do We Get Angry?Anger seems simple when we are feeling it, but the causes of anger are various. Knowing these causes can make us examine our behavior, and correct bad habits. The main reasons we get angry are triggering（触发）events, personality traits（特征）, and our assessment of situations. ___51___Triggering events for anger are so many that to describe them all would take hundreds of pages. However, here are some examples: being cut off in traffic, a deadline approaching, experiencing physical pain, and much more. _____52_____ The reason why someone is triggered by something and others are not is often due to one’s personal history and psychological traits.Each person, no matter who they are, has psychological imbalances. People who have personality traits that connect with competitiveness and low upset tolerance are much more likely to get angry. ____53____ Also, sometimes pre-anger does not have to do with a lasting condition, but rather a temporary state before a triggering event has occurred.___54___Sometimes even routine occurrences become sources of pre-anger, or anger itself. Sometimes ignorance and negative (消极的) outlooks on situations can create anger.___55___However, anger can easily turn violent, and it is best to know the reasons for anger to appear in order to prevent its presence. With these main reasons in mind, we can evaluate our level of anger throughout the day and prevent cases of outbursts by comprehending the reasons for our feelings.A. Our attitude and viewpoint on situations can create anger within us as well.B. But some types of situations can help us to get rid of the occurrence of anger.C. Anger is rarely looked upon as a beneficial character trait, and is usually advised to reduce it.D. Anger is a particularly strong feeling and maybe people think that they have reasons to feel angry.E. Having these personality traits implies the pre-anger state, where anger is in the background of your mind.F. Understanding these reasons will control our own anger if we are willing to evaluate ourselves with a critical eye.G. Not everyone acts the same in response to events, and that is why what triggers one person may or may not trigger another.Test 7 (2017•北京卷)Every animal sleeps, but the reason for this has remained foggy. When lab rats are not allowed to sleep, they die within a month. 71One idea is that sleep helps us strengthen new memories. 72 We know that, while awake, fresh memories are recorded by reinforcing(加强) connections between brain cells, but the memory processes that take place while we sleep have been unclear.Support is growing for a theory that sleep evolved so that connections between neurons(神经元) in the brain can be weakened overnight, making room for fresh memories to form the next day.73Now we have the most direct evidence yet that he is right. 74 The synapses in the mice taken at the end of a period of sleep were 18 per cent smaller than those taken before sleep, showing that the connections between neurons weaken while sleeping.If Tononi’s theory is right, it would explain why, when we miss a night’s, we find it harder the next day to concentrate and learn new information — our brains may have smaller room for new experiences.Their research also suggests how we may build lasting memories over time even though the synapses become thinner. The team discovered that some synapses seem to be protected and stayed the same size. 75 “You keep what matters,” Tononi says.A. We should also try to sleep well the night before.B. It’s as if the brain is preserving its most important memories.C. Similarly, when people go for a few days without sleeping, they get sick.D. The processes take place to stop our brains becoming loaded with memories.E. That’s why students do better in tests if they get a chance to sleep after learning.F. “Sleep is the price we pay for learning,” says Giulio Tononi, who developed the id ea.G. Tononi’s team measured the size of these connections, or synapses, in the brains of 12 mice.Test 8 (2016•北京卷)The Science of Risk-SeekingSometimes we decide that a little unnecessary danger is worth it because when we weigh the risk and the reward, the risk seems worth taking. 46 Some of us enjoy activities that would surprise and scare the rest of us. Why? Experts say it may have to do with how our brains work?The reason why any of us take any risks al all might have to do with early humans. Risk-takers were better at hunting, fighting, or exploring. 47 As the quality of risk-taking was passed from one generation to the next, humans ended up with a sense of adventure and a tolerance for risk.So why aren’t we all jumping out of airplanes then? Well, even 200,000 years ago, too much risk-taking could get one killed. A few daring survived, though, along with a few stay-in-the-cave types. As a result, humans developed a range of character types that still exists today. So maybe you love car racing, or maybe you hate it. 48No matter where you are on the risk-seeking range, scientists say that your willingness to take risks increases during your teenage years. 49 To help you do that, your brain increases your hunger for new experiences. New experiences often mean taking some risks, so your brain raises your tolerance for risk as well.50 For the risk-seekers a part of the brain related to pleasure becomes active, while for the rest of us, a part of the brain related to fear becomes active.As experts continue to study the science of risk-see king, we’ll continue to hit the mountains, the waves or the shallow end of the pool.A．It all depends on your character.B．Those are the risks you should jump to take.C．Being better at those things meant a greater chance of survival.D．Thus, these well-equipped people survived because they were the fittest.E．This is when you start to move away from your family and into the bigger world.F．However, we are not all using the same reference standard to weigh risks and rewards.G．New brain research suggests our brains work differently when we face a nervous situation.Test 9 (2015•北京卷)This Way to Dreamland Daydreaming means people think about something pleasant, especially when this makes them forget what they should be doing. Daydreamers have a bad reputa tion for being unaware of what’s happening around them. They can seem forgetful and clumsy. 71 They annoy us because they seem to be ignoring us and missing the important things.But daydreamers are also responsible for some of the greatest ideas and achievements in human history. 72 Can you imagine what kind of world we would have without such ideas and inventions? So how can you come up with brilliant daydreams and avoid falling over tree roots or otherwise looking like a fool? First, understand that some opportunities(机会) for daydreaming are better than others.Feeling safe and relaxed will help you to slip into daydreams. 73 And if you want to improve your chances of having a creative idea while you’re daydreaming, try to do it while yo u are involved in another task—preferably something simple, like taking a shower or walking, or even making meaningless drawings.It’s also important to know how to avoid daydreams for those times when you really need to concentrate. “Mindfulness”, being focused, is a tool that some people use to avoid falling asleep.74 Finally, you never know what wonderful idea might strike while your mind has moved slowly away. 75 Always remember that your best ideas might come when your head is actually in the clouds.A．Having interesting things to think about also helps.B．They stare off into space and wander by themselves.C．Without wandering minds, we wouldn’t have relativity , Coke or Post-it notes.D．At one time, daydreaming was thought to be a cause of some mental illnesses.E．It involves slow, steady breathing for self-control that helps people stay calm and attentive.F．Daydreams are often very simple and direct, quite unlike sleep dreams, which may be hard to understand.G．Therefore, it’s a good idea to keep a notebook or voice recorder nearby when you’re in the daydream zone.【名校好题强化】【01】（2023上·北京朝阳·高三统考期中）Many of us set goals, but sometimes we fail to achieve them. There are many causes why we don’t manage to realize our goals. 1 There is a way, though, to help address this problem: set reminders. People employ a psychological strategy called cognitive (认知的) offloading, where we use a physical action to reduce demands on our brain. Specifically, we may outsource our intentions from being stored in our brains to reminders outside our head. 2 Understanding the benefits of cognitive offloading can improve our ability to remember andfollow through with our intentions. The biggest benefit is simply that it improves memory performance. It increases the probability that we will work towards the goals we need to reach.3 “The more we offload unimportant information, such as items on a shopping list, the more we can use our brai n for those more significant cognitive tasks, such as creativity,” said Sam Gilbert, professor at the University College London.4 Still, there are potential negative parts for it. We are more likely to forget what we offloaded if we no longer access our storage, such as when our smartphone dies. We also tend to offload the important things we most want to remember. In a surprise test where their reminders were wiped clean, the participants were more likely to forget the important items and recall the unimportant ones, that is, the more important the intention we want to remember, the more likely we are to offload it—and to forget it.We’d better tend to create reminders when we think we need them, but not necessarily when we do need them. 5 “I f our understanding of our memory ability is wrong, this suggests that we will either overuse or underuse reminders,” Gilbert said. “We can learn by noticing the times that we have forgotten to do something and could have used reminders to help.”A．Cognitive offloading has noticeable benefits.B．One common reason is that we simply forget them.C．Besides, it can free up our limited cognitive resources.D．A good example can be documents on our smartphone calendars.E．The process of cognitive offloading helps us identify false information.F．Our beliefs about how good our memory is directly influence whether we set them.G．Other experts say it’s too soon to understand how cognitive offloading affects our brains.【02】（2023上·北京丰台·高三统考期中）All the feelsYou can make your picture book memorable by concentrating on emotional connection. This works across every principle of writing, regardless of age range or genre (文体), because it is universally recognized. 6The reason why emotional connection works is that emotion is a fundamental human experience. 7 It also brings us together and reminds us that although we have differences, people are fundamentally the same. By bringing emotion into your story, you tap into that consciousness. The story feels more real to us. It is consistent with us, and as a result, we have a richer reading experience.8 This is useful for your picture book writing, such as choosing vocabulary to use or adopting a suitable linguistic style. Once you know the genre of a book, you can think about the kind of emotional storytelling a reader would expect from this genre.For example, if it’s a funny picture book, your reader is clearly expecting to laugh. Make sure they laugh. If it’s an adventure story, your reader will be expecting to feel excitement, anticipation and probably a little mild fear. If it’s a heartwarming story, your reader expects to feel warm, comforted and overflowing with love. 9Another reason for including emotion in your picture book is to really get your reader inside your character’s head. Firstly, it helps build on the young reader’s emotional development and understanding of self and others. 10 As well as caring about character, an emotion-filled picture book therefore keeps us on our toes.If you want your story to stand out amongst other stories, give your reader something to remember — a strong emotional connection.A．Secondly, it creates interest in the character.B．It helps us make sense of the world around us.C．An emotional ending in a picture book works well.D．When we feel something, we will have sharp minds.E．This is obviously not a complete list, but it is a starting point.F．Here is why it works and how you can use it in your picture book writing.G．Picture books have many different genres and your job is to know which genre your story sits in.【03】（2023上·北京海淀·高三统考期中）Which is healthier: a bag of crisps or a vegetable salad? That is easy. Now which is healthier: a pizza made from scratch or one made from the same basic ingredients, with the same number of calories, pulled out of a box in the freezer? Many people would instinctively(本能地) say the former, perhaps showing a vague concern with processed food. Such food can often be delicious. And there is much to cheer about calories being cheap and abundant. 11What’s the distinction between “ultra-processed food(upf)” and “processed food”? Almost everything people consume is processed in some form. Rice is harvested; animals are butchered. Upf is usually described as “formulations of ingredients, made by a series of industrial processes, many requiring advanced equipment and technology”. 12 The one in the freezer, with its extra, modified ingredients, is upf.Upf harms people in ways both known and unknown. It seems to affect the trillions of bacteria that contribute to health in a range of ways. Calorie-rich but usually nutrient-poor, upf contributes to obesity(肥胖症).Upf displaces healthier alternatives, particularly for poor people. 13 Extra weight was once a sign of wealth, but among British and American women today, obesity rates are higher at lower-income levels.14 Additives that may be safe in small quantities may be harmful in combination with other chemicals or when consumed regularly. If we are what we eat, considering the impact of upf is essential.15 People who live in so-called “food swamps”, where upf is everywhere but real food is harder to reach, could spend large amounts of time and money seeking out fresh food, but that is not how most people live. There is nothing wrong with the odd fast-food trip, but anyone who can afford to eat less upf probably should.A．Environment matters, too.B．It’s cheap to produce and buy.C．But that cheapness and abundance come at a cost.D．Even foods labeled “natural” or “organic” can be processed.E．A pizza made from scratch contains minimally processed food.F．Some people have a particular weakness for salty potato crisps.G．The reasons why upf can be harmful are not always clear, even to scientists.【04】（2023·全国·高三专题练习）It’s a joyful and stressful time of year in the United States for students and their families as they make decisions about where to attend college. Families often turn to rankings systems to help make a decision. 16When I talk to families as a sch olar of higher education, they’re often surprised that teaching excellence is not counted in rankings. 17Emerging research suggests that courses in lower-ranked universities, on average, scored higher on teaching than courses in higher-ranked universities. 18 The absence of teaching excellence from the rankings is surprising given the link between high-quality teaching and student success. Quality teaching is one of the most important predictors of a wide range of college outcomes.Rankings, however, are only one reason why a low value is placed on teaching in higher education. Administrators often don’t view teaching excellence as a way to increase enrolment (注册) or funding. 19 Research shows that the more time instructors spend on teaching, the lower their salary. What is the result? Many instructors continue to teach using traditional lectures, which lead to lower success rates.20 Nevertheless, not much will change until schools with high-quality teaching are rewarded with more resources, higher rankings and increased enrolments. In the long term, universities, organisations that rank schools, and others should work to make teaching a valued, core part of the mission.What should students and their families do? They should give strong consideration to universities where high-quality teaching is valued, even though the schools may be ranked lower.A．Higher education has achieved its true potential.B．Therefore, it’s not highly valued in hiring or promotion.C．Quality teaching has been an important reputation-building factor.D．However, the rankings ignore a critical factor: the quality of teaching.E．Efforts to improve teaching at the university level have recently emerged.F．They’re even more surprised at how teaching is unde rvalued by universities.G．In fact, universities often shift emphasis from teaching to other ranking factors.【05】（2023·北京·首都师范大学附属中学校考模拟预测）Children love getting dirty. 21 But getting muddy could have a powerful effect on their wellbeing, too.“Don’t get dirty!” was once a constant family warning, as parents despairingly watched their children spoil their best clothes. Whether they were running through farmers’ fields, climbing trees or catching tadpoles, it was inevitable that children’s whites w ould turn brown before the day was over.Today, many parents may secretly wish their children had the chance to pick up a bit of dirt. With the rise of urbanism, and the temptation of video games and social media, contact with nature is much rarer than in the past. 22What is gained in laundry bills may be lost in the child’s wellbeing. According to recent research, the dirt outside is teaming with friendly microorganisms. 23Many of the psychological benefits of outdoor play are already well established. Natural scenes provide the perfect level of stimulation, which is thought to help recharge the brain when it is tired and easily distractible. Supporting this theory, one study from 2009 found that children。

life?Professional?Or are you just looking for a place to relax after a long day?①,color is the key to making a room feel the way you want it to feel.Over the years,there have been a number of different techniques to help designers approach this important point.(2),they can get a little complex.But good news is that there're really only three kinds of decisionsyou need to make about color in your home:the small ones,the medium ones,and the large ones.(3).They're the little spots of color like throwpillows,mirrors and baskets that most of us use to add visual interest to our rooms.Less tiring than painting your walls and less expensive than buying a colorful sofa,small color choices bring with them the significant benefit of being easily changeable.Medium color choices are generally furniture pieces such as sofas,dinner tables or bookshelves.④.They require a bigger commitment than smaller ones,and they have a more powerful effect on the feeling of a space.The large color decisions in your rooms concern the walls,ceilings,and floors.Whether you're looking at wallpaper or paint,the time,effort and relative expense put into it are significant.⑤.A.While all of them are usefulB.Whatever you're looking forC.If you're experimenting with a colorD.Small color choices are the ones we're most familiar withE.It's not really a good idea to use too many small color piecesF.So

few tips to help you win over everyone in the neighborhood quickly.6.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.①Money is a topic I'11savefor 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,s nothing ready to eat.So think ahead of the coming week.When will you have time to cook?Do you have the right materials already?②__________2.Make your time worth it.When you do find time to cook a meal,make the most of it and save yourself time later on.Are you making one loaf of bread?③It takes around the same amount of time to make more of something.So save yourself the effort for a future meal.3.④This may surprise you,but one of the best tools for making cooking worth your time is experimentation.It gives you the chance to hit upon new ideas and recipes that can work well with your appetite and schedule.The more you learn and the more you try,the more ability you have to take control of your food and your schedule.Hopefully that gives you a good start.⑤And don't let a busy schedule discourage you from making some great changes in the way you eat and live!A.Try new things.B.Ability is easily improved.C.Make three or four instead.D.Understand your food better.E.Cooking is a burden for many people.F.Let cooking and living simply be a joy rather than a burden.G.A little time planning ahead can save a lot of work later on.7.Training for a marathon requires careful preparation and steady, gradual increases in the length of the runs.①,buy the bestfitting,best-built running shoes you can find.No one can say which brand will work best for you or feel best on your feet,so you have to rely on your experience and on the feel of each pair as you shop.When you have found shoes that seem right,walk in them for a few days to double-check thefit.②.As always,you should stretch(伸展)at least ten minutes before each run to prevent injuries.During the first week,do not think about distance,but run five minutes longer each day.③,it is wise to take a day off to rest.But during the next week,set a goal of at least a mile and a half per run.(4). After two weeks,start timing yourself.⑤.Depending on the kind of race you plan to enter,you can set up a timetable for the remaining weeks before the race.A.After six daysB.For a good marathon runnerC.Before you begin your trainingD.With each day,increase the distance by a half mileE.If they still feel good,you can begin running in themF.Time spent for preparation raises the quality of trainingG.Now you are ready to figure out a goal of improving distance and time8.Eyesight plays a very important role in our daily life.Every waking moment,the eyes are working to see the world around us.Over forty percent of Americans worry about losing eyesight,but it's easy to include steps into ourdaily life to ensure healthy eyes.Here are five suggestions for a lifetime of healthy eyesight:•Schedule yearly exams.①.Experts advise parents to bring babies6to12months of age to the doctor for a careful check.The good newsis that millions of children now can have yearly eye exams and following treatment,including eyeglasses.•Protect against UV rays（紫夕卜线）.Long-term stay in the sun creates risk to your eyes.No matter what the season is,it，s extremely important to wear sunglasses.②.•Give your eyes a break.Two-thirds of Americans spend up to seven hours a day using computers or other digital products.（3）.Experts recommend that people practice the20/20/20rule:every20minutes,take a20-second break and look at something20feet away.•④.As part of a healthy diet,eat more fruits and vegetables each day.Vitamins（维生素）C and E help protect eyesight and promote eye health.•Practice safe wear and care of contact lenses（隐形眼镜）.Many Americans use contact lenses to improve their eyesight.While some follow the medical guidance for wearing contact lenses,many are breaking the rules and putting their eyesight at risk.⑤.Otherwise,you may have problems such as red eyes,pain in the eyes,or a more serious condition.A.Eat your greens.B.Eye care should begin early in life.C.They can properly protect your eyes.D.Stay in good shape by taking more vitamins.E.Parents usually don't care about their own eyesight.F.Always follow the doctor,s advice for appropriate wear.G.This frequent eye activity increases the risk for eye tiredness.9.If you are already making the time to exercise,it is good indeed!With such busy lives,it can be hard to try and find the time to work out.①Working out in the morning provides additional benefits beyond being physically fit.•Your productivity is improved.Exercising makes you more awake and ready to handle whatever is ahead of you for the day.②•Your metabolism（新陈代谢）gets a head start.（3）If you work out in the mornings,then you will be getting the calorie（卡路里）burning benefits for the whole day,not in your sleep.■④Studies found that people who woke up early for exercise slept better than those who exercised in the evening.Exercise energizes you,so it is more difficult to relax and have a peaceful sleep when you are very excited..⑤If you work out bright and early in the morning,you will be more likely to stick to healthy food choices throughout the day.Who would want to ruin their good workout by eating junk food?You will want to continue to focus on positive choices.There are a lot of benefits to working out,especially in the mornings.Set your alarm clock an hour early and push yourself to work out!You will feel energized all day long.A.You will stick to your diet.B.Your quality of sleep improves.C.You prefer healthy food to fast food.D.

A garden that's just right for youHave you ever visited a garden that seemed just right for you, where the atmosphere of the garden appeared to total more than the sum （总和）of its parts? ①. But it doesn' t happen by accident. It starts with looking inside yourself and understanding who you are with respect to the natural world and how you approach the gardening process.②__________Some people may think that a garden is no more than plants, flowers,patterns and masses of color. Others are concerned about using gardening methods that require less water and fewer fertilizers （月巴料）.（3）. However, there are a number of other reasons that might explain why you want to garden. One of them comes from our earliest years.Recall （回忆）your childhood memoriesOur model of what a garden should be often goes back to childhood.Grandma' s rose garden and Dad' s vegetable garden might be good or bad, but that' s not what' s important. ④一how being in those gardens made us feel.

34．选B第四段是建议用邻居可以接受的方式帮助他们，同时尊重邻居的隐私。由本段中的“you are there to help in any way”可知，B项“一个好邻居也是一个在小的方面乐于助人的人”，符合本段内容。
35．选C只要我们考虑周到，尊重他人，照顾好属于自己的东西，为社区的整体面貌感到自豪，你很快就会成为一个大家都喜欢的好邻居。空格后的“respecting others, taking care of, taking pride in”都是替别人着想的表现，故C项符合语境。

If the plot, characters, or word usage is confusing for you, you likely won’t be able to remember what you read. It’s a bit like reading a foreign language. If you don’t understand what you’re reading, how would you remember it? But there are a few things you can do ... Use a dictionary; look up the difficult words.
●Read it; hear it; be it!
Read the lines. Then, speak them out loud. And, put some character into the words. When he was writing his novels, Charles Dickens would act out the parts of the characters. He’d make faces in the mirror, and change his voice for each character. __34__
G．Here are a few er everyone in the neighborhood quickly.
B
How to Remember What You Read

语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章从四个方面说明了如何做个好邻居，介绍了几个帮你迅速地融入新的社区的小技巧。
31．选G第一段讲如果你想成为邻居中一个可以接受和有价值的部分，最简单的方法就是确保你的行为举止像一个好邻居应该有的。下文介绍了几种具体做法，故选G项“这里有一些技巧，可以帮助你迅速赢得邻居的信赖”，承上启下。
Perhaps one of the most important things you can do as a good neighbor is to keep your property (房产) neat, clean, and in good repair.__32__ By choosing to keep the outside of the home in great shape, you will help to improve the look and feel of the area.
Second, take the overall appearance of the neighborhood seriously.When going for a walk, take along a small garbage bag.__33__ This small act will let your neighbors know that you care about the area.
32．选A本空是段落主题句。由“If the plot, characters，or word usage is confusing for you, you likely won’t be able to remember what you read.”可知，本段主要介绍了由于对所读的内容有困惑，从而导致记不住所读的东西，故A选项与此处匹配。
A．In general, keep an eye on their property while they are gone.
B．A good neighbor is also one who likes to help out in small ways.
C. Being a good neighbor is more or less about considerate behavior.

●Are you connected?
Does a character remind you of a friend? Does the setting make you want to visit the place? Does the book inspire you, and make you want to read more? With some books, you may feel a connection right away. __33__ How willing are you to make the connections happen?
33．选F根据空前的“With some books, you may feel a connection right away.”可知，读有些书时，你可以很快建立联系；空后一句提到“你有多大意愿让这些联系发生”，故F项“但是(阅读)其他书对你的要求更多一些”与前后句衔接紧密，故选F项。
34．选G本空位于段尾，是段落结尾句。由本段内容可知，大声读出来所阅读的材料并加以演绎也是一个技巧。本段又以狄更斯写作时演绎自己作品中的角色为例来说明我们也可以这样做，所以选G项。
__35__ By following the basic rules of respecting others, taking care of what belongs to you, and taking pride in the appearance of the neighborhood in general, you will quickly become a good neighbor that everyone appreciates.
__34__ If a neighbor is going to be out of town, offer to collect mail and newspapers.If a neighbor suffers an illness, offer to do the grocery shopping.Let them know that you are there to help in any way that is acceptable, while still respecting the privacy of your neighbor.

语篇解读：本文主要介绍了记住阅读过的内容的技巧。
31．选D根据空前的“the next step is making sure that you remember what you’ve read”和空后的“but the ideas, concepts and images (形象) may fly right out of your head”可知，阅读是重要的，但是你要确保记住所阅读的内容。你可能刚读过了文本，但并没有记住其中的思想、概念和形象。由此可知D项“记忆有时候是一件很困难的事情”能衔接上下文，所以选D项。
●How often do you read?
If you read frequently, you’ll likely have an easier time with remembering what you’re reading (and what you’ve read). __35__ As you make reading a regular part of your life, you’ll make more connections, stay more focused and understand the text better. You’ll learn to enjoy literature — as you remember what you read!
