Every month, we throw out our own weight in packaging alone. Packaging ( including boxes, bags etc.) comes to our homes with the things we have bought.Where does all that rubbish go? We bury most of it in a landfill (垃圾掩埋场),but the landfills in many cities in the U.S. are almost filled. Many of the old landfills have poisons that can make the water and soil around them dangerous to your health.What can you do to help ?Follow the three R’s : REUSE, REFUSE, and RECYCLE.Reuse: Y ou don’t need new bags every time you go to the store.

When Christopher Columbus landed on the then unnamed Costa Rica in 1502, he saw many Indians wearing gold earrings. So he thought the land must be rich in gold. He named the place Costa Rica, which means “rich coast” in Spanish.Though little gold was found, Costa Rica today is indeed rich with coffee and bananas. Coffee is the most important product in Costa Rica and most of it is exported (出口) to other countries like America and West Germany. Bananas are the country’s second most important export.Costa Ricans also grow many other crops such as fruits, corn and beans for their own use. Costa Ricans love colors and their houses are painted in bright colors.Education is very important to the Costa Ricans. Almost every village has a school and education is a must for children between seven and fourteen years of age. Boys and girls go to separate (单独的) schools. Classes begin in March and end in November. The other three months of the year are harvest time and the children have to help their parents to pick coffee beans.1. What’s the main idea of the first paragraph?A. How Columbus found Costa Rica.B. How Costa Rica got its name.C. What the Costa Ricans wore.D. What language the Costa Ricans spoke.2. The Costa Ricans may NOT paint their houses ______.A. pink and redB. grey and blackC. blue and greenD. yellow and orange3. In Costa Rica, boys and girls between seven and fourteen ______.A. must go to schoolB. study in the same schoolC. do not have to go to school at allD. can choose to stop schooling at any time4. From December to February, school children in Costa Rica ______.A. have lessons every dayB. have their examinationsC. help their parents pick coffee beansD. help their parents decorate their houses5. This passage is mainly about ______.A. Christopher ColumbusB. Costa RicaC. some products from Costa RicaD. the education of Costa RicaChristian Eijkman, a Dutch doctor, left the Netherlands for the island of Java. Many people on the island had a disease called beri-beri. He was going there to try and find a cure.At first, Eijkman thought some kind of germ (细菌) caused beri-beri. He raised some chickens. He didn’t eat them, but made experiments on them. The local people were quite surprised at that. One day he noticed that his chickens became sick when they were fed the food most Javanese ate —refined white rice (精炼米). When he fed them with unrefined rice, also known as brown rice, they recovered. Eijkman realized that he had made an important discovery — that some things in food could prevent disease. These things were named vitamins (维生素). The Javanese were not getting enough vitamins because they had actually removed the part that contains vitamins. Later, other diseases were also found to be caused by the lack of vitamins in a person’s food.Today many people know the importance of vitamins and they make sure they have enough vitamins from the food they eat. If they don’t, they can also take vitamin pills.6. The underlined word “cure” in Paragragh 1 probably means ______.A. a medical treatmentB. a kind of vitaminC. a kind of germD. a kind of ric7. Christian Eijkman went to the island of Java to ______.A. spend his holidayB. find ways to grow better cropsC. do some research about the islandD. help the Javanese with their illness8. Why did Christian Eijkman raise some chickens?A. To eat them.B. To carry out his experiments.C. To give the Javanese a surprise.D. To make money by selling them.9. If a person doesn’t get enough vitamins in his diet, he’d better ______.A. eat more riceB. eat more meatC. eat some chickenD. eat vitamin pills10. We can learn from the passage that ______.A. beri-beri was caused by chickensB. the Javanese didn’t like vita minsC. Christian Eijkman’s experiment was successfulD. the Javanese’s disease was caused by a kind of germAmerica is a mobile society. Friendships between Americans can be close and real, yet disappear soon if situations change. Neither side feels hurt by this. Both may exchange Christmas greetings for a year or two, perhaps a few letters for a while — then no more. If the same two people meet again by chance, even years later, they pick up the friendship. This can be quite difficult for us Chinese to understand, because friendships between us flower more slowly but then may become lifelong feelings, extending (延伸) sometimes deeply into both families.Americans are ready to receive us foreigners at their homes, share their holidays, and their home life. They will enjoy welcoming us and be pleased if we accept their hospitality (好客) easily. Another difficult point for us Chinese to understand Americans is that although they include us warmly in their personal everyday lives, they don’t show their politeness to us if it requires a great deal of time. This is usually the opposite of the practice in our country where we may be generous with our time. Sometimes, we, as hosts, will appear at airports even in the middle of the night to meet a friend. We may take days off to act as guides to our foreign friends. The Americans, however, express their welcome usually at homes, but truly can not manage the time to do a great deal with a visitor outside their daily routine. They will probably expect us to get ourselves from the airport to our own hotel by bus. And they expect that we will phone them from there. Once we arrive at their homes, the welcome will be full, warm and real. We will find ourselves treated hospitably.For the Americans, it is often considered more friendly to invite a friend to their homes than to go to restaurants, except for purely business matters. So accept their hospitality at home!11. The writer of this passage must be ______.A. an AmericanB. a ChineseC. a professorD. a student12. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Friendships between Americans usually extend deeply into their families.B. Friendships between Americans usually last for all their lives.C. Americans always show their warmth even if they are very busy.D. Americans will continue their friendships again even after a long break.13. From the last two paragraphs we can learn that when we arrive in America to visit an American friend, we will probably be ______.A. warmly welcomed at the airportB. offered a ride to his homeC. treated hospitably at his homeD. treated to dinner in a restaurant14. The underlined words “generous with our time” in Paragraph 3 probably mean ______.A. strict with timeB. serious with timeC. careful with timeD. willing to spend time15. A suitable title for this passage would probably be “______”.A. Friendships between ChineseB. Friendships between AmericansC. Americans’ hospitalityD. Americans’ and Chinese’s views of friendshipsThe other day I heard a few local musicians talking:“I hate all the terrible pianos in this town. I hate that rubbish they play on the radio. They can’t even understand a bit of music.”“I’m never playing in that club again. Too many drunks and nobody listens to us.”But, one younger musician said, “There are a few clubs that book my band a few nights a month, and I’m trying to find other places to play. I’m also looking to book a few summer festivals this year.”I’ve heard that you are the average of the five people whom you spend the most time with, or to put it another way, you are who your friends are.Attitu des are important. Whether they’ positive or negative, they’ rubbing off on you. If you’ around re re re people who complain about lack of work and about other musicians, or blame (责怪) others, and you play the role of victim (受害者), chances are you will start to as well. So it’s time to take a look at the people you call “friends”.This is an easy exercise: Make a list of the people who you hang out with, and simply stop spending time with the negative people on your list. Set a new standard (标准) for yourself and don’t become friends with people who fall below that standard.Keep successful people around you and your own chances for success will be much better. Ask them how they do it. Ask if they will help you get the work you’re looking for, or maybe give you some advice to help you on your career path.16. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?A. A friend in need is a friend indeedB. How to make friendship last for everC. You are who your friends areD. Friends are the most important in one’s success17. The underlined sentence “they’re rubbing off on you” in Parag raph 6 means ______.A. they’ll push you aheadB. they’ll influence youC. they’ll cover your shortcomingsD. they’ll help you achieve your goal18. The musicians’ words at the beginning are writ ten mainly to show ______.A. the musicians’ living conditions are quite poorB. people have poor taste in musicC. people have different attitudes towards the same thingD. young people have greater chances of succeeding19. By taking the exercise mentioned in Paragraph 7, you can ______.A. improve a lot in making more friendsB. come to the right way of making friendsC. develop a better relationship with your friendsD. arrange the time with your friends properly20. The passage is mainly written for ______.A. musiciansB. managersC. negative peopl eD. people wanting to succeedNorm Pethrick, a 36-year-old man in Australia’s northern city Darwin, was praised on Thursd ay for jumping onto a crocodile’s back to save his wife Wendy at Litchfield National Park, a popular tourist spot southwest of Darwin, a local newspaper reported.Ms Pethrick was standing on a river bank Wednesday afternoon when the saltwater crocodile lunged (扑), locking its jaws on both her legs as it tried to drag her underwater.Norm Pethrick, who with his wife had been collecting water, immediately went to help her. He jumped onto the back, poked (戳) the eyes of the crocodile and finally got his wife free.Ms Pethrick was later taken to Royal Darwin Hospital for a medical treatment. The doctors said she was suffering eight puncture wounds (伤口) in her right leg, a puncture wound in her left leg and a serious cut to one 3 of her fingers.“ This coul d have been a fatal and tragic situation,” said the general manager of Royal Darwin Hospital (RDH), Dr Len Notaras, according to a local report.He said Ms Pethrick was saved by her husband’s “quick and diligent actions”.Dr Notaras also said she would remain in hospital for three to four days and have an operation to clean the wounds, which are easy to get infected because of bacteria (细菌) on the teeth of the crocodile.21.

It can be as easy as walking into a neighborhood store to look at its announcement board. Local stores often have areas where people can put small signs telling what kind of service they need or can provide. Such services include caring for children or cleaning houses.Or, job searchers can look in the newspaper. Local newspapers have employment announcements placed by companies seeking workers.Another popular tool for finding jobs is the Internet. For example, people in four hundred and fifty cities around the world can use the Craigslist Web site to buy objects, meet people or find a job. Craigslist says that it receives two million new job listings each month.Another useful way to find a job is through a college or university. For example, students at the University of Texas in Austin can go to the Career Exploration Center to get help in finding a job. Of course, looking for a job requires knowing what kind of work you want to do. For example, there is a book called “What Color is Your Parachute (降落伞)?” by Richard Bolles. This book has been helping people choose a career (职业) since it was first published in nineteen seventy.Some experts also help people find jobs. Susan W. Miller owns a company called California Career Services in Los Angeles. She says her company helps people find jobs by first helping them understand their strengths, goals and interests.

One in every seven human beings can speak it. More than half of the world’s books and three quarters of international mail are in English. Of all languages, English has the largest vocabulary — perhaps as many as two million words.However, let’s face it: English is a crazy language. There is no egg in an eggplant, neither pine nor apple in a pineapple and no ham in a hamburger. Sweet-meats are candy, while sweetbreads, which aren’t sweet, are meat.We take English for granted. But when we explore its paradoxes (探讨它的矛盾), we find that quicksand can work slowly, boxing rings are square, public bathrooms have no baths in them.And why is it that a writer writes, but fingers don’t fing, grocers don’t groce, and hammers don’t ham? If the plural of tooth is teeth, shouldn’t the plural of booth be beeth? One goose, two g eese — so one moose, two meese?How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wise guy are opposites? How can overlook and oversee be opposites, while quite a lot and quite a few are alike? How can the weather be hot as hell one day and cold as hell the next?English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects (反映) the creativity of human beings. That’s why, when stars are out, they are visible (能看见的); but when the lights are out, they are invisible. And why, when I wind up my watch, I start it; but when I wind up this essay, I end it.36. According to the passage ______.A. sweet-meats and sweetbreads are different thingsB. there should be egg in an eggplantC. pineapples are the apples on the pine treeD. boxing rings should be round37.

His brother gave it to him for Christmas and it didn't cost him a cent. And some day I'm going to give you one just like it…then you can see for yourself all the nice things in the Chri stmas windows that I've been trying to tell you about.”Paul got out and lifted the boy to the front seat of his car.

高考英语阅读理解复习-生态环保、自然灾害类10篇(含解析)

【生态环保、自然灾害类】话题阅读练习(一)(阅读理解10篇)Passage1Earth is in the middle of an insect crisis,with thousands of species declining over the past several decades. Scientists have often blamed this on habitat loss or pesticide(杀虫剂)use.But a new study of butterflies in the western United States has found that warmer fall weather may be an equal,if not more,of a factor.Over the past four decades,more than450butterfly species have declined at an average rate of nearly2percent a year,according to a study published in Science.It’s already known that the western monarch butterfly has plummeted in population by99.9percent and was recently denied protection by Endangered Species Act in the U.S. But the study revealed lesser-known species,like the Boisduval’s blue and California’s state insect,the California dogface butterfly,are heading toward extinction."The influence of climate change is driving those declines,which makes sense because they’re so widespread," says study leader Mathew Forister.To reach their troubling findings,the researchers combined databases of the butterfly count conducted by scientists and amateur insect enthusiasts at72locations in the western U.S.To focus on the contribution of climate change,the researchers made sure to include locations that were relatively undisturbed by agriculture and human development to limit the influence of other threats to butterflies such as habitat loss and pesticides.More than200cities across the U.S.are experiencing warmer fall seasons.In Arizona,for instance,fall temperatures have risen by0.2degree Fahrenheit every decade since1895.As for why warming falls are so harmful,it may be connected to butterflies’hibernation-like diapause(滞育)in the fall.Warmer temperatures could be forcing the insects,most of which live around a year,to stay awake longer and starve.In other words,they’re "getting old and fragile and dying sooner".Given that butterflies are key pollinators(传花粉者),such declines predict bigger problems for plants and even whole ecosystems.Forister adds,"The climate effects will almost certainly affect many other insects;including bees."And these effects will"damage"efforts to protect and restore butterfly habitat.1.What does the underlined word"plummeted"mean in Paragraph2?A.Recovered slowly.B.Decreased sharply.C.Escaped suddenly.D.Evolved rapidly.2.What did the researchers do in Paragraph3?A.They ruled out the effects of human activities.B.They tried to protect the habitat of butterflies.C.They refused to use amateurs’science data.D.They identified other threats to butterflies.3.How do warming falls affect butterflies?A.They affect butterflies’natural life cycle.B.They slow down butterflies’aging process.C.They cause butterflies to lose more habitats.D.They force butterflies to compete for survival.4.What is the main purpose of the text?A.To discuss the importance of butterfly species.B.To suggest a way to fight against climate change.C.To introduce new methods of studying butterflies.D.To present a new factor in a species population decline.解析:1.B理解词汇根据第二段第一句中的"Over the past...2percent a year"可知,在过去的40年里,450多种蝴蝶的数量以平均每年近2%的速度诚少。

The fires are so massive that smoke has traveled all the way to the East Coast, prompting health warnings in Connecticut and Maryland and turning the skies above New York City hazy and red. And from Germany to China, extreme flooding has caused death and destruction. At least180 people in Germany, Belgium and the Netherlands were killed last week when two months' worth of rain fell in two days, causing floods and mudslides. In the central Chinese province of Henan, 14 people died after riders were trapped on a subway amid catastrophic flooding after torrential rains.These terrifying scenes from across the globe have long been predicted by scientists studying our warming planet. Higher temperatures would lead to more heatwaves and droughts in some areas that would fuel bigger, more frequent wildfires. In other areas the warmer climate would trap moisture in the atmosphere, leading to heavier rainfall during storms.Climate change is making normal weather events-heatwaves, droughts, rainstorms and hurricanes more extreme and more devastating to communities unprepared for the attack. What's most frightening, however, is that extremes are happening faster than many predicted. As the last few weeks has shown, there's no time to waste. The summer has already given a terrible glimpse of the future if we don't change course now.( A )1. What does the underlined word “broiled" mean in Paragraph 2?A. Roasted.B.Flooded.C.Burnt.D.Swept.( D )2.How does the author stress the severity of extreme flooding?A. By making comparisons.B. By describing details.C. By analyzing causes.D.

What is the purpose of the passage?A. To inform us of extreme weather.B. To call on us to pay more attention to climate change.C. To instruct us how to survive in extreme weather.D. To predict climate change in the future.阅读理解(3)本篇源自:NatureSince first appearing in India in late 2020, the Delta variant of SARS-CoV-2 has become the predominant strain(主要毒株)in much of the world. Researchers might now know why Delta has been so "successful": People infected with it produce far more viruses than those infected with the original version ofSARS-CoV-2,making it very easy to spread.According to current estimates, the Delta variant could be more than twice as transmissible as the original strain ofSARS-CoV-2. To find out why, epidemiologist Jing Lu at the Guangdong Próvincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention in Guangzhou, China, and his colleagues tracked 62 people who were some of the first people in mainland China to become infected with the Delta strain.The team tested study participants' "viral load”-a measure of the density of viral particles in the body-every day throughout the course of infection to see how it changed over time.Researchers then compared participants' infection patterns with those of 63 people who contracted the original SARS-CoV-2 strain in 2020.The researchers report that the virus was first detectable in people with the Delta variant four days after exposure, compared with an average of six days among people with the original strain,suggesting that Delta reproduces much faster. Individuals infected with Delta also had viral loads up to 1,260 times higher than those in people infected with the original strain.The combination of a large number of viruses and a short incubation period makes sense as an explanation for Delta's heightened transmissibility, says epidemiologist BenjamiCowling at the University of Hong Kong. The sheer amount of virus in the respiratory tract means that super spreading events are likely to infect even more people, and that people might begin spreading the virus earlier after they become infected.And the short incubation period makes contact tracing more difficult in countries such as China,which systematically tracks each infected person's contacts and requires them to quarantine.“Putting it all together, Delta's really difficult to stop," Cowling says.( D )1. What is the purpose of epidemiologist Jing Lu's research?A. To find out whether Delta is a variant of SARS-CoV-2.B. To determine how SARS-CoV-2 progresses.C. To find out the solution to ending COVID-19.D. To find out what causes Delta to spread faster.( A )2. How does Jing Lu's team conduct their research?A.By comparing the participants' infection patterns.B. By monitoring the participants' course of infection.C. By measuring the participants' exposure time to Delta.D. By analyzing the data collected from previous studies.( D )3.Which of the following does NOT make for the fast spread of Delta?A. Delta's high viral loads.B. Delta's rapid reproduction ability.C. Delta's short incubation period.D. Delta's ability to escape the immune system.( D )4.What is Cowling's attitude toward stopping Delta?A.Indifferent.B. Ambiguous.C. Optimistic.D. Cautious.阅读理解(4)本篇源自:The EconomistA toothpaste tube, squeezed and twisted out of shape in a vain attempt to extract its remaining contents, haunts many a bathroom. But not, perhaps, for much longer. Colgate-Palmolive,an American consumer-goods giant, has taken up an invention by a pair of experts in supper-slippery surfaces to produce toothpaste tubes that promise to deliver every last scrap of their contents.In 2012 Kripa Varanasi, a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and DaveSmith,his PhD student, set up a company called LiquiGlide to commercialize their work on making liquids flow more easily through pipes and out of containers. What caught many people's imagination at the time was a demonstration of how this could be used to empty a ketchup bottle without shaking it violently.The new toothpaste, called Elixir, comes in three varieties: a formula for whitening teeth,one for gum and enamel(牙龈和牙釉质)care and a “detox” version which,it is claimed,removes impurities from the mouth. All are packaged in plastic tubes that can be emptied with ease. Elixir has gone on sale in Europe, though no decision has yet been made about whether it will be sold elsewhere.To produce their slippery pipes and containers, Professor Varanasi and Dr. Smith first impose a microscopically textured pattern on them and then apply a suitably formulated liquid. This fills the gaps in the texture, creating a surface across which gooey substances slide easily. Any risk of contamination(污染)can be eliminated by making the liquid in question from materials also employed in the product.Besides pleasing customers who like to get their money's worth, the new,slippery toothpaste tubes should help with recycling. Existing tubes are rarely recycled, not only because they have residue left inside them but also because they are usuallymade from a laminate of plastic and aluminum foil. Mixed materials of this sort are hard to recycle, and therefore end up being dumped in landfills. Despite their success with toothpaste tubes, Professor Varanasi and Dr.Smith have not given up on food containers.( D )1.What is special about the new toothpaste tube?A.Its twisted shape.B.Its delivery service.C. Its remaining contents.D.Its slippery pipes and containers.( D )2. What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 2 mean?unching their products onto the market.B. Setting up LiquiGlide to take up an invention.C. Squeezing and shaking a toothpaste tube.D. Making liquids slide easily on slippery surfaces.( B )3.What can be inferred from the passage?A. The new toothpaste will be sold around the world soon.B. A suitably formulated liquid is vital in producing the slippery pipes.C. Existing tubes are easy to recycle, but hard to empty.D. Professor Varanasi and Dr. Smith find it impossible to apply the invention to food containers.阅读理解(5)本篇源自:Science NewsA new chemical analysis has revealed an ugly truth about beauty products: Many beauty products may contain highly persistent, potentially harmful “forever chemicals” called PFAS.PFAS,short for per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances(多氟烷基化合物),include thousands of chemicals that are so sturdy that they can stay in the body for years and the environment for centuries. Those compounds have been linked to high cholesterol,thyroid diseases and other problems. “There is no known good PFAS,” says chemist and physicist Graham Peaslee of the University of Notre Dame in Indiana.In the first large screening of makeup for PFAS in the United States and Canada, Peasleeand colleagues found that 52 percent of over 200 tested products had high fluorine(氟)concentrations,suggesting the presence of PFAS. The researchers report online on June 15 in Environmental Science & Technology Letters.The potential health risks of PFAS in makeup are not yet clear, Peaslee says. But besides people ingesting or absorbing PFAS when wearing makeup, makeup washed down could get into drinking water.Peaslee's team measured the amount of fluorine, a key component of PFAS, in 231 cosmetics.63 percent of foundations,55 percent of lip products and 82 percent of waterproof mascara(睫毛膏)contained high leveIs of fluorine. Long-lasting or waterproof products were especially likely to contain lots of fluorine. That makes sense,since PFAS are water-resistant.In addition to posing their own potential health risks, these compounds can break down in the body into other PFAS, such as perfluorooctanoic acid, which has been linked to cancers and low birth weights.( A)1.The underlined word “sturdy” in Paragraph 2 probably means“_”.A.stubbornB.harmfulC.beneficialD.flexible( B )2. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. PFAS are the main reason for health problems such as high cholesterol.B. More than 100 tested products are high in fluorine concentrations.C. Scientist have figured out the potential health risks of PFAS.D. PFAS are harmful to health because it can not be broken down.( C )3.Where is this text most likely from?A.A chemistry textbook.B. A cosmetic advertisement.C.A science website.D. A traveling journal.阅读理解(6)本篇源自:The New York TimesIn 1946,a 23-year-old army veteran(退伍军人)named John Goodenough headed to the University of Chicago with a dream of studying physics. When he arrived, a professor warned him that he was already too old to succeed in the field. He ignored the professor's advice and today, at 94, has just got the tech industry excited about his blazing creativity. He and his team at the University of Texas at Austin filed a patent application on a new kind of battery that,if it works as promised, would be so cheap, lightweight, and safe that it would revolutionize electric cars and kill off petroleum-fueled vehicles.We tend to assume that creativity declines with age. On the contrary, there's plenty of evidence to suggest that late blooming is not uncommon. John P. Walsh, one of the professors,joked that the Patent Office should give a “senior discount” because “there's clear evidence that people with seniority are making important contributions to invention". A study of Nobel Physics winners found that, since the 1980s, they have made their discoveries, on average, at age 50.The study also found that the peak of creativity for Nobel winners is getting higher every year.When talking about his late-life success, Dr. Goodenough said, “Some of us are turtles;we crawl and struggle along, and we haven't maybe figured it out by the time we're 30.But the turtles have to keep on walking." This crawl through life can be advantageous, he pointed out,particularly if you wander around through different fields, picking up clues as you go along. Dr.Goodenough started in physics and hopped sideways into chemistry and materials science,while also keeping his eye on the social and political trends that could drive a green economy.“You have to draw ona fair amount of experience in order to be able to put ideas together,” he said. EVERROTIONHe also credits his faith for keeping him focused on his mission to defeat pollution and ditch(摆脱)petroleum(石油).“I'm grateful for the doors that have been opened to me indifferent periods of my life,” he said. He believes the glass battery was just another example of the happy accidents that have come his way: “At just the right moment when I was looking for something, it walker into the door.”( B )1.Dr.Goodenough excited people withA.his switching his majorsB. his newly invented batteryC.his obtaining a patentD.his ignoring the professor's warning( C )2. What can we know about John P. Walsh mentioned in Paragraph 2?A.He excels at telling jokes.B.He received a senior discount recently.C.He believes age is not a barrier to creativity.D.He co-invented the battery with Dr. Goodenough.( C )3.What is the purpose of the passage?A.To inform us of a new invention.B. To analyze the advantages of being old.C. To point out age is no barrier to innovation.D.To predict the age of future Nobel Prize winners.阅读理解(7)本篇源自:CricketLong ago,in the unhappy village of Chelm,there lived an old sage(智者).All the villagers were unhappy because they thought their neighbors had better lives than them. So, day and night, the envious townsfolk would call upon their sage to complain. Before the sage could even raise a spoonful of breakfast to his lips, the baker would burst into his house for a morning's complaint.“They say my bread isn't crispy! Tell me, sage, how I can make crispy bread when all I've got is a hundred-year-old oven that's really an icebox! The emperor's heart is warmer than my oven! And how can I afford a new oven when nobody buys my bread? You see the pickle I'm in? A schoolteacher I should have been. Schoolteachers don't have such headaches.”No sooner had the baker stomped out of the door than the butcher marched in. “My customers do nothing but complain! This chicken's too fat! This meat's too tough! Be a bookkeeper, my dear mother once told me. But did I listen? No. Now look at this pickle I'm in! "And after the butcher complained, the tailor, the shoemaker, and the milkman complained...It was more than a person could stand. Something had to be done. Early one brisk fall morning, the sage marched to the village square, where he posted a huge sign that read: All citizens of Chelm will gather here at noon. Bring a big greenpickle.When everybody arrived, the sage said, “Imagine that everything you are is in your pickle.Your wisdom and your foolishness are in your pickle. Your blessings and your curses are in your pickle. Your talents and your flaws are in your pickle. If you don't like your pickle, no big deal: Pick someone else's. Go ahead and choose."And, with that pronouncement, all the citizens now had the overwhelming task of deciding whose pickle they wanted. The baker's eye immediately fell on the schoolteacher's. The schoolteacher's eye shot over to the tailor's. Every eye examined every pickle in town.To this day, it isn't clear who chose first. Some say the baker, some the milkman, but one thing is absolutely certain: When it was over, the townspeople had taken back their very own pickles.Since that day, whenever a villager approached the sage to complain, though not many of the town folk did, the sage would simply say, “It's your pickle; you picked it, and that would be the end of that."( A )1.What can we infer according to the baker's complaint?A. The oven doesn't function well.B.The townsfolk are too picky.C.He has hurt the emperor's heart.D. Schoolteachers are more welcome.( A )2.Which words can be used to describe the sage?A.Patient and wise.B. Generous and modest.C.Envious and brilliant.D.Impatient and timid.( B )3.Which of the following sayings might the sage agree with?A. Pride hurts, modesty benefits.B. Don't blame destiny, and don't blame the others.C.Behind bad luck comes good luck.D.All that glitters is not gold.( C )4.Which is the best title for the text?A.Turn to a sageB. Decide to be happyC. Pick a pickleD. Choose a career阅读理解(8)本篇源自:Scientific AmericanMindfulness may indeed have psychological benefits. Earlier this year, researches revealed that mindfulness-based interventions had benefits for a number of health outcomes, including stress, anxiety and depression. Although mindfulness has its merits, psychological research has also revealed that in some circumstances it's important to be mindless. Everyday examples range from riding a bike to choppingcucumbers to brushing your teeth.Research has also revealed that paying too much attention to what you're doing can have damaging effects, particularly when you perform well-practiced skills. In fact, this is one reason why some experts appear to “choke under pressure”: They think too much about the mechanics of the task at hand.In a classic study, cognitive scientist Sian Beilock and her colleagues had skilled golfers attempt to sink putts(击球入洞)under different experimental conditions. In one condition,the golfers were simply instructed to pay attention to the swing of their club and say “stop”when they finished their swing. In another condition, they were instructed to listen for a target sound while ignoring other noises and say the word “tone”when they heard the target sound.Counter-intuitively, the skilled golfers performed substantially worse when they focused on their swing than when they paid attention to irrelevant sounds. The effect of paying attention to their swing was so damaging that the golfers actually did better when they were warming up before the experiment began.More recently, psychologist Yannick Balk and his colleagues had golfers try different interventions designed to alleviate the effects of performance pressure. The researchers induced performance pressure by videotaping the participants, telling them that their score sheets would be posted publicly at the clubhouse and encouraging great performance with prizes. Without an intervention, the golfers performed significantly worse under pressure. Yet participants who were encouraged to think about something else-specifically,a song they knew by heart-improved when the stakes were high. It is worth cautioning that these results should be replicated in larger samples and across different contexts.Nevertheless, the important message from this research is that focusing too carefully on the execution of well-practiced motor sequences can cause mistakes. Of course, we should not resign ourselves to going through life on autopilot, missing opportunities t make deeper connections with ourselves, one another and our environment. But there are situations where we should let automaticity take over. The next time you ride a bike, don't overthink it.( B )1. Mindfulness is significant when you are.A. brushing your teethB. suffering from depressionpleting your daily routineD. performing well-practiced skills( C )2. What does the classic study prove?A.What benefits mindlessness can bring.B. How mindlessness works in a competition.C.Whether mindfulness can have damaging effects.D. Why mindfulness can boost athletic performance.( B )3. According to the results of Yannick Balk's study, we'd betterA. be absent-minded in Math classB. listen to the music while joggingC. multitask while learning EnglishD. pay close attention while cutting vegetables阅读理解(9)本篇源自:National Geographic TravelerPick-your-own farms are set for a post-lockdown boom this summer, as people look to support local businesses and spend more time outdoors.Here are four of our favorites.Parkside Farm,EnfieldJuicy blackberries, and strawberries are the stars of the show at this pick-your-own place on the northern edge of London. One key selling point is the “table-top" strawberry-growing system, which means plants are grown in places at waistheight-no more bending down in the dirt to pick your berries. Park side is also one of the few farms accessible without a car,as long as you don't mind a walk-it's 25 minutes from Gordon Hill station.Craigie's Farm, ScotlandJust outside Edinburgh, Craigie's Farm is bursting with produce including cherries, peas,broad beans and, perhaps surprisingly, sunflowers. The onsite shop, deli and cafe have a lot more to offer besides fruit and vegetables-you can pick up homemade jams, meat,cheese and an apple press for making your own juice. There are activities for children too, including a Nature Detective Trail involving encounters with sheep and goats.Hewitts Farm,KentThis family-run farm in Kent offers everything from spinach to apples and blackberries during its pick-your-own season, which runs from June to October(for Halloween pumpkins). There's also a shop selling farm-grown and local produce, as well as free tractor rides for youngsters on Sundays during the summer.Bellis Brothers Farm, WrexhamThis farm in North Wales started growing strawberries back in 1860 and has operated as a pick-your-own since 1967. More fruits have been added since then, but it's still mostly known for its strawberries. Pickers can download Bellis family strawberry recipes from the farm's website,including those for jams and a baked strawberry cheesecake.( B )1.Which place is recommended if visitors want homemade jams?A.Parkside Farm.B. Craigie's Farm.C.Hewitts Farm.D.Bellis Brothers Farm.( B )2. Which of the following is TRUE about Parkside Farm?A. You need not worry about getting dirty on the farm.B.

You can enjoy sunflowers in the sunshine.( A )3.In which part of the magazine can you probably find this passage?A.Travel.B.Books.C.Business.D.Sports.阅读理解(10)本篇源自:Entertainment WeeklyBuilding an entire hour around the lives of teenagers was an uncommon choice at the time.But the inexperienced Fox network decided to have a try. And the result was somehow more popular than Brandon Walsh walking down a hallway at West Beverly Hills High School. "Itused to be kid TV, or adult TV with teenage elements to it," says Julie Plec, co-creator of TheVampire Diaries. "My first memory of teen TV was seeing a commercial for Beverly Hills,90210." Nowadays, she continues, "teen TV is important because it's new.”Maintaining that newness is the big challenge for a television producer that relies on capturing the attention of a constantly changing class of viewers. As networks began to understand the power of adolescent stories(and audiences), moreteen-centered shows started to appear and evolve.With the launches of Gossip Girl in 2007 and Pretty Little Liars in 2010, suddenly teen shows weren't just about love triangles. They needed more, like a mystery, like Riverdale and Elite putting high schoolers in the middle of unpredictable scenarios. “Along came the more hooky(逃学)kind of shows,”says Everwood creator Greg Berlanti. “Everything needed a high-concept package around it.” Often that concept would be supernatural-a trend that can be traced back through The Vampire Diaries and Buffy the Vampire Slayer, among others. Today that theme is bigger than ever thanks to fantasy epics like Netflix's Shadow and Bone.What does the future hold for teen TV? Whatever comes next, “authenticity is always the key,” says Berlanti. “They have to be truthful." And wherever there is an authentic teen story,there's one thing that we can guarantee will come with it:hormones(荷尔蒙).Lots of hormones. ( D )1.According to the first paragraph, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Teen TV used to be common and popular.B. Fox had much experience in making teen TV.C. Julie Plec was a big fan of The Vampire Diaries.D. Newness makes teen TV important.( C )2. What is the big challenge that teen TV producers face?A. To focus only on a fixed group of teens.B.To change the target viewers constantly.C. To create more new ideas and things.D.To maintain the old tradition.( D )3.How does the author develop the third paragraph?A. By making comments.B. By following time order.C.By explaining the process.。

People do this all the time in their own language, so it is necessary (必要的) to do this in a foreign language, too. Here are some examples.1. "What's the matter?" "I went to a party last night, so I…"2. "I feel so tired these days."" I think you'd better…"3."Of course, she never stops talking.

阅读理解专项练习一:1When families gather for Christmas dinner, some will stick to formal traditions dating back tograndma's generation. Their tables will be set with the good dishes and silver, and the dress codewill be Sunday best.But in many other homes, this china-and-silver elegance has given way to a stoneware (粗陶) and stainless informality, with dresses assuming an equally casual-Friday look. For hosts andguests, the change means greater simplicity and comfort. For makers of fine china in Britain, itspells economic hard times.Last week Royal Doulton, the largest employer in Stoke-on-Trent, announced that it is eliminating1,000 jobs -- one-fifth of its total workforce. That brings to more than 4, 000 the numberof positions lost in 18 months in the pottery (陶瓷) region. Wedgwood and other pottery factoriesmade cuts earlier.Although a strong pound and weak markets in Asia play a role in the downsizing, the layoffs in Stoke have their roots in earthshaking social shifts. A spokesman for Royal Doulton admitted that the company "has been somewhat slow in catching up with the trend" toward casual dining. Families eat together less often, he explained, and more people eat alone, either because they are single or they eat infront of television.Even dinner parties, if they happen at all, have gone casual. In a time of long work hours and demanding family schedules, busy hosts insist, rightly, that it's better to share a takeout pizzaon paper plates in the family room than to wait for the perfect moment or a "real" dinner party.Too often, the perfect moment never comes. Iron a fine-patterned tablecloth? Forget it. Polish thesilver? Who has time?Yet the loss of formality has its down side. The fine points of etiquette (礼节) that childrenmight once have learned at the table by observation or instruction from parents and grandparents(" Chew with your mouth closed." "Keep your elbows off the table. ") must be picked up else-where. Some companies now offer etiquette seminars for employees who may be able professionallybut inexperienced socially.72. Why do people tend to follow the trend to casual dining?A. Family members need more time to relax.B. Busy schedules leave people no time for formality.C. People prefer to live a comfortable life.D. Young people won't follow the etiquette of the older generation.73. It can be learned from the passage that 'Royal Doulton is .A. a seller of stainless steel tablewareB. a dealer in stonewareC. a pottery chain storeD. a producer of fine China74. The main cause of the layoffs in the pottery industry is .A. the increased value of the poundB. the worsening economy in AsiaC. the change in people's way of lifeD. the fierce competition at home and abroad75. Formal table manners, though less popular than before in current Social life, .A. are still a must on certain occasionsB. are certain to return sooner or laterC. are still being taught by parents at homeD. can help improve personal relationships2When Johnny Cash sings, people listen. His big, deep voice rumbles out of radios and juke-boxes across North America. His records sell by the million. Country-music fans everywhere, knowhis big hits. They love songs like "Hey Porter", "Ring of Fire", and "Folsom Prison Blue".Johnny Cash sings about a hundred concerts a year. People like what they hear--and whatthey see, too. Rugged and big-shouldered, the singer stands six-two without his black boots on.He's a two-hundred-pound package of muscle and talent. And that scar(疤痕)on his cheek? It'sa bullet(子弹)hole, of course!In the minds of most people, Johnny Cash is "Mr Tough( violent) Guy". He's an ex-drugaddict (上瘾者)who was once put in prison. His grandmother was an Indian. To keep from starvinghe once had to live on wild rabbits killed from forty feet away with a knife. Some people say heeven killed a man.In fact, most of the Johnny Cash story is just that--a story. True, years ago he had a "drughabit "for a short time. He "popped" pills. But he never used heroin or other "hard "drugs. Some-times he'd go wild and get locked up for a few hours . But he never served a prison sentence.There's no Indian blood in his veins. He's been a killer only in song. As for the "bullet hole",it's an old scar left by a doctor who opened a cyst(囊肿).People who know Johnny Cash well say he's a "gentle guy", a "generous guy'--anything buta "tough guy". How did the stories get started? Some of them, like the story about the "Indiangrandmother", he made up long ago to add excitement to his career. Others , like the "bullethole" , simply got started. Now there's little the singer can do to change people's minds. "Theyjust want to believe it," he says.56. Johnny Cash is a favorite of many .A. opera loversB. country music fansC. hard-rock fansD. jazz music lovers57. In truth, Johnny Cash .A. invented the "Indian grandmother"B. used to kill rabbits for a livingC. had a bullet hole on his cheekD. served a long prison sentence58. In his private life, Johnny Cash is, .A. much wilder than he looksB. much smaller than he is on stageC. much tougher than he is in publicD. much more gentle than most people suppose59. The passage shows us that many people believe .A. only what they seeB. what they are sure is trueC. only what they hearD. what they find interesting3Do dogs understand us?Be careful what you say around your dog. It might understand more than you think.A border collie named Rico recognizes the names of about 200 objects, say researchers in Germany. The dog also appears to be able to learn new words as easily as a 3-year-old child. Its word-learning skills are as good as those of a parrot or chimpanzee(黑猩猩).In one experiment, the researchers took all 200 items that Rico is supposed to know and divided them into 20 groups of 10 objects. Then the owner told the dog to go and fetch one of the items and bring it back. In four tests, Rico got 37 out of 40 commands right. As the dog couldn't see anyone to get clues, the scientists believe Rico must understand the meanings of certain words.In another experiment, the scientists took one toy that Rico had never seen before and put it in a room with seven toys whose names the dog already knew. The owner then told Rico to fetch the object, using a word the dog had never heard before.The correct object was chosen in seven out of l0 tests, suggesting that the dog had workedout the answer by process of elimination(排除法). A month later, Rico remembered half of the new names, which is even more impressive.Rico is thought to be smarter than the average dog. For one thing, Rico is a border collie, a breed (品种)known for its mental abilities. In addition, the 9-year-old dog has been trained to fetch toys by their names since the age of nine months.It's hard to know if all dogs understand at least some of the words we say. Even if they do, they can't talk back. Still, it wouldn't hurt to sweet-talk your dog every now and then. You might just get a big, wet kiss in return!60. From paragraph 2 we know that __ .A. animals are as clever as human beingsB. dogs are smarter than parrots and chimpanzeesC. chimpanzees have very good word-learning skillsD. dogs have similar 'learning abilities as 3-year-old children61. Both experiments show that .A. Rico is smart enough to get all commands rightB. Rico can recognize different things including toysC. Rico has developed the ability of learning mathematicsD. Rico won't forget the names of objects once recognizing them62. Which of the following statements is true?A. The purpose of the experiments is to show the border collie's mental abilities.B. Rico has a better memory partly because of its proper early training.C. The border collie is world-famous for recognizing objects.D. Rico is born to understand its owner's commands.63. What does the writer want to tell us?A. To train your dog.B. To talk to your dog.C. To be friendly to your dog.D. To be careful with your dog.4Paynes Prairie(used)Have you ever heard of Paynes Prairie? It is one of the most important natural and historical areas in Florida. Paynes Prairie is located near Gainesville. It is large, 21 000 acres. This protected land is called a preserve. The Florida Park Service manage the preserve.The Paynes Prairie basin was formed when limestone dissolved and the ground settled. It is covered by marsh(沼泽)and wet prairie vegetation. There are areas of open water. During brief periods it has flooded enough to be considered a lake. Except for that, the basin has changed little through time.Man has lived on Paynes Prairie a very long time. He lived there as far back as 10000 B. C. At one time, the Seminoles lived there. The prairie is thought to have been named after King Payne, a Seminole chief. During the late 1600s, the largest cattle ranch in Florida was on Paynes Prairie. Today, Paynes Prairie is preserved land . It is occupied by visitors and Florida Park Service employees.Willam Bartram visited Paynes Praire. Bartram was the first person who portrayed (described)nature through personal experience as well as scientific observation. He lived 200 years ago. He visited Paynes Prairie in 1774. At that time he described it. He called Paynes Prairie the "great Alachua Savannah."Most of the animal life, which Bartram described, is still here. A large number of sandhill cranes, hawks and waterfowl are here in winter. The animal diversity is increased by the presence of pine flatwoods, hammock, swamps and ponds.The Paynes Prairie Preserve State Park is open year round. The Florida Park Service works hard so that the park will appear as it did in the past. It offers many opportunities for recreation. At the park you can camp and picnic. You can hike and bike. You can boat and fish. You can ride on horse trails. And you can see lots of nature and wildlife. You can see Florida as it was inthe early days.Paynes Prairie is a part of our Florida history. It is an example of our Florida natural resources. It is a place for recreation. Paynes Prairie is an important experience of the Real Florida.64. How was the Paynes Prairie basin formed?A. By the Seminole Indians.B. By the Florida Park Service.C. From dissolved limestone and the ground settling.D. From lots of flooding and wet prairie vegetation.65. The underlined word "diversity" means “.”A. varietyB. societyC. populationD. area66. All of the following are true EXCEPT that __ .A. Paynes Prairie has changed little through timeB. Paynes Prairie is covered by wet prairie grassesC. there used to be a big cattle farm on Paynes PrairieD. William Bartram was the first person~ to visit Paynes Prairie67. The purpose of the passage is to .A. call on people to protect widlifeB. attract people to this preserved parkC. show you the formation of Paynes PrairieD. introduce the recorded history of Paynes Prairie5NOT all memories are sweet. Some people spend all their lives trying to forget bad experiences. Violence and traffic accidents can leave people with terrible physical and emotional scars. Often they relive these experiences in nightmares.Now American researchers think they are close to developing a pill, which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce ,or possibly erase(抹去),the effect of painful memories.In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased.The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, While others support it.Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers' troubling memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories."Some memories can ruin people's lives . They come back to you when you don't want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions," said Roger Pitman, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. "This could relieve a lot of that suffering."But those who are against the research say that changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity (特质). They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past."All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but make us who we are. I'm not sure we want to wipe those memories out, "said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist.68. The passage is mainly about .A. a new medical inventionB. a new research on the pillC. a way of erasing painful memoriesD. an argument about the research on the pill69. The drug tested on people can .A. cause the brain to fix memoriesB. stop people remembering bad experiencesC. prevent body producing certain chemicalsD. Wipe out the emotional effects of memories70. We can infer from the passage that .A. people doubt the effects of the pillsB. the pill will stop people's bad experiencesC. taking the pill will do harm to people's healthD. the pill has probably been produced in America71. Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with?A. Some memories can ruin people's lives.B. People want to get rid of bad memories.C. Experiencing bad events makes us different from others.D. The pill will reduce people's sufferings from bad memories.6What's your dream vacation? Watching wildlife in Kenya? Boating down the Amazon? Sunbathing in Malaysia? New chances are opening up all the time to explore the world. So we visit travel agents, compare packages and prices ,and pay our money.We know what our vacation costs us. But do we know what it might cost someone else? It's true that many poorer countries now depend on tourism for foreign income. Unfortunately, though, tourism often harms the local people more than it helps them.It might cost their homes and lands. In Myanmar, 5,200 people were forced to leave their homes among the pagodas(佛塔)in Bagan so that tourists could visit the pagodas.Tourism might also cost the local people their livelihood and dignity. Local workers often find only menial(卑微的)jobs in the tourist industry. And most of the profits do not help the local economy. Instead, profits return to the tour operators in wealthier countries, When the Maasai people in Tanzania were driven from their lands, some moved to city slums. Others now make a little money selling souvenirs or posing for photos.Problems like these were Observed more that 20 years ago. But now some non-government organizations, tour operators and local governments are working together to begin correcting them. Tourists, too, are putting on the pressure.The result is responsible tourism, or “ethical tourism.”Ethical tourism has people at its heart. New international agreements and codes of conduct can help protect the people's lands, homes, economies and cultures. The beginnings are small, though, and the problems are complex.But take heart. The good news is that everyone, including us, can play a part to help the local people in the places we visit. Tour operators and companies can help by making sure that local people work in good conditions and earn reasonable wages.They can make it a point to use only locally owned hotel, restaurants and guide services. They can share profits fairly to help the local economy. And they can involve the local people in planning and managing tourism.What can tourists do? First, we can ask tour companies to provide information about the conditions of local citizens. We can then make our choices and tell them why. And while we're abroad, we can:Buy local foods and products, not imported ones.Pay a fair price for goods and services and not bargain for the cheapest price.Avoid flaunting wealth.Ask before taking photographs of people.They are not just part of the landscape!Let's enjoy our vacation and make sure others do, too.72. What is probably the best title for the article?A. Tourism Causes Bad Effects.B. Tourism Calls for Good Behavior.C. Vacations Bring a Lot of Fun.D. Vacations Cost More Than You Think73. Which of the following is not mentioned?A. Local people were well paid to leave their lands.B. Tourists may stay in hotels opened by local people.C. Local people are mainly provided with low-paying work.D. Tourists could bargain with local people for a reasonable price.74. The underlined phrase "take heart" means" ".A. pay attentionB. take careC. cheer upD. calm down75. According to the passage, the writer thinks .A. tourism is not a promising industryB. dream vacations should be spent abroadC. the problems caused by tourism are easy to settleD. tourists should respect local customs and culture7Robert Owen was born in Wales in 1771. At the age of ten he went to work. His employer had a large private library so Owen was able to educate himself. He read a lot in his spare time and at nineteen he was given the job of superintendent(监工) at a Manchester cotton mill. He was so successful there that he persuaded his employer to buy the New Lanark mill in Scotland. When he arrived at New Lanark it was a dirty little town with a population of 2,000 people. Nobody paid any attention to the workers' houses or their children's education. The conditions in the factories were very bad. There was a lot of crime and the men spent most of their wages on alcoholic drinks.Owen improved the houses. He encouraged people to be clean and save money. He opened a shop and sold the workers cheap, well-made goods to help them. He limited the sale of alcoholic drinks. Above all, he fixed his mind on the children's education. In 1816 he opened the first free primary school in Britain.People came from all over the country to visit Owen's factory. They saw that the workers were healthier and more efficient than in other towns. Their children were better fed and better educated. Owen tried the same experiment in the United States. He bought some land there in 1825,but the community was too far away. He could not keep it under control and lost most of his money.Owen never stopped fighting for his idea. Above all he believed that people are not born good or bad. He was a practical man and his ideas were practical. "If you give people good working conditions," he thought, "they will work well and, the most important thing of all, if you give them the chance to learn, they will be better people."56. For Owen, his greatest achievement in New Lanark was _____________.A. improving worker's housesB. helping people to save moneyC. preventing men from getting drunkD. providing the children with a good education57. From the passage we may infer that Owen was born ___________.A. into a rich familyB. into a noble familyC. into a poor familyD. into a middle class family58. Owen's experiment in the United States failed because _______.A. he lost all his moneyB. he did not buy enough landC. people who visited it were not impressedD. it was too far away for him to organize it properly59. We may infer form the passage that no children in Britain could enjoy free education until ____.A. 1771B. 1816C. 1825D. 18608Do you want to improve the way you study? Do you feel nervous before a test? Many students say that a lack of concentration (注意力) is their biggest problem. It seriously affects their ability to study, so do their test results.If so, use these tips to help you.Study TechniquesYou should always study in the same place. You shouldn’t sit in a position that you use foranother purpose. For example, when you sit on a sofa to study, your brain will think it is time to relax. Don’t watch TV while you are studying. Experts warn that your concentration may be reduced by 50 percent if you attempt to study in this way. Always try to have a white wall in front of you, so there is nothing to distract (make less concentrated) you. Before sitting down to study, gather together all the equipment you need. Apart from your textbooks, pens, pencils and knives, make sure you have a dictionary. If your study desk or table is needed when you are not studying, store all your equipment in a box beside it.Your eyes will become tired if you try to read a text which is on a flat surface. Position yourbook at an angle of 30 degrees.Be realistic and don’t try to complete too much in one study period. Finish one thing beforebeginning another. If you need a break, get up and walk around for a few minutes, but try not to telephone a friend or have something to eat.Test-taking SkillsAll your hard work will be for nothing if you are too nervous to take your test. Getting plenty ofrest is very important. This means do not study all night before your test! It is a better idea to have a long-term study plan. Try to make a timetable for your study which lasts for a few months.Exercise is a great way to reduce pressure. Doing some form of exercise every day will alsoimprove your concentration. Eat healthy food too.When you arrive in the examination room, find your seat and sit down. Breathe slowly anddeeply. Check the time on the clock during the test, but not too often. Above all, take no notice of everyone else and give the test paper your undivided attention.65. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. You should study in a different place every day, so you don’t get bored.B. Your concentration will improve if you study and watch TV at the same time.C. Check the time during the exam at a certain time.D. Staying up all night and studying is tiring, but you will learn a lot using this method.66. What does the underlined word “it” refer to?A. Your study desk or table.B. Your textbook.C. Your dictionary.D. The equipment you need.67. What can be inferred from the passage?A. You shouldn’t look at everyone else during the test.B. You will have enough energy to deal with your study and exams by eating healthy diet.C. You’ll concentrate more if there is nothing to distract you.D. If you feel tired during study, you can walk around for a few minutes.9On June 17, 1774, the officials from Maryland and Virginia held a talk with the Indians of the Six Nations. The Indians were invited to send boys to William and Mary College. In a letter the next day they refused the offer as follows: We know that you have a high opinion of the kind of learning taught in your colleges, and that the costs of living of our young men, while with you, would be very expensive to you. We are convinced that you mean to do us good by your proposal; and we thank you heartily. But you must know that different nations have different ways of looking at things, and you will therefore not be offended if our ideas of this kind of education happen not to be the same as yours. We have had some experience of it. Several of our young people were formerly brought up at the college of the northern provinces: they were taught all your sciences; but when they came back to us, they were bad manners, ignorant of every means of living in the woods – they were totally good for nothing.We are, however, not the less obliged by your kind offer, though we refuse to accept it; and, to show our grateful sense of it, if the gentlemen of Virginia will send us a dozen of their sons, we will take care of their education, teach them all we know, and make men of them.68. The passage is about ____.A. the talk between the Indians and the officialsB. the colleges of the northern provincesC. the educational values of the IndiansD. the problems of the Americans in the mid-eighteen century69. The Indian chief’s purpose of writing the letter seems to be to ____.A. politely refuse a friendly offerB. express their opinions on equal treatmentC. show their prideD. describe Indian customs70. According to the letter, the Indians believed that ____.A. it would be better for their boys to receive some schoolingB. they were being insulted by the offerC. they knew more about science than the officialsD. they had better way of educating young men71. Different from the officials’ view of education, the Indians thought ____.A. young women should also be educatedB. they had different goals of educationC. they taught different branches of scienceD. they should teach the sons of the officials first10Never go into a supermarket hungry! This is a good piece of advice. If you go shopping for food before lunchtime, you’ll probably buy more than you plan to. Unfortunately, however, just this advice isn’t enough for consumers these days. Modern shoppers need an education in how and how not to buy things at the store. First, you check the weekly newspaper ads. Find out the items that are on sale and decide if you really need these things. In other words, don’t buy anything just because it’s c heaper than usual! “New and Improved!” or “All Natural” on the front of a package influence you. Instead, read the list of ingredients(contents) on the back. Third, compare prices: that is, you should examine the prices of both different brands and different sizes of the same brand.Another suggestion for consumers is to buy ordinary items instead of famous brands. Ordinary items in supermarkets come in plain packages. These products are cheaper because producers don’t spend much money on packing or advertising. The quality, however, is usually as good as the quality of well-known name brands. In the same way, in buying clothes, you can often find high quality and low prices in brands that are not famous. Shopping in discount clothing stores can help you save a lot of money. Although these stores aren’t very a ttractive, and they usually do not have individual dressing rooms, not only are the prices low, but you can often find the same famous brands that you find in high-priced department stores.Wise consumers read magazine ads and watch TV commercials, but they do this with one advantage: knowledge of the psychology behind the ads. In other words, well-informed consumers watch for information and check for misinformation. They ask themselves questions: Is the advertiser hiding something in small print at the bottom of the page? Is there any real information in the commercial, or is the advertiser simply showing an attractive image? With the answers to these questions, consumers can make a wise choice.72. All the following statements are true about the phrase “ordinary items” in Paragraph 2 except ____.A. ordinary items never say “New and Improved” or “All Natural”B. ordinary products are usually cheaper than famous brandsC. producers spend less money on packaging of ordinary itemsD. the quality of ordinary items is usually as good as that of famous brands73. What does the writer think about ads?A. They are believable.B. They are attractive.。

It was not until in my late thirties that I made this important discovery: giving-away makes life so much more exciting. You need not worry if you lack money. This is how I experimented with giving-away. If an idea for improving the window display of a neighborhood store flashes to me, I step in and make the suggestion to the storekeeper. One discovery I made about giving-away is that it is almost impossible to give away anything in this world withoutgetting something back, though the return often comes in an unexpected form. One Sunday morning the local post office delivered an important special delivery letter to my home, though it was addressed to me at my office. I wrote the postmaster a note of appreciation. More than a year later I needed a post-office box for a new business I was starting. I was told at the window that there were no boxes left, andthat my name would have to go on a long waiting list. As I was about to leave, the postmaster appeared in the doorway. He had overheard our conversation. “Wasn’t it you that wrote us that letter a year ago about delivering a special delivery to your home?” I said yes. “Well, you certainly are going to have a box in this post office if we have to make one for you. You don’t know what a letter like that means to us. We usually get nothing but complaints.”像绝大部分人,我长大看待生命是一个过程获得。

1The worst tourist in the world is Nicholas Scottie of San-Francisco. Once he flew from the U.S. to his hometown in Italy to see someone at home. The plane made one-hour stop to get oil at Kennedy Airport of New York. As he thought he had arrived home. Mr. Scottie got off the plane. He thought he was in Rome. When nobody was there to meet him, Mr. Scottie thought maybe they were held up by heavy traffic. While looking for their address, Mr. Scottie found that the old “Rome” had changed a lot. Many old buildings were replaced by high modern ones. He also found that many people spoke English instead of Italian and that many streets were written in English. Mr. Scottie knew very little English, so he asked a policeman the way to the bus station. He happened to meet a policeman who was also born in Italy and answered him in the same language. After twelve hour’s traveling round on a bus, the driver handed him over to a second policeman. He asked the policeman why the Rome police employed so many people as policemen speaking English instead of Italian. Mr. Scottie did not believe he was in New York when he was told so. To get him on a plane back to San Francisco, he was sent to the airport in a police car with sirens (警报) on. “Look,” said Scottie to hisinterpreter (翻译), “I know I’m in Italy. That’s how they drive.”1. When Mr. Scottie arrived at the airport, nobody met him because _______.A. he was in New YorkB. he was not in RomeC. policeman could help himD. both A and B2.

Its old meaning is used to express a temperature that is a little bit cold. As the world has changed, the world has had many different meanings. “Cool” can be used to express feelings of interest in almost anything.When you see a famou s car in the street, maybe you will say, “It’s cool.”You may think, “He’s so cool,” when you see your favourite footballer. We all maximize (扩大) the meaning of “cool”. You can use it instead of many words such as “new”or “surprising”. Here’s an interesti ng story we can use to show the way the word is used. A teacher asked her students to write about the waterfall (瀑布) they had visited. On one student’s paper was just the one sentence, “It’s so cool.” Maybe he thought it was the best way to show what he saw and felt.But the story also shows a scarcity (缺乏) of words. Without “cool”, some people have no words to show the same meaning. So it is quite important to keep some credibility (可信性). Can you think of many other words that make your life as colourful as the word “cool”? I can. And I think they are also very cool.6. We know that the word “cool” has had ________.A. only one meaningB. no meaningsC. many different meaningsD. the same meaning7.

They were carrying the usual rope(绳子),and it was hanging down from the basket of the balloon. At the end of the rope they had tied a metal box. This could hold water, or it could be empty.

It went up to 3,000 metres, and the air was very cold. The water in the balloon became ice. Snow fell past the men's basket, and they could see more snow on the ground. The men tried to throw out some more sand; but it was hard. They tried to break the icy sand with their knives, but it was not easy. The work was slow and they were still falling, so they had to drop some whole bags of sand. One of them fell on an icy lake and made a black hole in the iceAt last they pulled the box into the basket. It was still snowing; so they climbed to get away from the snow.

This passage is mainly about “________”.A. How to use ComputersB. Surfing on the InternetC. Information on the InternetD. Internet Safety RulesKey: D BCCDBDo you know why different animals or pests (昆虫) have their special colors? Colors in them seem to be used mainly to protect themselves.Some birds like eating locusts (蝗虫), but birds cannot easily catch them. Why? It is because locusts change their colors together with the change of the colors of crops(庄稼). When crops are green, locusts look green. But as the harvest time comes, locusts change to the same brown color as crops have. Some other pests with different colors from plants are easily found and eaten by others. So they have to hide themselves for lives and appear only at night.If you study the animal life, you’ll find the main use of coloring is to protect themselves. Bears, lions and other animals move quietly through forests. They cannot be easily seen by hunters (猎人). This is because they have the colors much like the trees.Have you ever noticed an even stranger act? A kind of fish in the sea can send out a kind of very black liquid (液体)when it faces danger. While the liquid spreads over (散开), its enemies (敌人)cannot find it. And it immediately swims away. So it has lived up to now though it is not strong at all.()1.From the passage we learn that locusts________.A. are small animalsB. are easily found by birdsC. are dangerous to their enemiesD. change their colors to protect themselves()2.How can pests with different colors from plants keep out of danger?A.

He had an unusual voice and he wanted to work in Disney’s cartoon(动画片) film for children. When Walt Disney heard Nash’s voice, he said ”Stop! That’s our duck!”The duck was the now-famous Donald Duck, who first appeared in 1934 in the firm The Wise Little Hen. Donald lived in an old houseboat(水上住家) and wore his sailor jacket and hat. Later that year he became a star after an eight –minute Mickey Mouse film. The cinema audience liked him because he was lazy and greedy(贪婪的), and because he lost his temper (发脾气) very quickly. And they loved his voice when he became angry with Mickey’s eight nephews(侄子). Soon Donald was more popular than Mickey Mouse himself, probabl y because he wasn‘t a goody-goody like Mickey.In the 1930S, ‗ 40s and ‗ 50s Donald and his friends Mickey, Goofy and Pluto made hundreds of Disney cartoons. He also made educational films about the place of the USA in the world, and safety in the home. Then in 1966 Donald Duck and his voice disappeared – there were no more new cartoons.Clarence Nash died in February, 1985. But today‘s children can still see the old cartoons on television and hear that famous voice.()1. Who made Donald Duck film? ______A. Mickey Mouse.B. Clarence Nash.C. Walt Disney.D. Pluto.()2.

He was so well known for his good knowledge of almost everything that lots of people from all over the country came to learn from him. The great man taught his students whole-heartedly and answered their questions with great patience.One day a student asked him, ― My dear teacher, didn‘t you say you yourself have many ,many more questions about things than we do? But I think we students have far more than you.‖With a smile on his face, the teacher drew two circles ,one as large as a big cake, the other smaller. Then he said , ―Of course, I have learned much more. But it‘s wrong to think that a teacher has fewer questions than his students. Now, look at these two circles. The inside of the bigger one is my knowledge of things, and the inside of the smaller one is yours. Out of the circles is what is still unknown to us. Since mine is larger, I have to use the longer line to draw the bigger circle. That means I have more opportun ities to face what is still unknown. And that‘s why I myself have more questions than you do. The more you learn , the more questions you have. Y ou will never learn enough ,you know.‖()1.

They learn languages, history, politics, geography, physics, chemistry and mathematics. Others go to school to learn a skill so that they can make a living. School education is very important and useful .Y et, no one can learn everything from school. A teacher, no matter how much he knows, can not teach his students everything they wantto know. The teacher‘s job is to show his students how to learn. He teaches them how to read and how to think. So, much more is to be learned outside school by the students themselves.It is always more important to know how to study by oneself than to memorize some facts or a formula. It is actually quite easy to learn a certain fact in history or a formula in mathematics. But it is very difficult to use a formula in working out a math problem. G reat scientists before us didn‘t get everything from school .Their teachers only showed them the way. Edison did not even finish primary school. But they were all so successful. They invented so many things for mankind. The reason for their success is that they knew how to study. They read books that were not taught at school . They would ask many questions as they read. They did thousands of experiments. They worked hard all their lives, wasting not a single moment. Above all , they knew how to use their brain.()1.

You can not eat me.” The tiger asks, “Why?” The fox says, “Please walk after me.
