A(2016·北京海淀模拟) Twelve years ago,I arrived in Central Florida from Puerto Rico.I had heard of a job opportunity and decided to pursue it.But it never became a reality.I quickly learned that being alone without resources in an unfamiliar city was not a comfortable situation to be in.Once my limited funds ran out I became homeless and spent a year and a half living on the streets of Orlando.Apart from feeling not being noticed and missing my family,I had to face another challenge—hunger.For the first time in my life,I,as a foreign man,who had lived my life in the relative comfort of the middle class,understood the desperation someone feels when they don't get enough to eat.I clearly remembered having run a distance of more than 7 miles on many occasions just to make it to a local feeding programme before they closed at 7 pm.Once the need for food was met,the next challenge would arise—where to find a place to sleep for the night.Fortunately,local programmes like the Coalition for the Homeless,Second Harvest Food Bank and the Wayne Densch Centre were an important part of my ability to survive my painful experience.With the assistance of these programmes,I was accepted by a college scholarship programme through the Coalition and obtained two degrees from Valencia.My experience has helped me understand that devoting my life to helping others offers lasting rewards.Today,I am employed as Childhood Hunger Programmes Manager at Second Harvest Food Bank and oversees the summer feeding,Hi-Five Kids Pack,and Kids Café programmes.I am also proud to be able to distribute (分配) food resources to those wonderful programmes and help hundreds more like me.【语篇解读】本文为记叙文,讲述了作者在陌生的地方的经历与感受。

(考试时间:AGenerations of creators have improved our lives with everything that touches off our imagination.Here are some of the brilliant inventors.Ellen Swallow Richards(1842—1911)After earning a bachelor’s degree from Vassar College in1870,Richards was accepted as a“special student”at all-male MIT,becoming the first woman in the United States to attend a science school.She conducted a huge survey of water quality in Massachusetts,an effort that led to the first state water-quality standards in US.Gregor Mendel(1822—1884)In the mid-1800s,he experimented with pea plants to determine how physical features pass from one generation to the next.The experiments established the basic rules needed to cross-breed(杂交繁殖)plants to create a new variety with desired characteristics.Ray Kroc(1902—1984)As the founder of McDonald’s restaurants,Kroc changed the way Americans eat.In1954,Kroc was selling industrial mixers and visited the California restaurant of two of his best customers,Maurice and Richard McDonald. Kroc was impressed by the methods the brothers used to make their hamburgers,cheeseburgers,French fries,and milkshakes.Kroc,an Illinois native,talked the McDonalds into allowing him to create a group of drive-in hamburger restaurants using their methods and name.The first of his restaurants opened in Des Plaines,Illinois,on April15, 1955.Jane Jacobs(1916—2006)Jacobs was not a formally trained urban planner and didn’t have a college degree,but her intelligent views on community planning changed the way Americans thought about cities.In her1961book,Death and Life of Great American Cities,Jacobs advocated human-friendly neighborhoods featuring short city blocks and mixed-use buildings that encouraged resident interaction.She also strongly opposed high-rise developments and expressways that cut through neighborhoods.1.What did Gregor Mendel do?A.He found a new fast food making method.B.He discovered the basic cross-breeding laws.C.He established the water-quality standards in US.D.He helped to plan human-friendly neighborhoods.2.Who is the founder of McDonald’s restaurants?A.Ray Kroc.B.Jane Jacobs.C.Richard McDonald.D.Maurice McDonald.3.When did Jane Jacobs publish Death and Life of Great American Cities?A.In2006.B.In1984.C.In1961.D.In1916.【答案】1.B2.A3.C【解析】本文是一篇说明文。

of the thousands of editions,published in numerous countries,and dating back to the first issue in February 1922,is always a task we enjoy doing.This collection offers a wide range of different subjects.Each one we hope will inform,delight,amuse and perhaps even confound(使惊讶) our readers:from steppingi nside the French artist PierreAuguste Renoir’s inner circle of friends(‘Renoir’s Invitation To A Party’,page 90),to finding peace from depression in a solitary walkon the beach(‘The Day At The Beach’,page 110) and meeting a cat who held a family together as they began to fall apart(‘A Pretty Good Teacher,For A Cat’,page 22).My favourite article,‘Exploits Of Charles’(page 104),is written by a motherabout the increasingly odd behaviour of a little boy in her young son’s kindergarten class.What a handful this young Charles proves to be.Hispoormother!,she thinks to herself.I’m certain you’ll enjoy this amusing and relatable account of a small boy adjusting to his new classmates and teacher.With an endless supply of wonderful stories,surprising insights and experiencesto share,Reader’sDigest remains a place to find fresh perspectives—and a great read.Happy

seriously.She had been teaching for a long time and I was as afraid of her as anyone,including the boys who were typically naughty in the back row.But I also had a life outside of school and had just discovered cheap objects for pranks.One such prop(道具) had two parts:an ink bottle painted to look as though it had overturned,and a piece of shiny black metal shaped like a pool.Of all the people I could have tricked,unexpectedly I chose Miss Baugh.At the beginning of the class,I opened her book and placed the props on one of thepages.Then I waited for the fun.When Miss Baugh saw the bottle and the spilledink,she let out a little cry and looked for something to wipe up the ink with.The trick had succeeded beyond my expectations.But then I suddenly knew I had no control over what would happen next.When Miss Baugh tried to remove the ink with a paper towel,she discovered it was just a piece of black metal.She picked it up,her eyes sweeping the classroom with a deadly gaze.Then came the question:“Who did this?”After some hesitation,I raised my hand.Miss Baugh fixed me with a stare that terrified me,and my classmates.And then,most unexpectedly,she laughed.“Well,it certainly fooled me!” she said.She returned the props to me,and for a few seconds a sweet little aged lady appeared right where Miss Baugh stood.We got back to having a class.But something had changed for me.I began to realize that,if someone like Miss Baugh had a warm heart beneath that crusty surface,thenother crusty people would probably do,too.That may have been the most valuable lessonI learned.4.Which words best describe Miss Baugh according to paragraph 1?A.Serious and experienced.B.Easygoing and selfless.C.Naughty and demanding.D.Scary and narrowminded.5.What does the underlined word “pranks” probably mean in paragraph 2?A.Bets.B.Experiments.C.Tricks.D.Strategies.6.What can we learn from paragraph 4?A.Miss Baugh’s stare wasn’t as terrifying as before.B.The author was given away and finally raised his hand.C.Miss Baugh burst into laughter and gave the props back.D.A little aged lady entered the classroom to give a lecture.7.What valuable lesson did the author learn?A.Crusty people can be easily changed.B.Crusty people may be friendly to others.C.Crusty people are difficult to get along with.D.Crusty people are sensitive to others’ feelings.C(2023广东茂名二模)Do you often pare yourself to other people?parisons can help to make decisions and motivate you but they can also pull you into a parison trap.Whether it’s the number of goals you’ve scored at football or how many books you’ve read,it’s easy to pare yourself to someone else.Scientists say it’s a natural behaviour that helps humans learn from each other,live happily together and achieve more.Although paring can be good for you,it’s not always helpful and you can find yourself stuck in a parison trap.This is when you always measure yourself against others and base your feelings on how well they seem to be doing.Becky GoddardHill is a child therapist (someone who helps children understand their feelings) and author of CreateYourOwnConfidence.She says that parisons can makeus feel good and bad about ourselves.“paring up” means seeing someone doing better than you and using that to inspire yourself to aim higher and tryharder.However,GoddardHill says,“Sometimes it can make you feel rubbish about yourself and knock your confidence.”“paring down” is when you see someone who seems like they’re not doing as well as you.This might make you feel you’re doing well,says GoddardHill,but it can also stop you wanting to improve.If your feelings depend on what other people are doing,“Surround yourself with cheerleaders,” suggests GoddardHill.Notice how people make you feel and spend time with friends who celebrate your strengths rather than pare themselves to you.If you follow social media accounts that make you feel you are failing in any way,unfollow them.“Find ones that make you laugh or show you lovely places instead,” shesays.Finally,focus on your own achievements and how you can improve.“The best person you can pete with is yourself,” says GoddardHill.8.How does a parison trap affect us?A.It makes us focus on our own behaviour.B.It stops us from learning from each other.C.It prevents us from living happily together.D.It bases our feelings on others’ achievements.9.What’s true about “paring up” and “paring down”?A.Both of them usually enhance our confidence.B.Both of them have advantages and disadvantages.C.The former is positive while the latter is negative.D.The former makes us feel good while the latter makes us feel bad.10.What does GoddardHill suggest?A.Aiming to be our best.B.Trying to be the best.C.Trying to be a cheerleader.D.Valuing someone else’s achievements.11.In which section of the magazine can you find the passage?A.Achievement.B.Entertainment.C.Health.D.Politics.D(2023安徽安庆二模)Homemade biodiesel (生物柴油) helps you speed past the gas station towards fuel independence.Our expert outlines processing used cooking oil in a small DIY plant.If you’re guiding your household towards a more selfsufficient lifestyle,maybe you’d like to add doityourself fuel to your l ist of goals.Biodiesel can be created from waste vegetable oil or animal fats,which you can collect free fromrestaurants,or you can grow soybeans (大豆) to press your own oil.Process the oil with a couple of chemicals to produce homemade fuel that can run any device—including pickups,cars,and home heating systems.First,find a reliable source of raw material.Try sourcing used cooking oil from restaurants,functional food panies.If you’re planning to sell your biodiesel,begin by analyzing the available raw material supply,and make plans to size your operation accordingly.Next,build your plant,sized to your raw material supply.A small family operation can fit in the corner of a garage,within the footprint of a single parking space.Allow enough space for a water heater,a tank for storing your iningfeedstock,and a tank for washing your fuel.For starters aim to line up enough feedstock to meet your family’s fuel requirements.If you’re collecting used cooking oil from restaurants,expect that 20 percent of the material you gather will be water and bits of fried food.Water is not your friend when making biodiesel,so you’ll need to remove it by heating the oil and allowing the contaminants (污染物) to settle to the bottom before you pour the oil of the top.You’ll have to make a plan for getting rid of the oily wastewater.Home biodiesel production is not without risks.Making your own fuel will require great attention to detail and safety.Now you know the basics of how to make biodiesel,but you’ll need to research carefully before you begin production.12.Where can you get the materials of biodiesel?A.Oil plants.B.Varied restaurants.C.Abandoned garages.D.Local panies.13.What is the author’s attitude to the use of biodiesel?A.Tolerant.B.Positive.C.Unwilling.D.Opposed.14.What can we infer about biodiesel production from the last two paragraphs?A.It needs enough water.B.It goes without any risks.C.It requires little attention.D.It needs to be improved.15.What is the text mainly about?A.Some research on biodiesel.B.An experiment on biodiesel.C.The importance of biodiesel.D.One way to make biodiesel.Ⅱ.七选五(2023安徽淮南二模)Raising children is limitlessly rewarding but no doubt challenging.Here are some tips for raising a happy,healthy and responsible child.1 Studies find that kids who have televisions in their bedrooms are more likely to be overweight.When a TV is in a child’s bedroom,you have no control over what he’s watching,and you don’t have any opportunities for family bonding time—when everyone lies onto the sofa to watch a favorite show.Get them used to doing chores from an early age.We all know a parent who still makes her high school daughter’s lunch every day. 2 By the time your twoyearold begins talking,he’s old enough to start helping around the h ouse.3 If you really want to teach your teen about money,then stop handing over the credit card and the “allowance”.Instead,put your kid on a budget,open a checking account for him or her,and let your teen really learn how to managemoney.Tell your kid that all clothing,movies,entertainment,fast food,and cell phone bills will e out of his or her checking account which you fund. 4 Just make sure you also set up a savings account for your teen and insist that at least one third of any savings or money from you be put away.Imagine the future with your children. 5 By age ten,kids are old enough to start looking ahead and figure out the value of an education.Studies find that teens who can imagine themselves with a future are less likely to do those things that destroy a future.A.Get the TV out of the bedroom.B.Don’t find yourself in this situation!C.Teach them how checking accounts work.D.Start an activity that you can do with your teen.E.If your son or daughter has a job,then cut back the amount.F.You reduce the risk that your child will engage in such behavior.G.It’s never too

The following strategies will help you to jumpstart healthy eating habits.Morning must-havesResearchers at Harvard Medical School discovered that people who took daily breakfast were a third less likely to become obese (肥胖的) than those who skipped this meal. To enjoy the most benefits, the researchers recommended eating whole-grain foods for breakfast as they are rich in fiber. 2 .Main meal wisdomIf you need to consume meat, choose fish instead of red meat. Studies have linked high consumption of red meat with cancers such as breast and colorectal cancer as well as heart disease mainly because red meat is very high in saturated (饱和的) fats.3 .Food preparation4 .

However, large meals late at night can cause indigestion that influences sleep. So it is a very good idea to have a low-calorie fiber drink just before leaving the office.

主题语境--人与自我第一练七选五Passage1-4突破练-保分必拿限时:14 分钟Passage1语篇类型:说明文主题语境:人与自我--生活与学习词数:约225three simple techniques.1 When you are first trying to think of ideas for an essay, put your pen to your paper and write nonstop for ten or fifteen minutes without letting your pen leave the paper. Stay loose and free.2 Don't worry about grammar or spelling. Even though this technique won't work for everyone, it helps many people get a good store of ideas to draw on.The next technique is to write your draft rapidly without worrying about being perfect. 3 Yet, by learning to live with imperfection, you will save yourself headaches and a wastepaper basket full of crumpled (弄皱) paper. Think of your first draft as a path cut out of the jungle — as part of an exploration, not as a complete highway.The third technique is to try printing out a triple-spaced (三倍行距) copy to allow space for revision. 4 As a result, these writers never get in the habit of crossing out chunks (大块) of their draft and writing revisions in the blank space. After you have revised your draft until it is too messy to work from anymore, you can enter your changes into your word processor. 5 The resulting blank space invites you to revise.A. Make sure your handwriting is neat.B. Let your pen follow the waves of thought.C. The second draft of the essay should be better.D. First of all, learn the technique of nonstop writing.E. Too many writers try to get their drafts right the first time.F. Many beginning writers don't leave enough space to revise.G. Then you can print out a fresh draft, again setting your text on triple-space.Passage2语篇类型:说明文主题语境:人与自我--积极的人生态度词数:约225 Work, family and world events can be so stressful that it feels like optimism and joy are far out of reach. Anyone can get stuck in a bad mood _but you don't have to stay there! 1Once you're in a mood you need to shake, start by going to your happy place. 2 If not, keep a photo on your phone or computer of a beautiful, favorite place and take a moment to imagine you are there. What's the weather like? Whatdoes the air smell like? What are you doing while you're there? How does being there make you feel? You'll instantly feel calmer, lost in the daydream or the memory of your happy place.We can make our situations worse by keeping thinking about negative thoughts. 3 " Bad things always happen to me, " becomes "What lesson can I learn from this situation?" "I wasted the whole day," becomes "I still have 5 more hours left to make today a great day!"Whether it is going for a coffee at your favorite cafe, or catching a movie in the theatre, make sure that once a week you schedule some "me" time. 4 That may mean getting less done during the day, but you deserve to take a mental break, regularly. So give priority to the time you need to recharge.5 Whether it's a rare bit of easy traffic on your way to work or a break in the weather, you won't have time to complain about the negative things because you're so busy being grateful.A. You can also volunteer at your local shelter.B. It helps focus on the present and clear your mind.C. Thankfully, there are ways you can get back on track.D. If you're able, get into nature and breathe the fresh air.E. Relieve your stress and refresh your mind, body and spirit.F. When a negative thought flashes, replace it with a positive one.G.

I had always described it as a once-in-a-lifetime experience, but as soon as I stepped foot on the continent, I immediately knew I needed to return.1 About 50% of the passengers of our expedition (远征) had been to Antarctica at least once before. This goes to show just how magical of a destination it is.That all your senses will be stimulated is the best way I can describe the time on the white continent. How tiny you feel next to towering glaciers and icebergs! The icy water moving through your body as you take the infamous Polar Plunge. The learning of heart-touching stories of survival from explorers of the past. 2Antarctica makes you feel so small and insignificant, in the best way. 3 You get front row seats to witness the most incredible show: nature. It is as much beautiful as cruel. For example, when you see a brown skua (贼鸥) attacking a penguin chick, your heart aches. Then your expedition guide regretfully tells you that a chick that is small in March wouldhave very slim chances of surviving the upcoming winter. The cycle continues, and you're left wondering who to root for.Things move fast in Antarctica, and every month offers something really unique and special to see. In March, the weather is a bit more unpredictable, and the sea ice is beginning to form again. 4 In two more weeks, expedition ships would not be able to break through the ice.The penguins are completing their yearly feather-changing process. 5 The expedition team made sure we kept our distance and did not scare them into hiding under freezing water.These animals, arguably the cutest you will ever see, survive such unfavorable environments. It's absolutely incredible to witness the challenges, the skill, the efforts, all of it. I am forever grateful to have been a visitor.A. The list goes on.B. But this is not always the case.C. Our voyage was the last of the season.D. I was not the only one who felt this way.E. I, years later, did return to this fascinating place.F. They are really weak during this time, and cannot dive.G. Everything has a purpose, and the cycle of life is evident.Passage4语篇类型:说明文主题语境:人与自我--健康的生活方式词数:约215routine. 1 Here are several ways for you to keep moving in hot weather and some tips for safely keeping active in the summer heat.2 Drink 16 to 24 ounces of water, sports drinks, or other liquids around twenty minutes before you begin. Try to avoid drinks that contain caffeine, a chemical substance, because that will cause you to lose water.Choose a proper time in the day to exercise. Avoid the hottest time of the day — between 11 am and 3 pm. 3 Also take care to watch the weather and avoid exercising when humidity (湿度) is high.Dress for the heat. Make sure you wear light breathable clothing before working out in the heat. Some materials like nylon easily absorb sweat and evaporate it much better than cotton. 4 If you become very hot, pour cold water into your hat to help you feel cooler.5 Remember to use a sunscreen with a Sun Protection Factor (SPF) of 30 or higher and apply it every two hours or after you work up a sweat. Avoid getting sunburned because it decreases your body's ability to cool itself down and also increases the risk of skin cancer.A. Wear proper sunscreen.B. Take food and water with you.C. If you exercise earlier, it'll be safer.D. But don't let a heatwave keep you down.E. Choose light colors and also have a hat on.F. And work out early in the morning or late in the day.G.

This reminded me of my seventh grade musical — "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer". I desperately wanted to play the role of Becky, the female lead who was Tom's girlfriend. 1For starters, Becky had to sing numerous solos, and I couldn't carry a tune. I also didn't have long blonde curls like pretty Linda Wright who won the part.I was assigned the non-singing role of Miss Watson, the maid. I had to wear an ugly dress. And I had only one line to learn, " That's what I say. " 2 Miss Watson was onstage in quite a few scenes, and got to repeat. "That's what I say" throughout the play.At last, our production was put onstage. Imagine my surprise when Miss Watson made the audience laugh out loud each time I piped up with "That's what I say". I hadn't known that she — or I — could be funny, or that her character was important in moving the plot along. 3That night, I began to understand that being the star may not be any more fun than being a standout in a supporting role.

She booked a few house viewings and after looking at three places, she fell in love with one house. But that night a feeling of doubt and uncertainty entered her head. 1 Will the others be cheaper?We've all found ourselves in such situations, whether we're considering job offers or buying a new car. It's a problem that involves mathematics and psychology. And it's got a name: the optimal (最优的) stopping problem. 2 It's askinghow long we spend sampling options to give the optimal chances of a successful final decision.Mathematicians have given us an answer: 37%. The basic idea is that, if we need to make a decision from 100 different options, we should sample and give up the first 37. 3 It's a period during which we identify what works and what does not. From the rejected 37%, we choose the best and keep that information in our heads moving forward.Mathematics offers us the best answer to the " optimal stopping problem". But there's just one big issue: Humans are not rational(基于理性的)probability-calculating machines. In fact, the opposite is usually true. 4 In the psychological and economics field, there is an " explore/ exploit trade-off (探索/利用权衡)".This asks whether we should go with a guaranteed "win " ( exploit) or risk going somewhere else for an unknown outcome (explore). The degree to which someone will explore or exploit depends on various factors. 5 Of course, different people are more exploitative or exploitative at different times. Teenagers and traders tend to explore more. Adults and managers exploit more.A. What if the next house is better?B. How much does it cost a month?C. The 37% rule is not some mindless, automatic thing.D. And it ties in with how curious or risk-seeking we are.E. It's then necessary for us to improve our computing power.F. So it falls on psychology to tell us about how we actually behave.G. The mathematical question for Macy concerns maximizing probabilities.Passage8语篇类型:说明文主题语境:人与自我--日常生活词数:约300 If you’ve ever been bitten by a mosquito, you know how frustrating their bites can be. 1 , creating an itch that once you start scratching only seems to get worse. Why does a mosquito bite itch and what can we do?Why does a mosquito bite itch?When a mosquito bites you, it pierces the skin using a special mouthpart to suck up blood and injects saliva(唾液) into your skin. Mosquitoes’ saliva has lots of proteins in it, some of which our body recognizes as foreign things, and our immune cells spring into action to try to fight them. 2 It's actually the body's response to the foreign mosquito proteins it is trying to fight. That's why some people may only have a mild reaction to bites, while others, more sensitive to the foreign proteins, react with large areas of swelling that are more painful.What helps resist the urge to scratch?"Don't scratch" is the advice that most experts and health professionals give. As hard and sometimes unrealistic as it can sound, scratching inflames(使更棘手)the skin, and the inflammation makes the skin itch more. 3 ,”warned DanielMarkowski, technical adviser for the American Mosquito Control Association, adding that in extreme cases, people can scar themselves.Instead, there are dozens of creams and sprays that promise itch relief as well as home remedies (疗法). Choosing what's right for you can often come down to trial and error. In general, all of the various anti-itch creams are very similar. There is no scientific evidence that these remedies work, and they can come with their own precautions or side effects. 4 5Some people can have serious allergic reactions to mosquitoes, although in practice it is rare, V osshall said.

If you choose a desert cactus (仙人掌) as your starter plant, that's fine. 2 That you see a particular species everywhere doesn't mean it's an easy plant to grow. It may be everywhere because it's easy to reproduce in a greenhouse, not at home. Some houseplants that are easy to care for include sweet flag, bamboo, spider plants, etc.3 With too little light, plants will produce small-sized leaves and become leggy. And too much light can result in plants with burn marks and dry leaves. Therefore, you should know what plants need what light and ensure them the right light.Plants also need water to grow. The amount of water plants need depends on the type of the plant.Understanding whateach plant needs will help you water it properly. 4 Even the same species in the same situation in different pots may need water at different times. Treat each plant as an individual.And don't forget fertilizer (肥料). It's important for the growth and development of the plants. Too much fertilizer can result in slow growth and plants just stop growing and start declining if they don't get enough nutrients. 5A. Avoid trying to water plants on a strict schedule.B. Sunlight is the fundamental source of energy on Earth.C. Unfortunately, not every person is born with gardening talent.D. Light, water and nutrients are basic things plants need to survive.E.

Maybe you wake up with a headache or can't take your mind off a pressing personal matter. 1 Luckily, you can use some strategies to recover from a bad job interview.Give yourself time.A bad interview can leave you feeling upset and beating yourself up. Take some time to reflect on the experience. 2 It's easy to become convinced that the interview went even worse than it actually did. Remember, this is only one opportunity, and there will be more.3Once you've spent some time reviewing the interview, ask yourself if there is anything you can learn from your mistakes. Did the interview go poorly because you were late? Were you too stressed? Did you give a wrong answer to a common interview question? 4 You can prepare better for your next interview.Request a second chance.No one wants to ruin an interview, but employers are humans too and understand that people have bad days. If you think you've blown an interview, don't just give up. Although there's no sure-fire success, it's always a good idea to send a thank-you email after your interview, and it can't hurt to explain in the email why you were off your game. 5 Even if you can't save an interview that went poorly, there are things you can do to help reduce the stress. Take a deep breath and move on to the next opportunity.A. Look for lessons.B. Admit your mistakes.C. However, don't think about it for too long.D. Then ask if there is any way you can meet again.E.

You can use it to move between the different controls.The touch screen is a single system for many controls in your car. So simple? Actually, not simple at all, 2 It will always be more challenging to use. It will likely take more time to use for each function.Worse still, the touch screen mayalso put you at greater risk of being in an accident.In a car with buttons and other physical controls, you can often perform the same tasks without looking. 3 And you most likely receive physical feedback (反馈) through your fingers letting you know you've succeeded. Buttons are probably faster than touch screens. With a button, you reach over and easily get your fingers on it.4 They may be effective, but many also require multiple attempts to work.

高考英语阅读七选五专项训练(10题)根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
选项中有两项为多余选项。
专项练习一For over one hundred and fifty years, Americans of all social classes have worn blue jeans.1 Whether they are worn for work or for fashion today.Strauss' invention continues to be popular not only among Americans but also among people around the world.Levi Strauss was born in Germany in 1829. 2 He grew up in Kentucky before moving to New York in 1847.Before becoming an American citizen and moving to the West in 1853, Strauss worked in his brother's dry goods business.This gave him a chance to produce his famous invention.After the gold rush of 1849, Strauss decided to move to the West to seek his fortunes.Strauss did not want to be a person who searched an area for minerals.Instead, he knew he could make a good living by selling supplies to the miners.At first, he planned to sell sewing supplies and cloth. 3 When he heard miners complaining that their clothes were easily broken or they usually tore their pockets during mining, he decided to use a special fabric to make pants for the miners.These pants proved so popular that he quickly ran out of materials to make more.In 1873, Strauss received a letter from a Jewish tailor named Jacob Davis who had invented a process of connecting pockets with copper rivets(铆钉).This made the pants last a long time.Because Davis did not have the money to patent his idea, he offered to share it with Strauss if Strauss would agree to pay for the patent. 4 .By the time Strauss died in 1902, he had made a great contribution to American fashion.5 The business has been growing ever since and Levi Strauss' company is now one of the largest clothing companies in the world.A.As a young boy, he moved with his family to the United States.B.Nobody knew what kind of material was suitable.C.He did and Levi jeans have been made with metal rivets ever since.D.However, he did not get much business for those products.E.He also made a great contribution to America's clothing industry.F.Since they were invented by Levi Strauss, they have become a symbol of American consumer culture.G.As the business grew, Strauss got much money from it.专项练习二Recently some American scientists have given a useful piece of advice to people in industrialized nations.They say people should eat more of the same kind of food eaten by humans living more than 10,000 years ago. 1The scientists say that the human life has changed greatly.Our bodies have not been able to deal with these changes in lifestyle and this had led to new kinds of sicknesses.2 So they arecalled "diseases of civilization".Many cancers and diseases of the blood system are examples of such diseases.Scientists noted that people in both the Old Stone Age and the New Stone Age enjoyed very little alcohol or tobacco, probably none. 3 However, a change in food is one of the main differences between life in ancient times and that of today.Stone Age people hunted wild animals for their meat, which had much less fat than domestic ones.They ate a lot of fresh wild vegetables and fruits.They did not have milk or any other dairy products, and they made very little use of grains. 4 We eat six times more salt than our ancestors.We eat more sugar.We eat twice as much fat but only one third as much protein and much less vitamin C.5 But scientists say that we would be much healthier if we eat much the same way the ancient people did, cutting the amount of fatty, salty and sweet food.A.Stone Age people lived a simple life.B.But today, we enjoy eating a lot of these.C.In that case, they would live much healthier.D.Ancient people also got lots of physical exercise.E.These new sicknesses were not known in ancient times.F.People today probably don't want to live like our ancestors.G.Modern people used to suffer from "diseases of civilization".专项练习三For the rest of March, a disease will sweep across the US. It will keep kids home from school.1 Employees will suddenly lose their ability to concentrate.The disease, known as “March Madness”, refers to the yearly 65 –team US men’s college basketball tournament (锦标赛). 2 Teams compete against each other in a single – elimination (单局淘汰) tournament that eventually crowns a national champion.Nearly 20 million Americans will find themselves prisoners of basketball festival madness. The fun comes partly from guessing the winners for every game. Friends compete against friends.3 Colleagues against bosses.Big – name schools are usually favored to advance into the tournament. But each year there are dark horses from little – known universities.This adds to the madness. Watching a team from a school with 3,000 students beat a team from a school with 30,000, for many Americans, is an exciting experience. Two years ago, the little –known George Mason University was one of the final four teams. 4College basketball players are not paid, so the game is more about making a name for their university and themselves. 5 About $ 4 billion will be spent gambling (赌) on the event. According to Media Life magazine, the event will bring in $ 500 million in advertising income this year, topping the post – season income of every US professional league, including that of the NBA.A. Husbands against wives.B. The players will go all out for the games.C. But that doesn’t mean money isn’t involved.D. College students will ignore piles of homework.E. People are willing to spend more money on watching it.F. It begins on March 15 and lasts through the beginning of April.G. Many people had never even heard of the university before the tournament.专项练习四Everyone knows that the Frenchmen are romantic, the Italians are fashionable and the Germans are serious. Are these just stereotypes or is there really such a thing as national character? And if there is, can it affect how a nation succeed or fail?At least one group of people is certain that it can. A recent survey of the top 500 entrepreneurs (企业家) in the UK found that 70% felt that their efforts were not appreciated by the British public. Britain is hostile (敌意的) to success, they said. It has a culture of jealousy(嫉妒). 1 Jealousy is sometimes known as the “green –eyed monster” and the UK is its home.Scientists at Warwich University in the UK recently tested this idea. They gathered a group of people together and gave each an imaginary amount of money. 2 Those given a little were given the chance to destroy the large amount of money given to others – but at the cost of losing their own. Two thirds of the people tested agreed to do this.3 .But there is also opposite evidence. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development recently reported that the UK is now the world’s fourth largest economy. That is not bad for people who are supposed to hate success. People in the UK also work longer hours than anyone else in Europe. So the British people are not lazy, either.“It is not really success that the British dislike,” says Carey Cooper, a professor of management at the University of Manchester Institute of Science and Technology. “It’s people using their success in a way that seems proud or unfair or which separates them from their roots.”4They set out to do things in their way. They work long hours. By their own efforts they become millionaires. 5 .It hardly seems worth following their example. If they were more friendly, people would like them more. And more people want to be like them.A. This seems to prove that the entrepreneurs were right to complain.B.The one who owns most money in the end is the winner.C.As a result, the survey said, entrepreneurs were “unloved, unwanted and misunderstood.”D.It is not true that British people are born jealous of others` success.E. Some were given a little, others a great deal.F. But instead of being happy they complain that nobody loves them.G. Perhaps it is the entrepreneurs who are the problem.专项练习五1 When a starving man gets a meal, he begins to think about an overcoat; when an executive getsa new sports car, visions of country clubs and pleasure beats dance into view.The many wants of mankind might be regarded as making up several levels. 2 .The first and most basic level of wants involves food. Once this want is satisfied, a second level of wants appears: clothing and some sort of shelter. By the end of World War II these wants were satisfied for a great majority of Americans. 3 It included such items as automobile sand new houses.By 1957 or 1958 this third level of wants was fairly well satisfied. Then, in the late 1950s a fourth level of wants appeared: the “li fe-enriching”level. While the other levels involve physical satisfaction-the feeding, comfort, safety, and transportation of the human body-this level stresses mental needs for recognition, achievement and happiness. It includes a variety of goods and serv ices, many of which could be called “luxury” items. Among them are vacation trips, the best medical care, and entertainment. 4One this level, a greater percentage of consumer spending goes to services, while on the first three levels more is spent on goods. Will consumers raise their sights to a fifth level of wants as their income increases, or will they continue to demand luxuries and personal services on the fourth level?A fifth level probably would involve wants that can be achieved best by community action. Consumers may be spending more on taxes to pay for government action against disease, ignorance, crime and prejudice. 5 In this way, we can enjoy more fully the good things on the first four levels.A.Then a third level appeared.B.Human wants seem endless.C.When there is money enough to satisfy one level of wants, another level appears.D.There are several levels of wants in one’s life.E.At this stage, we now may seek to ensure the health, safety, and leisure.F.Also included here are fancy foods and the latest styles in clothing.G.Different people have different wants on each level.专项练习六We are all called upon to make a speech at some point in life, but most of us don’t do a very good job. 1 .So, you have to give a speech—and you are terrified. You get nervous, you forget what you want to say, you stumble(结结巴巴)over words, you talk too long, and you bore your audience. Later you think, “Thank Goodness, it’s over. I’m just not good at public speaking. I hope I never h ave to do that again.”Cheep up! 2 . Here are some simple steps to take the pain out of speech making. Ask yourself the purpose of your speech. What is the occasion? Why are you speaking? Then, gather as many facts as you can on your subject. Spend plenty of your time doing your research. Then spend plenty of your time organizing your material so that your speech is clear and easy to follow. Use as many examples as possible, and use pictures, charts, and graphs if they help you make your points more clearly. 3 . Don’t talk over their heads, and don’t talk down to them. Treat youraudience with respect. They will appreciate your thoughtfulness.Just remember: Be prepared. Know your subject, your audience, and the occasion. Be brief.4 . And be yourself. Let your personality come through so that you make person-to-person contact with your audience.If you follow these simple steps, you will see that you don’t have to be afraid of public speaking. In fact, you may find the experience so enjoyable that you volunteer to make more speeches! You’re not convinced yet? 5 .A. It doesn’t have to be that bad.B. Take several deep breaths before your speech.C. This article gives some advice on how to give a good speech.D. Say what you have to say and then stop.E. Don’t say what you aren’t familiar with.F. Never forget your audience.G. Give it a try and see what happens.专项练习七There is an English saying:“ 1._.” Until recently, few people took the saying seriously. Now, however, doctors have begun to look into laughter and the effects it has on the human body. 2. ___ Tests were carried out to study the effects of laughter on the body. People watched funny films while doctors checked their hearts, blood pressure, breathing and muscles. It was found that laughter has similar effects to physical exercise. 3._. If laughter exercises the body, it must be beneficial.Other tests have shown that laughter appears to be able to reduce the effect of pain on the body. In one experiment doctors produced pain in groups of students who listened to different radio programs. The group that tolerated(忍耐) the pain for the longest time was the group which listened to a funny program. 4.___.5.___. They have found that even if their patients do not really feel like laughing , making them smile is enough to produce beneficial effects similar to those caused by laughter.A. Laughter can prolong one’s life.B. As a result of these discoveries, some doctors in the United States now hold laughter clinics in which they help to improve their patients’ condition by encouraging them to laugh.C. The reason why laughter can reduce pain seems to be that it helps to produce a kind of chemicals in the brain which diminish both stress and pain.D. It increases blood pressure, the heart beating and breathing; it also works several groups of muscles in the face, the stomach and even the feet.E. Although laughter helps cure the disease, doctors still can not put this theory into clinic practice.F. Laughter is the best medicine.G. They have found that laughter really can improve people’s health.专项练习八Why do some people have many friends while others do not? 1 However, it is not so. Let’s look at two psychological experiments which will give you the key to happy interpersonal relations.The first experiment is called the “Hawthorne effect” after Hawthorne, Illinois, where the experiment took place. A group of psychologists examined the work patterns of two groups of workers in the Western Electric Company. 2 .The psychologists changed the working conditions for one group twice but left the other group alone. They were surprised to find that productivity increase on both occasions and in both groups. They concluded that the increase in productivity came from the attention given to the workers by the management. It had increased their motivation (积极性) and so they had worked harder. In other words, if you take an interest in others ,they will want to please you and you will have good relations with them.3 After Martin Luther King, Jr was killed in the 1960s, a teacher, Jane Elliott, living in an all –white town decided to help her class of young children understand why the Civil Rights Movement had been necessary in America.She divided the class into two groups: one with blue eyes and the other with brown eyes. Other eye colours such as hazel or green were excluded from his exercise. Then she told the class that brown –eyed people were cleverer than blue –eyed ones because of an agent (化学作用) for brown colour found in their blood. Blue – eyed people were stupid, lazy and not to be trusted. Jane Elliott did not need to say any more. The brown – eyed students quickly got used to their new role as the leaders of the class. The blue –eyed students became quiet and withdrawn. Then she discovered something very interesting. Four poor brown – eyed readers began to read fluently in a way they had never done before. 4 .So if you want to be successful and happy, take an interest in others whether they are your classmates or workmates. Congratulate them on their successes and sympathize(同情) with them in their troubles. 5 .A.

Read on to discover the surprising reasons you struggle to stay slim and simple, sciencebacked solutions.You're eating too late.Do you regularly eat dinner after 8:00 pm or snack through the evening? A study found that latenight eating made people hungrier the following day. __1__ Avoid eating between 8:00 pm and 8:00 am.You're not at the gym frequently enough.Working out actively but not seeing results? Consider how active you are outside the gym. __2__ There are 168 hours in a week, so if you do onehour workouts three times a week in the gym, you're only exercising for 2% of the week. Instead, being active throughout your day has accumulative effect on fat loss.You're eating too fast.The faster you eat, the more rapidly sugar enters your bloodstream. People who eat faster tend to have a higher weight and energy intake than sloweaters. I'm always telling my children not to wolf food, but listen to their hunger signals. __3__ You drop off with the TV on.__4__ Sleeping with the TV on isn't restful.

Lose ten pounds? Read a book a month? However, I've never given much thought to New Year's resolutions. I make intentions instead. It means setting one's purpose toward a path instead of action toward specific behaviors. And more than that, I'm setting them in a framework (框架) that will give them wings.Set time, not goalsA wise friend once told me “Do not set a result as the goal. Set the time in which you do the things you want to do.” For example, I usually tell myself I should write more. __2__ . Then, I realize it would be better to set my intention to write and the time to write, say, from 8:30 a.m. to 11:30 a. m.Take advantage of the Premack PrincipleThe Premack Principle is a behavioral strategy that states that the presenceof a highprobability behavior can make a lowprobability behavior more likely. __3__. So, now that I've set my intention to write and the time to write, I can link it to a highprobability behavior, such as dropping my kids off at school in the morning. The point is that it gets the action rolling without much thought or selfmotivating talk. __4__.__5__Let's face it, no matter how much you set an intention, if there's no enjoyment once you start, it will likely fall by the wayside. So, find a path you enjoy that will bring the same results. In truth, I hate exercising, but, luckily, I walk my dog.

sufferings.Hard times are rubbish,but they make you what you are.It’s a lucky person indeed who manages to avoid upset as they go through life.What’s important is how you deal with it.1Embrace negative feelings.2It’s a defence mechanism (机制) that flags up danger so you can avoid it.So,altho ugh you don’t want to be controlled by negativity,you should know that it’s actually a healthy response to unpleasant situations.Count your nice things.Try writing a list of the things you’re thankful for or spend a few minutes every evening writing dow n three nice things that have happened to you that day.3Stroked a dog in the park?Write it ughed at a silly meme on social media?Put that on the list too.Freshen up your home.Nothing cheers you up quite like improving where you live.4 You might want to redecorate a room,or do something as simple as hanging a new picture,or putting out a vase of tulips.5A good morning routine will give you the best possible chance of picking up a good mood every day.Get up at the same time,do some exercise—physical activity is proven to help mental health—and have a good breakfast.A.Start the day well.B.A good beginning is half done.C.Feeling down

scientist who believed that left-handed people tended to be more independent as a result of having to adapt to a world that is largely built for right-handed individuals.1 More likely to have allergies and sleep disordersA study found that left-handed people were 11 times more likely to suffer from allergies than right-handed folk.2Left-handed people use the right side of the brain the most3 meaning that the right side controls the left side of the body and the other way around.Hence there is a well-known saying “only left-handed people are in their right minds”.The right side of the brain is thought to control the left side of the body and tasks to do with the arts and creativity.Are left-handed people smarter?4 One 2007 study “Effect of handedness on intelligence level of students” shows that lefties are more likely to have higher IQ.However,another 2010 study “The relationship between hand preference,hand performance,and general cognitive ability” suggests the exact opposite!5Experiments showed that when given two tasks to complete simultaneously (同时),lefties performed best.This is because right-handed people tend to solve problems by breaking them down into parts and analyzing each piece one at a time.While left-handed people tend to look at the problem as a whole and use pattern-matching to try and solve it.A.Better at multitaskingB.Smarter than the right-handedC.As we know,the brain is cross-wired,D.This one varies depending on how dated your source is!E.Here are a few more fascinating left-handed people facts!F.Mixed-handed children are more likely to experience language issues.G.And lefties were two and a half times more likely to suffer from sleep disorders.Passage3(2023河南周口二模)How to Overcome AnxietyAnxiety is a healthy and normal emotion that everyone often feels.Anxiety may,however,develop into a mental disorder that reduces your capacity to cope with daily stress.When trying to overcome it,you should not try to get rid of your feelings of anxiety but should aim to develop your coping abilities when you do feel anxiety.1 Here come some useful tips to develop your anti-anxiety abilities.Examine your anxiety2 Do not start beating yourself up about it,or tell yourself unhelpful things such as “I will never be able to get out of this” or “I am incapable”.Understand that you can overcome this,and you will.Identify the source of your anxietyWhether you have a panic attack or a sudden round of worry and fear,it is important to determine what is causing your anxiety.Is something in your environment the primary source?3 Determine if your worry is solvableIf you know what your fear is,the next step is to determine if it is something you can deal with,or something that only time can manage.If your fear is largely imagination or can’t be dealt with now,4 If your worry is something that needs to be dealt with,take steps to create a course of action.5If your fear is mind-consuming,take a moment to think about the honest and absolute worst thing that could happen as a result of it.Perhaps you’re getting ready to do a huge presentation,and you begin to panic.Stop and think “what is the worst that could happen?” No matter how creative your response may be,thinking critically will lead to find that should it occur,there are few endings that can’t be dealt with in a reasonable manner.A.Consider the worstB.Think out of the boxC.Understand and acknowledge that you are anxious.D.make the conscious effort to put it out of your mind.E.You can handle anxiety more easily when you are clear about what it is.F.Having the ability to cope with the anxious thought is the key to overcoming it.G.try whatever it takes to solve the problem because you cannot get away with it.Passage4(2023湖北十堰二模)How to link

suggest the habit of reading to enhance your quality of writing.2 Note how the essay uses linking words and the careful selection of them.Pay special attention to the flow and the professional manner in which the essay is presented for readers.Be aware about signposting3 but their use must also be known carefully.Before using them for your purpose,remember that a good essay should essentially rely on these words to help readers understand the logic and make it look more coherent (连贯).4Just that some words connect ideas in your essay doesn’t mean you can use them as you like.For showing likeness or agreeableness,use words like again,too,also,as well as,of course,and so on.If you show contradiction,use regardless,even so,but,nonetheless,besides and so on.For causes and conditions,if,since,so that,due to,are words you must fall back upon.Make a draftIf you wish to see how your essay stands,make a draft and read it thoroughly.5Ask yourself questions if the points have been explained well or

2023届高考英语二轮复习外刊阅读模拟强化训练七选五专题一
高考英语外刊阅读模拟强化训练七选五专题一①Five Wellness Trends to Ditch in 2023In 2022, social media inspired many of the ways we tried to get and stay healthy---but not always for the better. Here are five wellness trends you'd be better off ditching in 2023- plus healthier alternatives.1. Weight-loss shotsOzempic and Wegovy, two injections that are used to treat Type 2 diabetes and obesity, are hot commodities- even among people without those conditions. 1 . These drugs turn down appetite, leading to weight loss, but people who stop using them typically gain it back. Side effects can include pancreatitis, changes in vision, low blood sugar, and kidney and gallbladder problems. 2. Quiet quittingDoing the bare minimum at work, rather than going above and beyond, is a risky 2022 trend. While setting work-life boundaries is a good idea, quiet quitting normalizes staying stuck in a job that doesn't feel satisfying or suit you. That elevates the likelihood of burnout, stress, and anxiety. 2 . Really take the time to look into yourself and your skills, your talents, your passion, and think about whether there's a better match.3. 3TikTok users are bombarded with mental-health content, leading many to diagnose themselves with whatever condition resonates the most. Experts challenge TikTokers to double-check mental-health information with a credible source. Discuss their symptoms with a doctor or other mental-health provider.4. Overdoing melatonin(褪黑素)4 . That's worrisome for a variety of reasons, including a lack of data on the long-term safety of regular use. It's time for a shift in how we think about melatonin. A pill doesn't replace a lifestyle. Reserve melatonin for special occasions, like if you've traveled to a different time zone and need help adjusting to a new schedule.5. Body talkThe body-positivity movement aims to accept, appreciate, and celebrate all bodies, regardless of size or shape. In 2023, aim to practice body neutrality. 5 . Unfollow social media accounts that promote unhealthy body-image ideals. Instead of saying things like I love my body, shift to I accept my body as it is.【题源TIME 时代周刊(January 16-23, 2023)】A. Ban the usage of TikTokB. Diagnosing yourself on TikTokC. But they're not meant to be used without planningD. That means not attaching positive or negative feelings to your bodyE. Instead, think about what kind of job might be more energizingF. But at its core, body positivity still reinforces the notion that there's value in the way a person's body looksG. Americans are getting less sleep than they did before the pandemic, and melatonin use has steadily increased.②Smart swaps that’ll help you lose weight and feel greatEating better and losing weight are usually top of the list when it comes to new year resolutions.___1______. Nutritionist Amanda Hamilton believes there is an easier way to reboot your approach to food and health. She calls them smart swaps – everyday switches that are easy to fit into your life.SWAP: Heavy evening meal for protein-rich breakfastProtein leverage means front-loading your day with protein-rich foods that will help to quell hunger pangs later in the day. __2_____Incidentally, full fat dairy is linked to lower levels of obesity than low fat alternatives.Calcium intake, too, is important for women. So fill up on Greek yoghurt with a sprinkling of granola on top for breakfast.SWAP: Calorie counting for focus on fibreFibre isn’t a sexy subject, but getting enough of it is crucial to healthy bowel movements --- meaningless bloating, more energy and clearer skin. ____3____So try switching your mindset from counting calories to counting the amount of fibre you eat.___4______This is a simple but effective way to ensure what you eat is low calorie and packed full of nutrients. When you choose vegetables that are grown above ground, such as kale, broccoli, cauliflower and peppers, you reduce the starch(淀粉)content of your food. Potatoes and parsnips, grown underground, are high in starch, which translates to sugar when eaten.SWAP: Deprivation for enjoying your favouritesYou don’t need to cut out all your favourite drinks or snacks. It’s important to still enjoy them. Think to yourself, what’s the one thing you really don’t want to give up? It could even be wine or chocolate. ____5_____An all-or-nothing deprivation mindset doesn’t help, because when you have that inevitable slip from your super strict diet, you tend to think it’s all over and give up.【题源Daily Mirror 每日镜报(January 9, 2023)】A. SW AP: Grown underground for grown overgroundB.SW AP: Raw tomatoes for cooked tomatoesC. But while January is often the time people embark on restrictive diets, these can prove hard to stick toD. At the moment, the average UK adult consumes around half of the daily 30g recommended intake.E. Try switching your protein focus to the morning, having eggs or full fat yoghurt.F. If you have a glass of wine or two, having planned for it, you won’t feel like something has been taken away from you.G.From the get-go, keep having it, but plan it.③5 Ways To Be Healthy On A Budget1. Go to bed an hour earlier___1_____. So it’s obvious that going to bed earlier could save you money. Getting adequate sleep makes you less stressed and puts you in a better mood, as well as bolstering your immune system and helping to protect you from heart disease, diabetes and dementia.2. __2______There’s no need for an expensive gym membership or classes, or costly kit; the internet is a rich resource for videos on activities as varied as yoga, high intensity or low-impact workouts, Pilates or dance. If you want to get more fresh air, then opt for brisk walking or running or cycling. Being outdoors in nature is also good for your mental health.3. Turn the heating down a notchWe don’t want anyone to be living in a cold home, but many of us still keep our thermostat higher than necessary. A room that’s too hot can dry out sinuses and cause skin problems, dry eyes and dehydration, which can trigger headaches._____3____4. Ditch the car for short journeysFor local errands or meeting people, walk or cycle. This will save money on fuel, plus help prevent you from being too sedentary. ___4______5. Cut back on the booze____5_____Given that a bottle of wine adds £5 or more to your shopping bill, now would seem a good time to refocus on the recommended limits—14 units per week for both men and women. Have at least two alcohol-free days and try setting a weekly alcohol budget and not exceeding it. 【题源Reader’s Digest (November, 2022)】A. Get fit on the cheapB.Make smart food swapsC. Inactivity has been called the “silent killer” and linked with heart disease and strokes.D. 18°C is the ideal temperature for healthy, adequately dressed people.E. Soft drinks are often high in sugar or additives.F. Lighting and electronics account for around 30 percent of your electricity usageG. Repeated lockdowns led to many of us upping our alcohol intake.④Loneliness is an emotion. We probably all experience it at some point, but loneliness is very complex and unique to each of us.____1_____Being alone is a choice, whereas feeling lonely isn’tsomething we impose on ourselves. You want to be around people, ____2____Loneliness will become a problem when it becomes chronic and when you’re feeling lonely over a long period of time. It can turn into a mental and physical health problem. It can be a symptom or cause of depression. ___3____You might turn to food and not feel motivated to exercise, as chronic loneliness is linked to increased risk of high blood pressure, obesity and even dementia.It will be easy to managing loneliness. Accept and acknowledge it. Loneliness is a valid feeling. Don’t brush it under the carpet, as that doesn’t help solve the problem. Seek joy in little things, like smelling a flower or a walk in nature. ____4_____When you decide to change things and seek a connection with others, consider a like-minded group._____5____The best approach is to sensitively ask how they are and what they’re doing, and listen to the answer in a non-judgemental way. If you want to invite them to do something with you, do it. If they say no, don’t be discouraged from asking again. They might need time before feeling ready to say yes.【题源Reader’s Digest (November, 2022)】A.How to become a specialist in loneliness?B. How can people help someone who is lonely?C. There’s a big difference between loneliness and solitude.D. It can affect self-esteem.E. but something is making you feel unwanted, empty or isolated.F.

Understanding wha t drives perfectionism is the first step toward releasing this self-created anchor that keeps us stuck.Shame and fear are often the hidden drivers of perfectionism.We believe that if we can fashion a perfectly polished personality,flash our intelligence,and perfect our humour,then no one can hurt us with criticism and we’ll win respect and approval.2 Politicians who display a desperate need to be right and refuse to acknowledge mistakes or uncertainty are often driven by a secret shame.They fear that showing vulnerability(弱点) will expose them to the accusation that they’re weak.They stick to a desire to be right,perfect,and polished,even when it’s obvious that the emperor has no clothes.Perfectionism keeps us leaning toward the future.We’re constantly evaluating ourselves in order to do better. 3 However,if we can’t relax and enjoy lighter moments,then we become prisoners of our perfectionism.We get painfully self-conscious and take ourselves too seriously.Sadly,we deprive(剥夺) ourselves of the simple pleasure of enjoying the moment and being ourselves.4 We realize that failing at any enterprise doesn’t mean that we are a failure.Without failures,we’ll never learn from our mistakes;we’ll never move forward in our lives.Those who succeed have made countless mistakes.The important thing is to learn from our error,forgive ourselves and move on.Being human,perfection is impossible. 5 Releasing ourselves from the desire to protect our image,we’re freed to sail gracefully through our successes and f ailures—and enjoy our precious life.A.Do you hold an idealized vision that is impossible to realize?B.A cure to perfectionism is to make room for our human shortcomings.C.Do you fear that others will be horrified by what you judge about yourself?D.The addiction to staying perfect protects us from any sign of being imperfect.E.There’s nothing wrong with wanting to do our best and self-correcting along the way.F.People who are addicted to perfection are often isolated,even if they seem outgoing and popular.G.By accepting ourselves as we are and doing our best,we begin to rid the shame that drives perfectionism.【答案】 1.A 2.D 3.E 4.B 5.G【解析】这是一篇说明文。

2 .Why not visit a local park,forest or beach?If none of the above is easily accessible to you,explore the woods of your own neighborhood.Just trying an eco-friendly project in gardens like zero-waste-bird-feeding is also a good choice.3 .Many people find that connecting to the natural environment makes them happy for a much longer time,compared with crazy shopping,which only brings temporary excitement but,more likely,lasting harm to the planet.It’s no accident that meditation (冥思) apps and videos are often themed with rain,forests and calming ocean sounds. 4 ,what’s the point of paying to do it online?Why not challenge yourself to connect with the earth by simply noticingwhat’s around you?Save the planet by“plogging”!Plogging simply means collecting litter as you jog,or walk around your community.Why not host a plogging event of your own?

阅读七选五模拟检测(一)(共4篇,限时40分钟)A(2018·金丽衢十二校联考)How to Cut Back on Playing Video GamesAs you get older and shoulder more responsibilities in your life, your gaming time might need to adjust.Here’s what worked well for me. Start Tracking Your Gaming TimeOne of the reasons why video games eat up so much time is that they’re so engaging.I can’t count how many times I’ve sat down to play games for “a couple of minutes” then looked up to see hours have gone by.“Trackin g your gaming time can help,” says psychologist John M.Grohol.Prepare a spreadsheet or a piece of paper, and write down when you start playing a game and when you stop.__1__ I found it helpful. Start Choosing Games Wisely__2__ MMOs and RPGs, for example, are major time sinks.I would probably cry if I looked at my total time spent during the golden age of World of Warcraft.If you’re having a hard time stepping away from these kinds of games because there’s so much to do in them, cut them out of your gaming diet.__3__ That way, you can play in short bursts.I still indulge in these kinds of games occasionally, but I don’t play as much as I used to.Figure out What You’re EscapingVideo games are a fun way to destress and also one of the most advanced forms of escapism out there.To reduce my gaming thirst, I started looking at my escapism habits from another angle.__4__ Video games do offer a nice respite from the harsh truths of reality.More often than not, I would be able to identify the things that were stressing me out and making me want to escape to virtual worlds in the first place.If work was getting me down, I’d make a practical plan on how to improve it instead of grabbing a controller.__5__ The real world doesn’t always offer that, but it never will if you always run from the issues in your life.A.Why not get away from the game you are crazy about?B.Shift your focus to games that are more pickupandplay.C.Then add up your total gaming time at the end of each week.D.We find it hard to get rid ourselves of the addiction to games.E.I asked myself “What am I hiding from?” and worked from there.F.Some games require a much bigger time investment than other games.G.We often run to video games because they make us feel powerful and in control.语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文,介绍了如何逐步减少在电子游戏上的时间的一些方法。

The following strategies will help you to jumpstart healthy eating habits.Morning musthavesResearchers at Harvard Medical School discovered that people who took daily breakfast were a third less likely to become obese (肥胖的) than those who skipped this meal. To enjoy the most benefits, the researchers recommended eating wholegrain foods for brea kfast as they are rich in fiber. __2__.Main meal wisdomIf you need to consume meat, choose fish instead of red meat.

As such, cooking methods such as steaming, baking, grilling, boiling or stirfrying are advised.__5__Some people like to eat a large meal after a hard day's work. However, large meals late at night can cause indigestion that influences sleep. So it is a very good idea to have a lowcalorie fiber drink just before leaving the office.

作者介绍了养成健康饮食好习惯的几种策略。
1.解析:F 依据首句中的“均衡饮食能增强免疫系统”可知,F项中的“但是我们大多数人由于混乱的生活方式没能获得充足的营养”与之对应,并引出下句。
2.解析:G 研究者推荐早餐吃富含纤维素的全谷类食物,故接下来应该说明纤维素对人体的好处,故选G。
3.解析:C 该段主要涉及吃正餐的学问,即多吃鱼肉少吃红肉。
红肉中含有大量饱和脂肪,故选C项“相反,鱼肉中含有更多的有益于心脏健康的脂肪”与之作对比。
4.解析:E 该段主要涉及食物烹饪建议,从后句中的“蒸、烘、烤、煮或炒”这些烹饪方法可知选E与之匹配。
5.解析:A 根据后文可知该段主要讲晚上吃大餐会影响消化,再结合上文几个小标题考虑,“晚餐少食”最佳,故选A。
B(2017·济南模拟)While you are travelling abroad, cultural mistakes are more serious than linguistic mistakes, which can lead to serious misunderstanding and even ill feeling between individuals. __6__●Touching Someone__7__ In Mediterranean countries, if you don't touch someone's arm when talking to them or if you don't greet them with kisses or a warm hug, you'll be considered cold. But backslap (拍背) someone who isn't a family member or a good friend in Korea, and you'll make them uncomfortable. In Thailand, the head is considered sacred —never even pat a child on the head.●Talking over DinnerIn some countries, like China, Japan and some African nations, the food is the thing, so don't start chatting about your day's adventures while everyone else is digging into dinner.__8__ It's not because your group is unfriendly, but because mealtimes are for eating, not talking.● Removing Your Shoes or NotTake off your shoes when arriving at the door of a London dinner party and the hostess will find you uncivilized, but fail to remove your shoes before entering a home in Asia, Hawaii, or the PacificIslands and you'll be considered disrespectful.So,if you see a row of shoes at the door, start undoing your laces. __9__ Once you are on the ground of a different country, remain highly sensitive to native behavior. __10__ And don't feel offended if something seems offensive —like queue jumping. After all, this is a global village, and we are all very different.A.Personal space varies as you travel the globe.B.Asians consider removing shoes impolite at home.C.Never be completely surprised by anything.D.The linguistic mistake means that someone is not fully expressing his idea.E.Look out for the following cultural mistakes and try to avoid them.F.If not, keep the shoes on.G.You'll likely be met with silence.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文,讲述了一些出国旅游时应当注意的文化上的错误。
【段意梳理】第一段:外出旅游时,文化方面的错误比语言方面的错误更容易造成误解。
第二段:触碰某人。
不同国家对于触碰某人有不同的习俗。
第三至四段:边吃边谈。
在一些国家如中国、日本和一些非洲国家,吃饭时不说话。
第五段:是否脱鞋。
不同国家对进门是否脱鞋也有不同的习俗。
第六段:当你在国外时,应当对当地的习俗保持高度的敏感。

故选A项。
8.解析:G 上文介绍在中国、日本和一些非洲国家,吃饭时不要闲谈。
由此可知,吃饭时要保持沉默,只有G项与此相关。
故选G项。
9.解析:F 该空与前一句是相反的情况,上文提到“如果你在门口看到一排鞋子,就松开你的鞋带”,接下来就应当描写与之相反的情况,故选F项。
10.解析:C 从空后的“And don't... like queue different”可知,此空与该句表并列关系,也应是“不要……”,故选C项。
