C【2022届广东省韶关市高三综合测试】While a healthy diet has always been considered necessary for overall wellness, historically, many hospitals have overlooked its powerful potential for healing. In some areas, that’s beginning to change. In Pennsylvania four years ago, St. Luke’s Hospital partnered with Rodale Institute to start an organic produce farm at t he hospital’s campus in Easton. Since its first season, the St. Luke’s farm has expanded to grow 100 fruit and vegetable breed on 11 acres.Hospital farms are part of broader movement to make organic, locally produced food accessible to the general population. Some hospitals are making it a priority to source food from nearby farms, while others are turning deserted land on their grounds into community gardens. By making organic produce easily accessible to the patients and visitorsenough to completely supply their staff and patient food needs, providing even a small amount of fresh produce makes an educational statement about how healthy and delicious a plant-rich diet can be.While the movement continues to gain attraction, it’s encountering some challenges along the way. For example, health workers don’t necessarily know how to grow food. This means that most hospitals need to h ire a full-time farmer and other farm labor to manage the property, which can be expensive. It takes between 3 and 5 years for most hospital farms to break even, much less save money on food costs. Nonetheless, participating hospitals believe that the benefits are worthwhile. As the movement continues to expand, you might soon experience a farm-fresh meal at a hospital near you.28. What change is taking place in St. Luke’s hospital according to Paragraph 1?A. Expanding the planting area of organic food.B. Understanding better the role of a healthy diet.C. Starting an organic farm at the hospital alone.D. Neglecting the healing power of organic produce.29. How do hospital farms make organic food more available to the public?A. By inspiring staff to grow more.B. By growing food in nearby farms.C. By purchasing more land as farms.D. By gardening on the deserted land.30. What is the challenge of the movement?A. The rising cost of foods.B. The inefficient management.C. The public less-open attitude.D. The lack of workforce with planting skills.31. What do the hospitals involved think of the movement?A. Doubtful.B. Optimistic.C. Critical.D. Passive.28. B 29. D 30. D 31. B【解题导语】这是一篇说明文。

选项中有两项为余外选项。

Every animal sleeps, but the reason for this has remained foggy. When lab rats are not allowed to sleep, they die within a month. 71One idea is that sleep helps us strengthen new memories. 72 We know that, while awake, fresh memories are recorded by reinforcing (加强) connections between brain cells, but the memory processes that take place while we sleep have been unclear.Support is growing for a theory that sleep evolved so that connections between neurons(神经元) in the brain can be weakened overnight, making room for fresh memories to form the next day. 73Now we have the most direct evidence yet that he is right. 74 The synapses in the mice taken at the end of a period of sleep were 18 per cent smaller than those taken before sleep, showing that the connections between neurons weaken while sleeping.If Tononi’s theory is right, it would explain why, when we miss a night`s, we find it harder the next day to concentrate and learn new information — our brains may have smaller room for new experiences.Their research also suggests how we may build lasting memories over time even though the synapses become thinner. The team discovered that some synapses seem to be protected and stayed the same size. 75 “You keep what matters,” Tononi says.A. We should also try to sleep well the night before.B. It’s as if the brain is preserving its most important memories.C. Similarly, when people go for a few days without sleeping, they get sick.D. The processes take place to stop our brains becoming loaded with memories.E. That’s why students do better in tests if they get a chance to sleep after learning.F. “Sleep is the price we pay for learning,” says Giulio Tononi, who developed the idea.G. Tononi’s team measured the size of these connections, or synapses, in the brains of 12 mice. 【答案】71C 72E 73F 74G 75B【解析】73.依照下文中的he，可知此处要提到一个人，以及他的理论，正好F项中有，故选F。

Although dieters may really show weight loss from a fad diet, they will almost certainly get back the weight if their usual eating habits (习惯) remain unchanged. Moreover, fad diets continuously call for special products of questionable value or for “health foods” that may cost twice as much as supermarket(超市) foods. Worse yet, certain fad diets don't include nutrients(营养)good for health. People have been known to become very ill as a resultof following medically unhealthy diets.The worse fact of fad diets, though, is that they keep people who are over-weight or sick from receiving the medical care that they truly need.46. The word “fad” in the first sentence means ______.A. newB. wonderfulC. popular quicklyD. loved by people47. From the text we know that ______.A. people refuse to accept fad dietsB. fad diets can help people to lose weightC. a man can lose weight after eating a fad dietD. fad diets are now welcomed by people48.

The last paragraph tells us ______.A. that fad dieters are often overweightB. fad dieters need medical care if they are overweight or sickC. how fad dieters get sickD. overweight or sick fad dieter can’t get medical care in timeB篇People in the United States honor their parents with 2 special days: Mother’s Day on the second S unday in May and Father’s Day on the 3rd Sunday in June. These days are to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens. They give love and care. These two days offer an opportunity to think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers. More mothers now work outside the home and more fathers must help with childcare.These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On mother’s Day, people wear carnations. A red one symbolizes a living mother. A white one shows that the mother is dead. Many people attend religious services to honor parents. It’salso a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery(grave). On these days families get together at home as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecue for Father’s Day. These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.Another tradition is to give cards and gifts. Children make them in school. Many people make their own presents. These are more valued than those bought in stores. It’s not the value of the gift that is important, but “the thought that counts”. Greeting card stores, florists, candy makers, bakers, phone companies and other stores do lots of business during these holidays.51.Which is NOT a reason for children to show love and respect for parents?A. Parents bring up children.B. Parents give love and care to childrenC. Parents educate children to be good persons.D. Parents pass away before children grow up.52.What do you know from the passage?A.

People can wear them only on the second Sunday in May.54.On Mother’s Day and Father’s Day ___________.A. people sometimes have family partiesB. everyone goes to the cemeteryC. children always go to parents’ homeD. hand-made cards are the most valuable gifts.55.What do you think “florists” do ?A.

超实用高考英语专题复习：专题8 改善民生提高生活质量--备战2023年高考英语命题热点素材二十大题型

08 改善民生1.改善民生，提高生活质量Improving the people's well-being and raising quality of life2. 民谋利是治国理政的根本原则。

为人民谋福祉，是我们党坚持为公益服务、执政为民的重要内容。

Working for the people's wellbeing is an essential part of the Party's commitment to serving the public good and exercising governance for the people.3. 我们必须在发展中保障和改善民生，推动全体人民为实现对美好生活的向往而共同奋斗。

We must ensure and improve the people's well-being in the course of pursuing development and encourage everyone to work hard together to meet the people's aspirations for a better life.For many, moss(苔藓) is nothing but a humble tiny plant growing in some invisible corners, but for villagers in the mountainous town of Maoyang, it is 1 cash cow that has carried them out of poverty and on a path to further affluence.The remote town 2 (locate) in one of the least developed counties of East China's Zhejiang province, a major economic powerhouse and a pilot zone for 3 (achiev) common prosperity.Building on its distinctive 4 (nature) resources, the town has nurtured a burgeoning niche industry of breeding moss and selling related products such as potted plants, 5 are in rising demand in China as people's lives improve. Last year, the moss business generated over 17 million yuan (about $2.4 million) for the 6 (villager)."To make locals rich, you have 7 (foster) an industry. To grow bigger, the industry has to leverage local advantages," 8 (say) Lei Xiaohua, the town's Party chief and a delegate to the ongoing 20th National Congress of the Communist Party of China.Lei now has even 9 (strong) confidence in her town's future, as new arrangements have been made in a report to the congress to attain solid progress in promoting common prosperity10 the country's entire population.【答案】1.a 2．is located 3．achieving 4．natural 5．which6.villagers 7．to foster 8．said 9．stronger 10．forPassage1Measles(麻疹), which once killed 450 children each year and disabled even more, was nearly wiped out in the United States 14 years ago by the universal use of the MMR vaccine(疫苗). But the disease is making a comeback, caused by a growing anti-vaccine movement and misinformation that is spreading quickly. Already this year, 115 measles cases have been reported in the USA, compared with 189 for all of last year.The numbers might sound small, but they are the leading edge of a dangerous trend. When vaccination rates are very high, as they still are in the nation as a whole, everyone is protected. This is called “herd immunity”, which protects the people who get hurt easily, including those who can’t be vaccinated for medical reasons, babies too young to get vaccinated and people on whom the vaccine doesn’t work.But herd immunity works only when nearly the whole herd joins in. When some refuse vaccination and seek a free ride, immunity breaks down and everyone is in even bigger danger.That’s exactly what is happening in small neighborhoods around the country from Orange County, California, where 22 measles cases were reported this month, to Brooklyn, N.Y., where a 17-year-old caused an outbreak last year.The resistance to vaccine has continued for decades, and it is driven by a real but very small risk. Those who refuse to take that risk selfishly make others suffer.Making things worse are state laws that make it too easy to opt out(决定不参加) of what are supposed to be required vaccines for all children entering kindergarten. Seventeen states allow parents to get an exemption(豁免), sometimes just by signing a paper saying they personally object to a vaccine.Now, several states are moving to tighten laws by adding new regulations for opting out. But no one does enough to limit exemptions.Parents ought to be able to opt out only for limited medical or religious reasons. But personal opinions? Not good enough. Everyone enjoys the life-saving benefits vaccines provide, but they’ll exist only as long as everyone shares in the risks.1、The first two paragraphs suggest that ____________.A.a small number of measles cases can start a dangerous trendB.the outbreak of measles attracts the public attentionC.anti-vaccine movement has its medical reasonsrmation about measles spreads quickly2、Herd immunity works well when ____________.A.exemptions are allowedB.several vaccines are used togetherC.the whole neighborhood is involved inD.new regulations are added to the state laws3、What is the main reason for the comeback of measles?A.The overuse of vaccine.B.The lack of medical care.C.The features of measles itself.D.The vaccine opt-outs of some people.4、What is the purpose of the passage?A.T o introduce the idea of exemption.B.T o discuss methods to cure measles.C.T o stress the importance of vaccination.D.T o appeal for equal rights in medical treatment.Passage2If you are taking vitamin supplements to reduce your risk of heart disease or cancer, a group of health experts want you to know that those vitamins may actually increase your risk of cancer. The US Preventive Services T ask Force came to this conclusion after reviewing dozens of studies. Nearly half of adults in the US take at least one vitamin or mineral supplement on a regular basis. These pills are advertised as a way to promote general health. In some cases, manufacturers promote them as cancer fighters and heart protectors.Studies in animals and in laboratory dishes suggest that oxidative (氧化性的) stress contributes to diseases like cancer and heart disease. If so, there is a reason to believe that antioxidants—including beta-carotene, vitamins A, C, and E—could be useful as preventive medicines.But when the Task Force examined the medical evidence on vitamins, it found “inadequate(不充分的) evidence” to support the claims that vitamin and mineral supplements benefit healthy adults.“Cardiovascular (心血管的) disease and cancer have a significant health impact in America, and we all want to find ways to prevent these diseases,” Dr. Virginia Moyer, who heads the T ask Force, said in a statement. But so far, she added, the medical evidence does not show that taking vitamins is helpful in this regard.However, the T ask Force did find “ad equate ev idence” that people with a raised risk for lung cancer actually increase their risk further by taking beta-carotene, a precursor of vitamin A.The T ask Force recommendations of taking vitamins regularly apply to healthy adults aged 50 and older who don’t have “special nutritional needs”. The advice does not apply to children, women who are pregnant or may become pregnant, people with chronic illnesses, or people whohave to take supplements because they can’t get all their essential nutrients from their diet.5、Studies in animals and in laboratory dishes find out________.A.ample evidence that taking vitamins are helpful for treating lung cancerB.cardiovascular disease spreads very fast in AmericaC.oxidative stress can lead to heart disease and cancerD.people must take vitamins on a regular basis6、What can we conclude from T ask Force’s findings?A.Scientists want to control cardiovascular disease.B.In some regard, taking vitamins is not useful.C.Manufacturers cannot produce medical-use vitamins.D.Vitamins must be useful to prevent cancer and heart disease.7、Who can take vitamins regularly according to the advice of the T ask Force?A.A 60-year-old healthy worker.B.A 15-year-old boy with short-sightedness.C.A 34-year-old pregnant lady.D.A 40-year-old man who never eats vegetables or fruits.8、What’s the best title for the text?A.An Inside Look at VitaminsB.T ask Force: Ending to VitaminsC.Vitamins: T o Live or to KillD.T aking Vitamins to Prevent Cancer May FailPassage3In 2015, researchers from Australia's Deakin University published one of the first studies measuring food’s physical effect on the left hippocampus (海马体),a seahorse-shaped brain region crucial for memory, learning and decision making. It is also one of the first areas to shrink in people with dementia (痴呆). 252 people filled out diet surveys and then underwent scans that measured their brains. Four years later, they returned for another scan.The study found that the left hippocampus was heftier in the healthy eaters than in the unhealthy ones, regardless of age, sex, weight, exercise habits or general health. The average difference was 203 square millimeters, nearly one third of a square inch. Sounds small, but that's room for a lot of extra brain cells. And strong new evidence showed that eating the right food and skipping the wrong stuff could help protect against declines in thinking and memory that lead to dementia.“Plant-based diets may protect against memory decline and dementia,” says lead researcher Claire McEvoy, RD. How is the power food working with your brain cells? Animal and test-tube experiments suggest that vitamins and fatty acids found in the plant food help new cells make copies of DNA when they divide and multiply. Meanwhile, the high-fat and the high-sugarprocessed food harms brain cells by leaving brain tissue damaged by free radicals (自由基).This may hold back brain plasticity, making the processed food an especially big threat for the developing brains of kids.While food emerges as an important brain protector, experts say brain supplements(补充剂) aren’t all that effective. These pills and capsules may contai n many ingredients. But actually, studies show that they do not activate brain cells in a significantly positive way. “Let the buyer be aware of it,” says David Hogan? MD, a specialist at Calgary University.9、What does the underlined word “heftier” in par agraph 2 mean?A. Larger.B. Darker.C. Smaller.D. Cleverer.10、What is paragraph 3 mainly about?A. The health benefits of plants.B. The effects of food on the brain.C. The key components of healthy diet.D. The harm of the processed food to the brain.11、What should buyers be aware of according to David Hogan?A. Food is an important protector of the brain.B. Pills and capsules contain many ingredients.C. Brain supplements don't really benefit the brain.D. Supplements affect the brain in a significant way.12、What can be concluded from the text?A. Eating smart can benefit our brain.B. The animal-based diet damages free radicals.C. The high-fat food is the direct cause of dementia.D. A balanced diet contributes to kids’ learning ability.Passage4What did you eat for lunch today? Did you choose this dish because it was healthy, cheap or because it was just very delicious? Are you a selective eater or an adventurous foodie?I love exploring trends in food. Fusion cuisine is not for everybody. My Italian grandmother would turn her nose up at the thought of pizzas with mangoes topping but this marriage of tastes is perfectly fine in the 21st century. Chef and food writer Ching-He Huang, who presented a series on Chinese Food for the BBC, is a fan of fusion cuisine. She says: Fusion has been happening for centuries, for as long as people have travelled, but with the internet and global travel, the exchange of ideas makes the process much faster.”Wolfgang Puck is seen by many as one of the chefs who made fusion cuisine elegant. He opened his own restaurant in Los Angeles in the 1970s. This European devoted himself to Asian cuisine and became one of the first in a long line of celebrity chefs, because he adjusts the Asian cuisine to wes tern customers’ appetites by mixing different types of flavors. He said in aninterview with the Wall Street Journal that initially he got negative responses from traditional American-Chinese restaurant owners but he is not bitter. “Cooking is like paintin g or writing a song. Just as there are only so many notes or colors, there are only so many flavors—it’s how you combine them that distinguishes you.” he explains.My granny's cup of tea would be the Slow Food Movement. Founded by Carlo Petrini in the 1980s and still going strong, it seeks to preserve traditional cuisine and the use of ingredients that are grown locally. But Petrini thinks fusion cuisine is trendy.All these trends give us food for thought. We might be wasting an exciting opportunity to wake up our taste buds(味蕾) when we scoff (狼吞虎咽) a sandwich at our desks. Tomorrow, why not find an exotic(异国风味) restaurant and enjoy a feast?13、What does the underlined word in the second paragraph mean?A. combinationB. weddingC. relationshipD. divorce14、What has made fusion cuisine more popular?A. People from all over the world like to travel.B. People become well educated and like to try new things.C. Fusion has been happening for centuries.D. The internet and global travel increase the exchange of ideas.15、What can we conclude from the passage?A. My granny likes drinking a cup of tea.B. My granny likes pizzas with mangoes topping.C. The way a chef combines different flavors is what sets him apart.D. Puck is painful because of people's negative response to his restaurant.16、Which of the following best summarized the passage?A. Fusion cuisine is becoming more and more popular. Why not have a try?B. People attach great significance to Slow Food Movement. Why not call for it?C. Chefs are making fusion cuisine elegant. Why not preserve traditional cuisine?D. Fusion cuisine is criticized by many people. Why not avoid it?Passage5Consumers, as the manufacturers know well, are interested in avoiding fat because it causes heart problems and makes them fat.①_____ Fat-free cookies, chips and dairy products are all bestsellers. In fact, not eating fat seems to cause some health issues.②_____ Fruit and vegetables are obviously on the top of the list. Fruit and vegetables are usually low in calories and are packed with vitamins and minerals.Fat makes food taste good. With all the fat removed, some tasty food tends to taste like cardboard. ③_____ After all these additives like sugar, salt and artificial flavors are pumped in, the body is unable to process certain nutrients, and fat-free food can actually end up containing more calories than full-fat products.④_____ Fat helps regulate your nervous system, aids vitamin absorption and improves your immune system. Fat-free salad dressings can actually prevent your ability to process all the good-nutrients in that salad.When buying a fat-free product, you should take a second to examine the nutritional information on the package. If it's loaded with sugar, salt or artificial additives, put it back on the shelf. ⑤_____A. We know now that all fat is not bad.B. So the non-fat food is a dieter's dream!C. There is, of course, plenty of naturally fat-free food.D. Fat-free food actually has too much to recommend it.E. So, the manufacturers have to add in something to restore the flavor.F. When food manufacturers sell fat-free products, they will achieve great success.G. Sometimes, it is better to eat controlled full-fat products than fat-free junk.Even though it was only October, my students were already whispering about Christmas plans.

Upon its 2 everyone would run for their coats and go home, everyone except David.David was a small boy in ragged clothes.

They were fishing early in the evening, catching other fish with worms. Then the boy tied on a small silver lure (鱼饵) and put it into the lake. Suddenly he felt that something very big pulling on the lure. His father watched with admiration as the boy skillfully brought the fish beside the bank. Finally he lifted the tired fish from the water. It was the largest one he had ever seen, but it was a bass(the special fish).The boy and his father looked at the big fish. The father lit a match and looked at his watch. It was 10 pm –two hours before the bass season opened. He looked at the fish, then at the boy. “You’ll have to put it back, son,” he said.“Dad!” cried the boy, “There will be other fish,” said his father. “Not as big as this one,” cried the boy. He looked around the lake.No other fishermen or boats were in sight in the moonlight. He looked again at his father.Even though no one had seen them, nor could anyone ever know what time he had caught the fish, the boy could tell from his father’s voice that the decision couldn’t be changed. He threw the huge bass into the black water. The big fish disappeared. The boy thought that he would never again see such a big fish.That was 34 years ago. Today the boy is a successful architect in New York City. He often takes his own son and daughters to fish at the same place.And he was right. He has never again caught such a large fish as the one he got that night long ago. But he does see that same fish … again and again … every time he has an ethical decision to make. For, as his father had taught him, ethics (伦理道德)are simple matters of right and wrong. It is only the practice of ethics that is difficult.46. What happened when the big fish turned out to be a bass?A. The boy threw the bass back into the water willingly.B. The boy and his father discussed what to do with the big fish.C. The father lit a match in order to check the time.D. They worried other fishermen may discover what they had done.47. From the text we know that the father _____.A. disliked the huge fishB. was firm and stubbornC. didn’t love hisson D. always disagreed with his son48. The successful architect went fishing with his children at the same place because _____.A. they might catch a big fish thereB. he was taught a moral lesson thereC. it was a most popular fishing spotD. their children enjoyed fishing there49. What does the story imply?A. An ethical decision is always easy to make.B. It is easy to say something, but difficult to do.C. It’s hard to tell right from wrong sometimesD. Fishing can help one to make right decisionsBBe 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 asgood 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 dogs. 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!50. 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 children51. 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 them52. 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.53. 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.26-30 BDABC 3 1-35 CADAB 36-40 CBDDC 41-45 AADCB 46-50 CBBB 51-55 CBBC。

company，you would have probably laughed.Most of us did.But there were a handful of smart people who didn't laugh.They went to make their little websites at the right time，and today they don't have a worry in the world.I believe I've found such a business.Folks just like you are making lots of cash with this new technology we call...3D printing.Business Insider says it's “the next tr illion dollar industry.”The Economist compares its history－changing impact to the invention of the steam engine.Trend forecasters are whispering how this invention could create “more millionaires than the internet.”All around the world，3D printing revolution goes on...and this is your chance.You are finally in exactly the right place，at precisely the right time...right where you can knock into the growing trend—3D printing.These 3D printers create actual objects that you can hold in your hand and use in your everyday life.I know it sounds unbelievable，but it actually works.Don't ask me how.I'm not a technology expert，and can't explain it to you.What I do know is that 3D printing makes me more dollars in a week，and sometimes in a single day，than I used to make in a month...and now you can do the same！3D printing is the largest money－making opportunity of the decade，an opportunity that anyone with a computer and the internet can exploit.You can simply design the product you want on your computer or download a finished design，and the 3D printer makes it for you.You can 3D print things like toys，jewelry，spare parts，you name it.Thanks to 3D printers，now you can have a factory right on your desktop!I was born in a communist country in Eastern Europe.Without a college degree and with my thick East European accent.I didn't have much going in my favor.I was dirt poor and couldn't speak

I hate，or work my ass to the bone just to fill someone else's pockets.Instead，I enjoy time with my family.I take luxury vacations and travel the world，dine in nice restaurants without having to check the prices，and live life the way it was meant to be lived.Unfortunately，a growing number of people these days choose to rely on the government or their employers.I will show you how to make money with 3D printing.Even if you're totally new to all of this and you have only a few hours a week to follow my system，you can still have a second income or even a full－time income in a matter of

He also offered me his phone so that I could call my mom to bring me some 53 . I thanked Ryan for his help. And a few days later when I saw him again, I apologized for laughing at him on the bus.

He looked very 4 , but he didn’t cry.That season, I 5 all of Miller’s records. We went 10-1 and I was named most valuable player, 6 I often had crazy dreams in which I was to blame for Miller’s 7 .One afternoon, I saw Miller tried going over a fence —which wasn’t 8 to climb if you had both arms. I’m sure I was the last person in the world he wanted to accept 9 from. But even that challenge he accepted. I helped him move slowly over the fence. When we were finally 10 on the other side, he said to me, “You know, I didn’t tell you this during the season, but you did 11 . Thank you for filling in for me.” His words freed me from my bad 12 . I thought to myself, how even without an arm he was more of a leader. Damaged but not defeated, he was 13 ahead of me. I was right to have 14 him.

Her years of hard work have 18 （final）been acknowledged after a customer nominated(提名) her to be Cheshire’s Woman Of The Year.Picking up her “Lifetime Achievement” award, proud Irene declared she had no plans to retire 19 her 36-year-old business. Irene said，“I don’t see any reason 20 (give) up work. I love coming here and seeing my family and all the friends I 21 (make) over the years.

He planted vegetables, fruit trees and even kept bees for honey.And every week he cleaned Old Man McColgin’s chicken house in exchange for manure(肥料). The Smell really burned the inside of your nose. When we complained about the terrible smell, Dad said the stronger the manure, the healthier the crops,and he was right. For example, just one of his cantaloupes filled the entire house with its sweet smell, and the taste was even sweeter.As the vegetables started coming in, Dad threw himself into cooking. One day, armed with a basket of vegetables, he announced he was going to make stew(炖菜). Dad pulled out a pressure cooker and filled it up with cabbages, eggplants, potatoes, corns, onions and carrots. For about half an hour. the pressure built and the vegetables cooked. Finally, Dad turned off the stove, the pot began to cool and the pressure relief valve sprayed out a cloud of steam. If we thought Dad’s pile of chicken manure was bad, this was 10 times worse. When Dad took off the lid, the smell nearly knocked us out.Dad carried the pot out and we opened doors and windows to air out the house. Just how bad was it? The neighbors came out of their houses to see if we had a gas leak!Determined, Dad filled our plates with steaming stew and passed them around. It didn’t look that bad, and after the fir st wave had shut down my ability to smell,it didn’t offend the nose so much, either. I took a taste. It would never win a prize in a cooking competition, but it was surprisingly edible, and we drank up everylast drop of soup.26. Why did Dad clean Old Ma n Mocolgin’s chicken house regularly?A.

It took three yearsto complete and was built using an interesting method. This included 18 (dig)up the road, laying the track and then building a strong roof over the top. Whenall those had been done, the road surface 19 (replace).Steam engines were used to pull the carriages and it must have been fairly 20 (pleasant) for the passengers, with all the smoke and noise. However, the railway quickly proved to be 21 great success and within six months, more than 25,000 people were using 22 every day.Later, engineers managed to construct railways in a system of deep tunnels (隧道), 23__ became known to the tube. This development was only possible with the 24 (introduce) of electric-powered engines and lifts. The central London Railway was one of the most successful of these new lines, and was opened in 1900. It had white-painted tunnels and bright red carriages, and proved 25 (extreme) popular with the public.When a leafy plant is under attack, it doesn’t sit quietly. Back in 1983, two scientists, Jack Schultz and Ian Baldwin, reported that young maple trees getting bitten by insects send out a particular smell that neighboring plants can get. These chemicals come from the injured parts of the plant and seem to be an alarm. What the plants pump through the air is a mixture of chemicals known as volatile organic compounds, VOCs for short.Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked .It’s a plant’s way of crying out. But is anyone listening? Apparently. Because we can watch the neighbors’ react.Some plants pump out smelly chemicals to keep insects away. But others do double duty. They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the attackers. Once they arrive, the tables are turned. The attacker who was lunching now becomes lunch.In study after study, it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors. The damage is usually more serious on the first plant, but the neighbors, relatively speaking, stay safer because they heard the alarm and knew what to do. Does this mean that plants talk to each other? Scientists don’t know. Maybe the first plant just made a cry of pain or was sending a message to its own branches, and so, in effect, was talking to itself. Perhaps the neighbors just happened to “overhear”the cry. So information was exchanged, but it wasn’t a true, intentional back and forth.Charles Darwin, over 150 years ago, imagined a world far busier, noisier and more intimate(亲密的) than the world we can see and hear. Our senses are weak. There’sa whole lot going on.26. What does a plant do when it is under attack?A. It makes noises.B. It gets help from other plants.C. It stands quietlyD. It sends out certain chemicals.27. What does the author mean by “the tables are turned” in paragraph 3?A. The attackers get attacked.B. The insects gather under the table.C. The plants get ready to fight back.D. The perfumes attract natural enemies.28. Scientists find from their studies that plants can .A. predict natural disastersB. protect themselves against insectsC. talk to one another intentionallyD. help their neighbors when necessary29. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. The world is changing faster than ever.B. People have stronger senses than beforeC. The world is more complex than it seemsD.

I don’t want to have nothing else to fall back on when I can’t model any more.”The Intelligent Transport team at Newcastle University have turned an electric car into a mobile laboratory named “DriveLAB”in order to understand the challengesfaced by older drivers and to discover where the key stress points are.Research shows that giving up driving is one of the key reasons for a fall in health and well-being among older people, leading to them becoming more isolated(隔绝) and inactive.Led by Professor Phil Blythe, the Newcastle team are developing in-vehicle technologies for older drivers which they hope could help them to continue driving into later life.These include custom-made navigation(导航) tools, night vision systems and intelligent speed adaptations. Phil Blythe explains: “For many older people, particularly those living alone or in the country, driving is important for preserving their independence, giving them the freedom to get out and about without having to rely on others.”“But we all have to accept that as we get older our reactions slow down and this often results in people avoiding any potentially challenging driving conditions and losing confidence in their driving skills. The result is that people stop driving before they really need to.”Dr Amy Guo, the leading researcher on the older driver study, explains: “The DriveLAB is helping us to understand what the key points and difficulties are for older drivers and how we might use technology to address these problems.”“For example, most of us would expect older drivers always go slower than everyone else but surprisingly, we found that in 30mph zones they struggled to keep at a constant speed and so were more likely to break the speed limit and be at risk of getting fined. We’re looking at the benefits of systems which control their speed as a way of preventing that.”“We hope th at our work will help with technological solutions(解决方案) to ensure that older drivers stay safer behind the wheel.”1. What is the purpose of the Drive LAB?A. To explore new means of transport.B. To design new types of cars.C. To find out older driver’s problems.D. To teach people traffic rules.2. Why is driving important for older people according to Phil Blythe?A. It keeps them independent.B. It helps them save time.C. It builds up their strength.D. It cures their mental illnesses.3. What do researchers hope to do for older drivers?A. Improve their driving skills.B. Develop driver-assist technologies.C. Provide tips on repairing their cars.D. Organize regular physical checkups.4.

She was really small for her age of 12. The boys in my class often 1 about her and laughed their heads off. She would open a book, 2 to read, with tears dropping on the open page. One day, when I went into the classroom, I saw that Suzy had 3 her geography book to a picture of a train, and in her notebook, she had made a(n) 4 copy. I was surprised and thought that she could do something in the coming 5 show. So, I took her to see the art teacher, Miss Parker, and showed her what Suzy had 6 . “why, it’s wonderful,” said Miss Parker, who then showed us a poster she had painted for the talent show. “I need more of these. Could you help me, Suzy?On t he day of the talent show, Suzy’s 7 were everywhere — all over the hall and all over the school, each one different.“And finally,” said Mr. Brown, the school -master, at the end of the show, “we have a (n) 8 award. I’m sure you’ve all noticed the wonderful posters.” Everyone nodded. “One of our own students 9 them.”I could hear everyone whispering. “Who in our school could draw 10 well?”Mr. Brown waited a while before saying, “ 11 this student worked so hard on the posters, she deserves a 12 , too. Our mystery(神秘) artist is our new student —Suzy Khan!”Mr. Brown thanked her for all the wonderful posters and gave her a professional artist’s set (装置). “Thank you,” she cried.I 13 , at that time when I was looking at her excited fac e, she’d probably never14 anything in her whole life.Everyone started to 15 their hands. Suzy Khan gave them a shy smile and the applause was deafening. I knew then Suzy was going to be all right. ”1. A. joked B. cared C. trains D.worried2.

I left it early because I had an 16 (appoint) later that day. My friends walked me to the bus stop and waited with me until the bus arrived. I got on the bus and found a seat near the back, and then I noticed a man 17 (sit) at the front. He was pretending that a tiger toy was real and giving it a voice. He must be 18___ (mental) disabled.Behind him were other people 19 he was trying to talk to, but after some minutes he walked away and sat near me, looking annoyed.I didn’t want to 20 (laugh) at for talking to him 21 I didn’t like leaving him on his own either. After a while I rose from my seat and walked to 22 front of the bus. I sat next 23 the man and introduced myself. We had an 24 (amaze) conversation. He got off the bus before me and I 25 (feel) very happy the rest of the way home. I’m glad I made a choice. It made both of us feel good.Although being famous might sound like a dream come true, today’s stars, feeling like zoo animals, face pressures that few of us can imagine. They are at the center of much of the world’s attention. Paparazzi(狗仔队) camp outside their homes, cameras ready. Tabloids(小报) publish thrilling stories about their personal lives. Just imagine not being able to do anything without being photographed or interrupted for a signature!According to psychologist Christina Villarreal, celebrities —famous people —worry constantly about their public appearance. Eventually, they start to lose track of who they really are, seeing themselves the way their fans imagine them, not as the people they were before everyone knew their names. “Over time,” Villarreal says, “they feel separated and alone.”The phenomenon of tracking celebrities has been around for ages. In the 4th century B.C., painters followed Alexander the Great into battle, hoping to picture his victories for his admirers. When Charles Dickens visited America in the 19thcentury, his sold-out readings attracted thousands of fans, leading him to complain(抱怨)about his lack of privacy. Tabloids of the 1920s and 1930s ran articles about film-stars in much the same way that modern tabloids and websites do.Being a public figure today, however, is a lot more difficult than it used to be. Superstars cannot move about without worrying about photographers with modern cameras. When they say something silly or do something ridiculous, there is always the Internet to spread the news in minutes and keep their “story” alive forever.If fame is so troublesome, why aren’t all celebrities runnin g away from it? The answer is there are still ways to deal with it. Some stars stay calm by surrounding themselves with trusted friends and family or by escaping to remote places away from big cities. They focus not on how famous they are but on what they love to do or whatever made them famous in the first place.Sometimes a few celebrities can get a little justice. Still, even stars who enjoy full justice often complain about how hard their lives are. They are tired of being famous already.26. It can be learned from the passage that stars today .A. are often misunderstood by the publicB. can no longer have their privacy protectedC. spend too much on their public appearanceD. care little about how they have come into fame27.

This trend, 16 was started by the medical community with a methodof fighting heart disease, has had some unintended side 17 such as overweightand heart disease — the very thing the medical community was trying to fight.Fat and salt are very important parts of a diet. They are required 18 (process) the food that we eat, to recover 19 injury and for several otherbodily functions. When fat and salt 20 (remove) from food, the food tastes as if it is missing something. As a result, people will eat more food to try to make up for that something missing. Even 21 (bad), the amount of fast food that people eat 22 (go) up. Fast food is full of fat and salt; by eating more fast food people will get more salt and fat than they need in their diet.23 (have) enough fat and salt in your meals will reduce the urge to snack(吃点心) between meals and will improve 24 taste of your food. However, be careful not to go to extremes. Like anything, it is possible to have too much of both, which is not good for the 25 (healthy).Their cheery song brightens many a winter’s day. But robins are in danger ofwearing themselves out by singing too much. Robins(知更鸟) are singing all night—as well as during the day, British-based researchers say.David Dominoni, of Glasgow University, said that light from street lamps, takeaway signs and homes is affecting the birds’ biological clock, leading to them being wide awake when they should be asleep.Dr. Dominoni, who is putting cameras inside nesting boxes to track sleeping patterns, said lack of sleep could put the birds’ health at risk. His study shows that when robins are exposed to light at night in the lab, it leads to some genes being active at the wrong time of day. And the more birds are exposed to light, the more active they are at night.He told people at a conference, “There have been a couple of studies suggesting they are increasing their song output at night and during the day they are still singing. Singing is a costly behaviour and it takes energy. So by increasing their song output, there might be some costs of energy.”And it is not just robins that are being kept awake by artificial light. Blackbirds and seagulls are also being more nocturnal. Dr Dominoni said, “In Glasgow where I live, gulls are a serious problem. I have people coming to me saying “You are the bird expert. Can you help us kill these gulls? During the breeding(繁殖) season, between April and June, they are very active at night and very noisy and people can’t sleep.”Although Dr Dominoni has only studied light pollution, other research concluded that robins living in noisy cities have started to sing at night to make themselves heard over loud noise.26. According to Dr Dominoni’s study, what cause robins to sing so much?A. The breeding season.B. The light in modernC. The dangerous environment.D. The noise from heavy machinery.。

手惰市安逸阳光实验学校2014高考英语阅读理解、完形填空二轮精品训练（43）含答案AIf Confucius（孔子）were still alive today and could celebrate his September 28 birthday with a big cake, there would be a lot of candles. He’d need a fan or a strong wind to help him put them out.While many people in China will remember Confucius on his special day, few people in the United States will give him a passing thought. It’s nothing personal. Most Americans don’t even remember the birthdays of their own national heroes.But this doesn’t mean that Americans don’t care about Confucius. In many ways he has become a bridge that foreigners must cross if they want to reach a deeper understanding of China.In the past two decades, the Chinese studies programs have gained huge popularity in Western universities. More recently, the Chinese government has set up Confucius Institutes in more than 80 countries. These schools teach both Chinese language and culture. The main courses of Chinese culture usually included Chinese art, history and philosophy(哲学). Some social scientists suggest that Westerners should take advantages of the ancient Chinese wisdom to make up for the drawbacks of Westerners philosophy. Students in the United States, at the same time, are racing to learn Chinese.So they will be ready for life in a world where China is an equal power with the United States. Businessmen who hope to make money in China are reading books about Confucius to understand their Chinese customers.So the old thinker’s ideas are still alive and well.Today China attracts the West more than ever, and it will need more teachers to introduce Confucius and Chinese culture to the West.As for the old thinker, he will not soon be forgotten by people in the West, even if his birthday is.56. The passage is likely to appear in ________.A. a biographyB. a history paperC. a newspaperD. a philosophy textbook57. The opening paragraph is mainly intended to________.A. provide some key facts about ConfuciusB. attract the readers’ interest in the subjectC. show great respect for the ancient thinkerD. prove the popularity of modern birthday celebrations58. We can learn from Paragraph 4 that American students________.A. have a great interest in studying ChineseB. take an active part in Chinese competitionsC. try to get high scores in Chinese examsD. fight for a chance to learn Chinese59. What is the best title for the passage?A. Forgotten Wisdom in AmericaB. Huge Fans of the Chinese LanguageC. Chinese Culture for WesternersD. Old Thinker with a Big Future参考答案 56---59、CBAD***************************************************结束For those who are tired of doing the laundry, Samsung has found an answer: a washing machine that can tell you when your laundry is done via a smart-phone app(application).Strange though it may seem —“my wife already does that” was a common response among attendees viewing the device when it was introduced at the Consumer Electronics Show CES this week — Samsung is just one of many appliance makers racing to install(安装)a large number of internet-connected features in machines in an effort to make them “smart”.Last year, it was a refrigerator that tweeted. This year, it’s Wi-Fi-enabled laundry machines and fridges that can tell you when your groceries are going bad.The washers and dryers, available starting in the spring, connect to any smart-phone through a downloadable application. The phone can then be used as a remote control, so the machines can be turned on and off while their owners is at work or on the bus.Samsung says it’s not just somethin g new — the app connection actually has some practical uses.“If you started to dry clothes in the morning and forgot to take them out, you can go to your phone and restart your dryer for the time when you come home, so your clothes are refreshed and read y to go,” said spokesperson Amy Schmidt.The company also says that with electricity rate(电)varying depending on the time of day, more control over when the machines are used can help save money.Perhaps, but what they will probably really accomplish is what all good technologies do —enable laziness. Rather than getting up to check on whether the laundry is done, users will instead monitor it on their phones while watching TV.60. What can be inferred from the common response of the attendees atthe CES?A. The machine will be a big success.B. their wives likedoing the laundry.C. The machine is unrelated to their life.D. This kind of technology is familiar to them.61. We can conclude fro m Samsung’s statements that ___________.A. the app connection makes life easierB. it is better todry clothes in the morningC. smart-phone can shorten the drying timeD. we should refresh clothes back at home62. What can we learn about the new laundry machines? A. They can tell you when your clothes need washing. B. They can be controlled with a smart-phone. C. They are difficult to operate. D. They are sold at a low price.63. What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A. The laundry should be frequently checked. B. Lazy people like using such machines. C. Good technologies also cause problems.D. Television may help do the laundry. 参考答案 60、C A B C 完形填空Having left the town, the girl stopped the car at the landing near the entrance of the bay (海湾).
