AMy college experience included this life-skill lesson: Drink alcohol on a full stomach. Or you will get inebriated too quickly. Of course, most college students shouldn’t be drinking at all, but we know from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism that close to 60 percent of college students aged 18 to 22 do consume alcohol, which makes harm-reducing approaches important.Unfortunately, campus authorities and researchers are reporting a practice that turns the full-stomach drinking strategy on its head: rather than filling up before a night of partying, significant numbers of students refuse to eat all day before consuming alcohol.This is a high-risk behavior called “drunkorexia,” which is one part eating disorder, one part alcoholism—a very dangerous combination for college-age students. The term drunkorexia, which can also include excessive exercise or purging before consuming alcohol, was coined about 10 years ago, and it started showing up in medical research around 2012. Drunkorexia addresses the need to be the life of the party while staying extremely thin, pointing to a flawed mind-set about body image and alcoholism among college students, mostly women.Imagine this scenario: A femal e college freshman doesn’t eat anything all day, exercises on an empty stomach, then downs five shots of tequila in less than two hours. Because there’s no food in her system to help slow the absorption of alcohol, those shots affect her rapidly, leading to inebriation and possibly passing out, vomiting or suffering alcohol poisoning. That’s drunkorexia.Tavis Glassman, professor of health education and public health at the University of Toledo in Ohio, researches drunkorexia and worries about scenarios suc h as the one described above: “With nothing in her system, alcohol hits quickly, and that brings up the same issues as with any high-risk drinking: getting home safely, sexual assault, unintentional injury, fights, hangovers that affect class attendance and grades, and possibly ending up in emergency because the alcohol hits so hard,” he says.“Alcohol can negatively affect the liver or gastrointestinal system, it can interfere with sleep, lower the immune system and is linked to several types of cancers,” Hultin says.1. What does the underlined word “inebriated” in paragraph 1 mean?A. excitedB. overwhelmedC. addictedD. drunk2. We can infer from the passage that ____________.A. a large number of college students spend most of their nights partyingB. some college students refuse to eat before drinking alcohol to keep slimC. There is a direct link between body image and consuming alcoholD. female college student is more likely to be hurt if she drinks alcohol3. Which of the following may Tavis Glassman agree with?A. With more food in one’s system, he may suffer from the effects of alcohol slowly.B. Drinking five shots of tequila in less than two hours is the performance of drunkorexia.C. Those who don’t attend classes and have lower grades tend to be addicted to alcohol.D. Alcohol has negative effects on the immune system and may lead to several cancers.BThe first men and women came to Britain over two and a half million years ago. They were hunters and gatherers of food who used stone tools and weapons. But the British Isles only became islands separate from the rest of Europe about 8,500 years ago, when melting ice formed the English Channel!3,000 years after Britain became an island, new tribes who came by boat from the mainland introduced farming. These tribes built earthworks for protection and as tombs for their dead.Many of these man-made hills can still be seen.Later on, people learned to build stone monuments. The most amazing is Stonehenge, a circle of huge stones begun about 4,500 ye ars ago. Stonehenge is the world’s most famous prehistoric monument. We don’t know what it meant or what it was used for, though many different suggestions have been made.3,000 years ago the climate in Britain became colder and wetter than before, and people had to move down from high ground. A bit later iron started to be sued for tools and weapons instead of bronze.Knowledge of ironworking may have been brought by the Celts, a new wave of immigrants who started to arrive from southern Europe in about 500 BC.What we know about the first people in Britain has been worked out by archaeologists from the remains they left behind them. Pytheas, a Greek, was the first person who could read and write to come to Britain. His visit was in about 330 BC, over 2000 years after Stonehenge was begun. Unfortunately, what Pytheas wrote has been lost, so we don’t have any written record of Britain until the Romans came, almost 300 years after he did!4.This passage mainly tells us _______ .A.The dawn of history in BritainB.How English Channel was formedC.How the British made a living millions of years agoD.When humans appeared on the British Isles5.In this passage “the man-made hill” probably refers to ___________ .A.The small islands in BritainB.Earthworks for protection and as tombsC.The amazing StonehengeD.The farms opened up by the first man6.Why did people move to low ground 3,000 years ago?A.Because iron tools were used for farmingB.Because the climate made it unfit for man to live thereC.Because more people arrived from southern EuropeD.Because the Celts forced them to do so7.Only after ________ do people have written records about Britain.A.the arrival of the CeltsB.Stonehenge was begunC.Pytheas’s visitD.the Romans cameCDuring Amsterdam’s chaotic rush hour, nine -year-old Lotta Crok cycles to a very busy junction. “Look,” she says. “There’s traffic coming from everywhere. Four trams from four differ ent directions. For a child on a bike that’s really confusing!”Lotta is the first junior cycle mayor in the world and her working area is the Dutch capital. You would think this challenge would be superfluous in a city known as the bicycle capital of the world. The number of bicycles in Amsterdam is estimated at 81,000 - more than the city’s 850,000 inhabitants - and 63% of the population cycle daily.But children who cycle in Amsterdam face challenges, Lotta says: “The three biggest problems for us are ca rs, cycling tourists and scooters (小型摩托). The cars take up too much space, the tourists are always swinging side to side and stop when you least expect it, and the scooters simply run you over.”Lotta became junior cycle mayor in June last year when shewon a contest in which school children were asked to come up with plans to make cycling safer and more fun. Her idea was to add children’s bikes to the popular bike share programme.Since Lotta was appointed junior cycle mayor, she has been busy, giving interviews, opening cycling contests in the city and being a jury (评审员) member during the Amsterdam Light Parade, an event in which Amsterdammers decorate their bikes with lights.She is now planning a meeting with the city’s mayor to discuss ideas that childr en have come up with: “One of our proposals is a bicycle park w here children can learn how to cycle. Right now, most of us learn a it in the street, which can be quite busy. Another idea is to create an app for tourists to teach them the rules of cycling, because most of them really don’t know.”Following the success of the Amsterdam scheme, cycle mayors around the world are now planning to appoint junior colleagues. “They see it works really well,” Boerma, the senior major, says. “I talk to the parents, L otta talks to the children. And if you look at the city through the eyes of a child, you will also make it accessible for others. A city that’s good for an eight-year-old is also good for an 88-year-old.”8. Why is a junior cycle mayor appointed in Amsterdam?A. To teach children how to ride.B. To ensure cycling is safer for children.C. To give suggestions to the city’s mayor on how to run the city.D. To organize the cycling contests in the city.9. Which word can best replace the underlined word “superfluous” in paragraph 2?A. ImportantB. UnnecessaryC. DifficultD. Valuable10. What has Lotta done since she became the bike mayor? .A. She has solved the three biggest problems for children cycling in Amsterdam.B. She has won a contest about cycling.C. She has given interviews and been a jury member during a parade.D. She has given proposals to the city mayor.11. What’s Boerma’s attitude to the junior cycle mayor?A. CautiousB. FavorableC. AmbiguousD. DisapprovingDGive yourself a test. Which way is the wind blowing? How many kinds of wildflowers can be seen from your front door? If your awareness is as sharp as it could be, you’ll have no trouble answering these questions.Most of us observed much more as children than we do as adults. A c hild’s day is filled with fascination, newness and wonder. Curiosity gave us all a natural awareness. But distinctions that were sharp to us as children become unclear; we are numb(麻木的)to new stimulation(刺激), new ideas. Relearning the art of seeing the world around us is quite simple, although it takes practice and requires breaking some bad habits.The first step in awakening senses is to stop predicting what we are going to see and feel before it occurs. This blocks awareness. One chilly night when I was hiking in the RockyMountains with some students, I mentioned that we were going to cross a mountain stream. The students began complaining about how cold it would be. We reached the stream, and they unwillingly walked ahead. They were almost knee-deep when they realized it was a hot spring. Later they all admitted they'd felt cold water at first.Another block to awareness is the obsession(痴迷) many of us have with naming things. I saw bird watchers who spotted a bird, immediately looked it up in field guid es, and said, a “ruby-crowned kinglet” and checked it off. They no longer paid attention to the bird and never learned what it was doing.The pressures of “time” and “destination” are further blocks to awareness. I encountered many hikers who were headed to a distant camp-ground with just enough time to get there before dark. It seldom occurred to them to wander a bit, to take a moment to s ee what’s around them. I asked them what they’d seen. “Oh, a few birds, ” they said. They seemed bent on their destinations.Nature seems to unfold to people who watch and wait. Next time you take a walk, no matter where it is, take in all the sights, sounds and sensations. Wander in this frame of mind and you will open a new dimension to your life.12. According to Paragraph 2, compared with adults, children are more ________.A. anxious to do wonders.B. sensitive to others’ feelings.C. likely to develop unpleasant habits.D. eager to explore the world around them.13. What idea does the author convey in Paragraph 3?A. To avoid jumping to conclusions.B. To stop complaining all the time.C. To follow the teacher’s advice.D. To admit mistakes honestly.14. The bird watchers’ behavior shows that they _______.A. are very patient in their observation.B. are really fascinated by nature.C. care only about the names of birds.D. question the accuracy of the field guides.15. In the passage, the author intends to tell us we should ______.A. fill our senses to feel the wonders of the world.B. get rid of some bad habits in our daily life.C. open our mind to new things and ideas.D. try our best to protect nature.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)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。

Though it is still too early to know what will happen to the businesses that won the competition (Visa has not announced the winners yet), the key arguments in favor of cash­abandonment are that it would lead to more efficient service and carry a lower risk of theft. A recent Ne w York Times article covered restaurants in Manhattan that take plastic only, and supporters are looking forward to an entirely cashless society.Doing away with cash may indeed sound appealing. Supporters often note that China and India have already gone further in this direction than the United States. But a few drawbacks are obvious: Card companies such as Visa charge merchants high processing fees, the risk of fraud(诈骗) balances out the lower risk of theft, older consumers may not wish to make the change, and consumers will lose yet more privacy (large companies will have the ability to track every purchase made). Perhaps the less obvious one is that a cashless system will exclude the poor and the near-poor, for many poor people don’t have credit cards or bank accounts.Conditions in the U.S. are nowhere near suitable for entering a cashless society; too many people would be left behind. Your young friend may be happy to accept money via PayPal or another app, your cafe may use an iPad instead of a cash register, but landlords in low­income areas still prefer money orders. It’s convenient for consumers to charge, say, an outing to the nail salon—but when you add the tip to your credit card bill, it may never make it to the worker.1.Why did Visa hold the competition?A.To support small businesses.B.To attract more users.C.To promote cash­abandonment.D.To reward successful businesses.2.Which is the disadvantage of a cashless society according to the author?A.The risk of fraud is lower than that of theft.B.Consumers’privacy has more potential risks.C.More plastic is used and causes resource waste.D.The poor and the near-poor are unwilling to use cash.3.Who would probably prefer to be paid in cash?A.A landlord in a developed area.B.A cafe owner.C.A young person.D.A worker in a nail salon.第三组Ⅰ.单项填空1.B解析:考查动词的时态。

题型组合练(二)(对应学生用书第171页)Ⅰ.阅读理解A(社会生活)If you are interested in the news,it means you care about what is happening in your community and the world.But sometimes news can be upsetting.If you find out about sad news and it makes you feel worried or upset,what should you do? Dr.Harold Koplewicz,President of the Child Mind Institute,has some suggestions.Sometimes,the news you watch on TV is not completely accurate.The news on TV is fast-paced.When bad news affects our nation,all of us need time to understand and process it.Your parents and your teachers can be your first sources to get information.Even someone who is as strong and powerful as President Barack Obama weeps when he's very sad.It's part of being a human that sad events make us feel sad.That doesn't mean that we need to fall_apart.It means that we just have to admit that we're sad and move forward.People respond in different ways when facing sad news.There are certain kids who are very private and don't want anyone to see how they feel.But if you feel worried,talk to your parents and teachers,which can help you feel more comfortable.If you still feel very nervous,another way to feel better is to take part in activities that are helpful to others.Go with your parents to the children's welfare institutions,or think of ways that you or your class can help others.On the other hand,remember to go to sleep at the right time,play with your friends or go to the movies.It is okay to feel sad,but it's not good to stop doing the things you usually do.【语篇解读】新闻对孩子会产生影响。

第十二组(建议用时:20分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解When Stephen Dennis, a retired homebuilder in Bellevue, was raising his two sons in the 1980s, he never heard the phrase “screen time”,nor did he worry much about the hours his kids spent on technology. When he bought an Apple Ⅱ Plus computer, he considered it an investment in their future and encouraged them to use it as much as possible.But things have changed with his grandkids and their social media tools.“It almost seems like an addiction,” said Mr. Dennis. “In the old days you had a computer and you had a TV and you had a phone but none of them were linked to the outside world but the phone. You didn’t have this omnipresence(无所不在) of technology.”True, the anxieties these days seem particularly severe—as, of course, they always have. Smartphones have a highly customized, 24/7 presence in our lives that feeds parental fears of antisocial behavior and stranger danger.What hasn’t changed, though, is a general parental fear of what kids are doing out of sight. In previous generations, this often meant kids wandering around on their own or slipping out at night to drink. These days, it might mean hiding in their bedroom and chatting with strangers online.Less than a century ago, the radio set off similar fears. “The radio seems to find parents more helpless than did the funnies, the automobile, the movies and other earlier invaders of the home, because it could not be locked out or the children be locked in,”Sidonie Matsner Gruenberg, director of the Child Study Association of America, told The Washington Post in 1931. She added that the biggest worry radio gave parents was how it interfered with other interests—conversation, music practice, group games, and reading. In the early 1930s a group of mothers from Scarsdale, N.Y., pushed radio broadcasters to change programs they thought were too “overstimulating, frightening, and emotionally overpowering” for kids, said Margaret Cassidy, a media historian at Adelphi University in New York.Then television burst into the public consciousness with incomparable speed. By 1955, more than half of all US homes had a black­and­white set, according to Mitchell Stephens, a media historian at New York University.The_hand­wringing_started_almost_as_quickly. A 1961 Stanford University study on 6,000 children, 2,000 parents, and 100 teachers found that more than half of the kids studied watched “adult” programs such as crime shows, and shows that featured “emotional problems”. Researchers were shocked at the TV violence present even in children’s programming.By the end of that decade, Congress had authorized $1 million (about $7 million today) to study the effects of TV violence, moving “literally thousands of projects” in the following years, Professor Cassidy said. That eventually led the American Academy of Pediatrics(AAP) to adopt,in 1984, its first recommendation that parents limit their kids’ exposure to technology. The medical association argued that television sent unrealistic messages around drugs and alcohol, could lead to overweight, and might fuel violence.Video games presented a different challenge. Decades of study have failed to confirm the most widespread fear that violent games encourage violent behavior. But from the moment the games appeared as a cultural force in the early 1980s, parents were anxious about the way kids could lose themselves in games as simple and repetitive as “Space Invaders”. Some cities sought to restrict the spread of arcades(游戏厅); Mesquite, Texas, for instance, insisted that the under­17 group need parental monitoring.Initially, the Internet—known as an “information superhighway” that could connect kids to the world’s knowledge—got a similar pass for helping with homework and research.

Is it possible to display and cultivate character if you are just an information age office clerk, alone with a memo or your computer? Of course it is.Even if you are alone in your office, you are thinking.Thinking well under an era of information may be a different sort of moral challenge than fighting well under a hail of bullets, but it’s a character challenge nonetheless.In their book, Intellectual Virtues, RobertC.Roberts of Baylor University and W.Jay Wood of Wheaton College list some of the Intellectual virtues.We can all grade ourselves on how good we are at each of them.First, there is courage.The obvious form of intellectual courage is the willingness to hold unpopular views.But the slighter form is knowing how much risk to take in jumping to conclusions.The impulsive thinker takes a few pieces of information and leaps to some faraway theory.The perfectionist, on the other hand, is unwilling to put anything out there except under ideal conditions for fear that he could be wrong.Intellectual courage is self­regulation, Roberts and Wood argue, knowing when to be daring and when to be cautious.The philosopher Thomas Kuhn pointed out that scientists often simply ignore facts that don’t fit with their existing paradigms(范式), but an intellectually courageous person is willing to look at things that are surprisingly hard to look at.Second, there is firmness.You don’t want to be a person who abandons his beliefs at the slightest sign of opposition.On the other hand, you don’t want to hold rigidly to a belief against all evidence.The median point between flaccidity(软弱) and rigidity is the virtue of firmness.The firm believer can build a steady worldview on solid materials but still delight in new information.He can gracefully adjust the strength of his belief to the strength of the evidence.Firmness is a quality of mental alertness.Third, there is modesty, which is not letting your own desire for status get in the way of accuracy.The modest person fights against pride and self­importance.He’s not writing those sentences people write to make themselves seem smart; he’s not thinking of himself much at all.The modest researcher doesn’t become arrogant toward his subject, assuming he has mastered it.Such aperson is delighted to learn from anyone at any stage in life.Fourth, there is autonomy.You don’t want to be a person who blindly adopts whatever opinion your teacher or some author gives you.On the other hand, you don’t want to reject all guidance from people who know what they are talking about.Autonomy is the median of knowing when to bow to authority and when not to, when to follow a role model and when not to, when to stick to tradition and when not to.Finally, there is generosity.This virtue starts with the willingness to share knowledge and give others credit.But it also means hearing others as they would like to be heard, looking for what each person has to teach and not looking to jump on others for their errors.Montaigne once wrote that “We can be knowledgeable with other men’s knowledge, but we can’t be wise with other men’s wisdom.”That’s because wisdom isn’t a body of information.It’s the moral quality of knowing how to handle your own limitations.Character tests are existing everywhere even in modern everyday life.It’s possible to be heroic if you’re just sitting alone in your office.It just doesn’t make for a good movie.Intellectual VirtuesPassage Outline Supporting Details1.____________ you are not a hero at war and live in peace, youstill have chances to display intellectual virtues.Intellectual virtues 2.____________ by the experts·A person with intellectual courage is willing to stick to theviews not well 3.____________. ·You should 4.____________ flaccidity and rigidity to possessthe virtue of firmness.·In addition to the established steady worldview, you should be5.____________ to new ideas and adjust your belief flexibly.Introduction·Rather than being proud and self­important,modest people are6.____________ on learning from others whenever possible.·Autonomy means you have the ability to make your owndecisions about what to do instead of being 7.____________ bysomeone else or told what to do.·A generous person tends to share knowledge and applaudothers in 8.____________ of their achievements.·You should be a good listener and learner instead of finding9.____________ with others.Summary Only when we know how to 10.____________ with ourlimitations can we be wise.第十二组Ⅰ.阅读理解【解题导语】 本文是一篇议论文。

In addition, the single adults with dogs were 36 percent less likely to die from heart disease.“Dog ownership was especially prominent as a protective factor in people living alone, who are a group reported previously to be at higher risk of heart disease and death than those living in a multi person household,”Mwenya Mubanga, a Ph.D. student at Uppsala University in Uppsala, Sweden, and the lead junior author of the study, said in a statement announcing its findings. The link between dog ownership and lower mortality(死亡率) was less pronounced in adults who lived either with family members or partners, but still present, according to the study.“Perhaps a dog may standin as an important family member in the single household,”Mubanga added.“Another interesting finding was that owners of dogs which were intended originally for hunting were most protected.”The study, which is the largest to date on the health relations of owning a dog, suggested that one of the reasons why dog owners may have a lower risk of mortality and heart disease was that dog owners walked more.“These kinds of epidemiological(流行病学的) studies look for associations in large populations but do not provide answers to whether and how dogs could protect their owners from heart disease,”Tove Fall, a senior author of the study and a professor at Uppsala University, said in a statement.“We know that dog owners in general have a higher level of physical activity, which could be one explanation for the observed results,”Fall added.“Other explanations include increased well being and social contacts or effects of the dog on the bacterial microbiome(微生物菌群) in the owner.”Fall added that because all participants of the study were Swedish, the results most closely apply to dog owners in Sweden or other“European populations with similar culture regarding dog ownership”.1.Why did the researchers do the study related to 3.4 million people’s health and the dogs?A.To help Europeans.B.To find their association.C.To protect unhealthy adults.D.To reduce the risk of heart disease.2.What does the underlined word “prominent” probably mean in Para.3?A.Universal.

In 2012, he and hisfamily were inspired to build and donate a bunk bed, one bed on top of the other, after learning there werelocal children who slept on the floor. Shocked to discover how widespread this need was in his community,Mickelson founded Sleep in Heavenly Peace, a nonprofit that builds and delivers beds to children in need.Born and raised in Idaho, Mickelson, now 41, had a thriving career. He coached his kids’and fished in the nearby river. But when he met children who were sleeping on the floor, his peaceful lifechanged course.Using safety guidelines and his daughter’s bunk bed as a model, Mickelson started buying wood and supplies to build beds with his own money. He recruited friends and family members to help around theholiday. As word spread, interest and involvement from his and other communities flooded—along withThe nextMickelson’s bunk bed output. “That first project, we built 11 bunk beds in my garage,” he sa year, we did 15. Then it doubled every year. In 2017, we built 612 bunk beds.”With the motto “No kid sleeps on the floor in our town”, the nonprofit and its more than 65 branches have built and delivered more than 1,500 free beds to children across America. But along with the rapidgrowth, Mickelson was faced with a tough choice: advancing his career or his nonprofit. He chose the latterand went from making “great money to zero money”.

They volunteered to buy beds with their own money.to the nonprofit?7. What is Mickelson’s attitudeA. AmbiguousB. Defensive.C. Cautious.D. Positive.CLearning how to face silence in conversation is an important skill especially when working acrosscultures.In international negotiations, experienced negotiator (谈判者) stay silent and impassive on purposebecause that will make others feel uncomfortable and possibly make compromises without having to doanything. Americans especially can’t stand silence, so they often are the first to break the silence and sometimes might be at a disadvantage in negotiations.So what’s the best response? Set your jaw and wait it out. Don’t offer a compromise just becauseare not speaking. If you have to say something, ask a direct question, such as “What’s your in to that offer?” Once a silence is getting into 45 seconds you could say, “Let’s come back to t and go on with the next part of our negotiation.”In presentations, silence can be far more effective than dramatic passion (热情). Before starting, lookat the audience and be silent for a moment because that says, “I’m in control. I know what I’m confident.”A classic example was when Apple co-founder Steve Jobs launched the first iPhone. He introduceds. Because silence makes us nervous, our naturalwith many pauses so that you didn’t miss his key pointreaction is that we’d better pay attention, there’s something going on here.Equally, when giving a speech to staff or trainees, pauses count-especially if there are negatives. If youspoon feeding. Give people a moment of silence to get beyond the emotional responsekeep talking you’reand to start thinking consciously and processing.Silence can be an inward-focused thoughtful activity or an outward stillness where you give yourselfthe time to watch and think and listen to the world around you. Having observed the use of silence inFinland and also among the Blackfeet Nation, a North American Indian tribe in northern Montana in the US,we can see benefits far beyond wheeling and dealing.Silence can be a very powerful point for understanding ourselves, understanding others, fordeveloping better common understanding and more productive outcomes and that applies to business,politics, education, law, medicine, every area of human life.8. What is most likely to be Americans idea?A. Speaking less gives the upper handB. The shorter talking gaps are, the better.C. A silent man is the best one to listen toD. Speak out what you have in your mind.9. What is the purpose of the example of Steve Jobs?A. To show the wisdom of Steve Jobs.B. To explain silence can be more effective.C. To introduce how to make a presentation.D. To prove silence can ease one’s nervousness.10. What is the meaning of the underlined words “spoon feeding” in Paragraph 6?A. Supporting some person with any selfless help.B. Feeding somebody patiently with a small spoon.C. Giving others some new ideas to think over carefully.D. Using a way that discourages independent thought.11. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Silence is the best defense.B. Silence in negotiations is of great help.C. Learning the skills about silence is important.D. Silence has different meanings in difficult culture.DBritish people work some of the longest hours in Europe, but are among the least productive. Nowsome companies are shortening the working week to increase efficiency, health and happiness.Rich Leigh has introduced a four-day week at his PR company. In fact, his entire company has Fridayoff, because his firm has adopted a four-day week. It is one of a handful of UK businesses that now operatelike this: staff still get paid their previous five-day salary, but they work a day less. The company found thatthey achieved just as much—and there were even sighs of growth. “The key to the scheme’s success, Leigh says, “is how happy our employees now are.”The average British worker takes only a 34 minute lunch break and works 10 hours overtime eachweek (more often than not this is unpaid). Yet UK productivity falls seriously behind their Europeanneighbors, who tend to work fewer hours.British working practices have caused loss and damage to the nation’s health and happiness. Mo than half a million workers in the UK were signed off with work-related stress or anxiety last year.Moreover, the work landscape itself is changing. Automation and AI will have a significant impact on thelabor market, where unsteady work becomes more common.Britain is the only EU member that allows workers to ignore the EU working time limit and worklonger ho urs. For campaigners, now is the time for a change. O’Grady, an advocate, argues that where businesses have increased their profits as a result of automation, success should be shared with workers inits from new technology, not allowing those at thethe form of reduced hours. “It’s time to share the beneftop to grab them for themselves.” she says.12. We can learn from the passage that ________.A. British people are the least productive in the worldB. Most companies in Britain have conducted a four-day weekC. PR company has witnessed a rise in employees’ happinessD. British people work longer and get more payment than other countries13. Which is the proper description of British working practices?A. The working time of British workers is within the EU limit.B. In terms of productivity, Britain is beaten by the United States.C. Profits gained from new technology are on the decrease.D. Automation and AI are likely to cause an instable work market.14. Which can be inferred from O’Grady’ s words in thelast paragraph?A. It’s time for employers to share the increased profits created by automation.B. Workers should benefit from automation in the form of less working hours.C. New technology should belong to both businesses and workers.D. Businesses can’t make more profits without new technology.15. What is the author’s purpose of writing the passage?-day working week.A. To introduce some British firms’ switch to a fourB. To explain the reasons why British workers suffer stress and anxiety.C. To appeal for more reasonable working conditions.D.

2020江苏高考英语二轮练习:题型重组练 第20组

第二十组(建议用时:20分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解Thomas had achieved fame as a poet in the 1930s and had spent World War Two in London writing propaganda(宣传) films.But by 1946, after the end of the war, he needed a regular income to support his wife Caitlin, and children Llewelyn and Aeronwy.Luckily he had a new admirer in the form of Margaret Taylor, wife of noted historian and broadcaster A.J.P. Taylor.Introduced as an “entertaining guest” by a mutual friend, he had succeeded in charming Mrs Taylor, who put the family up in a summerhouse in their garden in the grounds of Magdalen College(牛津大学莫德林学院).①Thomas had a love­hate relationship with Oxford, according to his biographer Andrew Lycett.His poetry may have brought him respect and celebrity in literary circles, but in Oxford he felt at odds with his surroundings.“His father, who had been a schoolmaster in Swansea, would have liked him to go to Oxford University,” Mr Lycett explains. “When he did actually get to Oxford he wasn’t actually at the university.It was a curious period.He was in this academic environment though he wasn’t a born academic himself.But he generally enjoyed himself because he got to know some of the professors there.He wasn’t popular among them, because they thought he was a bit of a wastrel(不务正业者), so he hung out in pubs and met students.”②Thomas also took paid jobs at the BBC, regularly travelling to London and became something of a celebrity through appearing on panel show.③“He didn’t really endear(使受垂青) himself to Professor Taylor,”Mr Lycett says.“He_overstayed_his_welcome.The professor liked to have a barrel of beer in the house and Dylan would finish it off.He just took a dislike to him, partly because, reading between the lines, his wife rather fancied this young man.”Mark Davies, an Oxford historian, says Professor Taylor disliked the poet “intensely”.“He ended up being banished(驱逐) a safe distance away from his wife,” he adds.This banishment was in the picturesque village of South Leigh, nine miles out from the city, in a house set up for Thomas by Margaret, who continued to be his proud sponsor.However, it was here that his granddaughter Hannah Ellis believes Thomas found much of the inspiration for one of his most famous works, the radio drama Under Milk Wood.“South Leigh is hugely important because that was one of those villages where he met all the different characters and it helped him arouse his passion,” she says.“The play had been a seed from when he was about 20 and I think it was that village lifestyle and all the characters that helped.He liked sitting in the corner of the pub, watching all the drama going on.Also he had somewhere quiet to work and a home.For such a long time he hadn’t settled and it was a good period in his life.”④Mrs Taylor also helped him return to Wales when he was ready in 1949, buying him a boathouse with her own money.He lived there for the remainder of his life.“People so often focus on the other periods of his life and they forget about Oxford,” adds Ms Ellis.“They see the romantic period of living in Laugharne at the boathouse, and the contrast of the chaotic times in New York.”“There’s just something interesting about this little Welshman wandering around the streets of Oxford,” adds Mr Lycett.“The period isn’t discussed much.Somehow or other there was this intervening period that tends to get forgotten.People don’t realize he was starting to think about Under Milk Wood so it wasn’t unproductive.His time in Oxford was an important period of his life.”Indeed Mr Davies believes Thomas’ connection to Oxford would be better known if he had studied at the university. “Because he didn’t and he was only here as a guest of the college it has been brushed to one side,”he said.“There are some great historical characters who, because they’re not associated with the university, have been pushed sideways out of history.”A new tour, organized by Literature Wales, aims to make this clear.Its trail takes in the poet’s summerhouse, and the village that became his home.It means the city will finally take the time to remember and treasure one more person in its long line of literary giants.1.Which of the following is TRUE about Thomas’ life in Oxford?A.Most of his works were created there.B.He wasn’t popular among students there.C.Professors didn’t think he was academic enough.D.Knowing professors there brought him respect.2.What does the underlined sentence “He overstayed his welcome.” in Paragraph 4 mean?A.He stayed much longer than he had planned to.B.He behaved inappropriately so that he was no longer welcome.C.He decided to return to Wales because he was more popular there.D.He was thinking about moving to South Leigh he had been dreaming of.3.What inspired Thomas to write Under Milk Wood?A.Studying at Oxford.B.Living in South Leigh.C.Living with the Taylors.D.Learning from historical characters.4.What does the underlined word “this” in the last paragraph refer to?A.His time in Oxford tends to get forgotten.B.He was only a guest when he was in Oxford.C.There is something interesting about this little man.D.His connection to Oxford should be remembered.5.What did Mrs Taylor do for Thomas?①She put him and his family up in Oxford.②She helped him to publish his poetry.③She set up a house for him at South Leigh.④She introduced him to professors in Oxford.⑤She bought him a boathouse in Wales.A.①②④ B.①③④C.①③⑤D.②③⑤6.Where should Ho w e v er, after a year li v ing w ith the Taylors, things turned sour. be

town,but to another country.You and your family have become immigrants.People are called immigrants when they move to a foreign country to make their homes.People become immigrants for many reasons.The most common one is economic opportunities.Most immigrants are attracted to other countries by the promise of jobs,farmland,or business opportunities.Other people become immigrants in order to get away from mistreatment or natural disasters.They are refugees.Some refugees move to avoid wars and political unrest.Others are seeking freedom to express their religious views.Still others are uprooted by disasters,such as terrible flooding or drought.Some people have become immigrants against their will.Captured in Africa,shipped to foreign lands and forced to work as slaves,many early African immigrants to North and South America came in chains.Except for Native Americans,all people came to the United States from someplace else.For nearly 500 years,immigrants have landed on America’s shores seeking a better life.Throughout American history,immigrants often worked low­paying,dangerous jobs that other people refused to do.Immigrants from around the world helped shape American life.Many immigrants absorbed the customs and language common to most Americans.They also brought their owntraditions,including music and foods.Over time,many of these traditions have become part of American life.The first European immigrants to America hoped to colonize new lands.By the mid­1500s,Spaniards had ventured into Florida,California,and the American Southwest.French immigrants

第八组(建议用时:20分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解There is more of a connection between food and culture than youmay think. On an individual level, we grow up eating the food of ourculture. It becomes a part of who we are. Many associate food from ourchildhood with warm feelings and good memories and it ties us to ourfamilies, holding a special and personal value for us. Food from our family often becomes the comfort food we seek as adults in times of frustration and stress.On a large scale, traditional food is an important part of culture. It also operates as an expression of culture identity. Immigrants bring it wherever they go, and it is a symbol of pride for their culture and means of coping with homesickness.Many immigrants open their own restaurants and serve traditional dishes. However, the food does not remain exactly the same. Some materials needed to make traditional dishes may not be readily available, so the taste and flavor can be different from what they would prepare in their home countries. Additionally, immigrants do not only sell dishes to people from the same countries as them, but to people from different countries. Therefore, they have to make small changes about the original dishes to cater to a wider range of customers. Those changes can create new flavors that still keep the cultural significance of the dishes.We should embrace our heritage(传统) through our culture’s food but also become more informed about other cultures by trying their food. It is important to remember that each dish has a special place in the culture to which it belongs, and is special to those who prepare it. Food is a window into culture, and it should be treated as such.1.What’s the function of food mentioned in the text?A.To help motivate homesickness.B.To show national identity.C.To reflect a country’s history.D.To show a community’s superiority.2.What does the underlined word “it”in paragraph 2 refer to?A.The specific traditional food.B.The national culture.C.A traditional expression of food.D.The old­fashioned taste.3.Why do some immigrants have to change the original dishes in their restaurant?A.To attach cultural importance to their dishes.B.To announce the beginning of their life on foreign soil.C.To make the dishes popular among customers.D.To present their own food culture in a new way.4.What’s the author’s attitude towards different food cultures?A.Negative.B.Balanced.C.Unfair. D.Unchangeable.Ⅱ.任务型阅读(2019·江苏百校大联考)Restaurants have been using tablets instead of classic menus for years, and some have even introduced app-powered ordering and payment options, but until not too long ago, plates seemed to be immune to this high-tech trend. They’re feeling the heat now, though, as more and more restaurants swap them for modern tablet-based dishes, in an effort to attract customers and give them an appetite for fine cuisine.Quince, a Michelin-starred restaurant in San Francisco has recently swapped old-fashioned plates for Apple iPads for a couple of its most popular dishes. They are serving a dish called A Dog in Search of Gold on an Apple iPad that is playing a video of a dog hunting for truffles(块菌). If you’re wondering about the connection, the dish is made up of white truffle croquettes(炸丸子). And in case you’re not into truffles, Quince also serves frog legs on top of iPads playing videos of frogs in a pond.“The idea was simply about taking the guest on a voyage to being out truffle hunting then having a moment when the truffle is dug from the ground,”said Michael Tusk. “Living in San Francisco for over twenty years I have witnessed the development of technology, and I wanted to combine dish es with technology and a little bit of education.”Local chef Richie Nakano caused quite the stir(轰动) on social media after posting a photo of A Dog in Search of Gold that a friend had ordered. Some people complained about the $220 price tag of the dish, others wondered what the point of the iPads was, but most expressed concerns about hygiene(卫生). “This is so unhealthy,”one person commented. “Do people not remember how many microbes are on touch screens?”Things got a bit out of hand over that last one, so Tusk had to clarify the situation on Facebook. “The iPad and the custom walnut box it rests in combine a little bit of technology, education and so on,”he wrote. “As to the construction and design of the box we asked local wood worker and friend Luke Bartels to create a house for the iPad—a simple frame with a plexiglass cover that protects the screen. The food does not directly sit on top of the iPad. The removable plexiglass is cleared after every use in keeping with all other plate ware.”Quince is reportedly the first U.S. restaurant to use tablets as plates, but definitely not the first in the world. The restaurants in the U.K. have been using them since two years ago, and the Arzak restaurant, in San Sebastián, Spain, is famous for its unique glass plates with iPads encased in them.San Francisco Restaurant Serves Food on iPads Instead of PlatesThe influence of modern technology on restaurants ·Tablets are being used for customers to order dishes and 1.____________ for the bill.·Tablets are also used as plates in some restaurants to make customers have a good 2.____________.One3.____________:Quince, a restaurant in San Francisco ·A dish called A Dog in Search of Gold*It is one of the restaurant’s most popular dishes and is being4.____________on an Apple iPad.*The dish consists of white truffle croquettes and videos are played.*It may keep customers 5.____________of truffles after having such a dish. *Michael Tusk tried to make the dish with a 6.____________of technology and some education.·People’s comments on the dish are various:*Some made a 7.____________about the price.

第二组(建议用时:20分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解(2019·苏州质检)J.K. Rowling is the author of the most successful book series in history, but her attempt to take on a new career as a screenwriter hasn’t been as smooth as she may have thought it would be. The sequel(续篇), “Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald”,shows that even the most successful author in the world is in need of checks and balances when making the transition to cinema.Following the sale of half a billion copies of the Harry Potter series, Rowling is working hard to extend and enrich the mythology she created around the child wizard. In contrast to the eight Harry Potter movies, which were based on the seven books and most of which were written by experienced screenwriter Steve Kloves, the “Fantastic Beasts” series is scripted only by Rowling. This time she skipped the bookstores and went straight to the movie theater.The “Fantastic Beasts” series takes its title from one of Harry Potter’s textbooks. The leap backward in time, a new set of adult heroes and a globe­spanning background show that Rowling is in tune with her fans and the spirit of the times. Harry Potter and his friends started out as a typical product of 1990s naivety, but since then the loyal veteran audience has experienced the shocks of the 21st century and grown mature and discouraged. The “Fantastic Beasts” series feels less like children’s fare; it deals with adults and frightening events that occurred in Europe at the end of the 1920s.It’s 1927, and the criminal Grindelwald has escaped from prison to Europe. The hero, Newt Scamander, a zoologist of fantastic beasts, prefers to distance himself from politics and maintain his improvised nature reserve in London. But the young Prof. Dumbledore reminds him that neutrality is not an option in hard times. Dumbledore urges him to cross the Channel to Paris and stop Grindelwald, who is trying to plot a war to ensure the purity of the wizard race.The rough outline of the plot constitutes only part of the movie. There are many other characters who appear in the mystery. I will mention the boy Credence who continues to have a central role in the struggle between the hero and the villain, even as his background remains a mystery. Similarly, Newt’s brother and partner, the snake­woman Nagini, and other new and old characters hint at an obscure past and future. Rowling populates her world with characters—large and small, odd beasts and simplifies its story to lay the foundation work of the universe. The film lays strong foundations of mystery, but forgets to build any sort of structure above them. It’s like a construction site where the budget runs out too fast.With movie screens full of superheroes and fantasy frames, and every studio trying to float a fictional universe, Rowling is today’s most creative builder of cinema worlds, but there’s still a difference between her and a mega­corporation like Disney. Every character and beast is therebecause Rowling said so, not because the marketing division thought it would promote sales of merchandise. Rowling clearly has a true passion to create a mythology, and just as clearly, she hasn’t yet finished creating it.The “Fantastic Beasts” series offers a world even fuller than that of Harry Potter. Once more she collaborates with David Yates, who directed the last four Harry Potter movies and now the two “Fantastic Beasts”pictures. Still, the world she’s created would be even more wondrous if Rowling had only filled it out with a crystallized or at least coherent plot. In the Harry Potter series, she mostly succeeded in making the films into independent works. But without experienced screenwriters to mediate between her imagination and the screen, the two “Fantastic Beasts”episodes are more like a chess game in which the creator moves characters from A to B as part of a broader strategy—which remains unclear.“Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald” is a film made for existing fans and doesn’t bother to appeal to a new audience. Not by chance does it offer a more mature world for fans who have grown up at least as much as Daniel Radcliffe. For them, the movie delivers the goods, but little of the magic remains. If Rowling continues to put out films without a beginning and an end, her world will collapse, leaving only the middle. It may be entertainment with captivating characters and effects, but it’s not a movie.1.What change has J.K. Rowling made in her writing career?A.She was forced to abandon her original writing career and start a new one.B.She was determined to skip the bookstores and publish books on her own.C.She started a new fantasy book having nothing to do with the Harry Potter series.D.She tried to enrich the Harry Potter series as a screenwriter rather than a novelist.2.Who are probably the target audience of the “Fantastic Beasts” series?A.Kids newly introduced to magic.B.Teenage students with grand dreams.C.Adults going through life changes.D.Professional critics of fantasy books.3.What are the features of the “Fantastic Beasts” series?A.The complex story and exciting characters.B.The simple story but abundant characters.C.The childish story and strange characters.D.The sad story but inspiring characters.4.Big corporations like Disney choose movie characters and beasts based on ________.A.potential profitability of the moviesB.preference of their screenwritersC.consultation with the original authorD.investigation into successful films5.How does the author explain Rowling’s failure to create a clear plot?A.By describing shooting processes.B.By listing official statistics.C.By drawing a comparison.D.By citing examples.6.What does the author think of J.K. Rowling’s performance as a screenwriter?A.It is really a disappointment for moviegoers.B.It is widely acknowledged by her book fans.C.There exits much more magic in her screenplay.D.There is still much room for improvement.Ⅱ.任务型阅读Country music has never really been a popular music type in Southern California.It’s as if country music were restricted to specific areas, mainly in the South and Midwest.I accept that today’s country music is not as good as it once was.Since 2012, it has really gone downhill and has become more pop music than anything else, which is a shame because there were many great country musicians that produced amazing music.Here in SoCal, country music is not the mainstream, but quite the opposite.If you like country music, it’s likely that you will get looked down on and lectured on how country music is no good.You may find a few brave people that openly admit to liking country music, and it is with them that you can complain there are not enough country concerts nearby.It’s rare to find younger folks that genuinely enjoy country music in SoCal, mainly because they are not really exposed to it.You either listen to it because your family likes it or you stumble upon(意外发现) it one day when you are flipping through the stations looking for a good song and get hooked.Both of these are rare occurrences, mainly because even if your family likes country music, it doesn’t necessarily mean you do.Besides, the chance of stopping on a country station here is probably less than 25%.I think it is important to show appreciation of country music, mainly because it is slowly disappearing.What’s more, it is a fundamental part of American history and culture.If you were to look back on the roots of country music, you would find a blend of different elements such as folk, jazz, the blues, and rock.It is also one of the last forms of storytelling. Country music started off as a way to tell a story or an event, like the blues and folk music.Country music is one of the oldest music types still around and we owe it to ourselves to find appreciation of it and what it has to offer.I’m not saying you have to love it, but at least recognize that it has character, like most thingsin the past.We don’t have to like it, but it’s important to learn about it.So give it a chance and listen to some of the classics or really any piece of country music before 2012.You might find yourself pleasantly surprised.Country MusicThe introd­uction to countrymusic ·Country music is more 1.____________ in the South and Midwest of America than in Southern California.·The 2._____________ of today’s country music has decreased.·It has gone downhill and tended to be more 3.____________ to pop music since 2012.Country music in SoCal ·Many people are not brave enough to admit that they like country music to 4.____________ being looked down on.·Country music is not mainstream music in SoCal and country music concerts are not often 5.____________.·Younger generations don’t enjoy country music because they seldom 6.__________ themselves to it either in their family or in public.The7.____________ ofcountrymusic ·It is an essential part of American history and culture.·It is one of the last forms of 8.__________.·Appreciating country music means preventing its 9.____________.·Listening to classical country music or that created before 2012 can bring a pleasant feeling.The conclusion We don’t 10.____________ have to love country music, but at least we should recognize that it has its own characteristics and learn about it.第二组Ⅰ.阅读理解【解题导语】 文章对J.K.

后句句意:如果到那时雨已经停了,我们就在五点出发。

在条件状语从句中,主句用将来时,从句往往用一般现在时或者现在完成时表示将来。

所以必须在A和B中选择。

be about to表示“即将就要发生的动作”,一般不可以和时间状语连用,因此选A。

根据第二个人的话可知,飓风还没有来到,因此明天上午飓风到达这个海岸是现在做出的预测,现在发生的事情用一般现在时,predict与主语hurricane之间是被动关系。

因此推断predict用一般现在时的被动语态。

In a word: yes. The HR company Insperity put it in a recent blog post: Can your employees discuss their salaries or wages with their co­workers? Yes. Even if you have a company policy against it? Yes.The freedom to discuss your salary at work is a protected right under the labor law. The National Labor Relations Act of 1935 protects your right to discuss the conditions of your employment, including issues related to safety and pay, even when you’re not protected by a union.Talking about salary with colleagues can be uncomfortable, since there’s such a taboo about discussing money matters, but it’s an important step towards achieving equal pay for equal work. One barrier, however, stems from how we think of our own financial worth. Too many people I talk to wrongly consider their salary a reflection of their worthiness, a statement about their skills, experience, or value. At the end of the day, if we can all separate our self­worth from our salaries a bit more, it’ll become easier to talk frankly with our colleagues.Asking about money outright can be tough, so one trick I’ve picked up along the way is to ask for your colleagues to confirm or deny. For instance, you might volunteer your salary first and ask “Does that sound right to you?” by way of comparison. Or, let’s say you’re interviewing for a promotion to become a manager. You might ask a fellow manager about the kind of salary youshould expect by saying, “I’m seeing salaries for this kind of position ranging from $65,000 to $70,000—does that seem accurate to you?” This way, even if your colleague isn’t comfortable sharing their salary outright, they can help you identify if your expectations are appropriate.1.What makes co­workers uncomfortable to talk about salaries?A.The safety issue.B.The labor law.C.The wrong idea about salaries.D.The reflection of their worthiness.2.What does “taboo” underlined in paragraph 3 refer to?A.A prohibited practice.
