AThe following is the lesson plan for teaching English based on TED talks and other videos worth watching．LESSON OVERVIEWThis lesson plan is based on a short video presenting a man who shares experiences from his unusual journey and masters vocabulary in particular travel phrasal verbs．Students will also have a lot of opportunities to speak as they will share their traveling experiences．TRAVEL PHRASAL VERBSThe worksheet starts with tasks built around travel phrasal verbs．First，students get six sentences and they have to finish them by choosing a correct answer which will reflect the meaning of a given phrasal verb．Next，students complete questions with the correct forms of some of the phrasal verbs from the previous exercise．After that they need to discuss these questions．QUOTE & VOCABULARYThen，students move to the next part of the lesson plan．They have a quote by Anthony Bourdain who claims that “Travel isn't always pretty．It isn't always comfortable．．．”．They need to discuss it and share their opinion about it．Next，they move to a vocabulary task．After that，students have to match halves to create phrases which come from the video and include words from the previous task．VIDEO & DISCUSSIONThe last part of the lesson plan starts with a short lead-in to the video in the form of a discussion about experiences and challenges we can face on a walking adventure．Then，students watch the video and summarize it by using their own words．Finally，to wrap up the lesson，students discuss the walking journey presented in the video and their own attitude towards such traveling．21．What theme does this lesson focus on？A．A special lecture．B．A travel schedule．C．A lecture guidance．D．A travel experience．22．How does the teacher end the lesson？A．By listing questions．B．By exchanging ideas．C．By making a prediction．D．By giving an examination．23．What's the author's purpose of writing the text？A．To tell readers how to study English．B．To inform readers of the importance of English．C．To show teachers how to have an English class．D．To remind teachers of the necessity of a teaching plan．BJohn Reid decided to donate his son Dakota's organs after the 16-year-old died in a car crash last year．This month，he got a thank you gift from the man who received his son's heart：a teddy bear with a very special heartbeat inside．John's wife Stephanie posted an emotional video showing her husband's reaction a she opened the package from the receiver of his son's heart，Robert O'Connor．“I would have preferred to give this to you in person，but not sure when that would happen，” John said，as he read from the letter O'Connor sent．John eventually began to break down as he opened the package to reveal a bear dressed in a shirt reading，Best Dad Ever．" He then heard the audio recording inside the bear：his son's heart beating inside the man it saved．“When I got the bear，my heart was filled with joy．I did not expect any of this，” said John．“I never left Dakota's side．At night I would lay my head on his chest for hours at a time，every night，listening to his heartbeat．Now，I can listen to his heartbeat again！”Dakota was killed in a car crash in January 2019．He was riding as a passenger in the car when the accident happened．“When they said，'It's time，'they rolled him out and we followed，” John said．“Both sides of the hallway were lined up with nurses，doctors and staff as we walked between them in Dakota's honor to the operating room to say our final ‘see you soon'．”At the beginning，the family didn't know where their son's organs would be going，but eventually O'Connor's daughter tracked the Reid family down and contacted them．It wasn't long before O'Connor sent John the bear．John speaks with O'Connor daily about the importance of organ donation and how they hope to spread the word about the good it can do．24．Who received the young boy's heart？A．Robert O'Connor．B．Dakota．C．Stephanie Reid．D．O'Connor's daughter．25．How did John feel when he received the teddy bear？A．Angry and shocked．B．Surprised and happy．C．Amazed and hurt．D．Excited and relieved．26．What can we infer from the text？A．The Reids didn't agree on the donation．B．Dakota was driving without a license．C．Teenagers will be banned from driving．D．John had a close relationship with his son．27．What did the family mean by saying “see you soon” before the operation？A．They believed the boy would recover soon．B．They didn't know about the organ donation．C．They didn't have confidence in the doctors．D．The boy's life would continue in another form．CIn a recent study，pizza was ranked as the food most associated with symptoms of addiction，according to the Yale Food Addiction Tool．The psychological response to pizza's ingredient combinations is partially explained by the fact that highly processed foods like potato chips and pizza，with added amounts of fat，carbohydrates and salt，are most associated with behavioral indicators of addiction，such as loss of control over consumption and continued consumption despite negative consequences，according to Erica M．Schulte，a doctor in psychology at the University of Michigan who led the study．The combination of pizza's ingredients “seem to be especially rewarding and do not occur together in foods found in nature and this may contribute to its association with addictive-like eating behaviors，” Schulte explained．In fact，another recent study found that the combination of fat and carbohydrates seems to raise the reward potential of highly processed foods more than either alone．“There is likely something more rewarding in the combinations of those ingredients that can result in an addictive process in some individuals，” Schulte said．Perhaps it's a survival mechanism．“If you were really starving，pizza is a type of food that would be totally enough to stop your hunger．The fat gives you satiety，the sugar is satisfying，and the salt is going to keep you alive，” Civille said．Herbert Stone，a sensory scientist for 50 years，has worked with some of the nation's top pizza companies in order to increase pizza's appeal to consumers．“That combination，when heated，has enormous appeal，” he said．“It's addictive because there is nothing bad about it．There is nothing not to like．”28．What might be the cause of pizza addiction according to Schulte？A．The materials for making pizza．B．The way it is prepared．C．The pleasant taste and smell．D．The energy it provides．29．What does “either” refer to in paragraph 3？A．One of the two studies．B．Pizza or potato chips．C．Carbohydrates or fat．D．Pizza or other processed foods．30．Why would pizza companies work with Herbert？A．To make pizza more nutritious．B．To fight against pizza addiction．C．To study how to prepare pizza．D．To make their pizza more popular．31．From which is the text probably taken？A．A biology textbook．B．A health magazine．C．A research paper．D．A travel brochure．DThese are dark days for supplements（养生片剂）．Although they are a $ 30-billion-plus market in the United States alone，some of them，such as vitamin A and fish oil，have now flopped in study after study．If there was one supplement that seemed sure to survive the tests，it was vitamin D．People with low levels of vitamin D have significantly higher rates of virtually every disease you can think of．Health experts believe that most of us aren't getting enough of this essential vitamin．Vitamin D is manufactured by the skin with the help of sunlight．It's difficult to obtain in sufficientquantities through diet．And today，90 percent of us spend about 22 hours indoors every day．And when we do go outside，we've been taught to wear sunscreen to protect ourselves from dangerous UV rays．Sunscreen can reduce our natural production of vitamin D，so we've been told to compensate with vitamin D pills．Yet vitamin D supplementation has failed in clinical trials．The sun benefits us more than that．About ten years ago，Dr．Richard Weller was researching nitric oxide，a molecule（分子）produced in the body that lowers blood pressure．He discovered a previously unknown biological mechanism by which the skin uses sunlight to make nitric oxide．It was already suspected that rates of high blood pressure，heart disease，and stroke all rise the farther you get from the sunny equator（赤道），and they all rise in the darker months．Then he came up with a theory：Could exposing skin to sunlight lower blood pressure？Sure enough，when he exposed volunteers to the equivalent（等量）of 30 minutes of summer sunlight without sunscreen，their nitric oxide levels went up and their blood pressure went down．Wouldn't all those rays also raise rates of skin cancer？Yes，but skin cancer kills surprisingly fewer than three per 100，000 in the United States each year．For every person who dies of skin cancer，about 80 die from diseases caused by high blood pressure．32．What does the underlined word “flopped” in paragraph 1 mean？A．Appeared．B．Expanded．C．Failed．D．Returned．33．What might be a reason most of us lack vitamin D？A．We aren't eating a healthy diet．B．We expose ourselves to little sunlight．C．We aren't taking enough vitamin D pills．D．We use up the vitamin D manufactured by the skin．34．Which of the following can describe nitric oxide？A．It rises up during dark months．B．It can bring nothing but harm to us．C．It results from an abnormal biological reaction．D．It is high among people living near the equator．35．What could be the best title for the text？A．Do we take too many supplements？B．Do we really need sun protection？C．Is the sun to blame for many diseases？D．Can sunscreen protect us from skin cancer？第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
长郡中学高二英语分班考试试题及参考答案
高二英语入学分班考试试题Ⅰ.阅读理解AHungry For a WinA victor is,by definition,someone who wins a struggle or contest.However,that doesn’t mean he or she will live a proud and happy life ever after,as Katniss Everdeen is about to discover in The Hunger Games:Catching Fire.Catching Fire,out in Chinese theaters on Nov.21,is set in a futuristic society called Panem. Every year its government holds a televised fight to the death.Two teenagers from each of the12 districts of Panem are chosen to compete.In the new film,last year’s victors Katniss(Jennifer Lawrence)and her partner Peeta are back home after winning the74th Hunger Games.Katniss just wants to live a normal life. However,that never seems to happen.She has nightmares,which remind her that she is a killer.Her worst nightmare comes true when the annual Hunger Games arrive again.The teenager finds herself back in the competition along with Peeta.Since Katniss brings hope to Panem through her courage,President Snow plans to use this year’s Games to kill off Katniss and Peeta and in turn dampen the fire of rebellion.“This is the next step of Katniss’heroism and the next part of her journey to finding out who she is really going to be，”Lawrence told Reuters.Fastpaced and full of action,Catching Fire looks to outdo the success that the first film had in2012.With a97percent rating on the movie review website Rotten Tomatoes,it is enjoying positive reviews.Critics have praised it for being faithful to the book written by American author Suzanne Collins.The Hollywood Reporter said that Catching Fire outshines the first movie a lot.Jennifer Lawrence,who won a best actress Oscar this year for her2012movie Silver Linings Playbook,has helped Catching Fire find success,Forbes pointed out.The23yearold actress does well in playing a young lady who hates what she was forced to do to stay alive yet is determined not to give up.“Lawrence’s downtoearth personality in real life won the hearts of the public.So given a wildly popular first film that blew everyone away,a rising fan base and a lead performer beloved by the mainstream press and viewers,the sequel(续集)was always going to be big，”Forbes noted.1．The underlined word“dampen”in Paragraph4is closest in meaning to“________”．A．hold B．lightC．reduce D．support2．Which of the following is TRUE about the film’s story according to the article?A．Every year12teenagers in total are chosen to join in the televised fight.B．Despite having won the74th Hunger Games,Katniss doesn’t feel much joy.C．Katniss and Peeta are chosen once again to make the TV show more appealing.D．Jennifer Lawrence won a best actress Oscar this year for the first The Hunger Gamesmovie.3．What are some reasons why Catching Fire will probably be successful?a．The previous film was successful.b．It is true to the original book’s story.c．Most of the reviews of the movie are positive.d．It has many famous stars in addition to Jennifer Lawrence.A．abc B．abdC．acd D．bcd4．In which column of a newspaper can readers find this article?A．Beautiful Mind.B．Campus Trends.C．Culture Discovery.D．Society.BSometimes current affairs feel as if they are worlds away from our daily lives.What does it matter if there is a war on another continent if you’re engaged in a war at home every evening? What does it matter if women in other countries can’t vote when neither can you?It matters a lot, as it so happens!In our globalised world current affairs everywhere have a huge impact on our lives,most of the time without us even realising it.To see this effect in action,make sure you pick up the paper now and again and connect it with events in your local community.When patterns emerge,you’ll be glad you did.Have you ever heard about the Butterfly Effect?You may have heard that when a butterfly flaps(拍打)its wings somewhere,a storm is created somewhere else.If you don’t believe it,have a look at these examples:Drought makes wheat scarce and the price of bread rises.Oil runs dry and the price of your holiday flights rises very quickly.Civil war increases the number of refugees(难民).A change in national government causes your local school to change its meals.So you are supposed to track the news.Keep up with current affairs by:Buying newspapers; reading the news online;watching daily news bulletins;exploring news and current affairs magazines.It is obvious that current affairs anywhere in the world could potentially affect your life,no matter where or how you live it.The only way to take back some control is to get involved.You don’t have to plan to be the next Prime Minister,but if you are concerned about something,do something about it.Consider:Voting with your money and only purchasing products you believe in.Volunteering for a cause you support.Getting involved in a political campaign you hope will be successful.Studying the subject further and considering a career in the area.Keeping up with current affairs is not something to do if you have time;it is something for which you make time.Every day we have the chance to witness history in the making,but many of us let television,games,chats and other silly behaviors or attitudes get in the way.Make sure to give at least a half hour of each day towards reading the news,exploring current affairs and finding ways to make your thoughts and feeling known.5．According to the first paragraph,many people________.A．don’t care much for events in the local communityB．are not aware of the effects of the current affairsC．find it hard to develop the habit of reading newspapersD．are unwilling to share their views on current affairs6．According to Paragraph2,which of the following is the Butterfly Effect?A．Anything that can go wrong will go wrong.B．The rich get richer and the poor get poorer.C．The greater the expectation placed on people,the better they perform.D．The tiniest influence on one part can have a huge effect on another.7．In Paragraph4,the author encourages readers to________.A．find out the hidden secrets of current affairsB．take part in activities related to current affairsC．develop a good understanding of politicsD．care more about political events than before8．What could be the best title of this text?A．Keeping Up with Current AffairsB．Paying Attention to the Butterfly EffectC．Great Effect of Current AffairsD．Several Tips on Tracking the NewsCIt is safe to say that George Bernard Shaw(18561950),the Irishborn writer,is more famous for being George Bernard Shaw than he is for his writings today.Few of Shaw’s more than60 plays,novels and essays are performed or read anymore.And yet Shaw genuinely helped make our modern world.Although you’d be lucky to get a chance to see one of his dramas today,in his time he turned the theater into a vehicle for the discussion of social issues,not only in Britain but on the stage of the world.In a way Shaw was someone who created the modern culture of Britain.Where the theater had been dominated by entertainment,Shaw used it to teach people the importance of paying attention to the issues of their day.The plight(苦难)of the poor and the working class,the situation of women and the institutions of society,such as the education system —Shaw was among the most wellknown figures making these topics central to public debate. His first play，Widowers’Houses(1892)，deals with the question of slum(贫民窟)housing.His Mrs Warren’s Profession(1893)brought a controversial topic to the stage.Shaw was an important mover and shaker in new political movements too.He was an early member of the Fabian Society,which argued for the socialist cause in the UK.Shaw was also the founder(in1895)of one of the now most famous colleges in the world,the London School of Economics.If few of his works have really stood the test of time,many of his quotations have become part of the furniture of the English language.“Youth is wasted on the young，”he wrote.He also knew how to sum up a political philosophy(哲学)in a few memorable words.For instance：“A government that robs Peter to pay Paul can always depend on the support of Paul.”9．Shaw’s influence on the modern world comes mainly from______.A．the changes he brought to the British cultureB．his philosophies on the role of governmentC．his awareness of social problems of his dayD．the support for the London School of Economics10．Widowers’Houses is a play that mainly focuses on______.A．the failure of the UK education systemB．the housing problems of poor peopleC．robbery incidents in slum areasD．socialist movements in the UK11．By describing Shaw’s quotations as“part of the furniture of the English language”，the author means that Shaw’s words______.A．have become the best part of EnglishB．have greatly developed the English languageC．have made the English language philosophicalD．have become an inseparable part of the English language12．Which of the following about George Bernard Shaw’s works is TRUE?A．They should be adapted for modern readers.B．They are mostly about the lives of working class.C．They deal with important social issues of their day.D．Most of them are still performed on the stage of the world today.DAfter many years on the endangered list of animals,Japan’s Amami rabbit can finally breathe a sigh of relief—that’s because this year,the rare animal is no longer in danger of dying out!The effort to save the darkfurred rabbit often referred to as a living fossil began in1921, when the Japanese government promoted it to the status of“natural monument”.This meant that it could not be hunted down for food.However,when that did not work,it got yet another promotion to“special natural monument”，which meant that the rabbit could not be trapped or hunted.While that helped,it was not enough—by2004with only between2,000—5,000 specimens(样本)left in the wild,the Amami rabbit was officially declared endangered!The reason for the severe population decline was attributed to loss of habitat caused by forest clearing for home and agriculture use and the introduction of a new invasive species not native to the island—mongoose(獴).Brought in to get rid of the snake population,the animals instead seemed to prefer the black rabbit.In2005,the government issued a strict mongoose capture order and slowly but surely,the rabbits started to come back.The rabbit lives a rather unusual lifestyle.Its ideal habitat is a forest that features both trees and large grasses—the former to find acorns(橡实)to feed on and the latter,to hide its babies. That’s because to protect them from being eaten by predators,the Amami rabbit buries them deep into the ground among the grasses and covers them up with dirt during the day.Then,in the middle of the night,still keeping a vigilant eye out for predators,it digs them out from their hiding place and feeds them.No wonder the animal is sometimes referred to as“midnight rabbit”．Though many measures have been taken to stop this furry treasure from being wiped out from the world,there are many more that are still in danger.We sure hope that officials in other parts of the world try their best to save the endangered species.13．The status of“natural monument”in Para.2means________.A．you can’t kill the darkfurred rabbitB．you can’t capture the darkfurred rabbitC．you can’t hunt the darkfurred rabbit for foodD．you can’t trap or hunt the darkfurred rabbit14．Why was the rabbit still in danger after it was promoted to“special natural monument”？A．Because it was always eaten by snakes.B．Because people still wanted to capture it for food.C．Because the rabbit lived a rather unusual lifestyle.D．Because of loss of habitat and a new invasive species.15．Which of the following words can replace the underlined word in Para.4in the passage?A．watchful B．goodC．fearful D．shiny16．What can we infer from the last paragraph?A．Many officials don’t pay attention to rare species.B．Rare black Amami rabbits are no longer endangered.C．Saving the endangered species has a long way to go.D．The measures taken to protect the rabbit were in vain.Ⅱ.完形填空When I was young,I had a friend named Mark who loved to make

湖南省长郡中学2020-2021学年高二上学期期中考试英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读选择A trip to Paris is not complete without a visit to the Eiffel Tower. To get the most out of your visit, read our tips below:Visit at NightRiding up the Eiffel Tower at night and looking out over the streets of Paris, you’ll see why Paris is known as the “City of Light”. At street level, the spotlights on the top of the Tower zoom across t he Paris skyline, and the reflections of the Tower in the Seine are sights not to be missed.Purchase Your Ticket in Advance OnlineBypass the long ticket lines at the Eiffel Tower by purchasing your ticket online from the Eiffel Tower website. You’ll pick a time to visit, and then select whether to print out the ticket or display it on your phone or iPad, which is a convenient option if you buy your ticket in Paris without easy access to a printer.Don’t Bring V aluable Objects with YouBefore entering the Eiffel Tower, your bags will be examined by a security officer. If an item you are carrying sets off the metal detector, the officer will take you away from the line for further inspection. We’ve stood in line for hours witnessing people who missed their chance to go up the Eiffel Tower.Have Drinks and Snacks at the Eiffel TowerIf you’re like us, after an exciting trip to the Eiffel Tower, you’ll be ready to rest your legs and have a relaxing snack and a drink in a Parisian cafe. Across the Seine in the Trocadero area, there are many elegant cafes. The atmosphere is great, but the prices are in the stratosphere (最高水平). Actually, the perfect place for common visitors to eat and drink is on the Eiffel Tower itself.1．Why does the author suggest visiting the Tower at night?A．Because you can stand on the top of the Tower.B．Because you can avoid the crowds and enjoy it peacefully.C．Because you can have a special sight of the city of Paris.D．Because you can see the Seine as clearly as possible.2．What does the underlined word “Bypass” in Paragraph 3 mean?A．Stand in. B．Avoid.C．Control. D．Remember.3．Why did some people fail to go up the Eiffel Tower?A．Because they didn’t seize the chance.B．Because they lost valuable objects.C．Because they set off the metal detector.D．Because they had a quarrel with the officer.When I was in middle school, a poisonous spider bit my right hand. I ran to my mom for help —but instead of taking me to a doctor, my mom set my hand on fire. After wrapping my hand with several layers of cotton, then soaking it in wine, she put a chopstick into my mouth, and ignited the cotton. Heat quickly penetrated the cotton and began to roast my hand. The pain made me want to scream, but the chopstick prevented it. All I could do was watch my hand burn —one minute, then two minutes— until mom put out the fire.You see, the part of China I grew up in was a rural village, and at that time preindustrial. When I was born, my village had no cars, no telephones, no electricity, and even no running water. And we certainly didn’t have access to modern medical resources. There was no doctor my mother could bring me to see about my spider bite.For those who study biology, you may have grasped the science behind my mom’s cure: heat deactivates(使失去活性) proteins, and a spider’s venom (毒液) is simply a form of protein. It’s cool how that folk remedy actually incorporates basic biochemistry, isn’t it? But I am a PhD student in biochemistry at Harvard, I now know that better, less painful and less risky treatments existed. So I can’t help but ask myself why I didn’t rece ive one at the time.Fifteen years have passed since that incident I am happy to report that my hand is fine. But this question lingers, and I continue to be troubled by it. We have learned to edit the human genome(基因组) and unlock many secrets of how cancer progresses. We can control neuronal activity literally with the switch of a light. Each year brings more advances in biomedical research—exciting, transformative accomplishments. Yet, despite the knowledge we have accumulated, we haven’ t been so successful in distributing it to where it’s needed most. According to the World Bank, twelve percent of the world’s population lives on less than $ 2 aday. Malnutrition kills more than 3 million children annually. Three hundred million people are suffering malaria globally. All over the world, we constantly see these problems of poverty, illness, and lack of resources preventing the flow of scientific information. Life-saving knowledge we take for granted in the modern world is often unavailable in these underdeveloped regions. And in far too many places, people are still essentially trying to cure a spider bite with fire.4．How did the author’s mom cure him of the spider’s bite?A．She sent him to the nearby hospital immediately.B．She asked the neighbors for help.C．She wrapped the wound with cotton and burnt it.D．She let him drink some wine.5．What was NOT the author’s hometown like?A．It was a backward village in China.B．It was an industrial rural village.C．It had no running water, telephones or cars.D．People there had no access to modern medical care.6．Which of the following can replace the underlined word “incorporates” in Paragraph 3? A．includes B．resistsC．inspires D．invents7．What does the author want to do most?A．Change the unequal distribution of scientific knowledge.B．Discover more secrets to cancer.C．Bring more advances in biochemistry.D．Invent better and less painful treatments.Growing up in Puerto Rico, our family was no different from so many others. My parents got married after my father came back when the war ended. Both of my parents were struggling with the hard economic realities of the time. But somehow, they found time to cherish those cultural values that shaped our everyday life.In our daily life, we celebrated together with our friends or family members every birthday, every graduation, and all holidays with music and dancing, and typical foods. When we visited our family in the countryside—a trip that took about two hours in a car, with five childrenfighting as to who would get a window or the front seat —we would break into song, and somehow the trip would turn into one full of happiness and fun. We would sing not only interesting children’s songs but also beautiful love songs — songs about the love of our country though we didn’t understand the meaning of the words many times.I came to Philadelphia for the first time in 1973 to do a residency(实习) in family medicine. I remember the many hours of work. I was facing issues of life and death and suffering the clearly social unfairness and issues of poverty and race. These were all worsened by my feeling of cultural differences.An important turning point in my life happened one Saturday night when I attended a concert of Puerto Rico singer and composer Antonio Caban Vale. The music showed my familiar rhythms, and the words spoke to my heart. I had found a space to express, celebrate, and share my culture in Philadelphia. Therefore, I believe diversity is seen as an advantage and not as a disadvantage. As a Puerto Rican, I am a mixture of races and I believe in my strength because of this.8．What do we know about the author’s family?A．They lived a well-off life.B．They suffered a lot from war.C．They were tired of family activities.D．They took cultural values seriously.9．Why does the author mention the trip in Paragraph 2?A．To prove her pride in her culture.B．To show fun brought by her culture.C．To express her love for the country.D．To show the fight between her siblings.10．What added to the author’s depressing life in Ph iladelphia?A．Dangers as a doctor. B．Prejudice from the rich.C．Cultural shock. D．Low payment.11．What did the concert make the author aware of?A．The excitement of the rhythms.B．The value of the lyrics.C．The advantage of cultural diversity.D．The strength of believing in oneself.Are you preparing for a big test? If so, you may want to go to play some basketball in between hitting the books. Doctors are starting to find more and more information that suggests a connection between exercise and brain development. Judy Cameron, a scientist at Oregon Health and Science University, studies brain development. According to her research, it seems that exercise can make blood vessels (血管), including those in the brain, stronger and more fully developed. Dr. Cameron is sure that this allows people who exercise to think better. As she says, “While we already know that exercise is good for the heart, exercise can actually cause physical changes in the brain.”The effects of exercise on brain development can even be seen in babies. Babies who do activities that require a lot of movement show greater brain development than babies who are less physically active. Even a little movement can show big results. Margaret Barnes, a scientist, also believes in the importance of exercise. She thinks that many learning disabilities that children have in primary school or high school can result from a lack of movement as babies. Babies need movement that encourages and excites their five senses. They need to set up a connection between motion and memory. In this way, as they get older, children will begin to connect physical activity with higher learning,” says Margaret.Older people can develop their brains as well. Cornell University studied a group of seniors who have a short-term memory increase of up to 40 percent after exercising just three hours a week. The exercise does not have to be very difficult, but it does have to increase the heart rate. Also, just like the motion for babies, exercise for older people should not be too simple. Learning some new skills or actions, such as with yoga or tat- chi helps to open up memory paths in the brain that may not have been used for a long time. For most people, any type of physical activity that increases the heart rate is helpful. The main aim is to increase the brain’s flow of blood. And your brain can benefit from as little as two to three hours of exercise a week.12．What is the main idea of this passage?A．How exercise makes people strong.B．How to get good scores in a test.C．How exercise helps the brain develop.D．How the brain can change one’s memory.13．According to the passage, what is the connection between exercise and brain development?A．Exercise helps soften our blood vessels.B．Physical exercise helps us think better.C．The brain needs special mental exercise.D．The more exercise, the bigger the brain.14．For ordinary people, the smallest amount of exercise required to gain any benefit is ______. A．two hours per week B．40 hours per weekC．three hours per day D．40 hours per month15．Why is yoga suggested for seniors?A．It does good to the joints of old people.B．It does not increase the heart rate.C．It includes learning new actions.D．It can be done in groups.二、信息匹配How do you stay true to yourself when you’re surrounded by friends and / or family that have an opinion on everything you do? It’s not easy! 16．Here are 4 tips which can help you live a dynamic (充满活力的) life.17．Stay true to yourself by listening to the only opinions that really matter—your own and those from people who believe in and encourage you. Deep down you know yourself better than anybody else.Don’t fear people.18．The reason most people don’t take risks, or live on the edge is the fear of what others might think of them. If you want to live the life you truly deserve, you must give up the need to be liked by everybody.Value yourself and your choices.When you do, others will too. Own the choices you make in your life. 19．When you believe in yourself, in time, others will believe in you too. Show confidence in your choices, and what you stand for whether others agree or not.Focus on appreciation.No matter what the circumstances are, there is always something to be grateful for. All successful people ask, “What am I grateful for? How can I improve my situation and use thesetough times to inspire others?” 20．These steps, if applied, will help you transform your lifestyle and productivity. A．Focus on your own talents and strengths.B．Never let others’ opinions guide your choices.C．Treat every person equally as they are important.D．When you doubt yourself others will doubt you.E. Stay fearless in everything you will have to do.F. Be thankful to life and be helpful to others, and you’ll lead a successful life.G. However, there are great possibilities that you can lead the life you really want.三、完形填空His palms were sweating. He needed a towel to dry his grasp. The sun was as hot as the 21 he faced today at the National Junior Olympics. The bar (横竿) was set at 17 feet. That was three inches higher than his personal best.

It hasn't always been easy, but a year on I am wealthier and wiser. Embarrassingly, I have also realised just how much money I've squandered down the pubs in restaurants and through mindless shopping.Free of any financial worries, I was spending without thinking. Stuck in a cycle of consumerism, I was struggling in vain to spend my way to happiness. Giving up spending for a year was an extreme approach, but I wanted to taste extreme frugality, shake up my spending patterns and overpay my mortgage instead of shopping. I could continue to pay my bills, including mortgages, broadband(宽带), phone bill, charity donations, life insurances, money to help my family and basic groceries.It was not easy, especially in the first few months. There were lows, such as when I missed my favourite jazz concerts and hit films. There have also been some awkward moments when I've turned up to a friend's house for dinner empty-handed. I did a lot of washing up at my friends' houses in return this year.I did find new ways to live, however. Using sites such as Eventbrite I have been to film screenings, wine tasting evenings and theatre productions for free. Living in London I have awealth of free cultural activities on my doorstep and I've been to more art exhibitions this year than ever before. I even managed a free holiday, cycling theSuffolk and Norfolk coast and camping on beaches. It's something I'd never done before and probably wouldn't have, were it not for the challenge.The last 12 months have taught me what things I really need. I can honestly say I' m happier now. I've gained confidence and skills, done things and met lovely people I wouldn't have otherwise done or met.4．In the past the author wasted much money on the following EXCEPT . A．purposeless shopping B．basic groceriesC．restaurants D．pubs5．We can infer that the purpose of the author's no-spending challenge is to .A．try to form a virtue of frugality B．change her former spending habits C．pay off her mortgage as soon as possible D．reserve money for her everyday bills 6．What do we know about the author during her no-spending year?A．She did a lot of washing and cooking in pubs.B．She tried cycling and camping for the first time.C．She explored more cultural activities in London.D．She attended concerts and wine evenings for free.7．How does the author eventually feel about her no spending year?A．It's discouraging. B．It's challenging.C．It's beneficial. D．It's embarrassing.Like you and your pet dog, plants are living things: they eat, drink, and grow. Unlike you and your dog, they can't run away, use fists or teeth, or hide under the covers when they're threatened. But they can fight back.Why would a plant need to fight back? To avoid being eaten, of course! Plants have several ways of protecting themselves. A plant can grow in a hidden or hard-to-get-to place. Think of plants you've seen growing on steep, rocky cliff (悬崖). Or, a plant could make only some parts of itself attractive to hungry insects and animals. For instance, if a plant produced really tasty leaves, herbivores (creatures that eat only plants) might eat the leaves instead of the seeds, which the plant needs for making more plants. Some plants have sharp or slippery (滑的) parts that discourage insects and other animals from getting too close, like the thorns(刺) on arosebush.But the most interesting way that plants fight back is by using chemicals. Plants take minerals from the soil and combine them into chemicals that do a lot of work. For example, plants produce chlorophyll(叶绿素), which helps convert sunshine and water into the sugars that plants eat.They also produce chemicals to help protect themselves. One kind of tobacco plant releases a chemical into the air whenever small bugs begin to eat it. The chemical signals large bugs, saying "Dinner's ready!" The big bugs come to eat the little ones and save the plant.Most plants use chemicals in a more direct way against their enemies. In other words, plants make poison.8．What does the underlined word "convert" mean?A．Change B．SeparateC．Form D．Produce9．What do we know from the passage?A．Some plants hide under the covers when faced with threat.B．A plant grows in a hard-to-get-to place to draw people's attention.C．Some plants produce tasty leaves to protect their seeds.D．Plants produce chemicals to meet the needs of big bugs.10．What may be talked about following the last paragraph?A．Different effects that different plant poisons cause on plant eaters.B．Different kinds of plants in the world.C．Why plants make poison?D．How to protect plants?11．What would be the best title for the passage?A．Plant information. B．Plant enemies.C．Plant poisons. D．Plant protection.Clean drinking water is something we might take for granted at home, but not so for travelers. The epiphany moment for Samuel Ian Rosen came when he found himself at an airport selling out $ 5 for a bottle of Evian water.“Nobody up till now has built a digital map for drinking water,” Rosen, a serial entrepreneur(企业家), said in an interview. “Finding water is inconvenient. When I opened adigital map and typed ‘water fountain’, there wa s nothing. We solved it by building a digital map for water. We are a search engine. We tell you where the water is.”Beginning October 23, consumers in cities from New York and Los Angeles to Amsterdam and New Delhi will be able to download an app called “Tap” on their mobile phones that will help them find the closest free public drinking fountains and water bottle refill stations at places like airports. They can also refill(再装满) their bottles at over 34,000 cafes. Restaurants and other businesses-from Umami Burger and Shake Shack to Sweetgreen and Barry's Bootcamp-have signed on globally in the Tap's Refill Station network. Rosen said that number is rapidly growing.The app allows users to narrow their search by such criteria as whether the water is unfiltered(未过滤的) or flavored. There are also “water A TMS” where people will be able to purchase unpackaged water to refill their existing bottles.“We didn't have to wait to convince anyone to sign up,” Rosen who previously founded on-demand storage company Ma kespace, said. “It's similar to what corporations are doing with sustainability for the same right reason. We have brand ambassadors as young as 10 signing up local businesses. This is a movement.”12．An “epiphany moment” is when you .A．experience something funny B．are about to make a bad deal C．come up with a bright idea D．are mad at something unfair13．Why did Rosen build “Tap”?A．To stop water waste. B．To advertise some businesses.C．To compete with digital map companies. D．To make free drinking water accessible. 14．What can people do at “water ATMS”?A．Filter(过滤) water. B．Buy clean water.C．Donate water bottles. D．Store water for the poor.15．What feeling is expressed in Rosen's words in the last paragraph?A．Confidence. B．Indifference. C．Sympathy. D．Relief.二、七选五Four Habits to Help You SucceedNobody would like to experience failure. We all want to succeed. For those who have tried and failed, success seems difficult to understand. 16．•Know your values.Finding your values is in line with creating motivation. 17．Pick a handful of things and write them down. Remind yourself of your values every day and reflect on whether you are honoring those values through your work.•Pick a goal and focus on it.Choose one goal to start something large enough that will give you a sense of achievement, while adjusting well to your values. If you want to achieve your goal, focus is the key here. 18．If you perform many tasks at a time, you might never finish your projects because they will take far too long.•Set a time for success.Set a date for success. Know when you hope to realize your goal. 19．By setting a time limit, you are making the process realistic.• 20．Failure can’t be avoided when you take risks.

Treat it as a good thing, and go on.A．Make the right decision.B．The more focused you are on one goal, the higher chance you have of success.C．I have made a list of four habits to help you set goals and realize them.D．Keep it realistic, while not giving yourself too much time.E.Don’t give up because of failure.F.Sit and reflect on what you value most.G.Push yourself to be courageous, and take that next step.三、完形填空I have always been a stickler(非常看重……的人) for equality. Therefore, I was21 of the sort of friendship where you give with nothing in 22 , and the other person feels much bigger than you are. I don't know 23 exactly it started, but for as long as I remember, I have felt self-conscious about the 24 within myfriendships. I constantly worry that I 25 my friends more than they do. When the scale(秤) tips to one side in my relationships, I feel myself start to fall over too, like a branch hanging off the edge of a cliff.When I entered high school, I made friends who gave 26 and willingly: advice, knowledge, and 27 . Even if they gave more than they received, they did so with a28 . I slowly began to realize that some people were worth the inequality, and that some things could be 29 in other ways or at a later time. Kindness is a(n) 30 that you receive back from the ones you give it to. My friend Alicia always 31 to help others with their work and assignments, which made me and all the other 32 of her kindness 33 to help her if she ever need anything in the future. It wasn't an exactly equal way of repaying her, but it was our own small way of saying thank you.Today，I still 34 maintaining(维持) equality in my life.
