阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。

Following the crowd may not always be in a person's best interest.But new research suggests that teens who get along with their friends may end up healthier as adults.Scientists have known that close friendships help boost health.That's true for both teens and adults.The finding inspired Joseph Allen，a psychologist at the University of Virginia，and his team to study whether experiences during teen years would influence adult health.So they followed 171 teens，starting when the kids were just 13.They interviewed each one every year for five years，and also spoke to these teens' closest friends，who provided additional information about the quality of their friendships.The same 171 people were interviewed again at ages 25,26 and 27.This time, the questions surveyed each person's overall health.When the researchers analyzed the data，they found a strong connection between a teen's behavior and adult health.Teens who had close friends grew up to be the healthier adults.Whether teens held back their feelings or expressed them to close friends also influenced later health.Those who held back their feelings were more likely to be sick as adults.The connection held up even after the scientists accounted for other possible influences on health.Weight，family income and drug use were all examined.So were mental health issues，such as anxiety and depression.And in these people，such other factors did not explain adult health as well as teen friendships did.Getting along with the crowd may have benefits，says Allen，but there are also drawbacks.Teens who are more independent tend to do better at school and work.And peer pressure may lead some kids to engage in risky behavior，such as smoking，drinking or using drugs.Dealing with it is an ongoing challenge，Allen acknowledges.“Finding the right balance is the key.Teens shouldn't lose heart for not finding this easy.”And，he adds，“Parents need to be understanding about the pressures teens face.”1．Where can you probably read this passage?A．Science fiction.B．Health column.C．Fashion magazine.D．Entertainment newspaper.2．We can learn from Allen's study that ________.A．many other factors have a greater influence on adult health than teen friendships B．mental health issues have nothing to do with adult healthC．the same 171 teens were interviewed each year from 13 to 27D．the teens who couldn't express themselves grew up to be unhealthy3．According to what Allen said，we can know that ________.A．in order to do better at school，teens should not follow the crowdB．though it's challenging for teens to deal with peer pressure，they should not give upC．teens will engage in smoking，drinking or using drugs when facing peer pressure D．parents should understand their teens and stop them going with friends4．What can be inferred from the passage?A．There is nothing bad for teens to follow the crowd.B．Close friendships are the most important for people's health.C．Teen friendships may help teens become healthier adults.D．Adult health is only influenced by teen friendships.【解题导语】研究表明，与朋友较少或者没有朋友的青少年相比，有朋友的青少年在长大后更健康。

入舵市安恙阳光实验学校Unit 2 Language 课时练1 2篇阅读＋1篇完形Ⅰ阅读理解A(2020·安徽五校质检)Gabriella’s family immigrated to the US from Peru when she was two years old. As a compound bilingual(熟谙两种语言的人), Gabriella develops two linguistic codes at the same time, with a set of concepts, learning both English and Spanish. Her teenage brother, on the other hand, might be a coordinate bilingual, working with two sets of concepts, learning English in school, Spanish at home. Finally, Gabriella’s parents are likely to be subordinate bilinguals who learned a second language by translating it into their mother tongue.Regardless of accent and pronunciation, all types of bilingual people can become fully proficient in a language. It seems that the difference may not be apparent. But recently brain imaging technology has given a glimpse into how specific aspects of language learning affect the bilingual brain. It’s well known that the brain’s left hemisphere(半球) is in charge of logical processes, while the right hemisphere is more active in emotional and social ones. Language involves both types of functions. Critical period hypothesis says children learn languages more easily because their developing brains let them use both hemispheres in language learning, while in most adults, language relies on one hemisphere, usually the left.Before the 1960s, bilingualism was considered a handicap that slowed the children’s development by forcing them to spend too much energy distinguishing between languages. But a recent study did show that bilingualism may make you smarter. It does make your brain more complex, healthier, and more actively engaged, and even if you didn’t have the good fortune of learning a second language like a child, it’s never too late to do yourself a fa vor and make the linguistic leap from “Hello” to “Hola” “Bonjour” or “nihao” because when it comes to our brains, a little exercise can go a long way.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文。

A. possible B.special C.good D. safePart three:阅读理解 AVicious and Dangerous Sports Should be Banned by LawWhen you think of the tremendous technological progress we have made, it’s amazing how little we have developed in other respects. We may speak contemptuously of the poor old Romans because they relished the orgies of slaughter that went on in their arenas. We may despise them because they mistook these goings on for entertainment. We may forgive them condescendingly because they lived 2000 years ago and obviously knew no better. But are our feelings of superiority really justified? Are we any less blood-thirsty? Why do boxing matches, for instance, attract such universal in terest? Don’t the spectators who attend them hope they will see some violence? Human beings remains as bloodthirsty as ever they were. The only difference between ourselves and the Romans is that while they were honest enough to admit that they enjoyed watching hungey lions tearing people apart and eating them alive, we find all sorts of sophisticated arguments to defend sports which should have been banned long age; sports which are quite as barbarous as, say, public hangingsor bearbaiting.It really is incredible that in this day and age we should still allow hunting or bull-fighting, that we should be prepared to sit back and watch two men batter each other to pulp in a boxing ring, that we should be relatively unmoved by the sight of one or a number of racing cars crashing and bursting into flames. Let us not deceive ourselves. Any talk of ‘the sporting spirit’ is sheer hypocrisy. People take part in violent sports because of the high rewards they bring. Spectators are willing to pay vast sums of money to see violence. A world heavyweight championship match, for instance, is front page news. Millions of people are disappointed if a big fight is over in two rounds instead of fifteen. They feel disappointment because they have been deprived of the exquisite pleasure of witnessing prolonged torture and violence.Why should we ban violent sports if people enjoy them so much? You may well ask. The answer is simple: they are uncivilized. For centuries man has been trying to improve himself spiritually and emotionally –admittedly with little success. But at least we no longer tolerate the sight madmen cooped up in cages, or public floggings of any of the countless other barbaric practices which were common in the past. Prisons are no longer the grim forbidding places they used to be. Social welfare systems are in operation in many parts of the world. Big efforts are being made to distribute wealth fairly. These changes have come about not because human beings have suddenly and unaccountably improved, but because positive steps were taken to change the law. The law is the biggest instrument of social change that we have and it may exert great civilizing influence. If we banned dangerous and violent sports, we would be moving one step further to improving mankind. We would recognize that violence is degrading and unworthy of human beings.46.It can be inferred from the passage that the author’s opinion of nowadays’ human beings isA. not very high.B. high.C. contemptuous.D. critical.47.The main idea of this passage isA. vicious and dangerous sports should be banned by law.B. people are willing to pay vast sums money to see violence.C. to compare two different attitudes towards dangerous sports.D. people are bloodthirsty in sports.48.That the author mentions the old Romans isA. To compare the old Romans with today’s people.B. to give an example.C. to show human beings in the past know nothing better.D. to indicate human beings are used to bloodthirsty.49.How many dangerous sports does the author mention in this passage?A. Three.B. Five.C. Six.D. Seven.50.The purpose of the author in writing this passage isA. that, by banning the violent sports, we human beings can improve our selves.B. that, by banning the dangerous sports, we can improve the law.C. that we must take positive steps to improve social welfare system.D. to show law is the main instrument of social change.B篇Advertisers Perform a Useful Service to the CommunityAdvertisers tend to think big and perhaps this is why they’re always coming in for criticism. Their critics seem to resent them because they have a flair for self-promotion and because they have so much money to throw around. ‘It’s iniquitous,’ they say, ‘that this entirely unproductive industry (if we can call it that) should absorb millions of pounds each year. It only goes to show how much profit the big companies are making. Why don’t they stop advertising and reduce the price of their goods? After all, it’s the consumer who pays…’w*w*w*k*s*5*u*c*o*m The poor old consumer! He’d have to pay a great deal more if advertising didn’t create mass markets for products. It is precisely because of the heavy advertising that consumer goods are so cheap. But we get the wrong idea if we think the only purpose of advertising is to sell goods. Another equally important function is to inform. A great deal of the knowledge we have about household goods derives largely from the advertisements we read. Advertisements introduce us to new products or remind us of the existence of ones we already know about. Supposing you wanted to buy a washing machine, it is more than likely you would obtain details regarding performance, price, etc., from an advertisement.Lots of people pretend that they never read advertisements, but this claim may be seriously doubted. It is hardly possible not to read advertisements these days. And what fun they often are, too! Just think what a railway station or a newspaper would be like without advertisements. Would you enjoy gazing at a blank wall or reading railway byelaws while waiting for a train? Would you like to read only closely printed columns of news in your daily paper? A cheerful, witty advertisement makes such a difference to a drab wall or a newspaper full of the daily ration of calamities.We must not forget, either, that advertising makes a positive contribution to our pockets. Newspapers, commercial radio and television companies could not subsist without this source of revenue. The fact that we pay so little for our daily paper, or can enjoy so many broadcast programmes is due entirely to the money spent by advertisers. Just think what a newspaper would cost if we had to pay its full price!Another thing we mustn’t forget is the ‘small ads.’ which are in virtually every newspaper and magazine. What a tremendously usefulservice they perform for the community! Just about anything can be accomplished through these columns. For instance, you can find a job, buy or sell a house, announce a birth, marriage or death in what used to be called the ‘hatch, match and dispatch’ column but by far the most fascinating section is the personal or ‘agony’ column. No other item in a newspaper provides such entertaining reading or offers such a deep in sight into human nature. It’s the best advertisement for advertising there is!51.What is main idea of this passage?A. Advertisement.B. The benefits of advertisement.C. Advertisers perform a useful service to communities.D. The costs of advertisement.52.The attitude of the author toward advertisers isA. appreciative.B. trustworthy.C. critical.D. dissatisfactory.53.Why do the critics criticize advertisers?A. Because advertisers often brag.B. Because critics think advertisem ent is a “waste of money”.C. Because customers are encouraged to buy more than necessary.D. Because customers pay more.54.Which of the following is Not True?A. Advertisement makes contribution to our pockets and we may know everything.B. We can buy what we want.C. Good quality products don’t need to be advertised.D. Advertisement makes our life colorful.55.The passage isA. Narration.B. Description.C. Criticism.D.

Study shows we __1__ use a single skill when communicating, so it makes sense to __2__ more than one skill at a time.There are several advantages for using an integrated approach. Not only are learners given the chance to interact in a __3__ way, but learners are also exposed to the richness and complexity(复杂性)of the language. __4__， with a separated approach, it is difficult to use language in a meaningful way. For __5__， when students practise only one skill at a time, such as speaking, it is meaningless, because they can not concentrate on just speaking while they are __6__ communicating.Another advantage to using an integrated approach is that students are more likely to be __7__ to learn a language if they are able to use it to interact, rather than to just have knowledge about the language. In this approach, language is treated as a __8__ of interaction, rather than an academic subject.A third advantage of an integrated approach is that skill integration allows for __9__ in all main skills at the same time, which allows students to be able to use their strengths in order to help them grow in their weaknesses. In other __10__，if a student is particularly __11__ at reading, they may be able to use this skill to help them with listening or writing.An integrated skills approach is obviously a more realistic approach to language learning, while a separated approach does not __12__ a meaningful understanding of language. Nor does it seem to be a motivating style to learning a foreign language.1. A. often B. frequentlyC. urgentlyD. rarely2. A. focus on B. depend onC. live onD. insist on3. A. wonderful B. meaningfulC. cheerfulD. powerful4. A. Therefore B. SomehowC. HoweverD. Besides5. A. instance B. funC. goodD. entertainment6. A. especially B. actuallyC. speciallyD. eventually7.

Many proverbs give advice about the best way to live.Recently, we asked our listeners to send us 1.__________ favorite proverbs. The top proverb among these listeners is this one: “Where there is a will, there is a way.” This means that you can rise above your problems 2.__________ you have a goal and work very hard. Ano ther favorite proverb was, “God helps those 3.__________ help themselves.”Xu Daju from China wrote that his country has thousands of proverbs. Several of them are 4.__________ used in the United States. One example is “Birds of a feather flock together.” This means that people who are 5.__________ often become friends or spend time together. Another proverb is “Blood is thicker 6.__________ water.” This means family ties are stronger than other relationships.Wafaa from Egypt says her favorite proverb is, “Think twice, act wise.” She also says she is making 7.__________ effort to use this saying in her life. Another one is “Your defeat now is your victory in the future，” meaning you can learn 8.__________ your mistakes. Ⅲ.阅读理解Babies don't learn to talk just from hearing sounds. New research suggests they're lipreaders too.Florida scientists discovered that starting around age 6 months, babies begin shifting from the eye gaze(注视)to studying mouths when people talk to them.“In order to imitate you, the baby has to figure out how to shape their lips to make that particular sound they're hearing，” explains psychologist David Lewkowicz of Florida Atlantic University, who led the study. “It's an incredibly complex process.”Apparently it doesn't take them too long to absorb the movements that match basic sounds. By their first birthdays, babies start shifting back to look you in the eye again — unless they hear the unfamiliar sounds of a foreign language. Then, they stick with lipreading a bit longer.In the experiment, David Lewkowicz tested nearly 180 babies, groups of them at ages 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 months.How? They showed videos of a woman speaking in English or Spanish to babies of English speakers. A device tracked where each baby was focusing his or her gaze and recorded how long the gaze lasted.They found a dramatic shift in attention: When the speaker used English, the 4montholds gazed mostly into her eyes. The6montholds spent equal amounts of time looking at the eyes and the mouth. The 8 and 10montholds studied mostly the mouth. At 12 months, attention started shifting back toward the speaker's eyes.It makes sense that at 6 months, babies begin observing lip movement, Lewkowicz says, because that's about the time babies' brains gain the ability to control their attention rather than automatically look toward noise.But what happened when these babies used to English heard Spanish? The12montholds studie d the mouth longer, just like younger babies. They needed the extra information to decipher (破译)the unfamiliar sounds.“It's a pretty interesting finding，” says University of Iowa psychology professor Bob McMurray, who also studies baby speech development. The babies “know what they need to know about, and they're able to draw their attention to what's important at that point in language development.”1. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A. Babies Learn to Talk from Hearing SoundsB. Babies Learn to Talk by Reading LipsC. How Babies Learn Language after BirthD. Babies Can Understand a Foreign Language2. When an adult talks to a 5monthold baby, the baby usually ______.A. looks the adult into the eyesB. watches the adult's lipC. studies the adult's facial expressionsD. feels very excited3. Babies start to focus their attention on eyes of speakers again when they are nearly ______.A. 7 months oldB. 8 months oldC. 12 months oldD. 20 months old4. When babies are half one year old, what can they do?A. They can control their attention.B. They can recognize human faces.C. They can play with toys.D. They can tell parents from others.5. We can infer that David Lewkowicz ______.A. did the experiment on his ownB. teaches Spanish at Florida Atlantic UniversityC. invited a woman to speak English to babiesD. studies baby speech developmentⅣ.阅读填空(每空不超过三个单词)Need some tips on learning English? We have some great ones for you this time and we're sure they will help you to learn English more easily and with more fun!(1)Find something interesting about your English study. Why not watch your favourite film in English? You could also read the lyrics (歌词) of pop songs, or check out celebrity sites (名人网站) and learn more about your favorite basketball or football players.(2)Read English texts as often as you can. This could be news, short stories or novels. Choose an interesting text that is not too difficult for you. Don't look up every new word — even without a dictionary you will understand a lot if you are interested in the topic. If you are a football fan, you won't have problems understanding an English article about football.Also watch the news in Chinese and find English news about the same topics. Even if you don't understand every word in English, you will understand it as you already know what the text is about.(3)Choose your favourite movie. Have paper and pen ready as you may want to write down useful words or phrases. Listening to your favourite English songs is another cool way. Read first and find out what the song is about. Pick some words or phrases that you would like to learn. A dictionary may also be useful.(4)With your friends, you can repeat your English vocabulary, do your homework and help each other with English grammar. Maybe your friends have a better way ofstudying. Or, maybe you can give them cool advice!(5)Set a target for each week or each month and give a reward for yourself if you can achieve it. For example, you can write: If I can do that, I will play my favorite computer games for half an hour; buy my favorite snack (Harry Potter books, etc.);Unit 2Ⅰ.1. D 考查名词性从句。

B．Strict.C．Wise. D．Hardworking.B(2015·长沙高三模拟)Schools are taking exam anxiety more seriously now because tests have become very important in determining their performance under the federal No Child Left Behind law.Research suggests that students do better when they’re relaxed and in a good mood.Craft was one of about 800 10th－graders around the country who participated last year in the study by the California－based Institute of HeartMath.It found that 55% of 10th－graders often had high levels of test anxiety and their scores were lower than those of students who used the company’s techniques to improve relaxation and mood.This year states must start testing children on math and reading in Grade 3 through 8 under the federal No Child Left Behind Act，which also requires that students take a science test at least once in elementary，middle and high school by 2013—2014.Bowers is director of counseling for Tucson Unified School District，where some schools use a program called Brain Gym.The program teaches children to take deep breathing exercises to relax and focus on good memories using a series of movements also designed to improve blood flow to the brain.The idea of programs like HeartMath and Brain Gym is to get participants’minds working efficiently.“It has worked well at East Side Charter School in Willington，Delaware.Once they started using HeartMath，many children at the K－7 school have been able to reduce exam solicitude，as a result，math and reading score improved.”said Bowers.“They are taught to be in a pleasant place...to breathe deeply and slowly.And，close their eyes and imagine something they love like going with their grandfather to the ice cream store.”Payyon says.The HeartMath Institute also suggests getting at least eight hours of sleep the night before a test and having a healthy breakfast that morning.6．What does the underlined word“solicitude”in the fifth paragraphprobably mean?A．Chances. B．Anxiety.C．Grades. D．Content.7．What relaxation techniques should we take to lower exam anxiety?A．Taking deep breathing and recalling movement exercises.B．Getting students’ minds working efficiently by more tests.C．Advising students to get more sleep before a test.D．Making students take a test in a pleasant place.8．What’s American schools’ main purpose to introduce relaxation techniques?A．To make an advertisement for a company.B．To introduce a program called Brain Gym.C．To improve the students’ test scores.D．To reduce examination anxiety of students.9．What does the underlined word“It”in Paragraph 2 refer to?A．The Institute. B．The country.C．The study. D．Craft.10．According to the passage，Bowers’attitude towards t he programs is________.A．skeptical B．neutralC．casual D．supportiveⅤ.阅读填空(2015·长沙实验中学高三月考) Africans see many advantages by uniting the continent into a single nation，or by uniting several small nations of a particular region into a nation.In unity there is strength.Africans often point to the United States，formed by the original 13 states，as an example of this principle.Africa now is divided into many weak nations.United，they would be much stronger.Africans could then more easily deal with foreign efforts to control them.Also it would be easier to plan and carry out big projects like the building of highways and dams.The considerations for African unity go beyond the practical advantages it brings.As we have seen，one factor is that the feeling of belonging to a particular nation is not strong among Africans.If，for example，you were to ask a man from Paris“What are you？”，he would certainly answer “A Frenchman”．Ask the same question of a man from Ibadan in Nigeria and he might give one of three answers，or all three，depending on his education and outlook.He might say，“A Yoruba”(his people)，or “A Nigerian”，or just simply “An African”．Another factor that enters into the desire for unity is that African leaders throughout the continent feel that they all have many things in common.They all lived through the experience of colonial rule.Many of them went to school and university with men who now lead other African countries.They all feel very angry about the way in which they weretreated in the pared with these strong bonds (结合)，which overshadow the borders of nations，the idea of building separate nations does not have so much meaning.Some leaders say they are ready，in fact，to give up their separate nations.Many nations have written into their constitutions(宪法)，and they may give up their powers to a Pan－African government that will come into being.Ⅵ.阅读简答(2015·益阳箴言中学模拟)Pollution is a growing problem that is facing the international community, but even the actions that we take can make a difference. Littering is creating environmental problems all over the world and is often created by careless actions. If we guard our actions against careless littering we can ensure a better world for everyone.Littering is a severe problem in many countries around the world. For example, the African city of Kampala is suffering from the consequences of littering. For many years the city’s poor didn’t have a proper way to dispose of trash, so garbage filled the streets. Over the years much of the plastic garbage would slowly be pushed into the ground. This plastic li tter doesn’t allow rain water to seep(渗透) into the ground and has caused flooding. In many of Kampala’s poor neighborhoods whenever it rains people’s homes become flooded with water. This water is often dirty and has allowed diseases to spread. This flooding has become so bad that the Ugandan government has banned plastic bags in the entire country to stop the littering.Trash often finds its way into the water.
