I was lucky to have an interview with a famous international bank after graduation. I really appreciated this chance. So I spent a lot of time preparing very carefully. I prepared for all the possible questions ahead. As a result, I got the job. While my classmates were still struggling to get a job, I had succeeded in getting one, which made me feel very proud of myself.After one month of hard training, today was my first day at work to show the results of the training. I got up as usual, but I decided to skip doing exercise as I did not want to take the risk of arriving at the office late on my first day. I went through my morning routine and spent a lot of time deciding what to wear. I definitely wanted to make a great impression right from the start. Finally, I settled on the white suit with a tie.I waved to say goodbye to my mother and set off cheerfully towards the bus stop. But I saw a bus leaving the stop just as I turned around the corner. Now I would have to wait for another 15 minutes, even though time was very precious. I stood there patiently.15 minutes passed and then 30minutes, and there was no sign of the bus, Now what could I do? I had to reach the office on time. I saw a motorcycle approaching, but as I tried to stop it, the driver sped on without even a glance. It was then that a car stopped near me and a man waved to me. He said, "Aren't you working at the bank at Nariman Point? My office is in the same building. Can I give you a ride?”I was uncertain at first but then forced myself to get in as I was going to be late. Gradually, I realized that we were not on the familiar route to my office. I asked the man to stop the car, but he did not listen to me and told me to shut up.注意: 1.续写词数应为150 左右；2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

I enjoy life because I am endlessly interested in people and their growth． My interest leads me to widen my knowledge of people, and this in turn makes me believe in the common goodness of mankind．I believe that the normal human heart is good since their birth．That is it's born sensitive and feeling eager to be approved and to approve, hungry for simple happiness and the chance to live．Like Confucius, I am absorbed in the wonder of the earth, and the life on it． With a great faith in the human heart and its power to grow toward the light．I find here are reasons enough for hope and confidence in the future of mankind．The common sense of people will surely prove that mutual（相互的）support and cooperation are only sensible for the security and happiness of all． Such faith keeps me continually ready to do what one person can toward shaping the environment in which the human being can grow with freedom．This environment, I believe, is based upon the necessity for security and friendship．I take heart in a promising fact that the future world will contain food supplies enough for the entire earth population． Our knowledge of medical science will be sufficient to improve the health of the whole human race．Our resources and education, if administered on a world scale, will lift the intelligence of the race．Half a century ago, few people thought of world food, health and education． Many are thinking today of these things．Now I find my only questions about this: Are there enough people now who believe?

You may not pay much attention to your daily elevator ride．Many of us use a lift several times during a day without really thinking about it．But Lee Gray, PhD, of the University of North Carolina, US, has made it his business to examine this overlooked form of public transport．He is known as the "Elevator Guy"．"The lift becomes an interesting social space where etiquette（礼仪）is sort of strange．" Gray told the BBC．"They are socially very interesting but often very awkward places．"We walk in and usually turn around to face the door．If someone else comes in, we may have to move．And here, according to Gray, lift﹣users unthinkingly go through a set pattern of movements．He told the BEC what he had observed．He explained that when you are the only one inside a lift, you can do whatever you want﹣it's your own little box． If there are two of you, you go into different corners, standingdiagonally（对角线地）across from each other to create distance．Newcomers to the lift will need to size up the situation when the doors slide open and then act quickly．Once in, for most people the rule is simple﹣look down, or look at your phone． Why are we so awkward in lifts? "You don't have enough space, " Professor Babette Renneberg, a clinical psychologist at the Free University of Berlin, told the BBC．"Usually when we meet other people, we have about an arm's length of distance between us．And that's not possible in most elevators．"In such a small, enclosed space it becomes very important to act in a way that cannot be considered to be threatening or strange．"The easiest way do this is avoid eye contact, " she said．（1）What is people's response to the lift etiquette according to Gray？________A Thinking much of it．B Avoiding it on purpose．C Ignoring it unconsciously．D Researching it continuously．．（2）What does Gray think of riding a lift？________A It's a funny and quick．B It's strange and dangerous．C It's convenient but boring．D It's interesting but awkward．．（3）What may most people do if they stay in the lift？________A Talk loudly to each other．B Use mobile phones．C Keep still and silence．D Keep a close distance．．（4）What's the author's purpose in writing the text？________A To show how to ride elevators．B To show how to break awkwardness of riding lifts．C To introduce some rules of elevator etiquette．D To analyze the reasons for keeping elevator etiquette．4. A new paper published in Environmental Research Letters has some warning news for people living in the lower 48 states: You may be at risk from river flooding and not even know it until the water starts to rise．In fact, the study, estimates of present and future flood risk in the United States, found that 41 million U．S．residents are at risk from flooding along rivers．That's three times more than current estimates based on the flood maps produced by the Federal Emergency Management Agency（FEMA）, which primarily maps the areas at risk for 1﹣in﹣100﹣year floods in populous（人口众多的）river basins．Why does the big difference come into being? As always, it's all about the data．Generally, FEMA prioritizes risk﹣assessment areas based on theirpopulation: reserving expensive field﹣work methodologies（研究方法）for the more populous river basins, but many other rivers have not yet been mapped at all．The size of the USA means that flood maps made in this way are incomplete．It would be too expensive and time﹣consuming to survey every river basin in America．The national﹣scale flood maps produced by FEMA leave the flood risk of many parts of the country unaccounted for．For this research, scientists from The Nature Conservancy adopted a pioneeringmethodology that avoids the ________ of the FEMA approach, where individual catchments（流域）are studied by making use of big data．The study used a new high﹣resolution model, produced by the flood﹣mapping organization Fathorn, which copies floods on all rivers across the entire continental United States．"We were all surprised by now many people are actually exposed to freshwater flooding in the USA．" said Oliver wing, lead researcher on the study and a PhD student at the University of Bristol．"It's particularly worrisome considering that most of these people aren't even aware of the risk they face．This study helps fill that critical information gap．"（1）What did the new paper intend to tell readers？________A B The serious situation of the flood C The unseen risk of the flood in theUSA D The populous river basins of the US（2）Why is the map produced by EMA incomplete？________A It ignores less populous rivers．B The size of the USA is too big．C The efficiency of making it is low．D It's dangerous to research all the rivers．．（3）What does the underlined word "defects" in paragraph 5 mean？________A Contributions．B Potential．C Consumption．D Shortcomings．．（4）What attitude does Oliver Wing have to the study？________A Critical．B Supportive．C Cautious．D Uncaring．第二节（共1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．选项中有两项为多余选项．5.The Health Benefits of GardeningGardening is popular in many parts of the world This outdoor activity gives us beautiful plants，pleasant smelling flowers and fresh fruits and vegetables．But it also gives us many health benefits．（1）_______Gardening connects people．When you are gardening，you are outdoors．So it is a perfect time to socialize with your neighbors．Gardening can greatly widen a person's community． Some people may not have the resources to have their own gardens．So，many cities and towns have community gardens．You can either volunteer or just visit to learn more．（2）_______Gardening is a great activity to do with children．It gets families outdoors and off computers，televisions and other electronics．Gardening can be a great teacher．Children can learn about nature and wildlife．Gardening can teach a child about where food comes from and healthy eating．Getting Vitamin DWhen you are in your garden．you might feel the sunshine on your skin．This means youare getting Vitamin D．Vitamin D helps your bodies use calcium（钙）．（3）_______．Vitamin D also helps you fight diseases．Doing more exerciseAlso，when you garden．you must move around． All the different movements needed for gardening bending，twisting，stretching and lifting﹣work small muscles in the body．（4）_______．Reducing stress（5）_______．A study by the Netherlands found that gardening may reduce the stress hormone cortisol（激素皮质）in the brain．Scientists say that high levels of cortisol in the body interfere（干扰）with learning and memory．It can also increase a person's weight，blood pressure and cholesterol levelsA．Reducing lonelinessB．Getting along with childrenC．That is necessary to keep bones strongD．Gardening may help you stay energeticE．Gardening may also help you to feel calm and happyE．What you grow in a garden usually looks，smells，feels and tastes really goodG．And you can easily get a good workout when you are digging holes or pulling weeds第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分15分）第一节（共15 小题；每小题15分，满分15分）阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C.D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项．6.

Keep in mind that some camping equipment is heavy. Invest in a light-weight tent,and light-weight inflatable pads(充气垫）for under your sleeping bag.Dehydrated food also helps keep the weight down.If you're going to be traveling on trails at all,you'll want to ride a mountain bike during your trip.On the other hand,if your whole route is wholly along roads,you can ride a lighter-weight street bike.Or,you can putheavier-weight tires on a street bike.___19___Biking is a great way to see the country,and if you have a lot of time,you can cover quite a bit of distance.Over the course of a multi- week trip,you'll get stronger and you'll be able to go further in one day.___20___ If your trip is a long one,you might want to rest a day or two early in your travels to give your body some rest.A. An easy way to travel is to camp along the way.B. Check in with your local bike shop for suggestions on tire weight.C. Taking a bike trip is not only convenient but also beneficial to our health.D.

Hearing the screams, Henry ran to the riverside, threw off his clothes and jumped into the water without hesitation. He reached Robert just as he was sinking the last time. By great effort, and with much danger to himself, he brought Robert to the shore.Thus, Robert’s life was saved. Robert and his new friends were ashamed of having called Henry a coward. They realized that Henry had true courage. They said sorry to Henry for their rude behavior and asked for his forgiveness. Henry forgave them happily. He and Robert were friends again and they went home together as usual. From this, Robert learned what true courage was: never be afraid to do good, but always fear to do evil.。

2019-2020学年江苏丹阳高级中学高三英语下学期期末试题及答案第一部分阅读（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项ALast summer, Katie Steller pulled off the freeway on her way to work inMinneapolis. She stopped at a traffic light, where a man was sitting with a sign asking for help. She rolled down her window and shouted. “Hey. I’m driving around giving free haircuts. Do you want one right now?” The man laughed, then paused. “Actually,” he said, “I was really hoping to get a haircut.” Steller pulled out a red chair from her car and helped the man cut his hair immediately. After the work was done, the man looked in a mirror. “I look good!” he said.Up to now, Steller has given 30 or so such haircuts around the city to people with little influence, and she is strongly aware of the power of her cleanup job.As a teen, she suffered from a severe disease, causing her hair to get thinned, so her mother arranged for Steller’s first professional haircut. “To sit down and have somebody look at me and talk to me like a person and not just an illness, it helped me feel cared about and less alone,” she says. After that, Steller knew she wanted to have her own barbershop so she could help people feel the way she’d felt that day. Not long after finishing cosmetology (美容术) school in 2009, she began what she now calls her Red Chair Project, reaching out to people on the streets. Her aim was that by doing some kind acts, others would be inspired to spread their own.“Part of what broke my heart was just how lonely peoplelooked,” she said. “I thought maybe I’d go around and ask if people want free haircuts. I can’t fix their problems, but maybe I can help them feel less alone for a moment.”It all began with a belief in simple acts of kindness, such as a free haircut. “The way you show up in the world matters,” said Steller. “You have no idea what people are going to do with the kindness that you give them.”1. How does the writer begin the passage?A. By making a comparison.B. By giving a reason.C. By raising a question.D. By describing a scene.2. What made Stellar start the Red Chair Project?A. Her mother’s love for her.B. Her interest in cosmetology.C. Her care for those in need.D. Her wish to fight severe diseases.3. What did Stellar expect from the project?A. To spread kindness.B. To solve social problems.C. To deal with relationships.D. To make people look smarter.BContrary to the long-held belief that plants in the natural world are always in competition, new research has found that in severe environments adult plants help smaller ones and grow well as a result.The research, led by Dr Rocio, studied adult and seedling (幼苗)plants in the ecological desert in the south-east of Spain. Dr Rocio said, “If you're a seedling in a poor land — the top of a mountain or a sand hill, for example-and you’re lucky enough to end up underneath a big plant, your chances of survival are certainly better than if you landed somewhere on your own. What we have found, which was surprising, is an established large plant, called a ‘nurse’, protects a seedling; it also produces more flowers than the same plants of similar large size growing on their own.”Other benefits of nurse-seedling partnerships include that more variety of plants growing together can have a positive effect on the environment. For example, vegetation areas with nurse plants with more flowers might be able to attract higher numbers of pollinators(传粉者)in an area, in turn supporting insect and soil life and even provide a greater range of different fruit types for birds and other animals.“The biggest winner for this system of nursing a plant is biodiversity(生物多样性),” Dr Rocio said. “The more biodiversean area, the greater number of species of plants, insect life, mammals and birds, and the better the chances of long-term healthy functioning of the environment and ecosystems. ” This system is win-win for adult and seedling plants in unfavorable environments.The research is of value to those who manage and protect plants in tough environments. Most home gardeners and farmers plan to ensure their soil and conditions are the best they can be for plant growth, but the findings might be of value to those who garden in bare places.4. What is a common understanding of plants?A. They can help each other.B. They can survive ill conditions.C. They compete with each other.D. They grow well on their own.5. What will happen to seedling plants if they grow under adult plants?A. They will produce more flowers.B. They will die owing to competition.C. They will make adult plants larger.D. They will get support from adult plants.6. What is the effect of the nurse-seedling partnership?A. It leads to unfavorable environments.B. It produces long-term healthy chances.C. It attracts higher and larger pollinators.D It provides a more variety of plant types.7. Who will benefit from the new research?A. People studying organic farming.B. People protecting plants on sand hills.C. People wanting to change biodiversity.D. People keeping more animals on the farm.CGrowing up as kids we are told to share our toys and notto be selfish. We also live in an age when discussing our feelings is encouraged. But when does it all become too much? With new crazes trending all the time, such as dance challenges and wearing a carpet as a dress, the question is: when can sharing become oversharing on social media?“Oversharing” has become associated with social media, but it isn'texclusiveto this platform. Imagine you head to a party and meet x k w someone. Within five minutes they have revealed private details about their life. While some of us may try to escape these people, according to marriage advisor Carolyn Cole, this form of oversharing could come from a strong desire to connect with someone. But how does this translate to social media?Dr. Christopher Hand, a lecturer in cyberpsychology (网络心理学），says the more details people disclose, the less sympathy we express when things go wrong. It seems that searching for sympathy by oversharing is generally considered as negative rather than the cry for help it could really be.However, Dr. Hand's research also seems to suggest that the more we post on a platform, the more socially attractive we become-provided that the posts that we bang out are positive. Even back in 2015, Gwendolyn Seidman PhD said that we should avoid complaining and being negative online. We should also avoid showing off, especially about our love lives. It makes sense-if your date is going “that well", would you really have time to share a photo with text?So, how can you know if you are oversharing? Well, why not ask your friends in real life. They would probably be happy to tell you if your posts about your breakfast or your complaints about your lack of money really are too much.8. What does the underlined word “exclusive" in paragraph 2 mean?A. Unique.B. Similar.C. Relevant.D. Fundamental.9. Why do some people prefer oversharing at parties?A. To draw others' attention.B. To satisfy others' curiosity.C. To remove negative feelings.D. To develop good relationships.10. Which of the following may Dr. Hand agree with?A. Sharing more details online can attract more sympathy.B. Oversharing negative experiences is equal to crying for help.C. Sharing negative posts can't help one become socially attractive.D. Oversharing isn't likely to happen online when things go wrong.11. According to the text, what should be avoided for online sharing?A. Reflecting on past bad manners.B. Showing a great many expensive goods.C. Writing a recipe for a balanced breakfast.D.

江苏省徐州市第一中学2019-2020学年高二下学期第三次检测试卷英语试题 Word版含答案
徐州一中2019～2020学年度高二寒假第三次检测英语第一部分:阅读理解(共两节，满分50 分)第一节(共15 个小题:每小题 2.5 分，满分37.5分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
ASeventy-three-year-old Gary selected his food in Value Mart more carefully than NASA chose its candidates for the space shuttle. Skim milk was $2.99, on sale from $3.49; white bread, 89 cents with a discount; table salt, 99 cents, 20 cents off the regular price. Leaving the cashier (收银员), he estimated that he had saved 80 cents today. He was pleased that he had got good value for his money again.At the exit, the cold wind reminded him of his gloves. “Now where are they?” Not in the coat pockets. Not in the grocery bag either. The worried man made a thorough search of all his pockets, again including the grocery bag. Now he was sure they must have been dropped somewhere inside the store.Old Gary had bought the black gloves at a 25% discount ten years ago. His quick decision to buy the expensive gloves turned out to be a good one, which even promoted his social status on the bus, as poorer passengers stared at him enviously. Losing this favorite possession was almost like losing a child to him.Gary re-entered the store with long steps. He followed the same route he had walked before. There were all open passages and it did not take long to be convinced that the gloves were not in sight.“Society has changed, people have changed”, he murmured to himself. “Years ago, if somebody picked up something lost, they would give it back. Not anymore!”On his way out, he went over to the cashier to ask if she had received any lost gloves. She asked him what color they were, and when he said “black”, there came a disappointing answer. He took his time now, finally walking out of the store.Back home, Gary was at a loss. In deep winter, he could not do without a pair of gloves. He was very upset that people no longer returned things they found on the road.After a month, Gary decided to buy another leather pair. Before boarding the subway, he stepped into Value Mart again to see if by any chance his gloves had been returned to the lost and found office. “What color are they?” the woman in the office asked again. “Black,” he gave the same answer. She looked into her drawer and drew out a pair of men’s leather gloves. “Are they?”“Yes! Those are mine!” Gary exclaimed, his eyes glowing with joy.1. According to the passage, Gary thought his buying the gloves to be ______.A. unnecessaryB. hot-headedC. wiseD. adventurous2. What can we infer about Gary?A. He is particular about food.B. He is not well off.C. He holds a pessimistic attitude towards life.D. He doesn’t get along well with his neighborhood.3. In Gary’s opinion, why couldn’t he recover his gloves at first?A. He was not careful enough.B. The cashier forgot to return his gloves.C. A customer took his gloves by mistake.D. Someone picked up his gloves and kept them on purpose.BRole-Playing in Child DevelopmentPlaying is a key component in the learning process for virtually all of the children. There are various ways in which children play, but one of the most important is role-playing. This involves a child engaging in an activity during which he or she pretends to be another person.Experts on child development believe that role-playing can increase the connections in children’s brains that help them learn. Language skills are some of the most important aspects of learning. When children role-play, they must work out steps that need to be taken to complete a task, and create plans to act out a story. These activities enable children to develop their oral languageskills. They become able to organize others and to give directions.Children’s social skills can also be developed. When engaged in group activities, children have different roles. Some are leaders while others are followers. At times, the children will disagree, so they must learn to negotiate and compromise with one another, and they must learn to apologize when they have strong arguments or disagreements as well. Children further learn about cooperation and sharing and, hopefully, begin to understand things from another person’s point of view.Besides helping children learn some kinds of skills, role-playing fosters children’s imaginations and can therefore assume a number of forms. For example, boys may pretend to shave like their fathers or perform various tasks around their homes. Girls, meanwhile, often pretend to be mothers to do some daily tasks, particularly if it involves caring for young babies. Sometimes children may imagine belonging to a group of superheroes or imitate(模仿)real-life situations. They might dress up and assume different roles. Another example is the performing of stories they read in books, which is also very common when they role-play.Another beneficial aspect of role-playing is that it can help children deal with certain actions that may cause them emotional(情感的) pain, such as the fear they face when going to school for the first time or making a visit to the doctor. If children role-play situations like these beforehand, the first that they experience when doing these actions in reality frequently lessons. For this reason, experts encourage parents to allow their children to role-play and even to take part in these activities to help their children master their fears.Role-playing can benefit children in many ways. There is no activity for which young children are better prepared than fantasy play. Nothing is more dependable and risk-free, and the dangers are only pretend.4. From the author’s description in Paragraph 4, we learn that children often ______. .A. act out the activities that their parents doB. perform daily tasks instead of their parentsC. involve daily-life activities in groupsD. change real-life situation when role-playing5. The author believes that role-playing may help children ______. .A. develop a better awareness of grammarB. understand how to be both leaders and followersC. improve creativity by using their imaginationsD. receive benefits from their emotional pain6. The underli ned word “master” in Paragraph 5 probably means ______. .A ignore B. confirm C. overcome D. predictCAttitudes toward new technologies often fall along generational lines. That is, generally, younger people tend to outnumber older people on the front end of a technological shift.It is not always the case, though. When you look at attitudes toward driverless cars, there doesn’t seem to be a clear generational divide. The public overall is split on whether they’d like to use a driverless car. In a study last year, of all people surveyed, 48 percent said they wanted to ride in one, while 50 percent did not.The fact that attitudes toward self-driving cars appear to be so steady across generations suggests how varying the shift to driverless cars could be. Not everyone wants a driverless car now—and no one can get one yet—but among those who are open to them, every age group is similarly involved.Actually, this isn’t surprising. Whereas older generations are sometimes reluctant to adopt new technologies, driverless cars promise real value to these age groups in particular. Older adults, especially those with limited moving or difficulty driving on their own, are one of the classic use-cases for driverless cars.This is especially interesting when you consider that younger people are generally more interested in travel-related technologies than older ones.When it comes to driverless cars, differences in attitude are easily noticeable based on factors not related to age. College graduates, for example, are particularly interested in driverless cars compared with those who have less education, 59 percent of college graduates said they would like to use a driverless car compared with 38 percent of those with a high-school diploma or less.Where a person lives matters, too. More people who live in cities and suburbs said they wanted to try driverless cars than those who lived in rural areas.While there’s reason to believe that interest in self-driving cars is going up across the board, a person’s age will ha ve little to do with how self-driving cars can become mainstream. Once driverless cars are actually available for sale, the early adopters will be the people who can afford to buy them.7. What happens when a new technology appears?A. It often leads to great inventions in other related fields.B. It contributes greatly to the advance of society as a whole.C. It further widens the gap between the old and the young.D. It usually draws different reactions from different age groups.8. What does the author say about the driverless car?A. It does not seem to create a generational divide.B. It will not necessarily reduce road accidents.C. It has given rise to unrealistic expectations.D. It may start a revolution in the car industry.9. Why does the driverless car appeal to some old people?A. It helps with their moving.B. It saves their money and energy.C. It adds to the safety of their travel.D. It makes their life more interesting.10. What is likely to affect one’s attitude toward the driverless car?A. The field of their special interest.B. The location of their living place.C. The amount of training they received.D. The length of their driving experience.DAs Connie took the plates away, I noticed a stack of newspapers that had obviously been read before I got there.You bother keeping up with the news, I asked? "Yes," Morrie said. "Do you think that's strange? Do you think because I'm dying, I shouldn't care what happens in this world?"Maybe.He sighed. "Maybe you're right. Maybe I shouldn't care. After all, I won't be around to see how it all turns out."But it's hard to explain, Mitch. Now that I'm suffering, I feel closer to people who suffer than I ever did before. The other night, on TV, I saw people in Bosnia running across the street, getting fired upon, killed, innocent victims . . . and I just started to cry. I feel their anguish as if it were my own. I don't know any of these people. But-how can I put this?-I'm almost . . . drawn to them."His eyes got moist, and I tried to change the subject, but he dabbed his face and waved me off."I cry all the time now," he said. "Never mind."Amazing, I thought. I worked in the news business. I covered stories where people died. I interviewed grieving family members. I even attended the funerals. I never cried. Morrie, for the suffering of people half a world away, was weeping. Is this what comes at the end, I wondered? Maybe death is the great equalizer, the one big thing that can finally make strangers shed a tear for one another.Morrie honked loudly into the tissue. "This is okay with you, isn't it? Men crying?"Sure, I said, too quickly.He grinned. "Ah, Mitch, I'm gonna loosen you up. One day, I'm gonna show you it's okay to cry."Yeah, yeah, I said. "Yeah, yeah," he said.We laughed because he used to say the same thing nearly twenty years earlier. Mostly on Tuesdays. In fact, Tuesday had always been our day together. Most of my courses with Morrie were on Tuesdays, he had office hours on Tuesdays, and when I wrote my senior thesis which was pretty much Morrie's suggestion, right from the start-it was on Tuesdays that we sat together, by his desk, or in the cafeteria, or on the steps of Pearlman Hall, going over the work.So it seemed only fitting that we were back together on a Tuesday, here in the house with the Japanese maple out front. As I readied to go, I mentioned this to Morrie."We're Tuesday people," he said. Tuesday people, I repeated.Morrie smiled."Mitch, you asked about caring for people I don't even know. But can I tell you the thing I'm learning most with this disease?"What's that?"The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in."His voice dropped to a whisper. "Let it come in. We think we don't deserve love, we think if we let it in we'll become too soft. But a wise man named Levine said it right. He said, `Love is the only rational(理性的) act.' "He repeated it carefully, pausing for effect. " `Love is the only rational act.' "I nodded, like a good student, and he exhaled weakly. I leaned over to give him a hug. And then, although it is not really like me, I kissed him on the cheek. I felt his weakened hands on my arms, the thin stubble of his whiskers brushing my face."So you'll come back next Tuesday?" he whispered.11.What kind of person do you think Morrie is?A.K ind and sensitiveB. Sensitive and energeticC. Committed and stubbornD. Depressed and stubborn12.What relationship do you suppose Morrie and Mitch share?A. NeighborsB. ColleaguesC. Father and son.D. Teacher and student13.Which of the following details shows that Mitch has been influenced by Morrie?A. I learned over to give him a hugB. I nodded, like a good studentC.I kissed him on the cheekD. Sure, I said, too quickly14.What does the underlined phrase “loosen you up” mean?A. let you goB. make you relaxedC. lose control of youD. allow you to be free15.What is the author likely to write about next?A. More Tuesdays with MorrieB. More about Mitch’s school lifeC. More reports about dying peopleD. More about the cause of Morrie’s disease第二节七选五(共 5 小题，每小题 2.5 分，满分12.5 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，选项中有两项为多余选项。

guide.C.Entertainment.D.Environment.BI enjoy life because I am endlessly interested in people and their growth My interest leads me to widen my knowledge of people,and this in turn makes me believe in the common goodness of mankind.I believe that the normal human heart is good since their birth.That is.it's born sensitive and feeling eager to be approved and to approve,hungry for simple happiness and the chance to live.Like Confucius,I am absorbed in the wonder of the earth,and the life on it.With a great faith in the human heart and its power to grow toward the light.I find here are reasons enough for hope and confidence in the future of mankind.The common sense of people will surely prove that mutual(相互的）support and cooperation are only sensible for the security and happiness of all.Such faith keeps me continually ready to do what one person can toward shaping the environment in which the human being can grow with freedom.This environment,I believe,is based upon the necessity for security and friendship.I take heart in a promising fact that the future world will contain food supplies enough for the entire earth population.Our knowledge of medical science will be sufficient to improve the health of the whole human race.Our resources and education,if administered on a world scale,will lift the intelligence of the race.Half a century ago.few people thought of world food,health and education.Many are thinking today of these things.Now I find my only questions about this:Are there enough people now who believe?Is there enough time left for the wise to act?It is a contest between ignorance and death,or wisdom and lite.My faith in humanity stands firm24.What results in the author's belief in people's goodness?A.His understanding of people.B.His desire for

in NeedCYou may not pay much attention to your daily elevator ride.Many of us use a lift several times during a day without really thinking about it.But Lee Gray,PhD.of the University of North Carolina,US,has made it his business to examine this overlooked form of public transport.He is known as the"Elevator Guy".The lift becomes an interesting social space where etiquette(礼仅）is sort of strange.Gray told the BBC."They are socially very interesting but often very awkward places.We walk in and usually turn around to face the door.If someone else comes in,we may have to move.And here,according to Gray.lift-users unthinkingly go through a set pattern of movements.He told the BEC what he had observed.He explained that when you are the only one inside a lift.you can do whatever you want-it's your own little box If there are two of you,you go into different corners,standing diagonally(对角线地）across from each other to create distance.Newcomers to the lift will need to size up the situation when the doors slide open and then act quickly.Once in.for most people the rule is simple-look down,or look at your phone.Why are we so awkward in lifts?"You don't have enough space."Professor Babette Renneberg,a clinical psychologist at the Free University of Berlin,told the BBC."Usually when we meet other people,we have about an arm's length of distance between us.And that's not possible in most elevators."In such a small.enclosed space it becomes very important to act in a way that cannot be considered to be threatening or strange"The easiest way do this is avoid eye contact,"she said28.What is people's response to the lift etiquette according to Gray?A Thinking much of it.B.Avoiding it on purpose.C.Ignoring it unconsciously.D.Researching it continuously.29.What does Gray think of riding a lift?A It's a funny and quick.B.It's strange and dangerous.C.It's convenient but boring.D.It's interesting but awkward30.What may most people do if they stay in the lift?A.Talk loudly to each other.e mobile phones.C.Keep still and silence.D.Keep a close distance31.What's the author's purpose in writing the text?A.To show how to ride elevators.B.To show how to break awkwardness of riding lifts.C.To introduce some rules of elevator etiquette.D.To analyze the reasons for keeping elevator etiquette.DA new paper published in Environmental Research Letters has some warning news for people living in the lower48states:You may be at risk from river flooding and not even know it until the water starts to rise.In fact,the study,estimates of present and future flood risk in the United States,found that41 million U.S.residents are at risk from flooding along rivers.That's three times more than current estimates based on the flood maps produced by the Federal Emergency Management Agency(FEMA),which primarily maps the areas at risk for1-in-100-year floods in populous(人口众多的）river basins.Why does the big difference come into being?As always,it's all about the data.Generally,FEMA prioritizes risk-assessment areas based on their population:reserving expensive field-work methodologies(研究方法）for the more populous river basins,but many other rivers have not yet been mapped at all.The size of the USA means that flood maps made in this way are incomplete.It would be too expensive and time-consuming to survey every river basin in America.The national-scale flood maps produced by FEMA leave the flood risk of many parts of the country unaccounted for.For this research,scientists from The Nature Conservancy adopted a pioneering methodology that avoids the detects of the FEMA approach,where individual catchments(流城）are studied by making use of big data.The study used a new high-resolution model,produced by the flood-mapping organization Fathorn,which copies floods on all rivers across the entire continental United States.“We were all surprised by now many people are actually exposed to freshwater flooding in the USA."said Oliver wing.lead researcher on the study and a PhD student at the University of Bristol"It's particularly worrisome considering that most of these people aren't even awareof the risk
