高考英语英语学习时间管理练习题20题带答案
高考英语英语学习时间管理练习题20题带答案1. You have two hours to study English. You plan to spend 40 minutes on listening, 60 minutes on reading and the rest on writing. How many minutes do you have for writing?A. 20B. 40C. 60答案：C。
解析：总共有两小时也就是120分钟学习英语。
花40分钟在听力上，60分钟在阅读上，那么用于写作的时间是120 - 40 - 60 = 20分钟，所以答案是C。
这体现了在时间分配中整体减去部分得到剩余部分的理念，也反映了英语学习中不同任务合理分配时间的重要性。
2. If you want to improve your English writing and reading skills in a day with 3 hours of study time, and you decide to spend twice as much time on reading as on writing. How much time should you spend on writing?A. 1 hourB. 1.5 hoursC. 0.5 hour答案：A。
解析：设写作时间为x小时，因为阅读时间是写作时间的两倍，所以阅读时间为2x小时。
总共学习时间是3小时，即x+2x = 3，3x = 3，解得x = 1小时。
这体现了根据任务的重要性或提升目标合理分配时间的理念，在英语学习中要根据自身需求合理安排阅读和写作的时间。
3. When preparing for an English exam with a total study time of 4 hours, you plan to divide the time equally among listening, reading, writing and vocabulary review. How much time do you allocate for each part?A. 1 hourB. 40 minutesC. 30 minutes答案：A。

(用非限制性定语从句翻译) （汉译英）二、阅读AOne third of adults over 65 in America have never used the Internet, and half don’t even have Internet access at home. In San Francisco, “the center of tech”, 40% of older adults do not have basic digital literacy skills.This situation is becoming appalling as over 10,000 Americans turn 65 every single day. By 2050,22% of Americans will be 65 or older. Meanwhile, technology is developing very fast. This means that a large number of people will be unable to proficiently use emergent technology.Many people believe that seniors aren’t required to participate in our tech future because they’ll be retired and relaxed soon. But this is the farthest thing from the truth. Baby boomers are currently experiencing a different boom: With more people getting older than ever before, their life expediencies are also increasing dramatically. With medical advancements, the number of American people projected to live into their 90’s has doubled since 1965.However, they don’t have strong financial or educational support. This is not a problem; it’s a crisis. More than half of employees over 50 have been laid off in what’s being called ”forced retirement“. And few organizations ar e actively helping older employees make the transition from full-time jobs to part-time ones. For those fortunate enough to be employed, 3 out of 5 older workers experience prejudice.The easiest solution is to teach digital literacy. If baby boomers want to survive the forthcoming retirement crisis, they should get enough digital knowledge and skills to operate today’s tools and tomorrow’s platforms. With every crisis comes an opportunity. Tutoring, customer service, editing, research, book-keeping, and other virtual assistance-based work open the doors. But again, digital knowledge is first required to live in our high-tech society and gig economy. So try to get more online and navigate the growing number of sites and apps.；6. What does the underlined wor d “appalling” probably mean in paragraph2? A．Confusing. B．Terrible. C．Controllable. D．Inspiring.；7. What problem may baby boomers face?A．A crisis after retirement. B．Being knocked out in the future. C．Failing to receive good healthcare. D．Tending to double their life expediencies.；8. What is the last paragraph mainly about?A．The features of high-tech jobs. B．The way out for baby boomers. C．Potential industries in the future. D．The importance of developing technology.；9. What does the author advise baby boomers to do?A．Have a good sense of crisis. B．Avoid retiring at an early age. C．Look for many part-time jobs. D．Improve digital literacy actively.BThe words “protect animals” appear everywhere in books and on screens, because some animals are even in danger of dying out. But sometimes the reality can be a little different from what people read or watch.About 300 black bears were killed in Florida, the US, in October, 2015.It’s been the first bear hunt in the state since 1994.Local officers explained t hat the black bear population（a）had grown to 3,500 and become a menace to local people.In the past two years, bears have hurt at least four people in Florida.Months ago ,the Swiss government allowed the locals to kill a wolf.This was because the wolf killed 38 sheep, and it was a great loss to some local farmers. Days ago in China, three old men were caught by the police for killing a serow（鬣羚）, a kind of protected animal.They said they killed the animal because it ate the plants they grew.However, these stories don’t always mean that animal protection stops because of human interests especially when it is related to economic development.A man named Zhou Weisen set up a wild animal base in Guilin, Guangxi. He saved over 170 tigers and about 300 bears.His base also offered jobs to local people.“There may never be a standard answer to the question of whether we should give more attention to the environment or human development,”said Robert May, a British expert at Oxford University. “But we shouldn’t put ei ther one to one side, as the future is uncertain.”；10. What does the underlined word “menace”in paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Tradition. B．Threat. C．Benefit. D．Relief.；11. Why did the Swiss government allow the locals to kill the wolf?A．The wolf killed a serow.B．The wolf was caught by the police.C．The wolf ate the plants the farmers grew.D．The wolf caused economic loss to local farmers.；12. Why did the author mention Zhou Weisen’s story in paragraph 4?A．To show that animal protection stops.B．To prove animal protection is important.C．To explain protecting animals can bring economic development.D．To stress that animal protection must give way to human interests.；13. Which of the following might Robert May agree with?A．Human interests should be considered first.B．We should focus on the future rather than the present.C．Humans can kill animals when their interests are harmed.D．Keeping the right balance between the environment and human interests is important.三、七选五阅读I love learning foreign languages so much that I learn a new language every two years. When people find I’m a polyglot(通晓多种语言的人)，they always askme,“How do you do that?” Honestly, my answer will be, “I don’t know. I simply love learning languages.” 14 They want to know why they spend years learning even one language, never achieving fluency, and what’s the secret of being polyglots.15 And what do we have in common? I decided to find that out. I went to several events where language lovers gather to practice their languages, asked dozens of polyglots about methods they use, and heard dozens of approaches. Everybody seems to have a unique way to speak several languages fluently.16 All these polyglots talked about language learning as if it was great fun. They found ways to turn language learning from a boring subject into a pleasant daily activity. You should have seen their faces when they were showing me their colorful grammar charts and handmade flash cards. 17 The methods are various, but they make s ure it’s something enjoyable.I realized it’s actually how I learn. 18 Then interesting programs became my choice. So all is clear. If you don’t like writing words down on paper, type them in an app. If you’re a shy person, apply self-talk at home. This is how polyglots learn languages, and the best news is that it’s available to anyone willing to take the learning into their own hands.A．How can those with little talent be fluent?B．But people are never happy with the reply.C．There’s no shortcut t o learning languages for anyone.D．One of them even made recipes in a foreign language.E．That made me wonder, too, how other polyglots actually do it.F．When learning Spanish last year, I was bored with textbooks.G．Polyglots simply found ways to enjoy the language-learning process.四、语法填空Samuel Langhorne Clemens, more commonly 19 (know) as Mark Twain, was born on November 30, 1835 in Florida. Twain is considered 20 greatest author and humorist of the 19th-century American literature (文学).In 1839 the Clemens family moved to Hannibal, Missouri, on the Mississippi River where he was brought 21 . Like many authors of his day he had little formal education. His education came from the print shops and newspaper offices22 he worked as a youth. In 1853 Twain left Hannibal to travel. On a trip to New Orleans he persuaded a riverboat pilot 23 (teach) him his skill. By the spring of 1859 Twain was a licensed riverboat pilot.After a(n) 24 (success) attempt at gold and silver mining he joined the staff of a newspaper in Virginia City, Nevada. He first wrote under the pen name Mark Twain in 1863.He continued to travel as a reporter for various newspapers, and in 1869 his travel letters from Europe 25 (collect) into the popular book The Innocents Abroad. Between 1873 and 1889 he wrote seven novels 26 (include) his Mississippi River books.27 Twain’s life and career progressed he lost much of the humorous style of his earlier years. What was expressed more and more in his later works was 28 human beings are selfish. Even so Twain is best remembered as a great humorist.五、读后续写29. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Former students and teachers come back to the school to enjoy the memories of their time there and the many Homecoming activities. Homecoming might last for only one day or for several days, even one week.High schools usually choose one boy and one girl from the senior class to be the “Homecoming King” and “Homecoming Queen”. The students usually choose a boy and a girl who have done a lot for the school.Most schools have a Homecoming parade(游行). The school band will often lead the way, followed by many different cars and trucks.Most schools also have a football game for Homecoming—and, of course, tailgate parties. A tailgate party is a group of people drinking and eating around the back, or tailgate, of someone’s pick-up truck.There are many other activities that might be a part of the Homecoming celebration. There might be a school-wide picnic one day; another day, there may be plays, concerts, competitions or games, all depending on a school’s traditions.

The bowlers wore clothes from 1900, are only food available in English at that time, and cooked their meals on a single stove. Paul bowler still went to work every day in a then uniform. The children changed their clothes on the way to and from school and their classmates didn’t know about then unusural home life. Joyce stayed at home, cooking and cleaning like a typical housewife of the time, though everything took three times as long.So does Joyce think that people’s lives were better in the old days?“I think people in the old days had just ad many troubles and worries,” Joyce sa id.And I don’t think their life was better or worse, there were lots of things back then that I’m happy I don’t have to deal with nowadays, but on the other hand life was simpler.” “We had a lot more time with our family, and it was hard being nice to eac h other all the time,” eleven-year-old Hilary said.So what did the Bowler family miss most about modern life while living in the 1900 house?Paul,39:” telephone and a hot shower”Joyce,44:” a quick cup of tea from a kettle you could just turn on”Hilary,11:” rock CD”Joseph,9:” hamburger and computer games”55.While the Bowler family was living in 1900 house,_____.A the mother spent more time on houseworkB the two children wore the then clothes for schoolC they prepared their meals together on a stoveD they ate simple foods they had never seen56.

Now it seems that every time I check my e-mail, I have a endless series of advertisements and other correspondence that do not interest me at all, we want e-mail to continue to be useful, we need specific laws that make spamming(发送垃圾邮件) a crime.If lawmakes do not do something soon to prohibit spam, the problem will certainly get much worse. Computer programs allow spammers to send hundreds of millions of e-mails almost instantly. As more and more advertisers turn to spam to sell their products, individual (个人的)e-mail boxes are often flooded with spam e-mails. Would people continue to use e-mail if they had to deal with annoying amount of spam each time？This problem is troubling for individuals and companies as well. Many spam e-mails contain computer virues that can shut down the entire network of a company. Companies rely on e-mail for their employees to communicate with each other. Spam frequently causes failures in their local communications networks, their employees are thus unable to communicate effectively. Such a situation results in a loss of productively and requires companies to repeatedly repair their networds. These computer problems raise prodution costs of companies, which are, in the end, passed on to the consumer.For these reasons, I believe that lawmakers need to legislate (立法) against spam.Spammers should be fined,and perhaps sent to prison if they continue to disturb people.E-mail is a tool which helps people all over the world to communicateconveniently,but spam is destroying this conwenience.58What does the underlined word “correspondence” in the Paragraph 1 probably mean?A.messagesB.ideasC.connectionsD.programs59.According to the text, what is the major cause of the flooding spam?panies rely on e-mail for communications.B.More people in the world communicate by e-mail.C.Many computer viruses contain spam e-mail.D.More advertisers begin to promote sales through spam.60.According to Paragraph 3,who is the final victim of spam?A. The businessB. The advertiserC.The employeeD.The consumert61.There are many occasions（场合）for giving gifts in modern industrialinzed societies;birthdays,naming ceremonies, weddings, anniversaries, New Year, It is common to give gifts on many of these celebrations in western cultures. In addition, special events, such as one’ s first day of school or graduation from university, often require gift fiving.62.What is happening when we give gifts? Most important, we are exchanging gifts. If someone gives me a gift for my birthday, I know that I am usually expected to give one on his or her next birthday. A gift builds up or confirms a social oblingation（义务）.63.Gifts tighten personal relationships and provide a means of communication between loved ones. People say that a gift lets the recipient（接受者）know we are thinking of them, and that we want to make the person “feel special.”We want people to feel want ed, to feel part of our social or family group. We give presents to say “I’m sorry.”Sometimes it is difficult for us to find a present that someone will like. Sometimes we give things that we like or would frrl comfortable with. In all these cases, the gifts are sending out messages－often very expressive ones.64.People tend to talk about presents in a fairly loving way. A woman whose mother had died years ago described the many gifts around her house.These were gifts that her mother had given her over th e years:“I appreciate these, and they mean something to me,”the woman said,“because I remember the occasions they were given on, and that they were from my mother, and the relationship we’ve had.”The gifts remain and keep the relationship alive in mind. This woman felt the same way about the gifts she gave to others. She hoped that the recipients would look at here gifts in years to come and65.Emotions(情感)like these suggest that a positive spirit still lies behind gift giving. They prove that the anthropologist Claude Levi-Strauss was wrong to say that modern western gift giving is highly wasteful. Studies in Canada and elsewhere have also shown that this is not the case. Each gift is unique even if so many are given.The emotional benefit for those who exchange gifts is the very reason for the tradition to continue.第三部分写作（共三节，满分55分）六．单词拼写（10分）根据下列各句句意和空白之后的汉语提示词，在答题卡指定区域的横线上写出对应单词的正确，完整形式，每空只写一词。

British director Steve McQueen’s brave portrayal of pre-Civil War American slavery won two other Oscars, including best supporting actress for newcomer Lupita Nyong’o and best adapted screenplay based on the memoir of Solomon Northup, a free man tricked and sold into slavery in Louisiana. “Everyone deserves not just to survive but to live. This is the most important legacy of Solomon Northup,〞 said McQueen in his acceptance speech.“12 Years a Slave〞was better over space thriller “Gravity〞 from Mexican filmmaker Alfonso Cuaron, which nevertheless got the most Oscars of the night with seven, including the best director honor for Cuaron, a first for a Latin American director.The film starring Sandra Bullock as an astronaut lost in space swept the technical awards like visual effects and cinematography, a reward for its groundbreaking work on conveying space and weightlessness. Referring to the “transformative〞 experience he and others undertook in the four-plus years spent making “Gravity〞, Cuaron, whose hair is graying, said, “For a lot of these people, that transformation was wisdom. For me, it was just the color of my hair.〞 In one of the strongest years for film in recent memory, the 6,000-plus voters of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences scattered golden Oscarstatuettes among the many acclaimed movies in contention.It was a good night for the scrappy, low-budget film “Dallas Buyers Club〞, directed by Jean-Marc Vallee, a biopic of an early AIDS activist two decades in the making that won three Oscars, including the two male acting awards. Matthew McConaughey, in a validation of a remarkable career turnaround, won best actor for his portrayal of the homophobe who turned AIDS victim and then turned treatment crusader Ron Woodroof, a role for which he lost 50 pounds (23 kg). His co-star, Jared Leto, won best supporting actor for h is role as Woodroof’s unlikely business partner, the transgender woman Rayon, for which he also slimmed down drastically.Australia’s Cate Blanchett won the best actress Oscar for her acclaimed role as the socialite unhinged by her husband’s financial crimes in Woody Allen’s “Blue Jasmine.〞“As random and subjective as this award is, it means a great deal in a year of, yet again, extraordinary performances by women,〞 said Blanchett, who beat out previous Oscar winners Bullock, Amy Adams, Judi Dench and Meryl Streep.36. The film which won the largest number of Oscar awards this year is ______.A. 12 Years a SlaveB. GravityC. Dallas Buyers ClubD. Blue Jasmine37. Which director spent the least money in making the film?A. Steve McQueen.B. Alfonso Cuaron.C. Jean-Marc Vallee.D. Woody Allen.38. How many Oscar best actresses are mentioned in this passage?A. One.B.

Man on FireThe Visual:Man on Fire describes a lone male figure covered in live fire coral to resemble fire.The Meaning:The sculpture symbolizes the unawareness of the “fire〞 our generation has started with the over use of limited natural resources.The Hope:Man on Fire has 75 holes planted with small live cuttings of fire coral which are expected to grow like fire. The Location:Man on Fire was installed 8 meters deep at the Manchones Reef nearby to Isla Mujeres.Behind the Scenes:The sculpture was cast from a local Mexicanfisherman and it weighs over 1 ton.The Silent EvolutionThe Visual:Here more than 400 sculptures depict the timeline ofhuman nature.The Meaning:It is a documentation of how society and people havechanged over time.

The writer introduces the sculptures to _______.A. defend Mexican Tourism IndustryB. call on us to go on a tour to AquaworldC. appeal to readers to protect Marine LifeD. attract tourists to the UnderwaterMuseumCBritish writer John Bunyan was born at Elstow, Bedfordshire, England, in November, 1628. His father was a maker and mender of pots and kettles, and the son followed the same trade. Though he is usually called a tinker, Bunyan had a settled home and place of business. He had little schooling, and he describes his early surroundings as poor and mean. He became much interested in religions, but it was only after a tremendous spiritual conflict, lasting three or four years, that he found peace. His struggles are related with extraordinary vividness and intensit y in his “Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners.〞 His writing began with a controversy against the Quakers (教友派), and shows from the first the command of a homely but vigorous style.Like most working men at the time, Bunyan had a deep hatred for the corrupted, hypocritical rich who accumulated their wealth “by hook and by crook.〞 As a stout Puritan(清教徒), he had made a conscientious study of the Bible and firmly believed in salvation (拯救) through spiritual struggle.Bunyan’s style was modeled after that o f the English Bible. With his concrete and living language and carefully observed and vividly presented details, he made it possible for the reader of the least education to share the pleasure of readinghis novel and to relive the experience of his characters.Bunyan’s works include Grace Abounding to the Chief of Sinners (1666), The Life and Death of Mr. Badman(1680), The Holy War(1682) and The Pilgrim’s Progress (1684).The Pilgrim’s Progress is the most successful religious allegory (寓言) in the English language. Its purpose is to urge people to observe Christian doctrines and seek salvation through constant struggle with their own weaknesses and all kinds of social evils. It is not only about something spiritual but also bears much relevance to the time. Its predominant metaphor—life as a journey—is simple and familiar. The objects that Christian meets are homely and commonplace, and the scenes presented are typical English ones, but throughout the allegory a spiritual significance is added to the commonplace details. Here the strange is combined with the familiar and the trivial joined to the divine, and, a rich imagination and a natural talent for storytelling also contribute to the success of the work which is at once entertaining and morally instructive.“The Vanity Fair,〞 is an excerpt from The Pilgrim’s Progress. The story starts with a dream in which the author sees Christian the Pilgrim, with a heavy burden on his back, reading the Bible. When he learns from the book that the city in which he and his family live shall be burnt down in a fire, Christian tries to convince his family and his neighbors of the oncoming disaster and asks them to go with him in search of salvation, but most of them simply ignore him. So he starts off with a friend, Pliable. Pliable turns back after they stumble into a pit, the Slough of Despond. Christian struggles on by himself. Then he is misled by Mr. Wordly Wiseman and is brought back onto the right road by Mr. Evangelist.There he joins Faithful, a neighbor who has set out later but has made better progress. The two go on together through many adventures, including the great struggle with Apollyon, who claims them to be his subjects and refuse to accept their allegiance to God. After many other adventures they come to the Vanity Fair where both are arrested as alien agitators. They are tried and Faithful is condemned to death. Christian, however manages to escape and goes on his way, assisted by a new friend, Hopeful. Tired of the hard journey, they are tempted to take pleasant path and are then captured by Giant Despair. Finally they got away and reach the CelestialCity, where they enjoy eternal life in the fellowship of the blessed.43. According to the passage, Bunyan hated the rich people mainly because ______.A. his father was making and mending pots and kettlesB. Bunyan had poor and mean early surroundingsC. the rich usually got their wealth in dishonest waysD. Bunyan studied the Bible to save the human souls44. What are the main characteristics of Bunyan’s works?① The languages are concrete and living.② The stories are carefullyand vividly described.③ The plots are romantic and twisting.④ The works are easy to understand.A. ①②③B. ②③④C. ①③④D.①②④45. John Bunyan wrote the book The Pil grim’s Progress in order to ______.A. advise people to obey religious principles for salvationB. tell people that life is a simple and familiar journeyC. add spiritual significance to the commonplace detailsD. to combine the strange things with the familiar things46. What moral does the story of the last paragraph convey to us?A. Any imaginable things might happen in a pilgrim’s dream.B. Christian the Pilgrim likes reading the Bible with a burden.C. People can struggle against weaknesses and evils for salvationD. People can enjoy eternal life in the fellowship of the blessed.DForbes set out to determine which master’s degrees would provide the best long-term opportunities, based on salary and employment outlook. To find the mid-career average pay for 35 popular degrees, we turned to Payscale , which lets users compare their salaries with those of other people in similar jobs by gathering real-time salary data from its 35 million profiles. We then looked at the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ employ ment estimate data to see how fast employment was expected to increase between 2010 and 2020 in popular jobs held by people with each degree. Finally we averaged each degree’s pay rank and estimated(评估) growth rank to find the best and worst master’s degre es for jobs.Physician assistant degree is at the top of the Forbes’ third-annual look at the best master’s degrees for jobs. Physician assistants are medical professionals who provide diagnostic and preventative health care services under the guidance of doctors.“Both an aging population and health care reform are contributing to a higher demand for health care services,〞says Katie Bardaro, Payscale’s lead economist.They don’t earn as much as doctors, but their mid-career average pay is $97,000. Another advantage of a physician assistant degree: Employment opportunities areexpected to grow 30% by 2020 (from the 2010 employment numbers), according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.By our count, computer science follows close behind as the No. 2 best advanced degree for jobs. Mid-career average pay for these grads is $109,000, sixth best out of the 35 degrees in our survey. Employment opportunities for computer science degree-holders are expected to expand about 22% between 2010 and 2020. Electrical engineering, physics and economics degrees also make the top 10, all with an average mid-career salary of more than $110,000 a year.Not all master’s degree holders enjoy anywhere near such optimistic job prospects(前景) or extraordinary pay. Biology, chemistry and history degrees are toward the bottom of the list—but that doesn’t mean they’re useless. If you’re enthusiastic about these fields, the lower pay and slimmer job prospects shouldn’t prevent you from pursuing a master’s.Before you make a decision, you should bear one thing in mind: master’s degree-holders don’t necessarily earn more than other people in similar jobs—so don’t base your decision to pursue one on the idea that you’ll bring in bigger paychecks.It’s also important to think about work-life balance and employee satisfaction for the common jobs associated with these degrees. “You need to consider overall happiness,〞Bardaro says. “If obtaining a master’s degree causes an imbalance due to time devoted to education and potentially more stress at work, then one will need to decide if these costs are worth it.〞47. Forbes turned to Payscale to __________.A. let users compare their salaries with those of other people in different jobsB. see how fast employment was expected to increase between 2010 and 2020C. sum up the pay of those graduates with 35 popular degrees in different fieldsD. figure out the mid-career average pay in popular jobs held by people with different degree48. Physician assistant degree ranks first on the list because __________.A. Physician assistants are medical professionals.B. Physician assistants enjoy the highest pay compared with other grads.C. The qualifications of physician assistants are not second to those of doctors.D. The demand of physician assistants is expected to expand largely and they are well-paid.49. What can be inferred from the passage?A. $100,000 is a satisfying pay for most of the grads.B. It is the first time that Forbes has done a survey of this kind.C. Biology degrees were once hot for tho se master’s degree pursuers.D. Doctors earn more than those in electrical engineering on the average.50. According to what Bardaro said in the last paragraph, we may safely conclude that __________.A. obtaining a master’s degree is a mustB. a master’s degree is not always worth pursuingC. obtaining a master’s degree leads to an imbalance between work and lifeD. those with master’s degrees are bound to earn more than other people in similar jobs四、任务型阅读Naturally regulate your sleep-wake cycleMelatonin(褪黑激素) is a naturally occurring hormone(激素) that helps regulate your sleep-wake cycle. Melatonin production is controlled by light exposure. Your brain should produce more in the evening, when it's dark, to make you sleepy, and less during the day when it's light and you want to stay awake. However, many aspects of modern life can disturb your body's natural production of melatonin and your sleep-wake cycle.Spending long days in an office away from natural light, for example, can impact your daytime wakefulness and make your brain sleepy. Then bright lights at night —especially from hours spent in front of the TV or computer screen—can hold back your body's production of melatonin and make it harder to sleep, However, there are ways for you to naturally regulateyour sleep-wake cycle, improve your body's production of melatonin, and keep your brain on ahealthy schedule.Increase light exposure during the day☆Remove your sunglasses in the morning and let light onto your face.☆Spend more time outside during daylight. Try to take your work breaks outside in sun light, exercise outside, or walk your dog during the day instead of at night. ☆Let as much light into your home/workspace as possible. Keep curtains and blinds open during the day, move your desk closer to the window.☆If necessary, use a light treatment box. A light treatment box can create sunshine and can be especially useful during short winter days when there's limited daylight.Improve melatonin production at night☆Turn off your television and computer. Many people use the television to fall asleep or relax at the end of the day. Not only does the light hold back melatoninproduction, but television can actually excite the mind, rather than relaxing it. Try listening to music or audio books, or practicing relaxation exercises. If your favorite TV show is on late at night, record it for viewing earlier in the day. ☆Don't read from a backlit device at night (such as an iPad). Ifyou use a portable electronic device to read, use an eReader that is not backlit, i. e. one that requires an additional light source such as a bedside lamp.☆Change your light bulbs. Avoid bright lights before bed, use low-wattage bulbs instead.☆When it's time to sleep, make sure the room is dark. The darker it is, the better you'll sleep. Cover electrical displays, use heavy curtains or shades to block light from windows, or try an eye mask to cover your eyes.☆ Use a flashlight to go to the bathroom at night. As long as it's safe to do so, keep the light to a minimum so it will be easier to go back to sleep.单项选择1-5ADABC 6-10ADCDB 11-15DDCBC完形填空16-20BDBAC 21-25 DBACD 26-30 CBADB 31-35ACBAD阅读理解36-40 BCCAD 41-45 BDCDA 46-50 CDDAB任务型阅读51.occurs 52. while 53.Disturbing 54.keeping 55.Approaches 56.Take 57.sit 58.especially 59.instead 60.Avoid。

He got to my baby before I could．”Caleb owed it to a higher power that he and his family survived the crash．“Thankful to God the angels were here，” he said. “Nobody knew who was hurt or what was going on or what happened. It was just chaos.”The driver was identified by authorities as 84-year-oid Christina Wands，a customer visiting the store to pick up her watch.“I pulled into the parking space and thought，‘Gee，great，I have a parking space right up by the door,’and I was going to put the brake on and turn the cat off and go in.”Wands told ABCNews. com. today by phone from her home．“I was wearing diabetic shoes and what must have happened is I hit the gas instead of the brake.”“I couldn’t find the brake,” she said．“That’s what happened．I did not drive my car into the jewelry store．”Wands was ticketed and charged with careless driving，according to Officer Gena Bilbo with the Savannah Police．She is scheduled to appear in court in January.

He ended up getting to know about the dark side of human nature. It seems that sometimes humans feel a need to prove they are powerful on this planet by taking a two-ton metal vehicle and pressing a defenseless creature under the tires.Weaver put a realistic rubber turtle in the middle of a lane on a busy road near campus. Then he got out of the way and watched over the next hour as seven drivers changed direction suddenly and deliberately ran over the animal. Several more apparently tried to hit it but missed.The number of turtles is in slow decline, and one big reason is that many wind up as roadkill while crossing the road, a slow-and-steady trip that can take several minutes.Weaver wants to figure out the best way to get turtles safely across the road and keep the population from becoming smaller further. He chose a road in a residential (住宅区的) area. He put his rubber turtle in the middle of the lane,facing the far side of the road, as if it was early in its journey across. The second of the 50 cars to pass by that day changed direction suddenly over the center line, its right tires crashing the plastic shell. Other cars during the hour missed the turtle. “One hit in 50 cars is pretty significant when you consider it might take a turtle 10 minutes to cross the road,” Weaver said.It takes a turtle seven or eight years to become mature enough to reproduce, and in that time, it might make several trips across the road to get from one pond to another, looking for food or a place to lay eggs. A female turtle that lives 50 years might lay over 100 eggs, but just two or three are likely to survive to reproduce, said Weaver.“They seem so helpless and cute,” he said. “I want to stop and help them.I can’t understand the idea why you would drive to hit something so helpless asa turtle.”Among the possible solutions: turtle underpasses or an education campaign aimed at teenagers on why drivers shouldn't mow turtles down. He thinks the latter is more important.40、The underlined part “the dark side of human nature” in the first paragraphmost probably refers to .A．that some people think it is quite exciting to drive fast on the roadB．that some people don’t want to protect endangered animalsC．that some people think it just fun to kill helpless animalsD．that some people show no concern for helping animals41、One main reason why the number of turtles has declined is .A．that some drivers deliberately run over them on the roadB．that a turtle needs quite a few years to grow upC．that a female turtle can only lay two or three eggs in its lifeD．that people live nearer in the place where turtles are living42、From the fourth paragraph, we can know that Weaver was quite about whathe saw on the road in a residential area.A．disappointed B．annoyed C．interested D．satisfied 43、After reading the passage, we can know that the turtle is an animal .A． which likes going cross a roadB．which lives in different ponds in its lifeC．which lives near a residential areaD．which makes trouble on the roadCInfluence of Television on a PersonIn the twenty first century technology is developing very fast．Advanced technological wonders still surprise us and make us want more and more comfort that they create．One of them is television that became popular all over the world and there is no country, region or village where people don’t know what a TV is．Itis also considered that Television has both advantages and disadvantages and for one it is very difficult to decide what to watch if to watch at a11．Certainly, television is the main source of information．People listen and watch a short news sequence that provides us with the necessary information and keeps us informed during the day．Also，no doubt，television is the way to entertain oneself, for it offers a variety of possibilities to have fun sitting on your couch and relaxing．Another way to capture people’s minds on a live TV screen is advertisement．Commercials have become an inseparable part of broadcasting and live coverage．Even favorite movies are interrupted by short ads．Though commercials are what hold television together and there’s nobody who can prove this wrong. Besides there have to be some ways to show what lies on the shelves at supermarkets．When it comes to disadvantages，one may prepare for a long story．It is harmful to stay in front of the TV for a long time．It spoils our eyes and health，doctors say．But the same thing happens when we read articles or interesting narrative essays for a long time. Same story with the computer, nothing harms our sight this much．As for the information that we constantly see on TV, it is a miracle how one can watch it without getting crazy．Indeed，watching three or more reality shows in a row makes you at first confused then frustrated and then constantly unsatisfied and angry．It is also the same story with movies．It is almost impossible to find a movie without blood spilling around and angry man fighting for God knows what．Of course a nice narrative essay can be put aside when something similar comes up．Now movies are rated，but who pays attention to that little figure in the corner of your screen? As long as movie is good, nobody cares to think about its influence on their children．Television makes people physically inactive．It is impossible to stand up and go for a walk when your favorite soap opera is coming up. You leave everything undone and rush to see what happens next and stay glued to the screen till it’s over．Then another comes and you slowly but surely turn into a couch potato with health problems in mental, as in physical field．What makes us glue ourselves to the TV screen and go to bed with a TV on? It’s quite time to break the habit and start reading something useful，for example，the article about harm and advantages of watching TV．44、The author seems to believe that advertisements on TV ．A．are at all times right B．are often interrupted by soap operasC．offer possibilities to have fun D．can catch people’s attention45、From the text we can infer that a couch potato is ．A．a person who watches too much TV B．a person who is seriously ill C．a plant that people grow at home D．a plant that is advertised on TV46、The author’s attitude towards TV seems to be ．A．subjective B．objective C．skepticalD．conventional47、The structure of this passage is ．（I=introduction；MP=main point；C=conclusion）DMr. Dawson was an old grouch（坏脾气的人）, and everyone in town knew it. Kids knew not to go into his yard to pick a delicious apple, Old Dawson, they said, would come after you with his gun.One Friday, 12-year-old Janet was going to stay all night with her friend Amy. They had to walk by Dawson’s house on the way to Amy’s house, but as they got close, Janet saw him sitting on his front porch and suggested they cross over to the other side of the street. Like most of the children, Janet was scared of the old man.Amy said not to worry. Mr. Dawson wouldn’t hu rt anyone. Still, Janet was growing more nervous with each step closer to the old man’s house. When they got close enough, Dawson looked up with his usual frown, but when he saw it was Amy, a broad smile changed his entire face as he said, “Hello Miss Amy.I see you’ve got a little friend with you today.”Amy smiled back and told him Janet was staying overnight and they were going to listen to music and play games. Dawson told them that sounded fun, and offered them each a fresh picked apple off his tree. They gladly accepted. Dawson had the best apples in the town.When they left, Janet asked Amy, “Everyone says he’s the meanest man in town. How come he was so nice to us?”Amy explained that when she first started walking past his house he wasn’t very friendly and she was afraid of him, but she pretended he was wearing an invisible smile and so she always smiled back at him. It took a while, but one day he half-smiled back at her.After some more time, he started smiling real smiles and then started talking to her. Just a “hello” at first, then more. She said he always offers her an apple now, and is always very kind.“An invisible smile?” questioned Janet.“Yes,” answered Amy, “my grandma told me that if I pretended I wasn’t afraid and pretended he was smiling an invisible smile at me and I smiled back at him, that sooner or later he would really smile. Grandma says smiles are contagious.”If we remember what Amy’s grandma said, that everyone wears an invisible smile, we too will find that most people can’t r esist our smile after a while.We’re always on the go trying to accomplish so much, aren’t we? It’s so easy to get caught up in everyday life that we forget how simple it can be to bring cheerto ourselves and others. Giving a smile away takes so little ef fort and time, let’s make sure that we’re not the one that others have to pretend is wearing an invisible smile.48、Kids were scared of Mr. Dawson because .A．he was mean with his apples B．he was wearing an invisible smileC．he always had a bad temper D．he would fire them with a gun 49、We can infer from the passage that .A．Mr. Dawson was friendly to Amy because the always wore an invisible smile B．Janet was so lovely a girl that Dawson couldn’t resist her smilesC．it was Grandma’s advice that helped make Amy and Dawson closerD．Janet and Amy were going to invite Dawson to listen to music and play games 50、The underlined word means .A．powerful B．infectious C．movingD．supportive51、What is the main message that the writer intends to send us readers?A．Smile whenever we can.B．Always wear an invisible smile.C．Transform others with our sincere smile.D．Pretend that we are happy even if we are not.答案：单选 AABCD DADCD BABDB阅读： ADBC CADB。

Mackinac Island, MichiganThe only way to reach this famed car-free island is by boat and ferry, and once visitors arrive, they are attracted by the history, scenery and fall col ors. “It’s a throwback to years past, a little town, and there’s a big state park as well,” Blackwell says. “ You’re allowed to have boats all around the island.”2. Tellico Lake, TennesseeWith nearly 400 miles of shoreline, this waterway flowing out of the Great Smoky Mountains is largely unexploited, well-protected in its natural state. Fall visitors find a range of colors reflecting in the clean waters, says Blackwell, who vacationed in the area with his family as a child. “The thick forest there just a llows you to see more greenery and wildlife."3. Dillon Reservoir, ColoradoWith an hour from Denver, this lake is home to what claims to be the nation's highest sailing club, at an altitude of more than 9,000 feet. Marinas in the towns of Dillon and Frisco make it easy to get out on he water and to see the bright yellows and golds of fall leaves. “ People are surprised that there's boating in Colorado, and you can see the mountains just before the snowball," Blackwell says.4. Lake Monroe, IndianaThe stat e’s largest lake is surrounded by more than 13,000 acres of protected forest and three recreation areas, making it an ideal place to see fall colors, particularly from oaks and the tulip poplar, the state tree. “ It’s a gem (宝石) in southern Indiana," says Blackwell, who grew up in the area. “There are lots of different activities: canoeing, kayaking and fishing.”1. What is special about Mackinac Island?A. It’s like a modern city.B. Visitors can’t take a boat around it.C. Visitors can see various wildlife there.D. Visitors can’t go there by cars.2. Which is suitable for someone looking for an undeveloped place for vacation?A. Mackinac Island, Michigan.B. Tellico Lake, Tennessee.C. Dillon Reservoir, Colorado.D. Lake Monroe, Indiana.3.

Visitors can enjoy fall colors there.BWhen HarmonyOs, the Chinese self-developed operating system for Huawei mobile devices, was released on Aug 9, it quickly became a hot topic on social media. Many believe it not only represents the rise of the country as a tech power, but also shows respect to classical Chinese culture by naming the system "Hongmcng " in Chinese."Hongmeng" is a classical word from Zhuangzi. In the ancient times of Chinese legend and myths (神话),“Hongmeng" was used to describe the original state of the universe before matter existed. For HarmonyOS, "Hongmeng" indicates the developers’ aim t o make an innovative operating system, unlike any other.Besides "Hongmeng'", Hunwei has also registered many of its products under the names of legendary creatures from Chinese myths. For example, the company's Kirin mobile chip got its name after a lucky monster called "Qilin". And its server chip is calked "Kunpeng”, a creature that changed from a fish into a giant bird.Many Chinese Internet users and media have praised Huawei's use of these names," as they stand for Chinese wisdom and ancient people’s imagination and spirit of exploration”, Global Times noted.In fact, Huawei is not alone in using traditional culture for modern ventures. Ne Zha, the new film, also portrays traditional culture in a modern context. The movie is loosely based on the well-known work of classical Chinese myth The Investiture of the Gods. Earlier this month it became the biggest animated movie in China and was called “ the glory of domestic anime (国产动漫)”.Indeed, the long history and splendid classic works have given China a profound culture. Myths and legends are the creative works of tremendous imagination. As Global Times put it, today by revisiting a modern context, “ ancient myths has the power to inspire imagination in young people”. After all, imagination is the beginni ng of creation.4. What do we know about HamonyOS?A. Its release raised a storm of objections.B. It is named after creature in myth.C. It combines high technology and culture.D. It's the best operating system.5. Which of the following best explains "i nnovative” underlined in Paragraph 2?A. creativeB. modernC. popularD. intelligent6. How do the public think of Huawei's use of the names?A. Confused.B. Unexpected.C. Approving.D. Doubtful.7. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?A. The film Ne Zha is not adapted from myths.B. The film Ne Zha is a big hit.C. More businesses follow Huawei's lead.D. Ancient myths is a good choice for entertainment.CPeople who sleep fewer than six hours a night are more likely to die early, researchers in University of Warwick have found in a recent study. They discovered that people who slept for less than six hours each night were 12% more likely to die before the age of 65 than those who slept the recommended six to eight hours a night.The researchers pointed out that previous studies had shown that the lack of sleep was associated with problems like heart disease and high blood pressure. However, the researchers also found that sleeping too much was linked to an early death. Those who slept for more than nine hours a night were 30% more likely to die early, as an article in the latest Sleep suggested. That directly contradicts another passage in the same journal last month suggesting that people who slept for ten hours or longer a night were more likely to live to 100. This was thought to be because people who lived into extreme old age were healthier and therefore slept better.However, the authors of the latest research contradicted this and suggested that long sleep was a sign of underlying illnesses such as depression and low levels of physical activity. Professor Francesco Cappuccio at the University of Warwick said: “While short sleep may represent a cause of ill-health, long sleep is believed to represent more an indicator of ill-health.”He a lso mentioned: “Modern society has seen a gradual reduction in the average amount of sleep people take, and this pattern is more common among full-time workers, suggesting that it may be due to social pressures for longer working hours. On the other hand, the worsening of our health is often accompanied by an extension of our sleeping time.”“Consistently sleeping six to eight hours per night may be good for health. However, whether to achieve the goal depends on various factors such as the environment as well as measures of public health aimed at favourable changes of the working environments,” Professor Francesco Cappuccio added.8. What did researchers in University of Warwick find?A. People who sleep fewer than 6 hours each night die before 65.B. Sleep ing for more than 9 hours a night does good to one’s health.C. Six to eight hours’ sleep can be appropriate for people.D. People at an old age are healthier because they sleep longer.9. What is Professor Francesco Cappuccio most likely to agree with?A. Long sleep is what causes our health problems.B. Modern people sleep less because they work longer.C. Our health becomes worse because we sleep less.D. How long we sleep depends on our education.10. What did the researcher think may help people have proper sleep?A. Social pressure.B. Longer working hours.C. Extension of sleeping time.D. Changes of working environments.11. What can be the best title for this passage?A. How Long Should We SleepB. Longer Sleep Makes Better HealthC. Time to Sleep EarlyD. The Importance of SleepDImagine a school where self-awareness is celebrated, students are encouraged to solve maths problems by writing on the walls and applying learned lessons to real life is more important than homework. These are a few of the concepts that makes Space of Mind School unique.Located in a home built in 1896 in Florida, US, the program serves students in grades 2 through 12 and will accept kindergarten students next year. It also offers an after-school program for students who attend traditional schools, as well as evening programs for adults and educators and weekend events for families.There is a different atmosphere from that of a traditional school building. Tables and brightly colored walls are white boards. In the science room, students are studying climate changes at a weather station, while in the music room, a student is solving an equation (等式) with his academic coach while he connects music theory and maths.The daily schedule at the school also stands out. “ We don’t assign boring or exhausting homework.” said Space of Mind founder and CEO Ali Kaufman. “ Instead of homework, we ask that they go home and take a video of themselves applying a lesson they learned or cooking a meal for their family that they learned how to make at school.”For lunch, instead of traditional cafeteria dishes such as pizza, the school offers organic meals made out of products from local gardens and farms. “ Our students also run a business at the Delray Beach Green Market onSaturdays so they c an understand sustainable living practices and how to run a business,” Kafman said.“ We are also the first school program in Florida to start and end each day with 15 minutes of meditation (冥想),” Kaufman said. “ The positive results we have been seeing in the students from meditation are amazing. We are really about infusing social, emotional and creative skills with academic and life skills.”12.Space of Mind School_________. A. assigns no homework. B. urges students to use what they learn. C. teaches students to earn money in class. D. focuses on knowledge learning. 13. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Yoga enjoys great popularity in US. B. The practice of meditation is amazing. C. The meditation session lasts 15 minutes daily. D. The students benefit from meditation. 14. The underlined word “infusing" in the last paragraph probably means______.A. emphasizing B. checking C. developing D. helping 15. What is the text mainly about? A. What makes Space of Mind School outstanding. B. Why Space of Mind School is popular in US. C. How the after-class programs of space of Mind School are organized. D. How Space of Mind School cultivates students' life skills. 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

高三英语晚自习限时高效练学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________一、阅读理解AMy husband and I always wanted to go to the Caribbean but didn’t know much about the islands or how we were going to afford it. By chance, a friend of ours in Australia mentioned “pet sitting” and that it is something you can do all over the world.We quickly created an account on a pet sitting website and began searching for options. There were only a couple of sits available in that part of the world, but we tried our luck, sent a request, and to our surprise landed a three-month job in Grenada, so our year was going to be taken up with Caribbean pet sits.Inspired by a Canadian couple, we decided to start our own travel blog. We began by writing about The Virgin Islands, highlighting the beautiful beaches. However, for every photo album of a beautiful beach, there were 10 photos of trash (垃圾). It was hard to ignore the plastic pollution issue, especially on such primitive and remote beaches. So, we began to share photos of the trash we saw and how much we could pick up on our daily dog walks.The more we looked into plastic pollution, the more we realized the severity of the global plastic pollution. From that point, we used our platform to create awareness and highlight ways to say no to plastic and travel plastic-free. We changed our daily routines, our way of living, and even our diets to accommodate more organic foods and little to no plastic packaging.It’s been over three years now and we continue to do what we can. This journey has led us to some amazing places, working with great brands and even organizing a country-wide beach clean-up campaign in Grenada.Our aim now is to keep on going. We love connecting with like-minded people. It’s been amazing few years that was sparked by a conversation about pet sitting. Who would have guessed?；1. Why did the author do pet sitting?A．To raise fund. B．To protect the environment.C．To cover travel expenses. D．To shoot beautiful beaches.；2. What does the author intend to convey through her story?A．Pet sitting is a new type of occupation.B．The Caribbean is an ideal travel destination.C．Travel blog is a superb way to gain popularity.D．Action should be taken to fight plastic pollution.；3. How did the author find her experience in the Caribbean?A．Significant. B．Challenging.C．Adventurous. D．Dreadful.；4. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?A．Changing Lifestyles by Pet SittingB．Unexpected Gains from Pet Sitting TravelC．Dealing with Global Environment PollutionD．The Availability of Pet Sitting in the CaribbeanBAn asteroid(小行星)is moving very fast toward Earth, threatening every human being on the planet. Humanity has one shot to save itself with brave, selfless heroes piloting a spacecraft into the universe to destroy the asteroid.But that’s the movies. On Monday evening, NASA sh owed what the reality was like. There was an asteroid, but it wasn’t threatening the Earth. And there was a spacecraft, relying on advanced technology from the Earth. The human heroes of the mission were actually at a physics and engineering lab between Ba ltimore and Washington, D．C．And there was a collision(碰撞). In this case it was the final act of the Double Asteroid Redirection Test(DART), a spacecraft that was launched in November, 2021 and then raced around the sun for 10 months as it pursued its target—a small space rock, Dimorphos, seven million miles from Earth.”For the first time, humanity has demonstrated the ability to change the orbit of an asteroid,“ said Ralph Semmel, director of the lab. In its last moments, the spacecraft sent back a series of photographs. DART had spotted Dimorphos only an hour earlier, as a dot of light. Then, Dimorphos grew bigger and bigger, until its surface filled the screen. The engineers were on their feet, cheering. ”Normally, losing signal from the spacecraft is ve ry bad,“ Semmel said. ”But this time, it was the ideal outcome.“With movies like ”Deep Impact“, Hollywood has long been enthusiastic about the prospect of disaster raining down from the universe. ”In reality, big asteroids that would cause planet-wide destruction occur very rarely, once every 10 million years or so. Hence, planners at NASA and elsewhere devote their attention to smaller ones in space, which would not set off mass extinctions, but can release more energy than a nuclear bomb. If any of those asteroids turns out to be on a collision course with Earth, the DART mission shows that changing its orbit is a realistic possibility.；5. What’s paragraph 1 describing?A．A movie plot. B．A natural disaster.C．A witness account. D．A virtual experiment.；6. What’s the mission of DART?A．Racing around the sun. B．Tracking asteroids in space. C．Changing the orbit of Dimorphos. D．Establishing a permanent space lab.；7. Why were the engineers cheering?A．They obtained clear desired photos. B．They made a safe landing from space. C．DART crashed Dimorphos into pieces. D．DART completed its mission successfully.；8. What’s the significance of the DART mission?A．Preventing the earth from being destroyed.B．Providing a solution to an asteroid impact.C．Fueling people’s interest in Hollywood movies.D．Increasing chances of humans going into space.二、七选五阅读People express their personalities in their clothes, their cars, and their homes. Because we might choose certain foods to ''tell'' people something about us, our diets can also be an expression of our personalities. For example, some people eat mainly gourmet foods, such as caviar (鱼子酱) and lobster (龙虾), and they eat only in expensive restaurants. 9Human beings can eat many different kinds of foods, but some people choose not to eat meat. 10 Their personalities might be similar too. For example, vegetarians in the United States and Canada may be creative people, and they might not enjoy competitive sports or jobs. They worry about the health of the world, and they are probably strongly opposed to war.11 One study shows that many fast food eaters have a lot in common with one another, but they are very different from vegetarians. They are competitive and good at business. 12 Many fast food eaters might not agree with this description of their personalities, but it is common picture of them.Some people also believe that people of the same astrological sign (星座) have similar food personalities. Aries (born under the sign of Aries, be tween March 21 and April 20) usually like spicy foods, with a lot of onions and pepper. People with the sign of Taurus (April 21 to May 22) prefer healthful fruits and vegetables, but they often eat too much. 13 Aquarius (January 21 to February 19) can eat as much meat and fish as they want, but sugar and cholesterol (胆固醇) are sometimes problems for them.B．Some people eat mostly fast food.C．They know about the “better things in life”.D．Vegetarians often have more in common than just their diet.E．People's personalities have something to do with their parents.F．Many people avoid alcohol, which makes the body lose too much water. G．Sagittarius (November 22 to December 22) like ethnic foods from many different countries.三、完形填空Children are naturally curious beings, but getting them to study something they aren’t interested in can be a difficult task. Teachers often find themselves trying to reward in the 14 of stars or threat of punishment. But what if rewards and threats aren’t the 15 ?Natural curiosity is sometimes referred to as “internal motivation”. Studies have found that children who see learning as 16 and important are better at it. And it’s easy to understand why —it’s difficult to study something we aren’t 17 .External motivation, things like rewards and punishment, does have its 18 too. Motives for achieving good grades or fear of being punished have been 19 to benefit older students. However, it seems that at an early age, it doesn’t have as much effect. So for this group, how can we stimulate that 20 ?According to some experts, the key is to 21 some degree of freedom. Let the child see their learning as their 22 will. If you want to teach a child to read, let them choose which book they use. Whether it’s a comic book or classic literature —the aim of stimulating their desire for reading is still 23 . Likewise, 24 a relationship with them as learners — listen to their negative feelings. Explain why an activity is valuable, even if it isn’t 25 fun.So it seems that the most 26 way of motivating children, especially the young ones, might 27 stimul ating that internal motivation. Maybe it’s time to release them from the reigns of threats and rewards, and give them a bit more 28 of how they learn.14. A．form B．name C．order D．right15.

2023届高三晚自习英语限时训练一、阅读理解AIn the field of educational technology, some apps might be getting too smart. There are more and more apps providing help for students.PhotomathThe new, seemingly magic app allows users to take pictures of a math problem, and then receive a step-by-step solution. A Photomath spokeswoman says educators have welcomed the app with positive reviews, but the app causes a lot of angry public discussion and disagreement. Why? It is because students can use it to cheat when doing their math homework.Price: FreeiHomework 2Whether you’re a high school student or a college student, there’s one thing you’ve got for sure: a lot of schoolwork. iHomework 2 can hep you keep track of all your homework. It can help you arrange it in a particular order according to types, or based on deadlines.Price: FreeWolframAlphaWolframAlpha is similar to Photomath, but it focuses on older students studying high levels of math. The service also produces step-by-step solutions to advanced topics, making it a popular tool for college students.Price: ¥18.00Homework HelperChinese Internet search company Baidu has launched an app called Homework Helper with which students can get answers to homework. Users post a picture or type their homework questions onto online forums, and those who answer the questions can win e-coins that can be used to buy some products. The app has more than 800 million users, much to the concern of many parents who argue that the students spend less time thinking about challenging problems.Price: Free1. How does iHomework 2 benefit students?A．By organizing homework in some order. B．By offering answers to homework. C．By keeping track of exam results. D．By setting the deadline for homework.2. Which app can help solve advanced math problems?A．Photomath. B．iHomework 2.C．WolframAlpha. D．Homework Helper.3. What is special about Homework Helper?A．It is free of charge. B．It has online forums.C．It can recognize pictures. D．It raises some concern.BOn Monday, a scientist and doctor Robert Winston is to formally ask a question in congress about what assessments the government has made “for requiring adults riding bicycles in city centres to heave a licence and third-party insurance”. The letter below is the entirely imagined response I would like the government to make to him.Dear Robert,You ask what assessments we’ve made for your proposal about obliging cyclists to have licences and insurance. The brief answer is: none. Nor do we have any plans to do so.Why? Again, the short answer is this: it’s a silly and pointless thing to suggest, as evidenced by the fact that practically no countries or territories anywhere in the world require cyclists to be licensed, or to have compulsory insurance.I suppose it’s only fair if I explain why I think it is such a non-issue. It’s pretty simple: such a plan would achieve pretty much nothing, while causing significant problems. More widely, any sensible governments will do everything in their power to get more people cycling, not to put pointless obstacles in their way.Let’s just take one example. As I’m sure you know as a doctor, one of the problems facing our nation is that the National Health System is likely to collap se under the caring for an increasingly overweight population. Inactive living is central to this. Even a fairly brief daily bike trip can have miraculous benefits for people’s health.Next, how would such rules even work? Would the licensing and insurance be just for adults, or also children? How would the system even be enforced-would it also require all bikes to be registered with number plates?Finally, what would you hope to achieve by this? If you believe licensing transport users stops wrongdoing, can I point to you the data showing how a third of drivers admit to using handheld phones while driving, despite the law forbidding it.So, to summarize：your plan would be to introduce a hugely new administrative scheme that would most likely have limited effect on the behaviour of averagely law-abiding (守法的) transport users who rarely harm others, while putting people off from this beneficial type of transport.I’m afraid I just don’t get it.4. What does Robert most probably want to know by asking the quest ion?A．whether the government has made efforts regarding his proposal.B．whether each bike rider has applied for a third-party insurance.C．whether the congress has sympathy towards the cyclists.D．whether doctors can receive the government’s support.5. What does the author think of the plan proposed by Robert?A．It may raise people’s insurance awareness.B．It can motivate people to obey the law.C．It imitates what other countries are doing.D．It is difficult to implement and enforce.6. The example in paragraph 6 is used .A．to draw people’s attention to overweight problemsB．to prove that cycling can cause problemsC．to explain why governments advocate cyclingD．to illustrate how broken the NHS is7. We can conclude from the passage that the author .A．holds prejudices against Robert WinstonB．is a pleasant and good-tempered personC．has the right to speak for the governmentD．is skilled in argumentative techniquesCMany children’s hospitals already have storytelling programmes that aim to cheer up patients. But new research suggests that storytelling also has physiological benefits. “Until now, the positive evidence for storytelling was based on ‘common sense’ that interacting with the child may distract, entertain and reduce psychological suffer ing,” said Dr Jorge Moll, of D’Or Institute for Research and Education (IDOR), Brazil. “But there was a lack of a solid scientific basis.”“During storytelling, something happens that we call ‘narrative transportation’. The child, through fantasy, can experience sensations and thoughts that transport him or her to another world, a place that is different from the hospital room, and is, therefore, far from the unpleasant conditions of hospitalization,” says Guilherme Brockington.The team, based at IDOR and the Federal University of ABC, Brazil, studied 81 children between the ages of two and seven, all of whom were in the intensive care unit (ICU) at a hospital in São Paulo. A group of 41 children each had a session with a storyteller, lasting 25 to 30 minutes. A control group of 40 children each had the same amount of time with the same professionals, but they told riddles instead. Before and after the sessions, the team took saliva samples from each child and assessed their pain level. The saliva samples allowed the researchers to measure levels of the hormone cortisol, which is related to stress, and the hormone oxytocin, which plays a role in empathy.Both groups of children benefited from the sessions: they all had less cortisol and more oxytocin in their saliva, suggesting they were less stressed, and they reported less pain and discomfort. However, the results were twice as strong for the storytelling group as the control group. At the end of the sessions, the children also took part in a word-associatio n exercise including words like ‘hospital’, ‘nurse’ and ‘doctor’. The team said that children from the control group said “this is the bad woman who comes to give me an injection” in response to the pictures of a doctor or a nurse, while the storytelling g roup said “this is the woman who comes to cure me”.“I consider this study to be one of the most important I have participated in, due to its potential direct impact on practices in the hospital environment, aiming at the relief of human suffering. We intend to support volunteering devoted to the noble activity of storytelling, now with more solid scientific evidence,” said Moll.8. According to the passage, “narrative transportation” indicates children .A．feel that they are placed into the world of a storyB．fire up their imagination and expand their horizonsC．have more empathy with the characters in the storiesD．experience the unpleasant conditions of hospitalization9. In Para.3, the author mainly tells the readers about .A．the application of the research B．the purpose of the researchC．the limitation of the research D．the process of the research10. How does the author present the findings of the research?A．By making comparisons. B．By giving definitions.C．By presenting examples. D．By analyzing cause and effect.11. Which of the following may be the response from the storytelling group?A．A hospital is the place where I go when I’m very sick.B．A hospital is the place where I get an injection in my arm.C．A hospital is the place where I am taken care of to feel better.D．A hospital is the place where I’ll have to take some medicine.二、七选五阅读How to Adjust to a New SchoolSchool is a base for students, where they learn to succeed. 12 When you go to a new school, you might worry that you don't know anyone. You worry that you might get lost, or if the teachers are strict. Here are some ways to help you adjust to a new school.Get to Know the SchoolBefore you start the school, go with your parents to visit the school. 13Prepare for the First DayBeing well rested will help you remove(去除) any nervousness you may be feeling.Try to get at least 8 to 9 hours of sleep if you're between 7 and 17 years old.Make sure you leave lots of time in the morning to get to school.

Sign up for activities like drama, sports or chess club. This willput you into smaller groups with people who have the same interests as yours. 14You might even be able to teach some other kids about how to do something.A．Go to school on timeB．Leave early for schoolC．Find out where your classroom will be, as well as other important places.D．Start off your first day of school with a good night's sleep.E．Learning the rules of the school will help you adjust and will kee p you out of trouble.

My mother was begging him to eat."No, no, no!" Fudge shouted. He made a terrible mess, dumping everything on the floor."Please stand on your head, Peter," my mother said. "__________""No!" I told her. "I'm not going to stand on my head anymore." I went into my room and slammed the door. I played with Dribble until suppertime. Nobody ever worries about me the way they worry about Fudge. If I decided not to eat they'd probably never even notice!That night during dinner Fudge hid under the kitchen table. He said, "I'm a doggie. Woof ... woof ... woof!"It was hard to eat with him under the table pulling on my legs. I waited for my father to say something. But he didn't.Finally my mother jumped up. "I know," she said. "If Fudge’s a doggie he wants to eat on the floor! Right?"If you ask me Fudge never even thought about that. But he liked the idea a lot. He barked and nodded his head.So my mother fixed his plate and put it under the table. Then she reached down and petted him, like he was a real dog.My father said, "Aren't we carrying this a little too far?"My mother didn't answer.Fudge ate two bites of his dinner.My mother was satisfied.After a week of having him eat under the table I felt like we really did have a family dog. I thought how great it would be if we could trade in Fudge for a nice cocker spaniel. That would solve all my problems. I'd walk him and feed him and play with him. He could even sleep on the edge of my bed at night. But of course that was wishful thinking. My brother is here to stay. And there's nothing much I can do about it.Grandma came over with a million ideas about getting Fudge to eat. She tricked him by making milk shakes in the blender. When Fudge wasn't looking she threw in an egg. Then she told him if he drank it all up there would be a surprise in the bottom of the glass.The first time he believed her. He finished his milk shake. But all he saw was an empty glass. There wasn't any surprise Fudge got so mad he threw the glass down. It smashed into little pieces. After that Grandma left.The next day my mother dragged Fudge to Dr. Cone's office.He told her to leave him alone. That Fudge would eat when he got hungry.I reminded my mother that I'd told her the same thing --- and for free! But I guess my mother didn't believe either one of us because she took Fudge to see three more doctors. None of them could find a thing wrong with my brother. One doctor even suggested that my mother cook Fudge his favorite foods.21. Which of the following can be used to fill in the blank in the passage?A. It's the only way he'll eat.B. Perhaps he will like it.C. Practice makes perfect.D. You will make it.22. What do you think a cocker spaniel is?A. A lovely baby.B. A kind of dog.C. Fudge’s toy.D. The family’s pet.23. What is father’s attitude toward Fudge’s eating under the table?A. He thinks it’s th e best way out.B. He doesn’t quite agree to the idea but has to accept it.C. He violently objects to the idea.D. He appreciates the idea very much.24. This passage is most probably ______.A. an advertisement for enrolling new employeesB. a school report at the end of an academic yearC. a self-introduction meant to apply for a jobD. a part of a recommendation letter from a university25. According to the “Experience” sectio n, we can infer that Donald Sloan can be_____ .A. a wise leaderB. a skillful performerC. a gifted scientistD. a good social worker26. From the passage we can learn that Donald Sloan ______.A. is good at singing and dancingB. is about to graduate from a universityC. has an interest in being a surgeonD. specializes in psychologyCYou never see him, but they’re with you every time you fly. They record where you are going, how fast you’re traveling and whether everything on your airplane is functioning normally. Their ability to withstand almost any disaster makes them seem like something out of a comic book. They’re known as the black box.When planes fall from the sky, as a Yemeni airliner did on its way to Comoros Islands in the India ocean June 30, 2009, the black box is the best bet for identifying what went wrong. So when a French submarine (潜水艇) detected the device’s homing signal five days later, the discovery marked a huge step toward determining the cause of a tragedy in which 152 passengers were killed.In 1958, Australian scientist David Warren developed a flight-memory recorder that would track basic information like altitude and direction. That was the first mode for a black box, which became a requirement on all U.S. commercial flights by 1960. Early models often failed to withstand crashes, however, so in 1965 the device was completely redesigned and moved to the rear of the plane – the area least subject toimpact – from its original position in the landing wells (起落架舱). The same year, the Federal Aviation Authority required that the boxes, which were never actually black, be painted orange or yellow to aid visibility.Modern airplanes have two black boxes: a voice recorder, which tracks pilots’ conversations, and a flight-data recorder, which monitors fuel levels, engine noises and other operating functions that help investigators reconstruct the aircraft’s final moments. Placed in an insulated (隔绝的) case and surrounded by a quarter-inch-thick panels of stainless steel, the boxes can withstand（抵挡）massive force and temperatures up to 2,000℉. When submerged（潜入水中）, they’re also able to emit signals from depths of 20,000 ft. Experts believe the boxes from Air France Flight 447, which crashed near Brazil on June 1,2009, are in water nearly that deep, but statistics say they’re still likely to turn up. In the approximately 20 deep-sea crashes over the past 30 years, only one plane’s black boxes were never recovered.27. What does the author say about the black box?A. It ensures the normal functioning of an airplane.B. The idea for its design comes from a comic book.C. Its ability to ward off disasters is incredible.D. It is an indispensable device on an airplane.28. What information could be found from the black box on the Yemeni airliner?A. Data for analyzing the cause of the crash.B. The total number of passengers on board.C. The scene of the crash and extent of the damage.D. Homing signals sent by the pilot before the crash.29. Why was the black box redesigned in 1965?A. New materials became available by that time.B. Too much space was needed for its installation.C. The early models often got damaged in the crash.D. The early models didn’t provide the needed data.30. What do we know about the black boxes from Air France Flight 447?A. There is still a good chance of their being recovered.B. There is an urgent need for them to be reconstructed.C. They have stopped sending homing signals.D. They were destroyed somewhere near Brazil.ＤGlobal warming is causing more than 300,000 deaths and about $125 billion in economic losses each year, according to a report by the Global Humanitarian Forum, an organization led by Annan, the former United Nations secretary general.The report, to be released Friday, analyzed data and existing studies of health, disaster, population and economic trends. It found that human-influenced climatechange was raising the global death rates from illnesses including malnutrition (营养不良) and heat-related health problems.But even before its release, the report drew criticism from some experts on climate and risk, who questioned its methods and conclusions.Along with the deaths, the report said that the lives of 325 million people, primarily in poor countries, were being seriously affected by climate change. It projected that the number would double by 2030.Roger Pielke Jr., a political scientist at the University of Colorado, Boulder, who studies disaster trends, said the Forum’s report was “a methodological embarrassment” because there was no way to distinguish deaths or economic losses related to human-driven global warming amid the much larger losses resulting from the growth in populations and economic development in vulnerable (易受伤害的) regions. Dr. Pielke said that “climate change is an important problem requiring our utmost (极度的) attention.” But the report, he said, “will harm the cause for action on both climate change and disasters because it is so deeply flawed (有瑕疵的).”However, Soren Andreasen, a social scientist at Dalberg Global Development Partners who supervised the writing of the report, defended it, saying that it was clear that the numbers were rough estimates. He said the report was aimed at world leaders, who will meet in Copenhagen in December to negotiate a new international climate treaty.In a press release describing the report, Mr. Annan stressed the need for the negotiations to focus on increasing the flow of money from rich to poor regions to help reduce their vulnerability(弱点) to climate hazards(危害)while still curbing (限制) the emissions of theheat-trapping gases. More than 90% of the human and economic losses from climate change are occurring in poor countries, according to the report.31. What is the finding of the Global Humanitarian Forum?A. Global temperatures affect the rate of economic development.B .Rates of death from illnesses have risen due to global warming.C. Malnutrition has caused serious health problems in poor countries.D. Economic trends have to do with population and natural disasters.32. What do we learn about the Forum’s report from the passage?A. It was challenged by some climate and risk experts.B. It aroused a lot of interest in the scientific circles.C. It was warmly received by environmentalists.D. It caused a big stir in developing countries.33. What does Dr. Pielke say about the Forum’s report?A. Its statistics look embarrassing.B. It is invalid in terms of methodology.C. It deserves our closest attention.D. Its conclusion is purposely exaggerated.34. What is Soren Andreasen’s view of the report?A. Its conclusions are based on carefully collected data.B. It is vulnerable to criticism if the statistics are closely examined.C. It will give rise to heated discussions at the Copenhagen conference.D. Its rough estimates are meant to draw the attention of world leaders.35. What does Kofi Annan say should be the focus of the Copenhagen conference?A. How rich and poor regions can share responsibility in curbing global warming.B. How human and economic losses from climate change can be reduced.C. How emissions of heat-trapping gases can be reduced on a global scale.D. How rich countries can better help poor regions reduce climate hazards. 三．任务型阅读How to Release CreativityAccording to most dictionaries, creativity is the ability to create. However, creativity is more than what is defined by the dictionary. It is an idea, a process, a thought。
