She looked outside and walked back, for it was so dark in the hall that she feared.Her mother said, “Don’t be afraid, honey. Take courage!”“What’s courage?” she asked, running to her mother’s bed.“Courage is the brave breath,” her mother answered.“Mum, do you have courage?”“Certainly.”The girl held out her little hands, saying, “Mum, blow some of your breath of courage to me.”After her mother blew out two mouthfuls of breath into her little cold hands, the little girl clenched her fists(握拳) nervously, afraid thatthe “breath of courage” would run away. Then with her fists clenched,she walked out of the bedroom towards the bathroom with nothing to fear.Her mother said to herself, “It will be nice if someone can blow some kind of ‘breath’ to me.

I see it in their feet.” he said. “If people keep moving their feet, I just let them go, because I know they’re impatient with me. I don’t want to make people uncomfortable.“What about me? I asked.“I could see your compassion. And then you came down to my level.I was the one who was nervous.” he said. “I don’t normally have someone look me in the eye.”“They don’t know what they’re missing,” I told him.“My old face is no thing to brag(自夸) about.” he said.“But that smile is so big.”Yes, and it’s not only a big smile but an attitude.41.The disabled man knew people were impatient mostly by their _________.A. wordsB. eyesC. feetD. smile42.The unlined word compassion is the closet in meaning to___________.A. attentionB. pityC. trustD. duty43.We learn that the disabled man _________.A. had great difficulty looking after himselfB. always asked people for helpC. couldn’t have a big smileD. liked to talk about people’s shoes44.The writer felt comfortable because _________.A. he had a nice talk to the manB. the man looked him in the eyeC. he didn’t move his feet before the manD. the man had a big smile on the face45.We can infer from the passage that _________.A. the disable man had something wrong with his mindB. not many people went down to the man’s levelC. the man was good at telling people about the worldD. the writer would not give the man move helpD.My name is woof.

湖南省长沙市长郡中学2022-2023学年高一上学期入学检测英语试题

湖南省长沙市长郡中学2022-2023学年高一上学期入学检测英语试题学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解Four popular children’s booksQue Cosas Dice Mi AbuelaSpanish-speaking parents will love this fun book—which was translated into “The things my grandmother says” —in which a grandmother teaches manners (规矩) to her grandchildren and their friends using traditional Spanish-language sayings. Written in the voice of a little boy talking about his regular day, this book will draw the interest of both adults and kids.I Like Myself!Parents won’t mind reading the story over and over to their kids because as they pass along the message that their kids are perfect just the way they are—no matter their untidy hair, or whether they are fast or slow, their kids will learn about confidence.Dragons Love Tacos(炸玉米饼)While books with a deep message are great, sometimes you and your child just want to read something silly to get the laughs rolling. The New York Times bestseller, Dragons Love Tacos is a great read for kids and parents as it talks about how much dragons really love tacos, but when they eat something spicy (辛辣的) you had better watch out! The book has more words than some of the other picks on our list, so this might be fit for a preschoolers and up.The Little Fingers and Ten Little ToesAs everyone knows nothing is sweeter than small baby fingers and cute baby toes and here, from two of the most gifted picture books, readers could enjoy a different joyful world and also bring the happy feelings to everyone, everywhere, all over the world!1.Who will choose the first book?A.Parents who want to make their children laugh.B.Parents who want their children to become polite.C.Parents who want their children to become more confident.D.Parents who want their children to read special stories.2.Why will parents like to read I Like Myself! to kids many times?A.It has more words than other books.B.It encourages kids to be confident.C.There are some beautiful pictures in it.D.It contains many funny games for kids.3.Which of the books will Tom choose if he’s interested in animals?A.Que Cosas Dice Mi AbuelaB.I Like Myself!C.Dragons Love TacosD.The Little Fingers and Ten Little ToesWhen I was a teenager, I wrote postcards to show my friends the new places I had explored every time my family took a vacation. I considered postcards as simply a way to share travels until I came across my grandmother’s postcard album.It was a dark gray leather album, where most of the postcards had pictures that did not reflect a holiday or a travel destination. Instead, the notes were mostly invitations to a dinner party or, a walk the next day.“Why do these postcards ask you to come to tea?” I asked my grandmother. “Because this is how we communicated before we had a telephone,” she said. “I would post a postcard in the morning mail, and a friend would receive it that afternoon. Then she would post a reply that arrived in my mail the next morning.”I was surprised. Life without a phone sounded like something out of the world. Connecting by postcard seemed as unexpected as using a carrier pigeon (信鸽). I had forgotten about my grandmother’s postcards until lockdowns (封锁) restricted our trips to seeing our three granddaughters. Remembering my grandmother’s album, I bought several sets of cards and every few weeks, I’d write notes and mail them. The girls sometimes responded with brief thank-you texts.Then one day I opened my mailbox and spotted three hand-addressed envelopes. They were from my granddaughters, each thanking me for the postcards. The notes captured their disappointment with the pandemic and described how my messages had comforted them.I had been thinking how my grandmother had accepted the telephone as a new way to keep relationships. Like her, I accepted the girls’ preferred mode of communication and texted my thanks for their letters. However, even as the lockdowns end, I will continue tosend them postcards because everyone enjoys receiving a real letter.4.Why did the author’s grandmother write postcards?A.To share off her travel experiences.B.To show love and care.C.To kill the time.D.To keep in touch with people. 5.What did the author think of life without a phone?A.It was unbelievable.B.It was peaceful.C.It was just as usual.D.It was attractive.6.How did the author feel when receiving her granddaughters’ letters?A.Disappointed.B.Regretful.C.Delighted.D.Embarrassed. 7.Which one should be the title for the text?A.An Old Postcard Album B.New Ways of CommunicationC.Love during Lockdowns D.Attraction of PostcardsDo you like Chinese traditional painting and dance? They are two important parts of the traditional Chinese art. But what about when they meet each other?This year, a dance drama titled Poetic Dance: The Journey of a Legendary Landscape Painting (《只此青绿》) was staged on CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala and became popular.According to CCTV, this poetic dance program was inspired by the 900-year-old Chinese painting A Panorama of Rivers and Mountains (《千里江山图》). Created by Song Dynasty painter Wang Ximeng at about 18, the painting is amazing in its sweeping size, rich coloration and the expressive details, reported CCTV. It shows a Chinese blue-green landscape: “mountains and groupings of infinite (无限的) rise and fall between cloudless sky and rippling (涟漪的) water”.When the dancers moved elegantly, audiences seemed to be looking at the moving mountains and rivers. “It brings me a pure experience of beauty. It is not only a drama but also an exhibition. Vast mountains and rivers are coming to life!” Internet user Mo Weisha wrote in a review. “More than a thousand years later, green mountains and rivers still impress people as they did long ago.” Some people even decided to watch the dance again when it was staged in the theaters later. In fact, in recent years, more and more modern shows feature Chinese traditional culture and have received warm welcome. As for the reason, it is due to people’s great love for traditional culture.“The younger generations have grown up with a more open mind. They accept Chineseculture and are proud of it.” Yao Wei, director of Henan TV Station’s Innovation Center, told China Daily.8.What’s the writing purpose of Paragraph 1?A.To show a doubtful attitude.B.To introduce the topic.C.To describe the art world.D.To raise a question.9.What inspired the poetic dance?A.CCTV’s Spring Festival Gala.B.Song Dynasty painter Wang Ximeng.C.A Chinese blue-green landscape.D.An ancient Chinese traditional painting.10.Why did this poetic dance enjoy welcome?A.Traditional culture is accepted and loved by people.B.Green mountains and rivers greatly impress people.C.The poetic dance can be staged in the theaters later.D.Increasing modem shows feature Chinese traditional culture.11.What’s the main idea of the whole passage?A.It explains why Chinese art enjoys popularity.B.It shows us art can come to life through dance.C.It highlights the beauty of Chinese traditional art.D.It tells us the passion for Chinese traditional painting.A new study has found that all dogs have different personalities—even dogs of the same breed (品种).Elinor Karlsson studies genetics at the University of Massachusetts. She co—wrote a report about the study, which appeared recently in the publication Science.Karlsson said, “Every dog really is an individual,” noting that there is “a huge amount of difference” even between dogs that look the same.At a New York dog park, dog owners talked about the different characteristics of their pets. Elizabeth Kelly owns an English springer spaniel. She called her dog friendly, but also “kind of the queen bee.” In other words, her dog likes to act like it is in charge of other dogs. Suly described her yellow Labrador as “calm, lazy and shy.”The idea of dog breeds is quite recent. Around 160 years ago, humans began to breeddogs to have certain physical qualities, such as fur, color and ear shape.Karlsson said her aim was to learn how much a dog’s breed affects their behavior. The answer? Breed does not decide an individual dog’s personality.Karlsson’s team gathered information from 18,000 dog owners and studied the genetic code of over 2,000 dogs. The researchers found that some qualities are based on genetics. However, it is not sure that two dogs of the same breed will behave in the same way.For example, huskies and beagles, may be more likely to howl—or make a long, loud barking sound. But many of these dogs do not howl, as owner observations showed. 12.What do we know about Karlsson’s report?A.She wrote it by herself.B.It was published in Science.C.She finished it after graduation.D.It is of little value to her study.A.A bee that behaves busily.B.A dog whose name is Queen.C.A bee that serves the whole group.D.A dog acting as if it is the most important.14.What is the purpose of Elinor Karlsson’s study?A.To help dog owners learn about their dogs better.B.To prove dog breeds determine their personalities.C.To study the tie between dog breeds and behaviors.D.To show different dogs have different personalities.15.What does the author want to tell us in the last paragraph?A.All the dogs can make a long, loud barking.B.Dogs of the same breed can behave differently.C.Dogs’ owners may observe their pets carelessly.D.Huskies and beagles are not the same dog breed.二、七选五Universities are doing everything they can to become a green campus. But there are also items students can do to make your campus more eco-friendly.1. Recycle everything, especially paper!There is a large amount of paper a college student goes through every term. 16 We know that these things can’t be avoided, but the way you handle the use of all the paper can really help create a better green campus.2. Buy green.17 Paper, cleaning products and water are products that can be bought as recycled goods. They’re slightly more expensive than the normal products, but it’s worth it to make a green campus.3. Walk and bike to school.Most campuses, especially those that are trying to become a more eco-friendly campus, have pretty good public transit (公共交通系统). 18 Walking or biking will help make your campus a green university.4. 19A water bottle can be refilled at any water fountain and can easily be drunk in class or while riding a bike. This will save the environment by decreasing the amount of plastic waste on your campus.5. Buy used clothing.It is usually thought of as something to do to save money. 20 Recycling clothes minimizes the use of resources to make clothing and puts a dent in the problem of worldwide sweatshops.A.Carry a water bottle.B.It includes class notes, term papers, student newspapers and so on.C.Besides, almost all universities are pedestrian (步行者) friendly.D.Paper made of this kind of wood is much stronger.E.Buy recycled goods as much as possible.F.It is also good for the environment!G.Universities call on all the students to learn to recycle all the waste paper.三、完形填空My husband Adlai and I often went camping to celebrate special occasions.

It happened while he was driving his garbage truck through wealthier neighbourhoods at night and seeing abandoned books. It aroused his desire to start rescuing books from the garbage. He used to take home between 50 and 60 books every morning. Eventually, he turned his book collection into a community library for children from low-income families.Colombia’s capital city of Bogota has 19 public libraries. However, these libraries tend to be far away from where rural and poorer communities live. The option of buying new books is non-existent for families struggling to make ends meet. Gutiérrez’s community library is a true representation of how one man’s garbage can be another’s treasure.Gutiérrez grew up poor, and his family could not afford to educate him beyond primary school. Nevertheless, his mother was a passionate reader and read stories to him every night. Her love for books left a deep impression on Gutiérrez.Today, his makeshift community library, called “The Strength of Words”, occupies most of his home in southern Bogota, and is piled from floor to ceiling with fiction and non-fiction titles. Everything from school textbooks to storybooks can be found in his collection of more than 20,000 books! As the word began to spread about his amazing project, people began sending him many more books to grow his library.Despite having done so much for his community, Gutiérrez is not yet content to call it a day. He continues to search through garbage cans for reading materials. Today, the Gutiérrez family does not merely want to start libraries in neighbourhoods. They want to create spaces for school children to spend their time reading.Gutiérrez’s journey to give back to his local community is an amazing example of howevery one of us can improve the lives of those around us. How might we take a leaf out of Gutiérrez’s books and impact the less fortunate around us?4.What inspired Gutiérrez to rescue unwanted books?A.The abandoned Anna Karenina.B.Leo Tolstoy’s life.C.Children’s living conditions.D.A community library.5.Why did Gutiérrez start “The Strength of Words”?A.To create a harmonious neighborhood.B.To give his mother sufficient books.C.To promote children’s reading.D.To improve the community life.6.What can best describe Gutiérrez?A.Devoted and talented.B.Intelligent and generous.C.Passionate and well-educated.D.Creative and caring.7.What would be the best title for the text?A.Desire for Reading B.From Garbage to TreasureC.Gutiérrez’s Life D.An Amazing Model of EducationI wanted to set myself the writing challenge of citing some of the many positive things about having a baby. It’s addressed to one person, but I hope that those who find themselves at a similar crossroads get help from it.To my friend A,All you ever seem to hear about parenthood is negative. I do not feel this. You create a new life in that child, and with that baby, you get a new life, too. When I became a mother, my own mother’s embrace, and my father’s, not to mention my extended family’s, have kept me going.We are used to hearing about how motherhood limits your life, less so about how it can expand it. I have always believed that life is fundamentally about human relationships, and havinga baby has enhanced mine. Becoming a mother—and giving birth—has enhanced my feelings of unity with other women. Parenting has also allowed me to experience childhood again. I have always wanted to give someone else a childhood. My wide-eyed little boy is at the stage where he is simply in love with the world, and that love is thrillingly unconditional. It is a privilege to witness, and it makes me determined to maintain it for him as much as I am able to, because his laugh is the best sound that I have ever heard.A note about sleep: you will be OK—you’ve had enough wild nights to know you can cope. And you can get your body back, whatever that might mean to you. As for your career, it’s normal to worry. I speak only for myself when I say that I wish I had spent less time worrying beforehand about how I would write. I have far less time, now, but I’m still writing. Even a paragraph a day adds up to a novel, eventually. There is so much untapped joy and love there waiting for you, and I hope I’ve given you a small glimpse of some of it to hold on to.8.Who might be the intended audience for this article?A.Self-centered parents.B.Those fearing to have a baby.C.Broken-hearted friends.D.Those avoiding marriage.9.How does the author mainly make her arguments convincing?A.By explaining ideas.B.By quoting sayings.C.By comparing facts.D.By concluding opinions.10.Why does the author give examples of her writing in the last paragraph?A.To show how successful she was as a writer.B.To note that where there is a will there is a way.C.To tell her friend that giving birth is a piece of cake.D.To persuade her friend not to worry about her career.11.Which column may the article be chosen from?A.Opinion.B.Headline.C.Health.D.Culture.For decades, scientists thought of the brain as the most valuable and consequently most closely guarded part of the body. Locked safely behind the blood-brain barrier, it was broadly free of the harm of viruses and the battles started by the immune system (免疫系统). Then, about 20 years ago, some researchers began to wonder: is the brain really so separated from the body? The answer, according to a growing body of evidence, is no.The list of brain conditions that have been associated with changes elsewhere in the body is long and growing. Changes in the makeup of the microorganisms in the digestive system have been linked to disorders such as Parkinson’s disease. There is also a theory that infection during pregnancy could lead to brain diseases in babies.The effect is two-way. There is a lengthening list of symptoms not typically viewed as disorders of the nervous system, but the brain plays a large part in them. For example, the development of a fever is influenced by a population of nerve cells that control body temperature and appetite. Evidence is mounting that cancers use nerves to grow and spread.The interconnection between the brain and body has promising implications for our ability to both understand and treat illnesses. If some brain disorders start outside the brain, then perhaps treatments for them could also reach in from outside. Treatments that take effect through the digestive system, the heart or other organs, would be much easier and less risky than those that must cross the blood-brain barrier.It also works in the opposite direction. Study shows mice have healthier hearts after receiving stimulation to a brain area involved in positive emotion and motivation. Activation of the brain reward centre — called the ventral tegmental area (VTA) — seems to cause immune changes that contribute to it. Working out how this happens could help to destroy cancers, enhance responses to vaccines and even re-evaluate physical diseases that, for centuries, have not been considered as being psychologically driven.12.What do the researchers focus on about the brain?A.Its protecting system.B.Its exposure to diseases.C.Its controlling function.D.Its connection to the body.13.How does the author support his idea in paragraph 2?A.By explaining a theory.B.By providing examples.C.By making comparisons.D.By presenting cause and effect. 14.Which best describes treatments that do not cross the blood-brain barrier?A.Cheaper.B.More specific.C.Safer.D.More direct.15.What does the study suggest in the last paragraph?A.Brain health depends on immune changes.B.Brain stimulation leads to negative emotions.C.The brain can help enhance psychological health.D.The brain may be key to treating physical diseases.For many websites, there is tons of information that’s inaccurate, or just crazy. 16 With that in mind, here are four ways to find reliable websites.Look for established institutions (确立的机构). 17 However, what you want are sites associated with trusted institutions that have been around for a while and have a proven track record of reliability. Such sites may include those run by government agencies, nonprofit organizations or universities.Consult sites with expertise (专门知识). You wouldn’t go to the hospital to have your car repaired. This is an obvious point. 18 For example, if you’re writing a story on a flu outbreak, check out medical websites like The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.Avoid commercial (商业的) sites. Sites run by companies and businesses—their websites usually end with “.com”—are often trying to sell you something. And if they’re trying to sell you something, chances are whatever information they’re presenting will be tilted (偏向) in favor of their product. 19 But be cautious (谨慎).20 Respected websites often link to each other. You can find out which other websites link to the site you’re researching by conducting a link-specific Google search. If lots of sites are linking to your site, and those sites seem reliable, that’s a good sign. Then it seems that you don’t need to worry too much.A.Check the links.B.Enter the following text into the search field.C.Look for websites that specialize in what you’re seeking.D.If a website seems old, it’s probably best to keep distance from it.E.The Internet is full of websites that were started five minutes ago.F.That’s not to say commercial sites should be screened (屏蔽) entirely.G.For inexperienced researchers, these sites can cause a wide range of problems.二、完形填空Anna was a 9-year-old girl from a small village.

湖南省长沙市长郡中学2023-2024学年高一入学考试英语试题学校:___________姓名:___________班级:___________考号:___________一、阅读理解A WONDERFUL NIGHT A T CHANGSHA AQUARIUM(海洋馆)Have you ever seen sea animals at night? What do they do? Eat? Sleep? Swim? Let’s go and enjoy the happy time.Time:6:30 p.m.~8:30 p.m. on Saturday.* You can enjoy dinner at our restaurant under the water from 6:00 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.*You can’t eat anything while you are watching the sea animals.*Each tour costs 15 yuan. You can buy the tickets at the gate of the aquarium.*You can decide which tour you will join after you arrive at the aquarium.1.If you want to enjoy 4 tours, how much will you pay for them?A.15 yuan.B.30 yuan.C.45 yuan.D.60 yuan. 2.What can’t you do while you are watching the sea animals?A.Feed the fish.B.Eat food.C.Take pictures.D.Walk with the penguins.3.How long can you enjoy the activities at the aquarium at most in on enight?A.Half an hour.B.One hour.C.One and a half hours.D.Two hours.Energy is the ability to do work. Solar energy comes from the Sun.There is also energy that comes from wind and water.But do you know that energy can come from people, too? When you pedal a bike, you produce energy. You use your legs to push the pedals. Your energy is transferred(转移) to the bike. That makes the bike move.Now imagine riding your bike to create enough power to run a computer. Some students at one school did just that! They jumped on bikes connected to generators(发电机) and pedaled in place. Soon they were producing electricity. This energy is needed to run their computers.Here is how bicycle-powered energy works. When a student pedals the bike, the back wheel spins(旋转). The wheel spins the generator. The generator produces electricity. As long as a student pedals the bicycle, electricity moves through the generator. The electricity can be used right away. This energy can also be stored and used later.People use bicycle-powered energy to run small devices(设备) such as small televisions and fans. They often use less than 100 watts per hour. However, it would be a mistake to use pedal power to run a fridge. This large machine often uses more than 700 watts per hour. The electricity for these machines comes from power lines overhead or underground.Pedal power can be seen in schools, gyms, and homes. What a fun way to provide electricity!4.How does the writer lead into the topic “bicycle-powered energy”in Paragraph 2?A.By asking a question.B.By telling a joke.C.By using an old saying.D.By making a survey.5.What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?A.The future of new energy.B.The forms of world’s energy.C.Producing bicycle-powered energy.D.Using bicycle-powered energy.6.What do we know about bicycle-powered energy?A.It can’t be seen in schools.B.It can be stored and used later.C.It comes from wind and water.D.It’s from power lines overhead.People believe that every word has its correct meaning (s). When we are not sure, we usually check online, or turn to our teachers or dictionaries. But do you know how dictionaries were made in the past?Dictionary writers first read the important books of the period or the subject that the dictionary was about.As they read, they copied necessary information on cards: interesting words, common words — both in their daily uses and unusual uses, and also the sentences where they were used. That is to say, the words, along with the uses of each word, were collected. For a really big dictionary, millions of such cards were collected. This task could last for years. As the cards were collected, they were put in alphabetical order (A -Z). When this was done, there would be several hundred cards for each single word.Then, to define (定义) a word, the dictionary writer placed its hundreds of cards before him. He read the cards closely, threw away some, read the rest again, and divided up the cards according to what he thought were the common uses of the word. Finally, he wrote the definitions, following the hard-and-fast rule: each definition must come from an example on a certain card in front of him.So, the writing of a dictionary was not a task of inventing meanings of words, but a task of recording their meanings. The writer of a dictionary was a historian, not a law maker.As time develops, the way of producing dictionaries has greatly changed. Nowadays, we can use online dictionaries too. When choosing our words in speaking or writing, we can be guided by the dictionary. However, we cannot be controlled by it, because new situations, new experiences, new inventions, and new feelings are always pushing us to give new uses to old words.7.Why did dictionary writers read important books?A.To know more about the period.B.To collect words and their uses.C.To understand different subjects.D.To learn to use interesting words.8.Which shows the correct steps of how dictionaries were made in the past?A.①—①—①—①B.①—①—①—①C.①—①—①—①D.①—①—①—①9.What can we learn from the passage about dictionary writing in the past?A.It was long-time hard work.B.It was a task of inventing and recording.C.It should be done by historians.D.It had to use the law-making rules.10.What does the writer advise us to do when we choose words in communication?A.Try to create new words.B.Follow the dictionary strictly.C.Use online dictionaries instead.D.Be open to the new uses of words.It is often said the laughter is the best medicine. But researchers at the University of Oxford think the ability to belly laughs (捧腹大笑) was unique to early humans. This, they believe, made our ancestors (祖先) able to form much larger groups.The researchers first tested the pain thresholds (临界值)of some volunteers. They divided them into two groups. One group was shown15 minutes of comedy videos, while the other was shown boring programs.Through this experiment, the researchers found that those who had recently experienced belly laughs were able to withstand (忍受) up to10% more pain than they had done before watching the videos. To their surprise, the scientists also found that the other group was less able to with stand pain after watching 15 minutes of the “boring” programs.Professor Robin Dunbar of Oxford University, who led the research, believed that belly laughs release chemicals called endorphins (安多芬) into the body which make us feel less painful.However, not all comedy programs had such effects, according to Prof Dunbar. For example, though clever stand-up comedy was found to be enjoyable, it had no effect onraising pain thresholds.“Things that worked very well were interesting comedies such as Mr. Bean. Situation comedies such as Friends also seemed to be particularly successful,”he added.In order to measure (测量) endorphin levels, the researchers put a bag of ice on the volunteers’ arms to see how long they could withstand them. They found that the greater the increase in pain thresholds, the greater the amount of endorphins produced.The purpose of Prof Dunbar’s study was not to develop a new treatment. Instead, it was to study the role of laughter in the forming of human societies two million years ago.“The next stage will be to see whether laughing really allows people to keep together and work as a group better and be more friendly towards each other. If that is the case, then it may explain why some two million years ago, the first humans were able to form large communities of up to 100,”Dunbar added.11.Prof Dunbar’s study was to _.A.test the pain thresholds of humansB.measure the endorphin levels while laughingC.develop a new kind of medicine that reduces painD.explore the influence of laughter in forming human societiesA.watch some scary films B.watch some beautiful picturesC.watch some boring programs D.watch some comedy videos13.The meaning of the underlined word “release” in the passage may beA.look out B.stand out C.find out D.give out 14.What did the researcher do to measure the level of endorphins?A.Let the volunteers watch videos.B.Ask the volunteers to live in the lab.C.Make the volunteers have medicines.D.Put ice bags on the volunteers’ arms.15.What can we know from the last paragraph?A.More experiments about laughter will be carried out.B.Laughter makes people keep together and work as a group.C.People who laugh a lot are more friendly towards each other.D.The first humans could only form small communities less than 100.二、七选五In a video, someone cuts open a coconut(椰子), pours its juice and takes away meat in about five seconds. What does it take to master a skill like that?Many people see it as a rule that says, “Just spend a lot of time practicing.” 16 Many studies have shown that to improve our skills, we cannot just practice, but must use “deliberate(刻意的) practice”.So what is deliberate practice? Imagine you want to become a professional violin player. You can already play some great pieces. Do you get better by only playing those same pieces over and over again? Or do you try to learn new songs? 17 “Deliberate practice” is different from “common practice”. It requires feedback(反馈) and constant(不断的) challenges to yourself.18 Teachers can find mistakes and make corrections. But they cannot be there for us every step of the way. So we must be able to provide our own feedback and learn from our own mistakes. 19 If you are a runner who can run 100 meters in 12 seconds, you can try to achieve the same success in 11 seconds or even 10 seconds. Even if you are already the best in the world at something, your goals to challenge yourself and do better should never disappear.“Professional” coconut openers can complete their tasks in five seconds. 20 The only difference between them is that professional openers make efforts to constantly improve themselves, while others are just continuing to “practice”.A.But it is not the real reason.B.Constant challenges are pretty easy.C.There are others who take much longer.D.They offer us something that we need.E.Do you also record yourself and listen for mistakes?F.Feedback commonly comes from teachers and ourselves.三、完形填空I knew Marty’s magic was fake (假的), but I just couldn’t prove it. One day I caught ahad a ring in one hand and a pencil in the other.That’s when I 22 it: a thin piece of fishing line around the end of the pencil and attached (连接) to Marty’s shirt! Sure enough, he made it by sliding (滑动) the ring over the pencil and hanging it from the line. No one else 23 the line, and soon the whole dining hall was cheering. When the crowds were gone, I walked over. It was time to 24 the Magic Marty show.“I know how you did it,” I said, looking him right in the eye.“ 25 ,” Marty replied. “But the first law of magic is that…”“It was the fishing line.”Marty became 26 . He looked a bit worried. Without all his confidence, he seemed more normal (平常). I suddenly felt bad.“So, are you going to tell other people?” he asked. I thought about it for a moment. If I did, I would 27 be able to prove that Marty’s magic was fake. But would that really make me feel happy? What about Marty? He might 28 his new friends. How would that make him feel?“Nah,” I said. “It will be a 29 between you and me.”Marty let out a relieved sigh, and I turned to walk away.“Wait!” Marty jumped in front of me. “You’ve got a pretty good eye for magic. If you’re 30 , I have an idea.”That’s how the Magic Marty and Mysterious Matt Lunch Show began. 21.A.disappear B.grow C.float D.change 22.A.saw B.heard C.felt D.smelt 23.A.confirmed B.explained C.noticed D.supported 24.A.watch B.praise C.end D.create 25.A.Indeed B.However C.Maybe D.Anyway 26.A.polite B.silent C.crazy D.curious 27.A.finally B.properly C.easily D.mainly 28.A.make B.leave C.lose D.greet 29.A.secret B.trick C.present D.reward 30.A.surprised B.interested C.satisfied D.impressed四、用单词的适当形式完成短文五、英汉互译阅读下面短文,将划线部分译成英文或中文。

You shouldn’t walk alone outside. Make sure where the public phones are.

Seven others were so badly damaged (破坏) that their owners had to leave them, and fifteen others had broken windows or broken roofs. One person was killed,several were badly hurt and taken to hospital, and a number of otherpeople received smaller hurt.

Good SoldiersCA long time ago, there was an emperor who told his horseman that if he could ride on his horse and cover as much land area as he liked, then the emperor would give him the area of land he would have covered.Sure enough, the horseman quickly jumped onto his horse and rode as fast as possible to cover as much land area as he could. He kept on riding and riding, whipping the horse to go as fast as possible. When he was hungry or tired, he did not stop because he wanted to cover as much as possible.Finally, the horseman came to a point where he had covered a big area but was exhausted and dying. He asked himself, “Why did I push myself so hard to cover so much land area? Now I am dying and I need only a very small area to bury myself.”The story above is similar with the journey of our life. We push very hard everyday to make more money, to gain power. We don’t pay attention to our health, time with our family and to appreciate the surrounding beauties and the hobbies we love. One day when we look back, we will realize th at we don’t really need that much, but then we cannot turn back time for what we have missed.Life is not only about making money, getting power. Life is definitely not only about work! Work is only necessary to keep us living so as to enjoy the beauties and pleasures of life. Life is a balance of work and play. You have to decide how you want to balance your life. Define your priorities, and realize what you are able to compromise. Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of life, the whole aim of human existence.So, take it easy! Do what you want to do and appreciate nature. Life is fragile; life is short. Do not take life for granted. Live a balancedlifestyle and enjoy life!36.What did the horseman get at the end of the story?A.He got nothing.B. He got much land area.C.
