But that hardly seems the correct word because Matt Leung Ka-lun, a terrestrial(陆地的) life-science supervisor, doesn't conduct any training. Instead, he is content to take notes.While tourists happily snap photos of Le Le eating bamboo shoots, Leung observes just how much the panda eats, __________________________________________"Observation is a priority in my job. It plays an important role in helping to better attend to the pandas," he said.Leung previously noticed that Ying Ying, Le Le's female companion, only chewed with the left side of her jaw. After several examinations, the park's vets discovered that the teeth on the right side of her jaw were decayed, and___________________________________: "To prevent further decay and to minimize the impact on her diet, we treated the affected area with fillings. She can now chew on both sides."The Hong Kong native has been with the park since 2010, when he returned from the United States with a bachelor's degree in psychology. His first job was looking after An An and JiaJia, the park's senior pandas, which were sent as conservation ambassadors by the central government to mark the establishment of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region in 1997.Rapid urbanization and a shift in lifestyles are the key factors behind a 20-year increase in heart disease among Chinese, according to a Harvard University study.The study by the Harvard T.H.

高考英语六选四专题讲解

六选四考察要求概述选句填空"（俗称"六选四"）是2017年上海高考英语试卷中启用的题型。

根据题目要求，学生需从所给的六个选项中选取四个填入文中的空格处，使文章从内容、语言、结构上都符合逻辑。

考生在备考这一部分时,需意识到以下几点：1.虽然每一小题都要求选择正确的句子填入文中，但在文中不同的地方挖空，考査的能力要求也会有所不同。

如果空格处需填入主题句，考査的是对文本或段落的概括能力，如果空格处需填入能使上下文叙述连贯的细节，考査的则是对文章基本内容的理解能力。

因此，针对不同的空格，考生需要调整自己的思维方式，选择合适的策略；2.虽然本部分属于阅读理解这一大题，同样也考查考生的阅读理解能力，但是要注意这一题型与阅读选择题的差异。

选择题通过题干告诉考生考点在哪里，考査目标是什么，考生就可以据此选择合适的策略来答题，而"选句填空"则要求考生在理解文章内容和行文逻辑的基础上，自行判断空格处需填入句子的功能，再进一步选择合适的策略来答题。

基于以上分析，建议考生在完成"选句填空"这一部分时，可以采用以下步骤：1.通读全文，对文章内容有整体理解，包括文章的主题、写作的目的、毎一段的大意等; 2.阅读空格所在段落，尤其是空格前后句，判断空格处需填入句子的功能，并根据据后句的内容基本确定需填入句子的内容；3.阅读所给的六个句子，从中选择符合文章内容及行文逻辑的句子；4.通读填入句子后的文章，再次确认文章内容、语言、结构上是否符合逻辑。

二、六选四做题技巧指导1. 1.利用句子中心实词解题句子中心实词是指在一个句子表达中需要占据句子主干或者中心意思的一类实词。

和代词一样，当一个句子中出现了表达某一特点概念的中心实词时，该句上下文就应该围绕这样的中心来展开，也就是说正确选项中不能呈现上下文没有交代的一个中心实词，因此我们可以利用这一现象来帮助我们找到正常选项或者排除错误选项。

2017届上海英语高考新题型--6选4(1)

2017届上海英语高考新题型----六选四专题练习（一）(1)Have you got an addictive nature? Are you unable to stop yourself joining in with the latest obsession for collecting or doing something? This probably describes most of us because it's only human nature to not want to miss out on something that everyone else is talking about.Most fads arrive suddenly and enthusiasm for them spreads quickly. They become a talking point on social media; we read about them, give them a try and, before we know it, we are hooked. _________________________. Maybe you were the proud owner of a Rubik's cube, which became the best-selling toy of all time – around 350 million have been sold so far.Now, technology is driving the latest crazes(风靡一时的东西). In some parts of the world, flavour of the month is Pokémon Go – a game that uses augmented reality, where little virtual monsters pop up onto your phone and you have to catch them. And games such as Angry Birds and Minecraft are other crazes, available on smartphones and tablets, that have been hard to put down.Our keeness to participate in crazes has been analysed by experts. One of them, Dr Ben Michaelis, a clinical psychologist, explains that ________________________________ and this "hooks into an ancient evolutionary fear of being left behind or abandoned by our tribes"; we have to join in or lose out.Although becoming addicted to a computer game might not seem like a 'benefit', ______________________________________. It allows you to learn new skills and gives you something to talk about at parties!But fashions come and go and most fads are just a flash in the pan so if one of them is not your cup of tea, don't worry: ________________________________. Look at the addiction to the unsophisticated loom bands – those little rubber bands you could make jewellery and other things out of. For a brief period they were the must-have item for any schoolchild, now they're the bargain bucket item in a discount shop or worse still, trash filling up our landfill sites! What crazes have you been addicted to?（2）The Barking CoughYour child went to bed with a stuffy nose but he's been sleeping peacefully for a few hours. Suddenly, you hear what sounds like a barking seal over the baby monitor. ____________________________________What's probably causing it:Croup, a viral illness that causes inflammation in the larynx (voice box) and the trachea (windpipe). _________________________________, and it usually affects children ages 6 months to 3 years. The telltale cough usually gets better during the day but returns for two more nights. He may also make a high-pitched whistling sound (called stridor) when he inhales. Some kids tend to get croup every time they have a cold.How to help: When your child wakes up barking, bundle（穿的严实）him up and go outside , ___________________________. Or turn on a hot shower and sit with your child in the steamy bathroom for 15 to 20 minutes, since the warm, moist air also may help him breathe, says Parents advisor Jennifer Shu, M.D., editor of The American Academy of Pediatrics' Baby and Child Health. _________________________________ or he has stridor（喘鸣）that gets worse with each breath or lasts for more than five minutes. Between attacks, use a cool-mist humidifier（加湿器）in his room, and make sure he drinks plenty of liquids. Although croup usually resolves on its own, always call your doctor when you suspect it. Recent research has found that one dose of oral steroids（类固醇）-- which doctors used to prescribe only for severe croup -- may also be helpful for milder cases.DACFCAED。

2017届上海英语高考新题型----六选四专题练习（五）A three-year action plan (2014-2016) clearly identified major goals and priorities in green building development. ___________________________________________. Since 2014, all new buildings in Shanghai have to meet relevant green standards.As the supply of new construction land in the city is now subject to strict controls, urban renovation will likely provide a major driving force to green development.Meanwhile, ____________________________________________________, future buildings will become more “people-centric,” and people will pay more attention to green standards, say experts.In a presentation titled “LEED for Cities —New Platform toward Green and Smart City,” Nellie Cheng explained how LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) can help develop more sustainable, healthy buildings and communities by benchmarking how they are planned, developed and measured against global standards.In his presentation, Hasan A. Syed, principal and design director of Gensler, observed that people are frequently disconnected from their natural surroundings. _______________________________________.Syed identified four trends driving future urban design: Communities as ecosystems, urban connection to nature, modernization and preservation, and technological innovation.He pointed out that _________________________________________________.In Shanghai, the traditional lilong (lane houses) have been particularly affected. Hence the need for a new development model to retain traditional spaces and foster（促进）new aspirations. He explained how some of these aspirations are expressed in projects he’s been involved with, such as the Pujiang International Center and the Shanghai Tower.In designing the Shanghai Tower, for instance, it was found that a 120 degree spiral provided the optimal rotation and minimized wind loads by 24 percent, resulting in a lighter structure that saved US$58 million in structural material costs.A:it is critical to seek new sustainable models that preserve our cultural heritageas well as economic prosperity.B：the typical urbanization pattern in China has been to wipe an area clean and start over with new buildings whose scale and character ignore the local contextC:chinese buildings featured their height, construction, design in the worldD:clear standards have also been drawn up regarding the assessment of energy-saving efficiency in buildings.E: given rising standards of living and the demand for higher quality of lifeF: the plan is intended to standardize the building constructions in China including the high restriction on height , color, usage and so onD E A BSEVERE smog continued to shroud many parts of China, disrupting life in dozens of cities.The education bureau in Zhengzhou, capital of central China’s Henan Province, ordered all primary schools to cancel classes for the next two days.Northeast China’s Liaoning Province saw its most severe smog in seven years, with poor _____1____ closing 18 expressways.Tianjin airport _____2____ services between 8:30pm on Sunday and 10am yesterday, leaving 131 flights canceled and 75 delayed.

But we can do small things with great love.”Growing up, Jayesh Patel was nicknamed “toilet boy.” Since his father dedicated his life to improving sanitation, young Patel was assigned to cleaning public toilets everyday after school. Now Patel, 48, is an environmental advocate who has built over five hundred thousand toilets in Gujarat, India. I met him when visiting his sanitation institute.“________________________________________________. Through this, we create desire, stress, and misery,” said Patel. “But if we focus on the power of small, what we can do in this very moment, impact will naturally emerge if that’s what is needed in the world.”His philosophy is------_____________________________ The solution to big issues (like sanitation) begins with consistently completing small acts.In his own view, he does not necessarily need to change his entire urban lifestyle to live a better life —however, he consciously performs positive, daily actions and detaches himself from material desires.“I still eat at Pizza Hut and I turn on the air conditioner on a hot day. But I can also do without it,” said Patel. “One day my friend offered me to stay at a five-star hotel. The next day I slept on the streets and watched the night sky and stars.________________________”In modern life, children often grow up being told to “think big.”____________________________________________. In struggling to apply for colleges, to find profitable jobs, and ultimately a “better” life, students often forget the process — the small and consistent action steps that need to be taken.A: it was the same to me.B: we do ignore the small things that instead of understanding the reason why we do them.C: students are constantly taught to dream of future careers and how they can make a difference in theworld.D: small, everyday actions have the most impact.E: different places made me understand the large gap between the rich and the poor and I told myself tonarrow it.F: many times we get caught up with visible impact and we want to see results.FDACA recent survey puts Shanghai teens atop a global list of students doing the most homework .The survey said that according to a study by a European agency, middle school students in Shanghai spend an ___________of 13.8 hours per week on their homework, ____________ them first among the 65 countries and regions surveyed.As the father of a 12-year-old, I could not agree more, though I could only imagine the kind of joy my son would_____________ if he needs to put in a mere 13.8 hours a week on his homework.Take last Thursday as an example.

He complained of fatigue several times during his engagement, and exclaimed with _____________ relief well after 10pm.Unusual for him, while tackling his homework he insisted that both I and his mother peruse(研读) his composition. His piece was penalized only four points out of a total of 40 points — one of the best ___________ in the class. Some poorer writers, we were told, were required to rewrite the article. The next morning, when I went to wake him up at 6:40, I asked solicitously（关切地）if he was short of sleep. I said he could make it up that evening. I could promise this because it was Friday. To my surprise, he replied he had never slept better, for no sooner had he ____________ his head on his pillow than he fell into a deep sleep.After supper that evening, he declared to me, “In our times, the IQ of us children are way too high, particularly for the girls.”The academic excellence of local students had been widely cited lately, often in light of national pride and power. But when local __________ talk glowingly of how Shanghai students _____________ themselves in international primary or middle school mathematics contests, they never felt compelled to ___________on the costs of gaining this distinction.Childhood years are generally associated with carefree simplicity and innocence.

AAttending college can be expensive, and applying to college can be costly as well. With today’s college application fees averaging around $ 80, you can expect to spend hundreds of dollars on college before you are even accepted into a school.One of the easiest ways to save money on college application fees before you begin applying is to narrow down your list of schools. To save money, try to limit the schools to which you apply to about 2-3 reach schoolsand 2-3 safety schools.At some schools, being a relative of a graduate can secure you a free application. If you are applying to a school where one of your parents or grandparents is a former graduate, check to see if you’ re qualified for it.Research the preferred method of applying for each school on your list. Some schools offer free online applications, yet charge a fee for paper submissions. This is because online applications save schools the cost of employing a staff member to physically enter the applicationinformation.Several states, such as Michigan and North Carolina, take part in College Application Week, where many schools in the participating states cancel their application fee for the week. Be sure to contact the schools to I j which you are applying to see if they participate in College Application Week and when the program takes place in thatstate.Apply for early admission. If you have already decided on which college is your top choice, consider applying under an Early Action or Early Decision admission program. If you are accepted, you won’t have to submit applicationfees to other schools.For more information regarding college applications and the fees associated with them, contact your high I school advisor or the admissions department at your school(s)of interest.21.

It can be known from the passage that______,A. application fee might be canceled conditionallyB. many countries attend College Application WeekC. applying for early admission is the best policyD. admission departments determine your futureBEvery year, some 6.9 million children under the age of five die from diseases like malaria, pneumonia and HIV. The untold story of child survival is that the global community now has the combined knowledge, technical know-how and affordable tools to end such child deaths. Evidence shows that it is possible to decrease under-five death rates in developing countries to levels approaching those in wealthier countries.That is why 4 years ago — June, 2012 — the US, Ethiopia and India joined the United Nations Children’s Fund (or UNICEF) to launch Child Survival Call to Action, a global effort to save children’s lives. The goal was to lower child death rates in the hardest-hit countries to 20 deaths per 1,000 live births by the year 2035.Zambia started a plan focused on nutrition and immunization (免疫) that will save more than 26,000 children each year. Congo is distributing pre-packaged supplies to prevent and treat the most common killers. They hope to save the lives of half a million children by 2017. Similar efforts are taking place in Ethiopia, Bangladesh, Yemen, and elsewhere.Child Survival partner companies are also developinglife-saving vaccines (疫苗) and treatment for diarrhea. Private enterprisers and medical professionals are training and equipping health workers in 54 countries with life-saving tools. Still others are developing and delivering safe water treatment and storage products. “This high-level forum inspired a global movement —Committing to Child Survival: A Promise Renewed,” wrote UNICEF Executive Director Anthony Lake. “Four years passing, it continues to build and, today, 174 countries and over 400 civil society and faith-based organizations have taken up the charge in their own commitments. While we still have a long way to go, the first 4 years haveseen impressive gains.”25.

Child Survival Call To Action was founded to______.A. improve the living conditions for poor childrenB. decrease under-five death rates in some countriesC. raise some money to save children’s livesD. savechildren in the poorest countries27. What can be inferred from the passage?A. All diseases can be prevented or treated.B. Governments and partners joined the initial effort.C. Nutrition holds the key to lower the death rates.D. Only governments made their best to reduce the deaths.28. How does Anthony Lake feel towards Child SurvivalCall to Action?A. Time-consuming.B. Wasteful.C. Positive.D.Cold.CHow you feel and react to your environment on a day-to-day basis can be measured by your behavior, thoughts, and emotions. Your personality gives you away!There are four fundamental characteristics of personality. First, it is constant and people tend to behave in the same way when they meet similar situations. Second, personality not only influences actions, but it also actually causes people to behave in specific ways. Third, personality is influenced by both psychological and biological factors. Finally, personality isexpressed not only in behaviors, but through emotions, thoughts, social behavior, and close relationships. How the world distinguishes you is a direct reflection of and reaction to how you present yourself to them. Race, age, and sex are qualities you have no control over, but certainly contribute to your personality because of how the world senses you based on them. A person who continuously experiences racial discrimination may guard himself against it by at first seeming cold and unfriendly. But once he opens up, you may discover someone completely different inside.Physical ones, which you develop over time, also contribute to your personality, and include walking pace, eye contact, and facial expressions. How you want the world to see you influences how you present yourself to others. Characteristics such as altitude, response and general mindset create the surface of your one-of-a-kindpersonality.If you’re like many people, the aspects of your personality you choose to show might depend on the people you meet. For instance, the personality you exhibit around your boss is probably a lot different from thepersonality you show to your closest friends. All of these elements make up the “you” that only you truly know. And only you can decide when to share these parts of your personality with other colleagues.29. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. Some aspects of personality.B. Ways to developpersonality.C. What contributes to personality.D. Why personalityis important.30. It can be known from Paragraph 2 that______.A. one’s personality is merely determined by birthB. personality consists of behavior, thoughts andrelationshipsC. personality has nothing to do with one’s career lifeD. the environment and the situation influence one’spersonality31. The intended readers for the passage areprobably______.A. receptionistsB. studentsC. office clerksD.police officersDFor many. Daylight Saving Time (DST: 夏令时) simplymeans remembering to change the clocks and twisting your sleep schedule. “Even though the time change is only an hour, it is something that causes much more destruction than people believe,” said Dr. John Sharp, a psychologist and psychiatrist at Beth-Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston. “It’s not just an extra hour of sleep; it’s more of a fast-forward into winter.”With days getting darker earlier, Sharp suggests making a to-do list for activities after work ahead of time. “Any plans you have, say, going to the gym after work, require much more effort and determination. It’s much better to plan more carefully and not just rely on how you feel, especially when it is dark out,” he said. “Figure it out in advance and stick with the plan.”In addition. Sharp says in the weeks after Daylight Saving, some may feel like they have a bigger appetite. “Eating more during this time is not the answer. People need to stay on an eating schedule and keep up healthyhabits. ”However, Sharp said there are ways to better acclimate yourself to the time change. If you are having trouble sleeping, he suggests taking some melatonin (退黑激素)in the evening. In contrast, if you find yourself feeling sleepy. Sharp said there is nothing wrong with adding an extra caffeinated drink during your day.A word to the wise? One sure way to better adjust to the time change is to start going to bed 15 minutes earlier starting four days before Daylight Saving, adding an additional 15 minutes each night.32. Which is probably the best title for the passage?A. Are you prepared for DST?B. Why DST was introduced?C. What DST has brought to life?D. How DST has beenpopular?33. What does John Sharp suggest in Paragraph 2?A. Getting up earlier than before.B. Sticking to thedaily routine.C. Being aware of quality sleep.D. Gettingwell-prepared for DST.34. The underlined word “acclimate” in Paragraph 4 canbe replaced by______.A. adoptB. accelerateC. adaptD. acknowledge35. The passage is probably taken from______.A. a scientific reportB. an interviewC. a speechD.a statement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。

1. Evaluating Sources of Health InformationMaking good choices about your own health requires reasonable evaluation. A key first step in bettering your evaluation ability is to look carefully at your sources of healthy information. Reasonable evaluation includes knowing where and how to find relevant information, how to separate facts from opinions, how to recognize poor reasoning, and how to analyze information and the reliability of sources. 71 Go to the original source. Media reports often simplify the results of medical research. Find out for yourself what a study really reported, and determine whether it was based on good science. Think about the type of study. 72Watch for misleading language. Some studies will find that a behavior ―contributes t o or ―is associated with an outcome; this does not mean that a certain course must lead to a certain result. 73 Carefully read or listen to information in order to fully understand it.Use your common sense. If a report seems too good to be true, probably it is. Be especially careful of information contained in advertisements. The goal of an ad is to sell you something. Evaluate scientific statements carefully, and be aware of quackery(江湖骗术).74 Friends and family members can be a great source of ideas and inspiration, but each of us needs to find a healthy lifestyle that works for us.Developing the ability to evaluate reasonably and independently about the health problems will serve you well throughout your life.A. Make choices that are right for you.B. Be sure to work through the critical questions.C. And examine the findings of the original research.D. Distinguish between research reports and public health advice.E. Be aware that information may also be incorrectly explained by an author‘s point of view.F. The following suggestions can help you sort through the health information you receive from common sources.2Eyesight plays a very important role in our daily life. Every waking moment, the eyes are working to see the world around us. Over forty percent of Americans worry about losing eyesight, but it's easy to include steps into our daily life to ensure healthy eyes. Here are five suggestions for a lifetime of healthy eyesight:• Schedule yearly exams. 37 Experts advise parents to bring babies 6 to 12 months of age to the doctor for a careful check. The good news is that millions of children now can have yearly eye exams and following treatment, including eyeglasses.• Protect against UV rays (紫外线). Long-term stay in the sun creates risk to your eyes. No matter what the season is, it's extremely important to wear sunglasses. They can properly protect your eyes.• Give your eyes a break. Two-thirds of Americans spend up to seven hours a day using computers or other digital products. 38 Experts recommend that people practice the 20/20/20 rule: every 20 minutes, take a 20-second break and look at something 20 feet away.• 39 As part of a healthy diet, eat more fruits and vegetables each day. Vitamins C and E help protect eyesight and promote eye health.• Practice safe wear and care of contact lenses (隐形眼镜). Many Americans use contact lenses to improve their eyesight. While some follow the medical guidance for wearing contact lenses, many are breaking the rules and putting their eyesight at risk.40 Otherwise, you may have problems such as red eyes, pain in the eyes, or a more serious condition.A. Eat your greens.B. Eye care should begin early in life.C. Stay in good shape by taking more vitamins.D. Parents usually don’t care about their own eyesight.E. Always follow the doctor’s advice for appropriate wear.F. This frequent eye activity increases the risk for eye tiredness.3.The jobs of the future have not yet been invented. 37 . By helping them develop classic skills that will serve them well no matter what the future holds.1.CuriosityYour children need to be deeply curious. Encourage kids to cook with you. Ask kids, ―What ingredients (配料)can we add to make these pancakes even better next time ? And then try them out. Ingredients make the pancakes better? What could we try next time?2. CreativityTrue creativity is the ability to take something existing and create something new.38. There are a dozen different things you can do with them. Experimenting with materials to create something new can go a long way in helping them develop their creativity.3. Personal skillsUnderstanding how others feel can be a challenge for kids. We know what‘s going on inside our own head, but what about others? Being able to read people helps kid from misreading a situation and jumping to false conclusions. 39 . ―Why do you think she’s crying? ―Can you tell how that man is feeling by looking at his face? ―If someone were to do that to you, how would you feel?4. Self Expression40 there are many ways to express thoughts and ideas –music, acting, drawing, building, and photography. You may find that your child is attracted by one more than another.A. And we can’t forget science education.B. We can give kids chances to think about materials in new ways.C. So how can we help our kids prepare for jobs that don’t yet exist?D. Gardening is another great activity for helping kids develop this skill.E. We can do this in real life or ask questions about characters in stories.F. Being able to communicate ideas in a meaningful way is a valuable skill.4. Tips for Cooking on a Tight ScheduleFrom my experience, there are th ree main reasons why people don’t cook more often: ability, money and time,____37__Money is a topic I’ll save for another day. So today I want to give you some wisdom about how to make the most of the time you spend in the kitchen. Here are three tips for great cooking on a tight schedule:1. Think ahead. The moments when I thi nk cooking is a pain are when I’m already hungry and there is nothing ready to eat. So think about of the coming week. When will you have time to cook? Do you have the right materials ready? A little time planning ahead can save a lot of work later on.2. Make your time worth it. When you do find time to cook a meal, make the most of it and save yourself time later on. Are you making one loaf of bread? ___38___ it takes around the same amount of time to make more of something. So save yourself the effort for a future meal.3. ____39____ This may surprise you, but one of the best tools for making cooking worth your time is experimentation. It gives you the chance to hit upon new ideas and recipes that can work well with your appetite and schedule. The more you learn and the more you try, the more ability you have to take control of your food and your schedule.Hopefully that gives you a good start. ____40___ A nd don‘t let a busy schedule discourage you from making some great changes in the way you eat and live!A. Try new things.B. Ability is easily improved.C. Make three or four instead.D. Understand your food better.E. Cooking is a burden for many people.F. Let cooking and living simply be a joy rather than a burden.1.FCEA2. BFAE3. CBEF4.BCAF。

In fact, they move much more quickly than they should according to their size and the laws of physics.Scientists do not completely understand why the speed of these stars is so high. But many believe the reason is that much of the universe is made of something called “dark matter”. Groups of stars called galaxies, such as the Milky Way, might even be made up of 90 percent dark matter.How much something weighs depends on where it is. The same object weighs only half as much on Mars as it does on Earth and almost three times as much on Jupiter. So scientists prefer to talk about the mass (质量) of something rather than how much it weighs, because mass does not change. They can work out the mass of galaxies by measuring the distance between them and the speed they move at.Recently, Jorge Peñarrubia, a senior academic at Edinburgh University, UK, and his team discovered something interesting: The mass of the Milky Way is only half as much as the mass of another nearby galaxy, Andromeda. This seems strange, and dark matter may explain why.Finding out more about dark matter could help us understand how the universe began, but this is not easy. Lots of scientists with different types of expert knowledge are working on the problem.We can’t see dark matter, it’s very difficult t o measure and we can’t find out its mass. Unlike stars, dark matter doesn’t produce or reflect light. But we can make a good guess that it is there because of the way things move and the way light bends. Experts now think dark matter may be very different from the matter that we find on Earth. There may also be five times as much dark matter in the universe as ordinary matter.1.Something that weighs 15kg on Earth weighs about _____ on Mars and _____ on Jupiter.A. 7.5 kg, 45 kgB. 30 kg, 45 kgC. 45 kg, 7.5 kgD. 5 kg, 30 kg2.The author mentions the masses of the Milky Way and Andromeda mainly to_____.A. explain why the same object has a different weight on different starsB. compare the distance between the Milky Way and AndromedaC. show that studying dark matter could help to answer some scientific questionsD. support the idea that scientists prefer to talk about mass instead of weight3.Dark matter is difficult to investigate because _____.A. it travels at a very fast speedB. we can’t see where it is or measure its massC. it’s hard to measure the light it produces and reflectsD. it is much bigger than ordinary matter in size4.According to the text dark matter _____.A. could accelerate the speed of starsB. could lessen the mass of objects in galaxiesC. makes up the entire universe and its starsD. may help us identify the origins of the universeWhat's the most important thing in life?People's answers vary greatly. For British scientist Robert Edwards, the answer is having a child. "Nothing is more special than a child," he told the BBC.Edwards, the inventor of the In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) technology—more commonly known as "test-tube (试管) baby" technology—passed away on April 10, 2013 at the age of 87."Edwards changed the lives of millions of ordinary people who now rejoice (高兴) in the gift of their own child," said Peter Braude, a professor at King's College London. "He leaves the world a much better place."Edwards started his experiments as early as the 1950s, when he had just finished his PhD in genetics. At that time, much of the public viewed test-tube babies as "scary", according to Mark Sauer, a professor at Columbia University, US.Edwards and his colleague Patrick Steptoe faced opposition from churches, governments and media, not to mention attacks from many of their fellow scientists. "People said that we should not play God and we should not interfere with nature," Edwards once told Times. He said that he felt "quite alone" at the time."But Edwards was a fighter, and he believed in what he was doing," said Sauer. Without support from the government, the two struggled to raise funds to carry on. And in 1968 they finally developed a method to successfully fertilize human eggs outside the body.The first test-tube baby was born on July 25, 1978. Her name was Is Louise Brown. Despite people's safety concerns, Brown was just as healthy as other children."IVF had moved from vision to reality and a new era inmedicine had begun," BBC commented.Ever since then, public opinion has evolved considerably. Couples who were unable to have babies began thronging (拥向) to Edwards' clinic. Nowadays, Reuters reports, some 4.3 million other "test-tube" children exist. Edwards received a Nobel Prize in 2010 and was knighted (封为爵士) by Queen Elizabeth in the following year.Before his death, Edwards was still in touch with Louise. "He is like a granddad to me," she said in an interview with the Daily Mail.He is a granddad to millions, in fact.5.What’s the article mainly about?A. The first test-tube baby.B. A new era in medicine.C. The inventor of IVF technology.D. The changes IVF technology has brought.6.The writer mentioned Peter Braude to .A. show how difficult it was for Edwards to do his workB. describe what kind of person Edwards wasC. explain why he is loved by all childrenD. comment on his achievement7.The underlined word "opposition" in Paragraph 6 is closest in meaning to " "A. attackB. supportC. testD. influence8.What is the correct order of events in Edwards' life?a. He received a Nobel Prize.b. He struggled to raise funds.c. The first test-tube baby was born.d. He was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II.e. He succeeded in fertilizing human eggs outside body.f. He started his experiments on IVF technology.A. f-e-b-c-a- dB. f-b-e-c-d-aC. f-b-e-c-a-dD. f-e-d-a-c-bA warm drink of milk before bed has long been the best choice for those wanting a good night’s sleep. But now a study has found it really does help people nod off—if it is milked from a cow at night.Researchers h ave discovered that “night milk” contains more melatonin(褪黑激素), which has been proven to help people feel sleepy and reduce anxiety.The study, by researchers from Seoul, South Korea, involved mice being fed with dried milk powder made from cows milked both during the day and at night.Those given night milk, which contained 10 times the amount of melatonin, were less active and less anxious than those fed with the milk collected during daytime, according to the study published in The Journal of Medicinal Food.Night milk quickened the start of sleep and caused the mice to sleep longer.While the effect of cows milk harvested at different times has not been tested on humans up to now, taking melatonin drugs has been suggested to those who are struggling to fall asleep at night.Previous studies have also indicated that milk can be excellent for helping sleep because of the calcium content, which helps people to relax.Milk is also sugar-free and additive-free with nutritionists recommending skimmed milk as the best choice before bed as it is the least fattening. The more fat you take in before bedtime, the greater burden you will put on your body at night.9.According to the text, the mice fed with daytime milk_______.A. started sleep more easilyB. were less activeC. were more anxiousD. woke up later10.Which of the following is TRUE of melatonin according to the text?A. It’s used in sleeping drugsB. It exists in milk in great amountC. It can make people more energeticD. It’s been tested on mice for ten years11.What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Milk Drinking and HealthB. Fat, Sugar and HealthC. An Experiment on MiceD. Night Milk and Sleep12.How does the author support the theme of the text?A. By giving examples.B. By providing research results.C. By explaining statistical data.D. By stating argumentsIs it possible that the sinking of the Titanic was caused by a ghost? A lot of the story below is true… but did it really happen quite like this?Our story begins not in the icy cold waters of the North Atlantic, but rather thousands of miles away in Egypt. It is here, perhaps, that we can find the start of the mystery of the Titanic, in the year 1910, in the great city of Cairo. One day, a famous professor of Egyptian history called Douglas Murray was staying in Cairo, when he was contacted by an American adventurer.The American had something unusual to offer Murray, something that was certain to thrill him: a beautiful ancientEgyptian mummy case, containing the mummy of an Egyptian queen. It was over 3000 years old, but in beautiful condition ------ gold, with bright paintings on it. Murray was delighted with both the object and the asking-price. He gave the man a cheque immediately.The cheque was never cashed. That evening the American adventurer died. For his part, Murray arranged to have the treasure sent back to Britain. However, it was not long before he learnt more about the beautiful mummy case: On the walls of the tomb in which it had been discovered, there were messages which warned of terrible consequences to anyone who broke into the tomb. Murray was disbelieving of these warnings until a few days later, when a gun he was holding exploded in his hand, shattering his arm. The arm had to be cut off.After the accident, Murray decided to return to his homeland. On the return journey, two of his companions died mysteriously, and two servants who had handled the mummy also passed away. The now-terrified Murray decided he would get rid of the cursed case as soon as he arrived in London. A lady he knew named Janet Jones said she would like it, so he gave it to her. Shortly afterwards, Jones’ mother died, and she herself caught a strange disease. She tried returning the mummy, but naturally Murray refused it. In the end, it was presented to the British Museum.Even in the museum, the mummy apparently continued to cause strange events. A museum photographer died shortly after taking pictures of the new exhibit; and a manager also died for no apparent reason. In the end, the British Museum decided to get rid of the mummy too. They sold it to a collector in New York.At the start of April 1912, arrangements for the transfer werecomplete, and the mummy began the journey to its new home. But the New Yorker never received the mummy or its case. For when the Titanic sank, one of the objects in its strong room was the mummy case. Or so they say.13.In Paragraph 5, the underlined word “cursed” is closest in meaning to ______.A. forgottenB. uncommonC. unluckyD. expensive14.In what order did the following events occur?a. The case was given to the British Museum.b. Janet Jones caught a mysterious illness.c. Murray’s arm was cut off.d. The mummy case was sold to an American.e. A man who took a picture of the case died.f. Warnings were written on the tomb’s walls.A. f, c, b, a, e, dB. c, f, b, a, e, dC. d, f, b, c, a, eD. f, a, c, b, e, d15. According to the passage, where is the Egyptian mummy now?A. At the British MuseumB. In New YorkC. In EgyptD. Under the sea16.What’s the main pur pose of this passage?A. To introduce an important historical event to readers.B. To entertain readers with a story of mystery.C. To warn readers about the dangers of mummies’ curses.D. To inform readers about the true cause of the Titanic’s sinking.二、完形填空阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Before realizing what happened, she was presented a bunch of flowers by two pupils and led to the playground. Then the loving words “Thank you. Wish you health and peace!” from the broadcast wafted (飘荡) over the playground. As she stood in the middle of the playground, teachers switched on an iPod and around 350 schoolchildren, aged three to seven, broke into a specially designed formation. The teacher was moved to tears when pupils broke into a flash mob dance to mark her final day after 25 years.In fact, taking her health into account, the leadership of the school has advised Mrs. Gabica to retire from school many times, but she refused firmly. Despite having diabetes in 2011, suffering from pain after being hit by a car in 2014 and even having a sick son to care for many years, Mrs. Gabica persevered in teaching and staying with her pupils. If she did not come to the age for retirement, she would be bound to stay with her pupils because she has a deep love for her career. Her pupils spent three weeks learning their routine to The Lion King’s He Lives in You, which was one of the music lover’s favorites, being careful not to let their secret out of the bag. Obviously, Mrs. Gabica wasn’t prepared for such a memorable send-off.The headteacher Luke Mansfield said，“It was a wonderful way to celebrate all that Mrs. Gabica has done for the school. Since posting it we have had so many messages from former pupils who remember their happy times in her class. It’s a testament to the hard work and I think she deserves everything that she receives.”25. Which words can best describe the scene of the send-off?A. Surprising and inspiring.B.

The passage mainly tells us Mrs. Gabica _________.A. received many gifts on Teachers’ DayB. has achieved many honors in her careerC. was given quite a surprise on her final teaching dayD. was extremely welcomed by teachers and pupilsCUniversity can be the most sociable time of your life. For most students, social media is the glue that holds packed social diaries together. Facebook will let you know if a game is cancelled, Twitter can promote your DJ set in 140 characters, and your Instagram account will remind you when there are new photos.These tools have made the world increasingly connected, and most students wouldn’t consider shunning them at such a sociable stage of their lives. But social media is by no means a requirement at university, and many do without.“I’m a private person and don’t feel the need to share everything with everybody I know,” says Caty Forster, 20, a student at the University of Manchester, who has never usedFacebook or Twitter. Despite social media’s benefits, Forster is largely indifferent. Bethany Elgood, 25, stopped using Facebook after she discovered she had developed a bit of an anxiety towards the social media platforms that contain lots of personal details.”I quit Facebook when I was 13. I left because, not only was I bored of passively involved in its Newsfeed, I was also experiencing anxiety. To me, Facebook meant clicking and nosing around people’s lives.People would ask, “How do you keep in touch with people?” and “Won’t you miss out anything important?” I was in agr eement with Forster, who says, “I never feel like I’m missing out too much. I don’t feel like I’d have anything valuable to share or gain from it.”Adrienne Jolly, a careers advisor at UEA, says, “It’s hard to prove reliable statistics on social media. But it’s generally accepted that social media networks are pretty influential in this process—for better or worse.”You might decide quitting social media isn’t practical in the long run. However, if its ugly side is bringing you down, why not consider taking leave? By doing so, I gained confidence and a strong connection with reality.29. The author listed three kinds of social media to prove they _______.A. are important for him and others like CatyB. have the power to make students learn moreC. are frequently used by many university studentsD. should be used by all of the students in universities30.

What is the attitude of Adrienne Jolly to using social media online?A. She is completely against them.B. She herself refuses to use them.C. She is completely for them.D. She is objective.DMany runners and gym members feel that music makes exercise more enjoyable. However, they might not know that scientists have found that some kinds of music can improve people’s energy by 15%. This was discovered by Costas Karageorghis at Brunel University’s School of Sport and Education in London. Karageorghis has worked with organizations like Nike and with many champion athletes. In the study, 30 people listened to inspiring music by Queen, the Red Hot Chili Peppers and Madonna. They did exercise at the same time.When they were doing exercise in time with the music, people showed higher energy levels. Even when they were doing very hard exercise, they were positive about how they felt. When people are doing exercise, their nerves send messages saying that their body is getting tired. However, when they are listening to music at the same time, these messages are blocked. Karageorghis thinks this is because the music causes part of thebrain to send different messages to the body that make it feel happy and relaxed.Karageorghis’ work shows that different types of music can have different effects on different people. The effect of some music can also depend on how tiring the exercise is. Karageorghis said that outgoing people prefer faster and louder kinds of music compared to reserved people. This is because, for the music to have an effect, the brains of outgoing people need more stimulation than the brains of reserved people. Reserved people want to feel less worried and so have better results when the music makes them feel relaxed.Karageorghis was asked to provide music for the “Run t o the Beat” half marathon in the UK. “I have lots of other exciting projects that I am working on.” said Karageorghis. One of these is to find out if the speed of the music we listen to has an effect on our heart rate while we exercise.33. Why do people feel less tired when they exercise with music?A. Music makes people’s muscles relax.B. The brain blocks the part that sends messages.C. Positive messages instead of ones about feeling tired are sent to the body.D. Their nerves stop sending messages to the body in the process.34. According to Paragraph 3, which statement is TRUE?A. Reserved people do not want to be stimulated.B. Relaxing music worked better with reserved people.C. Outgoing people feel less worried about their lives than reserved people.D. Louder, faster music had a better effect during exhaustingexercise.35. The passage is mainly written ______.A. to recommend different types of music for different peopleB. to report on a study about how music can improve energy levelsC. to explore the different effects that different types of music have on peopleD. to describe our brains when we exercise while listening to music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。

2017上海高考英语阅读新题型六选四(一) Most drinks stating that they are fruit-flavored （水果味道的） contain no fruit at all, while most of the rest contain only a small quantity of fruit, according to a study carried by the British Food Commission． "Shoppers need to check the labels（标签）before buying drinks, though sometimes the actual content can be non-existent," said Food Commission spokesperson Lan Tokelove．"Food production is highly competitive．___1 __ It will increase profits, and consumers won't always realize they are being tricked." Flavorings are focused on the flavors of natural food products such as fruits, meats and vegetables, or creating flavor for food products that do not have the desired flavors．Researchers analyzed the contents of 28 strawberry-flavored products sold in stores． __2_ Of the 11 products that did contain strawberries, five of them contained less than one percent real fruit．In addition, each juice box contained nearly eight teaspoons of sugar． _3 _ Let's take jam as an example. Some strawberry-flavored jam was labeled as containing no artificial colors, flavors, or sweeteners, but it contained absolutely no strawberries at all.　The Food Commission suggested all flavors used in a product should be listed on the packaging.Consumers have the rights to know clearly about what they have bought．Under current UK law. Food packages do no not have to distinguish between natural and artificial flavoring. "Describing a product as strawberry flavor and covering the surface of the packed with pictures of stawberries is misleading. _4_ Unfortunatcly, it is also legal and widespread," Tokelove said. A．The products which contain real fruit are popular with people． B．Even products advertised as more natural often contained no fruit． C．They found that about 60 percent of them didn't contain any fruit at all． D．If companies can cut their costs by using flavoring, they are likely to do so． E．It is important and necessary to demand a small amount of flavoring in the products． F．Actually the product contains just a tiny percentage of strawberry oreven no fruit at all．(二)On a typical hot August day in Xianyou County, Fujian Province, Zeng Demei, a retired worker in his seventies, hurries down a busy street．In his hand is a black leather bag．Zeng opens his bag, taking out two forms．1_____.Each of the forms contains detailed information of a student．On his arrival two hours later a woman greets him and leads him to her office where another man is waiting．They are the two village officials．They inspect the forms handed to them by Zeng and immediately recognize the girls． 2 _____ ? "It’s a pity but it doesn't matter．" says Zeng, who wastes no time in deciding to look for the remaining child, Su Qiuju．After half an hour, they stop outside a small house made of mud brick．A middle-aged man and a girl in a faded pink dress greet them．Su Qiuju is eight years old．She was forced to drop out of school after both her parents died．She is now living with her uncle who cannot afford his own children's education．However, the year of education Su Qiuju did complete was a successful one． 3 _____ ．When they are about to leave, Zeng says, "I must find a supporter for this girl to sponsor her education．" Zeng has made it his retirement task to help children complete their schooling．Back in 1999, Zeng took part in a campaign started by the local women's organization to help students from poor families．He was so overcome by the tough situation of many poor children ?that he donated all his money to help out a girlHis task had begun and since then he has spent his time persuading his friends and neighbors and others to donate money．"To me, children's education is the most important． 4 I have to find sufficient funding before the school opens in September．"When asked how long he will keep up his vital work as the community's guardian angel, he has a simple reply．" Not until my eyes can't see, and my feet can't move．"A．They were having problems with their schoolworkB．These are for the two girls he's going to visit this morningC．They live in a small village not very far, though only one of the girls is still living at homeD．She displayed a talent for handwriting, writing her three-character name neatly and beautifullyE．The thought of students dropping out of school bothers me so much that I can't get to sleep at nightF．Of course, some people question why I would want to give up my retirement to go to so much trouble(三)Taking good notes is a time-saving skill that will help you to become a batter student in several ways. First, the simple act of writing something down makes it easier for you to understand and remember it. Second, your notes are excellent materials to refer to when you are studying for a test. Third, note-taking offers variety to your study time and helps you to hold your interest.You will want to take notes during classroom discussions and while reading a textbook or doing research for a report.1 Whenever or however you take notes, keep in mind that note-taking is a selective process.2 The following methods may work best for you.●Read the text quickly to find the main facts and ideas in it.●Carefully read the text and watch for words that can show main points and supporting facts.● Write your notes in your own words.● 3● Note any questions or ideas you may have about what was said or written.As you take notes, you may want to use your own shorthand(速记). When you do, be sure that you understand your symbols and that you use them all the time.4A. Use words, not complete sentences.B. There are three practical note-taking methods.C. You must write your notes on separate paper.D. Otherwise, you may not be able to read your notes later.E. you will also want to develop your own method for taking notes.F. That means you must first decide what is important enough to include in your notes.(四)　Building Trust in a Relationship Again Trust is a learned behavior that we gain from past experiences._1- Trust is a risk.But you can’t be successful when there’s a lack of trust in a relationship that results from an action where the wrongdoer takes no responsibility to fix the mistake. Unfortunately，we’ve all been victims of betrayal.Whether we’ve been stolen from，lied to，misled，or cheated on，there are different levels of losing trust.Sometimes people simply can’t trust anymore.—2--It’s understandable，but if you’re willing to build trust in a relationship again，we have some steps you can take to get you there..Learn to really trust yourself. Having confidence in yourself will help you make better choices because you can see what the best outcome would be for your well-being. -3--If you’ve been betrayed，you are the victim of your circumstance.But there’s a difference between being a victim and living with a “victim mentality”.At some point in all of our lives，we’ll have our trust tested or violated. ?You didn’t lose “everything”.Once trust is lost，what is left? Instead of looking at the situation from this hopeless angle，look at everything you still have and be thankful for all of the good in your life.-4-- Instead，it’s a healthy way to work through the experience to allow room for positive growth and forgiveness. A.It is putting confidence in someone. B.Stop regarding yourself as the victim. C.Remember that you can expect the best in return. D.They’ve been too badly hurt and they can’t bear to let it happen again. E.This knowledge carries over in their attitude toward their future relationships. F.Seeing the positive side of things doesn’t mean you’re ignoring what happened.(五). This Way to Dreamland Daydreaming means people think about something pleasant，especially when this makes them forget what they should be doing.Daydreamers have a bad reputation for being unaware of what’s happening around them.They can seem forgetful and clumsy.- 1- They annoy us because they seem to be ignoring us and missing the important things. But daydreamers are also responsible for some of the greatest ideas and achievements in human history.-2 --Can you imagine what kind of world we would have without such ideas and inventions? So how can you come up with brilliant daydreams and avoid falling over tree roots or otherwise looking like a fool? First，understand that some opportunities(机会) for daydreaming are better than others.Feeling safe and relaxed will help you to slip into daydreams.—3- And if you want to improve your chances of having a creative idea while you’re daydreaming，try to do it while you are involved in another task—preferably something simple，like taking a shower or walking，or even making meaningless drawings. It’s also important to know how to avoid daydreams for those times when you really need to concentrate.“Mindfulness”，being focused，is a tool that some people use to avoid falling asleep.—4- Finally，you never know what wonderful idea might strike while your mind has moved slowly away. Therefore，it’s a good idea to keep a notebook or voice recorder nearby when you’re in the daydream zone.Always remember that your best ideas might come when your head is actually in the clouds. A.Having interesting things to think about also helps. B.They stare off into space and wander by themselves. C.Without wandering minds，we wouldn’t have relativity，Coke or Post-it notes. D.At one time，daydreaming was thought to be a cause of some mental illnesses. E.It involves slow，steady breathing for self-control that helps people stay calm and attentive. F.Daydreams are often very simple and direct，quite unlike sleep dreams，which may be hard to understand.答案:(一) D C B F (二).BCDE (三). EFAD (四) A. D B F(5). BCAE。
