It went to the lady and 18 the thing at her 19 . When the lady went to pick it up, she gave a scream (尖叫). Can you guess what the dog’s present was?It was … a … man’s 20 !二.阅读理解AFor centuries, the body’s blood has been linked closely with the emotions.People who show no human emotions or feelings, are said to be cold-blooded killer.For example, the police are searching for a cold-blooded killer.He seems to kill for no reason, and no emotion, as if taking someone’s life as nothing.Cold can affect other parts of the body.T he expression “get cold feet” has nothing to do with cold or your feet.The expression means being afraid to do something you have decided to do.For example, you agree to be president of an organization.But then you learn that all the other officers have resigned, and all the work of the organization will be your responsibility.You are likely to get cold feet about being president when you understand the situation.The expression “give someone the cold shoulder” probably comes from the physical act of turning your back toward someone, instead of speaking to him face to face.You may give a cold shoulder to a friend who has not kept a promise he made to you.Or, to someone who has lied about you to others.A cold fish is not a fish.It is a person.But it is a person who is unfriendly, unemotional and shows no love or warmth.A cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone.Someone who is a cold fish could be cold-hearted.Now a cold-hearted person is someone who has no sympathy.Several popular songs in recent years were about cold-hearted men or cold-hearted women who, without feelings, broke the hearts of their lovers .Out in the cold means not getting something that everybody else got.A person might say that everybody but him got a pay raise---he was left out in the cold.And it is not a pleasant place to be.21.When you refuse to speak to a man and treat him in a distant way, you may express by “_________”.A.I think he is a cold-blooded man B.I give him the cold shoulderC.I think he is a cold fish D.I’m likely to get cold feet22.If Sue shows absolutely no reaction to those awful pictures of starving children in Africa, you will say _________.A.she is a cold fish B.she gets cold feetC. she is a cold-blooded killer D.she is out in the cold23.We can use the expression “__________” to describe a man who abandons or hurts his lover without mercy.A.cold-blooded B.cold shoulder C.cold feet D.cold-hearted24.The topic of this passage is about _________.A.the relationship between cold and our bodyB.some expressions about friendshipC.some expressions connected with coldD.how cold weather comes into beingB ★★Not all think laughter is the best medicine, but it seems to help.So scientists carried on a new study of diabetes (糖尿病)patients who were given a good dose of humor for a year to prove it.Researchers divide 20 high-risk diabetic patients into two groups.Both groups were given standard diabetes medicine.Group L viewed 30 minutes of humor of their choice, while Group C, the control group, did not.This went on for a year of treatments.By two months into the study, the patients in the laughter group had lower level of the hormones epinephrine (肾上腺素), considered to cause stress, which is known to be deadly.After the 12 months, HDL cholesterol rises 26 percent in Group L but only 3 percent in Group C.In another measure, C-reactive proteins, a maker of heart disease, drop 66 percent in the laughter group but only 26 percent in the control group.“The best doctors believe that there is a physical good brought about by the positive emotion, happy laughter,” said study leader Lee Berk of Loma Linda University.And other research has found that humor makes us more hopeful.Still, more study is needed, Berk said.The research by Berk found that humor can bring about similar changes in body chemistry, which was proved in the new study.The research result will be presented this month at the meeting in the US.Research at the University of Maryland School of Medicine shows that laughter causes the inner lining of blood vessels to expand, increasing blood flow in a way thought to be healthy.“Lifestyle choices have an important effect on health and these are choices which we and patients should pay attention to, rather than prevention and treatment,” Berk said in a statement this week.25.Why did the scientists carry on the new research?A.To discover the best medicine to cure diabetes.B.To find out if laughter was good to health.C.Because the number of diabetic patients is the largest in the world.D.Because diabetic patients need more laughter than other patients.26.After 12 months into the study, ___________.A.C-reactive proteins increase 66 percent in Group CB.the level of the hormones epinephrine stays the same in both groupsC.C-reactive proteins reduced 66 percent in Group LD.the level of the hormones epinephrine has dropped27.The underlined part “HDL cholesterol” in Paragraph 3 must be _______.A.something bad to our health B.a kind of dangerous diseaseC.a kind of wonderful medicine D.something good to our health28.In what way does laughter benefit people’s health?A.Blood is made thick by laughter.B.Laughter makes blood flow fast.C.Laughter increases blood pressure.D.Laughter makes blood vessels thin.29.According to Berk, we should _________.A. change our lifestyles B.choose lifestyles carefullyC.prevent our lifestyles in advance D.pay less attention to the positive emotion三.任务型阅读(注意:每个空格只填一个单词)Man y animal lovers would like to do more to help animals, but aren’t sure where to start or feel like they just don’t have the time. The good news is that there are many simple things you can do to help protect animals.Think twice before you decideThe decisions you make when it comes to eating meat or other animal products can go a long way toward stopping the killing of animals. Consider eating a vegetarian(素食的)diet. If you aren’t ready to make this change, there are still things you can do. Do not buy ani mal products from companies known to use practices that go against the law such as using drugs to increase milk production in cows.Help get the word outGetting the word out about the problems faced by animals can be as easy as putting up a notice on your car. Also, talk to your friends and family members about important issues that are related to animals. Give some simple advice to a friend with a new pet about the serious pet over-population problem we’re facing. Turn to some books on the subject if you are not so clear about the advice you give your friend.Write a letterWe’ve all heard the saying, “ The pen is more powerful than the sword”. Put this idea to the protection of animals. If a company has practices or rules that are harmful to animals, write them a letter to let them know you are angry about them, and that you won’t buy their products until they make some changes. Write letters to state and local legislators(立法者)to let them know how important it is that they support legislation that protects animals. Make them know that their actions will have a great effect on your vote.Be more lovingIf you’re considering adding a dog or a cat to your family, think about getting one from a homeless-animal house rather than buying a pet. There are many wonderful animals just waiting for a home. By taking back an animal from there, you will be helping in the fight against pet over-population, as well as giving your money to those who are responsible for taking care of pitiful animals.Let your actions be an example to othersIt may sound simple ,but one of the best ways to help animals is to let your actions speak to the world. You should do the following things first by yourself: Treat all living creatures with respect. Care about your pets and look after them well. Avoid entertainment places that use animals to perform. Support legislation (立法)that protects animals. All of these things set an example for others to follow.四.书面表达假如你是王莹,你的美国笔友约翰知道你已经升入高中,来电子邮件讯问你的学校生活,请根据下列要点,给他回一封电子邮件。

Then the boss took a letter from the top drawer of his desk. It was Herbie’s last letter from Riverside School—written a few days before he died. He had read it over and over again with sick pain. The letter read:I can’t say the boys here are any nicer to me than the others were.I guess it’s the same everywhere when you’re a cripple (跛脚的人). But don’t worry about me,Dad. They’ve got a good chemistry department here. And there’s one boy here who is really great.He’s a track star and boxing champ and just tops in chemistry. The boys call him Champ.

(2016·全国Ⅰ,D)The meaning of silence varies among cultural groups.Silences may be thoughtful,or they may be empty when a person has nothing to say.A silence in a conversation may also show stubbornness,uneasiness,or worry.Silence may be viewed by some cultural groups as extremely uncomfortable;therefore attempts may be made to fill every gap (间隙) with conversation.Persons in other cultural groups value silence and view it as necessary for understanding a person's needs.Many Native Americans value silence and feel it is a basic part of communicating among people,just as some traditional Chinese and Thai persons do.Therefore,when a person from one of these cultures is speaking and suddenly stops,what may be implied(暗示) is that the person wants the listener to consider what has been said before continuing.In these cultures,silence is a call for reflection.Other cultures may use silence in other ways,particularly when dealing with conflicts among people or in relationships of people with different amounts of power.For example,Russian,French,and Spanish persons may use silence to show agreement between parties about the topic under discussion.However,Mexicans may use silence when instructions are given by a person in authority rather than be rude to that person by arguing with him or her.In still another use,persons in Asian cultures may view silence as a sign of respect,particularly to an elder or a person in authority.Nurses and other care-givers need to be aware of the possible meanings of silence when they come across the personal anxiety their patients may be experiencing.Nurses should recognize their own personal and cultural construction of silence so that a patient's silence is not interrupted too early or allowed to go on unnecessarily.A nurse who understands the healing(治愈) value of silence can use this understanding to assist in the care of patients from their own and from other cultures. 【语篇解读】这是一篇议论文。

(2014·浙江,B)Here is some must-know information from a handbook on how people behave in doing business in some countries.In BrazilBrazilians are warm and friendly.They often stand close when talking and it is common for them to touch the person on the shoulder.People often greet each other (particularly women) with light cheek kisses.Schedules tend to be flexible,with business meetings sometimes starting later than planned.But to be safe,be on time.Meals can stretch for hours—there’s no such thing as rushing a meal in Brazil.Lunches also can start in the mid to late afternoon.Brazilians are social,preferring face-to-face communication over emails or phone calls.In SingaporeSingaporeans shake hands when they meet and often also greet each other with a small,polite bow.Business cards should be offered and received with two hands.Arriving late is considered disrespectful.So be on time.Efficiency(效率) is the goal,so meetings and dealings often are fast-paced.Singaporeans are direct in their discussions,even when the subject is about money.Rank is important and authority is respected.This determines how people interact in meetings.For example,people avoid disagreeing outright with someone of a higher rank.In the United Arab EmiratesIn the UAE,status is important,so the most senior or oldest should be greeted first with their titles.The handshake seems to be longer than elsewhere.So do not pull away from the handshake.Women should cover themselves when it comes to dress.Men also tend to be covered from neck to elbows(肘部) and down to the knees.People do not avoid entertaining in their homes,but they also hold business meals at restaurants.Touching or passing food or eating with your left hand is to be avoided.When meetings are one-to-one,if your host offers you coffee,you should refuse.It might seem odd,but it is a cultural tradition.Coffee should only be accepted if it is already set out or presented.In SwitzerlandThe Swiss tend to be formal and address each other by last name.They also arerespectful of private lives.You should be careful not to ask about personal topics.Punctuality (守时) is vital,something that comes from a deep respect for others’ time.Arrive at any meeting or event a few minutes early to be safe.They also have clear structure in their companies.Higher-ups make the final decisions,even if others might disagree.Neat,clean dress is expected.The Swiss follow formal table manners.They also keep their hands visible at the table and their elbows off the table.It is polite to finish the food on your plate.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。

2019-2020年高中英语每日一题第08周每周一测试题含解析新人教版选修

2019-2020年高中英语每日一题第08周每周一测试题含解析新人教版选修Ⅰ. 阅读理解Apassion is a desire within us to help others. With effort, we can translate passion into action. An experience last weekend showed me this is true. I work part-time in a supermarket across from a building fo r the elderly. These old people are our main customers, and it’s not hard to lose patience over their slowness. But last Sunday, one aged gentleman appeared to teach me a valuable lesson. This untidy man walked up to my register(收款机)with a box of biscuits. He said he was out of cash, had just moved into his room, and had nothing in his cupboards. He asked if we could let him have the food on trust. He promised to repay me the next day.I couldn’t help staring at him, I wondered what kind of person he had b een ten or twenty years before, and what he would be like if luck had gone his way. I had a hurt in my heart for this kind of human soul, all alone in the world, I told him that I was sorry, but store rules didn’t allow me to do so. I felt stupid and unkin d saying this, but I valued my job.Just then, another man, standing behind the first, spoke up. If anything, he looked more pitiable(可怜的).“Charge it to me” was all he said.What I had been feeling was pity. Pity is soft and safe and easy. passion, on the other hand, is caring in action. I thanked the second man but told him that was not allowed either, then I reached into my pocket and paid for the biscuits myself. I reached into my pocket because these two men had reached into my heart and taught me passion.1. The aged gentleman who wanted to buy the biscuits ________.A. promised to obey the store rulesB. forgot to take any money with himC. hoped to have the food first and pay laterD. could not afford anything more expensive2. Which of the following best describes the old gentleman?A. Kind and lucky.B. Poor and lonely.C. Friendly and helpful.D. Hurt and disappointed.3. The writer acted upon the store rules because ________.A. he wanted to keep his present jobB. he felt no pity for the old gentlemanC. he considered the old man dishonestD. he expected someone else to pay for the old man4. What does the writer learn from his experience?A. wealth is more important than anything else.B. Helping others is easier said than done.C. experience is better gained through practice.D. Obeying the rules means more than passion.5. How would the old men feel at the end of the story?A. Sad and disappointed.B. Happy and lucky.C. Depressed and unlucky.D. Surprised and grateful.BWalk through the Amazon rainforest today and you will find it steamy, warm, damp and thick. But if you had been there around 15,000 years ago, during the last ice age, would it have been the same? For more than 30 years, scientists have been arguing about how rainforests might have reacted to the cold, dry climate of the ice ages, but till now, no one has reached a satisfying answer.Rainforests like the Amazon are important for mopping up CO2 from the atmosphere and helping to solve global warming. Currently the trees in the Amazon take in around 500 million tons of CO2 each year: equal to the total amount of CO2 given off in the UK each year. But how will the Amazon react to the future climate change? If it gets drier, will it survive and continue to draw down CO2? Scientists hope that they will be able to learn in advance how the rainforest will manage in the future by understanding how rainforests reacted to climate change in the past.Unfortunately, collecting information is incredibly difficult. To study the past climate, scientists need to look at fossilized pollen(花粉) kept in lake mud, Going back to the last iceage means drilling down into lake sediments(沉淀物), which requires specialized equipment and heavy machinery. There are very few roads and paths, or places to land helicopters and aeroplanes. Rivers tend to be the easiest way to enter the forest, but this still leaves vast areas between the rivers pletely unsampled(未取样). So far, only a handful of cores have been drilled that go back to the last ice age and none of them provide enough information to prove how the Amazon forest reacts to climate change.6. How do scientists study the past climate change?A. By predicting the climate change in the future.B. By drilling down deep into land sediments.C. By analyzing fossilized pollen in lake mud.D.
