Inspired by exciting dreams for the possibilities of womanhood, she asked her daughter what she wanted to be when she grew up. Little Lisa quickly answered, “A nurse.”There was a time when nursing was thought of as a woman’s job and the answer somehow seemed not to be satisfied. She had, after all, just returned from a new meeting.“You can be anything you want to be,” she re-minded her daughter. “You can be a lawyer, a doctor, a banker, president of the country — you can be anything.”“Anything?” Lisa asked.“Anything!” her mother smiled.“I know,” Lisa said. “I want to be a horse!”Lisa’s dream may need some improvement, but there is plenty of time for that. When do we give up dreaming about the future? When do we resign (听任) ourselves to simply replaying dreams from the past?Maybe her dream needs to mature (成熟) a bit, but would you rather have the optimism (乐观) of a five-year-old girl who wants to be a horse, or the pessimism (悲观) of an adult who says in despair, “I can’t be anything at all”?Teddy Roosevelt said, “Keep your eyes on the stars and your feet on the ground.”I believe that is the way to make those dreams come true. So everyone need look up and dream of something beautiful while working hard to the dream.5. What did the girl really want to be when she grew up?A. A nurse.B. A horse.C. A banker.D. A lawyer.6. How did the mother feel when hearing her daughter’s first answer?A. Satisfied.B. Puzzled.C. Disappointed.D. Excited.7. The lesson we can learn from the passage is that we should ______.A. stop children dreaming of something strangeB. advise parents how to educate childrenC. encourage adults to learn from childrenD. help children to set up a big goal8.

Distances and speeds, however, are posted in kilometers per hour and some signs, particularly in Quebec, may only be in French.Unless otherwise posted, the maximum (最大限度的) speed limit in Canada is 50km/hr in cities and 80km/hr on highways. On rural highways, the posted speed limit may be 100km/hr. It is illegal to take automobile radar detectors (汽车雷达检测器) into Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba, and the Yukon. In Canada,seat belt use is required by law for all people, and child car seats must be used by children under 40 pounds. Some provinces require drivers to keep their vehicles’ headlights on during the day and some have banned (禁止) driving while using a hand-held cell phone. Motorcycles cannot share a lane (车道), and safety helmets for motorcycle riders and passengers are necessary. Running a red light is a serious crime throughout Canada and drivers are advised to stop before starting when a light turns green.Winter travel can be dangerous due to heavy snowfalls and icy conditions. Some roads and bridges are often closed in winter. Snow tires are required in some provinces. Travelers should also be careful about animals while driving at night in rural areas.Highway 401, from Detroit to Montreal, is one of the busiest highways in North America. It has been the scene of many deadly traffic accidents due to sudden and severe weather changes, high rates of speed, and heavy truck traffic. Thus drivers should be alert while travelling here.Please refer to our Road Safety page for more information.

More than one hundred experts express their ideas on the website.BigThink also has an important list of financial (财政的) supporters. These include Peter Thiel who helped create the PayPal company; Larry Summers, a former United States secretary of the Treasury, and David Frankel, a businessman from South Africa.BigThink’s creators started the website by first getting famous people to agree to be videotaped(录像).

AA License to HealSteven Bentley, M.D.$11.95 soft coverIn the world of emergency medicine, there are pain and blood, but there are also hope and compassion(同情). A License to Heal shows readers the stories from an ER(emergency room) doctor that brings this world to life. In this book, an emergency room physician describes the world of the ER—as one filled with pain and fear, but also compassion, hope, and a surprising amount of humor.Batting Rocks over the BarnLawn Griffiths$19.99 soft coverCountry life during the 1950s and 1960s comes alive through the eyes of an Iowa boy who grew up to become a newspaperman and farm editor. Follow his stories in Batting Rocks over the Barn.HoneyballPete Liebengood$17.99 soft coverA group of women pull together in a campaign to find success at the box office while their leader finds the love of her life and the persons responsible for the death of her father in a plane crash.The Armageddon VirusRobert Gallant$16.95 soft coverTravis Weld, leader of a secret government team pursuing(追踪) terrorists, discovers the meaning of a phone message from someone offering to sell a deadly newvirus to an illegal weapons(武器) dealer. Can he track the seller and secure this mysterious Armageddon virus?21.Which book is probably written by a doctor?A.Honeyball.B.A License to Heal.C.The Armageddon Virus.D.Batting Rocks over the Barn.22.What do Batting Rocks over the Barn and Honeyball have in common?A.They can be found on the same website.B.They tell stories of the same time.C.They focus on the same topic.D.They cost the same.23.Which of the following can best describe the story in The Armageddon Virus?A.Humorous. B.Touching.C.Common. D.Thrilling.BIn 1845, a deadly disease struck the farms of Ireland, killing all the Lumper potato plants. In another place or time, the death of a single crop species might not have been so important. But in Ireland, in 1845, people depended almost on the potato for food. The death of one species caused a terrible famine. Now, some scientists are worried that such a famine could happen again.Over the centuries, farmers have discovered thousands of different species of food crops. Some can be grown in very hot or cold climates. Others are not affected by certain diseases. However, you won’t find many of these species in your local supermarket. To feed the seven billion people on Earth, most farmers today are growing only species of plants that are easy to produce in large numbers. Meanwhile, thousands of other species are becoming extinct.For example, in the Philippines, there were once thousands of varieties of rice; now fewer than 100 are grown there. Experts believe that over the past century, we have allowed more than half of the world’s food varieties to disappear.One solution to this problem is to collect and store the seeds(种子) of as many different plant varieties as we can before they disappear. The idea was first suggested by Russian scientist Nikolay Vavilov. In the 1920s and 30s, he collected around 400,000 seeds. More recently, others are continuing the work he began.In the U.S. state of Iowa, Diane Ott Whealy wanted to protect historic plant varieties. She started a place called Heritage Farm, where people can store and trade seeds.More importantly, the people at Heritage Farm don’t just store the seeds; they plant them. By doing this, they are reintroducing foods into the marketplace that haven’t been grown for years. These food species are not just special in flavor. They also offer farmers food solutions for the future, from the past.24.What caused many people to die in Ireland in 1845?A.Food pollution.B.Poisonous potatoes.C.An uncurable disease.D.Lack of enough food.25.What does the underlined word “Others” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.Species of food crops. B.Potato plants. C.Farmers.D.Seeds.26.Why does the author mention the Philippines?A.To show many food species have disappeared.B.To explain how to increase food production.C.To stress the importance of food diversity.D.To prove the necessity of growing rice.27.Which statement would Diane Ott Whealy probably agree with?A.It’s dangerous to grow new food species.B.The work started by Nikolay Vavilov was useless.C.Storing seeds and planting them are both important.D.Foods grown from older seeds are cheaper but taste bad.CWearable sensors (传感器) could one day interpret the gestures in sign language and translate them into English,providing a high­tech solution to communication problems between deaf people and those who don't understand sign language.Engineers at Texas A & M University are developing a wearable device that can sense movement and muscle activity in a person's arms.The device works by figuring out the gestures a person is making by using two sets of sensors:one that responds to the motion of the wrist and the other to the muscular movements in the arm.A program then wirelessly receives this information and changes the data into the English translation.“Most of the technology was based on vision­based or camera­based solutions,” said study lead researcher Roozbeh Jafari,an associate professor of biomedical engineering at Texas A & M University.These existing designs, Jafari said,are not enough,because often when someone is talking with sign language,he or she is using hand gestures combined with specific finger movements.“I thought maybe we s hould look into combining motion sensors andmuscle activation,”Jafari told Live Science.“And the idea here was to build a wearable device.”The researchers have built a system that can recognize words that people use most commonly in their daily conversations.Jafari said that once the team starts expanding the program,the engineers will include more words that are less frequently used,in order to build up a more substantial vocabulary.One drawback of it is that the system has to be“trained ” to respond to each individual that wears the device,Jafari said.This training process involves asking the user to repeat or do each hand gesture a couple of times,which can take up to 30 minutes to complete.28.How does the new device work?A.By figuring out gestures from fingers.B.By connecting the wrist and the fingers.C.By linking the arm and the fingers.D.By collecting information from the wrist and the arm.29.The researchers eventually decided on a wearable device to ________.A.make it easier to monitor the gestures when people are talkingB.make the translation process fasterC.compete with existing designsD.make it user­friendly30.We can replace the underlined word in Paragraph 4 by “ ________ ”.A.necessary B.influentialC.extensive D.essential31.What can we infer from the text?A.The device has greatly increased in sales.B.The device still requires much improvement.C.We should work out of 30 minutes.D.We should be trained to respond quickly.DIt was about five in the morning in Ontario,Canada,when Donna Strickland's phone rang.The Nobel Prize committee was on the line in Stockholm,calling to tell her she had won the prize in physics.“I wondered if it was a joke,” Strickland said in an interview with a Nobel official after the call.She had been asleep when the call arrived.“Something was wrong because it came so early in the morning.But then I knew it was the right day,and it would have been a cruel joke.”Strickland,an associate professor at the University of Waterloo,shares thehonor with two other scientists for their work in the 1980s in transforming lasers (激光) into tiny tools that today have countless applications.The prize money of $1.4 million will be shared among the three.Half of the prize went to Strickland and her cooperator Gérard Mourou,a professor at the École Poly technique in France.The other half was awarded to Arthur Ashkin,a retired physicist who worked at the famous Bell Labs in the United States.Strickland's win is historic in more than one way.It's been over 55 years since a woman was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics last time.And she is only the third woman to receive the prize in the Nobel's over 117­year existence.In 1903,Marie Curie became the first­ever woman to win a Nobel Prize in Physics.For the next 60 years,no women phy sicists were awarded.Maria Goeppert­Mayer became the second woman physicist to win the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1963.Strickland herself was surprised to learn she was the third woman to receive the honor in physics.“Is that all,really?I thought there might have been more,” she said at a press conference Tuesday.“We need to celebrate women physicists,because we're out there.Hopefully,in time,it will start to move forward at a faster rate.”32.What was Donna's first reaction when told she won the Nobel Prize?A.She felt all efforts paid off.B.She was skeptical of the news.C.She was too excited to say a word.D.She was annoyed at being awaken up.33.How much was Donna rewarded for winning the Nobel Prize?A.About $350,000.B.About $700,000.C.About $1.4 million.D.About $2.8 million.34.What is the Paragraph 4 mainly about?A.Strickland's achievements in physics.B.The history of the Nobel Prize in Physics.C.The struggle of women physicists to win the Nobel Prize in Physics.D.Three women scientists who won the Nobel Prize in Physics in history.35.What does the underlined “it” in the last paragraph refer to?A.The Nobel Prize in Physics.B.The achievement of women physicists.C.The celebration of the Nobel Prize winners.D.Awarding women physicists the Nobel Prize in Physics.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。

甘肃高一高中英语期中考试带答案解析

甘肃高一高中英语期中考试班级:___________ 姓名:___________ 分数:___________一、阅读理解E AND EAT HEREWang Peng sat in his empty restaurant feeling very frustrated. It had been a very strange morning. Usually he got up early and prepared his menu of barbecued mutton kebabs, roast pork, stir-flied vegetables and fried rice. Then by lunchtime they would all be sold. By now his restaurant ought to be full of people. But not today! Why was that? What could have happened? He thought of his mutton, beef and bacon cooked in the hottest, finest oil. His cola was sugary and cold, and his ice cream was made of milk, cream and delicious fruit. "Nothing could be better," he thought. Suddenly he saw his friend Li Chang hurrying by. "Hello, Lao Li," he called. "Your usual?" But Li Chang seemed not to hear. What was the matter? Something terrible must have happened if Li Chang was not coming to eat in his restaurant as he always did.Wang Peng followed Li Chang into a new small restaurant. He saw a sign in the window.Tired of all that fat? Want to lose weight?Come inside Yong Hui’s slimming restaurant.Only slimming foods served here.Make yourself thin again!Curiosity drove Wang Peng inside. It was full of people. The hostess, a very thin lady, came forward. "Welcome," she said. "My name is Yong Hui. I'll help you lose weight and be fit in two weeks if you eat here every day." Then she gave a menu to Wang Peng. There were few choices of food and drink on it: just rice, raw vegetables served in vinegar, fruit and water. Wang Peng was amazed at this and especially at the prices. It cost more than a good meal in his restaurant! He could not believe his eyes. He threw down the menu and hurried outside. On his way home he thought about his own menu. Did it make people fat? Perhaps he should go to the library and find out. He could not have Yong Hui getting away with telling people lies! He had better do some research!At the library Wang Peng was surprised to find that his restaurant served far too much fat and Yong Hui’s far too little. Even though her customers might get thin after eating Yong Hui’s food, they were not eating enough energy-giving food to keep them fit. They would become tired very quickly. Wang Peng felt more hopeful as he drove back home. Perhaps with a discount and a new sign he could win his customers back. So he wrote:Want to feel fit and energetic?Come and eat here! Discounts today!Our food gives you energy all day!The competition between the two restaurants was on!【1】Something terrible must have happened to Wang Peng’ restaurant because ________.A.he didn’t got up early and prepared his menu.B.he served too much fat and oil in his foodC.the food in Yong Hui’s restaurant is more deliciousD.Lao Li didn’t go into his restaurant【2】The strength of the diet in Wang Peng’s restaurant was that it provided _______.A.barbecued mutton and roast porkB.stir-fried vegetables and fried riceC.sugary cold cola and ice creamD.more energy-giving food【3】The underlined sentence may have the same meaning as ________.A.Wang Peng could not allow Yong Hui to tell lies to people without being discovered.B.Wang Peng could allow Yong Hui to tell lies to people.C.Wang Peng could not allow Yong Hui to tell lies to people and got away.D.Wang Peng could not have Yong Hui telling lies, then getting away with people.【4】From paragraph 4 we can know that Wang Peng ______.A.was hard working because went to study in the libraryB.tried to get himself to be more learned(博学的)C.wanted to study the differences between the food that served in his restaurant and Yong Hui’sD.just searched for a better menu【5】Why did Wang Peng feel more hopeful as he drove back home after he came out of the library? A.Because he felt with a discount and a new sign he could win his customers back.B.Because he found Young Hui’s food was not better than his.C.Because he could cook something delicious attract more customers.D.Because he found a better menu in the library.2.The Million Pound Bank NoteAct I, Scene 4(Outside a restaurant Henry looks at the envelope without opening it and decides to go in. He sits down at atable next to the front window.)OWNER: (seeing Henry's poor appearance) That one's reserved. This way, please. (to the waiter) Take this gentleman's order, Horace.HENRY: (after sitting down and putting the letter on the table) I'd like some ham and eggs and a nice big steak. Make it extra thick. I'd also like a cup of coffee and a pineapple dessert.WAITER: Right, sir. I'm afraid it'll cost a large amount of money.HENRY: I understand. And I'll have a large glass of beer.WAITER: OK. (The waiter leaves and soon returns with all the food.)HOSTESS: My goodness! Why, look at him. He eats like a wolf.OWNER: We'll see if he's clever as a wolf, eh?HENRY: (having just finished every bit of food) Ah, waiter. (waiter returns) Same thing again, please. Oh, and another beer.WAITER: Again? Everything?HENRY: Yes, that's right. (sees the look on the waiter's face) Anything wrong?WAITER: No, not at all. (to the owner) He's asked for more of the same.OWNER: Well, it is well-known that Americans like to eat a lot. Well, we'll have to take a chance. Go ahead and let him have it.WAITER: (reading the bill after the meal) All right. That's two orders of ham and eggs, two extra thick steaks, two large glasses of beer, two cups of coffee and two desserts.HENRY: (looking at the clock on the wall) Would you mind waiting just a few minutes?WAITER: (in a rude manner) What's there to wait for?OWNER: All right, Horace. I'll take care of this.HENRY: (to owner) That was a wonderful meal. It's amazing how much pleasure you get out of tile simple things in life, especially if you can't have them for a while.OWNER: Yes, very interesting. Now perhaps, sir, if you pay your bill I can help the other customers.HENRY: (looking at the clock on the wall again) Well, I see it's two o'clock. (he opens the envelope and holds a million pound bank note in his hands. Henry is surprised but the owner and waiter are shocked) I'm very sorry. But ... I ... I don't have anything smaller.OWNER: (still shocked and nervous) Well .. er ... just one moment. Maggie, look! (the hostess screams, the other customers look at her and she puts a hand to her mouth) Do you think it's genuine?HOSTESS: Oh, dear, I don't know. I simply don't know.OWNER: Well, I did hear that the Bank of England had issued two notes in this amount ... Anyway, I don't think it can be a fake. People would pay too much attention to a bank note of this amount. No thief would want that to happen.HOSTESS: But he's in rags!OWNER: Perhaps he's a very strange, rich man. (as if he has discovered something for the first time) Why, yes! That must be it!HOSTESS: (hits her husband's arm) And you put him in the back of the restaurant! Go and see him at once. OWNER: (to Henry) I'm so sorry, sir, so sorry, but I cannot change this bank note.HENRY: But it's all I have on me.OWNER: Oh, please, don't worry, sir. Doesn't matter at all.

2021-2022学年度高一中期英语试题

2021—2022学年度高一中期英语试题第Ⅰ卷本试卷分第Ⅰ卷(选择题)和第Ⅱ卷(非选择题)两部分,共120分,考试时间100分钟。

第一部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题:每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项。

AHere are four must-see places for you to visit in England.Windsor CastleNot only is it the world’s largest continuously inhabited (有人居住的) castle, it’s also the oldest. And it is also one of the Queen’s main residences—she spends most of her private weekends here, so some parts can be closed, depending on the time of year.Admission: Adults $27 , Children under 17 $15.75Buckingham PalaceBuckingham Palace, the official London residence of the Queen and Prince Philip, opens to the public when the royals are on summer vacation. You won’t be able to look around the whole palace.A Royal Day Out ticket giv es access to the Queen’s Gallery, the Royal Mews and the Changing of the Guard, plus a walk in the Garden. An audio (音频的) guide is included in the price. Admission: Adults $52, Children under 17 $29Westminster AbbeyYou can walk the same floor as Kate did on the day of her wedding to Prince William here. And you can know things about 16 more weddings, 17 tombs of the kings and queens of England and the coronations of almost every king and queen for over 1,000 years.Admission: Adults $28, Children 16 and under $11.50. Tickets are cheaper online.Kensington PalaceIt’s now the official London home of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge. It was where Diana, Princess of Wales lived until she died. The White Garden here was created in memory of her. You can visi t the King’s State Apartments, the Queen’s State Apartments and gardens.Admission: Adults $20, Children under 16 Free. Tickets are cheaper online.1. What will you do in Buckingham Palace?A. See the Queen walking in it.B. Walk around the whole palace.C. Have an audio guide.D. Visit the White Garden.2. How much should a couple with a child aged 9 pay to visit Kensington Palace?A. $20.B. $36.C. $40.D. $56.3. What do we know about the four places?A. Their online tickets are cheaper.B. They are related to the British royals.C. They are open to the public in summer.D. They don’t charge little children for admission.BMaking friends is a skill like many other skills. It improves with practice. If you want to meet people and make friends,you must be willing to take some actions. You must first go where there are people. You won’t make friends staying home alone.Join a club or a group. Talking with those who like the same things as you do is much easier. Or join someone in some activities.Many people are nervous when talking to new people. After all meeting strangers means facing the unknown. And it’s human nature to feel a bit uncomfortable about the unknown. Most of our fears about dealing with new people come from doubts about ourselves. We imagine other people are judging us or finding us too tall or too short,too this or too that. But don’t forget that they must be feeling the same way. Try to accept yourself as you are and try to put the other per son at ease. You’ll both feel more comfortable.Try to act self­confidently even if you don’t feel that way. When you enter a room full of strangers,such as a new classroom,walk tall and straight,look directly at other people and smile. If you see someon e you’d like to speak to,say something. Don’t wait for the other person to start a conversation.Just meeting someone new does not mean that you will make friends with that person—friendship is based on mutual liking and “give and take”. It takes time and effort to develop.4.The best title of the text may be________.A.Friendship B.How to Make FriendsC.Meeting New People D.Facing the Unknown5.You can’t make friends if you________.A.take some actions B.go to where there are peopleC.avoid meeting people D.won’t start a conversation6.Friendship is based on________.A.self-confidence B.meeting more unknown peopleC.more talking and smiling to people D.taking from and giving to people7.Which of the following statements is NOT true?A.Making friends needs practising.B.Making friends needs to be more active in starting a conversation.C.When meeting someone,make him feel nice and starting a conversation.D.Before making friends with someone,judge if he’s too this or too that.CHow far would you go to make a good impression in a new job? A college student in Alabama walked 32 kilometers in the dark to get where he would work on time.Walter Carr’s car broke down the night before he started his new job i n Bellhops, a furniture moving company. Unable to find a ride, Carr figured out how long it would take to walk from his house to the customer’s house in Pelham. And then he left at midnight so that he could reach there by 8 a.m. the next morning.Pelham police saw him walking along a highway at 4 a.m., so they stopped to see if he needed help. After hearing his story, they took him to a restaurant for breakfast and then to a church where he could safely wait until 8 a.m.The police then took Carr to the home of the customer Jenny Lamey. Lamey suggested that Carr rest for a while because he had just walked for a long time, but Carr insisted on starting working at once.While working, Carr told Lamey that he and his mother moved from New Orleans, Louisiana to Birmingham, Alabama after losing their home in Hurricane Katrina, a devastating hurricane that hit the US in 2005. He worked part-time to cover living costs and pay college fees. Greatly touched by Carr, Lamey started a GoFundMe page to help Carr raise money to get his car fixed. Walter Carr’s story touched many others around the US. Within a few days, people gave over $ 73,000 to his GoFundMe page. Besides, Carr received more job offers and won a scholarship. Grateful for others’ help, Carr has decided to give a part of the donations to the Birmingham Education Foundation, and he is determined to give back more.8. Why did Carr have to walk to Pelham to work?A. He couldn’t afford a ride after a hurricane destroyed his car.B. The police took away his car after he was caught speeding.C. He had no choice after he had a car crash in the dark.D. He failed to find a ride after his car broke down.9. What did Carr do first after he was brought to his destination?A. He started to work immediately.B. He had breakfast and took a rest.C. He told the customer his family background.D. He chatted with the customer about a church nearby.10. What does the underlined word “devastating” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?A. Quite hard to predict.B. Possibly preventable.C. Causing a lot of damage.D. Increasingly widespread.11. Why did Jenny Lamey start a GoFundMe page?A. To help Carr buy a new car.B. To make Larr’s story popular.C To raise money to repair Carr’s car. D. To express her admiration for Carr.DChildren spend more time messaging each other on phones and websites than talking in person, a survey has revealed. Text messages and social networking sites have become the common mode of youngsters aged 8 to 14.A survey of modern childhood found that many youngsters are conscious that they are spending too much time on their computers and enjoy themselves the most when playing outside. But the lure (诱惑) of electronic products proves too strong for a quarter, while a fifth say their parents don’t like them playing outside because they are worried about strangers and injuries.The “I Generation report” suggested that youngsters are increasingly health-conscious and skeptical (持怀疑态度的) of commercialization, including gender-based labelling on toys and pop videos released by singers. More than half of those questioned care about eating healthily and one in 10 lectures their own parents about the food they are eating or buying, 42 percent of those questioned own a smartphone, with 36 percent admitting spending more time communicating with friends via instant messaging, such as texts or networking websites, than talking in person. Only one child in 100 said that being happy, having a loving family and being clever were taken as the most crucial (决定性的) elements in their lives.Cary Cooper, the professor of organizational psychology and health at Lancaster University, said social media were contributing to youngsters becoming more independent. They had a sense of individuality due to exposure to a range of media.The survey follows major state-backed research which found that youngsters are turning their back on drink, drugs and smoking. It found a dramatic drop in the number of secondary school students trying and regularly using drugs, alcohol and tobacco. Some analysts said that thanks to the rise of social media, millions of teenagers are spending their time at home in their rooms rather than out on the streets.12. Why can’t 25 percent of the children get away from electronic products?A. They are not allowed to hang out long.B. They are protected from strangers and injuries.C. They enjoy themselves most when playing outside.D. They can’t resist the temptation of the products13. The survey of modern childhood found that many youngsters ________.A. are fans of the pop videos released by singersB. message each other more rather than chat in personC. are doubtful about possessing the latest smartphonesD. pay no attention to their lifestyle nowadays14. The attitude of Cary Cooper towards social media is ________.A. objectiveB. negativeC. supportiveD. unclear15. The last paragraph is written to show ________.A. the benefits of social mediaB. the drop of taking drugs in youngstersC. the exposure to a range of mediaD. youngsters are becoming more conscious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,选项中有两项为多余选项。

Inspired by exciting dreams for the possibilities of womanhood, she asked her daughter what she wanted to be when she grew up. Little Lisa quickly answered, “A nurse.”There was a time when nursing was thought of as a woman’s job and the answer somehow seemed not to be satisfied.
