We can see differences when we pay attention to the way words are us ed. Let’s look at the words about animals and plants. Most expressions in Chinese about the dog, for example, “a homeless dog”, “a mad dog”, “a running dog” and “a dog catching a mouse”, have negative meanings. But in western countries, dogs are thought to be honest and good friends of humans. In English, people use the dog to describe positive actions. For example, “you are a lucky dog” means you are a lucky person. And “every dog has its day” means each person has good luck sometimes. To describe a person’s serious illness, they say “sick as a dog”. The word “dog-tired” means very tired. However, Chinese love cats very much. But in western culture, “cat” is often used to describe a woman who is cruel. There are many other examples of how “cat” is used diff erently as well.The rose is regarded as a symbol of love in both China and some western countries. People think the rose stands for love, peace, courage and friendship. And the rose is the national flower of England, America and many other countries.The words about plants and animals are used in positive or negative ways in different cultures. We can learn about many differences in cultures by comparing how some words are used.21. “Every dog has its day” means “__________”.A. Everybody in the world is lucky.B. Each person lives his own way of life.C. If one works hard, he’s sure to succeed.D. Everybody has a time in life to be lucky.22. Western people usually use “cat” to refer to “__________”.C. a homeless personD. an unkind woman23. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Words show differences in culture.B. Chinese people prefer dogs to cats.C. Western people think cats to be good friends.D. Rose is the national flower of all western countries.24. What’s the best title for the passage?A. Negative and Positive WordsB. Different Countries Have Different CultureC. Rose Means the Same in Chinese and EnglishD. What Dog and Cat Mean in English and ChineseBPeople believe that climbing can do good to health. Where can you learn the skill of climbing then? If you think that you have to go to the mountains to learn how to climb, you’re wrong. Many Americans are learning to climb in city gyms (体育馆). Here, people are learning on special climbing wall. The climbing wall goes straight up and has small holding places for hands and feet.How do people climb the wall? To climb, you need special shoes and harness (保护带) around your chest to hold you. There are ropes (绳索) tied to your harness. The ropes hold you in place so that you don’t fall. A beginner’s wall is usually about 15 feet high, and you climb straight up. There are small pieces of metal that stick out for you to stand on and hold on to. Sometimes it’s easy to see the new piece of metal. Sometimes, it’s not. The most difficult part is to control your fear. It’s normal for humans to be afraid of falling, so it’s difficult not to feel fear. But when you move away from the wall, and the ropes hold you, and you begin to feel safe. You move slowly until you reach the top.Climbing attracts people because it’s good exercise for almost everyone. You use your whole body, especially your arms and legs. This sport gives your body a complete workout. When you climb, both your mind and your body can become stronger.25. The most difficult thing to do in wall climbing is _______.A. to tie ropes to your shoesB. to control your fearC. to move away from the wallD. to climb straight up26. The word “workout” underlined in the last paragraph most probably means _________.A. settlementB. exerciseC. excitementD. tirednessA. To tell people where to find gyms.B. To prove the basic need for climbingC. To encourage people to climb mountains.D. to introduce the sport of wall climbing第II卷（非选择题）三、语法填空Zhangjiajie is already home to the world's longest and tallest glass bridge, but now architects have gone much 25 (far).Two world-famous architects, who won a design 26 (compete), have designed a transparent footbridge.

上海高一上学期期末综合巩固复习卷（二）一、完形填空Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D．Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.The sights, sounds, and smells of the modern marketplace are rarely accidental. More likely, they are tools of an evolving strategy of psychological marketing called “sensory marketing” to create an emotional association to a(n) 1 product or brand.By relating to people in a far more 2 way through everyone’s own senses, sensory marketing is able to affect people in a way that traditional mass marketing cannot.Traditional marketing believes that consumers will systematically consider 3 product factors like price, features, and utility. Sensory marketing, by contrast, seeks to resort to the consumer's life experiences and feelings. Sensory marketing believes that people, as consumers, will act according to their emotional urge more than to their 4 reasoning. In this way, an effective sensory marketing effort can result in consumers choosing to buy a lovely but expensive product, rather than a plain but cheap 5 .In the past, communications with customers were mainly monologues — companies just ‘talked at’ consumers. Then they evolved into dialogues, with customers providing 6 . Now they’re becoming multidimensional conversations, with products finding their own voices and consumers responding 7 to them.Based on the implied messages received through five senses, consumers, without noticing it, tend to apply human-like personalities to brands, leading to intimate relationship and, hopefully for the brands, persistent 8 . And that’s the very thing brands are dying to foster in customers rather than instant trend or profits. Most brands are considered to have either "sincere" or "exciting" personalities."Sincere" brands like IBM and Boeing tend to be regarded as conservative and reliable while "exciting" brands like Apple, and Ferrari are as imaginative and 9 . In general, consumers tend to form 10 relationships with sincere brands than with exciting ones. This explains the relatively enduring history of the “Sincere Brands”Certainly, with the eyes containing two-thirds of all the 11 cells in a person's body, sight is considered the most important of all human senses. Sensory marketing uses sight to create a memorable "sight experience" of the product for consumers which extends to packaging, store interiors, and printed advertising to form a(n) 12 image for the brand.In other words, no aspect of a product design is left to 13 anymore, especially color. Brand acceptance is linked closely with the appropriateness of the colors on the brand—does the color 14 the product at all? If not, customers, though not realizing it themselves, will 15 the brands in all possible ways sales, reputation, etc. Therefore, brands, isn’t it time now to study the new field of marketing?1．A．specific B．qualified C．average D．adequate 2．A．economic B．personal C．artificial D．mechanic 3．A．obvious B．potential C．accessible D．concrete 4．A．imaginable B．objective C．psychological D．gradual 5．A．alternative B．reward C．sample D．exhibit 6．A．compliment B．fund C．prospect D．feedback 7．A．temporarily B．subconsciously C．occasionally D．attentively 8．A．loyalty B．philosophy C．endurance D．regulation 9．A．mild B．daring C．steady D．classic 10．A．far-fetched B．hard-won C．long-lasting D．easy-going 11．A．individual B．sensory C．present D．general 12．A．overall B．ambitious C．dramatic D．additional 13．A．chance B．maintenance C．progress D．leadership 14．A．accept B．overlook C．fit D．treat 15．A．shape B．punish C．signify D．exploit二、用单词的适当形式完成短文Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct.

His adoption papers, 16．(sign) when he was three months old, listed a brother named Vincent but no last name. Though Kieron spent years thinking about Vincent, he could never track him down.That changed in December 2017, when Kieron’s adoptive parents gave him an DNA test as a Christmas gift. When his results came back, he was surprised 17．(find) he had a lot of DNA matches for relatives who had also taken the test. Most were distant connections, but one match was so strong that it 18．(label) “close family.” His name was Vincent Ghant. Kieron looked for him on Facebook and soon made a possible connection.When they connected, it was 19．they had known each other their whole lives. As they talked, the brothers realized they lived about 20 minutes from each other. 20．(surprisingly), they attended the same university and majored and minored in the same subjects.Vincent was nine when Kieron was born and remembers caring for his baby brother. But times were tough, and Shawn, who worked 15-plus hours a day as a nurse, decided that 21．(place) Kieron for adoption would give him the best chance to succeed.“She was very emotional about that time, to the point 22．it was hard for her to put into words anything about what happened,” Vincent says.Now the brothers had the chance to make up for lost time. They decided to meet at a local tea shop that week. One of Vincent’s concerns was that Kieron 23．hate his birth family for placing him for adoption. He was relieved Kieron didn’t, and 24．he’d grown up in a loving family. After that first meeting, the brothers played football together and celebrated Christmas with their families. “We’ll keep growing our relationship 25．it’s time to leave this planet,”says Vincent. That shouldn’t be hard. As Kieron says, “We’ve got years and years to catch up on.”Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct.

Like your friends or colleagues are going to discover you’re a fraud, and you don’t actually deserve your accomplishments?If so, you’re in good company. These feelings are known as imposter syndrome, or what psychologists often call imposter phenomenon. An 26．(estimate) 70 percent of people -- even brilliant ones -- experience these imposter feelings at some point in their lives, according to an article published in the International Journal of Behavioral Science.Imposter Syndrome -- the idea that you’ve only succeeded owing to luck or good timing rather than your talent or qualifications -- 27．(identify) in 1978 by psychologists Pauline Rose Clance and Suzanne Imes. In their paper, they theorized that women were uniquely affected by the syndrome. Since then, research 28．(show) that both men and women experience imposter feelings. Today, imposter syndrome can apply to 29．who isn’t able to internalize and own their successes.Some experts believe 30．(experience ) impostor syndrome has to do with personality traits -- like anxiety or neuroticism. Others focus on family or behavioral causes. For instance, childhood memories, such as feeling that your grades were never good enough for your parents or that you siblings always did better than you in certain areas, can leave a lasting impact.External factors, such as environment and institutionalized discrimination, can also play a major role in 31．(arouse) imposter feelings. A sense of belonging builds up confidence. Conversely, the fewer people who look or sound like you, the 32．(confident) you feel. This is especially true when you belong to a group for whom there are stereotypes about competence, including women in STEM fields or international students at American universities.There are a number of actions that can significantly help you overcome imposter syndrome: You 33．share your feelings with trusted friends or mentors; you can write down lists of your achievements, skills and successes 34．(demonstrate)_ to yourself that you have concrete value to share with the world; or you can request ongoing feedback that helps to prove the effort you put into your work. But in the end, 35．you are still unable to get rid of these negative feelings, it is important that you seek out a professional psychologist.Most people experience moments of doubt, and that’s normal. The important part is not to let that doubt control your actions. You can still have an impostor moment, but not an impostor life.三、选用适当的单词或短语补全短文Directions: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once.

After a 30-year follow-up study of 8, 000 males, American psychologists found out that the main cause of disparities in intelligence is not intelligence itself, but non-intelligence factors. The so-called “non-intelligence factors” include one’s feelings, will, 36．, interests and habits.Though people all know that one should have 37．objectives, a strong will and good learning habits, quite a number of teachers and parents don’t pay much attention to 38．these factors.Some parents are greatly worried when their children fail to do well in their studies. Theyblame either 39．factors, malnutrition, or laziness, but they never take into consideration these non-intelligence factors. At the same time, some teachers don’t inquire into these as reasons why students do poorly. They simply give them more courses and exercises, or even 40．or laugh at them. After all, these students lose self-confidence. Some of them just feel defeated and give themselves up as hopeless. Others may go astray because they are sick of learning. An investigation of more than 1，000 middle school students in Shanghai showed that 46. 5 percent of them were afraid of learning because of examination and 36. 4 percent 41．persistence, initiative and conscientiousness.It is clear that the lack of cultivation of non-intelligence factors has been a main obstacle to intelligence development in teenagers. It even causes a(n) 42．between physiological and psychological development among a few students.If we don't start now to 43．the cultivation of non-intelligence factors, it will not only obstruct the development of the intelligence of teenagers, but also affect the 44．of a whole generation. Some experts have put forward suggestions about how to cultivate students’non-intelligence factors.First, parents and teachers should 45．understand teenage psychology. On this basic, they can help them to pursue the objectives of learning, exciting their interests and toughening their willpower.Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box.

Somemay even be able to hum a few lines or talk about their favorite artists, but for the vast majority of people, traditional Chinese opera remains a classic art form that is far 47．from everyday life.However, only a century ago, Peking Opera was no less 48．to the regular populace than is today’s pop music. The performers were admired by a large number of fans who were willing to spend a fortune on a ticket to their performances. Throughout the history of Peking Opera, there have 49．many renowned masters of the form. But MeiLanfang (1894 - 1961) was arguable the most outstanding figure of this craft, who was famous for his portrayal of the female lead roles (dan)50．as one of the “four famed dan,” Mei was so much more than even this. He brought forth a number of new ideas to several aspects of Peking Opera: make-up (he was the first to war lipstick), music (his productions first 51．the erhu in shows), choreography(编舞艺术)(his iconic sword dance in Farewell My Concubine《霸王别姬》) and, most importantly characterization.At a time when actual women were banned from performing, Mei 52．the dan to starring roles. He combined elements of the qingyi (elegant lady), huadan (young woman) and daomadan (female warrior) into a new huashan character that excelled in singing, dancing and martial arts. The techniques he introduced led to the development of the “Mei School”, which was considered one of the three major dramatic performing art systems in the world at the time.“My father broke the 53．between almost all the different types of female role,” Mei Baojiu, the youngest child of Mei Lanfang who followed his father into dan acting, was quoted as saying.Thanks to Mei’s 54．innovations, even those who know little about traditional Chinese opera can easily see the beauty of the art form the moment performers take the stage. “His make-up, the overlay of carmines(胭脂红) and darker tones, is the most beautiful I have ever seen in a theater,” wrote U.S. playwright Stark Young after watching Mei Lanfang’s performance in New York in 1930.But the true beauty of Peking Opera is not solely about visual aesthetics. “For veteran artists, even their performances without make-up can be just as 55．as full-on stageperformances,” Mei wrote in his 1958 memoir, Forty Years of Life on the stage. Just as Peking Opera has become an icon of Chinese culture, Mei has come to be acknowledge on the grand stage of the world as its quintessential performer.四、阅读选择You can’t make a call or send a text on your mobile phone in the US town of Green Bank, West Virginia. Wireless Internet is outlawed, as is Bluetooth. As you approach the tiny town on a two-lane road that snakes through the mountains, your mobile phone signal drops out, and your radio stops working. The rusted pay phone on the north side of town is the only way for a visitor to reach the rest of the world. It’s a pre-modern place by design, lacking of the latest technologies that define life today.The reason for the town’s empty airwaves is apparent the moment you arrive. It’s the Robert C．Byrd telescope, also known as the GBT, a shiny white, 147-metre-tall satellite dish. It’s the largest of its kind in the world and one of nine in Green Bank, all of them government owned and operated by the National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO).You don’t look through these kinds of telescopes. They’re radio telescopes, so instead of looking for distant stars, they listen for them. There’s a long line of astronomers all over the world who want to use the telescope which is so sensitive that it could hear a single snowflake hitting the ground 1,000 miles away.Such a sensitive listening tool needs total technological silence to operate, so in 1958 the US government created a National Radio Quiet Zone, a 33,000 km2 area covering Green Bank where, to this day, electronic and radio signals are forbidden every hour of every day.People who live within a 15km of the Green Bank telescope are allowed to use landline telephones, wired Internet and cable televisions, but microwave ovens, wireless Internet and radios are forbidden. You can have a mobile phone, but you won’t get a signal.Because of how much its way of life varies from the rest of America, Green Bank seems to be a somewhat isolated (隔绝), even alien place. For locals, the technology ban is annoying.For others who come to Green Bank for a little rest and relaxation, the town has become a refuge.56．What do we know about the town of Green Bank from Paragraph 1?A．It’s located at the base of a large mountain.B．It is geographically and technologically isolated.C．Its telecommunications are affected by its geography.D．Many people live in the town and its surrounding areas.57．How does the GBT work?A．It traps light waves in its huge dish.B．It stops all electronic and radio signals.C．It receives pictures from space satellites.D．It listens for and receives noises from space.58．What equipment are locals of the Green Bank allowed to use?A．Cable TV, wired Internet and radio.B．Landline phones, wired Internet and cable TV.C．Public phones, wireless Internet and mobile phones.D．Landline phones, microwave ovens and cable internet.59．What does the underlined word “refuge” in the last paragraph most probably mean? A．A place of escape.B．A source of confusion.C．An area of interest.D．A sign of danger.There are two basic modes of judgment: criticism and praise. The former consists of identifying a subject’s flaws; the latter of noting its worthwhile qualities.Often, the greater intellectual challenge — as a reader, as a viewer, and as a manager — is to recognize when something is truly great.“Managers in particular seem to have a hard time with this” said Adam Grant, the author of Originals: How Nonconformists Move the World, in a lecture at the Aspen Ideas Festival. Grant points to the work of his former student Justin M. Berg, who is now a professor of organizational behavior at Stanford University. While at college, Berg studied circus performers who were trying to make their circus world-famous. Berg asked the performers to submit videos of their works and then asked the artists themselves, circus managers, and regular audience members to evaluate them. He wanted to know, between the performers and the managers, who could predict which acts would most resonate (共鸣) with the audience members.What Berg found is that the artists themselves were terrible judges of their own works. “On average,” Grant explained, “when they looked at 10 videos, they ranked their own videos two spots too high.” The reason, he said, is that “they’ve fallen in love with their own work.” The circus managers, however, are too negative about these works,” Grant said, “and they commit a ton of false negatives, rejecting really promising ideas.”So why is this? Why do managers tend to find flaws, not reasons for praise? To answer that, Grant turns to the example of Seinfeld, an American sitcom (情景喜剧), which was rejected by director after director at NBC．Grant said, “You know, I realize that this show makes no sense and it’s really about nothing, and you can’t identify with any one of the characters. But it made me laugh and that’s what a sitcom is supposed to do.” The managers, by contrast, were too focused on whether Seinfeld looked like what had succeeded in the past to recognize its novel brilliancy. Years of experience had trained them to believe that a certain type of show would be successful, and prejudiced them against something that broke that mold.But Grant says it wasn’t just experience that prevented those managers from appreciating Seinfeld. It was also that they had bad motivation. As he explained, “If you are a manager and commit a false positive, you are going to embarrass yourself, and potentially ruin your career.” Managers, he says, are terrified of committing false positives, meaning saying something will be a hit.False negatives, by contrast, present little costs. “If you reject a great idea,” Grant said,“most of the time, no one will ever know.’’ Managers like to make safe bets and don’t mind the invisible losses.Berg’s work was again inspiring. Berg found that there was one group whose nature did line up well with what was actually be popular with audiences: other circus artists. “They were the best forecasters by far,” said Grant. “Unlike the artists themselves, the peers could take a step back” and see a work’s flaws. But, unlike managers, the peers “were also really invested in the creative process” which enabled them to recognize when something was novel and worth the risk.One conclusion from this would be to free managers from certain decision-making processes. But since that’s not typically possible, perhaps instead managers can be taught to think like peers, and Berg found that that can be done relatively easily. “All he did,” Grant explained, “was that he asked managers to spend five minutes brainstorming about their own ideas before they judged other people’s ideas.” “That”, Grant said, “was enough to open their minds. Because when they came in to select ideas, they were looking for reasons to say no. Get them into a brainstorming mindset first, and now they’re not thinking evaluatively but creatively.”60．What does the underlined word “flaws” in the first paragraph mean?A．Features.B．Dangers.C．Values.D．Faults.61．What can we learn about the works the circus performers submitted?A．The circus performers committed false negatives towards them.B．They couldn’t resonate with the audience members.C．Both the circus performers and managers made prejudiced judgments about them. D．The circus performers held the same opinion as the circus managers did about them. 62．By mentioning the sitcom Seinfeld, Grant intends to tell us ________.A．why it has been popular among AmericansB．how an unknown play succeeded in the endC．why managers tend to criticize rather than praise D．how false positives make managers overlook its brilliance 63．Compared to false positives, false negatives ________. A．can’t make more invisible lossesB．are more acceptable among managersC．can potentially ruin managers’ careersD．can make managers feel more embarrassed 64．According to Berg, managers are advised ________. A．to think both evaluatively and creatively in judging an idea B．to spend five minutes brainstorming before judging an idea C．not to participate in certain decision-making processes D．to reject any ideas that are not worthwhile65．Which would be the best title for the passage?A．The art of recognizing good ideasB．The key factors in decision-makingC．The influence of false negativesD．The two basic modes of judgment五、概要写作66．Summary WritingWhen you hear the final whistleOne of the hardest things for any sportsperson to do is to know when to retire. But even harder is finding the answer to the question “What am I going to do with the rest of my life?”Some sportspeople go on playing too long. Perhaps they just can’t stand life without the “high” of playing professional sport. Michael Jordan, the greatest basketball player of all time retired three times. He retired once from the Chicago Bulls, made a successful comeback with the Bulls, then retired again. His second comeback with an inferior team ended in failure and he retired forever at the age of 38. Jordan said, “There will never be anything I do that will fulfill me as much as competing did.”Others can’t resist the chance of one last “pay day”. Muhammad Ali needed the money, but his comeback fight, at the age of 39, against Trevor Berbick, was one of the saddest spectacles in modern sport. After losing to Berbick, Ali retired permanently. Three years later he developed Parkinson’s disease.For some people, the pain of retirement never leaves them. As Jimmy Greaves, anex-England international footballer said, “I think that a lot of players would prefer to be shot once their career is over.” Many of them spend their retirement in a continual battle against depression, alcohol, or drugs.But for the lucky few, retirement can mean a successful new career. Franz Beckenbauer is a classical example of a footballer who won everything with his club, Bayern Muaich. After retiring he became a successful coach with Bayern and finally president of the club. John McEnroe, the infamous “bad boy” of tennis, is now a highly respected and highly paid TV commentator. But sadly, for most sportspeople these cases are the exceptions.六、汉译英翻译句子67．北京以它的悠久历史而闻名。

Do you decide? Does the supermarket decide?When you enter the supermarket, you see shelves full of food. You walk in theaisles between the shelves. You push a shopping cart and put your food in it.You probably hear soft, slow music as you walk along the aisles. This may be an attempt to please you, so you will enjoy shopping. Some supermarkets want to increase their profits by playing soft and slow music, because the slow music makes you walk slowly and you have more time to buy things.Fresh fruit and vegetables are usually put near the entrance. When you arrive at the supermarket, you concentrate on the kinds of fruit and vegetables you need first. Once you've got that out of the way, you can relax and do the rest of the shopping without any hurry. Besides, if you see fresh goods first, it gives you a "feel good" impression of freshness, so you can not help spending your money.Maybe you go to the meat department then. There is some meat on sale, and you want to find it. The manager of the supermarket knows where customers enter the meat department. The cheaper meat is at the other end of the meat department, away from where the customers enter. You have to walk past all the expensive meat before you find the cheaper meat. Maybe you will buy some of the expensive meat instead of the meat on sale.Most of the food in supermarkets is very attractive. It all says "Buy me quickly!" to the customers. The fresh fruit and vegetables say "Buy me quickly!" as you walk by. The expensive meat says "Buy me quickly!" The supermarket tells you what to buy.36. Some supermarkets play soft, slow music because it ________.A. can help customers get the things they wantB. makes customers walk slowly and buy moreC. can make customers relaxed and happyD. can tell customers exactly where to go37.

If you see fresh goods first in the supermarket, ________.A. you know where to get thingsB. it brings you good luckC. it makes you spend less moneyD. you’ll get a fresh impression40. Supermarket managers make the food attractive so that ________.A. the customers will buy moreB. it looks very expensiveC. the customers come oftenD. it seems cheap and fineBOne of the interesting things about Cuba is its educational system. As in many other countries, schools are free. What is unusual is that schools combine study with manual work. Each school has a plot of land where the children work for each day. They plant vegetables, which they weed and water, and later they harvest the crops. In this way they develop good working habits and learn how important it is to produce. Usually, children do not like vegetables such as spinach（菠菜）, green beans, or cabbage. But by growing vegetables themselves, Cuban children soon develop a taste for them. During the summer, older children also go to the country to help the farmers with the crops.In this system, the children spend part of their school time studying and the rest working in the open air helping increase the nation’s production.41.

高一七选五专题英语期末复习冲刺卷(附答案)
高一七选五专题英语期末复习冲刺卷(附答案)Have you ever wondered why people from different parts of the world eat different types of food or why certain foods and cooking traditions are so important to one’s culture? ____1____ On an individual level, we grow up eating the food of our culture, and we learn to be closely connected with it. Sometimes foods help us remember things in the past - memories that have special meanings to us. ____2____ When I was sick as a child, my mother used to cook soup for me. The smell and taste of the soup became something very familiar to me. Now, whenever I feel tired or stressed, I remember the soup my mum used to make for me.____3____ Traditional cooking is passed down from one generation to the next by maintaining precious family recipes. Immigrants (移民) cook traditional food as a way of preserving their culture in their new homes and as a means of coping with homesickness.Each country or community’s unique cooking reflects its history, lifestyle, values and beliefs.____4____ This is reflected in Chinese cooking, where almost every flavour is used in a balanced way to create delicious dishes. Also, Chinese people believe that food not only needs to be nutritious but also needs to look attractive and colorful.As the world becomes more globalized, it is easier to access cooking from different cultures. We should accept our culture’s food, but we should also become more informed about other cultures by trying dishes from around the world. ____5____A．In China, harmony (和谐) is important.B．Food is a gate into culture, and it should be treated as such.C．On a large scale, food is an expression of cultural identity.D．I encountered a few fun, food-related cultural differences abroad.E．There is more of a connection between food and culture than you may think.F．The old age wisdom can be seen in architecture and customs as well as in their food. G．Family dishes often become the comfort food we seek as adults at lower points of our lives.More Than Just FoodThere are a few ways in which Chinese restaurants are different from Western restaurants. Consider how Westerners go about eating at restaurants. Everyone always gets their own menu and orders their own food. ____6____ , it is quite difficult to talk to — or even see — more than a few people during the meal.____7____ . Usually, everyone sits at large and round tables where it is easy to see and talk with each other, even if it is a rather large group. One person orders the food for everyone , after considering the likes and dislikes of the other people in the group. ____8____ . Everyone then serves themselves by taking a small bit of food and putting it on their own plates.Just as in the West, people can choose what they want to eat. However, while in the West, importance is placed on the ind ividual and having one’s own preferences, in China importance is placed on sharing and community. Instead of seeing themselves as individuals first, and part of the group second, Chinese people generally see themselves as part of the group first and individuals second. ____9____ .Finally, since people are seated at a round table, everyone is treated equally. ____10____ . However, respect is still shown to older people or people of higher status, as they always sit atthe far end of the room facing the door.A．China has many different styles of foodB．And, since the tables are usually smallC．No one is given greater importance over anotherD．You should make an effort to enjoy Chinese foodE．Everyone still gets what they want, but it is a shared experienceF．Then, when the food comes, all of it is put in the middle of the tableG．However, the traditional Chinese restaurant experience is quite differentWhy play sports? You might say “to get exercise” and you would be right. To have fun? That's true, too. But there's more. ___11___ According to the Women's Sports Foundation, girls who play sports get a lot more than just fit.Girls who play sports do better in school. You might think that athletics will take up all your study time. ___12___ Exercise improves learning, memory, and concentration, which can give active girls an advantage in the classroom.Girls who play sports learn teamwork and goal-setting skills. ___13___ When working with coaches, trainers , and teammates to win games and achieve goals, you're learning how to be successful. Those skills will serve you well at work and in family life.Sports are good for a girl's health. In addition to being fit and keeping a healthy weight, girls who play sports are also less likely to smoke. And later in life, girls who exercise are less likely to get breast cancer or osteoporosis(骨质疏松症).Playing sports improves self-confidence. ___14___ Why? It builds confidence when you know you can practice, improve, and achieve your goals. Sports are also a feel-good activity because they help girls get in shape, keep a healthy weight, and make new friends.___15___ Playing sports can reduce stress and help you feel a little happier. How? The brain chemicals leased during exercise improve a person's mood. Friends are another mood-lifter. And being in a team creates tight bonds between friends. It's good to know your teammates will support you-both on and off the field!A．Exercise cuts the pressure.B．Sports teach valuable life skills.C．Regular exercise increases quality of life.D．In fact, there are at least five more reasons.E．Girls who play sports feel better about themselves.F．Playing sports offers children more than just physical benefits.G．But research shows that girls who play sports do better in school than those who don't.Why do more and more people show interest in cultural heritage (遗产) these days?____16____ Maybe it’s because technology has made it easier to learn about our ancestors. Here’s a list of several ways to connect you with your cultural heritage.If you aren’t sure where your ancestors are from, a DNA test can be a good way. Companies like Family Tree DNA will sell you a testing box that teaches you what to do. ____17____ There have been concerns about the safety—your DNA information sold to companies without asking you. If a DNA test isn’t your cup of tea, you can try several other ways.One of the most enjoyable ways to learn about your family tree is sitting down with an older relative to chat about it. Talk in person with a grandparent, great-grandparent, or any other family member who’s been around long enough to tell you about the past. ____18________19____ So one way to bridge the gap between your family’s past and present is to cook a traditional meal. If your ancestors are from Italy, you can learn how to host an Italian dinner party. Invite some relatives to share your common heritage over a meal.Learning a language is a unique way to connect with your ancestors and culture. ____20____ Once you’ve known the language of your ancestors, yo u may want to get in touch with your heritage by picking up the basics of that language.A．Food is part of your cultural heritage.B．This is a great way to learn about your ancestors.C．You generally get your test results within a few weeks.D．It can also let you meet new people and have more experiences.E．Food can help you feel like you’re truly experiencing that culture.F．People are eager to learn as much about our ancestors as possible.G．Perhaps they want to have a sense of belonging in our globalized world.Have you ever wondered why people from different parts of the world eat different types of food or why certain foods and cooking traditions are so important to one’s culture? ____21____ On an individual level, we grow up eating the food of our culture, and we learn to be closely connected with it. Sometimes foods help us remember things in the past - memories that have special meanings to us. ____22____ When I was sick as a child, my mother used to cook soup for me. The smell and taste of the soup became something very familiar to me. Now, whenever I feel tired or stressed, I remember the soup my mum used to make for me.____23____ Traditional cooking is passed down from one generation to the next by maintaining precious family recipes. Immigrants (移民) cook traditional food as a way of preserving their culture in their new homes and as a means of coping with homesickness.Each country or community’s unique cooking reflects its history, lifestyle, values and beliefs.____24____ This is reflected in Chinese cooking, where almost every flavour is used in a balanced way to create delicious dishes. Also, Chinese people believe that food not only needs to be nutritious but also needs to look attractive and colorful.As the world becomes more globalized, it is easier to access cooking from different cultures. We should accept our culture’s food, but we should also become more informed about other cultures by trying dishes from around the world. ____25____A．In China, harmony (和谐) is important.B．Food is a gate into culture, and it should be treated as such.C．On a large scale, food is an expression of cultural identity.D．I encountered a few fun, food-related cultural differences abroad.E．There is more of a connection between food and culture than you may think.F．The old age wisdom can be seen in architecture and customs as well as in their food. G．Family dishes often become the comfort food we seek as adults at lower points of our lives.The following are three simple language-learning exercises you can add to your dailyplan.____26____Learning a language doesn’t happen overnight. So even short, simple exercises are an important step to help you explore a language more deeply.Choose a word of the day. The idea of a word of the day as a language-learning exercise is a little out of date. It brings to mind the kind of person who would use a word in a sentence many times a day.____27____Collect and explore synonyms (近义词).When you’re learning a new language, it’s important to pay attention to those words having a similar meaning but used in different ways.____28____A good dictionary will give you some tips about the synonyms, but the best way to learn how to use similar words is to listen to other speakers and take note.____29____This exercise can work in either direction. If you see or hear something in the language you’re learning, make sure to try to bring it into the language you’reusing.____30____Actually write out these translations so as to check them against another translation.A．Translate what you see and hear around you.B．Find the reasons behind patterns you observe.C．There’s another benefit that makes it important.D．You can adapt them in any way that works best for you.E．But focusing on just one word a day can really be very useful.F．And surely any text you see in your native language can be translated.G．For example, “big” and “vast” are synonyms, but you wouldn’t talk about a “vast dog.”Friendships can bring joy or sorrow. ____31____, we talked to researchers, authors, and therapists(治疗师) to learn how to manage the common relationship we all face.Broken promises(违背承诺)Friends are important for our physical and health but these relationships aren’t always smooth sailing. ____32____. And a major way this happens is through broken promises. Perhaps he canceled plans at the last minute or she refused to take part in an important party. ____33____, the first thing to do is remember that no one is perfect, says Jan Yager, PhD, friendship coach.____34____ “Sometimes jealousy(妒忌) shows our deepes t desires,” says Dr. Yager. “Healthy envy(嫉妒) can motivate you to become better and be inspired by your friend’s success,” she says. She points out that it could be the other way around as well: Your friends might be jealous of you. Feeling left outThere’s no worse feeling than when you check Facebook Monday morning to find out that your friends went on a weekend getaway without you. Scott Christnelly, a therapist, says, “I encourage clients to express their feelings about it but also not to jump to conclu sions.” Then find someone else to talk to-maybe a family member, or a close friend (not one who went on the trip)-toexplain how you feel. ____35____.A．Experiencing envyB．Friend breakups can be just as painful as a romantic brokeC．Since there’s no rule book on what to do when things get tense or go southD．But while it may be painfulE．In fact, it’s common to experience some serious hurt from your friendsF．Stopping to feel jealous of themG．Maybe through that conversation, you can brainstorm how you will respondThe Importance of Getting Kids to Be ActiveEveryone knows that kids should be physically active and need to exercise regularly to be physically fit. ____36____, regular physical activity is considered by most experts to be an important part of a healthy lifestyle. However, that doesn’t mean every child needs to spend four or five hours a day exercising.How Much Exercise Do Kids Need?It is recommended that kids should be physically active for at least 60 minutes per day.____37____.
