I’d like you to organize the event and see it through.”“Well, um, errr…sure. I guess so.” As I stuttered(结结巴巴地说) through my 37 , all I could think was, “What?

Maggie was over sixty but pushed our food trolley around with the 51 of a woman half her age.As we were making our rounds one day,I asked her where she got all the energy and enthusiasm. “Annie,” she said, “with the unemployment rate touching 10 percent, I can’t think of a better way to be 52 for keeping our jobs when so many have 53 theirs. Sure money is 54 . But when isn’t it? People need food.”As I listened to Maggie, the milkman’s words 55 in my ears, “Kids need milk.”36. A. advice B. help C. pity D. medicine37.

Details of some apps to help to improve learning skills.BFrom childhood,Moira loved to write.Throughout school she enjoyed writing,but pursuing it professionally was never a possibility.Her father was a doctor,her mother a nurse."Medicine was a fairly safe choice," Moira says,"and writing was a career where it wasn't a certainty that you'd have high income."She became a doctor but still wanted to write something.However,being a doctor was so demanding that she didn't take up writing until her thirties.She produced a novel-a fictionalized version of her travel in China after university.She got excellent reviews.Moira sent it off to as many agents as she could find,and found one whowanted to represent her.Suddenly,it seemed she was on her way as an author."I had one lengthy phone call with the agent where we went through all possible areas that she thought needed polishing.I worked on those and sent it back to her but didn't hear anything." It wasn't long before Moira found another agent who was interested if she was willing to rewrite it from the first person to the third person.She did the hard work and sent it off again."I got back a really brief letter:‘ Thank you,I'm no longer interested.' It was really disappointing."A decade went by,and Moira found herself eager to write again,this time purely for her own enjoyment.She set herself the challenge of creating a thriller and chose Western Australia as her setting.As she was writing just for herself,something surprising began to happen."The characters took on a life of their own;they started doing things I hadn't thought about.It just flew." One day,an agent called from Australia.Three weeks later,Moira had a publication deal.Her novel,Cicada,was published in March."Even if it hadn't been published I still gained so much from the process," says Moira.21.What do we know about Moira______A. She was a writer.B. She was a doctor.C. She was an agent.D. She was a nurse.22.What does the author imply about her first novel?______A. It was produced after she graduated from university.B. It was published by one of the agents.C. It was modified according to the agents' requirements.D.

An Adventure in ChinaB. How to Be a WriterC. Moira's First NovelD. A Passion for WritingCBritish writer John Donne once said:"No man is an island;every book is a world." As an enthusiastic reader,I can't agree with the latter part of the sentence more.Every summer,I endeavor to find some peaceful places where I can attack some classics without being disturbed.Thomas Hardy wants to live far from the madding crowd.I am no friend to chaos,either.I read George Orwell's 1984 in a New England beachside cottage with no locks on the doors,no telephones or televisions in the rooms.1984 is a good book that needs deep reflection.Attempting Sound and Fury lying on the bed of a poorly-occupied motel,however,was less fruitful:I made it through one and a quarter volumes,but then my eyelids were so heavy that I couldn't keep them open.But this summer I find myself at a loss.I'm not quite interested in J.D.Salinger,say,or Frankenstein.There's always War and Peace which I've covered some distance several times,only to get bogged down in the "War" part,set it aside for a while,and realize that I have to start over from the beginning again,having forgotten everyone's name and social rank.How appealing to simply fall back on a favorite-once more into The Call of the Wild or Alice in the Wonderland,which feels almost like cheating,too exciting and too much fun to properly belong to serious literature.And then there's John Steinbeck's The Grapes of Wrath.This title does not amaze but confuse.We're never short of sour grapes,but we've never heard of angry grapes.Anyway grapes are my favorite fruit of summer.These stone fruits can always make me feel cheerful and peaceful all at once.26.What can we infer from Paragraph 2?______A. The author has a cottage in New England.B. 1984is a book that needs careful thought.C. Both of the reading attempts were not fruitful.D. Sound and Fury was set in a poorly-occupied motel.27.What does the underlined phrase "get bogged down" in paragraph 3 refer to?______A. Get confused.B. Be carried away.C. Be interpreted.D. Make no progress.28.Why does the author say reading his favorite books feels like cheating?______A. He finishes them quickly.B. He should read something serious.C. He barely understands them.D. He gets amazed by their titles.29.What can we know about the author from this passage?______A. Thomas Hardy is his friend.B. He shows talent for literature.C. He is quite forgetful.D. He is a literary-minded man.30.What's the author's purpose in writing the passage?______A. To share his reading experience.B. To encourage readers to read books.C. To introduce good books to readers.D. To condemn the chaotic world we live in.DIt is one of the oldest magic tricks in the book-a magician locks a woman in a box,with her head and feet sticking out from either end,and saws (锯)it in half.But when she finally jumps out of the box,the woman is unharmed.This trick was introduced nearly a century ago.It has been around for some time,but it never goes wrong.Why is it so successful?The answer is simple:the human mind is easily fooled.Our brain processes the world around us based on information that sensory organs,including the eyes,pick up.For instance,when we see a cow or a horse standing behind a tree,we automatically "fill in" the part of the animal's body that is hidden from our sight."So the brain is taking this kind of very sparse (匮乏的)information about the world and it's generating this rich world by filling in information," Stephen Macknik,a scientist at the Barrow Neurological Institute in Arizona,US,told Science magazine.But since our brains are filling in the gaps,sometimes they get it wrong.They tend to be driven by our previous experiences and we expect things to go as they have in the past even if sometimes they do not.This tendency explains magicians' success in fooling people with well-known coin tricks.For example,when you see a magician throw a coin up and down in one hand and then fake a coin thrown to the other hand,you would naturally believe that the coin is in the other hand.Apart from the information gaps,magicians also use the "blind spots" theory when doing their shows.The most well-known experiment demonstrating this theory is called the " invisible gorilla (大猩猩)",in which volunteers watch a video of two basketball teams.They are asked to count how many times the teams wearing white shirts pass the ball.In the meantime,a person dressed as a gorilla walks onto the court.But shockingly,half of the viewers don't notice the gorilla,even when they appear to be looking directly at it.Magicians employ this tactic (招数),what they call "misdirection",in almost every one of their acts.They direct our attention somewhere else using comedy and music,which can make us miss stuff during the performance.31.The magic trick is mentioned in the first paragraph to ______ .A. introduce the steps of the magic trickB. prove magic tricks seldom go wrongC. reveal how magic tricks are designedD. get us to wonder how magicians trick the mind32.We can conclude from the passage that the human mind is easily fooled because our brain ______ .A. may have difficulty remembering what we just sawB. fills in information about the magic worldC. is influenced by our previous experiencesD. processes far more information than our sensory organs pick up33.What does the underlined word "invisible" in paragraph 7 refer to______A. Unnoticed.B. Unimportant.C. Unpleasant.D. Unprepared.34.During the "invisible gorilla" experiment,people watching the video ignore the "gorilla" because ______ .A. they don't look directly at itB. they are not interested in itC. they are too focused on countingD. they consider it to be a distraction35.Why do magicians usually use comedy and music when they play magic tricks______A. To get viewers to stay focused on the show.B. To make the show more fun and exciting.C. To draw viewers' attention away from a secret action.D. To create information gaps between magicians and viewers.三、完形填空(本大题共20小题,共30.0分)I always wondered how people would react if I tried to approach a total stranger for help in a busy place like a street corner or a mall.I have always (36) a stranger who tried to catch my (37) in a busy place.Yesterday I was in a busy shopping mall buying a large piece of luggage because I just had the (38)to do it after many days of planning.After the (39),I picked up my phone from my pocket to call my driver waiting in the parking lot but my phone was (40).Then I requested the shop assistant who had (41) sold me the merchandise (which was not cheap),if she could ring my driver for me.She (42) that it was the shop policy that they cannot use (43)while working in the shop.After I got out of the shop onto the busy street,I (44)a young mother with her two kids to make the same (45).As soon as I said "Excuse me,madam!" she grabbed her kids and ran.I (46) a kidnapper.I stood there wondering how many times I had (47) to strangers like the young (48).I stood there in the (49) street with people rushing by,looking at their faces to see if there was a sign of (50) on their face.I saw a man pretty shabbily dressed compared to me who (51) to notice me.I just stopped him and made my request.He (52) called my driver and waited till my car came to make sure I was picked up,turned around (53) I could thank him adequately and was gone.I was (54) by kindness and hope I will do (55) to strangers who try to catch my attention from now on.36.

He taught me the right view of the world.When I was offered the opportunity to be a manager of an organization as an undergraduate student,I asked him for advice because he was a senior manager of a large company.His advice was simple,"Only when you become the manager can you have a vision for how you can make the organization better;management isn't about power and it's about leadership." I learned what I needed was not only to be responsible for my team but also to have leading ability.When I was feeling down,he explained,"Think that you make the wrong choices in life,sometimes."My dad is 86 now,living on his own and enjoying life while struggling with the challenges that aging brings.He keeps a positive attitude despite long pain and the losses that come in life.Although we live quite far away from each other,we talk daily on the phone,and he shares the joys of my young family.As I tell him how we're heading off cycling or on a trip or out to play tennis,now his typical response is,"Do it while you can." This is very important.We can't be sure of the future.My father's advice is like the ancient dictum (格言)of " carpe diem"- seize the day and enjoy it to the fullest.My dad rarely "lectured me".He trusted me,and helped me when I needed help.His patience and wisdom have been true gifts in my life.As I doubt my ability and my motivation,I recall his most recent gift of wisdom,"Do it while you can".It's enough to "just get me started".Why did the author's dad tell him "All things are relative."?(No more than 10 words)______What qualities should a manager have according to the author?(No more than 5 words)______What is the purpose of the author's father talking with him on the phone every day?(No more than 10 words)______How do you understand the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?(No more than 10 words)______ How do you feel about the ancient dictum of "carpe diem"?(No more than 20 words)______五、书面表达(本大题共1小题,共25.0分)57.你校英语社团要组织一次英语辩论赛,就"是否应该缩短中学生在校时间为8小时"的论题进行辩论,请你作为正方代表,写一份辩论稿,内容要点如下:(1)保证充足睡眠;(2)提高学习效率;(3)增加自主时间.注意:(1)词数不少于100;(2)可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯;(3)辩论稿的开头已给出,不计入总词数.As a senior high student, I strongly recommend that___________答案和解析1.【答案】D【解析】答案:D.let's find some of the action.让我们找出一些行动.how do you find it?你怎么发现它的?it's entirely up to you.完全由你决定.you can't be serious.你何必太认真啦..根据句意,D项正确.故选:D.我听说"钢铁侠三"最近上映了,我们现在就去电影院欣赏它吧.你何必太认真呢.大约晚上10点.我太累了,必须睡觉本题考查交际用语,准确掌握相关交际用语的含义,平时多积累一些交际用语,结合语境,选出正确的答案.2.【答案】C【解析】答案C.keep up with"跟上,赶上";put up with"容忍,忍受";end up with"以…结束";catch up with"赶上,追上".根据句意,睡前闻下鲜花的香吻,"结果"你就会很快进入甜美的梦乡了.这里强调的是结果,所以选择C.句意:在睡前闻一下鲜花的香味,你将可能得到一个甜美的梦.本题是基础题,考查动词短语,要掌握短语的意思并熟悉具体的语境选择出正确选项.3.【答案】A【解析】答案:A 本题考查感叹句作宾语从句.感叹句中what 所修饰的中心词是名词或名词短语,how 所修饰的中心词是形容词或副词.此题中空格处后面部分的中心词是名词problems,所以用what.句意为:这条令人震惊的消息让我意识到我们将面临多么可怕的问题.分析句子结构可知,动词realize后的宾语从句中,结构为"感叹词what+adj.+n.+陈述句的语序,如果用how,句子需要作改动:…how terribe the problems were.4.【答案】B【解析】根据句意可知the movie star arrived之前,粉丝已经等了两个小时,表示过去的过去一直做的事情,用过去完成进行时.故选:B.疯狂的粉丝已经耐心地等了两个小时了,他们还会再等,直到电影明星到来.本题考查过去完成进行时,过去完成进行时表示过去的过去发生的事情,属于相对的时态,在过去的动作之前一直发生的可以用过去完成进行时.5.【答案】C【解析】答案:C,考查现在分词的完成式,根据语境是没完成项目,因此使用否定形式not位于动词之前,not complete动作发生在stay之前,因此使用完成时,答案为not having completed.没有完成这个项目,他们不得不待在那多两个星期.考查现在分词的完成式,应对句子的成分进行分析,再对答案进行确定.6.【答案】D【解析】答案:D.support支持;care在乎;spare腾出,匀出;share分享.根据Let Harry play with your toys as well可知用share分享.故选:D.也让Harry玩你的玩具.--Clare,你要学会分享.本题考查动词词义辨析.平时多识记一些动词的含义,做题时结合句意做题.7.【答案】D【解析】答案:D因为后面的句子是完整的句子,从而判断不是定语从句,定语从句是缺少成分的,首先排除A 和C,B选项表示的意思是在哪里,是表示地点的,所以选D,D选项不是表示‘当…的时候',而表示"既然",相当于since,用以引导原因状语从句.全句意思为:你既然有这么好的工作,干嘛还要找新的工作呢?故选:D.你既然有这么好的工作,干嘛还要找新的工作呢?根据句意:你既然有这么好的工作,干嘛还要找新的工作呢?判断不是定语从句,后面的句子是完整的句子,定语从句是缺少成分的,首先排除A和C,B选项表示的意思是在哪里,是表示地点的,故选D,D选项不是表示‘当…的时候',而表示"既然",相当于since,用以引导原因状语从句.8.【答案】A【解析】答案A.本题考查的是with的独立主格结构,with+sb./sth.+doing 表示sb/sth的主动;with+sb./sth.+done 表示sb/sth的被动;with+sb./sth.+to do表示sb/sth需要被做.根据句意餐桌是"被摆放好了",故选A.句意:起居室既干净又整洁,餐桌已经被摆放好了等待着饭菜被做好.本题考查的是with的独立主格结构,要弄清with后面的宾语和宾补之间的关系才能选择出正确选项.9.【答案】A【解析】答案为A.本题考查定语从句中引导词和强调句型的综合运用.题干中第一空格后面是以the small house为先行词的定语从句,从句中缺少做主语指代物的关系that、which,故排除B;题干中存在强调句型,强调句型的基本结构是"It be+被强调部分+that(被强调的是人可以用who)+其它".本题中被强调的是in the small house was built with stones by his father,去掉it was 和第二个空格中的词,句子是完整的,由此判断第二空用that;故答案是A.是在他父亲用石头建成得到小房子里他度过了童年.选择定语从句中的关系词,首先要理解各关系词的用法;然后找准先行词,将先行词带入到定语从句;最后根据先行词在定语从句中的作用判断关系词.此外,分清强调句型和定语从句.10.【答案】C【解析】详解: state是一个人的情形,往往指心情和身体状况;condition意为条件,也可以指人的身体状况;situation指的是情形,境遇,即一个人所处的环境;position指的是职位之类的意思结合句义只有C合适,学会处理危险的境地(情况)故选:C.必须教会在校生处置危险情况的方法.平时多加积累各种易混词的用法,学会深入理解句子含义,才能选择合适的词.11.【答案】D【解析】答案:D,考查交际语言的使用,Congratulations"祝贺你",Cheers"举杯敬酒的用语",Never mind"没关系,不用担心",Good luck"祝你好运",根据语境是祝愿别人比赛取胜,故答案为D.--麦克,我们队这周末要跟火箭队打比赛,我确信我们将会赢.--祝你好运!考查交际语言的使用,应联系前后句子的语境,对答案进行确定.12.【答案】A【解析】答案:A.way意为"方式,方法",多指一般的思想、行动、办事的方法;approach原指接近某人或某物,也可指对待或处理的方式或方法;means可指采用的方法、计划、政策、策略等,尤指整套的方法;method指具体的、系统的、有步骤的方法,强调条理性及高效率.而仅approach可接to,指"…的方法".会议上他们讨论了三种不同的学习数学的方法.本题考查名词辨析.学生应根据名词词义结合上下文选出合适答案.13.【答案】C【解析】答案:C.本题考查代词及定语从句.句中all作介词after的宾语,又作后面定语从句的先行词,all后面的关系代词that被省略.由句子含义和结构看,只有C项中的all 可填入空缺,表示"你父亲为你所做的一切".故选:C.你的父亲为你做了这么多事,你还这样说他,真令人不舒服.本题考查不定代词的用法.不定代词的应用是高中英语考察的重点,熟记每个代词的用法,注意每个代词之间用法含义上的不同.解题时结合语境具体分析,选择正确答案.14.【答案】A【解析】答案是A.本题考查情态动词shall的用法.情态动词shall常常用来表示法律或条文的规定.根据句意可知,询问指示牌上的内容,属于条文的规定,所以本题答案选择A.--那里的指示牌上写着什么?--在这个区域没有人可以吸烟或携带点燃的香烟、雪茄或烟斗.要在正确理解情态动词的基本含义的基础上,整体理解语境中的情感态度,做出合理的判断.15.【答案】A【解析】答案:A.根据题干中的or可知其引导的是含蓄虚拟条件句,相当于if引导的虚拟条件句.根据句中they were abroad的were可知事情发生在过去,所以or引导的含蓄条件句是对过去情况的假设,所以谓语动词形式应为would/could/might/should have done.故选A.在我们进行调查的那几个月他们正在国外,不然的话他们就来帮忙了.此题考查含蓄虚拟条件句.解题时根据题干中的介词(短语)提示,如with,without,or,otherwise,but for等,再结合上下文的语境找到隐藏的条件,从而确定是对什么时间的虚拟假设.16.【答案】【小题1】B 【小题2】D 【小题3】C 【小题4】D 【小题5】A【解析】1.B.细节理解题.根据第二段This app can help to remind you how many days, hours, and minutes you have until your exam.

高考英语一模试卷题号I II III IV V 总分得分一、阅读理解(本大题共15小题,共30.0分)AAmsterdam Destination GuideAmsterdam is one of the most popular travel destinations in the world,famous for its beautiful canals,top art museums,cycling culture and so on.It is the capital and most populous city in the Netherlands and often referred to as the "Venice of the North" because of its expansive system of bridges and canals.Here are some of the key points to remember as you plan your trip to Amsterdam.Boom Season Population Language(s) Currency JanuaryClimateJulyClimateMay to October 813,562 Dutch Euro Averagehigh:5.8°CAveragehigh:22.0°CMust-See AttractionsMost visitors begin their Amsterdam adventure in the Old Centre,which is full of traditional architecture,shopping centers,and coffee shops.You'll also want to check out Amsterdam's Museum Quarter in the South District,which is great for shopping at the Albert Cuyp Market and having a picnic in the Vondelpark.The top museums to visit there are the Rijksmusuem,the Ann Frank House,and the Van Gogh Museum.If You Have TimeThere are several other unique districts in Amsterdam,and you should try to explore as many of them as time allows.The Canal Ring is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that was originally built to attract wealthy home owners and is a center for celebrity spotting and nightlife today.The Plantage area has most of the city's museums,including the Jewish Historical Museum,the Scheepvaart Museum,and the botanical gardens.Money Saving TipsUnless you really want to see the tulips (郁金香)blooming,avoid booking between mid-March and mid-May.This is when hotel and flight prices rise.Look for accommodations in Amsterdam's South District,where rates are generally cheaper than in the city center.Buy train tickets at the machine instead of the counter to save a bit of money.Instead of hiring a tour guide,hop on a canal boat.They're inexpensive and will give you a unique point of view of the city.Check out our homepage to view price comparisons for flights,hotels,and rental cars before you book.1.What can be learned about Amsterdam from this passage?______A.

A magazine.B. An essay.C. A report.D. A website.BThree months after Hurricane Katrina in 2005,Rebecca Sell,then 24,a photojournalist for Fredericksburg photographed a New Orleans couple worriedly examining water-spotted photo albums.As she took the photo,something within her clicked."I told them I could take the ruined pictures,copy them and give them digitally restored (修复)photos," she recalls.Although a bit sceptical,the couple agreed.Rebecca took their photos home,restored them and took them to the couple at their temporary home."It felt so good to be able to do that for them," says Rebecca.When her editor,Dave Ellis,saw the photo of the couple,he suggested they go back and restore damaged photos for even more people.So in January 2006,with paid time off from the paper,the two set up shop in Pass Christian.After posting a notice in the community newsletter,Rebecca and Dave received 500 photos in four days.For each,the pair took a new digital picture,then used high-tech software to erase water spots and restore colors.It just so happened that a popular website linked to Dave's blog about the experience,and soon Operation Photo Rescue,as it came to be known,had emails from hundreds of volunteers,including photographers and restoration experts,eager to help.Though digital restoration is a painstaking process,mending irreplaceable family pictures means the world to victims like Emily Lancaster,71,who took out piles of ruined photo albums after Katrina,never thinking the mess could be saved.But she just couldn't bear to part with a few treasured pictures,including a portrait of her father,who had passed away,and a photo of her husband as a boy.Then she heard about Operation Photo Rescue."I didn't have a whole lot of hope they could fix them,but they did," Emily says."Almost every day I think about all the pictures I've lost.I'm so happy to have these two."In the five years since Katrina,Operation Photo Rescue has collected thousands of pictures ruined by floods,hurricanes and tornadoes.Volunteers make "copy runs" to disaster areas across the country to gather damaged photos from survivors;operating costs are covered by donations."It's great to be able to give people some of their history back," says Rebecca."One person told me that thanks to us,her grandmother got to see her photos again before she passed away.Moments like that remind me why I do this."4.When Rebecca took the picture of the New Orleans couple,she decided to ______ .A. take them to their temporary homeB. help with their damaged photosC. set up shop in Pass ChristianD. cover Hurricane Katrina5.From Paragraph 2,we know that Dave and Rebecca ______ .A. quit their jobs in 2006B. inspired volunteers to join themC. spent four days mending the photosD. made their work known in their newspaper6.How did Emily Lancaster feel when she first heard about Operation Photo Rescue?______A. Excited.B. Hopeless.C. Satisfied.D. Sceptical.7.What is the best title for the passage______A. Surviving HurricanesB. An Act of GenerosityC. Saving MemoriesD. A Lucky CoupleCLike many other people who speak more than one language,I often have the sense that I'm a slightly different person in each of my languages-more confident in English,more relaxed in French,more emotional in Czech.Is it possible that,along with these differences,my moral compass (指南针)also points in somewhat different directions depending on the language I'm using at the time?Psychologists who study moral judgments have become very interested in this question.The findings of several recent studies suggest that when people are faced with moral dilemmas (困境),they do indeed respond differently when considering them in a foreign language than when using their native tongue.In a 2014 paper led by Albert Costa,volunteers were presented with a moral dilemma known as the "trolley problem":imagine that a runaway trolley is moving quickly toward a group of five people standing on the tracks,unable to move.You are next to a switch that can move the trolley to a different set of tracks,therefore sparing the five people,but resulting in the death of one who is standing on the side tracks.Do you pull the switch?Most people agree that they would.But what if the only way to stop the trolley is by pushing a large stranger off a footbridge into its path People tend to be very hesitant to say they would do this,even though in both situations,one person is sacrificed to save five.But Costa and his colleagues found that presenting the dilemma in a language that volunteers had learned as a foreign tongue dramatically increased their stated willingness to push the sacrificial person off the footbridge,from fewer than 20% of respondents working in their native language to about 50% of those using the foreign one.Why does it matter whether we judge morality in our native language or a foreign one?According to one explanation,such judgments involve two separate and competing ways of thinking-one of these,a quick,natural "feeling," and the other,careful deliberation about the greatest good for the greatest number.When we use a foreign language,we unconsciously sink into the more careful way simply because the effort of operating in ournon-native language signals our cognitive (认知的)system to prepare for difficult activity.An alternative explanation is that differences arise between native and foreign tongues because our childhood languages are filled with greater emotions than are those learned in more academic settings.As a result,moral judgments made in a foreign language are less filled with the emotional reactions that surface when we use a language learned in childhood.There's strong evidence that memory connects a language with the experiences and interactions through which that language was learned.For example,people who are bilingual (双语的)are more likely to recall an experience if reminded in the language in which that event occurred.Our childhood languages,learned in the middle of passionate emotion,become filled with deep feeling.By comparison,languages acquired late in life,especially if theyare learned through limited interactions in the classroom or dully delivered over computer screens and headphones,enter our minds lacking the emotionality that is present for their native speakers.8.What does "this question" in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. What contributes to one's language improvements______B. Is it necessary to learn more than one foreign language?C. Does the language one uses influence one's moral judgmentsD. How do people deal with moral dilemmas in a foreign language?9.When the "trolley problem" was presented in a foreign language,volunteers were morelikely to ______ .A. care less about the five peopleB. pull the switch to the side tracksC. remain hesitant about what to doD. sacrifice the stranger on the footbridge10.The underlined word in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to ______ .A. considerationB. guidanceC. selectionD. arrangement11.What can we learn from the last two paragraphs?______A. Bilingual people are less emotional than others.B. Native language learning involves greater emotions.C. Childhood memories limit foreign language learning.D. Academic settings promote foreign language learning.DWe talk continuously about how to make children more "resilient (有恢复力的)",but whatever we're doing,it's not working.Rates of anxiety disorders and depression are rising rapidly among teenagers.What are we doing wrong?Nassim Taleb invented the word "antifragile" and used it to describe a small but very important class of systems that gain from shocks,challenges,and disorder.The immune (免疫的)system is one of them:it requires exposure to certain kinds of bacteria and potential allergens (过敏原)in childhood in order to develop to its full ability.Children's social and emotional abilities are as antifragile as their immune systems.If we overprotect kids and keep them "safe" from unpleasant social situations and negative emotions,we deprive (剥夺)them of the challenges and opportunities for skill-building they need to grow strong.Such children are likely to suffer more when exposed later to other unpleasant but ordinary life events,such as teasing and social rejection.It's not the kids' fault.In the UK,as in the US,parents became much more fearful in the 1980s and 1990s as cable TV and later the Internet exposed everyone,more and more,to those rare occurrences of crimes and accidents that now occur less and less.Outdoor play and independent mobility went down;screen time and adult-monitored activities went up.Yet free play in which kids work out their own rules of engagement,take small risks,and learn to master small dangers turns out to be vital for the development of adult social and even physical competence.Depriving them of free play prevents their social-emotional growth.Norwegian play researchers Ellen Sandseter and Leif Kennair warned:"We may observe an increased anxiety or mental disorders in society if children are forbidden from participating in age adequate risky play."They wrote those words in 2011.Over the following few years,their prediction came true.Kids born after 1994 are suffering from much higher rates of anxiety disorders and depression than did the previous generation.Besides,there is also a rise in the rate at whichteenage girls are admitted to hospital for deliberately harming themselves.What can we do to change these trends?How can we raise kids strong enough to handle the ordinary and extraordinary challenges of life We can't guarantee that giving primary school children more independence today will bring down the rate of teenage suicide tomorrow.The links between childhood overprotection and teenage mental illness are suggestive but notclear-cut.Yet there are good reasons to suspect that by depriving our naturally antifragile kids of the wide range of experiences they need to become strong,we are systematically preventing their growth.We should let go-and let them grow.12.Why does the author mention the immune system in Paragraph 2?______A. To stress its importance.B. To analyze the cause of anxiety.C. To question the latest discovery.D. To help understand a new word.13.Parents overprotect children because ______ .A. they are concerned about their children's safetyB. they want to keep children from being teasedC. parent-monitored activities are a mustD. children are not independent enough14.According to the author,free play can ______ .A. promote children's resilienceB. strengthen children's friendshipC. reduce children's risky behaviorD. develop children's leadership skills15.Which of the following does the author probably agree with?______A. Stop trying to perfect your child.B. It takes great courage to raise children.C. Prepare the child for the road,not the road for the child.D. While we try to teach our children all about life,our children teach us what life is allabout.二、阅读七选五(本大题共5小题,共10.0分)Today's students are surrounded by information.The ability to figure out exactly why authors write-and not accept every opinion as fact-is a key skill.(1) The following strategies teach them how to figure out why authors really write.Start with why."Why did the author write this piece?" is the key question asked to identify author's purpose.To help students expand their understanding of "why," post various types of nonfiction (an advertisement,opinion article,news article,etc.)around your classroom and have students quickly identify a purpose for each.(2)Talk about structure.Authors use different structures for different purposes.For example,one author may use time order to explain an event,while another author uses compare and contrast to put that event into context.(3) Often when authors write,they're trying to get readers to feel a certain way.Perhaps the author of an article about whale conservation wants readers to feel sad about the difficult situation of whales.Or the author of a letter may want to make the recipient feel better about a situation.After students read a text,stop and ask:How do you feel?And how did the author get you to feel this wayConnect it to students' own writing.It doesn't have to be said that writing and reading go hand in hand.(4) When students are asked to write about a topic that they think everyone should know about,to explain a procedure or to share a personal memory,they'll become moreconscious of how authors approach writing.Observe how purpose changes within a text.Author's purpose is often studied through the text as a whole,but authors have different reasons for writing within texts as well.(5) Then,they may launch into a list of facts that make the reader feel discouraged about the situation.And finally,they may conclude with an appeal.Take a short article and break it apart,identifying the different purposes so that students see how author's purpose changes as they read.A.Get to the heart.B.Identify the topic.C.The readers may get more advanced in their work with informational text.D.For example,an author may include a funny anecdote (轶事)to draw the reader in.E.In particular,they'll need to figure out author's purpose and draw their own conclusions.F.Expand students' awareness of why people write by having them write for different purposes.G.Or keep a running Author's Purpose board with a list of the various reasons that authors write.16.

Now, I'd like to give you more details.A variety of activities have been organized, such as visiting Capital Museum, taking a fiel d trip to Qufu, Shandong, home of Confucius, planting trees in Mangshan Park and lear ning to bake a cake in a pastry shop, just to name a few.The activities mentioned above are quite popular with students. My favorite kind of activity is field trips. I went to Qufu in Senior One and Hangzhou in Senior Two. Both trips deepl y impressed me. The reasons why I like field trips are as follows. First, field trips offer me a good chance to broaden my horizons. As the Chinese saying goes: "It is better to tra vel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books." Not only can I learn from locals an d my own experiences, but also I can see with my own eyes our beautiful country and splen did culture. Second, field trips improve my research skills. Before we take field trips,we are always asked to prepare by searching online or in the library for useful information.Third, field trips help strengthen friendships. Since many of the field trips last several days, it is a good opportunity to bond with classmates better outside the classroom.I really hope that you can go on a field trip with us in the future.YoursLi Hua【解析】略43.【答案】第二节(20分)One possible version:Last week I participated in a school activity about making a poster entitled "40 years of China's reform and opening-up in my eyes".On Friday evening, I was wondering what topic to choose for my poster. Many ideas pop ped into my head like "transportation", "environment", but I finally decided on "great cha nges in my home". Immediately I turned to my parents for help. Hearing that, they took out some photo albums and began their talk. Mom told me about what our home looked like twenty years ago while dad showed me some photos taken at that time. It was the first time I had seen an old-fashioned electric fan and tape recorder. Seeing my curious expression,my parents suggested a visit the next day to the exhibition commemorating the 40th anniversa ry of China's reform and opening-up.At the exhibition, we were amazed by the brilliant achievements made in the past four deca des. In the daily life area, what attracted me most was the evolution of electric appliances , especially TV sets, from the clumsy small ones to the modern high-tech ones. Dad poi nted at one TV, saying his family had a similar one when he was a kid. Considering these TVs could be used on my poster, I took some photos. With all the material collected, I g ot down to my poster, on which I wrote about the great changes in my home and also includ ed some pictures.My home is just one example. I am sure lots of Chinese families resemble mine, benefitin g from China's reform and opening-up. How proud I feel about the great changes!【解析】略。
