Grammar and VocabularySection ADirections:After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word;for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank.（A）After spending between six and eight hours in class, students are expected to spend between two and four hours at home doing homework. These extra hours of work leave students (25) _______ (feel) tired and stressed and it leaves students with little free time for other activities, such as sports.Earlier, China’s Ministry of Education said it wanted to ban homework in primary schools and asked parents for their comments. Most parents were (26) _______ the idea. They understood that homework put pressure on their children, (27) _______ they felt that the extra work was necessary if their children hoped to enter a good middle school.The debate between homework or no homework (28) _______ (go) on in American schools for years and no one has come up with (29) _______ solution. What most agree on, though, is that homework should be relevant, and it should help the student strengthen (30) ______ he or she has learnt in class. It should not be given routinely just to keep the student busy in the evening.In China, because of the entrance tests for high school and university, doing endless exercises at home is considered necessary because students have to prepare (31) _______ for the tests by practicing a lot. Unless a system is changed, it’s doubtful whether Chinese students (32) _______ (relieve) of their homework burden any time soon.（B）What causes today’s continuing high unemployment remains a central economic question of our time. According to some economists, the computer revolution eliminates more jobs than it creates.Technology has solved many social problems and has had profound effects on jobs, but changes have occurred over many years. To take one example, a new automated machine tool (33) _______ (call)Milwaukee-Matic has improved the way of production, but it has replaced 18 workers at the same time. Robert Heilbroner, a well-known economist (34) _______ wrote a widely read book on economic history warned: “As machines continue to invade society, it is human labor itself (35)_______ gradually becomes needless.”Economists Frank Levy of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Richard Murnane of Harvard believe that computers have eliminated many jobs and will continue to do so. ATMs have reduced the need for tellers (出纳员). Computerized airport ticket boxes have limited the number of ticket agents.But they also claim that new computer jobs are far more than losses. There are 3.5 million workers directly (36) __________ (involve) in creating computer infrastructure(基础设), such as software developers, systems analysts and data experts.As a result, job creation in the future will focus on three kinds of work: solving unstructured problems (e.g. performing delicate surgery), working with new information (e.g. analyzing marketing data), and carrying out manual tasks (e.g. moving furniture).The key question is whether schools (37) _______ adapt to the computer revolution. For the foreseeable future, the challenge of ‘cybernation (电脑化)’ is not mass unemployment, but the need (38) _______ (educate) many more young people for the jobs computers cannot do.Although schools are far better than in earlier decades, the skills required for the first two types of jobs, the well-paying jobs, have become (39) _______ (difficult). Future living standards depend heavily on (40) _______ schools can produce those higher skills in larger quantities.Section BDirections: Complete the following passage by using the words in the box. Each word can only be used once. Note that there is one word more than you need.We believe that there is more to education than preparation for a job. Children must be prepared for all (41) ________ of their adult life work, leisure, personal relationships, creative activities, dealing with money matters, independence, and parenthood.However, it would be (42) ________ to provide an education which gave no consideration to the needs of employers.What type of training does the business world regard as important?Many young people applying for jobs were, in the employers’opinions, very weak in the basic skills of handwriting, grammar and spelling.

What is certain is that employers do not believe the standard is now high enough. Do technological changes make greater (46) ________ upon the students’ abilities?We should also remember that the job (47) ________ of young people have increased. The girls who would have once become shop assistants or hairdressers now want to be secretaries. Boys who sought an apprenticeship (学徒) 20 years ago now desire to an engineering degree. But it is still the same girls and boys with the same degree of ability.

They should work fora while at some other kind of job to see how the world of business and commerce is different from their own.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)While income worry is a rather common problem of the aged, loneliness is another problem that aged parents may face. Of all the reasons that explain their loneliness, a large geographical distance between parents and their children is the major one. This phenomenon is commonly known as "Empty Nest Syndrome".In order to seek better chances outside their countries, many young people have gone abroad, leaving their parents behind with no clear idea of when they will return home. Their parents spend countless lonely days and nights, taking care of themselves, in the hope that someday their children will come back to stay with them. The fact that most of these young people have gone to Europeanized or Americanized societies makes it unlikely that they will hold as tightly to the value of duty as they would have if they had not left their countries. Whatever the case, it has been noted that the values they hold do not necessarily match what they actually do. This geographical and cultural distance also prevents the grown-up children from providing response in time for their aged parents living by themselves.The situation in which grown-up children live far away from their aged parents has been described as "distant parent phenomenon", which is common both in developed countries and in developing countries. Our society has not yet been well prepared for "Empty Nest Syndrome". 66. According to the passage, the loneliness of aged parents is mainlycaused by ______.A. their earlier experience of feeling lonelyB. the unfavorable living conditions in their native countriesC. the common worry about their incomeD. the geographical distance between parents and children67. Many young people have gone abroad, leaving their aged parentsto _______.A. live in the countries with more moneyB. seek a better place for their aged parentsC. continue their studies abroadD. realize their dreams in foreign countries 68. If young people go abroad, ______.A. they do not hold to the value of duty at allB. they can give some help to their parents back homeC. they cannot do what they should for their parentsD. they believe what they actually do is right69. From the last paragraph, we can infer that ______.A. the situations in the developed and developing countries are differentB. "Empty Nest Syndrome" has arrived unexpectedly in our societyC. children will become independent as soon as they go abroadD. the aged parents are not fully prepared for "Empty Nest Syndrome"( B )(You may read the questions first.)70. According to the passage, teachers would be working with students _______________.A. immediately after they apply for the positionB. in the National City Center across ChinaC. 21---25 hours a week even on national holidaysD. ranging from kindergarten students to teenagers71. How much can Smith get on July 15 if he promises to teach for a year on January 15?A. 9500 RMBB. 28500 RMBC. 34200 RMBD. 57000RMB72. Who will be possibly admitted as an English teacher according to the passage?A. Bo Savino from America, 35, a 10-year Chinese immigrant.B. Douglas Carter from Canada, 30, a former doctor.C. Abigale from Australian, 42, an experienced teacher.D. Alexa Joy Nino from India, 39, an experienced teacher.73. We can conclude that teachers admitted by this school group are allowed to ____________.A. get a cash reward for good performanceB. live in the north of Hong KongC. see a doctor for freeD. visit a variety of local schools(C)Received cooperative wisdom maintains that we should all accept the stimulating power of “co-working” and “hive offices’, where we are elbow-to-elbow with our colleagues. Privacy, it is claimed, stifles （扼杀）creativity.A study from the University of Sydney begs to differ. Researchers surveyed more than 40,000 office workers in 303 companies worldwide and found that the plus sides of an open-plan office --- ideas sharing and friendship, are far overtaken by the downsides --- disruption and noise pollution.When the first open-plan office, the Larkin Administration Building in New York, opened in 1906, all conversation was banned and those in positions of power had separate spaces. Now that corner offices are seen as expensive, your desk neighbor is just as likely to be your boss as an intern. This means permanently being on your best behavior and feeling the pressure to make small talk every time your eyes meet over the mousepad.In a survey of American workers by , “noisy colleagues”were cited as the No.1 workplace disruption, above phone calls and social media. A 2010 study from the University of California found that it takes the average worker 25 minutes to get back into the flow of a task after an interruption. This suggests that, if you’re interrupted 16 times during an eight-hour day, you may as well have stayed in bed.Professor Cary Cooper, an expert on occupational stress form Lancaster University, suggests the help of symbolism. “Make it common knowledge that, if you fly a red flag above your desk, it means you are working on something detailed and need peace and quiet,” he says. “A white flag means that you are available.”On internet forums（论坛）, dissatisfied desk colleagues exchange tips on how to make your workspace as uninviting as possible. These include: never having a sweet jar or new toys on your desk and, if you have a “guest”chair, piling it with papers so that interrupters have nowhere to sit. You can even set up fake calendar alerts to go off at intervals in case you need to make an escape.The last aid is unpopularity; be rude, cold and unhelpful until colleagues are terrified to come near you. It may not even come to that. Who would really want to approach a flag-waving crazy guy in a ridiculous hat?74. The researchers from the University of Sydney will agree that____________.A. privacy will prevent creativityB. an open-plan office has stimulating powerC. an open-plan office makes people less productiveD. an open-plan office is beneficial in terms of idea sharing75. Which of the following descriptions about a modern open-plan office is NOT TRUE?A. You are more likely to make small talks with colleagues.B. You are supposed to behave yourself most of the time.C. You will probably sit along aside your boss.D. You will have more peace and quiet.76. All the following are suggestions to reduce interruption in an office EXCEPT __________.A. making workplace uninvitingB. making more private phone callsC. turning to symbolism for helpD. making oneself unpopular among colleagues77. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. A Report Issued by the University of SydneyB. Noisy Colleagues Cited as No. 1 Office DisruptionC. Open-Plan Office Stimulating ProductivityD. How to Survive in An Open-Plan OfficeSection DDirections:Read the following passage and then complete the statements and answer the questions on the answer sheet.Since humans first domesticated cats and dogs, these furry friends have taken on increasingly important roles in people’s lives.As wild animals, dogs and cats first entered human life in the role of hunting animals and guardians, then as companions and finally as family members. Now, a legal battle is under way that could make these animals legal citizens.The first potential evidence of dog domestication dates back to 30,000 B.C. Before they were pets, dogs helped humans hunt, and cats helped guard grain supplier by keeping rats and mice away. But the Middle Ages were a grim period for cats and dogs. Considered agents of Satan, millions of black cats were killed throughout Europe in 1233. People regarded animals as soulless machines and did experiments on living dogs. It wasn’t until the late 1800s and early 1900s that dogs and cats’ condition improved. People brought cats and dogs indoors where they treated them as family members.“As human relationships are becoming more virtual, it’s creating an emotional emptiness in our lives,” said Dav id Grimm, a science journalist. “Cats and dogs keep us anchored to the real world.”Today, there are animal anti-cruelty laws in all 50 U.S. states, with penalties that include fines and prison time. Dogs and cats can even inherit money, but they’re still considered property.Now, a growing effort seeks to grant personhood to animals, including cats and dogs. Driving this movement is an increasing awareness of animal intelligence and their emotional capabilities. In recent years, researchers have found that dogs can understand pointing---an ability that chimpanzees lack---and are capable of empathy and even abstract thinking.Cats are much harder to study, because as any cat owner knows, it’s tough to get a cat to do what it’s told. However, cats are known t o be intelligent creatures, too.Yet not everyone supports the push to treat animals as fellow citizens. Scientists worry that recognizing pets as legal persons could make it impossible to use animals in research. Farmers are also concerned that if dogs an d cats were considered ‘people’, cows and chickens could be next----a move that put an end to the livestock industry.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN 10 WORDS)78. When cats and dogs first entered human life, what did they serve as?________________________________________________________________________.79. For a period of time in history, black cats were killed in largenumbers due to the popular belief among people that_________________________________________.80. Dogs believed to be intelligent and have emotional capabilitiesbecause of _______________________ and their capability of empathy and abstract thinking as well.81. According to the article, who are against treating pets as legal citizens?_________________________________________________________________ ___________.第II卷 (共47分)I.

The instructor asked us to list 36 in our past that we felt 37 of, regretted, or incomplete about and read our lists aloud.This seemed like a very 38 process, but there’s alway s some 39 soul in the crowd who will volunteer. The instructor then 40 that we find ways to 41 people, or take some action to right any wrong doings. I was seriously wondering how this could ever 42 my communication.Then t he man next to m e raised his hand and volunteered this story: “Making my 43 , I remembered an incident from high school. I grew up in a small town. There was a Sheriff 44 of us kids liked. One night, my two buddies and I decided to play a 45 on him.After drinking a few beers, we climbed the tall wa ter tank in the middle of the town, and wrote on the tank in bright red paint: Sheriff Brown is a s.o.b.(畜生). The next day, almost the whole town saw our glorious 46 . Within two hours, Sheriff Brown had us in his office. My friends told the truth but I lied. No one 47 found out.”“Nearly 20 years later, Sheriff Brown’s name 48 on my list. I didn’t even know if he was still 49 . Last weekend, I dialed the information in my hometown and found there was a Roger Brown still listed. I tried his number. After a few 50 , I heard, “Hello?” I said, “Sheriff Brown?” Paused. “Yes.” “Well, this is Jimmy Calkins.”“And I want you to know that I did it!” Paused. “I knew it!” he yelled back. We had a good laugh and a 51 discussion. His closing words were: “Jimmy, I always felt bad for you 52 your buddies got it off their chest, but you were carrying it 53 all these years. I want to thank you for calling me...for your sake.”Jimmy inspired me to 54 all 101 items on my list within two years, and I always remember what I learned from the course: It’s never too late to 55 the past wrongdoings.36.

Mike insisted they were not rivals(竞争对手). “No. It's two teenagers going out there, living their dream and having the adventure of a lifetime,” he said.Mike may be young, but he is no stranger to sailing adventures. He picked up the hobby at the age of 6 when his father took him out in a small boat on a local lake. Father and son sailed separate boats across the Atlantic when Mike was 14, making him the youngest person to cross that ocean solo. That record gave him the taste for this even greater challenge.On the recent journey, the scariest moment for Mike came when his sailboat was hit by storms in the southern Indian Ocean.“We were picked up by what felt like a 60-foot wave and threw down on our side at 90 degrees,” he said.“It felt like I was going right over. Stuff was flying around and I just thought ‘Oh no’.”At other times, he had to dive into the Pacific and fix problems. He tied himself to the boat, jumped into the water and went to work with a knife in 30-second dives underneath the boat to cut a rope away.Mike said he felt pr oud that he made his dream come true. “You've got to have confidence in yourself that you will make it,” he said.56. What's the main idea of the passage?A. A British teenager became the youngest person to sail solo around the world.B. How a British teenager developed his sailing hobby.C. A British teenager's brave experience.D. A British teenager's confidence.57. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Mike Perham crossed the Panama Canal.B. Mike and Zac took the crown as the youngest solo around-the-world sailor at the same age.C. The two youngsters crossed the globe in different directions.D. Mike was never frightened during the sailing.58. What does the underlined word “taste” in the fifth paragraph mean?A. Flavor.B. Preference.C. Experience.D. Ability.59. What can we infer from the passage?A. Both Mike and Zac had adventured spirits.B. Mike is older than Zac.C. They both are brave but they have different goals.D. Mike took up the hobby of sailing adventures at 14.60. What did Mike believe in?A. Having confidence in yourself will make you successful.B. Braveness is important in sailing.C. One should pick up a hobby as a child.D. Pride goes before a fall.BA scientist turns out to be able to see the future by offering each of four-year-olds a piece of candy and watching how he or she deals with it. Some children reach eagerly for the treat they see. Some last a few minutes before they give in. But others are determined to wait until the last moment.By the time the children reach high school, something remarkable has happened. A survey found that those who as four-year-olds had enough self-control to hold out generally grew up to be more popular, adventurous, confident and dependable. The children who gave in to temptation(诱惑) early were more likely to be lonely, easily frustrated and inflexible（固守己见的）.Actually, the ability to delay reward is a sign of emotional intelligence which doesn’t show up on an IQ test.The hardware of the brain and t he software of the mind have long been scientists’ concerns. But brain theory can’t explain what we wonder about most, like the question why some people remain upbeat in the face of troubles that would sink a less resistant soul.Here comes the theory of Daniel Goleman, writer of Emotional Intelligence: when it comes to pr edicting people’s success, brain ability as measured by IQ may actually matter less than the qualities of mind once thought of as “character”.EQ is not the opposite of IQ. What researchers have been trying to understand is how they work together; how one’s ability to handle stress, for instance, affects the ability to concentrate and put intelligence to use. Among the ingredients(要素) for success, researchers now generally agree that IQ counts for about 20%; the rest depends on everything from social class to luck.While many researchers in this relatively new field are glad to see emotional issues finally taken seriously, some few fear EQ invites misuse.61. The experiment with the four-year-olds makes it clear that .A. the age of 4 is a proper time for scientific experimentB. emotional intelligence won’t show up until adolescenceC. the ability of self-control plays a role in personal successD. candy can be used to me asure a person’s emotional intelligence62. Which of the following is TRUE of EQ and IQ according to the text?A. There is no link between EQ and IQ.B. The higher a person’s IQ is, the higher his or her EQ is.C. Some people can be blessed with lots of both, but some with little of either.D. Scientists are trying to discover the way in which EQ and IQ work together.63. The underlined word “upbeat” in Paragraph 4 probably means .A. kindB. floatingC. excitedD. optimistic64. Why does the author mention the experiment at the beginning of the text?A. To amuse both the children and readers.B. To prove the scientist’s wisdom.C. To introduce the to pic of the text.D. To show us how to do an IQ test.65. What is most likely to be written in the paragraph that follows?A. Information about famous people with high EQ.B. Examples showing the opposite voice about EQ.C. Some reasons why EQ is a relatively new field.D. Strong demand for basic emotional education.CMovies in the theater get their recognition at awards ceremonies, such as the Oscars. But how about movies for phones? They are getting their turn at MoFilm--the first mobile film festival.The first MoFilm competition received 250 entries from more than 100 countries. Entries were restricted to films that were five minutes or less in length--ideal for viewing and sharing on mobile phones. An independent jury then selected a shortlist of five film-makers. The winner was chosen from the shortlist by an audience voting using their phones.New PlatformsThe awards highlight the increasing impact that mobile phones are making in the entertainment industry. Many grassroots filmmakers start out with short films. They are thwarted by the lack of opportunities to screen their work. Therefore, mobile phones are increasingly being seen as a new platform for these short works.It is a good place for anyone who wants to express themselves and find a way to have that expression be seen by a wide audience. Just think about how many people have mobile phones in the world!New Technology AdvancesMoFilm is pioneering content for mobile and online services that is a world away from Hollywood. The majority of films made for mobiles are now short in length, taking into account the screen size. However this could be overcome as technology advances.In the near future, longer films will likely be seen on the mobile phone. And there are mobile companies creating phones where users can watch movies at higher quality.Wherever you see movies, one thing is certain: the quality of work, the simple ability at story telling, and the thin g that inspires someone to tell a story can really come from anywhere.66. At the first MoFilm, .A. movies in the theater got their recognitionB. more than 100 countries took part in the competitionC. ideal films were five minutes or less in lengthD. the winner was chosen by experts' voting67. They are thwarted by the lack of opportunities to screen their work. The underlined wordmeans “”.A. disappointedB. surprisedC. frightenedD. encouraged68. Nowadays the majority of films made for mobiles are short in length because of .A. online servicesB. the mobile phoneC. technology advancesD. the screen size69. What’s the best title for the passage?A. Putting Movies on MobilesB. Introduction of Latest Mobile PhonesC. Mobile Phone s’ CeremoniesD. Film Awards Broadcast on Mobile Phones70. Which statement is NOT true?A. MoFilm is not a part of Hollywood.B. Mobile phones are considered to be a new platform for short films.C. MoFilm get their recognition through Oscars.D. Films made for mobiles will likely be cleaner.DMachines in the home have a short history. Sewing machines, washing machines and tumble dries are common enough today, but a hundred years ago few people could even imagine such things. However, inventors have designed and built a wide range of household machines since then. In most cases the inventor tried t o patent（申请专利）his machine, to stop anyone copying it. Then he tried to produce a lot of them. If the machine became popular, the inventor could make a lot of money.In 1790 the first sewing machine was patented. The inventor was an Englishman called Thomas Saint. There was nothing to match his machine for forty years, and then someone built a similar device. He was a Frenchman, Bartelemy Thimonier. Neither of these early machines worked very well, however. It wasn’t until 1846 that an inventor came up with a really efficient sewing machine. He was an American, Elias Howe and his machine was good enough to beat five skilled sewing women. He didn’t make much money from it, however. The first commercially successful sewing machine was patented by Isaac Singer five years later.Today, we take washing machines for granted, but there was none before 1869. The revolving drum（旋转桶）of that first machine set a pattern for the future, but it was crude by today’s standards. The drum was turned by hand, and needed a lot of effort. Eight years passed before someone produced an electric washing machine. The world had to wait even longer for a machine to dry clothes. The first spin-drier was another American invention, patented in 1924; but it was 20 years before such machines were widely used.It was yet another American, called Bissell, who introduced the carpet sweeper. He patented the original machine back in 1876. It didn’t pick up dirt very well, but it was quicker than a dustpan and brush. Thirty-six years later, even the carpet sweeper was old-fashioned: modern homes now have a vacuum cleaner with an electric motor to suck the dust.71. Inventors patent the inventions so as to __________ .A. produce more machinesB. avoid being copied by othersC. make the inventions more popularD. make more money72. Whose sewing machine could do far more than the work that was done by five skilled sewing women?A. Thomas Saint’s.B. Bartelemy Thimonier’s.C. Elias Howe’s.D. Isaac Singer’s.73. According to the article, modern inventors __________.A. followed the pattern of the first revolving drum but improve it muchB. only imitated the first washing machineC. powered the first ever-made washing machine by electricityD. had to wait for the first spin-drier for a long time74. The underlined word “crude” in the sentence “but it was crude by today’s standards.” probably means __________.A. uselessB. ugly-lookingC. roughD. not skillfully made75. The article mainly tells us about __________.A. the great inventors in the worldB. the important inventions in the worldC. the short history of household machinesD. the importance of the machines used in the home第Ⅱ卷（共35分）第四部分写作（共二节, 满分35分）第一节阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分, 满分10分）In our culture, the source s of what we call a sense of “mastery” —feeling important and worthwhile—and the sources of what we call a sense of “pleasure”—finding life enjoyable—are not always the same. In the past women often were told “You can’t have i t all.” Sometimes what the sp eaker really is saying is: “You choose a career, so you can’t expect to have closer relationships or a happy family life.” or “You have a wonderful husband and children—what’s all this about wanting a career?” But today women need to_____________, if they are to feel good about themselves.Our study shows that, for women, well-being has two aspects. One is mastery, which includes self-respect, a sense of control over your life, and low levels of anxiety and depression. Mastery is closely related to the “doing” side of life, to work and activity. Pleasure is the other aspect, and it is made up of happiness, satisfaction and optimism. It is tied more closely to the “feeling” side of life. The two are independent of each other. A woman could be high in mastery and low in pleasure, and vice versa（反之亦然）. For example, a woman who has a good job, but whose mother has just died, might be feeling very good about herself and in control of her work life, but the pleasure side could be damaged for a time.The concepts of mastery and pleasure can help us identify the sources of well-being for women, and correct past mistakes. In the past, women were encouraged to look only at the feeling side of life as the source of all well-being. But we know that both mastery and pleasure are important. And mastery seems to be achieved largely through work. In our study, all the groups of employed women were valued significantly higher in mastery than women who were not employed.A woman’s well-being is developed when she takes on multiple roles. At least by middle adulthood, the women who were involved in a combination of roles—marriages, motherhood, and employment—were the highest in well-being, in spite of warnings about stress and strain.76.

2021年高三英语暑期作业(一) 含答案
2021年高三英语暑期作业（一）含答案xx.7.15一、阅读理解AMy color television has given me nothing but a headache. I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of a lot of clothes that wouldn’t fit. I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model. I realized this a day later, when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid. The set worked so beautifully when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night. Fortunately, I didn’t get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed.Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static(静电)noise. For some reason, when certain show s switched into a mercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds. Gradually, this noise began to appear during a show, and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then changeit back. Sometimes this technique would not work, and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound. I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉) shaking my set.When neither of these methods removed the static noise, I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my fist, and it stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the set is working well now, but I keep expecting more trouble.1. Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set?A. He got an older model than he had expected.B. He couldn’t return it when it was broken.C. He could have bought it at a lower price.D. He failed to find any movie shows on it.2. Which of the following can best replace the phrase “signed off” in Paragraph 1?A. ended all their programsB. provided fewer channelsC. changed to mercialsD. showed all-night movies3. How did the author finally get his TV set working again?A. By shaking and hitting it.B. By turning it on and off.C. By switching channels.D. BY having it repaired.4. How does the author sound when telling the story?A. Curious.B. Anxious.C. Cautious.D. Humorous.BYour house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. You can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.Open the curtains and turn up the lights. Dark environments are more likely to encourage ove reating, for people are often less self-conscious(难为情)when they’re poorly lit places—and so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesn’t have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites. In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors make us feel less hungry. So when it’s time to repaint, go blue.Don’t forget the clock—or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories(卡路里)per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes. And while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.Downsize the dishes. Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat. we eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one, total intake(摄入)jumps by 14 percent. And we’ll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glassthan a tall, skinny glass.5. The text is especially helpful for those who care about.A. their home fortsB. their body shapeC. house buyingD. healthy diets6. A home environment in blue can help people .A. digest food betterB. reduce food intakeC. burn more caloriesD. regain their appetites7. What are people advised to do at mealtimes?A. Eat quickly.B. Play fast music.C. Use smaller spoons.D. Turn down the lights.8. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Is Your House Making You Fat?B. Ways of Serving DinnerC. Effects of self-ConsciousnessD. Is Your Home Environment Relaxing?CMore students than ever before are taking a gap year(间隔年)before going to university. It used to be called the “year off” between school and university. The gap-year phenomenon originated(起源) with the months left over to Oxbridge applicants between entrance exams in N ovember and the start of the next academic year.This year, 25,310 students who have accepted places in higher education institutions have put off th eir entry until next year, according to statistics on university entrance provided by the University and College Admissions Service (UCAS).That is a record 14.7% increase in the number of students taking a gap year. Tony Higgins from UCAS said that the statistics are good news for everyone in higher education. “Students who take a well-planned year out are more likely to be satisfied with, and plete, their chosen course. Students who take a gap year are often more mature and responsible,”he said.But not everyone in happy. Owain James, the president of the National Union of Students (NUS), argued that increase is evidence of student hardship—young people are being forced intoearning money before finishing their education. “New students are now aware that they are likely to leave university up to ￡15，000 in debt. It is not surprising that more and more students are taking a gap year to earn money to support their study for the degree. NUS statistics show that over 40% of students are forced to work during term time and the figure increases to 90% during vacation periods,” he said.9. What do we learn about the gap year from the text?A. It is flexible in length.B. It is a time for relaxation.C. It is increasingly popular.D. It is required by universities.10. According to Tony Higgins, students taking a gap year.A. are better prepared for college studiesB. know a lot more about their future jobsC. are more likely to leave university in debtD. have a better chance to enter top universities11. How does Owain James feel about the gap-year phenomenon?A. He’s puzzled.B. He’s worried.C. He’s surprised.D. He’s annoyed.12. What would most students do on their vacation according to NUS statistics?A. Attend additional courses.B. Make plans for the new term.C. Earn money for their education.D. Prepare for their graduate studies.DChoose Your One-Day Tours!Tour A—Bath＆Stonehenge including entrance fees to the ancient Roman bathrooms and Stonehenge—￡37 until 26 March and ￡39 thereafter.Visit the city with over 2,000 years of history and Bath Abbey, the Royal Crescent and the Costume Museum.

She began teaching school when most teachers were men at that time. Later, she became one of the firstwomen ever to be employed by the government.Her career in helping the sick began when her brother David became her first patient. He fell down from the roof of a house when Clara was just 11 years old. She stayed by his side and looked after him for three years, learning how to give him all his medicines.When the Civil War began in 1861, she immediately recognized that the poorly equipped soldiers needed help. Instead of waiting for others to step in, Clara collected necessary things onher own, asked the public for donations and learned how to store and distribute them to soldiers. She also read to the soldiers and wrote letters for them.After the Battle of Cedar Mountain in northern Virginia in 1862, Clara arrived at a field hospital at midnight with a vehicle full of supplies. A doctor named Paul Smith at that hospital would later write, “I thought heaven had sent out an angel that night — her assistance arrived at exactly the right time.”In 1869, Clara went to Europe and learned about the International Committee of the Red Cross. Upon her return to the United States, she successfully founded the American Red Cross. She led the organization for the next 23 years. Her last field mission (使命) as president of the American Red Cross was to help the victims of the 1900 Galveston hurricane. She did not retire (退休) from the American Red Cross until she was 83. True to her nature, Clara always went to where the need was the greatest.Today, the American Red Cross continues the mission Clara started more than 100 years ago. With the help of thousands of volunteers, the American Red Cross provides relief to victims of disasters, as well as helps people prevent, prepare for and respond to all sorts of emergencies.1.We can learn from Paragraph 2 that Clara Barton was _____.A. honestB. caringC. talentedD. modest2. After the Civil War broke out, Clara Barton _____.A. joined the army and fought bravelyB. went to Europe for further studyC. continued to work as a teacherD. did a lot to help soldiers3. Seeing Clara Barton’s arrival, Dr. Smith must have felt _____.A. excited and gratefulB. proud and joyfulC. shy and nervousD. sad and sorry（2）Being able to count at least ten people as friends makes us happy, but those with five or fewer are likely to be miserable, researchers say.Their study of hundreds of men and women also found that people who feel satisfied with their lives always have lots of close friends and regularly make new ones. While it is not clear whether our friends make us happy or we make friends because we are happy, the researchers say it is clear that we should maintain our friendships. Psychologist Richard Tunney said, “Whatever the reason is, actively working on friendships in the same way as to maintain a marriage is a prerequisite(必备条件) to happiness.”Dr. Tunney, of Nottingham University, quizzed(询问) more than 1,700 people about their satisfaction with their lives and the state of their friendships. Those with five friends or fewer had just a 40 percent chance of being happy. In other words, they were more likely to be unhappy than happy. Ten was the first number at which people were morelikely to be happy than unhappy.The happiest people were those with dozens of friends, according to the study, which was carried out for the National Lottery(彩票).For women, this meant having 33 friends; for men, the number was 49. Dr. Tunney said, “People who were extremely satisfied with their lives had twice the number of friends of people who were extremely dis satisfied.” Women tended to have fewer friends than men but formed tighter relationships. Interestingly, the study found that childhood friends are no more likely to make us happy than people we become close to later in life. Lottery winners, however, have a different opinion on life. They are always happier than others despite spending their time with a small circle of old friends. This could be because they trust people they’ve known for a long time.1. What’s the best title for this passage?A. The Secret to Happiness Is to Make New Friends.B. Having at Least 10 Good Friends Makes People Happy.C. Why Most People Like to Make Friends Regularly.D. Men’s and Women’s Friends Are Different.2. Which of the following opinions may Richard Tunney NOT agree with?A. People with few friends are sure to be unhappy.B. Our friends can make us happy.C. Happiness may come from a good marriage life.D. We may become happier if we have more friends.3. According to the passage, lottery winners ________.A. enjoy making new friendsB. make new friends easilyC. like staying with old friendsD. have no time to make friends（3）Top 3 Self-Discipline TechniquesSelf-discipline is the key to leading a healthier, happier and more successful life,1.
