1.A woman who had been diagnosed with cancer had been given3 months to live. So she told her pastor which songs she wanted sung at the service,what scriptures she would like read,and what she wanted to be wearing. The woman also told her pastor that she wanted to be buried with her favorite bible.“There’s one more thing.” she said excitedly.“I want to be buried with a fork in my right hand.”The pastor stood looking at the woman not knowing quite what to say.The woman explained,“In all my years of attending church socials and functions where food was involved;my favorite part was when whoever was clearing away the dishes of the main course would lean over and say ‘you can keep your fork’. It was my favorite part because I knew that something better was coming. So I just want people to see me there in that casket with a fork in my hand and I want them to wonder ‘What’s with the fork?’ Then I want you to tell them,‘Something better is coming,so keep your fork too.’”1/ 15The pastor’s eyes were welled up with tears of joy as he hugged the woman goodbye. He knew this would be one of the last times he would see her before her death. But he also knew that the woman had a better grasp of heaven than he did. She knew that something better was coming.At the funeral the pastor told the people how he could not stop thinking about the fork and told them that they probably would not be able to stop thinking about it either.So the next time you reach down for your fork,let it remind you so gently that there is something better coming.Keep your fork.

That night when everyone went to bed, Bunny couldn't sleep. He still couldn't think of what he wanted his Christmas gift to be. He wondered how Father Christmas would know what to bring him if he didn't know himself.As he was sitting up in bed, Bunny heard a big noise on the roof (屋顶) and a sound downstairs. It was Father Christmas, he realized. Bunny jumped out of bed and raced down the hall to the stairs hoping to have a look at the old man with his own eyes.3/ 15By the time Bunny reached the bottom of the stairs, though, everything was again silent. Beautiful gifts were piled (堆积) under the Christmas tree, but Father Christmas was gone. He looked for him for a few minutes, but it was already too late. Bunny turned to climb back upstairs when he heard a cry.“Hello,” said Bunny. “Is somebody there?”He was answered by another cry. Bunny looked around the big pile of gifts to see what was making the noise. Right under the tree was a funny looking brown animal with big feet and sad eyes. Bunny might have mistaken it for a dog, if it hadn't been for the antlers (⿅⾓) on its head.“Are you a reindeer (驯⿅)?” asked Bunny.“Yes,” replied the animal, “my name is Ralph.”“And you were pulling Father Christmas' sled (雪橇)?”“I was until I got airsick,” replied Ralph, “I'm afraid I wasn't cut out for the job. Now I'm stuck here and I don't know how to get back to the North Pole.”“Well, if you like, you can stay with us as a friend,” said Bunny. As he made the offer, Bunny suddenly realized the gift he wanted from Father Christmas was a new friend!1. Why couldn't Bunny fall asleep on Christmas Eve?4/ 15A. He had a lot of things to do.B. He was disturbed by a big noise.C. He was thinking of what gift he would get.D. He wanted to have a look at the reindeer.2. As soon as Bunny came downstairs, he _____.A. was probably very sadB. found what he wantedC. ran into a reindeerD. heard a loud cry3.

A special Christmas giftC. A quiet but smart boyD. A lovely reindeer3.Online shopping has become more and more popular these years. Women have jumped ahead of men for the first time in using the Internet to do their holiday shopping, according to a study published last week in5/ 15the US.For years men have been more likely to shop on the Internet than women, but during the 2013 holiday season 58 percent of those shopping online were women.“It shows how popular the Internet is becoming,” said Lee Rainie, director of the Pew Internet and American Life Project group, which carried out the study. Rainie said it was only a matter of time before women shoppers caught up with men. This is because women traditionally make decisions about spending.Users were more likely to shop online to save time. Internet users between the ages 18 and 29 were responsible for some of the surprising increase in the online gift- buying population this time around.However, three-quarters of the US Internet users did not buy holiday gifts online in 2013. They worried about credit card security(安全),or just compared online prices with off-line prices, then dashed off to the shops to get the best deals.“But even if shoppers don’t buy online, websites are becoming promotion(促销)tools for stores,’,said Dan Hess’vice president of Com Score Network Inc. Hess said that actually most stores,websites can make customers fully believe the security of their credit card numbers. And most are able to ensure that gifts arrive on time.6/ 15It’s all about making the shopping experience more efficient, more reliable and more comfortable,” Hess said.(1) Which of the following statements is true?A. There were fewer women online shoppers than men in 2013.B. More women shopped online than men in 2013.C. Most of the Internet users between the ages 18 and 29 were women.D. people in the US were more likely to buy gifts online.(2) What does the underlined part “dashed off” probably mean? _A. 关闭B. 推迟C. 匆忙D. 起飞(3) According to Dan Hess, shopping online is ________.A. unsafeB. convenientC. a waste of moneyD. cheaper4.Most people know the feeling when you walk into a lift(电梯)with other people. A study has found that where people stand is based on their social position on entering the lift.7/ 15Rebekah Rousi,a Ph. D. student, did a study of lift behavior in two of the tallest office buildings in Adelaide, Australia. As part of her research, she took a total of 30 lift rides in the two buildings, and discovered there was a fixed order about where people chose to stand.In her research paper, she wrote that more senior men seemed to walk straight towards the back of the lift. She said, “In front of them were younger men, and in front of them were women of all ages.” She also noticed there was a difference in the direction where people looked during the ride. “Men watched the monitors, looked in the side mirrors (in one building) to see themselves, and in the door mirrors (in the other building) to watch others. Women would watch the monitors and avoid looking into others,eyes (unless in conversations) and the mirrors. ”Rebekah Rousi concluded that shyer people stand toward the front,where they can’t see other passengers,while fearless people stand in the back, where they have a good view of everyone else.(1) According to the study, where people stand in a lift is decided by ________.A. their social positionB. the monitorsC. other passengersD. others’ position8/ 15(2) Who are most likely to go to the back of the lift?A.

But there are a few people who will get into their cars and go straight for the center of the storm. These people are willing to risk(冒…危险)being killed by floods or 100-kilometer-an-hour winds for the excitement of watching the storm close up.“Storm chasing(追逐)” is becoming an increasingly popular hobby, especially in the Midwest of the United States, where there are frequent storms between March and July. A storm chaser begins the day by checking the Internet for the latest weather reports, and then drives up to 1,000 kilometers to where the storm will be and waits for it to develop.Although anyone can do it, storm chasing is extremely dangerous. The power of a big storm can throw a cow into the air or destroy a whole house in seconds. Storm chasers are also often hurt in accidents caused by driving in a heavy rain. If you are a beginner, it is much safer to join a group for storm-chasing vacations during the storm season.Even then, storm chasing is not all adventure and excitement. “Storm chasing is 95% driving,” says Daniel Lynch, who spends most of his summer storm-chasing. “Sometimes you can sit around for hours waiting for something to happen, and all you get is blue sky and a few light showers.”However, for storm chasers, it is all worth it. “When you get close to a storm, it is the most exciting sight youwill ever see in your life,” says Jasper Morley. “Every storm is an example of the power of nature. It is the greatest show on Earth.”21. For storm chasing, the first thing storm chasers do is to .A. head straight for the center of the stormB. get into the car for safetyC. wait patiently for the storm to developD. collect information about a coming storm22. Beginners of storm chasing are advised .A. not to drive in a heavy rainB. to do it in an organized wayC. not to get too close to a stormD. to spend more time on it in summer23. By saying “it is all worth it” in the last paragraph, the author means that .A. storm chasing costs a lot of moneyB. storm chasing is worth hours of waitingC. efforts in storm chasing are well paidD. a storm presents the greatest show on Earth24. What can we learn from the text?A. Sometimes storm chasers get nothing but disappointmentB. Many storm chasers get killed in the storms.C. Storm chasing is becoming popular around the world/D. Storm chasing is only fit for young people.BPeople fell in love with Elizabeth Taylor in 1944, when she starred in National Velve t—the story of Velvet Brown, a young girl who wins first place in a famous horse race. At first, the producers of the movie told Taylor that she was too small to play the part of Velvet. However, they waited for her for a few months as she exercised and trained—and added three inches to her height in four months! Her acting in National Velvet is still considered the best by a child actress.Elizabeth Taylor was born in London in 1932. Her parents, both Americans, had moved there for business reasons. When World War II started, the Taylor moved to Beverly Hills, California, and there Elizabeth started acting in movies. After her success as a child star, Taylor had no trouble moving into adult(成人)roles and won twice for Best Actress: Butterfield 8(1960) and Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf ? (1966)Taylor’s fame and popularity gave her a lot of power with the movie industry, so she was able to demand very high pay for her movies. In 1963, she received $1 million for her part in Cleopatra—the highest pay received by any star up to that time.Elizabeth Taylor is a legend (传奇人物) of our time. Like Velvet Brown in National Velvet, she has been lucky. She has beauty, fame and wealth. But she is also a hard worker. Taylor seldom acts in movies any more. Instead, she puts her time and efforts into her businesses, and into helping others—several years ago, she founded an organization that has raised more than $40 million for research and education.25. The producers didn’t let Taylor play the part of Velvet at first because they thought she .A. was small in sizeB. was too youngC. did not play well enoughD. did not show much interest26. What Elizabeth Taylor and Velvet Brown had in common was that they were both .A. popular all their livesB. famous actressesC. successful when very youngD. rich and kind-hearted27. Taylor became Best Actress at the age of .A. 12B. 28C. 31D. 3428. In her later life, Elizabeth Taylor devoted herself to .A. doing business and helping othersB. turning herself into a legendC. collecting money for the poorD. going about research and education workCLions are opportunists. They prefer to eat without having to do too much work. When resting in the shade, they are also watching the sky to see what is flying by, and even in the heat of the day they will suddenly start up and run a mile across the plains to find out what is going on. If another animal has made a kill, they will drive it off and take the kill for themselves. A grown lion can easily eat 60 pounds of meat at a single feeding. Often they eat until it seems painful for them to lie down.The lionesses (母狮) , being thinner and faster, are better hunters than the males. But the males don’t mind. After the kill they move in and take the best share.Most kills are made at night or just before daybreak. We have seen many, many daylight attempts but only ten kills. Roughly, it’s about twenty daytime attempts for one kill.When lions are hiding for an attack by a water hole, they wait patiently and can charge at any second. The kill is the exciting moment in the day-to-day life of the lion, since these great animals spend most of their time,about 20 hours a day, sleeping and resting.Lions are social cats, and when they are having a rest, they love to touch each other. After drinking at a water hole, a lioness rests her head on another’s back. When walking, young lion s often touch faces with older ones, an act of close ties among members of the group.29. By describing lions as “opportunists” in Paragraph One, the author means to say that lions .A. are cruel animalsB. are clever animalsC. like to take advantage of other animalsD. like to take every chance to eat30. According to the text, which of the following is true?A. Lions make most kills in the daytime.B. Males care more about eating than active killing.C. Lions are curious about things happening around them.D. It doesn’t take lions too much time to make a kill.31. How can we know that lions are social animals?A. They depend on each other.B. They look after each other well.C. They readily share what they have.D. They enjoy each other’s com pany.32. What would be the best title for the text?A. Powerful LionsB. Lions at Work and PlayC. Lions, Social CatsD. Lions, Skilled HuntersDTo extinguish (熄灭) different kinds of fires, several types of fire extinguishers have been invented. They must be ready for immediate use when fire breaks out. Most portable (手提式的) kinds operate for less than a minute, so they are useful only on small fires. The law requires ships, trains, buses and planes to carry extinguishers.Since fuel, oxygen (氧气) and heat must be present in order for fire to exist, one or more of these things must be removed or reduced to extinguish a fire. If the heat is reduced by cooling the material below a certain temperature, the fire goes out. The cooling method is the most common way to put out a fire. Water is the best cooling material because it is low in cost and easy to get.Another method of extinguishing fire is by cutting off the oxygen. This is usually done by covering the fire with sand, steam or some other things. A blanket may be used to cover a small fire.A third method is called separation, which includes removing the fuel, or material easy to burn, from a fire, so that it can find no fuel.The method that is used to put out a fire depends upon the type of fire. Fires have been grouped in three classes. Fires in wood, paper, cloth and the like are called Class A fires. These materials usually help keep the fire on. Such fires can be stopped most readily by cooling with water.33. If a fire breaks out on a bus, which of the following should be ready there for you to use?A. SandB. WaterC. A blanket.D. An extinguisher.34. To cover some burning wood with a basin in order to stop the fire is an example of .A. separating the fireB. reducing the heatC. removing the fuelD. cutting off the oxygen35. In choosing how to put out a fire, we should first be clear about .A. when it breaks outB. how it comes aboutC. what kind it isD. where it takes place36. What would the author probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?A. Another class of firesB. Another type of extinguishersC. How fires break out.D. How fires can be prevented.EChildhood was an illusion (错觉) and the illusion was this: everything was bigger. No, I mean everything, not just houses and shops and grown-ups, but colors and flowers and journeys, especially journeys which seemed endless. “Are we there yet, Daddy?”Funfairs (游乐场) were huge things that spread for miles around you with noise and lights and exciting danger. Rainy days at home when you were ill seemed to last for ever. Being a grown-up yourself was an unthinkable distant possibility. Every sound was louder, every game was grander, every pain unbearable.As I’ve grown old, life has become sm aller. Tastes have dulled. Surprises have turned into shocks. Days go by unnoticed. How can I regain childhood when it was an illusion?I have only one repeatable and wonderful way and even in this way I can regain only part of that larger world.I can play upon the stage like a child and make the crowd laugh and laugh with them, sometimes helplessly like achild, and then, even though I’m a sixty-one-year-old man, I can almost catch the colors and sounds and stillness of those bigger years when I was little.37. How does the author feel about his childhood?A. It was endless.B. It was unpleasant.C. He is glad that it is over.D. He misses it as a grown-up38. The author thinks that everything was bigger in childhood because .A. children could not make proper judgments.B. children were curious and eager about lifeC. things appeared really big in children’s eyesD. to grow up seemed so long for children39. The world seems to have become smaller to the author because .A. life is disappointingB. time goes by too fastC. he has had too many surprisesD. foods no longer taste delicious40. The author enjoys playing on the stage so as to .A. act like a childB. live an unusual lifeC. make the crowd laughD. regain his childhood。

The counselor(辅导员) is available to help the children with dressing, calming any anxieties, or planning the day ahead. Breakfast is at 8:30 AM in the dining room. The school day begins at 9 AM. Students eat lunch with their classmates in the dining room at noon. At 3 PM each group returns to their dormitory(宿舍) and meets with at least one counselor for a light snack(点心) while discussing the day's events and plans for the rest of the day. The day is planned to suit the individual(个人的) needs of each child. The activities in which the children engage(从事) are widely varied and may be indoors or outdoors, quiet or active, in the dormitory, in one of the recreational areas, or off school grounds.

This period is often called the Victorian Age.Queen Victoria was a stern and serious woman. One reason she was so serious was that she had suffered a great loss. When she was twenty years old, she married a German prince named Albert. Victoria and Albert were deeply in love, and their marriage was extremely happy. In 1861, after they had been married for twenty-one years, Albert died, leaving Queen Victoria heartbroken. For the rest of her life, the lonely Victoria mourned his loss.It was customary in those days for a widow to dress in black for a short time after the death of her husband. But Queen Victoria dressed in black for forty years. And for forty years, as another sign of her grief, she wrote her letters on white paper edged in black.Even before Prince Albert died, Queen Victoria was known as a very serious woman. She had a strong sense of duty and worked very hard at all her tasks. In her diary she wrote, “I love to be employed; I hate to be idle.” She never forgot that she was Bri tain’s queen and always acted with great dignity.

As it was a present, I spent twice its worth in advertising, but didn't get it back.”“How did you write your advertisement?” asked one of the listeners, a merchant.“Here it is,” said the man, taking out of his pocket a slip cut from a newspaper. The offer man took it and re ad, “Lost from the City Church last Sunday evening, a black silk umbrella. The gentleman who finds it will receive ten shillings on leaving it at No. 10 Broad Street.”“Now,” said the merchant, “I often advertise, and find that it pays me well. But the way in which an advertisement is expressed is of very importance. Let us try for your umbrella again. and if it fails, I'll buy you anew one.”The merchant then took a slip of paper out of his pocket and wrote:“If the man who was seen to take an umbrella fro m the City Church last Sunday evening doesn't wish to get into trouble, he will return the umbrella to No. 10 Broad Street. He is well known.”This appeared in the paper, and on the following morning, the man was astonished when he opened the front door. In the doorway lay at least twelve umbrellas of all sizes and colors that had been thrown in, and his own was among the number.

They went swimming in the ocean without giving a thought to what was underwater. But those days are long gone.

AMr. Read was born in a small village with high mountains all around it.He has few fields and he can’t get enough food for his family.He’s often worried about it.So he works harder and harder and tries his best to get more money.One afternoon,Mr. Read went out to look for some grass for his cows.It was very hot and he had to have a swim.Suddenly he saw a big tortoise in the water.He sw am there and caught it.The next morning he went to the town to sell it in the markets.When he was walking in the street, a car hit him down and he was hurt.He was sent to hospital at once.The doctors looked him over and had an operation on him.Two weeks l ater he felt much better.The doctors were satisfied with the operation and said,“You’ll be fully recovered in a week.We’re sure you can write when you leave hospital.”“It’s really a miracle(奇迹)!”shouted Mr. Read,“I could neither read nor write before!”1.The Reads have little food becauseA.they live in a small village B.they have few fieldsC.they’re too lazy to work D.nobody would help them to getmoney2.Mr. Read jumped into the river becauseA.he wanted to get some grass in the waterB.he wanted to look for a tortoise in the waterC.he wanted to have a good rest in the waterD.he wanted to have a swim3.Mr. Read’s was hurt in the traffic accident.A.head B.leg C.right hand D.left hand4.In Chinese the phrase“be fully recovered”meansA.完全覆盖B.全部找回C.恢复疲劳D.恢复健康5.

You don’t need to care about those people who have beautiful houses withlarge gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and s o on. Why?Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time.In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons, your parent s are always taking good care of your life and your health; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice them, you can see that happiness is always around you.Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that can’t be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself. So you cannot always say you are poor and you have bad luck. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving(旋转) door. When it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person.1. Happiness is for_________.A. those who have large and beautiful housesB. those who have carsC. those who have a lot of moneyD. all people2. When you do something wrong, _______________.A. you may correct itB. you will have no chance to challenge yourselfC. anybody will laugh at youD. you will be happy3. Which is TRUE according to the passage?A. When you get success, your friends will be very proud of you.B. You can get help from others when you make mistakes.C. You can still be a happy person even if you have little money.D. All the above.4. Why do we say “Happiness is not the same as money”? Because ___________.A. money always brings happinessB. money doesn’t always bring happinessC. everything can be bought with moneyD. only rich people have happiness5. Which is the title of the passage?A. Do Something Good to OthersB. Happy and LuckyC. HappinessD. Life and SuccessCOne night, a little before nine o’clock, Dr Johnson was answering a telephone call.

It's time to get up!" my mother said while she was pushing me. I opened my eyes and looked at the clock. "Oh dear! It's a quarter to eight already. I'll be late for school again," I thought. I jumped out of the bed, washed my face, then hurried to the bus stop without breakfast. As soon as I got on the bus, it started running. "I'm sure I can get to the school on time," I said to myself. Suddenly the bus stopped. The bus driver got off the bus, then got on the busagain and said, "I'm sorry, ladies and gentlemen. There's something wrong with the bus.

But before I got to the school, it began to rain hard.I reached the classroom but I was wet shivering with cold. The physics teacher had already begun his lesson. It was Mr. Smith.

"I'm very sorry, Mr. Smith. I'm late again," I said with a red face."It's you again, Jim," Mr. smith said angrily. "I've told you not be late, but you…" he suddenly stopped and looked at my wet clothes. He turned to the class and said, "I'm very sorry, my boys and girls."

抓主干就是抓句子的主体部分,也就是主语和谓语,它们是传达信息的主要载体;理枝叶就是分析句子的附加部分,不论它们有多长,有多复杂,它们都是辅助成分,我们只要明确它们与主体的关系就可以了。

如:The moon is so far from the earth that even if huge trees were growing on themountains, and elephants were walking about, we could not see them through the most powerful telescopes which have ever been invented.这个长句的主干就是The moon is far from the earth,其他部分,如状语从句、定语从句等,都是为突出主题服务的。

高一(初升高)英语衔接阅读理解作业10英语阅读AIf you look at the top of your phone, you'll usually see a little symbol that says 3G or 4G. The "G" stands for the "generation" (代)of your mobile network. But the symbols will become things of the past after 5G networks fully arrive.On March 30, Shanghai vice-mayor Wu Qing made the first 5G video call on a Huawei Mate X Smartphone. Shanghai has also become the first city in China to start testing 5G networks.About 100 times faster than 4G networks, 5G will let people download and upload data(数据) faster than ever before. But 5G won't just bring faster mobile internet. People can use it for many other things as well.For example, 5G will help to make self-driving cars safer. Today's self-driving test cars have one problem-lag(延迟). When the car "sees" an obstacle(障碍物), it sends this information to a data center and receives instructions, However, it will be some time before it sends and receives this information. With this kind of lag, the cars might crash because they don't receive instructions in time. With 5G, this lag will be greatly lowered, making the cars safer.5G could also be used to power the internet of things (IoT), that is, a large online network that connects all things and people. Fast internet speeds will be the key to developing this technology.The IoT could be used in a lot of ways. For example, with IoT, your refrigerator could automatically (自动地) place an order online for eggs when it finds that there are no eggs left inside. (1)Which city was 5G tested for the first time?A. Beijing.B. Shanghai.C. Shenzhen.(2)What can we infer(推测) according to the passage?.A. 5G is widely used in China now.B. 5G networks will make our lives more convenient.C. There are no symbols at the top of our phones.(3)The writer uses self-driving cars as an example to .A. explain how 5G's fast speed can be helpfulB. warn about the possible dangers of self-driving carsC. explain how self-driving cars work(4)What is IoT according to the passage?A. A robot that can do housework.B. An online store where you can buy anything.C. A large online network that connects things and people.(5)Which sentence is right according to the passage?A. 5G will help us buy eggs quickly.B. Robots can help us buy eggs online.C. Our refrigerator can order eggs online for us.阅读理解BAccording to a 2018 study from San Francisco State University, nearly 2. 4 billion people around the world used a smartphone in 2017. By the end of 2019, more than a third of the global population will be using a smartphone.However, smartphone technology can be a double-edged sword. On the one hand, itsends us unlimited amounts of information. On the other hand, using a smartphone may become an addiction.Erik Peper and Richard Harvey are both health education professors at San Francisco State university. They led the study. Peper explains that smartphone addiction forms connections in the brain that are similar to drug addiction.And these connections form slowly over time. Also, addiction to social media may affect our emotional state. The two professors asked 135 university students about their habit of smartphone use and their feelings. They found that students who used their phones the most reported higher levels of feeling lonely, depressed and anxious. Peper and Harvey do not blame users for their technology addiction. They believe it is the tech industry's desire to make more money that is to blame for the technology addiction. The researchers warm that workers in the technology industry know how to control our brains and turn us into addicts.But the researchers say that we can limit our brains to be less addicted to our phones and computers. Enk Peper suggests timing off our phones before we sleep or do something important. The researchers also suggest taking control of when and where you answer texts or emails. You do not need to answer them all. And you certainly don't need to answer them as soon as you get them. They also suggest putting limits on the time you spend on social media. If you want to catch up with friends on Facebook, set aside a small amount of time to it. You should focus on important tasks and do not allow technology to disturb you.(1)What can we infer from Paragraph 1?A. Smartphone use has become extremely common.B. Most young people can't live without smartphones.C. Smartphones make our life more colorful and convenient.D. Most people consider smartphones as the greatest invention.(2)The underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 means smartphone technology____.A. has a brilliant futureB. can be better than most people thinkC. has both advantages and disadvantageD. can give us unlimited amounts of information(3)What did Enk Peper and Richard Harvey find about smartphone use?A. It can help reduce loneliness.B. It's more popular with students.C. It's preferred by young people feeling lonely.D. It can harm students' emotional state in many ways.(4)What does the last paragraph mainly want to tell us?A. Social media isn't that important to us.B. We can train our brine to do many things.C. We shouldn't become addicted to our smartphones.D. There are ways to deal with Smartphone use addiction.(5)Which of the followings is True?A. We can use smartphones to deal with loneliness.B. An addiction can't be controlled if we still use smartphones.C. There were nearly 2. 4 billion people using smartphones in the world in 2017.D. Stop using smartphones if you don't know when and where you should answer the emails.高一(初升高)英语衔接阅读理解作业11阅读理解 CAt some point in life, many people develop a mental (精神) problem.While most people get over it, for others it doesn't go away easily.The WHO says that about 20 percent of teenagers worldwide suffer from mental illness. It's thought that the number of teenagers with mental illness around the world will increase by half by 2020. It will become one of the main causes of illness, and even death.In China, the picture isn't bright, either. About one tenth of teenagers under the age of 17 have a mental health challenge.The world is changing fast. Study and relationships have always caused stress, but today the stress is much higher than before, the WHO said.A research centre in Oxford University says that young people today have big stresses at school. For example, they experience bullying (欺凌). In a 2017 report, the centre noted that the Internet was a special source (渠道) of stress. Online, young people often see "messages about perfection" and this causes the young "great uncertainty about their futures", says the centre.Also, according to China Daily, Chinese people don't ask for help with their mental problems. They fear that others will think less of them if they say that they are in mental trouble. Elaine Peng, a US mental health educator, makes a similar point. And in the UK, over three quarters of young people believe their mental problems have a social stigma. It is reported in 2017 that a quarter of young UK people wouldn't ask for help if they developed a mental problem.Young people who don't ask for help for their condition may be creating problems for themselves in the future. Elaine Peng warned that, "If we hide our mental health, it may remain a problem forever.""My message for young people is, if you feel something is wrong within you—ask for help," he told China Daily.(1)Which of the following is NOT the cause of stress according to the passage?A. Heavy schoolworkB. Being bullied at school.C. Some information from the Internet.D. Certainty about the future.(2)Why don't Chinese people ask for help with their mental problems?A. They don't think them serious.B. They can get over them in time.C. They can keep their mental health secret.D. They are afraid of being looked down upon.(3)What does the underlined word "stigma" most probably mean in Chinese?A. 羞耻B. 印象C. 援助D. 危害(4)Elaine Peng advised the teenagers with mental illness to ______.A. think less of themselvesB. avoid being bulliedC. ask for help as soon as possibleD. stay away from the Internet.(5)The main purpose of the passage is to ______.A. ask research centers for helpB. tell about teenagers' stressesC. call public attention on teenagers with mental illnessD. show some different opinions from different countries阅读理解 DMy first day of school was very interesting and couldn't be easily forgotten. I went to my science class in the morning and found a seat in the back. I waited there for 15 minutes before the bell rang. The science teacher told us about some class rules. No one talked to me and I didn't talk to anyone else. I was one of those very shy girls. After the science class, I had an English class. I thought it would be boring but later I found it very funny. When the classes of the morning ended I went to lunch. I sat outside the dining room with no one to talk to and no food because I was too nervous to join the lunch line. I kept looking around hoping to see someone I knew but I never saw anyone. Lunch ended and I went to have my art class. I was the first one there and not even my teacher was there yet. So I sat at my desk and started drawing some pictures. I didn't notice the rest of the class walking in or the girl that was standing behind me till I was surprised by the voice, "So what are you drawing?" It was a girl who had really long hair. She ended up being my best friend and one of the kindest and liveliest girls I know. In the next class meeting, the teacher asked us to talk about the past holiday. I was glad to make some new friends in the class. The first day of high school was hard for me but I got through it.(1)What do we know about the writer's science class?A.

It seemed you knew less and less. That is because when you learned a new concept(概念). You found that there was a lot more to know about it.Usually, people think they need to get more and more information before trying a new idea. There is nothing wrong with learning a lot, but when you let learning get in the way of doing, you will never get going.One of the best ways to learn is to take action and learn from the results that you get from those actions. Don't be afraid of not being perfect and just take the first step. You will go further than those who are still in preparation. It's good to be prepared, but over-preparation in trying to reach a goal won't get you results. The knowledge and skills that you will need will be picked up along the way.If a baby wants to learn how to walk, it doesn't do it by just sitting there and thinking about how to walk. The best way for a baby to walk is to actually get up and start walking. Sure it may fall, but with every fall, it learns what is working and what is not and adjusts(调整)to it. By doing this over and over, it will finally learn to walk. This is the method you should use when you want to achieve your goals as well. It works. Learning more is great but if all you're doing is learning and not taking action, it's time to change that. Just take the first step.(1)When you learned something new, you found there was to know about it.A. lessB. nothingC. everythingD. more(2)Which is NOT true according to the passage?A. People need to learn a lot before trying a new idea.B. One of the best ways to learn is to take action.C. Learning has nothing to do with doing.D. Over-preparation is not good for reaching a goal.(3)A baby should when it wants to learn how to walk.A. get up and start walkingB. sit there and think about how to walkC. learn from its parentsD. read books about how to walk(4)We can usually read the passage in .A. a storybookB. a newspaperC. an advertisementD. a guidebook(5)The purpose of the passage is .A. to tell us how to learn moreB. to tell us how to be successfulC. to talk about the importance of doingD. to talk about the importance of learning阅读理解FMany cars in advertisements are red, blue or green but almost 75 percent of new cars sold are black, white, silver or grey.A survey shows people prefer the car colors that don't show dirt such as grey. That means the owners can wash their cars less, saving money. Besides, some areas that are short of water do not allow people to wash their cars often.According to another survey, white cars are often sold more than cars of other colors. In China, car buyers say white makes a small car look bigger. Car buyers in other countries also like white. And the research also suggests that there is a lower risk of accidents during the day for white cars compared with darker ones. People also think the temperature inside white cars is lower than that in cars of other colors.At present, every year about 11 percent of cars sold are red and 8 percent are blue. Green has become less popular. In the mid 1990s, green was the most popular color in many places of the world. But today, green cars are hard to find.Sometime in the future, people may not have to choose the color of their car technology may let owners change their car's paint color anytime. (1)You can often see cars in advertisements.A. whiteB. blackC. redD. silv er(2)Car buyers choose grey because they .A. can wash their cars lessB. don't need to wash carsC. can pay less money for carsD. don't allow washing cars(3)According to the passage, white cars look than those of other colors.A. saferB. darkerC. cheaperD. bigger (4)Green cars .A. make up 11% of the cars soldB. are hard to find all the timeC. were the most popular in the mid 1990sD. were less popular than blue cars in the past(5)In the future, we can .A. choose cars in all colorsB. paint our cars any color anywhereC. buy cars in all colorsD. change our car's paint color anytime高一(初升高)英语衔接阅读理解作业14阅读 AWhat subject do you worry about the most at school? Many students worry about math. Some students can't sleep well the day before a math exam. Others may feel very nervous during the exam itself. But there might be a way to make the subject less stressful(压力大的)."For people who are worried about math, posture (姿势) makes a big difference," Erik Paper from San Francisco State University told the Daily Mail. That's right – sitting up straight can help you do better on math exams.Scientists tested 125 college students. They asked them to do a simple math exam while sitting in a slumped-over (趴倒的) posture, or sitting up straight. After the test, 56 percent of students said the exam was easier to do if they were sitting up straight.Slumping over is a defensive(戒备的) posture. It can bring about bad memories in the body and brain. This can stop you from thinking clearly, Paper said.Students who were not nervous about taking the math exam did not necessarily benefit(受益) from better posture. But they did find that doing math while slumped over was more difficult, Science Daily reported.Good posture isn't just helpful for taking math exams. Sportspeople, musicians and public speakers can all benefit from better posture. When you feel stressed out, you can also try to sit up straight or stand tall. It can help you feel more certain and focus better.(1)What posture can make people feel less stressed during math exams?A. Sitting up straight.B. Hanging your head.C. Lying on your back.D. Raising one hand.(2)What did the scientists ask the college students to do during the test?A. To do sit-ups.B. To count numbers.C. To think carefully.D. To sit in different postures.(3)How many students in the test benefited from the better posture?A. All the 125 students.B. Less than half of them.C. 56 percent of them.D. None of the students.(4)The fourth paragraph is written to explain .A. why slumping over makes exams harder to doB. why slumping over is bad for one's healthC. why some people slump over during examsD. why people are nervous during math exams(5)Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Slump over to Take ExamsB. Sit up to Do MathC. Better Posture for Nervous StudentsD. Good Advice for Better Exams阅读理解 BWhen it comes to helping developing countries, we often think about offering money in order that they can build schools and hospitals, buy food and medicine, or find cleanwater supplies. These seem to be the most important basic needs in their lives. However, it's far from enough. We have to come up with better ideas.A man called Nicholas Negroponte invented a cheap laptop computer, which he decided to invent after he visited a school in Cambodia. The laptop which Mr. Negroponte has designed is not the same as the normal one that you can buy in the shops. One difference is that it will be covered in rubber so that it is strong and won't be damaged easily. As an electricity supply can be a problem in developing countries, the computer also has a special handle in order that children can wind the computer up to give it extra power when needed.This special laptop computer will cost less than 100 US dollars and Mr. Negroponte wants to produce as many as 15 million laptop computers in the first year. The idea is that these computers will help the children's education as they will be able to access the Internet. These computers might not benefit the people in developing countries immediately, but by improving children's education they should help people to find their own solutions to their problems in the long term.Another idea to help children in developing countries is to recycle old mobile phones so that they can be used again. In the UK. And probably in many other countries too, millions of mobile phones are thrown away every year. The waste crested by throwing away thee old phones is very bed for the environment, so it seems to be an excellent idea to achieve two important goals at the same time. We will reduce the waste we produce and help others.
