AFor the business traveler who’s all about efficiency: check out these hotels that will get you in and out with a minimum trouble. When you’re pressed for time on a business trip, nothing can annoy you more than a slow hotel check-in process. On your next trip, try these hotels that offer a speedier check-in process.● Marriott Detroit AirportAnother option for business travelers in a hurry: Marriott is rolling out its mobile check-in app to 325 hotels this year, including the Marri ott Detroit Airport hotel. (I’ve tested the app itself but not for a real visit quite yet.) Here is the basic idea: you download the iPhone or Android app. The night before, you can “check-in” virtually. When you arrive, you get an alert that the room is ready and your key, which is already tied to your reservation, is waiting for you at the desk.● Hyatt Regency MinneapolisI happened to stay at this hotel recently and liked how fast the kiosk(自助终端) check-in works. The kiosk asks you to insert your credit card, similar to an airport terminal. The whole process took about 3 minutes. When I left, I was equally impressed with the fast check-out: An agent meets you in the lobby with, an iPad and asks for an email to use for a receipt. The big advantage: you never have to wait in line.● Radisson LaCrosseThe Radisson is trying to make the kiosk process even faster. At a few select hotels like the Radisson Lacrosse in Wisconsin，you use a mobile app to register and then receive a bar code by email or text. When you get to the kiosk, you can scan the bar code to get your key without any other steps req uired. It’s super fast. You can find this new check-in system at the Radisson hotels in Salt Lake City, Seattle, and Phoenix as well.21.Which two hotels offer a mobile app for customers to check in?A. Marriott Detroit Airport and Radisson LaCrosse.B. Marriott Detroit Airport and Yotel New York.C. Marriott Detroit Airport and Hyatt Regency Minneapolis.D. Hyatt Regency Minneapolis and Radisson LaCrosse.22. Which hotel will send you a receipt by email?A. Yotel New York.B. Marriott Detroit Airport.C. Radisson LaCrosse.D. Hyatt Regency Minneapolis.23. What is the best title for the passage?A. Fast Ways To Check OutB. Three Hotels With Easy CheckoutC. Comfortable Hotels At Your ServiceD. Hotels For The TravelersBJack Ma is the founder and CEO of Al ibaba Group. He was one of the 100 global “future leaders” of the 2001 World Economic Forum and the “commercial leader” of 2001 elected by US Commercial Association of Asia.Born in the city of Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, Ma graduated from Hangzhou Teachers Institute in 1988 (he failed the entrance exam twice) and became a lecturer in English and International Trade. In 1985, a one-month visit to see an Australian pen pal he had met in Hangzhou changed his life. “Everything I’d learned in China was that China was the richest country in the world,” he said. “When I arrived in Australia, I realized it’s totally different. I started to think you have to use your own mind to judge, to think.” After his return, Ma became the chairman of the Students’ Union of t he whole city.Jack Ma founded in 1999, a China based business to business marketplace site. In 2003, Alibaba launched , a consumer to consumer auction (消费者拍卖) website similar to eBay. Ma said that he got most of his ideas while taking very long, hot showers. He likes to spend time walking his four dogs and playing chess and poker. He said, “I’ve learned a lot of business philosophy by playing poker.”Looking ahead, Ma said that he dreamed of using his group’s resources to improv e the lives of all Chinese people, especially the 900 million farmers. “There must be some way of using our experience, our know-how, and make their life easier,” he said.24. What do we know about Jack Ma from this passage?A. The number one of the 2001 g lobal “future leaders”.B. A great success and very influential in economy.C. T he chairman of the Students’ Union of Hangzhou Teachers Institute.D. The founder and CEO of eBay.25. What changed Jack Ma’s mind greatly?A. His pen pal in Australia.B. His experience in China.C. His failure in the entrance exam.D. His experience in Australia.26. What can we infer from the second paragraph?A. Ma loves China very much.B. Ma knew about Australia well before his visit.C. Ma didn’t know the differences between China and Australia before the visit.D. Ma used to judge things with his own mind.27. What do we know about Jack Ma from the last paragraph?A. Jack Ma will do what he can to make the farmers’ life easier.B. Jack Ma will devote a lot of money to help the Chinese farmers.C. They will teach the farmers how to use their resources.D. Alibaba group’s resources will be given away to the farmers.CLike toolmaking, teaching was once thought to be an capacity of the human mind. It is not actually. “Teaching” requires this: one individual must take time from their own task to demonstrate and instruct with effort and the student must learn a new skill. That’s a tall order.When a young chimpanzee watches a skilled adult and then imitates, that’s lear ning. But the adult has not taken time specifically to instruct, so it is not teaching. In the honeybees’ amazing dance, the dancer takes time to indicate information about a source of food, but observers learn no new skill. They do take time to show, but they do not pass on new skills to learners.Dolphins teach. Atlantic spotted dolphin mothers sometimes free a caught fish in the presence of their youngsters and let their youngsters chase it, catching it again if it’s getting away. Dolphin youngsters also position themselves alongside mothers who are scanning sandy bottoms for hidden fish, and the mother spends extra time demonstrating.Other teachers include: housecats who bring back live prey and let their young learn to catch it, and meerkats (猫鼬) who first bring to their growing young dead scorpions (蝎子), then disabled ones, to demonstrate how to remove the poisonous part on their tails.Like toolmaking and teaching, imitation is also considered to reflect high intelligence. In South Africa lived a baby dolphin named Dolly. One day while she was just six months old, Dolly was watching a trainer standing at the window smoking a cigarette, blowing puffs of smoke. Dolly swam to her mother, got a mouthful of milk, then returned to the window and released a cloud of milk that surrounded her head. The trainer was “absolutely astonished”. Somehow Dolly came up with the idea of using milk to represent smoke. Using one thing to represent something else isn’t just imitation. It is art.28. What does the underlined phrase “ a tall order” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. A clear instruction.B. A high risk.C. A difficult requirement.D. Useful purpose.29. What do we know about honeybees’ dance?A. Presenting.B. Learning.C. Imitating.D. Teaching.30. What can we infer about animals that can teach?A. Bees show their dance to younger generations.B. Housecats teach in a way similar to dolphins.C. Young dolphins must learn how to free a fish.D. Meerkats have poisonous parts on the tails.31. Why does th e author use Dolly’s example?A. To explain dolphins are capable of making art.B. To prove smoking can affect other animals.C. To show animals can be surprisingly intelligent.D. To stress milk is to dolphins what smoke is to men.DHow much weight a baby gains during its first month could determine its IQ, as a new research suggests. The study found that children who gain more weight, and whose heads grow quickly during the first month of life, tend to have a higher IQ when they start school.Researchers at the University of Adelaide, in Australia, studied 13,800 children who were born at full-term. They found that those who put on 40% of their birth weight in the first four weeks had an IQ 1.5 points higher than those who only put on 15% of their birth weight. Those who experienced the biggest growth in head circumference (头围) also had the highest IQs by the age of six. “Head circumference is an indicator of brain volume, so a greater increase in head circumference in a newly-born baby suggests more rapid brain growth,” says the le ading author of the stud y, Dr. Lisa Smithers. She added, “Overall, newly-born children who grew fasterin the first four weeks had higher IQ scores later in life. Those children who gained the mostweight scored especially high on verbal (言语) IQ at age 6. This may be because the neural (神经的) structures for verbal IQ develop earlier in life, which means the rapid weight gain duringthe first month could be having a direct cognitive benefit for the children.”Previous studies have shown the association between early postnatal (产后的) diet and IQ,but this is the first study of its kind to focus on the IQ benefits of rapid weight gain in thefirst month of life. Dr. Smithers says the study further highlights the need for successful feedingof newly-born babies. “We know that many mother s have difficulty establishing breastfeedingin the first week of their babies’ life,” Dr. Smithers said.“The findings of our study suggest that if babies are having feeding problems, there needs tobe early intervention (干预) in the management of that feeding.”32. How did the researchers get their conclusion from the study?A. By asking questions.B. By making comparison.C. By having a discussion.D. By referring to documents.33. W hat can we learn from Dr. Lisa Smithers’s words?A. A kid’s verbal IQ scores reach its highest at age six.B. This study helps parents find feeding problems.C. Quick weight gain benefits newly born babies on verbal IQ.D. This study reminds parents of the need for breastfeeding.34. What’s the difference between this study and the previous ones?A. It associates early postnatal diet with IQ.B. It pays attention to the IQ of newly-born babies.C. It emphasizes the significance of successful feeding.D. It first focuses on the relation between IQ and weight gain in the first month of life.35. What’s the main idea of this passage?A. Head circumference is certainly connected to IQ.B. Babies’ heads grow quickly during the first month.C. Full-term babies tend to be cleverer than premature babies (早产儿).D. The more weight newly-born babies gain, the higher IQ they are likely to have.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

河南省驻马店市新蔡县第一高级中学2024-2025学年高二上学期10月月考英语试题
河南省驻马店市新蔡县第一高级中学2024-2025学年高二上学期10月月考英语试题一、阅读理解Smart watch, a new product, is changing our lifestyle. More and more people prefer to choose a smart watch in their dally life. And there are also many different brands (品牌) to choose, such as Apple, Huawei, Samsung and Xiaomi. Here are the reasons why people choose a smart watch.First of all, it can tell the time like a usual watch. But the most important difference is that a smart watch can also be connected to (连接) the mobile phone. You are able to use it to answer the phone, but a traditional watch can never do that. Besides, the smart watch looks fascinating. It’s very popular among teenagers because it’s cool enough. Thirdly, now many people have known the importance of health. They play sports every day to keep healthy. It’s helpful to know how far they have run or how many steps they have gotten with a watch. The watch shows the results every day and they’ll know whether they achieve their goal or not.However, some parents still don’t want their children to use smart watches too much. In their opinion, wearing smart watches for a long time may cause health problems. They think the teenagers are under the radiation all the time. It’s harmful to teenagers.Each coin (硬币) has two sides. Use it or not? It’s up to you.1．How many Chinese brands of the smart watch are mentioned in the passage?A．Four.B．Three.C．Two.D．One.2．Which one is the same between a smart watch and a traditional one?A．Both can tell the time.B．Both look fascinatingC．Both can be connected to the mobile phone.D．Both can record steps and distance. 3．What is the writer’s opinion about using the smart watches?A．Using smart watches is very good.B．Using smart watches may cause health problems.C．Using smart watches is harmful to teenagers.D．Whether using smart watches or not depends on yourself.4．What does the underlined word “radiation” in the third paragraph mean?A．光能B．辐射C．热能D．太阳能NEW YORK- Salt Lake City is most likely to be awarded the 2034 Winter Olympics later this year, and officials said that its complete infrastructure (基础设施) and enthusiastic public support are what has paved the way. Utah’s capital city hosted the Games back in 2002 and International Olympic Committee representatives recently toured the city and heard plans for its “no-build” Games.No other cities are in the running for the 2034 Games, Salt Lake City 2034 and France 2030 were picked as preferred hosts for the Winter Olympics in November. “They got an opportunity to see our venues and how they are still thriving (兴旺),” Catherine Raney-Norman, chair of the Salt Lake City - Utah Committee for the Games, said in an interview, “They left excited by what they had seen. It was extremely positive.”While other cities have soured on the idea of hosting an Olympics for fears of cost that may be much higher than planned or expected, that is not the case in Salt Lake City, where the legacy (遗产) of the 2002 Games continues to exist. “Our investigation has shown that we have over 80 percent public support,” said Raney-Norman, a four-time Olympic speed skater. “That’s amazing. And we’ve had that consistently for the past 20 years.”The Winter Olympics have grown by about 40 percent, with more sports added since Salt Lake City hosted them, but the city can handle the additional action, Raney-Norman said. “We know that, within our venues and with our technical side, we can host those events,” Raney-Norman said. New events could be held at a temporary downtown venue, while the University of Utah will serve as the athletes’ village, she said.Salt Lake City initially wanted to bid for the 2030 Games, but dropped those plans due to its proximity (靠近) to the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles. “As we look to a future award, and Salt Lake hopefully being officially named as host for 2034, we see opportunities as we continue to cooperate,” Raney-Norman said. “This is an opportunity to promote the Olympic and Paralympic movement in the United States, and that requires cooperation.”5．What does the underlined phrase “sour on” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A．Have a great influence on.B．Come up with.C．Lose interest in.D．Take a positive attitude toward.6．What did Raney-Norman mainly convey in the fourth paragraph?A．How to raise money for the games.B．How to construct the venues.C．How to win local people’s support.D．How to adapt to the changes.7．Why did Salt Lake City give up the plans to apply for the 2030 Games?A．The city may not be ready for the games before 2030.B．Only two years will be left after the Olympics in Los Angeles.C．International Olympic Committee representatives suggested them do so.D．France might have a bigger chance to be picked as the host for the games.8．What can be a suitable title for the news report?A．Salt Lake City expected to hold 2034 Winter Olympic GamesB．Salt Lake City has enthusiastic public support for 2034 GamesC．Legacy of the 2002 Games continues to exist in Salt Lake CityD．Cities compete for honour of staging 2034 Winter Olympic GamesEvery six days, students at Hite Elementary School get an extra 50 minutes of math-focused instruction. They play simple math games and count aloud to learn number recognition — it’s all done in Chinese.Principal Tim Hagan said Chinese language instruction enhances the school’s existing Singapore Math curriculum (课程), which attributes (归因) the math skill gap between Chinese — and English-speaking students to language differences and the way students understand numbers.The National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) conducts a study every four years to compare the math ability of students from more than 50 countries. For the past 20 years, students in Chinese-speaking countries have routinely outperformed those in English-speaking countries. “One of the reasons that Chinese students have done well in math is their language itself automatically breaks apart numbers into tens and ones,” said Hite Chinese teacher Emily Smith. “We’re having to teach kids to do that because our language doesn’t do it automatically.”For the 2022-23 school year, Hite provided $60,000 school-based funds to purchase and follow the Singapore Math curriculum, which math teachers taught in English. Students learned to count the “say ten way” — where “eleven” became “ten one” and twelve became “ten two”.Offering Chinese language instruction is just taking it one step further, Smith said. In Chinese, the “say ten way” is how numbers are naturally learned and spoken, she explained, adding that saying “twenty” in Chinese is like saying “two ten”.Hagan called the Chinese system more efficient than English in getting students to visualize, understand and calculate numbers. He has already seen improvement. Standardized test scores released earlier this month revealed the school’s “greatest increase in performance was in kids who have trouble in math”.Students also responded positively to Chinese instruction. Fourth-grade student Anna Kersting, 9, said she felt learning numbers in Chinese was easy. “You use all the same numbers from one to 99.” she said.9．What has the NCES study found?A．Chinese-speaking students excel in math.B．English students have made great progress in math.C．Breaking numbers apart is helpful for learning math.D．Students’ language ability determines their math ability.10．What did Smith say about the “say ten way”?A．It involves complex math concepts.B．It confuses English-speaking students.C．It was influenced by a Singapore math teacher.D．It is the natural way of saying numbers in Chinese.11．Which word best describes the impact of Chinese instruction?A．Many-sided.B．Short-lived.C．Identifiable.D．Unpredictable. 12．What can be the best title for the text?A．Innovative approaches to learning mathB．A comparison of math education in different countriesC．Chinese teachers bring the art of math to English schoolsD．Hite classes connect Chinese and math2-hour Scooter Rental in Niagara FallsIf you want to avoid the queues (队列) and crowded areas of visitors, this activity is for you.

2021-2022年高二上学期第一次(10月)月考英语试题含答案
2021年高二上学期第一次（10月）月考英语试题含答案第二部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)I was in a shopping mall recently, and I decided to go and get a cup of tea. As I was making my way to the coffee shop, I noticed an old gentleman rather poorly dressed sitting on a bench nearby. I knew from the first sight that he was in need of some kind of help. He had a little lunch in front of him and was wholeheartedly enjoying it.There was a young man in front of me in the line also waiting to be served. The young man handed the servant a twenty-dollar bill and asked for an orange juice as well as a favor. The servant looked at the young man with a little surprise, not fully understanding him. The young man asked her to give the juice to the old gentleman eating his lunch outside on the bench. The young man also told her that he would be watching every second so that she would be pletely safe at all times. Later, there was a wonderful exchange (交换) between the waitress and the old man. I only wished I had taken a photo of the smiles on both of their faces.As I was thinking about this event later on, I wondered why the young man didn’t just perform this act of kindness himself. I thought he was hoping thatthis act of kindness might inspire others to do something for the old man as well. Thinking of the happy smiles on the old man’s face, I felt how worthwhile it is to help others.21. The underlined word “favor” in Para. 2 refers to .A. passing the young man a cup of orange juiceB. buying lunch for the old manC. giving the juice to the old manD. exchanging meals with the old man22. Which of the following can be used to describe the young man?A. Humorous and helpful.B. Generous and proud.C. Rich and friendly.D. Kind and considerate.23. In the author’s opinion, the young man asked the servant to take the juice to the old man so that .A. more people would be inspired to do good deedsB. he would bee famous for his good deedC. the old man could probably accept itD. he would bee a friend of the servantBThe Horn of Plenty is one of the largest natural health food stores withinthe Greater Hamilton area. We are big supporters of buying locally and we are here to tell you why it is so important for your family, the munity and the environment.The concept (概念) of buying locally is simple: buy food produced, grown, or raised as close to your home as possible. Not only will your food be fresher and tastier, but you are helping protect the environment and are supporting businesses within your munity and reducing pollution.Better for the environmentSustainability (持续性) and global warming are such hot topics at the moment, and many people want to do their bit to help support a healthier environment. Small action carried out by many people can make a big difference. Most materials in an average North American meal have traveled about 1,500 miles to get from farm to plate. To cut out a big part of this travel would greatly reduce not only pollution from transportation and r efrigeration but also customers’ expenses as well.Taste and nutritional contentLocally-grown fruits and vegetables are usually sold within 24 hours of being harvested. Because they are picked at the height of ripeness (成熟) and travel only a short distance to the market, their freshness, nutrition, and flavor arekept. Produce trucked in from far away may lose both taste and nutritional content.munity and home valuesWhen you buy direct from a farmer or buy locally-grown foods, you are engaging in a time-honored tradition between a grower and an eater. You also help keep dollars within your munity.24. It can be inferred from the third paragraph that .A. global warming is the most serious problem nowB. the increased cost of transporting food is passed on to the customersC. North American food is rich in various kinds of materialsD. most people support buying locally25. Locally-grown fruits and vegetables taste good mostly because .A. they are sent to the market at a high speedB. they are not polluted by chemical fertilizerC. they can be harvested at any timeD. they are picked when they are fully grown26. According to the author, when you buy locally-grown foods .A. you can see how fruits and vegetables growB. you will bee much healthier and prettierC. you will contribute to protecting the environmentD. you are making money from your munity27. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. The benefits of buying locally.B. The popularity of the Horn of Plenty.C. The importance of protecting the environment.D. The way to keep your food tasty and healthy.CPeople often say that money talks. They mean that a person with a lot of money can say how he or she wants things done. But it is not easy to earn enough money to gain this kind of power.Sometimes people in business feel businesses are as dangerous as wild animals in a jungle. They have to be careful if they are to survive the jungle out there. They must not be led into making bogus investments (投资). Bogus means something that is not real. It was said that the word came from a criminal (罪犯) whose name was Borghese. Borghese wrote checks to people although he didn’t have money. After he wrote the checks, he would disappear. So, people who were paid with his checks received nothing.People trying to earn money also must be aware of being ripped off. A personwho is ripped off has had something stolen, or at least has been treated unfairly. To keep from getting ripped off in business, people had better try to earn money step by step instead of getting rich quickly.To be successful, a person in business works hard and tries to get down to brass tacks. For example, a salesman may talk about his product without saying the price. You get down to brass tacks when you say, “It sounds good, but how much does it cost?” Word experts thought the expression came from sailors on ships. They cleaned the bottom of a boat. After they finished, they were down to the brass tacks, the copper pieces that held the boat together. So, if we get down to brass tacks, we can avoid rip-offs and bogus ways of earning money.28. What would happen to those people who make bogus investments?A. They would lose a lot of money.B. They would disappear after that.C. They would receive nothing but checks.D. They were more likely to be punished by law.29. The best way to avoid being ripped off in business is to .A. work as hard as possibleB. ask for checks in advanceC. avoid being wealthy eagerlyD. earn as more money as you can30. When doing business, people prefer to get down to brass tacks to .A. keep themselves from being fooledB. develop more ways of earning moneyC. reduce their production costsD. get in touch with more partners31. In which part of a newspaper can we find this passage?A. News and business.B. The history of language.C. Words and their stories.D. Funny new expressions.DMore often than not, people will look at the phone screen to check for new messages or have a quick look at Facebook. Researchers have now found why we often feel such a strong need to look at our phones. Using the mobile phone, they say, is contagious (蔓延的).A team says people are twice as likely to pull out their phones to check their text messages or e-mails if they’re with someone that has just done the same. They also found that women were more likely to use their mobile phones than men. The team watched students in dining halls and coffee shops around the college, observing pairs of college students sitting at tables for as long as 20 minutes and recording their cellphone use. “What we found most interesting was just how often people were using their mobile phones,” Dr. Daniel Kruger, the study’s co-author, said. “Every person we studi ed used his or her phoneat least once while one woman was on hers about half of the time. People saw others checking their ining messages and began to check their own.”“Cellphones create another choice for one’s attention and may both support and disagre e with live social activities,” the researchers wrote. Kruger believed this could be explained by the effects of social inclusion (包含) and exclusion (排除). If one person in a pair starts a conversation through his phone, the other one may feel excluded and then feel the need to get in touch with others so as not to feel left out.The researchers note that they might not get the same result in a study of different people—for example, older adults, who may not have a habit of using cellphones so often.32. From the study we can learn that .A. people can affect each other in using mobile phonesB. using mobile phones has nothing to do with social activitiesC. men are more likely to be affected by others’ using mobile phonesD. the sound of mobile phones makes using mobile phones contagious33. If old adults are studied, the researchers .A. will find that old adults don’t like to use mobile phonesB. will find that mobile phones are harmful to healthC. will no longer like using mobile phonesD. may reach a different result34. Which can best describe the author’s attitude towards using mobile phones?A. Supportive.B. Objective.C. Indifferent.D. Opposed.35. Which can be the best title for the passage?A. How to use mobile phones correctlyB. Why college students like mobile phonesC. Relation between mobile phones and people’s hobbiesD. Something interesting about the habit of using mobile phones第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
重庆市巴蜀中学校2023-2024学年高二上学期10月月考英语试题
重庆市巴蜀中学校2023-2024学年高二上学期10月月考英语试题学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解With the rise of social media and the increasing number of online platforms, businesses have too many options when it comes to promoting their products or services. We will compare some of the top online advertising platforms and help you determine which one is right for you.Google Ads: The Powerhouse of Online AdvertisingWhen it comes to online advertising, Google Ads is undoubtedly the most powerful and widely used platform with its mighty targeting options. Businesses can target specific keywords, demographics (人口统计), locations, and even custom audiences based on their website visitors or customer lists. This level of precision ensures precise ads reaching. Facebook Ads: Targeting Y our Audience with AccuracyFacebook Ads offers businesses various ad formats such as image ads, video ads, audio-visual ads, and more to engage with their target audience effectively. One significant advantage Facebook Ads have over other platforms is its advanced targeting abilities. With Facebook’s large user data, businesses can target their ads based on demographics, interests, behaviors, and even life events. This level of accuracy allows you to tailor your ads to specific audience divisions and increase the chances of transformation.LinkedIn Ads: Connecting with ProfessionalsIf your business operates in the B2B space or targets professionals and decision-makers, LinkedIn Ads is an excellent platform to consider. One of the key advantages of using LinkedIn Ads is its professional targeting options, including job titles, industries, company size, and even specific companies. This high level of precision ensures that your ads are viewed by related professionals who are more likely to be interested in your products or services.YouTube Ads: Engaging Your Audience through VideoVideo advertising has gained significant popularity in recent years due to its ability to draw users’ attention effectively. One major advantage of YouTube Ads is its widespread reach. With over 2 billion logged-in monthly users spending an average of 40 minutes on theplatform, YouTube offers advertisers access to a large global audience.1．What key feature sets Facebook Ads apart from other platforms?A．Comprehensive user data.B．Advanced targeting capabilities.C．Professional targeting options.D．Widespread audience reach.2．Which platform would you choose if you are targeting professionals?A．LinkedIn Ads.B．YouTube Ads.C．Google Ads.D．Facebook Ads.3．What is the purpose of the passage.A．To promote advertising websites to schools.B．To introduce different advertising companies.C．To help businesses select advertising platforms.D．To analyze the pros and cons of online advertising.My birth was a little more dramatic than the standard. Within minutes of coming out, I was taken away into another room while doctors gave my parents the difficult news: I was born missing my left hand. I’m sure it was quite shocking for them.Indeed, that announcement of my limb (肢体) difference might have been a disaster if it hadn’t been for what happened next. I’m told that a nurse wrapped me up, took me back into the room, placed me in my mother’s arms and instructed. “You will take her home. You will raise her like you would any baby girl.”My parents took that instruction seriously. I played sports, acted in theater, excelled in school, participated in student government and had playdates with friends. As kids do, I quickly learned to adapt, working around the missing hand. One of my earliest memories is my father trying to teach me to tie my shoes. His two-handed method wouldn’t work for me, so I figured out a way to do it with one hand.However, that fact that I was different hit me hard when was 13, an age of great self-conscious and the need to fit in. I remember getting on the school bus and one of the kids stared just a little too long at my left arm. The staring unnerved me in a way it never had before, and I felt a sudden urge to hide my hand, so I quickly slipped it into my pocket. I told myself that I’d just hide it that one day, while I was trying to make friends. But one day ofhiding turned into a week, which turned into a month, which became years.After a two-decade struggle, I accidentally joined the Lucky Fin Project, where I met a group of people with limb difference. Among them, I felt no need to hide anymore. When I wasn’t so focused on hiding myself, I was able to look around, learning to appreciate the world and love myself.4．What prevented the author’s limb difference from becoming a disaster?A．The life lessons her teachers gave her.B．The determination of the author herself.C．The talents she showed in school activities.D．The nurse’s instruction after her birth in hospital.5．Why does the author mention learning to tie shoes in Paragraph 3?A．To memorize the love and care from her father.B．To recall a beautiful childhood memory.C．To show her adaptability to daily tasks.D．To introduce an academic success.6．What led to the author’s hiding of her hand for years?A．The self-consciousness of her disability.B．The stare from a kid on the school bus.C．The experiences of being ignored.D．The desire to please her friends.7．What can be a suitable title for this passage?A．Time Waits for No One.B．There’s Nothing to Hide.C．One Hand Equals Two.D．It’s All About Family.The benefits of gratitude have long been championed in religious and philosophical thinking. In recent years, the science has been catching up: it shows that people who feel most grateful generally get a psychological boost as a result. They also have greater life satisfaction, fewer visits to the doctor and better sleep. This has led to gratitude becoming part of our daily routine, starting a trend of gratitude journals, in which you record things you are thankful for, and meditation practices in which you focus thoughts on them. However, the benefits ofthat shows turning our inner gratitude into action can make our lives even better.For instance, a simple thank you can build relationships, even with strangers. Take people who have received a note of thanks for something they have done from a peer they don’t know. They are more likely to share their contact details with that person in an attempt to continue the relationship than people who receive a note that doesn’t contain thanks. A simple thank you seems to signal interpersonal warmth.Expressing gratitude to a friend also changes your view of that relationship, making it feel stronger. In 2010, Nathaniel Lambert, at Florida State University, and his colleagues found that people who simply thought grateful thoughts about a friend, or even took part in positive interactions with them, didn’t experience the same effects.But the benefits go further than just strengthening social bonds, they can have an impact on health, too. A study of more than 200 nurses working in two Italian hospitals found that gratitude expressed by patients could protect nurses from burnout. That was especially so in the emergency room, where personal interactions with patients are typically shorter and less rewarding. This positive feedback from patients reduced feelings of exhaustion among nurses, says Mara Martini at the University of Turin, who carried out the work.8．What do the underline words “stacking up” in paragraph 1 mean?A．disappearing B．approaching.C．ringing.D．increasing. 9．Which of the following is a benefit of expressing gratitude?A．Building stronger relationshipsB．Sleeping well during the night.C．Getting a psychological boost.D．Having attractive body shapes.10．What does the study by Mara Martini indicate?A．Nurses should require positive feedback from patients.B．Patients should speak out their appreciation to nurses.C．Doctors should improve their interpersonal skillsD．Hospitals should protect nurses from burnout.11．What message does the text want to convey?A．Friendship is worth sparing every effort.B．Gratitude journals work for people who act.C．Positive feedback helps improve health serviceD．Thankfulness in action has unexpected benefits.In films and TV shows, police investigators dust crime scenes for fingerprints to catch criminals. Now, conservationists (环保主义者) are using a similar method to tackle the illegal overfishing of sharks and rays.Overfishing is when too many of a particular type of fish are caught, putting that species in danger. Many sharks and rays are killed because of a high demand-and a high price-for their fins(鱼鳍). In some countries, the fins are used as an ingredient in shark fin soup, which some people believe can cure certain illnesses.About 100 species of sharks and rays are protected by the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora(CITES), an agreement between 184 countries to limit sales of wildlife that may be at the risk of dying out. CITES has teams of people who visit ports and fish factories to look for evidence of protected species being illegally caught and sold. The idea is to punish those responsible and stop it from happening, but finding evidence is difficult. If a fish is already cut up and ready for sale, it’s hard to tell which species it was. Often, fish are sold before inspectors arrive.Scientists have come up with a process that analyzes “fish dust”-tiny traces of fish that get left on the floor at ports and factories, even after the fish are no longer there. Using a process called metabarcoding(宏条形码技术), they examine the chemical that carries all the information about a living thing’s body and characteristics in the dust and can tell if it is from a protected species.The scientists tested the method in Indonesia, where many sharks and rays are caught and sold. They studied dust from seven sites and found evidence of 61 species of sharks and rays. More than 80% of them were CITES-protected species. Dr. Andhika Prasetyo, the scientist who led the research, hopes the new method will be helpful in protecting endangered sea life.12．Why is dusting crime scenes mentioned in paragraph 1?A．To discuss overfishing in a broader context.B．To introduce the initial purpose of the passage.C．To bring forth something new with the familiar.D．To show the difference between two professions.13．What is paragraph 3 of the text mainly about?A．The risk in saving wildlife and the opportunity to seize.B．The mission of CITES and the trouble inspectors confront.C．The number of endangered species and the way to save them.D．The agreement made by countries and the responsibility each carries.14．How does the metabarcoding process work?A．It scans the body of a fish to confirm its killer.B．It guides the investigators to the remains of a fish.C．It turns a fish into the dust and test its characteristics.D．It identifies a fish by studying the chemical in the dust.15．What does the test in Indonesia indicate?A．The evidence collected belong to over 61 species.B．Scientists in Indonesia will carry out further studiesC．The dusting method is promising in protecting sea life.D．More than 80% of sharks and rays have been in danger.二、七选五Is walking good exercise?For exercise to really count, it has to be hard or complicated, or leave you totally wiped out with muscle pain for days-right? Not at all! While high-intensity activity certainly has its place, so does the most basic, accessible form of exercise: walking. 16Walking is great for all exercise levels.One of the biggest reasons walking is so popular is because it’s a low-impact exercise. It doesn’t put nearly as much pressure on the joints(关节)as running or any sort of jumping or hopping movement. 17 It’s a gentle way to get the blood flowing and circulate oxygen and nutrients(营养物质)to muscles.Starting is easy.For people just getting started with fitness, walking is a wonderful form of aerobic exercise(有氧运动). 18 Just get up and walk, and you’ll get your heart and lungs working. Unlike other forms of cardio-like running, biking, dance workouts, or boxing-walking isn’t frightening, and it doesn’t require lessons or special equipment.19Enhanced blood flow is going to improve recovery and help ease muscle pain. Althoughit is not going to completely heal it, it can help reduce it and accelerate the muscle repair process. 20 Chemicals that are released in the body when our cells create and use energy to power through a tough workout may further boost recovery.A．Not just for beginners.B．Excellent for recovery.C．The risk of injury is relatively low.D．Walking can also help the body sweep away waste products.E．Walking is a form of mental health treatment for many peopleF．You don’t need any earlier or special knowledge or training to start.G．Recently, it’s become an even more vital physical activity for many people.三、完形填空Once upon a time, in a quiet village, there lived a teenager named Alex.

“I never expected that I would be so busy. Why can’t there be 25 hours in a day?” complained Liu Ran in Hong Kong as mid-term exams were going on.The 18-year-old was Shandong Province’s top scorer in this year’s college entrance examination. After graduating from Tai’an No.1 High School, she chose the Chinese University of Hong Kong(香港中文大学) ， although both Peking University and Tsinghua University promised her a place.“I want to experience a more international school and social life in Hong Kong. I’m majoring in journalism, so Hong Kong will surely help widen my horizons,” Liu said.It is two months since Liu first set foot on Hong Kong. She missed home a lot at the beginning, because of the food and language problems.“The canteen offers mostly Western or Guangdong food, but it’s convenient to cook for ourselves in our dorm if we like. People speak Cantonese and almost all classes are in English,” Liu explained.Her English and Cantonese are now both improving, but she still needs more time to adapt to the new environment.“I’m happy that I made the right decision to study here.

As we were leaving, we found that only minutes earlier an elderly woman had fallen over at the entrance and had hit her head on the concrete. Her husband was with her, but there was blood everywhere and the woman was embarrassed and clearly in shock.Walking towards the scene, Tenyson became very upset about what had happened to the couple. He said to me, "Mum, it's not much fun falling over in front of everyone."At the front of the supermarket a charity（慈善）group had set up a stand selling cooked sausages and flowers to raise funds. Tenyson suggested that we should buy the lady a flower. "It will make her feel better," he said. I was amazed that he'd come up with such a sweet idea. So we went over to the flower seller and asked her if we could buy a flower for the lady to cheer her up. "Just take it," she replied. "I can't take your money for such a wonderful gesture."By now paramedics（救援人员）had arrived, and were attending the injured woman. As we walked up to her, my son became intimidated by all the blood and medical equipment. He said he was just too scared to go up to her.Instead I gave the flower to the woman's husband and told him, "My son was very upset for your wife and wanted to give her this flower to make her feel better."At that, the old man started crying and said, "Thank you so much, you have a wonderful son. Happy Mother's Day to you."The man then bent down and gave his wife the flower, telling her who it was from. Though badly hurt and shaken, the old lady looked up at Tenyson with love in her eyes and gave him a little smile.（1）What does the author intend to tell us?A.One can never be too careful.B.Actions speak louder than words.C.Love begins with a little smile.D.A small act of kindness brings a great joy.（2）Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.The elderly woman was knocked down by Tenyson.B.Tenyson's idea of buying a flower gained his mother's support.C.Tenyson's care for the elderly woman puzzled the flower seller.D.The elderly woman was moved to tears by Tenyson's gesture.（3）The underlined word "intimidated" in the fourth paragraph probably means "______".A.astonishedB.struckC.frightenedD.excited（4）What would be the best title for the passage?A.Flower's PowerB.Mother's DayC.An Accidental InjuryD.An Embarrassing Moment3. Hey, ladies! It's summer again and it's time for a new you! No more make﹣up, no more pretending! Yes, that's right! It's time to stop making ourselves beautiful for the camera, and start posting confident pictures without all the make﹣up and extra tricks we add onto ourselves in the hope of appearing more attractive and beautiful． Because believe it or not, we already are!After we wash our face and go to bed, it is not so perfect． You know it the face we should confidently be showing to the world! Who cares if you have pimples（面痕）or your eyes look small, or if you have crow's feet? Guess what? Those are actually what make you such a beautifully grown woman． And any person who doesn't think so is just not as strong as you．Nowadays we are so prone to do anything and everything to make us look as young and perfect as possible． Yet the troth is, by doing this, we are actually making our tree skin get worse and badly affected by all the junk we put on． We are making ourselves believe that by changing our appearance we will be more accepted and seem more attractive to other people． And yet, our final goal is to find that without all of the make﹣up． What kind of twisted（扭曲的）game are we really playing with ourselves?So I would like to make a suggestion for all women out there to give yourself a break at least this summer． Take a couple of pictures without all of that make﹣up on． You don't need it every single day, especially not this hot summer! You'll be surprised that the more confident you are about showing the real side of you, the more attractive you will be to everyone else．Yes, the saying, "Beauty comes from within" is an old one, definitely still holds some troth today． So be brave, carefree, and make﹣up free!

It is generally believed that people act the way they do because of their personalities and attitudes．They recycle their garbage because they care about the environment．They pay $5 for a caramel brulee latte because they like expensive coffee drinks．It's undeniable that behavior comes from our inner character, but in many instances we also draw inferences about who we are, as suggested by the social psychologist Daryl Bern．By observing our own behavior, we can be strangers to ourselves．If we knew our own minds, why would we need to guess what our preferences are from our behavior? If our minds were an open book, we would know exactly how much we care about the environment or like lattes．Actually, we often need to look to our behavior to figure out who we are．Moreover, we don't just use our behavior to learn about our particular types of character ﹣we infer characters that weren't there before．Our behavior is often shaped by little pressures around us, which we fail to recognize．Maybe we recycle because our wives and neighbors would disapprove if we didn't．Maybe we buy lattes in order to impress the people around us．We should not mistakenly believe that we always behave as a result of some inner character．Whatever pressures there can be or inferences one can make, people become what they do, though it may not be in ________ with their true desires．Therefore, we should all bear in mind Kurt Vonnegut's advice: "We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be．"（1）According to the text，personalities and attitudes________．A.result from one's habitsB.affect one's surroundingsC.reflect one's tasteD.determine one's behavior．（2）Which of the following would Daryl Bern most probably agree with？________A.The return of a wallet can indicate one's honesty．B.A kind person will offer his seat to senior citizens．C.One recycles plastics to reduce the carbon footprints．D.One buys latte due to his deep affection for coffee．．（3）Which of the following best explains "compliance" underlined in Paragraph 4？________A.Harmony．B.Challenge．C.Strength．D.Memory．．（4）What does the author mainly discuss in the text？________A.Preferences and habits．B.Behavior and personalities．C.Attitudes and preferences．D.Personalities and attitudes．二、七选五)5. 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
