Broken Wing

Maybe you've heard the saying, "A bird with a broken wing will never fly as high." I'm sure that Ware was made to feel this way almost every day in school.

By high school, Ware was the most celebrated troublemaker in his town. He wasn't very talkative, didn't answer questions and got into lots of fights. He had failed in almost every class. I met Ware for the first time at a weekend training program, which was designed to have students become more involved in their communities. Ware was one of 405 students who signed up for the program. When I showed up to lead them, the community leaders gave me this overview of the attending students: "We have different kinds of students today, from the student body president to T. J. Ware, the boy with the longest arrest record in the history of town." Somehow, I knew that I wasn't the first to hear about Ware's dark side as the first words of introduction.

At the start of the program, Ware was literally standing outside the circle of students, against the back wall. He didn't readily join the discussion groups and seemed to have little to say. But slowly, the interactive games drew him in. The ice really melted when the groups started building a list of positive and negative things that had occurred at school that year. Ware had some definite thoughts on those situations. The other students in Ware's group welcomed this comments. All of a sudden Ware felt like a part of the group. And before long he was being treated like a leader. He was saying things that made a lot of sense, and everyone was listening. Ware was a smart guy and had some great ideas. The next day, Ware was very active in all the sessions. By the end of the program, he had joined the Homeless Project team. He knew something about poverty, hunger and hopelessness. Impressed with his passionate concern and ideas, the other students on the team elected Ware chairman of the team.

Two weeks later, Ware led the team to collect food for needy families. In just two hours they collected 2, 854 cans of food, which could support the poor families in the area for 75 days. The local newspaper covered the event with a full-page article the next day. That newspaper story and Ware's picture were posted on the main bulletin board at school. Every day he was reminded about what he did. He was being acknowledged as leadership material. Then Ware started showing up at school every day and answered questions from teachers for the first time.

Ware's story reminds us that a bird with a broken wing only needs mending, But once it has healed, it can fly higher than the rest.

(1) What was the weekend training program intended to do?

A. To encourage the students to improve themselves.

B. To motivate the students to learn better and more.

(2) T. J. Ware was treated like a leader because.

A. he built a list of positive and negative things in school life

B. he was very active in all the sessions of the program

C. he was full of wisdom

D. what he said was reasonable and convincing

(3) What became of T. J. Ware after they collected food for poor families?

A. He turned into a public figure.

B. He became the chairman of the team.

C. He was interviewed by the local newspaper.

D. He was pleased with what he had achieved.

(4) Why was T. J. Ware compared to a bird with a broken wing?

A. He had been injured in an accident.

B. He remained an outsider of the community.

C. He had done something illegal and damaged his reputation.

D. He was a failure in all the coursed while studying in high school.

Traffic statistics paint a gloomy picture. To help solve their traffic problems, some rapidly growing U.S. cities have simply built more roads. But traffic experts say building more roads is a quick-fix solution that will not solve the traffic problem in the long run. Rising land costs, increasing concern over social and environmental disruptions caused by road building, and the chances that more roads can only lead to more cars and traffic are powerful factors bearing down on a 1950s-style constructions program.

The goal of smart-highway technology is to make traffic systems work at optimum efficiency(最佳效率)by treating the road and the vehicles traveling on them as an integral transportation system. Advocates of this advanced technology say electronic detection systems, closed-circuit television radio communication, variable message signing, and other smart-highway technology can now be used at a reasonable cost to improve communication between drivers and the people who monitor traffic.

Pathfinder, a smart-highway project in California in which a 14-mile stretch of the freeway makes up what is called a "smart corridor", is being instrumented with buried loops in the pavement, Closed-circuit television cameras survey the flow of traffic, while communications linked to properly equipped automobiles advise motorists of the least crowded routes or detours.

Not all traffic experts, however, look to smart-highway technology as the ultimate solution to serious traffic jam. Some say the high-teach approach is limited and can only offer temporary solutions to a serious problem.

"Electronics on the highway addresses just one aspect of the problem: how to regulate traffic more efficiently", explains Michael Renner, senior researcher at the World-watch Institute. "It doesn't deal with the central problem of too many cars for roads that can't be built fast enough. It sends people the wrong message. They start thinking 'Yes, there used to be a traffic jam problem, but that's been solved now because we have an advanced high-teach system in place.' "Barson agrees and adds, "Smart highways are just one of the tools that we will use to deal with our traffic problems. It's not the solution itself, just part of the package. There are different strategies. "

Other traffic problem-solve options being studied and experimented with include car pooling, rapid mass transit systems, staggered or flexible work hours, and road pricing, a system by which motorists pay a certain amount for the time they use a highway.

It seems that we need a new, major approach to deal with the traffic problems of the next 20 years. There has to be a big change.

(1) The underlined word "quick-fix" in para. I is the closest in meaning to.

A. ideal

B. temporary

C. ready

D. efficient

(2) Which of the following is the advantage of Pathfinder?

A. It can reduce travel cost.

B. It can solve all the traffic problems.

C. The equipment on it can provide real-time traffic information for motorists.

D. The equipment on it has efficiently controlled the traffic flow.

(3) According to Barson,.

A. rapid mass transit systems will become a must

B. smart-highway technology is not the final

C. flexible work hours must be experimented

D. road pricing will be a main solution

(4) What is the best title for the passage?

A. Smart Highway Project

B. A New Technology for Traffic System

C. Future Highway Is Taking Off

D. Highways Get Smart

As little children, most of us were taught the virtue of honesty from fairy talks and other stories. The story of Pinocchio, who begins life as a puppet(木偶)teaches us the importance of telling the truth. In the story of young George Washington, who lies about cutting down the cherry tree, we learn that he earns his father's praise only when he admits what he has done. Even though we know that "honesty is the best policy, " why do we often lie in our everyday life? The fact is that we lie for many reasons.

We sometimes lie to minimize our errors and mistakes. For example, some students might lie to their teachers about unfinished homework. They might say that they left the work at home when, in fact, they didn't even do the work. These students don't want to be irresponsible, so they make up a lie to save face.

Another reason we lie is to get out of situations we don't want to be in. If we just don't want to attend the dorm meeting early on Saturday morning, we might give this excuse: "be been fighting off a cold all week, and I need to sleep on Saturday morning. "We lie because we believe that telling the truth will cause problems. When we don't know how to say no, we often use lies to avoid difficulties.

However, lies are not always negative; as a matter of fact, two kinds of lies can yield positive results. The first is commonly referred to as a "white lie". We tell white lies when we don't want to hurt other people's feelings. For example, if a good friend shows up with an unflattering haircut, we could be truthful and say, "That haircut is awful. It doesn't suit you at all!" Instead, we are more likely to lie and say, "I like your haircut. It looks good on you, " and spare our friend's feelings. The second kind of positive lie is the "protective lie". This one can help us get out of or avoid dangerous situations. Parents often teach their children to use this kind of lie. For example, parents tell their children not to say that they are home alone if they receive phone calls from strangers. In this situation, lying can prevent harm or disaster.

People lie for many reasons, both good and bad. However, before we resort to lying to cover up mistakes or to avoid unpleasant situations, perhaps we should rethink our motives for lying.

(1) What is mainly discussed in this passage?

A. The importance of telling the truth.

B. Positive and negative results produced by lies.

C. The reasons or motives for telling lies.

D. The strategies of stopping telling lies.

(2) According to the passage,can be called a "white lie".

A. a lie told by a student to his teacher about unfinished homework

B. a lie told by someone who wants to avoid hurting others

C. a lie told by a child to avoid an unfavorable situation

D. a lie told by a boy who cried wolf

(3) Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?

A. Telling the truth may cause problems on some occasions.

B. People tell lies in order to maintain their friendship.

C. "Protective lies"can help us get out of dangerous situations.

D. Lies do not always produce negative results.

(4) Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?

I: Introduction P: Point Sp: Sub-point(次要点) C: Conclusion

A.

B.

C.

D.

ADDICTED TO SMARTPHONE?

Smartphones and other electronic devices are an important part of everyday life for most teens today.1One out of every two teens in the U.S. and Japan feel they are, according to a recent study by the University of Southern California's Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism. Their parents say that digital devices are a source of concern, anxiety and

conflict.

The study, "The New Normal-Parents, Teens and Digital Devices, " is based on an April 2017 survey of 1, 200 teens and parents.2It's also the first to compare those results to existing U.S. data from Common Sense Media about digital media use among families in North American.

Most parents of children ages 13-18 surveyed said they believe teens are addicted to mobile devices. Many of the adults said they also felt addicted to their own phones.

"Advances in digital media mobile devices are changing the way we engage not only with the world around us but also with the people who are the closest to us, " Willow Bay, the dean of USC Annenberg in Los Angels, said, "3To truly understand their impact on our relationships, we needed to dig deeper into the media habits and attitudes of parents and teens."

The study also looked at the potential benefits of device use. The trends uncovered in Japan often mirrored the results of two similar 2016 U.S Studies by Common Sense Media. The USC study found:

●In both countries, one out of every two teens felt addicted to their devices and the majority of parents agreed that their teens are addicted.

●4One un three U.S. families reported having an argument every day. More teens in the U.S. also felt that mobile device use has hurt their relationship with their parents. In Japan, more parents felt their family relationships have been hurt by mobile device use.

●When asked if their devices are a source of distraction, 72 percent of the American teens surveyed said they felt the need to immediately respond to texts, social-networking messages and other notifications5

●Compared to just 25 percent of Japanese parents, most American parents surveyed—88 percent —had an optimistic view of the benefits of technology in terms of helping their acquire new skills.

A. It's the first such study of teenagers and families in Japan, where 90 percent of parents and teens own smartphones.

B. These shifts are happening faster and more dramatically than any change in recent history.

C. Parents and teens often quarrel because of mobile device use.

D. 48 percent of Japanese teens said they did.

E. Digital devices were a greater source of conflict among teens and parents in the U.S. than in Japan.

F. They said that their attention is easily distracted.

G. But are teens addicted to their phones?

2018北京六区高三一模英语分类汇编--阅读理解C 【海淀一模】 C The Lifecycle of a T-shirt We all probably have a lot of T-shirts, but do you ever stop and think about the influence of a T-shirt on the planet? You’d probably be surprised to learn what's involved in the lifecycle of just one T-shirt. There are 5 major stages: material, production, shipping, use and disposal The material stage involves farming, irrigating, fertilizing, harvesting and ginning. While cotton is a natural fiber (纤维)and not as harmful to the environment as manmade fibers, it still takes a toll in the material and production stages. Commercial cotton farming uses a large amount of water, and the use of pesticides (杀虫剂)is widespread across the globe, especially in cotton farming. Studies have shown that farmers spend around $4.1 billion on pesticides annually, of which 25% was spent on cotton crops in the US. Once the cotton is grown and harvested, so begins the production stage: spinning, knitting, bleaching, dyeing, cutting, sewing, etc.——these processes also use a great deal of water and energy. Commercial dyes and bleaches are harmful pollutants and can eventually pollute groundwater. After the T-shirt is produced, it enters the transportation stage. This often involves overseas shipping. Take a look in your closet. Chances are that most of your cotton garments (衣服)are made in China or India. Garments can be shipped via plane, ship or truck…,all of which spill CO2 into the atmosphere. Calculations show that C02 emissions from light trucks alone amount to 1.15 pounds per mile. Once the T-shirt reaches the retail market, it is purchased. This stage may seem like the least environmentally damaging part. But consider the number of times you5ve washed and dried your favorite T-shirt. Washing machines are certainly becoming more efficient. However, the average American household does 400 loads of laundry per year, using about 40 gallons of water per load. Such excessive water use is combined with the large amount of energy used by dryers. The final stage of life is disposal. This releases harmful emissions, or involves a landfill where cotton takes years to break down. Current US records show that an estimated 15% of clothes and shoes are recycled, which means that consumers send a shocking 85% of these materials to landfills. We all need new clothes every once in a while, but let’s all try to keep in mind what goes into the production of clothing... It has a real impact on the planet. There are a lot of things you can do to help reduce your impact. Reuse and recycle clothes. If they5re too worn out to wear, cut them up and use them as cleaning rags. Donate them to charity or another organization that recycles textiles. When possible, make an effort to buy organic cotton. Turn down the thermostat on your washer, and line dry your clothes when the weather will allow it. 43. The underlined phrase “takes a toll” probably means “” A. wastes water B. takes a lot of time C. uses energy D. has a bad effect 44. We can learn from the passage that in the US, .

2018年北京市六区高三一模英语分类汇编--阅读理解D

2018北京六区高三一模英语分类汇编--阅读理解D 【海淀一模】 D Eudaimonia is an Ancient Greek word, particularly stressed by the philosophers Plato and Aristotle, which deserves far more attention than it has because it corrects the shortfalls (缺失)in one of the most central, but troubling words in our modem language: happiness. When we nowadays try to clearly express the purpose of our lives,it is the word “happiness”that we commonly turn to. We tell ourselves and others that the most important principle for our jobs, our relationships and the conduct of our day-to-day lives is the pursuit of happiness. It sounds like an innocent enough idea, but too much reliance on the term means that we frequently unfairly tend to quit or, at least, heavily question a great many challenging but worthwhile situations. The Ancient Greeks did not believe that the purpose of life was to be happy; they proposed that it was to achieve Eudaimonia, a word which has been best translated as “fulfilment”. What distinguishes happiness from fulfilment is pain. It is very possible to be fulfilled and—at the same time—under pressure, suffering physically or mentally, overburdened and, quite frequently, in an irritable (易怒的)mood. This is a slight psychological difference that is hard for the word “happiness” to capture, for it’s tricky to speak of being happy yet unhappy, or happy yet suffering. However, such a combination is readily accommodated within the respected and noble-sounding idea of Eudaimonia. The word encourages us to trust that many of life’s most worthwhile projects will sometimes be in conflict with contentment, and yet will be worth pursuing. Properly exploring our professional talents, managing a household, keeping a relationship going, creating a new business venture or engaging in politics... none of these goals are likely to leave us cheerful and grinning on a daily basis. They will, in fact, involve us in all manner of challenges that will deeply exhaust and weaken us, provoke (激怒)and wound us. And yet we will perhaps, at the end of our lives, still feel that the tasks were worth undertaking. Through them, we’ll have achieved something deeper and more interesting than happiness. With the word Eudaimonia in mind, we can stop imagining that we are aiming for a pain-free existence—and then blaming ourselves unfairly for being in a bad mood. We’ll know that we are trying to do something far more important than smile all the time: we're striving to do justice to our full human potential. 47. What do we know about “Eudaimonia” from the passage? A. It was first created by two Greek philosophers. B . It has received a lot of attention from the public. C. It still has some shortfalls that need to be corrected. D. It was regarded as the purpose of life in ancient Greece. 48. According to Paragraph 3, happiness . A. is the opposite of fulfillment B. is free from physical or mental pain C. stresses the psychological difference D. serves as a respected and noble life goal
