实战演练A （2015全国II）Your house may have an effect on your figure. Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. You can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of diet plan.Open the curtains and turn up the lights. Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating , for people are often less self-conscious (难为情) when they’re in poorly lit places-and so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesn’t have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites. In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors make us feel less hungry. So when it’s t ime to repaint, go blue.Don’t forget th e clock-or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories (卡路里) per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at least 30 minutes, And while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turn on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.Downsize the dishes. Big serving bowls and plates can easily make us fat. We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one ,total intake (摄入) jumps by 14 percent. And we’ll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide g lass than a tall, skinny glass.25. The text is especially helpful for those who care about_______.A. their home comfortsB. their body shapeC. house buyingD. healthy diets26. A home environment in blue can help people_________.A. digest food betterB. reduce food intakeC. burn more caloriesD. regain their appetites27. What are people advised to do at mealtimes?A. Eat quickly.B. Play fast music.C. Use smaller spoons.D. Turn down the lights.28. What can be a suitable title for the test?A. Is Your House Making You Fat?B. Ways of Serving DinnerC. Effects of Self-ConsciousnessD. Is Your Home Environment Relaxing?B （2015广东）When I was nine years old, I loved to go fishing with my dad. But the only thing that wasn’t very fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn’t catch anything. I usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why. He always answered, “Son, if you want to catch a fish, you have to think like a fish”, I remember being even more upset then because, “I’m not a fish!” I didn’t know how to think like a fish. Besides, I reasoned, how could what I think influence what a fish does As I got a little older I began to understand what my dad really meant. So, I read some books on fish. And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings. I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature. That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer. Besides, water is usually warmer in direct sunlight than in the shade. Yet, fish don’t have any eyelids (眼皮) and the sun huts their eyes… The more I understood fish, the more I became effective at finding and catching them.When I grew up and entered the business world, I remember hearing my first boss say, “We all need to think like sales people.” But it didn’t completely make sense. My dad never once s aid, “If you want to catch a fish you need to think like a fisherman.” What he said was, “You need to think like a fish.” Years later, with great efforts to promote long-term services to people much older and richer than me, I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like customers. It is not an easyjob. I will show you how in the following chapters.31. Why was the author upset in fishing trips when he was nine?A. He could not catch a fish.B. His father was not patient with him.C. His father did not teach him fishing.D. He could not influence a fish as his father did.32. What did the author’s father really mean?A. To read about fish.B. To learn fishing by oneself.C. To understand what fish think.D. To study fishing in many ways.33. According to the author, fish are most likely to be found _________.A. in deep water on sunny daysB. in deep water on cloudy daysC. in shallow water under sunlightD. in shallow water under waterside trees34. After entering the business world, the author found _________.A. it easy to think like a customerB. his fa ther’s fishing advice inspiringC. his firs t boss’s sales ideas reasonableD. it difficult to sell services to poor people35. This passage most likely comes from _________.A. a fishing guideB. a popular sales bookC. a novel on childhoodD. a millionaire’s biographyC （2015北京）The Boy Made It!One Sunday, Nicholas, a teenager, went skiing at Sugarloaf Mountain in Maine. In the early afternoon, when he was planning to go home, a fierce snowstorm swept into the area. Unable to see far, he accidentally turned off the path. Before he knew it, Nicholas was lost, all alone! He didn’t have food, water, a phone, or other supplies. He was getting colder by the minute.Nicholas had no idea where he was. He tried not to panic. He thought about all the survival shows he had watched on TV. It was time to put the tips he had learned touse.He decided to stop skiing. There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed put. The first thing he did was to find shelter form the freezing wind and snow. If he didn’t, his body temperature would get very low, which could quickly kill him.Using his skis, Nicholas built a snow cave. He gathered a huge mass of snow and dug out a hole in the middle. Then he piled branches on top of himself, like a blanket, to stay as warm as he could.By that evening, Nicholas was really hungry. He ate snow and drank water from a nearby stream so that his body wouldn’t lose too much water. Not knowing how much longer he could last, Nicholas did the only thing he could- he huddled (蜷缩) in his cave and slept.The next day, Nicholas went out to look for help, but he couldn’t find anyone. He followed his tracks and returned to the snow cave, because without shelter, he could die that night. On Tuesday, Nicholas went out to find help. He had walked for about a mile when a volunteer searcher found him. After two days stuck in the snow, Nicholas was saved.Nicholas might not have survived this snowstorm had it not been for TV. He had often watched Grylls’ survival show. Man vs. Wild. That’s where he learned the tips that saved his life, In each episode(一期节目)of Man vs. Wild, Grylls is abandoned in a wild area and has to find his way out.When Grylls heard about Nicholas’ amazing deeds, he was super impressed that Nicholas had made it since he knew better than anyone how hard Nicholas had to work to stay alive.56. What happened to Nicholas one Sunday afternoon?A. He got lost.B. He broke his skis.C. He hurt his eyesD. He caught a cold57. How did Nicholas keep himself warm?A. He found a shelter.B. He lighted some branches.C. He kept on skiing.D. He built a snow cave.58.

Nicholas left Grylls a very deep impression because he _______.A. did the right things in the dangerous situationB. watched Grylls’ TV program regularlyC. created some tips for survivalD. was very hard-workingD （2015福建）Papa, as a son of a dirt-poor farmer, left school early and went to work in a factory, for education was for the rich then. So, the world became his school. With great interest, he read everything he could lay his hands on, listened to the town elders and learned about the world beyond his tiny hometown. “There’s so much to learn,”he’d say. “Though we're born stupid, o nly the stupid remain that way.”He was determined that none of his children would be denied (拒绝) an education.Thus, Papa insisted that we learn at least one new thing each day. Though, as children, we thought this was crazy, it would never have occurred to us to deny Papa a request. And dinner time seemed perfect for sharing what we had learned. We would talk about the news of the day; no matter how insignificant, it was never taken lightly. Papa would listen carefully and was ready with some comment, always to the point. Then came the moment—the time to share the day’s new learning.Papa, at the head of the table, would push back his chair and pour a glass of red wine, ready to listen.“Felice,” he’d say, “tell me what you learned today.”“I learned that the population of Nepal is...”Silence.Papa was thinking about what was said, as if the salvation of the world would depend upon it. “The population of Nepal. Hmm. Well…”he’d say. “Get the map; let’s see where Nepal is.” And the whole family went on a search for Nepal.This same experience was repeated until each family member had a turn. Dinner ended only after we had a clear understanding of at least half a dozen such facts.As children, we thought very little about these educational wonders. Our family, however, was growing together, sharing experiences and participating in one another’s education. And by looking at us, listening to us, respecting our input, affirming our value, giving us a sense of dignity, Papa was unquestionably our most influential teacher.Later during my training as a future teacher, I studied with some of the most famous educators. They were imparting what Papa had known all along—the value of continual learning. His technique has served me well all my life. Not a single day has been wasted, though I can never tell when knowing the population of Nepal might prove useful.60. What do we know from the first paragraph?A. The author's father was born in a worker's family.B. Those born stupid could not change their life.C. The town elders wanted to learn about the world.D. The poor could hardly afford school education.61. The underlined word “it” in the second paragraph refers to “_______”.A. one new thingB. a requestC. the newsD. some comment62. It can be learned from the passage that the author_______.A. enjoyed talking about newsB. knew very well about NepalC. felt regret about those wasted daysD. appreciated his father’s educational technique63. What is the greatest value of “dinner time” to the author?A. Continual learning.B. Showing talents.C. Family get-together.D. Winning Papa’s approval.64. The author's father can be best described as_______.A. an educator expert at training future teachersB. a parent insistent on his children’s educationC. a participant willing to share his knowledgeD. a teacher strict about everything his students didE （2015浙江）From the very beginning of school we make books and reading a constant source of possible failure and public humiliation. When children are little we make them read aloud, before the teacher and other children, so that we can be sure they “know” all the words they are reading. This means that when they don't know a word, they are going to make a mistake, right in front of everyone. After having taught fifth-grade classes for four years, I decided to try at all costs to rid them of their fear and dislike of books, and to get them to read oftener and more adventurously.One day soon after school had started, I said to them, “Now I’m going to say something about reading that you have probably never heard a teacher say before. I would like you to read a lot of books this year, but I want you to read them only for pleasure. I am not going to ask you questions to find out whether you understand the books or not. If you understand enough of a book to enjoy it and want to go on reading it, that’s enough for me. Also I’m not going to ask you what words mean.”The children sat stunned and silent. Was this a teacher talking? One girl, who had just come to us from a school where she had had a very hard time, looked at me steadily for a long time after I had finished. Then, still looking at me, she said slowly and seriously, “Mr Holt, do you really mean that?” I said just as seriously, “I mean every word of it.”During the spring she really astonished me. One day, she was reading at her desk. From a glimpse of the illustrations I thought I knew what the book was. I said to myself, “It can’t be,” and went to take a closer look. Sure enough, she was reading Moby Dick, in edition with woodcuts. I said, “Don’t you find parts of it rather heavy going?” She answered, “Oh, sure, but I just skip over those parts and go on to the next good part.”This is exactly what reading should be and in school so seldom is—an exciting, joyous adventure. Find something, dive into it, take the good parts, skip the bad parts,get what you can out of it, go on to something else. How different is our mean-spirited, picky insistence that every child get every last little scrap of “understanding” that can be dug out of a book.41. According to the passage, children’s fear and dislike of books may result from ______.A. reading little and thinking littleB. reading often and adventurouslyC. being made to read too muchD. being made to read aloud before others42. The teacher told his students to read .A. for enjoymentB. for knowledgeC. for a larger vocabularyD. for higher scores in exams43. Upon hearing the teacher's talk, the children probably felt that_______.A. it sounded stupidB. it was not surprising at allC. it sounded too good to be trueD. it was no different from other teachers' talk44. Which of the following statements about the girl is TRUE according to the passage?A. She skipped over those easy parts while reading.B. She had a hard time finishing the required reading tasks.C. She learned to appreciate some parts of the difficult books.D. She turned out to be a top student after coming to this school.45. From the teacher's point of view,_______.A. children cannot tell good parts from bad parts while readingB. children should be left to decide what to read and how to readC. reading is never a pleasant and inspiring experience in schoolD. reading involves understanding every little piece of information推理判断实战演练答案(A)BC (B)DD (C) A (D)DDAB (E)DC。

Florence Chadwick saw nothing but a solid wall of fog. Her body was numb. She had been swimming for nearly sixteen hours. Already she was the first woman to swim the English Channel in both directions. Now at the age of 34, her goal was to become the first woman to swim from Catalina to the California coast.On that fourth of July morning 1952, the sea was like an ice bath and the fog was so dense. She could hardly see her support boats. Sharks cruised toward her figure, only to be driven away by rifle shots. Against the frigid grip of the sea, she struggled on, hour after hour, while millions watched on national television.Alongside Florence in one of the boats, her mother and here trainer offered encouragement. They told her it wasn‘t much farther. But all she could see was fog. They urged her not to quit. She never had… until then. With only a half mile t o go, she asked to be pulled out.☆What does ―she never had…‖in the third paragraph mean?A. She had never been so desperate.B. She had never thought of giving it up.C. She had never seen such thick fog.D. She had never swum across the strait before.例2：Decision-thinking is not unlike poker--- it often matters not only what you think , but also what others think you think and what you think they think you think . The mental process（过程）is similar . Naturally , this card game has often been of considerable interest to people who are , by any standards , good thinkers .The great mathematician John von Neumann was one of the founders of game theory . In particular , he showed that all games fall into two classes ; there are what he called games of ‗perfect information‘, games like c hess where the players can't hide anything or play tricks ; they don't win by chance , but by means of logic and skills . Then there are games of ‗imperfect information‘, like poker, in which it is impossible to know in advance that one course of action is better than another.One mistaken idea about business is that it can be treated as a game of perfect information. Quite the reverse, business, politics, life itself are games which we must normally play with very imperfect information. Business decisions are often made with many unknown and unknowable factors（因素）, which would ever puzzle best poker players . But few business people find it comfortable to admit that they are taking a chance , and many still prefer to believe that they are playing chess , not poker.☆An important factor in a game of imperfect information is _______.A. rulesB. luckC. timeD. ideas（二）推测文章的观点或结论例3：Do you always understand the directions on a bottle of medicine? Do you know what is meant by ―Take only as directed?‖ Read the following directions and see if you understand them. ―To reduce pain, take two tablets（药片）with water, followed by one tablet every eight hours, as required. For night-time and early morning relief （缓解疼痛）take two tablets at bedtime. Do not take more than six tablets in twenty-four hours.For children six to twelve years old, give half the amount （量）. For children under six years old, ask your doctor's advice. Reduce the amount if you suffer from restlessness or sleeplessness after taking the medicine.‖☆It can be inferred from the directions that this medicine__________.A. helps you to fall asleep quicklyB. may be dangerous to small childrenC. cannot be taken if one feels sleepyD. shouldn't be taken by children under six例4.“In general,”writes Rubin in her new book, “wome n‘s friendship with each other rest on shared emotions and support, but men‘s relationships are marked by shared activities.”For the most part, Rubin says interactions（交往）between men are emotionally controlled –– a good fit with the social requirements of many behavior.“Even when a man is said to be a best friend,”Rubin writes, “the two share little about their innermost feelings. Whereas a woman‘s closest female friend might be the first to tell her to leave a failing marriage, it wasn‘t unusual to hear a man say he didn‘t know his friend‘s marriage was in serious trouble until be appeared one night asking if he could sleep on the sofa.”1. According to the text, which type of behavior is NOT expected of a man by society?A. Ending his marriage without good reasons.B. Spending too much time with his friends.C. Complaining about his marriage trouble.D. Going out to ballgames too often.2. Which of the following statements is best supported by the last paragraph?A. Men keep their innermost feelings to themselves.B. Women are more serious than men about marriage.C. Men often take sudden action to end their marriage.D. Women depend on others in making decisions.（三）推测作者写作目的和态度T-shirts out; uniforms inSchool uniforms are becoming more and more popular across the U.S.A. That‘s no surprise, because they offer many benefits. They immediately end the powerful social sorting and labeling （标记）that come from clothing. If all students are dressed in the same way, they will not pay too much attention to their clothing, and some of them will not be laughed at for wearing the ―wrong‖ clothes.Some people are against the strict rule of school uniforms, but they do not realize that students already accept a kind of rule — wanting to look just like their friends. The difference is that the clothing students choose for themselves creates social barriers; school uniforms tear those barriers down.As in other places, uniforms remind the wearers of their purposes and duties. For example, when a man or woman puts on a police uniform, he or she becomes, for a time, the symbol （象征）of law and order. The uniform means to the wearer his or her special duties and sends the same message to everyone the wearer meets. People with different jobs wear uniforms of one kindor another. For students, the school uniform reminds them that their task for the six or seven hours they are in school is to get an education.Some parents are unhappy about uniforms, saying that school uniforms will affect their children‘s “creativity.”First, as noted above, the clothes students choose to wear do not necessarily express their individuality （个性）. They just copy their classmates. Second, students have the rest of the day to be as creative as they like. While they‘re in school, their job is to master reading, writing, and maths; this should take up all the creativity they have. Mastery of those skills will be good for the students to build up their creativity in every way.☆The author would probably agree that .A. it makes no difference whether to wear school uniforms or notB. students‘ individuality may not come from school educationC. students‘ creativity is related to the clothes they chooseD. school uniforms help to create equality among students三、限时训练Passage one The telephone rang and I picked it up and the voice said, ―Block party tonight‖ Right then I knew summer had arrived in North Dakota.I‘ll tell you, there is nobody who enjoys summer more than North Dakotans, possibly because it takes such a long time getting here.

Some He makes kings, some beggars, Me He made a hunter. My hand was made for the trigger, my father said. He owned a quarter of million acres of land in the Crimea, and he was an ardent sportsman. When I was only five years old he gave me a little gun specially made in Moscow for me, to shoot birds with. When I shot some of his prize turkeys with it he did not punish me. Instead he complimented me on my skill. I killed my first bear in the Caucasus when I was ten. My whole life had been one prolonged hunts. I went into the army because it was expected of a nobleman‘s son. And for a time I commanded a division of Croaack cavalry, but my meal interest was alwaysthe hunt.

Getting enough sleep has become as important as eating vegetables and exercising regularly. It‘s very important for your body.Most young people only get seven hours of sleep each night, when they actually need nine hours.

They were completely different from my own family, yet I felt at home with them immediately. Jane White and I became friends at school, and her family welcomed me like a long-lost cousin.In my family, it was always important to place blame when anything bad happened.―Who did this? ‖my mother would scre am about a dirty kitchen.―This is all your fault, Katharine, ‖my father would insist when the cat got out or the dishwasher broke.From the time we were little, my sister, brothers and I told on each other. We set a place for blame at the dinner table.But the Whites didn‘t worry about who had done what. They picked up the pieces and moved on with their lives. The beauty of this was driven home to me the summer Jane died.In July, the White sisters and I decided to take a car trip from their home in Florida to New York. The two older sisters, Sarah and Jane, were college students, and the youngest, Amy, had recently turned sixteen. Proud of having a new driver‘s license（驾照），Amy was excited about practicing her driving on the trip. She showed off her license to everyone she met.The big sisters shared the driving of Sarah‘s new car during the first part of the trip, but when they reached less crowded areas, they let Amy take over. Somewhere in South Carolina, we pulled off the highway to eat. After lunch, Amy got behind the wheel. She came to a crossroads with a stop sign. Whether she was nervous or just didn‘t see the sign no one would ever know, but Amy continued into the crossroads without stopping. The driver of a large truck, unable to stop in time, ran into our car.Jane was killed immediately.I was slightly injured. The most difficult thing that I‘ve ever done was to call the Whites to tell them about the accident and that Jane had died. Painful as it was for me to lose a good friend, I knew that it was far worse for them to lose a child.When Mr. and Mrs. White arrived at the hospital, they found their two daughters sharing a room. Sarah had a few cuts on the head; Amy‘s leg was broken. They hugged（拥抱）us all and cried tears of sadness and of joy at seeing their daughters. They wiped away the girls‘ tears and made a few jokes at Amy as she learned to use her crutches（拐杖）.To both of their daughters, and especially to Amy, over and over they simp ly said, ―We‘re so glad that you‘re alive. ‖I was astonished. No blame. No accusations.Later, I asked the Whites why they never talked about the fact that Amy was driving and had run a stop sign.Mrs. White said, ―Jane‘s gone, and we miss h er terribly. Nothing we say or do will ever bring her back. But Amy has her whole life ahead of her. How can she lead a full and happy life if she feels we blame her for her sister‘s death? ‖They were right. Amy graduated from the University of California and got married several years ago. She works as a teacher of learning-disabled students. She‘s also a mother of two little girls of her own, the oldest named Jane.1. The author of the passage is _____.A. Mrs. White‘s nieceB. Jane‘s school friendC. The Whites‘ cousinD.

Then, during the first period teachers call in orders on their room phones, and students make deliveries.By closing tome at 9.20 a.m, the shop usually sells 90 drinks.“Whoever made the chi tea, Ms. Schatzman says it was good,’Christy McKinley, a second year student, announced recently, after hanging up with the teacher.The shop is called the Dixie PIT, which stands for Power in Transition. Although some of the students are not disabled, many are, and the PIT helps them prepare for life after high school.They learn not only how to run a coffee shop but also how to deal with thenaffairs. They keep a timecard and receive paychecks, which they keep in check registers.Special-education teachers Kim Chevalier and Sue Casey introduced the Dixie PIT from a similar program at Kennesaw Mountain High School in Georgia.Not that it was easy. Chevalier’s first problem to overcome was product-related. Should school be selling coffee? What about sugar content?Kenton County Food Service Director Ginger Gray helped. She made sure all the drinks, which use non fat milk, fell within nutrition(营养) guidelines. The whole school has joined in to help.Teachers agreed to give up their lounge(休息室) in the mornings. Art students painted the name of the shop on the wall. Business students designed the paychecks. The basketball team helped pay for cups.1. What is the text mainly about?A. A best selling coffee.B. A special educational program.C. Government support for schools.D. A new type of teacher- student relationship.2.

My brothers and I all loved Brownie and did different things with her. One of us would walk her, another would feed her, then there were baths, playing catch and many other games.Brownie, in return, loved each and every one of us. One thing that most touched my heart was that she would go to whoever was sick and just be with them. We always felt better when she was around.One days, as I was getting her food, she chewed up(咬破) one of Dad’s shoes, which had to be thrown away in the end. I knew Dad would be mad and I had to let her know what she did was w rong. When I looked at her and said, “Bad girl.” She looked down at the ground and then went and hid. I saw a tear in her eyes.Brownie turned out to be more than just our family pet. She went everywhere with us. People would stop and ask if they could pet her. Of course she'd let anyone pet her. She was just the most lovable dog. There were many times when we'd be out walking and a small child would come over and pull on her hair. She never barked (吠) or tried to get away. Funny thing is she would smile. This frightened people because they thought she was showing her teeth. Far from the truth, she loved everyone.Now many years have passed since Brownie died of old age. I still miss the days when she was with us.1. What would Brownie do when someone was ill in the family?A. Look at them sadly.B. Keep them company.C. Play games with them.D. Touch them gently.2.

Which of the following best describes Brownie?A. Shy.B. Polite.C. Brave.D. Caring.C(全国II)How words came into being is unknown. All we assume（推测）is that some early men invented certain sounds, in one way or another, to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could talk with each other. Later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be put together to show those sounds, and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, are called words.The power of words, then, lies in their associations - the things they bring up to our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words bring back to us the happy and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increases.Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which have powerful effects on our minds and feelings. This clever use of words is what we call literary style（文体）. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can express his meaning in words which sing like music, and which by their position and association can move men to tears, We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them correctly, or they will make our speech silly and common.1. We learn from the text that language might have begun withA. expressionsB. actionsC. signsD. sounds2. What is mainly discussed in Paragraph 2?A. The learning of new words.B. The importance of old wordsC. The relation of human experience with words.D. The gradual change and development of words.3. In the last paragraph, what does the author suggest that we should do?A. Use words skillfully.B. Make musical speechesC. Learn poems by heart.D. Associate with listeners.D（北京）Goldie’s SecretShe turned up at the doorstep of my house in Cornwall. No way could I have sent her away. No way, not me anyway. Maybe someone had kicked her out of their car the night before. “We’re moving house.”“No space for her any more with the baby coming.”“We never really wanted her, but what could we have done? She was a present.” People find all sorts of excuses for abandoning an animal. And she was one of the most beautiful dogs I had ever seen.I call her Goldie. If I had known what was going to happen I would have given her a more creative name. She was so unsettled during those first few days. She hardly ate anything and had such an air of sadness about her. There was nothing I could do to make her happy, it seemed. Heaven knows what had happened to her at her previous owner’s. But eventually at the end of the first week she calmed down. Always by my side, whether we were out on one of our long walks or sitting by the fire.That’s why it was such a shock when she pulled away from me one day when we were out for a walk. We were a long way from home, when she started barking and getting very restless. Eventually I couldn’t hold her any longer and she raced off down the road towards a farmhouse in the distance as fast as she could.By the time I reached the farm I was very tired and upset with Goldie. But when I saw her licking (舔) the four puppies (幼犬) I started to feel sympathy towards them. “We didn’t know what had happened to her,” said the woman at the door. “I took her for a walk one day, soon after the puppies were born, and she just disappeared.”“She must have tried to come back to them and got lost,” added a boy from behind her.I must admit I do miss Goldie, but I’ve got Nugget now, and she looks just like her mother. And I’ve learnt a good lesson: not to judge people.1. How did the author feel about Goldie when Goldie came to the house?A. Shocked.B. Sympathetic.C. Annoyed.D. Upset.2.

Goldie rushed off to a farmhouse on day because she __________.A. saw her puppiesB. heard familiar barkingsC. wanted to leave the authorD. found her way to her old home4. The passage is organized in order of __________.A. timeB. effectivenessC. importanceD. complexityE（北京）Open Letter to an EditorI had an interesting conversation with a reporter recently — one who works for you. In fact, he’s one of your best reporters. He wants to leave.Your reporter gave me a copy of his résumé (简历) and photocopies of six stories that he wrote for you. The headlines showed you played them proudly. With great enthusiasm, he talked about how he finds issues (问题), approaches them, and writes about them, which tells me he is one of your best. I’m sure you would hate to lose him Surprisingly, your reporter is not unhappy. In fact, he told me he really likes his job. He has a great assignment (分工), and said you run a great paper. It would be easy for you to keep him, he said. He knows that the paper values him. He appreciates the responsibility you’ve give him, takes ownership of his profession, and enjoys his freedom.So why is he looking for a way out?He talked to me because he wants his editors to demand so much more of him. He wants to be pushed, challenged, coached to new heights.The reporter believes that good stories spring from good questions, but his editors usually ask how long the story will be, when it will be in, where it can play, and whatthe budge is.He longs for conversations with an editor who will help him turn his good ideas into great ones. He wants someone to get excited about what he’s doing and to help him turn his story idea upside down and inside out, exploring the best ways to report it. He wants to be more valuable for our paper. Tha t’s what you want for him, too, isn’t it?So your reporter has set me thinking.Our best hope in keeping our best reporters, copy editors, photographers, artists—everyone —is to work harder to make sure they get the help they are demanding to reach their potential. If we can’t do it, they’ll find someone who can.1. What does the writer think of the reporter?A. Optimistic.B. Imaginative. B. Ambitious. D. Proud.2. What does the reporter want most from his editors in their talks?A. Finding the news value of his stories.B. Giving him financial support.C. Helping him to find issues.D. Improving his good ideas.3. Who probably wrote the letter?A. An editor.B. An artist.C. A reporter.D. A reader.4. The letter aims to remind editors that they should __________.A. keep their best reporters at all costsB. give more freedom to their reportersC. be aware of their reporters’ professional developmentD. appreciate their reporters’ working styles and attitudesF（辽宁）A volcanic eruption in Iceland has sent ash across northern Europe Airlines have stopped or changed the flights across the Atlantic Ocean, leaving hundreds of passengers stuck in airports.Grimsvotn is one of the largest and most active volcanoes in Europe. Whatmakes Grimsvotn different is that it lies under a huge glacier(冰川) of ice up to 12 meters thick. The hot volcano heats up the ice above it, which then forms a layer(层)of water between the glacier and the volcano This layer of water puts pressure on the volcano, keeping it stable, As the water flows out from under the glacier, the pressure lifts. The lava(岩浆) from the volcano then comes up to the surface. This is exactly what happened today.Now, airlines have to make changes to their flights so as not to fly through the clouds of volcanic ash. According to KLM, one of Europe’s biggest airlines, airplanes cannot go under the cloud or over it. Going through the cloud can result in ash getting stuck in the airplane’s engines, causing damage to the plane.The eruption has also caused problems for animals in Iceland. The volcano left ash and sharp. Glass-like rocks all over the countryside. Farmers are keeping their animals inside to stop them from eating ash—covered grass to the sharp object.1. What makes Grimsvotn different from other volcanoes?A. It is below ice.B. It lies under the seaC. It is the largest volcanoD. It is lava affects the airlines2. What keeps Grimsvotn still?A. The slow flow of water.B. The low water temperature.C. The thick glacier.D. The water pressure.3. Which of the following is the result of the volcanic eruption?A. People stop traveling in Europe.B. Airlines suffer from the loss of planes.C. It becomes dangerous for animals to eat outside.D. Farmers have lost many of their animals.4. This text is most probably taken from________.A. a research paperB. a newspaper reportC. a class presentationD. a geography textbookF(陕西)Did you know that women’s brains are smaller than men’s? The average women’s brain weighs 10% less than men’s. Since research has shown that the bigger the brain, the cleverer the animal, men must be more intelligent(聪明的) than women. Right? Wrong. Men and women always score similarly on intelligence tests, despite the difference in brain size. Why? After years of study, researchers have concluded that it’s what’s inside that matters, not just the size of the brain. The brain consists of “grey matter” and “white matter”. While men have more of the latter, the amount of “thinking” brain is almost exactly the s ame in both sexes.It has been suggested that smaller brain appears to work faster, perhaps because the two sides of the brain are better connected in women. This means that little girls tend to learn to speak earlier, and that women can understand sorts of information from different sources at the same time. When it comes to talking to the boss on the phone, cooking dinner and keeping an eye on the baby all at the same time, it’s women who come out on top every time.There are other important differences between two sexes. As white matter is the key to spatial(空间的) tasks, men know better where things are in relation to other things. “A great footballer always knows where he is in relation to the other players, and h e knows where to go,” says one researcher. That may explain one of life’s great mysteries: why men refuse to ask for directions … and women often need to!The differences begin when fetuses(胎儿) are about nine weeks old, which can be seen in the action of children as young as one. A boy would try to climb a barrier (障碍物) before him or push it down while a girl would attract help from others. These brain differences also explain the fact that more men take up jobs that require good spatial skills, while more women speech skills. It may all go back to our ancestors(祖先) ,among whom women needed speech skills to take care of their babies and men needed spatial skills to hunt, according to one research.If all this disappoints you, it shouldn’t. “The brain changes throughout our livesaccording to wh at we do with it.” says a biologist.1. Which of the following is true according to the first paragraph?A. Women’s brain is 10% less than men’sB. Grey matter plays the same role as white matter.C. Grey matter controls thinking in the brain.D. Both sexes have the same amount of white matter.2. What can we infer from the second and third paragraphs?A. Women prefer doing many things at a time.B. Men do better dealing with one job at a time.C. Women do not need to tell directions.D. Men have weaker spatial abilities.3. Which of the following do you agree with according to the fourth paragraph?A. Young boys may be stronger than young girls.B. More women take up jobs requiring speech skillsC. Women may have stronger feelings than men.D. Our ancestors needed more spatial skills.4. What is the writer’s attitude in writing this passage?A. Defensive.B. Persuasive.C. Supportive.D. Objective.G(全国I )Edward Wilson is America’s, if not the world’s, leading naturalist. In The Future of Life, he takes us on a tour of the world’s natural resources(资源). How are they used? What has been lost? What remains and is it able to continue with the present speed of use? Wilson also points out the need to understand fully the biodiversity(生物多样性)of our earth.Wilson begins with an open letter to the pioneer in environment (环境) protection, Henry David Thoreau. He compares today’s Walden Pond with that of Thoreau’s day. Wilson will use such comparisons for the rest of the book. The problem is clear: man has done great damage to his home over the years. Van the earth, with human help, be made to return to biodiversity levels that will be able tosupport us in the future?Biodiversity, Wilson argues, is the key to settling many problems the earth faces today. Even our agricultural crops can gain advantages from it. A mere hundred species(物种) are the basis of our food supply, of which but twenty carry the load. Wilson suggests changing this situation by looking into ten thousand species that could be made use of, which will be a way to reduce the clearing of the natural hoes of, plants and animals to enlarge farming areas.At the end of the book, Wilson discusses the importance of human values in considering the environment. If you are to continue to live on the earth, you may well read and act on the ideas in this book.1. We learn form the text that Wilson cares most about ________A. the environment for plantsB. the biodiversity of our earthC. the wastes of natural resourcesD. the importance of human values2. How many species are most important to our present food supply?A. Twenty.B. Eighty.C. One hundredD. Ten thousand.3. Wilson suggests that one way to keep biodiversity is to _________.A. learn how to farm scientificallyB. build homes for some dying speciesC. make it clear what to eatD. use more species for food4. We can infer that the text is __________.A. a description of natural resourcesB. a research reportC. a book reviewD. an introduction to a scientist.11。

全国名校最新模拟题（共八篇）Passage 1 (2022届东北三省四市教研联合体高考模拟)Take a good look at the American burying beetle(甲虫)Once found in 35 states, the insect is assessed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature as critically endangered. Like the tiger, the American burying beetle has orange and black stripes(条纹); like the tiger, the beetle is declining in number. The tiger is an instantly recognizable symbol of species preservation, but most people aren’t familiar with the beetle.This difference is an example of the domination of the so-called celebrity species—the fascinating creatures that nonprofits and government agencies use to raise public interest in conservation. Most nonprofit funds for animal protection go to species such as apes, elephants, big cats, rhinoceroses, and giant pandas. Tigers are often rated the most popular animal—and India, home to the majority of these big cats, spent more than 49 million on tiger conservation alone in 2019. Meanwhile, many lesser known species of fish, reptiles, amphibians, and birds weaken in namelessness. Worldwide, more than 35, 500 plant and animal species are on the edge of disappearing forever.This leaves us with a tough situation. Conservation is underfunded, so how do we decide which species to save?One potential solution, the debatable idea of conservation triage(检伤分类), holds that experts need to quickly decide which species can be saved while realizing that others can’t be saved. Conservationists have developed analytical tools to approach the question in a less emotional, more practical way. Fish and Wildlife Service now uses this knapsack (背包)method—inspired by a hiker’s need to fit the most valuable items into a small space—to get the “most bang for their buck” in saving species. The method calculates the most efficient conservation strategies using factors such as costs to recover a species and its likelihood of going extinct.8．What does the first paragraph serve to the whole passage?A．To propose a definition B．To introduce the topicC．To reach a conclusion D．To present an argument9．What is the author’s attitude to the lesser known species?A．Concerned.B．Unclear.C．Optimistic D．Indifferent.10．What does the underlined part in the last paragraph probably mean?A．Damage to the environment.B．Hard work for a goal.C．Best value for money.D．Most fun from the hike.11．What will the author probably talk about in the following paragraph?A．Causes of some animals’ endangerment.B．Other methods of deciding which species to save.C．The authorities’ role in reasonable use of funds.D．An appeal to save the American burying beetle.Passage 2 ( 2023届江西省南昌市高三零模英语试题)Tina Leverton was 62 when she bought her first pair of ballet shoes. She said putting her feet into the soft leather was very emotional. She said: “I’ve waited a long time for it.”A few days later, Leverton took her first ballet class after seeing an advertisement in a newspaper. It showed older women dancing in a class near Leverton’s house. “As I came in the door, I found a big smile on my face. From the minute I started, I felt like coming home.”Leverton had longed to dance as a child. Sadly, her parents couldn’t afford ballet classes, for they were first-generation Indian immigrants, struggling to make a living in the UK. Her father was a train driver on the underground in London and her mother held two cleaning jobs. Nonetheless, she harboured her dream of being a ballerina (芭蕾舞女演员).At her present age, a grand plie-lowering to the floor with bent knees-seemed to be out of the question. It took her three months to master the move: leaping and landing on one foot. ”I love the struggle and the challenge of learning something new. People in their 60s have a lot of self-limiting beliefs: ‘I can’t do it,’ ‘I’m not good enough.’ And maybe they’re not good enough. But it doesn’t matter,” she said.Ballet has been transformative. At a medical appointment a few months after Leverton’s first class, a nurse measured her at 163cm, half an inch taller than she had thought. She attributes (归因) the difference to improved posture. Her muscle tone has improved and her lower back pain has stopped. Dancing has also brought new friends. She met a group of older, more independent women and worked together towards a team award with the Royal Academy of Dance. And then, of course, there is the joyful feeling. “Ballet is all the therapy (治疗) I’ll ever need,” said Leverton.4．How did Leverton feel after taking her dance lesson?A．Tired.B．Confused.C．Shocked.D．Thrilled.5．Why didn’t Leverton learn to dance she was young?A．Her family was badly off.B．She wasn’t able to leap high.C．Her family laughed at her dream.D．She had to focus on classes.6．What did dancing bring to Leverton?A．A team award.B．Money and fame.C．Friendship and joy.D．A medical treatment.7．What can we learn from Leverton’s story?A．Hard work pays off.B．Never too old to pursue dreams.C．Interest is the key to success.D．Money isn’t everything.Passage 3 (2023届粤湘鄂名校联盟高三上学期第一次联考英语试题)It is lunchtime. At a long table inside a restaurant, some young people sit together over lunch. There is less conversation than you might expect from a typical group of friends: a boy seems to talk only to himself, and a girl looks anxious.These young people met through a program organized by the nonprofit Actionplay, where young people with autism work together to write and stage a musical. Each Sunday, they work and have lunch together. “You meet other people just like you,” says Lexi Spindel. “That was the first time my daughter had a friend,” says Lexi’s father. “That never happened before Actionplay.”For decades, scientists have supposed people with autism don’t have or need friends. A new research is forcing a rethink of those long-held beliefs. Autistic people report they want friends. One significant barrier to friendships is common people’s opinion that autistic people are not interested in connecting with them. Appearing uninterested, however, is not always the same as being uninterested. An autistic child looking uninterested in games may in fact be overcome by the noise. And behaviors like clapping hands repeatedly are a way to manage their anxiety and uncertainty, not a sign of their low social interest.For some autistic people, friendships develop through experimental programs. In a program Lerner developed, participants play a game called Gibberish. where teenagers must interpret each other’s intentions without using real language. The point is not to get it right. but to attend to what the other person is doing in a way that creates opportunities to connect.Lerner’s ideas were inspired by a moment 16 years ago after he established a small camp for children with autism called Spotlight. On the second day an l1-year-old boy ran up and pulled his clothes. “Lerner, Lerner, where did you find these kids?”“All over the place,” Lerner answered. “Everyone wants to come to camp, just like you.”“This is the first normal group of kids I have never met.” the boy said.12．The scene in paragraph 1 is described to ________.A．reveal the lack of an interpersonal conversationB．prove the difficulty in reducing teenage anxietyC．stress the great necessity of forming friendshipsD．show the different behavior of a particular group13．What is Actionplay aimed at?A．Curing young people of autism.B．Developing autistic people’s taste in art.C．Offering autistic people a social platform.D．Improving young people’s family relationship.14．What can we infer from paragraph 3?A．Autistic people have no intention to make friends.B．Noise sets barriers to autistic people’s views on games.C．Repetitive movements make autistic people feel secure.D．Common beliefs cause autistic people’s low social interest.15．What does the underlined sentence imply?A．He feels at ease with his autistic fellows.B．He no longer regards himself as an autistic kid.C．Lerner’s guidance helps him get out of autism.D．Autistic kids don’t long to socialize with normal ones.Passage 4 (2023届浙江省杭州第二中学新高三上学期适应性测试英语试题)Although it is a business not many are aware of, sidewalk robots are set to become an industry with annual sales of $Ibn within a decade, reckons IDTechEx, a British firm of analysts. These four-or six-wheeled autonomous machines, usually the size of a suitcase, are already delivering groceries and other goods in America, China and Europe.That puts them ahead of many driverless cars, vans and lorries being developed. Those bigger vehicles are held back not by technology but regulation, says Zehao Li of IDTechEx. So having a "safety driver" on board ready to take over if there is a problem, which is hardly labor-saving.For these larger contraptions regulators want to see safety systems thoroughly proved. But there are legal hurdles, too. In January Britain's Law Commission, which reviews legislation, recommended that it should not be the person in the driver's seat who faces prosecution if a vehicle in autonomous mode crashes, but the manufacturer or body that sought approval for its use.Meanwhile, sidewalk robots are getting on with the job. Among them, Starship Technologies, based in San Francisco, reckons it has already clocked up more than 2.5m deliveries with bots in a number of cities, university campuses and business parks in Europe and America. Amazon is carrying out trials with a similar sort of machine it calls Scout. Kiwibot, a Colombian startup, is making sidewalk deliveries in Califomia.Typically, these robots carry a few bags of groceries using a variety of sensors, including cameras, radar and GPS to navigate and avoid obstacles and people. Their progress can be monitored on a phone app, which also unlocks them for goods to be retrieved. As they are small. move slowly(Starship's bots might reach a heady 6kph) and are "telemonitored" by people in a control room who can take over, authorities seem more willing to give them a green light.Such robots are also becoming more autonomous. In January Serve Robotics, another San Franciscan firm whose backers include Uber, a ride-hailing giant, said it had deployed a new sidewalk bot with "level 4"autonomy, which means it can operate without telemonitoring in some predesignated areas.Robotic versions which operate on roads but have no driver's cab are also appearing. Nuro, a Silicon Valley firm, makes one about the size of a small car that can carry 24 bags of groceries. It has chilled and heated compartments for food and drinks. Further along the road in earning their keep, these delivery bots are helping to pave the way for the time when bigger autonomous vehicles can join them.8．What can we learn from paragraph one?A．Sidewalk robots are portable like a suitcase.B．In the past decade, Ibn dollars have been invested into industry.C．The delivery industries of the US, China and Europe are dependent on sidewalk robots.D．The industry of sidewalk robot is expanding unknowingly.9．According to the passage, who should be responsible for automatic driving car accidents?A．Safety drivers seated in the driver's seat.B．Every passenger except the driver.C．Organizations supportive of autonomous mode.D．Manufacturers and bodies seeking approval for using safety drivers.10．What does the underlined phrase in paragraph four mean?A．reached B．designedC．bought D．invented11．Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A．Amazon is using Scout to deliver groceries for people.B．If groceries are wrongly delivered, robots can take them back.C．Some robots may deliver groceries with no one telemonitoring them.D．Both cold and hot food can be preserved inside a sidewalk robot developed by Nuro.Passage 5 （北京市第八十中学2022-2023学年高三上学期10月月考英语试题）When Kirk Alexander went missing for 11 days, an unlikely savior came to his rescue: his neighborhood pizza store.Almost every night for more than ten years, Kirk Alexander, 48, of Salem, Oregon ordered a late dinner from his local Domino’s pizza store. He had no signature order. Sometimes he would call for a salad, sometimes a pie, sometimes chicken wings. The only sure thing for the staff of the Silverton Road Domino’s was that they would see Alexander’s name show up on their online ordering site sometime between 11 p. m. and midnight several times a week.Until suddenly, for nearly two weeks at the end of April 2016, they didn’t.It was a slow Saturday night on May 7th when Domino’s general manager Sarah Fuller felt she could no longer ignore Alexander’s recent absence.“I went and looked up to see how long it had been since he last ordered,” Fuller told KATU. com. “It was 11 days, which was not like him at all.”Fuller knew Alexander worked from home, and neighbors said he rarely left. She also knew that he had suffered some health issues in the past. Something, Fuller worried, was wrong.Around 1 a. m. on Sunday, May 8, Fuller sent longtime delivery driver Tracey Hamblen to stop in at Alexander’s home. Hamblen approached Alexander’s door as he had countless times before and knocked. He could plainly see that Alexander’s TV set was on, as were his lights; but after several minutes, Alexander still didn’t answer the door.Hamblen rushed back to the store to relay the upsetting developments to Fuller. She encouraged Hamblen to dial 911. Soon, officers were on their way.When deputies from the Marion County Sheriff’s office arrived at Alexander’s house, they heard a man calling for help from inside the residence, deputies said. They broke the door down, and found Alexander on the floor in need of immediate medical attention. One day later, and they might have been too late.Alexander was rushed to Salem Hospital, where he was listed in stable condition shortly after the dramatic rescue. In the following weeks, Fuller, Hamblen, and other store employees went to visit him with flowers and cards, noting that Alexander greeted them with knowing smiles.24．How did Fuller sense that something was wrong?A．She knew Alexander had serious health problems.B．Alexander hadn’t ordered chicken wings for nearly 2 weeks.C．Alexander had never before broken his routine in the store for 10 years.D．Alexander had disappeared from the store’s ordering system for about 2 weeks.25．What can you infer from the underlined sentence?A．Hamblen was fond of knocking at Alexander’s door.B．Hamblen was more than an acquaintance to Alexander.C．Every time Hamblen arrived at Alexander’s house, he would knock first.D．When Hamblen had enough time in the past, he would go to Alexander’s house.26．The saying we can learn from the story is________.A．Better late than neverB．Born in distress, die in peaceC．Details determine success or failureD．Even the wise are not always free from errorPassage 6 (甘肃省武威市凉州区部分校联考2022-2023学年高三上学期第二次诊断) The first time that I met a blind scientist. I worked in a program for disabled students interested in pursuing STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Maths) research. Until that point, it had never occurred to me how blind students were prevented from receiving science education. My daily experience in classrooms consisted of professors drawing and writing on the board with the assumption that students in the class could see. But what about those students who cannot see or suffer from vision problems?A recent paper from Baylor University, led by Katelyn Baumer and Bryan Shaw, was inspired by exactly this problem.They designed a study to assess whether people could learn to recognize 3D models, like those often used to teach science, with their mouths instead of with their eyes.A 202l paper in Nature found that primates(灵长类动物)showed the same brain circuit activation(激活)when grasping objects with their hands and when moving an object with their tongues.This indicates that there may be underlying similarities of physical manipulations(操纵)of the hand and the mouth.Baumer and Shaw found that there was comparable touch recognition with hands to mouth manipulation recognition when using these models. 365 college students and 31 primary school students participated in the study. The participants were blindfolded and then divided into two groups, one assigned to manipulate objects by hand, and one to manipulate the objects with only their mouths. Each participant was given a single model protein to study. They then were asked to identify whether each of a set of eight other protein models matched the original they were given.The research team saw that both age groups of students were able to successfully distinguish between models. Moreover, the accuracy of recalling the structures was higher in people who only assessed the models through mouth manipulation.Although this study did not involve blind or low-vision students, it sets the basis for expanding into them next. It may offer a way to have science become more accessible, which is the ultimate goal.8．Who will most probably benefit from Baumer and Shaw’s study?A．Professors.B．College students.C．Primary school students.D．Blind and low-vision students.9．What does the author intend to do in paragraph 3?A．Explain a concept to readers.B．Provide supporting information.C．Summarize the previous paragraphs.D．Introduce a new topic for discussion.10．What method is used in the study?A．Making comparisons.B．Doing surveys.C．Conducting interviews.D．Reviewing papers.11．What is the text mainly about?A．A recent paper about STEM education.B．A protein model used in science teaching.C．A potential way for disabled students to learn science.D．An academic program for blind scientists to do research.Passage 7 (河北省衡水市部分学校2022-2023学年高三上学期9月月考)When she was just 9 years old, Hilde Lysiak became famous across the United States for reporting on difficult news stories. Now Hilde has written a book telling her own story, and sharing some of the challenges she faced.Hilde Kate Lysiak’s father was a reporter for the New York Daily News. When she was young, he often took her to work with him, and she developed a strong interest in news stories and reporting. When she was 8, Hilde started her own newspaper, called the Orange Street News (OSN). Her family lived on Orange Street. Hilde did the writing, her sister Izzy took pictures, and her father helped her organize and print the newspaper. Following the rules her father had taught her, she researched and reported stories in her monthly newspaper.OSN suddenly became famous when a murder happened in town, and 9-year-old Hilde was the first person to report it. Soon, news organizations around the country were doing stories on Hilde. Some people criticized her parents for allowing her to report on something as unpleasant as a murder. Others criticized Hilde for “pretending to be a reporter”. Some people even suggested she should be playing with dolls.Hilde was upset by the complaints. She responded with a You Tube video. “I never began my newspaper so that people would think I was cute,” she said. “I want to be taken seriously. I’m sure other kids do, too.” That wasn’t the last time Hilde had trouble getting people to take her seriously. Sometimes, it was because of her age. Other times, it was because she was a girl. But she never let that stop her. Hilde continued reporting.Hilde’s activities as a reporter have made her famous, and she has earned several awards. With her father, Hilde has written a series of books for young people, called Hilde Cracks the Case. The books are based loosely on stories that Hilde wrote. The books have now been turned into a TV show called Home Before Dark.4．What caused Hilde to be interested in news reporting?A．Her unusual writing skills.B．Her experience with her father at work.C．Her mother’s encouragement.D．Her passion for reading newspapers.5．What can we infer from the third paragraph?A．Hilde took pride in the Orange Street News.B．All the media misunderstood Hilde’s behaviour.C．Not everyone was happy about Hilde’s efforts.D．Unpleasant stories were prohibited from being reported.6．Which of the following can be used to describe Hilde?A．Determined.B．Adaptable.C．Awkward.D．Reliable.7．What is probably the best title for the text?A．Challenges Hilde Faced When She Was YoungB．A Biographical Novel Written by Hilde LysiakC．The Orange Street News: a Popular NewspaperD．Hilde Lysiak: Young Reporter Tells Her Own StoryPassage 8 (河南省南阳市第一中学校2022-2023学年高三上学期第一次月考)Just like happiness and sadness, anxiety is part of everyone's lived experience-but it’s not always tolerated as such. “People often spend too much time and effort trying to rid anxiety,” says Dr Joel Minden, a clinical psychologist. “I encourage them to remember that anxiety is a normal emotional response.”If you try to banish anxiety, all you're doing is putting it more at the forefront of your mind. But if you accept anxiety as part of life, you can learn to relate to it with self-pity or even with humour. This is a cornerstone of acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), which has been gaining clinical validation, including by the American Psychological Association. ACT guides people to see their unpleasant emotions as just feelings and to accept that hardship is an indispensable part of life. Sufferers are encouraged to begin a dialogue with anxious thoughts, examining their causes while also keeping in mind their personal goals and values.This way of relating to anxiety has been a powerful strategy for John Bateman, the 52-year-old host of the podcast Our Anxiety Stories. When negative thoughts arise, he acknowledges them but doesn’t let them drive his decisions. Over the years, Bateman has noticed that if he submits to his thoughts, they don’t go away but dramatically increase. But if he recognizes them for what they are, just a passing thought and not a fact that needs to be acted on, they gradually go away.Learning to live with anxiety is an individual process and one that requires trial and error to get just right. While acceptance is the first and most important step to take, some lifestyle changes have been proven to take the edge off as well. Since tiredness, increased tension and stress leave us much easier to fall into anxiety, a well-balanced diet, sufficient rest and, especially, regular exercise can help us manage it better.12．What may Dr Joel Minden agree about anxiety?A．It goes hand in hand with joy.B．It should be seriously taken.C．It is easily-earned experience.D．It is often improperly treated.13．What can explain the underlined word “banish” in Paragraph 2?A．Recognize.B．Focus.C．Hide.D．Eliminate.14．Why does the author mention John Bateman in Paragraph 3?A．To define.B．To inform.C．To illustrate.D．To educate.15．What is advised to deal with anxiety in the last part?A．Concentrating on the process.B．Making lifestyle adjustments.C．Avoiding exposure to pressure.D．Learning to get things in place.答案：1._______________________;2._______________________3._______________________; 5._______________________5._______________________;6._______________________7._______________________; 8._______________________高考质量提升是一项系统工程，涉及到多个方面、各个维度，关键是要抓住重点、以点带面、全面突破，收到事半功倍的效果。

In Australia they call a farm a property.Robert and Joana like school very much. At school they can talk to their friends, but Robert and Joanna can not see their friends. They live 100,perhaps 300,miles away and like Robert and Joanna, they all go to school by radio.Mount Eben ezer is in the centre of Australia. Not many people in “The Centre”, there are no schools with desks and blackboards and no teachers in “The Centre”.School is a room at home with a two-way radio. When all students answer, lessons begin.Think of your teacher 300 miles away!（1）The children in “The Centre” do not go to school because _____________.A. they live too far away from one anotherB. they do not like schoolC. they are not old enough to go to schoolD. their families are too poor（2）In order to send their children to school, parents in “The Centre” of Australia must have___________________.A. a propertyB. a carC. a school room at homeD. a special radio（3）When children are having a lesson, they can hear their teacher ______________.A. but their teacher cannot hear themB. and their teacher can hear them tooC. but can not hear their schoolmates.D. and see him or her at the same time.（4）A “property” in Australia is a _________________.A. houseB. schoolC. farmD. radio2.阅读理解Like many other people, I love my smart phone, which keeps me connected with the larger world that can go anywhere with me. I also love my laptop, because it holds all of my writing and thoughts. In spite of this love of technology, I know that there are times when I need to move away from these devices and truly communicate with others.On occasion, I teach a course called History Matters for a group of higher education managers. My goals for the class include a full discussion of historical themes and ideas. Because I want students to thoroughly study the materials and exchange their ideas with each other in the classroom, I have a rule ---no laptop, iPads, phones, etc. When students were told my rule in advance of the class, some of them were not happy.Most students assume that my reasons for this rule include unpleasant experiences in the past with students misusing technology. There's a bit of truth to that. Some students assume that I am anti-technology. There's no truth in that at all. I love technology and try to keep up with it, so I create to my students.The real reason why I ask students to leave technology at the door is that I think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversions and truly engage complex ideas. Interruptions by technology often break concentration and allow for too much dependence on outside information for ideas. I want students to dig deepwithin themselves for inspiration and ideas. I want them to push each other to think differently and make connections between the course materials and the class discussion.I've been teaching my history class in this way for many years and the evaluations reflect students' satisfaction with the environment that I create. Students realize that with deep conversation and challenge, they learn at a level that helps them keep the course materials beyond the classroom.I'm not saying that I won't ever change my mind about technology use in my history class, but until I hear a really good reason for the change, I'm sticking to my plan. A few hours of technology-free dialogue is just too sweet to give up.（1）Which of the following statements is true?A. The author's history class received low assessment.B. The students think highly of the author's history class.C. The author made the rule in that he was against technology.D. The author made the rule mainly because of his unpleasant experiences.（2）According to the author, the use of technology in the classroom may .A. allow students to get on well with each otherB. improve teaching and offer more helpC. prohibit students being involved in classD. help students to better understand complex themes（3）What can we infer from the passage?A. More and more students will be absent in history class.B. The author will carry on the success in the future.C. Some students will be punished according to the rule.D. The author will help students concentrate on what they learn.3.根据短文理解，选择正确答案。

But the scientific community still rejected Berkland's theory.He didn't document every prediction，so nobody could measure his accuracy rate.Actual scientific evidence has to be repeatable.And a connection between a cause and an effect has to be shown to be stronger than random chance through careful experimentation and data collection.California researchers in the 1970s happened to have built controlled habitats to monitor the wheelrunning activity of pocket mice.These habitats happened to be in an active earthquake area.Then the 1971 San Fernando Earthquake struck nearby.The researchers checked their data and found no big changes in how long the animals ran in their wheels or stayed underground before the earthquake activity.What might the next experiment show?Researchers from 150 universities worldwide are working on a new study called the ICARUS project.The project tracks many small animal species such as birds，bats，and turtles for the purpose of scientific research.One group of researchers are looking for possible connections between animal behaviors and earthquakes.If they find a reliable connection，this could save hundreds of thousands of human lives.ICARUS aims to power an app that will give people hours to get to safety.However，not everyone is hopeful.Geologist Wendy Bohon said that ICARUS is doing some “cool things”，but she knows animal behaviors are hard to pin down.“My cat could act crazy before an earthquake，”she says.“But it also acts crazy if somebody uses the can opener.”【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。
新高考英语阅读理解专项训练05 推理判断题练习
新高考英语阅读理解专项训练传统阅读—推理判断题D（2019-I）During the rosy years of elementary school（小学）, I enjoyed sharing my dolls and jokes, which allowed me to keep my high social status. I was the queen of the playground. Then came my tweens and teens, and mean girls and cool kids. They rose in the ranks not by being friendly but by smoking cigarettes, breaking rules and playing jokes on others, among whom I soon found myself.Popularity is a well-explored subject in social psychology. Mitch Prinstein, a professor of clinical psychology sorts the popular into two categories: the likable and the status seekers. The likables’plays-well-with-others qualities strengthen schoolyard friendships, jump-start interpersonal skills and, when tapped early, are employed ever after in life and work. Then there’s the kind of popularity that appears in adolescence: status born of power and even dishonorable behavior.Enviable as the cool kids may have seemed, Dr. Prinstein’s studies show unpleasant consequences. Those who were highest in status in high school, as well as those least liked in elementary school, are “most likely to engage（从事）in dangerous and risky behavior.”In one study, Dr. Prinstein examined the two types of popularity in 235 adolescents, scoring the least liked, the most liked and the highest in status based on student surveys（调查研究）. “We found that the least well-liked teens had become more aggressive over time toward their classmates. But so had those who were high in status. It clearly showed that while likability can lead to healthy adjustment, high status has just the opposite effect on us."Dr. Prinstein has also found that the qualities that made the neighbors want you on a play date-sharing, kindness, openness —carry over to later years and make you better able to relate and connect with others.In analyzing his and other research,Dr. Prinstein came to another conclusion: Not only is likability related to positive life outcomes, but it is also responsible for those outcomes, too. "Being liked creates opportunities for learning and for new kinds of life experiences that help somebody gain an advantage, ” he said.32. What sort of girl was the author in her early years of elementary school?A. Unkind.B. Lonely.C. Generous.D. Cool.33.What is the second paragraph mainly about？A. The classification of the popular.B. The characteristics of adolescents.C. The importance of interpersonal skills.D. The causes of dishonorable behavior.34. What did Dr. Prinstein’s study find about the most liked kids?A. They appeared to be aggressive.B. They tended to be more adaptable.C. They enjoyed the highest status.D. They performed well academically.35. What is the best title for the text?A. Be Nice-You Won’t Finish LastB. The Higher the Status, the BeerC. Be the Best-You Can Make ItD. More Self-Control, Less AggressivenessD(2018-I)We may think we're a culture that gets rid of our worn technology at the first sight of something shiny and new,but a new study shows that we keep using our old devices(装置) well after they go out of style. That’s bad news for the environment— and our wallets — as these outdated devices consume much more energy than the newer ones that do the same things.To figure out how much power these devices are using,Callie Babbitt and her colleagues at the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York tracked the environmental costs for each product throughout its life —from when its minerals are mined to when we stop using the device. This method provided a readout for how home energy use has evolved since the early 1990s. Devices were grouped by generation. Desktop computers,basic mobile phones,and box-set TVs defined 1992. Digital cameras arrived on the scene in 1997. And MP3 players, smart phones, and LCD TVs entered homes in 2002,before tablets and e-readers showed up in 2007.As we accumulated more devices,however,we didn't throw out our old ones. "The living-room television is replaced and gets planted in the kids' room, and suddenly one day, you have a TV in every room of the house," said one researcher. The average number of electronic devices rose from four per household in 1992 to 13 in 2007. We're not just keeping these old devices —we continue to use them. According to the analysis of Babbitt's team, old desktop monitors and box TVs with cathode ray tubes are the worst devices with their energy consumption and contribution to greenhouse gas emissions（排放）more than doubling during the 1992 to 2007 window.So what's the solution（解决方案）? The team's data only went up to 2007, but the researchers also explored what would happen if consumers replaced old products with new electronics that serve more than one function, such as a tablet for word processing and TV viewing. They found that more on-demand entertainment viewing on tablets instead of TVs and desktop computers could cut energy consumption by 44%.32. What does the author think of new devices?A. They are environment-friendly.B. They are no better than the old.C. They cost more to use at home.D. They go out of style quickly.33. Why did Babbitt's team conduct the research?A. To reduce the cost of minerals.B. To test the life cycle of a product.C. To update consumers on new technology.D. To find out electricity consumption of the devices.34. Which of the following uses the least energy?A. The box-set TV.B. The tablet.C. The LCD TV.D. The desktop computer.35. What does the text suggest people do about old electronic devices?A. Stop using them.B. Take them apart.C. Upgrade them.D. Recycle them.D(2017-II)When a leafy plant is under attack，it doesn’t sit quietly. Back in 1983，two scientists，Jack Schultz and Ian Baldwin，reported that young maple trees getting bitten by insects send out a particular smell that neighboring plants can get. These chemicals come from the injured parts of the plant and seem to be an alarm. What the plants pump through the air is a mixture of chemicals known as volatile organic compounds，VOCs for short.Scientists have found that all kinds of plants give out VOCs when being attacked. It’s a plant’s way of crying out. But is anyone listening? Apparently. Because we can watch the neighbors react.Some plants pump out smelly chemicals to keep insects away. But others do double duty. They pump out perfumes designed to attract different insects who are natural enemies to the attackers. Once they arrive，the tables are turned. The attacker who was lunching now becomes lunch.In study after study，it appears that these chemical conversations help the neighbors. The damage is usually more serious on the first plant，but the neighbors，relatively speaking，stay safer because they heard the alarm and knew what to do.Does this mean that plants talk to each other? Scientists don’t know. Maybe the first plant just made a cry of pain or was sending a message to its own branches, and so, in effect, was talking to itself. Perhaps the neighbors just happened to “overhear” the cry. So information was exchanged，but it wasn’t a true，intentional back and forth.Charles Darwin, over 150 years ago, imagined a world far busier, noisier and more intimate(亲密的) than the world we can see and hear. Our senses are weak. There’s a whole lot going on.32. What does a plant do when it is under attack?A. It makes noises.B. It gets help from other plants.C. It stands quietlyD. It sends out certain chemicals.33. What does the author mean by “the tables are turned” in paragraph 3?A. The attackers get attacked.B. The insects gather under the table.C. The plants get ready to fight back.D. The perfumes attract natural enemies.34. Scientists find from their studies that plants can .A. predict natural disastersB. protect themselves against insectsC. talk to one another intentionallyD. help their neighbors when necessary35. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. The word is changing faster than ever.B. People have stronger senses than beforeC. The world is more complex than it seemsD. People in Darwin’s time were more imaginative.B(2017-III)Minutes after the last movie ended yesterday at the Plaza Theater, employees were busy sweeping up popcorns and gathering coke cups. It was a scene that had been repeated many times in the theater’s 75-year history. This time, however, the cleanup was a little different. As one group of workers carried out the rubbish, another group began removing seats and other theater equipment in preparation for the building’s end．The film classic The Last Picture Show was the last movie shown in the old theater．Though the movie is 30 years old, most of the 250 seats were filled with teary-eyed audience wanting to say good-be to the old building．Theater owner Ed Bradford said he chose the movie because it seemed appropriate．The movie is set in a small town where the only movie theater is preparing to close down．Bradford said that large modern theaters in the city made it impossible for the Plaza to compete．He added that the theater’s location(位置) was also a reason．“This used to be the center of town,”he said．“Now the area is mostly office buildings and warehouses．”Last week some city officials suggested the city might be interested in turning the old theater into a museum and public meeting place. However, these plans were abandoned because of financial problems. Bradford sold the building and land to a local development firm, which plans to build a shopping complex on the land where the theater is located．The theater audience said good-by as Bradford locked the doors for the last time．After 75 years the Plaza Theater has shown its last movie．The theater will be missed．24．In what way was yesterday’s cleanup at the Plaza special?A．It made room for new equipment．B．It signaled the closedown of the theater．C．It was done with the help of the audience．D．It marked the 75th anniversary of the theater．25．Why was The Last Picture Show put on?A．It was an all-time classic.

In fact, they were shot from 1914 through 1916, most of them after a disastrous shipwreck(海滩), by a cameraman who had no reasonable expectation of survival. Many of the images were stored in an ice chest, under freezing water, in the damaged wooden ship.The ship was the Endurance, a small, tight, Norwegian-built three-master that was intended to take Sir Ernest Shackleton and a small crew of seamen and scientists, 27 men in all, to the southernmost shore of Antarctica’s Weddell Sea. From that point Shackleton wanted to force a passage by dog sled(雪橇) across the continent. The journey was intended to achieve more than what Captain Robert Falcon Scott had done. Captain Scott had reached the South Pole early in 1912 but had died with his four companions on the march back.As writer Caroline Alexander makes clear in her forceful and well-researched story The Endurance, adventuring was even then a thoroughly commercial effort. Scott’s last journey, completed as he lay in a tent dying of cold and hunger, caught the world’s imagination, and a film made in his hono r drew crowds. Shackleton, a onetime British merchant-navy officer who had got to within 100 miles of the South Pole in 1908, started a business before his 1914 voyage to make money from movie and still photography. Frank Hurley, a confident and gifted Australian photographer who knew the Antarctic, was hired to make the images, most of which have never before been published.33．What do we know about the photos taken by Hurley?A．They were made last weekB．They showed undersea sceneriesC．They were found by a cameramanD．They recorded a disastrous adventure34．Who reached the South Pole first according to the text?A．Frank Hurley B．Ernest ShackletonC．Robert Falcon Scott D．Caroline Alexander35．What does Alexander think was the purpose of the 1914 voyage?A．Artistic creation B．Scientific researchC．Money making D．Treasure huntingD(2016-III)Bad news sells. If it bleeds, it leads. No news is good news, and good news is no news. Those are the classic rules for the evening broadcasts and the morning papers. But now that information is being spread and monitored (监控) in different ways, researchers are discovering new rules. By tracking people’s e-mails and online posts, scientists have found that good news can spread faster and farther than disasters and sob stories.“The ‘if it bleeds’ rule works for mass media,” says Jonah Berger, a scholar at the University of Pennsylvania. “They want your eyeballs and don’t care how you’re feeling. But when you share a story with your friends, you care a lot more how they react. You don’t want them to think of you as a Debbie Downer. ”Researchers analyzing word-of-mouth communication—e-mails, Web posts and reviews, face-to-face conversations—found that it tended to be more positive than negative(消极的), but that didn’t necessar ily mean people preferred positive news. Was positive news shared more often simply because people experienced more good things than bad things? To test for that possibility, Dr. Berger looked at how people spread a particular set of news stories: thousand s of articles on The New York Times’ website. He and a Penn colleague analyzed the “most e-mailed” list for six months. One of his first findings was that articles in the science section were much more likely to make the list than non-science articles. He found that science amazed Times’ readers and made them want to share this positive feeling with others.Readers also tended to share articles that were exciting or funny, or that inspired negative feelings like anger or anxiety, but not articles that left them merely sad. They needed to be aroused(激发) one way or the other, and they preferred good news to bad. The more positive an article, the more likely it was to be shared, as Dr. Berger explains in his new book, “Contagious: Why Things Catch On. ”32.

1 高考英语阅读理解推理判断题专练 要求：请认真答题。25分钟内完成。 (A) A typical lion tamer（驯兽师）in people’s mind is an entertainer holding a whip( 鞭) at a chair. The whip gets all of the attention, but it’s mostly for show. In reality, it’ the chair that does the important work. When a lion tamer holds a chair n front of the lion’s face, the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time. With its focus divided, the lion becomes confused and is unsure about what to do next. When faced with so many options, the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the man holding the chair. How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion? How often do you have something you want to achieve (e.g. lose weight, start a business, travel more)—only to end up confused by all of the options in front of you and never make progress? This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best, the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the conflicting information. The end result is that we feel like we can’t focus or that we’re focused on the wrong things, and so we take less action, make less progress, and stay the same when we could be improving. It doesn’t have to be that way. Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face, remember this: All you need to do is focus on one thing. You just need to get started. Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of successful people. If you have somewhere you want to go, something you want to accomplish, someone you want to become…take immediate action. If you’re clear about where you want to go, the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out of the way. 1. Why does the lion tamer use a chair? A. To trick the lion. B. To show off his skills. C. To get ready for a fight. D. To entertain the audience. 2. What is the author’s attitude towards the expert mentioned in Paragraph3? A. Tolerant. B. Doubtful. C. Respectful. D. Supportive. 3. When the world is “ waving a chair in your face”, you’re advised to _____ A. wait for a better chance B. break your old habits C. make a quick decision D. ask for clear guidance (B)

"Well, sir," said the interviewer, "I hope very much to have the honour of interviewing you on your hundredth birthday." The old man looked at the young man closely, and said, "I can't see why you shouldn't. You look fit and healthy to me!" 4. What kind of man would you say the old man was? A. He was ill. B. He was unconscious. C. He was very proud and sure of his health. D. He was very polite to young people （C）
Most rain forests lie close to the equator（赤道）, where the climate is often mild and there are long hours of sunshine. The warmth of the land heats the air above, causing it to rise and tiny drops of water to fall as rain. The rainfall can reach at least 98 inches a year. This wet, warm world with plenty of sunlight is perfect for plants to grow so the trees grow fast with green leaves all the year round. The trees themselves also have an effect on the climate. They gather water from the soil and pass it out into the air through their leaves. The wet air then forms clouds, which hang over the tree tops like smoke. These clouds protect the forest from the daytime heat and nighttime cold of nearby deserts, keeping temperatures fit for plant growth. Rain forests slightly farther away from the equator remain just as warm, but they have a dry season of three months or more when little rain falls. Tree leaves fall during this dry season and new leaves grow when the wet season or monsoon（雨季）begins. Thus these areas are known as the “monsoon forest”.
Another type of rain forest grows on tropical mountains. It is often called the “cloud forest” because clouds often hang over the trees like fog.
The rain forest is the ideal place for the growth of many different trees. Most of them depend on animals to eat their fruits and spread their seeds. When the fruits are eaten, the seeds inside them go undamaged through animals’ stomachs and are passed out in their droppings. The seeds lying on the forest floor then grow into new trees. 5. This passage is most likely to be found in ______ A. a travel guide B. a story book C. a technical report D. a geography book （D）
