They analyzed families with sisters and brothers, large and small age gaps and different numbers of siblings. But no matter how they spliced the data, they could find no association of birth order with any personality characteristic.

Whenthe world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit(联系)groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of eachother. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just fiveto ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and theirlanguages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade,industrialisation,the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, allhave caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish andChinese are increasingly taking over.At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. The distribution of these languages ishugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages, often spoken by many people, while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 languages;the Americas about 1,000;Africa 2,400;and Asia and the Pacific perhaps3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number(中位数) of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the world’s languages are spoken byfewer people than that.Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction(消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left.Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon(eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico(150), Lipan Apache in the United States(two or three) or Wadjigu inAustralia(one, with a question-mark):none of these seems to have much chance of survival.28.What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times?A.They developed very fast.B.They were large in number.C.They had similar patterns.D.They were closely connected.29.Which of the following best explains“ dominant” underlined in paragraph 2?plex.B.Advanced.C.Powerful.D.Modern.30.How many languages are spoken by less than 6,000 people at present?A.About 6,800.B.About 3,400.C.About 2,400.D.About 1,200.31.What is the main idea of the text?A.New languages will be created.B.People ’s lifestyle s are reflected in languages.C.Human development results in fewer languages.D.Geography determines language evolution.D(2018 课标全国Ⅰ ,D)We may think we ’re a culture that gets rid of our worn technology at the first sight ofsomething 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 colleaguesat the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York tracked the environmental costs for eachproduct 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 defined1992. Digital cameras arrived on the scene in 1997. And MP3 players, smartphones, and LCD TVsentered 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 s uddenly one day, you havea 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 andbox TVs with cathode ray tubes are the worst devices with their energy consumption andcontribution to greenhouse gas emissions( 排放 ) more than doubling during the 1992 to 2007window.So what’s the soluti on( 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 thatserve more than one function, such as a tablet for word processing and TV viewing. They foundthat 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.第二节 ( 共 5 小题 ; 每小题 2 分 , 满分 10 分 )(2017 课标全国Ⅲ )根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

He was the man who inspired the Beat Generation, and nearly half a century after his death Jack Kerouac is still receiving grateful letters from his fans. Most letters are sent in the post to his last home in St Petersburg, Florida, and the mail box in the front yard is full to bursting. But others aredelivered by hand, pushed under the front door or left on the doorstep.They usually thank the author of On the Road for inspiring them to travel and be independent. “You remind me to stay true to who yo u are and to encourage a sense of adventure in all of us.” reads one letter, handwrittenby “Cindy” on paper covered with pictures of butterflies and flowers. She adds, “I hope you’re writing, liberated and drinking a glass of wine.”Another, signed “Friend of Jack”, reads, “I prefer to think of myself as a free spirit and a person who follows a path of her own choosing. You have always been my inspiration.”His home, where he was living with his mother Gabrielle and his wife Stella, has become a destination for hundreds of fans every year.Kerouac rocketed to fame at the age of 35, with the publication of On the Road in 1957.But after becoming a symbol and leader of the alternative lifestyle movement, he struggled with that fame and claimed that he only wanted people to read his books.Kerouac died just 12 years after On the Road was published. He wassuffering from liver problem, following years of heavy drinking largelybrought on by his love-hate relationship with fame.Kerouac, the creator of vivid characters such as Sal Paradise and Dean Moriarty, died at a St Petersburg hospital in 1969, at the age of 47.1. Why do people still write to Kerouac after his death?A. His wife and mother still live in his home.B. They are also suffering from serious illness.C.

He was scolded because he promoted an alternative lifestyle.2. I have just returned from a visit to my landlord, Mr. Heathcliff. I am delighted with the house I am renting from him, which suits me perfectly.Mr. Heathcliff is my only neighbour, and I think his character is similar to mine. He does not like people either.When I introduced myself, he said nothing, but frowned, and did not encourage me to enter. After a while, however, he decided to invite me in.“Joseph!” he called. Joseph was an old servant. He looked crossly up at me as he took my horse. “ God help us! A visitor! ” he whispered to himself. Perhaps there were no other servants, I thought. And it seemed that Heathcliff hardly ever received guests.His house is called Wuthering Heights. The name means “a windswept house ona hill”, and it is a very good description. The trees around the house are bent by the north wind, which blows fiercely every day of the year. Fortunately, the house is strongly built, and is not damaged even by the worst winter storms.Mr. Heathcliff and I entered the huge main room. We sat down by the fire, in silence.“Joseph!” shouted Mr. Heathcliff. No answer came from the cellar, so he dived down there, leaving me alone with several rather fierce-looking dogs. Suddenly one of them jumped angrily up at me, and in a moment all the others were attacking me.“Help! Mr. Heathcliff! Help!” I shouted. My landlord was nowhere to be seen, but luckily a woman, who might be the housekeeper, rushed into the room tocalm the dogs.“What is the matter?” Mr. Heathcliff asked me rudely, as he finally entered the room, accompanied by his man-servant.“Your dogs, sir!” I replied. “You shouldn’t leave a s tranger with them. They’re dangerous.”“Come, come, Mr. Lockwood. Have some wine. We don’t often have strangers here. I’m afraid neither I nor my dogs are used to receiving them.” I could not feel offended after this, and accepted the wine. We sat drinking and talking together for a while. I suggested visiting him tomorrow. He did not seem eager to see me again, but I shall go anyway. He seems a fascinating man.1. In which order should the following events be arranged?a. Mr. Lockwood introduced himself to his landlord.b. Mr. Lockwood and Mr. Heathcliff sat drinking and talking together.c. Mr. Heathcliff invited Mr. Lockwood into the house.d.

What was the writer’s impression of Mr. Heathcliff?A. He was rich but foolish.B. He was rude but interesting.C. He was handsome but boring.D. He was strange but friendly.3. Young people in the United States do not have a strong understanding of the world and their place in it.Two US-based groups, the Council on Foreign Relations and the National Geographic Society, conducted an online survey last year. They wanted to know what young people in American colleges knew about geography, U.S. foreign policy, recent international events, and economics.The survey was given to over 1,200 Americans between the ages of 18 and 26years. All of them presently attending, or having previously graduated from, a 2- or 4-year college or university.The average test score, out of 75 total possible answers, was 55 percent. The study identifies a few important problems. For example, only 30 percent knew that the only part of the U.S. government that can declare war is Congress. Only 60% of those taking the survey could identify Brazil on a world map.Part of the problem, argue the organizers of the survey, is the Internet.They say it is becoming harder to find high-quality information about world events amongst all the fake news and trivia which swamp the web. Forty-three percent of those questioned said they read about the news on Facebook.Another problem is that most college courses do not require students to learn about international issues. If such information is not required, Richard Haass from the Council on Foreign Relations said, then the United States could have leaders like Gary Johnson. He was a recent presidential candidate who did not know about the Syrian city of Aleppo when a reporter asked him about it.The survey results were not all bad. The young people also demonstrated agood understanding of climate change and renewable energy. And the majority of them said that international issues were becoming more important to them.Haass says these findings suggest the need to find ways to get goodinformation to students, both in school and online. To help, the Council on Foreign Relations is creating a new program called CFR Campus, designed tohelp build knowledge about global issues.1. What do we know about the survey?A. The participants were all recent university graduates.B. It was an online survey conducted by two US universities.C. It was given to over 1,200 American people aged from 18 to 26.D. It aimed to find out what the young people know about America.2. What’s one reason survey organizers give for young people’s lack of knowledge?A. The poor quality of the US university system.B. Young people’s unwillingness to travel abroad.C. The sources from which they get their information.D. Their lack of interest in knowing more about the world.3. What topic did the young Americans understand best according to the survey?A. Government organizations.B. Geographic information.C. Foreign relations.D. Environmental matters.4. In which column of a newspaper could we find this article?A. Economics.B. Education.C. National Politics.D. Entertainment.4. You can’t make a call or send a text on your mobile phone in the US townof Green Bank, West Virginia. Wireless Internet is outlawed, as is Bluetooth. As you approach the tiny town on a two-lane road that snakes through the mountains, your mobile phone signal drops out, and your radio stops working. The rusted pay phone on the north side of town is the only way for a visitorto reach the rest of the world. It’s a pre-modern place by design, lacking of the latest technologies that define life today.The reason for the town’s empty airwaves is apparent the moment you arrive. It’s the Robert C. Byrd telescope, also known as the GBT, a shiny white, 147-metre-tall satellite dish. It’s the largest of i ts kind in the world and oneof nine in Green Bank, all of them government owned and operated by theNational Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO).You don’t look through these kinds of telescopes. They’re radio telescopes, so instead of looking for distant stars, they listen for them. There’s a long line of astronomers all over the world who want to use the telescope which is so sensitive that it could hear a single snowflake hitting the ground 1,000 miles away.Such a sensitive listening tool needs total technological silence to operate, so in 1958 the US government created a National Radio Quiet Zone, a 33,000 km2 area covering Green Bank where, to this day, electronic and radio signalsare forbidden every hour of every day.People who live within a 15km of the Green Bank telescope are allowed to use landline telephones, wired Internet and cable televisions, but microwave ovens, wireless Internet and radios are forbidden. You can have a mobile phone, but you won’t get a signal.Because of how much its way of life varies from the rest of America, Green Bank seems to be a somewhat isolated (隔绝), even alien place. For locals, the technology ban is annoying. For others who come to Green Bank for a littlerest and relaxation, the town has become a refuge .1. What do we know about the town of Green Bank from Paragraph 1?A. It’s located at the base of a large mountain.B. It is geographically and technologically isolated.C. Its telecommunications are affected by its geography.D. Many people live in the town and its surrounding areas.2. How does the GBT work?A. It traps light waves in its huge dish.B. It stops all electronic and radio signals.C. It receives pictures from space satellites.D. It listens for and receives noises from space.3. What equipment are locals of the Green Bank allowed to use?A. Cable TV, wired Internet and radio.B. Landline phones, wired Internet and cable TV.C. Public phones, wireless Internet and mobile phones.D. Landline phones, microwave ovens and cable internet.4. What does the underlined word “refuge” in the last paragraph most probably mean?A. A place of escape.B. A source of confusion.C. An area of interest.D. A sign of danger.二、七选五5. You wait in a long queue in the su permarket, but when it’s finally your turn to pay, you can’t find enough money in your purse. 1. While you are bending down to look for them, the people behind you are getting angry. The cashier is pounding her fingers impatiently on the counter.2. But the good news is: scientists have thought of a way to make queues shorter and paying for things easier. They have invented an eye scanner. Inthe future, when you pay for food at the supermarket, an eye scanner will take a picture of your eyes and a computer will identify you. 3.Students at Venerable Bede School, England, have already got an eye scannerin their cafeteria. After the students choose the food they want, the scanner looks for their information and sends a list of the food to their parents. 4. Also, parents pay for the meals at the end of the week, so the students don’t have to take money to school and wait in long queues to pay for their lunch.If all shops had eye scanners, shopping would be easier. 5. So, it seemsthat it will be a while before most of us get our eyes scanned at the cashier.A. Sometimes shopping can be unpleasant.B. You take out your credit cards, but they fall on the floor.C. If students aren’t eating a healthy diet, their parents will know.D. Stores are trying several new ways to get shoppers to spend more.E. Parents are urging the government to introduce better security safeguards.F. However, eye scanners are very expensive and many shops can’t afford them.G.

ASports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature.However,whether you are on the mountains,in the waves,or on the grassland,you should be aware that your sport of choice might have great influence on the environment.Some sports are resource-hungry.Golf,as you may know,eats up not only large areas of countryside,but also tons of water.Besides,all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses(球场)in good condition.This causes major environmental effects.For example,in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain,golf is often held responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas.There are many environment-friendly sports.Power walking is one of them that you could take up today.You don′t need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes；and you don′t have to worry about resources and your purse.Simple and free,power walking can also keep youfit.If you walk regularly,it will be good for your heart and bones.Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious,sleep well and have better weight control.Whatever sport you take up,you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials.But the final goal should be“green gyms”.They RYe better replacements for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers.

Burns, cuts and other damage to the outer part of the skin will be replaced in time by new one, which bears a reproduction of the original pattern. 37Some criminals make use of this fact to remove their own finger-prints but this is a dangerous and rare step to take.Finger-prints can be made very easily with printer′s ink. They can be recorded easily. 38 Because of the simplicity and economy of this system, finger-prints have often been used as amethod of solving criminal case. A suspected man may deny a charge but this may be in vain.39 When a suspect leaves finger-prints behind at the scene of a crime, they are difficult to detect(察觉) with the naked eye. 40 Some of the marks found are incomplete but identification is possible if a print of a quarter of an inch square can be obtained.A.Special techniques are used to “develop” them.B.A fingerprint is an impression of the friction ridges of all part of the finger.C.It is only when the inner skin is injured that the arrangement will be destroyed.D.With special methods, identification can be achieved successfully within a short time.E. A latent(潜在的) print is the chance reproduction of the friction ridges deposited on the surface of an item.F. His finger-prints can prove who he is even if his appearance has been changed by age or accident.G. Every human being has a unique arrangement of the skin on his fingers and this arrangement is unchangeable.【答案】36-40 GCDFA第三部分英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）第一节完形填空（共20小题；每题1.5分，共30分）I met Chandra Rekha Shrestha, a visually damaged girl, on the way to Shanti Nagar.

【全国卷】2019年高考英语复习考前冲刺模拟卷二附答案解析
【全国卷】2019年高考英语复习考前冲刺模拟卷二第二部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节 (共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A．Summer comes and we start thinking of ways to increase liquid intake. Water-rich fruits like watermelon become a basic part of your diet during summer. These fruits can certainly help to stop our thirst. Watermelons are not only nutritious but also help us beat the summer heat. However, can watermelons be shared with our pet dog?There is absolutely no harm in giving a watermelon to your pet. Watermelons are excellent sources of vitamins A and C as well as minerals. Moreover, they help to stop your pet’s thirst as they contain more than 70% water.Before sharing a watermelon with your dog, make sure that you do not feed beyond his ability to digest. The amount you feed will vary depending upon how big your dog is. For instance, if you have a small breed dog, giving a small slice is enough. However, an adult Golden Retriever certainly has the ability to consume more slices.Also, make sure that you remove the seeds before feeding watermelon slices to your dog. This is because dogs find the seeds very difficult to digest; hence their consumption is likely to cause stomach upset. Moreover, the seeds can actually be harmful to your dog as the seeds can be poisonous to your dog when eaten too much. Even taking a few may cause stomach upset in some dogs. So it is best to avoid feeding the seeds to your pet.As far as offering the skin of the watermelon is concerned, you should avoid it. While the rind(外皮) contains a great number of nutrients, if not chewed properly and swallowed, it can get stuck in the stomach and cause a serious digestive problem in dogs.On the whole , whi le watermelon is not bad for a dog’s health, feeding it in small portions without the skin and the seeds is necessary to keep digestive issues at bay.21. Which of the following isn’t the reason why watermelons can be shared withthe pet?A. They are rich in vitamins.B. They contain superior minerals.C. They can provide enough water.D. They can strengthen the digestivesystem.【答案】：D22. What decides the amount of the watermelon you share with a pet?A. They type of a pet.B. The size of a pet.C. The ripeness of a watermelon.D. The tas te of a watermelon.【答案】：B【解析】：本题【答案】主要在文章第三段。

Whenthe world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit(联系)groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of eachother. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just fiveto ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and theirlanguages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade,industrialisation,the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, allhave caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish andChinese are increasingly taking over.At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. The distribution of these languages ishugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages, often spoken by many people, while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 languages;the Americas about 1,000;Africa 2,400;and Asia and the Pacific perhaps3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number(中位数) of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the world’s languages are spoken byfewer people than that.Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction(消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left.Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon(eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico(150), Lipan Apache in the United States(two or three) or Wadjigu inAustralia(one, with a question-mark):none of these seems to have much chance of survival.28.What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times?A.They developed very fast.B.They were large in number.C.They had similar patterns.D.They were closely connected.29.Which of the following best explains“ dominant” underlined in paragraph 2?plex.B.Advanced.C.Powerful.D.Modern.30.How many languages are spoken by less than 6,000 people at present?A.About 6,800.B.About 3,400.C.About 2,400.D.About 1,200.31.What is the main idea of the text?A.New languages will be created.B.People ’s lifestyle s are reflected in languages.C.Human development results in fewer languages.D.Geography determines language evolution.D(2018 课标全国Ⅰ ,D)We may think we ’re a culture that gets rid of our worn technology at the first sight ofsomething 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 colleaguesat the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York tracked the environmental costs for eachproduct 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 early1990s.Devices were grouped by generation. Desktop computers, basic mobile phones, and box-set TVs defined1992. Digital cameras arrived on the scene in 1997. And MP3 players, smartphones, and LCD TVsentered 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 s uddenly one day, you havea TV in every room of the house, ”said one researcher.The average number of electronic devices rose from four per household in1992 to13 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 andbox TVs with cathode ray tubes are the worst devices with their energy consumption andcontribution to greenhouse gas emissions(排放 ) more than doubling during the 1992 to 2007window.So what’s the soluti on( 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 thatserve more than one function, such as a tablet for word processing and TV viewing. They foundthat 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.第二节 ( 共 5 小题 ; 每小题 2 分 , 满分 10 分 )(2017 课标全国Ⅲ )根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
2019年全国统一高考英语试卷和答案解析(Ⅱ卷)
2019年全国统一高考英语试卷（Ⅱ卷）AMy Favourite BooksJo Usmar is a writer for Cosmopolitan and co-author of the This Book Will series of lifestyle books. Here she picks her top reads.MatildaRoald DahlI once wrote a paper on the influence of fairy tales on Roald Dahl's writing and it gave me a new appreciation for his strange and delightful words. Matilda's battles with her cruel parents and the bossy headmistress, Miss Trunchbull, are equally funny and frightening, but they're also aspirational.After DarkHaruki MurakamiIt's about two sisters—Eri, a model who either won't or can't stop sleeping, and Mari, a young student. In trying to connect to her sister. Mari starts changing her life and discovers a world of diverse "night people" who are hiding secrets.Gone GirlGillian FynnThere was a bit of me that didn't want to love this when everyone else on the planet did but the horror story is brilliant. There's tension and anxiety from the beginning as Nick and Amy battle for your trust. It's a real whodunit and the frustration when you realize what's going on is horribly enjoyable.The StandStephen KingThis is an excellent fantasy novel from one of the best storytellers around. After a serious flu outbreak wipes out 99.4% of the world's population, a battle unfolds between good and evil among those let. Randall Flagg is one of the scariest characters ever.1. Who does "I" refer to in the text?A. Stephen King.B. Gillian Flynn.C. Jo Usmar.D. Roald Dahl2. Which of the following tells about Mari and Eri?A. Cosmopolitan.B. Matilda.C. After Dark.D. The Stand.3. What kind of book is Gone Girl?A. A folk tale.B. A biography.C. A love story.D. A horror story.B"You can use me as a last resort(选择), and if nobody else volunteers, then I will do it." This was an actual reply from a parent after I put out a request for volunteers for my kids' lacrosse(长曲棍球) club.I guess that there's probably some demanding work schedule, or social anxiety around stepping up to help for an unknown sport. She may just need a little persuading. So I try again and tug at the heartstrings mention the single parent with four kids running the show and I talk about the dad coaching a team that his kids aren't even on... At this point the unwilling parent speaks up, "Alright. Yes, I'll do it."I'm secretly relieved because I know there's real power in sharing volunteer responsibilities among many. The unwilling parent organizes the meal schedule, sends out emails, and collects money for end—of—season gifts. Somewhere along the way, the same parent ends up becoming an invaluable member of the team. The coach is able to focus on the kids while the other parents are relieved to be off the hook for another season. Handing out sliced oranges to bloodthirsty kids can be as exciting as watching your own kid score a goal.Still, most of us volunteers breathe a sigh of relief when the season comes to a close. That relief is coupled with a deep understanding of why the same people keep coming back for more: Connecting to the community as you freely give your time, money, skills, or services provides a real joy. Volunteering just feels so good.In that sense, I'm pretty sure volunteering is more of a selfish act than I'd freely like to admit. However, if others benefit in the process, and I get some reward too, does it really matter where my motivation lies?4. What can we infer about the parent from her reply in paragraph 1?A. She knows little about the club.B. She isn't good at sports.C. She just doesn't want to volunteer.D. She's unable to meet her schedule.5. What does the underlined phrase "tug at the heartstrings” in paragraph 2 mean?A. Encourage team workB. Appeal to feelingsC. Promote good deedsD. Provide advice6. What can we learn about the parent from paragraph 3?A. She gets interested in lacrosse.B. She is proud of her kids.C. She'll work for another season.D. She becomes a good helper.7. Why does the author like doing volunteer work?A. It gives her a sense of dutyB. It makes her very happy.C. It enables her to work hardD. it brings her material rewardsCMarian Bechtel sits at West Palm Beach's Bar Louie counter by herself, quietly reading her e-book as she waits for her salad. What is she reading? None of your business! Lunch is Bechtel's "me" time. And like more Americans, she's not alone.A new report found 46 percent of meals are eaten alone in America. More than half(53 percent) have breakfast alone and nearly half (46 percent) have lunch by themselves. Only at dinnertime are we eating together anymore, 74 percent, according to statistics from the report."I prefer to go out and be out. Alone, but together, you know?" Bechtel said, looking up from her book. Bechtel, who works in downtown West Palm Beach, has lunch with coworkers sometimes, but like many of us, too often works through lunch at her desk. A lunchtime escape allows her to keep a boss from tapping her on the shoulder. She returns to work feeling energized. "Today, I just wanted some time to myself," she said.Just two seats over, Andrew Mazoleny, a local videographer, is finishing his lunch at the bar. He likes that he can sit and check his phone in peace or chat up the barkeeper with whom he's on a first-name basis if he wants to have a little interaction(交流). "I reflect on how my day's gone and think about the rest of the week," he said. "It's a chance for self-reflection, you return to work recharged and with a plan."That freedom to choose is one reason more people like to eat alone. There was a time when people may have felt awkward about asking for a table for one, but those days are over. Now, we have our smartphones to keep us company at the table. "It doesn't feel as alone as it may have before all the advances in technology," said Laurie Demerit, whose company provided the statistics for the report.8. What are the statistics in paragraph 2 about?A. Food variety.B. Eating habits.C. Table manners.D. Restaurant service.9. Why does Bechtel prefer to go out for lunch?A. To meet with her coworkers.B. To catch up with her work.C. To have some time on her own.D. To collect data for her report.10. What do we know about Mazoleny?A. He makes videos for the bar.B. He's fond of the food at the bar.C. He interviews customers at the bar.D. He's familiar with the barkeeper.11. What is the text mainly about?A. The trend of having meals alone.B. The importance of self-reflection.C. The stress from working overtime.D. The advantage of wireless technology.DBacteria are an annoying problem for astronauts. The microorganisms(微生物) from our bodies grow uncontrollably on surfaces of the International Space Station, so astronauts spend hours cleaning them up each week. How is NASA overcoming this very tiny big problem? It's turning to a bunch of high school kids. But not just any kids. It is depending on NASA HUNCH high school class, like the one science teachers Gene Gordon and Donna Himmelberg lead at Fairport High School in Fairport, New York.HUNCH is designed to connect high school classrooms with NASA engineers. For the past two years, Gordon's students have been studying ways to kill bacteria in zero gravity, and they think they're close to a solution(解决方案). "We don't give the students any breaks. They have to do it just like NASA engineers," says Florence Gold, a project manager."There are no tests," Gordon says, "There is no graded homework. There almost are no grades, other than'Are you working towards your goal?' Basically, it's'I've got to produce this product and then, at the end of year, present it to NASA.'Engineers come and really do an in-person review, and...it's not a very nice thing at time. It's a hard business review of your product."Gordon says the HUNCH program has an impact(影响) on college admissions and practical life skills. "These kids are so absorbed in their studies that I just sit back.I don't teach." And that annoying bacteria? Gordon says his students are emailing daily with NASA engineers about the problem, readying a workable solution to test in space.12. What do we know about the bacteria in the International Space Station?A. They are hard to get rid of.B. They lead to air pollution.C. They appear different forms.D. They damage the instruments.13. What is the purpose of the HUNCH program?A. To strengthen teacher-student relationships.B. To sharpen students' communication skills.C. To allow students to experience zero gravity.D. To link space technology with school education.14. What do the NASA engineers do for the students in the program?A. Check their product.B. Guide project designs.C. Adjust work schedules.D. Grade their homework.15. What is the best title for the text?A. NASA: The Home of AstronautsB. Space: The Final Homework FrontierC. Nature: An Outdoor ClassroomD. HUNCH: A College Admission ReformImagine a child standing on a diving board four feet high and asking himself the question: "Should I jump?" This is what motivation or the lack of it can do. Motivation and goal setting are the two sides of same coin. (1) Like the child on the diving board, you will stay undecided.(2) More than that, how should you stay motivated to achieve the goal? First, you need to evaluate yourself, your values your strengths, your weaknesses, your achievements, your desires, etc. Only then should you set your goals.You also need to judge the quality and depth of your motivation. This is quite important, because it is directly related to your commitment. There are times when your heart is not in your work. (3) So, slow down and think what you really want to do at that moment. Clarity(清晰) of thoughts can help you move forward.Another way of setting realistic goals is to analyze your short and long term objectives, keeping in mind your beliefs, values and strengths. Remember that goals are flexible. (4) They also need to be measurable. You must keep these points in mind while setting your goals.Your personal circumstances are equally important. For example, you may want to be a Pilot but can't become one because your eyesight is not goodenough. (5) You should reassess your goals, and motivate yourself to set a fresh goal.You will surely need to overcome some difficulties, some planned, but most unplanned. You cannot overcome them without ample motivation. Make sure that you plan for these difficulties at the time of setting your goals.A. This can affect your work.B. So how should you motivate yourself?C. However, this should not discourage you.D. So why should we try to set specific goals?E. They can change according to circumstances.F. Motivation is what you need most to do a good job.G. Without motivation you can neither set a goal nor reach it.16. A. A B. B C. C D. D E. EF. FG. G17. A. A B. B C. C D. D E. EF. FG. G18. A. A B.
