Thick, dark, gray clouds had made sure that there was no starlight or moonlight to greet me as I walked out on my porch. Still, I kept the porch light off because I didn’t want to be surrounded by bugs and moths(飞蛾) on this sticky summer evening. I stood there for a while letting my eyes adjust to the lack of light. My dog stood beside me waiting patiently for me to start her walk. It was then, though, that I saw them. First one blink of light at the far end of the meadow was followed by another and then another. I smiled. I recognised them at once as my firefly friends, who always showed up at this time of year.I got so much joy watching them first as a child and then as an adult. They never became dull or boring and they always filled me with delight. When I was little I used to sit in the grass and watch them slowly fly around blinking on and off. I never caught and put one in a jar as some kids did because I was afraid I might kill it and I never wanted to hurt these messengers(信使) of light. Their time on earth was so brief as it was. I tried to enjoy them each time they were here. It always saddened me when they disappeared in the fall and it always made my heart sing when they reappeared the next summer.I think I enjoy these little fireflies so much because I can see that we are like them in a lot of ways. Our time here on earth is brief. Often our light and love are more like blinks rather than a steady shine. Let’s share our light and love while we are here then.4.Why did the author turn off his porch light?A.To avoid some insects.B.To adapt to surroundings.C.To search for his dog.D.To greet special friends.5.What can we know about fireflies?A.They always frightened the author.B.Most kids caught and killed them.C.The author watched them every night.D.They usually brightened the author.6.What does the author mainly convey through the story?A.Value our short life in the world.B.Protect fireflies as well as possible.C.Devote ourselves as much as possible.D.Share as many inspiring stories as possible.7.What can be the best title for the text?A.A Special Summer NightB.Messengers of LightC.Human’s Best FriendsD.Fireflies — Shinning ForeverC(2021·河北唐山二模)A 293-million-mile journey of the NASA Perseverance rover(探测器) to Mars ended successfully on February 18, 2021, with a picture-perfect landing inside the Jezero Crater. The car-sized, six-wheeled rover, nicknamed Percy is the US space agency’s biggest and most advanced explorer to date. Its primary mission is to search for signs of ancient microbial(微生物的) life on Mars.Landing on Mars is extremely tricky. The Red Planet’s gravitational pull causes the approaching spacecraft to go faster to high speeds, while its thin atmosphere—just 1 percent of the Earth’s—does little to help slow it down as it approaches the surface.The scientists had to reduce Percy’s 12,000 mph speed to a safe landing speed of less than five mph—in just six and a half minutes. The target entry angle also had to be precise 12 degrees—any steeper, and the spacecraft would burn up; any flatter, and it would get lost in space. It is no wonder that the final approach is often referred to as the “seven minutes of terror”.Upon attaining a manageable speed, Percy briefly flew over the Martian surface to seek out the perfect landing spot. Its complex map-reading system rapidly scanned the area and matched it with maps in its database to find the best location.The NASA scientists spent the next two months testing Percy’s scientific instruments. Once ready, the rover would begin to carry out its mission.“Perseverance is the smartest robot ever made but confirming that microbial life once existed carries an unusually large burden of proof,” said Lori Glaze, director of NASA’s Planetary ScienceDivision.“While we’ll learn a lot with the great instruments we have aboard the rover, it may very well require the far more well-equipped laboratories and delicate instruments back here on Earth to tell us whether our samples carry evidence that Mars once harboured life.”8.What is the extraordinary challenge for the rover to land on Mars?A.The speed reduction.B.The atmosphere analysis.C.The location search.D.The time management.9.What is paragraph 3 mainly about?A.Ways to find the precise entry angle.B.Consequences of a wrong entry degree.C.Factors to survive “the seven minutes”.D.Reasons for the necessity of speed reducing.10.What does “it” refer to in paragraph 4?A.The spot.B.The area.C.The system.D.The surface.11.What can be inferred from Lori Glaze’s words?A.Instruments aboard the rover are not quite reliable.B.Perseverance is able to collect enough evidence needed.C.Man still has a long way to go to prove life was on Mars.D.Samples of Mars will be returned soon to our labs on Earth.DI told my friend Graham that I often cycled two miles from my house to the town centre but unfortunately there was a big hill on the route. He replied,“You mean fortunately.” He explained that I should be glad of the extra exercise that the hill provided.My attitude to the hill has now changed. I used to complain as I approached it but now I tell myself the following. This hill will exercise my heart and lungs. It will help me to lose weight and get fit. It will mean that I live longer. This hill is my friend. Finally I comfort myself with the thought of all those silly people who pay money to go to a gym and sit on stationary exercise bicycles when I can get the same value for free. I have a smile of satisfaction as I reach the top of the hill.Problems are there to be faced and overcome. We cannot achieve anything with an easy life. Helen Keller was the first deaf and blind person to gain a university degree. Her activism and writing proved inspirational. She wrote,“The character cannot be developed with ease. Only through experiences of suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired and success achieved.”One of the main determinants of success in life is our attitude towards adversity. From time to time we all face hardships, problems, accidents and difficulties. Some are of our own making but many confront us through no fault of our own. While we cannot choose adversity, we can choose our attitude towards it.Douglas Bader was 21 when in 1931 he had both legs cut off following a flying accident. He was determined to fly again and went on to become one of the leading flying aviators in the Battle of Britain with 22 aerial victories over the Germans. He was an inspiration to others during the war. He said,“Don’t listen to anyone who tells you that you can’t do this or that. That’s nonsense. Make up your mind, andyou’ll never use crutches or a stick, and then have a go at everything. Go to school, and join in all the games you can. Go anywhere you want to. But never, never let them persuade you that things are too difficult or impossible.”The biographies of great people are full of examples of how they took steps to overcome the difficulties they faced. The common thread is that they did not become depressed. They chose their attitude. They chose to be positive. They took on the challenge. They won. Nevertheless, there is still the problem of how you change your attitude towards adversity.12.Which of the following is true according to the author of the passage?A.Those who want to achieve success can’t expect to live an easy life.B.Climbing hills on bicycles is the best way to take exercise.C.Going to a gym is greatly beneficial to people’s health.D.People’s attitude towards hardships is the only factor of their success.13.By quoting what Douglas Bader said, the author intends to tell us “” .A.Failure is the mother of successB.A bad workman quarrels with his toolsC.Nothing is difficult to the man who will tryD.If you risk nothing, you will have nothing14.Following this passage, the author will further talk about .A.how his friend helped him to change his attitude towards the challenge he facedB.why it is important to keep optimistic in the face of troubleC.what steps to take to change your attitude towards the difficulties you faceD.what great people have in common15.Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A.Different attitudes towards misfortuneB.Face difficulties with a smileC.Nothing is impossibleD.Life is full of adversityⅡ.七选五(共5小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分)(2021·安徽安庆高三二模)How to Make a Classroom Management PlanStudents need to feel comfortable and safe in order to learn effectively. As an educator, you need to manage your classroom in such a way that you create this sort of environment. A classroom management plan is a strategy you create and carry out. 16 It can help you deal with negative behaviours as well.17 Many classroom management plans begin with the teacher’s philosophy of motivation. Basically, it lays out what you believe about education and how students should learn. You can talk about the environment you want to create and how you plan to create that environment, both physically and emotionally.Set the tone on the first day of class. Start building relationships with your students by being friendly and getting to know each other. 18 So they know in advance how you expect them to behave.19 Get your students’ parents on board by laying out your basic rules. You can also tell them about the systems of rewards and consequences. That way, parents know what to expect throughout the year.Set the example.20 For instance, show you are respectful of each student’s ideas. It will let them know they can trust you.Be consistent.

手惰市安逸阳光实验学校高考英语二轮专题复习阅读能力综合培养训练集(九十六)AThe Colonel ask Ashenden a good many questions and then suggested that he had particular qualifications for the Secret Service. Ashenden knew several European languages and the fact that he was a writer provided excellent cover: on the pretext that he was writing a book he could, without attracting attention, visit any neutral country.It was while they were discussing this point that the Colonel said,"You know you might get material that would be very useful to you in your work. I'll tell you an incident that occurred only recently. Very dramatic.A foreign government minister went down to a Mediterranean resort to fecover from a cold and he had some very important documents with him that he kept in a despatchcase."A day or two after he arrived, he picked up a blonde at some restaurant or other, and he got very friendly with her. He took her back to his hotel, and when he came to himself in the morning the lady and the despatch-case had disappeared. They had one or two drinks up in his room and his theory is that when his back was turned the woman slipped a drug in his glass." "Do you mean to say that happened the other day?"said Ashenden wearily. "The week before last.""Impossible,"cried Ashenden. "Why, we've been putting that incident on the stage for sixty years, we've written it in a thousand novels. Do you mean to say that life has only just caught up with us?""Well, I can vouch for the truth of the story." said the Colonel, "And believe me, the government concerned has been put to no end of trouble by the loss of the documents.""Well sir, if you can't do better than that in the Secret Service," sighed Ashenden, "that I'm afraid that as a source of inspiration to the writer of fiction, it's washout."1.How did the Colonel suggest that Ashenden's being a writer would relate to his work as a spy?a.It would make travelling abroad more possible.b.It would make it easier for him to meet

the national government and lists its powers and activities.The constitution gives Congress the authority to make laws which are necessary for the common defense and the good of the nation.It also gives the federal government the power to deal with national and international problems that involve more than one state.All powers that are not given to the federal government by the constitution are the responsibility of the individual states.The federal government has three branches--the executive,the legislative,and the judicial.The legislative brandch makes the laws,executive branch carries out the laws,and judicial branch interprets the laws.The President heads the executive branch and the Supreme Court heads the judicial branch.The legislative branch includes both houses of Congress--the Senate and the House of Reprsentatives.The constitution limits the powers of each branch and prevents one branch from gaining too much power.For example,Congress can pass a Law the President may sign it.Nevertheless,the Supreme Court can declare the law unconstitutional and nullify it.All government in the United States is "of the people,by the people and for the people".The people elect the President and the members of Congress.However,the President appoints the heads of federal departments and the Supreme Court judges.Every citizen votes in secret.Consequently,no one knows for whom and indevidual votes.The people believe that their government should provide a frameword and order within which they are left free to run their own lives.1.Who makes the laws?a.The

each branch of the federal government because _____.a.the U.S. has fifty statesb.the individual states have their own governmentsc.the federal government has three branchesd.any one branch should not have too much power5.The main point of this passage is ______.a.the three branches of the U.S. governmentb.American governmentc.the Federal ConsititutionD.the people should be left free to run their own lives答案:abcdbC40 Years ago the idea of disabled people doing sport was never heard of.But when the annual games for the disabled were started at Stoke Mandeville,England in 1984 by Sir Ludwig Guttmann,the situation began to change.Sir Ludwig Guttmann,who had been driven to England in 1939 from Nazi Gernamy,had been asked by the British government to set up an injuries centre at Stoke Mandeville Hospital near London.His ideas about treating injuries included sport for the disabled.In the first games just tow teams of injured soldiers took part.The next year,1949,five teams took part.From those beginnings,things have developed fast.Teams now come from abroad to Stoke Mandeville every year.In 1960 the first Olympics for the Disabled were held in Rome,in the same place as the normal Olympic Games,although they are organized separately.In other years Games for the Disabled are still held at Stoke Mandeville.In the 1984 wheelchair Olympic Games,1064 wheelchair athletes from about 40 countries took part.Unfortunately,they were held at Stoke Mandeville and not in Los Angeles,along with the other Olympics.The Games have been a great success in promoting international friendshiop and understanding,and in proving that being disabled does not mean you can't enjoy sport.One small source of disappointment for those who organize and take part in the games,however,has been the unwillingness of the International Olympic Committee to include disabled events at the Olympic Games for the able-bodied.Perhaps a few more years are still needed to convince those fortunate enough not to be disabled that their disabled fellow athlets should not be excluded.1.The first games for the desabled were held _____ after Sir Ludwig Guttmann arrived in England.a.40 yearsb.21 yearsc.10 yearsd.9 years2.Besides Stoke Mandeville,surely the games for the disabled were once held in _____.a.New Yorkb.Londonc.Romed.Los Angeles3.In Paragraph 3,the word "athletes" means _____.a.people who support the gamesb.people who watch the gamesc.people who organize the gamesd.people who compete in the games4.Which of the following statements in NOT true?a.Sir Ludwig Guttmann is an early organizer of the games for the disabled.b.Sir Ludwig Guttmann is an injured soldier.c.Sir Ludwig Guttmann is from Germany.d.Sir Ludwig Guttmann is welcomed by the British government.5.From the passage,we may conclude that the writer is _____.a.one of the organizers of the games for the disabledb.a disabled person who once took part in the gamesc.against holding the games for the disabledd.in favour of holding the games for the disabled答案:cbccbDAnne Whitney, a sophomore at Colorado State University,first had a problem taking tests when she began college."I was always well prepared for my tests.Sometimes I studied for weeks before a test.Yet I would go in to take the test,only to find I could not answer the questions correctly.I would blank out because of nervousness and fear.I couldn't think of the answer.My low grades on the tests did not show what I knew to the teacher." Another student in microbiology and similarexperiences.He said ,"My first chemistry test was very difficult.Then,on the second test,I sat down to take it,and I was so nervous that I was shaking.My hands were moving up and down so quickly that it was hard to hold my pencil.I knew the materical and I knew the answers.Yet I couldn't even writen them down!"These two young students were experiencing something called test anxiety.Because a student worries and it uneasy about a test,his or her mind does not work as well as it usually does.The student can't write or think clearly because of the extreme tension and nervousness.Although poor grades are often a result of poor study habits,sometimes test anxiety causes the low grades.Recently,test anxiety had been recognized as a real problem,not just an excuse or a false explanation of lazy students.Special university counseling courses try to help students.In these courses,counselors try to help students by teaching them how to manage test anxiety.At some universities,students take tests to measure their anxiety.If the tests show their anxiety is high, the students can take short courses to help them deal with their tension.These courses teach students how to relax their bodies.Students are trained to become calm in bery tense situations.By controlling their nervousness,they can let their minds work at ease .Learned information then comes out without difficulty on a test.An expert at the University of California explains."With almost all students, relaxation and less stress are felt after taking out program.Most of then experience better control during their tests. Almost all have some improvement.With some,the improvement is very great."1.To "blank out" is probably______.a.to be like a blanketb.to be sure of an answerc.to be unable to think clearlyd.to show knowledge to the teacher2.Poor grades are usually the result of _______.a.poor hygienic habitszinessck of sleepd.inability to form good study habits3.Test anxiety has been recognized as _______.a.an excuse for lazinessb.the result of poor habitsc.a real problemd.something that can't be changed4.To deal with this problem,students say they want to ______.a.take a short course on anxietyb.read about anxietyc.be able to manage or understand their anxietyd.take test to prove they are not anxiety5.A University of California counselor said_______.a.all students could overcome the anxiety after taking a special test anxiety programb.almost all students felt less stress after taking a University of California counseling coursec.students found it difficult to improve even though they had taken a special test anxiety coursed.students found it easy to relax as soon as they extered a University of California counseling course答案:cdcab。

Although dieters may really show weight loss from a fad diet, they will almost certainly get back the weight if their usual eating habits (习惯) remain unchanged. Moreover, fad diets continuously call for special products of questionable value or for “health foods” that may cost twice as much as supermarket(超市) foods. Worse yet, certain fad diets don't include nutrients(营养)good for health.

These days are to show love and respect for parents. They raise their children and educate them to be responsible citizens. They give love and care. These two days offer an opportunity to think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers. More mothers now work outside the home and more fathers must help with childcare.These two special days are celebrated in many different ways. On mother’s Day, people wear carnations. A red one symbolizes a living mother. A white one shows that the mother is dead. Many people attend religious services to honor parents. It’salso a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery(grave). On these days families get together at home as well as in restaurants. They often have outdoor barbecue for Father’s Day. These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.Another tradition is to give cards and gifts. Children make them in school. Many people make their own presents. These are more valued than those bought in stores. It’s not the value of the gift that is important, but “the thought that counts”. Greeting card stores, florists, candy makers, bakers, phone companies and other stores do lots of business during these holidays.51.Which is NOT a reason for children to show love and respect for parents?A. Parents bring up children.B. Parents give love and care to childrenC. Parents educate children to be good persons.D. Parents pass away before children grow up.52.What do you know from the passage?A.

1Sometimes,the simplest ideas are the best. For example,to absorb heat from the sun to heat water, you need large, flat,black surfaces. One way to do that is to build those surfaces specially, on the roofs of buildings. But why go to all that trouble when cities are full of black surfaces already, in the form of asphalt (柏油) roads?Ten years ago, this thought came into the mind of Arian de Bondt, a Dutch engineer. He finally persuaded his boss to follow it up. The result is that their building is now heated in winter and cooled in summer by a system that relies on the surface of the road outside.The heat collector is a system of connected water pipes.Most of them run from one side of the street to the other, just under the asphalt road. Some, however, dive deep into the ground. When the street surface gets hot in summer, water pumped through the pipes picks up this heat and takes it underground through one of the diving pipes. At a depth of 100 metres lies a natural aquifer (蓄水层) into which several heat exchangers (交换器) have been built. The hot water from the street runs through these exchangers, warming the groundwater, before returning to the surface through another pipe. The aquifer is thus used as a heat store.In winter, the working system is changed slightly. Water is pumped through the heat exchangers to pick up the heat stored during summer. This water goes into the building and is used to warm the place up. After performing that task, it is pumped under the asphalt and its remaining heat keeps the road free of snow and ice.【文章大意概括】文章介绍了如何样依靠别处的柏油马路表面在冬天给楼房供暖,在夏天给楼房降温。

He wanted to go about five miles past our home, but my husband still told him to 32 . My husband chatted with him, drove 33 our house and took him home for his Christmas Eve. 34 turned out that this poor man was what we now 35 as a “slow learner” and the only job he could get to 36 him and his elderly mother was at the bakery near where my husband worked.

The story said that whena baby was born, a new master was born. The parents of that baby would become the servants. The question is: Why? Based on my observation, this phenomenon is true. Most parents who don't pay much attention to their kids have difficulties with their kids' attitude.I'll make a comparison of how two families raise their children. The first one is a family with three children. Both mother and father never say "No" to their children's demands. As a result, all of their children became stubborn and won't listen to their parents’ words, "We can't."The second family educated their children strictly from one year old to high school. The parents never approved or agreed directly to give their children what they wanted. They always postponed one or two days, even if they could afford it. Due to the way their parents educated them, these children understood that if they wanted something, they had to wait or they had to make an effort first. As a result, all the kids from the second family successfully graduated from university on time.In my opinion, if we want to be successful parents and raise our children well, wehave to start disciplining them when they are toddlers but not wait until they become teenagers.46. Why did the writer give two different stories in this passage?A. To help prove his opinion about raising a child.B. To list different ways that parents may take.C. To criticize some parents’ foolish action.D. To prove that his way of education is right.47. What does the underlined word “postponed” in the third paragraph mean?A. Carried out at once.B. Gave up.C. Put off.D. Made a decision.48. In the writer’s opinion, which of the following abo ut raising a child is TRUE?A. Children should be respected once they were born.B. Parents should educate their children as early as possible.C. It is right time to educate their children when they are teenagers.D. Children should be helped whenever they make mistakes.B篇Malaysia is a country of exciting beauty, with a tropical(热带的)climate.

高考英语复习课堂限时强化训练完形填空(五)For many people today, reading is no longer relaxation. To keep up their work they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazines: a never-ending flood of words. In 1 a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend 2 can mean the difference between success and failure. Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are 3 readers. Most of us develop poor reading 4 at an early age, and never get over them. The main deficiency 5 in the actual stuff of language itself-words. Taken individually, words have 6 meaning until they are strung together into phrased, sentences and paragraphs. 7 , however, the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He laboriously reads one word at a time, often regressing to 8 words or passages. Regression, the tendency to look back over 9 you have just read, is a common bad habit in reading. Another habit which 10 down the speed of reading is vocalization—sounding each word either orally or mentally as 11 reads.To overcome these bad habits, some reading clinics use a device called an 12 , which moves a bar (or curtain) down the page at a predetermined speed. The bar is set at a slightly faster rate 13 the reader finds comfortable, in order to “stretch”him.The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, 14 word-by-word reading, regression and subvocalization, practically impossible. At first 15 is sacrificed for speed. But when you learn to read ideas and concepts, you will not only read faster, 16 your comprehension will improve. Many people have found 17 reading skill drastically improved after some training. 18 Charlce Au, a business manager, for instance, his reading rate was a reasonably good 172 words a minute 19 the training, now it is an excellent 1,378 words a minute.

Apes all belong to the hot countries of the world—tropical Africa and South—east Asia.The gorilla is the largest of the apes. He is as tall as six feet when standing upright. Many people think that gorillas are very fierce. They are often described as standing upright like a man, beating their fists and roaring. In their home, in the forests of Central Africa, however, they are not at all like this, They are peaceful animals and never use their great strength unless attacked. Even then, they retreat if they can.Gorillas have black faces and long, black, hairy coats. They feed during the day on plants and fruit. At night the old male often sleeps on the ground at the foot of a tree, while the others each make a sleeping platform in the tree bending the leafy branches.
