Their mothers,watch them closely for fear that the children will fall off their bikes. The children are ready to learn how to ride.Rachel Varn still remembers how she felt riding a bicycle for the first time. Now her job is helping children experience that moment. Rachel Varn left her job of selling bicycles to become a trainer for bicycle riding last year.She founded Pedal Power Kids to teach bicycle education.Before starting a ride, she teaches the children how to make sure the bicycles are in good condition for safe use. She calls it “the ABC quick check. ” As is for air,she explains.“We have to check our tires before we ride.” We want to make sure our brakes work before we find ourselves on the top of a hill about to go down.And C is for chain.She says the chain must be clean.The rest of the training is more fun. The children learn riding skills,from balance and pedaling to turning,starting and stopping.And they learn to keep their eyes up and look ahead while riding. Varn says many children struggle to do this, They look down at the pedals (踏板)instead. She adds, “Obviously that doesn't allow them to see wha's going on around them,and it also doesn't allow them to turn properly.”Yarn says watching where you are going helps you turn easier.Learning to ride a bicycle can open a whole new world to children. It gives them asense of success and freedom. They become more sensitive to their surroundings and better able to make safe,smart decisions going from one place to another.Varn’s goal is to get more children on two wheels. Since starting Pedal Power Kids last year,Varn has helped around 250 new riders.24. How do the mothers feel when the children are ready to learn riding?A. Confident.B.Nervous.C. Excited.D.Relaxed.25. What is “the ABC quick check” aimed to do?A.To check if bikes are in safe condition for use.B.To check if the tires are safe for them to use.C. To make sure the brakes work.D. To check whether the chain is clean.26. What will make it easier to turn the corner when riding a bike?A.Stopping to look around.B.Looking down at the pedals.C.Looking where they are going.D.Keeping their eyes up and looking up.27. What benefit can riding a bicycle bring according to the passage?A. It opens a new world to the mothers.B. It gives children a sense of achievement.C. It helps children stay away from video games.D. It makes children familiar with the surrounding.3.(8分)CHuman demands for natural resources have doubled in less than 50 years and are now beyond what the earth can provide, a report warned. If humans carry on like this, we will need two earths by 2030. The population of wildlife has fallen by 60% in thirty years.The report said British people are consuming (消耗) far more than the earth can deal with. If everyone lived such a lifestyle, humans would need 2.75 planets to survive. People are now living lifestyles which would require 1.5 planets, though there are great differences between rich and poor nations.Researchers studied the global change in land use and water consumption. The UK comes 31st in a list of countries based one “ecological footprint (生态足迹)” that measures howmuch land and sea each person needs to produce the resources they consume and to absorb (吸收) the wastes. The UK has fallen down from 15th place in the last report two years ago to 3lst place, but the WWF believes it is an increas e in other countries’ efforts rather than a reduction in the UK’s use of resources.Ireland has the 10th highest ecological footprint, while the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Denmark, Belgium and the US are the five worst countries for over-consumption of resources. The study suggests if the expected global population of 9.2 billion in 2050 were to eat a Malaysian diet, 1.3 planets would be needed but if everyone were to eat an Italian diet, humans would need almost two planets. Those countries that can provide the highest quality of life using the lowest amount of resources will not only serve the global interest, but will be the leaders in a resource-limited world.28.We will probably need __________earths if we follow the British lifestyle.A. 1.3B. 2.75C. 2D. 1.529.What do we know about “ecological footprint ”?A. It has something to do with human demands for resources and their wastes.B. It is used to produce the resources and absorb the wastes.C. We can know the total amount of resources on the earth through it.D. It is about changes in land use and water consumption across the globe.30.The WWF believes that_________.A. the earth won’t be able to meet human needs after 50 years.B. the UK has possibly not reduced the use of resources over the past two years.C. Ireland has a lower ecological footprint than the UK.D. there are no big differences in lifestyle between rich and poor nations.31.It can be learned from the text that Malaysia_________A. has a larger population than Italy.B. consumes fewer resources than Italy.C. would need almost two planets.D. has the highest quality of life.4.(8分)DAstronauts traveling in space meet forms of radiation (辐射) that are uncommon on Earth. Some of the radiation has been shown to be harmful to human health, which is linked to cancers and heart problems. Yet a new American study had a different finding.Researchers studied nearly 60 years of health records and other data (数据)about astronauts from the United States. They then compared the data to the information about a group of athletes, who receive good health care and are in good health.The result shows that neither group has higher rates of dying at a young age. In fact, both groups generally live longer than the other Americans.Astronauts are usually well-educated, earn more money and are in better physical condition. Some earlier research linked these to astronauts’ lower risk of early death.However, they might ignore the physical requirements of this job. In fact, there has not been much research on whether astronauts show what is known as the “healthy worker effect”. This effect leads people with the work of space travelling to have fewer medical problems than those who are not working in this field, said Robert Reynolds, a member of the study team.Reynolds said, “The problem has always been to understand if astronauts are as healthy as they would be if they had never gone to space. This means we have to find a group that is comparable on several important factors(因素).” Considering the similar physical requirements, a group of athletes are selected.As the result suggests, being exposed (暴露) to radiation doesn't lead to an early death for astronauts.“Diet and physical exercise also set astronauts and athletes apa rt from the rest of the population,” said Reynolds. “A job requiring physical fitness can add to the healthy worker effect. Even for the other people, remaining or becoming physically active and keeping a well-balanced diet greatly improve overall health and well-being, thus making successfully becoming older possible.”32.What does the underlined sentence in the first paragraph mean?A. Some forms of radiation are common on Earth.B. Some radiation is not harmful to human health.C. Astronauts may have other health problems.D. Astronauts’ health won’t be affected by radiation.33.Why do astronauts have a lower risk of early death according to the study?A. They are well protected from radiation.B. They have better knowledge about health.C. They are richer to afford better medical care.D. They need to stay healthy because of their job.34.Why are athletes chosen as a comparative group in the study?A. They work in different fields.B. They both need to be healthy enough.C. They receive the same diets and exercise.D. They suffer from the same health problems.35.What’s the main idea of the text?A. Astronauts are as healthy as athletes.B. One’s health is determined by his job type.C. Radiation actually doesn’t shorten astronauts’ lives.D. Exercise and balanced diets are secrets to a longer life.二、阅读七选五(本题共计1小题,总分10分)5.(10分)As spring comes to half the world,many people can enjoy the new growth that comes with warmer weather.

Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B,C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.Text 1A former town hall worker made legal history last week when she was awarded 67,000 pounds for stress brought on by her work. The ruling made Beverley Lancaster the first person to get their employer to accept legal responsibility for stress-related personal injury in a British court. It is likely to start a flood of other worker’s claims; Mrs. Lancaster’s union already has 7,000 stress-related cases on its books.The 44-year-old mother of two started a legal case against Birmingham City Council after falling ill while working as a troubleshooter in a neighborhood housing office. Dealing with rude and abusive members of the public pushed her into periods of gloom and she suffered anxiety, Birmingham county court heard. Mrs. Lancaster joined the council at 16, working her way up from junior clerk to senior draughtswoman. Her problems began when she was promoted to housing officer in Sutton Oldfield. "With no continuity, a constant high workload and little clerical support, I found it difficult to switch from one problem or situation to another," she said. "My concentration swung and I suffered sleepless nights. It made me feel like I was in a hole with no key to open the door. I would break down in tears. I was being in paperwork and at times my mind would just go blank."In awarding compensation of 67,491 pounds, assistant recorder Frances Kirkham said she understood the position of troubleshooter was very different from Mrs. Lancaster’s precious job. She rejected claims from the council that Mrs. Lancaster would be able to go back to her former profession, saying she accepted that the possibility of future work would be less capacity.After the hearing Mrs. Lancaster said she was relieved and pleased. She added, "I hope this will act as a warning to employers. Everything I did was right. The council made promises to me and they failed me. I felt isolated, let down, that I was not good enough, not wanted." The payout, the first of its kind to be decided in a county court, covers loss of wages and future loss of earnings.A spokesman for Birmingham City Council said action had been taken by the authority to review its staff and management procedures.46.Mrs. Beverley Lancaster was awarded 67,000 pounds for ______.A.illness caused by her jobB.her successful and good luckC.the courage she showed in courtD.the amount of work she did47.Mrs. Beverley Lancaster took legal action against the city council because ______.A.it refused to award her for her jobB.she had to deal with rude members of the councilC.it was responsible for her problemsD.it denied her any clerical support48.The Lancaster case shows that employees have the right to get compensation if they ______.A.are given work that they are unable to doB.suffer mental injury caused by their workC.are forced to do work that they don’t likeD.feel isolated, let down and extremely anxious49.It can be inferred that ______.A.Mr Lancaster will find a better paid job in the futureB.the job of draughtswoman is very demandingC.the court may hear more stress-related casesD.the job of housing officer causes mental injuries50.If Birmingham City Gouncil plans to move an employee to a new job, it will definitely make sure that ______.A.there is continuity between the two jobsB.no complaints from the employee occurC.the amount of work is reduced for the new jobD.the employee is prepared for any mental problemsText 2Life learning (sometimes called un-schooling or self-directed learning) is one of those concepts that are almost easier to explain by saying what it isn’t, than what it is. And that’s probably because our own schooled backgrounds have convinced usthat learning happens only in a dedicated building on certain days, between certain hours, and managed by a specially trained professional.Within that schooling framework, no matter how hard teachers try and no matter how good their textbooks, many bright students get bored, many slower students struggle and give up or lose their self-respect, and most of them reach the end of the process unprepared to enter into society. They have memorized a certain body of knowledge long enough to rush back the information on tests, but they haven’t really learnt much, at least of the official curriculum.Life learners, on the other hand, know that learning is not difficult, that people learn things quite easily if they’re not compelled and forced, if they see a need to learn something, and if they are trusted and respected enough to learn it on their own timetable, at their own speed, in their own way. They know that learning cannot be produced in us and that we cannot produce it in others—no matter what age and no matter whether we’re at school or at home.Life learning is independent of time, location or the presence of teacher. It does not require mom or dad to teach, or kids to work in workbooks at the kitchen table from 9 to noon from September to June. Life learning is learner-driven. It involves living and learning— in and from the real world. It is about exploring, questioning, experimenting, making messes, taking risks without fear of making mistakes, being laughed at and trying again.Furthermore, life learning is about trusting kids to learn what they need to know and about helping them to learn and grow in their own ways. It is about providing positive experiences that enable children to understand the world and their culture and to interact with it.51.It is implied in the text that it is hard to ______.A.carry life learning thoughB.tell the nature of life learningC.learn without going to schoolD.find a specially trained teacher52.According to the author, the schooling framework often ______.A.produces slow students with poor memoriesB.ignores some parts of the official curriculumC.fails to provide enough knowledge about lifeD.gives little care to the quality of teaching materials53.Life learners recognize that learning will not be difficult if they are ______.A.clear about why to learnB.careful to make a time tableC.able to respect other peopleD.cautious about any mistakes54.According to the author, life learning ______.A.could prevent one from running risksB.could be a road full of trials and errorsC.makes a kid independent of his parentsD.teaches a kid how to avoid being scorned55.Through life learning, children ______.A.will grow without the assistance from parentsB.will learn to communicate with the real worldC.will be driven to learn necessary life knowledgeD.will be isolated from the negative side of societyText 3To find Kim Hyung Gyoon’ s office in Samsung’s R&D complex, just follow the baskets of dirt clothes. No, Kim is not running the company laundry. As chief of Samsung’s Washing & Cleaning Technology Group(WCTG), he’s the man behind a new washing machine that deposits tiny silver particles(small pieces of things) —about 1 / 10,000 the thickness of a human hair— onto clothes to make them germ-and-odor-free without the need of hot water. The device represents the first mass-produced application of this tape of nanotechnology — the science of very small structures —to home appliances. "In summer of 2002, I asked everyone in the office to take off their socks," says Kim. "took one sock from each person and placed it in a regular washing machine; the others were washed in a machine with the Ag+ Nano System. The next day, I asked everyone to check the odor of their socks after a day’s wear. One began produce a strong unpleasant smell, and the other was odorless."Kim says he came up with the idea five years ago while on a business trip to Japan, where he learned of a brand of socks that retained their freshness even after many days of unwashed wear and tear. Tiny sticks of sliver with germ-killing chemicals were woven into the fabric. When he got back to Seoul, Kim applied the principle to washing machines.According to the Korea Testing & Research Industry, Samsung’s device kills 99.9% of germs. Kim says garments stay germ-free for up to a month after being laundered. The Ag+ Nano device went on sale in March 2003 and costs around $1,150; the revolutionary technology is also being used in Samsung’s refrigerators and air conditioners.No wonder: consumers seem to a little sliver in their spin cycles. Since Samsung’s nano-armed products were first launched, they have brought in an estimated $779 million in revenue. Overall, nanotech has been one of science’s fastest-growing fields in recent years, with potential applications in fields as diverse as energy production and toothpaste manufacture. The nanotech market is projected to be worth $1 trillion by 2015.56.Which of the following best describes the nature of Kim Hyung Gyoon’s work?A.Product developmenB.Market investigatioC.Research designinD.Sales promotio57.One advantage of nano-armed washing machines is that ______.A.one wash-load is much larger than beforeB.the clean-up is done with an additional benefitC.cleaning powder is no longer necessaryD.a lot of water could be saved58.In terms of nanotechnology, Kim was the first ______.A.to use it in washing machinesB.to come up with the ideaC.to introduce it to KoreaD.to apply it to socks59.The author believes that the future of nanotechnology will be ______.A.conspicuousB.distinctiveC.foreseeableD.promising60.This text centers on ______.A.the success of an enterpriseB.the application of a technologyC.the market share of Samsung’s WCTGD.the mass-production of a home appliancePart BDirections: Read the following texts in which 5 people expressed their opinions about the concept of "happiness". For questions 61 to 65, match the name of each person (61 to 65) to one of the statements (A to G ) given below. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.Heather McCoyEntering a bookstore, one cannot help but notice entire shelves devoted to books boating knowledge of the true path to happiness.Whether this wave of infomercials and books can actually make people happier is the question. Happiness cannot be found by adhering to a narrow set of steps or rules. Finding happiness is not as simple as following a how-to manual, it’s something that every person must find in his or her own way.Gary RussellDoes happiness grow proportionally with wealth? Hardly.Experiences teaches us material satisfaction comes only when one finds himself wealthier than those around him; and, in a like manner, one feels of being lowered when confronting a billionaire, while a worker with a monthly salary of several hundred dollars becomes the envy of the villagers in remote mountainous regions.David NivenTrue happiness is not a result from human action. Results are temporary whereas happiness is everywhere and can neither be created nor destroyed. True happiness is realized by understanding one’s own SELF. With true happiness there is no place for disappointments! True happiness may mean pain and restraint in the beginning but will lead to eternal joy and freedom. To achieve true happiness, we should isolate and remove the negatives.Joshua PartyHappiness is a state of mind. You can be happy in almost any situation. Likewise, you can be unhappy in an equal number of situations. In the end, it’s your decision.If one can control one’s unhappiness, then one must be able to control one’s happiness. As far as I know, the Human Genome Project has not been able to identify a single part of any human chromosome which is responsible for happiness.Laura JohnsonSo what makes me a happy person? Studying to be a journalist because I loved to write, not because it pays a lot of money. Skiing in the winter snow and swimming in the summer sun. Spending time with my close friends from home that like the real me just as much as the old me. Being in a stable family. Reading romance novels and watching bizarre movies. Having a boyfriend who knows more about rock and roll history than I do.Now match the name of each person (61 to 65) to the appropriate statements. Note: there are two extra statements.Statements[A] Happiness lies in persistent pursuit.[B] Happiness is in your own hand.[C] Freedom is positively related to happiness.[D] Happiness is based on comparison.[E] There does not exist a guide to happiness.[F] Happiness is a balance between man and nature.[G] Happiness is all about doing what you want to.Section ⅣWritingDirections:You should write your responses to both Part A and Part B of this section on ANSWER SHEET 2.1.Your TV broke down only one week after it was bought. Write a letter of complaint to the store where your TV set was bought,1)to express what is wrong with your TV set;2)to make your request (change for a new one, or return the broken one ... );3)to urge the store to give an early reply.You should write approximately 100 words.

高三9月月考(英语)(考试总分:100 分)一、阅读理解(本题共计1小题,总分15分)1.(15分)Too much screen time for kids can lead to poor health the American Heart Association (AHA) says. A scientific statement published by the AHA in the medical journal Circulation said screen time from smart phones, tablet computers and other devices can lead kids to a sedentary(惯于久坐不动的) lifestyle ,increasing the possibility that they grow up as overweight or obese(肥胖的).The AHA is the latest organization urging parents to limit how much time their kids spend in front of screens. It recommends children get one to two hours of screen time each day. Although television viewing among children and teens has dropped, the use of smart phones and tablet computers has surged.“Although the mechanisms(机制) linking screen time to obesity are not entirely clear, there are real concerns that screens influence eating behaviors, mainly because children don’t notice when they are full when eating in front of a screen,” said Tracie Barnett, a researcher at the INRS-Institute Armand-Frappier Research Centre, in a statement.Barnett, one of the authors of the statement, also urges parents to keep screens out of kids’ bedrooms, raising the fear that too much screen time can affect sleep.Many studies have warned about the potential (潜在的) negative effects of too much screen time. Last year, a study from researchers at San Diego State University(SDSU) found nearly half of teens who spent five or more hours in front of screens every day experienced long periods of hopelessness or sadness.Apple, who makes the iOS mobile platform, plans to introduce new tools to devices to help users cut back on screen time. As for iOS 12,iPhones will include a screen time feature where users can control and review how they spend time on their mobile devices. Another company that makes the Android platform will introduce “digital well-being” tools such as screen time limits and a “wind down” (逐渐关闭) option to encourage users to put down their phones before bed.1. Which can replace the underlined word “surged” in paragraph 2?A. Increased suddenlyB. Decreased slowly.C. Stayed the same.D. Lost the balance.2. How do screens influence children’s eating behavior?A. By changing the time they eat.B. By changing their taste for food.C. By influencing how fast they eat.D. By influencing their feeling of fullness.3. What effect did too much screen time have in SDSU’ s study?A. It affected children’s sleep.B. It led to children’s obesity.C. It resulted in diet problems.D. It negatively influenced moods.4. What will Apple do to deal with the screen time problem?A. Reduce its products’ battery life.B. Provide a screen time feature.C. Introduce “digital well-being” tools.D. Add a “wind down” option to its products.5. What is the text type of the passage?A. Narration(记叙文)B. Argumentative Essay.(议论文)C. Expository Writing. (说明文)D. Practical Writing.二、完形填空(本题共计1小题,总分30分)2.(30分)Jason, our son, was born with cerebral palsy (脑瘫).

An old farmer was driving his horses to the barn (牲口棚) when he heard a voice saying, “Excuse me, sir. May I sleep in your barn tonight?” It was from a young soldier called Jack. Quietly standing there, tired and cold, he was waiting for an answer. But the old farmer said rudely, “No, I don’t want anybody like you to stay in my barn. You had better go away.”Jack sadly turned away, wondering where he would go next. Suddenly he felt a light tap on his shoulder. It was the young boy who had been working for the old farmer. The boy said, “I know where you can get help. Just go down this road to the first little cabin you come to. There lives Mrs. Smith, who is very kind and is always willing to help those who need it.” Oh, what warmth filled Jack’s heart, “Thank you very much!” There was at least somebody who cared about him. He quickly reached the cabin and gently knocked on the door. The door opened and the lady inside said, “Good evening. Were you looking for me?”Jack answered, “Are you Mrs. S mith? I was told that you might offer a place to a homeless poor soldier for a night’s stay.” She said, “Sure! Do come in! You look as though you are nearly frozen.” Mrs. Smith shared her simple meal with Jack in the warm room. Then with a thankful heart , he went to sleep on a pile of clean hay Mrs. Smith had prepared for him.The next morning, the kind woman cooked him a warm breakfast. She also gave him a small sum of money to help him travel farther. As he left her house, he thanked her for her kindness, and she prayed for him.Ten years went by and no one remembered what had happened on that cold windy night except one person.Paragraph 1:One morning Mrs. Smith received a letter inviting her to come to London. _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ ________________Paragraph 2:Mrs. Smith's heart was filled with wonder and she burst into tears._________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________答案一、阅读理解(本题共计1小题,总分15分)1.(15分)1.

When I was 17,I read a quote that 21 like,“If you live each day 22 it was your last,someday you'll most certainly be right.” Since then,for the past thirty-three years,I've looked 23 the mirror every morning and asked myself:“If today were the last day of my life,would I want to do what I am about to do today?”And whenever the answer has been “No” for too many days in a 24 ,I know I need to change something.About a year ago I was 25 with cancer. The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable,and that I should 26 to live no longer than three to six months. They advised me to go home and get my 27 in order,which is doctors' code for “prepare to 28 ”. Later that evening when the doctors29 the cells taken from my pancreas(胰腺)under a microscope,they started cryingbecause it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is 30 with surgery. I had the surgery and,31 ,I'm fine now.This was the closest I've been to facing death,and I hope it's the closest I get for a few more decades. Death is the 32 we all share. No one has 33 escaped it.And that is 34 it should be,because death is very likely the single 35 invention of life. It's life's change agent. It clears out the old to make 36 for the new. Your time is 37 ,so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma(信条)—which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of 38 opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most importantly,have the courage to 39 your heart and intuition(直觉). They 40 already know what you truly want to become.

The only thing that brightened my day was the beautifully decorated Christmas tree in our waiting room and a gift sent to me by a fellow I was dating- a dozen long-stemmed red roses.As I was cleaning my office, our receptionist came and said there was a lady in the front office that urgently needed to speak with me. As I stepped out, I noticed a young, tired-looking woman with a baby in her arms. Nervously, she explained that her husband-a prisoner in a nearby prison-was my next patient. The guards were scheduled to bring him to the office that afternoon. She told me she wasn’t allowed to visit her husband in prison and that he had never seen his son. Her request was for me to let the boy’s father sit in the waiti ng room with her as long as possible before I called him for his appointment. Since my schedule wasn’t full, I agreed. After all, it was Christmas Eve.A short time later, her husband arrived-with chains on his feet and hands, and two armed guards as bodyg uards. The woman’s tired face lit up like our little Christmas tree when her husband took a seat beside her. I kept glancing out to watch them laugh, cry and share their child. After almost an hour, I called the prisoner back to my office. While I worked, the guards stood just outside my door. The patient seemed like a gentle and modest man. I wondered what he possibly could have done to be held under such conditions. I tried to make him as comfortable as possible.At the end of the appointment, I wished him a Merry Christmas-a difficult thing to say to a man headed back to prison. He smiled and thanked me. He also said he felt saddened by the fact he hadn’t been able to get his wife anything for Christmas. On hearing this, I was inspired with a wonderful idea.I’ll never forget the look on both their faces as the prisoner gave his wife the beautiful, long-stemmed roses. I’m not sure who experienced the most joy-the husband in giving, the wife in receiving, or myself in having the opportunity to share in this special moment.41.What can be inferred from the first paragraph?A.The writer was a newcomer to her office.B.A fellow sent her a dozen red roses as Christmas present.C.She was in low spirits because she had to work before Christmas.D.She was at work with a light heart.42.The young woman came to the writer’s office for the purpose of.A.having her baby examinedB.giving her husband a chance to make his escapeC.having her husband examinedD.getting a chance for her family to get together43.The underlined part in paragraph 3 most probably means “”.A.to be sent to hospital B.to be separated from his familyC.to be comfortable D.to become a prisoner44.What does the writer learn from the story?A.The wife experienced the most joy in receiving.B.An act of kindness can mean a lot.C.The prisoner was treated with mercy.D.Whoever breaks the law shall be punished.BNext time a customer comes to your office, offer him a cup of coffee. And when you’re doing your holiday shopping online, make sure you’re holding a large glass of iced tea. The physical sensation(感觉)of warmth encourages emotional warmth, while a cold drink in hand prevents you from making unwise decisions—those are the practical lesson being drawn from recent research by psychologist John A. Bargh.Psychologists have known that one person’s perception(感知)of another’s “warmth” is a powerful determiner in social relationships. Judging someone to be either “warm” or “cold” is a primary conside ration, even trumping evidence that a “cold” person may be more capable. Much of this is rooted in very early childhood experiences, Bargh argues, when babies’ conceptual sense of the world around them is shaped by physical sensations, particularly warmth and coldness. Classic studies by Harry Harlow, published in 1958, showed monkeys preferred to stay close to a cloth “mother” rather than one made of wire, even when the wire “mother” carried a food bottle. Harlow’s work and later studies have led psycholog ists to stress the need for warm physical contact from caregivers to help young children grow into healthy adults with normal social skills.Feelings of “warmth” and “coldness” in social judgments appear to be universal. Although no worldwide study has been done, Bargh says that describing people as “warm” or “cold” is common to many cultures, and studies have found those perceptions influence judgment in dozens of countries.To test the relationship between physical and psychological warmth, Bargh conducted an experiment which involved 41 college students. A research assistant who was unaware of the study’s hypotheses(假设), handed the students either a hot cup of coffee, or a cold drink, to hold while the researcher filled out a short information form. The drink was then handed back. After that, the students were asked to rate the personality of “Person A” based on a particular description. Thosewho had briefly held the warm drink regarded Person A as warmer than those who had held the iced drink.“We are grounded in our physical experiences even when we think abstractly,” says Bargh.45. According to Paragraph 1, a person’s emotion may be affected by ________.A. the visitors to his officeB. the psychology lessons he hasC. his physical feeling of coldnessD. the things he has bought online46. The author mentions Harlow’s experiment to show that ________.A. adults should develop social skillsB. babies need warm physical contactC. caregivers should be healthy adultsD. monkeys have social relationships47. In Bargh’s experiment, the students were asked to ________.A. evaluate someone’s personalityB. write down their hypothesesC. fill out a personal information formD. hold coffee and cold drink alternatively48. We can infer from the passage that ________.A. abstract thinking does not come from physical experiencesB. feelings of warmth and coldness are studied worldwideC. physical temperature affects how we see othersD. capable persons are often cold to othersCDo you want to visit Warwick Castle in Britain?

The text probably is taken from .A. a newspaperB. a magazineC. a geography bookD. a websiteDThe traditional distinction between products that satisfy needs and those satisfy wants is no longer adequate to describe classes of products. In today’s prosperous societies, the distinction has become unclear because so many wants have been turned into needs. A writer, for instance, can work with paper and pencils. These are legal needs for the task. But the work can be done more quickly and efficiently with a word processor. Thus a computer is soon viewed as a need rather than a want.In the field of marketing, consumer goods are classed according to the way in which they are purchased. The two main classes are convenience goods and shopping goods. Two lesser types are specialty goods and unsought(主动提供的) goods. It must be emphasized that all of these types are based on the way shoppers think about products, not on the nature of the products themselves. What is regarded as a convenience item in France (wine, for example) should be a specialty goods in the United States.People do not spend a great deal of time shopping for such convenience items as groceries, newspapers, toothpaste, aspirin, and candy. The buying of convenience goods may be done routinely, as some families buy groceries once a week. Such regularly purchased items are called staples. Sometimes convenience products are bought without enough thinking; someone has a sudden desire for an ice cream sundae(圣代) on a hot day. Or they may be purchased as emergency items.Shopping goods are items for which customers search. They compare prices, quality, and styles, and may visit a number of stores before making a decision. Buying an automobile is often done this way.Shopping goods fall into two classes; those that are recognized as basically the same and those that are regarded as different. Items that are looked upon as basically the same include such things as home appliances, television sets, and automobiles. Having decided on the model desired, the customer is primarily interested in gettingthe item at the most favorable price. Items regarded as essentially different include clothing, furniture, and dishes. Quality, style and fashion will either take precedence(优先) over price, or they will not matter at all.53. It can be learned from the first paragraph that ______.A. a writer needs a word processorB. needs an d wants can’t be separated clearlyC. the way to distinguish the products is unimportantD. a computer is a need rather than a want54. The example of wine is used to show that ______.A. goods are classified differently in different countriesB. the types of the product lie on the people rather than its natureC. Frenchmen often drink but Americans sometimes doD. one product may belong to many types55. Staples are items that ______.A. are convenient to purchaseB. are purchased without enough thinkingC. people “want but don’t need”D. people are in constant need of56. Shopping goods that are considered as basically the same are those that ______.A. consumers don’t care where to buy themB. consumers spend much time searching forC. satisfy similar needs of the consumerD. can be found in nearly every shopE“ONLY A COKE WILL DO”“We don’t necessarily believe that new advertising, which might make consumers feel better about the Coke brand or better about the ads themselves , will actually result in consumers consuming more of the product,” Morgan Stanley’s Bill Pecoriello wrote in a research note the days after the investor (投资者) meeting . But Coke is optimistic it can regain its old magic, and is banking on a new slogan: “Welcome to the Coke side of life.”BREAK THROUGH HIT?With PepsiCo about to surpass(超越)Coke as the beverage king on Wall Street —Pepsi’s market capitalization has soared in recent years to $97.9 billion, putting it less than a billion dollars behind its rival —the heat is on Coke . It’s set to launch a new marketing campaign in March, . And having taken a quick look at Coke’s investor presentation on Dec. 7 in New York, my sense is that Coke may be moving in the right direction .Given the continued shift by consumers away from soda—Coke’s stronghold —and into alternative beverages like juice, tea, and water, Coke badly needs a breakthrough hit. And given that shift away from soda, some analyists wonder whether even the catchiest new ads will be enough to put the fizz back into Coke. SAME OLD, UPDATED?The new flavors of PowerAde sports drink will probably enable Coke to continue stealing market share from PepsiCo’s Gatorade brand. And Coke is getting a little more creative with packaging, including new, aluminum bottles of Coke that will besold in nightclubs, and an 8.4-ounce “100 calorie” version of its flagship Coke that will appeal to women who want fewer calories and will like the fact that the small can will fit in their purse. I doubt whether other new products will be successful, includinga new coffee-flavored soda called Coke-Cola Black that I tried. Think carbonatedcoffee. But I’m not sure if the product, which Coke is pitching as an afternoon pick-me-up for the 35-and-over set, is going to pull people away from their afternoon Frappucino fix. And my opinion is that Vault, an orange-flavored energy drink, will have just as much trouble unseating Mountain Dew among teens as did Coke’s last attempt, a product called Surge.If there is one concern I have about the fresh offerings Coke plans to launch this year, it appears that many of them are simply new brands, not new products.57. According to the passage, we can know that .A. Coke mainly depends on new products recentlyB. Nowadays Coke is comparatively less popularC. PepsiCo has taken the place of CokeD. Coke has few new brands58. The underlined word “soared” means .A. achievedB. droppedC. increasedD. failed59. When the middle-aged people feel tired, what would they prefer to drink in orderto continue their work?A. Vault.B. Surge.C. Coke-Cola Blake.D. Frappucino.60. What is the best title of the passage ?A. Troubles in Coke CompanyB. The Importance of New AdvertisementsC. Varieties of New ProductsD. The Relationship between Coke and Pepsi 第二节补全对话。

Louise’s husband’s friend, Richards, learned about a railroad disaster when he was in the newspaper office and saw Louise’s husband, Brently, on the list of those killed. Louise begins sobbing when Josephine, her sister, tells her of Brently’s death and goes upstai rs to be alone in her room.Louise sits down and looks out of an open window. She sees trees, smells approaching rain, and hears a peddler yelling out what he’s selling. She hears someone singing as well as the sounds of sparrows, and there are white clouds in the sky. She is young, with lines around her eyes. Still crying, she gazes into the distance. She feels sad and tries to hold down the building emotions within her, but can’t. She begins repeating the word“Free” to herself over and over again. Her heart beats quickly, and she feels very warm.Louise knows she’ll cry again when she sees Brently’s body. His hands were tender, and he always looked at her lovingly. But then she imagines the years ahead, which belong only to her now, and spreads her arms out joyfully with anticipation. She will be free, on her own without anyone to oppress her. She thinks that all women and men oppress one another even if they do it out of kindness. Louise knows that she often felt love for Brently but tells herself that none of that matters anymore. She feels thrilled with her newfound sense of independence.Josephine comes to her door, begging Louise to come out, warning her that she’ll get sickif she doesn’t. Louise tells her to go away. She imagines all the days and yea rs ahead and hopes that she lives a long life. Then she opens the door, and she and Josephine start walking down the stairs, where Richards is waiting.The front door unexpectedly opens, and Brently comes in. He hadn’t been in the train accident or even aware that one had happened. Josephine screams, and Richards tries unsuccessfully to block Louise from seeing him. Doctors arrive and announce that Louise died of a heart attack brought on by happiness.1. How did Louise learn about Brently’s death?A. She saw it in the news.B. Richards informed her.C. She found out through Josephine.D. The railroad company notified her.2. Which words can describe Louise after she heard the news?A. Excited and happy.B. Sad but relieved.C. Desperate and lonely.D. Joyful but terrified.3. What does the underlined word “oppressed” in Paragraph 3 mean?A. Fight.B. Suspect.C. Control.D. Fool.4. What can we learn from the passage?A. Brently played a trick on Louise on purpose.B. The train accident caused Louise’s heart attack.C. Josephine’s scream resulted in Louise’s sudden death.D. Brently’s survival was the last thing Louise had expected.4.(10分)An international team of astronomers have announced the first organized search for alien technology in our own solar system. The Galileo Project, led by Professor Avi Loeb from Harvard University in the US, will look for signs of robotic spacecraft from other planets.The project might sound like science fiction but it’s rooted in science fact. Many astronomers believe that if life and intelligence have evolved elsewhere in our galaxy, then at least a few alien civilizations are likely to have launched probes to explore other solar systems and perhaps watch over habitable planets like Earth.One of the project’s main ai ms is to carry out a scientific study of UFOs (unidentifiedflying objects). Since at least the 1940s, many people have reported seeing strange objects or lights in the sky that fly in seemingly impossible ways. Some have even been caught on film. Although UFOs are unlikely to have alien pilots, Loeb suggests that they could be intelligent machines investigating the Earth to gather data. Since they are hard to explain from rare chance sightings, the project aims to set up automatic networks of telescopes to scan the skies. If a UFO is spotted, a variety of very precise instruments can then be used to track and measure it.Further afield, the team want to look for possible alien machines flying through our solar system. In 2017, scientists were excited when Oumuamua, a 400-metre-long object from outside our solar system, flew past the Sun at high speed. Most scientists think it was a natural comet that escaped from its orbit around another star, but because it was discovered by chance, there was little time to study it in detail. Loeb plans to search the skies for similar visitors, so that astronomers can learn more about them and investigate whether they might be artificial rather than natural.1 What does the underlined phrase “caught on film” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Shot down.B. Photographed.C. Trapped.D. Looked into.2. What can we know about UFOs from the passage?A. Alien pilots have been spotted in them.B. They are strange objects or lights in the sky.C. They must be spacecrafts searching our planet for statistics.D. Many accurate tools have been applied to track and measure them.3 The last paragraph develops mainly by___________.A. making a summaryB. drawing comparisonsC. explaining a conceptD. providing an example4. What is this passage mainly about?A. A science fiction which is rooted in science fact.B. A project to look for habitable planets like Earth.C. A program to search for flying machines from alien civilizations.D. A scientific study of our solar system carried out by Harvard University.5.(10分)China on Monday issued strict new measures aimed at addressing what authorities describe as youth videogame addiction, which they blame for a variety of societalills, including distracting young people from school and family responsibilities.The new regulation, announced by the National Press and Publication Administration, will ban minors from playing videogames entirely between Monday and Thursday. On the other three days of the week, and on public holidays, they will be only permitted to play between 8 p.m. and 9 p.m.The announcement didn’t offer a specific age for minors, but previous regulations targeting younger videogamers have drawn the line at 18 years old. Enforcement measures weren’t detailed, but in response to previous moves by the government to limit videogame playing by young people, Tencent Holdings Ltd., the world’s largest videogame company, has used a combination of technologies, automatically kicking off players after a certain period of time and using real-name registration and facial-recognition technology to limit game play for minors.In restricting videogame play for younger people, the government is seeking to “effectively protect the physical and mental health of minors,” China’s state-run Xinhua News Agency said Monday.Monday’s new rule is likely to be felt through China’s online gaming industry, one of the world’s largest. The measure comes as the Chinese government seeks to restrict China’s technology industry, a campaign that has caused a trillion-dollar selloff in Chinese stock market and hit a range of businesses, including for-profit education providers, ride-hailing(打车)services and e-commerce platforms.Videogames have become a particular object of anger as Beijing seeks to reshape an industry it has described as motivated by profit at the expense of public morals. A state-media remarks this month triggered a selloff in shares of Tencent after it published an article that described online games as “opium(鸦片)for the mind.”After the regulations were published on Monday, following the close of stock-market trading, Tencent said it had introduced a variety of new functions to better protect minors. It promised to continue to do so as it “strictly follows and actively implements the latest requirement s from Chinese authorities.”1. According to the new regulation, how long can a minor play videogames during a weekend?A. One hour.B. Two hours.C. Three hours.D. Unlimited hours.2. What measure does Tencent take to carry out the regulation?A. Parental guidance.B. Automatic registration.C. Compulsory offline.D. Fingerprint identification.3. Which negative influence of videogames is implied in this passage?A. They harm teenagers’ mental health.B. They make people easy to get angry.C. They make people entirely irresponsible.D. They bring in lots of profits for the government.4. Which can be the best title for the passage?A. No More GamesB. Protection of the YouthC. The End of Technology IndustryD.

It wasn't that she sho uted, or told me that I was doing poorly. As you can imagine, my mother's "helpful instructions" only managed to make me more nervous.Since I could no longer practice with her, the job was place d in the hands of my father. The idea of learning from Dad wa s not one that thrilled me. I loved him dearly, but I just did not see Dad as someone I could be comfortable learning from. H e almost never talked. We shared a typical father-daughter relationship. He'd ask how school was, and I'd say it was fine. Unfortunately, that was the most of our conv ersations. Spending hours alone with someone who might aswell have been a stranger really scared me.As we got into the car that first time, I was not surprised at what happened. Dad and I drove around, saying almost nothi ng, aside from a few instructions on how to turn. As my lesson s went on, however, things began to change. Dad would turn t he radio up so I could fully appreciate his favorite Stones musi c. And he actually began talking. I was soon hearing about pa st failed dates, "basicbody" gym class, and other tales from his past, including som e of his first meeting with Mom.Dad’s sudden chattiness was shocking until I thought abou t why he was telling me so much in the car. In all the years th at I had wondered why my father never spoke that much, I ha d never stopped to consider that it was because I had never b othered to listen. Homework, friends, and even TV had all called me away from him, and, consequently, I neve r thought my quiet father had anything to say.Since I began driving with him, my driving skill has greatly i ncreased. More important, though, is that my knowledge of w ho my father is has also increased. Just living with him wasn't enough— it took driving with him for me to get to know someo ne who was a mystery.4. The author couldn't practice driving with her mother because __________ .A. she couldn't talk with her motherB. her mother m ade her nervousC. her father wanted to teach herD. she didn't tru st her mother5. At first, the idea of learning driving from her father made he r .A. happyB. disappointedC. satisfiedD. uneasy6. What surprised the author when the driving lessons went o n?A. Her Dad was a chatty person.B. Her Dad was the best teacher.C. Her Dad liked modern music.D. Her Dad told her his sad stories.7. With her story "Car Talk", the author indicatesthat .A. fathers love their daughters dearlyB. family members need real communicationC. mothers are less patient than fathersD . it takes time to improve the father-daughter relationship CTIME is an American weekly news magazine published in New YorkCity. It was created in 1923 by Briton Hadden and Henry Luc e, making it the first weekly news magazine in the US. Hadde n was considered carefree, liked to tease Luce and saw TIME as important but also fun. That accounted for its heavy cover age of celebrities(including politicians), the entertainment indu stry, and pop culture—criticized as too light for serious news. It tells the news through people, and for many decades, the magazine’s cover depicted a single per son. On Hadden’s death in 1929, Luce became the most impo rtant man at TIME and a major figure in the history of 20th-century media.TIME is also known for its signature red border, first introdu ced in 1927. It has only changed four times since then. Theissue released shortly after the September 11 attacks on the United States featured a black border to symbolize mourning. However, this edition was a special “extra”edition published quickly for the breaking news of the event; the next regularly scheduled issue contained the red border. Additionally, the A pril 28, 2008 Earth Day issue, dedicated to environmental issu es, contained a green border. The next change in border was in the September 19, 2011 issue, commemorating the 10than niversary of the September 11 attacks with a metallic silver border. The most recent change(again with a silver border) was i n the December 31, 2012 issue, noting Barack Obama’s selec tion as Man of the Year.TIME has a division magazine, TIME FOR KIDS(TFK) whic h is especially published for children and is mainly distributed in classrooms. TFK co ntains some national news, a “Cartoon of the Week”, and a va riety of articles concerning popular culture that the younger U. S. citizens are interested in. All the stories in TFK are written by young reporters.In some advertising campaigns, the magazine has suggeste d that the letters TIME stand for “The International Magazine of Events”.8. TIME has a history of _______.A. about 50 yearsB. about 70 yearsC. about 90 yearsD. about 150 years9. Why did some people dislike TIME in the beginning?A. It had kept its cover the same since the 1920s.B. It didn’t have a serious tone for important events.C. It didn’t report important events quickly enough.D. Henry Luce was in charge of the magazine for too long.10. Why did TIME change its red border for the first time?A. To remember the 10thanniversary of an attack.B. To remind readers to protect the environment.C. To show great sadness about the deaths.D. To call on readers to vote for Obama.11. What do we know about TFK?A. It has young reporters writing articles.B. It has a divisio n magazine called TIME.C. It is designed for kidsand teachers. D. It mainly contains popular culture.DA machine that takes sweat-laden (浸满汗水的) clothes and turns the sweat into drinking water is in use in Sweden. The machine makes the clothes turn round quickly, heats them to remove the sweat, and then passes the steam t hrough a kind of special material to make purified water.Since it has been brought into use, its creators say more th an 1000 people have drunk others’―sweat in Gothenburg. The y add the liquid is cleaner than local tap water.The device was built for the United Nations’child-focused charity UNICEF to promote a campaign highlighting t he fact that 780 million people in the world lack access to clea n water.The machine was designed and built by the engineer Andre as Hammar, known locally for his appearances on TV tech sh ow --Mekatronik. He said the key part of the sweat machine was a new water purification part developed by a company named H VR.It uses a technique called membrane distillation (膜蒸馏),he told the BBC. ―We use a special kind of material that o nly lets steam through but keeps bacteria, salts, clothing fiber s and other things out. They have something similar to the Int ernational Space Station, but our machine is cheaper to build. The amount of water it produces depends on how sweaty the person is, but one person’s T-shirt typically produces 10ml, about a mouthful.The device has been put on show at the Gothia Cup--the world’s largest international youth football tournament. Ma ttias Ronge, chief executive of Stockholm--based advertising agency Deportivo, said the machine had he lped raise awareness for UNICEF, but in reality had its limitati ons.People haven’t produced as much sweat as we hoped –right now the weather in Gothenburg is lousy, Mattias Ronge said. ―So we’ve equipped the machine with exercise bikes and volunteers are cycling like crazy. Even so, the demand for s weat is greater than the supply. And the machine will never b e produced in large numbers, since there are better solutions out there such as water purifying pills.12. Which of the following is the disadvantage of the sweat m achine?A. It takes too long for the machine to produce water.B. It costs a large amount of money to build the machine.C. The amount of water the machine produces is rather limit ed.D. The water processed by the machine is not clean enough .13. What did Mattias Ronge think of the sweat machine?A. It did not work at all.B. It was not worth popula rizing.C. It could only be used in summer.D. The water it pro duced tasted sweet.14.UNICEF is mentioned in the text to ________.A. show how the sweat machine worksB. tell us who invented the sweat machineC. show the importance of the United NationsD. explain why the sweat machine was invented15. The text is written mainly to tell us that ______________.A. a better solution to purifying dirty water is discoveredB. 780 million people in the world lack access to clean waterC. a machine which turns sweat into drinking water is invent edD. the pill which turns dirty water into clean water is produced第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10 分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
