Through one's eyes, we can read sorrow, happiness, encouragement, and many other emotions. Eyes are always one of the fastest and most direct organs to reveal your thoughts. Until now, I still remember an unforgettable experience, which happened when I took part in a singing contest at the age of nine. It was the power of my mother's eyes that encouraged me to go for it. I had shown great interest in singing before that, but I was too shy to sing in public. So one day my mother took me to sign up for the singing contest. With my mother's company and encouragement, I was determined to meet that challenge.Standing on the stage, I suddenly found I had become the focus of all the eyes. I got so nervous that I couldn't even keep my eyes open. When it was my turn to be introduced to the audience and sing, I became even more nervous. I felt my legs were shaking and my memory seemed to have left me, as I couldn't remember anything. Searching for help, I met my mother's eyes which were sparkling with encouragement and strong power. It seemed that they were speaking to me, “Come on! Baby! Take it easy. I'll always be with you!”I read the message through her eyes and at that moment I got my confidence back and began to sing my song.When I came down from the stage, she came up to me, saying, “Great! I'm proud of you!”and gave me a big hug. At that time, I found her eyes filled with tears of joy. Sometimes, you see, just the encouraging eyes themselves can make a shy person brave.1.What does the author mean to do by telling her unforgettable experience?A.To prove her view that eyes are another kind of language we use to express ourselves.B.To prove that the eyes are very important parts of our bodies.C.To share her unforgettable experience with us.D.To tell us how she became brave.2.What's the meaning of the underlined word in the first paragraph?A.Show.B.Experience.C.Contact.D.Understand.3.What did the mother think of the author's performance?A.Poor.B.Not good.C.Splendid.D.Hopeful.4.What's the best title of the passage?A.My unforgettable experienceB.EyesC.A singing contestD.Confidence and success【答案】语篇解读本文是一篇记叙文。

Those who continue using iPhones could lose their jobs while those who switch to Huawei would get subsidies, the document said.Asked why, a senior pany executive said the move was to ensure the security of information and mercial secrets, and to encourage all to support domestic brands. Some enterprises and agencies might have security concerns, but for the pany involved that seems unlikely, and it seems to be more of a publicity ploy.There have been instances in the past, too, of other private panies forbidding employees fromusing iPhones and insisting they support Chinese brands.At a time when the United States government is forcing US panies to stop doing business with Huawei, it is good to see Chinese patriots (同胞) supporting Chinese brands. However, it isn’t Apple that is stopping supplying chips and other hightech parts to Huawei. It is US politicians. The president has also issued executive orders to shut down Tik Tok so as to force it to sell its US businesses to an American pany.The best way to support Chinese panies is to speak out against those US politicians. It is advisable, for example, to create awareness among friends in the US about the ways in which these politicians are harming both Chinese and US interests.Boycotting US brands such as Apple is not at all advisable. It not only violates (侵犯) an individual’s personal right to choose what he or she likes, it also creates a lot of misunderstanding. Of course, organizations that deal with critical information can ask their employees to use domestic brands. But that must be done legally.Even Huawei founder Ren Zhengfei said that patriotism should not decide whether one wants an iPhone or a Huawei. He said that he had bought Apple puters for his family and that his pany must learn from its petitors.1．The underlined word “subsidies”in Paragraph 1 probably means . A．jobsB．bonusC．punishmentD．pliment2．Why did the pany require its employees to stop using iPhones according to its leadership? A．They thought the pany’s secret information might be stolen by iPhones.B．They felt guilt and shame at using iPhones.C．They had to obey the order of the local government.D．They thought using iPhones was an act of showing off.3．According to the passage all the following statements are true EXCEPT that________. A．some enterprises and individuals don’t use iPhones to take their patriotic standB．Apple is stopping supplying chips to HuaweiC．boycotting US brands is not at all wise and appropriateD．Ren Zhengfei and his family also use Apple products4．Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A．We Need to Unite Against Using iPhonesB．One pany Ploy Matters to One Country’s FutureC．Can’t Force Huawei to Be Apple of One’s EyeD．Chinese patriots Let’s Switch to Huawei（2023·山东·济南市一模统考）According to a study done by University of Michigan, shopping to reduce stress was 40 times more effective at giving people a sense of control and shoppers were three times less sad than those only looking at items.More than half of the 1,000 consumers surveyed by Credit Karma, head researcher of the study, said they have shopped to deal with feelings of stress or depression. About 48 percent of men and 31 percent of women who have stress shopping said they had purchased alcohol when stressed. About 82 percent of women spend on clothing pared to 52 percent of men. Women also lead shopping for jewellery, 42 percent, pared to 22 percent for men.In some sense, stress shopping can actually help you live a healthier life by making sure that your blood pressure is lowered. The survey found 82 percent had only positive feelings about their purchases and that the positive mood was longlasting. However, stress shopping, for many, could grow into a drive that uses up money, causes conflict, and therefore adds great stress to life. Despite the intime joy from purchases, stress shopping never proves a longlasting cure to stress or depression. Actually it needs to be avoided anyhow. Whether you’re purchasing Christmas presents or buying groceries having the items you need written down will provide you with brightness while shopping. Reward yourself for sticking to your list and you’ll be more likely to mit to it.In addition always think about what you struggle with most financially. Do you spend too much money at the mall? Eating out? Vacations? Make a list of where your money is going and take necessary steps to resist your desire. For example, if you spend too much money on dining out on weekends, stuff your cupboard with food on Friday. So you’ll be more likely to stay in and cook. And you need to give up the need to keep up with others. Everyone’s financial situation is different and parison may lead to debt and dissatisfaction with what you already have.5．Why does the author mention those numbers in Paragraph 2?A．To support an idea.B．To attract readers.C．To call for actions.D．To introduce a topic.6．Which of the following may help deal with stress shopping?A．Stimulating desires.B．Recording spendings.C．Turning to medicines.D．paring with others.7．What is the author’s attitude to stress shopping?A．Unclear.B．Doubtful.C．Objective.D．Negative.8．What is a suitable title for the text?A．Does shopping benefit us?B．More stressed, women or men?C．Should we pare with others?D．Can stress shopping reduce stress?（2022·江苏·南京市第一中学校考一模）You look up at the sky on a clear and dark night, you’ll see more stars than your eyes can count. Most of these stars have planets, similar to our own, orbiting them. With so many celestial bodies floating out in space, you can’t help but question whether other forms of life exist in the universe. And if that’s the case, is it possible to contact them?Science is still somewhat divided on this issue. Currently, no evidence exists to suggest that intelligent life exists elsewhere in the universe. Yet with an estimated one trillion planets in our galaxy alone, it seems highly likely that Earthlings aren’t the only intelligent creatures out there. Some claim that life can only develop under perfect circumstances, and Earth is perhaps the only example of this. Other scientists object to this claim, and point out that even on Earth, life can find a way under the most extreme circumstances.Some people believe that aliens have already visited our planet, but this information is being kept secret by governments. The most famous incident of this kind occurred in Roswell, New Mexico in 1947. On that date, many residents reported seeing an unusual flying disc streak through the sky, before it crashed in a field. When the military heard about the crash, they quickly sealed off the area. A few hours later, the army base announced that it had recovered a flying disk. Shortly after, this statement was retracted and it was said that it was a weather balloon that crashed. However, years later one local mortician even claimed that the military had him secretly perform an autopsy on a dead alien body.Others believe that there certainly are other life forms out there, but the distance between us is too great. Even if we could somehow create a spaceship that travels at the speed of light, it would still probably take several lifetimes to reach them. Then again, we might never have to do this if aliens reach us first.9．Why do some scientists think there is life on other planets?A．Because an unusual flying disc was ever witnessed.B．Because life exists despite extreme conditions as those on the Earth do.C．Because the government’s statement seemed suspicious.D．Because there are a great number of planets in the universe.10．What does the underlined word “retracted”in paragraph 3 mean?A．Examined again to guarantee the correctness.B．Emphasized again to persuade people.C．Formally taken back what has been said.D．Seriously criticized due to poor evidence11．Which of the following might be the best title for the text?A．Are we alone in the universe?B．Is it possible to contact aliens? C．Intelligent life in the universe.D．Planets floating out in space.12．How does the author sound in the passage?A．Objective.B．Humorous.C．Cautious.D．Anxious.【答案】1．B 2．A 3．B 4．C 5．A 6．B 7．D 8．D 9．D10．C11．A12．A。
