3．but [考查连词。前后语义为转折关系，故用but。]

(2016·成都诊断)Many years ago, an experiment in education was carried out in secret at a school in England.The school had two classes for children of the same age.At the end of the school year an examination was held, in order to select the children for the classes of next year.However, the results of the exam were never made known.In secret, based on their performance in the exam, the higher performing and lower performing children were divided equally between the two classes.Only the headmaster and the psychologists knew the truth.Teachers for the next year were carefully selected for equal ability and experience.Even the classrooms were chosen with similar facilities (设备).Everything was made as equal as possible, except for one thing: one was called “Class A”， the other, “Class B”.
In everyone's minds the children in Class A were the clever ones, and the kids in Class B were not so clever.Some of the parents of the Class A children were pleasantly surprised that their children had done so well and rewarded them with presents and praise, while the parents of some of the Class B kids complained that their children did not work hard enough and took away some of their rewards.Even the teachers taught the Class B kids in a different manner, not expecting so much from them.For a whole year the illusion existed.Then there was another end of year exam.
The results were not surprising.The children of Class A performed so much better than those of Class B.In fact, the results were just as if they had been the top half chosen from last year's exam.They had become “Class A” children.And those in the other group, though equal the year before, had now become “Class B” kids.That was what they were told for a whole year, that was how they were treated, and that was what they believed — so that was what they became.
1.According to the text, it is a fact that ________.
A.the Class A kids worked harder
B.the Class A kids had better facilities
C.kids in the two classes had equal ability
D.teachers of Class A were more experienced
2.The underlined word “illusion” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “________”.
A.reward systemB.false impression
C.teaching plan
D.old tradition
3.Why didn't the Class B kids perform well in the second exam?
A.Because they didn't work hard.
B.Because they had lost selfconfidence.
C.Because their teachers were irresponsible.
D.Because what they learned was too difficult.
4.The experiment proved the importance of ________.
A.great ambitions
B.natural talents
C.strong determination
D.outside influence

(2016·河北省唐山市统一考试)Hybrid cars (混合动力车) are cars that run on petrol and electricity. They have a small standard petrol engine and a battery
electric motor to provide electric power.
There are some differences between different models of hybrid cars, but the general principle is that the car runs on petrol, and the electric motor kicks in when additional power is required, for example, when going uphill or accelerating. In some hybrid cars the petrol engine turns itself off when not needed, for example when the car has stopped at traffic lights, keeping only the electric engine running.
Conventional cars have large engines to deal with driving uphill and accelerating. Hybrid cars have much smaller petrol engines, improved by electric motors when needed, so they use less petrol. Another way that fuel consumption is cut is by a system of “regenerative (再生的) braking”. The electric motor is used to slow down the car, rather than conventional brakes. The energy produced by slowing the car is changed into electrical power, which is automatically stored in the battery. In effect, the battery recharges when you brake. In conventional cars the energy produced when braking is wasted.
In 1928, Ferdinand Porsche built an experimental hybrid car. The first massproduced hybrid car, the Toyota Prius, came out in Japan at the end of 1997. However, hybrid cars became available in the USA only in 1999. As they use less fuel, hybrid cars are cheaper to run. There are also many voices in place to encourage people to buy them. In some countries, hybrid car owners pay a lower rate of tax, and don't have to pay on certain roads. In some cities, hybrid cars are allowed to park for free.
1.Hybrid cars consume less energy than conventional cars because hybrid cars
have ________.
A.large engines to deal with accelerating
B.conventional brakes to slow down the car
C.no energy consumption when stopping
D.electric power to assist when needed
2.In regenerative braking, ________.
A.the conventional brakes are used to slow down the car
B.energy wasted in conventional cars is stored in the battery
C.the battery charges itself when the car is accelerating
D.the petrol engine is usually turned off automatically
3.From the last paragraph we can learn that hybrid cars ________.
A.will gain more popularity
B.were first available in the USA
C.free their owners from tax
D.are free to park anywhere in the city
4.The main purpose of this text is to ________.
A.show how hybrid cars slow down
B.encourage people to buy hybrid cars
C.inform people of a kind of energysaving car
D.explain why hybrid cars use less energy
1．解析：选D 细节理解题根据第三段第二句“Hybrid cars have much smaller ... use less petrol.”可知混合动力车必要时有电力支持所以消耗较少的能源解析：选B 细节理解题根据第三段可知混合动力车用电动马达减速而不是用传统的刹车电动马达降低车速时产生的电能会被自动储存在电池里而传统汽车浪费了刹车时产生的能量由此可知B项表述正确解析：选A 推理判断题根据最后一段中的“As they use less fuel, hybrid cars ... for free.”可推知使用混合动力车有很多好处所以混合动力车会很受欢迎解析：选C 写作意图题本文主要介绍了一种节约能源的车——混合动力车故应选择CC

Get Help When You Need It
Sometimes even though you're paying attention in class, certain classes seem too hard. Although you may hope that things will get easier, most of the time this doesn't happen. It happens to many people that they work harder and harder as they fall further and further behind.
1.________ If you need extra help, the most important thing to know is that there's nothing embarrassing about it.
No one is expected to understand everything.
2.________ He or she may be able to work with you before or after school and explain things more clearly. If you're in a big enough school, there may be other teachers who teach the same subject. 3.________
Sometimes it just helps to have someone new explain something in a different way.
You might also be able to get some help from another student. If there's someone you like who's a good student, think about asking that person. This might help because you'll be hearing the information from the view of one of your students. 4.________ Lots of people understand something perfectly without being able to explain it.
5.________Tutors sometimes come to your home, but there are also tutoring centers across the country. Tutors work with you one on one, helping review and further explain things taught in the classroom. The advantage of having a tutor is that it gives you the opportunity to ask questions directly and work at your own pace.
A.However, they don't lose heart.
B.Naturally, this makes them hate a class.
C.Another choice for extra help is a tutor.
D.These students are all good at explaining.

Last Sunday morning, I went to the community square for a walk.
高考题型提能练(二十一).1～5 BEFGC.参考范文：Last Sunday morning, I went to the community square for a walk. It was a fine day and many people were walking around there. Suddenly, a welldressed man smoking a cigarette came into sight. He was walking a big frightening dog, which kept barking at people around loudly. Seeing this, a little girl was frightened, hid behind her mother and cried. The mother begged the man to walk away, but he ignored her and showed no shame for what he had done.
Obviously, the man does not care about other people's feelings. He is one of those people who just do things to please themselves, regardless of others.
In my opinion, everyone has a right to enjoy his or her life, but he or she mustn't do others harm while doing that.
