Ⅲ.阅读理解
(2016·山西省四校高三联考)Sure，it's good to get along with your teacher because it makes that time you spend in the classroom more pleasant.And yes，it's good to get along with your teacher because，in general，it's smart to learn how to relate to the different types of people you'll meet throughout your life.
But really，there's one super important reason why you should get along with your teacher.Kids who get along with their teachers not only learn more，but also they're more comfortable asking questions and getting extra help.This makes it easier to understand new material and do your best on tests.When you have this kind of relationship with a teacher，he or she can be someone to turn to with problems, such as learning or school issues and bullying.
As a kid in elementary or middle school，you're at a wonderful stage in your life.You're able to take in lots of new and exciting information.Apart from that，you're able to think about all this information in new ways.Your teacher knows that，and in most cases，he or she is thrilled to be the person who's giving you all that material and helping you put it together.Remember teachers are people，too，and they feel great if you're open to what they're teaching you.That's why they wanted to be teachers in the first place!
Some kids may be able to learn in any situation，whether they like the teacher or not.But most kids are sensitive to the way they get along with the teacher，and if things aren't going well，they won't learn as well and won't enjoy being in class.
1．Paragraph 2 mainly talks about ________.
A．new material learned from teachers
B．ways to develop relationship with teachers
C．benefits in getting along with teachers
D．avoiding problems happening around kids
2．What's the writer's attitude towards getting along with teachers?
A．Doubtful. B．Objective.
C．Uncaring.
D．Favorable.
3．What can we know from the passage?
A．Kids are unable to understand lots of exciting information.
B．Kids are bullied while communicating with others in school.
C．Most kids will leave the class when not doing quite well with their teachers.
D．Most kids will leave the class when not satisfied with teachers' teaching methods.
4.The passage is most probably taken from ________.
A．children's literature
B．an education magazine
C．a science report
D．an advertisement
答案：
解题导语：本文主要介绍与老师相处融洽的重要性。
1．C 解析：段落大意题。根据第二段中的“Kids who get along with their teachers not only learn more, but also they're more comfortable asking questions and getting extra help. This makes it easier to understand new material and do your best on tests. When you have this kind of relationship with a teacher, he or she can be someone to turn to with problems”可知，本段主要谈论与老师相处融洽的好处，即C项正确。
2．D 解析：推理判断题。根据第一段的整体内容可推知，作者是赞成与老师相处融洽的，即D项正确。
3．C 解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“But most kids are sensitive to the way they get along with the teacher, and if things aren't going well, they won't learn as well and won't enjoy being in class.”可知，如果和老师相处不好，大部分孩子将不愿意学习和待在班里，即C项正确。
4．B 解析：文章出处题。children's literature“儿童文学”；an education magazine “一本教育杂志”；a science report“一篇科学报道”；an advertisement“一条广告”。由文章整体内容可知，本文很可能来自一本教育杂志，即B项正确。
Ⅳ.阅读填空
(2015·山西师大附中高三期中考试)Procrastination (拖延) is a phenomenon we are familiar with.When we procrastinate，we waste our free time and put off important tasks we should do till it's too late.__1__ Here，I will share some personal steps taken to overcome procrastination with great success.
Break your work down into little parts.Part of the reason why we procrastinate is that we find the work too overwhelming (巨大的)for us.Break it down into little parts，and then focus on one part at a time.If you still procrastinate after doing so，break it down even further.__2__
Change your environment.Look at your work desk and your room.Do they make you want to work or do they make you sleepy？__3__
Create a detailed timeline with specific deadlines.Having just one deadline for your work is like an invitation to procrastinate.That's because we would get the impression that we have time and keep pushing everything back until it's too late.__4__ In this way，you know you have to finish each task by a certain date.
__5__ I'm pretty sure if you spend just 10 minutes talking to people like Steve Jobs or Bill Gates，you'll be more inspired to act than if you spend the 10 minutes doing nothing.The people we are with influence our behavior.
A．Seek out someone who has already achieved the similar outcome to your goals.
B．Hang out with people who inspire you to take action.
C．Having a companion makes the whole process much more fun.
D．If it's the latter，you should begin to change your workspace.
E．It's a bad habit eating us away and stopping us achieving greater success in life.
F．Break down your project，and then create an overall timeline with specific deadlines for each small task.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2016·青岛适应性测试)English songs have been very popular for people around the world for many decades.Singers, from Elvis Presley to Ricky Martin, from the Beatles to Eminen and from Natalie Cole to Britney Spears, have all been sitting in everyone's heart, even for people who don't speak English.But will you have better English skills if you listen to English songs for a long time?
From my experiences, some people listen to English songs for 20－30 years but still haven't accomplished any good English skills.Some people choose English songs to be the “main learning approach”， but most of them have failed.
Listening to English songs does not help you to speak English fluently.It does help you gain some vocabularies.Most of them are unusual ones that you don't use in your everyday life.You won't learn the sentence “It is a complicate project.We really need to meet the deadline.” in any English songs.
People like using English songs to practice English skills because it's easy and enjoyable.They think that sitting in the car listening to English songs day by day can improve their English skills.It is not that actually.
You will not improve your listening skills because normal people don't speak with melody (乐调)．People don't talk like Eminen's songs (well, actually, some teenagers do)．You can't get yourself familiar with English pronunciation or accent just from listening to English songs.The words that they pronounce in the songs are not the words that you will hear in your everyday life.It often even confuses you more how English is pronounced.
I would fully encourage you to watch English movies, listen to radio news or other normal talks, but not music.Of course, you can consume it for fun but not the aim to improve your English skills.
1．What's the text mainly about?
A．How English songs help people practice English skills.
B．Who has made English songs popular all over the world.
C．Why people won't improve their English by listening to English songs.
D．Where people can find good English songs to practise their English skills.
2．English songs are helpful for English learners if they want to ________.
A．speak English fluently
B．enlarge their vocabularies
C．improve their listening skills
D．learn to express themselves in daily life
3．Which of the following won't probably appear in English songs?
A．Country road, take me home.
B．Every night I see you, I feel you.
C．It's not a big big thing if you leave me.
D．We need to meet the deadline though it's tough.
4．We can learn from the text that ________.
A．worldfamous singers have done a lot to help people learn English
B．watching English movies or listening to radio news can be a great help
C．English songs get people familiar with English pronunciation or accent
D．most people who enjoy English songs in their car speak English very well
答案：
解题导语：本文是一篇议论文。作者认为“通过听英语歌曲来提高英语技能”这一做法是不可行的。文中阐述了具体原因，并给出了建议——看电影或听资讯广播会帮助提高英语技能。
1．C 解析：主旨大意题。通过对全文的理解可知，作者认为“通过听英语歌曲来提高英语技能”的做法是不可行的，文中具体论述了这个做法不可行的原因。故选C项。
2．B 解析：细节理解题。根据第三段第一、二句可知，听英语歌曲不会帮助你流利地说英语，但是它确实可以帮助你增加词汇量。故选B项。
3．D 解析：细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句可知，你不会在任何英语歌曲中学习到类似“这是一个复杂的项目。我们真的需要在最后期限之前完成”这样的句子。故选D项。
4．B 解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段第一句可知，作者十分鼓励人们通过看英语电影、听广播资讯或其他正常的对话来练习英语口语而不是听音乐。故选B项。
