Ⅱ.阅读理解
(2017·合肥市第三次质量检测)Today our life and work rarely feel light or pleasant.Instead, the whole experience of being alive begins to melt into huge responsibility.
It becomes the standard greeting everywhere: I am so busy.
We say this to one another with no small degree of pride.The busier we are, the more important we seem to ourselves and, we imagine, to others. To be unavailable to our friends and family, to be unable to find time for the sunset, to speed through our responsibilities without time for a single mindful breath — this has become the model of a successful life.
Because we do not rest, we lose our way. We lose the nourishment (营养) that gives us help. We miss the quiet that gives us wisdom. Poisoned by the belief that good things come only through tireless effort, we never truly rest.
This is not the world we dreamed of when we were young.How did we get so terribly rushed in a world filled with work and responsibility, yet somehow lack of joy and delight?
We have forgotten the Sabbath (安息日). Sabbath is the time to enjoy and celebrate what is beautiful and good — time to light candles, sing songs, tell stories, bless our children and loved ones, give thanks, share meals, nap and walk. It is time to be nourished and refreshed as we let our work, our chores and our important projects lie fallow, trusting that there are larger forces at work taking care of the world when we are at rest.
Sabbath is more than the absence of work. Many of us, in our desperate drive to be successful and care for our many responsibilities, feel terribly guilty when we take time to rest.But the Sabbath has proven its wisdom over the ages. Many of us still recall when, not long ago, shops and offices were closed on Sundays.Those quiet Sunday afternoons remained in our cultural memory.
语篇解读:在如今这个社会中,人们一直以能成为成功人士而自豪,而成功人士的标准之一就是“忙”。难道这真的是成功的标志吗?作者在文章中告诉我们,其实我们更应该享受休闲。
1.Nowadays, when we greet people by saying, “I am so busy”,we feel ________.
A.sorry
B.proud
C.unhappy
D.responsible
解析:细节理解题。由第二段中的“We say this to one another with no small degree of pride”可知,当人们说自己很忙的时候,其实内心是有些自豪感的,no small degree表示“不小的程度”,故选B项。
答案:B
2.If a person lives a successful life, he is expected ________.
A.to be always available to his family and friends
B.to be able to enjoy a leisure holiday
C.to be occupied with too many obligations
D.to become a model for everyone else
解析:推理判断题。由第二段的第三句可推知,如果一个人成功,那就意味着他要承担更多的责任和义务,故C项正确。
答案:C
3.According to the author, we should do the following EXCEPT ________.
A.showing interest in beautiful things
B.having time to get refreshed
C.putting away obligations and resting when necessary
D.believing that good things come only through tireless effort
解析:事实细节题。文章倒数第二段提到了A、B和C项,而D项“好事唯有通过不懈的努力才能获得”与文意不符,故选D。
答案:D
4.We should have Sabbath because ________.
A.it helps us get pleasure in our life
B.we cannot forget we are Christians
C.people don't have to work that day
D.it is embeded in our cultural memory
解析:推理判断题。由倒数第二段中的“Sabbath is the time to enjoy and celebrate...”可知,安息日能让我们放松,身心愉悦,所以选A项。
答案:A
Ⅲ.选做题

Bored at school now?
How do you think it will look in the future? Last week, about 600 teenagers in the U.S. imagined a future changed by technology in which their lessons are taught by robots and they learn about celebrities (名人) and alien languages.
According to a survey published last week by the U.S. ,Internet service provider American Online (AOL), only one in 100 thinks that in the future they will walk from home to school; the rest believe they will use jet packs, and hover boards as everyday transport.
All the participants (参与者) of the survey are teenagers born into the Internet age. The study is to show how the first cyber (网络的) generation dream about a future life created by advanced technology.
Most believe there will still be schools to go to, but that technology will play an increasingly important role in learning. The 600 teens surveyed think there will still be teachers, but 37 percent imagine them to be robots. Some 24 percent believe that teachers will still be human but they will have interchangeable microchips so that one person can teach all subjects.
More than one in two believe hover boarding will be popular, while onethird say that wearing rocket boots will be their favorite activity. Another third think jet packs will be popular. Nearly 30 percent think playing football and bikeriding will remain popular.
When it comes to the curriculum (课程), they think future generations will be learning about robot building (63 percent), alien languages (47 percent) celebrities (26 percent) and R'n'B music (22 percent).
Children will wear virtual reality helmets to bring lessons to life, say 40 percent, while over 20 percent believe they will not need lessons because microchips implanted (植入) in their head will send relevant information into the brain. Matt Whyman, adviser to the chief medical officer on youth issues of AOL, said: “ The kids seem very aware of the liberation qualities of technology.”

Ten Ways to Avoid the Flu
Get a flu shot, particularly if you are 50 or over. In addition, consider a flu shot if you are in regular contact with many people, especially if you live in a dormitory or work in an openplan office, where hundreds of people are coughing and sneezing in a common area.
__1__ One recent study found that families whose children in daycare were immunized had 42% fewer infections with fever than those whose children weren't immunized.
Wash your hands frequently and thoroughly. A quick washing won't do the trick.__2__
Keep your hands away from your face to reduce the chance of delivering viruses directly to your eyes or nose. __3__
Make certain you're getting vitamin E and other complex vitamins and minerals including A, C and B.These have properties (特性) that improve immune response.__4__
Don't smoke. Smoke stops the hair like cells in the nose and airways from sweeping incoming viruses away before they can infect people.
Use paper handkerchiefs, not cloth handkerchiefs to reduce spread of infection.
Reduce stress. Research has shown that immune responses are weakened by stress.
Get seven to nine hours of sleep a night. Lack of sleep can reduce your immune response.
__5__ Longtime heavy drinkers suffer from more colds and flu than others do, and even regular moderate use of alcohol can weaken immune response.
A.Children who are in a large family are easy to get a flu.
B.To kill germs, experts recommend washing with soap for 15 to 30 seconds.
C.One study found that people typically touched their face fifteen times in an hour.
D.Many people are used to touching their faces when the flu is spreading.
E.Discuss with your doctor whether to immunize (使免疫) your children in daycare.
F.Studies on older mice have shown that those with reduced levels of vitamin E were more likely to be infected.
G.Reduce alcohol consumption (消费量).
