  (2016·哈尔滨市第三中学一模)Babies don't learn to talk just from hearing sounds. They are lip­readers too. It happens during the stage when a baby's babbling (咿呀声) gradually changes from unclear voices into that first “mama” or “dada”. The baby in order to do like you has to figure out how to shape their lips to make that particular sound they are hearing, according to developmental psychologist David Lewkowicz of Florida Atlantic University, who led the study.

  Apparently it doesn't take them too long to absorb the movements that match basic sounds. By their first birthdays, babies start changing back to look you in the eye again. It offers more evidence that quality face­time with babies is very important for speech development more than, say, turning on the latest baby DVD.

  But Lewkowicz went a step further. He and his student Amy Hansen­Tift tested nearly 180 babies, groups of them at ages 4,6,8,10 and 12 months. How? They showed videos of a woman speaking in English or Spanish to babies of English speakers. They found that when the speaker used English, the 4­month­olds gazed mostly into her eyes. The 6­month­olds spent equal amounts of time looking at the eyes and the mouth. The 8­and 10­month­olds studied mostly the mouth. At 12 months, attention started changing back toward the speaker's eyes.

  But what happened when these babies accustomed to English heard Spanish? The 12­month­olds studied the mouth longer, just like younger babies. They needed the extra information to recognize the unfamiliar sounds. That fits with research into bilingualism (双语) that shows babies' brains adjust themselves to distinguishing the sounds of their native language over other languages in the first year of life.

  The continued lip­reading shows the 1­year­olds clearly still are fit for learning. Babies are so hard to study that this is “a fairly heroic data set”, says Duke University cognitive neuroscientist Greg Appelbaum, who found the research so fascinating that he wants to know more.

  语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一项科学发现:婴儿不仅仅通过听声音来学习说话,他们还会通过观察说话者的口型来学习讲话。

  1.According to the first paragraph, babies________.

  A.might get its voice “mama” by lip­reading

  B.learn to talk just from hearing the sounds

  C.like to figure out how to shape their lips

  D.communicate with parents through gestures

  解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第一段第二、三句可知,婴儿可能会通过读唇的方式发出“mama”的声音。故答案选A。

  2.What is necessary in developing babies' speech according to Lewkowicz?

  A.Playing baby DVD nearby.

  B.Teaching babies to read English.

  C.Speaking with babies face to face.

  D.Speaking different languages in front of babies.

  解析:选C 推理判断题。根据第一段最后一句“The baby in order to do ...who led the study.”及第二段第三句“It offers more evidence ...important for speech development”可推知,在婴儿的语言发展阶段,跟婴儿面对面讲话是有必要的。故答案选C。

  3.Which of the following shows the right change of babies' eye gaze according to the text?

  解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第三段最后四句“They found that ...the speaker's eyes.”并结合所给选项可知,A项坐标图符合文中的描述。故答案选A。

  4.What would be the best title of the text?

  A.Babies Have Different Methods to Talk

  B.Babies Try Lip­reading in Learning to Talk

  解析:选B 标题归纳题。纵观全文,文章主要介绍了一项科学发现:婴儿不仅仅通过听声,还通过观察说话者的口型来学习说话。B项概括了文章主旨。故答案选B。

  (2016·烟台二中高三期中考试)

  “Made in China” has Changed

  Many shoppers in the West still prize labels, boasting (吹嘘) a product was made in Italy without knowing that a growing number of Italian products come from factories that are Chinese­owned and staffed. The products which were marked “Made in China” gave the buyer an impression of “low pride and low cost, low technology and development”. The statement used to be true, but now it has changed.

  “Made in China” is becoming a leading part in the world market. China's garment industry (制衣业) has been investing in producing technology and training for decades, and its workforce has collectively gotten better at sewing garments. As a result, the quality of Chinese­made clothes is rising fast. It has been home to a highly­skilled, highly­specialized garment industry, one that supplies even some high­end (高端的) labels and offers the best mix of price, speed, and quality.

  “If I was to make a basic men's jean, I'd make that in Pakistan,” said Edward Hertzman, co­owner of the trade publication Sourcing Journal. “If I was going to make a fashionable women's garment, I would move to China because their skill set is better, their hand is better, their finishing is better, and they can handle that type of fashion.”

  Indeed, luxury fashion labels now routinely make things in China. Burberry, Armani, and Prada have all produced things there, because they're still able to get good workmanship at a relatively low price. Even the Japanese brand Visvim, known for its crazy attention to detail, also produces high­end, handmade footwear in China.

  Despite the rising wages and costs of doing business in China, companies have not walked away. “China is viewed by people who make buying decisions as unique and hard to copy elsewhere,” says Josh Green, CEO of Panjiva.

  语篇解读:本文是议论文。文章讨论了“中国制造”发生的变化。中国制造从过去的低端、廉价、质量不高正逐渐向现在的高端、价高、质优上转变。

  5.Which of the following is NOT true about “Made in China”?

  A.It used to be associated with poor quality.

  B.It has lost its leading status in the world market.

  C.Its products are recognized by luxury fashion brands.

  (2016·太原市第二学段测评)The saying “a penny for your thoughts” is an English idiom simply asking people to volunteer their opinions on an issue being discussed. In modern usage, it is often stated as an indirect way of asking what someone is thinking about.

  This phrase is basically a proposal (提议), and the speaker is offering to pay to hear the listener's thoughts. It is an idiom, of course, and not meant literally (字面上地) so no real payment generally takes place.

  When the saying originated, a penny was worth a lot more than it is in the 21st century.Therefore, “a penny for your thoughts” likely indicated the thoughts were more valuable to those asking the listener for them than they are by today's standards. This loss of value can be used ironically (讽刺地), however, through tone (语气) of voice; it can be used to indicate that someone's idea is bad or worth a penny in modern value.

  The phrase is generally credited to a man by the name of John Heywood, who was born sometime just before the 16th century. During his life, he was a writer who penned many plays and a book in 1546, later known as The Proverbs of John Heywood. It is likely that Heywood did not actually come up with the phrase “a penny for your thoughts”. Rather, he was simply the first person to have set the phrase down in written form. The actual origins of the term are unknown, and since his book was simply a collection of common idioms and expressions, it was probably familiar to people in the mid 1500s.

  Another phrase similar to “a penny for your thoughts”is offering “your two cents” after making a statement. Someone might give his or her opinion and then say, “that's my two cents,” to indicate the value of his or her idea. While, much like a penny, “two cents” is relatively low in value now, it would have been more valuable at one time and the expression is used in much the same way.

  语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一个习语。

  9.When someone says “a penny for your thoughts”, he or she________.

  A.wants to ask you for advice

  B.considers your thoughts unique

  C.is curious about what's on your mind

  D.will pay for what you're thinking about

  解析:选C 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“asking people to volunteer their opinions on an issue being discussed”和“asking what someone is thinking about”可知答案。

  10.The modern meaning of

  “a penny for your thoughts” ________.

  A.is more closely connected to the value of the penny

  B.can differ greatly according to a speaker's tone of voice

  C.can confuse the listener easily

  D.is more popularly accepted

  解析:选B 推理判断题。根据第三段内容可知,由于便士的价值在古代和现在相差甚远,因此现在也可以用“a penny for your thoughts”来表达对方的主意一文不值,也就是说,根据说话人的语气,这个习语的意思大相径庭。

  11.In what way is Heywood related to the phrase “a penny for your thoughts”?

  A.He came up with it while he was writing.

  B.He helped to explain the origins of it.

  C.He contributed to the wide use of it.

  D.He was the first person to use it.

  解析:选C 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“he was simply the first person to have set the phrase down in written form”和“his book was simply a collection of common idioms ...the mid 1500s”可推测,Heywood 由于将“a penny for your thoughts”这个习语编写到自己关于常用习语和表达的书籍中,从而使得这个习语被人们所熟知。因此,他间接推广了这个习语的应用。

  12.What do we know about the phrase “your two cents”?

  A.It is usually used at the end of a statement.

  B.It comes from “a penny for your thoughts”.

  C.It has witnessed some changes since the 16th century.

  D.It is more familiar to people than “a penny for your thoughts”.

  解析:选A 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“offering ‘your two cents’ after making a statement”可知答案。

  (限时:35分钟)

  Ⅰ.阅读理解

  (2016·江西赣州高三摸底考试)It is a familiar scene these days: employees taking newly laid­off (下岗) co­workers out for a drink for comfort. But which side deserves sympathy more, the jobless or the still employed? On March 6, researchers at a conference at the University of Cambridge heard data suggesting it's the latter.

  Brendan Burchell, a Cambridge sociologist, presented his analysis based on various surveys conducted across Europe. The data suggest that employed people who feel insecure in their jobs show similar levels of anxiety and depression as those who are unemployed. Although a newly jobless person's mental health may “bottom out” after about six months, and then even begin to improve,the mental state of people who are continuously worried about losing their job “just continues to get worse and worse,” Burchell says.

  Evolutionary psychologists support this theory by arguing that human beings feel more stress during times of insecurity because they sense an immediate but invisible threat. Patients have been known to experience higher levels of anxiety, for example, while waiting for examination results than knowing what they are suffering from — even if the result is cancer. It's better to get the bad news and start doing something about it rather than wait with anxiety. When the uncertainty continues, people stay in a nonstop “fight or flight” response, which leads to damaging stress.

  But not every employee in insecure industries has such a discouraging view, Burchell says. In general, women get on better. While reporting higher levels of anxiety than men when directly questioned, women scored lower in stress on the GHQ 12, even when they had a job they felt insecure about losing. As Burchell explains, “For women, most studies show that any job — it doesn't matter whether it is secure or insecure — gives psychological improvement over unemployment.” Burchell supposes that the difference in men is that they tend to feel pressure not only to be employed, but also to be the primary breadwinner, and that more of a man's self­worth depends on his job.

  语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。研究人员发现与下岗职工相比,在职人员更值得同情,因为担心工作是否稳定、自身的价值能否体现等一系列的心理压力笼罩着他们,让他们的身心备受煎熬。

  1.Why do researchers think the still employed deserve sympathy more?

  A.They have to do more work since then.

  B.They have no chance to find better jobs.

  C.They have to work with inexperienced workers.

  D.They constantly worry about losing their job.

  解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句中“the mental state of people who are continuously worried about losing their job ‘just continues to get worse and worse’”可知,研究者之所以认为在职人员更值得同情,是因为在职人员一直处于担心会失去工作的状态中,而且他们的情况会越来越糟。故答案选D。

  2.What is most likely to cause a “fight or flight” response?A.Not having a paid job.

  B.Fierce competition for jobs.

  C.Not knowing what will happen.

  D.Pressure to work longer hours.

  解析:选C 细节理解题。结合第三段内容尤其是该段最后一句可知,当不确定性持续下去时,人们会处于一种持续的“战或逃”的反应中,而这会导致损害性压力的产生,故“战或逃”的反应是由不确定会发生什么而引起的。故答案选C。

  3.What will the writer talk about following the last paragraph?

  A.Advice on preparing a job interview.

  B.Advice to those in insecure industries.

  C.Some knowledge of psychology.

  D.Difference in men and women.

  解析:选B 推理判断题。首先结合全文内容可知,文章主要讲述了与下岗职工相比,在职人员更值得同情,因为他们担心会失去工作,这种长久焦虑的精神状态让他们倍感压力。作者陈述了这种现象并分析了其产生的原因,由常理可知,接下来应该谈到给这些焦虑的人们的一些建议或忠告,以帮助他们减缓压力。故答案选B。

  4.What could be the best title for the text?

  A.Is It Less Stressful to Get Laid Off Than Stay On?

  B.Should Greater Sympathy Be Given to the Jobless?

  C.Do Employees Bear More Stress Than Ever Before?

  D.Do Men or Women Show Higher Levels of Anxiety?

  解析:选A 标题归纳题。通读全文可知,本文将在职人员与失业人员的心理健康情况进行比较,主要是为了说明在职人员因持续担心会失去工作而倍感压抑。故答案选A。

  Ⅱ.阅读七选五

  (2016·昆明质量检测二)There is an old Spanish saying which states, “Tomorrow is often the busiest day of the week.” How many times have we put off our dreams until tomorrow? __1__ We have to go for them now!

  ● Tomorrow is not promised.

  Nobody likes to talk about death, but everybody is going to die at one point. None of us know the day or the hour. __2__ Don't go to your tomb with unrealized dreams. Make the decision to go after every dream, big or small right now.

  ● __3__

  One of the biggest dream killers is fear. Many people could have achieved amazing things if only they weren't afraid. Just think about all the things you've wanted to do, but allowed fear to convince you that you weren't talented, or good enough. Fear is not real. It is a product of thoughts you create.

  ● Take action to realize your dream.

  You can dream about writing a great play, but it's never going to happen unless you actually put pen to paper. You can dream about finding a cure for cancer, but it will never happen unless you actually become equipped with the necessary tools to find that cure. __4__

  ● Possibilities are waiting on you.

  There are so

  many amazing opportunities and people waiting on you. How do you get to them? Simple! Follow your dream. __5__ You'll never see those doors if you sit around waiting on a dream to happen, instead of actually working to make it happen.

  A.Don't let fear win.

  B.In other words, dreams don't work unless you do.

  C.Our dreams should not, and cannot wait.

  D.Therefore, today is all we have.

  E.You'll be much happier if you go for it.

  F.You were born into the world with a unique gift, which nobody can copy.

  G.Doors that you couldn't imagine open up when you go after what you want.

  答案:1~5 CDABG

What Laure did not __5__ was that during her day away, I'd also be doing a lot of housework.

  “Laure,” I called, “come here a minute.”

  She wandered to my doorway. I had decided to have her __12__ me when I was too devoted to work. I wanted her to have the __13__ to let me know when she thought I was cold.

  “Whenever you feel I'm ignoring you or you need my __16__, I want you to __17__ me,” I said. “Just come up and give me a little hug. That'll be our signal that you __18__ me.”

  3.“It looks as_if it'll go under soon,” Jim said, after a couple of minutes.

  几分钟后,吉姆说:“看起来它好像很快就要沉下去了。”

  ①It seems as_if/though the boy has lost his way.

  那个男孩好像迷路了。

  (2)as if还可引导状语从句。当说话人认为从句所陈述的是不真实的或不可能发生(存在)的情况时,从句谓语常用虚拟语气,结构如下:

  与现在事实相反 从句谓语动词用过去时(be动词用were)

  (2016·河南省普通高中毕业班适应性测试)Philip was a junior office assistant in a large company. He was quite ambitious, so he was keen to make a good__1__(impress) on the boss. He often stayed late at the office, to show__2__ committed and hardworking he was. One evening, he was just__3  to go home when he saw his boss__4 (stand) in front of the shredder (碎纸机), holding a document.

  “Ah, Philip! I'm glad you're still here in the office!”said the boss,“Good__5__(see) all your hard work and professionalism. Now I wonder if you could help me.”

  “Of course,” replied Philip.“It's no trouble.”

  “Good man! You see, my secretary has already gone home__6__I haven't got a clue how this thing works. It's so important that I have to get this done before tomorrow. If you__7 (can) do this one more thing before you go home, I'd__8 (real) appreciate it.”

  “No problem,” said Philip, __9__(happy) to be asked to do such a simple job.

  He took the document from his boss, turned on the machine, inserted the document and pressed the start button.

  “That's excellent,” said the boss, as the document vanished into the shredder. “I just need two__10__(copy).”

  语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了Philip帮不会操作机器的老板把文件放入了碎纸机,而老板却说“给我复印两份”的幽默故事。

  1.impression  make a good impression on sb.是固定短语,意为“给某人留下好印象”。

  2.how 句意:他经常在办公室里待到很晚,以此来显示他是多么地敬业和勤奋。“committed”和“hardworking”是形容词,所以用副词how修饰,表示程度。

  3.about 固定句型 be about to do sth. when ...意为“正要做某事时突然……”。故填 about。

  4.standing 动词see后通常接动词原形或现在分词作宾语补足语,此处表示正在发生的动作,所以用现在分词作宾语补足语。

  5.to see 分析句子结构可知,形容词“Good”前省略了it is,所以用动词不定式作真正的主语。

  6.and 分析句子结构可知,此处用连词and连接两个并列的句子。

  7.could 根据主句中的谓语动词可知,此处是指与现在事实相反的虚拟,所以if引导的条件状语从句中的谓语动词要用一般过去时。故填could。

  8.really 应用副词修饰动词“appreciate”。real的副词形式为 really。

  9.happy 根据语境可知,Philip很高兴被要求做这样简单的工作。分析句子结构可知,空格处用形容词happy作状语,表伴随。

  10.copies 根据数词“two”可知,此处名词应使用复数形式。copy的复数形式为copies。

  参考范文:

  As a senior three student, I often imagine what I will be doing in the future. Talking of my dream job, I expect to be an English teacher for the following reasons.

  First, I'm an energetic outgoing girl/boy with great patience. That's what makes a qualified teacher, in my opinion. Besides, I am crazy about the English language, and I am doing quite well. Above all, teachers are generally respected and well­paid. With two vacations each year, I may enjoy more relaxing time. As a responsible girl/boy, I hope to take up a job which is beneficial to society. Being a good teacher may influence more students to shoulder their responsibilities and contribute to their country.

  In short, I'll work even harder to become a popular English teacher.

  (2016·莱芜一中高三段考)Many experts say that Billy Wilder changed the history of American movies. He is often called the best movie maker Hollywood has ever had.

During that time he received more than twenty nominations (提名) from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. He won six of the Oscar awards. His movies have been seen by people around the world.

  In 1944, Billy Wilder made the film Double Indemnity. Some critics said this movie established him as one of the greatest Hollywood directors. Wilder directed The Lost Weekend in 1945. Ray Milland plays the part of an alcoholic writer in the movie. It shows that alcohol rules his life, yet he does not admit it. He hides alcohol in his home and says he is not drinking.

  In 1950, Wilder made Sunset Boulevard. This movie told of an aging actress in silent movies. She plans to return to movies though facing many problems. In 1954, Billy Wilder became an independent producer. The next year, Wilder's first movie as an independent filmmaker was a huge success. It was Seven Year Itch. In this movie, a married mailman wants to cheat on his wife with some of his friends. In 1959, Wilder made a funny movie that was very popular. It was Some Like It Hot. It tells about two jazz musicians being chased by criminals. They decide to wear women's clothes and join a band in which all the musicians were women.

  Wilder died in March, 2002. He was ninety­five. A current Hollywood producer said: “Billy Wilder made movies that people will never forget.”

  (2016·济南市高考模拟)In our comparison­soaked (攀比成风的) culture, it's hard to avoid slipping into “Why can't I?” mode. When one of my colleagues who I think is not better than me published a new book, I couldn't help complaining how unachievable it seemed to me and what bad luck I had. Negative feelings like this made life dark for us.__1__ Here's what I learned:

  Don't compare your insides to someone else's outsides.

  The first time I heard this excellent advice, I was suffering from terrible envy. My professor's warning shocked me that “You have no idea what it took for them to get there. Don't just owe it to pure luck. __2__”

  She was absolutely right, yet it's much easier to envy what they've got than to ask the serious questions: What are they modeling for me? What have they done to get where they are today? __3__

  Transform comparison into celebration.

  Admiration and envy are responses pointing us toward what we value most. __4__ If you notice yourself admiring people who take creative risks, bring your full attention to the part of you that wants to be braver.

  __5__

  Next time you catch yourself admiring or envying someone's success, take a moment to consider: What qualities in them inspire me? Where do I presently display these qualities? Remember the light we see in others can help us see our own!

  A.Use the success of others as a mirror.

  B.Learn to appreciate others' shining points.

  C.How to get rid of the harmful effects of comparison needs exploring.

  D.However, there is no doubt that good luck can't be ignored.

  E.Instead, you should find out what's really going on behind the scenes.

  F.And once we become aware of what we value, we are much better positioned to create a richly satisfying life.

  G.When we reflect on these questions, we shift immediately out of comparison mode and turn inwards.

  (2016·石家庄高三教学质检二)If your parents were to surprise you with a present on your birthday, which one would you prefer, a trip to the amusement park or a new pair of shoes?

  According to Science Daily, about one­third of the people are likely to prefer shoes to a fun trip. These people are called “materialists”, namely, those who value material goods more than experiences. But which of the two choices makes people happier?

  Back in 2009, Ryan Howell, a professor at San Francisco State University, found that in the long run, experiences make people happier than possessions. This is because the joy of receiving a new object fades over time as you get used to seeing it every day. Experiences, on the other hand, can continue to bring you joy in the future through happy memories.

  But materialists should at least be happy when they first buy something, shouldn't they?

  To figure it out, Howell did another study. He classified a group of adults according to their personality types, ranging from less materialistic to more materialistic. Each person was asked different questions to see how they felt about spending money on material goods versus spending money on experiences.

  As expected, the more materialistic participants got less happiness from purchases than the less materialistic, because such purchases didn't fit with their personalities and values. But to Howell's surprise, he found that materialists weren't any happier even if they spent money on material items.

  This is because materialists worry that others may criticize or look down on their choices. “There are certain value systems that are rejected by society,” said Howell. “When we find out someone is materialistic, we think less of them, and that drives their happiness down.”

  Another reason is that materialistic people always focus on what they don't have instead of what they have now. This makes them feel less satisfied and grateful.

  If you happen to be a materialistic person, there's something you can try. “If materialists make more accurate purchases, rather than trying to impress others, they will be happier,” Howell said.

  You should also remember what an ancient Greek philosopher once said, “Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for.”

  语篇解读:本文是一篇议论文。作者通过引用 Ryan Howell 的研究结果证实经历比有形物质更能给人带来快乐。

  1.What did Ryan Howell find in his studies?

  A.Material goods bring people less happiness than experiences.

  B.About one­third of the people prefer material goods to experiences.

  C.Materialists have more fun spending money on goods than on experiences.

  D.Receiving a new object brings lasting joy while the joy of an experience fades soon.

  解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“... found that in the long run, experiences make people happier than possessions”可知,经历比物品更能使人感到高兴。根据第六段中的“the more materialistic participants got less happiness from purchases than the less materialistic”可知,比较倾向物质主义的参与者比不太倾向物质主义的参与者从购物中得到的快乐更少。由此可见, Ryan Howell 在他的研究中发现:有形物质比经历给人带来的快乐更少。因此,该题选A。

  2.What did Ryan Howell want to find out by doing another study?

  A.How to judge whether a person is a materialist.

  B.Why materialists are not happy with their purchases.

  C.How materialists feel when they spend money on goods.

  D.Whether materialists are happy when they first make purchases.

  解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第四段“But materialists should at least be happy when they first buy something, shouldn't they?”及第五段第一句“To figure it out, Howell did another study.”可知该题选D。

  3.Why does the author use the ancient Greek philosopher's words in the last paragraph?

  A.To advise materialistic people not to try to impress others.

  B.To persuade people to be satisfied with what they have.

  C.To prove it's unwise to be materialistic and desire too much.

  D.To tell readers what they desire now might one day become theirs.

  解析:选B 推理判断题。根据最后一段中那位哲学家的话“不要因期望你没有的东西而毁掉了你现在拥有的东西。记住:你现在拥有的东西就在你曾经渴望得到的东西之中”,再结合上文 Ryan Howell 研究得出的结论可知,作者引用这位哲学家的话旨在说服人们要对目前拥有的事物感到知足。因此,该题选B。

  4.What can be the best title for the passage?

  A.Are You a Materialist?

  B.How To Acquire Happiness?

  C.The Best Present for the Birthday

  D.Which Can Make People Happier?

  解析:选D 标题归纳题。通读全文可知,作者通过引用 Ryan Howell 的研究结果证实经历比有形物质更能给人带来快乐,故D项作文章标题最佳。

  (2016·甘肃省高三第一次诊断)College is not just about studying, writing essays and burning the midnight oil in the library. Making friends and enjoying yourself is also necessary for the courses. Parties are social events for students to gather and chat with each other.

  Drinking and music College parties in the US are always lacking in creativity and full of wine and music. The basic form rarely changes — drink until you cannot anymore and play loud music at an earth­shaking volume. There is plenty of beer involved, and some mixed cocktails.

  Creativity in dress The creativity comes in how parties are dressed up. Parties often have a specific theme, like a 90s party or a sports party. At a 90s party, guests might show up dressed like once­famous celebrities. At a sports party, guests might wear their favorite team's uniforms.

  Held in apartments The party is usually held in the apartment of a particular outgoing friend. Everyone will be invited, which means strangers will wander in and out of the apartment where you can get to know and make some new friends.

  Ugly sweater party On holidays, parties frequently take on a proper theme. A popular theme around Christmas is the ugly sweater party. The goal is to wear the ugliest sweater you can find, creating an atmosphere of fun.

  Whatever the occasion is, there will be no shortage of booze. If you are smart enough, you won't have so much as to lose your consciousness. Parties are always better when you can remember them the next day.

  (2016·郑州市高中毕业年级质量预测)“A photograph that one has taken of oneself, typically with a smart phone or webcam and uploaded to a social media website” is the definition of “selfie” in the Oxford English Dictionary. In fact, it wasn't even in the dictionary until August of 2017. It earned its place there because people are now so obsessed with (对……痴迷) selfies — we take them when we try on a new hat, play with our pets or when we meet a friend whom we haven't seen in a while.

  But is there any scientific explanation for this obsession? Well, you should probably ask James Kilner, a neuroscientist (神经系统科学家) at University College London.

  Through our lifetime we become experts at recognizing and interpreting other people's faces and facial expressions. In contrast, according to Kilner, we have a very poor understanding of our own faces since we have little experience of looking at them — we just feel them most of the time.

  This has been proved in previous studies, according to the BBC.

  Kilner found that most people chose the more attractive picture. This suggests that we tend to think of ourselves as better­looking than we actually are. To further test how we actually perceive our own faces, Kilner carried out another study. He showed people different versions of their own portrait — the original, one that had been edited to look less attractive and one that was made more attractive — and asked them to pick the version which they thought looked most like them. They chose the more attractive version.

  But what does it say about selfies? Well, isn't that obvious? Selfies give us the power to create a photograph — by taking it from various angles, with different poses, using filters (滤色镜) and so on — that better matches our expectations with our actual faces.

  “You suddenly have control in a way that you don't have in non­virtual (非虚拟的) interactions,” Kilner told the Canada­based CTV News. Selfies allow you “to keep taking pictures until you manage to take one you're happy with”, he explained.

  语篇解读:本文是一篇研究报告。分析了人们喜欢自拍的原因。

  9.What is the passage mainly about?

  A.The definition and fun of taking selfies.

  B.A study of why people love taking selfies.

  C.How taking selfies influences people's daily lives.

  D.How to interpret people's facial expressions in their selfies.

  解析:选B 主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章从不同角度分析了人们喜欢自拍的原因。故B项正确。

  10.The underlined word “perceive” in Paragraph 5 can be replaced by “________”.

  A.interpret 

  B.beautify

  C.choose

  D.explain

  解析:选A 词义猜测题。根据语境可知,大多数人选择的是更有魅力的照片,这表明我们都喜欢把自己想象得比实际更漂亮一些。为了进一步测试我们实际上如何“认知”自己的脸部,Kilner又进行了另一项研究,即把不同的照片进行编辑,一张忠实于本人,一张更具魅力,他们往往会选择后者。此处perceive与下文中的“thought”相照应,意为“理解,认知”。故A项正确。

  11.According to Kilner, people like taking selfies probably because they think ________.

  A.it is a good chance to learn more about their actual faces

  B.it is a way to respond to others' facial expressions correctly

  C.it enables them to interact with their friends in social media

  D.it allows them to satisfy their expectations with their appearances

  解析:选D 细节理解题。根据最后两段中的“that better matches our expectations with our actual faces”和“Selfies allow you ‘to keep taking pictures until you manage to take one you're happy with’”可知,自拍能够让我们实际的容貌与期望的一致,即满足对于自我容貌的期待。故D项正确。

  “阅读+七选五+完形”组合练——练题型

  (限时:35分钟)

  Ⅰ.阅读理解

  (2016·洛阳高三模拟)If you think that running marathons will help you live a long and healthy life, new research may come as a shock. According to a recent scientific study, people who do a very strenuous workout are as likely to die as people who do no exercise at all.

  Scientists in Denmark have been studying over 1,000 joggers and non­joggers for 12 years. The death rates from the sample group indicate that people who jog at a moderate pace two or three times a week for less than two and a half hours in total are least likely to die. The best speed to jog at was found to be about 5 miles per hour. The research suggests that people who jog more than three times a week or at higher speeds of over 7 mph die at the same rate as non­joggers. The scientists think that this is because strenuous exercise causes structural changes to the heart and arteries (动脉). Over time, this can cause serious injuries.

  Peter Schnohr, a researcher in Copenhagen, said, “If your goal is to decrease risk of death and improve life expectancy, jogging a few times a week at a moderate pace is a good strategy. Anything more is just unnecessary, and it may be harmful.”

  The implications of this are that moderate forms of exercise such as tai chi, yoga and brisk walking may be better for us than “iron man” events, triathlons and long­distance running and cycling. According to Jacob Louis Marott, another researcher involved in the study,“You don't actually have to do that much to have a good impact on your health.And perhaps you shouldn't actually do too much.”

  语篇解读:本文是一篇科普说明文。最新的一项科学研究显示:从事剧烈运动的人与根本不锻炼的人死亡几率是一样的,而适度的锻炼会有益于健康。

  1.The underlined word “strenuous” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to “________”.

  A.hard

  B.regular

  C.practical

  D.flexible

  解析:选A 词义猜测题。此处指像马拉松一样的锻炼,所以strenuous应与hard意思相近,表示“艰苦的,费力的”。regular“定时的”;practical“实用的”;flexible“灵活的”。

  2.The author presents some figures in Paragraph 2 to ________.

  A.suggest giving up jogging

  B.show risks of doing sports

  C.provide supportive evidence

  D.introduce the research process

  解析:选C 写作目的题。作者在第二段中采用了列数字的方法,是为了提供支持的证据,能更有力地说明第一段的研究结论。

  3.According to the scientists, why is too much exercise harmful?

  A.It may injure the heart and arteries.

  B.It can make the body tired out.

  C.It will bring much pressure.

  D.It consumes too much energy.

  解析:选A 细节理解题。根据第二段的最后两句“The scientists think that this is because strenuous exercise causes structural changes to the heart and arteries (动脉). Over time, this can cause serious injuries.”可知,剧烈运动会导致心脏和动脉结构发生变化,从而有损健康。

  4.What can be inferred from the text?

  A.Jogging is the best exercise.

  B.More exercise means a healthier life.

  C.Marathons runners are least likely to die.

  D.Proper exercise contributes to good health.

  解析:选D 推理判断题。根据最后两段可知,过度锻炼不仅没有必要,而且还可能有害,适当的锻炼会有助于健康。

  Ⅱ.阅读七选五

  (2016·郑州市高中毕业年级质量预测)Although most games have winners and losers, the goal of sports is not to win every game. The real goals include getting exercise, having fun, and learning important social skills, like good sportsmanship.

  Good sportsmanship is all about respect. Good sports (具有运动家品格的人) respect the other players on their team. They respect the players on opposing teams. They respect their coaches, and they also respect the referees or other officials involved in their games.__1__ They yell at their teammates and they talk back to coaches or referees.

  Kids usually learn sportsmanship — good and bad — from the adults in their lives.__2__ If parents and coaches show disrespect to other fans, referees, or each other, kids will likely act the same way on the field.

  __3__ Some of them are very basic and easy to do, like shaking hands with other players before a game. Other examples may take a little more courage, such as acknowledging a great play made by the opposing team.

  Learning good sportsmanship is important because it helps you develop an attitude of graciousness (礼貌) and respect that will carry over into all the other areas of your life.__4__ Being a good sport in the classroom will eventually lead to being a good sport in the workplace.

  So be a good sport in whatever you do!__5__ When others see you acting in a way that makes it clear that win­ning isn't the most important thing, you can move on to focusing on the important things, like having fun, getting exercise, and improving your skills!

  A.Good sportsmanship can be shown in many ways.

  B.On the contrary, bad sportsmanship is all about disrespect.

  C.The example you set can be a powerful teaching tool for others.

  D.Players' parents and coaches set examples that kids tend to follow.

  E.We can be good sports by encouraging others but not laughing at them.

  F.Starting as a good sport earlier will help you be a good sport as you get old.

  G.If you're a good sport on the field, you'll also likely be a good sport in the classroom.

  语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文,描述了一只小鸡为了生存与各种困难顽强抗争的故事。

  1.A.raised 

  B.purchased

  2.A.hopeful

  B.proper

  C.possible

  D.unlikely

  解析:选D 根据空前的“she was tiny and sick”可知,小鸡生病了而且还很弱小,故此处是说她似乎不太可能活下来。hopeful“有希望的”;proper“恰当的”; possible“可能的”;unlikely“不大可能的”。

  3.A.touch

  B.care

  C.gift

  D.partner

  解析:选B 根据“many of the chickens were sick”可判断出,因为没有得到适当的照顾,很多小鸡才会生病甚至一些不幸死亡。touch“触摸”;care“照顾”;gift“礼物”;partner“搭档”。

  8.A.cost

  B.rate

  C.standard

  D.value

  解析:选B 根据本文第一句提到的“small stature (身高)”以及上一句提到的“last to __7__ food and attention”可以判断, Aurora 生长的速度慢于她的兄弟姐妹们,所以个子小。cost“成本”;rate“速度”;standard“标准”;value“价值”。

  9.A.for

  B.around

  D.against

  解析:选D 根据上文的叙述可知,Aurora 的生活不如意,因此一切似乎都在和她作对。 against“逆,反对”,符合语境。

  解析:选C Aurora 已经失去了两个妈妈,她需要努力找栖身之处。struggle“拼搏,努力”,符合语境。

  12.A.unless

  16.A.nervous

  B.amazed

  C.excited

  D.disappointed

  解析:选B 根据文章的第一句“Don't let Aurora's small stature (身高) fool you — her spirit is strong.”可知,我们为 Aurora 只要活着的热情而感到惊讶。nervous “紧张的”;amazed“惊奇的”;excited“兴奋的,激动的”;disappointed“失望的”。

  19.A.waked

  B.made

  C.recovered

  D.learned

  解析:选C 本句话的三个并列谓语都是 Aurora 的经历,所以选择 recovered 与“from serious illnesses”搭配。

  20.A.chances

No chains, no cages. __2__was obvious that the elephants could, at any time, break __3__from their bonds but for some reason, they did not.

  He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and made no attempt __4__ (get) away. “Well,”__5__ trainer said, “when they are very young and much __6__ (small), we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it's enough to hold them. As they grow up, they are conditioned to believe the rope __7__ still hold them, so they never try to run free.”

  语篇解读:本文是一篇夹叙夹议文,通过大象被绳子拴住却不挣脱的现象告诉我们:不要固步自封,不要因为担心失败而放弃拼搏。

  1.tied 大象仅由一根系在前腿的小绳拴住。rope和tie之间是动宾关系,故此处用过去分词表被动。

  2.It 显而易见,大象在任何时候都能够挣脱绳子。分析句子成分可知,It在句中作形式主语,that引导的从句是真正的主语。

  3.away break away from ...“从……突然挣脱,从……逃脱”。

  4.to get 他看见附近有位驯兽师,就问为什么这些动物只是站在那里而不试图逃跑呢?make an attempt to do sth.“试图做某事”。

  5.the 这位驯兽师说:“当它们还年幼、较小时,我们使用同样大小的绳子拴住它们。”此处用定冠词the表示特指。

  6.smaller much修饰形容词比较级。

  7.can 当它们长大时,它们就习惯性地认为绳子依然能够拴住它们。此处用情态动词can表示一般的能力。

  8.because 这些大象在任何时候都能够挣脱绳子,但是因为它们认为不能,所以它们就待在原处。

  9.hanging 此处应用现在分词作伴随状语。

  (2016·南昌市高三一模)Two weeks before

  Christmas, two little girls were walking down the street __1__ they saw old Harry, who was on his knees pulling weeds around a tree.

  He wore a pair of worn gloves. His fingers were sticking out __2__ the ends, blue from the cold. They stopped to talk to him.

  Harry told them he __3__ (get) the yard in shape as a Christmas gift for his mother, who had died several years before. “My mother was all I had. She loved her yard and trees, so I do this for her every Christmas.”

  His words touched the girls and soon they __4__ (join) him, pulling weeds. When they finished, Harry pressed a coin into each of their hands. “I wish I could pay you more, but that's all I've got right now,” he said.

  The girls had often passed his house, and they remembered that it had always been __5__ poor condition. No decorations to add cheeriness were anywhere in sight.

  As they walked on, the coin in one little girl's hand seemed to burn a hole of __6__ (guilty). The next day she called her friends __7__ they agreed to put their coins in a jar marked “Harry's Christmas Gift”. Then they began to seek out small jobs to earn more. Every coin they earned went into the jar.

  Finally, they had enough __8__ (buy) new gloves. On Christmas Eve they were on Harry's doorstep singing carols. They presented him with the gloves. With __9__ (tremble) hands, he held the gloves to his face and wept. No doubt he once again felt __10__ love of others as the girls reached out to him.

  语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了两个小女孩圣诞节前用自己微薄的力量帮助他人的感人故事。

  1.when 根据固定句型be doing ... when ...可知,应用连词when。

  2.of/from/through 根据语境可知,Harry的手指头从破旧的手套中露了出来。

  3.was getting/would get 根据语境可知,两个女孩停下来和Harry交谈,问他为什么要这么做,于是Harry告诉了她们自己的打算,故表示将来的事情,即用过去将来时was getting/would get。

  4.joined 根据“and”的提示可知,前后时态应一致,故用一般过去时,与“touched”呼应。

  5.in 根据固定短语搭配in ...condition“处于……状态”可知,应用介词in。

  6.guilt 介词后应跟名词、代词或动名词作宾语,故用名词guilt作介词of的宾语。

  7.and 根据语境可知,上下句表示逻辑上的并列关系,故用连词and。

  8.to buy 此处为不定式表示目的。

  9.trembling 此处是现在分词作定语,意为“颤抖的”,表示正在进行的动作。

  10.the 根据语境可知,“love”被介词短语“of others”修饰,表示限定的概念,故用定冠词the。
