Conclusion第五部分书面表达One possible version:For most people, it is a natural reaction to help if they see an old man fall down to the ground. But now things are different.As can be seen from the cartoon, Father Christmas falls over and is lying on the ground. People crowd around, watching, but no one gives a helping hand. It seems that there is no way for Father Christmas to deliver his Christmas gifts.This cartoon is full of humor and satire. It reflects a social phenomenon that when the elderly fall, no one dares to help. This is partly because people are afraid they would be blamed for the accident if the elderly were injured. But it is mainly because of the total indifference to other people’s suffering. Such behavior is out of tune with our harmonious society.As far as I’m concerned, helping those people in trouble is the bottom line of our public morality, which should be advocated. More importantly, efforts should be made to protect the benefits of those who provide help. Only in this way can we be sure that, on one hand, the injured people receive timely aid and on the other hand, warm-hearted people never suffer from loss.(174words)1。

北京市大兴区2016高考英语阅读理解专题训练（4）阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

“Experience may possibly be the best teacher,but it is not a particularly good teacher.” You might think that Winston Churchill or perhaps Mark Twain spoke those words,but they actually come from James March,a professor at Stanford University and a pioneer in the field of organizational decision making. For years March(possibly the wisest philosopher of management)has studied how humans think and act,and he continues to do so in his new bookThe Ambiguities of Experience.He begins by reminding us of just how firmly we have been sticking to the idea of experiential learning:“Experience is respected;experience is sought;experience is explained.” The problem is that learning from experience invol ves(涉及)serious complications(复杂化),ones that are part of the nature of experience itself and which March discusses in the body of this book.In one interesting part of the book,for example,he turns a doubtful eye toward the use of stories as the most effective way of experiential learning. In our efforts to make stories interesting,he argues,we lose part of the complicated truth of things. He says “The more accurately(精确地)reality is presented,the less understandable the story,and the more understandable the story,the less realistic it is.”Besides being a broadly knowledgeable researcher,March is also a poet,and his gift shines through in the depth of views he offers and the simple language he uses. Though the book is short,it is demanding:Don’t pick it up lo oking for quick,easy lessons. Rather,be ready to think deeply about learning from experience in work and life.1. According to the text,James March is .A. a poet who uses experience in his writingB. a teacher who teaches story writing in universityC. a researcher who studies the way humans think and actD. a professor who helps organizations make important decisions2. According to James March,experience .A. is overvaluedB. is easy to explainC. should be actively soughtD. should be highly respected3. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?A. Experience makes stories more accurate.B. Stories made interesting fail to fully present the truth.C. The use of stories is the best way of experiential learning.D. Stories are easier to understand when reality is more accurately described.4. What’s the purpose of this text?A. To introduce a book.B. To describe a researcher.C. To explain experiential learning.D. To discuss organizational decision making. 【参考答案】1-4 CABA【2013界广东省三模】阅读理解About a third of all common cancers in the United States, China and Britain could be prevented each year if people ate healthier food, drank less alcohol and exercised more, health experts said on Friday.Reports from the World Cancer Research Fund (WCRF) suggest that making simple lifestyle changes could prevent some 40 percent of breast cancers alone in Britain and the United States, as well as tens of thousands of stomach cancers.“Even in 2011, people are dying unnecessarily from cancers that could be prevented through keeping a healthy weight, diet, physical activity and other lifestyle factors,” said a WCRF medical and scientific adviser.WCRF findings are supported by World Health Organization (WHO) reports, which say regular exercise can prevent many diseases such as cancers and heart diseases. Cancer is a leading cause of death around the world and its incidence(发病率) is rising. Each year around 12.7 million people discover they have cancer and 7.6 million people die from some form of the disease. There are about 200 known types of cancer.Rachel Thompson, the WCRF’s head of science, said that while the message was simple —that not smoking, eating good food and being a healthy weight can help ward off many cancers — it was still a difficult one to get across.The WHO says adults should do at least 150 minutes of exercise a week. This could be done by walking for 30 minutes five times per week or by cycling to work every day.Peter Baldini, head of the World Lung Foundation, also called on all governments to introduce smoke-free laws and raise the price of cigarettes. Tobacco kills millions of smokers every year, and tobacco-related lung cancers also kill hundreds of thousands of people who d on’t smoke but have been exposed to it second-hand.“There isn’t a magic bullet to cure all forms of cancer, but we have the opportunity and the duty to protect people from developing cancer wherever possible,” Baldini said.63. Which of the following words can best take the place of the phrase “ward off” in the sixthparagraph?A. protectB. preventC. developD. cure【答案】B【解析】词义猜测题。

In June, 2007, a group of students from eight high schools in Winnipeg, the capital of Canada’s Manitoba province, will begin test-launching (试发射) a satellite the size of a Rubik’s cube.The one-kilogram Win-Cube satellite, named for its home city and its shape, will be put into low orbit. Once in space, it can perform for a few months or up to several years, communicating information that could help find the early signs of earthquakes.There are 80 similar satellite projects worldwide, but this is the first high-school based program of its kind in Canada. 30 Manitoba high school students are having a hand in designing and building the satellite, in cooperation with aerospace (航空航天的) experts and 10 students from the University of Manitoba, and with support from two other organizations.The Win-Cube project is not something that goes on a piece of paper, it is real-world engineering, allowing high school students to have an opportunity to learn more about the exciting world of engineering through their participation in this challenging program. It is also taken as a wonderful example of the unique partnerships within Manitoba. Designing, building and launching a satellite with high-school participation will bring this world-class educational project into reality and Manitoba closer to space.“These Manitoba high school students deserve congratulations for their enthusiasm, innovation (创新), and a strong love for discovery," said Education, Citizenship and Youth Minister Peter Bjonson. “We want to make science more relevant (相关的), interesting and attractive to high school students by showing them how classroom studies can relate to practical experience in the workplace or, in this case, in space," Bjonson added.The Win-Cube program is mainly aimed at inspiring a strong desire for discovery on the part of the students. It also shows Manitoba’s devotion to research and innovation and the development of a skilled workforce—all important drivers of knowledge-based economic growth.1. According to the passage, the Win-Cube satellite is .A. named after Manitoba and its shapeB. intended for international communicationC. designed like a Rubik’s cube both in shape and sizeD. challenged by university students around the world2. According to Mr. Bjonson, .A. those Manitoba high school students are worth praisingB. the study of space can be practically made in classroomsC. Manitoba high schools are famous for the study of spaceD. scientific research is too far away from high school students3. The primary purpose of the project is to .A. find the early signs of earthquakesB. relate studies to practical experienceC. help high school students study real-world engineeringD. inspire a strong desire for discovery among the students4. The best title for this passage may be .A. Manitoba SchoolB. Win-Cube ProgramC. Space CooperationD. Satellite Launching【参考答案】1-4 CADB【2013界江苏省盐城中一模】Detective Keeling took his client — a good-looking lady into the back yard of the store together.

Then the two men hurried to the jewellery store. They looked through the window. The policeman was surprised. He spoke to Mr. Keeling. “I don’t understand. You told me, ‘Robbins took a young woman to a restaurant.’ Where is she?”“There she is !” said Mr. Keeling. He pointed through the window.“Do you know the lady with Robbins?” asked the policeman.“That’s his secret friend,” said Mr. Keeling.“N o! You’re wrong!

Why are those clothes under my table?”“Please check all the jewellery in your store, Mr. Robbins,” the policeman said. “Is anything missing?”Some diamond rings and some expensive necklaces were missing.

He applied for a job as a caretaker at a large firm and easily passed a test. The human resources manager told him, "You will be hired at minimum wage of ＄5. 15 an hour. Let me have your e-mail address so that TAL#NBSP we can get you in the loop. Our system will automatically e-mail you all the forms and advise you when to start and where to report on your first day."Greatly surprised, the man said that he had neither a computer nor an e-mail address. To this the manager replied, "Without an e-mail address you can hardly expect to be employed by a high tech firm Good day."The man left. Not knowing where to turn and having 10 dollars in his wallet, he walked past a farmers'market and saw a stand selling tomatoes. He bought a large box of the tomatoes, carried it to a busy corner and displayed the tomatoes. In less than two hours he sold all and made 100% profit.

Frequently, the pain occurs as a result of poor posture, injuries or diseases that affect the backbone. Doctors often recommend exercise, medicine or bed rest to relieve the pain. When such treatments aren't effective, patients may consider operations.When successful, back operations can enable people to live normal, pain free lives again. Consequently, they may not only feel better but also be more productive at home or work. Even the best doctors, however, can't guarantee that operations will stop the pain. And all operations carry risks. During an operation, a few people may experience too much bleeding, infection or even a heart attack. For this reason, an operation is avoided whenever possible. The most common mistakes leading to a bad back are poor body mechanics（movements）and unhealthy habits. How you move objects, your posture, and the wrong kind of shoes all contribute to one of the most common medical problems. Back pain affects eight out of ten people in their lifetime, according to the National Institutes of Health（NIH）.Dr. Douglas Won, founder and director of Minimally Invasive SpineCARE and StarMedical Center in Plano, Texas, offers some tips to improve overall back health:First, keep proper body mechanics:* Push heavy objects across the floor instead of pulling or lifting them* When lifting is necessary, lift with your knees, not your back* Avoid "twisting"and sudden movements when carrying objects—even a bag of groceries can do harm when handled improperlyNext, adopt healthy habits:* Don't smoke: smoking can limit blood flow to vital tissues on the back, taking away oxygen and nutrition, which decreases your body's natural ability to get well* Lose weight: too much weight can increase back pain and cause back conditions* Reduce stress: when stressed, the body tightens its muscles, and that can lead to serious problems(1) What can we learn about the pain discussed in this article?A. Its common causesB. Its relation to dietC. Its connection to raceD. Its economic costs(2) Why most likely does the writer mention the NIH?A. It's in need of additional employeesB. It's mainly supported by donationsC. It's been criticized from time to timeD. It's a reliable source of information(3) In which publication would you most likely find this article?A. Modern EntertainmentB. Favorite Treatments of PhysiciansC. Industrial Safety MagazineD. Digest of Craft and Hobby News19、【来源】 2016年北京大兴区高三一模（C篇）第63~66题8分Wearable TechnologyThe famous brand, Apple, has attracted millions of followers over the past forty years or so. Apple has popularized existing technologies four times: with the Macintosh computer in 1984, the iPod in 2001, the iPhone in 2007 and the iPad in 2010. Since last April, the Apple Watch has been on sale. In addition to telling the time, it can respond to voice commands, measure its wearer's heart rate, act like a credit card at payment points and provide signals for incoming calls and e-mails. It can display many of the apps that are popular on smartphones, such as those of social networks, without the hassle of having to pull out a phone. With prices ranging from 350 to as much as 17, 000, the Apple Watch will make the company billions in profits.The appearance of the Apple Watch points to a broader story: high expectations that wearable technology will soon take off. Some 210, 000, 000 wearable devices (tools)were sold last year; wrist worn wearables, including watches, were the majority. However, several things have been held back—smart watches and other wearables. Many have a short battery life, which limits their appeal. Most can only make calls or perform other functions if an accompanying phone is nearby. Many consumers have little interest in another device that cannot serve as a substitute for what they already carry around.But the biggest challenge facing wearables is the absence of a "killer app". Watches do not yet provide much more than smartphones can do. Moving beyond phones'abilities will take time. It will also depend on getting developers to build apps that will make the most wearables'possibilities. Nowadays, most developers are mainly interested in smartphones, which have hundreds of millions of users compared with a few million for smart watches.Some analysts think that wearables'killer feature may be that they will provide their users with a digital identity, combining the functions of a driving license, credit card, house key, car key and computer in one device worn on the wrist or neck. Wearables are highly personal, but that exposes people to real risks. So far there is no simple way to cancel personal information should a wearable device be lost or stolen. Such fears will need to be relieved for consumers to become as enthusiastic about wearables as the many companies now working on them, but the rapid success of the smartphone shows that miracles canalso happen to wearables when software developers turn their minds to exploiting the full potential of a device loaded with sensors and computing power.(1) The underlined word "hassle"in Paragraph 1 means.A. switchB. reachC. graspD. trouble(2) The development of smart watches has been blocked because many smartwatches.A. have a short battery lifeB. are not convenient in useC. are short of an elegant designD. are too expensive for consumers(3) The biggest problem facing wearables is.A. the lack of interest on the part of consumersB. the high cost of doing research and developmentC. the absence of a killer app for the new productD. the shortage of qualified research professionals(4) What is the author's attitude toward wearable technology?A. Doubtful.B. Optimistic.C. Negative.D. Disapproving.20、【来源】 2016年北京大兴区高三一模（D篇）第67~70题8分A Paradox（自相矛盾）It is now obvious that although we have been able to solve a variety of difficult problems in the areas of engineering, medicine, and technology, we are still not much better when it comes to solving human social problems than we were two or three, thousand years ago.The world is still a place of huge suffering. Actually millions of people die of starvation. And we seem to be unable to slow down what appears to be an unavoidable conflict between the great powers-though one hopes that peace talks will finally solve the problem. If such a conflict takes place, it is very likely that most life on this planet will be destroyed completely.We have had a kind of control over the physical world and, to some degree, over the complexities of biological reality. At the same time, we cannot achieve the kind of wisdom that might enable us to make the greatest use of our lives. We are trapped in cultural, racial and political conflicts. We cannot deal with our "simple"social problems as effectively as we are able to deal with "complex"problems such as there search into the universe.It is something of a paradox that we have more ability to deal with the mysteries of the universe than we are with the complexities of ourselves and our social systems. More people probably die each day from problems that come from difficulties insetting up effective economic and social systems than die from strictly "natural"causes. There is also, possibly, something of a paradox in the fact that many people seem to think it is more important to study those fields that deal with technology than it is to study aspects of the social sciences.However, until it is showed that advances in technology have brought about improvements in social relations among people, we shall have to accept that it is necessary to study society itself as a problematic part of human existence.(1) The author intends to tell us we are not good at.A. making great inventions in the physical worldB. causing conflicts between the great powersC. solving human social problemsD. doing more research into the universe(2) Nowadays, we are able to.A. prevent every conflict through peace talksB. wipe out the problem of starvationC. deal with more social problems than ever beforeD. solve many complex technological problems(3) Many people seem to think.A. technology is more important than social sciencesB. it is necessary to study social sciencesC. humans can solve all kinds of problemsD. we should pay more attention to social problems(4) The passage implies that.A. our society is not as good as what it used to beB. technology has brought about improvements in social relationsC. greater efforts should be made to look into social problemsD. conflicts will disappear owing to advanced technology四、信息匹配21、【来源】 2016年北京大兴区高三一模第71~75题10分SynesthesiaWhat color is it today? What shape is that smell?1These questions might seem like nonsense, but four people in one hundred might think they make perfect sense.That four percent have synesthesia（移觉）. They naturally experience certain senses together One form of this is pairing numbers or letters with color-a blue "1"or a red "D". Other synesthetes, people with synesthesia, may think the word "storm"tastes salty.Synesthesia is not completely understood though it is in our genes（基因）. Some scientists believe the white matter（脑白质）of synesthetes is organized differently from that of people without synesthesia， which may explain the differences in senses2Research shows that synesthetes may have been trained to match colors and lettersat a young age.3Some are afraid to mention them for fear that the idea would be laughed at. Others simply think everyone can taste tunes just like they do. When it comes to everyday life, some people enjoy synesthesia so much that they pity those who don'thaveit4Synesthesia is widely researched today, and certain benefits have been noticed. Studies show the sensation connections that synesthetes experience aid them inabilities formemory.5Synesthetes also tend to be artists, singers Pharrell Williams andLady Gaga being some famous examples Synesthesia doesn't give artistic sensitivity, but it's understandable that seeing colors in music, for instance, could inspire art.A.

The old lady and her husband are homeless, wandering in Shenzhen. Every evening, she sits near Shenzhen University, selling her paintings. When hungry, she just eats some dry food. Usually she can only finish two paintings a night, for either of which she charges 10 yuan. Tough as life is , the old lady has her pride and refuses to beg money from others.The old lady’s optimistic attitude towards life has left a deep impression on me. In addition, She would rather make a living by working hard than be a beggar. Her story puts me to shame, for I always complain about everything and has a habit of depending on others.I have learned the spirit of independence from the old lady. Besides, when faced with difficulties, I will choose never to give up and make the greatest efforts.听力读稿Text 1W: What is that you are listening? It is too noisy.

AIt does not have to be January 1st to give yourself a chance to make the most out ofyour day. Every day is a new day and a fresh start to learn, grow, develop your strengths, free yourself from past regrets or hurts, and move forward older and wiser. Every day gives you a chance to reinvent (重新审视) yourself. It is never too late to change things that arenotworking in your life.Each day is a new beginning and a piece of blank paper. How would you like to create your day? What would you like to paint on it? If you wake up in a negative mind, you are more likely to paint a dark picture throughout the day, and your picture will not show hope, happiness and joy.If you take each day to think actively, and have a positive intention (意图；目的)for how you would like to create your day, how would your life be different? What can daily positive intentions do for you? Every day you will give yourself the gift of an“attitude of gratitude (感恩)”.Each day is a chance to look at things in a different way. You can experience each day in the beauty of the world —and the beauty of you who are in it! You find yourself changing from “I can't” to “I can”. With a focus on positive intentions, you feel you are full of power and more like a “winner” than a “loser”.You pay more attention to the present, and will be more likely to live fully inthe present each moment of each day. After all, the past is a great place to visit, but you don't want to live there! So how about starting each day taking a moment to think of a positive intention for the day? 1．The first paragraph mainly tells us ________.A. learning is helpful in reinventing ourselvesB. January 1st is the most important dayC. we should make every day a new startD. we needn't change ourselves at all2．If you have daily positive intentions, you will ________.A. have a busy lifeB. get a positive resultC. get gifts from othersD. be a complete loser3．From the passage we can learn that ________.A. positive intentions for each day are of great helpB. think actively and you will be a winner, not a loserC. the present is not where you should live for everD. past regrets or hurts can make you older and wiserBEveryone wants to know the secrets of a long and healthy life. Here are some discoveries from health experts.Many studies looking into the lives of centenarians(百岁老人) look at what they eat. Many people who live into their hundreds live in the Mediterranean (地中海), so their diet, which is high in fruits,vegetables, nuts, and healthy fats like olive oil, gets a lot of attention. The diet has been linked to ahealthier older age, lower risk for heart disease, and even protection against memory loss.Education is related to a longer life. A 2012 report from the CDC‟s National Center for Health Statistics found that people with a bachelor‟s degree or higher live about ni ne years longer than people who don‟t graduate high school. James Smith, a health economist at the RAND Corporation, is also a supporter of the argument for staying in school for better life expectancy. His findings show education should be an even bigger factor than race and income. Educated people are more likely to land better jobs, plan for their future, and make healthier lifestyle choices.Being a hard worker doesn‟t necessarily mean job-stress will harm you. The Longevity （长寿）Study found that plenty of hard workers lived long lives. “Skeptics(怀疑者) may wonder if hard workers really are enjoying life.” the authors write, “We found that productive, hardworking people (even in old age) are not stressed or miserable, but tend to be happier, healthier, and more socially connected than their less productive peers.”Having a strong social group is associated with a longer life. We often turn to friends and family for support, and taking care of the people that matter to us may help us take better care of ourselves, some evidence shows. Some research even suggests that immune(免疫) function isimproved when we are around our friends, and that they help with stress management.Research shows that sitting for long period of time put people at risk for shorter lifespans and other health risks. A 2011 study found that each hour people spent sitting down and watching TV after age 25 was linked to 22 minutes from their overall life expectancy.4. The second paragraph mainly tells us that_______.A. Diet matters a lot to a long lifeB. People attach great importance to a long lifeC. Fruits and vegetables benefit healthD. Life styles play a role in health5. According to James Smith, which makes the greatest difference to a long life?A. RaceB. IncomeC. EducationD. Diet6. From the fourth paragraph, we know_____.A. Hard workers suffer from greater stressB. Less productive workers tend to be happier and healthierC. Hard workers are likely to enjoy a longer lifeD. Nobody doubts that hard workers really are enjoying life7. The passage is mainly about ________.A. diet and healthB. some discoveries on healthC. the value of good educationD. the secret of a happy lifeCSri Lanka is known as the “Pearl of the Indian Ocean”, and it is easy to see why. This little country never fails to please visitors.ArriveThe national airline is Sri Lankan Airlines, which flies from Colombo to London and a couple of other European cities. The country‟s main airport is Colombo Bandaranaike, located 29km north of the capital city.Why now?The best time to visit Sri Lanka‟s southern beaches is from November to April. So by going early in the season, you‟ll get the best weather. Also in November, Deepavali, known as “Diwali” or the “Festival of Lights”, is Sri Lanka‟s main religiousf estival, celebrated throughout the country. SeeThere is plenty to see in Sri Lanka. The ancient capital cities of Polonnaruwa and Anuradhapura are worth seeing, and so are many outstanding ruins. Other must-sees are the rock fortress (要塞) of Sigiriya, tow ering over the jungle as far as the eye can see, and Dambulla‟s cave temple, the country‟s largest and best preserved. Both are UNESCO World Heritage (遗产) Sites. Kandy is a picture-like town, which was the last stronghold of the Kandyan Kings. Today it is a cultural relic centre where age-old customs, arts, and crafts remain.DoSri Lanka owns about 1,600km of beautiful palm-shaded beaches as well as warm, pure seas and colorful coral reefs. You can explore the underwater world, and surfing and diving are available too. Away from the shore, wildlife is a big draw for Sri Lanka, and Yala National Park is one of the best places in the word to see wild animals including leopards (豹) and elephants.TasteSri Lanka is celebrated for its excellent food, with a particular emphasis on fresh fruit and vegetables on menus everywhere. Fish and seafood are a big part of the local diet.Did you know?Sri Lanka is known for its tea, but it i s also the world‟s largest producer and exporter of cinnamon(肉桂).8. Which of the following is a cultural relic centre of Sri Lanka?A. Anuradhapura.B. Kandy.C. Polonnaruwa.D. Colombo.9. If you want to know something about “Diwali”, you‟d b etter go there in .A. September.B. October.C. November.D. May.10. We learn from the passage that Sri Lanka .A. is in the Pacific OceanB. has only flights to LondonC. is the world‟s largest producer of teaD.is famo us for its excellent food11. The author wrote the article in order to .A. introduce the picturesque（如画的）landscape of Sri Lanka.B. let readers know what is famous for in Sri Lanka.C. make Sri Lanka well known throughout the world.D. let people get more travel information about Sri Lanka.DIf we are to help students develop reading skills in a foreign language, it is important to understand what is involved in the reading process itself. If we have a clear idea of how “good readers” read, either in their own or a foreign language, this will enable us to decide whether particular reading techniques are likely to help learners or not.In considering the reading process, it is important to distinguish（区别）between two quite separate activities reading for meaning (or “silent reading”) and reading aloud. Reading for meaning is the activity we normally engage in（从事于/参加）when we read books, newspapers, road signs, etc.; it is what you are doing as you read this text. It involves looking at sentences and understanding the message they convey, in other words “making sense” of a written text. It doesn‟tnormally involve saying the words we read, not even silently inside our heads.Reading aloud is a completely different activity; its purpose is not just to understand a text but to convey the information to someone else. It is not an activity we engage in very often outside the classroom; common examples are reading out parts of a newspaper article to a friend, or reading a notice to other people who can‟t see it. Obviously, reading aloud involves looking at a text, understanding it and also saying it. Because our attention is divided between reading and speaking, it is a much more difficult activity than reading silently; we often stumble and make mistakes when reading aloud in our own language, and reading aloud in a foreign language is even more difficult.When we read for meaning, we do not need to read every letter or every word, nor even every word in each sentence. This is because, if the text makes sense, we can guess much of what it says as we read it.12. The passage is mainly about ____________.A. reading skillsB. reading processesC. silent readingD. reading aloud13. The underlined word “stumble” in Paragraph 3 means ____________.A. step over something and fallB. walk with heavy movementsC. repeat something or pause for too long.D. speak in a fluent and confident way14. We can infer from the passage that the author will continue to ____________.A. discuss in detail how to read aloudB. introduce some more reading activitiesC. tell how good readers read in their own languageD. explain why we needn‟t say the words when reading for meaning15. We can conclude that ____________.A. reading silently is easier than reading aloudB. to understand a sentence, you have to read all the words in itC. silent reading involves looking at a text and saying the words silently to yourselfD. there‟s no difference between reading in one‟s own language and in a foreign one第二节阅读填空 (共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。
