due to better diets and health care.

lasting effects on our social development and our way of life. Some people fear such changes will
be for the worse, while some see12, not disaster, many men and women in their“ golden years ” are healthy, still active, and young in13if not in age.

When I was nine years old, I loved to go fishing with my dad. But the only thing that
wasn’veryt fun about it was that he could catch many fish while I couldn ’catch anything. I
usually got pretty upset and kept asking him why. He always answered,“ Son, if you want to catc a fish, you have to think like a fish” , I remember being even more upset then because,“fish!” I didn’ t knowto t h oink like a fish. Besides, I reasoned, how could what I think influence
what a fish does
As I got a little older I began to understand what my dad really meant. So, I read some
books on fish. And I even joined the local fishing club and started attending the monthly meetings.
I learned that a fish is a cold-blooded animal and therefore is very sensitive to water temperature.
That is why fish prefer shallow water to deep water because the former is warmer. Besides, water
is usually warmer in dir ect sunlight than in the shade. Yet, fish don’ t眼have皮)anyandeyelids(
the sun huts their eyes?The more I understood fish, the more I became effective at finding and
catching them..
When I grew up and entered the business world, I remember hearing my first boss say,
“ We all need to think like sales people.” But it didn’ t completely make sense. My dad never onc said, “youIf want to catch a fish you need to think like a fisherman.” What he said was,“need to think like a fish.” Yearsth greatlater, effortswi to promote long-term services to people
much older and richer than me, I gradually learned what we all need is to think more like
customers. It is not an easy job. I will show you how in the following chapters.

’ s Daniel Anderson, a famous psychologist, believes it ’ s important to distinguish television
influences on children from those of the family. We tend to blame TV, he says, for problems it
doesn ’ t really cause, overlooking our own roles in shaping children’ s minds.
One traditional belief about tele vision is that it reduces a child’ s ability to think and to understand the world. While watching TV , children do not merely absorb words and images (影
像). Instead, they learn both explicit and hidden meanings from what they see. Actually, children
learn early the psychology of characters in TV shows. Furthermore,as many teachers agree,
children understand far more when parents watch TV with them, explaining new words and ideas.
Yet, most parents use an educational program as a chance to park their kids in front of the set and
do something in another room.
Another argument against television is that it replaces reading as a form of entertainment.
But according to Anderson, the amount of time spent watching television is not related to reading
ability. T V doesn ’ t take the place of reading for most children; it takes the place of similar sorts of
recreation, such as listening to the radio and playing sports. Things like parents educational’
background have a stronger influence on a child ’readings. “ Achild’readings ability is best
predicted by how much a parent reads.” Anderson says.
Traditional wisdom also has it that heavy television-watching lowers IQ (智商 ) scores
and affects school performance. But here, too, Anderson notes that no studies have proved it. In
fact, research suggests that it’ s the other way around.“ If you’ re smart young, you’ ll w when you’ re older,” Anderson says. Yet, people of lower IQ tend to be lifelong television viewers.
For years researchers have attempted to show that television is dangerous to children.
However,by showing that television promotes none of the dangerous effects as conventionally
believed,Anderson suggests that television cannot be condemned without considering other
influences.
36.By watching TV, children learn __________.
A.images through words
B.more than explicit meanings
C.more about images than words
37.An educational program is best watched by a child __________.
A.on his own
B.with other kids
C.with his parents
D.with his teachers
38. Which of the following is most related to children’ s reading ability
A.Radio-listening
B.Television-watching
C.Parents ’ reading list
D.Parents ’ educational background
39.Anderson believed that __________.
A.the more a child watches TV , the smarter he is
B.the younger a child is, the more he watches TV
C.the smarter a child is, the less likely he gets addicted to TV
D.the less a child watches TV , the better he performs at school
40.What is the main purpose of the passage
A.To advise on the educational use of TV .
B.To describe TV’ s harmful effects on children.
C.To explain traditional views on TV influences.
D. To present Anderson’ s unconventional ideas.
D
It was once common to regard Britain as a society with class distinction. Each class had unique characteristics.
In recent years, many writers have begun to speak the 'decline of class' and 'classless society' in Britain. And in modern day consumer society everyone is considered to be middle class.
But pronouncing the death of class is too early. A recent wide-ranging society of public opinion found 90 percent of people still placing themselves in particular class; 73 percent agreed that class was still a vital part of British society; and 52 percent thought there were still sharp
class differences. Thus, class may not be culturally and politically obvious, yet it remains an important part of British society. Britain seems to have a love of stratification.
One unchanging aspect of a British person's class position is accent. The words a person speaks tell her or his class. A study of British accents during 1970s found that a voice sounding
like a BBC newsreader was viewed as the most attractive voice, Most people said this accent sounded 'educated' and 'soft'. The accents placed at the bottom in this study, on the other hand, were regional（地区的） city accents. These accents were seen as 'common' and 'ugly'. However, a similar study of British accents in the US turned these results upside down and placed some regional accents as the most attractive and BBC English as the least. This suggests that British attitudes towards accent have deep roots and are based on class prejudice.
In recent years, however, young upper middle-class people in London, have begun to
adopt some regional accents, in order to hide their class origins. This is an indication of class becoming unnoticed. However, the 1995 pop song 'Common People' puts forward the view that though a middle-class person may 'want to live like common people' they can never appreciate the reality of a working-class life.
41.A recent study of public opinion shows that in modern Britain __________.
A.it is time to end class distinction
B.most people belong to middle class
42.The word stratification in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to __________.
A.variety
B.most people belong to middle class
C.authority
D.qualification
43.The study in the US showed that BBC English was regarded as __________.
A.regional
https://www.doczj.com/doc/2011397775.html,cated
C.prejudiced
D.unattractive
44.British attitudes towards accent __________.
A.have a long tradition
B.are based on regional status
C.are shared by the Americans
D.have changed in recent years
45.What is the main idea of the passage
A.The middle class is expanding
B.A person ’ s accent reflects his class
C.Class is a key part of British society
D.Each class has unique characteristics.

On the first day of her work, Sally found that a class full of problems was waiting for her.
Six teachers had quit before her. When she walked in to the classroom, it was chaos: two boys were fighting in the far corner, yet the rest of the class seemed not to notice them; some girls were chatting and some were running about; paper, food packages and other garbage were littered around.... Just when she was about to speak, a student rushed in and pushed her aside! He was twenty minutes late!
Sally walked onto the platform, picked up a piece of chalk and wrote on the blackboard:“ Rule 1: We are family!“ All students stopped to look at her. And she continued with Rule 2, Rule
3? In the following weeks, Sally worked out 10 class rules and posted them on the walls of the classroom. She patiently explained all the rules to the students and require everyone to follow them.
Surprisingly, Sally was not driven out like the former teachers; instead, she won respect from the students. Over the year, she witnessed gradual change in the class. At the graduation ceremony, just as she expected, she was very proud to stand with a class of care, manners and confidence.

第一节
The DNA examination, a new technology appearing in medical field abroad as good
news for some people, is designed to test DNA by means of analyzing the saliva samples. All they have to do is to pay 125 pounds, give testers their saliva samples with a time ranging from 4 to 6 weeks to get an exact results of the exam. What ’ s more, not only is it of great benefit to predict some serious diseases, but it also can provide people with a prediction of the preference for food, and taking exercises. The medical report may raise their awareness of keeping fit. However, it may give rise to unnecessary anxiety in some people as well.
第二节
Confronted with the misbahavior of her new class, Sally emphasized the idea of “we are family ”and afterwards worked out 10 rules to regulate the students ’conduct. Amazingly, she earned respect from her students, all of whom later grew to be confident, considerate and well-behaved.
The most obvious problem with our class is lack of interaction or teamwork. Everyone is minding his or her own business without the slightest attention to the people around., thus giving rise to inefficiency in their study and even putting a limit to the play of their potential.
To address the issue concerned, I would make it a rule that every Friday a project of a certain subject should be assigned by teachers and completed by every study group consisting
of four students. The final presentation on the following Monday will be a result of group work.
From where I stand, this rule will definitely exert a profound and far-reaching effect on students’academic performance. First and foremost, a harmonious but competitive interaction in a group will help everyone ’s learning. Additionally, we can combine our skills and knowledge as well as motivate each other greater accomplishments. Last but not least, studying in group can share our experiences in solving problems more efficiently. It is for those reasons that I firmly believe that this rule will promote the learning atmosphere and our teamwork spirit.
With continuous efforts, our class, a big family, will compose an extraordinary harmonious symphony.

2018年广东省高考英语听说考试真题 A Part A This is one of the greatest masterpieces of Chinese landscape painting. When westerners first discovered Chinese paintings like this one, they could not see their value. To understand painting, you need to understand calligraphy. The character is not a picture of an object in the real world, but a symbol for an idea. As Chinese characters are symbols for ideas, so elements in a Chinese landscape, rocks, water, trees and mountains, became symbols of concepts. For the Chinese, pictures painted with a brush are symbols that carry both the surface meaning and additional hidden meanings. Chinese paintings are not just pretty pictures. They mean something.
