Section B
Directions:Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
In many countries of the world, people can confidently tell you the meaning of their town or city, but most people who live in Manchester, Oxford or Birmingham would not be able to explain what the name of their city means. The name of every British town and city, however, has a long history.
Two thousand years ago, most people living in Britain were Celts. Even the word “Britain”is Celtic. Then the Romans arrived and built camps which became cities called “castra”. This is why there are so many place names in England which end in “-chester” or “-caster”–Manchester, for example.
The Romans never reached Wales or Scotland, and many place names there are Celtic. For example, Welsh place names that begin with “Llan” come from the Celtic word for church.
After the Romans left Britain, it was attacked by tribes called the Anglo-Saxons who were from the area of Europe that is now Germany and Holland. Without the Roman army, it was impossible to protect the country from these people. The names of their villages often ended in “-ham”or “-ton”. Some got their name from the leader of the village, so Birmingham, for example, means “Beormund’s village”.
The Anglo-Saxons were farmers and the landscape was very important to them, so we have villages called Upton (“village on a hill”–a good place to build a village) and Moreton (“village by lake”, where floods could make life tough). Place names that end in “-ford” (a place where you could cross a river) also describe the location of Anglo-Saxon villages.
Twelve hundred years ago, the Vikings came to England from Scandinavia. They traded with the Anglo-Saxons but lived in their own villages. These often ended in “-by” or “-thorpe”. The name “Kirkby” means “a village with a church” and Scunthorpe was the village of a man called Skuma.
Finally, in 1066, England became Norman –the Normans gave us the place name “grange”,
which means farm.
And how about London? Experts cannot agree. The Romans called the city Londinium, but they were not the first inhabitants. People once believed that the United Kingdom’s capital city got its name from the castle of a King called Lud, but this is very unlikely. Our best guess today is that the name comes from a Celtic word meaning a fastflowing river. Like a number of British place names, its history is lost in time.
56. The origin of British place names are unfamiliar to many local people because of _______.
A. the death of the country’s ancient languages.
B. the long lost history of the names.
C. their lack of interest in the names.
D. the frequent changes to the names.
57. According to the article, Stratford-upon-Avon is most likely a town _______.
A. on a hill
B. near a castle
C. built beside a river
D. with a church
58. Which of the following shows the correct order of the arrival of inhabitants in Britain?
A. The Celts –The Romans – The Vikings –The Normans –The Anglo Saxons
B. The Romans –The Celts –The Vikings –The Anglo Saxons–The Normans
C. The Celts –The Romans –The Anglo Saxons–The Vikings –The Normans
D. The Romans –The Anglo Saxons–The Celts –The Normans –The Vikings
59. According to the text, where did the name for London come from?
A. It is puzzling and hard to confirm for sure.
B. It comes from the term for a fast-flowing river.
C. The name is short for Londinium.
D. The name is from the castle of a King.

(C)
For many years, humans have tried to find the secret to staying young. Although it has yet to be discovered, we may be closer than ever to finding a way that can slow down the aging process.
A recent study by researchers from Duke University in the US found that cutting one’s daily intake of calories could slow down biological aging, which means you might be able to hang on to your youthful looks a little longer.
Previous research has shown that calorie restrictions slow aging in worms, flies and mice. So researchers wondered if it could have the same effect on people.
To find out, Daniel Belsky and her team examined data from a study by the National Institute on Aging, based in the US, which involved 220 people. During the two-year study, 145 people in the restriction group cut their calorie intake by 25 percent. Meanwhile, 75 people in the control group maintained their normal diets.
At the start of the study, the two groups had no difference in biological age. The average participant was 38 years old, with a biological age of 37. However, after each 12-month period, participants in the restriction group saw an increase in biological age by an average of 0.11years. Meanwhile, those in the control group saw a rise by an average of 0.71 years.
The researchers believe the difference between these groups shows that cutting calories does slow biological aging.
Although they didn’t explain the reason behind this, researchers at Brigham Young University in the US provided an explanation after they carried out a similar study on mice.
They believe fewer calories slow down a mechanism in cells called the ribosome (核糖体), at least in mice. The mechanism is responsible for making vital proteins in cells, but with fewer calories it slows down, giving it more time to repair itself.
The ribosome is complex like a car, and it needs to replace the parts that wear out the
fastest from time to time, according to John Price, a biochemistry professor at Brigham Young University.
“When tires wear out, you don’t throw the whole car away and buy new ones. It’s easier to replace the tires,” Price told VOA.
But this doesn’t mean that people who want to look younger should start skipping meals, especially given the study’s early stage. Proper nutrition is important, Price explained.
“Food isn’t just material to be burned –it’s a signal that tells our body and cells how to respond,” he told Science Daily.
63. The purpose of the research was to _________.
A. find the most efficient way to control calorie intake.
B. explain why people have to maintain a normal diet.
C. test the influence of calorie restrictions on aging.
D. invent technology that keeps people young and healthy.
64. Which of the following statements is TRUE about the experiment?
A. All the participants were of the same biological age at the start.
B. The biological age of people in the control group increased more than those in the
restriction group.
C. Flies and mice were used to compare the results of the human test with.
D. Some participants were asked to double the amount of food they ate.
65. According to John Price, ________.
A. the ribosome is an important cell that controls the aging process.
B. a higher level of calorie intake means more healthy proteins.
C. the fewer calories one takes in, the better the ribosome works.
D. reducing calorie intake could allow the ribosome to repair itself better.
66. We can infer from the text that ________.
A. those who want to stay young are advised to skip meals.
B. people should keep a record of the energy they burn every day.
C. maintaining a balanced diet is not as difficult as people imagine.
D. we could slow our pace of biological aging by changing our eating habits.

Plus-size women might be socially frowned upon(不赞成) and openly avoided by the fashion industry. ___67___
A study done a few years ago by Plunkett Research, a market-research firm, found that 67% of American women were “plus-size,” meaning size 14 or larger. That figure might not have changed much, but in 2016, only 18% of clothing sold was plus-size, according to NPD Group, another research firm.
Designers and retailers have long thought of the plus-size as high-risk. Predicting what these customers will buy can be difficult, as they tend to be more cautious about styles. Making larger clothes is more expensive; but higher costs for fabric cannot always be passed on to consumers. ___68___ “We have money but nowhere to spend it,” says Kristine Thompson, who runs a blog which has nearly 150,000 followers on Instagram.
At last, that is changing. Fast-fashion brands, including Forever 21 and a fashion line sold in partnership with Target, a giant retailer, have expanded their plus-size collections. ___69___ Revenue in the plus-size category increased by 14% between 2013 and 2016, compared with growth of 7% for all apparel (服装). Takings (营业额) were $21.3 billion last year. Social media has played an important role in changing attitudes in the fashion business, says Madeline Jones, editor and co-founder of PLUS Model Magazine.
Nonetheless, designer brands still hold back. ___70___ For those that are willing to take a chance, several internet startups (创业公司) that deliver personally styled outfits to individuals, including plus-size women, offer data to “straight-size” designers.
Not all plus-size shoppers are convinced. Laura Fuentes, a hairstylist from Abilene, Texas, says that many upmarket(高端市场的) department stores still keep their plus-size clothing sections poorly organized, badly stocked and dimly lit, if they stock larger clothes at all. Yet such complaints should be taken with a pinch of salt (有所保留), says Ms. Thompson. “We’re nowhere near where we should be but we’ve made progress,” she says.
Directions:Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.
Sales strategies
How can a company improve its sales? One of the keys to more effective selling is for a company to first decide on its “sales strategy”. In other words, what is the role of the sales person? Is the salesperson’s job narrative, suggestive, or consultative?
The “narrative” sales strategy depends on the salesperson moving quickly into a standard sales presentation. His or her pitch highlights the benefit for the customer of a particular product or service. This approach is most effective for customers whose buying motives are basically the same.
The “suggestive” approach is tailored more for the individual customer. The salesperson must be in a position to offer alternative recommendation s that meet a particular customer’s needs. One key aspect of the suggestive approach is the need for the salesperson to engage the buyer in some sort of discussion. The salesperson can then use the information from the customer to suggest an appropriate product or service.
The final strategy demands that a company’s sales staff act as “consultants” for the buyer. In this role, the salesperson must acquire a great deal of information about the customer. They do this through market research, surveys, and face-to-face discussions. Using this information, the salesperson makes a detailed presentation t ailored to a consumer’s needs. More and more sales teams are switching from a narrative or a suggestive approach to a more consultative strategy. As a result, corporations value creativity and analytical skills.

各种刊物发表了70余篇参与者的文章，这是上个世纪90年代以来最热闹的一场学术争鸣，怎样的作品才算经典？人们各执一词，难辨是非。 ②只有回到“人类为什么需要经典”这样一个问题的原点上，才能洞察到解决这一问题的有效方法。可以肯定，文学史家和批评家有谁不渴望了解更多的甚至全部文学现象呢？可这并不现实，不是他们不想了解更多，而是做不到，是不可能。于是文学史家在他们所写的文学史中，譬如，据说中国唐代创作的 诗歌大概有10 人，不同程度地讨论几百首诗歌；中国人编写的外国文学史，所展开讨论的作家一般也都限制在两位数以内，集中解读的作品多则在百部左右，把提到的作品算在内一般也就在六七百部上下。在这些中外文学史中集中阐释的作家，我们在一般情况下就会称为经典作家，集中阐释的作品我们也会称为经典作品。 ③人们面对浩瀚的文学世界，只选择了一部分来接触，这并非意味着要放弃全面把握认知对象的愿望，而是要同时实现两个目的：一是较少的认知投入；二是要了解更多。前者是量力而行，后者是靠近认知目的。那么，怎样才能实现看起来相互矛盾的两个目的呢？其基本思路就是企望以“较少”代表“许多”。文学史家和批评家所提供的所谓经典不论恰当不恰当，其核心标准就是这些作家作品的“代表性”，意在通过这些“代表”来实现 的目的。 ④由此可见，文学经典就是“读者认知需要的代表”。历史上经典的选择和确认首先发生在人类的教育过程中，这一反复出现的事实同样证明着经典与人们的认知需要的紧密关联。人们在生活的经历中会遇到许许多多的疑问和困惑，这些疑问和困惑并非都是认识上的问题，还有价值认同、身份确证、理想的达成、生命的安顿等方面。虽然有很多学科都在努力寻求问题的答案，诸如哲学、伦理学、历史学、科学等，但文学能够以其形象的世界和仿佛完整的人生模式，给读者提供丰富的体验性的审视空间。从这个意义上说，阅读文学经典是人认识自身和自身处境的最好方式。 ⑤文学经典进行攀谈，体验经典的情境和生命气息，打捞经典的价值和意义，还能激励人们把这一切逐步内化为自我的精神结构和在外气质。《诗经》中温柔敦厚的君子、《荷马史诗》中传唱千年的英雄，承载着无数人的价值追求。人的自我塑造总是朝着理想进行的，现实世界常常不能提供理想的样本，在文学经典这样一种象征系统中，人们总是能找到更加富有张力的答案。对于迷惘者而言，尤其需要这样的向导。 ⑥由于文学是“个人发挥想象的乐园”，读者有条件、也有可能对作品所提供的生活情景进行二度想象和创造。无论是对经典意义上的追寻，还是对作品的二度创造都是读者独立

2018年高三一模作文汇编 20XX年已接近尾声，还记得年初你为自己定下的小目标吗？不知你是否实现了你的小目标？发一个微信朋友圈来回顾一下吧（文中请不要出现真实的校名人名）。你的朋友圈文字内容需包括： 1. 你的20XX年度小目标； 2. 你为实现年度小目标所作的努力； 3. 你实现（或没有实现）年度小目标的经验总结。 范文： My new year’s resolution for 2017 was that I should be able to communicate with foreign people in English. To achieve this goal, I had asked my English teacher for help. According to her suggestions, I made up a plan. Firstly, I started with simply reading English articles and found many pronunciation errors in my reading after listening to the video tape of its recording. Then, I tried to learn phonetics and practice one syllable after another again and again. I started with a single word, then a phrase, a sentence, a paragraph and finally the whole passage. After 3-month practice, I was able to read an article fluently without making any mistakes in pronunciation. I felt happy. Next, I practiced my listening. By listening to a passage four times, I required myself to take it down without spelling errors or any information blank. Last but not least, I installed an app called Shanbei Oral English on my phone to practice both my listening and speaking. It’s like having conversations with a robot. I had to understand what it said to me and answer its questions accordingly. After practicing for almost 8 months, I had my first talking session with an American teacher in our school. I was proud of myself. What I have learnt from this experience is something as a saying goes: no pain no gain. Though the process of learning could be dull and tiring, it’s worth all the efforts after I achieved my goal. Even if I didn’t, it’s still a valuable part of my life. 阅卷作文 8+8+4=20 The wonderful year of 2017 is drawing to an end. I remember that I set an annual goal to keep fit at the beginning of 2017, since staying healthy is crucial to ensuring my study, thus better prepare myself for Gaokao. To achieve my goal of keeping fit, here are some efforts I’ve taken throughout the year. On the very first day of 2017, I downloaded a fitness app called Keep. Following the fitness instructions the app offered, I exercised every other night before I go to bed. Also, I did some research into the daily nutrition I need in order to stay healthy both physically and mentally, after which I devised a moderate dieting plan. Apart from the above, I’ve invited family members and friends to join me so that we can encourage each other and exchange fitness experience. So far, the record shown on my fitness app shows that I’ve done well this year, reaching a record high of 200 training times in total. Although at times I felt like giving up because of too much study pressure and limited time, I’m glad I have stuck to my plan. It seems to me that anything is possible if I throw in all of my energy and passion, and most of all, perseverance. Some rules apply to study. So I hope I will keep such passion and strength to do my best in the coming 2018. （237 words） 点评： 1．文本结构段落清晰，符合作文题目要求。 1）第一段明确告知自己的年度小目标是什么； 2）第二段有总起句，段落中有清晰的标记词 (如also, apart from) 告知读者自己所做的努力，且努力的行为都非常具体。 3）第三段对经验的总结可以再和第二段的三个努力匹配些，a. 借助科技的力量(app)；b. 借助科学的力量（did research into the daily nutrition）; c. 组团抗击惰性。 2．在语言表达能力比较强的基础上，可以考虑文字的进一步精炼。是否有“废话”？字数建议不超过200（此学生语言能力强，中等学生160左右即可）。精练而准确的表达也是思维和表达功力的体现。 7+8+4=19 Greeting from the end of 2017! It’s now the time to conclude our yearly goals again. On the new year’s eve, I set up two goals for the year: to getter better grades and to lose weight and I’m proud to announce that I’ve accomplished the first one. To realize the goals, much effort has been put in throughout the year. First of all, I changed my attitudes towards
