AWe’ve tested hundreds of mom-approved products that happen to make perfect Mother’s Day gifts. Here are our recommendations.BabbelIf your mom has always wanted to learn a new language, give her the gift of gab with Babbel. Each online course will be personalized by her interests and molded into bite-sized lessons so she can easily learn at her own pace. It’s a great budget-friendly option for diving into a new language. We tested it and found it to be a fun and effective language learning tool.Thermo Works Thermapen Mk4When it comes to the best digital meat thermometers, it doesn’t get better than Thermo Works. We highly recommend the Thermapen ONE, which was the fastest and most accurate thermometer we tested and would have been our top pick if it wasn’t so expensive. But it’s waterproof, precise and fast-acting.A Bouqs SubscriptionFresh flowers at Mom’s doorstep will always be appreciated, especially on Mother’s Day. This year, instead of just one bouquet, gift her a subscription (订购)to Bouqs. You can change the frequency of the delivery along with the type of blooms she receives — roses one month, sunflowers the next. She may adorably text you a picture of her bouquet every month it arrives and remind you to maintain the subscription. Go ahead and switch it up to keep Mom on her toes.A Personalized Collage (拼贴画)There are few gifts better than personalized ones, especially when it comes to the mom who pretty much already has everything. With services like Minted, you can upload your own photos for a collage and watch your beautiful creation come to life. Customize the frame and color theme to best match mom’s style and watch her fall in love with her new heartfelt gift.1. What might discourage people from choosing the Thermapen ONE?A. Price.B. Function.C. Accuracy.D. Appearance.2. What do we know about A Bouqs Subscription?A. It can be canceled at random.B. It texts to remind renewing.C. It restricts to monthly deliveries.D. It offers wide choices of flowers.3. In which column of a website is the text probably taken from ?A. Life.B. Wellness.C. Literature.D. Entertainment.BCourage is a huge theme in my life, a quality I constantly seek, appreciate, and analyze. The root of“courage”is “cor,” the Latin word for heart. Originally, courage meant“to speak one’s mind by telling all one's heart.”While courage is often associated with heroism nowadays, I believe true courage lies in being open and honest about who we are and how we feel.I recently witnessed an example of true courage. During a mountain-climbing trip with my 15-year-old daughter and some college students, I noticed her struggling to keep up with the group. Despite my suggestions to rest, she persisted until she couldn't breathe properly.Panicked, I called out to the front for help, but there was no response, and we had no cellphone signal. Fortunately, two students just came back to check out on us. They offered assistance and calmed us down. As we continued at a slower pace, they shared their own experiences, from starting out as beginners like my daughter to becoming consistently among the first to reach the peak.“You know,” one of them said, looking at my daughter,“I was just like you when I started. But with practice and proper pace, you'll get there too.”“Yeah, don't let your lack of experience stop you,” the other added. “It's okay to admit when you're struggling or not feeling alright. In fact, it's important to speak up and ask for help when you need it. That's how we improve and grow.”Reaching the mountain top was a huge relief for both my daughter and me. However, the two students addressed the celebrating group directly, emphasizing the importance of staying together in tough environments. Their words led the group to apologize to us for overlooking our struggle.I was totally amazed at their bravery, and my daughter learned that it's okay to be the least experienced in a group. Courage, I've come to realize, has a ripple effect. Each time we choose courage, we inspire those around us to be a little braver and make the world a little better.4. Why does the author mention the original meaning of courage?A. To argue for the true essence of courage.B. To question the common belief of courage.C. To show the changing meaning of courage.D. To compare different interpretations of courage.5. What did the two students suggest the daughter do?A. Challenge her own limits.B. Seek help whenever possible.C. Keep to a suitable pace.D. Stick with experienced climbers.6. Which action in the mountain-climbing story is an example of true courage?A. The mother asked the girl to rest.B. The girl tried hard not to fall behind.C. The group celebrated the reach of the top.D. The two students pointed out the group's fault.7. What does the author intend to tell us?A. Kindness connects us all.B. Being a beginner takes courage.C. With courage, everyone can be perfect.D. We don't have to be a hero to be brave.CFrom crystal-blue lakes to snow-capped mountains and thousand-year-old trees, Canada’s nature is admired around the world. Now it might also be just what the doctor ordered. An ambitious new programme allows doctors to write prescriptions (处方) for free annual passes to Canada’s national parks, encouraging their patients to improve their health — both mental and physical — by taking a stroll (散步) in nature.The prescriptions are provided by PaRX, in partnership with Parks Canada. The first passes were handed out last month, giving holders access to more than 80 national parks, historic sites and nature reserves. PaRX, a health initiative (倡议) launched in 2019 by the British Columbia Parks Foundation, notes on its website that spending time in nature can lead to longer lives, increased energy, reduced stress and anxiety, improved heart health, less pain and better mood. Vitamin D from the sun’s rays has proven health benefits. The organization also hopes that the prescriptions will boost investment in conservation in Canada.The initial provision covers four Canadian provinces: British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Ontario and Manitoba. Participating doctors have only 100 annual passes to hand out for now, but PaRX hopes that the programme will be expanded.“Medical research now clearly shows the positive health benefits of connecting with nature,” Steven Guilbeault, the environment minister, said. “I am confident this programme will quickly show its enormous value to the well-being of patients as it continues to expand throughout the country.”Canada’s physicians are already in the habit of prescribing “nature therapy” as a treatment for anxiety, depression, high blood pressure, immune function and insomnia (失眠). Previously, though, they would write more general prescriptions, such as spending time in nature twice a week, for at least 20 minutes at a time. This is the first time that they have been able to equip their patients with tickets.8. Why does the author mention Canada’s nature in paragraph 1?A. To recommend doctors’ prescriptions.B. To advertise Canada’s natural scenery.C. To introduce a health initiative program.D. To demonstrate health benefits of nature.9. What makes the prescriptions significant?A. A boom in park visiting.B. A rise in economy.C. Investment in conservation.D. Improvement in health.10. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Patients doubt the general prescriptions.B. The previous “nature therapy” is popular.C. It is a tradition to offer patients park tickets.D. “Nature therapy” is no longer just on paper.11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Nature Heals Mental DiseasesB. Canada Possesses Admirable NatureC. Doctors Order A Walk in The WildernessD. Canadian Doctors Have Free Access to ParksDFeeling overloaded by your to-do list can certainly make you unhappy, but new research suggests that more free time might not be the elixir many of us dream it could be.In a new study released last week, researchers analyzed data from two large-scale (大规模) surveys about how Americans spend their time. Together, the surveys included more than 35,000 respondents. The researchers found that people with more free time generally had higher levels of subjective well-being — but only up to a point. People who had around two hours of free time a day generally reported they felt better than those who had less time. But people who had five or more hours of free time a day generally said they felt worse. So ultimately the free-time “sweet spot” might be two to three hours per day, the findings suggest.Part of finding this seemingly tricky “sweet spot” has to do with how people spend the extra time they have, the researchers behind the new study argue. They conducted several smaller online experiments. In one they asked participants to imagine having 3.5 to 7 free hours per day. They were asked to imagine spending that time doing “productive” things (like exercising) or to imagine doing “unproductive” activities ( like watching TV). Study participants believed their well-being would suffer if they had a lot of free time during the day — but only if they used it unproductively. Though that experiment was hypothetical, which is one limitation of the new research, it’s certainly in line with other research showing that being in a state of “flow” can be good for people’s mental health.Of course, what feels “productive” is up to you. Many traditionally productive or purposeful activities can be easy and fun. Engaging in a bit of low-key cardio, like walking and jogging, can help burn stress. Free-time activities like reading or cooking are also known to put people in a state of flow.12.What does the underlined word “elixir” in paragraph 1 refer to?A.Magic solution.B. Physical power.C.Psychological test.D. Relaxed atmosphere.13.How did the researchers carry out the new study?A.By doing large-scale online surveys.B.By giving interviews and mental tests.C.By comparing respondents’ backgrounds.D.By conducting experiments and analyzing data.14.What is a distinct finding of the new research?A.Doing unproductive things leads to unhappiness.B.Being in a state of flow benefits people’s mental health.C.Man’s well-being is positively related to the free time they have.D.How people spend their free time affects their sense of well-being.15.What is the focus of the last paragraph?A.The importance of burning stress.B.Easy and fun activities to kill time.C.Further explanation of being productive.D.The benefits of engaging in free-time activities.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

得夺市安庆阳光实验学校甘肃省天水市高二英语下学期第二学段考试试题(含解析)(满分:100分时间:90分钟)第一部分阅读(共两节,满分30分)第一节阅读理解(每小题2分,满分20分)AThere are many superstitions() in Britain, but one of the most widelyheld is that it is unlucky to walk under a ladder—even if it means stepping off the pavement into a busy street!①Walking under a ladderIf you must walk under a ladder you can avoid bad luck by crossing your fingers and keeping them crossed until you've seen a dog. Alternatively, you must lick your finger and make a cross on the toe of your shoe, and not look again at the shoe until the mark has dried.②UmbrellaAnother common superstition is that it is unlucky to open an umbrella in the house—it will either bring misfortune to the person that opened it or to the household. The superstition could date from the old time when its purpose was to act as a sunshade. If opened indoors, it might be considered to be an attack on the sun. Anyone opening an umbrella indoors in fine weather is unpopular, as it inevitably brings rain!③Number 13The number 13 is said to be unlucky for some, and when the 13th day of the month falls on a Friday, anyone wishing to avoid an inauspicious event had better stay indoors.④Seven years bad luckThe worst misfortune that can befall you is caused by breaking a mirror, as it brings seven years of bad luck! The superstition is supposed to have originated in ancient times, when mirrors were considered to be tools of the gods.⑤Black catIn the UK, black cats are generally considered lucky in the UK, even though they are connected with witchcraft(巫术):You are said to be lucky if a black cat crosses your path.1. Which experience is considered to be lucky according to the passage?A. walking under a ladderB. opening an umbrella in the houseC. breaking a mirrorD. a black cat crossing your path2. Which of the followings is RIGHT in UK according to the passage?A. Opening an umbrella in the rain is not acceptable or unpopular.B. Black cats are generally considered unlucky because they have something with witchcraft.C. Bad luck brought by walking under a ladder cannot be avoided usingcertain ways.D. If you are to open a clothes store on May 13 in Britain, you had better change the date.3. Which two superstitions are related to history?...A. ①②B. ②④C. ④⑤D. ③④4. It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A. breaking a mirror will cause bad luck because it shows your disrespect(不敬)for the GodB. crossing your fingers and keeping them crossed can help avoid bad luck brought by walking under a ladderC. number 13 is always unlucky in any situationD. opening an umbrella indoors might be considered to be an attack on the sun【答案】1.

He moved there a few years ago, and I was eager to see his now place and meet his friends.My earliest memories of my father are a tall, handsome, successful man devoted to his work and family but uncomfortable with his children. As a child I loved him; as a school girl and young adult(成年人)I feared him and felt bitter about him. He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A’s and unhappy with my boy friends if their fathers were not as “successful〞 as he was. Whenever I went out with him on weekends, I used to struggle to think up things to say, feeling on guard.On the first day of my visit, we went out with one of my father’s friends for lunch at an outdoor cafe. We walked along that afternoon, did some shopping, ate on the street table, and laughed over my son’s funny facial expressions. Gone was my father’s critical(挑剔的)air and strict rules. Who was this person I knew asmy father, who seemed so friendly and interesting to be around? What had held him back before?The next day my dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories about his own childhood. Although our times together became easier over the years, I never felt closer to him at that moment. After so many years, I’m at last seeing another side of my father. And in so doing, I’m delighted with my new friend. My dad, in his new home in Arizona, is back to me from where he was.( )31.Why did the author feel bitter about her father as a young adult?A.

Strict and hard-working ( )34.The underlined words “my new friend〞 in the last paragraph refer to .A. the author’s sonB. the author’s fatherC. the friend of the author’s fatherD. the cafe ownerB( )35.How did the author get to know America?A.

She worked as a translator.B. She attended a lot of job interviews.C. She paid telephone bills for her family. D She helped her family with her English.C“I first heard about Mother Teresa in my high school, we watched a video(录像) about her work in India and all over the world. I was so moved by her spirit to help others and her endless love for every human being that after I graduated from high school, I too wanted to try her kind of work. So with two friends I flew to Calcutta for a few weeks.〞“I was asked to work in a home for sick people. I helped wash clothes and sheets, and pass out lunch. I also fed the people who were too weak to feed themselves and tried to cheer them up. I felt it was better to share with them than to think that I have helped them. To be honest, I don’t think I was helping very much. It was then that I realized that I had not really come to help, but to learn about and experience another culture(文化) that helped improve my own understanding of life and the world.〞( )39. According to the text, a volunteer refers to a person who ______.A. is willing to help those in need without payB. can afford to travel to different placesC. has a strong wish to be successfulD. has made a big fortune in life( )40.

Doing simple things to help the poor.D. Improving oneself through helping others.DIt was a winter morning, just a couple of weeks before Christmas . While most people were warming up their ears, Trevor, my husband, had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work. On arrival, he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does. After putting in 10 hours of labor, he returned to find his bike gone.The bike, a black Kona 18 speed, was our only transport. Trevor used it to get to work, putting in 60-hour weeks to support his young family. And the bike was also used to get groceries (食品杂货) saving us from having to walk long distances from where we live.I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I wrote to the newspaper and told them our story. Shortly after that,several people in our area offered to help. One wonderful stranger even bought a bike, then called my husband to pick it up. Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job. It really is an honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before.People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another, but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so. This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened our faith in humanity (人性) as a whole. And it has influenced (影响) us to be more mindful of ways we, too, can share with others. No matter how or how small, an act of kindness shows that someone cares. And the results can be everlasting.( )43. Why was the bike so important to the couple?A. The man’s job was b ike racing.B. It was their only possession.C. It was a nice Kona 18 speed.D. They used it for work and daily life ( )44. We can infer from the text that ________A. The couple worked 60 hours a weekB. people were busy before ChristmasC. the stranger brought over the bikeD. life was hard for the young family ( )45. How did people get to know the couple’s problem?A. From radio broadcasts.B. From a newspaper.C. From TV news.D. From a stranger.( )46. What do the couple learn from their experience?A. Strangers are usually of little help.B. One should take care of their bike.C. News reports make people famous.D. An act of kindness can mean a lot.ERemembering names is an important social skill.Here are some ways to master it.Recite and repeat in conversation.When you hear a person’s name,repeat it.Immediately say it to yourself several times without moving your lips.You could also repeat the name in a way that does not sound forced or artificial.Ask the other person to recite and repeat.You can let other people help you remember their names.After you’ve been introduced to someone,ask that person to spell the name and pronounce it correctly for you.Most people will be pleased by the effor t you’re making to learn their names.Admit you don’t know.Admitting that you can’t remember someone’s name can actually make people relaxed.Most of them will feel sympathy if you say.“I’m working to remember names better.Yours is right on the tip of my tongue.What is it again?〞Use associations.Link each person yon meet with one thing you find interesting or unusual.For example,you could make a mental note: "Vicki Cheng -- tall, black hair.〞 To reinforce (加强) your associations, write them on a small card as soon as possible. Limit the number of new names you learn at one time.When meeting a group of people, concentrate on remembering just two or three names. Free yourself from remembering every one. Few of the people in mass introductions expect you to remember their names. Another way is to limit yourself to learning just first names. Last names can come later.( )47. How will most people feel when you try hard to remember their names?A. They will be moved.B. They will be annoyed.C. They will be delighted.D. They will be discouraged.( )48. If you can't remember someone's name, you may __A. tell him the truthB. tell him a white lieC. ask him for pityD. ask others to help you ( )49.

The planes flew east over the coast… and disappeared. Thegroup was Flight 19, on a run between Florida and Bahamas. Tailor was the groupleader. At about 3:40, Tailor reported that his compasses were not reading properly. The other planes followed their leaders aimlessly, first east,thenwest, then northeast over the ocean, as Tailor tried to make sure of the direction by radio. Then, suddenly Tailor was heard to give orders to dive…Quickly, two giant Martinseaplanes were sent up to search for Flight 19. Several hours later, the windbecame strong and visibility(能见度) dropped. A return to base was ordered. Butonly one of the Martin seaplanes landed. Four days later, the Navy and Coast Guard combed a 100,000 square miles area with more than 100 planes and ships. No sign was ever shown of the missing planes.Today, people have noted thedisappearance of many ships and planes in the southwest part of the North Atlantic and began to call this area the Bermuda Triangle(百幕大三角区).The points of the triangle areBermuda, Puerto Rico and a spot in the Gulf of Me_ico(墨西哥湾), west of Florida. It is a two-faced water world of tiny islands, bright beaches andbeautiful waters. Yet thick fogs, powerful current(激流)and sudden storms are hidden behind this smiling surface.56. Why did Flight 19 disappear?A. Because the wind becamestrong and visibility dropped.B. Because Tailor was givenwrong orders to dive.C. Because Tailor couldn’tread his compasses correctly.D. Because something unknownmade the compasses unable to work as usual.57. How many planes disappeared altogether that day?A. FiveB. Si_C. TwoD. Only one58. The word 〝comb〞 in the passage means __________.A. cover withB. fly overC. do up one’s hair with acomb D. search all over59.Which of the following shows the correct position of the Bermuda Triangle?(F = Florida, Bm = Bermuda,PR = Puerto Rico, Bh = Bahamas, MG = the Gulf of Me_ico, Atl = the Atlantic Ocean, B = Base)BIt can happen toyouMany people think there isno need to take special care over home safety.〝I’m all right, I’minsured(投保).〞Maybe- if you’re fullyinsured. Even then you can never recover the value you place upon your possessions. But you can’t insure against the suffering of mind that we allfeel if our homes are torn apart by some stranger, our windows and doors broken, our possessions ruined.〝It won’t happen tome.〞Won’t it? A houseis broken into every three minutes of the day. Loss of all kinds, including cars and things stolen from cars, happens every 3 seconds.〝I’ve nothing worthstealing.〞You may think not. Butin fact everyone has something worth a thief’s attention. And we all have things of personal value, even if they’re worth little or nothing in hard cash.〝I’m only a tenant(房客) here.〞The thief doesn’tcare whether you’re a tenant or an owner. You’re just as weak either way. Havea word with the owner if you think e_tra safety fittings are necessary.〝They all get inanyway.〞Most thieves are onthe lookout for easy pickings. They are soon discouraged by houses they can’tget into quickly and easily. So do pay special attention.This booklet willhelp you…It’s based on thepractical e_perience of police forces throughout the country. Most of the suggestions will cost you only a few minutes e_tra time and thought. A few maycost some e_pense, but this is small compared with the loss and sadness youmight otherwise suffer.If you are in anydoubt, ask for free advice from the Crime Prevention Office at your local police station.60. The te_t mainly tells us about __________.A. how to escape being caughtB. how to take special care ofourselvesC. how to hire a safe house inthe countryD. how to protect your home61. We can learn from the te_t that ___________.A. it’s impossible to preventa house from being broken intoB. we all have something thata thief thinks worth stealingC. most thieves are good atstealing thing from carsD. you can’t afford to get advicefrom your local police station62. If a house is difficult to get into, ____________.A. the thief may give uptryingB. the thief will steal car orthings from carsC. the owner may think e_trasafety fittings are necessaryD. the owner may think thereis no need to take special careCDressed in her light-blueschool uniform, Yang Shasha looks like any other girl at Beijing No.66 MiddleSchool. Yet uneasiness and tiredness can be seen in her eyes.〝The final e_amination is justaround the corner. My mum and teachers have already put demands on me. I haveto stay up late to study.〞 Yang complained.Although Yang does not speakmuch in class, she often loses her temper(发脾气) at home and has trouble fallingasleep.Yang’s case is not unusual.Problems caused by psychological pressure(心理压力) have affected more and moremiddle school students in recent years. These include e_treme worrying, arguments with parents, misunderstandings between classmates and puppy love andso on.According to a teacher fromthe Central Education and Research Institute, about 10 percent of China’smiddle school students have psychological problems.According to Kang Jianghua,the director of the Moral Education Section at Beijing No.66 Middle School, there are three main reasons for these problems.Some parents do everything fortheir children so the kids never develop abilities to deal with practical matters or to adapt to changes.In addition, some schools overlookpsychological education. Grades become the only standard by which a student isjudged.To make it worse, moststudents don’t realize how serious emotional and psychological problems can be.Some do not see these problems as unhealthy.〝Ask a tor for help? I don’t think Ihave a problem.〞said Yang.But according to the WorldHealth Organization, a person’s psychological state is a very important standard by which to judge whether or not a person is healthy.Psychological pressures needto be dealt with properly and quickly. If they are not, they will driveaperson in worries, depression(抑郁) and distraction(分心).Students with these problems cannot concentrate on their studies. Some even become violent towards their friends and families.Psychological problems formiddle school students have already made teachers worry.At Chengdu Yulin MiddleSchool, psychological e_perts are regularly invited to discuss all kinds ofproblems faced by students. The students can also choose to talk to the e_pertson the phone or to send them letters.〝Family and school are justthe outer push to help children. Students should strengthen their sense ofself-confidence and courage to face problems and difficulties in life.〞SaidKang.63.What are the main reasons for the psychological problems for China’s middle school students?A. Misunderstanding betweenclassmates and puppy love.B. Worrying, arguments withparents and trouble falling asleep.C. Students can’t deal withpractical matters, pay much attention to the grades and pay little attention tothe psychological problems.D. Students’ puppy love, developmentabilities to deal with practical problems.64. Theauthor thinks that ___________.A. psychological pressuresneed to be dealt with properly and quickly.B. psychological problemsshould drive a person in depression.C. the students should stayup to study if they want to go to college.D. only physical state is avery important standard by which to judge a person’s health.65.According to Kang, students with psychological problems are likely to ______________.A. study hard to get highmarksB. concentrate on theirstudiesC. be full ofself-confidenceD. lose their temper andconcentration66.What are the most important ways to help the children deal withpsychological problems?A.

We’ll get as far as we can before proceeding on foot,〞 Mark e_plained. The others sat and listened. Sarah, particularly, as a 〝casually of events〞, wouldn’t have known what to say orsuggest even if she’d been asked. But Harry had a lot to say.〝We’ll never make it,〞 heprotested. 〝We’ll still be crossing the desert when they catch up withus. They’llknow where we’re heading for and they’ll simply follow us and kill us out therein the desert with no one to see. They seem to know every move we make or aregoing to make.〞Mark said nothing, but spread hishands our as if to say 〝Well, what do we do then?〞〝We wouldn’t be in this messnow,〞 Harry went on, almost ignoring Mark’s gesture, 〝if we hadn’t stopped torescue Sarah.〞(He glanced at her briefly.) 〝But since we did, we must go on –but not across the desert. There’s the sand, and deep ravines (沟壑) which arealmost invisible until you’re right on them –and then the heat. You have to beused to going out there, and none of us is. This is no 〝morning at leisure〞onsome pleasant holiday, you know! If we went north instead and made for the river,…〞He broke off and looked around atthe others, feeling somehow that his argument was pointless. No one said anything.〝Good,〞 said Mark, looking aroundwith authority, and returned to checking their stores.A beautiful sunrise was about toburst over the horizon as the jeep headed out towards Base One.68.

2021学年度第二学期高二年级第二学段教学质量检测英语试卷注意:本套试卷一共8页,满分是100分,时间是90分钟第I卷〔一共50分〕第一局部阅读理解〔一共15小题,满分是30分〕AWe all know the health risks of smoking, but that doesn’t make it any easier to kick the habit. Whether you’re an occasional teen smoker or a lifetime smoker, quitting can be really tough. To successfully stop smoking, you’ll need to not only change your behavior but also find healthier ways to manage your moods. With the right game plan, though, you can break the addiction and join the millions of people who’ve kicked the habit for good.Start your stop smoking plan with STARTS = Set a date.Choose a date within the next two weeks, so you have enough time to prepare. And yo u’d better avoid the day when you may be stressed.T = Tell family, friends that you plan to quit.Let your friends and family in on your plan to quit smoking and tell them you need their support and encouragement to stop. Look for a quit buddy who wants to stop smoking as well. You can help each other get through the tough times.A = Anticipate (意料) and plan for the challenges you'll face while quitting. Most people who begin smoking again do so within the first three months. You can help yourself make it through by preparing ahead for common challenges, such as nicotine withdrawal and cigarette cravings.R = Remove cigarettes from your home.Throw away all of your cigarettes, lighters. Wash your clothes and freshen up anything that smells like smoke.T = Take place of your cigarette.You can find something, such as nuts and gum to take place of cigarette in your pockets. When you feel like smoking, you can try them instead.1.Where may you find the passage?A.On a posterB. In a magazineC. on newspaperD. On the Internet2.What’s the best title of the passage?A. The harmful effects of smokingB. How to start smokingC. Five steps to quit smokingD. healthy ways to manage your moods3.

To let your friends help youC. To prepare some gums in your pocketsD. To make a list of damages smoking bringsBWhen many of us take a vacation, relaxing is what we want. But we usually return home tired and weak.It doesn't have to be this way.Come home refreshed after an active trip! Don't be too tired!Active vacations are often the most relaxing of all. It's all in defining what an active vacation is. We don't expect you to run slowly, or backpacking. Well, we ask the sedentary(坐着的) vacationers not to sit too long but to spend two to four hours a day doing things, such as walking the city streets, exploring a nature protect, going to a zoo or biking along the ocean.These kinds of activities aren't just good for your physical health. They improve your mental health, even your spiritual health. And they make vacations memorable and worthwhile. And after all, isn't that what you want from your vacation? Here are some fresh ideas to make your vacations as pleasurable as they are active and healthy.A walk at dawn or dusk is necessary. Try to make this a daily routine of life away from home, and you will ensure yourself both physical and spiritual adding. Don't allow yourself to spend your entire time sitting in front of the water. Whether it is the ocean, a swimming pool, or a treelined lake; make sure you get into the water for swimming or games or even walking. Heck, merely standing in waisthigh(高及腰际的) water is a good exercise, thanks to the action of the water.And you'll feel so much more alive!Many of us spend a large piece of our vacations on the road, either getting to and from our destinations, or using the car for sightseeing. But no matter how beautiful the scenery is, great, memorable vacations don't happen in a car seat. Don't wait for tiredness or nature's call to get you to pull over. Frequently get out and spread, walk, picnic, shop, visit, and have fun. It's important for your health and energy, and it makes traveling a lot more active and interesting.5. The writer writes the text mainly to .A. tell us how to make our vacations relaxingB. introduce the relationship between vacations and healthC. show us where we should go for our vacationsD. explain to us why we feel tired when traveling6. What does the underlined word “refreshed〞 mean?A. Full and excitedB. Pleasant but tiredC. Feeling less tiredD. Feeling regretted7. What advantage can “the activities〞 in Paragraph 5 bring?A. They can bring us more chances to get outB. They just can keep us feel excited and confidentC. They can save us much time and make the trip meaningfulD. They can improve our health as well as making us feel easyCThe scene in the Hollywood movie The Day After Tomorrow, where global warming couldsoon turn the global climate(气候)into a new ice age, may never occur, according to new research.The next ice age could be 15,000 years away, say European scientists who last month announced a continuous record of 740,000 years of climate date(数据)obtained from the Antarctic ice.Scientists from 10 nations have now almost completely drilled through a 3,000-meter depth of ice high in the Antarctic mainland. They figure out that the area where summer temperatures can fall to, has at least 900,000 years of snowfalls, kept as neatly as the growth rings of a tree. And the ice and air caught in each layer(层)have begun to answer questions about the climates in the past.The results show that there have been eight ice ages in the past 740,000 years and eight warmer periods. And by comparing the pattern of global conditions today with those of the past, the researchers reported in Nature that the present warm period could last another 15,000 years.Research suggests that there is a very close connection between greenhouse gas levels and global average temperatures. It also shows that carbon dioxide(二氧化碳)levels are the highest for at least 440,000 years.“ If people say to you: the greenhouse effect is a good thing because we would go into an ice age otherwise, our data say no, a new ice age is not hanging over our heads, 〞said Eric Wolff from the British Antarctic Survey. “ Now w e have eight examples of how the climate goes in and out of ice ages… and you can learn what the rules are that go into the climate models that tell us about the future. 〞Scientists found that whenever temperatures rose in the frozen record, so didcarbon dioxide level. “ In 440,000 years we have never seen greenhouse gas get asthick as it is today, 〞 said Dr Wolff.8. In drilling through the ice in Antarctica , scientists have found that ________.A. snowfalls are kept in certain patternsB. the lowest temperature there isC. the depth of ice is 3,000 metersD. the ice has existed for 15,000 years9. The information of the global climate conditions in the past can be obtainedthrough_________.A. separating carbon dioxide from the airB. examining the growth rings of treesC. comparing temperatures in different areasD. studying the ice and air caught in each layer10. We can infer from Eric Wolff’s words that _________. .A. there is something wrong with the dataB. a new ice age will not come in the near futureC. greenhouse effect is always a bad thingD. greenhouse gas will get thick in the future11. What would be the best title for the passage ?A. Warm period to last about 15,000 yearsB. Research over the Antarctic areaC. Report on the eight ice ages in the pastD. Hollywood movies and the global climateDWhen we read newspapers, we often come across the word pollution. This word was not familiar to the people many years ago. But now, it is a serious threat to us because it means the poisoning of the air, seas, rivers and lands, which would do harm to our health.There are many factories that bring pollution to us. We can not have fresh air in the morning. This is mainly because of the harmful smoke coming from factories, especially chemical ones. The burning produces wastes, some of which remain in the air, causing air pollution. Nearly all of the countries are trying hard to prevent and control air pollution.In rivers, seas and oceans, there are industrial wastes. Some factories just throw their wastes into seas or let them flow into rivers. When people drink the water from such rivers, they get poisoned. Besides, there is rubbish from ships and sometimes when an accident happens in an ocean, oil flows out from tankers.On land, the accumulation(堆积的) of rubbish in the streets may dirty the city and be bad for our health. This is because people can't deal with rubbish in a right way. If we do not fight against pollution, surely one day all of us will be killed. Some people like to put the blame on the industrial revolutions(革命). On the contrary, the pollution problem will be solved only with the help of modern scienceand technology. People will continually find new ways to control pollution. However, we may still have a long way to go before we have a "clean" world.12. The underlined word "poisoning" in Paragraph 1 probably means “________〞.A. dealing with the rubbishB. making the air and water dirtyC. bringing in something goodD. making the air and water clean13. How can we fight against pollution?A. To prevent the industrial revolutions.B. To control air pollution only.C. To stop the production of the factory.D. To rely on the help of science and technology.14. According to the passage, which of the following sentences is TRUE?A. We have found the best way to solve the pollution problem.B. We can reduce the ships to control the water pollution.C. The rubbish in the streets isn't bad for people's health.D. Pollution is a serious threat to us.15. What is the main idea of the text?A. How to deal with the rubbish in the streets.B. The problem of the oil from tankers.C. The serious pollution problems of water and air.D. The problem of controlling the industrial wastes.第二局部英语知识运用第一节完形填空〔一共20小题, 每一小题1分, 满分是20分。

This passage is mainly (主要地) about ______.A.an outing (游览) on a farmB.the trouble in an outingC.a happy holiday in the countryD.what the writer saw on a farmBLast week my youngest son and I visited my father at his new home in Tucson, Arizona. He moved there a few years ago, and I was eager to see his new place and meet his friends.My earliest memories of my father are of a tall, handsome, successful man devoted to his work and family, but uncomfortable with his children. As a child I loved him; as a school girl and young adult I feared him and felt bitter about him. He seemed unhappy with me unless I got straight A’s and unhappy with my boyfriends if their fathers were not as “successful” as he was. Whenever I went out with him on weekends, I used to struggle to think up things to say, feeling on guard.On the first day of my visit, we went out with one of my father’s friends for lunch at an outdoor café. We walked along that afternoon, did some shopping, ate on the street table, and laughed over my son’s funny facial expressions. Gone was my father’s critical(挑剔的)air and strict rules. Who was this person I knew as my father, who seemed so friendly and interesting to be around? What had held him back before?The next day my dad pulled out his childhood pictures and told me quite a few stories about his own childhood. Although our times together became easier over the years, I never felt closer to him at that moment. After so many years, I’m at last seeing another side of my father. And in so doing, I’m delighted with my new friend. My dad, in his new home in Arizona, is back to me from where he was.24.

The underlined words “my new friend” in the last paragraph refer to ______.A.the author’s son B.the author’s fatherC.the friend of the author’s father D.the café ownerCThe young boy saw me, or, he saw the car and quickly ran up to me, eager to sell his bunches of bananas and bags of peanuts. Though he appeared to be about twelve, he seemed to have already known the bitterness of life. “Banana 300 naira. Peanuts 200 naira.”He said in a low voice. I bargained him down to 200 total for the fruit and nuts. When heagreed, I handed him a 500 naira bill. He didn’t have change, so I tol d him not to worry.He said thanks and smiled a row of perfect teeth.When, two weeks later, I saw the boy again. I was more aware of my position in a society where it’s not that uncommon to see a little boy who should be in school standing on the corner selling fruit in the burning sun. My parents had raised me to be aware of the advantage we had been afforded and the responsibility it brought to us.I pulled over and rolled down my window. He had a bunch of bananas and a bag of peanuts ready. I waved them away. “What’s up?” I asked him. “I…I don’t have money to buy books for school.” I reached into my pocket and handed him two fresh 500 naira bills.“Will this help?” I asked. He looked around nervously before taking the money. One thousand naira was a lot of money to someone whose family probably made about 5,000 naira or less each year. “Thank you, sir,” he said. “Thank you very much.”When driving home, I wondered if my little friend actually used the money for school-books. What if he’s a cheat? A nd then I wondered why I did it. Did I do it to make myself feel better? Was I using him? Later, I realized that I didn’t know his name or the least bit about him, nor did I think to ask.Over the next six months, I was busy working in a news agency in Northern Nigeria. Sometime after I returned, I went out for a drive. When I was about to pull over, the boy suddenly appeared by my window with a big smile ready on his face.“Oh, gosh! Long time.”“Are you in school now?” I asked.He nodded.“That’s good.” I said. A silence fell as we looked at each other, and then I realized what he wanted. “Here,” I held out a 500 naira bill. “Take this.” He shook his head and stepped back as if hurt. “What’s wrong?” I asked. “It’s a gift.”He shook his head again and brought his hand from behind his back. His face shone with sweat. He dropped a bunch of bananas and a bag of peanuts in the front seat before he said, “I’ve been waiting to give these to you.”28.
