If shyness is making you uncomfortable, it may be time for a few lessons in self-confidence. You can build your confidence by following some suggestions from doctors and psychologists.Make a decision not to hold back in conversations. What you have to say is just as important as what other people say. And don’t turn down party invitations just because of your shyness. Prepare for yourself for being with others in groups. Make a list of the good qualities you have.Then make a list of ideas, experiences, and skills you would like to share with other people . I think about what you would like to say in advance. Then say it.If you start feeling self-conscious in a group, take a deep breath and focus your attention on other people, Remember, you are not alone. Other people are concerned about the impression they are making, too.No one ever gets over being shy completely, but most people do learn to live with their shyness. Even entertainers admit that they often feel shy. They work at fighting their shy feelings so that they can face the cameras and the public. Just making the effort to control shyness can have many rewards.

Popular entertainersB(预、普)A new plan for getting children to and from school is being started by a local government in Eastern England. This could end the worries of many parents fearful for their children’s safety on the roads.Until now the local government have only been prepared to provide bus services for children living more than three miles from their school, or sometimes less if special reasons existed. Now it has been decided that if a group of parents ask for help in organizing transport they will be prepared to go ahead, as long as the arrangement will not lose money and children taking part will be attending their nearest school.The new plan is to be fired out this term for children living at Milton who attend Impington School. The children live just within the three-mile limit and the local government said in the past that they would not undertake to provide free transport to the school . But now they have agreed to offer a sum of money for a bus service from Milton to Impington and back, a plan which has the support of the school’s headmaster. Between 50 and 60 parents have said they would like their children to take part . Final calculations have still to be carried out, but a government official has said the cost to parents should be less than £20 a term. They have been able to arrange the service at a low cost because there is already an agreement with the bus company for a bus to take children who live further away to Impington . The same bus would now just make one more journey to pick up the Milton children. The official said they would get in touch with other groups of parents who in the past had asked if transport could be provided for their children , to see if they would like to take part in the new plan. is the aim of the planA.To prevent the students’ road accidentsB.To relieve the traffic pressureC.To save time for the parents and studentsD.To help the parents save money61. How can the local government arrange the new bus service at a low costA.By letting the bus run in the morning onlyB.By limiting the number of the studentsC.By getting the support from the headmasterD.By linking the new bus service with the existing one62. Which of the following is possible if the plan is carried outA.The bus company will make much more moneyB.The children can choose whatever school they likeC.The parents can get rid of their worriesD.The students in Impington School can have free bus rides63. This passage is most probably _____A. a personal letterB.an advertisementC. a headmaster’s reportD. a newspaper articleC(预)Every artist knows in his heart that he is saying something to the public. Not only does he want to say it well, but he wants it to be something that has not been said before. He hopes that the public will listen and understand ----he wants to teach them, and he wants them to learn fromhim.What visional artists like painters want to teach is easy to make out but difficult to explain, because painters translate their experience into shapes and colors, not words. They seem to feel that a certain choice of shapes and colors, out of the countless billions possible, is very interesting for them and worth showing to us. Without their work we should never have notice these particular shapes and colors ,or have felt the delight which they brought to the artists.Most artists take their shapes and colors from the world of nature and from human bodies in movement and at rest; their choices show that these aspects(方面)of the world are worth looking at, that they contain beautiful sights. Modern artists might say that they only choose subjects that provide an interesting pattern, that there is nothing more in it. Yet even they do not choose totally without thinking about the character of their subjects.If one painter chooses to paint a decaying(溃烂的) leg and another a lake in moonlight, each of them is directing our attention to a certain aspect of the world . Each painter is telling us something , showing us something , emphasizing something----- all of which means that, consciously or unconsciously, he is trying to teach us.is hard to explain what a painter is saying because _______.A. most painters do not express themselves wellpainter uses unusual words and phrasespainter use shapes and colors instead of wordspainters do not say anything65. Modern artists might say their choice of subjects ______.A.carries a message to the public provides interesting patternsno pattern or form D. teaches the public important truths66. The writer says that modern art contains______A. nothing but meaningless patterns aspects of the worldC. subjects chosen partly for their meaningD. completely meaningless subjectsD(预)Cole Bettles had been rejected by a number of universities when he received an e-mail from the University of California, San Diego, last month, congratulating him on his admission and inviting him to tour the campus. His mother booked a hotel in San Diego, and the 18-year-old Ojai high school senior arranged for his grandfather, uncle and other family members to meet them at the campus for lunch during the Saturday tour.“They were like ‘Oh my God, that’s so awesome (棒的)’,” Bettles said. Right before he got in bed, he checked his e-mail one last time and found another message saying the school had made a mistake and his application had been denied.In fact, all 28, 000 students turned away from UC San Diego, in one of the toughest college entrance seasons on record, had received the same incorrect message. The students’ hopes had been raised and then dashed (破灭) in a cruel twist that shows the danger of instant communications in the Internet age.UCSD admissions director Mae Brown called it an “administrative error” but refused to say who had made the mistake, or if those responsible would be disciplined (受训)。

2024年秋高河中学高一第一次月考语文试题一、现代文阅读(35分)(一)现代文阅读Ⅰ(本题共5小题,19分)阅读下面的文字,完成1~5题。
材料一:中医药学凝聚着深邃的哲学智慧和中华民族几千年的健康养生理念及其实践经验,是中国古代科学的瑰宝,也是打开中华文明宝库的钥匙。
中医药学提倡“三因制宜”“辨证论治”,体现了中华民族因地制宜、立象尽意的特有思维方式;倡导“大医精诚”“仁心仁术”,体现了中华民族生命至重、厚德载物的人文精神。
这些哲学思想为中华优秀传统文化的形成和发展作出了卓越贡献,成为中华民族的重要标识。
在实践层面,中医药学强调养生“治未病”,并在长期发展中积累了丰富的养生理念和方法,形成了独具特色的健康养生文化,深深融入中国人的日常生活。
比如,强调生活方式与健康密切相关,讲究“食饮有节,起居有常,不妄作劳”;强调养德养生等等。
从这个意义上讲,发展中医药就是传承和弘扬中华优秀传统文化,传承和弘扬中华优秀传统文化必须发展中医药。
英国学者李约瑟在《中国科学技术史》一书中提出:尽管中国古代对人类科技发展作出了重要贡献,但为什么科学和工业革命没有在近代的中国发生?事实上,科学并非只有一种表现形式,中国的科学并不等同于西方的科学,西方科学采用的方法也不是获取科学知识的唯一方法,不能把西方科学当作衡量科学的唯一标准。
中国有自己的科学传统,中医药就是中国传统科学最具代表性的门类之一。
与其他中国本土科学一样,中医药学在发展过程中逐步融汇道、气、阴阳、五行等中国哲学思想,逐渐构建了阴阳五行、五运六气、辨证论治等一套完整的理论体系,实现了独具特色的医学与哲学、自然科学与人文科学的融合和统一,在几千年实践中形成了全球范围独树一帜、疗效确切、覆盖人生命全周期的医学科学。
从历史上看,中华民族屡经天灾、战乱和瘟疫,却能一次次转危为安,人口不断增加,文明得以传承,中医药作出了重大贡献。
特别是在与疫病斗争中产生《伤寒杂病论》《温病条辨》《温疫论》等经典著作,形成了系统的、独特的防病治病的理、法、方、药。
得夺市安庆阳光实验学校高二上学期英语月考测试10月满分(150)第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)AI was in a shopping mall recently, and I decided to go and get a cup of tea. As I was making my way to the coffee shop, I noticed an old gentleman rather poorly dressed sitting on a bench nearby. I knew from the first sight that he was in need of some kind of help. He had a little lunch in front of him and was wholeheartedly enjoying it.There was a young man in front of me in the line also waiting to be served. The young man handed the servant a twenty-dollar bill and asked for an orange juice as well as a favor. The servant looked at the young man with a little surprise, not fully understanding him. The young man asked her to give the juice to the old gentleman eating his lunch outside on the bench. The young man also told her that he would be watching every second so that she would be completely safe at all times. Later, there was a wonderful exchange (交换) between the waitress and the old man.I only wished I had taken a photo of the smiles on both of their faces.As I was thinking about this event later on, I wondered why the young man didn’t just perform this act of kindness himself. I thought he was hoping that this act of kindness might inspire others to do something for the old man as well. Thinking of the happy smiles on the old man’s face, I felt how worthwhile it is to help others.21. The underlined word “favor” in Para. 2 refers to .A. passing the young man a cup of orange juiceB. buying lunch for the old manC. giving the juice to the old manD. exchanging meals with the old man22. Which of the following can be used to describe the young man?A. Humorous and helpful.B. Generous and proud.C. Rich and friendly.D. Kind and considerate.23. In the author’s opinion, the young man asked the serva nt to take the juice to the old man so that .A. more people would be inspired to do good deedsB. he would become famous for his good deedC. the old man could probably accept itD. he would become a friend of the servantBThe Horn of Plenty is one of the largest natural health food stores within the Greater Hamilton area. We are big supporters of buying locally and we are here to tell you why it is so important for your family, the community and the environment.The concept (概念) of buying locally is simple: buy food produced, grown, or raised as close to your home as possible. Not only will your food be fresher and tastier, but you are helping protect the environment and are supporting businesses within your community and reducing pollution.Better for the environmentSustainability (持续性) and global warming are such hot topics at the moment, and many people want to do their bit to help support a healthier environment. Small action carried out by many people can make a big difference. Most materials in an average North American meal have traveled about 1,500 miles to get from farm to plate. To cut out a big part of this travel would greatly reduce not only pollution from transportation and refrigeration but also customers’ expenses as well.Taste and nutritional contentLocally-grown fruits and vegetables are usually sold within 24 hours of being harvested. Because they are picked at the height of ripeness (成熟) and travel only a short distance to the market, their freshness, nutrition, and flavor are kept. Produce trucked in from far away may lose both taste and nutritional content.Community and home valuesWhen you buy direct from a farmer or buy locally-grown foods, you are engaging in a time-honored tradition between a grower and an eater. You also help keep dollars within your community.24. It can be inferred from the third paragraph that .A. global warming is the most serious problem nowB. the increased cost of transporting food is passed on to the customersC. North American food is rich in various kinds of materialsD. most people support buying locally25. Locally-grown fruits and vegetables taste good mostlybecause .A. they are sent to the market at a high speedB. they are not polluted by chemical fertilizerC. they can be harvested at any timeD. they are picked when they are fully grown26. According to the author, when you buy locally-grown foods .A. you can see how fruits and vegetables growB. you will become much healthier and prettierC. you will contribute to protecting the environmentD. you are making money from your community27. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. The benefits of buying locally.B. The popularity of the Horn of Plenty.C. The importance of protecting the environment.D. The way to keep your food tasty and healthy.CPeople often say that money talks. They mean that a person with a lot of money can say how he or she wants things done. But it is not easy to earn enough money to gain this kind of power.Sometimes people in business feel businesses are as dangerous as wild animals in a jungle. They have to be careful if they are to survive the jungle out there. They must not be led into making bogus investments (). Bogus means something that is not real. It was said that the word came from a criminal (罪犯) whose name was Borghese. Borghese wrote checks to people although he didn’t have money. After he wrote the checks, he would disappear. So, people who were paid with his checks received nothing.People trying to earn money also must be aware of being ripped off.A person who is ripped off has had something stolen, or at least has been treated unfairly. To keep from getting ripped off in business, people had better try to earn money step by step instead of getting rich quickly.To be successful, a person in business works hard and tries to get down to brass tacks. For example, a salesman may talk about his product without saying the price. You get down to brass tacks when you say, “It sounds good, but how mu ch does it cost?” Word experts thought the expression came from sailors on ships. They cleaned the bottom of a boat. After they finished, they were down to the brass tacks, the copper pieces that held the boat together. So, if we get down to brass tacks, we can avoid rip-offs and bogus ways of earning money.28. What would happen to those people who make bogus investments?A. They would lose a lot of money.B. They would disappear after that.C. They would receive nothing but checks.D. They were more likely to be punished by law.29. The best way to avoid being ripped off in business is to .A. work as hard as possibleB. ask for checks in advanceC. avoid becoming wealthy eagerlyD. earn as more money as you can30. When doing business, people prefer to get down to brass tacksto .A. keep themselves from being fooledB. develop more ways of earning moneyC. reduce their production costsD. get in touch with more partners31. In which part of a newspaper can we find this passage?A. News and business.B. The history of language.C. Words and their stories.D. Funny new expressions. DMore often than not, people will look at the phone screen to check for new messages or have a quick look at Facebook. Researchers have now found why we often feel such a strong need to look at our phones. Using the mobile phone, they say, is contagious (蔓延的).A team says people are twice as likely to pull out their phones to check their text messages or e-mails if they’re with someone that has just done the same. They also found that women were more likely to use their mobile phones than men. The team watched students in dining halls and coffee shops around the college, observing pairs of college students sitting at tables for as long as 20 minutes and recording their cellphone use. “What we found most interesting was just how often people were using their mobile phones,” Dr. Daniel Kruger, the study’s co-author, said. “Every person we studied used his or her phone at least once while one woman was on hers about half of the time. People saw others checking their incoming messages and began to check their own.”“Cellphones create another choice for one’s attention and may both support and disagre e with live social activities,” the researchers wrote. Kruger believed this could be explained by the effects of social inclusion (包含) and exclusion (排除). If one person in a pair starts a conversation through his phone, the other one may feel excluded and then feel the need to get in touch with others so as not to feel left out.The researchers note that they might not get the same result in a study of different people—for example, older adults, who may not havea habit of using cellphones so often.32. From the study we can learn that .A. people can affect each other in using mobile phonesB. using mobile phones has nothing to do with social activitiesC. men are more likely to be affected by others’ using mobile phonesD. the sound of mobile phones makes using mobile phones contagious33. If old adults are studied, the researchers .A. will find that old adults don’t like to use mobile phonesB. will find that mobile phones are harmful to healthC. will no longer like using mobile phonesD. may reach a different result34. Which can best describe the author’s attitude towards using mobile phones?A. Supportive.B. Objective.C. Indifferent.D. Opposed.35. Which can be the best title for the passage?A. How to use mobile phones correctlyB. Why college students like mobile phonesC. Relation between mobile phones and people’s hobbiesD. Something interesting about the habit of using mobile phones第二节 (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。

The man, Brandon Jones was writing for his mother-in-law, who loved the dish. He explained that she was now in the final stages of lung cancer at her home in Vermont and that he was hoping to get the recipe to make it for her there.Steve Chu, one of the Asian fusion restaurant’s co-owners, read the e-mail and quickly replied with another suggestion, ”Thanks for reaching out, “he wrote. ”We’d like to met you in Vermont and make it fresh for you.”For the past six years, every time Brandon’s mother-in-law visited Baltimore, the first place she wanted to go was Ekiben so she could order that dish. “She had always told us, ‘When I’m on my deathbed, I want to have that broccoli (花椰菜),’” recalls Brandon’s wife, Rina Jones.That Friday after work, a day after receiving Brandon’s e-mail, Chu prepared all the food ingredients (原料) and then headed for Vermont with his business partner and an employee. They stayed overnight in an Airbnb rental and drove the next day to where Rina’s mother lived. After cooking and boxing everything up, they knocked on their customer’s door.“As soon as she opened the door, she recognized the amazing smell,” Brandon says.Rina says her mother also recognized Chu and his coworkers. “My mom kept saying, ‘You drove all the way up here to cook for me?’ She was so happy and touched to have that broccoli.”“It was an honor to help make the family’s wishes come true,” Chu says.“There was a lot of good positive energy in doing this.” Rina was happy that her mother was able to enjoy her beloved broccoli with a side order of excellent kindness one last time.“My mom cried later about their generosity, and so did I.” Rina says.“I’ll carry that positive memory with me always.”4.Why did Brandon send the e-mail to Ekiben restaurant?A.To learn how to cook the dish for his mother-in-law.B.To ask the owner to treat his mother-in-law.C.To invite the owner to cook for his mother-in-law.D.To enjoy the food himself.5.What do we know about Steve Chu from the passage?A.He was generous to his coworkers.B.He had a strong desire for charity.C.He felt honored to deliver positive energy to the family.D.He was unwilling to share the recipe with others.6.How did Brandon’s mother-in-law feel when she saw Chu and his coworkers?A.Puzzled and amazed.B.Surprised and moved.C.Anxious and thankful.D.Stressed and concerned.7.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A.A special order.B.A generous restaurant owner.C.Positive memory, valued.D.Kindness, delivered.You’ve heard that plastic is polluting the oceans -- between 4.8 and 12.7 million tonnes enter ocean ecosystems every year. But does one plastic straw or cup really make a difference? Artist Benjamin V on Wong wants you to know that it does. He builds massive sculptures out of plastic garbage, forcing viewers to re-examine their relationship to single-use plastic products.At the beginning of the year, the artist built a piece called “Strawpocalypse,” a pair of 10-foot-tall plastic waves, frozen mid-crash. Made of 168,000 plastic straws collected from several volunteer beach cleanups, the sculpture made its first appearance at the Estella Place shopping center in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.Just 9% of global plastic waste is recycled. Plastic straws are by no means the biggest source (来源) of plastic pollution, but they’ve recently come under fire because most people don’t need them to drink with and, because of their small size and weight, they cannot be recycled. Every straw that’s part of V on Wong’s artwork likely came from a drink that someone used for only a few minutes. Once the drink is gone, the straw will take centuries to disappear.In a piece from 2018, V on Wong wanted to illustrate (说明) a specific statistic: Every 60 seconds, a truckload’s worth of plastic enters the ocean. For this work, titled “Truckload ofPlastic,” Von Wong and a group of volunteers collected more than 10,000 pieces of plastic, which were then tied together to look like they’d been dumped (倾倒) from a truck all at once.V on Wong hopes that his work will also help pressure big companies to reduce their plastic footprint.8.What are V on Wong’s artworks intended for?A.Beautifying the city he lives in.B.Introducing eco-friendly products.C.Reducing garbage on the beach.D.Drawing public attention to plastic waste. 9.Why does the author discuss plastic straws in paragraph 3?A.To explain why they are useful.B.To show the difficulty of their recycling.C.To voice his views on modern art.D.To find a substitute for them.10.What effect would “Truckload of Plastic” have on viewers?A.Calming.B.Refreshing.C.Disturbing.D.Challenging.11.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.Ocean Plastics Transformed into SculpturesB.Media Interest in Contemporary ArtC.Responsibility Demanded of Big CompaniesD.Artists’ Opinions on PlasticSocial media often report concerns like the spread of misinformation, hate speech, and only listening to people that you agree with. That is what we call echo chamber. But how can we really break it apart? One way, make friends, especially friends of another race.I know most people have few black friends. Many people, many white people, could easily go their whole lives without ever getting to know someone of another race, which requires effort.Making a new friend is a hard period. Making a friend of another race is harder yet. You don’t have common experience and instant friendship. And, for Black people, going out of our way to make a white friend requires trust. And this is not to say that white people should go seek out strangers or acquaintances (熟人) and say, tell me about your Black experience.Do not do that. That’s not friendship. That’s a trade.Real friendship means a willingness to listen carefully, and have your views challenged, because your Black friend doesn’t see the world the same way you do. It’s going to require you to do the important work of earning and offering trust, so that, if you make a mistake or misstep, you will have some good will to fall back on. But even before that, it starts with stepping outside your comfort zone. A different social circle isn’t just going to fall in your lap. You’re going to have to think carefully about where you live and where your children go to school, the activities you take part in. That’s because it’s going to be impossible to create a meaningful connection with someone of another race if you’re only around people who look like you. So, these friendships are going to require putting actions behind intentions. 12.What does “it” in the paragraph 1 refer to?A.Echo chamber.B.Hate speech.C.Social media.D.Wrong information.13.In the author’s opinion,__________.A.most people are willing to make friends of another raceB.it is beneficial to make a friend of another raceC.friendship with the black needs common experienceD.it’s unnecessary for the white to make friends of another race14.What is the author’s attitude to going seek out Black strangers?A.Unfavorable.B.Favorable.C.Unconcerned.D.Unclear. 15.What does the author suggest doing in the last paragraph?A.Counting on people alike.B.Laying stress on actions rather than intentions.C.Seeing eye to eye with our Black friends.D.Living with different races.二、七选五One of the biggest complaints I hear from people is that their friends just aren’t there for them. More than that, sometimes friends are downright (彻头彻尾地) rude or even mean. You can’t change people, but you can surround yourself with more positive people. 16 With positive friends, you don’t need to beg for help when you need it, because thechances are that they will be there for you without your begging. 17 As Dotdash states, ideal friendships provide support when you’re down, fun when you’re up, and wisdom when you’re lost.There are also friends who might snipe (抨击) at you or even laugh at you behind your back. Those people celebrate the downfall of others. 18 Friends of this kind will add to whatever amount of stress you are feeling.19 For example, perhaps you always want to be a writer. The negative people in your life will probably tell you all the reasons why you won’t succeed. Maybe you have already gone over the reasons why you might fail and this is what has prevented you from trying. But with positive people in your life,you’ll feel more comfortable sharing these types of goals because your friends will give you the emotional push you need to go after what you want in life.You naturally attract the kind of friends who are most like you. So if you’re a sad person, you’ll probably find that negative people come to you. 20 The more you are able to maintain a positive attitude, the more like-minded people you’ll attract in return.A.After all, birds of a feather flock together.B.The same is true for the opposite.C.Here are some benefits of spending time with positive friends.D.Positive friends will inspire you to be the best that you can be.E.Positive friends will help you recover from negative hits.F.You’ll end up feeling worse about yourself or the situation you’re dealing with.G.Positive individuals want others to be happy, and will back you when you’re depressed.三、完形填空You can tell a lot about a man by how he treats his dogs.For many years, I enjoyed living with my dogs, Tilly and Chance. Their 21 was nearly enough to keep my loneliness at bay. Nearly. Last year, I started dating, but with22 . When I first dated Steve, I learned he had a dog, Molly, and a cat, Flora. While I was23 that he was an animal lover, I worried that three dogs were perhaps too many, and my dogs might attack Flora the cat.The next week we 24 our dogs together. It was a hot day.

He poured water from a bottle into his hand and offered it to my dogs.27 , I began to fall for him.We continued to date, though neither of us brought up the future. And then in late November, Tilly had an operation on her leg. I took the dogs out four times a day, and I worried that Tilly 28 climbing the stairs could reopen the wound. Then Steve 29 his house. everything was 30 . The three dogs formed a pack that, with coaching, 31 Flora’s space; Steve and I formed a good team 32 for Tilly. We made good housemates.A year later, much to my 33 , this man produced a little box with a ring and proposed to me. He did not kneel (跪) down, nor did I 34 him to. That’s only for giving 35 to the dogs that brought us together.21.A.ownership B.companionship C.membership D.leadership 22.A.confidence B.expectations C.reservations D.prejudice 23.A.thrilled B.amused C.terrified D.unsatisfied 24.A.walked B.tied C.bathed D.fed 25.A.attention B.balance C.breath D.imagination 26.A.calm B.sure C.real D.soon 27.A.By the way B.In that case C.In that moment D.By all means 28.A.secretly B.eventually C.constantly D.unwillingly 29.A.left B.sold C.suggested D.searched 30.A.late B.fine C.hard D.free 31.A.emptied B.occupied C.respected D.discovered 32.A.looking B.caring C.waiting D.calling 33.A.credit B.delight C.interest D.disadvantage 34.A.beg B.trust C.need D.aid 35.A.toys B.water C.food D.awards四、用单词的适当形式完成短文阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

It is the first US city to take such a strong step to keep this technology under control.When a computer system identifies a person from their face in a picture, it’s called “facial recognition” (面部识别). Many police departments use facial recognition. It can be helpful when the police just have a picture of a suspect (嫌疑犯),but no other information. Normally, even with facial recognition the police must have other proof showing that a person is guilty. But many people say facial recognition programs aren’t good enough yet. The programs can usually recognize white men. But they’re not so good at identifying women and people with darker skin. They worry that “false matches” --- when the computer thinks it has identified a person, but it’s wrong --- will make innocent (无罪的) people look like criminals.For companies like Amazon and Microsoft, facial recognition is a big business. Amazon has worked hard to sell their facial recognition to police departments around the US. Microsoft sells tools that allow prisons to watch people inside.To work well, facial recognition programs must have a great number of pictures of people. But most people whose pictures are in the systems never gave permission (许可) for their pictures to be used.Many people worry that using computers to identify or track people will decrease freedom. Now, in many places, facial recognition is used to keep people under control and much of public life is watched on security cameras. Similarly, many cities in America and Europe are also almost completely covered by security cameras. Police officers now often wear cameras on their bodies, recording all the time. It’s usually not clear when governments are using facial recognition and how they are using it.Facial recognition is already being used at airports throughout Europe and in the US. The Department of Homeland Security expects to have picture of 97% of the people flying out of the country in the next four years.As these powerful computer programs become more common, San Francisco’s move to control facial recognition is an unusual and strong move to limit the way governments use computers to watch and control people.28.Why do people worry about facial recognition programs?A.They cannot multiply people’s responsibility.B.They cannot help the police identify good people.C.They will mistake innocent people for bad people.D.They will identify black people instead of white people.29.How can facial recognition programs function effectively?panies should work with each other.B.People should have more pictures taken.C.They should include as many pictures as possible.D.Police departments and prisons should be under control.30.What make people feel their freedom is on the decrease?A.There are the police everywhere.B. A lot of security cameras are used.C. More people are forced to stay at home.D. Governments focus more on facial recognition.31. What’s San Francisco’s attitude towards government workers using facial recognition?A. DisapprovingB. SupportiveC. DoubtfulD. Optimistic5.(8分)DMany people think of the brain as a mystery(神秘).They don’t know much about intelligence and how it works.When they think about what intelligence is, many people believe that a person is born either smart, average, or dumb(愚笨的)—and stays that way for life.But new research shows that the brain is more like a muscle — it changes and gets stronger when you use it.And scientists have been able to show just how the brain grows and gets stronger when you learn.Everyone knows that when you lift weights, your muscles get bigger and you get stronger.A person who can’t lift 20 pounds when they start exercising can get strong enough to lift 100 pounds after working out for a long time.That’s because the muscles become larger and stronger with exercise.And when you stop exercising, the muscles shrink(萎缩)and you get weaker.That’s why people say, “Use it or lose it!”But most people don’t know that when they practice and learn new things, parts of their brain change and get larger a lot like muscles do when they exercise.Inside the cortex (脑皮层)of the brain are billions of tiny nerve cells(神经细胞).Communication between these brain cells is what allows us to think and solve problems.When you learn new things, these tiny connections in the brain actually multiply and get stronger.The more you challenge your mind to learn, the more your brain cells grow.Then, things that you once found very hard or even impossible to do seem to become easy.The result is a stronger and smarter brain.Scientists started thinking that the human brain could develop and change when they studied animals’ brains.They found out that animals who lived in a challenging environment, with other animals and toys to play with, were more “aptitudinal”—they were better at solving problems and learning new things.32.What’s the main idea of the passage?A.Scientists show strong interest in what intelligence is.B.A new study shows the brain can be developed like a muscle.C.Both muscles and the brain are important to humans.D.Intelligence exists in both humans and animals.33.By using such numbers as 20 and 100 in Paragraph 2,the author tries to provethat .A.exercise plays an important role in keeping muscles strongerB.exercise is more important to people than most of the animalsC.everyone can keep healthy if they do enough exercisesD.everyone should learn as many new things as possible34.Like stronger muscles come from exercise, smarter brains need .A.to be well taken care of B.a good communication between personsC.help from scientists D.our learning new things35.What does the underlined word “aptitudinal” in the last paragraph probably mean? A.Strong B.Lovely C.Smart D.Active三、阅读七选五(本题共计1小题,总分10分)6.(10分)How to manage your email inbox36 .We love it and we hate it. We need it and want it, but too often the price we pay is that. As certain as the sun will rise, our inboxes will be full by mid-morning.Honestly, we’ve done it to ourselves.

Instead, you should set certain times to check your inbox, like the top of every hour or every 90 minutes. Set a timer on your phone and stick to it.Scan your inbox. 39 At the same time, leave out everything that is unnecessary and answer timely requests first.40 Instead of creating an email, try speaking with the person you want to communicate with. Often, a five-minute conversation on the line is much better than an email.e a phone.B.Set a schedule.C.Talk to the person.D.Email is our friend and the enemy.E.Because email can interrupt our work and life.F.Looking through the emails quickly can save your time.G.Email is becoming more and more important in our lives四、完形填空(本题共计1小题,总分30分)7.(30分)I’ve read lots of stories about family memories.In those 41, I’ve found voice of sadness and longing.It’s true that so much in our daily lives makes us 42 all the time.We find ourselves with less and less time to spend with our 43and friends.I’ve had the same 44 myself.I used to have 45times with my grandfather when we lived together.When I was very young, I often enjoyed spending time in his 46, watching the flowers and watering the fruit trees.But as I grew up, I 47 became “selfish”.Once, when I was 6, we went shopping together.As we took the wrong bus and ended up getting 48 , unable to find our way back, I couldn’t stay 49and shouted rudely in his face.I was so stubborn that I wouldn’t say sorry 50 returning home, thinking I had done nothing wrong.Now I 51 how ridiculous I was at the time!

Six years later,the non-profit group is building a new school somewhere every 90 hours. It has helped more than 22 000 children in Africa,Asia and Latin America.It all started when Adam Braun was a college student. He was visiting India when a boy stopped him on the street. The boy asked for money. Mr. Braun asked the boy what he would want if he could have anything in the world.“I thought the answer was going to be‘a house’or‘a car’or‘a boat’.His answer was‘a pencil’.So I gave him my pencil and he just lit up with joy. I realized he never had been to school before,and that was the reality for 57 million children around the world,”Braun said.Adam Braun started working in finance after he graduated from college. But he never forgot the boy and the problem he represented.“We live in a world in which every single child can have access to quality education,because we have everything necessary already. We have the capability of educating every child. So I became immensely committed to helping create that world,”Braun said.Mr. Braun raised money for his project by using social media.

The National Christmas Tree Association says more than35 million of them were bought last year in the United States.In large American cities,many people buy trees that have already been cut. But many people drive to a tree farm and cut their own tree. Some buy one from a catalogue or online,and the tree is then delivered to their home. It is estimated that 10.9 million artificial trees were sold in 2012,compared to 24.5 million natural trees. The average cost of a natural tree was$40,and about$70 for an artificial one.Most Christmas trees are now grown on farms. The trees take six to ten years to grow. In some states,fewer than half of the planted trees survived the weather conditions to become Christmas trees.To make sure there is always a supply,farmers usually plant one to three new saplings for every tree they cut down.The Christmas Tree Association says real trees are better for the environment. That is because as Christmas trees grow,they collect carbon dioxide and other gases while supplying fresh oxygen. The trees also protect water supplies.Christmas trees are grown on soil that does not support other crops. Some people throwaway their natural tree when the holiday season ends. But many people recycle them. There are many ways to do this. Christmas trees can be cut up to be used as fertilizer. They can also be cut and used to prevent the wearing down of soil. Christmas trees helped many communities to prevent the sand from blowing away.Artificial- trees,which are mostly made of plastics,can be reused for years. Families use them for an average of six to nine years before throwing them away. But these trees can remain in a landfill(垃圾填埋场)for hundreds of years.28.What can be inferred from the passage?A. The lower prices may contribute to people’s preference for natural trees.B. In 2012 more natural Christmas trees were sold than artificial ones.C. Farmers plant more new Christmas trees because of their increasing prices.D. On average an artificial Christmas tree is used for six to nine years.29.Which of the following is TRUE about the real Christmas trees?A. Half of the young trees can become Christmas trees.B. It takes six to ten months for Christmas trees to grow.C. Farmers plant one new tree for each tree they cut down.D. Christmas trees are not grown together with other crops.30.What might be the author’s attitude towards the use of artificial Christmas trees?A. Favorable.B. Negative.C. Casual.D. Optimistic.31 .Which is NOT the way real Christmas trees are recycled according to the passage?A. They can be cut up to be used as fertilizer.B. They can be cut and used to prevent the wearing down of soil.C. They can be used to prevent the sand from blowing away.D. They can be cut up and used as firewood.DEveryone has a sense of personal space. You can think of it as an imaginary “bubble" around you——you can’t see it,but when someone else gets into the bubble,you’ll start to feel uncomfortable.But how big is this space?According to a new study,the size of the space is different for different people,but generally it is between 20 to 40 centimeters in front of the face,reported LosAngeles Times.In the study,researchers from University College of London asked volunteers to hold their hands at different distances from their face. They then gave them an electric shock on their hand while measuring how often the volunteers blinked. The results among volunteers were a little different,but the average personal space was 20 to 40 centimeters.Researchers also found that the more anxious a person was,the larger their personal space was because they were more sensitive.Besides psychological factors,culture is also thought to be able to change your personal space.For example,a person who grew up in a country that hugs a lot has less of a problem with strangers getting too close than a person who grew up in one with more distance between people.People’s senses of personal space also depend on the environments they are in.“If you are chatting to someone in your living room,you won’ t have a large safety margin at all,”explained researcher Gian Domenico.“But if you are walking through a dangerous area,then that will be much bigger.”Sadly,sometimes people just don’t understand the idea of personal space and keep getting into yours. Whenever that happens,rather than trying to step backwards,researchers suggest that you“create a new space" by turning to wave at someone passing by or to get something out of your bag.32.What can we learn about the personal space from the passage?A. It is 30 centimeters between people.B. The size of it differs from person to person.C. More sensitive people have smaller personal space.D. People who often hug have larger personal space.33.How did the researchers get the size of average personal space?A. By measuring the volunteers’blink frequency while applying electric shocks.B. By doing a survey about the volunteers’psychological condition.C. By finding out about the volunteers’childhood experiences.D. By giving volunteers electric shocks while they felt more anxious.34.The underlined word in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to“_________”.A. factorB. sideC. spaceD. blank35.According to the researchers,what should you do when people step into your personal space?A. Try to step backwards.B. Look them in the eye.C. Push them away.D. Turn to wave at a passerby.第二节(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。
