1.【题文】I still remember it was in the winter of 1990 that, together with the help of my older sister, I 1 down my wishes for Christmas onto a piece of paper. How I wished on Christmas Eve my grandest wish would be 2 and placed under the Christmas tree —a puppy. When we were done, our wish-lists were collected by our parents with the promise to be 3 to Santa's hard- working helpers.The next day, our parents sat us down in the living-room, with 4 expressions on their faces. As it 5 , they had seen our wishes, now wanting to talk to us about one wish 6 —the puppy. For a moment, I held my breath, but was 7 when they told us that they weren't against a puppy. What they 8 against was putting it under the Christmas tree. That was not a good idea.They 9 taught us that an animal was not a gift that belonged to the same 10 as our toys. Animals were creatures with 11 that we should decide to have one, and it would be a(n) 12 to our family. An animal 13 a lot of responsibilities. It wasn’t anything one bought out of a mood. An animal could not be exchanged or 14 when we didn't feel like it. An animal wasn’t a toy. An animal was a 15 family member that needed lots of love and attention. An animal was not a 16 , but a family decision. A serious decision. And a big decision.17 , my parents share my love for animals, so the decision came reasonably 18 . After our grandparents had given their 19 up for taking care of the dog, while we were on future vacations, the answer was yes. Yes, we would get a puppy.The following days and weeks, there was only one 20 : our new family member! Yes, a family member, because animals have their rights. They are not simply food or gifts. We humans must attend, love and protect them.1. A. left B. got C. set D. pulled2. A. rejected B. declined C. challenged D. fulfilled3. A. given away B. passed on C. taken on D. put up4.

Alice, who grew up to be my mother, told me that after her mother’s death her family was too poor to even afford to give her a doll.In December 2012, I had a job at a local bank. One afternoon, we were decorating the tree in the bank lobby(大厅). One of my customers approached me with her beautiful handmade dolls. I decided to get one for my daughter, Katie, who was almost five years old. Then I had an idea. I asked my customer if she could make me a special doll for my mother—one with gray hair and spectacles(眼镜): a grandmother doll. And she gladly agreed.A friend had told me that his dad who played Santa Claus would be willing to make a visit on Christmas morning to our home to deliver my Katie her presents, so I made some special arrangements.Christmas Day arrived and at the planned time; so did Santa Claus. Katie was surprised that Santa had come to see her at her own house. As Santa turned to leave, he looked once more into his bag and found one more gift. As he asked who Alice was, my mother, surprised at her name being called, indicated that she in fact was Alice. Santa handed her the gift, with a message card that read:For Alice:I was cleaning out my sleigh(雪橇) before my trip this year and came across this package that was supposed to be delivered on December 25,1953. The present inside has aged, but I felt that you might still wish to have it. Many apologies for the lateness of the gift.Love,Santa ClausMy mother’s reaction was one of the most deeply emotional scenes I have ever seen. She couldn’t speak but only held the doll she had waited fifty-nine years to receive as tears of joy ran down her cheeks. That doll, given by “Santa”, made my mother the happiest “child” that Christmas.1. The reason why the writer’s mother couldn’t have a doll when young was that __________.A. Santa Clause forgot to deliver the doll to herB. her daughter couldn’t make a doll by herselfC. her parents left the doll in the Santa Clause’s sleighD. her family was badly off when she was a child2. It can be inferred from the passage that __________.A. the writer’s father played the Father ChristmasB. the writer’s mother was already in her sixties when she received the dollC. the writer asked one of her friends to make the doll for her motherD. the Santa Clause was too careless to deliver the doll on time3. When the writer’s mother received the doll that she had waited so long, she was __________.A. pleased and inspiredB. puzzled and angryC. happy and excitedD. curious and grateful4. The best title for this passage could be __________.A. A Doll from SantaB. An unforgettable ChristmasC. A considerate daughterD. A help from Santa Claus【答案】DBCA【解析】【试源】2015届湖北省八市高三3月联考【结束】3.【题文】If you need glasses to read this, you are among the majority of Chinese students. That’s because most students in China are short-sighted which means they can only see things close up and distant things will be blurry. Four-fifths of high school students wear glasses and now more and more children in primary school need glasses, too.This epidemic of poor eyesight has two very simple causes: too much time spent indoors studying and too little time spent outdoors playing. Reading and writing for hours and hours, sometimes in poorly lighted rooms, causes eyesight to weaken. But students have to do this because there is so much pressure on them to succeed in school. And because they spend so much time indoors at school and at home, they have less time to spend outdoors enjoying the sun.The sun, as a consequence, is important in developing good eyesight. Exposure to daylight releases a chemical in the eyes that prevents, or at least delays, short-sightedness. According to a study by Ian Morgan of Australian National University, Australian children and Chinese children have the same level of eyesight before they start school, but once they enter primary school, Chinese children only spend about an hour a day outside, while Australian children spend three to four hours each day in the sunshine. The result is that while about 40 percent of Chinese primary school students need glasses, only three percent of Australian children do.Wearing glasses may not seem like a big deal. For some, wearing glasses can even be an opportunity to make a fashion statement. But poor eyesight at a young age can have serious long term consequences. As you get older, your eyesight can worsen and lead to things like macular degeneration(黄斑变性), a condition of the eyes for which there is no cure and which can eventually lead to blindness.With all that in mind, don’t you think it’s time to give your eyes a break? Try spending a little less time inside and go for a walk in the park, instead. It’s the healthy thing to do and your eyes will thank you for it.1. What does the underlined word “blurry” mean?A. unpopular.B. unpleasant.C. unclear.D. unconscious.2. How should the students protect their eyesight according to the passage?A. They should study less and less.B. They should stay longer outdoors.C. They should wear sun-glasses.D. They should have a longer rest in bed.3. It can be inferred from the passage that __________ is to blame for the poor eyesight of Chinese children.A. the ever-worsening bad weatherB. the ever-increasing burden of studyC. the ever-decreasing sunny daysD. the ever-decreasing period of study time4. What is the purpose of this article?A. To explain why Chinese students are poor-sighted.B. To admire Australian children’s good eyesight.C. To criticize the present education system.D. To call on people to protect Chinese children’s eyesight【答案】CBBD【解析】【试源】2015届湖北省八市高三3月联考【结束】4.【题文】Comfort is comforting, but it might narrow our experience at work —and beyond.In our modern world, discomfort is considered a terrible thing. If not terrible, at least a thing of the past. Dishwashers, washing machines, computers, remote controls—yes, they add convenience, but also a level of comfort our forefathers did not enjoy.As pain of any kind discourages happiness, we tend to reason, anything that compromises our ability to feel good must be bad. And that’s also particularly true for our career s. Success makes us feel great, not terrible. Such a view, however, is a matter of personal opinion. And it may blind us to hidden opportunities.Artists throughout history have tried to experience suffering, instinctively if not consciously, to produce works that explore the darker hidden sides of the human condition. This was done, in part, because pain is a reality of life for everybody in some form at some time. Pain is something everybody can relate to. And pain makes a person very present. For such artists, to relieve or to deny pain would be to block the creative thinking, which drives them to explore and express. In fact, Germans have a term for this melancholia, “Weltschmerz”, which means “suffering from the world.” Writers, from Lord Byron to Kurt V onnegut, have used the term to describe the psychological pain encountered along life’s roller-coaster journey. It was not to be avoided; it was to be understood, investigated and employed.So I propose that discomfort is good for us. Or, put another way, it tells us that something needs to be addressed. It stretches us by forcing us to view our circumstances through a wholly different lens. Because we’re drawn to safety and security, we do our best to create pleasant comfort zones for ourselves and our loved ones through the cars we drive, the homes we live in, and the places we work. But by resisting discomfort, we deny ourselves an important opportunity: the chance to shake ourselves out of our predictable perspectives and allow ourselves to make knowledgeable observations we could not possibly have made before. Discomfort gives us fresh eyes.1. Which of the following is NOT a reason why artists throughout history have been exploring sufferings?A. Pain is a mirror that can reflect the life of everybody.B. Pain is something that no one can escape from.C. Pain can help them to avoid the creative thinking.D. Pain can strengthen the feeling of existence of a person.2. The term “Weltschmerz” couldn’t be used to describe something like __________.A. social inequalityB. mass killingsC. racial discriminationD. great achievements3. The author believes that by challenging discomfort, one may _________.A. lose an important chance to make a big fortuneB. feel upset and fail to think calmlyC. judge and think about the world in a new particular wayD. control the situation properly when things go unsteady4. By writing this passage, the author tries to __________.A. criticize a world full of comfortB. explain why discomfort is good for usC. persuade people to lead a life full of discomfortD. blame those who enjoy an easy life【答案】CDCB【解析】【试源】2015届湖北省八市高三3月联考【结束】5.【题文】Thousands of taxi drivers in Shenyang, Liaoning province, reportedly blocked streets with their vehicles on Sunday in protest against unlicensed vehicles using taxi-hiring apps(打车软件) and apps-based car rental companies providing passenger services, including high-end cars. Although the drivers also complained about the withdrawal of the fuel subsidy by the government, their main complaint was the loss of business because of the rising number of Internet-based car services companies.On Wednesday, news reports came that Beijing transport authorities will take measures to stop the illegal “taxi business”of private cars through the newly rising Internet apps, following the footsteps of Shenyang and Nanjing.It is not yet clear how the Shenyang city government will handle the issue and whether it will declare the services offered by market leaders such as Didi Dache, a taxi-hiring app provider backed by Tencent Holdings, and Kuaidi Dache illegal. But Shanghai transport regulators have set a rule, by banning Didi Zhuanche, or car services offered by Didi Dache in December.Such regulations will cause a setback to the car-hiring companies and investors that are waiting to cash in on the potentially booming business. Just last month, Didi Dache got $700 million in funding from global investors, including Singapore state investment company Temasek Holdings, Russian investment company DST Global and Tencent. Besides, the market is uncertain that Kuaidi Dache is about to finalize its latest round of funding after getting $800 million from global investors.Regulatory uncertainties, however, could cast a shadow on the future of the Internet-based car-hiring services, which have become popular in most of China’s big cities. To be fair, these companies’ business model is anything but bad. For example, Didi Zhuanche works side by side with established car rental companies to provide high-end car service mainly for businesspeople through the Internet and mobile phone apps.Every link in this business model chain has legal companies and services. Hence, it is hard to define it as illegal and ban it.1. Why did taxi drivers in Shenyang block the streets with their vehicles?A. Because they wanted the government to increase their driving allowances.B. Because they wanted to be educated how to use the taxi-hiring apps.C. Because they wanted to make their main complaints known to the government.D. Because they wanted to call on passengers not to hire the private cars.2. The author’s attitude to banning internet car-hiring service is______.A. positiveB. negativeC. neutralD. unclear3. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A. The problem mentioned in the passage exists in all citiesB. App-based car rental is helpful in some senseC. The government should regulate the app-based car rental marketD. Didi Dache is a China-foreign joint company4. From the passage we learn ___________.A. Shenyang banned apps-based car rental companiesB. Shanghai is the second city banning Didi ZhuancheC. some international investment companies have faith in the future of apps-based car rentalcompaniesD. it is easy to describe the apps-based car rental companies illegal【答案】CBAC【解析】【试源】2015届湖北省八市高三3月联考【结束】6.【题文】It was the end of my junior year, the weekend before prom (毕业舞会). I was riding with some friends, and a bottle was passed around the car. Everyone was taking swigs(一大口). When the bottle got to me, I thought:“What should I do?”I took a swig. It was the biggest mistake of my life. I had to drive home later that night.I went back to my car, got in and drove off. At a stop sign I saw a policeman sitting in the parking lot across the street. His headlights were turned on, and I knew he was going to follow me. Then he flashed his lights at me. All I could think was: “Oh no, that swig!”I pulled over and waited for him to come to my door. It felt like forever. “Can I see your license and registration, please, Miss?” I gave them to him. He took them and went back to his car for a while. When he returned, he asked if I had been drinking.“No,” I said. He asked me to step out of my car.“Walk heel to toe down the white line, please.” I passed the test. Next he had me stand on my left foot, lift my right foot and hold it for 30 seconds. I’m not the most coordinated (动作协调的) person and I can’t even walk and chew gum at the same time, so, needless to say, I didn’t pass. Then he asked me to take a breathalyzer test.That was where I messed up. I told him I didn’t want to and didn’t understand why I had to. The officer asked me three more times, and I continued to refuse. He told me to turn around and place my hands behind my back. He arrested me right then and there.The policeman drove me to a police station 20 minutes from my home. He called my parents and told them where I was.I went to court two months after that, charged with refusing to obey an officer. I got a $700 (4,340 yuan) fine and 40 hours of community service. I’ll be on probation (缓刑) for a year, and I’ll haveto take the driving test again. I lost my license for a whole year.This was a huge learning experience for me. It opened my eyes to how easy it is to make a stupid decision. I want everyone reading this to know that it’s not right to drink and drive. It definitely isn’t worth losing your license over.1. From the first paragraph, we can conclude that the author __________.A. didn’t remember she had to drive home later when riding with her friendsB. wished she had refused to drink that nightC. felt just one mouthful would not affect her drivingD. lost her driving license on the way2. What did the policeman ask the author to do at the stop sign?a. Show her driving license.b. Walk in a straight line.c. Stand on her head.d. Stand on one foot for 30 seconds.e. Take her temperature.A. a, b, dB. a, c, dC. b, c, eD. b, d, e3. Which of the following is TRUE according to the article?A. The author was in jail for 40 hours and had to do community service.B. The author thought her punishment shouldn’t be so serious.C. The author was really sorry that she had made a serious mistake.D. The author believed she would have avoided punishment if she had obeyed the policeman. 4. What is the main purpose of the article?A. To warn people against driving after drinking.B. To explain how policemen test drivers.C. To show that severe punishment works.D. To blame the author’s thoughtless friends.【答案】BACA【解析】【试源】2015届湖北省八市高三3月联考【结束】7.【题文】Researchers are now using 3D printing to create models of the human heartheart specialists.(help)研究人员现在开始使用三维打印技术制作人类心脏模型来帮助心脏病专家。

选项A“if”表示“是否”,在这里引导宾语从句,符合句子语境,即伊丽莎白想知道他是否会来今晚的舞会。
选项B“that”在宾语从句中无实际意义,若选此项,句子语义不完整。
选项C“what”在名词性从句中充当主语、宾语或表语等成分,这里不需要表示“什么”的含义,所以不选。

They jam the planes so full,there’s never an available seat to be had."And with that,the conversation ended—at least that part of it.It was only later that it hit me I had unwisely said no to my friend’s experience of life.I had slammed(砰地关,使劲摔)my reality in her face,as if hers didn’t matter.There are few things worse that we do to our friends than make them feel like they don‘t matter.We rarely mean to,yet we do it all the time.It would have been so easy for me to consider her experience in my response:“I never thought of that.I wonder if it would still work,given the general overcrowding.”I would not have thus denied either her experience or mine. And there would have been a continuing basis for conversation,had we wished to do so.Simply put,instead of listening competitively,we need to listen to learn.1.The underlined“coach ticket”in Paragraph 2 refers to a ticket for _____________.A.the platformB.the long journey busC.the first class in the planeD.the economy class in the plane2.My friend ended the conversation because she thought _____________.A.I lost face B.I misunderstood herC.I overlooked her life D.I voiced my opinion3.The worst thing we do to our friends is ______________.A.act too politely toward themB.make them feel unimportantC.compare their experiences with oursD.end a conversation all of a sudden4.The main purpose of the text is to _______________.A.amuse us with a real storyB.inform us of a recent discoveryC.remind us to listen to learnD.persuade us to stop insulting others【答案】DCBC【解析】【试源】2015届山东省潍坊市高三二模考试【结束】3.【题文】It might be difficult to find anyone who hasn’t seen one of the ice bucket(桶)challenge videos or pictures.And every day there’s a new one with a celebrity(名人)in it.Justin Bieber's video got more than one million‘likes’.Former US President George W.Bush took part in one and so did actor Tom Cruise,Internet billionaires,footballers and my neighbor Sophie.But has it achieved anything?The chal lenge‘s aims were fundraising and bringing awareness to the Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis Association(ALSA)in the US.The figures say it did.During the month of August,when the campaign was in full swing,ALSA received over $ 98m—a big jump compared to the $2.7m donated during the same period last year.Other charities have benefitted from it too,including the UK’s Water Aid.It seems to have got money from some people who thought the ice bucket challenge was a waste of precious liquid.But Shannon Murray,a British writer who campaigns for disability rights says:“It’s been very celebrity-centered and it plays into our culture of putting everything about ourselves out there on social media.Some people have obviously done it to attract more public attention and that’s up to them.Personally it makes me a bit uncomfortable.”Veteran BBC radio presenter John Humphrys isn’t happy either.“I have mixed feelings about persuading people to support a charity with stunts(噱头),”he says.Humphrys believes charity should be about giving because it’s a worthwhile cause that we want to help.The ice bucket challenge isn’t the first to get benefits through social media.In March,Cancer Research UK raised millions when women posted pictures of themselves online wearing no makeup while donating to charity.The days of just relying on people’s goodwill and social conscience might be over.As Humphreys puts it,“Charity has become big business,and fundraising is all about clever marketing.Pity they can’t let the cause speak for itself.”1.The figures in Paragraph 2 show ______________.A.the challenge has achieved its aimsB.other charities have benefitted tooC.ALSA no longer needs moneyD.charity can’t go without celebrities2.What’s Shannon Murray’s attitude towards the ice bucket challenge? A.Supportive.B.Uncaring.C.Doubtful.D.Respectful.3.What will charity probably depend on in the future?A.Various associations.B.People’s goodwill.C.Smart marketing.D.Social conscience.4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.Does ice bucket waste precious liquid?B.Does ice bucket leave you cold?C.Does ice bucket ruin charity?D.Does ice make charity hot?【答案】ACCD【解析】【试源】2015届山东省潍坊市高三二模考试【结束】4.【题文】Child abuse and child neglect are serious crimes.Some U.S.1aws are designed to protect children from their very own parents.Recently,two parents who live in the state of Maryland,near Washington,D.C.,were found guilty of“unsubstantiated neglect”(未经证实的疏忽).What was their crime?The parents let their two children walk home together unsupervised (无人监管的)from a neighborhood park.The children are a 10-year old boy named Raft and his 6-year old sister Dvora.The two siblings like to play at their neighborhood park.After playing,they walk home—by themselves.And“that is a problem”,says Maryland’s child protective services agency.And this incident has restarted a debate in the U.S.about the amount of independence parents should give their children.Some people object to courts telling parents how to raise their children.They also think children benefit from exploring the outside world without a lot of supervision.Raft and Dvora’s parents, Danielle and Alexander Meitiv,are both trained scientists.They defend“free-range parenting.”Free-range is usually a term used to describe farm animals that live uncaged.With parents,it means loosening control over your children.Danielle Meitiv explains.“The idea of free-range parenting is really that your children need the freedom to explore. They need to be a1one,without parents.They learn to take risks.They learn to be independent.”But opponents say this so called“free-range parenting”can put children in danger.They say children may not be able to safely explore the world alone.They may not be able to cross the street safely.They may get lost.They could get hurt or,a parents’worst nightmare,kidnapped. The Meitiv parents say they slowly let their two children take walks by themselves.They first made sure Rafi and Dvora knew the area well.But on December 20,2014,the two young Meitivs went farther than usual.They walked home from a park that is a little more than a kilometer away.Police officers stopped the children as they walked along a busy street.They drove the children home.What happened next came as a shock,says Alexander Meitiv,their father.1.The underlined part“this incident”refers to the children‘s______________.A.playing outsideB.being treated badlyC.walking home aloneD.committing serious crimes2.In what sense are unsupervised children similar to uncaged animals?A.They have difficulty finding their home.B.They are in the control of their parents.C.They always depend on each other.D.They are free to explore the world.3.Free-range parenting is not favored by those who think ________________.A.children are too young to take good care of themselvesB.parents should give their children much independenceC.family education is the most important for childrenD.not all parents are well trained4.We can infer from the text that ________________.A.Raft and Dvora were very naughtyB.children are not expected to take risksC.parents should loosen control over their childrenD.the Meitivs didn’t neglect their children on purpose【答案】CDAD【解析】【试源】2015届山东省潍坊市高三二模考试【结束】5.【题文】Breakfast is not only the first meal of the day;it is also the most important meal. 1 Coffee does not count as breakfast.I am talking about food that will sustain(支撑)you for a few hours.Below are some easy breakfast ideas that you can prepare at home.1.Casseroles are great for a healthy breakfast.They can be made with ingredients that you like.If you don’t have time to cook breakfast like bacon and eggs in the morning.you can prepare breakfast the night before.What I usually do is prepare breakfast for the whole week and freeze it. 22. 3 It is not only economical;it can be a very healthy choice if you choose regular yogurt.You can add some fresh or dried fruit to the yogurt.The fruit will not only provide essential vitamins and minerals but energy to get you through until lunch.3.Breakfast sandwiches are also a good breakfast idea.What you need to have on hand are chicken,cheese,ham or whatever you like plus some vegetables like lettuce and tomatoes.You can make them and toast them the night before. 4 In the morning,you would heat them up,add your toppings and you will have a very quick breakfast.You can use these ideas.5 You can even use things you have in your cupboard to create delicious breakfasts.Now that you have some ideas to create healthy breakfast,you will not skip breakfast or go to the drive through to pick up breakfast.A.After we have been fasting all night while sleeping,we need food to get us going.B.Then,cut them into quarters and store them in the fridge overnight.C.Then all I have to do in the morning is to steam it or microwave it.D.Yon have to get up early to prepare for a rich breakfast.E.You may also think up other breakfast ideasF.If you add bacteria to milk,you get yogurt.G.Yogurt is another breakfast idea.【答案】ACGBE【解析】【试源】2015届山东省潍坊市高三二模考试【结束】6.【题文】We have all heard the saying―we often hurt those we love or those closest to us!‖Think of the times that we were 1 or upset with someone or about something that happened.Those emotions are 2 with us when we arrive home.How do we 3 them?

But in today‘s economy with airlines adding new fees almost daily and ticket prices sharply on the rise , many have written off travel as too expensive . However , with a few saving tricks and a little research , there are still lots of great deals to be had on airline tickets and more .Early Bird Gets the Deal .Travel experts say that there are certain times of day when more deals are available . Airfares can change three times a day as airlines adjust their prices to fill up flights . Early morning is when the fares tend to be lowest .What Wouldn‘t a Business Traveler do ?Flying when business travelers don‘t can save you big money . Most business travelers fly on Mondays and Fridays , so Tuesday and Wednesday are the best days . Airlines will usually lower their prices on these day to aggressively try and fill empty seats ._______________________________________Fly to popular places at unpopular times . The slowest time of the year for travel is in the Fall between Labor Day and Thanksgiving . Again , to try and fill more empty seats , the airlines will lower prices and offer better deals to get people to fly during this time of the year .Package DealsMany times the best deals on airfare can be found as part of a package rate . Most travel sites have package rates available . Often , the entire package ( hotel , airfare , rental car ) is cheaper than just the plane ticket on another site . Even if you don‘t need the rental car , with the money you‘ve saved on the flight , you can afford to take a taxi .

Psychologists usually use the Big Five personality model --- openness , conscientiousness , agreeableness , neuroticism(神经质)and extroversion(外向).Soto says people who are more conscientious tend to do better in the workplace and school . People who score high on agreeableness and low on neuroticism tend to have more satisfying and stable relationships . Extroverts do better in social and business occupations . According to Soto , even small changes in a person‘s personality can produce important effects on relationships , health and happiness . But change takes time . ― You start by changing the behavior and then , if you can maintain that new behavior over time , it gets cultivated , ‖ Soto says .Where do you start ? ― First , we have to recognize which pieces of our personality affect us , ‖says Richard Levak , a well-known personality expert . ― If I am always getting fired because I get into arguments with co-workers and always blame others , then I have to realize that I have to change something , ‖ he says .Don‘t set your expectation too high . Be patient . Warren Kennaugh , a behavioral strategist in Sydney , says it‘s important so start small . Identify a first step and then practice it without worrying about the primary results .1.

6.【题文】A surprising new research suggests it can actually be good to feel bad at work, and that feeling good in the workplace can lead to negative outcomes.The study of emotions in the workplace, edited by University of Liverpool researchers Dr. Lindebaum and Peter Jordan, is the topic of a Special Issue of the journal ‗Human Relations‘. They found that the commonly-held belief that being positive in the workplace produces positive outcomes, while negative emotions lead to negative outcomes, may be in need for reconsideration. This is partly due to this belief failing to take into account the differences in working environment which affect outcomes.For instance, anger does not always lead to negative outcomes and in some cases, anger can be considered a force for good through acting upon injustices. An employee, for example, could express anger constructively after a manager has treated a fellow worker unfairly. In such cases, anger can be useful. Likewise, being too positive in the workplace, rather than resulting in greater performance and productivity, can lead to self-satisfaction and being too shallow in one‘s personality.One article within the issue also finds that, within team work situation, negativity can have a good effect, leading to fewer consensuses (共识) but a further discussion or debate on an important issue among workers, which enhances team effectiveness.Lindebaum said, ―The findings of the study published in this Special Issue challenge the commonly-held belief that in the workplace positive emotions bring about a positive outcome, and vice versa.‖He added, ―This Special Issue adds to our knowledge and understanding of how the positive and negative dynamics (动态) affect the working environment and is certain to have practical application in the workplace for the years to come.‖1. Why did researchers of the study of emotions find that the commonly-held belief needs tobe considered again?A. Because different people hold different attitudes towards it.B. Because it doesn‘t consider the differences in real working environment.C. Because it has been proved to be totally wrong in real working environment.D. Because it doesn‘t tell the truth.2. What does the underlined word ―Likewise‖ in paragraph 3 probably mean?A. SimilarlyB. DifferentlyC. ApproximatelyD. Occasionally3. It can be inferred from what Lindebaum said in the last paragraph that ____.A. the findings of the study will completely change people‘s belief in the endB. the findings of the study will not have any influence on the workplaceC. the findings of the study won‘t be just a theory published in the journalD. the findings of the study will make us work negatively in the future4. What would be the best title for the passage?A. To Be Positive About Your WorkB. To Be Negative About Your WorkC. Negativity at Work Probably Bringing About Good ThingsD.

In the mid-2000s he famously coined the phase ―mindless eating‖(and wrote a book by that name) to focus attention on all the bad dietary decisions we make without really thinking about them.His new book, Slim by Design: Mindless Eating Solutions for Everyday Life, aims to change the design of restaurants, school lunchrooms, office cafeterias and homes so that the mindless choices we make will be more healthful ones. Some examples:Keep kitchen counters clear. No visible snack food, no bread, no nuts — not even breakfast cereal. In Wansink‘s research, ―women who had even one box of breakfast cereal that was visible –- anywhere in their kitchen —weighed 21 pounds more than their neighbor who didn‘t.‖Tr ick yourself into drinking less wine. ―We tend to focus on the height of what we pour and not the width, so we pour 12 percent less wine into taller wineglasses than we pour into wider wineglasses.‖ And the shape of the glass is not the only variable that affects how much we drink. Wansink writes: ―Because red wine is easier to see than white wine, we pour 9 percent less red wine whenever we pour a glass.‖Wansink said his researchers also found that people ate less at restaurants when they sat in well-lighted areas near windows and doors, than in darker areas or in the back. They ate less if they were offered a doggie bag, or to-go box, before they got their meals: apparently the idea of getting a ―free‖ second meal outweighed (比……重要) the impulse (冲动) to clean their plates. Workers who frequently ate at their desks weighed 15.4 pounds less, on average, than those who didn‘t. Fruits and vegetables kept on the top shelf of the refrigerator were eaten at higher rates than those on lower shelves.The point, Wansink says, is to consider findings like those and change your environment or habits. Then you won‘t have to think about it: You‘ll just eat less.1. Why did Brian Wansink write Slim by Design: Mindless eating Solutions for EverydayLife?A. Because he wanted people to become thin.B. Because he wished to change the design of dining places only.C. Because he hoped to coin a new phase ―mindless eating‖.D. Because he intended to help people make more healthful dietary decisions.2. According to Wansink, which of the following affects the amount of wine we drink ____.A. the shape of wineglassesB. the color of wineglassesC. the taste of wineD. the quality of wine3. The underlined phrase ―a doggie bag‖ in paragraph 5 probably means ____.A. a bag for carrying dogsB. a box for junk foodC. a container for leftoversD. a bag for carrying dog food4. What‘s the main idea of the passage?A. Changing environment or habits of eating will help you eat less.B. Eating fruits and vegetables is better for your health.C. Keeping your kitchen counter clear of any food will help make you thin.D. Many people eat or drink too much without paying attention to it.【答案】DACA【解析】【试源】2015届福建省漳州市高三5月适应性考试【结束】8.【题文】Listening to music while you drive can improve your speed and ability to get away from accidents, according to Australian psychologists. But turning your car radio up to full volume could probably make you end up in an accident. The performance of difficult tasks can be influenced if people are subjected to loud noise. The experience of pulling up at traffic lights alongside cars with loud music made some psychologists in the University of Sydney look into whether loud music has something to do with driving.The psychologists invited 60 men and women aged between 20 and 28 as subjects and tested them on almost the same driving tasks under three noise conditions: silence, rock music played at a gentle 55 decibels (分贝), and the same music at 85 decibels.For 10 minutes the subjects sat in front of a screen operating a simple machine like a car. They had to track (追踪) a moving disk on screen, respond to traffic signals changing color, and brake in response to arrows that appeared without warning.On the tracking task, there was no difference in performance under the three noise conditions. But under both the loud and quiet music conditions, the performers ―braked‖ at a red light about 50 milliseconds sooner than they did when there was no rock music at all. That could mean a reduction in braking distance of a couple of meters actually, the difference between life and death for a pedestrian.When it came to the arrows that appeared across the visual field, the psychologists found that when the music was quiet, people responded faster to objects in their central field of sight by about 50 milliseconds. For the people listening at 85 decibels, response times were dropped by a further 50 milliseconds —a whole tenth of second faster than those ―driving‖ with no music.―But there‘s a trade-off,‖ the psychologists told the European Congress of Psychology. ―They lose the ability to look around the whole situation effectively.‖ In responding to objects that suddenly appeared, people subjected to 85-decibel rock music were around 100 milliseconds slower than both the other groups. Since some accidents — such as children running into the road — take place without any notice, drivers listening to loud music must be less safe as a result.1. Where did the researchers do the experiment?A. At crossroads.B. At a police traffic station.C. In a crowded street.D. Under the experimental conditions as those of the streets.2. What does the underlined sentence ―there‘s a trade-off‖ in paragraph six mean?A. Every coin has two sides.B. Business is business.C. Practice makes perfect.D. A loss may turn out to be a gain.3. Which of the following is NOT true of loud music?A. It helped the performers to brake sooner at red lights.B. It quicke ned the performers‘ response to objects in their central field of sightC. It helped the performers to respond faster to objects suddenly stepping in the way.D. It can sometimes do harm to drivers.4. On the whole, which of the following is the best way to make driving safer?A. Loud music.B. Quiet music.C. Silence.D. Heavy metal music.【答案】DACB【解析】【试源】2015届福建省漳州市高三5月适应性考试【结束】9.【题文】A brook(小河) would lose its song if we remove the stones from its way.
