A woman from Japan was telling a friend about her trip to the United States. The woman 21 major businesses and investment companies in New York City and Chicago.
"I studied English 22 I left home," she said. "But I 23 was not sure that people were speaking English."
Her problem is 24 to understand. Americans in business are like people who are in business anywhere. They have a language 25 . Some of the words and expressions 26 the special areas of their work. 27 expressions are borrowed from different kinds of work such as the theater and movie industry.
28 saying is get your act together.
When things go wrong in a business, an employer may get angry. He may 29 , "Stop making mistakes. Get your act together."
30 , if the employer is calmer, he may say, "Let 31 act together."
32 way, the meaning is the same. Getting your act together is getting organized. In business, it usually means to develop a calm and 33 plan of action.
It is difficult to tell 34 the saying began. But, it is probable that it was in the theater or movie industry. Perhaps one of the 35 was nervous and made a lot of mistakes. The director may have said, " 36 , now. Get your act together."
Word expert James Rogers says the expression was 37 by the late nineteen seventies. Mister Rogers says the Manchester Guardian newspaper used it in nineteen seventy-eight. The newspaper said a reform policy 38 that the British government get its act together.
Now, this expression is heard 39 when officials of a company meet. One company
40 called its yearly report, "Getting Our Act Together”.

第二部分：阅读理解（第一节20小题，第二节5小题；每小题2分, 满分50分）
第一节：阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D) 中, 选出最佳选项, 并在答题纸上将该选项标号涂黑。
A
The bicycling craze came in when we were just about at the right age to enjoy it. At first even “safety” bicycles were too dangerous and improper for ladie s to ride, and they had to have tricycles. My mother had (I believe) the first female tricycle in Cambridge; and I had a little one, and we used to go out for family rides, all together; my father in front on a bicycle, and my poor brother Charles standing miserable on the bar behind my mother. I found it very hard work, pounding(轰隆隆行进) away on my hard tyres; a glorious, but not a pleasurable pastime.
Then, one day at lunch, my father said he had just seen a new kind of tyre, filled up with air, and he thought it might be a success. And soon after that everyone had bicycles, ladies and all; and bicycling became the smart thing, and the lords and ladies had their pictures in the papers, riding along in the park, in straw hats.
My mother must have fallen off her bicycle pretty often, for I remember seeing the most appalling cuts and bruises(青肿) on her legs. But she never complained, and always kept these accidents to herself. However, the great Mrs. Phillips, our cook, always knew all about them; as indeed she knew practically everythin g that ever happened. She used to draw us into the servants? hall to tell us privately: “Her Ladyship had a nasty fall yesterday; she cut both her knees and sprained her wrist. But don?t let her know I told you.” So we never dared say anything. Similar little accidents used to occur when, at the age of nearly seventy, she insisted on learning to drive a car. She never mastered the art of reversing(倒车), and was in every way an unconventional and terrifying driver. Mrs. Phillips used then to tell us: “Her Lad yship ran into the back of a milk-cart
yesterday; but it wasn?t much hurt”; or “A policeman stopped her Ladyship because she was on the wrong side of the road; but she said she didn?t know what the white line on the road meant, so he explained and let her go on.” Mrs. Phillips must have had an excellent Intelligence Service at her command, for the stories were always true enough.
41. Women did not ride bicycles at first because ______.
A. bicycling demanded too much hard work
B. bicycling was considered unsafe and unladylike
C. they preferred to ride tricycles
D. tricycles could carry young children as well
42. How did the writer feel about tricycles?
A. They were very hard to ride.
B. They were safer and more convenient for women.
C. They were not as fast as bicycles.
D. They were not proper for women to ride.
43. Cycling became popular when ______.
A. the writer?s father popularised it
B. air-filled tyres began to be used
C. noble people started enjoying it
D. newspapers had pictures of cyclists
44. The writer admired Mrs. Phillips because ______.
A. she was the best cook they had ever had
B. she was in command of all the servants
C. she could keep secrets
D. she had an outstanding ability to gather information
45. The writer?s mother always had car acci dents because ______.
A. she could not control the car
B. she was very old then
C. she did not understand the road system
D. she behaved too proudly
B
Before meeting with my friend Leticia from Honduras, Central America, I would ask her if she was arriving according to North American time or Latin American time. Smiling, she would answer, "A la hora Latina, of course." This meant that she would be late. The concept of time is very different for Latin Americans than for North Americans.
Life in the United States is fast-paced. There are fast food restaurants, overnight delivery services, shuttle services, instant cash machines, fast weight loss plans, and even instant minute rice. Keenly following such sayings as, "The early bird gets the worm," and, "First come, first served," North Americans even have their meals in an efficient manner. Microwaves help warm up their early breakfasts, noon lunches, and five-o'clock dinners.
"Time is money" for big businesses. Everyone follows set agendas（议事日程）. Minutes are taken at meetings that are precisely scheduled. North Americans take pride in juggling busy work schedules and still finding time to spend with family and friends.
Latin Americans stroll leisurely through life. They wander past open-air restaurants, across shaded patios tucked behind walls of Bougainvillea. In the cafes, the service is slow but courteous. Outside on the streets, people walk by, not for weight purposes, but to get somewhere. Buses arrive and depart on their own schedule, sometimes sooner or later than their printed times. And if you miss the bus, wait. One will come along eventually. Mid-morning breakfasts are homemade. Lunch is around three in the afternoon and dinner could be anytime after the arranged time. No
one follows a set agenda, but business is accomplished at a gradual and comfortable pace. Watches are not followed precisely, and one barely ever hears the question, "What time is it?"
This cultural difference has proven to be a problem for many North Americans visiting Latin American countries and vice versa. For example, this problem has escalated on the issue of adoption. While in Honduras the summer of 1989, I translated for couples from the United States who were looking for children to adopt from Central America. All legal procedures were transacted between a lawyer from the U.S. and a Honduran lawyer. Legal matters on the North American end were handled almost immediately. The Honduran lawyer, however, was considerably slower with field work and paper work and was unable to give definite dates or times for the completion of the adoption. This created a cultural barrier and added to the confusion of the situation.
Without understanding these cultural differences, one could eventually feel offended. Having lived for five years in the Dominican Republic, I am able to understand the two concepts of time but am torn between them. People in the United States, while accomplishing much, need to live less by the clock and stroll through more of their days. Although Latin America can sometimes be very frustrating and remind us that, indeed, patience is a virtue, one should slow down long enough to enjoy life's simple pleasure. So whenever I am asked, "Why are you late?" I simply reply, "According to whose time?"
46. Which is probably North Am ericans? behavior?
A. Walk to the destination even though it is far away.
B. Have dinner at 9pm in the evening.
C. Plan the meeting time precisely.
D. Do business in a slow pace.
47. If you invite a Latin American friend for a party at 8p.m., when will he/she be likely to
arrive?
A. After 8p.m..
B. Before 8p.m..
C. At 8p.m..
D. Not come.
48. That the writer gives an example of adoption is to show that ______.
A. it is impossible for North Americans to adopt a child from Latin America
B. Latin American lawyers are incapable
C. North Americans and Latin Americans can?t work together
D. the different time concepts may cause difficulties in the cooperation between North
Americans and Latin Americans
49. What?s the writer?s opinion on North Americans? and Latin Americans? attitudes towards
time?
A. North Americans? attitude is better.
B. Both are good.
C. Latin Americans? attitude is better.
D. Neither is good.
50. What does the writer want to convey?
A. It is important to learn about cultural differences.
B. In this fast-pace society, we should learn to slow down and enjoy life.
C. Patience is a virtue.
D. We need to live by the clock in this competitive society.
C
Going to school means learning new skills and facts in such subjects as reading, math, science, history, art or music. Teachers teach and students learn, and many scientists are interested in finding ways to improve both the teaching and learning processes.
Some researchers, such as Sian Beilock and Susan Levine, are trying to learn about learning. Beilock and Levine are psychologists at the University of Chicago. Psychologists study the ways people think and behave, and these researchers want to know how a person?s thoughts and behavior are related.
In a new study about the way kids learn math in elementary school, Beilock and Levine found a surprising relationship between what female teachers think and what female students learn: If a female teacher is uncomfortable with her own math skills, then her female students are more likely to believe that boys are better than girls at math.
“If these girls keep getting math-anxious female teachers in later grades, it may create a snowball effect on their math achievement,” Levine told Science News. The study suggests that if these girls grow up believing that boys are better at math than girls are, then these girls may not do as well as they would have if they were more confident.
Just as students find certain subjects to be difficult, teachers can find certain subjects to be difficult to learn—and teach. The subject of math can be particularly difficult for everyone. Researchers use the word “anxiety” to describe such feelings: anxiety is uneasiness or worry. (Many people, for example, have anx iety about going to the dentist because they?re worried about pain.)
The new study found that when a teacher has anxiety about math, that feeling can influence how her female students feel about math. The study involved 65 girls, 52 boys and 17 first- and second-grade teachers in elementary schools in the Midwest. The students took math achievement tests at the beginning and end of the school year, and the researchers compared the scores.
The researchers also gave the students tests to tell whether the students believed that a math superstar had to be a boy. Then the researchers turned to the teachers: To find out which teachers were anxious about math, the researchers asked the teachers how they felt at times when they came across math, such as when reading a sales receipt. A teacher who got nervous looking at the numbers on a sales receipt, for example, was probably anxious about math.
Boys, on average, were unaffected by a teacher?s anxiety. On average, girls with math-anxious teachers scored lower on the end-of-the-year math tests than other girls in the study did. Plus, on the test showing whether someone thought a math superstar had to be a boy, 20 girls showed feeling that boys would be better at math—and all of these girls had been taught by female teachers who had math anxiety.
According to surveys done before this one, college students who want to become elementary school teachers have the highest levels of anxiety about math. Plus, nine of every 10 elementary teachers are women, Levine said.
This stu dy was small, and it?s often difficult to see large patterns in small studies, David Geary told Science News. Geary, a psychologist at the University of Missouri in Columbia, studies how children learn math. “This is an interesting study, but the results n eed to be interpreted as preliminary and in need of replication with a larger sample,” Geary said. That means that the results are just showing something that might be happening, but more studies should be done. If more studies find the same trend as this one, then it?s possible that a teacher?s anxiety over math really is affecting her female students.
51. Sian Beilock and Susan Levine carried out the new research in order to ______.
A. know the effects of teaching on learning
B. study students? ways of learning math
C. prove women teachers are unfit to teach math
D. find better teaching methods for teachers
52. The underlined part in paragraph 4 most probably means that girls may ______.
A. end up learning math with anxiety from their teachers
B. study the ways their female teachers behave
C. have an influence on their math-anxious female teachers
D. gain unexpected achievement in such subjects as math
53. In the study, what were the teachers required to do?
A. Prepare two math achievement tests for the students.
B. Tell their feelings about math problems.
C. Answer whether a math superstar had to be a boy.
D. Compare the students? scores after the math tests.
54. What is the finding of the new study?
A. No male students were affec ted by their teachers? anxiety.
B. Almost all the girls got lower scores in the tests than the boys.
C. About 30% of the girls thought boys are better at math than girls.
D. Girls with math-anxious teachers all failed in the math tests.
55. Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?
A. 117 students and teachers took part in the new study.
B. The researchers felt surprised at the findings of their study.
C. Beilock and Levine are interested in teaching math.
D. Men teachers are better at teaching math than women teachers.
D
Many a young person tells me he wants to be a writer. I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there’s a big difference between “being a writer” and writing. In most cases these individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hours alone at the typewriter. “You?ve got to want to write,” I say to them, “not want to be a writer.”
The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying affair. For every writer kissed by fortune, there are thousands more whose dreams are never fulfilled. Even those who succeed often know long periods of neglect and poverty. I did.
When I left a 20-year career to become a writer, I had no prospect(前途) at all. What I did have was my friend George who found me at my home—a storage room which was cold and had no bathroom. Immediately I bought a used typewriter and felt like a real writer.
After a year or so, however, I still hadn?t received a break and began to doubt myself. It was so hard to sell a story that I barely made enough to eat. Then one day I got a call that changed my life. It wasn?t an agent or editor offering a big contract. It was the opposite—a call persuading me to give up my dream. On the phone was an old acquaintance. He had once lent me money. “When am I going to get the $15, Alex?” he asked.
“Next time I make a sale.”
“I have a better idea,” he said. “We need a new public-information assistant, and we?re paying $6,000 a year. If you want it, you can have it.”
Six thousand a year! That was real money in 1960. I could get a nice apartment, a used car, pay off debts and maybe save a little something. As the dollars were dancing in my head, something cleared my senses. I had dreamed of being a writer-- full time. And that?s what I was goi ng to be. “Thanks, but no,” I heard myself saying. “I?m going to stick it out and write.”
Afterward, as I paced around my little room, I started to feel like a fool. Reaching into my cupboard, I pulled out all that was there: two cans of sardines(沙丁鱼). Putting my hands into my pockets, I came up with 18 cents. I took the cans and coins and jammed them into a paper bag. There Alex, I said to myself. There?s everything you?ve made of yourself so far.
I wish I could say things started getting better right away. But they didn?t. Thank goodness I had George to help me over the rough spots.
Through him I met other struggling artists, like Joe Delaney, a painter. Often Joe lacked food money, so he?d visit a neighborhood butcher(肉贩) who would give him big bones with little meat. That?s all Joe needed to make down-home soup. Another village neighbor was a handsome young singer who ran a struggling restaurant. His name was Harry Belafonte. People like Delaney and Belafonte became role models for me. I learned that you had to make sacrifices and live creatively to keep working at your dreams.
As I absorbed the lesson, I gradually began to sell my articles. I was writing about what many people were talking about then: civil rights, black Americans and Africa. Soon, like birds flying south, my thoughts were drawn back to my childhood. One day at lunch with editors of Reader’s Digest, I said that I had a dream to trace my family?s history to the first African brought to these shores in chains. I left that lunch with a contract that would help support my research and writing for nine years.
Yet in 1970, Roots was published. Instantly I had the kind of fame and success that few writers ever experience. For the first time I had money; the phone rang all the time with new friends and new deals. I packed up and moved to Los Angeles, where I could help in the making of the Roots TV mini-series. I was blinded by the light of my success.
Then one day, while unpacking, I came across a box filled with things I had owned years. Inside was a brown paper bag.
I opened it, and there were two sardine cans and 18 cents. Suddenly the past came flooding in.
I could picture myself once again writing in that cold, one-room apartment. And I said to myself: The things in this bag are part of my roots, too. I can?t ever forget that.
I sent them out to be framed(镶框) in plastic. I keep that clear plastic case where I can see it every day. I can see it now above my office desk, along with prizes Roots won for me. I?d be hard pressed to say which means the most to me. But only one reminds me of the courage and persistence(坚持) it takes to stay the course.

Senior three student will face a problem after they pass by the college entrance examination. Should I choose a good major and a good university? Some students preferred to consider majors first so that they can learn what they are interested. It will also make it possibly for them to take their favorite jobs in the future. However, those who think differently believes that the environment is important to one?s development. They think that students graduate from key universities are often more likely to find a good job. In my opinion, the best choice is to choose a good major at a good university. But if we can obtain both, the first thing to consider is a good major, because no matter where we study, we can still achieve a lot in the certain field if we try our best.

2021届浙江省宁波市效实中学高三9月月考英语试 题 学校_________ 班级__________ 姓名__________ 学号__________ 一、阅读选择 1. Cycling has become more popular in the UK recently for a number of reasons. One of those must be the British cycling success at both the Beijing Olympic Games in 2008 and the London Olympic Games in 201 2. Sir Chris Hoy won three gold medals in Beijing and another two in London. He and Jason Kenny are the most successful Olympic cyclists of all time. The UK also won the Tour de Frances six times. Cycling is not just a sport though, and Tony is just one of the many people who like to cycle long distances because they want to enjoy the natural beauty of the UK. He belongs to Sustrans? a volunteer organization created in the 1980s. Sustrans has combined quieter roads and disused railway tracks to create the National Cycle Network of cycle-friendly routes. Cyclists follow these routes to raise money for charity, but also because they enjoy the scenery across England and like to get away from the busy city life. Connie lives and works in London and, like half a million Londoners every day，she travels to and from work by bike. Since the introduction of the Congestion Charge where drivers pay to bring a car into the center of London during working hours in 2003, the capital city has seen an almost 50 percent increase in the number of people traveling by bike. Cycling to work takes the same amount of time as it would by bus or tube. Connie says that cycling is cheaper and keeps her fit, too. Nigel is a campaigner. In addition to traveling to and from work by bicycle, doing some charity rides and generally enjoying cycling, Nigel runs a local campaigning group and helps organize the ‘critical commute’ ---where cyclists gather every last Friday of the month and cycle into work together. For Nigel, cycling is about saving the planet, a cost-effective way of reducing our carbon footprint today.

Since Lee’s mother was mentally ill, she was raised by her father. She became very close to her father. The naughty Lee loved reading, and would make up stories
with Truman Capote, her neighbor who was two years older than her. Seeing his daughter’s imagination, Lee’s father gave her a typewriter. Before her final year in the University of Alabama, Lee dropped out to become a writer. She moved to New York City where her childhood friend Truman was already established as a famous writer. While there, she worked on her first book —To kill a Mockingbird. It won her the Pulitzer Prize in 1961 and was made into an Academy Award winning movie the following year. To kill a Mockingbird tells the story of six-year-old Scout and her brother who live in the town of Maycomb, Alabama with their single father Atticus. Atticus is a lawyer who defends the blacks. At a young age, Scout is exposed to the terrors of segregation(种族隔离). Then, in 2014, the first draft of a new book —Go Set a Watchman was discovered among Lee’s papers. It is the story of 26-year-old Scout who returns to Maycomb to visit her father. She is shocked to find her father a changed man. Atticus has turned into a segregationist! The story shows the mixed feelings Scout has for the changes that have taken place in her hometown and father. A loner for most of her life, Harper Lee stayed unmarried,
