（广东省五校2018届高三12月联考）The Whizzfizzing Festival
One of the “Home Counties” to the north and west of London, Buckinghamshire is known for the rolling Chiltern Hills, its pretty villages, and the much-loved children’s author Roald Dahl.
The writer who penned Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, The Witches, Matildo and The Big Friendly Giant is the inspiration for the Whizzfizzing festival—which will transform the market-town of Aylesbury into all kinds of music, colour and fun on Saturday, 1 July.
Formerly known as The Roald Dahl Festival, this year’s event will celebrate a broad range of children’s films and bring to life some of its best-loved characters—from Alice in Wonderland and the Gruffalo to The Big Friendly Giant and Harry Potter.
The festivities start at 11 am with a colourful children’s parade. More than 650 local school children and teachers, many in fancy dress, will march through the town carrying giant carnival puppets, with thousands of audiences lining the streets to watch.
The parade will be followed with a range of child-friendly activities and workshops held in main streets across the town.
Don’t be late for the Mad Hatters Tea P arty in the Bucks Country Museum. Catch a splendid screening of a Roald Dahl movie in the Old Court House, watch leading children’s authors, including Julian Clary, and give readings in the Market Square.
With hands on arts and crafts workshops, storytelling sessions, live music, a fancy dress competition, street theatre and more, there is something for everyone. For more information, visit:https://https://www.doczj.com/doc/aa14137463.html,/aylesbury-whizzfizzing-festival-inspired-roald-dohl

（河北省五个一联盟2018届高三上二次联考）Two of the saddest words in the English language are “if only”. I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words, because they convey regret, lost opportunities, mistakes, and disappointment.
My father is famous in our family for saying, “Take the extra minute to do it right.” I always try to l ive by the “extra minute” rule. When my children were young and likely to cause accidents, I always thought about what I could do to avoid an “if only” moment, whether it was something minor like moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a counter, or something that required a little more work such as taping padding(衬垫) onto the sharp corners of a glass coffee table.
I don’t only avoid those “if only” moments when it comes to safety. It’s equally important to avoid “if only” in our personal rela tionships. We all know people who lost a loved one and regretted that they had
forgone an opportunity to say “I love you” or “I forgive you”. When my father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday, I told him that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldn’t be here. But then I thought about the fact that he’s 84 years old and I realized that I shouldn’t miss an opportunity to see him. I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all.
I know there will still be occasions when I have to say if only about something, but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality. And even though it takes an extra minute to do something right, or it occasionally takes an hour or two in my busy schedule to make a personal connection, I know that I’ m doing the right thing. I’m buying myself peace of mind and that’s the best kind of insurance for my emotional well-being.
24. Why does the writer regard “if only” as two of the saddest words in the English language?
A. Because people use them when they feel sad.
B. Because they express regret and disappointment in life.
C. Because they remind the writer of some sad experiences.
D. Because they mean sad in the English language.
25. What’s the meaning of the underlined word “foregone” in Paragraph 3?
A. Given up.
B. Come across.
C. Got through.
D. Held back.
26. The author decided to go to her office on Good Friday to .
A. see a doctor
B. finish her work
C. join a celebration
D. accompany her father
27. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Advice from My Father
B. Avoidance of Saying “If Only”
C. The “Extra Minute” Rule
D. The Importance of Emotional Well-being
C
（辽宁省大连市2018届高三二次联考）“One of the reason I find this topic very interesting is because my mom was a smoker when I was younger,” says Lindson-Hawley, who studies tobacco and health at the University of Oxford.
By studying about 700 adult smokers, she found out that mom quit the right way-by stopping abruptly and completely.
In her study, participants were randomly(随机地) assigned to two groups. One had to quit abruptly on a given day, going from about a pack a day to zero. The other cut down gradually over the course of two weeks. People in both groups used nicotine replacement, like gum or spray. They also had talk therapy(疗法) with a nurse before and after quit day.
Six months later, more people who had quit abruptly had stuck with it---more than one-fifth of them, compared to about one-seventh in the other group. Although these numbers appear low, it is much higher than if people try without support.
And the quit rates were particularly convincing given that before the study started, most of the people had said they’d rather cut down gradually before quitting. “If you’re training for a marathon, you wouldn’t expect to turn up and just be able to run it. And I think people see that for smoking as well. They think, ‘Well, if I gradually reduce, it’s like practice,’” says Lindson-Hawley. But that wasn’t the case. Instead of giving people practice, the gradual reduction likely gave them addiction and withdrawal symptoms(脱瘾症状) before they even reached the day, which could be why fewer people in that group actually made it to that point. “Regardless of your stated preference, if you’re ready to quit, quitting abruptly is more effective,” says Dr. Gabriela Ferreira. “When you can quote a specific number like a fifth of the patients were able to quit, that’s acceptable. It gives them the encouragement, I think, to really go for it,” Ferreira says.
People rarely manage to quit the first time they try. But at least, she says, they can maximize the odds of success.
28. What dose Lindson-Hawley say about her mother?
A. She quit smoki ng with her daughter’s help.
B. She was also a researcher of tobacco and health.
C. She studied the smoking patterns of adult smokers.
D. She succeeded in quitting smoking abruptly.
29. What kind of support did smokers receive to quit smoking in Lindson-Hawley’s study?
A. They were given physical training.
B. They were offered nicotine replacement.
C. They were encouraged by psychologist.
D. They were looked after by physicians.
30. How does Dr. Gabriela Ferreira view the result of Lindson-Hawley’s experiment?
A. It is encouraging.
B. It is unexpected.
C. It is impractical.
D. It is misleading.
31. Take the idea of “a marathon” (Para.5) as an example to show that quitting smoking .
A. is something few can accomplish
B. requires a lot of patience
C. needs some practice first
D. is a challenge at the beginning
D
（四川省南充一中2018届高三上第三次检测）My daughter went to see The Wild One recently and she commented that Marion Brando was wearing jeans so long ago. Of course he helped set the trend, so that got me thinking about the link between films and trends in fashion. Fashion and films have gone hand in hand for long. The Wild One is a good example: it appeared in 1954, starring Brando. Dressed in a black leather motorcycle jacket, leather cap and jeans, he created a look which is still considered “cool” today. Everyone from Madonna to middle-aged men is seen wearing the classic leather motorcycle jacket.
Another strong influence on fashion trends was Breakfast at Tiffany’s, stalling Audrey Hep burn. She made famous the simple black chess that looks perfect at either a cocktail party or just standing around an expensive department store like Tiffany’s with a pastry and coffee in your hand, as Audrey Hepburn does in the film. She looks so elegant, wearing simple but beautiful dresses, big dark glasses and a string of pearls around her neck. Audrey Hepburn still influences women’s fashion with her “Tiffany’s look”.
In more modem times, the film star Uma Thurman created a major fashion trend when she appeared in the film Pulp Fiction, made in 1994. Her style was very simple. Her black trousers, crisp white shirt and hair style was copied by women in the world.
Influencing fashion trends can often be about timing. The movie Memoirs of a Geisha came just in time to start a trend in Japanese fashion. It starred the Chinese actress Zhang Ziyi, who wore beautiful silk kimonos (和服), and it won an Oscar for Costume Design. Many travel companies picked up oil the trend and
ran “geisha trips” to Japan. The film has also led to a regained interest in kimonos. It is now quite common to see young Japanese women wearing kimonos not just on traditional occasions, but at various social events. The fashion is also beginning to spread to western countries.
32. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Films and fashion
B. Stars’ fashion
C. Influential films
D. Film cultures
33. Who will people associate Madonna wearing the leather motorcycle jacket with?
A. Zhang Ziyi.
B. Audrey Hepburn.
C. Uma Thurman.
D. Marlon Brando.
34. What is implied in the film Breakfast in Tiffany’s according to the passage?
A. One can be active by wearing black.
B. One can be elegant by wearing simply.
C. One can be famous by looking perfect.
D. One can be stylish b y eating at Tiffany’s.
35. What does the film Memoirs of a Geisha lead to?
A. The popularity of the Chinese actress.
B. The worldwide reading of Geisha stories.
C. The recovery of interest in kimonos.
D. The “geisha trips” to social events.
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，选项中有两项为多余选项。
（河南省中原名校2018届高三第三次质量考评）Did you feel like the negative remark was more influential than the compliments that you received earlier? If the answer to the question is “Yes”, then you are not alone. ___36___
When negative remarks come about, you remind yourself that it is only someon e’s opinion and everyone is entitled (使享有权利) to express their opinions. They have the right to say anything they want to say.___37___. You can choose to do whatever you feel necessary with that person’s opinion. When I was a kid, I heard a saying —“A barking dog won’t stop a moving carriage.” That is to say if a carriage is moving and a
dog is running after it while barking, the carriage won’t stop because of that dog’s barking.
As to campus bullying, I suggest an exercise to kids who are being bullied at school. ___38___ Take a deep breath, in through your nose. Exhale out of your mouth, and pretend there is a drinking straw (吸管) in your mouth so that you exhale air in a straight line. This short exercise will be calming, and allow you to stay cool.
__39___. I personally do not know anyone who is calm. What I’m suggesting is that you learn to productively deal with other people’s negatively, and take control of your emotions and thoughts. In an article in Psychology Today, Dr Raj Raghunathan says, “The diff erence between ordinary people and extraordinary people is simple. Extraordinary people choose to listen to their positivity and ignore other people’s negativity.”__40___. So you should learn how to deal with negative remarks and not let them control your emotions and thoughts.
A. Meantime, you choose to be affected by the negative remakes.
B. They see things differently.
C. There are many people feelings like this, but you all need to learn how to handle negative remarks.
D. As far as I’m concerned, some else’s opinion is not necessarily a reflection of your reality.
E. Now I’m not asking you to become calm.
F. Therefore, you must stay calm.
G. Please do the exercise next time someone is pushing your buttons or getting under your skin, and you’re about to lose your temper.

Dear John,
I’m writing to tell you something about Chinese Character Writing Day in our city.
With the popularity of mobile phones, computers and the Internet, many people have few opportunities to write in daily life. Consequently, people tend to forget how to write Chinese characters when they have to. Therefore, a special day is needed to arouse people’s interest in Chinese characters and encourage people to write them more often. Moreover, it’s a good way to keep our traditional culture alive.
Now September 28th is chosen as Chinese Character Writing Day, for it is the birthday of Confucius. Various activities will be held that day, such as handwriting contests and exhibitions of calligraphy, through which people can enjoy the beauty of the Chinese language and experience a culture of amazing depth and variety as well.
You are welcome to join us.
Yours,

人大附中2018届高三第二次模拟考试（二模）卷 语文 一、（湖北省2018届高三第二次模拟）现代文阅读（35分） （一）论述类文本阅读（本题共3小题，9分） 阅读下面的文字，完成1-3题。 孟子在道德人格境界上的理念，首先集中体现为其消解了孔子以来所形成的儒家圣人人格的崇高性和神秘性的色彩，去除了圣人与凡人的等级划分，从而在道德人格境界上赋予人以自由而平等的权利。从这个意义上而言，孟子思想是对孔子思想的显著超越。在孔子的理想人格境界中，圣人作为一种最高的人格类型，具有强烈的神秘性、崇高性、等级性色彩。圣人在孔子的心目中是至高无上的道德存在，同时圣人又是“不可见的”，具有极强的神秘色彩；圣人与凡人处于不同的等级序列。孟子则不然，孟子认为每个人都是可以自由地成圣成贤的，圣人并不是“高等级”的道德存在，而是与凡人处于同等地位的。当曹交问孟子“人皆可以为尧舜，有诸?”，孟子给出了非常肯定的答复：“尧舜之道，孝弟而已矣。”也即是说，尧舜的道德精神是简明的，你只要按照仁义孝悌的道德原则来要求自己，你就可以成为尧舜。在孟子的观念中，圣人并不是异类，“圣人与我同类者”（《孟子·告子》），圣人之心与我之心同然，因为仁义礼智之义理存乎每个人之心。圣人只是先得仁义礼智之心，因而成了圣人。而凡人之所以没有成为圣人，并不是因为凡人比圣人低下，而只是因为外物和欲望遮蔽了本心。只要去除遮蔽、发扬本心，人人皆可以成为圣人。也正因为如此，在成圣成贤的道路上，每个人都是自由而平等的道德主体，都可以通过扩充和发扬道德本心，从而成为像尧舜一样的圣人。 其次，孟子在人格境界上并不认可人格的单一性，而是坚持人格的多元性，从而给予道德主体更多的道德人格境界的自由选择空间。孔子所形成的儒家传统，往往把圣人塑造为十全十美、超凡脱俗的人格类型，从而制造了圣人的统一模板，它更多的是供人瞻仰，凡人只能接近圣人，而永远不可能学成圣人。但是，在孟子的伦理思想中，圣人不仅是可以自由学成的，而且圣人本身也没有统一模板，并不存在统一标准来界定圣人与非圣人。孟子曰：“伯夷，圣之清者也；柳下惠，圣之和者也；孔子，圣之时者也。”由此可见，在孟子的伦理阐述中，伯夷、柳下惠等都是圣人，他们具有多样的个性特征而不存在统一的模板，并且他们的人格也并非十全十美，比如，伯夷过于清高不能与现实社会相融，柳下惠过于随和而缺乏独立性等。但是，孟子依然把他们看作圣人。而对于

But how about movies for phones? They are getting their turn at MoFilm— the first mobile film festival. The first MoFilm competition received 250 entries from more than 100 countries. Entries were restricted to films that were five minutes or less in length—best for viewing and sharing on mobile phones. An independent team of judges then selected a shortlist of five film-makers. The winner was chosen from the shortlist by an audience voting using their phones. New Platforms The awards highlight the increasing influence that mobile phones are showing in the entertainment industry. Many grassroots filmmakers start out with short films. They are thwarted by the lack of opportunities to screen their work. Therefore, mobile phones are increasingly being seen as a new platform for these short works. It is a good place for anyone who wants to express themselves and find a way to have that expression be seen by a wide audience. Just think about how many people have mobile phones in the world!
