J, Ware was made to feel this way almost every day in school.By high school, T, J. was the most celebrated troublemaker in his town. Teachers literally cringed when they saw his name posted on their classroom lists.I met T. J. for the first time when all the students at school were attending ACE training. At first, he showed no interest in the discussion. But slowly, the interactive games drew him in. T. J. had some brilliant thoughts on those situations, which were welcomed by his group. By the end of the activity, the other students on the team were impressed with his concern and ideas and elected T. J. co-chairman of the team.When T. J. showed up at school on Monday morning, a group of teachers were expressing their disagreements to the school principal about his being elected co-chairman. The principal reminded them that the purpose of the program was to uncover any positive feeling and strengthen its practice until true change can take place. The teachers left the meeting, firmly convinced that failure was unavoidable.Two weeks later, T. J. and his friends led a group of 70 students to collect food They collected a school record: 2,854 cans of food in just two hours. The local newspaper covered the event with a full-page article the next day. That newspaper story was posted on the main bulletin board at school, where everyone could see it.T. J. ,s picture was up there for doing something great.T. J. started showing up at school every day and answered questions from teachers for the first time. The event he started now yields 9,000 cans of food in one day, taking care of 70 percent of the need for food for one year.T, J. reminds us that a bird with a broken wing only needs mending.

Treat others as you want to be treated.CMore than four decades ago, British scientist Robert Edwards first witnessed the miracle of human life growing inside a test tube at his Cambridge lab. Since that ground－breaking moment, more than four million babies have been born through IVF(体外受精) and in 2010 his great contribution to science was finally recognized as he was awarded the Nobel Prize for Medicine.The prize for Dr. Edwards, who was given a Daily Mirror Pride of Britain Award in 2008, includes a ￡900，000 cheque. The Nobel Assembly described IVF as “a milestone in modern medicine”.With the help of fellow scientist Patrick Steptoe, the Manchester－born physiologist developed IVF —leading to the birth of the world's first test tube baby. Dr. Steptoe died 10 years later but their work has transformed fertility(生育) treatment and given hope to millions of couples.It was a scientific breakthrough that changed the lives of millions of couples. They said, “His achievements have made it possible to treat infertility, a disease which makes humans unable to have a baby. This condition has been afflicting a large percentage of mankind, including more than 10% of all couples worldwide.”Professor Edwards, who has 5 daughters and 11 grandchildren, began his research at Cambridge University in 1963, after receiving his PhD in 1955.He once said, “The most important thing in life is having a child. Nothing is more special than a child.” With the help of fellow scientist Patrick Steptoe, Prof. Edwards founded the Bourn Hall clinic in Cambridgeshire, which now treats more than 900 women a year. Each year, more than 30, 000 women in Britain now undergo IVF and 11，000 babies are born as a result of the treatment.But his work attracted widespread criticism from some scientists and the Catholic Church who said it was “unethical and immoral”.Martin Johnson, professor of reproductive(生殖的) sciences at the University of Cambridge, said the award was “long overdue”. He said, “We couldn't understand why the Nobel has come so late but he is delighted —this is the cherry on the cake for him.”Professor Edwards was too ill to give interviews but a statement released by his family said he was “thrilled and delighted”.8.What is Robert Edwards' contribution to science?A. Challenging a disease which stops couples having a baby.B. Seeing the wonder of the first tube baby growing.C. Enabling millions of couples to live a better life.D. Helping couples with infertility to have test tube babies.9.What does the underlined word “afflicting” in Paragraph 4 most probably refer to?A. Troubling.B. Developing.C. Improving.D. Frightening.10.It can be inferred from Paragraph 6 and Paragraph 7 that ________.A. some people envied Professor Edwards for his being awardedB. different opinions were voiced on Professor Edwards' workC. Professor Edwards deserved the prize for his breakthroughD. the prize was late because the finding was first considered immoral11.What might be the best title for the passage?A. Life Stories of Robert EdwardsB. Preparations for Having a BabyC. Nobel Prize for IVF Expert EdwardsD. Treatment of Infertility in a LabDYou may have grown up living with lots of siblings, or this may be your first time sharing your living space with someone else. 12. Follow these tips to make sure you and your roommate keep things pleasant and supportive throughout the year (or even years)!Be clear about your expectations from the beginning. Do you know in advance that you hate it when someone hits the snooze button (贪睡闹铃) fifteen times every morning? That you’re a neat freak (怪人)? That you need ten minutes to yourself before talking to anyone after you wake up? 13.It’s not fair to expect him or her to pick up on them right away, and communicating what you need is one of the best ways to avoid problems before they become problems.Address problems when they’re little. Is your roommate always forgetting her things for the shower, and taking yours? 14.Addressing things that annoy you while they’re still little can help your roommate be aware of something she may not otherwise know. And addressing little things is much easier than addressing them after they’ve become big.15.This may seem simple, but it’s probably one of the biggest reasons why roommates experience conflict. Don’t think he’ll mind if you borrow his shoes for a quick soccer game? For all you know, you just stepped over an uncrossable line. Don’t borrow, use, or take anything without getting permission first.Be mindful of who you bring into your room-and how often. 16. But your roommate may not. Be mindful of how often you bring people over. If your roommate studies best in the quiet, and you study best in a group, can you alternate who hits the library and who gets the room?A. Be open to new ideas and experiences.B. Respect all the things that belong to your roommate.C. You may love having your study group into your room.D. Expect to learn, grow and change during the time in the college.E. Are your clothes being borrowed faster than you can wash them?F. Let your roommate know as soon as you can about your little preferences.G. Having a roommate can be both a challenge and a great part of your college experience.二、完形填空Long long ago, a circle missed one piece of its own.

高二年级英语假期作业（2020年3月9号）班级__________ 姓名__________学号_一、阅读理解AA good modern newspaper is an extraordinary piece of reading. It is remarkable first for what it contains: the range of news from local crime to international politics, from sports to business to fashion to science, and the range of comment and special features as well, from editorial page to feature articles and interviews to criticism of books, art, theatre, and music.A newspaper is even more remarkable for the way one reads it: never completely, never straight through, but always by jumping from here to there, in and out, glancing at one piece, reading another article all the way through, reading just a few paragraphs of the next. A good modern newspaper offers a variety to attract many different readers, but far more than any one reader is interested in. What brings this variety together in one place is its topicality(时事性) , its immediate relation to what is happening in your world and your locality now. But immediacy and the speed of production that goes with it mean also that much of what appears in a newspaper has no more than transient value.For all these reasons, no two people really read the same paper: what each person does is to put together, out of the pages of that day’s paper, his own selection and sequence, his own newspaper. For all these reasons, reading newspapers efficiently, which means getting what you want from them without missing things you need but without wasting time, demands skill and self-awareness as you modify and apply the techniques of reading.1.According to the passage, the reason why no two people really read the “same” newspaper is that __________.A.people have different views about what a good newspaper isB.people are rarely interested in the same kind of newsC.people scan for the news they are interested inD.different people prefer different newspapers2.It can be concluded from the passage that newspaper readers _________.A.apply reading techniques skillfullyB.jump from one newspaper to anotherC.appreciate the variety of a newspaperD.read a newspaper selectively usually3.The best title for this passage would be “__________”.A.The Characteristics of a Good NewspaperB.The Variety of a Good NewspaperC.The Importance of Newspaper TopicalityD.Some Suggestions on How to Read a NewspaperBMost dog owners have probably been puzzled waiting for their dog to do its business. Instead of just finding a soft area of grass to go number two, they make a whole ritual(仪式) out of it, spinning in a circle before finally squatting(蹲下). Luckily, the ultimate pet owners’ question may finally have been answered.A few theories have circulated about why dogs might circle before pooping, and most are similar to the reasons they spin before lying down. Trampling around in a circle would flatten the grass around, which would keep tall blades(叶片) from trapping their waste. Another explanation could be that they’re scanning for snakes and predators before they become completely occupied.But Czech researcher Hynek Burda didn’t quite buy into those theories. Do gs evolved from wolves, which didn’t need to worry much about tall grass. And if they were scanning their environment, keeping still to listen and sniff would be more effective than giving the area a quick once-over. Instead, Burda suggested that dogs spin to get a feel for the Earth’s magnetic pull.The Earth has a magnetic field around it protecting it from radiation from space, and some animals seem to use it to get a sense of where its North and South poles are.For instance, it’s how birds know which w ay to migrate. In 2013, Burda published a study in the journal Frontiers in Zoology suggesting dogs have a strong internal compass, too. He and his team spent two years watching 70 dogs poop and pee and recording which way they faced and how strong the magnetic(磁的) field was.As it turns out, when the magnetic field was calm, dogs preferred to poop facing either north or south.The pattern couldn’t explain why dogs like facing the Earth’s poles, but the researchers think it might help them remember where they marked their territory.If they can remember which way they were facing, they might find it easier to find that spot again. So before you roll your eyes when your dog takes ages to do his business, remember that Fido might just be getting scientific about his potty spot.4.What is the ritual for dogs when they do their business?A.They poop twice daily.B.They circle before pooping.C.They usually make their owner impatient.D.They just find a soft area to poop.5.According to Burda, dogs ________.A.look for snakes and predators before poopingB.spin to flatten the grassC.sniff around to scan the environmentD.circle to face a certain direction6.The writer cites “birds” in order to show ________.A.how magic they areB.dogs also can migrateC.dogs have inner compassD.the differences between birds and dogs7.It might be concluded that dogs ________.A.have good reasons to take ages to do his businessB.are more scientific than human beingsC.are sensitive to radiation from spaceD.often play tricks with their ownersCDoing business nowadays without a cellphone? Living a very private life? I can’t imagine it anymore.Journalist Chris Stokel-Walker explained it very well: For the average working person, there’s no greater feeling than powering do wn your computer and kissing goodbye to your work emails for the day. If we’re lucky enough to disconnect from the job on evenings and weekends, we’re overjoyed to leave work emails and the stress that comes with it in the office.But experts say we’re inc reasingly failing to do so, instead bringing the burden home with us and dealing with emails during our free time. Unsurprisingly, this routine has some serious consequences.Working abnormal or long hours has long been linked with depression(抑郁症), anxiety and even heart disease. In addition, the importance of weekend recovery has also been linked with weekly job performance and personal initiative(主动性). And further research showed psychological detachment(脱离) during off-work time reduced emotional exhaustion caused by high job demands and helped people stay engaged.So, if we know all this, it begs the question: Why are we still letting work bother our precious weekend? According to Cary Cooper, professor of Organizational School, the recent trend even spills into the way we access our work communications and projects.Today, says Cooper, work emails are just a tap of a smartphone away. “You don’t carry your laptop around when you’re out to dinner, but you do carry your mobile phone,” he says. “The smartphone does not make up for what is lost.” So delete your work email account from your inbox(收件箱), and leave the worries until Monday.8.What did Chris Stokel-Walker try to stress?A.The development of office work.B.The importance of working hard.C.The pleasure of completing work.D.The power of modern technology.9.What does the underlined part “this routine” in Paragraph 3 refer to?ing a cellphone.B.Working in personal time.C.Failing to work long hours.D.Leaving work emails behind.10.What does Cary Cooper think of working extra hours?A.It isn’t boring.B.It isn’t interesting.C.It isn’t common.D.It isn’t worth.11.What would be the best title for the text?A.Can we live without a cellphone?B.What should we do on weekends?C.Should we ban weekend work emails?D.Who should be blamed for work overload?DTo tip or not to tip? And how much should you tip?12.While people in the US usually leave a tip of no less than 15 percent of their bills, Britons are known for being less generous and tip 9 percent on average, according to a recent study done by online restaurant booking service Open Table.13. For example, tipping in cafes and fast food restaurants can cause confusion.In casual restaurants, where you pay for your order at a counter but food is brought to your table, tipping is also uncommon.In restaurants where you place your order with a waiter or waitress and receive your food and bill at your table, it’s normal to tip around 10 percent.In some restaurants, a service charge may be added to the bill automatically, usually 10 or 12.5 percent. 38. 14.When you pay by credit card in the UK, the machine may ask if you want to add a tip. According to The Guardian, “Cash tips are paid to employees, while credit card tips are paid to the restaurant.” 15.If so, you don’t need to add a tip on the machine.In s ome cases a restaurant may print “service not included” on the bill or menu.16.. Tipping can be an unexpectedly tricky problem, as there are many cultural differences between countries. So before you go on your trip, be sure to check your destination’s ti pping culture online.A. This means they are asking for a tip.B. In this case, you don’t need to add a further tip.C. It’s normal to tip people even if you haven’t had good service!D. In fact, tipping is appreciated but not always the right thing to do in the UK.E. Unlike in North America, tipping isn’t a big part of British culture.F. Tipping like this has only been seen in Britain for the past 20 years.G. Check your bill to see if a service charge has already been added before paying.二、完形填空阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

They offer to put up travelers free of charge and help them on their ways. At first, it sounded unbelievable. I mean, inviting strangers in to one’s home for one or two nights? Give me a break.However, I was intrigued. I decided to investigate. The only way to truly learn about this phenomenon was to dive in. So I planned a trip to Finland, a country I’ve always wanted to explore. I would cou ch surf at every stop there.If ever any anxiety existed when stepping into the unknown, it disappeared when my first host met meat the train station. Ari looked like my idea of a typical Finn: tall and blue-eyed. Finns were also supposed to be famously reserved (寡言少语的). Ari was anything but. He was a live wire, giving me an enthusiastic welcome and hiking with me to his apartment, where he showed me the sleeper sofa, served me tea, and engaged me in warm conversations. He also handed me a key to come and go as I pleased.If this was what couch surfing was all about － trust and friendship － then I had gotten off to a good start. As I boarded my next train to continue my journey, I began to think about this couch-surfing idea. What urged these people to open their homes to strangers? I concluded that there was a desire to lend a hand to like-minded folks who might enrich their own lives.Seven cities in 14 days. Seven hosts. Seven new friends. If couch surfing taught me anything, it’s this: Most people are go od and generous. Where will couch surfing take me next? Who knows? But I can’t wait to find out.28.Which of the following best explains ―intrigued‖ underlined in the second paragraph?A. Relaxed.B. Disgusted.C. Interested.D. Embarrassed.29.What can we know about Ari?A. He was reserved like most Finns.B. He talked less but he was friendly.C. He treated the author as a friend.D. He saw off the author at the train station.30.Why did people offer couch surfing to strangers?A. To take an adventure with strangers.B. To exchange houses for a short time.C. To learn more about others’ family lives.D. To enrich their own lives by helping others.31.What can be the suitable title for the text?A. Travel on Trust and CouchesB. A Free Travel in FinlandC. Experiences in Strangers’ HousesD. A Plan for Couch Surfing三、任务型阅读Everyone needs friends. There is an old saying: 32.

numeric PIN code(数字密码)to unlock your smartphone or relying on a swipe(滑动)pattern?New research suggests that,at least when someone close by could be looking over your shoulder,you might be safer with an old-fashioned PIN.The research by the United States Naval Academy and the University of Maryland tested what could best secure smartphones from so-called"shoulder surfing attacks".So,if you are worried about someone looking over your shoulder while you unlock your phone,would you be wiser to use a PIN or a pattern?According to this research at least,the answer to that question is pretty clear.Those who have a single observation of your screen as you unlock it with a swipe pattern will be successful in knowing it64.2%of the time.Security can be improved somewhat by removing lines on the pattern lock(35.3%success rate for shoulder surfers).By comparison,the use of a six-digit PIN greatly reduces the chances for an attacker to determine how to unlock your smartphone,with just10.8%of attacks being successful.In tests, viewers were able to determine the users'lock-screen patterns from up to six feet away,from a variety of different angles,even after a single viewing.Indeed,when it comes to safety,past research has determined that an unlock pattern is about the same as a three-digit PIN-something I hope that none of us would rely upon.The researchers'conclusion is that a PIN of six digits or more is the most secure de fence against shoulder surfing attacks,and while both types of pattern lock are poor,patterns without lines provide greater security.Unsurprisingly,the research confirmed that phones with larger screens were found to provide less security against shoulder surfing attacks.4.What did the research focus on?A.What lock-screen patterns people use.B.When shoulder surfing attacks occur.C.Why people prefer numeric PIN codes.D.How you can unlock your phone safely.5.What do we learn about shoulder surfing attacks?A.They can increase our screen time.B.They are a threat to our privacy.C.They are a kind of physical attack.D.They can be done through remote control.6.Which of the following proves to be the safest?A.A six-digit PIN.B.A three-digit PIN.C.A lock-screen pattern with lines.D.A lock-screen pattern without lines.7.What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph?A.Add some background information.B.Provide some advice for the readers.C.Offer additional topic-related information.D.Summarize the previous paragraphs.COn Tuesday,Apple's CEO Tim Cook announced the Apple Watch.The new smart device, which is worn on the wrist,just like a normal watch,can do all the things a cell phone does--and more.At$349,the Apple Watch is expensive.Some experts doubt that they will become as successful as smartphones.It does seem likely,though,that the device will open yet another door in personal computing.The watch is the smartest computer yet.It taps you on the wrist whenever a new message comes in.It prepares answers to questions you receive from friends.It reminds you where you parked your car.It tracks your health.It even allows you to send your heartbeat to others.When it goes on sale early next year,it will be Apple's first item in a new category of technology--wearable computers.If the Apple Watch becomes popular,it will change the way the world interacts with computers.People may depend on the smart jewelry even more than they already depend on their phones."It might not only be a game changer for Apple,but for the entire industry."says technology expert Daniel Ives."A lot of major technology players around the globe are taking notes on what Apple is trying to do here."The Apple watch is specially designed for a smaller device.An entire computer fits onto a single chip(芯片).Users will be able to scroll(滚屏)just like they would do on an iPhone.It will have a built-in speaker for alarms that users can both hear and feel.Pressing the side button brings up contacts so you can communicate with people quickly and easily.Apple Watch also introduces health and fitness apps that can help people lead healthier lives.The built-in heart rate sensor(传感器)and GPS will track calories burned and workouts.According to Matt Vella,a writer for TIME magazine,the watch is the most exciting device since the iPad.After actually trying the watch,he says,“It sits on the wrist very naturally.You could easily forget you are wearing the Apple Watch,and you will."8.What does the underlined sentence in the third paragraph imply?A.Apple Watch will include many new games.B.Many game developers will pay attention to Apple Watch.C.Apple plays an important part in the personal computing field.D.Apple Watch will greatly influence the personal computing field.9.The

a cold January evening last year,the two friends ventured(冒险)onto the frozen pond near their homes in Frankfort,Illinois,to get a better look.First,they threw a rock onto the ice to test it,Cruz told NBC5Chicago.“Then we stepped on it.”Convinced the ice would hold their weight,Anthony took a few steps,but then he fell through the seemingly frozen surface.Cruz rushed to help his panicked friend.However,the pond swallowed him,too.Cruz managed to lift himself out of the extremely cold water and onto a more solid section.He then gingerly worked his way toward Anthony.But the ice didn’t hold,and he fell in again.This ime, he couldn’t get out.The boys were up to their necks in icy water and quickly losing feeling.Any chance of their freeing themselves was slipping away.Cruz was sure that he was going to die.Anthony’s older sister had seen the boys fall through the ice and started screaming,wishing someone to save them.John Lavin,a neighbor driving nearby on his way to the grocery store,heard her.He quickly pulled over.Seeing the boys,he grabbed(抓住)a nearby buoy(救生圈),kicked off his shoes,and ran into the cold water,struggling his way through the vin made his way to Cruz and Anthony and pulled them back to land.The boys were taken to the hospital,where doctors discovered that their five-minute stay in the water had lowered their body temperature nearly ten degrees.Fortunately,they have fully recovered,though they are still a little amazed by their fearless neighbor.“Just to think,”says Cruz,“if he hadn’t been there,I could have died.”12.Why did the boys
