电阻定律 欧姆定律 要点·疑点·考点 课 前 热 身 能力·思维·方法 延伸·拓展 要点·疑点·考点 1.电流(1)定义：通过导体横截面的电荷量q跟通过这些电荷量所用时间t的比值叫做电流 (2)公式：I=q/t (3)标量，但有方向规定正电荷定向移动方向为电流方向 (4)电流的微观表达式：I=nqvS 要点·疑点·考点 2.部分电路欧姆定律(1)公式：I=U/R (2)适用范围：适用于金属、电解质溶液，但对气态导体(如日光灯管中的气体)和某些导电器件(如晶体管)并不适用 (3)应用时注意： ①U、I与R的一一对应 ②R一定时，I∝U；U一定时，I∝1/R；I一定时，U∝R 要点·疑点·考点 3.电阻定律 (1)电阻：导体对电流的阻碍作用 定义式为R=U/I，但R由导体本身性质决定，与U、I无关，只是可以由U、I的比值度量 (2)电阻定律：R=?L/S (3)材料的电阻率： ?=R· (S/L)，即在数值上等于这种材料制成的长为1m、横截面积为1m2的导体的电阻 ?反映材料导电性能的好坏， ?决定于材料和温度两个因素，金属的电阻率随温度的升高而增大 要点·疑点·考点 (4)超导体 ①超导现象：某些材料在温度为绝对0度附近时电阻率突然减小为0，这种现象为超导现象 ②转变温度TC：材料由正常状态转变为超导状态的温度 ③应用：超导电磁铁、超导电机、计算机超导化 课 前 热 身 1.下面关于欧姆定律的说法中，不正确的是(A) A.欧姆定律普遍适用于各种物体的导电情况 B.导体中的电流与导体两端的电压有关，也与导体的电阻有关 C.对某一导体来说，导体中的电流与其两端的电压成正比 D.在相同电压的情况下，不同导体中的电流跟导体的电阻成反比 课 前 热 身 2.下列关于电流的方向的说法中，正确的是(B) A.电流的方向就是自由电荷定向移动的方向 B.电流的方向规定为正电荷定向移动的方向 C.在金属导体中，电流的方向与自由电子定向移动的方向相同 D.在电解液中，电流的方向与离子定向移动的方向相同 课 前 热 身 3.关于电阻率的正确说法是(B) A.电阻率与导体的长度l和横截面积S有关 B.电阻率反映了材料的导电能力的强弱，由导体的材料决定，且与温度有关 C.电阻率大的导体，电阻一定很大 D.有些合金的电阻率几乎不受温度变化的影响，可用来制成电阻温度计 能力·思维·方法 【例1】在电解液中： (1)若5s内沿相反方向通过面积为0.5m２的横截面积的正、负离子的电量均为5C，则电解液中的电流为 2 A； (2)若5s内到达阳极的负离子和到达阴极的正离子均为5C，则电流为 1 A. 能力·思维·方法 【解析】(1)因I=q/t中q是通过整个截面的电量，并非单位面积通过的电量，且因正负离子沿相反方向定向移动形成的电流方向是相同的，所以q应为正、负离子电量绝对值之和 故I=q/t=(2×5)/5A=2A (2)对阳极进行讨论：据电解液导电原理得知到达阳极的电荷只有负离子，则：I=q/t=5/5A=1A 能力·思维·方法 【例2】铜的摩尔质量为m，密度为?，每摩尔铜原子有n个自由电子，今有一根横截面积为S的铜导线，通过电流为I时，电子平均定向移动速率为(D) A.光速c B.I/(neS) C.?I/(neSm)D.mI/(neS?) 能力·思维·方法 【解析】假设电子的定向移动的速率为v,那么在t秒内通过导体横截面的自由电子数相当于在体积vt·S中的自由电子数，而体积为vtS的铜的质量为vtS?，摩尔数为vtS?/m，自由电子数为vtS?n/m，所以电量q=vtS?ne/m，因电流I=q/t=vS?ne/m,于是得：v=Im/(neS?) 能力·思维·方法 【解题回顾】有许多同学会错选A，这是对生活现象中：“电路一接通，很远处的用电器就能立即开始工作”的错误认识，这种现象的实质是因为电场以光速传播，而不是电荷运动过去，导体中的电荷定向移动的速率远小于光速.所以请同学们留意身边实际，注意正确地理解.能力·思维·方法 【例3】图10-1-1所示的图像所对应的两个导体： (1)电阻关系R1∶R2为 3∶1 ； (2)若两个导体中的电流相等(不为0)时，电压之比U1∶U2为 ３∶1 ； (3)若两个导体的电压相等(不为0)时，电流之比I1∶I2为 1∶3 .能力·思维·方法 【解析】 (1)因为在I-U图像中R=1/k=cos?=△U/△I， 所以R1=(10×10-3)/(5×10-3)＝２?,R2=(10×10-３)/15×10-3?＝２/3? 故R1∶R2=2∶(2/3)=3∶1. (2)由欧姆定律得U1=I1R,U2=I2R2, 由于I1=I2,所以U1∶U2=R1∶R2=3∶1. (3)由欧姆定律得I1=U1/R1,I2=U2/R2，由于 U1=U2所以I1∶I2=R2∶R1=1∶3.能力·思维·方法 【解题回顾】(1)应用图像的斜率对应的物理量，这是图像法讨论问题的方法之一.但要注意坐标轴，若在U-I图像中斜率的物理意义就是电阻了. (2)图线的斜率k=△y/△x或k=tan?其中△y 、 △x是用坐标轴上数值算出的与坐标轴的标度的选取无关，而?角的大小只有在两坐标轴单位长度相同时才等于实际角的大小，从本题图中量出的?角大小就没有实际意义 能力·思维·方法 【例4】如图10-1-2，AB两地间铺有通讯电缆，长为L，它是由两条并在一起彼此绝缘的均匀导线组成的，通常称为双线电缆.在一次事故中经检查断定是电缆上某处的绝缘保持层损坏，导致两导线之间漏电，相当于该处电缆的两导线之间接了一个电阻. 能力·思维·方法 检查人员经过下面的测量可以确定损坏处的位置：(1)令B端的双线断开，在A处测出双线两端间的电阻RA；(2)令A端的双线断开，在B处测出双线两端的电阻RB；(3)在A端的双线间加一已知电压UA，在B端用内阻很大的电压表测出两线间的电压UB. 试由以上测量结果确定损坏处的位置. 能力·思维·方法 【解析】设双线电缆每单位长的电阻为r，漏电处电阻为R，漏电处距A端为x，则 RA=rx+R， RB=r(L-x)+R， 由欧姆定律，可知:R/(rx+R)=UB/UA， 解得x=[RAL(UA-UB)]/[(RA+RB)UA-2RAUB]. 能力·思维·方法 【解题回顾】这是按题中所给的测量结果算出的答案；若仅仅是这么一个实际问题摆在你面前，你是否还能设计出其他测量计算方案呢?(例如选用同样规格的电缆线，用电源、电压、电流表等测出这种电缆线单位长度的电阻，再量出A、B中任意一端的两线间电阻也能解决) 延伸·拓展 【例5】家用电热灭蚊器中电热部分的主要元件是PTC元件，PTC元件是由钛酸钡等半导体材料制成的电阻器，其电阻率与温度的关系如图10-1-3所示，由于这种特性，因此PTC元件具有发热、控温双重功能. 延伸·拓展 对此，以下判断中正确的是( ). A.通电后，其电功率先增大后减小 B.通电后，其电功率先减小后增大 C.当其产生的热量与散发的热量相等时，温度保持在t1或t2不变 D.当其产生的热量与散发的热量相等时，温度保持在t1至t2的某一值不变 延伸·拓展 【解析】这道题突出了学以致用，理论联系实际，可以说是一道较好的试题. 下面介绍家用电热灭蚊器的结构和原理. 电热灭蚊器采用恒温电加热器达到一定的温度，使置于其上的药片的有效药剂挥发至室内的空间中，达到驱蚊灭蚊之功效.其结构如图10-1-4所示. 延伸·拓展 它的外壳有方形、圆形两种.电加热部分主要由PTC元件、陶瓷座、上下电极、绝缘片、传热板组成.陶瓷座耐高温、不导热、电绝缘，起固定上下电极与PTC元件的作用.上下电极起连接PTC元件与电源的作用，下电极具有一定的弹性，利用它的弹性将PTC夹紧.在上电极与传热板之间加有一层导热性强的云母片作为电绝缘物质，防止传热板带电.传热板热容量大、传热快，药片置于其上将有效地挥发药剂. 延伸·拓展 PTC元件是由钛酸钡等半导体材料制成的电阻器，其电阻率与温度的关系如图10-1-3所示.由图可知，PTC元件在0～t1之间随温度升高，电阻率减小(电阻也减小)，但在t1～t2之间，随温度升高，电阻率迅速增大，可以增大上万倍，呈现正温度系数特性.利用PTC的这一特性，既可以用来加热，又可以利用自身产生的热量来控制温度. 延伸·拓展 一般用电热灭蚊器采用的PTC的t1(居里点)为100℃左右，恒温为165℃左右.当刚通电时，PTC发热，温度升高，电阻(率)减小，通过的电流增大，功率增大，发热更快，温度迅速升至居里点.温度再升高，电阻率(电阻)却迅速增大，因电压一定，故通过的电流减小，发热减小，当产生的热量与散发的热量相等时，温度保持不变.因此，PTC元件具有发热、控温双重功能. 延伸·拓展 PTC元件的这一特性，可以很方便地观察到.用多用表R×１K档直接测两电极间电阻，同时用电铬铁头置于传热板加热，可以清楚观察到这样的现象.PTC元件的电阻先逐渐减小，然后又逐渐增大. 检测PTC元件的好坏也可利用上面的方法. 明确电热灭蚊器的上述原理后，不难得到该题的正确选项是AD项.。

People can communicate with their friends or relatives freely in different ways. Among them chatting on the QQ is one of the most popular ones. Almost every Senior student has their own QQ number, with which they can chat with their friends, ask their teachers to help them solve their puzzles and exchange their thoughts. QQ is really a helpful tool to them.However, some students have spent too much time chatting with their QQ friends, some of whom are totally strangers. Most of the chatting on the QQ is completely meaningless. What’s worse, some students have hundreds of QQ friends on the QQ, eating up almost all their spare time, even in the classroom.I do think that QQ can bring us much convenience and benefit when communicating with others, but what we should do is use it properly and reasonably. We should limit our time on it and devote ourselves to our study.【参考答案解析】21. B 考查情景交际。

And36 otherwise assigned(指定) a seat by the teacher, I always 37 to sit at the back of the classroom.All this 38 after I joined a sports team. It began when a teacher suggested I try out for the basketball team. At first I thought it was a crazy 39 because I didn't have a good sense of balance, nor did I have the 40 to keep pace with the others on the team and they would tease me. But for the teacher who kept insisting on my “ 41 for it”, I wouldn't have decided to gi ve it a try.Getting up the courage to go to the tryouts was only the 42 of it! When I first started 43 the practice sessions, I didn't even know the rules of the game, much 44 what I was doing. Sometimes I'd get 45 and take a shot at the wrong direction—which made me feel really stupid. 46 , I wasn't the only one "new" at the game, so I decided to 47 on learn-ing the game, do my best at each practice session, and not be too hard on myself for the things I didn't48 “just yet”.I practiced and practiced. Soon I knew the 49 and the "moves".Being part of a team was fun and motivating. Very soon the competitive 50 in me was winning over my lack of confidence. With time, I learned how to play and made friends in the 51 — friends who respected my efforts to work hard and be a team player. I never had so much fun!With my 52 self-confidence comes more praise from teachers and classmates. I have gone from “ 53 ” in the back of the classroom and not wanting to call attention to myself, 54 raising my hand —even when I sometimes wasn't 100 percent 55 I had the right answer.

The morning after the storm, though, was beautiful: blue skies, warm air and a calm, inviting sea touching the shore gently.My father realised it was a good day for fishing and invited my sister and me to go with him. I was only 14 and fishing had never been my thing, but I decided to go all the same. I' m so glad I did.On the road to the harbour we could see the terrible destruction on the coast, but the harbour itself was in fairly good shape. After all, it was protected by the arms of a bay that had only one tiny channel to the sea. As we got on board, we noticed two big humps (脊背) in the distance.On approaching them, we saw it was a mother whale with her baby. We couldn't believe it — there aren't any whales along the coast here. The storm must have driven them across the ocean into the bay, in which the still water was so badly polluted that nothing could survive.The little baby whale — actually as big as our boat—was obviously stuck and could not move. The mother dived under the water and came up suddenly, making big whirlpools (漩涡) and waves. "She' s trying to help her baby, but on the wrong side, " my father said. At this point, my father moved our boat in a semicircle to the other side and, heading the boat towards the baby whale, pushed it gently. With our several gentle pushes the big hump turned over and disappeared under water. Then it swam up right beside its mum. They struggled in their desperate attempts to escape but missed the exit and started heading in the wrong direction. We hurried up to the whales and tried to lead them towards the bay channel. Slowly, they let us lead them, sometimes rising from the water right beside us to breathe —and to give us a trusting look with those huge eyes. Once they hit their first part of clean water flowing straight from the sea, the mum gave us a wave with her tail and off they swam into the distance.In the excitement it had felt like only a few minutes, but we had been with those wonderful animals for almost an hour and a half. That was the simple and lasting beauty of the day. Nearly four decades later, I still look back fondly to that golden day at sea.56．The author says "I'm so glad I did." ( in Para. 2) because ________.A．he witnessed the whole process of fishingB．he enjoyed the beauty of the calm seaC．he experienced the rescue of the whalesD．he spent the weekend with his family57．The harbour survived the storm owing to ________.A．the shape of the harbour B．the arms of the bayC．the still water in the channel D．the long coast line58．The mother whale failed to help her baby because ________.A．she had stayed in the polluted water for too longB．the whirlpools she had made were not big enoughC．she had no other whales around to turn to for helpD．the waves pushed her baby in the wrong direction59．What is the theme of the story?A．Saving lives brings people a sense of happiness.B．.Fishing provides excitement for children.C．.It's necessary to live in harmony with animals.D．It's vital to protect the environment.BThe elephant was lying heavily on its side, fast asleep. A few dogs started barking at it. The elephant woke up in a terrible anger: it chased the dogs into the village where they ran for safety. That didn't stop the elephant. It destroyed a dozen houses and injured several people. The villagers were scared and angry. Then someone suggested calling Parbati, the elephant princess.Parbati Barua's father was a hunter of tigers and an elephant tamer. He taught Parbati to ride an elephant before she could even walk. He also taught her the dangerous art of the elephant round-up -- how to catch wild elephants.Parbati hasn't always lived in the jungle. After a happy childhood hunting with her father, she was sent to boarding school in the city. But Parbati never got used to being there and many years later she went back to her old life, “Life in the city is too dull. Catching elephants is an adventure and the excitement lasts for days after the chase,” she says.But Parbati doesn't catch elephants just for fun. "My work," she says, "is to rescue man from the elephants, and to keep the elephants safe from man. " And this is exactly what Parbati has been doing for many years. Increasingly, the Indian elephant is angry: for many years, illegal hunters have attacked it and its home in the jungle has been reduced to small pieces of land. It is now fighting back. Whenever wild elephants enter a tea garden or a village, Parbati is called to guide the animals back to the jungle before they can kill.The work of an elephant tamer also involves love and devotion. A good elephant tamer will spend hours a day singing love songs to a newly captured elephant. "Eventually they grow to love their tamers and never forget them. They are also more loyal than humans," she said, as she climbed up one of her elephants and sat on the giant, happy animal. An elephant princess indeed!60．For Parbati, catching elephants is mainly to .A．get long lasting excitement B．keep both man and elephants safeC．send them back to the jungle D．make the angry elephants tame61．Before Parbati studied in a boarding school, .A．she spent her time hunting with her fatherB．she learned how to sing love songsC．she had already been called an elephant princessD．she was taught how to hunt tigers62．Indian elephants are getting increasingly angry and they revenge because __________.A．they are caught and sent for heavy workB．illegal hunters capture them and kill themC．they are attacked and their land gets limitedD．dogs often bark at them and chase them63．The passage starts with an elephant story in order to explain that in India _________.A．people easily fall victims to elephants' attacksB．the man-elephant relationship is getting worseC．elephant tamers are in short supplyD．dogs are as powerful as elephantsCBelow is a housing guide for students going to London.University accommodation(住所) officeMany university accommodation offices have their own list of registered landlords. Others also provide information on accommodation agencies and other housing organizations. The advantage of using your university accommodation office is that you can get some support if you have a problem. Thedisadvantage is that they are unlikely to have enough registered landlords to house all their students. Property papers: Loot and RentingLoot is an important source(来源) of information about private housing for co-renters. The offers are from private landlords, agencies and individuals looking for other co-renters. They also have a website: www. loot. com. The advantage of using Loot is that there are some excellent bargains. The disadvantage is that there is no quality control over the offers.Renting is another useful paper. The offers in this paper are mainly from accommodation agencies. Their website is at www. renting.co. uk.Accommodation agenciesThe majority of rented accommodation in London is probably advertised through accommodation agencies. The advantage of using accommodation agencies is that you will have access to a large number of accommodations. A good agent will listen to your requirements and can save you time in looking for the right accommodation. The disadvantage is that they will make a range of charges to potential renters. NoticeboardsAround the universities you will find a number of noticeboards where offers of accommodation will be posted. These will either be from landlords or from students. Some universities will also have online noticeboards where students can advertise to other students. Advertisements from students can be an excellent way to find accommodation. However, advertisements from landlords can be problematic(有疑问的).Word of mouthSome of the best housing in London is never advertised but is passed on from one group of students to another by word of mouth. It might be that you can find out about good offers from final year students. However, don't suppose that just because you have found out about housing from a friend it is necessarily going to be better than that found through any other source.FamilyFaced with the very high rents charged in London, some students and their parents will consider buying as an alternative. In some cases this might be a good choice.64．What is the advantage of using Loot?A．It has more offers from accommodation agencies than Renting.B．It gives you personal information about other co-renters.C．Their website is designed mainly for students.D．There are some good bargains.65．A good agent can help you______.A．know more people B．find cheap accommodationC．get the right accommodation quickly D．get free information about most accommodations 66．The information passed on by word of mouth is important because______.A．it is better than that found through any other sourceB．it helps you find some of the best housing never advertisedC．the final year students always offer better informationD．the landlords have little valuable information67．For students going to London for the first time, which of the following provides the most reliable information?A．University accommodation offices. B．Loot and Renting.C．Noticeboards. D．Family.DAsk someone what they have done to help the environment recently and they will almost certainly mention recycling. Recycling in the home is very important of course. However, being forced to recycle often means we already have more material than we need. We are dealing with the results of that over-consumption in the greenest way possible, but it would be far better if we did not need to bring so much material home in the first place.The total amount of packaging increased by 12% between 2005 and 2012. It now makes up a third of a typical household’s waste in the UK. In man y supermarkets nowadays food items are packaged twice with plastic and cardboard.Too much packaging is doing serious damage to the environment. The UK, for example, is running out of areas for carrying this unnecessary waste. If such packaging is burnt, it gives off greenhouse gases which go on to cause the greenhouse effect. Recycling helps, but the process itself uses energy. The solution is not to produce such items in the first place. Food waste is a serious problem, too. Too many supermarkets encourage customers to buy more than they need. However, a few of them are coming round to the idea that this cannot continue , encouraging customers to reuse their plastic bags, for example.But this is not just about supermarkets. It is about all of us. We have learned to associate packaging with quality. We have learned to think that something unpackaged is of poor quality. This is especially true of food. But it also applies to a wide range of consumer products, which often have far more packaging than necessary.There are signs of hope. As more of us recycle, we are beginning to realise just how much unnecessary material are collecting. We need to face the wastefulness of our consumer culture, but we have a mountain to climb.68．What does the underlined phrase “over-consumption” refer to?A．Using too much packaging. B．Recycling too many wastes.C．Making more products than necessary. D．Having more material than is needed. 69．The author uses figures in Paragraph 2 to show _______.A．the tendency of cutting household waste B．the increase of packaging recyclingC．the rapid growth of super markets D．the fact of packaging overuse 70．According to the text, recycling ______.A．helps control the greenhouse effect B．means burning packaging for energyC．is the solution to gas shortage D．leads to a waste of land71．What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?A．Unpackaged products are of bad quality. B．Supermarkets care more about packaging.C．It is improper to judge quality by packaging. D．Other products are better packaged than food.EFor many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner. Like a border conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about boundaries: Where is the line between what I control and what you do？Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict. In part, this is because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for starting it. From the parents' point of view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents' complete unreasonableness. And of course, the teens see it in exactly the same way, except oppositely. Both feel trapped.In this article, I'll describe three no-win situations that commonly arise between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap. The first no-win situation is quarrels over unimportant things. Examples include the color of the teen' s hair, the cleanliness of the bedroom, the preferred style of clothing, the child's failure to eat a good breakfast before school, or his tendency to sleep until noon on theweekends.Second, blaming. The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong. Third, needing to be right. It doesn't matter what the topic is —politics, the laws of physics, or the proper way to break an egg — the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong, for both wish to be considered an authority — someone who actually knows something — and therefore to command respect. Unfortunately, as long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other, they'll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress.72．Why does the author compare the parent-teen war to a border conflict?A．Both can continue for generations. B．Both are about where to draw the line.C．Neither has any clear winner. D．Neither can be put to an end.73．What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean?A．The teens blame their parents for starting the conflict.B．The teens agree with their parents on the cause of the conflict.C．The teens accuse their parents of misleading them.D．The teens tend to have a full understanding of their parents.74．Parents and teens want to be right because they want to ____________.A．give orders to the other B．know more than the otherC．gain respect from the other D．get the other to behave properly75．What will the author most probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?A．Causes for the parent-teen conflicts. B．Examples of the parent-teen war.C．Solutions for the parent-teen problems. D．Future of the parent-teen relationship.第II卷（非选择题共35分）第四部分写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节：任务型读写（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后的表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词，每空一个词。

ASo many of us hold on to little complaints that may have come from an argument, a misunderstanding, the way we were raised, or some other painful event. Stubbornly, we wait for someone else to reach out to us—believing this is the only way we can forgive or rekindle a friendship or family relations.A friend of mine, recently told me that she hadn’t spoken to her son in almost three years. She said that she and her son had h ad a disagreement about his wife and that she wouldn’t speak to him again unless he called first. When I suggested that she be the one to reach out, she said, “I can’t do that. He’s the one who should apologize.” After a little gentle encouragement, howeve r, she did decide to be the first one to reach out. To her amazement, her son was grateful for her willingness to call and offered an apology of his own. As is usually the case, when someone takes the chance and reaches out, everyone wins.Whenever we hold on to our anger, we turn “small stuff（问题）” into really “big stuff” in our minds. We start to believe that our positions are more important than our happiness. They are not. If you want to be a more peaceful person you must understand that being right is almost never more important than allowing yourself to be happy. The way to be happy is to let go, and reach out. Let other people be right. This doesn’t mean that you’re wrong. Everything will be fine. You’ll experience the peace of letting go, as well as the joy of letting others be right.You’ll also notice that, as you reach out and let others be “right,” they will become less defensive and more loving toward you. They might even reach back. But, if for some reason they don’t, that’s okay too. You’ll have the inner satisfaction of knowing tha t you have done your part to create a more loving world, and certainly you’ll be more peaceful yourself.21. The underlined word “rekindle” in Paragraph 1 probably means “______”.A. recoverB. developC. acceptD. replace22. In the author’s opinion, we hold on to our anger often because we think ______.A. we can turn small issues into big onesB. our positions are higher than othersC. our own opinions matter mostD. others will be less defensive23. The best thing to do after a quarrel is to_________.A. let go of our own rightsB. realize that you are wrongC. expect others to give inD. apologize to others first24. What is the main idea of the passage?A. People should keep peaceful when facing small stuffB. Reaching out and apologizing wins one peace and happinessC. We should tell apart small and big stuff in our daily lifeD. I t’s necessary to enjoy our friendship and family relationshipBWhile I will explain a bit about the science of stress and relaxation a little later in the chapter, a simple way to think about it is that our body’s stress response works like a car alarm. It is designed to keep us safe by warning us of the presence of danger in our immediate environment.But instead of warning us with a loud and annoying sound, our body alarm system lets us know that something is wrong by creating changes in our neurochemistry (神经化学）.If you’ve ever experienced pain in your stomach, periods of extreme anger, inability to focus or even insomnia (失眠）, chances are your body was paying the price in those moments for the brain chemistry of stress.So if it’s so uncomfortable, why not just get rid of stress altogether?This is not only impractical, it would be dangerous. Let’s go back to the metaphor (比喻说法）of the car alarm. If the alarm is turned off altogether, the car is exposed to continual danger without there being any way of your knowing about it until it is too late. It would be like walking through the jungle without any fear signal in the presence of a poisonous snake or other dangerous animals —while it might feel “nice” to be so relaxed, your body actually needs the stress response not only to remind you of danger but also to offer extra adrenaline (肾上腺素）for your heart and extra blood and oxygen for your arms and legs.However, if the car alarm goes off at any time, someone just looks at the car with a bit of an atti-tude, and it becomes equally useless. Not only do we stop paying attention to it, but it begins to drive us and everyone around us becomes a little bit crazy. In the case of our bodies, walking around in a constant state of alarm also has some pretty alarming health consequences, which we will explore in greater depth in the next chapter.25. Our body's stress response is compared to a car alarm in that_ .A. they work all the timeB. they both give a signalC. they work in the same wayD. they both produce a sound26. When our body alarm system works, _ .A. we feel calmB. we feel excitedC. some changes happen in our brainD. some changes happen in our heart27. What would happen if stress were got rid of completely?A. We'11 be free of worries.B. We'11 achieve a sense of safety.C. We'11 reach a perfect state of mind.D. We'11 fail to realize the possible danger.28. What’s the purpose of giving the example of walking through the Jungle in Paragraph 4 ?A. To show the harm of stress.B. To show the effect of stress.C. To explain the function of stress response.D. To explain the necessity of stress response.CAt the Magazine we welcome your contributions!

To teach or not to teachcursive is the question that several state education departments are struggling with.Before you read this write-up, do a simple exercise. Pick a pen and paper and start writing in cursive. Yes, that fancy handwriting that you learned in grade school. You may not have forgotten the good times you had while writing loopy Ps and Gs as well as curly Ms and Ns. However, the chances are you won't be able to write it as excellently as you used to. Some people are good at making the perfect loops and curls, while some are bad. I am still terrible at it.Cursive is hardly used by kids anymore as even adults don 't write in this style, unless they are using it for theirsignature. Learning this handwriting was a usual practice in school for several decades. However, in 2011, the Indiana Department of Education made it optional (可选择的)for schools to teach cursive writing to the students. In fact, there were 46 more states who have done the same.There are some who believe that it is high time for cursive to retire from school curriculum. After all, if we don ’ t leave the past behind, we cannot make way for new things. If you walk into any classroom, you would find children using keyboards to communicate in written form. On the other hand, fans of this cursive insist on its usefulness. They remind us that if we stop teaching and learning cursive in schools, very soon most of our historical documents will become hard to us.Where do we stand on this subject Is it the right time to erase an almost forgotten handwriting and live in the keyboarding world? Or can we do both without compromising (妥协)on our school curriculum? Let me know your thoughts on this matter by leaving a comment in the section below.32.People use cursive when they______________.A. give their signatureB. are in IndianaC. grow up as adultsD. are at school33,In Indiana school, children _________.A. must learn cursiveB. are interested in cursiveC. can choose to learn cursiveD. learn cursive everyday34.It can be inferred that the author _______________.A. prefers to learn cursiveB. is a cursive teacherC. welcomes people to show their opinionsD. is a very famous expert in education35. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Is Cursive Writing NecessaryB. Is Keyboarding World GoodC. A Keyboarding WorldD.

Here are some findings and expert advice.1. How many times did you brush your teeth yesterday?·Finding：A full 33% of seniors brush their teeth only once a day.·Step：Remove the 300 types of bacteria in your mouth eachmorning with a battery-operated toothbrush. Brush gently for 2 minutes, at least twice a day.2. How many times did you wash your hands or bathe yesterday?·Finding：Seniors, on average, bathe fewer than 3 days a week. And nearly 30%wash their hands only 4 times a day-half of the number doctors recommend.·Step：We touch our faces around 3,000 times a day-often inviting germs（病菌）to enter our mouth, nose, and eyes. Use toilet paper to avoid touching the door handle. And, most important, wash your hands often with hot running water and soap for 20 seconds.3. How often do you think about fighting germs?·Finding：Seniors are not fighting germs as well as they should.·Step：Be aware of germs. Do you know it is not your toilet but your kitchen sponge（海绵）that can carry more germs than anything else? T o kill these germs, keep your sponge in the microwave for 10 seconds.56. What is found out American seniors?A. Most of then have good habits.B. Nearly 30%of then bathe three days a week.C. All of then are fighting germs better than expected.D. About one third of them brush their teeth only once a day57. Doctors suggest that people should wash their hands .A. twice a dayB. three times a dayC. four times a dayD. eight times a day58. Which of the following is true according to the text?A. We should keep from touching our faces.B. There are less than 300 types of bacteria in the mouth.C．A kitchen sponge can carry more germs than a toilet.D. We should wash our hands before touching a door handle.59. The text probably comes from .A. a guide bookB. a popular magazineC. a book review D .an official documentBUsing too much water or throwing rubbish into our rivers are clear ways that humans can put our water supply in danger, but we also affect our water supply in less obvious ways .You may wonder how paving(铺砌) a road can lead to less useable fresh water . A major part of the water we use every day is groundwater. Groundwater does not come from lakes or rivers. It comes from underground. The more roads and parking lots we pave, the less water can flow into the ground to become groundwater .Human activity is not responsible for all water shortages(短缺). Driver climates are of course more likely to have droughts(干旱) than areas with more rainfall ,but in any case, good management can help to make sure there is enough water to meet our basic needs .Thinking about the way we use water every day can make a big difference ,too In the United States, a family of four can use 1.5tons of water a day ! This shows how much we depend on water to live ,but there?s a lot we can do to lower the number .You can take steps to save water in your home .To start with, use the same glass for your drinking water all day. Wash it only once a day .Run your dishwasher (洗碗机)only when it is full. Helpyour parents fix any leaks in your home. You can even help to keep our water supply clean by recycling batteries instead of throwing them away.60. Which of the following is most likely to lead to less groundwater?A. Using river water. B .Throwing batteries away.C. paving parking lots.D. Throwing rubbish into lakes.61. What can be inferred from the text?A. All water shortages are due to human behavior.B. It takes a lot of effort to meet our water needs.C. There is much we can do to reduce family size.D. The average family in America makes proper use of water.62. The last paragraph is intended to .A. show us how to fix leaks at homeB. tell us how to run a dishwasherC. prove what drinking glass is best for usD. suggest what we do to save water at home63. The text is mainly about .A. Why paving roads reduces our waterB. how much we depend on water to liveC. why droughts occur more in dry climatesD. how human activity affects our water supplyCWhen 19-year-old Sophia Giorgi said she was thinking of volunteering to help the Make-A-Wish Foundation (基金会)，nobody understood what she was talking about .But Sophia knew just how important Make– A–Wish could be because this special organization had helped to make a dream come true for one her best friends .We were interested in finding out more, sowe went along to meet Sophia listen to what she had to say .Sophia told us that Make – A –Wish is a worldwide organization that started in the United States in 1980. “It?s a charity(慈善机构)that helps children who have got very serious illnesses. Make–A–Wish help children feel happy even though they are sick, by making their wishes and dreams come true,” Sophia explained .We asked Sophia how Make– A–Wish had first started .She said it had all begun with a very sick young boy called Chris, who had been dreaming for a long time of becoming a policeman. Sophia said lots of people had wanted to find a way to make Chris?s dream come tru e—so, with everybody?s help, Chris, only seven years old at the time ,had been a “policeman” for a day .” when people saw how delig hted Chris was when his dream came true, they decided to try and help other sick children too ,and that was the beginning of Make–A–Wish,” explained Sophia Sophia also told us the Foundation tries to give children and their families a special, happy time. A Make–A–Wish volunteer visits the families and asks the children what they would wish for if they could have anything in the world. Sophia said the volunteers were important because they were the ones who helped to make the wishes come true. They do this either by providing things that are necessary, or by raising money or helping out in whatever way they can.64. Sophia found out about Make– A–Wish because her best friend had.A. benefited from itB. volunteered to help itC. dreamed about itD. told the author about it65. According to Sophia, Make-A-Wish .A. is an international charityB. was understood by nobody at firstC. raises money for very poor familiesD. started by drawing the interest of the public66. What is said about Chris in Paragraph3?A. He has been a policeman since he was seven.B. He gave people the idea of starting Make– A–WishC. He wanted people to help make his dream come true.D. He was the first child Make– A–Wish helped after it had been set up.67. Which of the following is true about Make–A–Wish volunteers?A. They are important for making wishes come true.B. They try to help children get over their illnesses.C. They visit sick children to make them feel special.D. They provide what is necessary to make Make– A–Wish popular.D“People are ruder today because they are rushed and more …time poor? than ever before,” says Patsy Rowe, “Manners have fallen off the radar(雷达).”Due to our strong attraction to electronic equipment it is a wond er more people don?t wake up each morning and greet the singing birds with a complaint（抱怨）about thenoise. Here are some examples of rudeness.Some people prefer to do almost everything over the internet. To them, dealing with an actual human is like an evolutionary step backward. It feels very slow because humans don?t work at 4G speeds. When you have dinner with friends, youwill often notice someone paying more attention to his mobile phone. We have programmed ourselves to think that every new message brings life-changing news, so taking calls and checking our texts are more important than talking to the people we are with. What is worse, some people even tend to send anonymous （匿名的）rude messages by email.However, rudeness is never acceptable, Don?t assume it is OK to be rude if the person you?re in touch with won?t recognize you. If you have something awful to say, have the courage to face the person and say it, write a letter or email and sign it, or forget it. Upsetting people with unsigned messages is cruel and disgusting.We shouldn?t blame technology for our shortcomings. Technology is here to help us, but we should not allow it to take over our lives. An important step is acknowledging our shortcomings. People spend a lot of time pointing out bad manners but it would be even more help if we?d publicly acknowledge good manners when we see them.68. What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in Paragraph I?A. People can tell good from bad behavior.B. Radar is able to observe human behavior.C. People care little about their behavior.D. Radar can be used to predict human behavior.69. Some people are less willing to deal with humans becauseA. they are becoming less patientB. they are growing too independentC. they have to handle many important messagesD. they have to follow an evolutionary step backward.70. The author thinks sending unsigned awful messages isA. RidiculousB. disgustingC. acceptableD. reasonable71. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. We should applaud good behavior.B. Technology can never be blamedC. We should keep pointing out mistakes.D. Technology will take over lives one day.EArgentina in the late nineteenth century was an exciting place. Around 1870, it was experiencing an economic(经济的)boom, and the capital, Buenos Aires, attracted many people. Farmers, as well as a flood of foreigners from Spain and Italy, came to Buenos Aires seeking jobs. These jobs didn?t pay well, and the people felt lonely and disappointed with their new life in the city. As the unhappy newcomers mixed together in the poor parts of the city, the dance known an the tango(探戈舞)came into beingAt the beginning the tango was a dance of the lower classes. It was danced in the bars and streets. At that time there many fewer women the men, so if a man didn?t want to be left out, his only choice was to dance with another man so that he could attract the attention of the few available women. Gradually, the dance spread into the upper classes of Argentinean society and became more respectable.In Europe at this time, strong interest in dance from around the world was beginning. This interest in international dance was especially evident in Paris. Every kind of dance from ballet(芭蕾舞)to belly dancing could be found on the stages of the Paris theaters of the Paris theaters. After tango dances from Argentina arrive in Europe, they began to draw the interest of the public an they performed their exiting dance in cafes, Though not everyone approved of the new dance, saying it was a little too shocking, the dance did find enough supporters to make it popular.The popularity（流行）Of the tango continued to grow in many other parts of the world. Soldiers who returned to the United States from World War I brought the tango to North America, It reached Japan in 1926, and in 2003 the Argentinean embassy in Seoul hired a local tango dancer to act an a kind of dance ambassador, and promote tango dancing throughout South Korea.72. The origin of the tango is associated withA Belly dances B. American soldiers C. Spanish city D. the capital of Argentina73. Which of the following is true about the tango?A. It was created by foreigners from Spain and Italy.B. People of the upper classes loved the tango mostC. It was often danced by two male in the beginningD.A dancer in Seoul became the Argentinean ambassador.74. Before World War I, the tango spread toA. AmericaB. JapanC. FranceD. South Korea75What can be the best title for the text?A. How to Dance the TangoB. The History of the TangoC. How to Promote the TangoD. The Modern Tango Boom第四部分写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节任务型读写（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）Aristotle once wrote that “happiness is a state of activity”. In other words, whether you?re seeking life-long satisfaction or a few moments of good cheer, you?ve got to move forward. We?ve interviewed the experts and found five steps to take toward a sunny mood（心情）.Over a 30-year period, University of Illinois researchers asked nearly 120,000 people how income, education, political participation, volunteer activities and close relationships affected their happiness. Reported Newsweek?s Sharon Begley on the findings, “The highest levels of happiness are found with the most stable and satisfying relationships.”Singing aloud, talking to a stranger, raising your hand: all may increase a feeling of happiness, according to a study from Wake Forest University. Participants（参与者）followed the development of their moods for two weeks and reported feeling happier when they were more outgoing and less happy when reserved or withdrawn. The editors of /doc/589938490.html, gave $5 or $20 to 46 strangers by chance. Half the group was told to spend the money on themselves, while the other half was told to spend it on others. Those who?d shared the wealth felt much happier at the end of the day than those who?d spent it on themselves. There was no difference in happiness between those who spent $5 or $20, suggesting that it?s not how much money you spend, but how you spend it, that inspires the spirit.Studies from the Positive Psychology Center showed thatdiscouraged people who wrote down three good things that happened to them each day for six months reported an improved attitude.Drinking water really can help keep you cheerful. A small 2012 study from the University of Connecticut suggested that even slight dehydration（脱水）affected the moods of its female participants.Title 76. for HappinessIntroduction You?ll move 77. in the course of finding happiness.The findings of 78.Some 79. toward happiness·Value your relationships The 80. happiness lies in the most stable andsatisfying relationships.· 81. yourself You can gain happiness by singing aloud or talking to others. · Spend money on others Your spirit will be inspired by 82. the wealth. · 83. on the positive Your attitude will be improved when you fix your attentionon good things.· Drink water If a woman takes in enough water, her 84. ofhappiness may remain.Conclusion Happiness can be found if all 85. have been done.第二节书面表达（满分25分）假设你校英语社团举办以“讲求文明，从我做起”为主题的征文活动，请你以“On the Way to School”为题，写一篇英语短文。

With a gradual 38 to twelve to fourteen hours for toddlers(初学走路的孩子) one to three; eleven to thirteen hours for 39 three to five; and ten to eleven hours for schoolchildren 40 five to ten.But things get really 41 at adolescence(青春期). Not only do teenagers need more sleep than 42 －eight and a half to nine and a quarter hours a night, according to the sleep foundation－but the times 43 which they get sleepy and are able to awaken 44 and feel rested shift in a 45 that does not match to the 46 times at most schools.Sleep studies have shown that the typical teenager does not fall asleep readily before 11 p.m. or later. 47 . many have to get up by 6 a.m. or 48 to get to school for a class 49 starts at 7:30 or 8 a.m. More than a few 50 off during that class, and often the 51 one as well. Even if awake, they’re in no condition to learn much of anything.In one study, more than 90 percent of teenagers 52 they slept less than the 53 nine hours a night, and 10 percent said they slept less than six hours. 54 James B.

Maybe it’s time to rediscover the comfort of train travel.Anyone who’s backpacked with a Eurail pass(欧洲火车通票)in the latter half of the 20th century will remember the long queues for tickets, unreliable timetables and slow cross-country trains. How things have changed. Now, you can book tickets online—Google “Rail Europe”and find the best site for your area—and pay in your local currency.And that’s merely the beginning of the new conveniences. The Eurostar (the railway service between London and France or Belgium, using the tunnel under the English Channel)is popular with V ogue editor Anna Wintour, who no doubt enjoys the convenience of landing dead in the centre of each capital—removing travel time to and from airports, as well as very long check-ins. With Eurostar, just arrive 15 minutes before your train leaves and all will be well.There are a growing number of new-generation Euro trains that cross some of the prettiest countryside on the planet—a fact that won’t be lost even while you’re moving along at 300km/h.The other brilliant aspect of Euro train travel is that there are no baggage restrictions(限制). Sure, there are cheap air tickets available, but if you want to carry more than 20 kg, watch the price increase with the extra baggage charges.Sitting back and watching the beautiful views roll by is holiday-making in itself, which opposed to speeding down the motorway in Italy, being beeped(按汽车喇叭)at by angry Italians for paying attention to the speed limit.And for the environmentally minded, consider this: the carbon footprint(the total amount of greenhouse gases produced to directly and indirectly support human activities)of train travel is tiny compared to air. You can walk around lightly.56、V ogue editor Anna Wintour chooses the Eurostar because .A．it saves her a lot of moneyB．it carries her exactly to the city centreC．it greatly reduces her carbon footprintD．she can carry more than 20 kg of baggage57、The author thinks that booking tickets online is .A．impractical B．cheap C．convenient D．unsafe58、The purpose of the passage is to .A．promote Euro train travelB．criticize airport’s poor serviceC．introduce beautiful views in EuropeD．describe the great changes in Europe59、What’s the author’s attitude towards traveling on motorways?A．It’s pleasant B．It’s tiringC．It’s often upsetting D．it’s environmentally friendlyBWhen you are little, the whole world feels like a big playground. I was living in Conyers, Georgia the summer it all happened. I was a second grader, but my best friend Stephanie was only in the first grade. Both of our parents were at work and most of the time they let us go our own way.It was a hot afternoon and we decided to have an adventure in Stephanie’s basement. As I opened the basement door, before us lay the biggest room, full of amazing things like guns, dolls, and old clothes. I ran downstairs, and spotted a red steel can. It was paint. I looked beyond it and there lay even more paint in bright colors like purple, orange, blue and green.“Stephanie, I just found us a project for the day. Get some paintbrushes. We are fixing to paint.” She screamed with excitement as I told her of my secret plans and immediately we got to work. We gathered all the brushes we could find and moved all of our materials to my yard. There on the road in front of my house, we painted big stripes (条纹) of colors across the pavement (人行道). Stripe by stripe, our colors turned into a beautiful rainbow. It was fantastic!The sun was starting to sink. I saw a car in the distance and jumped up as I recognize the car. It was my mother. I couldn’t wait to show her my masterpiece. The car pulled slowly into the driveway and from the look on my mother’s face, I could tell that I was in deep trouble.My mother shut the car door and walked towards me. Her eyes glaring, she shouted, “What in the world were you thinking? I understood when you made castles out of leaves, and climbed the neighbors’ trees, but this! Come inside right now!” I stood there glaring back at her for a minute, angry because she had insulted (侮辱) my art.“Now go clean it up!” Mother and I began cleaning the road. Tears ran down my cheeks as I saw my beautiful rainbow turn into black cement.Though years have now passed, I still wonder where my rainbow has gone. I wonder if, maybe when I get older, I can find my rainbow and never have to brush it away. I guess we all need some sort of rainbow to brighten our lives from time to time and to keep our hopes and dreams colorful.60、What did the writer want to do when his mother came home?A．To prevent her from seeing his painting.B．To introduce Stephanie to her.C．To show his artwork to her.D．To put the materials back in the yard.61、In his mother’s eyes, the writer .A．always caused trouble.

While Japan is seen as a getting-to-know-you stop, when Obama heads to the Singapore for the APEC meeting, he will likely face pressure on trade. “Many Asians are concerned about what US trade policy will be, and they’ve been somewhat alarmed by the fact that the president really hasn’t set out very much re vision for what US trade policy is in his administration.”But the critical leg of the trip will come in China, his third stop where Obama will have to navigate the complex relationship with the country that is the largest holder of US debt. “As you say, y ou know, if you owe the bank one dollar, it’s your problem, if you owe the bank, you know, 3 million dollars, it’s the bank’s problem, so it’s similar with China. I mean they have no interest in trying to use the influence with us, because eventually, they’re the one that they own all those dollars.”Also on the table will be North Korea and Iran’s nuclear ambitions as well as cooperation on Afghanistan.With Obama enjoying sky high popularity level in the countries he is visiting, detailed results may be beside the point, given that Obama is still in his first year in office, analysts say this trip is mostly about laying the ground work for the future.68、From the second paragraph, we can infer that .A．Japan has not been the closest friend of AmericaB．Japan and Singapore will give America some pressure on tradeC．Japan is concerned about what US trade policy will beD．Japan decides not to rely on America too much69、The word“leg”in the third paragraph probably means .A．one of the parts of a football match that is played in two halvesB．the two long parts of your body that your feet are joined toC．one of the upright parts that supports a piece of furnitureD．a part of a long journey or process that is done one part at a time70、What can you infer about China’s relation with America in the third paragraph?A．China will sell all its shares in US national debt.B．It will hurt China if the value of the dollar falls.C．China will not be the largest debt holder of US.D．China is US’ s overseas bank where US can borrow money.71、The author develops the passage mainly .A．by examples B．by cause and effectC．by comparison D．by order in timeELet’s face it. No one drinks diet soda for the taste. People dr ink diet soda in the hope that it will help them lose weight or at least keep them from gaining it. Yet it seems to have exactly the opposite effect, according to a new study.Researchers from the University of Texas said those who drank two or more diet sodas a day had waist size increases that were six times greater than those of people who didn’t drink diet soda. “What we saw was that the more diet sodas a person drinks, the more weight they were likely to gain,” said Sharon Fowler.The study was based on data from 474 participants in a larger, ongoing research project, where the participants were followed for nearly 10 years.While the findings were surprising, they also offer some explanations.Nutrition expert, Melanie Rogers, who works with overweight patients in New York, has found that when patients are switched from regular to diet soda, they don’t lose weight at all. “We weren’t seeing weight loss necessarily, and that was confusing to us,” said Rogers.So why would diet soda cause weight gain? No one knows for sure yet, but it could be that people think they can eat more if they drink diet soda, and so over-compensate for the missing calories.A related study found some sweeteners（甜味剂）raised blood sugar levels in some mice. “Data from this and other potential studies suggest that the promotion of diet sodas and artificial sweeteners may be risky,” said study researcher Helen P. Hazuda, professor at the University of Texas’s school of medicine. “They” may be free of calories, but not of consequences.”72、People drink diet soda to ________.A．stay in fashion B．enjoy its tasteC．gain more energy D．achieve weight loss73、The new study suggests that drinking diet soda ________.A．helps people to be healthier B．cause people to become heavierC．offers people more calories D．makes people much thinner74、We can learn from the passage that ________.A．diet soda drinkers tend to eat more foodB．regular soda makes people lose more weightC．most blood diseases come from diet sodaD．diet soda does help reduce calories75、The underlined word “They” in the last paragraph probably refers to ________.A．diet sodas and artificial sweeteners B．sweetenersC．diet soda drinkers and sweetener takers D．sodas第II卷（非选择题共35分）第四部分写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节：任务型读写（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，根据所读内容在表格中的空白处填入恰当的单词。

However, we weren’t really sure what to expect.Therefore, we expected him to develop at his own pace, with a lot of help and encouragement, but only to develop little. We decided that we saw progress we could never give up. Very early on, we knew in our hearts that we had to have high expectations, but how high? We could not set goals for him that he could not ever possibly reach. , if we did not have high hopes, the chances would be very slim for him to work to his potential. When Joshua was four and a half years old, his younger sister, CJ, was three and attended the same preschool in a younger class.

You see, I had no expectation that Joshua would win; it was for me to know that he was able to draw a picture and have it with those of the other children.Well, when I returned to the kids, you can image my when I discovered that Joshua was the winner from his class! Proud and excited, he told everyone, “I won the contest!

The first smart phones enabled the users to send and receive emails. Later models added the function of portable media players, pocket video cameras, and GPS navigation (导航) units to form one multi-use device. Many modern smart phones also include touchscreens and web browsers (浏览器) that display web pages.A recent report says we spend an average of two hours and 40 minutes each day looking at a smart phone. That doesn’t mean making calls, but playing phone games and browsing the Web.Nowadays we always find people checking emails in a restaurant, taking a picture of the food when it arrives, or checking a message during a co nversation instead of traditional communication. It’s no secret that our lives are being affected by our smart phones obsession.However, this phenomenon has never been presented so vividly as in the short YouTube film I Forgot My Phone. Despite only being online for a few days, it's already been viewed more than 10.5 million times. Whether it will be screened in the cinema remains to be seen.Ironically, YouTube’s data show that the site gets a billion views per day from mobile devices, so a lot of those people watched it on their phones.The short film, written by and starring actress Charlene Deguzman, shows groups of people in various social situations, the majority of whom are absorbed in their phones instead of the world around them. To a certain extent, we all do it.【1】People prefer a smart phone to a common one, because the latter only can help us ______.A．check emails B．send messages C．find the destination D．watch a video【2】The underlined word “obsession” in the third paragraph most probably means “______”.A．devotion B．contribution C．addiction D．emotion【3】Which of the following is right?A．People spend as average of two hours and 40 minutes each day using smart phones.B．The film hasn’t been put on in the cinema.C．The film is written by an actor named Charlene Deguzman.D．The film has already been viewed more than 105 million times in the first few days.【4】When the writer mentions the number of people watching the film from mobile devices in the fifth paragraph, he mainly feels ______.A．encouraged B．depressed C．proud D．satisfied2.Some people succeed in unbelievable ways.Roussel was orphaned at the age of eight and went to live with his grandfather. He built on the music he had learned from his mother, entertaining himself by reading through the family music collection and playing his favorite songs on the piano.Three years later, Roussel’s grandfath er died, and his aunt adopted him. Her husband arranged for young Albert to take regular piano lessons. Summer vacations at a Belgian seaside resort added a second love to his life -- the sea. He studied to be a naval cadet (海军学员), but still made time to study music.In the French Navy, while he served on a warship based at Cherbourg, he and two friends found the time to play the music of Beethoven and other composes (作曲家). Roussel also began composing. At the Church of the Trinity in Cherbourg on Christmas Day 1892, he had his first performance as a composer.That success encouraged Roussel to write a wedding march, and one of his fellow offices offered to show it to a well-known conductor (指挥家), Edouard Colonne. When Roussel’s friend returned with the manu script (手稿), he reported that Colonne had advised Roussel to give up his naval career and devote his life to music.Not long afterwards, at the age of 25, Roussel did just that. He applied characters that he had developed in the navy to his composing and b ecame a major force in twentieth century French music. As for Eduoard Colonne’s inspiring advice that Roussel devote his life to music, Roussel's navy friend later admitted that he had made it up and that he had never even shown Roussel's manuscript to the conductor.【1】Which of the following shows the right order of the story?a.

Sponsorship rights (冠名权) for the show's second season were sold for 312 million yuan (about $ 50 million), more than ten times higher than the rights to the first season.What accounts for its popularity? The show features a new generation of Chinese fathers, who, as part of the country’s new middle class, have faced more problems with modern child-raising techniques such as taking an active role with their children.Part of the appeal of the show is the chance to throw a glance at the lives of Chinese celebrities (名流) and their children. Audiences are interested in watching the failed attempts of celebrity dads making dinner, doing hair,and disciplining (管教) children -- tasks often left to mothers in a society still influenced by t he saying that “men rule outside and women are inside.” “In traditional Chinese culture, fathers are strict and mothers are kind. But on the show, we see fathers who are much gentler on their kids and more involved in their upbringing, ” said Li Minyi, an associate professor. “This show raises an important question for modern Chinese society -- what is the role of fathers in today’s China?”After each episode (集) goes to air, the Chinese internet explodes with comments on each celebrity's parentingstyle.Actor Guo Tao tries to communicate with his son, Shitou, but is seen as a more traditional Chinese father, and has been criticised online for being too harsh. Zhang Liang, a supermodel, is an audience favorite for treating his son, Tiantian, more like a fri end. The show’s most famous celebrity, Lin Zhiying, a film star, was originally praised as patient with his son Kimi. But as the season progresses, fans begin to criticise him for raising a spoiled, undisciplined boy. Director Wang Yuelun is at a complete loss when it comes to care of his daughter’s hair.Even the People's Daily is pleased with the success of the show.【1】Sponsorship rights for the show’s first season were sold for about______.A．312 million yuan B．50 million yuanC．31 million yuan D．600 million yuan【2】According to the passage, the show______.A．gives audiences the chance to raise the star's children themselvesB．invites some famous film stars to take part in itC．lets people think about the role of fathers in modern familiesD．raises people's concern about women's role in the society【3】The underlined word “harsh" in the fifth paragraph most probably means “______”.A．careless B．strict C．clumsy D．kind【4】According to the writer, ______is the most successful father.A．Guo Tao B．Zhang Liang C．Lin Zhiying D．Wang Yuelun5.A new study has found evidence of aggressive (攻击性的) behavior in children who drink four or more servings of soft drinks every day. Information for the study came from the mothers of 3,000 5-year-olds. Researchers asked the women to keep a record of how many servings of soft drinks their children drank over a two-month period. They were also asked to complete a checklist of their children’s behavior.The researchers have found that 43 percent of the children drink at least one daily serving of soda, and 4 percent of the youngsters have even four or more sodas to drink every day.Shakira Suglia, a famous expert, says they’ve found that children who drink the most soda are more than twice as likely as those who drink no soda to show signs of aggression.“For the children who consume four or more soft drinks per day, we see more withdrawn behaviors, which make them hard to get along well with others.”The aggressive behaviors include destroying possessions belonging to others, taking part in fights and physically attacking people.The researchers have determined the link after considering factors like the child’s age and sex. They have also considered other possible influence, such as whether the boys and girls are eating sweets or giving fruit drinks on a normal day. In addition, the researchers have examined parenting styles and other social conditions that may be taking place in the home.Researches are trying to find why young children who drink a lot of soda have behavior problems. An ingredient often found in soft drinks is caffeine, which helps to make people feel energetic. Doctor Suglia suggests that caffeine could cause the 5-year-olds to be more aggressive. Earlier studies of adults have found the highest sugar levels in those who carry weapons (武器) and show signs of negative social behavior.【1】What section of a newspaper is the passage probably taken from?A．Scientific Technology B．Science FictionsC．Social News D．Health Report【2】The underlined word “withdrawn” in paragraph 4 can probably be replaced by the word ______. A．backward B．unsocial C．generous D．friendly【3】Researchers studied the following aspects of the children except ______.A．age B．sex C．games D．parents【4】According to the research, which of the following is right?A．Mothers were asked to keep a record of how many servings of soft drinks their children drank over a three-month period.B．4 percent of the youngsters have even four or fewer sodas to drink every day.C．Children who drink no soda show fewer aggressive behaviors.D．Children with the highest sugar levels tend to carry weapons and show signs of negative social behavior.【5】After a further study on ingredients in soda, Shakira Suglia implies that the direct cause of the aggressive behaviors may be ______.A．soft drinks B．attention problemsC．caffeine D．social conditions四、其他认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。
