一、阅读理解(共8小题，每小题2.5分，满分20分)AWe do it from the worldly comfort of our bedrooms and offices and to observe a special occasion, like a beach vacation or the high school party. Lt has its own spot in the dictionary, right next to "selfhood" and "selfish." And this year it earned its place as the Oxford English Dictionary's 2013 Word of the Year. The selfie has taken over our culture - and our smartphones.The rise of the selfie has become universal - between presidents, celebrities (名人) and citizens alike - and the trend is only continuing to grow. A recent survey conducted by the Pew Internet & American Life Project found that 54 percent of Internet users have posted original photos online. And of those hundreds of millions of photos, many are of the self- descriptive variety. For example, currently there are nearly 62 million selfie photos on a social media tool that has significantly contributed to the personal portrait's popularity. That figure, which continues to rise every day, doesn't even begin to include the selfies shared on other social media.Despite its dictionary definition, which describes the selfie as "a photograph taken of oneself, typically with a smartphone or webcam and uploaded to a social media website," the first mention of the word can be traced back to an Australian online forum from 2002 -long before the days of the iPhone's front-facing cameras and the popularity of social media. Still, what distinguishes a selfie from a self-portrait may be the medium and, potentially, the socially-driven distribution method. What makes the selfie so fascinating - and why do we feel pressed to take one? According to Dr. Pamela Rutledge, the desire to take, post and get "1ikes" on selfies goes back to a biological behavior all humans are linked to."I think it influences our sense of social connection in the same way as it does when you go to a party and people say 60h I love your dress,"' Rutledge said. "Biological, social recognition is a real need and there is even an area of the brain that is devoted to social activity."1. What does the underlined word '6lt" in paragraph I probably refer to?A. Word of the year.B. A special occasion.C. Our culture.D. The selfie.2. What's the main idea of Paragraph 2?A. The trend of the Internet.B. The figures of posted photos.C. The boom of the selfie.D. The popularity of social media.3. Why can't we help but selfie?A. Because we hope to satisfy our biological and social needs.B. Because the Internet makes it convenient to upload the selfies.C. Because we want to get likes for our photography technique.D. Because it has taken over our life since its origin in Australia.BSelfie is a photograph taken of oneself, typically with a smartphone or webcam(网络摄像头) and uploaded to a social media website.In the digital age, selfies have taken off in a way that no one could have predicted. The art of the selfie is one that lots of people have practiced and perfected in recent years. A recent studyshows 91 percent of teens have posted a photo of themselves online. Some celebrities (名人) are regular selfie posters, too. It seems that selfies are more than just a trend. They are here to stay.Why are selfies so popular? The appeal of selfies comes from how easy they are to create and share. And posting selfies is popular for another reason: you can control your own image. “I like having the power to choose how I look,” admits Samantha, a 19-year-old from Missouri, “even if I’m making a face.”Actually, the most common selfie is the one where you look cute, partly because it’s a quick way to get positive comments about your appearance. “If I feel pretty, I take one,”says Andrew, a 23-year-old girl from Maryland, “when other people Like(点赞) it, it’s a mini boost of confidence.”Sure, showing off a new coat or that you’re at a cool event is fun, but can be a trap to fall in. there’s a danger that your self-respect may start to be tied to the comments and Likes you get when you post a selfie, and they aren’t based on who you are---they are based on what you look like. Seeking validation(认可) is totally normal, and it’s a healthy way for teenagers to develop their identity. But with social networks, where it’s easy to get quick approval almost constantly, the selfie thing can quickly go out of control. It may even start to feel like an addiction: when you get a “LIKE”, you’re up. But when you get nothing, your confidence can decrease quickly.Overall, opinions vary on selfie culture. It’s up to you to shape the future of the habit. Ask yourself: are my selfies for fun, or do I need the comments? If you belong to the latter, it’s recommended that you change your view. That could mean cutting selfies out entirely or just cutting down and making them more fun. So maybe you like to travel, or read or dance, or create crazy 3-D nail art…post them! Take it from us: it’s so much more interesting.4. According to the passage, selfie is a type of ______.A. photoB. smartphoneC. webcamD. website5. By saying “They are here to stay”, the writer believes ______.A. celebrities will continue to post selfiesB. selfies are taking root in people’s lifeC. people will be addicted to posting selfiesD. selfies have raised wide public concern6. People enjoy posting selfies partly because ______.A. it is a way to show off their high-techniqueB. celebrities have set good examples to themC. they can control how they present themselvesD. selfies are followed by comments and likes7. Paragraph 4 mainly talks about ______ of posting selfies online.A. the negative effectsB. the growing trendC. the dangerous exampleD. the possible causes8. The writer may think it better for people to selfie for ______.A. confidenceB. popularityC. commentD. pleasure二、七选五(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分)It’s time to head off to college, and you’re getting ready to finally leave the nest.

It is about an hour away from her future school, the University of Miami. “I know that my parents are going to give me my space so that I can have the full college experience. I plan to join them on breaks, but I will spend my weekends on campus doing activities.” Marks said.At the end of the day, it’s up to each family to decide how to best handle the separation that comes with graduation. ___5___ Whichever way a family chooses to handle the separation, there are always lots of ways to make it work for both students and parents.A. But not all students are against the idea.B. It’s Mom and Dad---they’re moving with you to college!C. A big factor(要素) of college is being on your own for the first time.D.

And posting selfies is popular for another reason: you can control your own image. “I like having the power to choose how I look,” admits Samantha, a 19-year-old from Missouri, “even if I’m making a face.”Actually, the most common selfie is the one where you look cute, partly because it’s a quick way to get positive comments about your appearance. “If I feel pretty, I take one,”says Andrew, a 23-year-old girl from Maryland, “when other people Like(点赞) it, it’s a mini boost of confidence.”Sure, showing off a new coat or that you’re at a cool event is fun, but can be a trap to fall in. there’s a danger that your self-respect may start to be tied to the comments and Likes you get when you post a selfie, and they aren’t based on who you are---they are based on what you look like. Seeking validation(认可) is totally normal, and it’s a healthy way for teenagers to develop their identity. But with social networks, where it’s easy to get quick approval almost constantly, the selfie thing can quickly go out of control. It may even start to feel like an addiction: when you get a “LIKE”, you’re up. But when you get nothing, your confidence can decrease quickly.Overall, opinions vary on selfie culture. It’s up to you to shape the future of the habit. Ask yourself: are my selfies for fun, or do I need the comments? If you belong to the latter, it’s recommended that you change your view. That could mean cutting selfies out entirely or just cutting down and making them more fun. So maybe you like to travel, or read or dance, or create crazy 3-D nail art…post them! Take it from us: it’s so much more interesting.4. According to the passage, selfie is a type of ______.A. photoB. smartphoneC. webcamD. website5. By saying “They are here to stay”, the writer believes ______.A. celebrities will continue to post selfiesB. selfies are taking root in people’s lifeC. people will be addicted to posting selfiesD. selfies have raised wide public concern6. People enjoy posting selfies partly because ______.A. it is a way to show off their high-techniqueB. celebrities have set good examples to themC. they can control how they present themselvesD. selfies are followed by comments and likes7. Paragraph 4 mainly talks about ______ of posting selfies online.A. the negative effectsB. the growing trendC. the dangerous exampleD. the possible causes8. The writer may think it better for people to selfie for ______.A. confidenceB. popularityC. commentD. pleasure二、七选五(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分)It’s time to head off to college, and you’re getting ready to finally leave the nest.

高考题型提能练(九)Unit 9Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2016·河南省普通高中毕业班适应性测试)Is geography important? Here's a question for you to answer.What have the following countries got in common：Australia，Japan，the United Kingdom，Iceland and Madagascar？Quite easy if you can picture them on the globe — they are all islands。

All of these nations are surrounded by sea。

What have these five nations got in common？Hungary, Botswana，Kazakhstan, Paraguay and Liechtenstein。

They are all landlocked。

In other words，in contrast to the first five countries whose coastline forms their border, the second five have no coastline at all。

If you are a Hungarian or a Paraguayan，you have to pass through somebody else’s country if you want to go to the beach.Liechtenstein is even more of a geographical phenomenon; it is “doubly landlocked” because the countries that surround it - Austria and Switzerland are also landlocked。

AFrancis Scott Key Fitzgerald was born on September 24, 1896. He was an American writer of novels and short stories, whose works are the typical writings of the Jazz Age, a term he created himself.Born into an upper middle-class Irish Catholic family, Fitzgerald was named after his famous second cousin, Francis Scott Key. He was also named after his deceased sister Louise Scott, one of two sisters who died shortly before his birth. He spent 1898–1901 in Syracuse and 1903–1908 in Buffalo, New York, where he attended Nardin Academy. When his father was fired from his company, the family returned to Minnesota, where Fitzgerald attended St. Paul Academy from 1908 to1911.He is widely rega rded as one of the 20th century’s greatest writers. Fitzgerald is considered to be a member of the “Lost Generation〞 of the 1920s. He finished four novels, This Side of Paradise, The Beautiful and Damned, Tender Is the Night and his most famous classic novel, The Great Gatsby. A fifth, unfinished novel, The Love of the Last Tycoon was published after his death. Fitzgerald also wrote many short stories that dealt with themes of youth.His first literary work, a detective story, was published in a school newspaper when he was 12. When he was 16, he was forced to leave St. Paul Academy for neglecting his studies. He attended Newman School, a prep school in Hackensack, New Jersey, in 1911–1912, and entered Princeton University in 1913 as a member of the Class of 1917. There he became friends with future critics and writers Edmund Wilson (Class of 1916) and John Peale Bishop (Class of 1917), and wrote for the Princeton Triangle Club. He was also a member of the University Cottage Club, which still displays Fitzgerald’s desk and writing materials in its library. A poor student, Fitzgerald left Princeton to enlist(入伍) in the US Army during World War I; however, the war ended shortly after Fitzgerald’s enlistment.Fitzgerald had been an alcoholic (酒鬼) since his college days, leaving him in poor health by the late 1930s. Fitzgerald suffered a mild attack of tuberculosis in 1919, and died of a heart attack in 1940.21. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. Th e “Los t Generation〞 of the 1920s.B. How Fitzgerald got his name.C. The life and works of Fitzgerald.D. Fitzgerald and the Jazz Age.22. What led to Fitzgerald’s early death according to the passage?A. His poverty.B. His heavy drinking.C. The poor working conditions.D. The pressures of work.23. Which is the most famous work of Fitzgerald?A. This Side of Paradise.B. The Beautiful and Damned.C. Tender Is the Night.D. The Great Gatsby.24. What’s the right ord er of the events related to Fitzgerald?a. He attended Nardin Academy.b. He entered Princeton University.c. He attended St. Paul Academy.d. He joined the US Army during World War I.A. a,c,b,dB. a,d,b,cC. b,d,a,cD. b,a,c,dBAnyone who has experienced the joy of driving through a rainstorm with the sunroof (天窗) open understands how airflow around the moving vehicles can keep him dry despite the exposure. Now a similar principle is being employed to create an umbrella that protects people from the rain using nothing more than an invisible air force field.Air Umbrella, developed by a Chinese company and recently funded by Kickstarter, uses forced air rather than fabric to create a protective canopy that keeps people from getting wet in the rain.It’s a clever concept and designers have done a good job of answering several questions about the product. For instance, the sound generated by the device is minimal, especially when compared to the pitter-patter of the falling rain. It can create a protective canopy wide enough for two people to fit under and it performs well even in the heavy rain. The air shield (防护) can be cut through by high winds, but given that regular umbrellas typically fold over in similar windy conditions, the air umbrella is still an upgrade.A few concerns do remain, however. For instance, the battery life is only about 15-30 minutes depending on the model, so you’ll still want to walk briskly to your next destination when it’s raining. Also, while the air shield might keep the rai n away from you, it’s likely to splash all that blown-away water onto anyone else like a sprinkler (洒水车). So the device might draw the ire of anyone else walking with you, or any helpless bystanders.There are currently three different types to choose from if you’re interested in investing. Air Umbrella-A is the lightest model, and is apparently designed specifically for females, according to the Chinese developers. It is about 12 inches in length and weighs a little over a pound, and it runs for 15 minutes per charge. Air Umbrella-B measures nearly 20 inches long and weighs 1.7 pounds, and lasts 30 minutes per charge. Finally, Air Umbrella-C also lasts 30 minutes, but is scalable between 20 and 32 inches depending on your needs.25. Why does the author mention a special driving experience in the first paragraph?A. To introduce the topic of the passage.B. To explain the need for an umbrella.C. To share a feeling with the readers.D. To prove a theory to the readers.26. The Air Umbrella fails to work when ______.A. there is little rainB. there is no windC. it rains heavilyD. the wind is strong27. How does the author present concerns about the Air Umbrella?A. By giving figures.B. By giving examples.C. By making experiments.D. By making comparisons.28. The underlined word “ire〞 in the 4th paragraph probably means ______.A. attentionB. doubtC. curiosityD. angerCA company has just launched what it calls “the world’s first free standardized English test〞recently. Anyone can take the test for free. The new exam is called the EFSET, which is shortfor Education First Standardized English Test. The company, Education First, is known by theletters EF.It is estimated that there are two billion English language learners worldwide. Many of themare interested in attending an American college or university. To do so, foreign students needto take the Test of English as a Foreign Language —better known as TOEFL. However, many foreignersare not wealthy enough to take the TOEFL. In addition, test-takers often have to travel overnightto reach an official testing site. The World Bank says an average Cambodian worker earns onlyabout $1,000 per year. Approximately the cost of taking the TOEFL is 17.5 percent of the averageworker’s yearly wage.It is not just individuals who find the test pricey. Some governments also find it prohibitive.What’s more, not everyone needs official results from the TOEFL or IELTS — the InternationalEnglish Language Testing System. In the f uture, it’s likely that the government may use the EFSETto test millions of employees and students.Experts believe that the EFSET meets the highest value in language testing. It uses specialcomputer software that makes the questions easier or harder, d epending on one’s performance.The EFSET measures all the English learners’ levels while the IELTS and TOEFL only measure learners’ levels from moderate (中等的) to advanced. The EFSET is unique in the sense that itgives free online access to anyone interested in measuring their English level.There is a 50-minute and a two-hour version of the test, which its developers are calling theEFSET Plus. Both versions test only reading and listening skills. It’s hopeful that speakingand writing skills will be tested in the future. The IELTS and the TOEFL still use humans to ratethe speaking and writing sections. It’s a huge deal for students who are in areas where theycan’t get to the TOEFL or the IELTS. However, it is too early to know whether the EFSET resultsare acceptable for colleges and universities in America.29. Why do many foreign students take the TOEFL?A. To learn English well.B. To be admitted to key universities.C. To receive further education in America.D. To find good jobs and earn much money.30. What can we infer from Paragraph 2?A. Only wealthy people can take the TOEFL.B. The cost of taking the TOEFL is very high.C. There are many official testing sites for the TOEFL around the world.D. Few of the students in Cambodia can afford to take the TOEFL.31. What can we learn about the EFSET?A. It is similar to the TOEFL and the IELTS.B. Everybody with different English levels can take it for free.C. It tests the skills of reading, listening, writing and speaking.D. American universities accept the EFSET results for admission.32. What’s the best title for the passage?A. How to get ready for the EFSETB. Different ways to test English learners in the worldC. The new software developed by Education FirstD.

AOne day a lawyer’s wife fell ill, and he went to get a doctor. The doctor willingly came to see the woman and to do what he could for her, but before he went into the house, he made a short stop. He knew that the lawyer was famous for not paying his bills, even if they were due(正当的).He therefore said to the man.“But if I save your wife, I am afraid you may not pay me.”“Sir,” replied the lawyer.“Here I have＄500.Whether you cure my wife or you kill her, I'll give you all this.”The doctor was reassured(使安心) and went into the house. When he reached the woman's bedside, it soon became clear to him that he could do little. She was seriously ill, and though he prescribed(开药方) her medicine, she soon died.He told the lawyer he was very sorry, and then asked for the money which he had promised.“Did you kill my wife?” Asked the lawyer.“Of course I didn't.” said the doctor.“Well! Did you cure my wife?” asked the man.“I'm afraid that was impossible.” replied the doctor.“Well, then since you neither killed my wife nor cured her, I have nothing to pay you.”1.

It is important to remember that the body needs proper care in order to be healthy. There are three things that a person can do to help stay in good shape: eat right food, get enough sleep, and exercise regularly.Proper nutrition (营养) is important for good health. Your body cannot work well unless it receives the proper kind of“fuel”(燃料). Don't eat too much food with lots of sugar and fat. Eat plenty of foods high in protein, like meat, fish, eggs and nuts. Vegetables and fruits are very important because they provide necessary vitamins and minerals. However, don't overeat. It is not helpful to be overweight.Getting the proper amount of sleep is also important. If you don't get enough sleep, you will feel tired and easily get angry. You have no energy. Over a long period of time a little amount of sleep may even result in a change of personality (个性). Be sure to allow yourself from seven to nine hours of sleep each night. If you do, your body will feel strong and refreshed, and your mind will be sharp.Finally, get plenty of exercise. Exercise makes the body strong and and prevents you from putting on weight. It also improves your heart and lungs. If you follow a regular exercise program, you will probably increase your life-span (寿命). Any kind of exercise is good. Most sports are excellent for keeping the body in good shapes: basketball, swimming, bicycling, running and so on, are good examples. Sports are not only good for your body, but they are enjoyable and interesting, too.If everybody were to eat the right foods, get plenty of sleep and exercise regularly, the world would be a happier and healthier place. We would all live to be much older and wiser.5. In order to keep good health, ________.A. we should eat a lot of sweetsB. one needs a large amount of fatC. people should eat according to the foods nutritionD we must try to sleep now and then6. Eating more and sleeping less ________.A. can keep healthyB. are no good for youC. gets you more energyD. will keep your personality7. The title of the article should be ________.A. Eating and ExercisingB. How Vitamins Work in Man's BodyC. How to Stay HealthyD. Sleeping Well8. The passage is probably taken from ________.A. an advertisementB. a travel journalC. an English dictionaryD. a magazineCDo you always forget where you placed your keys or your purse? What was the name of the movie you saw last week? The major cause of your forgetfulness may be linked to what you store in your body, not in your short-term memory bank.Tests continue to show that people with enough Vitamin B-2 do well in memory exams. The "B" could stand for "brain", if you're one of many with limited instant recall. And the number one source of that vitamin is sunflower seeds.Even when you're sleeping or relaxing, your brain is still at work. Although it makes up just two percent of your total body weight, it uses up to 30 % of the calories you take in each day. For it to work properly, it must be fed. Even if you're not a breakfast eater, that meal is the best way to prepare your brain for the day. A muffin with peanut and butter in it, a glass of milk, and an orange, might be what your brain may be asking you the first thing in the morning when you feel your head is in a fog. Having sunflower seeds and fruit between meals adds more muscle to that hungry, demanding organ. Vitamin B-1 also helps the memory, and that is found in eggs, meats and nuts. In Chinese culture, walnuts (核桃) are known as the fruit for a long life because it is believed that they feed both the kidneys and the brain. And according to Chinese culture, if you keep those two important organs in good working order, you'll live longer.However forgetful you are, just keep in mind the letter "B", which will help you to "bear in mind almost everything".9. The underlined word "muffin" in the third paragraph probably means.A. brainB. dinnerC. calorieD. cake10. In the passage, Chinese culture is mentioned toA. support the idea of long lifeB. show the importance of vitamin B-1C. warn the readers of two organsD. remind us of walnuts and sunflower seeds11. What can we conclude from the passage?A. What we eat every day has a great effect on our memory.B. 30 percent of our brain is still active when we are sleeping.C. It doesn't make difference to our brain whether we have breakfast.D. Our memory depends largely on short-term memory bank.12. The best title for the passage could beA. Causes of Memory LossB. Vitamin B-2 and HealthC. Forgetful? But not BrainD.
