B由前两句,可知父母之间有矛盾〞,再根据regarding untidiness and daily routinetasks〔关于不整洁和日常事情〕,对照各选项,只有argument〔争吵〕适合.〔逻辑推断〕3. C由前句的untidiness和后面的clothes thrown on the floor可知,房间是messy〔凌乱不堪的〕.〔逻辑推断；也可将untidiness与messy看作是近义复现〕4. B由上文提到的收拾房间之类的事,应是housework〔家务活〕.〔上下义复现〕5. C 由后面的not cleaning up their room or refusing to do the shopping 可知,这里应是dropping the towel in the bathroom , 一起为blame them的原因.〔逻辑推断,或词语同现,受责备的应都是负面的意思〕6.

B由but可知,要选与understand 〔理解〕相对的scold〔责骂〕.〔词语同现；逻辑推断〕15. C此句是强调结构,是对前两句的总结,一句是说要lend an ear to〔=listen to倾听〕,一句是说要understand 〔倾听〕,所以总结为只有通过倾听和相互理解, 父母与孩子之间的问题才可得到解决〞.〔原词复现〕第二节语法填空〔共10小题；每题1.5分,总分值15分〕阅读下面短文,根据句子结构的语法性和上下文连贯的要求,在空格处填入一个适当的词或者括号中词语的正确形式填空,并将答案填写在做题卡标号为16~25的相应位置上.Last year, my brother and I went to Miami for a vacation.

One after another, the next six drivers arriving at the tollbooth were informed, up ahead already paid your fare. 〞It turned out that the woman, Natalie Smith, had read something on a friend ;refrigerator:“Practice random kindness and senseless acts of beauty. " The phrase impressed her so much that she copied it down.Judy Foreman spotted the same phrase on a warehouse wall far away from home. When it stayed on her mind for d ays, she gave up and drove all the way back to copy it down.

It was in a restaurant that Anne wrote the phrase down on a piece of paper, after turning it around in her mind for days."Here ' s the idea, “ Anne says. " Anything you think there should be more of, do it randomly. Her fantasies include painting the classrooms of shabby schools, leaving hot meals on kitchen tables in the poor part of town, and giving money secretly to a proud old lady. Anne says,“Kindness can build on itself as much as violence can.〞The acts of random kindness spread. If you were one of those drivers who found your fare paid, who knows what you might have been inspired to do for someone else later.

D细节理解题.此题是问谁想出这句话来的〞,由第四段中的"It was in a restaurantthat Anne wrote the phrase down on a piece of paper 可知, 是Anne Herbert 想出这句话来的. 可用排除法,Natalie Smith 是在朋友的冰霜上看到的, Judy Foreman是在仓库的墙上抄下来的,Alice Johnson是从她女儿那得知的,她女儿是由于Judy Foreman的老公将此句写在教室的墙上而得知的,故不是这三个人想出来的.34.

I would be going to a small village near Abuja, Nigeria. Where? What? Nigeria? I had no idea. But I was about to find out.After completing my training, I was sent to the village that was small and desperately in need of proper accommodation. Though the local villagers were poor, they offered their homes, hearts, and food as if I were their own family. I was asked to lead a small team of local people in building a new schoolhouse. For the next year or so, I taught in that same schoolhouse. But I sometimes think I learned more from my students than they did from me.Sometime during that period, I realized that all those things that had seemed so strange or unusual to me no longer did, though I did not get anywhere with the local language, and returned to the United States a different man.

However, ocean expert Curtis Ebbesmeyer does it in a special way --- by studying movements of random floating garbage. A scientist with many years experience, he started this type of research in the early 1990s when he heardabout hundreds of athletic shoes washing up on the shores of the northwest coast of the United States. There were so many shoes that people were setting up swap meets to try and match left and right shoes to sell or wear.Ebbesmeyer found out in his researches that the shoes - about 60,000 in total - fell into the ocean in a shipping accident. He phoned the shoe company and asked if they wanted the shoes back. As expected, the company told him that they didn't. Ebbesmeyer realized this could be a great experiment. If he learned when and where the shoes went into the water and tracked where they landed, he could learn a lot about the patterns of ocean currents.The Pacific Northwest is one of the world's best areas for beachcombing〔海滩搜寻〕becausewinds and currents join here, and as a result, there is a group of serious beachcombers in the area. Ebbesmeyer got to know a lot of them and asked for their help in collecting information about where the shoes landed. In a year he collected reliable information on 1,600 shoes. With this data, he and a colleague were able to test and improve a computer program designed to model ocean currents, and publish the findings of their study.As the result of his work, Ebbesmeyer has become known as the scientist to call with questions about any unusual objects found floating in the ocean. He has even started an association of beachcombers and ocean experts, with 500 subscribers from West Africa to New Zealand. They have recorded all lost objects ranging from potatoes to golf gloves.41.

How did Ebbesmeyer prove his assumption?A. By collecting information from beachcombers.B. By studying the shoes found by beachcomber.C. By searching the web for ocean currents models.D. By researching ocean currents data in the library.44. Ebbesmeyer is most famous for.A. traveling widely the coastal cities of the worldB. making records for any lost objects on the seaC. running a global currents research associationD. phoning about any doubtful objects on the sea45. What is the purpose of the author in writing this passage?A. To call people's attention to ocean pollution.B. To warn people of shipping safety in the ocean.C. To explain a unique way of studying ocean currents.D. To give tips on how to search for lost objects on the beach.答案及解析：本文是说明文,介绍了一种研究洋流的特别方式.41. B 词义猜想题.由前面的so many shoes和后面的to try and match left and right shoes to sell or wear,特别是sell,可知是建立交易市场,应选B.42. C 细节理解题.由第二段二、三、四句"He phoned the shoe company and asked if they wanted the shoes back.

AThe Biggest Stadiums in the WorldPeople have been pouring into stadiums since the days of ancient Greece. In around 8 A.Q., the Romans built the Colosseum, which remains the world's best known stadium are continues to inform contemporary design. Rome’s Colosseum was 157 feet tall and had 80 entrances, seating 50,000 people. However, that was small fry compared with the city’s Circus Maximus, which accommodated around 250,000 people.These days, safety regulations-not to mention the modern sports fan’s desire for a good view and a comfortable seat-tend to keep stadium capacities（容量）slightly lower. Even soccer fans tend to have a seat each; gone are the days of thousands standing to watch the match.For the biggest stadiums in the world, we have used data supplied by the World Atlas list so far, which ranks them by their stated permanent capacity, as well as updated information from official stadium websites.All these stadiums are still functional, still open and still hosting the biggest events in world sport.•Rungrado 1st of May Stadium, Pyongyang, D.P.R-Korea.

2021四川绵阳市高考英语阅读明白得、完形填空选练（6）及答案阅读以下四篇短文，从每题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中，选出最正确选项。

Napoleon, as a character in Tolstoy’s War and Peace, is more than once described as having“fat little hands.” Nor does he “sit well or firmly on the horse.” He is said to be“undersized, “ with “short legs” and a“round stomach”. The issue here is not the accuracy of Tolstoy’s description—it seems not that far off from historical accounts—but his choice of facts: other things that could be said of the man are not said. We are meant to understand the difference of a warring commander in the body of a fat little Frenchman. Tolstoy’s Napoleon could be any man wandering in the streets and putting a little of powdered tobacco up his nose—and that is the point.It is a way the novelist uses to show the moral nature of a character. And it turns out that, as Tolstoy has it, Napoleon is a crazy man. In a scene in Book Three of War and Peace, the wars having reached the critical year of 1812, Napoleon receives a representative from the Tsar(沙皇), who has come with peace terms. Napoleon is very angry: doesn’t he have more army? He, not the Tsar, is the one to make the terms. He will destroy all of Europe if his army is stopped. “That is what you will have gained by engaging me in the war! “ he shouts. And then, Tolstoy writes, Napoleon“walked silently several times up and down the room, his fat shoulders moving quickly.”Still later, after reviewing his army amid cheering crowds, Napoleon invites the shaken Russian to dinner. “He raised his hand to the Russian’s. . . face, “ Tolstoy writes, and“taking him by the ear pulled it gently. . .” To have one’s ear pulled by the Emperor was considered the greatest honor and mark of favor at the French court. “Well, well, why don’t you say anything?” said he, as if it was ridiculous in his presence to respect any one but himself, Napoleon.Tolstoy did his research, but the composition is his own.1. T olstoy’s description of Napoleon in War and Peace is.A. far from the historical factsB. based on the Russian historyC. based on his selection of factsD. not related to historical details2. Napoleon was angry when receiving the Russian representative because .A. he thought he should be the one to make the peace termsB. the Tsar’s peace terms were hard to acceptC. the Russians stopped his military movementD. he didn’t have any more army to fight with3. What did Napoleon expect the Russian representative to do?A. T o walk out of the room in anger.B. To show agreement with him.C. T o say something about the Tsar.D. T o express his admiration.4. T olstoy intended to present Napoleon as a man who is .A. ill-mannered in dealing with foreign guestsB. fond of showing off his iron willC. determined in destroying all of EuropeD. crazy for power and respect5. What does the last sentence of the passage imply?A. A writer doesn’t have to be faithful to his findings.B. A writer may write about a hero in his own way.C. A writer may not be responsible for what he writes.D. A writer has hardly any freedom to show his feelings.【参考答案】1--五、CADDAASports is not only physically challenging, but it can also mentally challenging．Criticism（批评）from coaches（trainers）, parents, and other teammates, as well as pressure to win can create too much anxiety or stress for young athletes．Stress can be physical, emotional, or psychological, and research has showed that it can lead to burnout．Burnout has been described as dropping or quitting of an activity that was at one time enjoyable．The early years of development are critical years for learning about oneself．The sport setting is one where valuable experiences can take place．Young athletes can, for example, learn how to cooperate with others, make friends, and gain other social skills that will be used throughout their lives．Coaches and parents should be aware（realize）, at all times, that their feedback（反馈）to youngsters can greatly affect their children．Youngsters may take their parents’ and coaches’ criticisms to heart and find a flaw（缺点）in themselves．Coaches and parents should also be cautious（careful）that youth sport participation does not become work for children．The outcome of the game should not be more important than the process of learning the sport and other life lessons．In today’s youth sp ort setting, young athletes may be worrying more about who will win instead of enjoying themselves and the sport．Following a game, many parents and coaches focus on（pay more attention to）the outcome and find fault withyoungsters’ performances．Positive reinforcement should be provided in spite of the outcome．Research shows that positive reinforcement motivates and has a greater effect on learning than criticism．Again, criticism can create high levels of stress（pressure）, which can lead to burnout．1．According to the passage sport is positive for young people in that __________．A．it can help them learn more about societyB．it teaches them how to set realistic goals for themselvesC．it enables them to find flaws in themselvesD．it can provide them with valuable experiences2．According to the passage parents and coaches should __________．A．help children to win every gameB．pay more attention to letting children enjoy sportsC．enable children to understand the positive aspect of sportsD．train children to deal with stress3．The author’s purpose in writing the passage is ___________．A．to persuade young children not to worry about criticismB．to emphasize the importance of positive reinforcement to childrenC．to discuss the skill of combing criticism with encouragementD．to teach young athletes how to avoid burnout【参考答案】1—3、DBB阅读明白得---------BWhen a couple decides to marry, they naturally inform both sets of parents and stepparents before having a party planned or telling all their friends．The days are long gone of the man going trembling to the girl’s father and saying, “ Sir, may I have the h onor of having the hand of your daughter in marriage?” However, a wise couple always discuss their plans for marriage with theirrespective families, and a young man often suggests a “financial talk” with his future father-in-law before the latter is faced with the embarrassment of asking for one．Even if a young woman has supported herself and lives away from home, her parents have the right to know how her fiancé proposes to handle the long-range financing of their family and home．The fiancé should state h is income, his savings, and his failure expectations, without overstating any of them．Engagement parties are given by the parents of the bride-to-be or by a relative of the bride acting for her parents, usually just before the newspaper announcement of the engagement．If the bride-to-be and her fiancé live in a city other than her parents, it is better for her parents to go to the city than her to go home to them for the engagement party．She and her fiancé will, after all, be partied in her parents’ hometow n during the wedding festivities．However, if the family home is not far away, it is proper for the engaged couple to travel there for the announcement party．The young man’s family should be invited, too．If the bride’s parents are no longer living, then a r elative or a close friend can give the party．It is usually a simple cocktail’s party, champagne served for toasts to the engaged couple．If the party is very large, the engaged couple and the girl’s parents might form a receiving line---- but they do not have to．The bride-to-be usually wears her engagement ring officially for the first time on this occasion．If she has a gift for the groom-to-be, she gives it to him right before or after the engagement party．For Americans, the traditional engagement ring is a diamond solitaire （单粒宝石）．However, today anything goes---- a ring with many colored stones, a ring with a large semiprecious stone, an heirloom （传家宝）ring reset in a modern design, or even a stone in the bride’s family, simply reset in a Tiffany setting．The wedding ring will be of the same metal as the engagement ring．Some girls prefer no engagement ring but choose a wedding band that is decorated with stones instead．No one has to have an engagement ring．A girl may want her fiancé to give her a pearl neck lace instead, or a jeweledwatch．Jeweled rings can be given as gifts on many occasions during the married lives---- such as wedding anniversaries, the birth of a child, or an important job promotion．4．According to the first paragraph, young men ________．A．must tell all their friends before planning a partyB．used to feel afraid of going to meet their girl friends’ parentsC．must promise that their family could support themD．must guarantee they live away from home already5．The underlined word “one” i n the first paragraph most probably means ________．A．a marriage B．a planC．a financial talk D．an embarrassment6．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A．The bride-to-be and her fiancé will have to wait in line with both of their parents．B．If the girl’s parents are dead, a relative or a close friend gives a party on their behalf．C．The engagement party is usually given before the newspaper announcement．D．It’s no longer necessary to give a diamond solitaire as the engagement ring．7．We can infer from the last paragraph that ________．A．a young man can give his wife a jeweled watch on the birthday of their childB．the heirloom must be reset in a modern designC．the engagement ring and the wedding ring are differentD．some girls don’t mind what they are given for the engagement【参考答案】4—7、BCAD【2021界广东省广雅中学高三上第一次月考】完型填空（本大题共15小题,总分值30分）阅读下面短文,把握其大意,然后从所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最正确选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

My mother used to buy me a box of paper and 42 me in the art and value of saying "thank you". She proved to be right.A study showed that it took less than 5 minutes to write the thank-you notes. Just 5 minutes to make 43 person feel overjoyed! 44 , in our "instant" world, the idea of getting an actual pen and writing an actual note seems to never come to mind. We tend to do what is 45 for us-a quick text or an email.It's easy to use the excuse of being busy, but even very busy and 46 businessmen find time to 47 thank-you notes.

It's 52 not to ask how he did it. 53 , he had many other things to do besides writing a thank-you note. Conant made time for 54 because he knew the impact each one would have.

第六组(建议用时：30分钟)Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2021·长春监测二)A few years ago, I__felt__like__I__was__stuck__in__a__rut(车辙)，so I decided to follow in the footsteps of a great American philosopher, Morgan Spurlock，and try something new for 30 days.The idea is actually pretty simple.Think about something you’ve always wanted to add to your life and try it for the next 30 days.It turns out 30 days is just the right amount of time.There’re a few things I learned while doing these 30­day challenges.The first was the time was much more memorable.This was part of a challenge I did to take a picture every day.I also noticed that as I started to do more and harder 30­day challenges，my self­recognition grew.I went from a desk­dwelling computer nerd(电脑迷)to the kind of guy who biked to work.imanjaro.I would never have been that adventurous before I started my 30­day challenges.I also figured out that if you really want something badly enough, you can do anything for 30 days.Have you ever wanted to write a novel？Tens of thousands of people try to write their own 50，000­word novel in 30 days.It turns out that all you have to do is write 1，667 words a day for a month.So I did.So here’s my question to you：What are you waiting for？The next 30 days are going to pass whether you like it or not，so why not think about something you have always wanted to try and give it a shot!1．The underlined sentence in Para. 1 means ________．A．I felt my life was unchanged and boringB．I didn’t like following others’ footstepsC．I thought that I was in troubleD．it seemed that my car broke down2．The author did all the following things every day to change EXCEPT ________．A．take a photoB．cycle to workC．write over 1，000 wordsD．stick to computer games3．The author of the passage aims to ________．A．talk about his own experiencesB．encourage people to try something newC．introduce a new philosophyD．show people the challenges in life4．Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A．Would You Like to Change Yourself?B．Fed up With Your LifeC．Ways to Challenge YourselfD．Try Something New for 30 DaysB(2021·江西南昌高三一模)People who possess high self­esteem are able to commit better and produce a greater bond in relationships with others. Dr. Douglas feels that most people do not value themselves, but with love and self­respect anyone can be above normality and grasp success with the family, the office, or others.We have become too reliant on intelligence, beauty, and money for our own self ­esteem. The loss of esteem reduces the will and ability to set and reach goals. In a series of reading Douglas teaches how to avoid negative statements, how to change them into self­facing behavior, and how to take charge of your mental attitude. Where other motivational and self­help work stops with the theoretical plan for success, Douglas takes everyday examples and puts them into his books. From raising children who believe in themselves t o using self­esteem to help bridge the gap in the workplace, he gives readers concrete solutions to the problems that might ruin their interpersonal relations.Self­esteem building comes from filling your thoughts with positive affirmations(肯定) and learning to react to failures with motivation instead of self­destruction. These lessons are valuable for anyone who feels that life is even slightly out of control. People who feel they have adequate esteem can learn to use it to make their success grander, faster, and more beneficial for others. Douglas approaches this process of self­development as a means of more than creating goodthings for the individual but also for setting up keys for influencing good things for others.For more than thirty years, Dr. Douglas has addressed more than two million people on topics from time management to speaking effectively to raising drug­free children. He is the author of fifteen books, including How to Make a Habit of Succeeding.5．What can we infer from Paragraph 1?A．Most people behave well enough.B．Self­respect means being above normality.C．Self­esteem matters much.D．Committing better equals greater success.6．Why does Douglas put everyday examples into his books?A．To be reliant o n self­esteem.B．To set and reach goals.C．To avoid negative thoughts.D．To offer concrete solutions.7．What does the author advise those whose life is slightly out of control to do?A．Learn to be positive.B．Face it unmotivatedly.C．Admit se lf­destruction.D．Ask for help.8．What’s the most important to be self­development?A．Influencing the individual.B．Influencing more people.C．Gaining more benefits.D．Speaking more effectively.Ⅱ.完形填空(2021·江西师大附中临川一中联考)For years I have had no idea what I have been doing with my life.I was a 30­year­old lawyer in New York.__1____being a lawyer was never my dream or goal in life.I honestly wanted to be a writer.I have a great __2____ and would write amazing stories in my head.But I always knew that being a writer was __3____ possible for me because it was a better__4____ decision to stay a lawyer.Recently，I couldn’t fall asleep__5____ my usual time of 10 p．m., and when I did fall asleep I had the same dream__6__.

Most young architects—particularly those in big cities—can only dream about working in a building of their own. And making that dream come true often means finding a building no one else seems to want,which is exactly what happened to David Yocum and his partner,Brian Bell. Their building is a former automobile electrical-parts firm in Atlanta. From the outside,it looks too old,even something horrible,but open the door and you are in a wide,open courtyard,lined on three sides with rusting (生锈的)walls.In 2000,Yocum and Bell found this building in the city’s West End. Built in 1947,the structure had been abandoned years earlier and the roof of the main building had fallen down. But the price was right,so Yocum bought it. He spent eight months of his off-hours on demolition (拆除),pulling rubbish out through the roof,because it was too dangerous to go inside the building. The demolition was hard work,but it gave him time to think about what he wanted to do,and“to treasure what was there—the walls,the rust,the ligh t. “ Yocum said. “Every season,more paint falls off the walls and more rust develops. It’s like an art installation (装置)in there—a slow-motion show. “Since the back building had been constructed without windows,an all-glass front was added to the building to give it a view of the courtyard,and skylights were installed in the roof. The back of the building is a working area and a living room for Yocum and his wife. A sort of buffer (缓冲) zone between the front and the back contains a bathroom,a kitchen and a mechanical room,and the walls that separate these zones have openings that allow views through to the front of the studio and the courtyard beyond.Yocum and Bell,who have just completed an art gallery for the city,feel that the experience from thedecoration of their building,focusing on the inside rather than the outside,has influenced their work. It has also given these architects a chance to show how they can make more out of less.1. According to the passage,it is for most young architects in big cities to work in a building of their own.A. easyB. unnecessaryC. unrealisticD. common2. Yocum bought the old building because .A. it was a bargain to himB. it was still in good conditionC. it was located in the city centerD. it looked attractive from the outside3. Working on the old building,Yocum and Bell .A. pulled rubbish out through the roofB. removed the skylights from the bathroomC. presented a slow-motion show in an art galleryD. built a kitchen at the back part of the old building4. It can be inferred from the passage that Yocum and Bell .A. benefited a lot from pulling down the roofB. turned more old buildings into art galleriesC. got inspiration from decorating their old buildingD. paid more attention to the outside of the art gallery5. The main idea of the passage is that .A. people can learn a lot from their failuresB. it is worthwhile to spend money on an old buildingC. people should not judge things by their appearanceD. c reative people can make the best of what they have【参考答案】1--5 、CAACD阅读明白得-------C“Opinion” is a word that is used carelessly today. It is used to refer to matters of taste, belief, and judgment. This inaccurate use would probably cause little confusion if people didn’t attach too much importance to opinion. Unfortunately, most attach great importance to it. “I have as much right to my opinion as you to yours,’’ and ‘‘Everyone’s entitled to his opinion,’’ are common expressions. In fact, anyone who would challenge another’s opinion is likely to be branded intolerant.Is that label accurate? Is it intolerant to challenge another’s opinion? It depends on whatdefinition of opinion you have in mind. For example, you may ask a friend ‘‘What do you think of the new Ford cars?” And he may reply, “In my opinion, they’re ugly.” In this case, it would not only be intolerant to challenge his statement, but foolish. For it’s obvious that by opinion he means his personal preference, a matter of taste. And as the old saying goes, ‘‘It’s pointless to argue about matters of taste.8. Which of the following statements is TRUE, according to the author?A. Everyone has a right to hold his own opinion.B. Free expression of opinions always leads to confusion.C. Most people tend to be careless in forming their opinions.D. Casual use of the word “opinion” often brings about quarrels.9. According to the author, who of the following would be labeled as intolerant?A. Someone who turns a deaf ear to others’ opinions.B. Someone who can’t put up with others’ tastes.C. Someone who values only their own opinions.D. Someone whose opinion harms other people.10. The new Ford cars are cited as an example to show that ________.A. it is foolish to criticize a famous brandB. one should not always agree to others’ opinionsC. personal tastes are not something to be challengedD. it is unwise to express one’s likes and dislikes in public11. Considered judgment is different from personal preference in that ________.A. it is stated by judges in the courtB. it reflects public like and dislikesC. it is a result of a lot of controversyD. it is based on careful thought8—1一、阅读明白得----------DThe fact that life isn’t fair doesn’t mean we shouldn’t do everything in our power to improve our own lives or the world as a whole. To the contrary, it suggests that we should. When we don’t recognize or admit that life isn’t fair, we tend to feel pity fo r others and for ourselves. Pity, of course, is a self-defeating emotion that does nothing for anyone, except to make everyone feel worse than they already do. When we do recognize that life isn’t fair, however, we feel compassion(热情) for others and for ourselves. And compassion is a heartfelt emotion that delivers loving-kindness to everyone it touches. The next time you find yourself thinking about the injustices of the world, try reminding yourself of this very basic fact. You may be surprised that it can persuade you out of self-pity and into helpful action.12. The writer thought of his friend’s question as a good one because _______.A. he also wanted to know who held such an opinionB. it made him recall something during his childhoodC. like his friend, he also thought life was unfairD. he learned something from the question as a youngster13. Surrendering to the fact that life isn’t fair will ________.A. keep us from making everything perfectB. keep us from doing everything in our powerC. make us face unfair treatment bravelyD. make us know it’s our duty to perfect things14. The second paragraph of the passage mainly tells us that ________.A. it’s nice to accept the injustice of lifeB. it’s nice to surrender to the lifeC. we should not surrender to the lifeD. we should not feel sorry for everything15. In the last paragraph, “this very basic fact” refers to the fact that _______.A. you should not pity for othersB. life isn’t and won’t be fairC. compassion is heartfelt emotionD. pity is a self-defeating emotion12—1五、阅读明白得---------C“Who questions much, shall learn much, and remember much．”---- Francis Bacon （1561-1626）It seems obvious now how we acquire knowledge and understanding．To start with, you need questions．Then, to find answers, you observe the world around you and study the facts．After that you consider possible answers and test each to find the right ones．Although today we are more accustomed to typing a few key words into a search engine and waiting for the Internet to spit the answer out for us, modern scientists and thinkers are still solving the world’s problems with this type of analysis---- luckily for us．However, in the 17th century when Francis Bacon suggested that this type of thinking was the way to gain knowledge, he was going against the views of the day．At that time, people believed more in religion than in facts, and people like Galileo Galilei, who proved scientific ideas such as “ the Earth is not the centre of the universe”, were often punished by the church with no one coming to their defence．The church and many people tended to ignore the facts and were unwilling to challenge that they had always comfortably believed．They preferred to make assumptions about the world based on the experience of others．In fact, when Galilei proved that the Earth was not the centre of the universe, instead of believing him, people chose to believe ancient views put forward by the great philosopher Aristotle （384-322BC）．This also shows how people didn’t want to searc h for their own understanding or educate themselves．And this is still often true today．People feel that if someone important and respected says that something is right, then it must be so．But even though Aristotle was a great man who inspired many great scientists and philosophers after him, he was wrong at times．And Galilei too made mistakes．He is now known as the father of astronomy but he believed that the earth moved round the sun in a perfect circle．He was wrong．Therefore our understanding of the world around us is constantly growing and changing．In other words, we learn more every day and none of us can ever sit back and say “We know it all．”We need to thank the great men of the past for the wisdom to know that we don’t know it all and probably never will, for that would mean a world without questions．So much of our knowledge and understanding of the world today is due to people like Bacon and Galilei, who were brave enough to step out from the shadows of old thoughts in order to find the kingdom of k nowledge that today’s civilization is built upon．These men knew that knowledge and understanding are things to fight for; more vital to a man, and more beneficial to mankind, some might say, than all the money in the world．“All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to discover them．”----Galileo Galilei （1564-1642）8．In Bacon and Galileo’s times, people would prefer to ________．A．learn new things by observing the world around themselvesB．acquire knowledge from church or experience of great ancestorsC．seek answers to their puzzles from contemporary scientistsD．explore knowledge out of facts they saw with their own eyes9．In this passage Bacon and Galileo are mentioned as examples for ________．A．their great achievements in scienceB．their ambition to doubt great ancestorsC．their revolutionary way of acquiring knowledgeD．their preference to believe in themselves rather than others10．What is the main purpose of the passage?A．To help the readers learn more about great thinkers in history．B．To convince the readers of the importance of thinking and discovering．C．To persuade the readers to thank the great men of the past for their wisdom．D．To encourage the readers to go against the views of their day．11．Which of the following is the process the writer suggests to acquire knowledge?A．asking questions→searching the Internet→ waiting the results→ finding answersB．acquiring knowledge and understanding→ asking questions→ answering questionsC．observing the world→ asking questions→ studying facts→ finding answers→ considering possibilitiesD．asking questions→ observing the world→ studying facts→ considering possibilities→ testing and finding answers【参考答案】8—1一、BCBD【2021界内蒙古巴市一中一模】完形填空(共20小.:每小1.5分.总分值30分)阅读下面短文.从短文后各题所给的四个选项《A、B.

The principles about applying for jobs have altered greatly lately. In the past, people preferred a hand-written application letter. However, nowadays it is becoming more and more common to apply for a job through the Internet. You can find information on the Internet about how to apply for jobs. Information can be found about how to fulfill your application letter, the clothes that you should wear and how to carry out the interview itself.The importance of body language is often mentioned, but doesn’t al ways get the attention it deserves. After all, before a word has ever been spoken, your body language will have already given people their first impression of you. Additionally, your body language will also give out a lot more information. Based on your body language it can be seen if you are self-confident. It can also show if you are a busy or a quiet type and it helps give an impression of whether you are speaking truthfully or not. Body language can show how enthusiastic you are and if you are a nice person, someone who will take his work seriously, but also someone who has a sense of humor and can enjoy a joke from time to time. The members of the application committee will ask you questions, but your answers won’t only be oral. The committee will not only pay attention to what you say, but also to how you say it!Body language will determine first if it“clicks”, and sometimes all it takes is just a few seconds. Everybody uses body language, but it takes place mostly at a subconscious (下意识的)level. Using body language appropriately, you can definitely increase your chances of getting a job.1. What kind of people is the text mainly meant for?A. Interviewers.B. Job-hunting people.C. Employers.D. Lay-off workers.2. We can learn from the first paragraph that______.A. hand-written letters are not used in finding a jobB. the more expensive clothes interviewees wear, the betterC. body language is more important than spoken wordsD. Internet is of significance in applying for a job3. Using body language well in a job interview will probably______.A. get rid of the interviewers’ prejudiceB. determine what position one will getC. increase the possibility to get the wanted jobD. help one remove nervousness4. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Those using body language are usually confident.B. Body language is often used on purpose in job hunting.C. Body language is a mirror to reflect one’s personality.D. People enjoying jokes are preferred in a job interview.【参考答案】1—4、BDCC【2021中原名校联盟一模】DMid-IB at a glanceThe summer vacation is the time to consolidate（巩固）your learning and prepare for the year ahead.

Cards on their tables explain that this small amount helps bring clean water tochildren around the world. It’s called the UNICEF Tap Project.“UNICEF’s Tap Project is really all about bringing attention to the fact that over 900 million people around the globe do not have access to good, clean, healthy drinking water,” says Cary Stem, who heads the US Fund for UNICEF. She adds that water-borne illness is the second-highest cause of preventable childhood death in the world.“Each and every day approximately 4,100 children die just because they don’t have that access - 4,100 every single day.”The public service campaign encourages people to help change that statistic with a simple, affordable action: paying a dollar to get a glass of tap water at a restaurant.“One dollar buys enough good, clean water for a child for 40 days,” Stem says.“The tap project has expanded since it began five years ago with 300 restaurants in New York City. This year, Stem says, about 3,000 restaurants across the country are participating in the campaign. We raised about $2.5 million over the last five years of this campaign,” says Stem. “Last year, we raised over $1 million for the first time. This year we’re hoping to top that.”Stem credits the continued success of the campaign to an army of volunteers who support the tap project and raise money in their communities.The UNICEF Tap Project is promoting its efforts with a simple motto: when you take water, give water. Currently, UNICEF works in more than 100 countries around the world to improve access to safe water and sanitation facilities in schools and communities.Stem hopes that, by participating in the project, more Americans will realize that what they often take for granted is a precious and scarce resource in many other parts of the world.72. Restaurants began to charge for tap water to _______.A. increase their profitB. urge customers to save waterC. raise people’s awareness of the world water problemD. collect money for those without access to safe water73.
