Look: you got a ribbon, honey！”Kids are smart. That didn't __9__ him. “Yeah, but who won？” he asked. I could sense his disappointment and my own disappointment as well. What's the point of having a __10__ if you're not going to pick a winner?I understand what the school was trying to do.

Stubbornly, we wait for someone else to reach out to us — __1__ this is the only way we can forgive or __2__ a friendship or family relationship.

(2015·江苏四市六校联考)It’s early January and for many, it’s the right time of year to hit “reset〞 and (re)commit to all the things you want to happen in 2015: exercise, lose weight, and finally learn Chinese, etc. Our lists have been made, but the outcomes tend to let us down.We may start off strong, but we can get steered off course before we realize it. You would have gone to the gym, but the delivery is coming in the morning so you have to wait for it. You did great last week keeping off the desserts, so what the heck — it’s a birthday party, you deserve to have just one! You were totally up for going to that networking event, but your husband is away and the kids need you. Your mind becomes masterful at creating those convincing “reason〞 why you couldn’t do something.Of course, there are many times when we fight through the various circumstances that present themselves to achieve something that matters to us, but then there are other times when we buy into the excuses and stories we tell ourselves to defend why not to do something.I’ve worked with many successful people over the years, and they frequently share similar habits and routines that make up the kind of mindset that is good at achieving goals and persevering through any circumstances. I’ve often taken note of them, and here are the top five most easy­to­do actions that can be applied to any goal or commitment you have. I find these especially helpful as we begin a fresh new year of goals.1．GET EARLY WINSYou cannot underestimate how much this fuels your commitment. Define what “early wins〞 look like and make sure that they’re in your control. For example, if you said, “exercise four times weekly〞， that’s in your hands, so make sureyou meet or exceed this number consistently. It fuels you to continue.2．TRACK POSITIVE PROGRESSIt’s important to know what you’ve accomplished. Mostly we focus on what ISN’T happening. This is bringing down your energy level and mood. Keep a notebook or journal (digitally or paper) of what is getting done so you can visibly see progress. If you have several goals, keep different journals.3．COMMIT TO OTHERSThe more you share your goals with others, the more you become responsible for taking action. Take it a step further and enlist someone you will “report〞 to and share your progress. Make sure this person push you and not let you off the hook.4．MAKE MISTAKES AND MOVE ONYou won’t be perfect. When you’re not, declare, embrace and own it, then move on fast. Recommit and get right back in the game. Also, disable your rearview mirrors (后视镜). What happened before doesn’t have to influence what happens next.5．DEFINE YOUR OWN SUCCESSThere is no “right〞 way to get to your goal. It’s yours and you’re the author. Clearly map out the route to the top with milestones and what success looks like. The more clear you are on not only the “what〞but the “how〞， the easier it will be to take action.The goals you create are hugely important, but in fact the most exciting part is the self­discovery in the process of getting there. Make this year an amazing year of breaking barriers and being “unreasonable〞 with yourself to achieve success.5．________ 6.________ 7.________ 8.________9．________ 10.________Ⅱ.书面表达(总分为25分)(2015·南京师大附中二模)请阅读下面短文，并按照要求用英语写一篇150词左右的文章。

ASeptember is the month for fashion, with four international cities hosting Fashion Week. All eyes will turn to New York City, London, Milan and Paris this month to see which city puts on the best show.New YorkNew York Fashion Week, or NYFW, kicks off on September 5th and runs for approximately eight days. NYFW is considered the most commercial and casual of the four. It is also the only event to allow some fashion school students to participate, bringing a fresh look to the runway. LondonLondon Fashion Week （LFW）comes on the heels of NYFW, starting on September 13th and running through September 17th.

A pregnant woman and her screaming 2-year-old daughter were trapped in the car.While his partner, Allen Hadley, was tending to the driver, Lloyd couldn't get the frightened girl to calm down. He saw she was holding several bottles of nail polish, and then he had a better idea. He asked her if she wanted to paint his nails. Soon she entirely lit up. At the same time, Hadley showed up to check on the scene.Lloyd had calmed her down and was in the process of getting his fingers painted. Then Hadley just put his hand in there. The girl began to color his nails pink. By this time, she was not only calm, but she was also happy.The girl's mother was not injured. She thanked them for helping herdaughter feel better, and they all chuckled, looking at the firefighters' nails, and took some photos.The firefighters brought the photos back to headquarters and showed them around. The department put them up on Facebook, and thousands of people responded, with many thanking the firefighters for going out of their way to calm down a frightened girl.Fire Chief Mark Becraft said he had been surprised at all the attention. He said he was proud of his firefighters, and added that he had known members of the department who had done many things that weren't part of the job.After the fact, Lloyd and Hadley had a small matter to tend to：the layers of polish on their nails. They bought a bottle of nail polish remover, and used almost all of it.24.Why was the 2-year-old girl frightenedA. She was caught in an accident.B. Her mother was badly injured.C.

To introduce the little girl who likes polishing nails.D.To praise the two firefighters who learn to decorate nails.CIn spring, chickens start laying eggs again, bringing a welcome source of protein at winter’s end. So it’s no surprise that cultures around the world celebrate spring by honoring the egg.Some traditions are simple, like the red eggs that get baked into Greek Easter breads. Others upgrade the egg into a fancy art, like the heavily jewel-covered “eggs” that were favored by the Russians starting in the 19th century.One ancient form of egg art is egg painting, which comes to us from Ukraine. For centuries, Ukrainians have been drawing complicated patterns on eggs. Contemporary artists have followed this tradition and adapted the traditional methods to create eggs that speak to the anxieties of our age: Life is precious, and delicate. Eggs are, too.“There’s something about their delicate nature that crazily appeals to me,” says New Yorker cartoonist Roz Chast. Several years ago, she became interested in egg painting and learned the traditional Ukrainian technique to draw her very modern characters. “I’ve broken eggs atevery stage of the process — from the very beginning to the very, very end.”But there’s an appeal in that vulnerability. “There’s part of this sickening horror that I kind of like, the horror of knowing you’re walking on the edge with this, knowing that it could all fall apart at any second.” Chast’s designs, such as a worried man alone in a tiny boat, reflect that delicateness.Traditional Ukrainian decorated eggs also spoke to those fears. The complex and detailed patterns were believed to offer protection against evil.Egg painting art, dating back to 300 B.C., was later absorbed into the Christian church. The old symbols, however, still survive. A decorated egg with a bird on it, given to a young married couple, is a wish for children.A decorated egg thrown into the field would be a wish for a good harvest.28. What do we learn about the decorated “eggs” in RussiaA. They are shaped like jewel cases.B. They are heavily painted in red.C. They are favored as a form of art.D. They are valued by the rich.29. Why have contemporary artists continued the tradition of egg paintingA. Because eggs serve as a symbol of the coming of spring.B. Because eggs provide a source of protein in winter’s end.C. Because eggs provide a unique surface to paint on.D. Because eggs reflect the anxieties of people today.30. Which of the following best explains “vulnerability” underlined in paragraph 5A. Delicateness.B. Technique.C. Fear.D. Anxiety.31. What is the main idea of the textA. Egg painting art preserves traditional and popular symbols.B. Different cultures have different ways of honoring the egg.C. Ukrainian egg painting art appeals to contemporary artists.D. Egg painting art continues and develops in pace with time.DImagine you enter a car with no steering wheel, no brake or accelerator pedals (踏板). Under a voice-activated command, you say an address. “The fastest route will take us 15.3 minutes. Should I take it ” You say “yes” and you are on your way. The car responds and starts moving all by itself. All you have to do is to sit back and relax.How strange would it be if, one day in the future, everyone had such a car No crazy driving, no quarrels, no cutting in; traffic laws would be respected and driving much safer. On the other hand, imagine the cost savings for local police enforcement (强制执行) and town budgets without all those speeding and parking tickets.A new technology has the potential to change modern society thoroughly. There’s no question that self-driving vehicles could be anenormous benefit. The potential for safer cars means accident statistics would drop: some 94% of road accidents in the U.S. involve human error. Older drivers and visually-or physically-disabled people would gain a new level of freedom. Maintaining safe speeds and being electric, self-driving cars would sharply reduce pollution levels and dependency on non-renewable fuels. Roads would be quieter, people safer.But we must also consider the impact of the new technology on those who now depend on driving for their living. According to the U.S. Department of Labor, in May 2015 there were 505,560 registered school bus drivers. The American Trucking Association lists approximately 3.5 million professional truck drivers in the U.S. The companies developing self-driving vehicles should be partnering with state and federal authorities to offer retraining for this massive workforce, many of whom will be displaced by the new technology.New technologies will, and should, be developed. This is how society moves forward. However, progress can’t be one-sided. It is necessary for the companies and state agencies involved to consider the moral consequences of these potential changes to build a better future for all.32. What would be the effect of the wide use of driverless carsA. More policemen would inspect the streets.B. People would never feel angry about the traffic.C. It would save local governments a lot of money.D. Traffic regulations would be a thing of the past.33. How would the elderly and the disabled benefit from driverless carsA. They would get rid of air pollution.B. They could enjoy greater mobility.C. They would suffer no road accidents.D. They could go anywhere they want.34. What would be the negative effect of driverless carsA. The conflict between labor and management would sharpen.B. Many drivers would have to find new ways of earning a living.C. Drivers would have a hard time adapting to new road conditions.D. The gap between various departments of society would be widened.35. What does the author suggest businesses and the government doA. Enable everyone to benefit from new technologies.B. Keep pace with technological developments.C. Make new technologies affordable to everyone.D. Popularize the use of new technologies and devices.第二节(共5小题:每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

（英语）高考英语二轮复习专项训练非谓语动词含解析一、单项选择非谓语动词1．________ your own needs and styles of communication is as important as learning to convey your affection and emotions.A．Understanding B．To be understoodC．Being understood D．Having understood【答案】A【解析】【详解】考查非谓语动词。

句意：了解你自己的需求和沟通方式与学习传达你的感情和情绪同样重要。

不定式（短语）或动名词（短语）均可作主语，区别在于不定式常表示将来，是特指；而动名词表示一般情况，是泛指。

而本句指的是普遍现象，属泛指，故用动名词较好。

故选A。

2．______ to as much English as possible is a good way to learn English well.A．Exposed B．Being exposed C．Having exposed D．To expose【答案】B【解析】试题分析：句意：尽可能多的接触英语是学好英语的很好的办法。

这里is是谓语，前面是主语，应该用动名词，而且be exposed to“暴露于，接触”，所以选B。

考点：考查动名词做主语3．Mrs. White showed her students some old maps ________ from the libraryA．to borrow B．borrowed C．to be borrowed D．borrowing【答案】B【解析】【详解】考查非谓语动词。

句意：怀特抬头给学生看一些从图书馆借来的旧地图。

分析句子可知，这里需要非谓语动词修饰maps，因为maps和borrow是被动关系吗，所以用过去分词做定语，故选B。
