Just by holding the watermelon near his ear and knocking on the surface with his fingers, Lee says, he can tell by the sound if the fruit is ripe enough to be eaten or not. He works for a rural cooperative set up by a group of watermelon farmers, and puts thousands of watermelons through the “knock test” daily, before they are shipped to downtown warehouses where the platform sources its supplies.The practice of knocking on watermelons to determine their ripeness can be found across cultures. In China, it is considered a national habit. Smart buyers tap on the fruit before purchase to ensure their money is well-spent. Some buyers knock on the fruit despite not knowing what the hollow sound means just to negotiate a better deal from the seller.As fruit sales have moved to online platforms in a big way, those who make a living by checking the quality of the fruits with their fingers are much in demand. Lee is one among the growing group. Their task is to conduct knock tests on behalf of e-buyers and ensure that the fruits selected to be sold online are uniform in size and quality.Lee, who was once an award-winning soccer player, now describes himself as a “goalkeeper for watermelons”. He quit soccer about four years ago and learned aboutmelon-knocking as an emerging profession and decided to become an apprentice(学徒) to an experienced farmer.After a year’s trial and error, Lee worked independently as a quality checker. “It is a highly demanding task. During the apprenticeship, I often cracked open melons to confirm my judgment. There are just no shortcuts, ” he said.4．What is the main purpose of the text?A．To introduce an emerging profession.B．To describe Lee’s career transformation.C．To discuss the importance of fruit quality testers.D．To explain the cultural role of watermelon-knocking.5．What has led to the high demand for watermelon quality testers?A．The popularity of watermelons.B．The big harvest of watermelons.C．An increase in watermelon prices.D．A rapid rise in online watermelon sales. 6．Why does Lee describe himself as a “goalkeeper for watermelons”?A．He was once an award-winning soccer player.B．He dreams of being a professional melon-knocker.C．He was taught by an experienced watermelon farmer.D．He ensures that customers enjoy watermelons of quality.7．What can we learn from Lee’s words in the last paragraph?A．Seeing is believing.B．Every man has his value.C．Great efforts and practice matter.D．Excellence can be found in anyprofession.In nature, octopuses (章鱼) hunt mainly with their sense of touch, using their eight arms to feel out their environment for hidden creatures. Researchers at the University of Minnesota recently studied a different way octopuses hunt—when they identify prey (猎物) based on sight. The study findings show that the marine creatures are quite consistent and methodical in how they approach prey.Lead researcher Trevor Wardill and his team placed California two-spot octopuses into water tanks, hiding them in caves where they would have one eye looking out. They then placed either fiddler crabs or white shrimp in the tanks to see how the octopuses would try to catch them, capturing the interactions on video. The crabs and shrimp behave differentlywhen trying to escape from predators (捕猎者), so using both species gave the researchers an opportunity to see whether this led the octopuses to use a different arm for hunting depending on the prey.Wardill’s team found that the octopuses almost always used the same arm to grab their prey. Specifically, the second arm from the middle of the octopuses’ body, on the same side of their body as the eye, caught the prey. If they needed more arms to grab prey, they would use the ones next to the second arm.The octopuses also attacked differently depending on the prey. When faced with crabs, an octopus would move suddenly on top of the crab with its whole body. However, when catching shrimp, the octopuses would take one arm and reach out very slowly toward the shrimp, then grab it and latch (缠住) onto it with its other arms to pull it in.Wardill and his team hope to do more research. They want to study the octopus’s brain as it attacks pre y to develop a better understanding of what role the creature’s nervous system plays in selecting the arms it uses.8．What is the recent study mainly about?A．Octopuses’ ability to hide itself.B．Octopuses’ way to track prey.C．Octopuses’ hunting mode via eyes.D．Octopuses’ method of perceiving the environment.9．What can we learn about the octopuses in the study?A．They adopt different strategies to hunt.B．They stretch arms slowly to catch crabs.C．They move suddenly to prey on shrimps.D．They use the second arm to catch prey anytime.10．What does the follow-up test aim to find out about the octopuses?A．Whether they’re nervous in hunting.B．How their nerves work during hunting.C．How they choose their arms in hunting.D．Whether they use their brain during hunting.11．Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?A．Octopuses: Skillful Hunters B．Octopuses: One-armed PredatorsC．Octopuses: A Sharp-eyed Species D．Octopuses: A Mysterious CreatureBusinesses are now in cost-cutting mode. Title inflation (头衔通胀) has crept into theemployers.To balance this unique economic environment, employers have figured out a way to comfort employees and job applicants without spending more money. They are offering impressive titles to soften the blow of not providing a raise to internal employees or big compensation to job candidates.An employee’s title is their identity. It gives them credibility in the office and makes them feel more powerful. In this sense, the policy is a sensible way to help keep staff and attract top candidates.But if you don’t really deserve the new title, it could come back and trouble you. Recruiters will be pleased to find a candidate who is a pe rfect fit for a significant, well-paying position in terms of skills, background, and previous experience. However, a stumbling block arises when they notice the candidate has a higher title than the client offers. Since a recruiter wants to make a placement and earn a fee, they won’t waste time and will seek out other candidates who are a better fit.Even if the recruiters decide to contact the candidate, there’s a good chance the candidate won’t accept. Because most people aren’t aware that their title was inflated and believe it was a reward for their outstanding performance. Understandably, they would be offended if they received a lower-level post. Now that you are at a certain level, you don’t want to go backward.What’s more, if your current title is too high, it raises red flags. For example, when searching for a new job, if your title is “director,” but the new role is under that level, the interviewer will curiously inquire, “why do you want to go down in title?” There will be an assumption from the hiring manager that something isn’t right. They may feel that the job seeker is leaving before being fired and willing to downgrade. Rather than trying to figure out the motivations of the candidate, they’ll move on to others who have a cleaner story without any baggage.12．What does the underlined word “plaguing”in paragraph 1 probably mean?A．Shocking.B．Embarrassing.C．Troubling.D．Confusing. 13．What can we learn about employees with impressive titles?A．They tend to look down upon others.B．Their salaries don’t match their titles.C．Their fear of being fired will disappear.D．They get a good platform for development.14．What will a recruiter probably do if a candidate’s title is higher than the client offers?A．Have a discussion with the client.B．Contact the job applicant immediately.C．Exclude the candidate from consideration.D．Gather more information about the candidate.15．What is hiring managers’ attitude towards those who choose to downgrade?A．Enthusiastic.B．Dismissive.C．Appreciative.D．Doubtful.It can be hard to stay motivated when you are on a training plan and this can lead to youtricks that will ensure you keep running all year around.Run with a partner. If you can, ask a friend to run with you, as then you have a reason to go out, even when you don’t want to. 17 You need someone who will help you out of the door on cold winter mornings.18 . A fast-track way to lose your motivation is to always run the same route over and over again. Mix it up by changing where you run. Try a new route and you will focus on things like how you are feeling rather than when you hit the next lamppost or tree.Mix up the training. 19 If you usually go for a long, slow run on a Sunday morning, why not try a little sprint session instead? You can pick a landmark anywhere and run as fast as you can until you get to it, before slowing down again to recover.Listen to music. The race itself will have plenty of motivational factors to keep you going, with the crowds cheering and other runners to concentrate on, but if you are out on your own, your favorite song can really cheer you up if you’re feeling that lull (低谷期) come over you. 20A．Vary your locations.B．Stimulate your motivation.C．You also need to vary your training patterns.D．This is especially the case when it comes to the cold months.E．Make sure you don’t pick someone who is likely to cancel on you.F．Some music devices will help you to stay motivated and on target.G．Music can help keep you going when the running gets a little tough.二、完形填空for us in French.

江苏省兴化中学2024届高三上学期10月月考英语试卷学校：___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________一、阅读理解This year, an unusual eight-day-long holiday will mark both the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day. Here are the upcoming films designed to entertain audiences during the break.The Volunteers: To the WarThe V olunteers: To the War, directed by Chen Kaige, boasts an all-star cast, shows the sacrifices made by China’s People’s V olunteer Army during the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea (1950-1953). Production took over a year and involved a monumental scale. No other film captures the National Day spirit quite like it. The film hits Chinese screens on Sept. 28.Under the LightThe crime drama Under the Light, directed by Zhang Yimou, also boasts an all-star cast. Zhang has described it as an exploration into fields he hasn’t dealt with before, characterizing it as urban, modern, and cool. The film will be released nationwide on Sept. 28.Lose to WinDirected by Gao Hu, Lose to Win is a Chinese remake of the 2018 Spanish film Champions, which is targeted toward audiences seeking lighthearted entertainment. The narrative centers on a conceited (自负的) basketball coach assigned to train a team of players with learning disabilities as part of his community service. Lose to Win opens across China on Sept. 28.Moscow MissionMoscow Mission, an explosive action film by Herman Yau, follows a cross-border manhunt, showing a horrible robbery and rape on a Moscow-bound train from Beijing. Inspired by true events from 1993, Yau has said how many of the scenes are nothing like he’s ever shot in his career previously as well as some he never imagined he’d film. Moscow Mission debuts in Chinese theaters on Sept. 29.1．Which film will most probably attract audiences on the National Day?A. The V olunteers: To the WarB. Under the LightC. Lose to WinD. Moscow Mission2．What do the films by Zhang Yimou and Herman Yau have in common?A. They have an all-star cast.B. They reflect the directors’ creativity.C. They are based on real life events.D. They are released on the same day.3．What is special about Lose to Win?A. It is a tragedy.B. It is about conceited basketball players.C. It is a new version.D. It takes five years to shoot.I arrived home from work, my mind racing. I was scheduled to perform an experiment using a pricey piece of equipment, but I had spent the whole day worrying about the experiment which was on the top of my agenda, and I amazingly longed to shut off my anxious thoughts. So after dinner, I made a cup of hot chocolate, stretched myself on my sofa, and opened a page. Almost instantly, my mind left behind the details of experimental design and stepped into a land of monsters, magic dust, and man-like bears comprising a wonderful world distinct from my daily life. It was exactly what I needed.Growing up, I was virtually never a big fan of novels. My classmates would be crazy about the latest Harry Potter book, while my copy sat collecting dust on a shelf. Instead, I would choose to read through the reference books related to my disciplines for better grades. After I started graduate school, extracurricular reading didn’t appeal to me at all but I spent most of my time on campus digesting research papers and textbo oks and my mind couldn’t handle processing fact-filled nonfiction books at home, too. So I knew that I needed to find a way to enjoy reading again.To help me stick with it, I made a New Year’s resolution: I would read two fiction books per month for the entire year. The result was an almost instant appreciation of fiction, along with many unexpected results including ones that have benefited my schoolwork.What surprised me the most was how much I learned. Some of the best books I read were historical fictional stories happening in a realistic historical setting. I learned about life in different countries as well as struggles people there faced during difficult periods in their histories. The books have helped me build sympathy and understanding, with an unexpected benefit: I’ve started to think more deeply about the diversity of issues in the scientific community and could serve it, heart and soul.4．What did the author do to wipe out the anxiety?A. He drowned it in chocolate.B. He escaped into a fantasy world.C. He slept on the sofa leisurely.D. He conducted an experiment.5．What does the author mean by the underlined part in Paragraph 2?A. Reading novels was a waste of time.B. Reading a good book was time well spent.C. He was too busy to take good care of his books.D. The Harry Potter book wasn’t as good as expected.6．How did the New Year’s resolution benefit the author?A. More sympathy went out to him.B. His moral values were strengthened.C. He learned much about religious diversity.D. He gained new insight into his academic discipline.7．What does the author think of the impact reading fiction books has on himself ?A. OverestimatedB. UnderestimatedC. FavourableD. TemporaryYou’re passed over for a job. Your back aches. Faced with difficulties large and small, you wonder if you’re an unlucky person. We turned to experts to understand why we believe in luck and how we can have that belief to make changes in our attitude towards life.Richard Wiseman, a psychology professor, doesn’t believe there’s anything magical about luck —it won’t help you or hurt you. “On the other hand, considering yourself lucky or unlucky is a way of seeing yourself, which has an impact on how you behave and how you think, and becomes a self-fulfilling antici pation,” he says. “So, in a sense, it absolutely does exist.”The sociology lecturer Vik Loveday interviewed academic employees who were on temporary contracts, an uncertain situation that caused anxiety. In general, when one of these academics learned about good news concerning their careers, such as getting a permanent job, they would attribute it to luck. Because they felt they had so little control, a move in a positive direction happened almost by accident, rather than as the result of hard work.In a 2021 study, Professor Woolley has looked at this idea in children and adulthood. For example, basketball player Michael Jordan would wear his college practice shorts under his National Basketball Association uniform for good luck. “Obviously, it’s that the superstitious (迷信的) custom gives him confidence and then he plays better,” Woolley says.Is it possible to change your attitude towards luck to get better outcomes? Wiseman believes some steps can improve your luck. He has found “lucky people not only max imize opportunities and know where they’re heading, but often they change course depending on how the wind is going”. Lucky people can also transform bad experiences to good.Specifically, you can shift your focus towards the positive by keeping a “luck diary”. Also don’t be a creature of habit. Watch a different TV program, speak to different people — even small shifts can be effective.8．What does Wiseman say about luck in paragraph 2?A. It might be wise to try one’s luck.B. Luck is a magical force to control us.C. The belief in luck influences our behavior.D. People’s well-being is determined by luck.9．What is the example of Jordan’s lucky shorts used for?A. Confirming Loveday’s study.B. Showing luck exists in real life.C. Disapproving Woolley’s r esearch.D. Comparing different lucks in sports.10．How can we improve our luck according to the last paragraph?A. Getting into a routine.B. Sticking to a goal firmly.C. Setting down terrible things.D. Making changes flexibly.11．What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Less Anxiety, More LuckB. Good or Bad Luck? Up to YouC. One Can Stay Lucky Through LifeD. Genius — the Mother of Good LuckWhile Huawei’s official website does not call Mate 60 Pro a 5G smartphone, the phone’s wideband capabilities are on par with other 5G smartphones, raising a related question: As a leader in 5G technology, has Huawei managed to develop a 5G smartphone on its own?The answer is not simple. Huawei, as a pioneer in global 5G communication equipment, has played a leading role in the commercialization of 5G technology, with its strong system design and fields such as baseband chips (基带芯片), baseband processors and 5G modems.However, basebands and modems are not the only aspects that define 5G wireless communication. The stability and high-quality signals of a 5G smartphone also depend on other critical components such as RF transceivers (射频收发器) and RF front ends and antennas (天线) . These components are largely dominated by four US high-tech giants—Qualcomm, Avago Technologies, Ansem and Qorvo—which account for a surprising global market share.Huawei has faced significant challenges in getting critical components because of the sanctions imposed by the United States which are primarily responsible for the inability of the Chinese company to launch 5G smartphones in the past three years. However, Mate 60 Pro, despite not being labeled a 5G device, exhibits mobile network speeds comparable to Apple’s latest 5G-enabled devices, offering a stable communication experience. This suggests Huawei has, over the past three years, overcome the 5G development and production limits due to the US sanctions by cooperating with domestic partners, and establishing an independent and controllable stable supply chain.Considering that Huawei has not explicitly marketed this device as a 5G smartphone, it is possible that it is yet to fully overcome some key core technological and componential shortcomings. For the time being, we can consider Huawei’s Mate 60 Pro as 4.99G. But when combined with the satellite communication capabilities of Mate 60 Pro, it is clear Huawei has been trying to find more advanced wireless communication solutions for smartphones and making significant progress in this attempt. This should be recognized as a remarkable endeavor, even a breakthrough.12．What do the underlined words “on par with” mean in Paragraph 1?A. as poor as.B. as good as.C. worse than.D. better than.13．Why was it tough for Huawei to develop a 5G smartphone three years ago?A. Its system design and fields needed to be updated.B. It only focused on the commercialization of 5G technology.C. It was unwilling to cooperate with high-tech giants in America.D. It lacked critical components mainly controlled by US high-tech giants.14．What does Paragraph 4 centre on?A. The US sanctions.B. Critical components.C. Apple’s latest 5G-enabled devices.D. Progress in Mate 60 Pro.15．What is the text mainly about?A. Huawei faced with significant challengesB. Huawei’s Mate 60 Pro—a 5G smartphoneC. Huaw ei’s Mate 60 Pro—a remarkable breakthroughD. Huawei leading in global 5G communication equipment二、七选五16．Professor Zhu Yunxia, an award-winning researcher and educator at the University of Queensland and has an international reputation in cross-cultural management and strategy,believes that anyone can learn to overcome cultural barriers with the right approach. She offers the following suggestions.Be prepared for surprises.One country might contain different cultures—China, for example, is composed of 56 ethnic groups—and within these, people may act in different ways in different contexts and with different groups of people. ①_________②_________While speaking the language is not necessary to understand the culture, it is important to know basic greetings and courtesies (客气话) for social interaction such as “hello” and “thank you”. These everyday phrases and rituals (礼节) are entry points which allow you to access the culture. People will also appreciate that you have made the effort.Learn to “make strange”.In day-to-day life, we tend to take many of our own customs and behaviors for granted without recognizing that these might appear odd from others’ point of view. ③_________ Use a “cultural bridge”.The customs of another culture can be too strange or too foreign to understand. ④_________ “Cultural bridges” are people whose knowledge enriches our own and who can help us understand what’s going on. Having arrived a s a Chinese student, Dr. Zhu has spent over 20 years in Australia but still sometimes seeks a second opinion from her daughter who was brought up here and occasionally calls up old friends for advice in China.Don’t focus on yourself.⑤_________ Instead of giving in to thoughts such as “I’m a stranger in a foreign land” or “Nobody talks to me”, try to forget yourself and focus on others. By taking a more positive approach, you can even find ways to use cultural differences to your advantage.A. Learn the“cultural grammar”.B. Consequently, wait for the unexpected.C. Develop and expand cooperative awareness.D. Sometimes an “insider” can help us to bridge the gap.E. Be open-minded and always try to aim for a win-win situation.F. Being too self-conscious can harm your ability to interact and learn.G. Learn to look at situations with fresh eyes, starting with our own culture.三、完形填空（15空）Julia, a 27-year-old TikTok user from Chicago, has been making dresses that hergrandmother designed at fashion school to share on the platform.According to Julia, her grandma, Georgie, went to fashion school in the 1940s and dreamed of being a fashion designer, but 1 before completing her studies because she needed to 2 some sick family members.One day in 2021, when Julia was visiting her grandma, 3 old sketches (草图) of dresses that Georgie designed when she was a teenager, she thought they were 4 .“I knew my grandma was 5 , but these are really much better than what I was 6 in my head.

She’s an admired kindergarten educator for whom teaching is a mission. She believes that self-respect and strong relationships are the real building blocks of educational development and the path to self-actualization in life. And Philipps, known as Cool Miss P, continues to win hearts on social media, as well as in the classroom, with millions of views on TikTok and Instagram.Philipps, from Georgia, in the US, is on a mission to put self-respect into the little ones she works with. She has hung a mirror on her classroom door so the children can practice daily “mirror affirmations (肯定)” as she enthusiastically encourages them to “be the best that you can be”.Since she was young, Philipps was told by people around her that her love for children would make her a great teacher one day. She was also inspired by several of her own teachers. Then a serious accident last year made her feel grateful for living and encouraged her to bring joy into her classroom. She tries to make sure that her students are happy by putting her heart into developing the teacher-student relationship.Philipps shares one of her Instagram posts: “I am sticking to my purpose. I am a teacher, working to impact, inspire, and elevate all of these precious little lives. For young kids, positive affirmations can help make them feel capable of doing more ‘big kid’ things. They can also help increase kids’ self-respect and make them more resilient (有承受力) to bullying and other negative life situations.”Cool Miss P puts this idea into action each and every school day to inspire all her young students. So it’s not surprising that so many people viewing her posts leave comments saying that the world needs more teachers like her.4．Why does Philipps hang a mirror on her classroom door?A．To raise students’ confidence.B．To decorate the classroom.C．To light the classroom.D．To check students’ appearance. 5．What did Philipps decide to do after the accident?A．Ask previous teachers for advice.B．Strengthen connection with students.C．Carry out teaching outside the classroom.D．Attract people’s attention to early education.6．What is the impact of her positive affirmations for children?A．They will be in an easier situation.B．They will submit to bullying on campus.C．They can deal with challenges positively.D．They will feel less hesitant to ask for help.7．What is people’s attitude towards Philipps’s practice in teaching?A．Approving.B．Indifferent.C．Unclear.D．Doubtful.Today’s Brussels sprouts (孢子甘蓝) taste better than you might remember from childhood, and that is because a new variety has replaced the original vegetable. You can thank plant breeders (植物育种家) for the change. Modern breeders, armed with new gene-editing technology, are looking to reproduce Brussels sprouts’ reinvention.In the late 1990s, scientists discovered specific chemicals which made Brussels sprouts taste bitter. Plant breeders started growing old seeds, previously abandoned due to poor yields (产量), to look for tastier versions with lower levels of these specific chemicals. Then they crossed these delicious but low-yield plants with high-yield individuals until they found a version that made plenty of tasty sprouts, transforming the vegetable from a bitter pill into a popular dish.But other vegetables haven’t fared as well. That’s because most breeding decisions favor plant traits that matter to vegetable growers, not vegetable eaters. For instance, disease resistance is probably the major focus these days of most breeding programs because that prevents the farmer from growing the crop. The taste of vegetables is ignored.People, however, are now becoming interested in prioritizing the taste of vegetables thanks in part to new genetic technology such as the gene-snipping technique CRISPR and DNA sequencing which is cheap enough to use widely. “There’s never been a better time tobe a fruit breeder or a vegetable breeder because we have more tools and techniques,” says Susan Brown, an apple breeder at Cornell University.Some companies are beginning to use those tools to deal with the challenge of developing tastier vegetables. One company, Pairwise, is fighting the same compounds that troubled Brussels sprouts: glucosinolates. But this time researchers are improving the flavor of salad greens.All vegetable growers hope that more flavorful products on store shelves will convince people to consume the recommended allowances (推荐量) of fruits and vegetables — and do so better than decades of nutritional guidance have. “Don’t waste your time talking about trying to educate people to eat better,” said Harry Klee, a professor who specializes in tomato breeding. “Just give them products that taste better and that they want to eat.”8．Why did plant breeders grow old Brussels sprout seeds?A．To find out why Brussels sprouts are bitter.B．To find the less bitter versions of Brussels sprouts.C．To study the specific chemicals of Brussels sprouts.D．To select high-yielding versions of Brussels sprouts.9．What does the underlined word “fared” in paragraph 3 mean?A．Profited B．Emerged.C．Survived.D．Succeeded. 10．What can we learn from Susan Brown’s words in paragraph 4?A．Fruit and vegetable breeding techniques are booming.B．Fruit and vegetable breeding techniques need no further improvement.C．Fruit and vegetable breeders are struggling to develop new species.D．Fruit and vegetable breeders should develop new genetic technology.11．Which is the best way to get people to eat more fruits and vegetables according to Harry Klee?A．Enhancing the taste of vegetables and fruits.B．Making vegetables and fruits more affordable for people.C．Improving the nutritional content of vegetables and fruits.D．Educating people about the benefits of vegetables and fruits.The idea that the normal human body temperature is about 37℃ was first presented by the German physician Carl Reinhold August Wunderlich in 1851. Since then, it’s become sowidely accepted that it serves as a touchstone for health—a diagnostic tool used by physicians and parents as a basic indicator of whether someone is sick or well. However, it turns out that this well-established fact isn’t, in fact, correct—or, to put it more accurately, human beings have been getting cooler over the years.Recent studies have shown that temperature records of groups of people have tended to run low compared to the accepted norm (标准), so the Stanford team, led by Julie Par-sonnet,MD, professor of medicine and of health research and policy, decided to do a more in-depth study to compare modern measurements with historical records to try to identify body temperature trends and, perhaps, uncover the reason why this cooling is happening.For their research, the Stanford team looked at three distinct data sets from two historical periods. After going through 677,423 temperature measurements, the team found that men born in the 21st century had an average body temperature of 0.6℃ lower than that of those born in the early 19th century while modern women showed an average decrease of 0.03℃ compared to those born in the 1890s.As to why this is happening, the researchers say that the most likely mechanism is a reduction in the human metabolic rate (代谢率) due to environmental factors: One possibility is that improvements in public health over 200 years have reduced the incidence of inflammations (炎症),which promote metabolism. This combined with people living more comfortable lives in more stable environments means that the body doesn’t have to work as hard to stay warm, so the average temperature falls.”The environment that we’re living in has changed, including the temperature in our homes, our contact with microorganisms (微生物) and the food that we have access to. All these things mean that although we consider human beings as the same for all of human evolution, we’re not the same. We’re actually changing physiologically,” Parsonnet said. 12．What is Carl Reinhold August Wunderlich’s achievement?A．He set up standards for human health services.B．He predicted trends in human body temperature.C．He first used body temperature as a health indicator.D．He proposed the standard human body temperature.13．What can we learn about the Stanford team’s study?A．It shows women have a lower body temperature than men.B．It proves human body temperature has dropped at a faster rate.C．It compared historical and current human body temperature data.D．It suggested updating the definition of the average body temperature.14．Which of the following is thought to cause the decrease in human body temperature?A．The improved living conditions.B．The contact with other creatures.C．The decline in physically demanding work.D．The adaptation of humans to climate change.15．Which one could be the best title for the text?A．What exactly is normal human body temperature?B．Why does human body temperature need measuring?C．Human body temperature has decreased over the yearsD．Human body temperature changes with the environmentGetting negative feedback never feels good. In fact, it pretty much always sucks. Even though it feels bad, constructive feedback is meant to help us grow and improve. Here are some strategies that can help you use negative feedback constructively, leading to positive change.16 Your instinct may be to get upset or justify yourself instantly, but it’s important to remain as professional as possible in the moment. Even when your criticizer is factually wrong, the response “You’re wrong!” won’t ever be helpful. The key is to listen without planning your reply. Simply nod until the other person has completely finished.Recognize the good intentions. Remember, the people who will give you tough feedback are the people who really care about your success. People who tell you only what they know you want to hear don’t really care about you. 17Don’t let it harm your confidence. Whatever you do, don’t allow negative feedback to destroy your self-esteem. 18 Whatever went wrong won’t define you forever if you apply the feedback constructively and use it to your advantage.Practice self-affirmation. 19 It can be helpful to remind yourself of other aspects of your identity that are not in question to boost your confidence. For example, you could say: “Yes, my team thinks I’m a micromanager, but I can work on that, I am also a nice partner, committed volunteer and talented singer.’’Set actionable goals. It can be helpful to break down the feedback into specific,actionable goals. 20 Set time to outline an action plan and timeline for each of these goals. With this, you can keep track of your progress and hold yourself accountable to your goals.Though negative feedback may be disheartening, take the necessary steps to become an even better version of yourself.A．Avoid reacting defensively.B．Don’t take the feedback personally.C．These can feel easier to work with and give you direction.D．You don’t have to apply every piece of feedback you receive.E．Negative feedback can sometimes make you feel like a failure.F．It’s almost impossible to consistently do everything right all the time.G．So instead of reacting negatively, thank those caring about you to give you honest feedback.二、完形填空Shawn Cheshire rode across the country on her bicycle, depending on Jesse Crandall, aOcean.While their next adventure remains uncertain, Crandall knows that there are no 33 with Cheshire.

2011-2012年上学期兴化市高三英语好题集：阅读理21Do American children still learn handwriting in school? In the age of the keyboard, some people seem to think handwriting lessons are on the way out. 90% of teachers say they are required to teach handwriting. But studies have yet to answer the question of how well they are teaching it. One study published this year found that about three out of every four teachers say they are not prepared to teach handwriting. Some teachers are teaching handwriting by providing instruction for 10and then other teachers who basically teach it for 60 to 70 minutes a day — which really for handwriting is pretty much.Many adults remember learning that way —by copying letters over and over again. Today’ s thinking is that short per iods of practice are better. Many experts also think handwriting should not be taught by itself. Instead, they say it should be used as a way to get students to express ideas. After all, that is why we write.Handwriting involves two skills. One is legibility,_ which means forming the letters so they can be read. The other is fluency — writing without having to think about it. Fluency continues to develop up until high school.But not everyone masters these skills. Teachers commonly report that about one fourth of their kids have poor handwriting. Some people might think handwriting is not important any more because of computers and voice recognition programs.But Steve Graham at Vanderbilt says word processing is rarely done in elementary school, especially in the early years. American children traditionally first learn to print, and then to write in cursive, which connects the letters. But guess what we learned from a spokeswoman for the College Board, which administers the SAT college admission test. More than 75 percent of students choose to print their essay on the test rather than write in cursive.出处：2010广东十校联考体裁：议论文话题：在键盘普及的年代美国的书法教学情况。
