Of all the reasons that explain their loneliness, a large geographical distance between parents and their children is the major one. This phenomenon(现象)is commonly known as “Empty Nest Syndrome”(空巢综合症).In order to search for their chances outside their countries, many young people have gone abroad, leaving their parents behind with no clear idea of when they will return home. Their parents spend their countless lonely days and nights, taking care of themselves, in the hope that someday their children will come back to stay with them. The fact that many young people have gone to Europeanized or Americanized societies makes it impossible that they will hold as tightly to the value of duty as they would have if they had not left their countries. Whatever the case, it has been noticed that the values they hold do not necessarily match what they actually do. This geographical and cultural distance also prevents the grown-up children from providing response(回应)in time for their aged parents living by themselves.The situation in which grown-up children live far away from their aged parents has been described as “distant parent phenomenon “,which is common both in developed countries and developing countries. Our society has not yet been well prepared for” Empty Nest Syndrome”(空巢综合症)69.According to the passage, what can best explain “Empty Nest Syndrome”(空巢综合症)of the oldA. their earlier experience of feeling lonelyB. their poor living conditions in their own countriesC. the geographical distance between parents and childrenD. the common worry about their income70.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.( A )The case for college has been accepted without question for more than a generation. All high school graduates ought to go, says conventional wisdom and statistical evidence, because college will help them earn more money, become “better” people, and learn to be more responsible citizens than those who don’t go.But college has never been able to work its magic for everyone. And now that close to half our high school graduates are attending, those who don’t fit the pattern are becoming mo re numerous, and more obvious. College graduates are selling shoes and driving taxis; college students interfere with each other’s experiments and write false letters of recommendation in the intense competition for admission to graduate school. Other find no stimulation in their studies, and drop out—often encouraged by college administrators.Some observers say the fault is with the young people themselves—they are spoiled and they are expecting too much. But that is a condemnation of the students as a wh ole, and doesn’t explain all campus unhappiness. Others blame the state of the world, and they are partly right. We have been told that young people have to go to college because our economy can’t absorb an army of untrained eighteen-year-olds. But disappointed graduates are learning that it can no longer absorb an army of trained twenty-two-year-olds, either.Some adventuresome educators and watchers have openly begun to suggest that college may not be the best, the proper, the only place for every young person after the completion of high school. We may have been looking at all those surveys and statistics upside down, it seems, and through the rosy glow of our own remembered college experiences. Perhaps college doesn’t make people intelligent, ambitious, happy, liberal, or quick to learn things—may it is just the other way around, and intelligent, ambitious, happy, liberal, quick-learning people are merely the ones who have been attracted to college in the first place. And perhaps all those successful college graduates would have been successful whether they had gone to college or not. This is heresy to those of us who have been brought up to believe that if a little schooling is good, more has to be much better. But contrary evidence is beginning to mount up.56.According to the passage all of the following statements are true EXCEPT ________.A. about half of the high school graduates continue their studies at schoolB. college graduates are believed to be able to earn more moneyC. administrators often encourage college students to drop outD. more and more young people are found unfit for college57. According to the passage, the problems of college education partly originate in the fact that___.A. society cannot provide enough jobs for properly trained graduates.B. High school graduates do not fit the pattern of college education.C. Too many students have to earn their own living.D. College administrators encourage students to drop out.58.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 mean?A.Our college experience proves that those surveys are incorrect.B.The surveys may remind us of our beautiful college experiences.C.The surveys should all be re-examined according to our college experiences.D.Our college experiences may make us misunderstand the results of the surveys.59.What is the main purpose of this passage?A.To argue against the idea that college is the best place for all young people.B.To put forward an idea that college should not be the first choice.C.To value young people’s further education in colleges.D.To persuade young people into working after the completing of high school.( B )Engineering students are supposed to be examples of practicality and rationality, but when it comes to my college education I am an idealist and a fool. In high school I wanted to be an electrical engineer and, of course, any sensible student with my aims would have chosen a college with a large engineering department, famous reputation and lots of good labs and research equipment. But that’s not what I did.I chose to study engineering at a small liberal-arts university that doesn’t even offer a major i n electrical engineering. Obviously, this was not a practical choice; I came here for more noble reasons. I wanted a broad education that would provide me with flexibility and a value system to guide me in my career. I wanted to open my eyes and expand my vision by interacting with people who weren’t studying science or engineering. My parents, teachers and other adults praised me for such a sensible choice. They told me I was wise and mature beyond my 18 years, and I believed them.I headed off to college sure I was going to have an advantage over those students who went to big engineering “factories” where they didn’t care if you have values or were flexible. I was going to be a complete engineer: technical genius and sensitive humanist all in one.N ow I’m not so sure. Somewhere along the way my noble ideals crashed into reality, as all noble ideals eventually do. After three years of struggling to balance math, physics and engineering courses with liberal-arts courses, I have learned there are reasons why few engineering students try to reconcile(协调)engineering with liberal-arts courses in college.The reality that has blocked my path to become the typical successful student is that engineering and the liberal arts simply don’t’ mix as easily as I assumed in high school. Individually they shape a person in very different ways; together they threaten to confuse. The struggle to reconcile the two fields of study is difficult.60. The author chose to study engineering at a small liberal-arts university because he _______.A) wanted to be an example of practicality and rationalityB) intended to be a combination of engineer and humanistC) wanted to coordinate engineering with liberal-arts courses in collegeD) intended to be a sensible student with noble ideals.61. In the eyes of the author, a successful engineering student is expected _______A) to have an excellent academic recordB) to be wise and matureC) to be imaginative with a value system to guide himD) to be a technical genius with a wide vision62. The author’s experience shows that he was _______.A) creative B) ambitious C) unrealistic D) irrational( C )In ancient Egypt, the pharaoh(法老)treated the poor message runner like a prince when he arrived at the palace, if he brought good news. However, if the exhausted runner had the misfortune to bring the pharaohunhappy news, his head was cut off.Shades of that spirit spread over today’s conversations. Once a friend and I packed up some peanut butter and sandwiches for an outing. As we walked light-heartedly out the door, picnic basket in hand, a smiling neighbor looked up at the sky and said, ”Oh boy, bad day for a picnic. The weatherman says it’s going to rain.” I wanted to strike him on the face with the peanut butter and sandwiches. Not for his stupid weather report, for his while Several months ago I was racing to catch a him As I breathlessly put my handful of cash across the Grey hound counter, the sales agent said with a broad smile ,”Oh that bus left five minutes ago.” Dreams of head-cutting!It’s not the news that makes someone angry. It’s the unsympathetic attitude with which it’s the unsympathetic attitude with which it’s delivered. Everyone must give bad news from time to time, and winning professionals do it with the proper attitude. A doctor advising a patient that she needs an operation does it in a caring way. A boss informing an employee he didn’t get the job takes o n a sympathetic tone. Big winners know, when delivering any bad news, they should share the feeling of the receiver.Unfortunately, many people are not aware of this. When you’re tired from a long flight, has a hotel clerk cheerfully said that your room isn’t ready yet? When you had your heart set on the toast beef, has your waiter mainly told you that he just served the last piece? It makes you as traveler or diner want to land your fist right on their unsympathetic faces.Had my neighbor told me of the upcoming rainstorm with sympathy, I would have appreciated his warming .Had the Greyhound salesclerk sympathetically informed me that my bus had already left, I probably would have said, ” Oh, that’s all right I’ll catch the next one.” Big winners, whe n they bear bad news ,deliver bombs with the emotion the bombarded(被轰炸的)person is sure to have.63. In Paragraph 1,the writer tells the story of the pharaoh to ____.A.make a comparison B.introduce a topicC.describe a scene D.offer an argument64. In the writer’s opinion, his neighbor was ___.A.friendly B.warm-hearted C.not considerate D.not helpful65. From “Dreams of head-cutting!”(Paragraph3),we learn that the writer___.A.was mad at the sales agentB.was reminded of the cruel pharaohC.wished that the sales agent would have had dreamsD.dreamed of cutting the sales agent’s head that night.66. What is the main idea of the text?A.Delivering bad news properly is important in communication.B.Helping others sincerely is the key to business success.C.Receiving bad news requires great courage.D.Learning ancient traditions can be useful.Section CDirections:Read the passage carefully. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.My wife and I recently welcomed a child into the world. His only interest right now is keeping us awake 24/7. But one day, he’ll need to learn something about finance. When he does, here are some suggestions.1. You might think you want an expensive car, a fancy watch, and a hu ge house. But you don’t.(67)________________________ You think having expensive stuff will bring it. It almost never does—especially from the people you want to respect and admire you.2. The road to financial regret is paved with debt. Some debt, such as a mortgage, is OK. But most spending that results in debt is the equivalent of a drug: a quick hit of pleasure that wears off, only to drag you down for years to come, limiting your options and keeping you weighed down by the baggage of your past.3. I h ope you’re poor at some point. Not struggling, and not unhappy, of course. But there’s no way to learn the value of money without feeling the power of its scarcity. It teaches you the difference between necessary and desirable. (68) ________________________ These are essential survival skills.4. If you’re like most people, you’ll spend most of your adult life thinking, “Once I’ve saved/earned $X, everything will be great.” Then you’ll hit $X, move the goalposts, and resume chasing your tail. It’s a miserab le cycle. Your goals should be about more than money.5. Don’t stay in a job you hate because you made a career choice at 18. Almost no one knows what he or she wants to do at that age. Many people don’t know what they want until they’re twice that age. (These are the signs you’re in the wrong career.)6. The best thing money buys is to control over your time. (69) ________________________ One day you’ll realize that this freedom is one of the things that makes you truly happy.7. Change your mind when yo u need to. I’ve noticed a tendency for people to think they’ve mastered investing when they’re young. They start investing at age 18 and think they have it all figured out by age 19. They never do.8. Some people are born into families that encourage education; others are from families that are against it. Some are born into flourishing economies; others, into war and poverty. I want you to be successful, and I want you to earn it. But realize that not all success is due to hard work and not all poverty is due to laziness. Keep this in mind when judging people, including yourself.9. Your savings rate has a little to do with how much you earn and a lot to do with how much you spend. I know a dentist who lives paycheck to paycheck, always on the edge of ruin. I know another person who never earned more than $50,000 and saved a fortune. The difference is entirely due to their spending. (70) __________________________.10. Don’t listen to me if you disagree with what I’ve written. The world you grow up in wil l have different values and opportunities than the one I did. More important, you’ll learn best when you disagree with someone and then are forced to learn it yourself. (On the other hand, always listen to your mother.)IV. Summary WritingDirections:Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own words as far as possible.Wearable technology can reportedly tell you a lot more than just the number of calories you’re bur ning or how many steps you’ve walked. That clever smart watch can actually tell that you’re about to get a cold, days before you start feeling poorly. As New Scientist reports , researchers at Stanford University in California have discovered that wearable tech can now detect when you’re about to fall prey to (感染) a frightening winter bug, simply by tracking your vital statics.After monitoring 40 smart watch users for up to two years, the team has demonstrated that the devices can be used to detect the first signs of coming illness. The participants’ pulse and skin temperature were continuously monitored throughout the period, with the scientists nothing that their smart watches recorded unusually higher heart rates and skin temperatures up three days before the volunteers began displaying symptoms of cold or flu.Study leader Michael Snynder said: “ Once these wearable collect enough data to know what your normal baseline readings are, they can get very good at sensing when something goes wrong. We thinks that if your heart rate and skin temperature are elevated for about two hours , there’s a strong chance you’re getting sick.” “ Continuous tracking of your vital signs is more informative than having a doctor measure them over a year and comparing th em with population averages,” he added.The team now hopes to create an algorithm(算法) that will let smart watches notify you whenyou’re about to get sick. Well, at least that might give us the chance to stock up on vitamins and wrap up warm before the germ attack!V. TranslationDirections: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.1. 不管外面发生了什么事,请坐着不要动。

Choose the best answerCan you imagine a life without salt? No, salt is very important to us, and we need salt in our food every day. Without enough salt in the food, you will get ill. Animals need salt, too. They need salt to grow strong and faster. Most of the salt in our country comes from the sea. People dig very big pools and let seawater in. When the sun dries up the water, people can get salt from the ground. The salt is white, clean and beautiful.There are a lot of salt wells in Sichuan Province of China. A salt well is much like a water well. People bring the well water up to the ground and then dry it in big jars over fire. In this way, they get salt.We can also get salt from salt mines. A salt mine may be found under the ground. Some years ago, people in Jiangxi Province found a big salt mine and soon opened it. People there don’t need salt from other places any more.In the northwest of our country, there are a great number of salt lakes. Some of these lakes are very big. The salt in a big lake will be enough for all the people in our country for as long as hundreds of years.58.

Answer the questionsOne day, as two little boys were walking along the road, they overlook a woman carrying a large basket of apples.The boys thought the woman looked very pale and tired; so they said,“Are you going to town? If you are, we will carry your basket.”“Thank you,”replied the woman,“you are very kind: you see I am weak and ill.”Then she told them that she was a widow(寡妇),and had a lame(瘸腿的)son to support.She lived in a cottage three miles away, and was now going to market to sell the apples which grew on the only tree in her little garden. She wanted the money to pay her rent.“We are going to the same way you are,”said the boys.“Let us have the basket.”and they took hold of it, one on each side, and trudged along with merry hearts.The poor widow looked glad, and said that she hoped their mother would not be angry with them.“Oh, no,”they replied,“Our mother has taught us to be kind to everybody, and to be useful in any way that we can.”She then offered to give them a few of the ripest(熟透了的)apples for their trouble.“No, thank you,”said they,“we do not want any pay for what we have done.”When the widow got home, she told her lame son what had happened on the road, and they were both made happier that day by the kindness of the two boys.The other day, I saw a little girl stop and pick up a piece of orange peel, which she threw into the gutter(沟)“Iwish the boys would not throw orange peel on the sidewalk(人行道),”she said.“Someone may tread upon it, and fall.”“That is right, my dear,”I said.“It is a little thing for you to do what you have done, but it shows that you have a thoughtful(考虑周密的)mind and a feeling(富有同情心的)heart.”Perhaps some may say that these are little things.

Sometimes it can even be harmful.Professor Robin Ferner from the University of Birmingham, one of theauthors of the study, found that bad things could happen to people wholaughed too much. He says,” We found people with heartbeat problemswhich had stopped their heart, we found people who had fainted(昏倒),and we found people who’d dislocated the jaws(下巴脱臼).It seems that laughing can be no laughing matter. But it’s not all doom. Professor Ferner says there are benefits to laughing when you want to lose weight, for example. He explains that, “ You use energy when you laugh, you move your diaphragm(横膈膜), you expand your lungs, and both those things can be helpful.”According to the research, laughing for a quarter of an hour can burn up to 40 calories(卡路里), and if you laughed all day you’d use up about 2,000 calories, which is what most people consume i n a day. But don’t do that or you might end up with a painful jaw. Or you might find people looking at you in a funny way.Laughter comes naturally for most of us. Babies begin to laugh at around 3-6 months. So give in to your sense of humor and keep smiling. Life is short anyway.62.According to a paper published by the British Medical Journal, ________.A) laughing is the best medicineB) laughing is always harmfulC) laughing a lot may cause bad thingsD) there’s no benefit to laughing63.

This is b 74 plants can make food from air, water andsunlight. Animals and man cannot make food from air, water and sunlight.Animals g 75 their food by eating plants and other animals. Therefore,animals and man need plants to live. This is why we find that there are somany plants around us. If you look carefully at the plants around you, youwill find that there are two k 76 of plants: flowering plants andnon-flowering plants. Flowering plants can make seeds. The seeds areusually grow in the fruits, so fruits p 77 the seed until they are ripe(成熟的). Some fruits have one seed, some have t 78 or more, and others have many seeds. But a few fruits have no seeds at all. An example of a fruit w 79 seeds is the banana fruit. Most non-flowering plants do not grow from seeds. They grow from spores(胚芽). Spores are very small. Some spores are so small and l 80 that they can float in the air. We may say that spores are quite the same as seeds. When these spores are all on wet and shady places, they usually grow into new plants.D.Read the passage and answer the following questions (阅读短文,回答问题):(共7分)To our surprise, people make a huge amount of rubbish in their daily life. We should save the environment. The following 3 Rs rules may help us.1. ReduceWe can reduce waste by using things wisely. People cut down millions of trees in order to make paper. However, people don’t save paper and waste a lot of paper carelessly. We may have no trees in the near future if we don’t save paper. Besides wasting paper, people also waste other things. They don’t know how to deal with the waste in some big cities. That’s why people need to make waste less.2. ReuseWe should think about how to reuse the used things before we throw them away. The clothes which are too small for you are still usable. We wash our old clothes and give them to the people who can’t afford new clothes. Family members can share the clothes with each other.3. RecycleRecycling some rubbish such as empty cans, plastic bottles and used paper is very easy. We can make some money by recycling it. For example, used plastic bottles can be collected and smashed(粉碎). It can be made into usable plastic things again. So why not try our best to recycle things as many as possible?81.

2019-2020学年上海财经大学附属中学高三英语上学期期中考试试卷及参考答案第一部分阅读(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AConsumer Electronics Show (CES) is a global stage where the world’s next-generation inventions are introduced towards the marketplace, and lots of companies are participating. Here are several of the amazing inventions that were introduced at the showin 2020.August Wi-Fi Smart LockIt's an intelligent door lock to protect your home, and it works on Wi-Fi. The lock doesn’t require any additional hardware to attach to it and can be used with the existing door lock.

It’s a technology that gives the driver the ability to see barriers and blind spots from the driving seat. Four cameras take surrounding pictures so that the driver can see the real-time blind spots and prevent even parking damage too.1.Who is the text mainly intended for?A.The general public.B.The science lovers.C.The electronic companies.D.The college students.2.Which of the following descriptions of Motion pillow is correct?A.It’s intended for all those who can’t sleep well.B.It can help sleepers breathe smoothly.C.It can remove the noise around to help people sleep.D.Its pressure is changed by sleepers themselves.3.What can we infer from the text?A.August Wi-Fi Smart Lock helps improve the safety of homes.B.Ao Air produces fresh air for its users.C.Motion Pillow reduces material to minimize sleeping disturbance.D.Transparent Hood helps make driving safer and easier.BThe beach may seem like an inviting place to run on a cool summer morning, but is running on the sand good for your body? It can be, but it’s important to be aware of the challenges that some beach runners experience before you get ready.Running on the beach can be a good thing. It’s certainly different from running on a track or a pavement. For starters, sand can be a challenge because it has an uneven (不平坦的) surface. As you push off, you’re going to lose some of your push as the sand moves. So, you’re not going to be able to push yourself forward as you would on a track or a pavement. But this unevenness has anupside: It gives your body an extra workout, forcing you to exercise muscles that don’t get as much use during runs on firm surfaces. For example, your feet, ankles and lower back might feel sorer and more tired than usual after a beach run just because the surface is constantly moving and changing step to step.You also might feel sore afterward because beaches tend to slope (倾斜) down to the water. If you’re going for a long run on the beach, you might notice that one side of your body might feel sorer because you’re putting more pressure on it due to the slope.Some beach runners prefer to run barefoot — not wearing anything on feet. However, if you’re not used to barefoot running, start slowly and don’t run long distances at first. That’s because running barefoot uses more different muscles than running with shoes does, and it’s important to strengthen these muscles and adapt your feet. If you want to run barefoot and as long as you run carefully enough into it, go for it!Running on the sand can be a smart choice for you, because running on softer ground surfaces can reducemuscle damage.4. Why is it difficult to run on the beach for starters?A. The soft surface makes people fall over easily.B. People need to run carefully on its smooth surface.C. Running on its uneven surface takes much effort.D. It’s hard to keep one’s balance on its hard surface.5. Which of the following best explains “upside” underlined in Paragraph 2?A. Advantage.B. Reason.C. Character.D. Challenge.6. What’s the author’s attitude to barefoot running?A. Critical.B. Supportive.C. Doubtful.D. Uncaring.7. The passage can probably be found in ______.A. A primary school textbookB. A tourist guideC. A sports magazineD. A scientific reportCWhen girls play with cars, they're serious. It was at primary school that Gu Huijing first became interested in cars after watching some car-themed movies. Born in2004 inShenzhen, Guangdong province, Gu decided to major in automobiles (汽车) when she was in junior high.She's driven by interest, but she is also a realist. “I think the future of the automobile industry is bright because we cannot live without food, clothes, houses and cars,” she said.In April, she won first prize at a competition for vehicle maintenance (车辆维修) in Dongguan city, which drew 33 teams from different cities across the province.“I thought it couldn't be that hard to repair cars when I started to take courses, but I was totally wrong,” Gu said. When she started learning in 2019, she was frequently confused by various problems. “And competition within our school is intense, so I had to work extra hard,” she said.Her teacher once tried to persuade her to give up as she was a sophomore (大二学生), and wasn't as knowledgeable as the seniors, and no women had ever been selected for the competition before. “But I insisted that I would carry on,” she said. Finally, her training and hard work won her the only place to stand for her school at the competition.A woman winning first prize in a vehicle maintenance competition became a hot topic on-line, causing heateddiscussions over gender (性别) and career choices. “Women should not be influenced by old-fashioned thinking, and should do whatever it takes to discover their interests and strengths. There are more possibilities out there,” one netizen wrote.Gu said, “Many people think vehicle maintenance is a job for men. That's wrong. I don't think gender has anything to do with choice of jobs.” “I have a goal and I will work harder to make it happen,” she added. “I will be responsible for my choices.”8. What was a cause of Gu's choosing automobiles as her major?A. The love for automobiles.B. The guidance from her parents.C. The high popularity of automobiles.D. The determination to contribute to society.9. Why did Gu's teacher advise her to quit the competition?A. She lacked the knowledge related to it.B. She had never taken part in a competition before.C. She was unlikely to win the competition.D. Women were not allowed to enter the competition.10. Which of the following best describes Gu Huijing?A. Creative and caring.B. Determined and hard-working.C. Independent and humorous.D. Honest and courageous.11. What would be the best title for the text?A. There Is No End To LearningB. Teenage Girl Wins Car Repair ContestC. Vehicle Maintenance Catches OnD. Taking Challenge Leads To SuccessDRemember when your mom told you not to eat too many candy bars or sweets because they can cause tooth decay (蛀牙)? However, it turns out that chocolate can be moresalutaryto your teeth than you might expect. Recent studies show that chocolate can effectively fight against tooth decay, as if we need another excuse to eat chocolate.Chocolate offers protection like fluoride, a main ingredient in most household toothpastes. Not only doeschocolate protect our teeth, but it can do so very effectively. Studies show that chocolate has compounds that provide strong protection for teeth. One of the compounds in chocolate, CBH, is shown to protect even more effectively than fluoride.Tooth decay happens when bacteria work to turn sugar into acids in our mouth. This is why eating foods with high sugar content can lead to more tooth decay. The compounds in chocolate, however, are anti-bacteria and can fight against bacteria in your mouth. The CBH compound in particular also works to strengthen tooth enamel (牙釉质), andprotects against tooth decay.Does this mean you can cat as much chocolate as you want without worrying about your teeth? It depends on the types of chocolate that you like. The protective effect of chocolate is most effective when you chew on cocoa beans. Of course, this option is not very appealing to; most people. A more tasty option is to choose dark chocolate with little sugar content, ideally no more than 6 to 8 grams per serving. For other types of chocolate with higher sugar content, the effect will be lessened. However, because of the protective compounds, it is still better for your teeth than other sweets and desserts containing the same amount of sugar.12. The word “salutary” in paragraph 1 means?A. Beneficial.B. Harmful.C. Familiar.D. Useless.13. What can we know about the compound CBH in chocolate?A. It can help chocolate cure tooth decay.B. It can effectively stop teeth from decaying.C. It may protect teeth better than toothpastes do.D. It may soon replace most household toothpastes.14. How does chocolate fight tooth decay?A. By breaking down acids.B. By building up compounds.C. By fixing up tooth enamel.D. By fighting against bacteria.15. What's the main idea of the text?A. Chocolate plays the role of toothpaste.B. Chocolate protects against tooth decay.C. Chocolate is the best choice for teeth protection.D. Chocolate is healthier to teeth than other sweets.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

approach to doing sth.做某事的方法。
句意:这位70岁的老人在南方打击犯罪的铁拳方法使其确立了自己的政治名声。
此句是强调句式,所以第二空填that,故选D。
【学法指导】强调句型1.在英语中,我们常用It is/was… who/that结构来突出强调句子的某一成分(一般是句子中主语,宾语或状语)。
在这个句型中,it没有词汇意义,只是引出被强调的成分。
如果被强调的成分是表示人的词,用who或that来连接都可以。
如果是其它成分,则一律用that 来连接。
It is my mother who/that cooks every day.是我的妈妈每天做饭;It was yesterday that Tom passed in the maths exam.是昨天汤姆通过了数学考试。
2.被强调成分是主语,who/that之后的谓语动词应该在人称和数上与原句中的主语保持一致。

I stopped at a gas station about 50 miles from Oklahoma City, where I was planning to stop and visit a friend. While I was standing in line at the checkout, I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas.I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. I stopped and wondered what I should do. A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friend’s. We chatted on the way into the city, and when I got out of the car, the husband gave me his business card.I wrote him and his wife a thank-you note for helping me. Soon afterward, I received a Christmas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In late afternoon I returned to my car and found that I’d left the lights on all day, and the battery was dead. Then I noticed that the Friendly Ford dealership - a shop selling cars - was right next door. I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom.“Just how friendly is Friendly Ford?” I asked and explained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. They would accept no payment, so when I got home, I wrote them a note to say thanks. I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you, and it meant a lot, he said.“Thank you” - two powerful words. They’re easy to say and mean so much.61.

On a teenage website.D. In a college newspaper.(C)A study of English learning problems was carried out among a total of 106 foreign students. It shows that most students considered understanding spoken English to be their biggest problem on arrival. This was followed by speaking. Writing increased as a problem as students discovered difficulties in writing papers that they were now expected to hand in. Reading remained as a significant problem.The information gained helped us in determining where special attention should be paid in our course.Although many students have chosen to join the course with a reasonable motivation (动机), we considered it important to note what seemed to encourage interest. Nearly all the students have experienced some kind of grammar-based English teaching in their own country. To use the same method would be self-defeating because it might reduce motivation, especially if it has failed in the past. Therefore a different method may help because it is different.Variety of activity was also seen as a way of maintaining or increasing motivation. Several years ago we had one timetable that operated throughout, but we soon found that both the students and the teachers lost interest by about halfway through the ten weeks. This led us to a major re-think, so finally we brought it into line with the expressed language needs of the students.68. What is the text mainly about?A. Foreign students have more problems.B. There are many ways to improve English.C. Teaching should meet students’ needs.D. English learning problems should be studied again.69.
