But I stopped myself and asked a question: Does owning a smartphone make my life better, or worse? I decided to try living for a time without a smartphone. So I bought an old, $30 flip phone and began my post-smartphone life.One day after I made the switch, my wife, daughter and I were in Washington visiting a museum. By afternoon, I started acting like a true addict. I used my wife's smartphone to check Gmail. The initial rush of seeing so many unread emails was spoiled ( 破坏) by a work-related message. For the next half-hour or so, I walked around thinking about that message instead of being present at the museum. I was physically there, but my mind was focused on work.The most immediate advantage of not owning a smartphone, I quickly learned, is the ability to immerse( 沉浸) yourself in social situations. Without a smartphone to look at, you don't have much of a choice but to be present, and other people — whether it's a colleague ( 同事) or a stranger on social media — can't enter your life easily at inconvenient times. So I made my short-term experiment permanent.Do I miss Google Maps? Kind of, but I've also discovered that not having it makes driving safer. I now check a map before I leave the house and write down basic directions. This keeps me focused on the road rather than the phone. If I get lost, it's nice to ask people for directions. What about Uber and Lyft? Not having them has encouraged me to ride my bike more, which has been great for my health and saved me hundreds of dollars. On the subject of money: My phone bill is now down to $30 a month. I have no data plan, no expensive phone to make payments on, no apps to buy.1. Why did the author buy the old phone?A. To save money.B. To reduce the risk of losing it.C. To break his smartphone addiction.D. To experience a smartphone-free life.2. What happened to the author at the museum that afternoon?A. He couldn't help accessing the Internet.B. He couldn't send his work-related email.C. He was urged to handle work immediately.D. He was prevented from destroying a work of art.3. What is the last paragraph mainly about?A. The disadvantages of Google Maps.B. The functions of three different apps.C. The benefits of not using a smartphone.D. The difficulties of not having a smartphone.BWhen you think of a national park, you generally picture fresh air and wild animals, right? Well, now you're going to have to add tea shops and something called “the Underground” to your definition (定义), because London, England has signed up to be the first “National Park City.”London was founded by the Romans around 2, 000 years ago and people have continually lived there since then. In all that time, however, nobody had the idea to replace all the parks with big box stores or high buildings, which means London already has a much lower urban density (密度) than most of the world's cities. Nowadays about a third of the city is green space.In July 2019, London announced its willingness to become the world's first National Park City. Now the city is moving toward the goal of achieving 50% green space by the year 2050 by connecting and increasing public parks, greening unused parking lots and the private yards of existing and new houses, and fixing some green roofs on existing buildings.“Encouraged by the aims and values of our rural (乡村的) national parks, the London National Park City is basically about making life better in the capital through both small everyday things and long - term thinking,”Daniel Raven-Ellison, who began the movement to make London a National Park City six years ago, said. “We've been doing that in London for centuries, which is why London is so green.” It's about going further to make the city greener, healthier and wilder; making the city richer in wildlife.London will have a much easier job achieving this type of green transformation ( 转变 ) than more densely-urbanized cities like Paris and New York, which have 10% and 27% green space, respectively. But that doesn't mean it's not possible — the National Park City Foundation hopes to include 25 more cities in addition to London by the year 2025. Glasgow, Scotland and Newcastle upon Tyne in northeast England are both considering becoming National Park Cities.4. What makes London more likely to become a National Park City than other cities?A. Its smaller population.B. Its locals' requirements.C. Its government's strict law.D. Its wider area of green space.5. What does Daniel try to talk about in the fourth paragraph?A. The values of newly-founded parks.B. The importance of his movement.C. The influence of green space on cities.D. The preparation for setting up a movement.6. What would be the best title for the text?A. London is leading the world in park constructionB. London becomes the world's first National Park CityC. London is listed as the world's most-visited cityD. London has built the world's first underground parkCWhen someone asks me what I do first thing in the morning I feel ashamed. Then, I have to shamefully admit that I turn my alarm off on my phone and scroll (滚屏) through WeChat. Before I've even had the chance to brush my teeth or wash my face I'm already right away attracted by whatever people are doing online. And I know it needs to change.But the last time I was asked this question was about two months ago and have I changed my ways? Not even a little bit. We all know how unproductive social media can be. So why is it so easy to get addicted to (沉溺于) a huge mass of pretty pictures, and funny behavior and ideas? And why is it so hard to change? Lisa Lewis, a doctor in Brookline tells me the answer is simple. “It's because the point of these apps is to keep you looking,” she says. “They want you to buy, and get you to follow and like. Their only purpose is to win your attention.”She says you must have a purpose when it comes to using any social media apps. “Don't just go on and scroll,” she explains. “Just like you wouldn't walk up to the refrigera tor and stare at what's inside for no reason, don't do the same with social media.” If social media is reducing your productivity and overall health, Lewis offers these steps:First, set a goal whenever you use a social media app. If you use WeChat to get inspiration to exercise, do that and then get off it. Next, you can use a timer. These days you can set a timer for how many hours a day youspend on social media. Set it and stick to it. And finally, you can create a prize to strengthen the behavior. When you set that timer and stick to it, positively strengthen the behavior with anything from tasty food to things you've been eyeing on Amazon.7. What can we say about the author according to Paragraph 1?A. She is shy about answering others' questions online.B. She cares little about other people's life.C. She works busily early in the morning.D. She is a heavy user of social media.8. Why is it difficult to beat the addiction mentioned in Paragraph 2 according to Lewis?A. The apps are aimed at attracting users.B. Social media are a good way to kill time.C. People want to communicate with friends.D. Online information is key to most people's life.9. Why does Lewis mention the refrigerator?A. To show how attractive social media could be.B. To discuss why social media reduce productivity.C. To explain one should use social media when necessary.D. To prove some content of social media is useful.10. What does the underlined part “the behavior” refer to?A. Drawing inspiration from social media.B. Using social media according to a timer.C. Trying to save money when shopping online.D. Learning to pay no attention to things you badly want.DWhen is a kid not a kid anymore? If you asked my 12-year-old daughter, the magical age would be 13, when you can no longer be considered a “child.” If you asked my 15-year-old niece, the age would be 16, when she will be able to drive a car and get an after-school job. According to the U. S. government, a child officially becomes an adult when they turn 18. That's when they can vote. But even though an 18-year-old starts paying taxes, the government does not consider that person mature enough to buy a beer. Still, even a kid who can buy a beer is not old enough to rent a car.Scientists have learned from a new study that when kids are around 18, their prefrontal cortex, which helps control impulses ( 冲动), solve problems, and organize behavior, is only halfway developed. That's not to say that kids in their late teens and early 20s can't take on these tasks, but it means that it's harder for them to do so — at least until around age 25 or so when this area of the brain fully develops.“What we're really saying is that to have a definition (定义) of when you move from childhood to adulthood looks absurd,” Peter Jones from the University of Cambridge said. “It's a much more nuanced (微妙的) change that takes place over thirty years.”This isn't a news flash for parents who have watched their teens take crazy risks while seeming unable to get their lives together until they're older. But this information throws new light on the way kids without as much support are treated. In the foster (寄养的) care system, once a child turns 18, he can no longer receivestate-backed support. And many people think this is too early for a teen to be on his own, especially a teen who has experienced a painful childhood. Because of this, some foster care advocates (提倡者) think it makes more sense for 25 to be the new legal age of adulthood.11. What does the author want to show us in Paragraph 1?A. Different age groups have different needs.B. Becoming an adult means you can do a lot of things.C. People have different opinions on becoming an adult.D. Children need to learn basic life skills to become an adult.12. What might be the purpose of the study?A. To explain why teenagers are at risk.B. To suggest a way of helping teenagers develop.C. To explore the characteristics of different age groups.D. To discover when the human brain is fully developed.13. What does the underlined word “absurd” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Impossible.B. Invaluable.C. Unreasonable.D. Uninteresting.14. What influence may the study have?A. It may inspire teens to be independent.B. It may allow a 20-year-old to get government support.C. It may drive the government to protect the foster care system.D. It may encourage parents to stop supporting their children at college.四．七选五The age of majority is the age that children become adults by law. This means that they are legally in control of their own actions and decisions. 1. ________ When used this way, the word “majority” means having the necessary number of years to be considered an adult. The opposite is “minority”, which means bein g a minor or child.2. ________ The law in a given place may never actually use the words “age of majority”. The age of majority is a legally fixed age and idea of adulthood which is different in different places. It may not match the actual maturity of a person's body or mind. The age of majority is 18 in most places.3. ________ Once a person reaches the age of majority, there are some things they can do that they could not do before. These may include voting, buying or drinking alcohol and driving cars on public roads. The ages when these things can be done are different.4. ________Even after a person reaches the age of majority, they cannot do whatever they want to immediately. 5.________ For example, the youngest a person is allowed to purchase alcohol is 21 in all U. S. states even though the age of majority is 18 in most states. The age of majority in the Republic of Ireland is 18, but a person must be over 21 years old to stand for election.五．完形填空You could say young Moziah Bridges has a gift for fashion, but it's more than that. He was born in Tennessee on November 13, 2001. When he was very young, he traded bow ties for candies in the school playground. However, Moziah's 1 fashion sense led him to home in on (集中精力于) his gift for 2 , and he started his own company at the age of 9. What he loved most were bow ties.

Sometimes, people finally get hurt.Most problems with friendships come up because people are just too selfish to care about the things that their friends need. They care about their own needs much more, which makes it hard for friendships to work. However, being selfish is part of human nature. A person is put together in order to take care of themselves and their own needs, not necessarily those needs of other people. Even though being selfish is something that all humans are born with, it is something that everyone should be against.The best thing to remember when you are a friend to anyone is that you need to treat your friends the same way that you'd like to be treated(对待). This is wonderful advice for a friendship, because it is really the only way to make sure that you are giving your friends everything you would want to be given in a friendship. Whenever you have a question about how you should treat a friend, it is easy to find an answer simply by asking yourself what you would like your friend to do for you, if he or she was in your shoes.Even if you're always thinking about how you'd like to be treated, and your friends are too, there are problems that come up from time to time in each friendship, and it is important to understand how to deal with these problems so that you can build stronger and healthier friendships. Problems like friends getting boyfriends or girlfriends and not spending enough time with their friends, or even friends finding new friends and leaving old friends behind are problems that will probably come up with one or more of your friendships. It is important to know how to deal with these friend problems so that you can keep your friends and make new ones. No one wants to have a broken friendship.26．This passage mainly talks about ____.A．the importance of friendshipB．the advantages(益处) of friendshipC．the problems of friendshipD．the disadvantages(劣势) of friendship27．According to the writer, problems with friendship may appear when ____. A．one is honest B．one is selfish C．one is open D．one is kind28．According to the passage, the first and most important thing to be other people's friend is ____.A．to treat your friend as you like to beB．to give your friends whatever you haveC．not to hurt your friends' feelingsD．not to think of your own need any more29．What's the purpose of understanding how to deal with friendship problems？A．To have a comfortable life.B．To build stronger and healthier friendships.C．To be treated the way you want.D．To get a boyfriend or girlfriend more quickly.B【2021·四川宜宾高二上学期期末】After having more than a few acquaintances(相识的人) online，it might come a blow to keen social net workers like Barack Obama，or even Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg himself.According to a research，the average person has in fact twice as many online friends as physical ones. Users of social­networking sites have on average 121 online friends as compared with physical ones. The study also claims that people tend to be more open，confident and honest with their virtual friends than their “real〞ones.“For most people，the Internet is a way of keeping in touch with loved ones and friends，but for people who are isolated(隔离的) due to illness，it plays a more vital role，and can often act as a lifeline，〞 says Helen Oxley，a psychologist at Wythenshawe hospital.“People with illnesses often rely on the Internet to facilitate(促进) friendships，since they blog and use networking sites as a way of dealing with their illness. It can foster(培养) a sense of social connection for those who frequently feel isolated，which is important to psychological well­being.〞In wider society，the ways in which friendships are formed are changing，withpeople recognizing that they can develop deep and meaningful connections with others that they’ve never met，and may never meet. About one in 10 people has either met their best friends online，or believes they can make lifelong friends on the Web.The findings highlight how social introductions are also changing. Only five percent would ask for someone’s phone number，while 23 percent are now likely to ask for an email address or a full name with the intention of adding the person to their social network.At the same time，however，a questionnaire completed by 4，427 suggests that 20 percent of parents believe their children’s education is affected by surfing the Net. They think their children are doing poorly at the school due to the amount of time they spend on non­education al websites.30.The underlined word “it〞 in Para 1 most probably refers to ________.A. people spending too much time surfing the NetB. people relying on the Internet to connect with friendsC. people having more virtual friends than real onesD. people making meaningful connections with strangers31. We can infer from the text that________.A. sick people can recover more quickly by surfing the NetB. students get important information onlineC. students who surf the Net always perform not so wellD. people tend to trust their virtual friends more than their real ones32. What percentage of parents believe that the Internet has a bad effect on their children?A. About 5 percent.B. About 20 percent.C. About 10 percent.D. About 23 percent.五、七选五【2021-2021湖北荆州中学高一上学期第一次月考】Friendship is a very beautiful bond(联系) in which no one is big or small, no one is rich or poor, and no one is ugly or beautiful.33 .In friendship there are no terms and conditions, there is no age factor in friendship. Each person has his or her own mind, own views, and own perspectives on life. You can learn a lot from every one of your friends.34 .It is best to have one good friend who accepts you as you are, who bridges gaps and never lets you fall. As the ancient Greek poet Euripides put it, Friends show their love in times of trouble, not in happiness.Be happy and cheerful about your friends' success. 35 .Never be selfish, and always try to give more and expect less. Give whatever you want from your friends, like honesty, love, support and understanding, and never boast to your friends when you are more successfulIf you are looking for a friend who is faultless, you will be friendless 36 .And for a good friendship, we need patience, because patience is the key to everything. A beautiful friendship is like a childhood friendship, free of jealousy and full of love. Children are unaware of bad feelings, where anger can suddenly arise. This is the quality that makes children pure and special. For a good friendship, one needs true love, and children are full of love37 .A.Everybody has flawsB.The best mirror is an old friendC.Friendship means understanding, bonding and helpfulnessD.Ask your new friends questions about themselvesE.That is why they are loved by everyoneF.One good friend is better than thousands of ordinary friendG.Always stand by your friends in every situation寒假训练01 Unit1 Friendship一、单词拼写【答案】6. recovers 8.disagree 9. sculpture 10.symbol二、单句改错【答案】【解析】11.考察代词用法。

寒假练习卷1I.Grammar(A)Joaquin Phoenix took home the best-actor Oscar on Sunday night for his role in“Joker.”In the following lengthy and wide-ranging speech,the actor,45,tackled issues of equality and nature preservation.I’m full of so much gratitude right now.And I do not feel elevated above any of my fellow nominees or anyone in this room___1___we share the same love,the love of film.But I think the greatest gift it’s given me,and many of us in this room,___2___(be)the opportunity to use our voice for the voiceless.And this form of expression has given me the most extraordinary life.I don’t know what I’d be ___3___it.I’ve been thinking a lot about some of the___4___(distress)issues that we are facing collectively.I think at times we’re made___5___(feel),that we champion different causes.But for me,I see commonality.I think,___6___we’re talking about gender inequality or racism or animal rights,we’re talking about the fight against injustice.We’re talking about the fight against the belief that one nation,one race,or one gender or one species has the right to dominate,control and exploit___7___without punishment.I think that we’ve become very disconnected from the natural world,and___8___we’re guilty of is a self-centered world view that we're the center of the universe.And I think we fear the idea of personal change because we think that we have to sacrifice something,but human beings,at our best,are so inventive and creative and original.And I think that when we use love and compassion as our guiding principles,we can create,and implement systems of change___9___are beneficial to all emotional beings and to the environment.Now,I have been,I have been a villain in my life.I’ve been selfish.I’ve been cruel at times,hard to work with,and I’m grateful that I_____10_____(give)a second chance because of the many of you in this room.(B)Young Chinese are rebelling against society through a simple act of resistance:lying down.Examples of the tangping,or“lying flat”,way of life____1____(include)not getting married,not having children,and refusing to work extra hours or to hold a job at all.“I stay at home and sleep and watch television series.Sometimes I go out for walks, read books and just think a lot,”said Daisy Zhang,28,who described herself as“lying flat”for the last two weeks ___2___leaving her job in the film industry in Wuxi.Tangping____3____(emerge)over the last few months as the rallying call of Chinese millennials who have had enough of the rat race.Some compare them to the1950s Beat Generation in the United States.____4____call their behavior a form of nonviolent resistance or“ideological emancipation”from consumerism.Supporters portray it as a rejection of struggle and endless striving.Critics say it is defeatist.“People realize there is no upward mobility,”said Yicheng Wang,a PhD student in political science at Boston University,____5____studies propaganda and popular discourse.It’s a negative acceptance:“My life is like this.It will always be like this.”The term developed after an April post on the Tieba forum where the author,unemployed for the last two years, described a low-effort,low-cost lifestyle that consisted of working just a few months out of the year.“Lying flat is my sophistic movement,”he wrote,referring to the Greek philosopher Diogenes,who was known for living in a barrel.He posted a picture of himself lying in bed in the middle of the day with the curtains_____6_____ (draw).In the following weeks,a“lying flat”group on the online forum Douban surged to9,000members.Internet users identified themselves as“lying flatists”,____7____(post)photos of cats and seals lying supine.But____8____tangping gained popularity,it also drew a level of opprobrium.Nanfang Daily called the philosophy “shameful”.Global Times made light of it describing“lying flat”as“not a serious philosophy”.The Youth League pointed out that young medical workers on the front lines during the pandemic“never chose to lie down.”For Zhang in Wuxi,lying flat is not about giving up or withdrawing from society.“Many people want to lie down because996is too tiring,”she said,referring to the notorious hours common in tech industry,____9____staff are expected to work from9a.m.to9p.m,six days a week.The philosophy is also about giving oneself a break.On Douban, new groups have emerged that support“lying down and then standing up.”Zhang,who is thinking about getting into media,says she has started sending out resumes.“I’m interviewing for jobs while writing a little and looking for direction,____10____nothing too active,”she said.“It’s better than doing nothing.”（C）Ancient Whale Skeleton Holds Clues to Climate ChangeA whale skeleton thought to be up to5000years old has been discovered,almost perfectly preserved,by researchers in Thailand.The skeleton,believed____21____(be)a Bryde’s whale,was found in Samut Sakhon,west of Bangkok. Researchers have excavated(挖掘)80%of the remains and so far have identified nine complete vertebrae(椎骨),five ribs,shoulder blade and fins.The skeleton____22____(measure)12metres,with a skull that is3metres long.The bones will be carbon dated to identify their age,but it is thought that they are____23____3000and5000years old.Bryde’s whales are still found in Thailand’s waters,____24____they are considered a protected species.The whales—which prefer waters above16℃and feed on schooling fish such as anchovies—face threats from fishing equipment____25____tourism.The remains,which were found about12kilometres inland,will help scientists understand the evolution of the species,and track____26____sea levels have changed over thousands of years.Marcus Chua,of the National University of Singapore,said the discovery adds to evidence of“relatively large sea level changes around6000years to3000years ago in the Gulf of Thailand,where the shoreline was up to tens of kilometres inland in comparison to the present coast.”Previously,only marine deposits____27____(contain)small fossilised marine shells or crabs had been found inland,and it was not clear____28____those fossils had been moved by humans,said Chua.“A large subfossil whale dated thousands of years ago near Bangkok would provide strong evidence of where the sea was during that time.”he said.Such evidence is highly relevant,given that the climate crisis is contributing to rising sea levels.“This____29____ certainly bring attention to the issue,and show how and where low-lying areas was flooded,”said Chua.The discovery will also help deepen researchers’understanding of the Bryde’s whale,and other marine life. Alongside the skeleton,researchers found preserved items including shark teeth and shells.“Scientists could also study the deposits____30____(find)at the same level as the whale to reconstruct the biological communities present during that time,and compare them to present day systems,”said Chua.(D)Japan’s Seniors Discover New Way to Stay Young:Competitive Video-gaming Sixty-six-year-old Atsuko Oyama shares a goal____1____(hold)by many people a half-century younger.She wants to get100kills in the first-person shooter video-game“Apex Legends.”E-sports promoters who have seen Japan____2____(fall)behind powerhouses such as the U.S.in video-gamecompetitions think the senior market____3____be the way to catch up.And if the over-65set feels a little more energized after winning over a few rival warriors,so much the better.Japan is the world’s oldest nation,and its efforts to boost the size of its younger population have been mostly unsuccessful.It is,however,at the forefront of initiatives____4____(keep)old people thinking younger.Ms.Oyama,____5____player name is Mama,tried out for the team known as the Matagi Snipers after her daughter saw an ad asking for players.She now practices a couple of hours a day at home,sometimes going to acupuncture(针灸)to take care of her tired neck.The Matagi Snipers,named for a traditional group of bear hunters in northern Japan,____6____(practice)since September at their home base in northern Akita prefecture.____7____an average age of68,the14-person team hopes eventually to compete in professional tournaments in first-person shooter titles such as“Apex Legends,”from Electronic Arts Inc.,and Epic Games Inc.’s“Fortnite.”Before they can gun for prize money or monetize YouTube page views,they need to heed the guidance of coach Yoshito“Lemon”Suda,28.Some members,to his surprise,didn’t know____8____to use a computer,let alone play a video-game.“For the first month,it was more like a gathering of some good friends,”Mr.Suda said.“I had to give them a pep talk and tell them,‘You’re not here for that.You’re going to be professional.’”The members took it to heart,he said,and now he sees some online playing at midnight.Mr.Suda begins each practice session with a lecture.After the lecture,it was time to play.Masashi“K”Shinoda,69, was having a hard time____9____(sense)the presence of enemies.Coach Lemon motivates his team by telling them age is an advantage.“There is a huge difference in social experience between people who have lived only20years versus60years,”he said.Younger players tend to be more violent____10____older players can communicate better and lean on teamwork.(E)Machines are once again doing the car-washing in BritainWarm weather is to ice-cream vans_____1_____popcorn is to dentists,Saharan dust storms are to car washes.A big dust cloud like the one_____2_____reached Britain on March16th boosts revenues by about a quarter,according to Kevin Pay of Wilcomatic,which runs about800automatic car washes in Britain.“You love to see it,”he says,as a dusty red Ford Ka joins the queue in Hove in East Sussex,on the south coast.Until recently Britain’s drivers usually took their dirty motors to car parks and disused petrol stations,_____3_____ eastern European immigrants had them washed with sponges.In2018,a parliamentary committee was informed that Britain had10,000—20,000hand car washes,_____4_____(compare)with2,000automatic“rollover”machines and about4,000do-it-yourself jet washes.Hand car washes were_____5_____(convenient)—drivers simply handed money through the window rather than traipsing into a petrol station to buy a six-digit code-and often cheaper than machines. The industry_____6_____be a rare example of de-automation.It is now re-automating.Automatic car washes and jet washes have improved,_____7_____contactless payment, superior brushes and theatrical foam.But the main reason for their popularity is that hand car washes _____8_____(disappear).The informal ones can be inferior employers:in2016a study of Leicester by two academics, Ian Clark and Trevor Colling,found that many paid less than the legal minimum wage.Car washing is a typical first job for an unskilled immigrant.And Brexit means that Britain has fewer newly arrived unskilled

more,was nearly wiped out in the United States14years ago by the universal use of the MMR vaccine(疫苗).But the disease is making a comeback, caused by a growing anti-vaccine movement and misinformation that is spreading quickly.Already this year,115 measles cases have been reported in the USA,compared with189for all of last year.The numbers might sound small,but they are the leading edge of a dangerous trend.When vaccination rates are very high,as they still are in the nation as a whole,everyone is protected.This is called“herd immunity”,which protects the people who get hurt easily,including those who can’t be vaccinated for medical reasons,babies too young to get vaccinated and people on whom the vaccine doesn’t work.But herd immunity works only when nearly the whole herd joins in.When some refuse vaccination and seek a free ride,immunity breaks down and everyone is in even bigger danger.That’s exactly what is happening in small neighborhoods around the country from Orange County,California, where22measles cases were reported this month,to Brooklyn,N.Y.,where a17-year-old caused an outbreak last year.The resistance to vaccine has continued for decades,and it is driven by a real but very small risk.Those who refuse to take that risk selfishly make others suffer.Making things worse are state laws that make it too easy to opt out of what are supposed to be required vaccines for all children entering kindergarten.Seventeen states allow parents to get an exemption（豁免),sometimes just by signing a paper saying they personally object to a vaccine.Now,several states are moving to tighten laws by adding new regulations for opting out.But no one does enough to limit exemptions.Parents ought to be able to opt out only for limited medical or religious reasons.But personal opinions?Not good enough.Everyone enjoys the life-saving benefits vaccines provide,but they’ll exist only as long as everyone shares in the risks.56．The first two paragraphs suggest that__________.A．a small number of measles cases can start a dangerous trendB．the outbreak of measles attracts the public attentionC．anti-vaccine movement has its medical reasonsD．information about measles spreads quickly57．Herd immunity works well when__________.A．exemptions are allowed B．several vaccines are used togetherC．the whole neighborhood is involved in D．new regulations are added to the state laws 58．What is the main reason for the comeback of measles?A．The overuse of vaccine.B．The lack of medical care.C．The features of measles itself.D．The vaccine opt-outs of some people. 59．What is the purpose of the passage?A．To introduce the idea of exemption.B．To discuss methods to cure measles.C．To stress the importance of vaccination.D．To appeal for equal rights in medical treatment.(B)Suppose you’re in a rush,feeling tired,not paying attention to your screen,and you send an email that could get you in trouble.Realisation will probably set in seconds after you’ve clicked“send”.You freeze in horrors and burn with shame.What to do?Here are four common email accidents,and how to recover.Clicking“send”too soonDon’t waste your time trying to find out if the receivers has read it yet.Write another email as swiftly as you can and send it with a brief explaining that this is the correct version and the previous version should be ignored.Writing the wrong timeThe sooner you notice,the better.Respond quickly and briefly,apologizing for your mistake.Keep the tone measured:don’t handle it too lightly,as people can be offended,especially if your error suggests a misunderstanding of their culture(i.e.incorrect ordering of Chinese names).Clicking“reply all”unintentionallyYou accidentally reveal to entire company what menu choices you would prefer at the staff Christmas dinner,or what holiday you’d like to take.In this instance,the best solution is to send a quick,light-hearted apology to explain your awkwardness.But it can quickly rise to something worse,when everyone starts hitting“reply all”to join in a long and unpleasant conversation.In this instance,step away from your keyboard to allow everyone to calm down. Sending an offensive message to its subject.The most awkward email mistake is usually committed in anger.You write an unkind message about someone, intending to send it to a friend,but accidentally send it to the person you’re discussing.In that case,ask to speak in person as soon as possible and say sorry.Explain your frustrations calmly and sensibly—see it as an opportunity to clear up any difficulties you may have with this person.60.If you have written the wrong name in an email,it is best to_______.A.apologise in a serious mannerB.tell the receiver to ignore the errorC.learn to write the name correctlyD.send a short notice to everyone61.What should you do when an unpleasant conversation is started by your“reply all”email?A.Try offering other choices.B.Avoid further involvement.C.Meet other staff members.D.Make a light-hearted apology.62.What is the passage mainly about?A.Defining email errors.B.Reducing email mistakes.C.Handling email accidents.D.Improving email writing.(C)Discoveries in science and technology are thought by“untaught minds”to come in blinding flashes or as the result of dramatic accidents.Sir Alexander Fleming did not,as legend would have it,look at the mold(霉)on a piece of cheese and get the idea for penicillin there and then.He experimented with antibacterial substances for nine years before he made his discovery.Inventions and innovations almost always come out of tough trial and error.Innovation is like soccer; even the best players miss the goal and have their shots blocked much more frequently than they score.The point is that the players who score most are the ones who take most shots at the goal—and so it goes with innovation in any field of activity.The prime difference between innovation and others is one of approach.Everybody gets ideas,but innovators work consciously on theirs,and they follow them through until they prove practicable or otherwise.What ordinary people see as fanciful abstractions,professional innovators see as solid possibilities.“Creative thinking may mean simply the realization that there’s no particular goodness in doing things the way they have always been done.”Wrote Rudolph Flesch,a language authority.This accounts for our reaction to seemingly simple innovations like plastic garbage bags and suitcases on wheels that make life more convenient:“How come nobody thought of that before?”The creative approach begins with the proposal that nothing be as it appears.Innovators will not accept that there is only one way to do anything.Faced with getting from A to B,the average person will automatically set out on the best-known and apparently simplest route.The innovator will search for alternate courses,which may prove easier in the long run and are sure to be more interesting and challenging even if they lead to dead ends.Highly creative individuals really do march to a different drummer.63.What does the author probably mean by“untaught mind”in the first paragraph?A.An individual who often comes up with new ideas by accident.B.A person who has had no education.C.A citizen of a society that restricts personal creativity.D.A person ignorant of the hard work involved in experimentation.64.According to the author,what differs innovators from non-innovators?A.The way they present their findings.B.The way they deal with problems.C.The intelligence they possess.D.The variety of ideas they have.65.The phrase“march to a different drumme r”(the last paragraph)suggests that highly creative individuals are_____.A.unwilling to follow common ways of doing thingsB.diligent in pursuing their goalsC.concerned about the advance of societyD.devoted to the progress of science66.The most suitable title for this passage might be________.A.The Relation Between Creation and DiligenceB.To Be a Creative Expert in the Study of Human CreativityC.What Are So Special about Creative IndividualsD.Discoveries and InnovationA.So if they’re not building by imitation or carrying out instructions,how is this knowledge getting passed around?B.Crafting tool is a kind of culture,which can be passed down from generation to generation by crows.C.However,the crows only got treats when they popped in a paper“coin”of a certain size.D.These birds,native to the islands of New Caledonia east of Australia,are known for their ability to craft tools.E.Seeing this in action is important because it supports the idea that New Caledonian crows are capable of building—at least when it comes to crafting tools.F.Jelbert and her team then gave the crows paper to let them cut into proper size.There’s no denying crows are smart.They can remember where food has been hidden,recognize faces and craft tools.And,according to a new paper in Scientific Reports,some crows can even make those tools from memory.This skill may point to these clever corvids having a sort of culture of their own.Researchers,led by Sarah Jelbert at the University of Cambridge,worked specifically with New Caledonian crows. _____67_____But experts haven’t been able to make sure where the crows pick up their skills.A bird in one area can construct the same tool as another bird miles away—but there’s no evidence bird one watched bird two build the gadget in order to copy it.And New Caledonian crows don’t really have a language,either._____68_____Jelbert and her team had a hunch(预感)that it was because the birds were building based on the memory of tools they’d seen.To test this,the group trained eight crows to place pieces of paper into a pseudo-vending machine(really just a wooden box)to get a treat._____69_____Once they learned which sizes were rewarded,Jelbert and her team then gave the feathered participants large cards;the birds could fashion these into the coin sizes they’d picked up on earlier. Importantly,the crows didn’t get any sort of template(模板)when they were working with the big cards.And the birds snipped them into pieces that were similar in size to the coins they’d learned would get them treats.Given the lack of a template to copy,it seems the crows were able to construct mental images of the coins and use it to replicate a tool.______70_____These birds can see something and not just build it from memory,but potentially make improvements in their designs.“Most importantly,”the authors say in the study,“an improvement made by a crow during its lifetime could become part of the template learnt by subsequent generations,leading to an increase in tool complexity over time.”And this progression is a key component of cultural progression.Jelbert and her team recognize there’s still work to be done to see if their hypothesis is solid,like testing how long the crows can remember their mental images of the tools.III.Summary WritingAre your children getting on your last nerve?Did a coworker’s comment rub you the wrong way?There’s no need to plug the steam coming out of your ears.In fact,science now gives you full permission to release those emotions;you might actually be happier for it.If that seems counterintuitive(违反直觉的),hear us out.A new study suggests that people tend to be happier if they can feel and express emotions as they want.That goes for unpleasant emotions like anger and hatred,too.An international team of researchers recruited2,300university students from the United States,Brazil,China, Germany,Ghana,Israel,Poland,and Singapore.They then asked the participants to tell them which emotions they desired and which ones they actually felt,and then compared those responses to how the participants rated their overall happiness or life satisfaction.The results showed an interesting trend.While participants wanted to experience more pleasant emotions,they reported higher life satisfaction if the emotions they experienced matched those they desired.More surprising still,11 percent of people wanted to feel less of positive emotions,such as love and empathy,and10percent of people wanted to feel more negative emotions,such as hatred and anger.At first glance,these results might seem confusing.But there’s a simple explanation,according to the study’s authors.Happiness is“more than simply feeling pleasure and avoiding pain,”they write.It is also learning to release negative emotions when you feel them,instead of ignoring them or bottling them up.“If you feel emotions you want to feel,even if they’re unpleasant,then you’re better off,”lead researcher Dr Maya Tamir from The Hebrew University of Jerusalem told the BBC News website.。

2020-2021学年度英语高一寒假作业（一）一、阅读理解（本大题共8小题，共24.0分）AI must have always known reading was very important because the first memories I have as a child are almost about books. There was not one night that I don't remember mom reading me a storybook by my bedside. I was completely inspired by the nice way the words sounded.I always wanted to know what my mom was reading. Hearing mom say, "I can't believe what's written in the newspaper this morning," made me want to take it suddenly out of her hands and read it myself. I wanted to be like my mom and know all of the things she knew. So I carried around a book, and each night, just to be like her, I would pretend(假装) to be reading.This is how everyone learned to read. We would start off with sentences, then paragraphs, and then stories. It seemed an unending journey, but even as a six-year-old girl I realized that knowing how to read could open many doors. When mom said," The C-A-N-D-Y is hidden on the top shelf," I knew where the candy was. My progress in reading raised my curiosity, and I wanted to know everything. I often found myself telling my mom to drive more slowly, so that I could read all of the road signs we passed.Most of my reading through primary, middle and high school was factual reading. I read for knowledge, and to make A's on my tests. Sometimes, I would read a novel that my teacher asked us to, but I didn't enjoy this type of reading. I liked facts, things that happen in real life. I thought anything too general left too much room for argument.Yet, now that I'm growing and the world I once knew as being so simple is becoming more complex, I find myself needing a way to escape. By opening a novel, I can leave behind my worries and enter into a wonderful and mysterious world where I am now a new character. In these worlds I can become anyone. I don't have to write down what happened or what method the author was using when he or she wrote this. I just read to relax.We're taught to read because it's necessary for much of human understanding. Reading is an important part of my life. Reading satisfies my desire to keep learning. And I've found that the possibilities that lie within books are limitless.1.Why did the author want to take the newspaper suddenly out of mom's hands?A. She was eager to know what had happened.B. She wanted mom to read the news to her.C. She couldn’t wait to destroy the newspaper.D. She couldn’t help but stop mom from reading.2.According to Paragraph 3, the author's reading of road signs shows ___________.A. her special way to find a placeB. her eagerness to develop her reading abilityC. her effort to remind mom to respect traffic rulesD. her growing desire to know the world around her.3.The author thinks of novel reading as a way to___________.A. develop a love for learningB. explore a mysterious landC. get away from a confusing worldD. learn about the adult world4.What could be the best title for the passage?A. The Magic of ReadingB. Growing Up with ReadingC. The Pleasure of ReadingD. Reading Makes a Full ManBI stood behind the curtain, my hands shaking. As I listened to the crowd laugh at the host's jokes, I just thought why I believed I could do that. Two months earlier, we had signed up for improv (即兴表演) classes at a local theater.When I first heard about the improv classes, I was torn. I feared getting on stage and performing in front of strangers. However, I knew I wanted to work as a science communicator after finishing my Ph. D., so it seemed like the perfect opportunity to improve my communication ability and gain confidence thinking on my feet.During our first class, we learned the key concept of improv: "yes, and". If someone says that dogs are librarians, for example, then dogs are librarians. We don't question the logic; we say "yes" and continue with the scene as if nothing is wrong. To do this effectively, we wouldn't avoid second-guessing ourselves. The best improv happens when performers stay open to different possibilities. Over time, I started to enjoy our classes. I became better at listening and communicating clearly in the moment.That training came in handy 6 months ago, when I was giving a seminar about my science. I was surprised at a question that didn't grow out of the information I'd presented. Instead of getting flustered, I used that approach, and I found appropriate answers. Early on in graduate school, I would get stuck when my experiments produced unexpected data. But now, I no longer go into an experiment thinking that I already know the story my data are going to tell. Last year, I also got confusing data. Instead of getting discouraged, I kept exploring the data and ended up identifying a new type of cell—one that wasn't behaving as expected. If I hadn't stayed open to the possibility that the results were real, I would have missed the most exciting finding of my Ph. D.5.What did the author expect the improv classes could do?A. Help him know how to think independently.B. Help him rid his fear of appearing on the stage.C. Help him recover from his mental diseases.D. Help him improve his communication skills.6.What is the key approach of improv according to the text?A. Pretending to be clever.B. Communicating with others.C. Accepting what others say.D. Asking others some questions.7.What does the underlined word "flustered" in Paragraph 4 mean?A. Amused.B. Confused.C. Angry.D. Disappointed.8.What could we infer about the author from the text?A. He failed in getting his doctor degree.B. He got stuck after finding unexpected data.C. He found pleasure in exploring scientific data.D. He became confident about his scientific research.二、完形填空（本大题共20小题，共31.0分）One of the easiest things in the world is to become a fault-finder.

I work with V olunteers for Wildlife, a rescue and education organization at Bailey Arboretum in Locust Valley.Trying to help injured, displaced or sick creatures can be heart breaking; survival is never certain. However, when it works, it is simply beautiful.I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown. She had found a young owl (猫头鹰) on the ground. When I arrived, I saw a 2-to 3-week-old owl. It had already been placed in a carrier for safety.I examined the chick (雏鸟) and it seemed fine. If I could locate the nest, I might have been able to put it back, but noluck.

These advertise the presence of chicks to adults; they might also encourage our chick to start calling as well. I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed home to see what news the night might bring.A nervous night to be sure, but sometimes the spirits of nature s mile on us all! The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recordings. I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy and active.

"When you're a twin you always have someone totalk to and have lunch with."In no time we were laughing and talking. Then one of the brothers said, "I'm Nicholas, and this is my brother, Nathaniel. What's your name?"I took a deep breath and said, "I'm Chelsea Chowderhead.""Chowder? Like the soup?" asked Nathaniel."Yes," I replied, looking down."Hey, cool!

Usually taken in the late afternoon, it is also called "low tea" as it is served a t a low table. Since this isn't a meal, but rather like a late afternoon snack, finger foods such as sandwiches, scones and pastries are common. People are taking tea not only to get what their bodies need or satisfy hunger, but to take time to relax, chat and enjoy the company of dear friends. In England, the traditional time for tea is four or five o'clock in the afternoon and no one stays after seven o'clock.This very British tradition is said to have been started in the 1840s by Duchess Anna Maria, wife of the 7th Duke of Bedford, England. During the long time between an early lunch and a very late dinner, she experienced what she called "a sinking feeling" at about 4 or 5 in the afternoon. So she asked her serving girl to bring her a pot of tea, a little bread and butter and cake in her room. She found this arrangement (安排) so pleasing that she began asking her friends to join her.High tea, a term often mixed with afternoon tea, usually takes the place of supper. In the past the British working population did not have afternoon tea. They had meals at about noon and after work between five and seven o'clock. The table would be set with dinner foods like meat, bread, butter, potatoes, cheese and of course tea. It was called M high tea" because it was eaten at a high dining table rather than a low tea table.How much do people enjoy the afternoon tea moment?
