ABI was disheartened recently when I turned on the news to hear a story about a family who is petitioning(请愿) the Hampton School Board to receive out-of-district compensation to place their daughter in an out-of-district school due to racial bullying. I was disheartened because I know that even if this family wins their petition, the root of the problem will still continue.While there are many contributing factors to the rapid increase of the bullying, I believe that the root of this problem lies within the restrictions of schools, or rather the teachers and administrators who allow bullying to happen while feeding the line "We have a no-tolerance policy" to students and parents.This family can move their daughter to a new school where she will feel safe to learn and grow, but they will leave behind the problem of the educators at this school who let the racial bullying happen.My son went to a private school in Concord. He was bullied on the play yard. The administration gave us the "No tolerance" line, but did nothing to stop the bullying or change the climate of the school.We pulled our son out of this school and placed him in another school. This school truly understands how to guide students' acceptance of differences and embrace teachable moments sothat bullying is a non-issue.I truly hope that this family gets the out-of-district placement for their daughter. However,I am doubtful that the school district will address the root of the problem.24. The author felt disheartened probably because _____.A. the family' s petition was turned downB. the daughter of the family was bulliedC. the root of the problem won't be addressedD. the family will receive the compensation if they win25. According to the author, what is the main reason for the bullying increase?A. This problem lies beyond schools.B. The climate of schools is changeable.C. Schools almost do nothing to stop the bullying.D. Students don' t know how to accept differences.26. What does the underlined expression "feeding the line" in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Sending a message.B. Providing food.C. Making criticism.D. Satisfying a desire.27. What happened to the author' s son?A. He asked his parents to place him in another school.B. He was treated in a very unpleasant way in a school.C. He went to a private school in Concord and studied with the girl.D. He attended a school which knew nothing about the "No tolerance" line.【答案】24. C 25. C 26. A 27. BCSupermarket shoppers who buy lots of foods on "two for one" deals are far more likely to be obese(肥胖的) ,a major study suggests.Cancer Research UK found that those with highest consumption of discounted foods were at 50 percent greater risk of obesity, compared with those with low take-up of such deals.The study of more than 16,000 households found almost one in three food and drink items in UK supermarket baskets were bought on promotion. And the discounts were far more likely to be applied to unhealthy foods, with almost half of all chocolate, crisps, popcorn, and savoury snacks bought on promotion.Shoppers whose baskets contained between 40 and 80 percent of goods on special offer were 54 percent more likely to be obese than those with a maximum 20 percent of foods on such deals. Those with highest take-up of the deals bought 30 percent less fruit, and nearly 25 percent fewer vegetables than those shunning the deals.The study follows a government consultation on proposals to ban "buy one, get one free" deals on unhealthy foods and supermarket "guilt lanes" as part of its childhood obesity strategy.One in five children are overweight or obese when they start primary school, rising to around one in three when they leave.Research has found that obesity increases the risk of 13 different types of cancer including bowel and breast disease.Alison Cox, director of cancer prevention at Cancer Research UK, said: " The government' s proposed 9 p. m. ban on junk food ads is a step forward in fighting childhood obesity. Now we want to see restrictions on price promotions for unhealthy food and drink items, as well as those strategically placed at checkouts. This will help families to make healthier choices."There isn't one magic fix for the problem, but getting rid of these encouragements to buy unhealthy food is key to changing it. "28.

But back in 1939 when the film opened, audiences were not particularly fond of it. It was only a modest box office success. It was nominated for Best Picture at that year's Academy Awards, but so were nine other great films. It lost out to Gone with the Wind.The Wizard of Oz really gained an audience when it was broadcast regularly on TV. That began in the 1950s. The film' s plot follows young Dorothy who is knocked unconscious during a tornado. She dreams about following a Yellow Brick Road through the Land of Oz to the Emerald City.

What is it about the film that appeals to people? It includes themes that people can relate to. Through most of the movie Dorothy is trying to get home to Kansas.

Home is the welcoming place where they feel secure.At the beginning of the film, Dorothy sings of a place " over the rainbow. " There, the dreams that you dare to dream really do come true. So while home is a great place, dreaming about something different is all right too.The Wizard of Oz also deals with courage. Dorothy learns that true courage isn't being unafraid. It' s facing danger when you are afraid. Her friends face plenty of danger to rescue her.As one of the true classics of American literature, The Wizard of Oz has stirred the imagination of young and old alike for over four generations.

Thepresence of water raises the chances of finding life on the red planet.The discovery isbased on observations by a European spacecraft. It has excited experts.Water is necessaryfor life, andscientists have long hoped to prove that it is present on Mars.Cassie Stuurman is a geophysicist at the University of Texas.In 2016,she found evidence ofa huge ice depositonMars. “Ifthese researchers are right, this is the first time we’ve foundevidence of a large water body onMars. ”Stuurman said. Researchers are not yet sure how deepthe area of water is. So, they cannot say whether it is anunderground pool, or just an area of soft and wet soil.In order to find the water, Italian researchers examined radarsignals. Thesignals were collected over three years by the European Space Agency’s MarsExpress spacecraft. The results suggest that a 20-kilometer-wide water body liesbelow ice that is 1.5 kilometers thick. They believe the area is close to theplanet’s southern pole.Mars is very cold, but salt in the water may have kept itfrom freezing. Itis the same as when you put salt on a road to prevent ice from forming.The water would beextremely cold, rightat the point where it’s about to freeze.

They inserted newer and supposedly moreuseful words describing the digital fields that young people in habittoday.Thus they say go odbye to “acorn”,but say hello to “attachment”.“Beech” and “bluebell”come out of the dictionary. While “blog” and “broadband” come intoit. Andthey say farewell to “catkin” and “cowslip” because here come “celebrity” and “chatroom”.It’s possible, of cour se, that those Oxford editors had a goodreason for their vocabular cleansing. Perhaps they had read the CambridgeUniversity study revealing that most young children can identify Pokémonspecies far more easily than they canname real-life sparrows.But is this simply another fight in the language war,an ongoing battle betweenpeople? Some people argue that a dictionary should model howlanguage worksbest, whilesome people insist that it should capture how language works now.In Britain,some citizens feltjustified in fighting back against the decision of the Oxford editors.The protest of thethinning of the word herd almost immediately attracted more than200,000 signatures.Susie Dent, author of Modern Tribes：The Secret Languages of Britain,is doing everything in her power to guarantee “the old markers of time”. “Fortnight”is amongher cherished favorites.Thanks to them, I can now show off my knowledge that a “snollygoster”is a “shrewd person, especially a politician”.（1）Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “inhabit” in paragraph 1?A .

This would mean that she always felt that she was protected and would always have money if she really needed it.When I was married in 1970 my husband who had heard this story, obtained a 1937 crown coin for me and I have always kept it in my wallet, and I have always had enough for my needs.A friend recently fell on hard times, partly through external (外部的）circumstances and partly through poor planning. Friends and I have loaned her money, paid her bills, given her food, and even tried to teach her budget techniques, but none of them has been a solution. She has just slipped deeper and deeper into financial trouble and depression.Last week she looked pale and unwell, very depressed and hopeless, very sad for a friend to see and I then thought about how the crown coin, a physical reminder of another’s care and love had protected me, so I went to the bank for a $ 100 dollar-bill.I told my friend the story and asked her to keep the $ 100 in the back of her wallet. It turned out that she didn’t havea wallet, so she put the money in a little pencil case where she kept her coins. She immediately felt better—“I feel rich, and thank you for being a good friend,” she said, and we were both a bit teary.I went home and remembered a little wallet I had that I’d never used, and thought, “I’ll give that to my friend.” I opened it, and inside, found $ 100.25. What di d the 1937 crown coin from the author’s father mean to her mother?A. His concern for her.B. His pity and protection for her.C. His care and love for her.D. His pride and respect for her.26. Where did the author’s friend keep the $ 100 dollar-bill?A. In the back of her wallet.B. In a little pencil case.C. In the pocket of her raincoat.D. In the layer of her suitcase.27. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. The author became rich all of a sudden.B. The author’s friend would receive a wa llet as a gift.C. The author’s friend was not touched by her story.D. The author felt uncomfortable when receiving the bill.28. What can be the best title for the text?A. A crown coinB. The help to a friendC. A hard lifeD. A gift from my fatherCIn China, chain restaurants — especially the big multinational ones — are cool. Going to Starbucks, for example, is a status symbol. It not only says, “I’m rich enough to buy this overpriced coffee,” but also, “I’m cosmopolitan （见多识广的）enough to be part of globalization.”Where I come from in the UK，however，chains are neither fashionable nor gourmet（美食的）. Chains are where you go on New Year’s Day when nowhere else is open，or when you are 5 years old and your parents can’t stand hearing “I’m huuungry!” any lon ger. In my own case (with regards to McDonald’s), a chain is where you are taken on your first “date”. Even at the age of 13, I knew to give the guy the “let’s just be friends” phone call the next day.In the UK, independent cafes and restaurants are making a comeback on the fashion scene. Nowadays, a Londoner who says “let’s meet for a coffee at Monmouth” (an independent café) is much cooler than one who says “let’s go to Starbucks”. Even if Monmouth’s coffee is a little more expensive, there’s a satisfaction in knowing your pounds aren’t going straight to the big corporations.Of course, there are chain stores all over the UK; you can’t go five minutes without spotting a Costa Coffee. But numbers do not add up to good taste.I do, however, have a confession (坦白). After moving to China I had moments when all the rice and Kung Pao Chicken became too much. I, too, have retreated to McDonald’s.29. Many Chinese people like to go to multinational chain restaurants because ______.A. the restaurants give customers a taste of foreign cultureB. the restaurants offer different food and drinks from other restaurantsC. they believe that eating there will show their wealth and social statusD. these restaurants are perfect places for a romantic date30. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The author has grown tired of Chinese food.B. Branches of Monmouth’s cafe can be found all over the UK.C. Most independent stores are closed on New Year’s Day in the UK.D. It is cool in the UK to take your first date to a chain restaurant.31. We can infer from the article that ______.A. the author doesn’t like food from Pizza HutB. the author doesn’t like to follow fashion trendsC. many Britons think that numbers mean poor qualityD. many Britons don’t like big co rporationsDDarwin noted that some human emotional expressions might have started as part of a physiological function: for example, exposing the teeth to bite food. The function, however, took on meaning and became a form of communication which signals anger.The same may be true for the animals. Baby monkeys cry for attention. They also cry to signal to an adult that they want to be carried.“Chimpanzees do make upset voice when they are being weaned (断奶) by their mothers or have lost their mothers or ano ther individual,” says Anne Pusey, a professor at the University of Minnesota. “They whimper (呜咽) and cry and scream. When we hear these calls, the emotion involved seems obvious. However, they do not weep in the sense of producing tears. I have seen an adolescent male whimpering when he lost sight of his older brother with whom he had been traveling.”Babies of many mammalian species, including rats, cry. Moreover, when a baby rat cries, often his mother brings the fallen pup back into the nest. This is probably a straightforward communication, as it is with humans. However, psychologists at the University of Iowa aren’t convinced.The Iowan researchers can cause the same crying sounds by producing large decreases and then increases in blood flow. The blood flow also goes down when baby rats get cold. Thus, they conclude baby rats cry in the same way that we sneeze. Of course the rat baby could be crying because he’s cold and wants his mother to know.“All young mammals make cries when separated from their mother,” says Jaak Panksepp, a psychologist at Bowling Green State University. “If you’re willing to call this crying, then certainly other animals show this emotional response.” he says, “Some of us take seriously that animals do have emotions.”32. Accord ing to the first paragraph, what kind of emotion does “exposing the teeth” express?A. Disappointment.B. Excitement.C. Anger.D. Happiness.33. Which is one probable reason why young chimpanzees might be crying?A. They meet their brother.B. They have nothing to eat.C. They are being breast-fed.D. They are parted from their mother.34. Under what circumstance will baby rats cry just like humans’ sneeze?A. Their blood flow is decreased.B. They feel cold and long for affection.C. Their blood flow is increased.D. Their mother brings them back home.35. Where is the passage most likely taken from?A. An animal journal.B. A physiology book.C. A health magazine.D. A cultural newspaper.第二节七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）Apologizing can be very difficult. It takes maturity to put aside your pride and own up to your faults. 36. , it’s easy to make mistakes.37. .

But the 41 would no doubt be greater if you were living on the streets with little food and money.

When the car’s owner John Anderson a nd his colleague Carol Lawrence returned to the car — which was itself worth £35, 000 — in Glasgow city centre, they were 48 to find two policemen standing next to it. The policemen told them what Mr. Smith did and that the wallet was 49 .The pair were later able to thank Mr. Smith for his 50 .Mr. Anderson said: “I couldn’t believe that the guy never took a penny.

2019届高三英语总复习测试卷四一、阅读理解。

A【河南省开封市2019届高三第三次模拟】Eighteen years ago, Terry Grahl, was pregnant with her fourth child. “Money was very tight.” Terry recalls. So when her mom called to ask if she'd like to go shopping at the local fabric( 布料)store for the coming Christmas, she couldn't say no because she knew she badly needed some fabrics to make new clothes for her children. “1 remember walking around, gazing at all this beautiful fabric, wondering whether there is anything cheap that I could afford. And I could still get some money left to buy Christmas gifts for my family.”Well, Terry’s mom must have known what Terry was thinking. Smiling kindly, she whispered to Terry, “You pick any fabrics you like. It’s your Christmas gift from me.” Terry’s eyes were filled with tears as the cart began to overflow with many fabrics, but not because Terry was planning on making herself a pretty dress or a pair of curtains for the kitchen. Rather, Terry’s mom's kindness had inspired some holiday gift ideas in Terry, and it didn’t take long for Terry to fig ure out what she was going to do with all that fabric.“I was going to make my first quilt.” She explains. “Every night I would work on this queen-size quilt. With every stitch(一针), I thought about all that my mom had done for me over the course of my childhood, during which we were always battling homelessness, but Mom somehow managed to fill our lives with love and make everything okay.”On Christmas day, five days after her baby girl was born, Terry handed her mom a gift box. Inside was the quilt she had sewn, from the fabric her mother had given her as a gift.1. What do we know about Terry eighteen years ago?A. Terry made a living by making clothes.B. Terry had a bad relationship with her mom.C. Terry and her family lived a hard life at that time.D. Terry often went shopping at the local fabric store.2. Which of the following words best describes her mom?A. Strict.B. CriticalC. Faithful.D. Generous.3. What made Terry change her idea about Christmas gift?A. The value of the fabric.B. The responsibility for her family.C. The memory of her childhood.D. The endless love from her mother.4. What is the best title for the text?A. A Christmas DayB. The First QuiltC. Colorful FabricsD. Hard ChildhoodBForget losing weight or saving money—we suggest one simple task to add to your list of inspiring New Year’s decisions: read a book. Trust us, and your brain will thank you. Not only does reading increase the amount of daily pleasure in your life, but it could also delay dementia (痴呆) and even help you live longer.But still, picking the perf ect novel isn’t easy. Thankfully, Business Insider asked a Harvard professor to recommend the one book he thinks every student should read in 2019—and we suggest adding it to your list, too. (No time for all the books on your list? Here’s a shortcut: Read the endings to some of the world’s most famous books, instead.)Steven Pinker, Professor of Psychology at Harvard, recommends The Internationalists by legal scholars Hathaway and Shapiro. The book makes a surprising claim that the Kellogg-Briand Paris Peace Pact (条约) of 1928, which declared war illegal, has caused a steady drop in war throughout history.“But in their fascinating and evidence-rich book, they make a lifelike case,” Pinker said. “And like The Clash of Civilizations and The End of History, the book presents a sweeping vision (视野) of the international scene, making sense of many developments in the news and recent history.”Other professors at Harvard recommended classics like Anna Karenina by Tolstoy, as well as Just Mercy by Stevenson, The Theory of Moral Sentiments by Adam Smith, and Robot-Proof by Joseph Aoun.So, go ahead and give (at least) one of these books a read in 2019! And while you’re at it, you should add the following 20 books you really should have read by now to your list, too…1. Why does the author say “Forget losing weight or saving money”?A. Because losing weight or saving money is a harder task than reading.B. Because reading much might cause you to pick up weight or spend more.C. Because losing weight or saving money has nothing to do w ith reading books.D. Because reading books is much more important than losing weight or saving money.2. Which has the closest meaning to the underlined word “shortcut” in the 2nd paragraph?A. A time-saving way to read books.B. A l azy person’s way to read books.C. A quick way to know about endings of books.D. A wise way to deal with too many books to read.3. What or who has reduced the number of wars throughout history?A. The Paris Peace Pact.B. The Internationalists.C. Hathaway and Shapiro.D. A wide vision of the international scene.4. What may be written in the next or last paragraph of the passage?A. More advice on reading books.B. The main contents of the 20 books recommended.C. The names of the 20 books recommended.D. The brief introduction of the 20 books recommended.CChinese researchers say they have come up with a simple way to find out a person’s biological age —how much the body has aged physically – through a urine (尿) test.Their findings will help researchers conduct numbers of ageing studies and even predict a person’s risk of age-related diseases, according to a paper published in the journal Frontiers in Ageing Neuroscience.Another paper by researchers at the Beijing Hospital and the West China Hospital in Chengdu, Sichuan province, said on Tuesday that people aged at different rates due to changes in their genetic make-up and their environment.Chronological age –which is based on one’s birth date —was an inaccurate measure of biological age so a more accurate method was needed, the team said.Ageing is driven by the lifelong gradual accumulation of a broad variety of molecular (分子) faults in the body’s cells. The team said they had identified a matter —8-oxoGsn — that indicated increases in oxidative (氧化性) damage in urine as people’s bodies aged.Cai Jianping, a co-author at the Beijing Hospital, said: “As we age, we suffer increasing oxidative damage and so the levels of oxidative matters increase in our body.” The team tested the lev els of 8-oxoGsn in urine samples from 1,228 Chinese people aged two to 90 and concluded the marker helped accurately determine the stage of biological ageing in adults.They had previously found that 8-oxoGsn levels also increased with age in the urine of animals such as mice.The team has also developed a rapid analysis technique called ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography, which can process up to 10 urine samples an hour, according to the study.1. Scientifically speaking, by what does a doctor judge the stage of a person getting old?A. His condition.B. His biological age.C. His psychology.D. His chronological age.2. What are the outer factors the speed of one’s ageing physically depend on?A. One’s birth date.B. The increases in oxidative damage in urine.C. The changes in their genetic make-up and their environment.D. The accumulation of various molecular faults in the body’s cells.3. Which can take the place of the underlined word “marker” in the sixth paragraph?A. 8-oxoGsn.B. Molecular faults.C. Oxidative damage.D. Stage of biological ageing in adults.4. What is the passage about?A. Why people are ageing.B. How to delay people’s ageing physically.C. What determines the stage of people’s ageing physically.D. A rapid method with which to judge how much people are aging physically.DIt is important to protect yourself from harmful rays. But if you think a high-factor sunscreen keeps you safe from harmful rays, you may be wrong. Research in this week’s Nature shows that while factor 50 reduces the number of melanomas（黑瘤）and delays their occurrence, it can’t prevent them. Melanomas are the most aggressive skin cancers. You have a higher risk if you have red or blond hair, fair skin, blue or green eyes, or sunburn easily, or if a close relative has had one. Melanomas are more common if you have periodic intense exposure to the sun. Other skin cancers are increasingly likely with long-term exposure.There is continuing debate as to how effective sunscreen is in reducing melanomas – the evidence is weaker than it is for preventing other types of skin cancer. A 2019 Australian study of 1,621 people found that people randomly selected to apply sunscreen daily had half the rate of melanomas of people who used cream as needed. A second study, comparing 1,167 people with melanomas to 1.101 who didn’t have the cancer, found that using sunscreen routinely, alongside other protection such as hats, long sleeves or staying in the shade, did give some protection. This study said other forms of sun protection –no sunscreen – seemed most beneficial. The study relied on people remembering what they had done over each decade of their lives, so it’s not entirely reliable. But it seems reasonable to think sunscreen gives people a false sense of security in the sun.Many people also don’t use sunscreen properly applying insufficient amounts, failing to reapply after a couple of hours and staying in the sun too long.

Their mistake appears to meto arise principally from the fact that there is no punishment for the practiceof medicine except disgrace, and that does not hurt those who are familiar withit. Such persons are like the figures introduced in tragedies, for as they havethe shape, and dress, and appearance of an actor, but are not actors, so alsophysicians are many in title but very few in reality.Whoever is to acquire a competent knowledge of medicineought to process the following advantages: a natural character; instruction; afavorable position for the study; early tuition; love for labor; leisure. Firstof all, a natural talent is required, for Nature leads the way to what is mostexcellent; then instruction in the art takes place, which the student must tryto adopt by reflection, becoming an early pupil in a place well adapted forinstruction. He must also bring to the task a love of labor and perseverance toensure the instruction takes root.Instruction in medicine is like theculture of the productions of the earth. For our natural character, is, as itwere, the soil; the principals of our teacher are, as it were, the seed.Instruction in youth is like the planting of the seed in the ground at theproper season. Diligent study is like the cultivation of the fields; and it istime which passes on strength to all things and brings them to maturityHaving brought all these essentials to the study ofmedicine, and havingacquired a true knowledge of it, we shall thus, intravelling around, be respected physicians not only in name but in reality.Inexperience is a bad trait, and does harm to those who possess it, nurturingeither timidity or audacity. For timidity reveals a want ofpowers, and audacity a lack of skill. Physicians who are eager for power orthose who are undertrained are not a blessing to a community.Those things which are sacred or noble, are to be deliveredonly to sacred persons; and it is wrong to import them to the profane untilthey have been initiated in the mysteries of the science.（1）Based on paragraph 1, which of the following best characterizes bad physicians?A . They are greedy.B . They are pretenders.C . They are difficult to contact.D . They are the minority.（2）According to paragraph 2, what must accompany the personal quality of a physician?A . A good education.B . A supportive family.C . Approval from the authority.D . Popularity in the community.（3）If the author of the passage were to use a heading for each paragraph, which heading would fit best before paragraph 3?A . An Herbal Treatment.B . Medicine and Gardening.C . The Growth of a Physician.D . Understanding Agriculture First.（4）Based on the underlined sentences in paragraph 5, what is the relationship between the words “sacred” and “profane”?A . The two words are exactly the same in meaning.B . The two words are similar in meaning.C . The two words are of the same root.D . The two words are opposites.20. 任务型阅读HelpMigrant WorkersThere is nothing like going home. More so if it is for theSpring Festival family reunion. For a migrant worker it perhaps means evenmore. To be able to set out on a homeward journey with money from a year’s toilin his pocket is the best thing he can think of. ________They had to press hard for their defaultedpayments, the salaries that were failed to pay up.About 200 million migrant workers nationwide are somethingleft behind by economic reforms and opening up due to their contributions inthe past three decades. It is almost impossible to imagine life in these placeswithout them. However, they still form a disadvantaged group. Their rights areviolated in different forms. Among other things, unpaid salaries are the mostpainful of such violations that are likely to drive a migrant worker todesperate actions. ________________They have taken measures to preventemployers from holding back payments to them. Yet, as the financial crisisbites deep, some small enterprises that are struck the most try to reduce theireconomic losses by laying off migrant workers or refusing to pay them. So it isparticularly important for governments at all levels to do an even better jobin helping villager-turned-workers recover their unpaid salaries before theSpring Festival.It is good news that quite a number of local governmentshave organized special taskforces to conduct inspections in thoselabor-intensive enterprises to make sure they have paid their migrant workersin a timely and fair manner. Construction commissions in almost all provinceshave published hotlines for farmer-turned-construction workers to lodgecomplaints against their employers for withholding their salaries. ________But we need to look for solutions that willwork at all times. We need to put in place a mechanism that will effectivelyprevent employers from holding back salaries to workers.A. Some havereportedly climbed up chimneys to jump to their death unless they get theirdefaulted salaries.B. It is somethingevery Chinese look forward to as the traditional gala draws near.C. Unfortunately,weeks preceding the Spring Festival have turned out to be hard times formigrant workers.D. Hopefully, theseefforts will send more workers on a happy journey home for the Spring Festivalwith their salaries in their pockets.E. However difficultthe situations they are in, it is too cruel and unfair for employers to holdback salaries they should pay their migrant workers.F. Objectivelyspeaking, governments at various levels have done a great deal in helping theseworkers recover their defaulted salaries.五、Summary Writing.21. Directions:Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main point ofthe passage in no more than 60 words. Use your own wordsas far as possible.ToFriend or UnfriendSocial networking makes it very easy to have friends – lotsand lots friends. Hundreds or millions of people have joined QQ, Wechat, andother sites so that they can communicate with friends online. However, themeaning of the word “friend” seems changed. In the past, a friend was someoneyou had a close personal relationship with. Now, anyone in the world can beyour friend online! Some people have thousands of cyber friends, but what doyou do if you don’t want to have so many friends?Easy! You can dump an unwanted friend with just one click ofyour mouse. in recent years, it has become so common to get rid of friends inthis way that there is a new word to describe it –to “unfriend”. The newOxford American Dictionary named it word of the Year in 2009 and defined itlike this: “to remove someone as a ‘friend’ from social networking site”. Butwhy would you want to do such a thing as unfriending someone?The most common reason for unfriending someone is toeliminate annoying people from your social life. For example, some friends postmessages much too frequently, especially those messages found to be extremelyboring. They endlessly post status updates which say something like “I’mcooking dinner” or “I’m doing homework”. Another reason for unfriending someoneis disagreement about world issues. A third reason is to get rid of people whowrite dirty things on social websites.Although dumpingfriends is not just an Internet phenomenon, far moreonline friendships endsuddenly than off-line ones. Even in this computer age, it remains true thatmany people prefer spending time together face-to face. After all, that’s whatfriends are for!六、Translation.22. 人们普遍认为对颜色的偏爱能反映一个人的性格。

BBForget losing weight or saving money—we suggest one simple task to add to your list of inspiring New Year’s decisions: read a book. Trust us, and your brain will thank you. Not only does reading increase the amount of daily pleasure in your life, but it could also delay dementia (痴呆) and even help you live longer.But still, picking the perfect novel isn’t easy.Thankfully, Business Insider asked a Harvard professor to recommend the one book he thinks every student should read in 2019—and we suggest adding it to your list, too. (No time for all the books第 4 页on your list? Here’s a shortcut: Read the endings to some of the world’s most famous books, instead.)Steven Pinker, Professor of Psychology at Harvard, recommends The Internationalists by legal scholars Hathaway and Shapiro. The book makes a surprising claim that the Kellogg-Briand Paris Peace Pact (条约) of 1928, which declared war illegal, has caused a steady drop in war throughout history.“But in their fascinating and evidence-rich book, they make a lifelike case,” Pinker said. “And like The Clash of Civilizations and The End of History, the book presents a sweeping vision (视野) of the international scene, making sense of many developments in the news and recent history.”Other professors at Harvard recommended classics like Anna Karenina by Tolstoy, as well as Just Mercy by Stevenson, The Theory of Moral Sentiments by Adam Smith, and Robot-Proof by Joseph Aoun.So, go ahead and give (at least) one of these books a read in 2019! And while you’re at it, you should add the following 20 books you really should have read by now to your list, too…1. Why does the author say “Forget losing weight or saving money”?A. Because losing weight or saving money is a harder task than reading.B. Because reading much might cause you to pick up weight or spend more.C. Because losing weight or saving money has nothing to do with reading books.D. Because reading books is much more important than losing weight or saving money.2. Which has the closest meaning to the underlined word “shortcut” in the 2nd paragraph?A. A time-saving way to read books.第 5 页B. A lazy person’s way to read books.C. A quick way to know about endings of books.D. A wise way to deal with too many books to read.3. What or who has reduced the number of wars throughout history?A. The Paris Peace Pact.B.The Internationalists.C. Hathaway and Shapiro.D. A wide vision of the international scene.4. What may be written in the next or last paragraph of the passage?A. More advice on reading books.B. The main contents of the 20 books recommended.C. The names of the 20 books recommended.D. The brief introduction of the 20 books recommended.【文章大意】本文是一篇文化类短文。
