Most of it was from my flight training. Ten years ago, I was watching TV in my bedroom one day before my flight training began and I saw the second airplane hit the World Trade Center. Then I got the call saying I no longer had a job. My career was destroyed. I had no place to go and ended up moving into my car. I read newspapers to look for a job and I was offered one, which offered me $75,000 a year. But I decided to make a change. I wanted to receive flight training and become a pilot. It was my dream. So I refused the job and chose to work part time. It sounded unbelievable to do such a thing. It was even more so because I was over the age of thirty, but I was determined to make my dream come true. I left the state of Virginia and ended up in Las Vegas.Though I made about $25,000 a year at that time, I was severely in debt because the fees for training were high. I was living in my truck and sleeping in parking garages. I didn't plan for my life to take this direction, but I insisted on my training. Then at last my world changed and mydream came true. I finally became a pilot.The passengers that I flew had more money in their pocket than I had in the bank. I hated myself and was worried about my situation, but I never gave up. I kept paying back the debt and I kept saving in the bank. And finally, I paid off my credit card debt.Today, I am a skilled airline pilot based in Milwaukee. I wrote in my spare time. My autobiography (⾃传) has been published, which sells well. That is my first book, but it won't be my last one.26.

It provides different kinds of Italian food. There are refrigerator cases full of prepared foods and desserts, and shelves filled with olives and various pasta.There's some traditional Italian music and the smell is of olive oil and garlic (大蒜). Above the largest refrigerator case, there's a chalk board covered with descriptions of more Italian sandwiches than I could remember.I stepped into Frigo's almost by accident when I had to stay in Springfield into the evening for an open house at the school where I work. Frigo's is the perfect place to find something quick to go. There are no tables, so all food is taken out. I also thought it would be a great place to pick up some already-prepared food to bring home for dinner.I ordered the easiest meal possible: a chicken sandwich and a salad. It cost $4.75 for the sandwich. The salad was $4.99 and didn't have salard dressing on it. I must have missed the choice of salad dressing on the way out. The sandwich was great 一great chicken, excellent tomato sauce and not too much cheese.I wish I had tried one of the many other sandwiches which include Joe's Favorite ($5.25-$6.75) and the Dante (King) which is made of turkey breast, roasted red peppers, asiago cheese and choice of dressing.I have a feeling that I'II be picking up dinner for me and the kids at Frigo's soon.26. Who would be most likely to go to eat at Frigo's?A. People who want to eat quietly in a nice restaurant.B. People who want to enjoy home-made food.C. People who like traditional American food.D.

We can infer from the passage that the writer __________.A. seldom eats out in a restaurant with his familyB. feels very happy that he has found Frigo'sC. dislikes eating sandwichesD. lives a very relaxing lifeBEngland has been the birthplace of most of the great English-language theater written throughout history. Most of the plays in England that are truly famous have something in common. They usually come from a playwright（剧作家）with several famous plays.ShakespeareWilliam Shakespeare is considered the.most famous British playwright. Shakespeare has a large catalog(目录) of tragedies, comedies and history plays, and each category is home to some of the most famous plays ever written. Hamlet, Macbeth, Romeo and Juliet, Othello and Julius Caesar are all tragedies and performed in theaters around the world every year. Famous comedies include: A Midsummer night's Dream and Much Ado About Nothing. In the history category, Richard Ⅲ and Henry V are very famous.Oscar Wilde and George Bernard ShawSeveral hundred years after Shakespeare, English people began to enjoy the works of Oscar Wilde and George Bernard Shaw. Wilde's plays are still popular now, and The importance of Being Earnest is both performed and studied extremely frequently. A Woman of No Importance and An Ideal Husband are among his other famous works. Shaw and Wilde were born within a few years of each other, but Shaw was a much more productive writer. His most famous plays include Pygmalion and Candida. Shaw's plays are loved so much that an entire theater company is devoted to performing his work in Niagara-on-the-Lake in southem Ontario.Harold PinterThe plays of Harold Pinter certainly have an international presence. His writing was so widely recognized for its importance that he was awarded the Nobel Prize in literature in 2005. Pinter is especially known for his style of writing. Many of his plays such as BetrayaL, The Dumb Waiter and his first play, The Room, are extremely well known.31.

Do you like being around people who share the same respect and love for natural resources? If you say "yes", then a fisheries biologist is a great career choice for you.As you can probably guess, education is very important. A Bachelor of Science degree in fisheries or biology is strongly recommended. Many biologists have a Master's degree. But it's not only good education that prepares you for a career as a fisheries biologist —field experience is also important. Volunteer work, internships (实习) and short-term fish technician positions are good ways to gain valuable training that can give you an edge in the competitive job market.In addition to good education and field experience, a fisheries biologist needs other skills. You'll spend a lot of time working with the public, so it's important to feel comfortable talking to a variety of people. Good communication, listening, and presentation (陈述) skills are a must.A common misconception among many people is that fisheries biologists get to fish all the time. Most biologists wish that were true. But as a fisheries biologist, you are especially busy during the fishing season, which leaves little time for you to actually go fishing. It's sad, but true.Each day brings something different in the life of a fisheries biologist. In the spring and fall, you spend a lot of time on the water shocking fish in order to sample the population, studying fish, and talking with people. The winter is spent analyzing (分析) fish data and communicating with the public.So if you find fish interesting and fun to leam about, and like working both outside and inside, consider a career as a fisheries biologist. You'II never be bored!36. We can infer this passage was written to __________.A. advise us to respect and protect wildlifeB. encourage us to spend more time working outsideC. explain why education is important for our careerD. introduce a good career to those who are interested in wildlife37. What are Paragraphs 2 and 3 mainly about?A. Education needed to find a good job.B. Requirements for becoming a fisheries biologist.C. The benefits of being a fisheries biologist.D. Some good ways to gain valuable training.38. To be a good fisheries biologist, which of the following is NOT necessary?A. You shoulcl be good at communicating with others.B. You should have rich knowledge of biology.C. You should havc ricld experience.D. You should be a good swimmer.39. The underlined word "misconception" in Paragraph 4 probably means "__________".A. questionB. misunderstandingC. dreamD. explanation40. It can be inferred from the passage that __________.A. fisheries biologists like working in winter mostB. fisheries biologists can easily get bored of their workC. fisheries biologists get to fish all the time all year roundD. fisheries biologists spend a lot of time working outside in spring and fallDOnce upon a time, there was a scholar wbo wanted to gain more knowledge each day even though he had already gained enough knowledge. One day, he came to visit a saint and wanted to be his student. The saint provided some tea. He slowly filled the scholar's cup: the cup was full. yet he kept pouring and pouring. The scholar burst out, "Stop! You can't add anything to something that's already full!" The saint set down the teapot and replied, 'Exactly."Whether it's the silence between notes in music, or some open time in your schedule, you need space to act effectively. Yet most of us, myself included, tend to stuff as much as possible into whatever room is available —closets, schedules, budgets, relationships, and even the mind itself.However, some people know how to avoid overstuffing their life. For example, in Australia, it seemed that most people there operated at about 85% of their capacity(能力), unlike Americans pushing as close to l00% as possible. So when you run into Australians you know in the street, they have time to hang out and talk with you.Remember the cup: its value is in the space, the emptiness it holds. How to empty you "cup"?Be mindful of the element of space, openness, and emptiness in your life. This includes room in a drawer, the volume of air in a kitchen, and open-mindedness in a friend. Sometimes you're just stuck with a big bucket of tasks yet to do. But at least empty the bucket faster than you fill it with new tasks. Put some spacc between finishing one thing and starting another. For example, after sending one email, take a breath before replying to another one. Drop the stuff you can no longer afford to lug around. At sea level, you can run with a brick in your backpack, but if you're hiking on a mountain, that brick has got to go.41. By pouring water into the cup, the saint most probably wanted the scholar to know that __________. .A. he should pay attention to detailsB. he should keep learning every dayC. he had already gained enough knowledgeD. he should be very careful in order to succeed42. We leam that compared to Americans, Australians __________.A. work much harderB. know less about their capacityC. spare more time for themselvesD. spend less time with their friends43. The underlined word "lug" in the last paragraph probably means "__________".A. reachB. carryC. seeD. show44. What's the stucture of the passage?A. Example →advice →conclusion →story.B. Topic →example →advice →story.C. Story →topic →example →advice.D. Reason →topic →advice →example.45. What would be the best title for the passage?A. The art of life.B. Value every minute.C. The art ofdrinking tea.D. Empty your "cup" at times. .第二节信息匹配（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。

2012年广东省高一学生双语报34期高一年级阅读理解集训营第一天AHave you ever thought about why foods taste different? It's really quite amazing. Your tongue and the roof of your mouth are covered with thousands of tiny taste buds (味蕾). When you eat something, the saliva (唾液) in your mouth helps break down your food. This causes the receptor cells located in your taste buds to send messages through sensory nerves to your brain. Your brain then tells you what flavors you are tasting.Taste buds probably play the most important part in helping you enjoy the many flavors of food. Your taste buds can recognize four basic kinds of tastes: sweet, salty, sour, and bitter. The salty/sweet taste buds are located near the front of your tongue; the sour taste buds line the sides of your tongue; and the bitter taste buds are found at the very back of your tongue.Everyone's taste is different. In fact, your taste will change as you get older. When you were a baby, you had taste buds, not only on your tonguce, but on the sides and roof of your mouth. This means you were very sensitive to different foods. As you grew, the taste buds began to disappear from the sides and roof of your mouth, leaving taste buds mostly on your tongue. As you get older, your taste buds will become even less sensitive, so you will be more likely to eat foods that you thought were too strong as a child.Things like medications (药物治疗), smoking, not getting enough of the right vitamins, injury to the head, brain tumors, chemical exposure, and the effects of radiation can cause taste disorders. Imagine what it would be like if you could not taste anything? (286词)l. What can we know about the locations of different taste buds?A. The sweet ones are in the middle of your tongue.B. The salty ones are at the back of your tongue.C. The sour ones are on the sides of your tongue.D. The bitter ones are near the front of your tongue.2. Why is a baby very sensitive to different foods?A. Because it has the most taste buds on its tongue.B. Because it has the most taste buds in its mouth.C. Because it has more saliva in its mouth.D. Because it has taste buds in its throat.3. What's the best title for the passage?A. How to protect your sense of taste?B. How to make food taste better?C. The importance oftaste buds.D. Introduction to the sense of taste.BWith hundreds of ice climbs in the United States, both skilled climbers and beginners can practice their ice climbing skills and enjoy the excitement of reaching the top.

Be careful! You are not alone, and they were here first!Sea turtle? Yes, they are! In fact they have been coming to this beach for thousands and thousands of years, ever since their creation. Sea turtles don't come simply for enjoyment, as they depend on this beach for their nesting grounds. They return here again and again to lay their eggs. If the sea turtles' nesting beaches are harmed, polluted, or destroyed, thousands of sea turtles willstop hatching (孵化), ending their life cycle and forcing sea turtles closer into dying out.Before you travel to a Caribbean island, your knowledge and concern are very important to the future of sea turtles. Here are some guidelines for travelers to the Caribbean when you visit beaches used by turtles for nesting.◎Don't leave trash behind! Plastic bags are often mistaken for jellyfish (水母) and enten by turtles andl can kill them.◎Don't allow dogs on the beach. They smell out the nests, dig them up, destroy the eggs and kill the young.◎Campfires may "bake" the nests below, and discourage a mother from coming ashore.◎Don't use beach umbrellas. All too often, the pole is driven right through the nests below. Armchair umbrellas are recommended.◎Always turn off outdoor lights on all beachfront houses.◎Don't walk on the heach with a flashlight or shine one in its face.

There are so many things to hear, and so many new instruments, like iPods and headphones, which can harm your hcaring ifused improperly. Keeping the volume(音量) to a reasonable level on an iPod or other portable listening instruments is one of the most important ways to protect your hearing. Another great way to keep your hearing protected is to avoid loud noises whenever possible. There are many loud noises from power tools to machinery, and it is important to avoid these noises as often as possible. When it is not possible to avoid them, keep your hearing protected by using earplugs(耳塞).If you think your hearing may have already been damaged by modern technology, it is important to have your hearing tested by a physician. Only such a professional will be able to measure your level of hearing loss and help you find the best solution to your hearing problem.For those with hearing issues, the choices have never been greater. There are many excellent hearing aids on the market. Having a hearing aid can be a perfect choice for the young and the old alike, and many people who swore they would never wear a hearing aid find that they love the convenience and quality these instruments represent.Never let an unimportant thing like vanity (虚荣) get in the way of treating a hearing problem. These days there are hearing aids that are nearly invisible to the naked eye, including a number of models that fit completely inside the car. If you believe you may be experiencing a problem with your hearing, it is important to have it checked out, and to take the right measures to protect your ears. In many cases, this treatment will be as simple as wearing earplugs. Taking care of your cars is of great importance. Afier all, you only get one set of ears. (351词)l.

He took home the top prize at the fifth annual texting event, beating 11 other competitors in the final, including last year's champion Brianna Hendrickson from Brooklyn, New York.Wiershke, who was wearing a gray shirt and having Justin Bieber's hairstyle, sailed through each level of the competition by typing passages of text on a QWERTY keyboard rapidly without any mistake. One special round even included being blindfolded(蒙眼) on the stage to make up phrases by memory."I'm extremely nervous," Wiershke said while waiting for the results after the final round. "I'm getting ready to hear Brianna's name. When I heard my name was announced, I really couldn't believe my ears." After the announcement was made, confetti (五彩纸屑) dropped from the ceiling and Wiershke was met on the stage by the singer who said that she liked texting very much. She was Ashley Tisdale, a famous and beautitul singer, who awarded him his check.In August, a film on Music Television called "Thumbs" took a behind-the-scenes look at the teenager's life. It shows how he practiced texting to be the fastest. The film followed a series of young texting competitors, including Brianna Hendrickson, in the weeks leading up to this year's LG US National Texting Championship.

I thought I would be a natural for climbing. I was always an athlete and naturally good at sports. So, I didn't understand why I was so bad at rock climbing.I went ro the rock gym and climbed all the time, and everyone kept telling me "Just climb more and you'll get better." Well, however, nothing I did was working. It felt like the harder I worked at it, the less progress I was actually making. After a while, I even started hating any climber who was stronger and better than me —especially the climbers who made it look so easy.After a long time, I started making friends with some of the most experienced climbers around ... professionals (专业人员) and full-timers. In fact, I felt so comfortable with them that onc afternoon I just came out and simply asked for help.There is a saying, "If you want a shortcut to success, find someone who is successful and ask them to show you how to get there." It's true! In just a few short months, I learned far more from these climbing professionals than what I had learned during the previous (之前的) years of struggling on my own. My climbing changed ... my strength, skills, mental toughness, foorwork, confidence, everything.I was no longer the average climber that no one knew. I bdiscovered that climbing like the experts is more about working smarter, not harder (no training 7 days a week). What I discovered is so simple that, looking back now, I realized the biggest thing holding me back from being abetter climber and having more fun doing it ... was ME! (291词)8.

I can also communicate at a basic-level Italian.My love of languages starts from childhood. From as early as pre-kindergarten, I began imitating (模仿) other people's accents. Although my ability to learn languages fast might be partially genetic (遗传的) (as my mother is a speech therapist and has a great ear for sounds and accents), I strongly believe my abilities today come more from my personal efforts and interests.My eagerness for learning foreign languages started when I was 12 years old in junior high school. We were given the choice of French or Spanish. I picked French. On a class trip to Quebec City, I noticed that I was totally crazy about trying my newly learned French with the local people while my classmates were less interested. This led me to studying French in my junior year of high school, and later, I also studied Chinese in college.While l've never lived in a Spanish-speaking country, l've reached a level of fluency in Spanish by watching a ton of Spanish TV series. The Portuguese comes from my own personal efforts while traveling in Brazil.Below I'll list the benefits of learning new languages and my personal tips on how to learn new languages:Children's development: lt's reported that learning foreign languages improves children's critical thinking skills. Kids studyng foreign languages do better in other subjects including mathematics and science.Finding a job: If an employer needs to fill a position, he /she will be much more likely to pick the person who knows a second language. Foreign language speakers have more advantages to bridge the link between a company and its customers.Making new fnends: I have met so many friends and nice people around the world, withwhom I would not be able to communicate if I couldn't speak foreign languages.Travel: When visiting other countries, the abiliry to speak the local language not only makes the trip more convenient, but also much more enriching. (354词)l. The author learned Spanish by __________.A. choosing the Spanish course in high schoolB. living in Spanish-speaking countriesC. imitating his relatives' accentsD. watching TV2. Which of the following benefits of learning a foreign language is NOT mentioned?A. Learning about different cultures.B. Making travel easy.C. Making friends.D. Finding jobs.3. What will be most probably talked about in the following paragraph?A. The importance of foreign languages.B. Examples of learning new languages.C. Some tips on learning new languages.D. The future of language learning.HWhat's it like to live, work, date and raise children in another country? A British woman living across Europe speaks to us.Louise Scharff, 41, from Haywards Heath, West Sussex. is an assistant at a health care company. She and her Danish husband, Jakob, who works at the Danish Chamber of Commerce, have twin daughters aged 10 and have lived in Denmark for 15 years.In Denmark, being a stay-at-home mother simply isn't done. There's a sense that women are equally capable (能干的) and well-educated and shouldn't be put to waste. There's excellent state childcare and most companies are happy to let parents work flexibly (灵活). Sometimes, l'll have a sense of guilt when I speak to my sister-in-law back in Britain who's a full-time mother, but for me there's no point in giving up work because there would be no fellow mothers to go for coffee with.It's a healthy life. We walk, cycle and run, and at weekends wc socialise as a family. Perhaps because many Danes don't get as much time with their kids during the week, it's accepted that we get together with friends in big family groups. It's not like in Britain where parents are dying to get a babysitter on Saturday and have some adult time.Getting married isn't the big expensive thing as it is in Britain, either. Danes, if they do marry, do so quietly and pay for the ceremony (典礼) themselves as a couple. I find that more honest and admirable.You do have to warm the Danes up. They're not quick to help you find your way on the street. When you do make friends with them, it's worth it. They are not boring people. Instead, they are capable of finding the fun side of things and make you laugh. (304词)4. We can infer that in Denmark __________.A. it's not easy to find a jobB. most mothers stay at homeC. women work harder than menD. mothers are encouragcd to work5. What do parents in Denmark usually do at weekends?A. They work overtime in the office.B. They are busy looking for a babysitter.C. They take their children to get-togethers.D. They spend some time alone without their children.6. What is the writer's attitude towards the way in which Danes get married?A. She doubts it.B. She supports it.C. She finds it confusing.D. She is worried about it.7. Which of the following words might the writer use to describe the Danes? .A. Dull..B. Lazy.C. Poorly-educated..D. Humorous.IIt is 87 years since Roald Amundsen, on December 14, 1911, stood at the South Pole. He had reached a goal that was the dream of many men. For the first time, human voices broke the silence of the world's southemmost point. This brought fame to Amundsen and his men. But in a letter, Amundsen openly said that no man had ever stood at a spot completely opposed (相对的) to his real drean, which for the great Norwegian was the North Pole.Amundsen was born in 1872 a Borge in southeast Norway. From boyhood days, he wished to be a explorer. He read all the literature he could get on exploration. He spent a great deal of time training his body. However, his mother wished him to study medicine. But at the age of 21, when both his parents had died, Amundsen sold his medical textbooks and announced his goal of becoming a polar explorer.After several attempts by ship to reach the polar area, Amundsen showed an early interest in planes as a helper to polar research. On May 11, 1926 the tireless explorer left Spitsbergen and went aboard the airship "Norge" (Norway). With him were Lincoln Ellsworth, Italian Umberto Nobile —who had constructed the ship and flew it —and the brilliant pilot Hjalmar Riiser-Larsen. In addition, there were 12 crew members.After a flight of only 16 hours, they were able to drop the Norwegian, American and Italian flags over the Pole. The "Norge" landed at Teller in Alaska on May 14. The crew had covered 5,456 kilometres in 72 hour, were the first men to have flown from Europe to America. The last remaining land on the world map had been filed in. (292词)8. From the first two paragraphs, we leam that __________.A.many men had reached the southemmost point before AmundsenB. the South Pole was the life goal of AmundsenC. Amundscn's mother hoped that he would study medicineD. Amundsen spent a great deal of time training to be a doctor9. How old was Amundsen when he set foot on the North Pole?A. About 21.B. About 33.C. About 39.D. About 54.10. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Hjalmar Riiser-Larsen was an Italian pilot.B. Lincoln Ellsworth invented the airship "Norge".C. Amundsen was considered the first to discover America.D.Over 12 people reached the North Pole with Amundsen.11. From the passage, we can conclude that __________.A. Amundsen's success lies in his strong will and interestB. without planes, people would never gct to the polesC. nothing is more important than science and technologyD. friends play an important role in Amundscn's life12. What does the underlined sentence in the last paragraph mean?A. People now know about all the land in the world.B. There is much land to be discovered in the world.C. Amundsen will go on exploration in the future.D. The North Pole still remains to be explored by people.第四天JRepetitionWhen you learn a foreign language, repetition can seem boring, but it is the key to your success. Studies show that a great deal of repetition is necessary for you to truly "own" a word. Repetition exercises can be verbal, oral, read or written.Use Several of Your SensesYou will understand new vocabulary better if you speak the word out loud as you write it down or read it.Mirrors and ActingWatch yourself in the mirror occasionally as you speak your foreign language. Practice various postures, and try acting out your feeling, such as angry, happy, or sad. Use the language to truly communicate your feelings so that it has some context.Make MistakesSome students are very nervous in foreign language class. You don't want to say anything stupid. However, learning a language almost guarantees that you will make mistakes. You just have to convince yourself that this is OK, and keep trying.______________________In your native language, you don't have to listen very well. You only actually hear some of the words being said and your brain fills in the rest. You can't do this when you are first learning a language. You have to train yourself to listen and listening to audio tapes can really help.Study StrategiesThink about how you learn best, and then put those methods to work. Many people benefit fiom flash cards, word association, memory tricks, or making up sentences using new vocabulary words. Find a "study buddy" that you can meet with to study and discuss the material you're learning.TranslationFor any modern language, translation is considered a no-no, though occasionally you can't avoid it. Consider the following expression in English: to be in a pickle. If you were to translate this word-for-word into another language, it would be nonsense.Study FrequentlyStudy often for short periods of time. Four half-hour study periods are usually more effective than a two-hour block. Languages cannot be learned at the last minute. They are learned through practice and review.Happy learning! (342词) l. What's the author's purpose in writing this passage?A. To give tips on learning a foreign language.B. To list some problems foreign language learners often have.C. To present some questions about learning a foreign language.D. To compare different methods of learning a foreign language.2. What's the best title for Paragraph 5?A. Ear training.B. Use audio tapes.C. Don't be nervous.D. Don't forget your native language.3. We can leam from the passage that "study buddy" may refer to __________.A. an audio tapeB. an electronic dictionaryC. a teacher who can help youD. a person you study together withKThe World Health Organization recently reponed that the number of cases of tuberculosis (TB) (肺结核) has been abating since 2006. Also, fewer people are dying from TB. But a study by researchers at the University of California, San Francisco, says smoking could threaten this progress.Nearly twenty percent of all people use tobacco, and millions of non-smokers get sick from breathing the smoke. The new study predicts that smoking will produce an additional thirty-four million TB deaths by 2024.Efforts to control the spread of TB have mainly focused on finding and treating infections. Fewer efforts have been made to understand the causes. Dr Anthony Fauci is the director of the United States National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. He said, "Despite our control efforts, we still have more than a million people each year dying from TB and millions of people getting infected; we realize it's still a very important problem. So we have to do the practical thing and we have to do the fundamental(基本的) research things at the samc time."Smoking does not cause TB; bacteria cause the infection. But the srudy says smoking affects the nervous system in a way that makes an inactive case of TB more likely to develop into an active one. Stanton Glantz is the director of the University of California's Center for Tobacco Control Research and Education and an author of the new study. He says it shows that TB cannot be controlled unless tobacco use is controlled. He said, "It increases the number of people who will get TB by about seven percent."The study is described as the first to identify a direct link between tobacco use and rates of TB infection and death. Professor Glantz says the results should guide those creating health policies and TB control efforts. He said, "If you want to control the infectious disease of TB, you have to control the tobacco industry and the tobacco industry's efforts to increase tobacco use, particularly in developing countries where TB is a big problem." (342词)4. What would be the best title for this passage?A. Scientists try to fmd the causes ofTB deaths.B. Study links smoking to millions ofTB deaths.C. Study shows smoking is harmful to our health.D. Scientists pay more attention to TB deaths than before.5. What does the underlined word "abating" in Paragraph 1 mean?A. Falling.B. Surviving.C. Rising.D. Responding.6. What would Dr Anthony Fauci probably agree with?A. TB infections are no longer a serious problem.B. More efforts are needed to find the causes of TB infections.C. Few efforts have been put into the work of treating TB infections.D. The practical and the fundamental research cannot be done together at present.7. It is implied in the passage that __________.A. it is not very hard to control TBB. people cannot blame smoking for TBC. an inactive case of TB is deadlyD. smoking indirectly leads to TBL。

英语周报2024高一31期作文Here is an English essay with more than 1,000 words, as requested, without a title and without any extra punctuation marks in the body of the text.The English Weekly 2024 Issue 31 Essay for Grade 11Learning a new language can be a challenging yet rewarding experience. As a high school student, I have had the opportunity to study English, which has opened up a world of possibilities for me. In this essay, I will discuss the benefits of learning English and share my personal journey in mastering this global language.One of the primary advantages of learning English is the ability to communicate with a vast number of people around the world. English has become the lingua franca of international business, diplomacy, and academia, making it an invaluable asset in today's globalized world. By being proficient in English, I can engage in meaningful conversations with individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds, fostering cross-cultural understanding and expanding my social and professional networks.Moreover, learning English has broadened my access to information and knowledge. A significant portion of the world's literature, scientific research, and technological advancements are published in English. By mastering this language, I can delve into a vast array of resources, from academic journals to online tutorials, and stay informed about the latest developments in various fields. This access to information has not only enriched my academic pursuits but also fueled my intellectual curiosity and personal growth.Furthermore, learning English has enhanced my cognitive abilities. Studies have shown that bilingualism or multilingualism can improve problem-solving skills, critical thinking, and mental flexibility. As I navigate the complexities of the English language, I have developed a greater capacity for analytical thinking, attention to detail, and the ability to adapt to different communication styles. These cognitive benefits have had a positive impact on my overall academic performance and have prepared me for the challenges of higher education and future career endeavors.In addition to the practical and intellectual advantages, learning English has also opened up cultural and social opportunities. By understanding the nuances of the language, I can better appreciate and engage with English-speaking literature, films, music, and art. This cultural immersion has broadened my perspectives and allowed me to develop a deeper understanding and appreciation for diversecultural traditions and values.My personal journey in learning English has been a transformative experience. When I first began studying the language, I was overwhelmed by the complexity of its grammar, pronunciation, and vocabulary. However, through consistent practice, dedication, and a willingness to make mistakes, I have gradually improved my proficiency. I have found that engaging in conversations with native speakers, reading extensively, and immersing myself in English-language media have been particularly effective strategies in enhancing my language skills.One of the most rewarding aspects of my English learning journey has been the sense of accomplishment I feel as I witness my progress. From struggling to form simple sentences to being able to express my thoughts and ideas fluently, the journey has been filled with small victories that have fueled my motivation to continue improving. The ability to effectively communicate in English has also opened up new opportunities for me, such as participating in international exchange programs, applying for prestigious scholarships, and considering future career paths that require proficiency in the language.As I look towards the future, I am excited to continue my exploration of the English language and the opportunities it presents. I plan toseek out opportunities to practice my English skills, such as joining language exchange programs or volunteering in English-speaking environments. Additionally, I aim to pursue further education or professional development in fields where English is the primary language of communication, allowing me to deepen my expertise and contribute to the global community.In conclusion, learning English has been a transformative experience that has enriched my academic, intellectual, cultural, and social life. The ability to communicate effectively in this global language has opened up a world of possibilities and has equipped me with valuable skills that will serve me well in my future endeavors. I am grateful for the opportunity to learn English and am committed to continuing my journey of linguistic and personal growth.。

"OK, Dad," said his son. But he was afraid his son couldn't remember this, he wrote these words down on a piece of paper and gave it to him. His son put it into his small pocket, took it out and looked at it every now and then.Four days passed, but no one came to see his father. The boy thought that there was no man to come and that the piece of paper was of no more use for him, so he burnt it that evening.The next afternoon, someone knocked at the door. The boy opened it. A man was standing at the door and said, "Where is your father?" The boy put his hand into his pocket at once and looked for the piece of paper. He could not find it.

The boyPassage BOne of the things to be learnt in a foreign language is guessing all the time what kind of thing to come when listening to someone talking. People do this all the time in their own language, so it is necessary to do this in a foreign language, too. Here are some examples.1. "What's the matter？" "I went to a party last night, so I…"2. "I feel so tired these days."" I think y ou'd better…"3."Of course, she never stops talking. She is one of the most…"You can see from the above three examples that the context (上下文) helps a lot in understanding what is being talked about. So "guessing "is very important in understanding English, especially spoken English.61.This passage tells us mainly about _________.A. the importance of "guessing " in learning a foreign languageB. how to guess what one is going to talk aboutC. some examples of right guessingD. how important it is to guess all the time62.From the context, we can see maybe the finished answer in EXAMPLE 1 is _________.A. "… so I didn't have a good time."B. "…so I went to bed very late."C. "…. so I felt unhappy."D. "… so I got up very early."63. Maybe the finished answer in EXAMPLE 2 is ________.A. "I think you'd better have a good rest and take good care of yourself."B. "I think you'd better have something to drink."C. "I think you'd better get some help from your friends."D. "I think you'd better be more careful."64. Maybe the finished answer in EXAMPLE 3 is ______.A. "… she is one of the most famous film stars."B. "…she is one of the most beautiful women."C. "… she is one of the most famous speakers."D. " .. she is one of the most talkative women."65. From the passage we can infer (推断) that guessing is _______in learning a foreign language.A. the only wayB. more important in spoken English than in written EnglishC. more important than any other wayD. more important in written English than in spoken EnglishPassage CNow satellites are helping to forecast（预报）the weather. They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere（大气）, because this is where the weather forms. They send these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists（气象学家）can see the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures, the scientists can often say how the weather will change.Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures. When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare them with earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days. Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead.66. Satellites travel _____________.A. in spaceB. in the atmosphereC. above the groundD. above space67. Why do we use the weather satellites to take pictures of the atmosphere? Because __________.A. the weather satellites can do it easilyB. clouds form thereC. the weather forms thereD. the pictures can forecast the weather68. Meteorologists forecast the weather __________.A. when they have received satellite picturesB. after they have compared new satellite pictures with earlier onesC. before they received satellite picturesD. during they study satellite pictures69. Maybe we’ll soon be able to forecast the weather for ________.A. one dayB. two daysC. five daysD. seven days or even longer70. The main idea of this passage is that satellites are now used in _________.A. taking pictures of the atmosphereB. receiving pictures of the atmosphereC. doing other work in many waysD. weather forecastingPart IV Writing(45marks)Section A(10marks)Directions: read the following passage. Fill in the numbered blanks by using the information from the passage.Write NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS for each answer.It is not surprising to hear that more and more people are trying to lose weight by using weight-loss pills. It is becoming a very popular way to deal with weight because then all that people need to do is simply take the pill and carry on with their normal eating habits all the while losing weight.As with the seemingly endless supply of weight-loss programs, there is a wide range of weight-loss pills that you can choose from and they go from prescription drugs(处方药) to natural products that are supposed to have same effect but offer a safer choice.Weight-loss pills can be highly effective when the appropriate drug is chosen for the patient and many people have quiet obvious results over a relatively short period of time once they have found a solution that has worked for them.Still, you need to be aware that these natural weight-loss pills can have side effects and some serious reactions can be extremely dangerous to your health.No matter what type of pills or products you are taking to lose weight, you really should discuss everything with your doctor first to ensure that your health won’t be in danger and in particular if you have any other health problems that need to be discussed.With prescription drugs you are going to have to consult your doctor, so it would be a wise decision to talk about all the alternatives before deciding what the best for you is.On the other hand there have been many people who have had obvious problems with weight-loss pills they have been using, whether it is prescription drugs or natural products. In some cases, these substances have no effect on the user.It certainly isn’t worth endangering your life to lose weight as weight loss should actually be about improving you life.Section B(10marks) (2,4,4)DIRECTIONS: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.The more money a married woman earns, the less housework she will do regardless of how much her spouse earns, according to a new study.A researcher at the University of Massachusetts Amherst found that big paychecks (薪水) equal less cooking and cleaning in a study of 918 women in double-income families. Married women who made $40,000 or more a year spent nearly one hour less on housework per day than women who earned $10,000 or less, according to the findings based on data (数据) from the National Survey of Families and Households.“Up to this point, people have thought that the important thing was how much money a woman makes compared to her husband, but the only thing that matters is how much money she earns,” Sanjiv Gupta, the author of the study, said in an interview.The study, which is published in the Journal of Marriage and Family, showed that for every $7,500 in annual income that a married woman earned, she performed one hour less of housework each week.Gupta confirmed the connection between money, housework and spousal relationships in a separate study using data on nearly 2,000 couples in the United States and Europe.The average earnings of American women increased by $6,200 between 1965 and1995,according to the U.S.Census Bureau (人口普查局).During that time, the amount of time married women spent on weekly chores fell by 14.6 hours.Since the husband’s earnings had no effect on the amount of housework a woman does,thefinding suggests that women are using their own money to reduce their housework by doing things such as ordering food from restaurants instead of cooking,and hiring cleaners instead of doing the cleaning themselves,Gupta said.81.Find in the passage a word closest in meaning to the underlined word “spouse”.(回答词数不超过1个)82.How do high income women reduce the amount of housework they do?(回答词数不超过8个)83.What is the main idea of the passage?
