The TV was the center of the house. 3planned what show they wanted to see and cooked their dinners so that they could finish eating in time to watch it. At school, children 4the shows they watched the night before and because there weren't many programs for kids, they all watched the 5thing.When I was growing up, the TV was bigger and a lot thinner than the TVs of my parents' time.

（2021·四川达州市·中考真题）To become a better person, we should go to school every day. So how can we become powerful and start changes in our own life? Perhaps we can get some tips from the US First Lady Michelle Obama. During her visit to China, from March 20–26, Mrs. Obama shared her views on education with students.The first lady encouraged Chinese students to aim high and get a good education. In Chengdu No. 7 High School, she told students that having poor roots doesn’t matter A long as you work hard.Mrs. Obama said her family was not rich. Like many Chinese students, her parents had big dreams for her. She felt the weight of her parents’ sacrifices (牺牲) on her shoulders and worked hard to make them proud.Persevering was not easy, though. Sometimes she had to wake up at 4:30 a.m. and study late into the night. “But whenever I got tired or discouraged, I would remember something my mother always told me,” she said, “A good education is something that ①take, no, from, can, one, away, you.”Mrs. Obama al so encourages Chinese students to study abroad. “As the Chinese B goes, “②It is better to travel 10,000 miles than to read 10,000 books,” she said. “③在学校取得好成绩是不够的。

So I took out my shovel and took care of both our driveways and sidewalks because it was my turn to do a favor 4. It took a while but I finished it and got into my car for work.That night I got a 5on my door; it was my neighbor. He immediately shook my hands and thanked me for shoveling his driveway and sidewalk, so that he was able to get to work earlier and 6 a boy."As soon as I started the car early this morning, a call came through that a young boy in our neighborhood was seriously ill.7, my partner and I were only about 2 minutes away, but the closest ambulance 10 minutes," added he.

Do you know what EQ is?EQ (emotional quotient) is a measure (判断) of your ability to recognize (辨别出) and manage your emotions (情绪), as well as the emotions of others.Simply put, having a high EQ means that you're a "people" person. You know yourself very well and you can easily understand others. Many experts divide EQ into three skills — the ability to recognize your own emotions, the ability to use those emotions to solve problems, and the ability to manage emotions, such as by making yourself composed when you're feeling nervous.Does it seem obvious to you that having a high EQ can be a good thing? People with a high EQ usually perform better at work, especially if their job requires them to deal with strangers often. According to MindTools, many companies are now using EQ tests when interviewing new workers.Having a high EQ can help you in everyday life as well. For example, when two friends have an argument, the one with a high EQ can "read" the other person's emotions and know when and how to stop the argument, perhaps by ending it in a humorous way.If you feel like you have a low EQ, don't worry. It's possible to improve it. For example, if you can recognize things that might stress you out and use positive thinking to recover from failures, you're already improving your EQ.4.What's EQ?A. It's a test on IQ.B. It's an ability to show emotions.C. It's a measure of the ability to manage your emotions.D. It's a measure of the ability to compete with strangers.5.According to the passage, if you have a high EQ, you can .A. have a high IQB. do better at workC. avoid all the failuresD. never argue with your friends6.The underlined word "composed" in the passage means "".A. coolB. excitedC. busyD. angry7.Which of the following is NOT true about EQ?A. There are ways to improve our EQ.B. Many experts think EQ includes three skills.C. People with a high EQ won't understand others.D. Having a high EQ helps us with our work and daily life.8.What is the best title for this passage?A. Hide our emotionsB. Control our emotionsC. Have a good relationship with othersD. How to solve problems between friends三、书面表达请仔细观察下面的图片,并根据所给提示和要求写一篇短文。

You have many qualities that I greatly admire(钦佩). For example, in their lives, most singers only work in one musical type. However, you have changed from country music to pop, and have done a really great job! You have always been very creative.I admire you not just because of your music, but also because of your personality. You always think about something good in all situations and you do everything confidently. It's strong of you to have come out of the failures and kept on creating new songs no matter what others say.I remember my personal experience of learning how to ski. At first I fell again and again. I almost wanted to give up. Suddenly I thought of you and the effort you had put into creating music and doing volunteer jobs. I got up to try one more time. To my surprise, I succeeded!I really want to thank you for having made me become a more optimistic person. And that, in my opinion, is the meaning of having an idol.I also want to say that the next time you feel upset,you don't have to hold back your sadness and keep it all to yourself. You may share it with us no matter what happens. We, as your fans, will always stay with you and support you!Best wishes,Sandy1.What kind of music did Taylor use to create?A.Pop music.B.Country music.C.Rock music.D.Classical music.2.Taylor can't be a person in Sandy's opinion.zyB.creativeC.confidentD.strong-minded3.The underlined word "optimistic" in the fifth paragraph probably means.A.staying hopeless about lifeB.staying hopeful about lifeC.keeping complaining(抱怨) about lifeD.keeping looking for easy lifeBAs flying has become more popular with people around the world, the amount of waste produced from airlines has been growing over the past 100 years.From food to drinks, and even blankets and make-up, everything is covered in plastic. Passengers have been pushing airlines to change their ways, and a few have responded. Australia's Qantas started a zero-waste flight(班机) locally from Sydney to Adelaide in May. United Airlines started an "all-recyclable service goods" flight from Los Angeles to Chicago in June. Now let's look at some numbers and see why this is becoming a huge problem.The number of passenger flights has grown to more than 40,000 per day — and that is not even taking other kinds of flights into account, like cargo planes which carry goods.On average, one passenger alone leaves around 3.15 pounds of rubbish behind on the flight. International Air Transport Association(IATA) has estimated that this builds up to 6.7 million tons of rubbish per year. About 33% of airline waste is food waste, 28% is cardboard and paper waste, and 12% is plastic waste. Even though some waste is recyclable, different countries have different policies(政策) on waste management. For example, Australia and America have rules that say untouched food and drinks from the flight must be thrown away, which accounts for 20% of total airline waste.It's time for change. The United Airlines flight in June that was called "Flight for the Planet", started using completely recyclable plates and cups. Instead of producing the regular 65 pounds of waste, the cabin produced only 14 pounds or about 6.4 kg of waste!With pollution and rubbish becoming a serious problem, it will be interesting to see what kind of products and solutions airlines come up with.4.What has Australia's Qantas done to reduce waste?A. It has used the completely recyclable materials.B. It has started a zero-waste flight.C. It has asked passengers to take away waste.D. It has offered a new policy on waste management.5.According to the passage, makes up about 33% of airline waste.A. plasticB. food wasteC. cardboardD. paper waste6.How much waste did "Flight for the Planet" produce in June?A. 3.15 pounds.B. 6.4 pounds.C. 14 pounds.D. 65 pounds.7.What does the fourth paragraph mainly tell us?A. It's very convenient for passengers to take the plane.B. Passengers produce a lot of different waste on the flight.C. People should realize the importance of recycling.D. Australia and America have rules about airline waste.8.What's the best title for the passage?A. An introduction to airline wasteB. The improvement of the airlineC. Environmental protectionD. The problem of air pollution四、连词成句1.it, what, fine, is, weather!2.think of, the movie, what, you, do?3.Mo Yan, was, the, written, story, by.4.your, library, phone, in, the, turn off.5.she, don't, when, I, left for, Beijing, know.参考答案题型组合练17一、单项选择1—5 ACCCA6—10 CDCAA二、完形填空1—5 CDADB6—10 BADCD三、阅读理解1—3 BAB4—8 BBCBA四、连词成句1.What fine weather it is2.What do you think of the movie3.The story was written by Mo Yan4.Turn off your phone in the library/In the library turn off your phone5.I don't know when she left for Beijing。
2021年河北省高考英语总复习：阅读理解1．Jennifer Mauer has needed more willpower than the typical college student to pursue her goal of earning a nursing degree．That willpower bore fruit when Jennifer graduated from University of Wisconsin﹣Eau Claire and became the first in her large family to earn a bachelor's degree．Mauer，of Edgar，Wisconsin，grew up on a farm in a family of 10 children．Her dad worked at a job away from the farm，and her mother ran the farm with the kids．After high school，Jennifer attended a local technical college，working to pay her tuition（学费），because there was no extra money set aside for a college education．After graduation，she worked to help her sisters and brothers pay for their schooling．Jennifer now is married and has three children of her own．She decided to go back to college to advance her career and to be able to better support her family while doing something she loves：nursing．She chose the UW﹣Eau Claire program at Ministry Saint Joseph's Hospital in Marshfield because she was able to pursue her four﹣year degree close to home．She could drive to class and be home in the evening to help with her kids．Jennifer received great support from her family as she worked to earn her degree：Her husband worked two jobs to cover the bills，and her 68﹣year﹣old mother helped take care of the children at times．Through it all，she remained in good academic standing and graduated with honors．Jennifer sacrificed（牺牲）to achieve her goal，giving up many nights with her kids and missing important events to study．"Some nights my heart was breaking to have to pick between my kids and studying for exams or papers，" she says．However，her children have learned an important lesson witnessing their mother earn her degree．Jennifer is a first﹣generation graduate and an inspiration to her family﹣and that's pretty powerful．（1）What did Jennifer do after high school？A．She helped her dad with his work．B．She ran the family farm on her own．C．She supported herself through college．D．She taught her sisters and brothers at home．（2）Why did Jennifer choose the program at Ministry Saint Joseph's Hospital in Marshfield？A．To take care of her kids easily．B．To learn from the best nurses．C．To save money for her parents．D．To find a well﹣paid job there．（3）What did Jennifer sacrifice to achieve her goal？A．Her health．B．Her time with family．C．Her reputation．D．Her chance of promotion．（4）What can we learn from Jennifer's story？A．Time is money．B．Love breaks down barriers．C．Hard work pays off．D．Education is the key to success．2．The connection between people and plants has long been the subject of scientific research．Recent studies have found positive effects．A study conducted in Youngstown，Ohio，for example，discovered that greener areas of the city experienced less crime．In another，employees were shown to be 15% more productive when their workplaces were decorated with houseplants．The engineers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology（MIT）have taken it a step further ﹣changing the actual composition of plants in order to get them to perform diverse，even unusual functions．These include plants that have sensors printed onto their leaves to show when they're short of water and a plant that can detect harmful chemicals in groundwater．"We're thinking about how we can engineer plants to replace functions of the things that we use every day，" explained Michael Strano，a professor of chemical engineering at MIT．One of his latest projects has been to make plants glow（发光）in experiments using some common vegetables．Strano's team found that they could create a faint light for three﹣and﹣a ﹣half hours．The light，about one﹣thousandth of the amount needed to read by，is just astart．The technology，Strano said，could one day be used to light the rooms or even to turn trees into self﹣powered street lamps．In the future，the team hopes to develop a version of the technology that can be sprayed onto plant leaves in a on﹣off treatment that would last the plant's lifetime．The engineers are also trying to develop an on and off "switch" where the glow would fade when exposed to daylight．Lighting accounts for about 7% of the total electricity consumed in the US．Since lighting is often far removed from the power source（电源）﹣such as the distance from a power plant to street lamps on a remote highway ﹣a lot of energy is lost during transmission（传输）．Glowing plants could reduce this distance and therefore help save energy．（1）What is the first paragraph mainly about？A．A new study of different plants．B．A big fall in crime rates．C．Employees from various workplaces．D．Benefits from green plants．（2）What is the function of the sensors printed on plant leaves by MIT engineers？A．To detect plants' lack of water．B．To change compositions of plants．C．To make the life of plants longer．D．To test chemicals in plants．（3）What can we expect of the glowing plants in the future？A．They will speed up energy production．B．They may transmit electricity to the home．C．They might help reduce energy consumption．D．They could take the place of power plants．（4）Which of the following can be the best title for the text？A．Can we grow more glowing plants？B．How do we live with glowing plants？C．Could glowing plants replace lamps？D．How are glowing plants made pollution﹣free？3．Heads up! Across the country，sports injuries are a safety concern for young athletes．Now，the American Medical Association （AMA）has a new set of guidelines aimed at protecting players from the danger of concussions﹣serious injuries caused by a blow to the head．"By raising awareness of the serious risks associated with concussions and ensuring that the appropriate guidelines are in place，we can reduce the number of young athletes who may return to the game too soon，which can put their health at further risk，"said AMA Board Member Jack Resneck Jr M．D．in a statement．The policy recommends that young athletes who may have a concussion be taken off the field as soon as possible．Then，they are only to return to their sport with a doctor's written approval．The policy also sets age﹣specific rules for health care professionals and athletic organizations in evaluating and caring for concussions．According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention （CDC），a concussion is a type of traumatic（创伤）brain injury caused by a bump，blow，or jolt to the head or hit to the body that causes the head and brain to move rapidly back and forth．This type of movement can cause the brain to bounce around or twist inside the skull （颅骨）．It can damage brain cells and create chemical changes in the brain．The CDC says that between 1.6 million and 3.8 million traumatic brain injuries caused by sports and recreation﹣related activities occur in the U．S．every year．A study from the Center tor Injury Research and Policy showed that as many as 40% of high school athletes return to playing before they should．The AMA's new guidelines should help to bring those numbers down．（1）Why does the AMA set the new guidelines？A．To raise safety standards of sports．B．To protect athletes from concussions．C．To set rules for health care evaluation．D．To help players return to the game quickly．（2）What should young athletes who may have a concussion do？A．Avoid using the head．B．Leave the field forever．C．Get treatment in time．D．Switch to another sport．（3）What is paragraph 4 mainly about？A．What a concussion is．B．What causes damage to brain cells．C．How the CDC works．D．How a concussion can be prevented．（4）Which of the following is the best title for the text？A．Rules for Safer PlayB．Sports Injuries in the USC．Advice to AthletesD．New Policies for Doctors4．Some parents will buy any high﹣tech toy if they think it will help their child，but researchers said puzzles help children with math﹣related skills．Psychologist Susan Levine，an expert on mathematics development in young children at the University of Chicago，found children who play with puzzles between ages 2 and 4 later develop better spatial skills．Puzzle play was found to be a significant predictor of cognition （认知）after controlling for differences in parents' income，education and the amount of parent talk，Levine said．The researchers analyzed video recordings of 53 child﹣parent pairs during everyday activities at home and found children who play with puzzles between 26 and 46 months of age have better spatial skills when assessed at 54 months of age．"The children who played with puzzles performed better than those who did not，on tasks that assessed their ability to rotate（旋转）and translate shapes，" Levine said in a statement．The parents were asked to interact with their children as they normally would，and about half of the children in the study played with puzzles at one time．Higher﹣income parents tended to have children play with puzzles more frequently，and both boys and girls who played with puzzles had better spatial skills．However，boys tended to play with more complex puzzles than girls，and the parents of boys provided more spatial language and were more active duringpuzzle play than the parents of girls．The findings were published in the journal Developmental Science．（1）In which aspect do children benefit from puzzle play？A．Building confidence．B．Developing spatial skills．C．Learning self﹣control．D．Gaining high﹣tech knowledge．（2）What did Levine take into consideration when designing her experiment？A．Parents' age．B．Children's imagination．C．Parents' education．D．Child﹣parent relationship．（3）How do boys differ from girls in puzzle play？A．They play with puzzles more often．B．They tend to talk less during the game．C．They prefer to use more spatial language．D．They are likely to play with tougher puzzles．（4）What is the text mainly about？A．A mathematical method．B．A scientific study．C．A woman psychologist．D．A teaching program．5．With the young unable to afford to leave home and the old at risk of isolation（孤独），more families are choosing to live together．The doorway to peace and quiet，for Nick Bright at least，leads straight to his mother﹣in ﹣law：she lives on the ground floor，while he lives upstairs with his wife and their two daughters．Four years ago they all moved into a three﹣storey Victorian house in Bristol ﹣one of a growing number of multigenerational families in the UK living together under the sameroof．They share a front door and a washing machine，but Rita Whitehead has her own kitchen，bathroom，bedroom and living room on the ground floor．"We floated the idea to my mum of sharing a house，" says Kathryn Whitehead．Rita cuts in："We spoke more with Nick because I think it's a big thing for Nick to live with his mother ﹣in﹣law．"And what does Nick think？"From my standpoint，it all seems to work very well．Would I recommend it？Yes，I think I would．"It's hard to tell exactly how many people agree with him，but research indicates that the numbers have been rising for some time．Official reports suggest that the number of households with three generations living together had risen from 325，000 in 2001 to 419，000 in 2013．Other varieties of multigenerational family are more common．Some people live with their elderly parents；many more adult children are returning to the family home，if they ever left．It is said that about 20% of 25﹣34﹣year﹣olds live with their parents，compared with 16% in 1991．The total number of all multigenerational households in Britain is thought to be about 1.8 million．Stories like that are more common in parts of the world，where multigenerational living is more firmly rooted．In India，particularly outside cities，young women are expected to move in with their husband's family when they get married．（1）Who mainly uses the ground floor in the Victorian house in Bristol？A．Nick．B．Rita．C．Kathryn．D．The daughters．（2）What is Nick's attitude towards sharing the house with his mother﹣in﹣law？A．Positive．B．Carefree．C．Tolerant．D．Unwilling．（3）What is the author's statement about multigenerational family based on？A．Family traditions．B．Financial reports．C．Published statistics．D．Public opinions．（4）What is the text mainly about？A．Lifestyles in different countries．B．Conflicts between generations．C．A housing problem in Britain．D．A rising trend of living in the UK．6．After the cure of pneumonia，Wuhan Dad reread the letter his daughter left at the bedside，tears filled his eyes．In the second vlog series，make a video call to a friend in Wuhan，China Daily reporter Xiao Peng interviewed three Wuhan residents by video and phone，among whom three have just been released from isolation．Their lives have been transformed by pneumonia （肺炎）caused by the new coronavirus （冠状病毒）．The first interviewee was Tian Fuxin from Wuhan．He was admitted to hospital on January 20 and discharged from hospital on January 30 after 10 days of isolation treatment．"When I was admitted to hospital，I was very anxious．But after a few days I was OK．And if you're infected by the novel coronavirus，the government covers your medical expenses．Our meals are the same as the doctors' and nurses"．"Every time I saw them in their protective gear，I felt moved because I know that stuff must be awful to wear，with goggles fogged up and so on．I can't thank them enough．Those patients who were discharged early like us are very grateful to the people who helped us，because without them，it's hard to say how we could have survived．"Worried about his daughter's safety，the family had her back to the university in Shanghai before the closure．She was quarantined in Shanghai on the first day of the lunar New Year and was recently confirmed to be well enough to end the quarantine．The daughter left her father a letter in which she read between the lines her guilt not being able to accompany him and her love for him．"I can't look after you every time you are in hospital．I was right with you，though Ididn't realize how ill you were．Nothing could be done except get away．" "Dad，I love you．After growing up，I think I've never said that．You must hold on．I can't live without you，Dad．" "Don't be pessimistic．Little psychological tricks are helpful．You have to tell yourself I am feeling better．Because of infectious virus as well as its outbreak Tian Fuxin fell ill，experiencing a period of fighting the disease．However，he received the words his daughter had not long been able to speak out "Dad，I love you．"（1）Whom does the underlined word "them" in the fourth paragraph refer to？A．Wuhan residentsB．medical staffC．the three intervieweesD．the government（2）Which of the following is FALSE？A．The daughter couldn't care for her father when he was in hospital．B．The meals of the pneumonia patients are quite different from those of doctors．C．daughter was also isolated in Shanghai on the first day of the lunar New Year．D．Tian Fuxin has been cured and has recovered from pneumonia．（3）The daughter left the letter to．A．show little psychological tricks are helpfulB．inform him her being quarantined in ShanghaiC．encourage him to fight disease and she loved him all the way．D．to say goodbye to the father．（4）The article comes from．A．a magazineB．a fictionC．a brochureD．a newspaper7．Teenage summer campsWe helped on a nature reserve（保护区）for a week．We did different things every day，including cutting the reeds（芦苇）by the lake．Every day，we took turns to cook，in teams of five．When it was our team's turn，we made a simple dinner of pasta and salad for everyone．Judging by the fact that there was none left，we didn't do too badly!﹣Adam We stayed with families who had kids of our own age，and because they were on a mid ﹣term break，they came with us on all the trips．So except when we were actually in a language class，we were spending time with our new friends．It was a great way to practice English we had been working on in the classroom．﹣Oliver Every morning we had the same breakfast，and then cleaned up the camp．When it was all completely tidy，we could head off for the day．The first time we went into the city，we were put into teams and given lists of things to spot，like statues，squares and other landmarks．With some help from the locals，my team found almost all of the things on our list and came second．We went to different museums and galleries in and around the city every day．It was a great chance to learn about another country and its history．﹣Sarah （1）What do we know about the food Adam's team made？A．It didn't taste good．B．It was very popular．C．It was healthy．D．No one liked it．（2）What did Oliver find great？A．Staying with the local families．B．Helping the kids learn English．C．Making friends with the locals．D．Practising English with the native．（3）What did Sarah's team do？A．They helped protect wild animals．B．They took a language course．C．They made a cultural tour．D．They enjoyed the natural scenery．8．We are the products of evolution，and not just evolution that occurred billions of years ago．As scientists look deeper into our genes（基因），they are finding examples of human evolution in just the past few thousand years．People in Ethiopian highlands have adapted to living at high altitudes．Cattle﹣raising people in East Africa and northern Europe have gained a mutation （突变）that helps them digest milk as adults．On Thursday in an article published in Cell，a team of researchers reported a new kind of adaptation ﹣not to air or to food，but to the ocean．A group of sea﹣dwelling people in Southeast Asia have evolved into better divers．The Bajau，as these people are known，number in the hundreds of thousands in Indonesia，Malaysia and the Philippines．They have traditionally lived on houseboats；in recent times，they've also built houses on stilts（支柱）in coastal waters．"They are simply a stranger to the land，" said Rodney C．Jubilado，a University of Hawaii researcher who studies the Bajau．Dr．Jubilado first met the Bajau while growing up on Samal Island in the Philippines．They made a living as divers，spearfishing or harvesting shellfish．"We were so amazed that they could stay underwater much longer than us local islanders，" Dr．Jubilado said．"I could see them actually walking under the sea．"In 2015，Melissa Ilardo，then a graduate student in genetics at the University of Copenhagen，heard about the Bajau．She wondered if centuries of diving could have led to the evolution of physical characteristics that made the task easier for them．"It seemed like the perfect chance for natural selection to act on a population，" said Dr．Ilardo．She also said there were likely a number of other genes that help the Bajau dive．（1）What does the author want to tell us by the examples in paragraph 1？A．Environmental adaptation of cattle raisers．B．New knowledge of human evolution．C．Recent findings of human origin．D．Significance of food selection．（2）Where do the Bajau build their houses？A．In valleys．B．Near rivers．C．On the beach．D．Off the coast．（3）Why was the young Jubilado astonished at the Bajau？A．They could walk on stilts all day．B．They had a superb way of fishing．C．They could stay long underwater．D．They lived on both land and water．（4）What can be a suitable title for the text？A．Bodies Remodeled for a Life at SeaB．Highlanders' Survival SkillsC．Basic Methods of Genetic ResearchD．The World's Best Divers9．Transport has a lot to answer for when it comes to harming the planet．While cars and trains are moving towards greener，electric power，emissions from air travel are expected to increase massively by 2050．If we want big green sky solutions，we need blue sky thinking．Fortunately，there's plenty of that happening right now，particularly the short﹣haul flights powered by batteries．Harbour Air is the largest seaplane airline in North America，flying 30，000 commercial flights in 40 seaplanes each year．Significantly，all Harbour Air routes last less than 30 minutes，making it perfectly fit for electric engines．"As an airline，we're currently in the process of turning all our planes into electric airplanes．" says CEO Greg McDougall．To make this happen，the airline has partnered up with MagniX to create the world's first commercial flight with an electric engine．Making the skies electric isn't just good for the environment，it also makes sound financial sense：a small aircraft uses ﹩400 on conventional fuel for a 100﹣mile flight，while an electric one costs ﹩8﹣12 for the same distance，and that's before you factor in the higher maintenance costs of a traditional engine．There's also the added bonus that electric planes arejust much more pleasant to fly in．No loud engine noise，no smell of fuel，just environmentally friendly peace and quiet．While there has been real progress in the e﹣plane industry，the technical challenges that remain are keeping everyone's feet firmly on the ground．A battery，even a lithium one，only provides 250 watt﹣hours per kilogram；compare this to liquid fuel，which has a specific energy of 11，890 watt﹣hours per kilogram．Carrying adequate batteries，however，would make the plane too heavy to get off the ground．In aircraft，where every bit of weight counts，this can't just be ignored．The transition（过渡）from gas to electric in the automobile industry has been made easier by hybrids﹣vehicles powered by both fuel and electricity．Many believe the same pattern could be followed in the air．Fuel consumption could be reduced as the electric component is switched on at key parts of the journey，especially on take﹣off and landing．It's certainly an exciting time for electric flying．With companies like Harbour Air taking the lead，battery﹣powered planes，especially on short﹣haul journeys，are set to become a reality in the next few years．（1）According to Para.1，what is happening in air transport？A．New explorations of the sky are being launched．B．Pollution caused by batteries is being controlled．C．Efforts are being made to make air travel greener．D．Demand for short﹣haul flights is increasing massively．（2）Why is Harbour Air fit for electric flights？A．It runs short routes．B．It has a strong partner．C．Its planes can land on the sea．D．It has planes with powerful engines．（3）The expression "added bonus" refers to the fact that electric planes．A．give passengers more pleasant viewsB．bring airlines more financial benefitsC．offer more enjoyable flying experiencesD．cost less in maintenance than traditional ones（4）What might be the biggest challenge of electric flying？A．To improve the ground service for e﹣planes．B．To find qualified technicians for e﹣plane industry．C．To calculate the energy needed to power e﹣planes．D．To balance power and weight of batteries in e﹣planes．（5）What could be done during the transition from gas to electric in air flight？A．To produce new electric components．B．To increase battery consumption．C．To use mixed﹣power technology．D．To expand the landing field．（6）What is the author's attitude towards the prospect of electric flying？A．Short﹣sighted．B．Wait﹣and﹣see．C．Optimistic．D．Skeptical．10．Wild Track is an organization that aims to protect endangered animals like rhinos．They usea computer program that runs photos of animal tracks through an algorithm （演算法）．Thenthe program makes the same observations as a tracker would，allowing scientists to know where individual animals go．However，the program itself needs "training"．It starts with collecting good photos of prints from endangered animals in captivity （圈养）．As people send in photos of tracks from animals in the wild，the FIT program can compare it to tracks from animals it "knows．" As the program becomes more accurate，Wild Track hopes it will become a major tool for monitoring any endangered species．Anyone can help Wild Track by taking images of tracks and sending them to a partner organization called naturalist．org．The only tool you need is a digital camera or cellphone．After finding a clear track，place one ruler along the bottom of the footprint and another along the left side．Below the footprint，place a note containing your exact name and the date．Holding the camera or cellphone directly above the track，take a photo showing the footprint，rulers and note．Later，visit inaturalist．org and follow the instructions on the siteto send your photo．Wild Track needs photos of footprints made not only by animals in captivity but also those living in the wild．In wild places，you should take care not to disturb animals in their natural environment．If you intend to photograph in a wild area that is unknown to you，then you should not go there alone．Instead，go with someone who is familiar with the region and experienced at tracking．（1）How does the writer begin this article about WildTrack？A．By discussing the software that it employsB．By praising its recent efforts to raise fundsC．By explaining how and when it was foundedD．By summarizing different opinions about it（2）According to this article，which animals are WildTrack mainly interested in？A．Those which cause a threat to human settlementsB．Those which are now at risk of becoming extinctC．Those which have been illegally kept as petsD．Those which disappeared from the Earth long ago（3）What does this article talk about in detail？A．A list of locations worth exploringB．A strategy for acquiring equipmentC．A warning not to engage in huntingD．A technique containing several steps（4）What does the article suggest doing in wild areas？A．Admiring the wild landscapeB．Preparing well for wild weatherC．Leaving wild creatures aloneD．Consuming a diet of wild plants11．Why go to Madrid？There may be a slight chill（寒冷）in the air，with temperatures staying around 15℃in March，but Spain's handsome capital is slowly starting to warm up，Even more attractive arethe cultural events．A new exhibition on the living and working spaces of Spain's greatest artist，Picasso，has just opened in the studio at the Fundacion Mapfre at Paseo de Recoletos 23．It runs until 11 May with rarely seen pieces borrowed from his family．Later this summer，the 400th anniversary of the death of the Renaissance（文艺复兴）painter El Greco will be marked with an exciting exhibition at the Museo del Prado at Paseo del Prado from 24 June to October．How to go？The widest range of flights is offered by EasyJet from Bristol，Edinburgh．Gatwick，Liverpool and Luton．British Airways and its sister airline Iberia combine forces from Heathrow and London City．Ryanair flies from Manchester and Stansted；Air Europa flies from Gatwick．Barajas airport is 13km north﹣east of the city centre and is served by frequent trains on Metro line 8，but the shortest underground journey is a bit complex with at least one change at Nuevos Ministerios station and takes about 30 minutes．The fare to any station in the city centre is￡4.50．The airport express bus runs every 15 to 35 minutes around the clock；￡5 one way．It takes 40 minutes to reach the city centre．A taxi takes half the time．A flat rate of ￡30 covers most of central Madrid．（1）When will the exhibition about Picasso close？A．On 23 March．B．On 11 May．C．On 24 June．D．On 5 October．（2）Which airline operates flights from Manchester to Madrid？A．EasyJet．B．Ryanair．C．Air Europa．D．British Airways．（3）What is the fastest way to reach central Madrid from Barajas airport？。
一、阅读理解AA soccer player, Carson Pickett, was born without a left forearm. She didn't have a role model when she was growing up. "There was no one who looked like me to look up to," she said.When she met 2-year-old Joseph Tidd, she became the role model that she always wanted. Joseph was born without a left forearm as well, just like her. That has given Pickett and the little boy a special relationship."Truly within five minutes of meeting him, we had a connection," Pickett said. That surprised her because Joseph was so young. "It was fantastic to me that it felt like he realized why we were connected," she said.Pickett met Joseph for the first time in April after a match. At that time, the player welcomed Joseph and showed him her arm. He raised his with a bright smile. Then, both of them were excited and felt like they were old friends.Joseph's mother, Colleen Tidd, took the picture, which caught this happy and meaningful moment. She put it on the Internet and the photo quickly went hot.Joseph's parents said that their son saw himself in this kind soccer player. Pickett said it went both ways. "I know I might be seen as his role model, but he's also mine," Pickett said. Joseph understands her "in a way other people can't," she said. "It's just a gift and the picture means a lot," Pickett went on. "Hopefully when he gets older, he can see that and feel even more of what it means."Now, she wants Joseph and others like him to know one thing. Even if people see you as different, you should have confidence and do what you think is right.1.What can we learn about Joseph from the passage?A.He first met Pickett in April.B.He was born without forearms.C.He was three years old then.D.He was not happy to see Pickett.2.Who put the picture of Joseph and Pickett on the Internet?A.Carson Pickett.B.Joseph Tidd.C.The coach.D.Colleen Tidd.3.What can we mainly learn from this passage?A.Make friends with sportswomen.B.Understanding others is important.C.Practice a lot to take good pictures.D.Follow your heart and be confident.BWhen the British Museum opened in 1759, it was the world's first national public museum, free (as it still is) to all people across the world. It has a breathtaking collection of over 8 million objects which make the museum one of the biggest museums in the world. It is said that if you just take a quick look at each one of the objects, it will still take you almost 60 years to look through all the objects. But don't worry! We'll guide you through some of the must-sees.4.Which one tells the history of Ancient Egypt?A. The Rosetta Stone.B. The David Vases.C. The Mummies.D. The sculptures.5.Where can you enjoy the David Vases?A. Room 4.B. Room 95.C. Room 62.D. Room 63.6.Which of the following cannot be done in the Great Court?A. Have a cup of coffee.B. Read some books.C. Enjoy the sculptures.D. Book early tickets.7.Where is the passage probably from?A. A science report.B. A travel magazine.C. A school poster.D. A government website.二、任务型阅读Many students have problems with vocabulary when preparing for tests. Here is some advice on how to memorize(记忆) new words. You can build up your English vocabulary with these methods.Repeated encounters(反复遇见)The usual way of "memorizing" new words is through repeating them while they're still in your mind. However, simply repeating a word doesn't seem to be useful. But the following way is helpful: repeated encounters. Words can be memorized more easily if they've been met at least seven times in your reading. So, read English magazines and newspapers from time to time.Spacing and reviewIt's necessary to make a plan of your memory work over a period of time. You'd better memorize words day by day instead of doing it in a single day. That's why new vocabulary introduced in one lesson is reviewed in the next lesson, and then in later lessons.Use it or lose itPutting words to use in interesting ways helps add them to your long-term memory. In a study of vocabulary learning, students who made up their own sentences with new words and read them aloud memorized them better than those who learned the words separately and silently. Besides, you can imagine a picture when memorizing a new word. That can help a lot.Mix it upLet's face it — learning words can be really boring, but it doesn't have to be. Thanks to the Internet, there are more interesting ways to get the job done. Try watching videos fromEnglish-speaking countries and copying the way they speak. You can even upload(上传) your own videos and try becoming a star yourself.1、2题完成句子;3题简略回答问题;4题找出并写下全文的主题句;5题将文中画线句子译成汉语。

Good writing skills will help us improve our grades and benefit us later in life. The following tips can be helpful.Make good word choices. When we're not sure which word is the proper one for a sentence, look it up in a dictionary. Many of us choose words in a hurry and don't spend much time deciding if they're proper. Good word choices are necessary for good writing.Check facts. If we want people to believe what we write, we must make sure our facts are true. We should use dependable facts.Rewrite. A common problem is that we don't like to rewrite. In fact, rewriting is better than any other way to find out and correct some mistakes, like grammar and spelling mistakes. Rewriting makes our writing better, though it takes us more time and more work.Read aloud. Sometimes it's easier to find problems with spelling, word usage, and grammar when we read aloud. Reading aloud not only helps us find out our problems but also helps us develop our writing skills.Prepare a list. Preparing a list is necessary for writing a good article. Such a list includes: Is there a proper title? Have I explained every point? Are all the parts of the article included? The list can help us make sure that we have covered everything.With the above tips, we can improve our writing skills and learn how to write better articles.1.When we don't know which word is proper for a sentence, we can.A.choose words in a hurryB.look it up in a dictionaryC.read it aloudD.give it up2.The best way to find out mistakes and correct them is to.A.read aloudB.rewriteC.prepare a listD.check facts3.What does the passage mainly tell us?A.How to hand in articles.B.How to improve grades.C.How to improve writing skills.D.How to find out the problems with learning.三、任务型阅读In English classes, we spend a large amount of time studying grammar and new words. We work hard to improve our reading and listening skills. However, few of us pay enough attention to body language. So body language is not important, is it?The answer is, "Yes!" As the old saying goes, "Actions speak louder than words." Sometimes, we can communicate with each other even without a single word. For example, shrug(耸肩)our shoulders, and, without a word, we've just said, "I don't know."Body language is important in our personal lives. It can help us stress what we are saying. It can help us express our true feelings which are hidden in our heart. It can also help us find out if someone is lying. Usually, people who are lying do not make eye contact with you. They may turn their bodies away or raise their shoulders because they are uncomfortable with the conversation.In job interviews, the interviewers can sometimes judge the interviewee before he or she speaks. Ifyou lean(倾斜) forward to the speaker, that means you are interested in what he or she is saying. Listening without making eye contact means you are not paying attention but are waiting for your turn to speak.Scientists have been studying body language for a long time. They say more than 70 percent of our messages are delivered through body language. They have discovered that sometimes body language is more accurate than the words we use.So it is very important for us to learn body language. By understanding body language, we are less likely to be misunderstood. We will find it easier to get a job. We will also have lasting relationships.1题完成句子;2、3题简略回答问题;4题找出并写下第三段的主题句;5题将文中画线句子译成汉语。
一、阅读理解AA little chameleon(变色龙) was sad that he didn't have a color of his own like other animals. Every time he moved around, he had to change color. When he was walking around the forest, he found a red flower. Then he walked close to it and his skin turned red. He liked red best and decided to keep red as his own color.On a sunny day, the chameleon went to ask a horse for help. This horse was an artist. She colored the chameleon red with her tail.Then the chameleon came to the grass to play. A snake saw him and began to come to him. The chameleon ran away. He climbed a tree. An eagle(鹰) saw him and wanted to catch him. The chameleon ran away again. Later, he jumped into a river. The water washed away the color on his skin. Then he quickly climbed a tree and stayed under the leaves. He turned green, the same color as the leaves. The snake and the eagle couldn't find him.Now the chameleon was happy to be himself again. So know yourself better from knowing your talents.

So many things may fill your mind and pull your thoughts in different directions. This isn't always bad. Sometimes a wandering mind can lead to a new creation. However, wandering thoughts can also stop you from getting things done, keep you up at night, or hurt your health. Don't worry. Try the following practice.Doing Exercise and ActivitiesSlow down and let your mind focus(专注) on your breathing. By controlling your breathing, you make your mind work together with your body. Once you lose interest in what you're doing, you can take a break from it. Go for a walk, do some exercise, take a shower or even lie down and think about nothing. These activities help a lot.Focusing on Tasks You're DoingDo one task at a time. It won't slow you down. Instead, it keeps your mind focused and you'll be able to get more done quickly. While doing tasks, don't look around from time to time. If there's something keeping your mind wandering, allow yourself a specific(特定的) time to worry, think or plan. When the time is up, refocus on your next task.Controlling Worrying ThoughtsWriting down or sharing your worries helps to get them out of your head. When there's a big task, it's understandable to put it off. But by facing it bravely and trying to solve it, you can getaway from your worrying thoughts. If it doesn't work after you've tried everything, accept that there are always things you can't change.1题完成句子;2、3题简略回答问题;4题找出并写下第二条建议的主题句;5题将文中画线句子译成汉语。

一、阅读理解Since the age of three, Chelsie Hill had dreamed of becoming a dancer. She won her first competition at five and kept dancing through her school years. She made the high school dance team and everything seemed to work for the dream as a dancer.However, that ambition nearly ended one night in 2010. Hill, then a 17-year-old high school senior in Pacific Grove, California, was in a car accident that put her in the hospital for 51 days and that left her paralyzed(瘫痪的) from the waist(腰) down. For most people, that would have made them give up any hope of a dancing career. For Hill, it was just the beginning. Far from being an obstacle(障碍), her wheelchair cheered her. "I want to prove to my community — and to myself — that I am still ‘normal'," she told Teen Vogue, "whatever normal means."Normal for her meant dancing, so Hill did it in her wheelchair right alongside hernon-disabled high school dance team. "Half of my body was taken away from me, and I have to move it with my hands," Hill told Today. "It certainly took a lot of learning and patience."After graduation, Hill wanted to make her dance network bigger. She met many women like her online, shared her ideas with them and invited them to dance with her. "It was such an amazing experience," she said.Hoping to meet more people in a larger city, Hill moved to Los Angeles in 2014 and formed a team of dancers with disabilities. In the dancing competitions between the disabled around the country, the team has brought a big surprise to many people. "I want to break down the stereotype(刻板印象)of wheelchair users and show that dance is dance, whether you're walking or you're rolling," she told CBS News.Chelsie Hill has made her childhood dream come true. She's a dancer. But her dance dream has helped her find something else.1.What happened to Chelsie Hill after the car accident?A. She had difficulty in hearing.B. She wasn't able to walk.C. She gave up her dream.D. She lost everything in life.2.What do we know from the passage?A. Chelsie Hill won her first dancing competition at the age of three.B. Chelsie Hill didn't have any difficulty dancing in her wheelchair.C. Chelsie Hill formed a team of dancers with disabilities in Los Angeles.D. Chelsie Hill built her dance network when she was still a student.3.What is the main idea of the passage?A. Where there is a will, there is a way.B. You are never too old to learn.C.

Both children and teachers plant and water the seeds. Then they pick the vegetables and use them in school meals. Now they can all enjoy healthy food at lunchtime. "School dinners are tastier than ever before!" says one student.RecyclingThe Fairland students don't just bring their books to school — they bring their used things too! There are recycling bins in the playground for cans, bottles, batteries (电池) and paper. They collect used things and sell them. Teachers give a prize every month to the student who tries the hardest to recycle.Planting trees"Our school was one of the least beautiful areas of the city because there were no green areas," says the head teacher Lynne Johnson. "Now every child plants their own tree. He or she looks after it during the week. They make the view from the classroom more beautiful!"Finding cleaner ways to get aroundEveryone walks or cycles to Fairland School! "When the roads are busy, it's faster to ride a bike than travel by car anyway," says one student. Even the teachers don't use their cars.

On the one hand, they are simply numbers. On the other hand, they have meanings. Some problems are difficult to solve, so people can use lots of number expressions that can help. Here are some examples:Some problems have only one solution. We cannot be of two minds over those. But with any luck, we could solve the problem in two shakes of a lamb's tail. We could have our answers quickly and easily.Sometimes we can kill two birds with one stone. That is, we can complete two goals with only one effort or action. But we must remember that two wrongs don't make a right. If someone does something bad to you, you should not do the same to him.If you are going out with your closest friend and you don't want another friend to go along on your date, you can just say to your friend: two's company, three's a crowd.Some of my friends are confused and do not understand their schoolwork. They are at sixes and sevens. In fact, they don't care if they can finish high school. They see little difference between the two choices. But they are really happy when they complete their studies and graduate from high school. They are on cloud nine.Nine times out of ten, students who do well in school find good jobs. Some work in an office doing the same things every day at nine-to-five jobs. You do not have to dress to the nines, or wear your best clothes, for this kind of work.1.Jerry is thinking of buying a new computer, but he can hardly decide which one to take, so he is .A. at sixes and sevensB. of two mindsC. at nine-to-five jobsD. on cloud nine2.What does the underlined word "date" mean in Paragraph 4?A. 日期B. 日子C. 时期D. 约会3.If Clara studies hard, , she can pass the exam.A. dressing to the ninesB. two's company, three's a crowdC. nine times out of tenD. in two shakes of a lamb's tail4.How is the text mainly developed?A.

Artificial intelligence(AI)(人工智能) is growing rapidly. We are living in a world that depends more and more on AI. AI is a group of technologies that help machines get, understand and use information to do tasks.AI's recent developments have got a lot of social attention. Some people have welcomed AI because it makes things possible. For example, AI will have a big influence on areas like medicine and engineering. But this attention has also produced a lot of fear. Especially, many workers are worrying that AI could make them lose their jobs.According to a recent study, nearly five percent of jobs will disappear because of AI. In some industries, AI is already doing the work that people used to do, such as assembling(装配) cars, digging the coal and lifting goods. Selfdriving cars and trucks controlled by AI will also take away the drivers' jobs in the future.On the other hand, AI will also create many new jobs for people. More people will be needed to write programmes for AI systems(系统) and they will set up and work on them, too. Meanwhile, jobs that require feelings, excellent communication skills with people will not be replaced(取代) by AI. These include jobs in fields like teaching, nursing and personal training.AI is here. It is changing how people live and work in many ways. That makes AI important to watch, not to fear.66、67题完成句子；68题简单答复下列问题；69题找出并写下第二段的主题句；70题将文中画线句子译成汉语。
TEST 18AOne day, a raven (乌鸦) happened to fly past a lake. Looking at thelake, he saw the most beautiful animal he had ever seen. It was a swan(天鹅) and its feathers (羽毛) were as white as snow. The swan was playingwith other birds happily, talking and dancing. And it seemed that theother birds all liked to stay with it.When he looked at his own feathers,they were as black as coal. The raven was very angry with the swan. “How can the swan have such wonderful feathers?” said the raven. What should h e do with his feathers? He thought it over and over.Then, the raven decided that he also wanted to have white feathers like the swan’s. From that day on, the raven began to live like the swan. He moved his home from the woods to the lake. He also started to eat water plants like the swan. He tried his best to talk and dance with the other birds. The most important was that each day, the raven would wash his feathers, hoping that they would turn white. Even he went to the nearby rivers and ponds to wash his feathers because he thought the water in the lakes was not enough for him to wash them.

And the biggest of all is the International Space Station (ISS).From May to July is the best season to watch the ISS flying over the earth.And people can see it with their eyes during the time.The scientists want to live on the ISS. They think that the best way to learn more about space is to live there.When the space station is finished, it will be like a city in space. People will stay and study there with many of the things they have at home. Laboratories, living rooms and power stations are being built. “The ISS is the most expensive program. Billions of dollars are spent on it every year.Scientists hope that the ISS will be helped us understand the human body better, explore space and study the earth. It can help us make life on the earth better.” Said Kathryn Clark, an ISS scientist.Sixteen countries are part of the space program: the US, Russia, Canada, Japan, Brazil, and 11 European countries.

However, many people suffer (遭受) from disruptive sleep (失眠) through night after night. If that’s you, the following can help you get some good sleep.Rest with the sunWhen the sun goes down, it’s a sign for you to begin to relax. Of course, you don’t haveto go to sleep at once, but begin to relax your body. Rest with some light reading or by relaxing on your sofa. You’d better not take high-energy activities, such as playing basketball at night.Make your bedroom the room for restThe bedroom isn’t the room for you to play or study. Or at least it shouldn’t be. When you put your televisions or computers in your room, they make it difficult for you to fall asleep. Put away any unnecessary things and make it a place mainly for relaxation.Don’t eat too much at bedtimeWhen it’s time to sleep, your body prefers to sleep and doesn’t like to do anything else. When you eat too much before going to bed, your body will work hard to digest (消化) all that food. It can’t get the best preparation (准备) for sleep. So experts (专家) say it’s better to have about three hours between dinner time and bedtime.Clean your mindWorry is the sleep thief, too. It’s hard to relax when your mind is still working. Make some space at night for your own quiet time. Read something that will encourage you to let your problems go. When you stop worrying, you will sleep better.( ) 1. We should take high-energy activities ______ according to the passage.A. before the sun goes downB. after the sun goes downC. when the sun goes downD. as soon as the sun goes down( ) 2. Put aw ay any unnecessary things and make it a place mainly for relaxation. Here “it”refers to (指的是)______.A. your dinning roomB. your reading roomC. your bedroomD. your sitting room( ) 3. If you go to bed at 10:00 o’clock in the evening, you had better have dinner at about ______.A. 6:00 o’clockB. 7:00 o’clockC. 8:00 o’clockD. 9:00 o’clock( ) 4. How many ways of getting good sleep does this passage tell us?A. Three.B. Four.C. Five.D. Six.( ) 5. The best title of this passage is ______.A. How to clear your mindB. The importance of sleepingC. Some ways to get a good night’s sleepD. Where to put your televisions or computersDWhat will the car be like in the future? Maybe we can sit in a car that can drive itself.About 40 years ago, scientists from the United States started to develop self-driving cars (无人驾驶汽车). The most famous recent one was made by Google in 2009. There are cameras and radars (雷达) on the top of the car. They allow the computer in the car to draw a 3D map of the environment. Chinese scientists have also successfully developed a self-driving car. The car made a trip from Changsha to Wuhan.Is a self-driving car safe? A recent study shows that robots make safer drivers than humans. If only 10% of cars on the street are self-driving, they will save 1,000 lives (生命) every year. If 90% of vehicles (交通工具) are self-driving, 21,700 lives will be saved a year. However, a self-driving car is expensive and each costs about ＄100,000. So it is impossible to be very popular in the near future.根据短文内容，判断下列各句正误。
