When I came out,I saw a middle-aged couple 8 around.Feeling 9 about that,I asked the lady 10 .What surprised me was:they were waiting for us!The lady 11 me that she and her husband wanted to see us safely get back into our car.She informed me that some times rest areas 12 be a dangerous place for a young lady like me.I was very 13 by their being so 14 t o a stranger.Being young,and probably inexperienced in the 15 dangers of rest are as,I had never thought that there was any 16 of something goi ng wrong.I 17 them for their kindness and continued the journey,reaching my destination safely.I didn’t get their names.Though many years have 18 ,the memory of their kindness is still 19 rooted in my mind.Sometimes angels come wearing make-up.Though we can’t see their 20 ,it doesn’t mean they aren’t angels.二. 阅读理解(每小题2分,满分共8分)Parties and social gatherings no longer excite us the same wa y they once did.This is not due to a lack of desire to socializ e,but the smart phone.At parties,people focus more on their smart phones than on their drinks .According to a recent study from International Data Corpora tion,over half of all Americans have a smart phone and reach it th e moment they wake up,keeping it in hand all day.In addition,too many people are using smart phones while driving and as a result, they get into car crashes.34 percent of teens admit to text while driving,and they confirm that texting messages is the major interrupti on while driving.People’s attachment(依恋)to their smart phones is unbelievably becoming more impo rtant than the lives of themselves and others.Just as drivers dismiss the importance of focusing while on the mad,many people also fail to recognize the significance of human i nteraction.When with their friends.some people pointlessly(无谓地)check or send messages in the presence of their friends,which means that their friends are less important.In addition ,relying on our smart phones to make friends does not give us the same advantages as making new friends in the real world .Face-to-face conversations will give us the chance to improve our com munication skills in the long run.As many people risk their lives and the lives of people around them just to send a text or mindlessly check their messages ,smart phones are in many ways more dangerous to people.The technology shows the achievement weakens the value of communication.Not only is the smart phone affecting our de sire to interact face to face,but it is also lowering people’s ability to communicate.21.

每周一测Ⅰ. 阅读理解AMark felt that it was time for him, to take part in his community, so he went to the neighborhood meeting after work. The area’s city councilwoman (女议员) was leading a discussion about how the quality of life was decreasing. The neighborhood faced many problems.Mark looked at the charts taped to the walls. There are charts for parking problems, crime, and for problems in vacant buildings. People were supposed to suggest solutions to the councilwoman.It was too much for Mark. “The problems are too big,” he thought. He turned to the man next to him and said, “I think this is a waste of my time. Nothing I could do would make a difference here.”Mark thought some more on his way to the bus stop. “People should just take care of themselves,” he decided. “That’s enough to do. I can’t take on all the problems of the world.”As he neared the bus stop, Mark saw a woman carrying a grocery bag and a baby. She was trying to unlock her car, but she didn’t have a free hand. As Mark got closer, her other child, a little boy, suddenly darted into the street. The woman tried to reach for him, but as she moved, her bag shifted and the groceries started to fall out. Mark ran to take the boy’s arm and led him back to his mother. Then he picked up the grocerie s while the woman smiled in relief. ‘‘Thanks!” she said. “You’ve got great timing!”“Just being neighborly,” Mark said. As he rode home, he glanced at the walls of the bus. On one of them was “Small acts of kindness add up.” Mark smiled and thought, “Maybe that’s a good place to start.”1. It is known from the passage that .A. Mark played an active part in community activitiesB. the city councilwoman was responsible for the falling of life qualityC. visual aids were used to display the seriousness of problemsD. many people were discouraged by the many problems facing them2. In Mark’s opinion, .A. nobody was so able as to solve the problemsB. he was not in the position to solve such problemsC. many people were too selfish to think about othersD. he already had more than enough work to do3. What is the implication of the Words on the bus wall?A. You should be kind to your neighbors and they will treat you the same way.B. Everyone can play his own part to make things better.C. All small acts will add up to kindness.D. It’s a small act to help a person in need.4. The passage is mainly about .A. how individuals can help make a differenceB. running a neighborhood meeting to solve its problemsC. citizens’ reactions t o the problems they faceD. solving problems through group actionBHave you ever wondered why people drive on a different side of the road? It might seem bizarre that U. K. D rivers stay on the left, but they’re not the only ones. Around 35 percent of the world population do the same, including people in Ireland, Japan, and some Caribbean islands.Originally, almost everybody traveled on the left side of the road. However their way of transport was quite different from today: Think about four legs instead of four wheels. For Medieval swordsmen on horseback, it made sense to keep to the left to have their right arms closer to their enemies. Getting on or off was also easier from the left side of the horse, and safer done by the side of the road than in the center.So why did people stop traveling on the left? Things changed in the late 1700s when large wagons (货车) pulled by several pairs of horses were used to transportfarm products in France and the United States. The wagon driver sat behind the left horse, with his right arm free to use his whip to keep the horses moving. Since he was sitting on the left position, he wanted other wagons to pass on his left, so he kept to the right side of the road.The British Government refused to give up their left-hand driving ways, and in 1773 introduced the General Highways Act, which encouraged driving on the left. This was later made law thanks to The Highway Act of 1835.When Henry Ford showed his Model T in 1908, the driver’s seat was on the left, meaning that cars would have to drive on the right hand side of the road to allow front and back passengers to exit the car onto the roadside. However, British drivers remain on the left, and this is highly unlikely to change.5. What does the underlined word “bizarre” in Paragraph 1 mean?A. Funny.B. Strange.C. Wrong.D.Difficult6. Why did people riding the horse travel on the left in history?A. It was safer to keep on the leftB. It was easier to carry goods.C. It was easier for them to fightD. It was necessary to control the horse.7. What made drivers of large wagons travel on the right?A. Their sitting position.B. The road conditions.C. The number of horses.D. The products in the wagons.8. Which of the following may be the best title for the text?A. UK Drivers Still Go On The LeftB. Why People Like Sitting On The Left SideC. The History Of Transportation MeansD. The Reasons For Different Driving SidesⅡ. 完形填空阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
每周一测Ⅰ. 阅读理解AThough they have been around since the late 1990’s, emoji(表情符号) usage has increased sharply with the wide use of smartphones.Recently, a team from the University of Michigan and Peking University analyzed 427 million messages sent by users in 212 countries to look into the differences in emoji use by location and culture. The findings indicated the French are emoji power users and included them in 19.7% of their texts. It’s almost twice that of Russia,where only 10.9% of the messages contained emojis. Americans came in a close third at 9.2% and was followed by Mexico at 7.9%.Also, though the handily wins the title as the most popular emoji, the French appear to prefer the . They are also more likely to use variations of the heart emoji.Not surprisingly, the study found that women tend to use emojis more extensively than men. However, they stick to a handful of favorites. Men, on the other hand, show better judgment and appear to go to extra length to find an emoji that matches the situation. But even so, they select from the top 119 of the 1 281 emojis available.The r esearchers s ay p eople l iving i n A ustralia a nd F rance w ho b elieve o ne p erson’s need i s g reater t han t hat o f a s ociety o r g roup, u sed h appier e mojis. C onversely, t hose from countries with closely knit societies, like Colombia, prefer using sad or angry emojis.Also, cultures like Turkey and Russia, known for their strictness, appeared tobe m ore c ontent, a t l east a ccording t o t he e mojis. O n t he o ther h and, p eople i n t olerant cultures, like Mexico, seemed unhappy or dissatisfied.The researchers believe the findings of this "first large-scale analysis of emoji usage" will help develop input methods and perhaps even expand our emoji vocabulary! Who knew the tiny image we add to brighten up our texts could show so much about our culture?1. Which country is the second-place winner of the use of emojis?A. France.B. America.C. Russia.D. Mexico.2. How are men different from women in using emojis?A. Men often choose the rarely used emojis.B. Men use more variations of the heart emoji.C. Men use emojis more casually than women.D. Men can better match the emojis with the situation.3. Which can best replace the underlined word "Conversely" in Paragraph 5?A. In general.B. In other words.C. On the contrary.D. As a result.4. What did researchers conclude from the study?A. Emojis can show people’s true feelings.B. The emoji selection is influenced by our culture.C. Emojis could strengthen bonds between people.D. The invention of smartphones brought emojis into being.BCan exercise during childhood protect you against memory loss many decades later?

Around four months later—when the rats had reached middle age—the team taught all the rats to connectan electric shock with being in a specific. When placed in the box, they froze with fear.Two weeks later, the team tested the rats in three situations: exactly the samebox i n t he s ame r oom, t he s ame b ox w ith t he r oom a rranged d ifferently, a nd a c ompletely different box in a different room.The rats without access to a running wheel when they were young now froze the same percentage of times in each of these situations, suggesting they couldn't remember which one was dangerous. But those that had been able to run in their youth froze 40to 50 percent less in both changed box settings."The results suggest the amount of physical activity when we're young, at leastfor rats, has influence on brain and cognitive health—in the form of better memories—when w e're o lder," s ays A rthur K ramer o f N ortheastern U niversity i n B oston, who has found that, in humans, exercise promotes the growth of new brain cells.5.

Researchers have been looking at ring growth from trees to make sense of past weather patterns such as droughts and rain.Combining data from the rings allowed them to create a copy of pictures of climate changes over the past 2, 000 years and this information could also be used to foresee future famine(饥荒),unrest and conflict. The project has been named Old World Drought Atlas, or OWDA.Its main author, Columbia biologist Edward Cook, has already carried out similar projects using trees to create chronological(按顺序排列的) maps of drought in Asia and North-America. He believes that combining the three atlases could throw light on the global causes of drought and climate change.The study, for instance, gave special attention to the importance of one of such causes, the North Atlantic Oscillation(波动) , in affecting climate patterns in Europe, and specifically in making Europe wetter north of the Alps and drier south of them.[来源:学&科&网] The OWDA also helped analyse historical events from a climatic perspective. For instance, the 1740-174l famine in Ireland had so far been explained by an unusually cold winter and spring, but the atlas shows that unusually low rainfall over the spring and summer of 1741 could also have played a role. Finally this made growing food nearly impossible and caused a continent-wide famine.A better grasp of these processes could even make it possible to predict future famine, unrest and conflict.Cook said,” The Old World Drought Atlas fill s a major geographic gap in the data that's important to determine patterns of climate changes in time. That's important for understanding causes of many droughts, and it's important for climate modelers to test hypotheses(假说) of climate forcing and changes.25. Why is ring growth useful in research?A. It's the best way to understand the past.B. It could be used to predict the future.C. It could be used to prevent the outbreak of droughts and rain.D. It isn't mentioned in the passage.26. People worldwide can read chronological maps of drought_____.A. in AsiaB. in AfricaC. in EuropeD. in South America27. What is the author's attitude toward the study of OWDA?A. Positive. B . Negative. C. Objective. D. Conservative.28. Why did the author of the passage mention what Cook said?A. To show he interviewed Cook himself.B. To tell us the importance of OWDA.C. To compare climate variability.D. To analyze how to predict droughts.CAfter one his close family friends known for her generosity died of cancer in 2003,26-year-old Luke Cameron decided to do at least one good deed a day, for 365 days, and he has not missed yet.The Gloucester resident performed his first good deed on January 1, 2014 with the simple act of greeting a waitress at a café he visited. The next day he bought food and drinks for some hopeless people and followed it up by donating coins to a woman, who did not have enough to feed a parking meter.(汽车停放收费表)Though most of his kind gestures have been welcomed, Luke says there have been a few awkward situations¬¬---like when he was attempting to give away a $20 bill to an elderly lady whose granddaughter was doubtful of his intentions or the time he bought a sausage roll for a homeless man who happened to be a vegetarian.The majority of Luke’s good deeds, which have been recorded in an online diary, have been about helping people with small things. He helped to take out the garbage for an elderly neighbor or helped a disabled lady pick out a dress for a party. However, the young man has also spent close to $4000 of his own money, buying groceries or gifts for the children in need.To try to encourage others to perform good deeds, Luke has created a deck of cards called “cards for kindness”. Each suggests a simple act of kindness---things like giving a stranger a hug or making peace with an enemy. The best part is that all the money he collects from distributing the cards is donated to the British Heart Foundation.Luke’s generosity has not gone unnoticed. To reward the young man, Domino’s recently awarded him a year’s supply of free pizza. Not surprisingly, the big- hearted youngster has decided to use the gift to hold special pizza days for charity.29. What inspired Luke to determine to do good deeds?A.

He raised $4000 for the children in need.DWhen Chinese women's volleyball team took on Serbia for the Olympic title, 70 percent of Chinese families watched live broadcast on TV, easily beating the audience rating for Lunar New Year Gala.Pushed to the f ourth place in group, China met the powerful and two-time Olympic champions Brazil who had unlimited support from their home fans in the quarterfinals.When almost no one believed they could win, the Chinese team came restored from one set down to beat the hosts 3-2 before they avenged their group loss on the Netherlands in the semifinals.Among all the Chinese sports teams, the women's volleyball remain the most special one, whose victories had fueled Chinese confidence in the 1980s and still represent the best things that sports can offer to the Chinese: perseverance, courage and unity.They endured extremely hard training and displayed "never say die" spirit to becoming world champions, which made the Chinese believe the country could be as strong in the world one day as the volleyball players are in sports.After over 30 years of reform and opening up nowadays, China bel ieves the "women'svolleyball spirit" is never outdated."My mom cried when I told her about Lang Ping's team's victory in Rio. She recalled her young days and said Lang was a great player. Now she is a great coach," wrote an Internet user."My father leapt in the air when China won.

This list is several best rules of etiquette that have now disappeared.Opening the DoorIn days gone by, a gentleman would always open doors for ladies. 37 This has now almost entirely disappeared¬¬¬----and it is not entirely the fault of the men. I have seen women laugh at men for opening a door for them. They seem to be confusing manners with chauvinism(大男子主义).Writing Than k-You NotesIn days gone by, whenever a person received a gift, they would write a thank-you note as soon as possible. 38 Parents would sit children down after a birthday or Christmas and coach them in their first thank-you note. It is a shame that gift giving has now become a virtual obligation and the idea of a thank-you note would be laughed at. 39We seem to have completely lost the concept of correct timing when it comes to parties these days. 40 After all, a party normally has a guest of honor----this is usually the oldest woman present.

每周一测Ⅰ. 阅读理解AThough they have been around since the late 1990’s, emoji(表情符号) usage has increased sharply with the wide use of smartphones.Recently, a team from the University of Michigan and Peking University analyzed 427 million messages sent by users in 212 countries to look into the differences in emoji use by location and culture. The findings indicated the French are emoji power users and included them in 19.7% of their texts. It’s almost twice that of Russia, where only 10.9% of the messages contained emojis. Americans came in a close third at 9.2% and was followed by Mexico at 7.9%.Also, though the handily wins the title as the most popular emoji, the French appear toprefer the . They are also more likely to use variations of the heart emoji.Not surprisingly, the study found that women tend to use emojis more extensively than men. However, they stick to a handful of favorites. Men, on the other hand, show better judgment and appear to go to extra length to find an emoji that matches the situation. But even so, they select from the top 119 of the 1 281 emojis available.The researchers say people living in Australia and France who believe one person’s need is greater than that of a society or group, used happier emojis. Conversely, those from countries with closely knit societies, like Colombia, prefer using sad or angry emojis.Also, cultures like Turkey and Russia, known for their strictness, appeared to be more content, at least according to the emojis. On the other hand, people in tolerant cultures, like Mexico, seemed unhappy or dissatisfied.The researchers believe the findings of this "first large-scale analysis of emoji usage" will help develop input methods and perhaps even expand our emoji vocabulary! Who knew the tiny image we add to brighten up our texts could show so much about our culture?1. Which country is the second-place winner of the use of emojis?A. France.B. America.C. Russia.D. Mexico.2. How are men different from women in using emojis?A. Men often choose the rarely used emojis.B. Men use more variations of the heart emoji.C. Men use emojis more casually than women.D. Men can better match the emojis with the situation.3. Which can best replace the underlined word "Conversely" in Paragraph 5?A. In general.B. In other words.C. On the contrary.D. As a result.4. What did researchers conclude from the study?A. Emojis can show people’s true feelings.B. The emoji selection is influenced by our culture.C. Emojis could strengthen bonds between people.D. The invention of smartphones brought emojis into being.BCan exercise during childhood protect you against memory loss many decades later? Exercise early in life seems to have lifelong benefits for the brain, in rats at least.“This is an animal study,but it shows that physical activity at a young age is very important—not just for physical development, but for the whole lifelong track of cognitive(认知的)development during ageing,”says Martin Wojtowicz of the University of Toronto,Canada.“In humans, it may delay the appearance of Alzheimer's symptoms(阿茨海默氏症),possibly to the point of preventing them.”Wojtowicz’s team div ided 80 young male rats into two equal groups, and placed running wheels in the cages of one group for a period of six weeks. Around four months later—when the rats had reached middle age—the team taught all the rats to connect an electric shock with being in a specific. When placed in the box, they froze with fear.Two weeks later, the team tested the rats in three situations: exactly the same box in the same room, the same box with the room arranged differently, and a completely different box in a different room.The rats without access to a running wheel when they were young now froze the same percentage of times in each of these situations, suggesting they couldn't remember which one was dangerous.But those that had been able to run in their youth froze 40 to 50 percent less in both changed box settings."The results suggest the amount of physical activity when we're young, at least for rats, has influence on brain and cognitive health—in the form of better memories—when we're older," says Arthur Kramer of Northeastern University in Boston, who has found that, in humans, exercise promotes the growth of new brain cells.5. The study shows that_____.A. physical activity is important for physical healthB. using the running wheels is of benefit to the rats’ growthC. physical activity can prevent human’s Alzheimer's symptomsD. the more exercise a rat has when young,the better memory it will possess when older6. How are Paragraph 3 and 4 mainly developed?A. By analyzing causes.B. By giving an example.C. By describing the process.D. By showing differences.7. What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. Exercise.B. Development.C. Benefit.D. Study.8. What is the author's attitude towards the animal study?A. Negative.B. Objective.C. Critical.D. Doubtful.Ⅱ. 完形填空It was an extraordinary night. The noisy Mexico City gradually 1 .

After he ran along the runway for a circleand got to the goal, he collapsed on the ground.Greenspan guessed this was a marathon athlete. Out of curiosity, he 9 to ask why the athlete wanted to run to the 10 with such a difficulty. The young man replied, "That my country sent me here 11 more than 20 000 kilometers is not to let me only get off the starting line in the competition, but to make me 12 the game. I want to run to the goal, though I have 13 all other runners, but I have a(n) 14 goal like them: I will run to the goal. 15 the audience won’t cheer me any more, my motherland is watching me16 from behind."

每周一测Ⅰ. 阅读理解AAdolescence, the period of a child’s life when they are most vulnerable to outside influences, is a relatively scary time for parents. Children of this age become the target of many negative influences while at the same time they are experiencing hormones that are raging out of control.But parents should not be fooled by their children’s rejection and rudeness. In fact children expect the constant support, guidance, and influence from their parents.I came from a family where anger always lies just below the surface, waiting for an excuse to erupt. My parents often said that my sisters and I could tell them anything. Though they promised not to be angry at whatever we would say, they couldn’t do it. Without the emotional support from my parents during my most vulnerable years, I often found myself losing my temper easily and even doing risky behaviors.There is no certain standard about parenting, but I knew exactly what I should not do after I became a parent. I knew the importance of establishing open communication and trust, which resulted in my proper reactions and my children’s trust.Our home was a quiet place, a shelter for my children’s emotional well-being. My children freely shared with me what happened in their lives, whether good or bad, shocking or humorous. As their mother, I rarely raised my voice and my reactions to their telling about their improper behaviors remained calm, no matter how I felt inside.Parenting I did was far from easy. It took patience, persistence, and consistency. Everyone hopes for beautiful relationships with their children, and everyone can have them. The theory is simple: trust is the lock—communication is the key. 1. What do we know about adolescents according to the text?A. They cannot easily control themselvesB. They are easily influenced by their parentsC. They are eager to communicate with parentsD. They don’t expect parents’ guidance and support2. Which of the following words best describes the author when she was a teenager?A. GentleB. DishonestC. HurtD. Careless3. How did the author gain trust when communicating with her children?A. By making a promiseB. By raising her voiceC. By demanding much of themD. By controlling her reactions4. The text is mainly intended to tell us __________.A. the need of riding anger at homeB. the ways of parenting adolescentsC. the importance of supporting childrenD. the benefit of building good relationships with childrenBA new report said that different types of plants can release some chemical into the air to help other plants. These chemical warnings all have the same purpose —to spread information about one plant's disease or infestation so other plants can defend themselves. But exactly how plants receive and act on many of these signals is still mysterious.In this week’s Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers in Japan offered some explanations. They had identified one chemical message and traced it all the way from release to action.The scientists looked at tomato plants infested by a common pest, the cutworm. The researchers studied leaves from exposed and unexposed plants. They found onecompound showed up more often in the exposed plants. The substance is called Hex Vic. When the scientists fed Hex Vic to cutworms, it knocked down their survival rate by 17%. The scientists identified the source of Hex Vic, and sprayed it lightly over healthy plants. Those plants were then able to start producing the cutworm-killing Hex Vic. Researchers confirmed that uninfected plants have to build their own weapons to fight off bugs and disease. How do they know when to play defense? They are warned first by their friendly plant neighbors.It is a complex tale, and it may be happening in more plant species than tomatoes. It may also be happening with more chemical signals that are still unknown to us. Further studies are needed to increase agricultural efficiency.5. Which is the way used by plants to warn their neighbors?A. Using of winds.B. Identifying the chemicals.C. Releasing some chemicals.D. Being exposed early.6. It can be inferred from the text that ________.A. farmers may benefit from the further studiesB. the phenomenon may be happening in less plant species than tomatoesC. there are not chemical signalsD. plants are warned first by their neighbors7. What’s the function of Hex Vic?A. It sprays over healthy plants.B. It shows up more.C. It cures the disease.D. It damages the cutworm’s body.8. The passage is likely to appear in ________.A. a newspaper advertisementB. a physics textbookC. a science magazineD. a finance reportⅡ. 完形填空When I was younger, I was addicted to the stories in magic books, and I thirstily 1 them. And like most of the 2 of these stories I secretly wished for magical power for myself. I wanted to be able to 3 make my pain disappear, to make my 4 go away, and to have power over this world that so often has 5 over us.6 I got older, however, I realized that there was no such thing as magic and the7 reality of life set in. I struggled through a long period of8 . I had daily pain from a back injury that never healed right. I felt sadness and9 when both of my sons were diagnosed 10 Autism. I still sometimes daydreamed about magic but in time even that 11 .Then one day I began to 12 that a different kind of magic called LOVE grew stronger in my heart, soul and 13 day by day. This magic connected me to my own best self and to all of 14 souls in this world. It didn’t make me15 my poverty but it made every day of my life 16 . It didn’t make my back pain go away but it helped me 17 it so much better. It didn’t cure my18 Autism but it helped me see their beautiful, 19 , eternal, and joyful souls.There is such a thing as magic in each one of us in this world. This magic is called LOVE. May you choose it, share it, and 20 in it every single day of your life.1. A.obtained B.found C.read D.acquired2. A.parents B.readers C.authorsD.children3.
