Departure time.BIf there's one thing I' ve learned from my years of being a kid, it' s that you have ZERO control over your own life.Ever since school ended, I haven' t had anything I' ve needed to do or anywhere I' ve needed to be.As long as the air-conditioning(空调) was working and the TV remote had batteries in it, I'was ready for a relaxing summer holiday.But then, out of the blue, this happened - " Pack your bags. We' re going on a road trip ! " Mom said excitedly.This isn't the first time Mom has sprung a trip on us without any warming. Last year on the first day of summer, she said we were going .to visit Aunt Loretta at the nursing home.It wasn't exactly my idea of a fun way to kick off the summer. One time when we visited Aunt Loretta, her roommate grasped me and wouldn' t let me go until someone gave her a chocolate cookie !Mom kept talking about going to the nursing home for a whole day, which made me worry a lot. But at breakfast the next morning, she told us where we were really going - Disney World.I was very happy, because I was really worried about spending the whole week at the nursing home. So was Dad.But when my little brother, Danny, heard about the change he became very angry. Mom had talked up the Aunt Loretta trip so much that Danny was actually excited about going there.We ended up putting off our trip to Disney so we could visit Aunt Loretta.I tried to talk Mom into letting us do something normal, like going to a water park for the day, but she didn't want to hear it. She said that spending a lot of time together in the car would be a " bonding" experience for the whole family.60. What did the author prefer to do during his summer holidays?A. Visit Aunt Loretta.B. Travel with his family.C. Look after his little brother.D. Watch TV comfortably at home.61. From the passage, we can learn that the author_______A. loved his aunt very muchB. got pretty excited about the road tripC. felt helpless with his mother's surprise tripsD. blamed Danny for not going to Disney World62. Who makes the final decision in the family?A. The author.B.Mom.C.Dad.D. Aunt Loretta63. The author wrote the passage to_______A. remember his motherB. tell the story of his auntC. express his love for his brotherD. share with readers his childhood experiencesCCulture ShockThe term, culture shock, describes the anxiety produced when a person moves to a completely new environment. This term expresses the lack of direction, the feeling of not knowing what to do, and not knowing what is appropriate or inappropriate. The feeling of culture shock generally sets in after the first few weeks of coming to a new place.We can describe culture shock as the physical and emotional discomfort one suffers when coming to live in another country or place. Often, the way that we lived before is not accepted as or considered as normal in the new place. Everything is different, for example, not speaking the language, not knowing how to use ba nking machines and so forth.Although one can experience real pain from culture shock, it is also an opportunity for resetting one' s life objectives. It is a great opportunity for learning and acquiring new viewpoints. Culture shock can make one develop a better understanding of oneself.Culture shock has many stages. The first stage is called the "honeymoon" stage. The new arrival may feel excited as everything is new.In the second stage, a person may encounter some difficult times in daily life. For example, communication difficulties may occur such as not being understood. There may be feelings of discontent, anger, sadness, and feeling incompetence. This happens when a person is trying to adapt to a new culture. Transition (过渡) between the old methods and those of the new country is a difficult process and takes time to complete.The third stage is characterized by gaining some understanding of the new culture. One may start to feel a certain psychological balance. The new arrival may start to have a feeling of direction and want to belong.In the fourth stage, the person realizes that the new culture has good and bad things to offer. The person has a more solid feeling of belonging and starts to set goals for living.The fifth stage is called the " re-entry shock". This occurs when a return to thecountry of origin is made. One may find that things are no longer the same. For example, some of the newly acquired customs are not in use in the old culture.Many factors (因素) contribute to the length and effects of culture shock. For example, the individual' s state of mental health, type of personality, previous experiences, familiarity with the language, and level of education. So the five stages are present at different times and each person has their own way of reacting. 64. What do we learn about culture shock?64. What do we learn about culture shock?A. It has negative effect on people.B. Its effect can differ from person to person.C. It disappears when people return to their homelands.D. It can be avoided if one can understand the language.65. Which stage of culture shock is Tommy in?Tommy moved to France with his parents two months ago. But now he still can not get used to the life there. He also has problems in schooling. Even worse, he doesn't think anybody cares about him.A. Stage 2.B. Stage 3.C. Stage 4.D. Stage 5.66. The main purpose of the passage is to________A. discuss and clarifyB. argue and adviseC. introduce and explainD. compare and evaluateDCertainly, a well-rounded education is the foundation from which all of us spring forth. I am grateful to the many incredible teachers who have inspired me to do greater things, and have fired my enthusiasm for everlasting learning!I have also been honored to have the most amazing teachers in all of my children's lives. These are extraordinary people who not only teach our children, but love them, challenge them, and provide an environment where a child learns how to learn.But, sometimes I wonder if the outline of our educational plan is lacking something. I watched the movie Easy A with my older daughter. The main character' s parents were loving, supportive, and built great confidence in their daughter and developed her ability to handle her own problems.There was a scene where the mother was speaking to the younger child and he announced that he received an "A" on his spelling test. She replied, "That' s great, honey, but everything has spell check these days. " It was funny --- but TRUE ! I don't mean that we shouldn't teach our children how to spell, but maybe some of our time should be spent educating them about the dangers of posting things on Facebook.Maybe we might want to spend time showing them how real life works - the credit card isn't free money - you will have to pay it back at sometime. Oh, and get this - they charge you for borrowing that money. Perhaps, we should spend some time on interpersonal relationships. I worry that our kids do not know how to relate to one another.Choosing a career (职业) is a daunting task. My daughter is in her second year in college and has changed her major twice. It' s not that she didn' t know what she wanted to do. What she "wanted to do" and the degree she chose did not match.I have learned many college students do not know what they want to do because they haven' t seen what it looks like in the real world. Being a journalist in the real world looks very different from writing stories. Maybe if we spent some time exposing them to real life experience - maybe two or three courses m areas of interest in high school that give them a "feel" for what that particular field would look like, they might be better prepared. I do not know the solution, but it seems that it should at least be a topic of discussion.67. Why does the author mention the movie Easy A?A. To prove the importance of book learning.B. To show the parents' ignorance of spelling.C. To lead to the topic he is going to talk about.D. To share with the readers his feeling about the movie.68. The author believes thatA. students need to focus on the skills in learningB. parents and school should be consistent in educationC. his daughter is smart enough to make her own choiceD. courses in areas of interest in high schools will benefit students69. The underlined word "daunting" in Paragraph 6 probably means_____A. discouragingB. specificC. rewardingD. regular70. What is mainly discussed in the passage?A. Schools should prepare students for the real life.B. What students learn in school should be practiced in life.C. Life experience is of greater importance than school education.D. Students should spend more time discussing practical problems.第二节七选五（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分）Roger Sperry and Robert Ornstein of the California Institute of Technology, Nobel prize winners, discovered that the human brain has two sides, and each side has different work to do.The left side of the brain controls language and number and it analyses and reasons. ___71__ It controls our appreciation of music and our sense of rhythm.It is also the right side of our brain which daydreams.Leonardo da Vinci was the great painter and sculptor. He was also an architect, a scientist and an inventor!____72___ When he invented machines he used both his imaginative ability and his analytical ability.____73__ Albert Einstein enjoyed art, playing the violin and sailing. Indeed, Einstein said his scientific discoveries grew from his imagination rather than from analysis, reason and language. He said that written and spoken words were not important in his thinking. The story goes that Einstein was daydreaming one summer's day whilesitting on a hill. He imagined that he was riding on sunbeams to the far distance of the universe. Then he found that he had returned to the sun. So he realized that the universe must curve(弯曲).___74__ He then used the left side of his brain to apply analysis, number and reason. And finally he used language to explain it.Traditional education in schools encourages us to use the left side of our brains. Language, number, analysis and reason are given more importance in our schools than imagination and daydreaming. Why don' t we give more value to visual thinking? Why jump on one foot if we have two perfectly good legs !___75__ We need to use our imagination to think of solutions to problems and to enjoy emotional and artistic experiences. And we need to be logical able to analyze and organize in order to survive day by day.A. We benefit by thinking creatively.B. We all need both sides of our brain.C. He got this idea by using his imagination.D. Great scientists and great artists are similar.E.He was considered crazy for his strange ideas.F.He used both sides of his brain within each activity.H.The right side controls our imagination and our understanding of space.第四部分：书面表达（共两节，35分）第一节（15分）你校英语社团将要排演英语话剧Sound of Music，需要一些演员。

The spider wasn't trying to be something else, like a butterfly or a bee, Marissa thought. It was happy to be exactly what it was and to do what it was good at.What came naturally to Marissa was2. She could paint or draw all day long and never get bored. However, a few weeks ago Marissa signed up for high jump. Because her mother had been a high jump3in school, she thought it would make her mother happy. But now she4that however hard she worked, she would never be a high jump star like her mother.One night, halfway through her homework, Marissa fell5. When she woke up, the clock read 1:00 A.M. Marissa got into a panic. There was still somuch6to do, but she really needed her rest for track practice. Marissa had always been a good student, but now track was risking her7.Then a dark thought crossed Marissa's mind. If she8some of her classes, she would be off the track team. That was one way to solve her problem.After a week of9her homework, letters had been mailed out to parents listing grades, and Marissa knew the letters would show that her gradeshad10 a lot.

When you give blood, you'll be doing one of the most amazing things anybody could dream of—saving a life.All types of blood are needed —not just rare ones. In fact, the commoner the blood type, the more are needed. So even if your blood is one of the most common types—group O for example—you can be sure that by donating three times a year, you really are doing something amazing.What is the donation process?The donation will last about an hour in all. When you arrive, you will be asked a few questions about your health. Then a drop of blood will be taken and tested just to make sure you're not anemic（贫血）. If all is well, your donation will be taken.This only takes about ten minutes, during which time 470ml of blood will be collected.Most people hardly feel a thing. After a short rest, a drink and biscuits, you'll be up and ready to go. All equipment used in the collection of your blood is new and is never reused, so you don't have to worry about risks to your health in the collection of your blood.Who can become a blood donor?Becoming a blood donor really is very simple. As long as you're in good health and aged between 17 and 60, you can become a blood donor. If you would like more information or advice, or you want to become a blood donor, ring the donor helpline on 0845 7711. The donor helpline is open 24 hours a day—every day of the year.(1) Which is the subtitle of Paragraph 2?A. Why should you donate blood?B. What types of blood are needed?C.

I throw it under the bed. The piles of envelopes are growing.The envelopes were applications to all the colleges I was supposed to attend. I did open the first envelope. Then I saw the application, all those blank spaces I was supposed to fill with my own writing, spaces for my name and birth date and grade average and…statement of purpose. I looked at them for a long time. I could write for hours and not fill all those spaces. So I put the application back in the envelope.I would fill it out the next day, when I had time. But another envelope arrived. And then the pile began.The pile scares me—it is really like a monster. All the while, I feel the weight of a million envelopes raining down on my head until my grandmother calls me and wants to know how I am."I am overcome by too many tasks, " I say."Honey, you just take it bit by bit, " she says, and she reminds me about the green beans.When I was a little kid I hated green beans. But my mom said I couldn't leave the table until I ate ten green beans. All alone at the table, I stared at the green beans for what seemed like hours. It was amountain of green beans. I couldn't do it.My grandma came to me and asked if I could eat one green bean."But Grandma, I have to eat ten!"She said all I had to do was to eat one green bean. One tiny little green bean. So I ate one. It was bad, but not as bad as I'd thought it would be. Then she asked me again if I could eat one. So I ate one green bean nine more times.My grandma doesn't know about the envelopes, but she tells me anyone can do one thing every day.Back in my room, I lay down on the bed. Just like I used to do when I was a little kid, I hang my head down to look at the pile of envelopes. There it is. But instead of a monster, I see a pile of greenbeans. Who's afraid of green beans?(1) Envelopes are piling up because the author _______.A. doesn't know how to replyB. feels bored of the paper workC. doesn't want to attend collegeD. has been too busy to open them(2) What does the author learn from the story of the green beans?A.

He will eat up the green beans.19、【来源】 2014年北京丰台区高三二模（C篇）第19~22题Have you ever looked toward the sky on a fall day and witnessed a group of migrating birds? If so, you probably noted the V-shaped formation of the birds or the birds flying in a ball-like formation. Why do birds fly this way? Many theories have been developed to explain the formation patterns of different types of birds.One theory is that birds fly in certain formations to take advantage of the laws of nature. The birds know that flying in a V-shaped pattern will save energy. Like the lead cyclist in a race who decreases wind force for the cyclists who follow, the lead bird cuts wind force for the birds that follow. This decrease in wind force means that the birds use up to 70 percent less energy during their flight. When the lead bird becomes tired, a more rested bird takes over that position.But saving energy is important for more than one reason. Sometimes food is short during migration flights. Keeping energy enables the birds to fly longer distances between meals.When food is sighted, the birds guide one another in a different way. When a bird identifies a familiar feeding area, it might turn around in order to signal the group to change direction. Then, this bird becomes the new leader. It helps guarantee that other birds will know exactly where it is going. Then the whole group makes a change in direction, gently streaming from the sky down to the ground.This formation is like an arrow pointing to the location of food.Scientists have also studied the birds that sometimes fly in a ball-like formation. Researchers believe that the birds come together if a predator（天敌） is spotted. The predator may then become impatient waiting for a single bird to fly away from the group. The birds will often dip and dive as a group, frustrating even the most persistent enemy. Scientists report that this is a very effective method of defense against an attack.The birds care for their fellow fliers through teamwork. As transportation expert Henry Ford once said, "If everyone is moving forward together, then success takes care of itself." When it comes to teamwork, these feathered fliers are a soaring success!(1) According to the passage, we can learn that birds.A. move faster than cyclistsB. prefer to fly in a V formationC. are smarter than other animalsD. play different roles in a formation(2) When food is sighted,.A. the group follows the discovererB. the lead bird decides what to doC. the discoverer leaves the groupD. the whole group forms a stream(3) To protect themselves from attack, birds will.A. break into groupsB. come close togetherC. change directionsD. fly up and down(4) Which is the best title for the passage?A. A Bird's Eye View of Teamwork.B. Success Takes Care of Itself.C. The Strongest Will Survive.D. A Science Behind Flying.20、【来源】 2014年北京丰台区高三二模（D篇）第20题A MythIt is true that world population is growing, but this is not the cause of our current and future global problems. Believing this will cause us to ignore the real problem and risk long-term damage to our planet.Let me start by explaining why overpopulation is a TAL#NBSP myth. For one thing, the UN Population Division regularly predicts population growth but provides a low variant （变量）, medium variant, and high variant to factor in various possibilities. In the 2010 revision, their high variant suggests that the world population will be almost 16 billion in 2100, but the low variant predicts it will peak at 8 billion and decrease to just over 6 billion by 2100. In most cases, it is the low variant that has come true in the past, suggesting the same will be true of their future population predictions. In addition to this, the size of families is actually decreasing.For another, if the Earth is overpopulated, there needs to be insufficient （短缺）food, water, and space for humans to live. However, Indian economist RajKrishna estimates that India alone is able to increase crop produce to the point of providing the entire world's food supply. The World Food Programme confirms that there is sufficient food grown to feed the world and there is the same amount of fresh water on the planet now as there was 10, 000 years ago. So how is it possible that the number of people in the world is affecting our planet?Therefore, it is not an increase in population but an increase in consumption that is a severe threat. Materialism and overconsumption are facts of life for everybody in the western world, as possessions reflect a person's status in society and people strive to obtain happiness through owning the latest fashionable goods. Not only that, but waste is a common occurrence which has a huge effect on our resources. It is a sad truth that 80% of the world's resources are currently used by just 20% of the world's population.Our overconsumption must be addressed now to make our lives more sustainable （可持续的）and avoid continuing the terrible damage to the environment we are causing. The key is education. If we do not work towards this but instead focus on the wrong issue, we may find ourselves living on a planet that can no longer sustain human life.(1) According to the author, what causes our current and future global problems?A. The increase in population.B. Shortage of food and water.C. The fast growth of material needs.D. Failure to protect the environment.(2) The underlined word "myth" in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to.A. factB. misconceptionC. possibilityD. uncertainty(3) The author stresses that.A. people should save food and waterB. economists are making wrong predictionsC. wrong judgment leads to serious consequencesD. measures should be taken to reduce population(4) What is mainly discussed in the passage?A. The real cause of global problems.B. The severe effect of overpopulation.C. Reasonable use of natural resources.D. Methods to reduce overconsumption.四、七选五21、【来源】 2014年北京丰台区高三二模第21题2016~2017学年北京东城区北京汇文中学高一上学期期末第71~75题7.5分2017~2018学年广东广州越秀区广州市执信中学高一上学期期中Is Online School for You?Have you ever wished you didn't have to wake up early and go all the way to school? For 700, 000 American kids, this wish comes true.1This kind of learning has different names: online learning or distance learning. Regardless of what it is called, this idea may create an impression of a lonely kid reading pages of information on a computer screen rather than from a book or an image of another kid spending the day playing video games instead of learning mathematics or reading a book. Where online education is concerned, both of these are false! Actually, online learning simply means learning differently.2Flexibility is the main advantage. Students can attend school wherever and whenever they desire. Homework can be turned in from anywhere the student has Internet access. Additionally, many online schools will allow students to work at their own pace.Another advantage of online schooling is with the variety of courses. Most online schools teach the same basic classes like English, math, science, and history.3However, traditional schools are often unable to offer these types of classes if there are not enough students.Online schools also have different types of learning tools for kids to use. For example, many online schools have special Web sites where only students registered in online classes can watch videos, see lessons presented, or chat with teachers and other students. Some online schools have live class times where students can call and talk with the teacher directly.4Computer technology is amazing, and we use computers for chatting with our friends, listening to music, and playing games.5Since 2006, at least 38 states either have their own online schools or made rules for students attending them. It looks like online schools are here to stay, but only you can decide if this type of learning is right for you.A. Online schools offer many benefits for the learners.B. Of course, there are some drawbacks of going to school online.C. Almost every part of our lives is affected by it, and school is no exception（例外）.D. They attend school over the Internet using ordinary home or library computers.E. Other online schools even have online clubs where kids can talk about their hobbies.F. Some online schools also offer specialized classes in subjects such as space science, French, or zoology.G. For some students, online school may be ideal, but for others, traditional school may better meet their needs.五、书面表达22、【来源】 2014年北京丰台区高三二模第22题2019~2020学年北京东城区北京市第五中学高一上学期期中第71题15分假设你是红星中学高二（1）班的学生李华，你的英国笔友Chris刚刚转学，感到一切都很陌生。

When my parents andI1at her house, we found she had waited up all night for us.

Then I found that my mother was not the best teacher for me. It wasn't that she shouted, or told me that I was doing poorly. As you can imagine, my mother's "helpful instructions" only managed to make me more nervous.Since I could no longer practice with her, the job was placed in the hands of my father. The idea of learning from Dad was not one that thrilled me. I loved him dearly, but I just did not see Dad as someone I could be comfortable learning from. He almost never talked. We shared a typical father-daughter relationship. He'd ask how school was, and I'd say it was fine. Unfortunately, that was the most of our conversations. Spending hours alone with someone who might as well have been a stranger really scared me.As we got into the car that first time, I was not surprised at what happened. Dad and I drove around, saying almost nothing, aside from a few instructions on how to turn. As my lessons went on, however,things began to change. Dad would turn the radio up so I could fully appreciate his favorite Stones music. And he actually began talking. I was soon hearing about past failed dates, "basic body" gym class, and other tales from his past, including some of his first meeting with Mom.Dad's sudden chattiness was shocking until I thought about why he was telling me so much in the car. In all the years that I had wondered why my father never spoke that much, I had never stopped to consider that it was because I had never bothered to listen. Homework, friends, and even TV had all called me away from him, and, consequently, I never thought my quiet father had anything to say.Since I began driving with him, my driving skill has greatly increased. More important, though, is that my knowledge of who my father is has also increased. Just living with him wasn't enough—it took driving with him for me to get to know someone who was a mystery.(1) The author couldn't practice driving with her mother because.A. she couldn't talk with her motherB. her father wanted to teach herC. her mother made her nervousD. she didn't trust her mother(2) At first, the idea of learning driving from her father made her.A. happyB. uneasyC. satisfiedD. disappointed(3) What surprised the author when the driving lessons went on?A. Her Dad liked modern music.B. Her Dad was the best teacher.C. Her Dad was a chatty person.D. Her Dad told her his sad stories.(4) With her story "Car Talk", the author indicates that.A. fathers love their daughters dearlyB. mothers are less patient than fathersC. family members need real communicationD. it takes time to improve the father-daughter relationship19、【来源】 2014年北京丰台区高三一模（C篇）第19题Now Hear ThisWhat do former American president Bill Clinton and rock musician Pete Townshend have in common? Both men have hearing damage from exposure to loud music, and both now wear hearing aids as a consequence. As a teenager, Clinton played saxophone in a band. Townshend, who has the more severe hearing loss, was aguitarist for a band called the Who. He is one of the first rock musicians to call the public's attention to the problem of hearing loss from exposure to loud music.Temporary hearing loss can happen after only 15 minutes of listening to loud music. One early warning sign is when your ears begin to feel warm while you listen to music at a rock concert or through headphones. One later is that an unusual sound or a ringing is sometimes produced in your head after the concert."What happens is that the hair cells in the inner ear are damaged, but they're not dead, " says physician and ear specialist Dr. Sam Levine.According to Dr. Levine, if you avoid further exposure to loud noise, it's possible to recondition the cells somewhat. However, he adds, "Eventually, over a long period of time, hair cells are permanently damaged." And this is no small problem.What sound level is dangerous? According to Dr. Levine, regular exposure to noise above 85 decibels （分贝）is considered dangerous. The chart below offers a comparison of decibel levels to certain sounds. Here's another measurement you can use. If you're at a rock concert and the music is so loud that you have to shout to make yourself heard, you're at risk for hearing loss. That's when wearing protective devices such as earplugs becomes critical.The facts are pretty frightening. But are rock bands turning down the volume.'? Most aren't. "Rock music is supposed to be loud, " says drummer Andrew Sather. "I wouldn't have it any other way. And neither would the real fans of rock. "Continued exposure to loud music and the failure to wear earplugs can lead to deafness, according to Dr. Levine.He states, "There's no cure for hearing loss. Your ears are trying to tell you something. That ringing is the scream of your hair cells dying. Each time that happens, more and more damage is done."

A variety of different arguments have been put forward about it.Smith, a sociologist, argued that dolphin parks provide the only opportunity for much of the public to see marine mammals. As this argument goes, most Australians live in cities and never get to see these animals. Marine parks allow the average Australian to appreciate our marine wildlife. However, in fact, there are many places where they can be seen in the wild. Moreover, these places do not charge an overpriced entry fee— they are free.Dr. Alison Lane, the director of the Cairns Marine Science Institute, insists that we need marine parks for scientific research. She argues that much of our knowledge of marine mammals comes from studies which were undertaken at marine parks. The knowledge which is obtained at marine parks can be useful for planning for the preservation of marine mammal species. However, Jones, a zoologist, explains that park research is only useful for understanding captive animals and is not useful for learning about animals in the wild. Their diets are different, they have significantly lower life lengths and they are more likely to have a disease. In addition, marine mammals in dolphin parks are trained and this means that their patterns of social behavior are changed.The Marine Park Owners Association holds that marine parks attract a lot of foreign tourists. This position goes on to state that these tourists spend a lot of money, increasing our foreign exchange earnings and assisting our national balance of payments. However, foreign tourists would still come to Australia if the parks were closed down. Indeed, surveys of overseas tourists show that they come here for a variety of other reasons and not to visit places like SeaWorld. Tourists come here to see our native wildlife in its natural environment and not to see it in cages and concrete pools. They can see animals in those conditions in their own countries.In a word, perhaps an agreement cannot be reached now. However, a question does deserve our consideration: If we continue with our past crimes against these creatures, how will our future generations view us?(1) Who support(s) the idea of closing marine parks?A. Most Australians.B. Alison Lane.C. Smith.D. Jones.(2) What does the author intend to tell us in Paragraph 3 ?A. The results from studies are valuable in animal preservation.B. Scientific research at the marine parks has its limitations.C. Captive animals have biology changes in marine parks.D. Human behavior causes harmful effects on the animals.(3) Which is NOT the reason to keep marine parks?A. For entertainment purpose.B. For scientific research purpose.C. For economic purpose.D. For political purpose.(4) The author tries to persuade readers to accept his argument mainly by.A. pointing out the problems with keeping the marine parksB. using evidence he has collected at the marine parksC. discussing the advantages of animals' natural homesD. questioning the way the animals are studied四、七选五21、【来源】 2014年北京丰台区高三一模第21题2020~2021学年12月北京西城区北京市第四十三中学月考第36~40题10分(每题2分)Stage FrightImagine that you are an actor performing in a play for the first time.You have learned all your lines and you know where to walk on stage. Waiting behind the closed curtain, you can hear the audience whispering and taking their seats.Then your big moment arrives! The curtain goes up, and the crowd falls silent. All you can see is the spotlight shining down on you.1The inside of your mouth is dry, and your hands are wet.If you have experienced a moment like this, you know all too well what it means to have stage fright. It is one of the most common types of fear and tends to strike people when they find themselves at the center of attention.2People experience this fear when playing sports, giving a presentation, or even speaking in class. A person who suffers from stage fright may get sweaty hands, a dry mouth, a tight throat, or shaky knees. Stage fright is actually a form of panic, and these feelings are very real.3The experience differs from person to person, but the same chemical process occurs in each of us. In reaction to anxiety, our bodies produce a chemical that prepares us toeither fight or run away quickly. Scientists refer to this as our bodies' "fight or flight" reaction. As a result, we feel great energy that makes our hands sweat, our hearts race, and our knees shake.4Practicing your performance and following some simple tips can help calm nerves and manage the feelings caused by anxiety. First, dress comfortably and appropriately. Second, before the performance, take deep breaths and stretch to help relax your body. Third,stay away from drinks that contain caffeine.5Instead, try a banana! Some doctors believe that eating a banana can help calm your heart and the rest of your body. Finally, when you look into a crowd, try to focus on particular people instead of the whole group. These tips have helped many people learn to deal with their fears.A. These might make your heart race even faster.B. You don't have to be on stage to get stage fright.C. Stage fright is part of the body's reaction to stress.D. You try to speak your lines, but nothing seems to come out.E. With practice, we can learn how to relax while playing sports.F. The good news about stage fright is that here are ways to deal with it.G. However, there is a time when stage fright prevents you from stepping on stage.五、书面表达22、【来源】 2014年北京丰台区高三一模第22题假设你是红星中学高二（1）班的学生李华，下个月英国Saint Gorge High School的交换学生要来你校学习。
