This geographic distanee allowed us to only visit our ”grandparents once a year, either at Christmas or duri ng summer vacatio n.Most of my classmates lived n ear their gran dpare nts, and I would rout in ely hear stories of extended families （大家庭）regularly spending time with one another, fishing at “grandpa' s” house or going over to “grandma' s” for her famous fried chicke n. We were disappo in ted that we did not get to spe nd more time with ourgran dpare nts, but our love for them rema ined deep and strong.We always expected a road trip to Oklahoma. Wewould count the days, and when Day I came, the entire family would pile into the car at four o' clock in the morning. Crossing the Mississippi River into Louisiana, the Iandscapes （风景）changed. Crossing the Red River in Oklahoma, we were in a foreign world.Every trip to see mygrandparents can' t be without bringing delight. Wejumped out of the car in their driveway to be met with bear hugs. My gran dpare nts wan ted to know everything about their grandehildren, and we would sit for hours and tell story after story. Gran dma had a meal pla nn ed, and you could bet she fixed her grandsons favorite foods. Of course the best part of the visit was that wewere able to do whatever we wan ted without puni shme nt from our gran dpare nts. Gran dma and Gran dpa always had prese nts for us, n eat see nic trips pla nned and lovely surprises, such as the time we got to go to a local restaura nt and eat the world ' s largest hamburge r.9. The family don ' t visit the grandparents often because __________ r__.A. they live far away from each otherB. they seldom have a vacati onC. they are all busy with their workD. they have a bad attitude to them10. When ever the author and his brother met their gran dpare nts, they _____ .A. shared cook ing skills with each otherB. found they werein a foreig n worldC. were all full of great exciteme ntD. seemed not to be familiarwith each other11. What can we infer from the author ' s story ?A. Dista nee leads to the most beautiful sce ne.B. Physical separation （实际的分离）hurts the heart deeply.C. Distanee can ' t break the bond （纽带）of love.D. Family life is filled with love and understanding.DVacation is a time for refreshment. In work, we are often called to think. Sometimes, it ' s good to give our brains a rest. Without a break, we may not be able to perform up to our pote ntial. This can be a problem, not only for the employee, but for the employer as well.“ The main ben efit of vacati on is for the worker to come back en ergized（有活力的）,” says Weaver. “If they haven ' t had a break, then they ' re not coming backwith newenergy. They haven' t had a chanee to step back and get perspective （远景）， and come back with renewed enthusiasm（热情）.”Long work ing hours without a break, in security （不安）about one' s job, and other work-related worries can lead to bur nout and stress. Huma ns can usually adapt to pressure, but not for a limitless amount of time.“ It is a problem of relating good workers and having them loyal to the firm while they ' re there , ” says David Maume, PhD, professor of sociology at the University of Cincinnati. He says burnout can also affect employees' productivity, creativity,and effective ness.In addition, high levels of stress are likely to be precursors （前兆）to depression,which can hit both the employer and employee ' s pocketbook. Even people who managerto rema in productive at work can have problems. If they ' re always at work, the n they ' re not with their family and friends. If they ' re working while on vacation, for the time that they ' re on the job, they ' re not really present.An unbalaneed emphasis on work can strain family and social life. When you comeup for air, you may see that you ' re alone, or that your r elati on ships have gone on without you.12. The underlined word “there ” in the fourth paragraph probably refers to ______________A. the vacati onB. the uni versityC. the compa nyD. the home13. What ' s the main ben efit of a vacati on?A. The worker can step back and get more excitedB. The worker can come back with new en ergy.C. The worker can adapt to pressure much better.D. The man ager can be more creative.14. When a worker is always at work, he is likely to get more and more ________ .A. activeB. en ergeticC. skillfulD. abse nt-min ded15. Which of the following is the best title of the text?A. Why the workers n eed new en ergy.B. How to deal with the daily pressure.C. How to spe nd the vacati on effectively.D. Why the workers n eed a vacatio n.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

ProblemB. ExcuseC. LetterD. Present5.What did the author do when the salesman called him the second time？______A. He gave full attention to what he said.B. He talked excitedly with him about phone plans.C. He stayed politely for him to finish speaking.D. He advised the salesman to improve his French.6.Which of the following is RIGHT according to the passage？______A. The author advised the salesman not to call him back.B.

Verbal violence is common in daily life.D. We should spare more time for salesmen.(2021·广东省揭阳市·月考试卷)CHow many phone numbers can you remember by heart？It's probably fewer than you would like.Actually,you are not alone.Out of more than 1，000 Americans who were surveyed,more than half said that they couldn't recall（回忆起）the phone numbers of their friends and neighbors.In their eyes,there is no point in filling their heads with phone numbers if they are all stored in smart phones that are with them almost all the time.In fact,most people are suffering from a sort of digital amnesia（数码健忘）.More than 90% of those surveyed agreed that they used the Internet as an online of their brains.Rote memorization （死记硬背）was once an important part of modern education,but we just need a click or slide now.That's making us worse at remembering things.Researchers found that when people expected to use the information online,they were less likely to remember actual facts,but more likely to remember how to find them.As a result,we are already becoming ones with our computer tools,growing into interconnected systems that remember less by knowing information than by knowing where the information can be found. However,some believe it isn't necessarily a bad thing--maybe it gives them more chances to think through things.We certainly acquire more knowledge now than ever,even if it isn't all stored in our brains.Even so,I still believe that there are more risks（风险）to this new world of memory beyond losing our ability to recall some information such as who the 15th President was.That kind of information may always be a click away,but the important things are personal ones,like the way your parents smiled at your wedding.It's harder to recall or find online.If you're depending on yourself to keep track of those memories,they will be much more meaningful.8.Paragraph 1 is mainly used to ______ .A. serve as the backgroundB. introduce the topicC. explain new researchD. show some information to readers9.What's the main cause of people's suffering from digital amnesia from the paragraph 2？______A. Dealing with too many things.B. Seldom thinking about questions.C. Depending on the Internet too much.D. The changes of their memories.10.It can be learned from the passage that ______ .A. over 90% people are suffering from digital amnesiaB. people can gain knowledge more easily than beforeC. rote memorization no longer exists in modern educationD. People find it hard to remember how to find information11.What's the author's attitude（态度）towards people's memories now through the lastparagraph？______A. WorriedB. HappyC. DisappointedD. Satisfied(2021·广东省揭阳市·月考试卷)You're growing up.That means you're probably experiencing lots of changes,all at once.Your body is changing.It might even seem as if your entire self is changing.It can be confusing（令人困惑的）and even scary.（1）______ .And it's good! Growing up means that you can do more,learn more,and start to make your mark on the world.In order for that to happen,your body produces chemicals called hormones（荷尔蒙）that help both body and mind grow.Hormone levels change constantly,rising and falling.（2）______ .But it's partly to blame for intense emotions,surprising reactions,and mood swings. Because of the way your brain develops,it is somewhat ruled by emotions now and through your teen years.As a result,growing up can seem like an emotional roller coaster（过山车）!（3）______ .◆Take care of yourself.If you eat right,sleep enough,and get good exercise,your brain will be much more able to deal with the stress.◆（4）______ .When you feel your moods（心情）swinging or you're upset,or confused,some quiet time will allow you to gather your thoughts and get calmer.◆Practice relaxing your body and deep breathing when you wake up and when you go to bed.（5）______ .Besides,when stuff（事情）happens during the day,you'll be able to calm yourself quickly with a deep breath or two before you react.Your body is changing.A.Take a time out.B.But the truth is that it happens to every teen（青少年）.C.Work out regularly to keep physically fit.D.This changing is needed for your body's development.E.It will help you fall asleep and start the morning right.F.Here are a few things you can do to make the ride smoother（更顺畅）.ually,these feelings settle down when you realize what is going on.12.

They order clothes and they don’t fit. People get very unhappy.”Wong and her design partner, Xuaner “Cecilia” Zhang, are Team White Mirror, creators of what they call a “virtua l (虚拟)fitting room”. Their goal is simple and consumer-friendly: to let online clothing shoppers have a perfect fit and a perfect look when shopping every time. Both women are from China, Wong from Hong Kong and Zhang from Beijing. They both order most of their clothing online. They got the idea from their own experience as consumers and from listening to the complaints of friends and relatives. “They say, ‘The color is wrong’ or ‘I got t he right size but it still does not fit.’ We want to make it like you’re in the store trying on the clothes,” Zhang said.Using a Kinect developed by Microsoft for use with its Xbox 360 video game player, Zhang scans Wong and turns her image(影像) into, in effect, a virtual model, keeping Wong’s dimensions (尺寸), and even her skin and hair color. “We put the clothes on the shopper’s 3-D body models and show how they look when they are dressed,” Wong said. So far, Wong and Zhang have adapted the software to show dresses and shirts, and they are now working on shorts.Asked if she thought men as well as women might be interested in using their virtual fitting room, Wong said, “I think their wives will care about this, so it will also be important t o men.”5. Why is shopping conveniently online for clothes a disadv antage?A. Students may easily get addicted to it.B. It causes shoppers to waste too much money.C. It attracts more online clothing shoppers.D. Clothes bought online may not fit.6. Wong and Zhang got the idea to design a virtual fitting room from ____.A. their shopping experiencesB. a program at their universityC. some shop-owners’ complaintsD. the Xbox 360 video game player7. Which of the following shows the process of using the virtual fitting room?A. scanning -- trying on clothes -- getting imagesB. trying on clothes -- getting models -- scanningC. trying on clothes -- getting images -- scanningD. scanning -- getting models --trying on clothes8. What did Wong think of her virtual fitting room?A. It is perfectly developed.B. It will have its market share(占有率).C. It is limited to women shoppers.D. It is like a kind of video game player.CMy parents moved to Mississippi when my brother and I were small children, and we were separated from our Oklahoma grandparents by some 600 miles. This geographic distance allowed us to only visit our grandparents once a year, either at Christmas or during summer vacation.Most of my classmates lived near their grandparents, and I would routinely hear stories of extended families（大家庭）regularly spending time with one another, fishing at “grandpa’s” house or going over to “grandma’s” for her famous fried chicken. We were disappointed that we did not get to spend more time with our grandparents, but our love for them remained deep and strong.We always expected a road trip to Oklahoma. We would count the days, and when Day I came, the entire family would pile into the car at four o’clock in the morning. Crossing the Mississippi River into Louisiana, the landscapes （风景）changed. Crossing the Red River in Oklahoma, we were in a foreign world.Every trip to see my grandparents can’t be without bringing delight. We jumped out of the car in their driveway to be met with bear hugs. My grandparents wanted to know everything about their grandchildren, and we would sit for hours and tell story after story. Grandma had a meal planned, and you could bet she fixed her grandsons’ favorite foods. Of course the best part of the visit was that we were able to do whatever we wanted without punishment from our grandparents. Grandma and Grandpa always had presents for us, neat scenic trips planned and lovely surprises, such as the time we got to go to a local restaurant and eat the world’s largest hamburger.9. T he family don’t visit the grandparents often because _________.A. they live far away from each otherB. they seldom have a vacationC. they are all busy with their workD. they have a bad attitude to them10. Whenever the author and his brother met their grandparents, they ________.A. shared cooking skills with each otherB. found they were in a foreign worldC. were all full of great excitementD. seemed not to be familiar with each other11. What can we infer f rom the author’s story？A. Distance leads to the most beautiful scene.B. Physical separation (实际的分离) hurts the heart deeply.C. Distance can’t break the bond (纽带) of love.D. Family life is filled with love and understanding.DVacation is a time for refreshment. In work, we are often called to think. Sometimes, it’s good to give our brains a rest. Without a break, we may not be able to perform up to our potential. This can be a problem, not only for the employee, but for the employer as well. “The main benefit of vacation is for the worker to come back energized(有活力的),” says Weaver. “If they haven’t had a break, then they’re not coming back with new energy. They haven’t had a chance to step back and get perspective（远景）, and come back with renewed enthusiasm(热情).”Long working hours without a break, insecurity（不安）about one’s job, and other work-related worries can lead to burnout and stress. Humans can usually adapt to pressure, but not for a limitless amount of time.“It is a problem of relating good workers and having them loyal to the firm while they’re there,” says David Maume, PhD, professor of sociology at the University of Cincinnati. He says burnout can also affect employees’ productivity, creativity, and effectiveness.In addition, high levels of stress are likely to be precursors (前兆) to depression, which can hit both the employer and employee’s pocketbook. Even people who manager to remain productive at work can have problems. If they’re always at work, then they’re not with their family and friends. If they’re working while on vacation, for the time that they’re on the job, they’re not really present.An unbalanced emphasis on work can strain family and social life. When you come up for air, you may see that you’re alone, or that your r elationships have gone on without you.12. The underlined word “there” in the fourth paragraph probably refers to ________.A. the vacationB. the universityC. the companyD. the home13. What’s the main benefit of a vacation?A. The worker can step back and get more excitedB. The worker can come back with new energy.C. The worker can adapt to pressure much better.D. The manager can be more creative.14. When a worker is always at work, he is likely to get more and more__________ .A. activeB. energeticC. skillfulD. absent-minded15. Which of the following is the best title of the text?A. Why the workers need new energy.B. How to deal with the daily pressure.C. How to spend the vacation effectively.D. Why the workers need a vacation.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

I have been fortunate to have had numerous teachers and professors who I respect for their patience and intelligence. There are artists that have inspired me by their natural talents and original creativity. I value many political leaders, who have inspired me by their contributions to society, and their ability to change our futures. But of all the people I have known in my life, the person I admire most is my father.As the youngest girl in my family, I always considered myself to be “Daddy’s Ⅱlittle girl〞. While I grew up, it always made me sad to see so many of my friends and neighbors without a father or father-like figure around. This helped me appreciate how my father always takes an interest in his children’s lives. In every aspect of my life my father continuously pushes me to excel, so I could accomplish my work outstandingly among my people. Whenever I feel like giving up, or have a question or a concern, I know I can always call on him for advice. From him I have also learned that sometimes you have to put others’ needs ahead of your own, but you should make sure you are not taken advantage of by others. His strength seems to be unbreakable during hard times, and he is extremely determined to accomplish anything he sets his mind on, no matter how tiny it is. I highly respect him for how he stands up for what he believes in, and will never back down. I have always admired his open mind, compassion(同情) for people, and sense of understanding. He is a very reserved man, but to everyb ody’s surprise, he has a great sense of humor, and always knows how to put a smile on the faces of his wife, his children and his friends.Living in his affection and instruction, I am very proud of my father. He also professes(声称) how proud he is of his children, and is still there to support us in whatever we are involved in.26. What is the best title for the passage?A. How my father loved meB.

A．They wanted to grow marijuana．B．They were not satisfied with American society．C．They wanted to go to the Vietnam War．D．They did not want all people to be equal．32．Where did the members of the Hog Farm commune live?A．In dome-shaped house. B．On a farm in Tennessee．C．In old school houses. D．In an archeology in Arizona．33．Who gave the people of Drop City the idea to build dome-shaped house? A．Buckminster Fuller B．Paolo SoleriC．B．G．Skinner D．Steve Gaskin34．What was the Twin Oaks commune based on?A．The philosophy of “do your own thing〞．B．Virginia in the late 1960s．C．The belief that people must live closely together．D．The ideas of psychologist．35．What is an “archeology〞?A．A person who studies archaeology．B．A city in Arizona．C．A large building where people live closely together．D．A technique to control people．CEnglish is an important global language, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy to learn. Many experts have tried to make English easier for students to learn – but they weren’t always successful.In 1930, Professor CK Ogden of Cambridge University invented Basic English. It had only 850 words (and just eighteen verbs) and Ogden said most people could learn it in just thirty hours. The problem was that people who learned Basic English could write and say simple messages, but they couldn’t understand the answers in ‘real’ English! It was also impossible to explain a word if it wasn’t in the Basic English wo rd list. For example, if you wanted a watermelon, you asked for ‘a large green fruit with the form of an egg, which has a sweet red inside and a good taste’! RE Zachrisson, a university professor in Sweden, decided that the biggest problem for learners of English was spelling, so he invented a language called Anglic. Anglic was similar to English, but with much simpler spelling. ‘Father’ became ‘faadher, ‘new’ became ‘nue’ and ‘years’ became ‘yeerz’. Unfortunately for some students of English, Anglic never became popular.Even easier is the language which ships’ captains use: it’s called ‘Seaspeak’. Seaspeak uses a few simple phrases for every possible situation. In Seaspeak, for example you don’t say, ‘I’m sorry what did you say?’ or ‘I didn’t understand, can you repeat that?’ ... it’s just, ‘Say again.’ No more grammar!In the age of international communication through the Internet who knows? ...a new form of English might appear. A large number of the world’s e-mails are inEnglish and include examples o f ‘NetLingo’ like OIC (Oh, I see) and TTYL (Talk to you later). In another fifty years, English as we know it might not exist ... we will probably all speak fluent Internetish!36. The best title for the passage would be ______.A. SeaspeakB. Basic EnglishC.

Weboholism, a twentieth century disease, affects people from different ages. They surf the net, use e-mail and speak in chat rooms. They spend many hours on the computer, and it becomes a compulsive habit. They cannot stop, and it affects their lives.Ten years ago, no one thought that using computers could become compulsive behavior that could affect the social and physical life of computer users. This obsessive behavior has affected teenagers and college students. They are likely to log on computers and spend long hours at different websites.They become hooked on computers and gradually their social and school life is affected by this situation. They spend all free time surfing and don’t concentrate on homework, so this addiction influences their grades and success at schools. Because they can find everything on the websites, they hang out there. Moreover, this addiction to websites influences their social life.They spend more time in front of computers than with their friends. The relation with their friends changes. The virtual life becomes more important than their real life. They have a new language that they speak in the chat rooms and it causes cultural changes in society.Because of the change in their behavior, they begin to isolate themselves from the society and live with their virtual friends. They share their emotions and feelings with friends who they have never met in their life. Although they feel confident on the computer, they are not confident with real live friends they have known all their life. It is a problem for the future.
