Now it is on the lips of respected scientists; MPs（议员） are beginning to talk of"a war on sugar", and even England's chief medical officer has said sugar may have to be, like the old enemy tobacco, taxed in order to protect the nation's health.There came a time in the evolution of public attitudes to smoking, when the doctors had been shouting for long enough that the public was broadly aware of the risks and the only question left, for Government was：what should we do about it?Some believe we are now at the same point in our attitudes to sugar. Others—largely but not only representatives of the food and drink industry—say the entire debate has been skewed, （歪曲） by those who spread stories deliberately to make people nervous.More or less everyone agrees that eating too much sugar is bad for you. There is also no doubt obesity is a growing problem which is putting a significant, avoidable burden on the NHS by increasing the rates of diabetes, heart disease and other long﹣term conditions.But to what extent is sugar—rather than saturated fats, or salt, carbohydrates or proteins, or any of the other devils of modem diets—the cause of obesity and how much should we worry about it?Yesterday, hopes of achieving anything resembling clarity（清楚） from the World Health Organization （WHO） were confused once again, which, widely expected to reduce the recommended sugar intake by a half in new draft guidance, instead said it would continue to recommend that sugar make up no more than 10 per cent of the energy we consume, while adding that cutting this to five per cent would have"additional benefits". The decision will now go out to public consultation.Simon Capewell, professor of the University of Liverpool, said that he suspected"dirty work"on the part of food and drinks companies might lie behind the WHO's less than resounding message."The food industry say Government has no business interfering（介入） in families, we must protect personal choice, "Professor Capewell said. "We say there is no personal choice. At the moment, a mother can walk into a supermarket with a choice of four tomato soups—with three, or four, or five teaspoons of sugar in them. She has a choice of thousands of ready meals—with five, or six, or even nine teaspoons of sugar in. "(1) By referring to smoking the author indicates that.A. sugar has just turned out to be as harmful as smokingB. it is not easy for authorities to restrict or ban somethingC. it is easy for people to see bad effects of somethingD. people must see the disadvantages of sugar immediately(2) WHO has changed its idea mainly because.A. it thinks the danger of sugar to health is overemphasizedB. it finds it safe to take in as much sugar as people do nowC. it believes certain amount of intake of sugar does us goodD. it has been put under pressure by food and drinks companies(3) When reporting the argument about sugar，the author seems to.A. remain objectiveB. stand by those against itC. believe it harmlessD. hold the view of"wait-and-see"(4) Which of the following can be the proper title for the passage?A. Is sugar the new evil?B. How much sugar do you take daily?C. Is sugar to be taxed?D. How much do you know about sugar?19、【来源】 2014年江苏南通高三二模第53~55题6分Scientists from the University of East Anglia have identified four new man—made gases that are contributing to the damage to the ozone（臭氧） layer. Two of the gases are accumulating at a rate that is causing concern among researchers.Worries over the growing ozone hole have seen the production of chlorofluorocarbon （CFC） gases restricted since the mid 1980s. But the precise origin of these new, similar substances remains a mystery.Lying in the atmosphere, the ozone layer plays a critical role in blocking harmful UV rays, which cause cancers in humans and reproductive problems in animals.Scientists from the British Antarctic Survey were the first to discover a huge"hole"in the ozone over Antarctica in 1985. The evidence quickly pointed to CFC gases, which were invented in the 1920s, and were widely used in refrigeration. Extraordinarily, global action was rapidly agreed to deal with CFCs and the Montreal Protocol to limit these substances came into being in 1987. A total global ban on production came into force in 2010.Now, the newly discovered four new gases can destroy ozone and are getting into the atmosphere from as yet unidentified sources. Three of the gases are CFCs and one is a hydrochlorofluorocarbon （HCFC）, which can also damage ozone.The research has shown that four gases were not around in the atmosphere at all until the 1960s, which suggests they are man—made. The scientists discovered the gases by analyzing polar snow pack. Air from this snow is a natural archive of what was in the atmosphere up to 100years ago. The researchers also looked at modern air samples, collected at remote Cape Grim in Tasmania.They estimate that about 74, 000tonnes of these gases have been released into the atmosphere. Two of the gases are accumulating at significant rates. However, they don't know where the new gases are being released from and this should be investigated. Possible sources include chemicals for insecticide（杀虫剂） production and solvents（溶液） for cleaning electronic ponents. The three CFCs are being destroyed very slowly in the atmosphere—so even if emissions（散发） were to stop immediately, they will still be around for many decades to come.Of the four species identified, CFC—113a seems the most worrying as there is a very small but growing emission source somewhere, maybe from agricultural insecticides. We should find it and take it out of production.(1) What do we know about the newly discovered gases?A. Some are surely produced by the development of agriculture.B. The CFCs will have a long impact once they are released.C. They gather together in the atmosphere at a medium speed.D. Their amounts are not large enough to cause damage to us.(2) The underlined word"archive"in Paragraph 6is closest to the meaningof""A. stateB. resourceC. phenomenonD. storeroom(3) What will the scientists probably attempt to do about the gases next?A. Find out what can replace things like insecticides and put them into use.B. Find out how they destroy ozone and get rid of those in the atmosphere.C. Find out where they are exactly from and stop them from being released.D. Find out if HCFC is more harmful than CFCs and take proper measures.20、【来源】 2014年江苏南通高三二模第65~60题10分Charles Dickens was one of the most beloved storytellers in the English language. His novels made him famous in his own time, and continue as classics in ours.Dickens began his literary career with almost no formal education. He was born in Landport, on Feb. 7, 1812, the second of eight children. When he was 12, his father was sent to debtor's prison. Dickens was forced to quit school and work in a London blacking factory. He would rework that terrible experience into his fiction for the rest of his life."He was a social reformer, "says actor Simon Callow, author of a new biography called Charles Dickens and the Great Theatre of the World. "He knew what poverty was. He knew what it was to be rejected, to be cast aside, to live in squalor （悲惨）. "And so Dickens wrote with great sympathy for the suffering of innocent and vulnerable （易受攻击的） children—characters like David Copperfield, Little Dorrit and the orphan, Oliver Twist: With his slice of bread in his hand, and his little brown parish cap on his head, Oliver was now led away from the wretched home, where one kind word or look never lighted the gloom of his infant （幼儿） days.Yet he burst into an agony of childish grief as the cottage gate closed after him. Wretched as were the little companions in, misery he was now leaving behind him, they were the only friends he had ever had.His first book Sketches by Boz came out in 1836. With the appearance of Oliver Twist in London periodicals in 1837, the 25-year-old Dickens became the most popular writer in England. But his first love was theater, and he considered being an actor."When he was actually writing, he became his characters, "says Peter Ackroyd, author of Dickens: Public Life and Private Passion. "He would get up from his desk, go over to the mirror and mouth the words—do the expressions, grimaces （鬼脸）, whatever, and then laugh, chuckle to himself, then go back to his desk and write it down. "Dickens created 989 named characters, which increased his popularity. Every one of his major works has been adapted for either stage or screen. A Christmas Carol inspired more than a dozen films, from Alistair Sims'Scrooge in 1951 to Jim Carrey's voicing of the same character in Disney's 2009, 3D animated film.The original 1843 manuscript（手稿） of A Christmas Carol is on display at the Morgan Library. Dickens wrote everything by hand, in tiny script, with a quill pen. Remarkably, the manuscript is both the first and the final draft, says Kiely, the curator. You can see where Dickens has changed the name of the first chapter from "Old Marley's Ghost "to" Marley's Ghost". Further down the page, he has canceled an entire section."He realizes he's not writing a novel, and he only has a very short time in which to write this, "Kiely explains. "He's got to keep it tight, in order for it to be published in time for Christmas. "Dickens wrote all the time. He traveled with a portable inkwell and a supply of quill pens. He was working on his last novel, Our Mutual Friend, en route from France to London when the train he was on crashed.Dickens died five years later in 1870, after a stroke at age 58. As a comic talent and a social reformer, Dickens' achievement was extraordinary, says novelist T.C. Boyle, who earned a doctorate in Victorian literature."He achieved what any great artist achieves—a body of work that has entertained and delighted and instructed people down through the ages. That's what we all hope for, "says Boyle. But Dickens' greatest fiction was his own character, says Callow, the biographer: "People think of him as a cheerful man…but he was increasingly suffering from depression and a sense of hopelessness. And that's worth knowing. I think it's always good to know that great creative individuals have their struggle, their drama. "(1) What can probably be reflected in Dickens' works?A. His love for his family.B. His childhood sufferings.C. His desire for formal education.D. His reason to choose literary career.(2) The author quotes Dickens' description of Oliver Twist mainly to show.A. that Dickens was full of pity for poor childrenB. that Dickens knew well about poor childrenC. what real poverty was like in his daysD. what kind of life Oliver Twist lived(3) It can be inferred from the passage that.A. Sketches by Boz is nothing but a complete failureB. Oliver Twist made Dickens first known to the publicC. A Christmas Carol proved Dickens an efficient writerD. Our Mutual Friend came into being on a train(4) We can learn from the passage that.A. all the characters created by Dickens are popularB. people prefer films based on Dickens' novels to his worksC. Dickens was more interested in performing than in writingD. the films and plays based on Dickens' novels raise his popularity(5) What did Dickens intend to do by telling his stories?A. To amuse his readers and change society.B. To analyze the nature of society he was in.C. To make an attack on the upper class of the time.D. To get rid of his depression and sense of hopelessness.三、任务型阅读（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）21、【来源】 2014年江苏南通高三二模第61~70题10分Emotional Intelligence （EQ or EI） is a set of abilities or petencies that enable us to understand and manage ourselves and our emotions effectively. EQ also helps us understand and effectively relate toothers. Stress tolerance, leadership, munication, social responsibility, problem solving and creativity all require high EQ.Here are some of the major emotional intelligence competences that make up a fully integrated personality as well as a sample of a state of the art assessment that measures EQ.Emotional Expression—The ability to express your feelings and instincts（本能）. Emotional expression is a necessary part of your day.EmotionalA wareness of Others—The ability to hear, sense or intuit what other people may be feeling from their words, body language（not verbal） or other direct or indirect clues.Flexibility—The ability to bounce back, be flexible, and retain curiosity and hope in the face of adversity, change or challenge.Optimism—B eing positive and optimistic.EQ is recognized to be one of the most important predictors of personal, business and professional success. In a world of unprecedented change and challenge it is our ability to increase our EQ that will help us build the leadership, transparent munication and collaboration to lead better lives, do better business and contribute to a better world.IQ may get you the client, but your EQ skills will help you keep the client and build a growing practice. Why? B ecause, while human beings like to make their decisions m an intelligent way to purchase a product or a service, the bottom line remains that we buy services and products from those we trust and like. It is our ability to trust and like another person that makes us feel comfortable with the relationship and inspires the desire to have or to purchase something from them.It is the human ability to put instincts, emotions and thoughts into the correct position in relation to each other that gives us the competence to increase our emotional intelligence. A nd it is the human ability to use the changes and challenges we face to develop self awareness and emotional management that helps us communicate better.With appropriate education and training, Emotional Intelligence can be developed throughout our lives. Like most human competences, Emotional Intelligence is best increased in the learning and the doing, and that is why EQ focused coaching is so powerful.四、书面表达（满分25分）22、【来源】 2014年江苏南通高三二模第71题25分2017~2018学年4月江苏泰州海陵区泰州中学高二下学期月考第91题20分请你根据对下面这幅漫画的理解，以"Come back to reality"为题，用英语写一篇作文．你的作文应包括以下内容：1．简要描述漫画的内容；2．概述你对这幅图的理解；3．举例说明你会怎样做．注意：1．可参照漫画适当发挥；2．作文词数150左右；3．作文中不得提及有关考生个人身份的任何信息，如校名、人名等．Cone back to reality1 、【答案】 D;2 、【答案】 C;3 、【答案】 D;4 、【答案】 B;5 、【答案】 D;6 、【答案】 A;7 、【答案】 A;8 、【答案】 C;9 、【答案】 B;10 、【答案】 C;11 、【答案】 A;12 、【答案】 B;13 、【答案】 B;14 、【答案】 C;15 、【答案】 D;16 、【答案】 C;D;A;B;A;D;C;A;B;C;B;C;D;A;B;D;A;C;B;D;17 、【答案】 (1) D;(2) A;(3) D;18 、【答案】 (1) B;(2) C;(3) B;(4) A;19 、【答案】 (1) B;(2) D;(3) C;20 、【答案】 (1) B;(2) A;(3) C;(4) C;(5) A;21 、【答案】 1.

Personally, that is what I agree with. Because success never comes easily and the stricter a teacher is, the more likely a student will be to make progress.I still remember the time when I couldn’t swim like other boys. What’s worse, I even dared not jump into the water. It was my swimming teacher, Mr. Liu, who insisted on training me every day regardless of my tears and crying. Gradually, my fear of water was gone and my confidence arose. But for him, I would never enjoy the fun that swimming brings to me.Therefore, I am convinced that a teacher’s strictness best helps his students to achieve success. (110 words)。

They are eating pizza, chicken wings and chips and cheering every move. They’re watching the Super Bowl.Why are Americans so crazy about American football? Well, it is more exciting than other sports. One team can lose possession of the ball in a minute, which may allow their opponents to make a touchdown (触地得分). Then that team may win the game unexpectedly.The Super Bowl also entertains its audience with a great halftime show. The football field is turned into a stage. Then an impressive performance of dancing and singing with special effects occurs.Since the Super Bowl is the most-watched TV program in America, commercial airtime is also very expensive. Big money is also spent on commercials. They draw the viewers’attention and advertise their image or products during the commercial break.After football season, the “March Madness”begins. The NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) competitions begin with 68 men’s college basketball teams. They play until the field is reduced to the “Final Four”. The winning team becomes the national champion. The NBA (National Basketball Association) All-Star game is also held in February. The best players from all the teams play in this game.Baseball is no doubt American’s national sport. From grandpas to young kids, whole families go to ball games together. They wear their favorite team’s caps or even carry their mascot (吉祥物). Our family went to watch Wang Chien-Ming play in D.C. once. We ate hot dogs, waved flags and sang during the 7th inning (棒球的一局) stretch.If you are not a sports fan yet, come and pick a sport or a team. Go to a ball game with your family, and cheer your team on. Sports are definitely a part of American culture one should not miss.66. According to the passage, the Super Bowl is _____.A. a well-received American football gameB. an expensive American sportC. an impressive TV performanceD. a most-watched TV series67. Which of the following may be one of the reasons for the popularity of the Super Bowl?A. Its results are too exciting to meet viewers’ expectations.B.

The virtual wall is designed to _____.A. limit the robot to a certain areaB. prevent the robot from bumping into wallsC. stop the robot from reaching 4 metersD. create a bunch of light outside thedoorway（C）We have entered a new age of embedded (嵌入式的), intuitive (直觉的) computing in which our homes, cars, stores, farms, and factories have the ability to think, sense, understand, and respond to our needs. It’s not science fiction, but the dawn of a new age.Most people might not realize it yet, but we are already feeling the impact of what’s known as the third wave of computing. In small but significant ways it is helping us live healthier and more secure lives. If you drive a 2014 Mercedes Benz, for example, an “intelligent” system tries to keep you from hitting a pedestrian. A farmer in Nigeria relies on weather sensors that communicate with his mobile device. Forgot your medicine? A new pill bottle from AdhereTech reminds you through text or automatic phone messages that it’s time to take a pill.Technology is being integrated (融入) into our natural behaviors, with real-time data connecting our physical and digital worlds. With this dramatic shift in our relationship to technology, companies can adapt their products and services.To understand how revolutionary the third wave is, we ought to consider how far we have come. The first wave began when companies started to manage their operations throughmainframe computer systems over 50 years ago. Then computing got “personal” in the 1980s and the 1990s with the introduction of the PC (personal computer). For the most part, computing remained immobile and lacked contextual awareness.In computing’s second wave, mobile computing and the smartphone took center stage. Billions of people, some of whom might not have had access to clean water, electricity, or even housing, were connected. Developers created applications and provided consumers with access to just about everything through their phone at the cost of a monthly data plan.As the third wave keeps developing, designers must meet the demands of consumers who want to experiment with new technology.Historically, designers have focused their attention on a product’s form and function. While that still matters, of course, the definition of a meaningful user experience has expanded significantly and will continue to do so. Instead of creating a single product, designers will need to imagine a series of connected products and services that have awareness of each other and their surroundings.74. Why are three examples given in Paragraph 2?A. To tell us that human beings are smarter and smarter.B. To illustrate the importance and necessity of technology.C. To prove that we are living healthier and more secure lives.D. To show the impact of the third wave of computing on our life.75. In the first wave of computing _____.A. companies’ operations were reliable on computer systemsB. computing had awareness of people’s needs in the contextC. people could have access to computing almost everywhereD. it was possible for people to experience computing at home76. Which of the following is a situation in the third wave of computing?A. There’s no need to create a single product.B. The definition of the user experience is more significant.C. Products and services are not independent of each other.D. The products’ form and functions are no longer important.77. What can we conclude from the passage about the new age we are facing?A. There’s a shift of attention from people’s physical worlds to their digital worlds.B. There’s closer relationship between technology and people’s natural behaviours.C. People live more happily with the convenience brought by advanced technology.D. People become lazier with the products that can think and respond to their needs.Section CDirections: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.How many hours do you spend sitting in a chair every day? Eight hours in the office plus three hours in front of the TV after work is the usual situation for many people.You probably don’t need an expert to tell you that sitting too much is not good for your health —from an increased risk of heart disease and obesity (肥胖) in the long term, to reduced cholesterol (胆固醇) maintenance in the short term, not to mention the pressure on your neck and spine (脊柱).To make matters worse, a growing body of research suggests that the negative effects of sitting too much cannot be countered with a good diet and regular exercise, according to an article in The New York Times. The article reported that a study of nearly 9, 000 Australians found that for each additional hour of television a person watched per day, the risk of dying rose by 11 percent. In other words, sitting is killing us.Stand up for health. Health experts suggest we break up those many hours spent sitting with more hours spent standing.The BBC and the University of Chester in the UK conducted a simple experiment with a small group of 10 volunteers who usually spent most of the day sitting. They were asked to stand for at least three hours a day. The researchers took measurements on days when the volunteers stood, and when they sat around. When they looked at the data, there were some striking differences. Blood sugar became level after a meal much quicker on the days when the volunteers in the study stood compared with the days they spent in a chair. Standing also burned more calories (热量单位：卡路里)—about 50 calories an hour. Over the course of a year that would add up to about 30, 000 extra calories, or around 3.63 kilograms of fat.John Buckley, a member of the research team, said that although doing exercise offers many proven benefits, our bodies also need the constant, almost imperceptible (感觉不到的) increase in muscle activity that standing provides. Simple movement helps us to keep our all-important blood sugar under control.The researchers believe that even small adjustments, like standing while talking on the phone, going over to talk to a colleague rather than sending an e-mail, or simply taking the stairs instead of the elevator, will help.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.)78. According to the context, the underlined expression “be countered with” in Paragraph 3can best be replaced by “________”.79. The two findings of the simple experiment conducted by the BBC and the University ofChester in the UK are that standing _________.80. Why is standing better than doing exercise according to John Buckley?81. What does the passage mainly want to tell us?第II卷(共47分)I.

Now it is on the lips of respected scientists; MPs(议员) are beginning to talk of "a war on sugar", and even England's chief medical officer has said sugar may have to be, like the old enemy tobacco, taxed in order toprotect the nation's health.There came a time in the evolution of public attitudes to smoking, when the doctors had been shouting for long enough that the public was broadly aware of the risks and the only question left, for Government was: what should we do about itSome believe we are now at the same point in our attitudes to sugar. Others - largely but not only representatives of the food and drink industry - say the entire debate has been skewed,(歪曲) by those who spread stories deliberately to make people nervous.More or less everyone agrees that eating too much sugar is bad for you. There is also no doubt obesity is a growing problem which is putting a significant, avoidable burden on the NHS by increasing the rates of diabetes, heart disease and other long-term conditions.But to what extent is sugar - rather than saturated fats, or salt, carbohydrates or proteins, or any of the other devils of modem diets - the cause of obesity and how much should we worry about itYesterday, hopes of achieving anything resembling clarity（清楚）from the World Health Organization (WHO) were confused once again, which, widely expected to reduce the recommended sugar intake by a half in new draft guidance, instead said it would continue to recommend that sugar make up no more than 10 per cent of the energy we consume, while adding that cutting this to five per cent would have "additional benefits". The decision will now go out to public consultation.Simon Capewell, professor of the University of Liverpool, said that he suspected "dirty work" on the part of food and drinks companies might lie behind the WHO's less than resounding message."The food industry say Government has no business interfering（介入）in families, we must protect personal choice," Professor Capewell said. "We say there is no personal choice. At the moment, a mother can walk into a supermarket with a choice of four tomato soups - with three, or four, or five teaspoons of sugar in them. She has a choice of thousands of ready meals – with five, or six, or even nine teaspoons of sugar in."59. By referring to smoking the author indicates that______________.A. sugar has just turned out to be as harmful as smokingB. it is not easy for authorities to restrict or ban somethingC. it is easy for people to see bad effects of somethingD. people must see the disadvantages of sugar immediately60. WHO has changed its idea mainly because_________________.A. it thinks the danger of sugar to health is overemphasizedB. it finds it safe to take in as much sugar as people do nowC. it believes certain amount of intake of sugar does us goodD. it has been put under pressure by food and drinks companies61. When reporting the argument about sugar, the author seems to ___________.A. remain objectiveB. stand by those against itC. believe it harmlessD. hold the view of "wait-and-see"62. Which of the following can be the proper title for the passageA. Is sugar the new evilB. How much sugar do you take dailyC. Is sugar to be taxedD. How much do you know about sugarCScientists from the University of East Anglia have identified four new man-made gases that are contributing to the damage to the ozone(臭氧) layer. Two of the gases are accumulating at a rate that is causing concern among researchers.Worries over the growing ozone hole have seen the production of chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) gases restricted since the mid 1980s. But the precise origin of these new, similar substances remains a mystery.Lying in the atmosphere, the ozone layer plays a critical role in blocking harmful UV rays, which cause cancers in humans and reproductive problems in animals.Scientists from the British Antarctic Survey were the first to discover a huge "hole" in the ozone over Antarctica in 1985. The evidence quickly pointed to CFC gases, which were invented in the 1920s, and were widely used in refrigeration. Extraordinarily, global action was rapidly agreed to deal with CFCs and the Montreal Protocol to limit these substances came into being in 1987. A total global ban on production came into force in 2010.Now, the newly discovered four new gases can destroy ozone and are getting into the atmosphere from as yet unidentified sources. Three of the gases are CFCs and one is a hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC), which can also damage ozone.The research has shown that four gases were not around in the atmosphere at all until the 1960s, which suggests they are man-made. The scientists discovered the gases by analyzing polar snow pack. Air from this snow is a natural archive of what was in the atmosphere up to 100 years ago. The researchers also looked at modern air samples, collected at remote Cape Grim in Tasmania.They estimate that about 74,000 tonnes of these gases have been released into the atmosphere. Two of the gases are accumulating at significant rates. However, they don't know where the new gases are being released from and this should be investigated. Possible sources include chemicals for insecticide（杀虫剂）production and solvents（溶液）for cleaning electronic ponents. The three CFCs are being destroyed very slowly in the atmosphere - so even if emissions（散发）were to stop immediately, they will still be around for many decades to come.Of the four species identified, CFC-113a seems the most worrying as there is a very small but growing emission source somewhere, maybe from agricultural insecticides. We should find it and take it out of production.63. What do we know about the newly discovered gasesA. Some are surely produced by the development of agriculture.B. The CFCs will have a long impact once they are released.C. They gather together in the atmosphere at a medium speed.D. Their amounts are not large enough to cause damage to us.64. The underlined word "archive" in Paragraph 6 is closest to the meaning of"____ "A. stateB. resourceC. phenomenonD. storeroom65. What will the scientists probably attempt to do about the gases nextA. Find out what can replace things like insecticides and put them into use.B. Find out how they destroy ozone and get rid of those in the atmosphere.C. Find out where they are exactly from and stop them from being released.D. Find out if HCFC is more harmful than CFCs and take proper measures.DCharles Dickens was one of the most beloved storytellers in the English language. His novels made him famous in his own time, and continue as classics in ours.Dickens began his literary career with almost no formal education. He was born in Landport, on Feb. 7, 1812, the second of eight children. When he was 12, his father was sent to debtor's prison. Dickens was forced to quit school and work in a London blacking factory. He would rework that terrible experience into his fiction for the rest of his life."He was a social reformer," says actor Simon Callow, author of a new biography called Charles Dickens and the Great Theatre of the World. "He knew what poverty was. He knew what it was to be rejected, to be cast aside, to live in squalor (悲惨)."And so Dickens wrote with great sympathy for the suffering of innocent and vulnerable (易受攻击的) children - characters like David Copperfield, Little Dorrit and the orphan, Oliver Twist: With his slice of bread in his hand, and his little brown parish cap on his head, Oliver was now led away from the wretched home, where one kind word or look never lighted the gloom of his infant (幼儿) days.Yet he burst into an agony of childish grief as the cottage gate closed after him. Wretched as were the little panions in，misery he was now leaving behind him, they were the only friends he had ever had.His first book Sketches by Boz came out in 1836. With the appearance of Oliver Twist in London periodicals in 1837, the 25-year-old Dickens became the most popular writer in England. But his first love was theater, and he considered being an actor."When he was actually writing, he became his characters," says Peter Ackroyd, author of Dickens: Public Life and Private Passion. "He would get up from his desk, go over to the mirror and mouth the words - do the expressions, grimaces (嵬脸), whatever, and then laugh, chuckle to himself, then go back to his desk and write it down."Dickens created 989 named characters, which increased his popularity. Every one of his major works has been adapted for either stage or screen. A Christmas Carol inspired more than a dozen films, from Alistair Sims' Scrooge in 1951 to Jim Carrey's voicing of the same character in Disney's 2009, 3-D animated film.The original 1843 manuscript（手稿）of A Christmas Carolis on display at the Morgan Library. Dickens wrote everything by hand, in tiny script, with a quill pen. Remarkably, the manuscript is both the first and the final draft, says Kiely, the curator. You can see where Dickens has changed the name of the first chapter from "Old Marley's Ghost" to "Marley's Ghost". Further down the page, he has canceled an entire section."He realizes he's not writing a novel, and he only has a very short time in which to write this," Kiely explains. "He's got to keep it tight, in order for it to be published in time for Christmas."Dickens wrote all the time. He traveled with a portable inkwell and a supply of quill pens. He was working on his last novel, Our Mutual Friend, en route from France to London when the train he was on crashed.Dickens died five years later in 1870, after a stroke at age 58. As a ic talent and a social reformer, Dickens' achievement was extraordinary, says novelist . Boyle, who eamed a doctorate in Victorian literature."He achieved what any great artist achieves - a body of work that has entertained and delighted and instructed people down through the ages. That's what we all hope for," says Boyle. But Dickens' greatest fiction was his own character, says Callow, the biographer: "People think of him as a cheerful man ... but he was increasingly suffering from depression and a sense of hopelessness. And that's worth knowing. I think it's always good to know that great creative individuals have their struggle, their drama."66. What can probably be reflected in Dickens' worksA. His love for his family.B. His childhood sufferings.C. His desire for formal education.D. His reason to choose literary career.67. The author quotes Dickens' description of Oliver Twist mainly to show ______.A. that Dickens was full of pity for poor childrenB. that Dickens knew well about poor childrenC. what real poverty was like in his daysD. what kind of life Oliver Twist lived68. It can be inferred from the passage that _________A. Sketches by Boz is nothing but a plete failureB. Oliver Twist made Dickens first known to the publicC. A Christrwas Caro l proved Dickens an efficient writerD. Our Mutual Friend came into being on a train69. We can learn from the passage that _______A. all the characters created by Dickens are popularB. people prefer films based on Dickens' novels to his worksC. Dickens were more interested in performing than in writingD. the films and plays based on Dickens' novels raise his popularity70. What did Dickens intend to do by telling his storiesA. To amuse his readers and change society.B. To analyze the nature of society he was m.C. To make an attack on the upper class of the time.D. To get rid of his depression and sense of hopelessness.【考点】学校生活类-记叙文【文章大意】本文是夹叙夹议的文章，讲述的是一个小男孩上数学课总是讲话，别的老师认为他是一个有问题的老师，但是Anna不这样认为，她组织了竞赛，证明了自己的想法，挖掘了小男孩在数学上的潜能。

must"是从句部分；将先行词放到从句中："a good impression is a must at work"其中"at work"作地点状语，所以要用关系副词where．关系副词when在定语从句中作时间状语；as，which

want．Economics deals with this problem through the concept of opportunity cost，which simply refers to whether someone's time or money could be better spent on something else．Every hour of our time has a value．For every hour we work at one job we could quite easily be doing another，or be sleeping or watching a film．Each of these options has a different opportunity cost﹣namely，what they cost us in missed opportunities．Say you intend to watch a football match but the tickets are expensive and it will take you a couple of hours to get to and from the stadium．Why not，you might reason，watch the game from home and use the leftover money and time to have dinner with friends？This﹣the alternative use of your cash and time﹣is the opportunity cost．For economists，every decision is made by knowledge of what one must forgo﹣in terms of money and enjoyment﹣in order to take it up．By knowing precisely what you are receiving and what you are missing out on，you ought to be able to make better﹣informed，more reasonable decisions．Consider that most famous economic rule of all：there's no such thing as a free lunch．Even if someone offers to take you out to lunch for free，the time you will spend in the restaurant still costs you something in terms of forgone opportunities．Some people find the idea of opportunity cost extremely discouraging：imagine spending your entire life calculating whether your time would be better spent elsewhere doing something more profitable or enjoyable．Yet，in a sense it's human nature to do precisely that﹣we assess the advantages and disadvantages of decisions all the time．In the business world，a popular phrase is"value for money．"People want their cash to go as far as possible．However，another is fast obtaining an advantage："value for time．"The biggest restriction on our resources is the number of hours we can devote to something，so we look to maximize the return we get on our investment of time．By reading this passage you are giving over a bit of your time which could be spent doing other activities，such as sleeping and eating．In return，however，this passage will help you to think like an economist，closely considering the opportunity cost of each of your decisions．58．According to the passage，the concept of"opportunity cost"is applied to D．A．making more moneyB．taking more opportunitiesC．reducing missed opportunitiesD．weighing the choice of opportunities59．The"leftover…time"in Paragraph 3probably refers to the time C．A．spared for watching the match at homeB．taken to have dinner with friendsC．spent on the way to and from the matchD．saved from not going to watch the match60．What are forgone opportunities B？A．Opportunities you forget in decision﹣making．B．Opportunities you give up for better ones．C．Opportunities you miss accidentally．D．Opportunities you make up for．【考点】O7：政治经济类阅读．【分析】本文是一篇议论文．文章主要介绍了如何更好地支配自己的时间和金钱，以及如何在作决定时考虑花费的机会成本．因为无论我们多么富有，我们也不可能在一天里找到足够的时间做我们想要做的一切．因此，我们要放弃一些事情选择做更好的事情．【解答】58．D 推理判断题．根据第一段的"Economics deals with this problem through the concept of opportunity cost，which simply refers to whether someone's time or money could be better spent on something else"．和第三段的"This﹣the alternative use of your cash and time ﹣is the opportunity cost"可知，opportunity cost（机会成本）是指人们考虑自己的时间和金钱是否可以更好地被利用在其他的事情上，也就是在衡量自己的选择是否合理．所以这个概念应用于衡量机会的选择方面，故选D．59．C 词义推测题．根据第三段的"Say…but the tickets are expensive and it will take you a couple of hours to get to and from the stadium…use the leftover money and time to have dinner with friends？"可知，人们本来是想去看球赛，但是球赛的票太贵了．所以就把本来准备看球赛的金钱和时间用在了别的地方，所以leftover …time所指的是"花在观看比赛（路上）来去的时间"．故选C．60．B 推理判断题．根据第四段的"Even if someone offers to take you out to lunch for free，the time you will spend in the restaurant still costs you something in terms of forgone opportunities．"可知，即使有人带你去享受免费的午餐，在这种情况下，你吃饭的时间还是会让你失去某些东西．所以推测出forgone opportunities是指"所放弃的可以做更有价值事情的更好的机会"．故B正确．【点评】本文是政治经济类阅读，考查学生对细节的理解把握和推理判断能力，做题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确选择．在做推理判断题时不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断．29．（8分）Most damagingly，anger weakens a person's ability to think clearly and keep control over his behaviour．The angry person loses objectivity in evaluating the emotional significance of the person or situation that arouses his anger．Not everyone experiences anger in the same way；what angers one person may amuse another．The specific expression of anger also differs from person to person based on biological and cultural forces．In contemporary culture，physical expressions of anger are generally considered too socially harmful to be tolerated．We no longer regard duels （决斗）as an appropriate expression of anger resulting from one person's awareness of insulting behaviour on the part of another．Anger can be identified in the brain，where the electrical activity changes．Under most conditions EEG （脑电图）measures of electrical activity show balanced activity between the right and left prefrontal （额叶前部）areas．Behaviourally this corresponds to the general even ﹣handed disposition （意向）that most of us possess most of the time．But when we are angry the EEG of the right and left prefrontal areas aren't balanced and，as a result of this，we're likely to react．And our behavioural response to anger is different from our response to other emotions，whether positive or negative．Most positive emotions are associated with approach behaviour：we move closer to people we like．Most negative emotions，in contrast，are associated with avoidance behaviour：we move away from people and things that we dislike or that make us anxious．But anger is an exception to this pattern．The angrier we are，the more likely we are to move towards the object of our anger．This corresponds to what psychologists refer to as of ensive anger：the angry person moves closer in order to influence and control the person or situation causing his anger．This approach﹣and﹣confront behaviour is accompanied by a leftward prefrontal asymmetry （不对称）of EEG activity．Interestingly，this asymmetry lessens if the angry person can experience empathy （同感）towards the individual who is bringing forth the angry response．In defensive anger，in contrast，the EEG asymmetry is directed to the right and theangry person feels helpless in the face of the anger﹣inspiring situation．61．The"duels"example in Paragraph 2proves that the expression of anger C．A．usually has a biological basisB．varies among peopleC．is socially and culturally shapedD．influences one's thinking and evaluation62．What changes can be found in an angry brain B？A．Balanced electrical activity can be spotted．B．Unbalanced patterns are found in prefrontal areas．C．Electrical activity corresponds to one's behaviour．D．Electrical activity agrees with one's disposition．63．Which of the following is typical of offensive anger A？A．Approaching the source of anger．B．Trying to control what is disliked．C．Moving away from what is disliked．D．Feeling helpless in the face of anger．64．What is the key message of the last paragraph D？A．How anger differs from other emotions．B．How anger relates to other emotions．C．Behavioural responses to anger．D．Behavioural patterns of anger．【考点】O5：科教类阅读．【分析】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了一些与愤怒有关的表现以及医学原理和人们生气的时候表现出的行为模式．【解答】61．C 推理判断题．根据文章第二段"In contemporary culture，physical expressions of anger are generally considered too socially harmful to be tolerated．"在当代社会里，愤怒的肢体表现被认为是对社会有伤害而不能被容忍．但是在古代却又着决斗这样的行为，说明愤怒的表现形式是由不同的社会和文化形成的．故C正确．。

2014年高考江苏省英语卷（答案及解析）——-—-易题库教研团队题目：Lessons can be learned to face the future， ________ history cannot be changed。

选项：A．thoughB．asC．sinceD．unless答案：A解析过程：句意:尽管我们不能改变历史，但是我们可以从历史中学到教训从而更好的面对未来.根据句意可知上下文之间存在着转折关系，所以使用though表示让步和转折。

故选项A正确。

考点定位:考查连词——-—————-—题目：The book has helped me greatly in my daily communication， especially at work ________ a good impression is a must.选项：A．whichB．whenC．asD．where答案：D解析过程：句意:在日常交流中这本书帮助了我很多,尤其是在我的工作之中，因为在工作中,良好的印象很重要。

通过分析句子成分可知本题考查定语从句，先行词是work。

因为后面的定语从句a good impression is a must 的句子结构很完整,所以使用关系副词在句中做状语，同时也引导起这个定语从句.AC两项都是关系代词在句中不能做状语，when的先行词通常都是指时间的名词。

故选项D正确.考点定位：考查定语从句————-—-———题目：—How much do you know about the Youth Olympic Games to be held in Nanjing？-Well， the media ________ it in a variety of forms。

选项:A．coverB．will coverC．have coveredD．covered答案：C解析过程：句意：—你对即将在南京举行的青年奥运会了解多少？—了解的不少，媒体已经以多种形式对青年奥运会举进行了报道。

江苏省南通市2014届高三第二次调研测试—英语2高考英语2014-05-2014 1641Philip Howard,When my friend and I (two ladies of a certain age) go out to have a meal, she always leaves an extremely large tip. At times, the tipwill equal the amount of one of the main dishes—sometimes it comes to about 30 per cent of the bill. I feel 15—20 per cent is adequate for services offered and depending on the type of restaurant. At a cafe I would like to leave 15 per cent or a bit more depending on the service and etc. A larger tip would be appropriate if we are in a big city or a nicer place. My friend says “Well, I am sure they are not driving a Mercedes (奔驰汽车).” Well, neither am I, and how does she know? Who is correct and how can I make changes? I might add I do truly feel tipping should be based on good service, and also if you frequent a place and know the staff a larger tip is OK. I would never hesitate to tip a waitperson.I always leave to the higher side.Yours,Barbara BadeBarbara Bade,Americans are more generous tippers than the British. I suspect that 2014 per cent for a tip is about normal in the UK. Tipping is a strange survival in our age of supposed equality and minimum wages. Your friend has a generous nature and deep purse. I do not see why you cannot let her tip whatever she wants, and do your own thing. I agree that a tip should be a reward for good service and general good feeling. If the service is rotten and the meal a disaster, we should withhold a tip and explain why we are doing so. Few of us have the chutzpah (厚颜) to do this. Sensible restaurants have a box for tips, so that they are shared out among the staff, including those in the kitchens whom we do not see. (I trust that the management does not receive the money as extra profit.) I look forward to the day when waiters and other servants are paid a good enough living wage, sothat they do not have to depend on the generosity of strangers to survive. To wait at table is just as honorable a way to earn a livingin this wicked world. If you are pleased with the meal and cheerful service, you should tip as handsomely as your purse affords. I don’t suppose that your waiter / waitress is driving a Mercedes, even in the States.Yours,Philip Howard60.

These days, they are looking for at-risk kids to prevent personal or academic troubles before they arise. Nowadays, students and families need the guidance more than ever.Counselors play a steadying role in schools as the economy weighs on families, college admission becomes even more competitive, immigration continues to reshape the population and state-testing pressures many students. They use computers to search through attendance data, grades and standardized test scores for kids who might need extra help.Schlatter, director of guidance and counseling at Prince William County’s Woodbridge Senior High School, has checked attendance records against grades and test results to start peer groups (同年龄群体) for students who are failing classes but not skipping them. She said group counseling is another way to reach more students though it can be dif ficult. “Kids really do start helping and sharing with each other.”At Fairfax High School, counselors found through surveys that students who transferred (转学) to the school after ninth grade enjoyed school significantly less than those who had been there all four years. The counseling staff set up a special program and group for new arrivals in response, said Marcy Miller, the school’s director of student services. Counseling staff members also have started small study groups for students to prepare for state Standards of Learning exams, which Miller said have helped raise test scores. She said that some of the newest counselors have had some of the freshest ideas.63.

But then, what would he do?Suddenly he heard a bird’s wings beating the dry grass. Ben moved quickly toward the sound.He saw a colored head ... the head of a beautiful bird. The bird did not move until Ben came close. Then it tried to fly away, but onewing was broken.Ben lifted the bird and held it close against his body. The bird fought to escape, but soon lay quietly in Ben’s arms.Ben decided to take the bird home and fix its broken wings so that it could fly again.He was almost out of the woods when he heard the hunter behind him.“You just found that bird?” the hunter asked.“Yes,” Ben answered.“It is mine!”Ben was afraid and tried to answer, but his mouth was too dry to speak. Nevertheless, he wetted his lips and said, “No.”“I shot him and I say he is mine!”“But he is not dead yet,” Ben answered, “and besides, anything on my land belongs to me.”The hunter looked down at the little man and smiled. “Say, who are you?”Ben’s voice shook with both fear and anger. “I own this land. There are signs everywhere that say, ‘No hunting’.”“No need to get angry, mister,” the hunter said. “Control yourself.”There was something threatening in the man’s cool quiet voice. And he had a gun. His arms were free and Ben’s were not.The hunter stepped closer and said, “Give me that bird!”Ben was white with anger. “No!” he answered. His eye glasses became wet and he had to look over the top of them to see the other man.“Give me the bird and I will go away,” the hunter said.“You get off my land,” Ben told him. “Get off right now...you do not belong here!”The man’s face got red. “Mister,” he said, “I have been hunting here all my life. I grew up here.”“That is a thing of the past,” Ben said. “I do not know who you are and I do not care. I own this place now and I am telling you to leave. You go back through the woods and get off my land!”“Now look, mister,” the hunter said, “be reasonable.”The hunter raised his gun.A cold wind blew across Ben’s face. He looked into the hunter’s gray eyes. Ben was frightened. It was not too late, he thought. He could still give the bird to the hunter and return safely home...that would end this whole ugly business.The bird struggled weakly and made a wild, strange noise.Then Ben knew he could never give this bird to the hunter. This feeling gave Ben great strength, and he was no longer afraid.“I will never let you kill this bird,” he said. “Get away from here. If you try to take this bird, I will fight...you have a gun and you are bigger, but that does not worry me. You will never get this bird...you will have to kill me first.”The two men looked at each other. Ben’s fear returned. His knees began to shake and he felt sick. Yet he stood straight, wondering what would happen next.They stood close to each other for a long time. The woods were strangely quiet.
