AIf you have a bad habit of losing things, a new device that can be connected to any item that you might lose may be the way to solve your problem. The Tile, a small square linked up to your iPhone or iPad via Bluetooth, lets you see how close you are to the missing item, within a 50-to 150-foot range . If the item goe s out of your phone’s 150-foot range, it can still be detected (发现) on other smartphones with the same app.When you log into the app on your phone, it shows you, with green bars that increase or decrease, how far away you are from the Tile. You can also program it to make a sound when you get close to the Tile. And you can link up your phone with up to ten Tiles. And if your lost item — a dog, for example, or a stolen bike —goes out of your own phone’s 150-foot Bluetooth range, youcan set it as a “lost item”. If any of the phones with the Tile app comes within the range of your lost item, a message will be sent to your own phone, reminding you of its position. The Tile app also has the function to remember where it last saw your Tile, so that you can easily find where you left it.Since the Tiles use Bluetooth rather than GPS, they never run out of battery or need to be charged, and they last for one year before needing to be replaced. The app, which will come into the market this winter, works with iPhone 5S, iPhone 6, iPad Mini, iPad 3rd and 4th generation, and iPod 5th generation.1. The Tile app can help you .A. find your missing itemsB. use your phone more wiselyC. save your phone’s battery powerD. connect something to your phone2. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. The Tile needs to be charged after a year of use.B. One smartphone can only be linked up to one Tile.C. The Tile cannot work when linked up to a phone without Bluetooth.D. A missing item can’t be found if it goes out of the needed range.3. What does the second paragraph mainly tell us?A. What the Tile app is.B. How the Tile app works.C. The advantages of the Tile app.D. Why the Tile app was invented.4. Where does this passage probably come from?A. A science fiction novel.B. An advertisement.C. A personal diary.D. A news report.BThe island of Port Cros is in the south of France. I first visitedit about ten years ago with my wife. I had read that it was a magical place and it seemed fascinating (迷人的), but I couldn’t believe that it was true. In fact, it was much more magical than the tourist brochures (指南) had said.The island is mountainous and covered in trees. The water around the island is transparent like glass. When I first visited it, there was mist rising from the trees. The little harbor looked mysterious and remote: tall palm trees, a few shops and restaurants, no cars, motorcycles or bikes.It is not by chance that the island has kept its natural beauty. Once, it was privately owned and the owners always wanted to keep it in its natural state. In 1963, Port Cros became a national park. The park directors made some rules to protect the island. They didn’t allow any new building projects. There is only one hotel and no camping is allowed. Vi sitors can’t use mountain bikes or smoke on the island. Sailing boats that visit the island mustn’t damage the bottom of the sea or pollute the water around it.When we arrived, we started walking to the beach of Port-Man, which was the furthest beach from the port. It took us two hours and when we arrived, the beach was deserted. It seemed that we were the only people on the island. Time seemed to stop. It was so beautiful that we stayed there all day. I visited there again last summer. Nothing had changed. The island still looked magical and mysterious, still with few tourists. It must be wonderful to stay the night on the island, I thought. After all the visitors have gone, the island must be so quiet—a real paradise (天堂)!5. The author got to know Port Cros at first due to _____.A. some tourist brochuresB. his wife’s introductionC. his first visit thereD. some TV programs6. How has the natural beauty of the island been kept according to the text?A. Foreign visitors are not allowed to visit it.B. Nothing has been built in the park there.C. Only bikes can be used on the island.D. Sailing boats mustn’t pollute the water.7. When the author first visited Port Cros, _____.A. it was very sunnyB. there were few visitors thereC. it took them a whole day to walk to Port-ManD. the island was deserted and he stayed there for a whole nightCCamp Jano IndiaCelebrate Indian culture, languages, arts, festivals and literature.

Though bids (出价) above the initial asking price of 1 million dollars had been coming in gradually since the copy was placed on the auction site (拍卖网站) eBay on July 14th, things really started to heat up during the final minutes when the price jumped from $2.5 to $2.6 and then $2.7 million, before shooting up to unbelievable 3,207,852 dollars!This of course was no ordinary Superman comic book, but an edition of the extremely sought-after (很吃香地) No. 1 of Action Comics series — the first publication of the superhero that was born from the creative minds of teenagers Joe Shuster and Jerry Siegel. Though Action Comics No. 1, which depicted a diaper-clad baby Superman lifting furniture, had a print run of 200,000 copies, only about 100 are known to exist today.While the rarity is certainly a reason for the high price, Stephen Fisher, CEO of , thinks it also has a lot to do with the fact that Superman was the world’s first superhero! Even so, none of the copies have been able to fetch (售得) as much as the most recent one, simply because they have not been as well-preserved. Graded a rare 9 out of 10 by CGC, a third party grading service for comic books, the book is the highest rated copy of Action Comics No. 1 so far. According to CGC officials, the 76-year-old comic book looks and feels as though it has just come off the newsstand (报摊).That is not surprising given that the original owner, a Virginian man who bought the book for only 10 cents in 1938, had carefully tucked it away (藏起来) in a wooden box for four decades. Fortunately, when he passed away, the book was bought by a string of collectors who all realized it was a rare treasure that needed to be looked after.Before this, the highest price paid for an Action Comics No.1 had been $2 million for a copy sold by Hollywood actor Nicholas Cage in 2011. Ironically, the two teenagers responsible for creating Superman received just 130 dollars when they sold the rights to the superhero to comic book publisher Detective Comics in 1938.12. When the Superman comic book was placed on eBay on July 14th, .A. it attracted no attention at allB. things started to heat up immediatelyC. the bid price didn’t go up very quickly at firstD. people thought it was worth millions of dollars13. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?A. Why the comic book is well-preserved.B. Why the comic book is well worth reading.C. Why the comic book is worth so much money.D. Why the comic book has drawn so much attention.14. When the other collectors got the comic book after the Virginian man, they .A. all took very good care of itB. all liked reading it very muchC. didn’t believe it was worth a fortuneD. all kept it in the same way as that man15. What do we know about the creators of Superman?A. They didn’t want to sell the rights to a comic bookpublisher.B. They knew all along Superman would be the most successful comic book.C. They were professional comic book writers when they created Superman.D. They didn’t make much money from creati ng Superman.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。

BOne hundred grandmothers were asked how good manners had changed since they were children, what they expected of their own children when they were growing up and how their grandchildren behave today.Although the grannies were united in the belief that good manners cost nothing they unwillingly came to the conclusion that all the old little courtesies (礼节) are gradually being erased. Some children are not taught simple good manners by their parents, in the belief that they should be free to express themselves.Manners at mealtimes revealed the greatest inter-generational difference. While 92 percent of grandparents and 87 percent of their children sat down at the table with all the family to eat at least once a day, nowadays this applies to just 54 percent of children.Traditional family mealtimes have been on a slippery slope for many years and this survey reveals an apparent corresponding decline in table manners. One grandmother said: My grandchildren have bad table manners as they haven’t been taught them by their parents. Only 49 percent of children today have to ask to get down from the table compared with 89 percent of their grandparents and 80 percent of their parents. Keeping your elbows off the table is almost totally unnecessary, with just 19 percent of grandchildren still expected to stick to the old rule. However, some parents are still keeping family mealtimes alive, with even the smallest children joining them at the table in their highchairs whether it is their mealtime or not.Although some little courtesies may no longer be encouraged today, good old fashioned “please” and “thank you” seem to have weathered the storm. Nevertheless, there has bee n a big downturn in writing thank you letters, from 86 percent of grandparents to just 35 percent of grandchildren putting pen to paper today.A final word from one wise grandmother: “If there weren’t rules there would be nothing for kids to break, no risk to take, no scars to show for mistakes. Rules let you fly.”41. Which of the following would some modern parents most probably agree with?A. Good manners are very important.B. Kids should show who they really are.C. It is easy for kids to learn good manners.D. Kids should learn from their grandparents.42. According to the survey, 81 percent of kids .A. put their elbows on the tableB. usually eat in their highchairsC. have meals with all the familyD. ask permission to leave the table43. What might many kids be encouraged to do?A. Apologize sincerely face to face.B. Show appreciation by writing letters.C. Talk about the weather with strangers.D. Express thankfulness in spoken words.44. What is the author’s attitude towards sticking to traditional courtesies?A. He is uncertain about it.B. He is mildly critical.C. He approves of it.D. He is strongly against it.45. Which can be the best title for the text?A. How to Express Yourself?B. Change the Unnecessary Rules.C. Are Good Manners a Thing of the Past?D. Grandmothers Caring for Grandkids. Keys: 41-45 BABBC第二部分阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2.5分,满分50分)阅读下列短文.从每题所给的B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。

So it was very excited to spend money on shopping, nights out, and all the junk food my mum had never let me eat. I managed to max out (达到最高限度) my account within three months and suddenly life wasn’t so much fun.I spent the last two weeks before Easter on a diet of porridge and became self-loathing (自我憎恨的) and I also blamed Asda (阿斯达超市) for all the two-for-one deals I couldn’t resist. Now I’m working full-time to repay my debts. I’m also setting up a separate bank account for my student loan to go into to cover rent and bills. So I’ll be able to keep an eye on my spending.With a lot of hard work and saving over the holidays I’m hoping that I’ll be in better financial shape for next year. After my experience in halls — being kept awake until 4 a.m. and work surfaces permanently covered in mind —I’m looking forward to moving into a house with friends. The partying and social life i n halls are fantastic, but sometimes you’re put wit h people you don’t get on with, and it’s hard to cope with that. It helped me to stay strong, but I wish I had stood up to them rather than felt bullied.I had a really bad time in my first year, which is why I’m going to make the most of universitynext year. I’m going to balance work with a social life, hit Freshers’ week hard and join some societies. With university handing me so many opportunities on a plate, I want to take up as many as I can and enjoy myself.41.

From this text we can see that the author .A. gained a lot of money through workingB. didn’t get on well with her workmatesC. felt bullied by her friendsD. worked and slept in a bad condition44. The author made up her mind to next year.A. make good use of her university lifeB. find a better jobC. take up more platesD. form some organizations45. The author mainly introduces her in the passage.A. opportunities at first year of universityB. freshman experiences at universityC. working experiences at universityD. thoughts on her daily SpendingCMost people may think that people who write computer code must be good at math and logical thinking. However, people who write computer code say that creativity is also an important quality for coding.Software developers in the American state of California have created a game called Osmo Coding Jam. The game is designed to help children use the creative side of their minds as they learn to code. Children can play the game on iPads. There are many activities they can do by the game.Tanya Dodge is the mother of two children, nine-year-old Dylan and his 11-year-old sister Meghan, who play the game. According to her, these activities give them important skills for the future. “It’s an analytical skill that the kids are going to need to have as they grow up today” said Dodge.But the developers of Osmo Coding Jam believe writing code should be more than just an analytical skill. “We want to explore the creative side of coding that I think is often not as explored,” said Felix Hu, an Osmo engineer. Hu added, “The coolest part is that we’re teaching kids how to be creative with code and that’s a really important thing that kids should get comfor table with because coding is creative.”Hu also sees a growing number of parents who feel that software code is a second language thatchildren need to learn to succeed in future jobs. Tanya Dodge, the mother of Dylan and Meghan, consents. She said, “I think you’re going to have to understand at some point the idea of coding will work well in the fu ture.”Hu also explained that very often kids grow up not understanding how a computer works or just thinking that it’s like a magical machine. He said by breaki ng it down to a lower level, kids can understand that the computer isn’t as smart as they think it is.46. Osmo Coding Jam is designed for .A. training kids’ logical thinkingB. helping kids learn to code fastC. helping children learn math wellD. helping kids become more creative47. What does Tanya Dodge think of Osmo Coding Jam?A. It needs to be improved.B. It is highly addictive for kids.C. It is of great help to today’s kids.D. It is imperfect in training kids’ anal ytical skill.48. Which of the following statements is True according to the text?A. Tanya Dodge agrees that coding is good for children to succeed in future jobs.B. Many parents doubts whether coding will help children work well in the future.C.

To show the importance of creativity.DThe health of millions could be at risk because supplies of medicinal plants are being used up. These plants are used to make traditional medicine, inclu ding drugs to fight cancer. “The loss of medicinal plants is a quiet disaster,” says Sara Oldfield, secretary general of the NGO Botanic Gardens Conservation International.Most people worldwide rely on herbal (药草制的) medicines which are got mostly from wild plants. But some 15,000 of the 50,000 medicinal species are under threat of dying out, according to report from the international conservation group Plantlife. Shortages have been reported in China, India, Kenya, Nepal, Tanzania and Uganda.Over-harvesting does the most harm, though pollution and competition from invasive species (入侵物种) and habita t destruction all contribute. “Businessmen generally harvest medicinal plants, not caring about sustainability (可持续性),” the Plantlife report says, “damage is serious partly because they have no idea about it, but it is mainly because such collection is unorganized.” Medicinal trees at risk include the Himalayan yew (紫衫) and the African cherry, which are used to treat some cancers.The solution, says the report’s author, Alan Hamilton, is to encourage local people to protect these plants. Ten projects studied by Plantlife in India, Pakistan, China, Nepal, Uganda and Kenya showed this method can succeed. In Uganda, the project has kept a sustainable supply of low-cost cancer treatments, and in China a public-run medicinal plant project has been created for the first time.”“Improving health, earning an income and keeping cultural traditions are important in encouraging peo ple to protect medicinal plants,” says Hamilton, “You have to pay attention to what people are interested in.”Ghillean Prance, the former director of the Royal Botanic Gardens at Kew in London, agrees that medicinal plants are in need of protection. “Not nearly enough is being done,” he told New Scientist. “We are destroying the very plants that are of most use to us.”51. From the first two paragraphs, we can learn that .A. millions of people are threatened with-cancerB. most countries see a shortage of herbal medicinesC. about two thirds of medicinal species will disappearD. a number of medicinal species are in danger of extinction52. The major factor that causes the decreasing of supplies of medicinal plants is .A. pollutionB. habitat destructionC. over-harvestingD. invasive species53. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 3 refers to .A. over-harvestingB. sustainabilityC. other species’ invasionD. pollution54. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Protecting medicinal plants has a long way to go.B. Ghillean Prance is optimistic about medicinal plants’ future.C. Local people don’t know how to protect medicinal plants.D. China has made great progress in protecting medicinal plants.55. Which of the following is the best title of the passage?A. Low-cost Cancer TreatmentB. The Importance of SustainabilityC. Medicinal Plants on Verge of ExtinctionD.

year’s Lite-On Awards and was exhibited last summer at the Xue Xue Institute in Taipei, Taiwan Province Though the figures look impressive, it is important to remember that the design is still at a

influencing our fate (命运), but hopowerful we are in shaping our own character and, therefore, our own fate Character may determine our fate, but character is not determined by fateIt’s a mon mistake to think of character as something that is fully formed and fixed very early in life It calls to mind old proverbs like “A leopard can’t change its spots” and “You can’t teach an old dog netricks”This perspective that our character is “etched in stone” is supported by a great deal of modern psychology emphasizing self-acceptance As Popeye says, “I am what I am” The hidden message isDon’t expect me to be more, better, or different Ultimately, these views of humanity totally undervalue the lifelong potential for growth that es with the power of reflection and choiceHodepressing it would be to believe that we can’t choose to be better, more honest, more respectful, more responsible, and more caring None of us should give up the personal seeking to improve our character Not because we’re bad, we don’t have to be sick to get better , but because we’re not as good as we could beThere are so many things in life we can’t control, whether we’re beautiful or smart, whether we had good parents or bad, whether we greup with affirmation or negation It’s inspiring to remember that nothing but moral will power is needed to makeus betterNo, it isn’t easy But if we make a great effort to bee more aware of the habits of heart and mind that drive our behavior, we can begin to place neemphasis on our higher values so that we bee what we want our children to think we are51 What is the best title of the passage?A We shape our own characterB Character determines our fateC Character is fully formed and fixedD We must meet what our children need52 The author agrees that _____________A a leopard can’t change its spotsB in life we must attach importance to self-acceptanceC we shouldn’t expect us to be more differentD character is not fully formed and fixed very early53 In the author’s opinion, which of the following is TRUE?A We can’t choose to be betterB We should seek to improve our character for we’re bad enoughC We should value our lifelong potential for growthD We should make choices constantly54 What do we need to improve ourselves according to the author?A Our smartnessB Our will powerC Our fateD Our character55 What can we infer from the passage?A It is not

BOne famous surgeon always made it a rule to spend at least 15 minutes on general reading before he went to sleep each night. Whether he went to bed at 10 p. m. or 2: 30a. m. made no difference. Even if you cannot keep to this kind of discipline, it is a good idea to make sure you always have a general interest book in your pocket. Don't forget it should be a book which entertains you and the English must not be too difficult for you.Nearly all "speed reading"courses have a "pacing"element﹣﹣﹣﹣some timing device which lets the students know how many words a minute he is reading. You can do this simply by looking at your watch 5or 10minutes and noting down the page number you have reached. Check the average number of words per page for the particular book you are reading. Pace yourself every three or four days, always with the same kind of easy. You should soon notice your habitual w. p. m. rate ________. Obviously there is little point in increasing your w. p. m. rate if you do not understand what you are reading. When you are consciously trying to increase your reading speed, stop after every chapter if you are reading a novel or every section or group of ten or twelve pages if it is a textbook and ask yourself a few questions about what you have been reading. If you find you have lost the thread of the story, or you can't remember clearly the details of what was said, reread the section or chapter.Try this from time to time. Take four or five pages of the general interest book you happen to be reading at the time. Read them as fast as you possibly can. Don't bother about whether you understand or not. Now go back and read them at what you feel to be your "normal" w. p. m. rate, the rate at which you can comfortably understand. After "lightning speed" exercises, you will usually find that your "normal" speed has increased perhaps by as much as 50 ﹣ 100 w. p. m. This is the technique athletes use when they habitually run further in training than they will have to on the day of the big race.(1)The famous surgeon mentioned in the first paragraph is an example of the people who________.A make it a rule to read at 10 p. m. or 2:30 a. m. every dayB are in the habit of doing regular reading every day no matter how busy they areC always have an interesting book in their pocketsD habitually go to bed late.(2)A pacing device of a reading course is aimed at enabling the students to________.A assess their reading speedB speed up their readingC check their comprehensionD do the most efficient reading.(3)Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the passage?________A It is always a good idea to carry in your pocket an easy and interesting English book.B The purpose of the lightning speed exercise is to help you win the English contest.C To pace yourself, you should use books with more or less the samedegrees of difficulty. D You can never ignore your comprehension when you try to increase your reading speed..(4)What does the underlined phrase "creep up"in paragraph 2 mean?________A decreaseB stopC increaseD slow down.(5)The author writes this passage mainly to________.A emphasize the importance of readingB classify different kinds of reading materialsC give suggestions for reading practiceD set a pace in reading.19. CSome children are natural﹣born bosses. They have a strong need to make decisions, manage their environment, and lead rather than follow. Stephen Jackson, a Year One student, "operates under the theory of what's mine is mine and what's yours is mine, " says his mother. "The other day I bought two new Star Wars light sabers (剑). Later, I saw Stephen with the two new ones while his brother was using the beat﹣up ones.""Examine the extended family, and you'll probably find a bossy grandparent, aunt, uncle or cousin in every generation. It't an ________, " says Russell Barkley, a professor at the Medical University of South Carolina. Other children who may not be particularly bossy can gradually gain dominance(支配地位) when they sense their parents areweak, hesitant, or in disagreement with each other.Whether it's inborn nature or developed character at work, too much control in the hands at the young isn't healthy for children or the family, Fear is at the root of a lot of bossy behavior, says family psychologist John Taylor. Children, he says in his book From Defiance to Cooperation, "have secret feelings of weakness"and "a desire to feel safe." It's the parents'role to provide that protection.When a "boss child" doesn't learn limits at home, the stage is set for a host of troubles outside the family. The overly willful and unbending child may have trouble obeying teachers or coaches, for example, or trouble keeping friends. It can be pretty lonely as the top dog if no one likes your bossy ways."I see more and more parents giving up their power, " says Barkley, who has studied bossy behavior for more than 30 years. "They bend too far because they don't want to be as strict as their own parents were. But they also feel less confident about their parenting skills. Their kids, in turn, feel more anxious."(1)Bossy children like Stephen Jackson________.A make good decisionsB show self﹣centerednessC lack care fromothers D have little sense of fear.(2)The underlined phrase "inheritable trait" in Paragraph 2 means________.A inborn natureB developed characterC accepted theoryD particular environment.(3)The study on bossy behavior in the last two paragraphs implies that parents________.A should give more power to their childrenB should be strict with theirchildren C should not be so anxious about their children D should not set limits for their children.(4)Bossy children may probably become________.A relaxedB skillfulC hesitantD lonely.(5)What is the passage mainly about?________A How bossy behavior can be controlled.B How we can get along with bossy children.C What leads to children's bossy behavior.D What effect bossy behavior brings about.20. DIn some society it is the custom for parents to arrange the marriages of their children. The father and mother of the bride will meet with the father and mother of the groom, and if both families are pleased with each other, an agreement will be made. Often the brides and grooms will not be asked for their opinion in this matter, and sometimes they do not even meet each other until the day of the wedding. In some countries, men advertise for mail order brides in the local paper.Most Americans find the idea of arranged marriages difficult to understand or accept. They believe that two people should marry for love, after a period of dating or courtship(追求). During that period, the prospective(未来的)marriage partners are supposed to learn enough about each other to decide whether or not they will be able to build a successful marriage. Today in America, it is common for people to live together as a way of preparing for marriage. The idea of an arranged marriage seems very old﹣fashioned indeed.But aren't all marriages arranged in one way or another? In the United States marriages are seldom formally arranged, but quite a lot of informal arranging goes on before two people become husband and wife. People who get married are introduced to each other by friends. These friends have already decided that the two people are right for each other and arrange for them to meet. In the United States this kind of arrangement is very common. Because friends have such great influence, their approval of a dating or mating partner is very important.Families also exert(运用) open and subtle(巧妙的) pressures on their children to influence their choices of marriage partners. Parents often arrange dates for their own children. One parent often tells a friend about her beautiful daughter or handsome son. Also, parents can meet the perfect marriage prospect for their son or daughter through business relationships. Since parents often assist their children financially, they feel that they have the right to help the bride and groom select where they will live, what type of furniture they will purchase, and what their life﹣style will be like.To a large extent, social class determines the choice of a marriage partner in the United States. Marriages are usually arranged between people of similar religious, ethnic, and financial backgrounds. Despite what we see in the movies, the son of a bank president rarely marries or even meets a coal miner's daughter. Americans may not accept or understand arranged marriages, but marriages in the United States are arrangednevertheless.(1)Which of the following can be chosen as the best title of this passage?________A American's MarriageB Arranged marriageC Marriage for LoveD Perfect Marriage.(2)Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage?________A Some couples marry according to their parents' arrangement.B Some men seek their future wife by advertising in the newspaper.C The Americans will not live together before their marriage.D Friends and parents usually play an important rolein arranging marriage..(3)According to paragraph two, most Americans consider that________.A financial status determines the choice of a marriage partnerB young men and women should get married as soon as they fall in loveC arranged marriages are definitely not understood and acceptedD love plays an important role in marriage.(4)According to the passage, all of the following statements are true except that________.A in arranged marriages, the brides and grooms never meet before theirwedding B many Americans think the idea of arranged marriage out ofdate C marriages are seldom formally arranged in America D a lot of informally arranged marriages exist in America.(5)We can draw the conclusion that________.A children always ask their parents for opinions about marriageB the author thinksthat in America marriages still bear class character C it's unusual for Americans to live together as a way of preparing for marriages D despite the different backgrounds,people still marry in America.第一节阅读表达(满分10分)阅读下列短文,按照要求用英语问答问题.21. I was interested in becoming a model at first. I worked as a receptionist in a beauty shop during high school. It was in South Dakota. A woman, who worked for Vogue﹣a fashion magazine, said to me, "Why don't you go to New York and be a model?"So I went to New York at eighteen. I went to the first model agency, they thought that I was too long﹣waisted. It was too bad since I came from South Dakota﹣﹣﹣far away from New York. I looked in the telephone book. Hunting Hartford had just bought the agency. So I went there. I was in such a hurry that I couldn't give my name to the receptionist. About half an hour later, the man who had just taken over the agency﹣﹣﹣he had been a male model before﹣﹣﹣came in. I was just staring at this ________ when he said, "You! Come into my office!"How do you feel as a fashion model? Quite OK, I should say. But you stop thinking when you are working. It takes a lot of nervous energy as well because the camera goes one,two, three very fast and you have to move very fast. I like my job because it gives mefreedom. I can have half a day off to do things I like. I can't do that if I do a normal job. I never like becoming a secretary. They have to sit in the office for eight hours a day, facing the same people.Most models, after one or two years, can't be still very interested in it. But I like being a model.

A Guide to the Sports CenterB. Rules od MembershipC. An introduction to the Fitness MachinesD. Activities of the Sports CenterBMy husband and I sat outside. A small child about three came up the street, accompanied by her mother. As she saw another girl a few feet away, she gave her admiring comment, "Mommy, I like her dress." Her mom replied , "Well, why don't you go and tell her?"The little girl walked shyly toward the girl wearing the pretty dress. The other one, likely the same age, was standing with her back turned, alongside her parents. They had not heard the compliment (赞美). Receiving no answer, this little one hesitated. My husband said to the other girl, " Someone wants to tell you something." As she turned around, connection was made. Once again, the little one announced"I like your dress," and upon hearing those words, the other one gave her a big smile and excitedly shared"Look, it's a spinning (旋转) dress!", at which moment she began to spin in circles. Both of them smiled widely.Now, the one stopped spinning and said, "It's my favorite dress and I have (a) shoes that match!"She took off running toward a stroller (婴儿车) parked nearby.The mom and the daughter started to head down the street, thinking the encounter (邂逅) had ended. Moments later, the "spinning dress girl" reappeared, shoes in hand, looking for her new friend who had seemingly disappeared. Now, an elderly couple, seated on a bench, had obviously been watchful of all this. The man stopped the child, saying, "There's someone coming behind you." Then we saw one showed and the other admired the beautiful shoes.If you can make a moment better, do it. I have no idea how many others that evening might have observed this act, hoping to help good things to happen. But such brief moments, threaded together, make up what might very well be the important times in our lives.41.

This is a question asked by so many writers of children’s literature. The children’s literature market is a big market. Being a writer of children’s literature, I did some research into the literary market for children, finding some trends.Children tend to like reading a series on their favorite characters. However, when trying to sell your book to an agent or a publisher, you should sell it as a stand-alone book. Focus your mind on the story that you've written instead of thinking about future unwritten stories. If the book is published and does well in the market, the publisher will be open to extending the story into a series.Over the years the picture book market has been slow. Small children, the prime "readers" of picture books, tend to not request their parents to purchase books for them. They cannot read for themselves and have to depend on others to read for them. To appeal to children with no reading skills, a writer should focus more on showing his/her story through vivid and colorful pictures. Also, writers must take into consideration the amount of time the average parent is willing to spend reading to their children.Many teens enjoy reading young adult novels based on what is known as dark concept stories. Dark concept books are stories with vampires(吸血鬼), demons(魔鬼), and other supernatural creatures. The villain(坏蛋), though, has some goodness and in a way is a victim. Also such characters share the same experiences that a typical 16-20-year-old has. They feel sad, get happy, fall in love, and even can be taken advantage of.When writing a children's hook, keep in mind the trends in the market. Read published books, both the best sellers and poor sellers, using them as references. However, be careful not to imitate other writers’styles, not to use their characters, and not to use their plots. To become a popular writer, you should dig deep and work hard to make your story unique and interesting.46. In the author's opinion, picture books should _____.A. be visually pleasing and somewhat parent-friendlyB. have no words and more picturesC. have more interesting storiesD. be sold at a low price47. According to the text, dark concept books _____.A. are full of violenceB. have many heroic imagesC. become more popular than other onesD. reflect the life of young adults in some ways48. According to the last paragraph, what matters much to a writer is his/her _____.A. writing experiencesB. creative powerC. fame in the marketD. relationship with other writers49. What can be learned from the text?A. Few writers focus on the trends in children's literature.B. A story series is not advised to be finished at one time.C. Writers should be good at writing various books.D. Picture books are only aimed at younger children.50. Who are the intended readers of the text?A. Children.B. Parents.C. Writers.D. Publishers.DDo you ever wish for a little more time to do everything you need to do? Well, on July 1 you'll be getting it —but only one more second.On July 1 at exactly 7:59:59 a.m. Beijing time (or on June 30 at 23:59:59 UTC, Coordinated Universal Time). the world's atomic (原子的) clocks will pause for a single second, or, more precisely, change to the unusual time of 7:59:60, according to . The addition of a leap second (闰秒), announced by the Paris Observatory, is to keep our clocks in time with the slowing of Earth's rotation (旋转) and astronomical time as measured by the sun.Just one extra second could cause big problems and affect the way computers and websites work, however. When the last leap second was added back in 2012, more than a few websites had some trouble. As reported by , popular sites like the community website Reddit crashed when the leap second was added.For Reddit, the problem was eventually found to be with a Linux system that got confused when it checked the network time and found an extra second.Spesaking to Wired about the problem back in 2012, Linux creator Linus Torvalds commented: “Almost every time we have a leap second, we find something. It's really annoying, because it's code(代码) that is almost never used, and thus not tested by users under their normal conditions.”Companies have had to think of their own solutions, and Google's "leap smear" may be thebest-known example. As company engineer Christopher Pascoe explains in a blog post, companies usually try to fix the problem by turning back the clocks by one second at the end of the day so that play that second again.However, Pascoe believes this creates problems. He asked: "What happens? Does e-mail that comes in during that second get stored correctly?" Google has a solution: Cut the extra second into milliseconds and then put these tiny amounts of time into the system throughout the day. "This means that when it became time to add an extra second at midnight," says Pascoe. "Our clocks have already taken this into account over the course of the day."For many companies without Google's money, however, the leap second will likely still cause some crashes. Don't worry, though —at least it won't last long!51. Why do we need to add a leap second?A. The world's atomic clocks are set to do so.B. To keep in time with the world's computers.C. To keep atomic clocks in time with the slowing of Earth's rotation.D. To record the changes to astronomical time.52. What happened to the website Reddit when the leap second was added in 2012?A. It crashed because of a virus attack.B. Its network time added two extra seconds.C. All of the code in its Linux system went wrong.D. One of its software systems got confused and the site broke down.53. What does the underlined word "something" refer to in the 5' paragraph?A. The code not working properly.B. The extra second.C. The problem.D. Normal conditions.54. How do companies usually deal with the problem of the extra second?A. By shutting down computers at the end of the day.B. By stopping receiving emails that come in during that second.C. By turning the clocks back by one second at the end of the day.D. By cutting the extra second into milliseconds throughout the day.55. What's Christopher Pascoc's attitude toward Google's solution to the problem?A.Unfavorable.B. Approving.C. Doubtful.D. Cautious.河东区2017届高三一模答案。
