strategy(策略).There are lessons in that time﹣honored coin﹣saving container.Any huge task seems easier when reduced to baby steps.If you wished to climb a 12,000﹣foot mountain,and could do it a day at a time,you would only have to climb 33 feet daily to reach the top in a year.If you want to take a really nice trip in 10 years for a special occasion,to collect the 15,000cost,youhavetosave3.93 a day.If you drop that into a piggy bank and then once a year put $1,434 in a savings account at 1% interest rate after﹣tax,you will have your trip money.When I was a child,my parents gave me a piggy bank to teach me that,if I wanted something,I should save money to buy it.We associate piggy banks with children,but in many countries,the little containers are also popular with adults.Europeans see a piggy bank as a sign of good fortune and wealth.Around the world,many believe a gift of a piggy bank on New Year's Day brings good luck and financial success.Ah,but you have to put something in it.Why is a pig used as a symbol of saving?Why not an elephant bank,which is bigger and holds more coins?In the Middle Ages,before modern banking and credit instruments,people saved money at home,a few coins at a time dropped into a jar or dish.Potters(制陶工)made these inexpensive containers from an orange﹣colored clay(黏土)called"pygg,"and folks saved coins in pygg jars.The MiddleEnglish word for pig was"pigge".While the Saxons pronounced pygg,referring to the clay,as"pug",eventually the two words changed into the same pronunciation,sounding the"i"as in pig or piggy.As the word became less associated with the orange clay and more with the animal,a clever potter fashioned a pygg jar in the shape of a pig,delighting children and adults.The piggy bank was born.Originally you had to break the bank to get to the money,bringing in a sense of seriousness into savings.While piggy banks teach children the wisdom of saving,adults often need to relearn childhood lessons.Think about the things in life that require large amounts of money﹣﹣﹣college education,weddings,cars,medical care,starting a business,buying a home,and fun stuff like great trips.So when you have money,take off the top 10%,put it aside,save and invest wisely.21.What is the piggy bank strategy?A.Paying 1% income tax at a time.B.Setting a goal before making a travel plan.C.Aiming high even when doing small things.D.Putting aside a little money regularly for future use.22.Why did the writer's parents give him a piggy bank as a gift?A.To delight him with the latest fashion.B.To encourage him to climb mountains.C.To help him form the habit of saving.D.To teach him English pronunciation.23.What does the underlined word"something"(Paragraph 3)most probably refer to?A.MoneyB.GiftsC.Financial successD.Good luck24.The last paragraph talks aboutA.the seriousness of educating childrenB.the enjoyment of taking a great tripC.the importance of managing moneyD.the difficulty of starting a business.12.(6分)Students who date in middle school have significantly worse study skills.They are four times more likely to drop out of school and report twice as much alcohol and tobacco use as their single classmates,according to a new research from the University of Georgia."Romantic relationships are a trademark of adolescence,but very few studies have examined how adolescents differ in the development of these relationships,"said Pamela Orpinas,study author and professor in the College of Public Health and head of the Department of Health Promotion and Behavior.Orpinas followed a group of 624 students over a seven﹣year period from 6th to 12th grade.Each year,the group of students completed a survey indicating whether they had dated and reported the frequency of different behaviors,including the use of drugs and alcohol.Their teachers completed questionnaires about the students'academic efforts.He found some students never or hardly ever reported dating from middle to high school,and these students had consistently the best study skills according to their teachers.Other students dated infrequently in middle school but increased the frequency of dating in high school."At all points in time,teachers rated the students who reported the lowest frequency of dating as having the best study skills and the students with the highest dating as having the worst study skills,"according to the journal article.Study skills refer to behaviors that lead to academic success such as doing work for extra credit being well organized,finishing homework,working hard and reading assigned chapters."Dating a classmate may have the same emotional effect of dating a co﹣worker,"Orpinas said,"When the couple break up,they have to continue to see each other in class and perhaps witness the ex﹣partner dating someone else.It is reasonable to think this could be linked to depression and distract attention from studying.""Dating should not be considered a ceremony of growth in middle school,"Orpinas concluded.25.When doing his study,OrpinasA.followed a group of students of 6th and 12th gradeB.completed a survey and a report each yearC.completed questionnaires about the students'academic effortsD.found that the students'study skills have connection with their frequency of dating 26.Study skills may include the following behaviors and qualities ExceptA.being diligentB.being well organizedC.being kind and helpfulD.finishing assigned schoolwork27.Orpinas'attitude towards dating in middle school isA.supportive B.positive C.negative D.indifferent.13.(8分)Motorists who used to listen to the radio or their favorite tunes on CDs may have a new way to entertain themselves,after engineers in Japan developed a musical road surface.A team from the Hokkaido Industrial Research Institute has built a number of"melody roads",which use cars as tuning forks to play music as they travel.The concept works by using grooves(凹槽).They are cut at very specific intervals in the road surface.The melody road uses the spaces between to create different notes.Depending on how far apart the grooves are,a car moving over them will produce a series of high or low notes,and designers are able to create a distinct tune.Paten documents for the design describe it as notches"formed in a road surface so as to play a melody without producing simple sound or rhythm and reproduce melody ﹣like tones."There are three musical strips in central and northern Japan﹣one of which plays the tune of a Japanese pop song.Reports say the system was invented by ShizuoShinoda.He scraped some markings into a road with a bulldozer before driving over them and found that they helped to produce all kinds of tones.The optimal speed for melody road is 44kph,but people say it is not always easy to get the intended sound."You need to keep the car windows closed to hear well,"wrote one Japanese blogger."Driving too fast will sound like playing fast forward,while driving around 12mph[20km/h]has a slow﹣motion effect,making you almost car﹣sick."28.We can learn from the passage that the highness of notes is depended on.A.how far the grooves areB.how big the grooves areC.the number of the groovesD.the speed of the car29.The underlined word"optimal"in the passage might meanA.fastest B.possible C.best D.slowest30.In order to hear the music well,you have toA.drive very fastB.drive slowlyC.open the windows wideD.keep the windows closed31.What's the best title of the passage?A.A New Type of MusicB.Melody Roads in JapanC.A Musical Road SurfaceD.A New Invention in Japan.14.(8分)Measles (麻疹),which once killed 450 children each year and disabled even more,was nearly wiped out in the United States 14 years ago by the universal use of the MMR vaccine (疫苗).But the disease is making a comeback,caused by a growing anti﹣vaccine movement and misinformation that is spreadingquickly.Already this year,115 measles cases have been reported in the USA,compared with 189 for all of last year.The numbers might sound small,but they are the leading edge of a dangerous trend.When vaccination rates are very high,as they still are in the nation as a whole,everyone is protected.This is called"herd immunity",which protects the people who get hurt easily,including those who can't be vaccinated for medical reasons,babies too young to get vaccinated and people on whom the vaccine doesn't work.But herd immunity works only when nearly the whole herd joins in.When some refuse vaccination and seek a free ride,immunity breaks down and everyone is in even bigger danger.That's exactly what is happening in small neighborhoods around the country from Orange County,California,where 22 measles cases were reported this month,to Brooklyn,N.Y.,where a 17﹣year﹣old caused an outbreak last year.The resistance to vaccine has continued for decades,and it is driven by a real but very small risk.Those who refuse to take that risk selfishly make others suffer.Making things worse are state laws that make it too easy to opt out (决定不参加)of what are supposed to be required vaccines for all children entering kindergarten.Seventeen states allow parents to get an exemption (豁免),sometimes just by signing a paper saying they personally object to a vaccine.Now,several states are moving to tighten laws by adding new regulations for opting out.But no one does enough to limit exemptions.Parents ought to be able to opt out only for limited medical or religious reasons.But personal opinions?Not good enough.Everyone enjoys the life﹣saving benefits vaccines provide,but they'll exist only as long as everyone shares in the risks.32.The first two paragraphs suggest thatA.a small number of measles cases can start a dangerous trendB.the outbreak of measles attracts the public attentionC.anti﹣vaccine movement has its medical reasonsD.information about measles spreads quickly33.Herd immunity works well whenA.exemptions are allowedB.the whole neighborhood is involved inC.several vaccines are used togetherD.new regulations are added to the state laws34.What is the main reason for the comeback of measles?A.The vaccine opt﹣outs of some people.B.The lack of medical care.C.The features of measles itself.D.The overuse of vaccine.35.What is the purpose of the passage?A.To introduce the idea of exemption.B.To stress the importance of vaccination.C.To discuss methods to cure measles.D.To appeal for equal rights in medical treatment.第二节(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.选项中有两项为多余选项.15.(10分)Tips for Staying SharpIt's not abnormal to

dead."Dad,in a hurry to get home before dark so he could go for a run,had forgotten towear his safety belt﹣﹣a mistake 75% of US population make every day.The big question is why.There have been many myths about safety belt ever since their first appearance in cars some forty years ago.The following are three of the most common.Myth Number One:It's best to be"thrown clear"of a serious accident.Truth:Sorry,but any accident serious enough to"throw you clear"is able going to be serious enough to give you a very bad landing.And chances are you'll have traveled through a windshield (挡风玻璃)or door to do it.Studies show that chances of dying after a car accident are twenty﹣five times in cases where people are"thrown clear".Myth Number Two:Safety﹣bets"trap"people in cars that are burning or sinking in water.Truth:Sorry again,but studies show that people knocked unconscious (昏迷)due to not wearing safety belts have a greater chance of dying in these accidents.People wearing safety belts are usually protected to the point of having in these accidents.People wearing safety belts are usually protected to the point of having a clear head to free themselves from such dangerous situation,not to be trapped in them.Myth Number Three:Safety belts aren't needed at speeds of less than 30miles per hour (mph).Truth:When two cars traveling at 30mph hit each other,an unbelted driver would meet the windshield with a force equal to diving headfirst into the ground from a height of 10metres.29.The reason why father was in a hurry to get home was that he.A.wasn't feeling very wellB.hated to drive in the darkC.wanted to take some exerciseD.didn't want to be caught by the people30.Some people prefer to drive without wearing a safety belt because they

given in the test?A.Never drive faster than 30 miles an hour.B.Try your best to save yourself in a car accident.C.Never forget to wear the safety belt while driving.D.Drive slowly while you're not wearing a safety belt.14.(8分)There are two factors which determine an individual's intelligence.The first is the sort of brain he is born with.Human brains differ considerably,some being more capable than others.But no matter how good a brain he has to begin with,an individual will have a low order of intelligence unless he has opportunities to learn.So the second factor is what happens to the individual﹣the sort of environment in which he is reared.If an individual is handicapped envionmentally,it is likely that his brain will fail to develop and he will never attain the level of intelligence of which he is capable.The importance of environment in determining an individual's intellingence can be demonstrated by the case history of the identical twins,Peter and Mark.Being identical,the twins had identical brains at birth,and their growth processes were the same.When the twins were three months old,their parents died,and they were placed in separate foster homes.Peter was reared by parents of low intelligence in an isolated community with poor educational opportunities.Mark was reared in the home of well﹣to﹣do parents who had been to college.He was read to as a child,sent to good schools,and given every opportunity to be stimulated intellectually.This enviromental difference continued until the twins were in their late teens,when they were given tesets to measure their intelligence.Mark'sI.Q.was 125,twenty﹣five points higher than the average and fully forty points higher than his identical brother.Given equal opportunities,the twins,having identical brains,would have tested at roughly the same level.32.This selection can best be titled.A.Measuring Your IntelligenceB.Intelligence and EnvironmentC.The Case of Peter and MarkD.How the brain Influences Intelligence33.According to the passage,the average I.Q.is.A.85B.100C.110D.12534.The case history of the twins appears to support the conclusion that.A.individual with identical brains seldom test at same levelB.an individual's intelligence is determined only by his enviromentC.lack of opportunity blocks the growth of intelligenceD.changes of enviroment produce changes in the structure of the brain35.This passage suggests that an individual's I.Q..A.can be predicted at birthB.stays the same throuthout his lifeC.can be increased by educationD.is determined by his childhood.第二节(满分10分)根据短文内容,从所给选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项.选项中有两项为多余选项.15.(10分)EmpathyLast year,researchers from the University of Michigan reported that empathy,the ability to understand other people,among college students had dropped sharply over the past 10 years.(36)Today,people spend more time alone and areless likely to join groups and clubs.Jennifer Freed,a co﹣director of a teen program,has another explanation.Turn on the TV,and you're showered with news and reality shows full of people fighting,competing,and generally treating one another with no respect.(37)There are good reasons not to follow those bad examples.Humans are socially related by nature.(38)Researchers have also found that empathetic teenagers are more likely to have high self﹣respect.Besides,empathy can be a cure for loneliness,sadness,anxiety,and fear.Empathy is also an indication of a good leader.In fact,Freed says,many top companies report that empathy is one of the most important things they look for in new managers.(39)"Academics are important.But if you don't have emotional (情感的)intelligence,you won't be as successful in work or in your love life,"she says.What's the best way to up your EQ (情商)?For starters,let down your guard and really listen to others.(40)To really develop empathy,you'd better volunteer at a nursing home or a hospital,join a club or a team that has a diverse membership,have a"sharing circle"with your family,or spend time caring for pets at an animal shelter.A.Everyone is different,and levels of empathy differ from person to person.B.That could be because so many people have replaced face time with screen time,the researchers said.C."One doesn't develop empathy by having a lot of opinions and doing a lot of talking,"Freed says.D.Humans learn by example﹣and most of the examples on it are anything but empathetic.E.Empathy is a matte of learning how to understand someone else﹣both what they think and how they feel.F.Good social skills﹣including empathy﹣are a kind of"emotional intelligence"thatwill help you succeed in many areas of life.G.Having relationships with other people is an important part of being human﹣and having empathy is decisive to those relationships.第三部分:英语知识运用(共两节)第一节完型填空(满分30分)阅读下面短文,掌握其大意,然后从各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项.16.(30分)I met Daisy Banks on the way to Maghar.She was walking down the road with her white stick,and I saw her

山东省济南市2017-2018学年高二年级下学期期末考试英语试卷第二部分阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分,满分30分)AAs ever, the Summer Movie Season is full of series and special effects. But if you’re prepared to look for them, you’ll find some smaller, odder films flying beneath the radar.Book Club (May 18): A great quartet(四人组)of actresses (Diane Keaton, Jane Fonda, Candice Bergen, Mary Steenburgen) headline this comedy about a book club that gets back into a romantic mood after reading Fifty Shades Of Grey. It sounds ridiculous, but if that is a hook for a romantic comedy, it will be trying something new.Tag (June 15): This comedy looks like it might share some DNA with The Hangover, as a group of friends reunite over the years to play a never-ending game of tag—Jeremy Renner, Jon Hamm, Hannibal Buress, Jake Johnson, Ed Helms, Leslie Bibb, Rashida Jones and Isla Fisher star. In other words: a lot of people we already know are funny, plus Jeremy Renner!Uncle Drew(June29): The attraction is that a young guy (Lil Rel Howery) has to renew a team of old men—played by NBA legends in old-age makeup—to play alongside his Uncle Drew (Kyrie Irving) in a big neighborhood game. This is such a strange idea for a comedy that I cannot wait to see it. Stars include Shaquille O’ Neal, Nate Robinson, Chris Webber, Lisa Leslie, Reggie Miller, J.B. Smoove and an up-and-coming comedy actress, Tifany Haddish.Skyscraper (July13): It wouldn’t be an action-movie season without Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson running off a crane(起重机)and leaping in a way that in reality would result in certain death but that in a movie results in a safe landing! I’m not here to tell you it’s more than it appears. I’m here to tell you it’s probably exactly as it appears. It comes out on July 13, so perhaps on the hottest day of the summer, forget your troubles and see The Rock save his family.21. Which film can you enjoy this May?A. Book Club.B. Tag.C. Uncle Drew.D. Skyscraper.22. What is strange about Uncle Drew?A. A lot of people in old-age makeup are very funny.B. A young man has to employ some NBA legends to play in a game.C. Some current NBA superstars will star in the film.D. The author cannot wait to see the film.23. Which film is not a comedy?A. Book Club.B. Tag.C. Uncle Drew.D. Skyscraper.【答案】21-23 ABDBHere’s a simple challenge: name a famous inventor. Perhaps Leonardo da Vinci springs to mind. Or the pioneer of the telephone, Alexander Graham Bell. But you might be hard-pressed to name many female inventors, even though women are behind some of the most widely used technologies in the modern world.For example, where would we be without the windscreen wiper? Back on a freezing winter’s day in 1902, Mary Anderson was traveling by tram through New York city. Snow was falling, forcing the driver to stop repeatedly and get out to clear it. Each time the door opened, Mary suffered. She had a brainwave: why not make something that could be operated from inside the vehicle? And that’s exactly what she did.Let’s step in from freezing New York for our next invention. The dishwasher dates back even earlier to the 19th Century, and to the dinner parties thrown by a lady called Josephine Cochrane. As a frequent host, she wanted a machine that could wash dishes faster than people. Her response was to develop what was to become the first commercially successful dishwasher.Need something to do while the dishwasher is on? How about a round of Monopoly(强手棋游戏)? One of the most popular board games around, the rules were first drawn up by a lady called Elizabeth Magie, and patented in 1904.To an altogether different kind of innovation: Kevlar is the lightweight fibre used in bulletproof(防弹)vests. The material is used by millions every day and has saved countless lives and is strength-lo-weight ratio is five times higher than steel.Finally, one of the most important inventions of the 20th Century must surely be the computer programme. The world of programming is unbalanced among men and women, with men taking home around 30% more pay than their female partners on average. But back in the 1940s and 50s, women were at the forefront of this new field and Grace Hopper was one of them.24. What do we know about the inventions mentioned in the text?A. They were mostly made in the 20th century.B. They all used high technology.C. Their inventors came from families of good education.D. They were all made by accident.25. Why did Mary Anderson invent windscreen wiper?A. The winter was extremely cold there.B. She was forced to clear the snow by others.C. The car she drove made her suffer a great deal.D. She was sick of the driver getting out to clear the window.26. Which of the following statements is WRONG according to the text?A. Josephine Cochrane wanted a machine that operated automatically.B. The game invented by Magie was popular merely among teenagers.C. Kevlar is the super tough fibre and stronger than steel.D. Grace Hopper was good at computer programming.27. What is the best title of this passage?A. Women can be Great InventorsB. The Most Useful Inventions by WomenC. The Most Widely Used TechnologiesD. Women Made Greater Contributions than Men【答案】24-27 ADBACWhat do you call your partner—darling, sweetheart, babe? I have been called a little owl, a swan and even a “panda-fish.” No, I’m not a supernat ural, shape-shifting creature or a character in a children’s storybook. I’ve just been in a few relationships where affectionate nicknames appeared as inside jokes.Plenty of my friends have developed nicknames with their romantic partners. I asked the question on Facebook and got all kinds of answers: former boyfriends who knew each other as “Tiger and Teddy.” An American man who dated a Chinese woman told me he called her “Popo”, which means “wife” or “broken broken,” depending on your intonation and she called him “Benben,” which he says means something like “dumb dumb,” referring to his poor mastery of the Chinese language at the time.There seems to be a variety of languages with pet names, too. According to the website of the popular language-learning software Rosetta Stone, the French say “Mon Petit Chou” (my little cabbage or cream puff), the Russians say “Vishenka” (cherry), the Dutch call girlfriends “Dropje” (candy) and in Brazil you can say “Meu Chuchu,” where “chuchu” is a vegetable. In Spain I heard the term “Media Naranja,” meaning half-orange, suggesting that the romantic partners are two halves of the whole.Is there any science behind using pet names? Is it a mark of a healthy relationship, or unhealthy? Are couples who give each other names, ranging from the generic “Honey” and “Sweetie” to the creative “Loopy Lop,” more likely to stay together? And in our digital age, are these nicknames any more important?From what has been studied, and from the experience of several experts, it seems nicknames can be a good thing for a relationship—if both partners are into it.28. Why has the writer been called a little owl, a swan and even a “panda-fish”?A. Because he looks like a owl, a swan and even a “panda-fish”.B. Because he is a supernatural, shape-shifting creature.C. Because nicknames arose as inside jokes in his relationships.D. Because he loves a character in a children’s storybook.29. What did the Chinese woman mean by calling her American boyfriend “Benben”?A. Her boyfriend had a different intonation.B. Her boyfriend had a weak mastery of Chinese.C. She thought the man was very stupid.D. She thought it was a lovely nickname.30. For what purpose do romantic partners in Spain call each other “Media Naranja”?A. To introduce half-orange.B. To show their love for pet names.C. To mean they are both fat.D. To suggest they are two halves of the whole.31. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?A. Couples who give each other nicknames are certain to stay together.B. There must be science behind using pet names.C. Partners who enjoy their nicknames can keep healthy relationships.D. Nicknames are no longer important in our digital age.【答案】28-31 CBDCDDriverless cars are the best-known example of how artificial intelligence is influencing daily life in China, according to a new report on social attitudes toward AI technology that was released at Fudan University on May 17.Based on the responses of 625 questionnaires made by Fudan University’s National Center for Cultural Innovation Research and the communication and data science laboratory, the report states that nearly 90 percent of the respondents are familiar with driverless cars, with over 67, percent having access to both positive and negative information on cars. About 62 percent of the respondents said they were willing to ride in driverless cars. Meanwhile, around 47 percent were supportive of unmanned vehicle road tests in the country. However, more than 30 percent of the respondents expressed their concerns about the safety of driverless cars.If personal injuries or property loss are suffered in the event of an accident, 80.5 percent of the respondents said that the designers of the AI products should bear legal responsibility while 55.5 percent said that vehicle users should also shoulder the blame.Smart cars with partial or fully autonomous functions are expected to account for 50 percent of new vehicles sold in China by 2020.According to the blueprint released by the National Development and Reform Commission in January, the country is aiming to become a global power in smart-car development and production by 2035.“One cannot ignore the risks and ethics issues brought up by artificial intelligence technology,” said Sun Shaojing, director of the Communication and Data Science Laboratory of the National Center for CulturalInnovation Research at Fudan University, “Policies should be strengthened to ensure a balanced development of ethics and science, especially for some fast-growing applications like driverless cars.”32. What do we know about the responses of 625 questionnaires?A. More than half of the people surveyed were willing to ride in driverless cars.B. Nearly 90% knew both positive and negative information on cars.C. Unmanned vehicle road tests were hardly supported in the country.D. Few people were concerned about the safety of driverless cars.33. Who should take responsibility if an accident happened to a driverless car?A. The designers of the AI products.B. Both AI products designers and vehicle users.C. Policy makers who regulate the use of driverless cars.D. It hasn’t been decided yet.34. What does the underlined word “autonomous” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. high-techB. advancedC. self-directedD. useful35. What do Sun Shaojing’s words s uggest in the last paragraph?A. We should mainly focus on the benefit that driverless cars bring to us.B. Effective policies and rules are needed with appliances fast growing.C. Risks and ethics issues brought up by AI cannot be avoided.D. Driverless cars play a significant role in AI technology.【答案】32-35 ADCB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 always say,'I witnessed dozens.'"24.At the beginning of the ski trip,Roger Andersen .A.started his travel with a good feelingB.was too tired to drive his carC.was afraid of driving on the steep roadD.prepared for the possible trouble on the way25.Roger Andersen drove into the Logan River because of .A.the broken carB.his carelessnessC.the bad weatherD.the dangerous road26.What does the third paragraph mainly talk about?A.How Andersen ran into danger.B.What Andersen saw underwater.C.What the children did to help Andersen.D.How Andersen tried to save his children.27.Andersen calls the experience a miracle to .A.stress the frightening accidentB.express his thanks to the rescue groupC.show the danger of driving on mountainsD.show his wish to help those people in needCRegret can be a terrible addiction.Those who suffer from it so often become bitter and full of self-pity.It is an emotion that serious entrepreneurs(企业家)cannot afford,they must keep moving ahead and should not look back.As Alexander Graham Bell,inventor of the telephone said: when one door closes,another opens,but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us.Entrepreneurs must learn to manage the conflict between constant experiment,which means lots of painful mistakes and a fear of failure,which can lead to paralysis(能力丧失).Likewise,past glory can be a killer.For example,Greg Dyke,who is a clever fellow,still looks back too much to his resignation as director-general of the BBC.He should move on and stop complaining about the injustice of it all. And Tim Waterstone should give up trying to buy back his bookshop chain,which he finally left more than lo years ago.He has tried to repurchase it at least five times.By all means treasure experience and learn from your failure,but don't put yourself in the past sadness.Rather,go ahead and seize the day no matter what it is.I have little time for those who say: I wish I had started my own business. My only response is: so do it now.28.According to Paragraph 1,regret can make one feel .A.bitter and self-pityB.upset and hopelessC.disappointed and scaredD.confident and brave29.It can be concluded from Bell's words that .A.one should learn from othersB.shouldn't forget the pastC.one should keep moving aheadD.life often gives us many challenges30.When entrepreneurs face conflict,they will experience .A.arguments and failureB.mistakes and fearC.choices and changesD.encouragement and confusion31.What is the main idea of the text?A.One should feel regret about the past.B.One should give oneself opportunity.C.One should act now and look into the future.D.One should be confident about the past.DHigher income has already been linked to greater longevity and better health.A new study by a famous researcher suggests geographic location plays an key role in life expectancy(预期)for lower earners.That means if you're poor,you're likely to live for longer in a city like San Francisco or New York than in a city like Detroit or Cincinnati.Being rich anywhere broadly means enjoying good health anywhere,but location is a key factor in health for people in lower income groups.Michael Stepner,one of the study's co-authors,said economic decline and decreasing populations in the Rust Belt aren't necessarily to blame.The study found that location matters for low earners.Low-income individuals tend to live more healthily and for longer in cities with college-educated populations,high incomes,more immigrants,and high levels of government expenses,such as New York and San Francisco.The study also found measures of health—insurance coverage and health spending were of lesser importance than social and economic factors in determining health for low-income individuals.Nor did having health insurance seem to be a factor in increasing life expectancy for poorer groups."The key driver of differences in inequality across areas of life expectancy is probably not access to health care,"Mr Stepner said.32.The underlined word "longevity" in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to " ".A.successful experienceB.long lifeC.good relationshipD.young appearance33.What is a key part in life expectancy for lower earners?A.Warm climate.B.Higher income.C.Good education.D.Geographiclocation.34.Where would this text most probably appear?A.Travel guide.B.Health research.C.Sports newspaper.D.Science fiction.35.What is the best title for this text?A.Higher earners like living abroad.B.Being rich means having a happy life everywhere.C.Lower earners are likely to live for longer in big citiesD.The government is trying its best to make people live longer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。
