AI was in a rush as always, but this time it was for an important date I just couldn’t be late for! I found myself at a checkout counter behind an elderly woman seemingly in no hurry as she paid for her groceries. A PhD student with not a lot of money, I had hurried into the store to pick up some flowers. I was in a huge rush, thinking of my upcoming evening. I did not want to be late for this date.We were in Boston, a place not always known for small conversation between strangers. The woman stopped unloading her basket and looked up at me. She smiled. It was a nice smile ---warm and reassuring ---- and I returned her gift by smiling back. “Must be a special lady, whoever it is that will be getting those beautiful flowers,” she said.“Yes, she’s special,” I said, and then to my embarrassment, the words kept coming out.“It’s only our second date, but somehow I am just having the feeling she’s ‘the one’. Jokingly, I added, “The only problem is that I can’t figure out why she’d want to date a guy like me.”“Well, I think she’s very lucky to have a boyfriend who brings her such lovely flowers and who is obviously in love with her,” the woman said.” “My husband used to bring me flowers every week –even when times were tough and we didn’t have much money. Those were incredible(难以置信的) days; he was very romantic and – of course – I miss him since he’s passed away.”I paid for my flowers as she was gathering up her groceries. There was no doubt in my mind as I walked up to her. I touched her on the shoulder and said, “You were right, you know. These flowers are indeed for a very special lady.” I handed her the flowers and thanked her for such a nice conversation.It took her a moment to realize that I was giving her the flowers I had just bought. “You have a wonderful evening,” I said. I left her with a big smile and my heart warmed as I saw her smelling the beautiful flowers.I remember being slightly late for my date that night and telling my girlfriend the above story. A couple of years later, when I finally worked up the courage to ask her to marry me, she told me that this story had helped to seal it for her –that was the night that I won her heart.1.Why was the writer in a hurry that day?A.He was to meet his girlfriend. B.He had to go back to school soon. C.He was delayed by an elderly lady. D.He had to pick up some groceries. 2.What does the underlined phrase “her gift”(Paragraph 2) refer to?A.Her words. B.Her smile. C.Her flowers. D.her politeness.3.Why did the writer give his flowers to the elderly lady?A.She told him a nice story. B.She allowed him to pay first. C.She gave him encouragement. D.She liked flowers very much.4.What can you learn from the story?A.Flowers are important for a date. B.Small talk is helpful.C.Love and kindness are rewarding. D.Elderly people deserve respecting. BAttitudes to AIDS NowMost people say that the USA is making progress in fighting AIDS, but they don't know there's no cure and strongly disagree that "the AIDS epidemic is over," a new survey finds.The findings, released Thursday by the Kaiser Family Foundation, reassure activists who have worried that public concern about AIDS might disappear in light of recent news about advances in treatment and declines in deaths."While people are very optimistic about the advances, they're still realistic about the fact that there is no cure" says Sophia Chang, director of HIV programs at the foundation.The Kaiser survey, like a recent USA TODAY Gallup Poll, does find that the number of people ranking AIDS as the country's top health problem has fallen. In the Kaiser Poll, 38% say it's the top concern, down from 44% in a 1996 poll; in the Gallup Poll, 29% say AIDS is No. 1, down from 41% in 1992 and 67% in 1987.Other findings from Kaiser, which polled more than 1,200 adults in September and October and asked additional questions of another 1,000 adults in November: 52% say the country is making progress against AIDS, up from 32% in 1995.51% say the government spends too little on AIDS. 86% correctly say AIDS drugs can now lengthen lives; an equal number correctly say that the drugs are not cures.67% incorrectly say that AIDS deaths increased or stayed the same in the past year; 24% know deaths fell. Daniel Zingale, director of AIDS Action Council, says, "I'm encouraged that the American people are getting the message that the AIDS epidemic isn't over. I hope the decision-makers in Wa shington are getting the same message … We have seen signs of complacency.5. What do activists worry about?A. Recent news about AIDS is not true.B. Advances in AIDS treatment are too slow.C. Deaths caused by AIDS may not decline.D. People may stop worrying about AIDS6. According to the passage, people's attitude toward the cure of AIDS isA. optimistic.B. hopelessC. pessimistic.D. realistic7. The Gallup Poll shows that the number of people___________.A. who suffer from the worst disease -- AIDS has fallen.B. who think AIDS is the country's top health killer has fallen.C. who worry about AIDS and health problems has fallen.D. who think AIDS threatens the countryside has fallen.8. According to the Kaiser Poll, which of the following is NOT Correct?A. The country is making progress against AIDS.B. More and more people die of AIDS now.C. AIDS drugs can now make people live longer.D. AIDS drugs still cannot save people's lives.第二节短文改错(每小题1分,满分10分)只允许修改10处,多者(从第11处起)不计分。
限时规范练45(选修8Unit 23A)核心素养关键词:培养学生人与社会、考古历史的素养能力意识一、阅读理解AHigh in a valley on the border of Italy and Austria,a young couple went out for a hike.As the hikers made their way across the snow-covered rocks,they found that a human body lay buried in the melting ice.They quickly called the police.Finally,the body was dug out of the ice and sent to a laboratory.In the lab,an archaeologist examined the body and other items that had been found nearby.The study of these items showed that they were over 5,000 years old!The local people were very excited by this news.They called him Otzi because he had been found near the Otztal valley.As news of the iceman spread,people all around the world took an interest.Who was Otzi the Iceman? Where did he come from? How did he live? Why did he die?Scientists have come a long way toward answering these questions.They have learned a great deal from Otzi’s belongings about what life was like 5,000 years ago.They believe that he had a diet made up of grains.By examining his teeth and bones,they believe that he was born in a small village near present-day Bolzano,Italy.Scientists made X-rays of Otzi’s body.They found that Otzi had been in a fight before he died.They believe that he escaped his attackers and fled up the mountain and found a place to rest.He placed all his belongings neatly at his side,and lay down on the ground.He was weak from loss of blood.After some hours had passed,Otzi died.Snow fell,covering his body.For thousands of years,snow fell on the mountain.Otzi became buried deeper and deeper inside the glacier.There he remained until the melting ice exposed him to the hikers.Today,Otzi rests inside an ice case in the South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology in Bolzano,Italy.Otzi the Iceman is the oldest human body ever found.Because of Otzi,we can touch the distant past and imagine the lives of our human ancestors.12【篇章导读】本文是记叙文。

We don’t even have to go to the bank as we pay online and the money transfer(转账)is made by the bank.Going shopping was one of the favorite hobbies for women all over the world, but now they choose to do other things. The application of science to entertainment has made us lazy: TV, DVD, computers, MP3 players. Why do we go out when we have everything at home? Why do we spend time cooking when we have the sandwich-maker which gets us out of every trouble? Why do we bother washing and ironing when we have the dry-cleaning at the corner of the street and it does everything for us? Why do we do the house-cleaning when there are persons who earn a living from this?There is a solution for everything, but to have all these you need money, money earned by hard work. So far, technology hasn’t solved this problem. Comfort and stability are to be contained only with great efforts and many sleepless nights. To get the best products you have to work a lot, because high quality means a great deal of money.When you see how many things you can buy so that you make your existence easier, you don’t care you have to work ten hours a day or you don’t have a free weekend. You make all these efforts because you know you’ll later be rewarded. Therefore, in this aspect we haven’t become lazy; I could say that we are still quite hard-working.28.In the author’s eyes, the price of the advances in technology is ______.A.robbing us of too much moneyB.causing the decline of our healthC.making us lazier than everD.driving us more crazy about entertainment29.The main idea of the second paragraph is ______.A.going shopping was the favorite hobby for women all over the worldB.the application of science to entertainment has made people lazyC.new electric products have made us have more time for entertainmentD.new technologies are changing our lives from shopping to entertainment30.According to the passage, we can have all the following done by machines except ______.A.shopping B.playing music C.cooking D.house-cleaning31.The underlined phrase “this problem” in the 3rd paragra ph refers to ______.A.earning money through hard work B.working with great effortsC.working with sleepless nights D.having to promote qualityDIn Asia, there are special competitions where kites have complex designs and are fitted with instruments that make musical sounds as the wind blows through them. Although all kites have a similar structure (结构), they are widely different in size and shape. Kite-fighting competitions are also held, in which competitions use their kites to attack and bring down their opponents’(对手)kites or cut their strings(线).For more than 15 years, the Big Wind Kite Factory has been giving kite-making and kite flying classes for the children on an island in Hawaii. In its kite-making lessons, students can make kites in as little as 20 minutes! Children as young as four years old can learn how to fly a kite. Jonathan Socher and his wife Daphne started the kite factory in 1980. their kites are made of nylon(尼龙).Their designs are Hawaiian themes created by Daphne. The designs are cut out of the nylon with a hot knife that seals the edges and then fastened directly onto the kite.The kite that is used to give lessons is regular diamond kite with a rainbow pattern. The difference between this kite and the ones they make during the lessons is that it is a two-string controllable kite. Big Wind employees fly the kite and for a few minutes show students how pulling on one line and then on the other controls the direction the kite goes in. Then the controls are given to the students.Jonathan insists that it is not necessary to make a huge impressive kite to have fun making and flying kites. Even the simplest structure can work, and can give hours of fun. Go on, give it a try!32. Which of the following is true according to the text?A. A hot knife is used to iron the nylon.B. Children never fly kites on their own in flying lessons.C. Kite strings must not be cut in kite-fighting competitions.D. Daphne designs kites for the Big Wind Kite Factory.33. What is different about the kite used for flying lessons?A. It has two strings.B. It is simple in designC. It has a rainbow pattern.D.

A kite that impresses others.35.What is mainly described in the text?A . A kite factory B. Kite-flying lessons.C .Special competitions.D .The kite-making Process.七选五Happiness is the only true measure of personal success. Making other people happy is the highest expression of success, 16With that in mind, here are some suggestions that you will immediately increase the amount of happiness in your life:173If there's any big truth about life, it's that it usually lives up to your expectations. Therefore, when you rise from bed, make your first thought: "something wonderful is going to happen today." Guess what? You're probably right.Take time to plan and prioritize(优先处理)The most common source of stress is the thought that you've got too much work to do. Rather than worry about it, pick one thing that will move you closer to your highest goal and purpose in life. Then do that first.Eat high quality food slowly.18 Even so, at least once a day try to eat something really delicious, like a small chunk of fine cheese or an imported chocolate. Focus on it, taste it, and enjoy it.Let go of your results.The big enemy of happiness is worry, which comes from focusing on events that are outside your control. Once you've taken action, there's usually nothing more you can do.19End each day with gratitude.Just before you go to bed, write down at least one wonderful thing that happened. It might be something as small as a making a child laugh or something as huge as a million dollar deal. 20A. Start each day with expectations.B. Give a gift to everyone you meet.C. Thinking about that thing makes your head hurt.D. It’s impossible to make other happy if you are not happy.E. Whatever it is, be grateful for that day because it will never come again.F. Sometimes we can’t avoid eating something quickly and running.G. Focus on the job at hand rather than some fantasy that might happen.语法填空In the early times some people learned 61 (grow) crops and raise animals for food. They were the first farmers.Since 62 (sixteen) century, the word farm has meant agricultural land. But a much older meaning of the word farm is linked 63 economics. The word farm comes from the Latin word, firma, 64 means an unchanging payment. Experts say the earliest 65 (mean) of the English word farm was a yearly payment 66 (make) as a tax or rent.Farmers know that 67 is necessary to make hay while the sun shines. Hay (干草) has to be cut and gathered 68 it is dry. So a wise farmer never delays gathering his hay when the sun is shining. Rain may soon appear.A wise person copies the farmer. He works when 69 (condition) are right. A new mother, for example, 70 (quick) learn to try to sleep when her baby is quite, even in the middle of the day. If the mother delays, she may lose her chance to sleep. So, the mother learns to make hey while the sun shines.高二英语40分钟限时训练(3)4答案完形【解析】36-55 ABADB CBDAD BDCAC CABDC试题分析:文章讲述了父亲带儿子去看NBA篮球赛,儿子给父亲戴上象征朋友的丝织手镯的故事。
限时规范练46(选修8Unit 23B)核心素养关键词:培养学生人与自然、保护动物的思维意识一、阅读理解AWhat do you usually do when a flying insect lands on your arm? Most likely you blow it away.But what if that bug were a ladybug (瓢虫)? Then chances are you would let it stay.What is it about ladybugs that we like?Farmers once thought ladybugs were a good luck sign.A ladybug in the field meant that the crops would be successful and the weather would be good.The farmers may have been exaggerating (夸大) about what a very small bug can do,but in fact ladybugs do help out with the crops.They eat harmful insects.Actually,it is not the adult ladybug that eats the otherinsects.It’s the ladybug larvae (幼虫).Ladybugs lay their eggs on leaves that are covered with aphids or other insects.When the larvae come out of the eggs,they are very hungry and will eatmites,aphids,mealybugs,green flies,and other crop-destroyers.A single ladybug larva can eat over 1,000 aphids in one day.In the 1800s,ladybugs were brought all the way from Australia to California and set free among orange trees that were dying from being eaten by insects.The little red and black “eating machines” completely saved all the trees.Ladybugs go about their daily business without worrying much about anything.Very few birds or insects will eat a ladybug because it gives off something that is dangerous to dybugs also protect themselves by playing dead.They fall off leaves and remain very still until their enemy goes away.So next time you see a ladybug,think about what it may be up to.Maybe it is off to save an orange tree.Maybe its next move will be to fall off a leaf and play dead or stand up to a bird about 100 times its size.Maybe it’s letting you know that the weather will be good tomorrow.Who knows? Ladybugs are special that way.【篇章导读】本文是说明文。

Some ran anyway. Some ran away. But no one cancelled on the advice of the organizers, the Chinese Athletic Association and the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Sports, because those organizations did not call it off. That has made participants call the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF), which has approved the 26-mile, or 42-kilometer race, to set air quality standards in the future to avoid damaging the runners’ health. The association could not be reached by telephone on Sunday.“Does the IAAF have guidelines?” asked Chas Pope, a British engineer who took part in the marathon on Sunday. “If they don’t, they should consider it,” said Mr. Pope, who has lived in Beijing for 11 years and runs several long-distance races each year. “It’s meant to be fun and good for your health,” Mr. Pope said of the marathon. “But in such air, it’s just ridiculous to be running,” he said. He abandoned the course. “Most of my overseas friends pulled out,” he said. “And quite a few of my Chinese friends too, but a lot didn’t. I think they don’t know as much about the health impact.”Images on Twitter and Chinese social media showed Chinese runners wearing a variety of face protections, from light cloth masks to World War I-style gas masks. Still many comp leted the race without masks. “Today’s race should definitely have been called off or rescheduled,” said Zhang Kai, Beijing-based campaigner with Greenpeace East Asia. “What happened today to this sports even is just another reminder to the government that much remains to be done to China’s energy and industrial structure to solve pollution,” said Mr. Zhang. “If the battle against pollution is a marathon, it is now time to catch up on speed.”In the end, the race was won by two Ethiopians: Girmay Birhanu Ge bru won the men’s race in 2 hours, 10 minutes and 42 seconds while Fatuma Sado Dergo won the women’s in 2 hours, 30 minutes and 3 seconds, breaking Chinese women’s advantage of the race for the last 22 years.The favored Chinese woman runner, Gong Lihua, t old China News Net that the smog didn’t affect her too much but it interfered with many people’s ability to sweat, affectingtheir performance.5. The underlined sentences “Some ran anyway. Some ran away.” mean _____________.A. Some runners who dropped out returned to run.B. Some runners gave up after running a short distance.C. Not all runners continued to run.D. Most runners quit the race.6. Why did participants call the IAAF?A. To tell it the Beijing International Marathon was also named Smogathon.B. To appeal to it to set air quality standards in the future.C. To tell it the 42-kilometer race should be cancelled.D. To appeal to it to make some laws to prevent pollution.7.

Zhang Kai thinks the battle against pollution _______.A. will be the most urgent thing in China.B. should be got rid of immediately.C. is connected with China’s unreasonable energy and industrial structure.D. will remind all the Chinese to reduce pollution.二、完形填空(共20小题,每小题1.5分,满分30)After my brother died in an accident,my mother was very sad.I was only 4 years old at the time,but I still understood the 9 in my mom’s attitude toward safety.10 ,everything around us was potentially 11 .I grew up with a lot of 12 and rules that were meant to 13 me.For example,I was not 14 to walk home from school by myself,even though everyone I knew already did.I couldn’t 15 evening parties or go to summer camp, 16 what if something happened to me?As I got older,the list of things to 17 got longer.I became a natural 18 .I was concerned about things like getting cancer,losing my wallet,being caught in car accidents and earthquakes — 19 big and small,real and 20 .The funny part is that you’d never know it by looking at my life,because I’m constantly 21 myself to do the things that frighten or worry me.In fact,I’ve developed a 22 for myself: If it scares me,then I have to do it 23 once.I’ve done lots of things that would have 24 my mom: I’ve ridden a motorcycle,I’ve traveled alone,and I’ve performed stand-up comedy.Courage isn’t a natural attribute(品质)of human beings.I believe that we have to practice being courageous.The more 25 I do things that scare me or that make me 26 ,the more I realize that I can do a lot more than I originally thought I could do.Even though I inherited(经遗传获得)my mother’s cautious 27 ,I’ve also come to believe that fear can be a good thing,if we 28 it.Believing that has made my world a less scary place.9.A.hint B.change C.scene D.lesson 10.A.Slowly B.Logically C.Fortunately D.Suddenly 11.A.important B.inspiring C.convenient D.dangerous 12.A.restrictions B.considerations C.judgments D.comparisons 13.A.limit B.help C.protect D.train 14.A.allowed B.encouraged C.reminded D.advised 15.A.arrange B.attend C.decorate D.support 16.A.but B.though C.or D.because 17.A.hope B.fear C.count D.bear 18.A.worrier B.dreamer C.adultD.thinker19.A.ideas B.affairs C.actions D.disasters 20.A.special B.common C.imaginary D.practical 21.A.expecting B.warning C.forcing D.promising 22.A.rule B.form C.case D.hobby23.A.in all B.at most C.after all D.at least 24.A.threatened B.shocked C.confusedD.entertained25.A.rarely B.quickly C.often D.fairly 26.A.confident B.uncomfortable C.happy D.generous27.A.nature B.duty C.work D.task 28.A.know B.get C.avoid D.face第一节短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)Dear Mandy,I’m not doing well in my lessons at school,especial in maths.
