People settle in these places because they are easy to get to and naturally suited to communications and trade. New York City, for example, is near a large harbor at the mouth of the Hudson River. Over 300 years its population grew gradually from 800 people to 8million.But not all cities develop slowly over a long period of time. Boom towns grow from nothing almost overnight. In 1896, Dawson, Canada, was unmapped wilderness(荒野). But gold was discovered there in 1897,and two years later, it was one of the largest cities in the West, with a population of 30,000.Dawson did not have any of the natural conveniences of cities like London or Paris. People went there for gold. They travelled over snow-covered mountains and sailedhundreds of miles up icy rivers. The path to Dawson was covered with thirty feet of wet snow that could fall without warming. An avalanche(雪崩) once closed the path, killing 63 people. For many who made it to Dawson, however, the rewards were worth the difficult trip. Of the first20,000 people who dug for gold, 4,000 got rich. About100 of these stayed rich men for the rest of their lives.But no matter how rich they were, Dawson was never comfortable. Necessities like food and wood were very expensive. But soon, the gold that Dawson depended on had all been found. The city was crowded with disappointed people with no interest in settling down, and when they heard there were new gold discoveries in Alaska, they left Dawson City as quickly as they had come. Today, people still come and go — to see where the Canadian gold rush happened. Tourism is now the chief industry of Dawson City—its present population is 762.21. What attracted the early settlers to New York City?A. Its business culture.B. Its small population.C. Its geographical position.D. Its favorable climate.22. What do we know about those who first dug for gold in Dawson?A. Two-thirds of them stayed there.B. One out of five people got rich.C. Almost everyone gave up.D. Half of them died.23. What was the main reason for many people to leave Dawson?A. They found the city too crowded.B. They wanted to try their luck elsewhere.C. They were unable to stand the winter.D. They were short of food.24. What is the text mainly about?A. The rise and fall of a city.B. The gold rush in Canada.C. Journeys into the wilderness.D. Tourism in Dawson.三语篇填空（共10小题；每小题2分，满分20分）阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Charlotte Stone.D. James Pickering.2. At which place can people of different ages enjoy a good laugh?A. The Cyclops TheatreB. KaleidoscopeC. Victoria StageD. Pizza WorldB.Have you ever been given something you don’t like or doesn’t fit, but you don’t want to hurt the feelings of the person who thinks about you? You’re not alone. Everyone has received an unwanted gift at least once in his or her life. That doesn’t mean the item is bad or useless. It simply means that it doesn’t work for you.If you find yours elf with something nice but that doesn’t fit into your lifestyle, consider regifting it. Before you do that, make sure you understand the manners of this practice that is more and more common as people find it difficult to make ends meet to a great extent.There are specific things you should do to an item. Failure to do any of them may create an awkward situation. You never have to lie about what you are doing, but you don’t want to be in the position of having to explain anything. For example, remove the original wrapping paper and rewrap it in your own; make sure the box is in good condition so the item doesn’t appear used; check the item and make sure there are no cards or names on the packaging; inspect the item and make sure it is in excellent condition.When you get ready for regifting, consider having a white elephant gift exchange for your next celebration. This removes all the embarrassment of being caught regifting because that’s the whole purpose of the event. In order to prevent hurting feelings, provide everyone with a guest list and ask them not to bring anything given by the people on that list.4. Why does the author begin the passage with a question?A. To share a hot phenomenon.B. To introduce the following part.C. To ask for readers’ answers.D. To point out a common opinion.5. What most contributes to the growing regifting?A. People’s lack of money.B. People’s dislike of the gifts.C. People’s reduced desire for gifts.D. People’s understanding of its manners.6. What’s mainly talked about in Paragraph 3?A. What to do before regifting.B. How to make use of unwanted gifts.C. What kind of gifts to be regifted.D. Why regifting can cause embarrassment.7. What does the underlined phrase in the last paragraph mean?A. Suitable but valueless.B. Expensive and useful.C. Packaged and invaluable.D. Nice but unsuitable.CThe idea that you can use humor, laughter, and play to make you healthier probably seems too simple to be true. However, it is really true and simple. The sense of humor, laughter and play has an important part in keeping you healthy.Use "the best medicine" to treat the blues with a sense of humor, which is closely tied to laughter. Laughter is infectious. Have you ever heard a big laugh of a young child and been able to keep yourself from smiling? When laughter is shared between people, it makes them closer to each other and increases their happiness. Smiling is the beginning of laughter and a smile is also just as infectious as laughter is. You can experience something by smiling at everyone around you, and you will feel happier just by sharing a smile, even with a stranger.Play is an important part of making sure that we stay healthy. We are often encouraged to make sure our children play, and are told of the benefits of being out playing. However, what we often forget is that it is just as important for old people to make play be part of their life as it’s for children. Physical play is important for the old and it certainly helps prevent illness. While the studies are still in the early stages, the studies that have been done have shown that physical play certainly plays a part in preventing cognitive(认知的) falling.Anyway, adding humor, laughter, and play to our life will influence us mentally, physically and socially and bring us many advantages. So we should make full use of humor, laughter and play to make our life more active, interesting andhappier.8.What does the underlined word "infectious" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A.Playing an important role.B.Keeping people in high spirits.C.Quickly influencing other people.D.Preventing illness from spreading.9.What can laughter increase according to the author?A.Cognitive ability.B.Good relationships.C.A sense of humor.D.Happiness and trust.10.What does the author think the old should do?A.They should have a good rest.B.They should play like children.C.They should prevent cognitive falling.D.They should take part in physical play.11.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A.Humor, Laughter and Play for HealthB.Always Keep Our Body HealthyC.Have an Active and Happy LifeD.Let Our Body and Mind RelaxDTwo friends have an argument that breaks up their friendship forever, even though neither one can remember how the whole thing got started. Such sad events happen over and over in high schools across the country. In fact, according to an official report on youth violence, "In our country today, the greatest threat to the lives of children and adolescents is not disease or starvation, but the terrible reality of violence". Given that this is the ease, why aren't students taught to manage conflict the way they are taught to solve math problems, drive cars, or stay physically fit?First of all, students need to realize that conflict is unavoidable. A report on violence among middle school and high school students indicates that most violent incidents between students begin with a relatively less important insult (侮辱). For example, a fight could start over the fact that one student eats a peanut butter sandwich each lunchtime. Laughter over the sandwich can lead to insults, which in turn can lead to violence. The problem isn't in the sandwich, but in the way students deal with the conflict.Once students recognize that conflict is unavoidable, they can practice the golden rule of conflict resolution (解决) : stay calm. Once the student feels calmer, he or she should choose words that will calm the other person down. Rude words, name-calling, and accusations only add fuel to the emotional fire. On the other hand, soft words spoken at a normal sound level can put out the fire before it explodes out of control.After both sides have calmed down, they can use another key strategy (策略) for conflict resolution : listening. Listening allows the two sides to understand each other. One person should describe his or her side, and the other person should listen without interrupting. Afterward, the listener can ask non-threatening questions to clarify the speaker's position. Then the two people should change roles.Finally, students need to consider what they are hearing. Tiffs doesn't mean trying to figure out what's wrong with the other person. It means understanding what the real problem is and what both sides are trying to achieve. For example, a shouting match over a peanut butter sandwich might happen because one person thinks the other person is unwilling to try new things. Students need to ask themselves questions such as these: How did this start? What do I really want? What am I afraid of? As the issue becomes clearer, the conflict often simply becomes smaller. Even if it doesn't, careful thought helps both sides figure out a mutual(共同的) solution. There will always be conflict in schools, but that doesn't mean there needs to be violence. After students in Atlanta started a conflict resolution program, according to Educators for Social Responsibility, "64 percent of the teachers reported less physical violence in the classroom; 75 percent of the teachers reported an increase in student co-operation; and 92 percent of the students felt better about themselves'. Learning to resolve conflicts can help students deal with friends, teachers, parents, bosses, and coworkers. In that way, conflict resolution is a basic life skill that should be taught in schools across the country.12. From Paragraph 2 we can learn thatA. violence is more likely to occur at lunchtimeB. a small conflict can lead to violenceC. students tend to lose their temper easilyD. the eating habit of a student is often the cause of a fight13. Why do students need to ask themselves the questions stated in Paragraph 5?A. To find out who is to blame.B. To get ready to try new things.C. To make clear what the real issue is.D. To figure out how to stop the shouting match.14. After the conflict resolution program was started in Atlanta, it was found thatA. there was a decrease in classroom violenceB. there was less student cooperation in the classroomC. more teachers felt better about themselves in schoolsD. the teacher-student relationship greatly improved15. This article is mainly about______A. the lives of school childrenB. the cause of arguments in schoolsC. how to analyze youth violenceD. how to deal with school conflicts第二节七选五（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。

内蒙古巴彦淖尔市临河区第三中学2020届高三英语10月月考试题（一）一. 阅读理解（每小题5分，共40分）AOn average ,Americans spend about 10 hours a day in front of a computer or other electronic devices and less than 30 minutes a day outdoors. That is a claim made by David Strayer, a professor of psychology at the University of Utah. In his 2017 TED Talk , Strayer explained that all this time spent with technology is making our brains tired.Using an electronic device to answer emails, listen to the news and look at Facebook puts a lot of pressure on the front of the brain, which, Strayer explains , is important for critical (有判断力的）thinking , problem-solving anddecision-making.So, it is important to give the brain a rest. And being in nature , Strayer claims , helps get a tired brain away from too much technology. More than 15,000 campers from around the world attended an international camping festival in September. That is when friends and family take time off and escape to nature for several days. They take walks, climb, explore , swim, sleep, eat and play. Camping may be just what a tired brain needs.Take Carl for example .He lives in West Virginia and enjoys camping . He says that staying outdoors makes him feel at ease. It also prepares him for the work he must do. Kate Somers is another example who also lives in West Virginia. She says she enjoys camping with her husband and two children . She calls it a “regenerative” experience.At the University of Utah , David Strayer has studied both short-term and long-term exposure to nature. He found that spending short amounts of time in nature without technology does calm the brain and helps it to remember better. However ,he found , it is the long-term contact with nature that does the most good. He and his research team found that spending three days in nature without any technology is enough time for the brain to fully relax and reset itself.1．What is David Strayer’s opinion ?A．Americans dislike outdoor activitiesB．Electronic equipment should be quittedC．New technologies are a double-edged swordD．Electronic equipment brings great convenience2．Why does Strayer insist we go outdoors?A．To try another lifestyle B．To refresh our brainC．To make better decisions. D．To play with our family and friends 3．What does the underlined word “regenerative” mean?A．Reborn B．Memorable C．Remarkable D．Tiring4．Which is the proper title for the passage?A．Electronic Equipment Harms the Brain B．Good Rest Develops Good Memory C．Tips on Using New Technologies D．Being in Nature Is Good for the BrainBA study showed that the experiences children have in their first few years are important . These experiences affect the development of the brain. When children receive more attention, they often have higher IQs. Babies receive information when they see, hear and feel things, which makes connections between different parts of the brain. There are a hundred trillion(万亿）connections in the brain of athree-year-old child.Researcher Judit Gervain tested how good newborns are at distinguishing different sound patterns. Her researchers produced images of the brains of babies as they heard different sound patterns. For example, one order was mu-ba-ba. This is the pattern"A-B-B". Another order was mu-ba-ge. This is the pattern “A-B-C”. The images showed that the part of the brain responsible for speech was more active during the" A-B-B"pattern. This shows that babies can tell the difference between different patterns. They also were sensitive to where it occurred in the order.Gervain is excited by these findings because the order of sounds is the building block of words and grammar."Position is key to language," she says. "If something is at the beginning or at the end, it makes a big difference:'John caught the bear.' is very different from 'The bear caught John.'”Researchers led by scientist Patricia Kuhl have found that language delivered by televisions, audio books,the Internet, or smartphones－no matter how educational －doesn’t appear to be enough for children’s brain development. They carried out a study of nine-month-old American babies. They expected the first group who’d watched videos in Chinese to show the same kind of learning as the second group who were brought face-to-face with the same sounds. Instead they found a huge difference. The babies in the second group were able to distinguish between similar Chinese sounds as well as native listeners. But the other babies －regardless of whether they had watched the video or listened to the audio－learned nothing.5．What makes connections in a baby’s brain?A．Having a higher IQ. B．Experiencing new informationC．The baby’ early age D．The connection with other babies6．What did Judit Gervain and her team find in the experiment?A．Babies identify different sound patterns. B．Word order is relevant to meaning.C．Babies can well understand different words.D．A certain brain region processes language.7．What does the underlined sentence mean in Paragraph 3?A．Grammar is important in learning languages.B．Different orders have different meanings.C．Different languages have different grammar.D．Words have different sounds.8．What is the main conclusion from the study led by Patricia Kuhl?A．Babies shouldn’t watch a lot of television.B．Listening to different languages develops babies’ brainC．Foreign languages help babies’ brain developD．Social communication improves babies’ brain development.七选五（共5小题；每小题5分，满分25分）After a long day at work, coming home is a breath of fresh air.

内蒙古2019届高三上学期第一次月考英语试卷【含答案及解析】姓名___________ 班级____________ 分数__________一、阅读理解1. Dear Alfred,I want to tell you how important your help is to my life.Growing up, I had people telling me I was too slow, though, with an IQ of 150 at 17, I’m anything but stupid. The fact was that I was found to haveADIID( 注意力缺陷多动障碍 ). Anxious all the time, I was unable to keep focused for more than an hour at a time.However, when something did interest me, I could become absorbed. In high school, I became curious about the computer, and built my first website. Moreover, I completed the senior course of Computer Basics, plus five relevant pre-college courses.While I was exploring my curiosity, my disease got worse. I wanted to go to college after high school, but couldn’t . So, I was killing my time at home until June 2012 when I discovered the online computer courses of your training center.Since then, I have taken courses like Data Science and Advanced Mathematics. Currently, I’m learning your Probability course. I have hundreds of printer paper, covered in self-written notes from your video. This has given me a purpose.Last year, I spent all my time looking for a job where, without dealing with the public , I could work alone, but still have a team to talk to. Luckily, I discovered the job—Data Analyst—this month and have been going full steam ahead. I want to prove that I can teach myself a respectful profession, without going to college, and be just as good as, if not better than, my competitors.Thank you. You’ve given me hope that I can follow my heart. For the first time, I feel good about myself because I’m doing something, not becausesomeone told me I was doing good. I feel whole.This is why you’re saving my life.Yours,Tanis1.why did’t Tanis go to college after high school?A. She had learned enough about computer scienceB. She had more difficulty keeping foucesedC. She preferred taking online coursesD. She was too slow to learn2.AS for the working environment,Tains prefers____.A. working by herselfB. dealing with the publicC. competing against othersD. staying with ADHD students3.Tanis wrote this letter in order to_____.A. explain why she was interested in the computerB. share the ideas she had for her professionC. show how grateful she was to the centerD. describe the courses she had taken so far2. “Did you hear what happened to Adam Last Friday?”Lindsey whispers to To ri. With her eyes shining, Tori brags, “You bet I did, Sean told me two days ago. ”Who are Lindsey and Tori talking about? It just happened to be yours truly, Adam Freedmam. I can tell you that what they are saying is (a) not nice and (b) not even true. Still, Lindsey and Tori aren’t very different from most students here at Linton High School, including me. Many of our conversationsare gossip(闲话). I have noticed three effects of gossip: it can hurt people,it can give gossipers a strange kind of satisfaction, and it can cause social pressures in a group.An important negative effect of gossip is that it can hurt the person being talked about. Usually, gossip spreads information about a topic- breakups, trouble at home, even dropping out-that a person would rather keep secret. The more embarrassing or shameful the secret is, the juicier the gossip it makes. Probably the worst type of gossip is the absolute lie. People often think of gossipers as harmless, but cruel lies can cause pain.If we know that gossip can be harmful, then why do so many of us do it? That answer lies in another effect of gossip: the satisfaction it gives us. Sharing the latest rumor(传言)can make a person feel important because he or she knowssomething that others don’t. Similarly, hearing the latest rumor can make a person feel like part of the “in group.”In other words, gossip is satisfying because it gives people a sense of belonging or even superiority(优越感).Gossip also can have a third effect: it strengthens unwritten, unspoken rules about how people should act. Professor David Wilson explains that gossip is important in policing behaviors in a group. Translated into high school terms, this means that if everybody you hang around with is laughing at what John wore or what Jane said, then you can bet that wearing or saying something similar will get you the same kind of negative attention. The do’s anddon’ts conveyed through gossip will never show up in any student handbook.The effects of gossip vary depending on the situation. The next time you feel the urge to spread the latest news, think about why you want to gossip and what effects your “juicy story” might have.1. The author uses a conversation at the beginning of the passage to ______.A. introduce a topicB. present an argumentC. describe the charactersD. clarify his writing purpose2. In the author’s opinion, many people like to gossip because it ______.A. gives them a feeling of pleasureB. help them to make more friendsC. makes them better at telling storiesD. enables them to meet important people3. Professor David Wilson think that gossip can ______.A. provide students with written rulesB. help people watch their own behaviorsC. force school to improve student handbooksD. attr act the police’s attention to group behaviors4. What advice does the author give in the passage?A. Never become a gossiperB. Stay away from gossipersC. Don’t let gossip turn into liesD. Think twice before you gossip.3. For many years, I was convinced that my suffering was due to my size. I believed that when the weight disappeared, it would take old wounds, hurts and rejections with it.Many weight-conscious people also mistakenly believe that changing our bodies will fix everything . Perhaps our mistake is believing that being thin equals being loved, being special, and being cherished. We fantasize (幻想) about what it will be like when we reach the long-awaited goal .We work very hard to realize this dream. Then, at last, we find ourselves there.But we often gain back what we have lost. Even so, we continue to believethat next time it will be different. Next time, we will keep it off. Next time, being thin will finally fulfill its promise of everlasting happiness, self-worth, and, of course, love.It took me a long time to realize that there was something more for me tolearn about beauty. Beauty standards vary with culture. In Samoa a woman isnot considered attractive unless she weighs more than 200 pounds. More importantly, i f it’s happiness that we want, why not put our energy there rather than on the size of our body? Why not look inside? Many of us strive hard to change our body, but in vain.

Many people use a long weekend for a getaway , a short trip to leave thestress of their everyday lives behind and explore, learn, or relax.Hotel RomanceMany hotels and resorts feature something special to start the getaway, such as champagnes (香槟酒), flowers, or a fruit basket in the room on arrival. Getaway packages usually include a room with something special, a heart shaped bed, for example. Additional benefits could be room service meals or other private dining, plus tickets or discounts for local attractions.Visit a SpaSpa getaways can take place at a location that focuses only on spa services or at a hotel that offers a spa as one of its features. Some spas emphasize treatments fit for their geographic area or a local attraction. A spa in a grape growing region might provide grape juice masks, or a hotel near a hot spring could offer mineral baths. Most spas offer a range of massage (按摩), health and beauty treatments, so a spa getaway can be relaxing with other benefits.Learn a SkillA long weekend may not be enough time to become an expert at something new, but it provides a way for people to begin their explorations.

A volunteer getaway is a way to relieve stress and help others at the stone time.Stay in a National ParkFor those who want to relax in a rural environment, a national park fits the bill.

Banks, companies, andgovernment agencies use secret codes in doing business, especially when information is sent by computer.People have used secret codes for thousands of years. 1. Code breaking never lags （落后） far behind code making. Thescience of creating and reading coded messages is called cryptography.Thereare three main types of cryptography. 2. For example, the first letters of“My elephant eats too many eels” spell out the hidden message “Meet me.”3. You might represent each letter with a number, for example. Let’s numberthe letters of the alphabet, in order, from 1 to 26. If we substitute a numberfor each letter, th e message “Meet me” would read “135520135.”A code uses symbols to replace words, phrases, or sentences. To read the message of a real code, you must have a code book. 4. For example, “bridge” might stand for “meet” and “out” might stand for “me.” The message “Bridge out” would actually mean “Meet me.” 5. However, it is also hard to keep a code booksecret for long. So codes must be changed frequently.p6. ly:Calibri; font-size:10.5pt">A. It is very hard to break a code without the code book. B. In any language, some letters are used more than others. C. Only people who know the keyword can read the message. D. As long as there havebeen codes, people have tried to break them. E. You can hide a message byhaving the first letters of each word spell it out. F. With a code book, you might write down words that would stand for other words. G. Another way tohide a message is to use symbols to stand for specific letters of the alphabet.三、完形填空7.

Because that means you will stay for a long time, which will make the host feel nervous. So you should wait until the host asks, “May I take your coat?’’If you are lucky enough to be invited to a formal dinner party in Paris, you should mind your manners. Even your “finest manners” may not be correct by French custom.For example, it is not polite to arrive with a gift of flowers in hand, because the hostess will deal with finding a vase when she is too busy to do that.Though the French love wine, you must never bring a bottle of wine to a dinner party. Why? It’s as if you feared your hosts would not have enough wine on hand, and that’s an insult (侮辱). You may, however, offered a box of chocolate which the hostess will pass after dinner with coffee.Another thing you should remember: it is not polite to use the bathroom in a private house.

内蒙古巴彦淖尔市临河区第三中学2020学年高三英语上学期第一次月考试题试卷分值：120分时间：90分钟一、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，共30.0分）AAre you looking for some new and exciting places to take your kids (孩子) to? Try some of these places·Visit art museums. They offer a variety of activities to excite your kid s' interest. Many offer workshops for making land-made pieces, traveling exhibits, book signings by children's favorite writer, and even musical performances and other arts.·Head to a natural history museum. This is where kids can discover the past from dinosaur(恐龙) models to rock collections and pictures of stars in the sky. Also, ask what kind of workshops and educational programs are prepared for kids and any special events that are coming up.·Go to a Youtheater. Look for one in your area offering play s for child and family visitors. Pre-show play shops are conducted by area artists and educators where kids can discover the secret about performing arts. Puppet(木偶)making and stage make-up are just a couple of the special offerings you might find.·Try hands-on science. Visit one of the many hands-on science museums around the country. These science play-lands are great fun for kids and grown-ups alike. They'll keep your child mentally and physically active the whole day through while pushing buttons, experimenting, and building. Wheneveryone is tired, enjoy a fun family science show, commonly found in these museums.1. If a child is interested in the universe, he probably will visitA. a YoutheaterB. an art museumC. a natural history museumD. a hands-on science museum2. What does "hands-on science" mean in the last paragraph?A. Science games designed by kids.B. Learning science by doing things.C. A show of kids' science work.D. Reading science books.3. Where does this text probably come from?A. A science textbook.B. A tourist map.C. A museum guide.D. A news report.BFacial expressions carry meaning that is determined by situations and relationships. For example, in American culture the smile is in general an expression of pleasure. Yet it also has other uses. A woman’s smile at a police officer does not carry the same meaning as the smile she gives to a young child. A smile may show love or politeness. It can also hide true feelings. It often causes confusion (困惑) across cultures. For example, many people in Russia consider smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even improper. Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places (although this is less common in big cities). Some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places; some Americans believe that Russians don’t smile enough. In Southeast Asian culture, a smile is frequently used to cover painful feelings. Vietnamese people may tell a sad story but end the story with a smile.Our faces show emotions, but we should not attempt to “read” people from another culture as we would “read” someone from our own culture. Thefact that members of one culture do not express their emotions as openly as do members of another does not mean that they do not experience emotions. Rather, there are cultural differences in the amount of facial expressiveness permitted. For example, in public and in formal situations many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do. When with friends, Japanese and Americans seem to show their emotions similarly.It is difficult to generalize about Americans and facial expressiveness because of personal and cultural differences in the United States. People from certain cultural backgrounds in the United States seem to be more facially expressive than others. The key is to try not to judge people whose ways of showing emotion are different. If we judge according to our own cultural habits, we may make the mistake of “reading” the other person incorrectly.4. What does the smile usually mean in the U.S.?A. Joy.B. Politeness.C. Love.D. Thankfulness.5. The author mentions the smile of the Vietnamese to prove that smile can___ .A. show friendliness to strangersB. be used to hide true feelingsC. be used in the wrong placesD. show personal habits6. What should we do before attempting to “read” people?A. Learn about their relations with others.B. Understand their culturalbackgrounds.C. Find out about their past experience.D. Figure out what they willdo next.7. What would be the best title for the test?A. Cultural DifferencesB. Smiles and RelationshipC. Habits and EmotionsD.Facial ExpressivenessCLast night I was driving from Harrisburg to Lewisburg, a distance of about eighty miles. It was late. Several times I got stuck behind a slow-moving truck on a narrow road with a solid white line on my left, and I became increasingly impatient.At one point along an open road, I came to a crossing with a traffic light.I was alone on the road by now, but as I drove near the light, it turned red and I made a stop. I looked left, right and behind me. Nothing. Not a car, no suggestion of car lamps, but there I sat, waiting for the light to change, the only human being for at least a mile in any direction.I started wondering why 1 refused to run the light I was not afraid of being caught, because there was clearly no policeman around, and there certainly would have been no danger in going through it.Much later that night, the question of why I'd stopped for that light came back to me. I think I stopped because it's part of a contract(契约)we all have with each other. It's not only the law, but it is an agreement we have, and we trust each other to honor it: we don't go through red lights. Trust is our first inclination(倾向).Doubting others does not seem to be natural to us. The whole construction of our society depends on mutual(相互)trust, not distrust .We do what we say we'll do; we show up when we say we'll show up; and we pay when we say we'll pay. We trust each other in these matters, and we're angry or disappointed with the person or organization that breaks the trust we have in them.I was so proud of myself for stopping for the red light that night.8. Why did the author get impatient while driving?A. He was lonely on the road.B. He was slowed down by a truck.C. He got tired of driving too long.D. He came across too many trafficlights.9. What was the author's immediate action when the traffic light turned red?A. Stopping still.B. Driving through it.C. Looking around for other cars.D. Checking out for traffic police.10.
