【西城二模】四､阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题｡(共10分，每小题2分)Mom's Recipe for LifeI have a lot of Mom's recipes in a blue box where all my special ones were put，like the pumpkin pie she made during my growing up years. Even so，the recipe I treasure most is not on any index card，nor did she send it to me in a letter. Instead，she lived this recipe all of her life.My mother grew up in a small coal mining town in southwest Iowa. My grandfather once told me that she knew no stranger;she considered everyone in that community her friend. That attitude continued wherever she lived for the rest of her life.As a teen，I was embarrassed(尴尬的)every time my mother talked to strangers and offered a smile to everyone in the store or on the city bus. Almost all of them responded(回应)with a bright smile of their own. Some spoke，others nodded their heads at this elderly woman who brought a little light into their day.What really sold me on Mom's approach to life was her experience on the senior bus. The weeks I could not be there，，I asked her how it went.“ Ha!”she said，“ I got on that bus and what did I see?Thirteen little old ladies and one old man，and not one word was spoken.”I wondered how long it would be until the silence on that bus would change. On my next visit，Mom mentioned the 13 little old ladies on the bus and something one of them had told her.“ Oh，are you talking with them now?”I asked.“ Of course，”she said. “ One day I climbed up the steps of the bus and before I looked for a seat，I gave them a big smile and I said，‘ Isn't it a wonderful day?I noticed a few shy smiles.”Mom didn't give up. She greeted them all each time she got on the bus and before long，the whole group was laughing and talking to one another. The bus became more than just transportation.When we went to the various stores，I watched as she smiled and chatted with perfect strangers. Some of them looked like the poorest person you'd ever met，but once Mom smiled at them and started a conversation，most responded favorably. My mother didn't embarrass me any longer. I found myself admiring her.She's been gone for ten years but I've carried on her recipe for life. It was me who had done the smiling first and all those people had responded. My mother didn't lecture but taught me by example. She'd given me a recipe for life.34. Where did the writer's mom grow up?35. Did the people talk on the bus on Mom's first trip?36. What did Mom do to make the bus more than transportation?37. How did the writer feel about Mom in the end?38. What is Mom's recipe for life?34. In a small coal mining town in southwest Iowa.35. No，they didn't.36. She greeted them all each time she got on the bus.37. Proud.38. The attitude of considering everyone her friend.【东城二模】四、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。

The Rules of British RoadsBritish roads are some of the safest in the world. A study in 2018 compared more than 30 countries and found that 3.8 out of 100,000 died in traffic accidents in the UK.This number was lower than any other country. So, what did British drivers do to achieve this? What are they doing differently? Here are some pieces of advice for drivers who are planning a trip to the UK.◆People in Britain drive on the left side of the road. In fact, a long time ago people drove on the left in most countries, but now only a few countries have this. Don't forget that this also means you must drive the other way around roundabouts (环岛).◆British people feel that waiting should be fair for everybody. If you are in a line of traffic, then don't try to push past the cars in front of yours. This is called "jumping the line". You must wait for your turn; or people may get angry with you.◆You must stop at the traffic lights when they are red. In many countries, it is OK to go past the red lights if you are turning a corner or if there isn't any other traffic around. In the UK you could have a lot of trouble if you do this.◆If another driver flashes (闪烁) his car's lights at you, he is probably trying to tell you that he will wait for you to go first. British people don't like to use their car horn (喇叭) much because they think people who do so are rude.◆If you get in an accident, don't try to pay the police. The police in the UK never take money, and if you try to offer them some, you could end your holiday visiting British prison（监狱).34. How many pieces of advice are mentioned in the passage?____________________35. Which side do British people drive on?____________________36. If a driver jump the line, how will other drivers feel?____________________37. Why don't British people like to use their car horn much?____________________38. What's the main idea of the last paragraph?____________________【答案】34. Five.35. On the left side of the road.36. They will get angry with the driver/him/her.37. Because they think people who do so are rude.38. If you get in an accident, don't try to pay the police.【解析】本文介绍了英国的交通规则。

Mrs. Wettiner was old and blind. But she tried to do everything for herself. She even used to go for walks alone from her home once a day for exercise and fresh air, and found her way by 13 things with herwhite stick. She learnt where everything was, so she never lost her way.But then one day some men came and cut down some trees at the side of the road which she followed.

How am I going back to my home from here?”All at once she heard a young man’s friendly17 near her. It said, “Excuse me, can I help you?”“How kind of you!” Mrs. Wettiner answered 18 . “Yes, please. I’m lost. Some of the trees which I follow when I go for my evening walk have been removed today, and if I hadn’t been lucky enough to come across you, I don’t know what I’d have done. Can you please help me to get home?”“Certainly,” the man answered. “Where do you live?”Mrs. Wettiner told him, and they began walking. The man took Mrs. Wettiner to her home, and she 19 him in and gave him some coffee and a piece of cake. She told the man how 20 she was that she had met him.“Don’t thank me,” the young man said. “I want to thank you. I was trying to make up my mind into the river. But I’m not going to do it now.”13.

（共26分，每小题2分）AThings You Can Do to Help the EnvironmentThe biggest use of home energy is for coolingand heating. So turn up your air conditioner (空调) and turn down the heat, especially at night.Replace regular light bulbs with fluorescentbulbs (荧光灯), which use less energy.Cars are getting bigger, even 5 meters long.They burn more gas and increase problems withacid rain and air pollution. So try to walk,bicycle, or use public transportation. This cansave more gas and reduce pollution.Each American throws away an average (平均)of 10 kilograms of trash (垃圾) every day.Reduce waste before you buy by thinking itcarefully: Do I need it? Is it something I canonly use once? Buy products that you can useover and over again.Showers use a lot of water. In one week, atypical American family uses as much water asa person drinks in 3 years! Buy a special“low-flow” showerhead or take shortershowers. This can cut water use in half.21. The biggest use of home energy is for_______.A. saving more gasB. reducing pollutionC. turning lights onD. cooling and heating22. On average, how many kilograms of trash does each American throw away every day?A. 1.B. 3.C. 5.D. 10.23. What can we do to help cut water use?A. Think it carefully.B. Use public transportation.C. Take shorter showers.D. Buy a “high-flow” showerhead.BSpeaking From ExperienceRyan Fila’s number one goal is to make the world a better place. He has managed to put his words into action showing those around him that anything is possible if you put your mind to it.As the son of working parents, Fila had to make the most of every opportunity no matter how small.“I remember there was a small basketball hoop near where I lived. It looked like it was from the 1940s and there was no net.” He remembered. But that was Fila’s introduction to sports and played an important role in his life.Fila played high school football in Sedalia, Colo. In order to prove his talent, Fila went to West Hills Community College in Fresno, Calif, where he played football for two years. A serious leg injury (伤害) in his second season seemingly prevented his plans of playing at a four-year college, but there was another college that was taken by Fila’s ability and offered him a chance to play two more years.Fila got a starting position on the Beaver football team as a wide receiver and played in all 22 games of the 2016 and 2017 seasons. It’s Fila’s achievements that set him apart from the traditional student players.There’re so many ways to get educated. There’s education from life experience, school and social interaction.

The researcher invites the children into a simple room. “You can have this sweetright now,” he says. “But if you wait while I go out for a few minutes, you can have twosweets when I get back.” And then he leaves.Some children eat the sweet the moment he’s out the door. Some last a few minutes before they give in. But others make up their mind to wait. They cover their eyes, they put their heads down, they sing to themselves, they try to play games or even fall asleep. When the researcher returns, he gives these children their sweets. And then, science waits for them to grow up.By the time the children reach high school, something unusual has happened. A survey of the children’s parents and teachers found that those who as four-year-olds were strong-minded enough to hold out for the second sweet generally grew up to be more popular, adventurous, confident and dependable teenagers. The children who gave in to temptation(诱惑) early on were more likely to be lonely and easily upset.When we think of excellence, we see Einstein—deep-eyed, woolly-haired, a thinking machine. High achievers, we imagine, were born for greatness. But then you have to wonder why, over time, natural talent seems to flower in some, yet disappear in others. This is where the sweets come in. The ability to put off the pleasure of meeting needs is a master skill, a victory of the reasoning brain over the impulsive (冲动的) one. It is a sign, in short, of emotional intelligence. And it doesn’t show up on an IQ test.In his book Emotional Intelligence, Daniel Goleman argues that brain power as measured by IQ actually matters less than qualities of mind like understanding one’s own feelings, empathy（同情）—being sensitive to other people’s feeling—and the ability to manage your own emotions. EQ is not the opposite of IQ. What researchers are trying to understand is how they work to improve each other. Among the ingredients (因素) for success, researchers now generally agree that IQ counts for about 20%: the rest depends on everything from luck, to social class… and emotional intelligence. In the business world, according to personal executives (主管), IQ gets you a job, but EQ gets you a higher position.27.

But, it often makes a difference who the other person is. “I’m certain that when men judge women, appearance plays a greater role than when women judge other women,” said Lydia Maier, chairman of an association of color and style advisor.With the help of a mirror, a good female friend and a good male friend, on e’s own appearance can be completely valued. Some important questions are: What effect do I have on you? Why is that so? Do I want to have that effect or something completely different?The first place to look is in the closet (衣橱). “Good clothes are not contingent upon how much was spent on them. What’s important is that the clothes are clean, fit well, and match the personality of the person wearing them,”said Maier. Depending on the occasion, choose a timeless, careful, or stylish set of clothes for an introduction.“Generally speaking, the importance of fashion has increased in recent years,”said Professor Gerhard Amendt, director of an institute at the University of Bremen. He sees a danger, however, that the personality of a person could be lost behind a fashionable appearance.Well-being and inner balance are shown in body language such as good behaviors, open expressions, smooth movements, and help to cause a positive appearance. People who are comfortable with themselves appear balanced to others. “You can do a lot for your own well-being,” said Stief. “It begins with clearing away major dissatisfactory things in your life.” Relaxation exercises, yoga or weight training help the progress of balance. Exercising also helps people look healthy and energetic.Expressive body language and gestures, appealing facial expressions, and communication skills can be learned by attending management meetings or adult education courses. No one becomes a perfect talk master through these means, but they help people recognize how others interpret their outward behaviors. “A considerable part in appearance is self-confidence,” said Amendt. “Only those people who are sure of themselves, who know their own strengths, and feel certain of them come across as self-confident and convincing (使人信服的).”30.
