Each word can only beGetting ahead in the 21st centuryHave you ever wondered whether you have the skill that you need to succeed in the 21st century? We have the answers.1. Keep learningTen years ago, nobody was designing apps for mobile phones or using social media to reach new customers. Now these are popular jobs for ___31___. As the world of work changes, we need to change, too. In the past, you just had to ask your uncle to get you a job in his company. Thesedays we need to ___32___ our strengths and constantly improve our skills. Business guru Heinz Landau suggests spending ten percent of your time on ___33___ improvement; for example, learning a language or a new computer programme. As somebody once said,‘If you work hard on your job, you can make a living. But if you work hard on yourself, you can make a fortune.’2. Learn how to manage your timeWhatever you do these days, you probably have more work and less time than you want. To meet these ___34___, everyone needs strategies to be effective and productive.

Reading ComprehensionSection ADirections:For each blank in the following passages there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C, and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.Where do new words come from? Few are purely ___41___, in the sense of being coined from a string of sounds chosen more or less at random. Most tend to be existing words given new meaning. ___42___, a word changes its parts of speech. And in some of the most creative instances, people chop words and ___43___ them to make new ones.“New Danish Words, With Origin”a book by Jorgen Norby Jensen, shows how ___44___ new Danish forms are created by Danes from Danish roots for specifically Danish circumstances. Instead, the great majority come, one way or another, from English.The ___45___ examples are those that are borrowed wholesale. Mr Jensen offers“foodie”,“selfie”,“clickbait”,“blog”and“Brexit”. Words of more exotic(国外的)origin include“emoji”and“barista”,which have their origins in Japanese and Italian. But these too, Mr Jensen writes, come through English, not ___46___ from those languages.In another category are“___47___”words and expressions that are unknown to English-speakers. Danes have long said that someone who is fresh and ready to go is“fit for fight”. Such faux-anglicisms are common in other languages too: the German Handy(mobile phone)or Kicker(table football),or the French tennisman and tenniswoman. Although linguistic(语言学的)experts in these countries ___48___ these words—it is bad enough to have to borrow English words, but even worse to counterfeit(造假)them, they cannot seem to stop them. But the book of new Danish words shows an even deeper kind of ___49___. Even where words appear Danish, they are often simply part-for-part translations of English words: vejvrede is“road rage”,undskyld mit franske is“pardon my French”,and svingvaelger,“swing voter”. This shows that globalisation is not only in the surface traffic of words, but in the deeper exchange of ___50___.This is not to say that other languages do not ___51___ coin their own words anymore. InDannish, svenskerhar and bundeslighar,“Swede hair”or“Bundesliga hair”,both refer to the cut known in English as a mullet. And curling-foraeldre,“curling parents”,is an interesting ___52___ on“helicopter parents”: rather than hovering over their children, they sweep all obstacles out of their way.So English borrowing is not entirely ___53___ native creativity, even if the heavy thumbprint of English on virtually every language in the globalized world is increasingly clear. This is not because English is particularly wonderful or flexible in itself; it is more to do with the influence of innovations from English speaking countries.It may be that the spread of concepts from English out, rather than the other way round, is in fact to the discredit of the English-speaking world. Words spread from English because people learn English; cultural secrets are more likely to be ___54___ in other cultures where outsiders cannot find them. Perhaps English speakers are the real ___55___ in this exchange.41. A. invented B. chosen C. pronounced D. known42. A. Without any reason B. On the wholeC. To some degreeD. In other cases43. A. re-read B. repeated C. re-discover D. recombine44. A. often B. rarely C. slowly D. fast45. A. obvious B. strange C. abstract D. conflicting46. A. reasonably B. surprisingly C. directly D. necessarily47. A. German B. Danish C. English D. French48. A. criticize B. accept C. use D. remove49. A. knowledge B. influence C. concern D. prejudice50. A. standards B. promises C. statements D. concepts51. A. apparently B. creatively C. purposefully D. patiently52. A. remark B. twist C. emphasis D. attack53. A. replacing B. promoting C. demanding D. rewarding54. A. introduced B. revealed C. buried D. protected55. A. importers B. exporters C. gainers D. losersSection BDirections:Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)If you watch wolves, it’s hard to escape t he conclusion that perhaps no two species are more alike behaviorally than wolves and humans. We can easily recognize the social structures in wolf packs. No wonder human males often face pressure to measure up as“alpha”males—to“wolf up”,as it were. The te rm alpha male implies a man who at every moment demonstrates that he’s in control in the home and who can become aggressive.This alpha male stereotype(固定印象)comes from a misunderstanding of the real thing. “The main characteristic of an alpha male wolf,” the wolf researcher Rick McIntyre told me as we were watching gray wolves in Yellowstone National Park, “is a quiet confidence, quietself-assurance.”The point is, alpha males are not aggressive. There is an evolutionary logic to it.“Imagine two wolf packs, or two human tribes,” McIntyre said. “Which is more likely to survive and reproduce: the one whose members are more cooperative, more sharing, less violent with one another, or the group whose members are beating each other up and competing with one another?”McIntyre has spent 20 years watching and studying wolves in Yellowstone for the National Park Service. He rises early, uses radio telemetry to locate a pack through a radio-collared pack member, then heads out with his spotting scope to observe the animals, keeping careful notes of their activities. In all that time, he has rarely seen an alpha male act aggressively toward the pack’s other members.This does not mean that alpha males are not tough when they need to be. One famous wolf in Yellowstone whose radio collar number, 21, became his name, was considered a “super wolf” by the people who closely observed the arc of his life. He was fierce in defense of family and apparently never lost a fight with a rival pack. Yet within his own pack, one of his favorite things was to wrestle with little wolves and to pretend to lose.One year, a pup was a bit sickly. The other pups seemed to be afraid of him and wouldn’t play with him. Once, after delivering food for the small pups, 21 stood looking around for something. Soon he started wagging his tail. He’d been looking for the sickly little pup, and he went over just to hang out with him for a while.Of all McIntyre’s stories about the super wolf, that’s his favorite. Strength impresses us. But kindness is what we remember best.56. What do people usually think of“alpha males”?A. They are the group of wolves that resemble humans most.B. They are dominant not only at home but also away from home.C. They are fond of fighting against pressure from opponents.D. They are a necessary part of humans’social structures.57. McIntyre is quoted in paragraph 5 in order to ______.A. show alpha male wolves’ characteristic helps their packs surviveB. prove cooperative wolves are more likely to be alpha male wolvesC. stress that being willing to share is what wolves have in commonD. illustrate than an alpha male wolf is born to be touch and aggressive58. After a wolf pack gets a prey(猎物),what will an alpha male wolf most likely do?A. Compete with other pack membersB. Keep it in a place unknown to his packC. Wait until his pack has eaten and is fullD. Make sure that no pack member eats it alone59. It is 21’s _____ that will leave McIntyre and the w riter a lasting impression.A. attackB. defenseC. strengthD. kindness(B)Dear Thomas and Luke,Thanks for your question. First of all, I should mention that not all birds have their eyes on the sides of their heads. Pigeons, parrots and sparrows do, but other birds, such as owls and hawks, have large eyes placed close together at the front of their heads.Whether they have eyes at the front or on the sides of their heads, all birds can still see straight ahead. But that doesn’t mean all birds see things in the same way. In fact, where a bird’s eyes are on its head can tell us a lot about how it sees the world.Where a bird’s eyes are on its head affects its field of vision—that’s how much it can see in front and to the side at any one time. Think about how far you can see to either side without turning your head: these are the limits of your own field of vision.Because owls have eyes at the front of their heads, they have a smaller field of vision—around 150 degrees for a barn owl.Parrots, pigeons and other birds with eyes on the sides of their heads have a much bigger field of vision, of about 300 degrees. Amazingly, this means that they can see in front and a long way to the side, at the same time.Where the eyes are placed decides how a bird views its surroundings using different types of vision. Binocular vision means both eyes focus on the same object at the same time, and eye movement is coordinated—this is the kind of vision that predatory birds such as owls rely on most. Monocular vision means each eye is focused on a different object at any particular moment, and this is normal for parrots and pigeons. Having different kinds of vision helps different kinds of birds survive in the wild.For parrots and pigeons, having eyes on the sides of their heads is a huge advantage. Having a wider field of vision with only a small blind spot behind them lets these birds see where they are going, while also keeping an eye out for predators which might be trying to attack them.For predatory raptors such as barn owls, having forward-facing eyes helps them to see depth and distance much more clearly, since both eyes can focus on the same object at the same time. This is perfect for spotting and catching small prey such as field mice.So though it might s eem like birds with eyes on the side of their heads can’t see where they are going, they can see forward and sideways at the same time, and in fact can see much more than those with eyes facing forwards.60. Which of the following is most likely to be Tho mas and Luke’s question?A. Which kind of birds can see farthest than others?B. Do birds see with their eyes, like we do, or with something else.C. Bird’s eyes are on the side so how do they see where they’re going?D. Birds have eyes that vary in size so why can they see to either side?61. The picture on the right shows _____ field of vision.A. parrots’B. pigeons’C. sparrows’D. owls’62. Which of the following statements is true of the birds that have eyes on the sides?A. They can focus on two things at the same time.B. They have a relatively bigger blind spot behind.C. They can see either see forward or sideways at a time.D. They are better at locating and catching small animals.(C)Monstrous oceanic waves are able to transport boulders(巨石)weighing hundreds of tonnes. The finding helps explain how huge rocks end up atop high cliffs and also implies that storm waves can be more powerful and dangerous than previously thought.Until recently, the heaviest rock known to have been transported by waves was about 200 tonnes. Now Ronadh Cox of Williams College in Massachusetts and her colleagues have found a new record holder: a 620-tonne boulder, equivalent to roughly three Statues of Liberty.Cos found the boulder on the west coast of Ireland. The region was struck by some huge storms during the winter of 2013-2014. When she and her team examined photographs taken before and after the storms, they found the massive boulder had been moved about 2.5 metres.Many researchers didn’t think such heav y boulders could be moved by storm waves, says Cox.“Calculations and force-balancing equations suggested that storm waves did not have sufficient power, so there were people who argued strongly that only tsunamis were capable of moving such huge blocks,”sh e says.However, advances in buoy technology(浮标技术)are making possible more detailed measurements of storm waves, and we now know they can produce huge forces.“It’s fun to show that these giant boulders were moved around during storms, and to imagine the wild energy of the waves,”Cox says.Perhaps the most important part of the new work is its application to assessing dangers caused by waves to coastal areas. The team tracked not only the biggest boulders, but also the distribution of more than a thousand sm aller boulders at many sites along Ireland’s western coast. Cox says the pattern of boulder movements is a guide to the kinds of wave forces that Ireland’s coast, and other like it, might face during future storms.In December, Ireland’s Environmental Prot ection Agency published a report suggesting that storms may become more intense because of climate change; therefore, knowing just how powerful waves can be may prove vital for protecting coastlines where people are living.“A wave that can move a 600-tonn e rock can also move anything else that’s 600 tonnes,”says Cox.“And if storminess increases, as it may well with climate change, then that kind of wave power, currently occurring on remote, exposed coastlines, might be coming to coastlines that do not curr ently experience it.”Cox says it is unlikely the 620-tonne boulder is the biggest object that ocean waves can move. There are boulders in the study area that are even heavier and they bear signs of wave transport. However, they didn’t move during the storms in question, so we don’t yet have definitive evidence that waves can move them.63. What did Cox and her colleagues find?A. High cliffs were mysteriously under water for some time.B. The west coast of Ireland has suffered from more frequent storms.C. A boulder of 200 tonnes was transported by waves to a distant spot.D. A boulder thought too heavy to move traveled a certain distance.64. According to Cox, which of the following is also worth looking at?A. Where boulders arriveB. Where people want to liveC. How high the temperature will beD. How coastlines can defend storms65. It can be inferred from the passage that Cox’s research and finding is especially meaningful now because _____.A. climate change leads to stronger stormsB. buoy technology needs more applicationsC. heavier tocks are potential dangers to touristsD. more people are choosing to live in coastal areas66. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A. Why are boulders traveling in a new direction?B. The biggest ever boulder moving aroundC. Let the boulders fall where they may beD. Boulders: a sign of climate changeSection CDirections:Complete the following passage by using the sentences given below. Each sentencesHow and when should I exercise?The benefits of exercise have been duly noted and your resolutions have been made. Yes, you want to be fit and live a long and healthy life. ___67___According to standard advice issued by the World Health Organization, adults should be getting at least 150 minutes of moderate physical activity or 75 minutes of vigorous activity per week to extend their lives, get fit, have stronger muscles and be a healthy weight. If that didn’t already sound a lot, the WHO ways to double that if you want to get further benefits.The good news for those who dislike sports is that it’s possible to stick to these guidelines without entering a gym or breaking into a jog. ___68___This idea fits with evidence from a study last year of more than 130,000 people in 17 countries, which found that walking to work and housework such as vacuuming or mopping the floor are activities enough to reduce the risk of early death by 28 per cent, as long as you do 150 minutes a week. If you aren’t one for housework, you will be pleased to hear that your weekly amount of exercise can be put into the weekend with no ill effects, says Gray O’Donovan of Loughborough University, UK. ___69___ But his team analysed data from more than 63,000 adults in the UK covering 18 yea rs and found that people who favoured a“weekend fighter”plan had pretty much the same reduced risk of early death from all causes as those who spread out exercise.“One weekly exercise is usually sufficient to reduce mortality and morbidity(死亡率和发病率),”O’ Donovan says. Even weekend fighters who did less than the recommended amount for the week fared better than inactive people.___70___“No level of exercise is too much,”says O’Donovan.“There’s no increase in mortality or morbidity if you keep increasing the amount.”Just don’t go too hard each time.Ⅳ. Summary WritingDirections:Read the following passage. Summarize in no more than 60 words the main idea of the passage and how it is illustrated. Use your own words as far as possible.The end of books? Perhaps notA major online bookseller recently announced that sales of ebooks are now worth more than sales of traditional paperback and hardback combined. So does this mean the end of the traditional paper novel as we know it?I love the availability of ebooks, the fact that within one device, I can be recommended a book that I’ll most likely enjoy, order it and start reading it, all in a matter of minutes. I no longer have to spend hours walking along endless shelves in a book shop, trying to decide whether I’l l actually enjoy the book I’ve chosen. It’s easier to travel light nowadays, too, as I just carry hundreds of books round with me in one simple device.But does this really mean the book is dead? I don’t think so. After all, the same thing was said about the rise of television, and radio before that. In fact, as far back as 1835, Theophile Gautier, in his novel Mademoiselle de Maupin, declared,“The newspaper is killing the books, as the book killed architecture.”You see, the traditional book is a tough character. There’s something almost romantic about it, whether it’s the smell of its pages, or the way it’s like a trusty friend that fits reassuringly under your arm on the train or bus, which tells the world a little about you by its cover. It can be an old friend that we return to when we’re feeling down, and our bookshelves stand as a kind of history of our lives, with each faded cover holding memories and pleasures unique to each of us.What the online bookseller didn’t mention when reporting their sales f igures is that sales of paperback and hardback books are also rising, and that this particular bookseller, while huge, has only 19% of the overall market for novels. Of course, the ebook is going to have its place in the future, but it will simply become another form of media we comet to enjoy.Ⅴ. TranslationDirections:Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.72. 电池使用前必须充电。

高中英语高一下册七选五模拟试卷测试题(含答案)Many regions in China have introduced COVID-19 vaccination (接种疫苗) among children aged 3 to 11. Kids are encouraged to take it and the project is progressing, which might be important to stopping the spread of the coronavirus. ____1____Why do children get the same dosage (剂量) as adults?When children get sick, they are generally given a reduced dosage. Many parents are worried that the same COVID-19 vaccine dosage will be a burden on the small body. So there is need for proper dose in children. ____2____. The process of vaccines taking effect has no relation with the weight and body surface area of the receiver. In fact, for the majority of vaccines, the recommended doses for both babies and adults are the same.Can children have full immunity (免疫力) after receiving the COVID-19 vaccine?Some parents doubt whether vaccinating children aged 3 to 11 can produce the due immune effect as their immune systems are still developing. Actually, vaccines can work exactly the same in both children and adults. The vaccine will produce a near 100 percent immune response in children.____3____ So the same vaccination strategy has been adopted for all age groups in China.____4____A vaccine has to go through a strict procedure before being widely used in a specific age group. Enough data need to be collected to get emergency use or come onto the market. So the medical experiments have to be considered in advance. China has carried out a series of such studies. Based on research resnlts, the risk of negative reactions in children is no higher than that of adults.____5____.

Most artificial snow is made using snow cannons. As the air’s cooling capacity falls, so does the amount of water that can be pumped through the machine. ____8____ At -4℃ a snow cannon can operate at around 80% humidity. But if the outside temperature is -1℃, this must be reduced to around 30% humidity.In 1980, the Olympics held in America became the first Winter Games to use machine-made snow. ____9____ Artificial snow also appeared at the two recent Winter Olympics, in Sochi, Russia (2014), and Vancouver, British Columbia (2010). And the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing is the first to rely entirely on artificial snow.____10____ The International Olympic Committee states that it creates a more consistent surface. In addition, the snow that comes from a cannon is icier than natural snow. It melts more slowly, and provides a harder surface for athletes looking for speed. The first Olympics using entirely artificial snow will probably not be the last.A.But they weren’t the last.B.It is made from waterdrops.C.That’s when artificial snow comes in.D.What is artificial snow, and how is it made?E.Temperature also plays a significant role in snowmaking.F.Artificial snow can be applied into a wide range of fields.G.Artificial snow is well worth using in the Winter Olympics.Volunteering offers vital help to people in need and the community.______11______.Volunteering can help you find friends, learn new skills, and even advance your career.Volunteering can connect you to others. ______12______ Unpaid volunteers are often the glue (黏合剂).

The fact is that we don’t relax enough and enjoy our leisure time enough.So what’s the fix? Maybe it’s making the best use of the potential leisure time we do have, particularly our weekends. It feels like a lot of us just use Saturday and Sunday to make up for work and sleep. ____21____. Below are some relaxation tips and a few hints on how to have a good weekend.Take some time away from your phone!It is called “screen/life balance.” _____22_____.

If you want to be really bold, try leaving your phone at home during certain weekend activities.Stay in the moment!Find ways to make y our mind focus on where you are in the moment, what you’re doing right then and there, and what it all feels like. “Five senses meditation” is a great way to achieve the stage of focus. To do this, get still and focus on what you’re sensing. Notice five th ings you can see. Then four that you can feel. Three that you can hear. Two you can taste. One you can smell. _____23_____. And sometimes you don’t have to follow that playbook exactly, just do whatever you want to do with the five senses.____24____.A lot of us fall into the trap of saving weekend work we have to complete for Sunday evening, which means Sunday can be pretty stressful and feel like Monday.

We should redefine our hangouts: make new memories and learn new things about the people you care about._____25_____. Maybe ask your friends to tell you a memory of their first date or the story of their favorite song. ANYTHING but work.A.Ask questions that go beyond “how was your week?”.B.Beat the “Sunday scaries” by planning something fun, for the end of your weekend! C.Being lost in phones will cause neck pain and prevent people from getting out for fun. D.Thinking about tho se senses and what you’re experiencing can help you keep focused. E.One recent study found that just over a quarter of working people plan to use all their vacation days. The rest of us — most of us — never do.F.However, there are ways to maximize the weekend time to head back to work on Monday feeling more energized and happier.G.Setting up some rules for phone use over the weekend can be helpful.The Dancing House in Prague, Czechia, is designed by Frank Gehry and Vlado Milunić. When it was first built, it caused a big debate because of its unusual design. Those against it said the building is not suitable for the surrounding. ____26____Before World War II, there was a 19th-century building where the Dancing House is today. Due to the damage of that building, after the war, it was decided to build a new and modern building to replace (替代) it. ____27____ But he didn’t accept it. Later, Frank Gehry and Vlado Milunić took the project and designed this unique building.The building of the Dancing House started in 1992 and completed in 1996. The house includes two main buildings.

But what about who you are at your core (核心)? ___31___ Personality is the pattern of thoughts, feelings and behaviors unique to a person. People tend to think of personality as fixed. But according to psychologists (心理学家), that’s n ot how it works; personality doesn’t stay the same all your life. ___32___That’s not to say that you’re a different person each day you wake up. ___33___ In a study, researchers followed some adults for many years until their early 70s. They discovered that adulthood’s personality is actually stable in short time periods.___34___ They will look at how a child reacts to the world. Research suggests that our childhood’s moods —for example, whether we’re easy-going or bad-tempered, willing or unwilling to approach strangers — shape our personality of older ages. ___35___ If a child is always shy and withdrawn (离群的), he may grow into an unhappy teenager.

Of these three, work experience carries a lot more weight.“Why do you want to work for this company?”___38___, you are letting the interviewer know tha t you haven’t done much research about the company or the job you are being interviewed for. Interviewees who can give detailed answers about the benefits of working for a particular company make a much better impression on interviewers.“What are your strengths and what is your biggest weakness?” People have a hard time answering the first question because it feels like boasting (吹嘘) in some ways. ___39___. The second question poses a problem because the answer needs to be a weakness that sounds like a strength. A good tip to keep in mind is to mention how you are trying to improve.A final suggestion for preparing for an interview is to go into the interview with your own questions to ask. ___40___ .A.Tell me about yourselfB.But an interview has no time to be shyC.For instance, answer questions relate to familyD.If you don’t have an answer ready for this questionE.By asking questions about the company, you are showing interest for the jobF.Probably the most frequently asked questions in any job interview are as followsG.If you don’t feel comfortable giving such personal information, then simply don’tHow often have you thought: “When I lose this weight, I’ll be more confident and happy”?
