Ⅱ.阅读理解 (2017·广东佛山一中月考) A child who has once been pleased with a tale likes,as a rule,to have it retold in almost the same words,but this should not lead parents to treat printed fairy stories as formal texts.It is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a book,and,if a parent can produce what,in the actual situation of the time and the child,is an improvement on the printed text,so much the better. A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or making him sad thinking.To prove the latter,one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often sorry for cruelty than those who had not.As to fears,there are,I think,some cases of children being dangerously terrified by some fairy story.Often,however,this arises from the child having heard the story once.Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear faced and mastered. There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true,that giants,witches,twoheaded dragons,magic carpets,etc.do not exist; and that,instead of being fond of the strange side in fairy tales,the child should be taught to learn the reality by studying history.I find such people,I must say so peculiar that I do not know how to argue with them.If their cases were sound,the world should be full of mad men attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a stick or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their beloved girlfriend. No fairy story ever declared to be a description of the real world and no clever child has ever believed that it was. 语篇解读 本文主要讲述了有些人不喜欢童话的原因:一方面,有些童话令孩子们害怕;另一方面,童话脱离了现实。 11.The author considers that a fairy story is more effective when it is . A.repeated without any change B.treated as a joke C.made some changes by the parent D.set in the present 答案 C 解析 细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“...if a parent can produce what,in the actual situation of the time and the child,is an improvement on the printed text,so much the better.”可知,如果家长能够做出适当改进,那么讲故事的效率会更高。故选C。 12.According to the passage,great fear can take place in a child when the story is . A.in a realistic setting B.heard for the first time C.repeated too often D.told in a different way 答案 B 解析 细节理解题。根据第二段第三、四句“...children being dangerously terrified by some fairy story...arises from the child having heard the story once.”可知,孩子们第一次听童话故事的时候会非常害怕,故选B。 13.The advantage claimed for repeating fairy stories to young children is that it . A.makes them less fearful B.develops their power of memory C.makes them believe there is nothing to be afraid of D.encourages them not to have strange beliefs 答案 A 解析 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear faced and mastered.”可知,如果孩子反复听一个童话故事,那么会让他们减少恐惧。故选A。 14.One of the reasons why some people are not in favor of fairy tales is that . A.they are full of absurd imagination B.they just make up the stories which are far from the truth C.they are not interesting D.they make teachers of history difficult to teach 答案 B 解析 推理判断题。结合全文可知,一些人不赞成童话故事的原因在于童话故事编了一些远离事实的故事,故选B。 Ⅲ.七选五 (2017·安徽马鞍山二十二中月考) It’s normal to wake briefly during the night. 15 But if you’re waking up during the night and having trouble falling back asleep,the following tips may help. Stay out of your head.The key to getting back to sleep is continuing to prepare your body for sleep,so remain in bed in a relaxed position.Hard as it may be,try not to stress over the fact that you’re awake,because that very stress and anxiety encourage your body to stay awake. 16 17 If you are finding it hard to fall back asleep,try a relaxation technique such as visualization(想象),deep breathing,or meditation,which can be done without even getting out of bed.Remind yourself that although they’re not a replacement for sleep,rest and relaxation still help refresh your body. Do a quiet,nonstimulating activity.If you’ve been awake for more than 15 minutes,try getting out of bed and doing a quiet,nonstimulating activity,such as reading a book.Keep the lights dim so as not to think that it’s time to wake up. 18 A light snack might help relax you,but be careful not to eat so much that your body begins to expect a meal at that time of the day. 19 If you wake during the night feeling anxious about something,make a brief note of it on paper and postpone worrying about it until the next day when you are fresh and it will be easier to resolve. A.Make relaxation your goal,not sleep. B.Put off worries and troubles. C.Use a flashlight to go to the bathroom at night. D.In fact,a good sleeper won’t even remember it. E.Also avoid screens of any kind—computers,TVs,cell phones,iPads. F.You’ll be much more productive and creative after a good night’s rest. G.A good way to stay out of your head is to focus on the feeling in your body. 语篇解读 本文介绍了睡眠过程中会突然醒过来,如果此后长时间睡不着可以采取的一些措施。 15.答案 D 解析 从前面的句子“It’s normal to wake briefly during the night.(晚上偶尔醒了是正常的)”以及下文“But if...back asleep...”可知“有的睡眠好的人甚至不记得了”承上启下。选D。 16.答案 G 解析 从段首的句子“Stay out of your head.The key to getting back to sleep is continuing to prepare your body for sleep,so remain in bed in a relaxed position.”可知要想重新入睡最好的办法是专注于身体的感受。选G。 17.答案 A 解析 从后面的句子“If you are finding it hard to fall back asleep,try a relaxation technique such as visualization(想象)...”可知本段主要讲的是要尽量放松。选A。 18.答案 E 解析 从前面的句子“Keep the lights dim so as not to think that it’s time to wake up.”可知一切有屏幕的东西都要避免。选E。 19.答案 B 解析 从前面的句子“If you wake during the night feeling anxious about something,make a brief note of it on paper and postpone worrying about it until the next day...”可知本段主要讲的是把担心推迟到第二天。选B。 Ⅳ.完形填空 (2016·湖北天门调研) Sometimes the people who are noticed the least can do the most to lift us up.On Thanksgiving 20 I took part in a local running activity.It was barely above freezing that morning so every runner was walking or jumping around trying to stay 21 .

The Tang poems are various in forms and subjects.Generally speaking,they can be divided into two groups—classical poems and modern poems.Not only the length of a line but also the length of a poem is limited to a certain number of words.There are often four or eight or twelve lines with five or seven words in each line.Poets wrote poems for different purposes,for example,exposing the darkness of the society and describing the beautiful scenes. There were many famous poets during the Tang Dynasty,such as Li Bai,Du Fu and Bai Juyi.If you want to read more,the book 300 Tang Poems is a good choice,which includes poems of many wellknown poets.After reading them,you will have a better understanding of the Tang poems.

According to an investigation by The Wall Street Journal,all it takes is a tiny file in a computer-a single code consisting of a long series of numbers and letters-to record the computer user's age,gender,location,favorite movies and hobbies. The newspaper reports that Lotame Solutions Inc.,a New York company,uses a sophisticated (先进的) software.called “beacon”to capture what people are typing on a website. Lotame packages that data into profiles (个人资料) about individuals,only without their names,and sells the profiles to companies seeking customers.Batches of such data may be sold for a few dollars. The Wall Street Journal survey discovered that spying on Internet users is one of the fastestgrowing businesses on the World Wide Web. The “cookie”-a tiny text file put on your PC by websites or marketing firms which might be used to remember your preferences for one site,or to track you across many sites is already old news.There are new and more complex tools such as “beacons”which scan in real time what people are doing on a webpage.These beacons instantly assess the Internet user's location,income,shopping interests and even medical conditions. Millions of Internet users around the world also face unprecedented (空前的) threats.Private,sensitive,personal and business information is being gathered and sold without their knowledge. Companies insist the information they gather is anonymous and the data is used harmlessly.But the technology has grown so powerful that even some of the biggest websites in the US don't know that they were installing intrusive files on visitors' computers.These include MSN.com and Yahoo.com. Next time you visit a webpage and find an ad banner advertising something you've been planning to buy,don't be amazed that your computer can read your mind. 【语篇导读】 经常上网的人可能都遇到过这样的情况:浏览网页(surfing the Internet)时总是跳出一些广告,内容还都是你最近想买的商品。别误会,你的电脑还没智能到读懂你的想法——是你的个人隐私被出卖啦!赶快来看看是怎么一回事吧! 1.The purpose of the passage is to________.

When buying food,read attentively the labels on the food products.All manufacturers according to the new Food Allergen and Consumer Act must clearly list all the elements of the product including the 8 food allergens even if they are present in very small amounts.Don't buy these products,even if they might be cheaper. Parents should be very cautious when preparing food.The table and cooking tools used need to be clean.It is recommended to cook the food of the allergic person in the first place. Food allergic persons should have a little patience.In certain people,the allergy disappears gradually.Visit your doctor at regular times to find about the progress of your allergies instead of having strict diets every day. Keep a diary to note the foods that worsen your food allergies,new experiences and changes that you notice.Being tempted to have a piece of cake can be very dangerous.Your health is much more worth than it.Always think about the efforts people around you are putting to create an allergicfree environment for you.
