A.Make use of. B.Stand by. C.Keep up with. D.Go against. 答案 B 解析 词义猜测题。根据画线部分后面的“...said students would also have a day off on the Lunar New Year,and not long ago the Asian holiday took place on February 8,2016.”可知de Blasio说学生也将在春节放假一天,而不久前,这个亚洲节日就在2016年2月8日到来了。由此可推知,此处指de Blasio兑现了他在2013年的市长选举中许下的诺言。stand by sth.意为“遵守诺言(或协议等)”,与画线部分意思相近。故选B。 12.How does New York make the Lunar New Year an official public school holiday? A.By cancelling a legal 1day holiday. B.By copying the way of San Francisco. C.By adding a new full day to the school calendar. D.By changing the legal 180 school days. 答案 C 解析 细节理解题。根据第四段第二句“The problem was solved by combining two half days that previously did not count towards the total to form a single full day that can be counted towards the total.”可知,解决这个问题的方法是把原本不算进法定的180天教学日的两个半天合并为一天,并算进教学日的总天数中。故选C。 13.What do we know from Ron Kim’s words? A.He’s opposed to the new school holiday. B.Asian culture is valued most in New York. C.Asian culture is part of the American society. D.The holiday wipes out Asian Americans’ isolation. 答案 C 解析 推理判断题。由最后一段中的“It’s about the City of New York telling hundreds of AsianAmerican societies that America is a cultural melting pot.”可知,学校春节放假一天是纽约市在告诉数以百计的亚裔美国群体,美国是一个文化熔炉。言外之意就是美国接受亚洲的文化,亚洲文化同样是美国社会的一部分。故选C。 14.What’s the best title for this passage? A.A New Public School Holiday in New York B.A Promise Made by the Mayor of New York C.Cultural Differences Between America and Asia D.A Revolution of the Lunar New Year in New York 答案 A 解析 标题归纳题。本文主要介绍了纽约的公立学校增加了一个新的节假日——春节,这反映出亚洲文化已经成为美国文化的一部分。故选A。 Ⅲ.七选五 (2017·四川成都经济开发区实验中学期中) As a child grows up,you may wonder how you can teach him to become a respectful adult. 15 A child who learns to respect not only learns to receive respect from others in kind,but also learns to respect himself. •Show him respect. This is the best way to teach your child how to respect others.Listen to your child attentively and he will learn to listen to you,understanding how important this is in communication. • 16 The more you say “please” and “thank you” to your child,the more likely he will learn to use them.Politeness then becomes a normal part of any conversation. •Agree to disagree. 17 Explain your decision so that he will understand you and expect respectful responses.Disagreeing with you doesn’t necessarily mean disobedience(不顺从). •Control your impulse to overreact. When a situation arises,stay calm and keep in mind that you are supposed to be modelling correct behaviour. 18 •Praise,praise,praise. So much is focused on what a child does wrong and how to correct it that his accomplishments are not celebrated enough. 19 A.If he sees you lose your temper,he is more likely to respond with that way in future. B.Try to remember that a child won’t always agree with you. C.Seeing a child exhibit respectful behaviour,make sure he knows how proud you are of him. D.Teach manners by using polite requests and responses. E.A child may act as he pleases,and he will live a happy life. F.Respect is necessary for a meaningful and successful life. G.Respectful behaviour is always accompanied by bad behaviour as a child. 答案 15.F 16.D 17.B 18.A 19.C Ⅳ.完形填空 (2016·河南商丘一中考前押题三) During my stay at an orphanage(孤儿院)at the age of 9,a gentleman came and taught us how to do woodworking projects.

To test for that possibility,Dr.Berger looked at how people spread a particular set of news stories: thousands of articles on The New York Times’ website.He and a Penn colleague analyzed the “most emailed” list for six months.One of his first findings was that articles in the science section were much more likely to make the list than nonscience articles.He found that science amazed Times’ readers and made them want to share this positive feeling with others. Readers also tended to share articles that were exciting or funny,or that inspired negative feelings like anger or anxiety,but not articles that left them merely sad.They needed to be aroused(激发) one way or the other,and they preferred good news to bad.The more positive an article,the more likely it was to be shared,as Dr.Berger explains in his new book,“Contagious: Why Things Catch On.” 32.What do the classic rules mentioned in the text apply to? A.News reports. B.Research papers. C.Private emails. D.Daily conversations. 答案 A 解析 细节理解题。根据首段中的“Those are the classic rules for the evening broadcasts and the morning papers.”可知,这些规则适用于新闻报道。故选A。 33.What can we infer about people like Debbie Downer? A.They’re socially inactive. B.They’re good at telling stories. C.They’re inconsiderate of others. D.They’re careful with their words. 答案 C 解析 细节理解题。根据第二段最后两句可知,像Debbie Downer那样的人是不考虑别人感受的。故选 C。 34.Which tended to be the most emailed according to Dr.Berger’s research? A.Sports news. B.Science articles. C.Personal accounts. D.Financial reviews. 答案 B 解析 细节理解题。根据第三段最后两句可知,人们更愿意转发一些科学类的文章。故选B。 35.What can be a suitable title for the text? A.Sad Stories Travel Far and Wide B.Online News Attracts More People C.Reading Habits Change with the Times D.Good News Beats Bad on Social Networks 答案 D 解析 标题归纳题。全文讲述了好消息在社交网络媒体中传播得更快更深远的现实,这打破了传统媒体中坏消息传播得又快又广的惯例,正面的新闻更容易被分享。故选D。 Step Two 信息句与长难句分析 1.(34题信息句)One of his first findings was that articles in the science section were much more likely to make the list than nonscience articles. 翻译: 他最初的发现之一就是科技类的文章比非科技类的文章更加容易登上排行榜。 分析:句中that引导表语从句;从句的主语为articles,其后in the science section为介词短语作后置定语;系动词were后为more...than...比较结构作表语。 2.Readers also tended to share articles that were exciting or funny,or that inspired negative feelings like anger or anxiety,but not articles that left them merely sad. 翻译:读者还倾向于分享那些令人兴奋的、有趣的或者是一些激起愤怒或者焦虑等负面情绪的文章,而不是那些只会让他们伤感的文章。 分析:句中三个that都引导定语从句,且作从句中的主语。 Step Three 深度阅读与拓展训练 真题精选对应训练 (2014·全国Ⅱ,阅读理解B) Since the first Earth Day in 1970,Americans have gotten a lot “greener” toward the environment.“We didn’t know at that time that there even was an environment,let alone that there was a problem with it,” says Bruce Anderson,president of Earth Day USA. But what began as nothing important in public affairs has grown into a social movement.Business people,political leaders,university professors,and especially millions of grassroots Americans are taking part in the movement.“The understanding has increased many,many times,” says Gaylord Nelson,the former governor from Wisconsin,who thought up the first Earth Day. According to US government reports,emissions(排放) from cars and trucks have dropped from 10.3 million tons a year to 5.5 million tons.The number of cities producing CO beyond the standard has been reduced from 40 to 9.Although serious problems still remain and need to be dealt with,the world is a safer and healthier place.A kind of “green thinking” has become part of practices. Great improvement has been achieved.In 1988 there were only 600 recycling programs;today in 1995 there are about 6,600.Advanced lights,motors,and building designs have helped save a lot of energy and therefore prevented pollution. Twentyfive years ago,there were hardly any education programs for environment.Today,it’s hard to find a public school,university,or law school that does not have such a kind of program.“Until we do that,nothing else will change!” says Bruce Anderson. 语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了自从1970年的第一个“地球日”以来,美国人在环保问题认识上的变化以及他们采取了一些有效措施积极应对环境问题等。文章最后还指出了教育在环保方面的重要性。 5.According to Anderson,before 1970,Americans had little idea about . A.the social movement B.recycling techniques C.environmental problems D.the importance of Earth Day 答案 C 解析 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“We didn’t know at that time that there even was an environment,let alone that there was a problem with it...”可知,当时美国人对环境问题没有足够的认识,因此应选择C项。 6.Where does the support for environmental protection mainly come from? A.The grassroots level. B.The business circle. C.Government officials. D.University professors. 答案 A 解析 细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“Business people,political leaders,university professors,and especially millions of grassroots Americans are taking part in the movement.”可知,这里强调了这个运动的支持者应该是那些普通的美国民众,因此答案应是A项The grassroots level,从而排除前面提到的那几类人。 7.What have Americans achieved in environmental protection? A.They have cut car emissions to the lowest. B.They have settled their environmental problems. C.They have lowered their CO levels in forty cities. D.They have reduced pollution through effective measures. 答案 D 解析 细节理解题。文章第三段的第一句说明了汽车和卡车的尾气排放量从每年1 030万吨降到了550万吨,由此可排除A项;再结合第二句“一氧化碳排放超标的城市从40个降到了9个”可知C项是错误的;根据第三句提到的“环境问题依然严峻”可知,这个问题还没有得到解决,所以排除B项;本段列举的这些数字证明了美国人采取了有效措施,减少了环境污染,因此答案选D项。 8.What is especially important for environmental protection according to the last paragraph? A.Education. B.Planning. C.Green living. D.CO reduction. 答案 A 解析 推理判断题。结合最后一段提到的“25年以前,在美国几乎没有关于环境的教育项目,而如今,很难找到没有类似项目的公立学校、大学或者法学院了”,再结合布鲁斯所说的“没有教育,就无法改变环境问题”等,我们可以推断出教育(education)的重要性,故选A。 第三节 话题写作 情景专练1 孩子的成长和教育是社会热议的话题,现今父母包揽一切、孩子过度依赖等现象十分严重。请阅读下面的漫画,按要求用英文写一篇短文。 内容要求: 1.描述漫画内容; 2.分析漫画揭示的问题; 3.提出你的看法。 注意:词数100左右。 参考词汇:铺路pave the way Ⅰ.记增分素材 1.穿着得体be well dressed 2.普遍现象common phenomenon 3.肩负……的希望shoulder the hope of 4.为……安排…… arrange...for... 5.不遗余力地做…… spare no effort to do sth. 6.为……铺平道路pave the way for 7.结果as a consequence,as a result 8.克服困难overcome difficulties Ⅱ.练高分句式 From the picture we can see a family of three walking on a long red carpet.The son,(1)well dressed,waves proudly in the middle(穿得很体面,自豪地在中间挥着手)while the father behind bends forward to hold the jacket and the mother in front rolls out the carpet,sweating. It shows a common phenomenon nowadays that children are the focus of families,shouldering the hope of their parents.Parents arrange everything for their children and spare no effort to pave the way for their success.(2)As a consequence,children become so reliant on their parents that they have no independent thought or creative ideas(结果,孩子们变得如此依赖父母以至于他们没有独立思想和创造性思维). Such a situation is of great concern.In my opinion,overprotection and too much care are extremely bad for children’s development.Instead of doing everything for them,parents should encourage their children to overcome difficulties and inspire them to develop by themselves.(3) Only in this way can they grow up to be independent and become truly successful(只有这样他们才能独立成长并真正成功). 情景专练2 上周日,你班开展以“美化城市环境,倡导低碳生活”为宗旨的志愿者活动。活动内容包括:上午去郊区植树;下午去广场宣传,分发传单。请你就这个活动为校报写一篇题为“A Voluntary Activity”的短文。内容包括: 1.活动内容、宗旨; 2.对同学的影响以及你的评价。 注意:词数100左右。 参考词汇:传单 leaflet Ⅰ.记增分素材 1.环境保护environmental protection 2.对……高度评价think highly of 3.对……有积极的影响 have a positive effect on 4.就我而言as far as I’m concerned/personally 5.只要as long as/so long as 6.采取行动take action,take measures Ⅱ.练高分句式 A Voluntary Activity Last Sunday,our class launched a voluntary activity,(1)the theme of which is to make the city more beautiful and advocate a lowcarbon lifestyle(其主题是让城市更美,倡导低碳生活).In the morning,we went to plant trees in the suburbs.We worked in cooperation.Some dug holes,some carried and planted trees,and others watered them.In the afternoon,we went to the People’s Square to hand out leaflets,(2)raising people’s awareness of environmental protection(提高人们的环保意识).Most of the students think highly of the activity,which will surely have a positive effect on our daily life. As far as I’m concerned,it’s everyone’s duty to protect the environment.As long as there is the possibility of saving our planet,(3) do take action now before it is too late(一定要在还来得及之前采取措施).Lowcarbon living is surely a way of great significance.

The new findings go strongly against the common belief that advancement in a career can result in better health because of an increased sense of selfconfidence,life control and overall wellbeing(幸福感 ).“Getting a promotion at work is not as great as many people may think.Our research finds that the mental health of managers typically deteriorates after a job promotion and goes beyond merely a shortterm change in a way,”said Chris Boyce, the researcher of the University of Warwick.He also added that they could not find any health benefits in individuals who had had job promotions.Instead,these people don't go to hospital to have health checks as often as they should,which may be something to worry about rather than celebrate. To find out whether there is a connection between job advancement and physical health,Boyce and his team used data from the British Household Panel Survey.The data contained information on nearly 1,000 recently promoted individuals in the United Kingdom.And the data contained information on many aspects of life,including work and selfreported health.After analyzing all the available information,they discovered that there was no evidence of improved physical health after a job promotion. However,what the researchers did find was evidence of greater mental stress.The experts found that promotion gives people,on average,10 percent more mental stress and up to 20 percent less time to visit their doctors in the event of illness.Matt Smith,a Scottish health expert,said mental stress is caused by working long hours.He said,“When someone is promoted there might be even more pressure to work longer hours and therefore they can't afford the time to care about their health.” 【语篇导读】 升职会让人精神焕发,信心百倍,还是身体健康受到影响?最新的研究 发现升职不但健康受到影响而且精神压力也很大。 1.According to the text we can learn that work promotion________.
