Rushing to the front yard, he saw that the house across the street was engulfed in flames, with his neighbors trapped inside. According to WFMZ-TV, Rivera didn’t hesitate. He climbed up the three-story building, which was already covered in flames. On a narrow ledge (窗台) at the burning home, a woman was trying to pull a man out of an attic window as smoke poured out. The man was calling for help. Rivera and a neighbor quickly grabbed a ladder and rushed to assist. “I just started jumping, jumping and jumping,” Rivera told WFMZ-TV. He managed to reach the top floor and pulled the man from the window, who had yelled, “Help me. I can’t walk.” Eyewitness Janeen Huth, who recorded the rescue, praised Rivera for risking his life while his young children watched from the door. “Come on! Come on!” Huth can be heard shouting in the video, as other onlookers and firefighters worked to assist. “Rivera is a true hero,” she told The Morning Call. Rivera managed to get the victim onto the ledge, and firefighters then took over, bringing the man to safety. The rescued man sustained critical burns and was taken to the hospital, according to WFMZ-TV. The fire damaged six homes and led to the evacuation (疏散) of 20 people.

No library fines and no lottery jackpots? How about no tollbooths or parking meters or car payments — no cars at all for that matter, but we’ll get to that later. Imagine, too, if there were no coin tosses to decide who goes first. What would the tooth fairy leave under our pillow? If all this were true, language would be poorer as well. No one would feel like a million bucks. No one would give a penny for your thoughts. And what would be in your wallet? A toothpick, a picture, perhaps a love note, but no credit cards or cold hard cash. Instead of buying, you would have to grow or make whatever you might need. You would do a lot of physical labor in this moneyless world. Want a pair of pants? Then, raise some sheep, shear them, spin the yarn, weave the wool, and sew away. The complex process of manufacturing a car — mining coal, smelting iron, tempering steel, assembling a vehicle — makes it likely that you would have to ride a horse for transportation. You would live like a pioneer on the frontier, everyone more or less equal in the struggle to survive. To stressed-out modern Americans, this simple life may sound appealing, as it seems to create less waste and less greed. Instead of checks, people might spend time writing poems. No money means no rat race, the endless getting and spending, the pressure to keep up with neighbors and friends. In a moneyless world, families and neighbors depend on each other. And, you might have lots of brothers and sisters to share the work. Given how much time it takes to grow and make and fix things, swapping goods and services makes sense. If farmers grow wheat, millers may grind it in return for a share. Barter (物物交换) serves a local economy, but what if people want more — more comfort, more choices? What if they just want to wear something, anything, other than wool and animal skins? The desire for cloth fueled trade in the ancient world. Cotton grows only in warm climates; silkworms develop well in Asia. Traders can transport raw fibers or woven fabric from producers to consumers, but swapping does not work over long distances. Imagine pulling ham and eggs across continents. So, societies developed a portable alternative: money. Money is trust made visible. It does not matter what form it takes — bead or coin or byte in an electronic transaction. It simply represents an agreed-upon value. How did people ever live without it? 5．How does the writer introduce the topic? A．By describing a futuristic society B．By imagining a life without money C．By explaining the origin of money D．By detailing the history of bartering 6．What can we learn from the second paragraph? A．Society values money for its convenience. B．Money greatly enriches expressions. C．Money leads to social disorder. D．People prefer simplicity to money. 7．According to the passage, a moneyless world makes for ________. A．Equality B．Innovation C．Independence D．Competition 8．What is the author’s attitude towards the idea of a modern moneyless world? A．Carefree. B．Unclear. C．Disapproving. D．Supportive. 第二节 七选五（23-24学年四川成都阶段练习） 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 We all postpone sometimes. Statistics show that 90 percent of university students will often put off studying for a test or writing an important paper until the night before. 1 This serious form of postponement can result in a student dropping out of school. According to recent studies, there are three main reasons that students postpone. First, many have poor time-management skills and often try to do too much in too little time. In the end, these students often feel overwhelmed (应接不暇的) and will put off doing many things they need to. 2 These students will often avoid doing something because they don’t like it. A third reason is they are anxious about doing assignments (作业) well enough. 3 Do you recognize any of these signs in yourself? If so, you may want to do something about it. The following tips may be helpful. ●List things in life that are important to you. ●Choose realistic goals for yourself. ● 4 ●Budget your time wisely. ●Take the time to reward yourself. If you believe that you are a chronic (长期的) postponer, you should try to get help before it is too late. 5 Be sure to keep yourself motivated, but don’t worry too much. Remember — we all postpone at times. A．Talk to a friend, and discuss the problem. B．Once you have set your goals, list them in the first place. C．Many people put off doing things that they need to until it’s too late. D．Another reason that students postpone is because they feel a subject is boring. E．Twenty-five percent of university students can be considered as chronic postponers. F．Another reason that students delay is because they have difficulty concentrating on an assignment. G．These students often worry that their work will never be as good as it should be and fear failure of any kind. 2、 完形填空（24-25学年高二辽宁开学考试） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Some time ago, I decided to do a “Moonwalk Marathon” for charity.

No paychecks for parents and no allowances for kids? No library fines and no lottery jackpots? How about no tollbooths or parking meters or car payments — no cars at all for that matter, but we’ll get to that later. Imagine, too, if there were no coin tosses to decide who goes first. What would the tooth fairy leave under our pillow?(如果没有卖25美分一杯的柠檬水摊会怎么样？父母没有工资，孩子没有零花钱？没有图书馆罚款，也没有彩票头奖？如果不收收费站、不收停车计时器、不付车款呢——根本不收车，我们以后再谈。再想象一下，如果没有抛硬币来决定谁先走。牙仙会在我们枕头下留下什么？)”可知，作者通过想象没有钱的生活引入主题。故选B。 6．细节理解题。根据第二段“If all this were true, language would be poorer as well. No one would feel like a million bucks. No one would give a penny for your thoughts. And what would be in your wallet? A toothpick, a picture, perhaps a love note, but no credit cards or cold hard cash.(如果这一切都是真的，语言也会变得更贫乏。没人会觉得自己像个百万富翁。没人会为你的想法花一分钱。那你钱包里会有什么呢？一根牙签，一张照片，也许是一张爱的便条，但没有信用卡或现金)”可知，金钱极大地丰富了表达。故选B。 7．细节理解题。根据第四段“No money means no rat race, the endless getting and spending, the pressure to keep up with neighbors and friends. In a moneyless world, families and neighbors depend on each other. And, you might have lots of brothers and sisters to share the work.(没有钱意味着没有激烈的竞争，没有无休止的索取和消费，没有跟上邻居和朋友的压力。在一个没有钱的世界里，家庭和邻居相互依赖。而且，你可能有很多兄弟姐妹来分担工作)”可知，没有金钱就意味着没有竞争，没有压力，还能与很多兄弟姐妹分担工作，由此可知，一个没有钱的世界有利于平等。故选A。 8．推理判断题。根据最后一段“It simply represents an agreed-upon value. How did people ever live without it?(它只是表示一个商定的值。没有它，人们怎么生活？)”可知，作者不赞成现代无钱世界的观点。故选C。 第二节 七选五（23-24学年四川成都阶段练习） 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 We all postpone sometimes.

G．These students often worry that their work will never be as good as it should be and fear failure of any kind. 【答案】1．E 2．D 3．G 4．B 5．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了大学生普遍存在拖延的问题，而且部分学生拖延的问题很严重，并分析了该问题背后的原因，给出了相应的解决方法。 1．前文“Statistics show that 90 percent of university students will often put off studying for a test or writing an important paper until the night before. (统计数据显示，90%的大学生经常把备考或写重要论文的时间推迟到考试前一天晚上。)”指出数据显示大多数大学生存在拖延行为，后文“This serious form of postponement can result in a student dropping out of school. (这种严重的拖延会导致学生辍学。)”指出严重的拖延导致的后果，因此E项“Twenty-five percent of university students can be considered as chronic postponers. (25%的大学生可以被认为是长期拖延者。)”符合语境，进一步指出一部分大学生是长期拖延者，承前启后，后文的This serious form of postponement指的是“长期拖延”。故选E。 2．前文“First, many have poor time-management skills and often try to do too much in too little time. In the end, these students often feel overwhelmed (应接不暇的) and will put off doing many things they need to. (首先，许多人的时间管理能力很差，经常试图在很少的时间内做太多的事情。最后，这些学生经常感到应接不暇，会推迟做很多他们需要做的事情。)”具体介绍学生拖延的第一个原因：糟糕的时间管理能力，后文“These students will often avoid doing something because they don’t like it. (这些学生通常会避免做一些事情，因为他们不喜欢。)”说明学生会因为不喜欢而避免做某些事，因此D项“Another reason that students postpone is because they feel a subject is boring. (学生拖延的另一个原因是他们觉得这门课很无聊。)”符合语境，指出学生拖延的第二个原因：觉得课程无聊，和前文是递进关系，引出后文，其中的boring和后文的they don’t like it呼应。故选D。 3．前文“A third reason is they are anxious about doing assignments (作业) well enough. (第三个原因是他们急于把作业做得足够好。)”指出学生拖延的第三个原因：过于想很好地完成作业，因此G项“These students often worry that their work will never be as good as it should be and fear failure of any kind. (这些学生经常担心他们的作业永远不会达到应有的水平，害怕任何形式的失败。)”符合语境，描述这类学生的问题，承接前文。故选G。 4．前文“List things in life that are important to you. (列出生活中对你重要的事情。)”和“Choose realistic goals for yourself. (为自己选择现实的目标。)”建议根据自己所看重的事情而选择目标，后文“Budget your time wisely. (合理安排时间。)”给出安排时间的建议，因此B项“Once you have set your goals, list them in the first place. (一旦你设定了目标，就把它们列在第一位。)”符合语境，建议把目标安排在前面，承前启后，其中的goals在前文有同词复现。故选B。 5．前文“If you believe that you are a chronic (长期的) postponer, you should try to get help before it is too late. (如果你认为你是一个长期拖延者，你应该在为时已晚之前寻求帮助。)”建议长期拖延者及早寻求帮助，因此A项“Talk to a friend, and discuss the problem. (和朋友谈谈，讨论这个问题。)”符合语境，指出可以和朋友交谈，是一种寻求帮助的方法，承接前文。故选A。 2、 完形填空（24-25学年高二辽宁开学考试） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Some time ago, I decided to do a “Moonwalk Marathon” for charity.
