第一节 阅读下列短文,掌握其大意,然后从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中选出最佳选项。
A
A yes-person is normally someone who says “yes” to everything; a request, a job, an opportunity, or an event. Some people think that saying “yes” to everything comes with risks. Things are good at first but might go wrong later. But, for me, saying “yes” has brought chances rather than worries.
Here is a good example to show the power of saying “yes” and its effect on my life. My boss once asked me to give a speech to a large group of people. I had never done public speaking before but I knew that I speech just fine. My boss was so pleased that he trusted me with more important tasks since then.
Looking back on my work experiences I think about what would have happened if I had said “no” to some challenging tasks. Maybe I would never have made so much progress in my job. Saying “yes” has allowed me to move up at work, and I have grown from it.
Saying “yes” to something that you might be uncomfortable with, like a task that is outside your comfort zone, can have positive results. Sometimes, you just need to give it a try. Actually if you want to get anywhere in life, you can’ t be lazy and closed off. It’s really that simple.
6. Why do some people think saying “yes” to everything is risky?
A They will lose chances. B. They are lazy with work.
C. People may make more requests. D. Things might go wrong later.
7. The author succeeded in giving the speech because __________.
A. he pressed himself for the task B. he admitted his stress
C. he has interested in the topic D. he was trusted by his boss
8. What has saying “yes” brought to the author according to Paragraph 3?
A. More regrets. B. Personal growth. C. Bigger worries. D. Lifelong friendship.
9. The underlined part in Paragraph 4 can be best replaced by ___________.
A. pleasing B. important C. challenging D. dangerous
10. The author wrote the passage to __________.
A. inspire people to live a simple life B. tell people about his work experience
C. remind people of the risks of saying “yes” D. encourage people to say “yes” to challenges
B
Have you ever drawn pictures on your notebooks when you are siting in class? If so, your teacher might have told you to stop. Many people think doodling (胡写乱画) may stop you paying attention to what you are doing. But it might be just the opposite.
One study shows that doodling may help you remember things you hear. In 2009, researchers asked two groups of people to listen to a phone message. One group was encouraged to doodle, but the other was not. Neither group knew that they would be asked to remember information from the message. But the group that doodled remembered 29% more.
Other people suggest other uses for doodling. Jesse Prinz a professor who studies doodling, says it can help you think creatively. Walking away from a problem to draw might actually help you solve it. When you come back, you will have a fresh idea and get an answer more quickly.
An author named Sunni Brown wrote a book on doodling. She argues that doodling is a tool that can help people think. She admits that people see doodling as doing nothing but she wants to change that. In fact, she owns a business that helps companies improve management effectiveness through doodling.
Brown believes doodling is helpful because it includes more than one way of learning. You learn in four ways: seeing, hearing, reading and writing. The more ways you use, the better you learn. And when you doodle while listening to a lecture, you are using all four.
You might think that being good at drawing is important for doodling. But if the point of doodling is to help you think, then it does’t matter what the picture looks like. Even if you are not an artist, doodling can help you. So next time you need to focus, pick up a pen and doodle away.
11. What does the last sentence in Paragraph 1 suggest?
A. Drawing might be allowed in class. B. Drawing is the first step to doodle.
C. Doodling might help students focus. D. Doodling is popular with students
12. The underlined word “that” in Paragraph4 refers to the fact that __________
A. doodling can help people think B. Sunni Brown does business by doodling
C. people consider doodling as doing nothing D. Sunni Brown wrote a book about doodling
13. According to the last two paragraphs, doodling __________.
A. helps people become better learners B. is useless in listening to a lecture
C. requires very good drawing skills D. does not attract any artists
14. The purpose of the passage is to __________.
A. do research by doodling B. solve problems by doodling
C. help people learn how to doodle D. introduce the benefits of doodling
15. In which section of a newspaper can we probably find this passage?
A. Health. B. Education. C. Technology. D. Economy.

A new interactive (互动的)map shows which parts of the world have been hit hardest by climate change. The map, called ClimateEX, allows users to see how global warming (全球 变暖)influences temperature and rainfall across the Earth.
The map shows, in the UK, areas of eastern Scotland have been most influenced by climate change. In the US, the west coast has seen a rise in temperature and loss of rainfall. The map also shows that over the next 50 years parts of Wales and northeast England will see big changes to their climate.
Developed by a scientist at the University of Cincinnati, the map uses 50 years of public climate data from 50, 000 international weather stations around the Earth. It shows not only how the climate has changed, But also what will possibly happen by the year 2070.
According to the map, over the next 50 years Central America will be subject to terrible heat and rainfall. Papua New Guinea, southeastern China, the west coast of the US, Greenland and the Arctic are also easily influenced, most importantly for sea level change.
ClimateEX can also help users search for places where climate change may lead to extreme phenomena (现象)in the future. The user simply touches the place where storms are frequent at present on the map and then ClimateEX will show all the places where storms are likely to happen in 50 years.

Anger is a natural feeling that everyone experiences in life. Some researchers believe the first sound a baby makes when born could be a sign of anger. Anger may be the first feeling we have and respond to. It’s in many cases a perfectly healthy feeling. Anger can cause people to make very positive changes in their lives. Sometimes we have to be angry at injustice (不公正), at wrong doings, or even at nature, before we can do what needs to be done to correct wrongs or make things better. But of course, that is not how we usually think of anger.
Most people think of anger as a feeling we must keep under control. Children are sometimes sent to their rooms or punished for expressing anger in an uncontrolled way. Parents tell a child to control himself when the child shows anger. We may be angry with friends or at work, but we know it’s not right to show it. Very early in life, we learn that anger is something that must be controlled.
We learn this for a good reason. Uncontrolled anger can lead to fights, car accidents, bad relationships with others, unacceptable social behavior, and many other problems. However, many experts say that if one suppresses his anger, he may suffer serious mental and physical health problems. So what can we do to understand and calm this feeling?
One solution is to talk about it with someone we trust, for example, a good friend. We can also try to walk away from a situation that causes anger, ask a doctor for advice, or just exercise more in our daily life. And of course we may have many other methods. Whatever solution we choose, as long as we are trying to find the solution to the problem, we have already taken the first step in the right direction.
11. According to Paragraph 1, anger can _____.
A lead to justice B. keep us healthy
C. help us tell right from wrong D. help us make things better
12. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us?
A. We are taught to control anger. B. Anger appears early in life.
C. We shouldn’t get angry at work. D. Angry children should be punished.
13. The underlined word “suppresses” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to _____.
A. holds in B. takes in
C. expresses D. understands
14. Which of the following can help deal with anger?
A. Excellent physical health.
B. A talk with a close friend.
C. Some exercises given by teachers.
D. A good relationship with others.
15. What does the author think of anger?
A. Anger shown by children is unacceptable.
B. Anger leads to deadly mental and physical illnesses.
C Anger can be a healthy feeling and need be treated properly.

A
Parking has been a problem for drivers for a long time in Zhengzhou. The Transportation Department is mapping out a new plan for the city’s parking system. There are about 100 thousand cars on the road in Zhengzhou but only enough parking space to provide room for 15 percent of these vehicles. It is no wonder that local drivers get so worried trying to find a place to park.
The number of the private car owners is becoming lager and larger. In March, the city sent out 1,000 private car licenses, the highest number of licenses ever sent out in a month. Industry experts say this suggests that local people have a strong, active interest in buying cars.
By the year 2020, the number of cars in Zhengzhou will probably reach 200 thousand. If one parking lot is for each car, then a lot of parking space should be built for these vehicles. The center of Zhengzhou is most short of parking space. However, experts point out that simply building more parking lots in these areas is not practical and doesn’t solve the problem. The idea of “Park & Ride” system has been suggested. This means that underground train and city train should be developed quickly. Drivers can leave their vehicles in car parks nearby subway and bus stations and then they can ride public transport to go to the city center. Based on this idea, the city will cut down the number of parking lots in the city center and need higher parking fees (费用). But it will build more parking areas near main subway and bus stops.
1.The underlined phrase “mapping out” in the first paragraph means __________.
A.making B.arguing C.replying D.comparing
2.About __________ drivers can find places to park their cars in Zhengzhou now.
A.8,500 B.10,000 C.15,000 D.20,000

C.The city sent out less private licenses in March.
D.More and more people are going to buy cars.
4.According to the idea of a “Park & Ride” system, the city will __________.
A.send out more private car licenses

5.This passage is mainly about __________.

College isn’t for everyone. Earning a degree will improve the income potential, but high tuition is a deterrent for some. Some can’t afford it. Others choose not to continue their schooling for other reasons. But they can still find a good job without a college degree. ●Manufacturing Sales Reps
Average salary: $52,440 Current workforce: 1,430,000
Projected job growth, 2010-2020: 16%
Wholesale and manufacturing sales reps who specialize in non-technical products make 27% more than full-time workers. Unlike those salespeople, wholesale reps market their product directly to businesses and government agencies. The pay is good, the opportunities are numerous and, for most employers, a high school diploma is enough to get a job. ●Dry Wall Workers
Average salary: $45,490 Current workforce: 22,900
Projected job growth, 2010-2020: 27%
No high-school diploma? No problem. Dry wall workers are the only workers on our list who can expect good money and strong job growth without even finishing high school. Dry wall workers work in the construction industry, preparing walls for painting after masons(泥瓦匠)build them up. Most learn from more experienced workers during working. ●Electricians
Average salary: $48,250 Current workforce: 577,700
Projected job growth, 2010-2020: 23%
The world is more mechanized than ever before, and more machines mean more work for these skilled workers, who will see nearly 134 000 new jobs added by 2020. A typical electrician makes more than $48,000 per year with a high school degree. Major cities promise the most jobs.●Commercial Pilots
Average salary: $67,500 Current workforce: 32,700
Projected job growth, 2010-2020: 28%
An average commercial pilot makes $26,000 more than a typical full-time worker and $13,000 more than an average college-educated worker. It requires only a commercial pilot’s license and training at a local flight school. Times are changing -many airlines now look for pilots with two-year or four-year degrees—but prospects for salary and growth remain strong.
6.What’s the meaning of the underlined word “deterrent” in Paragraph 1?

To be a good teacher you need some of the gifts of a good actor; you must be able to hold the attention and interest of your audience; you must be a clear speaker with a good strong pleasing voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to act what you are teaching in order to make its meaning clear.
Watch a good teacher and you will see that he does not sit still before his class: he stands the whole time he is teaching; he walks about using his arms hands and fingers to help him in his explanations and his face to express feelings. Listen to him and you will hear the loudness the quality and the musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is talking about.
The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesn’t mean that he will indeed be able to act well on the stage for there are very important differences between the teacher’s work and the actor’s. The actor has to speak words which he has learnt by heart; he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem natural on the stage.
A good teacher works in quite a different way. His audience takes an active part in his play they ask and answer questions they obey orders and if they don’t understand something they say so. The teacher therefore has to meet the needs of his audience which is his class. He cannot learn his part by heart but must invent it as he goes along.
I have known many teachers who were fine actors in class but were unable to take part in a stage-play because they could not keep strictly to what another had written.
11.What is the text about?
A.How to become a good teacher.
B.What a good teacher should do outside the classroom.
C.What teachers and actors could learn from each other.
D.The similarities (相似处) and differences between a teacher’s work and an actor’s.
12.The word “audience” in the fourth paragraph means ________.
A.students B.people who watch a play
C.people who not on the stage D.people who listen to something
13.A good teacher _________.
A.knows how to hold the interest of his students B.must have a good voice
C.knows how to act on the stage D.stands or sits still while teaching
14.In what way is a teacher’s work different from an actor’s?
A.The teacher must learn everything by heart.
B.He knows how to control his voice better than an actor.
C.He has to deal with unexpected situations.
D.He has to use more facial expressions.
15.The main difference between students in class and a theatre audience is that _________.
A.students can move around in the classroom
B.students must keep silent while theatre audience needn’t
C.no memory work is needed for the students
D.the students must take part in their teachers’ plays

Experts’ research shows that nearly 25% of British people, including children, are overweight. The government is worried and it is looking for ways to solve the problem.
Many 11-14-year-old children already do cookery (烹饪) at school but from 2011, the government is making this compulsory(必修的). They hope that this will encourage people to cook instead of eating ready meals and fast food.

And schools are setting up cookery clubs called “Let’s Get Cooking” throughout the country. The clubs will give more children the chance to learn to cook after school.
Head Teachers worry about the equipment they will need for the lessons. About 15% of schools do not have kitchens and there are not enough cookery teachers.

The FIFA World Cup came to an end in December 2022. But the love for soccer is still very much alive and well in Zibo, Shandong Province. Zibo is called “the home of soccer ball”. It’s the birthplace of the ancient Chinese sport of cuju. In 2004, cuju won the recognition of FIFA — soccer’s governing body — as the earliest form of soccer.
The Chinese character cu means to kick. Ju means an ancient type of leather ball. It has feathers (羽毛) or grain chaff (谷糠) inside. The ancient Chinese historical text Zhan Guo Ce says cuju was a form of amusement among common people. But during the Han Dynasty, soldiers played cuju for army training. During the Tang Dynasty, women played cuju at the royal court (朝廷) for the amusement of the emperors. It entered the golden age in the Song Dynasty when it became popular among every class. Yet, the 2,000-year-old game slowly got out of people’s lives during the Ming Dynasty.
Li Weipeng, 34, from Linzi district of Zibo city, is a seventh-generation inheritor (传承人) of cuju. He has been practicing cuju skills for 18 years. Mastering different cuju skills is not easy. “At the beginning, I spent eight hours a day practicing juggling (颠球) a ball. It was tiring,” Li told China Daily. He now can juggle a ball with his foot over 10,000 times in a row.
Teaching students cuju moves is a part of Li’s job. The traditional Chinese sport cuju is now popular at primary and middle schools in Linzi. “Students show great interest in playing cuju. It encourages me to promote the ancient sport,” Li said.
26.Why is Zibo called “the home of soccer ball”?
A.Because cuju was born there. B.Because people there love soccer.
C.Because there is a branch of FIFA. D.Because modern soccer began there.
27.What is the main idea of Paragraph 2?
A.The way of making cuju. B.The development of cuju.
C.The value of cuju to the world. D.The popularity of cuju among the Chinese.
28.In the Ming Dynasty, cuju _______.

C.became popular among women D.slowly disappeared in people’s lives
29.Which of the following is true about Li Weipeng?
A.He is the only inheritor of cuju.
B.He thinks it easy to learn cuju skills.
C.He now practises cuju eight hours a day.
D.He passes down cuju skills to the younger generation.
30.What the best title for the passage?
