You smiled at him like a mother would at her own child. You showed warmth and your hugs were always on offer. After a day in class with you, Charlie would come home singing. Whenever I hear Do Your Ears Hang Low or see him stretching to the sky when singing about the days of the week, I will think of you. I didn’t tell you at the time, but I loved your morning song so much that I implemented it in my own class (I’m a teacher, too). When you saw I was troubled, you hugged me with your smile and I knew everything would be OK. You made parents feel as cared for as our children. In the short time I knew you; you taught me about the type of teacher I desire to be. You never seemed disturbed by the mountain of paperwork or impossible work-life balance that comes with the role. Instead, you appeared to embrace every minute. I can’t understand why you’ve been taken from us. Telling Charlie was one of the hardest things I’ve had to do. I’m not sure he fully understands, but he told me he loved you and has been asking whether your “robot powers” will work in heaven. A friend once told me white feathers are angels telling us that loved ones in heaven are well. On the first day collecting the children without you, a white feather floated through the sleet (雨夹雪). Watching the younger ones bounce and giggle as they tried to catch it was beautiful. I wish I had told you all of this when you were with us. I hope that you knew how you brought happiness to everyone you met and how loved you were. Goodbye, Dear Friend. 4. What does the underlined word “implemented” in Paragraph I probably mean? A. Put up with. B. Made use of. C. Thought highly of. D. Looked back on. 5. What can be inferred about parents from the passage? A. They find it hard to handle their kids. B. They need to sing songs before children. C. They find it necessary to hug the teachers. D. They need to feel the love and attention as well. 6. The writer mentioned “white feather” in Paragraph 4 mainly to________. A. inform us of someone’s death B. remind us it’s time for a snowball fight C. tell us the teacher stays in our mind after death D. warn us of the falling snow when collecting children 7. What’s the writer’s main purpose in writing this article? A. To take pity on her fellow teacher. B. To say goodbye to her fellow teacher. C. To make a remark on Charlie’s teacher. D. To recall and show respect for Charlie’s teacher. 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者作为一个家长的心声，在文章表达了自己对孩子老师的感激，尊敬和认可，也道出了这位逝去的老师的不舍与告别。 【4题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词前文“I didn’t tell you at the time, but I loved your morning song so much…(我当时没有告诉你，但我太喜欢你的晨歌了，所以……)”及后文“in my own class (I’m a teacher, too)(在我自己的课堂上（我也是老师）)”可知，已成为老师的作者把它用在了自己的课堂上。故可猜测划线单词implemented为“使用”的意思，和选项B项Made use of“利用”意思一致。故选B项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“When you saw I was troubled, you hugged me with your smile and I knew everything would be OK. You made parents feel as cared for as our children.(当你看到我的烦恼，你用你的微笑拥抱我，我知道一切都会好起来的。你让父母们感到和我们的孩子一样被关心。)”可知，从文章中我们可以推断出这位老师在家长们陷入麻烦时会提供无微不至的关怀，就像对待孩子们一样，所以说家长也是需要关爱的。故选D项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“I can’t understand why you’ve been taken from us. Telling Charlie was one of the hardest things I’ve had to do.( 我不明白为什么你要离开我们。告诉查理是我做过的最艰难的事之一。) ”提到这位老师已经去世，但是大家都十分不舍，结合第四段中“A friend once told me white feathers are angels telling us that loved ones in heaven are well.( 一位朋友曾经告诉我，白色羽毛是天使，告诉我们在天堂的亲人一切安好。)”可知，作者用天使的事例表达自己和孩子们对老师在天堂过得很好的期盼，语句中透露出大家对他的怀念。所以作者提到“白色羽毛”是为了告诉我们，老师去世后仍然还在我们心里。故选C项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章大意以及最后一段“I wish I had told you all of this when you were with us. I hope that you knew how you brought happiness to everyone you met and how loved you were. Goodbye, Dear Friend.( 我真希望你和我们在一起的时候我就把这些都告诉你了。我希望你知道你给你遇到的每一个人带来了快乐，你是多么的被爱。再见，亲爱的朋友。)”可知，全文都在表达着作者对孩子老师的尊重与怀念，并非“评论”“道别”或“遗憾”。也未提说这位老师是作者的同事，所以作者写本文的目的是回忆并表达对查理老师的尊重。故选D项。 C For more than a decade, a team of researchers have studied the dynamics of the Greenland Ice Sheet as it responds to a warming climate. But while much of their focus has been on waters impacts on ice sheet change, their most recent research findings have overturned the order of their thinking. Meierbachtol, Harper and their team discovered that changes in the ice sheet have a real impact on the massive groundwater system underlying Greenland. This latest discovery occurred thanks to a marriage of drilling techniques. International cooperators made an angled hole 650 meters through bedrock underneath a Greenland glacier (冰川)to measure groundwater conditions under the ice. Meanwhile, researchers drilled 32 holes from atop the glacier, through nearly a kilometer of ice, to measure water conditions at the area between ice and bedrock, which forms an important boundary controlling groundwater flow below. After drilling, the team fixed sensors in the ice column and at the ice sheet bed to measure ice dynamics and water conditions as water flows under the ice. “By studying areas covered by ice 10,000 years ago, we have known that the huge mass and vast amounts of water from melting ice can impact the underlying groundwater,” Meierbachtol said. “It’s generally accepted that the groundwater is sleeping over decades to centuries and its response to ice sheet change is long: thousands of years. But what we’ve shown here is that it is immediate.” This new understanding could have important subsequent effects on how Greenland’s thinning impacts the Arctic. The thinning ice could reduce the rate of groundwater flow to the ocean, changing the water temperature and salinity (盐度)balance that is important for ocean circulation (循环)patterns. “In thinking about the complex feedbacks from Greenland’s ongoing change, we have really ignored the groundwater component,” Harper said. 8. How do the researchers feel about the result of the recent study? A. Satisfied. B. Disappointed. C. Surprised. D. Doubtful. 9. What contributes most to the new research about the Greenland Ice Sheet? A. Fixing sensors into ice sheet. B. Close international cooperation. C. Advanced rock drilling technology. D. A combination of two drilling approaches. 10. What is a misunderstanding of the groundwater under glaciers? A. It has a very large volume. B. It is inactive for a long time. C. Its component is complex. D. Its temperature is changeable. 11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. Water Impacts the Greenland’s Ice Sheet B. Longlasting Effects of Global Warming on the Arctic C. Newly Discovered Groundwater Resources in Greenland D. Greenland’s Groundwater Changes with Thinning Ice Sheet 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了研究人员发现格陵兰岛地下的水系统受到冰盖变化的影响。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“But while much of their focus has been on waters impacts on ice sheet change, their most recent research findings have overturned the order of their thinking. (但是，尽管他们的大部分研究重点是水对冰盖变化的影响，但他们最近的研究发现推翻了他们的思维顺序。)” 可推断，研究人员对最近的研究结果感到惊讶。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“This latest discovery occurred thanks to a marriage of drilling techniques. (这一最新发现得益于钻探技术的结合。)”可知，对格陵兰冰盖的新研究贡献最大的是两种钻井方法的结合。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“It’s generally accepted that the groundwater is sleeping over decades to centuries and its response to ice sheet change is long: thousands of years. But what we’ve shown here is that it is immediate.” (人们普遍认为，地下水沉睡了几十年到几百年，它对冰盖变化的反应很长：几千年。但我们在这里展示的是，它是立竿见影的。)” 可知，人们对冰川下地下水的误解是:长时间处于不活跃状态。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Meierbachtol, Harper and their team discovered that changes in the ice sheet have a real impact on the massive groundwater system underlying Greenland.( Meierbachtol、Harper和他们的团队发现，冰盖的变化对格陵兰岛地下的巨大地下水系统有真正的影响。)”及全文可知，文章主要介绍了研究人员发现格陵兰岛地下的水系统受到冰盖变化的影响。所以“Greenland’s Groundwater Changes with Thinning Ice Sheet(格陵兰的地下水随着冰盖变薄而变化)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选D。 D Many people believe that working to the maximum is the secret to success, but research has found that moderation(适度) also gets results on the job. In a study led by Ellen Langer of Harvard University, researchers asked people to translate sentences into a new made-up language. Subjects who practiced the language moderately beforehand made fewer errors than those who practiced extensively or not at all. High levels of knowledge can make people too attached to traditional ways of viewing problems across fields the arts, sciences, and politics. High conscientiousness is related to lower job performance, especially in simple jobs where it doesn’t pay to be a perfectionist. How long we stay on the clock and how we spend that time are under careful examination in many workplaces. The young banker who eats lunch at his desk is probably seen as a go-getter, while his colleagues who chat over a relaxed conference-room meal get dirty looks from the corner office. “People from cultures that value relationships more than ours does are shocked by the thought of eating alone in front of a computer”, says Art Markman, a professor of psychology at the University of Texas, Austin. Social interaction has been shown to lift mood(情绪) and get people thinking in new directions and in ways that could help improve any post-lunch effort. Markman also promotes off-task time. “Part of being a good thinker is experiencing things that are seemingly unrelated to what you are working on at the moment but give you fresh ideas about your work,” he says. “Also, there is a lot of research showing that a positive mood leads to higher levels of productivity and creativity. So, when people do things to increase their life satisfaction, they also make themselves more effective at work.” 12. What does Ellen Langer’s study show? A. It is worthwhile to be a perfectionist B. Translation makes people knowledgeable. C. Simpler jobs require greater caution. D. Moderate effort produces the best result. 13. The underlined word “go-getter” in paragraph 3 refers to someone Who_______. A. is good at handling pressure B. works hard to become successful C. a has a natural talent for his job. D. gets on well with his co-workers 14. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. A good thinker is able to inspire other people. B. Experience unrelated to your job is useless. C. A cheerful mood helps make a creative mind. D. Focusing on what you do raises productivity. 15. What does the text seem to advocate? A. Middle-of-the-road work habits. B. Balance between work and family. C. Long-standing cultural traditions. D. Harmony in the work environment. 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了许多人认为工作到最大限度是成功的秘诀，但研究发现，适度的工作也会带来成果。所以要适度工作，工作时要有积极的情绪，这会让自己在工作中更有效率。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Many people believe that working to the maximum is the secret to success, but research has found that moderation(适度) also gets results on the job.(许多人认为工作到最大限度是成功的秘诀，但研究发现，适度的工作也会带来成果。)”和第二段中“In a study led by Ellen Langer of Harvard University, researchers asked people to translate sentences into a new a made-up language. Subjects who practiced the language moderately beforehand made fewer errors than those who practiced extensively or not at all.(在哈佛大学Ellen Langer领导的一项研究中，研究人员要求人们将句子翻译成一种新的虚构的语言。那些事先适度练习这门语言的受试者比那些全力练习或根本不练习的受试者犯的错误要少。)”可知，第一段提出主题，即适度的工作也会带来成果，接着第二段作者用Ellen Langer的研究来证明这一点，由此可推知，Ellen Langer的研究表明适度的努力会产生最好的结果。故选D。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词下文“while his colleagues who chat over a relaxed conference-room meal get dirty looks from the corner office.(而他那些在会议室吃饭时闲聊的同事们则在角落办公室里得到不屑的目光。)”可知，while前后是对比关系，那些在会议室吃饭时闲聊的同事会得到别人不屑的目光，即被认为不努力工作，相反，那些在办公桌前吃午饭的年轻银行家可能被视为是一个努力工作以求成功的人，由此可知，划线单词go-getter，指的是那些努力工作以求成功的人，故选B。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Also, there is a lot of research showing that a positive mood leads to higher levels of productivity and creativity.(此外，许多研究表明，积极的情绪能够提高生产力和创造力。 )”可知，积极的情绪能够提高生产力和创造力，由此可推知，愉快的心情有助于创造性思维。故选C。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“but research has found that moderation(适度) also gets results on the job.(但研究发现，适度的工作也会带来成果)”和第二段中“High conscientiousness is related to lower job performance, especially in simple jobs where it doesn’t pay to be a perfectionist.(高尽责性与低工作表现有关，尤其是在简单的工作中，追求完美并不值得。)”可知，文章主要介绍研究表明适度的工作也会带来成果，所以文章提倡适度工作，即中庸的工作习惯。故选A。 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Get the Most out of Every Book You Read Reading books can be one of life’s greatest pleasures and learning experiences.

What      【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了编钟的历史、发展和现状。 【36题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：编钟是一种由一组青铜钟组成的中国古代乐器。空处引导限定性定语从句，修饰先行词instrument，先行词指物，且关系词在定语从句中作主语，所以用关系代词which或that引导该从句。故填which或that。 【37题详解】 考查形容词。句意：目前最令人印象深刻的一套编钟是在湖北省曾侯乙墓中出土的65件编钟，其中最大的重达203.6公斤。空处需要形容词作定语，修饰后面的代词one。impress的形容词为impressive“令人印象深刻的”。故填impressive。 【38题详解】 考查动词时态。句意：目前最令人印象深刻的一套编钟是在湖北省曾侯乙墓中出土的65件编钟，其中最大的重达203.6公斤。空处为定语从句的谓语。句子陈述一般事实，所以用一般现在时态。主语为the largest (bell)，所以谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。故填weighs。 【39题详解】 考查动词语态。句意：编钟最早出现在商朝时期，当时将3到5个钟组合在一起用于演奏音乐。空处为时间状语从句的谓语动词。根据“in the Shang Dynasty”可知，句子为一般过去时态。主语3 to 5 bells和该动词之间为被动关系，所以用一般过去时态的被动语态。故填were put。 【40题详解】 考查介词。句意：当时，编钟形状独特，表面装饰有各种图案。固定搭配be decorated with“装饰着……”。故填with。 【41题详解】 考查副词。句意：在西周时期，8个钟一起演奏音乐，编钟被广泛用于皇家演出。空处需要副词，修饰后面的动词used作状语。故填widely。 【42题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：到了春秋末期，增加了更多的钟以形成一套完整的乐器。空处需要动词不定式作目的状语，表示“为了制作完整的一套乐器”。故填to make。 【43题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：秦汉之后，随着编钟形状的变化，大部分的钟都变成了圆形，而且每一个钟只发出一个音。本题考查with的复合结构，即“with+宾语+宾语补足语”，此处需要非谓语动词作宾语补足语，该动词和宾语之间为被动关系，所以用过去分词作宾补。故填transformed。 【44题详解】 考查名词。句意：500年后，编钟开始在流行度上有所下降。空处需要名词作介词 的宾语。popular的名词形式为popularity“流行”。故填popularity。 【45题详解】 考查主语从句。句意：令人鼓舞的是，现在有一些人正在利用技术改变这一状况，并将这种乐器介绍给更多的人。空处引导主语从句，从句中缺少主语，且表示“……的事情”，所以用连接代词what引导该从句。该词位于句首，首字母大写。故填What。 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节 (满分15分) 46. 假定你是李华，正在伦敦交流学习。你所在学校将举办寒假训练营，开设以下课程：烹饪，急救，游泳，篮球及足球。请你写一封申请信，报名参加其中一门课程的学习。内容包括： 1.你感兴趣的一门课程； 2.为什么想学这门课程； 3.你期望从中学到什么。 注意：1.写作词数应为80左右； 2.请按如下格式作答。 Dear Sir/ Madam, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours sincerely, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Sir/Madam, I am thrilled to learn that the school is offering a Winter Camp with courses like cooking, first-aid, swimming, basketball, and football.

Their effect may be for one day or a lifetime. Often, you don’t realize how much influence someone has made on you until a particular moment. The man who made a big influence on me was my father. Three months after turning fourteen, my life was great. I was getting settled into a high school; my grades were already getting better and I was making friends. One day, when I got back from school, I went to the sitting room and saw my parents having a conversation. They came up to me and asked me to take a seat, because they wanted to say something very important. I soon found out that my dad’s liver(肝脏) was failing and he needed an immediate transplant(器官移植). I was surprised and bewildered(不知所措的) because my father looked all right. He worked, and he didn’t seem ill. My parents said I shouldn’t be afraid, because it was going to be all right. Four months had gone by, and my father had yet to get a new liver. It looked as if his body was steadily worsening, but he kept saying, “Dear, everything will be just fine.” It was becoming difficult for me and my family. My father had to give up work, and my mother was the sole breadwinner(养家糊口的人). I had to bear the responsibilities of cleaning up the house making food, and looking after my father when my mother was at work. I had to limit my time with my friends, because my father started coming in and out of the hospital. My concentration on the subject was beginning to slip away. So were my grades. Two days before my school spring break, my mother got a phone call from the hospital, saying my father had an accident and was in hospital. What surprised me was that my father wasn’t injured at all. Then the next day, my mother got a phone call from the doctor saying that there was a liver that matched my dad’s body and that he needed to get to the hospital immediately. 注意： 1.续写词数应为 150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 My parents and I hurried to the hospital. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I had to take on so many responsibilities at home. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】My parents and I hurried to the hospital. My dad was taken to the operating room after all kinds of tests, leaving Mom and I waiting anxiously outside. Three hours’ waiting seemed like a life time during which my mother kept comforting me by saying, “Your dad said everything will be just fine!” When the door was pushed open and the doctor told us the good news, my mom burst into tears. Three weeks after that, my dad could leave the hospital, but he still needed extra attention at home, which I was responsible for, since my mom had to work outside every day. I had to take on so many responsibilities at home. Household chores and the care for my dad took up most of my day, leaving little time for my studies. Though I was tired out every day after attending to my dad, I still tried to squeeze out some precious time to make up for some missing lessons till late night. Every day my dad told me the same thing, “Dear, everything will be just fine!” After six months, my dad made a full recovery and I graduated with the best grades in four years. Time has stolen so much of our family’s happiness, but it’s still the most important.“Dear, everything will be just fine! 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者认为一个人的人生中会遇到很多影响他们的人，其中对作者影响最大的人是作者的父亲。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我和父母急忙赶到医院。”以及第二段首句内容“我不得不在家里承担很多责任。”可知，第一段可描写经过检查，父亲手术成功且出院回家。 ②由第二段首句内容“我不得不在家里承担很多责任。”可知，第二段可描写作者承担了更多的责任，同时也成长了。 2.续写线索：作者即将进入高中，一切都很顺利——然而，一天，作者得知自己的父亲肝脏衰竭需要接受移植手术——然而，一直都没有配型成功的肝脏——作者也开始焦虑，成绩也开始下降——突然，传来了好消息，作者的父亲可以接受手术了——手术成功了，但是后续的恢复需要作者一家更多的付出——作者的妈妈需要外出工作，照顾父亲的责任落在了作者身上——作者一边照顾父亲一边也开始真正长大 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①突然哭了起来：burst into tears/burst out crying ②占据：take up/occupy ③负责：be responsible for/take the responsibility for 情绪类 ①焦虑地：anxiously/with anxiety ②开心：happiness/joy 【点睛】【高分句型1】When the door was pushed open and the doctor told us the good news, my mom burst into tears.（运用了when引导的时间状语从句） 【高分句型2】Though I was tired out every day after attending to my dad, I still tried to squeeze out some precious time to make up for some missing lessons till late night.（运用了though引导的让步状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 沈阳市第120 中学 2024-2025 学年度上学期 高一年级第一次质量监测 英语试题 满分：150分时间：120分钟 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

B I was so worried about handing my little boy over during his first week of school, but you made it easier. You smiled at him like a mother would at her own child. You showed warmth and your hugs were always on offer. After a day in class with you, Charlie would come home singing. Whenever I hear Do Your Ears Hang Low or see him stretching to the sky when singing about the days of the week, I will think of you. I didn’t tell you at the time, but I loved your morning song so much that I implemented it in my own class (I’m a teacher, too). When you saw I was troubled, you hugged me with your smile and I knew everything would be OK. You made parents feel as cared for as our children. In the short time I knew you; you taught me about the type of teacher I desire to be. You never seemed disturbed by the mountain of paperwork or impossible work-life balance that comes with the role. Instead, you appeared to embrace every minute. I can’t understand why you’ve been taken from us. Telling Charlie was one of the hardest things I’ve had to do. I’m not sure he fully understands, but he told me he loved you and has been asking whether your “robot powers” will work in heaven. A friend once told me white feathers are angels telling us that loved ones in heaven are well. On the first day collecting the children without you, a white feather floated through the sleet (雨夹雪). Watching the younger ones bounce and giggle as they tried to catch it was beautiful. I wish I had told you all of this when you were with us. I hope that you knew how you brought happiness to everyone you met and how loved you were. Goodbye, Dear Friend. 4. What does the underlined word “implemented” in Paragraph I probably mean? A.

But while much of their focus has been on waters impacts on ice sheet change, their most recent research findings have overturned the order of their thinking. Meierbachtol, Harper and their team discovered that changes in the ice sheet have a real impact on the massive groundwater system underlying Greenland. This latest discovery occurred thanks to a marriage of drilling techniques. International cooperators made an angled hole 650 meters through bedrock underneath a Greenland glacier (冰川)to measure groundwater conditions under the ice. Meanwhile, researchers drilled 32 holes from atop the glacier, through nearly a kilometer of ice, to measure water conditions at the area between ice and bedrock, which forms an important boundary controlling groundwater flow below. After drilling, the team fixed sensors in the ice column and at the ice sheet bed to measure ice dynamics and water conditions as water flows under the ice. “By studying areas covered by ice 10,000 years ago, we have known that the huge mass and vast amounts of water from melting ice can impact the underlying groundwater,” Meierbachtol said. “It’s generally accepted that the groundwater is sleeping over decades to centuries and its response to ice sheet change is long: thousands of years. But what we’ve shown here is that it is immediate.” This new understanding could have important subsequent effects on how Greenland’s thinning impacts the Arctic. The thinning ice could reduce the rate of groundwater flow to the ocean, changing the water temperature and salinity (盐度)balance that is important for ocean circulation (循环)patterns. “In thinking about the complex feedbacks from Greenland’s ongoing change, we have really ignored the groundwater component,” Harper said. 8. How do the researchers feel about the result of the recent study? A. Satisfied. B. Disappointed. C. Surprised. D. Doubtful. 9. What contributes most to the new research about the Greenland Ice Sheet? A. Fixing sensors into ice sheet. B. Close international cooperation. C. Advanced rock drilling technology. D. A combination of two drilling approaches. 10. What is a misunderstanding of the groundwater under glaciers? A. It has a very large volume. B. It is inactive for a long time. C. Its component is complex. D. Its temperature is changeable. 11. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. Water Impacts the Greenland’s Ice Sheet B. Longlasting Effects of Global Warming on the Arctic C. Newly Discovered Groundwater Resources in Greenland D. Greenland’s Groundwater Changes with Thinning Ice Sheet D Many people believe that working to the maximum is the secret to success, but research has found that moderation(适度) also gets results on the job. In a study led by Ellen Langer of Harvard University, researchers asked people to translate sentences into a new made-up language. Subjects who practiced the language moderately beforehand made fewer errors than those who practiced extensively or not at all. High levels of knowledge can make people too attached to traditional ways of viewing problems across fields the arts, sciences, and politics. High conscientiousness is related to lower job performance, especially in simple jobs where it doesn’t pay to be a perfectionist. How long we stay on the clock and how we spend that time are under careful examination in many workplaces. The young banker who eats lunch at his desk is probably seen as a go-getter, while his colleagues who chat over a relaxed conference-room meal get dirty looks from the corner office. “People from cultures that value relationships more than ours does are shocked by the thought of eating alone in front of a computer”, says Art Markman, a professor of psychology at the University of Texas, Austin. Social interaction has been shown to lift mood(情绪) and get people thinking in new directions and in ways that could help improve any post-lunch effort. Markman also promotes off-task time. “Part of being a good thinker is experiencing things that are seemingly unrelated to what you are working on at the moment but give you fresh ideas about your work,” he says. “Also, there is a lot of research showing that a positive mood leads to higher levels of productivity and creativity. So, when people do things to increase their life satisfaction, they also make themselves more effective at work.” 12. What does Ellen Langer’s study show? A. It is worthwhile to be a perfectionist B. Translation makes people knowledgeable. C. Simpler jobs require greater caution. D. Moderate effort produces the best result. 13. The underlined word “go-getter” in paragraph 3 refers to someone Who_______. A. is good at handling pressure B. works hard to become successful C. a has a natural talent for his job. D. gets on well with his co-workers 14. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. A good thinker is able to inspire other people. B. Experience unrelated to your job is useless. C.

Their effect may be for one day or a lifetime. Often, you don’t realize how much influence someone has made on you until a particular moment. The man who made a big influence on me was my father. Three months after turning fourteen, my life was great. I was getting settled into a high school; my grades were already getting better and I was making friends. One day, when I got back from school, I went to the sitting room and saw my parents having a conversation. They came up to me and asked me to take a seat, because they wanted to say something very important. I soon found out that my dad’s liver(肝脏) was failing and he needed an immediate transplant(器官移植). I was surprised and bewildered(不知所措的) because my father looked all right. He worked, and he didn’t seem ill. My parents said I shouldn’t be afraid, because it was going to be all right. Four months had gone by, and my father had yet to get a new liver. It looked as if his body was steadily worsening, but he kept saying, “Dear, everything will be just fine.” It was becoming difficult for me and my family. My father had to give up work, and my mother was the sole breadwinner(养家糊口的人). I had to bear the responsibilities of cleaning up the house making food, and looking after my father when my mother was at work. I had to limit my time with my friends, because my father started coming in and out of the hospital. My concentration on the subject was beginning to slip away. So were my grades. Two days before my school spring break, my mother got a phone call from the hospital, saying my father had an accident and was in hospital. What surprised me was that my father wasn’t injured at all. Then the next day, my mother got a phone call from the doctor saying that there was a liver that matched my dad’s body and that he needed to get to the hospital immediately. 注意： 1.续写词数应为 150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 My parents and I hurried to the hospital. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I had to take on so many responsibilities at home. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
