I keep two reference books close-by on my desk:dictionary and thesaurus(同义词词典).Idon'ttrust my laptop's spellchecker.2Of course,these days there are plenty of online dictionaries and thesauruses, but I'm old-fashioned enough to prefer a hard cover and pages I can leaf through with my fingers.I use the Concise Ox ford Dictionary and the Collins Thesaurus. 3 It should give you a precise definition of each word,thus differentiating it from other words whose meanings are similar,but not identical.It will also usually show how the word is pronounced. In addition,I have an old two-volume copy of the Shorter Oxford Dictionary,picked up a few years ago in a bookshop sale for just 99 pence. Of course,with its 2,672 pages,it's not exactly short.It contains around 163,000 words,plus word combinations and idiomatic phrases.4 However,if I need to check the origin of a word or to look up examples of its usage,there's nothing better. For well over a hundred years the most influential English dictionary was Samuel Johnson's Dictionary of the English Language published in l755.“To make dictionaries is dull(乏味)work,”wrote Johnson, illustrating one definition of "dull".5 A few minutes spent casting your eye over a page or two can be a rewarding experience. A.I don't often use this dictionary. B.It takes no account of the context. C.But I still don't want to replace them. D.But a dictionary can be a pleasure to read. E.Of course,a dictionary is not only for spelling. F.That means good grammar and no spelling mistakes. G.Dictionaries don't always give you enough information. B When selecting a school,it's important to consider various standards to find the college that best suits you.Here are some ideas to get you started. ●6 Depending on how you performed in high school,you may want to apply to schools with higher or lower admission rates.If you did well in everything in your academic history,you have a better chance for acceptance at the schools with lower admission rates.On the other hand,if your academic history is less than perfect,make sure you apply to some schools that have a higher admission rate,just in case. ●Freshmen retention(保留)rate. The freshmen retention rate explains what percentage of freshmen return for their sophomore (year.A high retention rate indicates overall student satisfaction with their first year experience at that school.7 OCourse availability. There are many advertisements for schools that provide night and weekend courses.Depending on your availability,you may need to choose a school that has those options.These types of schools make it possible for those who must work full-time jobs to get an education.8 ●On-campus living. Student life begins and ends in dorm rooms.9 Therefore,look for the schools that have a high percentage of on-campus living. OJobs right out of school. If you worry about finding a job when you finish school,consider the percentage of students who receive a job right after graduation.10 These programmes help their students make the transition from student to employee,and help them find jobs after graduation. A.Admission rate. B.Academic resources. C.Some schools have excellent job placement programmes. D.It also indicates that few students failed their first year. 高考总复习·周测阶梯卷·英语（九）P9一1 E.If you want an active student life,you need to live with other students. F.Students can accumulate work experience through part-time jobs and activities. G.Taking classes at night or online is an excellent way to earn a graduate degree. C People disagree about meaningful and small matters on a daily basis. Sometimes you know if you speak your mind you will upset someone. However,you often must express your opinion even if you know others will disagree.By choosing your words carefully you can avoid a long-term offense(冒犯). ·Ask people about their perspective(观点).Before being honest about how you feel,it's important to know their perspective.This gives you a chance to show genuine interest and have a conversation.11 They may even end their explanation with a request to hear your perspective. Put yourself in their shoes.One of the simplest ways to avoid hurting feelings is to imagine how they will respond to your statements. 12 Practise imagining how they view their own opinion and yours.Just because their perspective is different doesn't mean it's wrong. 13 Be careful with your honesty.You want to speak the truth in kindness.That means avoiding obvious disapproving behaviours such as making a face or making fun of their ideas. Be polite in your responses.Whenever you try to avoid hurting others it is best to speak with kindness.Common gestures of kindness go a long way.14 This situation isn't all about you speaking your mind.It's about them feeling valued. Express your perspective as opinion,not fact.Even if you know the facts back you up,this shows you value their perspective.If they have an open mind,facts will change their perspective.If they do not have an open mind,facts will feel like personal attacks.They have a right to be incorrect.15 A.Control your words and body language. B.If they said that to you,would you be upset? C.Use facts and try to avoid letting your emotions run high. D.Let them come to the truth on their own terms,not yours. E.Body language is a very powerful tool of a communication. F.They convey respect and show that you value the other person. G.This may also give you opportunities to speak up and be honest. D A food allergy (is a medical condition that occurs when the body's protection system perceives certain foods as a threat and responds to them with an allergic reaction. Symptoms(症状)of a food allergy 16 However,a severe reaction can take up to a few hours following exposure.Symptoms can range from mild to severe.And they may differ each time a specific allergen appears.Symptoms can include:a skin rash or hives,swelling of the face or lips,or feeling lightheaded or dizzy.17 That can send the body into shock or make it difficult to breathe. Judging a food allergy Doctors consider a number of factors when investigating a food allergy. Those include both a patient's symptoms and family history of allergies.A physical examination may be performed to rule out any other conditions. 18 Treating a food allergy It may not be possible for a patient to completely avoid foods that induce()an allergic reaction.For minor reactions,you can take some medicine.For severe reactions,however,turn to doctors for help. 19 The only sure way to prevent an allergic reaction to food is to carefully avoid the allergens.This can be a difficult process.That requires patients to carefully study food labels to ensure the food is safe for them.20 So it's necessary to inform family or friends of the food that can cause a food allergy. A.Avoiding harm from allergy. B.Preventing an allergic reaction. C.Not everyone knows what a food allergy is. D.But many people don't know the allergens. E.Other tests can include blood test or oral food challenge. F.An allergic reaction to food usually occurs within minutes. G.For some people,certain allergens can bring a severe reaction. E Recent years have been terrible for many businesses,but the movie business has been hit especially hard.As a result of the coronavirus, cinemas are facing a double-hit:Few viewers and no new movies.21 First the viewers disappeared.As the pandemic struck,a lot of theaters around the world were closed down for months.Movie makers began to delay the release of new movies,since there were very few places where movies could be shown.Social distancing is needed to keep people from spreading the coronavirus.22 Without big audiences,movie studios don't want to release new movies. Studios spend massive amounts of money to produce movies.They count on huge sales of movie theater seats to earn that money back.This summer,many people were closely watching the release of the movie Tenet by Christopher Nolan.The movie was expected to be a big hit and encourage lots of people to go back to the cinema.23 So far,the movie has earned very little,compared with big hits from other years.Other studios have learned from Tenet's experience,and are deciding to delay the release of their movies. 24 Most movie theaters have to pay a lot of money for rent.They also need to pay their workers.As a result of CineWorld's theaters closing, up to 45,000 people could lose their jobs.For now,two other big US theater chains-AMC and Cinemark-have about 80%of their theaters open and say that they plan to stay open.25 A.It costs a lot of money to run a cinema. B.Now cinemas haven't re-opened in many places. C.Each side of the problem only makes the other side worse. D.But it definitely didn't bring people racing to movie theaters. E.No movie has ever been released in a situation like this before. F.Therefore,few people are eager to sit in a closed cinema with lots of other people. G.But both companies are now only earning about 1%of the money they made last year. 内 Buying a new car is challenging.This is not surprising.A car is the second-most expensive purchase most people will ever make-after a home. 26 Consumers should adopt long-term thinking.When doing car 高考总复习·周测阶梯卷·英语（九）P9一2 shopping,consumers are frequently looking to solve an immediate problem: Their car is breaking down,and they should buy a car immediately.27 But,since a car is such a big purchase,it's important to think about it from a long-term perspective(t视角).“What works today may not be the best option for a few years down the line.So if you are considering starting a family in the future,you probably don't want to be buying a two-seat sports car,”Degen says. 28 Degen notes that consumers often only focus on the sticker price(定价)of the car and don't account for other key factors.“I think a surprising thing for a lot of car shoppers is,in the long run,a car that costs more initially may actually be less expensive to own over the years.This is because it might be more fuel efficient and might be easier to insure."29 The monthly payment isn't everything.Many car shoppers are on a budget and want their purchase to hit a certain monthly target.The problem here is that dealers can readily manipulate (pricing and especially financing to achieve this target.30 "If you go into a dealership and you give out a number for what you want your monthly payment to be,they might be able to get you to that number,but it might be a loan that's longer than you should really take out,Degen says."So, again,you really want to focus on the whole cost of the car and not just nailing a number.Don't concentrate just on the monthly payment. A.But this may result in other long-term issues. B.Long-term thinking applies to the vehicle cost as well. C.This often causes them to solve the problem right away. D.Consumers should have a quick mind in buying a car. E.It's important to use tools that analyze the total cost of owning the car. F.So Matt Degen,KBB's senior editor gives tips on buying a new car. G.Therefore,it's of great importance to set a target before a car shopping. 选择题答题栏 题号 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 答案 题号 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 答案 题号 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 答案(九) 题号 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 答案 F B E A D A D G E C G B A 分 D 题号 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 答案 F G E B D C F D G F C B E A 【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了作者使用英语词典的经验和心得以及从中获得的乐趣。 1.【答案】F 【解析】上文“If you want to be published,it's vital to submit a perfect,professionally presented manuscript.
