【题目】It’s true that beauty does not always meet with a single, uniform standard. A person’s cultural background, for example, may influence ______ he or she find attractive in others.

A. that B. which

C. what D. when

【答案】C

【解析】考查宾语从句连接词。句意:的确,美并不总是符合单一的、统一的标准,例如,一个人的文化背景可能会影响到他或她在别人眼中的吸引力。influence缺少宾语,因此后面是一个宾语从句;宾语从句中的find也缺少宾语,因此连接词既作influence的宾语,也作从句中find的宾语,根据句意,用what正确。故选C。

The full moon climbs over the eastern horizon (地平线) and hangs like a huge orange globe in the sky. A few hours later, the moon is overhead but seems to have changed. The huge orange globe has become a small silver disk. What has happened? Why has the orange color disappeared? Why does the moon seem so much smaller and farther away now that it is overhead?
The moon appears orange on the horizon because we view it through the dust of the atmosphere. The overhead moon does not really shrink as it moves away from the horizon. Our eyes inform us that the overhead moon is farther away. But in this position the moon is actually closer to our eyes than when it is near the horizon.
The change in size is a trick our eyes and minds play on us. When the moon is low in the sky, we can compare its size with familiar objects. It is easy to see that the moon is much larger than trees or buildings, for example. When the moon is high in the sky, however, it is hard to compare it with objects on earth. Compared to the vastness of the sky, the moon seems small.
There is another reason why the moon seems to shrink. We are used to staring at objects straight ahead of us. When an object is difficult to see, our eyes have to try to focus on it. When we move our heads back to look up, we will try hard again. Looking at something from an unaccustomed position can fool you into believing an object is smaller or farther away than it is. However, scientists do not yet understand completely why the moon seems to shrink as it rises in the sky.
(1)What makes us puzzled when the moon is high in the sky?
A.It becomes large.
B.It looks different.
C.Its color disappears.
D.Its shape changes.
(2)What really happens when the moon floats farther away from the horizon?
A.It comes nearer.
B.It turns orange.
C.It goes farther.
D.It gets through dust.
(3)What does the author intend to suggest by mentioning trees and buildings in Para. 3?
A.They can affect our judgment.
B.They are low on earth.
C.They can attract our attention.
D.They are large objects.
(4)What can we infer from the text?
A.The size of the moon often changes.
B.The moon is in fact a huge orange globe.
C.The moon is beginning to shrink much.
D.We do not see the moon as it really is.

【题目】It’s inevitable for us to meet and contact with strangers. Also talking to strangers matters but how does it work? There are unwritten rules we tend to follow. The rules are very different depending on what country we’re in and what culture we’re in.

In most parts of the US, the baseline expectation in public is that we maintain a balance between politeness and privacy. This is known as civil inattention(礼貌性疏忽). So, imagine two people are walking towards each other on the street. They’ll glance or wave at each other from a distance. That’s the civility. And then as they get closer, they’ll look away, to give each other some space.

In other cultures, people go to extraordinary lengths not to interact at all. People from Denmark are unwilling to talk to strangers, and they would rather miss their stop on the bus than say “excuse me” to someone that they need to get around. They move the backpacks on purpose or use their bodies to say that they need to get past, instead of using two words.

In Egypt, it’s rude to ignore a stranger, and there’s a remarkable culture of hospitality. Strangers might ask each other for a sip of water. Or, if you ask someone for directions, they’re very likely to invite you home for coffee. We see these unwritten rules most clearly when they’re broken, or when you’re in a new place and you’re trying to figure out what the right thing to do is.

When you talk to strangers, you’re making beautiful interruptions into the expected narrative of your daily life and theirs. You’re making unexpected connections. If you don’t talk to strangers, you’re missing out on all of that. We spend a lot of time teaching our children about strangers. What would happen if we spent more time teaching ourselves? We could make a space for change.

1Which of the following can be regarded as civil inattention in most parts of the US?

A. Avoiding talking to strangers.

B. Glancing at each other anytime.

C. Greeting someone in the distance.

D. Inviting strangers home for coffee.

2How does a Dane get past on the bus?

A. By saying “excuse me” politely.

B. By tapping others on the shoulders.

C. By forcing his way through people.

D. By making a gesture.

3Why does the author advise making a space for change?

A. To let us create private space between strangers and us.

B. To let us show hospitality to strangers.

C. To let us make improvement on how to treat strangers.

D. To let us maintain a balance between politeness and privacy.

4What does the passage mainly talk about?

A. How to contact with strangers.

B. Different rules of treating strangers.

C. The meaning of civil inattention.

D. Making unexpected connections.

Matthew Youlden speaks nine languages fluently and understands more than a dozen more. When I told Matthew how I've been working hard to only pick up a second language, he had the following advice for me.
Know why you are doing it
This might sound easy , but if you don't have a good reason to learn a language, you are less likely to stay interested over the long-run. Wanting to get to know a French person in his or her own language is another matter entirely. No matter what your reason is, once you've decided on a language, it's important to carry out .

Matthew learned several languages together with his twin brother Michael. They learned their first foreign language, Greek, when they were only eight years old! Even if you can't get a sister or brother to join you on your language adventure, having any kind of partner will push both of you to always try just a little bit harder and stay with it.
Have fun with it
Think of some fun ways to practice your new language: make a radio play with a friend, draw a comic strip, write a poem, or simply talk to whomever you can. If you can't find a way to have fun with the new language, chances are you aren't following step four.
Act like a child
We learn by making mistakes. But as adults, mistakes become taboo(禁忌). Think how an adult is more likely to say, “I can't”, rather than, “I haven't learned that yet” (I can't swim, I can't drive, I can't speak Spanish). When it comes to learning a language, admitting that you don't know everything is the key to growth and freedom.
A. Find a partner
B. Leave your comfort place
C. We work in the same office in Berlin.
D. As kids, we are expected to make mistakes.
E. You are learning a language to be able to use it.
F. Using your new language in any way is a creative act.
G. Wanting to impress English-speakers with your French is not a very good reason.

Reasons Why Physical Education is Important in School
Are you looking for information about the importance of physical education in schools and why it should be emphasized? Do you want a healthy active lifestyle for your kids? Then this article can help you convince your kids that exercising and participation especially in school PE classes are important.
It's a link to good health.
It's only in physical education classrooms that students learn the value of taking care of themselves through proper healthy eating and regular exercise.
It's preventive measure against diseases.
Without any forms of diet management and control with the numerous processed foods students intake every day, a student's health can easily be at risk of many diseases. Physical education in schools is a preventive measure to teach students the value of regular exercise.

Physical health allows students to function even better in classrooms. A good cardiovascular(心血管的) system developing from regular exercise promotes excellent blood and oxygen circulation. This means more nutrients circulate throughout the body which includes the brain. This circulation produces longer attention time during classes allowing longer concentration and better absorption.
It builds self-esteem
Students who are active in physical activities like basketball, volleyball and running are more confident with themselves according to most social school studies. In school, the physical education program introduces these sport activities to students allowing them to make choices of which sport areas they want to get involved in.

Most physical education programs are holistic. The program allows students to interact together to a common goal, that is, to win and excel physically. It not only brings out the competitive sides of students working with both body and mind but also promotes sportsmanship.
It promotes a physically active lifestyle.
The purpose of physical education is to instill(逐渐灌输) in students, at an early age, the value of self-preservation and choosing a lifestyle that is good for both the mind and body.
A. Physical education plays a vital role in students' development and growth.
B. It's a program for muscle strength and fitness.
C. It's probably because of the dedication made to a sport that brings out the best in students.
D. It develops cooperation, teamwork and sportsmanship.
E. The value of physical fitness cannot be overstated too much.
F. It promotes academic learning.
G. Many doctors today agree that obesity is a serious health risk.

【题目】任务型阅读How to Improve Vocabulary Fast
Your vocabulary refers to the words in a language you are familiar with. We should learn some ways to expand it.
Read every day. Choose reading material that is slightly above your level and keep a dictionary with you to look up words you do not know.
If you do not meet with an unfamiliar word in your daily reading, use your dictionary to search for one.
Learn the correct definition and pronunciation for each new word. Pronunciation is as important as definition because in order to add a word to your active vocabulary, you must be able to use it in speech.
Elaborate(阐释)on the meaning of the word. Use imagery and personal relevance. If you have just learned that the word “stubborn” , think about the neighbor who will not lend you his car.
Use your new word in speech and in writing. E-mail your sister about how your cat is stubborn about sleeping on your pillow. But the more you use it, the more fluent you will become in its use. Soon it will be a regular part of your active vocabulary.
Tell everyone you are trying to increase your vocabulary. Encourage them to ask you what your latest word is .The more you explain the meaning of a word to someone, the more likely you are to remember it.
A. Or let them ask for the definition of a new word you have used.
B. Your vocabulary contains the words you understand.
C. The vocabulary can be increased.
D. Imagine him shaking his head, and think of him as “stubborn in his refusal”.
E. The first time you use a new word in speech it may seem strange.
F. Find a new word every day.
G. The more often you read, the faster your vocabulary can grow.
