                             Yours, Li Hua

V.  书面表达

One possible version : Dear Editor,

I am writing to you to talk about the heavy traffic. Nowadays* people in many big cities are complaining about the heavy traffic. It has seriously influenced people's daily life and the economic develop?ment. To solve the problem, I'd like to put forward some pieces of advice.

For one thing, more streets and roads should be built. In this way, we can speed up the flow of buses and cars. For another, the number of bikes and cars should be limited, which can decrease the traffic flow. But the most important thing is that the number of pri?vate cars should be put under control. Meanwhile, buses should have their own special routes which cannot be used by other vehicles. Be?sides t underground train and city train should be developed quickly.

I do hope my suggestions will be taken.

Yours, Li Hua

B [2015 .山东潍坊高三一模]

Shake Shack is a new kind of restaurant becoming more popular in the US. The restaurants' dishes are not "fast food". They are known as "fast casual".

  Observers say Americans want more choices and fresh food when choosing where and what to eat. This trend is one reason why the fast food restaurant McDonald's has struggled financially. In the last quarter of 2014, McDonald's net in?come dropped by about $ 300 million. 丁he January earnings report brought more bad news. Worldwide sales dropped for the eighth month in a row and even more than expected. While McDonald's is struggling to get its customers back. Shake Shack is doing well in making money. The New York-based burger chain had a very successful IPO, or initial public offering, of shares at the end of January. On its first day of trading, Shake Shack went from $ 21 a share to just under $ 46 a share. Being part of the "fast casual" trend has helped Shake Shack. Other fast casual restaurants in the US include Chipotle and Panera.

Bonnie Riggs, a restaurant expert with NPD has studied Americans' restaurant habits for almost 30 years. She says one reason why Americans like fast casual food is that it's new. It is creative, it is something different and people like to try new things. Her study shows Americans made 61 billion visits to restaurants last year. Three out of four visits were to fast food restaurants, like McDonald's. Fast casual is still a small percentage of restaurant visits, but it has developed fast. Just as Ms Riggs says, "It's growing by leaps and bounds , because it meets consumers' needs. They know it's being prepared while they wait and that it's fresh, quality and good-tasting food at reasonable and affordable prices."

Many Americans still like their fast food. They just are not going as often. They are finding other ways to have a meal.

4.  What is the trouble with McDonald's?

 

A.     Its share goes down to $ 21.

B.     Shake Shack has taken its place.

C.     It's not popular with Americans.

D.     Its sales and income have dropped.

5. We can learn from Bonnie Riggs that Americans____________ .

 

A.     like to try something new

B.     care only about the quality

C.     don't like fast food any more

D.     pay more restaurant visits to fast casual

6. What does the underlined phrase "by leaps and bounds" in Paragraph 3 mean?

A. Steadily.                              B. Rapidly.

C. Slowly.                                 D. Normally.

 7.  Which of the following best describes fast casual?

 

A.    Fresh-made and tasty.

B.    High-quality and expensive.

C.    Farm-to-table and traditional.

  D.   Time-consuming and special.

B [2015 •齐鲁19所名校高三调研】

Can you believe your eyes? A recent experiment sug?gests that the answer to that question may depend on your age.

Martin Doherty , a psychologist at the University of Stirling in Scotland,led the team of scientists. In this experi?ment, Doherty and his team tested the perception(观察力〉of some people, using pictures of some orange circles. The re?searchers showed the same pictures to two groups of people. The first group included 151 children aged 4 to 10, and the second group included 24 adults aged 18 to 25.

The first group of pictures showed two orange circles alone on a white background. One of the circles was larger than the other, and these people were asked to identify the larger one. Four-year-olds identified the correct circle 79 per cent of the time. Adults identified the correct circle 95 per cent of the time.

Next,both groups were shown pictures where the orange circles,again of different sizes, were surrounded by grey cir?cles. Here's where the trick lies. In some of the pictures, the smaller orange circle was surrounded by even smaller grey circles—making the orange circle appear larger than the other orange circle, which was the real larger one. And the larger orange circle was surrounded by even bigger grey circles―so it appeared to be smaller than the real smaller orange circle.

 When young children aged 4 to 6 looked at these tricky pictures ?they weren't fooled―they were still able to find the bigger circle with roughly the same accuracy as before. Older children and adults, on the other hand, did not do as well. Older children often identified the smaller circle as the larger one,and adults got it wrong most of the time.

As children get older,Doherty said,their brains may de?velop the ability to identify visual context. In other words, they will begin to process the whole picture at once : the tricky

grey circles,as well as the orange circle in the middle. As a result,they're more likely to fall for this kind of visual trick.

5.Doherty and his team of scientists did an experiment to evaluate .

 

A.     children's and adults' eyesight

B.     people's ability to see accurately

C.     children's and adults' brains

D.     the influence of people's age

6.When asked to find the larger circle, .

 

A.     children at 6 got it wrong 79 % of the time with no grey ones around

B.     only adults over 1.8 got it right 95% of the time with grey ones around

C.     children at 4 got it right about 79% of the time with grey ones around

D.     adults got it right most of the time with grey ones around

7.According to the passage, we can know that .

 

A.     a smaller orange circle appears bigger on a white back?ground

B.     an orange circle appears bigger than a grey one of the same size

C.     a circle surrounded by other circles looks bigger than its real size

D.     a circle surrounded by bigger ones looks smaller than its real size

8.Why aren't younger children fooled?

 

A.     Because they are smarter than older children and adults.

B.     Because older people are influenced by their experi?ence.

C.     Because people's eyes become weaker as they grow older.

D.     Because their brains can hardly notice related things together.

B [2015 •安徽合肥第二次质裣〗Why do people feel so rushed? Part of this is a perception (感知)problem. Generally, people in rich countries have more free time than they used to. This is particularly true in Europe, but even in America free time has been inching up. Women's paid work has risen a lot over this period,but their time in unpaid work, like cooking and cleaning, has fallen even more significantly, thanks in part to dishwashers, wash?ing machines and microwaves, and also to the fact that men shift themselves a little more around the house than they used to.

   The problem, then, is less how much time people have than how they see it. Ever since a clock was first used at a workplace to record labour hours in the 18th century, time has been understood in relation to money. Once hours are fi?nancially quantified (量 化), people worry more about wast?ing, but tend to save or use them more profitably. When economies grow and incomes rise, everyone's time becomes more valuable. And the more valuable something becomes, the rarer it seems.

Once seeing their time in terms of money, people often grow stingy with the former to maximize the latter. Workers who are paid by the hour volunteer less of their time and tend to feel more upset when they are not working.

The relationship between time, money and anxiety is something Gary S. Becker noticed in America's post-war boom years. "If anything, time is used more carefully today than a century ago?" he noted in 1965. He found that when people are paid more to work? they tend to work longer hours, because working becomes a more profitable use of time. So the rising value of work time puts pressure on all time. Leisure time starts to seem more stressful, as people are forced to use it wisely or not at all.

5.Women's time in unpaid work has fallen partly because

 A.  men's ability to support their families has been im?proved

B.   men's involvement in housework has increased

C.   women's leisure time was taken up by heavy house?work

D.  women become more skilled at household equipment

6. From the second paragraph, we learn that .

 A. labour hours were recorded with a clock

B. people haven't realized the value of time

C. more work hours bring in more money

D.  the rise of incomes makes time less valuable

7.The underlined phrase "grow stingy with" in Paragraph 3
can probably be replaced by "___________

 A.     refuse to delay

B.     intend to kill

C.     try to accumulate

D.     hesitate to spend

8. According to Gary Becker, what causes people feel anx?ious about time?

 A.     The wrong way of time being spent.

B.     People's willingness to work hard.

C.     The increasing value of work time.

D.     More and more leisure time.

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Everyone knows that the Frenchmen are romantic. the Italians are fashionable and the Germans are seri?ous. Are these just stereotypes or is there really such a thing as national character? ―9_

At least one group of people are certain that it can. A recent survey of the top 500 entrepreneurs(企业家)in the UK found that 70% felt that their efforts were not appreciated by the British public. Britain is hostile(敌意的)to success, they said. It has a culture of jealousy(嫉妒). 10 Jealousy is sometimes known as the "green-eyed monster" and the UK is its home.

Scientists at Warwich University in the UK re?cently tested this idea. They gathered a group of people together and gave each an imaginary amount of money.

11 Those given a little were given the chance to de?stroy the large amount of money given to others―but at the cost of losing their own. Two thirds of the people tested agreed to do this.

12 . But there is also opposite evidence. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Develop?ment recently reported that the UK is now the world's fourth largest economy. People in the UK also work longer hours than anyone else in Europe. So the British people are not lazy, either.

Perhaps it is the entrepreneurs who are the prob?lem. They set out to do things in their way. They work long hours. By their own efforts they become million?aires. 13 . It hardly seems worth following their ex?amples. If they were more friendly* people would like them more. And more people want to be like them.

A. This test seems to prove that the entrepreneurs were right to complain.

B. The one who owns the most money in the end is the winner.

C. As a result, the survey said, entrepreneurs were "unloved, unwanted and misunderstood".

D. And if there is, can it affect how a nation succeed or fail?

E. Some were given a little, others a great deal.

F. But instead of being happy they complain that no?body loves them. ,

G. It is not true that British people are born jealous of others' success.
