Time talks. It speaks more plainly than words. Time 9 in many ways.

Consider the different parts of the day, for example. The time of the day when something is done can give a 10 meaning to the event. It is not a 11 to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you telephone him early in the day, 12 he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that something is urgent and 13 immediate at?tention.

The same meaning is 14 telephone calls made after 11:00 pm. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he may think it is a 15 of life and death. The time chosen for the call 16 its importance.

 In social life, time plays a very 17 part. In the Unit?ed States, guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the 18 to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date. But this is not 19 in all coun?tries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered fool?ish to make an appointment too far 20 because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be 21 .

The meaning of time 22 from place to place in the world.  23 , misunderstandings often arise between people from different cultures that 24 time differently. For ex?ample, promptness(准时)is 25 greatly in American life. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as 26 or not fully responsible. In the US, no one would think of keep?ing a business partner 27 for an hour; it would be too rude. A person who is five minutes late is 28 to make a short apology.

Tanzania Tarangire is a national park inTanzania. The park itself covers an area of around 2, 850 square kilometres, making it the sixth largest park of its kind in the country. I recently visited it to see what it was like.

One of the first sightings upon entering the park I found was a huge group of elephants. Our guide told us Tarangire was probably the best place inTanzaniato find large groups of elephants. We continued to watch the elephants as they stood under trees and scratched (搔)themselves against the trees to hit the spot of an itch(痒).

To the right of the elephant group, we noticed a big tree. Our guide informed us that this was a baobab tree and that Tarangire was one of the best national parks in Africa to see so many baobab trees.

As we continued our drive through the park, we finally reached a watering hole. Our guide warned us there were lions all around us. Most of them were rest?ing in the shade under bushes, but there was one that was drinking from the watering hole directly in front of us. We then noticed there were a couple of fresh zebra corpses (尸体)—-it seemed as if the resting lions had killed them !

Our final big sighting was one that none of us were expecting to see ! We pulled over to where there was a large gathering of cars, with a sleeping leopard there! We took photos happily and excitedly and observed its surprising body before returning to our hotel as it was getting late.

So I hope you enjoyed my description of Tarangire,

II.阅读七选五[2015 •吉林省实验中学高三四模]

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。

Health is the most important thing in the world. Noth?ing is more important than health. If we take away our mon?ey, houses, or even our clothes, we can still survive. 9 That is why we always try to eat in a healthy way and exer?cise regularly.

How can we keep healthy? In order to eat healthily, I usually avoid eating food high in fat, like French fries or cookies, which are junk food. 10  I eat a lot of vegetables and fresh fruits which are full of vitamins.

11 Taking exercise every day helps us build a strong body. Regular exercise is an important part of keeping us healthy.      

What's more, I think friends are an important part of one's health. 12 I always feel better when I am with friends than I am alone. When I am with friends, I always laugh. Laughing is also an important part of health. It's good to stay with my friends.

By eating properly and exercising regularly, I can keep my mind as well as my body happy. These things sound easy to do, but not many people can manage them. 13

A.     On the other hand, doing exercise is very important.

B.     There are some people who like staying alone, but they keep healthy.

C.     Many students show that people with a wide range of so?cial contacts don't get sick.

D.     But if our health was taken away, it is certain that we would surely die.

E.     I think a strong will is necessary if we want to keep healthy.

F.      I only eat little meat.

G.     Some people appear fat because they often eat too much.

I.阅读理解

A [2015 .江淮名校高三第二次联考] People laugh and people cry. But it is thought that emo?tions such as anger, or joy, typically make Americans feel uncomfortable and embarrassed. The shedder of tears (落泪者)is likely to apologize, even when a great tragedy was the cause. The observer of tears is likely to do everything possible to put an end to the emotional tears. But judging from recent studies of crying behaviour, both those responses to tears are often inappropriate and may even be counterproductive (适得其反).

Humans are the only animals clearly known to shed emo?tional tears. Since evolution has given rise to few purposeless physiological responses, it is logical to assume that crying has one or more functions that increase survival.

Although some observers have suggested that crying is a way to ask for assistance from others (as a crying baby might from its mother) , the shedding of tears is hardly necessary to get help. Vocal(有声的)cries would have been quite enough, more likely than tears to gain attention. So, it appears that there must be something special about tears themselves.

Indeed, the new studies suggest that emotional tears may play a direct role in easing stress. University of Minneso?ta researchers who are studying the chemical composition of tears have recently separated two important chemicals from emotional tears. Both chemicals are found only in tears that are shed in response to emotion. Tears shed because of expo?sure to cutting onions would contain no such substance.

Other researchers are looking into the usefulness of tears as a means of diagnosing human ills and monitoring drugs. At Tulane University's Tear Analysis Laboratory Dr Peter Kastl and his colleagues report that they can use tears to detect drug abuse, to study the causes of "dry eye" syndrome(综合征)and the effects of eye surgery, and perhaps even to meas?ure exposure to environmental pollutants.

1.  What does the phrase " both those responses" in Para?graph 1 refer to ?

A.    Crying out of sorrow and shedding tears for happi?ness.

B.     The embarrassment and unpleasant feelings of the ob?servers.

C.     Linking illness with crying and finding the chemical composition of tears.

D.    丁he tear shedder's apology and the observer's effort to stop the crying.

 2. It is known from the first paragraph that .

 A.     shedding tears gives unpleasant feelings to Americans

B.     crying may often result in tragedy

C.     crying usually wins sympathy from other people

D.     one who sheds tears in public will be blamed

3.What does the author say about crying?

 A.     It is a pointless physiological response to the environ?ment.

B.     It must have a role to play in man's survival.

C.     It is meant to get attention and assistance.

D.     It usually produces the desired effect.

4. From the passage we can infer that .

 A.     it is unnatural for people to shed tears

B.     we can reduce our stress by shedding emotional tears

C.     shedders of tears can't get help by crying loudly

D.     unlike animals, humans can shed tears for survival

Let's pretend we're sailing down the Rhine River on a pleasure boat. The Rhine is one of the main water?ways ofGermany, and the river traffic is heavy. It's in?teresting to watch many boats going up and down the river. But the river traffic is not nearly so interesting as the beautiful scenery along the banks and hillsides. The boat is passing many old castles. We can see people working in the vineyards (葡萄园)on the hillsides. There are vineyards as far as the eye can see. Wine from the Rhine Valley is famous all over the world.

Suddenly our boat slows down and begins to turn a little. We are coming to a sharp bend in the river. On our right we can see a rocky cliff over 400 feet high. At first it looks quite ordinary, but there is nothing ordina?ry about it. There are many stories, poems, and songs about the cliff. We are looking at the Lorelei.

Then someone on the boat begins to sing in Ger?man* the song of the Lorelei. It is a song about a beau?tiful siren (美女)who has lured many sailors to their deaths.

The siren is supposed to sit on the rock combing her long golden hair and singing. The sailors who hear her song forget to steer, and the current of river hurls their boats on the rocks and dashes them to pieces.

Soon other people on the boat begin to sing. The beautiful song adds to special magic to the moment, and you begin to realize why so many people have made this trip down the Rhine to see the rock of the Lorelei. 1.
