B [2015 •湖北八校高三第二次联考〗Imagine a house that keeps itself warm in the winter?time. Think of the savings in terms of fuel bills and unfriend?ly emissions. Such houses in fact exist, called "passive hou?ses". The concept of these highly energy-efficient buildings took root in the 1990s, before slowly consolidating as a niche construction (生态位构建)concept in the 2000s. Are passive houses now actively moving into the mainstream as sustain?able buildings?

For Brian McGarry, an economics lecturer who built a family house based on passive housing criteria in the Pyrenees this year, the arguments look convincing. As his first full winter in the low energy house draws in, we asked him to keep us informed. Do passive houses work?

I had never heard of a passive house in February 2012, when I purchased a plot of land. Nor did I expect that I would be persuaded to build a pre-constructed , custom-designed house based on energy-efficient passive house criteria. It promised to be easier and quicker to build, cheaper to run, and more comfortable to live in. The objective was to incor?porate the fundamental concepts of passive energy manage?ment into my project: an airtight and highly insulated build?ing envelope; large south-facing double or triple-glazed win?dows (if possible, filled with argon gas) that passively cap?ture the energy of the sun; a heat recovery ventilation(通风设备)system to provide fresh air; and a simple, low-cost heat?ing system consisting of a modern wood-burning stove, a bathroom heater and a portable radiator backup for when the sun doesn't shine and temperatures decline. No significant limitations were placed on the design, and it had excellent en?vironmental credentials (认证).Moreover, the cost was no more than a conventional build.

After six months in use, the house is proving to be both cheap to run and remarkably comfortable—staying cool in the hot summer was effortless, as long as the windows were shuttered or shaded from the sun. Now staying warm in the cold, high-altitude December climate also seems easy, so far.

Winter arrived in force in the Pyrenees in November, with abundant snowfalls and temperatures as low as minus 8° Celsius. Though early days, the house has responded well : the stove is lit during cold evenings but the portable radiator has not yet been needed. This type of construction seems not only to make economic and environmental sense, but to en?hance our quality of life, too.

5.We can learn from Paragraph 1  that passive houses

 A.     consume extra energy to keep warm in winter and cool in summer

B.     had been introduced for a decade before the birth of the theory

C.     appeal to both the self-builders and those constructors

D.     refer to a certain house comfortable, costly and also pleasing

6.Regarding the passive energy management, the houses have characteristics EXCEPT •

 A.     using south-facing windows to take in solar energy

B.     providing energy for taking a shower when it's rainy

C.     supplying fresh air with a special heat recovery system

D.     placing more demands and restrictions on the design

7. How did Brian McGarry find his self-built passive house? 

A. Very unaffordable.       B. Energy-consuming.

C. Comfortable to live in.      D. Awkward to use.

8. What is the writer's attitude towards the passive house?
A. Supportive.                B. Critical.

C.  Oppositive.               D. "Doubtful.

I grew up in Jamaica Plain, an urban community lo?cated on the outskirts (郊区)of Boston, Massachu?setts. My best friend Rose and I used to dream about raising a family of our own some day. We had it all planned out to live next door to one another.

Our dream remained alive through grade school, high school, and even beyond. Rose was my maid of honour when I got married in 1953 to the love of my life, Dick. Meanwhile, Dick longed to be an officer in the Marines and I fully supported his ambitions. T real?ized that he might be stationed far away from Jamaica Plain, but I told him I would relocate (重新安置)and adjust.

So, in 1955 Dick was stationed in Alaska and we relocated. Rose was sad to see me leave, but wished me the best of luck. Rose and I remained in touch for a few years via periodic phone calls but after a while we lost track of one another.

Now here I am at the doorstep to my 80th birthday and I received a random phone call on a Wednesday af?ternoon. "Hello?" I said. "Hi Natalie, it's Rose," the voice on the other end replied. "It's been so long. 1 don't know if you remember me, but we used to be best friends in Jamaica Plain when we were kids," she said.

We haven't seen each other yet, but we have spent countless hours on the phone catching up on 52 years of our lives. The interesting thing is that even after 52 years of separation our personalities and interests are still extremely similar.

Real friends have two things in common : a compat?ible (相容的)personality and a strong-willed character. The compatible personality is what makes the connec?tion begin between two people and a strong-willed char?acter at both ends is what maintains the connection. If those two ingredients are present in a friendship, the friendship is for real, and can thus sustain the tests of time and prolonged absence without faltering (动摇).

5.The writer had to leave her best friend because

A.she hoped to get more chances

B.she wanted to change her living situation

C.her husband was sent to another place

D.she had a quarrel with her best friend

6.When the writer was 80 years old, .

A.she and her best friend Rose met again

B.she and Rose got in touch again

C.she found she had nothing in common with Rose

D.she and Rose spent countless happy hours together

7.According to the writer, the reason why the friendship be-

tween her and Rose can last long is that       .

A.they often share their happy and sad moments with each other

B.their relationship is based on mutual trust

C.Rose is always there when she is in trouble

D.both of them have a compatible personality and a strong-willed character

8.Which can be the best title of the passage?

A.The story of two best friends

B.A friend in need is a friend indeed

C.The definition of a friendship

D.Ingredients in a friendship

Eating different coloured foods can keep you healthy, as well as change your mood and behaviour. Here is a list of colours, which can change your life.

Blue/Purple

Blue is considered to be peaceful and calm and it has the same effect on our health. The blue/purple colour in food is due primarily to their anthocyanins which are an?tioxidants (抗氧化剂)that are particularly heart-healthy and may help support healthy blood pressure. Out of all the blue and purple foods available, blueberries are considered to have the highest antioxidant level. An analysis of the latest data from the National Health and Nutrition Ex?amination Study found that people who eat purple and blue fruits and vegetables are at a reduced risk for high blood pressure and are less likely to be overweight.

A food and health expert says that blue and purple colour foods can prevent blood mass formation, and they also lower the risk of cancer.

Foods that contain blue and purple colours are: red?dish eggplant (especially the skin) , blueberries, black?berries, purple grapes, etc.

Green

We all know that we should eat green as green symbolizes nature. The green foods are rich in isothio-cyanates, which help resist cancer.

Dr Ashok Agarwal , a food and nutrition specialist , explains ,"They are excellent sources of folic acid, vitamin K, as well as carotene (胡萝卜素).Diets high in those above are associated with lowered blood pressure.,,

Foods that contain the green colour are : broccoli , cab?bages ,cucumbers, etc.

Red

Lycopene (番茄红素)in reddish fruits and vegetables is a powerful antioxidant that has been associated with a reduced risk of some cancers, and also provides protec?tion against heart attacks.

Dr Smith says, "Cooked tomato sauces are associ?ated with greater health benefits as compared with the uncooked version as the heating process allows lycopene to be more easily absorbed by the body. Obtaining the most benefit from food depends on proper selection, storage and cooking of the produce.,,

Foods that contain the red colour are: tomatoes and tomato products, watermelon, guava, red onions, red chili, red apples, red grapes, cherries, etc.

Orange

The orange foods are also rich in carotene, which is a particularly good antioxidant.  These foods are com?monly considered eyesight foods because they contain vi?tamin A.

Orange fruits and vegetables also play a part in pre?venting cancer, particularly the lung and stomach canc?er. Foods that contain the orange colour are- carrots, mangoes, sweet potatoes, pumpkins, etc.

1.The passage tries to tell us that .

A.colours mean a lot to people and their health

B.foods of different colours will have different ben?efits

C.eating foods with a colour must prevent diseases

D.what people should eat in their daily lives

2.All the colours mentioned in the passage have the function of .

A.lowering blood pressure

B.improving eyesight

C.preventing cancer

D.reducing the risk of heart disease

3.Which colour can help keep us thin according to the passage?

A.Purple.    B. Green.

C.Red. D. Orange.

4.It can be inferred from the passage that       .

A.all grapes help lower the risk of high blood pres?sure and cancer

B.lung cancer can be prevented by eating red-coloured foods

C.green-coloured foods contain a lot of vitamin A which is good for eye health

D.tomatoes should be eaten cooked so that we can benefit the most

I.阅读理解[2015 •江西新余一中高三第三次模拟]

  A scientist turns out to be able to see the future by offer?ing each of some four-year-olds a piece of candy and watching how he or she deals with it. Some children reach eagerly for the treat they see. Some last a few minutes before they give in. But others are determined to wait until the last moment.

By the time the children reach high school, something remarkable has happened. A survey found that those who as four-year-olds had enough self-control to hold out generally grew up to be more popular, adventurous, confident and de?pendable. The children who gave in to temptation early were more likely to be lonely, easily frustrated and inflexible(顽固的).

Actually , the ability to delay reward is a sign of emotion?al intelligence which doesn't show up on an IQ test.

The hardware of the brain and the software of the mind have long been scientists' concerns. But brain theory can't explain what we wonder about most, like the question why some people remain upbeat in the face of troubles that would sink, a less resistant soul.

Here comes the theory of Daniel Goleman, writer of Emotional Intelligence : when it comes to predicting people's success, brain ability as measured by IQ may actually matter less than the qualities of mind once thought of as "character".

EQ is not the opposite of IQ. What researchers have been trying to understand is how they work together; how one's ability to handle stress, for instance, affects the ability to concentrate and put intelligence to use. Among the ele?ments for success, researchers now generally agree that IQ counts for about 20 % ; the rest depends on everything from social class to luck.

While many researchers in this relatively new field are glad to see emotional issues finally taken seriously, some few fear EQ invites misuse.

1. The experiment with the four-year-olds makes it clear that

 A.     the age of 4 is a proper time for scientific experiments

B.     emotional intelligence won't show up until adolescence

C.     candy can be used to measure a person's emotional in?telligence

D.     the ability of self-control plays a role in personal suc?cess

2. Which of the following is TRUE about EQ and IQ accord?ing to the text?

A. Scientists are trying to discover the way in which EQ and IQ work together.

B. The higher a person's IQ is, the higher his or her EQ is.

C. Some people can be blessed with lots of both, but some with little of either.

D. There is no link between EQ and IQ.

 3. The underlined word " upbeat" in Paragraph 4 probably means "_________ ".

A. optimistic                           B. floating

C.  excited                             D. kind

4. What is most likely to be written in the paragraph that follows?

 A. Information about famous people with high EQ.

B. Some reasons why EQ is a relatively new field.

C. Examples showing the opposite voice about EQ.

D. Strong demand for basic emotional education.
