Ⅰ.阅读理解
[20·石家庄市高三联考]When we learn to drive, we need to learn basic skills such as how to switch on the engine, turn on the wipers, operate the brakes, etc. before we actually take to the road. Once the lower order operations and skills listed above have been automatized or at least routinized to the extent that we do not have to pay attention to them (by?pass Working Memory's attentional systems), we can actually be safe in the assumption that we can wholly focus on the higher order skills which will allow us to take the split seconds decisions that will prevent us from getting lost, clash with other cars, break the traffic laws while dealing with our children messing about in the back seats.
This is what the brain does, too, when learning languages. Because Working Memory has a very limited space available when performing any task, the brain has learnt to automatize lower order skills so that, by being performed “subconsciously” they free up cognitive(认知)space. So, for instance, if I am an advanced speaker who has routinized accurate pronunciation, grammar and syntax to a fairly high degree, I will be able to devote more conscious attention (Working Memory space) to the message I want to put across.On the other hand, if I still struggle with pronunciation, word order, irregular verb forms and tenses most of my attention will be taken up by the mechanics of what I want to say, rather than the meaning; this will slow me down and limit my ability to think through what I want to say due to cognitive overload.
In language teaching this important principle translates as follows: in order to enable our students to focus on the higher order skills involved in comprehension and production we need to ensure that the lower?order ones have been acquired or performance will be reduced.
1．What does Paragraph 1 mainly tell us?
A．We should improve our driving skills on the road.
B．Our basic driving will be better as time goes on and on.
C．Only by mastering driving skills can we drive safely.
D．We must operate automatically when driving on the roads.
2．Why does the author use driving as an example in expressing his points?
A．Learning languages has specific characters.
B．Skillful driving benefits language learning.
C．Driving safely is harder than language learning.
D．Driving and language learning share similar skills.
3．What does the underlined word “this” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A．The meaning we want to express.
B．Struggle with language learning problems.
C．Spending more time on the topic.
D．Devoting more conscious attention.
4．What conclusion can we draw from the text?
A．Well begun, half done.
B．It is never too old to learn.
C．Practice makes perfect.
D．Learn to walk before you run.
Ⅱ.完形填空
[20·河北石家庄二中高三质检]Growing up in the 1960s，I was taught from an early age to send a handwritten thank?you note expressing __1__ for kindness. My mother used to buy me a box of paper and __2__ me in the art and value of saying “thank you”. She __3__ to be right.
A study showed that it took less than 5 minutes to write the thank?you notes. Just 5 minutes to make another person feel overjoyed! __4__， in our “instant” world, the idea of getting an actual pen and writing an actual note seems to never come to mind. We tend to do what is __5__ to us—a quick text or an email.
It is easy to use the excuse of being busy, but even very busy and __6__ businessmen find time to __7__ thank?you notes. For example, when Douglas Conant became CEO of Campbells, the company had __8__ half of its market value and morale (士气)was at an all?time low. He __9__ fixing that by doing some simple things that probably not __10__ in any MBA class. For one thing, Conant wrote to every __11__. He gained their confidence and naturally, turned the company around.
In his ten years as CEO, Conant wrote over 30,000 notes to employees. It's __12__ not to ask how he did it. __13__， he had many other things to do __14__ writing thank?you note. Conant made time for it because he knew the impact each one would have. An expression of __15__ in this crazy world still makes a difference.

Ⅲ.读后续写
阅读下面材料， 根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段， 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
[20·山东省淄博市高三模拟]A young and successful manager was traveling down a neighborhood street, going a bit too fast in his new Jaguar. He was watching for kids darting out (窜出) from between parked cars and slowed down when he thought he saw something. As his car passed, no children appeared. Instead, a brick hit violently into the Jag's side door! He stepped on the brakes and backed his Jag back to the spot where the brick had been thrown.
The angry driver then jumped out of the car, grabbed the nearest kid and pushed him up against a parked car shouting, “What was that all about and who are you? Just what the heck are you doing? That's a new car and that brick you threw is going to cost a lot of money. Why did you do it？”
The young boy was apologetic. “Please, mister...please, I'm sorry but I didn't know what else to do，” he explained. “I threw the brick because no one else would stop...” With tears rolling down his face and off his chin, the youth pointed to a spot just around a parked car. “It's my brother，” he said. “He rolled off the sidewalk and fell out of his wheelchair and I can't lift him up.” Now sobbing, the boy asked the astonished manager, “Would you please help me get him back into his wheelchair? He's hurt and he's too heavy for me.”

Ⅱ.完形填空
【语篇解读】 作者从小就被教育要用手写感谢信对他人表达谢意。通过 Douglas Conant 的例子，作者进一步说明小小的感谢信会带来很大的影响。
1．D 考查名词辨析。根据空前的 thank?you note 可知，该处是说通过手写感谢信表达谢意。concern“关注”；sympathy“同情”；affection“爱情，钟爱”，均与语境不符。D项意为“欣赏；感激”，符合语境。

8．A 考查动词辨析。根据下文“...morale (士气) was at an all?time low.”可知，该处是说“公司已经失去了一半的市场价值”。gain“获得”；develop“发展”；damage“损害，破坏”，均与语境不符。A项意为“失去”，符合语境。
9．C 考查动词短语辨析。根据空后的 fixing that by doing some simple things 可知，此处是说他开始做一些简单的事情，以解决这个问题。give up“放弃”；keep up“保持”；worry about“担心”，均与语境不符。C项意为“开始；着手”，符合语境。
10．B 考查动词辨析。根据空后的“...in any MBA class.”可知，该处是说“这些事情在工商管理学硕士(MBA)，课堂可能不会教”。permit“允许”；check“检查”；test“考验；试验”，均与语境不符。B项意为“教；教导”，符合语境。
11．D 考查名词辨析。根据下文“...Conant wrote over 30,000 notes to employees.”可知，该处是说“Conant 写信给每个雇员”。market“市场，集市”；businessman“商人”；company“公司”，均与语境不符。D项意为“雇员”，符合语境。
12．A 考查形容词辨析。根据上文内容可知，该处是说“很难不问他是怎么做到的”。great“很好的，美好的”；amazing“令人惊异的”； disappointing“令人失望的”，均与语境不符。A项意为“困难的”，符合语境。

15．A 考查名词辨析。理解语境可知，该处是说“在这个疯狂的世界里一个善意的表达仍然会产生很大的影响”。joy“欢乐，喜悦”；value“价值”；confidence“信任”，均与语境不符。A项意为“仁慈；好意”，符合语境。
Ⅲ.读后续写
参考范文：
Moved beyond words, the driver cooled his anger. He hurriedly lifted the handicapped boy back into the wheelchair. On seeing the bleeding cuts, the man took out his white handkerchief and wiped the wound gently with great care. A quick look told him everything was going to be okay. When the driver was about to leave, the young brother stepped forward. “Thank you and may God bless you，” said the grateful child, tears filling his eyes.
The driver watched the boy push his wheelchair?bound brother down the sidewalk toward their home. It was a long, slow walk back to the Jaguar. The damage was very noticeable, but the driver never bothered to repair the damaged side door. He kept it there to remind him of this message: “Don't go through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at you to get your attention！” God whispers in our souls and speaks to our hearts. Sometimes when we don't have time to listen, he has to throw a brick at us. It's our choice to listen or not.

Ⅲ.读后续写
参考范文：
Moved beyond words, the driver cooled his anger. He hurriedly lifted the handicapped boy back into the wheelchair. On seeing the bleeding cuts, the man took out his white handkerchief and wiped the wound gently with great care. A quick look told him everything was going to be okay. When the driver was about to leave, the young brother stepped forward. “Thank you and may God bless you，” said the grateful child, tears filling his eyes.
The driver watched the boy push his wheelchair?bound brother down the sidewalk toward their home. It was a long, slow walk back to the Jaguar. The damage was very noticeable, but the driver never bothered to repair the damaged side door. He kept it there to remind him of this message: “Don't go through life so fast that someone has to throw a brick at you to get your attention！” God whispers in our souls and speaks to our hearts. Sometimes when we don't have time to listen, he has to throw a brick at us. It's our choice to listen or not.
