Last year，I traveled alone to visit my two daughters in New York，one of whom had recently given birth to her first child.I sat next to an older man with a long white beard and a black hat.
We had a long flight ahead of us and I thought we'd get talking.I wondered what he'd say if he knew I was a film writer though Hollywood movies sometimes didn't interest many people at present.I once wrote a film set in a Hasidic(犹太教中的哈西德派的) neighborhood，and I'd never been certain how it was received.
“Hi，”I said to the man as I sat down.A smile lit up his face.After taking off，we introduced ourselves and made some small talks.Finally he asked the question，“What do you do for a living，Robert? ”“I am a writer，”I answered.“You write what，novels or stories of some sort？”“Movies，” I answered.To my surprise，the man was very interested.
“I was in a movie once，”he said.“Really？” “A big Hollywood movie.I was an extra.It's called A Stranger Among Us.Have you heard of it? ”“I wrote that film，”I said.The older man suddenly held my hands and thanked me.He said，“That time in my life was very difficult.My wife and I didn't know how we'd pay for the rent that month.Then your movie came to our town and offered jobs for us.I wasn't the only one.We were treated well; our beliefs were respected，and the money helped us get by.You can imagine how much the movie meant to me.Is there anything I can do for you？”
There was.A few days later，in the church my new friend gave a blessing over my new granddaughter.

Section A(10 marks)
(2012·浏阳市田家炳实验中学高一期末)Today，February twenty-ninth, is leap day.This date only appears on the calendar once every four years.But why?
Everyone knows the Earth takes three hundred sixty-five days to travel around the sun.Well, that is not exactly correct.The Earth really takes three hundred sixty-five days, five hours, forty-eight minutes and forty-six seconds to complete its orbit around the sun.
The problem for people developing calendars (日历) was what to do with the extra(额外的) five hours, forty-eight minutes and forty-six seconds.
People needed calendars to help them know when to plant crops and when to celebrate religious holidays.The ancient Greeks and Chinese had a solution(解决办法)．They produced calendars that included extra months every nineteen years.
The ancient Romans had a different solution.In the year forty-six, the Roman ruler Julius Caesar made a new calendar.The Julian calendar included an extra day every four years.But there was a problem.The Julian year was just over eleven minutes longer than the cycle(循环) of the seasons.In fifteen eighty-two, Pope Gregory the Thirteenth established a new calendar to keep a better recorder of the days.Pole Gregory was the religious leader of most of Europe.He decided that years that could be divided by four would add a day.However, years that ended in two zeros and that could not be evenly(均匀地) divided by four hundred would not be leap years.For example, the years seventeen hundred, eighteen hundred and nineteen hundred were not leap years.But the years sixteen hundred and two thousand were leap years.
So leap years are years with three hundred sixty-six days, instead of the usual three hundred sixty-five.This extra day is added to the calendar on February twenty-ninth, sometimes known as leap day.People born on leap day may be called “leaplings”. They usually celebrate their birthday on February twenty-eight or March first.

(2013·师大附中高一上期中)Teenagers who spend hours in front of the television may have a poorer diet, a new study shows. It is not clear, researchers say, whether television itself is the reason, but it is possible that things like snacking in front of the TV or seeing ads for junk food influence young people's diets.
The study included nearly 1,400 high school students. It showed that those who watched TV for five hours or more every day had less healthy diets than other students five years later. As a group, they ate fewer fruits and vegetables, but ate more fast food, snack products and fried foods.
“We're not able to tell why，” lead researcher Dr. Daheia J. Barr－Anderson said. “But we have some speculation(推测)．” People who spend a lot of time in front of the TV, especially teenagers, may have more snacks. It may influence their long-term diet quality. It's also possible that TV ads for fast food, sweets and snacks make teenagers eat more of those foods. TV time might also replace exercise time for some kids.
The researchers found a clear relationship between TV time during high school and diet quality of the young. The heaviest TV viewers ate the most junk food five years later, and those who'd watched fewer than two hours every day had the most fruits and vegetables.
According to Barr-Anderson, the findings support experts' advice that children should watch no more than two hours of television every day. “Parents should cut the TV time.” Barr-Anderson said. She advised that parents set a good example by eating right, being physically active and controlling their own TV time.
61．Is it clear that television is the reason for young people's poor diet? (No more than 3 words)
________________________________________________________________________
62．What kind of TV ads will makes teenagers eat more unhealthy food? (No more than 10 words)

综合检测(三)
1．A 上句中说到麦当劳鸡肉的销售量因为禽流感而下降，下句中说到的是 the good news is，因此表语从句所说明的是现在的情况，故从句应该使用现在完成时。
2．B 考查be worth doing。be worth doing意为“值得……的”，后常跟动词－ing形式，主动形式表示被动意义。句意：我认为他提出的你有时间读一读这本书的建议是非常值得考虑的。
3．D 句意：年轻的时候，他有时宁愿尝试新的东西也不愿意循规蹈矩。prefer to do A rather than do B意为“宁愿做A也不愿意做B”。
4．A 这是一个复杂的特殊疑问句，句中do you think为插入语，结构为“特殊疑问词＋do you think/believe...＋句子的其他部分(陈述语序)？”。
5．D 本题考查强调句。强调句的基本结构为：It is/was＋被强调部分＋that从句。句意为：我们在一起呆了几个星期后我才发现我们有许多共同之处。not...until...直到……才……。
6．A 考查定语从句。从后面的closing time打烊时间， 可以得知此句是在谈时间，但是此句中缺少主语，前面又有一个逗号，所以可以确定这里是一个非限制性定语从句，故用which在定语从句中作主语。
7．D 考查目的状语。in order that和so that后跟从句，且so that引导目的状语从句时不能置于句首。so as to和in order to后跟不定式，但是so as to不可置于句首，故选D项。
8．B 考查固定搭配。make up of“由……构成”；make good use/the most/the best of“充分利用”，故B项正确。
9．C 句意：由于我自己的原因，我不能单独完成这件事。of my own“自己的”；on my own“单独地，独自地”。故答案为C项。
10．B do you think作插入语成分出现在句中，故排除C、D两项；把do you think从句中去掉后，其余部分应为自然语序，故排除A项。
11．A 考查反意疑问句。根据主语是none of them可知，用they作反意疑问部分的主语，再根据谓语动词由could understand构成可知，A项正确。
12．A 考查固定结构。句意：他过去常常打牌，但是现在他习惯了饭后散步。used to do sth.“过去常常做某事”，故第一空选用play。be used to do sth.意为“被用来做某事”，不合题意，因此只能用be used to doing sth.，意为“习惯于做某事”。故本题A项正确。
13．B 考查so的省略和倒装。句意：——你出去时忘了带钱包。——天啊，我是忘了。so did I表示前者的情况同样适用于后者；so I did表示陈述或肯定前文的内容，故本题B项正确。
14．C 考查介词＋which”引导的非限制性定语从句。句中的先行词是two novels，而且后面是一个非限制性定语从句，因此用both of which引导。That不能引导非限制性定语从句，也不能跟在介词后面；如果选them，则逗号后面需要有并列连词and或者是独立主格结构，即both of them made into...。
15．B 句意：当罗斯的家人在看电视的时候，她不能集中精力于正在做的事情。concentrate on“集中注意力于”；while表示“当……的时候”，引导时间状语从句。
【语篇解读】 本文介绍了爱斯基摩人的生活情况：爱斯基摩人的特殊生活习惯缘于那儿的特殊气候。
16．B 根据下文得知这里介绍的是爱斯基摩人的生活(life)。
17．B 根据winter和summer判断。
18．C 由后一句话可推断答案。冬夜很长，几乎看不到太阳，也就是没有白天，这正是北极的气候特征。
19．A see表示“看”的结果，watch和look都表示“看”的动作。
20．D 夏天白昼长，几乎没有夜晚，太阳从不下山，所以选go down。
21．C 他们要穿上暖和的衣服才能抵御严寒。
22．D 这里是指用动物皮来做衣服鞋帽。
23．A 北极很冷。
24．A 表示在外面遇到风暴时。
25．A 由于风暴而回不了家。
26．B 用雪造房是因为遇到风暴回不了家，风暴过后自然要离开雪房子了。
27．C 这种恶劣的气候条件下，生活是很艰难困苦的，故选hard。
28．where 29.who/that 30.Though/Although 31.out 32.in 33.also 34.because/as 35.a
36．C 细节理解题。文章的开头介绍了open education可以让学生发展自己的学科兴趣，学会对自己的教育负责，“This way of teaching allows the students to grow as people，and to develop their own interests in many subjects.”故该题应选择C项。
37．B 细节理解题。根据第一段最后“Some students will be happier in an open education school.They will not have to worry about grades or rules.For students who worry about these things a lot，it is a good idea to be in an open classroom.”故该题应选择B项。
38．A 细节理解题。根据第二段开头“But many students will not do well in an open classroom.For some students，there are too few rules.These students will do little in school.”故该题应选择A项。
39．D 细节理解题。该题目可以用排除法来选择，文章的第二段最后部分讲解地很明白“some traditional teachers do not like it.Many teachers do not believe in open education.Teachers who want to have an open classroom may have many problems at their schools.”A、B、C三项都提到了，故该题应选择D项。
40．A 主旨大意题。文章从open education的有利点和不利点分别介绍，然后第三段阐述了自己的观点，主旨应是对open education的概念的阐述，故选A。
【语篇解读】 本文讲述了作者愉快的探女之行及其意外收获。
41．B 细节理解题。根据文章第一段第一句话可知，“我”去纽约女儿那里， 因为“我”的外孙女刚出生不久。故B项正确。
42．D 推理判断题。根据第三段中，飞机起飞后的谈话可知，他们应该彼此已介绍了各自的名字。
43．C 词义猜测题。根据第四段中的“My wife and I didn't know how we'd pay for the rent that month.Then your movie came to our town and offered jobs for us.”可知，由于剧组拍摄电影而到了他的家乡，在他困难的时候，给他提供了就业的机会可知，他并不是专职演员，所以他只能演一些并不重要的角色。
44．A 细节理解题。根据第四段，the older man在生活最困难的时候，多亏了作者的电影给他提供了就业机会，使他渡过难关。
45．D 推理判断题。根据最后一段的“A few days later，in the church my new friend gave a blessing over my new granddaughter.”可知，the older man为我的外孙女做了“洗礼”。
46．A 主旨大意题。全文讲述了作者“海上划船——天气突变——桨架断裂——等待救援”的过程，主要讲的是作者在海上的一次可怕经历。
47．B 细节理解题。根据首段末句中的“We finished lunch and then decided to rent a boat”可知，作者他们是吃完午饭，然后决定去划船的，因此时间是在下午。
48．C 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“but as soon as we changed it，the oarlock broke”可知，他们的桨架断了，致使他们无法划船，这正是他们无法返回的原因。
49．B 细节理解题。根据第三段首句中的“After seeing the change of weather，we shouldn't have continued to row”可知，在看到变天后，他们不应该再继续划船，其中后半个分句是虚拟语气，“should(not)＋have＋done”表示“本来(不)应该做某事”，因此作者认为当时不应该继续划船。
50．C 细节理解题。根据第三段的“the boat began to shake like a cradle”可知，他呕吐的原因是“船摇晃得太厉害了”。
51．Leap Day/ An Extra Day 52.A calendar
53．Problem 54.Solutions 55.People 56.extra months 57.Julius Caesar 58.every four years

Subject：Health_and_Appearance
Dear_editor，
I'm writing to tell you about the discussion we held yesterday afternoon about health and appearance.
Opinions are divided on the topic. Those for health think that we should take activities or have food on the basic of health，and that good health is the resource of study and work. They insist that the people who own good health can be themselves easily but the people who only own beautiful appearance can't make great contributions to society, on the contrary this kind of people will be a burden of society.
But the supporters of beautiful appearance believe that only healthy body will bring nothing good to us and beautiful appearance will surely help us to be successful in study and work.They are fond of the idea that if we are good looking, we can be ourselves more easily.
As far as I'm concerned，I think there is no need to pay too much attention to our appearance as long as we are healthy.Health is the greatest wealth.
Yours_sincerely，
Zhang_Peng

A third of office workers would rather grab a few minutes extra sleep than breakfast，according to a survey that estimated poor eating habits were costing companies dearly in terms of lost productivity.A survey by Ipsos Mori found 17 percent of British office workers never have breakfast and 17 percent have it just one to three times a week.It found eight percent of 1,051 office staff questioned also regularly skip(跳过) lunch，with these poor eating habits estimated to be costing companies 17 billion pounds (DS| 34 billion) a year or 97 million lost working days.
“Worryingly，of those who rarely or never eat lunch,27 percent also never eat breakfast during the working week，”said Ipsos Mori researchers in a statement.
The survey，commissioned by food service company Baxter Storey，estimated skipping breakfast cost companies 8.1 billion pounds or 46.5 million lost working days，with many studies finding a link between eating breakfast and attention span，learning ability and general well-being.
When other poor eating habits such as having no breakfast and lunch or having no breakfast and snacks, are included，lost productivity rocketed to nearly 17 billion pounds.
The survey found most employees－92 percent－have lunch，with 68 percent opting for(选择) sandwiches，but most people don't drink enough during the day.Only 11 percent had the recommended eight or more glasses of drinks during the working day.
“People who eat breakfast have better concentration，problem solving ability，mental performance，memory and mood. People who eat breakfast are also more physically energetic and have better coordination (协调)，”said nutrition specialist Matt Barker.
“Research tells us that scores on memory tests were about 15 percent lower in people who skipped breakfast.And those who skip it tend to eat sugary，fatty foods later in the day，reducing their productivity.”

(2012·衡阳八中高一上期中)With an obese (very fat) or overweight population of 66% percent of adults, teaching your kids healthy eating habits is one of the most important things you can do for them as a parent.
Most parents and children claim that breakfast is part of their everyday routines. But for many more than you might think, it's not. Children who eat breakfast have higher math grades, have improved reading scores and basically perform better in school. They also tend to have healthier bodies in general, with better-controlled weight levels.
When you take them to the grocery store with you, it's doubtless that your children will request the most sugar-filled, fat-injected products on the shelf. But these are not the ones to have in your home—you should avoid buying them at all. Be sure your kids have healthy snacks.
Yes, kids like white bread. But any kid can get used to the taste of whole grains. It just takes a little practice. Look for white bread, and add other whole grains into their diet. Start toasting their sandwiches. When it's toasted, it'll be that much harder for them to tell the difference in taste.
It's simple, it's true, and it's something you already know: kids who get plenty of exercise are healthier kids. Set limits on the amount of time your child may spend in front of the television or computer screen. Sign them up for plenty of sports and outdoor activities. And best of all, get involved in sports and exercise with them.
One of the best things you can do to establish healthy eating habits in your kids is to have them yourself. You can tell your kids every day to eat healthy foods, but if you don't do the same thing yourself, the lesson will never stick.

Ⅱ.1.A 句意：不要给别人透露任何消息，因为此事还在商议中。give away“泄露”；give out“分发”；give up“放弃”；give off“发出”。
2．C 句意：——David最近进步很快。——是的，你也是。第一空表示对前一句的赞同，第二空用倒装结构表示“也”。
3．B 句意：那个人似乎是这一领域的专家。事实上他对此一无所知。as a matter of fact“事实上”；so far“迄今为止”；in other words“换句话说”；at all“根本，全然”。
4．B 句意：我每周都要给母亲写信，大部分都是在星期天写。mostly“主要地；通常”，符合句意。most“大多数的，最多”；almost“几乎”；majority“大多数”，是名词。
5．C neither置于句首引起倒装，而这里主语是单数，故谓语用单数。
6．A 句意：这种社会现象仅能存在几个月，将很快消失。in no time“不久，很快，马上”，符合句意。at no time“决不”；at a time“一次，每次”；at one time“曾经，一度”。

Ⅲ.1.A 主旨大意题。根据全篇理解，文章讲的是通过一篇调查发现员工不吃早餐会影响他们的工作效率。所以A是对的。B项中工人的工作效率主要依赖早饭的说法片面；C中公司必须提供早饭来提高工作效率的说法文中没提到；D中公司要求员工吃早饭的说法也没有涉及。
2．D 推理判断题。根据文章第三段最后一句可知，很多研究发现，是否吃早餐会影响注意力集中的时间长短、学习能力及总体幸福感，因此能从吃早餐中受益的是A，B，C三项，D项一个人的工作能力应与此无关。
3．D 细节理解题。根据文章第一、四段和第五段的综合理解可知A是三分之一的人而不是大多数人，宁愿多睡一会儿也不吃早餐，故A项错误；由第三段第一句可知不吃早餐给公司造成的损失是81亿英镑，故B项错误；由第四段第一句可知如果将其它不良的饮食习惯也算上，如不吃早餐和午餐或不吃早餐和零食，公司所遭受的损失则高达近170亿英镑，所以其它不良的饮食习惯造成的损失应是170减去81是89亿英镑，所以C项错误，D项正确。
4．B 推理判断题。根据文章由第一段可知8%的人经常不吃午餐，由第二段可知在那些很少或从来不吃午餐的人中，27%的人也从不吃早餐。所以既不吃早餐也不吃午餐的人应是1 051×8%×27%，大约22人。
5．C 推理判断题。从最后一段的理解知道不吃早餐记忆力会降低，即使吃糖和脂肪食品，也会降低工作效率。早餐是不能用其他东西弥补的，所以A、B项错误，C项正确。D的说法本段没有涉及。

The story of tea began over four and a half thousand years ago. According to a Chinese fairy story, in 2737 BC the Chinese Emperor, Shen Nung, scholar and herbalist, was sitting under a tree while his servant boiled drinking water. A leaf from the tree dropped into the water and Shen Nung decided to try it. The tree was a wild tea tree.
From the earliest times tea was known for its properties as a healthy and refreshing drink. By the third century AD many stories were being told and some wrote about tea and the benefits of tea drinking, but it was not until the Tang Dynasty that tea became China's national drink and the word “cha” was used to describe tea.
Tea drinking has been practiced throughout the world for hundreds of years from the imperial court of ancient China to the Russian tea room, from the Japanese tea ceremony to British village tea shops.
Tea is a naturally refreshing drink and it has no calories, so it's the perfect drink to keep you looking good and feeling fit. When taken with milk, four cups of tea a day can provide you with significant amounts of the following nutrients: about 17% of the recommended intake for calcium, 5% for zinc, 22% for Vitamin B2, 5% for Vitamin B, especially Vitamins B1 and B6.
A cup of tea is also a good source of manganese(锰), which is necessary for general physical development, and potassium(钾) which helps to keep your body's fluid balance. The great effects of tea have been appreciated and understood by many people.
1．From the first paragraph we know that________.
A．Shen Nung planted a tree and put its leaves into water to drink
B．Shen Nung and his servant studied and discovered tea together

D．Shen Nung discovered tea by accident
2．The underlined word “it” in the first paragraph refers to________.

3．B 答句句意：实际上两个我都不喜欢。not...either of them意为“两个都不……”。
4．B 考查让步状语从句。while的意思是“虽然，尽管”，相当于though或although。句意：虽然他们都是强有力的候选人，但只有一个人被选中担任这个职务。规律总结：while作连词时，有几种意义：一种是表时间，即“当……的时候”；一种是表示前后的对比关系，而且有轻微的转折，意为“然而”；还有一种是表示让步，意为“虽然，尽管”，相当于though/although。
5．A 在用于比较的主从复合句中，反意疑问句应与主句一致，故答案为A。
6．A 本题考查祈使句的反意疑问句。有时候为了指明向谁命令或请求，祈使句也会说出主语，即呼语，本题中Lily为祈使句的呼语。祈使句的反意疑问句用will you，故答案为A。
7．C 主从复合句中，反意疑问部分应和主句保持一致，主句主语是Brian，且主句是肯定句，故用didn't he，答案为C。
8．D 关系代词which引导非限制性定语从句，which指代前面句子的内容，故答案为D。
9．B As指代整个主句talks between the two countries are making progress，作定语从句的主语。句意为“正如报纸上所报道的那样，这两个国家的会谈取得了进展”，故答案为B。
