[2022·南阳高一检测]The United States celebrates Valentine's Day each year on February 14. Many other countries celebrate Valentine's Day, too, each in their own way. Here is a look at the Valentine's Day traditions in three countries.
Wales: land of love spoons
In Wales, it is called St. Dwynwen's Day, which takes place on January 25. The traditional romantic gift on this day is a love spoon.
Beginning in the 17th century, Welsh men made beautiful wooden spoons as a show of their love for that special person in their lives. Each shape of the spoons has a different meaning. For example, horseshoes mean good luck; keys represent the key to a lover's heart; and wheels are a sign of support.
Argentina: a week of sweets
Argentina celebrates Valentine's Day in February, but also gives a whole other week to love in July. They call it Sweetness Week. If you kiss someone, they have to give you a sugary treat.
Sweetness Week started in 1989 with a candy company called Arcor. They made an advertisement called “Candy for a Kiss”. The idea was to give the company's chocolates and other candies in exchange for a sweet kiss on the cheek. The campaign had a stronger effect than the company expected—it led to a new holiday!
Every July, couples who take part give each other candies and kisses all week long.
South Korea: three is a charm
For South Koreans, Valentine's Day happens in three parts: February 14, March 14 and April 14.
On February 14, women traditionally give men gifts of chocolate to show their love. One month later, on a holiday known as White Day, men show their thanks by giving women a sweet gift. The name “White Day” comes from the custom of giving white－colored gifts.
Let's not forget Black Day on April 14. Single people who did not get gifts on February 14 or March 14 often gather on Black Day to eat noodles with black bean soup.
1．What does a key－shaped spoon mean
A．Deep love. B．Good luck.
C．Strong support. D．Real thanks.
2．When is Sweetness Week celebrated
A．In February. B．In March.
C．In April. D．In July.
3．What would be a good gift on White Day
A．Brown chocolates.
B．Black beans.
C．White milk candies.
D．Silver spoons.

[2022·山东省临沂市高一下期中]On January 22, 2022, the British－Belgian 19－year－old, Rutherford, successfully landed her microlight aircraft back at the Airport, from where she had departed 155 days ago, fulfilling her dream to be the youngest woman to fly around the world solo.
“I feel incitant not only to break the Guinness World Record, but also to narrow the gender gap by 11 years between the current youngest man record holder, 18 at the time of his record, and the previous woman record holder, who was 30 when she completed her ‘Dreams Soar' around－the－world flight.” Rutherford wrote on her blog. Rutherford's journey crossing five continents and 52 countries began on August 18, 2021. She met many unexpected delays along the way. They included an unscheduled stop in California, due to the fierce wildfires and a stop in Alaska, to renew her visa. She also faced several challenges in the air. Despite the severe difficulties, the determined young pilot never gave up on her dream.
Rutherford grew up around airplanes. Her British father flies commercially, while her Belgian mother is also a pilot. The young girl began learning how to fly at age 14 and got her flight license in 2020. With her goal of flying around the world completed, Rutherford now has her sights set even higher. She wants to become an astronaut and explore space.
She hopes that her journey will encourage more young women to pursue careers in flight. Currently the number of women pilots is just 5 percent. Rutherford says, “It's an easy thing to say, but just go for it. If you don't try and see how high you can fly, then you'll never know.”

Whether you believe it or not, there is a festival that honors the monkeys. Called ‘The Monkey Buffet Festival’， it is celebrated in the city of Lopburi. You may find this surprising, but when you ask some locals about the cultural significance of this festival you will find that there is really nothing! The Monkey Buffet Festival is supposed to be for business—a creative and unique way of attracting and increasing tourists in Thailand.
However, you may ask why, of all the animals in Thailand to honor with a festivity, choose monkeys Interestingly, this is due to ancient folklore (民间传说) that tells the story of Hanuman, a Hindu monkey deity (神) who is believed to have rescued a bride (新娘) from a ten－headed evil spirit. It was said that Hanuman discovered Lopburi, and these monkeys, the ones living in Lopburi receiving a feast every year, are his descendants.
The yearly Monkey Buffet Festival started in 1989 organized by a local businessman. Nowadays, the festival is a major tourist event and travelers from all over the world come here to see these huge numbers of monkeys filling their stomachs.

They can be very aggressive (好攻击的) and have been known to take glasses and wallets away from tourists. So keep an eye on monkeys hanging from trees in the area.
Visit Lopburi in Thailand and enjoy the Monkey Buffet. What are you waiting for Mark your calendar for the last Sunday of November and experience the festivities with the cute little monkeys.

[2022·黄冈高一检测]Six weeks before his birthday, Giuseppe Paternò achieved the dream of a lifetime: He got a university degree.
Mr Paternò's graduation has inspired news coverage around the world, partly because of his age. But he has mainly drawn attention because his life story speaks of commitment, a theme that has encouraged as millions of schoolchildren in Italy and elsewhere to face extraordinary uncertainty during the coronavirus pandemic.
Born in Palermo in 1923, the first of seven children in a “very poor family, ” Mr Paternò began working soon after finishing elementary school. “The family was large, there was only one paycheck, we were under fascism, and times were tough，” he said.
Eventually, he ended up at a publishing house where an enlightened boss persuaded his father to send him back to school for a three year vocational degree. Mr Paternò then worked for an insurance agency while he took private classes to become a telegraph operator. He used skills from the operator job when he was drafted into the navy in World War Ⅱ. The__job also opened doors to the State Railways Company, where he worked for more than four decades.
It was only after he retired, in the mid 1980s, that he returned to his books, taking theology courses through the Archdiocese of Palermo after a chance meeting with a philosophy professor who urged him to follow his love.
Mr Paternò's son, Ninni Paternò，said that the family had not expected all the attention. “It's unbelievable！” the younger Paternò said of his father. “He achieved his goal, but he didn't mean to be famous in newspapers around the world.”
University officials are hoping that Mr Paternò will continue his studies on Master's course. But he isn't so sure. “I have to admit that in this moment, I don't know whether I would do it with the same spirit，” he said on Wednesday. Still, Mr Paternò said he would probably continue anyway.
1．What's the main reason for the world to report Mr Paternò's graduation

Nikola Tesla was a scientist whose work largely centered around electricity. Samuel Langhorne Clemens, whose pen name is Mark Twain, in addition to being a writer, was interested in technology and science. Given not only the greatness of their minds, but also the overlap (重叠) in their interests, it seemed only a matter of time before they would meet each other.
According to the science blog It's Okay To Be Smart, Tesla had been very sick in the 1870s before he moved to the US. His doctors thought he might not survive. Since there was relatively little else he could do during that period of time, he read all the books he could at the local library. Among those books were several of Mark Twain's earlier works, which Tesla described as “so interesting as to make me completely forget my hopeless state”. He went on to say that those books may have been the reason for his recovery.
The Irish Times reports that the writer and the inventor became friends in the 1890s. Tesla was living in New York, and even though Twain and his family lived in Europe at the time, Twain was a frequent traveler to New York. Twain became interested in Tesla and his work after hearing about an electric motor (发动机) the scientist had invented while working for Westinghouse.
He recognized that Tesla's motor was better than a model his partner, James Paige, had come up with, which Twain had been thinking about investing (投资) in.Tesla advised against Paige's motor, but Twain still put money in another of Paige's machines and suffered big losses.
Twain was very interested in electricity, and Tesla was looking for all kinds of new ways to use it, so it's hardly surprising that Twain became a visitor at Tesla's lab.
Although there're very few letters between the two great men, it is known that Tesla was invited to Twain's daughter's wedding, which is a sure sign of the real friendship that had been built between them, and continued until Twain's death on April 21, 1910.
5．How did Mark Twain's books help Tesla
A．They freed his mind from pain.
B．They guided him to the field of science.
C．They led him to create more inventions.
D．They encouraged him to come to the US.
6．What attracted Twain to Tesla
A．His survival story.
B．His interest in reading.
C．His decision to move to the US.
D．His achievement in Westinghouse.
7．What happened between Twain and Paige
A．Twain compared him with Tesla.
B．Twain placed all his hope on him.
C．Twain wrongly believed in his product.
D．Twain was friends with him through thick and thin.
8．What is the best title for the text
A．All Roads Lead to Rome
B．Great Minds Think Alike
C．Rome Was Not Built in One Day
D．Darkness and Night Are Mothers of Thought

A
Seventy years ago, a group of well－known people from the art world headed by an Austrian conductor decided to hold an international festival of music, dance and theater in Edinburgh. The idea was to reunite Europe after the Second World War.
It quickly attracted famous names such as Alec Guinness, Richard Burton, Dame Margot Fonteyn and Marlene Dietrich as well as the big symphony orchestras (交响乐团). It became a fixed event every August and now attracts 400，000 people yearly.
At the same time, the “Fringe” appeared as a challenge to the official festival.Eight theater groups turned up uninvited in 1947, in the belief that everyone should have the right to perform, and they did so in a public house disused for years.
Soon, groups of students firstly from Edinburgh University, and later from the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, Durham and Birmingham were making the journey to the Scottish capital each summer to perform theater by little－known writers of plays in small church halls to the people of Edinburgh.
Today the “Fringe”， once less recognized, has far outgrown the festival with around 1，500 performances of theater, music and dance on every one of the 21 days it lasts. And yet as early as 1959, with only 19 theater groups performing, some said it was getting too big.
A paid administrator was first employed only in 1971, and today there are eight administrators working all year round and the number rises to 150 during August itself.In 2004 there were 200 places housing 1，695 shows by over 600 different groups from 50 different countries.More than 1.25 million tickets were sold.
1．What was the purpose of Edinburgh Festival at the beginning

The origins of the Christmas traditions are the most fascinating of any holiday.All our favorite activities can be traced (追溯) back to specific points in history, and knowing how these things came about just makes celebrating Christmas much more wonderful.
The original Nicholas was born in 280 AD in the small country of Lycia, which is now part of modern Turkey.Nicholas became first a priest (牧师) and then a bishop (主教) in the early Christian church.The first paintings of him show Nicholas wearing the clothes of a Christian bishop — red decorated with white.When we see Santa's suit today, we're still seeing the two kinds of colors.
Nicholas became famous for gift－giving. In the early fourth century, a legend began to spread about Nicholas coming at night to the home of three poor girls who did not have money and therefore could not get married.While the girls slept, Nicholas left gold coins in their stockings, which were drying by the fire. That's how the tradition of Santa filling stockings got its start.
In 1841，Santa first appeared at a department store in Philadelphia.This Santa tried to climb down a chimney to impress the children who were watching, but he got stuck halfway down. In 1890, department store Santas began appearing all over America, especially on the East Coast around Boston.Parents in other countries joined together and hired passenger trains to take their families to see these Santas.
At the same time, Ralph E．Morris of the New England Telephone Company suggested that strings of lights be hung on Christmas trees. After all, lights would be much safer than candles.Our modern－day image of Santa as a fat man is based on ads of the Coca－Cola company in the 1930s. Artist Hans Sundblom used a retired salesman named Les Prentice as his model.
5．What can we learn from Paragraph 1
A．Christmas is the most important holiday.
B．The traditions of Christmas are based on facts.
C．There was not any record of Christmas in the past.
D．More and more people begin to celebrate Christmas.

D．His image is the same as the modern－day Santa.
7．Three poor girls are mentioned to ________．
A．prove that Nicholas used to be a rich man
B．tell of the origin of Santa filling stockings
C．show Christmas was set up mainly for the poor
D.describe a famous story in the early fourth century
8．What can we infer from the last two paragraphs

Fifteen years ago I left Melbourne for Paris, feeling sad over my mother's death and finding unexpected comfort in the new city. Life there was like being drunk with adventure, living hand to mouth off music performances, and teaching English to businessmen. When, years later, our daughter was born, though we were both Australian, we decided to continue our life there. But we soon realised the choice wasn't only ours.
One night when she was four, my daughter said hopefully：“When we go to Australia for Christmas, I want to stay and live there.”
We hadn't considered it, but life had become stressful—her school hours were long and my work in advertising tiring. She had never had a skinned knee or climbed a tree. Imaginations of Australia began dancing in our heads. Australia is beautiful. The sun shines so bright, and people smile so wide. I couldn't stop my kid having a free, tree climbing childhood. And so, on a December morning we boarded a plane for Australia.
As a kid I often dreamed of coming home to find my house ing back to our neighbourhood in Melbourne was a bit like this. Most of our friends had moved to the country or overseas. Fruit shops had turned to apartment blocks; once busy shopping areas were full of for lease (供出租的) signs.
We stayed in a holiday rental (租用的房屋) down at the beach where my dad lived. It was wonderful. The air is fresh. Our girl climbed up a tree, ran wild, and play on the sand to her heart's content.
But it wasn't long before I became upset. I felt exposed (无保护的). People could see me. In Paris nobody looked or cared. I continued my copywriting business remotely (远程地). I could be in both places at once. Good in theory. But in practise, lonely. Neither here, nor there.
Within six months we were back in Paris, our life straight back where we'd left off. The pace was delicious.

[2022·四川省绵阳市高一下学期期中]
One of the most traditional British holidays is the “seaside holiday”. Typically, families get on a train or into a car and travel to British seaside towns. They sunbathe on the beach, buy ice creams, eat fish and chips，build sandcastles and so on.
In the early 1970s, air travel became affordable for the average family in the UK, and more and more British people started travelling abroad for their summer holidays. After all, the British weather wasn't very good, even in summer, so a lot left the UK for a vacation. Particularly popular with families on a budget is the “package holiday”， where the cost of flights and accommodation were offered at a discounted price by travel agents.
In the 1980s and 1990s, young people in the UK became more wealthy, or at least had more disposable income. As a result, young people started to go abroad in groups, to places such as Spain and Greece. Once at their destination, they socialized with other groups of young people and had one long party.
British holidaying habits have begun to change, however. Climate change means that the UK now has a warmer climate than before, so people don't always feel they need to go overseas to find good weather. Also, the world seems a less certain place as interconnected economics rise and fall, which means that the cost of foreign holidays is less predictable than it used to be. As a result, more and more Britons are choosing to spend their summer holidays in the UK.
In the UK, the domestic (国内的) tourism industry—when people go on holiday in their own country—is healthier than it has been in decades. There is now an increased appreciation among Britons for the diversity of the UK. It is not just the geography and the diversity of climate based activities on offer. It is also the diversity of the cultures in the UK that is beginning to be of interest to domestic tourists .
The UK has always been famous for its international explorers, but now it is starting to discover itself.
12．What mainly caused Britons to travel abroad for holidays in the early 1970s
A．The lower cost of flights.
B．The bad weather in the UK.
C．The trend of going overseas.
D．The rise of tourism industry.
13．What does the underlined word “disposable” mean in Paragraph 3
A．Easy to handle. B．Steady in amount.
C．Flexible to change. D．Available for use.
14．What can we learn from the passage
A．Steady interconnected economics encourage more Britons to holiday in the UK.
B．Climate change has an impact on the change of British holidaying habits.
C．Package holiday was particularly popular with rich families in the early 1970s.
D．Both domestic and international tourists are interested in the diversity of the UK.
15．What's the author's attitude towards UK's domestic tourism industry
A．Uncertain. B．Optimistic.
C．Pessimistic. D．Critical.

4．答案与解析：B 词句猜测题。划线词汇后文“not only to break the Guinness World Record, but also to narrow the gender gap by 11 years between the current youngest man record holder, 18 at the time of his record, and the previous woman record holder, who was 30 when she completed her ‘Dreams Soar' around－the－world flight”说明Rutherford取得非常好的成绩，打破了吉尼斯世界纪录，实现了自己的梦想。从而推知，看着自己骄人的成绩，Rutherford心中应该是激动的、兴奋的。所以划线词汇incitant应为“兴奋的”的意思。

7．答案与解析：A 推理判断题。通读全文，根据第一段中“On January 22, 2022, ... to be the youngest woman to fly around the world solo.”最后一段中“She hopes that her journey will encourage more young women to pursue careers in flight.”以及她所说“It's an easy thing to say, but just go for it. If you don't try and see how high you can fly, then you'll never know.”可知，本文主要讲述了19岁的比利时裔英国人Rutherford成功地实现了她成为独自环球飞行的最年轻女性的梦想。她的故事激励着更多的人树立远大目标，克服困难，努力奋斗去实现自己伟大的梦想。从而推知，本文想要表达“梦想远大，目标远大”。

9．答案与解析：A 理解主旨要义。第二段首句However, you may ask why, of all the animals in Thailand to honor with a festivity, choose monkeys？为本段主旨句，起到了引出下文的作用。作者在下文具体解释了人们为何选择猴子作为该节庆祝的对象。
10．答案与解析：C 理解具体信息。根据第四段中的These long－tailed monkeys are very used to humans... wallets away from tourists. So keep an eye on monkeys hanging from trees in the area可知，猴子不怕人，因为它们已经习惯了人类，但有时它们也有对人不友好的时候，可能会有一些具有攻击性的行为，如抢走人们的眼镜或者钱包。
11．答案与解析：B 推断。根据最后一段中的Visit Lopburi in Thailand and enjoy the Monkey Buffet. What are you waiting for？以及Where else can you find a festival where monkeys are fed with jellies, candies, sausages, and a can of Coke to drink！等句可知，作者在号召、鼓励人们去Lopburi游玩，参加猴子自助餐节。

8．答案与解析：B 句意：他们没有把这个好消息告诉史蒂夫，而是对他隐瞒了这个秘密。 根据下文“Owen was hiding in the car.”可知，他们没有把这个好消息告诉史蒂夫，所以此处用secret表示“保密”符合语境。

15．答案与解析：B 句意：“我正在芝加哥拜访你！这就是我在这里正在做的，”欧文回答说，然后给了史蒂夫一个大大的拥抱。 上文第7题中提到这两个家庭很自然地利用了这个难得的机会重聚。所以此处指我已来到芝加哥，正在“拜访”你，符合语境。

4．答案与解析：B 推理判断题。根据第一段“My daughter, Mia, is 16 and learning to drive.”和第二段“First, Mia didn't know how to drive at all. She didn't even know where to put the key.”可知，Mia根本不会驾驶，车钥匙插哪儿都不知道，所以可以推断她是初学开车的。
5．答案与解析：A 细节理解题。根据第六段中“I also enjoy the one－on－one time we have together. We have some good conversations. So far, we have covered her friends' hairstyles and how stressed she feels after school. I enjoyed communicating with her.”可知，作者喜欢手把手教女儿开车主要是因为能和女儿相处、交流并且了解女儿的学校生活和学习压力。
6．答案与解析：D 推理判断题。根据第七段中“‘SLOW DOWN！’ I yelled, yanking (猛拉) the hand brake (手刹). We stopped the car and sat in the dark for a minute. ‘You can't go that fast，’ I said. ‘You don't know enough yet.’ I put my hand on her head, ‘I don't want anything to happen to you.’”可知，通过Mia开车太快作者的惊叫，及时动作控制以及后续安慰等言行表明作者对此既感到吃惊又充满关爱。

9．答案与解析：C 细节理解题。根据第三段中“As China joins the ranks of middle－income countries, the demand for health services has increased accordingly.”可知，随着中国进入中等收入国家行列，对健康服务的需求也随之增加。也就是说中国人民的生活水平提高，是健康服务需求增加的原因。
10．答案与解析：B 推理判断题。由第三段“Internet Plus Healthcare can help reduce the problem of inaccessible and expensive public health services that have long been a big concern for the general public.”可知，公共卫生服务一直是公众关注的焦点。由第五段“In recent years, top－level hospitals in major cities have seen …still fall short of meeting the growing demand of the public.”可知，近年来医疗费用已成为家庭的沉重负担，高端医疗资源无法满足公众日益增长的需求。所以目前医疗资源不足等问题日益严重和紧迫，所以中国政府必须抓紧时间采取措施解决问题。
11．答案与解析：B 主旨大意题。由文章开头“China will give the green light to Internet medical services conducted by medical institutions as part of a broader push to promote Internet Plus Healthcare”及全文内容可知，文章主要讲了中国政府推行网上医疗服务的消息。

Many of them, he learned, had come from... to get medical treatment for their children... unable to pay for a place to stay in Lima”及第三段中Pun Chong所说的“I couldn't get the picture of the families sleeping on the floor out of my mind”可知，Pun Chong医生发现许多患病儿童的家人住不起宾馆，所以只好睡在医院的地板上。
13．答案与解析：C 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“We have people who come from the Amazon, travel on a boat and from there take a bus. It can take many days. Just imagine having this trip with a sick kid”“they don't have any resources”及“Sometimes they don't even speak Spanish; they speak Quechua, or other dialects”可知，许多家庭从秘鲁农村跋涉到首都利马给孩子看病，到大城市后，他们没有任何资源，举目无亲，有的只会讲方言。由此可推断，此处讲述这些家庭面临的种种困难。
14．答案与解析：A 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“In 2008, he set up a shelter and a nonprofit called Inspira and to date, his organization has provided free housing, meals and overall support for sick children and their families”可知，Pun Chong医生建了一个庇护所，为患病儿童家庭提供免费住宿和食物。
15．答案与解析：B 推理判断题。根据最后一段中Pun Chong所说的“The kids inspire me every day”“When I'm with these kids, and I feel how strong they are, I understand that there are no problems that we can't solve”可知，Pun Chong在与患病儿童相处的过程中，看到了他们的坚强，这种精神激励着他迎难而上。

2．答案与解析：C 根据上文“In the evening as the sky grows darker, your brain makes a hormone called melatonin(褪黑素).”以及下文“Some of your choices during the day and evening affect your melatonin levels, which in turn can play a role in how well you sleep. So it's suggested：” 可知，设空前句先提出大脑褪黑素，设空处后句引出褪黑素的影响因素继而提出建议。因此设空处需要说明褪黑素的作用，才能形成前后呼应：产生褪黑素→作用→影响因素→建议。选项C“这有助于睡眠。”符合语意 。
3．答案与解析：A 根据上文“Be sure to get that daily exercise in the sun, since it also helps you sleep at night.”可知作者关于褪黑素提出第一个建议。以及下文“If your bedroom isn't completely dark, you won't make as much melatonin.” 可知褪黑素与卧室的光亮有关，因此设空处的第二条建议是关于卧室光亮。选项A 符合语意 。
4．答案与解析：F 根据标题“Eat ‘feel－good’ foods” 以及设空处下句“* Focus on multicoloured whole foods that are recently alive. That means fresh vegetables, fruit, beans, and whole grains instead of processed foods.” 可知，这里的建议与食物有关。所以设空处会解释饮食与健康平衡生活的关系。选项F 符合语意 。
5．答案与解析：D 根据上文“Make room for vegetables such as cauliflower, cabbage, and kale.” 可知，作者建议多吃菜花，卷心菜和甘蓝。则需进一步解释原因，代词“they”可指代上面一系列蔬菜。选项D 符合语意 。

1．答案与解析：D 词义猜测题。根据上文可知，从1964年到1982年，曼德拉一直被关在监狱里。由此猜测，画线词句子“Throughout his incarceration between 1964 and 1990, Mandela gained wide support among South Africa's black people.”意为“在1964年至1990年的监禁期间，曼德拉获得了南非黑人的广泛支持”，即incarceration的意思是“监禁”。

【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。英国人喜欢海滨度假，本文介绍了英国人几十年来度假习惯的演变，从上世纪70年代出国游到如今越来越多的人选择国内游。
12．答案与解析：A 细节理解题。根据第二段“In the early 1970s, air travel became affordable for the average family in the UK, and more and more British people started travelling abroad for their summer holidays.”可知，20世纪70年代初，较低的机票价格是英国人出国度假的主要原因。
13．答案与解析：D 词义猜测题。根据划线词前半句“In the 1980s and 1990s, young people in the UK became more wealthy，和后句“As a result, young people started to go abroad in groups, to places such as Spain and Greece.”可知，英国年轻人更加富有，因此他们拥有更多的可自由使用的收入。所以disposable为“可自由使用的”之意，与available for use同义。
14．答案与解析：B 细节理解题。根据第四段第一句“British holidaying habits have begun to change, however. Climate change means that the UK now has a warmer climate than before, so people don't always feel they need to go overseas to find good weather.”可知，气候变化影响了英国人度假习惯的变化。
15．答案与解析：B 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The UK has always been famous for its international explorers, but now it is starting to discover itself.”可知，有更多的英国人转为国内游，因此作者对英国国内旅游业持乐观态度。

Photographs allow one to perfectly remember how a certain memory looked in great detail. From journaling daily for over a year, I have found that writing daily has allowed me to perfectly remember a feeling.
My journaling journey began when I took a creative writing class at my local community college. Our teacher had a required journaling element (部分) in which we had to buy a notebook and aim to write every day about anything we wished.
At first, writing daily was a boring task. I was always trying to find things to write about. I wrote on what I did that day or some news I found online.
People say it takes 21 days to form a habit, and I can prove that they are correct. After the first month or so, I would wake up every morning looking forward to making my cup of coffee, sitting down at my desk and writing down everything that happened the previous day. And I have been doing it ever since.
Passing the one year mark, I have now filled up almost five journals. This morning, I reread every single one of them and was moved to tears. I can see the ways in which I have changed and grown as a person.
Many people complain that they have nothing to write about or they simply don't have the time to pick up the practice of journaling. I am here to tell you to banish thoughts that your life is not interesting enough or you don't have enough time—you have thoughts, emotions and experiences that are worthwhile. One day, you will want to remember something as simple as how you felt when you woke up on Sunday morning.
1．Why does the author mention photographs in Paragraph 1
A．To show the importance of recording.
B．To bring up the topic of journaling.
C．To encourage readers to practice photographing.
D．To prove that photographing differs from journaling.
2．The author began journaling because ________．
A．it was the task of her writing class
B．she had interesting things to write about
C．she wanted to improve her writing skills
D．her teacher asked her to find a way to practice writing
3．How did the author find journaling at the end of the first month
A．It was eye opening.
B．It was a very boring task.
C．It was something she expected to do.
D．It was more difficult than she had thought.
4．What does the underlined word “banish” in the last paragraph probably mean
A．Go over. B．Figure out.
C．Drive away. D．Write down.
B
As we all know, science is blooming more strongly than ever. Recently, NASA astronaut Scott Kelly showed a photo of the orange zinnia (百日菊) on Twitter. It is the first flower to ever bloom in space and has attracted much attention all over the world. This may be the most exciting news in the field of science. The zinnia in the picture is so beautiful and looks similar to that on earth. Kelly cared for it for more than a month.
The Veggie plant growth facility chose the zinnia flower species because it has a longer growth cycle. As a result, it can help scientists understand how plants flower and develop in microgravity (微重力).
“While the plants haven't grown perfectly，” said Gioia Massa, NASA science team leader for Veggie, “I think we have gained a lot from this, and we are learning both more about plants and fluids and also how better to operate between ground and the station.”
This was not the first time that scientists had attempted to grow zinnia in space. Other astronauts aboard the International Space Station (ISS) began growing the colorful flowers last year. However, due to high humidity (湿度) and low air movement in space, the zinnia leaked (渗透) water out of the tips of the leaves. What was worse, the spread of harmful bacteria was destroying its growth badly. Kelly then took over the operation and began taking care of the zinnia as he would in his own garden.
The ISS also successfully grew red romaine lettuce in July 2015. Kelly even took a bite of the harvested plants and posted the photo on his Twitter. NASA's new experiment using the Veggie plant growth system will be started later. Astronauts will attempt to grow Chinese cabbages. The space agency will then attempt to grow dwarf tomatoes in 2018.
5．Why does the zinnia cause public concern
A．It is the first life to be found in space.
B．It is the first plant to ever grow in space.
C．It is the first zinnia to ever grow in space.
D．It is the first flower to ever bloom in space.
6．Why did scientists choose to grow the zinnia
A．It was easy to grow.
B．Astronauts liked it most.
C．Other plants died in space.
D．It lived longer than other flowers.
7．What can we learn from the text
A．More plants will grow in space.
B．The conditions in space are good for plant growth.
C．Scott Kelly isn't experienced in planting flowers.
D．Gioia Massa doesn't think much of the experiment.
8．Where does the text probably come from
A．A news report.
B．A research plan.
C．An advertisement.
D．A science textbook.
Ⅱ.七选五
Some people say “We shouldn't waste money on space exploration when there are so many problems to deal with here on Earth.” This can be a difficult topic to find your way around, so we've outlined a few ideas here that you can share when supporting space exploration.
Space spending pays off.
Money spent on NASA positively impacts the U.S. economy. __1__ And it creates business opportunities that feed back into the economy. This in turn grows the pool of public money that can be spent on solving the world's most pressing problems.
__2__
Studying how we might grow food in orbit or on Mars provides new ideas for growing food in extreme conditions on Earth. Medical research conducted on the International Space Station helps us understand the human body in new ways. __3__
Space is inspiring.
Not every child who dreams of becoming an astronaut will get that opportunity. __4__ But to be inspired to aim for something so amazing gives kids the motivation (动力) to study hard in science, engineering, or other fields. __5__ When we are amazed at the beauty of Jupiter's clouds or the mystery of Enceladus' oceans, we get an opportunity to appreciate the wonder of this planet that we live on.
A．And inspiration isn't just for kids.
B．Spending on space supports highly skilled jobs.
C.Space research directly impacts earthly problems.
D.Space research isn't as expensive as people think.
E．And it helps save lives and improve quality of life.
F．This is a sad truth that many of us know from experience.

[2022·山东省临沂市高一下学期期中]Beijing (AP) Three Chinese astronauts returned to Earth on Saturday after six months aboard their country's newest orbital station in the longest crewed mission to date for China's ambitious space program.
The Shenzhou 13 space capsule landed in the Gobi desert in the northern region of Inner Mongolia, shown live on CCTV. During the mission, astronaut Wang Yaping carried out the first spacewalk by a Chinese woman. Wang and crew mates Zhai Zhigang and Ye Guangfu beamed (发送) back physics lessons for high school students. China launched its first astronaut into space in 2003 and landed robot rovers on the moon in 2013 and on Mars last year. Officials have discussed a possible crewed mission to the moon.
On Saturday, CCTV showed images from inside the capsule as it traveled at 200 meters per second over Africa before entering the atmosphere. The trio (三人组) were the second crew aboard Tiangong, or Heavenly Palace. Its core module, Tianhe, was launched in April 2021. Plans call for completing construction this year by adding two more modules. Authorities have yet to announce a date for launching the next Tiangong crew.
China was the first nation to launch an astronaut into space on its own after the former Soviet Union and the United States. Tiangong is China's third space station following predecessors (前身) launched in 2011 and 2016. The government announced in 2020 that China's first reusable spacecraft had landed following a test flight.
On Tuesday, President Xi visited the launch site in Wenchang on the southern island of Hainan from which the Tianhe module was fired into orbit. “Persist in pursuing the frontiers of world aerospace development and the major strategic needs of national aerospace，” President Xi told staff at the site, all of them in military uniform.
1．How long were the 3 astronauts aboard in China's orbital station

[2022·重庆高一检测]China has successfully landed a spacecraft on Mars, state media announced early on Saturday. The six wheeled Zhurong robot was targeting Utopia Planitia, a vast land in the planet's northern hemisphere.
Zhurong, which means God of Fire, was carried to Mars on the Tianwen 1 orbiter, which arrived above the planet in February. The vehicle used a combination of a protective capsule, a parachute and a rocket platform to make the descent landing. A heat shield (保护盾) protected the spacecraft during the fiery descent (降落), after which Zhurong safely parachuted down to the Utopia Planitia. Tianwen 1's landing platform then fired some small, downward facing rocket engines to slow down during the last few seconds of its descent. The successful touchdown is a remarkable achievement, given the difficult nature of the task. Only few countries have really mastered landing on Mars until now. America put down its largest rover (巡视器), Perseverance, in February. Europe, which has twice failed with landing attempts, will send a rover to Mars next year hand in hand with the Russians. All other countries that have tried have either crashed or lost contact soon after reaching the surface.
Now that Zhurong has got down successfully, scientists will try to get at least 90 Martian days of service out of it, studying the local geology. The robot Zhurong, weighs some 240kg and is powered by fold out solar panels. Zhurong carries cameras to take pictures and assist navigation (巡航); five additional instruments will investigate the mineral resources of local rocks and the general nature of the environment, including the weather.
Dean Chang, a Chinese scientist said that the success would be an enormous fillip to the exploration of the universe, “Space always benefits diplomacy and technology, and it demonstrates that China can contribute to the global pool of human knowledge.”
5．Why was Zhurong sent to land on Mars
A．To discover living species on Mars.
B．To explore a specific area of Mars.
C．To enable more people to visit remote parts of space.
D．To exploit resources on Mars.
6．What can we infer from Paragraph 2
A．The American rover Perseverance ended up with failure.
B．Few countries master landing on the Moon.
C．Europe plans to launch its next rover with combined efforts.
D．Tianwen 1 helped to speed Zhurong up before landing.
7．After landing, Zhurong could probably do the following things EXCEPT________.
A．research into geology
B．find directions
C．take images
D．forecast the weather
8．The underlined word “fillip” in the last paragraph could be replaced with________.
A．solution B．relief
C．promotion D．honor

Letting her take the wheel
My daughter, Mia, is 16 and learning to drive. Many parents are freaked out (惊慌失措) about putting their easily distracted teenagers in charge of a fast－moving thing of glass and steel. My wife refused to teach her, leaving the task to me.
I've learned a few things. First, Mia didn't know how to drive at all. She didn't even know where to put the key. It was like watching a chimpanzee try to solve a puzzle. Worse, she couldn't remember that D was for drive, and R meant reverse (倒车).
Then came the road rules. Mia likes to sail past stop signs. I had to explain that “STOP means STOP”. Had she actually read the rule book “Yes，” she said, but she forgot most of it. “It was so boring.”
Although I had been driving her around for her whole life, she hadn't learned anything.
Despite these things, I've also learned that I enjoy teaching her. I think I'm pretty good at it. I am much calmer than I thought I would be.
I also enjoy the one－on－one time we have together. We have some good conversations. So far, we have covered her friends' hairstyles and how stressed she feels after school. I enjoyed communicating with her.
One Sunday evening, we were driving down a narrow back street, deep in conversation, when I realized that the car was moving quite fast. “SLOW DOWN！” I yelled, yanking (猛拉) the hand brake (手刹). We stopped the car and sat in the dark for a minute. “You can't go that fast，” I said. “You don't know enough yet.” I put my hand on her head, “I don't want anything to happen to you.”
“Me neither.” she said.
“Okay, cool，” I said. “Let's go.”
She started the car and we headed back home.
4．What can we know from the first two paragraphs
A.Mia knew much about driving.
B．Mia was a beginner at driving.
C．Mia never followed her parents' advice.
D．Mia was naturally skillful at driving.
5．The main reason why the author enjoys Mia teaching is that ________．

B．it helps him be calmer in daily life
C．it is more hands－on teaching
D．he can help plan her future
6．When Mia drove fast, the author felt ________．
A.angry and nervous
B．impatient and nervous
C．disappointed and caring
D．surprised and concerned
7．The story that the author taught her daughter driving implies that ________．

[2022·嘉积中学高一检测]China will give the green light to Internet medical services conducted by medical institutions as part of a broader push to promote Internet Plus Healthcare, those at a State Council executive meeting chaired by Premier Li Keqiang decided.
Medical institutions will be allowed to provide online diagnostic services for some common and chronic diseases in patients' follow－up visits to their doctors. The top levels of hospitals will be encouraged to provide online services, including consultations (会诊), reservations and test result inquiries.
As China joins the ranks of middle－income countries, the demand for health services has increased accordingly. Internet Plus Healthcare can help reduce the problem of inaccessible and expensive public health services that have long been a big concern for the general public.
One decision coming out of the meeting says the intelligent review for health insurance will be applied and the one－stop settlement will be advanced. The real－time sharing of prescription and drug retail sales will be explored, as well.
“We must waste no time in pushing forward the measures once the decisions made.” Li said. “In recent years, top－level hospitals in major cities have seen steady increases in the number of patients. Medical bills have become a heavy burden on families and high－end medical resources still fall short of meeting the growing demand of the public.”
To solve the problem, a two－pronged (双管齐下的) approach must be taken. One is to establish medical partnerships to strengthen cooperation between major hospitals and community clinics. The other is to bring forward Internet Plus Healthcare to promote the sharing of quality medical resources.
The government will see to it that long－distance healthcare services cover all county－level hospitals. So more efforts will be made to ensure that high－speed broadband network will be extended to cover medical institutions in urban and rural areas. Dedicated Internet access services will be set up to meet the needs for long－distance healthcare services.
8．According to the text, which of the following services won't a patient enjoy online
A．Receiving a medical operation.
B．Asking doctors for advice after the test.
C．Several doctors discussion about the disease.
D．Making an appointment with a doctor in advance.
9．Why is the demand for health services increasing in China
A．The expense of medical care.
B．The recognition of health insurance.
C．The improvement of people's life quality.
D．The inconvenience of hospital equipment.
10．What does Li mean by saying “We must waste no time in pushing forward the measures”？
A.The bills are impossible to afford.
B．The situations are urgent to improve.
C．The measures are perfectly worked out.
D．The hospitals are unwilling to admit patients.
11．What can be the suitable title for the text
A．Modern Hospitals
B．Online Healthcare on Its Way
C．No More Burden for General People
D．Wide Applications of Internet Service

As part of his medical training, Dr. Ricardo Pun Chong spent time doing rounds in hospitals throughout Lima, the capital of Peru. Day after day, he noticed families curling up (蜷作一团) on the floors. Many of them, he learned, had come from faraway villages, with little or no money, to get medical treatment for their children. Far from home and loved ones, and unable to pay for a place to stay in Lima, many families found themselves homeless while fighting for their children's lives.
“We have people who come from the Amazon, travel on a boat and from there take a bus. It can take many days. Just imagine having this trip with a sick kid. Once they reach the city, they don't have any resources (资源). Sometimes they don't even speak Spanish; they speak Quechua, or other dialects. These are just some of the obstacles facing these families，” said Pun Chong.
“I couldn't get the picture of the families sleeping on the floor out of my mind，” Pun Chong said. “So, I decided to do something for them.”
In 2008, he set up a shelter and a nonprofit called Inspira and to date, his organization has provided free housing, meals and overall support for sick children and their families while they undergo (接受) treatment. The organization has helped more than 900 families who've come from all over Peru.
Pun Chong, who lives a few blocks from the shelter and is there almost every day, runs the organization with the help of a small staff and an army of volunteers. He spends every holiday with the families there.
“The kids inspire me every day，” Pun Chong said. “When I'm with these kids, and I feel how strong they are, I understand that there are no problems that we can't solve.”
12．What did Pun Chong find out about poor families of sick children during his rounds
A．They slept on hospital floors.
B．They doubted what doctors said.
C．They feared to leave the hospital.
D．They refused to receive full treatment.
13．What does the underlined word “obstacles” in Paragraph 2 mean
A．Tasks. B．Threats.
C．Difficulties. D．Choices.
14．What did Pun Chong do for poor families of sick children
A．He built a shelter for them.
B．He raised money for them.
C．He found them excellent doctors.
D．He increased their awareness about child diseases.
15．How did Pun Chong feel about being with sick children
A．It takes patience.
B．It is meaningful.
C．It requires skills.
D．It is stressful.

Sunlight stimulates the brain chemical serotonin (血清素), which plays a role in helping you feel happy. While you're outdoors in the sun, use the time to exercise. __1__ And it may work better than medicine for preventing depression from returning. It can also help you reduce your anxiety.
Set yourself up for good sleep.
In the evening as the sky grows darker, your brain makes a hormone called melatonin (褪黑素).__2__ Some of your choices during the day and evening affect your melatonin levels, which in turn can play a role in how well you sleep. So it's suggested:
* Be sure to get that daily exercise in the sun, since it also helps you sleep at night.
*__3__ If your bedroom isn't completely dark, you won't make as much melatonin.
Eat“ feel－good ” foods
__4__ Keep these tips in mind：
* Focus on multicoloured whole foods that are recently alive. That means fresh vegetables, fruit, beans, and whole grains instead of processed foods.
* Make room for vegetables such as cauliflower, cabbage, and kale. __5__
* Avoid foods that make your blood sugar soar like sweetened sodas and sugary baked goods. They aren't good for your health, or your energy level.
A．Turn off the lights.
B．Turn on the lights.
C．This helps you get sleep.
D．They're super－foods for feeling good.
E．Health depends on good food, fresh air and enough sleep.
F．The way you eat makes a bit difference in whether you feel strong or weak.
G．Research has found that physical activities can work well for treating depression.UNIT 5 默写练习一

Liverpool, my hometown, is a unique city. It is so unique that in 2004 it became a World Heritage Site.
I recently returned to my home city and my first stop was at a museum on the River Mersey.Blanketed in mist, Victorian architecture rose from the banks of the river, responded to the sounds of sea birds, and appeared unbelievably charming. When I headed towards the centre, I found myself surrounded by buildings that mirror the best palaces of Europe.It is not hard to imagine why, on first seeing the city, most visitors would be overwhelmed by the beauty of the noble buildings, which are solid signs of Liverpool's history.
As if to stress its cultural role, Liverpool has more museums and galleries than most cities in Britain.At Walker Art Gallery, I was told that it has the best collections of Victorian paintings in the world, and is the home of modern art in the north of England.However, culture is more than galleries.Liverpool offers many music events.As Britain's No.1 music city, it has the biggest city music festival in Europe, and its musicians are famous all over the world.Liverpool is also well known for its football and other sports events.Every year, the Mersey River Festival attracts thousands of visitors, making the city a place of wonder.
As you would expect from such a city, there are restaurants serving food from around the world.When my trip was about to complete, I chose to rest my legs in Liverpool's famous Philharmonic pub.It is a monument (丰碑) to perfection, and a heritage attraction itself.
Being a World Heritage Site, my home city is certainly a place of“outstanding universal value”．It is a treasure house with plenty of secrets for the world to explore.

[2022·青岛高一检测]Singapore's tradition of eating out in places called hawker centers is now recognized by the United Nations for its cultural importance.
A hawker is a person who sells food or goods and advertises by shouting at people walking by on the street. Hawkers are an important part of Singaporean culture. Open air eating areas where hawkers sell their goods are very popular. Famous chefs, such as Anthony Bourdain and Gordon Ramsay have praised them.
On Wednesday, the United Nations' cultural agency, UNESCO, added the city's “hawker culture” to its Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. Singapore sought to have hawker culture added to the list about two years ago. Now that it has been recognized, Singapore must provide a report every six years to UNESCO. The report must show efforts the city state has made to save and support its hawker culture.
“These centers serve as ‘community dining rooms’， where people from diverse backgrounds gather and share the experience of dining over breakfast, lunch and dinner, ” UNESCO said.
In the 1970s, Singapore cleaned up its streets so the city moved street hawkers to new eating centers. These areas were part of an effort to improve the island. Now, the centers offer many different low cost meals for local people and provide a pleasing social setting. The 2018 film Crazy Rich Asians showed its stars enjoying meals at a famous night market. Some sellers even received Michelin stars from a famous restaurant rating system for their meals costing only a few dollars.
But, now the average age of a hawker in Singapore is 60 years old. Younger Singaporeans now want to work in offices. They are less interested in working in small restaurants. The COVID 19 health crisis also hurt sales, preventing foreign visitors and locals from eating out.
5．What do we know about hawkers from Paragraph 2
A．They sell goods in the open air area.
B．They are famous chefs.
C．They are Singapore natives.
D．They are popular all over the world.
6．Why is hawker culture added to UNESCO's list
A．For the efforts Singapore has made.
B．For its importance in showing Singapore's culture.
C．For the report Singapore provided.
D．For the recommendation by UNESCO.
7．Why is the film Crazy Rich Asians mentioned
A．To advertise the film.
B．To introduce the stars.
C．To show the popularity of hawker centers.
D．To help the sellers receive Michelin stars.
8．What is the last paragraph mainly about
A．The difficulties hawker culture is facing.
B．The average age of hawkers.
C．The effect caused by COVID 19.
D．The future of the hawker culture.

[2022·河北省沧衡八校联盟]Having the blues, I was driving aimlessly. Unexpectedly, no one remembered my birthday. I decided to take myself out for a birthday celebration to have breakfast by the time I arrived at my destination.
On arrival, I followed a couple of ladies into the cafe and waited to get a menu. One lady asked the waiter to help find one table for them. But the cafe was rather full then. There was only one left in the corner. Then, the lady asked me if I got my own table. I said, “I think you could get your own and I could wait for a smaller one, as I'm here to celebrate my birthday alone.” The lady immediately suggested that we share a table together. At that moment, I thought that was a lovely idea and nodded my head.
I went to pay for my meal and a drink. But I was told it had been paid for. On sitting at the table, I offered to pay for their meal and was told that I didn't have to pay on my birthday. That was a simple gift for me from the ladies who I just met for the first time, which really touched my heart.
We had a beautiful 40 minutes together and we shared many topics before they had to continue on their journey. It was more than I could have expected for the day. “Thank you! Ladies Beck and Shayne, my lovely angels for the day. I would never forget this unique birthday. At our parting, they also inspired me to share my kindness, wisdom or knowledge to those who need it.

[2022·河南省安阳阶段性考试]If you want to take good care of your eyes and vision, I encourage you to adopt the habit of blinking (眨眼) softly as often as possible. Frequent and gentle blinking is important to maintain healthy eyes and good vision because it helps to keep your eyes coated with three beneficial layers (层) of tears.
The first layer of tears lies right up against the whites of your eyes, and provides an even coat of protein rich moisture (水分) for the second layer to stick to. The middle watery layer helps to wash away foreign dust. It also provides your eyes with minerals, a variety of proteins, and moisture. The third outer layer of tears is somewhat oily. It serves to prevent the middle watery layer from drying quickly, and smooths your eyes.
If your eyes are not regularly coated with the three layers of tears described above, they will be short of moisture and cleaning, and they will be unnecessarily tired.
One of the reasons why many of us don't blink as often as we should is that we don't see frequent blinking in mainstream media. Actors and news presenters are typically trained to blink as infrequently as possible, so when we take in most forms of media, our minds learn that it isn't normal to blink frequently.
To fully support your eyes and vision, it's best to blink softly every two to four seconds, which translates to about fifteen to thirty blinks per minute. By making an effort to softly blink at this rate, over time, your body will turn your efforts into a habit. If you're thinking that such frequent blinking will make reading a book or viewing a movie uncomfortable, give it a try and you'll see right away that it doesn't take away from these experiences at all.

Research has shown that people tend to get more happiness from spending their money on experiences, such as travel and entertainment, than on things, purchased (购买的) experience itself Or does the happiness come more from expecting or remembering the experience
A new study, published in the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, offers an answer. Our experiential purchases bring us greater pleasure in terms of expectation and remembrance than do our material purchases, but they also bring us greater in the moment enjoyment, the study found.
For the study, the researchers recruited (招募) 2，635 adults who agreed to receive tests at any time during the day. The tests began with a happiness question, which asked the participants (参与者) to rate how they felt “right now” on a scale from very bad to very good. Half of them were then asked if they had made a material purchase within the past hour, such as clothing or electronic goods. The others were asked if they had made an experiential purchase within the past hour, such as eating in a restaurant or attending a concert.
The researchers found that the purchasers of the experiences express higher levels of happiness than the purchasers of the material goods, no matter how much the purchases cost.
To address possible differences in types of purchasers, the researchers conducted a second study in which they researched more than 5，000 adults. “We still observed the__same__result，” said Amit Kumar, the study's lead author.
The researchers said a possible explanation is the endurance (持久) of experiences in people's memories, while the observed value of material goods weakens over time.
“If you want to be happier, it might be wise to shift (转变) some of your spending away from material goods and a bit more toward experiences.” Kumar said. “That would likely lead to greater happiness.”
12．Why does the author put forward two questions in Paragraph 1
A．To make a fact clear.
B．To introduce a new study.
C．To compare different research.
D．To doubt the opinion presented.
13．Why did the researchers test the participants
A.To ask them about their spending plans.
B．To understand their needs and spending habits.
C．To find out the change in their purchasing choices.
D．To monitor their purchasing behavior and emotions.
14．What do the underlined words “the same result” in Paragraph 5 refer to
A．The desire to purchase things weakens over time.
B．People are more willing to spend money on things.
C．People get more pleasure from spending money than making it.
D．Experiential purchases bring more happiness than material ones.
15．What did Kumar think people should do in the last paragraph
A．Spend more on experiences.
B．Make future spending decisions.
C．Be happy with what they have bought.
D．Consider its value when buying a product.

With the help of the car manufacturer (汽车制造商) Hyundai, a 13－year－old girl was able to send a message to space, where her dad works on the International Space Station (ISS).
“He gets to live and work in space and he is doing lots of experiments up there. He has to stay there for long periods of time... I miss him when he is gone, ” Stephanie, who is from Houston, Texas, said in a video. “I think if we could write a really big message he would be able to see it from space. ”
Hyundai took her wish to heart and decided to take on the challenge. Using Nevada's Delamar Dry Lake as a canvas (画布), 11 drivers drove Hyundai cars, spelling out “Steph?s you” across 2.14 square miles of desert. A promotional video, which Hyundai made to record the process, caught her father's response and showed the picture he took of her message from the ISS.
“I am happy that he could see it and knows that we are thinking about him back home, ” Stephanie said. “He has seen so many things up there, but I hope that this message was the most special. ”
There are many misunderstandings about what can and cannot be seen from space. Contrary to popular belief, the Great Wall of China cannot be seen from space, but many seemingly less important things can be seen.

[2022·福建师大附中高一期末]When it comes to who is happier, people with kids or those without, most research points to the latter. But a new study suggests that parents are happier than non－parents later in life, when their children move out and become sources of social enjoyment rather than stress.
Most surveys of parental happiness have focused on those whose children still live at home. These tend to show that people with kids are less happy than their child－free peers because they have less free time, sleep and money.
Christoph Becker at Heidelberg University in Germany and his colleagues wondered if the story might be different for parents whose kids have left home. To find out, they analyzed data from a European survey that asked 55，000 people aged 50 and older about their emotional well－being.
They found that, in this older age group, people with children had greater life satisfaction and fewer symptoms of depression than people without children, but only if their kids had left home.
“This may be because when children grow up and move out, they provide social enrichment to their parents minus (抵消) the day－to－day stress of looking after them，” says Becker. They may also give something back by providing care and financial support to their parents, he says. “Hence, children's role as caregivers, financial support or simply as social contact might outweigh negative aspects of parenthood，” he says.
If parents disobey the idea of waiting for their kids to move out to maximize their potential happiness, they could move to a country with better childcare support, says Becker. A 2016 study of 22 countries found that parents with children at home were actually slightly happier than their child－free peers if they lived in places like Norway, Portugal and Sweden that have paid parental leave and generous childcare subsidies (补助).
5．Why did Christoph Becker and his colleagues analyze data from a European survey
A．To show their opinions are different.
B．To prove the earlier findings are wrong.
C．To prove if parents can be happier under certain conditions.
D．To figure out old people's emotional well－being.
6．According to the new study, what is the key point of parental happiness
A．Whether the kids have moved out or not.
B．Which country they choose to live in.
C．Whether kids are to play roles of caregivers.
D．Whether parents are willing to wait for kids' growth.
7．How can people with kids at home achieve more happiness according to Becker
A．Moving to another country without trouble from kids.
B．Asking their kids to move out as soon as possible.
C．Living in a country with better policies on childcare.
D．Paying for parental leave, generous childcare subsidies.
8．What is the main idea of this passage
A．How people can achieve happiness in their life.
B．People without children are happier than those with kids.
C．Why people have greater life satisfaction in their older age.
D．Parents whose children have left home feel happier than non－parents.

A North Allegheny senior brings together voices from around the world as part of an online magazine that gives people a chance to share their cultural experiences. Eleanor Park, 16, of McCandless set up The Diversity Story a year ago. People can apply to be staff writers, be interviewed to have an article written about them, or submit (提交) writing, artwork, and photography.
Ms. Park, who plans to study psychology in college, said she came up with the idea for the project after talking with a friend from China. “We had been exchanging English lessons for computer science classes last summer，” she said. “While we taught each other, we often talked about our daily lives. Since I grew up among a lot of Chinese cultures that my parents had passed down, I thought I was really familiar with its ins and outs. But it turned out that there was so much I did not fully understand.”
North Allegheny elementary principal(校长) Amanda Mathieson, Ph.D., said Ms. Park showed great leadership and compassion (同情) for other students. She was a judge in The Diversity Story writing competition. “Eleanor's work and goals over the years have focused on helping English as a Second Language students and encouraging culture sharing in the community. She is a great young person, and I am so lucky to have been part of her educational journey.”
Peyton Klein, founder and director of Global Minds Initiative, which she formed in 2016 as an Allderdice student, said：“Her growing thoughtful project and clear ability to encourage young people are the things we hope to inspire.”

Chinese New Year has been welcomed in Britain with its biggest ever program of events and celebrations.
From London's Trafalgar Square to major cities across Britain, tens of thousands of British people have joined Chinese communities to celebrate the arrival of the Year of the Rooster.
In Manchester there was a Dragon Parade (舞龙活动), led by a very impressive 54 meter long dragon, ending in Chinatown where there was traditional Chinese entertainment, more than 6, 000 lanterns, street food villages and a fireworks show. Celebrations also took place in Liverpool, Birmingham, Lake District, Durham, Edinburgh, Leeds and Newcastle.
Academic Dr. Wu Kegang said that the Chinese New Year event in Britain “is now bigger than ever and it is growing every year. ”
When Wu arrived in Britain 26 years ago from Guangdong, south China, the first thing he noticed was that Chinese New Year was celebrated mainly in towns and cities with big Chinese communities. “You would go to London Chinatown and join your countrymen to celebrate, or to Chinatowns in places like Liverpool and Manchester for events almost only held for Chinese people.” Wu recalled.
“Now it is so different, and we are seeing local communities all over the country taking part alongside their own Chinese populations, ” he said. “It is clear to me that the celebrations will continue to grow in Britain. Chinese New Year has earned its place in the calendar of events in Britain, and is here to stay. ”

[2022·中山高一检测]Many of us wonder what lies in outer space. When we look up at the night sky, we see stars, the twinkle of a moving satellite and occasionally a distant planet. But one thing we don't see is the millions of pieces of junk filling up space. It's this debris (废弃物) that's causing problems for the existing technology that's up there and which we rely on.
The amount of space junk is increasing. Over the last few decades, satellites and rockets have been launched into space, littering the cosmos (宇宙) as they go. It's estimated there are now millions of thrown away pieces of metal and other materials in orbit—everything from old rocket pieces to accidentally dropped astronaut tools, and even flecks of paint. The fear is that if we don't start taking this debris out of the sky soon, it will become a great danger to active satellites. Nobu Okada, Chief Executive of Astroscale—a company working on ways to clean up space junk—says hitting “even a small paint fleck... has enough power to blow up other satellites.”
Several ideas are being looked at to collect the debris floating around in space. In 2018, the Remove Debris spacecraft carried out various experiments, including testing a net that could catch a satellite or firing a harpoon at a target in orbit to try to catch it.
This year the UK Space Agency is helping to fund new approaches to tracking satellites and debris in space. Jacob Geer from UKSA told the BBC: “Space surveillance (监视) and tracking is one of the key things we can do to keep safe those satellites we rely on now, and to make sure certain orbits don't become inaccessible (无法接近的) for future generations because there's too much debris in them.
It's clear that something must be done to achieve a deep clean in space. But looking to the future, like any litter problem, we need to look at ways of creating less—and that shouldn't be the stuff of science fiction.
4．Which of the following items is space junk
A.Metal stuff.
B．Old rocket pieces in the orbit.
C．Tools in the spaceship.
D．Paint on a spaceship.
5．What problem can space junk cause according to Paragraph 2
A．Small paint of fleck will blow away satellites.
B．Active satellites will be in danger.
C．It will be impossible to clean up.
D．It will lead to disasters on the earth.
6．According to Jacob Geer, what makes orbits inaccessible for future generations
A．Too much man made satellites.
B．Too much population.
C．Too much space activities.
D．Too much debris in space orbits.
7．Which of the following is not helpful in solving the debris problem
A．Stopping reading science fictions.
B．Carrying out a thorough space cleaning.
C．Creating less space junk from now on.
D．Using space surveillance and tracking system.

If asked whether space exploration should continue, most Americans would give an immediate response either in favour of continuing or in favour of ending space exploration. A common response would be that space exploration is a waste of money. An average American, uneducated on the subject, might believe that the government is wasting billions of dollars on the research that has no value.Someone ignorant of the subject might say that a space shuttle goes up once in a while and that is about all that happens.Research is ongoing and continues when there are no shuttles being launched. This also costs the government money.Does the extreme cost of space exploration make sense
One argument is that the government is wasting money on the research not being used on Earth.Actually, the money goes to workers and scientists that support National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) missions, and goes to major companies that play important roles in major sectors of the US economy.Boeing is a partner of NASA for aircraft, the same company that makes commercial aircraft for the airline industry.
Another benefit of continuing space exploration is the many spin off technologies (衍生技术) it provides. The artificial heart resulted from experiments on the space shuttle. The handheld Jaws of Life used to save victims from car accidents originated from the system used to separate the space shuttle from its booster rockets.Insulation in homes that keeps them warm and energy efficient is based on the technology used to insulate the space shuttle.
There are direct benefits to the economy provided by NASA missions as well as spin off technologies. These advances are found in food, building materials, medical procedures and the vehicles we drive.While it can be proven that billions of dollars that could be used elsewhere is being spent on space exploration, the benefits it provides outweigh the negative aspects.As a matter of fact, the money spent helps to improve the quality of our lives.
8．How is Paragraph 2 mainly developed
A．By listing data.
B．By offering analysis.
C．By giving some examples.
D．By presenting research findings.
9．What is the function of Jaws of Life
A．To save people from traffic accidents.
B．To do experiments on the space shuttle.
C．To keep houses warm and energy efficient.
D．To separate the space shuttle from its booster rockets.
10．What does the author think of space exploration
A．It has changed our life completely.
B．It costs too much money.
C．It has nothing to do with us.
D．It benefits us in many ways.
11．What would be the best title for the text
A．Benefits of Space Exploration
B．Is Space Exploration Worth the Cost
C．How to Make Space Exploration Affordable
D．Missions of the NASA Space Shuttle Programme

[2022·贵州省高一下学期联考]When did you last stop to look at a tree Really look at it, not merely notice it. Trees play such an important role in our lives and yet day to day we often don't even notice them; we often take them for granted. Yet if you are looking to strengthen your grounds, reduce pollution around your school, improve your children's health and wellbeing and develop your science subject, then planting trees is certainly the way forward.
The first and most obvious benefit of starting a tree planting program is the environmental impact. Children are enthusiastic，and often highly knowledgeable about climate change and the main causes of it. They are also interested in projects that can make a difference to their community's carbon footprints. Planting trees is an easy and long lasting way to involve pupils and to have a positive impact on the climate.
A tree planting program also offers teachers the opportunity to discuss biodiversity (生物多样性) and gives pupils the chance to get involved in an actual example. It's a real life science experiment and will provide children with amazing habitats to study in science lessons for years to come.
Planting trees can also have a positive impact on children's mental health. One in four people in the UK will experience mental health issues at some point in their lives and one in 10 children aged 5 16 have a diagnosable (可诊断的) mental health condition, according to The Children's Society. Mental health is a complex issue with many causal factors and no simple solutions. However, according to the Mental Health Foundation, the opportunity to play and learn in outdoor environments has been quoted in research studies as a significantly positive influence.
Being active will also improve children's general health and wellbeing, as well as increasing engagement more generally by providing an enjoyable context for learning. Parents and the community, too, will enjoy the improved beauty of the school grounds.
12．What can children do to contribute to the community's efforts to cut carbon footprints
A．Reduce their daily activities.
B．Attend tree planting projects.
C．Learn more about climate change.
D．Encourage more people to take action.
13．How can a tree planting program benefit teachers
A．By making their classes livelier.
B．By supplying them with habitats to study.
C．By providing them with real examples of biodiversity.
D．By giving them chances to communicate with students.
14．What can we infer from Paragraph 4
A．Outdoor activities can benefit children's mental health.
B．Children's playtime is reducing gradually in recent years.
C．Planting trees is a perfect way to improve the environment.
D．Few people in the UK pay much attention to mental health.
15．What can be the best title for the text
A．How can schools get involved in tree planting projects
B．Children need more care from their teachers.
C．Why should schools be planting trees
D．Schools should set up new classes.

There are many costs of having a negative attitude in the workplace. Employees who don't feel appreciated work less productively. They can have conflicts with other members. Negative bosses spread their bad feelings to employees. Here are some ways to develop a positive spirit in your workplace.
Be a model of kindness and respect. Employees look up to their bosses for an example of how to behave in the workplace.__1__ It is far better to be patient, kind, and respectful. This is a great way to bring positivity to the workplace.
__2__ When employees are thanked for their good work, it gives them a warm feeling. Everyone likes to be appreciated, and employees often toil (辛苦工作) for years without being thanked for their hard work. Even “thank you” and a hand shake go a long way toward making an employee feel appreciated.
Make goals clear for everyone. Having a concrete goal to work toward gives employees direction and positivity in the workplace. Employees like to know that their hard work is directed toward a particular end.__3__ This can be as simple as expressing your pride during a staff meeting.
Put on a smile. Even if you're having a difficult day, you can spread positivity by smiling. When a boss is smiling, their employees find reasons to smile, too.__4__
Have an office wellness program. Have your human resources staff arrange a fitness program for your employees.__5__ Don't be punitive (惩罚性的) and tiring. Letting your employees have a break to relax will make them happier and more productive.
A．Make it fun.
B．Encourage communication.
C．Have an attitude of gratitude.
D．When the goals are reached, have a little celebration.
E．When employees are not listened to, they feel unappreciated.
F．If the boss is disrespectful, that will become part of the company culture.
G．Dealing with a boss who is always serious makes the employees difficult to work with.课时作业(六) UNIT 2 Section Ⅳ Reading for Writing

[2022·湖北省高一下学期期中]Nelson Mandela was born in South Africa on July 18, 1918 and he is the first Black president of South Africa. Mandela was awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace in 1993.
In 1944, Mandela joined the African National Congress (ANC) and became a leader of its Youth League. That same year he married Evelyn Ntoko Mase. In 1952, Mandela established South Africa's first black law practice. From 1964 to 1982 Mandela was kept at Robben Island Prison (监狱). He was then kept at the Pollsmoor Prison until 1990, when, after being treated for bad health, he was moved to the Victor Verster Prison. Throughout his incarceration between 1964 and 1990, Mandela gained wide support among South Africa's black people.
On February 11, 1990, the South African government set Mandela free from prison. Shortly after gaining freedom, Mandela was chosen deputy president (副总统)of the ANC and he became president of the party in July 1991.
In April, 1994, the Mandela－led ANC won South Africa's first election (选举) and on May 10, Mandela became president of the country. Mandela gave up his post with the ANC in December 1997. After leaving office, Mandela retired from active politics but maintained a strong international presence as an advocate of peace and social justice.
Mandela Day was created to honour his contributions to promoting peace and justice around the world. It was first observed on July 18, 2009. Later that year the United Nations declared that the day would be observed every year as Nelson Mandela International Day. Mandela's writings were collected in I Am Prepared to Die (1964), No Easy Walk to Freedom (1965), The Struggle Is My Life (1978), and In His Om Words (2003). The book Long Walk to Freedom, which records his early life and years in prison, was published in 1994.

[2022·湖北省鄂州市高一下学期期中]As workers return to the office, friends meet up and religious services move from online to in person, people are wondering whether they should shake hands or not.
When the COVID 19 pandemic first began, an event planning business in Kansas City began selling “I Shake Hands” stickers (标签). The words were meant to make social situations easier.
“We didn't want the sticker to say‘We Don't Shake Hands’because that is kind of off putting (令人气恼的)，” said John DeLeon, vice president of operations. DeLeon added that those who did not want to shake hands with others could simply choose not to wear a sticker.
The handshake has been around for centuries. A widely held belief is that it started as a way to show that a person was offering peace and not holding a hidden weapon. But hands have germs (细菌).
Dr. Anthony Fauci is America's leading infectious disease expert. Last year, he warned，“I don't think we should ever shake hands again, to be honest with you.”
Dr. Amesh Adalja, another infectious disease expert, does not agree. He thinks people are overthinking the question of whether to shake hands or not. The answer, he says, is simple.
“If you are worried about COVID 19, the best way to make handshakes safe is to be fully vaccinated (接种疫苗)，” Dr. Adalja said.
Business Law Southwest advises businesses in New Mexico, Arizona and Texas. At the beginning of the pandemic, it offered to help create new workplace rules—such as a no handshake policy. But there was not enough interest, said Kristy Donahue, a company spokeswoman.“At the end of the day，”Donahue said，“people long for human interaction and human touch.”
5．What did John DeLeon think of “We Don't Shake Hands” sticker
A．It's funny. B．It's important.
C．It's acceptable. D．It's unnecessary.
6．Who was against the practice of shaking hands
A.John DeLeon. B．Anthony Fauci.
C．Amesh Adalja. D．Diane Gottsman.
7．What do we learn about no handshake policy
A．It was widely adopted.
B．It was not well received.
C．It was supported by Kristy Donahue.
D．It was put forward by Diane Gottsman.
8．What would be the best title for the text
A．Shaking Hands—A Thing of the Past.
B．Shaking Hands—Old Habits Die Hard.
C．To Shake Hands or Not to Shake Hands
D．Why Is It Difficult to Give up Handshaking

Frances Connolly and her husband, Patrick, were living in a rented house in Moira, County Down when, on New Year's Day 2019, they won the EuroMillions jackpot of ￡114.9 million, making them the UK's fourth biggest ever lottery (抽彩给奖) winners.
But far from heading off to shop until they dropped, or sailing off in a super yacht (游艇), the Connollys determined from the start to share their fortune. They bought a five bed red brick house near Hartlepool and set about giving away the rest of their fortune.
The need to help others is always important to the Connollys. Before the win Patrick ran plastics company Bishop Auckland Custom Profiles, while Frances worked for years at the Aycliffe Young People's Centre. Then Frances went back to school to get a teaching qualification (资格), before lecturing on child development at Hartlepool College of Further Education and helping students slower at learning.
After their win, the couple set up two charities, the PFC Trust, to help local people in Hartlepool, and the Kathleen Graham Trust, to help people in Northern Ireland, where they were both born.
Their focus has been to help people to develop new skills and gain confidence, so they donated to Hartlepool's The Poolie Time Exchange, which offers advice on money management and exchanges of skills and knowledge.
In Northern Ireland, the Connollys bought new machines for charity workers who were making personal protective equipment as well as sending food parcels to people sheltering alone, and funded a befriending service for those living alone.
It's a busy life. “I start every morning at 6 a．m. with messages and emails，” says Frances. “Patrick makes me breakfast and then I keep working, with perhaps a break for a swim. The aim was to set up the organization so that others could run it, but during the early days everything went through us.”
1．What did the Connollys do for themselves with their fortune
A．They enjoyed an ocean trip.
B．They bought an average house.
C．They started several businesses.
D．They changed their bed for a larger one.
2．What do we know about the Connollys
A．They were already rich before their win.
B．They are determined to live an easy life.
C．They are always ready to help people in need.
D．They found it hard to share their large fortune.
3．How did the Kathleen Graham Trust help people in Northern Ireland
A．By sending food to charity groups.
B．By providing a shelter for the homeless.
C．By communicating with those living alone.
D．By donating new machines to charity workers.
4．What can we infer from the last paragraph
A．Many locals come to the Connollys for help.
B．The Connollys are too busy to enjoy their lives.
C．The Connollys' charity was run by themselves at first.
D．Many people offered to help the Connollys run their charity.

We often hear honesty is the best policy，and no one likes to be called a liar. But is dishonesty always wrong？Not necessarily.
According to psychologists，there are two types of lies：lies that help your relationships and the people around you are called prosocial lies；and lies that hurt them are called antisocial lies.
How often have you clicked “Like” on Wechat Moment，not because you actually like what your friends posted，but because you want to show your support？This white lie is an example of a prosocial lie. But when people tell lies on social networks to make their own lives seem more exciting，or to make others jealous，this is antisocial lying.
Workplace lies range from harmless lies to destructive untruthful statements. An example of a prosocial workplace lie is complimenting someone on their presentation—even though it was only average—because you know they were nervous beforehand.In this case your intention is simply to protect your colleague's feelings. However，people sometimes tell bigger lies at work for the purpose of avoiding blame or to stay on the boss's good side.These are antisocial lies. They are antisocial because your boss is likely to discover the truth and as a result，will probably stop trusting you.
Lying is also a significant part of the natural world.So it's little wonder we resort__to it almost reflexively. Human babies sometimes pretend to cry，check to see if anyone is listening，and then start crying again.By the age of five，children learn to say things that are completely untrue，and most nine year olds have mastered keeping secrets to protect themselves.
Lying can be incredibly harmful to our relationships and to the people around us.But that's only true for antisocial lies.Prosocial lies have the opposite effect—they can actually help us.
5．What may help us tell a prosocial lie from an antisocial lie
A．The purpose it serves.
B．The way it is told.
C．The occasion where it is told.
D．The people it is told to.
6．What does the underlined phrase “resort to” in Paragraph 5 mean
A．Admit to. B．Turn to.
C．Show respect to. D．Look forward to.
7．Which statement is supported by the passage
A．We usually tell prosocial lies to protect our own feelings.
B．Lying always hurts both the liar and the person being lied to.
C．Lying on social media is prosocial，but face to face lying isn't.
D．Sometimes，making people feel good outweighs telling the absolute truth.
8．Which might be the best title of the passage
A．Lies That Harm Us
B．Lying is A Second Nature
C．Lies That We Need to Tell
D．Honesty is the Best Policy

In 2017, Titli Trust began working with Tehri Forest Division to arm the local community—with knowledge—through a program named Living with Leopards (豹). The forest officials made a study trip to Mumbai to learn from their experiences there.
“Our Mumbai trip has taught us that we need to change the focus from leopards to people，” says Dr Koko Rose from the Tehri Forest Division. This meant reaching out to villagers to share measures they could take to minimize (最小化) the chances of meeting a leopard or being attacked. They include clearing bushes around homes to minimize hiding spaces for leopards, leaving a light on at night, and ensuring people, especially children, did not go out alone at night. The strategies are carefully aimed at a leopard's known habits: they are shy, tend to avoid human beings, and are more active at night.
Forest officials also went to schools and launched a children's ambassador program, where children dressed up as leopards and performed for their parents in order to create more understanding of why leopards come near their homes, and how to stay safe.
These efforts seemed effective. In the four years before the program started, there were 45 cases of human－leopard conflict in the Tehri area, among them 10 human deaths. Now, the number went down to 14 and four human deaths. “Our ancestors tell us how they have lived in the forests, grazed (放牧) the animals in the forests, but the leopard has never attacked them，” says Meena, a local villager, “So we too can live with leopards, if we remain watchful and follow the rules.”
1．What did the forest officials learn from the study trip
A．The community could be armed.
B．People were more attractive than leopards.
C．What people could do to help mattered more.
D.They could reach out to the villagers for help.
2．What is basis of the strategies
A．The leopard's shy nature.
B．The forest officials' opinion.
C．The villagers' measures.
D．The geographic features.
3．What did the school children do to help
A．They didn't go out at night.
B．They learnt how to stay safe.
C．They dressed up to drive leopards away.
D．They performed to teach their parents.
4．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A．Leopards — Shy Animals
B．Learning to Live with Leopards Again
C．Cooperating in Protection of Wildlife
D．Measures to Reduce Leopard Movements

Sweetest Day in America is always the third Saturday in October. This holiday is much more important in some regions than in others (Detroit，Cleveland and Buffalo being the biggest Sweetest Day cities).It is a holiday that is gaining in popularity every year throughout the country.
Sweetest Day is celebrated on the third Saturday in October as a day to make someone happy. It is an occasion which offers all of us an opportunity to remember not only the sick，aged，and orphaned，but also friends，relatives and associates whose helpfulness and kindness we have enjoyed.
Over 60 years ago，a man in Cleveland，believing that the city's orphans and shut－ins(卧病在床的人) too often felt that they were forgotten and neglected，thought of the idea of showing them that they were remembered. He did this through the distribution of small gifts. With the help of his friends and neighbors，he distributed these small remembrances on a Saturday in October. During the years that followed，other Clevelanders began to participate in the celebration ceremony，which came to be called “Sweetest Day”．In time，the Sweetest Day idea of spreading cheer to the poor was broadened to include everyone，and became an occasion for remembering others with a kind act or a small remembrance. And soon the idea spread to other cities all over the country.
Sweetest Day is not based on any single group's religious affection or on a family relationship. It is a reminder that a thoughtful word or deed enriches life and gives it meaning. Because for many people remembering others takes the form of giving gifts，Sweetest Day offers us the opportunity to show others that we care，in a practical way.
5．We can learn from the first paragraph that Sweetest Day is ________．
A．sometimes the third Saturday in October
B．hardly celebrated in Detroit
C．of equal importance in every part of the USA
D．getting increasingly popular in the USA
6．Sweetest Day was intended to remember ________．
A．the young and the disabled
B．friends and relatives
C．orphans and shut－ins
D．the sick and the aged
7．We can infer from the passage that the birthplace of Sweetest Day is ________．
A．Detroit B．Cleveland
C．Buffalo D．Washington
8．Now on Sweetest Day gifts are given to those ________．
A．we care about B．we admire
C．in need of help D．in trouble
