The Virtue I Value Most
There are many virtues we should value to live a meaningful life,such as kindness,wisdom,courage,justice and so on.However,what I value most is honesty.
As the saying goes,“Honesty is the best policy.” This is absolutely true.As one of the core socialist values,honesty is the fundamental factor on which all human relationships are based.Without honesty,our society will be filled with lies and fake products.As a result,nobody can be trusted and nothing can be achieved.
My fellow students,let's always be honest.An honest person will win friends,an honest company will win customers,and an honest country will win the respect from the whole world.
片段1
Disappointment and embarrassment written in her burning face,she felt tears began to well up in her eyes.In bitter disappointment and desperation,she ran swiftly to her room and locked herself in.Embarrassment and the feeling of failure flooding over her,she threw herself into the bed,weeping wildly.
她火辣辣的脸上写满了失望和尴尬,她感到眼里开始涌出泪水。带着极度的失望和绝望,她迅速跑回自己的房间,把自己锁在里面。尴尬和失败的感觉淹没了她,她扑倒在床上,大哭起来。
片段2
His teeth were chattering,and with unstoppable rage in his eyes,he was like an angry lion.He went purple with anger,but he didn't scream in anger as usual.He just glared at me silently.His staring eyes really frightened me.I swallowed nervously,licked my lips and looked away.
他的牙齿咯咯作响,眼中充满无法抑制的愤怒,他就像一头愤怒的狮子。他气得脸色发紫,但没有像往常一样愤怒地大叫。他只是默默地瞪着我。他瞪着的眼睛真的吓到我了。我紧张地咽了口唾沫,舔了舔嘴唇,然后看向别处。

Ever wanted to learn a new language Or maybe you need to speak a different language,for work or personal reasons Here are some apps that will help you talk smartly in some nations on earth.
Living Language (Spanish)
The standard bearer for language-learning apps,this series of apps from Random House Digital presents real language courses that teach vocabulary and grammar with some fun interactive games thrown in.The free download gets you eleven free lessons,but you can unlock the full app for $14.99,getting you all 46 lessons.Random House Digital has similar apps available for learning French,Italian,German,Chinese,and Japanese.
Learn a Language with Michel Thomas
This one hails from the U.K.,where Thomas' method for learning new languages has garnered some heavy-hitter agreements from the likes of Woody Allen,Emma Thompson,and Stephen Fry.Thomas teaches you with a simple,but highly effective process: “You listen,he explains,you speak.” Lessons run an hour a piece,and you buy the hour lessons you want from inside the free app,for $4.99 a pop.Lessons are available for Spanish,French,Italian,and German.
Mango Languages
One of the most comprehensive apps is also the most cost-effective — it's free! No in-app purchases,no nothing.It offers classes for 35 foreign languages and 15 English as-a-second-language.The catch is that it requires a connection to your local library,and only if your library has a Mango Languages subscription.It teaches not only vocabulary and grammar,but also pronunciation (by native speakers) and helpful cultural tips,such as slang usages of common words.
Book 2
This one uses a novel 3-step method: You learn while listening,training,and sleeping.The app actually monitors your sleeping patterns and activates itself at the right time,playing its short sentences while you're asleep,to enhance your recall.Lessons are available in-app for 40 different languages,but they'll run you $3.99 each for anything more than a language's first chapter.

Stephanie and Andrew McGuire of Brentwood,Tennessee don't know how much time they have left with their little girl,Adalyn.Adalyn was just 3 years old when she was diagnosed with Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG),an aggressive brain tumor (肿瘤).
For the past year,Adalyn had bravely fought her brain tumor.She spent six weeks in the hospital getting 30 rounds of radiation nearly every day.Even as she lost some of her hair,she insisted on wearing her “Princess Elsa” braids,modeled by her favorite character in Frozen.Her love of Disney princesses never ended,even as she fought for her life.
Her treatment options were done,and the family didn't know what the future held,so they decided to celebrate Adalyn's 4th birthday a few months early.They called upon their community to help,and they couldn't believe the outpouring of support they received.
Tanya Sturm is the founder of Dreams & Wishes of Tennessee,a non-profit project that fulfils wishes for kids who relapsed from cancer and young adults just diagnosed.Their wishes are funded by donations and cost less than $2,500 each.
“Adalyn's wish is to have a huge princess party,” Tanya wrote on the Internet.“She wants to build a snowman with Elsa,Anna,and Olaf.She wants to dance with Belle and she wants a princess dress,possibly a yellow one because that's her favorite color right now.”
Before long,Tanya and her army of volunteers had put together a surprise fit for a princess! People quickly signed up to dress up as characters from Frozen and other Disney films,and the team arranged a kid-friendly menu selected by Adalyn.
“I put requests on social media and it was amazing how people wanted to help,” Tanya recalled.Adalyn was a little nervous at first,but as soon as she saw Olaf,she rushed to give him “a warm hug”.The party was held at a friend of the family's home.Someone donated a yellow princess dress for the birthday girl,and princess-themed balloons decorated the halls.Over 40 people attended the party,and guests feasted on meatballs,hot dogs,cheese and so on.

We often hear about how air pollution is changing earth temperatures.New evidence from a mountaintop in China now suggests that pollution can also change the amount of rain and snow falling in some places.
Usually,more rain falls in mountainous places than in flat areas upwind from the mountains.In recent years,however,many mountainous areas in the USA have been getting 25 percent less precipitation than normal.Mountains that are downwind of cities have experienced the biggest drops.
Some British scientists have theorized that pollution moves from the cities into the mountains,affecting rainfall.To get answers,scientists from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem turned to a mountain in China called Mount Hua.The mountain is 2,060 metres tall and lies about 120 kilometers east of the Chinese city of Xi'an.Since 1954,meteorologists (气象学家) have been collecting details about rainfall,humidity,and visibility in the area.Scientists compared rainfall on Mount Hua with rainfall in the nearest city,Huayin,on days with varying levels of visibility using these data.When the air was clear and people could see 20 km away,the scientists found that 65 percent more rain fell on the mountain than in the city.But when smoggy,allowing only 8 km of visibility through the haze,the mountain received just 20 percent more rain than the city did.The new data support the theory.
Some scientists believe that there are other explanations for the numbers.For example,some believe that naturally occurring particles in the air rather than particles produced by pollution are affecting visibility.This is the first study to observe a connection between rainfall and changes in visibility due to air pollution.However,more studies are needed to confirm the link.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了科学家们通过大量的实验发现能见度和降雨量有关系,由此推断降雨量与空气污染有关。
8.The scientists carrying out the study on Mount Hua are most probably from______________.
A.China B.the USA
C.Israel D.Britain
C [推理判断题。根据第三段中“To get answers,scientists from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem turned to a mountain in China called Mount Hua.”可知,这些科学家最有可能来自以色列。故选C。]
√
9.In the third paragraph “these data” don't include the information about______________.
A.the population there
B.the amount of rainfall
C.the humidity
D.the visibility
A [细节理解题。根据第三段中“Since 1954,meteorologists have been collecting details about rainfall,humidity,and visibility in the area.”可知,“这些数据”包括该地区的降雨、湿度和能见度,不包括A项“那里的人口”,故选A。]
√
10.From the last paragraph,we can learn that______________.
A.scientists haven't paid enough attention to climate change
B.not all scientists believe that there is a connection between visibility and rainfall
C.the low visibility must be caused by the heavy air pollution
D.air pollution may not be the only reason for the change of the visibility
√
D [推理判断题。根据最后一段可知,一部分科学家认为是污染产生的颗粒导致了能见度降低,而另一部分科学家认为有其他原因,比如大气中自然存在的颗粒也会导致能见度降低,由此可推出“空气污染可能不是能见度变化的唯一原因”,故选D。]
11.What does the passage mainly talk about
A.The factors affecting the amount of rainfall.
B.The effect of air pollution on earth temperatures.
C.A weather study carried out on a mountain in China.
D.Air pollution reducing precipitation.
√
D [主旨大意题。根据全文内容,再结合第一段中“New evidence from a mountaintop in China now suggests that pollution can also change the amount of rain and snow falling in some places.”可知,第一段提出降水量和污染有关,接着讲述科学家用数据来证明能见度越低(即污染越严重),降水量越小,D项“空气污染减少降水”能够总结本文大意,故选D。]
D
Young children are significantly more likely than adults to have their opinions influenced by robots according to a new study.The study,conducted at the University of Plymouth,compared how adults and children respond to an identical task when in the presence of both their peers and robots.
It showed that while adults regularly have their opinions influenced by peers,something also demonstrated in previous studies,they are largely able to resist being persuaded by robots.However,children aged between seven and nine were more likely to give the same responses as the robots,even if they were obviously incorrect.
The study asks people to look at a screen showing four lines and say which two match in length.When alone,people almost never make a mistake but when doing the experiment with others,they tend to follow what others are saying.
When children were alone in the room in this research,they scored 87%on the test,but when the robots join in their score drops to 75%.And of the wrong answers,74% matched those of the robot.
Professor Belpaeme said,“People often follow the opinions of others and we've known for a long time that it is hard to resist taking over views and opinions of people around us.But as robots will soon be found in the home and the workplace,we were wondering if people would follow robots.What our results show is that adults do not follow what the robots are saying.But when we did the experiment with children,they did.It shows children can perhaps have more of an affinity (亲和力)with robots than adults,which does pose the question: What if robots were to suggest,for example,what products to buy or what to think?”
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项研究发现,与成年人相比,年幼的孩子更容易受到机器人的影响。
12.What did the adults do when staying with robots
A.They generally refused the robots' effects.
B.They totally accepted the robots' suggestions.
C.They tried to persuade robots to resist them.
D.They usually compared robots with their children.
A [细节理解题。根据第二段“It showed that while adults regularly have their opinions influenced by peers,something also demonstrated in previous studies,they are largely able to resist being persuaded by robots.”可知,成年人会普遍拒绝接受机器人的影响。故选A。]
√
13.Why did some children make more mistakes in the experiment
A.Because children were not as clever as the adults.
B.Because robots reflected better than human beings.
C.Because robots in the presence made mistakes.
D.Because children wanted to affect the robots on purpose.
C [细节理解题。根据第二段以及第四段可知,儿童更容易给出和机器人一样的答案,哪怕答案是错误的,而在实验中,74%的错误是为了和机器人保持一致,即儿童犯了更多错误,是因为实验中的机器人给出了错误的答案。故选C。]
√
14.What is Professor Belpaeme's attitude towards the result of the experiment
A.He is optimistic about the result.
B.He is worried about the future.
C.He doesn't care about the result.
D.He doubts the result of the research.
√
B [态度观点题。根据第五段中“But as robots will soon be found in the home and the workplace,we were wondering if people would follow robots.”以及“It shows children can perhaps have more of an affinity with robots than adults,which does pose the question: What if robots were to suggest,for example,what products to buy or what to think?”可知,Professor Belpaeme对未来感到担心。故选B。]
15.What should be followed after the last paragraph
A.What is the meaning of the research
B.What should adults do to avoid the problem
C.Why are children more likely to be influenced
D.What will be done to solve the problem
D [推理判断题。根据第一段,最后一段以及文章内容可知,文章在首段介绍研究表明儿童更可能受到机器人的影响,分析之后,最后一段提出了一个具体的问题,所以接下来的段落应给出具体的解决方法,即需要采取何种措施来解决这一问题。故选D。]

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
How to Welcome Change in Your Life
Do you embrace the road you are now on or resist and avoid change at all costs when a recent event has shaken you greatly Here are things you can do in the midst of uncertainty to choose differently to change the track of your life.
Don't react.
What do we do when we don't know what to do First,stop,take a deep breath and don't do anything. 16 It is having faith and trusting what you do know in the unknown.
Reflect on the past.
Another activity is to recall times in your life when you were faced with the unknown.Then,think about how you handled the situation. 17 Use your past experiences to bring you strength,and to remind you what you are capable of.
Make conscious decisions.
18 However,more possibilities open up when we are at peace.Go over your list of what ifs and make a more balanced list of the best and worst situations if possible.Then talk to loved ones about what you would do in each situation and the choices you do have.
We often see fears as our greatest enemy,yet they provide us with an enormous opportunity for self-growth.What if we were to see them as friends who want to help us become a better person Let your fears help you instead of hurting you.Then,write down what comes to you.
A.Don't panic.
B.Befriend your fears.
C.You may be surprised by the answers.
D.When we are fearful,our options seem limited.
E.Then try to feel at ease with the state of “not knowing”.
F.Learning from past failures helps you make better decisions.

19.B [此空是一个小标题。根据下文可知,本段建议我们不要把恐惧看成敌人,要与其做朋友。B项“与恐惧交朋友”,fears是关键词。故选B。]
20.C [根据上文可知,上文提出了两个问题,且让我们写下自己想到的。由此推知,空处内容与上两个问题和写下的内容相关。C项“你可能会对答案感到惊讶”符合语境,answers是关键词。故选C。]

【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了中国的剪纸艺术。
36.was invented [考查时态,语态和主谓一致。句意:中国的剪纸艺术可以追溯到公元2世纪,因为纸是由中国东汉的蔡伦发明的。since从句的谓语动词是invent,根据句中in the Eastern Han Dynasty可知,从句应用一般过去时,主语paper和谓语动词之间是被动关系,应用一般过去时的被动语态,主语是paper,be动词应用was。故填was invented。]
37.types [考查名词的数。句意:随着纸张价格越来越合理,剪纸成为中国民间艺术最重要的类型之一。one of后接可数名词复数形式。故填types。]
38.with [考查介词。句意:后来,随着不同地区采用各自的文化风格,这种艺术形式被传播到了世界其他地方。根据句意,空处表示“随着”,应用介词with表示伴随。故填with。]
39.Usually [考查词性转换。句意:通常,艺术品是用红纸做成的,因为在中国文化中,红色与幸福有关,但也使用其他颜色。空处修饰后面的句子,应用副词形式作状语,usually表示“通常”。置于句首,首字母大写。故填Usually。]
40.happiness [考查词性转换。句意:通常,艺术品是用红纸做成的,因为在中国文化中,红色与幸福有关,但也使用其他颜色。介词后名词作宾语。happy的名词形式是happiness。故填happiness。]
41.its [考查代词。句意:剪纸起源于中国,历史悠久,深受中国老百姓的喜爱。形容词性物主代词修饰名词history,应用its。故填its。]
42.that/which [考查定语从句。句意:剪纸起源于中国,历史悠久,深受中国老百姓的喜爱。分析句子结构可知,空处引导限制性定语从句,修饰先行词paper-cutting,先行词指物,关系词在从句中作主语,应用关系代词that/which引导从句。故填that/which。]
43.to make [考查非谓语动词。句意:人们在婚礼或节日时在墙壁、窗户和门上贴剪纸,营造出欢快的气氛。句中已有谓语put,空处作非谓语动词,结合语意可知,此处表示目的,用动词不定式形式作目的状语。故填to make。]
44.a [考查冠词。句意:儿童、莲花和蝙蝠的设计暗示着一个有大量子女和孙辈的家庭。a large number of,为固定短语,表示“大量的”。故填a。]
45.accepted [考查非谓语动词。句意:鸟类、牲畜、水果、鱼和昆虫也是中国农民所熟悉的对象。句中已有are,空处作非谓语动词,accept与逻辑主语objects之间是被动关系,用过去分词形式作后置定语。故填accepted。]

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Maria and Peter lived in a coastal city.The greatest pleasure in summer for them was to swim at their local beach after school.But one day they started to lose their enthusiasm for swimming in the waters.More often than not,they would find plastic bags thrown on the beach.Worse still,as they swam in the water,some plastic bags would float around them and even stick to their legs when they walked to the shore.
They were upset and decided something needed to be done to stop the beautiful sea becoming consumed by waste.One weekend,Maria and Peter brought a big bag to the beach and determined to clean it up.Sweat streamed down their forehead while they bent down and picked up the plastic bags.To their disappointment,after a day's hard work,there were still many plastic bags lying on the beach or floating in the water.Going home with aching legs and arms,Maria and Peter were almost defeated by a strong sense of failure.
That night over dinner with their parents,the pair ate silently.Noticing their low spirits,Mother asked gently,“You two looked so down.What happened?” Exchanging glances with Peter,Maria replied in a low voice,“It's those annoying plastic bags.We tried to clean up but it was just impossible.” Understanding the pair's disappointment,their father patted them on the back and comforted,“Well,it's really hard for just two of you to fix such a big problem.” “Just two of us.” complained Maria and Peter,looking at each other.Suddenly,an idea flashed through their minds,their eyes shining with excitement.“Yes,that's the point! We should make more people aware of the problem and encourage them to take action!” the pair said in chorus.

Quickly finishing their dinner,the pair went upstairs and started planning. Maria and Peter decided to take advantage of the Internet.“Maybe we can write an article to arouse people's awareness.” Maria proposed.“Good idea! We can also make a video!” Peter added.The next few hours witnessed their heated discussion and growing confidence in a clean and beautiful coast.The next day,they went to the beach and filmed a short video showing plastic bags lying on the beach and floating in the sea.Peter,who was good at writing,wrote an article talking about the present situation of the beach and asking people to take part in the clean-up.
Excited and nervous,they posted the video and article on social media.To their amazement,their post went viral online immediately.Countless comments flooded in saying how heartbroken they were when looking at the polluted beach and ocean.What amazed Maria and Peter more was that numerous people in their community,encouraged by their efforts,offered to join in their clean-up.more and more people came to the beach to collect plastic bags and they also appealed to others to avoid throwing or using plastic bags.A year later,with their joint and continuous effort,the coast regained its beauty and Maria and Peter regained their long-awaited pleasure.

The Virtue I Value Most
[高分范文背诵]
The Virtue I Value Most
There are many virtues we should value to live a meaningful life,such as kindness,wisdom,courage,justice and so on.However,what I value most is honesty.
As the saying goes,“Honesty is the best policy.” This is absolutely true.As one of the core socialist values,honesty is the fundamental factor on which all human relationships are based.Without honesty,our society will be filled with lies and fake products.As a result,nobody can be trusted and nothing can be achieved.
My fellow students,let's always be honest.An honest person will win friends,an honest company will win customers,and an honest country will win the respect from the whole world.
片段1
Disappointment and embarrassment written in her burning face,she felt tears began to well up in her eyes.In bitter disappointment and desperation,she ran swiftly to her room and locked herself in.Embarrassment and the feeling of failure flooding over her,she threw herself into the bed,weeping wildly.
她火辣辣的脸上写满了失望和尴尬,她感到眼里开始涌出泪水。带着极度的失望和绝望,她迅速跑回自己的房间,把自己锁在里面。尴尬和失败的感觉淹没了她,她扑倒在床上,大哭起来。
片段2
His teeth were chattering,and with unstoppable rage in his eyes,he was like an angry lion.He went purple with anger,but he didn't scream in anger as usual.He just glared at me silently.His staring eyes really frightened me.I swallowed nervously,licked my lips and looked away.
他的牙齿咯咯作响,眼中充满无法抑制的愤怒,他就像一头愤怒的狮子。他气得脸色发紫,但没有像往常一样愤怒地大叫。他只是默默地瞪着我。他瞪着的眼睛真的吓到我了。我紧张地咽了口唾沫,舔了舔嘴唇,然后看向别处。
