Cholera
Cholera is a water?borne disease that is spread through polluted water and food.It is an illness caused by the bacterium called Vibrio cholera.It produces an enterotoxin(肠毒素)that causes painless，watery diarrhea(腹泻) that can quickly lead to severe dehydration(脱水)and death if treatment is not given.Most people infected with cholera do not become ill，although the bacterium is present in their wastes for 7—14 days.When cholera does happen，more than 90% of cases are not severe and are difficult to tell from other types of diarrhea.Less than 10% of ill people develop cholera with signs of moderate or severe dehydration.
A person may get cholera by drinking water or eating food polluted with the cholera bacterium.The disease can spread rapidly in areas without proper treatment of drinking water.The cholera bacterium may also live in the environment in dirty rivers and coastal waters.Shellfish eaten raw can be a source of cholera.Therefore，the disease is not likely to spread directly from one person to another.
Cholera can be simply and successfully treated by immediate replacement of the fluid and salt lost through diarrhea.Patients can be treated by being given a mixture of sugar and salt to be mixed with water and drunk in large amounts.People who develop severe diarrhea in countries where cholera breaks out should seek medical attention at once.
In a word，to avoid cholera，we should develop a good habit.We should eat well?cooked food instead of raw food.

高考英语阅读理解篇章结构分析
(2015·全国Ⅱ卷A篇)
【语篇解读】 本篇阅读着重讲述了一台彩色电视给作者带来的一系列烦恼。
My colour television has given me nothing but a headache.I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead of a lot of clothes that wouldn't fit.I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model.①I realized this a day later，when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid.The set worked so beautifully when I first got it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night.②Fortunately，I didn't get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed.
我的彩色电视什么也没给我，只会让我头疼。在一年多前我买了它，这是因为我让我的亲戚给我的生日礼物是钱而不是不适合我的衣服。一个销售职员骗我买了这款已经停产的电视。而在一天之后当我从报纸上看到这款电视以75美元——低于我所付的价格销售时，我认识到自己被骗了。刚开始的时候这台电视工作起来那么好以至于我一直看到所有的节目结束。幸运的是，没有一个频道能通宵播放电影，否则的话我整晚就不会睡觉了。
Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static(静电) noise.For some reason，when certain shows switched into a commercial，a loud noise would sound for a few seconds.Gradually，this noise began to appear during a show，and to get rid of it，I had to change to another channel and then change it back.Sometimes this technique would not work，and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound.③I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉)shaking my set.
接着那台电视出现了静电噪音的问题。某种未知的原因，当某些节目插入商业广告的时候，一个很大的噪音会出现几秒钟。慢慢地，这种噪音开始在节目播放中出现，为了除掉这种噪音，我不得不换到另外一个频道然后再换回来。有时候这种小计谋不好用，我就不得不抱起电视晃动它以期消除噪音。事实上，我通过晃动电视强健了我的肌肉。
When neither of these methods removed the static noise，I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away.At last I ended up hitting the set with my fist，and it stopped working altogether.④My trip to the repair shop cost me $62，and the set is working well now，but I keep expecting more trouble.
当这两种方法都无法消除静电噪音的时候，我只能无助地坐在那里等着噪音消除。最后的结局是我用拳头击打了电视，它就完全不工作了。修理它花了我62美元，这台电视现在又能好好工作了，不过我时刻都在期待着更多的麻烦出现。
【解题提示】 本文是故事类短文阅读。阅读问题都是细节理解和推理类，其中第22题、24题较难，是把细节理解和推理判断结合在一起，选项的设计也有一定的迷惑性，需要慎重思考。
(针对命题①)
21．Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set?【来源：21cnj*y.co*m】
A．He got an older model than he had expected.
B．He couldn't return it when it was broken.
C．He could have bought it at a lower price.
D．He failed to find any movie shows on it.
解析：细节理解题。根据文章第一段的句子“I realized this a day later，when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set at seventy-five dollars less than I had paid.”可知作者可以以一个更低的价钱买到这台电视机，所以他觉得被骗了。
答案：C
(针对命题②)
22．Which of the following can best replace the phrase “signed off”in Paragraph 1?
A．ended all their programmes
B．provided fewer channels
C．changed to commercials
D．showed all-night movies
解析：词义猜测题。根据文章第一段的句子“Fortunately，I didn't get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten to bed.”(幸运的是没有整晚可以看电影的频道，否则我就不会睡觉。)可以推断出signed off是结束所有的节目。故答案为A。
答案：A
(针对命题④)
23．How did the author finally get his TV set working again?
A．By shaking and hitting it.
B．By turning it on and off.
C．By switching channels.
D．By having it repaired.
解析：细节理解题。根据文章第三段句子“My trip to the repair shop cost me $62，and the set is working well now...”(修理店花了我62美元，这台电视又能好好工作了)。
答案：D
(针对命题③)
24．How does the author sound when telling the story?
A．Curious. B．Anxious.
C．Cautious. D．Humorous.
解析：细节题解题。根据文章第二段最后一句话“I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉)shaking my set.”和在第三段“but I keep expecting more trouble.”可以看出作者语言很幽默，故答案为D。
答案：D

Tayka Hotel de Sal
Where：Tahua，Bolivia
How much：About $95 a night
Why it's cool：You've stayed at hotels made of bricks or wood，but salt？That's something few can claim.Tayka Hotel de Sal is made totally of salt—including the beds[though you'll sleep on regular mattresses(床垫)and blankets]．The hotel sits on the Salar de Uyuni，a prehistoric dried-up lake which is the world's biggest salt flat.Builders use the salt from the 4，633-square-mile flat to make the bricks，and glue them together with a paste of wet salt that hardens when it dries.When rain starts to dissolve the hotel，the owners just mix up more salt paste to strengthen the bricks.
Green Magic Nature Resort
Where：Vythiri，India
How much：About $240 a night
Why it's cool：Riding a pulleyoperated(滑轮操控的) lift 86 feet to your treetop room is just the start of your adventure.As you look out of your open window—there is no glass—you watch monkeys and birds in the rain forest canopy.Later you might test your fear of heights by crossing the handmade rope bridge to the main part of the hotel，or just sit on your bamboo bed and read.You don't even have to come down for breakfast—the hotel will send it up on the pulley?drawn “elevator”．
Dog Bark Park Inn B&B
Where：Cottonwood，Idaho
How much：$92 a night
Why it's cool：This doghouse isn't just for the family pet.Sweet_Willy is a 30-foot-tall dog with guest rooms in his belly.Climb the wooden stairs beside his hind leg to enter the door in his side.You can relax in the main bedroom，go up a few steps of the loft in Willy's head，or hang out inside his nose.Although you have a full private bathroom in your quarters，there is also a toilet in the 12?foot?tall fire hydrant outside.
Gamirasu Cave Hotel
Where：Ayvali，Turkey
How much：Between $130 and $475 a night
Why it's cool：This is caveman cool！Experience what it was like 5，000 years ago，when people lived in these mountain caves formed by volcanic ash.But your stay will be much more modern.Bathrooms and electricity provide what you expect from a modern hotel，and the white volcanic ash，called tufa，keeps the rooms cool，about 65°F in summer.(Don't worry—there is heat in winter.)

B
All those Christmas toys and books may spread more than good cheer.A new study has concluded that two common bacteria that cause colds，ear infections，and sore throats can live for long periods on the surfaces of toys，books，and other child-related items，even after being cleaned.
The findings，published in the journal Infection and Immunity and reported by Medical Xpress，show some bacteria continue to exist on surfaces for far longer than has been believed.
The researchers said they had drawn a conclusion that additional precautions(预防)may be necessary to prevent infections，especially in settings such as schools，daycare centres，and hospitals.“These findings should make us more cautious about bacteria in the environment since they change our ideas about how these particular bacteria are spread，”said Anders Hakansson，assistant professor of microbiology and immunology in the UB School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences.“This is the first paper to directly study that these bacteria can survive well on various surfaces，including hands，and potentially spread between individuals.”
S．pneumoniae is widespread in daycare centres and a common cause of hospital infections；Hakansson explained to us that it commonly causes sore throats and skin infections in children and adults.
To reach their conclusions，the UB researchers tested the surfaces of toys in a daycare centre.They found four out of five toys tested positive for S．pneumoniae and several surfaces，such as beds，tested positive for S．pyogenes，even after being cleaned.The testing was done just before the centre opening in the morning so it had been many hours since the last human contact.
“Bacterial colonization(细菌定植)doesn't，by itself，cause infection but it's a necessary first step if an infection is going to become established in a human host，”he explains.“Children，the elderly and others with compromised immune systems(缺乏抵抗力的免疫系统)are easily infected.”
【语篇解读】 一项新的研究得出结论：一些常见的如引起感冒、耳部感染和喉咙痛的细菌，可以长时间存在于书籍、玩具或其他与儿童相关物品的表面，即使被清洗后也是如此。2-1-c-n-j-y
4．According to Anders Hakansson，we can infer that ________．
A．the findings make us sense the danger of the bacteria on gifts
B．the findings change people's attitude to bacteria infection
C．the existence of bacteria on gifts wasn't formally concerned
D．the bacteria will spread through gifts faster than through individuals
解析：推理判断题。根据第三段“This is the first paper to directly study that these bacteria can survive well on various surfaces...”可知，这是第一次关于细菌会在玩具或书本等不同表面停留很久的报告。由此可推知，此前这个问题并没有被如此正式地关注过。
答案：C
5．The underlined word in the fourth paragraph probably refers to ________．
A．an illness B．a bacterium
C．a toy D．an infection
解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词上文可知本文指出一些常见的细菌会长时间存在于书籍等儿童物品的表面，另外根据画线词下文“...it commonly causes sore throats and skin infections in children and adults.”可知，它通常会引起咽喉痛和皮肤感染。由此可猜测画线词是一种细菌的名称。
答案：B
6．From the last two paragraphs，we can know that ________．
A．adults won't be easily infected even if their immune systems are weak
B．the testing was done just after the daycare centre opening
C．infection of bacteria can't happen without bacterial
colonization
D．researchers found half of the toys were infected by S．pneumoniae21教育名师原创作品
解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段“...it's a necessary first step if an infection is going to become established in a human host...”可知，细菌定植是细菌在人体宿主内产生感染的必要的第一步，也就是说如果没有细菌定植就不会有细菌的感染。
答案：C
7．What's the best title of the passage?
A．Away off the toys，books or other gifts
B．Bacteria and immune systems
C．The importance of keeping toys clean
D．Spread of infectious bacteria via toys and books
解析：标题判断题。根据首段以及全文内容可知，本文主要介绍了玩具以及书成为传播传染性细菌的媒介这一研究成果。
答案：D
C
More than half a century ago，there were 4，000 drive-in movie theatres in the United States，and watching a movie from your car was a popular way to spend an evening.But with the number of drive-ins reduced to just a few hundred，outdoor movies have been popping up across the nation.Going to an open-air theatre has become a modern summer pastime for an increasing number of movie fans.
In recent years，outdoor movie screenings have come up in parks，vacant lots and shopping malls around the nation.On average，about 1，000 people attend each movie night.It attracts a lot of young professionals，young workers and residents nearby.For some，the outdoor movies bring back the memories of the drive-in theatres of their youths.But for the majorities，they think it is comparable to the atmosphere of drive-ins，as they can bring friends，food，good wine，and watch the movie together.
The returning of Americans' love affair with outdoor movies makes Stephen Bastas ever busier.His seven-member crew sets up screens in various locations mostly in the Washington area every day throughout the summer.They are doing pretty well and they hope to continue the trend.And it looks like they are going to.That's because many fans say there is nothing like watching a movie on a breezy summer evening under the stars.

China started 32 high-speed train routes on December 10，2014.New high-speed train lines are part of the government's plan to double the size of the national rail network.
The network extension(延长)includes a link between the biggest city Shanghai and the manufacturing city of Guangzhou right next to Hong Kong.The 1，106-mile route cuts the journey time down to 6 hours and 51 minutes，instead of the 16 hours it previously took.
China has the world's largest high-speed rail network，which keeps the growing population and economy connected.The country's two largest train makers are in the process of combining to create a more competitive company，both internationally and nationally，reports in October said.The world's fastest passenger train is also in China—the Shanghai Maglev Train(磁悬浮列车)can reach speeds of over 430 kilometres(260 miles)per hour.21·世纪*教育网
Authorities in China have big dreams for the transport network，hoping links with Asian neighbours，Russia and even the United States and the United Kingdom.
China's ambition could be limited by a series of cancelled contracts.In October，Mexico unexpectedly cancelled a $3.75 billion high-speed train deal with China，only two days after awarding the contract.The 210-kilometre(130-mile)railway would link Mexico City with the central manufacturing city of Queretaro.Another was in Thailand，where Chinese state companies were criticized to develop a high speed rail network.
Destructive high-speed passenger train crashes in China in 2011 that killed 40，and in 2008 that left 90 dead have drawn critics to the project.But China will not stop its step.New technologies are being used to guarantee the safety of the passengers.After the 32 high-?speed train routes start，it will be convenient and fast for people at home and abroad to travel around the country.

18____ For example，if you are in your 30s or 40s，he or she will say，“____19____” or “Someone close to you is having health or marital(婚姻的)problems.”How many people in their 30s and 40s are not going through changes in their life，personally，or professionally，or in their family?

Almost everyone in the United Kingdom speaks English.Some people in Wales speak only Welsh.Generally，however，everyone in the United Kingdom can talk with everyone else.This is one way in which the nation is united.
Another way in which the people are united is by their religion.Ninety-five percent of the British people are Protestant.The Anglican Church is the largest in England.The Presbyterian Church is the largest in Scotland.Although religion is a unifying idea for most of the nation，it divides the people in Northern Ireland.
Most British citizens read and write English.This is mainly because free elementary and secondary education is given to each child in the United Kingdom.Children go to school between the ages of five and sixteen.University education，however，is limited to those who can pass strict tests.

2016年高考英语阅读理解篇章结构分析
(全国Ⅰ卷C篇)
【语篇解读】 主要介绍了作者在一次运送造血干细胞途中的一段经历，表现了人与人之间的友爱。
I am Peter Hodes，a volunteer stem cell courier．①Since March 2012，I've done 89 trips—of those，51 have been abroad.I have 42 hours to carry stem cells(干细胞)in my little box because I've got two ice packs and that's how long they last.In all，from the time the stem cells are harvested from a donor(捐献者)to the time they can be implanted in the patient，we've got 72 hours at most.So I am always conscious of time.
我是彼得·霍兹，一个干细胞快递的志愿者。自2012年3月以来，我已经运送干细胞89次，其中51次是在国外。我必须在42小时内把装在小盒子里的干细胞运到，因为那是我带着的两个冰袋所能坚持的时间。总之，从干细胞从捐献者身上摘取下来到它们可以植入病人体内，我们最多有72小时，所以我总是有时间意识。
I had one trip last year where I was caught by a hurricane in America.I picked up the stem cells in Providence，Rhode Island，and was meant to fly to Washington then back to London.But when I arrived at the check-in desk at Providence，the lady on the desk said：“Well，I'm really sorry，I've got some bad news for you—there are no flights from Washington.”So I took my box and put it on the desk and I said：“In this box are some stem cells that are urgently needed for a patient—please，please，you've got to get me back to the United Kingdom.”She just dropped everything.②She arranged for a flight on a small plane to be held for me，re-routed(改道)me through Newark and got me back to the UK even earlier than originally scheduled.
去年有一次我在美国赶上一场飓风。我在罗得岛州的普罗维登斯拿到了干细胞，打算飞往华盛顿，然后返回伦敦。但是当我到达机场时，前台的那位女士说：“我真的很抱歉，我有一些坏消息要告诉你，没有一架飞机从华盛顿起飞。”我拿起我的箱子，把它放在桌子上，说：“在这个盒子里是一些干细胞，一个病人迫切需要的，请帮忙，你必须安排我飞回到英国。”她马上放下手中的事情，把我安排在一架小飞机上，为我改道通过纽瓦克，让我回到英国。我甚至比原计划提前到达。
For this courier job，you're consciously aware that in that box you've got something that is potentially going to save somebody's life.
对于一个干细胞运送者来说，你会明显地意识到你手里这个盒子里的东西，可能会挽救某人的生命。
【解题提示】 本文是故事类阅读短文。第30、31题都是很简单的细节理解试题。第29题词义猜测题稍难些。注意此类试题的答题技巧。1.根据定义或上下文解释进行猜测。2.根据同位关系进行猜测。3.根据构词法(前缀、后缀、复合、派生等)进行猜测。4.根据转折或对比关系进行猜测。在本文中要根据上下文对作者工作的描写来推测出正确的词义。2·1·c·n·j·y
(针对命题①)
29．Which of the following can replace the underlined word“courier” in Paragraph 1?
A．provider B．delivery man
C．collector D．medical doctor
解析：词义猜测题。考查词义猜测→寻读法→根据第一段第三句话“I have 42 hours to carry stem cells(干细胞)in my little box...”可知作者是运送干细胞的人，也就是delivery man。故选B。
答案：B
(针对命题①)
30．Why does Peter have to complete his trip within 42 hours?
A．He cannot stay away from his job too long.
B．The donor can only wait for that long.
C．The operation needs that much time.
D．The ice won't last any longer.
解析：细节理解题。考查细节理解→寻读法→根据第一段第三句“...because I've got two ice packs and that's how long they last.”可知这两块冰只能持续42小时，所以彼得不得不在42小时内完成旅程，故选择D。
答案：D
(针对命题②)
31．Which flight did the woman put Peter on first?
A．To London. B．To Newark.
C．To Providence. D．To Washington.
解析：细节理解题。考查细节理解→寻读法→根据第二段最后一句“She arranged for a flight on a small plane to be held for me，re-routed me through Newark and got me back to the UK...”可知那位前台女士安排一架小飞机特意为彼得在纽瓦克改道。所以那位女士安排彼得首先去的是纽瓦克的航班。故答案为B。
答案：B

Ⅰ.阅读理解
阅读下面的短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中选出最佳选项。
All hotels are restored periodically.However，few do it as frequently as Sweden's Icehotel.Located in a remote village of Sweden，the hotel is constructed entirely from ice and therefore，has to be rebuilt annually.
The 26-year-old tradition began accidentally in 1989 when locals organized an art exhibition to attract winter visitors.Among the tourists was an adventurous group that announced their intention of spending the night in the building where the exhibition was being held.That's when the idea of building the icy accommodations occurred to the locals.
Each year，the preparations begin in March and the construction starts in November.Within eight to twelve weeks，Icehotel is ready to welcome its first visitors until mid-April.After that，the beautiful structure will slowly melt into one giant pool.
Among this year's unique suite(套房)offerings is the “Elephant in the Room”．It features a 3-metre tall sculpted elephant overlooking an ice-framed bed.For those seeking something more cutting-edge，there are ones themed after a Swedish horror film and local fairy tales.To get a good night's rest，guests have to snuggle inside their sleeping bags with gloves and hats on.Though that seems a little uncomfortable，visitors say it is an experience like none other.
The hotel also features a beautifully crafted ice church where over 100 couples will get married this year and an ice bar that will serve drinks in glasses carved from ice.Though dining options are limited to the hotel's only restaurant，guests will have little to complain about with Michelin-trained chef Alexander Meier in charge.To keep customers entertained，the hotel offers a lot of fun activities like snowshoeing，dog sledding，and even overnight wilderness camping.

As many women know only too well，finding a dress that fits their bodies isn't an easy task.But a new dress，which is created using a 3D printer，may be the answer to every woman's style problems.
A design studio has used 3D printing technology to create a creative dress customized(定做)to a woman's body.The dress，which costs a surprising ￡1，900($3，000)to print，features 2，279 printed patterns interconnected by 3，316 hinges.
Creators Nervous System call it a“4D dress”as the printed dress can go from a flat object to the shape that you want.Jessica Rosenkrantz，co-founder and creative director，said that the dress took nearly 48 hours to print.
The company，based in Massachusetts，the USA，has also created a smartphone and tablet app(平板电脑程序)，which helps users to operate their dresses.Using the app，the pattern，style and flexibility (柔韧性)of the dress can all be changed.
Speaking about her work，Jessica Rosenkrantz said：“I'm very interested in a future where dresses are more personal and customised.It is printed using a process called Selective Laser Sintering that uses a laser(激光)to mix together nylon powder，leaving unmelted powder in between all of the gap spaces.More dresses are already on the way.”
Although the 4D dress is quite exorbitant，many women have ordered it.Women like it very much because it fits them well.What's more，it is easy to be compressed(压缩)and to be stored.It can also change its pattern，style and flexibility whenever you want it to do so.The most important thing about the 4D dress is that it has no harmful materials，therefore it does no harm to your body.

Self-confidence can help people overcome the challenges they are experiencing，such as fear and anxiety as well as other concerns.When children build their self-confidence，they believe in themselves more，they become more assertive(坚定自信的)and more comfortable with themselves.Here are three play therapy(治疗)techniques I find suitable for helping children to improve their self-confidence.
Pretend Play
Allow a child to create a puppet(木偶)show to express the difficulty he is having.For instance，if the child is afraid of the dark，have him come up with a puppet show about a puppet who is afraid of the dark.Have him create a title for the puppet show and then make the show.If the child doesn't seem to be coming up with a way to help the puppet overcome his fear，present inquiring(询问的)questions to see if he can find a way to help the puppet not be afraid anymore.
Encourage Independence
Many children with low self-confidence display behaviours that indicate they do not believe they can do things on their own.When a situation arises in which the child says he can't do it，encourage the child to do the activity.Praise any effort he makes.For instance，if a child is developmentally able to cut something out with scissors，and an activity requires that task and the child asks you to do it for him，encourage him to try to do it.
Self-Awareness
Helping children become more self aware can help build self-confidence.Children with low self-confidence may not be very decisive.They may say“I don't know”a lot or hesitate when you ask them questions about themselves.In addition，help children accept their own answers.To do this，be supportive of the answers they provide by making sure not to make them feel like they need to change their answers in any way.
【语篇解读】 文章介绍了提高孩子自信的3种游戏治疗技术。
8．What should parents do if the child fails to help the puppet?
A．Create another puppet show.
B．Raise inquiring questions.
C．Replay the puppet show.
D．Create a title for the puppet show.
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段“If the child doesn't seem to be coming up with a way to help the puppet overcome his fear，present inquiring questions to see if he can find a way to help the puppet not be afraid anymore.”可知，如果孩子看起来没有想出一个办法来帮助木偶战胜他的恐惧，提出探究性的问题看他能否想出帮助木偶不再害怕的方法。21·cn·jy·com
答案：B
9．How does the author develop his second therapy technique?
A．By raising a question. B．By doing research.
C．By giving an example. D．By making comparisons.
解析：推理判断题。Encourage Independence中谈到：许多不自信的孩子表现出的一些行为显示出他们不相信他们可以独立完成事情。当出现孩子说他不会做的情况时，鼓励孩子自己行动，赞扬他做出的任何努力。例如，如果孩子发育到有能力用剪子剪东西并且一项活动要求用剪子剪东西，孩子请求你帮他做，鼓励他自己尝试去做。由此可知作者是以举例的方式来说明如何鼓励孩子独立的。
答案：C
10．How can a parent help a child accept his own answers?
A．By supporting his answers.
B．By providing him with more answers.
C．By making him change his answers.
D．By making him give no answers.
解析：细节理解题。根据文章结尾“To do this，be supportive of the answers they provide by making sure not to make them feel like they need to change their answers in any way.”可知，为了帮助孩子们接受他们自己的答案，支持他们提供的答案，确保不要让他们觉得他们需要改他们的答案。【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】

Tears ran down from my eyes as I saw the essay my high school English teacher had just handed back.A big F was written on top.I was hopeless.I was stupid！My face burned with shame when my classmates called me stupid.21教育网
“I'm the only one who doesn't know my ABCs！”I sobbed to mum.2-1-c-n-j-y
“I'll help，”she promised.
Every day I sat with her，but to me，cat looked like cta and red was reb.Frustrated，I would return to my bedroom and draw，filling the paper with houses，restaurants and offices.
“When I grow up，I want my own store，”I told mum，pointing to my drawings.
“That's great！”she said，“but first you have to learn to read.”
Later，I was diagnosed with dyslexia(失读症)．So mum took me to a learning centre，where I was given reading exercises.But I still struggled.Finally，I graduated，but I was afraid of my reading skills.
“I'll never get a job！”I cried to mum later again.
“Don't focus on what you can't do，”she comforted.“Concentrate on what you can.”
But what can I do？I wondered.Suddenly，I thought of the drawings I'd made as a child and my dream of having my own store.I enjoyed sales so much that over the next few years，I tried my hand at other businesses.Today，I watch over seven branches.We have 187 employees and $15 million in sales.
While I'll never be what my teachers might have wanted，I am a success－on my own terms.The other day a student sent me a card，reading：You gave me so much confidence.I hope to be like you when I am big.Tears of joy filled my eyes.This was my A，I smiled.

答案：
Dear_Mr_Smith，
I came to your office for our school English newspaper this afternoon.But you were not in，so I had to leave you the note.
As for our school English newspaper，firstly I think we should advertise for several editors from students.Each editor will be in charge of a different edition，because only students know what students are interested in.Then I think the newspaper should have a section for students to post their own articles.Through the section，students can communicate with others and improve their English writing at the same time.
These are my suggestions and I believe we will have an excellent newspaper.
Yours，
Li_Hua
Unit 3 Life in the future
【导语】 未来对于我们每一个人来说都充满了神秘。如果我们能够预知未来那将是多么奇妙的事，这应该是我们每一个人都很向往的事情。我们能否做到呢？
It's impossible to know the future.We can guess，but no one has actual knowledge of what's going to happen down the road.
But if you're someone who trusts her/his feelings，you're more likely to accurately predict future events than people who don't trust their feelings as much.
That's the conclusion of a recent study done by researchers at Columbia Business School.2·1·c·n·j·y
Through a series of eight studies they found that subjects who had a high amount of trust in their feelings were generally better able to predict things like the outcomes of presidential elections，football games，the winner of American Idol，and even the weather.
How is this possible，you ask?
The best explanation is known as the“privileged window” hypothesis.The gist is that when we rely on feelings to make a prediction，we're really summarizing and calling on everything we know about the subject in question.It's similar to what journalist Malcolm Gladwell wrote about in his best-selling book Blink that the more we know about something the greater our ability to make snap judgments and predictions without thinking too much.
Unlike Gladwell's theory，though，the recent study is less about snap decisions and more about consciously deciding to rely on feelings to make predictions.Do that，and you're more likely to be able to sense what may happen in the future.
【词海拾贝】
1．accurately adv.正确无误地，准确地；精确地
2．predict vt.预言，预测
3．presidential adj.总统的，首长的

2016年高考英语阅读理解篇章结构分析
(全国Ⅱ卷D篇)
【语篇解读】 本文讲述了弗兰克的图片记录了一次不成功的航海，同时记录了与这次航海活动的相关人物和事情。
A new collection of photos brings an unsuccessful Antarctic voyage back to life.
一组新照片把一次不成功的南极航行重新带回到现实生活中。
Frank Hurley's pictures would be outstanding—undoubtedly first-rate photo-journalism—if they had been made last week.①In fact，they were shot from 1914 through 1916，most of them after a disastrous shipwreck(海难)，by a cameraman who had no reasonable expectation of survival.Many of the images were stored in an ice chest，under freezing water，in the damaged wooden ship.
弗兰克·赫尔利的照片会是为人瞩目的——如果它们是上周拍的，无疑是一流的图片新闻。事实上，它们是在1914到1916年期间拍摄的镜头，它们中的大多数是在损失惨重的海难之后，由一位可能遇难的摄影师拍摄。许多图像被保存在冰冷的水下已经损坏的木质船上的一个冰柜里。
The ship was the Endurance，a small，tight，Norwegian-built three-master that was intended to take Sir Ernest Shackleton and a small crew of seamen and scientists，27 men in all，to the southernmost shore of Antarctica's Weddell Sea.From that point Shackleton wanted to force a passage by dog sled(雪橇)across the continent.②The journey was intended to achieve more than what Captain Robert Falcon Scott had done.Captain Scott had reached the South Pole early in 1912 but had died with his four companions on the march back.
该船就是“坚忍号”，它是一只小小的、紧凑的、挪威建造的三桅船，意在装载欧内斯特·沙克尔顿爵士、一小队水手和科学家总计27人到南极洲威德尔海最南端的海岸。从那一点开始，欧内斯特·沙克尔顿爵士想用狗拉雪橇强行穿越整个大陆。这次旅程的目的是要实现比斯科特船长所取得的成就更大。斯科特船长在1912年初已经到达南极，但在回来的路上，他和他的四个同伴一起遇难了。
As writer Caroline Alexander makes clear in her forceful and well-researched story The Endurance，adventuring was even then a thoroughly commercial effort.Scott's last journey，completed as he lay in a tent dying of cold and hunger，caught the world's imagination，and a film made in his honour drew crowds.③Shackleton，a onetime British merchant-navy officer who had got to within 100 miles of the South Pole in 1908，started a business before his 1914 voyage to make money from movie and still photography.Frank Hurley，a confident and gifted Australian photographer who knew the Antarctic，was hired to make the images，most of which have never before been published.
作为作家的卡罗琳·亚历山大在她那个经过深入调查研究的很有说服力的故事《坚忍号》中明确表示，那次冒险是一次纯粹的商业努力。斯科特的最后一次旅程，躺在一个帐篷，死于寒冷和饥饿引起了全球的想象，为了纪念他而拍成的电影吸引了大批观众。萨克里顿，一个曾在1908年进入离南极点不足100英里之处的前英国商船海军军官，在1914年航海之前就开始靠拍电影和摄影赚钱的生意。弗兰克·赫尔利，一个自信的、具有天赋的澳大利亚摄影师，恰好很了解南极，被雇来制作图像，图像的大部分从来没有被公布过。
【解题提示】 考查记叙文阅读。本文三题均考查了细节题。在完成细节题时，要特别注意排除干扰项。
(针对命题①)
33．What do we know about the photos taken by Hurley?
A．They were made last week.
B．They showed undersea sceneries.
C．They were found by a cameraman.
D．They recorded a disastrous adventure.
解析：细节理解题。细节理解→寻读法→根据第二段第二句“In fact，they were shot from 1914 through 1916，most of them after a disastrous...”可知这组照片记录的是一次海难，故选D。
答案：D
(针对命题②)
34．Who reached the South Pole first according to the text?
A．Frank Hurley.
B．Ernest Shackleton.
C．Robert Falcon Scott.
D．Caroline Alexander.
解析：细节理解题。细节理解→寻读法→根据第三段“The journey was intended to achieve more than what Captain Robert Falcon Scott had done.Captain Scott had reached the South Pole early in 1912.”可知第一个到达南极点的应该是Robert Falcon Scott，故选C。
答案：C
(针对命题③)
35．What does Alexander think was the purpose of the 1914 voyage?
A．Artistic creation.
B．Scientific research.
C．Money making.
D．Treasure hunting.
解析：细节理解题。细节理解→寻读法→根据最后一段倒数第二句“Shackleton，a onetime British merchant-navy officer who had got to within 100 miles of the South Pole in 1908，started a business before his 1914 voyage to make money from movie and still photography...”可知亚历山大认为他的这次航行就是为了挣钱。故C项正确。
答案：C
想象性作文
本单元的写作项目属于新课标中说明文或记叙文中的“想象性”作文。这类题目要求学生在头脑中创造出从未接触过的甚至根本不存在的新的形象。想象性写作允许自由想象、自主发挥的空间较大，因此需要灵活的思维能力和丰富的想象能力。要写好此类文章，应注意以下几点：
1．首先要确定写作主题。确定主题，明确写作中心，是写好文章的前提，想象性写作也不例外。因为想象虽然可以海阔天空，但总要围绕一个中心进行，这个中心就是主题。
2．想象美好，立意深刻。想象性作文必须要有一个“美好”的中心思想。如果只是瞎编一个热闹离奇的故事，就失去了想象的意义。
3．构思要巧妙，想象要合理。构思和想象是写好此类文章的关键，既要合乎逻辑，又要匠心独运，或启迪思维，或引人入胜。
4．列出写作提纲，合理安排顺序。通过合理想象列出写作素材，然后筛选确定；而后再根据写作对象的特点合理安排顺序。
5．前后一致，自圆其说。不管允许想象的空间有多大，都要做到符合逻辑，顺理成章，这一点对于写好此类文章尤其重要。
【典型句式】
1．Sometimes I dream about life in the future.
我有时梦想未来的生活。
2．Maybe in the future we can travel in space.

Many of us living in apartments can only dream about growing vegetables in our own yards，but thanks to Foop，a smart home planting pod(箱)developed by Japanese company C'estec，we can now grow plants in our own home.
Foop is a hydroponic(水培的)pod that allows users to grow plants in water instead of soil.Its designers say that people can use Foop to grow popular vegetables，all of which can be raised from seeds and will develop faster than non-hydroponic plants.
The device(设备)comes with a clear cover that lets you check the progress of your crops.All the settings—temperature，light，water levels，etc.—are done through a smartphone app(应用)．
It was primarily designed for people living in crowded cities like Tokyo，so it's really simple to use.You plant the seeds in certain places.After that's done，all you have to do is pair the Foop with your smartphone and you'll receive a prediction of how long the plants will take to fully grow.
To make sure that plants have everything they need to grow well，Foop depends on a number of built-in features，like lights and environmental regular winds.And just in case you're not the kind of person who checks phone messages every five seconds，the device features a small LED screen that can show 20 different states of the plants.Once they are fully grown，you should open the clear cover and help yourself to some home-grown vegetables.
Foop will come to the market in September，but C'estec has already started taking orders earlier.You'll have to pay $360 for it，but you must hurry，as the first order will be only $100.
So now you can grow your vegetables indoors，raise bees for honey indoors，and socialize on the Internet.Soon you won't have to leave the house at all，and when you do，you'll probably just jump on your WalkCar instead of actually walking.Technology，man，you have got to love it!

These are some ideas that some people came up with about what the life will be like in the year 2500.
We will have established a base on the moon.School kids can take field trips to the moon weekly.We will have found cures(疗法)for AIDS and cancers.The war will have ended and peace flows freely through the land.Kids will learn more and be smarter than ever before！History will be the main subject at school.Cafeteria(自助餐厅)food will be delicious！You just walk up to a machine，stick out your tongue，and it will scan your taste buds(味蕾)to see what you want to eat.21*cnjy*com
—Kristen
Here I am in the wonderful year of 2500 and life is so easy.I work in a pet store and it is so hard！I have to wake up at midnight every day and fly my car to the store.It takes so long to get there.It takes me 20 seconds to get to the store in Mississippi from my home in Florida！At work，I have to push 5 buttons and then I go home.It takes 2 seconds and that is like forever.
—Morgan
In the year 2500，I think we will have invented cars that run on things we don't need like garbage.Tail gas will smell like whatever you like such as chocolate.I also predict that buildings will be able to go into a different dimension(维)so your car won't hit them.The cars in 2500 don't fly，for we haven't got that technology yet，but they can hover(盘旋)up to seven feet.These cars made for speed!
—Carly
Instead of cars，we may have hovering devices that float around.We could also have electric cars instead of gas-powered cars.Food might be more healthy.What I believe is that the environment will change the most.The environmental changes will also determine many other changes.If more people try to help the environment，then perhaps in 2500 we will have more forests and wildlife.If people won't help the environment，then we will have no forests and little wildlife left.
—Roberta

Zero gravity looks cool.But what about the thing no one likes to talk about？Yes，that is right：going to the bathroom.Zero gravity makes this everyday task quite a challenge.Astronauts have to be toilet-trained all over again.
The Apollo astronauts raised themselves off the seat of their chairs and stuck a clear plastic bag to their backsides with sticky strips.Another astronaut watched closely to be sure no waste matter escaped the seal.(You would not want that stuff floating around the cabin！)When the deed was done，the astronaut cleaned up with a piece of plastic attached to the inside of the bag，removed the bag，dropped a disinfectant pill in with the waste matter，and put the whole thing，sealed，into a special container.
Donald W Rethke，an engineer for Hamilton Standard Space Systems，developed a more private way to answer nature's call：the space toilet.It is somewhat like the kind of toilet one would find on commercial airplanes—with unique adaptation to zero gravity，of course.For instance，it has thigh bars that keep the astronaut from floating off the seat.【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
The astronaut defecates(排便)in a bag and urinates(排尿)in a hose.Solid waste and liquid waste are kept separated because at least 85% of the urine is recycled and，yes，after careful filtration，used for drinking and other purposes(Water is always in demand in space)．A vacuum sucks the waste materials into the toilet，where the waste is compacted into hamburger-like patties for easy storage.Although not exactly like an earthbound visit to the toilet，it is at the very least much more private than in the early days of space travel.
【语篇解读】 本文为说明文，题材为科普知识。文章介绍了宇航员是如何在太空中上厕所以及进行废物处理的。【来源：21cnj*y.co*m】

解析：细节理解题。根据首段的内容可知，零重力使在太空中上厕所这个日常任务也变成一种挑战。根据第三段中的“Donald W Rethke，an engineer for Hamilton Standard Space Systems，developed a more private way to answer nature's call：the space toilet.”可知，这种“大自然的召唤”就是上厕所。故选D。
答案：D
9．How did astronauts use the toilet system in the Apollo days?

答案：A
10．To ensure the user remains seated，the toilet comes equipped with ________．
A．plastic bags B．sticky strips
C．wide hoses D．thigh bars
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的“For instance，it has thigh bars that keep the astronaut from floating off the seat.”可知选D。

2016年高考英语阅读理解篇章结构分析
(天津卷D篇)
【语篇解读】 文章主要介绍每个人都希望成功，但是人们在实施任务的时候会出现启动疲惫和表现疲惫，这是造成失败的两种原因，文章具体介绍如何克服这两种疲惫。
Failure is probably the most exhausting experience a person ever has.There is nothing more tiring than not succeeding.
失败可能是一个人所经历过的最筋疲力尽的体验。没有比不成功更让人累的事情了。
We experience this tiredness in two ways：as start-up fatigue(疲惫)and performance fatigue.①In the former case，we keep putting off a task because it is either too boring or too difficult.And the longer we delay it，the more tired we feel.
我们通过两种方式体验这种疲惫：启动疲惫和表现疲惫。在前一种情况下，我们不断推迟某个任务，因为它太无聊或者太难。我们拖延的时间越长，我们就觉得越累。
Such start-up fatigue is very real，even if not actually physical，not something in our muscles and bones.②The solution is obvious though perhaps not easy to apply：always handle the most difficult job first.
这种启动疲惫是非常真实的，即使不是身体上的，不是肌肉和骨骼上的。解决方案是显而易见的，虽然也许不容易使用：总是先处理最困难的工作。21·世纪*教育网
Years ago，I was asked to write 102 essays on the great ideas of some famous authors.Applying my own rule，I determined to write them in alphabetical order(按字母顺序)，never letting myself leave out a tough idea.And I always started the day's work with the difficult task of essay-writing.Experience proved that the rule works.
几年前，我被要求写102篇关于一些著名作家的思想的文章。用我自己的规则，我决定按字母顺序来写，决不让自己落下任何一个强硬的想法。我总是从困难的任务开始一天的工作。经验证明，这种规则有成效。
Performance fatigue is more difficult to handle.Though willing to get started，we cannot seem to do the job right.③Its difficulties appear so great that，however hard we work，we fail again and again.In such a situation，I work as hard as I can—then let the unconscious take over.
表现疲惫更难处理。表现疲惫是虽然愿意开始，但看起来没有做正确的工作。无论我们多么努力地工作，困难却是如此之大，我们一次又一次地失败。在这样的情况下，我尽力努力工作，让潜意识来控制我。
When planning Encyclopaedia Britannica(《大英百科全书》)，I had to create a table of contents based on the topics of its articles.Nothing like this had ever been done before，and day after day I kept coming up with solutions，but none of them worked.My fatigue became almost unbearable.
当计划写《大英百科全书》时，我不得不创建一个基于文章主题的目录。之前从来没有过这样的做法，之后每天我都不断想出解决方案，但是都没有成功。我的疲惫几乎无法忍受。
One day，mentally exhausted，I wrote down all the reasons why this problem could not be solved.I tried to convince myself that the trouble was with the problem itself，not with me.Relieved，I sat back in an easy chair and fell asleep.
一天，精神崩溃的我写下了无法解决这一问题的所有原因。我试图说服自己，麻烦的是这个问题本身，而不是我。很放松地，我坐在安乐椅上睡着了。
An hour later，I woke up suddenly with the solution clearly in mind.In the weeks that followed，the solution which had come up in my unconscious mind proved correct at every step.Though I worked as hard as before，I felt no fatigue.Success was now as exciting as failure had been depressing.
一个小时后，我突然醒来，头脑中解决方案非常清晰。在接下来的几周里，在我的潜意识头脑中想出的解决方案证明了每一步是正确的。虽然我和以前一样努力，但我没有感到丝毫疲惫。成功时的兴奋度就和失败时的沮丧程度一样。
Human beings，I believe，must try to succeed.Success，then，means never feeling tired.
我相信，人类一定要努力成功。那么成功，意味着永远不会感到疲惫。

如何写新闻报道
新闻是对最近发生的事实的报道。具体地讲，新闻是一种客观存在的事实。这种事实在时间上是最近发生的，在内容上是新鲜的，在价值上是大家所关心和需要的，并且需要通过新闻工具和其他各种手段进行报道传播。其最大的特点是真实。21*cnjy*com
新闻报道，记录的是发生过的事情，因此凡涉及此报道的具体内容，应用一般过去时表达。
英文新闻报道通常包括下面四个部分：
1．标题：标题是新闻的题目，是编辑对最有新闻价值的内容的浓缩、概括。为了撷取新闻要点、诠释新闻意义、吸引读者阅读，好的标题应该简洁明了。如：
①A Terrible Earthquake
②A Sandstorm Hit the Northwest
③China－The First Spacewalk
2．导语：导语是消息的开头的第一段或第一句话，它扼要地揭示出消息的核心内容。如：
①September 29，2011 saw China's first step towards building a space station.
②On October 23，2015 a terrible earthquake struck the east of Turkey.
3．主体：主体是消息的主要部分，它用充足的事实表现主题，是对导语内容的进一步展开和阐释。主体要根据不同内容运用适当句型对新闻细节进行描述，如：
①The earthquake destroyed nearly everything in Wenchuan county，Sichuan Province.
②They had to put up tents because it was raining hard.
③The government sent 3，000 firefighters and policemen there to help them move to a safe place.21教育网
4．结束语：一般是最后一句话或者一段话，通常对全文内容做概括性的总结。有时，作者根据报道的事实在结束语中提出令人深思的问题。
【典型句式】
①In a word，it is necessary for us to learn to protect ourselves.
②I feel sad.If we all do something for them，things will be sure to get better.【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
③I believe we can certainly overcome the disaster with the public and the government working together.

Those accustomed to browsing through thousands of books in large bookstores may find Japan's Morioka Shoten a little strange.That's because this tiny bookstore that is located in Ginza，Tokyo sells only a single book at a time.
Opened in May 2015，Morioka Shoten is the brainchild of Yoshiyuki Morioka.He began his career as a bookstore clerk in Tokyo's Kanda district before branching out to open his own store.It was here while organizing book reading and signing that he realized that customers usually came into the store with one title in mind.Morioka began to wonder if a store could exist by selling multiple copies of just one single book.In November 2014，he partnered with Masamichi Toyama to establish a unique bookstore with the philosophy of “A Single Room with a Single Book”．
The selections that are picked by Morioka change weekly and vary widely to attract customers with different interests.Recent choices include The True Deceiver，an award-winning Swedish novel by Tove Jansson，Hans Andersen's Fairy Tales，and a collection of Karl Blossfeldt's photography of plants.Morioka has also selected books written by a famous Japanese author Mimei Ogawa.
To highlight his only offering，Morioka often uses clever tricks.For example，when selling a book about flowers，the storekeeper decorated his shop with the ones that had been mentioned in the book.He also encourages authors to hold talks and discussions so they can connect with customers.Morioka says his goal is for the customers to experience being inside a book，not just a bookstore.
Risky as the idea might seem，things appear to be going well.The storekeeper says he has sold over 2，100 books.Things can get better given that his bookstore is becoming increasingly popular not just among the locals but also visitors from other countries.

课件89张PPT。Unit4 Making the news单元质量评估(四)
时间：100分钟 分数：120分
第一部分 阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)
第一节(共15小题，每小题2分，满分30分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项A、B、C和D中，选出最佳选项。
A
They already guide the blind and other disabled people；now dogs are to be trained to help people with dementia(痴呆)or Alzheimer's.Alzheimer's can make people confuse night and day or forget basic things such as washing and drinking enough water.
The dogs will be trained to respond to sound triggers(触发器)in the home that make them perform tasks.The duties will include reminding their owners to take medicine，as well as encouraging them to eat，drink and sleep regularly.
The idea was developed by design students at Glasgow School of Art and will now be put into practise by Alzheimer Scotland and Dogs for the Disabled.The first dogs will be distributed to four Scottish couples，where one of the partners is in the early stages of dementia.670，000 people in Britain have dementia and one in three over 65 will develop the condition.By 2021 this is expected to rise to one million.
Joyce Gray of Alzheimer Scotland said，“People in the early stages of dementia are still able to live a relatively normal life，and dogs help to maintain routine.”Another advantage of using the pets as companions is that dogs can give them a sense of silent support and companionship.Ms Gray said，“The evidence is that people may forget familiar faces but not pets.It's such a strong bond that people often remember them longest.People don't need to communicate verbally(口头上)but they can still interact.You can have a speechless bond.”2-1-c-n-j-y
Helen McCain，director of Dogs for the Disabled，said，“People with dementia often forget to take medicine.If a dog presents them with a bag with pills in it there's a greater chance of them taking it.The dogs would also encourage the owners to take them out for walks，ensuring they keep exercising and interacting with other people.”

The media provides us with the observations and experiences from which we build up our personal understanding of the world and how it works.Much of our view of reality is based on media messages.The media，to a great extent，gives us our sense of reality.
Freedom of the media carries with it certain responsibilities of honesty，fairness，accuracy and account-ability.The power of the media to create and destroy human values comes with great responsibility.www-2-1-cnjy-com
The media is powerful in the political system，having great influence on politics and on forming social change.The power is to decide who will communicate what to whom.Television can greatly influence the election of a national leader on the basis of his or her image.
Professional journalists do have a code of ethics(道德标准)．Journalists make a judgment about what's safe and appropriate to report，which often involves difficult choices.German sociologist Max Weber distinguishes between“ethics of conviction”and“ethics of responsibility”．According to the latter(ethics of responsibility)，journalists must take into account the foreseeable consequences of their reporting，and the impact it will have on society.The former，on the other hand，asks journalists to tell the truth，regardless of the consequences.According to Weber，both ideas of ethics should be considered.
Without doubt，information is power，and the big owners of the mass media are very powerful people.Television and radio stations，newspapers，magazines，and websites are，largely，owned and controlled by profit-making businesses.It is not strange that their ideas will get promoted at times.
It is my view that such power and responsibility should never be left in the hands of a few.I believe it is our responsibility as concerned citizens to make sure we are not merely passive viewers，readers or listeners.Together we can have a huge influence on the media by making our views known.
【语篇解读】 媒体对公众的价值观，对整个社会有着很大的影响，因此应肩负起相应的责任。

A．the media is more interested in politics than other fields
B．forming social change is the main duty of the media
C．the great power of the media is controlled by political figures
D．the media can affect politics by forming political figures' images

Depression is much higher amongst female bosses than male bosses，a new US survey finds.Dr Tetyana Pudrovska，the study's first author，explained：“Women with job authority－the ability to hire，fire，and influence pay－have greatly more symptoms of depression than women without this power.But men with job authority have fewer symptoms of depression than men without such power.”
The study followed 1，500 middle-aged women and 1，300 middle-aged men who all graduated from high schools in Wisconsin.The men and women were surveyed in 1993 and 2004 to look at the connection between how much authority they had at work and symptoms of depression.
The results showed that amongst men and women with lower levels of authority at work，women had slightly higher levels of depression.This is normal since overall women suffer from depression slightly more than men.Amongst men and women with higher levels of authority at work，however，it was women who had many more symptoms of depression than men.Men in authority actually had a 10% lower risk of depression，while authority increased the risk of women having depressive symptoms by 9%.
Dr Pudrovska continued：“What shocked us is that women with job authority in our study are advantaged in terms of most characteristics that are strong signs of positive mental health.These women have more education，higher incomes，better jobs，and higher levels of job satisfaction than women without job authority.Yet，they have worse mental health than lower－status(地位)women.”
The cause of this discrepancy is not known，but Dr Pudrovska says：“Years of social science research suggests that women in authority positions deal with interpersonal anxiety，negative social interactions，negative stereotypes，prejudice，social isolation(社会孤立)，as well as resistance(抵抗)from colleagues.Women in authority positions are viewed as lacking in the assertiveness(果断)and confidence of strong leaders.But when these women display such characteristics，they are judged negatively for being unfeminine(不像女性的)．This causes mental stress.”
Men，on the other hand，do not have to face these kinds of negative stereotypes about their abilities.
【语篇解读】 最新的研究表明：女性上司比男性上司更容易在工作中感受到压力。
8．Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?

B．Female bosses get the same stress from work as male bosses.
C．Female bosses get the same stress from work as employees.
D．Female bosses get more stress from work than male bosses.
解析：主旨大意题。文章开篇点题“Depression is much higher amongst female bosses than male bosses，a new US survey finds.”可知，女性上司比男性上司更容易在工作中感受到压力。
答案：D
9．What conclusion can we draw from the passage?
A．The higher levels of authority，the fewer women suffer depression.
B．The higher levels of authority，the more women suffer depression.
C．The lower levels of authority，the more men suffer depression.
D．The lower levels of authority，the more women suffer depression.
解析：推理判断题。根据第三段“The results showed...however，it was women who had many more symptoms of depression than men.”可知，调查结果显示，在同时处于较低工作地位的男女中，女性患抑郁症的概率稍微比男性高一点。女性患抑郁症的概率高于男性是一种很正常的现象。然而，在较高工作地位上，女性比男性更易患抑郁症。由此推知，职位越高，女性越容易患抑郁症。
答案：B
10．What did Dr Pudrovska think of the results?
A．Exciting. B．Surprising.
C．Disappointing. D．Inspiring.
解析：细节理解题。根据第四段“What shocked us is that...”可知，他对调查结果感到吃惊。
答案：B

Do you ever feel that there is no progress in your life？If the answer is yes，it's time to think about your strategy again，according to success coach and author Jack Canfield.
Canfield was one of the driving forces behind the books that developed a new cultural term，“Chicken Soup for the Soul(心灵鸡汤)”，and he's more than familiar with the rules of success and failure.After all，“Chicken Soup”was turned down 144 times before it was actually published.
“The first rule，I think，is the most important one，”Canfield says.“It's called：Take 100 percent responsibility(责任)for your life and your results.”To understand what it means to actually do this，Canfield suggests thinking of this rule as a mathematical formula(数学公式)：E＋R＝O(Events＋Response＝Outcome)(事件＋反应＝结果)
Most people，Canfield says focus on outside cause easily—your business isn't doing well，your friend won't talk to you，you were late for a date.You may say：“The market is influencing my business.My friend has changed.Traffic made me late.”Canfield explains that you give too little care to how much your own response to the event plays a role in the outcome.“What creates the outcome is your response to events，”he says.
To see this E＋R＝O formula in action，Canfield tells you to imagine an event in which your partner forgets your birthday.“Most people would respond，‘Oh，I feel bad because that means my husband doesn't love me，’”Canfield says.“You could say，‘someone who loves me forgot my birthday.Now I'm worried，not feeling bad.’”That changed response could lead to a better outcome.For example，instead of getting into a fight with your partner due to your “feeling bad”，perhaps your worry leads you to have a more meaningful discussion.
Finally，Canfield says that the “R” in the formula is a key point to success.“We have choices about responses，”he says.
【语篇解读】 成功教练杰克·坎菲尔德向我们介绍了一则公式：事件＋反应＝结果。
12．What can we know about“Chicken Soup for the Soul”？
A．It was spoken highly of by Jack Canfield.
B．It once had great difficulty in being published.
C．It sold very well in the national market.
D．It was written according to Canfield's experience.
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段“‘Chicken Soup’was turned down 144 times before it was actually published.”可知，心灵鸡汤在真正出版前被拒绝了144次。由此可知，它的出版遭遇了很大的困难。
答案：B
13．According to Canfield，when faced with failure，we should ________．21·世纪*教育网
A．criticize ourselves and be strict with others
B．try to take some main responsibility for our life
C．accept the challenge bravely from our life
D．focus on inside reasons and pay attention to our response
解析：细节理解题。根据第四段“Most people，Canfield says focus on outside causes easily...Canfield explains that you give too little care to how much your own response to the event plays a role in the outcome.‘What creates the outcome is your response to events.’he says.”可知，坎菲尔德说大多数人都容易关注外部原因，忽视了我们对事件的反应会对事件结果产生多少影响，决定结果的是我们对于事件的反应，由引可知，面对困难的时候，我们应该关注内部自身原因，重视我们的反应。
答案：D
14．By giving the example in Para 5，Canfield wants to tell the readers that ________．
A．we need to try our best to change our life
B．it's very important to trust each other
C．people's attitude decides the outcome
D．discussion is of great importance
解析：推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“That changed response could lead to a better outcome.For example，instead of getting into a fight with your partner due to your ‘feeling bad’，perhaps your worry leads you to have a more meaningful discussion.”可知，改变了的反应能够导致一个更好的结果，比如说，不要因为你的“感觉不好”就和伴侣打一架，可能你的担心会促使你们进行一次有意义的谈话交流，也就是说，对同一件事，不同的态度产生的结果完全不同，即人们的态度决定了结果。
答案：C
15．Which of the following is the best title for this passage?
A．A formula that can create better outcomes
B．A book full of success strategies
C．Driving forces behind a successful life
D．Success coach points out the reason for failure
解析：标题判断题。本文主要介绍了成功教练杰克·坎菲尔德向我们介绍了一则公式：事件＋反应＝结果，这个公式能够产生更好的结果。

答案：
Dear_Li_Hua，
This_is_Collins_from_Teens.I'm_sorry_to_hear_from_you_that_you_plan_to_drop_out_and_find_a_job_away_from_your_parents.It is a very dangerous idea for a teenager like you to intend to make a living away from home.2·1·c·n·j·y
As a high school student，it is natural for us to meet problems in our school life.Both our teachers and parents show their love to us every day in the form of praise，criticisms or even complaints.We should be aware of it and grateful to it.
In my opinion，the most important duty for you today is to learn knowledge and learn how to deal with different difficulties at home and at school.To face the unknown world is our next step after graduation.
I hope my idea will be useful to you.
Yours_sincerely，
Collins
Unit 5 First aid
【导语】 在别人发生危险时，我们会尽量去进行急救。但是你知道进行急救应该注意哪些问题吗？
Never try and reset(重新安装)a broken bone.Remember，this is first aid－if you are doing this，you are preparing a patient for transport.Unless you are 110% sure of what you are doing，resetting a broken bone runs a strong risk of making things worse.
It is dangerous to give aspirin(阿司匹林)to anyone under the age of 16 as it can cause potentially damage to the brain and liver before this age.www-2-1-cnjy-com
Never，ever put yourself in danger！As much as this seems to lack compassion，remember that being a hero，in this case，means nothing if you come back dead.
If you aren't sure what to do，leave it to the professionals.If it's not a life-critical injury，doing the wrong thing can endanger the patient.See the note about training，up above in tips.
Do not move the person.It could harm them even more；unless they are in immediate danger.Wait for the ambulance to arrive to take over treatment of the person.
Do not touch someone who is being shocked by an electrical current.Turn off the power or use a piece of non-conductive material(eg，wood，dry rope，dry clothing)to separate him from the power source before touching him.
Before touching a victim or offering any aid，get consent to treat！Check the laws in your area.If someone has a “Do not resuscitate(使复苏)”order，respect it(only if you see proof)．If the person is unconscious and at risk of death or injury，without any known “Do not resuscitate”order，go ahead and treat by implied consent.
【词海拾贝】
1．risk n．&v.冒险
2．potentially adv.潜在地
3．compassion n．同情
4．consent n．同意，许可

(4)He was about to lock the door when he heard a strange sound.
＝He was on the point of locking the door when he heard a strange sound.
他正要锁门，这时听见了一个奇怪的声音。
【学法点拨】
when的这种用法表现在，前句用了不同的时态：was/were about to do表示“即将要做”；was/were doing表示“正在做”；had just done表示“刚刚做过”。在这三种情况下，when句中的动作发生了。此外，had just done...when...跟had hardly/scarcely done...when...和had no sooner done...than...句式有异曲同工之妙，因为过去完成时毕竟表示动作在先，所以在翻译时要体现出哪个动作在先，哪个在后。

Night milk quickened the start of sleep and caused the mice to sleep longer.
夜间的牛奶加快了睡眠，使老鼠睡得更久了。
While the effect of cows, milk harvested at different time has not been tested on humans up to now，③taking melatonin drugs has been suggested to those who are struggling to fall asleep at night.
虽然在不同的时间收获的牛奶效果还没有进行测试，但是到现在为止，含有褪黑激素的药物已被建议给那些失眠的人使用。
Previous studies have also indicated that milk can be excellent for helping sleep because of the calcium content，which helps people to relax.
以前的研究也表明，牛奶可以很好地帮助睡眠，那是因为含钙，钙有助于人放松。
Milk is also sugar-free and additive-free with nutritionists recommending skimmed milk as the best choice before bed as it is the least fattening.The more fat you take in before bedtime，the greater burden you will put on your body at night.
牛奶无糖且无添加剂，营养学家推荐脱脂牛奶是睡前最好的选择，因为它含有最少的脂肪。睡觉前吃的脂肪越多，身体的负担就会越大。

Dear_John，
I_am_glad_to_receive_your_letter,and_now_I'll_tell_you_some-thing_about_the_first_aid_course_in_our_school_and_some_suggestions_about_first_degree_burns.
The first aid course is a necessary part of our education and will make us more useful members of our society.If we have learnt about first aid，we can help someone who has had an accident，even can save someone's life one day.
The suggestions about first degree burns are as follows.Cool the burned area at once.Place the affected area under cold running water，but don't apply cold water for too long a time.You'd better go to hospital if the affected area is still painful.
The first aid course is very interesting and useful.It gives us information about many situations，and also gives us a chance to practise first aid treatment.Would you like to come here to study again? We are all looking forward to it.
Best_wishes，
Yours，

Ⅰ.阅读理解
阅读下面的短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中选出最佳选项。
Thrift stores are a refuge(避难所)for countless items from landing in garbage piles.Value Village，for example，saves more than 650 million pounds of clothing from landfills(垃圾填埋场)each year，making it one of the largest recyclers of used garments in the world.Their stores give a second life to 1.8 million pounds of clothes every day，which is equal to 600 mid-sized cars.Almost 100 percent of clothing and textiles are recyclable，yet 85 percent of them end up in landfills.It's estimated that the average person throws away 70 pounds of clothing a year.
Lindsay Coulter is the so-called “Queen of Green” with the David Suzuki Foundation，educating people on how to live a greener life by making changes around the house.She says that donating or shopping at thrift stores is an excellent way to exercise all three of the three R's：reduce，reuse and recycle.She says，“Whether it's a purse or a pair of shoes，it's really worth considering going to thrift stores as another point of contact to help reduce your consumption.”
Coulter points out that since landfills are airtight，textiles take longer to break down.“I'd imagine things like an old towel，a rag or an old T-shirt will last a really long time，”she says.The beauty of thrift shopping is that the supply is never-ending，so if you don't find what you're looking for one day，it's likely to show up in no time.
One person who knows this quite well is Jodi Jacyk，costume specialist in the Department of Theatre and Film at the University of British Columbia.She says the majority of items for the university's productions are purchased second-hand.Because of her shrinking budget，items like clothing and shoes are thrifted from Value Village.“We are constantly thrifting and we reuse costumes for many years.Thrift shopping is a much easier，cheaper way to do things，”she says.
The next time you need to lighten your closet，take the opportunity to go thrift shopping to lighten both your carbon footprint and your financial burden at the same time.

A
External bleeding.Apply direct pressure.Place a clean，folded cloth over the injured area and firmly apply pressure.If blood soaks through，do not remove it.Instead，cover that cloth with another one and continue to apply pressure to the wound for 7－10 minutes.If the bleeding is from the ear，place a clean bandage over the ear，lay the victim on his side，and allow the blood to drain out through the bandage.【来源：21cnj*y.co*m】
Elevate the injury.Position the wounded part of the body above the level of the heart if possible while you apply direct pressure.
Know the pressure points.If direct pressure and elevation don't sufficiently slow the bloodflow，find a pressure point.Large arteries(动脉)found close to the skin's surface supply blood to the head and to each arm and leg.The most common pressure points used during the first aid are located in the upper arms and in the creases above the upper legs.Apply pressure to the closest pressure point to the wound so that the artery is pressed between your fingers and the bone directly behind the artery.If using the pressure point on a leg，you may need to use the heel of your hand instead of your fingers.
Resort to a tourniquet(止血带，压脉器)．On very rare occasions everything listed above may fail.To prevent the victim from dying，you should apply a tourniquet.Once a tourniquet is applied，it should not be loosened or removed until the victim has reached medical help.Use a tourniquet only if everything listed above has failed.If you use a tourniquet，write down somewhere on the victim the time when it was applied，so medical persons will know how long it has been in place.

A British man has been reunited with his leather wallet—nearly twenty years after it was lost during a train ride across Switzerland.
It appears no one stole anything during the 18 years that Colin Mendoza's wallet was missing as it still contains the passport and his credit cards(信用卡)，driving license，receipts and an identification card from an old job.But where it was all this time and how it was discovered remains a mystery.
Colin still isn't certain how he lost the wallet while traveling by train from Zurich Airport to Geneva in 1996.He fell asleep on the train and didn't realize it was missing until he was getting into a car in Geneva.He reported it missing to the police.
Years passed and Colin forgot about the incident until he received an e-mail from a police officer in the tiny Swiss mountain town of Chur.It turns out someone found the wallet on the floor of a shopping centre in Chur and handed it in to local police.After a quick search online an officer found his e-mail address.
Colin，50，said：“When I received the e-mail I thought that was unexpected and happened suddenly.I'm not sure what I'm going to do with it.”Colin said the wallet itself－a birthday gift from his wife－is in good condition and showing few signs of additional wear and tear.“I'm amazed at its good condition and that it had my entire old ID －my passport，driving license，old company ID and all my credit cards.”Colin said the police haven't figured out how the wallet ended up in Chur.
A police spokesman said：“We have no idea how it found its way from the train to a shopping centre.But the_man was happy to have it recovered.”

Most teenagers in the United States spend their time trying to make time for school，family and friends.But some choose bigger goals.【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
At age 15，Winter Vinecki has already had more successes than most people have in their lifetime.“I recently completed a marathon on all seven continents and became the youngest person in the world to do so.And I was really doing this for my dad.”
Doctors discovered that Winter's father had a rare and deadly form of prostate(前列腺)cancer when she was nine years old.Then he died 10 months later.“When he was first diagnosed(诊断)with prostate cancer I immediately knew I had to do something to help him.That's when I formed Team Winter for prostate cancer research and awareness.”
Through Team Winter and social media，Winter Vinecki has raised almost 500，000 dollars.She has taken prostate cancer education worldwide through foot races called marathons，on seven continents.In the United States she travels continually to talk about prostate cancer and urge others to act.
Winter Vinecki attended a conference recently in Los Angeles，California and spoke at the conference as one of several teenagers who spoke about young people who were living extraordinary lives.
“So prostate cancer is much more common but men don't want to talk about it.So that is why a ten-year-old girl had to go out there and start talking about it for them.”
Another speaker was Jack Andraka who invented a sensor which is not as expensive as traditional equipment that can't be afforded by most common people.It can identify cancers of the pancreas(胰腺)and lungs.He was 15 at the time.
Jack is now 17 and seeking patents(专利)for his latest inventions.He has developed low-cost water quality equipment which can help identify and remove heavy metals and poisonous chemicals from water.
“I hope to see them used in the developing nations such as Bangladesh and parts of China and India，especially as well as in parts of Africa，where these heavy metal and pesticides(农药) and other kinds of waste are a major problem.”

As many as 20% of all children in the United States suffer from some form of the learning disorder called dyslexia(读写困难症)．
Experts on dyslexia say that the problem is not a disease.They say that persons with dyslexia use information in a different way.One of the world's great thinkers and scientists Albert Einstein was dyslexic.Einstein said that he never thought in words the way that most people do.He said that he thought in pictures instead.The American inventor Thomas Edison was also dyslexic.Dyslexia first was recognized in Europe and the United States more than 80 years ago.Many years passed before doctors discovered that persons with the disorder were not mentally slow or disabled.The doctors found that the brains of persons with dyslexia are different.In most people，the left side of the brain—the part that controls language—is larger than the right side.In persons with dyslexia，the right side of the brain is bigger.Doctors are not sure what causes this difference.However，research has shown that dyslexia is more common in males than in females，and it is found more often in persons who are left-handed.【版权所有：21教育】
No one knows the cause of dyslexia，but some scientists believe that it may result from chemical changes in a baby's body long before it is born.They are trying to find ways to teach persons with dyslexia.Dyslexia persons think differently and need special kinds of teaching help.After they have solved their problems with language，they often show themselves to be especially intelligent or creative.

Blue whales are the largest animals ever known to have existed on the planet，and they can grow to a length of 100 feet and weigh more than 330，000 pounds.But recently researchers have found that these whales are on the move and they have migrated from California waters to areas off Canada and Alaska for the first time since commercial whaling ended in 1965.【来源：21cnj*y.co*m】
The researchers identified 15 blue whales that have appeared off the coast of British Columbia and the Gulf of Alaska since 1997.Four of these whales were recognized as ones that were once sighted off California shores，suggesting that the whales are returning to an old migration pattern between the coasts.
Before commercial whaling began in the early 1900s，blue whales were found widely throughout the North Pacific and California waters.But from the 1920s to the 1960s，whaling severely reduced the whale populations.Blue whales never recovered in the North Pacific，making sightings in this area rare.However，much larger groups of whales have been observed close to California since the 1970s.
The scientists had previously thought that the California population was separate from the population that had historically lived in the North Pacific waters.But the current study shows that whales off the coast of British Columbia and the Gulf of Alaska are likely part of the California population.
To identify the blue whales，the researchers looked at photos of cetaceans taken in the North Pacific Ocean and compared them with a library of blue whale pictures taken along the west coast of the United States and Southern Pacific.Up to now，the researchers are not quite sure why the whales are changing their migration patterns，but they suspect that the whales may be following their food moving farther north by the changes in ocean conditions.
【语篇解读】 本文主要讲的是蓝鲸的迁移以及有可能引起迁移的原因。

答案：B
7．What might make blue whales migrate according to the researchers?21*cnjy*com
A．Commercial whaling. B．Weather conditions.

Will your parents take you seriously，believe what you say，listen to and respect your opinions，and hear you out without interrupting(打断)？Some parents are easy to talk to，but some are not.Communication between parents and children is an important issue.Some children just don't know how to communicate with their parents.Well，here are some tips for you to talk with your parents effectively.
Be clear and direct.Be as clear as you can about what you think，feel，and want.Speaking about what you think，feel and want can help your parents understand your situation.They can listen better or be more helpful if they understand what you mean and what's really going on.
Be honest.If you speak about what you think，feel and want honestly，a parent will be likely to believe what you say.If you sometimes hide the truth，parents will have a harder time believing what you tell them.If you lie，they'll find it hard to trust you.
Try to understand their point of view.If you have a disagreement，can you see your parents' side？If you can，say so.Telling parents you understand their views and feelings helps them be willing to see yours，too.
Try not to argue.Always using a manner of speaking that's friendly and respectful makes it more likely for parents to listen and take what you say seriously.It also makes it more likely for them to talk to you in the same way.If you think your emotions might get_the_better_of you，do something to blow off emotions before talking：go for a run，cry，or wash your face with cool water.Remember that you should always be calm when you talk to your parents.

If you've used Facebook today，you've probably already seen it：a big red-white-and-blue election(选举)button at the very top of your news page.Within Facebook，it's known as the voter megaphone(选民扩音器)，and this year，the company is rolling it out to every US citizen over the age of 18.But Facebook's programme has drawn a surprising amount of argument in the elections.
It started on Friday，when Mother Jones ran a whole look into the technology behind the megaphone.Thanks to some software mistakes，the 2012 megaphone didn't end up reaching everyone.
The net effect should have been more voters across the board，but the combination has raised criticism about the potential political effects.While some people think it is helpful.
Facebook，for its part，says that all it wants is to get people to vote.“Our effort is neutral(中立的)，” said a company spokesperson，“while we encourage voters to use our programme to focus on the elections，we as a company have not used our products in a way that attempts to influence how people vote.”
Facebook drew criticism this summer for changing news pages as part of a psychology experiment，and finally carried on new research guidelines as a result of the argument.The company says the 2012 experiment is in agreement with the new guidelines，and says that it isn't boosting(宣传)any messages about the parties，only general news content.
In other words，Facebook is already a powerful political tool，however it ends up being used.That's not terribly surprising by itself－there are hundreds of political science studies about the importance of social connection in voting behaviour－but it suggests Facebook itself appears as a new political force.It's easy to imagine a time when Facebook outreach is as important to a campaign as town hall meetings or television ads.Would that be more democratic(民主的)or less？If the critics seem worried，it may be because it's too early to tell.
【语篇解读】 文章介绍了Facebook是怎样改变选举的。
12．Why was the 2012 megaphone unfamiliar to some people?
A．Because of Mother Jones.
B．Because of some software mistakes.
C．Because of its ordinary name.
D．Because of lack of boosting.
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段“Thanks to some software mistakes，the 2012 megaphone didn't end up reaching everyone.”可知，因为一些软件的错误，2012扩音器并没有传达给每一名美国公民。
答案：B
13．What would Facebook probably think of the criticism?
A．The company deserves it.
B．It has nothing to do with the company.
C．It's the parties that should be responsible for that.
D．People should criticize the news instead of the company.
解析：推理判断题。根据第四段内容和第五段“...and says that it isn't boosting any messages about the parties，only general news content.”可推知，Facebook认为自己没有宣传任何有关政党的消息，自己发布的就是新闻而已，因此，它和影响人们投票的批评没有任何关系。
答案：B
14．According to the passage，some people criticized Facebook this summer because it ________．
A．spread messages about the parties
B．set the new guidelines
C．did physical experiments
D．changed news pages
解析：细节理解题。根据第五段首句可知，由于变更用户的消息页面来用作心理学实验，Facebook在今夏引来了批评。
答案：D
15．What's the author's attitude toward Facebook's influence on the election?www.21-cn-jy.com
A．Negative. B．Positive.
C．Uncertain. D．Unconcerned.
解析：作者态度题。根据最后一段“Would that be more democratic or less？If the critics seem worried，it may be because it's too early to tell.”可知作者对Facebook对选举的影响持不确定态度。
答案：C

As is known to all，everyone may meet some challenges and difficulties both in daily life and work，which will cause a great stress if not properly solved.However，we should remember “to reduce stress is to maintain health”，which means that if we are burdened with too much stress，our health will be badly hurt.
Another proverb“A light heart lives long”，offers us valuable advice on how to reduce stress.According to the proverb，we should try to release some stress and relax ourselves，especially after a long time of hard work.21·cn·jy·com
In my opinion，we'd better try solving some problems by changing the way we do it，and then we may find an idea surprisingly.2-1-c-n-j-y

Built in 1997，the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao is one of the newest in the world.It has transformed the industrial city of Bilbao into a travelers' desired destination.The beautiful architecture of the museum has provided a dramatic background for movies and commercials.
The Louvre in Paris，France
Probably the most famous Louvre also holds the most famous painting in the world，the“Mona Lisa”by Leonardo da Vinci.Crowds can be found any day surrounding the small，but mysterious painting of the smiling woman.But，the Louvre is much more than a home to the“Mona Lisa”．The Louvre is visited by more people each year than any other museum in the world.

Just opened in its new downtown location in 2012，the Barnes Foundation is unique in that it is a completely reproduced display from one man's private collection.Dr Albert C Barnes started collecting art in the early 20th century and collected，among others，the largest number of original Renoir paintings in the world.
The Uffizi Gallery in Florence，Italy
Walking on the marbled floors feels like stepping back in time.The building itself is a beautiful palace－like structure with frescoes(湿壁画)decorating the ceilings and walls.Viewers are bowled over(印象深刻)by the works by Botticelli，such as“The Birth of Venus”．Classic artworks from nearly 1，000 years ago describe religious events of the time.

Balancing work and school is not an easy task for me.My first semester in college has come and gone and I've had to balance a job in there too.Many times I wanted to cut one loose.Honestly I think I would have dropped out of school for my job because I need the money.For a while I made myself believe that school was disturbing my job and my money.Then not only was I trying to do work and school，I wanted a social life.Many times I found that there were not enough hours in the day but I realized I wasn't managing my time right.Hanging out with friends may have been wonderful but it wasn't putting money in my pocket or knowledge in my brain.Friends would have to wait.I was back on the see-saw(拉锯局面)of balancing work and school.
Scheduling and planning became the key to my success.Making deadlines for myself and meeting them were important for my college experience.Planning was going well and I felt ready to try and throw a social life back in there.I tried to make plans with friends which didn't conflict with my deadline.That was actually harder than I thought.So once again my social life had to be put off.My friends were very understanding and encouraged me to do my work.Some friends would joke that I was all work and no play but sometimes that's what has to happen to get work done.
As the semester came to an end I can say I learned a lot.Planning is necessary for organization.Writing a to-do list at the beginning of the week and actually completing it make me feel good，and it's an accomplishment to be proud of.Not only have I learned something new on organization，but also I've learned a new tool that I can take everywhere with me and use effectively.

The largest land animal remaining on the earth，the African elephant，is of much importance to the African ecosystem.Unlike other animals，the African elephant is to a great extent the builder of its environment.As a big plant-eater，it significantly shapes the forest-and-savanna surroundings in which it lives，therefore deciding the conditions of existence for millions of other animals that live in its habitat.21·世纪*教育网
It is the elephant's great desire for food that makes it both a disturber of the environment and an important builder of its habitat.In its continuous search for the 300 pounds of plants it must have every day，it kills small trees and bushes，as well as pulls branches off big trees.This results in numerous open spaces in not only deep tropical forests but also the woodlands that cover part of the African savannas.In these open spaces，there are numerous plants in various stages of growth，which attract a variety of other plant-eaters.2-1-c-n-j-y
Take the rainforests for example.In their natural states，the spreading branches overhead shut out sunlight and prevent the growth of plants on the forest floor.By pulling down trees and eating plants，elephants create open spaces，allowing new plants to grow on the forest floor.In such situations，the forests become suitable for large-hoofed plant-eaters to move around and for small-sized plant-eaters to obtain their food as well.21*cnjy*com
Scientists are worried now that the African elephant has become an endangered species.If the elephant dies out，scientists say，many other animals will also disappear from vast areas of forests and savannas，greatly changing and worsening the whole ecosystem.

Nick Vujicic was born with no arms or legs，but the brave 32-year-old man plays football and golf，swims，and surfs.Nick has a small foot on his left side，which helps him balance and enables him to kick.He uses his one foot to type，write with a pen and pick things up between his toes.
“I call it my chicken drumstick，”joked Nick.“I'd be lost without it.When I get in the water I float because 80 percent of my body is lungs and my drumstick acts as a propeller(螺旋桨)．”
When Nick was born，his father was so shocked that he left the hospital room to vomit.His distraught mother couldn't bring herself to hold him until he was four months old.
“It was so hard for them，but right from the start they did their best to make me independent.My dad put me in the water when I was 18 months old and gave me the courage to learn how to swim，”said Nick.
Throughout his childhood Nick dealt with the typical challenges.At the age of seven，Nick tried out some specially designed electronic arms and legs，in the hope that he would be more like other kids.During the short trial period of the electronic arms and legs，Nick realized that even with them，he was still unlike his peers at school，and they turned out to be much too heavy for Nick to operate，affecting his flexibility quite significantly.
“When I was 13 I read a newspaper article about a disabled man who had managed to achieve great things and help others，”said Nick.“I realized why God had made us like this—to give hope to others.It was so inspirational to me that I decided to use my life to encourage others and decided to be thankful for what I do have，not get angry about what I don't.”
“I tell people to keep on getting up when they fall and to always love themselves，”he said.“If I can encourage just one person then my job in this life is done.”By now，he has visited 35 different countries，touring the world as a motivational speaker.
