Ⅰ.阅读理解A
[2019·大同高一检测]
On the third Sunday in June, Americans take time to recognize and thank a special person in the family — fathers! Father's Day celebrates the importance of fathers, young and old and the men thought of as father figures.
The words “the child is father of the man” come from William Wordsworth's poem My Heart Leaps Up. “It means people's personalities form when they are children. They will most likely have the same qualities as an adult that they had as a child.”
Used in everyday speech, one could say, “In his case, the child was father of the man; he loved nature as a child and now works as a botanist (植物学家)”．
Let's say you want to tell a child a story about something that happened long before they were born. You could say it happened when they “were just a twinkle in their father's eyes”. This expression has a humorous and dreamy feel. Here, the word “twinkle” suggests the interest your father had in your mother.
When a much older man is interested in a much younger woman and supports her with his money, he is called her “sugar daddy”. The money part is very important — that's the sugar.
Sometimes fathers are not a good influence or active in the lives of the children. In that case, a person may look for a father figure, a man who is not actually the person's father but who acts like one.
The relationship between a man and his son can be complex. But the relationship between a father and daughter is often simpler. The expression “daddy's little girl” is understood to mean that, in a father's eyes, his daughter can do no wrong.
There is usually not a dry eye at any wedding during the traditional father-and-daughter dance, especially if they are dancing to a song like Michael Buble's “Daddy's Little Girl. ”

It was past midnight when I saw an email that told me that I had been accepted into the International Summer School at Oslo University, Norway. I woke up everyone at home to tell them that I would be one of five hundred students visiting this beautiful Scandinavian country for ten weeks on a full scholarship (奖学金). My parents were delighted but anxious about how I'd manage on my own in a foreign land for the first time.
The day I left the county was packed with excitement and nervousness. I slept through the long flight and woke up to the announcement that we had come to Oslo Airport. Now, if I were in India, I would have taken a taxi to my destination, but my online research had taught me that in Oslo, taking a taxi would be considered as a wasteful way. So I took the subway to the university. Upon my arrival, I was told that my room had been arranged and my roommate had settled in. My roommate was a Chinese student, who became my first friend. Though it was sunny outside, I was tired. I realized it was close to midnight. Sunsets during summer are very late in Norway.
I was to study a course on International Development and the class had students from 20 different countries. I worked with my classmates on group projects. Team work brought us closer as a unit. We realized we shared similar dreams about our future. Oslo is a city that has an excellent public transport system. One can get to a sandy beach or forest within minutes. In our free time, we went for hikes and I realized how much I loved being outdoors. I learnt to read maps and picked up Norwegian. The hardest part was getting used to eating dinner at 5：00 pm.
I grew up and into myself during this trip. I came back to my hometown with a bagful of happy memories including my new friends who had helped me and walked with me in this beautiful country.

Many people may know Coachella, which is one of the largest, most famous and most profitable (盈利的) music festivals in the United States and all over the world. However, few people know Just for Laughs (JFL). Founded by Montreal producer Gilbert Rozon in 1983, Just for Laughs is the largest international comedy festival in the world. Paul Ronca, the festival's director, describes Just for Laughs as the Coachella of comedy. “If you're a fan of comedy or work in it, this festival should be at the very top of your list，” he says.
Just for Laughs was originally a two-day French-only comedy event. In 1985, Andy Nulman joined the festival's staff and introduced English language events as well. Thanks to Andy Nulman, the festival grew from a two-day show to a month-long event drawing international audiences. In 1999, Nulman left the festival's full-time employ. However, he directed its major shows at the Saint-Denis Theatre every July, and remained on the board of directors of the festival's parent company. About 11 years later, Nulman returned to Just for Laughs in July 2010 as president of Festivals and Television.
Now Just For Laughs is coming to Africa. A joint venture (合资企业) between the great comedy brand and a South Africa's company, Just for Laughs Africa will give the African comedians the opportunity of getting international publicity. The long-term continental partnership was announced during the 35th Montreal Comedy Festival, with the news that the first Just for Laughs Africa will take place in Durban, South Africa.
“We have already set up successful Just for Laughs festivals in many cities beyond Montreal including Toronto, Vancouver and Sydney, and we couldn't be more excited by this new venture in South Africa” says Gilbert Rozon, president and founder of the Just for Laughs Group. “The opportunity to bring the experience of the Just for Laughs team to developing African comedy was one we just couldn't decline,_so we agreed on the partnership，” says Gilbert Rozon.

India is known for many colorful and fun festivals. But none is as popular as the festival of lights, Diwali, which is also called Deepavali.
The celebration begins on October 21st, with Dhanteras. For those who love shopping, this is the best day of the celebration. That's because in addition to honoring Lakshmi, the Hindu goddess of wealth, the day is also considered lucky to buy everything － from gold and silver ornaments (装饰品) to new clothes.
The following day is Kali Chaudas, or Narak Chaturdashi. For some Indians it is celebrated with good food and fireworks. For others, it is the time to drive out bad spirits from homes. No matter how it is celebrated, everyone's mind is already focused (集中) on the big day that comes after — Diwali!
Diwali begins with a visit to temples where prayers (祷告) will be given. Then families and friends get together and celebrate by exchanging gifts and sweets. Those who missed the opportunity to buy gold on Dhanteras can make_up_for_it on this equally lucky day. In the evening, households light up their homes with oil lamps and prepare delicious Indian food. Then starts the real fun — fireworks! What makes the displays exciting is that everyone gets to create his/her own show by lighting up their favorite fireworks.
For Indians, Diwali also marks the end of the year. They will celebrate the first day of the New Year the following day.
The final day of the festival honors the relationships between brothers and sisters and is celebrated with more special food and prayers.
For kids, Diwali is like Christmas, except earlier. They get a week's vacation from school! It is no wonder that most kids consider Diwali the best festival of all.

Ⅱ.阅读理解
Just reading Facebook posts — without posting messages or responding to comments — makes users feel bad about themselves, some studies have discovered. A 2015 study at the University of Michigan, for example, found that students who simply read Facebook posts for 10 minutes were in a worse mood by the end of the day than those who posted messages or commented on friends' posts.
Researchers think that users who only read posts may be always comparing their own lives to others' posts and feel they're coming up short. Or users may simply be missing out on face-to-face human communication. This is necessary and important for a healthier state of mind. “In general, when people spend a lot of time passively (被动地) receiving information — reading, but not interacting (交流) with people — they report feeling worse afterward，” said an unusual Facebook blog post.
The research appears to be bad news for Facebook, but Facebook itself is getting the negative news known to the public. In fact, the findings support the company's push to get users to be more active on the site, the blog noted. Research has also found that “interacting with people — especially sharing messages, posts and comments with close friends and thinking of past interactions — is connected with improvements in well-being”．
One commenter to the Facebook blog post noted that it's “no surprise that your conclusions — encouraging ‘active’ Facebook use — are connected with Facebook's business interests. It gives Facebook chances to persuade us into sharing, commenting, and posting more than ever — for our own good！”
The company has faced a lot of negative news about Facebook. Former Facebook Vice President Chamath Palihapitiya told Stanford University graduate business students that social media are destroying society. Palihapitiya said he felt really bad for the role he played in making Facebook so outstanding. “We kind of knew something bad could happen.”
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。研究发现，只在Facebook上浏览文章而不分享动态或与他人互动会使人心情变差。
1．What did the 2015 study mainly show?
A．Not all users considered Facebook useful.
B．Using Facebook in the right way could benefit us.
C．Not all people loved interacting with others on Facebook.
D．Passively using Facebook negatively affected users' moods.
答案与解析：D 细节理解题。根据第一段的“students who simply read Facebook posts for 10 minutes were in a worse mood by the end of the day than those who posted messages or commented on friends' posts.”可知，这个研究表明：在 Facebook上只浏览信息而不主动与他人互动会影响心情。
2．What does the underlined word “This” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A．Avoiding comparing ourselves with others.
B．Reading the posts on Facebook positively.
C．Interacting with others face to face.
D．Sharing experiences on Facebook.
答案与解析：C 词义猜测题。根据画线词前的“Or users may simply be missing out on face-to-face human communication.”可知，此处是指面对面交流对于保持一个健康的心态很重要，故This指代与他人面对面交流。
3．Why did Facebook make the findings known to the public?
A．To encourage people to use Facebook more.
B．To show Facebook's concern about its users.
C．To apologize to its users for the bad influence.
D．To prove the importance of human interaction.
答案与解析：A 推理判断题。根据第三段的“In fact, the findings support the company's push to get users to be more active on the site...”及第四段的“It gives Facebook chances to persuade us into sharing, commenting, and posting more than ever...”可知，Facebook这样做是为了鼓励用户在该平台更活跃，即鼓励人们多使用该网站。
4．From what Chamath Palihapitiya said, we learn that ________.
A．Facebook has some disadvantages
B．Facebook is facing serious challenges
C．Facebook disappoints the public deeply
D．Facebook is improving some students' life
答案与解析：A 推理判断题。根据末段的“Palihapitiya said he felt really bad for the role he played in making Facebook so outstanding. ‘We kind of knew something bad could happen.’”可知，Facebook存在一些弊端。
