【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容,從短文后的選項中選出能填入空白處的最佳選項。
It is important to introduce yourself in a creative, memorable way to distinguish yourself from the crowd. Since being witty(言辭詼諧的) doesn't always come easily, try one of these creative introductions and separate yourself from the rest.
Write your first or last name on a piece of paper. So if your name is Tom, you might say you are tireless, optimistic and mild.
Then say that you will do so in the words of your“best and worst critic”— your mother. By breaking the ice in this way, you can go on in either a humorous or serious fashion.
Introduce yourself silently, by drawing a picture of yourself on a large sheet of paper. In fact, in some situations, it may be better if you don't. Put a title at the top of your drawing, if you like, such as “Hello! This is me.”
Turn the traditional introduction upside down by describing yourself in exactly opposite terms of who you are. Have fun with this“back door approach”, and keep people guessing just how much you are exaggerating(夸張). Don't bother calling me tomorrow, because I will be hiding in a closet. Send text messages to my girlfriend while I drink a Bud Light on the job.
A. This introduction requires you to be gifted in art.
B. Freely admit that you don't like talking about yourself.
C. It doesn't matter whether you have artistic abilities or not.
D. For example: I am probaby the laziest person you will ever meet.
E. Use each letter as the first letter in an adjective that describes you.
F. Bring in the surprise factor— sometimes known as the shock factor.
G. After all, anybody can stand up and announce their name, business title and job responsibilities.

【答案】G;E;B;C;D
【解析】如何在人前介紹好自己,讓別人能更好的記住自己或給別人留下深刻的印象?作者就這一問題提出了一些建議。

①G根據(jù)前一句It is important to introduce yourself in a creative, memorable way to distinguish yourself from the crowd.可知用創(chuàng)造性且容易記住的方式把你和他人區(qū)別開來是很重要的,后面接著就是原因了,畢竟,每一個人都可以站起來介紹自己,故選項G符合上下文意思。

②E根據(jù)后一句So if your name is Tom, you might say you are tireless, optimistic and mild.可知是舉例說明,E項中用你名字的第一個字母開頭的形容詞來介紹你自己,故正好配上后文的例子,所以答案是E。

③B根據(jù)后文的then以及后面一句話say that you will do so in the words of your“best and worst critic”— your mother.可知B項的意思承認你不喜歡你自己,正好能銜接起來,所以答案是B。

④C根據(jù)前一句drawing a picture of yourself on a large sheet of paper.可知,畫自畫像,和C項中的artist對應起來,所以答案是C。

⑤D根據(jù)前一句keep people guessing just how much you are exaggerating(夸張).可知用夸張的表達,然后后文緊接著就舉例,D項中的例子正好對應上夸張這一說法。故選D。

【題目】根據(jù)短文理解,選擇正確答案。
In 1905, as part of his Special Theory of Relativity, Albert Einstein published the point that a large amount of energy could be released from a small amount of matter. This was expressed by equation E = me 2(energy = mass times the speed of light squared). But bombs were not what Einstein had in mind when he published this equation.
In 1929, he publicly declared that if a war broke out he would “refused to do war service, direct or indirect…” His position would change in 1933, as the result of Adolf Hitler's coming into power in Germany.
Einstein's greatest role in the invention of the atomic bomb was signing a letter to President Franklin Roosevelt urging that the bomb be built because some physicists feared that Germany might be working on an atomic bomb. Among those concerned were physicists Leo Szilard and Eugene Wigner. But Szilard and Wigner had no influence with those in power. So in July 1939 they explained the problem to someone who did: Albert Einstein. After talking with Einstein, in August 1939 Szilard wrote a letter to President Roosevelt with Einstein's signature on it, which was delivered to Roosevelt in October 1939.
Germany has invaded Poland the previous month; the time was ripe for action. That October research of a-bomb began but proceeded slowly because the invention of the atomic bomb seemed distant and unlikely. In April 1940 an Einstein letter, ghost-written by Szilard, pressed the researchers on the need for “greater speed”.
As the realization of nuclear weapons grew near, Einstein looked beyond the current war to future problems that such weapons could bring. He wrote to his friend about his fear about the future use of the a-bomb.
The atomic bombings of Japan occurred three months after Germany gave in.
In November 1954, five months before his death, Einstein summarized his feelings about his role in the creation of the atomic bomb: “I made one great mistake in my life… when I signed a letter to President Roosevelt recommending that atom bombs be made; but there was some justification---- the danger that the Germans would make them”.
(1)What can we learn about Szilard and Wigner?
A.They were not as influential as Einstein.
B.They were responsible for the invention of nuclear weapons
C.They had cheated their friend Albert Einstein.
D.They had an intention to destroy the world.
(2)We can conclude that Einstein ___________.
A.was important in the development of atomic bomb
B.was not involved in the invention of atomic bomb
C.directly participated in the invention of the atomic bomb
D.helped with the invention of atomic bomb
(3)The best title for the passage would be __________.
A.A Story of Albert Einstein
B.Albert Einstein and the Atomic Bomb
C.It was Unfair for Einstein
D.How the Atomic Bomb was Invented

Evaluating Sources (來源) of health Information
Making good choices about your own health requires reasonable evaluation. A key first step in bettering your evaluation ability is to look carefully at your sources of healthy information. Reasonable evaluation includes knowing where and how to fins relevant information, how to separate fact from opinions, how to recognize poor reasoning, and how to analyze information and the reliability of sources.
Go to the original source. Media reports often simplify the results of medical research. Find out for yourself what a study really reported, and determine whether it was based on good science. Think about the type of study.
Watch for misleading language. Some studies will find that a behaviour “contributes to” or is“ associated with” an outcome; this does not mean that a certain course must lead to a certain result. Carefully read or listen to information in order to fully understand it.
Use your common sense. If a report seems too good to be true, probably it is. Be especially careful of information contained in advertisements. Evaluate “scientific” statements carefully, and be aware of quackery(江湖騙術).
Friends and family members can be a great source of ideas and inspiration, but each of us needs to find a healthy lifestyle that works for us.
Developing the ability to evaluate reasonably and independently about the health problems will serve you well throughout your life.
A. Make choices that are right for you.
B. The goal of an ad is to sell you something.
C. Be sure to work through the critical questions.
D. And examine the findings of the original research.
E. Distinguish between research reports and public health advice.
F. Be aware that information may also be incorrectly explained by an author's point of view.
G. The following suggestions can help you sort through the health information you receive from common sources.

【題目】4 Important Reasons to Raise Your Children Around Animals

Additionally, animals are empathetic and compassionate themselves. Through their own love and caring, they teach their own lessons to our children.2

As children grow up with an animal, they learn to be more responsible. 3 They can help feed the fish or walk the family dog.

3. 4

A recently published article shows that children can improve their reading skills while reading to the family pet. This might be because animals are such patient and kind creatures that help lower stress.

4. Give unbeatable comfort during hard times

Life is not always easy. 5 When there is a family pet, that pet is always there for the family to offer comfort. That pet keeps his company when your child feels lonely. Sometimes it is that silent hug and constant companionship that make children feel alright again with the stresses that come into their lives.

A. Pets increase reading success

B. Sometimes bad things happen.

C. Some people are cruel to animals.

D. Animals are great friends to people of all ages.

E. This way children will learn to respect animals.

【題目】根據(jù)短文內(nèi)容的理解,選擇正確答案。 When people introduce themselves, I always hear them say "I'm just a housewife". I don't understand why their introduction is always filled with regret and self-pity. Is it, really a crime to be a housewife? Is it really embarrassing when you choose not to work outside and instead choose to work in your home?
How could you be "just a housewife" when the basic social unit of society depends on you and your service? A housewife works for the longest hour, supporting your husband, child studies, caring for elders, managing finances, paying bills, grocery shopping, cooking according to individual taste, cleaning, etc. A housewife could be anyone: daughter, wife, mother, teacher, financial advisor, fashion designer and nurse, gardener, driver, cook, and so on. Don't think you are not being paid for it. You get the reward that no money can offer—the love and affection of your family, their trust for you, a happy home and your own satisfaction.
It is you who choose to be in this occupation, willingly or for any other reason. After a busy day, all wait to return to the comfortable home set by you. They know you will be there to absorb all their stress and tiredness and relax them. Would the life have been the same had you been working outside to earn some money? Would you along with your family have been able to buy all the content in life that you are enjoying now with that money?
Respect yourself for what you are. Introduce yourself to the world with the same dignity. The world understands the importance of your job; it's time to make them accept it. Introduce yourself with pride and with twinkle in your eyes "I am a housewife". Kick that "just" out..
