(2019·安徽省五校聯(lián)盟第二次質(zhì)檢)We humans are addicted to sugar.That makes sense.All animals need sugar to live.It's the fuel that powers our cells.So it's not surprising that we're born to want the sweet stuff.
Sugar stores the sun's energy like a battery.After a meal,your body breaks down foods into their building blocks.It uses some sugar for energy right away.The rest get stored for the body to break down later.It's a myth that sugar makes you extremely excited,but having a sugary snack can give you a quick burst of energy.That's because the sugar in sweet foods is easy for your body to turn into fuel.When you eat other kinds of foods,like vegetables,it takes longer for your body to break the sugar down.
These days it's easy to find sweet snacks.Sodas,candy,cakes and even foods that seem healthy,such as yogurt,can be packed with sugar.Food makers add sugar,because they know that to humans,sweet makes everything taste better.Americans eat about 20 teaspoons of extra sugar every day.That's way more than what is good for us.
Eating too much sugar can cause more than a stomachache.It can make people overweight,decay the teeth and even cause diabetes.However,experts aren't worried about naturally sweet foods—the problem is added sugar.So go ahead and enjoy sweet apples or even sugar-rich carrots that are also full of vitamins and other good stuff.
Even cake is great once in a while,as long as you don't overdo it.After all,no one wants life to be dull.And your body needs its fuel!

C [細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段第一、二句“These days it's easy to find sweet snacks.Sodas,candy,cakes and even foods that seem healthy,such as yogurt,can be packed with sugar”可知,甜食隨處可見,即使是看起來健康的食品也會含有大量糖分,故人們會誤食很多含糖食品。]

(2019·江西省八所重點中學(xué)聯(lián)考)Devon Gallagher,a college graduate from Philadelphia,wants the world to know exactly where she's been during her worldwide vacation in a special way.
The traveler,who was born with a bone disease,had her right leg amputated(截肢) at the age of four.Although the amputation caused setbacks for Gallagher early on,she now sees it as nothing short of inspiration for living her best life.
To spread that message,Gallagher has taken to social media,where she shares photos of her travels across the globe,but instead of simply using a geo-tag,she writes her location across her artificial leg before taking a picture.
Now she has been taking pictures across the Continent,which show her cycling over the canal in Amsterdam relaxing on a wall overlooking the city of Barcelona,posing with a waffle in Brussels,taking spectacular pictures in Athens and enjoying a river cruise in Budapest,all with the well-known locations written on her artificial leg.
“I get a new leg every two years and I can choose the design on it.One day I had a sudden thought to get a chalkboard,” Gallagher said.“My mum and grandmother weren't too keen on the idea,but my friends thought it was great and told me to go for it,so I did.”
Gallagher said people often stare when she's writing on her leg,but once she shares the photos,she receives only positive feedback.“My leg hasn't stopped me from doing anything I've wanted to do,” she said.“I don't know if it's my determination to prove to myself that I can do it,but regardless,I've been able to keep up with my peers and lead a pretty great life.”
Gallagher shows us that you should never let anything stand in the way of your dreams.And if life gives you an artificial leg,make art.

A.She enjoys her traveling across the globe.
B.She suffers little from her leg amputation.
C.She looks on her misfortune as another form of blessing.
D.She has exactly fallen in love with posting photos online.

A.The Continent.
B.The pictures.
C.The leg.
D.The locations.
B [代詞指代題。根據(jù)第四段第一句中的“Now she has been taking pictures across the Continent,which show her cycling over the canal in Amsterdam”可知,現(xiàn)在,她正在歐洲大陸各地拍攝照片,照片中她騎著自行車穿過阿姆斯特丹的運河。分析該句結(jié)構(gòu)可知,該句為非限制性定語從句,先行詞為pictures,which指代先行詞,在從句中作主語,故B項正確。]

Ⅱ.閱讀七選五
(2019·大連市一模)In a study recently published in the journal Neuron,researchers found that super memorizers don't have unusually large brain regions that allow them to remember a lot of information.__1__.Here are a few of their favorite tricks that can help you to remember things in your everyday life.
To Remember: New words
Technique: Change routine
In a study,a group of students studied a list of words in two separate sessions. Some studied in a messy room and some in a neat space.One group of students spent both sessions in the same room,while the other split the sessions between the two environments.During a test,the students who studied in multiple places remembered much more.__2__.That includes the time of day,the music in the background,whether you sit or stand,etc.
To Remember: Your PIN
Technique: Count it out
You could use your birthday,or your phone number,but identity thieves have a way of figuring those numbers out.__3__.Write a four-word sentence,then count the number of letters in each word.For instance,“This is my PIN”=4223.
To Remember: Faces
Technique: Focus on noses
While some super memorizers specialize in associating names with faces,the memory palace technique doesn't work as well if the image of the face is changed in any way.Rather than focusing on eyes,as most people do,focus on the centre or to the left of a person's nose.__4__.
To Remember: Facts & figures
Technique: __5__
To learn and remember statistics,reviewing the material repeatedly over a longer time is far more effective than repeating it in a shorter one.If your exam is in a week,study today and then again in a day or two.If it's a month away,study today and then wait a week before your second session.
A.Value exams
B.Give yourself time
C.This allows you to take in their whole face
D.This brain structures are in fact the same as ours
E.Instead,try this tip from Dominic O'Brien,an eight-time World Memory Champion
F.The theory is that your brain links the words to the environment around you
G.Studies showed that varying other aspects of your environment can also help
【語篇解讀】 本文是一篇說明文,主要介紹了幾個有助于記憶的技巧。
1.D [根據(jù)上文中的“super memorizers don't have unusually large brain regions”可知,那些記憶達人并沒有非常大的腦區(qū)域,他們的大腦結(jié)構(gòu)實際上和我們的一樣,故選D項。]
2.G [承接上文“During a test,the students who studied in multiple places remembered much more”,并與空后一句“That includes the time of day,the music in the background,whether you sit or stand,etc”呼應(yīng)可知,其他環(huán)境變化的方面對記憶也是有幫助的,這與本段介紹的技巧Change routine吻合,故選G項。]
3.E [根據(jù)空前一句“You could use...figuring those numbers out”和空處下文的內(nèi)容可知,空處推薦了一種不同的方法,這與第一段中效仿記憶達人的有效記憶策略呼應(yīng),故選E項。]
4.C [根據(jù)本段的記憶主題Faces和空前一句“Rather than focusing on eyes...a person's nose”可知,通過集中注意力于一個人的鼻子可以讓你記住一個人的整個面孔,故選C項。]
5.B [根據(jù)該段第一句“To learn and remember statistics,reviewing the material repeatedly over a longer time is far more effective than repeating it in a shorter one”,并結(jié)合對本段的整體理解可推知,本段推薦的記憶技巧是給自己時間,故選B項。]

【語篇解讀】 本文主要討論了海灘污染的問題。
1.sunny [考查詞形轉(zhuǎn)換。修飾名詞一般用形容詞,故用形容詞sunny修飾其后的名詞weekends。]
2.buried [考查非謂語動詞。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知,bury和其邏輯主語cigarette butts 構(gòu)成動賓關(guān)系,故用其過去分詞形式作賓語補足語。]
3.tourists [考查詞形轉(zhuǎn)換。結(jié)合定語從句的關(guān)系詞who可知,此處的先行詞為表示人的名詞,且定語從句中的謂語動詞為復(fù)數(shù),故用名詞復(fù)數(shù)形式。]
4.where [考查定語從句。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知,空處引導(dǎo)定語從句,在從句中作地點狀語,修飾先行詞the place,故填where。]
5.but [考查連詞。根據(jù)語境可知,空處前后存在邏輯上的轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系,故用連詞but。]
6.for [考查介詞。此處考查固定詞組be to blame for sth.“對某事負有責(zé)任”,故用介詞for。]
7.ourselves [考查代詞。與句子主語we呼應(yīng),此處應(yīng)用反身代詞ourselves作動詞blame的賓語。]
8.to solve [考查非謂語動詞。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知,此處應(yīng)用動詞不定式,表目的。]
9.importantly [考查副詞。副詞一般修飾形容詞、副詞、動詞,甚至整個句子,在句子中作狀語。故用副詞importantly,修飾整個句子。]
10.a(chǎn)re damaged [考查動詞的時態(tài)和語態(tài)。分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)可知, damage和主語the beaches之間是被動關(guān)系,根據(jù)該句中的“need”可知,此處敘述一般的情況,故用一般現(xiàn)在時的被動語態(tài)。]

(2019·安徽省示范高中模擬)“Joe? Is that you?” The woman speaking to me at the baseball game looked a little familiar.“Marci?” I asked.“It is you!”she cried out,smiling broadly.“It's good to see you again!”
It was good to see Marci,too.Off and on during the past few decades,I've wondered about her.I almost tried to search for her a few years ago after talking to a friend who had indicated that the 1990s had been pretty rough for Marci.So meeting her at the baseball game was really a surprise.
We spent a few minutes talking about our lives—the good old,bad old days.Then Marci grew quiet for a moment.“You know,Joe,” she said,“I've always wanted to tell you how...how...sorry I am for the way I treated you.You must have been hurt both physically and mentally.”I was a little embarrassed.I turned and looked at her.“It's OK,” I said,“No big deal!” “But I was such a jerk,” she continued.Yes you were,I thought.“We were both pretty young,” I smiled,“I know,” she said.“It's just always bothered me,remembering how mean I was to you.And I've wanted to tell you that I'm sorry.” The expression on her face was warm and sincere.And there was something in her eyes—it looked a lot like relief.“OK,” I said.“Apology accepted!” Overcome by the sweetness of the moment,I reached an arm around her and gave her a quick hug.Just then,the crowd erupted with a huge cheer,and Marci and I both returned our attention to the game.By the time I looked over to where she had been,she was gone.But the warm,wonderful feeling of our brief exchange was still there,and continues to this day whenever I think about it.
It isn't enough to just say “I'm sorry” and “You're forgiven”.But when those words are truly felt and sincerely expressed,they can open the door to miracles of the heart.Forgiveness can bring peace to an injured soul—even years after the fact.Even at a baseball game.

1.What kind of life did Marci live during the late 20th century according to the passage?
A.Happy. B.Busy.

2.What does the underlined word “jerk” in the third paragraph mean?
A.A humorous person.
B.A cruel person.
C.A careless person.
D.An honest person.
B [詞義猜測題。根據(jù)畫線詞下文中的“It's just always bothered me,remembering how mean I was to you”可知,當(dāng)時她對“我”很刻薄,這件事一直困擾著她,再結(jié)合畫線詞所在句可知,她認為她是一個刻薄的人;據(jù)此可知,畫線詞與B項含義相近,故B項正確。]

A.Because her favorite team won the game.
B.Because she learned Joe was living a good life.
C.Because she made an apology to the author.
D.Because she found she was not mean any longer.

4.What might be the best title for the passage?
A.Excitement of a Baseball Game.
B.Mental Burden of a Woman.
C.Miracles of Forgiveness.
D.Relief of Finding a Friend.

(2019·貴陽市普通高中第一學(xué)期監(jiān)測)You try to keep your eyes wide open while watching a basketball match or a wonderful firework show in case you might miss something exciting in just the blink of an eye.But in fact,humans blink about 15 times per minute on average.Have you ever missed anything because you blinked? Probably not.Why is that?
According to a new study published in the journal Current Biology in September,our brain has the ability to skip the temporary darkness when we blink.It can keep visual information for a short period of time and then put it together to form an image without interruption.
In order to understand how this works,a group of scientists at the German Primate Center and the University Medical Center Gottingen in Germany conducted an experiment.In the study,the participants were asked to look at patterns on a screen whose direction could be interpreted in different ways,such as horizontally(水平地) or vertically(垂直地).When one pattern was about to disappear and the next one was about to come,the participants had to indicate the direction that the next pattern would appear.
The researchers found that when the directions of two patterns didn't match,the area in our brain which is responsible for visual memory was activated.This same area showed less activity when two patterns were in the same direction.
“The medial prefrontal cortex(額葉皮層) adjusts current visual information with previously obtained information,and thus enables us to perceive the world with more stability,even when we briefly close our eyes to blink,” Caspar Schwiedrzik explained in Science Daily.He is the first author of the study and also a scientist at the German Primate Center.

5.We don't miss anything when blinking because our brain can ________.
A.deal with the missing image
B.remember all that we see
C.imagine what our eyes miss
D.put our pieces of memory together
A [推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段第一句“According to a new study published in the journal Current Biology in September,our brain has the ability to skip the temporary darkness when we blink.”可知,根據(jù)九月份發(fā)表在《當(dāng)代生物學(xué)》雜志上的一項新研究,我們的大腦有能力跳過我們眨眼時形成的暫時黑暗。據(jù)此可推知,由于我們的大腦能處理丟失的圖像,所以眨眼不會讓我們錯過任何東西,故A項正確。]
6.What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A.Our brain.
B.Visual information.
C.Current Biology.
D.The temporary darkness.
B [代詞指代題。根據(jù)第二段第二句“It can keep visual information for a short period of time and then put it together to form an image without interruption”可知,大腦可以在短時間內(nèi)保存視覺信息,然后將其組合在一起形成不中斷的圖像,故可推知,it指代上文中的“visual information”,故B項正確。]
7.What do we know about the experiment?
A.The two patterns appear at the same time.
B.Visual memory can be more activated by similarity.
C.Participants can interpret patterns differently.
D.The different directions activated visual memory.
D [細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段中的“when the directions of two patterns didn't match,the area in our brain which is responsible for visual memory was activated.This same area showed less activity when two patterns were in the same direction”可知,當(dāng)兩個模式的方向不一致時,則掌握視覺記憶的大腦區(qū)域被激活;當(dāng)兩種模式在同一方向時,則這個區(qū)域顯示出較少的活動。據(jù)此可知,不同的方向能激活視覺記憶,故D項正確。]
8.What would be the best title for this passage?
A.The Brain's Structure
B.The Brain's Activated Patterns
C.The Brain's Special Skill
D.The Brain's Orientation
C [標(biāo)題歸納題。通讀全文可知,一項科學(xué)研究發(fā)現(xiàn):眨眼不會錯過細節(jié),即大腦有能力在短時間內(nèi)保存視覺信息,然后將其組合在一起形成不中斷的圖像信息。故C項最適合作本文的標(biāo)題。]
