For me, it is more than that.At the age of 16, I was offered my very first job as a shopgirl in a clothing store. On the first day, my manager was training me how to fold and organize platform after platform of clothes. The work seemed overwhelming, and everything had to be done in an accurate way. I got so impatient because I couldnခ t get it right the first couple of times. After about ten tries, I had the clothes fold-ed perfectly. Then it took me thirty minutes to get them all looking uniform. Now, I fold and orga-nize clothes every day, and Iခ m able to do them well. Through this experience, Iခ ve learned to be patient.Helping customers and establishing connections with them is one of the things I love most about my job. About two months ago, I helped a woman who was looking for a dress. She told me exact-ly what she was picturing—a blue dress with long sleeves and a lace neck. We didnခ t have any such dress, and when I explained that to her, she wasnခ t very happy. Instead of getting annoyed, I tried getting to know her a bit better and asked what the dress was for, so I could find other items in her size that could work. We shared our love of the Netflix fashion show, and she ended up buy-ing $200 worth of new clothes, having found other items she liked. This experience has taught me to be more open with strangers.

He would look up and smile when he saw me and pat the chair next to him for me to sit down. He loved to tell me about his lost golden years when he was an excellent baseball player. I was a good listener. After a couple of hours of talking, I would shake his hand and say goodbye to him. I hoped that I brought a little sunshine into Walterခ s life.I met Walter when I was a high school student participating in a volunteer program with elderly people in a nursing home. It was the first of many such activities, ranging from playing with dis-abled children to sitting with cancer patients in a hospital. These activities seemed to satisfy my desire to be useful and to feel a meaningful connection to the lives of others.My parents inculcated me with a belief that there was no greater human value than kindness, and encouraged me to make helping others and contributing to society important goals in life. Volun-teer work provided a way of attempting to realize the truth of these messages.I learned that volunteerism is not a one-way act of helping someone less fortunate. Involvement in the life of another person has enriched my life as well. Seeing how people deal with the challenges of their lives has taught me valuable lessons in courage and dignity. Many of the people whom I have met as a volunteer are an unforgettable part of my life. Perhaps I received far more than I ever gave.This is why volunteerism works—each of us has so much need for human connection and so much to give to others.1.What did the author do every time he visited Walter?

But my life was not always so great. I had a learning disability from an early age. I went to a special school where I got plenty of extra help. Still, I suffered the rest of my school days in public schools.My life improved remarkably when I discovered art. The art world gave me a chance to express myself without words.I went to a workshop and gradually got good at making things with clay(黏土).Here I learned my first important lesson:disabled as I was in language, I could still be smart and well express myself with clay. And my confidence came along.I got my next lesson from rock climbing. It was a fun thing but I was scared from the start. I soon noticed it wasnခ t a talent thing; it was practice. So I did it more. After about five years of climbing, I found myself in Yosemite Valley on a big wall. I learned that if you fall in love with something and do it all the time, you will get better at it.Later I decided to apply my previous experience to learning how to read and write. Every day I practiced reading and writing, which I used to avoid as much as possible. After two hard years, I was literate.

Half of all college students change their major at some point.By doing that hundreds of dollars are wasted on classes that they would have never needed to take.So use our extra periods to find out what we want to do in college.The classes we choose can impact us in the future.Taking optional subjects will enrich our mind.It will also show colleges we are diverse students.1.How should we use our extra periods in the authorခ s opinion?(No more than 9 words) 2.Why does the author think we should experiment in different fields of study?(No more than 17 words) 3.Why did the clay pot show the authorခ s lack of artistic ability?(No more than 10 words) 4.According to the author,how will taking optional subjects impact us in the future?(No more than 13 words) 答案答案[语篇解读] 本文是夹叙夹议的文章,题材为学校生活类。

At 16, Sheeran made the decision of a lifetime—to drop out of school and move to London to pursue his music career. He slept on friendsခ sofas to save money to record his songs and performed constantly for three years to earn a living.In 2011, the young singer released his song “Give Me Love”, which caused a rise in his popular-ity and brought him the attention of famous musicians.

That meant all of her jumps were practiced during competitions.The girls, who live in a homeless shelter with their mother, Tonia Handy, 46, were able to attend the games thanks to support from the girlsခ training team and a successful GoFundMe campaign. Handy, however, could not afford a plane ticket of her own to watch them compete in person. That was until Ken Smaltz Jr., a complete stranger, read about the family. He reached out to Handy and offered to buy her a ticket.“It just feels nice to help someone,” Smaltz said,who also didnခ t intend for the gesture to be made public.On August 1, Handy surprised Rainn by showing up on the track right before she was about to run the 3,000m race.Rainn was extremely excited. The mother and daughter hugged six times before they took each otherခ s hands and walked to the track together.Shortly after their sweet reunion, Rainn won the gold medal in the race.Although the familyခ s athletic accomplishments are grand, their needs are simple.“Do you have money to eat?” Rainn whispered in her momခ s ear after her race.“She knew I didnခ t have money,” Handy later explained. “For me to be out here is an impres-sive achievement on its own.” 1.What is the AAU Junior Olympic Games?

And I was one of the volun-teers. We went to Venice Beach to clean up the trash.At first glance, the beach didnခ t look dirty at all. But then I saw a Styrofoam cup half buried in the sand on the beach. I pulled hard and finally got it out. As we moved farther, we found pieces of Styrofoam spread all over the sand. The Heal the Bay representative had told us that these little pieces of Styrofoam and other small pieces of plastic are what actually harm sea life most. Sea an-imals eat the plastic. After eating it, they think they are full. As a result, they can die of starvation as they are cheated by their feeling and donခ t think they need to eat any food.We kept on picking up the trash. Then I saw someone with a full Heal the Bay trash bag and I went to see what was inside. When I opened the trash bag, I found everything from a pair of old jeans and a brown belt to headphones and some plastic bags. It made me very angry with the people who left their things behind without thinking about what effects they might have on the ocean.It is really important to protect the ocean. The ocean covers about 71 percent of the Earthခ s sur-face. A clean ocean not only helps animals in the ocean survive but also helps us survive. By noon, the sun was shining and the temperature was rising. The volunteers that had spread out across Venice Beach were coming back to throw the trash they had collected into the truck.

However, there is another side of New York City. The summer after tenth grade, I went with my group on a mis-sion trip to New York City for a week.I had always known that poverty existed in major cities, but I had never seen it to a degree as high as we did there. We worked at several different locations with our small groups. One day, we served at a soup kitchen and what I saw astounded me. I couldnခ t believe my eyes. We saw people from all walks of life. We met people who came there because they had no job, no home and no money.Another day, we volunteered at a homeless shelter. We helped people there do some cleaning and spent time talking to them and listening to their stories. It was incredible to see how thankful they were to us for just spending a couple of hours talking to them.Every person we met on that trip had a unique story. Whatever their stories were, there was a common thread we saw in them—hope and thanks. These were people who had nothing and yet they were so hopeful about their futures and they were thanking us. My experience during that summer changed my life. I used to picture my future as containing a big house and a lot of money, but now I see my future as helping others. After college, I would really like to work for some sort of global aid organization that deals with the social issues, such as poverty and homelessness.1.What do most people have in mind when thinking of New York City?(No more than 10 words) 2.What does the underlined word “astounded” in Paragraph 2 mean?

My biggest sports moment ever didnခ t re-quire me to be the fastest, the highest, or the strongest. It just required me to be in the right place at the right time, and catch the opportunity when it came to me. It was to carry our national flag for the Olympic Torch Relay.As a part of the celebration, flag bearers(旗手) were needed. I served in the army at that time and the Olympic organizers asked for volunteers to help carry some of the flags. Although it demanded that I give up part of my weekends and get up early, I thought that it was the chance of a lifetime.There were several different groups that took part in the event as flag bearers. We soldiers were go-ing to be out in front leading them. On the day of the event, we arrived early at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. Many people arrived to see the flame arrive from Greece, and the beginning of the Olympic Torch Relay. It was exciting to wait for our turn to enter the coliseum.As a flag bearer, I was supposed to run out in front. Though the flag was fairly heavy, I picked it up and ran with it. I ran past rows of people. I ran through television cameras. It was one of the most amazing experiences of my life, being able to carry our national flag in an international event like the Olympics. I was very proud of it. I had never been able to attend the Olympics, and I might never be important enough to carry an Olympic torch or anything like that, but I did get to carry our national flag in the torch relay, al-though I will no longer have the opportunity to carry the flag in the Olympics, and that would be one sports experience that would be difficult to forget.1.What was the author when the Olympics were hosted in Los Angeles?

He was severely lame and very short, and when we would walk together, his hand on my arm for balance, people would stare. I would feel ashamed at the unwanted attention. If he ever noticed or was bothered, he never let on;nor did he say anything about it.It was difficult to coordinate(协调) our steps—his pausing, my impatience—and because of that, we didnခ t say much as we went along. But as we started out, he always said, “You set the pace. I will try to adjust to you.”Our usual walk was to or from the subway, which was how he got to work. He went to work sick, and despite bad weather. He almost never missed a day, and would make it to the office even if others could not have a matter of pride.When snow or ice was on the ground, it was impossible for him to walk, even with help. At such times my sisters or I would pull him through the streets of Brooklyn, NY, on a childခ s sleigh to the subway entrance. Once there, he would grasp the handrail until he reached the lower steps where the warmer tunnel air kept ice-free. In Manhattan the subway station was the basement of his office building, and he would not have to go outside until we met him in Brooklyn on his way home. When I think of it now, I wondered at how much courage it must have taken for a grown man to subject himself to such indignity and stress. And I wondered at how he did it—without bitterness or complaint. He never talked about himself as an object of pity;nor did he show any envy of the more fortunate or able. What he looked for in others was a “good heart”, and if he found one, the owner was good enough for him.Now that I am older, I believe that is a proper standard by which to judge people, even though I still donခ t know precisely what a “good heart” is. But I know the times I donခ t have one myself.My father has been gone many years now, but I think of him often. I wonder if he sensed my un-willingness to be seen with him during our walks. If he did, I am sorry I never told him how sorry I was, how unworthy I was and how I regretted it. I think of him when I am envious of othersခ good fortune and when I donခ t have a “good heart”.At such times I put my hand on his arm to regain my balance, and say, “You set the pace. I will try to adjust to you.” 1.What wouldnခ t the author like others to see? (No more than 10 words) 2.Whatခ s the meaning of the underlined phrase “let on” in the first paragraph? (No more than 5 words) 3.According to the third paragraph, what conclusion can you get about the fatherခ s attitude toward his work?

But does Mother Nature agree? Animals canခ t talk, but can they lie in other ways? Can they lie with their bodies and behavior? Animal experts may not call it lying, but they do agree that many animals, from birds to chimpanzees, behave dishon-estly to fool other animals. Why? Dishonesty often helps them survive.Many kinds of birds are very successful in fooling other animals. For example, the plover some-times pretends to be hurt in order to protect its young. When a predator(猎食动物)gets close to its nest, the plover leads the predator away from the nest. How? It pretends to have a broken wing. The predator follows the “hurt” adult, leaving the baby birds safe in the nest.Another kind of bird, the scrub jay, buries its food so it always has something to eat. Scrub jays are also thieves. They watch where others bury their food and steal it. But clever scrub jays seem to know when a thief is watching them. So they go back later, unbury the food, and bury it again somewhere else. Cuckoos have found a way to have babies without doing much work. How? They donခ t make nests. Instead, they get into other birdsခ nests secretly. Then they lay their eggs and fly away. When the baby birds come out, their adoptive parents feed them.Chimpanzees, or chimps, can also be sneaky. After a fight, the losing chimp will give its hand to the other. When the winning chimp puts out its hand, too, the chimps are friendly again. But an an-imal expert once saw a losing chimp take the winnerခ s hand and start fighting again.Chimps are dishonest in other ways, too. When chimps find food that they love, such as bananas, it is natural for them to cry out. Then other chimps come running. But some clever chimps learn to cry very softly when they find food. That way, other chimps donခ t hear them, and they dont need to share their food.As children, many of us learn the saying “You cant fool Mother Nature.” But maybe you canခ t trust her, either. 1.According to the passage, why do many animals behave dishonestly to fool others? (no more than 10 words) 2.How does a plover deal with it when a predator approaches its nest? (no more than 15 words) 3.Who often feed cuckoosခ baby birds?

It can uncover laws of nature, cure diseases, make bombs, and help bridges to stand up.Indeed science is so good at what it does that thereခ s always a temptation (诱惑) to drag it into problems where it may not be helpful. David Brooks, author of The Social Ani-mal: The Hidden Sources of Love, Character, and Achievement, appears to be the latest in a long line of writers who have failed to resist the temptation.Brooks gained fame for several books. His latest book The Social Animal, however, is more ambi-tious and serious than his earlier books. It is an attempt to deal with a set of weighty topics. The book focuses on big questions:What has science revealed about human nature? What are the sources of character? And why are some people happy and successful while others arenခ t?To answer these questions, Brooks surveys a wide range of disciplines. Considering this, you might expect the book to be a dry recitation (逐一列举) of facts. But Brooks has structured his book in an unorthodox (非常规的), and perhaps unfortunate way. Instead of introducing scientific theories, he tells a story, within which he tries to make his points, perhaps in order to keep the readerခ s attention. So as Harold and Erica, the hero and heroine in his story, live through child-hood, we hear about the science of child development and as they begin to date we hear about the theory of sexual attraction. Brooks carries this through to the death of one of his characters.On the whole, Brooksခ story is acceptable if uninspired. As one would expect, his writing is most-ly clear and, to be fair, some chapters stand out above the rest. I enjoyed, for instance, the chapter in which Harold discovers how to think on his own. While Harold and Erica are certainly not strong or memorable characters, the more serious problems with The Social Animal lie elsewhere. These problems partly involve Brooksခ attempt to translate his tale into science.1.What is the main idea of Paragraph 2? (No more than 10 words) 2.Why does Brooks use a story to introduce scientific theories? (No more than 15 words) 3.According to The Social Animal, how can we learn about the science of child development? (No more than 10 words) 4.Please explain the underlined word “weighty” in English.

The assumption is that itခ s driven by a positive, external reward. Do this;get that. But the story is much more complex.One of the most striking aspects of motivation is that it often drives us to achievements that are dif-ficult, challenging and even painful. You may think that you would be happy to spend all your time sitting on a white-sand beach drinking and that as long as you get to fill your days this way, you would be happy forever. But while a few days of enjoyment might be fun from time to time, I cant imagine that you would be satisfied by spending your days, weeks, months, years and even your life this way.Research that examines the differences between meaning and happiness finds that the things that give us a sense of meaning donခ t necessarily make us happy. Moreover, people who report having meaningful lives are often more interested in doing things for others, while those who focus mostly on doing things for themselves report being only superficially happy, in other words, just external-ly and apparently delighted. The essential quality of “meaning” has to do with having a sense of being involved in something bigger than the self.We all know people obtain a great sense of meaning even in the most unpleasant circumstances. Many volunteers spend portions of their lives working in dangerous, war-torn areas, trying to keep disease and death from innocent civilians or teaching orphans to read. Their pain is real;their sense of doing something truly meaningful is substantial (丰富的).They show how our deep-rooted de-sire to believe that our lives have purpose beyond our lifespan drives us to work extra hard, even to the point of our own personal suffering, in order to gain more meaning.The point is that these seemingly unusual and irrational(不合理的)motivations get us to do things that are complex, difficult and unpleasant. But they go beyond helping people in need. They moti-vate us in every aspect of our lives—whether in our personal relationships, in our individual pur-suits or in the workplace.1.Whatခ s the main idea of the passage? (No more than 10 words) 2.Why is motivation so significant to our life? (No more than 15 words) 3.What is the meaning of the underlined word “superficially” in Paragraph 3?

She looked puzzled. Several people passed by, looked at her but did not stop. I wondered why. Maybe it was because of the way she was dressed. She wore a dirty dress and looked pale.As I crossed the street and came closer to her I asked if she wanted help. She thanked me and smiled in relief. As it turned out, she was looking for the hospital. I felt wonderful just reaching out, and taking that extra moment to help.Many times in these situations I end up walking a person to where he or she is going when giving directions would be too complicated. I like helping people this way due to my own experience. Many years ago, we travelled in Japan and needed directions. A kind Japanese who saw our prob-lem came to us and helped us out. This man just took my heavy bags and guided us to where we needed to be. We could not speak any Japanese while the man could not speak any English. Al-though we could not communicate through words, we communicated through the heart. Sometimes when I do a special favor for a stranger, the person will say, “I hope I can do some-thing for you one day to return the favor.” They already have done something for me by giving me the opportunity to help them. But I hope that when they come across a situation where someone needs their help, they will be willing to reach out as well.1.Why didnခ t those passers-by give a helping hand to the young lady?(No more than 10 words) 2.What was the young ladyခ s problem?(No more than 10 words) 3.What does the underlined sentence mean?(No more than 20 words) 4.What does the writer want to tell us in the last paragraph?(No more than 15 words) 5.Whatခ s your opinion on helping strangers?

They will, in a lifetime, push the chrome-plated contraptions many miles. But few will know—or even think to ask—who it was that invented them.Sylvan N. Goldman invented the shopping cart in 1937. At that time he was in the supermarket business. Every day he would see shoppers lugging(吃力地携带)groceries around in baskets they had to carry.One day Goldman suddenly had the idea of putting baskets on wheels. The wheeled baskets would make shopping much easier for his customers, and would help to attract more business.On June 4, 1937, Goldmanခ s first carts were ready for use in his market. He was terribly excited on the morning of that day as customers began arriving. He couldnခ t wait to see them using his in-vention.But Goldman was disappointed. Most shoppers gave the carts a long look, but hardly anybody would give them a try.历年高考试题汇编 After a while, Goldman decided to ask customers why they werent using his carts. “Donခ t you think this arm is strong enough to carry a shopping basket?” one shopper replied.But Goldman wasnခ t beaten yet. He knew his carts would be a great success if only he could per-suade people to give them a try. To this end, Goldman hired a group of people to push carts around his market and pretend they were shopping! Seeing this, the real customers gradually began copy-ing the phony(假冒的)customers.As Goldman had hoped, the carts were soon attracting larger and larger numbers of customers to his market. But not only did more people come—those who came bought more. With larger, easier-to-handle baskets, customers unconsciously bought a greater number of items than before.Todays shopping carts are five times larger than Goldmans original model. Perhaps thats one reason Americans today spend more than five times as much money on food each year as they did before 1937—before the coming of the shopping cart. 1.The underlined words “chrome-plated contraptions” in Paragraph 1 refer to .(No more than 3 words)2.What was the purpose of Goldmanခ s invention?

Through training,Shaw and Cuddles learned to find their way on busy streets,step over curbs(便道沿儿)and find elevator buttons.Cuddles even demonstrated(显示)its ability to step in front of Shaw and block him,to prevent him from walking into a dangerous situation.The little horse also expert-ly led Shaw through busy shopping malls.They got along without any difficulties.Now Shaw is confident that Cuddles will change his life for the better.1.Whatခ s the meaning of the underlined word“miniature”in Paragraph 1?(No more than 2 words) 2.Why didnခ t Shaw want to choose a dog as his guide?(No more than 15 words) 3.What does Paragraph 3 mainly tell us?(No more than 10 words) 4.How does Shaw feel about his future life with the help of Cuddles?(No more than 10 words) 5.In your opinion,what is the ideal relationship between man and animals?(No more than 20 words) 答案答案 [语篇解读] Dan Shaw 是一个盲人,由于他是动物爱好者,所以他没有申请导盲犬,因为狗通常只有八到十年的寿命,他从情感上不能接受。
