本文是一篇說(shuō)明文,感恩日記是讓我們保持積極心態(tài)的好方法,本篇文章提供了五點(diǎn)寫(xiě)作感恩日記的建議。

1根據(jù)橫線后一句This will make writing the journal more challenging as time goes on可知隨著時(shí)間的推延,人們會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)寫(xiě)日記變得越來(lái)越困難,要避免每天記錄同樣的事情,要記錄不同的事情,所以才會(huì)感覺(jué)困難。A項(xiàng)Avoid repeating the same things符合上下文語(yǔ)境,故選A項(xiàng)。

2根據(jù)橫線后兩句For example, if you love to paint, you may be grateful for the paint that you have. Or, if you like music, you may be grateful for your CD connections.”所列舉繪畫(huà)和音樂(lè)的例子可知要寫(xiě)一些你自己感興趣的事情。F項(xiàng)These things vary greatly depending on your interests.符合上下文語(yǔ)境,故選F項(xiàng)。

3根據(jù)本段第三句Avoid the trap of being grateful for something that is better than whatother people have. 可知我們要避免感激擁有比別人更好的事物,而是要感激自己所擁有的事物所以在寫(xiě)日記的時(shí)候可以描述此類(lèi)情感。B項(xiàng)Describe how you are grateful for what you have have.符合上下文語(yǔ)境,故選B項(xiàng)

4橫線前一句You may start with basic abilities like your abilities to see and hear.告訴我們要從一些基本的事情寫(xiě)起,然后再推進(jìn)到那些你獨(dú)有的事情。D項(xiàng)Then progress to those that are unique to you符合上下文語(yǔ)境,故選D項(xiàng)。

5根據(jù)橫線前三句可知我們不僅要寫(xiě)下自己喜歡的人或事,而且還要寫(xiě)自己不喜歡的人或事情,并找到他們的亮點(diǎn)這樣做雖然很難但卻能提高你的道德水平。C項(xiàng)This can be difficult but very uplifting.符合上下文語(yǔ)境,故選C項(xiàng)。

【題目】 Looking at Rosa Ferrigno's new suit, you could swear it was knitted() with regular yarn(毛線).It’s only when you touch it and hear the characteristic rustling(沙沙聲 )of plastic that you realize there's something special about it.In fact, the suit is made out of over 300 plastic grocery bags.

Ferrigno, who once worked as a tailor before starting a family, got the idea for her unique hand-made suit last August.She was at a family picnic and saw on of the other guests carrying a purse made from re-purposed plastic bags.It attracted her, so she and her daughter searched for instructions on how to make one on You Tube.The 75 -year-old ended up making a purse from colorful plastic bags.But that was only the beginning.After finishing her second plastic bag purse, Ferrigno realized she needed something to match it with, so last November she told her daughter she was going to make a skirt and jacket suit out of plastic bags, as a winter project.

Rosa started by cutting up the plastic bags into strips(A.)and then tying them together to make longer, yarn- like strips that could be knitted.But to knit the plastic yarn, she needed that didn't exist on the market so she made them on her own.

The suit took Rosa two months to complete.The jacket was made out of 170 plastic bags, and the skirt required another 140.Although she didn’t even use a pattern when knitting the impressive suit, it ended up fitting her perfectly, and when she finally showed it off at the supermarket earlier this month, everyone went crazy.

【題目】 Ladies, if you find yourselves wandering an unknown city with a man who is questioning your directional abilities, don’t doubt yourselves.

A recent small study published in the journal Psychological Science found that the longstanding theory that women have a more difficult time reading maps wasn’t true.

Historically, men have performed better than women in studies that tested their spatial(空間的)ability. But the leading study author Margaret Tarampi and a researcher from the University of California, Santa Barbara theorized that social influences had an effect on this outcome: The cultural belief that women are worse at reading maps could be seen as a stereotype(固有模式) threat, meaning women believe they’re bad at something, so they perform poorly as a result. The researchers also theorized that women performed better at skills that involve a social element. In other words, if reading a map means helping someone else, they might perform better.

Tarampi and her team tested both theories on undergraduate students at UCSB across three separate experiments. And, indeed, the results showed that men scored better than women only when they were mentioned the stereotype of male superiority before the test.

When the researchers did not mention it and gave a social context for reading the map, women’s scores improved across the board. Women also performed better when the test maps simply included human figures, rather than just random objects and landmarks.

So ladies, next time you struggle to figure out whether you should make a left or right at the Louvre, take out your tourist map with a healthy dose of confidence.

1What is the purpose of the first paragraph?

A.To warn women of one of their shortcomings.

B.To introduce the topic of the passage.

C.To encourage women to read maps.

D.To state a social phenomenon.

2Women are thought to be worse at reading maps because of .

A.a poor sense of directionB.a lack of experience

C.a social stereotypeD.threats from others

3Men performed better than women in the study when .

A.they were asked to help someone else by reading a map

B.they were informed of the stereotype before the test

C.the test maps simply included human figures

D.there were social elements in the map

4What can be concluded from the passage?

A.Women can read maps as well as men.B.Women are better drivers than men.

C.Women always have difficulty reading maps.D.Women are better at spatial ability.

【題目】 NASA said its Kepler spacecraft has spotted 'Earth's bigger, older cousin': the first nearly Earth-size planet to be found in the habitable zone of a star similar to our own.

Though NASA can’t say for sure whether the planet is rocky like ours or has water and air, it's the closest match yet found.

The planet, Kepler-452b, is about 60% bigger than Earth, NASA says, and is located in its star's habitable zone, where life-sustaining liquid water is possible on the surface of a planet.

A visitor there would experience gravity about twice that of Earth's, and scientists say the possibility of it having a rocky surface are 'better than ever'. While it's a bit farther from its star than Earth is from the sun, its star is brighter, so the planet receives about the same amount of energy from its star as Earth does from the sun.

Kepler researcher Jeff Jenkins said, 'The planet almost certainly has an atmosphere, although scientists can't say what it's made of. But if the assumptions are correct, kepler-452b's atmosphere may be thicker than Earth's. '

It takes 385 days for the planet to orbit its star. 'Because it has spent so long orbiting in this zone—6 billion years—it's had plenty of time to brew life,' Jenkins said.

'That's an opportunity for life to arise, if all the necessary ingredients and conditions for life exist on this planet, ' he said in a statement.

Kepler-452b is too far away for humans to visit. But the discovery of this new Earth-like planet can tell us a lot about what’s possible for the future of space travel. 'The next step in the process is to do follow-up missions to find planets similar to kepler-452b, but much closer to Earth, ' said Peter Coughlin, a Kepler research scientist. 'We could do a lot more research into those planets, and even start to think about visiting one day. '

1The researchers are sure that Kepler-452b ________

A.is larger than EarthB.has an atmosphere

C.has air and waterD.has many rocks

2What is the similarity between Kepler-452b and the Earth?

A.They are both located in the sun's habitable zone

B.Their distances from the sun are almost the same

C.Their atmospheres are made of the same compositions

D.They get almost the same amount of energy from their stars.

3The underlined word 'brew' in paragraph 6 most probably means ________.

A.improveB.endanger

C.produceD.protect

4What should be the best title for the text?

A.Kepler-452b Is Compared to the Earth.

B.NASA Discovers a New Earth-Like Planet.

C.A Spacecraft Was Launched to Find Super-Earth.

D.A New Planet With Life Is Discovered.
