Directions：Read the following passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.

(A)

The day of my holiday arrived, but I wasn’t looking forward to it. I had little money and had only been able to afford to stay with my Aunt Rosa in Spain. So, I wasn’t really excited as I knew exactly what it was going to be like: lots of noisy cousins , and Aunt Rosa begging me to take her for a ride.

After I had checked in, I made my way slowly to the departure gate. As I was waiting to board the plane, I kept thinking about my ideal holiday destination: Jamaica, with its long, sandy beaches and crystal clear water.

As soon as the plane took off, I fell fast asleep and only woke to the sound of the announcement: “Ladies and gentlemen, please fasten you seat belts, as we will shortly be landing in Kingston.” I froze in my seat. Was I dreaming? Kingston? Jamaica? I had boarded the wrong plane!

Immediately after the plane landed, I explained the situation to the authorities. It seems there

were also three other passengers heading for Spain. Apparently it had been the airline’s fault, since the flight numbers for Spain and Jamaica were exactly the same! Therefore, with no flight back to London for a week, the airline had no choice but to pay for our stay.

So there I was, lying on the beach, enjoying the music and the marvelous food of Jamaica! As for Aunt Rosa, I suppose she just had to live without me!

38. Why did the writer choose to spend her holiday with her aunt in Spain?

A. She missed her cousins very much.

B. Her aunt begged her to go there.

C. She could hardly afford any better trip.

D. Spain was her ideal destination.

39. In the story, the writer ended up _________.

A. flying to London immediately

B. heading for Spain from Jamaica

C. complaining to the authorities D .enjoying a free beach holiday

40. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?

A. A Lucky Mistake

B. A Terrible Adventure

C. A Nice Dream

D. A Well-Planned Trip

(B)

With the cost of college rising in the U.S., some students are washing their hands of the American education system, grabbing their passports, and seeking cheaper degrees abroad. The number of students doing so has increased 2 percent annually in recent years, according to the Department of Education.

In 2009, Jessica Fuller, then 25, was employed at a small private university in Philadelphia as a clerk in an office. Bored with her job and becoming increasingly interested in healthcare industry, Fuller knew she would need a master’s degree in public health for her dream career.

At first, Fuller wanted a school in New York and Pennsylvania, but with many programs costing over $30,000 per year for tuition alone, she decided on an option she could better afford ---- the Netherlands. A similar degree in health economics cost less than $ 17,000 for a one-year program.

To finance her education at Erasmus University in Rotterdam, Fuller took out a $30,000 bank loan through her mother’s credit, which covered tuition and fees, as well as air travel and living expenses for her year abroad.

The cost may be lower, but is the quality of education overseas just as good as an American university? Jessica Fuller says in her case, yes: she found a consulting job with Marsh Inc. as an International Knowledge Manager shortly after she graduated from Erasmus University, and says that the university ---and its location---- were definitely a factor.

“Many Erasmus professors were world famous experts in their fields,”says Fuller. “Considering the variety of the students, the class discussions were very robust. Having an “international” advantage made a huge difference.”

41. Why did Jessica Fuller want to study for a master’s degree?

A. She could afford tuition at Erasmus University.

B. Her job required more professional skills.

C. She was bored with healthcare industry.

D. Her interest was in public health.

42. Jessica was able to go to Erasmus University by ______.

A. using her own credit card

B. having a part-time job

C. getting a scholarship from the university

D. obtaining a loan from a bank

43. The word “robust” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to “_________”.

A. awkward and fruitless

B. strong and vigorous

C. peaceful and pleasant

D. brief and informal

44. Jessica’s case shows that there is a tendency among U.S. students to ______.

A. choose t study overseas

B. look for jobs abroad

C. seek education of higher quality

D. take one-year program

( C )

A lot of people today are used to working, going on holiday, and having money---but many of them aren’t happy. Yet other people seem to be really happy , even if they are poor. Why?

Professor Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, from the University of Chicago, has interviewed thousands of people who have a happy life to find out how they do it. “I’ve been studying happiness for over 30 years,” he says. “My interest in the subject came from my own experience as a child during World War II , when I saw many adults destroyed by the terrible events. But there were always a few who kept their courage, helped others, and were able to give a sense of purpose and meaning to their lives. I wanted to find out how a person could build a fulfilling and enjoyable life.”

In general, his research showed that people were unhappy doing nothing. The professor stresses that happy people didn’t waste time, either at work or when they are free. “Many people feel that the time they spend at work or at school is wasted. But often their free time is also wasted. Many people are used to doing passive things----watching television, for example----without using any skills. As a result, life goes past in a series of boring experiences.”

But it doesn’t have to be this way. The professor has found that people are happy when get into something he calls “flow”. When people get very involved in a task that they have chosen, and which is well-defined and challenging , they experience “flow”, a state where they don’t notice time passing.

They also experience enjoyment. Professor Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, makes a contrast between enjoyment and pleasure. “I used to think they were the same thing---- but they’re not! Pleasure is a big bowl of ice cream, or taking a hot bath on a cold day ---nothing bad at all! But enjoyment is about doing something and achieving something. It isn’t really important what we do, it’s more important to do something, and feel positive about it, and to try to do it well.”

People who are not used to happiness can learn how to be happy, says the professor, if they constantly get into “flow” states. Is happiness as easy as that? Perhaps it is.

45. What did the professor want to find out through his research?

A. The difference between enjoyment and pleasure.

B. The secret of having a fulfilling and pleasant life.

C. The real meaning and purpose of life.

D. The way of passing the time enjoyably..

46. When a person is in a “flow” state, he/she ______.

A. is guilty about wasting time

B. feels stressed doing challenging jobs

C. easily forgets what time it is

D. has a strong desire to finish a boring task

47. In which situation can people experience enjoyment according to the professor?

A. When having afternoon tea.

B. When taking a hot bath in winter.

C. When watching a soap drama.

D. When making a DIY gift for a friend.

48. What can we learn from the passage?

A. Pleasures add a sense of purpose and meaning to lives.

B. Happiness results from engaging in meaningful tasks.

C. Happy people often relax themselves by doing nothing.

D. Happiness has much to do with living conditions.

上海市七宝中学2016届高三考前模拟英语试题(一) Word版含答案

2016高三英语模拟考试 II. Grammar and Vocabulary Section A Directions:After reading the passages below, fill in the blanks to make the passages coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. (A) Once just a science fiction idea, VR has now become more accessible than ever. (25) _________ (wear) a pair of VR goggles connected to your computer and you can experience a lot of things without stepping out of the room. From climbing (26) _________ (high) mountain in the world to flying a spacecraft, the things you can experience with VR are limitless. This new 'reality ' is starting to takeover China. The Report on Chinese VR Users' Behavior was released on March 18 during the 12th TFC Global Mobile Game Conference & Intelligent Entertainment Expo held in Beijing. The report is based on a survey of 5,626 people, (27) _________ (age) between 15 and 39, from across the country. It shows that up to 68.5 percent of people have heard of or are interested in VR products. But surprisingly, it isn't new technology that has made VR so popular. 'VR has been (28) _________ for many years, but it will stick this time because there's enough computer power and the price will just keep going down,' Todd Richmond, a VR group member with the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers in the US, told USA Today. VR (29) _________ (expect) to change various different fields. For example, VR could be used to train pilots and miners before they had to actually risk their lives in highly dangerous working environments, or to treat patients with acrophobia(恐高症）by making them think they were standing on top of a high building. 'If you have perfect virtual reality, (30) _________ you'll be able to simulate everything that a human can experience or imagine experiencing,it's hard to imagine where you go from there,' Palmer Luckey, 23 inventor of the Oculus VR goggles, told NPR. But the technology is still far from perfect. Users report experiencing motion sickness, headaches and other discomfort while wearing VR goggles. Also, (31) _________ more and more tools are flooding the market, the software that runs VR games and simulators has yet to catch up with all the new advancements. It could take (32) _________ while for VR to be widely accepted. When every new technology is first introduced, the technology (33) _________ is the driving force. But for it to really blend into people's lives, meeting basic and practical needs should be the main aim. (B) It has become the talk of the town: A stranger allegedly attacked a woman in a Beijing hotel at night on April 3. The man is said to have clutched her by the neck and attempted to drag her into the elevator. Lodgers passed by, but no one tried to intervene until one woman did. Her actions are believed to (34) _________ (save) the victim from whatever was going to happen to her. The incident has pushed the risks of solo traveling into the spotlight. Online forums like Sina Weibo (35) _________ (flood) with advice for how women (36) _________ protect themselves

2019届上海市各高中名校高三英语题型分类专题汇编--阅读理解B篇--老师版(带答案已校对珍藏版)

III. Reading Comprehension Section B Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. B Kettlebells do not hurt people. People do. A kettlebell will get your respect – the easy way or the hard way. Here is the easy way. 1. Get a medical clearance. Get clearance, especially from an orthopedist and a cardiologist. The latter is no joking matter, since kettlebell training can be extremely intense. 2. Always be aware of your surroundings. Find a training area with a non-slippery surface on which you are not afraid to drop a kettlebell. The area must be clear of objects you might trip over – including other kettlebells – or that you might hit with a kettlebell. There should be no people or animals in a radius where you could injure them. 3. Train barefoot or wear shoes with a flat, thin sole and room for the toes to spread. Training barefoot is superior for health and performance reasons. If you must wear shoes, wear Converse Chuck Taylors, Vibram Five Fingers, or similar shoes that have thin soles and do not pinch the toes together. You have sensory receptors on the bottoms of your feet that make you stronger and improve balance and coordination. Wearing traditional shoes diminishes the ability of these receptors to work properly, and therefore inhibits performance and can increase the risk of injury. Go native. 4.

And “running a family household requires high-level planning and coordinating（协调）,” she says. “You (29) _______ ________organize the activities of the children and take care of the bills and groceries.” Of course, our brains can decline as we grow older for lots of reasons — including other environmental influences or genetic factors.
