    The winter vacation during the senior year of high school can be a stressful time for students. 1. They may also be feeling sad that time with family and friends having a relaxation. Here are some wise ways to spend the last winter vacation of high school.

Start practicing responsibilities. After you enter college, you have to do a lot of things on your own. 2. Although some may just want to spend winter break sleeping and relaxing, it's the right time for you to begin taking on some household tasks. You should start doing laundry and more things on your own. In this way, you can learn to become responsible.

For students who haven’t decided on a major, the last winter vacation of high school can be an opportunity to explore their interests. Students are often told they'll have time to decide on a major once they get to college. However, the last winter break might be the freest time they'll have for a while. 3.

Besides a major, you also need to decide on a school. This is a great time to go on more campus visits. 4. Take another visit to ensure you're making the right choice. Sometimes, seeing the school in different seasons can help you decide if it is truly where you belong.

5. Some students agree they should take advantage of time at home with family and friends while they still can. But most students don't realize how important family is until they've moved away. As you get more into college life, you will probably not be returning home as often, so take this opportunity. Enjoy your friends and family, as it will all change once you enter college.

A. Enjoy quality time at home.

B. Don't visit a campus just once.

C. Spend more time with your friends.

D. Ask your parents what major you can study.

E. So find out what you really like to learn in college.

F. And you'll be independent and responsible for yourself.

G. They may be dealing with pressure to choose a school.

 

1.G 2.F 3.E 4.B 5.A 【解析】 这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了一些度过高中最后一个寒假的明智方法。 1.由第一段“The winter vacation during the senior year of high school can be a stressful time for students. ”可知,高中三年级的寒假,对学生来说是一个充满压力的时期。所以小题2要说明具体面临什么样的压力。故G选项“他们可能面临选择学校的压力”符合句意。故G选项切题。 2.由第二段“ After you enter college, you have to do a lot of things on your own. Although some may just want to spend winter break sleeping and relaxing, it's the right time for you to begin taking on some household tasks. You should start doing laundry and more things on your own. In this way, you can learn to become responsible.”可知,进入大学后,你必须自己做很多事情。虽然有些人只是想在寒假里睡觉放松一下,但现在正是你开始做家务的好时机。你应该开始自己洗衣服和做更多的事情。这样,你就能学会负责任。所以小题2在句中起到承上启下的作用。故F选项“你会变得独立,对自己负责”符合句意。故F选项切题。 3.由第三段“However, the last winter break might be the freest time they'll have for a while.”可知,然而,最后一次寒假可能是他们所拥有的最自由的一段时期。所以小题3与前一句构成因果关系。故E选项“所以弄清楚你在大学真正喜欢学的专业”符合句意。故E选项切题。 4.由第四段“Take another visit to ensure you're making the right choice. Sometimes, seeing the school in different seasons can help you decide if it is truly where you belong.”可知,再次参观以确保你做出正确的选择。有时候,在不同的季节参观学校可以帮助你决定它是否真正适合你。所以小题4要说明不要只是参观一次校园,然后接着说再次参观学校的重要性。故B选项“不要只参观一次校园”符合句意。故B选项切题。 5.由最后段“Some students agree they should take advantage of time at home with family and friends while they still can. But most students don't realize how important family is until they've moved away. As you get more into college life, you will probably not be returning home as often, so take this opportunity. Enjoy your friends and family, as it will all change once you enter college”可知,一些学生认为,他们应该趁现在还可以的时候,充分利用在家与家人和朋友呆在一起的时间。但是大多数学生直到离家了才意识到家庭的重要性。随着你进入大学生活,你可能不会经常回家,所以抓住这个机会。享受和你的朋友和家人待在一起的时光,因为一旦你进入大学,一切都会改变。所以本段主要在说明享受在家的美好时光,也就是小题5本段的标题所要表达的内容。故A选项“享受在家的美好时光”符合句意。A选项切题。

    Scientists can figure out a movie's emotional tone from the gasps(喘气) of its audience. These gases could point the way to a subtle(微妙的,精细的) form of human communication, a new study suggests.

"When you see a movie, you can hear the music and see the pictures. However, you don't realize here are chemical signals in the air. And they, too, could be affecting you, says Williams, who led the study. As an atmospheric chemist, he studies the chemical makeup of the air around us.

Williams started out measuring the air in a soccer stadium. He noticed that levels of carbon dioxide and other gases changed wildly whenever the crowd cheered. That got him wondering -- Could the gases people breathe out be influenced by emotions?

To find out, he went to the movies.

Williams and his coworkers measured air samples collected over six weeks in two movie theaters. Overall, 9,500 movie goers watched 16 films. They included a mix of comedy, romance, action and horror films. Among them were The Hunger Games, Catching Fire, Carrie, and Walking with Dinosaurs. The researchers gave scenes from the movies such labels as “suspense(悬疑)”, "laughter" and "crying". Then they looked for hundreds of chemicals in the air that showed up as people were watching particular movie scenes.

And certain scenes had distinct chemical "fingerprints". Scenes that had people laughing or on the edge of their seats were especially distinctive. During screenings of The Hunger Games, levels of carbon dioxide and isoprene got to the highest at two suspenseful moments. Because isoprene is related to muscle movement, the researchers think tense movie moments likely led to its spikes(尖峰). Williams and his colleagues think the increase in carbon dioxide was due to the viewers' increased pulse and breathing rates.

Scientists need more data to make stronger links between human emotions and what's in their breath. But Williams can see potential practical uses. Companies, for instance, could quickly measure the air during tests to see how people feel about new products. He pictures future studies recording other body variables(变数) as well. These might include heart rate and body temperature, for instance. "It's something to find out."

1.What was Williams's purpose of the research?

A. To know more about the makeup of the air.

B. To find out how the air changes in a crowded stadium.

C. To study how greatly the movies influence people's emotion.

D. To see whether people's emotion affects the air they breathe out.

2.What do we know about the experiment?

A. Each participant watched about 16 films.

B. The movies were a mixture of comedy and romance.

C. The film scenes were labeled with three main features.

D. The samples were taken in two theaters over six weeks.

3.In which situation are people most emotional?

A. Romantic moments. B. Exciting situations.

C. Suspenseful situations. D. Horrible moments.

4.What can we infer from the last paragraph?

A. Human emotions are strongly related to the chemicals humans breathe out.

B. People's temperature will be measured when they' re watching movies.

C. Williams thinks more measures should be taken for practical uses.

D. Companies will spend much money testing their new product.

    The streets of Stockholm may be cold and snowy during winter, but it is one of the world's hottest startup(创业) centers and a good choice for people with talent worldwide.

Once the snow melts(融化) in early spring, the city is among the greenest in the world. Two thirds of Stockholm is made up of either water or parks, and locals make it the first thing to enjoy these peaceful surroundings. Less than l% of Swedish employees work more than 50 hours per week.

The quality of life is important. New parents are given 480 days of leave to look after their babies, while childcare is heavily supported in various sides. Little wonder that Sweden was rated the best location in the world for family life. Adam Webb, 34, a British businessman and father-of-one, said, "Everything is set towards helping parents, from giving dads time off on almost full pay to free bus rides for anyone with a baby carriage."

Stockholm is also proud of what Vogue magazine recently ranked as Europe's coolest neighborhood. On the island of Sodermalm, just south of the city centre, independent record stores still make money, while plenty of cafes offer a taste for Scandinavia's love affairs with timeless style.

Many major international companies, including H&M and Ericsson, offer expats(外来者) accommodation for the first three months of their contracts(合同) in Stockholm. But other foreigners arriving in the city are left to battle with a unique property market and a shortage of apartments. More than a third of Swedes live in rented housing, half of which is owned by local governments or state rental companies. If you're lucky enough to get a firsthand contract for this kind of accommodation, it is yours for life. Expats are welcome to join the queue, but in Stockholm they will find around half a million locals in front of them and an average wait of nine years.

"Finding a place to live is the single biggest challenge when moving to Stockholm, but there is a lot going on to try and solve the problem," said Julika Lamberth from Stockholm Business Region, a state-funded company working to increase investment in the city.

1.Stockholm attracts international talent probably because of its       .

A. beautiful weather B. free apartments

C. working policies for employees D. widespread greenness in the city

2.Sweden is on the top of the world for its       .

A. tourism B. sports

C. family life D. record stores

3.What can be the best title of the passage?

A. Have More Babies? Go to Sweden!

B. The Best Neighborhood in Sweden

C. The Best City for Working Families

D. The Most Comfortable Apartments in Stockholm

    Growing up, I was an extremely reserved(腼腆的) boy. I didn't have many friends in primary and middle school and rarely opened up to anyone. I didn't even ask my teacher questions in class. I was scared of the world and the people around.

As a child, I was scared to do anything without my parents mainly because I was afraid that I would do it badly. I was getting good grades and was well-behaved, but I wasn't happy. It was my belief that I was, for some reason, unable to do the things the others kids could do. I felt inadequate.

While in my second semester of college, I ran into some information on the Internet about something called social anxiety. I didn't really know much of the disorder. Thus I began to read about some of the symptoms and realized that social anxiety was the thing that hurt me so much.

It is common knowledge that people with social anxiety experience nervousness in social situations. What a lot of people don't know is that one of the main causes of social anxiety is negative thinking. People having a negative idea of themselves often think that they are ugly or stupid.

I realized what I was truly afraid of: not being good enough. I was afraid that people would look at me and would not like what they saw; I was scared of rejection. To help deal with these problems, I began to practice meditation(沉思) and other mindfulness exercises. My mind slowly began to change.

I realized that everyone, from star athletes to noble prize winners, experiences fear in their lives. Whether people are afraid of heights, planes, spiders, or talking to girls, we all experience anxiety and fear. There is no reason for anyone to feel excluded(排除在外的) because something scares them. People with anxiety disorders might have "problems", but there is nothing wrong with them as people. They are just as humans as everyone else.

    Most of us feel very tired after working for eight hours a day, five days a week. When we get home, we watch at least one film because it's well-deserved and the only time we get to "relax" before going to sleep. Wake up and repeat. No wonder you feel tired. So how do you get out of this vicious circle? How do you restart your life?

1. YOUR MINDSET

"Oh man, another one of these self-improvement things. I hope I can do it, but I've tried these things before, and I just never stick to it."

This was something I used to say to myself every time I try to start something new for myself. There's a fear-driven side of your brain which tells you, "You can't do this."

What can you do? Well, the tip here is to talk to yourself like you're talking to a friend, or a coworker. So the next time you try something new, be kind to yourself like you would be kind to others. You are your own worst critic. But you can also be your firm defender.

2. YOUR DIET

If you are looking at what you eat for the reason to feel energized, then the general rules are:

1) Eat when you're hungry. Don't eat when you're not.

2) Be mindful when you eat. Chew at least 20 times. Let yourself taste and digest your food.

3) Don't do three things at once when you're eating. Your body wasn't made for that.

4) Preferably, eat "real" food. Eat what your great-grandmother would recognize as food.

Don't let your days pass by in a boring way. Start by re-examining these key habits in your life to build a body that can start doing things you want.

3. YOUR SLEEP

Without enough sleep, we're basically going through the day drunk. This means tiredness, difficulty to respond quickly and smartly to anything that comes up. The sleeping hours needed for an average adult ranges from 7 to 9 hours.

1.What does the underlined word "vicious" most probably mean?

A. Strange. B. Awful.

C. Friendly. D. Worthy.

2.When the author starts something new, he       .

A. often feels he can't stick to it B. puts everything else aside

C. always keeps on doing it D. believes he can complete it

3.What should one do if he thinks he can't do something new?

A. He should persuade himself to have a try.

B. He should defend himself from being hurt.

C. He should think about it and give it up.

D. He should force himself to do it.

4.What will most likely be discussed after the last paragraph?

A. Why is sleep important? B. How long should we sleep?

C. How can we sleep properly? D. Why do people dream when sleeping?
