Dear Sara,
As we drove off from Columbia,I wanted to write a letter to you to tell you all that is on my mind.First,I want to tell you how proud we are.Getting into Columbia College shows what a great well-rounded student you are.Your academic,artistic,and social skills have truly blossomed in the last few years.Whether it is getting the highest grade in mathematics,completing your elegant fashion design,successfully selling your painted running shoes,or becoming one of the top speakers in Model United Nations,you have become a talented and accomplished young woman.You should be as proud of yourself as we are.
College will be the most important years in your life.It is in college that you will truly discover what learning is about.This will be the period where you go from teacher-taught to master-inspired,after which you must become self-learner.So do take each subject seriously,and even if what you learn isn’t critical for your life,the skills of learning will be important to you forever.
Follow your passion in college.Take courses you think you will enjoy.Don’t be trapped in what others think or say.Do your best in classes,but don’t let pressure get to you.Your mother and I have no expectations for your grades.If you graduate and learn something in your four years,we would feel happy.So please don’t give yourself pressure.
I told your mom I’m writing this letter,and asked what she wanted me to say.She thought and said:“Just ask her to take care of herself.”Please listen to your mother and take care of yourself.
So please treasure your college years,make the best of your free time,and become an independent thinker;learn and grow through your successes and challenges.
Love,
Dad(& Mom)

Christmas in the United States is traditionally a time of gift-giving and family gatherings.But small towns across the country have their own traditions.
Middleburg,a small town in the state of Virginia,is known for its horses.For more than 50 years,Middleburg has organized a yearly Christmas parade(游行).Men and women ride horses through the woods and fields.They follow hunting dogs as they search for a wild fox.But first,these hunters ride in the yearly parade,wearing their bright red hunting clothes and hats.
John Hale,a citizen of Middleburg says many city people visit his town.“We have a lot of people from an urban area that come to visit,but it incorporates a lot of the o1d traditions.” The nighttime hay ride is one such tradition.Small groups gather under the moonlight on an open wagon filled with hay.The passengers sing as farm horses pull the wagon slowly across the fields.
There are some newer traditions,too.Trey Matheu works at the nearby Salamander Resort.He says a visit to Middleburg is a chance to slow down for a day.He says Middleburg can be a calming,peaceful place without tension.
“Middleburg is an opportunity to take a step back,to take a deep breath,and understand that even though life is moving on at a very fast pace,there’s really an opportunity where you’re allowed to step off for a little bit.”
Parade organizers say more than 13,000 people attend even in below-freezing weather. But if you ask,you will hear many different reasons why people come to watch the parade:
“I come here because I’m from a small town. I like how everybody comes together.”“I live right down that street;right there.And that’s my dog.”
Middleburg looks its best at Christmastime.That may be why so many people return each year.

If you think that running marathons will help you live a long and healthy life,new research may come as a shock.According to a recent scientific study,people who do a very strenuous workout are as likely to die as people who do no exercise at all.
Scientists in Denmark have been studying over 1,000 joggers and non-joggers for 12 years.The death rates from the sample group indicate that people who jog at a moderate pace two or three times a week for less than two and a half hours in total are least likely to die.The best speed to jog at was found to be about 5 miles per hour.The research suggests that people who jog more than three times a week or at higher speeds of over 7 mph die at the same rate as non-joggers.The scientists think that this is because strenuous exercise causes structural changes to the heart and arteries(动脉).Over time,this can cause serious injuries.
Peter Schnohr,a researcher in Copenhagen,said,“If your goal is to decrease risk of death and improve life expectancy,jogging a few times a week at a moderate pace is a good strategy.Anything more is not just unnecessary,and it may be harmful.”
The implications of this are that moderate forms of exercise such as tai chi,yoga and brisk walking may be better for us than“iron man”events,triathlons and long-distance running and cycling.According to Jacob Louis Marott,another researcher involved in the study,“You don’t actually have to do that much to have a good impact on your health.And perhaps you shouldn’t actually do too much”.
32.The underlined word“strenuous”in Paragraph l is closest in meaning to“___________”.
A.hard B.regular
C.practical D.flexible
33.The author presents some figures in Paragraph 2 to ___________.
A.suggest giving up jogging
B.show risks of doing sports
C.provide supportive evidence
D.introduce the research process
34.According to the scientists,why is too much exercise harmful?
A.It may injure the heart and arteries.
B.It can make the body tired out.
C.It will bring much pressure.
D.It consumes too much energy.
35.What can be inferred from the text?
A.No exercise at all is the best choice.
B.More exercise means a healthier life.
C.Marathons runners are least likely to die.
D.Proper exercise contributes to good health.

You think you know your dog. 36 She probably recognizes you when she sees you.But can a dog tell by simply looking at you whether you have a happy or an angry expression on your face?Researchers in Austria have taught pet dogs to know the difference.
37 When dog owners shout or speak in a strong,sharp voice,dogs often act guilty and quietly move away from the area.
Recently,researchers found that dogs can look at our faces,and tell the difference between a smile and a frown.The animals were able to recognize a look of approval from one of disapproval.Researchers at the University of Veterinary Medicine performed a series of experiments. 38 They showed the dogs two pictures of either the upper or lower half of a person’s face.On one picture,the person looked happy.The other appeared angry.The dogs were then shown images of the eyes or mouths of people they had never seen before.
39 Once the dogs learned to recognize which image was happy or angry,they could easily identify the same expressions in pictures of any face.Future studies will try to show whether dogs can learn the meaning of facial expressions. 40
The researchers’findings were published in the journal Current Biology.They provide the first solid evidence that humans are not the only species that can read the body language of another species.
A.Dogs are very aware of sound.
B.Dogs have feelings just as you do.
C.But how well does your dog know you?
D.They were also shown the left half of the faces used in training.
E.Some dogs are very unhappy when they are left alone for a long time.
F.They taught dogs to recognize facial expressions.
G.For example,whether a frown shows that someone is angry.

高三英语阅读理解一模试题 2
I have been teaching the tenthgrade English for four years.Needless to say, I love my subject and promise to one day pass my love of literature on to my future students.Well, I must admit, I have made more than a difference.I have changed the way students perceive (感知) literature and have even inspired some to become English teachers. One student in particular is named John.I met him last year when he was a student in my English class.He sat in the back often, saying very little.However, I sensed that he was taking in all that I taught.John was never absent nor was he late.He seemed very mature for his age. As the year progressed, we read lots of poetry and various stories
about different cultures and reallife experiences.I have always wanted literature to speak to my students so that they could find related connections which would finally give them that motivation(动力) to read, write and interpret.While reading and writing poetry, John wrote some beautiful poetry that spoke of his experiences in America. On the last day of school, students were asked to write a brief autobiographical essay and to dedicate (献给) it to someone he or she thought was significant in his or her life.John dedicated his essay to me and used clip art that decorated the dedication with roses. He stated in the essay that “Some people you meet in life are flowers, but then there are those who are roses.Ms Hopkins, I just want you to know that you are a rose in my life and I have enjoyed every minute of being in your class.You have shown me that I have a purpose in life and that I am a poet.I will never forget you.” Tears streamed down my eyes.I had had a particularly hard personal life that year but somehow that letter made it worth the struggle.

高三英语阅读理解一模试题 3
One summer evening I was sitting by the open window, reading a good science storybook.I was so interested in the story I was reading that I did not notice that it was getting dark.When I realised it was too dark for me to read easily, I put the book down and got up to turn on the light.Just then I heard someone crying,“Help! Help!” It seemed to come from the trees at the other end of the yard.I looked out but it was now too dark to see anything clearly.Almost immediately I heard the cry again.It sounded like a child. I decided that I should have a look in the yard,just in case someone was in trouble.I turned on the light and found for myself a flashlight and a stick in the room.I thought they might be useful.Armed with these, I went out into the yard.Once again I heard the cry and this time there was no doubt that it came from the trees at the far end of the yard.“Whos there?” I called out as I walked across the yard towards the trees.But there was no answer.With the help of my flashlight, I searched all over that end of the yard, including the branches of the trees.There was no sign of anybody or anything.I came to the conclusion that my imagination was playing tricks on me, probably because of the story I was reading about strange creatures on another planet. Feeling rather foolish about hunting around in my own backyard, I went back into the house and put the stick and the flashlight away.I had just sat down to read my book again when I was frightened by the cry of “Help! Help!” from right behind me.I dropped my book and jumped up.There, sitting on my book was a large green and red bird.It was my neighbours parrot (鹦鹉)! It seemed as if the bird was very interested in the story.

高三英语阅读理解一模试题 4
How did your friendships begin? Most start with a short conversation on a random day.Asking about a homework assignment in class or complaining about your sore legs after playing in a soccer game, you found your best pal by accident. “Small talk is where all your relationships begin,”Forbes magazine summed up. The following is a fivestep guide to making small talk from Bernardo J.Carducci, the director of the Shyness Research Institute at Indiana University Southeast,US.Lets have a look.
1.Getting started
Begin by talking about the setting, such as the weather outside or the room you are in (“Its cold in here,isnt it?”).The purpose of talking about the setting is to show the other person that you are willing to make a conversation. 2.The personal introduction
You should mention something about yourself, such as your name.A good personal introduction helps move the conversation forward. 3.Looking for topics
At this point, you and your conversation partner need to find common
ground. This is a good time to ask questions or to refer back to things youve said or heard earlier.Dont worry if it gets quiet.The other person is probably just thinking of something to say. 4.Expanding the topic
The goal is to keep the conversation going.At every stage, you should be careful not to talk too much.But dont let the other person dominate(支配) the conversation either.If that starts to happen, mention something about yourself when he or she takes a breath. 5.A polite ending
When ending a conversation, let the person know youll be leaving soon, express gratitude for the conversation and set the stage for a future conversation.For example,you could say,“I really must be going soon,but I had a great time chatting with you.I really liked hearing your opinion about that new movie.Heres my phone number.Call or text me if you know of any other movies you think I might enjoy.”
1.According to the article, starting by talking about the setting is meant to .
A.find common ground
B.impress the other person
C.make the room warmer
D.show your eagerness to make a conversation 答案:D
解析:推理判断题。根据文章第四段“The purpose of talking about the setting is to show the other person that you are willing to make a conversation.”可知谈论环境是一个很好的表达你想要交流的.契机。
2.What is the reader advised to do when making small talk? A.Turn the conversation to your advantage. B.Never cut in when the other person is talking. C.Do whatever you can to avoid quiet moments. D.Focus on topics both sides are interested in. 答案:D
解析:推理判断题。根据文章第六段“At this point,you and your conversation partner need to find common ground.”可知。
3.When ending a conversation,youd better . A.talk about how much you want to keep talking B.show that youve not enjoyed the talk
C.mention a specific movie that you love
D.give your opinion about the other persons earlier comments 答案:A
解析:细节理解题。根据文章最后一段可知,在你即将离开前,要先给予对方暗示,同时还要传递“我很想把本次谈话延续下去”的意思。故A项符合。
4.The main purpose of the article is to .
A.encourage students to make more friends at school
B.give students tips on making small talk
C.introduce popular topics for students to have daily conversations about D.teach students how to create their friendships
答案:D
解析:写作意图题。根据文章第一段可知这是写给学生看的。再结合第一句话“How did your friendship begin?”可推测作者的意图是向学生介绍如何建立友谊。
