202832. (2020•西工大附中•四模) At the first Olympic marathon in 1896,athletes ran a shorter course than today's 42.2-kilometer event.Even so,only the winner finished within three hours.However,runners have improved,and one expert predicted last year that the two-hour mark would be broken in 2028.
   On Oct 12,Eliud Kipchoge came in ahead of schedule - literally.The 34-year-old Olympic champion from Kenya became the first person to run a marathon in less than two hours.Clocking in at 1:59:40,Kipchoge pumped his chest and even sped up after crossing the finish line as he ran happily to his wife. "No one is limited.Thiows the positivity of sport," Kipchoge told the BBC after the race in Vienna,Austria. "Together when we run,we can make it a beautiful world."
   Apart from Kipchoge's strong willpower and outstanding physical condition,a few tricks of science and technology helped him reach this milestone in human athletic achievement.
   Hills and turns slow runners down,so Kipchoge's team picked the course in Vienna for its gentle curves (弯曲度).
   The city's cool and dry weather was also important,said Wired.The magazine talked to exercise physiologists,who think the weather helped keep Kipchoge's body running more efficiently throughout the race.
   A special pair of shoes also played a big part.According to The New York Times,the shoes Kipchoge wore were designed to give a significant edge (优势) to anyone wearing them in a race.
   One other key to this breakthrough was Kipchoge's pacing strategy.He ran with a dream team of pacers, deployed by sports scientists.Five runners formed a V-shape ahead of Kipchoge,reducing drag (阻力),and two runners followed directly behind to push him forward.Kipchoge stayed in the center of the formation.The team rotated (轮换) members every five kilometers,and he stayed under a two-hour pace for almost the entire length of the race.There was also a pace car driving 15 meters in front of everyone,casting a laser (激光) line on the road to keep them on track.
   "Few world records today are technology free," noted The Telegraph.Hard work and dedication are still the core (核心) of athletic achievement,but science and technology are helping modern athletes maximize their potential.

220297. (2017•西电中学•高一下二月) People in the United States honor their parents with two special days:Mother's Day,on the second Sunday in May,and Father's Day,on the third Sunday in June.These days are set aside to show love and respect for parents.They raise their children and educate them to be responsible(有责任感的) citizens.They give love and care.These two days make us think about the changing roles of mothers and fathers.More mothers now work outside the home.More fathers must help with child care.These two special days are celebrated in many different ways.On Mother's Day people wear carnations.A red one symbolizes a living mother.A white one shows that the mother is dead.Many people attend religious services to honor parents.It is also a day when people whose parents are dead visit the cemetery(墓地).On these days families get together at home,as well as in restaurants.They often have outdoor barbecues for Father's Day.These are days of fun and good feelings and memories.Another tradition is to give cards and gifts.Children make them in school.Many people make their own presents.These are valued more than the ones bought in stores.It is not the value of the gift that is important,but it is "the thought that counts".Greeting card stores,florists,candy makers, ,telephone companies,and other stores do a lot of business during these holidays.

218232. (2023•西安三中•高一上二月) Online,English has become a common language for users from around the world.In the process,the language itself is changing.There are now thought to be some 4.5 billion web pages worldwide.Some language experts predict that within 10 years English will occupy the internet-but in forms very different to what we accept and recognize as English today.
   That's because people who speak English as a second language already outnumber native speakers.And increasingly,they use it to communicate with other non-native speakers,particularly on the internet where less attention is paid to grammar and spelling and users don't have to worry about their accent (口音).
   Users of Facebook already socialize in a number of different "Englishes" including Indian English,Spanish English and Korean English.While these different styles have long existed within their cultures,they're now expanding and coming online.Technology companies are introducing newly-developed English words with products aimed at enabling users to add words that are not already in the English dictionary.And most large companies have English websites,while smaller businesses are learning that they need a common language-English-to reach global customers.
   The increasing popularity of the internet allows more languages to develop quickly.
   "Most people actually speak several languages-it's less common to only speak one, " says Mr.Munro. "English has taken its place as the world's common language,but it's not pushing out other languages." Instead,other languages are pushing their way into English,and in the process creating something new.

(1)What does the text mainly talk about?        
A.English is a common language around the world.
B.There are now many different language styles.
C.English language is developing with the Internet.
D.Smaller businesses are learning a common language.
(2)Which of the following is NOT true about online communication?        
A.People need to spell exactly.
B.Grammar is not so important.
C.People do not care about their accent.
D.Most English-speakers are not native speakers.
(3)What can we infer from the text?        
A.We can only communicate online in English.
B.It's impossible to find all the English words in the dictionary.
C.Some technology companies start to publish English dictionaries.
D.Smaller businesses are not allowed to have English websites.
(4)What can we learn from what Mr.Munro said?        
A.The other languages are enriching English.
B.One can't live well without speaking several languages.
C.English will become the only language in the world.
D.Chinese used to be the world's common language.

213627. (2023•蓝田县•高二下期中) Imagine being handed a fake(假的)pill by your doctor to treat an illness.You would be pretty mad if you found out the pill was not a real medication,wouldn't you?Better yet,imagine the doctor tells you the pill is fake.At that point,you'd probably question whether the doctor even knows his staff at all.But wait,there's more to the story.
   Ted Kaptchuk of Harvard University conducted an experiment to help treat irritable bowel syndrome(肠过敏性综合征)pain in 2010,in which he clearly marked the patients' pills as "placebo"(安慰剂),or fake.Unbelievably,the group that was aware that it was receiving the placebo reported significant improvement in their condition.
   Many of you probably know about the placebo effect.It's the idea that giving patients an ineffective treatment -such as a sugar pill-for their condition might actually produce beneficial effects.
   Why does it work?We don't really know.One theory is that the placebo causes your brain to have a response that flows down to other parts of the body.Placebos presented as stimulants(兴奋剂)tend to increase the heart rate and blood pressure,and those presented as depressants do the opposite.
   In fact,the placebo effect can be compared to the experience of watching a horror movie.Although you know that what you're seeing isn't actually real,you most likely experience some pretty real effects such as increase in the heart rate and sweating.
   Kaptchuk's work differed from the traditional placebo effect,in that he told the patients that the pill they were receiving was not real medicine.When the patients have this knowledge,the term "open-label placebo" is used.The resulting improvement' proved that in many cases,patients don't need to be tricked in order for the desired effects of a placebo to take place.In fact,the fake medication helped some patients so much that they requested additional pills after the experiment was over.
   Of course,the natural question is:was this an extraordinary medical phenomenon,or just plain luck?That's why Kaptchuk and his team are attempting to do a seven-week trial before introducing the results to cancer survivors to treat severe tiredness caused by the aftereffects of the disease.

(1)The first paragraph of the article implies that       
A.doctors have poor medical ethics
B.fake medicines are sold in hospitals
C.patients don't really trust doctors
D.we may have a wrong idea of fake pills
(2)According to the passage,"the placebo effect" refers to the idea of       
A.taking fake pills to feel much better
B.using sugar pills to treat the patients
C.benefiting patients with real medicines
D.treating patients in an ineffective way
(3)What is the writer going to discuss next?       
A.Why does the placebo effect work in real life?
B.How will they carry out the seven-week trial?
C.Will a fake medication really exist in the world?
D.Are patients being totally treated with fake pills?

213743. (2023•高陵一中•高二下期中) For many years there's been a debate about rewarding our children.Does it work?Is it effective?
   Some people think we should establish a standard with our kids and give them something for meeting this standard as a reward.Punishment is given out in much the same way,but it's used when certain standards of performance,behavior,etc.have not been met.Kids will often become more dutiful when threatened with punishment,and work harder when promised a valuable reward.The problem is what happens when you aren't around.
   To develop responsible,self-disciplined(自律) kids,parents need to promote certain ideas.One of these ideas is that everyone pitches in(参与) and helps in your family.Another idea is that there can be enjoyment in doing any task if we choose to make it so.When a task is for a worthy cause (our family can enjoy the house more because I helped clean it),this message can have a big impact(影响).
   This is how we help our kids develop a sense of responsibility.When our children develop this responsibility,they'll be more disciplined,and they'll control their emotions better.When we give rewards to our kids,we reduce the sense of responsibility.We also create children who may temporarily perform to a certain standard,but who aren't likely to continue the performance without the carrot hanging in front of them.
   "Rewards and punishment can change behavior for a while,but they cannot change the person who engages in(参与) the behavior," said Alfie Kohn,author of Punished by Rewards. "Good values have to be grown from the inside out." Parents can help give their children a sense of shared responsibility and discipline which can last a life time.The real rewards that your children receive will be their readiness for the complex and demanding world that waits for them-a world that rewards those who have learned the secrets of discipline responsibility.So keep those shiny rewarding to yourself,and let your kids find their own rewards.

(1)According to the passage,when children are threatened with punishment,       
A.they may lose interest in their work
B.they may appear to be well-behaved
C.they may change to another person
D.the results will be worse than usual
(2)The underlined part "the carrot" in Paragraph 4 probably refers to       
A.rewards
B.aims
C.apologies
D.doubts
(3)According to the passage,Alfie Kohn would agree that parentould       
A.never pay attention to the way their children do things
B.show their children how to behave by example
C.never punish their children
D.help their children establish good values
(4)What's the best title for the passage?       
A.Do you often reward your children?
B.Should parents reward their children?
C.When should parents reward their children?
D.What can parents reward their children with?

214413. (2020•西安中学•高一下期中) "Farm to table" is the name of a movement that encourages people to eat locally grown food.The farm-to-table idea has become more popular in recent years.But there is also a movement that brings "table to farm".Its purpose is to connect people to the land and to honor local farmers by creating a sort of restaurant without walls.

   "This kind of event connects us with a lot of enthusiastic people,people that we can form relationships with, " said Matt Szechenyi,who operates Briars Farm.The tour of the farm ends at the dinner table.The meats in the meal come from Matt Szechenyi's farm.The vegetables come from nearby farms.Guests and local farmers sit together.
   Annoica Ingram came with a friend. "The food is wonderful.I appreciate their hard work.I see everything they have to do to take care of the animals and make sure they are well-cared-for.Without them,I think,we'll have big problems, " she said.

214516. (2020•西安一中•高一下期中) On average,American kids ages 3 to 12 spent 29 hours a week in school,eight hours more that they did in 1981.They also did more household work and participated in more of such organized activities as soccer and ballet (芭蕾舞).Involvement in sports,in particular,rose almost 50% from 1981 to 1997:boys now spend an average of four hours a week playing sports;girls log half that time.All in all,however,children's leisure time dropped from 40% of the day in 1981 to 25%
   "Children are affected by the same time crunch (危机) that affects their parents," says Sandra Hofferth,who headed the recent study of children's timetable.A chief reason,she says,is that more mothers are working outside the home. (Nevertheless,children in both double-income and "male breadwinner" households spent comparable amounts of time interacting with their parents 19 hours and 22 hours respectively.In contrast,children spent only 9 hours with their single mothers.)
   All work and no play could make for some very messed-up kids. "Play is the most powerful way a child explores the world and learns about himself," says T.Berry Brazelton,professor at Harvard Medical School Unstructured(unorganized)play encourages independent thinking and allows the young to handle their relationships with their peers,but kids ages 3 to 12 spent only 12 hours a week engaged in it.
   The children sampled spent a quarter of their rapidly decreasing "free time" watching television.But that,believe it or not,was one of the findings parents might regard as good news.If they're spending less time in front of the TV set,however,kids aren't replacing it with reading.Despite efforts to get kids more interested in books,the children spent just over an hour a week reading.Let's face it,who's got the time?

(1)By mentioning "the same time crunch"(Line 1,Para.2)Sandra Hofferth means       
A.children have little time to play with their parents
B.both parents and children suffer from lack of leisure time
C.children are not taken good care of by their working parents
D.both parents and children have trouble managing their time
(2)According to the author a child develops better if       
A.he has plenty of time reading and studying
B.he has more time participating in school activities
C.he is left to play with his peers in his own way
D.he is free to interact with his working parents
(3)We can infer from the passage that       
A.extracurricular activities(after-class activities) promote children's intelligence
B.most children will turn to reading with TV sets switched off
C.efforts to get kids interested in reading have been fruitful
D.most parents believe reading to be beneficial to children

214534. (2020•西安一中•高二下期中) Friday and Saturday were full of surprises for Chinese,as two places in China were listed as UNESCO World Heritage sites.The first,a World Natural Heritage,is composed of a series of migratory bird sanctuaries(候鸟保护地)along the coast of the Yellow Sea in Yancheng,East China's Jiangsu Province.The second,the Liangzhu Archaeological Site in Hangzhou,East China's Zhejiang Province,was listed as a World Cultural Heritage site.
   China began the application process for the bird sanctuaries in 2017.It only took two years to successfully complete the process.The reason the migratory bird sanctuary application was successful is because of the special geographical category of the area.It is the largest intertidal mudflat seashore in the world.The success of this application marks the beginning of China's world natural heritage from land to sea.The migratory bird sanctuaries are the central node of the East Asian-Australasian Flyway and many endangered species,especially threatened migratory birds including red- crowned cranes and flamingos,go there to hunt for food during the migration season.The birds usually take a month to finish their migration.At about 10 days into their migration,they must stop and find food in order to have the energy to continue their journey.
   Compared to the short turnaround for the World Natural Heritage's application,the Liangzhu application was far more complicated.The application team spent six years making their dream a reality.A lot of archaeological work had to be carried out for the Liangzhu site,which means the application and assessment(评定)process takes a longer time.The site in Liangzhu is evidence of the existence of an early regional state in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River during the late Neolithic period in China,which helps fill in the gaps in the history of the rice-cultivating civilizations of China and East Asia more than 5000 years ago.The site was one of the 20th century's most important archaeological discoveries in China.
   With these two new additions,China now has 55 World Heritage sites,the highest number in the world.The successful application means greater responsibility and obligations(义务).Protecting these places is much more important and is our future work.The new status of the migratory bird sanctuaries might boost local tourism industries but this too poses a challenge as local governments will need to control tourist volume so as not to impact the birds' migration patterns.Meanwhile,the sheer area that the Liangzhu Archaeological Site covers,some 14.3 square kilometers,makes protection a difficult issue to handle.Those workings at the site are busy constructing protective shelters for the site and even reburying certain areas to protect them from exposure.Plans are also underway to build a local museum for the storage and display of artifacts,so visitors can come and learn more about the history of the nation.

(1)What is special about the migratory bird sanctuaries?       
A.It's the first China's world natural heritage on the sea.
B.It provides safe habitats for endangered species.
C.It's located along the coast of the Yellow River.
D.It supplies abundant fresh water to migratory birds.
(2)According to Paragraph 2,how do migratory bird sanctuaries protect birds?       
A.By creating warm places to produce baby birds.
B.By preventing them from being killed by hunters.
C.By providing food supplies during their migration.
D.By curing the endangered birds after their journey.
(3)Why is Liangzhu chosen for the world heritage site?       
A.It shows the long history of China.
B.It proves the wisdom of the people.
C.It witnesses the civilization of an age.
D.It reveals the food of the late Neolithic.
(4)What is the last paragraph mainly talking about?       
A.The application success's promotion of tourism.
B.Chinese responsibilities after the successful application.
C.The two places' influence on Chinese history.
D.Chinese challenge of protecting birds' migration.

214607. (2019•西电附中•高一上期中) If you are planning on travelling,there are few simple rules about how to make life easier both before and after your journey.
   First of all,always check and doublecheck departure(出发) time.It is surprising how few people really do this carefully.Once I arrived at the airport a few minutes after ten.My secretary had got the ticket for me and I thought she had said that the plane left at 10:50.When I arrived at the airport,the person at the departure desk told me that my flight was closed.Therefore,I had to wait three hours for the next one and missed an important meeting.
   The second rule is to remember that even in this age of credit cards(信用卡),it is still important to have some local money in cash(现金).Once I arrived at a place at midnight and the bank at the airport was closed.The only way to get to my hotel was by taxi but because I had no dollars,I offered to pay in pounds instead. "Listen!I only take real money!" the driver said angrily.You can image how terrible I felt at that moment.
   The third and the last rule is to find out as much as you can about the weather at your destination before you leave.I feel sorry for some of my workmates who travel in heavy suits and raincoats in May,when it is still fairly cool in London or Manchester,to places like Athens,Rome or Madrid,where it is already beginning to get quite warm during the day.

(1)Where is the writer most probably from?        
A.Britain
B.The USA
C.Italy
D.Greece
(2)When the writer found he had no dollars to pay the taxi driver,he        
A.asked the driver to give him a free ride
B.offered to pay in pounds
C.gave the driver some fake(假的)money
D.tried to pay by credit card
(3)Generally,in May the weather in London is        
A.warm and dry
B.cold and dry
C.hot and wet
D.cool and rainy

214609. (2019•西电附中•高一上期中) When it comes to learning a foreign language,many people wonder if they will be able to memorize enough vocabulary.But this question never happens about their mother tongue,and yet,it was a foreign language once.However,among all the questions that new parents ask,no doctor has ever heard: "Will my baby be able to learn my language?" Be honest,do you know all the words of your mother tongue?The answer is: "no".
   New words,and new ways of using old words,appear every day.Twenty years ago,who could have been able to understand a sentence like this: "Click here to download your digital book."?Nobody.You never stop learning new vocabulary and you never know how long you will need it.
   Sometimes,you have the word on the tip of your tongue…and it sticks there!But you do know this phenomenon(现象) and don't think that it is because of a bad memory.You should not give this phenomenon more importance in the language you are learning than in your mother tongue.
   You need to learn only 2000 or so basic words to be able to create any phrase you need.You can't avoid some work in order to learn these necessary words and all the more if you want to learn quickly.And before you consider buying into any method,be sure it is right for you.It is not wise to depend on any method based upon mnemonics(记忆群).The first few words seem very easy to learn,so you buy the course,but then you discover quickly,though too late,that a dozen words later,it is all the more difficult to learn a new word when you have also to learn the trick to memorize it.

217774. (2025•西安中学•高二下期末) A typical lion tamer (驯兽师) in people's mind is an entertainer holding a whip (鞭) and a chair.The whip gets all of the attention,but it's mostly for show.In reality,it's the chair that does the important work.When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lion's face,the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time.With its focus divided,the lion becomes confused and is unsure about what to do next.When faced with so many options,the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the man holding the chair.
   How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion?How often do you have something you want to achieve (e.g.lose weight,start a business,travel more)- only to end up confused by all of the options in front of you and never make progress?
   This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best,the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the conflicting information.The end result is that we feel like we can't focus or that we're focused on the wrong things,and so we take less action,make less progress,and stay the same when we could be improving.
   It doesn't have to be that way.Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face,remember this:All you need to do is focus on one thing.You just need to get started.Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of successful people.If you have somewhere you want to go,something you want to accomplish,someone you want to become …take immediate action.If you're clear about where you want to go,the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out of the way.

(1)Why does the lion tamer use a chair?       
A.To trick the lion.
B.To show off his skills.
C.To get ready for a fight.
D.To entertain the audience.
(2)In what sense are people similar to a lion facing a chair?       
A.They feel puzzled over choices.
B.They hold on to the wrong things.
C.They find it hard to make changes.
D.They have to do something for show.
(3)What is the author's attitude towards the experts mentioned in Paragraph 3?       
A.Tolerant.
B.Doubtful.
C.Respectful.
D.Supportive.
(4)When the world is "waving a chair in your face",you're advised to       
A.wait for a better chance
B.break your old habits
C.make a quick decision
D.ask for clear guidance

217803. (2024•西安一中•高一上一月)  Current Culture:Is Common Culture Alive? The digitizing(数字化) and globalizing world is changing the working of culture.As some see it,cities and nations are losing their common culture and their general spirit:people can no longer depend on those around them valuing any of the same music or films.Others argue that a common culture is not dying so much as changing forms:it is less and less attached to a particular area and ever more linked to global networks.
    The facts lead to the change that anyone can become a cultural producer today,that the culture is increasingly available everywhere you want it,and whenever you want it,not just in the two months after the movie or book came out.Cultural possibilities have multiplied (倍增) as a result,but the change also means fewer cultural moments.It is easy to find the change in terms of loss of diversity of society.So what will it mean if globalization turns us into one wide world culture?
    For the enthusiasts (热衷者) of these changes,culture is not about popular artists or books,but centers on platforms like Google and Wikipedia,where every variety of culture brings about the exchange of knowledge and ideas,and makes connections across boundaries (边界) .It is perhaps debatable whether two people who have participated in such websites,but in totally different corners of them,have had a cultural experience in common.In fact,these platforms become very successful with a large crowd of people,who build things together,share information,and forward articles back and forth.
    There are still more questions.What does it mean for the future of countries that culture now goes beyond the limits of the nation?Is there anything to defend and preserve(维护) in the passing cultural world,or is that only to favor pen over printing press,horse over automobile(汽车)?
    Up to now a growing quantity of culture has been globally spreading and developing.More individuals than ever have the chances to be makers of culture,even if that means more to choose from and fewer standards to be reached in common.What it means is this strange feeling:that of being more connected than ever,with one-click(点击) access to so much of the cultural harvest around the world,and yet,of being starved for having similar interests and opinions with others,concerned only with ourselves.

(1)In Paragraph 1 the author indicates        .
A.the missing of common culture
B.the cultural diversity among people
C.the disadvantage in the digitizing society
D.the double standard of cultural evaluation
(2)It can be inferred from Paragraph 3 that        .
A.people feel satisfied with the current culture
B.enthusiasts look for current culture from famous artists
C.disappearance of common culture is a problem to be solved
D.common culture may exit into websites that connect the world
(3)What is the author's attitude towards current culture?        
A.Uninterested.
B.favorable.
C.Uncertain.
D.Critical.

218592. (2022•关山中学•高一上三月) A quick walk onto a frozen pond could have been a disaster for these two boys.
   Cruz Genet,11,and Anthony Skopick,10,couldn't agree.Were the birds out on the ice ducks or geese?There was only one way to find out.So on a cold January evening last year,the two friends walked onto the frozen pond near their homes to get a better look.
   First,they threw a rock onto the ice to test it.Convinced the ice would hold their weight,Anthony took a few steps,and then he crashed through the seemingly frozen surface. "There was no sound,no crack," he told the reporter. "I just fell through instantly."

218712. (2022•西工大附中•高三上二月) Technology is more than an abstract concept associated with advanced tools and systems.It also shapes the way people behave,grow and develop,both within their own lives and in their relationships with others.While technology has developed over thousands of years,the last century has seen an explosion in technology that has influenced fundamental changes in how humans see the world and interact with others.Specifically,the Internet and mobile devices have completely changed the way people interact with each other.There has been a debate going on whether technology is benefiting human communication or ruining it.
