205897. （2017•西安中学•高一上期末） When I recently told my friends，colleagues，and family members that I would be moving my family to Israel，the reactions were numerous and different．Some people said it was an expected thing while others asked：Why now？What will you do？
   For me，making the move to Israel is the realization of a dream that has lasted for my 47 years of life．I have always known that Israel is my home．Over the years Israel has been in my heart，but I have found a number of reasons to put off making it my permanent residence（永久定居地）：kids，the economy（经济），education…You name an excuse，and at some point I have probably used it．
   Truthfully，I believe that I was always just a little bit scared．And of course I still am，with the fear factor that is reported by the press surrounding the Israeli army and economy．However，it has come to the point when I have realized that for over 2，000 years we dreamed of this land，and for 47 years I have denied the opportunity to make it my home．I am finally ready to fully grasp this chance．
   Over the years，I've always loved visiting Israel．I have traveled there with my family，and enjoyed introducing thousands of travelers to the country．All of these things that I have come to love about Israel as a tourist are because I get to love my home．
   I have been asked many times if I am nervous about moving to Israel．Before I answer，I remember that we have overcome the Greeks，the Romans，the Russian killings，Hitler and the Holocaust（大屠杀），and the armies of seven countries．How can I not feel confident that I，and my family，will overcome any difficulties that may come our way？I am not worrying，complaining，crying，or fearing as I prepare to move．I am proud and excited to say that I am realizing a 47-year-old dream．I am going home．

（1）What does the author want to say in the passage？
A．His dream is to come true after 47 years．
B．It is a difficult choice for him to return to Israel．
C．He didn't live a happy life in Israel．

（2）The author didn't return to Israel before because       ．
A．his children mainly held him back
B．he failed to get determined
C．he didn't save enough money
D．he hoped to finish his education
（3）It can be inferred from the passage that       ．

213649. （2023•鄠邑四中•高一下期中） It was the first snow of winter - an exciting day for every child but not for most teachers．Up until now，I had been old enough to dress myself，but today I would need some help．Miss Finlayson，my kindergarten teacher，had been through first snow days many times，but I think she may still remember this one．
   I managed to get into my wool snow trousers．But I struggled with my jacket because it didn't fit well．It was a hand-me-down from my brother，and it made me wonder why I had to wear his ugly clothes．At least my hat and scarf were mine，and they were quite pretty．Finally it was time to have Miss Finlayson help me with my boots（靴子）．
   In her calm，motherly voice she said， "By the end of winter，you will all be able to put on your own boots．" I didn't realize at the time that this was more a statement of hope than of confidence．
   I handed her my boots and stuck out my foot．Like most children，I expected grown-ups to do all the work．After much pushing，she managed to get the first one into place and then，with a sigh，worked the second one on too．
   I announced， "They're on the wrong feet．"
    She struggled to get the boots off and went through the joyless task of putting them on again．
    "They're my brother's boots，you know，" I said． "I hate them!"
    Somehow，from long years of practice，she managed to act as though I wasn't an annoying（烦人的）little girl，She pushed and pushed，less gently this time．With a greater sigh，seeing the end of her struggle with me，she asked， "Now，where are your mittens（连指手套）？"
   I looked into her eyes and said， "I didn't want to lose them，so I hid them in the toes of my boots．"

214552. （2019•长安五中•高三上期中） Next month，I'm traveling to a remote area of Central Africa and my aim is to know enough Lingala - one of the local languages - to have a conversation．I wasn't sure how I was going to manage this - until I discovered a way to learn all the vocabulary I'm going to need．Thanks to Memrise，the app I'm using．It feels just like a game．
   "People often stop learning things because they feel they're not making progress or because it all feels like too much hard work，" says Ed Cooke，one of the people who created Memrise． "We're trying to create a form of learning experience that is fun and is something you'd want to do instead of watching TV．"
   Memrise gives you a few new words to learn and these are "seeds" which you plant in your "greenhouse"．When you practice the words，you "water your plants"．When the app believes that you have really remembered a word，it moves the word to your "garden"．And if you forget to log on （登录），the app sends you emails that remind you to "water your plants"．
   The app uses two principles about learning．The first is that people remember things better when they link them to a picture in their mind．Memrise translates words into your own language，but it also encourages you to use "mems"．For example，I memorized motele，the Lingala word for "engine"，using a mem I created - I imagined an old engine in a motel （汽车旅馆） room．
   The second principle is that we need to stop after studying words and then repeat them again later，leaving time between study sessions．Memrise helps you with this，because it's the kind of app you only use for five or ten minutes a day．
   I've learnt hundreds of Lingala words with Memrise．I know this won't make me a fluent speaker，but I hope I'll be able to do more than just smile when I meet people in Congo．Now，I need to go and water my Vocabulary!

（1）What does Ed Cooke make an effort to do with Memrise？
A．Create memorable experiences．
B．Make progress with hard work．
C．Master languages through games．
D．Combine study with entertainment．
（2）What do the underlined words "water your plants" in Paragraph 3 refer to？
A．Learning new words．
B．Being a Memrise user．
C．Logging on to the app．
D．Taking care of your garden．
（3）How does Memrise work？
A．By linking different mems together．
B．By putting knowledge into practice．
C．By offering human translation services．
D．By applying an associative memory approach．
（4）What is the author's attitude towards Memrise？
A．Positive．
B．Doubtful．
C．Uncaring．
D．Disapproving．

214698. （2017•西安中学•高三上期中） Sports are the base of my life，next to my mother who raised me when my dad left us．I have been into sports since I was six years old．I have known many coaches and heard hundreds of their tips，but they usually focused on drills to develop my skills and reach the next level of play．
When I was in Senior two，I met the new school basketball coach，Brian Pawloski．I thought I was certain to be selected for the school team since I had been in it the year before．I showed up to the tryouts and put out about 90% effort since I thought I'd make it with no problem．That was a big mistake．
Brian Pawloski is the hardest-working coach I have ever met．He didn't expect 100% effort，he expected 200% effort．One example：he once made us do 40 suicide
drills for the 40 lay-ups（投篮） we missed in a game．Some think this is crazy，but it isn't．
After this conditioning practice，as we were getting a cup of cold water to drink，I said，"Coach，that was the best practice I ever had．"I was completely sincere．This man was and is the person who influenced me most at my high school．He expects us to be excellent not just on the court but in the classroom．If I am not working on basketball，I am reading a book that he thinks will help us better understand life's challenges，including Wooden，Coach and The Screwtape Letters．
In the first two years I slacked off，not putting forth my full potential．Now，unlike the coaches of my youth，this man was interested in how we did off the court．He always made sure I kept up with my studies and was able to be trusted．I can honestly say that no other coach has given me so much advice on how to succeed in basketball，but more importantly，in life．My school is lucky to have such a great person to teach，coach and influence their students．I will always remember my high-school basketball days as one of the hardest times I have ever worked in my life not only in basketball but in my growth as an individual．

（1）Different from other coaches，Coach Brian        ．
A．concentrated on skill training
B．trained the team to the edge of death
C．expected the team to do well in their studies
D．asked the team to do more reading than training
（2）The underlined phrase"slacked off"in the last paragraph probably means        ．
A．paid no attention
B．showed no interest
C．had less passion
D．made less effort
（3）In the author's eyes，Coach Brian is        ．
A．strict and helpful
B．hardworking and honest
C．skilled and cruel
D．professional and serious．

214718. （2018•西安中学•高二下期中） I'd never run more than 10 km but I was stepping it up to 4 times the distance - the 2017 London Marathon for charity．My target was to raise ￡2，000，a big challenge．But it was brilliant because collecting not only motivates you to train hard，but also means you're not just running for yourself．You're running for something much greater．
   You'd be surprised at how many people donate money around the time of the marathon．People were so crazy that I hardly noticed how quickly things happened and how quickly the following months flew by．It was my first marathon．I did my research，made a plan and put it up on my wall and crossed an item off every time I went for a run．That's the key．The training plan lasted 16 weeks．I started with five-mile runs and got myself up to 8-10 miles．
   Your training pays off on the day of the event．Go over Tower Bridge with thousands of people cheering you on，and run down roads that you never get the opportunity to go to - it's amazing．It's like a leap of faith．The truth is that if you never take the risk，you'll never know how much you'll push yourself and what you can achieve．
   I haven't made a decision whether to take part in next year's London Marathon．But that's fine．I know I've already achieved something rather special that I can't stop talking about．

（1）What is the author's purpose in joining in the marathon？
A．To earn a reputation．
B．To challenge a 40 km run．
C．To raise awareness of physical exercise．
D．To collect money for charity．
（2）What is the most important in the preparation according to the author？
A．The proper training plan．
B．The craziness about the marathon．
C．The donation around the marathon．
D．The gradual change in the running distance．
（3）What did the author think of the marathon？
A．It's troublesome．
B．It's disordered．
C．It's exhausting．
D．It's inspiring．
（4）What can we learn from the last paragraph？
A．The author has decided to enter for the 2018 London Marathon．
B．The author will take part in other marathons all around the world．
C．The author regards the marathon experience as one of his proudest．
D．The author thinks one marathon is enough for a person to take pride of．

214747. （2017•西安中学•高二上期中） Fifteen years ago，I took a summer vacation in Lecce in southern Italy．After climbing up a hill for a panoramic（全景的） view of the blue sea，white buildings and green olive trees，I paused to catch my breath and then positioned myself to take the best photo of this panorama．
Unfortunately，just as I took out my camera，a woman approached from behind，and planted herself right in front of my view．Like me，this woman was here to stop，sigh and appreciate the view．
Patient as I was，after about 15 minutes，my camera scanning the sun and reviewing the shot I would eventually take，I grew frustrated．Was it too much to ask her to move so I could take just one picture of the landscape？Sure，I could have asked her，but something prevented me from doing so．She seemed so content in her observation．I didn't want to mess with that．
Another 15 minutes passed and I grew bored．The woman was still there．I decided to take the photo anyway．And now when I look at it，I think her presence in the photo is what makes the image interesting．The landscape，beautiful on its own，somehow comes to life and breathes because this woman is engaging with it．
This photo，with the unique beauty that unfolded before me and that woman who"ruined"it，now hangs on a wall in my bedroom．What would she think if she knew that her figure is captured（捕捉） and frozen on some stranger's bedroom wall？A bedroom，after all，is a very private space，in which some woman I don't even know has been immortalized（使…永存）．In some ways，she lives in my house．
Perhaps we all live in each other's space．Perhaps this is what photos are for：to remind us that we all appreciate beauty，that we all share a common desire for pleasure，for connection，for something that is greater than us．
That photo is a reminder，a captured moment，an unspoken conversation between two women，separated only by a thin square of glass．

（1）What happened when the author was about to take a photo？
A．Her camera stopped working．
B．A woman blocked her view．
C．Someone asked her to leave．
D．A friend approached from behind．
（2）According to the author，the woman was probably        ．
A．enjoying herself
B．losing her patience
C．waiting for the sunset
D．thinking about her past
（3）In the author's opinion，what makes the photo so alive？
A．The rich color of the landscape．
B．The perfect positioning of the camera．
C．The woman's existence in the photo．
D．The soft sunlight that summer day．
（4）The photo on the bedroom wall enables the author to better understand        ．
A．the need to be close to nature
B．the importance of private space
C．the joy of the vacation in Italy
D．the shared passion for beauty．

215149. （2016•西北大附中•高二下期中） Most of us spend our lives seeking the natural world．We go fishing，sit in the garden，have a picnic，live in the suburbs or go to the seaside．The most popular leisure activity in Britain is going for a walk．When joggers jog，they don't run the streets．Every one of them tend to go to the park or the river．
But despite this，our children are growing up nature deprived（剥夺）．I spent my boyhood climbing trees．These days，children are robbed of these ancient freedoms，due to problems like crime，traffic，the loss of the open spaces and strange new ideas about what is best for children，that is to say，things that can be bought，rather than things that can be found．
The truth is to be found elsewhere．A study in the US：families had moved to better housing and the children were assessed for ADHD-attention deficit hyperactivity disorder（多动症）．Those whose accommodation had more natural viewowed an improvement of 19%；those who had the same improvement in material surroundings but no nice view improved just 4%．
ADHD is one of the great problems of modern childhood．One study after another indicates that contact with nature gives huge benefits to ADHD children．However，we spend money on drugs rather than on green places．
The life of old people is measurably better when they have access to nature．The increasing concern for the growing population of old people is in quality rather than quantity of years．And study after study finds that a garden is the single most important thing in finding that quality．Even problems with crime and aggressive behaviour are reduced when there is contact with the natural world．
We need the wild world．It is essential to our wellbeing，our health and our happiness．
（1）According to the author，people enjoy         to seek nature．
A．jogging on the street
B．sitting in the garden
C．shopping in the supermarket
D．running in the gym
（2）From the second paragraph，we can see that        ．
A．adults deprive the children of their rights to approach nature
B．climbing trees will certainly do good to the children
C．children probably spend less time in nature nowadays
D．children tend to be happier as a result of their material satisfaction
（3）In what way do people benefit from their contact with nature？
A．Children with ADHD can be cured．

205805. （2017•西北大附中•高二下期末） I had often dreamt of the possibility of spending a year away from my hometown of Leeds in England，living in a foreign country．By the time I was old enough，however，I thought that my language was going to hold me back．
However，luckily for me，Leeds University，where I was studying at the time，made it possible for any student，even people like myself speaking only one language，to study abroad．Before I knew it I was boarding a plane for Salzburg，Austria．I wasn't quite sure what to expect of the experience ahead of me but I was prepared to accept the challenge．
The university was quite small but the classes were large．Also，Austrian students usually take five years to complete their courses，so studying was somewhat more relaxed than at home．Austrian students go home quite often，too．Therefore，the foreign students had to socialise with each other quite a lot，which didn't help our language skills．
Salzburg itself is a picture-postcard Austrian city．It is also famous for being the birthplace of Mozart and the setting for The Sound of Music．As a result，it is usually very busy with tourists．I also found that it doesn't have a lot going on for young people，in comparison to Leeds．
There were，however，many advantages to living in Salzburg．For example，get on a train and you can be in Prague，Rome or Krakow within a matter of hours．By the end of my year in Salzburg，I had visited eight other countries in Europe．
After spending a year overseas，I went back to my course in Leeds much more focused on what I wanted to get out of my last year and more appreciative of the opportunities （机会） university provides．The year in Salzburg really showed me that you get a lot more out of a place when you live there compared to when you are just travelling through．I'd recommend all students to spend a year studying abroad if they can．

（1）In the author's opinion，what may have prevented his studying abroad？
A．His not being old enough．
B．His fearing the culture shock．
C．His becoming homesick easily．
D．His not knowing a foreign language．
（2）Compared with Leeds University，the university in Salzburg       ．
A．provides more social events
B．has longer university years
C．has more foreign students
D．offers more small classes
（3）One advantage the author mentions about Salzburg is that       ．
A．it's a good location for travelling
B．it has a high-speed rail network
C．it's the hometown of Mozart
D．it's full of foreign tourists
（4）What does the author think of his experience of studying abroad？
A．He benefited a lot from it．
B．He regretted studying abroad．
C．It was far from what he expected．
D．It badly affected his studies at home．

215167. （2015•西北大附中•高二上期中） Dear John，
My name is Amber and I want to share my story with you because what you've shared about life and positive energy has changed my life．This past year has been one of the hardest for me．I felt I was stuck in a position that had nothing to do with what I wanted to do with my life．In January，after two years of being together，my boyfriend left me．
I read your blog every morning as I drink my coffee at work，but it wasn't until this March that I told myself"no more negativity"as you taught readers in your blog．
Since then I've got into new habits at work to keep my energy positive．When people walk in the front door，I'm the first face they see，so I smile big when I say"good morning"to them，especially on Mondays．Instead of waiting for someone to ask me for help，I offer it with an open mind．The CEO noticed my change and offered me the executive assistant position that I wanted．
One of the biggest things I've taken to heart from your blog is changing my opinions on my job．Yes，it was not an important position，but when I was passionate （热情的） about it，I could make my life fulfilling．
All in all，I have to thank you somehow for having the passion to help others because it truly is inspiring to me．So thank you so much，John．My life has changed because your words pointed me in the right direction，Take care!

215321. （2015•七十中•高一上期中） When did you last see a polar bear？On a trip to a zoo，perhaps？If you had attended a winter activity in New York a few years ago，you would have seen a whole polar bear club．These"Polar Bears"are people who meet frequently in the winter to swim in freezing cold water．That day，the air temperature was 3℃，and the water temperature was a bit higher．The members of the Polar Bear Club at Coney Island，New York are usually about the age of 60．Members must satisfy two requirements．First，they must get along well with everyone else in the group．This is very important because there are so many different kinds of people in the club．Polar Bears must also agree to swim outdoors at least twice a month from November through February．
Doctors do not agree about the medical effects of cold-water swimming．Some are worried about the dangers of a condition in which the body's temperature drops so low that finally the heart stops．Other doctors，however，point out that there is more danger of a heart attack during summer swimming because the difference between the air temperature and water temperature is much greater in summer than in winter．
The Polar Bears themselves are satisfied with the benefits （or advantages） of cold-water swimming．They say that their favorite form of exercise is very good for the circulatory system（循环系统）because it forces the blood to move fast to keep the body warm．Cold-water swimmers usually turn bright red after a few minutes in the water．A person who turns blue probably has a very poor circulatory system and should not try cold-water swimming．
The main benefits （or advantages） of cold-water swimming are probably mental．The Polar Bears love to swim year-round；they find it fun and relaxing．As one 70-year-old woman says．"When I go into the water，I pour my troubles into the ocean and let them float away．"

B．cold-water swimming causes more heart attacks in summer than in winter

219607. （2020•长安区一中•高一上一月） I started to work as an editor for a travel magazine.I didn't really mind the work，but I wanted something more challenging.My sister sent me some details for a position in a startup.The job was a seemingly perfect mix of my skills and interests，so I jumped at it.
   However，soon after I joined the company，its model changed to focus on education，and everything about my position changed.I was asked to take on the completely different roles of selling contents to teachers and training people.I had no experience in sales，training or education.I felt more a little outside my comfort zone.
   I knew I wanted to grow as an individual and make a serious effect on the company.I told myself that everything feels overwhelming（巨大的）at first and I should at least try.In a way，I felt like I didn't have a choice.I knew jumping out of the nest was the right thing for me，even though it felt pretty awful.
   I was lucky to be surrounded by very helpful people，both at work and at home.My boss never asked if I thought I could do it；she asked if I was interested in trying.
   I spent hours researching my company's products.I asked lots of questions and spoke to so many teachers that there were soon more good experiences than difficult ones.I looked for chances to put in extra effort.The more I did，the better I felt.
   Over time，I discovered that the job was something I could do and liked doing.It was unbelievably rewarding to see the company grow.I also learned it's important to take risks and accept new opportunities，even when you're not sure if you'll do well.I don't think there's anything worse than failing to try.I'm so glad I tried，and it surely paid off.

（1）Why did the author want to change her job？
A．She got bored of her old boss.

（2）How did the author feel after she entered the new company？
A．Excited.
B．Stressed.
C．Curious.

（3）The author could finally handle her job mainly because       .

B．she knew she would do well
C．she was hardworking and made a lot of effort
