201948. （2023•周至县•三模） A smile is the key to a thousand doors，but deploying （有效利用）it in every situation without mastery of its use is dangerous，says a new social science study.
   Scientists say it takes a great many muscles to smile；scientists at Queen's University Belfast in a recent study found that subtle（细微的）differences in the way in which a person smiled had not-so-subtle impacts on the opinions which the test participants had about the smiler. "Smiling at another person does not always lead to trust and cooperation，" said Dr.Stephanie Carpenter from the University of Michigan，a co-author of the study. "Subtle differences in a smile can definitely have a real impact on whether people trust each other and choose to cooperate.In fact，the way you smile in a good or bad situation can impact whether people trust you.
   "Think about movie villains（恶棍），for example in James Bond films，" said Dr.Magdalena Rychlowska from Queen's University，who led the research published in Cognition and Emotion journal. "They often make happy smiles when something bad has happened or is about to happen.This context makes these otherwise happy and normal smiles feel threatening and unpleasant." She adds，"The findings of this study show the power of subtle facial expressions and the positive consequences that an affiliation smile can have in difficult situations.It also highlights the importance of social context-a happy smile that could be read as a signal of trustworthiness in one setting can，but in another setting，it can be seen as the evidence of bad intentions."
   Mastery of the smile then，can be an excellent way of getting out of difficult social situations，while the lack thereof can be an excellent way of getting into one.

202207. （2022•长安区一中•五模） This is the greatest mystery of our adult life：How can we spend all day typing at a computer and go home feeling exhausted？How could merely activating the small muscles of our fingers leave us worn out at the end of the day？What causes mental fatigue？
   "It is kind of a mystery，to be honest." said Michael Inzlicht，a University of Toronto psychologist who studies self-control，motivation，and fatigue.But scientists do have some clues.There is a hypothesis for why we get so tired from work when we're not physically active.We get so tired because our motivation runs out.As we work on a task，we struggle to focus on it or eventually lose interest in it.We become less motivated to do the task.We become drawn to the things we want to do（browsing social media or reading music blogs，for instance） rather than the things we have to do.
   Researchers in the UK published new evidence that finds some indirect evidence for the motivational model.This study tracked 100 nurses in the UK over two 12-hour shifts.
   Throughout the shifts，the nurses reported how fatigued they felt at regular intervals.They also wore devices that monitored and tracked the amount of physical activity they were engaged in.When the researchers investigated what could possibly explain the fatigue，they found some interesting patterns.Here's the result：There was no connection between the amount of physical work the nurses did and their feelings of fatigue.Instead，they found this small connection：The nurses who were least likely to feel fatigued from their work also felt the most in control of their work，and the most rewarded for it.These feelings may have boosted their motivation，which may have boosted their perception of having energy.
   Inzlicht has also found evidence for the motivational model in his work.A few years ago，he and Carleton University psychologist Marina Milyavskaya monitored 159 students at McGill University in Canada for a week. "What was surprising to us was the biggest predictor of fatigue，not whether they had self-control." Inzlicht said. "Instead，the predictor was the number of temptations they felt." "If you're typing at work，and if you're anything like me，you got a few browsers open.These lead to temptations，" he said. "Temptations make us less motivated to do our work，which，in turn，may make us tired."
   And there may be an evolutionary reason for why our brains would do this. "As an organism，we need to meet multiple goals to survive." Inzlicht explains. "We're not merely focused on finding food or pursuing our passions in life.We need to do all these things to be a healthy，thriving species." Because these multiple goals compete with one another（for our time），we need a mechanism sending signals. "Hey，stop doing that thing and do something else." That mechanism，he suggests，could be fatigue.In this light，boosting our motivation to stay on a task could lead us to feel less fatigued.

（1）Why does the author ask so many questions in the first paragraph？
A．To introduce a common phenomenon.
B．To raise some questions that are appealing.
C．To lead to the theme and attract attention.
D．To show the author's concern of the problem.
（2）The underlined word "fatigue" in the passage could best be replaced by        .
A．excitement
B．tiredness
C．health
D．disability
（3）Which one is the hypothesis for why we are often feel exhausted after one-day work？
A．We are drawn to others things we have to do.
B．Lacking drive to finish a task leads to tiredness.
C．Smaller amount of physical activity makes us more tired.
D．Better self-control can boost one's motivation to work.
（4）Which of the following may Inzlicht agree with？
A．The person with strong self-control can get more reward from work.
B．The one who are less motivated will be exposed to more temptations.
C．While typing，we use little part of our muscle，which is more tiring.
D．Typing with some browsers open will sometimes makes us more tired.

202225. （2022•临潼区•一模） It is generally acknowledged that a time-out，a method of checking misbehavior by removing the child from his or her current situation for a few minutes of quiet time，is bad for children's emotional and behavioral health.However，a new study suggests that despite always getting criticized，the common disciplinary（纪律的）strategy isn't linked to harmful effects on children.
   Researchers compared emotional and behavioral health between kids whose parents reported using time-outs and those who didn't over a roughly eight-year period.The result：no difference.There was no association between reported use of time-outs and negative symptoms in later childhood，including anxiety，depression，internalizing or externalizing problems，aggression，rule-breaking behavior，or self-control，according to the findings in Journal of Developmental and Behavioral Pediatrics（儿科学）.
   "Parents are constantly questioning whether they are doing the right thing for their children.Unfortunately the first place many parents go for advice is the Internet-not a medical provider.There is a lot of conflicting information on the Web that isn't accurate，" says lead author Rachel Knight，PhD，pediatric psychologist at University of Michigan C.S.Mott Children's Hospital. "In fact，they may not be aware that time-out is one of the child discipline strategies currently recommended by American Academy of Pediatrics."
   Further studies are needed to continue evaluating specific claims made against time-outs and both their short-term and long-term effects across different populations and ages.Experts also need to find more effective ways to communicate evidence-based information to parents.
   "As we further our understanding about how different parenting strategies affect children，we need to present findings in an easily digestible and accessible way for the public，" she also says，"Our goal is to clear up misconceptions and promote the use of the highly effective，evidence-based strategies that will best guide parents and families."

（1）What do people generally think of a time-out？
A．It has negative effects on children.
B．It is an ineffective way of punishment.
C．It is a method to assess children's misbehavior.
D．It has nothing to do with harmful effects on children.
（2）What can be inferred from Knight's words in the third paragraph？
A．Most young parents lack medical knowledge.
B．Some information on the Internet needs regulating.
C．She is concerned about the overuse of time-outs.
D．The more time-outs are used，the better children behave.
（3）What is the target of Knight's further research？
A．To recommend some effective strategies to parents.
B．To remove people's misunderstanding about time-outs.
C．To appeal to government to regulate information on the Net.
D．To warn parents of getting evidence-based information from experts.
（4）What's the best title for the text？
A．How Parents Use Time-out Correctly.
B．Time-outs Bad for Children's Behavioral Health.
C．Some Highly Effective Strategies to Guide Parents.
D．Time-outs Not Associated with Negative Effects on Children.

204479. （2023•莲湖区•高一上期末） In January 2020，over a bottle of wine，Tulane University students Franziska Trautmann and Max Steitz were sharing their disappointment about having no glass recycling（回收利用） in New Orleans.They wanted to create a system that would recycle glass into something useful.With that，their grassroots glass recycling organization，Glass Half Full，was born.
   In a period of a global sand shortage，Glass Half Full is creating a way to compete with sand digging and mining，which disturb ecosystems，damage coastlines，and cost millions of dollars.Louisiana，where the organization is based，loses on average a football field of coastal wetlands an hour.Glass Half Full creates sand that，among other things，is used to rebuild coastlines and prevent floods.
   Glass and drink bottles are collected through a system of free drop-off collecting stations and roadside pickup.The glass is pulverized （粉碎），separated and recollected for use in varieties of projects.The sand and glass pieces are used for disaster prevention，coastal rebuild，eco-construction，and new glass products.
   Founders Trautmann and Steitz also hope their project will make people think that they have the power to work to protect the environment as individuals（个人）and as a community.Trautmann said， "We always hear， 'Oh，we can't do anything about global warming.We can't do anything about the environment.It's all the big companies and the government.It's up to them. 'But when you collect glass over one year，you will know individuals can do something.All those little things add up to something much bigger. "
   Glass Half Full's work is supported by a team of volunteers and crowdfunding efforts，making it truly a community effort.A successful one，too—in their very first year，they helped to recycle over 650，000 pounds of glass.

203596. （2025•交大附中•高一上期末）     When "irregardless" was included in Merriam-Webster dictionary，it caused wide disagreements. "Irregardless"has been in widespread and near-constant use since 1795，when a newspaper called The Charleston City Gazelle of Charleston Ga first used it."We do not make the English language，and we merely record it，"the dictionary's staff wrote in"Words of the Week".
    "The word's definition，when we read it，would seem to be without regard.However，Merriam-Webster defines 'irregardless' as 'nonstandard' but meaning the same as 'regardless.' According to Merriam-Webster， 'Many people find "irregardless" to be a ridiculous word，as the ir-prefix usually indicates a negative meaning；however，in this case，it appears to make the meaning of "regardless" stronger.'"
    "It's not a real word.I don't care what the dictionary says."responds author Michelle Ray，who teaches English in Silver Spring，Md.And she saye's still planning to mark"irregardless"as incorrect on her students' work.
    An American newspaper the Baltimore Sun published the word in editor John Melntyre's commentary on Saturday："Irregardless' is too a word；you just don't understand dictionaries.People get upset about the dictionary because they think it is some sort of official document.But actually，it's not.It's just lexicographers identifying words that people use and trying to find out how they are spelled，how they are pronounced，what meanings they have and where they came from."
    "The dictionary's recognition doesn't enroll a word as correct in the English language，"McIntyre says."It just says this is a word that a lot of people use in English.And here's what we know about it."So it's a word，but its use is still discouraged in formal writing.

（1）What's the function of the first paragraph？
A.To criticize the use of "irregardless".
B.To introduce the topic.

A. "Irregardless"had been in widespread and near-constant use before 1975.
B.The dictionary's staff rarely record the English language.
C.Michelle Ray thinks the use of"irregardless" formal but incorrect.
D.People are still not encouraged to use"irregardless"in formal writing.
（3）What is the attitude of McIntyre to the appearance of "irregardless"in Merriam-Webster dictionary？
A.Favorable.
B.Conservative.
C.Indifferent.
D.Ambiguous.
（4）Which of the following sentences best summarizes the main idea of the passage？
A."Irregardless"is frequently used in formal writing.
B."Irregardless"shouldn't be included in the dictionary.
C.Regardless of what you think，"irregardless"is a word.

205061. （2022•蓝田县•高一下期末） Hamburgers，French fries，potato chips，popcorn，and pizza.There is no denying these foods are tasty.But often，it's the added salt that makes them so appealing.One result：U.S.kids are eating too much salty fare.
   Table salt is about 40% sodium（钠）.Our bodies need some sodium to work properly.But too much of it is not healthy.
   A recent study by the Centers for Disease Control（CDC）looked at the eating habits of 2，142 children between the ages of 6 and 18.It found that their average sodium intake was 3，256 milligrams per day.That equals nearly 1.5 teaspoons each day，which is 50% more than current guidelines recommend.
   Zerleen Quader is the study's lead author. "Eating too much sodium now can set kids up for health problems later，" she said.
   Much of the sodium that kids eat comes from processed foods.But potato chips and other salty snacks aren't the only culprits.There are other sodium sources - like bread and cold cuts - adding to the salt overload.
   All this added salt can raise blood pressure and，with it，the risk of a heart attack and other health problems.Today，1 in 9 children has raised blood pressure.There's good news though.Lowering salt intake can lower blood pressure.
   That，of course，is easier said than done.The more salty foods you eat，the more you develop a taste for them.The key to changing your diet is to start small. "Small changes in sodium in foods are not usually noticed，" Quader says.Eventually，she adds，the effort will reset a kid's taste buds（味蕾）so the salt desires stop.
   Need a little inspiration？Dietitian Bridget Murphy advises focusing on the immediate effects of a diet that is high in sodium.High blood pressure can make it difficult to be active. "Do you want to be able to think clearly and perform well in school？" she asks. "If you're an athlete，do you want to run faster？" If you answered yes to these questions，then it's time to shake the salt habit.

（1）What did the recent CDC study find？
A．The present advised salt intake is too high.
B．Teenagers have good dietary habits.
C．American kids have too much salt.
D．Proper sodium intake benefits human health.
（2）Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word "culprits" in Paragraph 5？
A．Criminals.
B．Results.
C．Types.
D．Surprises.
（3）What is Quader's advice for kids？
A．Eat salt-free foods.
B．Have a low-sodium diet.
C．Keep away from junk food.
D．Take enough exercise regularly.
（4）According to Murphy，a salty diet will probably        .
A．help you have a quick mind
B．increase your running speed
C．make you relatively inactive
D．keep you hungry but spirited

212876. （2024•西安一中•高三下期中）     Ten years after Starbucks arrived in Vietnam，the outcome is clear：Vietnamese people love coffee，but they don't really seem to like Starbucks.
    Starbucks accounted for just 2% of Vietnam's ＄1.2 bn coffee-drinking market in 2022.It has 92 stores，which works out to less than one for every million people.
    Starbucks' presence remains limited due to the consumer preference for local coffee flavors.Vietnam，after all，is no stranger to coffee：It's the world's second largest exporter of coffee.For one thing，the Starbucks menu is not diverse.French settlers introduced coffee to Vietnam in the 19th century.But the first coffee plant was of the Arabica species and did not adapt well to the country's hot and humid climate and soil.Later，the French brought Robusta plants and that is the coffee popular in Vietnam today.97% of the coffee Vietnam consumes every year is of the Robusta variety.Starbucks，however，uses 100% Arabica beans.It might explain why even coffee drinkers who do go to Starbucks don't seem to love what's available.
    For another thing，the Starbuck's menu has none of the local favorites.Some local Vietnamese brands mix traditional Robusta coffee with egg yolk，yogurt，concentrated milk，ice and even fruit to attract new customers.However，in Starbucks chain stores，the Java chip frappucinos（可可碎片星冰乐） and pumpkin spiced lattes（南瓜丝绒拿铁） that have won elsewhere just don't seem to cut it here.
    The menu is by no means inexpensive for a competitive market like Vietnam，which is another reason why Vietnamese people hesitate to go to Starbucks.A medium-sized drink at Starbucks with non e of the add-ons costs about ＄3.6.That's out of reach for most in a country where the average monthly wage is only around ＄345.
    "I only went to Starbucks once，because I wanted to try the luxurious coffee.Starbucks coffee is nothing special tome.It's too fancy and I don't like the taste." Tram Nguyen says. "I can enjoy a quality coffee at a Vietnamese coffee shop at half the price."

（1）Why does the author give some figures in paragraph 2？
A．To show the large population of Vietnam.
B．To illustrate the slight failure of Starbucks in Vietnam.
C．To introduce the rapid development of Starbucks in Vietnam.
D．To prove the fact that the Vietnamese dislike coffee.
（2）How many reasons account for the fact that Vietnamese don't really seem to like Starbucks？
A．One.
B．Two.
C．Three.
D．Four.
（3）Which of the following might the Vietamese like？
A．Java chip frappucinos with ice.
B．Arabica beans with egg yolk.
C．Robusta coffee with yogurt.
D．Arabica coffee with concentrated milk.
（4）Which might be the best title for the text？
A．Starbucks Vietnam：failure to win over coffee-loving Vietnamese.
B．Starbucks Vietnam：less diversity than Vietnamese local coffee.
C．Vietnamese coffee：national pride for the Vietnamese.
D．Starbucks Vietnam：a model of global luxurious coffee.

213030. （2023•长安区一中•高二上期中）     One of the most curious features of the modern world is the manner in which design has been widely transformed into something meaningless.But I want to argue design should be the crucial block on which the human environment iaped and constructed for the betterment and delight of all.
    Not surprisingly，in the absence of widespread agreement about its significance and value，much confusion surrounds design practice.In some subject areas，authors can assume common ground with readers.Other subject areas can be so difficult that no such mutual understanding exists.
    Design sits uncomfortably between these two extremes.As a word it is common enough，but it is full of disharmony，has innumerable manifestations （表现），and lacks boundaries that give clarity and definition.As a practice，design generates vast quantities of material，much of it ephemeral，only a small proportion of which has sustained quality.
    So how can design be understood in a meaningful sense？Design is one of the basic characteristics of what it is to be human，and an essential determinant of the quality of human life.If things are a necessary part of our existence，why are they often done so badly？There is no simple answer.Cost factors are sometimes advanced，but the remove between doing something well or badly can be exceedingly small，and cost factors can in fact be reduced by appropriate design inputs.
    This book is based on a belief that design matters profoundly to us all in innumerable ways and represents an area of huge，underutilized potential in life.It sets out to explore some reasons why this is so and to suggest some possibilities of change.The intention is to extend the range of what is understood by the term，and examine the depth of design practice as it affects everyday life in a diversity of cultures.

（1）What is paragraph 2 of the text mainly about？
A．The causes of confusion.
B．The significance of design.
C．The differences in subjects.
D．The common ground in people.
（2）What does the underlined word "ephemeral" in Paragraph 3 mean？
A．Meaningful.
B．Enormous.
C．Short-lived.
D．Hard-wearing.
（3）What do we know about design？
A．Design is just about arts or trends.
B．Cost factors account for inadequate design.
C．The author argues that design is meaningless .
D．Very few are incapable of improvement by proper design.
（4）What is the book aimed at？
A．Reducing design inputs.
B．Persisting in meaningful design practices.
C．Denying previous conception of design.
D．Clarifying the confusion surrounding design.

202121. （2022•西安中学•二模） The new radio programme from self-help expert Glennon Doyle unexpectedly disturbed me.In a session of We Can Do Hard Things，she focuses on boundaries and their importance to our mental happiness.I heartily agree with her，because saying a polite but firm "no" is one of the basics for a happy life.I was，however，interested when she raised the idea that perhaps，as well as learning when to confirm our boundaries，we also need to stretch them.When does a boundary become a cage that locks us away？
   Isn't it always the case that just as you think you've got an area of life nailed；somebody comes along to show you that that's not the case？As I listened，I started to see boundaries that might cause more problems than they were solving.
   There was the work boundary that said that unless a project fell exactly into my topics，I wouldn't take it - which meant that I turned down work that was otherwise interesting and rewarding.
   There was the boundary that said I wasn't to buy anything until I'd reached my savings goal - which resulted in me having to restart my laptop 20 times a day.
   And then there was a boundary around relationships that set out exactly how I should be treated and what I wanted in them.Helpful to some extent，it blocked me from allowing someone to express their love for me，even if it wasn't quite what I had predicted.
   Had I been doing boundaries wrong all the time？Did I need to figure them all out again？I've spent the past few weeks looking at the boundaries I've secretly put in place，and I've let myself lower some that have been my protection over the years.Then I've come to the conclusion that，when it comes to boundaries，I'm a beginner again，and that's fine.In fact，being back at the beginning is a blessing because it means there are still lessons to be learned and adventures to be had and that is something for which I can only be grateful.

（1）What has really interested the author in Glennon Doyle's programme？
A．The importance of confirming our boundaries.
B．The benefits of boundaries to our happiness.
C．The urgency of maintaining our boundaries.
D．The necessity of reassessing our boundaries.
（2）What can be concluded as to the author's views on boundaries？
A．We should favour savings goals over boundaries.
B．Boundaries tend to keep us from potential friends.
C．Boundaries are very likely to relieve boredom at work.
D．We should stick to boundaries despite inconvenience.
（3）How did the author feel about boundaries after the adjustments？
A．Relaxed.
B．Depressed.
C．Pressured.
D．Amused.
（4）What is probably the best title for the passage？
A．Just when you think you've got things sorted...
B．Just where you believe there's no way out...
C．How can we live a life without boundaries？
D．How do we become victims of boundaries？

213249. （2023•交大附中•高二上期中） Many people confuse hard-working people with workaholics（工作狂）.How could a person tell that he/she is a workaholic？A workaholic works long hours，at the expense of personal relationships and health.When not working，they're thinking about work.Work influences their mood：when work is going well，they're up；when work is going less well，they're down.
   Working，or simply being busy，can be a hard habit to break.When workaholics aren't busy working—or doing something to promote their work—they feel anxious and guilty.They hang onto jobs for dear life and do everything they can to make sure they're essential.
   There is a link between health problems and workaholism.Just because work itself is a respectable pursuit（追求） doesn't mean that an addiction to it is any less damaging than other sorts of addictions.A number of studieow that workaholism has been associated with a wide range of health problems，such as anxiety and heart disease.
   Besides health problems，being a workaholic brings other negative effects as well.A study published in the American Journal of Family Therapy found that working too much negatively influenced an employee's marriage.This isn't surprising，since if you're married to your work，it can be difficult to be married to anything，or anyone，else.There have also been studies looking at the influence of workaholic parents on their children and the news isn't good.Adult children of workaholic fathers experienced more depression and anxiety and a weaker sense of self.
   However，there are also many positive aspects to working hard and to an increasing devotion to career.Hard work can bring great rewards.For many，it's how they develop feelings of self-worth and confidence and purpose.If you have a workaholic in your life，you might point out the things he or she is missing out on while at work，whether it's a child's soccer game，a good book，or a yoga class.Seek to understand why the person feels the need to work so much and support them in finding a solution.
