203320. （2016•西工大附中•七模） Andy Steele lives just a few blocks from the campus of Black Hills State University in Spearfish，S．D．，so commuting（经常往返） to class isn't the problem．But he doesn't like lectures much，isn't a morning person，and wants time during the day to restore motorcycles．
So Steele，a full-time senior business major，has been taking as many classes as he can from the South Dakota State system's online offerings．He gets better grades and learns more，he says，and insists he isn't missing out on the college experience．
"I still know a lot of people from my first two years living on campus，and I still meet a lot of people，"he says．But now，he sets his own schedule．
At least 2.3 million people took some kind of online courses，according to a recent survey by the Sloan Consortium，an online education group，and two-thirds of colleges offering"face-to-face"courses also offer online ones．But what were once two different types of classes are looking more and more alike and often falling into the same pool of students．
At some schools，online courses originally intended for non-traditional students living far from campus have proved surprisingly popular with on-campus students．A recent study found 42 percent of the students enrolled in its distance education courses were located on campus at the university that was hosting the online courses．
Numbers vary depending on the policies of particular colleges，but other schools also have students mixing and matching online and"face-to-face"credits．Motives range from lifestyle to adapting to a job schedule to getting into high-demand courses．
Washington State had about 325 on-campus undergraduates taking one or more distance courses last year．As many as 9，000 students took both distance and in-person classes at Arizona State last year．
"Business is really about providing choices to their customers，and that's really what we want to do，"said Sheila Aaker，extended services coordinator （协调人） at Black Hills State．
Many schools，such as Washington State and Arizona State，let departments and academic units decide who can take an online course．They say students with legitimate academic needs-a conflict with another class，a course they need to graduate that is full-often get permission，though they still must take some key classes in person．
（1）What is the purpose of the passage？
A．To introduce Steele to us，who prefers online courses．
B．To tell us about the development of campus courses．
C．To show the differences between campus courses and online courses．
D．To show more on-campus students are taking online courses．
（2）We can learn from the passage that Andy Steele ．

A．lives far from the campus	B．knows none of his classmates
C．wants to have his own lifestyle D．doesn't get good marks

（3）Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage？
A．The undergraduates attend the online courses for different purposes．
B．It is expected that distance education is popular with on-campus students．
C．About 325 on-campus undergraduates took online courses in Washington last year．
D．Different colleges have different policies about online courses．
（4）From what Sheila Aaker said in the passage，we can tell ．
A．business is the most popular major in universities

203131. （2016•师大附中•二模） While Jennifer was at home taking an online exam for her business law class，a monitor（监控器）a few hundred miles away was watching her every move．
   Using a web camera equipped in Jennifer's Los Angeles apartment，the monitor in Phoenix tracked how frequently her eyes moved from the computer screen and listened for the secret sounds of a possible helper in the room．Her Internet access was locked-remotely-to prevent Internet searches，and her typing style was analyzed to make sure she was who she said she was：Did she enter her student number at the same speed ae had in the past？Or wae slowing down？
   In the battle against cheating，this is the cutting edge and a key to encourage honesty in the booming field of online education．The technology gives trust to the entire system，to the institution and to online education in general．Only with solid measures against cheating，experts say，can Internet universitieow that their exams and diplomas are valid-that students haven't just searched the Internet to get the right answers．
   Although online classes have existed for more than a decade，the concern over cheating has become sharper in the last year with the growth of "open online courses．" Private colleges，public universities and corporations are jumping into the online education field，spending millions of dollars to attract potential students，while also taking steps to help guarantee honesty at a distance．
   Aside from the web cameras，a number of other high-tech methods are becoming increasingly popular．Among them are programs that check students' identities using personal information，such as the telephone numbers they once used．
   Other programs can produce unique exams by drawing on a large list of questions and can recognize possible cheaters by analyzing whether difficult test questions are answered at the same speed as easy ones．As in many university classes，term papers are scanned against some large Internet data banks for cheating．

（1）Why was Jennifer watched in an online exam？
A．To correct her typing mistakes．
B．To find her secrets in the room．
C．To keep her from dishonest behaviors．
D．To prevent her from slowing down．

202482. （2021•西安中学•二模） Honeybees can't swim，and when their wings are wet，they can't fly，either.But Chris Roh and other researchers at the California Institute of Technology found that when bees drop into bodies of water，they can use their wings to produce little waves and slide toward land-like surfers（冲浪者）who create and then ride their own waves.
   As with many scientific advances-Isaac Newton's apple or Benjamin Franklin's lightning bolt-Dr.Roh's experiment began with a walk.Passing Caltech's Millikan Pond in 2016，he observed a bee on the water's surface producing waves.He wondered how an insect known for flight could push itself through water.
   Dr.Roh and his co-worker，Morteza Gharib，used butterfly nets to collect local Pasadena honeybees and observed their surf-like movements.The researchers used a wire to restrict each bee's bodily movement，allowing close examination of their wings.They found that the bee bends its wings at a 30-degree angle，pulling up water and producing a forward force.Bees get trapped on the surface because water is roughly three times heavier than air.But that weight helps to push the bee forward when its wings move quickly up and down.It's a tough exercise for the bees，which the researchers guess could handle about 10 minutes of the activity.
   The researchers said the surf-like movement hasn't been documented in other insects and most semiaquatic（半水生的） insects use their legs for propulsion，which is known as water-walking.It may have evolved in bees，they predicted.
   Dr.Roh and Dr.Gharib have imagined many practical applications for bees' surfing.One plan is to use their observations to design robots able to travel across sky and sea."This could be useful for search and rescues，or for getting samples of the surface of the ocean，if you can't send a boat or helicopter，" Dr.Gharib said.

（1）What does the author intend to show by mentioning Newton and Franklin？
A．Roh's admiration for them.
B．Roh's chance discovery about bees.
C．Their outstanding talent for science.
D．Their similar achievements in discovery.
（2）What plays the most vital role in a bee's moving forward on water？
A．The air weight.
B．Its leg extension.
C．The water movement.
D．Its continuous wingbeat.
（3）What does the underlined word "propulsion" in Paragraph 4 mean？
A．Fast flight.
B．Driving force.
C．Pulling speed.
D．Explosive power.
（4）According to the last Paragraph，which of the following isn't the practical applications for bees' surfing？
A．Designing robots with the ability to travel across both sky and sea.
B．Rescuing ships or saving sailors trapped in the ocean.
C．Acquiring knowledge of moving samples of the surface of the ocean.
D．Making helicopters in the shape of bees.
（5）What does the text mainly tell us？
A．Honeybees can surf to safety.
B．Bees help scientists make inventions.
C．Insects can adapt to the environment.
D．Nature is a helpful guide for discovery.

202387. （2021•西安中学•十模） A competition making up Versailles literature was launched on Sina Weibo recently.So what is Versailles literature？
   Actually，the term has nothing to do with the French palace nor with literature.It came from The Rose of Versailles，a Japanese manga series about aristocratic（贵族化的）life at the palace of Versailles in France in the late 18th century，and was coined by a Chinese influencer earlier this year.Known as humblebragging，it is a boast（吹牛）disguised as a complaint. "I have too many houses.How can I decide which one to decorate？" and "I thought I lost weight this morning.So disappointed when I realized it was because I took off the huge diamond ring my boyfriend gave me last night" are some examples of Versailles literature.The intention is to show off - usually things of materialistic values，yet one ought to pretend that's not the point.
   As the 19th century English author Jane Austen famously wrote，"Nothing is more deceitful（欺诈的）than the appearance of humility（谦逊）." The psychology behind humblebragging is to be recognized for one's successes and be liked by others at the same time，according to scholars.In her article titled Why do people hate humblebragging？published in Psychology Today，psychologist Dr.Susan Krauss Whitbourne at the University of Massachusetts Amherst noted that humblebragging is a "strategy in pursuit of respect" because it draws attention to one's accomplishments in a circuitous way.
   However，studies on social media userow that humblebragging as a self-promotion strategy does not work.In the essay Humblebragging：A distinct and ineffective self-presentation strategy，the University of North Carolina researcher Ovul Sezer and Harvard University scholars Francesca Gino and Michael Norton concluded from their research that humblebraggers are perceived more negatively than straight braggers due to the former's insincerity. "The critical factor differentiating the two groups of people is sincerity.People don't like braggers，but they at least see them as more sincere than humblebraggers，" said Francesca Gino.
   So，how can we annoy humblebraggers back？ "Just pretend you don't get whatever it is they try to show off，" a netizen advised. "And respond with genuine sympathy for their complaints."

（1）Which of the following statements is typical of "Versailles literature"？
A．You know who my father is？My father is Li Gang.
B．Got five offers to date.I'm at a loss which to choose.
C．It's a headache how to make my son tidy up his room regularly.
D．I'm fed up with living in the countryside with no shopping malls around.
（2）What is the psychology behind humblebragging？
A．To win others' sympathy.
B．To earn others' admiration.
C．To show his/her sincerity.
D．To mask his/her complaint.
（3）What does the underlined world "circuitous" in Paragraph 3 probably mean？
A．Roundabout.
B．Straightforward.
C．Ambiguous.
D．Double-edged.
（4）What can't be inferred from the passage？
A．Braggers are relatively more sincere than humblebraggers.
B．Humblebragging is an artificial appearance of being humble.
C．To respond with real sympathy will discourage humblebraggers.
D．If you want to be perceived positively，avoid using Versailles literature.

202919. （2018•交大附中•六模） Bees seem to fly aimlessly as they search for the sugary liquid called nectar（花蜜）．But their flight plans actually do have a pattern．Flowers act as the insects' air-traffic controllers．And new research shows bees prefer flowers that aren't too flashy．
   Flowers give bees clues about how much a plant can offer．Those clues can be in the color of petals，in the type，in the smell or even in the electrical charge．All of these characteristics send signals to the bees，telling them whether to land or not，among which the colors play the most significant role．The insects keep track of the color of the flowers that are especially rich in nectar．They then visit more flowers of that color．
   However，color can't guarantee bees a good meal．It may change depending on the angle at which sunlight hits its petals．A yellow follower，for example，may look somewhat blue from one angle and red from another．Beverley Glover studies plants at the University of Cambridge in England．Glover and her colleagueowed that even when the color of petals looks similar，bees behave differently in searching for nectar．They started to guess that the strength of petals' indescence（色彩斑斓） might be related to how bees find the petals．
   Glover and her colleagues tested their hypothesis in the lab．In their experiment，they found that bees felt confused sometimes when the petals were very iridescent and that bees had no problem finding the flowers with more nectar when the petals were not very iridescent．The team shared its new findings in the March 21 Current Biology．
   "At first glance，it's very surprising because animals can usually detect a more vivid signal more easily，" says Klaus Lunau，a biologist in Germany，who was not involved in the study．

（1）What can we know about the flight of bees？
A．They usually fly in a regular pattern．
B．They usually fly without any purpose．
C．They fly to some very flashy flowers．
D．They fly under the direction of flowers．
（2）What is the most important clue for bees to search for nectar？
A．The petals' type．
B．The petals' color．
C．The followers' smell．
D．The followers' electrical charge．
（3）What does the underlined word "hypothesis" in Paragraph 4 probably mean？
A．Discussion．
B．Method．
C．Invention．
D．Assumption．
（4）What is the new finding of the team？
A．Petals of different color usually give different signals．
B．Petals that are vivid are detected by bees more easily．
C．Petals that are not very flashy are better for bees to make adjustments．
D．Petals of different types make bees confused to find the right flower．

202937. （2017•师大附中•十一模） Many people write to newspaper and magazines to express their opinions．Letters to the editor must carry the writer's full name，address and telephone number，although the information is not necessary for publication．This requirement to provide personal particulars is a clear indication that writers are held responsible for what they say．When a writer wants his voice heard，he needs to claim ownership of his voice．Responsibility is the name of the game．
  "People today prefer living together to putting their signatures on a marriage certificate because they refuse to accept responsibility for the relationship，" said social worker Ken Yip， "and this is what is causing a lot of family problems．" When we sign a paper，for example，a business contract or a bank document，the signature is a seal of consent，an agreement to take the matter seriously．Most governments and many organizations will not process written complaints if they do not bear the writer's signature．The absence of a signature，they explain，tells us that the writer cannot be too serious and therefore does not deserve a reply．
   There are people who wish to remain anonymous（匿名的）for various reasons．Multi-billionaire Mr．King donates generously to charity several times a year．He gives simply because he wants to help but not for the publicity his donations may bring，and he does not want his good deeds to make news．In other cases，people insist on anonymity because they are afraid of the consequences of revealing their identity．Crime witnesses may be willing to assist the police，but most are unwilling to give their names when reporting a crime．
   Name or no name？The answer is very personal and lies in how much we want to get involved．We all have a name．It is a matter of responsibility to use it when we make a statement，a claim or an accusation．We all want to honour our own name，and it is only by stamping our expression of an opinion with our own name that we honour what we say．

（1）What does the writer mean by saying "Responsibility is the name of the game"？
A．Writers need to provide their personal information in the game．
B．Publication must bear the writer's full name，address and phone number．
C．Writerould be responsible for their names．
D．Names are required to indicate writers' responsibility for what they say．
（2）The second paragraph suggests that a paper without a signature may       ．
A．help to end a relationship
B．not get a reply
C．be accepted all the same
D．become a family problem
（3）Some people don't want their names known because they are       ．
A．hesitant to make a donation
B．unwilling to draw public attention
C．afraid of an accusation
D．ready for involvement
（4）The passage is mainly about       ．

202957. （2017•师大附中•七模） Body awareness helps children figure out how they can move their bodies and understand the concept of space and how it relates to their bodies．There are many fun games and songs that teach children body awareness and encourage them to move their bodies．Simon Says is a great example of such games，as long as you allow all children to continue playing instead of removing children who do not follow the directions correctly．Children who do not follow the directions correctly are generally the very ones that need to play the game most．Each time you call out an instruction - touch your toes/raise your arms/tap your head，the children are mentally relating the name of the body part to their own bodies．
   Do you remember the game Statue，or maybe you call it Freeze？The teacher plays music，and when the music stops，the children "freeze"．To add an element of learning about body parts，add this instruction：When the music stops，you freeze except for the body part that I call out when the music stops；So if you call "Hands"，everyone should freeze except for their hands，which should be moving．Children love this variation of the game，and it teaches them to listen and learn body parts．
   Listening to songs also helps teach children's body awareness．One of the songs is If You're Happy and You Know It．Although the standard refrains （副歌曲调） tell you to "clap your hands" and " stamp your feet"，you can try lots of fun verses：wiggle your fingers，pull your ears，knock your knees and touch your head，etc．
   Children enjoy guessing games，too．Try giving clues about which body part you are describing．For example， "I am thinking about a body part that I smell with．It is right under my eyes and right over my mouth．What am I thinking about？" To help thinking and language skills，encourage children to make up the clues for a body part．
   Children should enter school with a basic understanding of their bodies．Children programs can promote this understanding by including develop - mentally appropriate and fun activities into curriculum that teach children about their amazing bodies!

（1）The reason why children who do not follow the directions correctly is that they        ．
A．are not clever enough
B．can' t pay attention well
C．have good body awareness
D．lack body awareness
（2）Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage？
A．Statue or Freeze can add element of learning about body parts．
B．Simon Says helps children relate names to their body parts easily．
C．Listening to songs can only help children move their hands and feet．
D．Guessing games is a good way for children to make up clues for body parts．
（3）Which of the following games could possibly be beneficial to thinking and speaking？
A．Listening to songs．
B．Guessing games．
C．Simon Says．
D．Statue or Freeze．
（4）The author's purpose in writing the passage is to tell us        ．
A．why body awareness is important for children．
B．which game is best for children's -body awareness
C．how we can help children learn before going to school
D．what activities are good for children's body awareness

202873. （2018•西安中学•六模） A comparison of nesting data recorded in the early 1900s with similar data today for more than200 species of California birdows that overall they are breeding（*1）5 to 12 days earlier than they did 75 to 100 years ago
Earlier studies found that many but not all birds in California's mountains are moving north or to higher altitude to find cooler temperatures in the face of global warming． "The shift to earlier breeding that we detected allows birds to nest at similar temperatures as they did a century ago，and helps explain why half the bird species in the mountainous areas of California did not need to shift upward in altitude in response to climate warming over the past century，said Steven Beissinger，a UC Berkeley professor of environmental sciences．
Early spring arrivals have long been noted by the public and reported by scientists，but the assumption has been that the birds are tracking resources，primarily food：with warming temperatures．plants produce leaves and seeds earlier，and insects appear earlier．
The new study spotlights another major reason：by nesting a week earlier，birds produce eggs and young at a temperature about I degree Celsius lower than if they nested at the normal time in the same place．This exactly counterbalances （抵消） the approximately I degree Celsius increase in global temperatures over the past century．
"By nesting a week or 10 days earlier．birds are avoiding some of the negative effects of climate warming． " Beissinger said． "The good news is that there may be more flexibility for species to respond to climate change than we thought，and not all species may need to move farther north or to higher altitudes．" he added． "But we don't know yet whether staying in place and shifting schedules earlier is a permanent solution，or only provides temporary relief from the 2 degree Celsius rise in temperatures forecast to occur．
Birds may find，for example，that the window of good temperatures for breeding becomeorter．which may limit the opportunity to re-nest if they fail the first time．Larger species that have a longer nesting period might not have an enough time to complete their nests before it starts to become too warm，he said．

（1）To fight against the global warming．earlier studies found that
A．some birds tried to find cooler places
B．some birds failed to nest more than ever
C．some birds began to produce eggs earlier
D．some birds woke up earlier to catch insects
（2）What can we infer from the passage？
A．Early birds catch insects and get tender leaves
B．Global warming is responsible for earlier springs
C．Birds are smart in adapting to the climate changes
D．Birds are likely to have difficulty in breeding ways
（3）What is mainly talked about in the passage
A．Birds' moving north and global warming．
B．Early breeding of birds and climate changes．
C．Changes of birds' life and early spring arrivals．
D．Birds，reaction and early appearance of foods．
（4）What's Steve Beissinger's attitude to the finding according to the passage？
A．Disappointed
B．Panic
C．Relieved
D．Flexible

203168. （2016•西安中学•四模） Meeting people from another culture can be difficult．From the beginning，people may send the wrong signal．Or they may pay no attention to signals from another person who is trying to develop a relationship．
   Different cultures emphasize the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree．For example，business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust．Even with people at work，it is necessary to spend a lot of time in "small talk"，usually over a glass of tea，before they do any job．In many European countries - like the UK or France - people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or café's rather than at the office．
   Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures．I once made a speech in Thailand．I had expected my speech to be a success and start a lively discussion；instead there was an uncomfortable silence．The people present just stared at me and smiled．
   After getting to know their ways better，I realized that they thought I was talking too much．In my own culture，we express meaning mainly through words，but people there sometimes feel too many words are unnecessary．
   Even within Northern Europe，cultural differences can cause serious problems．
   Certainly，English and German cultureare similar values；however，Germans prefer to get down to business more quickly．We think that they are rude．In fact，this is just because one culture starts discussions and makes decisions more quickly．
   People from different parts of the world have different values，and sometimes these values are quite against each other．However，if we can understand them better，a multicultural environment will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other．

（1）In some countries，eating together at restaurants may make it easier for people to        ．

203169. （2016•西安中学•四模） We live in a digital world now，and a student's technology needs have changed．For the early years，say when you are in primary school，you can get by with no technology at all．
   Even if you have a computer，it's a good idea to get children familiar with libraries．At this age，trips to the library are like family outings．

203303. （2016•西工大附中•十模） If you never read the classic F．Scott Fitzgerald's novel The Great Gatsby，now is your chance to catch up-by watching the latest film adaptation．Because if there's one sentence to sum up the film，it would be，as Fox News says in its review，"It's just like the book"．
Director Baz Luhrmann's main challenge was"either to find a visual equivalent（相等物） for Fitzgerald's elegant essay--the open secret of the book's staying power--or to bend the material to his own exotic（异国的） strengths，"a Time magazine review says．He tries it both ways，with varying degrees of success．
Considered to be Fitzgerald's representative work，The Great Gatsby explores themes of idealism，resistance to change，social change，and excess，creating a portrait of the Jazz Age or the Roaring Twenties that has been described as a cautionary tale regarding the American Dream．
Nick，the narrator，moves to New York for the summer to visit his cousin Daisy．His next-door neighbor is Jay Gatsby （Leonardo DiCaprio），who rarely contacts with others and is rumored to be a hero of the Great War．Gatsby claims to have attended Oxford University，but the evidence is suspect．As Nick learns more about Gatsby，every detail about him seems questionable，except his love for Daisy．Though Daisy is married，Gatsby still adores her as his"golden girl．"They first met when she was a young lady from a wealthy family and he was a working-class military officer．Daisy promised to wait for his return from the war．However，she married Tom，a classmate of Nick．Having obtained a great fortune，Gatsby sets out to win her back again．
"All of Fitzgerald's original creation finds its way into this film，even going as far as to include quite a bit of the original dialogue，"US film critic Justin Taroli writes in his review．"The cast is beautiful as is the script，and the scenes are a visual feast，"Taroli adds．
DiCaprio does a good and professional job as the socialite by recreating Fitzgerald's description of Gatsby's charm．"He can look at someone for an instant and understand how perfectly he or she wants to be seen，"David Denby，a film critic for The New Yorker，says in his review．
The use of music is almost reason enough to see the film．"Luhrmann is at his best mixing visual and musical styles together to create something wholly original，"the Fox News review says．
For example，in one of the most outstanding scenes in the film，the first party scene，Nick walks quickly from one party guest to another party guest trying to explain all the gossip about Gatsby until he is finally introduced to the man himself，while the most stirring version of Rhapsody in Blue （composed by American musician George Gershwin in 1924）is played in the background．
（1）What did Baz Luhrmann do to make the film a success？
A．He adapted the story in the novel as he wished．
B．He made the film more powerful than the book．
C．He mixed his style with the elegance of the essay．
D．He showed the elegance of the pictures in the film．
（2）What is Taroli's attitude towards the film？
A．Favorable．
B．Sceptical．
C．Amazed．
D．Unconcerned．
（3）What are the characteristics of Gatsby？
A．Faithful and warm-hearted．
B．Charming and professional．
C．Selfish and stubborn．
D．Mysterious and devoted．
（4）Why does the author give the example of the first party scene in the last paragraph？
A．Unfold the fact that Nick wants to know more about Gatsby．
B．Show the version of Rhapsody in Blue matches the film well．
C．Prove that the director is good at combining visual and music．
D．Convince us that the first scene is perfectly shot by the director．
