發(fā)布：2025/1/1 17:0:1組卷：34引用：2難度：0.7252．閱讀下面材料，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開頭語續(xù)寫一段，使之構(gòu)成一篇完整的短文。
Lee took a deep breath and let it out slowly.When his lungs felt comfortable，he dived beneath the water.Looking up，he could see the bright sun shining on the water's surface. "Soon，" Lee thought， "I shall be able to hold my breath as long as David.Then I，too，shall be able to dive for pearls. "
With lungs burning，he quickly surfaced and gasped（喘氣） for breath.Lee was small for his twelve years，and he hated being treated as a child.David，his old brother，had been looked upon as a man long before he was Lee's age.
Now，every day as the sun warmed the bay，David and the other young men went out to dive for oysters （牡蠣）.With luck，there would be pearls in many of them.Many times Lee begged to go along，but David always refused.
So every day Lee would go to the shallow water to practice.With each day's effort，his diving improved and he felt much at home in the water. "Tomorrow I shall challenge David." Lee decided.The next morning，Lee rose early，hurrying to catch up with David，who was already on the beach. "David，wait!" called Lee.
The group of men around David grew quiet.Lee continued， "David，I say that I can hold my breath under the water as long as you can.If I win，I ask only that you treat me as a man and let me dive by your side."
The men of the village gasped（倒抽氣） and began to laugh.David looked amused， "And what if when you lose？"
"I will not lose!" He took a breath， "But if I should，I promise not to ask to go with you for a full year!The men of the village are here to judge."
Hearing this，David looked surprised.

But with all of his friends looking on，David had no choice but to agree.____________發(fā)布：2025/1/1 17:0:1組卷：2引用：3難度：0.4253．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 application 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 learn the words，you "water your plants"．When the application believes that you've really memorized a word，it moves the word to your "garden"．And if you forget to log on，the application sends you emails，reminding you to "water your plants"．
The application uses two principles about learning．The first is that people memorize 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 （汽車旅館） 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 application 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．

D．Combine study with entertainment．
（2）What are you doing when you "water your plants"？
A．Logging on to the application．
B．Being a Memrise user．
C．Practising the vocabulary．
D．Moving words to 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．Doubtful．
B．Positive．
C．Uninterested．
D．Negative．發(fā)布：2025/1/1 17:0:1組卷：3引用：2難度：0.2254．When I was a boy growing up in New Jersey in the 1960s，we had a milkman delivering milk to our doorstep.His name was Mr.Basille.He wore a white cap and drove a white truck.As a 5-year-old boy，I couldn't take my eyes off the coin changer fixed to his belt.He noticed this one day during a delivery and gave me a quarter out of his coin changer.
Of course，he delivered more than milk.There was cheese，eggs and so on.If we needed to change our order，my mother would pen a note — "Please add a bottle of buttermilk next delivery" — and place it in the box along with the empty bottles.And then，the buttermilk would magically （魔術(shù)般）appear.
All of this was about more than convenience.There existed a close relationship between families and their milkmen.Mr.Basille even had a key to our house，for those times when it was so cold outside that we put the box indoors，so that the milk wouldn't freeze.And I remember Mr.Basille from time to time taking a break at our kitchen table，having a cup of tea and telling stories about his delivery.
There is sadly no home milk delivery today.Big companies allowed the production of cheaper milk，thus making it difficult for milkmen to compete.Besides，milk is for sale everywhere，and it may just not have been practical to have a delivery service.
Recently，an old milk box in the countryside I saw brought back my childhood memories.I took it home and planted it on the back porch（門廊）.Every so often my son's friends will ask what it is.So I start telling stories of my boyhood，and of the milkman who brought us friendship along with his milk.
（1）Mr.Basille gave the boy a quarter out of his coin changer to.
A．show his magical power
B．pay for the delivery
C．satisfy his curiosity
D．please his mother
（2）What can be inferred from the fact that the milkman had the key to the boy's house？
A．He wanted to have tea there.
B．He was a respectable person.
C．He was treated as a family member.
D．He was fully trusted by the family.
（3）Why does home milk delivery no longer exist？
A．Nobody wants to be a milkman now.
B．It has been driven out of the market.
C．Its service is getting poor.
D．It is not allowed by law.
（4）Why did the author bring back home an old milk box？
A．He missed the good old days.
B．He wanted to tell interesting stories.
C．He needed it for his milk bottles.
D．He planted flowers in it.發(fā)布：2025/1/1 17:0:1組卷：7引用：3難度：0.5255．With her attention __________ on the book，the girl sat there quietly.（ ?。?/h2>
發(fā)布：2025/1/1 17:0:1組卷：44引用：2難度：0.9256．The curb cut （下斜路緣）.It's a convenience that most of us rarely，if ever，notice.Yet，without it，daily life might be a lot harder—in more ways than one.Pushing a baby stroller onto the curb，skateboarding onto a sidewalk or taking a full grocery cart from the sidewalk to your car—all these tasks are easier because of the curb cut.
But it was created with a different purpose in mind.
It's hard to imagine today，but back in the 1970s，most sidewalks in the United States ended with a sharp drop-off.That was a big deal for people in wheelchairs because there were no ramps （斜坡） to help them move along city blocks without assistance.According to one disability rights leader，a six-inch curb "might as well have been Mount Everest".So，activists from Berkeley，California，who also needed wheelchairs，organized a campaign to create tiny ramps at intersections to help people dependent on wheels move up and down curbs independently.
I think about the "curb cut effect" a lot when working on issues around health equity （公平）.The first time I even heard about the curb cut was in a 2017 Stanford Social Innovation Review piece by PolicyLink CEO Angela Blackwell.Blackwell rightly noted that many people see equity "as a zero-sum game." Basically，that there is a "prejudiced societal suspicion that intentionally supporting one group hurts another." What the curb cut effect shows though，Blackwell said，is that "when society creates the circumstances that allow those who have been left behind to participate and contribute fully，everyone wins."
There are multiple examples of this principle at work.For example，investing in policies that create more living-wage jobs or increase the availability of affordable housing certainly benefits people in communities that have limited options.But，the action also empowers those people with opportunities for better health and the means to become contributing members of society—and that benefits everyone.Even the football huddle （圍成一團(tuán)以秘密商討） was initially created to help deaf football players at Gallaudet College keep their game plans secret from opponents who could have read their sign language.Today，it's used by every team to shield the opponent from learning about game-winning strategies.
So，next time you cross the street，or roll your suitcase through a crosswalk or ride your bike directly onto a sidewalk—think about how much the curb cut，that change in design that broke down walls of exclusion for one group of people at a disadvantage，has helped not just that group，but all of us.
（1）By "might as well have been Mount Everest" （paragraph 3），the disability rights leader implies that a six-inch curb may become.
A．a(chǎn)s famous as the world's highest mountain
B．a(chǎn)n almost impassable barrier
C．a(chǎn) connection between people
D．a(chǎn) most unforgettable matter
（2）According to Angela Blackwell，many people believe that.
A．it's fair to give the disadvantaged more help than others
B．it's impossible to have everyone be treated equally
C．it's necessary to go all out to help the disabled
D．it's not worthwhile to promote health equity
（3）Which of the following examples best illustrates the "curb cut effect" principle？
A．Spaceflight designs are applied to life on earth.
B．Four great inventions of China spread to the west.
C．Christopher Columbus discovered the new world.
D．Classic literature got translated into many languages.
（4）What conclusion can be drawn from the passage？
A．Everyday items are originally invented for people with disabilities.
B．Everyone in a society should pursue what is in his or her interest.
C．A disability rights leader changed the life of his fellow men.
D．Caring for disadvantaged groups may finally benefit all.發(fā)布：2025/1/1 17:0:1組卷：8引用：3難度：0.3257．Facial expressions carry meaning that is determined by situations and relationships.For example，in American culture （文化） the smile is in general an expression of pleasure.Yet it also has other uses.A woman's smile at a police officer does not carry the same meaning as the smile she gives to a young child.A smile may show love or poljye.aieness.It can also hide true feelings.It often causes confusion （困惑） across cultures.For example，many people in Russia consider smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even improper.Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places （although this is less common in big cities）.Some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places；some Americans believe that Russians don't smile enough.In Southeast Asian cultures，a smile is frequently used to cover painful feelings.Vietnamese people may tell a sad story but end the story with a smile.
Our faces show emotions （情感），but we should not attempt to "read" people from another culture as we would "read" someone from our own culture.The fact that members of one culture do not express their emotions as openly as do members of another does not mean that they do not experience emotions.
Rather，there are cultural differences in the amount of facial expressions permitted.For example，in public and in formal situations many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do.When with friends，Japanese and Americans seem to show their emotions similarly.
It is difficult to generalize about Americans and facial expressiveness because of personal and cultural differences in the United States.People from certain cultural backgrounds in the United States seem to be more facially expressive than ojye.airs.The key is to try not to judge people whose ways of showing emotion are djye.aiferent.If we judge according to our own cultural habits，we may make the mistake of "reading" the other person incorrectly.
（1）What does the smile usually mean in America？
A．Love.
B．Politeness.
C．Joy.
D．Thankfulness.
（2）The author mentions the smile of the Vietnamese to prove that smile can.
A．show friendliness to strangers
B．be used to hide true feelings
C．be used in the wrong places
D．show personal habits
（3）What should we do before attempting（嘗試） to "read" people？
A．Learn about their relations with others.
B．Understand their cultural backgrounds.
C．Find out about their past experience.
D．Figure out what they will do next.
（4）What would be the best title for the test？
A．Cultural Differences
B．Smiles and Relationship
C．Facial Expressiveness
D．Habits and Emotions發(fā)布：2025/1/1 17:0:1組卷：4引用：3難度：0.6258．How to Learn from Your Regrets Regret's benefits don't come to us by chance.（1）
.Here are three steps you can take the next time you find yourself thinking carefully about your past missteps.
Kill the ghost（鬼魂）.
People often say their regrets keep coming to their mind.This suggests that regret is like a ghost.Bring your ghost out of the shadows by making a list of your regrets.Write down why each one still bothers you and its bad effects.（2）.
Forgive yourself.
（3），but sometimes you just can't stop blaming yourself.Perhaps you dropped out of school decades ago and are constantly calculating today how much money you would be making if you had pressed on to graduation.Now is the time to declare："I will not waste my life reliving a decision that cannot be changed."
Collect your diploma.
Regret is like a school run by human nature.If you never experienced regret，you would keep repeating the same behaviors that led you to miss opportunities. （4）.Next，list all the ways that you can invest in your own skills and improvement right now — and get started.
Regrets may hurt.（5），while trying to live without them is a lost opportunity to grow.Life is a journey full of pleasures and pains.To live it well and fully means learning from every bit of it，including the mistakes，and moving forward.
A.After you make a mistake，life moves on
B.Filling your mind with them is destructive
C.The ghost certainly doesn't rule a person's life
D.We have to seek them out on purpose to improve ourselves
E.You will find that a list is a lot less frightening than a ghost
F.You choose a life sentence for a poor decision you made in the past
G.If you let regret teach，you can note how you want to change your behavior發(fā)布：2025/1/1 17:0:1組卷：3引用：5難度：0.4259．Most vegetables we buy in winter are planted in the ________.（ ）
