高考壓軸沖刺練 四限時40分鐘. 閱讀理解A study has claimed that 3D films exercise the brain and improve short-term functioning in a similar way to brain-training tests.The research was led by neuroscientist Professor Patrick Fagan from Goldsmiths University in London. More than 100 people took part in the experiment, where participants watched Disney film Big Hero 6 in either standard format or RealD 3D. They also carried out a brain-training-style test before and after seeing a part from the film. The test covered memory, reaction times and cognitive(認知)function, and the results were subsequently compared. According to the research, participants experienced a 23 percent increase in cognitive skills, as well as an 11 percent increase in reaction times.Professor Fagan said that the results showed enough of an improvement in brain function to suggest that 3D could play a part in improving brain power in the future. “It is a fact that people are living longer and there is a noticeable decline in cognitive brain function in old age which can impair future quality of life. There has never been a better time to look at ways to improve brain function. The initial results of this study indicate that 3D films may potentially play a role in slowing this decline, ”he said.A second part of the experiment involved those watching the film with headsets that scanned brain activity and this too showed heightened activity when watching 3D. Professor Brendan Walker from Thrill Laboratory agreed with it. “Watching in 3D gives the viewer such an enriched and quality experience, as these results show, ”he said. “In evolutionary terms, the results of both parts of the test certainly make sense, ”Professor Fagan added.As Professor Brendan Walkers test concluded, 3D films are more immersive, and heighten the sensesthis, in turn, makes the brain run at quicker speeds.【文章大意】本文屬于說明文, 主要介紹了3D電影可以鍛煉大腦, 使人變得更聰明。1.

She would always use her left hand, twisted and shocking. But that was only at the beginning of their relationship. After six months the missing digit became something like a comfort to Jameshed notice its absence in his hand and feel loved. It was something he couldnt explain to anyone else, and that made him love the missing finger even more. It was a secret between them both.There was, however, a certain thing James couldnt ask about. He wasnt sure how she lost her finger. It was the only unspeakable topic in the relationship. It didnt bother him very much. He wasnt a curious person. Hed occasionally slip and begin to ask, but mostly caught himself. When he didnt, shed get quiet in company or angry in private. Hed let her storm away and wait for the broken comb of her hand to run through his hair in apology.They broke up over a mistake. His mistake. Amy started an argument over who should do the dishes, and he lost despite his best effort to point out the number of hours he worked. In his anger, he stabbed a fork into the wall. Amy didnt say anything; she didnt even look upset, just confused. When he pulled the fork out, two prongs(叉齒)stayed in the wall, so he threw it into the trash.She was still staring, and he felt awkward and ashamed. He told her the prongs were in the wall, and the fork was now useless. What good would a two-pronged fork be for anyone?There wasnt any talking after that. She simply packed a backpack and went to her mothers. The next day Amys brother and father came by to collect the rest of her clothing and books. Neither of them looked mad, though James couldnt figure out if they were truly uninterested or if silent anger was a family characteristic.He painted over the marks on the kitchen wall a week later, but left the prongs in the wall. He fished the fork out of the trash and kept it in the silverware drawer, underneath the utensiltray. Hed take it out occasionally. Running his finger into the rough gap of the missing pieces, hed try to feel what wasnt there any more.【文章大意】這是一篇英語故事閱讀。Amy失去了左手的小手指, 但仍然愛著James。有一次兩個人發(fā)生了激烈的爭吵, James的行為深深地傷害了Amy的心, 讓Amy決定離開他。6.

How to deal with listening practiceB. Class atmosphere matters a lot in learningC. Monitoring activities is one of the main tasks of teachersD. How to evaluate student performanceE. Group work needs organizing properlyF. Communication skills play a big role in language learningBoth instructors and learners can get benefits from the following learning strategies as long as they are properly made use of in language learning.1. _. The information presented in this section focuses on specific conversation, discussion, or presentation skills. The activities are generally self-explanatory, with students expressing opinions, making decisions, solving problems, planning presentations, and so on. Engaged in these activities, students have the possibility of communicating with each other in class. This section also includes lists of expressions used to illustrate different language functions, such as agreeing, disagreeing, and asking for clarity in order to help students expand their knowledge of English.2. _. In a speaking or listening course, students anxieties can affect their learning. For this reason, it is important to establish a friendly, relaxed classroom environment. It may help students think of the classroom as a laboratory where they can experiment and take risks with the language. In such circumstances, students should realize that errors are a natural and expected part of learning a language. In addition, one of the goals of this plan is to encourage students to examine their own opinions and values while at the same time showing respect for the opinions and values of others.3. _. Many of the activities in this section involve the studentscooperating work in class. Generally, such an activity taken up by four members seems to work the best. Groups of three or five members may also be effective, depending on the activity. The first unit includes guidelines for organizing group work, with students taking on the following roles: leader, reader, summarizer, reporter, and observer(if necessary). Organizing all activities in this way makes the course truly learner-centered since students must take full responsibility for carrying out each activity. As for seating, group members should arrange their seats or chairs in a small circle to encourage interaction.4. _. Being a teacher, in the course of group activities, you should circulate from group to group, which helps ensure that students are on task and are using English. While you should not participate in pair or group activities, you need to stay involved in what the students are doing. One important reason to circulate during activities is to keep track of the kinds of problems students have, such as grammatical accuracy, fluency, word choice, pronunciation and intonation discussion strategies, etc. However, it is generally not effective to correct studentserrors when they are involved in an activity. The most practical way to deal with communication problems is to make notes of what you observed as you are circulating. You can then use this information to provide feedback after the activity or to develop future lessons.5. _. At the beginning of the course, when they need to build up their confidence, students benefit most from encouragements and positive comments. If possible, youd rather not grade the students first few efforts at speaking in a group or to the class. Many students suffer such anxiety in speaking situations that any criticism at this stage can have the opposite effects. Commenting on students work does not necessarily mean grading them on the scene. Even if the programs require formal grades, you should try to put off assigning grades until later in the term.【文章大意】本文敘述了語言學(xué)習(xí)的一些策略。1. 【解析】選F。根據(jù)Engaged in these activities, students have the possibility of communicating with each other in class. 通過參與這些活動, 學(xué)生們有了在課堂上相互交流的可能性。從中可知交流技巧在語言學(xué)習(xí)中扮演著重要的角色。故選F。2. 【解析】選B。根據(jù). . . it is important to establish a friendly, relaxed classroom environment. 可知學(xué)習(xí)氛圍對于語言學(xué)習(xí)也很重要。故選B。3. 【解析】選E。根據(jù)Organizing all activities in this way makes the course truly learner-centered since students must take full responsibility for carrying out each activity. 以這種方式組織所有的活動使得課堂以學(xué)習(xí)者為中心, 因為學(xué)生們必須負責(zé)執(zhí)行各自的活動。所以小組活動要組織得井然有序。故選E。4. 【解析】選C。根據(jù)Being a teacher, in the course of group activities, you should circulate from group to group, which helps ensure that students are on task and are using English. 可知教師的職責(zé)就是巡視各組, 幫助確保學(xué)生在做任務(wù)和使用英語。所以監(jiān)管各組活動是教師的主要任務(wù)之一。故選C。5. 【解析】選D。根據(jù)At the beginning of the course, when they need to build up their confidence, students benefit most from encouragements and positive comments. 可知鼓勵和積極的評價能增強學(xué)生的信心, 可推斷是在講如何對學(xué)生的表現(xiàn)作評價。故選D。. 短文改錯下面短文中有10處語言錯誤。請在有錯誤的地方增加、刪除或修改某個單詞。增加: 在缺詞處加一個漏字符號(), 并在其下面寫上該加的詞。刪除: 把多余的詞用斜線()畫掉。修改: 在錯的詞下畫一橫線, 并在該詞下面寫上修改后的詞。注意: 1. 每處錯誤及其修改均僅限一詞;2. 只允許修改10處, 多者(從第11處起)不計分。Last week our class voted on what to do for our class outing: visiting the West Lake or going to the Zoo. Our girls wanted to go to the West Lake, and since we were in the minority, we lose to the boys, who all wanted to go to the Zoo. We got the admission rate for students, which was greatly since I still had enough money to buy a brochure about the park as well as anything at the souvenir shops. The animals were scary but really amusing. As we were taking the pictures, we could see the eye of many creatures looked out at us. Most of the animals there sleep when it is sunlight and wake up at night.答案:Last week our class voted on what to do for our class outing: visiting the WestforLake or going to the Zoo.
