高一七选五14篇（附详细答案）

What is the difference between happy people and unhappy people? 36 Read the following list of things that HAPPY people do differently from UNHAPPY people and you will know.

Well, I can tell you for sure that those people who are really happy, FEAR less and LOVE a lot more. They see each moment, each challenge, each person as an opportunity to discover more about themselves and the world around them. 37

Happy people understand that you can’t really change a situation by resisting（反抗）it. But they can feel better by understanding that there might be a reason for its existence（存在）. 38 But rather, they ask themselves questions like: What can I learn from this? How can I make this better? They always seem to be pleasant and hopeful no matter what happens to them.

They do the things they do because of the meaning it brings into their lives and because they get a sense of purpose by doing so.

39 They care more about living a life full of meaning rather than, what in our modern society we would call, living a successful life. The fact here is that most of the time they get both, success and meaning, just because they choose to focus on doing the things they love the most.

40 They make sure that their actions bring meaning and happiness in the lives of many. They look for ways to give and to share the best of themselves with the world and to make other people happy.

A. They have an ideal living and a balanced life.

B. What are the things that these people do differently?

C. They are kind to themselves and others and they understand the power of love. D. The things happy people do are not for themselves, but for the good of others. E. They are ready to embrace whatever lies in front of them.

F. They understand that “Doing what you love is the most important for living a full life”.

G. When something unpleasant happens to them, they don’t try to fight it, knowing that this will make the situation even worse.

Two hundred years after Charles Darwin’s birth, studies have found new details of his life at the University of Cambridge. Six leather-bound ledgers (皮革账本) discovered in the university show this. 36

He lived in the most expensive rooms provided for a rich student at his time. 37 He had someone to clean his room, make his bed and take care of the fire in his bright rooms. He hired a dishwasher, a clothes washer and a man who cleaned his shoes. A tailor (裁缝), hatter and barber made sure he was well presented. A chimney cleaner and a coalman kept his fire going. Christ’s College’s basic food was meat and beer. 38

Darwin’s bill topped 636 pounds during his three years of study at Cambridge. Later he described this time as the most joyful of his happy life. That large sum (金额) would have been fairly common for a student at Cambridge in the 19th century.

39 In those days Cambridge was full of rich students living a pretty good life and Darwin was

just one of them. 40 And thus he had plenty of time for socializing or private study. He would be out shooting, collecting beetles, doing his scientific hobbies or visiting friends. He played cards and drank wine at night, just like students always have.

A. Thanks to the richness, he was able to hire servants to help with the daily life. B. The findings were published on the Internet.

C. So he paid five and a half pence extra each day to have vegetables.

D. He enjoyed the kind of comfortable university life that most of today’s students can only dream about.

E. He had several people to help him to deal with the daily housework.

F. When you look at the ledgers, you can find there were many rich students in Cambridge. G. The bills were paid by his wealthy father, Robert Darwin, a doctor.

Khalid Mohsin Shaeri, a Saudi man, has been unable to leave his bedroom for the past two and a half years. 36 His situation drew the attention of Saudi Arabia’s King Abdullah and he showed great concern about him. Six months ago, he asked for Khalid to be taken to the hospital. 37 Finally on Monday the 20-year-old patient was successfully taken to King Fahd Medical City in Riyadh after the Saudi King arranged（安排） for his special air transportation from the southern city of Jazan. Saudi government organizations worked with Shaeri’s construction department to accomplish this task.

38 A forklift（铲车）was also used to carry him to an ambulance（救护车） which took him to a local airport in Jazan. An aircraft then flew him to Riyadh.

“We have been waiting for this moment for a long time.

39 “ Naser Makke, the patient’s cousin, told Reuters excitedly. “The King had given his orders to the government of health to do all the arrangements to transfer the patient for treatment in a safe way. May God protect our King and give him the long life. ”

According to Reuters, Shaeri was reported to have a brother and sister who are also overweight. 40

Local media reported that the Saudi Health Ministry has already dealt with other over-weight patients this year, including two sisters who weighed 661 pounds and 771 pounds. A. But compared to Shaeri, what makes them better is that they are able to walk.

B. He had been in hospitals for several times but that didn’t save him from getting fatter. C. His weight, 610 kilograms, made him unable to move and forced him to stay in bed. D. Part of his home was broken down so he could be brought down from the second floor.

E. And I do hope he can lose some weight and can walk and can look after himself after the treatment.

F. But treatment had to wait until a special medical bed was made for him in the United States. G. His family had a traditional fat disease and his parents were also very fat.

Have you ever had a wonderful idea and thought it would make a great invention, but didn’t

know what to do next? 36 They will help you make your dreams come true and become a famous inventor.

The first thing that you should do is do some research on the Internet to see if anyone else has invented it. If not, you should search through the US Patent (专利) information to see if a patent was ever created for your type of invention. 37

The easiest thing to do is working with a company that can help you to make your dreams a reality. It can help you present your ideas and get your product to the right companies. One company that is very reputable (声誉好的) is “Lambert and Lambert in Minnesota”. 38 If they think your product is marketable (有销路的), they will help you to get it to the right company.

Call the company and make an appointment. You will want to bring in a model of your invention and a complete description of your ideas. 39 Then when you meet with them, you can present it and they will tell you how marketable it is. If they decide to help you, they will work to present it to different companies and help you to go to the next step.

Once your invention has been sold to a large company, get ready to get the benefits of becoming the next great inventor.

40 But the benefits are worth the wait. A. It may take a year or two. B. You will be the next inventor.

C. Write down exactly about your invention. D. If there is no patent, go to the next step. E. You will find something new on the Internet. F. Here are some steps that you can take. G. They offer free advice for good ideas.

In spite of so many years of education behind us, can we confidently say we understand what it feels like to be a teacher?

The biggest misunderstanding about teaching jobs is that anyone can be a teacher. In fact, the truth is far from it. 36 They also know the teaching theory well. They should know how things should be taught and how one can be inspired to learn. Also, they need to have an idea about classroom management and students’ psychology（心理学）.

Now it can be really annoying for a teacher if someone says teaching is one of the easiest jobs around, because everyone just needs to be taught for a few hours a day. 37 However, teachers work longer to come up with ways to make the knowledge appear more interesting to students and help them learn better.

38 And this is a big reason why more people decide to choose teaching as a career. However, good teachers choose to make good use of the break, by enrolling(注册) themselves for workshops on teaching, classroom management, and related things.

All teachers are not the same, as against what is widely believed. 39 Every teacher is different and has a different approach（方法） to teaching.

40 A teacher has meetings to attend, and is responsible for(对??负责) organizing school events. An important duty of a teacher is to prepare the progress report of each student and

discuss it with his or her parents.

In a word, teachers ought to be respected for what they do, and we should never forget their great contribution（贡献） to our success in life.

A. A teacher has many things to do rather than just teach. B. It is true that teachers get a lot more holidays than others.

C. A good teacher is one who motivates students to overcome challenges.

D. To begin with, teachers are people who perform well in their fields of study. E. A statement that is true for one teacher is not necessarily true for the others.

F. And common people even believe teachers are probably overpaid when their days end at 3 pm. G. These teachers give all they can to create an ideal learning environment for their students.

What is happiness? Maybe you often forget it. Here are some happiness habits you always forget.

You forget to breathe consciously (有意识地). Most yoga courses today talk about meditation (冥想). 36 Go out and find a natural spot. Inhale (吸气) deeply, and then exhale. Repeat this 10 times and watch how you lighten up your mood. It can help people feel calm.

You forget to smile at people around you. Smiling is not just a happiness supporter for you but for others. In fact, the more you smile at people, the more they are eager to help you. 37 And it brings so much positive energy that you’ll need to make great friends.

You forget to say thank you. 38 It is also about your overall feelings and imagination: of being thankful for little things that you receive. Feel good, be thankful and you’ll be always happy. So don’t forget to express your thanks to others.

You forget to taste your experiences. Do you always hurry with what you are doing? 39 Or do you always think that there’s not enough for you to enjoy? Take some time to enjoy the taste of the food you are eating, or the comfort of the chair you are sitting on.

40 You surf the Internet, watch TV, and go to work. You are so caught up with all these things that you have forgotten to spend some quiet time. Take a moment to sit down, and do nothing — feeling the silence and being happy. A. You forget to stretch (伸展) like a cat. B. You forget to stay quiet for a while.

C. And they all share the same basic instruction: breathe.

D. Do you always feel that you’re running out of time or money? E. Saying thank you is not just about appreciating someone who did you a favor. F. Have you ever paid more attention to your study?

G. That’s because smiling breaks the ice between strangers.

Living away from your country can be a really interesting and unforgettable experience. But at the same time it has very important effects（影响） on your life. 36

The major effect, and also a very common one, is that once you start a regular life away from home, you miss everything.

37 Little things like sitting on a Sunday morning watching TV alone instead of having a nice chat with your mom make you realize how valuable your family really is.

38 Since you are living in a place with different customs and traditions from yours, you have to be able to develop yourself in conditions which you are not familiar with. This means making new friends, accepting different opinions, and catching every opportunity you have to go to new places.

The most significant effect of living away from home is the independence that grows inside you. 39 There is no one else to go to school, clean your room, and wash your clothes. Being independent will help you get over many difficulties.

40 You have to remember that all changes are difficult, but it is necessary to go through them to build your character and it helps you appreciate everything you have. A. Bad things don’t last forever and you have to make the best out of them.

B. Missing your family and the attention they all paid to you is a very usual thing to do.

C. Living far from home, even for a short period of time, can be really hard at the beginning. D. Living on your own far from your family gives you a lot of experience of organizing your life. E. The purpose of this passage is to discuss the three main effects that living in another country can influence your personal life.

F. Foreign people are kind to you and your classmates and they understand the power of love.

G. Living in a foreign country would mean learning how to accept another type of society and culture into your daily life.

Having a shy style isn’t necessarily a problem. It’s perfectly OK to take time to warm up new people and situations. Here are some tips for beating shy feelings.

Start small with people you know. Practice social behaviors like eye contact, confident body language, introductions, small talk, asking questions, and invitations with the people you feel most comfortable around. Smile. Build your confidence this way. 36 .

Think of some conversation starters. 37 . Think of conversation openers, like introducing yourself, giving a compliment, or asking a question. Being ready with a conversation starter (or a few) makes it easier to approach someone.

Rehearse(排练) what to say. 38 . Rehearse it out loud, maybe even in front of the mirror. Then just do it. Don’t worry if it’s not exactly like you have practiced or if it’s not perfect. Also few of the things confident people do are perfect. Next time, it’ll be better because it will be easier.

39 . Find group activities where you can be with people who share your interests. Give yourself a chance to practice socializing (社交) with these new people, and get to know them slowly. People who are shy often worry about failing or how others will think about them. So treat yourself like your own best friend. Encourage yourself instead of expecting to fail.

Most of all, be yourself. It’s OK to try out different conversational ways you see others use. 40 . Being the real you and daring to let yourself be noticed are what attract friends. A. It’s important to make friends.

B. Then try to do this with new friends, too.

C. Give yourself a chance to take part in activities.

D. Write down what you want to say beforehand.

E. Often, the hardest part of talking to someone new is getting started. F. But say and do what fits your style. G. Shyness is an obvious shortcoming.

We often carry a lot of things when we’re traveling. 36 On long ones we carry things like passports, visas, etc. Though traveling can be fun, we’re likely to misplace these things and even lose them because of the excitement of the journey or being too busy or tired. So how can we carry valuable things safely while traveling?

37 Place most of it in a wallet and put the wallet in your main suitcase or bag with a lock-and-key system. Don’t open it until you reach your destination (目的地). Guess how much money you’ll need on the journey, and place this money in a different wallet and carry this in your pocket. 38

Next, instead of wearing your jewelry, you can carry your jewelry at the bottom of your suitcase or bag. 39 Many people think that since the purse is always going to be in their hands, it’ll remain safe. But other things like tickets, phone numbers, keys, etc., are all going to go in there. So you’re often going to open your purse for something or the other. What if you just drop it?

Then remember to hook (钩住) the keys. You get those really nice key chains these days that come with a big dog-hook.

40 Use one of these to carry your keys. This way, you won’t leave the keys in a restaurant or any other place.

Hope all the above tips for traveling will help you. A. So you’ll know what to bring.

B. It’s a kind of vacation, but without your parents.

C. Spend money from this wallet till you get to your destination. D. Firstly, distribute (分开) your money if you’re traveling alone. E. You can hook the key chain to your jeans or your handbag.

F. On short trips we take things like money, jewelry (首饰), house keys, etc.

G. Don’t carry it in your purse, just in case somebody is quick in stealing your purse.

36 . You may be comfortable reading a particular part but make an effort to read different articles on every page. The editorial (社论的) page is highly recommended not only for vocabulary but also for structuring and presenting thoughts. And there are different articles in the newspaper every day.

Use the Internet. The Internet is an unlimited (无限制的) resource for reading material. 40 . You will come across plenty of material to read, which you might find interesting, and important. The Internet will also introduce you to new words. Be sure to look them up in a dictionary.

How to become a better reader

Language and literacy(读写能力) are among humans’ greatest inventions. Evolving（演变） over the course of human history, languages are a reflection of our cultural and societal attitudes. Today, surrounded（包围） by social media, television, movies, and, of course, books, the ability to read and write is important to expressing one’s feelings. Most humans acquire language in early childhood and speak fluently when they are about three years old, but our continued relationship with language gives shape and meaning to our lives. 36

(1) Take it slow. Many readers feel that they read too slowly, especially compared with others. 37 The best readers are flexible（灵活的） — slowing down when needed — and always have a dictionary at hand.

(2) Read aloud. When humans first began reading written words, it was unusual to read in silence. 38 Try listening to the author reading their own work — you’ll be surprised to find how clearly it comes through on the page.

(3) Write. Writing and reading go hand-in-hand: how and what you read affects how and what you write, and the best readers often make the best writers. But while much can be learned from close, repeated readings, there are many pleasures to language that can only be experienced through the practice of writing. 39

(4) Tell your friends. All of the literature is essentially communication from an individual’s inner voice to an audience. 40 It’s a good way to see the world from someone else’s eyes and, in the process, carefully examine your own reaction to what you’re reading.

A. But the truth is that the faster you read, the less likely you are to understand fully what you’re reading.

B. Can you remember the first piece of writing that transported you to another world? C. There is something magical about sharing books with friends or a book club.

D. Try writing every day for a month, and you will never read the same again. E. Reading out loud is one of the best ways to improve your reading ability. F. Here are 4 ways to become a better reader.

G. In no time, you’ll be appreciating novels like fine wine.

12

Do you know how to pick a good book you’ll really like? Here are some tips.

Start With Your Interest. 36 . You can pick something that you love to read, not for school. They can be ancient martial (武术) arts, computers, or fashion design. You name it, there are books about it.

What’s Your Type? Do you prefer fiction or nonfiction (or both)? Fiction books, like novels, can transport you to another world or help you imagine something beyond your own experience. Nonfiction books give you the who, what, when, and why of something. 37 . Many of them read like novels from start to finish.

Read the description. The reviews and quotes on the back and inside covers of many books give you an idea of what the book is about. They can also help you pick future books, too. If you find a book you really like, take a minute to read the quotes and see which authors praised the book. 38 .

Find a Family Favorite. Which book did your mother love best when she was at your age? 39 . Find out and give them a read — then you can share your thoughts about the book.

Finally, you’ll probably enjoy what you’re reading a lot more if you find a quiet place and make time for the book. 40 . You can put on some good music, get yourself some tea and let yourself be carried away by the book. You’ll see that time does fly when you’re reading something you love!

A. How about your brothers and sisters?

B. They tell stories using facts — but that doesn’t mean they’re boring. C. Reading is a good way to improve your English.

D. Most reading is best enjoyed when you can concentrate (全神贯注) on it.

E. Often, they’ll have similar styles and you might find books you like by those authors, too. F. So you should read as much as possible when you are free. G. Reading on your own isn’t like reading for school.

13

Many kids go to day camps during summer. Day camps can be a lot of fun, but the activities are familiar. 36 It might take you a little while to get familiar with the place. But you come home every night, just like you do during the school year.

Sleepaway camp offers more excitement because you’ll be there all day and night. It’s a kind of vacation, but without your parents. You’ll probably sleep in a tent（帐篷） with other kids attending the camp. Your parents should not worry about your food. 37 Some sleepaway camps are for both boys and girls, which means that there are both boys and girls at the camp. 38 Often these all-girl and all-boy camps meet up for some special purposes.

Usually, the camp mails out information to your family before you go. 39 Most of all,

you’ll also probably need to bring a health report. Let coaches know about any health problem you have. Just like any vacation, you’ll need to pack a bag full of the clothes. 40 Food is generally provided, but you might need some extra money for snacks or other small expenses(费用).

A. So you’ll know what to bring.

B. You’ll learn how to get along with others. C. You couldn’t miss your parents at night.

D. You’ll need to change clothes while you’re there. E. Other camps are just for girls or just for boys.

F. You start camp in the morning and go home in the afternoon.

G. You’ll probably eat together in the open air and you’ll have to share the food with the other kids.

14

When you’re dealing with a stressful situation or going through a hard time, people in your life can help you. When someone who cares knows what you’re going through, it helps you feel understood and not so alone. 36 . Problems seem smaller when you talk about them with the right person. You can do better and find out solutions more easily when you share your problems.

There are lots of different ways to get and give help. 37 . Other times you need advice on things. Help can be very easy, like a homework project. Or it can go on for a while, like teaching to bring up a failing grade or advising to get through a difficult personal situation.

It’s likely you remember times someone helped you. 38 . Friends helped you get through sadness or deal with disappointment. Teachers might have guided you through the college application process (大学申请). 39 . You might give a hand to your classmate who met difficulty.

Friends, parents, teachers and other adults can be great resources when you need help. There are also times when you need the extra help that a professional can provide best. Doctors can offer specialized help for a health problem. 40 . A. Parents taught you to stop a bad habit.

B. Sometimes you just want to hear an encouraging word. C. Turn to the professional people for help when you need. D. Difficulties are everywhere in your life.

E. And you can also remember times when you helped others. F. Having a right person means a lot.

G. You need to learn to give help in the right way.
