A note written to an Iowa radio station is getting worldwide attention.

The radio station has an annual tradition where listeners send in“wish letters,”and the hosts select a handful of wishes to broadcast.They've been making Christmas dreams come true for more than 20 years,but they have never received a letter quite like this.

Last week,the hosts of Des Moines radio station Star 102.5 invited listener David Schmitz to their annual Christmas show,but the station didn't tell Schmitz who had sent in the wish for his family.

They read this letter to him on the air:“Hello,my name is Brenda Schmitz,when you receive this letter,I will have already lost my battle to cancer.”

The letter was dated August 3,2011.Brenda Schmitz passed away less than two months after she wrote it.But Brenda Schmitz had given this note to a friend,with instructions on when to mail it.

The letter said:“I told her once my loving husband David had moved on in his life,and met someone to share his life with again,to mail this letter to all of you at the station.”

David Schmitz recently met and fell in love with Jayne Abraham.He asked her to marry him this September.

Brenda Schmitz had three wishes for the family she left behind,their four sons,as well as the new family David Schmitz was starting.She wrote,“I was hoping that one small act you all could do for me could change their lives forever,and they know I am with them always.”

The first wish was to David Schmitz's new partner.The letter said:“An impressive weekend.Make her smile,.Thank you,I love you whoever you are.”

Her second wish was to David Schmitz and their children.She wrote,“For my family,a wonderful trip.Somewhere where they all can enjoy their companionship as a family and make memories that will be with them forever.”

Lastly,Brenda Schmitz wanted to give a night of food and fun to the hospital staff that cared for her during her final days.

【创新设计】2015高考英语(浙江专用)大二轮总复习仿真模拟卷一]

It was a letter David Schmitz wasn't expecting to receive,but one that didn't surprise him either.He said,“She had great foresight(远见).But afterwards,quite touching.”

And as a part of her final wishes,Brenda Schmitz left a separate letter to David Schmitz's new wife.

Jayne said,“The biggest thing was that at the end of the letter,she said,‘I love you.’And that was the hardest,most pleasant thing that I received.”

Brenda Schmitz ended the letter with this:“May God bless and keep all of you safe there,thanks for this.When you wish upon a star,Brenda.”

A number of local businesses tried to make her wishes come true.They raised money,and will be sending the family to Disney World.

According to The Daily Telegraph in London,the year 2014 is a year worth expecting,because a lot of amazing inventions and new technology are coming into our life.

■Faster Online Deliveries

In this age of instant satisfaction,waiting days for Internet purchases to arrive seems very annoying.So,in 2014,Amazon and eBay will be stepping up their efforts to deliver goods on the same day they're bought,even if that day's a Sunday.Eventually,Amazon founder Jeff Bezos is testing unmanned delivery to bring products to our doors within half an hour.In the meantime,he's increasing his number of goods and cooperating with express companies to get us what we want as quickly as possible.

■The Swiss Army Knife Of Credit Cards

According to a recent survey,one in five consumers in America no longer carry any cash on them.In 2014,they won't need their plastic payment cards either.A San Francisco company—Coin has invented a device(装置) the same size as a credit card that holds the information of up to eight credit,membership,gift cards.Customers press a button to choose which one they want and then just use their Coin in the usual way.And if you lose your Coin?The card is connected to your smart phone and when the two are separated your phone receives an official notice.In other words:you can't leave home(or a shop,or a restaurant)without it.

■Trip To Mars

At present,if you feel like making the 54-million-mile trip to Mars,it would take you nine months.That's around 39 weeks dealing with all kinds of difficulties during the trip.But VASIMR could change all that.Set to be tested aboard the International Space Station in late 2014 to early 2015,the Variable Specific Impulse Magnetoplasma Rocket is an experimental engine that,if it works,could get us there in three months.VASIMR takes a tiny bit of propellant(推进燃料),heats it to very high temperatures (2,000,000 ℃) using radio waves,and then pushes it out at extremely high speeds.The result is a steady,continuous increase in speed,using far less fuel.

【创新设计】2015高考英语(浙江专用)大二轮总复习仿真模拟卷一]

■Formula E Racing

If you think the atmosphere at a Formula 1 Grand Prix is electric,you're going to love the new motor sport starting.Formula E will see drivers racing around city-centre roads—including London—in battery(电池)-powered electric cars.The new championship,which is backed by the FIA,motor racing's governing body,promises cars as sexy as those driven by Lewis Hamilton,Sebastian Vettel et al,but with batteries and electric motors.While their top speed is expected to be 155mph,slower than Formula 1,the event will be made up for with exciting street circles and night events.The stops will be different too:with the batteries running out after 20 minutes,drivers won't just change their tires;they'll jump into new cars.The season is scheduled to start on September 13 in Beijing,with further races in the streets of Rio de Janeiro,Berlin and Los Angeles,before the final event in the centre of London on June 27,2015.

■More Transparent Shopping

With more people focusing on health,knowing where your product has been made or grown,and its way to market,has taken on a new importance.

Provenance()—a new type of search engine invented in January 2014 attempts to help us.From chocolate bars to jackets to shoes to chef's knives Provenance tells you where a product is made,who the maker is and what the product is made from.Provenance includes vivid personal stories from farmers,workers,craftspeople and so on.The site works in cooperation with everyone from small producers to large companies in the hope that,by simply taking the mystery out of supply chains and worldwide commerce,the site will help shoppers make better choices as well as gently force companies to improve their environmental and social influence.

【语篇导读】 英国《每日电报讯》报道,2014年将是值得期待的一年,因为很多惊人的发明和科学技术将会进入人们的生活。让我们看看都是哪些发明吧。

C

It has been said that“Happiness is like a butterfly which,when run after,is always beyond our grasp,but which,if you sit down quietly,may dance beside you.”

Social scientists have caught the butterfly.After 40 years of research,they find happiness results from three major origins:genes(基因),events and values.Armed with this knowledge and a few simple rules,we can improve our lives and the lives of those around us.We can even construct a system that carries out our founders' promises and gives Americans the power to seek happiness.

Scientists have studied happiness for decades.They begin simply enough—by asking people how happy they are.

The data available to social scientists is the University of Chicago's General Social Survey,a survey of Americans conducted since 1972.The numbers on happiness from the survey are surprisingly similar.Every other year for four decades,about a third of Americans have said they're “very happy” and about half report being “pretty happy.”Only about 10 to 15 percent typically say they're “not too happy.”Scientists have used advanced techniques to check these responses,and such survey results have proved accurate.

Beneath these averages are some differences.For many years,researchers found that women were happier than men,although recent studies show that the gap has narrowed or may even have changed to the opposite.Politicians might be interested to learn that traditional women feel particularly happy:about 40 percent say they are very happy.That makes them slightly happier than traditional men and obviously happier than open-minded women.The unhappiest of all are open-

【创新设计】2015高考英语(浙江专用)大二轮总复习仿真模拟卷一]

minded men;only about a fifth consider themselves very happy.

But even the people of the same age,sex,and so on vary in their happiness.What explains this? The first answer involves our genes.Researchers at the University of Minnesota have tracked twins who were separated as babies and raised by separate families.These researchers found that we receive a surprising part of our happiness—around 48 percent from parents.(Since I discovered this,I've been blaming my parents for my bad moods.)

If about half of our happiness is determined by our genes,what about the other half?It's attractive to suppose that one-time events—like getting a dream job or receive an unexpected gift—will permanently bring the happiness we seek.And studies suggest that such events do control a big part of our happiness—up to 40 percent.

But while one-time events do govern a fair amount of our happiness,each event's influence proves rather short-lived.People suppose that major changes like moving to California or getting a big raise will make them permanently better off.They won't.Huge goals may take years of hard work to meet,and the struggle itself may be worthwhile,a few months.

To review:About half of happiness is genetically determined.Up to an additional 40 percent comes from the things that have occurred in our recent past—but that won't last very long.

That leaves just about 12 percent.That might not sound like much,but the good news is that we can bring that 12 percent under our control.It turns out that choosing to seek four basic values of faith,family,community and work is the surest path to happiness, given that a certain percentage is genetic and not under our control in any way.To go after the happiness within our reach,we do best to devote ourselves to faith,family,community and meaningful work.

【语篇导读】 本文是一篇说明文。研究人员经过40年的研究发现三种因素可带来幸福感,即基因,事件和价值观。

50.The first paragraph of the passage serves as ________.

A.a description of a scene

B.an introduction to the topic

For 28 years,three months,and 12 days,I drove a New York City taxi.Now,if you were to ask me what I had for breakfast yesterday,I probably couldn't tell you.But the memory of one fare is so vivid.I'll remember it all my days in this world.

It was a sunny Monday morning in the spring of 1966.I was looking for a customer down York Avenue.I had stopped at a light just opposite New York Hospital when I spied a well-dressed man dashing down the hospital steps.Finally,the man reached the taxi and jumped in.“LaGuardia Airport,please,”he said.

As always,I wondered about my passenger.Was this guy a talker,a shut-up,a newspaper

【创新设计】2015高考英语(浙江专用)大二轮总复习仿真模拟卷一]

reader?After a few moments,he started a conversation.It began ordinarily enough:“How do you like driving a taxi?” and I gave him my stock answer.“It's OK,”I said.“I make a living and meet interesting people sometimes.But if I could get a job making $100 a week more,I'd take it—just like you would.”

His reply aroused my interest.“I would not change jobs if it meant I had to take a cut of a hundred a week.”

I'd never heard anyone say such a thing.“What do you do?”

“I'm in the neurology department(神经内科)at New York Hospital.”

Maybe it was that this fellow clearly loved his work;maybe it was just the pleasant mood of a spring morning.But I decided to ask for his help.We were not far from the airport now,so I went ahead.

“Could I ask a big favor of you?”He didn't answer.“I have a son,15,a good kid.He's doing well in school.We'd like him to go to camp this summer,but he wants a job.”I paused.“Is there any possibility that you might get him some kind of a summer job—even if he doesn't get paid?”

He still wasn't talking,and I was starting to feel foolish for bringing up the subject.Finally,he said,“Well,the medical students have a summer research project.Maybe he could fit in.Have him send me his school record.”

He fished around in his pocket for a card but couldn't find one.“Do you have any paper?”he asked.

I tore off a piece of my brown lunch bag,and he wrote down something and paid me.It was the last time I ever saw him.

That evening,sitting around the dining room table with my family,I pulled the paper from my shirt pocket.“Robbie,”I announced proudly,“this could be a summer job for you.”He read it out loud:“Fred Plum.N.Y.Hosp.”

My wife:“Is he a doctor?”

My daughter:“Is he an apple?”

My son:“Is this a joke?”

After I warned to cut off his pocket money,Robbie sent off his grades the next morning.The fruit jokes continued for a few days,but gradually the incident was forgotten.

Two weeks later,when I arrived home from work,my son was smiling wildly.He handed me a letter addressed to him.The letterhead read“Fred Plum,MD,Neurologist-in-Chief,New York Hospital.”He was to call Dr.Plum's secretary for an interview.

Robbie got the job.The white lab coat he wore made him feel a lot more important than he really was as he followed Dr.Plum around the hospital,doing small tasks for him.

The following summer,Robbie worked at the hospital again,but this time,he was given more responsibility.As high school graduation neared,Dr.Plum was kind enough to write letters of recommendation for college.Much to our delight,Robbie was accepted at Brown University.

He worked at the hospital for a third summer and gradually developed a love of the medical profession.As college graduation approached,Robbie applied to medical school,and Dr.Plum again wrote letters proving his ability and character.

Robbie was admitted to New York Medical College and,after getting his medical degree,did a four-year practice specializing in OB-GYN.

Dr.Robert Stern,the son of a taxi driver,became OB-GYN chief physician at Columbia-

Presbyterian Medical Center.

Some might call it fate,and I guess it was.But it shows you that big chances can come out of ordinary meetings—even something as ordinary as a taxi ride.

B.Try different ways

D.Track your progress

E.Treat it as a long battle

F.Have confidence in yourself

A new chapter is now opening in your life.But while so many people like you desire to achieve ambitious goals,only 12% of you will ever experience the taste of victory.Sound bad?It is 156 million people(that's 156,000,000)will probably give up on their plan halfway.Keep on reading to learn why your plans fail and how to succeed.

Note:Since losing weight is the most common plan,I chose to focus on weight loss(but these principles can be applied to just about any goal you think of—make it work for you!).

61.________

Slow and steady habit change might not be sexy,but it's a lot more effective than the“I want it ALL and I want it NOW!”mentality.Small changes stick better because they aren't frightening(if you do it right,you'll barely even notice them!).

If you have a lot of bad habits today,the last thing you need to do is remodel your entire life overnight.Want to lose weight?Stop it with the crash diets and unreasonable exercise plans.Instead of following a strictly controlled plan that bans anything fun,add one positive habit per week.For example,you could start with something easy like drinking more water during your first week.The following week,you could move on to eating 3 fruits and vegetables every day.And the next week,you could aim to eat a fistful of protein at every meal.

62.________

【创新设计】2015高考英语(浙江专用)大二轮总复习仿真模拟卷一]

A failure to act can discourage you before you leave the starting line.If you've tried but failed to set a plan(or several) in the past,I know it might be hard to believe in yourself.Doubt is a complaining voice in your head that will resist personal growth with every bit of its being.The only way to defeat doubt is to believe in yourself.Who cares if you've failed a time or two?This year,you can try again(but better this time).

63.________

Is it any wonder people struggle with their weight when they see eating as a routine and exercise as a tiring and boring thing?The best fitness plan is one that causes the least interruption to your daily life.The goal isn't to add stress to your life,but rather to remove it.

The best of us couldn't bring ourselves to do something we hate consistently,so make getting in shape fun,however you've got to do it.That could be participating in a sport you love,exercising with a good friend or two,joining a group exercise class so you can meet new people,or giving yourself one “free day” per week where you forget about your training plan and exercise in any way you please.

64.________

Keeping a written record of your training progress will help you sustain an “I CAN do this” attitude.All you need is a notebook and a pen.For every workout,record what exercises you do,the number of repetitions performed,and how much weight you used if applicable.Your goal?Do better next time.Improving your best performance on a regular basis offers positive information that will encourage you to keep going.

65.________

It can be hard to stay motivated when you feel alone.The good news?You're not alone:far from it.Post a status on Facebook asking your friends if anybody would like to be your companion.If you know a co-worker who shares your goal,try to adjust your lunch time and go out together so you'll be more likely to make positive decisions.Join a support group of like-minded folks on Facebook,Linkedln,or elsewhere on the Internet.Strength in numbers is powerful,so use it to your advantage.
