佳作欣赏
Dear Sir or Madam,
I’m writing to inform you of a newly discovered ancient tomb in our city.
It was built in the late Tang Dynasty.On the walls of the tomb are many paintings,which show us how people at that time lived.The wall paintings are of great value.But I am worried about them because some of them are damaged by air pollution,which comes from visitors who come in every day.
I think some measures should be taken immediately.For example,we should put glass walls in front of the paintings.Second,the number of visitors should be limited.And we should build a website where people can look at the pictures and paintings of the tomb.Only in this way can we protect the tomb properly.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

(2017·广西桂林中学月考)
We all have ideas about what kinds of foods are good or bad to eat.As a result,people from one culture often think the foods that people from another culture eat are unacceptable.Many people would find it terrible to eat rats,but there are fortytwo different cultures whose people regard rats as proper food.
Food likes and dislikes do not always seem related to nutrition.For example,broccoli(花椰菜) is first on a list of the most nutritious common vegetables,but it is twentyfirst on a list of vegetables that Americans like most to eat.Tomatoes are sixteenth on the list of most nutritious vegetables,but they are first on the list of vegetables that Americans like most to eat.
But dislikes is not the only reason why some cultures will not eat a certain food.In some cultures,certain foods are taboo.Taboo is a word from the language of the Fiji Islands that is used to describe something that is forbidden.We do not usually think about why certain things are taboo in our culture.
One example is that Americans do not eat dogs,although people from some other cultures
regard them as good food.In the United States,dogs are very important to people as pets.They are usually regarded as part of the family,almost like a child in some cases.In addition,dogs have value as protection against criminals(罪犯).Actually,the dog’s place in society as a companion makes the dog taboo as food.
Scientists believe that most food likes and dislikes are a result of the ways of life of different people.People will not eat pets such as dogs.Americans eat a lot of beef because there is plenty of land for raising cattle and their meat can be shipped cheaply for long distances by railroads.

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
One of the toughest things about being a high school student is that you never seem to get enough sleep at night,which often leaves you nodding during classes.Spending either less than six or more than nine hours in sleeping puts your health at risk.A popular solution to a lack of sleep at night is to take a “power nap(小睡)”during the day,but does this work?Generally speaking,it
can be beneficial.Research shows that a nap in the day-even a brief one as short as ten minutes—can clear your mind and leave you with increased energy and improved productivity.
Here are some things you need to know to nap correctly.To start with,every time you doze(打瞌睡) during the day does not count as a “power nap”.The best time to take a power nap is in the midafternoon,when your energy level tends to decrease.Try to avoid naps after 4 pm,for sleeping too late in the day can make it harder to fall asleep at night.How long should a power nap be?Grabbing 10-30 minutes of rest is usually best for a middleoftheday nap.You are not really getting established sleep if you nod for only five minutes.
However,napping more than 40 minutes can leave you feeling sleepier than when you start,meaning you’ll have to go through the whole wakingup process after you go into the deeper stage of sleep.However,as refreshing as it might be,if you are getting adequate sleep at night,taking a power nap isn’t such a wise choice.The reason is that sleeping during the day can interfere with(妨碍) your body’s biorhythms(生理节奏).The brain gets used to going to bed at roughly the same time each night and getting up at the same time each day,and you don’t want to disturb this routine.
语篇解读 学生睡眠不足会导致课堂打盹,如何解决这一影响学生健康的问题呢?本文作者提出了白天小睡这一概念,以及如何有效地进行小睡。

Texting(发短信) walkers aren’t just an annoyance to other walkers,Australian researchers armed with movie specialeffects technology have determined scientifically that they’re threats to themselves.Using motioncapture technology similar to that used for films,researchers concluded that texting while walking not only affects balance but also the ability to walk in straight line.
“Some people like checking emails while walking to work in the morning,” said the study coauthor Hoorn,“But they may not know it has a serious effect on the safety of themselves.”Other facts have also proved this.A tourist from Taiwan walked off a pier near Melbourne last month while checking Facebook,bringing a sudden and icy end to a penguinwatching visit.Another person who was too wrapped up in his phone to notice dangers walked straight into the fountain in front of a shopping mall.
The Australian study involved 27 volunteers,a third of whom admitted having knocked into objects while texting.They were asked to walk 8.5 meters three times—once without phones,once
while reading text and once while writing text,when eight cameras recorded their actions.
They found the volunteers using the phones walked slower,and,more seriously,they locked their arms and elbows in like “robots”,which forced their heads to move more,throwing themselves off balance.“In a pedestrian(步行的) environment,inability to maintain a straight path would be likely to increase potential for traffic accidents,” said Mr.Hoorn.“The best thing to do is to step aside and stop,or keep off the phone.”
Authorities worldwide have taken note.Signs on Hong Kong’s subway system advise passengers in three languages to keep their eyes off their phones.Police and transport authorities have highlighted the danger in Singapore,where the Straits Times newspaper recently declared cellphonedistracted road crossing as “bad habit No.2” contributing to the rising number of road deaths.Some U.S.states,including New York and Arkansas,are considering bans on what they’re calling phone jaywalking.
语篇解读 本文属于议论文。短信是人们平时交流的方式,但是走路的时候发短信,这往往会带来一系列的交通安全问题。所以有些国家为了避免安全事故的发生,正在考虑对走路发短信进行立法。
4.According to the passage,people texting while walking usually .
A.do not influence other walkers
B.do harm to their eyes
C.put themselves in danger
D.can still walk straight
答案 C
解析 细节理解题。根据第一段第一句“Texting(发短信) walkers aren’t just an annoyance to other walkers,Australian researchers armed with movie specialeffects technology have determined scientifically that they’re threats to themselves.”可知,走路时发短信不但给他人带来不便,也把自己置于危险当中。故选C。
5.Which of the following words has the closest meaning to “wrapped up” in Paragraph 2?
A.Absentminded. B.Annoyed.
C.Confused. D.Absorbed.
答案 D
解析 词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句“Another person who was too wrapped up in his phone to notice dangers walked straight into the fountain in front of a shopping mall.”可知,这个人因为太专注手机而没有注意到危险,故选D。
6.About the Australian study,we know that .
A.the volunteers using phones while walking moved normally
B.ten volunteers admitted having bumped into things while texting
C.the volunteers were divided into three groups during the study
D.texting walkers are exposed to greater possibility of traffic accidents
答案 D
解析 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“...the volunteers using the phones walked slower...throwing themselves off balance.”及“...inability to maintain a straight path would be likely to increase potential for traffic accidents...”可知研究表明,走路发短信的人会失去平衡感,从而增加了交通事故的发生概率。故选D。
7.The last paragraph suggests that .
A.actions have been taken against texting while walking
B.Hong Kong’s subway system forbids texting walkers to take the train
C.New York has made laws to ban phone jaywalking
D.cellphonedistracted road crossing is considered the worst habit in Singapore
答案 A
解析 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Authorities worldwide have taken note.”可知,最后一段暗示世界各地对走路发短信已经采取了一些措施。故选A。

15.答案 Actually

参考范文
Dear Tom,
I’ve finally made my decision to go to America for further study after graduating from high school.
I’ve been longing to go to America,mainly for two reasons.One is that I can experience American culture,which is quite different from that of my country.The other is that I can broaden my horizons in this developed country.
But honestly,I am faced with some challenges.I don’t have a good command of English,especially spoken English,so I’m afraid I’ll have difficulty fitting in very soon.Besides,I have the pressure from my lessons,which I don’t know how to handle.
With so many things bothering me,I hope you can offer me some practical advice.
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
