[2016·天水二中質(zhì)檢]I paid a visit to Cambridge last January. Though the trip took me 5 hours and it rained the whole day with strong winds there, the town deserved a visit.
The bus started at 6:10 a.m. It stopped at 4 airports before we finally arrived, which wasted more time than we expected. Tired with long sitting, one passenger stood up to relax his numbed legs. The driver asked him to sit down but in vain. So he pulled up and said seriously, “Either you get off or sit down.”To him, safety is the first policy.
Cambridge consists of nearly thirty colleges. The oldest part of the university was built in the 13th century while the newest was founded in the mid 1960s. The number of the students is so great that many students live in lodgings (出租房) and move into college for their final year.
Cambridge is called a university town because there is no clear separation between the university buildings and the rest of the city. The university is not just one part of the town; it is all over the town. The heart of Cambridge has shops, pubs, and supermarkets, but most of it is universitycolleges, departments, libraries, clubs and other places for university staff and students. Students fill the shops, cafes, banks and churches, making these as well part of the university.
With over 10,000 undergraduates and postgraduates, the town is a busy place indeed. Students here are not allowed to keep cars. If you happen to be walking in the street during a break, better stop a moment to avoid the boiling sea of bicycles hurrying in all directions, carrying students from one college or lecture room to another.

[2016·衡水中學四調(diào)]Shyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people. Shy people are anxious and self-conscious; that is, they are concerned with their own appearance and actions too much. Negative thoughts are constantly occurring in their minds: What kind of impression am I making? Do they like me? Do I sound stupid? Am I wearing unattractive clothes?
It is obvious that such uncomfortable feelings must affect people unfavorably. A person's self-concept is reflected in the way he or she behaves and the way a person behaves affects other people's reactions. In general, the way people think about themselves has a deep effect on all areas of their lives.
Shy people, who have low respect, are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others. They need faith that they are doing “the right thing”. Shy people are very sensitive to criticism. It makes them feel inferior (自卑). They also find it difficult to be pleased by praises because they believe they are unworthy of praise. A shy person may respond to a praise with a statement like this one: “You're just saying that to make me feel good; I know it's not true.” It is clear that, while self-awareness is a healthy quality, overdoing it is harmful.
Can shyness be completely got rid of, or at least reduced? Fortunately, people can overcome shyness with determination since shyness goes hand in hand with lack of self respect. It is important for people to accept their weakness as well as their strengths. Each one of us has his or her own characteristics. We are interested in our own personal ways. The better we understand ourselves, the easier it becomes to live up to our chances for a rich and successful life.

Ways to Get Over Ourselves
We take ourselves too seriously. A person cuts us off on the way to work, and it ruins our whole day. We get upset with our partners for not taking out the trash, or let our lazy co-worker get under our skin. 1 A person starts to live when they can live outside themselves. Here are some ways to get over ourselves.
We need to tell ourselves to get over ourselves. We need to remind ourselves that it's not about us. So I suggest you tell yourself, out loud and in the mirror, to get over yourself—over and over. Put a post-it note on your computer at work or leave a reminder on your phone. Just remember, it's not about you. 2
We need to allow ourselves to make mistakes. We are only humans, and we will always make mistakes. By allowing ourselves to make mistakes and by knowing it's unavoidable, we'll make it a lot easier on ourselves to do so. 3
We can tell someone we love them. Love is all you need. When we stop making it about us and tell someone we love them, it helps calm us down and get back in touch with what matters most. 4 The faster we get over ourselves, the faster we can spread love with the world around us.
5 It's almost impossible to be in a bad mood when laughing. Fake it until you make it. Just turn that frown upside down and make it a happy face. Laughter and play is so important to our emotional well-being.
A.That is the crazy thing we call love.
B.We should focus on what we get.
C.We should all just laugh, out loud.
D.There is no failure, only succeeding and learning.
E.The more we can remember that, the easier life is.
F.But remember we can't change anyone but ourselves.
G.When we focus on the good stuff, that's what we'll see.
本文是一篇說明文,從四個方面介紹了如何超越自我。
1.F 根據(jù)后文“A person starts to live when they can live outside themselves. Here are some ways to get over ourselves. ”可知,其前一定要介紹我們除了自己不能改變?nèi)魏稳恕?/p>
2.E 根據(jù)上文“Just remember, it's not about you.”可知,此處承接上文,介紹我們越能記住這個,生活就越容易。
3.D 此處總結(jié)上文:沒有失敗,只有成功和學習。
4.A 該段的主旨為:“We can tell someone we love them.”即,我們可以告訴某些人我們愛他們。上文說當我們告訴某些人我們愛他們時,這有助于我們冷靜下來,再次意識到什么是最重要的。此處總結(jié):我們把這種瘋狂的東西叫做愛。
5.C 根據(jù)下文當你笑的時候你不可能有個壞心情。所謂演久成真。把皺眉翻了個底朝天,露出快樂的臉。歡笑和玩耍對我們的情感幸福非常重要。由此可知該段的主旨為:我們只需要大聲笑。

本文分析了麥當勞在美國經(jīng)營不景氣的原因以及Shake Shack這樣的“快餐店”受歡迎的原因。
1.choosing 考查省略句。“連詞+非謂語結(jié)構(gòu)”,choose與句子主語Americans之間為主動關(guān)系,故填choosing。
2.restaurants 考查名詞。one of+名詞復數(shù)。
3.but 考查連詞。前后兩句之間為轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系。“盡管麥當勞是美國最知名的餐館,但最近領(lǐng)導人看到了他們不喜歡的數(shù)字”。
4.eighth 考查數(shù)詞??涨盀槎ü谠~,空后為名詞,故此處填序數(shù)詞。
5.is working 考查動詞時態(tài)。根據(jù)上文介紹麥當勞的境況可知,當前麥當勞正在努力使顧客回來。
6.to reach 考查want的用法。want后應為“to do”結(jié)構(gòu)。
7.a 考查冠詞。Shake Shack為首次出現(xiàn),故此處表示“一種新型的餐館”。
8.As/When/While 考查狀語從句。結(jié)合語義可知,此處表示時間。
9.successful 考查詞性轉(zhuǎn)換??涨坝懈痹~,空后為名詞,故該空填形容詞。
10.On 考查介詞。on+具體一天。

Dear Editor,
We made a survey in our school last week and I'd like to tell you something about the results.
Yours sincerely,

One possible version:
Dear Editor,
We made a survey in our school last week and I'd like to tell you something about the results.
As is demonstrated in the bar chart, great mind worship occupies 47% of the idol worship, followed by celebrity worship which gains the percentage of 38%. 11% of the students surveyed adore people around them, for instance, teachers, parents or friends. Students without idols account for the rest of 4%.
Apparently, idol worship has become a common social phenomenon among the adolescents. There is no denying that idol worship inspires us to focus on their achievements, which come from diligence, effort and persistence. However, blind worship is not supposed to be advocated because it will lead to extreme behavior easily. As far as I am concerned, we should avoid blind worship and learn to worship our idols rationally.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
