31、oden stand with a small notepad(记事本) and a hole for a pencil.Im looking for paper on which to note down the name of a book I am recommending to my mother. Over forty years since my earliest memories of the kitchen pad and pencil, five houses later, the current paper and pencil look the same as they

32、always did. Surely it cant be the same pencil? The pad is more modern, but the wooden stand is definitely the original one.“Im just amazed you still have the same stand for holding the pad and pencil after all these years.” I say to her, walking back into the living-room with a sheet of paper and th

33、e pencil. “You still use a pencil. Cant you afford a pen?”My mother replies a little sharply. “It works perfectly well. Ive always kept the stand in the kitchen. I never knew when I might want to note down an idea, and I was always in the kitchen in these days.”Immediately I can picture her, hair wi

34、ld, blue housecoat covered in flour, a wooden spoon in one hand, the pencil in the other, her mouth moving silently. My mother smiles and says, “One day I was cooking and watching baby Pauline, and I had a brilliant thought, but the stand was empty. One of the children must have taken the paper. So

35、I just picked up the breadboard and wrote it all down on the back. It turned out to be a real breakthrough for solving the mathematical problem I was working on.”This story which happened before I was born reminds me how extraordinary my mother was, and is, as a gifted mathematician. I feel embarras

36、sed that I complain about not having enough child-free time to work. Later, when my mother is in the bathroom, I go into her kitchen and turn over the breadboards. Sure enough, on the back of the smallest one, are some penciled marks I recognize as mathematics. Those symbols have traveled unaffected

37、 through fifty years, rooted in the soil of a cheap wooden breadboard, invisible exhibits at every meal.56. Why has the authors mother always kept the notepad and pencil in the kitchen?A. To leave messages.B. To list her everyday tasks. C. To note down maths problems.D. To write down a flash of insp

It

41、entered the English language in the 1850s, specifically to describe the casual wall writing that experts found in Pompeii and the Roman tombs. Originally a term used only in ancient scribbling, the word has undergone considerable expansion of meaning in the past 75 years so that it now refers to any

42、 written message on a wall. Graffiti are characterized by their casualness; if they were more formal, they would be known as inscriptions(铭文).The first piece of graffiti was found on one of the walls of the city Pompeii, which was destroyed by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 AD. It was one of 1

43、,600 pieces of graffiti uncovered in Pompeii during a dig in the 19th century. Not surprisingly, there is much evidence of graffiti writing on the pyramid and temples of ancient Egypt. It is likely that ever since people have had walls and materials to scratch or paint with, they have been engaged i

44、n this simplest form of communication.The writing of graffiti gives people a unique opportunity to achieve some kind of public audience. Thus short poems, declarations of love, pieces of political and revolutionary polemic(论战), and criticisms of institutions and people form a significant part of gra

45、ffiti.Apart from its usefulness in terms of self-expression, graffiti is also a valuable source for historians. There is always the possibility that historical events may be recorded by the presence of graffiti. Perhaps the most interesting example of this is the graffiti relating to the gladiatoria

46、l(角斗士) contests held in Pompeii. Graffiti can also give us a unique view into the daily life and customs of a people, for its casual expression encourages the recording of details that more formal writing would tend to ignore.In the late 1970s, graffiti became popular. A thought written on a toilet

47、wall in Wolverhampton can now be read in Chicago or Adelaide. In its own way, this is probably the most fascinating example of McLuhans concept of “the global village”. We now have a worldwide toilet wall.61. According to the first paragraph, graffiti_.A. is another name for “inscription”B. got its

48、name from the English languageC. was born in the 1850sD. Mainly refers to casual writing or pictures on walls62. What can be inferred from the second paragraph? A. Graffiti has a long history. B. Graffiti is an attractive form of art. C. Graffiti made the ancient city Pompeii famous. D. Graffiti was

49、 ancient Egyptians main way of communication.63. What does the third and fourth paragraphs mainly tell us?A. Graffitis great value.B. Graffitis features.C. Graffitis way of expression.D. Graffitis connection with peoples daily life.64. The graffiti relating to the gladiatorial contests is mentioned

50、in the passage to prove that _.A. graffiti can show peoples customsB. graffiti can provide valuable historical evidenceC. graffiti was mainly used to record important eventsD. graffiti can provide more detailed information than formal writing65. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph implies

51、that_.A. the presence of graffiti makes the world closely connectedB. the concept of “the global village” is famous worldwideC. graffiti ha become very popular all over the worldD. people like using toilet walls to share their graffitiDFrom now on, never spend your precious time thinking of reasons

52、for your failures and shortcomings. Instead, realize that the seeds of success were planted within you when you were born. Only you have the power to make those seeds grow.The seeds, and the power to grow them, are contained in the most awesome machine ever created：the human mind. Success is a choic

53、e and not a chance. You were born a winner. You were born rich. You can be a success if only you make the right choice.You cannot be successful without first developing your self-esteem. Your level of self-esteem is always based on the degree of control that you are able to exercise over yourself, a

54、nd thus over your life. People with low self-esteem are people who do not believe that they have any power, or responsibility for their lives. They are the perennial(长期的) victims and martyrs. They are leaves tossed(摇摆) by the winds of chance blown about with any sudden change in the weather.You can

55、exercise control over your life only to the degree that you believe that you are responsible for everything that happens in your life. Failures think that everything happens by accident and chance. Successful people realize that they are responsible.Everything happens as a result of something. If we

56、 can identify the cause, we can control the effect. We are responsible for what we choose to think and believe. One generally rises to the level that one expects. We are responsible for setting our expectations. Our success is dependent upon our level of confidence.If you associate with positive-thi

57、nking people, you are definitely going to achieve success. On the contrary, the opposite happens. We are responsible for finding, planting, and nurturing the seeds that contain future victory, born from setbacks.In short, in all areas of your life, whether they be financial, physical, emotional, or

58、spiritual, you are responsible. Once you recognize this, accept it, and firmly believe it, you are on the road to success.66. People with low self-esteem are compared to leaves because they_.A. are ready to change their mindsB. are easily affected by windy weatherC. dont have the power to face their

59、 fateD. cant exercise control over themselves67. Losers would think that_.A. success is the result of hard workB. working hard will lead to successC. their failure is only because of bad luckD. they dont make efforts to succeed68. It can be inferred from paragraph 5 that_.A. whether we will succeed

60、depends on our attitudesB. developing confidence is the key to future successC. thoughts and beliefs are the result of creative mindD. setting our expectations is essential before taking action69. The last paragraph serves as_.A. the proof of the authors pointsB. the conclusion of the argumentC. an

61、introduction to another topicD. a comparison between two views70. Which is the best title for the text?A. The secrets of success.B. Success is a choice.C. Develop our confidence.D. How to achieve success.第卷（共35分）第四部分：写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节：阅读表达(满分10分)阅读下面短文，按照要求完成阅读任务。Why would human beings waste a third

62、of their lives sleeping when they could be doing more important things like looking after their families or working? Some scientists believe sleeping helps recharge the body, while others think it is important for strengthening newly-formed memories. Now, there is new evidence which suggests that th

63、e purpose of sleep may be to forget some of the millions of new things we learn each day.The neurons in the human brain consist of fibers called dendrites(树突). These grow as we learn new things and connect the brains cells to each other at contact points called synapses(突触). The larger the dendrites

64、 become and the more cells they connect, the more information we store.In 2018, Giulio Tononi and Chiara Cirelli, both biologists at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, suggested a new idea: The things our brains learn each day result in so many synapses that things start to get a little messy. Sle

65、eping allows us to sort through(整理) the “noise” and dispense all the unnecessary information, leaving behind only the most important memories.Recently, the universitys research has provided direct evidence to support the theory. The experiment involved analyzing 6,920 synapses in the brain shavings

66、from two groups of mice over a four-year period; one group had been allowed to sleep, while the other had been kept awake and entertained with toys. The researchers discovered that the brain shavings of the sleeping mice had nearly 20 percent fewer synapses than those that had been kept awake and en

67、tertained.It was also evident during the study that the brain does not shave every synapse. 20% of neurons remained unchanged; these were most likely well-established memories. Therefore, although we may be sleeping to forget some of what weve learned, the brain “forgets”in a smart way.Most research

68、ers believe clearing our brains is not the only purpose of sleep. Resting our minds and bodies has also been found to help with other biological functions like strengthening our immunity. Though scientists may never agree on a single reason, they are all sure of one thinga good nights rest is essent

69、ial for our health. So try and spend at least a third of your day sleeping!71. Whats the new discovery about the purpose of sleeping according to the text?(no more than 15 words) _72. Whats the main idea of Paragraph 2?(no more than 10 words) _73. What does the underlined word “dispense” in Paragrap

70、h 3 probably mean?(no more than 5 words) _74. What agreement do all the scientists probably reach about sleeping according to the text? (no more than 10 words) _75. What kind of sleeping habit do you have? Please explain.(no more than 25 words) _第二节：书面表达（满分25分）76. 假定你是李华，你校英语俱乐部将就 “How to keep healt
