10、e with them, telling them how I handle my shyness.Or: I will encourage them to take part in various activities to improve their social skills.【解析】本文是一篇记叙文。作者是一个害羞的人，害差使作者不敢参加活动，并把自己封闭起来。后来作者接受了自己的害怕，并创建了Shy and Mighty Society，给像自己一样害羞的人发光的空间，共同提高。1.细节理解题。根据第一段“I pressed play to listen back. All I he

11、ard was a little kid talking. My immediate reaction was to assume I was listening to someone elses recording. But that was my voice. I realised there was something strange about me.”可知，作者录完音后，按下“播放”键来听，奇怪地听到一个小孩在说话。作者的第一反应是以为在听别人的录音，但那是作者的声音。由此可知，作者感到奇怪是因为自己的声音小，或听到一个小孩在说话，或是感觉听到的不是自己期望的。故答案为：Becaus

12、e her voice was different from what she had expected. Or: Because all she heard was a little kid talking. Or: Because of her little voice.2.段落大意题。根据第二段“My little voice has made me feel really shy. And my shyness has caused me to avoid attending events, not make important connections, and keep my ide

13、as to myself. As a shy person, working from home, hiding behind my computer was brilliant. But the more time I spent hidden away, the more my comfort zone shrank（缩小）.” 可知作者的声音小，使作者害羞，害羞使作者不参加活动，不和别人交流。作者越隐藏自己，舒适区就越小。这些都说明了害羞使作者隐藏，远离了别人，给作者带来了坏影响。故答案为：Her shyness had a/an（bad） influence/effect/impact

14、 on her（life）. Or: Her shyness kept her hidden away. Or: Her shyness kept her away from other people.3.词义猜测题。上句提到“The world needs a mixture of personalities. Success is not just about who can shout the loudest. The world needs quieter people, too.”表明作者感悟到这个世界需个性。成功不只是谁喊得声最大。世界也需要更安静的人。根据“That day I

15、chose to stop hiding”可知作者选择不再躲藏，接受自己的害羞。embrace原意是“拥抱”，此处指“接受，迎接”，故答案为：Accept. Or: Welcome.4.细节理解题。根据最后一段“Then I created the Shy and Mighty Society, a space for shy people like me to shine, and in the process of helping others, I could also push myself forward,”可知作者创建Shy and Mighty Society是为了给像自己一样害

16、羞的人发光的空间，在帮助别人的过程中，也可以推动自己一点点前进。故答案为：To help shy people（to shine） and push herself forward. Or: To help other shy people and herself.5.推理判断题。作者创建Shy and Mighty Society是为了给像自己一样害羞的人发光的空间，所以作为这个组织的负责人应该是组织活动或分享克服害羞的经验，用多种形式鼓励他人战胜害羞、增加自信、提高社交技能。故答案可以是：I will organize a speech contest so that they can w

17、alk out of their comfort zone and become more confident. Or: I will share my experience with them, telling them how I handle my shyness. Or: I will encourage them to take part in various activities to improve their social skills.2.（2020年，天津卷，第二次高考）阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。As any younger brother will tell

21、istry, biology, and math, but since those interests hadnt fit Tysons definition of “cool”, I had never pursued them. On this day, for some reason, I did.As we organized teams, prepared resources and practiced answering questions, I felt more connected than I ever had to any sports team. I didnt feel

22、 as though I needed to keep up with anybody else; I was finally with peers who understood me. It was so good to feel accepted for what Im good at. For the first time in my life, I actually felt cool. Now I know who I am! Im Tysons little brother, but thats only part of my identity. Im a cool guy in

28、eone elses shadow, especially when you have a brother who is a typical example of “cool”. For years I wanted to do everything my elder brother Tyson did, but no matter how hard I tried, I was always the neglected one.可知，就像任何一个弟弟会告诉你的那样，有一个大哥哥意味着走在别人的影子里，尤其是当你有一个很“酷”的哥哥时。多年以来，我想做我的哥哥泰森做的一切，但是无论我怎么努力，

29、我总是被忽略的一个。根据句意，尤其是I was always the neglected one可推测，划线部分的意思是“得不到关注/被忽略”。故填:Receiving less attention than someone else.Or: Being/Feeling less successful than someone else.Or: Being/Feeling neglected.7.细节理解题。根据第二段的but when my family moved, everything changed. Tyson left for college, so I had to start

30、at a new school all by myself.

31、chemistry, biology, and math, but since those interests hadnt fit Tysons definition of “cool”, I had never pursued them. On this day, for some reason, I did. (我一直对化学、生物和数学着迷，但因为这些兴趣不符合泰森对“酷”的定义，所以我从来没有追求过。这一天，出于某种原因，我参加了)可知，参加Science Olympiad队是作者成长的转折点，因为他选择不再做哥哥的“影子”。故填:Joining the Science Olympiad

32、 team.Or: That he joined the Science Olympiad team.Or: Discovering his true interests (in science).9.主旨大意题。根据本段的主要内容，尤其是Now I know who I am! Im Tysons little brother, but thats only part of my identity. Im a cool guy in my own way, too. Im relieved to know that “cool” has a much broader definition t

33、han what I used to think.(现在我知道我是谁了！我是泰森的弟弟，但那只是我身份的一部分。按照我自的方式，我也是个很酷的人。知道酷的定义比我以前认为的要宽泛得多，我感到很欣慰)可知，本段主要讲述了作者找到了自己的身份以及自己对酷的定义。故填:(How) the author discovered a broader definition of “cool”.Or: He has discovered his own way to be cool.Or: He found his own identity.10.开放性题目。只要回答出自己认为什么很酷，以及原因即可。故可填:

34、Playing football well is cool because I can show how strong I am.Or: Playing the piano is cool because it can give me joy.Or: Helping the poor is cool because it can give them hope and bring me pleasure.3.（2018年3月，天津卷）阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。For many teenagers, a job is a way to earn a little extra money

49、items she liked.”可知，作者没有生气，而是试着更好地了解她，问她这件衣服要怎么穿，这样我就可以找到其他适合她的尺码的衣服。我们分享了我们对Netflix时装秀的热爱，结果她买了价值200美元的新衣服，找到了她喜欢的其他商品。所以作者了解到顾客的兴趣，帮她买了适合自己的衣服设法来满足客户的需求。故回答为：She learned about the customers interest and helped her get the clothes that suited her.Or: By learning about the customers taste and what h

50、er dress was for. Or: She helped the customer to get the clothes she liked.14.细节理解题。由第二段“Through this experience, Ive learned to be patient.”通过这次经历，我学会了有耐心。以及第三段“This experience has taught me to be more open with strangers.”经历教会我要对陌生人更加诚恳。所以作者的工作经历使她更有耐心，对陌生人更加诚恳。故回答为：It has made her patient and mor

87、e part/getting paid for it / I am today- a commercial lawyer，需要学生在快速阅读的过程中快速搞清故事的发展。Peter老师所创办的校内辩论俱乐部并在他的要求我也加入了进去，未来收到了回报，作者成为了律师。故段意归纳含有以下意向即可算是正确的：影响/收 获/有助于/职业/未来工作/人生。答案：The authors experience in the debate club contributed to his career.Or: The author benefited from his experience in the deba

88、te club. Or: Peter influenced the authors career.Or: Peter played a very important role in the authors life.Or: Peter founded the debate club, which helped the author to become a lawyer.24.答案在最后一段。此题难度在于无法在原文中的一句话中攫取中能够作为答案的原句。题干中的interested（感兴趣的）与seem dull（似乎无聊的）反复地、以不同表达出现在最后一段中，这就需要学生们在不超过字数的前提下，

89、能够高度概括。注意原文这两处表达He turned me on to the idea (turn sb. on意为inspire)以及后文最后一句you convey your own passion so that you excite other people，可知，想表达的意思为“传递激情影响学生”。答案：By conveying his own passion to the students.Or: He used poems, jokes and stories in his teaching. Or: By using creative teaching methods.25.半

90、开放式题。此题问的是你认为好老师的最重要的品质是什么。考生需要在字数要求下，写出自认为教师应该具有的品质是什么，再由because引导一个从句加以解释即可。可以根据本篇文章作者讲述自己的物理老师的优点，概括出教师应该具有的品质。根据第一段内容，作者的物理老师用紫色墨水在每一张纸上写上一首诗或一个笑话发给学生，可知老师是热情的，有爱心的；物理老师在讲述枯燥的科学原理的时候，尽可能用笑话或故事的形式来讲，这说明老师是幽默的，知识渊博的；根据老师创办了辩论俱乐部，可知老师是热情的，有创造力的。答案可以是热情的，幽默的，有创造力的等，所以答案为：A good teacher should be pas

172、when sport organizations design youth-sport programs, they must consider the implication of deliberate play and deliberate practice.Research from Telama （2006） states that regular participation in deliberate play or deliberate practice activities during childhood and youth （ages nine to eighteen） in

173、creases the likelihood of participation in sports during adulthood by six times for both males and females. Ct （2002） defines deliberate play activities in sport as those designed to maximize enjoyment. These activities are regulated by flexible rules adapted from standardized sport rules and are se

174、t up by the children or by an involved adult. Children typically change rules to find a point where their game is similar to the actual sport but still allows for play at their level. For example, children may change soccer and basketball rules to suit their needs and environment （e.g. in the street

175、. on a playing field or in someones backyard）. When involved in deliberate play activities, children are less concerned with the outcome of their outcome of their behavior. （whether they win or lose） than with the behavior. （having fun）.On the other hand, Ericsson （1993） suggests that the most effec

176、tive learning occurs through involvement in highly structured activities defined as deliberate practice. Deliberate practice activities require effort, produce no immediate rewards, and are motivated by the goal of improving performance rather than the goal of enjoyment. When individuals are involve

177、d in deliberate play, they experiment with different combinations of behaviors, but not necessarily in the most effective way to improve performance. In contrast, when individuals are involved in deliberate practice, they exhibit behavior. focused on improving performance by the most effective means

178、 available. For example, the backhand skills in tennis could be learned and improved over time by playing matches or by creating fun practice situations. However, players could more effectively improve their backhand performance by practicing drills that might be considered less enjoyable. Although

179、drills are used in most effective means available practice might not be the most enjoyable, they might be the most relevant to improving performance.（Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS）55.Besides the learning of motor skills, what are the other two import

221、). CSR is made up of three broad layers. The most basic is traditional corporate charity work. Companies typically spend about 1% of pre-tax profits on worthy projects. But many feel that simply writing cheques to charities is no longer enough. In some companies, shareholders want to know that their

222、 money is being put to good use, and employees want to be actively involved in good works. Money alone is not the answer when companies come under attack for their behavior. Hence the second layer of CSR, which is a branch of risk management. Starting in the 1980s, with environmental disasters such

223、as the explosion at Bhopal and the Exxon Valdez oil spill, industry after industry has suffered blows to its reputation. So, companies often responded by trying to manage the risks. They talk to non-governmental organisations (NGOs) and to governments, create codes of conduct（行为准则) and devote themse

224、lves to more transparency（透明）in their operations. Increasingly, too. they, along with their competitors, set common rules to spread risks. All this is largely defensive, but there are also opportunities for those that get ahead of the game. The emphasis on opportunity is the third layer of CSR: the

225、idea that it can help to create value. If approached in a strategic way, CSR could become part of a companys competitive advantage. That is just the sort of thing chief executives like to hear. The idea of doing well by doing good has become popular. Nevertheless, the business of trying to be good i

226、s bringing difficult questions to executives. Can you measure CSR performance? Should you be cooperating with NGOs and youre your competitors? Is there any really competitive advantage to be had from a green strategy?Corporate social responsibility is now seen as a mainstream. Big companies want to

227、tell the world about their good citizenship with their devotion to social responsibilities. Done badly, CSR is often just window-dressing and can be positively harmful. Done well, though, it is not some separate activity that companies do on the side, a corner of corporate life reserved for virtue（美

228、德）：it is just good business.(Note: Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS)78.Both _ in some companies find it no longer enough to simply donate money to charities.79.Give one example of the defensive measures of risk management according to the passage.80.With the

229、emphasis on opportunity, the third layer of CSR is meant to_.81.According to the passage, good business (paragraph 6) means that corporations _ while making profits.【答案】78.Shareholders and employees79.Companies talk to non-government organizations(NGOs) and to governments./Companies create codes of

230、conduct. /Companies devote themselves to more transparency in their operations./Companies set common rules with their competitors to spread risks.80.Create value81.take social responsibilities【解析】文章介绍现在很多公司管理的CSR的三层管理，旨在创办一个既能盈利又有社会责任的公司。78.细节题：根据文章第一段的最后的句子：But many feel that simply writing cheques

231、 to charities is no longer enough. In some companies, shareholders want to know that their money is being put to good use, and employees want to be actively involved in good works.可知股份持有者和职员发现只是简单的将钱捐给慈善机关是不够的，所以填Shareholders and employees。79.细节题：根据第三段的内容：可知公司会采取下列防御措施应对危机：和非政府组织和政府谈话：Companies talk

232、 to non-government organizations(NGOs) and to governments./公司创造行为准则：Companies create codes of conduct. /公司在经营的时候更加透明：Companies devote themselves to more transparency in their operations./公司和竞争者一起设置共同的规定。Companies set common rules with their competitors to spread risks.80.细节题：根据第四段的句子，The emphasis on

233、 opportunity is the third layer of CSR: the idea that it can help to create value.可知第三层的管理CSR是强调机遇，旨在创造价值，所以填Create value。81.推理题：根据第六段的前面两句话，Corporate social responsibility is now seen as a mainstream. Big companies want to tell the world about their good citizenship with their devotion to social re

Buses could be provided to take them into the centre. These Park and Ride projects are inc

236、reasingly popular in the UK. At Southerton, for example, a council-funded project led to a 15% drop in city centre traffic over five months. 3 What the council found, though, was that the project proved somewhat unpopular with shop owners in the area outside the centre. Many of their shops relied on

237、 passing car drivers for some of their trade. As the number of people driving past dropped, so did their incomes. 4 Making car driving expensive is another way of _.

238、encourage them to leave their cars behind. 5 However, one thing has to be got right for any solution to succeed. If we expect people to give up the habit of driving, we must give them an alternative they can rely on. Constant delays, unannounced changes to the timetable and sudden cancellations all

242、vercrowding)86.Because public transport is not reliable/satisfactory.【解析】随着汽车价格的逐渐下降，公路状况越来越好，路上的汽车也就越来越多了。结果就使得公路严重拥挤。本文就解决道路拥挤问题提出建议，如何才能让司机放弃开车选择公交。82.根据第一段句子“the cost of a new car had fallen”和“better road conditions have also attracted more drivers.”可以写出答案为：The reduced/lowered cost of a new car

243、and better road conditions83.根据第二段句子“ the problem might be relieved by getting them to park outside the towntake them to the center”可以写出答案They should park outside the town, and take the bus to the centre.84.根据第三段最后一句“As the number of people so did their incomes.”可知，开车经过商场的人少了，商店的收入也就会随着减少。所以答案为Their

244、 incomes dropped because fewer people drove past.85.根据第四段空格所在的句子“使开车费用增加也是一种方法”说明上文已经提到了解决什么问题的方法。根据第二段开头句子“When people .the problem might be relieved of getting them to park outside the town.”可知，使开车的费用增加也是一种减轻交通拥挤问题的方法。因此可以写出答案relieving the problem( of overcrowding)。根据下文提到“road taxes”和“finding driv

245、ers”等两项费用问题可以促使更多的司机不开车，所以这也是一种鼓励司机不开车乘公交车的一种方法。因此可以写出答案encouraging people to use public transport more或 encouraging people to use their cars less86.根据最后一段句子“If we expect.rely on”说明，我们想让人们放弃开车的想法必须给他们值得信赖的选择。接着后面列举了一些公交车的弊端，比如耽搁时间，随意更换时间，突然取消等等问题都不能让人们真正信赖公交。所以可以总结出答案Because public transport is not

Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words.While contact between adolescents (between the ages of fifteen and nineteen) and their peers (同龄人) is a universal characteristic of all cultures, th

258、e nature and the degree of such contact vary a great deal. In American contemporary society, adolescents spend much more time with their peers than with younger children or adults.This pattern of age segregation(隔离) in American society did not become usual until the beginning of the industrialized s

259、ociety. Changes in the workplace separated children from adults, with adults working and children attending school. The dramatic increase of mothers in the workplace has further contributed to the reduction in the amount of time adolescents spend with adults. School reform efforts during the ninetee

260、nth century, which resulted in age-segregated schools and grades, have reduced the amount of time adolescents spend with younger children. Finally, the changes in population are considered a factor that may have contributed to the emergence of adolescent peer culture. From 1955 t0 1975, the adolesce

261、nt population increased dramatically, from 11 percent t0 20.9 percent. This increase in the number of adolescents might be a contributing factor to the increase in adolescent peer culture in terms of growth in size.Research supports the view that adolescents spend a great deal of time with their pee

278、 according to the information given in the passage.A wise teacher once told me that every teenager needs to experience a not-so-fun first job from working at a grocery store to the fast food industry.Now I still remember my first day at a fast food restaurant three years ago. I wanted to save up mon

280、where, and I heard the words that no 16-year-old boy or anyone for that matter wants to hear: Mike, theres a problem in the mens bathroom and you might want gloves for this one. I realized right away that working at the restaurant was not going to be a picnic. The manager expected a clean environmen

281、t and, particularly, fast service with a friendly smile.Over three years later I still work at that restaurant whenever I go home during vacations. I love my co-workers there and all the customers know who I am. Every morning the same senior citizens come in and get their morning coffees. They chat

282、with us workers and joke around.

286、so I applied everywhere I could that summer，这一题的考点是why，即问apply everywhere的原因，根据句中的so得出答案在本句的前半部分I wanted to save up money and buy my own car. 答题时注意人称的变化改成He wanted to save up money and buy his own car.102.本题定位词particularly expect，位置在第二段最后一句The manager expected a clean environment and, particularly,

287、fast service with a friendly smile.答案要写完整的句子The manger particularly expected them to offer fast service with a friendly smile.注意：这一题问manager 期待worker 做什么，而文中出现的是名词短语fast service，所以要根据常识补充餐厅服务员是给客人提供服务(offer service).103.本题利用定位词still work 定位到第四段第一句话Over three years later I still work at the restauran

288、t whenever I go home during vacations.后面一句即是解释原因I love my co-workers there and all the customers know who I am.答案也参照第82题把人称修改He loves his co-workers and all the customers know who he is.104.本体是综合理解问作者从他的第一份工作中学到什么，根据记叙文意义升华在尾段，定位到最后一段，From my first job at the restaurant, I learned teamwork and devot

298、s with themes）相关。考点定位：考查整篇文章理解能力和把握全文结构的能力。106.文章第一段介绍有按地点，时间为主题的集邮。第二段第二句以后是讲按运动为主题的集邮。第3,4段讲按天文和十二生肖为主题的集邮。因此该句可以看成第一段与2,3,4,段的段间过渡，也可以看成2.3.4段的中心句。因此，相对于第一段，这里当然是介绍other methods of collecting stamps。考点定位：考查识别文章结构和段间逻辑关系的能力。107.该题是问为了收集全十二生肖的邮票我们该怎么办。首先可以把信息定位在第5段; 然后找到该段的第二句（and a lot of collecto

299、rs wait patiently for 12 years to collect a full set of them.）; 最后以答者的身份改变人称（they变为we ）.即We should wait for 12 years.考点定位：考查文章细节理解和原文转述能力。108.该题要考生列出文章提到的三个一般性集邮主题。全文讲到集邮主题有地点，时间，运动，天文和十二生肖等。但在2,3,4段中浓彩笔墨介绍了人们喜爱的运动，天文和十二生肖三个主题。所以答案为sport(s)； astronomy；animal(s)。考点定位：考查文章结构把握和信息取舍的能力。109.根据文章最后一段第一句“

300、主题集邮尤其受青少年的欢迎。因为对于他们来说，有着广泛的可选择范围。”所以them是指人（Teenages）。考查指代词在文章中的理解能力。23.（2011年，湖南卷）My First Long KunTwo weeks ago, I had a quarrel with my husband.

The researchers form the University of Bristol used Google

333、 Ngram Viewer, a facility for finding the frequency of terms in scanned books, to search for more than 600 particular words identified as representing anger, dislike, fear, joy, sadness and surprise.They found that almost all of the categories (类别) showed a drop in these “mood words” over time. Only
