I’m always surprised when I hear the statistics about how little time kids spend outside. One study found children are spending less than half amount of time outdoors than they did just 20 years ago.
1.All that outside time then wasn’t just about health and exercise, though that was certainly true. Several studies also have linked outside time to higher test scores, lower anxiety and aggression, more creativity and improved attention spans. 2. Researchers look at three primary schools in South Wales that adopted an outdoor learning program with teachers working outside with students at least one hour a week and come to this conclusion.
3.Eliza Minnucci’s kindergarten class there engages in Forest Mondays, during which the students spend the whole day in the woods, rain or shine. It’s a more curriculum-based version of the Land, an outdoor playground in England, which allows kids to experiment, build dams and even build fires in the woods.
So what have the results been? Mostly positive. “Kids are so resourceful out here. Minnucci said. 4.We teach them discrete (互不关联的) skills and facts and they put them together later. That’s a good way to learn, but it’s not the way the world works,” she said. “ 5.In the place, they need to think about how to build a dam with others and at the same time think about staying dry and staying warm.
Considering all the good evidence that being outside is good great for mind and body — as well as test scores — it seems like this kind of education is a natural next step for teachers.
A.My own childhood was filled with outdoor time.
B.As an added bonus, it is also beneficial to teachers.
C.The idea is to let kids learn lessons from the natural world.
D.In the classroom, we separate everything into small pieces.
E.A public school in Queechee is taking these results seriously.
F.I like giving them the opportunity to be in a really complex place.
G.Playing outdoors involves plenty of learning, just not from a book.

One day a professor entered the classroom and told the students about a surprise test. After hearing that, all students were seated and waited for the test to begin. Now, the professor gave the test papers to all students with text facing down on the desk. Once he was done with handing out the test to all students, he asked them to turn the test pages and begin.
Students were confused to see that there was not a question but just a black dot in the center of the page. The professor noticed the students’ facial expressions and told them, “I want you to write about what you see there.”
The students were still confused but got started with the test. At the end of the class, the professor took all answer sheets and started reading each answer from each sheet in front of all students. All of them described about the black dot and tried to explain its position. After the professor finished reading, the whole class was silent.
Now, the professor began to explain, “Don’t worry. I am not going to give you grades for this but I just want you to think about something. Here everyone focused on the black dot and wrote about it but no one wrote about the white paper. The same is with our lives. The white paper embodies our whole life and the black spot problems in our life.
Our life is a gift given to us by God, with love and care, and we always have reasons to celebrate---our friends around us, the job that provides us our livelihood, the miracles we see everyday. Still we just focus on day to day problems like health issues, lack of money, problems in relationships, etc. But we never see that these problems are very small compared to everything we have in our lives.”
1.From the text we learn that _________.
A. the professor gave the students an unexpected test
B. the professor graded the students’ test papers
C. none of the students focused on the black dot
D. the students were unwilling to take the test
2.The underlined word “embodies” in Paragraph 4 probably can be replaced by ________.
A. presents B. represents
C. empties D. enriches
3.What is the main idea of the text?
A. Be happy to take tests
B. Life is filled with problems
C. There are many black dots in our life

高三英语完形填空中等难度题查看答案及解析
When we’re in need, we always turn to our parents for help. But would you like them to hear the conversations you have with your friends on the school playground or lunch queue? Social networking sites have become extensions (延伸) of the school hallways, so would you add your parents as “friends” and allow them to view your online activities and conversations with friends?
In the past the generation gap included a technology gap, where children were up to date with latest technology and parents were left behind, content to continue their day to day lives as they always had because they had no need to know more about technology. However, more and more parents are beginning to realize just how important social networks are in their lives. This realization has given many parents the motivation to educate themselves about social networking sites.
These days many people are attracted to social networking sites because they can choose who they have around them; there’s also a certain amount of control over privacy that we don’t get in real life. Sometimes we feel that privacy is violated (侵犯）when we must accept a “friend” request from a parent or family member.
It’s a difficult choice whether or not to allow a parent to become a part of our online lives. On the one hand we don’t want to “reject” their request because that might hurt their feelings or make them feel you have something to hide. On the other hand if you do accept, then you could have a sense of being watched and no longer feel free to comment or communicate the way you did before.
A recent survey suggested that parents shouldn’t take it personally if their child ignores their request: “When a teen ignores a parent’s friend request, it doesn’t necessarily mean that they are hiding something, but it could mean that this is one part of their life where they want to be independent.”
Perhaps talking with parents and giving explanations would help soften the blow if you do choose not to add them to your friends list.
1.The passage is mainly about ______.
A.privacy online B.parents’ friend requests
C.the generation gap D.social networks
2.From Paragraph 2, we learn that ______.
A.parents have realized the importance of social networks
B.parents feel secure about their privacy online
C.social networks successfully fill the generation gap
D.social networks offer a platform for parents to communicate
3.Teenagers may refuse a parent’s friend request because ______.
A.their parents make negative comments on them
B.they hide something from their parents
C.they are unwilling to be watched by parents
D.their parents tend to fall behind in technology
4.The passage is written mainly for ______.
A.parents B.teachers
C.researchers D.teenagers

When people think about British music, for the most part they think about the 60s or 70s with the likes of The Beatles and The Rolling Stones or more modern artists like Adele or Ed Sheeran. However, stuck between these two ages was, in my opinion, British music’s best period. The 90s were an optimistic time for Britain and indeed Europe, with the economy recovering from the lows of the 80s and the Cold War ending.
One of the defining features of 90s music was the birth of “Britpop”. This was a style of pop music that aimed to promote “Britishness” and commonly featured electric guitars, drums and male singers. Britpop was the style used by world-famous bands such as Oasis, Blur, Pulp and Suede who became known as “The Big Four”. The summer of 1995 was dominated by the “Battle of Britpop” which was between Blur and Oasis for the number one spot. Eventually, Blur won the battle and Oasis settled for second.
However, the 90s weren’t only for the boys, with major female groups also finding fame, the most well-known of which were “the Spice Girls” who were extremely popular in Britain and around the world. Once again they promoted “Britishness” and had catchy melodies and lyrics, but they also started the “Girl Power” movement which helped empower girls and women worldwide. It isn’t too far to assume that without their music, many female singers and artists who we love today would not have had the confidence to pursue their dream.
British music may have had many great times, however the 90s are often overlooked. Although I was not alive to enjoy the music properly, the 90s had a huge impact on British culture that can be felt today and I feel that the decade should get the recognition it deserves!
1.What can we infer from the first paragraph?
A.The Cold War came to an end in the 80s.
B.Britain’s economy began to pick up in the 90s.
C.The Beatles represented the best British music.
D.Adele is better than Ed Sheeran in modern music.
2.What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?
A.Britpop. B.Britishness.
C.The Big Four. D.Battle of Britpop.
3.What’s the most important influence of “the Spice Girls” according to the text?
A.Promoting “Britishness”. B.Empowering girls and women.
C.Creating catchy melodies. D.Finding fame for female groups.
4.The writer thinks the impact of the 90s music on British culture is ________.
A.underestimated B.well-recognized
C.fairly evaluated D.reasonably doubted
