How would you describe your style? Formal? Classical? Casual? Smart? First of all, what is style? Let’s hear a few words of wisdom from the wise. “Style is knowing who you are and what you want to say,” (Gore Vidal); “Style is an expression of individualism mixed with charm,” (John Fairchild); “Style is the perfection of a point of view,” (Robert Eberhart); “Style is a simple way of saying complicated things,” (Jean Cocteau); “Style is the dress of thoughts,” (Lord Chesterfield).

So, now you know what style is, you’ll need to buy some clothes. But where? In the UK, you can get really cheap, stylish, second-hand clothes at charity shops. They’re great if you want exclusive labels but don’t want to pay the price. The only difficulty is discovering where the really good bargains are. But don’t worry, Leila Gray can help you here. She’s the proud owner of a vintage Hardy Amies coat, picked up at a charity shop for ￡20---a good deal when you realize it cost more than ￡800 new. “You have to go to the richer areas of a city,” she says. “That’s where all the labels are. It can take a bit of hunting around, but that is half the fun, and there’s a lot of buried treasure just waiting to be discovered.”

So, now you know where to buy your new, stylish clothes, how do you acquire your style? Experts say that mixing and matching from charity shops can help you find your own style----something that’s really you. That’s what Scottish musician Morus did. “My fashion tip is this,” he says, “Look at yourself with the eye of a graphic designer. If you can’t be attractive, aim for ‘interesting’ or ‘original’.” Momus’ unique style could even make him happier, too. As psychologist Marilyn Elias explains, the happiest people “judge themselves by their own yardsticks, never against what others do or have”.

Shoichi Aoki, the founder of Japanese street style magazine FRUiTS, agrees. “I think real fashion is what people wear on the streets, the clothes that they wear, the way that they wear them,” he says. “What you see in fashion magazines and on models has been styled and it’s more commercial.” He says that his inspiration for FRUiTS came from people combining traditional Japanese clothing such as the kimono and “geta” (Japanese wooden clogs) with Western fashion. “This really caught my eye,” Aoki adds. These styles may seem wild, but Aoki’s idea is not: be bold, be creative and find something that suits you.

Maybe it’s time to create your own look. There are many online guides to help you. Perhaps the best advice comes from a website called wikiHow, “If you see something you like,” it says, “feel free to copy, but don’t make yourself a clone… mix it up and make it yours.” Think about it!

1.What should you first do to choose they style that best suits you?

A. Follow the images of the wise people.　　 B. Go for whatever is fashionable.

C. Simplify complicated expressions.　　 D. Figure out what a true style is.

2.What does the underlined word “that” in Paragraph 2 refer to?

A. Getting clothes of leading brands.　　 B. Buying clothes at rather low prices.

C. Searching for really good bargains.　　 D. Starting a charity shop selling clothes.

3.What is the focus of Shoichi Aoki and his magazine FRUiTS?

A. Commercialization of fashion magazines.

B. Expression of something personal and creative.

C. Designing fashionable wear for men in the street.

D. Promoting Japanese traditional clothing worldwide.

4.What is probably the best title for the passage?

A. How to find the style that suits you　　 B. Where to pick up a bargain

C. What to wear to develop your style　　 D. Whom to model to be popular

Dear SJ,

Losing a best friend is never easy.

Your problem, is not just that you miss your best friend, it is that you feel empty and lost without her friendship.

It takes time to get over a lost, and during that time, your mind is getting used to a new way of being. This is usually a good thing, even if it feels like a bad thing.

Now that you are on your own, you are being forced to learn to be by yourself and to rely upon your own inner voice for guidance. I am sure that this feels strange for you, but if you can hang on for a bit longer, it may work to your advantage.

Best friends are cool, but it is important to know the difference between missing someone and being too independent upon them.

At your age, girls do tend to stick together and having a good boyfriend may not yet be the better choice. Your friend is leaving you, her best friend, for a boyfriend. Boyfriends are completely different from best friends. The distinction is that boyfriends come and go, while girl friends often stay in your life throughout high school, and even afterwards. It is a completely different sort of bond.

I suggest that you take advantage of this period in your life to expand your horizons. Enjoy the freedom of having no best friend for a while, and hang with the group. By the time your former best friend breaks up with her boyfriend, you will be in a completely different place, a far better place.

And, by the way, next time you feel empty and lost, try to write about it in a diary. In several months, you will look back and read it with curiosity about yourself. “Who was I then, and what could I have been thinking?”

1.Judging from the letter, SJ’s problem was that she didn’t know _______ .

A．whether to give up her best friend

B．what to do without her best friend

C．whom to choose between two friends

D．how to stop missing her former friend

2.The underlined part “a new way of being” (in Paragraph 3) refers to the situation in which SJ has to _______.

A．find a new friendship　　 B．live without her boyfriend

C．learn to give up　　　　　　 D．learn to be independent

3.The writer believes by the time SJ’s former friend loses her boyfriend, SJ will _______.

A．take revenge on her former friend

B．comfort her former friend

C．feel more independent and confident

D．continue friendship with her former friend

4.What does the last paragraph seem to suggest?

A．Unhappy experiences are easy to forget.

B．Keeping a diary helps correct oneself.

C．SJ will get over her problem soon.

D．One shouldn’t forget the past experiences.

高三英语单项填空中等难度题查看答案及解析

Dirty, dangerous and dull. These are three words you do not want to use to describe your job. While many jobs are a little dirty, dangerous or dull, some are so much so that it is better not to have humans performing them at all. Would you want to be the first person to go into a building on fire?1.This is already happening all around the world. There are millions of robots at work today.

The most common type of robotic device is a mechanical arm. This is often used in manufacturing.2.But robots have moved well beyond such simple tasks. A robot named Demeter is an agricultural harvester that can move around a field of crops, planting and harvesting by using GPS, controllers and sensors (传感器).

Some robots are programmed to do certain jobs, but others are remotely operated vehicles(ROVs).3.The US space agency NASA has used ROVs to explore the surface of the moon and Mars. ROVs are also used in underwater environments.

What do regular people want from robots? Some people would like robots to perform tasks around the house. One home robot on the market now is Roomba, a turtle-shaped robot that slowly vacuums (用真空吸尘器打扫) its way around the room.4.A robot that washes the windows and does the dishes could make a small fortune!

5.. Surely they will continue to explore the ocean, analyze the surface of distance planets, and build our cars and computers. But what else? Will more robots drive our cars for us? Will they do our laundry? Will they do our gardening? Perhaps. When someone invents that window-cleaning robot, they will be rewarded by a grateful population.

A. What if a robot could assess and fix the situation?

B. Robots will play a more important role in the future.

C. It senses walls and turns to avoid stairs and objects on the floor

D. They are also used to gather information on geographical changes in volcanoes.

E. They can perform maintenance (保持) on oil drilling platforms and explore the ocean floors.

F. These arms move in many directions and perform precise and repetitive tasks with ease.

G. ROVs can have cameras, sensors and other devices that provide hard-to-obtain information.

Myth: If you cut your hair, it will grow long faster.

Truth: That’s not true. “Your hair isn’t like a lawn or a rosebush, where cutting can stimulate fresh growth,” says Phillip Kingsley. The length of your hair is genetically determined. When it reaches a certain length, it stops growing. When you clear up the dead split ends, this make your hair look healthier, but not necessarily longer.

Myth: If you skip meals, you lose weight fast.

Truth: There’s no truth in this advice. Not only will you lose weight by starving yourself, but according to Carol Ann Rinzler, this may actually cause you to gain weight. Rinzler reasons that missing a meal causes your metabolism(新陈代谢) to slow down so that you burn food more slowly. This only makes you feel hungrier and by the time you finally do reach the table you will probably eat more food. Strange as it may seem, studies show that eating several small meals and snacks throughout the day is a more healthy way to lose pounds.

Myth: If you swallow gum，it will stay inside your stomach for seven years.

Truth: Actually, it takes just a few days for gum to make its exit---not seven years, says NeiIzenberg, M. D., editor of Kids Health Organization. But because gum is made of the same thing as rubber, it cannot be fully digested in your stomach--- so if you gum up the works on a regular basis, you might find yourself in a sticky situation.

Myth: The best way to stop a nosebleed is to lift your head back.

Truth: Now that’s bad advice. Bloody noses are caused by broken blood vessels, so while lifting your head back might stop the fluid from rushing out of your nose, it won’t stop the bleeding; you’ll just end up swallowing lots of blood. Your best bet? “Rest quietly. Don’t poke or pick, and the blood will naturally clot (凝结) within a minute or two”. Suggests Dr. Izenberg.

1.The length of your hair is determined by ________

A. cutting it often　　　 　 B. your gene

C. the food you eat　　　　 D. clearing up the dead split ends

2.According to Carol Ann Rinzler, skipping meals will __________.

A. help you lose weight fast

B. help you lose weight slowly

C. cause you to become fatter

D. make you burning food more quickly

3.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?

A. Gum cannot be fully digested in the stomach

B. Gum can stay inside your stomach for seven years if you swallow it

C. Gum can leave your stomach after you swallow in a few days later

D. If you often swallow gum, you might find yourself in a sticky situation
