Life Lessons

Life is not easy when you are pursuing something worthwhile and ready to learn from the best experiences. 1. Here are some life lessons which people will learn the hard way in majority of cases.

It takes consistent time and effort to be successful in any area. However, People usually get discouraged when it takes more time than they thought it would. At this time, people refer only to people who have already achieved what you want to be, which most people fail to do. Look at any successful person and you’ll notice one thing common in all of them. They took time to learn and mastered their skills like no one else. 2.

Be brave to take the road less travelled. In our whole life, we always want to follow the same path that everyone suggests, do the same things everyone does, take the same career path everyone takes, wear the same clothes everyone wears, and hang out with the same people we work with. 3. But when you get bored of life, you will realize that you are not meant to do what everyone does and that your destiny is different from anyone else’s out there in the world. But the price you pay to realize this is high because it takes a great amount of courage to follow your own path.

You don’t have to live your life in a way society wants you to. 4. Parents sometimes force their children to select a career they don’t want because other children have selected that career. Worst of all, people follow them without even asking. There is no harm in old rituals（惯例） and beliefs but when you pursue them before your interest, sooner or later you’ll realize that you should first do what you think is right.

5. However, if you are smart enough to learn early and wish not to waste your precious time learning them the hard way, learn them now and apply it to your life as soon as possible.

A. You have to break the rules sometimes.

B. After all, life lessons are always learned the hard way.

C. There is no elevator to success; you have to take the stairs.

D. The reason why we follow others is that we are scared to fail.

E. It always takes tests and then fails us to learn anything worthwhile.

F. The general rule goes that the harder you try, the greater results you get.

G. Many old beliefs are being performed these days and are followed blindly.

How to be Cool on Instagram（抓拍神器）

Instagram is a game. Gaining likes and followers is no easy task unless you’re a beauty. But your social media luck is about to change, because a social media talent can help you to step up your Instagram game.

1.. My teenage sister, Grace, routinely breaks 150 likes on Instagram, no sweat, because she just gets it. 2..

1. Timing is everything

You can’t post photos willy-nilly. So when do you actually post? Sunday evening is “prime time” for likes, because everyone is bored and not doing homework. And it also implies to the real world.

2. 3.

People don’t care how much you’re feeling your look. No one needs to see eight pictures from your date night out. Remember, as my sister recommends, “You can’t give the people too much or they will be over it very quickly.”

3. Selfies（自拍）have strict rules

Basically, don’t just go around throwing up random selfies like the world is ending tomorrow. It’s not a cute look. Here’s what my sister had to say about selfies: Be spontaneous（自然率真）and fun. TBTs (Throwback Thursday) have to actually be TBTs. 4.. Instead, use TBTs for cute baby pictures and awkward middle school photos. It’s funny, according to the resident teens.

4. Putting your account on private is unnecessary

You should set your profile to public because you should have nothing to hide. Also, it gets you more followers, which is what you’re after. 5.. For it’s Instagram, after all. In the wise words of the teen, “Life is too short. Eat dessert first.”

A.Here’s what to do and, more importantly, what not to do

B.Most importantly, have fun and don’t take it too seriously

C.Gaining likes and followers is very interesting

D.Teenagers are tastemakers

E.Don’t post too much

F.Don’t be selfish

G.You aren’t fooling anyone if you TBT a recent photo

高三英语七选五中等难度题查看答案及解析

How would you like an easy way to earn $2,500? All you have to do is to sit around and wait for your meals. There's a catch however. You have to stay in a chicken cage with a stranger for a whole week. There are no books or television or radio for amusement. You can't leave until the week is up. And a camera will be recording your every move.

Two people actually took the job. The idea came from Rob Thompson, a video artist. He wanted to make a film about the way animals are  treated. His goal was  to raise people's awareness of the living conditions of animals that are raised for food.

He decided to pay $5,000 out of his own savings to two people who were willing to live like chickens for a week.

To Rob’s surprise, quite a few people answered his advertisement. He had interviewed and selected Eric, a 24-year-old restaurant worker, and Para, a 24-year-old chemist. The plan was for them to spend seven days together in a chicken cage that was six feet long and three feet wide. A camera would record their experiences, which would take place in an art museum.

The week was long and difficult. They slept on a hard wooden floor. They couldn't stand up without hanging their heads. They ate vegetables and drank water from a garden hosepipe. Their only privacy was a toilet surrounded by a curtain. There were no sinks, mirrors, or toothbrushes in the cage. Their only inspiration was the two framed checks that hung on the wall outside the cage. Visitors who came here were warned, “Do not feed the humans.”

Finally it was over, and Para and Eric appeared from their cage. They had survived the week, and they each had a $2,500 check in their hands. When Rob Thompson opened the cage,  Eric  came  out,  changed  into  clean clothes, and ate a chocolate bar right away. “It's great to be able to stand up,” he said. Para just changed her clothes and left. After a week of visitors and reporters watching her, she

didn't want to talk to anyone.

1.What kind of person is Rob Thompson?

A. He is curious about people's personal life.

B. He is kind-hearted to animals.

C. He hates people around.

D. He likes to help poor people.

2.The underlined word “catch” probably means _____.

A. unsolved problem                                  B. surprising wonder

C. unbelievable fact                                    D. hidden difficulty

3.Rob offered the money because he wanted _____ .

A. to see if there were any people who would like to live in a cage

B. to show the public how terrible animals' life could be

C. to make more money by publishing the recorded videotapes

D. to improve housing conditions of working people like Eric

4.Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?

A. Easy Way to Earn $ 2,500.                     B. Do Not Feed the Humans.

C. Living Like a Chicken.                    D. Getting Along Well Anyway.

高三英语完型填空中等难度题查看答案及解析

Life is not easy in senior high school. You’ve got the pressure of studies and exams.

From time to time, you may feel depressed and frustrated. When depression strikes, you have to take measures to fight it. One of the strangest ways to fight depression is to eat salt, scientists have found.

Salt acts as a natural anti-depressant (抗抑郁剂), researchers say. While too much can lead to high blood pressure and heart disease, not enough can cause “psychological(心理的) depressions”, a study has reported.

The study, by researchers at the University of Iowa in the US, discovered that when rats are deficient in salt, they don’t do activities they normally enjoy.

The recommended daily salt intake for an adult is four grams, although experts say the body needs only half as much.

However, most adults in the developed world consume（消耗）around ten grams a day, mainly because their diets contain high salt amounts. Today, 77 percent of US salt intake comes from processed and restaurant foods, like frozen dinners and fast food.

The minerals in salt are required by the body—in small quantities—to help move liquid in and out of cells. But too much can cause diseases, for example high blood pressure.

Today scientists are finding that salt is an addictive substance—almost like a drug.

One sign of addiction is using a substance even when it’s known to be harmful. Many people are told to eat less salt due to health concerns, but they have trouble doing so because they like the taste and find low-salt foods tasteless.

Humans have a long history of eating salt. In the Stone Age, people didn’t need to find salt, because they hunted most of their food, and ate a lot of red meat, which has plenty of salt in it. But when people began to farm, about 10,000 BC, they started to eat mainly grains like rice and wheat, and very little meat. Then they had to find another way to get salt.

1.What does the underlined word "deficient" in the fourth paragraph mean?

A. enough                                B. far from enough

C. more than enough                        D. plenty

2.The major role of salt is to ________.

A. help the body work well

B. help fight against depression

D. help people get rid of an addiction to drugs

D. help people enjoy sugary substances

3.Which of the following statements is true?

A. People have trouble reducing salt because they don't know it is harmful to eat too much of it.

B. Before 10,000 BC, human beings did not need salt.

C. The richer the country is, the more salt is eaten there.

D. Taking more than 4 grams of salt a day can be harmful for an adult's health.

4.What kind of food should people eat more of?

A. Frozen food                            B. Fast food

C. Red meat                                D. Low-salt food
