高三英语语法填空简单题查看答案及解析

The world is too big to take in all at once. To make sense and beauty of it, you have to look at a small part at a time.

In using a camera, you choose a small part through he view finder. You move the camera, “framing” pictures until you see one that pleases you. Then-click! If you make a good choice, your picture will please others, as well as yourself.

“Wherever you are,” says photographer Ernst Haas, “you are surrounded by pictures. The trick is to recognize them.” His photograph of a twist of barbed wire shows what he means.

Mr. Haas tells us of ways to practice seeing. Make a simple frame of black cardboard. Take it out of the doors and look through it at everyday things, large or small, far away or near.

At first you may see nothing to interest you. But soon pictures seem to leap (跳) at you through the frame. Oil floating on water makes a picture in rainbow colors. Three people on the steps of an old house form a picture that seems to tells a story.

Did you notice such things before you used the frame? Perhaps not. But, with practice, you soon do not need its help. You see things as artists do. Everywhere, shapes and colors catch your eye. Your mind takes “snapshots (快照)” of their patterns. Then, if you wish, you can share what you see by taking a photograph or by making a drawing or a painting.

Sometimes it’s fun to “see small”. Did you ever notice the design of the seeds in sliced bananas? Have you looked deep inside a lily? Or seen the starburst in the center of a wet ice cube?

Do you see colors as they really are? When you paint tree trunks, you would make them brown or black. But tree trunks are really gray, purple, yellow-green—almost any color except brown or black!

Do you notice detail? Doing so can be in many ways. Remembering what you see is often useful, too. Practice can help you.

A trick for helping you to remember detail is the double take. Look—don’t look—then look again.

1.What does the underlined word “trick” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?

A. joke B. magic

C. habit D. skill

2.What does the author want to tell us?

A. The better you learn to see, the more alive you are.

B. Walking in the country, you should look closely at the trunks.

C. A branch with a few leaves fills the frame with a beautiful design.

D. Close your eyes and try to remember how it looks.

3.Which of the fallowing is true according to the text?

A. When you paint trees, you would make them gray.

B. Glance at a bill and you remember how it looked.

C. Seeing is one way of living.

D. Give a second look and you remember all the detail.

4.What is the main idea of the text?

A. The world is too big to travel around.

B. Look around—and see!

C. Wherever you are, a camera is important.

D. A good way to see is to carry a camera

Nature is full of color, from rainbows and roses to butterfly wings and peacock tails. Even the fruits and vegetables you eat have different colors: blue blueberries, red strawberries, green broccoli, and orange carrots.

Plant and animals often use color to attract attention. The substances responsible for these colors belong to a class of chemical called antioxidants(抗氧化物). Plants make antioxidant to protect themselves from the sun's ultraviolet(紫外线)light.

Ultraviolet light causes chemicals called free radicals(自由基)to form within plant cells. They can destroy parts of plant. Free radicals also have damaging effects on human beings. Some of these effects like wrinkled skin can be seen. The damage is caused by the free radicals attacking cells in our bodies. Certain cancers and heart disease are linked to free radicals.

Our bodies have natural defences for fighting off free radicals. While we are young, our defences are pretty strong. However, they get weaker as we get older. The body’s built-in defences can only go so far without extra help.

The key to fighting free radicals with fruits and vegetables is to mix and match colors. It’s like sunscreen(防晒霜)for the inside of your body. Go for a range of very bright colors. Colorful foods contain hundreds of healthy chemicals not found anywhere else.

Research into how chemicals in blueberries affect the brain's function in rats suggests that these chemicals may help our own brains work more efficiently.

Don't just blame the sun. Ultraviolet light isn't the only source of free radicals. If you breathe polluted air such as smog, automobile exhaust(废气), or wasted gas from a factory, you take in chemicals that also cause such damage. And, the body itself produces free radicals as it processes food.

1.Which of the following NOT true?

A．Antioxidants are responsible for plant colors.

B．Plants use color to attract attention.

C．Antioxidants help free radicals to attack plants.

D．Antioxidants can protect plants from ultraviolet light.

2.In which order do the following facts occur?

a .Wrinkled skin can be seen

b .Ultraviolet light causes free radicals to form

c .Free radicals damage cells in our bodies

d .The sun gives out ultraviolet light

A．a,b,c,d　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 B．d,b,a,c

C．c,a,d,b　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 D．d,b,c,a

3. We need extra help for fighting off free radicals from fruits and vegetables because ____.

A．our defences get weaker as we get older

B．our bodies’ defences are not natural

C．we are too young to defend ourselves

D．our bodies’ built-in defences can only go away

4.Which of the following can NOT cause free radicals to form?

A．Ultraviolet light from the sun

B．Colorful food

C．Polluted air

D．The body itself

The world is full of distractions. Unfortunately, the world also requires us to work. Coping with the first while still doing enough of the second is … sorry, where am I?

Ah, yes, the world is full of distractions. If you work in an office, it might be emails, phone calls or colleagues with questions to ask. If you are at home, it might be the contents of the fridge or a sudden fixation on dust mites (尘螨) under the sofa. Sometimes it takes even less. If you are sitting and doing work and someone near you says something particularly interesting, that can pull your focus. 1.

So, how can we stay focused in our wandering minds? 2. And put your smartphone and other irrelevant screens away—they attract our attention even if they are off. If you tend to pop on headphones and use music to shut out distractions, avoid listening to anything familiar. Knowing the words or tune well will distract you even more.

3. If you are doing something repetitive like stuffing envelopes or laying bricks, being distracted by listening to music or a podcast or engaging in a conversation with a co-worker can ultimately boost productivity. 4. Jihae Shin, now at the university of Wisconsin-Madison, has found that when people played Minesweeper for five minutes before coming up with new business ideas, they were more creative than those who didn’t play.

5. In general, this is the enemy of productivity: it encourages mistakes, stops us from completing things, promotes forgetfulness and lowers the quality of writing. But when we are trying to come up with creative solutions, task-switching distractions can help prevent "cognitive fixation" on ineffective approaches. So if you are a creative type, try lining up two or more tasks and spend your day switching between them. Or if that doesn’t work, just go play with your phone.

A.Not all distractions are bad, however.

B.Switching between tasks can also help.

C.Creativity can benefit from distraction too.

D.Switching off email or messaging services helps.

E.But you are not good at dealing with distractions.

F.If you have trouble concentrating, I suggest you try the following ideas.

G.If you are not careful, you will end up your day with nothing accomplished.
