We all do it. We make huge plans for New Year's Eve. As the big day approaches, we start building expectations, planning the best night of our lives. And yet, it rarely lives up. After all, how could it? We set unrealistic goals for a single night when many places are crowded and loud, there are tons of noisy drunk people, and an astronomical bill comes at the end of the evening. You're left wondering, "Was it worth it?" Fortunately, all it takes is a little reconsideration of your expectations to make sure this year's big night is one to remember.

If you get smashed on New Year's Eve, it is likely that you won't even remember what you did and whether or not you had fun. That's not saying there's something wrong with having a couple of glasses of wine at midnight. After all, it is a celebration. Just keep it light, since you want to remember the fun you had with your friends and family. After all, do you really want to spend the first day of the new year with drunkenness?

Many people like to spend the holidays with their friends and family. You could reserve a table at a favorite restaurant, but how about staying home and cooking? There's nothing worse than having to shout across the table because the restaurant is so crowded, except maybe waiting in line for an hour or more for that privilege. Never mind the bill will almost always be significantly higher than it would be almost any other night of the year. If you love to cook, you can make a great meal that everyone can enjoy.

A great idea for an at-home New Year's Eve party is wonderful. If it's a large get-together, it might be difficult to have a sit-down meal due to space restrictions, but a buffet is always a good choice. You just need to display the dishes for them to choose as they wish. Consider your space and guests' comfort when deciding what to serve.

1.Why do our huge plans for New Year's Eve usually fail?

A. We waste too much money on dinner.

B. There are drunken people everywhere.

C. Every place is crowded with people.

D. We pin too much on a single night.

2.Which of the following can replace the underlined word "smashed" in Paragraph 2?

A. Tired.　　 B. Drunk.

C. Bored.　　 D. Excited.

3.What did the author suggest doing to spend holidays with your friends and family?

A. Treating them at home.

B. Inviting them to dinner outside.

C. Waiting in line for a favorite restaurant.

D. Booking a great meal that everyone can enjoy.

4.What should you do if your home is not big enough?

A. Try to arrange a sit-down meal for your friends.

B. Serve a small meal according to your space.

C. Let your friends help themselves to dishes.

D. Consider your guests' comfort only.

When we see well, we do not think about our eyes very often. It is only when we cannot see perfectly that we realize how important our eyes are.

People who are near-sighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes, and everything else seems blurry (=unclear). Many people who do a lot of work, such as writing, reading and sewing become near-sighted.

People who are far-sighted suffer from just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty in reading a book unless they hold it at arm’s length. If they want to do much reading, they must get glasses, too.

Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. They have what is called astigmatism (散光). This, too, can be corrected by glasses. Some people’s eyes become cloudy because of cataracts (白内障). Long ago these people often became blind. Now, however, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them.

Having two good eyes is important for judging distances. Each eye sees things from a slightly different angle. To prove this to yourself, look at an object out of one eye; then look at the same object out of your other eye. You will find the object’s relation to the background and other things around it has changed. The difference between these two different eye views helps us to judge how far away an object is. People who have only one eye cannot judge distance as people with two eyes.

1.When things far away seem indistinct(模糊不清) , one is probably____.

A. near-sighted　　　 B. far-sighted

C. astigmatic 　　 　　 D. suffering from cataracts

2.The underlined word suffer in the third paragraph probably means_____.

A. experience　 　 B. imagine

高三英语单项填空中等难度题查看答案及解析

We were told for years that positive thinking was the key to achieving our goals. Now more and more evidence suggests exactly the opposite: that spending a lot of time thinking about your hopes and dreams may make you less likely to put in the work required to actually achieve those dreams. So if positivity is out, what should we replace it with?

New York University psychologist Gabriele Oettingen talked about a four-step plan she’s come up with from her years of research. Oettigen explained the plan as WOOP.

Wish: First, define your goal. “Think about a wish that is dear to you,” Oettingen said. “What is it you really want? This could be running a marathon or losing a certain amount of weight.” Your wish doesn’t have to be huge; it just has to be real, something you truly want.

Outcome: Keeping your goal in mind, ask yourself: If this wish of mine is realized, what is the best possible outcome? “Very often, it is a feeling,” Oettingen said, “You define that outcome, and you imagine that outcome.”

Obstacles (障碍): After you’re let yourself daydream for a little while about what it will feel like when your goal is accomplished, bring your mind back down to reality. “Then you sat, ‘What is it in me that holds me back from experiencing that wish, that outcome?’” Oettinger said. “Very often it’s an emotion, it’s those same old habits. And you imagine that obstacle.”

Plan: “Once you’re imagined that obstacle,” Oettingen said, “you’ll understand what you need to do to overcome it.” If this obstacle pops up, then you’ll do something to get over it and keep going after your goal.

Oettingen’s research has shown that this method has helped people eat more fruits and vegetables; it’s also helped students achieve better grades in school, and it has even helped people act less insecure in their romantic relationships.

1.In the traditional opinion, what is the key to achieving our goals?

A. Positive thinking.　　 B. Enough evidence.

C. Opposite suggestions.　　 D. Replacement of positivity.

2.The word “reality” in Paragraph 5 probably refers to the fact that ________.

A. you have imagined more than you can do

B. you are held back by some obstacles to achieve

C. you have never experienced such a wish or outcome

D. your emotion contributes to forming your same old habits

3.The examples in the last paragraph are used to ________.

A. prove WOOP’s effectiveness

B. encourage readers to be positive

C. offer more possible practical outcomes

D. attract more people to apply this method

4.The method WOOP works mainly because you ________.

A. have a strong wish　　 B. keep a goal in mind

C. come up with a plan　　 D. overcome an obstacle
