If you are a student, you may be probably required by your teacher to read quickly in class. You have been taught to skim or scan, to look for key words so as to understand the main idea of the article and the important points in the article. Skimming and scanning is a good strategy when you are pressed for time, such as when you are taking an exam, but today, many people skim and scan everything and they have lost the ability to enjoy reading.

In response to this, something called the "slow reading movement" has become popular. The idea is that people should shut off their computers and mobile phones for half an hour or forty-five minutes each day and enjoy the pleasure reading a good book—slowly! In many cities there are even slow reading clubs where members go to a cafe, not discuss books, but to sit quietly with each other, drink coffee and just read.

Researchers have found that reading slowly, especially books of fiction, helps people concentrate, relax and think about what they are reading. It also helps people empathize.This last point is important. When you read a novel slowly, you get to understand the characters’ emotions and to see the world through their eyes.

Reading, of course, isn't easy. You have to sit still, for one thing. And it can seem boring when compared to the excitement of playing video games. But, for me, reading has been an enduring pleasure in my life. From the age of ten, when I got my first library card, I’ve enjoyed the company of pirates and heroes, of evil criminals and clever detectives, of thousands of interesting people I would have never met in real life. Reading provided me with escape, but it also enabled me to understand the world around me. It was an education in a classroom that had no walls.

In your classroom, you have learned to read “fast”. Outside of the classroom, you should try to learn to read “slowly”. You may be surprised at how much you enjoy it.

1.When you are having an exam, it's acknowledged that ________.

A. reading slowly is the best way

B. reading word for word is a good method

C. reading fast is a good strategy

D. reading casually is a wonderful choice

2.Which of the following is NOT one of the characteristics of "slow reading movement"?

A. Enjoying the pleasure of reading a good book slowly.

B. Helping people refresh and relax.

C. Understanding the characters' emotions more accurately.

D. Getting the main idea of the article quickly.

3.What does the underlined word “empathize” (para.3) mean?

A. Benefit from something.

B. Feel sympathy for somebody.

C. Be interested in something.

D. Share feelings with somebody.

4.Why does the writer call reading “an education in a classroom that had no walls”?

A. Because there is no need to build walls for the books.

B. Because a library card is what you need to enjoy reading in the library.

C. Because reading enables people to better understand the world around them.

D. Because there are thousands of interesting people in the books who can help you escape.

高三英语单项填空中等难度题查看答案及解析

At some point in elementary school, your science teacher may explained to you that there are 365 days in a year because that's how long it takes for Earth to complete one full journey around the sun. What they might not have explained, however, is that it's not exactly 365 days—it’s actually closer to 365. 2421 days.

So, if we want our calendar year to begin right when Earth begins a new turn around the sun, we have to account for roughly an extra quarter of a day each year, or one day every four years. History.com reports that the Egyptians had already been doing this for a while before Europe finally caught on in 46 BC, when Roman Emperor Julius Caesar and astronomer Sosigenes put their heads together to come up with what we now call the Julian calendar, which includes 12 months, 365 days, and an additional ''leap day'' every four years on February 29.

But rounding 0.2421 up to 0.25 each year created an issue, because it didn't quite add up to a full day every four years—and that tiny difference meant that after 128 years, the calendar year ended up starting a day before Earth had completed its journey around the sun. By the 14th century, the calendar year was starting 10 days before Earth finished its orbit.

In 1582, Pope Gregory XIII sought to correct the error by suggesting that we simply skip a leap day every so often. His Gregorian calendar, which we still use today, rules that we skip the leap day during years which can be evenly divided (被整除) by 100 but not by 400. For instance, the year 2000 included a leap day because it can be divided by 100 and 400; the year 2100, on the other hand, will not include a leap day, since it's evenly divided by 100, but not by 400.

Gregory XIII’s correction to Caesar's overcorrection is itself a bit of an under-correction, so we'll probably need to reevaluate our leap day design again in about 10,000 years.

1.What do the underlined words ''put their heads together'' in paragraph 2 mean?

A.Come across each other. B.Bump their heads together.

C.Compete against each other. D.Combine their efforts.

2.According to Gregorian calendar, which year may include a leap day?

A.2100. B.1600.

C.1800. D.2020.

3.What can we learn from the passage?

A.Emperor Julius Caesar was also an astronomer.

B.Today's calendar exactly agrees with the sun's turning.

C.The 10-day early start in calendar will always exist.

D.The Gregorian calendar is not yet the most accurate.

4.What's the purpose of this passage?

A.To point out a mistake made by your science teacher.

B.To explain how long Earth makes a trip around the sun.

C.To explain in detail why the leap day is needed.

D.To explain the reason why we need a calendar.

When you consider what subject to study in college, chances are that you and your parents will think about what you can make out of it after graduation. You will likely ask the question: “Can I find a well-paid job or simply a job with a degree in this in the future?”

This consideration also influences students when they come to choose between studying science or humanities (人文学科) at college. People generally believe that the humanities, which include literature ,　 history, cultural studies and philosophy,　 do not prepare students for a specific vocation (职业). Science subjects, however, are considered vocational courses that produce scientists, engineers and economists (经济学家).

“I've decided to take finance as my college major. My parents and I think this subject will help me get a good job or start a business,” said Huachen Yueru, 17, a science student at Wuxi No. 1 High School.

Even those who choose a liberal arts (文科) education often pick the humanities subject which they think will best help them later find a job.

“I'm going to study Spanish in college, which I believe will open doors to a high-paying job for me,” said Liu Chao, 18, a Senior 2 student at Dalian No 20 High School. He said few of his classmates show interest in subjects like philosophy and history, which are seen as “less promising” in job markets.

The popularity of liberal arts subjects among college students has also been decreasing in the United States. American scholars (学者) and universities are concerned that in the ongoing economic crisis (经济危机) liberal arts subjects will be hit hardest. As money tightens (紧缩), they worry that the humanities may become “a great luxury (奢侈品) that many cannot afford”, according to the New York Times.

1. When you consider what to study in college, what does you and your parents usually think about ?

A. whether you are interested in the subject.

B. if you can lead a happy life.

C. what you can make out of it after graduation.

D .How much you can learn in the college.

2.Why do students show little interest in the subjects, like philosophy or history ?

A .Because they are not interested in them.

B. Because they think these subjects are useless.

C. Because they see these subjects as less-promising in job market.

D. Because they like the science subjects.　

3. What can we infer from the passage ?

A. Humanities are becoming less and less popular with the students.

B. Studying science subjects is sure to find a well-paid job.

C. The humanities in college should be cancelled.

D. The writer thinks those who choose the liberal arts education will choose their favorite subjects.

高三英语七选五中等难度题查看答案及解析

In China, if you are not married by the time you are 30, you are in for trouble: social blame and pressure from family and friends can get you down. And if you are a woman, it’s even worse.

Many young people get married simply to get other people off their backs (免受别人的指责) . This is a serious compromise. One ends up not marrying the ideal partner.

There are, however, a few young people who refuse to compromise: if they can’t find a good marriage partner, they say, they would rather not marry at all.

34-year-old Kate is a university lecturer in English. She said she would not describe herself as celibatarian (独身主义者) but simply a woman who hasn’t come across the right man yet. She has sharp comments for the way in which the old generation looks at marriage.
　　 “Many people think marriage is a duty---to your parents, family and society. Nobody cares if your marriage is happy or not, she said, I think this is very wrong and I intend to live and act according to my own will.”

Happily for her, her parents are open-minded and not lay stress on her. But the same does not apply to her friends. They are constantly trying to get her together with some young man or another. She always refuses politely.
