UNIQUE AND WEIRD NEW YEAR EVE TRADITIONS
Germany
In some parts of Germany, they do bleigiessen, or lead (铅)pouring. Pour a dollop(团)of molten lead in
cold water and whatever shape forms may be telling about the year to come. A heart shape, naturally, means love
will come your way. A crown predicts wealth and fortune. A star indicates happiness. But if you see a cross in the
lead? You're as good as dead!
Latin America
If you're in Latin America, make sure you have some colorful underpants to ring in the new year. End — of —
the — year partiers put on colorful underwear to ensure certain types of outcomes for the following year. Red for
love and yellow for success.
Naples, Italy
Neapolitans like throwing things out of windows, at least on New Year's Eve. Furniture, kitchen machines,
grandma. Well, maybe not the last one. Let's hope not, anyway. This tradition is meant to symbolize an out — with
— the — old gesture and getting a brand new beginning for the new year. These days people are a bit more mindful
about what they toss down to the street below.
Spain
In 1909, winegrowers in the Alicante region of Spain had a brilliant idea: start and promote an annual tradition
that would involve people having to buy and eat more grapes. One must cat 12 grapes on New Year's Eve to
encourage prosperity for the coining year. Now, it's u popular custom in Iberia. But the problem is that one has to
cat a grape for each bell strike at midnight.

Remember Vitainwater’s “free of rolling screen for a year” challenge that dared people to be free from
smart phones for a whole year will win $ 100,000? Well, Elana Mugdan, a New York woman, has been into it for
eight months, and just four months away from claiming grand prize.
Vitaminwater made news headlines last December when it announced its unique challenge. Thousands of
people applied to be chosen as the perfect candidate to spend a year without touching their smart phones, but in the
end, the only person who got to try and survive for an entire year without a handheld smart phone was Elana
Mugdan, a 29-year-old fiction writer from Queens, New York. Eight months into the challenge, she claims it has
3
been a free and eye-opening experience that shows her just how dependent she becomes on her smart phone. Even
though there are times when she misses her handheld smart phone, she plans to go on living without it even after
the challenge ends, because she really doesn’t want to go back to days when she abused it, wasted time, stayed up
all hours of the night on it, and was obsessed with social media.
But not having access to her smart phone really made certain situations a lot harder than she could have
imagined them before. “Many people did me a favor. However, once, I almost got stranded (滞留) in the SeaTac
airport because the phone number I’d written down was wrong, and I had no way of referring to the right one, no
way of calling a cab, and no one in the state who could help me,” the young writer said.
Another time, her car’s “check engine” light turned on while she was driving in an unfamiliar area at night.
She couldn’t use her phone’s GPS location feature, r even check what the light meant on Google or find a nearby
car repair shop. Still, she learned to overcome these situations. And now she claims the last eight months of
phone-free life have been one of the best adventures of her life and that she’ll keep it for another four months.
4. What’s the challenge “free of rolling screen for a year”?
A. People free from smart phones can live a richer life.
B. People living a telephone-free life can be awarded every year.
C. People living without computers for a year will win grand prize.
D. People spending a year free from smart phones will get a reward.
5. Which phrase can replace the underlined part “obsessed with” in paragraph 2?
A. satisfied with B. accustomed to
C. addicted to D. popular with
6. What does Elana Mugdan mainly want to express in paragraph 3?
A. It’s fantastic to have someone to help her all the way.
B. It’s unimaginable to lose her phone number on the way.
C. It’s unnecessary to refer to information with a smart phone.
D. It’s difficult to get out of the trouble without a smart phone.
7. What can we learn about Elana Mudgan?
A. She couldn’t live without a smart phone.
B. She finds no one can help her in the adventure.
C. She has not won the grand $ 100,000 prize yet.
D. She used to use her smart phone to write fiction.
C
Most new runners assume that the best way to improve is simply to run greater and greater distances. While
it’s true that going farther and faster will improve your running skills, most coaches and trainers will advise some
level of strength training as well. Focusing on your core is a common suggestion. A recent study seems to back
this up. In the Journal of Biomechanics, researchers investigated a symptom that has long confused runners from
beginners to experienced ones. A good number of runners, 14 percent to be exact, experience gradual lower back
pain. The results of the new study seem to suggest that weak deep core muscles might be to blame. When these
muscles aren’t strong enough, the study found, muscles on other areas of the body kick in to keep the runner
up-right, eventually leading to back pain.
To understand the role that these muscles play, the researchers had eight volunteers with minimal running
experience run along an indoor track. High-speed cameras and 3D motion detectors analyzed which muscles
moved, and how much. Once they created a working computer model for each runner, the scientists imitated what
would happen if certain deep muscles were weaker, or shut off completely. As it turns out, when a person can’t
use their deep core muscles very well, their bodies still want (and need) to maintain a good running form, and uses
surface muscles to do so.
What’s wrong with that? A muscle is a muscle, right? Not exactly. While the surface muscles are often
targeted in workouts - they give you a six-pack (六块腹肌), after all - they are pretty useless when it comes to
supporting your spine (脊柱). The deeper core muscles, which essentially lie beneath and can’t be seen from the
outside, do all the heavy spinal lifting.
It’s important to note that even when you’ve made these muscles super strong, you won’t likely notice visible
results. But they will probably help you run better and definitely help prevent potential back pain. Perhaps
throwing a nice long plank (平板支撑) may work.

8. Why do most new runners want to run farther and faster?
A. Because they think it can improve running skills.
B. Because some coaches and trainers advise them to do so.
C. Because a recent study proves it to be helpful.
D. Because it’s a kind of useful strength training.
9. What does the new study show us when people do the running?
A. 14 percent of the runners have weak muscles.
B. The muscles on other areas lead to back pain.
C. Strong deep core muscles can prevent back pain.
D. The beginning runners usually have weak core muscles.
10. What happens when people do the running?
A. A working computer model can be created.
B. Certain deep muscles become weaker.
C. They use both deep and surface muscles.
D. Deep core muscles probably function first.
11. What can we infer from the text?
A. Doing a long plank can benefit the runners.
B. The spine is supported by the deep muscles.
C. Training the six-pack is useless.
D. Super strong muscles can’t be seen.
D
Over a million children have developed some form of intellectual (智力) disability over the past two
decades after being exposed to chemicals including flame retardants, pesticides, lead, and mercury, a study has
revealed.
The study focused on the four chemicals, which can be crossed from a mother to her unborn baby through the
placenta ( 胎 盘 ) and cause neurodevelopmental damage. The researchers looked at data from past studies,
including blood samples taken from women of childbearing age and 5-year-olds.
Over the period, flame retardants, resulted in 738,860 cases of intellectual disability and an estimated 162
million lost IQ (智商)points, followed by lead at 330,684 cases, pesticides at 111,830, and mercury at 8,860. In
recent years, pesticides and flame retardants have overtaken lead and mercury as the chemicals responsible for the
biggest loss of IQ among children.
The researchers believe this is due to regulations cutting down the use of these chemicals. For instance, lead
has been banned from gasoline, paint and drinking water systems in the U.S. and plants are not allowed to pump
out mercury.
The researchers acknowledged limitations to their study, including that the exposure-response relationships
might not relate to all populations. Positively, they found a huge drop in the estimated loss of IQ points among
children.
Lead researcher Abigail Gaylord, commented: "Our findings suggest that our efforts to reduce exposure to
heavy metals are paying off, but that harmful exposures in general continue to represent a terrible risk to people's
physical, mental, and economic health. "Unfortunately, the minimal policies in place to remove pesticides and
flame retardants are clearly not enough," she said.
She also added. Frequently opening windows to let persistent chemicals found in furniture electronics, and
carpeting escape, and eating certified organic produce can educe exposure to these harmful things"
12. Which contributes most to the loss of children's IQ?
A. Flame retardants. B. Pesticide.
C. Lead. D. Mercury.
13. Where does the passage probably come from?
A. A school report. B. A science fiction.
C. A scientific research. D. A chemistry book.
7
14. What is the drawback of the research mentioned?
A. It has received bad response from all populations.
B. It has no previous information to refer to.
C. It covers only part of the population.
D. It is not supported by government policies.
15. What's the best title for this passage?
A. Four chemicals harming children.
B. Regulations cutting down the use of heavy metals.
C. Environment risking people's physical and mental health.
D. Children IQ lowered by exposure to harmful chemicals.

School bus drivers transport kids to and from school. 16. Along with their transportation duties, bus drivers
commonly assume other roles in the school district.
The most obvious responsibility of a school bus driver is to transport students to and from school or activities
in a timely and safe manner. This includes showing up to each home or stopping at the scheduled time and
informing parents of any changes in pick-up or drop-off times. The driver also has to drive safely in all types of
weather. 17.
School bus drivers not only have to drive safely and watch the road, but they also normally have responsibility
for the conduct of students on their buses. 18. Monitoring student behavior and stopping any horseplay are
immediate duties. In some cases, students are assigned (分配) seats in the front of the bus if they have regular
behavioral problems.
19. This includes regular checks on brakes, tires, turning signals and mechanical ( 机 械 的 ) equipment.
School districts often have regular daily checklists whereby drivers must confirm that they have checked on various
safety items. If problems are detected with any of these components, the bus is normally taken in for repair work
and the driver uses an alternative bus until his normal one is ready to go again.
Each day, school bus drivers have to log (记录) a variety of activities. 20. They also log the miles they drive
on their routes. Additionally, drivers make notes when fuel is filled and the amount. These daily logs help ensure
accuracy in routes.
A. It’s extremely important.
B. They are usually tasked with clean-up duty.
C. It’s really hard to control kids’ on-bus behavior.
D. They report the number of riders on their buses.
E. They also take school sports teams and other groups on trips.
F. Regular drivers are responsible for monitoring the safety of their buses.
G. Buses have large mirrors over the front window that give drivers the ability to see the entire bus.

smart phones for a whole year will win $ 100,000? Well, Elana Mugdan, a New York woman, has been into it for

文章大意:本文是记叙文。文章主要讲述了一个名叫 Elana Mugdan 的纽约人参加特殊挑战的故事。她
如果在一年之内不用智能手机就可以获得 10 万美元的大奖。她现在已经挺过了八个月,再坚持四个月就可
以把大奖收入囊中。
4.D 细节理解题。根据第一段第一句 Remember Vitainwater’s “free of rolling screen for a year” challenge that
dared people to be free from smart phones for a whole year will win $ 100,000?“还记得 Vitainwater 的“一年不滚
动屏幕”挑战吗?这个挑战挑战的是那些一整年不用智能手机的人。”可知,这个挑战是指人们如果在一年之
内不用智能手机就可以获得 10 万美元的大奖。故选 D。
5.C 词义猜测题。上文提到 Elana Mugdan 在参加比赛之前常常滥用手机,浪费时间,整夜不睡,故推知 Elana
Mugdan 曾对社会媒体着迷。obsessed with 意为“沉迷于”。故选 C。
6.D 推理判断题。在第三段中,Elana Mugdan 因为写错了电话号码,又没有智能手机跟外界取得联系,所
以滞留在 SeaTac 机场。由此可知,她主要是想表达没有手机让她很难摆脱困难。故选 D。
7.C 推理判断题。根据第一段第二句 Well, Elana Mugdan, a New York woman, has been into it for eight
months, and just four months away from claiming grand prize.“嗯,一个纽约女人,Elana Mugdan 已经进入了 8 个
月,只有四个月的时间来获得大奖。”和最后一段最后一句 And now she claims the last eight months of
phone-free life have been one of the best adventures of her life and that she’ll keep it for another four months.“现在
她声称,过去 8 个月的无手机生活一直是她一生中最具活力的冒险之一,她将继续维持 4 个月。”可知,Elana
Mugdan 已经坚持了八个月不用手机,再坚持四个月就可以把大奖收入囊中,所以到目前为止她还没得到这
个大奖。故选 C。
食用更多的葡萄,故 D 项正确。

A. Doing a long plank can benefit the runners.
B. The spine is supported by the deep muscles.
C. Training the six-pack is useless.
D. Super strong muscles can’t be seen.
文章大意:本文是说明文。最近的一项新的研究表明,跑步时是深层的核心肌肉保证我们沉重的脊柱
的挺立。因此文章建议做力量训练,锻炼深层的核心肌肉力量,这样才能防止跑步者背部疼痛。
8.A 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Most new runners assume that the best way to improve is simply to run greater
and greater distances. While it’s true that going farther and faster will improve your running skills,…”可知,大多
数新跑步者认为,要提高跑步技能,最好方法是跑步速度更快、距离更远。 故选 A 项。
9.C 推理判断题。14%的跑步者会经历背部疼痛。第一段中关于一项新研究的介绍中分析了原因,“The results
of the new study seem to suggest that weak deep core muscles might be to blame. When these muscles aren’t
strong enough, the study found, muscles on other areas of the body kick in to keep the runner up-right, eventually
leading to back pain. (这项新研究的结果似乎表明,脆弱的深层核心肌肉可能是罪魁祸首。 研究发现,当
这些肌肉不够强壮时,身体其他部位的肌肉会起作用,跑步者保持向上的姿势,最终导致背部疼痛)”可以
推断,这项新的研究表明,跑步者背部疼痛是因为深层核心肌肉太弱。如果深层核心肌肉强壮,就能够预
防跑步时背部疼痛。故选 C 项。
10.D 推理判断题。根据第三段中关于跑步时表层肌肉和深层核心肌肉所起作用的研究的描述,“While the
surface muscles are often targeted in workouts… they are pretty useless when it comes to supporting your spine (脊
柱). The deeper core muscles, …do all the heavy spinal lifting. ( 虽然在锻炼中人们看到的是表层肌肉,但是
当涉及到支撑你的脊柱时,表层肌肉是无用的。 更深层的核心肌肉负责所有的繁重的脊椎挺立的任务。)”,
因此可以推断,跑步时先起到作用的可能是深层核心肌肉。故选 D 项。
11.A 推理判断题。根据第四段中“But they will probably help you run better and definitely help prevent potential
back pain. Perhaps throwing a nice long plank (平板支撑) may work. ”可知,作者认为做平板支撑对跑步者有
好处,可以提高深层的核心肌肉力量,能够帮助你跑得更好,有助于预防背部疼痛。由此判断出平板支撑
使跑步者受益。 故选 A 项。
D
Over a million children have developed some form of intellectual (智力) disability over the past two
decades after being exposed to chemicals including flame retardants, pesticides, lead, and mercury, a study has
revealed.
The study focused on the four chemicals, which can be crossed from a mother to her unborn baby through the
placenta ( 胎 盘 ) and cause neurodevelopmental damage. The researchers looked at data from past studies,
including blood samples taken from women of childbearing age and 5-year-olds.
Over the period, flame retardants, resulted in 738,860 cases of intellectual disability and an estimated 162
million lost IQ (智商)points, followed by lead at 330,684 cases, pesticides at 111,830, and mercury at 8,860. In
recent years, pesticides and flame retardants have overtaken lead and mercury as the chemicals responsible for the
biggest loss of IQ among children.
The researchers believe this is due to regulations cutting down the use of these chemicals. For instance, lead
19
has been banned from gasoline, paint and drinking water systems in the U.S. and plants are not allowed to pump
out mercury.
The researchers acknowledged limitations to their study, including that the exposure-response relationships
might not relate to all populations. Positively, they found a huge drop in the estimated loss of IQ points among
children.
Lead researcher Abigail Gaylord, commented: "Our findings suggest that our efforts to reduce exposure to
heavy metals are paying off, but that harmful exposures in general continue to represent a terrible risk to people's
physical, mental, and economic health. "Unfortunately, the minimal policies in place to remove pesticides and
flame retardants are clearly not enough," she said.
She also added. Frequently opening windows to let persistent chemicals found in furniture electronics, and
carpeting escape, and eating certified organic produce can educe exposure to these harmful things"
12. Which contributes most to the loss of children's IQ?
A. Flame retardants. B. Pesticide.
C. Lead. D. Mercury.
13. Where does the passage probably come from?
A. A school report. B. A science fiction.
C. A scientific research. D. A chemistry book.
14. What is the drawback of the research mentioned?
A. It has received bad response from all populations.
B. It has no previous information to refer to.
C. It covers only part of the population.
D. It is not supported by government policies.
15. What's the best title for this passage?
A. Four chemicals harming children.
B. Regulations cutting down the use of heavy metals.
C. Environment risking people's physical and mental health.
D. Children IQ lowered by exposure to harmful chemicals.
文章大意:本文是一篇说明文,介绍了研究发现接触有害化学物质会导致儿童的智商下降。
12.A 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Over the period, flame retardants, resulted in 738,860 cases of intellectual
disability and an estimated 162 million lost IQ (智商)points, followed by lead at 330,684 cases, pesticides at
111,830, and mercury at 8,860.”可知,在此期间,阻燃剂导致 738860 例智力障碍,约 1.62 亿智商下降,其次
是铅 330684 例,农药 111830 例,汞 8860 例,由此可知,阻燃剂是导致儿童智商下降最多的化学物质,故
A 项正确。
13.C 推理判断题。通读全文特别是根据第一段内容可知,本文主要介绍的是研究发现接触阻燃剂、杀虫剂、
铅和汞等化学物质会导致儿童智力下降,这属于科学范畴,因此文章最有可能出自于科学研究,故 C 项正
确。
14.C 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“The researchers acknowledged limitations to their study, including that the
exposure-response relationships might not relate to all populations.”可知,研究人员承认他们的研究存在局限性,
包括这种暴露与反应的关系可能并不适用于所有人群,由此可知,这项研究的缺点是它只涵盖了部分人群,
故 C 项正确。
15.D 主旨大意题。通读全文,特别是根据第一段内容可知,一项研究显示,在过去 20 年里,超过 100 万
儿童在接触了阻燃剂、杀虫剂、铅和汞等化学物质后出现了某种形式的智力障碍,因此文章主要介绍的是
研究发现接触阻燃剂、杀虫剂、铅和汞等化学物质会导致儿童智力下降,即:接触有害化学物质会导致儿
童的智商下降,故 D 项正确。

and the driver uses an alternative bus until his normal one is ready to go again.
Each day, school bus drivers have to log (记录) a variety of activities. 20. They also log the miles they drive
on their routes. Additionally, drivers make notes when fuel is filled and the amount. These daily logs help ensure

文章大意:本文是记叙文。文章讲述了《新民晚报》编辑曹正文对冰心等许多文化人物的采访并邀请
他们为报纸撰稿,他后来选择并编辑了他们的生活故事,并将其编入《文化偶像访谈记录》一书,传递了“生
活中最令人愉快的事情就是读书”的信念。
41. belief 考查名词。句意:“没有什么比读书更能使我们开心了。”冰心在 1987 年表达了这种信念。this 后
面使用名词,believe 的名词是 belief,它在 this 后面,应使用单数形式。故填 belief。
42. firmly 考查副词。句意:娱乐新闻增加了,这很好,但是我坚信生活中最令人愉快的事情就是读书。副
词作状语修饰形容词。故填 firmly。
43. took 考查动词时态。句意:曹对冰心的采访发生在《自娱自乐》这本书出版大约两年之后。由句意及 was
published 可知,主句中的谓语 take place,应使用一般过去时。故填 took。
44. weakening 考查动名词。句意:它批评电视削弱了书籍所代表的理性思维。介词 for 后面使用动词时,应
将动词改为动名词的形式。故填 weakening。
45. the
考查冠词。句意:为了鼓励更多的人阅读,曹在 1986 年的《新民晚报》上推出了“阅读的乐趣”部分。此处
为特指意义,应使用定冠词 the。故填 the。

引导。故填 when。
47. to write 考查非谓语动词。句意:在这个栏目传承和越来越受人欢迎的 22 年中,他采访了许多文化人物
并邀请他们为报纸撰稿。invite sb. to do sth.“邀请某人去做某事”。故填 to write。
48. spiritual 考查形容词。句意:借助曹的努力,今天的读者可以难得一见的是典型的中国知识分子的精神
世界,一个朴素,敢于牺牲和无私的世界。形容词在句中作定语修饰 world。故填 spiritual。
49. in/under 考查介词。句意:这本书不仅告诉我们他们在阅读中有多快乐,而且还告诉我们他们在困难的
环境中的生活如何。分析句子结构可知,此处需要填入介词。in/under difficult conditions“在困难的环境中”。
故填 in/under。
50. ourselves
考查反身代词。句意:换句话说,这本书除了教我们如何阅读以及阅读什么,还教我们如何让自己表现得
更优秀一些。反身代词通常是用来加强语气的,意思是“亲自,本身”,根据句意可知,此处使用反身代词在
人称和数上要与 us 保持一致。故填 ourselves。

One day, my English friend Tom and I had planned to make a dragon kite. First we find two straight stick of
the same length. We tied them with a piece for string into the shape of a cross. Then we tied the four ends of the
sticks together. After that, we drew a beautifully dragon on a piece of cloth, spread it, glued it around the string. At
last, we stuck a tail making of paper to one of the corners and tied a long string to a centre. On the next wind day
we took the kite to a hill near their house and flew it.
【答案】1. 删除 planned 前的 had 2. find → found3. stick → sticks4. for → of5. beautifully → beautiful
6. glued 前面加 and7. making → made8. a → the9. wind → windy10. their → our
文章大意:这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者和朋友放风筝的经历。
1. 考查时态。本文的整体时态为一般过去时,开篇提到 one day“有一天”可知,讲述的是过去发生的事情,
用一般过去时即可,故删除 planned 前的 had。
2. 考查时态。根据语境和文章整体时态,用一般过去时,故 find 改为 found。
3. 考查名词的数。stick 为可数名词,前面有 two 修饰,所以要变复数形式,故 stick 改为 sticks。
4. 考查介词。“一根绳子”是 a piece of string,故 for 改为 of。
5. 考查形容词。此处应用形容词修饰名词 dragon,故将 beautifully 改为 beautiful。
6. 考查连词。drew, spread, glued 为并列谓语,要在最后两个谓语之间用 and 连接,故在 glued 前面加 and。
7. 考查非谓语动词。分析句子可知,此处是非谓语动词作后置定语,tail 和 make 之间为被动关系,所以用
过去分词 made,故 making 改为 made。
8. 考查冠词。结合上下文可知,此处是特指那个风筝的中心,应用定冠词,故将 a 改为 the。
9. 考查形容词。此处应用形容词修饰名词 day,故 wind 改为 windy。
10. 考查代词。句子主语是 we,指代不一致,要把 their 改为 our,故 their 改为 our。

【范文】
Dear Jack,
How is everything going with you? Knowing that you plan to work in our city for a period of time during the
summer holiday, I am writing to tell about an advertisement that you might be interested in.
The other day I saw an ad in a popular website which says Xinhua English Training School is advertising for
several native English teachers with a university degree in education or other related fields. Besides, a foreign
expert certification is required. In my opinion, you are qualified for that job. To learn about more detailed
information, you can call 8616872995566 or send an email at office @engkishlearning. org.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
