But because the two big cola companies ---- Coca-Cola and Pepsi Cola are marketed so aggressively, we’ve wondered how big a role taste preference actually plays in brand loyalty. We set up a taste test that challenged people who identified themselves as either Coca-Cola or Pepsi fans: Find your brand in a blind tasting.‎ We invited staff volunteers who had a strong liking for either Coca-Cola or Pepsi, Diet Coke, or Diet Pepsi. These were people who thought they’d have no trouble telling their brand from the other brand.‎ We eventually located 19 regular cola drinkers and 27 diet cola drinkers. Then we fed them four unidentified samples of cola one at a time, regular colas for the one group, diet versions for the other. We asked them to tell us whether each sample was Coke or Pepsi; then we analyzed the records statistically to compare the participants’ choices with what mere guess-work could have accomplished.‎ Getting all four samples right was a tough test, but not too tough, we thought, for people who believed they could recognize their brand. In the end, only 7 out of 19 regular cola drinkers correctly identified their brand of choice in all four trials. The diet-cola drinkers did a little worse-only 7 to 27 identified all four samples correctly.‎ While both groups did better than chance would predict, nearly half the participants in each group made the wrong choice two or more times. Two people got all four samples wrong. Overall, half the participants did about as well on the last round tasting as on the first, so tiredness or taste burnout was not a factor. Our preference test result suggests that only a few Pepsi participants and Coke fans may really be able to tell their favorite brand by taste and price.‎ ‎59. According to the passage the preference test was conducted in order to______.‎ A. compare the ability of the participants in choosing their drinks B. show which cola is the more liking of the drinkers C. show that a person’s opinion about taste is mere guess-work D. find out the role taste preference plays in a person’s drinking ‎60. It is implied in the first paragraph that ________.‎ A. the competition between the two colas is very strong ‎ B. the improvement of quality is the chief concern of the two cola companies ‎ C. the purpose of taste tests is to promote the sale of colas D. blind tasting is necessary for identifying fans ‎61. The word “burnout” (Line 3, Para.5) here refers to the state of _______‎ A. being seriously burnt in the skin B. being unable to function because of excessive(过度) use C. being badly damaged by fire D. being unable to burn for lack of fuel ‎62. The author’s purpose in writing this passage is to _______‎ A. emphasize that taste and price are closely related to each other B. argue that taste testing is an important marketing strategy C. show that taste preference is highly subjective D. recommend that blind tasting be introduced in the quality control of colas.‎ C Occasional self-medication has always been part of normal living. The making and selling of drugs have a long history and are closely linked, like medical practice itself, with the belief in magic. Only during the last hundred years or so has the development of scientific techniques made it possible for some of the causes of symptoms to be understood, so that more accurate diagnosis has become possible. The doctor is now able to follow up the correct diagnosis(诊断)of many illnesses with specific treatment of their causes. In many other illnesses, of which the causes remain unknown, it is still limited, like the unqualified prescriber (出具处方者), to the treatment of symptoms. The doctor is trained to decide when to treat symptoms only and when to attack the cause: this is the essential difference between medical prescribing and self-medication.‎ The advance of technology has brought about much progress in some fields of medicine, including the development of scientific drug therapy. In many countries public health organization is improving and people's nutritional standards have risen. Parallel with such beneficial trends have two harmful effects. One is the use of high-pressure advertising by the pharmaceutical（制药）industry, which has tended to influence both patients and doctors and has led to the overuse of drugs generally. The other is the emergence of the sedentary (需要久坐的) society with its faulty ways of life: lack of exercise, over-eating, unsuitable eating, not enough sleep, too much smoking and drinking. People with disorders arising from faulty habits such as these, as well as from unhappy human relationships, often resort to self-medication and so add the taking of pharmaceuticals to the list. Advertisers go to great lengths to catch this market.‎ Clever advertising, aimed at chronic (慢性的) sufferers who will try anything because doctors have not been able to cure them, can induce such faith in a preparation, particularly if steeply priced, that it will produce—by suggestion—a very real effect in some people. Advertisements are also aimed at people suffering from mild complaints such as simple colds and coughs, which clear up by themselves within a short time.‎ These are the main reasons why laxatives, indigestion remedies, painkillers, tonics, vitamin and iron tablets and many other preparations are found in quantity in many households. It is doubtful whether taking these things ever improves a person's health; it may even make it worse. Worse because the preparation may contain unsuitable ingredients; worse because the taker may ‎ become dependent on them; worse because they might be taken in excess; worse because they may cause poisoning, and worse of all because symptoms of some serious underlying cause may be masked and therefore medical help may not be sought.‎ ‎63. The first paragraph is intended to ________.‎ A. suggest that self-medication has a long history B. define what diagnosis means exactly C. praise doctors for their expertise D. tell the symptoms from the causes ‎64. Advertisements are aimed at people suffering from mild complaints because ________.‎ A. they often watch ads on TV B. they are more likely to buy the drugs advertised C. they generally lead a sedentary life D. they don't take to sports and easily catch colds ‎65. Paragraphs 2 and 3 explain ________.‎ A. those good things are not without side effects B. why clever advertising is so powerful C. why in modern times self-medication is still practised D. why people develop faulty ways of life ‎66. The best title for the passage would be ________.‎ A. Medical Practice B. Clever Advertising C. Self-Medication D. Self-Treatment D Given all the heated debates about how America's children should be taught, it may come as a surprise to learn that students spend less than 15% of their time in school. While there's no doubt that school is important, a series of recent studies remind us that parents are even more so. A study, for example, finds that parental involvement—checking homework, attending school meetings and events, discussing school activities at home—has a more powerful influence on students' academic performance than anything about the school the students attend. Another study, reports that the effort put forth by parents has a bigger impact on their children's educational achievement than the effort devoted by either teachers or the students themselves. And a third study concludes that schools would have to increase their spending by more than $1,000 per pupil in order to achieve the same results that are gained with parental involvement .‎ ‎ So parents matter a lot—a point made clear by decades of research showing that a major part of the academic advantage held by children from wealthy families comes from the “concerted cultivation（协作培养） of children” as compared to the more laissez-faire style of parenting common in working-class families. But this research also reveals something else: that parents, of all backgrounds, don't need to buy expensive educational toys or digital devices for their kids in order to give them an edge. They don't need to chauffeur their offspring to enrichment classes or test-prep courses. What they need to do with their children is much simpler: talk.‎ ‎ But not just any talk. Although well-known research by psychologists Betty Hart and Todd Risley has shown that professional parents talk more to their children than less-affluent parents—a lot more, resulting in a 30 million “word gap” by the time children reach age three—more recent researches are raising our sense of exactly what kinds of talks at home contributed to children's success at school. For example, a study conducted by researchers at the UCLA School of Public Health and published in the journal Pediatrics found that two-way adult-child conversations were six times as effective in promoting language development as interludes in which the adult did all the talking. Engaging in this reciprocal back-and-forth gives children a chance to try out language ‎ for themselves, and also gives them the sense that their thoughts and opinions matter. As they grow older, this feeling helps middle- and upper-class kids develop into confident supporters for their own interests, while working-class students tend to avoid asking for help or arguing their own case with teachers, according to a research presented at American Sociological Association conference earlier this year. ‎ ‎ The content of parents' conversations with kids matters, too. Children who hear talk about counting and numbers at home start school with much more extensive mathematical knowledge, which predicts future achievement in the subject. Psychologist Susan Levine, who led the study on number words, has also found that the amount of talk young children hear about the spatial properties of the physical world—how big or small or round or sharp objects are—predicts kids’ problem-solving abilities as they prepare to enter kindergarten.‎ While the conversations parents have with their children change as kids grow older, the effect of these exchanges on academic achievement remains strong. And again, the way mothers and fathers talk to their middle-school students makes a difference. Research by Nancy Hill, a professor at Harvard University's Graduate School of Education, finds that parents play an important role in what Hill calls “academic socialization”—setting expectations and making connections between current behavior and future goals (going to college, getting a good job). Engaging in these sorts of conversations, Hill reports, has a greater impact on educational accomplishment than volunteering at a child's school or going to PTA meetings, or even taking children to libraries and museums. When it comes to promoting students’ success, it seems, it’s not so much what parents do as what they say.‎ ‎67. The first paragraph mainly tells us that ______________.‎ ‎ A. Teaching methods are vital to students in the USA ‎ B. schooling is necessary for American students ‎ C. parents affect their children’s achievement greatly ‎ D. schools have paid more money to get the same results as parental involvement ‎68. From the second paragraph we can know that in the USA _______ .‎ ‎ A. children from rich families may have more academic advantages ‎ B. working-class parents tend to talk to their children more ‎ C. wealthy families tend to adopt laissez-faire style of parenting ‎ D. parents have many ways to give their children an advantage ‎ ‎69.

Children speaking as interludes.‎ ‎70K. What can we infer from the last paragraph ?‎ ‎ A. It’s necessary for children to follow the example of their parents.‎ ‎ B.

People of all ages openly admit ‎ their handwriting as keyboards replace pen and paper. Increasingly , schoolchildren deal with assignments on computer and struggle to write, having had little practice. I am of the generation that learnt to write with a dip pen in kindergarten and a fountain pen in high school; by the time I reached university, like everyone else. I used a functional ballpoint. ]=-Handwriting has filled every aspect of my life since I was first taught to shape letters on the lined pages of my exercise books.‎ From the age of 12,I kept a handwritten journal, recording my thoughts and feelings regarding both the significant and mundane aspects of my life. Through this daily practice I connected with myself, explored experiences and found a way to interpret and make sense of my relationships. Although I rarely reread my written material, the process of writing has remained with me as a means of processing my feelings and filtering（过滤） my experiences.‎ Yet today, handwritten letters are as rare as a red panda, Few of us write any longer, even to those to whom we are close, We communicate difficulty when we e-mail or text, both methods characterised by speed and informality. The deep thinking which accompanied a handwritten letter. is almost entirely absent. We may be communicating more frequently and with more people, but the depth and quality of our communication has reduced.‎ Sadly, modern technology tends to be temporary. Few of us keep old e-mails or even print them out, so a sense of history and memory is lost. Archivists（档案管理者）report that more information has been lost in the past decade than in the previous 150 years. It is too easy to press the delete button.‎ In many other areas of records, material is now in the digital format. Yet saving material in a digital formal only is extremely unstable. How it will survive the future remains a problem.‎ In this digital world of text, e-mails and instant messaging, the perceived value of writing is no longer obvious and the case for retaining the practice of writing needs to be made. Should we save the bumble pen and paper when laptops and mobiles are functional, universal and unstoppable? Should children continue to be taught to write with a pen and paper?‎ With its passing. a good mode of self-expression is being lost.

Seemingly, it means a choice of concrete things. But in fact, it means choosing a way of life. Life is to be lived and enjoyed, not to be wasted or complained about.‎ Hardly can we forget the time when our society faced the threat from the life-and death disease --- SARS. Yet, even during those dreadful times, some suffering people remained optimistic. Instead of wearing white masks, some people turned to colorful ones, and thus displayed a happy mood. And some creative people dubbed SARS to mean “SMILE AND REMAIN SMILING.” People who survive these kinds of circumstances decide in their minds to carry on in spite of the hardships.‎ Although we cannot choose our appearance, inborn gifts and even avoid unexpected disasters, we do have the right to choose to live optimistically, to love our lives, to have dreams, and to cherish hopes.‎ Every morning when we get up, we have a choice of how we want to approach life that day.‎ ‎【写作内容】‎ 1. 用约30个单词写出上文的概要；‎ 2. 用约120个词就“Our Life Rests on Our Choice” 谈谈你的看法和感受，内容包括：‎ ‎ （1）简要叙述你对“Our Life Rests on Our Choice”的理解；‎ ‎ （2）请举例说明你会选择怎样的人生态度；‎ ‎ （3）简要叙述你这样选择的理由。（至少2点）‎ ‎【写作要求】‎ 1. 阐述观点或提供论据时，不能直接饮用原文语句；‎ 2. 作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称。‎ ‎【评分标准】‎ 内容完整，语言规范，语篇连贯，词数适当。‎ 东台创新高级中学2017-2018学年度第一学期 高三年级英语12月份检测试卷参考答案 第一部分 听力(共20小题;每小题1分,共20分) ‎ ‎01－20.

Life, to some extent, rests on our choice. ‎ Life is full of ups and downs. When the time comes for us to make choices, we should be aware of the importance of a positive attitude. A positive attitude somehow resembles the sail of a ship, which offers us the right direction.‎ As a teenager, it is of great significance to take a positive attitude towards life. To stay energetic, I stick to an exercise schedule. In a bid to keep myself informed of the current events and communicate more with others, I read newspapers and surf on the Internet. Whenever I come across any difficulty with study or life, I analyze the problems and seek help from parents and teachers to solve problems.‎ All these mentioned above will be beneficial for me to grow into an optimistic and confident young man. Only by doing so can I fit in society ‎ more easily and stay motivated towards a better life. (160 words)‎
