Is that you？” The woman speaking to me at the baseball game looked a little familiar.“Marci？” I asked.“It is you！”she cried out，smiling broadly.“It's good to see you again！”‎ It was good to see Marci，too.Off and on during the past few decades，I've wondered about her.I almost tried to search for her a few years ago after talking to a friend who had indicated that the 1990s had been pretty rough for Marci.So meeting her at the baseball game was really a surprise.‎ We spent a few minutes talking about our lives—the good old，bad old days.Then Marci grew quiet for a moment.“You know，Joe，” she said，“I've always wanted to tell you how...how...sorry I am for the way I treated you.You must have been hurt both physically and mentally.”I was a little embarrassed.I turned and looked at her.“It's OK，” I said，“No big deal！”“But I was such a jerk，” she continued.Yes you were，I thought.“We were both pretty young，” I smiled，“I know，” she said.“It's just always bothered me，remembering how mean I was to you.And I've wanted to tell you that I'm sorry.” The expression on her face was warm and sincere.And there was something in her eyes—it looked a lot like relief.“OK，” I said.“Apology accepted！” Overcome by the sweetness of the ‎ moment，I reached an arm around her and gave her a quick hug.Just then，the crowd erupted with a huge cheer，and Marci and I both returned our attention to the game.By the time I looked over to where she had been，she was gone.But the warm，wonderful feeling of our brief exchange was still there，and continues to this day whenever I think about it.‎ It isn't enough to just say “I'm sorry” and “You're forgiven”．But when those words are truly felt and sincerely expressed，they can open the door to miracles of the heart.Forgiveness can bring peace to an injured soul—even years after the fact.Even at a baseball game.‎ ‎【语篇解读】　本文是一篇记叙文。“我”在棒球赛场见到了多年未见的朋友Marci。她见到“我”后为以前那样对待“我”向“我”真诚地道歉，“我”立刻原谅了她。之后我们都感觉到温暖和愉快。‎ ‎1．What kind of life did Marci live during the late 20th century according to the passage?‎ A．Happy.　　 B．Busy.‎ C．Hard. D．Simple.‎ C　[细节理解题。根据第二段第三句“I almost tried to search for her a few years ago after talking to a friend who had indicated that the 1990s had been pretty rough for Marci”可知，在20世纪90年代Marci生活得很艰难，故C项正确。]‎ ‎2．What does the underlined word “jerk” in the third paragraph mean?‎ A．A humorous person.‎ B．A cruel person.‎ C．A careless person.‎ D．An honest person.‎ B　[词义猜测题。根据画线词下文中的“It's just always bothered me，remembering how mean I was to you”可知，当时她对“我”很刻薄，这件事一直困扰着她，再结合画线词所在句可知，她认为她是一个刻薄的人；据此可知，画线词与B项含义相近，故B项正确。]‎ ‎3．Why did Marci look in relief after talking with the author?‎ A．Because her favorite team won the game.‎ B．Because she learned Joe was living a good life.‎ C．Because she made an apology to the author.‎ D．Because she found she was not mean any longer.‎ C　[细节理解题。根据第三段中的“‘And I've wanted to tell you that I'm ‎ sorry.’ The expression on her face was warm and sincere.And there was something in her eyes—it looked a lot like relief”可知，由于Marci向我真诚地道了歉，所以她的眼里露出了轻松，故C项正确。]‎ ‎4．What might be the best title for the passage?‎ A．Excitement of a Baseball Game B．Mental Burden of a Woman C．Miracles of Forgiveness D．Relief of Finding a Friend C　[标题判断题。通读全文可知，文章最后两句为全文的主题句；结合全文内容可知，本文通过讲述“我”接受朋友Marci的真诚道歉，体会到原谅可以抚慰受伤的心灵的故事，说明了原谅创造的奇迹，故C项最适合作为本文标题。]‎ B ‎(2019·贵阳市普通高中第一学期监测)You try to keep your eyes wide open while watching a basketball match or a wonderful firework show in case you might miss something exciting in just the blink of an eye.But in fact，humans blink about 15 times per minute on average.Have you ever missed anything because you blinked? Probably not.Why is that?‎ According to a new study published in the journal Current Biology in September，our brain has the ability to skip the temporary darkness when we blink.It can keep visual information for a short period of time and then put it together to form an image without interruption.‎ In order to understand how this works，a group of scientists at the German Primate Center and the University Medical Center Gottingen in Germany conducted an experiment.In the study，the participants were asked to look at patterns on a screen whose direction could be interpreted in different ways，such as horizontally(水平地) or vertically(垂直地)．When one pattern was about to disappear and the next one was about to come，the participants had to indicate the direction that the next pattern would appear.‎ The researchers found that when the directions of two patterns didn't match，the area in our brain which is responsible for visual memory was activated.This same area showed less activity when two patterns were in the same direction.‎ ‎“The medial prefrontal cortex(额叶皮层) adjusts current visual information with previously obtained information，and thus enables us to perceive the world with more stability，even when we briefly close our eyes to blink，” Caspar Schwiedrzik ‎ explained in Science Daily.He is the first author of the study and also a scientist at the German Primate‎ ‎Center.‎ ‎【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。研究发现，眨眼并不会错过细节并解释了其原因。‎ ‎5．We don't miss anything when blinking because our brain can ________.‎ A．deal with the missing image B．remember all that we see C．imagine what our eyes miss D．put our pieces of memory together A　[推理判断题。根据第二段第一句“According to a new study published in the journal Current Biology in September，our brain has the ability to skip the temporary darkness when we blink.”可知，根据九月份发表在《当代生物学》杂志上的一项新研究，我们的大脑有能力跳过我们眨眼时形成的暂时黑暗。据此可推知，由于我们的大脑能处理丢失的图像，所以眨眼不会让我们错过任何东西，故A项正确。]‎ ‎6．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?‎ A．Our brain.‎ B．Visual information.‎ C．Current Biology.‎ D．The temporary darkness.‎ B　[代词指代题。根据第二段第二句“It can keep visual information for a short period of time and then put it together to form an image without interruption”可知，大脑可以在短时间内保存视觉信息，然后将其组合在一起形成不中断的图像。故可推知，it指代上文中的“visual information”，故B项正确。]‎ ‎7．What do we know about the experiment?‎ A．The two patterns appear at the same time.‎ B．Visual memory can be more activated by similarity.‎ C．Participants can interpret patterns differently.‎ D．The different directions activated visual memory.‎ D　[细节理解题。根据第四段中的“when the directions of two patterns didn't match，the area in our brain which is responsible for visual memory was activated. This same area showed less activity when two patterns were in the same direction”可知，当两个模式的方向不一致时，则掌握视觉记忆的大脑区域被激活；当两种模式在同一方向时，则这个区域显示出较少的活动。据此可知，不同的方向能激活视觉记忆，故D项正确。]‎ ‎8．What would be the best title for this passage?‎ A．The Brain's Structure B．The Brain's Activated Patterns C．The Brain's Special Skill D．The Brain's Orientation C　[标题归纳题。通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了一个科学研究。研究表明，眨眼不会错过细节并解释了其原因，即大脑有能力在短时间内保存视觉信息，然后将其组合在一起形成不中断的图像信息。故C项最适合作本文的标题。]‎ Ⅱ.完形填空 ‎(2019·合肥市第一次教学质量检测)Greenberg was a lucky guy to enter Columbia University on a full

that counts” when it comes to gifts.That was until a couple of weeks ago，when my kids gave me a present that blew_me_away.‎ For years now，I've been wanting to sell our home，the place where my husband and I raised our kids.But to me，this house is much more than just a building.‎ In the front room，there's a wall that has hundreds of pencil lines，marking the progress of my children's growth.‎ Every growth stage is marked in grey，with each child's name and the date when they were measured.Of all the objects and all the memories，it's this one thing in a home that's the hardest to leave behind.Friends I know have returned home after work only to discover their wall of heights has been freshly painted over.A new paint job wouldn't normally be greeted by tears，but erasing that evidence of motherhood hurts more than it should.Our kids grow in so many ways，but the wall is physical evidence of their progress，right there for everyone to see.‎ Over the years，I've talked about how much I would hate leaving that wall behind when I moved，even though the last marks were made 10 years ago when my kids stopped growing.‎ So one day，while I was at work，my children decided to do something about ‎ it.‎ They hired Jacquie Manning，a professional photographer whose work is about capturing(捕捉) the beautiful things in life，from clear lakes and skies to diamonds and ballgowns(晚礼服)．‎ She came to our house while I was at work，and over several hours，took photos of the hundreds of drawings and lines，little grey fingerprints(指纹)，and old marks.Somehow，she managed to photograph all those years of memories perfectly. Afterwards，she put all the photos together into one image，transforming them into a beautiful history of my family.‎ Three weeks later，my children's wonderful gift made its way to me－a lifesize photo of the pencil lines and fingerprints that represents entire lifetimes of love and growth.‎ ‎【语篇解读】　本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了孩子们送给“我”一件充满爱意且特别的礼物的事情。‎ ‎1．The underlined phrase “blew me away” in Paragraph 1 probably means “________”．‎ A．attracted me　 B．surprised me C．accepted me D．refused me B　[词义猜测题。根据第一段中的“I've never been the kind of person to say，‘It's the thought that counts’ ...when my kids gave me a present”及下文的描述可知，“我”以前不相信送礼物的人的心思最重要，但几个星期前“我”的孩子们送给“我”的礼物让“我”改变了这样的想法，所以此处表示使“我”吃惊。]‎ ‎2．What does the house really mean to the author?‎ A．A house. B．A building.‎ C．Objects. D．Memories.‎ D　[推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Of all the objects and all the memories，it's this one thing in a home that's the hardest to leave behind.”可知，对作者来说这栋房子意味着回忆。]‎ ‎3．What surprised the friends the author know after work?‎ A．Finding the wall repainted.‎ B．Erasing the fingerprints.‎ C．Greeting them by tears.‎ D．Leaving the wall unfinished.‎ A　[细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Friends I know have returned home after work ‎ only to discover their wall of heights has been freshly painted over.”可知，令朋友们吃惊的是房屋的墙面又被重新粉刷了。]‎ ‎4．What is the best title for the text?‎ A．Gift Made with Love B．Buildings Made by Children C．A Very Wonderful Painting D．A Family History A　[标题归纳题。根据全文内容，尤其是最后一段可知，这篇文章主要讲述了孩子们送给“我”的一份用爱制成的礼物，故A项作本文标题最佳。]‎ B ‎(2019·四川重点中学第二次评估)Watching what you eat can be easier said than done，but a recent study shows it might not just be about what's on your plate—it could be about how quickly it disappears.‎ Japanese researchers followed 1,083 adults for five years，splitting them into three categories based on how quickly they ate: slow，normal，and fast.They also answered a questionnaire at the beginning of the study，sharing their diet，physical activity，and medical history.In the beginning，none of the volunteers had metabolic syndrome(新陈代谢综合征)－meaning at least three risk factors—which can lead to health problems like heart conditions and diabetes.‎ When the participants reported back five years later,84 had been diagnosed(诊断) with metabolic syndrome－and their eating speed was a major predictor，according to the results in the journal Circulation.The fast eaters were 89 percent more likely to have metabolic syndrome than slow and normal eaters.Just 2.3 percent of slow eaters received the diagnosis，compared to 11.6 percent of fast eaters.But that's not all.Fast eaters also saw more weight gain，larger waistlines，and higher blood sugar levels than slow eaters.‎ The researchers say gobbling makes it easier not to take notice of fullness before your body has a chance to signal you to stop.“So when people eat fast they are more likely to overeat，” said Takayuki Yamaji，MD，study author and cardiologist at Hiroshima University in Japan in a statement.‎ Previous research backs up the weight benefits of slow eating，too.One study of New Zealand women found fast eaters have higher body－mass indexes(指数)，and a Chinese study found that both healthy and fat men ate less when told to chew 40 times instead of 15 times before swallowing.Initial research even suggests chewing ‎ your food longer could burn more calories－up to about 1,000 extra every month.‎ ‎【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。不只吃什么影响健康，吃的速度也影响健康。‎ ‎5．What are the participants divided by?‎ A．Medical history.‎ B．Health condition.‎ C．Physical activity.‎ D．Eating speed.‎ D　[细节理解题。根据第二段中的“splitting them into three categories based on how quickly they ate：slow，normal，and fast”可知，按照参与者吃饭的速度，研究者将他们分为吃得慢、正常、快三个类别。]‎ ‎6．Which may be the result of the study?‎ A．Fast eaters are 4 times more likely to have metabolic syndrome.‎ B．Normal and slow eaters don't have metabolic illness.‎ C．89% of fast eaters have higher blood pressure.‎ D．Slow eaters are healthier than fast eaters.‎ D　[推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Fast eaters also saw more weight gain，larger waistlines，and higher blood sugar levels than slow eaters.”可知，比起吃得慢的人，吃得快的人体重增加更多、腰围更大、血糖水平也更高，反向推知，吃得慢的人比吃得快的人健康。]‎ ‎7．What does the underlined word “gobbling” in Paragraph 4 best mean?‎ A．Tasting slowly.‎ B．Digesting quickly.‎ C．Eating greedily.‎ D．Cooking carefully.‎ C　[词义猜测题。根据第四段中的“when people eat fast they are more likely to overeat”可知，吃得快可能会让人吃得过多。所以这个词的意思应是“狼吞虎咽地吃”，故选C项。]‎ ‎8．What does the last paragraph tell us?‎ A．The importance of eating speed.‎ B．The advantage of eating slowly.‎ C．The result of a Chinese study.‎ D．Fast eating and overeating.‎ B　[段落大意题。根据文章最后一段的中心句“Previous research backs up the weight benefits of slow eating，too.”及下文内容可知，本段主要讲慢点吃的好处。]‎ Ⅱ.完形填空 ‎(2019·长沙名校第二阶段测评)We made a quick stop at the grocery store to pick up cupcakes for my daughter Norah's fourth birthday.As an older gentleman walked by，Norah __1__ and waved，“Hi old person！It's my birthday today！” I apologized to him embarrassedly for her __2__.‎ ‎“Hello little lady!
