One year, I had a student, John, who entered my class when he was a junior(三年级学生). John changed to our school from Greece, and seemed to be interested in athletics, so I encouraged him to join our track team. I explained to him that even though he had never taken part in it before, I did believe that he could do well in any event, and I would be willing to coach him at whichever ones interested him. He accepted the offer, and began to work hard at every practice.‎ ‎ About a month later, I had found out from other sources that John was a first-class tennis player, winning various junior awards in his home country. I went to him asking, “John, I really appreciate that you came out for the track team, but why didn't you play tennis instead? It seems that it would interest you a lot more, since you're so good at it.”‎ ‎ John answered, “Well, I like tennis, but you told me that you believed in me, and that you thought I could do well in track, so I wanted to try it for that reason.”‎ ‎ From then on, I often remember my student's reply. I told the story to a friend of mine and she suggested I write it down to share somewhere with more teachers. No matter how critical(不满的) students can be of themselves, I've found that a simple “I trust that you can do it!” can go a long way!‎ ‎21.

Experts say the way you design your home could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off. you can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn your home into part of your diet plan.‎ Open the curtains and turn up the lights. Dark environments are more likely to encourage overeating, for people are often less self-conscious(难为情) when they’re in poorly lit places – and so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesn’t have enough window light, get more lamps and fill the place with brightness.‎ Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites. In one study, people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellow or red room. Warm colors like yellow make food appear more appetizing, while cold colors make us less hungry. So ‎ when it’s time to repaint, go blue.‎ Don’t forget the clock – or the radio. People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories(卡路里) per meal than those who rush through their meals. Begin keeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at 30 minutes. And while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turning on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.‎ Downsize the dishes. Big serving bowls and plants can easily makes us fat. We eat about 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When we choose a large spoon over a smaller one, total intake(摄入) jumps by 14 percent. And we’ll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinny glass.‎ ‎28. The text is especially helpful for those who care about ____.‎ A. their home comforts B. their body shape C. house buying D. healthy diets ‎29. A home environment in blue can help people ____.‎ A. digest food better B. reduce food intake ‎ C. burn more calories D. regain their appetites ‎30. What are people advised to do at mealtimes?‎ A. Eat quickly. B. Play fast music C. Use smaller spoons D. Turn down the lights ‎31. What can be a suitable title for the text?‎ A. Is Your House Making You Fat? B. Ways of Serving Dinner C. Effects of Self-Consciousness D. Is Your Home Environment Relaxing?‎ D Students and Technology in the Classroom I love my iphone—it's my little connection to the larger world that can go anywhere with me. I also love my laptop computer, as it holds all of my writing and thoughts. Despite this love of technology, I know that there are times when I need to move away from the devices(设备) and truly communicate with others.‎ On occasions, I teach a course called History Matters for a group of higher education managers. My goals for the class include a full discussion of historical themes and ideas. Because I want students to carefully study the material and exchange their ideas with each other in the ‎ classroom, I have a rule—no laptops, iPads, etc. When students were told my rule in advance of the class, some of them were not happy.‎ ‎ Most students suspect that my reasons for this rule include unpleasant experiences in the past with students misusing technology. There's a bit of truth to that. Some students guess that I am anti-technology. There's no truth in that at all. I love technology and try to keep up with it so I can communicate to my students.‎ ‎ The real reason why I ask students to leave technology at the door is that I think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversations and truly engage complex ideas. Interruptions by technology often break concentration and allow for too much dependence on outside information for ideas. I want students to dig deep within themselves for inspiration and ideas. I want them to push each other to think differently and to make connections between the course material and the class discussion.‎ ‎ I've been teaching my history class in this way for many years and the assessments reflect students' satisfaction with the environment that I create. Students realize that with deep conversation and challenge, they learn at a level that helps them keep the course material beyond the classroom.‎ ‎ I'm not saying that I won't ever change my mind about technology use in my history class, but until I hear a really good reason for the change, I'm sticking to my plan. A few hours of technology-free dialogue is just too sweet to give up.‎ ‎32. Some of the students in the history class were unhappy with  .‎ ‎ A. the course material B. others' misuse of technology ‎ C. discussion topics D. the author's class rules ‎33. The underlined word “engage” in Para.4 probably means  .‎ ‎ A. explore B. accept C. change D. reject ‎34. According to the author, the use of technolo舒中高二期中英语 第6页 (共10页)‎ 舒中高二期中英语 第5页 (共10页)‎ gy in the classroom may  .‎ ‎ A. keep students from doing independent thinking ‎ B. encourage students to have in-depth conversations ‎ C. help students to better understand complex themes ‎ D. affect students' concentration on course assessment ‎35. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that the author  .‎ ‎ A. is quite stubborn ‎ B. will give up teaching history ‎ C. will change his teaching plan soon ‎ D. values technology-free dialogues in his class 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）‎ ‎ 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ ‎ Both men and women are living longer these days in industrialized countries. ‎36 In general, they can expect to live six or seven years more than men. One reason for this is biological.‎ One important biological factor that helps women live longer is the difference in hormones between men and women. 37 Between the ages of about 12 and 50, women produce hormones that are involved in fertility(生育能力). These hormones also have a positive effect on the heart and blood flow. In fact, women are less likely to have high blood pressure or to die from heart attacks.‎ ‎38 They help the body defend itself against some kinds of infections. This means that women generally ger sick less often and less seriously than men. The common cold is a good example: women, on average, get fewer colds than men. 39 Scientists are still not exactly sure how they influence aging, but they believe that they do. Some think that a woman’s body cells have a tendency(趋向) to age more slowly than a man’s. Others think that a man’s body cells have a tendency to age more quickly. 40 ‎ A．However, women, on average, live longer.‎ B .The biological factor plays an important part.‎ C. Women are also helped by their female genes.‎ D. The female hormones also protect the body in another way.‎ E. Recent research seems to support both of these possibilities.‎ F. Therefore, women are more healthy than men and can live a better life.‎ G. Hormones are chemicals which are produced by the body to control uarious body functions.‎ 第三部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分45分）‎ 第一节：完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ ‎ 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A,B,C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。‎ ‎ The first day at school has left a deep 41   on me.
