Over 4
21、50 people came to the event. There were tours of the old school building and a picnic at Confederate Park. Several former teachers were on hands to tell stories about the old days. Ms. Mabel Yates, the English teacher for fifty years, was wheeled to the Park.Some eyes rolled and there were a few low
22、 groans(嘟囔声)when Ms. Yates was about to speak. Many started looking at their watches and coming up with excuses to be anywhere instead of preparing to listen to a lecture from an old woman who had few kind words for her students and made them work harder than all the other teachers combined.Then Ms.
23、 Yates started to speak:“I cant tell you how pleased I am to be here. I havent seen many of you since your graduation, but I have followed your careers and enjoyed your victories as well as crying for your tragedies. I have a large collection of newspaper photographs of my students. Although I haven
24、t appeared in person, I have attended your college graduations, weddings and even the birth your children, in my imagination.”Ms. Yates paused and started crying a bit. Then she continued:“It was my belief that if I pushed you as hard as I could, some of you would succeed to please me and others wou
25、ld succeed to annoy me. Regardless of our motives, I can see that you have all been successful in you chosen path.”“There is no greater comfort for an educator than to see the end result of his or her years of work. You have all been a great source of pleasure and pride for me and I want you to know
26、 I love you all from the bottom of my heart.”There was a silence over the crowd for a few seconds and then someone started clapping. The clapping turned into cheering, then into a deafening roar(呼喊). Lawyers, truck drivers, bankers and models were rubbing their eyes or crying openly with no shame al
27、l because of the words from a long forgotten English teacher from their hometown.41. What activity was organized for the school reunion?A. Telling stories about past events.B.

To introduce ways of protecting skaters. C.Now comes word from the University of California, Berkeley, a new stu
34、dy has confirmed that the richer you are the less compassionate you areIn a study just published in the journal Emotion, psychologist Jennifer Stellar sought to determine the empathic(感情移入的) capacities of a group of 300 college students, who had been hand-selected for maximum economic diversity. As
35、a rule, college students have just one income level: poor. Stellar thus chose her subjects based on the income of the people who respond to the requests and write the checks: the parents.In the first of three experiments, she had 148 of her subjects fill out reports how often they experience emotion
36、s such as joy, love, compassion and horror. She also had them agree or disagree with statements like “I often notice people who need help.” When the numbers on these lists were processed, Stellar found no meaningful personality differences among the students that could be attributable to income exce
37、pt one: across the board, the lower the subjects family income, the higher their score on compassion.The second study involved 64 subjects who watched two videos an emotionally neutral instructional video on construction techniques, and a far more charged one that involved real families coping with
38、a cancer-stricken child. Again, the subjects filled out emotional lists and again they scored similarly. But the lower-income volunteers continued to come out higher on the compassion-and-empathy scale.During this study, Stellar also used heartbeat monitors to determine their physical reactions to t
39、he two videos. There was, not surprisingly, no difference in heart rate when the instructional video was playing, but when the cancer stories began, the heartbeats of the lower-income volunteers slowed noticeably a counterintuitive(违反直觉的) sign of caring. An immediate threat to ourselves or another c
40、auses heart rate to jump, the better to snap into action to respond to the danger. An emotional crisis can have the opposite physical effect on observers helping them settle down to provide the quieter attention that simply listening and comforting requires.In the final part of the study, 106 of the
41、 participants were paired off and told to interview each other as if they were applying for a position as lab manager. So that the subjects would have real skin in the game, the ones who performed best in the interviews as judged by Stellar would win a cash prize. All of the subjects reported feelin
42、g the same levels of stress or anxiety when they were being interviewed, but only the lower-income subjects were reliably able to detect the same feelings in their partner when the roles were reversed.So does this mean the rich really cant feel the poor? A low score on the compassion scale doesnt me
43、an a lack of capacity for the feeling, Stellar argues. It may just mean a lack of experience observing and tending to the hardship others. Perhaps that helps explain why so many wealthy college kids find their way into the Peace Corps and other volunteer groups.50. According to the text, which of th
44、e following statement is true?A. All the subjects went through all the 3 experiments.B. Stellar carefully chose 300 college students according their personal income level.C. All the 3 experiments proved the same result.D. The rich really lacks the ability to feel pity for the poor.51. In Stellas opi
45、nion, the lower-income volunteers heart rate lowers when _.A. They are trapped in a building suddenly on fire.B. They are talking to someone they admire so much.C. When they are having their first lesson in a new school.D. They find someone is injured in an accident on the road.52. We can infer from
46、 the third experiment that _.A. Lab manager is a position with low income.B. The lower-income subjects win the cash prize.C. The interviewers are stressed and anxious when interviewing others.D. Both the interviewers and interviewees know the feelings in each other.53. The underlined “across the boa

Got money? Then you might lack sympathyC. Too much money? Come to experience hardshipsD. Hate money? Then try to
48、be low-income D. Poet Dean Young has dealt with impermanence(无常) a lot in his career, but its a particularly strong theme in Youngs latest collection, Fall Higher. The new collection was published in April, just days after the poet received a life-saving heart transplant(移植) after about a decade of
49、living with a weakening heart condition.Young, whose work is often frank and rich with twisted humor, tells NPRs Renee Montaigne that as he recovers from operation, hes also slowly returning to his everyday writing habits.“Im getting back to it,” Young says. “Not with the sort of concentration and s
50、ort of flame that I look forward to in the future, but I am blackening some pages.”And on those blackened pages youll find poems like “How Grasp Green,” which carries themes of springtime and rebirth. Its one of the first poems Young has written since his transplant.Its easy to spot clues (线索) to Yo
51、ungs awful health situation in the lines of his poetry. Fall Highers “Vintage” opens with, “Because I will die soon, I fall asleep, during the lecture on the ongoing emergency.” And the poem “The Rhythms Pronounce Themselves Then Vanish”published in The View Barker in February opens with the CT scan
52、 that revealed Youngs heart condition.Young says “Rhythms” was written about the beginning of his illness.“I had been having a lot of physical pain so that I could hardly walk a block. I got sent to a gastroenterologist and he did a series of tests, and then the tests came back to me and it was all
53、heart related,” he says, “And the outlook wasnt good.”Hearts tend to come up a lot in poetry, and thats especially true of Youngs work, which has clearly been influenced by the troubles of his own heart.“A lot of times, its not just a metaphor (比喻)” Young says. “For me, its an actual concern because
54、 Ive been living with this disease for over 10 years. My father died of heart problems when he was 49, so its been a sort of shadowy concern for me my whole life.”But Youngs poems also deal with more abstract matters of the heart. He wrote Fall Highers, “Late Valentine” for his wife. “Weve been marr
55、ied since late November and most of it has been spent in the hospital,” Young says of his marriage to poet Laurie Saurborn Young, who says Late Valentine is very sweet.Today, Young says, his friends cant help but comment on how pink his cheeks have becomethe result of a new heart and better circulat
56、ion (循环). But Young wrote the poems of Fall Higher before the transplant, at a time when, at its weakest point, his old heart was pumping at 8 percent of what it should have been.He was staring death in the facebut he was still able to look at his life and see art in it.Youngs work also touches on t
57、hemes of randomness and fate two factors that contributed to him getting a second chance in the form of a new heart from a 22-year-old student.“Everything in life is molecules (分子) bouncing against molecules,” Young says, and having a successful transplant is no different. “Somebody had to die; it h
58、ad to be a fit; my blood and his blood had to not have an argument; the heart had to be transported; I had to get it.”There were, in short, an amazing number of variables (变量) that led to Young being here today.“I just feel enormous gratitude,” he says of his donor (捐献者). “He gave me a heart so Im s
59、till alive. Im sure Im going to think about this person for the rest of my life.”55. The poetry collection “Fall Higher” _.A. was published in February B. refers darkness as its main themeC. is Youngs latest collection of poetry D. was written after Youngs heart transplant56. We can learn from the t
60、ext that Young _.A. was born with heart diseaseB. received a heart transplant in FebruaryC. married a female poet after he wrote Late ValentineD. wrote a poem for his wife in his collection57. What does the writer try to say in Paragraph 3?A. The writer expected some bright future, but he was disapp

64、Team MembersB. Functions of Rules and RegulationsC. Team Members and Their RolesD. How a Team WorksE. A Sports TeamF. The Definition of a TeamMaking Our Team Work BestLearning in school, we often work in small groups. But why? Is it necessary to work with others? What if you feel comfortable doing a
65、 job by yourself ? In reality, however, after leaving school, you will find out that almost all work in many fields is done in teams. 61. _Actually, a team is a group of individual people brought together in order to complete a task which cannot be efficiently finished by any member of the group alo
66、ne. The group may be temporary or it may stay together for a long period.62. _A type of team that we are familiar with are sports teams, which are made up of a certain numbers of players. They work together to win a match. In fact, different numbers have different skills in a team. A team can only w
67、ork well when all their members cooperate. The atmosphere in a team affects the performance of the team, so the social relations within the team are important. 63. _Teams require leaders, and people who create ideas, who develop ideas, and people whose role is to comment and help improve plans. Peop
68、le who identify problems and suggest solutions are needed in a team, too. Every team member works in their most efficient way to make the whole team work best. 64. _Regulations and rules help teams work wellBut be careful. Working in a team, we have to take into account how each individual member ca
69、n work best. Some may work best on task alone; others work best in groupsHow the group task is divided depends on the personalities and abilities of the individual in the group.65. _In a dynamic team, people with quite different personalities work well together. Actually, their differences are the s
70、trength of the team. To make the best of working with our classmates, or to make our team work best, it is important to recognize the strengths and weaknesses of each individual of the group. To know someones personality type and ability is to know a great deal about that individual person, or to un
71、derstand that person. To understand means that we can build strong relationship between members of a team, and make the best use of each others talents. 2012/2013学年第一学期嵊泗中学第一次月考高三年级英语答题卷 选择题部分(满分:80分)请将正确答案填涂在答题卡中:正确填涂:将标示答案的字母涂黑。1234567891011121314151617181920AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAABBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB
