高考英语新题型专项训练(1)一、七选五(每题2分;共10分)Most smokers sincerely want to quit. They know cigarettes threaten their health, set a bad example for their children, and cost a large amount of money. 1 It’s something each person has to decide for himself/herself, and will require a personal commitment by the smoker.2 Many smokers use the cigarette as a kind of walking stick in moments of stress or discomfort, and on occasionit may work. But the heavy smoker, the person who tries to handle severe personal problems by smoking heavily all day long,is to discover that cigarettes do not help him/her deal withhis/her problems effectively.Because smoking is a form of addiction, 80 percent of smokers who quit usually experience some withdrawal symptoms.3 Psychological symptoms, such as anxiety, short-term depression, and inability to concentrate, may also appear. The main psychological symptom is increased irritability (易怒). People become so irritable, in fact, that they say they feel like killing somebody.Some people seem to lose all their energy and drive, wanting only to sleep. 4 They become so over energized that they can’t find enough activity to burn off their excess energy. For instance, one woman said she cleaned out all her closets completely and was ready to go next door to start on her neighbor’s. Both these extremes, however, eventually level off. The symptoms may be intense for two or three days, but within10 to 14 days after quitting, most disappear. The truth is that after people quit smoking, they have more energy, and generally they will need less sleep, and feel better about themselves.Quitting smoking can extend the ex-smoker’s life. 5 Most smokers state that immediately after they quit smoking, they start noticing dramatic differences in their overall health and life.A. But nobody can force a smoker to quit.B. Others react in exactly the opposite way.C. It is important to identify what you use smoking for.D. Also, it adds new happiness and meaning to one’s current life.E. These may include the headache, light-headedness, and chest pains.F. The choice of a substitute depends on what will achieve the same effects.G. However, there is no evidence that quitting smoking will lead to physical violence. 二、语法填空(每题1.5分;共15分)My first job ever was picking tomatoes during the schoolholidays when I was 12.

Their form depends on whatis eroding it, the slope of the land, the type of rock or soil and theamount of time the land has been eroded. There are threecommon types of valleys: V-shaped valleys, U-shaped valleys andflat floored valleys. 1A V-shaped valley, sometimes called a river valley, is anarrow valley with steeply sloped sides that appear similar to theletter “V”. They are formed by strong streams, which over timehave cut down into the rock. These valleys form with streams in..their “youthful” stage. 2 An example of a V-shaped valleyis the Grand Canyon in the Southwestern United States.A U-shaped valley is a valley with a profile similar to the letter “U”. 3 They are formed by glacial (冰川的) erosion during the last glaciation. This is because ice sheets flowed down the pre-existing river or V-shaped valleys and caused the bottomof the “V”to level out into a “U”shape, resulting in a wider, deeper valley.The third type of the valley is called a flat-floored valley. These valleys, like V-shaped valleys, are formed by streams. 4 Over time, the stream continues to erode the valley’s soil, widening it further. With flood, the material that is eroded and carried in the stream is deposited which builds up the floodplain and the valley. During this process, the shape of the valley changes from a V or U shaped valley into one with a broad flat valley floor.5 They are close to rivers which enable easier movement and also provide resources like water, good soils and food such as fish. The valleys themselves were also helpful as valley walls often blocked winds and other severe weather if the settlement patterns were positioned correctly. Valleys also provided a safe place for settlement and made invasions difficult.A. A valley is normally occupied by a river or stream.B. During this period, streams flow rapidly down steep slopes.C. The river begins to erode the bank of its channel insteadof valley walls.D. The shape of valleys varies but they are typically steep-sided canyons or broad plains.E. This type of valley is characterized by steep sides that curve in at the base of the valley wall.F. The difference is that they are no longer in their youthful stage, and are instead in a mature stage.G. Valleys have played an important role in people’s life since the beginning of human development.二、语法填空(每题1.5分;共15分)I used to say that I would help serve food at a homeless shelter.

Punishment is focused on reducing orgetting rid of unwanted behaviors. Punishment can be effective insome cases. 1 Prison is one example. After being sent to jailfor a crime, people often continue committing crimes once theyare away from prison.Why is it that punishment seems to work in some instances,but not in others? Researchers have found a number of factorsthat contribute to how effective punishment is. First, punishmentis more likely to lead to a reduction in behavior if it immediatelyfollows the behavior. 2 It may help explain why sendingpeople to jail does not always lead to a reduction in criminalbehaviors.Another factor is that punishment achieves greater resultswhen it is consistently applied. 3 For example, peopleoften continue to drive over the speed limit even after receiving aspeeding ticket. Why? Because the behavior is inconsistentlypunished.4 One of them is that any behavior changes thatresult from punishment are often temporary. Perhaps the greatestone is the fact that punishment makes people not perform certainactions, but it does not actually offer any information about moreappropriate or desired behaviors.Another thing to consider about punishment is that it canhave unintended and undesirable consequences. For example,approximately 75 percent of parents in the United States reporthitting their children. 5 For this reason, psychologistssuggest that any short-term gains from using punishment shouldbe weighed because it may produce potential long-termconsequences.A. Punishment also has some notable disadvantages.B. Parents and teachers consider punishment an effectivetool.C. Prison sentences often occur long after the crime hasbeen committed.D. There are two types of punishment, positive punishmentand negative punishment.E. In fact, it can be difficult to administer a punishment everysingle time a behavior occurs.F. However, you can probably think of situations wherepunishment does not reduce a behavior.G. Researchers have found that this type of physicalpunishment can lead to antisocial behaviors among children.二、语法填空(每题1.5分;共15分)Ohio, a state in the Midwestern United States, is full of allkinds of festivals.

In the survey, they rated their self-control by indicating how much they agreed with 14 statements, such as, “I do certain things that are bad for me, if they are fun”. The participants also reported their current emotional state as well as their overall life satisfaction.Holfmann’s team then turned to data from a study in which 205 adults were given smartphones and prompted to report their emotions at random moments throughout the week. 3 If so, they had to report how hard they tried to resist them, and whether they ultimately ended up acting on them.The researchers found that the more self-control people reported having, the more satisfied they reported being with their lives in the long run. 4 In fact, when they further analyzed the data, researchers found that such people’s increased happiness to a large extent accounted for the increased life satisfaction.These results indicate that as they go about their daily lives, people with a lot of self-control appear to generally be in higher spirits: in the long ran, they’re happier with their lives. To explain why this would be so, the researchers conducted another online survey. What they figured out is that instead of constantly denying themselves, people high in self-control are simply lesslikely to find themselves in situations where that’s even an issue.They don’t waste time fighting inner battles over whether or notto eat a second piece of cake. 5 And that, it would seem,makes them happier ... if still just a little bit sad.A. In a word, they are not bothered about such little desires.B. Wilhelm Hofmann and his team do research to checkthese general ideas.C. They find it hard to control their desire to play videogames before an exam.D. At the same time, they were also asked to report whetherthey were experiencing any desires.E. Researchers are still uncertain why some people are betterable to control their inner desires.F. It is generally believed that in the long run people with alot of self-control might benefit from the satisfaction of beingbetter able to realize long-term goals.G. And contrary to what the researchers were expecting,people with more self-control were also more likely to be happyin the short term.二、语法填空(每题1.5分;共15分)“Mother,”said Rachel, coming into the kitchen, with agarden hoe in her hand. “I’ve just planted the rose that Grandpagave to me.”“Well, that’s very nice, dear,” said Mother, 1 (clean) herwet hands on her apron (围裙).
