    With the development of society，it is common that many people are rushing all the way and all day，tired and subhealthy． 1. She described all the things she had to do—one was to make her bed—from the moment she woke up until she flew out of the door for work．I suggested she experiment by not making her bed for two weeks．She was shocked，probably thinking I’d been brought up by wolves in a forest．2.

    Two weeks later she went into my office merrily．She had left her bed unmade for the first time in 42 years—and nothing bad had happened．“And you know what?”she said．“I don’t dry my dishes anymore，either．”

    3. One was discovering that she had choices in her life that she had never seen before．The other was giving herself permission to be less than perfect．This story shows an important principle about managing time：No one can do it a11．Each of us has to make choices and accept trade-offs(利弊权衡)．The problem is that many people choose in ways that put themselves and their health last. They take better care of their houses and cars than they do of themselves． 4.

    So what is the solution? There’s an easy way．Decide what you want in your life，and put that first．On a daily basis，that should include regular meals，enough sleep and time with your family．Exercise，leisure，friendships and hobbies should also be regular aspects of life．5.The choice is yours：whatever makes you feel good about yourself and your life．Take a nap．Take a walk．Take time to play the piano．Stop bringing your briefcase home from the office．Stop keeping your house as clean as your mother kept hers．Fill more of your time with want-to-dos instead of have-to-dos．

    A．Most people do not take time to relax themselves．

    B．The point is to do something for yourself every day．

    科目：高中英语 来源：广东省珠海市2017届高三5月质量监测（二模）英语试卷 题型：阅读理解

    A decade-long study, also the first major research into air pollution and disease has shown that living near a main road increases the risk of dementia(痴呆). The study of 6.6 million people found that one in 10 dementia deaths in people living within 50 metres of a busy road was due to waste gas and noise. 

    Air pollution is already known to contribute to the deaths of around 40,000 people in Britain each year by worsening breathing and heart conditions, while previous research showed emissions (排放物) can cause brain shrinkage. But the new study by Canadian public health scientists is the first to find a link between living close to heavy traffic and the increasing of dementia, a discovery described as "believable" and "impressive" by British experts. 

    Dr Hong Chen said. "Our study suggests that busy roads could be a source of environmental stressors that could give rise to the onset of dementia. Population growth and urbanization has placed many people close to heavy traffic, and with widespread exposure to heavy traffic and growing rates of dementia, even a modest effect from near-road exposure could cause a large public health burden.  More research to understanding this link is needed, particularly into the effects of different aspects of traffic, such as air pollutants and noise."

    In the new study, the team tracked all adults aged between 20 and 85 living in Ontario for more than a decade from 2001 to 2012. They used postcodes to determine how close people lived to a main road and analyzed medical records to see if they went on to develop dementia, Parkinson's disease or multiple sclerosis(多发性硬化). 

    While there was no correlation between living near a road and Parkinson's disease or multiple sclerosis, dementia risk reduced as people lived further from a main road, with a 7 percent higher risk in developing dementia among those living within 50 metres; a 4 percent higher risk at 50-100 metres and a 2 percent higher risk at 101-200 metres. After 200 metres there was no increase. Researchers believe that noise of traffic may also play a role in the raised risk as well as other urban pollution, which is often present near busy roads.

    1.What can we know about Canadian's new study?

    A. British experts think highly of it.

    B. It brings benefits to dementia patients.

    C. It shows that air production is very serious.

    D. It shows that air pollution can cause brain shrinkage.

    2.What Dr Hong Chen said showed that______.

    A. people are diagnosed with dementia mainly due to air pollution

    B. widespread exposure to traffic will reduce the risk of having dementia

    C. the link between living near roads and having dementia was not obvious

    D. busy roads could be a source of environmental stressors that caused dementia to increase

    3.What does the underlined the word ‘correlation’ mean?

    A. Change. B. Improvement.

    C. Association. D. Secret

    4.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

    A. Living near a main road adds to the risk of noise.

    B. Living beyond 300 metres of a main road is safe for people.

    C. Living within 200 metres of a main road has a lower risk of having dementia.

    D. The further people live away from heavy traffic, the smaller the risk of having dementia.

    I had dressed quite nicely for my first day as a student at St. Anne's College of Further Education. In celebration of this new beginning, I had changed my unusual clothes to formal clothing.

    Like many young people my age, I was under the impression that the best way to show your personality was by wearing the kind of clothing that my mother considered was not fit to be seen in public. But for my first day as a student I had made an effort to look what my mother called ‘respectable’.

    There were fifteen of us, sitting in the theatre hall, while the head of the drama department, Mr. Wilson, gave us a warm welcoming speech. To my horror (恐惧), he then invited us to say why we had decided to do a drama course. I had no idea what I would say. The truth was that although I had a taste for unusual clothing, I was painfully shy.

    My worry grew as it came closer to my turn. One by one, the new students excitedly explained their reasons. Then it was the turn of a girl who I hadn't really noticed until that moment because I was too busy thinking about what I would say. ‘My name’s Tracy and I'm from Blackburn’, she said, and then added no further information.

    Everyone smiled politely in silence but I was impressed at her bravery in saying almost nothing even under pressure (压力). I relaxed, knowing that you could get away with saying so little about yourself. It gave me confidence.

    After Mr. Wilson at long last let us out of the hall to go to lunch, I managed to find the courage to go up to Tracy. She looked very unfriendly. Taking a deep breath, I introduced myself. To my surprise, she looked up at me and gave me a very bright, sweet smile. That was twenty-seven years ago, and although we never did become famous stars, we're still best friends.

    1.Why did the author dress nicely for her first day at college?

    A. She felt a need to dress properly.

    B. She wanted to fit in with the other students.

    C. She was under pressure from her mother.

    D. She wanted to look like a great star.

    2.Why did the author feel nervous?

    A. Because she had never spoken in public

    B. Because it was her turn to start first

    C. Because she didn't know what to talk about

    D. Because the other students were so excited

    3.What does the underlined word "It" in Paragraph 5 refer to?

    A. Tracy also seemed extremely worried.

    B. Tracy hadn't said very much.

    C. The other students reacted politely to Tracy.

    D. All attention was on Tracy.

    In June 2016, Huffington Post and Mail Online reported that three-year-old Victoria Wilcher, who had suffered facial scarring, had been kicked out of a KFC because she was frightening customers. Later, KFC announced that no evidence had been found to support the story. This phenomenon is largely a product of the increasing pressure in newsrooms that care more about traffic figures.

    Brooke Binkowski, an editor, says that, during her career, she has seen a shift towards less editorial oversight in newsrooms. “Clickbait is king, so newsrooms will uncritically print something unreal. Not all newsrooms are like this, but a lot of them are.”

    Asked what the driving factor was, a journalist said, “You’ve an editor breathing down your neck and you have to meet your targets. And there are some young journalists on the market who are inexperienced and who will not do those checks. So much news that is reported online happens online. There is no need to get out and knock on someone’s door. You just sit at your desk and do it.”

    Another journalist says, “There is definitely pressure to churn out (粗制滥造) stories in order to get clicks, because they equal money. At my former employer in particular, the pressure was on due to the limited resources. That made the environment quite horrible to work in.”

    In a February 2017 report for Digital Journalism, Craig Silverman wrote, “Today the bar for what is worth giving attention to seems to be much lower. Within minutes or hours, a badly sourced report can be changed into a story that is repeated by dozens of news websites, resulting in tens of thousands of shares. Once a certain critical mass is reached, repetition has a powerful effect on belief. The rumor(传闻) becomes true for readers simply by virtue of its ubiquity.”

    And, despite the direction that some newsrooms seem to be heading in, a critical eye is becoming more, not less important, according to the New York Times’ public editor, Margaret Sullivan. “Reporters and editors have to be more careful than ever before. It’s extremely important to question and to use every verification(验证) method available before publication.” Yet those working in newsrooms talk of doubtful stories being tolerated because, in the words of some senior editors, “a click is a click, regardless of the advantage of a story”. And, “if the story does turn out to be false, it’s simply a chance for another bite at the cherry.”

    Verification and fact-checking are regularly falling victim to the pressure to bring in the numbers, and if the only result of being caught out is another chance to bring in the clicks, that looks unlikely to change.

    1.According to Brooke Binkowski, newsrooms produce false news because _____.

    A. clicks matter a lot B. resources are limited

    C. budgets are inadequate D. journalists lack experience

    2.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 probably mean?

    A. Lies can’t sell without an atom of truth.

    B. Rumors are like a flame blown by the wind.

    C. You can hear rumors, but you can’t know them.

    D. A lie, repeated often enough, will end up as truth.

    3.What’s Margaret Sullivan’s attitude towards false news online?

    A. Negative. B. Supportive.

    C. Skeptical. D. Neutral.

    4.What is the passage mainly about?

    A. Consequences of false stories. B. Causes of online false news.

    C. Incompetence of journalists. D. A craze to get clicks.

    Countries may be ranked by many various groups, such as how expensive or interesting they are to foreign tourists. They can also be ranked by their openness and friendliness toward visitors. You might be shocked to find out that, for example, the USA is number 102 on the list of the least welcoming places, 140 being the most unfriendly land.

    Mongolia

    Mongolia was closed for quite some time and opened up to foreigners only 20 years ago. That’s probably the major reason why it is not yet experienced enough in hosting tourists. The country is beautiful, with huge spacious areas of land that are low populated. There local people are not yet used to being visited by foreign guests.

    Slovakia

    There are, undoubtedly, pluses as well as minuses in every country. Slovakia is not the perfect destination for a couple of reasons. First and foremost, Slovakia is becoming more and more similar to the rest of European countries surrounding it. Sameness is not the best quality. As a rule, tourists want to travel and see things they have never seen before. It is good that the land’s countryside is still unique, although it is also being commercialized day by day.

    Iran

    Iran is not the best place to travel to. It is located close to Pakistan with its negative political atmosphere. Western visitors are not welcome over there and embassies (大使馆) advise against traveling to Iran. The population, contrary to the country’s government, consists of very friendly and welcoming people.

    Kuwait

    In Kuwait people are warm and friendly. It has a unique history, plenty of traditions and customs. People respect their culture and are very religious. It is a Muslim country, which means that you are not allowed to drink alcohol. If you happen to visit Kuwait during Ramadan, you will not be allowed to eat in public places, either.

    Russia

    Russia is truly a special place. It is definitely worth visiting. What you might not find attractive is the corruption and bureaucracy (官僚主义) that rule in some certain official circles. Another nuisance you should be ready for is that, as a visitor, you’ll be asked to receive an invitation. Only then will you be able to apply for a visa. Once you arrive in Russia, you’ll be warmly greeted and accepted by the local people.

    1.You’ll meet friendly people in the following countries except in _____.

    A. Iran

    B. Kuwait

    C. Mongolia

    D. Russia

    2.Which of the statements is true according to the text?

    A. You can apply for a visa for Russia at will.

    B. If you’re fond of drinking, then Kuwait is not an ideal destination.

    C. You’re not advised to travel in Iran due to its high cost.

    D. Mongolia is a beautiful country with much experience in hosting tourists.

    3.Where does this passage probably come from?

    A. A news report

    B. A lecture speech

    C. An advertisement

    D. A text book
