    We often hear people talking about a generation gap (代沟). The name is new, but the idea is old. Young people and their parents don’t understand each other. The world has always kept changing. During the second century after Christ a wise man said, “Bury me on my face because in a little while everything will be turned upside down.”

    There has always been a gap between generations, but more people talk about it now. Old Mr. Ellis thinks he understands what has happened.

    “When I was a boy, I thought the world was a beautiful place. My life was very pleasant. But when I was older, I learned about people who were treated badly, people who didn’t have enough to eat. I wanted to help them, and I married a girl who wanted to help them, too. We went to meetings and talked a lot, but it didn’t seem to make much difference.”

    “Our children grew up in a world at war. They didn’t know when the fighting would stop. They wanted their children to have nice clothes and toys. They didn’t want to think about the future. They thought nothing could be done about it.”

    “Now I have grandchildren, and they have their own ideas. They are trying to make the world better. They are trying to help other people. They’re making people listen to them. I am proud of their generation.”

    1.The wise man mentioned in the text told people to bury him on his face so that when everything is turned upside down he will ________.

    A. lie on his stomach B. lie on his back

    C. stand quietly D. sit in peace

    2.Which generation did NOT want to do anything to make the world a better one?

    A. Mr. Ellis’ generation.

    B. His children’s generation.

    C. His grandchildren’s generation.

    D. None of the above.

    3.What is the writer’s attitude towards the generation gap?

    A. Unacceptable. B. Awful. C. Funny. D. Common.

    科目：高中英语 来源：2017届河北邯郸大名县一中高三上学期第一次月考英语试卷（解析版） 题型：七选五

    根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

    Did you know that if you need an alarm clock to wake up in the morning, you’re probably sleep-deprived （缺失）? __1._______ . On average, American teens get two hours less than the average 9.2 hours of sleep they need each night to function at their best.

    There are many reasons why teens don’t get enough sleep. ____2.______ . When your parents were young, they might have read a book or watched television before trying to go to sleep. But today’s teens are likely to be surfing the Internet, texting, emailing, or playing video games right before bed. ___3._____ . And using them right before bed can result in difficulty getting to sleep. According to a survey by the National Sleep Foundation, teens with four or more electronic equipment in their rooms are much more likely than their peers to get an insufficient amount of sleep at night, and are almost twice as likely to fall asleep in school and while doing homework.

    ___4.______ . In the National Sleep Foundation survey, three-quarters of the teens took at least one drink with caffeine every day, and nearly one-third consumed two or more every day. With all the trendy “high-energy” drinks and coffees out there right now, it’s easy to get a caffeine overload and that’s not good for sleep.

    So what can you do if you’re in lack of sleep? “The good news is that you only have to make up about a third of what you have lost, to function and feel better,” says Dr. Mahowald at a sleep disorders center. ____5.______ . But sleeping until noon on the weekend can cause problems — you’ll likely be wide-eyed until late those nights. Instead, try keeping a reasonable, regular sleeping and waking schedule.

    A. One of them is a relatively new development.

    B．Those extra two hours of sleep on Saturday and Sunday mornings can really help.

    C．Most teens don’t get enough sleep.

    D．Many teens also drink too much caffeine to sleep well.

    E．Electronic devices are more exciting than simply watching television.

    F．Researchers also have found that biology plays a role in teens’ sleep patterns.

    G．Many school districts are shifting their start times to later morning for school students.

    根据短文内容，从短文后的七个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。

    Living with a roommate can be a great experience as many roommates become lifelong friends. However, roommates living together under the same roof for a long time unavoidably conflict with each other. 1.________ To prevent this from happening to you, each conflict should be addressed in a productive, healthy way.

    1. Set a time for discussion.

    2. Make rules for discussion

    Before discussing the actual conflicts, set up some rules to guide the discussion. For example, each roommate is allowed to air one problem at a time and the other roommate has a chance to respond to it before another one is brought up. Making rules beforehand can prevent a screaming match from breaking out. 3.________

    3.4.________

    You can use your discussion to point out to your roommates their great traits and specific things you like about them. While this won’t solve the conflict, it can help your roommates be more understanding of your point of view and more willing to compromise.

    4. Come up with a written roommate agreement

    Once grievances（不满）have been aired by both parties you should develop a roommate agreement that is written down.

For example, roommates having a conflict about overnight guests may compromise to allow overnight guests only on weekends with guests on weekdays being gone by 11 p. m. 5.________

    A. Talk about your problems openly.

    B. Point out good things about roommates.

    Making a good job choice is almost as good as choosing a good life. So, choosing a job is one of the most important decisions to make in life.

    For my job, there are three important things that I will consider:

    The first one—that I must work in an area I like—is most important to me. Someone once said if you find a job that you enjoy, then you won't have to work another day. I would like to work in an area where I can be more creative. I would like to be the most valuable member there. All this is possible only if I like what I do.

    The second one is that the area of my work must lead me to solve some new and hard problems. I would like to stay in the same area for a long time. In order for this to happen, the work must provide enough problems. More than just working to live, I enjoy making a difference and trying my best for the whole progress. I would also like to be well remunerated for my hard work, so I can lead a comfortable life with this hard-won money. Then I can provide the best for my family.

    The third important thing is that I would like to work in an area that would help other people. The work in my mind is in fields such as the army, training or management. In such areas, I can help to develop the abilities of others and bring out their best. It would be a most satisfying job to help young people to become the best that they can be. When I become old, I would like to look back with a great sense of satisfaction that thousands of people have become better persons through my work.

    I accept the idea that no one should make a choice of a job suddenly or quickly. He should decide what he wants to be in the long run. Then, he should decide how he works towards it. He should study the proper courses, read the books and speak to knowledgeable persons in that field before making a job choice. A good choice will most probably lead to a better life.

    1.According to the passage, a good job choice probably makes people ________.

    A. solve fewer problems

    B. choose a good life

    C. be good family members

    2.The writer considers an enjoyable job most important because ________.

    A. he has to bring out his best

    B. it can make him more creative

    C. he will have to work another day

    3.The underlined word "remunerated" in the means"________.

    A. trained B. praised C. paid

    4.The writer wants to tell us that everyone should ________.

    A. become a knowledgeable person

    B. join the army to become a better person

    C. make preparations to find a satisfying job

    5.What is the best title for the passage?

    A. My Job Choice

    B. My favorite Job

    C. My Comfortable Life
