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。
Usually summer break provides teens with an opportunity to get away from the boring life of going to school, to visit friends and have fun with them, and to make a little extra money. The summer job market for teens can be highly competitive. Half-heartedly (不认真地)looking for a job is the quickest way to get turned down over and over. 1.
2. Look at the skills required for each. Then compare these skills with those you already have. The closer the match, the more likely you will enjoy your summer job while building a good reference for future jobs.
Understanding why you want to work will also help you determine where to apply. Do you want to earn extra money for something special, or do you need the job to make ends meet? 3. These are just a few of the questions you need to answer before starting your job search.
When you’re searching for a summer job, look for help beyond the wanted signs. 4. And even if a business doesn’t have a sign or advertisement indicating that they are looking for help, stop by and ask a manager. You might fill in an application anyway, which could lead to a position in the future.
5. Ice cream shops, restaurants, grocery stores and movie theaters commonly hire students. You might take a job that has less desirable hours or that you don’t necessarily enjoy. However, summer jobs don’t last forever. You can still build your skills and experience while making money.
A. Here are some tips on finding summer jobs.
B. Take time to think about the types of jobs that are suitable for you.
C. Be flexible and creative when you’re looking for a summer job.
D. If you are poor in math, you probably would lose your job.
E. Let your family, neighbors and teachers know that you’re looking for a job.
F. A good attitude towards work sometimes can make up for lack of skills.
G. Are you looking for a job where your friends work, so you can be with them?

Have you ever run into a careless cell phone user on the street?Perhaps they were busy talking,texting or checking updates on WeChat without looking at what was going on around them. As the number of this new“species”of human has kept rising. They have been given a new name-phubbers (低头族).
Recently,a cartoon created by students from China Central Academy of Fine Arts put this group of people under the spotlight. In the short film,phubbers with various social identities bury themselves in their phones. A doctor plays with his cell phone while letting his patient die,a pretty woman takes selfie in front of a car accident site,and a father loses his child without knowing about it while using his mobile phone. A chain of similar events eventually leads to the destruction of the world.
Although the ending sounds overstated the damage phubbing can bring is real.
Your health is the first to bear the effect and result of it.“Constantly bending your head to check your cell phone could damage your neck,”Guangming Daily quoted doctors as saying,“the neck is like a rope that breaks after long?term stretching.”Also,staring at cell phones for long periods of time will damage your eyesight gradually,according to the report.
But that’s not all. Being a phubber could also damage your social skills and drive you away from your friends and family. At reunions with family or friends,many people tend to stick to their cell phones while others are chatting happily with each other and this creates a strange atmosphere,Beijing Evening News reported.
It can also cost you your life. There have been lots of reports on phubbers who fell to their death,suffered accidents,and were robbed of their cell phones in broad daylight.
1.For what purpose does the author give the example of a cartoon in Para.2?
A. To advertise the cartoon made by students.
B. To inform people of the bad effects of phubbing.
C.To indicate the world will finally be destroyed by phubbers.
D.To warn doctors against using cell phones while treating patients.
2.Which of the following is NOT a risk a phubber may have?
A.His social skills could be affected.
B.His neck and eyesight will be gradually harmed.
C.He might get separated from his friends and family.
D.He will cause the destruction of the world.
3.Which of the following may be the author’s attitude towards phubbing?
A.Supportive. B. Optimistic.
C.Opposed. D. Objective.
4.What may the passage talk about next?
A.Measures to reduce the risks of phubbing.
B.People addicted to phubbing.
C.Definition of phubbers.
D.Consequences of phubbing.

If you live in a big city, there are many things to drive you crazy on your daily route, and it’s not just overcrowded subway trains.
Vicky Zhao is a mainlander working in Hong Kong. For her, one thing she can’t put up with is people standing on the wrong side of the escalator(自动扶梯) in subway stations. “Escalators help us move faster and save time. It isn’t a place to rest,” the 24-year-old says. “I often see tourists block the way with their suitcases or chatting on the escalators during rush hours. It annoys me to no end.”
Admitting she is not the patient type, Zhao says things are much better in Hong Kong than in cities on the mainland where “stand right, walk left” signs are often ignored.
The logic behind the “stand right, walk left” escalator etiquette(礼仪) seems obvious. Even though you may want to catch your breath while you’re transported up or down, you should still consider others and leave enough space for people in a hurry, so that they can run and catch the train.
Many cities’ escalators, including London’s and Beijing’s, use the “stand right, walk left” system to speed up the flow of people. (Australia is an exception and you should stand on the left side instead.) But some cities discourage people from moving on escalators out of safety reasons. In Hong Kong’s subway stations there are regular announcements asking people to “stand still” on escalators. Even so, most people in this fast-paced city observe the “stand right, walk left” etiquette.
But the people who stand on escalators defend themselves by telling the walkers not to be so impatient. The BBC quotes one stander as saying: “If the person is in such a rush, why not just take the stairs? Even when the escalator is packed and there’s nowhere to move, I see these same people complaining about not being able to pass.”
Whatever the escalator etiquette is in the place you live or visit, do what most people are doing and always be mindful of others: leave enough space between each other, don’t stay at the end of the escalator, and if someone is blocking your way, a simple “excuse me” is enough.
1.In the second paragraph, the underlined word “It” refers to_____.
A. the author’s living in the big city of Hong Kong.
B. being crowded on the subway trains in rush hours.
C. people’s blocking the way or chat on the escalators.
D. people’s standing on the right side resting.
2.When on the escalator, a majority of local people in Hong Kong_____.
A. stand still as the railway stations require.
B. ignore the “ stand right, walk left” signs
C. use the stairs instead of escalators.
D. follow the “stand right, wail left” etiquette.
3.What can be inferred from the 6th paragraph?
A. Not everyone follows the “stand right, walk left” etiquette.
B. The BBC is against the “stand right, walk left” etiquette.
C. People should be patient and take the stairs if possible.
D. People shouldn’t complain about the crowded escalators.
4.Which of the following statements is the writer’s opinion?
A. People should stand right no matter where they are.
B. People should do as the Romans do and consider others.
C. People should do as they like on the escalators.
D. People should be seriously criticized when they block the way.

科目:高中英语 来源:2016届河南重点中学协作体高三第二次适应性考试英语卷(解析版) 题型:阅读理解
Do the exercise15 through 25,Give the different forms of the verbs on page50 of your French workbook. Read page12 through 20 of the Shakespeare play, and when you have finished that, don’t forget to fill the missing chemical symbols on the Periodic Table of Elements worksheet.
Homework is a major part of going to class, and it helps students grasp important concepts. Luckily, you can do a few things to make homework less painful.
First, be sure you understand the assignment. Write it down in your notebook or day planner if you need to, and don’t be afraid to ask questions about what is expected. It is much easier to take a minute to ask the teacher during or after class than to struggle to remember later at night!
Second, use any extra time you have in school to work on your homework. Many schools have study halls that are specifically designed to allow students to study or get homework done. It is attractive to hang out with friends during study periods or unscheduled time, but the more work you can get done in school, the less you will have to do at night.
Third, pace yourself. If you don’t finish your homework during school, think about how much you have left and what else is going on that day, and then budget your time. Most high school students have between 1 and 3 hours of homework a night. If it is a heavy-homework day and it seems like you have got an assignment on every subject but gym and lunch, you will need to devote more time to homework schedule, especially if you are involved in sports or activities or have an after-school job.
1.The first paragraph is probably ______.
A. examination items
B. a list of homework
C. some teacher training tasks
D. some learning methods
2.What is the author’s attitude towards homework’s effect on students?
A. Opposing. B. Impatient.
C. Approving. D. Concerned.
3.One way to reduce your burden of homework at night is to ______.
A. take part in studying teams
B. appeal for teachers’ aid at any time
C. focus full attention on teachers’ lecture
D. make full use of the time at school
4. Which of the following would be the best title of the passage?
A. Why Students Should Do Homework
B. How to Make Homework Less Work
C. It is High Time Teachers Gave Less Homework
D. Who is to Blame for Children’ s Poor Eyesight
