We are trapped in what we think of ourselves by holding onto our pride. We can be selfish and not willing to admit our most obvious mistakes. Pride eats away at us as we argue or ignore the mistake.Its happened to me. I have had too much pride and selfishness to apologize to a loved one I hurt. When I did want to apologize, I couldnt bring myself to face the other person. This is the pride Im talking about. Maybe apologies e difficult for men because theyre expected to be dominant (占优势的).Its like the joke that a man never asks for directions when lost. Ladies are more emotionally open than guys and are willing to express it. Still, both genders wonder how to correctly apologize.In shifting (改变)the focus on apologizing away from you, what does not apologizing do to other people? They feel hurt that you are not willing to municate your mistake. They lose trust in you as you hide behind your mistake avoiding reality. They bee angry with you, wondering why you will not tell them the truth. They may begin to counter your lack of apologies by not apologizing themselves and from this the relationship goes downhill as the two of you get caught in a power struggle.You need to municate your mistakes. A mistake you made is like a scratch and by not apologizing you are making the scratch a deeper wound and rubbing salt into it. You need to stop hurting the other person and yourself by learning to apologize. There is real power in apologizing and emotional healing.1.People find it hard to apologize for their mistakes because of their A.emotional feelingB.sticking to their prideC.making argument D.being trapped in lies2.Why are men more unwilling to make apologies?()A.They dont intend to hurt other people.B.They expect others to forgive them.C.They dont want to be considered weak.D.They arent good at expressing themselves.3.What bad effect will there be if you refuse to apologize for your mistakes?()A.Other people wont pay attention to you.B.You will lose confidence in yourself.C.You wont be forgiven even if you tell the truth.D.The friendship will get hurt and go worse.4.From the last paragraph, it can be inferred that Amunication can stop your making mistakesB.mistakes would turn into deeper scratchesC.apologizing is good for you and the other personD.apologizing is the most powerful in emotional healing语篇解读:每个人都会犯错,但是很多人犯错后因为内心的骄傲不愿意承认自己的错误,也不愿意向别人道歉,这不但对自己有害,还会伤害别人,进而影响人与人之间的关系。答案及剖析:1.B细节理解题。由第一段的We are trapped in what we think of ourselves by holding onto our pride可知,人们不愿意道歉是因为内心的骄傲,故选B项。2.C推理判断题。由第二段的Maybe apologies e difficult for men because theyre expected to be dominant可知,男士通常被认为处于主导地位,所以他们会觉得道歉很没面子,故选C项。3.D细节理解题。由第三段可知,如果你不为自己的错误道歉的话,就会失去朋友对你的信任,然后对方也不会向你道歉,最终导致友谊的破裂,故D项正确。4.C推理判断题。由You need to stop hurting the other person and yourself by learning to apologize可知,道歉对犯错的人和受伤害的人都有好处,故选C项。交流错误就是道歉,但是道歉不能防止人犯错,故A项错误;犯错后及时道歉就不会使伤害加深,故B项错误;由文章最后一句话There is real power in apologizing and emotional healing可知D项错误。【疑难词汇解读】1.eat away at 困扰,烦扰I wonder what was eating away at him.我不知道什么事情使他烦心。2.heal v.

Some want technical improvements such as quieter air conditioners or better sound barriers around major roads. Others want tougher laws to restrict noise from building sites or to require owners to take responsibility for barking dogs. But the highest priority (优先) was a noise plaints system that works.Brisbane City Council receives more plaints about noise than all other problems put together. So it conducted survey and found that about half its citizens are upset by noise in one form or another-traffic, mowers, pool pumps, air conditioners or loud parties. This inspired the Council to bring together more than 100 citizens one evening to talk through solutions to the problem.The meeting found the present noise plaints system bizarre. Depending on the problem, responsibility for noise can lie with the Council, the Environment Protection Authority, one of three government departments or even the police. So plaints often feel they are getting the run-round. When the people at the meeting were asked to vote for changes, the strongest response was for a 24-hour noise hotline to be the first port of call for all plaints.The meeting also favored regulatory measures, such as tougher minimum standards for noise in appliances like air conditioners. This even makes economic sense, as noise is a waste of energy-and money. Other measures the meeting supported were wider buffer zones around noisy activities and controls to keep heavy traffic away from residential areas（居民区）.59. According to the passage, what do people want most?A. Tougher laws. B. Technical improvements.C. An effective noise plaints system D. Tougher minimum standards for noise60. What does the underlined word bizarre in the second paragraph mean?A. reasonable B. wonderful C. strange D. responsible61.

Tougher minimum standards for noise in appliances are necessary.B. Traffic, mowers, pool pumps, and air conditioners are all the sources of noise.C. 90% of the residents are annoyed by noise.D. Heavy traffic should be kept away from residential areas according to the meeting.63. Brisbane City Council brought together citizens to talk through solutions to the noise problem mainly due to .A. the result of the survey carried out by itselfB. a noise plaints system that worksC. people asking for tougher laws on noiseD. requirements of an effective noise plaints system【参考答案】5963、CC ACA 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。【四川省绵阳市xx高考英语一模试题】Let These Plants Swat the Bugs for YouSome plants get so hungry they eat flies, spiders, and even small frogs. Whats more amazing is that these plants occur naturally (in special environments) in every state. In fact, theyre found on every continent except Antarctica.Youve probably seen a Venus flytrap. Its often sold in museum gift stores, department stores, and even supermarkets. A small plant, it grows 6 to 8 inches tall in a container. At the end of its stalks（茎）are specially modified leaves that act like traps. Inside each trap is a lining of tiny trigger（触发）hairs. When an insect lands on them, the trap suddenly shut. Over the course of a week or so, the plant feeds on its catch.The Venus flytrap is just one of more than 500 species of meat-eating plants, says Barry Meyers-Rice, the editor of the International Carnivorous Plant Societys Newsletter. Note: Despite any science-fiction stories（科幻小说）you might have read, no meat-eating plant does any danger to humans.Dr. Meyers-Rice says a plant is meat-eating, only if it does all four of the following: attract, kill, digest, and absorb some form of insects , including flies, butterflies, and moths. Meat-eating plants look and act like other green plants-well, most of the time.All green plants make sugar through a process called photosynthesis（光合作用）. Plants use the sugar to make food. What makes meat-eating plants different is their bug-catching leaves. They need insects for one reason: nitrogen（氮）. Nitrogen is a nutrient that they cant obtain any other way. Why?Almost all green plants on our planet get nitrogen from the soil. Meat-eating plants cant. They live in places where nutrients are hard or almost impossible to get from the soil because of its acidity（酸度）. So theyve e to rely on getting nitrogen from insects and small animals. In fact, nutrient-rich soil is poisonous to meat-eating plants. Never fertilize（施肥）them! But dont worry, either, if they never seem to catch any insects. They can survive, but theyll grow very slowly.64. Venus flytrapA. is a small plant which grows in a container.B. is a kind of plant which gets hungry easily.C. can attract, kill, digest and absorb some form of insects.D. grows 6-8 inches tall65. From the passage, we know .A. meat-eating plants are found on every continent.B. all green plants get nitrogen from the soil.C. bug-catching leaves make meat-eating different from other plants.D. some meat-eating plants in the rainforest do danger to humans.66. Meat-eating plants grow very slowly, .A. so youd better fertilize themB. probably because the source of nitrogen is cut off.C. simply because they cant absorb nitrogen from the soilD. and then they will die slowly.67. Which of the following is true?A. Meat-eating plants look and act like other green plants.B. No insects, no meat-eating plants.C. The reason why Venus flytrap needs flies is that it needs to get nutrient from them.D. Green plants make sugar at night.68. What does the underlined word nutrient in paragraph 5 probably mean?A. 化学物 B.营养物 C. 肥料 D. 氮氢化合物【参考答案】6468、CCBCB 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项。【四川省绵阳市xx高考英语一模试题】Whats your earliest childhood memory? Can you remember the first time you heard thunder or watched a television program? Adults seldom recall events much earlier than the year or so before entering school, just as children younger than three or four rarely retain any memory of specific, personal experiences.A variety of explanations have been proposed by psychologists for this childhood amnesia( 记忆缺失,健忘).One argues that the hippocampus, the region of the brain which is responsible for forming memories, does not mature（成熟）until about the age of two. But the most popular theory maintains (主张）that, since adults do not think like children, they cannot access childhood memories. Adults think in words, and their life memories are like stories. But when they search through their mental files for early childhood memories to add to this verbal life story, they dont find any that fit the pattern. Its like trying to find a Chinese word in an English dictionary.Now psychologist Annette Simms offers a new explanation for childhood amnesia. She argues that there simply arent any early childhood memories to recall. According to Dr. Simms, children need to learn to use someone elses spoken description of their personal experiences in order to turn their own short-term, quickly forgotten impressions of these experiences into long-term memories. In other words, children have to talk about their experiences and hear others talk about them - Mother talking about the afternoon spent looking for crabs(蟹) at the beach or Dad asking them about their day at Ocean Park. Without this verbal reinforcement, says Dr. Simms, children cannot form permanent memories of their personal experiences.69. According to the passage, it is widely believed that_.A. it is impossible for an adult to recall his(or her) childhood experiencesB. adults virtually have no access to their childhood memoriesC. adults think in words while children think in imagesD. adults and children have different brain structures70. Trying to find a Chinese word in an English dictionary is stated in the passage to show that_.A. Chinese and English are totally different languagesB. it is unlikely to find a Chinese word in an English dictionaryC. adults and children have different memory patternsD. memories are in some way connected with languages71. According to Annette Simms,_.A. verbal reinforcement is necessary for children to have permanent memoriesB. there does not exist such things as childhood memoriesC. childrens brains are mature enough to form permanent memoriesD. children are generally inexperienced and unable to remember things they dont understand【参考答案】6971、BCA
