Still, I kept the porch light off because I didn’t want to be surrounded by bugs and moths(飞蛾) on this sticky summer evening. I stood there for a while letting my eyes adjust to the lack of light. My dog stood beside me waiting patiently for me to start her walk. It was then, though, that I saw them. First one blink of light at the far end of the meadow was followed by another and then another. I smiled. I recognised them at once as my firefly friends, who always showed up at this time of year. I got so much joy watching them first as a child and then as an adult. They never became dull or boring and they always filled me with delight. When I was little I used to sit in the grass and watch them slowly fly around blinking on and off. I never caught and put one in a jar as some kids did because I was afraid I might kill it and I never wanted to hurt these messengers(信使) of light. Their time on earth was so brief as it was. I tried to enjoy them each time they were here. It always saddened me when they disappeared in the fall and it always made my heart sing when they reappeared the next summer. I think I enjoy these little fireflies so much because I can see that we are like them in a lot of ways. Our time here on earth is brief. Often our light and love are more like blinks rather than a steady shine. Let’s share our light and love while we are here then. 4.Why did the author turn off his porch light? A.To avoid some insects. B.To adapt to surroundings. C.To search for his dog. D.To greet special friends. 5.What can we know about fireflies? A.They always frightened the author. B.Most kids caught and killed them. C.The author watched them every night. D.They usually brightened the author. 6.What does the author mainly convey through the story? A.Value our short life in the world. B.Protect fireflies as well as possible. C.Devote ourselves as much as possible. D.Share as many inspiring stories as possible. 7.What can be the best title for the text? A.A Special Summer Night B.Messengers of Light C.Human’s Best Friends D.Fireflies — Shinning Forever C (2021·河北唐山二模) A 293-million-mile journey of the NASA Perseverance rover(探测器) to Mars ended successfully on February 18, 2021, with a picture-perfect landing inside the Jezero Crater. The car-sized, six-wheeled rover, nicknamed Percy is the US space agency’s biggest and most advanced explorer to date. Its primary mission is to search for signs of ancient microbial(微生物的) life on Mars. Landing on Mars is extremely tricky. The Red Planet’s gravitational pull causes the approaching spacecraft to go faster to high speeds, while its thin atmosphere—just 1 percent of the Earth’s—does little to help slow it down as it approaches the surface. The scientists had to reduce Percy’s 12,000 mph speed to a safe landing speed of less than five mph—in just six and a half minutes. The target entry angle also had to be precise 12 degrees—any steeper, and the spacecraft would burn up; any flatter, and it would get lost in space. It is no wonder that the final approach is often referred to as the “seven minutes of terror”. Upon attaining a manageable speed, Percy briefly flew over the Martian surface to seek out the perfect landing spot. Its complex map-reading system rapidly scanned the area and matched it with maps in its database to find the best location. The NASA scientists spent the next two months testing Percy’s scientific instruments. Once ready, the rover would begin to carry out its mission. “Perseverance is the smartest robot ever made but confirming that microbial life once existed carries an unusually large burden of proof,” said Lori Glaze, director of NASA’s Planetary Science Division.“While we’ll learn a lot with the great instruments we have aboard the rover, it may very well require the far more well-equipped laboratories and delicate instruments back here on Earth to tell us whether our samples carry evidence that Mars once harboured life.” 8.What is the extraordinary challenge for the rover to land on Mars? A.The speed reduction. B.The atmosphere analysis. C.The location search. D.The time management. 9.What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A.Ways to find the precise entry angle. B.Consequences of a wrong entry degree. C.Factors to survive “the seven minutes”. D.Reasons for the necessity of speed reducing. 10.What does “it” refer to in paragraph 4? A.The spot. B.The area. C.The system. D.The surface. 11.What can be inferred from Lori Glaze’s words? A.Instruments aboard the rover are not quite reliable. B.Perseverance is able to collect enough evidence needed. C.Man still has a long way to go to prove life was on Mars. D.Samples of Mars will be returned soon to our labs on Earth. D I told my friend Graham that I often cycled two miles from my house to the town centre but unfortunately there was a big hill on the route. He replied,“You mean fortunately.” He explained that I should be glad of the extra exercise that the hill provided. My attitude to the hill has now changed. I used to complain as I approached it but now I tell myself the following. This hill will exercise my heart and lungs. It will help me to lose weight and get fit. It will mean that I live longer. This hill is my friend. Finally I comfort myself with the thought of all those silly people who pay money to go to a gym and sit on stationary exercise bicycles when I can get the same value for free. I have a smile of satisfaction as I reach the top of the hill. Problems are there to be faced and overcome. We cannot achieve anything with an easy life. Helen Keller was the first deaf and blind person to gain a university degree. Her activism and writing proved inspirational. She wrote,“The character cannot be developed with ease. Only through experiences of suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired and success achieved.” One of the main determinants of success in life is our attitude towards adversity. From time to time we all face hardships, problems, accidents and difficulties. Some are of our own making but many confront us through no fault of our own. While we cannot choose adversity, we can choose our attitude towards it. Douglas Bader was 21 when in 1931 he had both legs cut off following a flying accident. He was determined to fly again and went on to become one of the leading flying aviators in the Battle of Britain with 22 aerial victories over the Germans. He was an inspiration to others during the war. He said,“Don’t listen to anyone who tells you that you can’t do this or that. That’s nonsense. Make up your mind, and you’ll never use crutches or a stick, and then have a go at everything. Go to school, and join in all the games you can. Go anywhere you want to. But never, never let them persuade you that things are too difficult or impossible.” The biographies of great people are full of examples of how they took steps to overcome the difficulties they faced. The common thread is that they did not become depressed. They chose their attitude. They chose to be positive. They took on the challenge. They won. Nevertheless, there is still the problem of how you change your attitude towards adversity. 12.Which of the following is true according to the author of the passage? A.Those who want to achieve success can’t expect to live an easy life. B.Climbing hills on bicycles is the best way to take exercise. C.Going to a gym is greatly beneficial to people’s health. D.People’s attitude towards hardships is the only factor of their success. 13.By quoting what Douglas Bader said, the author intends to tell us “ ” . A.Failure is the mother of success B.A bad workman quarrels with his tools C.Nothing is difficult to the man who will try D.If you risk nothing, you will have nothing 14.Following this passage, the author will further talk about . A.how his friend helped him to change his attitude towards the challenge he faced B.why it is important to keep optimistic in the face of trouble C.what steps to take to change your attitude towards the difficulties you face D.what great people have in common 15.Which of the following can be the best title of the passage? A.Different attitudes towards misfortune B.Face difficulties with a smile C.Nothing is impossible D.Life is full of adversity Ⅱ.七选五(共5小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分) (2021·安徽安庆高三二模) How to Make a Classroom Management Plan Students need to feel comfortable and safe in order to learn effectively. As an educator, you need to manage your classroom in such a way that you create this sort of environment. A classroom management plan is a strategy you create and carry out. 16 It can help you deal with negative behaviours as well. 17 Many classroom management plans begin with the teacher’s philosophy of motivation. Basically, it lays out what you believe about education and how students should learn. You can talk about the environment you want to create and how you plan to create that environment, both physically and emotionally. Set the tone on the first day of class. Start building relationships with your students by being friendly and getting to know each other. 18 So they know in advance how you expect them to behave. 19 Get your students’ parents on board by laying out your basic rules. You can also tell them about the systems of rewards and consequences. That way, parents know what to expect throughout the year. Set the example. 20 For instance, show you are respectful of each student’s ideas. It will let them know they can trust you. Be consistent.
