I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words, because they convey regret, lost opportunities, mistakes, and disappointment.My father is famous in our family for saying, “Take the extra minute to do it right.” I always try to live by the “extra minute” rule. When my children were young and likely to cause accidents, I always thought about what I could do to avoid an “if only” moment, whether it was something minor like moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a counter, or something that required a little more work such as taping padding (衬垫) onto the sharp corners of a glass coffee table.I dont only avoid those “if only” moments when it es to safety. Its equally important to avoid “if only” in our personal relationships. We all know people who lost a loved one and regretted that they hadforegonean opportunity to say “I love you” or “I forgive you.” When my father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday, I told him that it was a holiday for my pany and I wouldnt be here. But then I thought about the fact that hes 84 years old and I realized that I shouldnt give up an opportunity to see him. I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all.I know there will still be occasions when I have to say “if only” about something, but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality. And even though it takes an extra minute to do something right, or it occasionally takes an hour or two in my busy schedule to make a personal connection, I know that Im doing the right thing. Im buying myself peace of mind and thats the best kind of insurance for my emotional well-being.4. Why does the writer regard “if only” as two of the saddest words in the English language?A. Because people use them when they feel sadB. Because they express regrets and disappointment in lifeC. Because the remind the writer of some sad experiencesD. Because they mean sadness in the English language5. Whats the meaning of the underlined word “foregone” in Paragraph 3?A. given upB. e acrossC. got throughD. held back6.

Advice from My FatherB. Avoidance of saying “If Only”C. The “Extra Minute” RuleD. The importance of Emotional Well-being【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. B【解析】这篇文章主要讲了作者认为“要是多好”是英语中最悲伤的两个词，因为它们表达着生活中的后悔和失望，所以要珍惜现在所拥有的一切，尽可能避免做后悔的事情，避免说“要是多好”。【4题详解】细节理解题。由because they convey regret, lost opportunities, mistakes, and disappointment.可知作者认为“要是多好”是英语中最悲伤的两个词，因为它们表达着生活中的后悔和失望，选B。【5题详解】词意猜测题。由We all know people who lost a loved one and regretted that they had forgone an opportunity to say “I love you” or “I forgive you”.可知我们都知道失去亲人的人当初放弃了一个机会说我爱你或我原谅你。所以划线词语意思是放弃，故选A。【6题详解】推理判断题。由But then I thought about the fact that hes 84 years old and I realized that I shouldnt miss an opportunity to see him. I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all.可知作者决定在复活节前的星期五去办公室，是为了陪伴她的父亲。选D。【7题详解】主旨大意题。由I know there will still be occasions when I have to say if only about something, but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality.可知这篇文章主要讲了作者认为“要是多好”是英语中最悲伤的两个词，因为它们表达着生活中的后悔和失望，所以要珍惜现在所拥有的一切，尽可能避免做后悔的事情，避免说“要是多好”。选B。【名师点睛】细节题，是指原文提到了某事物、现象或理论，题干针对原文具体叙述本身发问。一般包括直接理解题（在原文中可直接找到答案，常用who, what, when, where, why和how等提问。）语义转化题（需要将题目信息与原文相关信息进行语义上的转换，两者存在表达上的差异，有时需要进行加工或整理后方能得出结论）、数字计算题、排列顺序题、图表图画题等。抓住文段中的事实和细节是做好该题型的关键，也是做好其它类型问题的基础。小题1细节理解题。由because they convey regret, lost opportunities, mistakes, and disappointment.可知作者认为“要是多好”是英语中最悲伤的两个词，因为它们表达着生活中的后悔和失望，选B。CA California family drives a car that could help protect the environment. When Jon and Sandy go to the store or to their daughters soccer games, they drive in high-tech style. They drive a $1 million, fuel-cell-powered car. It may be the worlds most expensive car and one of the most environmentally friendly cars. The FCX is the first fuel-cell-powered car to be used by a family anywhere in the world. The FCX uses hydrogen and oxygen for fuel. Car makers have been working to develop vehicles that are better for the environment. They are developing cars that use fuel other than gasoline.And then what is fuel cell technology? Fuel cell technology works by changing the chemicals hydrogen and oxygen into water. This process produces electricity, and water vapor which es out of the exhaust pipe. Most cars release dangerous gases such as carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. Many scientists say these gases are major contributors to global warming. “The FCX is driven just like any other vehicle on the road, but without the gases which pollute the environment,” scientists say. Fuel cell technology has been around since the 1800s, but scientists have yet been to perfect it. They say it may take years before the technology is ready for widespread use. Another earth-friendly car is already on the market. Hybrid cars use both gasoline and an electric motor. They are being more popular with customers because they cut pollution and improve fuel efficiency.8. Which of the following about the FCX is not true?A. It lets out dangerous gases to pollute the air.B. It may be the most expensive car in the world.C. It is one of the most environmentally friendly cars.D. It uses hydrogen and oxygen for fuel other than gasoline.9. According to the passage, what is the major cause for global warming?A. gases from FCX.B. gases from cars.C. hydrogen and oxygen.D. water vapor from cars.10. From the passage, we know that fuel cell technology _.A. works by waterB. works by electricityC. has been widely used since the 1800sD. has a history for over two hundred years11. What can we infer from the passage?A. there will be no gasoline for cars.B. global warming has been stopped.C. people cant afford to buy cars in the future.D. future cars will be environmentally friendly.【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. D【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了使汽车更加环保的燃料电池技术。【8题详解】推理判断题。根据第二段中的“The FCX is driven just like any other vehicle on the road, but without the gases which pollute the environment”可知，FCX和道路上的任何其他车辆一样，但没有污染环境的气体。因此推断FCX不会排放有害气体污染空气，故A项正确。【9题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Most cars release dangerous gases such as carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. Many scientists say these gases are major contributors to global warming.”可知，科学家认为汽车所排放的像一氧化碳和二氧化碳这样的气体是全球变暖的主要原因，故B项正确。【10题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Fuel cell technology has been around since the 1800s,”可知，燃料电池技术从19世纪就开始了，现在已经21世纪了，至今已经有200多年的历史了，故D项正确。【11题详解】推理判断题。根据第二段中的“They are being more popular with customers because they cut pollution and improve fuel efficiency.”可知，因为能够减少污染和提高燃料效率，这种汽车将越来越受消费者的欢迎，为了满足消费者的需要，汽车生产商必定会生产越来越多的环保汽车，也就是说未来的汽车将是环保的，故D项正确。【点睛】推理判断题的难度在于要根据文章的已知信息进行合乎逻辑的推断，切不可凭主观臆断，例如本篇第4题，根据第二段中的“They are being more popular with customers because they cut pollution and improve fuel efficiency.”可知，因为能够减少污染和提高燃料效率，这种汽车将越来越受消费者的欢迎，为了满足消费者的需要，汽车生产商必定会把注意力集中于这类环保汽车，加大研发和生产，也就是说未来的汽车将是环保的。DAccording to new research from the University of Cambridge in England, sheep are able to recognize human faces from photographs.The farm animals, who are social and have large brains, were previously known to be able to recognize one another, as well as familiar humans. However, their ability to recognize human faces from photos alone is novel.The recent study, the results of which were published in the journal Royal Society: Open Science. Show the woolly creatures could be trained to recognize still images of human faces, including those of former President Barack Obama and actress Emma Watson.Initially, the sheep were trained to approach certain images by being given food rewards. Later, they were able to recognize the image for which they had been rewarded. The sheep could even recognize images of faces shown at an angle, though their ability to do so declined by about 15 percent the same rate at which a humans ability to perform the same task declines.“Anyone who has spent time working with sheep will know that they are intelligent, individual animals who are able to recognize their handlers,” said Professor Jenny Morton, who led the Cambridge study. “Weve shown with our study that sheep have advanced face-recognition abilities, parable with those of humans and monkeys.”Recognizing faces is one of the most important social skills for human being, and some disorders of the brain, including Huntingtons disease, affect this ability.“Sheep are long-lived and have brains that are similar in size and plexity to those of some monkeys. That means they can be useful models to help us understand disorders of the brain, such as Huntingtons disease, that develop over a long time and affect cognitive abilities. Our study gives us another way to monitor how these abilities change,” Morton said.12. According to the new research, whats unusual about sheep?A. They have large brains.B. They can recognize their owners.C. They can tell animals from humans.D. They can recognize human faces from photograph.13. How did the researchers train the sheep?A. By guiding them to follow their handlers.B. By showing photos of humans and monkeys by turns.C. By giving food rewards.D. By showing photos of famous people.14. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Sheep have a higher face-recognition ability than monkeys.B. The new discovery is beneficial to the study of cognitive ability changes.C. The sheeps face-recognition ability says the same when shown photos at any angle.D. The sheeps face-recognition ability may prevent some disorders of the brain.15. Whats the best title of the passage?A. A New discovery about Sheep.B. How Sheep Recognize Each Other.C. A Wonderful Scientist.D. The Life of Sheep.【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了研究发现山羊能够从照片中辨别人脸。【12题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段中的“However, their ability to recognize human faces from photos alone is novel.”可知，根据这个研究，山羊的非同寻常之处是它们能够从照片中辨别人脸，故D项正确。【13题详解】细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Initially, the sheep were trained to approach certain images by being given food rewards”可知，山羊被训练通过食物奖励来接近特定的图像，故C项正确。【14题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Our study gives us another way to monitor how these abilities change”可知，这个研究提供了一种监测认知能力如何变化的方法，也就是说这个新发现对认知能力变化的研究是有益的，故B项正确。【15题详解】主旨大意题。通读全文，特别是根据第一段“According to new research from the University of Cambridge in England, sheep are able to recognize human faces from photographs.”可知，本文介绍了研究发现山羊能够从照片中辨别人脸，因此本文介绍的是一个关于山羊的新发现，故A项正确。【点睛】主旨大意题难度较大，抓住文章主题句是关键，科普类说明文一般开篇就点明主题，因此对文章第一段的理解尤为重要，例如本篇第4题，根据第一段“According to new research from the University of Cambridge in England, sheep are able to recognize human faces from photographs.”可知，本文介绍了研究发现山羊能够从照片中辨别人脸，因此本文只是客观地介绍一个关于山羊的新发现而不是山羊是如何辨别人脸的。E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。How to make Quick Decisions For Your LifeWe make decisions every day. _16_When it es to making decisions, choosing the right one can at times be stressful, especially if the decision must be made quickly.
