根据下面资料，回答{TSE}题
I was out for my usual morning run and found myself stumbling through the late-summer heat, wishing I 11 a water bottle. I stopped under a bridge for a moment of 12 , I saw two young, scruffy men standing next to their sleeping bags. One smiled and gently 13 his hand as if motioning "hello" but didn´ t say a word. He wash´ t asking for anything. I 14 and made the same motion back to him.
As I started back on my run, I thought about how much we all 15 connection. In that moment, this homeless man seemed to want to connect 16 he wanted food or money.
We have all had 17 of feeling separated and lonely. I have felt lonely being in a relationship that was void of 18 connection. Feeling separation doesn´t 19 anything to do with being alone vs. being with people--it is about the human desire to feel connected by being seen and 20 by another person.
If your 21 is to spend time alone, practice saying yes to invitations. Practice moving towards rather than away from people.
We all benefit from connection. That homeless man impacted my day. After 22 him, I felt more grateful--appreciating all that I have. He triggered my 23 --I found myself feeling empathy for him. I had the choice to move towards separation or connection. Were there many ways in which he and I are very different? 24 ! Are there many ways in which we are alike! Absolutely! I can reflect on times in my life that like him, I was in a situation I had never 25, times that I felt broke, times that I felt at a low point. And as he may have been feeling this morning, times when I needed someone to stop and 26 me.
We always have a choice 27 whether we move towards separation or connection. Separation is looking at the homeless person 28 focusing on 29 unkempt he looks, and criticizing why he has a 7-11 Slurpee cup if he is out of money. Connection is acknowledging that he impacted my day by reaching out to me.
Pay attention today and notice whether you tend to move towards separation or towards connection. Pay attention today and notice whether that is working 30 for you.

根据下面资料，回答{TSE}题
It was not exactly a perfect night in Washington for Fourth of July fireworks this year, when fog and rain blanketed the sky and made the Independence Day show from the National Mall less impressive than usual to those who had staked out a spot nearby.
But if you had tuned in on Monday to watch the fireworks on PBS or watched it on your cell phone, you might have figured the sky was cloudless and the fireworks were crystal clear. You might also have wondered if someone had removed the scaffolding that has been on the Capitol dome for two years.
But many eagle-eyed viewers suspected something was not quite right, and PBS later admitted as much: It had spliced in firework footage from previous years with live shots.
The show did not inform viewers that they were watching a highlight reel of past colorful explosions. But "Seinfeld" reruns are one thing; fireworks reruns are quite another. And angry viewers vented.
"Because this year´ s fireworks were difficult to see due to the weather, we made the decision to intercut fireworks footage from previous A Capitol Fourth concerts for the best possible television viewing experience," the show´s organizers said Tuesday in a statement. "We apologize for any confusion this may have caused."
One Twitter user said it "could have been announced at the time", while another called it "a deceptive thing to do." A PBS Twitter account cast the decision as "the patriotic thing to do," but viewers were not convinced.
{TS}According to the passage, "eagle-eyed viewers" refer to those ___________.
A、who are able to notice the suspicious points of fireworks that are difficult to find out
B、who are not able to see the fireworks clearly because of bad weather
C、who become aware of things through the senses
D、who observe and comment on something
32
PBS claimed that they intercut fireworks footage from previous concerts for ___________.
A、better viewing experience
B、saving cost
C、"Seinfeld" show
D、showing a new clipping technology
33
Which of the following is NOT the reasons why viewers suspected something was not right about the fireworks show on PBS?
A、The weather on screen was too good.
B、The fireworks were too clear.
C、The scaffolding on the Capitol dome disappeared.
D、The fireworks lasted for such a long time.
34
According to the passage, viewers think PBS´ s decision is ___________.
A、understandable
B、patriotic
C、deceptive
D、unbiased
35
The best title for this passage is ___________.
A、How to Make a Full Fireworks Show
B、Smart Viewers and Clumsy Film Producers
C、An Apology Statement From PBS
D、PBS Admits Using Old Fireworks Footage in Fourth of July Broadcast

根据下面资料，回答{TSE}题
For most of.recorded human history, marriage was an arrangement designed to maximize financial stability. Elizabeth Abbott, the author of A History of Marriage, explains that in ancient times, marriage was intended to unite various parts of a community, establishing beneficial economic relationships.
"Because it was a financial arrangement, it was thought of and operated as such. It was a contract between families. For example, let´ s say I am a printer and you make paper, we might want a marriage between our children because that will improve our businesses." Even the honeymoon,often called the "bridal tour", was a communal affair, with parents, brothers and sisters, and other close relatives traveling together to reinforce their new familial relationships.
By the Middle Ages, gender inequality was not only honored in social customs, but also common law. In most European countries, married women were forced to give up control over any personal wealth and property rights to their husbands. Eventually, the system became known as "coverture", whereby married couples became a single legal entity in which the husband had all power.
By the 19th century, the conflict between love and money had come to a head. As the Western world advanced towards a more modem, industrialized society built on wage labor, emotional bonds became more private, focused more on immediate family and friends than. communal celebrations.Simultaneously, mass media helped make sentimental inclinations a larger part of popular culture, with the flourishing of holidays like Valentine´ s Day and various hobbies.
Culturally speaking, love was in the air, and the union of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert in 1840 only served to seal the deal. Though Victoria and Albert´s marriage was sanctioned by their royal families, it was also hailed as a true "love match", strengthening the new ideal of romantic partnership. Their wedding also coincided with the surge of early print media, making the event visible to readers all across Europe and North America.

A、A printer married with a papermaker in order to improve their businesses,
B、The role honeymoon played in a marriage,

D、The relationship between married couples.

A、the etiquette of a married man
B、to do someone' s work or duties while they' re away
C、action that is taken to hide a mistake or illegal activity from the public
D、a legal doctrine whereby, upon marriage, a woman's legal rights and obligations were subsumed by those of her husband

Clothes play a critical part in the conclusions we reach by providing clues to who people are, who they are not, and who they would like to be. They tell us a good deal about the wearer´s background, personality, status, mood, and social outlook.
Since clothes are such an important source of social information, we can use them to manipulate people´s impression of us. Our appearance assumes particular significance in the initial phases of interaction that is likely to occur. An elderly middle-class man or woman may be alienated by a young adult who is dressed in an unconventional manner, regardless of the person´s education, background, or interests.
People tend to agree on what certain types of clothes mean. Adolescent girls can easily agree on the lifestyles of girls who wear certain outfits, including the number of boyfriends they likely have had and whether they smoke or drink_ Newscasters, or the announcers who read the news on TV, are considered to be more convincing, honest, and competent when they are dressed conservatively. And college students who view themselves as taking an active role in their interpersonal relationships say they are concerned about the costumes they must wear to play these roles successfully. Moreover, many of us can relate instances in which the clothing we wore changed the way we felt about ourselves and how we acted. Perhaps you have used clothing to gain confidence when you anticipated a stressful situation, such as a job interview, or a court appearance.
In the workplace, men have long had well-defined precedents and role models for achieving success. It has been otherwise for women. A good many women in the business world are uncertain about the appropriate mixture of "masculine" and "feminine" attributes they should convey by their professional clothing. The variety of clothing alternatives to women has also been greater than that available for men. Male administrators tend to judge women more favorably for managerial positions when the women display less "feminine" grooming--shorter hair, moderate use of make-up, and plain tailored clothing. As one male administrator confessed, "An attractive woman is definitely going to get a longer interview, but she won´t get a job."
{TS}The clothes a person wears may convey all of the following information EXCEPT ___________.
A、the wearer' s temperament
B、the wearer' s social status
C、the wearer' s home address
D、the wearer' s mood
42
The underlined word "manipulate" in the second paragraph can best be replaced by" ___________ "
A、influence
B、manage
C、mobilize
D、handle
43
We can learn from the third paragraph that ___________.
A、every girl knows how to choose their own unique style of clothes
B、newscasters who are dressed conservatively tend to be irresolute
C、announcers who read the news on TV should wear certain outfits to gain confidence
D、the clothing a college student wore can affect the way he/she behaves
44
In the workplace, women ___________.
A、should display less "masculine" grooming in order to get success in their career
B、don' t have a well-defined dress code
C、are submitting to an impossible standard of beauty and success
D、should enhance their posture by daily wearing make-up

根据下面资料，回答{TSE}题
They may have lived some 1,700 years ago, but the ancient Maya had an incredible knowledge of celestial bodies, which they believed influenced everything.
Now a 15-year-old boy has studied astronomical charts devised by these ancient Mexican people, as well as satellite photos, to pinpoint the location of a forgotten Mayan city. William Gadoury, from Quebec has named the "lost city" in the Yucatan jungle K´aak Chi, or Mouth of Fire.
Satellite images suggest the lost city could be among the largest built by the ancient civilisation, which thrived between 300 and 700 AD.
Wondering why the ancient people built their cities far away from rivers and in inhospitable mountains prompted the teenager to look to the sky for answers. Incredibly, the brightest of the stars matched the largest cities.
"I was really surprised and excited when I realised that the most brilliant stars of the constellations matched the largest Maya cities." He told The Journal of Montreal.
He is said to be the first to make the connection, which could lead to further finds.
It was in the 23rd constellation, containing three stars, that he found two matching cities on the map, suggesting one has not yet been re-discovered.
To investigate further, he used satellite images from the Canadian Space Agency and Google Earth to search the dense jungle for any signs of buildings.
The photographs revealed linear features that "stuck out," Daniel De Lisle, from the Canadian Space Agency told The Independent.
"There are linear features that would suggest there is something underneath that big canopy," he said. Armand La Rocque, from the University of New Brunswick believes one of the images shows network of streets leading to a large square, which may be a pyramid. "A square is not natural, it is mostly artificial and can hardly be attributed to natural phenomena," he said.
It´s possible 30 buildings accompany an impressive pyramid at the site. If true, the lost city would be one of the five largest known to archaeologists, built by the Mayans.
Linking the position of stars and the location of a lost city and the use of satellite images on a tiny territory to identify the remains buried under dense vegetation, is quite exceptional.
Dr. La Rocque thinks William Gadoury´s technique could lead archaeologists to pinpointing the location of more possible lost Mayan metropolises.
{TS}What is the general tone of the author in this passage?
A、Dogmatic.
B、Persuasive.
C、Impersonal.
D、Ironic.
46
It can be learned from the passage that the newly-found Maya city was ___________.
A、found in a jungle
B、built along rivers 1,700 years ago
C、built far away from rivers 300 years ago
D、built along rivers between 300 and 700 AD
47
How does William Gadoury find the Maya city?
A、He studied the satellite photos.
B、He studied astronomical charts devised by these ancient Mexican people.
C、He found two matching cities on the map, suggesting one had not yet been re-discovered.
D、Both A and B.
48
Which of the following is NOT TRUE about Maya?
A、The ancient Maya were interested in celestial bodies.
B、All Mayan cities were built far away from rivers.
C、Maya believed celestial bodies influenced everything.
D、The remains of Mayan cities may be buried under dense vegetation.
49
Dr. La Rocque believes that ___________.
A、more Mayan cities could be found near rivers
B、generally pyramid are surrounded by many buildings
C、a square could be attributed to natural phenomena
D、more Mayan metropolises could be found later by William' s technique

问题：以上是某小学英语教师为“We love animals”一课所设计的教案。请阅读并点评该教案，分析指出其优点与不足。(请用中文作答)(10分)
1、D2、C3、C4、B5、A6、B7、D8、A9、C10、A11、D12、A13、C14、B15、C16、D17、B18、D19、A20、C21、A22、C23、D24、C25、B26、D27、B28、A29、D30、A31、A32、A33、D34、C35、D36、C37、A38、D39、C40、C41、C42、A43、D44、B45、C46、A47、D48、B49、D50、D
1
考查冠词。句意为“西尔维娅-威尔金斯夫人——一位来自纽约的热切的业余天文学家——报告说观察到一颗身份未明的彗星”。an avid amateur astronomer是Mrs．Sylria Wilkins的同位语：all unidentified comet“一颗身份未明的彗星”，表示泛指。
2
考查词组辨析。这四个词组都用作插入语，常与little，few，rarely，seldom等连用，具有否定的意义。if any为省略语(=if there is／are any at all)，意为“如果有的话；即使有……也”。例如本题句意为“像爱迪生那样做出这么多发明创造的人，即使有的话也不多”。 if ever“如果有过或即使有过的话”；if at all“即使……也”；if anything意为“如果说有什么不同的话，若要说，相反”等，通常表示委婉的语气或表示把握不大的看法，或用于否定结构之后表示“相反”的意思。
3
考查too…to句型。“too+形容词／副词+动词不定式”结构简称为too…to结构。这种结构是英语中常用的一种句型，在大多数情况下表示否定意义，通常可译为“太……而不能……”、“太……无法……”。 too…to be v-ed是too…to结构中不定式为被动式时的变体。something是不定式动作delay的承受者，用不定式的被动式表示被动含义。句意为“我倒想做的，可现在有件急事不能耽搁”。
4
考查固定结构。give sb．to understand(that)…“使某人理解／了解／得知／获悉……”。句意为。她使我了解这件事背后还有一些秘密”。
5
考查虚拟语气。在“It is important(necessary,essential,imperative，urgent,vital，appropriate， advisable)that…”这类句型里，that所引导的主语从句中的谓语动词常用虚拟语气，即should+动词原形，should可以省略。句意为“把程序输入计算机是很有必要的”。故选A。
6
考查宾语从句的时态及语序。句意为“他问我当他第二天来的时候我会在做什么”。结合语境可知从句中表示的是就过去某时而言，将来某时正在进行的动作，故用过去将来进行时态，结构为would be+现在分词。宾语从句中一般为陈述语序。故选B。
7
考查连接词。句意为“他打开北面的窗户，从那里欣赏远处的山”。根据语境可知空格处表示“从窗户那里”的意思，所以介词用from，其后用which指代the north window。“from which+不定式”作目的状语。故选D。
8
考查主谓一致及时态。句意为“哭泣并不能解决问题”。由and连接的两个(或多个)动名词或不定式作主语，如果并列的动名词或不定式语义相同或相似，谓语用单数；如果语义不一致，则谓语用复数。weeping“哭泣”，wailing“痛哭”，语义相似，谓语用单数形式。根据语境可知表示的是普遍真理，谓语用一般现在时态。故选A。
9
考查词义辨析。根据语境可知，前后两句意思之间存在转折关系。besides表示“除……之外；此外；也”，没有转折的意思，可排除。其他三个连词／副词都可表示转折。但while用作并列连词表示“而，然而”时，主要用于对比两件事物，不符合题意。nevertheless和however均为副词，但nevertheless重让步，意为“尽管如此；不过”；however重转折，意为“然而；仍然”。根据句意“他遇到很多困难，尽管如此，他永远不会放弃”，选C。
10
考查交际用语。句意为“——Mary，记得下次到城里时来看我。——____________。”Sure, I will“当然，我会的”；It sounds great“听起来很好”；Good for you“不错啊”，是某人(将要或已经)做一件对他自己有益的事时，所表示“认同”的话；It’s all fight“不客气；没关系；没问题”，是用于别人向你表示感谢或道歉等时的答语。根据语境可知，A项最恰当。
11
考查谓语动词。根据句意“真希望我当时带了瓶水”可知，wish后面表示的是与过去事实相反的假设。从句谓语用“had+过去分词”形式。
12
考查名词辨析。shade“遮阳，遮蔽”，joy“开心”，light“光”，warmth“温暖”。根据前文可知，作者被夏末的热度搞得够呛，所以到桥下的阴影处乘会儿凉，A项符合文意。
13
考查动词辨析。put“放，安置”，tip“倾斜；给小费”，raise“举起”，slap“拍击”。根据下文“as if motioning“hello”but didn’t say a word”可知．应该是微笑着轻轻“举起手”好像在和作者打招呼。raise one’s hand“举手”．故选C。
14
考查动词辨析及上下文。shake“摇动，震动”，smile“微笑”，push“推，挤”，stop“停止”。前文提到有一个邋遢的人微笑着和作者挥手，而且他没有要求任何东西，所以作者也微笑着朝他挥手。故选B。
15
考查动词辨析及上下文。stay“停留”，ignore“忽视”，crave“渴望”，thirst“渴望，口渴”。根据下文“want to connect”可知，此处表示作者意识到我们是多么渴望与他人之间的联系。thirst是不及物动词，后面不可直接接宾语，常与介词for连用,所以该空格填crave。
16
考查短语辨析及句意理解。no......
