But did you once listen to the saying “Like mother, like daughter”, Here, let's come to understand what the words exactly mean. Husbands-to-be have traditionally been told，“If you want to know what your wife will look like when she is older then look at her mother.” Now researchers claim to have established the truth behind the saying. Experts found that the faces of mothers and daughters wrinkle and sag (松 弛) in exactly the same “pattern” as they get older. The experts scanned the faces of mothers and daughters and saw that skin and the soft tissues especially around the eyes showed the same pattern of wasting away and loss of elasticity (弹性). “The similarity becomes most apparent when the daughter reaches their mid-30s”，claimed the researchers who presented their findings at the American Society of Plastic Surgeons conference in Seattle. Dr Matthew Camp and colleagues at the Loma Linda University Medical Centre in California said studies of facial ageing up to the present had largely been observational and subjective. This is the first time that actually proves scientifically that your mother truly reflects how you will age. To measure the ageing, the experts examined 10 sets of similar looking mother-daughter pairs, aged from 15 to 90 years old. Using 3D computer modeling, the researchers found a consistent pattern of sagging and loss of muscle specifically around the inner corners of the eyes and lower eyelids in the mothers. Analysis of the soft tissue around the eyes found that it lost elasticity in exactly the same way. Removing the bags under people's eyes and other eyelids surgery is one of the fastest growing cosmetic surgery procedures in Britain just behind breast surgery. Ageing around the eyes and bags under the eyes are caused by the skin losing elasticity and muscles sagging with age. For the eyelids this results in an accumulation of loose skin which collects as folds in the upper lids and forms deepening wrinkles in the lower lids. At the same time, there is sagging of muscle beneath the skin allowing the fat, which supports the eyes in their sockets (毛孔), to stand forward to give the appearance of bagginess. The findings back up the perceived wisdom “mainly of men” that women will age like their mothers. In general women are believed to age more badly than their male, because female features are more likely to be affected by gravity and loss of muscle and elasticity. This is mainly because the shape of their face tends to change from oval (椭圆形) to square as the skin sags. On the other hand men have square faces throughout their lives. This is why facelifts are more common among women. A facelift is designed to offset this effect. At the same time the surgery can remove wrinkles. 语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。科学家们研究发现当年轻女性年老后会 长得很像她们的妈妈。 1(The author explains “Like mother, like daughter.” by telling us that ________. A(women are likely to lose elasticity of their soft tissue around eyes B(the ageing processes of mothers' faces and daughters' are very similar C(when daughters are about 35 years old, they are most like their mothers D(daughters' skin's losing elasticity happens in the same period as their mothers 解析:选B 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“Experts found that the faces of mothers and daughters wrinkle and sag (松弛) in exactly the same ‘pattern’ as they get older.”可知～B项 正确。 2(We can learn from the passage that ________.

I didn't know which way to turn except to head out to the country. On days like this I love to go where silence rules and the wind in the tall pine trees sounds like ocean waves along some deserted beach I've walked along in my memory. I called home to tell my wife Marianne I needed to think. She knows my “thinking days” and as she most likely laughs at them, she says “OK! I love you～” At first I headed to the city park. I told her I was going to where I used to take my kids — when I still had kids. That might give you an idea of what my down day was all about. My kids grew up, and I didn't. After getting my fill of moms and dads running, laughing and swinging their time away together with their five-year-olds, I headed out to a nearby state park. It is nearly in spring and the winds cry out “I dare you～”(Here ducks and cranes, rabbits and deer all steal your attention and replace the hurt of the day with awe and wonder. Here in the lateness of winter and the long wanting of spring, life stands still, as we humans know it. Here the birds fly where they want and when. The snow of colder days still holds on with its chilling grip. The ground is soft and muddy, giving new hope to eagerly waiting grass. But I, sitting alone in my car, listened to songs that brought back memories of “Daddy_Days” and challenges of a daring feat to “Walk across the creek on this log like me, Dad～” I, with all my troubles and much too sensitive to life to begin with, discovered that life goes on for everyone else even yours stops for a while. I met a man with bigger problems than I. He appeared to be in his seventies but seemed quite swift for his age. He stood near the edge of the road with a kite spindle in his hands. Seemingly lost for a moment, he stared skyward. The string ended just beyond the tall tree and floated across two more, nestling the kite atop the highest branch of the tallest tree in the park. Without speaking a word, I stood beside the man and gazed in amazement at what he had accomplished. There was his grandson's kite. How perfectly it landed and how appropriate it was! It was a replica (复制品) of a beautiful Bald Eagle with wings spread wide open. As the wind rushed through the tree tops, the plastic eagle's wings fluttered and flapped. It looked so real. Alas, the only solution the man had was to cut the string. His grandson believed Grandpa could solve any problem. Perhaps even climb up and get it. “You wanted it to fly as high as it could, Billy, didn't you,”“Yes, Grandpa. But I wanted to keep it forever.” “There just comes a time when the only thing you can do is to cut the string and let it go. By doing that, perhaps when it takes flight like an eagle does, it will come back to us.” the grandfather said. I watched the old man cut and release the kite as Billy's dream with wings snapped back and gently settled into its new position high atop the barren tree. As the two walked away, I looked to the sky and saw my answer too. Tears ran down my cheeks and with a big sigh I prayed ... “Today I have to cut the final strings that kept my two boys within my reach. I have trained them to fly like eagles. But I wanted to keep them forever. Maybe by doing this, when they two take flight like the eagle does, they will come back to me someday. ” The best lessons in life are learned by living it.

There's a big difference between giving up and starting over in the right direction. And there are three little words that can release you from your past regrets and guide you forward to a positive new beginning. These words are: “From now on .... ” So, from now on ... 1(________ Most things are only a part of your life because you keep thinking about them. Positive things happen in your life when you emotionally distance yourself from the negative things. So stop holding on to what hurts, and make room for what feels right. Do not let what you can't control affect all the things you can control. 2(________ Life is simple. Everything happens for you, not to you. Everything happens at exactly the right moment, neither too soon nor too late. For everything you lose, you gain something else; and for everything you gain, you lose something else. You don't have to like it, but it's just easier if you do. So pay attention to your attitude towards life. You can either regret or rejoice; it's your choice. 3(________ Change is like breath — it isn't part of the process, it is the process. In reality the only thing we can count on is change. And the first step toward positive change is to change your outlook. Prepare for the positive. Prepare for the new. Allow the unknown to take you to fresh and unforeseen areas in yourself. Growth is impossible without change. If you cannot change your mind, you cannot change anything in your life. Sometimes all you need to do is look at things from a different perspective. 4(________ Making a big life change or trying something new can be scary. But do you know what's even scarier? Regret. So realize that most of your fears are much bigger in your mind than they are in reality; you'll see this for yourself as soon as you face them. Don't let them stop you. Live your life so that you never have to regret the chances you never took, the love you never let in, and the gifts you never gave out. 5(________ Nothing is ever wrong. We learn from every step we take. Whatever you did today was a necessary step to get to tomorrow. So be proud of yourself. Maybe you are not as good as you want to be, or as great as you one day will be; but thanks to all the lessons you've learned along the way, you are so much better than you used to be. 答案:1,5 FDBAE ?.短文改错 (2014?长春高三一调)It was our English teacher's birthday yesterday.

It quickly attracted famous names such as Alec Guinness, Richard Burton, Dame Margot Fonteyn and Marlene Dietrich as well as the big symphony orchestras (交响乐团)(It became a fixed event every August and now attracts 400,000 people yearly. At the same time, the “Fringe” appeared as a challenge to the official festival.Eight theatre groups turned up uninvited in 1947, in the belief that everyone should have the right to perform, and they did so in a public house disused for years. Soon, groups of students firstly from Edinburgh University, and later from the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, Durham and Birmingham were making the journey to the Scottish capital each summer to perform theatre by little-known writers of plays in small church halls to the people of Edinburgh. Today the “Fringe”， once less recognized, has far outgrown the festival with around 1,500 performances of theatre, music and dance on every one of the 21 days it lasts.And yet as early as 1959, with only 19 theatre groups performing, some said it was getting too big. A paid administrator was first employed only in 1971, and today there are eight administrators working all year round and the number rises to 150 during August itself.In 2004 there were 200 places housing 1,695 shows by over 600 different groups from 50 different countries.More than 1.25 million tickets were sold.

The answer came to me in an instant. It's not the one I gave, because the situation wasn't right. As a lawyer in the entertainment industry, I knew the audience wanted to hear some amusing stories about my work with well-known persons. But here's the true answer: The most important thing I've ever done occurred on October 8,1990. I began the day playing tennis with an old friend I hadn't seen for a while. Between points we talked about what had been happening in each other's lives. He and his wife had just had a baby boy, who was keeping them up at night. While we were playing, a car came screaming up the road toward the courts. It was my friend's father, who shouted to my friend that his baby had stopped breathing and was being rushed to the hospital. In a flash my friend was in the car and gone, disappearing in a cloud of dust. For a moment I just stood there, paralyzed (呆若木鸡). Then I tried to figure out what I should do. Follow my friend to the hospital? There was nothing I could accomplish there, I convinced myself. My friend's son was in the care of doctors and nursed, and nothing I could do or say would affect the outcome. Be there for moral support? Well, maybe. But my friend and his wife both had large families, and I knew they'd be surrounded by relatives who would provide more than enough comfort and support, whatever happened. All I could do at the hospital, I decided, was get in the way. Also, I had planned a full day with my family, who were waiting for me to get home. So I decided to head back to my house and check in with my friend later. As I started my car, I realized that my friend had left his truck and keys at the courts. I now faced another problem. I couldn't leave the keys in the truck.So I decided to go to the hospital and give him the keys. When I arrived, I was directed to a room where my friend and his wife were waiting. As I had thought, the room was filled with family members silently watching my friend comfort his wife. I went in and stood by the door, trying to decide what to do next. Soon a doctor appeared. He approached my friend and his wife, and in a quiet voice told them that their son had died. For a long time the two held each other and cried, unaware of the rest of us standing around in pained silence. After they had calmed themselves, the doctor suggested they might want to spend a few moments with their son. My friend and his wife stood up and walked past their family. When they reached the door, my friend's wife saw me standing in the corner. She came over and hugged me and started to cry. My friend hugged me, too, and said，“Thanks for being here.” For the rest of that morning, I sat in the emergency room of that hospital and watched my friend and his wife hold the body of their infant son, and say goodbye. It's the most important thing I have ever done. The experience taught me two lessons. First: The most important thing I've ever done happened when I was completely helpless. None of the things I had learned in university, in three years of law school or in six years of legal practice were of any use in that situation. Something terrible was happening to people I cared about, and I was powerless to change the outcome. All I could do was stand by and watch it happen.And yet it was critical that I do just that — just be there when someone needed me. Second: The most important thing I've ever done almost didn't happen because of things I had learned in classrooms and professional life. Law school taught me how to take a set of facts, break them down and organize them. These skills are critical for lawyers. When people come to us for help, I almost forgot how to feel. Today I have no doubt that I should have leapt into my car without hesitation and followed my friend to the hospital. From that one experience I learned that the most important thing in life isn't the money you make, the status you attain or the honors you achieve._The_most_important_thing_in_life_ is_the_kids'_team_you_coach_or_the_poem_you_write_—_or_the_time_when_you're_just_someb ody's_friend._ 语篇解读:人生最重要的是什么呢,名利,地位,不～都不是。人的一生中最重 要的事情是你为孩子们的球队做了一次教练～或是写了一首小诗～或是在朋友最 需要你的时候～你恰恰就在那里。 1(When he was asked about the most important thing he had done in life at a presentation, the author ________. A(felt it was not an interesting question B(thought for a while and spoke his mind C(gave an answer from a lawyer's point of view D(didn't give the real answer 解析:选D 细节理解题。根据第二段第一、二句“The answer came to me in an instant. It's not the one I gave, because the situation wasn't right.”可知～当被问到这个问题的时候～由于作 者考虑到当时的情形不符合～他并没有给出真实的答案。故选D。 2(When he saw his friend rush to the hospital, the author could not decide whether to follow mainly because he thought ________. A(he had to stay with his family B(his friend did not need his help at all C(he would not be of much help D(the baby would be in the doctor's care 解析:选C 细节理解题。根据第五段可知～作者认为朋友的孩子有医生和护士看护～ 自己不能做什么～也不能说什么～也改变不了结果～所以作者认为帮不上什么忙。故选C。 It can be inferred from the author's description of the scene at the hospital that ________. 3( A(he found that he was in the way B(he regretted that he went too late C(he would have felt guilty if he had not been there D(his friend would have felt better if he had not been there 解析:选C 推理判断题。作者本以为去了医院也改变不了最后的结果～只是去送钥匙 的～但是根据文章第九段中“She came over and hugged me and started to cry.My friend hugged me, too, and said～‘Thanks for being here.’”可以看出～作者意识到自己的到来帮了很大的 忙～朋友是需要自己的～由此可以看出～作者意识到要是不来医院的话～他会很内疚、很后 悔的。故选C。 4(In the story the author means to tell the reader that ________. A(you can certainly help a friend if you want to B(it is better to be there when someone needs you C(family and relatives can not take the place of friends D(more people are a great comfort when one is in trouble 解析:选B 主旨大意题。根据倒数第三段最后一句“... just be there when someone needed me.”可知～答案为B。 5(The author learned from his own experience that ________. A(what is taught in school is usually of no use B(a lawyer cannot learn much in classrooms C(a lawyer should know people's feelings first D(he needs to be able to feel as well as think logically 解析:选D 推理判断题。由倒数第二段倒数第二句“When people come to us for help, I almost forgot how to feel.”可知～我们不仅要学会分析思考～也要学会去感受。故答案为D。 6(We learn from the underlined sentence in the last paragraph that the author ________. A(is fond of writing poems B(is going to coach the kid's team C(is determined to make friends with everybody D(is fully aware of the importance of being helpful to those in need 解析:选D 推理判断题。本句话是文章中心思想的概括～强调了在别人需要帮助的时 候～我们应该在那里～因此选D。 ?.书面表达 (2014?金华十校高三联考)你校正在进行“英语读书月”活动，要求学生摘录名言佳句并 互相交流。以下是某同学摘录的句子:“You can't choose what you are given, but you can choose how you make use of it.”请按下列要求用英语写一篇100,120词的短文: 1(针对摘录句中的观点谈谈你的看法; 2(举例说明理由。 注意:短文的开头已给出(不计入总词数)。 In the English Reading Month, one of my classmates recommended a quote to us which goes like this: “You can't choose what you are given, but you can choose how you make use of it”( ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ 参考范文: In the English Reading Month, one of my classmates recommended a quote to us which goes like this: “You can't choose what you are given, but you can choose how you make use of it”. I can't agree more. It is absolutely true that we cannot choose what we are given such as parents and family. What we can do is to make use of what we have. As long as we learn to accept the reality, stop complaining and do everything with enthusiasm, we are certain to succeed. Take my best friend for example. Three years ago he failed an important exam and became a student in an ordinary school. Though disappointed he found the teachers patient and the atmosphere friendly. He decided to make use of it. By working hard he soon became one of the top students. His experience tells us that it is not what you are given but how you make use of it that determines who you are.

I would think and hope in any cultural background this applies. I'm not 100% sure because I do not live in India or other countries but you will respect yourself more and most others will also if you stand your ground. This doesn't mean to be offensive or bad-tempered or act like they are acting towards you; it just means not allowing them to put you down. In a loving, strong way saying，“I do not deserve this or I will not accept this or a simple please, do not treat me that way; I don't treat you that way.” If you are in an environment where this is inevitable and you cannot get out, then it's time for you to choose how you take in this information and negativity. My main teaching is whatever you focus on is what you get — so focus on the positive. If you can pick out one thing that is good about the environment, focus on that. I'd much rather see you move onto a more positive space but some are unable. Most of you who write tell me you are a strong person, yet the negativity is so strong it is defeating you. I can understand how you would feel that way but in order for you to stay healthy, mentally and physically, you will have to be the one to make a change. I know that is not always the answer we want to hear but it sometimes is the correct one. I had to change in order for my mom to change towards me and believe me I just wanted her to change but I did and it worked; my change brought about her thinking and feeling differently and thus bringing us a better relationship in the end. If you can surround yourself with positive quotes, sayings, stories, words or anything that makes you happy, it could even be a picture, do so! Print out quotes from this site. If you can't keep them out in the open, put them in your purse, wallet, handbag, knapsack or pocketbook if you use one. Many of you also wrote to me about an article that said to pat yourself on the back. We all deserve a pat on the back. We enjoy telling others all the good they do or thanking them for their kindness or help but we rarely do it to ourselves. It's time ... isn't it? We deserve a pat on the back too. It doesn't mean we think we are any better than anyone else just that we are doing a good job here on this earth ... and that's okay! Be grateful for what you do have and do your best to forget about what you do not have. Realize that situations that didn't work for you in the past actually happened for bigger and better things to happen. Enjoy the present and the future; let go of what_could've,_should've，would've. You can't get that back so why keep absorbed in it? You are only hurting yourself.Life has something so much better in store for you. You'll see. All in all, we are in control of our thoughts. No matter what is going on around us, we choose what we think so let's make them better thoughts. As I said, it's not always easy and sometimes not even doable at the moment but if we practice doing it often, it becomes more and more a part of our lives and it does get easier as the years go along. This doesn't mean we won't experience grief, loss, heartbreak and other issues but it means we can learn and grow and just keeping getting better and better and handling them and choosing to be happier and more joyful within ourselves. 语篇解读:本文是一篇议论文。主要论述你对别人的态度决定了别人对你 的态度这一观点。 1(What mainly determines others' attitude to you?

It came from a neighboring state, where the family's only surviving relative lived. It was Sally's relative — a distant relative by the name of Tilbury Foster, seventy and single. Tilbury now wrote to Sally, saying he should shortly die, and should leave him thirty thousand dollars, cash; not for love, but because money had given him most of his troubles, and he wished to place it where there was good hope that it would continue its evil work. The bequest would be found in his will, and would be officially handed over provided that Sally should be able to prove to the executors (遗嘱执行人)( As soon as Aleck had partially recovered from the strong emotions created by the letter, she sent someone to the relative's home and subscribed for the local paper. For the rest of the day Sally made confusion with his books, and Aleck could not keep her mind on her affairs, not even take up a flower-pot or book or a stick of wood without forgetting what she had intended to do with it. For both were dreaming. “Thirty thousand dollars～” All day long Aleck was absorbed in planning how to invest it, Sally in planning how to spend it. There was no romance-reading that night. The children took themselves away early, for their parents were silent, disturbed, and strangely unentertaining. Two pencils had been busy during that hour — note-making; in the way of plans. It was Sally who broke the stillness at last. He said, with excitement, “Ah, it'll be grand, Aleck! Out of the first thousand we'll have a horse and a buggy for summer, and a cutter and a skin lap-robe for winter.” Aleck responded with decision and calmness. “You can spend a part of it. But the whole of the capital must be put right to work.” “Why, yes, yes, of course. Have you got it invested yet,” “No, there's no hurry about that; I must look around first, and think, er ... I've turned it over twice; once in oil and once in wheat.” “Why, Aleck, it's splendid! What does it amount to,” “I think — well, to be on the safe side, about a hundred and eighty thousand clear, though it will probably be more.” “My! Isn't it wonderful? Good heaven! Luck has come our way at last, Aleck～” Then they went up to bed, but they left the candle burning in the sitting room. They did not remember until they were undressed; then Sally was for letting it burn; he said they could afford it, if it was a thousand. But Aleck went down and put it out. A good job, too; for on her way back she hit on a scheme that would turn the hundred and eighty thousand into half a million before it had had time to get cold. 语篇解读:本文为一篇记叙文。本文讲述了一个关于钱的故事:为了继续获利～ Tilbury将他的三万美元作为遗产给了Sally——他的远房亲戚～不是因为爱～而 是想让他们投资以继续获利。在获得支票后～这对夫妻整天沉浸在投资获得高 额回报的梦想中。 1(Why would Tilbury like to give all his money to Sally?

Two centuries ago there were dozens of independent states in German-speaking Europe. Today there are only four: Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Liechtenstein. Located between Switzerland and Austria, the Principality (公国) of Liechtenstein is defined by the mighty Alps to the east, the baby Rhine River to the west, and a strong fortress protecting the mouth of its valley to the south. This strange place of medieval feudal politics is just about 62 square miles. It's truly land-locked, without a seaport or even an airport. Liechtensteiners, who number about 35,000 and speak German, are mostly Catholic and have a stubborn independent characteristic. Women weren't given the vote until 1984. The country's made up of 11 villages. The village of Triesenberg, high above the valley, gathers around its onion-domed church, which recalls the settlers who arrived here centuries ago from the western part of Switzerland. The town of Vaduz sits on the valley floor. While it has only 5,000 people, it's the country's capital. Its pedestrianized (行人专用化的) main street is lined with modern art and hotels bordering a district of office parks. Historically, Europe's tiny countries have offered businesses special tax and accounting incentives (激励). For a place with such a small population, Liechtenstein has a lot of businesses. Many European companies locate here to take advantage of its low taxes. And that's how the Prince of Liechtenstein, whose castle lies above his domain (领土), likes it. The billionaire prince uses more real political power in his land than any other European royalty. The National Museum tells the story of the Prince and his country. Their family crest (饰章) dates to the Middle Ages, when the Liechtenstein family were close friends with the Hapsburg family, who ruled the Holy Roman Empire. The Liechtenstein family purchased this piece of real estate (房产) from the Holy Roman Emperor. In 1719, the domain was granted principality status, answering only to the emperor. The Liechtenstein princes, who lived near Vienna, saw their new country merely as a status symbol and didn't even bother to visit for decades. In fact, it wasn't until the 20th century that the first Liechtenstein prince actually lived here. In 1806, during the Napoleonic age, Liechtenstein's obligations to the Hapsburg emperor disappeared, and the country was granted true independence. Later, after World War ?， tough times forced the principality to enter into an economic union with Switzerland. To this day Liechtenstein enjoys a close working relationship with its Swiss neighbours, and, like Switzerland, a big part of its modern economy is tourism and sports, hosting visitors enjoying its dramatic natural beauty. Ski lifts, busy both winter and summer, take nature-lovers to the dizzying ridge that serves as the border with Austria. Even in little, little Liechtenstein the views are big and the hiking possibilities go on and on. 语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。位于瑞士和奥地利之间的列支敦士登公国是世 界上的袖珍国家～占地不大～人口不多～没有海港和飞机场～但是那里的税收 低～吸引了许多欧洲的公司来此投资～而且那里还有美丽的自然风光。 5(Where is the Principality of Liechtenstein situated?
