Leaving our hostel in the centre of Phnom Penh, we climb inside our small Tuk Tuk cabin attached to the back of Kiwi's motorbike; a bottle of water in one hand and a surgeon-style mask in the other we set off on our 45-minute commute. It is a familiar start to the day for me and two other volunteers. We are setting out to work in an orphanage just outside Cambodia's capital city.
The morning rush hour in Phnom Penh is crowded and chaotic. Kiwi directs our path between the trucks, 4×4 Lexus' and countless motorbikes, which often carry entire families. We reach the dusty highway, masks and sunshades firmly in place to protect our eyes and lungs. A mixture of concrete buildings and huts exist along the side of the road among a sea of rubbish. The residents often smile and wave as we pass by.
We turn onto a farm track. The last part of our journey is a roller coaster, jumping out of potholes(路面坑洼) and turning to avoid falling off the sinking road. We pass huts on stilts(木桩), skinny cows and farm yards where children jump and scream upon seeing us. The stream along the side of the road is almost bone dry and vegetation is rare across the fields.
Finally we arrive at our destination: the oasis(令人快慰的地方) is Samrong Farm. By the gates, a group of 10-year-old children compete in the area of marbles. We're greeted by the shouts of "Cha, cha(short for 'teacher')!" from several other kids gathering round. As we climb out of our vehicle, the sun is already hot and the oasis is as dry as the fields surrounding it. In such conditions you would imagine life to be hard, but you wouldn't know it to see the warm smiles and hear the laughter of the residents at Samrong Orphanage.
Compared to children in the Western World they have little and yet they give so much in generosity of spirit and enthusiasm for every day. Despite the journey, it is so good to arrive at work in the morning.
24. Where was the author going?
A. To Samrong Orphanage. B. To the oasis of Samrong.
C. To the capital of Cambodia. D. To the centre of Phnom Penh.
25. What word can be used to describe Kiwi?
A. Disciplined. B. Confident. C. Devoted. D. Ambitious.
26. What did they see along the farm track?
A. Dry bones. B. Shy children. C. Almost bare fields. D. A roller coaster beside it.
27. What can we learn from the story?
A. Enthusiasm of the children. B. Comfort of riding a motorbike.
C. Beauty of working in the morning. D. Pleasure of being in a different culture.
C
There seems to be a lot of talk these days about what is fair, and what is not. Most people tend to believe life should be fair. Some of the 99% seem to believe life has somehow treated them unfairly, and some of the 1% feel life hasn't treated them fairly enough. My questions are these: What is fairness? Is life fair? Should life be fair?
We clearly have no choice about how we come into this world. We have little choice early in life. But as we grow older, choices abound. I have long believed that while we have no control over the beginning of our life, the majority of us have the ability to influence the outcomes we attain. Fairness is a state of mind, and most often, an unhealthy state of mind. Our state in life cannot, or at least should not, be blamed on our parents, our teachers, or our society--it's largely based on the choices we make, and the attitudes we adopt.
Life is full of examples of the uneducated, the mentally and physically challenged people born into war-torn areas, who could have complained about life being unfair, but who instead chose a different path. Regardless of the challenges they faced, they had the character to choose contribution over complaint.
I agree that challenges exist. I agree that many have an uphill battle due to the severity of the challenges they face. What I disagree with is the attempt to use fairness to solve all problems in the world. Rules and orders don't create fairness, but people's desire and determination can work around most life challenges.
It doesn't matter whether you are born with a silver spoon, plastic spoon, or no spoon at all. A friend of mine came to this country from Africa in his late teens, barely spoke the language, drove a cab while working his way through college, and is now the president of a technology services firm. Stories such as this are all around us--they are not miracles, nor are they the rare exception. They do, however, demonstrate blindness to the mindset of the fairness.
28. What does the underlined word "abound" in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Change fully. B. Remain the same. C. Exist in numbers. D. Disappear completely.
29. What opinion does the writer agree with?
A. Most of us can influence the results we achieve.
B. Our background determines our choices.
C. People's desire and determination create unfairness.
D. We should depend on fairness to solve all problems.
30. What is the primary purpose of the text?
A. To promote efforts over complaint. B. To stress the importance of fairness.
C. To share an inspiring story of a friend. D. To prove that fairness is a state of mind.
31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Fairness Is Justice B. Life Is Not Fair--Deal With It
C. Fairness Comes First D. Fairness Creates Chances
D
You've stopped at a cafe on your way to work, and next thing you know, your latte foam is staring at you. You've had the same furniture for years, but today your cupboard looks sad. You're lying in the park with your friends, and now Jesus is floating by in the clouds--are they seeing him too?!
Why do we see human faces everywhere?
Until now, it has been unclear as to why the brain processes visual signals and represents them in our mind as human faces. However, researchers from the School of Psychology at the University of Sydney have tried evaluating this phenomenon.
The facial recognition response happens fast, only taking a few hundred milliseconds. From an evolutionary perspective, the researchers suggest that the benefit of "never missing a face" outweighs(超过) the error where lifeless objects are seen as faces. Despite knowing that the object you are seeing is not a human face, the perception(知觉) of a face stays. This is known as "face pareidolia".
Pareidolia refers to the tendency to impose a meaningful interpretation on an unclear stimulus(刺激物), making one see an object, pattern or meaning when there is none. Pareidolia was originally considered a symptom of mental disorder, but it is now viewed as a normal human tendency.
Pareidolia has been investigated by scientists and has been present in art and literature for a long period of time. In Shakespeare's Hamlet, Hamlet demonstrates his supposed madness in his exchange with Polonius by telling him that he can see a camel in the sky.
The researchers set out to investigate whether a detected pareidolia face would be cast off as a false detection or be analysed for a facial expression. The study participants were presented series of faces and asked to rate each face expression on a scale from angry to happy. The series involved a mix of both real and pareidolia faces.
The researchers have found that pareidolia faces are not cast off as false detections, but rather undergo an internal "facial expression analysis", in the same way a real face would. This is likely because humans are deeply social beings. Additionally, they found that biases(成见) often seen when judging human faces in the analysis of the pareidolia faces.
So, the next time that you see an angry tree, don't be surprised and remember it's not personal.
32. What is the function of the first paragraph?
A. To present a finding. B. To warn the readers.
C. To introduce the topic. D. To arouse the readers' awareness.
33. How do the researchers, from an evolutionary perspective, understand the facial recognition response?
A. Our brain is good at processing signals.
B. The image of a human face will last long.
C. Our brain wrongly interprets signals as human faces.
D. There might be risks when lifeless objects are not seen as faces.
34. What happens in a pareidolia?
A. People suffer mental disorder. B. People see an unclear stimulus.
C. People imagine seeing a human face. D. People interpret things meaningfully.
35. What can be inferred about participants seeing real human faces in the research?
A. They discount the facial expressions. B. They prefer real faces to false ones.
C. They tend to make biased judgment. D. They compare real faces to pareidolia ones.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
There have been several incidents in recent years where people died because of unsafe crowd conditions and stampedes(人群的蜂拥)，the latest one unfolding in Seoul, South Korea, with at least 155 deaths reported. This may leave some people thinking there's little you can do to survive a stampede. 36 But crowd-safety experts say there are several strategies that could help you avoid a potentially deadly outcome. Consider these steps below:
The key to staying safe in a crowd begins as soon as you arrive at the location, says Randy Atlas, a safety consultant based in Fort Lauderdale. 37 It's a piece of common sense advice that Atlas applies not just at big events, but even when entering almost any room.
If there's a sudden panic and crowds begin to push in a certain direction, your instinct(本能) may be to fight back and push the opposite way. 38 If you go against the flow, you increase your chances of getting tripped and knocked down. Another risk, according to experts: If you fight the crowd, you will tire yourself out quickly in a situation where energy is needed.
As you move forward with the crowd, it's best to move in a diagonal(对角线的) direction so you can potentially angle your way out of the situation. The goal is to get to the edge of the stampede where it's less likely that you'll end up stuck at a choke-point, like a doorway.
39 Look for a solid structure to stand behind such as a pillar or a wall. Other places to duck: behind a car or even a lamp post.
In many stampede events, people die simply because they are crushed to the point they can't breathe. But a possible way to avoid this is to place your arms in front of you, almost in a boxer- like position. That could give you some very valuable breathing room--literally. 40
A. Another potential way is to shelter yourself.
B. But that could be a big mistake, Atlas warns.
C. In this case, you don't necessarily have to wait and let time slip by.
D. Namely, he advises people to take note of where the nearest exits are.
E. It's a simple pose, but surprisingly effective and possibly life-saving.
F. Other events, such as a Halloween gathering, are likely to turn deadly.
G. Indeed, it's a frightening situation and circumstances may make it impossible to escape.

I was a vet in Yorkshire. One day I received a call from Mrs Tompkin asking me to cut the beak(喙)of her budgie's(虎皮鹦鹉).I armed myself with a pair of clippers and stepped onto the narrow strip of pavement which separated the door from the road. A pleasant looking red-haired woman answered my knock.
“I'm Mrs Dodds from next door," she said. “I keep an eye on the old lady. She's over eighty and lives alone. ”
She led me into the cramped little room. "Here's Mr Herriot coming to sec Peter for you," she said to the old woman who sat in a corner. Mrs Tornpkin nodded and smiled, "Oh that's good. Poor little fella can hardly eat with its long beak and I'm worried about him. He's my only companion, you know. "
“Yes, I understand, Mrs Tompkin. ”I looked at the cage by the window with the green budgie perched(栖息)inside. "These little birds can be wonderful company when they start chattering.”
She laughed. "Yes, but it's a funny thing. Peter never has said that much. I think he's lazy! But I just like having him with me.”
“Of course you do," I said, "but he certainly needs attention now.”
The beak was greatly overgrown, curving away down till it touched the feathers of the breast. I would be able to revolutionize his life with one quick snip from my clippers. The way I was feeling this job was right up my street.
I opened the cage door and slowly inserted my hand.
"Come on, Peter," I wheedled(哄骗). As l lifted him out, I felt in my pocket with the other hand for the clippers, Then T stopped.
The tiny head was no longer poking cheekily from my fingers but had fallen loosely to one side. The eyes were closed. He was dead.
Mrs Dodds and I looked at each other in horror. When I turned my head towards Mrs Tompkin, I was surprised to see that she was still nodding and smiling.
I drew her neighbor to one side. "Mrs Dodds, how much does she see?"
"Oh, she's very short-sighted but she's right vain despite her age. Never would she wear glasses. She's hard of hearing, too. "
"Well, look," I said. My heart was still pounding. "I just don't know what to do. If I tell her about this, the shock will be terrible. Anything could happen. "
Mrs Dodds nodded, stricken-faced. "Yes, you're right. She's that attached to the little thing. "

高三英语单项选择怎么复习
方法一：回归课本、舍弃生僻的介词短语
书上出现的短语、词组搭配要熟背，生僻的介词短语直接放弃吧。
方法二：做好笔记
记下老师上课常讲的点，阅读里经常出现的词组，总结每个词的惯用法和变形。
高三英语复习注意事项
1.听力训练最好不要戴耳机
针对听力的练习，因为高考英语是在下午三点到五点之间，所以为了习惯这个时间答题，有条件的情况下最好在这个时间段放听力。
2.作文不要背，心态很重要
千万不要让孩子整篇整篇地背诵范文，因为高考考核的是综合运用语言的能力，让你押中题的情况几乎不可能出现。所以大家还是重在积累，把平常遇到的、听力中听到的精彩词句都可以记下来，灵活运用到高考作文中去，整篇整篇地背范文反而会限制考生的思维，因此完全没必要。
按部就班地放慢步伐复习，不要搞突袭，调整心态，防止考试时状态不好出现问题。临考前的心态也很重要。研究近三年高考题，习惯高考题型防止不适应，不要一味要求难度，要梳理培养英语思维
冲刺阶段英语复习备考建议
1.将错题本和积累的生词、短语等有针对性地再复习一遍，切实做到“手中有粮，心中不慌”。
2.将不规则动词转换、词形转换、熟词新意和考纲3500词汇等需要积累的，尽可能地多筛查几遍，做到常温故、强化记忆。
3.结合点线面认真分析熟背各种题材作文范文若干篇，注意积累其中的高级句式和典型衔接词;同时，结合话题背诵材料注意不同话题的词汇和表达的积累。
4.认真研磨最近五年高考真题，把握高考方向，熟悉高考的出题规律。坚持每天保障阅读量，训练理解分析能力，确保考试时能马上进入答题状态。同时，注意及时积累阅读题中的陌生词汇和正能量的短文。
5.每天坚持做一些高质量的模拟试题和新颖的阅读素材，保持很好的手感和语感。
英语高考冲刺需做些什么
完形当作填空练，瞻前顾后理线索
完形填空考查主题意义、篇章结构、上下文理解及词汇辨析等。同学们要能够撇开选项把完形填空当作填空题来练习，这样既提高了逻辑思维和推理判断能力，从而能够“瞻前顾后”，找出“线索词”，准确把握上下文，并运用词汇知识完成任务。
阅读要善抓主题，作者态度是关键
阅读理解围绕文章的主题和体裁、上下文的生词、细节及推理判断能力进行考查，这需要很好地把握作者的态度。因此，同学们不能满足于弄懂每一道题，而应从作者的口吻和态度入手，把握主题句在同一种体裁的文中如何出现的特点，避免只见树木不见森林，能用一种普遍的方法去解决同类问题。
