Mikah Frye,a 9-year-old boy,was walking down the streets with his grandmother discussing Christmas gifts when he saw some homeless people struggling to stay warm in the cold night. Then he was thinking about a way to help the homeless to spend a warm Christmas.
That thought stayed in Mikah Frye’s mind and when he reached home,Mikah informed his parents not to buy the Microsoft Xbox gaming device he had asked for earlier. Mikah realised that by not buying the $300 device,he could instead donate over 30 blankets to the homeless. He knew how much it meant to be warm in the cold holiday season.
Three years ago,Mikah and his parents were the ones living in a homeless shelter. Having suffered a financial crisis,they too had lost their house,not knowing where their next meal would come from and sharing a blanket every night. Mikah was six years old then but he remembered what it was like to have to give back that precious blanket every morning.
Reaching out to the emergency shelter programme that looked after them 3 years ago,the family donated 60 blankets in the end,each with a personalised message of hope in Mikah’s handwriting stating: “They gave me a blanket,but I had to leave it. That’s why I want you to have your own blanket. Today,I live in my own house,and someday you will too. Your friend,Mikah.”
The homeless people at the shelter may not have been able to give Mikah a Christmas gift in return but his gesture was noted by the billion dollar company Microsoft who made sure that Mikah was fooled into visiting their store so that Santa Claus could personally deliver an Xbox from the company to him as a reward for making the top of “Santa’s list of nice boys” that year.
1.Why did Mikah give up his Christmas gift?
A. The device was out of date
B. His parents had a tight budget.

D. The cold weather during the holiday season.
3.What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs?

B. He finally got the gift he wanted on Christmas.
C. The company Microsoft fooled Mikah into buying an Xbox.
D. Mikah wrote a thank-you note to the emergency shelter he lived in.
4.What might be the best title for the text?
A. Mikah’s Precious Christmas Gift
B. Mikah's Giving Warmth on Christmas
C. Microsoft Rewarded Nice Boys on Santa’s List
D. The Homeless Needed Blankets on a Cold Christmas

[河南郑州2020高一段测]Year2020 seems to be the year of healthy eating. People are choosing to follow a vegetarian diet,and some have even given up animal products entirely.
But Joe Rogan,the most popular podcast host in the US,was against this trend and called January 2020 “world carnivore(食荤的人)month”. In his recent podcast,he reviewed his experience with “the carnivore diet”. Starting in January,he ate only meat for 30 days without any vegetables or fruit.
The podcaster tried the diet after the famous psychologist Jordan Peterson claimed that the diet could promote energy levels and mental health,according to Business Insider.
Rising to the challenge,Rogan posted regular updates on his diet on the popular social platform Instagram With the average day consisting of just 2 meals,breakfast would be 6 eggs or a steak,and dinner would include either another steak,such as beef, fish or liver.
After 30 days,Rogan said he felt amazed. He also wrote, “I lost 12 pounds. Lots of pains went away. My energy is constant,and I have improvements in my stomachache.I went into this thing thinking that this carnivore diet was kind of strange,but this is as good as I’ve felt in a long time.”
It has positive results,but some have pointed out the diet’s limitations. Speaking to CNBC,Linda Horn,a health expert at Northwestern University,said that studies show that a high-quality diet with a variety of nutrients is connected with “a better quality of life,long life and reduced risk of chronic(慢性的)diseases”. She added that the energy people claim to feel from the carnivore diet is probably not because of the meat. Instead,she said kicking carbohydrates(含碳水化合物的食物)causes weight loss and it makes people feel better.
While the carnivore diet may offer you some benefits,having a balanced diet will afford you more healthy benefits than consuming a single food group,according to Healthline.
1.How did Rogan respond to the vegetarian trend?
A. He helped promote it on his podcast.
B. He gave up animal products entirely.
C. He started to eat only meat for 30 days.
D. He suggested a “world carnivore month”.
2.What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?
A. How Rogan benefited from the carnivore diet.
B. Why Rogan tried the carnivore diet in the beginning.
C. How the carnivore diet helped people improve their health.
D. Why Rogan kept posting updates on his diet on Instagram.
3.Why do people feel better from the carnivore diet according to Linda Horn?
A. They get more energy from it.
B. The diet helps them reduce their aches and pains.
C. The meat in the diet improves their mental health.
D. They lose weight without taking carbohydrates.
4.What can be concluded from the passage?
A. Keeping a balanced diet is still a wise choice.
B. The carnivore diet has become a trend in 2020.
C. Further studies will be completed on the carnivore diet.
D. The carnivore diet is more beneficial than a vegetarian diet.

You’ve spent countless days waking up late,enjoying watching your favourite TV shows and lying on the couch. 1 It’s time to go back to work. Here are some tips on making the shift from vacation to work smoother.
Tidy up your workspace first.

It may take several days for you finally get readjusted and that’s perfectly fine. Stay calm,focused and relaxed. You’ll be back to your old routine at work before you know it.

B. Make a list of tasks based on their importance.

[山东曲阜一中2020高一期中]阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My family has always loved going to Disneyland. So in 2001,when Disney announced that they were opening California Adventure,it was a big deal. I remember I was only six years old when I went there for the first time. I’ve been told that as a child I was very naughty and energetic,but always well-meaning. I got a lot of enjoyment from making people angry. This relates to going to California Adventure for the first time ever with my grandmother and it is my oldest memory with her.
On this fine day of fun and all things Disney,we reached the park’s Ferris wheel,called the Sun Wheel(now Mickey’s Fun Wheel). If you do not know what the Sun Wheel is,I can briefly explain:It is the most terrifying Ferris wheel. Why?Well,the seat that you sit in,while 160 feet in the air,slides inwards and outwards as the wheel rotates(转动). If you rock it hard enough,it can almost do a complete 360-degree spin(旋转). This creates a terrifying experience because it is like a 160-foot-tall swing.
I stood in line with my grandmother,and neither of us had any idea that this was not an ordinary Ferris wheel. After a long wait it was finally our turn to ride it. We sat inside and began to rise up and that's when I discovered the ride’s special feature. I started with easy rocking and my grandmother began to fear for her life. Worrying we would fall out,she asked me to stop.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
Since I was a very naughty boy,I rocked it harder.

But to my surprise,my grandma actually enjoyed the terrifying experience with me.

(1)What was Grandma's reaction to the author's naughtiness?
(2)Did the author stop rocking?
(3)Was Grandma angry?
【参考范文】
Since I was a very naughty boy,I rocked it harder. Each time I rocked harder,she asked me to stop. But I was having too much fun scaring her and swinging around. So what did I do?I rocked it as hard as my little body could manage. It got to the point that my grandmother was yelling at the top of her voice, while kicking and screaming at me to stop. It was so much fun. The ride finished and I knew I was going to be in trouble.
But to my surprise, my grandma actually enjoyed the terrifying experience with me. I actually didn’t get into trouble, but she vowed to never ride it with me again. To this day, my grandma and I still recall and laugh about our terrifying Sun Wheel experience. She’s told me that she always thinks back to that moment when she thinks about how much I have changed since then, and I always think back to it as a fun experience with her that I will never forget.
