（2023•广东汕头•统考一模）In recent times, the sales of self-help books have soared in popularity. Here are our
picks of the best, and most highly rated self-help books to help tackle that new year anxiety.
Atomic Habits by James Clear
Nowadays people spend so much time planning, journaling, and writing in our diaries, rather than taking action
towards actually achieving our goals. This book is a step-by-step guide to fixing up your routine. It digs into the
psychology behind habits — how to form good ones and break the bad ones. If you’re a victim of procrastination
(拖延症), this may be the push you need.
How to Win Friends and Influence People by Dale Carnegie
This book is all about improving the relationships you have with others in your life, making you a better listener,
and overall a better friend. With simple tips such as including the person’s name in conversation and making sure
you’re genuinely interested in what they’re saying, you can ensure they will remember you. The core idea is that
you can change other people’s behaviour by changing your own, therefore building stronger relationships.
Untamed-Stop Pleasing, Start Living by Glennon Doyle
Part autobiographical and part self-help, it’s the perfect book to kickstart your year and start living for yourself.
Although this book could be enjoyed by anyone, the prime audience is women, as Doyle talks a lot about doubts
during motherhood, and the overwhelming need women feel to put everyone before themselves. Doyle shows us
our lives in a new light that without even realising it, we may be working hard to please everyone around us,
forgetting the most important person — ourselves.
The 4-Hour Work Week by Timothy Ferriss
“Escape the 9-5, live anywhere and join the new rich”. This best seller proposes the idea that you don’t need to wait
for retirement and delay your life plan. Instead, you can trade a long career for short work bursts and frequent
“mini-retirements”. Ferris says that people don’t want to be millionaires. They want to experience what they think
only millionaires can buy.
1．What can we learn from Atomic Habits?A．How to keep a diary.
B．How to learn psychology.
C．How to arrange your routine.
D．How to satisfy your needs.
2．Which book may attract housewives most?
A．Atomic Habits.
B．Untamed-Stop Pleasing, Start Living.
C．The 4-Hour Work Week.
D．How to Win Friends and Influence People.
3．Which of the following may Timothy Ferriss agree with?
A．No pains, no gains.
B．Idle young, needy old.

D．Fortune favors the bold.
B
（2023•四川•校联考一模）I’m a 22-year-old young man and came to China 4 months ago for the same reasons
most people of my age do. They want to see the world and expand their minds. To explore more about China, I am
currently teaching English in Guangdong.
China hasn’t been the expected. Before I came, I was an aware of the level of ongoing development within the
country. High-rise buildings, flat screen televisions, well-equipped classrooms... I found myself pleasantly
surprised. Like other foreigners, I saw the funny side of the language barrier and tasted the chicken feet. I gave in to
the flow of Chinese culture and haven’t looked back since, but it wasn't until today that I realized how naturally
similar it is to my own.
When the Chinese take a photograph, they won’t say “Cheese!” like we do back home in the U. K. Instead, they say
the word “Eggplant! (茄子).” Amused at first, I suddenly realized that I had no reason to be critical. Cheese?
Eggplant? Any difference?
China is home to one of the oldest and greatest cultures in the world. It is in this country that I have witnessed some
of the most beautiful scenes that the human race can offer. We all share a way of life, no matter where we’re from
or where we go. It’s my conclusion that though we shout random foods at a camera, at least, we’re all shouting
words from the same category. How different can we really be?
So, instead of grasping onto your own culture, take a break and allow the culture of another country to embraceyou. You may be surprised at the amount of similarities you find, just as I was this afternoon in sunny, southern
China.
4．Why did the writer come to China?
A．To copy others.B．To make a living. C．To learn Chinese. D．To satisfy his curiosity.
5．What makes a pleasant surprise for the writer in China?
A．The rich culture. B．The way of taking photos.
C．The unexpected modern life. D．The funny scenes in communication.
6．What lesson did the writer learn through his experience in China?
A．When in Rome, do as Romans do.
B．People should all shout “Cheese” at a camera.
C．People of different cultures share some similarities.
D．The more you travel, the more you appreciate home.
7．Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A．English or Chinese?B．Cheese and Eggplants
C．The Importance of TravelD．The Long Culture of China

（2023•黑龙江大庆•统考二模）Far below every town and city lies an invisible network of pipes crucial to the
lives of their residents. Once water disappears down a pipe or toilet, it’s out of sight, out of mind. The water flows
into containers that carry rainwater, wastewater and solid waste away. There are three main types of sewers (下水
道): sanitary sewers, storm sewers and combined sewers. Among them, sanitary sewers function as a city’s veins
(静脉). Water containing human and industrial waste is collected in sanitary sewers and carried to wastewater
treatment plants. There, the solid waste is separated from the water, which is then purified before being released
back into the environment. It will be reused for industrial, agricultural or environmental purposes. Furthermore, the
gas from water treatment can be used to produce energy. They not only contribute to a healthy environment and
good quality of life, but also achieve the goal of sustainable development.
While wastewater collection and treatment are critical to the health of urban residents, storm sewers also play an
important role. In urban areas, green has given way to concrete. As a consequence, there has been a loss of the
land’s natural water retention as concrete cannot take in rainwater. When an extreme weather event causes heavy
rain, storm sewers must cope with the water, so it does not flood the city. However, storm sewers are only part of
the solution to water management and flood prevention.To reduce flooding, an integrated urban management plan has been adopted, where all the factors — storm sewers,
land planning and economic development — are considered together. Engineering innovations, additional facilities
and increased green space requirements in new development projects have improved water retention in cities.
Sewers help improve urban public health, prevent urban flooding and boost environmental protection. Together
they protect vital water resources and maintain the safety of people and property.
8．What’s the function of sanitary sewers?
A．Cleaning dirty water. B．Collecting solid waste.
C．Delivering used water. D．Producing useful gas.
9．What does the underlined word “retention” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A．Absorption. B．Treatment.C．Purification. D．Distribution.
10．What’s the author’s purpose of writing paragraph 4?
A．To explain a complicated theory. B．To provide supporting facts.
C．To raise improved suggestions. D．To describe a recent phenomenon.
11．What is the best title for the text?
A．Urban Unseen Network B．Modern City’s Management
C．Extreme Weather’s Solution D．Wastewater’s Potential Threat

（2023•山西•校联考模拟预测）Math and music are two entirely different fields of study,but there is a strong
relevance between them. At some point, they tend to overlap, and it is common for people good at math to be good
at music. It may seem illogical to compare the two, but there are more similarities between math and music than
you would imagine.
Numbers can tell us more about music. Sounds strange but it’s true. Music is divided into sections that are called
measures, where each measure has equal amounts of beats. This is comparable to mathematical divisions of time.
Now, each piece of music will tell us how many beats there are in each measure. All the music notes have
numerical connections and a number of beats. It is important to understand the value of fractions (分数) and notes
to count the music correctly.
The biggest similarity between math and music in pattern. For example, music has repeating choruses while math
uses patterns to explain the unknown. You can use different mathematical phenomena in music. These include
geometry (几何学), signal processing, etc. In fact, research has shown that when music shows some mathematical
structure, it tends to be more popular.In addition to their shared elements, math and music can be taught using the principles of both. A student who
enjoys math and music can benefit from both. For example, music can enhance cognition and reasoning skills. For
instance, Einstein listened to music when solving math problems to increase clarity. Similarly, playing music can
improve cognition, as it increases communication between the two brains.
Music is a gateway to many things, and until now, you probably didn’t realize that it’s just as demanding,
analytical, logical and scientific as math. Something as simple as learning “Mary Had a Little Lamb” on the piano
is actually setting your child up for bigger and better things; maybe they’ll pick up Pythagoras (毕达哥拉斯) in a
flash, maybe they’ll be a genius in math, perhaps they’ll one day discover their own theory of relativity.
12．What does the author think about math and music?
A．Math and music are deeply intertwined.
B．Music is a totally different subject from math.
C．It sounds reasonable to compare math and music.
D．People expert at math all tend to be music lovers.
13．What’s mainly about the paragraph 2?
A．Measure is a piece of music. B．Math helps in reading music.
C．Music sound appears strange. D．Music beats equal to math numbers.
14．What statement will the author probably agree with?
A．Patterns are common in both math and music.
B．Certain music skills are practised via choruses.
C．Music principle seems easier than mathematics.
D．Reasoning skills in math chiefly rely on music.
15．What message does the last paragraph convey?
A．Musical involvement promotes to be a genius.
B．Music allows kids to combine math with piano.
C．Music offers kids potential success in mathematics.
D．Music may enhance the mathematics skills of all kids.

（2023•江西抚州•金溪一中校联考一模）Many people tend to peel(削皮)fruit and vegetables when preparing
them. But often, it’s not necessary.____16____What’s more, discarded(被丢弃的)fruit and vegetable peels cause
climate change.Fruit and vegetables are rich sources of vitamins, minerals, fiber and many phytochemicals that protect your cells
from harm.____17____In 2017, the World Health Organization reported that around 3.9 million deaths a year
worldwide were linked to people not eating enough fruit and vegetables.
Eating 400g of fruit and vegetables a day, as the WHO recommends, is difficult to achieve for many people. So
could consuming fruit and vegetable peels help with this issue by adding important nutrients to people’s diets?
____18____For example, nutritionally important amounts of vitamins, such as vitamin C, and minerals like iron
and zinc, are found in the peel of root vegetables like wild carrots, sweet potatoes and white potatoes. And the US
Department of Agriculture shows that unpeeled apples contain 15% more vitamin C than their peeled equivalents.
____19____According to the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization, uneaten food, including peel, generates 8%
—10% of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions. New Zealand alone reports an annual wastage of 13,658 tons of
vegetable peels and 986 tons of fruit peels.
Given the nutrient content of peel and its contribution to food waste, why do people peel fruit and vegetables?
Some must be peeled for different reasons. For example, their outer portions are uneatable, don’t taste nice, are
hard to clean or cause harm. Also, peeling may be a necessary part of the recipe, for example, when making mashed
potato(土豆泥).
Are you still confused about whether to peel fruit and vegetables?____20____
A．They can certainly contribute.
B．There are important nutrients in the peel.
C．Sometimes, it’s necessary to peel fruit and vegetables.
D．Actually, if many peels are eatable, don’t peel them if unnecessary.
E．With a little creativity, you can increase your fruit and vegetable intake.
F．Another reason for not discarding peels is their effect on the environment.
G．Not consuming enough of these nutrient-rich foods leads to an increased risk of deadly diseases.

Popularity is the state of being liked, enjoyed or supported by others. Natural, we all desire to win popularity in oneway or another. To enjoy popularity, we are supposed to regard the class as our big family and try our best to take
active part in all our class activities. We should be responsible for the work and keep team spirit on mind.
To be a popular student, we must show our respect, concern and sympathy for other. As a result, we never hesitated
to lend a hand to those in need. We ought to be strict with ourselves in everything we do it at school and make an
effort to achieve all-round development, be good not only at our lessons but also at sports, music, painting, social
services and so on. In time of success we remain modest, when in time of difficulty we keep strong-minded.
