阅读下面的短文,然后按照要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

Does Jay Belong in a textbook?

The fact that there are pop lyrics (明星作品) in textbooks show’s that students’ tastes are now being considered.

Yin Yue: Pop singers represent a part of our culture. That popular songs are selected for our books is a sign of progress. What’s more, this move will bring pop culture in contact with traditional culture.

Yu Kuntian: It’s not a bad idea. Pop songs in Chinese textbooks show that the authorities are trying to cater for teenagers. It may not have been a good idea to choose Jay Chou, but it is a start.

Pop songs in textbooks will mislead students.

Li Ning: It’s terrible. What we need are classics to improve our literary skills, not badly-written lyrics. As far as I am concerned, they have no place in our formal studies.

Teng Fan: I don’t think it’s a good idea. When educators include Jay Chou’s songs in Chinese textbooks, they are saying that he represents a literary standard to aspire (渴望) to. Also, including his lyrics means excluding work of more obvious merits(价值)。

【写作内容】

2. 以约120个词表达你对明星作品是否应该被教科书采用的看法,并包括如下要点:

(2)你认为如今的教科书的选材是否需要什么改变?

2. 作文中不能出现真实姓名和学校名称。

【评分标准】

概括准确,语言规范,内容合适,篇章连贯。

 

There is no doubt that the reasons of both sides are reasonable and worth considering. We cannot deny the fact that Chinese textbooks have played an essential role in cultivating students’ literary abilities, improving their writing skills and even leading them in moral choices, so the educators should rethink before they include the pop lyrics in textbooks. However, on the other hand, it is also practical and beneficial for some excellent pop lyrics to be included in Chinese textbooks. For example, some pop lyrics, like Jay’s “Listen to mother’s words”, which are well-written and morally positive, can find an echo among students. Such kinds of pop lyrics are surely living up to the standards of being included in Chinese textbooks. Therefore, I hold the belief that it is not bad to have pop lyrics in textbooks. Besides, I also think that the passages which will be chosen into Chinese textbooks can cover a wide range of topics so that students can broaden their horizons. Moreover, the chosen articles can be closer to our real lives and environment to inspire students’ enthusiasm in life. To draw a conclusion, I think educators can consider having articles of various topics and styles in textbooks. 【解析】本文在审题方面一定要注意文章的要求:1.表面立场;2.说明原因;3.如何改变。对于这个问题,仁者见仁智者见智。没有固定的答案,在表述原因时要使用合适的连接词让文章有条理,可以从引导学生了解现实等方面着手。在如何改变方面要提一些切合本地实际的建议。

阅读下列应用文及相关信息,并按照要求匹配信息。

首先请阅读下列人们在工作和生活中出现的一些身体不适症状:

A. How much sleep you need

Sleep cycles & stages, lack of sleep.

Getting the hours you need to sleep consist of a series of distinct cycles and stages that restore and refresh your body and mind.

Even minimal sleep loss takes a toll on your mood, energy, efficiency and ability to handle stress.

B. Panic attacks and panic disorder

A panic attack is a sudden surge of overwhelming anxiety and fear. Left untreated, panic attacks can lead to panic disorder and other problems. They may even cause you to withdraw from normal activities. But panic is treatable and the sooner you seek helps, the better.

C. How to stop worrying

Continuous doubts and fears are paralyzing, not motivating or productive. Worrying can be, when it spurs you to take action, helpful to solve a problem. You need self-help strategies for anxiety relief.

D. Generalizes anxiety disorder

Everyone gets worried sometimes, but if you have a generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), worries and fears are so constant that they interfere with your ability to function and relax..

E. What you need to know about anti-anxiety drugs

Under guidance from a health professional, medication can relieve some of the symptoms of anxiety, but it requires non-drug treatments to produce lasting changes and continuing relief from anxiety. Medication doesn’t cure the underlying problem and is usually not a long-term solution. Anxiety medications also come with side effects and safety concerns, including the risk of addiction..

F. Understanding stress

Modern life is full of hassles, deadlines, frustrations, and demands. For many people, stress is so commonplace that it has become a way of life. Stress isn’t always bad. In small doses, it can help you perform under pressure and motivate you to do your best. But when you’re constantly running in emergency mode, your mind and body pay the price.

以下是相关人物介绍, 请把人物与其要求对的身体不适症状匹配起来。

46.Jane seldom goes out. Her heart may pound violently and she may stop breathing. She may feel dizzy and sick to her stomach. She may even feel like she’s dying or going crazy. That may even cause her to withdraw from normal activities. With the help of her doctor, she can reduce or eliminate the symptoms of panic and regain control of her life.

47. Thomson is a middle-aged architect.  He used to be quick-minded and could come up with good ideas in group meetings. But recently, he finds it difficult to have a good design and he has much more hesitation before taking action, which worried him a lot. After lots of thinking, Thomson decides to try solving his problem himself first.

48. James is a 100% workaholic. As the boss of a small firm competing with other big companies, James feels that he’d better work 24/7 or he may never succeed, or even worse, fail. So he and his employers often work overtime. But lately, James finds himself not as efficient as before and even dozes off during the day. He is always tired and sleepy. Worse still, he is under a lot of stress.

49.Linda is a single working mum who is showing symptoms of anxiety. She is talking to her doctor and she is weighing the benefits of taking drugs against its drawbacks. Her doctor insists that other therapies and lifestyle changes may help her. So she must make a careful decision whether to take drugs or change her lifestyle.

50. Sandy is a journalist of a fashion magazine, who has to spend a lot of time looking for interesting news and stories every day. She has to present high-quality articles before deadlines and her boss, the chief editor, is quite demanding and harsh on her. She used to think that stress urged her to work more productively but now it seems more than she can take.

We all remember seeing hitchhikers, standing by the side of the road, thumb, sticking out, waiting for a lift. But it is getting rare nowadays. What killed hitchhiking? Safety is often mentioned as a reason. Movies about murderous hitchhikers and real-life crime have put many drivers off picking up hitchhikers. That no single women picked me up on my journey to Manchester no doubt reflects the safety fear: a large, strangely dressed man is seen as dangerous.

But the reason may be more complex: hitchhiking happens where people don’t have cars and transport services are poor. Plenty of people still hitchhike in Poland and Romania. Perhaps the rising level of car ownership in the UK means the few people lift hitchhiking are usually considered strange. Why can’t they afford cars? Why can’t they take the coach or the train?

Three-quarters of the UK population have access to a car; many of the remainder will be quite old. The potential hitchhiking population is therefore small. Yet my trip proves it’s still possible to hitchhike. The people who picked me up were very interesting-lawyer, retired surgeon, tank commander, carpenter, man who live in an isolated farmhouse and a couple living up in the mountains. My conclusion is that only really interesting people are mad enough to pick up fat blokes in red, spotted scarves. Most just wanted to do someone a good turn; a few said they were so surprised to see a hitchhiker that they couldn’t help stopping.

The future of hitchhiking most likely lies with car-sharing organized over the Internet, via sites such as hitchhikers.org. But for now, you can still stick your thumb out (actually, I didn’t do much of that, preferring just to hold up my destination sign) and people-wonderful, caring, sharing, unafraid people-will stop.

In the UK, with its cheap coaches and reasonable rail service, I don’t think I’ll make a habit of it. But having enjoyed it so much, I’m ready now to do a big trip across Europe and beyond. In the 1970s a female friend of my wife’s hitchhiked to India. How wonderful it would be to have another go, though Afghanistan might be a challenge. I wish I’d got that tank commander’s mobile number.

1.The author tried to hitchhike but was rejected by single women drivers because          .

A.they were not heading towards Manchester

B.they thought most hitchhikers were dangerous

C.hitchhiking had been handed and they didn’t want to break the law

D.he was a strong man in strange clothes who seemed dangerous

2.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?

A.Movies have discouraged people from hitchhiking

B.Car ownership levels are lower in Romania than in the UK.

C.25% of UK people don’t have access to cars.

D.Increased car ownership has reduced the need for hitchhiking.

3.The “fat blokes in red, spotted scarves” in Paragraph 3 most likely means    .

A.murderous hitchhikers

B.friendly and talkative hitchhikers

C.typical hitchhikers

D.strange hitchhikers like the author

4.According to the author, future hitchhikers are more likely to                .

A.visit websites and find people to share cars with

B.stand by roads with their thumbs sticking out

C.stick out signs with their destinations written on

D.wait for some kind people to pick them up

5.From the last paragraph, we know that the author         .

A.frequently hitchhikes in Britain

B.plans to hitchhike across Europe

C.thinks public transport is safer for travel

D.is going to contact the tank commander

A federal agency on Tuesday called for a ban on all cellphone use by drivers -- the most far-reaching recommendation up to now — saying its decision was based on a decade of investigations into distraction-related(与分散注意力有关的) accidents, as well as growing concerns that powerful mobile devices are giving drivers even more reasons to look away from the road.

As part of its recommendation, the National Transportation Safety Board is urging states to ban drivers from using hands-free devices, including wireless headsets. No state now has made laws to ban such activity, but the Board said that drivers faced serious risks from talking on wireless headsets, just as they do by taking a hand off the wheel to hold a phone to their ears.

However, the concern was heightened by increasingly powerful phones that people can use to send e-mails, watch movies and play games.

"Every year, new devices are being on sale." she said. "People are attracted to update their Facebook page, to play music with cellphone, as if sitting at a desk. But they are driving a car."

The agency based its recommendation on evidence from its investigation of numerous crashes in which electronic distraction was a major contributing factor.

Ms. Hersman said she understood that this recommendation would be unwelcome in some circles, given the number of drivers who talk and text. But she compared distracted driving to drunken driving and even smoking, which required wholesale cultural shifts to change behavior.

"It's going to be very unpopular with some people." she said. "We're not here to win a popularity contest. We're here to do the right thing. This is a difficult recommendation, but it's the right recommendation and it is time."

The agency's recommendation is not required for states to adopt such a ban. And it won't likely be agreed upon by state lawmakers who are unwillingly to anger those who have grown accustomed to using their device behind the wheel.

The ban also deserves attention because it is the first call by a federal agency to end the practice completely, rather than the partial ban that some lawmakers have put in place by allowing hands-free talking.

1.The ban on all cellphone use by drivers was put forward______.

A.after a long discussion and recommendation

B.after about ten years' investigation in it

C.because of the most powerful mobile devices

D.for the reason of heading away from the road

2.From the second paragraph we know that now______.

A.it is legal to use wireless headsets while driving

B.wireless headsets are illegal in some states

C.it is safe to talk on wireless headsets while driving

D.hands-free devices can be used in some states

3.We can know from the passage that______.

A.electronic distraction resulted in numerous crashes

B.numerous crashes were caused by drunk driving

C.electronic distraction contributed much to the ban

D.the recommendation was based on electronic distraction

4.Ms Hersman thinks that distracted driving, drunken driving and smoking______.

A.are just common behaviors

B.can be shifted to behaviors

C.are behaviors to be changed

D.are just cultural behaviors

5.Which of the following is the best title of the passage?

A.Cellphone Ban inCars

B.Valuable Ban for Cellphones

C.Drivers Ban Cellphones

D.Cellphone Ban while Driving

We now think of chocolate as sweet, but once it was bitter. We think of it as a candy, but once it was a medicine. Today, chocolate can be a hot drink, a frozen dessert, or just a snack. Sometimes it’s an ingredient(配料) in the main course of a meal. Mexicans make a hot chocolate sauce called mole and pour it over chicken. The Mexicans also eat chocolate with spices like chili peppers.

Chocolate is a product of the tropical cacao tree. The beans taste so bitter that even the monkeys say “Ugh!” and run away. Workers must first dry and then roast the beans. This removes the bitter taste.

The word “chocolate” comes from a Mayan word. The Mayas were an ancient people who once lived in Mexico. They valued the cacao tree. Some used the beans for money, while others crushed them to make a drink.

When the Spaniards came to Mexico in the sixteenth century, they started drinking cacao too. Because the drink was strong and bitter, they thought it was a medicine. No one had the idea of adding sugar. The Spaniards took some beans back to Europe and opened cafes. Wealthy people drank cacao and said it was good for the digestion.

In the 1800s, the owner of a chocolate factory in England discovered that sugar removed the bitter taste of cacao. It quickly became a cheap and popular drink. Soon afterwards, a factory made the first solid block of sweetened chocolate. Later on, another factory mixed milk and chocolate together. People liked the taste of milk chocolate even better.

Besides the chocolate candy bar, one of the most popular American snacks is the chocolate chip cookie. Favorite desserts are chocolate cream pie and, of course, an ice cream sundae with hot fudge sauce.

A.The workers in the chocolate factory
