This message is to in ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )form all the children that Santa's post office in Himmelpfort, Germany, is open to receive your holiday wishes. That means you can mail your letters to Santa about 6 weeks sooner than that last year, Santa knows you've been good and wants to make sure he and his helpers receive your wish list earlier.
Eight post offices ar ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e organized across Germany to answer all the letters children send. This year they plan to receive over 250,000 letters. Though the letters fly from over 80 different countries, Santa and his helpers can understand and make sure to answer all the letters.
In 1984, two ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )children from Berlin sent their wish lists to Himmelpfort after spending their vacation there. Their letters were answered by postal employees and later Himmelpfort increased its helpers to meet the needs of increased mail traffic. Year after year, Santa and his crew use an eco-friendly powered vehicle to collect the thousands of letters they receive from young boys and girls. The great news for this year is that if you come to the beautiful town of Himmelpfort, you can drop off your letter and visit Santa in person from Tuesdays to Thursdays until Christmas Eve.21·世纪*教育网
Santa does not curr ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ently have an e-mail, Twitter or a Facebook account. He believes in old-fashioned communication. So get out your paper and write your wish list. Just make sure your letter is clear so you can receive an official response. Send your letters to,

【2014高考英语广东省中山市华侨中学一模试题】
We’ve reached a str ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ange--some would say unusual--point. While fighting world hunger continues to be the matter of vital importance according to a recent report from the World Health Organization (WHO), more people now die from being overweight, or say, from being extremely fat, than from being underweight. It’s the good life that’s more likely to kill us these days.
Worse, nearly l8 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )million children under the age of five around the world are estimated to be overweight. What’s going on www.21-cn-jy.com
We really don’t have ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) many excuses for our weight problems. The dangers of the problem have been drilled into us by public-health campaigns since 2001 and the message is getting through--up to a point.【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
In the 1970s, Finl ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )and, for example, had the highest rate of heart disease in the world and being overweight was its main cause. Not any more. A public-health campaign has greatly reduced the number of heart disease deaths by 80 per cent over the past three decades.　　21*cnjy*com
Maybe that explains ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) why the percentage of people in Finland taking diet pills doubled between 2001 and 2005, and doctors even offer surgery of removing fat inside and change the shape of the body. That has become a sort of fashion. No wonder it ranks as the world’s most body-conscious country.
We know what we ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) should be doing to lose weight--but actually doing it is another matter. By far the most popular excuse is not taking enough exercise. More than half of us admit we lack willpower.
Others blame good f ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ood. They say: it’s just too inviting and it makes them overeat. Still others lay the blame on the Americans, complaining that pounds have piled on thanks to eating too much American-style fast food.
Some also blame their ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) parents--their genes. But unfortunately, the parents are wronged because they’re normal in shape, or rather slim.
It’s a similar ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) story around the world, although people are relatively unlikely to have tried to lose weight. Parents are eager to see their kids shape up. Do as I say--not as I do.
36. What is the “strange” point mentioned in the first sentence
A. The good life is a greater risk than the bad life.
B. Starvation is taking more people’s lives in the world.
C. WHO report shows people’s unawareness of food safety.
D. Overweight issue remains unresolved despite WHO’s efforts.
37. Why does the au ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )thor think that people have no excuse for being overweight
A. A lot of effective diet pills are available.
B. Body image has nothing to do with good food.
C. They have been made fully aware of its dangers.
D. There are too many overweight people in the world.
38. The example of Finland is used to illustrate ________.
A. the cause of heart disease
B. the effectiveness of a campaign
C. the fashion of body shaping
D. the history of a body-conscious country
39. According to the last paragraph, parents ________.
A. always set a good example to their children
B. are hardly as overweight as their children
C. hope to be as healthy as their own children
D. rarely take action to lose weight themselves
40. Which would be the best title for the passage
A. Actions or Excuses B. Overweight or Underweight
C. WHO in a Dilemma D. No Longer Dying of Hunger

【2014高考英语安徽省联考模拟试题】 B
It's not about ho ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )w much money you make, and it's not about who your daddy is. And no, it's definitely not about whether you look like Tom Cruise or his wife Katie Holmes ... What it is about is these simple things, things that maybe even a person like Tom Cruise does not have.
We're talking about ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )being attractive in general, whether it's on a job interview or just gaining the respect of your colleagues.
Ask lots of questions
In other words, be hum ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ble. If you come across as a know-it-all (even if you really do know it all!)， it really pushes people away. Rather, asking lots and lots of questions (even dumb ones) makes people feel like you care, you can be trusted, and you are... humble.
Stay busy
Do you really know ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) the power of this We're told to stay busy to prevent depression and feelings of anxiety. But did you know you should also stay busy to be really attractive It's true. Always have something to do. Have you ever seen someone just sitting around, doing nothing How unattractive. Always be busy with something, even if for some reason you have to make something up.
Show your pearly whites (or just smile)
Smile more, no matt ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )er how ugly your teeth are. I'm not kidding about this one. It's not all about the teeth. If you are smiling genuinely, you can draw everyone for 100 meters around to you.21世纪教育网版权所有
Be interested in other men
Be interested in the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) other person. Again, ask them questions. Don't talk about yourself... remove attention from yourself. If you are truly interested in the person, it will come across. And if you want to talk about yourself, you'll find that putting the other person first actually opens him up to return the favor and ask you questions. See how fun this is 21教育网
So, yes it is pos ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )sible to be the most attractive person in the world. If you've noticed the ring throughout the article, it has a lot to do with just being confident in who you are. Nobody needs to look like Tom Cruise or Will Smith or their wives, or anyone else for that matter. Every person, of every race, of every nationality, of every background, can be the most attractive person in the world.
60. In the writer’ ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )s opinion, attractiveness is determined by a person’s ________.
A. good looks B. white teeth C. confidence D. race
61. The underlined sentence means that __________.21·cn·jy·com
A. if you are a know-it-all, you are surely welcome
B. being a know-it-all may keep people away from you
C. a person should ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )pretend to be a know-it-all when communicating with others
D. people admire a person who know it all
62. In order t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )o be attractive, you should do followings EXCEPT ________.
A. Behave lik ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e Tom Cruise B. ask questions C. smile D. keep busy
63. The main idea of the article is to tell us _________.【版权所有：21教育】

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
One of our biggest fe ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ars nowadays is that our kids might some day get lost in a “sea of technology” rather than experiencing the natural world. TV and computer games are leading to a serious disconnect between kids and the great outdoors, which will change the wild places of the world, its creatures and human health for the worse, unless adults get working on child's play.
Each of us has a pl ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )ace in nature we go sometimes, even if it was torn down. We cannot be the last generation to have that place. At this rate, kids who miss the sense of wondering outdoors will not grow up to be protectors of natural landscapes. “If the decline in parks use continues across North America, who will defend parks against encroachment (蚕食) ” asks Richard Louv, author of Last Child in the Woods.
Without having a ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )nature experience, kids, can turn out just fine, but they are missing out a huge enrichment of their lives. That applies to everything from their physical health and mental health, to stress levels, creativity and cognitive (认知的) skills. Experts predict modern kids will have poorer health than their parents—and they say a lack of outside play is surely part of it. Research suggests that kids do better academically in schools with a nature component and that playing in nature fosters (培养) leadership by the smartest, not by the toughest. Even a tiny outdoor experience can create wonder in a child. The three-year-old turning over his first rock realizes he is not alone in the world. A clump of trees on the roadside can be the whole universe in his eyes. We really need to value that more.
Kids are not to ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )blame. They are over protected and frightened. It is dangerous out there from time to time, but repetitive stress from computers is replacing breaking an arm as a childhood rite of passage (仪式).
Everyone, from deve ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )lopers to schools and outdoorsy citizens, should help regain for our kids some of the freedom and joy of exploring, taking friendship in fields and woods that cement (增强) love, respect and need for landscape. As parents, we should devote some of our energies to taking our kids into nature. This could yet be our greatest cause.
41. The main idea of Paragraph 2 is that ________.
A. kids missing the sense of wondering outdoors
B. parks are in danger of being gradually encroached
C. Richard Louv is the author of Last Child in the Woods
D. children are expected to develop into protectors of nature
【答案】D
【解析】细节理解题。根据由于科学技 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )术的进步有些孩子在家玩电脑看电视很少出去接近大自然，不知道要保护大自然，所以本段的大意是孩子被盼望发展成大自然的保护着，故选D。
42. According to t ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )he passage, children without experiencing nature will ________.
A. keep a high sense of wonder
B. be over protected by their parents
C. be less healthy both physically and mentally
D. change wild places and creatures for the better
【答案】C

阅读下列短文, 从每题所 ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中, 选出最佳选项, 并标在答题卷的相应位置。用答题卡的考生, 先把选出的最佳选项标在试卷的相应位置, 再转涂到答题卡上。
For the first tim ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )e, researchers have discovered that some plants can kill insects in order to get additional nutrients. New research shows that they catch and kill small insects with their own sticky hairs near the roots and then absorb nutrients through their roots when the insects are killed and fall to the ground.
Professor Mark C ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )hase, of Kew and Queen Mary, University of London, said, "The cultivated (改良的) tomatoes and potatoes still have the hairs. Tomatoes in particular are covered with these sticky hairs. They do trap small insects on a regular basis. They do kill insects."
The number of the ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )se carnivorous plants is thought to have came up to 50 percent and many of them have until now been wrongly regarded as among the most harmless plants. Among them are species of petunia (矮牵牛), some special tobacco plants and cabbages, some varieties of potatoes and tomatoes, etc. Researchers at Royal Botanical Gardens Kew, which carried out the study, now believe there are hundreds more killer plants than previously realized.
It is thought ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) that the technique was developed in the wild to get necessary nutrients in poor quality soil — and even various plants grown in your vegetable garden still have the ability.
The researchers ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ), publishing their finding in the Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, said, “We may be surrounded by many more murderous plants than we think.” “We are accustomed to thinking of plants as being immobile and harmless, and there is something deeply frightening about the thought of meat-eating plants,” they added.
72. Tomatoes and potatoes kill insects to ______ .
A. get more sticky hairs B. make themselves grow better
C. make their roots stronger D. avoid falling down to the ground
73. The word carnivorous in Paragraph 3 most probably means ______.
A. fast-growing B. harmless C. insect-killing D. nutritious
74. The technique for ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com )vegetables to trap insects is most probably developed through
A. evolution of species B. helps from other garden plants
C. artificial cultivation D. nutrients preserved in rich soil
75. The text is probably taken from ______.
A. a student book ( http: / / www.21cnjy.com ) B. a science fiction C. a scientific report D. a bulletin board
