 阅读理解(2018·合肥高三质检)Cycling is well known to improve individual health and fitness; it also benefits the wider population in terms of economy, transport and environment. The EU promotes cycling via many measures primarily to achieve sustainable(可持续的) clean and energy­efficient transport systems. However, despite the fact that the benefits outweigh the risks by 20∶1, many consider the risks too great and that the fear of danger on the road needs to be handled. Cycle lanes(车道) have been used to improve cyclists’ safety and encourage more cyclists onto the road. This research in transport aims to study the effect of cycle lanes on cyclists’ safety where passing space given by overtaking(超车) vehicles is concerned.In this study, the authors used a bicycle equipped with cameras to record vehicle overtaking in varying road situations to determine whether cycle lanes, color block cycle lanes or no cycle lanes affect passing distances and cyclists’ safety. Their 3 comparisons measuring vehicle passing widths found greater overall distances given with a cycle lane than without. Color block vs. uncolored cycle lanes showed little or no difference, as did no cycle lanes vs. color block cycle lanes. Color block lanes had a slight negative effect suggesting that drivers are more careful when cycle lanes have less definition(清晰度)．Interestingly, the authors conclude that other factors have a far greater effect on cyclists’safety than presence or absence of cycle lanes. Road width, parking, opposite vehicle flow and speed were key influences on decreased passing widths. The authors also note that driver behaviour is a hugely important factor and urge more research in this area. “In order to reduce risks and encourage more cycling, reducing and calming the existing motorised traffic must be explored first.” They suggest, “Lane width is the most significant variable(变量) to achieve a sufficient vehicle passing distance. The narrow cycle lanes (<2m) may be not enough. Reconsideration of the entire road design and further exploration of driver behavioural factors are required.”【解题导语】　本文主要讲述了为了实现可持续的清洁和节能的交通系统，欧盟大力推广使用自行车，并指出在自行车的推广过程中要解决安全的问题。1．What is the main purpose of the EU’s promoting cycling?A．To reduce air pollution.B．To build better transport systems.C．To improve people’s health.D．To help people save money on transport.B　解析：细节理解题。根据第一段第二句可知，欧盟通过多种途径推广使用自行车主要是为了建立可持续的清洁和节能的交通系统，故B项正确。2．According to the study, color block lanes may________．A．make drivers a bit carelessB．cause no overtakingC．get cyclists to feel saferD．lead to greater passing distancesA　解析：推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句可知，彩色车道有轻微的负面效应，当自行车车道清晰度较低时驾驶员要更小心。据此可以判断，彩色车道会使驾驶员变得粗心，故A项正确。3．In the researchers’ eyes, the first step to encourage more cycling is to________．A．redesign and rebuild the roads in a cityB．do more research in public bicycle programsC．restrict the number of vehicles running on the roadD．make strict traffic rules to control driver behaviourC　解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的“In order to reduce risks and encourage more cycling, reducing and calming the existing motorised traffic must be explored first.”可知，为了降低风险，鼓励更多地使用自行车，首先要减少现有的机动车辆，即控制路上的机动车的数量，故C项正确。4．The authors of the research think that driver behaviour________．A．needs further explorationB．is an unimportant factorC．makes cycle lanes narrowerD．is the most significant variableA　解析：细节理解题。根据第三段的“Reconsideration of the entire road design and further exploration of driver behavioural factors are required.”可知，需要对驾驶员的行为因素做进一步探索，故A项正确。 七选五(2018·山西八校联考)Self­confident people face their fears head­on and they know that no matter what obstacles come their way，they have the ability to get past them.Wouldn’t it be amazing to have this kind of self­confidence？Guess what？You can.1.________Stay away from negativity.2．________ This is a tough one，but it’s time to seriously consider getting away from those individuals who put you down and shred your confidence.Even a temporary break from Debbie Downer can make a huge difference and help you move toward more self­confidence.Be positive.Put some positive enthusiasm into your interactions with others and hit the ground running，excited to begin your next project. 3.________ Instead，begin to focus on solutions and making positive changes.Don’t accept failure.Never give up.Never accept failure and get rid of the negative voices in your head.There is a solution to everything.4.________ Make this your new mantra(真言)．Succeeding in a difficult or unpleasant situation is a huge confidence booster(激励)．5．________Learn everything there is to know about your field，job，presentation—whatever is next on your“to conquer”list.If you are prepared，and have the knowledge to back it up，your self­confidence will rise very quickly.A．Be prepared.B．Create a great list.C．Get out of your comfort zone.D．Stop focusing on the problems in your life.E．Therefore，why would you want to stop trying?F．Here’s how you can learn to be confident of all you do.G．Evaluate your inner circle，including friends and family.【解题导语】　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了提高自信的一些方法。1．F　解析：根据空前的“Wouldn’t it be amazing to have this kind of self­confidence？Guess what？You can.”及下文罗列的内容可知，此处需填一个承上启下的句子，故F项“这是你可以学会对你所做的所有事情感到自信的方法。”符合语境。2. G　解析：根据小标题“Stay away from negativity.”以及G项中的“friends and family”与空后句子中的“those individuals”的对应关系可知，G项符合语境。3．D　解析：根据小标题“Be positive.”及空后的“Instead，begin to focus on solutions and making positive changes.”可知，空处所填内容与其后面的内容之间存在转折关系，故D项“不要再关注你生活中的问题。”符合语境。4．E　解析：根据空前的“Never give up.Never accept failure and get rid of the negative voices in your head.There is a solution to everything.”可知，空处所填内容与上文存在因果关系，故E项“因此，你为什么想要放弃努力呢？”符合语境。5．A　解析：根据最后一段中的内容尤其是“If you are prepared，and have the knowledge to back it up...”可知，本段介绍的提高自信的方法是要做好准备，故A项符合语境。 语法填空Helping a person forget something is rarely easy, especially if the “something” is hurtful or negative.

Too much cars travel on the roads. This heavy traffic causes delays and the plenty of air pollution. Besides Jinan, many cities in China have traffic problems and Beijing is the worse one. One of the reason why there is so much traffic is because only a small number of people use public transportation.In my opinion, one way to solve the traffic problems was to encourage people to make use public transportation systems. For example, people can take buses instead of drive cars. Meanwhile, the government should take measures to make them more reliable and convenient to travel by bus.答案：Jinan is facing  traffic problems. Too  cars travel on the roads.
