Dear SJ,

Losing a best friend is never easy.

Your problem, is not just that you miss your best friend, it is that you feel empty and lost without her friendship.

It takes time to get over a lost, and during that time, your mind is getting used to a new way of being. This is usually a good thing, even if it feels like a bad thing.

Now that you are on your own, you are being forced to learn to be by yourself and to rely upon your own inner voice for guidance. I am sure that this feels strange for you, but if you can hang on for a bit longer, it may work to your advantage.

Best friends are cool, but it is important to know the difference between missing someone and being too independent upon them.

At your age, girls do tend to stick together and having a good boyfriend may not yet be the better choice. Your friend is leaving you, her best friend, for a boyfriend. Boyfriends are completely different from best friends. The distinction is that boyfriends come and go, while girl friends often stay in your life throughout high school, and even afterwards. It is a completely different sort of bond.

I suggest that you take advantage of this period in your life to expand your horizons. Enjoy the freedom of having no best friend for a while, and hang with the group. By the time your former best friend breaks up with her boyfriend, you will be in a completely different place, a far better place.

And, by the way, next time you feel empty and lost, try to write about it in a diary. In several months, you will look back and read it with curiosity about yourself. “Who was I then, and what could I have been thinking?”

1.Judging from the letter, SJ’s problem was that she didn’t know _______ .

A．whether to give up her best friend

B．what to do without her best friend

C．whom to choose between two friends

D．how to stop missing her former friend

2.The underlined part “a new way of being” (in Paragraph 3) refers to the situation in which SJ has to _______.

A．find a new friendship B．live without her boyfriend

C．learn to give up D．learn to be independent

3.The writer believes by the time SJ’s former friend loses her boyfriend, SJ will _______.

A．take revenge on her former friend

B．comfort her former friend

C．feel more independent and confident

D．continue friendship with her former friend

4.What does the last paragraph seem to suggest?

A．Unhappy experiences are easy to forget.

B．Keeping a diary helps correct oneself.

C．SJ will get over her problem soon.

D．One shouldn’t forget the past experiences.

科目：高中英語 來源：2016屆黑龍江牡丹江第一中學高三上期末模擬英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

When you're surfing the Internet on your laptop from your dorm or home, do you know your personal details are being gathered secretly? And would you be surprised to know the information may be sold cheaply to advertisers and marketers?

According to an investigation by The Wall Street Journal, all it takes is a tiny file in a computer－a single code consisting of a long series of numbers and letters－to record the computer user's age, gender, location, favorite movies and hobbies.

The newspaper reports that Lotame Solutions Inc., a New York company, uses an advanced software called “beacon” to capture what people are typing on a website.

Lotame packages that data into profiles (個人資料) about individuals, only without their names, and sells the profiles to companies seeking customers. Batches of such data may be sold for a few dollars.

The Wall Street Journal survey discovered that spying on Internet users is one of the fastest?growing businesses on the World Wide Web.

The “cookie”－a tiny text file put on your PC by websites or marketing firms which might be used to remember your preferences for one site, or to track you across many sites is already old news. There are new and more complex tools such as “beacon” which scan in real time what people are doing on a webpage. These beacons instantly assess the Internet user's location, income, shopping interests and even medical conditions.

Millions of Internet users around the world also face unprecedented (空前的) threats. Private, sensitive, personal and business information is being gathered and sold without their knowledge.

Companies insist the information they gather is anonymous(匿名的) and the data is used harmlessly. But the technology has grown so powerful that even some of the biggest websites in the US don't know that they were installing intrusive files on visitors' computers. These include MSN.com and Yahoo.com.

Next time you visit a webpage and find an ad banner advertising something you've been planning to buy, don't be amazed that your computer can read your mind.

1.The purpose of the passage is to ______.

A. introduce a tiny file in a computer－a single code

B. show how your individual information was let out when you surf the Internet

C. show how to protect your privacy

D. introduce a sophisticated software called “beacon”

2.All of the following statements are not true EXCEPT ______.

A. Lotame sells the profiles about individuals to companies seeking customers with their age, gender, location, hobbies and names

B. spying on Internet users is the fastest?growing business on the World Wide Web

C. some of the biggest websites in the US know they were installing intrusive files on visitors' computers

D. a tiny file in a computer－a single code consisting of a long series of numbers and letters can record the user's information

3.What’s the writer’s attitude to the issue?

A. neutral B. optimistic C. worried D. indifferent

科目：高中英語 來源：2016屆寧夏銀川市高三上學期統(tǒng)練五英語試卷（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

Every year in America, high-school students who want to go to college take a national examination called the Scholastic Aptitude Test, or SAT in a shortened way. Their score is an important factor in determining which colleges will admit them. The Scholastic Aptitude Test measures one’s mathematical ability and use of the English language. Traditionally, the English part involved grammatical questions and paragraphs that test reading comprehension.

But the SAT folks have added a single question, to be answered in an essay, handwritten on the spot. That’s an interesting way to test writing ability, but content aside, have you ever seen young people’s handwriting lately? Or anyone’s for that matter, in this age of computer keyboards? Students write numbers and sign their names on bank checks. They scribble class notes in what can generously be described as the written word.

Yet today’s kids are asked to write, thoughtfully and clearly, for several minutes on this SAT Test. Good luck to the text scorers who must work out difficultly the scrawl (潦草的筆跡)of young people who’ve been typing on computers since the age of three! Teachers insist that good handwriting can not only help one’s score on the SAT, but also, later on in life, impress potential employers. And don’t forget, we all have to turn to handwriting from time to time, as computers go down when power goes out.

Then how to improve the handwriting? Well, with a few simple steps you can improve your handwriting.

Position the pen. You should hold the pen between the forefinger and the thumb. You should then rest it near the first knuckle（指節(jié)）of the middle finger. The rest of your fingers should be curled （卷曲) under your hand and your hand should remain relaxed.

Evaluate your handwriting. What do you like and what you don’t like about the way you write? Make changes to your letters till you like how they look.

Take your time. Make sure that, while you are writing, you take your time. Speed is bound to make your writing messy- looking. If it is worth writing well, then take your time.

Practice. Practice it a lot; it’s not enough to do it once and hope for the best. It has to be something you work at to make great improvements.

1.The SAT tests students on __________.

A. math, English, reading and handwriting

B. math, grammar, reading and handwriting

C. math, foreign language and writing

D. math, foreign language and handwriting

2.Which of the following should you avoid when improving your handwriting?

A. Practice writing a lot.

B. Writing as fast as you can.

C. Relaxing your hand when holding the pen.

D. Changing your letters till you like how they look.

3.The text is to present the fact that __________.

A. writing seems to be very important in the SAT

B. those who will go to college have to take the SAT

C. students should practice handwriting more often

D. kids don’t know how to write in the computer age
