1．I believe that my actions show my beliefs，not my words．
I wrote a letter to my kids a few years ago．It's three pages long，and it sums up my life experience of four decades．By the time they reach adulthood，they will have heard most of their father's advice in that letter：live in the moment，do not attach yourself to physical things，treat others the way you would like to be treated，etc．I sealed the letter in a white envelope，and wrote instructions that nobody should open it unless something horrible happened to me．
As a police officer，I have seen life disappear in an instant．I realize that could happen to me at any time．Yet knowing that letter is there in my locker makes me more comfortable with my own death．
Every day，when I open my locker，I see the letter．It makes me aware that I should be careful at work，and show my children and the people I have connection with that I try to practice everything I have written．If that day comes and my children finally read the letter，I hope that because of my actions，they will take my written beliefs to heart and improve upon my example．
But for me，it's not enough to write down my beliefs．I try to be the best person I can be every day---even in very difficult circumstances．I am more successful some days than others，but sometimes I curse too much．Sometimes I am cynical，unwilling to believe that people have good and honest reasons for doing something．I also get stressed and upset，yelling at my kids sometimes，and sometimes I am not as loving or as sympathetic as I should be．In fact，I am far from perfect，but I hope my children will eventually realize that perfection is an illusion．What really matters is that，instead of just writing down our beliefs，we all take action to be the best humans we can be．
（1）Which of the following can best describe the author？
A．Humorous．
B．Interesting．
C．Selfless．
D．Considerate．
（2）Why did the author open the locker to see the letter every day？
A．He wanted to confirm his beliefs．
B．The letter served as a reminder．
C．He kept adding something new to it．
D．His kids asked him to check it．
（3）Which can replace the underlined word "cynical" in the last paragraph？
A．Doubtful about others' motivations．
B．Curious about everything around．
C．Worried about his future life．
D．Unsatisfied about his profession．
（4）What is the author's understanding of life？
A．Parents should care for children．
B．To become a successful father．
C．To be better today than yesterday．
D．Bad guys deserve to be punished．组卷：8引用：2难度：0.5 -
2．Are visible tattoos an invitation to stare at a person？A blog post on LinkedIn titled "But You Asked Me to Stare At Your Tattoos" is causing debate after its author declared that if someone has a visible tattoo，they are inviting attention on themselves．
The magazine columnist Jeff Haden writes that while in a meeting recently，he met a man with a full sleeve tattoo．After looking at his body art for "a couple of seconds"，the man asked Haden， "Would it be easier if you just took a picture？" Haden goes on to write， "You have this huge，colorful，incredibly eye-catching tattoo．And you're wearing a shirt with unusually short sleeves．It's like you're paraphrasing Jack Nicholson in A Few Good Men：'You want me to see your tattoo．You need me to see your tattoo．'"
But not everyone who has a visible tattoo thinks about it when getting dressed in the morning，replied some commenters．For those with tattoos，they often become a part of the person． "For most people who have had their tattoos，it isn't something that you think about with any frequency．I don't even notice it as 'different'．It's just a part of you - like grey hair or a large nose．" Writes Kristen Stine． "People say to me 'What's that？'，pointing at my arm．I often get flustered expecting to see a bug when I look down．However，I just see my arm．"
Still others agree with Haden and say that visible tattoos have no place in the workplace． "If you don't want people to stare，wear a long sleeve shirt in this air-conditioned office．Clearly you want people to stare，" writes Mike Avelar．
Haden closes his piece with the following： "Make a statement with your apparel，your tattoos，your piercings or your actions．I think it's great．Just don't get mad when people look for a bit longer than usual…and occasionally even stare．That must be your intention．After all - you invited us to．"
（1）What is the text mainly about？
A．The introduction of a magazine．
B．A hot debate about tattoos．
C．The bad effects of tattoos．
D．The blog of Jeff Haden．
（2）Jeff Haden thinks that．
A．more discussion should be made about tattoos
B．people with tattoos hope to attract attention
C．people with tattoos shouldn't take pictures
D．it's improper for people to get tattoos
（3）According to Kristen Stine，．
A．people needn't worry about tattoos
B．people with tattoos should cover them
C．tattoos have become important for him
D．he didn't pay much attention to tattoos
（4）What is Mike Avelar's idea about tattoos？
A．Air-conditioned offices are fit for people with tattoos．
B．People shouldn't show tattoos in the workplace．
C．It's reasonable for people to have tattoos．
D．People with tattoos should be blamed．组卷：9引用：2难度：0.5

3．Whether you're going in for checkups or common tests in the hospital，here's how to get the most out of your next visit.
If you're going in for a regular doctor visit，you're probably going to have your blood pressure taken.So it's best to avoid coffee right before your appointment. （1）Using coffee or other caffeine such as energy drinks or colas within an hour of having your blood pressure measured can make the number artificially higher.（2）They also may cause untrue results.
You probably want to show the doctor your best health.（3）Before an annual appointment，your providers would like you to be honest and upfront about your lifestyle and diet so they can have an accurate history of your health and provide you with the best possible care.You may think improving an unhealthy diet close to your appointment date is necessary.（4）It takes a long time for diet to change cholesterol and blood sugar，so a dietary change of a few days or meals isn't going to do much.Changes occur over the long term，so it's best to eat healthy as much as you can.
No matter what kind of appointment you have，you may be a bit nervous-after all，being examined by a doctor can make us feel vulnerable and even embarrassed.But if you write down the things you want to talk about before you go（or even make a note on your phone），you're less likely to forget or lose you nerve.It's helpful if you come in with your list of questions.（5）
A.You may get too nervous to ask.
B.The same goes for tobacco products.
C.It might affect the results.
D.But probably that wouldn't matter.
E.Your doctor wants you to feel better.
F.It's not necessary to change your eating habits.
G.Don't be afraid to write down.组卷：1引用：2难度：0.5

Pahnuly has autism （自闭症）.People with autism often have trouble talking with others.They might repeat things over and over，or be interested in only one subject.But it was Pahnuly that inspired Kusa to think differently.One day，they played ping-pong with their parents at home in Brooklyn Park.But Pahnuly struggled with it.So Kusa wanted to find a way to make it more suited to his sister's needs.He came up with a new game based on ping-pong.It is called Aeropong because the ball seems to float in the air.In Aeropong，a ping-pong ball hangs from a frame.The players hit the ball back and forth.It's kind of like tennis，but no one has to chase the ball.
At first，Pahnuly didn't show much interest.But soon，Kusa heard a sound coming from the front room.Clack（啪嗒声）.Clack.Clack.Pahnuly had picked up a paddle （乒乓球拍） and was tapping the ball.Then，she started hitting it back and forth with Kusa and their dad.Eventually，the family took a trip to Menards to buy some PVC pipes and fashioned a portable frame for the ball to hang from.They also designed rules and ways to score points.
Word spread at school about Kusa's game.His teacher，Stasica，asked him to tell his class about Aeropong."Kusa was usually shy，but when he talked about his game，his face lit up with excitement，"Stasica said.Kusa told his classmates the game was meant to make people smile，especially his big sister."When she scores，" he said，"she dances."
