According to a new list made by AFP, the worlds 10 most powerful (power) women who made their way above the “glass ceiling”， include the American first female presidential nominee (候选人) Hillary Clinton and Director General of the World Health Organization, Margaret Chan.There is something interesting with the AFP list: A majority of the 10 women are over 60, the age when some women become grandmothers. In fact, this might be the best proof of how aging a factor that has always been considered as a(n) disadvantage (advantage) has begun to turn into a strong point, for women.The reasons behind_the_phenomenon (现象背后) may include that todays older women are better educated (educate) and more experienced than any generations (generation) before.It is also because of societys changing opinion about what women can achieve (achievement) after raising_kids_and_running_family_lives (养育子女和经营家庭生活) for years, older women are now more likely to start again instead of retiring into a peaceful_ (peace) life of cooking and gardening.In fact, this changing atmosphere in gender equality (equal) is spreading all over the world and across women of all ages.片段选词填空tendency， accessible， social， ensure， provide， play a key role in， meet and make friend， in the real world， social skill， influence our health and wellbeingBars are very important in providing a place where people can meet_and_make_friends. People who enjoy a drink in a local bar are happier and have more friends. They are more likely to be engaged in conversations in small community pubs, and social_skills are improved after a drink.Professor Robin Dunbar of Oxford University said，“Friendship and communities are probably the two most important factors influencing_our_health_and_wellbeing. Making and maintaining friendships is something that has to be done in_the_real_world. The digital world is simply no substitute. Given the increasing tendency for our social life to be on the Internet rather than in real life, having relaxed, accessible places where people can meet old friends and make new ones becomes even more necessary.”Tim Page, chief executive of CAMRA, said, “Bars offer a social environment to enjoy a drink with friends in a responsible community setting. The role of community bars in ensuring wellbeing cannot be overstated. For that reason, we all need to do what we can to ensure that everyone has a local near to where they live or work.”Bars have long been part of British society and have played_a_key_role_in British social life since the 16th century. Bars came to represent the heart and soul of a community, providing both a place of entertainment and an engine for community bonding. In a world before the arrival of the motor car, the bar provided a venue in which people could get friendships and a sense of community.一、复现单元考点增强备考信心.高考中的语法填空 1(2018北京高考)Susan had quit her wellpaid job and was working as a volunteer (voluntary) in the neighborhood when I visited her last year.2(2016浙江高考)Had the governments (govern) and scientists not worked together, AIDSrelated deaths would not have fallen since their highest in 2005.3(2015福建高考)To learn more about Chinese culture, Jack has decided to take Chinese folk music as an elective (elect) course.4(2014重庆高考)Group activities will be organized after class to help children develop team spirit (spiritual)5(2014天津高考)English is a language shared by several_diverse (diversity) cultures, each of which uses it differently.6(2014安徽高考)Its our hope that we will play a greater role in the market place and, therefore, supply more jobs.高考中的完形填空(选用contribute, adjust, volunteer, resist, consequence, burden, show off, above all填空)1(2015重庆高考)For example, the moment you get on the airplane, start _32_ your biological clock to the destinations time. _2(2015安徽高考)Our appetite for new products also _46_to the problem.

It finds that millennials have redefined the ties that connect parents and children. Millennials see their parents as peers (同龄人), friends and instructors. Nearly three quarters talked with their parents more than once a week during college.In return, their parents happily provide financial support well into adulthood, helping fund everything for them.Stuart Hoffman, chief economist for the PNC Financial Group in the US, said the number of young adults striking out on their own fell during the Great Recession.Although job growth for millennials since 2014 has improved, that doesnt necessarily mean that millennials are starting to fly the nest.He said, “They may like living at home and being able to save money.”“Theres no doubt it has held back household formation and purchases of things people spend money on related to household formation and perhaps related to childraising，” Hoffman explained.“But they are probably traveling more and eating out more if they dont have a house expense or marriage.I dont know if it represents a change in moral values.But its much more common for adult children to live in their parents homes because its becoming part of the culture.”语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。在西方的传统观念中，成年即意味着要离开父母，独立生活。然而现在，越来越多的西方年轻人更倾向于与父母同住。5What can be learned about Caitlin Hipp?AShe is in her thirties.BShe is ambitious for her career.CShe can barely make ends meet.DShe prefers living with her parents.解析：选C推理判断题。根据第一段中的“But through working as a parttime skating instructor and restaurant server, she isnt able to earn enough to live anywhere other than home”可知，如果不住在家里，通过作兼职滑冰教练和餐馆服务员，Hipp是不能赚取足够的钱来独立生活的，即她很难维持生计。故选C。6Whats the reason for young adults living at home according to UBS Financial Services?AThe lack of job opportunity.BTheir parents need for them.CThe high pressure from modern life.DTheir parents overprotection of them.解析：选B细节理解题。根据第三段中的“one reason for the growing number of young adults still living at home could be that their family doesnt want them to leave”可知，据瑞银金融服务公司发布的报告显示，越来越多的年轻人住在家里的一个原因是他们的父母不想让他们离开，即他们的父母需要他们。故选B。7What does Hoffman think of young adults living at home?AIt will never go out of fashion.BIt may allow of more travel chances.CIt results from the change in moral values.DIt goes against Americas cultural development.解析：选B细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“But they are probably traveling more and eating out more if they dont have a house expense or marriage”可知，在Hoffman看来，年轻人住在家里可能会使他们拥有更多的旅游机会。故选B。8What is the authors purpose of writing this passage?ATo introduce different types of living arrangements.BTo stress the importance of financial independence.CTo inform people of a social phenomenon in the US.DTo explain why American young adults still live at home.解析：选C写作意图题。纵观全文可知，本文主要介绍了在美国，越来越多的年轻人倾向于与父母同住的这样一种社会现象，故C项最能概括作者写作本文的目的。.完形填空(2019贵阳监测)There was a little, but always strange girl.
