As_a_Senior_Three_student，I_often_imagine_what_I_will_be_doing_in_the_future.Talking of my dream job，I expect to be an English teacher for the following reasons.
First，I'm an energetic outgoing girl/boy with great patience.That's what makes a qualified teacher, in my opinion. Besides, I am crazy about the English language, and I am doing quite well. Above all，teachers are generally respected and well­paid. With two vacations each year，I may enjoy more relaxing time.As a responsible girl/boy，I hope to take up a job which is beneficial to society. Being a good teacher may influence more students to shoulder their responsibilities and contribute to their country.
In short，I'll work even harder to become a popular English teacher.

[阅读理解组块练]
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(湖南省2018届高三三十四校联考第二次考试)Dodder is an unusual and unwanted plant that attacks other plants.Except for its flowers, the plant looks like spaghetti, a kind of noodles in the shape of long thin pieces that look like string when they are cooked.Its almost leafless, thread­like stems (茎) hang down on top of other plants that dodder needs to stay alive.Dodder does not produce its own food.Instead, it steals food from other plants.It feeds by sucking juices from the plant which is wrapped around, often making its host very weak or even killing it.
Dodder can find other plants by their smell.When a young dodder plant starts growing, it follows the smell of plants it prefers, like tomato plants, potato plants, or other farm crops.Unlike most plants that usually grow in the direction of light or warmth, a dodder plant will grow in the direction of, for example, tomato smell—if a tomato happens to be growing nearby.
However, a young dodder plant must find a host plant quickly.It no longer needs its root once it is attached to the host and wrapped around it.If it cannot catch a smell of a potential host within a few days, it will dry up and disappear－even if there is plenty of water around.Once it finds a host, the young dodder plant will attach itself to it and start growing faster.At that point the dodder plant will drop its root.
Dodder is thus a difficult weed to manage and a real headache for farmers.When it does get out of hand, dodder can greatly reduce a farmer's harvest or even destroy crops completely.Before sowing their produce, especially farmers in warm parts of the world often check to make sure no unwanted dodder seeds have mixed with their crop seeds.This is a good way to stop dodder plants from making their way to a crop field secretly.
1．Why does the author mention spaghetti in the first paragraph?
A．To analyze the content of some food.
B．To describe the shape of dodder plants.
C．To explain where the dodder plants come from.
D．To argue that dodder plants can be used.
2．What will happen if a dodder plant starts growing where there are no other plants around?
A．It will die sooner or later.
B．It will grow deep roots.
C．It will attract other plants.
D．It will cover the entire area of soil.
3．What can be inferred from the passage?
A．Dodder does not produce its own food.
B．Dodder can affect farmers' income.
C．Dodder can only survive in the shade.
D．Dodder only grows in the warm areas.
4．What is the main topic of the passage?
A．A new variety of farm crops.
B．Plants that are harmful to humans.
C．The special abilities of a dangerous plant.
D．Recent improvements in farming methods.

(湖南省长沙市雅礼中学、河南省实验中学2018届高三联考)A Song of Ice and Fire is a seven­part series of fantasy written for adults.George R．R.Martin writes each chapter from the perspective of a specific character, providing a limited point of view for each section.The reader is able to understand the inner workings of the individual, but the reader is barred from a whole understanding of the text.The world he has created has magic, but there is much more than that.While magic exists, it exists on the edge, and the inner unrest of the characters is much more important.
His work also has a level of realness that is astonishing in a work of fantasy.Characters are imperfect, and many make questionable moral choices.In the end, however, Martin shows that both good and bad happen to both the people of high moral standard and the corrupt.He has made it clear that any character can die at any point, which has led to a lot of heartbreak from readers.

Fatu Kekula is a hero.The 22­year­old Liberian nursing student，in her final year，managed to save the members of her family from the Ebola virus，all without the help and convenience of a hospital.
Kekula reduced the rate to 25 percent.Four of her family members were infected with the virus.Her father，Moses，her mother，Victoria，her sister，Vivian and her 14­year­old cousin，Alfred Winnie.Sadly，Kekula's cousin succumbed_to the virus.It's also impressive to note that while Kekula was treating her family members she managed to avoid Ebola entirely.
On July 27，Kekula's father，Moses，went to a hospital in Kakata，after his blood pressure rose sharply.The only reason the hospital had a bed to offer him was because someone had just died.But the staff in the hospital didn't realize the patient died from an Ebola infection.Shortly，after he was admitted to the hospital，Moses developed a fever，started vomiting and was suffering from diarrhea(腹泻)．Once nurses started dying of Ebola，the hospital shut down and Moses had to leave.Kekula drove 90 minutes to Monrovia，the capital of Liberia，to seek treatment.Three hospitals turned them away because there was no spare bed for patients at all.
Kekula made the drive back to Kanata to another hospital.They told Moses he had typhoid(伤寒) fever and did very little to treat him.So Kekula took him home.Once he was there，he infected three other family members.Her mother，sister and their cousin who was living with them.
Kekula only lost one patient，her cousin.Her method proved so effective that international aid workers，including UNICEF，began teaching it to others in West Africa who may not be able to get to hospitals for treatment.
Her father，mother and sister were already recovering when space became available at the JFK Medical Center on August 17.Alfred passed away at the hospital the next day.Kekula's father，Moses said，“I'm very，very proud.She saved my life through the almighty God.”

Ⅱ.七选五
Sharks have been around for hundreds of millions of years.　1　Some sharks live near the surface，some live deep in the water，and others on or near the ocean floor.
We tend to think of sharks as big dangerous creatures.We sometimes read about shark attacks in the newspapers，and in 1975 the film Jaws terrified moviegoers with the story of a great white shark which attacked tourists in a small seaside town in the USA.　2　It can reach 6 metres in length and up to 2,000 kilograms in weight.It has as many as 3,000 needle sharp teeth，so it can sever(切断) a man's leg in a single bite.
But not all sharks are like the great white.　3　There are almost 400 species of sharks and more than half of these are under a metre in length.The biggest sharks of all are not at all dangerous to humans.The basking shark and the whale shark grow to around 12 metres，but they are quite harmless.
　4　Of these the bull shark is the one that is most likely to attack people.It swims in very shallow waters where people swim.　5　Indeed you are far more likely to be killed by a dog or by bees than by a shark，and some scientists believe that sharks only attack people because they mistake them for their favourite food.
A. The pigmy(非常小的) shark，for example，is only about 20 centimetres in length.
B．Less than one hundred people are attacked by sharks each year.
C．A shark is a large fish considered to be dangerous to humans.
D．Only about 25 species are dangerous to people.
E．The great white is certainly a fearsome creature.
F．We can never imagine such things can happen.
G．They live in oceans and seas all over the world.
