So she went to a law school, got a job at a famous firm in Washington DC, and worked as a lawyer for a decade. But her heart was never in it. “I had a big salary but no personal satisfaction." she says.Shai found relief in the same thing that had brought her joy since joining the church choir（唱诗班）at age 12. “Singing always felt like communicating something real on a spiritual and emotional level/7 says Shai. Yet she never considered it a career option. "That seemed like something people did in fairy tales."It was the brain cancer of her mom in 2023 that made Shai realize she had to write her own happily-ever-after. 66Work was driving me crazy, my mother was sick and I was flying back and forth from Washington DC to Houston to see her,“ Shai says. "I finally said, 'Enough' and quit.”While caring for her mom, Shai hatched a plan: She would take her savings and study music for a year, then open a part-time law practice so she could pursue her passion. Before her mother passed away two years later, she encouraged Shai to follow her dream.In 2023, Shai moved to Nashville to try singing and songwriting.

Her song Live This Life is inspired by her mom (you can hear it at ShaiLittlejohn ), and her dad comes to hear her perform at clubs. She also sings at weddings and special events.“Doing music is so free,“ Shai says. "There'sno pressure to be a star. Success, to me, isn't a dollar amount or a record deal; it is doing what I love.

When my dog drinks from her bowl, there is no question, water will end up on the floor. It looks like a sloppy, unorganized way to get a good drink of water.Researchers at Virginia Tech University have been studying how dogs drink. They say dogs know exactly what they are doing. The animals are actually making precise movements at a high speed. This helps them get the fluid they need when they are thirsty.It turns out that neither dogs, nor cats, have a full set of cheeks. This means they cannot create suction（吮吸）to drink, like humans or elephants and horses. Dogs lap, or take up, the water with their tongues curled backward. As they lap, they move their tongues very quickly to build up momentum （动量）.That forces the water into a column （柱） and up into their mouths.The Virginia Tech researchers filmed 19 dogs of different sizes and breeds as they drank water. They created different laboratory models to measure tongue motion, and the amounts of water taken in. Using the data from these experiments, the researchers were able to make a model that shows how a dog drinks water.The researchers said that since the mouths of dogs and cats are structured nearly the same way, they thought they would drink water the same way, too. But here is a surprise. The studies showed each family of animals has its own special drinking method.“We know cats and dogs are quite different in terms of behavior and character, " saidSunghwan “Sunny" Jung, a study author and an associate professor of biomedical engineeringand mechanics at Virginia Tech."But before we did fundamental studies of how these animals drink fluids, our guess was that dogs and cats drink about the same way. Instead we found out that dogs drink quite differently from cats,“ he said.What is the difference? Dogs must quickly move their tongues down into the water using momentum to bring the water up and into their mouths. Cats don't bend their tongues to drink like dogs. Cats use less momentum and a more gentle action. They just skim, or barely touch, the surface of the water to drink it.“Cats tend be viewed as neater, dogs are messier, but dogs really have to accelerate their tongues“ to make good use of the way the fluid column works, “ said researcher Sean Gart, a Virginia Tech graduate student.27. Which can be the best title for this passage?A Different drinking methods between dogs and catsB Dogs are messier than cats.C. How do dogs drink water?D. How do cats drink water?28. What does the underlined word “sloppy" mean in the first paragraph?A. Clean B. Slow C. Unhappy D. UntidyHow do dogs drink water?A They can drink by sucking like humans, elephants or hostess.B They quickly move their tongues down into the water using momentum to bring the water up and into their mouths.C They bend their tongues and do not necessarily use much momentum.D , They drink in a clean and organized way.29. Which of the following is right?A , Since the mouths of dogs and cats arestructured nearly the same way, they drink water the same way, too.B Cats use more momentum than dogs tobring the water up and into their mouths.C The researchers had thought dogs and cats drink in the same way. But they were wrong.D. Cats need to accelerate their tongues.DOur character, basically, is made up of our habits. "Sow a thought, reap an action; sow an action, reap a habit; sow a habit, reap a character; sow a character, reap a destiny （命 运）J as the saying goes.Habits are powerful factors in our lives. Because they are often unconscious patterns, they constantly daily affect our character and produce our effectiveness or ineffectiveness.银川一中2023届高三年级第六次月考英语试卷第一卷第一局部：听力共两节，总分值30分做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束 后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到 答题卡上。第一节（共5小题；每题1.5分，总分值7.5分）听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从 题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最正确选 项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后, 你都有10秒钟的时间来答复有关小题和阅读下 一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。1.

In 15 years.As Horace Mann, the great educator, once said, n Habits are like a cable. We weave a rope of it every day and soon it cannot be broken.n I personally do not agree with the last part of his expression. I know habits can be learned and unlearned. But we also know it isn't a quick fix. It involves a process and a tremendous effort.Those of us who watched the lunar voyage of Apollo 11 were shocked as we saw the first men walk on the moon and return to earth. But to get there, those astronauts had to break out of the tremendous gravity pull of the earth. More energy was spent in the first few minutes of lift-off, in the first few miles of travel, than was used over the next several days to travel half million miles.Habits, too, have tremendous gravity pull. However, most people don't realize or admit it. Getting rid of bad habits really requires great willpower and some changes in our lives. Lift-off takes tremendous effort, but once we break out of the pull of gravity, we can enjoy unprecedented（空前的）freedom.Like any natural force, gravity pull can work with us or against us. The gravity pull of some of our habits may currently be keeping us from going where we want to go. But it is also gravity pull that keeps our world together and keeps the planets in their orbits and our universe in order. It is a powerful force, and if we use it effectively, we can use the gravity pull of habit to create the order necessary to establish effectiveness in our lives.32. Why did the author quote the saying in the first paragraph?A To show the author was a wise man.B. To support the author's opinion about the habit.C. Because a great educator asked the authorto do it.D. Because the author liked the old saying very much.33 . Why does the author say habits have powerful effects on our lives?A. Because habits can constantly affect out character.B , Because habits can be learned and unlearned.C Because you can reap a character by sowing a habit.D. Because a habit is like a cable and useful to our life.34 . What does the writer mean by referring to gravity pull?A Ridding bad habits needs great willpower.B. Breaking the gravity pull means enjoying freedom.C To prove that the habits can work with usor against us.De The gravity pull is very important in our lives 35- Which can be the best title for this passage?A Forming a good character is importantB , The importance of the pull of gravityC Effectiveness depends on habits.D The powerful factors of habits第二节（共5小题；每题2分，总分值10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入 空白处的最正确选项o选项中的两项为多余选项。How to adapt yourself to college lifeThere are obvious differences between high school and college life.

I just knew Ihad to _f5 somethingeThe next morning, after breakfast, I rowed a boat around the downstairs. It was right then 56 I got the idea. I made a hook andcarefully fastened it to a line. Then I let it sink and began to 57 it slowly back and forth. I spent the next hour or so moving the boat and dragging my line-hoping to find my mother's 58 treasure. But time after time the line came up empty. Just as I made the last turn, I hooked something.59 my breath, I slowly raised my catchto the surface. It was my mother's china.
