A．Alice Hartley.B．James E. Tincher.C．Kathleen Dunleavy.D．Paul Drakeford.Your mobile phone vibrates in your pocket. ‘Need to see you,’ reads the screen. Nothing new, considering that texting is currently the most common form of long-distance communication. But how were messages conveyed in the past?One of the first methods was the smoke signal. This practice was used by Chinese soldiers guarding the Great Wall to warn of the enemy’s approach. Th e Greeks invented a whole alphabet of smoke signals for sending messages. But it was Native Americans who made the system mobile by carrying small bunches of dried grasses around with them. Thesecould be lit quickly from any place at any time.Moving on to messages transmitted by sound, an early technique was the drum. Drums are still used today in the rainforests of Africa, Papua New Guinea and Central and South America for broadcasting news. The instrument is made from a piece of wood, which is empty inside, and this is hit with a stick. On receiving the message, each village passes it on to the next, which means that news can travel at up to 150 km an hour.In some parts of the world, humans are able to convey messages over long distances without using instruments. On La Gomera, one of the Canary Islands, people use Silbo, or the ‘whistling language’ to communicate across the valleys. The language involves the use of the tongue, lips and hands to make sounds, which can travel up to 5 km. To ensure its continuation, Silbo is currently a compulsory subject in primary and secondary schools on the island.A look at long-distance communication would not be complete without mentioning the art of yodelling. This is a form of singing, in which the voice changes sound levels very quickly, making it easily heard over long distances. It is believed that the technique was developed in the Swiss Alps, but it is also found in other places such as Central Africa. At one time, yodelling was popular in theatres and music halls, but this is no longer so.4．What was most remarkable about the Greeks’ system of smoke signals?A．It could communicate words.B．It could be used instantly.C．It could mislead the enemy.D．It could stop wars from breaking out.5．What is the advantage of communicating by drums?A．The length of the message.B．The simplicity of the instrument.C．The speed of the transmission.D．The volume of the sound.6．What would be an accurate definition of ‘yodelling’?A．Moving frequently between high and low notes.B．Singing a recognizable tune in harmony.C．Using music with a really strong beat.D．Shouting in a loud voice.7．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A．Is That Strange?B．Get the Message?C．The Old TechnologyD．The History of InformationMy first introduction to Chinese art was an early morning walk in Beihai Park in Beijing. There, I saw elderly people writing on the pavement with paintbrushes which were a metre long! I soon learned that they were doing water calligraphy − writing in water. The words have meanings, but they are also art. The calligraphy quickly disappears, of course. But tomorrow, the old people will be back.Temporary art like this is very popular in China. Every winter, Harbin, in northern China, is visited by sculptors and tourists from around the world. They come for the Harbin Ice Festival, when the city has huge sculptures made out of ice. The sculptures are bigger than houses, and they take weeks to make. Harbin’s freezing winter temperatures make it very difficult for the artists to work outside. But the weather also means that the sculptures will be protected until the spring.Of course, not all Chinese art is temporary − some of it has been around for a very long time! Near the city of Xi’an, I vis ited the amazing terracotta warriors, or soldiers. In 200 BC, 8,000 statues of soldiers were made by sculptors out of a material called terracotta. They are as big as real people and they all have different faces. An important king had the statues produced to protect his body after he died. They stayed under the ground with the dead king for over 2,000 years, until they were discovered by a farmer in 1974.At the China Art Museum, in Shanghai, I saw wonderful 16th-century Chinese paintings of tall mountains, trees and cliffs. The paintings were beautiful, but they didn’t look very realistic to me at the time. ‘Mountains aren’t like that,’ I thought. But that was before the last stop on my trip: the mountains of Zhangjiajie National Park.These mountains were used by film director James Cameron in his sci-fi film Avatar because they look like something from another planet. On my last weekend in China, I took a cable car up into the mountains there. Trees grew on the sides of hundred-metre cliffs, and strange towers of rock appeared out of the morning fog. It looked just like the pictures in the China Art Museum. For a moment, I felt like I was inside a Chinese painting! 8．According to the passage, what is true about the people in Beihai Park?A．They introduced themselves to the writer.B．Some of them were writing graffiti (涂鸦).C．Their art didn’t last very long.D．They use paint and big brushes.9．What does the author say about the ice festival in Harbin?A．The sculptures don’t last long.B．It’s only popular wit h local people.C．It’s easy to make sculptures out of ice.D．The winter weather both helps and causes problems.10．What is true about the terracotta soldiers of Xi’an according to the passage?A．They all look exactly the same.B．Nobody saw them for a long time.C．Many people died making them.D．They are bigger than real people.11．Which statement describes the author’s feelings about Chinese art?A．She particularly liked Chinese paintings made long time ago.B．She was impressed by different types of Chinese art.C．She did not think it was very realistic.D．She was surprised that it was so old.Daily physical activity is an important part of a healthy lifestyle. For this reason, many architects and designers are working to create buildings that encourage people to make exercise a part of their ordinary routine. The movement to promote healthy activity through architecture is called active design. It began in 1998 as part of a university public health program, and it has since gained popularity in cities around the world. Active design uses a number of techniques to encourage the occupants of a building to be more active.One of the most important strategies of active design is inspiring people to make walking part of their routine. A particularly successful tool for promoting walking is the skip-stop elevator. These elevators stop only on every second or third floor, leaving riders to take the stairs in order to reach their destination. Another strategy of active design is to make stairs more pleasant and inviting. Instead of creating dark stairwells that are located in isolated parts of buildings, active design uses well-lit and centrally placed stairs to encourage more foot traffic.Skip-stop elevators and appealing stair design are both effective tools of active design because they offer incentive and opportunity for exercise. In fact, researchers studying a building that employs both skip-stop elevators and more attractive stair design said that 70 percent of building occupants reported using the stairs every day.Active design encourages physical activity using not only the interior features of a building, but the relationship between a building and its surroundings as well. A building that employs active design may integrate outdoor space in order to make the environment more engaging and promote physical activity. Some elements that architects use to incorporate the exterior with the interior are glass walls, interior gardens or park spaces, and courtyards with open ceilings, all of which de-emphasize the boundaries between inside and outside. These elements make the building more physically and mentally invigorating. Similarly, by increasing the number of entrances and exits to a building, architects can help keep a building’s users interested in their surroundings by providing a variety of routes for them to use. If people continue to be stimulated by new sights or experiences, they are less likely to choose the quickest and easiest path to their destination and may instead choose a more physically challenging route.12．What does the underlined word “incentive” in paragraph 2 mean?A．requirement B．encouragementC．technique D．assistance13．Why does the author discuss dark stairwells in paragraph 2?A．To demonstrate the differences between elevator and stairwell design.B．To describe one advantage of using skip-stop elevators in buildings.C．To make a point about why people don’t use the stairs often.D．To argue that skip-stop elevators may lead to design failures.14．Which of the following is NOT a way that architects weaken the boundary between indoor and outdoor spaces?A．Creating more routes for entering and exiting.B．Building gardens inside the building.C．Creating spaces with open ceilings.D．Using see-through materials.15．How does paragraph 2 relate to paragraph 3 in the passage?A．Para 2 describes an early model of a design discussed in para 3.B．Para 3 argues about the effectiveness of the technique from para 2.C．Para 3 introduces a different strategy than the one discussed in para 2.D．Para 2 explains a technique, and para 3 gives examples of how it is used.二、完形填空A product successful at home does not always guarantee that it will do well abroad. More than one company has failed to consider that, 16 the price is reasonable, local consumers will often only be 17 a product if it is modified to fit their local 18 .It is clearly necessary to take account of local 19 . Something that tastes good in one part of the world does not taste so good in others. A large number of 20 food companies have discovered how important it is to 21 their products to suit local markets. The US soup producers Campbell, 22 , found that their tomato soup was23 too sweet for Europe and Japan. 24 , European food manufacturers have had25 selling their soups in the US, where consumers felt that they were too salty.International fast food restaurant chains were some of the first companies to realize the 26 of changing their products in order to 27 local consumers. A hamburger chain sells shrimp cake sandwiches in its Japanese restaurants. Another 28 squid in Japan and chorizo in Mexico. In the UK, Kentucky Fried Chicken sells thick British-style “chips” instead of fries. While McDonald’s 29 a generally standardized menu worldwide, this is adapted for its foreign 30 . For example, it has sold 31 in Germany but wine in France, and has added mutton pies to its Australian 32 .Businesses hoping to sell their products 33 can learn an important lesson from these companies: it is essential to 34 the market to discover local tastes and preferences, as this is the only way to be sure a product will be as 35 and successful in new markets as it has been at home.16．A．just because B．only when C．even if D．as if 17．A．annoyed by B．grateful for C．angry about D．interested in 18．A．preferences B．beliefs C．religions D．rules 19．A．taste B．culture C．restaurants D．chefs 20．A．famous B．international C．wealthy D．healthy 21．A．improve B．enrich C．adapt D．sweeten 22．A．for example B．for one thing C．moreover D．however23．A．produced B．considered C．cooked D．eaten 24．A．As a result B．In spite of that C．On the other hand D．In short 25．A．problems B．advantages C．motives D．chances 26．A．challenge B．importance C．annoyance D．danger 27．A．appeal to B．prepare for C．know about D．warn against 28．A．likes B．keeps C．buys D．sells 29．A．plans B．changes C．offers D．expands 30．A．friends B．foods C．drinks D．markets 31．A．beer B．drinks C．chicken D．beef 32．A．cakes B．burgers C．menus D．companies 33．A．fast B．abroad C．locally D．cheaply 34．A．test B．enter C．develop D．control 35．A．delicious B．popular C．creative D．natural三、用单词的适当形式完成短文阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

The Penn colleagues and other community members meet three days a week for a roughly 30-minute jog and an occasional lecture. That’s right—during some runs, one of them delivers a talk. Topics range from the brain to Bitcoin.But on this day last January, it would not be their normal run. The first clue that something was off was the man who sprinted past them. “Running at an amazing pace,” Cassidy told Runner’s World admiringly. Cassidy discovered why the sprinter was so fleet of foot when another man ran by, yelling, “Help! He took my phone and laptop!”At that, the group did what running clubs do: They ran, trailing the suspect down the streets of Philadelphia until he ducked into a construction site. The runners split up. Cassidy ran around to the far side of the site to cut the thief off while the others wandered the neighborhood hoping he had dumped the loot (赃物) in a backyard.No luck. So they decided to ask residents whether they’d seen the guy. When they knocked on the door of one row house, they were in for a surprise. Unknown to them, he had already emerged from the construction site—and was hiding behind a bush by that very house. As the owner opened the door, the suspect darted out from behind the bush … and right into the arms of campus police, who’d joined the chase shortly behind the runners.The members of this running group are not hard-core athletes. But they do understand the benefit of a little exercise. “Running is typically a useless sport whe re you turn fat cells into heat,” Cassidy told The Philadelphia Inquirer. “But occasionally it can be useful, and here was one of those opportunities.”24. Why do the group members gather together?A. To do some stretching.B. To have a regular run.C. To deliver a lecture.D. To cover some topics.25. What does the underlined word “sprinted” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Dashed.B. Pushed.C. Jumped.D. Escaped.26. We can infer that the success of the chase is mainly due to _______.A. the assistance of the runnersB. the owner of the row houseC. the campus police on patrolD. the joint efforts of the people27. Which of the following best describes Cassidy?A. Athletic and generous.B. Courageous and ambitious.C. Helpful and humorous.D. Thoughtful and demanding.CFood experts say washing could spread the germs on your turkey in the kitchen sink or nearby food. But it’s been a challenge trying to convince cooks to stop rinsing(冲洗) off raw poultry. Germs that can make people sick are common in the guts of healthy poultry and are legally allowed to be on raw turkey and chicken. The assumption is that nobody eats their poultry raw, and that thorough cooking will kill the bacteria.The do-not-wash raw poultry advice from the USDA is relatively new and perhaps hasn’t caught on because it goes against the common belief that washing makes things clean, said Chapman. Benjamin Chapman, a study author and food safety expert at North Carolina State University, said the instinct to wash raw poultry goes back at least decades when people relied more on visual clues to spot problems with poultry. Meanwhile, washing hands and surfaces are also important.But food preparation is a complicated act, and germs from poultry can be spread even if it’s not washed, especially when birds are removed from packaging.The USDA-funded study stresses that point. Researchers sprayed raw chicken with a harmless strain of E. coli(大肠杆菌) and watched volunteer cooks at test kitchens. Among those who washed their raw chicken, about a quarter ended up spreading the bacteria to their lettuce. But even some of those who did not rinse the chicken got germson the lettuce. And there are other opportunities for germs to survive on turkeys: melting and cooking.To ensure a bird is thoroughly cooked, they say to use a thermometer to check that the deepest and thickest parts of it have reached 165 degrees. Even after the meal is cooked, you aren’t out of the danger zone. To keep turkeys and other leftovers safe, experts say they should be refrigerated after two hours.28. People don’t accept USDA’s advice because _______.A. the advice is relatively newB. cleaning seems more trustworthyC. cooks clean the turkey before cooking itD. heat can kill most germs and no one eats raw food29. What can be concluded from Paragraph 4?A. Food packages carry germs.B. Hands and surfaces are easy to get E. coli.C. Germs from a turkey can be spread whether it is washed or not.D. Multiple methods should be applied to food to get rid of germs.30. Which way may help to cook a turkey safely?A. Rinse off the turkey before it is heated.B. Keep the turkey away from the lettuce and refrigerator.C. Wash hands and packages before taking out the turkey.D. Use a thermometer to check the temperature of the turkey.31. From which section of a magazine is the text probably taken?A. Culture.B. Science.C. Education.D. Medicine.DMicroplastics are everywhere in our en vironment. It’s hardly surprising that the tiny fragments have also been found in humans. A new study shows that Americans are consuming as many as 121,000 particles each year.Measuring 50 to 500 microns in length, microplastics come from a variety of sources, including large plastics that break down into smaller and smaller pieces. Therefore, much remains unknown about the common existence of these materials within the human body, as well as their impact on human health.Hoping to fill in some of these gaps, a research team led by Kieran Cox, a PhD candidate at the University of Victoria, looked at 26 papers assessing the amount of microplastics in commonly consumed food items, among which are seafood, sugars, salts, honey, alcohol and water. The team also evaluated the potential consumption of microplastics through inhalation (吸入) using previously reported data on microplastic concentrations in the air and the Environmental Protection Agency’s reported respiration rates. Based on these data, the researchers calculated that our annualconsumption of microplastics via food and drink ranges from 39,000 to 52,000 particles. When microplastics taken in through inhalation are taken into account, the range jumps to between 74,000 and 121,000 particles per year.The authors of the study found that people who drink exclusively from plastic water bottles absorb an additional 90,000 microplastics each year, compared to 4,000 among those who only consume tap water. “This shows that small decisions, over the course of a year, really matter and have an impact.” Cox says. The new study, according to its authors, was the first to investigate “the accumulative human exposure” to microplastics. But in all likelihood, the research tells only a small part of the entire story. Collectively, the food and drink that the researchers analyzed represent 15 percent of Americans’ caloric intake. The team could not account for food groups like fruits, vegetables and grains because there simply is not enough data on their microplastic content.For those worried about microplastic consumption, cutting down bottled water is a good place to start. But to the heart of the problem, we have to stop producing and using so much plastic.32. What makes it difficult to know microplastics commonly exist in the human body?A. The quality.B. The quantity.C. The shape.D. The size.33. How did Kieran Cox’s team calculate the potential consumption of microplastics?A. By studying papers.B. By comparing the impacts.C. By analyzing the data.D.

I play for a living. I love doing it,” Patterson tells CNBC. But Patterson’s road to success didn’t happen overnight. He started writing as a side hustle and he faced a lot of rejection before getting his first book published.Patterson grew up in the woods in Newburgh, New York with an insurance salesman father and a schoolteacher mother. Despite having dreams of being a writer, the idea “always seemed presumptuous”, Patterson says. But after reading books by James Joyce, “it really turned me on to reading, and then I started writing,” he says.After college, Patterson got his first job as a junior copy writer at the advertising agency J. Walter Thompson. While climbing the corporate ladder, Patterson wrote his first book, The Thomas Berryman Number in the mid-70s. The book “got turned down by 31 publishers”, Patterson says. But after it was finally published in 1976, “then it won an Edgar Award for best first novel.” The Edgar Award, which is named after Edgar Alan Poe, honors the best writers in mystery fiction and non-fiction.Despite publishing his first book at age 26, Patterson didn’t have a bestseller until he was 40. “It wasn’t like all of a sudden,” he says. In fact, Patterson kept his day job for decades and got promoted to CEO of J. Walter Thompson in 1988. During that time, Patterson says he would read well over 100 books a year to help spark his creativity. “I have a huge imagination and I’m constantly asking, what about this? What about that?” he says.Despite his success, Patterson says he doesn’t like to give advice, especially about writing. But he credits his own success to his work ethic and passion. “I also don’t take myself too seriously,” he says. “Yeah, I sell a lot of books, so what?”4. What do we know about James Patterson?A. He produced a bestseller when he was 26.B. He read a lot of books to get source of inspiration.C. He worked as a full-time writer when he was young.D. He got inspiration for his first book when climbing a ladder.5. What does the underlined word “presumptuous” mean in paragraph 2?A. Unrealistic.B. Contradictory.C. Imaginative.D. Inspiring.6. What can we infer about James Patterson from the last paragraph?A. He has sold a lot of books.B. He doesn’t take his job seriously.C. He values positive attitudes to work.D. He is unwilling to give advice to readers.7. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A. The Secret to Career SuccessB. A Tough Road to a Bestseller WriterC. An Edgar Award WinnerD. A Not-to-be-missed FictionCPolar bear mothers invest a huge amount into their cubs (幼兽), isolating themselves in dens (兽穴) dug with great effort into piles of snow to provide care through the unforgiving conditions of Arctic winter. It’s little wonder that the bears are hesitant to leave when disturbed, even when oil drilling equipment is in operation nearby.“We found that bears wouldn’t abandon their dens even with vehicles driving right overhead,” says Wesley Larson, who worked his way from office assistant to a graduate student position with Utah’s Brigham Young University, monitoring polar bears on Alaska’s North Slope.Scientists have recorded an increase in human-wildlife conflict in the area, as offshore pack ice has decreased, forcing the bear population to create their dens closer to petrol industry activity. With increased industry interest in oil and gas leasing (租赁) in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, strong evidence to help support and carry out protective measures for the species has never been more important.Wildlife managers in Alaska depend on a rule that industrial activity and research cannot take place within 1.6 km of a den with newborn babies in it. Working with 15 years of monitoring records, and 30 years of notes concerning interactions between the industry and the bears, Larson and colleagues were able to confirm that the regulation was sufficient, but that more needed to be done to actively locate dens. He explains that with entrances quickly covered by snow and dens closed-up until spring, they are effectively undetectable to the naked eye.“While technology such as forward-looking infrared cameras can be used to try to pick up a heat signature inside the den, it only works when conditions are perfect, and they rarely are in Arctic winter,” says Larson. He is now consulting on a project using radar technology to identify dens and ensure protection for the animals symbolic of the Arctic.8. Why does the author mention polar bear mothers in paragraph 1?A. To attract sympathy for the polar bears.B. To condemn human activities that damage nature.C. To show the severe environment polar bears live in.D. To explain polar bears’ unwillingness to leave their dens.9. What can be inferred from paragraph 3?A. Pursuit of economic interest threatens polar bears’ existence.B. Protective measures were not considered important in the past.C. Human activities have led to the reduction of offshore pack ice.D. The development of petrol industry has forced the bears to leave.10. What is Larson’s attitude towards the regulation of human activities in Alaska?A. Approving.B. Critical.C. Worried.D. Hopeful.11. What is the main idea of the text?A. Attention should be paid to protecting polar bears.B. Technology should be applied to identify polar bears.C. More efforts are necessary to monitor polar bear dens.D. It’s very difficult to successfully locate polar bear dens.DIt may not be rocket science, but researchers have found aerospace engineers and neurosurgeons (神经外科医生) are not necessarily brighter than the general population.Researchers examined data from an international group of 329 aerospace engineers and 72 brain surgeons who completed 12 tasks online using the Great British Intelligence Test.The tasks examined various aspects of cognition (认知), including planning and reasoning, working memory, attention, and emotion processing abilities. The researchers then compared the results against those previously gathered from more than 18,000 members of the British public.The findings, which were recently published, reveal that only neurosurgeons showed a significant difference, with quicker problem-solving speed but slower memory recall compared with the general population. “The difference in problem-solving speed exhibited by neurosurgeons might arise from the fast-paced nature of neurosurgery, which attracts those with a pre-existing talent for rapid processing, or it could be, though less likely, a product of training for rapid decision-making in time-critical situations,” the researchers noted.The researchers said the study was, in part, carried out to lay to rest the question of whether one of the professions had the intellectual upper hand — a tension made famous by a comedy show in which a confident neurosurgeon is slapped down by an aerospace expert who says, “Brain surgery … it’s not exactly rocket science, is it?”However, the team found few differences between the cognitive abilities of aerospace engineers and neuroscientists, although the results suggest the former had higher scores for attention and mental control — such as turning objects in one’s head — while neurosurgeons showed higher scores in semantic (语义的) problem solving — such as definitions of rare words.“Essentially what we think it shows is that everyone has a range of skills, some people are better at some things and other people are better at other things, and it is very difficult to be better in everything across the board,” said Aswin Chari, an author of the study.12. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?A. The research subjects.B. The research method.C. The research aspects.D. The research background.13. What seemed to be the major cause of neurosurgeons’ quicker problem-solving speedshown in the study?A. Fast development of neurosurgery.B. Talent of neurosurgeons.C. Training for rapid decision-making.D. Nature of problem solving.14. The study was conducted partly because the researchers _____.A. attempted to answer the question asked by the aerospace expert in the showB. were eager to solve the conflicts between neurosurgeons and aerospace engineersC. intended to settle the argument over the intellectual superiority of the two professionsD. wanted to find out which of the two professions was more intellectually demanding15. What is most likely to be the purpose of this text?A. To inform people of the results of a cognitive study.B. To encourage people to be confident in themselves.C. To reduce prejudice against certain professions.D. To correct misunderstandings about intelligence.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分)阅读短文，从短文后选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

The Penn colleagues and other community members meet three days a week for a roughly 30-minute jog and an occasional lecture. That's right― d uring some runs, one of them delivers a talk. Topics range from the brain to Bitcoin.But on this day last January, it would not be their normal run. The first clue that something was off was the man who sprinted past them. "Running at an amazing pace,"Cassidy told Runner's World admiringly. Cassidy discovered why the sprinter was so fleet of foot when another man ran by, yelling, “Help! He took my phone and laptop!"At that, the group did what running clubs do: They ran, trailing the suspect down the streets of Philadelphia until he ducked into a construction site. The runners split up. Cassidy ran around to the far side of the site to cut the thief off while the others wandered the neighborhood hoping he had dumped the loot （赃物）in a backyard.No luck. So they decided to ask residents whether they'd seen the guy. When they knocked on the door of one row house, they were in for a surprise. Unknown to them, he had already emerged from the construction site—and was hiding behind a bush by that very house. As the owner opened the door, the suspect darted out from behind the bush ... and right into the arms of campus police, who'd joined the chase shortly behind the runners.The members of this running group are not hard-core athletes. But they do understand the benefit of a little exercise. ''Running is typically a useless sport where you turn fat cells into heat," Cassidy told The Philadelphia Inquirer. "But occasionally it can be useful, and here was one of those opportunities."24. Why do the group members gather together?A. To do some stretching.B. To have a regular run.C. To deliver a lecture.D. To cover some topics.25. What does the underlined word "sprinted" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Dashed.B. Pushed.C. Jumped.D. Escaped.26. We can infer that the success of the chase is mainly due to _________ .A. the assistance of the runnersB. the owner of the row houseC. the campus police on patrolD. the joint efforts of the people27. Which of the following best describes Cassidy?A. Athletic and generous.B. Courageous and ambitious.C. Helpful and humorous.D. Thoughtful and demanding.CFood experts say washing could spread the germs on your turkey in the kitchen sink or nearby food.But it's been a challenge trying to convince cooks to stop rinsing （冲洗）off raw poultry. Germs that can make people sick are common in the guts of healthy poultry and are legally allowed to be on raw turkey and chicken. The assumption is that nobody eats their poultry raw, and that thorough cooking will kill the bacteria.The do — not — wash raw poultry advice from the USDA is relatively new and perhaps hasn't caught on because it goes against the common belief that washing makes things clean, said Chapman. Benjamin Chapman, a study author and food safety expert atNorth Carolina State University, said the instinct to wash raw poultry goes back at least decades when people relied more on visual clues to spot problems with poultry. Meanwhile, washing hands and surfaces are also important.But food preparation is a complicated act, and germs from poultry can be spread even if it's not washed, especially when birds are removed from packaging.The USDA-funded study stresses that point. Researchers sprayed raw chicken with a harmless strain of E. coli （大肠杆菌）and watched volunteer cooks at test kitchens. Among those who washed their raw chicken, about a quarter ended up spreading the bacteria to their lettuce. But even some of those who did not rinse the chicken got germs on the lettuce. And there are other opportunities for germs to survive on turkeys: melting and cooking.To ensure a bird is thoroughly cooked, they say to use a thermometer to check that the deepest and thickest parts of it have reached 165 degrees. Even after the meal is cooked, you aren't out of the danger zone. To keep turkeys and other leftovers safe, experts say they should be refrigerated after two hours.28. People don't accept USDA's advice because __________ .A. the advice is relatively newB. cleaning seems more trustworthyC. cooks clean the turkey before cooking itD. heat can kill most germs and no one eats raw food29. What can be concluded from Paragraph 4?A. Food packages carry germs.B. Hands and surfaces are easy to get E. coli.C. Germs from a turkey can be spread whether it is washed or not.D. Multiple methods should be applied to food to get rid of germs.30. Which way may help to cook a turkey safely?A. Rinse off the turkey before it is heated.B. Keep the turkey away from the lettuce and refrigerator.C. Wash hands and packages before taking out the turkey.D. Use a thermometer to check the temperature of the turkey.31. From which section of a magazine is the text probably taken?A. Culture.B. Science.C. Education.D. Medicine.DMicroplastics are everywhere in our environment. It's hardly surprising that the tiny fragments have also been found in humans. A new study shows that America ns are consuming as many as 121,000 particles each year.Measuring 50 to 500 microns in length, microplastics come from a variety ofsources, including large plastics that break down into smaller and smaller pieces. Therefore, much remains unknown about the common existence of these materials within the human body, as well as their impact on human health.Hoping to fill in some of these gaps, a research team led by Kieran Cox, a PhD candidate at theUniversity of Victoria, looked at 26 papers assessing the amount of microplastics in commonly consumed food items, among which are seafood, sugars, salts, honey, alcohol and water. The team also evaluated the potential consumption of microplastics through inhalation （吸入）using previously reported data on microplastic concentrations in the air and the Environmental Protection Agency's reported respiration rates. Based on these data, the researchers calculated that our annual consumption of microplastics via food and drink ranges from 39,000 to 52,000 particles. When microplastics taken in through inhalation are taken into account, the range jumps to between 74,000 and 121,000 particles per year.The authors of the study found that people who drink exclusively from plastic water bottles absorb an additional 90,000 microplastics each year, compared to 4,000 among those who only consume tap water. "This shows that small decisions, over the course of a year, really matter and have an impact." Cox says. The new study, according to its authors, was the first to investigate "the accumulative human exposure" to microplastics. But in all likelihood, the research tells only a small part of the entire story. Collectively, the food and drink that the researchers analyzed represent 15 percent of Americans' caloric intake. The team could not account for food groups like fruits, vegetables and grains because there simply is not enough data on their microplastic content.For those worried about microplastic consumption, cutting down bottled water is a good place to start. But to the heart of the problem, we have to stop producing and using so much plastic.32. What makes it difficult to know microplastics commonly exist in the human body?A. The quality.B. The quantity.C. The shape.D. The size.33. How did Kieran Cox's team calculate the potential consumption of microplastics?A. By studying papers.B. By comparing the impacts.C. By analyzing the data.D. By conducting experiments.34. Which of the following is true according to the text?A. Drinking less plastic bottled water helps to take in fewer microplastics.B. The study is among the earliest to investigate human exposure to microplastics.C. Cox's team gained comprehensive information of microplastics taken in by humans.D. People consume 74,000 to 121,000 particles of microplastics per year from food and drink.35. What is the best title for the text?A. The Potential Problems of MicroplasticsB. Microplastics Coming From Various SourcesC. Microplastics Found Within Human BodiesD. The Impact of Microplastics on Human Health第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分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佳选项。

D.Paul Drakeford.BYour mobile phone vibrates in your pocket. ‘Need to see you,’ reads the screen. Nothing new, considering that texting is currently the most common form of long-distance communication. But how were messages conveyed in the past?One of the first methods was the smoke signal. This practice was used by Chinese soldiers guarding the Great Wall to warn of the enemy’s approach. The Greeks invented a whole alphabet of smoke signals for sending messages. But it was Native Americans who made the system mobile by carrying small bunches of dried grasses around with them. These could be lit quickly from any place at any time.Moving on to messages transmitted by sound, an early technique was the drum. Drums are still used today in the rainforests of Africa, Papua New Guinea and Central and South America for broadcasting news. The instrument is made from a piece of wood, which is empty inside, and this is hit with a stick. On receiving the message, each village passes it on to the next, which means that news can travel at up to 150 km an hour.In some parts of the world, humans are able to convey messages over long distances without using instruments. On La Gomera, one of the Canary Islands, people use Silbo, or the ‘whistling language’ to communicate across the valleys. The language involves the use of the tongue, lips and hands to make sounds, which can travel up to 5 km. To ensure its continuation, Silbo is currently a compulsory subject in primaryand secondary schools on the island.A look at long-distance communication would not be complete without mentioning the art of yodelling. This is a form of singing, in which the voice changes sound levels very quickly, making it easily heard over longdistances. It is believed that the technique was developed in the Swiss Alps, but it is also found in other places such as Central Africa. At one time, yodelling was popular in theatres and music halls, but this is no longer so.4.What was most remarkable about the Greeks’ system of smoke signals?A. It could communicate words.B. It could be used instantly.C.It could mislead the enemy.D. It could stop wars from breaking out.5.What is the advantage of communicating by drums?A. The length of the message.B. The simplicity of the instrument.C. The speed of the transmission.D. The volume of the sound.6.What would be an accurate definition of ‘yodelling’? A.Moving frequently between high and low notes.B. Singing a recognizable tune in harmony.C. Using music with a really strong beat.D.Shouting in a loud voice.7.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Is That Strange?B. Get the Message?C.The Old TechnologyD. The History of InformationCMy first introduction to Chinese art was an early morning walk in Beihai Park in Beijing. There, I saw elderly people writing on the pavement with paintbrushes which were a metre long! I soon learned that they were doing water calligraphy − writing in water. The words have meanings, but t hey are also art. The calligraphy quickly disappears, of course. But tomorrow, the old people will be back.Temporary art like this is very popular in China. Every winter, Harbin, in northern China, is visited by sculptors and tourists from around the world. They come for the Harbin Ice Festival, when the city has hugesculptures made out of ice. The sculptures are bigger than houses, and they take weeks to make. Harbin’s freezing winter temperatures make it very difficult for the artists to work outside. But the weather also means that the sculptures will be protected until the spring.Of course, not all Chinese art is temporary − some of it has been around for a very long time! Near the city of Xi’an, I visited the amazing terracotta warriors, or soldiers. In 200 BC, 8,000 statues of soldiers were made by sculptors out of a material called terracotta. They are as big as real people and they all have different faces. An important king had the statues produced to protect his body after he died. They stayed under the ground with the dead king for over 2,000 years, until they were discovered by a farmer in 1974.At the China Art Museum, in Shanghai, I saw wonderful 16th-century Chinese paintings of tall mountains, trees and cliffs. The paintings were beautiful, but they didn’t look very realistic to me at the time. ‘Mountains aren’t like that,’ I thought. But that was before the last stop on my trip: the mountains of Zhangjiajie National Park.These mountains were used by film director James Cameron in his sci-fi film Avatar because they look like something from another planet. On my last weekend in China, I took a cable car up into the mountains there. Trees grew on the sides of hundred-metre cliffs, and strange towers of rock appeared out of the morning fog. It looked just like the pictures in the China Art Museum. For a moment, I felt like I was inside a Chinese painting!8.According to the passage, what is true about the people in Beihai Park?A. They introduced themselves to the writer.B. Some of them were writing graffiti (涂鸦).C. Their art didn’t last very long.D. They use paint and big brushes.9.What does the author say about the ice festival in Harbin?A. The sculptures don’t last long.B. It’s only popular with local people.C. It’s easy to make sculptures out of ice.D. The winter weather both helps and causes problems.10.What is true about the terracotta soldiers of Xi’an according to the passage?A. They all look exactly the same.B. Nobody saw them for a long time.C. Many people died making them.D. They are bigger than real people.11.Which statement describes the author’s feelings about Chinese art?A. She particularly liked Chinese paintings made long time ago.B. She was impressed by different types of Chinese art.C. She did not think it was very realistic.D. She was surprised that it was so old.DDaily physical activity is an important part of a healthy lifestyle. For this reason, many architects and designers are working to create buildings that encourage people to make exercise a part of their ordinary routine. The movement to promote healthy activity through architecture is called active design. It began in 1998 as part of a university public health program, and it has since gained popularity in cities around the world. Active design uses a number of techniques to encourage the occupants of a building to be more active.One of the most important strategies of active design is inspiring people to make walking part of their routine. A particularly successful tool for promoting walking is the skip-stop elevator. These elevators stop only on every second or third floor, leaving riders to take the stairs in order to reach their destination. Another strategy of active design is to make stairs more pleasant and inviting. Instead of creating dark stairwells that are located in isolated parts of buildings, active design uses well-lit and centrally placed stairs to encourage more foot traffic. Skip-stop elevators and appealing stair design are both effective tools of active design because they offer incentive and opportunity for exercise. In fact, researchers studying a building that employs both skip-stop elevators and more attractive stair design said that 70 percent of building occupants reported using the stairs every day.Active design encourages physical activity using not only the interior features of a building, but the relationship between a building and its surroundings as well. A building that employs active design may integrate outdoor space in order to make the environment more engaging and promote physical activity. Some elements that architects use to incorporate the exterior with the interior are glass walls, interior gardens or park spaces, and courtyards with open ceilings, all of which de-emphasize the boundaries between inside and outside. These elements make the building more physically and mentally invigorating. Similarly, by increasing the number of entrances and exits to a building, architects can help keep a building’s users interested in their surroundings by providing a variety of routes for them to use. If people continue to be stimulated by new sights or experiences, theyare less likely to choose the quickest and easiest path to their destination and may instead choose a more physically challenging route.12. What does the underlined word “incentive” in paragraph 2 mean?A. requirementB. encouragementC. techniqueD. assistance13. Why does the author discuss dark stairwells in paragraph 2?A. To demonstrate the differences between elevator and stairwell design.B. To describe one advantage of using skip-stop elevators in buildings.C. To make a point about why people don’t use the stairs often.D. To argue that skip-stop elevators may lead to design failures.14.Which of the following is NOT a way that architects weaken the boundary between indoor and outdoor spaces?A. Creating more routes for entering and exiting.B. Building gardens inside the building.C. Creating spaces with open ceilings.D.Using see-through materials.15.How does paragraph 2 relate to paragraph 3 in the passage?A. Para 2 describes an early model of a design discussed in para 3.B. Para 3 argues about the effectiveness of the technique from para 2.C. Para 3 introduces a different strategy than the one discussed in para 2.D. Para 2 explains a technique, and para 3 gives examples of how it is used.第二节（共 5 小题；每小题 2 分，满分 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佳选项。

The Penn colleagues and other community members meet three days a week for a roughly 30-minute jog and an occasional lecture. That’s right—during some runs, one of them delivers a talk. Topics range from the brain to Bitcoin.But on this day last January, it would not be their normal run. The first clue that something was off was the man who sprinted past them. “Running at an amazing pace,” Cassidy told Runner’s World admiringly. Cassidy discovered why the sprinter was so fleet of foot when another man ran by, yelling, “Help! He took my phone and laptop!”At that, the group did what running clubs do: They ran, trailing the suspect down the streets of Philadelphia until he ducked into a construction site. The runners split up. Cassidy ran around to the far side of the site to cut the thief off while the others wandered the neighborhood hoping he had dumped the loot (赃物) in a backyard.No luck. So they decided to ask residents whether they’d seen the guy. When they knocked on the door of one row house, they were in for a surprise. Unknown to them, he had already emerged from the construction site—and was hiding behind a bush by that very house. As the owner opened the door, the suspect darted out from behind the bush … and right into the arms of campus police, who’d joined the chase shortly behind the runners.The members of this running group are not hard-core athletes. But they do understand the benefit of a little exercise. “Running is typically a useless sport whe re you turn fat cells into heat,” Cassidy told The Philadelphia Inquirer. “But occasionally it can be useful, and here was one of those opportunities.”24. Why do the group members gather together?A. To do some stretching.B. To have a regular run.C. To deliver a lecture.D. To cover some topics.25. What does the underlined word “sprinted” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Dashed.B. Pushed.C. Jumped.D. Escaped.26. We can infer that the success of the chase is mainly due to _______.A. the assistance of the runnersB. the owner of the row houseC. the campus police on patrolD. the joint efforts of the people27. Which of the following best describes Cassidy?A. Athletic and generous.B. Courageous and ambitious.C. Helpful and humorous.D. Thoughtful and demanding.CFood experts say washing could spread the germs on your turkey in the kitchen sink or nearby food. But it’s been a challenge trying to convince cooks to stop rinsing(冲洗) off raw poultry. Germs that can make people sick are common in the guts of healthy poultry and are legally allowed to be on raw turkey and chicken. The assumption is that nobody eats their poultry raw, and that thorough cooking will kill the bacteria.The do-not-wash raw poultry advice from the USDA is relatively new and perhaps hasn’t caught on because it goes against the common belief that washing makes things clean, said Chapman. Benjamin Chapman, a study author and food safety expert at North Carolina State University, said the instinct to wash raw poultry goes back at least decades when people relied more on visual clues to spot problems with poultry. Meanwhile, washing hands and surfaces are also important.But food preparation is a complicated act, and germs from poultry can be spread even if it’s not washed, especially when birds are removed from packaging.The USDA-funded study stresses that point. Researchers sprayed raw chicken with a harmless strain of E. coli(大肠杆菌) and watched volunteer cooks at test kitchens. Among those who washed their raw chicken, about a quarter ended up spreading the bacteria to their lettuce. But even some of those who did not rinse the chicken got germson the lettuce. And there are other opportunities for germs to survive on turkeys: melting and cooking.To ensure a bird is thoroughly cooked, they say to use a thermometer to check that the deepest and thickest parts of it have reached 165 degrees. Even after the meal is cooked, you aren’t out of the danger zone. To keep turkeys and other leftovers safe, experts say they should be refrigerated after two hours.28.

It’s hardly surprising that the tiny fragments have also been found in humans. A new study shows that Americans are consuming as many as 121,000 particles each year.Measuring 50 to 500 microns in length, microplastics come from a variety of sources, including large plastics that break down into smaller and smaller pieces. Therefore, much remains unknown about the common existence of these materials within the human body, as well as their impact on human health.Hoping to fill in some of these gaps, a research team led by Kieran Cox, a PhD candidate at the University of Victoria, looked at 26 papers assessing the amount of microplastics in commonly consumed food items, among which are seafood, sugars, salts, honey, alcohol and water. The team also evaluated the potential consumption of microplastics through inhalation (吸入) using previously reported data on microplastic concentrations in the air and the Environmental Protection Agency’s reported respiration rates. Based on these data, the researchers calculated that our annualconsumption of microplastics via food and drink ranges from 39,000 to 52,000 particles. When microplastics taken in through inhalation are taken into account, the range jumps to between 74,000 and 121,000 particles per year.The authors of the study found that people who drink exclusively from plastic water bottles absorb an additional 90,000 microplastics each year, compared to 4,000 among those who only consume tap water. “This shows that small decisions, over the course of a year, really matter and have an impact.” Cox says. The new study, according to its authors, was the first to investigate “the accumulative human exposure” to microplastics. But in all likelihood, the research tells only a small part of the entire story. Collectively, the food and drink that the researchers analyzed represent 15 percent of Americans’ caloric intake. The team could not account for food groups like fruits, vegetables and grains because there simply is not enough data on their microplastic content.For those worried about microplastic consumption, cutting down bottled water is a good place to start. But to the heart of the problem, we have to stop producing and using so much plastic.32. What makes it difficult to know microplastics commonly exist in the human body?A. The quality.B.

AOne Day I was Smiling AgainMom’s Poetry Rhyme Rhythm Reason1. What do the four books have in common?A. They share the same topic.B. They share the same website.C. They all have digital editions.D. They are literature of the same type.2. Which book is about the author’s personal experiences in times of difficulties?A. One Day I was Thinking About?B. Rhyme Rhythm Reason.C. Smiling Again.D. Mom’s Poetry.3. Which author got inspirations from occasions of family gatherings for the book?A. Alice Hartley.B. James E. Tincher.C. Kathleen Dunleavy.D. Paul Drakeford.【答案】1. D 2. C 3. ABYour mobile phone vibrates in your pocket. ‘Need to see you,’ reads the screen. Nothing new, considering that texting is currently the most common form of long-distance communication. But how were messages conveyed in the past?One of the first methods was the smoke signal. This practice was used by Chinese soldiers guarding the Great Wall to warn of the enemy’s approach. The Greeks invented a whole alphabet of smoke signals for sending messages. But it was Native Americans who made the system mobile by carrying small bunches of dried grasses around with them. These could be lit quickly from any place at any time.Moving on to messages transmitted by sound, an early technique was the drum. Drums are still used today in the rainforests of Africa, Papua New Guinea and Central and South America for broadcasting news. The instrument is made from a piece of wood, which is empty inside, and this is hit with a stick. On receiving the message, each village passes it on to the next, which means that news can travel at up to 150 km an hour.In some parts of the world, humans are able to convey messages over long distances without using instruments. On La Gomera, one of the Canary Islands, people use Silbo, or the ‘whistling language’ to communicate across the valleys. The language involves the use of the tongue, lips and hands to make sounds, which can travel up to 5 km. To ensure its continuation, Silbo is currently a compulsory subject in primary and secondary schools on the island.A look at long-distance communication would not be complete without mentioning the art of yodelling. This is a form of singing, in which the voice changes sound levels very quickly, making it easily heard over long distances. It is believed that the technique was developed in the Swiss Alps, but it is also found in other places such as Central Africa. At one time, yodelling was popular in theatres and music halls, but this is no longer so.4. What was most remarkable about the Greeks’ system of smoke signals?A. It could communicate words.B. It could be used instantly.C. It could mislead the enemy.D. It could stop wars from breaking out.5. What is the advantage of communicating by drums?A. The length of the message.B. The simplicity of the instrument.C. The speed of the transmission.D. The volume of the sound.6. What would be an accurate definition of ‘yodelling’?A. Moving frequently between high and low notes.B. Singing a recognizable tune in harmony.C. Using music with a really strong beat.D. Shouting in a loud voice.7. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Is That Strange?B. Get the Message?C. The Old TechnologyD. The History of Information【答案】4. A 5. C 6. A 7. BCMy first introduction to Chinese art was an early morning walk in Beihai Park in Beijing. There, I saw elderly people writing on the pavement with paintbrushes which were a metre long!I soon learned that they were doing water calligraphy −writing in water. The words have meanings, but they are also art. The calligraphy quickly disappears, of course. But tomorrow, the old people will be back.Temporary art like this is very popular in China. Every winter, Harbin, in northern China, is visited by sculptors and tourists from around the world. They come for the Harbin Ice Festival, when the city has huge sculptures made out of ice. The sculptures are bigger than houses, and they take weeks to make. Harbin’s freezing winter temperatures make it very difficult for the artists to work outside. But the weather also means that the sculptures will be protected until the spring.Of course, not all Chinese art is temporary − some of it has been around for a very long time! Near the city of Xi’an, I visited the amazing terracotta warriors, or soldiers. In 200 BC, 8,000 statues of soldiers were made by sculptors out of a material called terracotta. They are as big as real people and they all have different faces. An important king had the statues produced to protect his body after he died. They stayed under the ground with the dead king for over 2,000 years, until they were discovered by a farmer in 1974.At the China Art Museum, in Shanghai, I saw wonderful 16th-century Chinese paintings of tall mountains, trees and cliffs. The paintings were beautiful, but they didn’t look very realistic t o me at the time. ‘Mountains aren’t like that,’ I thought. But that was before the last stop on my trip: the mountains of Zhangjiajie National Park.These mountains were used by film director James Cameron in his sci-fi film Avatar because they look like something from another planet. On my last weekend in China, I took a cable car up into the mountains there. Trees grew on the sides of hundred-metre cliffs, and strange towers of rock appeared out of the morning fog. It looked just like the pictures in the China Art Museum. For a moment, I felt like I was inside a Chinese painting!8. According to the passage, what is true about the people in Beihai Park?A. They introduced themselves to the writer.B. Some of them were writing graffiti (涂鸦).C. Their art di dn’t last very long.D. They use paint and big brushes.9. What does the author say about the ice festival in Harbin?A. The sculptures don’t last long.B. It’s only popular with local people.C. It’s easy to make sculptures out of ice.D. The winter weather both helps and causes problems.10. What is true about the terracotta soldiers of Xi’an according to the passage?A. They all look exactly the same.B. Nobody saw them for a long time.C. Many people died making them.D. They are bigger than real people.11. Which statement describes the author’s feelings about Chinese art?A. She particularly liked Chinese paintings made long time ago.B. She was impressed by different types of Chinese art.C. She did not think it was very realistic.D. She was surprised that it was so old.【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. BDDaily physical activity is an important part of a healthy lifestyle. For this reason, many architects and designers are working to create buildings that encourage people to make exercise a part of their ordinary routine. The movement to promote healthy activity through architecture is called active design. It began in 1998 as part of a university public health program, and it has since gained popularity in cities around the world. Active design uses a number of techniques to encourage the occupants of a building to be more active.One of the most important strategies of active design is inspiring people to make walking part of their routine. A particularly successful tool for promoting walking is the skip-stop elevator. These elevators stop only on every second or third floor, leaving riders to take the stairs in order to reach their destination. Another strategy of active design is to make stairs more pleasant and inviting. Instead of creating dark stairwells that are located in isolated parts of buildings, active design uses well-lit and centrally placed stairs to encourage more foot traffic. Skip-stop elevators and appealing stair design are both effective tools of active design because they offer incentive and opportunity for exercise. In fact, researchers studying a building that employs both skip-stop elevators and more attractive stair design said that 70 percent of building occupants reported using the stairs every day.Active design encourages physical activity using not only the interior features of a building, but the relationship between a building and its surroundings as well. A building that employs active design may integrate outdoor space in order to make the environment more engaging and promote physical activity. Some elements that architects use to incorporate the exterior with the interior are glass walls, interior gardens or park spaces, and courtyards with open ceilings, all of which de-emphasize the boundaries between inside and outside. These elements make the building more physically and mentally invigorating. Similarly, by increasing the number of entrances and exits to a building, architects can help keep a building’s users interested in their surroundings by providing a variety of routes for them to use. If people continue to bestimulated by new sights or experiences, they are less likely to choose the quickest and easiest path to their destination and may instead choose a more physically challenging route.12. What does the underlined word “incentive” in paragraph 2 mean?A. requirementB. encouragementC. techniqueD. assistance13. Why does the author discuss dark stairwells in paragraph 2?A. To demonstrate the differences between elevator and stairwell design.B. To describe one advantage of using skip-stop elevators in buildings.C. To make a point about why people don’t use the stairs often.D. To argue that skip-stop elevators may lead to design failures.14. Which of the following is NOT a way that architects weaken the boundary between indoor and outdoor spaces?A. Creating more routes for entering and exiting.B. Building gardens inside the building.C. Creating spaces with open ceilings.D. Using see-through materials.15. How does paragraph 2 relate to paragraph 3 in the passage?A. Para 2 describes an early model of a design discussed in para 3.B. Para 3 argues about the effectiveness of the technique from para 2.C. Para 3 introduces a different strategy than the one discussed in para 2.D. Para 2 explains a technique, and para 3 gives examples of how it is used.【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. C第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分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佳选项。

The Penn colleagues and other community members meet three days a week for a roughly 30-minute jog and an occasional lecture. That’s right—during some runs, one of them delivers a talk. Topics range from the brain to Bitcoin.But on this day last January, it would not be their normal run. The first clue that something was off was the man who sprinted past them. “Running at an amazing pace,” Cassidy told Runner’s World admiringly. Cassidy discovered why the sprinter was so fleet of foot when another man ran by, yelling, “Help! He took my phone and laptop!”At that, the group did what running clubs do: They ran, trailing the suspect down the streets of Philadelphia until he ducked into a construction site. The runners split up. Cassidy ran around to the far side of the site to cut the thief off while the others wandered the neighborhood hoping he had dumped the loot (赃物) in a backyard.No luck. So they decided to ask residents whether they’d seen the guy. When the y knocked on the door of one row house, they were in for a surprise. Unknown to them, he had already emerged from the construction site—and was hiding behind a bush by that very house. As the owner opened the door, the suspect darted out from behind the bu sh … and right into the arms of campus police, who’d joined the chase shortly behind the runners.The members of this running group are not hard-core athletes. But they do understand the benefit of a little exercise. “Running is typically a useless sport w here you turn fat cells into heat,” Cassidy told The Philadelphia Inquirer. “But occasionally it can be useful, and here was one of those opportunities.”24. Why do the group members gather together?A. To do some stretching.B. To have a regular run.C. To deliver a lecture.D. To cover some topics.25. What does the underlined word “sprinted” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A. Dashed.B. Pushed.C. Jumped.D. Escaped.26. We can infer that the success of the chase is mainly due to _______.A. the assistance of the runnersB. the owner of the row houseC. the campus police on patrolD. the joint efforts of the people27. Which of the following best describes Cassidy?A. Athletic and generous.B. Courageous and ambitious.C. Helpful and humorous.D. Thoughtful and demanding.CFood experts say washing could spread the germs on your turkey in the kitchen sink or nearby food. But it’s been a challenge trying to convince cooks to stop rinsing(冲洗) off raw poultry. Germs that can make people sick are common in the guts of healthy poultry and are legally allowed to be on raw turkey and chicken. The assumption is that nobody eats their poultry raw, and that thorough cooking will kill the bacteria.The do-not-wash raw poultry advice from the USDA is relatively new and perhaps hasn’t caught on because it goes against the common belief that washing makes things clean, said Chapman. Benjamin Chapman, a study author and food safety expert at North Carolina State University, said the instinct to wash raw poultry goes back at least decades when people relied more on visual clues to spot problems with poultry. Meanwhile, washing hands and surfaces are also important.But food preparation is a complicated act, and germs from poultry can be spread even if it’s not washed, especially when birds are removed from packaging.The USDA-funded study stresses that point. Researchers sprayed raw chicken with a harmless strain of E. coli(大肠杆菌) and watched volunteer cooks at test kitchens. Among those who washed their raw chicken, about a quarter ended up spreading the bacteria to their lettuce. But even some of those who did not rinse the chicken got germs on the lettuce. And there are other opportunities for germs to survive on turkeys: melting and cooking.To ensure a bird is thoroughly cooked, they say to use a thermometer to check that the deepest and thickest parts of it have reached 165 degrees. Even after the meal is cooked, you aren’t out of the danger zone. To keep turkeys and other leftove rs safe, experts say they should be refrigerated after two hours.28. People don’t accept USDA’s advice because _______.A. the advice is relatively newB. cleaning seems more trustworthyC. cooks clean the turkey before cooking itD. heat can kill most germs and no one eats raw food29. What can be concluded from Paragraph 4?A. Food packages carry germs.B. Hands and surfaces are easy to get E. coli.C. Germs from a turkey can be spread whether it is washed or not.D. Multiple methods should be applied to food to get rid of germs.30. Which way may help to cook a turkey safely?A. Rinse off the turkey before it is heated.B. Keep the turkey away from the lettuce and refrigerator.C. Wash hands and packages before taking out the turkey.D. Use a thermometer to check the temperature of the turkey.31.

All three of us were critically injured. Stacey’s brain in jury was the most severe. Despite all attempts to save her, she died two days later. When I became conscious, I heard my husband talking to the organ donor coordinator（器官捐助协调员）.We knew that Stacey would want that because that’s the kind of person she was. She always wanted to assist people. She was always smiling and brought so much joy to others. She was friendly and enjoyed writing stories and poetry.It has been a comfort to know that Stacey lives on in the lives of others. I have even met the family of one of Stacey’s kidney recipients(接受人). This little girl was 6 years old at the time of the transplant. She was suffering from Nephrotic Syndrome. I saw pictures showing the effects of the Nephrotic Syndrome and the pictures of her after the transplant. They already showed an amazing difference. We correspond every year through letters, cards and pictures. The girl is doing really well at school and will be graduating from high school next year. I am so grateful that we have this relationship. I also feel relieved that my daughter has made so great a difference to a person’s life.Over the years, I have had some kind of contact with all of the recipients except the heart recipient. I’m very sorry for that. I would love to hear something from the heart recipient’s family. There are so many things that I wonder about her. I wonder if she is anything like Stacey. Does she smile all the time? Does she enjoy writing stories and poetry? I do hope that they can contact us!I feel guilty because I was the one driving in the accident which caused Stacey’s death. I also feel proud that my daughter has helped so many people.4. When did Stacey die from the traffic accident?A. On May 28th, 1998B. On May 29th, 1998C. On May 31st, 1998D. On May 30th, 19985.

B ut here’s a tip: Y ou’d be wise not to expect much gratitude from them for what they receive.Gratitude can make us happier, healthier, and even fitter. But do the kids show their gratitude for the stuff we buy them? All the research I’ve done has convinced me that it won’t happen. One mom told me that when she asked her 16-year-old son to thank her for buying him a cellphone, he said, “But that’s what moms should do.” From a teenager’s angle, it’s a parent’s responsibility to take care of the family. Accord ing to Dunham, Yale’s assistant professor o f psychology, “When teenagers code it that way, a gift is no longer something given freely and voluntarily”—it’s just mom and dad living up to their obligation.Parents do have the right to demand good manners and children should thank sincerely whoever gives them something. But kids can’t know how blessed they are unless they have a basis for comparison. And they don’t learn that by a parent complaining that they’re ungrateful. We need to give our children the g ift of a wider world view. Show by example that gratitude isn’t about stuff—which ultimately can’t make any of us happy anyway. It’s about realizing how lucky you are and paying your good fortune forward.You can collect all the charitable appeals and sit down together with the kids to go through them. You set the budget for giving and the kids decide how it’s distributed. Once the conversation about gratitude gets started, it’s much easier to continue all year. Also you can set up a family routine at bedtime where kids describe three things that have made them grateful. When kids go off to college, you can text them a picture each week of something that inspires your appreciation.Teaching children to focus on the positive and appreciate the good in their lives is perhaps the greatest gift we can give them. And we can all learn together that the things that really matter aren’t on sale at a department store.8. How do children respond when receiving gifts from their parents?A.

It is easy for parents to start the conversation about gratitude.11. What’s the purpose of the author writing this text?A. To explain the reason why children offer no gratitude to their parents.B. To give advice to parents on how to help children develop gratitude.C. To encourage parents to do things together with their children.D. To remind parents of their responsibility to educate their children.DPeople with an impulsive personality refer to those who tend to do things without considering the possible dangers or problems first. According to a new study by researchers at the University of Georgia, such people may be more likely to have food addiction. The study found that people exhibiting impulsive behavior weren’t necessarily overweight, but impulsiveness was related to a direct relationship with food, and therefore, less healthy weight.Food addiction has been compared to addictive drug use. Studies have linked the dopamine (多巴胺) release that occurs after tasting delicious food to the dopamine release that happens when people consume other addicti ve substances.Impulsive behavior involves several personality traits (特点). Two of these traits, known as negative urgency and lac k of perseverance, were particularly associated with food addiction and high BMI (身体质量指数) during the study.Negative urgency is characterized by the tendency to behave impulsively when experiencing negative emotions. Some people might drink alcohol or take drugs. For others, it could mean eating to feel better. Lack of perseverance is when a person has a hard time finishing hard or boring tasks. People with a lack of perseverance might have difficulty attempting to change addictive eating behavior, which could also cause obesity.“Impulsi veness might be one reason why some people eat in an addictive way despite motivation to lose weight,” said Dr. Ashley Gearhardt, a clinical psychologist. He was involved in developing the Yale Food Addiction Scale in aid of those people. “We are theorizing that if food addiction is really a thing, then our measure, the Yale Food Addiction Scale, should be related to helping control impulsive action,” said Gearhardt.Clinical psychologist Dr. James MacKillop, whose lab was conducting the study, believes that therapies used to treat addictive drug behavior could help people who suffer from addictive eating habits.“Most of the programs for weight loss at this point focus on the most obvious things, which are clearly diet and exercise,” MacKillop said. “It seems that managing strong desires to eat would naturally fit in with the skills a person would need to eat healthily.”12. According to Paragraph 1, the result of food addiction is ________.A. less healthy weightB. motivation to lose weightC. negative emotionsD. taking alcohol or drugs13. How does the author introduce the two personality traits in Paragraph 4?A. By making comparisons and conclusions.B. By explaining causes and effects.C. By presenting questions and answers.D. By giving definitions and examples.14. What can be inferred about the Yale Food Addiction Scale from the text?A. It has been successfully carried out among overweight people.B. It might help some impulsive people with food addiction to lose weight.C. It will prove whether food addiction is a problem to impulsive people.D. It is theoretically a proper treatment for addictive food and drug behavior.15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A. Dopamine release caused by food addictionB. Food addiction compared t o drug useC. Impulsive personality linked to food additionD. Food addiction contributing to obesity第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分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佳选项。
