Our class had planted a large garden in what was once only a vacant lot. It was a lot of work but it was all worth it. 1 got blisters (水泡) from digging, and we all got insect bites, too.I learned a lot about gardening and collaboration (合作), and then I learned about the media. Our teacher telephoned the TV station and informed them of what we had accomplished. She spoke with the producer. The producer checked with the directors, but they said there were plenty of stories similar to ours. They wanted to know what was special about our particular garden, since many schools plant them.The teacher explained that, after going on the Internet to learn about the prairie (大草原), we had made a prairie garden. We had gone to a prairie and gotten seeds from the plants, and then we planted them. We did not water the garden, but we did weed it We decided to let nature water it with rain, since that was how prairies grew in the past. We sent a picture of the garden to the news station. In the picture, the grass was so high that it stood taller than the fourth grade students.As a result, the producer sent a reporter to our school. He interviewed the headmaster and asked him many questions about the garden. After that, they interviewed us, and we explained to them what we had learned through this project.That night, we watched the news, and there we were. The news reporter told our story. It was only two minutes long, but it was us. We were famous. All that work, all those blisters, it was worth it. We knew that when we saw the garden every day, but now we knew that the whole city thought so, too.4.What seemed to be the TV directors' initial reaction to the garden?A. They were excited.B. They were surprised.C. They were worried.D. They were uninterested.5.What is special about the garden?A.Weeds were allowed to spread naturally.B.The grass grew faster than common grass.C.The seeds came from the plants of a prairie.D.Underground water was used for the plants.6.What does the underlined word“that" refer to in the last paragraph?A. We got blisters on our hands.B. Our hard work was worthwhile.C. The garden would be famous.D. The project would be finished.7.How did the author feel about the project?A. Annoyed.B. Curious.C. Proud.D. Regretful.CHeads up! Across the country, sports injuries are a safety concern for young athletes. Now, the American Medical Association (AMA) has a new set of guidelines aimed at protecting players from the danger of concussions - serious injuries caused by a blow to the head.“ By raising awareness of the serious risks associated with concussions and ensuring that the appropriate guidelines are in place, we can reduce the number of young athletes who may return to the game too soon, which can. put their health at further risk," said AMA BoardMember Jack Resneck Jr, M.D., in a statement.The policy recommends that young athletes who may have a concussion be taken off the field as soon as possible. Then, they are only to return to their sport with a doctor's written approval. The policy also sets age-specific rules for health care professionals and athletic organizations in evaluating and caring for concussions.According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), a concussion is a type of traumatic (创伤) brain injury caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head or hit to the body that causes the head and brain to move rapidly back and forth. This type of movement can cause the brain to bounce around or twist inside the skull ( 颅骨). It can damage brain cells and create chemical changes in the brain.The CDC says that between 1.6 million and 3.8 million traumatic brain injuries caused by sports and recreation-related activities occur in the U.S. every year. A study from the Center for Injury Research and Policy showed that as many as 40% of high school athletes return to playing before they should. The AMA'S new guidelines should help to bring those numbers down.8.Why does the AMA set the new guidelines?A.To raise safety standards of sports.B.To protect athletes from concussions.C.To set rules for health care evaluation.D.To help players return to the game quickly.9.What should young athletes who may have a concussion do?A. Avoid using the head.B. Leave the field forever.C. Get treatment in time.D. Switch to another sport.10.What is paragraph 4 mainly about?A. What a concussion is.B. What causes damage to brain cells.C. How the CDC works.D. How a concussion can be prevented.11.Which of the following is the best title for the text?A. Rules for Safer PlayB. Sports Injuries in the USC. Advice to AthletesD. New Policies for DoctorsDOrganic food is very popular. It is also expensive. Some organic food costs twice as much as non-organic food, but new parents and pet owners are willing to pay up to 200% more for organic food. However, there are people who think it is a waste of money.There is one main difference between organic and non-organic food. Organic farms do not use agricultural chemicals, such as pesticides ( 杀虫剂). In many countries organic foods have special labels. These guarantee that the products are natural.Some people think organic means locally grown. Originally this was true. Over time organic farming became more difficult. The demand for organic food grew larger than the supply. Small companies had to sell out to large companies. There weren't enough organic ingredients (原料), such as grain and cattle. This made it difficult for many organic companies to stay in business. Today, many large companies have an organic line of products.Is organic food more nutritious? This is part of the debate. Many farmers and consumersbelieve it is. They think agricultural chemicals cause health problems such as cancer. Many health professionals disagree. Few studies prove that organic foods prevent health problems. Health specialists worry more about bacteria ( 病毒), such as E.coli and salmonella. These can get into contact with organic and non- organic food. Doctors recommend washing produce very carefully. Handling meat carefully is important too.Most people agree that naturally grown food tastes better. Is tastier food worth the extra money? This is a matter of opinion. Whether it is healthier or not may require more research. However, organic consumers argue it is better to be safe than sorry.12.What is probably the major concern of organic food consumers?A. Price.B. Safety.C. Freshness.D. Variety.13.What is the doctors' suggestion?A. Grow your own food.B. Reduce the use of pesticides.C. Make sure the food is clean.D. Buy large companies' products.14.Which of the following do most people agree on organic food?A. It tastes better.B. It is easier to grow.C. It contains more fat.D. It is more nutritious.15.Where does this text probably come from?A. A recipe book.B. A chemistry paper.C. A medical report.D. A health magazine.第二节(共5 小题:每小题2.5 分,满分12.5 分)由水浒教育老师整理提供!阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

AMarineLand Theme ParkWith numerous rides,a variety of wildlife from both land and sea and shows filled with action-packed excitement,no wonder it’s a hit with visitors from all over the world.Whether riding on the world’s biggest steel roller coaster,Dragon Mountain,or enjoying a show filled with fun-loving dolphins and intelligent whales,you’re sure to have the time of your life at MarineLand.Having been in business for more than 50 years,this park has something for every member of the family!Highlights&Attractions:The King Waldorf Stadium Show:This entertaining,educational and heart-warming show features dolphins,white whales,sea lions,and walruses and is sure to leave you in awe as well as help you understand and appreciate these wonderful marine mammals(海洋哺乳动物).Arctic Cove:It featuring one of the largest white whale collections in the world,visitors are able to purchase a pass to Arctic Cove where they can touch andfeed the whales as well as view them underwater.Friendship Cove:Breathtaking underwater viewing allows you to enter the magic world of the killer whale below the water surface or on a surface level walkwav.Hotels:Villager Lodge:It is located in Niagara Falls,Ontario.Diplomat Inn:Within half a mile of the Skylon Tower,it is the choice for an inexpensive location.Marriott Niagara Falls Fallsview Hotel&Spa:It is close to popular attractions and the Scotiabank Convention Center.Days Inn Lundy’s Lane:It is located just two miles from the gorgeous Niagara Falls and the Skylon Tower Observation Deck.Hours of Operation:10:00 am-5:00 pm(Sept.11th—Oct.13th)Phone:417—823—09811.What can be learned about MarineLand Theme Park?A.It is only suitable for kids.B.It was opened fifty years ago.C.It has both 1and and marine animals.D.It has the world’s biggest roller coaster.2.What is special about Arctic Cove?A.It has the largest white whale collection in the world.B.It allows visitors to enter the magic world of the killer whale.C.It features an entertaining show starring various marine mammals.D.It provides visitors with a chance to interact with white whales personally.3.Which hotel suits you best if you have a tight budget?A.Diplomat Inn.B.Villager Lodge.C.Days Inn Lundy’s Lane.D.Marriott Niagara Fails Fallsview Hotel&Spa.BA few weeks ago,I bought a locally-grown salad from a vending machine(自动售货机).But then I immediately realized that it was packaged in a plastic jar.“I guess I live with this jar now and forever.”I thought sadly as I stared down at my new child.The salad jar was only the latest in a long line of examples of how I am addicted to the responsibility of reusing everything,trying to never throw anything away.Water bottles have been given second lives,and berry containers are transformed into Tupperware.I recently even looked at a plastic straw in my fruit juice:Could I reuse it too…?Yet trying to squeeze my salad jar under my kitchen counter this weekend,I finally had to admit:Being an environmentalist has turned me into a hoarder(囤积者).While keeping a certain number of jars and vegetable bags will allow me not to buy new containers,at a certain point those 30 berry containers begin to get a bit unnecessary.Who am I kidding?Then one day I came across a blog post that asks accusingly.“Are you turning your own home into a landfill(垃圾填埋场)?”In my defense,there is absolutely no excuse not to be a conscious consumer.The solution is painfully obvious,but hard to admit:Delaying waste is not,in fact,rejecting waste.In an over-packaged,over-consuming culture,this can feel like a burden.While I refuse to throw away packaging,the fact remains:I already have it.The damage is done.I’ve been ignoring one of the most essential and difficult parts—reduce,reuse,recycle.Even if I go out of my way to reuse the waste I do have,I need to reduce what I am bringing home in the first place.While I might not be ready to go full zero-waste,it’s a goal that is admirable to work toward.Until then,my salad jar child is going to make a great overnight oats jar.4.What does the author try to indicate by the last sentence in paragraph 2 ? A.How important reusing is.B.How enthusiastic she is about reusing.C.How she makes use of the plastic straw.D.Why she is responsible for reusing plastic straws.5.Why does the author say she has turned into a hoarder?A.She enjoys collecting a variety of small jars.B.She has saved far more containers than she needs.C.She likes the idea of saving fine packages in daily life.D.She stores more berry containers than other containers.6.What does the underlined word“this”in paragraph 4 refer to?A.Over-packaging.B.Delaying waste.C.Over-consuming.D.Rejecting waste.7.The author realizes at last that she should___________.A.buy fewer over-packaged goodsB.throw away unnecessary packagingC.reuse materials as much as possibleD.appreciate the value of recycling materialsCIt is common for adults to use“baby talk”when interacting with babies.This way of speaking attempts to imitate the sounds babies make when they first try to talk.But is this form of communication helpful to a child’s development?Several studies have suggested a clear link between parental language methods and a child’s early language development.Studies showed that language learning in babies was improved when parents spoke more than a few simple words and used a wider vocabulary.Earlier research found that the style of speech used by parents to communicate with their baby could have an influence on language development.One such speaking style is known as“parentese”.Research has shown that babies react better to this kind of language in the first months of life.Generally,parentese involves adults speaking in a higher voice and at a slower speed.The language is simplified,while sentences are short and often repeated.Studies from the past 30 years have confirmed that babies spoken to in parentese developed larger vocabularies throughout the first three years of life.A new study on the subject,a project of the University of Washington’s Institute for Learning & Brain Sciences,examined whether parents can be effectively taught methods to improve their parentese skills.Naj a Ferjan Ramírez.working in the Institute for Learning&Brain Sciences,said that the parents involved in the research were first shown the importance of language input for their baby’s development.Parents were then given suggestions on how to use different parentese methods,and then rated on how well they used these methods with their child.She added that the new study is important because there are still a 1ot of parents with little knowledge about how to use parentese to help their child.This was one reason the researchers included parents from different cultural and economic groupings.8.How do parents usually talk with their babies?A.By speaking in a funny style.B.By copying babies’sounds.C.By raising speaking speed.D.By whispering in babies’ears.9.What can we learn from the second paragraph?A.Babies’language skills are decided by talent.B.Babies’language is improved by simple words.C.Parental language style helps improve babies’behavior.D.Parental language methods affect babies’language development.10.Where can you find how parents were trained in parentese skills?A.In paragraph 2.B.In paragraph 3.C.In paragraph 4.D.In paragraph 5.11.What can be the best title for the text?A.Communicating with babies matters moreB.Parentese is a good way to practice languageC.The more parents help,the better babies 1earnD.Speaking parentese helps with babies’language learningDGwheezie,a nurse,wrote about her heart attack symptoms on social media.“Last Sunday I had a heart attack.I’m alive because I called 911.I never had chest pain.It wasn’t what you read in brochures.”Gwheezie pointed out that she recently helped her neighbor clean out the garden and actually thought it was muscle strain(扭伤).The pain ran across her upper back,shoulders and equaly down both arms.“I’d just written it off because it wasn’t really bad,”Gwheezie said.She even drove six hours to help her mother the day before the actual attack came.However,she almost died because she didn’t call it“chest pain”.“I was lucky,”she wrote.“And I wanted to warn women our heart attacks feel different.”“Pain that comes and goes seems like a surprising symptom,but it’s actually common for heart disease,”women’s health expert,Jennifer Haythe says.“Some women will experience chest pain,but it may feel different than the typical ‘crushing pain(压迫性疼痛)’men will describe.Other women won’t have chest pain at all,which can be deadly.”Sanjiv Patel,MD,says.“Women are far morelikely to develop untypical symptoms for a heart attack,including indigestion,shortness of breath,tiredness,and arm,neck and back pain,etc.”But there are ways to distinguish if the pain is heart-related.“If you have pain and it gets worse when you exhaust yourself,that’s more likely to be a sign,”Patel says.“If you have pain and difficulty breathing when you’re sitting and watching TV,you get up and walk around and it goes away,the pain is probably not related to your heart.Moreover,if it comes back the next day for a longer period of time.you’11 want to see a doctor.”“Any new symptom that doesn’t feel quite right calls for an immediate call or visit to your doctor,”Haythe says.“Take your body seriously.It’s usually telling you something.”12.Why did Gwheezie post her heart attack symptoms on social media?A.To raise some money.B.To record the process.C.To inform other women.D.To share her lucky story.13.What does the underlined phrase“written it off”in paragraph 2 probably mean? A.Ignored it.B.Recorded it.C.Treated it.D.Discovered it.14.What do Jennifer Haythe’s words indicate?A.Pain is a fairly rare symptom for heart disease.B.Chest pain may be a good thing for heart disease.C.Women are far more likely to die of heart disease.D.Men have more chest pain symptoms than women.15.How can we distinguish heart-related pain?A.Ftom the breath and sleep.B.Ftom the position and frequency.C.From the tiredness and heart beats.D.From the degree and length.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

AThese are the Nicest Places in America, from tiny Hayesville, North Carolina to the city of Providence, Rhode Island. You really can find kindness all over the U. S.Yassin ' s Falafel House in Knoxville. TennesseeYassin Terou, who came to Knoxville in 2011, is a well-known local person. His falafel house won the Nicest Places in America contest in 2018 because it serves as a welcoming and safe place for people of every culture who are in trouble. Even though some people don't accept him for who he is, Yassin likes to give everyone a chance because he was given a chance to realize his American dream. Katy, TexasIn 2017, Katy, Texas was hit hard by Hurricane Harvey. About 700 homes and 80 businesses were destroyed or damaged in the small town. Soon after it, local people and businesses immediately helped their neighbors recover.Kalamazoo, MichiganStudent loan debt (学生借贷) is an ever-present case for students looking to go on their education, but in Kalamazoo, it's not a problem. An organization funded by anonymous (匿名的) people called The Kalamazoo Promise pays for any student that attends Kalamazoo public schools to go to college. This town ' s amazing promise is keeping hope alive. Enoch Pratt Library in Baltimore, MarylandEnoch Pratt isn't your typical library, it's more of a community service center. In a city with high crime, it offers help to people that get in trouble with the law. Volunteers, including local lawyers doing work without getting paid, serve hundreds of people every week. This library is writing a new chapter (篇章) for Baltimore.21. We learn from Paragraph 3 that Katy ___ .A. was completely destroyedB. lived through the storm safelyC. was recovered with anonymous people's helpD. was rebuilt by local people and businesses22. What gives Baltimore a new look?A. Enoch PrattB. V oluntary workC. The effect of law.D. Community service23. The Nicest Places in America are all ___ .A. related with disastersB. full of kindnessC. about the American dreamD. of the social public serviceBI wanted to lose some weight, and I also hoped to explore the countryside. So I agreed to join a local group of walkers around Aix-en-Provence called the International Hiking Club of Provence.Exercising in the gym was a dull choice in this beautiful place, and when the wind started to blow and the water temperature dropped suddenly, the romantic idea of an everyday sea swim would disappear in my mind. Luckily, that didn't happen very often.From time to time, the group organized imaginative hikes in the countryside around Aix---Mont St Victoire, The Luberon, The Calanques, The Durance valley and other places. The journey would be tough and tiring, and you need a good pair of walking shoes. At the same time, you also need an appetite (胃口) for amazing beauties and hearty conversations with local people and foreigners.My first walk led me down the side of a cliff (悬崖) to the Calanque of Sugiton. Those sea cliffs are the highest in France. It was a great challenge for legs and afterwards, I would enjoy a treat---a refreshing sea swim. Magic! Just our little group and a few locals shared the experience together.In another hike in Provence, the good smell of wild flowers led me up a local mountain in the Luberon.Lost in those beautiful flowers and the relaxing smell, I didn't even notice my tiredness. What a simple pleasure and treat for the senses!In Provence, there are hundreds of ways to explore through woods, valleys, and quiet meadows (草地). Mont Ventoux---the largest mountain in the region is the next goal on my list. A friend goes there regularly by bike and loves it.My hiking experiences inspired the kids to try. They walked up Mont St Victoire and down a Calanque. They complained sometimes, but they also laughed a lot. And they couldn't wait to tell their friends about the experience.24. Why did the author join the group?A. To meet some new walkers.B. To swim in the sea with some friends.C. To learn how to lose some weight from others.D. To lose some weight and enjoy the countryside.25. Which of the following did the author do during her stay around Aix-en-provence?A. She swam in the sea every day.B. She exercised in the gym with others.C. She climbed mountains and went down cliffs.D. She worked as a guide to show foreigners around.26. What did the kids most probably think of walking up Mont St Victoire?A. Difficult but fun.B. Boring and tiring.C. Hard but meaningful.D. Relaxing and interesting.27. What would be the best title for the text?A. A Special Hiking Group in ProvenceB. The Joy of Hiking in ProvenceC. Some Attractions in Provence.D. A Trip to Provence with KidsCI ' ve been trying to write a journal about my visit to LEGO Movie World with my family. Now it is! It's 2019 and wevisited Legoland during our spring break. Since we only had five hours, we decided hitting our favorite places would be thefirst step of the tour.We really enjoyed our time in LEGO Movie World. If you haven't been there, I recommend it to you. There are somefantastic rides that you shouldn't miss.Ride 1: Unikitty's Disco Drop. Immediately to the left of the LEGO Movie World entrance, you can find Unikitty's DiscoDrop. Similar to the Beetle Bounce, this ride adds another touch of fun. As you move up and down the tower, the ride alsorotates (旋转)! The area is enjoyable as well, with all the crazy Unikitty color mixtures present.Ride 2: Masters of Flight. To the right of Unikitty's Disco Drop, there is a huge structure (建筑物). Ifyou've seen The LEGO Movie , you'll recognize this structure as The Dog Cloud Cuckoo Land, where all the Master Buildersmeet.To get inside, you 'Il have to make your way around a maze (迷宫) to wait for your turn but LEGO does a great job tooffer you amusement a while you wait. You'll be greeted by some great structures and provided with a wall to leave yourmark on.Once finally inside the structure, you'll find the Masters of Flight ride. It begins as the seats rotate around and you will findyourself as part of the Emmet's Triple---Decker Couch Mech! While you experience THELEGO MOVIE 2: The Second Part, get ready to feel like you're flying! You'll smell pine trees, the ocean, cotton candy andmore! It was certainly my favorite of all the new rides.At the end of the day, I felt Merlin Entertainment did an excellent job in repurposing this area to fit their idea of the LEGOMovie World. It looks fantastic. We are looking forward to coming back to this world.28. When the authors family experienced Unikitty's Disco Drop, ____ .A. they preferred it to the Beetle BounceB. they had to get through the maze firstC. they found the mixed colors unbeautifulD. they saw the ride rotate29. What can we learn about Masters of Flight?A. People give it high praise.B. People can enjoy flying in it.C. People have to line up to experience it.D. People find it boring to wait in the maze.30. What did the author think of LEGO Movie World?A. Satisfying.B. Boring.C. Time-wasting.D. Disappointing.31. What is the text mainly about?A. The author ' s favorite rides.B. The visit to LEGO Movie World.C. The excellent Merlin Entertainment.D. The review of THE LEGO MOVIE 2: The Second Part.DWhen snack-food businessmen started selling fat-free products back in the 80s, they really achieved success.Consumers were interested in avoiding fat because it caused heart problems and made them fat. So the nonfat foods were adieter's dream! Fat-free chips and dairy products flew off the shelves. However, as it turned out, not many people becameslim and healthy from going on fat-free diets. In fact, not eating fat seemed to cause more health problems instead.There are many naturally fat- free foods. Fruits and vegetables are on the top of the list. They' relow in calories ( 卡路里 ) and are filled with beneficial vitamins ( 有益的维生素 ). That ' s not the case with processed fat-free food.The problem with fat-free packaged food is that fat makes food taste good. With all the fat taken away, it tastes like cardboard. So, the producers have to add into all kinds of things to keep the taste ---like sugar, salt and artificial flavors ( 人造香精 ) Therefore, processed fat-free foods can actually end up containing more calories than the full- fat foods. Fruit canbe high in calories and sugar, too, but you nutrients (营养物 ) along with it. Processed fat- free foods don 't have a olotht eorf things.We know now that all fat is not evil. Fat helps control your nervous system and encourages bone health. Fat-free salad can actually make you lose your ability to process all the good nutrients in it.When you buy a fat-free product in the store, take a second to check the nutrient information on the package. If it contains sugar, salt or artificial favors --- or has more calories than the full-fat version---put it back on the shelf. Most of the time, you ' d be better -ef a tt ivnegr sthioen f,u wllhich tastes better and will satisfy you sooner---as long as you don't eat the whole box! 32. What is the difference between processed fat-free products and naturally fat-free foods? A. Naturally fat-free foods easily make people fat.B. Processed fat-free foods are usually low in calories.C. Processed fat-free foods are usually rich in vitamins.D. Naturally fat-free foods usually contain beneficial vitamins.33. What is the problem of fat-free packaged food mentioned in Paragraph 3?B. It has too few types.D. It tastes bad without other things added into it.“ evil ” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?C. Harmful.D. Dangerous.35. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. How to choose food wisely. B. How to live on a healthy diet.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。

ACities all over the world celebrate Christmas in unique and memorable ways. The following international destinations are just a few of the countless choices to consider.Quebec cityQuebec city has long drawn admirers to its historic district the famed city wall, strange cobblestone lanes(鹅卵石小路)and handsome stone houses. This area transforms into a scenic Christmas village each December. The 403-year-old capital of Quebec province takes pride in the outdoors at Christmas time, when stone buildings shine with lights. Consider cross-country ski on the Plains of Abraham, or skate at the place D’ Youville square.EdinburghEdinburgh, a magic city full of staircases and hills as well as Georgian and neo-Classical buildings, is famous for its mixture of the modern and the old. This is evident in winter, when Scotland’s capital puts on a six-week festival lasting until Jan. 6 that goes way beyond Christmas markets. You can ride roller coasters, climb a wall of ice and attend a vivid Christmas themed show by the cabaret troupe(剧团)La Clique. ZurichIf buying gifts is on your travel schedule, Zurich is an impressive shopping center, particularly around the holidays, from multiple Christmas markets and the luxury(奢侈品)dress shops of Bahnhofstrasse Street, to the independent designers and antique shops in the merging industrial zones. Another annual lighting spectacle(壮观场面), Lichterschwimmen, on Dec. 21, includes hundreds of tiny lanterns that are sent floating down the River Limmat.SydneyA lack of snow does not dampen the Christmas spirit in Sydney. One great and free way to feel the holiday is to take this Dec. 21 walking tour of George Street, which promises “the most sharable window displays and coloured lights.” One advantage over other destinations: warm, sandy beaches that lie just minutes from downtown, where the natural beauty of Australia’s most popular city will be waiting.1.What can you do in Quebec city during Christmas?A.Ride roller coasters.B.Take part in a walking tour.C.Enjoy cross-country ski.D.Watch a Christmas-themed show.2.Where should you go if you want to enjoy a Christmas without snow?A.Quebec city. B.Edinburgh.C.Zurich. D.Sydney.3.Where is this text most likely from?A.A guidebook. B.A diary.C.A novel. D.A research paper.BWe’ve known that sitting for long periods of time every day has countless health consequences, like a higher risk of heart disease. But now a new study has found that sitting is also bad for your brain.A study published last week, conducted by Dr. Prabha Siddarth at the University of California, showed that sedentary(久坐的)behavior is associated with reduced thickness of the medial temporal lobe(中颞叶), a brain area that is critical to learning and memory.The researchers asked a group of 35 healthy people, ages 45 to 70, about their activity levels and the average number of hours each day spent sitting and then scanned their brains. They found that the subjects who reported sitting for longer periods had the thinnest medial temporal lobes. It means that the more time you spend in a chair the worse it is for your brain health, resulting in possible damage to learning and memory.What is also interesting is that this study did not find a significant association between the level of physical activity and thickness of this brain area, suggesting that exercise, even severe exercise, may not be enough to protect you from the harmful effects of sitting.It then surprisingly turned out that you don’t even have to move much to enhance cognition(认知); just standing will do the trick. For example, two groups of subjects were asked to complete a test while either sitting or standing. Participants are presented with conflicting stimuli(刺激), like the word “green” in blue ink, and asked to name the color. Subjects thinking on their feet beat those who sat by a 3-milicond margin.The cognitive effects of severe physical exercise are well known. But the possibility that standing more and sitting less improves brain health could lower the bar for everyone.I know, this all runs counter to received ideas about deep thought, from our grade school teachers, who told us to sit down and focus, to Rodin’s famous “Thinker,” seated with chin on hand.They were wrong. You can now all stand up.4.What can we infer from Paragraphs 3 and 4?A.Severe exercise can lessen the damage of sitting.B.Severe exercise can greatly improve our brain health.C.Sedentary behavior will possibly damage our brain.D.Brain health has nothing to do with sedentary behavior.5.What does the underlined word “margin” in Paragraph 5 mean?A.blank. B.edge.C.decrease. D.difference.6.What is the received idea about deep thought?A.Sitting more is good for our mental health.B.Sitting is better when we think.C.Exercise more can improve our cognition.D.We should stand while thinking.7.The passage mainly tells us ________.A.people tend to sit while thinkingB.standing more can make our brain healthierC.physical exercise can improve our brain healthD.sedentary behavior leads to countless health problemsCThroughout history, music spread among people of different cultures. In today's technological advanced society, however, people spread music online, sometimes without an artist's permission. This can lead to many problems, and music companies are now cracking down on this practice. Sharing music online without permission is theft.Sharing music online prevents recording companies from making money from their efforts. They say that sharing music online has resulted in a huge drop in profits and sales over the past 10 years. People who find music for free online are not paying for CDs or every MP3 downloaded. To truly understand the influence of music piracy on creators, one must understand how many people are involved in the recording process. For the sale of each album, profits must be shared between musicians, sound engineers, music producers, managers, advertisers, and the company selling the product. Many people believe sharing music only affects the recording artist, but the reality is that sharing hurts business for all companies involved.There are many people who don't see the harm in sharing music online and even think they have the right to do it. One online blogger states that he originally paid for an entire CD and that he should be able to do with the material whatever he wants. While he may have legally paid for the music, he does not have the right to provide permission, which means people like the blogger are thieves.Although we don't spread today's music the same way we did before, there's no doubt that people around the world love to share music. However, internet piracy would prevent musicians from continuing producing albums for fear of theft. Therefore, if people want to continue listening to their favorite artists, they need to buy their music so that artists will make enough profit to continue their music careers. 8.The underlined phrase “cracking down on” in paragraph 1 is c losest in meaning to ______. A.bringing up carefully B.speaking highly ofC.dealing seriously with D.destroying completely9.We can learn from the text that ________.A.sharing music files online affects a lot of peopleB.artists are taking action to protect their rightC.online music sharing increases sales of music CDD.a person who bought a CD has the right to share it online with others10.How is the text organized?A.Topic-Argument-Explanation.B.Introduction-Supporting statements-Conclusion.C.Main idea-Comparison-Supporting statements.D.Opinion-Discussion-Description.11.What is the author’s attitude toward music piracy?A.Indifferent. B.Favorable. C.Disapproval. D.Skeptical.DA team of engineers at Harvard University has been inspired by Nature to create the first robotic fly. The mechanical fly has become a platform for a series of new high-tech integrated systems. Designed to do what a fly does naturally, the tiny machine is the size of a fat housefly. Its mini wings allow it to stay in the air and perform controlled flight tasks.“It’s extremely important for us to think about this as a whole system and not just the sum of a bunch of individual components,” said Robert Wood, the Harvard engineering professor who has been working on the robotic fly project for over a decade. A few years ago, his team got the go-ahead to start piecing together the components. “The added difficulty with a project like this is that actually none of those components are off the shelf and so we have to develop them all on our own,” he said.They engineered a series of systems to start and drive the robotic fly. “The seemingly simple system which just moves the wings has a number of interdependencies on the individual components, each of which individually has to perform well, but then has to be matched well to everything it’s connected to,” said Wood. The flight device was built into a set of power, computation, sensing and control systems. Wood says the success of the project proves that the flying robot with these tiny components can be built and manufactured.While this first robotic flyer is linked to a small, off-board power source, the goal is eventually to equip it with a built-in power source, so that it might someday perform data-gathering work at rescue sites, i n farmers’ fields or on the battlefield. “Basically, it should be able to take off, land and fly around,” he said.Wood says the design offers a new way to study flight mechanics and control at insect-scale. Yet, the power, sensing and computation technolo gies on board could have much broader applications. “You can start thinking about using them to answer open scientific questions, you know, to study biology in ways that would be difficult with the animals, but using these robots instead,” he said. “So the re are a lot of technologies and open interesting scientific questions that are really what drives us on a day to day basis.”12.Which of the following statements was the difficulty engineers met while making the robotic fly? A.They did not have sufficient fund.B.No ready-made components were available.C.There was no model in their mind.D.It was hard for them to assemble the components.13.What can be inferred from paragraphs 3 and 4?A.The robotic fly has been put into wide application.B.The robotic fly consists of a flight device and a control system.C.Information from many sources can be collected by the robotic fly.D.The robotic fly can just fly in limited areas at present.14.Which of the following can be learned from the passage?A.Wood’s design can replace animals in some experiments.B.Animals are not allowed in biological experiments.C.The robotic flyer is designed to learn about insects.D.There used to be few ways to study how insects fly.15.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A.The Development of Robotic FlyB.Robotic Fly Promotes Engineering ScienceC.Harvard’s Efforts in Making Robotic FlyD.Robotic Fly Imitates Real Life Insect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。

So she was aware of her relative youth in the field She also recognized that there haven' t been many womenin the ranks of NEAJazz Masters: fewer than 20, out of 145. That idea led her to reflect on her predecessors (前任):lege ndary sin gers like Betty Carter* who was seated back in 1992, and Abbey Lincoln, who received the nod in 2003.Bridgewater sought inspiration and advice from both Carter and Lincoln, as she recallsin this period of Jazz Night, which features music recorded duri ng the seas on ope ner forJazz at Lincoln Center. On a program called “Songs of Freedom ” , organized by drummer Ulysses Owe ns, Jr., Bridgewater sang material associated with Lincoln as well as Nina Simone: an extremely angry song of the civil rights movement, like “ Mississippi Goddam ”.A separate con cert, “ Songs We Love” , found Bridgewater singing less politicallycharged (but still exciting) fare like “St. James Infirmary ” , which appears on her mostD.

In words as well as music, this period reveals how seriously Bridgewater takes that resp on sibility, see ing as how it conn ects to her own experie nee in the jazz lin eage.But maybe “ seriously ” isn ' t the right word whe n it comes to Dee Dee, whose effervesce nee (欢腾)shines through even in a reflective mood.

He was born in Bavaria, an area that today is part of Germa ny. In 1847 he and his family immigrated to the Un itedStates. Levi Strauss ope ned a small dry goods store, first in NewYork, the n in San Fran cisco, California. Among the products he sold were jea ns. These pants were especially useful for made from a heavy cotton cloth called denim (牛仔布).Levi Strauss partnered with a clothing maker n amed Jacob Davis. Davis had inven ted a process for making rivets (铆钉)for jea ns. These little metal conn ectors helped hold the pieces of cloth together to make the jea ns stron ger.In 1873, the gover nment gave Strauss and Davis a pate nt (专禾U证)for their inven ti on.That meant no one else could legally copy it without their permission. They began producing what they called “copper -riveted waist overalls ” .In 1928, the Levi Strauss Company registered (注册)the w ord Levi ' s as a trademark for their product. The Smithsonian ' s National Museum of American History in Washington has one of the oldest known pairs ofLevi ' s.Writer James Sulliva n published a book called “ Jea ns: A Cultural History of an American Icon ” . In it, he says jeans represent two American values: creativity and rebellion. Cowboys wore jeans in the old Wild West. In the 1950s, people saw famous Hollywood actors like James Dea n and Marl on Brando weari ng jea ns in movies. Today jea ns still comein blue but also lots of other colors. They can also differ widely in price. You might find jeans for 15 dollars in an American discount store. However, they can also sell for thousands of dollars a pair.Some people like to buy Jeans that look fresh and new. Others like to buy new jeansthat are tom and look old. Early rock and roller Gene Vincent released “Blue Jean Bop ”in 1956. The energetic song includes a line with the word “dungaree” . That is anotherway of saying blue jeans. It is an old Hindi word meaning coarse calico, or denim. The word came from the n ame of a village that is now Mumbai.32. What can we learn about Levi Strauss from Paragraph 1?A. Levi Strauss ope ned his first jea ns store in New York.B. Levi Strauss was born in a jeans-making family in Bavaria.C. Levi Strauss inven ted jea ns and sold great nu mbers of them.D. Levi Strauss cooperated with Jacob Davis to make and sell jea ns.33.
