A
Beautiful Sea Caves in the world
Mother Nature sure knows how to show off with these beautiful sea caves around the world.
Blue Brotto --- Capri, Italy
The Blue Brotto in Capri, Italy is perhaps one of the most well-known sea caves in the world. In 1826, it was rediscovered by three men, and has been open to the public ever since. The best time to visit the Blue Grotto is between 12 and 2 p.m., because the blue color from the sunlight entering through the underwater opening is the strongest then.
Benagil Cave ---Portugal
Located in the small fishing village of Benagil on the south coast of Portugal, this beautiful cave is another well-known sight. Boat tours fill up fast here, so it’s important to book in advance. If you’re a strong swimmer, and it’s low tide, you can even swim into the cave. There, you can take a break and relax on the sand and watch the sun illuminate (照亮) the water around you.
Marble Caves --- Chico, Chile
Located in the Patagonian Andes on a peninsula in the center of Lake General Carrera, the Marble Caves in Chico, Chile can only be reached by boat. The surrounding clear waters allow visitors to see the rock formations (构造) beneath them while the rock ceilings above change color, which depends on the water levels and the season. The best time to visit: during sunrise and sunset and when the sun illuminates the cave walls. It can be a special experience to remember.
Ana Kakenga --- Easter Island, Chile
Ana Kakenga is the most-visited cave on Easter Island. To visit the cave, you must enter through a small hole in the ground, which measures slightly less than
two feet wide. As you could imagine, the entrance is very difficult to find without
a tour guide. After you enter the 164-foot-long volcanic tube, you’ ll find two
naturally formed windows looking over the water.
21.When is the best time for tourists to visit the Blue Grotto?
A.At sunrise.
B. In the afternoon.
C. At sunset.
D. At night.
22. What do you need to do before you go to the Benagil Cave?
A. Bring a pair of sunglasses.
B. Bring your fishing tools.
C. Book ahead of schedule.
D. Learn how to swim.
23. Which cave needs a tour guide to guide you?
A. The Blue Grotto
B. Benagil Cave
C. The Marble Caves
D. Ana Kakenga
B.
Years ago, I volunteered to start a knitting club at Hammerson House, a care home for the elderly in North London. I met Dr. Edith Kaufmann there, the second oldest person in the UK. I didn’t realize it would be the start of a close friendship, where the age gap spanned (跨越) eight decades. To my surprise, from the beginning, I never felt that we didn’t have enough in common. Moreover, I was amazed that Edith could have a full conversation with me about anything, and that her memory extended so easily, recalling even small parts of conversation which took place 100 years ago.
We began building our friendship piece by piece, week by week. Once I got her photo albums and looked them through, she would recall the story behind each of the thousands of photos that formed her life. Edith successfully captured (捕捉) the amazing trips that she took across several continents with her husband, Paul. Both photographers, they would go everywhere at a time when international travel was harder than it is now. From the US to the Middle East, with a lot of time spent on “the continent”.
Over the years of visiting Edith, something interesting started to happen---I realized that I was going as much for me as I was for her. When things have been a bit frustrating in my life; when I have failed at things; when friendships and relationships have been confusing; when small decisions have weighed on my mind, I have appreciated nothing more than the opportunity to get back my view on life and what actually matters.
Death at 111 is not unexpected, but I still feel that something is missing from my life. I feel very fortunate to have formed such a special relationship with such a wonderful lady, who was a true friend in every sense.
24．T he author met Dr. Edith Kaufmann when she _____________.
A. was a volunteer at a knitting organization.
B. set up a club in a nursing home.
C. left Hammerson House.
D. studied in North London.
25．According to the text,__________was difficult in the past.
A. living to be one hundred
B. remembering every event
C. travelling all over the world
D. taking photographs
26．How did the author benefit from her friendship with Dr. Edith Kaufmann?
A. She began to keep a diary every day.
B. She became interested in travelling.
C. She learned how to deal with difficulties.
D. She knew what was important in life.
27．Which would be the best title for the text?
A. An Unforgettable experience
B. Being Friends with an Old Woman.
C. How to Get Along with the old.
D. The Story of My Best Friends.
C
Human demands for natural resources have doubled in less than 50 years and are now beyond what the earth can provide, a report warned. If humans carry on like this, we will need two earths by 2030. The population of wildlife has fallen by 60% in thirty years.
The report said British people are consuming(消耗) far more than the earth can deal with. If everyone lived such a lifestyle, humans would need 2.75 planets to survive. People are now living lifestyles which would require 1.5 planets, though there are great differences between rich and poor nations.
Researchers studied the global change in land use and water consumption. The UK comes 31st in a list of countries based one “ecological footprint(生态足迹)”that measures how much land and sea each person needs to produce the resources they consume and to absorb (吸收) the wastes. The UK has fallen down from 15th place in the last report two years ago to 3lst place, but the WWF believes it is an increase in other countries’efforts rather than a reduction in the UK’s use of resources.
Ireland has the 10th highest ecological footprint, while the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Denmark, Belgium and the US are the five worst countries for over-consumption of resources. The study suggests if the expected global population of 9.2 billion in 2050 were to eat a Malaysian diet, 1.3 planets would be needed but if everyone were to eat an Italian diet, humans would need almost two planets. Those countries that can provide the highest quality of life using the lowest amount of resources will not only serve the global interest, but will be the leaders in a resource-limited world.
28．We will probably need __________earths if we follow the British lifestyle.
A. 1.3
B. 2.75
C. 2
D. 1.5
29．What do we know about “ecological footprint”?
A. It has something to do with human demands for resources and their wastes.
B. It is used to produce the resources and absorb the wastes.
C. We can know the total amount of resources on the earth through it.
D. It is about changes in land use and water consumption across the globe. 30．The WWF believes that_________.
A. the earth won’t be able to meet human needs after 50 years.
B. the UK has possibly not reduced the use of resources over the past two years.
C. Ireland has a lower ecological footprint than the UK.
D. there are no big differences in lifestyle between rich and poor nations. 31．It can be learned from the text that Malaysia_________
A. has a larger population than Italy.
B. consumes fewer resources than Italy.
C. would need almost two planets.
D. has the highest quality of life.
D
Astronauts traveling in space meet forms of radiation(辐射) that are uncommon on Earth. Some of the radiation has been shown to be harmful to human health, which
is linked to cancers and heart problems. Yet a new American study had a different finding.
Researchers studied nearly 60 years of health records and other data (数据)about astronauts from the United States. They then compared the data to the information about a group of athletes, who receive good health care and are in good health.
The result shows that neither group has higher rates of dying at a young age. In fact, both groups generally live longer than the other Americans.
Astronauts are usually well-educated, earn more money and are in better physical condition. Some earlier research linked these to astronauts’ lower risk of early death.
However, they might ignore the physical requirements of this job. In fact, there has not been much research on whether astronauts show what is known as the “healthy worker effect”.This effect leads people with the work of space travelling to have fewer medical problems than those who are not working in this field, said Robert Reynolds, a member of the study team.
Reynolds said, “The problem has always been to understand if astronauts are as healthy as they would be if they had never gone to space. This means we have to find a group that is comparable on several important factors(因素).”Considering the similar physical requirements, a group of athletes are selected.
As the result suggests, being exposed (暴露) to radiation doesn't lead to an early death for astronauts.
“Diet and physical exercise also set astronauts and athletes apart from the rest of the po pulation,” said Reynolds. “A job requiring physical fitness can add to the healthy worker effect. Even for the other people, remaining or becoming physically active and keeping a well-balanced diet greatly improve overall health and well-being, thus making successfully becoming older possible.”
32．What does the underlined sentence in the first paragraph mean?
A. Some forms of radiation are common on Earth.
B. Some radiation is not harmful to human health.
C. Astronauts may have other health problems.
D. As tronauts’health won’t be affected by radiation.
33．W hy do astronauts have a lower risk of early death according to the study?
A. They are well protected from radiation.
B. They have better knowledge about health.
C. They are richer to afford better medical care.
D. They need to stay healthy because of their job.
34．Why are athletes chosen as a comparative group in the study?
A. They work in different fields.
B. They both need to be healthy enough.
C. They receive the same diets and exercise.
D. They suffer from the same health problems.
35．What’s the main idea of the text?
A. Astronauts are as healthy as athletes.
B. One’s health is determined by his job type.
C. Radiation actually doesn’t shorten astronauts’ lives.
D. Exercise and balanced diets are secrets to a longer life.

The human body needs 25 to 30 grams of fibre per day. 36 . It also helps prevent some diseases. Here’s how to get the most you can.
37 , but some plants are better than others. Instead of potato chips which hold only 1 gram of fibre, choose an apple, sink your teeth into a pear or have some raisins(葡萄干). You’ll need about 10 apples to meet the daily fibre requirement, so mix it up. Fruit is particularly high in fibre, and any fruit will do.
Your mother always makes you eat vegetables. She really does know everything.
38 . Peas, carrots and broccoli(西兰花) are some of the most beneficial. Raw vegetables are best, but you can steam them if you like.
We all like snacking throughout the day, so make it count. 39 , but don’t go “nuts” with nuts. They are high in calories and fat, so don’t get carried away, or you’ll gain more than just fibre in your diet.
You should read the fine print(说明书). 40 . Read nutrition labels (标签） and choose foods that are rich in fibre or have added fibre. Avoid white bread and choose dark whole-wheat bread. Study the labels carefully to make sure you are getting everything that you deserve.
A．You will know how to cook your food by reading the instructions on the bags.
B．A handful of peanuts will give you plenty of fibre.
C．Raw or cooked vegetables are a great source of fibre.
D．The experts give some advice on getting more fibre.
E．With a little research you can find the fibre.
F．Fibre is fundamental to balanced digestion.

阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。

The rising cost of attending a university in America has been a matter of concern and debate in recent years. But Michael Hansen, a chief executive officer of Cengage Learning, says what often does not get discussed is the hidden costs related to higher education, 61
are not immediately included in the cost of a student’s school fees, 62 (include) student housing and health care, and even textbooks, and he admits these costs are not low.
For years, higher education textbook publishers have tried to find ways of 63
(reduce) their costs to students. Some 64 (develop) programs that permit students to temporarily（暂时地) own textbooks and then return them 65
they’re no longer needed. And many schools buy textbooks back from students and offer them to other students at
66 reduced price.
Yet Hansen says such efforts do not do much to solve the problem of rising costs. That’s
67 , he says, his company decided to launch a new product, called Cengage Unlimited, in 2017.
Cengage Unlimited lets students make use of all of the textbooks the company publishes, but in digital (数码的）form instead of 68 (physics）copies.
Hansen says that the service 69 (certain) offers more than just textbooks. The digital products include videos and computer software programs that test students’ understanding of 70 they are reading.

It has been more than two months since our English Club is set up by several classmates and I. So far, we have organized many activities, that include watching English films, reading classic English novels, held a Christmas party and so on. Every member took the active part in the activity.

Dear David,
I’m delighted to tell you that I made great progress in my English study in the
final-exam.
I appreciate your help. As you know, my English used to be not very good. Learning about this, you gave me some practical suggestions, which proved to be effective and helped me regain confidence in learning English. In addition, you mailed lots of English newspapers and magazines to me, which played an important part in increasing my vocabulary and improving my writing.
I know you are learning Chinese now, so if you need help, I am pleased to give you a hand.
Yours sincerely Li Hua。
