Last year, I went to the British high school as an exchange student. In fact, the classes in the UK are different from that in China. I found maths quite easily there because the maths teach materials are less advanced in the UK. However, learning in English was a great challenge for me. I couldn’t fully contribute the class discussion. Fortunate, my teachers and classmates were helpful, from which gave me much encouragement. After schools, I joined several clubs. The one that attract me most was the Rugby Club when I was there. Now, I’m glad to having the experience.

compound interest every _______ until you pay me back.”

作者之前不会拒绝同事的请求，但女儿出生后，作者意识到要平衡工作和生活，会仔细考虑同事的求助请求，学会了对同事说“不”。

13. I was sitting at my desk when another grade student in my lab approached me to ask my help with his experiment. I was then a fifth year PhD student, the respected senior member of the lab. But that also meant I was the one everyone turned to for help, which cost much time I could have spent on my own research.
There were many reasons I had a hard time saying no to such pleas (恳求). I was new to the United States for graduate school. I found it difficult to make new friends and discover activities I enjoyed, and I feared that if I brushed them off, I’d lose their favor.
I didn’t realize the extra responsibilities came at a cost until my wife gave birth to our first child. I often made sacrifices to my personal life. While she lay in a hospital bed, I sat nearby hunched (伏首前倾的) over my laptop finishing up a work report. Hours later, my daughter’s first cry dawned on me: I should have been fully present during my daughter’s birth. I was clearly spending too much time working.
From then on, I decided to spend more time with my family by paring down my work tasks and carefully considering each request for help. I balanced others’ requests for help and my own tasks. I noticed many benefits: no longer working overtime, more family time, and improved work performance.
It’s hard to say “no” to those you work with. But I’ve learned that sometimes that’s the best course of action to avoid a tall workload and lead a freer and happier life.
1. Why did he find it difficult to refuse his lab-mates?
A ．He wanted to earn their respect.
B ．He was afraid to be left out by them.
C ．He was the senior member of the lab.
D ．He had once received help from them.
2. What did he realize after his daughter’s birth?
A．His wife had done a lot for the family.
B．He should balance his work and life better.
C．He was guilty for his absence when she was born.
D．He should work harder due to the increased responsibilities.
3. What does the underlined phrase “paring down” in paragraph 4 mean?
A．Cutting down.B．Putting aside. C．Getting familiar with.D．Keeping track of.
4. What is the text mainly about?
A．Giving and taking.B．Enjoying family life. C．Learning to say “no”.D．Giving priority to family.文章大意：这是一篇应用文。

本篇文章就“为什么人们爱翘二郎腿”、“翘二郎腿有什么危害”以及“培养健康坐姿习惯”等展开讨论。

15. The topic of “crossing your legs” has been hotly discussed on the Internet recently. The truth is that crossing one leg over the other, a common sitting posture preferred by many people, may actually do harm to one’s health. So while seated, try not to do so any more.
Whether it is at the office, in a waiting room or relaxing at home, many people’ s go-to posture is one leg over the other, crossed at the knee. If you’re like many of us, you spend too many hours of your day seated and for most of that time, you have crossed your legs for comfort.
One study found that people who sat with their legs crossed for more than three hours a day were more likely to lean forward and to round their shoulders. But the research relied on people’s own estimations of how long they crossed their legs for.
When you cross your legs, you are putting compression and pressure on your leg and knee joints and nerves. The way you sit is a huge determinant of your health and the way your body moves and functions. Sitting with your legs crossed leaves your hips uneven and forces your pelvic bone (盆骨) to rotate. Therefore, the longer you sit in this uneven position, the more pressure is placed on your knee and spine (脊柱), increasing the likelihood that it will develop into a long-term issue.
If seated long, then more importantly for you, cultivate and develop a healthy habit of sitting position. And here are the followings. Switch sitting positions often. Take brief walks around your office or home. Gently stretch your muscles every so often to help relieve muscle tension. Keep your feet on the floor, with your ankles in front of your knees. Relax your shoulders; they should not be rounded. Keep your elbows in close to your body and let them be bent between 90 and 120 degrees. Make sure that your back, thighs and hips are fully supported. Try doing those and maybe some of them fit you.
1. Why do many people like to be seated “crossing their legs”?
A．They do so just for sort of ease.
B．They want their legs to take up more space.
C．They think it’s a power move.
D．It is a common sitting posture preferred by the most.
2. Which of the following may not be the “harm” that the long “cross-legged” position leads to?
A．Your hips are in an unbalanced position.
B．Your spine supports more pressure.
C．Your pelvic bone is forced to rotate.
D．You may lean forward.
3. How many proposals does the author speak about to those seated long in the text?
A．9.B．7.C．5.D．3.
4. What might the author mainly want to tell us?
A．What a common sitting posture is.
B．The cross-legged position is popular.
C．Don’t cross your legs any longer.
D．Being seated long is unhealthy.

珊瑚礁对海洋生态系统和人类至关重要，但是珊瑚礁正受到海水温度上升的威胁，研究人员正在采用自然活动和人为干预相结合的措施进行保护。

17. Coral reefs are the rainforests of the ocean. They exist on vast scales and are equally important havens(避风港)of biodiversity. Reefs occupy
0.1% of the oceans. 1
2 Without the protection which reefs afford from crashing waves, low-lying islands such as the Maldives would have flooded long ago, and
a billion people would lose food or income. However, reefs are under threat from rising sea temperatures. Heat causes the algae(海藻)with which
corals are living together to generate toxins(毒素)that force those coral to leave. This can cause a coral’s death.
Research groups around the world are coming up with plans of action to see if that will help, such as identifying naturally heat-resistant corals and cross-breeding such corals to create a new type. 3 Without carbon reduction and decline in local, coral-killing pollution, even resistant corals will not survive the century.
Doubters doubt humanity will get its act together in time to make much difference.
4 Carbon targets are being set and ocean pollution is being dealt with. Countries that share responsibilities for reefs are starting to act
together. Scientific workarounds can also be found. Natural currents can be applied to facilitate mass breeding. Sites of the greatest ecological and economical importance can be identified to maximize bang for buck.
This mix of natural activity and human intervention is important. 5 Hard-coregreens-those who think that all habitats should be kept unspoiled-may not approve. But when entire ecosystems are facing destruction, the cost of doing nothing is too great to bear.
A．Corals are useful to people.
B．But there are grounds for optimism.
C．And they host a quarter of marine species.
D．It could serve as a blueprint for other ecosystems.
E．Coral’s global ecosystem services are worth up to $10trn a year.
F．This research can also be brought to bear on trying to save entire ecosystems.
G．However, the assisted evolution of corals does not meet with universal enthusiasm.
