Many people might search online for answers to questions like whether new energy vehicles are suitable for use on high plateaus as they prepare for a road trip to the Tibet autonomous region,but MuYiping and his wife,Tan Yan,focused on something else.
Like so many others,the young couple from Chongqing traveled to the region to enjoy the enchanting sight of peach blossoms in late March,but what set them apart was that they had come with a mobile coffee van(厢式货车)."I have been looking forward to visiting Tibet for a long time,”said Mu,32.“And then I had the idea of starting a mobile coffee van business to allow me to fund my travels as I enjoyed the trip.”
To ensure they reached Nyingchi city before peach blossom season,they left Chongqing
in late February.While crossing a mountain pass at about4,400meters,they were stuck for two days due to heavy snowfall and had to eat and sleep in the van.“Once we hit the road, we discovered that the trip might not be quite as wonderful as we had imagined.We often had unexpected problems with water and power,and it was also difficult to buy supplies on the road,”Tan said.
But as their mountain journey continued,so did their progress with their coffee business, which they would set up beside the road during traffic jams.They also began to serve new drinks with a Tibetan twist.
In mid-March,as the peach trees were still budding,the couple arrived in Bomi county in Nyingchi and decided to stay there for a while.Despite the exhausting drive,the stunning views made it all worthwhile.They stayed for20days in Bomi,eagerly waiting for pink peach flowers to cover the mountainside.
“The sight was amazing and really made our day,”Mu said.“Compared with my last visit,I have noticed significant improvements in the quality of public infrastructure such as roads and scenic spots,which now offer quality services.Whether it's camping or self-driving tours,everything is so convenient in Tibet,”Mu said.
23.What did the couple focus on during the trip?
A.Peach blossoms.
B.Means of transport.
C.A coffee business.
D.Mobile workforce.
24.What do we learn about their couple?
A.Their van was often on the line.
B.Their journey was no easy task.
C.They swung into action in Mid-March.
D.Their concern was justified on the trip.
26.What message did Mu want to convey in the last paragraph?
A.Tibet has undergone incredible changes.
B.Tourism in Tibet needs to be prioritized.
C.It takes ages for Tibet to become amazing.
D.The tourist season in Tibet is well underway
27.Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Tibet:a blessing to Humankind
B.On the road:the Inspiration behind Coffee.
C.Benefiting from a stunning mountain journey.
D.Enjoying dream life in Tibet with a coffee van

We are eating more fish than ever these days.At around20kilograms per person,global fish consumption is now more than twice what it was in the1960s.What's really remarkable, though,is where that fish comes from.
For the first time in human history,most of our aquatic(水产的)food now comes from farming rather than fishing.
People ate around73million tonnes of farmed fish--just more than half of the volume of fish that humans consumed—in2014.That's out of a total fish supply of167million tonnes;the remaining20million or so tonnes go turn into things like animal feed and medical products.
To keep eating fish at the current rate,we're definitely going to need to keep aquaculture(水产养殖)developing.That's because the volume of fish caught in the wild has leveled off since the1990s.
Back in1974,only10%of marine fish stocks had been overfished.Now,more than three-tenths are.Only a tenth of our oceans’fish stocks could support heavier fishing than current levels.
But while catchings at sea have suffered,fish-farming has been growing at a fast rate.A lot of that is coming from China,which produces60%of the world's farmed fish.In fact, some35countries,including China,now produce more farmed than wild-caught fish.
This shift toward aquaculture isn't just good for ensuring salmon(三文鱼)on your plate; it's also crucial to ensuring food security and sustainability.By2050,the world will need to feed an estimated9.7billion people.They'll have to get their protein somewhere.However, raising cattle,pigs,and other land-based animals requires vast sums of grain and water.For example,pound for pound,beef requires15times more feed to raise than carp,a freshwater fish farmed all over Asia.That grain—and the water needed to grow it—could be consumed by people instead.
However,aquaculture is not a silver bullet.In some southeast Asian countries,shrimp farming does disastrous damage to marine ecosystems.Despite these problems,however, shrimp continues to be among the most popular seafood worldwide.
28.What is surprising about the fish we eat?
A.The history of fish.
B.The farming of fish.
C.The importance of fish.
D.The reproduction of fish.
29.What does the author sav about China in terms of aquatic food?
A.It places increasing emphasis on fishing.
B.It supplies60%of the world's fish products.
C.It boasts of the world's largest fishing stocks.
D.It raises more fish than caught from the wild.
30.Why does aquaculture have a vital role these days?
A.It is a must for feeding the world's fast-growing population.
B.It ensures a balanced healthy diet for people the world over.
C.It proves a reliable source of protein for humans and animals.
D.It is essential to maintaining both mental and physical health.
31.Which has the closest meaning to the underlined"a silver bullet"in the last paragraph?
A.A big surprise.
B.A minor problem.
C.A wise move.
D.A wet blanket.
D
Recognizing when a friend or colleague feels sad,angry or surprised is key to getting along with others.But a new study suggests that being sensitive to feelings may sometimes come with an extra dose of stress.This and other research challenge the prevailing view that emotional intelligence is uniformly beneficial to its bearer.
In a study,psychologists Myriam Bechtoldt of the Frankfurt School of Finance and Management in Germany asked166male university students a series of questions to measure their emotional intelligence.For example,they showed the students photographs of people's faces and asked them to what extent feelings such as happiness or disgust were being expressed.The students then had to give job talks in front of judges displaying serious facial expressions.The scientists measured concentrations of the stress hormone cortisol in the students’saliva(唾液)before and after the talk.
In students who were rated more emotionally intelligent,the stress measures increased more during the experiment and took longer to go back to baseline.The findings suggest that some people may be too emotionally clever for their own good,says Bechtoldt.“Sometimes you can be so good at something that it causes trouble,”she notes.
Indeed,the study adds to previous research hinting at a darker side of emotional intelligence.A study published in2002in Personality and Individual Differences c1goested that emotionally perceptive people might be particularly influenced by feelings of depression and homelessness.Furthermore,several studies have implied that emotional intelligence can be used to control others for personal gains.
More research is needed to see how exactly the relation between emotional intelligence and stress would play out in women and in people or different ages and education levels. Nevertheless,emotional intelligence is a useful skill to have,as long as you learn to also properly deal with emotions—both others’and your own,says Bechtoldt.For example,some sensitive individuals may assume responsibility for other people's sadness or anger,which ultimately stresses them out.Remember,as Bechtoldt says,“you are not responsible for how other people feel.”
32.Why did Myriam Bechtoldt conduct the research?
A.To challenge the public assumption.
B.To introduce measures to reduce stress.
C.To assess the impacts of being emotionally clever.
D.To demonstrate how to distinguish different feelings
33.What does the finding indicate?
A.Greater emotional cleverness brings a head start in one’s life.
B.People may suffer from having a high emotional intelligence.
C.People's psychological well-being is related to various factors.
D.Emotional intelligence means an upper hand in job interviews.
34.What do we learn about emotional intelligence from a number of studies?
A.Some people may take advantage of it and benefit themselves.
B.Some people may lack it and are easily influenced by others.
C.People suffering from depression are emotionally immature.
D.People who look at the dark side of life are often depressed.
35.What does the author suggest sensitive individuals do?
A.Help people to deal with their troubles in life.
B.Learn to cope with people's negative feelings.
C.Rid themselves of worries over worldly affairs.
D.Avoid burdening themselves with others'feelings.

Lotteries(彩票)have been with us for most of recorded human history,dating back to the Han Dynasty,when profits may have helped finance the Great Wall.36About half of Americans said that they had bought a lottery ticket within the past year.However, there are many beliefs surrounding these games of chance that are actually untrue. Playing makes economic sense when the jackpot(头奖)gets big.
The expected value of playing actually decreases as the jackpot gets bigger.The jackpot is paid out as an annuity(年金),which decreases its net present value(净现值);if you choose to take it as a lump sum(一次付清),you will get only about60percent of the advertised prize.37For example,the chance of winning the Mega Million jackpot is1in302 million.Famously,you are more likely to be hit by lightning,than actually winning. Winning big will solve your financial problems.
Even if you know the odds,it's tough to shake the belief that hitting the jackpot would remove all of your money issues.Research shows within three to five years,the winners of big prizes were equally likely to have gone bankrupt(破产)as the small winners,and the groups had similarly low savings and high levels of debt.38One winner of more than$300million led to his granddaughter's drug habit that eventually took her life.
39
“Winning$20million in the lottery won't make you happier,”said Harvard Medical School professor Sanjiv Chopra in a TED talk.He cited research showing that happiness varies with positive or negative changes in circumstances in the short run.40
Studies that have examined the happiness levels of lottery winners,however,offer a more positive view.Probably the best study on this question,by researchers at the University of Warwick,examined repeated surveys collected from a random sample of Britons,some of whom received lottery wins of up to$200,000.Two years after a lottery win,they exhibited significantly better psychological health than those who hadn’t won.
A.There is a very good chance of winning the prize.
B.There are many stories of lottery wins destroying them.
C.Even now drawing a lucky number still has much appeal.
D.Winning the lottery will not contribute to your well-being.
E.They were also present at the beginning of modern England.
F.Over time people tend to return to their own happiness“set point”.
G.Besides,with a jackpots much larger lotteries reduced the odds of winning

Dear fellow students,
第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。

In late February.mv dad asked me if I wanted to go fishing with him.I said yes.My whole family,minus one of my sisters,would be going.
On the day we left I was excited to go on the trip.As soon as we got there,I unpacked all the things I had in the bedroom My bedroom was small and had two bunk beds on either side of the room.The room made me feel like I was in someone’s grandma’s house.It was late by the time we got to the house,so I went to bed quickly.
The next morning I got up and my dad said that we would board the boat for just something to do.As we were in the car,I noticed that it was raining pretty hard outside.
Just then another boat approached us.A man with heavy beard shouted at us,claiming that it was not a good day for boating.He warned us to go back,but we thought nothing of it. The boat was pretty nice.It had a covering over the front side of the boat and seats in the back.
We got out to the water,and the waves started to pick up a little.As we got out to the water a little farther I thought to myself,"Wouldn’t it be funny if the boat starts sinking?”
Apparently,my thought was starting to come into reality,as the waves started picking up even more.I looked at my sister with a worried look on my face.She also looked worried.
The boat started tipping more as the waves spilled into the boat.My sister and I started screaming.I looked at my dad and he had a worried look on his face too.That was how I knew that things were getting worse.
My dad usually never gets worried about these sorts of things.The water was about knee high on my sister and me.The boat kept rocking from side to side.
注意:
1.所续词数应为150左右;

Dear fellow students,
With Endangered Species Day approaching,I’m writing to appeal to all of you to protect wild animals and plants.
As we all know,we human beings could not live without wildlife,because they play an important role in keeping the balance of nature.Protecting them is actually protecting ourselves.We can put some relevant posters around the school and hand out some leaflets in the neighborhood.What’s more,we can also attend some lectures to have a better understanding of wildlife and their situation.
We students can also do our part.Let’s take action right now!
第二节读后续写
My sister was now crying and my mom was yelling at us to put our life jackets on.I almost cried myself but I knew that crying and panicking wouldn’t help.My dad had my sister sit closer to the front of the boat so she would be the safest.I held my mom tightly the whole time while she tried scooping the water out of the boat with her hands.We started to head back to the docks before the boat sank.With a pounding heart and cold,moist palms,I found it was getting hard to breathe.
I thought I was going to die.The waves wouldn’t calm down.The rain was still pouring down on us.Desperate as we were,we had no choice but to stay put,sinking with the boat.Just then,I felt someone grabbed my arm out of the water.Clearing the water on my face,I could see the man with heavy beard came to our rescue.As soon as the boat got back to the dock,my sister and I jumped out of the boat,after extending our gratitude to the man for his kindness.
