AThailand's southern beaches attract travelers with their clean water and dramaticcliffs (峭壁), but there's more to explore in this Southeast Asian country.Lopburi for history buffsBypass the tour groups at the ancient city of Ayutthaya and head two hours north ofthe capital, Bangkok, for a peaceful walk through Thai history. Lopburi, one of Thailand's oldest cities, boasts Khmer-era temples and the uncrowded ruins of King Narai's Palace,which was built in the 1600s. It's also known for the monkeys that gather at Phra PrangSam Yot temple in the center of town.Ban Krut for beach bumsIn Ban Krut, travelers will find one of the cleanest and quietest stretches of whitesandy beach within driving distance of Bangkok. This sleepy seaside community, known mostly by locals, is a five-hour drive or six-hour train trip down the Gulf of Thailand. Don'tmiss the magnificent Wat Tang Sai, a huge, fairy tale castle-like Buddhist temple.Cave for holiday hikersHiking trails, wetlands and forests make Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park a weekendadventure worthy of topping your Thailand to-do list. The park's crown jewel is theextraordinary Phraya Nakhon Cave. Come e arly to catch the picturesque chamber flooded with morning sunshine that spotlights the royal pavilion that sits inside.River Kwai for nature loversMost visitors come for the beaches, but the rivers and parks in Thailand's Kanchanaburi province have much to offer. Scenic trails and waterfalls abound in Sai Yok and Erawannational parks. Just two hours from Bangkok is the bridge made famous in the book Bridge over the River Kwai by French author, Pierre Boulle, and the 1957 Academy Award-winning1957 film adaptation of the same name. Stay on the river at one of Kanchanaburi's manyfloating hotels, where you can travel to your front door.1．From which of the following can you learn more about Thai history?A．Ban Krut B．KanchanaburiC．Phraya Nakhon Cave D．Lopburi2．What can tourists do in Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park?A．Visit temples. B．Meet lovely monkeys.C．Go hiking. D．Go to the beach.3．What can we know from the passage?A．River Kwai was made famous by a book and a filmB．Tourists can stay at the floating hotels on River Kwai.C．Most visitors visit Thailand for rivers and parksD．Travellers can find Khmer-era temples in Ban Krut.BAlaska state officials are hosting Walmart executives in the state capital this weekin an effort to resolve a months-old argument over Alaskan salmon fisheries’ sustainability qualifications.The seeds of the quarrel were planted several years ago when several Alaskan fisheries decided to end their relationship with the Marine Stewardship Council—the famous global organization that states and proves the truthfulness of sustainable fishing—to seek out other means assuring customers of their sustainable practices. But last June, Walmart told Alaskan fisheries that it would not be buying salmon sourced from fisheries not certifiedby the Marine Stewardship Council.Now Walmart is caught between two forces–Alaska fisheries and “buy American”enthusiasts who think the company’s first responsibility should be to American industry, and environmentalists who think Walmart should make as strong a commitment toenvironmentally sustainable industry as possible.But from a broader perspective, this latest noise is an object lesson in why the concept of corporate (公司的) responsibility has shortcomings to begin with. Walmart—like most successful corporations—is pretty good at offering products their customers want at lowprices. When it tries to promote broader public goods, like a clean environment, or lowerunemployment for veterans, it’s nowhere near as successful. Here’s a few of Walmart’s more notable corporate-responsibility confusion:The Buy-American Debacle: Walmart’s first major corporate responsibility push was an effort in the 1980s to promote American-made products. But the campaign ran aground (搁浅) after a NBC investigation revealed that the company was actually selling productsmanufactured in India as “Made American.”The Going Green Campaign: Walmart launched on a sustainability campaign aimed at making the retail giants operations much more environmentally friendly. Though Walmart and themedia have done much to raise visibility of these efforts, the actual results have beenlacking. According to a recent report from the Institute for Local Self Reliance (ILSR),Walmart’s sustainability campaign is much more focused on making its operations appeargreen to customers than stopping doing things that would actually help the environment,like reducing emissions.In reality, these examples simply show that one can’t realistically expect corporationsto behave in a way that is opposite to making profits. But that doesn’t mean that the goal of fishing sustainability isn’t achievable. It’s just that the corporate structure isn’t our best means of achieving them—the government is.4．What is the function of the Marine Stewardship Council?A．To advocate sustainable fishing practices. B．To persuade supermarkets to buy its products.C．To solve disagreements between fisheries and supermarkets.D．To guarantee the safety of goods supplied by supermarkets.5．According to the author, Walmart’s corporate responsibility is ________.A．confusing B．heavyC．environmental-friendly D．unsatisfying6．From Paragraph 5, we know ________.A．Walmart’s sustainability campaign worked wellB．Walmart might have profited at the cost of the environmentC．ILSR’s report was part of Walmart’s campaign planD．Walmart had no intention to protect the environment at all7．Who should be mainly responsible for achieving the goals of fishing sustainability?A．The company structure B．WalmartC．The government D．The Marine Stewardship CouncilCA cloudless Southern California sky looms over the Pro Park Course for the Pro SkatePark Series. Here to compete are some of the top female skaters in the world. The womenskaters range in age from early adolescence to early 30s, but in a sport that embraces youth, there is one who stands out. At 8 years old, Sky Brown, would be the youngest skater, maleor female, ever to compete at this series.She is known to some — a minor star of the viral age. When h er first video was postedto YouTube, Sky initially gained a little internet fame as a premature and level-headed4-year-old — highly intelligent, well-spoken beyond her years, hugely talented, and yetgrounded. Four years later, it was announced that she would be competing at Huntington Beach. Still, the question remains: Is she truly ready, or will this be another case where reality comes crashing down hard on all the hype?And then, it turns out to be anything but. Sky goes out and presents one surprise after another. Commentators Neal Hendrix and Chris Pastras are left in awe, “Half of the proscan't do.” The only thing that makes the prodigy look like a kid is her size. In everyother regard, she holds her own with skaters 10 and 20 years her senior. Before thecompetition at Huntington, Sky was a curiosity. After, she is a competitor.Sky's first memory of a skateboard is seeing her father, Stuart, doing a few tricksin front of the family home. “It always looked really fun,” says Sky. “I just kept begging to try it.” Sky progressed quickly, although she never had a formal coach. Somehow shejust had the knack. Every movement, every shift in weight, every push and pull of body onboard, she absorbed. Then, she did it herself.“You get so close to making it,” she says of her process, “and think you're aboutto land it, and then it takes you 100 more times. I'm always saying to my parents, 'Justone last try.'” If anyone was pushing, striving to get better, it was Sky herself, learning new tricks the same way everyone else does — by trying, failing, falling, and getting back up again.8．What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 2?A．To show Sky’s early experience.B．To show Sky’s talents from varied aspects.C．To show the public’s doubt about Sky’s competence.D．To show the public’s recognition of Sky’s performances.9．What do we know about Sky?A．She equals the senior skaters in the competition.B．She looks like a professional skater in terms of her figure.C．She participates in a competition inappropriate for the young.D．She has already become a household name before the competition.10．What is the main reason for Sky’s achievements?A．Her parents push her too hard.B．She practices hard and never quits.C．Her coach is very strict with her.D．Her father exerts a strong influence on her.11．What is the best title for the text?A．A Rocky Road Leads to Internet FameB．A Strong Competitor Stands out from CrowdC．An 8-year-old Skater Amazes the WorldD．A Wonder Shows at the Pro Skate Park SeriesDDon't get mad the next time you catch your teenager texting when he promised to bestudying. He simply may not be able to resist. A University of lowa(UI) study found teenagers are far more sensitive than adults to the immediate effect or reward of their behaviors.The findings may help explain why the initial rush of texting may be more attractive foradolescents than the long-term pay off of studying."For the teenager, 'the rewards are attractive." says Professor Jatin Vaidya，an author of the study. "They draw adolescent. Sometimes, the rewards are a kind of motivation forthem. Even when a behavior is no longer in a teenager's best interest to continue, theywill, because the effect of the reward is still there and lasts much longer in adolescents than in adults ."For parents,that means limiting distraction (分心的事情）so teenagers can make better choices. Take the homework and social media dilemma: At 9 p.m., shut off everything except a computer that has no access to Facehook or Twitter, the researchers advise. "I'm notsaying they shouldn't be allowed access to technology," Vaidya says. But some h elp in netting their concentration is necessary for them so they can develop those impulse-controlskills.”In their study,Vaidya and co-author Shaun Vecera note researchers generally believeteenagers are impulsive（冲动的)，make bad decisions，and engage in risky behavior because the frontal lobes（额叶）of their trains are not fully developed. But the UI researcherswondered. whether something more fundamental was going on with adolescents to causebehaviors independent of higher-level reasoning."We wanted to try to understand the brain's reward system how it change from chillhoodto adulthood," Says Vaidya, who adds the reward character in the human brain is easier than decision-making. “We've been trying to understand the reward process in adolescence andwhether there is more to adolescence behavior than an under-developed frontal lobe,”he adds.For their study ,the researchers persuaded 40 adolescents, aged 13 and 16,and 40adults, aged 20 and 35 to participate.In the future,researchers hope to look into the psychological and neurological（神经学上的）aspects of their results.12．What does the passage mainly tell us?A．The initial rush of texting is less attractive for adolescents than the long-term payoff of studying.B．Always, rewards are attractive to teenagers.C．Resistance can be controlled well by adolescents.D．Getting rewards is the greatest motivation for adolescents to study.13．Which statement agrees with Vaidya's idea?A．The influence of the reward is weak in adolescents.B．Parents should help children in making decisions.C．Children should have access to the Internet.D．Children need help in refocusing their attention.14．What result does teenagers' brain underdevelopment lead to?A．Doing things after some thought.B．Making good decisions.C．Joining in dangerous actions.D．Escaping risky behavior.15．How did the researchers carry out their study?A．By making a comparison of brain examinations.B．By examining adults’ brain.C．By examining teenage brain.D．By building the train’s reward system.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。

A．A．have a night time journeyB．become a member of the zooC．stay in one of Chester and Cheshire’s hotelsD．join one of the daily animal talks in the zoo2．What is special about LANTERN MAGIC?A．Animals can be adopted.B．Visitors can get cheaper zoo tickets.C．Festive characters and lanterns can be seen.D．Visitors can do voluntary work for the zoo.3．You can get the information about the membership at ________.A． B．/hotelsC．/talks D．/christmasBPlants go into a state of complete “panic” when it rains, according to surprised scientists. This response is so unusual because plants obviously need water to live. The researchers think that the “panic” response is due to the fact that moisture creates the number one way for diseases to spread in vegetation.Biochemist Harvey Millar from the University of Western Australia explained: “When a raindrop splashes across a leaf, tiny droplets of water go in all directions. These droplets can contain bacteria, or viruses. A single droplet can spread these up to 10 meters to surrounding plants.” The longer a leaf is wet, the greater the chance that a disease can take hold.So this is why the researchers think plants react to rain like humans would react to someone sneezing on them. They conducted an experiment in which they mimicked rain with a spray bottle and noticed rapidmicroscopic reactions from the plants that are invisible to the human eye. After the first 10 minutes of artificial raining, over 700 genes in the plants were said to respond in a panic-like manner and most of them continued to do so for around 15 minutes. In this time chemical reactions like how the plant creates proteins and its hormone balance were affected.A single touch of water activated an immediate response from plants. The reactions created warning signals that travelled from leaf to leaf and resulted in the plant producing a range of protective measures. Plants that were repeatedly watered eventually suffered from stunted growth and delayed flowering.Interestingly, the plants were also found to be communicating their “fears” with nearby vegetation. They did this by producing airborne chemicals that can be picked up by other plants and inform them what’s going on and how they’re coping. Millar said: “If a plant’s neighbors have their defence systems turned on, they are less likely to spread disease, so i t’s in their best interest for plants to spread the warning to nearby plants.”4．Paragraph 2 mainly talks about ________.A．how droplets spread bacteria or virusesB．why plants get into a “panic” when it rainsC．how tiny drops of water go in all directionsD．that longer leaves can take hold of more diseases5．The underlined word “mimicked” is closest to ________ in meaning.A．poured B．fetchedC．contained D．imitated6．Why does the author mention the experiment in Paragraph 3?A．To question the ideas mentioned above.B．To introduce a new topic for discussion.C．To offer additional topic-related information.D．To compare it with previous experiments.7．Which of the following statements is TRUE?A．Plants respond to water slowly.B．Plants shut their defence systems when it rains.C．Plants only communicate within their own species.D．Plants may not grow well when watered too frequently.CPeople speak English in different parts of the world. The same words can be used in different ways, depending on where you live. People can also have completely different ways of saying the same thing.The Oxford English Dictionary(OED) is asking the public to help it add new words. Editors want to find the regional differences in English around the world. They want to expand its record of the language.Last year, the OED, BBC Radio and the Forward Arts Foundation teamed up to find local words in the United Kingdom. It resulted in more than 100 regional words and phrases being added to the dictionary. One was “cuddy wifter”, which m eans a left-handed person.Now, the OED is widening its search to English speakers around the world. Eleanor Maier, an editor at OED, said the response has been great. Editors are listing a bunch of suggestions to include in the dictionary.These include H awaii’s “hammajang”, which means “in a disorderly state”. Another is the word for a swimming costume, “dookers” or “duckers”. It is used in Scotland.The OED also might include the word “frog-drowner”, which Americans might use to describe a downpour of ra in. Another possibility is “brick”. It means “very cold” to people in New Jersey and New。

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.

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。

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 Board Member 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 DoctorsOrganic 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 consumers believe 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)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。

AChristmas is coming early this year for “Downton Abbey”《唐顿庄园》fans. Highclere Castle, where the beloved British show was filmed, will be available for one night only on Airbnb.The stay will offer two lucky guests a glimpse at what life as a Crawley may have been like. Theonce-in-a-lifetime stay will take place on November 26, 2019, according to the listing.Highclere Castle belongs to the Earl and Countess of Carnarvon, who still live on the grounds and will host the guests. The Earl is Queen Elizabeth II’s godson.Reservations for Highclere Castle will become available on October 1 at 7 p.m. ET, and it’s first come, first serve.The stay at Highclere Castle will cost $159.In a one-night-only listing, Earl and Lady Carnarvon are inviting one lucky couple to “live like royalty” at their 100,000-square-foot, 300-room estate in Hampshire, England. The chosen pair will be invited to share dinner with the Earl and Countess in the state dining room, followed by coffee in the library. They will then retire to one of the gallery bedrooms with views overlooking 1,000 acres of parkland. Before they leave the following day, the guests can also expect breakfast and a private tour of the grounds that will highlight rooms “Downton Abbey” fans know well, including the drawing room and gallery bedrooms.Guests will be waited on by the castle’s butler service(管家服务) during dinner and the re’s strictly one butler allowed per guest, according to house rules.Other stipulations for guests include that all newspapers must be ironed, they must wear cocktail attire to dinner, they can only gossip in the downstairs quarters, and there are no pets allowed. But have no fear, there are nine dogs on site who can’t wait to make your acquaintance.This isn’t the first time the Earl and Countess have opened their doors to the public.Visitors can take tours of the castle between 9:30 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. daily from July to September. The castle is also open on various days throughout the year. The couple even hosted the first public Christmas ball at Highclere Castle last year. They’ll be hosting another holiday ball this year, though thespecific date hasn’t been announced yet.“It’s an absolute privilege and pleasure to call Highclere Castle my home and I am delighted to be able to share it on Airbnb for a truly unique stay,” Lady Carnarvon wrote on Airbnb.“Highclere Castle has been in the Carnarvon family since 1679 and has an incredibly rich history,” the Countess added. “I am passionate about the stories and heritage of Highclere Castle, and I am looking forward to welcoming our future guests.”The event builds on the excitement for the “Downton Abbey” film.The film follows the Crawley family as they prepare for a visit from King George V and Queen Mary in 1927. It premieres in theaters on Friday in the US.1．From the passage, we can learn that ________.A．the guests will stay at Highclere Castle on Christmas EveB．Downton Abbey was filmed at Highclere CastleC．Highclere Castle will offer the guests only B&BD．all the visitors will be invited to have caffee2．The stay will ________.A．be reserved on October 1 at 7 p.m. ETB．provide the guests with dinner and coffee in the libraryC．allow guests to take 9 dogs at mostD．witness a Christmas ball on November 26, 20193．The passage is probably a(n) ________.A．film review B．family introduction C．travel advertisement D．castle storyBWe’ve known for years that plants can see, hear, smell and communicate with chemicals. Now, reported New Scientist, they have been recorded making sounds when stressed.In a yet-to-be-published study, Itzhak Khait and his team at Tel Aviv University, in Israel, found that tomato and tobacco plants can make ultrasonic(超声的)noises. The plants “cry out” due to lack of water, or when their stems(茎)are cut. It’s just too high-pitched(音调高的)for humans to hear.Microphones placed 10 centimeters away from the plants picked up sounds in the ultrasonic range of 20 to 100 kilohertz(千赫兹). Human hearing usually ranges from 20 hertz to 20 kilohertz. “These findings can alter the way we think about the p lant kingdom,” they wrote.On average, “thirsty” tomato plants made 35 sounds an hour, while tobacco plants made 11. When plant stems were cut, tomato plants made an average of 25 sounds in the following hour, and tobacco plants 15. Unstressed plants produced fewer than one sound per hour, on average.Perhaps most interestingly, different types of stress led to different sounds. The researchers trained a machine-learning model to separate the plants’ sounds from those of the wind, rain and other noises of t he greenhouse. In most cases, it correctly identified whether the stress was caused by dryness or a cut, based on a sound’s intensity and frequency. Water-hungry tobacco appears to make louder sounds than cut tobacco, for example. Although Khait and his colleagues only looked at tomato and tobacco plants, they think other plants also make sounds when stressed.If farmers could hear these sounds, said the team, they could give water to the plants that need it most. As climate change causes more droughts, the y said this would be important information for farmers. “The sounds that drought-stressed plants make could be used in precision agriculture(精准农业),” said Anne Visscher at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, in the UK.Khait’s report also suggest that insets an d mammals can hear the sounds up to 5 meters away andrespond. For example, a moth(蛾子)may decide not to lay eggs on a water-stressed plant. Edward Farmer, at the University of Lausanne, Switzerland, is doubtful. He said that the idea of moths listening to plants is “a little too speculative”.If plants are screaming for fear of their survival, should we be thankful we can’t hear them?4．What did Khait and his team find from their research?A．Plants made low-pitched sounds when in danger.B．Plants were able to produce sounds in response to stresses.C．Plants picked up a wider range of sounds when stressed.D．Plants made ultrasonic noises to communicate with each other.5．How did tomato and tobacco plants react to different stresses according to the text?A．A plant reacted to different stresses with the same sound.B．Cut tomato plants produced more sounds per hour than water-hungry ones.C．Cut tobacco plants seemed to make weaker sounds than drought-stressed ones.D．Tobacco plants might make louder sounds than tomato plants when short of water.6．What’s the main idea of Paragraph 6?A．The potential applications of the research.B．Challenges facing farmers in the future.C．Farmers ‘contributions to the research.D．What the future agriculture will be like.7．The u nderlined word “speculative” in the second-to-last paragraph has the closest meaning to“________”.A．practical B．unsuspected C．unsupported D．complicatedCThe latest sports craze is not even a sport. According to a recent article, “e-sports” are attracti ng a large number of audience.In e-sports, players and teams compete in popular video computer games such as Dota 2 and Ovenvatch. Fans fill arenas to watch the action live on huge television screens.The games have gone way past kids playing against each other while sitting on a sofa at home. The International, a major competition for players of Dota 2, awarded $24 million in prizes, with the winner taking home almost $11 million. A recent e-sports competition attracted more than 80,000 fans to the Olympic Stadium in Beijing, China.I have to admit that I am not a big fan of computer games. I know that some games can be educational, but I think too many kids spend too much time sitting in front of a screen shooting space aliens. I think it would be better if kids spent more time reading or playing real sports such as basketball, baseball and soccer.And please don’t tell me that competitive gaming is real sport because it requires hand-eye coordination. According to my American Heritage Dictionary, a sport is “an activity involving physical exertion and skill.” I don’t think anyone works up much of a sweat playing video games.Too often, regular sports send kids a kind of message. Competition starts early, when lots of kids are not ready for the ups and downs of games. Tryouts and travel teams come next, giving too many kids the message they are “not good” at sports. So lots of kids quit sports and start playing more video games.Maybe everyone in youth sports, including coaches, parents and kids, should think more about the advantages of real sports.8．What are “e-sports” according to the text?A．Sports events on television screens.B．Video computer game competitions.C．The latest sports in the Olympic Games.D．Easy sports games for kids.9．What might the au thor think of “e-sports”?A．They are not instructive.B．They should be banned in school.C．They need too much time and money.D．They have some negative influence on children.10．What does the underlined word “exertion” in Paragraph 5 mean?A．Growth. B．Fitness.C．Effort. D．Energy.11．What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?A．To introduce a new kind of sport.B．To introduce a competition held in Beijing.C．To explain the importance of playing sports.D．To call on people to pay more attention to traditional sports.DLanguage is perhaps the most distinctive of human characteristics, but its evolution remains a mystery. Our communication is enhanced by turn — taking (轮流说话) — or the orderly exchange of communicative signals — which has been found to be largely universal across cultures. But this turn-taking behavior is actually widespread across the animal kingdom, according to a large-scale review of studies published in the journal Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences.In the study, the researchers stressed that one of the marks of turn-taking across all species is fine timing. For example, in some species of songbird, the gap between the calls of two different birds is often less than 50 milliseconds. On the other hand, communication in some species is much slower. As for sperm whales, the gap between each vocal exchange is around two seconds. In humans, there is usually a gap of roughly 200 milliseconds between turns in a conversation.While many studies have focused on turn-taking behavior in animals, we still know very little about it, partly because the reports are so varied that large-scale cross-species comparison is all but impossible, according to the researchers. “Overall, direct comparisons of turn-taking skills of non-human animals in relation to language origins are highly limited by lack of data, the application of different terms, different study methods and study environments, the authors wrote in the study.” Furthermore, investigations have so far mainly been focusing on single call types or songs of species, limiting a deeper understanding of the variability of turning-taking systems found in the animal kingdom.In light of this, the researchers proposed a new framework for future studies on turn-taking to make cross-species comparisons easier. “The goal of the framework is to promote large-scale cross-species comparisons”, Kobin Kendrick, from the University of York’s Department of Language and Linguistic Science, said in a statement. “Such a framework wi ll allow researchers to trace the history of this evolution of remarkable turn-taking behavior and solve old questions about the origins of human language.”12．What can we learn from the text?A．Turn-taking behavior in all species is well timed.B．Language is the least distinctive of human characteristics.C．The gap between turns in a human conversation is about two seconds.D．Relatively speaking, the gap between the calls of two birds is longer.13．What makes the non-human animal language studies difficult according to the text?a. Lack of data.b. Lack of money.c. Varied reports and studies.d. The application of different terms.A．a b c B．b c dC．a b d D．a c d14．We can infer from the text that .A．cross-species comparison is the hardest to study in the evolution of languageB．turn-taking in animal communication between species is difficult to findC．non-human language studies should be focused on single call typesD．the turn-taking behavior of animals is similar to that of human beings15．Why did the researchers put forward a new framework?A．To encourage more studies on the evolution of turn-taking behaviour.B．To build a link between animal communication and human language.C．To make large-scale cross-species comparisons of turn-taking easier.D．To guide other researchers in how to study animal communication.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。

AThailand's southern beaches attract travelers with their clean water and dramatic cliffs (峭壁), but there's more to explore in this Southeast Asian country.Lopburi for history buffsBypass the tour groups at the ancient city of Ayutthaya and head two hours north of the capital, Bangkok, for a peaceful walk through Thai history. Lopburi, one of Thailand's oldest cities, boasts Khmer-era temples and the uncrowded ruins of King Narai's Palace, which was built in the 1600s. It's also known for the monkeys that gather at Phra Prang Sam Yot temple in the center of town.Ban Krut for beach bumsIn Ban Krut, travelers will find one of the cleanest and quietest stretches of white sandy beach within driving distance of Bangkok.

But last June, Walmart told Alaskan fisheries that it would not be buying salmon sourced from fisheries not certified by the Marine Stewardship Council.Now Walmart is caught between two forces–Alaska fisheries and “buy American”enthusiasts who think the company’s first responsibility should be to American industry, and environmentalists who think Walmart should make as strong a commitment to environmentally sustainable industry as possible.But from a broader perspective, this latest noise is an object lesson in why the concept of corporate (公司的) responsibility has shortcomings to begin with. Walmart—like most successful corporations—is pretty good at offering products their customers want at low prices. When it tries to promote broader public goods, like a clean environment, or lower unemployment for veterans, it’s nowhere near as successful. Here’s a few of Walmart’s more notable corporate-responsibility confusion:The Buy-American Debacle: Walmart’s first major corporate responsibility push was an effort in the 1980s to promote American-made products. But the campaign ran aground (搁浅) after a NBC investigation revealed that the company was actually selling products manufactured in India as “Made American.”The Going Green Campaign: Walmart launched on a sustainability campaign aimed at making the retail giants operations much more environmentally friendly. Though Walmart and the media have done much to raise visibility of these efforts, the actual results have been lacking. According to a recent report from the Institute for Local Self Reliance (ILSR), Walmart’s sustainability campaign is much more focused on making its operations appear green to customers than stopping doing things that would actually help the environment, like reducing emissions.In reality, these examples simply show that one can’t realistically expect corporations to behave in a way that is opposite to making profits. But that doesn’t mean that the goal of fishing sustainability isn’t achievable. It’s just that the corporate structure isn’t our best means of achieving them—the government is.4．What is the function of the Marine Stewardship Council?A．To advocate sustainable fishing practices. B．To persuade supermarkets to buy its products.C．To solve disagreements between fisheries and supermarkets.D．To guarantee the safety of goods supplied by supermarkets.5．According to the author, Walmart’s corporate responsibility is ________. A．confusing B．heavyC．environmental-friendly D．unsatisfying6．From Paragraph 5, we know ________.A．Walmart’s sustainability campaign worked wellB．Walmart might have profited at the cost of the environmentC．ILSR’s report was part of Walmart’s campaign planD．Walmart had no intention to protect the environment at all7．Who should be mainly responsible for achieving the goals of fishing sustainability? A．The company structure B．WalmartC．The government D．The Marine Stewardship CouncilCA cloudless Southern California sky looms over the Pro Park Course for the Pro Skate Park Series. Here to compete are some of the top female skaters in the world. The women skaters range in age from early adolescence to early 30s, but in a sport that embraces youth, there is one who stands out. At 8 years old, Sky Brown, would be the youngest skater, male or female, ever to compete at this series.She is known to some — a minor star of the viral age. When her first video was posted to YouTube, Sky initially gained a little internet fame as a premature and level-headed 4-year-old — highly intelligent, well-spoken beyond her years, hugely talented, and yet grounded. Four years later, it was announced that she would be competing at Huntington Beach. Still, the question remains: Is she truly ready, or will this be another case where reality comes crashing down hard on all the hype?And then, it turns out to be anything but. Sky goes out and presents one surprise after another. Commentators Neal Hendrix and Chris Pastras are left in awe, “Half of the pros can't do.” The only thing that makes the prodigy look like a kid is her size. In every other regard, she holds her own with skaters 10 and 20 years her senior. Before the competition at Huntington, Sky was a curiosity. After, she is a competitor.Sky's first memory of a skateboard is seeing her father, Stuart, doing a few tricks in front of the family home. “It always looked really fun,” says Sky. “I just kept begging to try it.” Sky progressed quickly, although she never had a formal coach. Somehow she just had the knack. Every movement, every shift in weight, every push and pull of body on board, she absorbed. Then, she did it herself.“You get so close to making it,” she says of her process, “and think you're about to land it, and then it takes you 100 more times. I'm always saying to my parents, 'Justone last try.'” If anyone was pushing, striving to get better, it was Sky herself, learning new tricks the same way everyone else does — by trying, failing, falling, and getting back up again.8．What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 2?A．To show Sky’s early experience.B．To show Sky’s talents from varied aspects.C．To show the public’s doubt about Sky’s competence.D．To show the public’s recognition of Sky’s performances.9．What do we know about Sky?A．She equals the senior skaters in the competition.B．She looks like a professional skater in terms of her figure.C．She participates in a competition inappropriate for the young.D．She has already become a household name before the competition.10．What is the main reason for Sky’s achievements?A．Her parents push her too hard.B．She practices hard and never quits.C．Her coach is very strict with her.D．Her father exerts a strong influence on her.11．What is the best title for the text?A．A Rocky Road Leads to Internet FameB．A Strong Competitor Stands out from CrowdC．An 8-year-old Skater Amazes the WorldD．A Wonder Shows at the Pro Skate Park SeriesDDon't get mad the next time you catch your teenager texting when he promised to be studying. He simply may not be able to resist. A University of lowa(UI) study found teenagers are far more sensitive than adults to the immediate effect or reward of their behaviors. The findings may help explain why the initial rush of texting may be more attractive for adolescents than the long-term pay off of studying."For the teenager, 'the rewards are attractive." says Professor Jatin Vaidya，an author of the study. "They draw adolescent. Sometimes, the rewards are a kind of motivation for them. Even when a behavior is no longer in a teenager's best interest to continue, they will, because the effect of the reward is still there and lasts much longer in adolescents than in adults ."For parents,that means limiting distraction (分心的事情）so teenagers can make better choices. Take the homework and social media dilemma: At 9 p.m., shut off everything except a computer that has no access to Facehook or Twitter, the researchers advise. "I'm not saying they shouldn't be allowed access to technology," Vaidya says. But some help in netting their concentration is necessary for them so they can develop those impulse-control skills.”In their study,Vaidya and co-author Shaun Vecera note researchers generally believe teenagers are impulsive（冲动的)，make bad decisions，and engage in risky behavior because the frontal lobes（额叶）of their trains are not fully developed. But the UI researchers wondered. whether something more fundamental was going on with adolescents to causebehaviors independent of higher-level reasoning."We wanted to try to understand the brain's reward system how it change from chillhood to adulthood," Says Vaidya, who adds the reward character in the human brain is easier than decision-making. “We've been trying to understand the reward process in adolescence and whether there is more to adolescence behavior than an under-developed frontal lobe,”he adds.For their study ,the researchers persuaded 40 adolescents, aged 13 and 16,and 40 adults, aged 20 and 35 to participate.In the future,researchers hope to look into the psychological and neurological（神经学上的）aspects of their results.12．What does the passage mainly tell us?A．The initial rush of texting is less attractive for adolescents than the long-term pay off of studying.B．Always, rewards are attractive to teenagers.C．Resistance can be controlled well by adolescents.D．Getting rewards is the greatest motivation for adolescents to study.13．Which statement agrees with Vaidya's idea?A．The influence of the reward is weak in adolescents.B．Parents should help children in making decisions.C．Children should have access to the Internet.D．Children need help in refocusing their attention.14．What result does teenagers' brain underdevelopment lead to?A．Doing things after some thought.B．Making good decisions.C．Joining in dangerous actions.D．Escaping risky behavior.15．How did the researchers carry out their study?A．By making a comparison of brain examinations.B．By examining adults’ brain.C．By examining teenage brain.D．By building the train’s reward system.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。
