文章主要讲述了英国一所学校将更改上学时间，这样会改善学生的学习效果。

13. A private sixth grade is set to start its lessons at 1:30 p. m. every day because the school’s teacher thinks his students will study better after a morning lie-in (睡懒觉). Instead of rising early for a 9: 00 a. m. start, students at the £15, 000-a-yearHampton Court House, in East Molesey, Surrey,will get to enjoy a lie-in and work from1:30 p. m. until 7:00 p. m. Head teacher Guy Holloway says the move for all sixth grade students set to begin from September, has been made according to research by scientists. He predicts that not only will his students aged 16 and upwards get great night’s sleep, but their efficiency will also be improved.
The co-educational school will have the latest start time in the U. K., and will be the only one to begin lessons in the afternoon.
Experts say young people are programmed to get up later, and that rather that laziness it is simply a shift in their body clocks. There are 168hours in a week and how productive they are depends on how they choose to use those hours,” said Mr. Holloway, “At Hampton Court House we don’t think we have the answer for everybody; it’s about what works in our school. We want to get them into a condition where they can get great sleep and study well,” He said students would also benefit from reduced journey times as they travel to and from school after rush hour.1. What was the usual start time at Hampton Court House?
A ．9:00 a. m.

C ．7:00 p. m.2. When will the new start time begin?

本文介绍了有许多缔约国的《濒危野生动植物种国际贸易公约》签署了一项新协议，旨在管理鲨鱼贸易。

15. A new rule has been passed that will protect more than 50 of the world’s shark species, many of which are endangered. The deal was signed by the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES), which manages how people deal in plants and animals. Most of the world’s countries are members of CITES. The deal puts 60 shark species under the protection of CITES.
One of the reasons sharks are endangered is that they are hunted for their fins (鳍), which are used in shark fin soup. The sharks that are hunted most for their fins include blue and tiger sharks. Thanks to this agreement, around 95% of sharks that people catch for their fins are now protected. This means that anyone trying to buy or sell these types of sharks must show an official document. These official documents will only be given to people or companies who have proved to scientists that their business doesn’t endanger wildlife or damage the ocean.
Conservationists hope the deal will protect biodiversity in the sea. Sharks are very important for this because they are usually apex animals that hunt, kill and eat other animals. That means they are at the highest point of the “food chain” — in other words, nothing else eats them. If sharks were to disappear, it would seriously affect sea life lower down the food chain, as some species’ numbers would increase fast. This could affect the delicate balance of all sea life.
Some biologists have criticised the new rule. They think that making it harder to fish for sharks will make their fins even more expensive, which would encourage illegal fishing. However, Shawn Heinichs from Only One, a group that campaigns to protect the ocean, called it “The biggest win in the history of ocean species”.
1. Why is the new deal made?
A．To control the trade in sharks.B．To preserve biodiversity in the sea.
C．To ban people from fishing for sharks.D．To protect endangered plants and animals.
2. What does the underlined word “apex” probably mean in paragraph 3?
A．Frightening.B．Major.C．Dangerous.D．Top.
3. What can be inferred about the new rule from the last paragraph?
七、阅读理解
A ．It can prevent illegal fishing.
B ．It is a debatable deal.
C ．It does wonders for ocean species.
D ．It is questioned by most biologists.4. Which can be the best title for this text?
A ．Nations Sign Up to Save Sharks
B ．New Rules Benefit Life in the Ocean
C ．Sharks Are Vital to Ocean Biodiversity
D ．CITES Aims to Protect Ocean Species

文章介绍了伟大建筑作品除了具有美感以外，还要有耐久性和功能性。

17. What makes a work of architecture great? Most people would argue that aesthetics (美感) are the most important. 1 However, Roman architect Marcus Vitruvius Pollio believed that we should also consider durability and function when assessing a structure. The Rostonville Library in my city is a great example of Vitruvius’s principles.
Constructed entirely of granite—a hard and tough stone, the library is durable. It can withstand environmental pollution. For example, it is resistant to acid rain. Moreover, its granite structure is stable so it’s more likely to survive an earthquake. 2 It uses solar energy for heating and a
rooftop garden for cooling.
3 Providing free access to print and digital information, it conveys a feeling of openness and accessibility. Furthermore, the entire library is
on one level, and it has an open design—there are no inner walls or dividers. In addition, large windows let in plenty of natural light, so it’s easy to see and get to each department within the library.
Finally, the library is beautiful, with aesthetically pleasing details both inside and out. The large windows are copper-framed (铜框的). The copper color provides an interesting contrast against the color of the granite structure and it will remain as the copper ages. Growth from the rooftop garden, which reaches down the sides of the building, adds to the aesthetics of the building. 4
Durability, functionality and beauty make the Rostonville Library a great structure. Architects who follow Vitruvius’s principles help to make the city more pleasant to live in. 5
A．The library is also sustainable.
B．It is true that beauty is critical.
C．This is not the only concern of the architects.
D．The library was designed with functionality in mind.
E．It softens the lines of the structure and helps it to fit into its natural surroundings.
F．Plus，the library was built on the edge of the city park，surrounded by native plants.
G．Buildings that fulfill these criteria offer both peace of mind and beauty for their users.
