Some may turn up their noses at eating meat that was once more common in pet food than pies． Others may raise an eyebrow or even an objection to being served one half of their country’s coat of arms．Kangaroo may not be to everyone’s taste, but if some of the country’s leading scientists have their way, it could soon be leapfrogging beef as Australia’s favourite meat．People have been eating kangaroo for some 40, 000 years, and in the last 10 years consumption has doubled． It is very healthy meat: free﹣range, free of chemicals, andfed by a natural diet． It is also exceptionally low in fat; a kangaroo meat has less than two percent fat whereas a typical beef steak has between ten and twenty percent． It may not sizzle on a barbeque like a beef T﹣bone does, but it is rich in iron, full of protein, and highin Conjugated Linoleic Acids （CLAs） that can reduce heart disease and obesity． Research conducted by Clare Engelke at the University of Western Australia showed that kangaroo can have up to five times more CLAs than other meat．Kangaroo farmers already harvest three million kangaroos each year and Dr． Kelvin George, a leading wildlife consultant, is keen to see this figure increase．“Kangaroos are soft﹣footed animals that damage plants far less than cloven﹣hoofed cattle, ” he says．“They do not hard en the all﹣important layer of the soil．”Dr． George is not the only expert to identify the environmental benefits of farming kangaroos．A report by economist Professor Ross Garnaut argues that Australia’s farmanimal industry is a greater contributor to climate change than the coal industry． Methane emitted by sheep and cows accounts for about 11percent of Australia’s greenhouse gases． A switch from cattle to kangaroo could change this: kangaroos produce very little amounts of the gas．Many cattle farmers, however, are unimpressed by Garnaut’s report． A quick scan of farming websites reveals counter﹣arguments ranging from a lack of consumer interest in kangaroo meat to the inaccuracy of the methane emission figures． Charlie McElhone from the Natio nal Farmers’ Federation argues that a switch from moo to roo could seriously damage Australia’s meat export industry．Ultimately it will be left to consumers to determine whether kangaroo steaks are on or off the menu． If consumer demand fails to match the supply, this could cost farmers millions of dollars each year． It could be argued, however, that the cost of ignoring kangaroo meat may be far greater．（1）In this text， the writer presents the kangaroo as________．A.a symbol of freedom．B.a marketable product．C.an endangered species．D.an environmental problem．（2）Why is the coal industry mentioned in this text？________A.To give an example of an industry in decline．B.To show the energy needs of large industries．C.To provide a comparison with the farm animal industry．D.To present an alternative viewpoint to that of Garnaut．（3）What is the cattle﹣farming community’s response to Garnaut’s report？________A.Cattle farmers are debating the report’s findings．B.Cattle farmers have shown no interest in the report．C.Cattle farmers are eager to engage Garmaut in discussion．D.Cattle farmers are willing to follow Garmaut’s suggestions．（4）Who will decide the production of kangaroo meat？________A.Consumers．B.Kangaroo farmers．C.Environmental experts．D.University researchers．【答案】BCAA【考点】阅读理解综合【解析】本文是一篇社会文化类阅读，文章主要介绍了有些人可能会对吃肉嗤之以鼻，这种肉在宠物食品中曾经比馅饼更为常见．另一些人可能会对自己国家一半的军大衣表示不满甚至反对．袋鼠肉可能不是每个人都喜欢，但如果这个国家的一些顶尖科学家有他们的方法，它可能很快就会超越牛肉成为澳大利亚最受欢迎的肉类．【解答】（1）B．细节理解题．根据“People have been eating kangaroo for some 40，000 years，and in the last 10 years consumption has doubled．．”可知在这篇文章中，作者介绍了袋鼠作为可出售的产品．故选B．（2）C．细节理解题．根据“A report by economist Professor Ross Garnaut argues that Australia’s farm animal industry is a greater contributor to cli mate change than the coal industry．”可知本文中提到了煤炭行业是为了提供与农场动物产业的比较．故选C．（3）A．推理判断题．根据“Many cattle farmers， however， are unimpressed by Garnaut’s report． A quick scan of farming websites reveals counter﹣arguments ranging from a lack of consumer interest in kangaroo meat to the inaccuracy of the methane emission figures．”可知养牛的农民们正在讨论该报告的发现．故选A．（4）A．推理判断题．根据“Ultimately it will be left to consumers to determine whether kangaroo steaks are on or off the menu”可知消费者将决定袋鼠肉的生产．故选A．4.

weight，因此从句谓语动词的单复数要根据先行词的单复数确定，另外这里说的是一般的情况，由此可知此处应该填单数第三人称形式．3． possibly．考查副词．此处用副词形式修饰谓语动词can control．意为“太多”．5． of．考查介词．此处意为“下面的这些建议可能会对你有些帮助”，be of help=be helpful，意为“有帮助”，由此可知此处要填介词of．6．

It is not accepted for entrance to universities.For young English learners, there are two new TOEFL tests. The TOEFL Junior Test is for youngpeople between 11 and 15 years old. And the TOEFL Primary Test is for those over the age of eight.IELTS tests academic and general language skills The IELTS has two forms. The Listening and Speaking sections are the same for both forms. In the Reading and Writing sections, however, there are two different tests.The Academic IELTS uses topics and materials covered in undergraduate, graduate, or professional programs.The General IELTS uses topics and material from everyday books, newspapers andmagazines.1.

According to the passage, which description is Not right?A. The TOEIC test includes questions coming from real situations like attending a company meeting.B. Many U.S. universities require the TOEFL IBT for international student admissions.C. The Academic IELTS uses topics and materials covered in undergraduate, graduate, or professional programs.D.

The writer wrote the article mainly to ___________.A. make an introduction about three populartestsB. place an advertisement for three popular testsC. give a business talk about three popular testsD. give a lesson on three popular testsBNASA on Thursday announced the discovery of Kepler-452b, the most Earth-like planet ever found.Located 1,400 light-years from our planet, NASA called it “Earth 2.0”, because it’s the first planet discovered in the habitable zone of a G star similar to our sun. “We can think of Kepler-452b as an older, bigger cousin to Earth, providing an opportunity to understand and reflect upon Earth’s evolving environment,” said Jon Jenkins, the Kepler data analysis lead at NASA's Ames Research Center.The planet is 5 percent farther away from its star than Earth is to the sun, making for a slightly longer year of 385 days, but gets similar light because its sun is20 percent brighter than our own.“The sunshine from this star would feel very similar to the sunshine from our star,” Jenkins told reporters.NASA believes the planet has a mass about five times more massive than Earth’s, with a rocky surface below a thicker atmosphere than our own. Gravity would be about twice as strong on Kepler-452b as it is on Earth, NASA said.The planet is located in the Kepler-452 system in the constellation Cygnus (天鹅座). Its sun has the same surface temperature as our own, but has a diameter that is 10 percent larger.While NASA scientists have no idea if Kepler-452b’s atmosphere is conducive to life, they do know that there has been plenty of time for organisms to develop.“It’s awe-inspiring to consider this planet spent 6 billion years in the habitable zone of its star, which is longer the age of the Earth,” Jenkins said. “That isconsiderable time and opportunity for life to arise somewhere on its surface or oceans if all the necessary condi tions for life exist on this planet.”4. The reason why NASA called Kepler-452b “Earth 2.0” is that ___________.A. it is 5 percent farther away from its star than Earth is to the sunB. it has a mass about five times more massive than Earth’sC. it’s the first planet discovered in the habitable zone of a G star similar to our sunD. it is longer the age of the Earth5. According to the passage, we know that ____________.A. Kepler-452b is located in the constellation CygnusB. Kepler-452b’s atmosp here is conducive to lifeC. gravity would be about twice as strong on Earth as it is on Kepler-452bD. the sunshine from Kepler-452b would feel very different from the sunshine from earth6. The underlined part “habitable zone” in the last paragraph refers to ___________.A. a large area which is different from othersB. a small area which is the same as othersC. a large area which is good enough for people to live inD. a small area which is hard for people to live in7. W hat type of writing is the text? It’s ____________.A. an exhibition guide.B. an art show review.C. a science fictionD. a news reportCAre you trying to learn a new language in a foreign land? You might be better off if you stopped looking at that picture of your family and friends.New research from Columbia University found that prompting someone who islearning a new language with images and reminders of their own culture could temporarily ruin everything that the brain was trying to build.When native Chinese students were asked to talk with a Caucasian avatar (白种人的虚拟头像) and a Chinese avatar, their English skills were so different. Simply exposing students to a Chinese person affected their ability to speak English. Subjects who talked with the Chinese version felt more comfortable in their speech, but they produced 11% fewer words per minute. They actually became less fluent speakers.To make sure it wasn't just the avatar, researchers also showed people random images of China while the participants told a story. When pictures of their homeland appeared, fluency dropped 16% and volunteers were 85% more likely to use a literal translation, for example, calling pistachios “happy nuts”, because that's literally what theChinese word for pistachio means.When the students were shown pictures of fish with one swimming ahead of the others, their culture would change how they look at the photo. With Chinese prompts (提示), like photos of the Great Wall or Chinese Dragon, etc. they saw more students thinking that the fish was being chased, while an American prompt, like pictures of Marilyn Monroe or Superman, saw those students believing that it was a leader fish. Why are our cultural symbols Marilyn Monroe and Superman?The bottom line is: when attempting to learn a new culture it is far better to surround yourself withthat culture than create an island of the old one.8. Why does the author use a question in the first paragraph?A. To raise a question.B. To arouse readers’ awareness.C. To introduce the topic.D. To tell a story.9. The underlined word “pistachios” in the fourth paragraph refers to ___________.A. picturesB. a kind of foodC. volunteersD. an image10. From the passage we can infer that ___________.A. with Chinese prompts, more students thought that it was a leader fishB. with an American prompt, more students thought that the fish was being chasedC. different images would change with different peopleD. different cultures would affect how students look at the photo11. According to the research, which isa better way for a student in a foreign land to learn a new culture?A. To surround himself with that culture.B. To create an island of the old one.C. To see random images of China.D. To talk with a Caucasian avatar.D Just three days after hitting the screen across China, the Chinese animation (动画) film “Monkey King: Hero is Back”aroused enthusiasm among audience and ticket sales have exceeded（超过）100 million yuan ($16.11 million).Web celebrities and many fans even posted topics about the film on China’s Twitter-like Weibo, at which heated discussion are sparked.“Monkey King: Hero is Back” is based on the household legend of the Monkey King, but tells a not-so familiar story. However, it’s still a Chinese style heroic legend and an exciting adventure against evil and darkness in troubled times, according to Lu Wei, the producer.“Monkey King is China’s super hero. It is so popular among Chinese audience because they long for and cherish our own superhero,” said Tian Xiaopeng, the director.Some media also put on a lot of comments fromforeigners.“He’s never dead, he’s just fallen asleep. We all need a hero to look up to, to give us hope and courage when it is needed. We grew up listening to his tales, his great adventures and heroic deeds. What makes a true hero is not just helping people when one has the power, but having the courage to stand up against the evil even without power. And this is what the film is about. When the hero loses his power and armor, when he is nothing more than an ordinary monkey, what would he do to protect the one he loves? This is also about a group of Chinese dream chasers trying to keep the beacon of hope lit even though being in t he most unfavorable situations” from Tumblr. “Though the film was injected with a little bit of Hollywood, its bold and creative story has attracted several Chinese cinema aficionados.” from Yibada.One netizen posted after watching the film: “The film sets a new high-bar for the domesticanimation film, when I walked out of the theater,I was crying.”12. According to the director’s opinion, the film is so popular among Chinese audience because_______.A. Chinese audience long for and cherish his own superheroB. the film is based on the household legend of the Monkey KingC. the Chinese need a hero to look up to, to give them hope and courageD. the film was injected with a little bit of Hollywood13. According to the passage, it can be inferred that _________.A. the film is still a Chinese style heroic legendB. the film is well-receivedC. the film tells us the fact that what makes a true hero is to help people when one has the powerD. the film only aroused enthusiasm among Chinese audience14. After watching the film, the netizen mentioned in the last paragraph was _________.A. very sadB. deeply movedC .very crazy D. deeply gloomy15. Why does the writer mention Weibo, Tumblr and Yibada?

AThe traditional Chinese lunar calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms. Cold Dew(寒露), the 17th solar term of the year, begins this year on Oct 8 and ends on Oct 23.Here are some things you should know about Cold Dew.Foggy autumnTemperatures drop significantly in October. When the cold air meet autumn rain, the abundant water vapor in the air soon reaches saturation（饱和）, and then it turns into misty rain or fog. When the humidity is high, there will be foggy regions formed in many areas of China. Season for fishingPeople always say that fishing in shallow water in autumn does make sense. That’s because during the Cold Dew period, temperatures decrease quickly and sunshine cannot reach the deep water thoroughly. Fish all swim to shallow water areas where the water temperature is relatively high.Season for eating pomegranates（石榴）and hawthorns（山楂）.Pomegranates are ripe during Cold Dew. Pomegranates have been cherished for their extreme beauty, flavor, color, and health benefits for centuries.Extracts of the hawthorns have long been used in herbal medicine. The antioxidants in hawthorn are thought to improve heart health by strengthening blood vessels and stimulating blood flow.Season for drinking chrysanthemum（菊花）wineChrysanthemum is the iconic flower of Cold Dew. To prevent autumn dryness, many regions in China have the custom of drinking chrysanthemum wine. This is a tradition of the Double Ninth Festival , which often falls around Cold Dew.A great time for hikingDuring Cold Dew, North China takes on a look of late autumn with white clouds, red leaves and early frost. On the day of the Double Ninth Festival, people often climb hills with cornels, akind of plant. This custom aims to dispel evils（驱邪）, and originated in the Eastern Han Dynasty (AD25-220).21. During Cold Dew period people can fish in shallow water because ___________.A. Temperatures decrease gradually.B. The water becomes warmer and warmer.C. The shallow water temperature is relatively high.D. Foggy regions are formed in many areas of China.22. The underlined word “cherished” in paragraph four can be replaced by ________.A. lovedB. keptC. gatheredD. protected23. People in parts of China have the custom of drinking chrysanthemum wine because they want to_________.A. drive off bad spirits.B. improve heart health.C. guard against seasonal dryness.D. celebrate the Double Ninth Festival.24. From the last paragraph we can infer that _________.A. The Double Ninth Festival often falls on Cold DewB. People often climb hills with family during Cold Dew.C. The Double Ninth Festival is to honor an ancient poet.D. Climbing hills on the Double Ninth Festival has a long history.BI moved to the Spanish capital, Madrid, nearly two months ago. I am here for a year teaching English in a secondary school as a language assistant. Before I arrived I thought I would be able to adapt to Spanish culture very easily, but my previous expectations have been very different from the reality of Spanish life.Firstly, I didn´t realize how difficult it would be to adapt to the Spanish day and the timings of meals. Spanish 'midday' is at 14:00, meaning lunch is never before then. My expectation was that I would be eating lunch at 12:00-13:00, but most days it´s 15:30 before I eat lunch. The same applies to dinner or tea. In the UK，dinner is between 18:00 and 19:00, but now that dinner time is 21:30.late of course means that Spaniards go to bed so much later. It is such a British thing to go to bed at 22:00! Also, because everything happens later in Spain, the evening socializing time, especially at the weekend, is very late!Queuing politely and being cautious around strangers is also something that is very British. I realized this when I arrived in Spain. I took it for granted that queuing patiently is the norm, but this definitely isn´t the case in Spain. If there´s a free table in a restaurant, you quickly take it, even if there´s other people who have been waiting longer than you. However, the lack of ´Britishpoliteness´isn´t all bad, as it reflects how Spaniards aren´t timid in public; being friendly and talking to someone you´v never met before is considered normal and is encouraged.Finally, the reality of the Spanish diet is very different from my expectations. Food products that are so normal in the UK aren´t nearly as popular here.25. After arriving in Spain, the author thought________.A. teaching English was very easy.B. getting used to Spanish culture was easyC. Spanish life was different from his expectation before.D. getting used to Spanish culture was difficult.26. According to Paragraph 2, British people in Spain will have lunch________.A. at 12:00—13:00B. after 15:30C. before 15:30D. at 15:3027. The underlined word “this” in Paragraph 3 refers to________.A. eating dinner so late.B. going to bed so early.C. eating dinner so early.D. going to bed so late.28.Waiting in line patiently is considered the normal thing in the following countries except____.A. SpainB. BritishC. AmericaD. ChinaCSwiss premium writing tool company Maison Caran d’Ache and luxury watchmaker MB&F recently teamed up to create a limited-edition fountain pen that’s shaped like a rocket ship and comes in a launch pad box. Considering the theme, the price of $19,900 is actually not that much of a surprise.The Astrograph fountain pen is reportedly the most complex writing tool ever designed in the Caran d’Ache workshops. The companies involved in the project said th at it was a massive technical challenge that required four years to develop the concept, plus an extra 12 months to come up with a functional final version. It contains no less than 99 innovative components created specifically for its design, and every unit requires over 500 manual operations.The unique fountain pen was inspired by MB&F founder Maximilian Büsser’s childhood dream of exploring space.

AThe following is a list of notable trees from around the world.The list includes actual trees located throughout the world,as well as trees from myths and trees from fiction.The Lost TreeThe Lost Tree is a remote tree in the Tenere region of the Sahara desert in Northeast Niger.The tree is an acacia (刺槐),lying on a small mound on a sea cap.Despite its small size,due to its remoteness,the tree is an important landmark.Thierry Sabine,founder of the Dakar Rally,died in a helicopter crash nearby the tree.His ashes were spread around the Lost Tree.A small monument next to the tree is dedicated to his memory,reading “For those who go a challenge -for those who stay a dream ”.The Cotton TreeThe Cotton Tree is a historic symbol of Freetown,the capital city of Sierra Leone.According to legend,the “Cotton Tree ”gained importance in 1792when a group of former African American slaves,who had gained their freedom by fighting for the British during the American War of Independence,settled the site of modern Freetown.The Wonder TreeThe Wonder Tree is a dense forest of parent and daughter trees of the ficus species,which pulls larger number of tourist to Pretoria every year.It descended from a central stem of about a thousand years old.It is situated in the Wonderboom Nature Reserve,Pretoria,and two circular walkways currently protect it from pedestrian traffic around its trunk and roots.As it has grown,its outlying branches have rooted themselves around the parent tree.This has repeated until there are now three layers of daughtertrees encircling the mother stem,with13distinct trunks,covering a50-metre area.The Dragon TreeIn California,close to the Church of San Marcos,stands the famous Dragon Tree(22m high,lower trunk diameter10m, estimated weight70t),which is reputed to be a thousand years old(hence its local name,El Drago Milenario:the Thousand-Year-Old Dragon).While no study seems to have confirmed such longevity for the tree because it does not produce annual rings with which to tell their ages,it is the long-time symbol.21.Where did an airplane crash happen？A.Near the Lost Tree.B.Near the Cotton Tree.C.Near the Wonder Tree.D.Near the Dragon Tree.22.Why is the Cotton Tree on the list of four notable trees?A.Because it serves as a landmark for sailors.B.Because it’s attached a historic significance.C.Because it stands in a unique natural reserve.D.Because it’s well-known for its longevity.23.The Dragon Tree’s exact age hasn’t been identified because________.A.its trunk is too thickC.it has no growth ringsB.it’s too old to be measuredD.it doesn’t produce any fruitBWe shouldn’t be asking what happened with Trump.What happened to The Atlantic（美国大西洋月刊）？I’ve been a reader for years,after abandoning Time and Newsweek because of their People-like superficiality（肤浅）.The appearance of considered thoughts at The Atlantic is what kept me there.But since you decided to take sides in the presidential election,stinging hysterical writing is all I find,especially on November9.That’s perhaps understandable The Day After,but,folks,the sky won’t fall.It won’t fall because the ernment’s institutions are designed to prevent irrational outcomes to a good degree.Trust the system a little,if you learned anything from history.I probably do not feel the pain to the same degree as you do, though I am concerned,and on pins and needles.I admit it:I voted for Trump—at the limit of my tolerance for bad taste and unhinged statements.But I did so not because I am an uneducated,violent,intolerant,gun-waving guy—as the press has made habit of defining（定义）Trump supporters.I made my decision based on sensible thinking.I have an MBA.I refuse violence and support gun control.And I’m an immigrant,now a citizen after obtaining green cards twice,all by the legal process.The direct reason to drive me to abandon Hillary Clinton is the fear of the possibility of corruption（腐败）:the history of all countries around the world,since World War II,where an immediate relative followed a president or PM(see my list below).In all cases,either the“succession”was made possible by local corruption,or advanced it as a result,or both.This is to be expected when the vested interests（既得利益者）supporting one person get to take advantage of continued control of the government from behind the scenes by electing the relative.I voted for Trump only because of the smell of corruption resulting from the Clinton Machine.That smell is well documented by Wikileaks and Podesta’s emails describing the Clinton Foundation/State Department connections.To that you can add the past four decades of continuous scandals（丑闻）—why only them with so many?24.What can we infer from the first paragraph?A.Time and Newsweek greatly appealed to the writer.B.The writer shared the same stand with the Atlantic.C.The Atlantic lacks for thought and deepness.D.The writer and The Atlantic vary in election stand.25.What do newspapers think of Trump’s supporters?A.Positively.B.Negatively.C.Rationally.D.Objectively.26.Why did the writer refuse to vote for Hillary?A.Because he didn’t trust the American system.B.Because Hillary Clinton was corrupted.C.Because he was afraid corruption would occur.D.Because Hillary had a corrupted history.27.What can we learn from the passage？A.The writer’s stand was affected by the Internet.B.Trump won the support of newspapers.C.Trump’s supporters had a positive image.D.The writer lacked rational thinking.CNew Zealand performs well in many measures of well-being relative to most other countries in the Better Life Index.New Zealand ranks at the top in health status.It ranks above the average,environmental quality,civic engagement,housing, subjective well-being,education and skills,jobs and earnings, and social connections but below average in income and wealth, work-life balance,and personal security.These rankings are based on available selected data.Money,while it cannot buy happiness,is an important means to achieving higher living standards.In New Zealand,the average household disposable income is lower than the OECD average of USD30563a year.In terms of employment,76%of people aged 15to64in New Zealand have a paid job,above the OECD employment average of67%.Some81%of men are in paid work, compared

terms of the quality of its educational system,the average student scored506in reading literacy,maths and science.This score is higher than the OECD average of486.On average in New Zealand,girls outperformed boys by6points,wider than the average OECD gap of2points.In terms of health,life expectancy at birth in New Zealand is 82years,two years higher than the OECD average of80years.

with stress.Before we go to sleep,we may run over the day in our minds,and worry about tomorrow.We also may watch the news on TV,read the news on our smart phones or tablets,or even answer work emails.But the news is rarely proclaiming (宣告) all the things that are happening in the world and work emails make us feel that we’re still at work.All these things may leave us a stressful sleep.Oor Wullie and The Broons are not the only things I ever read at night.I sometimes read novels but,with the odd exception,I mostly avoid anything that is too mentally taxing or stimulating late at night unless it’s something that inspires me or is clearly helpful in my life.And even if I do read something mentally stimulating,when I feel myself getting tired I lay that book down and pick up trusty old Oor Wullie or The Broons for the last 10 or 15 minutes.Doing this makes my mind quiet and helps ensure that I get a peaceful sleep.Reading about Wullie or Maw and Paw Broon is like a comfort blanket for me.I’d suggest you find light-hearted reading as a comfort blanket at bedtime,especially if you find yourself stressed or depressed a lot of the time,or if you find difficulty winding at the end of a day.It is the thing that can gently turn your attention towards lightness and ease.If your material makes you laugh,then you may feel even better.Several studies show that laughter boosts happy chemicals in the brain.It strengthens the immune system,it’s good for the heart,and it is mos t definitely good for mental health.It even helps us improve our relationships.And if you do happen to pick up a copy of Oor Wullie or The Broons,I hope you find it just as entertaining as I do.24.What can we learn about Oor Wullie and The Broons?A.They make people run over the past days.B.They are the best books to be read before people sleep.C.They are extremely popular with young people.D.They make people feel relaxed and happy.25.What can we know from the text?A.Oor Wullie and The Broons are the author’s favorite books.B.A comfortable blanket makes people go to sleep easily.C.The author sometimes reads something about inspiration.D.Reading something stimulating at night helps get a peaceful sleep.26.What is Paragraph 6 mainly about?A.What material brings us laughter.B.How laughter affects our health.C.What benefits laughter brings to us.D.Why laughter is good for us.27.What’s the main purpose of the text?A.To show the importance of reading before sleeping.B.To prove the importance of a good mood before sleeping.C.To tell us how to make ourselves stay relaxed before sleeping.D.To explain how to choose a book worthy to be read before sleeping.CSometimes people call each other “scared-cat”.But have you ever thought about this expression?When a cat is frightened,its heart starts beating faster,its muscles get tense and there are changes in the chemicals in its bloodstream.Although the cat doesn’t realize this,its body is getting ready for action.If the danger continues,the animal will do one of two things.It will protect itself,or it will run away as fast as it can.Something like this also happens to people.When we are excited,angry or scared by other feelings,our bodies go through many physical changes.Our hearts beat faster,and our muscles get tense.All of these changes make us more alert and ready to react.We,too,get ready to defend ourselves or run.Human beings,however,have a problem that animals never face.If we give way to our feelings and let them take over,we can get into trouble.Have you ever said something in anger or hit somebody and regretted it later?Have you ever shouted at a teacher,told somebody you were lonely,or said you were in love,and then wished later you had kept your mouth shut?It isn’t always clever to express you r feelings freely.Does this mean that it’s smarter to always hide our feelings?No!If you keep feelings of anger or sadness hidden away or bottled up inside,your body stays tense.Physical illness can develop,and you can feel disturbed badly inside.It can a ctually be bad for your health.It isn’t good to keep pleasant feelings inside either; all feelings need to be expressed.Feelings that you keep all bottled up inside don’t just go away.It’s as if you bought some bananas and put them in a cupboard.You might not be able to see them,but before long you’d smell them.And if you opened the cupboard,chances are that you’d see little fruit flies flying all over them.They are bad.You can try to treat feelings as if they were bananas in the cupboard.You can hide the m and you can pretend they don’t exist,but they’ll still be around.And at last you’ll have to deal with them,just like those bananas.28.When people and animals are aroused by fear, .A.they feel very regretful immediatelyB.their muscles get neither tense nor relaxedC.their hearts beat either faster or slowerD.they may get ready to attack or run away29.Why do human beings get into trouble according to the passage?A.They are usually not as alert as animals.B.They sometimes can’t control their feelin gs.C.They always do something wrong to other people.D.They don’t pay attention to their physical changes.30.What can we infer from the passage?A.Holding in your feelings may lead to unpleasant results.B.Bananas stay fresh longer when they are in a cupboard.C.Feelings will gradually disappear when you hold them in.D.It’s good for your health to keep pleasant feelings inside.31.What is the purpose of this passage?A.To tell us that people’s feelings are like bananas in a cupboard.B.To give us some advice on how to express our feelings.C.To help us deal with feelings in a wise and proper way.D.To prove that it isn’t always wise to express our feelings freely.DSome people are so rude!Who sends an e-mail or a text message that just says “Thank you”?Who leaves a voice mail message rather than texts you?Who asks for a fact easily found on Google?Don’t these people realize that they’re wasting your time?Maybe I’m the rude one for not appreciating life’s little politeness.But many social agreed standar ds just don’t make sense to people drowning in digital communication.In texts,you don’t have to declare who you are or even say hello.E-mail,too,is slower than a text.Voice mail is a now impolite way of trying to connect.My father learned this lesson after leaving me a dozen voice mail messages,none of which I listened to.Exasperated,he called my sister to express his dissatisfaction that I never returned his phone calls.“Why are you leaving him voice mail?” my sister asked.“Just text him.”In the age of the smartphone,there is no reason to ask once-acceptable questions about:the weather forecast,a business’s phone number,or directions to a house,a restaurant,which can be easily found on Google Maps.But people still ask these things.And when you answer,they respond with a thank-you e-mail.How to handle these differing standards?Easy.Consider your audience.Some people,especially older ones,appreciate a thank-you message.Others,like me,want no reply.The anthropologist (人类学家) Margaret Mead once said that in traditional societies,the young learnt from the old.But in modern societies,the old can also learn from the young.Here’s hoping that politeness never goes out of fashion but that time-wasting forms of communication do.32.What does the underlined word “Exasperated” mean in the fifth paragraph?A.Worried.B.Surprised.C.Annoyed.D.Tired.33.Why didn’t the writer reply to his father?A.He liked text messages better.B.He enjoyed checking his voice mail.C.He didn’t receive any voice mail messages.D.He didn’t want to talk with his father.34.Which of the following does the writer agree to?A.People needn’t learn from one another in traditional societies.B.Dealing with voice mail should vary with each individual.C.People needn’t turn to Google for help when i n trouble.D.Declaring who you are or saying hello in texts is necessary.35.What’s the best title of this passage?A.Nowadays:what should we do with text messages?B.Nowadays:do you like leaving others a voice message?C.Nowadays:what means should we use in communication?D.Nowadays:do you need a thank-you message?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。

The changes may seem difficult and they may seem to happen quickly. Don’t panic！You will deal successfully with them！You are a young adult now!With more responsibility，you will find more freedom to make your own choices. This is a time to be well informed about your choices so that you can make healthy balanced decisions that will help shape your future. You may already know your career path or you may have no idea at all what you want to do. Both situations are fine！Work hard and the right opportunity will present itself to you.Young adulthood means greater freedom and more choices. You will probably want to beindependent. But try not to shut your family out of your life. You should learn to think of others even though you are old enough to look after yourself. Your family have been with you since you came into this world.It is also perfectly natural in this time for you to spend more time with your friends than your family. Choose your friends wisely. A true friend will stand by you no matter what happens. This period is part of the life cycle. There are some people who will be wit h you throughout lifeˈs journey and there will be some people with whom you part and go separate ways. Leaving school can be hard. The reality is that you may not ever see all of your classmates again.You are a young adult. It is your life. No one can live it for you. The choices that you make from now on will be your choices. So making the right choices will be important to you. Life is for living. Enjoy your life wisely!1.The best title for this passage would be ________.A. The Choices in LifeB. The Key to SuccessC.

Teenagers.B. Teachers.C. Young parentsD. Adults.BLike many authors，I imagined（想象）hundreds of customers would line up to get copies of my first book．I'm afraid to say it didn't quite happen like that．My signing（签名）began at 5pm of a Sunday．Not a single customer came to me．At 6：25pm，a middleaged couple walked into the room．I introduced myself and my book："It's a story of a pilot，my dad，and the lessons he gave me while he was facing a deadly illness．And each lesson in the story becomes a much deeper lesson about life and death．"Their eyes were now fixed on me．There was something different about the way they were looking at me．But I didn't know what else to say．The couple had a short communication．Then the wife told me，"I think we'll get one copy．The reason we're buyingit is because our son killed himself two years ago．Maybe your story will help us get over it．"I shook their hands to thank them for being my first readers．I was silent and tears stood in my eyes．At that very moment，I knew even if I never sold another copy of the book，my four years of writing it had served its purpose．My prayer（祈祷）of asking for the words to move just one person's life had already been answered．Thanks to them，I have come to realize that life is made all in the same way．One challenge…one hurdle（障碍）…one step…and one small success at a time．5.Why did few customers show interest in the author's first book？______A. Because the book wasn't well written．B. Because he didn't put up any posters．C. Because he was an unknown author．D. Because his first book was expensive．6.What did it mean to the author when the couple decided to buy his book？______A. A prizeB. An inspirationC. A delightD. An agreement7.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage？______A. The author took pride in his father very much．B. The couple were the first readers of the author．C.

The book is about the lessons on how to face life and death the author experienced．8.Which of the following is probably the best title for the passage？______A. What a great fatherB. My father's lessonsC. The middleaged readersD. One step at a time．CWhen people argue about whether coffee is good for health, they're usually thinking of the health of the coffee drinker. Is it good for your heart? Does it increase blood pressure? Does it help you concentrate? However, coffee affects the health of the human population in other ways, too.Traditionally, coffee bushes were planted under the canopy（树荫）of taller trees. However, more and more farmers in Latin America are deforesting the land to grow full sun coffees. At first, this increases production because more coffee bushes can be planted if there aren't any trees. With increased production come increased profits.Unfortunately, deforesting for coffee production immediately decreases the local wildlife habitat, because native birds nest and hide from predators（捕食者）in the tall trees and migrating birds rest there.Furthermore, in the long term, the full-sun method also damages the ecosystem because more chemical fertilizers and pesticides（杀虫剂）are needed to grow the coffee. The fertilizers and pesticides kill insects that eat coffee plant, and then the birds eat the poisoned insects and also die. The chemicals kill or sicken other animals as well, and can even enter the water that people will eventually drink.Fortunately, farmers in Central and South America are beginning to grow more coffee bushes in the shade. We can support these farmers by buying coffee with such labels as "shade-grown" and "bird-friendly". Sure, these varieties might cost a little more. But we're paying for the health of the birds, the land, ourselves, and the planet. I think it's worth it.9.Which opinion does the author agree with?A. Shade-grown coffee should be supported.B. People should buy full-sun coffee.C. Farmers should change the places to grow coffee.D. Pesticides should be forbidden in coffee planting.pared with the traditional method, what advantage does the full-sun method have?A. It can protect the ecosystem.B. It can promote people's health.C. It can increase the production of coffee.D. It can provide mare nests for birds.11.How do farmers get more land to grow full-sun coffee?A. . They move to other countries.B. They cut down treesC. They turn grassland into farmland.D. They buy more land from other farmers.12.What can we learn from the passage?A. It is quite worthwhile to buy shade-grown coffee at any cost.B. Farmers all have realized the importance of protecting the environment now.C. The full-sun method does good to the health of human beings in the long run.D. South American farmers are taking action to plant coffee in the traditional way.DTEACH DISADVANTAGED CHILDREN IN QUITO IN ECUADORTeach in nice and beautiful Ecuador（厄瓜多尔）!

To go on a vacation．CMany people feel stressed out about buying and giving gifts around holidays．But have the holidays become too materialistic and more about the gifts than the feelings behind them?Throughout the world，many cultures mark holidays with gifts and food．Holiday traditions bring people together and allow us to feel a part of family and community．The gifts and food that we share are all about expressing a sense of appreciation and joy．The gifts of a few generations ago were probably more common and homemade．Even the people who could afford expensive presents probably didn’t do as much buying and spending as we do today．But with our culture growing more commercial，sometimes the original meaning behind the tradition gets lost．Not only is the pressure on spending money on the right present，but many people also find that when gifts become the focus of a holiday，it puts too much emphasis on receiving．It’s too easy to have high expectations of what’s in that beautifully wrapped box—and that can set anyone up for disappointment．No wonder we often hear about people having the“holiday blues”—feeling sad or empty．Not all people think the holidays are too materialistic，of course．Most appreciate the traditional aspects of the holidays．And some love shopping and are just fine with a11 the giving and receiving．But if you’re feeling a little empty about the holidays，what can you do? One key to a relaxing and meaningful holiday is finding what works best for you，both in terms of gift giving and other holiday traditions．Putting some thought into what the holidays mean to you and then focusing your energies on those aspects that leave you feeling most satisfied can help you let go of the stuff that may be stressing you out．28．What can we learn about the holiday gifts generations ago?A. They were valueless．B. They were highly valued．C. They were given little attention．D. They were more about expressing feelings．29．What is the result of focusing too much on receiving?A. Receivers are often disappointed．B. Gifts become the focus of holidays．C. Our culture grows more commercial．D. Much more money was spent on gifts．30．According to the text，how can we make holidays more meaningful?A. Avoiding giving and receiving gifts．B. Figuring out your real expectations．C. Doing some shopping in the holidays．D. Putting more thought into the gifts to give．31．What can be the best title for the text?A. The Changes in Giving GiftsB. What Stresses You out on Holidays?C. Are the Holidays Too Materialistic?D. The Development of Holiday TraditionsDAsking a patient to hum(哼唱)piano tunes and play fin instrument while undergoing brain surgery(手术)may sound like a strange request from a doctor．However，that is exactly what a team of brain specialists，led by Pilcher，requested Dan Fabbio to do．In 2015，the then 25-year-old musician was diagnosed with a brain tumor(肿瘤)，which was located in the part of the brain known to be active when people listen to and make music．“Removing a tumor from the brain can have significant consequences depending on its location，”Pilcher says．“Both the tumor and the operation can damage tissue and affect communication between different parts of the brain．”Fabbio，therefore，feared the surgery would cause him to lose his musical ability．To prevent that from happening，Pilcher and his colleague designed many tests，including asking Fabbio to listen to piano tunes and hum back during MRI scans．This enabled the physicians to locate the area that is vital for music and language processing and create a 3-D map of Fabbio’s brain．Despite the great starting point，it was not a perfect way to prevent possible damage to the．The only way was to keep the patient awake and ask him to hum piano tunes during the surgery so that the surgeons could identify the areas to avoid．While the surgery went smoothly，the real test came when Fabbio was asked to play a song on his saxophone．The tunehad been simplified to ensure that it would not require too much strength and cause harm to the stitches(缝线)in the brain．He played it faultlessly，and when he finished，the entire operating room erupted in applause．The researchers say that a year after the groundbreaking surgery，the young musician can once again hear tunes in everything—even his electric toothbrush．32．What can we infer from P ilcher’s words in Paragraph 2?A. Fabbio’s brain was seriously damaged．B. The surgery would be a huge challenge．C. Fabbio’s brain parts failed to communicate．D. The surgery had to be performed immediately．33．What’s the major difficulty in Fabbio’s surg ery?A. To keep his brain active．B. To help him overcome fear．C. To protect his musical ability．D. To enable him to play an instrument．34．What does the underlined word“it”in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. Creating a 3-D map of Fabbio’s brain．B. Removing the tumor from Fabbio’s brain．C.

To check the surgery result．C. To make the stitches work easier．D. To locate the vital area for music．三、七选五Gratitude(感恩)is a social feeling．Many people see it as relationship—strengthening because it requires us to see how we’ve been supported and recognized by other people．First，it’s belief o f goodness．We are convinced that there are good things in the world，gifts and benefits we’ve received．The second part of gratitude is figuring out where that goodness comes from．36．It doesn’t come from anything we necessarily did ourselves．Instead，we acknowledge that other people gave us many gifts to help us achieve the goodness in our lives．37．Of course，there are various important reasons．Here are some of them．Gratitude allows us to celebrate the present．38．We notice the positives more，and that enlarge the pleasures you get from life．Instead of adapting to goodness，we celebrate goodness．Gratitude blocks negative feelings．You cannot feel envious and grateful at the same time．39．If you’re grateful，you can’t hate someone for having something that you don’t．Those are very different ways of connecting to the world，and sure enough，research has suggested that people who have high levels of gratitude have low levels of negative feelings．40．That’s because when you’re grateful，you have the sense that someone else has provided for your happiness．You notice a network of relationships of people think it’s worthwhile to help you get to where you are right now．Realizing someone has seen the value in you transforms the way you see yourself．A．They’re contradictory feelings．B．It strengthens positive feelings．C．Gratitude heightens your sense of self-worth．D．Most of the time，it makes you feel confused．E．Gratitude allows us to participate more in life．F．So why gratitude has such effects on people’s lives?G．We recognize the sources of it as being outside of ourselves．第II卷（非选择题）四、短文改错41．假定英语课上老师要求同桌之间交换修改作文，请你修改你同桌写的以下作文。

2018年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试高考英语模拟试卷（浙江卷）第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分35 分）第一节（每小题2. 5 分，满分25 分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项．1. Over the weekend, the New York Times published a story announcing the death of voice mails, quoting a Vonage spokesperson who said that voice mail use had decreased 8 percent from last October to April of this year． The story positions millennials（千禧一代） as being primarily responsible, as the text﹣preferring generation has little patience for sitting through a long, droning message．But there's another element here: awkwardness． A Moth Story SLAM﹣winner Kate Greathead once said, "I'm fine when tell a story in front of 400 strangers, but get dry﹣mouthed when leaving a voice mail．" "In a sense , leaving a voice mail involves everythingwe fear about public speaking﹣with the added discomfort of receiving absolute silence from your audience in an email, " said Joshua Clegg, a psychologist at CUNY's John Jay College of Criminal Justice． The spotlight is on you, which can be panic﹣inducing enough． But in a more traditional public speaking, at least you get feedback from your audience, which means you get a chance to adapt to that response and potentially recover from any missteps． But it isn't so with the voice mail．In an experiment Clegg asked participants to get involved in an impromptu（即兴的）defense of their opinions on a given topic． They were all alone and they were being filmed． "It was like a torture for most of them, and many of them weresweating, fidgeting, looking at the ground, tongue﹣tied, " he said．" Some of them evenhad to quit in the middle because it was too difficult for them．""Of course , things seem to become less awkward when they are familiar, but the voicemail seems to be on its way out so there is little point in getting good at it． "headded． There you have it: permission from a scientist to avoid leaving voice mails andawait the day when the system dies a natural death．（1）Why don't millennials like voice mails？________A Because leaving voice mails usually makes users feel awkward．B Because some new means of communication have been invented．C Because they think others will hackinto the voice mail． D Because they are impatient with a long and noisy message．（2）How might Kate Greathead feel when leaving a voice mail according to Paragraph 2？________A Undistracted．B Uncomfortable．C Happy．D Confused．（3）The author explains "awkwardness" when leaving a voice mail mainly by________．A making a comparison．B using examples．C presenting researchfindings． D giving a definition．（4）What is he author's opinion on voice mails？________A Millennials are to blame for the decrease of voice mails．B Leaving voice mails ismore difficult than public speaking． C Voice mails will disappear naturally． D Themore you are familiar with ones you speak to， the less awkward you'll feel．2. The firemen were back． "Let's take you there to have a look． "Sweet black smoke still hung in the air． My hall was covered in black ruins． My kitchen was almost gone : the cooker, the fridge , the washing﹣machine and the ceiling in pieces by the door． "It could have been worse, "said the fireman, a phrase heard a lot in the last few days． I thanked him for getting there so quickly． ________ he laughed．I phoned a friend at work, but her ll﹣year﹣old son, Oliver, was there． "There's been a fire, um, can we come and stay? ""A fire? Wow, great, see you．"I arrived with two kids and bags full of smelly clothes by taxi． My friend spent the weekend feeding me and telling me everything would be all right． We went back to the flat to examine the destruction． Everything was covered in a layer of thick black dust．Several days later, I started to feel very strange． One day I had a flat, the next day Ididn't． I tried to cheer myself up by thinking that I would be getting Christmas gifts﹣a lot of new shiny kitchen appliances． And I have been told by the insurance company who came and inspected the damage． "It could have been worse, "they said．Returning to my "new home" my daughter presented me with a picture she had drawn, a picture of a house on fire． I had to laugh． But as I was laughing I caught that smell again． I just can't seem to get rid of it． Everywhere I go, I can smell something burning．（1）Where did the author probably stay after the fire？________A In another flat．B At her friend's home．C In a shelter．D At a hotel．（2）What does the underlined sentence mean in the first paragraph？________A The fireman corrected the author's comment．B The fireman was confident of his job．C The fireman performed his duty more quickly than the police．D The fireman was laughing at the author．（3）According to the passage， which of the following is NOT true？________A The author was lucky enough that only the kitchen was burned．B People tried to cheer the author up after the fire．C People would probably send kitchen appliances to the author at Christmas．D After the fire， something went wrong with the author's nose．3. Shocking news makes headlines all the time． Examples include South Korea's presidential scandal and the Pope （教皇） supporting Donald Trump． But the difference between the two is that the former actually happened, while the latter is fake． And although it's fake, the"Pope supports Trump' news was shared over 960, 000 times on Facebook． ________ truly worried the world．But this was only one of many cases in which people have fallen for inaccurate information． And according to David Rapp, a professor at NorthwesternUniversity, US, this has less to do with people's ignorance （无知） and more to do with how the human brain works．Rapp found that when people see a piece of news, they tend to quickly "download" the information into their memory because it's easier than checking it first． "We're bombarded（轰炸） with tons of information all day． It's a nightmare to evaluate all of it, " Rapp told Science Daily． And just as first impressions are hard to change, the incorrect information gets stuck in our memory , even if we later read otherwise． W hen the brain tries to pull up information later, the incorrect information is likely to come to mind more easily than the correction． "Just because you can remember what someone said doesn't make it true, " added Rapp．But our brains only explain the psychological side of things． The way news spreads on social media has also added to the problem． Earlier studies found that people tend to befriend those who are"like﹣minded"on social media． Websites like Facebook also use algorithms （程序算法） to figure out preferences of users in order to feed them what they like to see． Both have helped create what researchers called an "echo chamber"﹣a space where only similar opinions spread around while things that are uncomfortable or challenging are kept outside．"The danger here is that you increasingly end up not seeing what people who think differently see, and in fact not even knowing that it exists, " Eli Pariser, CEO of Upworthy, a US﹣based news website, told US radio station NPR．This is why Rapp suggested that you look critically at information right away, even if it might not fit your ideas．（1）The underlined word "This"in Paragraph 1 refers to________．A South Korea's presidential scandal．B the Pope's support for DonaldTrump． C the wide spread of inaccurate news through the Internet． D shocking news attracts readers' attention．（2）According to David Rapp，________．A our brains remember incorrect information more quickly than correctinformation． B people are easily fooled by fake information because its accuracy is hard to check． C people tend to rely on their first impressions when thinking of information they have received． D people's ignorance is the main reason for the wide spread of fake news．（3）What can be inferred from Paragraph 4 and 5？________A News on websites that use algorithms is unreliable．B The use of algorithms should be banned to prevent fake news．C News on some social media websites is shown based on users' habits．D Only the similar opinions can spread around in the"echo chamber'．第二节（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．选项中有两项为多余选项．4. If you're in a bit of a slump（低迷），it might be due to your brain being a bit bored．（1）_______． It's lacking flavor and could be elevated to amazing levels with just a few basic ingredients． Try the following fun and free activities to stimulate your brain in amazing ways．（2）_______． If you're right﹣handed， become a lefty for the day． Simply switching the hand you usually use for routine tasks gets your brain thinking in a different way． When brushing your teeth， use the opposite hand． Eating？ Use the opposite hand． You can really test yourself and try writing an entire day while using your less frequently used hand．Talk to yourself． Pick one hour a day to verbally discuss anything and everything with yourself． Describe what you see， what you're doing or your afternoon plans vocally instead of keeping it locked up in your head．（3）_______． But talking while thinking is a great brain booster． You might find solutions to problems you've been struggling with．Wash your hair with your eyes closed．（4）_______． The reality is that we often rely too heavily on one or two senses， leaving the others behind． Stimulate your brain and close your eyes while washing your hair， eating， or putting on your clothes． Along with being a fun challenge ，your brain is encouraged to use those other senses that have been forgotten about．Walk on． Just like the body， our brain needs physical exercise too． A steady walk increases blood circulation， which enhances energy production and waste removal． And walking isn't strenuous and can be done anywhere anytime．（5）_______．A． Your senses help your brain make decisions and build connectionsB． Whether a person is right﹣handed or left﹣handed largely depends on chancesC． Sticking to the same daily routine is like eating just white rice every day for your meals D． Sure， you might look like totally crazy， which might make you feel embarrassedE． Use the opposite handF． Talking to ourselves is a valuable tool for thoughtG． Park a little farther from work or make time to walk around the block at the end of the day第三部分语言运用（共两节）第一节完形填空（每小题1. 5 分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项．5.

AMaria Callas was born Maria Anna Sofia Cecilia Kalogeropoulus in New York City in 1923. Her mother wanted her children to study music. Maria had a beautiful voice but she was very shy. Her mother forced her daughter to sing at contests and on radio programs. Maria won many top prizes, but she wasn’t very happy.Maria’s father did not want to pay for expensive music lessons. He and his wife argued. When Maria was 13, she moved to Greece with her mother and sister. Her mother lied about Maria’s age and got her into the Athens Conservatory. Maria studied hard for two years. She had no time for friends or fun.In 1939, Maria began to study with a world-famous Spanish opera singer, Elvira de Hidalgo. She changed Maria’s life. De Hidalgo taught her to sing and act. She also taught her how to fix her hair and choose beautiful clothes. Maria joined Greece’s National Opera at age 16 and took the stage name Maria Callas. At 17, she was a permanent member. She was the youngest person ever to join a European opera company.Soon Callas became an international star. Some called her the “Golden Voice of the Century.” She acted and sang with great emotion. Her style changed opera forever. In 1947, she joined La Scala, the leading opera house in Milan. By age 24, Callas was giving 50 performances a year. Some people said this was not good for her singing voice.Sadly, Callas was not happy. She argued with everyone and did not get along with other singers. She has a problem with her throat and started to lose her singing voice when she was only 35. Maria Callas died in 1977 at the age of 53. We remember her as one of the greatest opera singers of the twentieth century.21. Why did Callas study music when she was very young?A. Her mother forced her to do so.B. Her father taught music lessons.C. She loved to show her beautiful voice.D. She was pleased to win top prizes.22. How did Elvira de Hidalgo change Maria’s life?A. She advised Maria to start a European opera company.B. She helped Maria take the stage name Maria Callas.C. She got Maria into the Athens Conservatory.D. She taught Maria how to sing and act and dress.23. Which of the following might be harmful to Maria’s singing voice?A. She sang with great emotion.B. She gave to many performances.C. She argued with everyone.D. She joined the leading opera house in Milan.24. Which of the following best describes Maria Callas?A. Popular and tolerant.B. Serious and boring.C. Talented but unhappy.D. Honest but unfriendly.BA. buried under snowB. very boredC. entirely relaxedD. extremely busy27. What will Tom probably do after sending the last email?A. Prepare the barbecue.B. Go to the pub.C. Have a rest.D. Call his friends.CIf you stand a short distance away from a high wall and shout, your voice sometimes comes back to you as an echo. This knowledge was made a few years before the last war, when radio waves from a transmitting (发送) station were reflected back from a distant airplane.It was realized that if an apparatus (装置) could be designed to send out radio waves all the time and record the echoes from any approaching airplanes, it would be a wonderful method of defense in war.Scientists set about solving the problem and radar was invented. An apparatus was made which sent out waves in pulses, and the presence of a distant airplane was shown on the screen (this is what we have in a television set). In this way radar station could detect the approach of enemy aircraft.After the war radar was put to peaceful uses. It is now installed at airports to guide airplanes down safely in fog.

He decided to create an alarm clock.“Everybody has to deal with these every day, and they are extremely unpleasant!" he says. He asked different people what they’d like to wake up to instead of a clanging, noisy alarm. A lot of them said, "The smell of bacon.”So Sallin and two classmates invented a new kind of alarm clock: a wooden box with a pig face and a digital clock that uses the smell of cooking bacon rather than sound to wake someone up. He explains, “There’s no danger of burning, because it uses halogen light bulbs（卤素灯泡）instead of a flame for cooking and turns off automatically after ten minutes.”Just a few easy steps are required to set the “alarm.”“What you do is put a couple of frozen pieces of bacon in the night before,” says Sallin. “If you set the alarm for 8:00, it will turn on at 7:50 and slow co ok for ten minutes under the halogen bulbs,” he says. Then the bulbs turn off and a fan blows the smell out through the pig nose.“So instead of an alarm or a beep or a radio, you smell yourself awake,” says Sallin. “Then you can open the door on the side and pull the bacon out and eat it.”When Sallin was a kid, he spent a lot of time making drawings of inventions. “I wanted to make an elevator in my back yard and a special tree house,” he says. “But I never really thought I’d be called an inventor!”32.

What do we know about Sallin?A. He decides to make more alarm clocks.B. He has a special gift for clock designing.C. He has always dreamed of becoming an architect.D. He showed an interest in invention at an early age.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
