Finding the best lighting for study is important for everyone. For the sake of maximizing the use of time and energy, and for the very important goal of preserving eyesight, anyone reading for understanding needs not only adequate light, but light that ensures reading with ease. Only when eye strain （疲劳）is not interfering does the learning process move forward.Desk lampsYou can purchase a large number of stylish desk lamps from lamp stores and online. The products range from precious ones to casual ones, from traditional ones to ultra-modern （超现代的）ones. They feature such desirable additions as dimmer switches and night lights. Some have battery backup in case of power failure and a choice of OttLite bulbs that duplicate natural sunlight.LED desk lampsMetaEfficient reviews the most recommended LED desk lamps. These lamps come in many different styles and brand names and are valued for their directed beam of light, lack of heat and exceptional energy efficiency and brilliance. LED study lamps are made in goose neck and swivel （转圈）styles, as well as the more modern Z-bar and the human-like figure of the Moppel light.Safest desk lampsAccording to Knol, StudyLite is the safest of all desk lamp designs. Not only does it provide LED light, freeing people from UV and IR radiation, but it has been tested to be eye-friendly. It has all the advantages - low cost and long life - of any LED lamps, but it is also equipped with a rechargeable battery. Its design and choice of colors make it desirable formore than its efficiency.（1）What is the feature of Desk lamps？A．They are bought easily online.B．Their prices vary.C．Their styles are various.D．They have satisfactory additions.（2）What do LED lamps and StudyLite lamps have in common？A．Low cost and long life.B．Excellent energy efficiency and brightness.C．Rechargeable batteries.D．Their design and color choice.（3）What is the main purpose of the text？A．To give us some tips on how to protect our eyes.B．To give us some information on the best study lamps.C．To introduce the method of choosing a proper lamp.D．To present the finding that light affects study.12．（10分）German cities are redrawing road markings to create new cycle paths for the duration of the Covid-19 lockdown, as cyclists demand more space to physically distance on their way to work.Local authorities in the Kreuzberg district of Berlin trialled （试行）a temporary widening of two cycle paths on 27 March, arguing it would help cyclists keep the required 1.5-metre distance apart while car traffic was down owing to Germany's coronavirus （冠状病毒）restrictions.On Friday, the council declared the plan a success because it had improved cycling safety while not blocking traffic.The council said it had used removable tape and mobile signs to mark out the widened paths, which can be removed when the current restrictions on movement are lifted.Residents in 133 other German cities have formally submitted applications for similar pop-up bike paths to their local authorities on the back of a campaign by Environmental Action Germany （DUH），an environmental NGO．The campaign group cites new research linking air pollution to higher coronavirus death rates as an argument for redrawing road signs across the country. "The coronavirus is showing us that clean air is necessary," said DUH's chair, Jürgen Resch. "It is now especially important to temporarily make it more important for people to move safely on their bikes. This will help improve air quality, enable exercise in fresh air while keeping a safe distance and avoid unnecessary accidents."In Germany, bike repair shops are allowed to work because of the Covid-19 going on. Three federal states, Berlin, Saxony-Anhalt and Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, have allowed bike shops to stay open.（1）Why did German cities decide to widen temporary cycle paths？A．To avoid traffic jams.B．To go to work conveniently.C．To reduce air pollution.D．To keep proper distance between cyclists.（2）How did the road workers sign the widened paths？A．By using removable tape and signs.B．By painting oil lines.C．By hanging special boards.D．By pulling up attractive ropes.（3）What does the underlined word "pop-up" in paragraph 5 probably mean？A．Substituted.B．Limited.C．Expanded.D．Separated.（4）What can we infer from the last paragraph？A．Special measures is taken to raise the production of bicycles.B．All transportation means except bicycling are forbidden.C．The use of bicycles can stop the Covid-19 from going on.D．Bicycle riding is encouraged to lower the risk of gathering.13．（10分）A planet the size of Jupiter has been discovered and it is one of the hottest ones known to us. This has made scientists think about how planets are formed.Planets such as Earth have more oxygen than carbon, but what if the composition（组成）is just the opposite？This is a question opened up by a recent discovery of a diamond planet by US and UK scientists. The planet is 1200 light years away from Earth and was observed using NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope. Dr Marek Kukula explained that researchers initially used the Super WASP （Wide Angle Search for Planets）robotic observatories operating continuously, all year around. They detected the planet, then it was observed with the Spitzer Space Telescope, which detected the heat coming from the planet, and from that heat signature they can tell what this planet is made from.The planet is very different to Earth. "It's a giant planet," explains Dr Kukula, "a gas planet, a bit like Jupiter in our solar system. But the interesting thing that they've discovered is that it has a very different composition to the planets in our solar system. This planet has more carbon than oxygen." This suggests that there is more than one way to make a solar system and the range of planets in the universe could be much wider than previously thought.Dr Kukula says that if there are smaller planets in the same solar system with a similar composition, rich in carbon, their rocks could be rich in minerals such as carbon and diamonds,unlike Earth which has silica（硅石），the sand that rocks on Earth are made from. "This is where this diamond planet idea comes from；they haven't actually detected a diamond planet yet," explains Dr Kukula. It's hypothetical（假设的），"but you can imagine strange landscapes with black graphite rocks lying around and the surface could be covered with sticky liquids instead of water"．（1）What planet has been discovered recently？A．A planet with more oxygen.B．A planet with more carbon.C．A planet hotter than others.D．A planet bigger than Jupiter.（2）How do scientists decide a planet's composition？A．By its heat.B．By its size.C．By telescope.D．By distance.（3）What can we learn about the new planet from paragraph 3？A．It is in our solar system.B．It looks like Earth.C．It is completely different from Jupiter.D．It contains a lot of gas.（4）Why do scientists call the planet "a diamond planet"？A．It is rich in carbon.B．It is rich in silica.C．It is rich in water.D．It is rich in sticky liquids.14．（10分）Foldable phones are once again facing questions about their durability（耐久性）．The Galaxy Z Flip and the Motorola Razr are now both available to buy in the US - but early reports suggest the screens are easily damaged.One media published photos of two layers of the Razr's display separating, affecting the touch screen.The Galaxy Z flip, meanwhile, boasts （自夸）a "flexible glass" display - but tests appear to show it scratching （刮擦）as easily as plastic.In a statement, Samsung said the display had a protective layer, and had undergone extensive testing. "While the display does bend, it should be handled with care," it said.The Z Flip's "pretty thin glass" is one of Samsung's primary marketing messages for the new phone. But a durability test conducted by popular Zack Nelson, a regular buyer, suggested it was no more durable than a soft plastic screen - and could even be dented （划痕）by a fingernail.Nelson said Samsung's screen scratched exactly how a plastic screen would react. "I don't know what material this is, but Samsung definitelyshouldn't be calling it glass," he said. He found that the screen of the Motorola Razr scratched as easily but it is not marketed as "glass"．The Motorola Razr was put on sale 13 days ago in the US，but Raymond Wong, an editor says the flexible screen on his handset has already broken. The upper layer of the Razr's screen separated from the bottom, creating "a giant horizontal air bubble" for no apparent reason. He wrote that the fault appeared after a 45-minute train ride during which the phone was in his pocket. The screen was completely warped from hinge-to-hinge with the top layer raised like a poorly applied screen protector. But Mr. Wong said that apart from the visual problem, the damage has affected the responsiveness of the touchscreen.（1）What attitude do the buyers have to the quality of Galaxy Z Flip and Razr？A．Suspicious.B．Objective.C．Optimistic.D．Unconcerned.（2）What is the outstanding feature of the Z Flip by Samsung？A．Low price.B．Portable style.C．Extremely thin screen.D．Protective function.（3）Why does Nelson complain about Samsung？A．He is angry at its post-sale service.B．He is strict in its screen materials.C．He is disappointed at its unfair competition.D．He is unsatisfied with its inexact statement.（4）What is the best title of the text？A．Cheat always exists in businessB．Foldable phones may not be all that greatC．Different brands have their special featuresD．Disadvantages of two kinds of phones第二节（共5 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分12.5 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．15．（12.5分）The outbreak has forced people to work from home and given many couples the chance to see each other at work. But, after all, living together and working together are not the same.（1）1．Put the problem on the tableKnowing what your partner does is one thing, but seeing them in action is another. "We are forced into the intimacy （亲密），not just with spouses（配偶），but also with kids or whoever else is in the home," said Karen Bridbord, a psychologist in New York City.（2）Talk about any insecuritiesyou may have whether it's participating in a video meeting or being eavesdropped on and what you need in terms of a work environment. Then create a schedule and set boundaries when it comes to separating work life and personal life.2．（3）You might be learning that your spouse is a fan of all the office clichés or holds too many meetings - but it's best to keep that to yourself. Even if you think your intentions are good, don't offer any unsolicited （主动提供的）feedback when it comes to your partner's work style. And don't mistake complaining as an opportunity to criticize. "Even if a partner is complaining about work, you shouldn't see that as an invitation or opportunity to provide critical feedback," said Anthony Chambers, a chief academic officer."（4）"3．Don't complain a lotThese working conditions aren't ideal for many people right now - especially if you are juggling kids and other care giving responsibilities.（5）However, try not to keep score of who is doing what around the house, or whose work is more pressing.A．Provide an inside lookB．Allow them to complain and you just listen.C．Avoid treating each other like colleaguesD．This can leave you feeling overburdened and exhausted.E．The first step in making this situation work is to talk about it. F．How to do with this "new colleague" to maintain a harmonious relationship？G．In this way, you're more likely to asympathy from the partner which will help negotiate boundaries.第三部分语言运用（共三节，满分30 分）第一节（共15 小题；每小题1 分，满分15 分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C 和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项．16．（15分）Last week I went shopping in the supermarket.

We don't knowwhy she gave the strange name. We soon learned it was just what this new dog would need.My parents' bad tempered dog would jump out of bed and go-go-go all day long. So when they brought home a Christmas tree, they expected everything would be out of order. However, to their astonishment, Mercy didn't seem to take any care. She paid zero attention to the tree which suddenly grew in her living room. Nor did she react to the fancy presents under it, including a wrapped box of Milk-Bones.Dad and Polly were quite careful；they'd never had a dog that didn't force them to move everything to higher ground as if they were expecting a flood. But Mercy seemed to take no notice. He didn't take any glance at it at all.A few days before Christmas, Polly awoke early in the morning as usual. She passed the dusty living room and then stopped in surprise. Glancing back into the room, she saw that every last present was gone. Only the tree was still there.Had they been robbed？Why hadn't Mercy barked？Where was she？Had the robbers taken her away？Polly noticed a scrap of ribbon （丝带）on the floor, then a bit of torn wrapping paper a few feet away, some lights beyond that. The clues all made a mark leading toward the back door.Polly put on the switch, bathing the backyard in light. The perpetrator's （肇事者）head lifted and froze. Alarm and guilt made her eyes wide. Oh, yes, it was Mercy.She lay under her favorite tree in a soft nest of shredde （碎片）wrapping paper, chewed-up boxes, and curling （缠绕）bits of ribbon. Presents, unpacked from their packages, were spread over everywhere. Beautifully wrapped boxes had gaping holes. Pieces of paper were mixed with the last remaining evidence of gifts. All the gift tags （标签）that could have been used as thank-you cards were destroyed.Clearly Mercy's self-control had failed._______As for Thank-you cards, Mercy provided the answer.__________。

LOUIS, MO JULY 4, 20165I eat a guacamole sandwich everyday on pumpernickel bread and it’s not only delicious but Ifeel it’s healthy and I have gained NO weight.1. What is the passage intended for?A. describing a product in detailB. sharing comments about a bookC. advertising a book for saleD. giving advice on food and recipes2. What advice can you find in Recipes & Remedies?A. how to go on a diet to keep healthyB. how to keep fit through good dietC. how to use food to cure cancerD. how to take drugs to relieve pains3. Where does the passage come from?A. A webpageB. A guideC. A reviewD. A newspaperBA couple of weeks ago, my grandfather was explaining his favorite expression, “Nothing is ever easy.” The following day, as I tried to complete my day’s work, I happened to notice a bumblebee (大黄蜂) on the skylight (天窗). The skylight was particularly high up, but I thought removing the bee would take no more than five minutes. An hour later, the bee still remained. All that had changed was that the living room was a mess and that I was dizzy from looking up into the sunlight. I did not expect to waste an hour on an insect so tiny, but by doing so, I understood what my grandfather meant.It is not only time that we tend to underestimate –we don’t account for unexpected costs. We often imagine what can work in our favor, but we seldom think of all the negative things that could affect us. However, it is important to remember that your day or week or year might not go as planned, and that is completely normal. It is perfectly acceptable to feel challenged – even at a task you thought was simple – because that is part of life.If you can accept that nothing will ever be easy, then life might seem slightly more manageable. In middle school, I thought high school might be easier because I could choose the classes I wanted to take. In high school, I thought college might be easier because I could have a schedule (计划) best suited for myself. Yet each time, I was both wrong and disappointed. After accepting that school wouldn’t (and shouldn’t) be easy, I found mysel f with a more positive attitude and improved results.Of course, there should be preparations made to account for expenses or time. Doing so can only help you accomplish your goals in a better way. However, there is no need to beat ourselves up when something stands in our path. Maybe we cannot see a bee coming our way, but we can always give ourselves the extra time to catch it.4. Why did the author mention his experience of removing a bee?A. To share something unforgettable with us.B. To lead us to what the author learned from it.C. To show the unexpected costs it caused.D. To tell us how easy it is to waste our time.5. Why do things often turn out to be different from what we expect?A. We often don’t take time seriously.B. We tend not to have enough money.C. Unexpected things can happen.D. It is easy to feel challenged.6. According to the text, what does the underlined phrase “beat ourselves up” mean?A. to hit or kick ourselves hard, many timesB. to blame ourselves too muchC. to encourage ourselves to work hardD. to give up ourselves7. What is the author’s purpose of writing this article?A. To encourage people to make greater efforts.B. To explain how to make preparations.C. To tell us what to do when something gets in our way.D. To persuade us not to expect things to be easy.CDue to the outbreak of the novel coronavirus pneumonia (NCP), people all over the world are wearing masks to reduce the risk of infection. It’s a very simple but incredibly effective method to protect oneself from a variety of harmful things. In fact, masks have been helping mankind for centuries. Let’s take a look at some mask-related history.1st centuryIn that era, many people in Roman Empire worked underground in mines to support their families. But most of them suffered from and even eventually died of respiratory (呼吸的) illnesses. To address this problem, Pliny the Elder (23-79 AD), a Roman philosopher and naturalist, recommended the use of animal bladder (膀胱) skins to stop dust from being breathed in. Although primitive, his idea was considered the very first recorded mask invention.16th centuryEarly inventions did not stop with Pliny. Many centuries later, Italian artist and inventor Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519), proposed using a woven cloth dipped in water over the face to protect against the poisonous chemicals.19th centuryThe design of the mask took a big step forward in the 19th century. In 1848, American Lewis Hassley became the first person to patent (注册专利) a protective mask for miners, which was a milestone in face mask history. Masks at this stage were similar to gas masks. Later, in 1897, Polish-Austrian doctor Johann von Mikulicz-Radecki designed a simple mask composed of one layer of gauze (纱布), recommending medical workers to wear it to prevent infection. That was the first recorded use of a surgical mask.20th centuryIn 1910, an epidemic broke out in Northeast China. Chinese doctor Wu Liande designed a cheap face mask called “Wu’s mask”. Made of two layers of surgical g auze, it could be wrapped around the back of the head and tied in a knot. This mask was praised by experts around the world, as it was simple to manufacture (制作) and had a low production cost. Modern explorationWith several outbreaks of infectious diseases and the flu, and the rise of pollution caused by industrial waste, the materials in masks have continued to evolve to better protect its wearer. For example, in 2012 when China suffered from smog, mask models such as N95 and KN90, which can filter out this fine particulate (微粒) matter, became highly popular. In the future, masks will continue to improve, hopefully so will the habits of humans.8. According to the text, why were masks invented?A. To reduce the risk of infection.B. To protect miners from dust.C. To indicate patients with respiratory illnesses.D. To protect workers from harmful chemicals.9. What was considered a milestone in face mask history?A. Using a woven cloth instead of animal skins.B. Getting a patent on protective masks for miners.C. The invention of surgical masks in 1897.D. Using more than one layer of surgical gauze.10. “Wu’s mask” grew popular around the world because _____.A. it could be used multiple timesB. it was simple for people to wearC. it was cheap and easy to manufactureD. it could better protect people from smog11. What is the text mainly about?A. The evolution of masks.B. The benefits of using masks.C. A comparison of different masks.D. The roles masks played at different times.DDuring the outbreak of novel coronavirus, cities are locked down and borders are closed. Science, on the contrary, is becoming more open. And this “open science” is already making a difference.Soon after the epidemic started in China, a research team from Fudan University in Shanghai successfully sequenced (测定序列) the DNA of the virus. But they didn’t keep the information to themselves. Instead, they placed the sequences on GenBank, an open-access data platform, so researchers around the world could download them for free and start studying the virus.Due to this openness, pharmaceutical companies across the globe are now able to work at the same time to develop a vaccine (疫苗). “There may be room for multiple different vaccines for different purposes and different a ge groups,” Amesh Adalja, a senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins University Center for Health Security in the US, told Al Jazeera. “The bigger menu we have of vaccines, the more resilient (有适应力的) we’ll be against coronavirus outbreaks in the future.”Major drug companies around the world are also sharing their study results. Remdesivir, a drug originally developed by US company Gilead Sciences to treat Ebola, is found to be promising in fighting against the novel coronavirus. Currently, two trials of the drug are already underway in China, and the results might be available as soon as April, according to The Verge.This openness in science is going to be even more important in the future. “With climate change, increasing globalization, and population shifts, epidemics will not go away, and might even become more frequent,” Dan Barouch, a Harvard Medical School professor, told Harvard Magazine.He said, “No one group can do everything. It has to be a coordinated approach. But I do think that the world has a greater sense of readiness this time to develop knowledge, drugs,and therapeutics (疗法) very rapidly.”Every epidemic is indeed a crisis, but it can also be a learning opportunity. One redeeming (补偿的) factor of the COVID-19 outbreak is that it is helping science adapt for the better.12. What does the article mainly talk about?A. Coordinated efforts to fight the epidemic.B. Something positive we’ve learned from the epidemic.C. The significance of openness and sharing of scientific knowledge.D. What needs to be done to prevent future epidemics.13. What is the positive effect of the research team from Fudan University placing the genetic sequence of the virus onto GenBank?A. They alerted the world to the danger of the virus.B. They helped remo ve people’s fear of the virus.C. They showed the world how to produce a vaccine.D. They invited collective efforts worldwide to develop a vaccine.13.What is the author’s purpose of mentioning Remdesivir in the text?A. To introduce a possible cure for the epidemic.B. To compare the treatment of Ebola and the novel coronavirus.C. To prove that many drug companies readily share their discoveries.D. To show that the novel coronavirus will soon be contained.14.Which of the following would Dan Barouch probably disagree with?A. Epidemics will be less frequent thanks to scientific development.B. The world is becoming better prepared to deal with epidemics.C. No single group can fight against the epidemics independently.D. The increase in globalization may worsen future epidemics.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。

But his study came to a stop at 23 after he hurt his hand in an unpleasant event. He developed schizophrenia(精神分裂症) later and spent many years without a home.Carter liked to spend time around UT, because he dreamt of being able to continue his study in the university and becoming a writer. After running into Carter many times, UT student Ryan Chandler decided to interview him for a project for the Daily Texan, the student newspaper of UT.“I interviewed him on Austin’s homeless problems. After I heard his story, we kept in touch and really became friends. I learned he wanted to get back to UT, so I decided to help him,” said Chandler. “He had got 87 hours, very close to a degree. Now, with changing degree requirements, he only has 64 hours to go.”With the help of Chandler, who worked with the university office, Carter was assigned an adviser by UT’s College of Fine Arts. “It' s the greatest gift I’ve ever received,” Carter said. “He did what had to be done to get me back to school, and I couldn't have done it without him”After seeing a magazine article about Carter, a UT schoolmate decided to pay his tuition fees (学费)without telling Chandler his name.Doug Dempster, dean of the College of Fine Arts, said in a statement, “David Carter's decision to complete his degree is a testament (证明) to finishing well what was started, and stopped, even many years earlier. We welcome him back as we do many students each year whose education could not be completed easily. We’ re going to help him through his remaining course work.”4. Why did Carter stop studying in the university?A. He hurt an artist.B. He couldn’t aff ord his study.C. He got a strange disease.D. He had a hand injury.5.

What can we learn from Dempster’s words in the statement?A. He encourages Carter to study hard.B. He supports students who never give up.C. He calls on other students to help Carter.D. He suggests other students learn from Carter.CWhen faced with the decision to get out of bed or have a few more minutes of sleep, which do you choose? Believe it or not, that decision could make a world of difference in the rest of your day.About 85 percent of Americans use an alarm clock to wake up in the mornings, according to sleep researcher Till Roennenber. And while there are no official numbers on snoozing (打盹), a quick survey of social media makes it clear that hitting the snooze button is a popular pastime.As to how the snooze button will affect your day, scientists have mixed opinions. Some scientists think people who hit the snooze button in the mornings are actually clever, creative and happy while some said that hitting the snooze button will ruin your life, or at the very least your day. "I feel that hitting the snooze button has got to be one of the worst things that ever happened to human sleep,” re searcher Jonathan Horowitz said. "The chances of you ‘snoozing’ and actually experiencing a meaningful rest are close to zero.”According to some sleep experts, when hitting the snooze button，you are in fact confusing your body and mind, and throwing yourself into a deep state of being sleepy. The body needs some time to wake up, so, when returning to what will be a light sleep for a brief period of time, you are putting your body back into a sleep mode before waking it again. At that point your body won’t know what it wants, resulting in a sort of half awaken state.If you really want to take advantage of an alarm clock, the key is to form a healthy sleep cycle. Focus your efforts on getting enough sleep each night and waking up at the same time each day so that when your alarm goes off you feel rested.8. What can we infer about hitting the snooze button from Paragraph 2?A. People do it just for fun.B. It is a common practice.C. People take it seriously.D. It is a bit childish.9. What do some sleep experts think of hitting the snooze button?A. It is meaningful in the long term.B. It makes people become lazy.C. It brings us a sense of satisfaction.D. It affects our body and mind.10. What’s the author’s suggestion on getting the best out of alarms?A. Forming a good sleep habit.B. Trying to relax ourselves.C. Making use of willpower.D. Using an extra alarm.11. What is the best title for the text?A. Ways to keep refreshed in the morning.B. The snooze button and people's character.C. Should you rely on the snooze button?D. How to avoid the light sleep mode?DA storm hit Houston, Texas, on Tuesday. It brought heavy rains and rising flood-waters. By Tuesday night, some parts of the city had received 10 inches of rain. Police and firefighters helped people move to safe places. They also saved people from cars and buses that were stuck on roads.Certain areas around Houston were hit really hard. In just four hours, more than seven inches of rain fell in Sugar Land in the southwest of Houston. Cars could not pass through any of the areas main roadways. On Twitter, Sugar Land city officials asked people to get to high ground.Tuesday’s rain hit parts of Texas that Hurricane Harvey had already damaged almost two years ago. Hurricane Harvey in August, 2017 was the second most costly hurricane in US history. It caused $125 billion worth of damage in Texas. In the Houston area, 36 people died and about 150, 000 homes were flooded.A spokesman for the Harris County Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Management spoke with the Houston Chronicle. The spokesman said that this week’s rain is “not in any way a Harv ey-level event.”But the worst may not be over yet. People will have a break from the heavy rain on Wednesday. According to the National Weather Service, the Texas Gulf Coast will continue to experience heavy rain later in the week. "Today should be ou r quietest over the next few days for rainfall,” said Don Oettinger, a National Weather Service meteorologist (气象学家).Houston Fire Chief Samuel Peia warned, “As there is too much water on the ground, these are perfect conditions for flash floods, so we hope people are ca reful of what they’re doing and encourage them to stay home. There’s no sense in putting yourself, firefighters or anybody in danger needlessly.”12. What are Paragraphs 1 and 2 mainly about?A. Flood damage in Houston.B. Flood prevention in Houston.C. Heavy floods hitting Houston.D. People fighting floods in Houston.13. What do we know about Hurricane Harvey?A. It caused no deaths or injuries.B. It did a lot of damage to Texas.C. It was less serious than this week’s rain.D. It was the biggest hurricane on record.14. What can we learn from the weather report of the National Weather Service?A. Fine days are coming.B. It will rain a little non-stop.C. A hurricane is unavoidable.D. Floods will continue.15.What did Samuel suggest local people do?A. Stay indoors.B. Join firefighters.C. Give up needless things.D. Comfort those who lost homes.第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5 分）根据下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

The Irish traditionally wear something green on this day, as the color is 41 Ireland. Another St Patrick’s Day tradition is for the non-Irish to 42 about the Irish.Usually these jokes will be about Irish stupidity, their famous 43 alcohol, or their reputation for telling tall tales.These characteristics are all based on the most mon Irish stereotypes (成见) that the Irish are hot-tempered drinkers who love to fight and will do anything to avoid a day’s work.The real joke, however, is that these negative Irish stereotypes still exist. These stereotypes may have gone back to the 19th century when they started, but they’re far from 44 today -– with the exception, perhaps of the drinking.Today, the Irish are admired for their storytelling ability, musical talent and strong education. It’s no accident that several of the greatest writers of the 20th century were Irish. Or that many of the most famous music acts of all time, such as singer Enya and rock band U2, were Irish born and bred.So where did the 45 Irish stereotypes e from? They can be traced back to the 19th century, which was a very bad time to be Irish.At that time, Ireland was poverty-stricken and starving. Many Irish moved to the US to escape famine, but there they had to 46 occasionally with their fists for jobs and housing with other immigrant groups. It was on the US’ streets that the Irish 47 for street fighting.However, one bit of the Irish stereotype is still true, their love of drink. Drinking in Ireland is a predilection (偏好), but it’s not 48 something to criticize. It was the Irish 49 who created one of the world’s best-loved beers – Guinness.III.

Last week, a guy whom I hadn’t seen since my bachelor (单身汉) party five years ago sent me a friend request．I accepted a nd waited for “Easy E” to send me a greeting of some kind. He had sought me out, after all．I learned from his profile that he was in a relationship and had a son．However, I’m pretty sure we won’t ever write wall-to-wall, let alone e-mail each other．But he’ll remain a friend of’ online until one of us makes a point of’ removing the other from his official list．My pool of friends consists of family members, college buddies, co-workers from past and present, and friends of’ friends. There are 35 in all．If I spent some time uploading old e-mail addresses, I’m confident that I could increase my friend count actually．A person could make a mission out of’reconnecting with childhood friends, former classmates, distant cousins, and those one would like to get to know better．And some people can even handle hundreds of no-screen relationships, keeping up with the daily happenings of their small army of’ panions．After all, there are worse fates than having too many friends．Thanks to e-mail, the inability to schedule face-to-face meetings no longer means a friendship must e to a close．But even with e-mail, people will lose touch if one or both parties stop writing back．That’s normal．People move from school to school, job to job, city to city．You never have to feel guilty for breaking away．Every day, the masterminds of’ Web 2.0 find new ways of’ making human munication easier. However, convenience can be a crutch(拐杖)．Some things shouldn’t be simplified．Talking about friendship, there can be no shortcuts．65．According to Paragraph l, the website is famous because ___________ ．A．it has an interesting name of “ Facebook”B．it helps people get in touch with old friendsC．it can send people a greeting of’ some kindD．it reminds people of ‘events in the past66．Which of the following statements is NOT true?A．There are 35 people in the author’s list of’ friends right now．B．The author municates with all the 35 friends by e-mails．C．The list of 35 friends doesn’t include the old e-mail addresses．D．It is not difficult for the author to increase his friend count．67．What does the writer mean by saying “However, convenience can be a crutch(拐杖)”?A．The masterminds of Web 2.0 also sell crutch online．B．Taking a crutch is a new way of’ making friends online．C．Convenience is dangerous for human munication．D．Convenience is not really good for human munication．68．What does the author think of’ the conve nience of’ municating online?A．The technology could not keep true friendship forever．B．The social website of Facebook means nothing at all．C．There will be no ways of making real friends online．D．People will not lose friends with the help of the Facebook．B (每题2分)My eighth grade consisted of 28 classmates．We knew each other so well that most of us could distinguish each other’s handwriting at a glance．Although we grew up together, we still had class outcasts(被抛弃者)．From second grade on, a small group started harassing(骚扰)two or three of the others．I was on e of those two or three, though I didn’t know why．In most cases when children get picked on, they aren’t good at sports or they read too much or they wear the wrong clothes or they are of a different race．But in my class, we all read too much and didn’t know how to play sports．We had also been brought up to carefully respect each other’s race．This is what was so strange about my situation．Usually, people are made outcasts because they are in some way different from the larger group．But in my class, large differences did not exist．It was as if the outcasts were invented by the group out of a need for them．The harassment came in the form of laughter when I talked, and rolled eyes when I turned around．If I was out on the playground and approached a group of people, they often fell silent. Sometimes, someone would not see me ing and I would catch the tail end of a joke at my expense．There was another girl in our class who was perhaps even more rejected than I．She provided the group with a lot of material for jokes. One day one popular girl came up to me to show me something she said I wouldn’t want to miss．We walked to a corner of the playground．Three or four girls there were reading aloud from a small book, which I was told was the girl’s diary．I sat down and, laughing till my sides hurt, heard my voice finally mixed with the others．Often being accepted by others is more satisfying than being accepted by oneself, eventhough the satisfaction does not last．Looking back, I wonder how I could have participated in making fun of this girl when I knew perfectly well how it felt．If I were in that situation today I would react differently, but I can’t honestly be sure．69．The author was made an outcast because _________．A．she couldn’t play sports as well as othersB．her family belonged to a minority groupC．her classmates found her clothes funnyD．her classmates required an outcast70．How was the author treated as an outcast?A．She was often the target of teasing．B．No one responded to her talking．C．She was refused to approach others．D．Her diary was often made public．71．What did the author do to the girl mentioned in Paragraph 3?A．She showed great sympathy with the girl．B．She joined others in making fun of the girl．C．She stopped the others from hurting the girl．D．She found more materials about the girl for jokes．72．What does the passage intend to tell us?A．Someone is likely to bee an outcast．B．We shouldn’t hit a person when he is down．C．One should pay somebody back in his own way．D．Everyone has a desire to be accepted by others．C (每题2分)Experts in the food industry are thinking a lot about trash(垃圾) these days. Restaurants, colleges, hospitals and other institutions are making up for the rising costs of waste in new ways. Some are tracking their trash with software systems making food in smaller amount or trying to cut down on trash-hauling(托运)costs. Roughly 30% percent of food in the United States goes to waste, costing some $48 billion annually according to a Stockholm International Water Institute study. A xx University of Arizona study estimated that 40 to 50 percent of food in the United States is wasted. Freshman students at Virginia Tech were surprised this year when they entered two of the campus’s biggest dining halls to find there were no cafeteria trays. Getting rid of trays has cut food waste by 38% percent at the cafeterias, said Denny Cochrane, manager of Virginia Tech’s sustainability program. Before the program began, students often grabbled whatever looked good at the canteen, only to find at the table that their eyes were bigger than their stomachs, he said.That same phenomenon often happens at Oregon’s Portland International Airport. Busy travelers often throw half-eaten meals into trash cans, adding dozens of tons of waste that the airport must pay the city to haul away. Now the airport is carrying out a program to install food-only trash carts. The food waste is collected in biodegradabe(可生物分解的) bags and given to the city to use as post(堆肥). Besides being environmentally friendly, the changes may save the airport money. It costs about $82 to have one ton of trash hauled from the airport to the city landfill(垃圾掩埋场). But food waste costs about $48 a ton to haul.Cutting back on the waste can require spending money on software and training. LeanPath,based in Portland, Ore, sells a software system to track food being thrown out. Steve Peterson, head chef at the MGM Grand hotel in Las Vegas, said he was surprised when he installed the LeanPath system and saw the value of food that was going out the back door. To cut costs, Peterson decided to reduce serving sizes. He said customers weren’t bothered by the switch, which has helped him lower food waste by between 15 to 20 percent over 18 month.73. The main reason for people paying attention to food waste is ______________.A. to lower the cost of food wasteB. to save more food for the world.C. to keep the dining room cleanD. to reduce the effort of cooking74. What kind of measure has been taken to cut food waste?A. Making cafeteria at colleges and universities trayless.B. Using software system to trace the location of the trash.C. Trying to remove the food waste little by little.D. Charging higher prices for smaller amount of food.75. What’s the benefit of installing food-only trash cans at the airport?A. Keeping the airport clean and tidy.B. Fastering the process of making trash into post.C. Reducing the cost of removing the trash.D. Reminding the passengers to produce less trash.76. In which way can software help reduce the food waste?A. It can store varieties of measures for people to choose.B. It can help people to be informed of the food waste.C. It can calculate the total amount of the food offered.D. It can connect the food needed with the data of customers.77. What is the passage mainly about?A. Great amount of food is wasted at public places.B. Individuals don’t pay attention to food waste.C. It costs big money to handle food waste.D. Lots of new methods are taken to deal with food waste.Section C: Directions: Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or plete the statements in the fewest possible words.(6%)(请将78--80题答案填写在答题纸上) Forest schools are a type of outdoor education in which children (or adults) visit forests, learning personal, social and technical skills. It has been defined as “an inspirational process that offers children, young people and adults regular opportunities to achieve and develop confidence through hands-on learning in a woodland environment”.Forest schools use the woods and forests as a means to build independence and self-esteem in school-age children. Topics are broad including the natural environment, for example the role of trees in society, the plex ecosystem supported by a wilderness, and recognition of specific plants and animals. However, the personal skills are considered highly valuable, such as teamwork and problem solving. The woodland environment may be used to learn about more abstract concepts such as mathematics and munication. Forest schools are also called nature schools.Schedules within forest schools vary, but a typical approach is to take school children towoodland for once a week, with 6 week observation period at first. Often a baseline(基线)is produced for each child in terms of areas of their overall development, with particular emphasis on their social and emotional aspects of learning (SEAL). Once the baseline assessment has been produced, the Forest School teachers will then continue with the long term programme over the course of the academic year in order to support the child in their development and learning. The teachers will provide opportunities for each child to develop in areas that have been identified as requiring interventions(介入)or support of any kind. The time and frequency of visits influences the degree of oute most; more time spent in forest schools brings greater benefits. Visits should continue throughout the year, allowing children to experience all weathers and the changing seasons.Forest schools are often “led by the child’s interests” by parison to other outdoor education which “starts with a problem for the children to investigate”.(Note: Answer the questions or plete the statement in about ten words.)78．The goal of forest schools is defined as to __________________in a woodland environment. 79．What personal skills are considered highly valuable in Forest schools?__________________________________________________________________________ 80．What does the third paragraph mainly talk about?___________________________________________________________________________第II卷I.阅读下面短文，按照句子结构的语法和上下文连贯的要求，在空格处填入一个适当的词或使用括号中词语的正确形式填空,并将答案填写在答题纸标号相应位置上。

After midnight when everyone was asleep, she’d silently carried one package after another out of the living room so that she could enjoy in private. Anything eatable was gone, including cookies, chocolates, candy canes, and four pounds of Milk-Bones. She enjoyed her midnight snack in her comfortable nest. My parents were so grateful instead of being angry, they laughed off the ruined presents. Only one problem remained. With all the gift tags destroyed, how could they send out thank-you cards?As for Thank-you cards, Mercy provided the answer. A few days later, Polly returned to hereasy chair to find Mercy guiltily cleaning a plate with her tongue where a cookie had just been. Polly took a picture of the shamefaced dog and used it to make thank-you notes. The title read, “Thank you for the mercy.” Inside, the whole story was explained.

Promotion opportunities．4.How does a candidate apply for the position？______A. By letter．B. By telephone．C. On the website．D. Through an agency．BAs snow and freezing temperatures hit Britain in January，we decided to hang a couple of warm coats on a clothes rail outside a church in London．We placed a sign alongside the rail which read："Are you cold？Take one．Like to help？Leave one．" What happened next was remarkable．By the aftemoon the clothes rail was almost full．People near Exmouth Market had donated jackets and coats as well as gloves，hats and blankets and passing homeless people were helping themselves to whatever they needed．As well as the clothes rail，people donated "pledge cards" which offered homeless people free food，drinks and other services．Jeremy Brill，owner of Brill Cafe，has found that the pledge cards are popular with customers．"If a customer gives us ～5，we put it on a pledge card and leave it by the rail where a homeless person can use it to buy a hot drink or a sandwich．" Ellie Pamphilon，who runs a barbershop，has also been enthusiastic about the project．There are also ambitious plans to digitalize the pledge card scheme so that people will be able to pledge meals to homeless people from the comfort of their living rooms．One month on，and our rail in Exmouth Market is not only still going strong but，thanks to media coverage and a growing social media presence，has spawned similar activities around Britain and beyond．Like any social action project，we wanted our rail to bring about change，to benefit those individuals less fortunate in our community．And that benefit is twofold．Being a volunteer on a social action project can improve your confidence and levels of wellbeing．So，get involved by asking what you can do for your community，not only what your community can do for you．5.What do we know about " pledge cards"？______A.

To entertain readers with a story．D. To inspire readers to help the community．CMost of the world's progress is made by the few pioneers who break barriers，reach new distances，and find a new path．They are the few brave enough to believe in the seemingly impossible and dedicate themselves to make it possible．Once they do this，they open the gates for others to follow．A powerful demonstration of this is Roger Bannister，who in 1954，broke the four-minute mile barrier with a record of 3 minutes，59.4 seconds．Before Bannister succeeded，the prospect was considered not only dangerous but impossible．But Bannister did not limit himself by this way of thinking；he developed within himself a certainty that it was achievable；even though there was no evidence to suggest it．In fact，there was a lot of evidence to suggest it wasn't achievable．But his belief to the contrary allowed him to train for years to his end goal．On 6 May，1954，Bannister's remarkable achievement created a new wisdom．Just 24 days later，the barrier was broken again and in the last 50 years，more than 1，000 other runners have achieved the feat．It was not that these runners had enhanced physical qualities from the run ners who had tried and failed before them，but that they had enhanced psychological qualities．They had proof of the possible．Sometimes we do need to see it to believe it．But if we are limited to stories of problems and failures，it can be difficult to see beyond them．Those people who achieve extraordinary things do not accept the current standards；they break the barriers of' what is'and push beyond them to 'what could be：It is through learning from those who force progress into existence that we too can realize our own potentials - to be a powerful force for good．9.What does the underlined word "this" refer to in paragraph 2？______A. Finding a new path．B. Being a pioneer．C. The world's progress．D. The 4-minute mile barrier．10.What do we know about Roger Bannister？______A. He wanted others to follow him．B. He made a breakthrough in running．C. He received support from his family．D. He collected evidence to support himself．11.Why are "other runners"mentioned in paragraph 3？______A. To show the bravery of other runners．B. To confirm the significance of pioneers．C. To illustrate the power of following others．D. To state the importance of physical qualities．12.What does the author advise the readers to do in the last paragraph？______A. Ignore the barriers．B. Learn from failures．C. Fulfill the potentials．D. Accept the existing standards．DThe skin on your hands and feet is noticeably different from that on most other areas of your body．Unlike those other areas，the 8kin on your palms and soles doesn't have hair．And when you bathe irt water，most of your skin looks normal while your hands and feet wind up looking like wrinkled （起皱的）prunes．Another way in which your hands and feet are different is that both the palms and soles have unique patterns of ridges，also called fingerprints and footprints．The middle layer of skin connects to the epidermai （表皮的）layer through many papillae，which are tiny fingerlike Projections（突起）of connective tissue．Fingerprints and footprints have purposes other than helping experts to solve crimes；they help you to grab on to objects，and they help to keep your skin from being torn．In addition to lacking hair and having ridges，the skin on your hands and feet is also thicker．With all the tasks these body parts have to perform，such as walking or picking things up，they tend to get a lot of use．As a result，the thicker，hairless skin allows them to bear more friction （摩擦）without getting damaged．Part of that extra thickness is caused by a kind of protein，which gets nutrients in deeper layers of the skin but forms a surface layer of dead cells on the epidermis．This extra thickness may also explain why your hands and feet become wrinkled when you bathe in the water．The dead protein cells absorb the water so that the thin surface layer of skin expands and then wrinkles．13.What is the best title of the text？______A. Skin layers tell your body code !B. Why skin differs across your body？C. Why skin on hands and feet different？D. Skin on hands and feet says your health !14.Why can the fingerprints and footprints help solve crimes？______A. They are not easy to tear．B. They have unique pattems．C. They help grab on to objects．D. They are fingerlike by nature．15.What might contribute to the extra thickness of the skin？______A. Tiny ridges．B. More nutrients．C. Frequent use．D. Connective tissue．16.What makes your hands and feet wrinkled in the water？______A. The shortage of protein cells．B. The lack of hair on the surface．C. The damage of the deeper layer of skin．D. The expanding of the surface layer of skin．二、阅读七选五（本大题共6小题，共11.0分）The next time you're online，think about what you share with others．Do you forward pictures or videos of your friends from your phone？Do you have a profile on a social network ，or a blog？(1) - about yourself，your family，and your friends - when you're online．Before you do，keep in mind：Your online actions can have real-world consequences．The pictures you post and the words you write can affect the people in your life．Think before you post and share．What you post could have a bigger "audience" than you think．(2) ，it's impossible to completely control who will see your social networking profile，pictures，videos，or texts．Before you click "send，" think about how you will feel if your family，teachers，coaches，or neighbors find it．Once you post information online，you can't take it back．You may think that you've deleteda comment or a picture from a site - or that you will delete it later．(3) ．(4) ．Online photo albums are great for storing and sharing pictures．It's so easy to snap a shot and upload it instantly．(5) ，stop and think about your own privacy - and other people's ．It can be embarrassing，unfair，and even unsafe to send or post photos and videos without getting permission from the people in them．A．Even if you use privacy settingsB．If you say yes，you are online-action fansC．Before you share photos and videos onlineD．You should never tell others of your privacy settingsE．You have tons of opportunities to share all kinds of informationF．But it may still be online or saved on someone else's computerG．et someone s okay before you share photos or videos they're in17.
