21．（6分）Two new studies suggest that modem running shoes could increase the risk of injuries to runners.
One study involved sixty-eight healthy young women and men who ran at least twenty-four kilometers a week. The runners were observed on a treadmill machine (跑步机). Sometimes they wore running shoes. Other times they ran barefoot.
Researchers from the JKM Technologies Company in Virginia, the University of Virginia and the University of Colorado did the study.
They found that running shoes create more stress that could damage knees, hips and ankle joints than running barefoot. They observed that the effect was even greater than the effect reported earlier for walking in high heels.
The study appeared in the official scientific journal of the American Academy of Physical Medicine.
The other study appeared in the journal Nature. It compared runners in the United States and Kenya. The researchers were from Harvard University in Massachusetts, Moi University in Kenya and the University of Glasgow in Scotland.
They divided the runners into three groups. One group had always run shoeless. Another group had always run with shoes. And the third group had changed to shoeless running.
Runners who wear shoes usually come down heel first. That puts great force on the back of the foot. But the study found that barefoot runners generally land on the front or middle of their foot. That way they ease into their landing and avoid striking their heel.
Harvard’s Daniel Lieberman led the study. He sa ys the way most running shoes are designed may explain why those who wear them land on their heels. The heel of the shoe is bigger and heavier than other parts of the shoe, so it would seem more likely to come down first. Also, the heel generally has thick material under it to soften landings.
But the researchers do not suggest that runners immediately start running barefoot. They say it takes some training. And there can be risks, like running when your feet are too cold to feel if you get injured.
The study was partly supported by Vibram, which makes a kind of footwear that it says is like running barefoot. The findings have gotten a lot of attention. But the researchers say there are many problems in the way the press has reported in their paper. So they have tried to explain their findings on a Harvard Website.
1、What can we learn from the passage?
A．The way that we run by landing on the front or middle of our foot could avoid damaging our heel.
B．We should start running barefoot in no time.
C．Running in modem running shoes could have more serious effects than running in high heels.
D．We won’t be injured if we run barefoot.
2、How many organizations are involved in the two studies?
A．Three. B．Four.
C．Five. D．Six.
3、How did the researchers do the two studies?
A．By practising. B．By comparing.
C．By questioning. D．By reasoning.
4、What is the main idea of the passage?
A．Walking in high heels could have fewer serious effects than running barefoot.
B．Two new discoveries encourage people to run in high heels.
C．Running in shoes is partly good to runners.
D．Two new studies prove running without shoes is beneficial to runners in most cases.
22．（8分）The Super Bowl is the annual championship game of the National Football League （NFL）．The game is the culmination（高潮）to a season that begins in the late summer of the previous calendar year．Normally，Roman numerals are used to identify each game，rather than the year in which it is held．For example，Super Bowl I was played on January 15，1967，following the 1966 regular season．The single exception to this rule is Super Bowl 50，which was played on February 7，2016，following the 2015 regular season．The next game，Super Bowl LII，scheduled for February 4，2018，will follow the 2017 regular season．
The game was created as part of a merger（合并）agreement between the NFL and its then rival league，the American Football League （AFL）．Currently，the Pittsburgh Steelers have the most Super Bowl victories，with six．The New England Patriots have the most Super Bowl appearances，with nine．
The day （usually the first Sunday in February）on which the Super Bowl is played，now considered as an unofficial American national holiday，is called "Super Bowl Sunday"．It is the second-largest day for U．S．food consumption，after Thanksgiving Day．In addition，the seven most-watched broadcasts in U．S．television history are Super Bowls．In 2015，Super Bowl XLIX attracted an audience of 114.4million．
Because of the high viewership，commercial airtime during the Super Bowl broadcast is the most expensive of the year，leading to companies regularly developing their most expensive advertisements for this broadcast．As a result，watching and discussing the broadcast's commercials has become a significant aspect of the event．In addition，popular singers and musicians including Michael Jackson，Madonna，Prince，Beyonce，Paul McCartney，The Rolling Stones，The Who，Whitney Houston，and Lady Gaga have performed during the event's pregame and
halftime ceremonies．
1、According to the text，in the Super Bowl ______ ．
A．the New England Patriots have won nine times
B．the Pittsburgh Steelers have won six titles
C．Arabic numerals are used to refer to each game
D．winners of the last season play against each other
2、On Super Bowl Sunday，American people usually ______ ．
A．buy expensive Super Bowl tickets
B．consume the most food of the year
C．avoid the Super Bowl commercials
D．enjoy performances by famous artists
3、In 2015，the ______ Super Bowl was held．
A．46th B．49th
C．51st D．55th
4、We can know from the text that the Super Bowl ______ ．
A．is a public holiday in the United States
B．is the annual championship game of AFL
C．launches a new season of the National Football League every year
D．has frequently been the most watched American television broadcast of the year
23．（8分）For years going home for the holidays has been bittersweet. I appreciate the opportunity to spend quality time with my mom but it is painful for me to see her house littered with stuff (物品). Clothes bought but never worn, and new i tems in their original packaging carelessly purchased and never used. It’s evident that seeing the stuff on a daily basis reminds my mom of a time when shopping was her way of spending money.
I didn’t fully understand the extent to which my mom was sufferi ng until this week, when I saw piles of clothes on her bed, “How do you manage to sleep every night with all that stuff, Mom?” I asked. To my horror, she replied to it because I know I have to get rid of all this stuff eventually; I am punishing myself by sleeping with them until I do that.”
Shocked and upset, I gently explained to her that punishing herself was only to make things worse, and that everybody deserves a place to sleep in peace, no matter what mistakes they’ve made. I suggested she move all th e stuff upstairs, leaving her room comfortable to sleep in.
With patience and her slow but steady guidance, I helped her go through some of the piles and move them upstairs. For the rest of the week I stayed there, she was in a better mood and was excited about going-through the rest of the
house to finally get rid of her stuff—past mistakes and painful times. The items brought back painful memories as we inspected and moved them, but I kept reminding her that removing them would allow her to move on and heal. We finally sold so many things and took bag after bag to charity.
The stuff is just a sign of the destructive patterns of self-hatred on past mistakes. Only through the act of
self-forgiveness can we bring about a chain reaction of reorganizing— both of the house and heart.
1、What made the author feel bitter?
A．She couldn’t understand her mom’s sorrows.
B．Her mom was stuck in the painful memories.
C．Her mom was always left alone at home.
D．Her mom wasted money on useless things,
2、The underlined word “that” in the second paragraph refers to ________.
A．getting rid of the stuff. B．buying the stuff
C．opening the stuff D．moving the stuff
3、We can infer from the passage that ________.
A．the author never bought her mom anything
B．the author’s mom has no money to purchase now
C．the author s mom regrets buying so many things
D．the author knows her mom’s suffering only this week
4、What’s the best title of the passage?
A．How to do shopping wisely B．The importance of self-forgiveness.
C．Keep an eye on the elderly’s behavior D．Clearance helps remove suffering
（8分）What’s small, buzzes here and there and visits flowers? If you said bees or hummingbirds, you got it.
24．
You wouldn’t be the first if you mixed the two up. Now a group of researchers even say we should embrace our history of considering the two together in the same group. The way scientists study bees could help them study hummingbird behavior, too.
Scientists first compared the two back in the 1970s when studying how animals search for food. The idea is that animals use a kind of math to make choices in order to minimize the work it takes to earn maximum rewards. Researchers at the time focused on movement rules, like the order in which they visited flowers, and where flowers were located rela tive to others. It was “almost like an algorithm(算法)” for efficient searching, said David Pritchard, a biologist at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland. Hummingbirds and bees had similar solutions.
As the field of animal cognition(认知) appeared, hummingbird and bee research parted. Neuroscientists and
behavioral ecologists developed ways to study bee behavior in naturalistic settings. Hummingbird researchers compared hummingbirds to other birds and borrowed methods from psychology to study their ability to learn in the lab. To be fair, hummingbirds and bees differ. For example, hummingbirds have more advanced eyes and brains than bees. Honeybees and bumblebees are social; hummingbirds typically aren’t.
But however they perceive(感知) or process information, they both experience similar information, Dr. Pritchard said. In day-to-day searching for food, for example, hummingbirds may rely on more of a bee’s-eye view than a
bird’s-eye view. Like other birds, they rely on landmarks, distances and directions to make maps when travelling long distances, but they don’t use these cues to find flowers. Move a flower just an inch or so away from where a hummingbird thought it was and it will hover over the flower’s original location. Dr. Pritchard is investigating if, like bees, hummingbirds engage in view matching — hovering, scanning snapshots of a place to its memory and using those as references later.
1、What is the center of research on hummingbirds and bees in the 1970s?
A．Memory.
B．Movement rules.
C．Reward calculating.
D．Information processing.
2、Which subject’s research methods were adopted to study the learning ability of Hummingbirds?
A．Math.
B．Biology.
C．Ecology.
D．Psychology.
3、How do researchers find out that hummingbirds are not like birds?
A．By setting them free.
B．By moving flowers.
C．By matching view.
D．By making maps.
4、Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A．Hummingbirds and Bees
B．Hummingbirds in the Lab
C．New Trends in Studying Bees
D．Thinking of Hummingbirds as Bees
25．
（10分）When Dee Dee Bridgewater learned that she would become a 2017 NEA Jazz Master, a series of thoughts and feelings flooded her mind. “It was so far out of my orbit and just my whole sphere of thinking,” she said in a conversation at NPR this spring, hours before she formally received her award.
She’s 66-far from retirement age in jazz, and on the extreme forward edge of the NEA Jazz Masters people. So she was aware of her relative youth in the field She also recognized that there haven’t been many women in the ra nks of NEA Jazz Masters: fewer than 20, out of 145. That idea led her to reflect on her predecessors (前任): legendary singers like Betty Carter* who was seated back in 1992, and Abbey Lincoln, who received the nod in 2003.
Bridgewater sought inspiration and advice from both Carter and Lincoln, as she recalls in this period of Jazz Night, which features music recorded during the season opener for Jazz at Lincoln Center. On a program called “Songs of Freedom”, organized by drummer Ulysses Owens, Jr., Bridgewat er sang material associated with Lincoln as well as Nina Simone: an extremely angry song of the civil rights movement, like “Mississippi Goddam”.
A separate concert, “Songs We Love”, found Bridgewater singing less politically charged (but still exciting) f are like “St. James Infirmary”, which appears on her most recent album. In words as well as music, this period reveals how seriously Bridgewater takes that responsibility, seeing as how it connects to her own experience in the jazz lineage. But maybe “seriously” isn’t the right word when it comes to Dee Dee, whose effervescence (欢腾) shines through even in a reflective mood. Join her here for a while; she’s excellent company, no more or less so now that mastery is officially a part of her resume.
1、What did Bridgewater think of her winning the award?
A．It confused her.
B．It was beyond her expectation.
C．It won great popular support for her.
D．It gave her much confidence about her career.
2、What can we learn about the musicians winning NEA Jazz Masters?
A．Women ranked higher than men.
B．Men accounted for a bigger part of them.
C．Most of them were unwilling to retire at first.
D．Many of them received the award at an early age.
3、Who is more likely to have a great influence on Bridgewater?
A．Carter and Lincoln. B．Ulysses and Lincoln.
C．Nina Simone and Carter. D．Nina Simone and Ulysses.
4、What does the last paragraph mainly talk about?
A．Bridgewater’s music theme.
B．Bridgewater’s music experience.
C．Bridgewater’s personal characters.
D．Bridgewater’s great ach ievements.

Beware of those who use the truth to deceive. When someone tells you something that is 1 , but leaves out important information that should be 2 , he can create a false impression.
For example, someone might say, “I just 3 a hundred dollars on the lottery. It was great. I took that dollar ticket back to the store and 4 it in for one hundred dollars!”
This guy’s a winner, 5 ? Maybe, maybe not. We then discover that he bought two hundred 6 , and only one was a winner. He’s really a big7 !
He didn’t say anything that was8 , but he deliberately left out some important 9 That’s called a half-truth. Half-truths are not technically 10 , but they are just as not 11 .

16 , an honest statement would have been, “During Governor Smith’s term, the state had a net gain of17

29、I'm awfully sorry to tell you that I have lost your newly-bought flash drive. Now I am writing to express my deepest apology for my carelessness.
As a matter of fact, it was in my schoolbag that I put the flash drive after we met in the library. But to my sadness, I was about to make a copy of what I possessed in the flash drive when I found it was missing. I guess that I lost it on my way to the library. I should have kept it with great care.
However, you can depend on it that I will buy you a completely new one by the end of this week although it is a little expensive for me. I do apologize to you again for not being able to return it on schedule. Please forgive me and accept my sincere apology.。
