ASomething you may not know about End of HeatThe traditional Chinese lunar calendar divides the year into 24 solar terms. End of Heat is the 14th solar term of the year, which implies that most parts in China are getting rid of the hot summer and entering autumn.

End of Heat is also the busy harvest season for farmers.The following are the things you should know about End of Heat.Time for night-blooming cereus(昙花)The night-blooming cereus is a flower full of mystery, which often blooms during the period of End of Heat.

During this period, the Fishing Season Festival is held in regions along the coastline of the East China Sea in Zhejiang province. The festival is held on the day when the fishing ban ends and fishermen can start fishing again. Due to high temperatures in the sea, stocks of fish remain and become mature.

The areas beyond the Great Wall are still hot.C.In south China, the temperature is still high.D. It is the end of the harvest season for farmers.2.

When a library goer scanned Tutu’s QR code, Wangbao seemingly became annoyed, which brought a great amusement to the library goer who posted a video of the exchange that occurred on December 30 and has gone viral on social media.“Tutu, let’s stop fighting, OK?”said Wangbao.“Your mood sure swings a lot!”Tutu said.Wangbao raved, “Aren’t you a drama queen, I’m giving you an out. Stop being petulant!’’The library goer was even more amused, as the two robots grew noisier and angrier with each other, and finally, abruptly turning away from each other like naughty children.“It looks like how you quarrel with your girlfriend, ha-ha. ”one netizen posted.“I see myself from the quarrel, ”wrote another on Sina Weibo, which was echoed by many others.“It’s annoying to hear people arguing, and I didn’t expect I'd have to listen to robots arguing, ”another netizen wrote.The online video was widely circulating on Sina Weibo, with some 500, 000 views as of press time on Saturday. Tutu and Wangbao became internet hot figures, even attracting attention from major news outlets in the country.When the two online celebrities were interviewed by reporters on Friday, the two seems already forgave each other after three days.“It was a thing last year…Isn’t it normal to have quarrels between friends?’’Wangbao said in video posted by the Xinhua News Agency on Saturday.4. What’s the purpose of paragraph one?A. To show how smart the two robots are.B. To increase our awareness of AI technology.C. To introduce the following parts.D. To criticize the quarrel between the two robots.5. What was the library goer’s attitude towards the argument?A. Amazed.B. Entertained.C. Puzzled.D.

Where is the text most likely from?A. A textbook.B. A diary.C. A magazine.D. A website.CAs Australia experiences record-breaking drought and bush-fires, koala populations have declined along with their habitat, leading to koalas becoming“functionally extinct”. The chairman of the Australian Koala Foundation, Tabart, estimates that over 1, 000 koalas have been killed from the fires and that 80 percent of their habitat has been destroyed.Functional extinction is when a population becomes so limited that they no longer play an important role in their ecosystem and the population becomes no longer possible to live.Deforestation and bush-fires destroy the main food source of koalas, the eucalyptus(桉树)tree. An adult koala will eat up to 2 pounds of eucalyptus leaves per day as its main food.Many are asking the Australian government to pass The Koala Protection Act, written in 2016 but never passed into law. The Koala Protection Act would work to protect habitat and trees important to koala as well as protect koalas from hunting.Recent videos of Australians saving koalas has led to increased donation to help burned koalas. The Port Macquarie Koala Hospital set up a Go Fund Me page seeking donations to help the hospital treat injured koalas. To date, they have raised$1. 33 million, well over their $25, 000 goal, which comes from over 30, 000 donors. The funds will also be used for a“Koala Ark”as a refuge for burned koalas to live in healthy habitat.8.According to the first paragraph, what can we know about the drought and bush-fires?A. They are the most serious ones in the history of Australian.B. They have made koalas extinct.C. They have killed 80%of the koalas.D. They brought the most serious influence to Australian.9. When does functional extinction happen?A. When a species becomes extinct.B. When a species is limited to certain habitat.C. When ecosystem no longer plays an important role.D. When the number of a species becomes so small that they have little chance to live. 10.According to the passage, the following statements are true EXCEPT that_____.A. koalas mainly feed on eucalyptus tree leavesB. the Australian government has passed The Koala Protection Act into lawC. The Koala Protection Act is aimed to protect koalas and its habitatD. a good many Australians are quite concerned about koalas11. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. Some videos require people to donate for koalas.B. Go Fund Me page treated injured koalas.C. Australians have deep love for koalas and donate generously to help them.D. The funds will be used to set up healthy habitat for koalas.DChildren born in the past four decades had the luxury of being the center of their parents’attention. The entire family’s resources were poured into their education and well-being.However, when the same resources are split between two children, the amount distributed to each one is going to shrink.According to the Hangzhou Daily, when there are two children in the family, parents tend to choose public schools instead of private schools, which are usually more expensive.Each child is enrolled in fewer after-school training classes.But having a second child may cure some deep-rooted problems in China’s traditional family education.Having two children in the family can help to prevent one child being spoiled by too much attention, according to People’s Daily. It also spares the only child from the pressure of shouldering parental expectations all alone. Taking care of a sibling also enables children to gain a sense of responsibility, cooperation, obedience and caring.China’s public education system is also expected to shift. Currently, there are not enough vacancies in kindergarten and schools to accommodate the potential increase in children.“It’s not only the enrollment capacity of educational institutions that will feel the pressure.People are also placing more emphasis on the quality of education, ”Peng Xizhe, director of the Population and Development Research Policy Center at Fudan University, told China Education Daily.He predicts the government may have to invest more to support the educational system as a result of the new family planning measure.12. What can children benefit from a two-child family?A. They can have less pressure.B. They can study in private schools.C. They can get much more attention.D. They can take more after-school training classes.13. Which of the following words can replace the underlined word“accommodate”?A. holdB. adaptC. solveD. consider14. What can we infer from Peng Xizhe’s words?A. People are placing more emphasis on the quality of education.B. The government may have to invest more to support the educational system.C. The new family planning measure will challenge the current educational system.D. The educational institutions will feel the pressure that their capacity is not enough.15. What is the purpose of this text?A. To show benefits of owning two children.B. To persuade people to bear more children.C. To encourage people to have only one child.D. To introduce the impact of two-child policy.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。

AFor or Against?—That Is the QuestionAndy is the most unreasonable and he makes me so angry that I could even scream sometimes!Of course,I sort of have to love him because he is my twin brother.Andy and Amy(that is me)have the same curly hair and dark eyes and are equally stubborn.Yet,on most issues we usually take opposite positions.Just this week in our school,there was a heated discussion on whether to adopt a school dress code. Every student would be required to wear a uniform.The teachers are divided:Some are in favor of the uniforms while others are opposed.The principal has asked the students to express their opinions by voting on the issue before decisions are made.But she will have the final word on the dress code.I think a dress code is a good idea.The reason is simple.The less I have to decide first thing in the morning,the better.I can't tell you how many mornings I look into my closet and just stare,unable to decide what to wear.Andy is shocked at my st night,he even dragged out my parents'high school photo albums to show me how brilliant they looked without uniforms!He also declared,"Bruce Springsteen never wore a school uniform.Bob Dylan wouldn't have been caught dead in a school uniform!Besides,when I am feeling political,I want to be able to wear clothes made of natural,undyed fibers,sewn or assembled in countries that do not pollute the environment or exploit child labor.If I have to wear a uniform,I won't feel like me!"To that I replied,"So your personal heroes didn't wear school uniforms.But they went to high school about a million years ago!I feel sorry for you since I had no idea that your ego(自我)is so fragile that it would be completely destroyed by a uniform."That really made him angry and he shouted,"You're just copying what you hear that new music teacher saying because you are crazy about him!"Fortunately,the bell rang before we could do each other physical harm,and we went to our separate classes.The vote for or against uniforms took place later that day.The results of the vote and the principal's decision will be announced next week.I wonder what it will be.I know how I voted,and I'm pretty sure I know how Andy voted.How would you vote---for or against?1.Amy and Andy often get angry with each other because______.A.they're both stubborn B.they like different teachersC.they always hold different views D.they don't like each other very much2.Amy holds the idea that______.A.school clothing should reflect parents'valuesB.teenagers should never follow the latest clothing fashionC.the way one dresses should be an expression of one's personalityD.wearing school uniforms means one makes less decision every morning3.Who will decide whether the students should wear uniforms?A.The principal.B.Their parents.C.Their teachers.D.Students themselves.4.In Paragraph5,Amy aims to say that______.A.Andy shouldn't look up to his heroes so muchB.our clothes should decide people's attitudes towards usC.Andy's lack of self-confidence is reflected in his clothingD.our clothes shouldn't determine how we feel about ourselvesBA study of more than five million books,both fiction and non-fiction,has found a marked decline in the use of emotional words over time.The researchers form the University of Bristol used Google Ngram Viewer,an online database for finding the frequency of terms in scanned books,to look for more than600particular words identified as representing anger,dislike,fear,joy,sadness and surprise.They found that almost all of the categories showed a drop in these“mood words”over time.Only in the category of fear was there an increase in usage.“It is a steady and continuous decline,”said Dr Alberto Acerbi.He assumed that the result might be explained by a change in the position occupied by literature,in a crowded media landscape.“One thing could be that in parallel to books the20th century saw the start of other media.Maybe these media—movies,radio, drama—had more emotional content than books.”Although both joy and sadness followed the general downwards trend,the research,published in the journal PLOS One,found that they also exhibited another interesting behavior:the ratio(比率)between the two varied greatly,apparently mirroring historical events.During the Roaring Twenties the joy-to-sadness ratio reached its highest point that would not occur again until before the recent financial crash.Then,in1941,the ratio plunged at the height of World War II.Nevertheless,the researchers held a reserved opinion about their claim that their result reflected wider social trends.In the paper,they even argue that the opposite could be true.“It has been suggested,for example,that it was the suppression(压抑)of desire in ordinary Elizabethan English life that increased demand for writing‘filled with romance’…perhaps,”they conclude,“songs and books may not reflect the real population any more than catwalk models reflect the average body.”5.The study was carried out by way of_________.A.scanning the books with an online scanner B.counting the number of words in the booksC.searching digitized texts for emotional words D.analyzing different topics of the books6.Which of the following is one of the research findings?A.Usage decreased in all the categories of mood words.B.Usage of most mood words kept falling over time.C.The decline was caused by the rise of other media.D.The unfavorable position of literature led to the decline.7.What does the underlined word“plunged”probably mean?A.increased B.changed C.dropped D.twisted8.The researchers suspect that_______________.A.their research result reflected wider social trends.B.their research result was the contrary of social trends.C.there was a suppression of desire in Elizabethan English life.D.catwalk models reflect the population better than songs and books.COur emotions can vary considerably depending on many factors,including our health,wealth,relationships and where we live.But sometimes we need to take a step back and think about what happiness really means and how we can find it.Maybe we should take a leaf out of Finland's book—last year the UN's World Happiness Report found the country to be the happiest place on earth.The report looked at"subjective well-being".That's how happy people feel they are and why—based on factors such as economic strength,social support,life expectancy,freedom of choice and generosity.Research has also suggested that while personal feelings of pleasure are the accepted definition of happiness in Western cultures,East Asian cultures tend to see happiness as social harmony,and in some parts of Africa and India it's more about shared experiences and family.Author Helen Russell has been looking at the positive characteristics of a country's population to see what makes them happy and found Japan to be one of the most content.She said this was due to their concept of wabi-sabi—"This traditional Japanese concept around celebrating imperfection...it's this idea that there is a beauty in ageing,it's to be celebrated rather than trying to disguise it."So,basically,we should be happy with who we are and rejoice in our faults and individuality.But if you're feeling down in the dumps because your home country doesn't have a happiness concept to follow,consider some self-help ideas which include being virtuous,finding something to be passionate about, enjoying the here and now and being altruistic—helping others.However,our pursuit of happiness could make us miserable as we try to meet society's expectations and goals,making us anxious and stressed.Also,having too little experience of negative emotions can make us less adept(熟练的)at facing new challenges.9.What is happiness in East Asian cultures?A.Personal pleasure.B.Harmony of society.C.Subjective well-being.D.Shared experiences and family.10.What does the underlined word"rejoice"in Paragraph4probably mean?A.Be restless.B.Be tolerant.C.Be delighted.D.Be ashamed.11.What is the author's advice in the last paragraph?A.Setting up a happiness concept of your home country.B.Giving others in need a helping hand unselfishly.C.Thinking twice about accepting new challenges.D.Sticking to meeting society's expectations.12.What is this text most likely from?A.A diary.B.A guidebook.C.A novel.D.A magazine.DWolff

We may think of the fictional characters with supernatural power or great people who can influence world events. Now, as the nation continues its all-out efforts to fight against the novel coronavirus pneumonia(新型冠状病毒肺炎), medical staff have become heroes in the eyes of the public.So far, a total of 32, 000 medical staff outside Hubei Province have been working to treat patients around the center of the outbreak.Zhang Dingyu, the president of Wuhan Jinyintan Hospital, is one of these heroes. Since the hospital received the first seven patients in December, Zhang has been so busy that he barely gets any sleep. Even suffering from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (肌萎缩侧索硬化), the 56-year-old doctor is doing his best to quicken his pace to save precious time for infected patients. “I have torun, racing against time to save more patients from the deadly disease, because I don’t have much time left in my life, ” Zhang told Xinhua News Agency.With the duty of saving lives, many medical professionals like Zhang have been working long hours for days, despite their fear and worries.Lu Jingjing from Wuhan Children’s Hospital also works at a temporary mobile hospital. She does not let her parents know that she is now working with novel coronavirus-infected patients. When her parents ask for a video chat, Lu says she is working and lets her husband and children chat with them instead.“It’s dangerous but we should win the battle with the virus as soon as possible, so that medical staff and patients can go back home, ” she told China Daily.US writer Khalil Gibran (1883-1931) once wrote, “Tenderness and kindness ar e not signs of weakness and despair, but the manifestations of strength and resolution.” It’s true for the medical workers.Everyone has fear, especially when it comes to deadly diseases. But for medical staff, saving lives comes first and is enough for them to be brave and stay on the front. They may look like ordinary people in daily life, but in these extraordinary times, they are heroes.4. What is the author’s main purpose in writing this passage?A. To explain what makes a modern-day hero.B. To praise medical staff for their efforts to fight the NCP.C. To describe what measures China has taken to deal with the virus.D. To show the difficulties faced by medical staff treating NCP patients.5. What do we learn from Zhang Dingyu’s words?A. His illness has turned him into an impatient man.B. His illness makes him work without fear.C. He feels sorry for himself because of his illness.D. He wants to help as many patients as possible.6. Why doesn’t Lu Jingjing answer her parents’ video calls?A. She is too busy and has no time for video chats.B. She doesn’t want her parents to worry about her.C. It’s not allowed to make a video call from the hospital.D. There is no WiFi signal at the temporary mobile hospital.7. The underlined word “manifestations” in the second-to-last paragraph probably means “____”.A. resultsB. differencesC. indicationsD. advantagesCCoral reefs (珊瑚礁) are an integral part of sea life and sustain it by providing shelter and habitat to various organisms. They also supply and recycle nutrients and enable a growing fish population, along with other species, for a healthy and diverse ecosystem. However, the rise in average water temperatures due to climate change has resulted in more frequent and longtime coral bleaching (白化现象) events that damage their health, causing fish and other sea species to abandon them.In order to restore this delicate ecosystem, scientists from the UK and Australia conducted a study that involved using loudspeakers underwater near damaged coral reefs to make them sound healthy and attract fish, potentially kick-starting the natural recovery process of coral reefs and their dependent life forms. The location for this experiment was the Great Barrier Reef in the Coral Sea, found alongside the east coast of Queensland, Australia. The site is noted to have the largest coral reef system in the world.“Healthy coral reefs are remarkably noisy places—the crackle of snapping shrimp and the whoops and grunts of fish. Young fish concentrate on these soun ds when they’re looking for a place to settle, ” said Steve Simpson, study co-author and a professor at the University of Exeter, UK.By using loudspeakers to copy such sounds, parts of dead coral reefs were found to attract twice as many fish, compared to places where no sounds were played. “These returning fish, are crucial for coral reefs to function as healthy ecosystems. Boosting fish populations in this way could help to kick-start natural recovery processes, preventing the damage we’re seeing on m any coral reefs around the world, ” said lead author, Tim Gordon.8. What causes the phenomenon of coral bleaching?A. Diverse species.B. Noise pollution.C. Fishing industry.D. Climbing temperatures.9. What approach is introduced to recover the coral reefs?A. Removing damaged coral reefs.B. Using loudspeakers to keep fish away.C. Building new homes for sea species.D. Playing certain sounds to attract fish.10. Why are Steve Simpson’s words quoted?A. To provide some findings of the study.B. To show the progress of the experiment.C. To explain reasons for the new approach.D. To give another solution to the problem.11. What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. The attempts are in vain.B. Natural recovery is impossible.C. Initial success has been achieved.D. The coral reefs have returned to normal.DAs we reflect on the evolution of fitness over the centuries, and the emergence of a well-organized and growing “fitness” market and industry, it is well to ask ourselves: what have we lost, and what have we gained?Obviously, much good has come out of these recent developments: there’s widespread awareness of the importance of regular exercise, nearly every community has a gym or fitness club where people can go or pay to work out, and we understand more about how the human body works. Yet despite the many health and fitness methods, programs, and resources, the general population has never been so physically sedentary(久坐的) and out-of-shape. A recent World Health Organization report indicates that life expectancy(寿命) in the US dropped for the first time since 1993. The health of modern people is declining, despite highly advanced medical technologies and the booming health and fitness industry.How could that be? A large part of it is motivation. People are simply not as motivated to move their body and get healthy as they were in the past. We live in a society where the inabilityto operate one’s body in a practical and effective manner is no longer an embarrassing condition. The fitness industry, no matter how good each new program claims to be, has failed to get the majority of people to value, practice, and enjoy physical exercise.So, should we expect the answer to this dilemma to come from even more varied, or more technologically advanced programs and equipment? Or will the solution come from a different mindset, a simpler approach and practice, and overall a new culture?12. What does the author tell us about fitness industry in Paragraph 2?A. It provides better technology.B. It is supported by most people.C. It brings about positive effects.D. It costs people too much money.13. What is main reason why people fail to do physical exercise?A. Lack of enough equipment.B. Lack of inner drive.C. Misguided instructions.D. Embarrassing living conditions.14. What does the author seem to agree with?A. Change attitudes to fitness.B. Rely on standard practice.C. Seek more potential customers.D. Turn to more advanced programs.15. What is the best title for the passage?A. Lost in fitnessB. Misunderstanding about fitnessC. Evolution of fitnessD. Importance of fitness第二节(共5小题;每小题2. 5分, 满分12. 5分)阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

Accessible only by boat or plane, the 6-kilometer-long area is popular with outdoor enthusiasts. Its dense forests are home to a variety of wildlife, including mountain goats, eagles, etc. Now, thanks to a crowdfunding campaign, the land will be preserved forever for future generations to enjoy.The chain of events began in June 2019, when three neighboring privately-owned land parcels came up for sale. With several logging companies expressing interest, BC Parks Foundation knew it had to do something to save the land. Although it had “zero funds”, the nonprofit foundation agreed to acquire the land for CAN $ 3 million(US$ 2.3 million). Fortunately, the owners gave the nonprofit three months to collect the money.After much consideration, the nonprofit decided to reach out to the general public through a crowdfunding campaign. To its surprise, money started rolling in from people worldwide. Among the donors was a class of fifth-grade students from Cambridge Elementary School in Surrey, British Columbia, who raised an impressive CAN $1,109 for the cause.But in spite of the outpouring of support, on August 28, 2019——the day of the sale deadline, the nonprofit was still short of CAN $ 100,000. Just as the officials thought there was no chance of success, a businessman from Vancouver stepped i n with the funds. He wrote, “These protected areas are our crown jewels, and I think it’s madness to consider letting them go for short-term economic gain when they always provide much more.”“It’s just an amazing thing people have done. They together have saved the fjord,” said BC Parks Foundation CEO Andrew Day. “Hopefully we do see more of this kind of thing, in the right places at the right time.”4.What can we say about Princess Louisa Inlet according to paragraph 1?A.It is a wild place and not approachable. B.It is impressive but not easily accessible.C.It is likely to be at risk of being in ruins. D.It is especially loved by indoor enthusiasts.5.What is beyond the expectation of BC Parks Foundation?A.People’s sincere pray for the Inlet.B.The sacrifice of logging companies.C.People’s support for the campaign.D.The permission to purchase the land.6.How did the officials feel at first on the day of the sale deadline?A.Hopeless. B.Cautious. C.Annoyed. D.Serious.7.Why are Andrew Day’s words mentio ned?A.To introduce the beauty of the wilderness. B.To stress the significance of the campaign.C.To show the benefits of exploring the fjord. D.To evaluate the value of Princess Louisa Inlet.CEcoTreasures, a young tour company based in Sydney, have involved a new plan in their Manly Coastal Walks to remove marine debris from Penguin habitats.The tour company specializes in Ecotourism experiences on Sydney’s Northern Beaches and withinKu-ring-gai Chase National Park, New South Wales. Ecotreasures have been lucky to host a range of international study tour students visiting Sydney this winter, who have been participating in the plan. The students arrive in Australia for short stays of generally 7—14 days, which consist of English lessons and Australia tour experiences. EcoTreasures owner, Damien McClellan, has been happy to host the students on his tours and to involve a new element in the half-day adventure, with a purpose to clean up marine debris that accumulates in the natural environment known to be the habitat for little penguins.McClellan has been very proud to run these tours, which highlight a range of environmental awareness messages, and mentions, “when we visit the little penguin habitat at Collins Beach in Sydney Harbour National Park we conduct a beach clean-up. The students always put in 110% and we remove as much as marine debris from the catchment(积水处) as possible. We are all giving back to the location we are appreciating because of its natural beauty, and I’m proud of all these internati onal guests caring for Australia’s environment.”The tours offer a great display of Sydney’s natural setting right on the city’s door step. Mr. McClellan also adds, “The students and teachers really enjoy their experience on the walk around Manly. We visit the beach, Sydney Harbour National Park, Cabbage tree Aquatic reserve and Manly suburbs all in a half day adventure. We always keep the walk fun and interesting by identifying native plants & searching for Whales from land with binoculars and other wildli fe along the way.”EcoTreasures was founded in 2010 by Damien McClellan, and the business is looking forward to working with more partners in the future, developing new ecotourism plans for a range of target markets, and keeping it fun is part of the plan. EcoTreasures is Advanced Ecotourism and ROC certified.8.What does EcoTreasures mainly specialize in?A.protecting Little Penguins.B.teaching students about environmental protection.C.cleaning up penguin habitats.D.holding ecotours in certain areas.9.The underlined word “debris” in Paragraph 1 has a similar meaning to _________A.water B.animal C.trash D.rock.10.What does Mr. McClellan want to express in the third paragraph?A.His appreciation for natural beauty.

D.The importance of raising environmental awareness. 11.We can infer from the fourth paragraph that ____________.A.the tours are pleasant and valuable. B.the tours make the students tired.C.the tours are held far from Sydney. D.the tours are held mainly for studentsDSorry to say, our brains naturally start slowing down at the cruelly young age of 30. It used to be thought that this couldn’t be helped, but people of any age could train their brains to be faster and, in effect, younger. Your brain is a learning machine. Given the right tools, we can train our brains to act like they did when we were younger. All that’s required is dedicated (专注的) practice: exercises for the mind.A scientist has developed a computer—based training schedule to speed up how the brain processes information, Brain HQ. Since much of the data we receive comes through speech, the Brain Fitness Program works with language and hearing to improve both speed and accuracy. Over the course of your training, the program starts asking you to distingui sh sounds (between “dog” and “bog”, for instance) at an increasinglyfaster rate. It’s a bit like a tennis instructor, shooting balls at you faster and faster over the course of the summer to keep you challenged. Though you may have started out slow, a mon th later you’re pretty quick.The biggest finding in brain research in the last ten years is that the brain at any age is highly adaptable. If you ask your brain to learn it will learn. And it may speed up in the process. To keep your brain young, you can do one of a million new activities that challenge and excite you: playing Ping-Pong or contract bridge, doing puzzles, learning new language or a dance, taking piano lessons, building model airplane mastering gardening technique, discovering the secrets of beer-making and, sure, relearning advanced mathematics. Anything that closely engages your focus and is strongly rewarding will kick your brain into learning mode and will definitely improve it.12.Why did the author call our brain a learning machine?A.It works well at any age. B.It can be trained to be sharp.C.It helps you acquire knowledge. D.It can be used to store information.13.What are you asked to do during the Brain Fitness Program?A.Speak a language at a high speed. B.Tell apart words that sound similar.C.List words that have the same meanings.D.Receive tennis balls thrown by an instructor. 14.Which of the following best describes’ learning process of the brain?A.Faster and faster. B.Hard and difficult.C.Tired but delighted. D.Easy but beneficial.15.What do we know from the last paragraph?A.The function of the brain. B.Fitness program arrangement.C.Activities used to train the brain. D.Pleasure from different activities.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。

ARachel Hore’s fascinating novels move between the past and the present. Her latest The House on Bellevue Gardens is set in London now and in the early 1960s.Best-selling author Rachel Hore’s previous novels include The Glass Painter’s Daughter, which was shortlisted(入围) for the 2010 Romantic Novel of the Year award, and A Gathering Storm, which was shortlisted for the 2012 Historical Novel of the Year award.Here, she shares three books that made an impact on her life.Orlandoby Virginia WoolfReading Orlando for the first time in my late teens gave me a wonderful sense of freedom and the possibilities that a life full of books can offer. Forever young, Orlando possesses “the strength of a man and a woman’s grace”.He lives through four centuries and has many disguises; sometimes he even changes his gender.It was an excellent literary work through history that excited and inspired me.Flight Behaviourby Barbara KingsolverI’ve read many of Barbara Kingsolver’s novels, including her well-known The Poisonwood Bible, admiring how easily she writes about the power and beauty of the natural world, of which humanity is a dependent part.I particularly love Flight Behaviour because she engages the reader easily with an ambitious subject for fiction — climate change.Her story makes us all care about what we are doing to our world.The Hawk in the Rainby Ted HughesWe were given The Thought Fox to read at school and I was so deeply impressed with its central image of the fox in the snow inspiring the poem that I spent that week’s money on the book it appears in. I read and re-read it and was amazed!I loved the writer’s technique of d escription, as well as the energy, the violence and the sensuousness (敏感) of those poems.Everyone should have their ‘discovery of poetry’ moment, and mine was Ted Hughes.

According to most psychologists (心理学家), we all do, especially nowadays when so many other aspects (方面) of modern life are changing. It seems that having friends keeps us both healthy and happy.The number of TV series about groups of friends shows just how important friendship is to us. Psychologist Dorothy Rowe says that many of us now turn to our friends, instead of our families, for advice, comfort and security (安全感). One woman named Rebecca she interviewed even told her that if she had got to choose between her husband and her friend, she would choose her friend.Since our friends mean so much to us, it is not surprising that the happiest marriages are also friendships. “Once the romantic stage of a relationship has passed, it is friendshi p that holds people together,” says Rowe. If the couple do not make some change, they will either get tired of each other and break up or stay together and seek friendship with others.But is friendship equally important to women and men? According to author Rhonda Pritchard, women are more likely than men to have close friends. “You tell a friend things that you’d never tell a partner”, says one woman she interviewed. For men, friendship is usually based on doing things together rather than the private conversations that are typical of women friend. Men share time and activities like building a fence or a business, running, riding a bike, fishing or watching football, but they don’t often share their feelings.Although many women find their relationships with a husband or boyfriend is not enough, many men say that their partner is their best friend. Even women who are very happily married are likely to become very unhappy without a close friend and can even find the breakup of a close friend as painful as the end of a marriage.( )4.What did Rebecca think about friendship?A.Families are reliable forever. B.Her friend means more to her than her husband C.One needn’t have too many friends. D.Friends are as important as families. ( )5.Some couples look for friends outside their relationships because . A.they are encouraged by their partners.B.they are not fairly treated by their partnersC.they don’t get what they need from their partners.D.they think their friends are more romantic.( )6.Wha t is the main difference between men’s and women’s friendships?A.Women often do things together.B.Women often talk about business with friends.C.Men seldom talk about their feelings.D.Men often talk to their friends about work and family.( )7.When a friendship ends, some women may .A.feel as upset as when a marriage ends. B.share feelings with their partners. C.treat their partners as friends. D.turn to their husband for comfort.C“Everything happens for the best.” My mother said whenev er things weren't going my way. “Don’t worry. One day your luck will change.”Mother was right, as I discovered after I had finished my college education. I had decided to try for a job in a radio station. One day, I wanted to host (主持) a sports program. I went to Chicago and knocked at the door of every station. But I got turned down every time.In one station, a kind lady said my problem was that I hadn’t got enough experience. “Get some work in a small station and work your way up,” she said.I went back home. I couldn’t get a job there, either. Then my dad told me a businessman had opened a store and needed someone to help him. But again, I didn’t get the job.I felt really down. “Your luck will change,” Mom said to me. Dad lent me t he car to help me to look for my job. I tried another radio station in Iowa. But the owner, a nice man, told me he had already had someone.As I left his office, I asked, “How can someone be a sports announcer if he can’t get ajob in a radio station?”I w as waiting for the lift when I heard the man called, “What did you mean? Do you know anything about football?” He put me in front of a microphone and asked me to try to imagine that I was giving my opinion on a football game. I succeeded.On my way home, M om’s words came back to me, “One day your luck will change, Son. And when it happens, you’ll feel good because of all the hard work you have done.” At that moment I knew just what she meant.( )8.What job was the writer most interested in?A.A sportsman.

What if we could jump, loop and travel through time in a machine? What if we could go wherever and whenever we pleased?This ability would allow us to witness historic wonders, change decisions and see people from the past. We could right wrongs and stop wars from starting.The mysterious puzzle of time has kept people debating its nature for hundreds of years. Science fiction writers have turned it into imaginative stories. Some scientists have even attempted to explain it using math. This math tries to make the dream of time travel come true.The scientist Albert Einstein said that time and space are one thing. He called it “spacetime.” Einstein said t hat there are three dimensions in space: height, width and depth. A scientist named Hermann Minkowski added time as a fourth dimension.Einstein introduced two ideas that have led to theories about the possibility of time travel. The first is relativity. The idea of relativity is that the force of gravity causes space to bend, which causes time to twist. The second idea focuses on special relativity. The idea is that a traveler moving super-fast through flat spacetime will enter the future. Einstein considered time “relative” because it is measured based on where we are on Earth or in space.Stephen Hawking is a famous scientist. He believes that a time machine will never be built. If it were possible, he thinks we would already know. If a time machine could be built, how come no one from the future has invaded us?The first science fiction story with this theme is The Clock That Went Backward by Edward P. Mitchell, which was published in 1881. Since then, thousands of books, films and television shows have explored the idea of time travel, in which some tools such as phones, watches, photographs and old books take travelers backward and forward.Will time travel ever happen? Who knows? Most important is to keep your eyes open and have a sense of wonder.( )12.What is the author’s purpose of writing the first paragraph?A.To show time and space are connected.B.To show people’s interest in time travel.C.To draw readers’ attention to time travel.D.To make people believe time travel is possible.( )13.Which of the following statement could Einstein agree with?A.Time travel is possible in the future. B.People can’t move faster than light. C.Time travel is against scientific rules. D.Spacetime is not a real thing in theory. ( )14.What is the last but one paragraph mainly about?A.The first science fiction story. B.Some tools used in time travel. C.Edward P. Mitchell, the pioneer. D.Different works about time travel. ( )15.What is the writer’s attitude toward time travel?A.Cautious. B.Approving. C.Doubtful. D.Hopeful.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

D.Advertisement.BIt’s a Saturday night, the kids are asleep and we have no plans. Before we fall into our routine and watch a movie, I try to talk my husband into playing a card game. Unconvinced, he continues tapping away on his phone. But just before disappearing into the social media rabbit hole, he has a n idea. He looks over me and suggests, “Why don’t we try calling one of our friends?”I look at him with raised brows, as if his suggestion is somewhat ridiculous and perhaps evensocially unacceptable. You can’t just call someone out of the blue now…right? But then I realize in the not so distant past, this was the norm. My early teenage years saw me connecting with friends through a phone. We could chat for hours about the latest gossip and news, sometimes hidding under my blanket in order to avoid the chances of being caught by my parents. I could even memorize the phone numbers of loved ones then. I guess these days, they would be on my “Favorites” list in my smartphone.Today, many of my “favorite” people are followed from a distance through social medi a, and even they very rarely—if ever—would get an actual call from me. The birth announcement by my oldest friend is received through scrolling the past pictures. The news of a divorce from a couple arrives after a photo of a woman led me on a search for more gossip. Bits of such information, may have been a part of my digital feed for years. The idea of actually picking up the phone to reconnect with a long-lost friend is a frightening one—even seeing the name of an old friend pop up in an incoming call can feel a little afraid.I ask my husband, “Who would we call?” After tossing around a few names, we agree on some potential candidates—people whose lives have taken them in different directions, but with whom we still share deep friendships.4.How does the author feel about her husband’s suggestion at first?A.Excited.

Areas with more trees tend to be less polluted, so spending time there allows you to breathe easier. Spending time outdoors has been linked with reduced blood pressure and stress, and seems to motivate people to exercise more. So it’ll come as no surprise that there's research showing that spending time in nature is good, which has been known for thousands of years. There’s dozens of papers showing that.University of Exeter Medical School researcher Mathew P. White said “We get this idea, patients are coming to us and they’re saying, ‘doctor, how long should I spend?’ and the doctor is saying, I don’t really know.” So White and his team decided to find out by using data collected from nearly 20,000 people in England through the Monitor of Engagement with the Natural Environment Survey. And their answer? Two hours a week. People who spent at least that much time-either all at once or totaled over several shorter visits-were more likely to report good health and psychological well-being than those with no nature exposure. Remarkably, the researchers found that less than two hours offered no significant benefits.So what’s so special about two hours? “ I have absolutely no idea. Really. We didn’t have an apriori(由因及果的)guess at what this would be. It emerged. And I’d be lying if I said we predicted this. I don’t know.” Even more noteworthy, th e two-hour benchmark(基准)applied to men and women, to older and younger folks, to people from different ethnic backgrounds, occupational groups, socioeconomic levels and so on. Even people with long-term illnesses or disabilities benefited from time spent in nature—as long as it was at least 120 minutes per week.While the findings are based on a tremendous number of people, nobody knows why or how nature has this benefit. “I want to be really clear about this. This is very early stages. We’re not saying everybody has to do 120. What research do we need to take this to the next step before doctors can have the true confidence to work with their patients? But it’ s certainly a starting point,” White said.8.What is the first paragraph mainly about?A.The benefits of spending time in nature.。
