Megan Piphus Peace is one of them: In late 2021, she became the show’s first full-time black woman puppeteer, playing a 6-year-old black girl named Gabrielle. Last month, she officially left her real estate career. “I always dreamed of working in television, but I never imagined myself being on Sesame Street,” she says.Piphus Peace, now 29, grew up watching Sesame Street. As a young child, she considered the puppets to be her companions, not realizing until she was older that they weren’t real. She has been pursuing puppeteering since then. At Vanderbilt University, where she studied economics, she was known as the “Vanderbilt Ventriloquist (腹语表演者).” She even appeared on The Tonight Show in 2012 and America’s Got Talent in 2013.One of Piphus Peace’s teachers, Leslie Carrara-Rudolph, who played the Sesame Street character Abby Cadabby in 2006, says that Piphus Peace is a gifted storyteller and natural leader. “To say that I was amazed by Megan would be an understatement,”Carrara-Rudolph says. “I was inspired by her loving heart, strength of character, humor, humanity and what an energetic creative force she is.”Although Piphus Peace submitted her first video audition (试演) to Sesame Street in 2017, she didn’t hear back until 2020, when Matt Vogel, the puppet captain of the show, reached out to her. “She comes from a different kind of puppetry background than most of other Sesame Street puppet performers,” Vogel says. “We went to college to learn puppetry, or acting schools, etc., but Megan learned the art of ventriloquism by herself.”4．What do we know about Piphus Peace?A．She used to work in television. B．She is now part of Sesame Street. C．She was called Gabrielle at a young age. D．She has been a puppeteer for over 50 years.5．How did Piphus Peace look at the puppets in her childhood?A．She thought they were unreal. B．She considered them to be humorous. C．She found it hard to distinguish them. D．She regarded them as her friends. 6．What does paragraph 3 strongly stress?A．Carrara-Rudolph’s impact on Piphus PeaceB．The striking characteristics of Sesame StreetC．Carrara-Rudolph’s opinion of Piphus PeaceD．The character Abby Cadabby in Sesame Street7．Why is Piphus Peace different from most other performers according to Vogel? A．She is a self-trained ventriloquist. B．She is the most popular performer. C．She has played many different characters. D．She is the only female actress in the show.Reading books can obviously make you a better, smarter entrepreneur. According to a 2018 study of over 160,000 adults in 31 countries, the more books that were present in participants’ childhood homes, the more competent they now were as adults with skills in literacy, mathematics, and technological problem-solving. Researchers note that book-oriented socialization, indicated by home library size, equips youth with lifelong tastes, skill and knowledge.Growing up with home libraries boosts adult skills in literacy, numeracy and technological problem-solving beyond the benefits acquired from parental education or your own educational or occupational attainment. Kids who grow up in a home where reading is valued and modeled are more likely to be good readers. Strangely enough, though, advanced education doesn’t necessarily offset the “lots of books in the home” advantage. Adults who grew up with relatively few books in their homes and later earned a college degree had literacy levels approximately equal to adults who grew up in homes with large libraries but only attended school for nine years.Jessica Stillman [of Inc.] writes, surrounding yourself with more books than you could ever read says good things about your mind. Those books serve as a constant reminder of all the things you don’t know — which helps keep you intellectually hungry and curious. And possibly, this will keep you a little more modest, since research shows the quicker you are to admit you don’t know something, the faster you can then learn it. As Jeff Bezos says, a key sign of intelligence is the willingness to change your mind, something that only happens if you’re willing to admit that your current thinking may not be the best thinking. Modesty, learning and the willingness to change your mind when new data presents itself: That’s another three bonus every entrepreneur can benefit from.8．What does paragraph 1 mainly talk about the research?A．Tough process. B．Inspiring discovery.C．Numerous data. D．Advanced technology.9．Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “offset” in paragraph 2?A．Compete with. B．Differ from. C．Go against. D．Compensate for. 10．Why does the author mention Jessica?A．To keep readers intellectually hungry. B．To stress the significance of modesty.C．To remind readers of their ignorance. D．To evidence the benefits of home library.11．What is the passage mainly about?A．Home library size indicates lifelong skills. B．Home reading equals to a college degree.C．Modesty makes a promising entrepreneur. D．Childhood libraries lead to adulthood success.The Gold Coast family holidays are always great fun whether you are from Australia or from abroad. There are beautiful beaches, adventure parks, nature parks and so much more.There are so many sights to see here. It is a pity to drive in a car and you’ll miss a great part of it. Australia is home to many animals and birds that can only be seen when moving slowly and going into the areas that they live.When you are on a bicycle, you have the strength of being able to stop whenever you want to see an interesting animal or bird that you have never seen before. It is a quieter mode (方式) of transportation as well, so you might even be able to take a picture. When you are on the beach, you can breathe that clean air and view the beauty of the water and sand. It is a totally different experience from either simply sunbathing or passing it in a car.There are many choices of hiring a bicycle to experience the Gold Coast attractions. There are stores that will fit a bike perfectly to your size. These bikes for both adults and children are in many styles and colors to please any taste. If you have ever wanted to try a tandem bike (双人单车), now is your chance, because they have those too.A bicycle hire on Gold Coast is something that everyone should try at least once. This is a wonderful chance for anyone who likes to cycle and it is also a cheap way to travel with your family.12．You’d better not drive in a car on Gold Coast because ________.A．you will break the traffic rulesB．you will cause much noiseC．you can’t enjoy the beautiful sights wellD．you can’t drive into some parks13．The following advantages of hiring bikes are mentioned EXCEPT that ________.

It turns out that just looking at green, growing things can reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and put people into a better mood (情绪).Greenery is good for us. Hospital patients who see tree branches out their window are likelyto recover at a faster rate than patients who see buildings or sky instead. 19 It gives us a great feeling of peace.20 While the sun’s rays can age and harm our skin, they also give is beneficial Vitamin D．To make sure you get enough Vitamin D—but still protect your skin— put on sunscreen right as you head outside. It takes sunscreen about fifteen minutes to start working, and that’s plenty of time for your skin to absorb a day’s worth of Vitamin D．A．Being in nature refreshes us.B．But is fresh air really as good for you as your mother always said?C．Fresh air cleans our lungs.D．So what are you waiting for?E．Another side benefit of getting fresh air is sunlight.F．All across the country, recovery centers have begun building Healing Gardens.G．Just as importantly, we tend to associate air with health care.三、完形填空Music can make us happy, peaceful or sad. As an orchestra (管弦乐队) conductor,music can give.Anderson fell in love with 22 when she was a child. She began playing the piano at seven and started composing at nine.

He was especially beloved for his Little Tramp 36 . He was the first screen artist to write, 37 and perform in his own films; in fact, 38 , Charlie Chaplin even wrote the music for his movies. He was also the first artist to use his work to pass a 39 of equality and justice for all－ 40 for the “little guy”. Charlie Chaplin’s career and life made 41 the first global icon (偶像); his too small hat, his too large shoes and his trademark moustache were instantly 42 by audiences from Chicago to China, from Iowa City to India. And they 43 are today. All of these make Charlie Chaplin the first citizen of our global village.Chaplin, a native of London, was born in 44 on April 16, 1889 to music hall performers. Chaplin only sawhis 45 twice until the age of seven. The man 46 him and his mother about a year after Chaplin was 47 . During Chaplin’s earliest years, his mother was a (n) 48 and performer. Then her voice gave out, her stage career 49 , and she began actively 50 Church of England services.

For example, most of us remember our parents’ telling us to eat more of certain foods or not to do certain things. Is there any truth in these teachings? Some of them agree with present medical thinking, but others have not passed the test of time.Did your mother ever tell you to eat your carrots because they are good for your eyes? Scientists now report that eating carrots can help prevent a serious eye disease called macular degeneration. Eating just one carrot a day can reduce the possibility of getting this disease by 40%. Garlic(蒜) is good for you, too. It can kill the type of virus that causes colds.Unfortunately, not all of Mom’s advice passed the test of medical studies. For exam ple, generations of children have been told not to go swimming within an hour after eating. But research suggests that there is no danger in doing so. Do sweets cause tooth problems? Well, yes and no. Sticky sweets made with grains tend to cause more problems than sweets made with simple sugars.Even though science can tell us that some of our traditional beliefs don’t hold water, there is still a lot of truth in the old wives’ tales. After all, much of this knowledge has been accumulated(积累) from thousands of years of experience in family health care. We should respect this body of knowledge even as we search for clear scientific support to prove it true or false.【1】The author develops the third paragraph mainly .A．by cause and effect B．by order in spaceC．by examples D．by order in time【2】Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?A．Eating garlic is good for our eyes.B．Carrots prevent people from catching colds.C．Swimming after a meal is dangerous.D．Sticky sweets are damaging to our teeth.【3】What is the author’s attitude toward “old wives’ tales” in the text?A．Objective.B．Subjective.C．Dissatisfied.D．Curious.【4】The phrase “hold water” in the last paragraph most probably means “.”A．to be valuable B．to be believableC．to be admirable D．to be suitable2.Sports play an important role in British life. The most popular sport is football. Cricket is also popular in England, but is less important in the other home nations. Rugby union and rugby league are the other major team sports. Tennis is the most important sport for the two weeks of the Wimbledon Championships(温布尔登网球锦标赛)FootballThe modern global game of football developed from traditional British football games in the 19th century. Club football is organized separately in each of the home nations. English football has a league system which combines thousands of clubs. Scotland has a similar but smaller club football structure. The top level league in Wales is the league of Wales. In Northern Ireland the main league is the Irish Football League.Each season the most successful clubs from each of the home nations qualify for(使…具有…的资格) the two Europe wide club competitions organized by UEFA(欧足联), the UEFA Champions League and the UEFA Cup. CricketCricket was invented in England. It is regarded as England’s national summer game and it is probably the second most widely covered sport.There are eighteen professional country clubs, seventeen of them in England and one in Wales. Each summer the country clubs compete in the first class Country Championship, which consist of two leagues of nine teams and in which matches are played over four days.RugbyLike football, rugby union and rugby league both developed from traditional British football games in the 19th century. For much of the 20th century there was great antagonism between rugby leagues, which was a mainly working class game based in the industrial areas of northern England, and rugby union, which is a mainly middle class game in England, and is also popular in the other home nations.TennisTennis is yet another sport which originated in the United Kingdom and the governing body of the sport is the LTA(草地网球协会). However, no British man has won Wimbledon since 1936 and no British woman since 1977. The only British players of either sex to reach the world top 50 in recent years are Greg Rusedski, who learnt his tennis in Canada, and Tim Henman and Andrew Murray ,who did not pass through the LTA system either.【1】What do we know about football?A．The top clubs represent the UK in the two Europe competitions.B．Football is a newly-invented game in EnglandC．The top level league in England is the Irish Football LeagueD．Club football is an organized union in the UK.【2】From the passage we can learn .A．There exist all professional county clubs in England.B．Rugby leagues was enjoyed by middle classC．Tennis is in the charge of LTAD．Greg Rusedski did not pass through the LTA system.【3】The underlined “antagonisim” in the sixth paragraph probably means .A．preference B．friendliness C．similarity D．opposition【4】From what can we read the passage?A．tour guidebook B．book reviewC．news report D．news magzine3.Doris Lessing was born in 1919 in Persia, moving as a child with her family to southern Rhodesia, now Zimbabwe, where she stayed in school only to the age of 14.A year after moving to London, she published her first novel in 1950. The Grass is Singing examines unbridgeable racial conflict(冲突) in colonial Africa through the eyes of a white farmer’s wife and her black servant.Her literary breakthrough came in 1962 with publication of The Golden Notebook, seen by many, though not necessarily Lessing, as a pioneering work of modern feminism(女权运动).

As eh New York Times writes, the symphony, “contains some of the mos t spiritual and peaceful music ever written.”As the cell phone continued to ring, the iPhone’s signature ringtone, Gilbert stopped the entire performance. And yet shockingly the phone continued to ring. “Nothing happened,” Gilbert told the Times, “Nobody was to blame for it. It was unbelievable.”Gilbert said minor cell phone interruptions have become common and rarely interfere with a live performance. The Philharmonic does what it can to remind to audience to turn off their cell phones before the performance begins. But the audience and performers stood by in astonished silence as Gilbert asked the offender(肇事者) to silence the phone, only to hear it continue.Mr Gilbert said audience pointed out two people sitting where the sound was coming from. “They were staring at me firmly,” he said of the couple. Eventually, the man put his hand in his pocket and the ringing stopped.The conductor said he asked the man if he was sure the phone was quieted. “Then he nodded his head,” Mr Gilbert said.People in the hall had been shouting for the sound to stop.

There is no 36for stillness.And when we are 37 to be still because we're in line for something, or waiting at a doctor's appointment, or on a bus or train, we often 38 something to do. Some will play with mobile devices, others will read something. Being still isn't something we're 39 .This comes at a 40 : we lose that time for 41 , for observing and listening. We lose peace.And 42 yet: sometimes too much action is worse than no action at all. You can run around crazily, butget 43 done.Take a moment to think about 44 you spend your days．Are you constantly rushing around? Are you constantly reading and answering 45 , checking on the news and the latest stream of information? Are youalways 46 through your schedule?Is this how you want to spend your 47 ?

They went away, leaving only fifty cents left in my pocket．A petting zoo is made up of a hundred of little baby animals of all kinds．Kids pay their money and stay in the enclosure(围场)pleased with the little animals while their parents shop．A few minutes later，I saw Suzan walking along behind me．I was surprised and asked what was wrong．She said sadly，“Well，Daddy，a ticket for Petting Zoo costs fifty cents．So I gave Robbie my quarter．” Then she said the most beautiful thing I ever heard．She repeated the family motto(座右铭)，which is “Love is Action!”I knew clearly no one loves little animals more than Suzan. She had watched both my wife and me do and say "Love is Action!” for years，and now she had put it into her lifestyle．It had become part of her，because she knew the whole family motto．It’s not only “Love is Action”；it’s “Love is SACRIFICAL(牺牲的)Action!" Love always pays a price．I was moved．We went back to the Petting Zoo．Suzan stood with her hands and chin(下巴)resting on the fence and just watched Robbie go crazy petting and feeding the animals．I had fifty cents burning a hole in my pocket.I put my hand into my pocket and took out the money．Sure，I must do that !【1】What is the best title for this passage?A．A Petting Zoo．B．Try Your Best to Help Others．C．An Attractive Shopping Centre．D．Love Is Sacrificial Action!【2】The underlined part “the most beautiful thing” in Paragraph 5 refers to．A．the Petting Zoo B．the family mottoC．their lifestyle D．the ticket for Petting Zoo【3】Which of the following best describes Suzan?

But not all of those fired workers are sitting at home, reading the job advertisements and waiting for the phone to ring. Thousands of people are returning to school, making public colleges and universities among the few bright places in the disappointing US economy.At a time when many Americans have had their work hours cut or have even lost their jobs, Sherian Huddleston is working overtime. She works at Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU) where she oversees (监督) the enrollment (注册) of new students. The university’s population grew by 800 students this term —an increase of 4 percent over last spring’s enrollment. Huddleston says seeing the enrollment rise in a failing economy is not unexpected. "Whe n people are out of work," she points out, "they will ask 'What else can I do?’ or 'What other careers can I follow?’ They will often return to school if they have not completed a degree before."Older returning students aren’t the only ones increasing the enrollment at MTSU. Huddleston says she’s also seeing an increase in student transfers (转移). "Students who went out of state, or even within the state, to more expensive schools are transferring to public schools to make use of the lower cost of going to school here," she explains.【1】Which is the best title for the passage?A．The Falling American EconomyB．College Enrollment up in a Down EconomyC．Colleges Have More Students Than BeforeD．Going to College Is No Longer Difficult【2】According to the passage, many students return to school ______.A．to make more money B．to read job advertisementsC．to complete a degree D．to ask their schoolmates for help【3】Many students are transferring to public schools mainly because ______.A．public schools provide better educationB．public schools offer better jobs to their studentsC．they don’t want to be influenced by the falling economyD．the cost of public schools is lower and they can save money【4】Which of the following is TRUE about Sherian Huddleston?A．She is working more hours than before because of the worsening economy.B．She is a student of Middle Tennessee State University.C．She disagrees with those who are returning to school.D．She is surprised to see the enrollment go up.3.Memory, they say, is a matter of practice and exercise. If you have the wish and really made a conscious（自觉的）effort, then you can quite easily improve your ability to remember things. But even if you are successful, there are times when your memory seems to play tricks on you.Sometimes you remember things that really did not happen. One morning last week, for example, I got up and found that I had left the front door unlocked all night, yet I clearly remember locking it carefully the night before. Memory “trick” work the other way as well. Once in a while you remember not doing something, and then find out that you did. One day last month, for example, I was sitting in a barber（理发师）shop waiting for my turn to get a haircut, and suddenly I realized that I had got a haircut two days before at the barber shop across the street from my office.We always seem to find something funny and amusing（有趣的）in incidents caused by people’s forgetfulness or absent-mindedness. Stories about absent-minded professors have been told for years, and we never got tired of hearing new ones. Unfortunately, however, absent-mindedness is not always funny. There are times when“trick” of our memory can cause us great trouble.【1】If you want to have a good memory, .A．you should force yourself to remember thingsB．you should make a conscious effort of practice and exerciseC．you should never stop learningD．you should try hard to remember tings【2】Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A．One night the writer forgot to lock the front door.B．One night the writer forgot having locked the front door.C．The writer remembered to lock the door.D．the writer remembered unlocking the front door.【3】In the passage, the writer seems to tell you .A．forgetting things is serious and dangerousB．always forgetting things is understandableC．forgetting things at times is naturalD．the way to protect yourself from memory “tricks”【4】The best title for this passage is .A．How to Get a Good MemoryB．“Tricks” Of MemoryC．Forgetfulness and Absent-mindedness is DangerousD．Get Rid of Absent-mindedness4.Professor Barry Wellman of the University of Toronto in Canada has invented a term to describe the way many North Americans interact(交流，沟通) these days. The term is “networked individualism”. This concept is not easy to understand because the words seem to have opposite meanings. How can we be individuals(个人，个体) and be networked at the same time? You need other people for networks.Here is what Professor Wellman means. Before the invention of the Internet and e-mail, our social networks included live interactions with relatives, neighbors, and friends. Some of the interaction was by phone, but it was still voice to voice, person to person, in real time.A recent research study by the Pew Internet and American Life Project showed that for a lot of people, electronic interaction through the computer has replaced this person-to-person interaction. However, a lot of people interviewed for the Pew study say that’s a good thing. Why?In the past, many people were worried that the Internet isolated (孤立)us and caused us to spend too much time in the imaginary world of the computer. But the Pew study discovered that the opposite is true. The Internet connects us with more real people than expected—helpful people who can give advice on careers, medical problems, raising children, and choosing a school or college. About 60 million Americans told Pew that the Internet plays an important role in helping them make major life decisions.Thanks to the computer, we are able to be alone and together with other people — at the same time!【1】The underlin ed phrase “networked individualism” probably means that by using computers people________.A．stick to their own ways no matter what other people sayB．have the rights and freedom to do things of their own interestC．do things in their own ways and express opinions different from other peopleD．are able to keep to themselves but at the same time reach out to other people【2】According to the Pew study, what do many people rely on to make major life decisions?A．Networks B．Friends C．Phones D．Parents.【3】It can be inferred from the Pew study that _______.A．people have been separated from each other by using computersB．the Internet makes people waste a lot of time and feel very lonelyC．the Internet has become a tool for a new kind of social communicationD．a lot of people regard the person-to-person communication as a good thing【4】Which would be the best title for this passage?A．We’re Alone on the Internet.B．We’re Communicati ng on the Internet.C．We’re Alone Together on the Internet.D．We’re in the Imaginary World of the Internet5.A new plan for getting children to and from school is being started by a local government in Eastern England. This could end the worries of many parents fearful for their children's safety on the roads.Until now the local government have only been prepared to provide bus services for children living more than three miles from their school，or sometimes less if special reasons existed. Now it has been decided that if a group of parents ask for help in organizing transport they will be prepared to go ahead，as long as the arrangement will not lose money and children taking part will be attending their nearest school．The new plan is to be tried out this term for children living at Milton who attend Impington School．The children live just within the three—mile limit and the local government have said in the past that they will not undertake to provide free transport to the school．But now they have agreed to offer a sum of money for a bus service from Milton to Impington and back，a plan which has the support of the school’s headmaster.Between 50 and 60 parents have said they would like their children to take part. Final calculations have still to be carried out，but a government official has said the cost to parents should be less than￡20 a term.They have been able to arrange the service at a low cost because there is already an agreement with the bus company for a bus to take children who live further away to Impington. The same bus would now just make one more journey to pick up the Milton children．The official said they would get in touch with other groups of parents who in the past had asked if transport could be provided for their children, to see if they would like to take part in the new plan．【1】What is the aim of the plan?A．To prevent the students road accidentsB．To relieve the traffic pressureC．To save time for the parents and students．D．To help the parents save money．【2】The new bus service will be paid for byA．the parents B．the local governmentC．the bus company D．the local government and the parents【3】Which of the following is possible if the plan is carried out?A．The bus company will make much more money．B．The children can choose whatever school they like．C．The parents can get rid of their worries．D．The students in Impington School can have free bus rides.【4】This passage is most probably ·A．a personal letter B．an advertisementC．a headmaster’s report D．a newspaper article四、单词拼写根据中文意思和首字母提示写出句中所缺单词的正确形式。

In 2013, Rebecca, then 12, couldn’t stand it anymore. She took her own life near her home in Florida. Soon afterward, Trisha Prabhu read about the story. “I was surprised and heart-broken,” said Trisha, now 15,who is from Naperville, Illinois, “I know that I had to do something to stop this from ever happening again.”Trisha did some research. Studies show that one fourth to half of all teens in the US have been cyberbullied (网络欺凌). Experts say that if you are ever bullied online, you should tell a trusted adult. Tell the cyberbully to stop, and prevent him or her from contacting you again. Print and save messages to share with the police. This is good advice, agrees Trisha. But these methods all take place after the bullying has already happened. Trisha had a different idea. Why not teach cyberbullies to stop before they post these messages?Trisha’s research won awards, including a prize i n the Google Science Fair. Then, Tresah built the ReThink app (应用软件). It is programmed to recognize words or phrases that could be hurtful. When that happens, different warning messages come out. “Don’t say things that you may regret later!” says one message. Others ask, “Are you sure you want to say this?” and “Are these words really yours?”Now Trisha is working on a version(版本) of ReThink for computers. “I am a big dreamer,” she says. “I want to stop cyberbullying before the hurt is done.”【1】What do we know about Rebecca Sedwick?A．She was one of Trisha's best friends.B．She sent hurtful messages to others.C．She ended her life at the age of 12.D．She went to Florida to study further.【2】What is Trisha’s suggestion for stopping cyberbullying?A．Stop talking with the cyberbully.B．Stop the messages before they are sent.C．Turn to your parents or close friendsD．Show the messages to the police at once.【3】What is the third paragraph mainly about?A．People's attitudes to the ReThink app.B．Trisha's research on cyberbullying.C．How the ReThink app works.D．The Google Science Fair.【4】Which of the following can best describe Trisha?A．Honest and careful.B．Helpful and clever.C．Proud and impolite.D．Strange and impatient.3.Do you drink water that's been left sitting out overnight or even for another day? Have you noticed it tastes different?Tap water that has been left to sit out slowly begins to acquire(获得) off taste. Many people think that this is because of microorganisms. But that's not what makes old water taste not fresh. For that we can thank carbon dioxide. After about 12 hours, tap water starts to go flat as carbon dioxide in the air starts to mix with the water in the glass, lowering its PH and giving it an off taste. But it's most likely safe to drink.However, back to those microorganisms. If you use a dirty glass day after day, there is more of a chance of bacteria making themselves known; a risk that increases if you share the glass with another mouth as well. But assuming(假设) you use a fresh glass every few days, you probably won't have a problem unless the glass has been touched by dirty fingers, and especially if those dirty fingers went unwashed after using the bathroom.[As for plastic water bottles that have been left out in the sun or in the car, step away from the bottle, warns Dr. Kellogg Schwab, director of the Johns Hopkins University Water Institute. "A chemical called biphenyl-A, or BPA, along with other things used to make plastic can leach(过滤) into your water if the bottle heats up or sits in the sun," he explains. BPA, as you probably know, has been linked to everything from heart disease to cancer. Schwab also adds that plastic used for commercial bottled water isn't meant to be washed or refilled, so use only one time and recycle. Or don't buy them at all; use refillable water bottles instead.【1】Tap water begin to acquire an off taste because of______ .A．carbon dioxide B．BPAC．the glass D．the microorganism【2】According to Paragraph 2, tap water that's been left sitting out for 12 hours____.A．contains few microorganisms B．is still safe to drinkC．tastes better D．is most likely undrinkable【3】What should we do with plastic water bottles that have been left out in the sun or in the car?A．Use them after they cool down.B．Clean them and use them again.[来C．Throw them away.D．Refill them with fresh water【4】Which of the following is true about BPA?A．It is safe for people to use.B．It is a kind of new material.C．It is the main material to make plastic.D．It can cause great harm to people.4.Getting older is a natural part of life. Changes as you get older are usually gradual. Certain physical changes are common. How fast your body can burn calories slows over time, which means that your body needs less food energy than before. How much and how well you sleep will likely change. Most people start needing reading glasses around forty, and many have some hearing loss later in life. Starting in your fifties, bone aging increase. How you feel as you get older depends on many things, including what health problems run in your family and the choices you make.If your family members have diseases or chronic (慢性的) health problems like high blood pressure, then you may have a greater chance of having those problems yourself. But it doesn’t mean you will definitely have the same problems. Actually, the lifestyle choices you make can help reduce your chances of getting illness that run in your family. And even if you do get a family illness, choosing to be physically active, to eat healthy foods, and to learn how to deal with stress can keep the illness from destroying your ability to enjoy your golden years. What do you need to do to feel your best as you age? One of the most important things you can do for your health at any age is to be physically active. Physical activity keeps your body strong, and it helps with how you feel. People who stay active are less likely to get depressed.Your mental and emotional health is also important. Protect or improve your emotional health by staying in touch with friends, family, and the community. People who feel connected to others are more likely to feel happy than those who do not.【1】When people get older, they will __________.A．need some help B．look back to their past oftenC．consume more calories D．go through some physical problems.【2】Which of the following can NOT mostly affect old people’s health?A．Their income.B．Their family illness.C．Their eating habits.D．Their relationship with others【3】The underlined phrase “golden years” in paragraph 3 refers to a person’s ___.A．future B．later lifeC．holidays D．leisure time【4】How can old people avoid loneliness according to the text?A．To make new friends.B．To have enough social connections.C．To be physically active.D．To live with their family members.二、其他Food safety is a problem in all places around the world and people in different areas of the world prepare foods in different ways. The WHO released five simple rules for preparing food in a safe way. 【1】Key 1: Keep clean.The first key tells about the importance of washing. People should wash their hands often—before touching food, while they are preparing food, and any time after they go to the toilet. People should wash all surfaces and equipment used for preparing food.【2】Key 2:【3】People should separate raw, or uncooked food from foods that are already cooked and foods that will not be cooked. People should store raw meat, chicken, and fish in containers, or in separate areas. Raw foods should not touch prepared foods.Key 3: Cook completely.People should cook eggs and meat, like birds, seafood, and animals, especially carefully. These foods may carry more micro-organisms than other foods. Food like soup must be boiled for at least a minute to make it be cooked completely. It is also important that people re-heat cooked food completely.Key 4: Keep food at safe temperatures.When people are finished with eating, they should keep the left food in a refrigerator below 5℃ and shouldn’t store it for too long. At room temperature, about 20℃, the amount of micro-organisms can increase very quickly. 【4】 They cannot grow as quickly in a very hot or very cold environment.Key 5: Use safe water and raw materials.【5】 Damaged or old food may develop harmful chemicals as it gets older.A．Eat cooked food immediately, while it is still hot.B．They call these rules the “Five Keys to Safer Food.”C．Separate raw and cooked.D．People should use safe water and choose fresh foods.E.Keeping everything clean helps people to avoid micro-organisms.F.People should also protect cooking areas and food from insects and animals.G.But temperatures above 60℃ or below 5℃ control the growth of micro-organisms.三、完形填空Last year I introduced my new policy on absences to my classes: None would be ______ except for illness or personal emergency.

There I was, walking home at one inthe morning after a tiring practice at the theatre. With opening night only a week ago, I was still learning my lines.I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me. As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away from any possible robbers. Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets.About a block from my apartment, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk.Suddenly I wasn’t cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where I’d heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck (垃圾车) pull up to the sidewalk next to me.When a voice called from the inside, “Alisa Camacho?” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eye. “Is this what you’re looking for?” he asked, holding up a small square shape.It was nearly 3 A.M. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn’t get much sleep that night, but I had g otten my wallet back. I also had gotten back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldn’t be a bad place as long as people were willing to help each other.【1】How did the writer feel when she was walking home after work?A．Cold and sick B．Disappointed and helplessC．Satisfied and cheerful D．Fortunate and helpful【2】On her way home the writer _______.A．was robbed of her wallet by an armed manB．was stopped by a garbage truck driverC．lost her wallet unknowinglyD．found some homeless people following her【3】In the fifth paragraph, why did the writer say she was dreaming?A．Someone offered to take her back home.B．A red-haired man came to see her.C．Her wallet was found in a garbage truck.D．She heard someone call her name.【4】From the text, we can infer that the writer _________.A．would stay on in San FranciscoB．would stop working at nightC．would make friends with cleanersD．would give up her job at the bank2.Some of Man's closest relatives in the animal kingdom are under serious threat because of human activity, according to a recently published report.Almost one in three of all apes and monkeys are now considered to be in danger of dying out and disappearing from our planet, if action is not taken soon.The report, which was produced for the World Conservation Union (WCU), shows that 114 of the world's 394 kinds could be lost forever, and the main reason they are threatened is the continuing loss of forests where most of these animals live. In addition, illegal wildlife trade, climate change and commercial（商业的）hunting for meat are also endangering them.What's more, the problem is getting worse. The number of species on the organization’s Red List has increase d by 3 to 25 since 2005.Russell Mittermeier, the main researcher of the WCU report, said, "You could fit(安置) all the surviving members of these 25 species in a single football stadium. So the problem is obviously urgent."The scientists, who drew up the Red List, believe that the situation is now so bad that if action is not taken immediately, it will result in primate(灵长目动物) species dying out - something which has not happened in over a century.The loss of habitat caused by the clearing of forests for wood, farmland and fuel continues to be the main reasonfor the decreasing number of primates, according to the report, and the problem was most severe in Asia.The loss of forest trees is also responsible for 20 percent of all greenhouse gases - more than all the cars, trucks, trains and airplanes in the world combined.【1】What is the main subject of the report discussed in the text?A．Climate change.B．Loss of animal habitat.C．Animal protection.D．Endangered animals【2】How many animals were on the Red List in 2005?A．22B．19C．25.D．28.【3】The spokesman refers to 'a football stadium' in paragraph 5 to stress that ______.A．the animals enjoy playing sportsB．these animals should be placed there for protectionC．there are not many of these animals leftD．the report was announced there【4】What is the main cause of the greenhouse gas problem according to the text?A．Airplanes.B．Loss of trees.C．Factory pollution.D．Road vehicles.3.New York City schoolchildren can’t use cellphones at school because of Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg’s ban on cellphones in schools. Many parents are opposed to Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg’s ban on cellphones in schools by e-mail messages.There was a 13-year-old student who was shot with a gun after school, unable to call his mother for help. There was a high school student robbed three times last year, twice in her school building. There was a girl who got a piece of glass placed in her eye during school and was saved from a possible cornea transplant (角膜移植) only because, having disobeyed the cellphone ban, she was able to call her mother and get an operation on time.The ban has been on for years, but it set off a widespread parental outcry only in April, after some headmasters sent home letters reminding parents that cellphones are not allowed to be brought into school.Mr Bloomberg has defended the ban, saying that cellphones are bad and often used to cheat or call in friends for fights. If something is important, he says, parents can call schools directly.On the other hand, many of the e-mail messages from parents described the ban as “cruel and heartless”, “absurdly(荒谬地) wrong-headed”, “anti-parent”, “ridiculous”.“We respect the fears that parents have,” David Cantor, a spokesman for Schools Minister Joel I. Klein said, “but after all the fact is that having phones in schools always leads to more problems.”【1】A 13-year-old student was shot with a gun after school, unable to call his mother for help, because ____. A．his mother had no cellphoneB．his mother wasn’t at homeC．he didn’t take a cellphone with himD．he was too frightened to call【2】From the fifth paragraph we can see many parents _________ the ban.A．agreed to B．thought highly ofC．supported D．were opposed to【3】According to what the spokesman said, the school might _______.A．call off the banB．continue the banC．thank the parentsD．allow some students to use cellphones at school4.“Soon, you’re going to have to move out!” cried my neighbor upon seeing the largest tomato plant known to mankind, or at least known in my neighborhood.One tiny 9-inch plant, bought for $1.25 in the spring, has already taken over much of my rose bed, covering much of other plants, and is well on its way to the front door.Roses require a good deal of care, and if it weren’t for the pleasure they give, it wouldn’t be worth the work. As it is, I have a garden full of sweet-smelling roses for most of the year. Bushes must be pruned(剪枝) in early spring, leaving ugly woody branches until the new growth appears a few weeks later. It was the space available in the garden that led me into planting just one little tomato plant. A big mistake.Soil conditions made just perfect for roses turn out to be even more perfect for tomatoes. The daily watering coupled with full sun and regular fertilizing (施肥) have turned the little plant into a tall bush. The cage I placed around it as the plant grew has long disappeared under the thick leaves.Now the task I face in harvesting the fruit is twofold; First, I have to find the red ones among the leaves, which means I almost have to stand on my head, and once found I have to reach down and under, pick the tomatoes and withdraw(缩回) my full fist without dropping the prize so dearly won. I found two full-blown white roses completely hidden as I picked tomatoes in June. But they were weak and the leaves already yellow for lack of light.Here I am faced with a painful small decision: To tear up a wonderful and productive tomato plant that offers up between ten and twenty ripe sweet tomatoes each day or say goodbye to several expensive and treasured roses. Like Scarlett in Gone With the Wind, I’ll think about that tomorrow.【1】What are the requirements for the healthy growth of rose?A．Frequent pruning and fertilizing.B．A lot of care and the right soil.C．Tomato plants grown alongside.D．Cages placed around the roots.【2】The writer planted the tomato because _________.A．there was room for it in the gardenB．the soil was just right for itC．it cost only $1.25D．the roses’ branches needed to be covered【3】This year the writer’s roses were __________.A．removed from the rose bedB．largely hidden under the tomato plantC．mostly damaged by too much sunlightD．picked along with the tomatoes【4】By saying “the prize so dearly won” in paragraph 5, the writer wants to ________.A．express her liking for the rosesB．show the hardship of growing the rosesC．show the difficulty in picking the tomatoesD．express her care for the tomatoes【5】In the situation described in the text, one good thing is that ________.A．the writer has a daily harvest of tomatoesB．the roses cost the writer little moneyC．someone will help the writer make the decisionD．the writer can now enjoy both the roses and tomatoes5.As any homemaker who has tried to keep order at the dinner table knows, there is far more to a family meal than food. Sociologist Michael Lewis has been studying 50 families to find out just how much more.Lewis and his co-workers carried out their study by videotaping(录像) the families while they ate ordinary meals in their own homes. They found that parents with small families talk actively with each other and their children. But as the number of children gets larger, conversation gives way to the parents’ efforts to control the loud noise they make. That can have an important effect on the children. “In gene ral, the more question-asking the parents do, the higher the children’s IQ scores,” Lewis says. “And the more children there are, the less question-asking there is. ”The study also provides an explanation for why middle children often seem to have a harder time in life than their siblings(兄弟姐妹). Lewis found that in families with three or four children, dinner conversation is likely to center on the oldest child, who has the most to talk about, and the youngest, who needs the most attention. “Middle childre n are invisible,” says Lewis. “When you see someone get up from the table and walk around during dinner, chances are it’s the middle child.” There is, however, one thing that stops all conversation and prevents anyone from having attention: “When the TV is on,” Lewis says, “dinner is a non-event.”【1】The writer’s purpose in writing the text is to ______.A．report on the findings of a studyB．teach parents ways to keep order at the dinner tableC．show the relationship between parents and childrenD．give information about family problems【2】Parents with large families ask fewer questions at dinner because ______.A．they are busy serving food to their childrenB．they have to pay more attention to younger childrenC．they are busy keeping order at the dinner tableD．they are tired out having prepared food for the whole family【3】By saying “Middle children are invisible” in paragraph 3, Lewis means that middle children ______. A．have to help their parents to serve dinnerB．find it hard to keep up with other childrenC．are often kept away from the dinner tableD．get the least attention from the family【4】Which of the following statements would the writer agree to?A．Parents should talk to each of their children frequently.B．It is a good idea to have the TV on during dinner.C．It is important to have the right food for children.D．Elder children should help the younger ones at dinner.四、其他1.短文填词（满分5分，每小题0.5分）【1】When I found out that my train would be three hours late, I changed my idea and would take a bus _____(代替).【2】I was about to rush out of the train station ______ a【3】well-dressed old man took me ____ the arm, "Young【4】lady," said the gentleman, "Shouldn't you f____ out【5】the bus schedule before you rush out to c (赶上)the【6】bus ".
