第一节(共10小题；每小题2.5分，满分25分)【原创】
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。

A
In some primary schools, students are often required to arrive in school one day before the start of a new semester in order to obtain new textbooks and new timetables, get to know their new teachers, and clean the classrooms.
The classrooms are dustier than usual after being left unused for nearly one month during the winter vacation, so cleaning the classrooms is necessary to protect the health of the students. And usually, taking part in the cleaning work is regarded as a good opportunity for the children to enhance their sense of responsibility as well as do their meeting and greeting outside lesson time after not seeing each other for nearly a month.
No wonder, the teachers' "invitation" was met with a cold shoulder by most parents. But still some parents felt compelled to do the job or hire someone to do it, as they simply do not want to let the teachers feel embarrassed if no one responded to the call.
In fact, the parents have every reason to turn down the teachers' request. The yes-man relations between teachers and parents are not unique to primary schools, which are more worrying than the students' absence from the traditional cleaning, as this puts the schools and parents on unequal footings, and family education, which is more important than school education to some extent, automatically gives its way to school education.
Also, an alarming phenomenon behind the scenes is the almost universal inability of adolescents to take care of themselves independently.
21. What does the underlined word “compelled” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. volunteered
B. hesitated
C. forced
D. compromised
22. Why are some parents unwilling to refuse the teachers’ request?
A.They need a good relationship with teachers.
B.They don’t want to make the teachers angry.
C.The students’ absence from the cleaning is embarrassing.
D.The teachers need the assistance of the parents indeed.
23. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passag e?
A.To introduce the first day of a new term.
B.To show various ways of cleaning the classroom.
C.To explain the reason of the parents’ non-participation.
D.To call the publics’ attention to the issue.
B
Used clothes are rather difficult to deal with. They are made from chemicals, cotton, or wool, which consume many resources in the process of manufacturing and, if burned, they pollute the air and increase the carbon pressure upon the environment. Therefore, it is a good thing for used clothes to be recycled in factories instead
of being disposed of in garbage cans to be incinerated or transported to landfill sites. In that sense, the companies that put the donation boxes in communities have done something good and beneficial.
However, if they mean to recycle used clothes they need to tell people that and label their collection boxes as "recycle boxes" instead of misleading people by calling them "donation boxes". People expect their "donated" clothes to go to the poor, not factories.
People need to be more realistic as well. Donating clothes may not bring much help to the poor. Especially, as it takes a lot of human labor to collect the used clothes, sort them, clean and disinfect them and deliver them to less-developed areas. Every step costs money and sometimes the total cost might even be higher than buying new clothes in large quantities. Sometimes the poor might not need used clothing, but they cannot trade the clothes for what they do need.
It might be a sad fact, but the most effective and efficient way of helping poor people is donating money and letting them get what they need themselves. So when people want to send a helping hand, they need to donate money, instead of simply donating their used, unwanted clothes.
24. What is the first paragraph mainly about?
A.The donation boxes should be put more in communities.
B.Unwanted clothes can be recycled in donation boxes.
C.Putting donation boxes in communities is right for companies.
ed clothes should be recycled in factories.
25. Why cannot the boxes in communities be called “donation boxes”?
A.The poor don’t need clothing donations any longer.
B.Recycling these used clothes needs much more money.
C.Donation boxes are intended for collecting unwanted clothes.
D.The clothes in the boxes are to be recycled at last.
26. What d oes the author really mean by mentioning “a sad fact”?
A.The poor cannot get help from it.
B.The factories cannot benefit from it.
C.It’s not convenient for the residents.
D.It gets the communities into trouble sometimes.
27. What’s the author’s attitude towards “donation boxes in communities”?
A. Supportive
B. Disapproving
C. Indifferent
D. Doubtful
C
Five days a week, Victor Ibarra and his friend Sandy Norse ride bicycles through North Brooklyn, collecting food waste from restaurants, coffee shops, and other small businesses and packing it into plastic tubs on a trailer(拖车)pulled by his bike. And every Sunday afternoon, neighborhood residents chopped their food waste firstly, waiting for Victor Ibarra and Sandy Norse’s arrival to collect the staff.These household waste contains more whole apples, whole tomatoes, and whole bunches of cabbages than commercial waste does, while cat litter, bones, and disposable cups, bowls and plates are not accepted.
In 2016, they even founded BK ROT, a nonprofit collecting andcomposting operation to continue their careers. At BK ROT, food waste is mixed with wood chips and sawdust(锯末), then moved, over a period of weeks, through a series of wooden bins the size of washing machines. By the time it reaches the final bin, it's black and bug-covered and unrecognizable as former food. The resulting mass, the compost, is sold in local stores or directly to individuals. "Somebody came from Staten Island yesterday and took a lot,” Norse said, “but most of it goes to nearby urban farms and community gardens.”
Some farmers and many citizens follow their examples, beginning to turn to running their farms and gardens without using any chemicals. To their delight, they feel that this makes the soil in their fields richer in minerals and so more fertile. BK Rot is becoming popular with a goal --- to grow good food and avoid damaging the environmen t or people’s health.
28. How is the compost made from?
A.First combined with sawdust, moved and then rots.
B.First moved, processed and then sold.
C.First collected, packed and then sent to farms.
D.First chopped, moved and then delivered to individuals.
29. What can we learn about the compost?
posting operation can only be conducted by professionals.
B.Not all the household food waste can be processed into the compost.
C.The compost maybe only come from the household waste.
D.The resulting mess will be packed into a wooden bin till it rots.
30. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A.Collecting Food Waste Attracts More People
B.Victor Ibarra and Sandy Norse Go Green
C.Food Waste Can Be Turned into Treasure
D.Farmers Will Be Blessed with the Compost

ZHAO ZHIZHONG, a professor of geography at Hainan Normal University, recently proposed to make the law and forbid pupils below the age of 16 to use smartphones. Beijing Youth Daily comments:
With the prosperity of the economy, many families choose to buy a smartphone for their children at school to search for materials and assist in studying. _____31_____.
In and out of class, the pupils have smartphones in their hands. _____32_____. While enjoying their lunch, they hold them in their hands. Even on the bed before sleeping, they hold one in their hands.
It seems the heavy addiction to smartphones is affecting ever more pupils at young ages. _____33_____.The addiction to smartphones, which is popular among pupils, is a problem that affects them in many aspects. It distracts them from their academic studies and prevents them from talking with each other. That's why quite many people agree to limit the use of smartphones among pupils. That's also why Zhao's proposal
got quite a wide welcome among the public.
_____34_____. This is because smartphones, if used well, do play a key role in helping the pupils get wider access to the outside world and broaden their horizon. Besides, the school might not have the power to forbid pupils from using their own properties that do not pose harm to others.
There are certain countries that limit pupils from using smartphones in class but allow them to use them after it. _____35_____. But that can offer some food for thought.
A.While walking, they hold them in their hands.
B.So a flexible ban can be considered to avoid the trouble.
C.They, just like their parents, have become enslaved by smartphones.
D.However, it remains doubtful whether a simple ban is proper.
E.Perhaps a child model for smartphones can also be introduced.
F.The actual effect remains to be seen.
G.In fact, when children get their smartphones, the situation is different.

Students who have used electronic cigarettes when they start ninth grade are more likely to start smoking traditional cigarettes and other combustible(可燃的) tobacco products within the next year, according to a new study funded by the National Institutes of Health.
The study surveyed students from 10 public high schools in Los Angeles with diverse backgrounds. The analysis focused on 2,530 students who initially reported never using combustible tobacco and underwent follow-up assessments after six and 12 months. After comparing tobacco use starters among 222 students who had used e-cigarettes, but not combustible tobacco products, and 2,308 who had neither used e-cigarettes or combustible tobacco products,the researchers got the data that 30.7 percent of those who had used e-cigarettes started using combustible tobacco products, such as cigarettes, andcigars, compared to only 8.1 percent of those who had never used e-cigarettes. Over the following six months leading into the start of 10th grade, 25.2 percent of e-cigarette users had used combustible tobacco products, compared to just 9.3 percent of nonusers.
NIDA Director Nora D. Volkow, M.D. said, “While teen tobacco use has fallen in recent years, this study confirms that we should continue to watch smoking patterns. Parents should recognize that although e-cigarettes might not have the same carcinogenic (致癌的) effects of regular cigarettes, they do carry a risk of addition.”
“Recreational e-cigarette use is becoming increasingly popular among teens who have never smoked tobacco,” said Adam M. Leventhal, Ph.D., the first author on the
study. “While we cannot conclude that e-cigarette use directly leads to smoking, this research raises concerns that recent increases in youth e-cigarette use could eventually cause the increasing number of teens to get smoking-related illnesses."

While taking a walk on campus, I came across Nana, my lovely English teacher.
I was brave enough to approach her having a chat. She asked me how I have been learning English recently. I told her I have been struggling with it, particularly grammar and structure. When I asked if she could give me any help when she is available, unexpectedly, she promised she was willing to help me with everything and that I'm always welcome. I was privileged and impressed. What a pretty and warm-hearted lady!
I just love her, determined to make greater progress in my weaknesses. (100 words)
