meals．There's a catch，however．You have to stay in a chicken cage with a stranger for a whole week．There are no books or television or radio for amusement．You can't leave until the week is up．And a camera will be recording your every move．Two people actually took the job．The idea came from Rob Thompson，a video artist．He wanted to make a film about the way animals are treated．His goal was to raise people's awareness of the living conditions of animals that are raised for food．He decided to pay $5，000 out of his own savings to two people who were willing to live like chickens for a week．To Rob's surprise，quite a few people answered his advertisement．He had interviewed and selected Eric，a 24﹣year﹣old restaurant worker，and Para，a 24﹣year﹣old chemist．The plan was for them to spend seven

a hard wooden floor．They couldn't stand up without hanging their heads．They ate vegetables and drank water from a garden hosepipe．Their only privacy was a toilet surrounded by a curtain．There were no

was over，and Para and Eric appeared from their cage．They had survived the week，and they each had a $2，500 check in their hands．When RobThompson opened the cage，Eric came out，changed into clean clothes，and ate a chocolate bar right away．"It's great to be able to stand up，"he said．Para just changed her clothes and left．After a week of visitors and reporters watching her，she didn't want to

they have maintained a Body Mass Index （BMI）of at least 18.5for three months before a fashion show．That means a woman who is 68inches tall can weigh no less than 119pounds．"This law is another step in the war against eating disorders，"said physician Adatto．"Underweight models，"he explained，"can no longer serve as role models for innocent young people who copy their false image of being skinny．"But some critics in this country say it is misguided，focusing on weight instead of health．They also say the Israeli ban is bound to fail because of the strong power of the fashion industry．"I think it's an approach that isn't going to work．"said eating disorder expert Susan Ice，who worked with an organization which creates a healthy working environment for models．But Adatto told the reporter that he began to concern the issue after meeting an ambitious model who looked like she needed to be hospitalized．He said．"I realized that only legislation（立法）can change the situation．There was no time to waste；so many girls were dieting to death．"However，the efforts to regulate models'weight in Spain and Italy have not resulted in significant changes in part because of difficulties in determining reliable methods of measuring weight and health．Still，folks including Ice say there's no denying that images from Hollywood and the fashion industry can be difficult for young women to deal with．"Certainly I don't believe the modeling industry has caused the rise in eating disorders，but it makes it harder，"she says．"It's a difficult recovery environment，worshiping thinness as the beauty ideal．"64．One benefit the new Israeli law may bring is．A．to change the working conditions of modelsB．to lower the chance of skinny models'deathC．to provide guidance for women worshiping thinnessD．to prevent models from suffering from eating disorders65．In the opinion of the critics，the law won't succeed because．A．it misleads young women to form a bad eating habit．B．it doesn't provide a proper approach that can work well．C．it doesn't create a healthy working environment for models．D．the fashion industry is much too influential．66．What caused Adatto to think that a law was needed to change the situation？A．Meeting an ambitious but too skinny model．B．Establishing his fashion model agent．C．Being interviewed by a reporter．D．Seeing a model die from eating disorders．67．（8分）In face of global warming，much effort has been focused on reducing greenhouse gas emissions through a variety of strategies．But while much of the research and innovation has concentrated on finding less﹣polluting energy alternatives，it may be decades before clean technologies like wind and solar meet a significant portion of our energy needs．In the meantime，the amount of CO2in the air is rapidly approaching the limits proposed by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change （IPCC）．"As long as we're consuming fossil fuels，we're putting out CO2，"says Klaus Lackner，a geophysicist at Columbia University，"We cannot let the CO2 in the atmosphere rise indefinitely．"That sense of urgency has increased interest in capturing and storing CO2，which the IPCC says could provide the more than 50% reduction in emissions needed to reduce global warming．"We see the potential for capture and storage to play an integral （基本的）role in reducing emissions，"says Kim Corley，Shell's senior advisor of CO2 and environmental affairs．That forward thinking strategy is gaining support．The U．S．Department of Energy recently proposed putting 1billionintoanew2.4billion coal ﹣burning energy plant．The plant's carbon﹣capture technologies would serve as a pilot project for other new coal﹣burning plants．But what do you do with the gas once you've captured it？One option is to put it to new uses．Dakota Gasification of North Dakota captures CO2 at a plant that converts （转换）coal into synthetic（合成的）natural gas．It then ships the gas 200miles by pipeline to Canada，where it is pumped underground in oil recovery operations．In the Netherlands，Shell delivers CO2 to farmers who pipe it into their greenhouses，increasing their production of fruits and vegetables．However，scientists say that the scale of CO2 emissions will require vast amounts of long﹣term storage．Some propose storing the CO2 in coal mines or liquid storage in the ocean，Shell favors storing CO2 in deep geological structures such as saline （盐的）formations and exhausted oil and gas fields that exist throughout the world．67．What does the author intend to tell readers？A．How to find more oil and natural gases．B．How to reduce greenhouse gas emissions．C．How to deal with the greenhouse gas creatively．D．How to make good use of solar and wind energy．68．According to the passage，the following statements are true EXCEPT that．A．the idea of capturing and storing CO2 is supported by the American government B．it is widely accepted that the CO2 captured should be stored in deep geological structuresC．capturing and storing CO2 is intended to handle the problem with global warming D．long﹣term storage of CO2 is no easy job because of the scale of CO2emissions 69．By using CO2，Dutch farmers have been able to．A．increase their production of fruits and vegetables B．convert coal into synthetic natural gasC．pump it underground in oil recovery operations D．make exhausted oil and gas fields productive70．How would you understand the underlined part in the third paragraph？A．It means a project training new pilots who will serve the new strategy．B．It refers to the coal﹣burning energy plant that U．S government sponsors．C．It implies the carbon﹣capture technologies will be popular once successful．D．It shows the new idea of reduction of CO2emissions needs a large sum of investment．第四部分：任务型阅读（满分10分）请认真阅读下列短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词．注意：请将答案写在答题卡上相应题号的横线上．每个空格只填一个单词．71．（10分）Learning is a daily adventure that one carries throughout life，and we should keep learning something new every day．To become a lifelong learner，first of all you should learn where your talents and interests lie．You can try many different things so that you'll find you're not only good at a few things．Be careful of past memories that tell you to stay away from certain things．This can soon prevent you seizing chances to try many new things．Anyway，be careful not to let past experiences like these cut off opportunities for you now．To make learning fun，you need to see learning as an exploration，not a chore （杂事）．Don't just force yourself to learn things because they're important or necessary．Instead，learn things you need to learn and you love to learn．Follow your heart，as well as your sense of duty．Even when you're learning the things you have to，seek to go beyond what you're being asked to learn．Look at the history，case studies，different applications，etc．，to make your learning experience much more colorful．Doing reading as much as you can is also helpful．So make friends with local new and used book sellers．Through reading you'll never stop learning．Wise people read lots of books all the time；it's as simple as that．And reading will help you know the discoveries and mistakes of others so that you don't have to learn things the hard way．So remember that books，newspapers，and magazines are all reading，and as are websites，reviews and other online sources of information．Asking the right questions can be more important than having the answers．So be sure to listen closely and understand the response．Sometimes a response is difficult to understand．Feel free to take notes，ask more questions and break down the response into smaller components （成分）to make sense of it．You can keep a diary or notebook to record what you learn and what questions you still have．Questions can teach as much as，or more than，answers．To be a lifelong learner，often evaluate （评估）and apply what you learn．Does it make sense？Is it true？Try to answer these questions and make good evaluation about what you're learning．In addition，applying what you learn is the best way to test it and it'll help you learn it more completely and keep it longer．How to become a lifelong learner．ParagraphoutlinesSupporting detailsKnow what you are good at and（71）By trying many different things，you can be aware of your possible （72）to do many things well．You should overcome your past memories and don't（73）any chance to tryin．something new．View learningas an exploration．Don't force yourself to learn something．Instead，be eager to learn what（74）to you．When learning the things you have to，also try to make it（75）．Do more reading．Try your best to read various books because reading can help you avoid something（76）．You can read books，newspapers，magazines as well as different（77）information．Ask right questions．When you have（78）understanding the response，take notes and ask more questions to help yourself．You can（79）your learning and problems in a diary/notebook．Evaluate and apply what is learned．Evaluate your present learning material by asking questions about it．Put what you learn into（80）in daily life so that you canenrich it and keep it longer．第七部分：书面表达（满分25分）81．（25分）我们的环境质量已经成为一个重要问题，造成这个问题的原因有很多，我们也采取了一些措施去解决这个问题，根据下列提示完成作文．注意：1、短文必须包括所有要点；2、词数150左右；3、短文开头已写好，不计入总词数．Today the quality of our natural environment has become an

projects…"中的would可知此题使用了虚拟语气，故从句应该借助should来表示虚拟．拓展：一般现在时情况下。

AWhile beach vacations may be a great way to take your mind off work, lakes surrounded by mountains make for an even grander experience. If you are looking for some peace on your vacation, we have some recommendations for you in the Caucasus(高加索).Lake SevanLake Sevan is situated in the central part of Armenia, in the Gegharkunik province. It is the largest lake in Armenia, located 6,200ft above sea level. Along the lake shore, there are various accommodations such as resorts and hotels with plenty of activities to partake in such as windsurfing, swimming and sunbathing. While there, do not forget to visit one of the famous cultural monuments, the Sevanavank Monastery, and it offers a great view of the lake as well.Lake ParavaniLake Paravani, located at 6,801ft above sea level, is in the south of Georgia, near the Javakheti plateau. At this level, altitude sickness can occur and it is a good idea to be prepared to adapt to it properly, or bring medication for altitude sickness. Being a volcanic lake makes for a more interesting experience. The lake is best known for fishing. Do not come home during the winter months when the lake freezes.Lake CildirLake Cildir is located in the Ardahan province, East Turkey, near the borders of Georgia and Armenia. It is the second largest freshwater lake of Eastern Turkey, and many tourists are notaware of this beautiful attraction. Lake Cildir is surrounded by mountains of the Caucasus. The lake freezes during late November. If the winter is not extremely cold, you can try some lake activities like ice skating and ice fishing.Lake VanLake Van is the must visit of all lakes in this list. The largest lake in Turkey, Lake Van is located on the eastern shore of Turkey and is also the most accessible lake here. It’s situated at 5, 380ft above sea level, and unique to lakes around the world, the water is high in salt content. 1．If you want to visit some historic sites during your travel by a lake, you can go to_______ .A. Lake CildirB. Lake ParvaniC. Lake SevanD. Lake Van2．What is special about Lake Van?A. Its water is high in salt.B. It is a volcanic lake.C. It is globally the largest lake.D. It is surrounded by mountains. 3．What challenge are travelers most likely to face while visiting Lake Paravani?A. Lack of medicine.B. V olcano eruptions.C. Altitude sickness.D. Low temperature all the year. 4．Which destinations would be attractive to a fishing lover?A. Lake Sevan and Lake Pa ravani.B. Lake Pravani and Lake Cildir.C. Lake Cildir and Lake Van.D. Lake Sevan and Lake Van.BIt is commonly believed that all over the world, boys and girls attend a mixed school, where they study together. But boys’schools are the perfect place to teach young men to express their emotions and involve them in activities such as art, dance and music.Always boys at single-sex schools were said to be more likely to get involved in cultural and artistic activities that helped develop their emotional expressiveness, rather than feeling they had to correspond to(和……相符) the ＂boy code＂of hiding their emotions to be a ＂real man＂.Surprisingly, the findings of the study go against received wisdom that boys do better when taught alongside girls.George Carl, headmaster of Eton, warned that boys were being failed by the British education system because it had become too focused on girls. He criticized teachers for failing to recognize that boys are actually more emotional than girls.The research argued that boys often perform badly in mixed schools because they become discouraged when girls do better earlier in speaking and reading skills.But in single-sex schools teach ers can adjust lessons to boys’learning style, letting them move around the classroom and getting them to compete in teams to prevent boredom, wrote thestudy’s author, Abigail James, of the University of Virginia.Teachers could encourage boys to enjoy reading and writing with ＂boy-focused＂approaches such as themes and characters that appeal to them. Because boys generally have more acute vision, learn best through touch, and are physically more active, they need to be given ＂hands-on＂lessons where they are allowed to walk around. ＂Boys in mixed schools view classical music as feminine(女性的) and prefer the modern genre (类型) in which violence and sexism are major themes,＂James wrote.Single-sex education also made it less likely that boys would feel that they had to be ＂masterful and in charge＂in relationships. ＂In mixed schools, boys feel forced to act like men before they understand themselves well enough to know what that means,＂the study reported. 5．The writer argues that a single-sex school would __________.A. encourage boys to express their emotions more freelyB. help boys to be more competitive in schoolsC. force boys to be their emotions to be ＂real men＂D. naturally strengthen boys’traditional image of a man6．Traditionally, in a mixed school boys __________.A. behave more responsiblyB. perform relatively betterC. grow up more healthilyD. receive a better education7．In Abigail James’opinion, one of the advantages of single-sex schools is ______.A. boys can choose to learn whatever they are interested inB. boys can focus on their lessons without being distractedC. teaching can be adjusted to suiting the characteristics of boysD. teaching can be designed to promote boys’team spirit8．The underlined word ＂acute＂in Paragraph 7 is closest in meaning to ______ .A. lovelyB. seriousC. sharpD. dullC＂BANG!＂the door caused a reverberation (回声). It was just standing there, with father standing on one side, and me on the other side.We were both in great anger. ＂Never set foot in this house again!＂stormed father. With tears welling up in my eyes, I rushed out of the flat and ran along the street.The street lights were shining, causing rather sad feelings. I wandered aimlessly.A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me. I felt as if I saw my childhood from another space: happy and carefree.But now … I don’t know whether it is because I have grown up or because dad is getting old. We differ in our ways of thinking. We are just like two people coming from two different worlds. It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened.I wandered the streets, without a destination in mind. My heart was frozen on this hot summer night. As I walked on, there were fewer and fewer people on the streets, until I had only the street lights to keep me company. When I finally reached the high-rise apartment block in which I lived, I saw that the light was still on.I thought to myself: ＂Is father waiting for me, or is he still angry with me？＂In fact, it was nothing. Perhaps, dad was throwing away some of his old stamps. Perhaps he thought they were useless. I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps.All the lights were off except father’s.Dad was always like this. Maybe he didn’t know how to express himself. After shouting at me, he never showed any mercy or any moments of regret.This was how he always was. He has been a leader for so long that telling everyone else what to do has become his second nature.The light was still on. ＂Am I wrong＂I whispered, maybe… With the key in my hand, I was as nervous as I had ever been. At last, I decided to open the door. As soon as I opened the door, tears ran down my cheeks. I suddenly realized that the iron door that I had imagined between us did not exist at all. Love—it’s second to none.9．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage ?A. The author fully understood why he and his father had different thinking.B. The author and his father lacked communication.C. The author’s father didn’t approve of his stamp collecting.D. The author’s father opened the door for him when he came back.10．According to the author, why did his father often shout at him ?A. Perhaps the father was getting older and older.B. Perhaps the father had been used to doing that.C. Perhaps the son had already grown up.D. Perhaps they never agreed with each other.11．What wa s the author’s attitude towards his father at the end of the story?A. He was frustrated with his father.B. He loved his father.C. He was afraid of his father.D. He was dissatisfied with his father.DScientists are debating how to limit their newly-discovered power to change genetic structure.Scientists already modify the genes of farm animals and agricultural plants to make them more productive or stronger. But now they can also change genes in wild animals and plants. These genes would continue into later generations. For example, it may be possible for scientists to remove from existence the kind of mosquitoes that carry the Zika virus. They might also be able to permanently remove species of plants and animals that are destructive to other species.In a report published last week, the U. S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine (NAS) said it supports continued research on this kind of gene control. But it warned that it is not possible to know what will happen when these changed plants and animals are released into the wild.Sixteen biologists, ethicists(伦理学家) and policymakers are on an NAS committee that is examining the issue. They say that there is value to the new technology. But, they say, there is not enough evidence to support the release of modified organisms (生物体) from the laboratory into nature.Many people would support stopping mosquitoes and rats from carrying diseases. But scientists say we must understand the possible scientific, ethical, legal and social results of such action before we decide whether to take it. Gene modification is spread through reproduction(繁殖).Changed genes will continue to spread as long as an animal or plant continues to reproduce. They cannot be limited to a farm or kept within a country’s borders. Scientists are wondering what may happen if a modified organism mates with another species. They are not yet sure how the modified genes would affect the other species. It is possible that those genes could harm those creatures or even lead to their disappearance from our planet.12．What possible advantage does gene control in wild animals and plants have?A. Changing the Zika virus permanently.B. Removing the destructive sp ecies for ever.C. Having changed genes in their next generations.D. Making all the species more productive and stronger.13．As for genetically changed wild animals and plants ,what are scientists worried about?A. They may become weaker or die out.B. They may be more productive.C. They may cause damage to their living habitat.D. Their genes may spread to later generations.14．Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Scientists are not sure what exact results gene modification leads to.B. Scientists won’t modify any genes before they make the final decision.C. Gene modification has benefited some farm animals and agricultural plants.D. Scientists have not applied gene modification to wild animals and plants in case of possible danger.15．What can be the best title for the passage?A. Stop research on gene controlB. How to change genetic structureC. Power and danger of gene controlD. Advantages of gene control in wild animals and plants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。

at her old high school other than the green color on the walls．Akinosun won her medal with the 400﹣meter relay team at the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro this summer．Her return to her high school recently included a chance for the young woman to tell what she's learned since running track for Wsubonsie more than fours year ago．Her first piece of advice to the crowd of students was asking them to listen to their parents．"They see things you can't see，"she said．"In high school I thought I was on the top of the world．"In Akinosun's case，her parents encouraged her to consider going to the University of Illinois，which at the time had a team that was coached by Olympic medal winner Tonja Buford﹣Bailey．"I wouldn't be where I am today without my parents，"she said．Her parents saw Buford﹣Bailey as a good fit to coach their daughter，somethingAkinosun said she didn't understand at the time．It didn't take long，however，for her to see they were right and she ended up following Buford﹣Bailey to the University of Texas at Austin when the coach took a job there．Akinosun admitted it was three years before she told her parents they were right．Becoming an excellent athlete who can take part in the Olympics needs serious dedication．She says her success came from viewing herself as an athlete﹣student instead of a student﹣athlete．"I always put track and field first，and then comes school，"Akinosun said．A social life comes last．"It's about sacrifices（牺牲）．You can't be on the track team unless you're chosen，"she added．Making athletics the most important thing in her life meant committing fully，no matter how she might feel on a given day．"I never missed a training session （环节）in my four years in college，"she said．"It's my job；it's what I do．Think about that when you want to sleep in．"21．Which of the following statements is TRUE about Akinosun according to the article？A．She was a big fan of Buford﹣Bailey in high school．B．She make up her mind to win Olympic medals in high school．C．She still doesn't want to admit that her parents helped her a lot．D．She is thankful to her parents for finding her the right coach．22．According to Akinosun，she became a successful athlete because．A．she had great confidence in herself．B．she always put training before anything else．C．she was pushed by her coach to train hard．D．she could keep a good balance between school and training．23．The underlined word"dedication"in Paragraph 6 is closest in meaning to．A．committing fullyB．knowing oneselfC．a clear purposeD．a strong desire24．What's the best title of the passage？A．How Akinosun spent her high school years．B．The story of Akinosun's success．C．Being an athlete is not easy．D．Akinosun's advice to her schoolmates．25．（6分）Getting ripped off from time to time is just part of traveling﹣﹣﹣don't let it ruin your day or your overall experience．But there are things you can do to avoid some of the most common rip﹣offs．Let me share my travel tips for how to avoid hidden fees，disappointed experiences and overpriced items．Baggage FeesDepending upon the airline，you can pay 15to75for the first checked bag，and more for overweight bags．When possible，pack a bag lightly enough to a carry﹣on or fly airlines that still allow free checked bags（two bags for Southwest and one for JetBlue）．Many airline programs allow members with a high status to have a free checked bag，so check your status．Overpriced Hotel and Airport FoodTo avoid the overpriced water sold at airports，bring an empty water bottle with you through security at the airport．Then，fill it up at a water fountain or ask a waiter at a coffee shop to fill it up for you．Pick up some snacks at a local corner store instead of hitting the hotel room mini bar，which can lead to expensive surprises on your final bill．Tourist Trap RestaurantsIf you're visiting a restaurant or attraction that has online presence，Google it or search it on Yelp to see what the locals say about it and to find any available coupons （优惠券）that might get some extra savings．Often restaurants run deals on Yelp where if you"check in"at that restaurant and review it，you get a free dessert or 15%off the total bill，etc．By researching online，you'll not only see whether there are any coupons or extra savings available，but people will tell you if the chef changed a month ago and the food is awful now．25．To have a free checked bag，you shall not．A．take a light carry﹣onB．have a high statusC．take overweight bagsD．choose Southwest Airlines26．If you want to drink free water at an airport，you can．A．take a bottle of water through securityB．go to a water fountainC．go to a store at the airportD．order a coffee at a coffee shop27．The passage is probably written by．A．a travel agentB．an economical personC．an experienced travelerD．a skilled net﹣worker．28．（8分）When The New Republic magazine predicted who would win the 2016Nobel Prize in literature on Oct.6，it said："Not Bob Dylan．That's for sure．" But the award came as a surprise to many．On Oct 13，the famous US musician was named the Nobel laureate by the Swedish Academy．He has"created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition"，according to the organization．Although Dylan，75，is not really thought to be a literary writer，he has given the world a lot of creative works over 50years，especially when it comes to his folk songs．In his 1985album Biograph，Dylan wrote about the appeal of folk music to him．Rocksongs"weren't serious enough or didn't reflect life in a realistic way"，according to Dylan．But folk，was"a more serious type of thing．The songs are filled with more sadness，more joy…much deeper feelings．"Dylan's music and lyrics（抒情诗）spoke to many people during the 1960s．His lyrics were often about great political issues，such as the civil rights movement．The 1960s were a time of change when the young were making sure that their voices were heard．The idea is most famously expressed in Dylan's The Times They Are a﹣Changin'（1964），which warns the world，"You better start swimming or you'll sink like a stone．For the times they are a﹣changin'!"There were complaints that a literary prize had been given to a singer．But ancient"Greek poets Homer ND Sappho wrote poetic works that were meant to be listened to，that were meant to be performed，often with instruments and it's the same way with Dylan"，the Swedish Academy's permanent secretary Sara Danius told CNN．It could even be said that giving the important prize to Dylan has brought back an old literary tradition．The millions whose lives Dylan's words and music have changed will surely welcome the award．28．Dylan found folk music attractive because．A．It brought joy to people．B．It could be used to express feelings freely．C．It reflected life on a much deeper level．D．It needed more creativity than other types of music．29．Which of the following statements is TRUE about Dylan according to the article？A．He never thought that he would win the Nobel Prize．B．Most of his influential works were created in the 1960s．C．His songs expressed people's feelings well during the 1960s．D．His fans were mostly young people who were active in political movements．30．According to the last two paragraphs，．A．lyrics can be seen as a literary form．B．a literary prize should not be given to a singer．C．Dylan's works were inspired by Greek poets．D．Dylan deserves the award because he influenced many song﹣writers．31．What's the author's attitude toward giving Bob Dylan the 2016 Nobel Prize in literature？A．supportiveB．objectiveC．doubtfulD．negative．32．（8分）Internet data shows that younger adults have become the main audience crazy about changing their appearance．Once the world of the female in her fifties，plastic surgery（整形手术）has become the focus of the younger Internet users．The recent death of Stephanie Kuleba，an 18﹣year﹣old high school cheerleader who died as a result of plastic surgery，brought our attention to the fashion of becoming a more"ideal"body among teenagers．In fact，search data confirms this phenomenon．One of the most popular sites visited from the search term"plastic surgery"is the official site of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons （www．plastic surgery．org）．Over 25% of the visitors，which is up from 19.6% two years ago，fell within the 18to 24years old．Plastic surgery has become an American obsession （痴迷）．Checking other countries，such as the UK and Australia，the 18to 24﹣year﹣old's being interested in plastic surgery is an obvious US phenomenon．Unlike the other groups who visit sites related to diseases and keeping healthy，younger Internet users rush to sites that deal with personal appearance，such as those focused on body﹣building，weight loss and skin﹣care，and obviously plastic surgery．While television on surgery may be driving the interest of a younger audience，one factor appears to be a key in preventing such teens from changing their bodies：the failing U．S．economy．There has been a decline in all plastic surgery topics over thelast year．While older age continue to search for information on procedures such as liposuction（抽脂），it's younger Internet users who in tough economic times are focusing on improving their outer beauty，though at a discount price．32．Why does the author mention the death of the 18﹣year﹣old cheerleader？A．To show cheerleaders pay more attention to their appearance．B．To warn people that plastic surgery is not as safe as it is said to be．C．To prove the fact that people will pursue beauty at any cost．D．To draw attention to the issue of young people having plastic surgery．33．While young people are surfing on the Internet，they are very interested in．A．how to be physically and mentally healthy．B．how to make themselves look young．C．how to prevent and cure diseases．D．how to have more attractive appearance．34．What may affect young people's decision on whether to have plastic surgery？A．The safety of the operationB．The total expense of the surgery．C．The need for having the operation．D．The results of the surgery．35．What can we learn from the last paragraph？A．Americans，old or young，are crazy about plastic surgery．B．Liposuction is the most expensive plastic surgery．C．Outer beauty means more to young people than inner beauty．D．Young people often get discount when having plastic surgery．36．（10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能放入空白处的最佳选项．选项中有两项为多余选项．Exercise is very important when it comes to dropping pounds．So if you're eager to lose weight，then here are three everyday changes that will help increase your calorieburn．Hello Sunshine（36）．Research shows that people who exercise in the morning work harder and for longer periods，which may be because they're clearer in thinking and more energetic and they don't feel as rushed as afternoon or evening exercisers．（37），which will help even more with your weigh﹣loss journey．（38）When it comes to cardio（有氧运动），running will help you lose more weight than walking since it burns more calories．But if you increase your speed just a little，then you'll burn even more．（39．Adding sprinting intervals（间隔冲刺）is a useful way to increase your calorie burn and has also been proven to reduce belly（腹部）fat．Also be sure to swing your arms as you move，and you'll burn 15percent more calories．Strength TrainMuscle burns more calories than fat does，so the more muscle quality you have，the better it is for weight loss．（40）．Include strength﹣training moves throughout your day，such as push﹣ups on the bathroom counter and kick your legs while brushing your teeth．You can also work your body by carrying a basket instead of pushing a cart，using the stairs whenever possible and sitting on an exercise ball instead of a chair．A．Getting into a morning routine will also help you stick with itB．Run instead of walkingC．Muscles exercise is the key to weight﹣lossD．And don't stick to a consistent pace during the entire trainingE．Morning exercises burn more caloriesF．Don't just hit the weight room at the gymG．Get Speedy．英语知识运用（共2小题，满分45分）41．（30分）完形填空I know I'm not perfect．But I think there is a（n）（41）side of my own weaknesses and faults，for they seem to bring joy to others．Or maybe it's just that I underestimate the importance of my own （42）．I might be the man who was driving a car with a（n）（43）that read，"Hang up and drive．"A police officer was （44）to see the sign，as she had witnessed too many （45）caused by motorists talking on cell phones．Wanting to show her agreement to the driver，she pulled up alongside the car．But she was （46）to see the car driver shaving．Maybe it is just （47）to tell the weaknesses in others．It's like the camel．An African proverb states，"The camel

roadside restaurant for lunch．The woman left her （52）on the table．Her husband （53）all the way back to the restaurant about her （54）leaving her glasses behind．They eventually arrived，and the woman got out of the car to get her eye glasses，the old man said，"（55）you're there，you may as well get my hat，too"．Everything that annoys us about others can lead us to a（n）（56）of ourselves．The humps we can't help but seeing in others are （57）like the humps others see in us．Or，perhaps they are like the humps we see in ourselves．So，what would happen if we'd （58）other people's faults and humps as a

old high school other than the green color on the walls．Akinosun won her medal with the 400﹣meter relay team at the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro this summer．Her return to her high school recently included a chance for the young woman to tell what she's learned since running track for Wsubonsiemore than fours year ago．Her first piece of advice to the crowd of students was asking them to listen to their parents．"They see things you can't see，"she said．"In high school I thought I was on the top of the world．"In Akinosun's case，her parents encouraged her to consider going to the University of Illinois，which at the time had a team that was coached by Olympic medal winner Tonja Buford﹣Bailey．"I wouldn't be where I am today without my parents，"she said．Her parents saw Buford﹣Bailey as a good fit to coach their daughter，something Akinosun said she didn't understand at the time．It didn't take long，however，for her to see they were right and she ended up following Buford﹣Bailey to the University of Texas at Austin when the coach took a job there．Akinosun admitted it was three years before she told her parents they were right．Becoming an excellent athlete who can take part in the Olympics needs serious dedication．She says her success came from viewing herself as an athlete﹣student instead of a student﹣athlete．"I always put track and field first，and then comes school，"Akinosun said．A social life comes last．"It's about sacrifices（牺牲）．You can't be on the track team unless you're chosen，"she added．Making athletics the most important thing in her life meant committing fully，no matter how she might feel on a given day．"I never missed a training session （环节）in my four years in college，"she said．"It's my job；it's what I do．Think about that when you want to sleep in．"21．Which of the following statements is TRUE about Akinosun according to the article？DA．She was a big fan of Buford﹣Bailey in high school．B．She make up her mind to win Olympic medals in high school．C．She still doesn't want to admit that her parents helped her a lot．D．She is thankful to her parents for finding her the right coach．22．According to Akinosun，she became a successful athlete because B．A．she had great confidence in herself．B．she always put training before anything else．C．she was pushed by her coach to train hard．D．she could keep a good balance between school and training．23．The underlined word"dedication"in Paragraph 6 is closest in meaning to A．A．committing fullyB．knowing oneselfC．a clear purposeD．a strong desire24．What's the best title of the passage？BA．How Akinosun spent her high school years．B．The story of Akinosun's success．C．Being an athlete is not easy．D．Akinosun's advice to her schoolmates．【分析】本文是一篇人物故事类阅读，属于人物传记，奥运会金牌得主Morolake Akinosun走过美国伊利诺斯州的高中的大厅．本文以此展开讲述，主要讲述了运动员Akinosun如何一步步走向成功，成为一个出色的运动员的故事．【解答】21．答案：D．细节理解题．根据"I wouldn't be where I am today without my parents，"she said．Her parents saw Buford﹣Bailey as a good fit to coach their daughter，something Akinosun said she didn't understand at the time．可知，Akinosun感谢她的父母找到一个好的教练．故选D．22．答案：B．细节理解题．根据"I always put track and field first，and then comes school，"Akinosun said．A social life comes last．"It's about sacrifices（牺牲）．You can't be on the track team unless you're chosen，"she added．可知，她之所以成功是因为她把所有事情都放在运动锻炼之后．故选B．23．答案：A．词义猜测题．根据下文内容可知，她把所有事情都放在运动锻炼之后．故可推测出，成为一个优秀的运动员才能参加奥运会需要奉献．故该词意为奉献．故选A．24．答案：B．主旨大意题．阅读全文，根据文章内容可知，本文主要讲述了运动员Akinosun如何一步步走向成功，成为一个出色的运动员的故事．故选B．【点评】本文是一篇人物故事类阅读，题目涉及多道细节理解题，词义猜测题，主旨大意题．做题时学生应仔细阅读原文，把握文章主要内容，联系文章上下文内容并结合所给选项含义，从中选出正确答案，一定要做到有理有据，切忌胡乱猜测．25．（6分）Getting ripped off from time to time is just part of traveling﹣﹣﹣don't let it ruin your day or your overall experience．But there are things you can do to avoid some of the most common rip﹣offs．Let me share my travel tips for how to avoid hidden fees，disappointed experiences and overpriced items．Baggage FeesDepending upon the airline，you can pay 15to75for the first checked bag，and more for overweight bags．When possible，pack a bag lightly enough to a carry﹣on or fly airlines that still allow free checked bags（two bags for Southwest and one for JetBlue）．Many airline programs allow members with a high status to have a free checked bag，so check your status．Overpriced Hotel and Airport FoodTo avoid the overpriced water sold at airports，bring an empty water bottle with you through security at the airport．Then，fill it up at a water fountain or ask a waiter at a coffee shop to fill it up for you．Pick up some snacks at a local corner store instead of hitting the hotel room mini bar，which can lead to expensive surprises on your final bill．Tourist Trap RestaurantsIf you're visiting a restaurant or attraction that has online presence，Google it or search it on Yelp to see what the locals say about it and to find any available coupons （优惠券）that might get some extra savings．Often restaurants run deals on Yelpwhere if you"check in"at that restaurant and review it，you get a free dessert or 15% off the total bill，etc．By researching online，you'll not only see whether there are any coupons or extra savings available，but people will tell you if the chef changed a month ago and the food is awful now．25．To have a free checked bag，you shall not C．A．take a light carry﹣onB．have a high statusC．take overweight bagsD．choose Southwest Airlines26．If you want to drink free water at an airport，you can B．A．take a bottle of water through securityB．go to a water fountainC．go to a store at the airportD．order a coffee at a coffee shop27．The passage is probably written by C．A．a travel agentB．an economical personC．an experienced travelerD．a skilled net﹣worker．【分析】本文从行李费用，宾馆费用，机场食物和网上订餐这几个方面讲述了一些旅行的省钱小经验．【解答】25．C．细节理解题．由第二段Depending upon the airline，you can pay 15to75for the first checked bag，and more for overweight bags．可知带过重的东西会收费，故选C．26．B．细节理解题．由第三段Then，fill it up at a water fountain or ask a waiter at a coffee shop to fill it up for you可知，在饮水间里提供的水是免费的，故选B．27．C．主旨归纳题．本文从行李费用，宾馆费用，机场食物和网上订餐这几个方面讲述了一些旅行的省钱小经验，因此作者是一个旅行经历丰富的人，故选C．。
