But I think it might fun to share some of what I’ve learned,along with a few backstage stories.Tootsie’s Orchid LoungeIf walls could talk. . . well, in Tootsie’s they almost do. The whole history of country music, from the famous to the almost famous, smiles down from the tattered walls of this honky tonk bar –8 x 10s, candid photos, bits of napkin with song lyrics. Back in the early 1960s, this place doubled as a songwriting hangout for the likes of Willie Nelson, Roger Miller and Kris Kristofferson. Today, it offers round the clock country music and cold beer.Ernest Tubb Record ShopWhen Tub b used to tour around the country in the late 1940s, his fans asked him, “Where can I buy your records? Where can I buy records by Bill Monroe or Roy Acuff?” In response, Tubb decided to open his store that specialized in country and hillbilly music. Sixty-five years later, it’s still going strong. Looking for that hard-to-find George Jones box set, DVDs of The Johnny Cash Show, or Loretta Lynn’s cookbook? Find it here.Hatch Show Print“Advertising without posters is like fishing without worms.” That was t he slogan of Hatch when they opened in 1879. A hundred and thirty years later, they’ve survived every new technology and trend to stand alone as the world’s best-known letterpress printing shop. They make amazing, one-of-a-kind posters – all hand designed, hand cut, hand inked. And their client list includes everyone from Elvis to Garth Brooks to Ringling Bros. Circus. If you’re looking to bring a true Nashville souvenir back home, you can’t go wrong with a Hatch show print.Grand Ole OpryNo trip to Nashvi lle would be complete without experiencing the radio show that “made country music famous.” Since 1925, the Opry has been mixing music, comedy skits and live commercials into its down-home Saturday night broadcast. Today, it features contemporary artists like Alan Jackson and Brad Paisley sharing the bill with such legends as Connie Smith, Stonewall Jackson and Little Jimmie Dickens.56.According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?A.Ernest Tubb Record Shop specialized in pop music at first.B.The printing technology has been updated at Hatch Show printC.Grand Ole Opry is a must if you want to pay a visit to NashvilleD.Toolsie’s Orchid Lounge offers visitors free beer 24 hours a day.57.Which group of peole would probably be interested in visiting these places?A.Sports fansB. Modern poetsC. History teachers D Music lovers.BIt’s almost a three-week trip. It’ll cost you at least 100,000 yuan (US$15,000). And before you even set foot on land you’ll have to wear special boots and walk over a sponge mat soaked in disinfectant(消毒剂).If you think this sounds appealing then welcome to Antarctica（南极洲）, where the high cost of travel is doing little to discourage thousands of Chinese tourists from visiting each year.Since trips were first approved for Chinese tourists in 2007, about 13,000 of them have made the journey, with over 5000 setting foot on the Antarctic Peninsula in the 2016-17 tourist season alone. They were among over 40,000 visitors that season, with Americans making up the largest single group.Typically, Chinese tourists will fly to Ushuaia in Argentina where they will then board a cruise ship for a tour of the Antarctic Peninsula, or this combined with the Falkland Islands and South Georgia in the southern Atlantic Ocean.Gao Jie, director of overseas trips at Shanghai China Travel Service, said that a broader range of Chinese tourists are now making the trip. “Initially in 2008 it was a small number of business founders and photographers. Now you see owners of small and medium businesses, artists, amateur photographers, teachers, retirees, students –a trip to Antarctica is a lot more achievable than it used to be.”The youngest of Gao Jie’s customers had his sixth birthday the day before setting off –just reaching the minimum age permitted. The agency is applying for a Guinness world record on his behalf.The number of tourists to Antarctica has more than doubled from about 20,000 in 2010-11 to about 45,000 in 2016-17. This compares to just over 6,700 visitors in 1992.As the number of tourists grows, some are worried that the Antarctic environment will be damaged.Chinese tourists travel on organised cruises (only one couple has made an independent trip), and are subject to strict rules. Cruise ships are registered with the International Association of Antarctica Tour Operators (IAATO) and operate under the terms of the Antarctic Treaty. IAATO’s guide for tourists explains how to avoid disturbing animal and plant life, protected areas, and scientific activities.Some countries where Antarctic tourism is more established have their own specific rules for visiting, alongside those set out in the Antarctic Treaty. The US forbids carrying rubbish, plants or animals, and breaches can be dealt with under civil or criminal law. Japan requires visitors to register with its environmental authorities. As yet, China has no such rules in place.Although there are no Chinese government policies regulating tourist behaviour in the polar regions, there is some consensus within the industry on the need to promote responsible tourism.Ten travel agencies signed up to one such initiative in May at an Antarctic Treatymeeting held in Beijing. This will see the companies help tourists buy carbon credits to offset the five tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions that result from one person’s trip. This is equivalent to approximately two return flights from Beijing to London.58.According to the first two paragraphs, which of the following statements is true?A.In the 2016-17 tourist seasons, Chinese tourists made up the largest single group.B.Chinese tourists will visit the Antarctic Peninsula by air or South Georgia by sea.C.Before setting foot on Antarctic, tourists have to follow special steps to make boots clean.D.The high cost of a trip in Antarctic has discouraged many Chinese tourists from visiting.59.What can we infer from what Gao Jie said in Paragraph 3?A. A wider range of Chinese tourists afford a trip in Antarctic.B.Even a six-year-old child set off on a journey to Antarctic alone.C.The cost of travelling in Antarctic has become much less than before.D.Business founders and photographers set good examples to the followers.60.What have Chinese people done to promote responsible tourism in Antarctic?A.Some tourists are required to register with the environmental authorities.B.Chinese government has some policies to control tourist behavior in the polar area.C.Chinese tourists are forbidden from carrying rubbish, plants or animals into Antarctic.D.Some Chinese travel agencies will help tourists buy carbon credits based on the agreement.61.What is the best title for the passage?A.Chinese tourists flood to AntarcticB.Tourism at Antarctic is growing fastC.An expensive three-week trip to AntarcticD.How to protect the Antarctic environmentCUsing a new technique known as 4D printing,researchers can print out dynamic 3D structures capable of changing their shapes over time.Such 4D-printed items could one day be used in everything from medical implants to home appliances, scientists added.Today's 3D printing creates items from a wide variety of materials —plastic, ceramic, glass, metal, and even more unusual ingredients such as chocolate andliving cells. The machines work by setting down layers of material just like ordinary printers lay down ink, except 3D printers can also deposit flat layers on top of each other to build 3D objects."Today, this technology can be found not just in industry, but [also] in households for less than $1,000," said lead study author Dan Raviv, a mathematician at MIT. "Knowing you can print almost anything, not just 2D paper, opens a window to unlimited opportunities, where toys, household appliances and tools can be ordered online and manufactured in our living rooms."_①_ Now, in a further step, Raviv and his colleagues are developing 4D printing, which involves 3D printing items that are designed to change shape after they are printed."The most exciting part is the numerous applications that can emerge from this work," Raviv told Live Science. "This is not just a cool project or an interesting solution, but something that can change the lives of many."In a report published online today (Dec. 18) in the journal Scientific Reports, the researchers explain how they printed 3D structures using two materials with different properties. One material was a stiff plastic, and stayed rigid（硬的）, while the other was water absorbent, and could double in volume when submerged in water. _②_"In the future, we imagine a wide range of applications," Raviv said. These could include appliances that can adapt to heat and improve functionality or comfort, childcare products that can react to humidity or temperature, and clothing and footwear that will perform better by sensing the environment, he said. _③_In addition, 4D-printed objects could lead to novel medical implants. "Today, researchers are printing biocompatible（不会引起排斥的）parts to be implanted in our body," Raviv said. "We can now generate structures that will change shape and functionality without external intervention."One key health-care application might be cardiac stents, tubes placed inside the heart to aid healing. "We want to print parts that can survive a lifetime inside the body if necessary," Raviv said.The researchers now want to create both larger and smaller 4D-printed objects. "Currently, we've made items a few centimeters in size," Raviv said. "For things that go inside the body, we want to go 10 to 100 times smaller. For home appliances, we want to go 10 times larger."_④_ Raviv cautioned that a great deal of research is needed to improve the materials used in 4D printing. For instance, although the 4D-printed objects the researchers developed can withstand a few cycles of wetting and drying, after several dozen cycles of folding and unfolding, the materials lose their ability to change shape. The scientists said they would also like to develop materials that respond to factors other than water, such as heat and light.pared with 3D printing, 4D printing______.A.creates items from unusual materials like chocolateB.prints objects 100 times smaller than 3D-printed onesC.is in widespread use with its numerous applicationsD.creates items that can change shape and functionality63.The underlined phrase “this technology”refer to_____.A.2D printingB. 3D printingC. 4D printingD. ordinary printer64.“The precise formula of this water-absorbent material, developed by 3D-printing company Stratasys in Eden Prairie,Minnesota,remains a secret.” should be put in_____.A.①B.②C.③D.④65.What kind of material is needed for the development of 4D printing?A.The materials that save a lot of people’s lives.B.The materials that can absorb water more easily.C.The materials that can better adapt to the environment.D.The materials that can change shape with external intervention.DAs Connie took the plates away, I noticed a stack of newspapers that had obviously been read before I got there.You bother keeping up with the news, I asked? "Yes," Morrie said. "Do you think that's strange? Do you think because I'm dying, I shouldn't care what happens in this world?"Maybe.He sighed. "Maybe you're right. Maybe I shouldn't care. After all, I won't be around to see how it all turns out."But it's hard to explain, Mitch. Now that I'm suffering, I feel closer to people who suffer than I ever did before. The other night, on TV, I saw people in Bosnia running across the street, getting fired upon, killed, innocent victims . . . and I just started to cry. I feel their anguish as if it were my own. I don't know any of these people. But-how can I put this?-I'm almost . . . drawn to them."His eyes got moist, and I tried to change the subject, but he dabbed his face and waved me off."I cry all the time now," he said. "Never mind."Amazing, I thought. I worked in the news business. I covered stories where people died. I interviewed grieving family members. I even attended the funerals. I never cried. Morrie, for thesuffering of people half a world away, was weeping. Is this what comes at the end, I wondered? Maybe death is the great equalizer, the one big thing that can finally make strangers shed a tear for one another.Morrie honked loudly into the tissue. "This is okay with you, isn't it? Men crying?"Sure, I said, too quickly.He grinned. "Ah, Mitch, I'm gonna loosen you up. One day, I'm gonna show you it's okay to cry."Yeah, yeah, I said. "Yeah, yeah," he said.We laughed because he used to say the same thing nearly twenty years earlier. Mostly on Tuesdays. In fact, Tuesday had always been our day together. Most of my courses with Morrie were on Tuesdays, he had office hours on Tuesdays, and when I wrote my senior thesiswhich was pretty much Morrie's suggestion, right from the start-it was on Tuesdays that we sat together, by his desk, or in the cafeteria, or on the steps of Pearlman Hall, going over the work.So it seemed only fitting that we were back together on a Tuesday, here in the house with the Japanese maple out front. As I readied to go, I mentioned this to Morrie."We're Tuesday people," he said. Tuesday people, I repeated.Morrie smiled."Mitch, you asked about caring for people I don't even know. But can I tell you the thing I'm learning most with this disease?"What's that?"The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in."His voice dropped to a whisper. "Let it come in. We think we don't deserve love, we think if we let it in we'll become too soft. But a wise man named Levine said it right. He said, `Love is the only rational(理性的) act.' "He repeated it carefully, pausing for effect. " `Love is the only rational act.' "I nodded, like a good student, and he exhaled weakly. I leaned over to give him a hug. And then, although it is not really like me, I kissed him on the cheek. I felt his weakened hands on my arms, the thin stubble of his whiskers brushing my face."So you'll come back next Tuesday?" he whispered.66.What kind of person do you think Morrie is?A.Kind and sensitiveB. Sensitive and energeticmitted and stubbornD.Depressed and stubborn67.What relationship do you suppose Morrie and Mitch share?A.NeighborsB.ColleaguesC. Father and son.D. Teacher and student68.Which of the following details shows that Mitch has been influenced by Morrie?A. I learned over to give him a hugB. I nodded,like a good studentC.I kissed him on the cheekD.Sure, I said, too quickly69.What does the underlined phrase “loosen you up”mean?A. let you goB. make you relaxedC.lose control of youD. allow you to be free70.What is the author likely to write about next?A. More Tuesdays with MorrieB. More about Mitch’s school lifeC.More reports about dying peopleD. More about the cause of Morrie’s disease第三部分任务型阅读Telecommuting, also known as teleworking, is the act of working from a remote location, usually one’s home.This is made simple with the use of various telecommunications technologies such as a telephone, fax machine and the internet. Many telecommuters are also set up with web conferencing capabilities, allowing them to sit in on office meetings viamodem and webcam, or at the very least, a conference call.In most cases, telecommuting equipment is provided by the company, though it's up to the teleworker to provide an office space free of distraction. For the worker, the benefits are many. Most enjoy the flexibility of working their own hours, at their own pace, as long as all deadlines are met. There's also the ability to work in one's pajamas or take breaks as needed at attend to personal family matters. Money is saved on expenses such as commuting, lunch or snacks, clothing, and daycare.Telecommuting not only enables an employee the convenience of working at home, it also allows the employer to save money on certain overhead expenses such as utilities. In addition, since telecommuters are happier, they're often more productive; they may spend more time working than their office working counterparts who tend to spend more time on lunch breaks or chit-chatting around the coffee maker. Absenteeism is less common because sick workers still work at home, and they put in longer hours because they never leave their office.The flip side to this is the lack of camaraderie; telecommuting can be rather lonely. By missing out on the office gossip and small company meetings, the worker can also miss out on vital pieces of information. Even though most people enjoy working without a micromanaging supervisor looking over their shoulders, they also admit it's difficult for them to get a proper review when their employers can't see them on a day-to-day basis. It's difficult to stand out in an organization or be a team player when you're not there everydayIf you're easily distracted or like to procrastinate, telecommuting may not be a good choice for you. If you're self-motivated and don't need constant supervision, it can provide an excellent opportunity. If you have a proven record with your organization, you're a good candidate for this type of job. If you have a reputation for slacking off, however, it would probably be unwise to approach your employer about working from home.There's usually no harm in approaching your employer about working from home. Research the pros and cons and be prepared to sell yourself. Just leave out the part about working in your第四部分单词拼写81.In this bicycle store, you will see all kinds of bikes with prices r_____from $100 to $1,000.82.Alcohol, if c___in large quantities,will cause damage to our lives and even worse,will cost us our lives.83.He has decided to study abroad with the i_____of finding a better job when he returns.84.If your find your approach doesn’t work well,it’s time you a_____a new one.85.You are actually already in p_____of your most important gifts: time.86.Having a ____(积极的)attitude and outlook is extremely important in our daily lives and we shouldn’t let negative thoughts take over.87.Our high-speed railway industry has____(扩张)greatly internationally for its competitive price and good quality.88.If your life lacks the____(动机)that you need,sometimes all you have to do is to change your point of view.89.I’m afraid your suggestion is not practical.

This interactive activity will give you the answers when you explore modern food systems, which include producing, processing, distributing, retailing (零售), consuming, and disposing(处理) of food.Ask An Elder: What Is Your Childhood Food Story?What’s for dinner?

The rare genetic condition worsened her vision.She explained that there were few visually damaged role models in the public field. And while the first New York fashion show starring blind models took the stage in 2016, visually damaged models still don’t have a large presence in fashion.So Smith began planning her own show over a year ago. She initially planned for only a handful of models, but after announcing the event, she expanded the number of participants after reaching more visually damaged woman than she expected. “I’m inspired even by my own self,” she said.Rafia Lawal, also a model, 37, was diagnosed with cataracts as a young girl. She auditioned(试演) for a spot on “America’s Next Top Model ” during the show’s early seasons but wasn’t selected. She blamed it on her previous lack of confidence and insecurity due to her disability. “Instead of looking at the camera, I was kind of closing my eyes,” she said. Now filled with confidence, she said she viewed the event as a chance to correct the belief that blind or visually damaged women don’t care about fashion.4．Why did Anna lee Smith plan her own show?A．To raise money frown visually c am aged worsen.B．To make her own fashion show a new trend.C．To boost her confidence in organizational skills.D．To involve more visually damaged women in fashion.5．Which word can best describe Annalee Smith?A．Ambitious.B．Modest.C．Honest.D．Generous.6．What is the function of the last paragraph?A．Giving more background information.B．Sharing another visually damaged woman’s story.C．Indicating the positive influence of the show.D．Stressing the importance of confidence.7．What is the best title of the text?A．A Model Devoted to Joining Fashion ShowB．A Fashion Show Featuring Visually Damaged ModelsC．A Program to Organize Shows for Disabled womanD．A Story Behind Visually Damaged WomenWho says that being roommates with someone from a completely different generation has to be strange? Lately, more and more Americans are becoming intergenerational roommates who are separated by at least one generation living together. They’re changing the way people think they should be living.There has been a major increase in intergenerational roommate arrangements within the United States since 1971. In fact, statistics show that this number has actually quadrupled(增长四倍) since then. In a Pew Research Center article, it shared that by March 2021, there were at least 59.7 million US residents that had multiple generations living underneath one roof.There are a ton of factors that come into play for these types of arrangements. For some, it’s because of the increase in the average life-expectancy age, a decreased birth rate, a rise in college tuition, the ever rising rentals occurring in almost every coastal city, and more. But if anything, many claim that one main reason behind the rise is due to older people having space to rent out and that having younger folk around just makes them happier.According to a 25-year-old robotics student living in Massachusetts, Nadia Abdullah, who moved in with her 64-year-old roommate Judith in 2019, “It was perfect — Judith hasbecome like my family.”Their arrangement was $700 a month from Nadia, plus the promise of her doing some help around the house. This also allowed Nadia to live just 6-miles from Boston and 30-minutes from her robotics job located in Beverly Mass. Nadia was matched with Judith through website, a renting hub(中心) specifically created to find intergenerational roommates.Another young renting hub reviewer, Kaplan, also gave some insight into the service and why it’s so special, saying, “Through this, I lived with Sarah while attending Harvard. She provided the type of knowledge you just can’t Google-showing me how to garden, how to cook fish, and add French Romanticism to life.”8．What is the increasing housing trend in the text?A．More residents are living together as roommates.B．Strangers of a generation are living together like a family.C．Different generations are living underneath the same roof.D．family members of different generations are living together.9．What does the third paragraph mainly tell us?A．The types of the arrangements.B．The reasons for the arrangements.C．The solutions to the arrangements.D．The problems with the arrangements. 10．What could Kaplan learn from the roommate?A．How to goggle special knowledge.B．How to show someone a garden.C．How to fish before cooking.D．How to live a romantic life. 11．What can be concluded from Nadia and Kaplan’s experiences?A．The website is popular with university students.B．The intergenerational roommates should help each other.C．The intergenerational roommate arrangements work well.D．The elderly benefit more than the young from the arrangements.Rachel Carson’s classic best seller about ecological threats, Silent Spring, started a wave of American environmentalism. It played a direct role in the 1972 decision to ban the use of the pesticide(杀虫剂)DDT. Sixty years ago, the public was introduced to Carson’s arguments. The coming anniversary makes this a good time to consider whether the book achieved one of her major goals: protecting wildlife and, in particular, birds.Carsen took a complex technical subject — the damaging effects of persistent pesticide and expressed it in one simple, poetic image: a spring in which no birds sang. She asked us to imagine what it would be like to awaken in the morning in a world without these songs. She wrote with grace, and she made us feel the loss. But how well have we acted on Carson’s warnings?With some exceptions, we haven’t been very successful, and neither have birds. Twenty-nine percent of North American birds have died out since 1970, Grass lands were the hardest hit, with a documented loss of more than 700 million breeding individuals. The number of dead birds totaled nearly three billion, a figure that sparked(引起) a campaign with tips on what people can do to save them. Given these data, it is easy to conclude that despite the brilliance of her writing, Carson did not succeed in protecting birds.Still, the 2019 bird study, despite its worrying results, also suggests that protecting biodiversity is not lost cause. One important exception is wet lands, where bird abundance increased by 13 percent. The other animative exception is bald eagles, which acre on the edge of extinction at the time Carson wrote, but they recovered in large part as a result of the ban on DDT. A news story published by the Au dub on Society notes that “the numbers show that taking steps like wildlife management, habitat restoration and political action can be effective to save species.”12．How did Rachel Carson fulfill her writing purpose in her book?A．By warning gracefully.B．By arguing simply.C．By thinking critically.D．By drawing vividly,13．What does the underlined word “animative” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A．Alarming.B．EncouragingC．Reliable D．Imaginable.14．What is the writer’s attitude toward the effect of Rachel’s book?A．Negative.B．Objective.C．Positive.D．Unconcerned.15．What is the main idea of the text?A．An American writer didn’t fulfill her promise.B．Our efforts to protect the environment were in vain.C．Books have limitations in raising environmental awareness.D．Birds are still in trouble 60 years after Silent Spring warned us.二、七选五And at the same time, you aced to make your thinking more logical. Keeping your brain sharp is important as your brain has the power to reconnect itself throughout your whole life in a process called neuroplasticity.17 From thinking out strategies that help you learn to undertake challenging tasks, you use logic and strategies to acquire new skills. Try taking up something like learning to cook, play an instrument or speak a foreign language to boost your logical thinking skills.Your brain, like any other body part, improves with exercise. 18 Throughout the day, see how many details of a given moment, list, or task you can remember.Making a conscious effort to notice small things in life can be a huge tool to help you become in ore logical. Do you count the steps in your school or college? Do you look for spelling mistakes in texts? la the answer is no, now would be a great time to start. The more you practice, the healthier your mind will be. 19Connections and friendships nourish the brain and push people to strive to better understand themselves and the world around them. Spending time with close friends and family members regularly is helpful. 20 This can be difficult if you’re shy or introverted, but pushing yourself to take risks socially can actually improve your ability to think logically.A．Overtime, you’ll become a more logical thinker.B．If so, you may want to improve your thinking patterns.C．Learning new abilities required a lot of logical thinking.D．Attending social events is an opportunity to meet new people,E．Having an active brain can help you become a logical thinker.F．A great way to give your brain a workout is to test your recall.G．Your powerful brain can pro note more sound, logical thinking.三、完形填空Leisa a simple 23 like “good morning” in sign language.Fourth grade teacher Kari noticed pupils 24 to communicate with Leisa, so she decided to do something.

The stones have disappeared, but the path of holes remains.The new circle, unearthed over the summer by researchers from Sheffield University, represents an important find, researchers said Saturday. The site is about a mile away from Stonehenge.Bluehenge, about 80 miles southwest of London, is believed to date back to about the time Stonehenge was built, about 5,000 years ago.Mike Parker Pearson of Sheffield University said he believed the path and stonehenge itself were linked torituals(仪式) of life and death.Mike Parker suggested that the ancient funerary rituals began at a different circle site known as “Wood-henge”, which represented the world of the living. The bodies of the dead were then brought down the River Avon to Bluehenge, which represented death, and were finally carried along a ceremonial route known as the Avenue to Stonehenge.Bournemouth University Professor Tim Darvill, an expert on Stonehenge, told Britain’s Dail Mail that Bluehenge “adds to the richness” of the ancient site’s story.“This henge is very important because it forms part of the picture of ceremonial monuments in the area and puts Stonehenge into context,” D arvill was quoted(引述) as saying. “It’s no longer Stonehenge standing alone, but it has to be seen in context with the landscape.”【1】How many henges are mentioned in this passage?A．Two B．Three C．Four D．Five【2】Who believed the Stonehenge is related to ancient ritual of death?A．Archaeologists from London B．Welsh researchersC．Mike Parker Pearson D．Professor Tim Darvill【3】What does the underlined sentence “It’s no longer Stonehenge standing alone, but i t has to be seen in context with the landscape.” in the last paragraph mean?A．Stonehenge has noting to do with BluehengeB．Woodhenge represented the world of living in ancient times.C．Bluehenge represented deathD．Stonehenge, Woodhenge and Bluehenge should be studied together【4】From the passage we can learn that ______.A．researchers have named the site “Bluehenge,” because they have found blue huge stones there B．funerary rituals were carried out along the path starting from Woodhenge, River Avon to Bluehenge, finally Stonehenge.C．Bluehenge is 1 mile away from LondonD．Bluehenge dates back to 2000 BC2.In modern society there is a great deal of argument about competition . Some value it highly , believing that it is responsible for social progress and prosperity . Others say that competition is bad ; that it sets one person against another ; that it leads to unfriendly relationship between people .I have taught many children who held the belief that their self-worth relied (依赖)on how well they performed at tennis and other skills . For them, playing well and winning are often life-and-death affairs. In their single-minded pursuit ( 追求)of success , the development of many other human qualities is sadly forgotten .However ，while some seem to be lost in the desire to succeed , others take an opposite attitude .In a culture which values only the winner and pays no attention to the ordinary players , they strongly blame competition . Among the most vocal are youngsters who have suffered under competitive pressures from their parents or society . Teaching these young people . I often observe in them a desire to fail . They seem to seek failure by not trying to win or achieve success . By not trying , they alw ays have an excuse : “I may have lost . but it doesn’t matter because I really didn’t try . “What is not usually admitted by themselves is the belief that if they had really tried and lost, that would mean a lot . Such a loss would be a measure of their worth . Clearly, this belief is the same as that of the true competitors who try to prove themselves . Both are based on the mistaken belief that one’s self-respect relies on how well one performs in comparison with others . Both are afraid of not being valued . Only as this basic and often troublesome fear begins to dissolve (缓解) can we discover a new meaning in competition .【1】What does this passage mainly talk about ?A．Competition helps to set up self-respect .B．Opinions about competition are different among peopleC．Competition is harmful to personal quality development .D．Failures are necessary experiences in competition【2】Why do some people favor competition according to the passage ?A．It pushes society forward .B．It builds up a sense of duty .C．It improves personal abilities .D．It encourages individual efforts【3】The underlined phrase “the most vocal” in Paragraph 3 means .A．those who try their best to winB．those who value competition most highlyC．those who are against competition most stronglyD．those who rely on others most for success【4】Which point of view may the author agree to ?A．Every effort should be paid back .B．Competition should be encouraged .C．Winning should be a life-and-death matter .D．Fear of failure should be removed in competition3.The International Space Station，one of the most ambitious space projects ever and a key launching board for exploration of the solar system，turns l0 years old Thursday．On Nov．20，1998，the first part of the space station was launched by the Russians from Kazakhstan．NASA followed up two weeks later with Piece No 2 carried up by a space shuttle．The space station has grown into a giant outpost(前哨)355 km up，home to three people at any given time—soon to be six．Thanks to the newly arrived shuttle Endeavour，the space station now has five sleep stations，two baths，two kitchens and two mini—gyms．Ahogether，there are nine rooms，three of which are full scale labs．The United States has financed the main part of the project，estimated to cost some 100 billion dollars．Fifteen other countries have also contributed，including Russia，Japan，Canada，Brazil anti eleven nations belonging to the European Space Agency．Fhe space station has traveled 2．1 billion km，orbited Earth more than 57，300 times，hosted 167 people from 15 countries，and served up more than l 9，000 meals“The ISS is the largest ever expenment in international technological cooperation，” said John Logsdon。

And I’m so grateful and just so excited that we’re really taking a look at the upcoming generation and our generation, since the future is in our hands.Time said Rao stood out for creating a global community of young innovators and inspiring them to pursue their goals. Rao insisted that starting out small doesn't matter, as long as you're passionate about it.She told Time contributing editor Angelina Jolie in an interview that her science pursuits started early as a way to improve social conditions. The drinking water crisis in Flint, Michigan, inspired her work to develop a way to detect pollutants and send those results to a mobile phone, she said.“I was like 10 when I told my parents that I wanted to research carbon nanotube (纳米管) sensor technology at the Denver Water quality research lab, and my mum was like, A what?” Rao told Jolie. She said that work is going to be in our generation’s hands pretty soon. “So if no one else is gonna do it, I’m gonna do it.”In a world where science is increasingly questioned or challenged, Rao insisted that its pursuit is an act of kindness, the best way that a younger generation can better the world.“We have science in everything we’re involved in, and I think that’s the biggest thing to put out there, that science is cool, innovating is cool, and anybody can be an innovator.” Rao said, “Anybody can do science.”4．What did Rao think of the award she received?A．It was a mark of social progress.

Friendships change over time, not just because our children evolve, but because the very nature of friendship evolves with them. The best parents should learn to let go so that their children can succeed in their tween friendships.Early in childhood, our children’s friendships arise out of closeness and habit. We throw our kids into the sandbox with our friends’ kids, and this arrangement works for everyone. As kids get older, however, they begin to build emotional connections with friends based on similarity. Their shared interests, dreams, and goals begin to edge out mere convenience. When they become tweens, friendships become much more complex, and for good reason. Tweens use friendships as a way to try on an identity. They begin to build friendships based on new priorities.All too often, the shifting sands of tween friendship result in broken hearts. Tweens feel abandoned and betrayed as friends move back and forth between comfortable old relationships and exciting new ones. As any parent knows, our own personal heartache hurts, but the secondhand heartbreak we experience through our children is much more painful, mainly because it’s out of our control. The urge to meddle, to save and heal, is powerful,and while meddling around in tween social contact may make us feel better, we must stay out of it.Tweens move from relationship to relationship, adopting this detail of a friend’s personality,abandoning that characteristic of another, until they have collected the essential elements of their identity. Some relationships will survive this process, and some will not, but everyone is an important phase of the journey. We may not love every outfit our tweens try on, but it’s our job to be there wh en they emerge from the dressing room, when they do a little twirl and wait for us to tell them how grown up they have become. 8．What’s the main idea of the second paragraph?A．Friendship become complex in every period of time.B．Reasons for friendship building vary in different phases.C．Tweens begin to build friendships based on the new priorities.D．Important elements of friendship are needed in children’s life.9．What does the underlined words in paragraph 3 mean?A．Friendships are out of control.B．Tweens feel abandoned and betrayed.C．Friends move to exciting new relationships.D．Friendships change from one to another among tweens.10．What should parents do when tweens feel painful about their social contact? A．They should blame them. B．They should help to bring their children under control.C．They should be there and support them. D．They should meddle around in tween social contact.11．Which is the best title of the passage?A．Change of relationships among tweens B．Parenting in friendships among tweens C．How to build friendships among tweens D．The nature of friendships among tweensDIt is one of the greatest mysteries of nature. In case you haven’t noticed, all living things follow very definite, individual rhythms, all as regular as a clock, but what makesthem regular?Though many scientists maintain that these rhythms are the result of some outside force like gravity or radiation or both, the results of most scientific researches agree with other scientists who believe that each living thing has its own built-in biological “time clock.”Take the mystery of migration for example. Scientists can’t really explain why many species of birds migrate in the autumn even though the temperature is still summery. The birds just seem to snub the comfortable weather that they are having. When a certain time comes, they travel south by the thousand. In spring time, they migrate northwards when though there probably is snow still covering the ground when they finally arrive. Something said “go”, and they did.Animals that hibernate are obeying individual time clock, too. When their clock indicates the time to take a winter’s nap, they do, and nothing can stop them. At a certain time in the spring, they wake up and come out regardless of the weather outside.Plants appear to have yearly rhythms, such as the sprouting(发芽)of seeds, and they also have daily rhythms. Notice sometimes that plants raise their leaves in daylight and lower them at night.If you live along the California coast, you can easily observe a demonstration of this mysterious clock functioning regularly. There, from February to September, the highest tides occur exactly every fourteen and four-fifths days, and during these high tides, but at no other time, small silvery fish called grunions surf-ride a wave to the beach. There the female deposits her eggs in the sand and the male, fertilize them; then both hitch a wave-ride back to the sea. Exactly fourteen and four-fifths days later, never before or after, the tiny eggs hatch, and the high tide carries the new habits out to sea. 12．According to the passage, the mysterious rhythms result from ________.A．the influence of gravity on living speciesB．the effect of radiation on living speciesC．the influence of a mysterious outer force on living speciesD．the internal mechanism inside the living species13．The underlined word “snub” in the third paragraph probably means ________. A．fight B．ignoreC．symbolize D．criticize14．Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?A．Hibernating animals are obeying an internal time clock.B．The positioning of the leaves of some plants is due to the daily rhythms.C．The internal clock functioning is demonstrated in the reproducing habits of grunions. D．The yearly hibernation is more because of the weather influence than the biological functioning.15．The passage is mainly about ________.A．the rhythms of life B．the reasons of mysterious hibermation C．strange behaviors of species D．the timing for different events in the world of species二、七选五（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）依据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
