She picked up one million cigarette butts with members of her community．7.What is the text mainly about？______A. California's "Butt Lady"．B. Fighting against smoking．C. Californians health problems．D. Smoking problems in California．Laughter is part of the universal human vocabulary. All members of the human species understand it. Unlike English or French or Swahili, we don't have to learn to speak it. We re born with the capacity to laugh.Very little is known about the specific brain mechanisms responsible for laughter. Contrary to folk wisdom, most laughter is not about humor;it is about relationships.To find out when and why people laugh，I went with several assistants to local malls and recorded what happened just before people laughed. Over a 10-year period，we studied over 2，000 cases of naturally occurring laughter．We found that most laughter does not necessarily follow jokes. People may laugh after a variety of statements, such as, "Here comes Mary，" "How did you do on the test？" or "Do you have a rubber band？" These certainly aren't jokes.We believe laughter evolved from the panting （喘气的）behavior of our ancient ancestors.Today, if we tickle （使发痒）chimps, they don't laugh．But, instead, they produce a panting sound. That's the sound of ape laughter, and it's the root of human laughter. Apes laugh in the kinds of situations that lead to human laughter, like games that involve chasing. Other animals produce sounds during play，but they are so different from laughter. Rats, for example, produce high sounds during play and when tickled, but these are very different in sound from human laughter．Laughter is often positive, but it can be negative too. There's a difference between "laughing with" and "laughing at".People who laugh at others may be trying to drive them out of the group.No one has actually counted how much people of different ages laugh,but young children probably laugh the most. At ages 5 and 6 we probably laugh more than at any other times. Adults laugh less than children, probably because they play less.Work now underway will tell us more about the brain mechanisms behind laughter,how it has evolved, and why we're so susceptible to tickling.8.What was the purpose of the decade's research？______A. To prove that people laugh because of humour．B. To find out the real reason for people s laughter．C. To research people s different reaction on jokes．D. To record conversations among shoppers in malls．9.What can we learn from the text？______A. People who play more tend to laugh more．B. Apes produce high sounds when tickled．C. Scientists know the brain mechanisms responsible for laughter well．D. The situations in which apes laugh are very different from those in which humanslaugh．10.What does the underlined word "susceptible" in the last paragraph probably mean？______A. Sensitive．B. Flexible．C. Addictive．D. Reliable．11.Which of the following might be the best title for the text？______A. The Impact of LaughterB. The Meaning of LaughterC. A Big Mystery：Why Do We Laugh？D. Laughter：The Most Beautiful WordsA team of international scientists is due to set off for the world's biggest iceberg in a mission aiming to answer fundamental questions about the impact of climate change in the polar regions. The scientists, led by he British Antarctic Survey (BAS), are trying to reach a newly revealed ecosystem that had been hidden for 120, 000 years below the Larsen C ice shelf.Last year, part of the Larsen C ice shelf calved (崩解) away, forming a hugeiceberg-A68—which is four times bigger than London, and revealing life beneath for the first time. Now scientists say it is a race against time to explore these new ecosystems before they are transformed to the light. Marine biologist Dr Katrin Linse from the BAS is leading the mission."The calving of A68 provides us with a unique opportunity to study marine life as it respondsto a huge environment change, "she said. "It is important that we get there quickly before the undersea environment changes as sunlight enters the water. "Professor David Vaughan, science director at the BAs, said, "We need to be bold (大胆的) on this one. Larsen C is a long way south and there's lots of sea ice in the area, but this is important science, so we will try our best to get the team where they need to be. He said climate change had already affected the sea around Antarctica and is warming some coastal waters. "Future warming may make some habitats warm. Where these habitats support unique species that are adapted to love the cold and not the warm, those species are going to either move or die. "There is growing concern about the possible impact of climate change in the Antarctic.Earlier this month, a report revealed that melting ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica are speeding up the already fast pace of the sea level rise. The research, published by the National Academies of Science, Engineering and Medicine, said, "At the current rate, the world's ocean will be, on average, at least 60cm higher by the end of the century." However, it found that the process is accelerating, and more than three quarters of the acceleration since 1993 is due to melting ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica, the study shows.12.Why are the scientists eager to go to the iceberg?A. To study how the iceberg was formed.B. To study a newly discovered ecosystem.C. To explore a new way to prevent climate change.D. To explore the geography of the Larsen C ice shelf.13.What do the underlined words "this one" in the fourth paragraph refer to?A. The Larsen C ice shelf.B. Climate change in Antarctica.C. The A68 iceberg with the ecosystem beneath it.D. The condition of animal species in Antarctica.14.What can we learn about the A68 iceberg from the text?A. It is as big as London.B. It is part of an ice shelf in the Arctic.C. It will disappear in a very short time.D. It has uncovered an unknown ecosystem in Antarctica.15.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A. There is no need to worry about climate change in Antarctica.B. The ice sheets in Greenland and Antarctica are melting at a steady rate.C. Many creatures living in deep water will die out due to climate change.D. By 2100, the sea level will have risen to a much higher level than now.There is a large percentage of Asian people in the US．They're hard-working，respectful but strange sometimes．(1) Asian people are different from people in any other cultures．If you think you know them，you might want to think again．How are they different？When it comes to most Asian culture，respect is everything．(2) If you don't show proper respect for him，you will get some real consequences afterward and especially if he's your boss．It's something called face saving in the Asian culture．It's ridiculous sometimes but it's their culture．Sometimes their culture can come in between their relationship at work．Asian people might expect a lot of respect from their co-workers when their co-workers just see them as an equal．(3) If you're Asian，you might want to understand the American culture and even adapt to their culture if you work with them．It will be easier for you since you re in their countries．Imagine an America working in China，expecting Chinese co-workers to get along with him when he criticizes them straight out on every single matter in front of everyone，I think they will take him outside and take care of him．(4)If you're an American boss giving your Asian employee a review，you will see that they will have a problem with your negative remarks．They will think that you don't like them，disrespectful，and want to get rid of them．(5) Of course，it's not fair for you as an American boss but just expect that it can be something that is on your Asian employee's mind．A．In fact，you re just doing your job．B．So you have no choice but to trust them．C．Americans cannot get along well with Asians．D．It just doesn't work that way with Asian people．E．Americans are very different from Asian people．F．You can do anything you want but don t disrespect an Asian man．G．If you don't understand their culture，you will get some problems with them．16.

What Is Visual Language？DHotshot jet pilots are no match for cliff swallows．The birds rocket over bridges and skim over lakes，rushing forward at accelerations that would knock an Air Force．By tracking these contests with high-speed cameras，a new study gives the first，in-depth peek into avian aerodynamics （鸟类空气力学）in the wild．"The findings may even provide insight into how to design better micro air vehicles-tiny drones．This technology will be brilliantly useful，" says biomechanics expert Jim Usherwood of the United Kingdom's Royal Veterinary College in Hatfield.." High-resolution field studies like this have never been done before for birds．" For cliff swallows，the trouble starts when they return from wintering in South America to their summer homes in North America．After arrival，they seek out their old mud nests- usually located under concrete bridges and freeways-and start rebuilding their homes．But rather than hunt down a fresh supply of mud，some swallows prefer stealing supplies from their more hardworking neighbors．Others take things further and will even lay an egg or two in their neighbor's nest before taking off．Battles in the air follow if the invaders are caught in the act，and a new study takes advantage of these fights to learn how birds perform high-speed maneuvers （演习）．The team placed three cameras along a North Carolina lake crossed by a highway bridge that houses several cliff swallow nests and waited for the battles to commence．The team was surprised to learn that most of the time*chasers copied the move of fleeing invaders．Swallows also pull very hard turns to escape an enemy*with one extreme case reaching =7.8 gravity．Fighter pilots usually pass out at about 5 or 6 gravity，which is why these experiments have earned interest，and partial funding，from the Office of Naval Research．The Navy may use the findings to build better guidance systems for micro air vehicles．However，the swallows，biomechanics are complex，and now the team is simply trying to collect a few tricks．12.Why did the Usherwood carry out the studies？______A. To guide a better design of air vehicles．B. To prove the swallows are better at flying．C. To experiment with its high-speed cameras．D. To track how the swallows skim over lakes．13.What leads to the battles among the birds？______A. Sharing food．B. Occupying others' nests．C. Seizing mud for nesting．D.

Surprised．B. Disappointed．C. Puzzled．D. Frightened．5.What did the exterminator offer the author if she accepted his service？______A. A free pesticide．B. A group rate．C. An iPad for free．D.

The author is sure to phone the salesman later．C. Billy made up his mind to purchase the pesticide．D. The author had planned to buy the pesticide before Billy appeared．CThe origin of "holiday" is easy to see，coming from "holy day"，a day of particular religious significance，often celebrating the life of a saint （圣徒），during which no work was to bedone．As far back as the 11th century，"holidays"，especially the major feast days，were times of "celebration and amusement"，as the Oxford English Dictionary puts it．The number of holidays steadily increased during the Middle Ages，until a medieval Englishman would have had the luxury of 40 to 50 days a year off work，depending on where he lived，in addition to a free day on Sundays．During the Reformation，Henry VIII abolished most of the holidays partly because of the Protestant （新教徒的）suspicion of saints，but more practically，because，according to historian Eamon Duffy，"A large number of holidays were making the people poor by limiting agriculture．" The people took a different view and organized a protest march-the Pilgrimage of Grace-partly to protect their days off．Though at first the religious and festive senses of holiday were combined，the word gradually came to be used for any kind of relaxing break from work．As the word was drawing away from a religious society，the number of authorized holidays was reduced，until by 1834most workers had only four official days off a year，in addition to Sundays．Many factory workers amplified this time by staying home on "Saint Monday" to recover from what they had gotten up to the day before．By the late 19th century，employers were compromising and offering half-day Saturdays，the beginning of the "weekend"，a term first used in 1879．In 1908，an innovative mill in New England gave its employees all of Saturday off，and the practice spread widely during the Great Depression as a way to keep employment up．It took 400 years，but finally workers could enjoy as many holidays as they had in the 15th century．8.What was the word "holiday" originally intended for？______A. Economy．B. Religion．C. Entertainment．D. Politics．9.What's the main reason for Henry VIII's ending most holidays according to EamonDuffy？______A. His people required a thorough reformation．B. He didn't believe in God and the saints．C. People took no interest in the agriculture due to them．D. Too many holidays stood in the way of the agriculture．10.Which can best replace the underlined word "amplified" in paragraph 4？______A. lengthenedB. wastedC. shortenedD. guaranteed11.When did most employees get the whole Saturday off？______A. In 1879．B. In 1908．C. During the Great Depression．D. In the 15th century．DThe popular wisdom for years has been that drinking in moderation （适度）-that's one "standard" drink a day for women and two for men-is linked to a lower risk of cardiovascular （心血管的）disease．But recent studies are casting some doubt on that long-held learning．Science now says it depends on your age and drinking habits．A 2017 study of nearly 2 million British with no cardiovascular risk found that there was still a modest benefit in moderate drinking，especially for women over 55 who drank five drinks a week．Why that age？Alcohol can influence the substance in the blood in positive ways，experts say，and that's about the age when heart problems begin to occur．Also，a 2018 study found that drinking more than 100 grams of alcohol per week-equal to roughly seven standard drinks in the United States or five to six glasses of wine in theUK-increases your risk of death from all causes and in turn lowers your life expectancy．Linkswere found with different forms of cardiovascular disease，with people who drank more than 100 grams per week having a higher risk of stroke，heart failure．Another 2018 study found that consistently drinking a moderate amount of alcohol，within recommended guidelines，had a protective effect on the heart over time．Unstable drinking habits were associated with a higher risk of heart disease，which the authors reflected might indicate broader lifestyle changes，such as poor health or stress．Former drinkers were also at greater risk．Overall，however，the latest thinking is that any heart benefit may be outweighed by other health risks，such as high blood pressure，certain cancers and liver damage．Women who drink are at a higher risk for breast cancer；alcohol contributes about 6% of the overall risk，possibly because it raises certain dangerous hormones in the blood．Drinking can also increase the chance you might develop liver，mouth and oral cancers．One potential reason：Alcohol weakens our immune systems，making us more likely to inflame （发炎）-a driving force behind cancer．12.Why does moderate drinking benefit women over 55？______A. It helps them live longer than men．B. It reduces the chance of some heart problems．C. It destroys the harmful chemicals in their blood．D. It helps them recover from cardiovascular disease．13.What can we learn from paragraph 3？______A. Drinking more than 10 grams of alcohol per week is surely harmful．B. Solid links were found between the disease and the amount of alcohol．C. The lifespan varies according to amount of consumed alcohol．D. Seven standard drinks are the recommended amount of drinking in the UK．14.Who will be at a lower risk according to the 2018 study？______A. Consistent drinkers with lifestyle changes．B. Unstable drinkers with lifestyle changes．C. Consistent drinkers within recommended amount of alcohol．D. Unstable drinkers within recommended amount of alcohol．15.Which can be the best title for the text？______A. Moderate drinking habits benefit the heart．B. Moderate drinking weakens our immune systems．C. Moderate drinking can prevent cancer．D. Moderate drinking does more harm than good to health．二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）How much do you know about colors?

第一部分听力(共两节，满分30分) （略）第二部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节(共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分)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。
AMy college experience included this life-skill lesson: Drink alcohol on a full stomach. Or you will get inebriated too quickly. Of course, most college students shouldn’t be drinking at all, but we know from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism that close to 60 percent of college students aged 18 to 22 do consume alcohol, which makes harm-reducing approaches important.Unfortunately, campus authorities and researchers are reporting a practice that turns the full-stomach drinking strategy on its head: rather than filling up before a night of partying, significant numbers of students refuse to eat all day before consuming alcohol.This is a high-risk behavior called “drunkorexia,” which is one part eating disorder, one part alcoholism—a very dangerous combination for college-age students. The term drunkorexia, which can also include excessive exercise or purging before consuming alcohol, was coined about 10 years ago, and it started showing up in medical research around 2012. Drunkorexia addresses the need to be the life of the party while staying extremely thin, pointing to a flawed mind-set about body image and alcoholism among college students, mostly women.Imagine this scenario: A femal e college freshman doesn’t eat anything all day, exercises on an empty stomach, then downs five shots of tequila in less than two hours. Because there’s no food in her system to help slow the absorption of alcohol, those shots affect her rapidly, leading to inebriation and possiblypassing out, vomiting or suffering alcohol poisoning. That’s drunkorexia.Tavis Glassman, professor of health education and public health at the University of Toledo in Ohio, researches drunkorexia and worries about scenarios suc h as the one described above: “With nothing in her system, alcohol hits quickly, and that brings up the same issues as with any high-risk drinking: getting home safely, sexual assault, unintentional injury, fights, hangovers that affect class attendance and grades, and possibly ending up in emergency because the alcohol hits so hard,” he says.“Alcohol can negatively affect the liver or gastrointestinal system, it can interfere with sleep, lower the immune system and is linked to several types of cancers,” Hultin says.1. What does the underlined word “inebriated” in paragraph 1 mean?A. excitedB. overwhelmedC. addictedD. drunk2. We can infer from the passage that ____________.A. a large number of college students spend most of their nights partyingB. some college students refuse to eat before drinking alcohol to keep slimC. There is a direct link between body image and consuming alcoholD. female college student is more likely to be hurt if she drinks alcohol3. Which of the following may Tavis Glassman agree with?A. With more food in one’s system, he may suffer from the effects of alcohol slowly.B. Drinking five shots of tequila in less than two hours is the performance of drunkorexia.C. Those who don’t attend classes and have lower grades tend to be addicted to alcohol.D. Alcohol has negative effects on the immune system and may lead to several cancers.BThe first men and women came to Britain over two and a half million years ago. They were hunters and gatherers of food who used stone tools and weapons. But the British Isles only became islands separate from the rest of Europe about 8,500 years ago, when melting ice formed the English Channel!3,000 years after Britain became an island, new tribes who came by boat from the mainland introduced farming. These tribes built earthworks for protection and as tombs for their dead. Many of these man-made hills can still be seen.Later on, people learned to build stone monuments. The most amazing is Stonehenge, a circle of huge stones begun about 4,500 ye ars ago. Stonehenge is the world’s most famous prehistoric monument. We don’t know what it meant or what it was used for, though many different suggestions have been made.3,000 years ago the climate in Britain became colder and wetter than before, and people had to move down from high ground. A bit later iron started to be sued for tools and weapons instead of bronze.Knowledge of ironworking may have been brought by the Celts, a new wave of immigrants who started to arrive from southern Europe in about 500 BC.What we know about the first people in Britain has been worked out by archaeologists from the remains they left behind them. Pytheas, a Greek, was the first person who could read and write to come to Britain. His visit was in about 330 BC, over 2000 years after Stonehenge was begun. Unfortunately, what Pytheas wrote has been lost, so we don’t have any written record of Britain until the Romans came, almost 300 years after he did!4.This passage mainly tells us _______ .A.The dawn of history in BritainB.How English Channel was formedC.How the British made a living millions of years agoD.When humans appeared on the British Isles5.In this passage “the man-made hill” probably refers to ___________ .A.The small islands in BritainB.Earthworks for protection and as tombsC.The amazing StonehengeD.The farms opened up by the first man6.Why did people move to low ground 3,000 years ago?A.Because iron tools were used for farmingB.Because the climate made it unfit for man to live thereC.Because more people arrived from southern EuropeD.Because the Celts forced them to do so7.Only after ________ do people have written records about Britain.A.the arrival of the CeltsB.Stonehenge was begunC.Pytheas’s visitD.the Romans cameCDuring Amsterdam’s chaotic rush hour, nine -year-old Lotta Crok cycles to a very busy junction. “Look,” she says. “There’s traffic coming from everywhere. Four trams from four different directions. For a child on a bike that’s really confusing!”Lotta is the first junior cycle mayor in the world and her working area is the Dutch capital. You would think this challenge would be superfluous in a city known as the bicycle capital of the world. The number of bicycles in Amsterdam is estimated at 81,000 - more than the city’s 850,000 inhabitants - and 63% of the population cycle daily.But children who cycle in Amsterdam face challenges, Lotta says: “The three biggest problems for us are cars, cycling tourists and scooters (小型摩托). The cars take up too much space, the tourists are always swinging side to side and stop when you least expect it, and the scooters simply run you over.”Lotta became junior cycle mayor in June last year when she won a contest in which school children were asked to come up with plans to make cycling safer and more fun. Her idea was to add children’s bikes to the popular bike share programme.Since Lotta was appointed junior cycle mayor, she has been busy, giving interviews, opening cycling contests in the city and being a jury (评审员) member during the Amsterdam Light Parade, an event in which Amsterdammers decorate their bikes with lights.She is now planning a meeting with the city’s mayor to discuss ideas that children have come up with: “One of our proposals is a bicycle park w here children can learn how to cycle. Right now, most of us learn a it in the street, which can be quite busy. Another idea is to create an app for tourists to teach them the rules of cycling, because most of them really don’t know.”Following the success of the Amsterdam scheme, cycle mayors around the world are now planning to appoint junior colleagues. “They see it works really well,” Boerma, the senior major, says. “I talk to the parents, Lotta talks to the children. And if you look at the city through the eyes of a child, you will also make it accessible for others. A city that’s good for an eight-year-old is also good for an 88-year-old.”8. Why is a junior cycle mayor appointed in Amsterdam?A. To teach children how to ride.B. To ensure cycling is safer for children.C. To give suggestions to the city’s mayor on how to run the city.D. To organize the cycling contests in the city.9. Which word can best replace the underlined word “superfluous” in paragraph 2?A. ImportantB. UnnecessaryC. DifficultD. Valuable10. What has Lotta done since she became the bike mayor? .A. She has solved the three biggest problems for children cycling in Amsterdam.B. She has won a contest about cycling.C. She has given interviews and been a jury member during a parade.D. She has given proposals to the city mayor.11. What’s Boerma’s attitude to the junior cycle mayor?A. CautiousB. FavorableC. AmbiguousD. DisapprovingDGive yourself a test. Which way is the wind blowing? How many kinds of wildflowers can be seen from your front door? If your awareness is as sharp as it could be, you’ll have no trouble answering these questions.Most of us observed much more as children than we do as adults. A child’s day is filled with fascination, newness and wonder. Curiosity gave us all a natural awareness. But distinctions that were sharp to us as children become unclear; we are numb(麻木的）to new stimulation(刺激), new ideas. Relearning the art of seeing the world around us is quite simple, although it takes practice and requires breaking some bad habits.The first step in awakening senses is to stop predicting what we are going to see and feel before it occurs. This blocks awareness. One chilly night when I was hiking in the Rocky Mountains with some students, I mentioned that we were going to cross a mountain stream. The students began complaining about how cold it would be. We reached the stream, and they unwillingly walked ahead. They were almost knee-deep when they realized it was a hot spring. Later they all admitted they'd felt cold water at first.Another block to awareness is the obsession(痴迷) many of us have with naming things. I saw bird watchers who spotted a bird, immediately looked it up in field guides, and said, a “ruby-crowned kinglet” and checked it off. They no longer paid attention to the bird and never learned what it was doing.The pressures of “time” and “destination” are further blocks to awareness. I encountered many hikers who were headed to a distant camp-ground with just enough time to get there before dark. It seldom occurred to them to wander a bit, to take a moment to s ee what’s around them. I asked them what they’d seen. “Oh, a few birds, ” they said. They seemed bent on their destinations.Nature seems to unfold to people who watch and wait. Next time you take a walk, no matter where it is, take in all the sights, sounds and sensations. Wander in this frame of mind and you will open a new dimension to your life.12. According to Paragraph 2, compared with adults, children are more ________.A. anxious to do wonders.B. sensitive to others’ feelings.C. likely to develop unpleasant habits.D. eager to explore the world around them.13. What idea does the author convey in Paragraph 3?A. To avoid jumping to conclusions.B. To stop complaining all the time.C. To follow the teacher’s advice.D. To admit mistakes honestly.14. The bird watchers’ behavior shows that they _______.A. are very patient in their observation.B. are really fascinated by nature.C. care only about the names of birds.D. question the accuracy of the field guides.15. In the passage, the author intends to tell us we should ______.A. fill our senses to feel the wonders of the world.B. get rid of some bad habits in our daily life.C. open our mind to new things and ideas.D. try our best to protect nature.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。

Humans are better at jumping and pulling things than chimps．B. Humans' muscle strength is different from that of apes．C. Humans are heavier and stronger than chimpanzees．D. There is nothing special about human muscles．13.What contributes a lot to the strength of chimp muscles？______A. The evolution of upright walking．B. The slow-twitch fibers in their muscles．C. Most of their muscles being made of short fibers．D. The fast-twitch fibers in their muscles．14.We can infer from the text that ______ ．A. short fibers provide more energy for the muscleB. early humans needed much more energy than chimpsC. human muscles are more suited to long distance runningD. slow-twitch muscle fibers help chimps survive in the wild15.What can we conclude according to the passage？______A. Chimpanzees have much stronger muscles than us．B. Chimpanzees can Jump higher than us．C. Chimp muscle is almost the same as humans'．D. Humans can walk longer than Chimpanzces．二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）The word"phubbing"has found its way into many dictionaries．(1) Phubbing is actually a combination of the words"phone"and"snubbing"．You have ben phubbed when someone is focusing on his or her smartphone while you sit there feeling ignored．Of course adults are not the only ones doing this．Teenagers phub each other even more frequently．I have driven past high schools and seen groups of teens standing together，and instead of talking to each other，they are on their phones (2)First，of course，when you talk to someone face to face you pick up on all kinds of nonverhal signs that yon miss when you are texting．You potentially miss out on some richly emotional interactions when you are staring at a phone (3)Second，it is more than rude to lok at a phone when you are with someone．(4) Is the current generation of teens forgetting about manners？Are they unaware of how they are making others feel？Third，I worry about the consequences for teens when they are phubbing．(5) I wonder if this leaves them less alert to some conflicts，not to mention the very real possibility of their walking into some one or something．No good comes from his bad habit，so teens should try to break this habit．A．I wonder if they are sometimes texting their mothers in order to appear busy．B．This choice to interact with ones phone rather than with friends or others nearby is worrying for a number．C．Addicted to their electronic devices，they may lose interest in anything that used to attract them．D．The person standing next to you feels irrelevant and unimportant when a phone appears to more interesting than he or she is．E．Are they at the risk of mising the indication that something poblematic may be going on around them？F．These can certainly not be conveyed via text．G．Tailor-made for the digital age，the term describes snubbing（冷落）someone in favor ofa mobile phone．16.

"．这个词是为数字时代量身定做的，用来形容冷落某人而偏爱手机．该题型选项大致可分为主旨概括句（文章整体内容）、过渡性句子（文章结构）和注释性句子（上下文逻辑意义）三类．另外两个多余的干扰项也可以通过这三个特点来排除，例如主旨概括句要么过于宽泛要么以偏概全或偏离主题，过渡性句子不能反映文章的行文结构，注释性句子与上文脱节等．根据这些，我们总结出以下方法：1、先看选项．跟完形填空不一样，七选五的答案选项较少，并且给出的都是句子，因此，我们可以通过句子的完整性或者句子后面的标点符号来判断该句在文章中的位置．另外，通过阅读选项，有可能找出跟其他选项表达完全不同意思的句子，这样的话我们就可以直接将该选项排除．2、再看空前空后．由于七选五空出的是整个句子，而这些句子与句子之间，必然有一种联系，因此我们可以通过选项中某个名词或动词跟空前或空后的一致性或者相关性来确定这两个句子之间有一种关联性，从而选择正确的答案．3、注意代词或定冠词．在做这类题目的时候，一定要注意句子中出现的人称代词或者指示代词，因为我们知道，代词是指代一个名词或者一个句子的，然后通过代词在句子中所做的成分我们可以推断出它指代的句子的类型，我们要做的就是从选项中找这类句型就可以了．4、注意一些特殊疑问词．如果选项中或空前出现特殊疑问词，一定要把这句话仔细读几遍，因为对于不同特殊疑问词的回答方式是不一样的，比如对why的回答，后面要有because等表原因的词，对when的回答，后面要有表时间的状语，对where的回答，后面要有表地点的名词，对how的回答，后面要有方式状语等．5、注意一些连词．如一些表示转折的连词，but，However，yet，though，nevertheless 等，另外还有一些表示并列关系的连词如and，also，aswellas，neithernor，eitheror，notonly…butalso，ononehand…ontheotherhand等．因为这些连词可以表现句子与句子之间的关系，通过不同的连词我们可以推知句子与句子之间不同的关系．如第4题，题中出现连词or．与上文为并列关系．21.【答案】【小题1】C 【小题2】D 【小题3】B

高考英语模拟试卷一、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，共30.0分）AWHO'S WHO IN THE ZOO？Is it amazing that the WHO'S WHO IN THE ZOO makes it fun for young children to save？With the help of Standard Bank's Kidz APP and the Big Five animal friends，teaching your children about managing their cash has never been more fun．Let the WHO'S WHO IN THE ZOO show your little ones what it means to earn and save money as well as share in the enjoyment of spending their well-earned cash．ElephantAs your children use the mobile app to complete various actions-achieving savings goals，completing missions and achieving wishes-here various medals will be rewarded．Earned medals are displayed in the elephant habitat as well as locked medals still to be achieved．LeopardReward your kids with pocket money for completing ‘missions'：household chores，achievements，etc．You can create a mission for your child，or your child can request a new mission．Once created，it must be accepted．The mission needs to be completed by your child and approved by you before you can pay him or her．LionHelp your children create and fulfil wishes．Wish cards and their savings progress can be tracked from your banking app．Once their savings goal is reached，lion will inform you of their achievement．BuffaloKidz can request to withdraw cash or purchase airtime and data using their savings．RhinoRhino shows your child's latest account balance and transactions．Download the Standard Bank's Kidz APP from Apple App Store on the phone．Use the comment section to interact with other Standard Bank customers and bank consultants．1.What is the WHO'S WHO IN THE ZOO designed for？______A. Players of board games．B. Kids for self-service banking．C. Parents for online banking．D. Travelers in the zoo．2.Rewards will be paid if ______ ．A. the kids fulfil your created missionsB. your kids get enough locked medalsC. you keep the account balancedD. you approve the request via Kidz APP3.Which of the following animals is related to spending？______A. Rhino．B. Leopard．C. Lion．D. Buffalo．BWhile staring out of the window during a flight，not everyone will think carefully about the question why airplanes have rounded windows rather than square ones．Over the years，aerospace engineering has made huge steps in airplane technology，meaning planes can carry more passengers and go faster．The planes have also changed shape to increase safety-including the windows．As commercial air travel took off in the mid-20th century，airline companies began to fly at higher altitudes to lower their cost-the air density （密度）is lower up there，creating less drag（阻力）for airplanes．However，higher altitudes came with problems，like the fact human beings can't really survive at 30，000 feet．To make that possible，the cabin was changed to a cylindrical（圆柱体）shape to support the pressure inside．But at first，plane builders left in the standard square windows and this expansion meant disaster．The deHavillandComet came into fashion in the1950s．With a closed cabin，it was able to go higher and faster than other aircraft．However，where there's a corner，there's a weak spot．Windows，having four corners，have four potential weak spots，making them likely to crash under stress-such as air pressure．By curving the window，the stress that would eventually break the window corner is distributed and the chance of it breaking is reduced．Rounded shapes are also stronger and resist deformation（变形），and can thus survive the extreme differences in pressure between the inside and outside of the aircraft．Fortunately，designers figured out the lack of design pretty quick．Now we have nice，rounded airplane windows that can resist the pressure of traveling altitude．It gives being able to gaze out of your window to the world from 35，000 feet a whole new outlook，doesn't it？4.Why did airlines aim to fly at higher altitudes？______A. To increase safety of the plane．B. To help the plane to take off．C. To save money for less drag．D. To carry more passengers and go faster．5.What does the underlined words "de Havilland Comet" in Paragraph 2 refer to？______A. A planet．B. A band．C. An aircraft．D. A design．6.Which is the advantage of the rounded window？______A. It reduces the possibility of breaking up．B. It weakens the strength of air pressure．C. It increases the air pressure．D. It helps to survive the extreme weather．7.Where does this text come from？______A. A newspaper on safe driving．B. A magazine on fashion design．C. A website on survival skills．D. A science book on flying．CThe hemlock（铁杉）trees along the Wappinger Creek，New York，look healthy．However，scientist Gary Lovett says the white balls which provide protection for the bugs are created by a tiny insect．It's hard to believe the tiny bug could kill a tree．However，trees can end up with millions and millions of the pests．When there are that many，it ends up killing the tree．The bug from East Asia is slowly killing trees across the USA．The trouble-making bug is just one of many invasive（入侵的）pests that have slipped into the United States．They can hurt other living things in their new home．Many invasive pests arrive on wooden pallets piled inside shipping containers．They supportand separate goods，and keep them from sliding around．Invasive pests often tunnel into the pallets．How can we stop pests from riding on pallets？Lovett says new rules are needed．The companies that make pallets don't want more rules．Congress has added an amendment（修正案）in the 2018 Farm Bill to try and prevent this problem．However，Lovett is not hopeful it will make much of a difference．Pallets are checked by inspectors．Many are sprayed with bug-killing pesticide．"I believe in the system，" said Brent McClendon，president of The National Wooden Pallet and Container Association．He also said shipping containers are checked very carefully．Still，each year 13 million containers are shipped to the U．S．Each is full of wooden pallets．Lovett says："Inspectors can't possibly check everything．All it takes are a few bad pallets；we should get rid of wooden pallets．" He believes pallets should be made of plastic or eco-composite wood．Eco-composite wood is a mix of wood fiber and plastic．Insects cannot hide into it．One problem is that these choices cost more．They may be worth the extramoney，though．Invasive pests cost the U．S．﹩5 billion a year．Trees don't just die inforests．They also die in cities and our yards．Then，they need to be replaced．That costs money，too．8.All the statements are TRUE except that ______ ．A. pesticide has been applied to bug-killingB. invasive pests are native to Wappinger CreekC. invasive pests hide in pallets used in shippingD. the companies making pallets don't want more rules9.What can we infer from the passage？______A. Bugs can be easily spotted by eyes．B. Bugs ruin the shipping goods slowly．C. Bugs won't bother the tree if just in few numbers．D. Bugs cover trees with white soft balls for protection．10.Why does Gary Lovett want to get rid of wooden pallets？______A. Because insects mostly die in them．B. Because plastic pallets are eco-friendly．C. Because they are not worth extra money．D. Because they are the major pest carriers．11.What does the passage mainly talk about？______A. Invasive pests are harming plants in the USA．B. Effective measures have stopped the pest invasion．C. Congress contributes a lot to dealing with invasive pests．D. Ecosystem in the USA is poorly damaged by invasive woods．DHave you ever spent an afternoon in the backyard，maybe grilling or enjoying a basketball game，when suddenly you notice that everything goes quiet？There is an old phrase "calm before the storm"，often used in a situation-a quiet period just before a great activity or excitement．According to our own experience，we know there is actually calm before the storm．But what causes this calm？And is it always calm before the storm？Let's hear what scientists have to say．A period of calm happens in a particular kind of storm，the simplest kind of storm-a single-cell thunderstorm．In this type of thunderstorm，there is usually only one main updraft，which is warm，damp air and drawn from places near the ground．Storms need warm and damp airas fuel，so they typically draw that air in from surrounding environment．Storms can draw in the air that fit their need from all directions-even from the direction in which the storm is traveling．As the warm，damp air is pulled into a storm system，it leaves a low-pressure vacuum（真空）coming after．The rising air meets the cold dry air that has already existed in the storm clouds，thus the temperature of the warm，damp air drops，and the water vapour（水蒸汽）in it changes into tiny drops that are a precondition of rain．These drops accumulate and build on larger particles like dust，until they grow large enough to form raindrops．This warm，damp air keeps moving upwards，but it becomes cooler and drier during its trip through cloud．When it reaches the top of the cloud，the air gets spit out（被挤出）at the top．This air is sent rolling out over the big thunderclouds．From there，the air goes down．Warm and dry air is relatively stable，and once it covers a region，that air，in turn，causes the calm before a storm．Most thunderstorms，though，don't start with calm．That's because most are actually groups of storms with complex wind patterns．There's so much air moving up and down storm groups that the calm before the storm never happens．Instead，before the storm，it might be really windy!12.Which best fits the description of a particular kind of storm？______A. A thunderstorm with a single shape．B. A thunderstorm without strong winds．C. A storm with air drawn from every direction．D. A storm fueled by moving air from the ground．13.What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 3 refer to？______A. Cold and dry air．B. Warm and dry air．C. Cold and damp air．D. Warm and damp air．14.Which does the writer most likely agree to？______A. Presence of the calm relies on stable air．B. Not all thunderstorms start with the calm．C. The drier the air is，the bigger the storm will be．D. Storm happens without air moving up and down．15.What is the passage mainly about？______A. Causes and effects of a heavy storm．B. A brief description of a peaceful storm．C. A personal experience of a heavy storm．D. An explanation of the calm before a storm．二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）We are surrounded by messages trying to get our attention．Advertisers，politicians and other groups all try to get us to agree with them．(1) ．Propaganda is not always a bad thing，but it often hides the truth about a topic．It's very similar to advertising，whose goal is to get people to buy something，while propaganda is to change what people believe．Propaganda TechniquesTo create propaganda，a common technique is name-calling．A politician might call someone a traitor or liar，which makes the other person look bad．Another is the trend technique．People want to be on the side in the favor．(2) ．Some propaganda is based on fear．It scares people into choosing a certain side or taking action，which might not be bad．Anti-smoking campaigns are one example．They may scare people into thinking that if they smoke，they will get cancer．(3) Propaganda is used by many groups，such as businesses，politicians and thegovernment．It is spread through posters，television and radio．The Internet makes it easy to send messages to the whole world．Types of PropagandaPolitical propaganda has been around as long as there have been politicians．(4) ．People have used it for many years．War propaganda began during World War I，more than 100 years ago．To see if propaganda is saying the truth，people need to do extra work．For example，ads might always sound like they're true．But before you believe them，try to think about who created and paid for them．Find out why they did it．(5) ．A．Propaganda TargetsB．Propaganda MediumsC．Another word for this is propagandaD．So most people will agree with those politiciansE．Then，you can decide if they're being honest or notF．However，religious propaganda was actually the first official oneG．People might join someone who claims to be popular or winning16.

combed梳；smelt闻．医护人员帮John洗了脸梳了头．故选A．14．C．考查动词短语及语境理解．句意：当她要离开病房的时候，触摸着他的头发对他说的话是"放手，安心地离去吧"．let go放手；pass away去世；come on 加油；go away离开．从后文可知，几分钟后，John就去世了，所以可得知医护人员对他说的话是"放手，安心地离去吧"．let go有放手、放开之意．其余选项均不符合上下文意思，故选C．15．D．考查形容词及语境理解．句意：作为护士看见了不计其数的死亡．priceless无价的；countless无数的；considerate 体贴的； constant持续的．John死后的二十年里，作者作为护士看见了不计其数的死亡，即countless．constant表示动作的持续，不符合文意，故选D．16．C．考查名词及语境理解．句意：我看到护士为了确保临死的患者可以走得安详舒坦，做了很多工作范围之外的事情． expectations期望；ability能力；qualifications合格；exception例外．作者的实习经历讲述了医护人员对患者的关心和照顾，所以此处应该是医护人员帮助患者，做了很多工作范围之外的事情，即超出了工作的预期，故选C．17．D．考查动词及语境理解．句意：我看到护士为了确保临死的患者可以走得安详舒坦，做了很多工作范围之外的事情．pretend假装；ensure确保；believe相信；assume 假设．医护人员做出超出工作预期的事情是为了确保临死的患者可以走得安详舒坦，故选D．18．B．考查形容词及语境理解．句意：我还记得其他一些病人的脸庞，但是对John依旧记忆犹新． beautiful美丽的； scary恐怖的；pale苍白的； vivid生动的．此处描述的是作者对John的记忆，这么多年过去了，作者对John依旧记忆犹新，John的一切依旧历历在目．所以选vivid表示"生动清晰的"．前文中的beautiful是用来形容John的笑容，放在这里不合适，故选B．19．A．考查动词及语境理解．句意：他和照顾他的专业人员教会了我对待垂死患者的方式是一件非常重要的事情．bringing up抚养；looking for寻找； caring for照顾；cheering up使振奋．由作者对实习经历的描述可知医护人员对患者是进行照顾，即care for，故选A．20．D．考查动词及语境理解．句意：对待垂死患者的方式是一件非常重要的事情．trains 训练；matters重要；influences影响；works工作．作者的实习经历教导了作者：医护人员对待垂死患者的方式是一件非常重要的事情，即matter表示"要紧、重要"，故选D．本文属于叙事说理文，讲述作者当护士的时候，遇见一个叫John即将死亡的人，护士精心照顾他，使他能够走的安详平静，这也让作者领悟了：对待垂死患者的方式是一件非常重要的事情．近几年高考试题中的完形填空有新的变化，试题所涉及的知识面不断拓宽，综合难度不断提高．做完型填空首先要通读全文，了解大意．一篇完形填空的文章有许多空格，所以，必须先通读一至两遍，才能大概了解文章的内容．千万不要看一句，做一句．其次要逐句分析，前后一致．选择答案时，要考虑整个句子的内容，包括搭配、时态、语法等．答案全填完后，再通读一遍文章，检查是否通顺流畅了，用词得当，意思正确．41.【答案】【小题1】to

1）to．介词考查．《见字如面》这档电视节目正将这一保持联系的老方式带回到现代人的视野．bring…to…固定搭配．所以填to．（2）its．代词考查．《见字如面》其想法源于一档类似的英国节目Letters Live，该节目于2013年首播．故填its．（3）shows．考查上下文语篇理解，此处缺名词，feature为谓语动词，且有both修饰则应该填复数形式．所以填shows．（4）are．主谓一致就近原则考查．两档节目均无惊人的视觉效果或是常规的娱乐活动．所以填are．（5）where．连词考查．先行词在定语从句中充当状语．所以填where．（6）creativity．考查词性转换．例如，节目里有一封30年前著名画家黄永玉写给剧作家曹禺的充满激情的信件，批评他缺乏创造力．所以填creativity．（7）being read．非谓语动词考查．听信时，我们仿佛回到过去，身临其境．现在分词作hear的宾语补充说明，与下文中as if we are being sent back呼应表示正在被听．所以填being read．（8）published．非谓语动词考查．过去分词作定语修饰texts．表示与其他出版文字相比，信件中自然地流露出个人感触．所以填published．（9）naturally．副词考查．此处用副词修饰动词，naturally是副词"自然地"，所以填naturally．（10）has been committed．动词时态考查．《见字如面》从开播至今还致力于推广中国文学．由since可知此处应用现在完成时．所以填has been committed．本文为说明性记叙文，介绍电视节目《见字如面》．语法填空是通过语篇在语境中考查语法知识的运用能力，在解题前应快速浏览短文掌握大意，在读懂短文的基础上，结合短文提供的特定的语言环境去逐句分析．要解决好语法填空，离不开坚实的语法知识，有了坚实的语法知识才能对语言进行正确的分析和判断，从而答对题目．42.【答案】Last year， Zhang Pingyu paid ˄ visit

Kieran，Banbury School Pupil to ParisC. Young People Find a World of OpportunityD. Debates Help Youth with Their GradesDSharpshooters refer to those who are skilled at firing a gun and accurately hitting what they are aiming at．However，some fish are also called amazing sharpshooters．People wonder how they hit their targets without using tools？By spitting! The fish shoot so accurately that they rarely miss their target．These amazing fish are archerfish （印度射水鱼）．There are several different types of archerfish living in Southeast Asia．They spit at their dinner to catch it．To catch dinner，a fish first sets itself in a certain place，for example just below the surface of the water．It puts the tip of its mouth so it barely breaks through the water．Then，the fish waits for an unsuspecting insect to land on a leaf or branch hanging over the water．When an unsuspecting，or unknowing insect lands，the fish attacks．The fish squeezes its gill（腮）covers very rapidly，which forces water into the fish's mouth．In the roof of its mouth the fish has a groove （槽）．The fish forms the small groove and its tongue into a narrow tube by pressing its tongue up against its groove．The water forced into the fish's mouth is forcefully pushed out of the fish's moulh through the tube．Archerfish have been known to send a stream up to 5 meters （16 feet）．However，archerfish can only shoot insects up to 1-2 meters （3-6 feet）away due to their limited accuracy．When the unsuspecting insect is hit with a sudden stream of water，it is knocked into or falls into the water．Once in the water，the insect becomes dinner．Archerfish learn how to spit when they are young．They get more accurate with practice．Adult archerfish rarely miss．Within a meter，archerfish will often spring out of the water and grab an insect in their mouths．12.Paragraph 1 flinctions as a（n）______ ．A. background．B. comment．C. explanation．D. introduction．13.Which of the following is the right steps of archerfish's hunting for an insect？______a．It has its tongue pressed against the roof of its mouth．b．It gathers water into its mouth by squeezing its gill covers quickly．c．It shoots a stream of water at the insect above water．d．It stays underwater for an insect to land nearby．A. adcbB. dbacC. dbcaD. adbc14.If an insect is 3 feet away，an archerfish will often to catch it ______ ．A. jump out of the waterB. spit a kind of oily liquidC. shoot a stream of water at itD. push its tongue out of its mouth15.Archerfish can't hit insects 5meters away for the reason that ______ ．A. their eyesight is limitedB. they can't hit faraway insects preciselyC. their mouths are under the surface of waterD. the longest distance they can hit is at most 5meters二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10.0分）Many people might feel lost during a major transition（转折）in life．Life coaching，however，is the best choice for anyone who is looking for ways to get through the tough path of life．(1) Some life coaches might focus only on certain types of situations，like advancing careers，while others may be willing to help with nearly any life transition．A life coach will often act as an advisor for his clients（客户）．(2) Many times，he will also be able to look at a client's life with a fair eye and offer fresh ideas on certain situations．In doing so，the life coach will usually be able to help his client work through any problems he may face．(3) During this interview，the life coach should find out what the client's wants，needs and goals are in life．How to help each client is different to everyone，and it is a very individualized process．(4) Because of this，a life coach must develop plans based on each client's strengths，weaknesses，abilities and so on．A life coach will also usually take each client's morals and values into consideration．Some life coaches may be able to find employment with a few select universities and corporations．There are also a handful of large life coaching firms that hire life coaches as well．The majority of life coaches，however，work for themselves，opening their own life coaching practices．(5)A．Methods that work for one client may not work for another．B．A good life coach should try to satisfy all the needs of his clients．C．He is often expected to listen closely to theft concerns and problems．D．Before a life coach can help a client，he first needs an in-depth interview．E．Life coaches offer guidance to all types of people in different stages of their lives．F．Generally，there are no strict education requirements for starting a life coaching career．G．In some cases，two or more life coaches may work together and offer a wider range of services．16.

She hopes to use the language at next year's Olympic Games in Tokyo.Takamizawa was one of the more than200,00people who requested to volunteer for Tokyo's2020Games.English is not required for service, but it is a useful skill for volunteers to have.But Takamizawa had not been able to learn the language when she was young.Takamizawa said that she was in high school when World War Two started.She said,"In my second year there,English was banned because it was the enemy language."Takamizawa said her grandchildren helped persuade her that she was not too old to learn."When I talked to my grandchildren about my wish,they said,'It's not too late.We will teach you one word a day'". Natsuko is Takamizawa's granddaughter and main English teacher.Natsuko sends a new English word to her grandmother's phone every day.They also often work together directly on phrases that Takamizawa will need for the Olympics."Welcome to Tokyo,this is the Olympic stadium,how can I help you?"Takamizawa answers when asked to say an English phrase she has learned.Natsuko explains that she wanted to give her grandmother something to enjoy."I can clearly see her English is getting better.It's my joy now."The EF English Proficiency Index is a measure of the level of English spoken in a country.Japan ranks49th among countries where English is not the first language.This situation is slowly changing as younger generations welcome English.However,Takamizawa believes real change will not happen unless Japanese people become more open to the rest of the world.With around500days to go until the games begin,the whole Takamizawa family is ready to welcome the world to Tokyo.（1）（2分）Why couldn't Takamizawa learn English when she was young?A．Because English was useless.B．Because she was too young to learn English.C．Because English was forbidden to learn.D．Because she was unwilling to learn English.（2）（2分）What can we know from the third paragraph?A．Takamizawa gets strong support from her family.B．Takamizawa's grandchildren love her a lot.C．Natsuko is Takamizawa's granddaughter and only English teacher.D．Natsuko teaches Takamizawa English mainly by talking with her.（3）（2分）What does the underlined phrase"This situation"in Paragraph4refer to?A．English is not the first language in Japan.B．The level of English spoken in Japan is relatively low.C．Younger generations in Japan welcome English.D．Japanese people become open to the rest of the world.（4）（2分）What is the main idea of the passage?A．Where there is a will,there is a way.B．It is never too late to learn.C．The early bird catches the worm.D．Two heads are better than one.3．（8分）阅读理解Move over,helicopter parents."Snowplow(扫雪机)parents"are the newest reflection of an intensive(强化的)parenting style that can include parents booking their adult children haircuts,texting their college kids to wake them up so they don't sleep through a test,and even calling their kids'employers.Helicopter parenting,the practice of wandering anxiously near one's children,monitoring their every activity,is so20th century.Some rich mothers and fathers now are more like snowplows:machines moving ahead,clearing any difficulties in their children's path to success,so they don't have to suffer failure, frustration(挫折)or lose opportunities.It starts early,when parents get on wait lists for excellent preschools before their babies are born and try to make sure their kids never do anything that may frustrate them.It gets more intense when school starts:running forgotten homework to school or calling a coach to request that their children make the team.Rich parents may have more time and money to devote to making sure their children don't ever meet with failure,but it's not only rich parents practicing snowplow parenting.This intensive parenting has become the most welcome way to raise children,regardless of income,education,or race.Yes it's a parent's job to support the children,and to use their adult wisdom to prepare for the future when their children aren't mature enough to do so.That's why parents hide certain toys from babies to avoid getting angry or take away a teenager's car keys until he finishes his college applications.But snowplow parents can take it too far,some experts say.If children have never faced a difficulty, what happens when they get into the real world?"Solving problems,taking risks and overcoming frustration are key life skills,"many child development experts say,"and if parents don't let their children experience failure,the children don't acquire them."（1）（2分）What do we know about snowplow parenting?A．It appeared before helicopter parenting.B．It costs parents less than helicopter parenting.C．It was a typical phenomenon of the20th century.D．It provides more than enough services for children.（2）（2分）What does the fourth paragraph mainly say about snowplow parenting?A．Its cost.B．Its benefits.C．Its popularity.D．Its ending time.（3）（2分）Why does the author mention parents'taking away car keys?A．To show teenagers are no better than babies.B．To advise teenagers not to treat their cars as toys.C．To advise parents not to buy cars for their teenagers.D．To show it's correct to help children when necessary.（4）（2分）What's the possible result of snowplow parenting according to the experts? A．Children lacking problem-solving ability in reality.B．Children mastering more key life skills than parents.C．Children gaining great success in every aspect of life.D．Children meeting no problems or frustration after growing up.4．（8分）阅读理解A robot created by Washington State University(WSU)scientists could help elderly people with dementia(痴呆)and other limitations live independently in their own homes.The Robot Activity Support System or RAS,uses sensors installed in a WSU smart home todetermine where its residents are,what they are doing and when they need assistance with daily activities.It navigates(定位)through rooms and around obstacles to find people on its own,provides video instructions on how to do simple tasks and can even lead its owner to objects like their medication or a snack in the kitchen."RAS combines the convenience of a mobile robot with the activity detection technology of a WSU smart home to provide assistance in the moment,as the need for help is detected,"said Bryan Minor,a postdoctoral researcher in the WSU School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.Currently,an estimated50percent of adults over the age of85need assistance with every day activities such as preparing meals and taking medication and the annual cost for this assistance in the US is nearly$2trillion.With the number of adults over85expected to triple by2050,researchers hope that technologies like RAS and the WSU smart home will relieve some of the financial strain on the healthcare system by making it easier for older adults to live alone.RAS is the first robot researchers have tried to incorporate into their smart home environment.They recently published a study in the journal Cognitive Systems Research that demonstrates how RAS could make life easier for older adults struggling to live independently."While we are still in an early stage of development,our initial results with RAS have been promising,"Minor said."The next step in the research will be to test RAS'performance with a group of older adults to get a better idea of what prompts,video reminders and other preferences they have regarding the robot."（1）（2分）How does RAS serve elderly people?A．Through sensors.B．Through objects.C．Through a mobile robot.D．Through their daily activities.（2）（2分）What can we know about RAS?A．It is the first robot used in daily life.B．Its function remains to be tested.C．It can locate people and do any task.D．It can cook for owners on its own.（3）（2分）What's Minor's attitude toward the future of RAS?A．Doubtful.B．Negative.C．Optimistic.D．Uncertain.（4）（2分）What can be a suitable title for the text?A．Elderly people leave the nursing home.B．Smart Home Tests first elder-Care robot.C．RAS,the first robot to make home smart.D．Older adults have benefited from RAS.二、任务型阅读（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）(共1题；共10分)5．（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。

What can be inferred about the job of NPS Trail V olunteers?A. It is popular with everyone.B. It can be dangerous.C. It shall be completed online.D. It needs NPS working experience.C“Anything you want, anytime you need it.”The message appeared on computer screens across the country at the same time, on the same day: December 12th, at 12 p.m.. Simultaneously, important looking envelopes containing cards with the same message were hand-delivered to the offices of all the major news companies.One found its way to the desk of Chris Lin, a business reporter at The Post. The card was beautifully designed – a black background with the words printed out in crisp white letters. There was no explanation on the back, just a website address.Chris went to the website. Its style was identical to the ca rd’s and said: “Anytime: Starting Tomorrow.”The next day websites and blogs were filled with articles theorising about Anytime. Was it a shopping website like Tao Bao or Amazon? A joke? Something illegal? Anytime’s marketing had worked – it was a househol d name before it’d even made a single sale.When the opening came, that day at noon, the Anytime website suddenly had a single field that read, “What do you want?” All you had to do was type the words into that box, and then specify how quickly you wanted your item delivered: within one, ten, or twenty-four hours.Bloggers were the first to test the service. And their reviews were glowing. Within weeks, Anytime had become a part of daily life. Nobody used other delivery sites or the post anymore as Anytime was much cheaper and faster.Chris still wondered what exactly Anytime was. He tried to find out who owned the company, but it was registered in a small country that did not require such information to be made public. He did find some interesting facts, though. Anyone who challenged the company, it seemed, met with serious trouble. A government official critical of Anytime for avoiding tax was forced to leave his position after news stories suddenly appeared claiming he was dishonest. The head of another company taking Anytime to court died in a car accident just days before the case was to begin.Chris began making a list of all the people who had something terrible happen to them after opposing or criticising Anytime. By lunch, he had more than one hundred examples. Something was definitely wrong. Chris worked on his list the rest of the day, emailing people who could provide more information and looking through newspaper records. After working through the night, an exhausted Chris finally fell asleep at his desk at 4 a.m..When he woke a few hours later, there was a message flashing on his computer screen: “Stop makingtrouble.” Chris smiled. He had no intention of stopping now that he knew he was on the right track.28. What was on the front of the card sent to Chris Lin?A. An invitation to a company opening.B. The website address of a new company.C. The words “Anytime:Starting tomorrow”.D. The words “Anything you want, anytime you need it”.29. Why did the company choose to send the cards to many news reporters?A. Because it didn’t have enough money for traditional advertising.B. Because it wanted to attract the reporters as customers.C. So the reporters would write stories about the new company.D. So people would find the new company interesting.30. What did Chris’ s research suggest about Anytime?A. It may be very dangerous.B. Its popularity would soon decrease.C. It was doing business all over the world.D. It was being widely criticised by journalists.31. How did Chris feel at the end of the story?A. Scared that he would get into trouble.B. Confident that he would find the truth.C. Nervous about what the company would do.D. Satisfied that he had discovered the company’s secret.DConnecting with people has become so much easier with advancing technology. Tasks that once required a postage stamp or carrier pigeon are now as simple as tapping a name or even a face on your screen, and you’re connected. But also easier is unconsciously getting caught up in a dilemma by violating certain new r ules for communicating. A big one for some: Don’t call until you’ve texted to confirm it’s OK to call. But that’s just the beginning.“I’m usually pretty mild and not much bothers me,” said Mark Angielle, a 29-year-old office manager from White Plains, New York. But the one thing that he hates more than anything else in life is the terrible one-word message —“K.” “At the very least reply with, Got it.” he said “At least give me a few wordshere. You’re not that busy.”There are hundreds, perhaps even thousands, of others who have taken Lo social media to express their distaste for people who don’t follow the unwritten rules of digital communication.“These rules are simply a new display of a phenomenon we’ve seen in the past,” said James Ivory, professor of communication a Virginia Tech. In the same way that generations and small groups of friends have their own slang and customs, internet culture has given birth to technology-dependent beings that have their own unique set of routine.But not everyone gets the point. Unlike language, digital communication can be filled with ambiguous clues (线索、迹象) that the person on the other end of the call, text or email may or may not easily understand.“As soon as people aren’t talking face to face, the first thing that gets lost is some of the richness of the body language,” Ivory said, “People immediate ly fill that gap by using emoji (表情符号) to sum up a feeling in seconds.“There's great potential for danger,” Ivory warned. “What's considered polite in one form might be inappropriate or rude in another occasion.”32. What can you infer about Mark from Paragraph 2?A. He is a businessman with a bad temper.B. He complains about social manners.C. He can’t bear one- word messages.D. He dislike a busy business life.33. According to the text, which of the following breaks the rules for communicating?A. John says “I got it.” to his boss face to face.B. Jim calls Bill without confirming in advance.C. Mary texts Lily to make sure if she can call her.D. Jack sends “Thanks a lot” to his business friends.34. Why may people misunderstand each other during digital communication?A.
