If you want to get entertained or learn something new, here are some most exciting podcast series.Sixth SensePam Sica’s friends said she should put her dog to sleep.

During the late 1960s, Americans experienced the unexpected side effects of high productivity of industry. Factories were giving out smoke while leaded petrol were used for vehicles, making air pollution increasingly severe.What moved Senator Nelson to action was the 1969 massive oil spill (溢出) in California, which had killed about 3,500 sea birds, besides sea animals like dolphins and seals, causing great public anger. Inspired by the student antiwar movement at that time, Nelson found it a proper time to channel the energy of the students towards a fight for environmental protection. And the sure-fire way was through public pressure. Thus Earth Day was born in 1970, and public environmental awareness took center stage.On 22nd April 1970, millions of Americans took to the streets to demonstrate for a sustainable environment and thousands of students marched against the worsening environment. Different groups were now working together for a shared goal ―environmental conservation and the effort became effective. The government took tougher measures and affected businesses were forced to follow standards.As environmental issues were not just localized ones but a global concern, the year 1990 saw Earth Day reach out to many more around the world. Earth Day 1990 helped pave the way for the 1992 United Nations Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, bringing together many nations for a joint effort towards protecting the environment.For his role as founder of Earth Day, Senator Nelson was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom (1995), the highest honour in the USA, by then US President Clinton. We salute (致敬) the man, as the fight for cleaner environment continues.4.What motivated Senator Nelson to start Earth Day?A.High productivity of industry.B.Increasingly severe air pollution.C.The 1969 oil spill in the USA.D.The students’ involvement in war.5.What played an essential role in the birth of Earth Day?A. Students’ movement.B. Strict regulations.C. Government’s measures.D. Public pressure.6.In which year did Earth Day start to draw the world’s attention?A. 1970.B. 1990.C. 1992.D. 1995.7.What’s the main idea of the passage?A.The establishment of Earth Day.B.The effort of going green globally.C.Fighting for cleaner environment.D.Honoring the founder of Earth Day.Almost everyone agrees that art is important, but they disagree on whether governments, using taxpayers’ public money, should be funding it. Also, if governments do spend money on art, what artworks should they buy and for what purpose?Most governments purchase well-known artworks for public galleries, such as the Metropolitan in New York, the National Gallery in London, the Louvre in Paris and the Uffizi in Florence, which are all free to the public. Most people do not object to public money being spent on keeping great artworks available to the public eye. However, there are some types the public are often not so happy about supporting.In the 1980s when most people seemed to have lost interest in art, the Turner Prize was started in order to regain public’s attention again. This is a contemporary art award supported by taxpayers. In 1999, the Turner Prize came under great public criticism when Tracey Emin was shortlisted for the prize for her work called “My Bed”. “My Bed” was her actual bed which she had lain in for days following a relationship breakup. To some, this was a breakthrough and some visitors even jumped into the bed and rolled around. To others, it was simply a dive into the depths of human depravity (堕落).But is the kind of “work” done by Emin “art”? And should the public pay for it, especially when it is so controversial (有争议的)?Western art is certainly at a crossroads. Does it keep exploring the dark side or does it seek an ideal beauty? Perhaps the answer depends on the public at large and the values they hold. Many people were pleased when Richard Wright won the Turner Prize in 2009 with his fresco(壁画). Its artistic beauty, poetic nature and use of historic tradition might shows that society is looking for something more positive and “rooted” in its history again. If public money is spent on art, it is essential that the public play a key role in debating both art, and what art they are willing to pay for.8.Why are some galleries mentioned in Paragraph 2?A. They are well known worldwide.B. They appeal to the public.C. They offer free admission.D. They are publicly funded.9.What do we know about “My bed”?A. It’s a controversial painting.B. It caused opposing reactions.C. It seeks ideal beauty and truth.D. It goes against contemporary art. 10.Which word can best describe the public’s attitude to Wright’s fresco?A. Appreciative.B. Opposed.C. Doubtful.D. Unhappy.11.Who should have the final say on public investment in art according to the passage? A. Artists. B. The government.C.Taxpayers.D. Turner Prize winners.Victor Borge once wrote, “Laughter is the closest distance between two people.” Yet laughter isn’t always positive for relationships. Think of your friend laughing at your embarrassing mistake. This kind of unshared laughter can have the opposite effect.Now, a new study explores when laughter works as a social glue. While all genuine laughter may help us feel good, shared laughter may communicate to others that we have a similar worldview, which strengthens our relationships.Researchers at the University of North Carolina found a way to produce shared laughter to measure experimentally how it might impact a relationship with a stranger. Participants watched a funny, not-so-funny, or not-funny-at-all video while video-chatting with another same-sex participant. Unknown to them, the video chat displayed a pre-recorded clip (片段) of someone laughing the same amount for each of the two funny videos, but only smiling occasionally during the unfunny video. This produced more shared laughter in the first situation, less shared laughter in the second, and no shared laughter in the third. Afterwards, the participants then filled out questionnaires about their sense of similarity to their video partner, and how much they liked or wanted to get to know their video partner.Results showed that, across the different videos, the amount of shared laughter had consistent (一致的) effects on the participants’ sense of similarity to the video partner ―and that this, in turn, increased how much participants liked their partner and wanted tothat they see the world in the same way, and it momentarily improve their sense of connection,” says Sara Algoe, co-author of the study.How can we put these findings into practice? Algoe suggests that relationship partnersmay want to find opportunities to laugh together in order to boost closeness, especially before having difficult conversations. Likewise, shared laughter could be introduced into staff meetings to make people feel more on the same page and thus become more productive.12.What is the finding of the experiment?ughter creates distances.ughter is a reliable social glue.C.Unshared laughter has negative effect.D.Shared laughter brings closeness.13.What are the participants asked to do in the experiment?A.Record the reaction to the videos.B.Video chat with a same-sex stranger.C.Fill out questionnaires on the videos.ugh the same amount each time.14.Which is closest in meaning to the underlined phrase “affiliate with” in Paragraph 4? A. Connect with. B. Turn to. C. Agree with. D. Refer to.15.In which situation is shared laughter probably used according to Algoe?A. During a court meeting.B. After seeing a doctor.C. Before solving conflicts.D. When taking an exam.二、七选五16.Sometimes, it’s good to be bored“I am dying of boredom,” complains the young wife Yelena in Chekhov’s 1897 play Uncle Vanya. Of course, if Yelena were around today, we know what she would do: pull out her smartphone and find something fun. Today it is easy to get rid of boredom. ①________That is the finding of two fascinating recent studies. In one, researchers asked subjects to do something boring, like copying out numbers from a phone book, and then take tests of creative thinkings. The result? ②________ In the second study, subjects gave more answers to a word test than a non-bored control group after being forced to watch a dull screensaver.“An restless mind hungers for stimulation, so boredom becomes a seeking state,” says Sandi Mann, the psychologist at the University of Central Lancashire. “③________.” Parents will tell you that kids with “nothing to do” will eventually invent some fun gamesto play ― with a cardboard box, a light switch, whatever.The problem, the researchers worry, is that these days we don’t struggle to overcome these slow moments. “④________” Mann says. “This might relieve us temporarily, but it shuts down the deeper thinking.” So here is an idea: Instead of always avoiding boredom, embrace and face it. Sometimes, anyway. Mann has found she gets some of her best thinking done when she is driving her car and therefore can’t be distracted by her phone.⑤________ The good type inspires you to see what can come of it. The bad type, in contrast, tires you and makes you feel like you can’t be bothered to do anything. An important part of our modern task, then, is learning to evaluate these different types of boredom ― to distinguish the useful kind from the harmful one.A.And there is, of course, bad boredom.B.Bored subjects came up with more creative ideas.C.But what if boredom is a meaningful experience?D.These moments are a lot more valuable than expected.E.Actually, tips on getting away from boredom are countless.F.We try to kill every moment of boredom with mobile devices.G.When not satisfied with your state, you’re seeking and engaged.三、完形填空(15空)I hated that I was born with a cleft palate(腭裂). I clearly knew how ugly I looked toduring group testing. The “whisper test”, however, required a different kind of deceptionLeonard might say, maybe things like “The sky is blue.” or “Do you have breakfast?”.little girl.”17.A. bleeding B. injured C. misshapen D. smooth18.A. speech B. mood C. thought D. behaviour19.A. burned B. cut C. bitten D. rounded20.A. sufficient B. reliable C. worthwhile D. acceptable21.A. value B. desire C. ignore D. deserve22.A. encountered B. joined C. attracted D. amused23.A. mostly B. fortunately C. barely D. incredibly24.A. ugly B. outstanding C. kind D. different25.A. quitted B. cheated C. rejected D. failed26.A. follow B. permit C. request D. persuade27.A. pole B. cloth C. finger D. device28.A. insisted B. questioned C. argued D. wondered29.A. plugging B. taking C. catching D. breaking30.A. bent B. folded C. stuck D. backed31.A. desperately B. softly C. loudly D. coldly四、短文填空32.The Space-Time Painter, written by Chinese writer Hai Ya, has won the Hugo Award for Best Novelette at the 81st World Science Fiction Convention, ①________(hold) in Chengdu on October 18th to 23rd, 2023.

The restaurant, which only serves Guangdong Shunde cuisine, allows robots to cook, deliver food, place orders for diners and handle most of the work in the restaurant.“The robot chefs can actually compete with famous chefs from Shunde, which is known for its delicious dishes at home and abroad,” said a diner surnamed Chen.

A local Shunde cuisine chef surnamed Ma Huiliang said he gave the fried vegetables cooked by the robot 90 out of 100 points. But Ma said he never worries that robots would replace chefs in the future. “On the contrary, it is a liberating opportunity for chefs when robots can cook,” he said. “Chefs can focus their work on innovation and research for new food to better inherit and develop Chinese cuisine when robots can cook.” Ma added.Qiu Mi, assistant president of Country Garden Group, which runs the restaurant, said the restaurant now has 46 different kinds of robots that can do almost all the work of the restaurant, including welcoming clients, frying dishes, mixing wines, making dessert, cooking rice, operating a cloud rail system and delivering food.And all the diners can see how their food is being cooked by robots in the kitchen, which is separated by transparent glass walls from the dining hall, Qiu said.

They offer an connection to a universe that is mysterious and grand, connecting our earthly lives to the heavens. Since the earliest recorded history, the night sky has sparked our imaginations and become deeply rooted in our cultures, traditions, artwork, and in later years, has inspired the development of technology with the hope of reaching beyond our blue planet.With the development of the industrial (工业的) world, though, we have begun to lose the clarity (清晰) that thousands of generations of people and wildlife before us have enjoyed. Because of excesssive (过度) use of lighting, stars have become fainter (模糊的). For photographers hoping to capture the magic of the night sky, they must seek new places. Dark places are far from the reach of a city, and those place are becoming harder and harder to find.Thanks to conservation groups, led by the International Dark-Sky Association (IDA), we have an opportunity to improve our night skies and recapture ancient magic. By holding the International Dark-Sky week, a yearly celebration of the night sky, the IDA is helping cities, communities and families do their part in helping make skies darker. Dark skies benefit more than just nature photographers; they are important to many wildlife species that also depend on them.Here are some simple steps we all can do that are easy and inexpensive:* Change your light bulbs to a dark-sky-friendly color, the closer the light is similar to “firelight” and the further it is away from a blue or white color, the better it is for the environment.* Use a light fixture that channels the light down and instead of wide and open.* Turn your lights off before bed!12.Why does the author prefer photographing stars so much?A.They inspire the author to learn cultures and art.B.They are often paid little attention to by most people.C.They are hardly seen due to the industrial development.D.They build a close relation between universe and humans.13.How can photographers get a satisfying photo of the night sky?A.By looking for places without light.B.By turning to government for helpC.By avoiding using any light bulbs.D.By promoting industrial development14.What can we infer from passage?A.Blue and white are the dark-sky-friendly colors.B.Many species of wildlife depend on dark skies.C.Little efforts are needed to protect the night sky.D.Joint efforts are needed to regain the darker sky.15.What is the author's writing purpose?A.To highlight the value of protecting the night sky.B.To inform people of the current situation of night sky.C.To call on people to take action to protect the night skyD.To show author's great concern for the use of lightingPeople all desire to be noticed by others. Your style——the way you dress up, the way you carry yourself, the trends (趋势) you follow——plays a key role in helping your stand out from the others. 16 The following tips can help you.Be yourself.Nothing will help you stand out of the crowd more than your own features because there can beonly one you. Everyone has their own belief, their own way of thinking, their own experiences that shape their styles. 17 Copying others will make you just another face in acrowd.Keep an open mind.Open-mindedness helps you see things from a different perspective, understand others, find opportunities, and learn from others. 18 There are several styles that you should explore and determine which suits your own personality. Nobody knows what fashion you are enthusiastic about. But you should be clearly aware of your own true feelings about it.Keep up with the recent trends.Fashion is always changing. 19 As society changes, so does fashion. Changing trends reflect the changes in people’s taste. Similarly, your sense of fashion changes as you gain more experiences in life. Keeping track of the latest fashion will help you redefine your style.20 .Your attitude towards dressing can make a significant difference to your look. You can wear a very beautiful dress, but if you can't carry it with confidence, it will not look good on you. On the other hand, even an average dress looks great on people who wear it confidently. Don't wear an uncomfortable dress just because everyone or your friend is wearing it. Remember, it's okay to have your own style as long as you are confident with it.A.Take a positive attitude.B.Wear your confidence.C.What worked yesterday may not work today.D.Having an open mind can be very helpful in recognizing your style.E.Also, keeping an open mind helps you have a clear picture of yourself.F.However, self-doubt just drives many to abandon their own ways and follow what everyone else is doing.G.Simply following the fashion trends or wearing expensive clothes will not help you get a unique style.二、完形填空As I had grown up in Belgium, going to university in the UK made me feel 21 andlonely.

Computer technology helped the researchers to get most exact measurements of the volume of the front and side parts of the brain, which have something to do with intellect and feelings, and decide the human character. As we all know, the back part of the brain, which controls task like eating and breathing, does not contract with age.Contraction of front and side parts—as cells die off—was seen in some people in their thirties, but it was still not found in some sixty and seventy-year-olds.Matsuzawa concluded from his tests that there is a simple way to prevent the contraction—using the head.The findings show that contraction of the brain begins sooner in people in the country than in the towns. “Those with least possibility,” says Matsuzawa, “are lawyers, followed by university professors and doctors. White collar workers doing the same work day after day in government offices are, however, as possible to have contracting brains as the farm worker, bus driver and shop assistant.”26. The team of doctors wanted to find out _____.A. at what point people grow mentally oldB. how to make people live longerC. the size of certain people’s brainsD. which people are the most clever27.

I thought I'd hate it, but it's been really good, I've learned a lot about how to work with all kinds of people. And I'm not as shy as I was.

Someone who is born today can expect to live about thirty﹣five years longer than someone who was born in the nineteenth century. It is even thought that in the future more and more people will celebrate their hundredth birthdays. Here are some rules for a health life.Get off the sofa!Sure, it is comfortable to sit on the sofa and watch TV. But doctors say you should get off the sofa. To keep fit, you have to walk at least 10000steps every day. In the past, people's jobs required more physical effort. They often had to walk for miles every day. When farmers were working in the fields, they were keeping fit at the same time. Think about it: Do you get the same amount of exercise today as they did in the past?Eat healthy food!It is important to eat food that is fresh and natural, for example, fruit and vegetables. Fast food is not healthy. You should only have ________once in a while. Eating too much of the wrong food will harm your health.Rest while you can!When we were babies, we slept for much of the night. Teenagers do not need as much sleep as babies, but it is important for you to get about eight hours' sleep a night. At weekends, you have got more time, so use it not just for your friends, but for rest too.Do not worry, be happy!Many people believe that happiness is important for our general health. Sometimes it is not easy to be a teenager because of the difficulties of school, exams or friendships. If you are worried about something, talk to your parents or your teacher.(1) In the passage, "Get off the sofa!" means________.A We should take some exercise.B We shouldn't watch TV on the sofa.C We should get off the sofa to keep fit.D We shouldn't stay at home for a long time.(2) The underlined word "it" in the passage refers to (指代)________.A healthy food.B fast food.C natural food.D fresh food.(3) According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?________A The best rest is to spend more time with friends.B It is necessary for teenagers to get enough sleep.C Teenagers also need as much sleep as babies atnight. D Sleeping for much of the night will do harm to your health.(4) The passage is mainly about________.A how to be a happy teenager.B the importance of a healthy life.C the ways of leading a healthy life.D teenagers' common healthy problems.16. This morning I got an email from Roy. It seems that my boy really enjoys his new life at Harvard University.The email made me think of the first day when we moved into this house.Little Roy ran around the new house with great excitement and tried to move his own things into the house such as his toys, books and clothes. Suddenly his little hand knocked over a bottle of paint on the shelf. The paint made the tidy floor and white wall a terriblemess. "Oh, my God!" My wife rushed in angrily. I looked at my son, and his small face was filled with fear.I smiled and held his hand, "Take it easy, Roy.Now let's do something to make it look nice." I took out a brush." You see, Dad is a magician. I can change it into a big tree." His mother soon joined us and helped paint some flowers on the wall.We spent the whole afternoon painting and laughing. The wall became a beautiful forest with plants, birds and small animals. Blue sky and white clouds were also painted by Roy. On that day, everyone in the house knew something special happened.The night before Roy left for Harvard, he asked me if I still remembered the day when he had knocked over the paint. "Since then I've never worried about making mistakes, " he continued, "I believe I can always find out ways to solve the problems."That's for sure. Mistakes are unavoidable. Making mistakes is part of life. When we make a mistake, what we shouldn't do is to run away from it. The mistake can be valuable if we can make full use of it. In fact, our attitudes (态度) towards them may make a difference.(1)When the bottle of paint was knocked over,________.A Roy felt down and hurt himself.B the whole family became a mess.C Roy's mother cleaned the floor at once.D Roy's father did something special to Roy.(2)What did the father do with the paint?________A To give a magic show.B To teach his son to draw.C To draw a forest on the floor.D To paint some pictures on the wall.(3)How did Roy feel that whole afternoon?________A Excited but tired.B Busy but happy.C Useless and bored.D Afraid and worried.(4)From the passage,we know Roy________.A learns a lot from his father.B will become braver to face difficulties.C will try to avoid making mistakes.D has a bad relationship with his mother.(5)What does the writer mainly want to tell us in the passage?________A It is natural for a person to make mistakes.B Everyone must learn to pay for their mistakes.C We should never be afraid of making mistakes.D One's attitude towards mistakes is very important.17. Habits in RussiaThere is an old saying that says when in Rome, do as the Romans do. I learned the meaning of this when I stayed in Russia as a visiting scholar(学者).One day I invited some of my Chinese friends to a famous local restaurant in Moscow. My guests and I were excited about our meeting. We had a lively talk until the waiter told me that we were too loud. We lowered(降低)our voices.(1)_______ The waiter came over to us two more times with the same message.How bad an impression(印象)we must have left on the local people! In China,it's naturaland important for a host(主人)to make a lively atmosphere(气氛). However, in Russia and Western countries, having a meal in a public place means you must keep your voice low. You need to be polite to others.I felt bad about this.(2)_______(3)_______ My Russian friend Andrey always looks around and thinks for a while before leaving home. I asked him why he did this. "Aha," Andrey said, "In Russia, people always spend about a minute going over things and plans in their minds before leaving home.(4)_______ "Finding the differences between cultures is so much fun. I like to keep my eyes and mind open.A. But this didn't last long.B. Russians have their own special habits, too.C. Russian people are usually careful and polite.D. So they won't leave anything necessary behind.E. Luckily, people usually do not pay much attention to that in Russia.F. Even though we tried our best, it's very difficult to fight against habits.四、情景交际(本题共1小题,每小题10分,共10分)根据对话内容,从所给的七个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,使对话内容完整.(有两项为多余选项)18.

How Can You Become a Successful Learner?Everyone is born with the ability to learn. But whether or not you can do this well dependson your learning habits. Research shows that successful learners have some good habits in common.Creating an interest in what they learnStudies show that if you are interested in something, your brain(脑)is more active and it is also easier for you to pay attention to it for a long time. Good learners often connect what they need to learn with something interesting. For example, if they need to learn English and they like music or sports, they can listen to English songs or watch sports programs in English. This way they will not get bored.Practicing and learning from mistakesGood learners think about what they are good at and what they need to practicemore. Remember, "Use it or lose it." Even if you learn something well, you will forget it unless(除非)you use it. " Practice makes perfect." Good learners will keep practicing what they have learned, and they are not afraid of making mistakes. Alexander Graham Bell did not invent the telephone overnight. He succeeded by trying many times and learning from his mistakes.Developing their study skillsIt is not enough to just study hard. Good learners know the best way they can study. For example, they may take notes by writing down key words. They also look for ways to go over what they have learned. They may do this by reading their notes every day or by explaining the information to another student.Asking questionsGood learners often ask questions during or after class.They even ask each other and try to find out the answers.

AWhen you walk along a street in a big city in the United States , you may see clocks in most stores. Radio announcers give t he correct time during the day. People there think that it is imp ortant to know the time. Most Americans have watches. They want to do certain things at certain times. They do not want to be late.Not all people all over the world value time. Suppose you visi t a certain country in South America. You would find that peop le living there do not like to rush. If you had an appointment (约会)with someone, he would probably be late. He would not care for arriving on time. In some countries in South America, ev en the radio programs may not begin right on time, nor do the radio announcers think it important to announce the right time. Many people regard a clock as a machine. It seems to them t hat a person who does everything on time is controlled by a m achine. They do not want a clock or any machine to have that much power over their lives.1. There are clocks in most stores in the US cities because __ ____.A. people in the stores want to sell these clocksB. people think it important to know the timeC. bosses want to make their stores beautifulD. they needn't wear watches when they are away from hom e2. The underlined word "rush" in the passage most probably means ______.A. “run”B. “walk”C.“hurry”D. “move”3.

Most Americans own watches.BFitzgerald, a very wealthy English man, had only one child, a son, who naturally was the apple of his eye. His wife died whe n the child was in his early teens. So Fitzgerald devoted hims elf to fathering the kid. Unluckily the son died in his late teens. Meanwhile, Fitzgerald's wealth was increasing all the time. He spent a lot on art works of the masters. Later Fitzgerald hims elf became seriously ill. Before his death, he had carefully pre pared his will as to how his wealth would be settled——to sell his entire collection at an auction(拍卖).Because of the large quantity and high quality of his collection , a huge crowd of possible buyers gathered for the auction. M any of them were museum directors and private collectors ea ger to bid(出价). Before the auction, the art works were shown, among w hich was a painting of Fitzgerald's son by an unknown artist. Because of its poor quality, it received little attention.When it was time for the auction, the auctioneer gaveled(敲槌)the crowd to attention. First the lawyer read from Fitzgerald's will that the first art work to be auctioned was the painting of h is son.The poor-quality painting didn't receive any bidders except one——the old servant who had attended to the son and loved him, a nd who for emotional reasons offered the only bid.As soon as the servant bought the painting for less than one English pound, the auctioneer stopped the bidding and asked the lawyer to read again from the will. The crowd became qui et, and the lawyer read from the will: “Whoever buys the painti ng of my son gets all my collection.” Then the auction was ov er.6. Fitzgerald was __________.A. a museum directorB. a master of artC. an art collectorD. an art auctioneer7. Which of the following is TRUE according to the story?A.

Fitzgerald's will showed __________.A. his desire to fool the biddersB. his sadness at the death of his sonC. his regret of having no heir (继承人)D. his invaluable love for his son9. What helped the old servant win the whole collection of Fitz gerald's?A. No more than one pound.B. His emotion for his young master.C. Great increase of his wealth.D. His strong passion for art.10. At the result of the auction, the old man would feel more t han ______________.A. sadB. surprisedC. interestedD. expectedCWe parents often take material things for love. “I give him eve rything,” a disappointed mother complains. “New shoes, video -games, and his own TV. You’d think he’d at least show me re spect!”Of course, love and presents are related. Most parents work h ard to earn money. They want their children to have more tha n they did and have better lives. The problem is, most childre n don’t connect the things parents buy with the labor that pays for them. Children have more, but our culture——and television in particular——teaches them that more is never enough. Having more does n ot mean that a child feels loved.From a parent’s point of view, children are not thankful. But thi s has to do with their natural growth. Young children see their parents as all-mighty(万能的). If parents fail to provide what they want, it must be a matt er of choice. It’s normal for children, even school-age ones, not to be able to take another person’s point of vie w. For example, they may dislike their parents for working lon g hours, and not realize that the parent would also rather hav e more time at home.In addition to giving presents, we have to find other ways to e xpress love and create memories. Reading or telling stories to gether, making music and playing games are all ways for fami lies to spend time without spending money. Traditions like rea ding favorite poems and even snowball fights all serve the pur pose(达到目的). Most importantly, as parents, we have to learn to hold b ack some energy from our tiring jobs. When we’re present for our children, we ourselves become the presents we want to gi ve.11. The underlined word “them”( in Paragraph 2) refers to____ __________.A. the things parents buyB. parentsC. childrenD. bett er lives12. According to the passage, children______.A. want fewer presentsB. want presents rather than loveC. are taught to ask for moreD. can live better without their parents.13. We can judge from the passage that there is _________.A. a heavy job load for some parentsB. a lack of money in some familiesC. misunderstanding between parents and childrenD. love between parents and children14. The last paragraph of the passage means that______.A. our children are good presents to usB. we should spend more time with our childrenC. we ourselves need some presentsD. we should give more presents to our children15. The best title for the passage is .A. Family LifeB. Children’s EducationC. Love and PresentsD. Children and Parents第二节:任务型阅读(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。

ACarol: I started playing the cello(大提琴)when I was about eight or nine. It was great playing the cello because I was in youth orchestras and we went abroad to do tours. But anyway, when I got to university, I stopped playing. Well, there just wasn’t time and there were so many other things to do. Luckily, I took it up after my 25th birthday and joined a band.Daniel: When I was little, I thought I'd end up learning the guitar like my father, but then I decided that I wanted to have my own instrument, so I chose the trumpet (小号). I’m in the school jazz band and I'd like to be a musician when I grow up, but my dad says it’s difficult to make a living from music. But I don't want to be a lawyer like him. It’s so boring.Carmen: Nobody likes living near someone like me because when I practice, I make a lot of noise! But you have to keep practicing, don't you? Otherwise it gets more and more difficult. The trouble is, in the summer, when it’s hot, I have to open the windows, so the whole street gets to hear it if I'm not careful. I love playing the drums and I play in a fantastic band.Vince: I’ve played the guitar for as long as I can remember, but when I was tryin g to make it as a musician after school, I used to play in the Underground in London to make a bit of extra money.

Since Art History class in college, I had always admired his works and I was lucky to see a large exhibition of his works when I was in my early 30s.It was at this event that I bought a print of his painting, “Snap the Whip”. It always hung in my classroom until I retired from teaching.I thought it truly captured the freedom and fun of childhood. In the painting,a group of young boys are playing a game arm in arm on grass ground in front of a farm house. They are jumping and laughing wildly with great joy. One of the boys is falling down to the ground. They are not even wearing shoes!During my last year of teaching, there was a young woman in her first year of teaching right next door to me and we got to be good friends. She had been an art student before taking up education. Her eyes were drawn immediately to this print when she entered my room. So on my last day of teaching, after the students had left, I took the painting off the wall and walked next door and gave it to her.She was really surprised, but very glad to have it. I was delighted that she liked it and all the students she would have would treasure it as much as I had. We found the perfect place for it on one of her walls and hung it together. I was happy that she brought back this wonderful memory for me.5. Why did the author admire the painting “Snap the Whip” so much?A. He had a deep love for children and students.B.

Recognized.D. Influenced.8. How did the author feel when seeing the painting hung in the woman’s room?A. Regretful.B. Painful.C. Pleased.D. Proud.CSharing E Umbrella, a new umbrella sharing company based in Shenzhen, China, recently announced that it had lost most of the 300,000 umbrellas since it set up.China’s sharing economy has been growing rapidly, with companies offering anything from bicycles and basketballs to phone batteries for people to rent. Customers make a small deposit(押金)and get to use the thing for a daily cost, with a fine put in place for every day if they fail to return the product in time. It’s a simple business model, and market data shows that people see sharing as a cheap and convenient way to cut down waste.Zhao Shuping founded the Sharing E Umbrella, an umbrella sharing service, in April. By the end of June, he had already started in 11 major Chinese cities, including Shanghai, Nanjing and Guangzhou. While picking up the umbrellas was simple, as they were made available(可得到的)at bus and subway stations, the return system turnedout to be a different matter. “Umbrellas are different from bicycles,” Mr. Zhao told Chinese news site t . “Bikes can be parked anywhere, but with an umbrella you need something to hang it on.”So instead of bothering to return the umbrellas back to a station, a lot of people just took them home, and Sharing E Umbrella has reportedly lost track of most of the 300,000 umbrellas.

Sharing E Umbrella is a failure for ZhaoDMore than 135,000 UK drinkers will die from cancer caused by alcohol(酒精)by the year 2035, researchers say. A study by Sheffield University and Cancer ResearchUK shows that alcohol will cost the NHS (National Health Service)£53 billion over the next ten years including £2 billion on cancer.Although alcohol is known to cause many types of cancer including breast and throat, most people don’t realize the relation between alcohol and cancer. A survey of 2,100 Britons by the researchers earlier this year found nine in ten did not connect drinking with cancer. The researchers used a computer model to work out the numbers of alcohol-related cancer deaths, hospital admissions(入院)and total costs to NHS over the next 20 years.The study shows that a fifth of men and 1 in 10 women have alcohol every day—many of these are middle-aged and middle class. Researchers are very worried about this group as they believe cancer may be caused by drinking over long periods. The study shows that even if the cost stays as it is, alcohol-related cancer deaths will rise from 6,299 in 2015 to 7,097 in 2034. Alcohol will lead to 891,299 hospital admissions, up from 802,118 in 2015, and 65,005 will be caused by cancer.Earlier this year Chief Medical Officer Dame Sally Davies studied carefully the alcohol guidance(指导)for the first time in thirty years. She told people there was no safe level of drinking and advised them to drink no more than 14 units a week. But researchers say this guidance isn’t enough and want the government to increasea little price per unit of alcohol.13. What can we learn from the text?A. Alcohol will be the main cause of cancer deaths.B. More people will get away from the habit of drinking.C. The computer model can help researchers to cut down costs on cancer.D. Most people are not clear about the relation between alcohol and cancer.14. What is the researchers’ hope for the government?A. To continue to support the study.B. To put up the price of alcohol properly.C. To control alcohol-related cancer deaths.D. To study the alcohol guidance carefully.15. What may be the best title for the text?A. A Recent Study about CancerB. The Cost of the NHS on AlcoholC. The Discovery of the Causes of CancerD. Alcohol-related cancer over the Coming Years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。
