吉林省白城市通榆县第一中学2019_2020学年高二英语下学期第三次月考(5月)试题
吉林省白城市通榆县第一中学2019-2020学年高二英语下学期第三次月考（5月）试题一、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，共30分）AHead to one of these festivals and you'll find critically praised bands， first-rate literature and peaceful settings for enjoying fresh juice as the sun goes down．Primavera Sound， Barcelona， SpainMay 31-June 4Primavera has become the go-to festival for those who love good tunes， but can't bear the thought of a weekend's camping．Bands play at the Parc del Forum， with party goers either staying in hotels or rented apartments． This year's artists include Wild Beasts， Broken Social Scene and Japandroids．Melt， Grafenhainichen， GermanyJuly 14-16Melt's reputation as Europe's biggest party festival has been assured for years．Techno and house DJs provide lots of entertainment， fitting perfectly with the attractive setting in an industrial museum between Leipzig and Berlin．Bigger names are included， too， such as the talented Warpaint and the sleepy beats of Bonobo．Roskilde， DenmarkJune 24-July 1One of Europe's biggest festivals， Roskilde is centuries-long in music history．Big acts like Foo Fighters and The Weekend provide the main draw．It's in the outer fields where things get interesting， with street art in Graffiti City and the Ghettoblaster for some hardcore party action．Port Eliot， Cornwall， UKJuly 27-30Set in the grounds of a beautiful stately home in St Germans， Cornwall， Port Eliot is unlike any other festivals． Festival goers can explore the rooms of the attractive house， go wild swimming in the river and take part in workshops on everything from cheese-making to food-searching． Or they can simply spend time listening to the best alternative music out there． This is a relaxing festival for modern life．1.In which country can people see Wild Beasts on June 2？ ______A. Spain．B. Germany．C. Denmark．D. The UK．2.Which festival has a history of over 100 years according to the text？ ______A. Primavera Sound．B. Melt．C. Roskilde．D.

It provides party goers with hands-on experiences．D. Its host city is located between the river and the sea．BAll too often， when the children are diagnosed with a disability or serious illness，their world is filled with appointments and disappointments． They might face lengthy hospital stays and painful treatments， not to mention missed opportunities to be a kid．Madison Steiner-nicknamed "Peach"- is making a difference in these children's lives by giving them the gift of recognizing their individuality that shines through their health conditions．In 2011， she decided to put her caring on canvas（帆布）- but instead of turning to a traditional art medium， she started painting custom sneakers for children living with serious health conditions．As her giving gained strength， Steiner founded a nonprofit organization， Peach's Neet Feet， based in her home state of New Mexico． Today， with the help of dozens of artists across the US， Peach's Neet Feet provides 50 pairs of shoes to children each month． Each pair is customized（定制） for a specific child's interests and courageous fight． The organization coordinates （协调） donations with more than 20 hospitals and other nonprofit ones nationwide．Since 2011， Peach's Neet Feet has donated more than 3， 000 pairs of shoes and helped 4，000 families with other services， including care packages for children （with toys and art supplies）， necessities for families facing lengthy hospital stays，"Peach Parties" and other events to raise funds and community awareness， and a support network for children and families．In 2012， Steiner's work was honored as the winner of the Random Acts of Kindness Foundation's Extreme Kindness Challenge， which gave Peach's Neet Feet the opportunity to work with Storytellers for Good to produce a video about the shoes' impact． Steiner was a guest speaker at the Chopra Foundation Sages and Scientists Symposium 2013，and Peach's Neet Feet received the Sheckler Foundation's "Be The Change" award in May 2014． In September 2014， she spoke at the 5th annual TED&ABQ conference in Albuquerque， N．M．4.Which of the following words can best describe Peach according to the text？______A.

Company in hospital．D. A support network for sick kids．7.What does the last paragraph mainly talk about？ ______A. Steiner's ambition．B. Steiner's achievements．C. Steiner's passion to the charity．D. The activities held by "Peach Parties"．C"If you take care of the birds， you take care of most of the big environmental problems in the world．"That's what Thomas Lovejoy， a well-known biologist， says． He helped introduce the term "biological diversity" to the world． And he long ago predicted that by early in the 21st century， the Earth would start losing a surprising number of species-a prediction， unfortunately， that is turning out to be spot-on．We were taken with what Lovejoy said about birds and decided to use it as a launch pad（跳板） for marking 2018 as the Year of the Bird by National Geographic． Hopefully，this will help raise people's awareness of this problem． In this 12-month multiplatform exploration， we'll examine how our changing environment is leading to great losses among bird species around the globe． And just as important， we'll record what we can do about it．At National Geographic we've been looking at the planet's health from a bird's-eye view for a long time． This magazine has featured birds on its cover more often thanit has featured other popular creatures - at least 30 times， 13 times compared with apes． And the National Geographic Society has awarded hundreds of funds（资金） for the scientific study of birds．In 2018， we'll take our coverage of topics affecting birds to a new level． In this issue（期） we launch a year of storytelling with "Why Birds Matter"， an essay by best-selling author Jonathan Franzen． It's paired with remarkable photographs of birds created by National Geographic photographer Joel Sartore．Why is National Geographic focusing so much attention on birds？ That's just another way of asking， as Franzen does． Why do birds matter？ Among his fluent answers："They are our last， best connection to a natural world that is otherwise moving gradually away from us．"8.What does the underlined word " spot-on" in Paragraph 2 mean？ ______A. Successful．B. True．C. Absurd．D. Uncertain．9.Why is the year 2018 called the Year of Birds？ ______A. To introduce a wide diversity of birds．B. To show concern over birds' disappearance．C. To draw public attention to decreasing bird species．D. To examine the environmental influences on birds．10.What can we know about National Geographic？ ______A. It focuses more on birds than other creatures．B. It offers sums of money to research on birds．C. It's the last connection between man and nature．D. It's popular with famous biologists and authors．11.What is the best title for the text？ ______A. This Is Why Birds Are Key to ConservationB. Birds Play a Key Role in the Natural WorldC. Biologists Devote Themselves to Bird ProtectionD. It Is High Time to Take Care of the Big ProblemsDWater， or rather the lack of it， is one of the most pressing issues of our times． Given that agriculture is the largest single user of freshwater， providing farmers with new conservation techniques would go a long way． It turns out that a "miracle" power called Solid Rain has been helping farmers do exactly that for over a decade! Farmers can simply mix the power in the soil， plant the crops as he or she normally would， and add water． Solid Rain absorb the liquid and keep it under the plant，creating an underground water "lake" for the plant's roots to draw upon as needed． As a result， farmers do not have to water crops as often．A season-long study showed that farmers using the power were able to increase their crop output by an average of 300 percent． Solid Rain also received the 2013 "Ecology and Environment Award" from Mexico's Foundation．So why isn't Solid Rain a household name？ First of all， though the product has been around for over a decade， the company did a poor job at marketing it and instead relied on farmers to help spread the word． Also， Solid Rain was not approved for sale in the United States until a few years ago． As a result， many US farmers have either not heard of it or haven't yet felt the need for a water-saving product．The reason for the slower than expected demand could also be due to the fact that not all experts are sold on the idea． They say that there is no scientific proof that Solid Rain stores water or that it remains in the ground for up to a decade．The company says while Solid Rain began as a way to aid drought-stricken farmers，it can be used even when water is not a concern． Their new goal is to "save water for future generations， one drop at a time．"12.What can we infer about Solid Rain？ ______A. It can absorb and store water．B. It is similar to ice in appearance．C. It should be placed on the soil．D. It can turn into water when needed．13.How did the company advertise Solid Rain？ ______A. Through TV advertisement．B. By doing experiments in public．C. By giving away free Solid Rain．D. Through the user's recommendation．14.Why can't Solid Rain be widely used in the USA？ ______A. Its production is so small．B. The government still forbids its use now．C. Some experts doubt its effect．D. Farmers don't believe its effect．15.What does the company plan to do next according to the text？ ______A. Use Solid Rain to change the climate．B. Apply Solid Rain in daily life to save water．C. Develop other products similar to Solid Rain．D. Begin using Solid Rain to help drought-stricken farmers．二、阅读七选五（本大题共5小题，共10分）The Struggles of the Highly Intelligent People Most people regard highly intelligent people as super humans． Yet， the reality is quite different． (1) If you're a highly intelligent person， these struggles and the lack of understanding from peers can leave you feeling lonely． In order to help you feel acknowledged and understood，here are some of your most common struggles．•(2) ．It can be quite a challenge for you to be involved in small talk about ordinary things． This is because your brain is full of great ideas． Topics that interestyou likely include science， art， philosophy ，and those are rarely found in small talk．• Your job can easily bore you．The need for your brain to be constantly challenged with new greater ideas and projects can turn your once exciting job into ordinary and boring， as you exhaust all ways to be creative with it． (3) ．• You sometimes have action numbness．It's hard to be a thinker in a world that appreciates action more than great ideas． (4) ， you may at times be missing the action urge． Unfortunately， people tend to mistake this quality as laziness which leaves you feeling under-appreciated．• It's hard for you to fall in love．(5) Since you're much more cautious， analytical and independent， you tend to get mistaken for cold and high maintenance．However difficult your daily struggles may seem， you don't need to let them prevent you from growing． Go your own way!A． Small talk exhausts youB． Small talk is of no benefit to youC． As you're too consumed with different ideasD． They can also encounter numbers of difficultiesE． Finally， your quest for love is slightly more demandingF． And your boss isn't so sympathetic but just wants the job doneG． They struggle with issues somewhat different than those of the rest of the world16.

吉林省白城市通榆县第一中学2019-2020学年高二英语下学期第三次月考(5月)试题【含答案】
吉林省白城市通榆县第一中学2019-2020学年高二英语下学期第三次月考（5月）试题一、阅读理解（本大题共15小题，共30分）AHead to one of these festivals and you'll find critically praised bands， first-rate literature and peaceful settings for enjoying fresh juice as the sun goes down．Primavera Sound， Barcelona， SpainMay 31-June 4Primavera has become the go-to festival for those who love good tunes， butcan't bear the thought of a weekend's camping．Bands play at the Parc del Forum， with party goers either staying in hotels or rented apartments． This year's artists include Wild Beasts， Broken Social Scene and Japandroids．Melt， Grafenhainichen， GermanyJuly 14-16Melt's reputation as Europe's biggest party festival has been assured for years．Techno and house DJs provide lots of entertainment， fitting perfectly with the attractive setting in an industrial museum between Leipzig and Berlin．Bigger names are included， too， such as the talented Warpaint and the sleepy beats of Bonobo．Roskilde， DenmarkJune 24-July 1One of Europe's biggest festivals， Roskilde is centuries-long in music history．Big acts like Foo Fighters and The Weekend provide the main draw．It's in the outer fields where things get interesting， with street art inGraffiti City and the Ghettoblaster for some hardcore party action．Port Eliot， Cornwall， UKJuly 27-30Set in the grounds of a beautiful stately home in St Germans， Cornwall， Port Eliot is unlike any other festivals． Festival goers can explore the rooms of the attractive house， go wild swimming in the river and take part in workshops on everything from cheese-making to food-searching． Or they can simply spend time listening to the best alternative music out there． This is a relaxing festival for modern life．1.In which country can people see Wild Beasts on June 2？ ______A. Spain．B. Germany．C. Denmark．D. The UK．2.Which festival has a history of over 100 years according to the text？______A. Primavera Sound．B. Melt．C. Roskilde．D.

It provides party goers with hands-on experiences．D. Its host city is located between the river and the sea．BAll too often， when the children are diagnosed with a disability or serious illness， their world is filled with appointments and disappointments． They might face lengthy hospital stays and painful treatments， not to mention missed opportunities to be a kid．Madison Steiner-nicknamed "Peach"- is making a difference in these children'slives by giving them the gift of recognizing their individuality that shines through their health conditions．In 2011， she decided to put her caring on canvas（帆布）- but instead ofturning to a traditional art medium， she started painting custom sneakers for children living with serious health conditions．As her giving gained strength， Steiner founded a nonprofit organization，Peach's Neet Feet， based in her home state of New Mexico． Today， with the help of dozens of artists across the US， Peach's Neet Feet provides 50 pairs of shoes to children each month． Each pair is customized（定制） for a specific child's interests and courageous fight． The organization coordinates （协调）donations with more than 20 hospitals and other nonprofit ones nationwide．Since 2011， Peach's Neet Feet has donated more than 3， 000 pairs of shoes and helped 4，000 families with other services， including care packages forchildren （with toys and art supplies）， necessities for families facing lengthy hospital stays， "Peach Parties" and other events to raise funds and community awareness， and a support network for children and families．In 2012， Steiner's work was honored as the winner of the Random Acts of Kindness Foundation's Extreme Kindness Challenge， which gave Peach's Neet Feet the opportunity to work with Storytellers for Good to produce a video about the shoes' impact． Steiner was a guest speaker at the Chopra Foundation Sages and Scientists Symposium 2013， and Peach's Neet Feet received the Sheckler Foundation's "Be The Change" award in May 2014． In September 2014， she spoke at the 5th annual TED&ABQ conference in Albuquerque， N．M．4.Which of the following words can best describe Peach according to the text？______A.

Company in hospital．D. A support network for sick kids．7.What does the last paragraph mainly talk about？ ______A. Steiner's ambition．B. Steiner's achievements．C. Steiner's passion to the charity．D. The activities held by "Peach Parties"．C"If you take care of the birds， you take care of most of the big environmental problems in the world．"That's what Thomas Lovejoy， a well-known biologist， says． He helped introduce the term "biological diversity" to the world． And he long ago predicted that by early in the 21st century， the Earth would start losing a surprising number of species-a prediction， unfortunately， that is turning out to be spot-on．We were taken with what Lovejoy said about birds and decided to use it as a launch pad（跳板） for marking 2018 as the Year of the Bird by National Geographic． Hopefully， this will help raise people's awareness of this problem． In this 12-month multiplatform exploration， we'll examine how ourchanging environment is leading to great losses among bird species around the globe． And just as important， we'll record what we can do about it．At National Geographic we've been looking at the planet's health from a bird's-eye view for a long time． This magazine has featured birds on its cover more often than it has featured other popular creatures - at least 30 times， 13 times compared with apes． And the National Geographic Society has awarded hundreds of funds（资金） for the scientific study of birds．In 2018， we'll take our coverage of topics affecting birds to a new level． In this issue（期） we launch a year of storytelling with "Why Birds Matter"， an essay by best-selling author Jonathan Franzen． It's paired with remarkable photographs of birds created by National Geographic photographer Joel Sartore．Why is National Geographic focusing so much attention on birds？ That's just another way of asking， as Franzen does． Why do birds matter？ Among his fluent answers： "They are our last， best connection to a natural world that is otherwise moving gradually away from us．"8.What does the underlined word " spot-on" in Paragraph 2 mean？ ______A. Successful．B. True．C. Absurd．D. Uncertain．9.Why is the year 2018 called the Year of Birds？ ______A. To introduce a wide diversity of birds．B. To show concern over birds' disappearance．C. To draw public attention to decreasing bird species．D. To examine the environmental influences on birds．10.What can we know about National Geographic？ ______A. It focuses more on birds than other creatures．B. It offers sums of money to research on birds．C. It's the last connection between man and nature．D. It's popular with famous biologists and authors．11.What is the best title for the text？ ______A. This Is Why Birds Are Key to ConservationB. Birds Play a Key Role in the Natural WorldC. Biologists Devote Themselves to Bird ProtectionD. It Is High Time to Take Care of the Big ProblemsDWater， or rather the lack of it， is one of the most pressing issues of our times． Given that agriculture is the largest single user of freshwater，providing farmers with new conservation techniques would go a long way． It turns out that a "miracle" power called Solid Rain has been helping farmers do exactly that for over a decade!Farmers can simply mix the power in the soil， plant the crops as he or she normally would， and add water． Solid Rain absorb the liquid and keep it under the plant， creating an underground water "lake" for the plant's roots to draw upon as needed． As a result， farmers do not have to water crops as often．A season-long study showed that farmers using the power were able to increase their crop output by an average of 300 percent． Solid Rain also received the 2013 "Ecology and Environment Award" from Mexico's Foundation．So why isn't Solid Rain a household name？ First of all， though the product has been around for over a decade， the company did a poor job at marketing it and instead relied on farmers to help spread the word． Also， Solid Rain was not approved for sale in the United States until a few years ago． As a result，many US farmers have either not heard of it or haven't yet felt the need for a water-saving product．The reason for the slower than expected demand could also be due to the factthat not all experts are sold on the idea． They say that there is no scientific proof that Solid Rain stores water or that it remains in the ground for up to a decade．The company says while Solid Rain began as a way to aid drought-stricken farmers， it can be used even when water is not a concern． Their new goal is to "save water for future generations， one drop at a time．"12.What can we infer about Solid Rain？ ______A. It can absorb and store water．B. It is similar to ice in appearance．C. It should be placed on the soil．D. It can turn into water when needed．13.How did the company advertise Solid Rain？ ______A. Through TV advertisement．B. By doing experiments in public．C. By giving away free Solid Rain．D. Through the user's recommendation．14.Why can't Solid Rain be widely used in the USA？ ______A. Its production is so small．B. The government still forbids its use now．C. Some experts doubt its effect．D. Farmers don't believe its effect．15.What does the company plan to do next according to the text？ ______A. Use Solid Rain to change the climate．B. Apply Solid Rain in daily life to save water．C. Develop other products similar to Solid Rain．D.

The sudden outbreak of the novel coronavirus（新冠状病毒）left an uncommon threat． We don't know how bad it will be, nor do we know for how long it will spread． But we do know that it has already infected more than 11, 998, 020 people and killed many around the world． It has also caused serious economic damage． We need to adapt our responses to different countries and different parts of the same country in order to limit damage． Using data well is essential to such a successful response．Data is key to all successful public health programs． In Arrian, we raised tobacco taxes and made all indoor public places smoke﹣free． Smoking rates declined at first but then the decline stopped． Because we had a tracking system in place, we realized that progress had stopped． So, we produced strong and direct no tobacco ads to the public． Our program quickly reduced adult and teenager smoking, preventing more than 100, 000 deaths．Every country facing the coronavirus disease needs to strengthen their data systems to track diseases, investigate skillfully and respond fast and successfully． Fast action will save lives and save money． But building the capacity to do this isn't free． It will cost about ﹩1 to ﹩2 per person per year for at least 10 years﹣at least ﹩30 billion． That's a lot of money for public health, but it's a tiny part of the amount lost when we don't know what we need to know about health threats．Getting the data right is hardly quick and never easy, but it is always very important if we want to respond successfully, limit spread, and protect our communities and economy．（1）Which of the following can best describe the measure taken in Arrian？________A proudB unpopularC modestD effective．（2）Why does the author talk about smoking in Paragraph 2？________A To warn us that smoking is harmful．B To suggest us how to reduce smoking．C To show the significant role of data．D To protect people's physical health．．（3）What is the author's opinion on the building of the capacity of fast response？________ A It is too expensive and many countries cannot afford it． B It is worthwhile and necessary to develop such a capacity． C It supports communities and save lives and money． D It requires a tiny part of the amount lost by threats．．（4）What could be the best title for the text？________A The secret of widespread threatB The secret of successful responseC The secret of uncommon diseaseD The secret of right data．4. Smiling can infect everyone and light up our day． Well, it was at the market at 5 pm ﹣the worst time of day to shop． I had to pick up a few essentials after work: cream for coffee, eggs for breakfast and Advil for my headache．I'd been rushing all day doing jobs for people． I did not want to be shopping, to say the least． But I told myself it was my last stop before going home to put my feet up．So I scored（得到） a parking place, grabbed a bag from the trunk and found a shopping cart．The market wasn't as crowded as I had expected． I grabbed a package of linguini （意粉）and some pesto．That's when I saw her． She was sitting in a shopping cart． She looked to be maybe 9 months old． Short blond curls, blue eyes． A white lace dress and shiny black shoes．I couldn't take my eyes off her． Then I did what I always do with children: I gave her my best smile．I may have looked a bit mad, but it came from my heart．________ is a habit I formed long ago when I became a mother． It started with my first child, in that unforgettable, life﹣changing moment．At times my smile would fade to a look of fear or worry, but it never left my face for long． It always came back, even through tears．I've learned that everyone needs a smile sometimes, young and old, friends and strangers, even strangers at the market in a rush to get home．She took her time deciding just what to make of my smile． But finally, she lit up．I laughed and waved goodbye． And she blew me a kiss．That put a smile on my face that got a smile in return from every shopper I passed．I was still smiling when I got home and realized I'd forgotten to get Advil． Luckily, I didn't need it．My headache was gone．Somehow, in that simple exchange of smiles, this weary （使人厌烦的） old world became a better place． Want to change the world? Try smiling． Someone will smile backat you． I guarantee it．If you're lucky, maybe they'll even blow you a kiss and make your headache go away．（1）What can we know about the author from the first four paragraphs？________A She couldn't wait to go shopping．B She didn't know what to buy at themarket． C She wasn't satisfied with the goods in the market． D She didn't wantto go to the market at that time．．（2）What does the underlined word "That" refer to？________A Shopping in the afternoon．B Suffering from a headache．C Smiling at kids she meets．D Observing different people．．（3）What happened to the author after meeting the girl？________A She thought about her childhood．B She got blank looks from others．C She began to feel better．D She wanted to kiss the girl．．（4）What is the main purpose of this article？________A To show how to find joy in shopping．B To share her thoughts on smiling in a story．C To advise on how to cure headaches．D To show how to communicate with children．第二节（共1小题；每小题10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．选项中有两项为多余选项．5. Move towards nature when feeling down． Miracles do happen if you try． According to studies， walking among trees makes us relaxed．（1）_______ There's plenty of research showing the link between being in nature and being happy， but most of the research has focused on adults．（2）_______ Explaining the motivation behind the study， researchers note that with environmental issues such as global warming， more studies are focusing on the relationships between humans and nature to find solutions to these problems， and the future of the planet lies in the hands of children and their actions． However， few studies focus on this aspect．For the study， researchers worked with 206 children between the ages of 5 and 15． To measure how connected they were to nature， the kids were asked how much they enjoy activities like seeing wildflowers and wild animals， hearing sounds of nature and touching animals and plants．（3）_______ They also found that the more concerned children were about the environment and nature， the more likely they were to be happy．So， exposure to nature is related to active behaviors and happiness of children． What does that mean to adults？ As we all know， children usually tend to follow adults'，especially their parents' behaviors． That's to say， when adults are outside and appreciate nature， kids learn by example．（4）_______Researchers say that children need role models who can gently guide them to nature with excitement and an attitude of a lifelong learner．（5）_______ What's more important is that they spend time together with children by exploring a fun and safe environment．A． It's so adventurous going for a walk around trees．B． Researchers will study more about the connection between children's performance and nature．C． And if parents enjoy being close to nature， so will their children．D． Parents don't have to be experts in environmental science or nature studies．E． They found that the kids connected to nature were more likely to behave properly．F． In a new study， researchers wanted to see if kids get the same benefits from being outdoors．G． Even just smelling the trees helps reduce anxiety．第三部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分）第一节：完型填空（共1小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑．6.If you find it very difficult to drag yourself out of bed every morning, you probably wonder: Why on earth does school have to start so early?（1）________, there is good news to（2）________ you up—or better still, science.A law in California, passed on Oct. 13,（3）________ that public middle schools begin classes no（4）________ than 8:00 am and that high schools start no earlier than 8:30 am.

AFOUR BEST BOOKSHOPS IN LONDONLooking for something to r ead while in London?

Some experts say that scientific advances will one day enable humans to last tens of years beyond what is now seen as the natural limit of the human life span.“I think we are knocking at the door of immortality(永生),” said Michael Z ey, a Montclair State University business professor and author of two books on the future. “I think by 2075 we will see it and that’s a conservative estimate(保守的估计).”At the conference in San Francisco, Donald Louria, a professor at New Jersey Medical School in Newark said advances in using genes as well as nanotechnology(纳米技术) make it likely that humans will live in the future beyond what was possible in the past. “There is a great effort so that people can live from 120 to 180 years,” he said. “Some have suggested that there is no limit and that people could live to 200 or 300 or 500 years.”However, many scientists who specialize in aging are doubtful about it and say the human body is just not designed to last past about 120 years. Even with healthierlifestyles and less disease, they say failure of the brain and organs will finally lead all humans to death.Scientists also differ on what kind of life the super aged might live. “It remains to be seen if you pass 120, you know; could you be healthy enough to have good quality of life?” said Leonard Poon, director of the University of Georgia Gerontology Centre. “At present people who could get to that point are not in good health at all.”24.By saying “we are knocking at the door of immortality”, Michael Ze y means _________.A. they have got some ideas about living foreverB. they believe that there is no limit of livingC. they are able to make people live past the present life spanD. they are sure to find the truth about long living25. Donald Louria’s at titude towards long living is that ________.A. the human body is designed to last past about 120 yearsB. it is possible for humans to live longer in the futureC. it is still doubtful how long humans can liveD. people can live from 120 to 18026. The un derlined word “it” (in Paragraph 4) refers to ________.A. a great effortB. the conservative estimateC. the idea of living from 200 to 300 yearsD. the idea of living beyond the present life span27. What would be the best title for this text?A. No Limit for Human LifeB. Living Longer or notC. Science, Technology and Long LivingD. Healthy Lifestyle and Long LivingCPlastic-Eating WormsHumans produce more than 300 million tons of plastic every year. Almost half of that winds up in landfills(垃圾填埋场), and up to 12 million tons pollute the oceans. So far there has been no effective way to get rid of it, but a new study suggests an answermay lie in the stomachs of some hungry worms.Researchers in Spain and England recently found that the worms of the greater wax moth can break down polyethylene(聚乙烯), which accounts for 40% of plastics. The team left 100 wax worms on a commercial polyethylene shopping bag for 12 hours, and the worms consumed and broke down about 92 milligrams, or almost 3% of it. To confirm that the worms’ chewing alone was not responsible for the polyethylene breakdown, the researchers made some worms into paste(糊状物) and applied it to plastic films. 14 hours later the films had lost 13% of their mass--apparently broken down by enzymes(酶) from the worms’ stomachs. Their findings were published in Current Biology in 2017.Federica Bertocchini, co-author of the study, says the worm’s ability to break down their everyday food --- beeswax--- also allows them to break down plastic. “Wax is a complex mixture, but the basic bond in polyethylene, the carbon-carbon bond, is there as well,” she explains. “The wax worm evolved a method or system to break this bond.”Jennifer DeBruyn, a microbiologist at the University of Tennessee, who was not involved in the study, says it is not surprising that such worms can break down polyethylene. But compared with previous studies, she finds the speed of breaking down in this one exciting. The next step, DeBruyn says, will be to identify the cause of the breakdown. Is it an enzyme produced by the worm itself or by its gut microbes(肠道微生物)？Bertocchini agrees and hopes her team’s findings might one day help employ the enzyme to break down plastics in landfills. But she expects using the chemical in some kind of industrial process --- not simply “millions of worms thrown on top of the plastic.”28.What can we learn about the worms in the study?A.

Instead of feeling sorry for myself, I wanted to meet people and have new experiences so I decided to start volunteering. I searched on my computer and found a website where I could volunteer on a farm in France.My time working on a farm was a new experience for me. It was basically a free holiday as food and accommodation were provided. However, it was not my typical holiday as I had to look after fifteen horses and sleep at the top of a tower in a castle! I was an awful farmer but it did not matter because I made some great friends. However, you do not need to go abroad to volunteer. I have had plenty of adventures at home as volunteering can become a hobby. For example, I love singing so I had a good laugh waving my arms in an attempt to conduct my local choir. I did slowly improve and it felt great to conduct the choir in a concert. At university, I organized a concert for charity with my friends. It was really fun finding bands and raising money for a cause we believe in.It is true that you feel good volunteering but there are also other advantages. I once volunteered as a server at a charity sports event where the organizers gave me cupcakes to thank me for my services. I also volunteered in a charity shop so I found loads of nice cheap clothes to update my wardrobe(衣柜).While this is all fun, my favorite aspect of volunteering is creating and sharing stories. My terrible attempts at farming have given me hilarious stories to tell! Talkingto volunteers from different countries and backgrounds has also helped me learn more about the world. I feel thankful to have had so much fun with many nice people thanks to volunteering.32. Why did the author want to be volunteer?A. He wanted to taste new life and make friends.B.
