Brief Introduction
The Brooklyn Botanic Garden (BBG) was acquired by the city of Brooklyn in 1854 along with the land that is Prospect Park.
There are so many gardens on display at the BBG that is honestly hard to keep count ofthem. There’s the Japanese Hill and Pond Garden, the Osborne Garden, the Shakespeare Garden... you get the point. Each garden that is displayed will be showing off a different group of amazing plants that come m all sorts of color1 s and sizes. The Brooklyn Botanic Garden offers something for the entire family. They even have a Children’s Garden for the little ones.
Attractions
Japanese Hill and Pond Garden
One of the most frequency visited gardens at BBG, the Japanese Hill and Pond Garden is certainly a favorite among visitors. This garden features a variety of styles as well as beautiful scenery with a viewing pavilion (亭子) and a waterfall. The Shogun Lantern featured in the Japanese Hill and Pond Garden is over 500 years old. It was given to the Brooklyn Botanic Garden as a gift from the city of Tokyo.
Children’s Garden
Children have been planting plants at the Brooklyn Botanic Garden since 1914 and continue their efforts today. Currently, there are over a thousand children contributing to the Children’s Garden.
Shakespeare Garden
For those who have fallen in love with the works of Shakespeare, this will be a garden that they can truly appreciate. Over 80 plants that have been mentioned in the writing of Shakespeare currently grow in the Shakespeare Garden.

Thermoelectric generators turn waste heat into electricity without producing greenhouse gas emissions, like a free lunch. But the high cost of these devices has prevented their widespread use. Now, researchers have found a way to make cheap thermae-lectrices that work just as well. The work could pave the way for greener car engines, and other energy-generating devices.
“This looks like a very smart way to realize high performance,” says Li-Dong Zhao, a materials scientist. He notes there are still a few more steps before these materials can become high-performing. However, he says, “This will be used in the not too far future.”
Thermoelectrics are semiconductor devices placed on a hot surface. That gives them a hot side and a cool side. If a device allows the hot side to warm up the cool side, the electricity stops flowing. A device’s success at preventing this, as well as its ability to conduct electrons, feeds into a score known as the figure of merit, or ZT.
Researchers have produced thermoelectric materials with increasing ZTs. The record came in 2014 when Mercouri Kanatzidis came up with a tin selenide with a ZT of 3.1. Yet the material was too fragile to work with.
“For practical applications, it’s a non-star-ter,” Kanatzidis says.
Getting through that door will still take some time. The tin selenide the team makes is mixed with Na, creating a “p-type” material that conducts positive charges. To make working devices, researchers also need an “n-type” version to conduct negative charges.
Zhao’s team is now working on making an n-type version. Once successful, researchers should have a clear path to making a new generation of super-efficient thermoelectric genera-tors. Those could be installed everywhere from automobile exhaust pipes to water heaters and industrial smelters toscavengesome of the 65% of fossil fuel energy that winds up as waste heat.
4. The first paragraph wants to tell us________.
A. The wide use of thermoelectric generators
B. The devices of current thermoelectric generators
C. The reason why researchers make cheap thermoelectrics
D. The greener car engines that contribute to environmental protection
5. How does Li-Dong Zhao feel about cheap thermoelectric generators?
A. Indifferent.
B. Optimistic.
C. Critical.
D. Worried.
6. What do you know about the research in 2014 from paragraph 4 and 5?
A. It was far from a success for practical applications.
B. A tin selenide with a ZT of 3.1 can be easy to work with.
C. Researchers made an “n-type” version to make working devices
D. A “p-type” material made from the tin selenide conducts negative charges
7. What does the underlined word “scavenge” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Recycle.
B. Produce.
C. Clean.
D. Increase.
C
Jack was born without eyes. He was very lucky as he grew up having other kittens (young cats) to socialize (交往)with, and was used to people from the moment he was born. However, when it came time to find the kittens homes, no one knew where Jack would end up.
That’s when I got an e-mail from my friend. All she asked was “Do you still want one of the kittens? There’s one here with no eyes and no one would like to take him”. Without thinking I told her that I did want the kitten.
When we first brought him home, Jack stayed mostly in my room. After about a day he had noissues running around and climbing on everything. At times he gets lost in the house, he’ll stop. But we just call his name and talk
to him and it isn’t long before he finds his way back to us.
A few weeks after getting Jack, we got a new cat named Bear. Jack and Bear have become best friends. It doesn’t matter that he can’t see. He always knows when Bear is around. He’ll run across the yard straight to Bear and wrap his front legs around his neck in a big hug. They run after each other around and wrestle (摔跤). They’ll lie down in the grass together when tired.
Jack is truly an inspiration. I’ve owned lots of kittens in my life, but Jack is the happiest and most playful. He doesn’t feel sorry for himself. He doesn’t need pity. I think Jean, owner of Gumbo, another eyeless cat, said it best when she told me that cats don’t have disabilities; they have adaptability.
8. Why did Jack come to the author’s home?
A. The author cared for an eyeless cat.
B. The author didn’t mind whether he was blind.
C. No other young cats kept him company.
D. The author’s friend begged the author to take him home.
9. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. Jack often wrestles with Bear indoors.
B. Jack likes to play with a new eyeless cat.
C. Jack quickly adapts to the new environment.
D. Jack is good at talking and playing with people.
10. What does the underlined word “issue” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. Trouble.
B. Fun.
C. Luck.
D. Business.
11. What does the passage mainly tell us?
A. A cat has nine lives.
B. All is well that ends well.
C. God helps those who help themselves.
D. A good beginning makes a good ending.
D
On March 18, 34-year-old Lance Karlson was walking on the beach and looking for somewhere toswim in Geographe Bay when he saw what he thought was a stingray (黄貂鱼) leap from the water.
Realizing the creature was, in fact, an octopus (章鱼), he started filming it — just in time for the angry octopus to launch itself at him. He immediately felt a sharp pain across his left arm, followed by a second strike across his neck and upper back. His goggles (护目镜) fogged and the water around him turned dark with what he thought might have been octopus ink as he struggled back toward the shore.
"I was confused — it was more of a shock than a fright," said Karlson, "I might have hit on its home." Within a minute, a perfect imprint of an octopus tentacle (触手) appeared on Karlson's neck and back.
A former volunteer lifeguard, Karlson rushed back to his hotelroom to find something acidic to put on the wound. All his family could grab was Coca-Cola, which his wife poured over his back and the pain disappeared.
"The pain went away and more than anything since then, it's been more the physical hit that was painful.... The imprint on my neck is more from the physical hit, and I guess it makes complete sense when you look at the video I took," he said.
Karlson said he'd never seen an octopus that close before and watched Netflix documentary "My Octopus Teacher" after the incident to learn more about the species.
"They are beautiful creatures and I really hope this promotes more interest in octopuses as opposed to fear of them. I think this is a fascinating creature with clearly some very strong emotions just like we do as humans," he added.
12. When did the octopus attack Karlson?
A. When he was swimming in the bay.
B. When he was shooting the octopus.
C. When he was looking for some fish.
D. When he was fighting against the octopus.
13. What plays an essential role in reducing Karlson's pain?
A. The lifeguard's timely help.
B. Karson's wife's quick action.
C. The family members' efforts.
D. Karlson’s knowledge of first aid.
14. What does Karlson learn from his experience?
A. The octopus is dangerous.
B. People should get away from the octopus.
C. People need know more about the octopus.
D. The physical hit from the octopus is painful.
15. Which of the following might be the best title?
A. Pain from Strong Attack
B. First Aid for Octopus' Strike
C. Face to Face with Angry Octopus
D. Under Sea with Dangerous Creature

When I finished all of my exam, my family drove to the countryside for a holiday. On our way, my favorite scarf flew out of the window suddenly and is gone. I felt very sad, regretting that when I hadn’t kept the scarf well. Soon after, we stopped at a service station. Feel upset, I found a bench and was about to ate my sandwich when a motorcyclist pulled into the station, “Is that your blue car?” he asked me. Although I felt surprising, I nodded quickly. A man pulled out the very scarf from my backpack and handed it to me. He then returned his motorcycle and wanted to leave. I went up and repaid him thankful by giving him a hug.

内容自拟。

Dear Peter,
Recently, troubled by the painful conflict between my parents and me, I’m writing to seek for your advice.
First, they take it for granted that they could read my diary and interfere with（干涉）my social life just to protect me, making it impossible for me to make friends, though. Besides, on my entering senior high, my parents care too much for my study as if I were a robot deprived of（剥夺）any entertainment. Every time I surfed the Internet, they would shoot me angry eyes. I wonder why they are so hard on a teenager and find fault with my behavior.
Your prompt reply would be highly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Li Hua 注意：1.词数100左右；
2.可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。

51.(1). 考查名词单复数。

句意：当我完成了所有的考试，我的家人开车去乡下度假。

“exam”是可数名词。

根据“all of”可知，此处应用其复数形式。

故把exam改成exams。

(2).考查时态。

句意：在我们的路上，我最喜欢的围巾突然飞出窗外不见了。

本文讲的是过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时。

故把is改成was。

(3).考查连词。

句意：我感到很难过，后悔没有把围巾保管好。

regretting后接宾语从句，句子成分完整，无需加when。

故删除I前的when。

(4).考查现在分词。

句意：我感到心烦意乱，找了条长凳正准备吃我的三明治，这时一个骑摩托车的人把车开进了车站。

此处作状语，“Feel upset”是祈使句，不能作状语。

主语“I”与“Feel”是主谓关系，用现在分词作状语。

故把Feel改成Feeling。

(5).考查动词不定式。

句意：我感到心烦意乱，找了条长凳正准备吃我的三明治，这时一个骑摩托车的人把车开进了车站。

“be about to”中to为不定式符号，后面动词要用原形。

故把ate改成eat。

(6).考查形容词。

句意：虽然我感到很惊讶，但还是很快地点了点头。

surprising表示“令人吃惊的”，surprised 表示“感到惊讶的”。

故把surprising改成surprised。

(7).考查冠词。

句意：那人从背包里拿出那条围巾，递给我。

这里的man指上文提到的骑摩托车的人，应用定冠词。

故把A改成The。

(8). 考查代词。

句意：他从自己的背包拿出了“我”的围巾。

由下文的“handed it to me”和“giving him a hug”故将my改为his。

(9).考查介词。

句意：然后他回到摩托车上，想要离开。

此处表示“回到摩托车旁”而不是“归还摩托车”。

故在returned后加to。

(10).考查副词。

句意：我走上前去，感激地给了他一个拥抱。

根据句意，这里应用副词修饰动词repaid，故把thankful改成thankfully。

52.略。
