Single roomBA June storm dumped six inches of rain over Columbia in Missouri with little warning—causing floodwaters from rivers to burst the banks and overflow zones to be turned into ponds.When 15-year-old Dominic Viet and 16-year-old Joseph Diener passed a basketball court that had turned into a pool, they heard the terrified shouting of a young woman desperately trying to keep her head above water under the force of a current. The boys had seen the young woman swimming with a friend there before, but it was now obvious that she was drowning."The first thing that came into my mind was to get into the water," Dominic told CNN. "We didn't have time to think. Her head was barely above the water and we could see her sinking more down every second. We didn't think about the risks. We had to get her out." Lifting her up onto their shoulders, Dominic and Joseph got her ashore, where emergency services arriving at someone else's call performed first aid and rushed her to the hospital.The fire department will honor the two boys with a "Citizen Life Safety Award". Assistant Fire Chief Jerry Jenkins described the boys' act as heroic, as did Dominic's mom, who had been calling her son for some time before and was growing nervous. She sent her husband to check on his position, but when he arrived, he saw ambulances and fire trucks from the call that was meant to rescue the young woman. "I thought of the worst. He was on a bike and people weren't paying attention and my fear was that he was going to pull up and see our son on the ground," said Dominic's mom. "But then I got a text from Dominic saying 'Coming home soon, just saved a woman's life', Mom.""Floodwaters are no conditions to swim in. There can be sewage (污水) runoff, loose chemicals, downed power lines charging the current with electricity, or pieces of wood, metal, or brick, etc." warned Jerry Jenkins.4. What was the two boys' first reaction upon hearing the woman's shout?A. They were too terrified to remove.B. They performed first aid on her.C. They called emergency services.D. They risked their own lives to save her.5. Which of the following words can best describe the two boys?A. Helpful and brave.B. Humorous and polite.C. Generous and modest.D. Ambitious and gifted.6. What message does Jerry Jenkins mainly try to convey in the last paragraph?A. It is quite necessary to learn to swim.B. Floodwaters have various potential dangers.C. It is rather unpopular to swim in floodwaters.D. Knowing life-saving skills is of great importance.7. What can be the best title for the text?A. A Terrible StormB. A Special AwardC. A Drowning WomanD. Two Teenage HeroesCCats are notorious for their indifference to humans: almost any owner will testify to how readily these animals ignore us when we call them. But a new study indicates domestic cats do recognize their own names—even if they walk away when they hear them.Atsuko Saito, a behavioral scientist now at Sophia University in Tokyo, previously showed that cats can recognize their owner's voice. In her latest study, which involved 78 cats from Japanese households and a "cat café", she homed in on responses to their names.Saito and her colleagues first had owners repeatedly say four words that sounded similar to their cats' names until the animals habituated to those words and stopped responding. Next the owners said the actual names, and the researchers looked at whether individual cats (when living among other cats) appeared able to distinguish their names. The cats had more pronounced responses to their own names—meowing or moving their ears, heads or tails—than to similar words or other cats' names, according to the study, which was published in April in Scientific Reports.The researchers also had people unfamiliar to the cats speak the names. Although the felines' responses were less prominent than when their owners called them, they still appeared to recognize their names."This new study clearly shows that many cats react to their own names when spoken by their owners," says biologist John Bradshaw, who formerly studied human-animal interactions at the University of Bristol's Anthrozoology Institute and was not involved in the work. But Bradshaw says he is less convinced cats can recognize their names when spoken by someone unfamiliar. "I think that it's entirely possible that some cats are able to generalize between one human voice and another, but I'd like to see more trials before I'd say that the evidence is compelling," he says.Saito says the cats in the experiments probably "associated their names with some rewards or punishments," and she thinks it is unlikely they understand that these sounds are attached to them as individuals. "There is no evidence that cats have the ability to recognize themselves, like us," she explains. "So the recognition of their name is different from ours." Still, it may be possible to teach cats to recognize other words. Whether that could allow humans to train cats to respond to commands—as dogs readily do—is another matter.8. What did Atsuko Saito's study find about cats?A. Cats are indifferent to humans.B. Cats are sensitive to their owners' names.C. Cats can understand human language.D. Cats can make out their own names.9. What do the underlined words "habituated to" mean in Paragraph 3?A. Stuck to.B. Appealed to.C. Got used to.D. Made it to.10. What can we learn from John Bradshaw's words?A. He thinks cats can respond to strangers.B. He thinks cats can't distinguish their names.C. He thinks more evidence is needed.D. He thinks the findings fully convincing.11. What can be inferred about cats from the last paragraph?A. Cats may be trained to recognize words.B. Cats may be taught to talk to humans.C. Cats may be able to know themselves.D. Cats may be more intelligent than dogs.DI recently received an email. It began with the word "Warning". "Warning," the stranger hadwritten. "This post could be a trigger for the trying to conceive / miscarriage community." I belong to neither community, and as I clicked to read the whole story I felt an uneasy pulse of social-media sympathy—part goodness, part gossip. But it turned out that there was a surprise party with a cake and balloons. My stranger was having a baby, after much difficulty.Some will say that we should stop sharing life's milestones and comforts with online strangers. Others will say that people have the right to mark these events and display their privileges however they want. The debate whirls around and around. It's more interesting to think about the type of culture we'll continue to build out of social media's strange architecture. So, with every warning or disclaimer that we attach to our happy bulletins, we're imagining the responses of others.We've all heard the horror stories of social media. Problems like cyber-bullying and scandals have spread fears among some users. However, social media use has many positives that we are consistently overlooking. Social media makes us more social. The positive impacts of social media outweigh the negatives by allowing us to engage more with people we know, people we don't and create positive changes by a few taps on a screen.Social media allows us to be more engaged with people we already know. From my own experience, I know that the relationships I've built with other people have only been stronger because of social media by allowing me the ability to keep up with their lives regardless if I'm able to see them in person. Many of us were separated from our friends and family once we left for college, and social media effortlessly aids us in keeping those relationships.Above everything else, social media allows us to make strong and lasting relationships with people without the hesitation or fear of putting ourselves in physical danger. We can reach out to people and engage in conversation in a safe environment.12. Why does the author raise his personal experience in Paragraph 1?A. To show the negative influence that social media brings to us.B. To share the embarrassing story after receiving the e-mail.C. To set out what makes him dislike the social media.D. To introduce the topic of social media.13. It can be inferred from Paragraph 2 that people ______.A. get the definite conclusion about whether sharing with strangers online.B. will develop the new and creative ability to talk with parents.C. are prone to consider others' responses when they share happiness online.D. never share meaningful moments online with others.14. Which of the following benefits of social media is not mentioned in the passage?A. It gives us support to stay in touch with the people we already know.B. It enables us to keep sustainable and strong relationships with others.C. It drives us to move out from the comfort zone and make more new friends.D. It allows us to have the conversation with people in a safe environment.15. What is the author's attitude towards social media?A. Tolerant.B. Conservative.C. Objective.D. Supportive.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

2019黄金押题一第二部分阅读理解(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。
AIn no particular order, here are some songs on the Music app of my phone:On a Sunday Afternoon by Lighter Shade of Brown — A student of mine introduced this rap song to me all the way back in the early 1990s, when I was teaching Spanish at a local university. The story in the song takes place not too far from where I live in Los Angeles. It’s a good “driving”song, nothing complicated or “deep”.Say Something by A Great Big World — A more recent song about a couple losing contact with each other. The piano part is of very little playing but beautiful.American Pie by Don McLean — Another song from my youth in the 1980s, very popular with almost every American of my generation. It retells some of the key events of the middle 20th century, a song of happy memories of the past and wanting to return to those better times.The Weight by The Band — Another old song, originally made public in 1968, but one I didn’t hear until I was in high school more than 10 years later. I don’t understand the words to the song completely, but the feeling of the song is very comforting to me.Under the Bridge by Red Hot Chili Peppers — This Los Angeles group wrote a song that I used to listen to when I first moved to LA more than 25 years ago. I didn’t know anyone here when I first arrived. When I got bored, I used to drive up and down the major streets that cross the city from east to west, listening to this song about “the city of angels” being as “lonely as I am”. (Don’t worry! I have plenty of friends now.)语篇解读:本文是一篇应用文。

ASmall Ways You Can Donate Money To CharityThere are plenty of innovative ways that you can help people in need, even when money is tight. Here are just a few unique ways to give.Food Angel, Hong KongFood insecurity has become a global problem for families. In Hong Kong, the people behind the Food Angel program collect 45 tonnes of edible surplus food each week that grocery stores, restaurants and individuals would otherwise dispose of. That includes fresh fruits and vegetables and other perishables(易腐烂的食物) that aren’t normally accepted in food-donation boxes.The impact is significant: Volunteers make and serve around 20,000 meals and distribute more than 11,000 other meals and food packs every day.Frigos Solidaires, FranceImagine if those in need could help themselves to food with anonymity(匿名) and dignity. Frigos Solidaires, or Solidarity Fridges, was started with that aim by Dounia Mebtoul, a young restaurateur in Paris. Now, 130 fridges installed in front of places such as shops and schools offer free food to the hungry across France.Stuff A Bus, CanadaIn Edmonton, the transit service parks vehicles in front of supermarkets for its annual “Stuff a Bus” campaign each November. Volunteers collect food and cash donations from shoppers to fill buses bound for food banks. Since its start in 1995, the campaign has collected 553,000 kilograms of food and roughly half a million dollars.Rice Bucket Challenge, IndiaHeard of the Ice Bucket Challenge? You take a video of yourself dumping a bucket of ice water over your head, then nominate (指定) three more people to do the same. In some versions, the participant donates $100 if they don’t complete the challenge.“I thought it was an amazing way to raise awareness of ALS and raise funds,” recalls Manju Kalanidhi, a journalist in Hyderabad, India. But it didn’t make sense in her country, where water is too precious to waste, even for a good cause. Then in 2014, it hit her: Why not make it a Rice Bucket Challenge to fight hunger? “I gave a bucket of rice to someone in need and clicked a photo. I shared it on Facebook and said,‘This is a Rice Bucket Challenge.Why don’t you do it, too?’”Participants donate a bucket of rice to an individual or family—no, it’s not dumped—take a photo and post it on social media with a message encouraging others to do the same.1.Which one can help people in need get food without hurting their pride?A.Food Angel, Hong KongB. Frigos Solidaires, FranceC. Stuff A Bus, CanadaD. Rice Bucket Challenge, India2.What do you know about Rice Bucket Challenge in India?A.It is an amazing way to raise awareness of ALS.B.It was inspired by the Ice Bucket Challenge.C.A bucket of rice is given and dumped.D.A bucket of water is donated for a good cause.3.What’s the purpose of the text ?A.To explain how important to help people in need.B.To inspire readers to start a non-profit organization.C.To introduce some creative ways to give away.D.To appeal to readers to donate money to charity.BWhich of these ingredients have you cooked with or eaten, wild rice, rabbits or roses? Actually, they were part of Native American cuisine in the past. Sean Sherman is a chef from the Oglala Lakota tribe, who is attempting something remarkable. Through his company and his restaurant, Sherman is bringing these ingredients back into the public eye.Sean Sherman grew up on the Pine Ridge Reservation. As a reservation kid, Sherman usually didn’t have access to high-quality or tasty food. His family relied on the Commodity Supplemental Food Program, which meant canned goods, tasteless food, and powdered milk. After high school, Sherman started working for the Forest Service. As part of his job, he had to learn the names of the plants, which raised his curiosity about indigenous(本土的) plants and foods.Sherman started doing lots of research on his own, and he started his company in 2014. A few years later, Sherman opened his restaurant Owamni, where he showed native ingredients and flavors. The most significant feature of the restaurant is the native ingredients, none of which is related to European civilizations.The vibe in the restaurant is totally unique as well. There, a lot of people are really struck by it, because it’s not typical to be able to go someplace and see their native foods on the menu, see native people cooking the food and listen to native music. Therefore, it’s a wholly unique experience and it’s something that’s really special.Native cuisine allows native people to explore their histories and cultures. It supports local businesses and comes with a host of health benefits. “We should have native restaurants in every city to show the diversity and flavors of all the different tribes across North America and thus have a future where native cuisine is more widespread, and ingredients are more familiar and well known,” Sherman explains.4.When did Sean Sherman become interested in native foods?A. As he was a reservation kid.B. Before he entered high school.C. When he worked as a chef in a restaurant.D. When he was working in the forest department.5. What is the most important feature of Sherman’s restaurant?A. The ingredients used are native.B. Native music is played all the time.C. Diverse ingredients are combined in each dish.D. It is a reflection of modern native civilization.6. What does the underlined word “vibe” in paragraph 4 mean?A. Service.B. Decoration.C. Scenery.D. Atmosphere.7. Why does Sherman suggest each city should have native restaurants?A. To boost the profits of local businesses.B. To help native people to honor their history.C. To present and promote the native cuisine.D. To serve foods with various health benefits.CIn the 1950s, British historian Northcote Parkinson came up with a concept which was later known as Parkinson’s Law of Triviality(琐事). It states that the amount of time spent discussing an issue in an organization is oppositely associated withits actual importance.Parkinson’s Law of Triviality is also known as “bike-shedding”(车棚), after the story Parkinson uses to illustrate it. He asks readers to imagine a financial committee meeting to discuss a three-point agenda. The points are as follows: A proposal for a £10 million nuclear power plant; A proposal for a £350 bike shed; A proposal for a £21 annual coffee budget.What happens? The committee ends up running through the nuclear power plant proposal in little time. It’s too advanced for anyone to really dig into the details. The discussion soon moves to the bike shed. Here, everyone’s an expert. In the end, the committee runs out of time and decides to meet again to complete their analysis.Bike-shedding happens because the smaller a matter is, the more people will have an opinion on it, even when there is no genuine value to add. When something is outside our circle of competence, like a nuclear power plant, we don’t even try to express an opinion. But when something is comprehensible, everyone wants to show that they know about the topic at hand.How can we avoid bike-shedding? The main thing you can do is to have a clear purpose. Priya Parker, the author of The Art of Gathering: How We Meet and Why It Matters, says that any successful gathering needs to have a focused purpose. “Specificity,” she says, “is a crucial element.”When it comes to choosing your list of invitees, Parker writes, “if the purpose of your meeting is to make a decision, you may want to consider having fewer cooks in the kitchen.” Getting the result you want—a thoughtful, educated discussion about that power plant—depends on having the right people in the room.8. What is Parkinson’s purpose of presenting the imaginary meeting?A. To state a fact.B. To clarify a concept.C. To make a prediction.D. To introduce a new point.9. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4?A. The more you know, the less you speak.B. What is simple for you may be tough for others.C. What is important may achieve less involvement.D.The more you put in, the better your result will be.10. Which is the author’s suggestion for a successful meeting?A. Planning before the meeting.B. Getting the right people to the table.C. Spending less time on the minor issues.D. Taking different opinions into account.11. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Purpose: The Key to an Effective Meeting.B. Talent: A Crucial Element in Organizations.C. Bike Shed Effect: Less Time on Unimportant Things.D. Nuclear Power Plant: The Less-known Proposal.DGoldfish may seem like simple creatures swimming in a glass tank, but they possess a rather complicated navigation system, as discovered by researchers at the University of Oxford. Led by Dr. Adelaide Sibeaux, the study aims to shed light on our understanding of how fish, and potentially humans, estimate distances using what could be described as an internal GPS.Writing in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B, Sibeaux and colleagues report how they created a tank in their experiment with 2cm-wide black and white vertical stripes (垂直条纹) on the walls, connected by similar stripes across the floor. The team trained nine goldfish to swim a set distance of 70cm and then return to their starting point when waved at. The experiment aimed to investigate how the fish would estimate this distance without any gestures, under different patterns.Over multiple trials, the goldfish averaged a swim distance of 74cm, give or take 17cm, when presented with the vertical 2cm-wide stripes. However, when the stripe pattern was altered to either narrower vertical stripes, checked patterns, or horizontal stripes(水平条纹), the fish’s behavior changed significantly. Narrower vertical stripes led them to overestimating the distance by 36%, while horizontal stripes resulted in highly inconsistent estimations.According to the researchers, the goldfish appeared to be using an “optic (光学的) flow mechanism” based on the visual density of their environment. They kept track of how frequently the vertical pattern switched between black and white toestimate how far they had traveled. The study suggests that different optic flow mechanisms are used by mammals, including humans, based on angular (有角度的) motion of visual features. The study implies that the use of visually based distance information could have emerged early in the evolutionary timeline.“This study is novel because, despite knowing that fish respond to geometric information regarding direction and distance, we don’t know how they estimate distances,” Professor Colin Lever, although not involved in the study, said, “it’s exciting to explore fish spatial mapping because fish navigation evolved earlier and better than most mammals.”12. Why did Dr. Adelaide Sibeaux conduct the study on goldfish?A. To test the accuracy of goldfish’s internal GPS.B. To create an advanced navigation system for humans.C. To uncover how an inbuilt GPS helps calculate distances.D. To explore the relationships between goldfish and humans.13. What can we learn about the experiment?A. People gestured the goldfish throughout the experiment.B. The tank was decorated with colorful background patterns.C. Goldfish tended to underestimate distances with horizontal stripes.D. The change in the tank setting led to the goldfish’s incorrect judgment.14. What can be concluded from paragraph 4 ?A. Optic flow mechanism is unique to humans.B. Mammals developed flow mechanism long before goldfish.C. Goldfish evaluated the distance with multidimensional visual information.D. Visual density of the environment strengthened the locating ability of goldfish.15. What attitude does Professor Colin hold towards the study?A. Objective.B. Ambiguous.C. Disapproving.D. Favorable.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

W: Well, I had all sorts of ideas for new dishes, which the staff thought would sell, but the boss wasn’t interested. That’s when a friend told me about the “mobile restaurant” idea. It sounds great. M: So you can decide on your menu? W: Yes, but obviously the ones I know how to cook, then I advertise it so people can book a meal. The most amazing thing is that all the advertising is done through websites. And because you know how many people you’re cooking for, food doesn’t get wasted. M: Nice. W: Besides, I could buy all the things without risk because customers pay in advance. The greatest advantage, though, is by having ten customers at most, I don’t need to hire a waiter.

AEvery year, billions of kilograms of fresh produce are wasted in the United States. The food ends up in landfills, producing harmful greenhouse gases. Meanwhile, millions of poor Americans go hungry, without access to healthy, affordable meals. Evan Lutz is passionate about correcting that social injustice. And he combines that goal with a passion for business. "My entire life I've wanted to become a social entrepreneur, not just starting a business that made money but also one that gave back. I'm just an average guy with a passion towards making sure no food goes to waste and making sure no person's ever hungry in America and I want to do that through business."Lutz is CEO and founder of Hungry Harvest. Hungry Harvest is a business which collects and sells "ugly" produce. These are fruits and vegetables that most food companies would throw away. "If you go to a grocery store everything is growing the same exact way. Right. So all that stuff that doesn't grow the same way gets wasted and gets thrown out. And so we take all that stuff that normally get thrown out because it's too big too small in odd size of shape, we box it up into a variety boxes and we deliver to our customers once a week. We hire people that were living in homeless shelters they were really looking to get a chance in life."In January 2016, Lutz appeared on the American business comp etition television show "Shark Tank." It connects investors with entrepreneurs. Lutz sought a $50,000 investment in Hungry Harvest, in exchange for a five percent stake in his company. He got even more than he expected: $100,000 for 10 percent ownership.21. The purpose of writing paragraph 1 is to ________.A. tell us how serious the waste isB. inform us many people have not enough to eatC. remind us of the unfairness of the societyD. lead out the topic of the passage【解析】⽬的意图题。

Well, anyway, the day we were supposed to get married was sucha beautiful day that I forgot all about the wedding and went fishing instead.(Text 9)M: I have a three-week vacation coming up in a few months, and I want to take a trip. But I don’t really know where I want to go.W: Do you want to stay in this country, or would you prefer to go abroad?M: I think I’d like to visit a foreign country.

There are excellent hotels, so many interesting sights to see and plenty of night clubs.M: Well, you’ve convinced me. I’ll take a ticket to Paris. They say the night clubs are really wonderful too.(Text 10)M: Do you know when and how bicycles began? Well, in the eighteenth century, cities became larger and larger. And people moved from the countryside and small towns to the cities because therewas more work for them to do in the cities. On Sundays and holidays, they liked to leave the cities and have a good time in the countryside. But not every family had a horse. So people needed a simpler means of transportation, and inventors in many countries tried to solve this problem.Therefore, the first bicycle, which was very simple, appeared in 1790 in France. People called it “the horse on wheels”, but it was difficult to ride and it also felt uncomfortable. Then in 1861, after many improvements being made, bicycles became a practical means of transportation. And people liked bicycles, because they were not as expensive as horses, and better still, they didn’t need to be fed. However, they could go anywhere and were easy to ride.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)A21.B22.B23.C【解析】这是一篇应用文。
